The Exalted Moon Lights the Sacred Fire ❤️

 Dear friends,

On November 24, the Moon rises full in Taurus, its sign of exaltation, inside Krittika, the nakshatra of the sacred flame. It is a night of deep nourishment and clear-eyed purification at once: the Moon wants comfort, while Krittika wants truth.

This full moon arrives just after Mercury and Venus turn direct, and alongside a fiery gathering of Mars, Jupiter and Ketu in Leo. Think of it as a hearth fire: warmth to restore you, and heat to burn away what you have outgrown.

Exact full moon

Western (tropical) calendars list this as a Gemini full moon. In the sidereal zodiac used in Vedic astrology, the Moon falls in Taurus.

Taurus and Krittika: Earth Meets Fire

This full moon blends two very different energies: the steady, fertile earth of Taurus and the sharp, purifying fire of Krittika.

The Moon in Taurus. In Jyotish, the Moon is exalted in Taurus, the Venus-ruled sign of beauty, comfort, and the senses. Here the mind settles, and the heart craves nourishment and security. It is one of the most emotionally grounding placements of the year.

Krittika Nakshatra. The Sun rules Krittika, and Agni, the god of fire, presides over it. Its symbol is a blade, the tool that cuts cleanly. Krittika is also linked to the six Pleiades sisters, the nurturing mothers who raised the warrior Kartikeya. So this nakshatra both protects and purifies: it feeds what is true and cuts away what is not.

The Sun–Moon axis. The Sun in Scorpio, a sign of depth and transformation, faces the Moon in Taurus, a sign of the body, values, and stability. Together they ask:

What do I truly value, and what am I ready to release?

Themes to work with:

•      Purification — clearing old habits, clutter, and emotional residue

•      Courageous honesty — speaking clearly and kindly, the Krittika way

•      Nourishment — tending your body as the temple that carries your spirit

•      Inner fire — rekindling motivation, discipline and digestive strength (Agni)

The Planetary Alignment

Mercury and Venus Turn Direct (around November 13–14)

After weeks of retrograde review, both Mercury, now in Libra, and Venus resume forward motion within a day of each other. The sluggish, backward-looking energy begins to lift. Conversations, agreements, relationships, and finances that felt stuck can start moving again.

By the full moon, we are still in the "shadow" period, so the shift is real but gentle. It is an excellent time to finalize what you reviewed during the retrograde, rather than to start something entirely new on impulse. With Mercury in Libra, fairness and balanced communication are the keys to repairing relationships.

Mars Joins Jupiter and Ketu in Leo (mid-November)

This is the most intense configuration of the month. Mars and Jupiter together form Guru-Mangal Yoga, a combination associated with courage, leadership, conviction, and purposeful action. Leo, ruled by the Sun, amplifies the desire to shine, create and lead.

Ketu changes the flavor. Ketu brings detachment, sudden turns and spiritual awakening. With Mars beside it, the energy can feel restless, fiery or unpredictable. Expect tests of ego and pride, and moments when old ambitions suddenly feel empty while a deeper calling becomes clear.

Leo also sits in a tense angle to the Taurus Moon. You may feel a tug-of-war between comfort and ambition, rest and action. The wisdom of this full moon is to let Taurus steady you while Leo inspires you.

Health and Healing Guidance

In medical astrology, Taurus governs the throat, neck, thyroid and voice. Krittika's fire relates to Agni, our digestive and metabolic fire. The Leo trio of Mars, Jupiter and Ketu highlights the heart, spine and circulation, along with heat and inflammation. In late November we also enter the cold, damp season that Traditional Chinese Medicine associates with the Water element and the Kidneys.

Put together, this full moon invites us to warm and steady digestion, protect the throat, cool excess fire, and conserve deep energy for winter.

1. Kindle Agni gently

•      Favor warm, cooked meals: soups, stews, congee and kitchari over cold, raw foods.

•      Use warming digestive spices such as ginger, cumin, fennel and coriander. Studies suggest ginger may support healthy digestion.

•      Eat your largest meal at midday, when digestive fire is strongest, and keep dinner light and early.

