August 2015 Spiritual and Magical Properties of Essential Oils, Fragrance Oils, and Herbs
A NEW MOON occurs on Friday, August 14, 2015, at 9:53 AM CST. This new moon falls in the zodiac sign of leo. The planet Venus is in alignment with the August new moon bringing soft, subtle tones of affection and love. On the 19 th of August Venus shows herself again as the morning star rises in the east.
A New Moon marks the beginning of a new cycle. The Cancer New Moon cycle ends and the Leo New Moon cycle begins. The New Moon in Leo is an excellent time for formulating some goals regarding “all things Leo”.
The keywords for this self-expressive fire sign — such things as proud, magnanimous, generous, hospitable, caring, warm, authoritative, active, and open — and consider ways to incorporate these traits into your personality.
With this potent Leo energy, we have the chance to make important changes in our lives that will benefit us well beyond this Moon cycle. It’s time to make some plans and to set the stage for reaping the rewards from our new beginnings, as little or big as they may be, in approximately two weeks’ time after the Full Moon occurs.
Venus is retrograde during the new moon adding a nostalgic memorable energy to the culmination of events during the new moon. With the energy of Leo and Venus in your corner this month strength is found to take a little risk and pursue those relationships and friendships before their lost behind the sun with venus.
New Moon Manifestation & Ritual Ceremonies That You Can Perform
• New Moon Magic: Make a fresh start, begin a project, initiate a new relationship, start a new routine.
• Create a ritual: Set an intention, write down your wishes, dreams, and desires.
• Light a white/silver candle; imagine the new moving toward you in joyful, powerful ways.
• Spend a few moments breathing in the energy of this new reality each day, making it more and more tangible.
• Work this for one moon cycle and re-access and energize on the next new moon if needed.
For this August new moon ritual, place three red candles in a triangular shape on a red cloth. Lay some white and pink flowers in the middle of the triangle of candles. On the night of the August new moon light the candles, close your eyes and inhale the passion and healing from the new moons light.
Sit and meditate on what it is you’re wanting when it comes to love and romance. It may be to bring in a partner or make a good relationship better or even to heal current ones. Send these thoughs out to the universe allowing the new moon to shift the energies in that direction. Great preparation for the up and coming super moon in August.Many blessings © psychic medium Ian Scott

We’Moon 2015: Year at a Glance for Virgo
“Revision is one of your special skills, and now it’s time to edit, analyze, and manage your very essence. You might need a complete overhaul in the realm of identity, but even making superficial changes might help you see yourself in a new light. Take advantage of the energy throughout 2016 to grow new ideas, new eyes, new wings. Focusing on the self is a bit uncomfortable for Virgos, but looking in the mirror will help you integrate all the wild experiences of the past few years and expand your ability to see yourself more accurately.”
Read the complete prediction pg 131 in We’Moon 2015: Wild Card
Sun goes into Virgo (Aug 23–Sept 23): Harvest and organize. It’s time to harvest our burgeoning gardens and harness our minds, time to bring our focus to work, learning, and healing under the Mutable Earth Virgo Sun. The mood is mercurial, intelligent, nervous, multi-tasking; we need to add confidence, heart, and focus. If you’re born under the Virgo Sun, your discriminating mind and sensitive nervous system are your gift and challenge. Born with sensitive antennae, empathy, profound mind-body connection, and an ability to see what improvements needs doing, you’re challenged to appreciate the perfection and contentment underneath all.

This August super moon ( perigee full moon or green corn moon ) is the strongest of the year so far, and the first of three full super moons on their way ( Sept 28th / Oct 27th ).

The August 29 Full Moon occurs at 2:35 PM. This is a time of those lazy days of summer when the moon is watched in its fullness and widens herself to the admiring sun. This is the month when summer kisses the moon most tender and we most often see a blush-colored or reddish hued moon
The August full moon is also known as Full Sturgeon Moon named after the Native Americans. The Sturgeon moon is remarkably named after the sturgeons of fish available around the Great Lakes, however the tribes in the southern part of the Americas name it the Full Red moon because of the heat the moon seems red and hazy. In European nations it was the named Green corn moon after the corns appear to have green leaves and grains are at its highest peaks.
What is a Supermoon?
This August brings a “perigee” full Moon. This is the time each month when the Moon is nearest to Earth in its orbit. In other words, the full Moon coincides with perigee this August.
When this happens, there are some physical effects, such as elevated tides. All full Moons raise the Earth’s tides; however, a full Moon at perigee elevates tides further.
In recent years, the term “Supermoon” has become popular. It’s just a catchy way to say “perigee full Moon.” In fact, there will be three Supermoons before the end of the year—in August, September and October.
When the Moon is full, the pull linking of the Moon on one side of the earth and the Sun following creates and unbalanced draw and as humans since we are 80% water it many have a great affect on our own bodily water levels including the earths atmosphere.
This is also known as the second moon of Shawnodese, Spirit Keeper of the South is the Ripe Berries Moon position on the Native American Medicine Wheel. Iron and garnet are the mineral totems for this moon, raspberry is the plant totem, and the sturgeon is the animal totem. The color is red, and the Thunderbird clan influences the position.
Iron teaches people in this position about their strength and garnet shows them their heart is the source of that strength. From the raspberry they learn about their sweetness and the thorns they project to protect this part of themselves from other people. The sturgeon shows them their depth and their need to teach. The Ripe Berries Moon teaches them how to work from the heart center, how to demonstrate affection, how to face fears, and how to develop leadership abilities. This moon helps develop courage and power. People experiencing the sturgeon energy need to guard against impulsiveness, arrogance, and a tendency to dominate any scenario.
All of Creation is related. ~White Buffalo Calf Woman, Lakota Sioux
Things To Do During A Full Moon!
Start With:
- Cleansing Your Spirit
- Clean out closets and drawers
- Clean off the clutter around your sleeping area
- Clean out old papers and receipts
You can take your time and do this cleaning over the next few weeks. It will benefit you enormously on your spiritual path.
I feel that all full moons are a special time for us to connect to the Great Spirit as well as the moon. Do something special in honor of this full moon.
Full Moon Blessings,
