ANAHULU POEPOE ... The Second Week ... 5 Days Before 'OLE MAHALO, again



Tonight, Monday, April 18th, 2011 is the Fourth and final Full Moon during the ANAHULU POEPOE.  We are mid-way through the Malama (month) and mid-way through our maiden voyage aboard this wa'a kaulua called COUNT ON THE MOON.  Our exploration and sharing of mana'o has included primary focus on the 'OLE Moons, but the rest times of the 'ole are more fully appreciated when the whole of Kaulana Mahina is understood.  Counting on the Moon is a practice, learned with time and attention.  Each of us comes with a lifetime already in progress so how and when we are teachable varies just as planting, cultivating, fertilizing and weeding seed, trees or fish in ka wai varies.  We are different, yet of the same species.

One voyage through the cycle of Mahina gives us new information; refreshed views; questions to ponder; insights to stumble upon; perspectives to chew upon.  On this final new moon of Mahealani it's a good time to view the whole cycle ... take a look at the phases again and before the full moons pass give yourself something.

Fully ripe from the NEW MOON OF NEW BEGINNINGS ask yourself "What has fully ripened in my life?"  or  "What is ripening ... like Mahina becoming full in four phases ... in my life now?"
Give yourself the gift of CELEBRATING SUCCESS.  In what ever shape, size or increment you view your life succces. Celebrate it in whatever fashion suites you!

  • Write about it
  • Sing about it (in the shower, in the car, karaoke)
  • Give yourself a gift
  • Get a packet of gold stars ... STAR yourself
  • Celebrate the Aries New Moon and Libra Full Moon some kind of way

We are mid-way through the Malama of New Beginnings. 
What celebration can you give yourself today?

That's us at our First Event in 4 Years ... a new beginning CELEBRATION
EARTH DAY, Langley, WA 2011
