NEW MOON Solar Eclipse in Taurus, April 29, 2014- Transforming words may open to pleasure

Where are you heading on your path? The Lunar Eclipse occurred 2 weeks ago and the Grand Cross became exact again on April 23, 2014. The planets and signs involved were Pluto in Capricorn, Uranus in Aries, Jupiter in Cancer and Mars in Libra all at 13 degrees. That squaring of planets is helping to push you out of your rut and into motion again to let go of the past. Oh no, not that again. You say you like the past. It’s ok to ponder for the things you learned and maybe enjoyed. Why hold on? Let it go already. Eclipses are about releasing yet bring about new beginnings. Things present themselves differently. This upcoming New Moon Solar Eclipse is just one opportunity to help you release that which no longer is an important part of your life. Many things are changing and have moved out of the past even though you may fail to see this presently. There is still much darkness hovering around and the deceptive qualities of those who are walking in the darkness continue to seep through. And Sabian symbol says that it is a decorated Christmas tree. Speaks of keeping the Light shining no matter what negatives appear around you.

The NEW MOON Solar Eclipse in Taurus at 2:14am EDT on Tuesday, April 29, 2014 is at 8 degrees 52’. Those of you who have planets between 4 and 12 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius will be more intensely affected. What does this New Moon say to you? Taurus is all about values. Taurus likes walking in nature and is very patient. Taurus until pushed will be quite accepting of all but pushed one step too far and that angry bull shows up. It happens only in extreme circumstances. Whatever you enjoy and appreciate is about Taurus. It can be mental, spiritual, physical or emotional. Where do you cling to something? Taurus tends to do that if out of balance. In your chart you can tell where this may happen. Tagore said,” Why did the flower fade? I clutched it to my heart in excess of feeling and crushed it. Why did the lamp go out? I shielded it with my cloak and it got no air.”

That is what this NEW MOON Solar Eclipse is about. Letting people and things go that no longer are a part of your life. The purpose has been served. Where it falls in your chart also indicates a place where you can be more productive beyond the material world. Are you fearful of losing loved ones or possessions? This New Moon leads you to be more established and secure on all planes of existence. A Taurus is very sensual in aspects of life. It likes the sensory world- to touch, to feel, to experience fully all that surrounds them. I think that is where the hugging the tree comes from. . How have you been holding up your ego? This is also a time of sacrificing your ego for something else. Openings come if you do this.

Mercury is conjunct the New Moon in Taurus and trines Pluto in Capricorn. This truly is about using words to heal. Yet many of you will be pulled into the mainstream news which is a form of conditioning and does work in a negative way. So words can be used many ways. Just watch for the brainwashing that comes out of the media which can flow so smoothly and affect you without you being aware. Put your good intentions out there now after the eclipse takes place. Mercury is helping you stay focused and without being overwhelmed. You may have brought back your power at the Grand Cross and also done some intention writing. This is the time to check on those intentions and use your imagination to bring them to you. With Neptune sextile (good) the New Moon there is a fantasy influence to this energy. Focus on being creative also since you may come up with a winner. Since Pluto is trine the New Moon Solar Eclipse it may also help you to transform your life through your values where it is in your chart without too much effort. If you are looking to improve your self-worth and need to release the negative, go for it now. It can be magical. Trust your gut feelings and watch who you choose as your guru these days.

In my own chart the New Moon is quincunx (inconjunct) to Neptune. I may find the opportunity to refine my higher vision and bring that truth to the world. Tells me to stop taking on too many things (Sun inconjunct Neptune). I cannot do everything for everyone. And It is worth waiting for if it is in line with my vision. Sun/Moon square Pluto is a time to purge old emotions and use it to create something which is powerful. Unusual concepts may arise and come to fruition. YAY!
This New Moon Solar Eclipse is connected to the Saros Cycle eclipses of 1995. What were you doing back then 19 years ago and where were you on your path? Are there any similar occurrences going on in your life? The energy of the Solar Eclipse will travel through much of the summer. A door may open in that timeframe and you may recognize it only if you pay attention. This can be a big kickstart for a new direction. Some relationships may have closed a chapter yet now are opening to deeper intimacy and true connection with material support. Integrity is very important here too! It is time to go beyond the before and be in the now. The old you has gone and whatever pain is still lingering and old wounds kept you stymied it is now time to let go and release them totally. Your power is waiting for you within. Detach and let go completely.

This is a Solar Eclipse New Moon about our stuff. What you own, desire, pine over and how it makes you feel. Whether it is a piece of art or an old porch; whether it is a stack of CDs that overtake your den or a comfy couch that everyone chooses to recline; that is your stuff. And what is it that makes you feel pleasure? That also is included in the mix. Jump into the senses because along with all the craziness of the other energies, this is who Taurus is. Endurance is the word and if you get bored with being in the moment, try it anyway. It may change your life.

Happy good luck to you on the path enjoying the moment. Many blessings and a big thank you to all who read this. Until again. Love, Jan

Groundhog Day, FORGIVENESS and YOU!

So the lights went out in the Super Bowl. It probably caused much havoc financially for those in control. How much fear did it create for those in attendance? How much for those of you watching? It is about fear and you are most tired of hearing me talk of this. You need to be aware of what is going on in your life and on our great Planet Earth. Many of you are feeling stressed about a variety of things. How many of you feel your life is like the day that passed—Groundhog Day? Everything is the same over and over again.  Have you changed anything yet? Or are you that conditioned? Do you notice how there are many people who come into your life who create disturbances and more so lately? Tension is building and you need to continue paying attention. But then again you can stay with the lights out and keep living your Groundhog Day.  As Bob Dylan said,” Times they are a-changin’ “. And the energy is certainly coming to us in a new way. Haven’t noticed yet? Pay attention dear ones.