2. Soothe the Taurus throat and thyroid

•      Sip warm water or herbal teas through the day; try honey with ginger, or licorice root tea.

•      Include selenium-rich foods such as one or two Brazil nuts, eggs, and sunflower seeds, which may support thyroid health.

•      Sea vegetables provide iodine; enjoy them in moderation, and check with your practitioner first if you have a thyroid condition.

•      Humming, chanting and singing gently stimulate the throat and calm the nervous system.

3. Cool the Leo fire

•      Support heart and circulation with anti-inflammatory foods: leafy greens, berries, beets and wild BC salmon rich in omega-3s.

•      Turmeric with a pinch of black pepper may help support a healthy inflammatory response.

•      Avoid over-training or pushing through exhaustion. Mars and Ketu can make us feel invincible, then suddenly depleted.

•      Calming herbs such as hawthorn, rose and tulsi may support the heart and emotional balance.

4. Nourish the Kidneys for winter (TCM)

•      Bring in "black" and deeply nourishing foods: black beans, black sesame, walnuts, seaweed and bone broth.

•      Go to bed a little earlier. Winter is the season to store energy, not spend it.

•      Keep your lower back and feet warm, especially on damp coastal days.

1.   Clean your space and light a candle or diya, honouring Agni, the sacred fire.

2.   Sit quietly and gaze softly at the flame for a few minutes, then close your eyes and hold its image within.

3.   On one piece of paper, write what you are ready to release. Safely burn it in a fireproof bowl, or tear it up and return it to the earth.

4.  On a second piece, write what you wish to nourish. Keep it on your altar until the next new moon.

5.   If the sky is clear, step outside and take in the moonlight for a few minutes of quiet connection with nature.

Journal Prompts

•      What in my life truly nourishes me, and what only comforts me in the moment?

•      What truth have I been avoiding that Krittika's blade is ready to cut through?

•      Where can I lead with courage, without being ruled by ego?

•      How can I care for my body this winter as a sacred vessel?

Closing Blessing

The exalted Moon reminds us that we heal best when we feel safe, fed, and at home in our bodies. Krittika reminds us that real healing also asks for honesty and the courage to let go. May this full moon bring you warmth, clarity and a deeper connection to your inner light.

With love and light,

Lucy

Molybdenum: Your Liver's Unsung Detox Hero ❤️

Hello Soul family,

When we think about minerals that support our health, iron, calcium, and magnesium often steal the spotlight. But tucked quietly in the shadow of these more celebrated nutrients is a trace mineral that plays an indispensable role in your body's ability to detoxify, produce energy, and protect your cells: molybdenum.

Your body only needs this mineral in microgram quantities — yet without it, critical biochemical reactions stall. As a Registered Dietitian and holistic health practitioner, I find molybdenum to be one of the most overlooked pieces of the detoxification puzzle. Let's explore what it does, why your liver depends on it, and how to get enough from your food.

What Is Molybdenum?

Molybdenum is an essential trace mineral, meaning your body cannot manufacture it on its own — you must obtain it through diet. It functions primarily as a cofactor for a group of enzymes called molybdoenzymes. These enzymes catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions, many of which are central to how your body processes waste products, metabolizes sulphur-containing compounds, and neutralizes toxins. The four key molybdoenzymes are sulfite oxidase, xanthine oxidase, aldehyde oxidase, and mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component (mARC). Each one performs specific and vital functions — and together, they form a biochemical team that keeps your internal environment clean and balanced.

Molybdenum & Liver Detoxification

Your liver is your body's master detoxification organ, working around the clock to filter blood, neutralize chemicals, and break down metabolic byproducts. It operates through two main pathways — Phase I and Phase II detoxification — and molybdenum plays a pivotal supporting role in both.

Sulphur Metabolism & Sulfite Oxidase

One of molybdenum's most critical jobs is activating the enzyme sulfite oxidase, which converts sulfites into sulfates. Sulfites are natural byproducts of protein metabolism and are also found in wine, dried fruits, and many processed foods. When sulfite oxidase is working optimally — which requires adequate molybdenum — these sulfites are safely converted and excreted. Without this conversion, sulfites accumulate and can trigger symptoms ranging from headaches and joint pain to brain fog and allergic reactions.

