Moon in Leo: Playing by Heart

With your Moon in Leo, you may have experienced a bit of glamour around your mother, or other primary caregiver. Life may have been a party whenever she entered the room. On the other hand, a Leo Moon can indicate a mother who never grew up. The shadow side of this Mother Moon tends toward arrogance and melodrama. It may be that you had to vie for attention and love. Whatever the case, early childhood experiences made you crave big life and big love, giving you a glimpse of the ways you might tap into your own inner resource and unleash the Lion within.

Throughout your childhood, you may have learned that the way to get love was by expressing yourself -- whether that meant grabbing the spotlight or joyfully sharing your ideas with others. This rich and fiery emotional inheritance provides you with the tools to encourage others to be whoever they are and open up to their own dramatic sides. You are incredibly affectionate and can be loyal to a fault. You want everyone to feel special and to create relationships full of romance and play. Your own instincts for flair help the people in your life tap into greater joy and celebrate the artistry inherent in all walks of life.

Early childhood patterns may have created a need within you to experience relationships as exciting and dramatic. This can lead you to balk at commitment once the initial thrill is gone. "Falling in love" is often more appealing than being in a relationship. A sense of boredom may lead you to outrageous behaviors. Playing the field is one thing, but there's another word for that these days: player. Sometimes, your need to feel special manifests as the attention-seeker who steals everyone's thunder and makes others feel unimportant except as admirers or attendants to the queen/king. Be mindful of behavior that one-ups what someone is expressing to you. "Oh, you're afraid of spiders? Well, I am so afraid of them, that once I crashed my car into a building because one was crawling on my leg." That sort of thing.

The other side of this golden coin is your inherent generosity and great big Lion heart. The key to your art of loving is emitting the radiance of the Sun, which comes naturally through you when you allow for others to be special in their own ways. Giving yourself time for artistic exploration and play is essential to feeding your Moon. Everyone in your life will be much happier if you are being creative. When you try to hide your light under a bushel, you end up resenting the people you're trying to protect from your fire. When you demand that others bow down to your glory, you miss out on the joy of giving someone else the chance to shine. Trust that by giving in to your creative side and cultivating your natural flair, others will see the real you and appreciate your enthusiasm for life.

Moon in Aries: Reclaiming Wilderness

With the Moon in Aries, your mother or other primary caregiver may have been a powerful protector in your childhood. Expressing anger may have caused much family turmoil, but withholding it was just as dangerous as letting it out. You may have felt you had to compete for affection. Whether through friendly encouragement or outright intimidation, these experiences taught you to be your own person and not to let anything get in the way of what you want. You may have taken the brunt of some pretty harsh expectations of achievement and success.

In this way, you inherited a tricky mixture to balance in your relationships. You do know what you want, and aren't afraid to ask for it. Although this can look selfish to others, it is because of your natural sensitivity to others and a strong intuition that you are able to make such demands from life. When you tap into the core knowledge that you have a unique gift to bring the world, and are the master of your own destiny, you let go of having to be right and enforce your rules on others. Just like a seed bursting forth from fertile soil in the spring, the mighty power that directs you also connects you to others. Its power is the essence of life itself.

You may have an unconscious expectation for friends, partners and other loved ones to know what they want and take it -- or to let you do it for them. Being unassertive may be seen as weakness or deficiency, and a lack of action frustrates the Aries Moon. Other times, you may be looking for clues about who you are in the other person -- attaching to another then becomes a matter of self-preservation; they are a part of your identity. If they fail, you feel like a failure for choosing them. You do need someone who is as strong as you are, so they can meet the challenges of life with vitality and brilliance. Just remember that strength comes in many different flavors, sizes and colors.

The key to your art of loving is to accept your own wild nature and work with it consciously. When you embrace your inner strength, you can learn to dance with your instincts and still have respectful relationships. Cultivating thoughtful awareness of your emotions often means finding personally fulfilling outlets for your power. When you satisfy that inner-wilderness, you create more space for the people you love to be who they are and relieve the pressure for your relationships to be the sole source of fire.

Love
has to be Lived.

it is just an
empty space

nothingness...

"But I Have Stopped to Dream...."

From tonight, I am not looking for you any more..
not even one of you hidden in some of him
or in many
I do not need your embraces
to feel your wish towards me
your sifts to listen
your yearnings to fulfill

From tonight I walk alone
I am walking, straight as a queen
aware of her own mights
which is admiring the beauty of her kingdom
which is serving to it by all her powers
by all her soul escaped from the heaven
and to heaven returned

From tonight the world is shiny drop on the palm
most valuable
mine

Dreamvisions

Tonight I am setting free the bird
of my wantings
Cached in the chest
By your silence

I am inviting the night to heal me
From your touchings
As it did so many times by now

I will leave into your heritage
My smiles caused
By your movements
In those nights when we, isn't it
loved each other
But to each other we did not belong

I will eternally take from you only the shine of your eyes
That black darkness that was surrounding us
Your fingers on my lips
Your passionate sighs that are echoing
within this dreamvision

You

grant me your
most secret
moments
i will keep them
carefully and
forever
the same as
these green
traces
of your touchings
on my skin

grant me
your dreams
let me
dream them
through
your eyes
let the ropes
of your
ramblings
cut into
my feet too

grant me
the darkness
of your
sleepless nights
and the light of your
most mysterious
magical mornings
let the star
of your
insights
spills
on me
and
in me

and stay for all that
yours
totally yours
as you are
for different
i wouldn't
be able to
love you

Come to Me

I would bite tonight
your naked shoulder
I would stab
a sword of tenderness in
the flesh of your hopes
and wishes

I would tear apart
with the kiss
your roamings
and
take you there
where
fulfilled is
all

I would catch tonight
into the net of my
traces
the reflection of your eyes
in the darkness
and

then
totally silently
so that you do not notice in the dream
step aside
towards encounter
with the sunny
hot
day

Satellites of the Stone Age: Come to Me
Dessert Sessions

Should I

Should I write you a poem
while I am thinking of you
while you are walking in my feelings
like in your apartment
in the attic
with the view
on the city lights

Should I tell you
I want you
when
I want you
some short flashing pictures
in front of the eyes
you
and
me
on the living room floor
hugged
united
un-satiationed

Should I tell you
that your hands
are still touching me
like the hot
lava that
expels from the
burning
volcano throat

I see your face
your eyes
your lips
I hear your voice
that tells
you are too beautiful
that tells me
stop
just to
stare into
my eyes

Should I tell you
come
To admit to you
that I am
whispering
that word
like
you could
hear it

Or to remain silent
of this wish
that you
woke up
in me
surprisingly
without question
stormily
and
ripping it out
of
the matrix
of
space
and
time.........

Freedom

Let go of Everything

and

feel the taste of

Freedom

Fly

Fly,
my little un-catch-able bird
fly furthest that you are able to
enjoy in every movement of your gentle wings
and
do not look back
I do not expect that anyway
anymore


but you still walk in my thoughts..