Since I keep talking about clearing out the fear and all the other junk that pervades your mind what can you do about it?  Do you know how to get peace and harmony in your life? Is it by being stubborn and logical? Logic works if you are working with logarithms or other mathematical computations.  Does running away from those fears hamper or help your well-being, your interactions or your basic thinking? What do you think? How about giving love and see what happens. I am sure there are those of you who will cry out and say, that is a bunch of hooey. Really? How many of you feel love in your heart, in your life, anywhere you are? Do you give it freely or do you keep it all to yourself because you are so fearful of no one returning that love to you? What does it matter if they return it? Love is something you need to send out no matter what happens. Some of you may feel you don’t deserve it. Well, you do but you have convinced yourself because past patterns and deeply ingrained negatives have influenced you. You want it to be the way you have been trained and it has to be perfect in your eyes. Ironically you are perfect in God’s eyes and who cares what others think?

First of all you need to forgive as a starting point in order for you to feel love. If you hold onto the junk, resentment, anger and guilt take over creating a maelstrom within.  Is that what you choose? Many of those individuals in the highest places would like to see you stay in your fear place. Fear allows others to control you unless you recognize it and start loving yourself. Take a look at your own life and see who controls you? Seriously, look deeply within and admit it. You are controlled by someone or their actions. What can you do? Recognize it and stand up to it. Send love to all with whom you have any difficulties. It shifts the energy.  I know it works since I have tried it in my life. Before a meeting send love to all the individuals present. If you know someone is trying to undermine you, send love. What about those family members who get under your skin? LOVE them. This is real. LOVE is all that is real. For those on your paths already, you know this is true and it makes things flow considerably well.  Boss is in an uproar and he wants to see you now. Send love before you meet. What a difference. Your spouse is on the warpath due to whatever you did or said, send them love. See them smiling again. How about a help me God walk through this. Thank you. Amen. Why would anyone fear love? What does love really mean to you? Forgiveness is the first step to bringing the peace to your heart.  Then send the love and watch the changes take place. And if you resist this, then Groundhog Day is ongoing. Start to forgive and shift to love. Another good thing to look at is EFT-Emotional Freedom Technique or Tapping. Will write about it soon.

Be blessed. Watch for Full Moon in Aquarius post for February 10, 2013. Until again. Lots of love, Jan

Round and Round You Go Where You Stop is Up to You- Welcome to 2012

What a year! Wow! Happy New Year to you! So, here we are 3 days into 2012 and something feels different. Have you noticed anything in the past few days? Have any of you felt stopped on the tracks the last few months, maybe the whole year? According to Kryon, we are still moving ahead in the NOW and may not feel the energy in the perspective of the old paradigm. I have felt stopped for a few months now and then when I thought about how the energy is changing, I realized that there has been movement forward yet my perspective is still catching up.  2011 was a year of ups and downs for many of you, including me. Not sure where everyone is heading but I do know that life is quickly shifting to a higher wave of energy. And once your energy begins to speed up even more, start noticing how others around you who may be lagging behind or no longer are part of your life, just fade away. This is the focus of 2012. Please hop off the doomsday bandwagon, because if you intend good times and bringing in a Higher Consciousness, then what do you think will happen? Do you really feel that the earth is going to be blown to pieces? That is what the mainstream media is portraying and so many are on that gloom and doom merry-go-round. Why not stop that circus now? They are conditioning you to think that way if you have even given it one second of thought. Why would our Divine Creator choose to destroy the planet? It is most likely the end of the linear timeframe as we have been taught.

What can you do to celebrate this awesome energy that is becoming so regenerating? Have you felt it fully? Are you hiding in a closet? Not paying attention? Well, why haven’t you allowed it to come into your life? It is here, you know. How can you think about moving forward in big leaps, in fact, in a cosmic leap if you refuse to pay attention? Some of you will be able to leap forward, hop that train and start moving forward sooner than later. Others may still have to clear out some residue from the past and it may be a bit slower. And there are those of you who have done nothing with intention and keep grazing in the grass. Are you waiting for the bull to come along and gives you a shove?  Uh oh! There are many who have had false starts in the past couple of years. It is time to regroup and clear and go on. Some will reconnect, others will meet anew. There are those of you who are moving to new destinations and then others who will stay in the same place major surprises may come out of the blue.

You need to let the past go? Goodness, it sounds like nagging, doesn’t it? That would be the ultimate thing to do. Release and clear out all those fears…yes, you have fears. Dear ones, look around, do you really have anything to fear? I can tell in your voices, that some fears are still present. You need the past, you say. Of course you do. Memories are wonderful. You have learned so many wonderful things in the past. Take what you need and move forward to what is truly on your path. As the energy speeds up those who are attuned to this energy will find that things you did 20 years ago have little interest unless it is part of your path. And people who have been in your life, for all that time, have been there for a reason. If they no longer enhance your joy, then why hold on? Are you hanging onto a memory or the actual person or thing? Why? Does the person or thing still serve a purpose, enhance your creativity, and make you laugh? Have you closed the door on your present so you can hide in the past? That is fear dear ones. Plain, ordinary fear! What a wonderful feeling it is to release that part of your life that no longer excites you, supports you or nourishes your being. The quicker you release and clear out, the more space you have for your next adventure, the new you.

 Keep the negativity at bay. I am finding that the clearer I become, the more exciting my life is. It sparkles with joy.  Are you willing to allow you to become who you are meant to be? Are you willing to be your authentic self? Think about how your life can be IF you allow the goodness to be present within. Dear ones, keep those worries out of your life. Let no one pull you into that place anymore.

 I am going to share some info with you. No fear please, but it does make me furious and if it doesn’t make you furious, maybe you are dead? Just an FYI. While all of you were either partying or just relaxing with family and friends, there was a loss. Read what Mike Adams has to say about what happened on the 31^st of December 2011. “…Derived from sacred principles of natural law, the Bill of Rights has come to a sudden and catastrophic end with the President’s signing of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a law that grants the U.S. military the “legal” right to conduct secret kidnappings of U.S. citizens, followed by indefinite detention, interrogation, torture and even murder…” read more at NaturalNews.com.

