 THE LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES

By Dr. Elena Estanol

On August 28th, we will have a partial Lunar Eclipse in Pisces, and we will also have a Sturgeon Full Moon in Pisces. (Even if you are reading this post the day or two after the eclipse its energies will still be active. 

This is a “sister-post” to “The Solar Eclipse” one I wrote for August 12th. Please take what resonates and leave the rest behind.

As I continue writing about these movements, I will introduce different aspects of astrolo…

How relationships reveal the unconscious wounds that are ready to be healed

Dr. Elena Estanol

 

Everyone loves the idea of evolution and transformation.

No one particularly likes the confrontation, conflict, or breakdown that often precedes it.

Love, harmony, and beauty are deeply inherent values in my makeup. I have spent years studying esoteric traditions, including numerology, astrology, and tarot. Yet I have seldom s…

You may have been caught up in your own life. 

Most people assume "busyness"

And while yes, there have many things I've had to address, the bigger truth is that "I'VE BEEN BECOMING" 

Not more

Not bigger

Not different

More like "COMING HOME TO MYSELF IN A DEEPER WAY I HAD BEFORE"


Like many people, for a long time I kept measuring progress by: 

  • Clients
  • Money

ThE ILLUSION OF FEAR

photo-1640869112846-2e5ae0d1b807

***This is an essay on fear, inspired by a very scary experience I had. I wrote it initially for me, and then realized I should share with others. **

Fear is the greatest THIEF of life.


The destroyer of freedom, imprisoning us in a cell of illusions and projections.

We engage with fear as if it was a “real” threat, but in reality it is simply an illusion.

The experience from a past hurt, disappointment or threat that we are bringing into the present and projecting into the future…

So what's the fuss with meditation all about??

One of my clients said to me: "You always find a way to bring things back to meditation."

I thought it was a funny observation, yet I realized that while I often encourage our clients to engage in a practice of meditation or mindfulness, I don't always share some of the research or science behind it.

Research shows meditation works. It can help you reduce stress, be happier & less reactive. It also has shown to increase decision-making, compassion, and…

The Dark Side of Productivity

Do you beat yourself up for not being productive enough?
Or are you constantly thinking of ways to increase your productivity?

One of the things I often tell my clients is: “There is such a thing as too much of a good thing!”

And this is especially true if you are Neurodiverse or have ADHD. Because our neurodiverse brains tend to like EXTREMES.

So…what I see in my clients and experience myself is this oscillation between being “unproductive” and then experiencing a surge of Guilt, Pa…

know what you might be thinking… I was looking forward to the summer to relax and take a break!

And you can do that! Often summer brings lots of fun, adventures and an easier schedule. And while most people think that they will “work” at improving their ADHD MANAGEMENT SKILLS over the Fall when school starts, it’s often too late!
