*SAG-GEMINI* Eclipse Season Support



*Energetic* Guidance & Support
for Navigating *NOW*
~ 11.30.2011 ~
*SAG/GEMINI* Eclipse Overview & Support
Click Here for 28-min Audio + Archives


The things we fear most in organizations,
fluctuations, disturbances, imbalances ...
are the primary sources of creativity.
~ Margaret J. Wheatley ~


Hi All ~ I worked Major *Mojo* 11/11 thru 11/22 and then shifted for family obligations and like you, had to *simultaneously* navigate the intense Eclipse energy and incoming Mercury Retrograde. I have used the *Overview* + *Chart* portions of the Sag *Lunar* Tele-Class (11/17) as our Guidance for *NOW*. I just re-listened and found it tremendously useful! Sagittarius time every year, affords you the opportunity to *Deepen Your Truth* and *Expand Your Story* ~ to move from the revelations of Scorpio's *Raw Truth* ... to the inspirations of Sag's *Higher Truth* ... to make *meaning* out of all that has been brought in to the Light. We're also at the *Mid-Point* in the Jupiter Annual Cycle (Sag's Ruler) with one month left to complete the *Editing* Process Jupiter Retrograde brings (every year). Once it moves forward (12/25), so too will ALL that you *Clarify* at THIS time, when the Sun/Moon/Mercury/Venus/North Node all make their way through the sign of the Archer!

I have always thought Scorpio was my favorite time of the year but I'm amending that to include the whole last quarter of the year. Scorpio is the best because it clears out the old, Sagittarius is the best for dreaming up the future and Capricorn is the best for initiating the foundation for those dreams to expand on. I *LOVE* this time of year! It so beautifully supports this natural evolution. I can also testify that after working mojo *WITH* the energies over the years, it has always produced results directly equal to the investment of my own energy. I say that to say, you can invest a little or a lot and yield tangible results based on your efforts.

Another thing to consider is that the Sag *Work*( (11/22-12/22) is leading to the ONLY (almost) 30-day period of the entire year when ALL the planets are moving in forward motion ~ which means NO HOLDING BACK! Dec 25th (Jupiter Direct) until Jan 23rd (2012 - Mars Retro) provides a small window of opportunity to hold your own counsel, tune in to the cosmos and your Higher Self and come up with a new and improved vision for your life. I suggest you use the holiday season to give your Self the GIFT of TIME to reflect and plan. You are standing on this side of a bridge, about to crossover to completely new, and as yet, unknown territory, which deserves more than a fleeting thought.

As I ruminated the relationship between Sagittarius and Capricorn, many things started to dance in my consciousness. The energy of faith, optimism and enthusiasm (Sagittarius) to create a reality (Capricorn) based on your personal Truth (Sag) and ultimate Purpose (Capricorn) for being here. It CANNOT just be the proverbial 'struggle from the cradle to the grave'. 'Survival-Mode' is a state of mind and we have free will and choice to re-vision the "Mode" in which we navigate through this life. We've practiced transmuting 'Survival-Mode' for *Self-Preservation* in recent years and it is starting to pay off. Sag's gift is *Exploring* the possibilities, while Capricorn's gift is turning those possibilities into *Tangible* Reality. We need BOTH energies, and the lessons they bring.

If we can also use the energy of Mercury Retrograde in Sag (11/24 - 12/13) as well as the Sag/Gemini Eclipse Season this month, then NEXT month when ALL Planets are *Direct* for a brief time (12/25 - 1/23/2012) you can work with Capricorn's energy of ... Defining Your Reality ~ Creating Your Structure ~ Building Your Foundation ~ Renewing Your Definitions (of Everything) ... not to mention this is *INITIATING* 2012! It is vital to at least set your *Intentions* during this *OPEN* Field ... it is the most Fiery Creative Energy available for *Change* and Birthing *ANEW*! Yummm!

PS ~ Also consider the on-going Cardinal Cross which directly engages Uranus (Liberation) in Aries (Independence) ~ Saturn (Structure) in Libra (Balanced Relationships) ~ and Pluto (Transformation) in Capricorn (Responsibility) and this is the time it is *Activating* the Pluto in Capricorn "leg" (11/26 - 1/27/2012) making things fairly *Personal* for us all. Your frame of reference should be Spring & Fall Equinox and Summer Solstice, this Winter Solstice *Initiates* a NEW Year of work and the final one that Saturn will contribute to in this particular way. The Cardinal energies have to do with our *Fundamentals* ~ Home/Work ~ Private/Public ~ Self/Others ~ Individual/Collective. This is an EXCELLENT TIME to deeply *process* the past couple of years and recognize the truly *NEW* Level you're at and *NEW* Reality you're living. It is a NEW Day!!

· Take some time to reflect on 2011
· Set intentions for 2012
· Tune in to the forward movement on the horizon
· Clear the old, make way for the new
· NO MORE "RE-" anything ~ you're starting with a CLEAN SLATE
· Release anything you do not want bigger
· Release anything you do not want anchored for the next 16-20 years
· Use discomfort as a motivation to change
· Change sooner than later that which you KNOW needs to be changed
· Do not put off to tomorrow what you can do today
· Use the current energies to "break to realign" whatever needs it most
· Take personal responsibility for your own success
· Face the consequences of past choices and commit to change (from this day forward)
· Do not be extreme but be vigilant
· Do not be rigid but be consistent
· Do not be apathetic or pessimistic but be flexible and relaxed
· Do not be stagnant but finish what you start
· Think bigger, expand your realm and consider other possibilities
· Invite the invisible help of your angels and guides to bring you creative solutions
· Find a need in the community and fill it
· Choose a cause to contribute some energy to (start w. SELF)
· Get out of your comfort zone but have FUN (this does not have to be painful)


Whosoever wishes to know about the world
must learn about it in its particular details.
Knowledge is not intelligence.
In searching for the truth
be ready for the unexpected.
Change alone is unchanging.
The same road goes both up and down.
The beginning of a circle is also its end.
Not I, but the world says it: all is one.
And yet everything comes in season.
~ Heraclietus of Ephesus ~


**Heracleitus of Ephesus (ca. 540-ca. 475 BC) ~ Greek philosopher who thought of the universe as a place of ceaseless change ("flux"), going so far as to suggest that a new Sun was created each day. He believed the fundamental element was Fire, because it was always changing, and felt that evidence from the Senses was untrustworthy and had to be used with caution. He was interested in understanding the processes occurring behind the "veil" of appearances. © 1996-2007 Eric W. Weisstein


ALSO Relevant to *NOW* ...
KARMIC TOOLS ~ Weekly Forecast:
November 27 - December 3, 2011


11/27 ~ Venus (socialize) ~trine~ Jupiter (optimism):

This is a most pleasant energy, although short lived. This is a good time to enjoy some kind of social activity. No pressure - just easy, laid back fun. It can make you prone to laziness, but only if you’re already prone to it. Otherwise, if you are typically constantly on the go, this energy gives you permission to kick back a little and release the usual pressures to produce. Take some time out to “smell the roses” or at least reflect on all that you HAVE accomplished and give your Self due credit for coming this far. This is a good time to go on a vacation or short trip. This energy tends to bring forth rewards for past actions. Take a moment to give thanks to the powers that be which brought you to this point!