This is especially significant from a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective. In TCM, the liver governs the free flow of Qi (vital energy) throughout the body. When sulphur metabolites back up, they create internal 'stagnation' that manifests as tension, irritability, digestive disturbances, and skin conditions — all classic signs of liver Qi stagnation. Supporting sulfite oxidase through adequate molybdenum intake is a bridge between functional nutrition and TCM wisdom.

Uric Acid Production & Xanthine Oxidase

Molybdenum also activates xanthine oxidase, which is involved in the breakdown of purines (compounds found in DNA and RNA) into uric acid, which is then excreted through the kidneys. While excess uric acid is associated with gout and kidney stones, a healthy baseline level is essential — uric acid is actually a potent antioxidant in the blood. The key is balance, and molybdenum helps maintain it.

Drug & Alcohol Metabolism via Aldehyde Oxidase

Aldehyde oxidase, another molybdoenzyme, plays an important role in metabolizing aldehydes — toxic byproducts produced during the breakdown of alcohol, certain medications, and environmental pollutants. This enzyme also helps metabolize vitamin B6 into its active form, making molybdenum indirectly essential for nerve function, mood regulation, and immune health. In our modern world, where environmental toxin exposure is unavoidable, the liver's capacity to process aldehydes efficiently is more important than ever.

Signs You May Need More Molybdenum

Overt molybdenum deficiency is rare, but insufficiency — having suboptimal levels — can quietly undermine your detox capacity. Possible signs include:
  • Sensitivity to sulfites (wine, dried fruit, processed foods causing headaches or flushing)
  • Persistent fatigue and brain fog not explained by other causes
  • Joint pain or signs of elevated uric acid
  • Poor tolerance to alcohol or certain medications
  • Chronic skin issues, eczema, or unexplained rashes
  • History of a high refined grain diet with low legume intake
     
Food source of molybdenum

The good news? Molybdenum is found abundantly in whole foods — particularly plant-based ones. The mineral content in plant foods varies depending on soil quality, but a diet rich in legumes and whole grains generally provides sufficient amounts. The recommended adequate intake for adults is 45 micrograms per day, and the tolerable upper limit is 2,000 micrograms — so there's a very wide safety range.

Top Food Sources

  • Legumes (highest sources): lentils, black beans, kidney beans, chickpeas, soybeans — just ½ cup of cooked lentils can provide more than the daily requirement
  • Whole grains: oats, buckwheat, barley, quinoa, brown rice
  • Leafy greens: spinach, Swiss chard, kale — also rich in sulphur compounds that work synergistically with molybdenum
  • Nuts and seeds: sunflower seeds, almonds, peanuts
  • Animal foods: beef liver (an exceptional source), eggs, dairy
  • Vegetables: peas, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower
  • Herbs: fresh parsley and coriander offer modest amounts and support liver function holistically
 
Note that soil molybdenum levels vary significantly across regions. If you live in an area with mineral-depleted soils — common in parts of North America — buying organically grown legumes and vegetables from regeneratively managed farms can help ensure higher mineral content in your food.

A Holistic Perspective: Nourishing the Liver Through Food

From both a functional nutrition and Traditional Chinese Medicine standpoint, the liver thrives when it is nourished with whole, mineral-rich foods and supported in its detoxification work. Molybdenum-rich foods are naturally aligned with TCM liver-supportive eating: legumes build the Spleen (the digestive foundation in TCM), dark leafy greens clear Heat and support Blood, and sulphur-containing vegetables like broccoli promote the liver's Phase II detox pathways.

Simple practices to boost your molybdenum intake naturally: add ½ cup of lentils or beans to soups, stews, and salads daily; make a grain bowl with buckwheat or rice as a base; include sautéed leafy greens with garlic (another sulphur-rich food) at dinner; and swap processed snacks for a small handful of sunflower seeds or almonds. These small, consistent shifts add up to meaningful long-term detox support.
 