 The Bison card is what I drew from Animal Powers Meditations as the New Year begins. The Bison represents prosperity. Perfect. “Bison, spirit, I am calling you. I am grateful for your gifts,   Of abundance and endurance, Come to me now and give me grounding. I need your knowledge to help me survive, to slow down, be patient and move  forward. Having faith that all I need will be provided.”Think about what Bison says and I know that the good things of life will come to you if you open your hearts to them. Patience is the keyword at this time. Set your goals and intentions for the year and open to allowing them to come to you. May you all be blessed with the new energy of Higher Consciousness and may you find your truth this year. The path is getting more narrow.

Will you endure? Ready for leaping? Thank you for all you do and all you are. Have a wonderful week and until again. Love, Jan

NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN-DECEMBER 24 2011- An Unexpected Turn of Events

Did the eclipse get to you too?  How did it affect you? Did you feel any shifting? I know I did. It is unfortunate that those of us in the Eastern part of America didn’t get the opportunity to see it. Heard it was quite a sight. So, it is almost Winter Solstice time when the days are the shortest these few days. I think on December 25 the move forward to longer days begin again. Gee whiz, is summer far behind? Seriously. Now is the time to take a big deep breath and stop running around with last minute anything. Can you just stop for one moment? Doesn’t it feel good to just savor the moment? Oh, c’mon dear ones you can do it. And that Mercury retrograde did a number on a lot of you and me too. Not as much as usual but made me a tad restless. As I said last time, it went direct and we can go back to communicating effectively.

Venus goes into Aquarius on today, December 20. If you are single go out there and connect through friends. Who knows who may show up. Those who are in a relationship, it is time to start thinking about doing things together instead of falling asleep on the chair or ranting about things that matter not. Are you a bit lopsided relationship-wise? Then now is the time to take a good look and see how to come up with creative ways to balance it out. Yes, there may be some issues that arise but it is not about issues now, it is about really being friends no matter what kind of connection you have-marriage, single, whatever. Look deep and see what you can do for each other yet have that freedom to walk your path too and vice versa. How becoming more selfless instead of selfish? What a thought!!!And for goodness sakes, there is fun in the air. And what kinds of magic will that bit of spicy fun manifest? Is your relationship becoming codependent? Abusive? There is healing coming if you allow it. Stop judging.  Time to let it go already. What do you need and what do you choose? Then ask and it just may happen. Since things are speeding up, watch what you intend because it will happen.

And here comes the NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN. This is a new moon which leads us into the New Year of 2012. What is this NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN at 2 degrees 34’ at 1:06pm on December 24, 2011 going to bring to you?  Well, it certainly will bring new beginnings and lots of unexpected events, surprises, big changes. Really big changes are imminent. The moon is square Uranus in Aries. Oh boy! Better get out the Natural Calm for some of you to keep you grounded. There was a T-square last spring into summer with Pluto in Capricorn, Saturn in Libra, and Uranus in Aries. My head is hurting just thinking about it. A whopper of a time and so glad it faded out. The New Moon is linked to that T-square. Jupiter is also linked to this in a nice pretty trine. Hurrah! That gives us some better feelings and brings us some gifts/rewards (once it goes direct) that may not have shown up last summer because of all the challenges that appeared and kept going and going and just drained some of you.  Whew! Maybe someone will even support that biz you have been looking to build. Or you may just look at some resource-building and more financial finesse in your life. This New Moon is also conjunct Pluto. Keep that focus in whatever you are doing but please that one extra step over the line leads to obsession. Stop. Focus please. I can easily go to obsession any day or night. Well, not all the time. <grin> Capricorn is about structure in all parts of your life. It is about goals. (Oh no, that is my middle name.) How can you flow toward something without a goal to intend? Never figured that one out. If you are looking to achieve something powerful then by all means set your intentions on this New Moon.  Capricorn likes structure but with Pluto sitting on the New Moon, some of those structures may fall down unexpectedly or they may become really powerful. Depends on your perspective and approach to the matter at hand. You may choose to create new adventures and take them into the New Year. The New Moon is in my 7^th house of relationships. Now that means new personal starts or could be biz partnerships. We shall see. But then that famous Uranus squares from my 11^th house. What surprises will enter my life through friends? Or will it just be more nerve-jangling gobbledygook?

Those who are affected by the New Moon are any of you who have the last 3 degrees of Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius or Pisces and the first 6 degrees of Aries, Cancer, Libra and of course Capricorn. Intense it may be. And I already know some of you are going to choose to hide under the bed. I suggest otherwise. Since this is a G rated blog, need I say more? If you have planets around those degrees, they too will be affected in some way. And those unexpected turns of events may take you right out of your old way of thinking. What a grand thought! You just may have to look at why you have lived under such oppressive conditions. You like it that much?

Has the consciousness shifted? That is what many are asking due to the arrival of 2012 shortly. Many more of you are awakening to a new reality. Some like to be stuck in the muck of olden days (pre 21^st century). What do you do to change your view for those who are in the muck? Join those who have taken the leap into the entrancing new world and see how satisfying it can be. Oh, there may be still lessons to learn and issues to release but it sure is better if you are all together here. And stop listening to the junk from the mainstream media. Get a clue already. They lie and tell stories. All networks do it. So start looking within to know the truth because you won’t find it outside yourself. The Divine awaits within for recognition. And it stays hidden until you let go of that fear. LET IT GO!!!