12/1 ~ Venus (relationships) ~conjunct~ Pluto (transformation):
This energy intensifies relationships, for better or worse. Because your values and priorities are shifting, relationships must also undergo a similar adjustment. Beware of value differences that can cause power struggles which are unproductive. Try to create circumstances that are win/win, and mutually beneficial, this will allow the relationship to EVOLVE, rather than revolve back into the cycle. It is best to use this energy to consciously transform your personal values and define how you’d like to be engaged with others in the future. You may feel really intense at this time, it is the best time to tap your Infinite creative flow and create something AMAZING!

12/2 ~ Sun (core-Self) ~square~ Mars (passion):
Knowledge is power - and in this case, it is better to know than not know. You KNOW it's going to be a challenging time, so don't act surprised when it happens. This energy's sole purpose is to test the validity of a position you took or a statement you made about six months ago. The Universe, and a couple of humans for good measure, will be pointing out your weaknesses, short-comings, lack of preparation and mistakes you've made. Be careful not to be overly sensitive to others or impatient with the progress, or lack thereof, of your current situation. Be assertive but not belligerent and beware of it in others, toward you. This energy brings conflict with authority figures too. If possible, find a positive, physical outlet for your energy this week. If you don't allow your frustrations to be expressed at all, they will explode in the worst way, at the worst possible time; possibly manifesting themselves in illness or accidents. If you don't feel any aggression, anxiety or frustration then you may be suppressing it all, and again, it WILL manifest, ready or not, so beware. And if you are not suppressing it, you may be projecting it and attracting angry, frustrated people to you. If you work WITH this energy, you have access to the ability to do the work and CREATE an authentic life.

Initial Thoughts on 2011

Initial Thoughts on 2011

2011 opens with 25 days of *forward* motion ~ NO Retrograde Planets. This is auspicious and juicy! These *portals* are small and rare and worth investing some conscious attention to what you are creating with your own personal energy. Every day brings another *gift* of revelation and energetic support. This year supports RE-Establishing *BALANCE* after a major *HEALING*. 1996 - 2010 had Saturn traversing Aries -thru- Virgo, below the surface, behind the scenes, working on the *fundamentals* of our evolving Saturn Reality. It may have felt very personal to many along the way. As it hits Libra, it moves above the horizon and out in to the world to work on the Social/Collective realms, assuming the Individuals have done the groundwork. As Planets *finish* every Sign, Cycle and New Direction ~ very often, there is a *TEST*. I would encourage you to look for the areas of life where you have done the most personal growth and Self-work, honor what is truly *done* and prepare for the *Test*. We never want to look at life's tests as malicious, it is a natural occurrence, not to be feared, but to be embraced! It will validate your level of mastery (more of Saturn's domain).

An astrological chart is basically a *snapshot* of the sky at any given moment, so if you want to know the *energetic blueprint* for anything or anyone, all you have to do is get this snapshot and study it for the *energies and patterns*. The chart of 1.1.2011 @ 00:01am in Washington, DC/USA ~ has 7* Libra on the Ascendant setting the tone for the year. Where's Saturn? That's right, in Libra! This year will reveal much greater *results and rewards* for the Harvest of Fall Equinox / Sept 2010 -thru- Winter Solstice / Dec 2010 and beyond that, many of you will also see the *results and rewards* of the last 2.5 ~ 7 ~ and 14 years as part of the natural Saturn Cycle. According to Barbara Hand Clow in Liquid Light of Sex, when Saturn passes over the Ascendant like this, there is a major *emptying out* of sorts. This leads to the empty space ~ in-between the old and the new ~ the Sweet Spot between Seed & New Life. So that *in-between* vibration continues in 2011, but at a much higher level because so much *healing* has already been integrated.

My guidance from Saturn has shown that the deep and permanent *healing* done 2007-2010 in Virgo is leading to the renewed balance between all levels of Masculine/Feminine energy, Human, Divine and Galactic. To the degree that the Masculine/Feminine *balance* is restored within the Individual, Social and Collective realms, will be revealed 2012-2015 when it enters Scorpio. Theoretically, after a great healing, you cannot jump back in to *life* too soon, balance must *FIRST* be restored. Once you're healed and balanced, then you can start building power, strength and endurance. It is my feeling that *if* we've healed (Virgo) and reestablished balance (Libra), then directing our power (Scorpio) to create a clean, new 3D/reality (Saturn) is granted by Saturn, The Great Teacher. For those who have not done their Saturn Due Diligence may find they're more in touch with Saturn, The Lord of Karma, which always teaches (one way or another) that your outer 3D/reality is a direct reflection of your internal reality and the labor that goes in to maintaining it.

Part of the lesson of the eternal cycle of Saturn and Uranus, especially in Virgo/Pisces (like 2007-2010), is RE-Aligning life as we know it, one aspect of which is being a Spirit (Uranus in Pisces) in Human Form (Saturn in Virgo). Reverberations from the 1960's ring out. Huge (and numerous) major Cycles converged then and now ~ remember, Earth's 26,000 Year Cycle is not anchored in a day. But how incredible is it that we are all here at this particular turn of the Eternal Wheel? Okay, okay, I'll come back down to Earth and say that Jupiter (expansion) and Saturn (consolidation) represent basic principles of Life and also ALWAYS facilitate great shifts in the Social and Collective realms, while deeply activating the Individuals born under their influence along the way.

This leads me to the other Star of the Show for 2011 ~ Jupiter! When I looked up all the Outer Planets' Activations, Jupiter is, by far, the most active with *7* major Activations. Saturn, Uranus, Neptune all have one Activation each and that's it. The rest is up to us Individuals and how we work with the Personal Planets as they zip around the zodiac engaging our Souls on deeper levels than ever before. Jupiter starts the year (1/4) aligning with Uranus, both in Pisces, the end of the zodiac, to complete their *Initiation* of a 14-year Cycle. This will be the first 14-years of Uranus' NEW 84-year Cycle, which is vital, if you are focused on Truth (Jupiter) and Liberation (Uranus). We have our work cut out for us during this time, beginning stages of anything are delicate. The First Test of this Cycle comes in 2013-2014.

