Lunar Eclipse Shadow Work: Harnessing Sunstone’s Radiance
Lunar eclipses have long been revered as moments of profound energetic shift—a celestial dance where shadows reveal hidden truths. As the Earth’s umbra briefly obscures the Moon’s light, we’re invited to confront our own inner shadows and align with transformative energies. In this sacred interplay of darkness and illumination, Sunstone emerges as a radiant ally, guiding us to embrace both our light and shadows with courage and grace.

- Recalibrating emotional balance during cosmic transitions
- Revitalizing dormant creative potential
- Strengthening resilience against energetic heaviness
- Activating solar plexus chakra for empowered decision-making