May the holidays (those who celebrate) bring you good cheer and blessings more than ever. Take some time for inner reflection and get those intentions out there. There is a special feeling in the air. Thank you one and all for your support of my blog and until again. Patience wins the day. Peace and Love, Jan

LUNAR ECLIPSE/FULL MOON IN GEMINI December 10, 2011-Beyond Outworn Beliefs

Here we go again! Hang onto your hats because not too long before the FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE in Gemini 18 degrees at 9:36am on December 10, 2011 is going to occur, Uranus (shocking, electric and unusual) stations direct. And maybe it will bring you an interesting surprise or turn of events as that happens. Or it can get really loud in some way because Uranus likes to shake up the system. Pay attention.  My computer has a mind of its own and could be the Uranus thing-it said I had no internet last night. Could not connect. Well, where did it go? I pulled out every plug and redid and still none. I am sure it was playing with me because it could. HA! Think back to July, 2011 when it went retrograde. What was happening in your life at that time? Now it can take off again since things really had to regroup in the place in your chart where it actually hit. Also one more aspect, Venus is still within 10 degrees of Pluto which makes for some intensity in relationships. This has been going on the past week.

Anyway, on with the FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE.  This is the last TOTAL lunar eclipse until 2014. It certainly will have long term effects wherever it is in your chart. If you live anywhere in North America except in the East, go out and have a look. It probably will show up a bold reddish tint. Will that be anger you are going to run into or some better communication once Mercury goes direct? Let’s hope the communication takes off to new places outside the narrow vision and into a wider perspective, bigger picture type energy. If you are holding on with fear within, then you may not begin to feel a profound change and a big shift tale place. This is a time of no holding back unless you have some restrictions that may keep you barely moving forward. That’s ok since once that restrictive phase moves out you will leap higher than you ever in this lifetime. That big shift is taking place in the background and unless you are extremely energy conscious or a barometer, you may have just walked by it. Oh, it’s there. Believe me. No fretting the change is on its way and you will know it when it happens. (I have Saturn opposing my Mars right now; what a PITA-you know what that means. And it goes on for awhile yet and boy I would like to blow it up right now. Not going to because I know better and it will bring nothing to me except chaos. So, I am patient and I await that part to shift. In the meantime, other things are shifting.)

The Full Moon is about Sun in Sagittarius and Moon in Gemini. What you see here is a polarity of beliefs and communication. Sagittarius is more spiritual than the Gemini thinking. Maybe you can stop holding onto those outworn beliefs that are interfering in your growth this lifetime. It is time to heal those stuck patterns and letting go of that which no longer brings you heartfelt joy whether that is about others or ideas or beliefs. Move into that new way of thinking. What a pleasant experience once you do. Your perspective changes and wow, what a great feeling. There is a big world out there.

Are you still cutting yourself off from the Divine within? Recognize that this spiritual side is necessary (and this is not about church) to bring balance to that going to work, making money, shopping for whatever and just being in the earthly world. Too much spirituality without a bit of the material is as out of balance as the material being in charge and little spiritual. So mix them up and achieve some balance with this Full Moon. Whatever you put out there now will begin to show up sooner than later unless you hang onto those outworn beliefs. And just because those reality shows are your focus does that mean you need to ignore what the inner wisdom is telling you? Balance, dear ones is necessary for good health, joy and loving relationships. This is a grand time to know you as the authentic being that you are! Then others will see that side of you and things will shift even more. Of course, there are those of you who will fight every inch of the way to live in the old world which no longer has any meaning to you. This Full Moon is just the beginning of the big shift that is coming to you around the corner. Oh, I know, it’s been happening now for many months yet after the first of the year, things will truly begin to accelerate and the writing is on the wall. So ditch that old thinking, those outworn patterns and let the Gemini Full Moon transform your thinking. This brings a culmination to many things in your life. This time is comparable to trimming the weeds and seeing new blooms in a few weeks. Take a good look and resolve any relationship issues for the new blooms to show up.

There is something else that needs saying here. Watch your words this Full Moon. It would be better to call someone or see them face to face then write something that may create chaos and hard feelings. Since everyone I know texts, please be extra careful as to what you say in the texts and how you say it. And the same goes for emails. Now since Mercury is still retrograde, what I am saying is this: Speak kindly and openly when you write or speak to others around this time. That will keep misunderstandings to a minimum.

Have you had a dose of your truth today? My truth is that I just realized that this eclipse is on my ascendant/descendant axis and conjunct Uranus. Should I go into hiding? Will I be shocked by something written or will I be surprised by a blissful feeling?  It is about any partnerships or maybe biz stuff in my life. Anyone whose ascendant/descendant, midheaven/nadir, or any major planets aspected by this eclipse may have some rough rides with others. Aspecting the ascendant/descendant may also be an extreme opposite and can bring a fountain of joy and bliss. Since it is at 18 degrees Gemini, those who have planets in Sagittarius, Gemini, Pisces or Virgo and within 3-5 degrees of that will be affected most. The effects of this LUNAR ECLIPSE can last up to 6 months. And remember Mercury goes out of retrograde motion on December 14. Hurrah.

Blessings to you as we walk the path to greater understanding and wisdom with our change of thinking patterns. Let’s do it. Stay focused and let the Divine shine brightly upon you. Until again. Thank you for all your support. and let others know about this blog. Tell me if the eclipse affects you. Love, Jan

TRANSMUTE THE ANGER – ARE YOU TAKING IT PERSONAL?

Are you feeling things shifting in your life? I know that I am feeling it. Cannot exactly put my finger on it yet there is this knowing that the energy is changing and you and I are going to begin to see things more clearly and truth will win the day. How many of you have been hanging on tightly to old habits, patterns and things? C’mon, you know you have been. A majority of you, including me, have yet to truly release all the junk. Oh, it is happening in bits and pieces and some of you have no interest in doing so due to extreme conditioning and little regard for self- preservation and joyous connecting. No change can take place within our hearts and mind unless you choose it. And so many of you refuse it. So, what is all this gobbledygook that I am trying to put in perspective?

