Full Moon 10:57 A.M. EDT

Falling in the sign of Aries on October 20th, the Full Moon will activate the energies of Mars, Pluto, and Eris, creating what is known as a T-Square. This configuration of energy can create a building of tension, but sometimes we need tension in order to inspire action.
Sometimes, it takes feeling stretched to your limits in order to put your foot down, speak your truth, set boundaries, and act, in an effort to change your situation. In essence, that is what this Full Moon is calling us to do. It is calling for us to take affirmative action. But this is where it gets a bit tricky. With Mars, Pluto, and Eris involved, sometimes it can be hard to know what action to take. Sometimes, these planetary forces can see us acting from a place of ego or in an effort to gain control. Sometimes these planetary forces can trigger our darker, more heated emotions, causing us to lash out or perhaps be too forceful. It can help to keep all of this in mind under the energies of the Aries Full Moon, but don’t let this prevent you from taking action if it feels like the right thing to do. This is very assertive energy, and sometimes we do have to be firm, stand our ground, and communicate what we need. At the end of the day, every decision and action we take is an opportunity to learn, to grow, and to shift our life in a new direction. Regardless of where you stand, this Full Moon is a bit of a reality check, helping us to reassess some of our goals and dreams, and what we have been doing, or not doing, in order to achieve them.

We are not meeting in person so can't pass around the offering plate to help us with ongoing operating expenses that need to be paid: partial rent, full insurance, Zoom fees, payment to the national organization, to name a few. https://www.summerlandchurchoflight.org/payments--donations.html Scroll to 'Online Church Service'.

The Summerland Board has finally decided on having in-person services once a month. We are proceeding cautiously due to the uptick of Delta variant cases and now have a date for our return to UUFSB for an in-person service: December 4*. Everyone will need to wear facemasks and follow 6 feet of separation. Complete protocols for in-person activities will be emailed to all on our list. We will be streaming the service so people at home can view. Keep safe, one and all.
* Note that our monthly services will not always be on the first Saturday of the month. The in-person service for January 2022 will be on January 15.