The body is exquisitely designed to heal and detoxify — it simply needs the right building blocks. Molybdenum may be tiny in quantity, but its impact on your liver, your energy, and your well-being is anything but small. Start with your plate, choose whole foods generously, and trust that nature has provided everything you need.

Look for clean and plant-based nutritional supplements that help detoxify nanoparticles and toxic heavy metals. I recommend Folim pX products; they also have new products for diabetes and autism based on cutting-edge science. Here are the core features of Folium products: 

  1. Potent Plant-Based Formulation: Crafted using concentrated herbs, pine bark, grape seed, and wild berries rich in natural antioxidants.

  3. Purity & Integrity: A trusted nutraceutical capsule line designed to help clear free radicals and support natural wellness.

The Seed of Purpose ❤️

Dear soul family,

On November 9, the Sun and Moon unite in sidereal Libra, the dark moon that opens the Diwali season of lights. It is a fitting symbol: the darkest night of the lunar month becomes the moment we light a lamp of intention. This new moon arrives in a sky full of pauses and reversals, with three planets retrograde and a powerful Mars–Jupiter union building in Leo. The message is clear: slow down, look within, and plant your seeds with patience. The harvest is coming.

Vishakha: The Star of Purpose

This new moon forms in Vishakha nakshatra (20° Libra to 3°20′ Scorpio), symbolized by a triumphal arch decorated with leaves, or a potter’s wheel. Vishakha is ruled by Jupiter and guided by the twin deities Indra and Agni, the forces of power and sacred fire. It is known as the “star of purpose,” carrying single-minded determination toward a meaningful goal.

Vishakha teaches that real achievement comes from steady devotion rather than haste. With the Moon in its first pada, the energy is ambitious and outward-looking, yet the retrogrades around it ask us to refine our goals before we chase them. Ask yourself: What do I truly want to grow over the next six months, and is it aligned with my soul’s purpose? Write it down tonight, light a candle, and offer it to the inner fire.

Note that in Libra the Sun is debilitated, so vitality and confidence may feel lower than usual. Be gentle with yourself. Libra seeks balance; this is a new moon for restoring harmony between giving and receiving, work and rest, self and others.

Venus and Mercury Retrograde: The Great Review

Two personal planets are retrograde at this new moon. Venus has been retrograde since October 3 and now moves backward through Virgo, its sign of debilitation, before turning direct around November 13–14. Venus is the ruler of Libra, so the lord of this new moon is both weakened and reversed. Relationships, values, self-worth, and finances may surface for review. Old connections can return, and unspoken feelings may rise to the surface.

Mercury turned retrograde on October 24 and sits close to the Sun in Libra in Swati nakshatra, turning direct around November 13. Expect delays in communication, technology, and travel. This is wonderful timing for re-reading, re-thinking, re-connecting, and finishing what you have started, rather than signing new contracts or making large purchases.

Together, these retrogrades suggest that this new moon is better suited for setting inner intentions than launching outer projects. Plant the seed now; take bold action after mid-November, once both planets move forward again.

Saturn Retrograde in Pisces: Karmic Clean-Up

Saturn continues its retrograde in Pisces, in Uttara Bhadrapada nakshatra, until around mid-December. Saturn here invites us to examine our boundaries, our spiritual discipline, and the patterns we have quietly carried for years. Pisces dissolves; Saturn structures. Together they ask: Where am I leaking energy? What old fears or obligations am I ready to release?

This is a supportive time for meditation, rest, forgiveness practices, and slowly rebuilding healthy routines. Saturn rewards consistency, so small daily rituals matter more than dramatic changes.

Mars and Jupiter Unite in Leo: Courage Meets Wisdom

On the day of the new moon, Mars is still in Cancer, where it is debilitated, and emotions may feel heavy or reactive. Jupiter entered sidereal Leo on October 31, joining Ketu in Magha nakshatra. Then on November 12, Mars enters Leo, and the two planets meet in an exact conjunction around November 15–16. This energy combines Mars’ courage with Jupiter’s wisdom and generosity.

Leo is the sign of the heart, leadership, and creative self-expression. With Ketu present, this conjunction carries a spiritual tone: action guided by faith and higher purpose rather than ego. The days just after Venus and Mercury go direct (from about November 14 onward) may be an excellent window to begin the intentions you plant at this new moon.