But let's get back to 2011 specifically. Where Jupiter is concerned, those with Planets in Aries/Libra and Cancer/Capricorn will be Activated January to June. Those with Planets in Taurus/Scorpio and Leo/Aquarius will be Activated June to December of this year. Jupiter *expands* all that it touches in an effort to educate you, to open you up to a larger vision and deeper version of the Truth as you know it. Aries brings the *clean slate* energy many of you are feeling. It really is the Beginning of a new 12-year Jupiter Cycle. Whatever New Truth and Story you are initiating will be tested in February as it tags Pluto/North Node in Capricorn. This is to, among other things, ensure that your new beginning is clean and will ultimately serve and benefit both YOU & OTHERS. It is time for you to be responsible for your own Truth & Purpose, as well as the Story you're telling with every thought, word and deed.

Then in March, the third and final Activation comes as Jupiter tags Saturn Retrograde in Libra. This is a major (and personal) *Integration*, especially for those with Aries/Libra Planets. For you, I think it will be a matter of re-visioning your own personal reality, in light of Jupiter's education of the last 3-6-9-12 years. How have you suppressed your Truth to please and appease others? This Activation will help you expand your idea of who you are on a core level and reveal where *stability, balance and reciprocity* may be lacking, within or around you. This Activation will stimulate those with Cancer/Capricorn energies in a different way. For you, there will be more movement and choices involved. I suspect that post-Cancer/Capricorn Eclipses, there isn't much left of your OLD Story or OLD Reality. This Activation is designed to push you "out of comfort zone ~ in to new territory". In this case, I think most of your "movement and choices" will have to do will you *choosing* what Story you want to tell NEXT!

By May, the Element of *FIRE* will be Activated by Jupiter (Aries) and the North Node (Sag) and you may feel a wave of energy that carries you right on to the shore of your NEW Truth & Story. This one is tricky because it is one of those Activations that really requires your conscious intent to benefit from the stellar rays, but I think you can receive a *delicious download* regarding the next step on your NEW Path, if you attune to it. I suggest you develop an *outline* of your NEW Story and then review it for its Social relevance and evolutionary potential. What I mean is, it must reflect your own passion and truth, and also, lead to greater things for you and the world. Remember, these are fairly large and general themes. The Signs that are Activated along the way is what will make it feel personal for you. I recommend knowing the dominant pattern of your own energies and lessons.

Stay Tuned for MORE in the months to come!

Heart is Essential to ALL Life

Heart is Essential to ALL Life

Only connect!
Only connect the prose and the passion,
and both will be exalted, and
human love will be seen at its height.
Live in fragments no longer.
Only connect.
~ Edward M Forster, Writer ~


LIBRA: Balance Requires Loving Self & Others
ARIES: Independence Requires Responsibility

HEART
You can live without many organs, but NOT the HEART! That transcends your physicality and reminds you that NOTHING LIVES WITHOUT HEART! And the overall health of any living thing can be assessed by the strength and health of the heart. Venus, when it rules Libra, reminds us that love really does conquer all and not that mushy, passive stuff ~ I'm talking love the *verb* ~ strong, fierce, passionate love. Love of life; love for the planet; love for your work; love for your family; love you would fight and die for ... love you cannot live without!

Where there is LOVE,
there is LIFE.
~ Gandhi ~
  • How is your heart at this time?
  • Physically, the heart (which sustains your life force) is it healthy and strong at this time?
  • Meta-Physically, the heart of your life's work (which feeds and sustains you and your community) is that in proper working order?
  • This year has been pivotal in planting the seeds of your future. How are things growing in your personal garden?
  • Have you planted things that will grow, evolve and feed one another and, ultimately, feed you and others?
  • Have you planted things that will bear fruit and/or bring beauty in to your world?
  • Or perhaps you just realized you need a garden of your own and have been clearing a patch in your life where you will eventually plant the seeds of your future.

Wherever you are in your personal process, the planetary energies are supporting your evolution and reminding you that nothing you do will ever matter if there is no HEART involved.

Libra energy reminds you to connect with inner balance and cultivate community with love and compassion. While Venus, Libra's ruler, is currently traveling through Scorpio, reminding us that seeds germinate in the darkness and planting a garden or building a community can be funky yet necessary work. Venus in Libra will attune you to the beauty, peace and balance. But in Scorpio, she reminds you that beauty is not always pretty but can be fierce and powerful, deep and transformative, but above all, PURE & HONEST.

TIME
During 2010-2012, Saturn is moving through Libra, where it is considered *exalted*. This is a time to re-establish balance within the structure of your body, as well as the structure of your life. It's time to re-negotiate all relationships, partnerships and co-ops, to bring all agreements up to date. This only happens every 28-years, so this is definitely an opportunity to release all toxic interactions (and relationships) and blockages to balance in your life. Now, theoretically, when you change, everyone around you has to change - or go away. There is a path within that has been cleared and now you are better able to commune directly with your own heart, listening to its promptings and following it wherever it leads. If/when you're ready, you will be ready to invite love and abundance in, you have an opportunity to share the "new you" and create new and delicious new collaborations. Power Wishes should focus on magnetizing the people, community, love and abundance that will match your energy and level of consciousness.

Your task is not to seek for love,
but merely to seek and find
all the barriers within yourself
that you have built against it.

~ Rumi ~

Time to delve within your own heart as Venus, Libra's Ruler, asks:

  • Are your priorities in order?
  • What's it worth to you?
  • What is most important to you where love is concerned?
  • What is most important to you where your resources are concerned?
  • Are you worthy of love and abundance?
  • Are the people you are currently invested in worthy (those who get the lion's share of your personal resources of time, energy and often, money)?

RESOURCES
Remember, whatever you invest those precious resources in ~ is telling the Universe that it is what you value the most and what's most important to you. Are the people you have closest to you an accurate reflection of who you are? So often, we block ourselves from love, literally and/or emotionally. Sometimes consciously, owning your fear of commitment, fear of loss or fear of betrayal; sometimes unconsciously, sabotaging things as soon as there is any kind of conflict, real investment or compromise required.

Love and money, Venus' domain, seem to be front and center for many at this time. This is time to focus on how you manifested the relationships you are experiencing now, how worthy of further investment they are and what you are really willing to sacrifice and compromise on.
Are your current relationships: reciprocal? balanced? nourishing? loving? beautiful?

SCORPIO
And with Venus traveling through Scorpio, is it all worth it? where's the substance? where's the deeper connection(s)? Mars recently joined her in Scorpio, where lies, deceit and hypocrisy will not be tolerated provoking folks to ugly outbursts and confrontations, demanding truth. However, be sure if you are in that position (demanding truth from others) that you are prepared to accept the truth you receive.