Took a look at this hanging on I have been doing.  I figured out the other day that I was still angry about something. Well, who isn’t at times? No, this was a revelation because I knew I was angry at myself for allowing things to happen in my life for which I was unprepared. So, what did I do? Other then screaming a bit about why I have failed to recognize this truth, I decided to pray and meditate on it to see what the bottomline was. Once I was positive this was the issue, I asked for clearing. I also did a spiritual write and burn for it. You write the thought you wish to release, i.e. I (name) release (my anger at myself) or whatever you wish to release in the name of I AM that I AM to be transmuted in Divine Light now. Let it be released and transmuted now. Thank you in the NAME OF I AM THAT I AM.  Got the gist of it, do you?  Then burn the paper in a small metal container –safety first please…let it go. See what happens then. Voila. Gone with the wind. It does work. Why did I do a write and burn when I knew it was cleared? It was kind of a mind trick that has worked for me in the past. And what is so interesting I hadn’t done a write and burn in years. Too much stuck brain going on obviously. This is one way to allow release. If you search you can find other ways that do not include on the couch psychiatry sessions for twenty years unless that is what you prefer. Of course, if you do not believe that write and burns are effective, then you are just playing with matches. <grin>

 So, who amongst you has anger hidden so deeply that you ignore it and your choice to ignore the feeling because you feel it is politically incorrect to show your anger. It is how you use your anger that may lead you astray. Fear comes at times from buried anger. That anger pulls on you and you just brush it off and the more you do the more that fear starts popping up and the anger is boiling underneath ready to explode. I say, get ticked off and say what you have to say. You can be angry without your words being filled with poison.  Of course, everybody seems to be angry, fearful or on the other hand, pretending to be balanced. So much negativity is rearing its ugly head and many of you are letting it pull you into its claws. There is rudeness on the roads, rudeness in restaurants, anger in relationships, fear in the workplace. People judge you because there is insecurity within them. They blame you for doing things that don’t appeal to them or maybe just because they can. Show your anger by pounding a pillow, then come to them and have the discussion and get over it already. If you cannot have the discussion then that is when control is an issue and who of you wants it their way. So, do you really choose to resolve the issue?

 Anger oftentimes comes from childhood conditioning when you didn’t get your way. And some of you show it and others bottle it up. I hope the bottle doesn’t explode. OR it comes from a wound of some kind. What was that something that someone said to you or vice versa? It stung, it bit you, It made you hankering for a fight. You took it personal. Oh my. You actually took it personal. Even when you are angry with yourself as I was a short time ago, I took myself personally. Wow. Well, isn’t that a big opening? You recognized that you took it personal. Did they actually mean what they said or did you get hooked into the energy? Were you having a bad day or were they? If you got angry then your reaction spoke loudly. It wasn’t about them, now was it? Nope. You took it personal and so did I. “Personal importance or taking things personally, is the maximum expression of selfishness because we make the assumption that everything is about “me”.” –don Miguel Ruiz

 These childhood patterns constantly come up when you are stressed or overtired or just refusing to pay attention to what your Higher Self is trying to tell you.  Could it be that your ego is so darn comfortable that the fear arises within when any change is imminent? Changes are coming in a very big way. They can be positive changes or you can fear monger and believe the changes will be negative. Whatever you choose is ok with me. Just remember that to keep the joy flowing, the anger, recognized or hidden has to transmute itself to a more detached place. Anger kills you from the inside no matter how much you deny it. Ask for guidance as to how to release the anger. It works. Anger arises from many around me on the roads and in gatherings whether family, friends or workplace. If enough of you would release your hold on your woundedness and let it go and surround it in peace and joy and love (no this is not about the hippie 60s) then things would shift in a positive direction, maybe not all at once, but in small increments which would make a major difference. Try to let it go. I know it is possible to do so. Remember holding love present is the win/win place to be.

 So do you think that the darkening abyss that shrouds the country is what is affecting you? Your homes may be in foreclosure; you see your investments dwindling and your mood is down. The PTB are running scared and it will get dark before the Light shines brightly.  Who knows where the Europeans will land if the money goes down in the next 10 days.  You wonder if the elite will begin an all out war so they can fulfill their greed. Nothing new here. Just the same old patterns to keep us locked into a system that died years ago. Get angry if you must. Use it wisely. Pull your heads out of the sand and see the truth. Are you ready for that leap? Some of you have done it already…others may leap today. Take down the illusions which have haunted you for years.  Do pay attention. May the blessings shine upon you and thank you for you and your support. Until again. Love, Jan

 

NEW MOON /Eclipse in Sagittarius November 25, 2011- RISE BEYOND THE EGO MIND

Trumpets are sounding. The New Moon in Sagittarius partial solar eclipse at 2deg 37min. is on November 25, 2011 at 1:10am EST. Have we got a beauty for you? It is fiery and has upbeat energy which brings us to another round of new beginnings and some endings. Those who have Sagittarius as a birth sign are filled with optimism, free-spirited, love adventure/travel and are straightforward to the max. They love to be the philosopher and explore the inner workings of themselves and others.

 Ok now, let’s take a look at eclipses briefly. Past behavior patterns need to be shut down because that is what the eclipse is asking you to do. Old beliefs and patterns which block your growth need to be let go here. Other energies come into play at this time. For instance there is someone I know who has the eclipse conjunct Eros in the chart. This would be about heart matters that need to be addressed and become the new persona instead of staying in the old worn out place of self. It is about renewing the passion. We have come to time which is set for adventure with the grand trine and eclipse. Are you ready to go into uncharted waters? Ol’ man Jupiter is in charge here. And he is positive and upbeat so if you are not, he will not like it. This is no time for any BS. It is time you give up the crap. Period. It will take you down if you take it with you on the journey that is beginning right now. The past is over and done with. Save yourself a lot of trouble and dump it. Oh ye of little faith who fail to see the truth. It is imperative that you just do it and walk past all the garbage that you have been collecting through eons. Dragging all that junk with you will block your way and is that what you truly desire to have happen? This is the kind of energy that if you are so inclined, watch what you wish for because it will come to you in a big way. All kidding aside, this is serious stuff and I suggest you think about that intention because it will come to you. Now remember, there may be some sluggish delays due to Mercury retrograde. Get to near the end of the post.

