A New Moon of Self-Care Reflection; Staying Grounded Through Eclipse Season & Global Chaos
This new moon carries a powerful invitation to lean into support and to recognize that asking for help is not a weakness. but a strength. As I often remind myself , and like to remind all of you, it’s not only okay but essential to ask for help, especially when we’re navigating times of transition or healing. Right now, as I focus on my own physical recovery and spiritual healing from surgery, I’m leaning into that principle and practicing the very self-care I encourage in others. That’s why I asked Natalie to guide this month’s newsletter. She brings her insight, clarity, and heart to this work, and I’m grateful to share her words with you. Taking this step is a reminder that honoring our own needs allows us to show up more fully, for ourselves, and for the world around us. ~Tera
New Moon, Eclipse, Equinox and Energy Activation:
We’re stepping into an intensely charged season of energetic transformation, ushered in by this New Moon that opens the gateway to eclipse season. Personally, I’ve been feeling it very intensely, even some of the spiritual tools and practices that have supported me for years are asking to be recalibrated and updated. The collective field is shifting so rapidly that what used to be enough no longer fully holds. Maybe you’ve been noticing this in your own life, practices that once felt grounding suddenly feel flat, or emotional waves rising out of nowhere and demanding deeper presence.
As we move toward this next eclipse season, the energy is not just “strong,” it’s catalytic. This New Moon arrives as a cosmic seed planter, opening the fertile ground within us so we can prepare for new creations and recognize the first tender sprouts of what is ready to emerge. Eclipses then sweep through, disrupting the usual flow of energy so that old patterns can dissolve and new pathways can take root. Combined with the powerful ascension currents moving through the planet, the intensity is amplified far beyond the usual eclipse window. These waves are designed to awaken us, to stir the seeds of our becoming, but without conscious tending and care, their momentum can feel overwhelming.
Old shadows may re-emerge for review, fears can surface unexpectedly, and the increasing global instability can mirror and magnify whatever is unresolved within. There’s a reason so many people are reacting through anger or division, the collective nervous system is overstimulated, and much of humanity doesn’t yet understand the energetic root of what is unfolding.
This is exactly why the Energy Activation Meditations are so important. These spaces help us return to the Higher Self Channel and stabilize all four energetic systems, so we can stay aligned with the new Earth frequencies rather than getting pulled into the chaos of the old paradigm. From that center, we become part of the new Earth energy grid of light that’s supporting the collective shift, even in the midst of disruption.
And beautifully, this heightened eclipse passage is intertwined with the Fall Equinox, a sacred moment of balance between light and dark, inner and outer, heaven and earth. At this exact point of equilibrium, we are invited to pause, breathe, and remember what it feels like to live in harmony. It’s not about bypassing the intensity; it’s about re-orienting so we can move through it with grace.
Over the next few weeks, I encourage you to give yourself extra care, in whatever way feels appropriate to you. It could look like more rest, more water, more time in nature or even scheduling a self-care appointment, it doesn’t really matter what it is, as long as you are listening to what your body and soul are asking for. Let this be a conscious recalibration of your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual systems. Honor your process with love and care. Offer gratitude. And open to receive the next octave of clarity, grounding and empowerment that is waiting to emerge as we collectively step into a new cycle. ~Natalie