There is nothing in a caterpillar
that tells you it is going to be a butterfly.
~ Buckminster Fuller ~

Inanna is the Goddess most closely associated with Venus as she expresses the Scorpio side her nature, which suggests that in order to return to the Light, you will have to sacrifice many aspects of your being which you've accumulated over time and which may be weighing you down and blocking love and abundance from fully manifesting in your life. She asks that you look within for a deeper perspective, face your fears and commit to listening to your own heart, acting with courage and integrity in all your associations with others ... and then that will be all you attract.

Libra time is our annual opportunity to focus on relationships, collaborations and what you're cultivating in the community. You will magnetize and bring in the people, places, resources and circumstances which MATCH *YOUR* ENERGY.

*Summer* Solstice ~ 2010
w. Shanta Gabriel
of TheGabrielMessages.com

*CELEBRATE* the LIGHT!
Sacred Marriage of ...
Mother Earth & Father Sky
We are the "Spirit Children"
of this Sacred Union!
The Longest Day: (Excerpt from Molly Hall of Astrology.About.com) "The bright glowing orb we call The Sun is celebrated in many traditions at the Summer Solstice. There are fire dances, bonfires, and in the olden days, the ancients rolled fire wheels down the hills. There's also a long tradition of ritual bathing, dipping in the cleansing waters. Fire and Water are celebrated at the Summer Solstice, along with the Earth as Mother Goddess, at her most abundant. It's a celebration of the Earth, the Feminine and the living natural world."

3rd Annual ~ *Summer* Solstice Celebration

With courage you will dare to take risks,
have the strength to be compassionate,
and the wisdom to be humble.
Courage is the foundation of integrity.
~ Keshavan Nair, Author & Speaker ~

~ Integration ~ Culmination ~

We have extended far and reached the Maximum Light as of *Summer* Solstice ~ this is the *Culmination* of the seeds planted at *Winter* Solstice and brings the Mid-Point of the Annual Solar Cycle ~ Balance & Integration. What intentions did you set? How are they going? What has manifested? What has not? December 2009 was a very powerful time of major reviews, endings and creating a space for what is coming in to perspective and/or manifestation *NOW*. You are completely supported for healing old wounds and freeing up space & energy within your Being to do great things. And like all cycles, one is preparing you to the next. 2010 is a response to 2009 and is simultaneously preparing your for 2011 (and beyond).

This *Sacred* Season is About ...

Assessing & Integrating the Past 6 Months
Initiating Half-Way Mark of the Year
Honoring & Giving Gratitude for the Light
Acknowledging a Turning Point
Using the Sacred Season to Process & Digest
Review Your Choices & Decisions
Tend to Sacred Space & Inner Nourishment (Mental, Physical & Spiritual)
Anchor Sacred Work & Do Behind-the-Scenes Integration
Renewing Your Commitment
Owning Your Power & Inner Authority
Being More Consistently Responsible & Self-Sufficient
Balancing Your Inner Feelings w. Your Outer Actions


One potent addition to the Equinoxes and Solstices is Pluto's 16-year journey through Capricorn, which will directly engage the Sun at each and every turn of the Wheel. There are several other activations and on-going themes, but Pluto's *Purification* and *Distillation* process is the longest and most transformative. A new beginning ~ fresh start ~ clean slate is available through the Jupiter/Uranus in Aries Activation ... and who better to assist with clearing the debris and releasing the non-essential to make *room* for your 'new beginning' ~ than Pluto, Lord of Purification & Transformation. Your essential nature (Sun) and the purest, deepest part of you (Pluto) connect in a rhythm every year, four times a year for 16 years (2008-2024). As it reshapes you from the inside out, so too will the collective shapeshift.

The 4 *ANNUAL* Activations ~ 2008-2024:
~ Initiation ~ Winter Solstice / Capricorn
~ First Test ~ Spring Equinox / Aries
~ Integration ~ Summer Solstice / Cancer
~ Final Test ~ Fall Equinox / Libra


Some astrologers consider Conjunctions, Oppositions and Squares as "hard" and "negative", however, I do not ever subscribe to "blanket rules or assessments" when seasons and human beings are in the mix ~ *ANYTHING* IS POSSIBLE! These connections, which the planets make to each other, facilitate movement and necessary change. If you are ready, open and receptive, they ASSIST you in moving to the next level, creating tangible results and measurable progress. If you are not ready, narrow-minded and/or resistant to change, then yes, it is going to be more challenging ... but you'll be in new territory nonetheless.

The *Initiation* is *Winter* Solstice, when Sun/Pluto get together (conjunction) in Capricorn, increasing each other's power to purify you and your intentions for the coming new year. They advise, "First, you must rest, replenish, mature and gather strength (power)." *Spring* and *Fall* Equinox, when Sun/Pluto have to consciously work out their differences (square), and you are moved possibly out of your comfort zone, but in to new territory. *Summer* Solstice, when Sun/Pluto have to balance and integrate (opposition) all that you've initiated at Spring-time; it's a time of blossoming and expanding and you are moved to accommodate all that you've created in new, innovative ways.

You are *READY*!! Don't look back, practice presence & mindfulness and apply new strategies for living. I hope you'll join us for this celebration.

3rd Annual *Spring* Equinox Gathering

w. Shanta Gabriel



~ New Beginnings ~ Initiation ~ ReBirth ~

When I dare to be powerful,

to use my strength in the service of my vision,

then it becomes less and less important

whether I am afraid.


Living on planet Earth is about natural rhythm and this is an *Initiation* of a new Annual cycle when the Sun enters Aries, the Infant on the Karmic Wheel. *Spring* Equinox honors the Light and initiates forward movement. Whatever additional Planetary Alignments of the time assist, by contributing their power and lessons to the energetic mix. This year, there are many assistants to your *process* of unfoldment, but the *stars* of this initiation are:

16 years ~ Pluto in Capricorn (transformation of reality)

3 years ~ Saturn Retrograde in Libra (restructuring relationships)

8 months ~ Mars in Leo (courage & authenticity)

1 of 12 years ~ Jupiter (truth/story) and ...

7 of 84 years ~ Uranus (freedom/liberation) in Pisces (completion of 7yrs) and moving in to Aries this summer (initiation of 7yrs)




On-going themes still apply, like the Saturn/Uranus, but herein I am referring to the current ANNUAL cycle. And Pluto in Capricorn engages every Equinox and Solstice every year until 2024. Pluto is purifying and transforming what you are truly responsible for, which is ultimately your contribution. A new beginning ~ fresh start ~ clean slate ... and who better to assist with clearing the debris and releasing the non-essential to make *room* for your 'new beginning' ~ than Pluto, Lord of Purification & Transformation. Your essential nature (Sun) and the purest, deepest part of you (Pluto) connect in a rhythm every year, four times a year for 16 years (2008-2024) that Pluto is in Capricorn. As it reshapes you from the inside out, so too will the collective shapeshift.