Health Suggestions for This Lunar Cycle

Libra governs the kidneys, lower back, and skin, and Leo governs the heart and circulation. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, late autumn is the season of the Lungs, while preparing the Kidneys for the deep rest of winter. Studies suggest that gentle, consistent habits may support resilience through seasonal transitions. Here are a few suggestions for this cycle:

•      Nourish the kidneys: stay well hydrated with warm water and herbal teas, and enjoy warming foods such as black beans, walnuts, black sesame, bone broth, and root vegetables.

•      Support the lungs: add pears, white radish (daikon), lotus root, and a little fresh ginger to soups. Practice slow, deep belly breathing each morning.

•      Calm the nervous system: with Mercury retrograde, reduce screen time in the evening and try magnesium-rich foods such as leafy greens, pumpkin seeds, and almonds.

•      Care for the heart: as Mars and Jupiter energize Leo, balance activity with rest. Brisk walks in nature, omega-3 rich foods, and moments of joy and laughter may support heart health.

•      Ease inflammation: Mars in Cancer and then Leo can bring heat. Favor cooling, anti-inflammatory foods such as turmeric, leafy greens, berries, and cucumber, and avoid excess alcohol and fried food.

•      Rest your lower back: gentle stretching, yoga, or a warm Epsom salt bath can help release tension stored in the Libra-ruled areas of the body.

A New Moon Ritual

On the evening of the new moon, sit quietly by a candle. Take seven slow breaths, placing one hand on your heart and one on your lower belly. Ask Vishakha’s sacred fire to burn away what no longer serves you. Write three intentions: one for your health, one for your relationships, and one for your soul’s purpose. Read them again when Venus and Mercury turn direct, and take your first step during the Mars–Jupiter conjunction.

May the light of this Diwali new moon illuminate your path with balance, clarity, and joy.

With love and light,

Lucy

The Music Within You ❤️

Hello Beautiful Soul,

Have you ever noticed how one song can lift your mood in seconds, while traffic noise leaves you frazzled? Sound is not just something we hear. It is vibration, and our bodies are wonderfully responsive to it. Ancient healers knew this long before physics did. In India, sages chanted sacred syllables to awaken the body’s energy centres. Tibetan monks played singing bowls, and Taoist masters used six healing sounds to balance the organs. Today, sound healing is enjoying a beautiful revival, and one of its most popular tools is a set of tones called the Solfeggio frequencies. So pour a cup of tea, settle in, and let’s take a musical journey up the seven chakras, from the roots to the crown.

First, a Quick Word on Frequencies

A frequency is simply how many times a sound wave vibrates each second, measured in hertz (Hz). The Solfeggio tones were popularized in the 1970s and 1990s, and in modern sound healing each one is paired with a chakra. Their link to ancient Gregorian chant is a lovely story, though historians still debate it, and some healers use other systems, such as tuning forks based on the musical scale. What matters most is how the sound feels in your body.

● Root Chakra (Muladhara): 396 Hz

Colour: red  ·  Mantra: LAM  ·  Theme: safety and grounding
Muladhara sits at the base of your spine and is your energetic foundation, like the roots of a great tree. When it is balanced, you feel safe, steady and at home in your body. When it wobbles, you may feel anxious, scattered or stuck in survival mode. 396 Hz is known as the tone of liberation, traditionally used to release fear and guilt. As you listen, picture roots growing from your feet deep into the warm earth.

Healing benefits: grounding, calm and a deep sense of security.

● Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana): 417 Hz

Colour: orange  ·  Mantra: VAM  ·  Theme: creativity and emotional flow
Just below the navel lives Svadhisthana, the chakra of water, pleasure and creativity. It governs how freely our emotions flow. 417 Hz is called the tone of change, and sound healers use it to help clear old patterns and support us through life transitions. If you feel creatively blocked or emotionally frozen, this is your tone.

Healing benefits: creativity, emotional release, and joy in life’s simple pleasures.

● Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura): 528 Hz

Colour: golden yellow  ·  Mantra: RAM  ·  Theme: confidence and digestive fire
Readers of my gut health series will recognize this one! Manipura, the city of jewels, is home to agni, your digestive fire, and to your willpower and self-esteem. 528 Hz is the celebrity of the Solfeggio family, nicknamed the love frequency or miracle tone. A small 2018 study in Japan found that music tuned to 528 Hz appeared to lower stress markers in volunteers. Promising, though more research is needed.

Healing benefits: confidence, motivation, healthy boundaries and happier digestion.

● Heart Chakra (Anahata): 639 Hz

Colour: green  ·  Mantra: YAM  ·  Theme: love and connection
Anahata means unstruck, a poetic name for the place where love flows freely. Sitting in the centre of the chest, it bridges the three earthly chakras below with the three spiritual chakras above. 639 Hz is traditionally used to harmonize relationships and encourage forgiveness, both towards others and towards ourselves.

Healing benefits: compassion, emotional healing and warmer connections.

● Throat Chakra (Vishuddha): 741 Hz

Colour: sky blue  ·  Mantra: HAM  ·  Theme: truth and self-expression
Ever had a lump in your throat when you could not say what you felt? That is Vishuddha asking for attention. This chakra governs communication and authentic self-expression. 741 Hz is associated with cleansing and with expressing your truth clearly. Many people also hold tension in the jaw, neck and shoulders, which makes this a lovely tone to pair with a gentle neck stretch.

Healing benefits: clear communication, creativity and release of throat and jaw tension.

● Third Eye Chakra (Ajna): 852 Hz

Colour: indigo  ·  Mantra: OM  ·  Theme: intuition and insight
Between your eyebrows lies Ajna, the seat of intuition. In yogic tradition, it is where the two great energy channels, Ida and Pingala, finally meet. As a Vedic astrologer, I love this chakra: it is the inner eye that sees beyond the surface of things. 852 Hz is used to awaken intuition and quiet the busy, overthinking mind.

Healing benefits: intuition, mental clarity, focus and deeper meditation.

● Crown Chakra (Sahasrara): 963 Hz

Colour: violet or white  ·  Mantra: silence or OM  ·  Theme: spiritual connection
At the very top of the head blooms Sahasrara, the thousand-petalled lotus. It is our connection to something greater than ourselves, whatever we call it: the divine, the universe or pure consciousness. 963 Hz, sometimes called the frequency of the gods, is used for deep meditation and a sense of oneness.

Healing benefits: inner peace, spiritual connection and a feeling of wholeness.

Try It: A 15-Minute Chakra Sound Bath

  • Set the scene. Find a quiet spot, use headphones, and keep the volume soft and comfortable.
  • Start at the root. Spend about two minutes with each frequency, moving upward from 396 Hz to 963 Hz.
  • Breathe in colour. Visualize each chakra’s colour glowing brighter with every breath.
  • Hum along. Softly chant each chakra’s mantra and feel where it vibrates in your body.
  • Linger where you need it. Feeling unsettled? Stay longer at the root. Heartbroken? Rest at the heart.
  • Close in silence. Sit quietly for a minute, sip some water, and jot down anything you noticed.
Caution: Keep volumes low, and avoid listening while driving. If you have epilepsy, tinnitus or another sound-sensitive condition, check with your healthcare provider first. Sound healing is a lovely companion to, but not a replacement for, medical or mental health care.

You Are a Living Instrument

Like a beautiful instrument, you sometimes drift a little out of tune. Stress, grief, busy schedules and changing seasons all leave their mark. The good news is that you can always return to harmony, one breath, one tone and one gentle moment at a time. Try the sound bath this week and notice which chakra sings the loudest for you. Your body may have something wonderful to tell you.

By the way, I will be at the Lady's Night in Port Alberni on Oct.24th. I will be offering palm reading, medical face/tongue reading, Sidereal astrology chart reading, especially related to past lives and chronic health challenges, tarot card reading combined with Sidereal astrology for one-year predictions and predictions for specific events in your life, ancient 1 Ching, and much more. I am looking forward to meeting you there. Please check my poster below for more details.