 Let’s take a look at the New Moon in Sagittarius a bit closer. If you have any planets or asteroids in the early degrees of the signs of Sagittarius or Gemini, Virgo or Pisces, this New Moon energy will intensify energy of the planets located in those early degrees. Of course, there also may be some effect for any Scorpio late degrees. There is someone I know who has the New Moon on Valentine in their solar return chart. What a wonderful time for reaching out in love. What are you waiting for? This is a time to say the heck with those others who really have no interest in you anyway. Go for the gusto and reach deep into your heart and let whoever know it in a big way. For all the rest of you out there, this is a time when something you do may not meet with the sanction of others around you. Darn. Guess what it’s time to do it anyway. YES it is. And those changes that you are resisting are coming on quickly. For goodness sakes, leap into them. There is much planning in this New Moon period and once you find your plan designed, you may find it takes a while to get it off the ground. It is just a bit lazy on some level.

Do you want to create your destiny? The New Moon in Sagittarius is about rising above the ego mind. Now is the time to choose whether you are on the path of ego or the path of the Spirit. Once you make that decision things begin to fall into place in your lives and you will begin to achieve balance. I know everyone gets into ego at times, yet if you decide to listen to your intuition, watch how your life changes and your true path may actually appear to you. Are you ready? Uranus has some input also on this New Moon. It may bring unexpected changes and if you are prepared for them, then so much the better. I feel they may be just what is needed. Remember better to know that there may be some changes rather than to be caught off guard.

 Mercury retrograde is back. Oh joy! It went into retrograde tonight (November 23) and will stay retro until December 13. Not a good thing for your holiday shopping. Electronics is the worst thing to buy before the 13^th. And avoid signing those important documents/agreements. Watch any major travel during this retrograde period.

 Let’s take a quick look at other things happening in this time frame. Panacea and Pluto aspect tells you to get to the root of the problem and this will help to heal you and then your life can take major leaps to improving. In my personal chart I have the New Moon on my South Node which says to me that releasing the past issues is so important. It is also trine my Saturn which keeps me be professional at work and on track. Also I have a Juno transit ready to hit my vertex in the next couple of days. I think it is about a more permanent connecting link.

 I have decided to pick a Pages of Shustah card to pull together this post. It is the Gnomes card. Very interesting. Quoting from the Shustah book site it says:

“The yellow gnomes card has the value of the dynamic  power of inner developing of emotional concentration. It is literally the transmutation – the deep inner change that comes with work on one’s self. The gnomes in the card have expressions of great effort and grimace, but they bring forth nuggets of gold. … take heart with this message, and forge on; even in the face of criticism and not exactly warm approval for my efforts- I will gain more than what I perceive I have lost! I will come out a winner in spite of it all…”

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving (those in the US) and enjoy your coming weekend. I am thankful for those who read my blog. Stay in the moment because the efforts you are putting out there are beginning to come back to you. And remember that old junk, negative thoughtforms and being resistant are undermining your truth. This New Moon in Sagittarius is about positive thinking and behavior. Again thank you. Blessings to you. Until again. Love, Jan

FULL MOON in TAURUS November 10, 2011-Rejuvenate the Senses

Hello dear ones. Have you noticed the energy unfolding leading past the Full Moon to November 11, 2011? This week brings us the FULL MOON in TAURUS at 18 degrees Thursday, November 10, 2011 at 3:16pm EST. The Full Moon is normally an intense energy yet this one has some simplicity to it. It has no major aspects affecting it except in the background there are some things going on such as deception, confusion, deflection. Mars is opposing Neptune and boy it stinks. Somewhere I remember it said to watch any poisoning. Well, how about that? You know what comes into play? This Penn State University scandal is so representative of Mars opposing Neptune and also the Full Moon energies on the negative side. First there is the confusion regarding whether Joe Paterno did something wrong, like cover-up. From what I have heard, he told his Athletic Director what was told to him by a graduate assistant regarding sexual abuse in the locker room. So, Mr. Paterno is a subject of a witch hunt because he even opened his mouth and said something. The two individuals who covered it up have been arraigned. This is classic Full Moon madness with a major Mars/Neptune aspect added to give it lots of flavor. I guess Joe Pa will end up the martyr or sacrificial lamb.(this is moon on Algol) There is so much confusion, deception and downright lying that the truth may never really be known. Of course, one can always create a deflection to make it the truth. This is totally outrageous!  

Now let’s get back to the FULL MOON in TAURUS. Have you noticed how the energy is speeding up and there is no turning back now. Whatever you have felt in the last couple of weeks has brought up many old fears, anger, deep wounds and anything else that may have kept you stuck in the past. Well, sweet ones, you are going to be prodded bigtime to let it go, clear it out and if you haven’t done so already, then dear ones, the Bull is ready to come at you. And you know what that means, don’t you? Those who haven’t done the work on themselves are going to end up feeling quite “raw” as I mentioned in the last post.  No more lollygagging. Oh, now no fear because you can laze a bit with a Taurus Full Moon, just not too long. Rest, relax, yes, reach out in love, enjoy your sensuality/sexuality, play a bit, walk in nature or enjoy your gardens (those who are going into summer) or indoor ones, and take a big look at your values. What do you cherish the most? How is your financial outlook for the next months? All the emotionality of this Full Moon is just strengthening you for a better life. Whatever changes occur, stop fighting them. You need to accept and go with the flow so that your creativity will surface even more loving will take place. No judgement please. FLOW. It is time for this, you know.