The 4 *ANNUAL* Activations:

~ Initiation ~ Winter Solstice/Capricorn

~ First Test ~ Spring Equinox/Aries

~ Integration ~ Summer Solstice/Cancer

~ Final Test ~ Fall Equinox/Libra




Some astrologers consider Conjunctions, Oppositions and Squares as "hard" and "negative", however, I do not ever subscribe to "blanket rules or assessments" when seasons and human beings are in the mix ~ *ANYTHING* IS POSSIBLE! These connections, which the planets make to each other, facilitate movement and necessary change. If you are ready, open and receptive, they ASSIST you in moving to the next level, creating tangible results and measurable progress. If you are not ready, narrow-minded and/or resistant to change, then yes, it is going to be more challenging ... but you'll be in new territory nonetheless. Perhaps facing these crossroads and choices will make you more amenable to the current shifts within the very essence of your Being. Most of you know by now, I am ALL ABOUT THE CONSCIOUS CO-CREATION with the available energies. It's my job to tell you what those energies are, it's your job to direct them in your own life and community.




The *Initiation* is *Winter* Solstice, when Sun/Pluto get together, increase each other's power to purify you and your intentions for the coming new year. They advise, "First, you must rest, replenish, mature and gather strength (power)." *Spring* and *Fall* Equinox, when Sun/Pluto have to consciously work out their differences, and you are moved to a new level of understanding by choice or by force, it's up to you and your consciousness to decide. Both Equinoxes bring the push to the next level in their individual ways. *Spring* Equinox is about initiation, new beginnings, getting things moving in a forward direction. *Fall* Equinox is about assessment of the harvest, how productive and effective you have been throughout the year. Both require decisions and are dynamic in nature, facilitating actual change. *Summer* Solstice, when Sun/Pluto have to balance and integrate all that you've initiated at Spring-time; it's a time of blossoming and expanding and you are moved to accommodate all that you've created in new, innovative ways.




You are *READY*!! Don't look back, practice presence & mindfulness and apply new strategies for living. I hope you'll join us for this celebration.




At this time, YOUR personal ...

Wounds will be healed

Connections will be made

Truths will be revealed

Innate strengths and gifts will be remembered

Fragments of your Self will be re-integrated & anchored




There is power in intent, and even more with the group energy all being directed at the same time for the upliftment of the global community, of which you are a primary part. What we are coming together to co-create transcends language, like art and music, energy needs no translation ... you FEEL it.

Turning point / crossroads

New beginnings, seed-planting and initiation

Fiery creativity, fertility and blossoming energy

Resurrection, renewed life and vitality (within you and your environment)

9-Month Gestation ~ Labor ~ New Birth



~ 9-Month Gestation ~
~ Prep for Labor ~ Honor New Birth
How Saturn, Uranus & Pluto
Are Changing Your World

"In Initiations, spending a significant period of time
under difficult conditions is part of the dismemberment
that severs one from ease and complacency.
As an Initiatory passage, it will come to a conclusion,
and the newly "sanded down" woman [person]
will commence a refreshed and enwisened
spiritual and creative life."
~ Clarissa Pinkola-Estes in Women Who Run With the Wolves ~

If Winter Solstice/December 2008 was the "Initiation" ~ then where do you stand 9-months later, with 3-months left to go on this year's evolution? How can you consciously contribute to living a "refreshed and enwisened spiritual and creative life"?

Join us for the Sacred Seasons when we discuss cycles and the energies available. If you missed any previous gatherings and would like to receive the audio, notes and personal activations, please Email Kelly with your request plus your Name and Birth Date / Time / Place (if I do not have it).

Back in December 2008, Pluto was working (for the first time) directly with the personal planets in Capricorn, clearing space for what Saturn in Virgo is ready to build *NOW*. As Saturn moves in to Libra over the next year, it will spend close to 3 years working with the Lord of Transformation to lay the foundation for the next 30 years (and beyond). This suggests that ... the thread that links *ALL* LIFE on this planet and the duality that forces us to cultivate balance (Libra) in our every move is the MOST IMPORTANT factor when considering what we will build (with Capricorn) to serve and support a large group of people (culture, community, country, society at large). The lessons of Libra and Capricorn are *BALANCE* and *RESPONSIBILITY* (respectively). The planets facilitating these lessons are Saturn and Pluto, who will teach you these lessons each in their own unique way, but bring them together and you will truly not be the same person on the other side of these particular activations, nor will it be the same physical world.

Saturn teaches through exposing the cracks in your personal foundation, where you are weak, fearful, frustrated, stagnated, and where you lack commitment and inner authority to make good choices for the long term/big picture (30 year cycle). (Whatever Sign your Saturn is in will have further implications worth examining.) Pluto teaches through exposing your deepest, darkest fears and blowing up any pent up, repressed, unexpressed natural energies ... leaving you raw, completely vulnerable and without any visible assistance (Invisible Assistance is needed here and always available). Pluto is the Ultimate Healer because it goes to the *ROOT* and prepares a truly *CLEAN & CLEAR* space for rebirth or re-creation to happen. You should want this clean start, because very often, 'how you start is how you finish'. So your own inner toxicity levels will determine how long and difficult the clean up will be. Whatever is dead within or around you must be removed for new life to even be able to take root. Pluto in Capricorn will leave us all with a renewed commitment to being responsible, individually and collectively, for the planet (and anything else) which gives and supports LIFE. We know the macro level manifestation of this, but on an individual level, what are you doing to clear a space, to live a life that PRESERVES LIFE & LIGHT?

These two TOGETHER ~ yikes! Change is inevitable, so you should consciously co-create when it is possible ... which is ALWAYS!! Your thoughts, feelings, words and deeds all manifest and, therefore, contribute to the collective results. This will not be easy, but it can be beautiful. We have a double dose of Saturn because it also rules Capricorn, which leads me to believe that we are *BUILDING* twice as much as we are *BULL-DOZING* (with Pluto). Pluto's most delicious contribution to Saturn's 'building' is that this is an unprecedented opportunity to build on *CLEAN* slate! Venus gets involved as She is the ruler of Libra and this too, is poignant. This reminds me of a quote from one of my teachers, on Venus ...

