New Moon Announcement
 

New moon Cheshvan

She who “fights” her shadows knows what hell is like.

We are celebrating the second month of the new year according to the Kabbalistic calendar and our new moon in the scorpion.

According to the ancient calendar, this month is called “cheshvan” or even “mar-Cheshvan”.. Some may also say that this month has no place to be celebrated.

However, when we reverse “mar”, it becomes “ram” and Ram means “magnificent!”.

Yes, this month can really be magnificent.

Mar… means pain.

So why pain? Let’s delve a little deeper…

After all the celebrations and all the purification work, we come to Cheshvan, the area where there is no celebration and sometimes “pain”.. According to some Kabbalistic records, it is also said that this month is reserved for Masiah (i.e. the light person)…

Again, when we look at the Kabbalistic calendar, this month has a special importance according to the Kabbalistic calendar, since the great Noah storm broke out on the 17th of this month and Noah disembarked from the ship a year later in the month of Cheshvan.

Of course, these do not make this month “bad”. The events experienced in history contain secret codes for the "human" who has devoted himself to the path of transformation.

The meaning of 17 is "TOV" in Kabbalistic numbers, which means "good" in the ancient language.

So something is going well. (RAM)
It was not bad for everyone,
It was even good for Noah!?

This has a great transformational meaning in our journey. Just as birth and death and suggestions in shamanic knowledge take us from death to birth and from birth to death, and offer us passageways, Noah's storm is also an important passage for us.

Again, a period of time that shows us the things we can see in ourselves, the subjects we can transform, even more closely.

Within shamanic cycles and circles, a circle ends with the east; we need to put into practice all the knowledge we have received in the east and within the entire circle. In fact, this month is the time that shows the time period after the east, and that we put into practice.

We call this "south / water direction", "material life" in the shamanic field. If we cannot experience all the spiritual knowledge, all the transformation in ourselves in the south, that is, in matter, then there is no benefit to us, neither the knowledge we receive nor all those journeys.

This month is exactly the month when we pour our experiences into our lives, that is, when we display them on stage. It includes what you experience in your life while dropping your child off at school, doing your homework, going to work, walking with your cat/dog or feeding them, feeding them or just reading a book, within the “ordinariness” of all this daily life.

In this way, we begin to experience everything we experience in the spiritual realm in matter and on our bodies.

The Kabbalistic calendar is not far from the shamanic cycles, on the contrary, it includes the same cycles. As we start to knead and turn within these cycles, we can reach the highest level of the birth, life and death cycle in all stages of life and experience the highest levels of our potential in the full sense.

The new moon we celebrate in Scorpio, with Cheshvan, where it is in its home, in its home,
shows us the end of the cycle. We can clearly see and experience what we need to leave behind in the upcoming cycle and what our exact homework is.

Everyone's lifestyle and the way they do their daily work has involuntarily changed in the past years. One of the biggest reasons for this was change.

Some of our thought patterns, such as "all / enough", have transformed into a different dimension for us. We have moved from "I know" to "I am learning".

Now it is time to leave all of this behind and finish a class and move on to a new one.

The energy that awaits us and the energy we are currently going through (Yin) are both very feminine energies...

Like a double door...
Two of the thousand and one faces of the Goddess, our mother earth...
One is harder, more mysterious, more fiery; the other is softer. This Yin energy is harmonious and accepting, valuing, trusting, producing and reproducing, caring about solidity...

The currently active masculine energy (pachakutti / sky father) will merge with the Yin energy (pachamama / earth mother) and become a "food".

The word “nourishment” and nourishment will gain a wider meaning for all of us. We will have the opportunity to talk about this a lot in the future...

Now, let's look at us again and its connection with this month.

These symbols represent the earth mother (pachamama). Our mother has formed herself in the most fundamental beginning and has placed herself in the most important place in matter...

A new order has formed in all the confusion and chaos. Just like it is forming right now. The old order is sinking and surrendering itself to a new order.

This month may be a fragment of what we will experience in the future according to the Kabbalistic calendar. In this process, we have to strip ourselves of some people, energies and habits, both individually and socially, and step into a freer and brighter place. Even if the transformation sometimes comes with pain and congestion, everything will serve freedom, peace and goodness.

Now, you should make peace with your own darkness and show your brighter sides to society and your environment. We all carry both sides inside us. We all have shadows and lights. This is balanced and natural.

What gives you confidence in life?

It is not just the values ​​in material things, a good job or the salary you receive.

Maybe there are people who give you confidence?

When you look inside your heart, what is there? How can you trust yourself?

How reliable are you?

Now look here: How can you trust others? How much do you trust yourself? Compare...
Are you reliable?

So throw your negativity, hatred, jealousy, desire to punish someone, off Noah's Ark. They have no place there. Purify yourself of these burdens.

Then you will be able to get closer to your life energy and see that life is actually a place where you can enjoy...
First of all, you will see that you can trust yourself, take care of yourself, and nourish yourself.

Those who "fight" their shadows a lot know what hell is like; they have experienced it and have been through hell themselves.

The rise of Goddess Inanna from the lower world is life rising from the shadow.

The place where karma ends.

It is to rise from the lowest point to the highest point.
You can also save the world?!
You can also remain in darkness?!

Destruction and healing.
Liberation and imprisonment.
Heaven and hell.

However, there is an antidote in the poison.

Kabbalists say that the month of “cheshvan” is full of gifts. According to some, Noah’s storm was “bad”, but it must have been a good month for Noah?

When we decipher Noah’s ark in knowledge, we realize that it is “the consciousness that experiences knowledge” and we follow the instructions and begin to build the “ark”, “ship”, that is, the consciousness that is asked of us.

You will receive what you give.

Chodesh Tov
(May our new month be good and blessed!)

"The depth of the wisdom of The Zohar is locked behind thousands of doors." 

With the meditations we will do every week and the Aramaic keys we will receive according to the subject of the group, we gradually open the doors, ascending from the roots of the tree of life to its crown. 

Participation conditions : 
• Willingness to transform 
• Being ready to face their shadow 
• Having a desire to have more light in your life

"I bow down in front of this cedar, from which I continue to feed on the science of the madrasa, without ever giving up as a student.

​

I borrowed it to share what I know. I'm about to meet on this journey I've set up to share the fruits of my journey that I started walking in my own mystery for a long time."