Taurus loves possessions and material security. Both Taurus and Scorpio are about material security, passions coming from sensual or sexual pleasures and money. Self-esteem is important to Taurus as regeneration is imperative to Sun in Scorpio. And don’t forget that beauty that Taurus needs. So this Full Moon takes into consideration all these things especially the material, and the five senses. Taurus loves anything that soothes the soul. Now I am speaking of the highest parts of this Full Moon. This is far from greed that abounds. I do see the greed in the bankers who currently are involved in European actions monetarily. And believe it or not, the asteroid Europa is involved in the mix. So, what is going to happen in Europe? The same stuff has been going on for eons of time. Or will this Full Moon and 11/11/11 change the entire European Union into something else. Truth will be revealed soon enough.

Full Moons are times of culmination, or lesser influences of endings. Pay attention and see if there is a culmination of something that has been going on for awhile. This may happen within 4 days either way of the Full Moon. Personally, I am a Taurus and this Full Moon will take place in my 12^th house sitting on my Sun in Taurus. Oi vey! What is going to be illuminated with this Full Moon? What old pattern or ancient idea that no longer fulfills its purpose will be cleared or at least recognized? I think I already saw it. On the other hand I may be able to move mountains out of the way and reach my desires. This can be a major moment for me and many others. That mountain may move for the first time. Also, in my case a secret may come to light since my Sun is in the 12^th with the Full Moon. Anyone with planets or asteroids or Parts at 18 degrees in Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) will be affected more intensely with the Full Moon at 18 degrees Taurus and will show you something if you look closely.

These days are shifting the energy in such a grand way and there are many out there who are oblivious to this sort of change. My mind is boggled. If you are still following the monkey mind concept, please drop it now. Think for yourself and get off the bandwagon of the glitter, glitz and reality TV. If that is all you care about in life, then you are going to be in for a quite big kick in the butt awakening. Is that too harsh? Sorry, it is as close to the truth as I can muster.

Are you having any difficulties in relationships? Find time to eradicate the power struggle at this Full Moon in Taurus. Are you using power to keep others in place? If this occurs and you let go of the power struggle, you will notice a complete shift in the relationship for the better. This is also a good time to stay with your partner, your beloved, and regenerate your feelings. Clear your mind and look at things with a fresh perspective and different approach. Since the Sun is in Scorpio, this regeneration is necessary as part of the rising up in your energies. And do allow some sensuality to be part of your relationship at this time. Joy is there for the asking.

If you need to change an agreement, including a financial type, please do so before November 23. I say do it before the 17^th because Mercury goes retrograde on the 23rd of November. Jupiter and Pluto are still in trine aspect and this will help considerably.

The turning point is arriving on 11/11/11. It is time to walk away from the illusions and deceptive approach to living. Remember to look beyond the illusion. As I have said many times before, this is about rising up to the truth and love. My individual thought is that love can be transformed through truth.

Blessings to all. May your cosmic leap take you beyond your wildest dreams this time around.  Until again. Thank you for supporting my blog. Love, Jan

ARE YOU LIVING A LIE?

Here we are in the week after the last day of the Mayan Calendar and what has changed or shifted in your life since last week? Anything at all? Do you know what I found that my perspective has shifted and where I kept my involvement to a minimum, I now feel differently? What am I saying? Well, I feel the veil has parted slightly, if only for a moment. The lie is huge and although it was there for seeing before and bothered me to some extent, now it is annoying and exasperates me. And you say what is she talking about? People, events, the world, the talking heads, the crazy drivers, the impatience of others, the constant barrage of war talk, the rudeness, the entitlement and how many more things are the things that really make me crazy? Me first as the motto of many continues. Lots of selfishness is reappearing. I thought that went out with the last millennium. And many may say, so what! It’s been there all the time, what does it matter now? It is the lies that really get to me. And it is interesting that my thoughts and feelings that came to me as I was driving to work today, have now disappeared due to overload from meetings all day. What a way to make one see the truth. And funny thing I broke out into a rash after the one meeting. Was my irritability from the meeting showing up? Most likely! Some people will laugh when they read that. The energy was erratic.

 How many of you are living in the lie? Living the lie and truth have no connection. Living the lie is when you are in denial as to what you are here to do or you have thrown it away because it is too much trouble. How many have really wanted to do something else? You may not even know what it is but it nags you at times. That’s your truth and if you pay attention to what is nagging you (I don’t mean other people here)  it appears clearly in front of you.  If you have a partner, does he/she support your efforts and your intentions? I know many of you who have partners who have no clue that life is more than work or watching TV or just doing nothing that has anything to do with their path. Or maybe there are those who choose to be left alone and have little to do with anything. How many of you are still in an old belief system? In fact are the beliefs really yours or from another individual. If the Mayan Calendar ended and we are now on the way to a new beginning in consciousness then what do we have to do to awaken others to the truth. When one sits in an old select group and the fear builds because stepping outside that group is a threat to their comfort zone, then what does one do to feel good about taking that leap? I want to know the reason that you need that comfort zone. Ironically, my life has never had one. Something or someone continuously keeps me on my toes and I need to pay attention.  Yet, I had to keep taking small leaps whether I liked it or not. How about you? Do you feel that your life is ready to tip over with stress due to other’s behavior or beliefs being thrown at you? Then stop it and get off the wheel already. Didn’t the Master Christ say that we should be in the world but not of the world? How many can actually say that? Because if you are not of the world you will know immediately what I am talking about. Those who are treading water and hiding away or evading issues are filled with a fear coming from some other time. As a good friend commented on a previous blog post, things are going to be raw soon. Yes, they sure are especially if you are in denial. They don’t have to be. You can stop running and take a look at your life and see if you are joyful and authentic. That is a big plus. No one said you had to do what you are doing if it is a lie.

When was the last time you went within and saw your truth? When was the last time you thought about finding out your good points and not so good points and seeing how you could integrate your mindset and heart? Have you? Many say that they do certain things for people, they serve the group, they help out when asked and that is great. Is it your truth? Or are you living a lie? Does guilt enter into the equation? If so, then the lie is present, because you are being other than your authentic self. Guilt is taught; it is far from the norm. So you have beliefs that aren’t yours, and guilt about things that happened, and grudges you hold against others. Wow. No wonder you may experience problems. 