"Remembering that ...
the opposite of "aesthetic" is "anesthetic".
There is no solution to anything unless Venus is involved
- unless beauty and love are present.
"
~ Caroline W. Casey of CoyoteNetworkNews.com ~

Venus rules what we cultivate, where our priorities lie and what we value most about life. Adding Her to this potent mix can ONLY HELP! Venus also rules magnetics, how/what/who you attract. Venus is considered a personal planet; Saturn, a social planet; and Pluto, a collective planet. Venus has an 8 year Cycle; Saturn, a 28 year Cycle; and Pluto, a 248 year Cycle. So you can see how each affects us at these different levels, and now, simultaneously. It's now officially *ALL* vital ~ individuals / communities / species ~ ALL are vital and participating in the current evolution.

You can (and will) contribute to this evolution in ways that are likely closest to your own nature. Do you do things with calm, ease and grace? Or do you plan and execute with force and sheer will? Would you like to change from one way, to the other? Ahhh ... where does this lead? Right back to *BALANCE*. How about a delicious combination, in equal measure (by your own definition), the strong commitment and unwavering dedication (it usually requires to 'plan and execute with force') ... and ... self-assured grace, style and faith in Divine Time & Order. Yummmm! Use the available Elements, Air & Earth, at their most challenging and creative combination. This takes ideas and concepts and makes them tangible and 'real' (in some way). We must have balanced, creative thought ~co-creating~ with physical work in order to create positive, tangible, useful results. Squares in astrology sometimes mean "squaring off" and sometimes "crossroads/turning points" but always, they mean "moving out of a comfort zone and in to new territory". And from several years of close observation, I can attest to them also manifesting in both challenging and exciting, happy and sad, productive and debilitating ways. It usually comes down to your own individual nature, your available inner strength and fortitude, your personal view of the circumstances (pessimistic or optimistic) and ultimately, your faith and innate desire.

What do you want? How do you define "quality" of life? These *3* planets will assist with this very process ... aahhh - another useful Trinity! Tune in. Invite their energies to animate through you, in the Highest possible way. Embody each planet in the most positive way you can conjure at this time. Co-create. It is time. It is also completely supported. Envision the Infinite Potential of *NOW* ... go with it and build something even better than before.

Sacred Rhythms ~ Ancient & Ever-New


How Divine is it that Virgo precedes Libra! Virgo is the lesson of *DISCERNMENT* ~ discerning what's relevant, useful, healthy, real ... or not. It prompts us every year to take inventory of ourselves and our lives. Theoretically, in preparation for moving in to Libra time when people and culture get involved or become the focus. The Leo New Moon (Aug 20th) set your new intentions for the authentic *YOU*, now a month later, Virgo New Moon (Sept 18th) asks you to perfect *YOU* before you interact or collaborate with others. With all the intensity of "now", plus the several rare planetary alignments, plus the usual activations and seasonal shifts, it can be very challenging to "tend to the details" the way Virgo would prefer. BREATHE. Instead of giving in to the overwhelmed feelings (Shadow Pisces), tune in to the fact that this is the *LAST* Virgo/Pisces Lunation that you will have the added juice of Saturn/Uranus contributing to your work of 'out with the old / in with the new' while mastering your Human/Physical Self and your Spiritual/Divine Self. (Also, keep in mind that both these major planets are moving in to the Aries/Libra dynamic next which will bring on a whole new set of lessons and activations.)

Everything is preparing you for the next thing. 2009 started with a Venus theme and ends with a Mars theme that will dominate 2010. This suggests that if you get your priorities renewed and realigned (Venus) this year, you will be in a much better position to determine your true and deepest desires (Mars) next year, which will position you to finally take some much-needed action steps toward building and creating a life that better reflects your Truth & Purpose. Right now, Mercury is Retrograde assisting with the *REVIEW* process, supporting everyone who turns within right now. It's time to gather a little more information, clarity and understanding before moving on whatever you are discovering about your Self these days. All is not what it seems, most likely. This may actually be a good thing because it leaves room for your conscious intent and Great Spirit to move things around before they are too solid to change.

Where we are now began with Winter Solstice 2008. ALL of December 2008 was Infinitely potent, and by the end of the month, we had Sun, Mercury, Mars (3 of the personal planets) and Jupiter (social planet) joining Pluto (collective planet) in Capricorn, the sign of responsibility, stability and integrity. *FALL* Equinox 2009 brings an opportunity to analyze, digest and assimilate the first full year of Pluto in Capricorn so strongly activating the Solstices and Equinoxes (4 times per year for the next 16 years) ... You are preparing for the coming new Solar year at Winter Solstice ~ December 2009. What have you learned about dancing so closely with Pluto, Lord of Transformation? What have you gained? What have you lost? Use this *FALL* Season to identify what is solid and useful and what is finally ready to be released back in to the Infinite Void of creation.

*FALL* Equinox 2009 also moves some of the personal planets along from Virgo in to Libra, reminding you this is also a time for *BALANCE* ~ of Dark/Light ~ of Feminine/Masculine ~ of Inner/Outer. Pluto being so intricately linked to the Sacred Seasons for the next 15+ years, gives you unprecedented support for the changes you are ready, willing and able to make. At the turn of each Season, there will be intense transformation added to the already potent mix. The Solstices are all about Initiation/Integration and the Equinoxes are all about Growth/Development. Depending on your own alchemical mix, there will be a certain degree of "out of the comfort zone" for everyone. Use it as *FUEL* to facilitate change within your own Being, your own life and your own community. (Resistance and procrastination will prolong the pain and delay your good.)

The issues being brought in to the Light at this time are ...

~ Harvest ~
Assess what you've produced/accomplished
in the last 6-months and 1-year
~ Evaluate & Rectify ~
Assess what worked and what did not work
~ Balance & Integrate ~
Assess what you need to do/have/be
more or less of - going forward
~ Pause for the Cause ~
Transition times are times to be still,
tune in and prepare for new season

Though this is profoundly personal, individual work, many of us share the desire and intention to live in a diverse, peaceful, thriving & dynamic community. How and when that (peaceful and thriving) community manifests, lies within each individual. We are strengthened, fortified and uplifted every time we remember we are NOT ALONE. A solid connection and sense of belonging are incredibly sacred gifts that we will share during this season of *HARVEST* ~ adding juice and power to our individual and collective intentions.

I hope you will join us for the next in a series of dynamic and powerful gatherings of the ever-expanding, truly Infinite Power Circle. Karmic Tools.com Members are from all parts of the US, plus well over 50 other countries around the world. There are countless others organizing major group events around the globe throughout this month of power! That is a lot of potent energy to bring together, even for a few minutes! We are encouraging you to do *SUNRISE* Solo Meditation and then join me and Leilah for our annual celebration of *FALL* Equinox and the turn of the Sacred Seasons.

