From Shy Girl to Brave Heart: A Full Moon Letter

Full Moon in Pisces | Eclipse Season

“Rest, Release, and Radiance”

Beloved Ones,

This full moon in Pisces rises within eclipse season, a time of endings, beginnings, and deep recalibration.

The Pisces moon invites us to soften, surrender, and feel into the mystery, while the Virgo sun across the sky reminds us to pay attention to details, create order, and move with care.

One is mystical and soft, the other discerning and practical. Together they ask us to slow our pace, honor rest, and complete what is ready to be released.

Rest is not idleness; it is part of the rhythm that keeps us whole. This season whispers: move gently, complete what needs completion, and return to joy.

Love in Action

We are called now to practice love in action—stepping into circle and ceremony, embracing our joy and play while opening our arms to those in distress and pain. With intent and care, we ripple out the love-frequency of joy, calling ourselves and others to turn toward what makes life beautiful. Even in despair, beauty can be found. When we focus on joy rather than fear, we ignite the quiet revolution of joy and play the world is waiting for.

Under This Moon

This weekend under the Pisces full moon has been a living reminder of community. So many of the people I love, born under the Virgo sun, are celebrating their lives; I’ve been blessed to attend my first bat mitzvah, to sit in circle, to gaze at the moon with friends and family, to express love in ways that feel profound. My heart feels expanded and I stand in awe.

I feel deep gratitude for Life itself and for the quiet, steady presence of my soul’s guidance. Again and again it alerts me to the path most aligned — even when it doesn’t make sense to my mind or my preconceived ideas. I’ve learned the notes. I’m not afraid to be the fool anymore. I trust the innocence of each new moment.

Maybe this is part of the river of life I’m in now — a time to share more openly the way life expresses through me. The shy girl who once wanted to hide under the covers, believing that not sharing had no consequence, now stands behind her brave heart. I know that when I share, I show care; I trust that others can receive, and that it’s not my business how they receive. My task is simply to follow through with my piece of the whole, to stand my ground, and to keep showing up.

The Medicine of Gratitude

A First Nations teacher once called gratitude “the words that come before all else.” Gratitude activates every ritual, every plant, every act of community. It asks for no belief system—only an open heart.

Some say plants vibrate at the frequency of gratitude. When we arrive thankful, we can fully receive what the sacred plants of the Earth offer us.

“Wear gratitude like a cloak and it will feed every corner of your life.” – Rumi

May the ripple of our sharing be felt. Where we place our attention matters. In these moments of togetherness, appreciation can be our greatest medicine.

Ritual Moment

This full moon invites both surrender and discernment. Here is a simple practice you can do at home:

• Prepare your space – Tidy or rearrange a corner of your room, light a candle, or place a flower. Virgo energy loves order.

• Breathe – Close your eyes and inhale slowly, imagining the soft Piscean waters flowing through you.

• Reflect – Ask yourself: What am I ready to complete? What am I willing to release? What beauty am I willing to turn toward?

• Write a love letter to the universe – Express gratitude for the beauty and mystery of existence. Offer your words as a prayer.

• Surrender – Trust in divine timing. Let your body sway gently to a song you love.

This is the balance: tending to the details while surrendering to the flow of the universe.

A Download from Meditation

There is so much information and so many clues opening to us now—messages of permission to release burdens and the beliefs that keep us feeling unworthy or “not enough.” We cannot manage from the top down or control what others do.

What we can do is remember the gift of choice. How we feel, what we think, what we act upon, and how we respond—these are the only pieces truly in our care. It takes practice to steer this vessel, this body, heart, and mind, in a soulful way. It takes awakening our awareness and steering with trust.

I am asked to share this portal because it is for us all. This is the painting you will see with this letter—a multi-layered intentional piece that was channeled. It speaks of stepping into expansive heart space, letting the blood, sweat, and tears of past and present become food for fertile soil. We can stop carrying them forward. It is time to allow expansive, loving awareness.

🌸 Poem

Cosmos, Your Loveliest Bloom

Cosmos, your loveliest bloom,

my eyes soften into tears.

The blue silhouette of Johannesburg smiles.

My little girl—

the one held in my heart,

the one who knows how to make

the simple appear extraordinary.

The one who reminds me how to play,

who longs to skip through fields of Cosmos.

Pink, purple, white—

dancing across a green carpet.

Suddenly my mind is singing,

and the skip returns to my step.

We are here to play,

to weave stories from nothing,

to hold close those who wish

to give or receive love.

We are here to dance, to share,

to feel everything—

and even more.

Be brave,

open your heart.

You are a radiant soul

with so much to give,

with a perspective

all your own.

So dance with the Cosmos,

let its rhythm carry you,

and let your laughter

spill into rivers of tears.

Your presence matters. This is a portal for all of us—to practice joy as an act of resistance, rest as a form of power, and community as a living medicine. Together, we’re creating a world that celebrates diversity, honors boundaries, and trusts in our unique contributions.

May you feel held, safe, and appreciated. May this full moon guide you back to your own steady beat and open heart.

With love,

Quinne
