December again and another year nearly at an end! In the northern hemisphere December is a month of rapidly decreasing daylight hours and a time where the natural world moves into winter rest mode. This year we have had quite a gentle descent into winter because the weather has been comparatively mild so even now there are still a few roses blooming in the garden for us to enjoy. Despite this however, it is all too obvious that the shortest day of the year is only just around the corner. The time between the Solstice and New Year is always a particularly magical time as the sun hovers at its furthest reach before slowly turning back in the opposite direction, so do remember to take time out to enjoy it wherever you are in the world.
In E-Light this Month: the Energies of December, the Influence of Sagittarius the Power of Self-Mastery, our Essence Suggestions for December and our latest news. Our Festive Special Offers include; the Aquarmine and Passion Flower Essences, the Bach Self Select & Chakra Essence sets, plus a range of other Essences & sets, all at 20% Discount
We have certainly had some very intense energies to navigate over the last month or two, so you will be glad to hear that December seems set to be a somewhat less intense month energetically.
There is a general sense that the coming few weeks will offer us a space in which to rest, review, reflect and make new plans. It will be an excellent opportunity to review what you have been working on within yourself over the last twelve months and to release any residues of unfinished business before the pace picks up again as we go into the New Year.
There will be an abundance of spiritually uplifting, inspirational energies around this month that will provide plenty of opportunity for insight and new beginnings. The new moon in Sagittarius on December 7th, (December 6th is some time zones), will be the first of these energetic offerings. New Moons are always potent opportunities for new beginnings and for setting new intentions, especially so when the moon and sun are together in expansive Sagittarius.
The 12 12 gateway, the annual alignment with the galactic core and the winter/summer solstice all bring an added dimension to the energies this month. Each of these events will gift us a download of high frequency light containing evolutionary codes that trigger expansion of consciousness and connect us more fully with our multi-dimensional self. Take time out to receive and integrate this month because there is much opportunity for clarity and new perspectives to be received.
By the time that we get to the full moon on December 22nd, directly after the Solstice, the sun will have edged into Capricorn and the moon will be at 0 degrees Cancer. The energies of this full moon will have an emotional edge to them that may have you revisiting old emotional issues still in need of some extra loving attention. Relationship and/or family issues might well come to the fore in this energy so be kind to yourself and just allow if this is your experience
The sun moved into the constellation of Sagittarius on November 22nd, initiating a flow of magnified Sagittarian energies that will provide a unique energetic flavouring for all the other planetary alignments and influences in the cosmic line-up this month.
The fiery energies of Sagittarius stimulate clear vision, clarity, focus and purpose. They also encourage connection with the higher mind and intuition, as well as inspiring wisdom and truthfulness.
The astrological symbol for Sagittarius depicts an archer purposefully firing an arrow towards a distant target. Sometimes the archer is shown as a centaur – half man and half horse – and sometimes as a knight riding upon a horse. In either case the archer is dependent upon the cooperation of the horse if his arrow is to have any hope of reaching its target. The energies of Sagittarius impulse us to aim for our highest spiritual potential through focussed attention and connection to the higher mind.
The symbolism here is a reminder that to reach that potential, soul and personality must become a cooperative and trustworthy team capable of working together towards a shared vision. There is great potential within this energy for us to make positive choices that will influence our collective experience over the next few years. This is always a particularly powerful process when groups of likeminded souls get together to broadcast a lovingly shared vision for the good of the whole.

We live in chaotic times and a casual look around the world most days can easily make you feel that you have no power to change anything, however that is very far from the truth.
Remember that what we are witnessing is the noise and chaos of change, as everything that does not resonate with fifth dimensional consciousness is being shaken loose and revealed so that new choices can be made. It is most important that we do not get distracted by this turmoil and instead choose to shoot our arrows of positivity towards the goal of a unified loving world of possibilities not yet visible, but nonetheless very available. We are in the early stages of this manifestation and it will require sufficient people with enough self-mastery to gradually co create it over the next few years.
The energies this month will be very supportive of an examination of the level of self-mastery that we have so far achieved. Take some time out to examine whether you are fully occupying the driving seat of your life and check that the satnav is set according to your own inner truth. In effect this means being very aware of all your thoughts, feelings, emotions and motives, making sure that these are in as much alignment with what you want to experience as you can manage. No judgement is needed here, just a process of neutral observation that allows all your personality aspects to be gathered in with loving acceptance.
We have been working hard all this year re-evaluating and releasing old issues, many of them very deep and painful. Now is a good moment to check in to make sure that there is nothing still lingering that is unseen and likely to cause disagreement within your multidimensional team.
Self-mastery is an important work in progress for all of us and within the expansive, inspirational flow of energies this month we will have a wonderful opportunity to expand our capabilities and choose to reset our focus and intention where necessary. With this in mind our Essence Suggestions for December offer some supportive combinations that might help with this process.
Self-mastery has many levels to it, but these are all built on a foundation of self-awareness, honesty, integrity and truth. Over many lifetimes of experience, we have all developed ‘coping strategies’, to help us exist in a world that does not appear to function on any of these attributes. In this process we have lost the ability to express the fullness of who we are.
The first level of self-mastery entails stripping away these old coping strategies and the issues and patterns that hold them in place. We have all done a lot of work on these over the last few years but if your experience is anything like ours you will probably find that the layers run deep, and some things keep on reappearing, each time in a slightly different guise. In this situation take a little time to assess what the vibration is that is out of alignment with your inner truth, allow it a voice and a loving space to reveal itself. Once you have connected with it choose an essence that will help you dissolve the old energies.
Lack of self-value, doubt, uncertainty, fear, guilt and self-judgement are some of the more common issues that can reveal themselves in this situation, so let’s start with some essence suggestions to help with these issues. Feeling Worthy; transforming unworthiness, Inner Certainty; transforming doubt, Inner Calm; transforming fear, Forgiveness; transforming guilt and Inner Freedom; transforming judgement. You might also like to check out Self-Acceptance; restoring unconditionality, and Wild Orchidand Pink Rosefrom the Karmic Essences if further support with these issues is needed.
The ability to maintain positive personal boundaries and a neutral, unattached perspective is also a very important aspect of self-mastery. This can be far from easy when we have unconscious beliefs that tell us that it is unsafe to stand in our power, better to please people than stand up for our truths and easier to take responsibility for others rather than ourselves.
If any of these issues come into your awareness this month be kind to yourself and recognise that they are deep collective patterns that we are all working on to some degree. Check out Solar Plexus Chakra, Feeling Safe; trusting life, Auric Protection Spray, Self-Responsibility; transforming resentment and Wild Iris to see which would most help you.
Self-mastery also requires that we connect with our own truth and inner vision and be prepared to act on it in the best way that we can. We can best make this connection from within the unity of our own heart space. Here in the stillness we will know what is true for us and what it is that we need to do, regardless of anything that might be going on around us. Choose Unconditional Love, Heart Connection Spray; living in love, or Inner Wisdom; connecting heart & mind, to help you get more fully into your heart. Choose Energetic Alignment Spray; soul connection, or Soul Connection; enlightenment to help expand your connection to your multidimensional self.
Lastly, why not treat yourself or a friend to one of our Pure Vibration Sprays. Check out Angelic Gifts to help you connect with the wisdom of the Angel within or Positive Vibrations to keep your energy fields sparking clear and ready for the opportunities that 2019 will bring forward.