Throughout Taurus time, we are deeply supported for cultivating inner and outer lives of beauty and sustenance. Think in terms of a garden and what you are planting, cultivating and nurturing to grow and evolve *TOGETHER* into something that reminds you how the whole (your life) is greater than the sum of its parts (various aspects of your Being). A plant here or there, a vegetable here or there, is a good start, but imagine a garden that contains ALL YOU CAN IMAGINE would/could feed your heart and soul, as well as your mind and body. A space of your own creation that calms you down and fills you up. A space that blossoms in response to your loving care. This can be a literal garden, and I highly recommend planting something this season that symbolizes the growth you are aiming to achieve. But more importantly, this is an *ESSENCE* ... a *RESONANCE* you want to tune in to that yields results that may be invisible, but are no less tangible and necessary for life on this planet.

Keep in mind as you review the planetary assistance, that this whole week (and next week too), you should be moving through your daily life with a certain reverent quality, an inner knowing that something *BIG* is moving the molecules around and positioning every living thing to receive more *LIGHT* and *LOVE*. This coming weekend of May 9-11, we have The Rebirth Celebration, a Global Meditation organized by Joseph Giove of CommonPassion.org. All week, you should be tuning in to your abundance and balance ~ your true wealth and blessings ~ to releasing the non-essential and making room for what Joseph calls, "an unprecedented opportunity to cooperate with the forces of evolution to fulfill individual and collective purposes, and to create a sustainable world of harmony, abundance and balance with Nature". It is time. The planets, energies and benevolent entities all support this evolution.
*2* Events *THIS* Week ~ May 5th & 7th
We are gathering for a tele-class *TOMORROW* Tues / May 5th @ 8:45pm edt to go over the Scorpio Full Moon energy and much of this will be covered in detail so I encourage you to join us. The core group which is growing and evolving individually and collectively, is also deeply dedicated to this conscious work so if you feel called to join us, I am more than happy to honor the Early Bird $20 *-or-* 2-for-$35 if you would like to receive both Taurus New Moon and Scorpio Full Moon Audios + Activations. If money is an issue, *Love Offerings* are deeply appreciated and equally welcome!

Taurus/Scorpio Lunation ~ April/May 2009
We are finishing up our New Moon in Taurus work this week, in preparation for Saturday's Scorpio Full Moon culmination on Sat/May 9th. What seeds have you planted? What are you cultivating? within your Being? and within your Community? What needs pruning? What needs re-positioning to receive more Light? The Sun/Moon in Taurus are in a good angle to Pluto in Capricorn, assisting you with integrating the current evolution of your inner and outer selves. Venus (values/priorities) and Mars (desires/passions) in Aries (courage/independence) are being tested by Pluto in Capricorn (responsibility/dedication), so your values and desires are still being distilled to something that better reflects all the hard work you've done in the last couple of months re-inventing your Self. Get out of your comfort zone and *IMPROVISE* often!

Beltane / Sacred Season ~ May 6, 2009
We reach true Beltane on Wed/May 6th when the Sun reaches 15º Taurus. This is a cross-quarter/Sacred Season and half-way mark between Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice - how's that going in your world? Spring Equinox (March 20th) released a *LOT* of potent, new beginning energy, really got things moving and introduced some new possibilities. That is a turning point, crossroads and a 6-month process, leading to Fall Equinox, when you will "harvest" all that you have activated this year. However, before the 'harvest', Summer Solstice will give you a chance to balance and integrate what is working, and release what is not. And even before that can happen, we have *NOW*, these Sacred Portals and beautiful opportunities every 6-weeks to check in on progress and see what is developing and what needs a little tweaking; what's blossoming and what's wilting; what invigorates you and what drains you. Tune in to your rhythm and flow because you are officially in the orb of MAGIC! Don't allow what's missing or not working (lack or limitation) block your view of all that is manifesting to support and uplift you at this time. Count your blessings!

Mercury Retro in Gemini/Taurus ~ May 7, 2009
Many of you know from the recent Venus & Pluto changing directions in April, that when planets do that, they beam concentrated energy down to us that you can direct consciously if you choose. The month of May has Mercury, Neptune and Chiron Retrograding and Saturn & Mercury going Direct. Thur/May 7th we have Mercury, which barely got its toes wet in Gemini, Retrograding back primarily through Taurus which is a golden opportunity to review your thinking and ideas to see if they are grounded, practical and solid by the time it goes forward at the end of the month (May 30th) and gives you the green light to *SHARE* and *EXPRESS* your inner beauty and outer usefulness! Get creative and reflect on the tools you use to get through life, tangible and intangible tools, and see where you can *BEAUTIFY* them ~ where you can breathe life in to them that vibrates and tickles your senses as well as help you navigate and get through the current shift. Beauty and Usefulness. Intangible Energy and Tangible Tools.

Saturn Direct in Virgo ~ May 16, 2009
I've been working on KarmicTools.com behind the scenes with Saturn Retrograde in Virgo ALL YEAR dreaming up a *NEW* structure (Saturn) and experimenting with various *NEW* systems (Virgo) in my everyday (6th House) world. How has your *health & daily routine * structure & systems* been healed, re-worked & re-defined over the last 5 months? We are going to discuss this in detail on the Saturn call May 14th (Click Here for Overview), but I recommend using this time and potent, concentrated energy to breathe new life (and form) in to your Being, your Truth and your Sacred Space (as I am doing now with my website). Most of you know that KarmicTools.com is expanding, as I personally shift, evolve and expand. I am deeply grateful for your patience, faith and support during this process. I want KarmicTools.com to be both *FUNCTIONAL* and *BEAUTIFUL*. Taurus energy requires *SENSUALITY* ~ Activating our deep need for *BEAUTY* and *PEACE* and *SUSTENANCE* and *FLAVA / SPICE* ... and ... Taurus also reminds us that any "useful" item (from ideas to tangibles) can ALSO be beautiful and delicious and can often delight the senses and awaken the soul while also serving a purpose and being practical.

MARS: The *KEY* to *NOW* ~ Heal Your Desire Nature & Honor Your Self

We have such major shifts going on, and things seem to be so 'rapid-fire', you may not always feel like you have the time or energy to process them completely. This is when you should invite your Invisible Assistants to pick up where you cannot continue. I heard someone say recently that they thought their guides must be busy with so many souls going through changes at this time that they are unavailable for them. And I want to tell you ... THERE IS NO TIME IN GOD!! Time, energy and resources, apparently limited by our human perspective, are all truly UNLIMITED for Great Spirit. You need only extend the invitation, open to receive the benefits and give gratitude faithfully. I am reminded of a poem Wayne Dyer used in his book, Your Sacred Self.