 This is a time to step up and take a leap to a new place in your life. Hanging on for dear life to something that is no longer a part of your truth is a lie. If you haven’t recognized it yet then get to looking deeply within or you may find something may shake up your life and who needs that. Been there, done that. Not a good feeling and boy, does it interrupt your day.

 Enough of the lie! Take a risk already. Put those intentions out there and watch them appear. And if you are clear and authentic and filled with integrity, you know they come sooner than later, sometimes instantly. I thought I was going to have a rant today and the energy changed and so be it. A quick public info note: There is FEMA emergency broadcast shutdown of communications on November 9 at 2pm EST and whatever that is about, who knows! I did hear that there is an asteroid going by the moon or thereabouts in that timeframe also. Perhaps they don’t want us to hear about what actually occurs. Just sending out an SOS. Have a blessed week. Until again. Love, Jan

NEW MOON in SCORPIO OCTOBER 26 2011-TRUTH or DARE

Oh my, last week has passed by and here I am ready to fly off the handle. Well, I could. But I won’t. What am I saying? Before I get to the main event, NEW MOON in SCORPIO, I need to go stick my head in cold water and wonder what is going on. First thing I heard the other day, was that a University is doing a pilot study regarding how texting can help with weight loss. The inmates are running the asylum. What a perfect mode for behavioral medication in the negative way. Oh, I am sure there may be proof of something that is good about it, but you have got to be kidding me? Heard something this morning which made me wonder what actually is going on in schools these days. Companies are looking for skilled workers and there are none. One company needs machinists said since applicants cannot do basic things like read or write (??????) they may hire them and then train them onsite. My mind is blown. And now onto more pleasant things.

 It is time for the NEW MOON in SCORPIO at 3deg 39 minutes on October 26, 2011 at 3:56pm EDT. SCORPIO is my opposite sign. This sign sings of obsession, possession, and brooding. Intensity and passion reigns supreme. And they just love being secretive. Some flocked to my life through the years and among those that did, a few of them showed me my other side. I learned much from the Scorpions and Eagles who appeared. Scorpios see things much clearer than most of us and much of that depends on whether they are coming from a Scorpion (lower) or Eagle (higher) perspective. Anyone who is a Scorpio will walk through just about anything and they can regenerate themselves fully. In fact the Sun just entered Scorpio on Sunday, October 23.  This NEW MOON speaks intensely yet there is a still a relatively smooth flow about it. Remember that this a time when the element of truth may become very clear. If you aren’t ready for it, run for the hills. It will still find you. Those who are in committed relationships and whether you are choosing the true love or the lie. If the relationship is unconditional then it will begin to gel even after years of dancing. The distractions no longer disturb it. Any one-sided relationships are now going to come to the table and you can forget about it. Too cold for you? Sorry, that’s the way it reads. This is what the truth of this Scorpio NEW MOON will bring out and clarify. If it is not in your best interest, the Universe will step in and guide you to that which is real. No solutions, then no evolving takes place!

The Scorpio NEW MOON will have things coming up from their hiding places. Is there something you are choosing to keep below the surface of prying eyes? You are? It will show up. Since every New Moon is a time of new cycle beginnings, please remember to set your intentions regarding anything that may be important in your life…career, health, relationships and or financial stuff among many things. That intention may just pop into your life if you are clear in setting it. Of course, there are relationships that may bring some drama to your life. Pay attention to your energy and what you are putting out there. Since this is a regenerative New Moon, what will you intend to regenerate? Are you looking to heal yourself, your life, or your connections? Watch you don’t step on toes this time around since the energy brings people and their opinions to the forefront. This comes from the Mars in Leo square to Mercury/Venus Scorpio on the Full Moon day. Their minds are already made up and there is no changing anything. If you are trying to influence them, convince them or otherwise, you will be wasting your energy now.

It is a New Moon of patience, manners and following the rules. Do you have something you disowned about yourself? Are you feeling unworthy, unloving, self-critical? Now is the time to discover it and let it go. This Scorpio NEW MOON is about a big release of negativity. Are you ready to release all the gunk that blocks your way, all the hidden stuff that bogs you down? It’s too close to 11/11/11 to continue the same patterns, same habits that no longer serve you. There is a conflict resolution thread through this New Moon and fairness and equality have a place. No jealousy allowed, no matter what goes on. Watch the cruelty from others or even yourself. Pay attention to your heart instead of flying off the handle. Deep breathing works.

 Just a brief personal example of the affect of Scorpio NEW MOON conjunct my Chiron. It is within 1 degree and it may finalize the healing that I have been working on for months. Let’s intend it and it can also mean my dear old master on the path may appear for one more time to help find the wound and finally heal it. I think it has already taken place. This is just the last act of it which is ok. There has been much separation through the years, much poking at the wound and now regeneration can take place. Hurrah! Others whom I know in my life also are having this take place whether they are aware of it or not. Much love to them.

One more thing- October 28, 2011 is the end of the Mayan calendar according to Carl Calleman. It is in the ninth wave. Jupiter is trine Pluto on this day he says can bring a shift in global consciousness.

 Rabbit appeared as the card for this New Moon. Rabbit is about opportunity. Do the following meditation (from “Animal Powers Meditation Guidebook”) for a few days if you would like to attract both seen and unseen opportunities. These opportunities may be fleeting so you need to wake up to see them. 

 “Rabbit spirit, please come to me. You help me discover opportunity. You are sensitive to your  surroundings. Teach me to be more intuitive and awake, To  think   quickly, in the blink of an eye, To survive  because I am observant. I will know what is real and what is false.”

Thank you all for your support. I am most grateful. Share this blog with your friends if you feel it will offer them something that they need. Happy Scorpio NEW MOON. Have a blessed week. Until again. Love, Jan