BROKEN DREAMS
by Lauretta P. Burns
As children bring their broken toys
with tears for us to mend.
I brought my broken dreams to GOD
Because He was my Friend.

But then instead of leaving Him
in Peace to work alone,
I hung around and tried to help
With ways that were my own.

At last I snatched them back and cried
"How can You be so slow"?
"My child," He said,
"What could I do?
You never let them go."

This is a perfect illustration of Mars' typical impatience and Saturn's typical 'know it all' attitude. Let us find a Higher expression within. You want to work with both of these energies or they become toxic and will poison you and those around you. We are amidst a major cycle I would like to illuminate so you can have some food for thought. Mars rules our desire nature, our urge to *do* in the world, ruling our passions and that which motivates us to action. So, what do you REALLY WANT? out of life? out of relationships? out of a career? It's all very personal too! Saturn rules our definition of reality, what you consider "real" and the structure/foundation of your life. More importantly, Saturn rules your inner authority (and how you perceive authority in the world). So are you feeling stable and in-control of your own life or totally out of control and dominated by forces outside of you? I feel intuitively that understanding this energy is the key to navigating *now*. You have to be crystal clear about what you want and what you are will to be responsible for.

Mars' pattern or cycle is a two year process. Last July 2008, Mars initiated a new 2-year cycle with Saturn when they both got together in Virgo. Because of the larger Saturn/Uranus cycle, what may have been a simple initiation any other year, now takes on a much broader perspective and the results of your choices (and actions) will have long term reverberations.

So let's consider.

July 2008 ~ Mars gets together with Saturn in Virgo (and opposes Uranus in Pisces a month later, August 2008). This initiates a process. Saturn won't be in Virgo again for 30 years so this is your chance to anchor Virgo's HEALING of your true DESIRE for stability by your own definition and a major healing of your personal structure. What happens when these two get together is, your buttons get pushed because you realize that your reality (Saturn) actually does not truly reflect what you really want (Mars) and Mars energy wants to act but Saturn resists (for a variety of reasons - fear, doubt and all kinds of "realistic" inner dialogue that lists all the reasons why you can't really have what you want). Then you are ANGRY. This is actually a GOOD THING!! Rage to outrage, people, mobilize that energy - direct it - get fired up - you SHOULD be angry and yes, initially you will be angry with Self because in Virgo, ALL the flaws, mistakes and poor choices are glaringly obvious. Breathe. All is not lost. Bringing it in to your awareness is the first step.

December 2008 ~ Mars gets together with the Sun and Pluto in Capricorn pushing your buttons on who you are and what you want, along with Pluto's purifying principle. So if you did not do the work earlier, things intensified here. I ask you, over the last year, how have the things you want for your Being, your life, career & contribution, family & community all shifted? Are things you used to deeply believe changed dramatically? I am finding in my own life and in my dealings with other people that most people's ideas and concepts of who they are and where they would be by this time in their lives have all changed in ways they could've never predicted. It's all good. (I know - it doesn't always *feel* good - but TRUST SPIRIT!)

I remind you of the cycles of ... Initiation ~ Test ~ Integration ~ Test ~ Completion/Initiation. AND I remind you that in Virgo/Pisces, you are definitely working the half-way/completion modes of your life and Being where Mars (what you want) and Saturn (your reality and foundation/structure) are concerned.

April 2009 ~ Mars now joins Uranus in Pisces (and opposes Saturn in Virgo) causing change, ready or not, here it comes. No less anger or frustration with the process or the aspects of your Being or life being illuminated which you have relegated to the dark corners of your mind and dropped the veil of illusion telling your Self all is .... (fill in the blank - your delusion of choice). Breathe.

My recommendation for this time is stillness first and foremost. The truth is you still have a year to pull it together and maximize the benefits of these three planets getting together. Mars, Saturn and Uranus. Pure desires. Inner authority. Authentic freedom and liberation from the past. Virgo/Pisces ~ purity and bliss ~ physical/spiritual integration and mastery ~ trust and discernment. Are these not worth the effort and investment of time and energy to clarify your intentions to the Universe? You are so beautifully supported for a HEALING above all else where these energies and entities are concerned. You can heal the Mars part of your Being so that you are loving what you do and doing what you love ~ being a Spiritual Warrior ~ leading the way with passion! You can heal the Saturn part of your Being so that you are truly the author of your own life story, responsible for all that you are and all that you create and share in the world, making your contribution so that the world is slightly better than the day before. You can heal the Uranus part of your Being that MUST BE FREE ~ that aspect of your Soul which cannot be caged or contained ~ that aspect that KNOWS there is more to the very essence of your existence and truly, deeply believes in the Oneness of the Infinite Universe.

Follow the link for useful Audio, Articles and Divinations covering the span mostly between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox but this heightened intensity is part of a 2 year cycle initiated in July 2008.

Pisces 2009 Forecast

This month you should keep in mind that there are many larger energies moving in the background of what I cover herein. These larger themes influence the monthly energies we all experience.

*Saturn in Virgo ~ Opposite ~ Uranus in Pisces ~ is moving individuals and the collective in to new territory and only bringing that which is healthy, balanced, stable and sustainable from the past. This energy forces you to break old patterns ... just remember to CREATE *NEW* ones too! Intent is key!

*Leo/Aquarius Eclipses ~ are still fresh in the air indicating the crossroads we all face with learning to love Self and serve the Community. The Eclipses generally shake things up to give you the opportunity to make adjustments or corrections in these areas of your life. This is sometimes creative, sometimes chaotic, most often, both. It is, however, the best time to discover how amazing it feels to be a part of something bigger than your personal drama, the perfect time to set aside ego, lighten up a bit and look around for who/what needs your energy? your contribution? your unique gift?

*Jupiter in Aquarius ~ is in the background all year stirring up the Aquarius section of our individual and collective lives. It is bringing *IDEALS* in to the light to be examined. How have your ideals shifted over the last 12 years? What ideals would you like to be experiencing for the next 12 years? It’s journey last year, through Capricorn, should’ve revealed what/how you want to contribute to society; this year, through Aquarius, you will learn where it is most needed; next year, through Pisces, you will infuse it with your Spirit; and when Jupiter hits Aries, you better be ready to *LIVE* your NEW Story!

*Pluto in Capricorn ~ is initiating a 16-year journey through the Capricorn section of our lives, purifying and distilling our society to reflect a more global Truth & Purpose, which serves and supports ALL LIFE. Ahh, there is much work to be done, yes, but just think how wonderful to have the power of Pluto assisting us.

There are likely more but these four popped in to my head right away.
