WORD PONDER: STILLNESS

Stillness may far and large be one of the most under utilized words within our habits and routines today. The definition of this noun is known to be via Webster’s as: “The quality or state of being still; quietness; silence; calmness; inactivity.” Be honest, when was the last time this sincerely happened to you aside from the act of going to sleep every night?In our current world of media crazed, internet overload, technology upgrades, and waste accumulating faster than the earth can handle, it would be of tremendous benefit for humanity to become sincere friends with stillness. Like the Mayans deeply understood long ago, the pace of the human race is so sped up, stillness is likely to become a very popular word in our future.

Some people, adhering to Webster’s definition, may believe being in stillness brings them “nothing.” What good can possibly happen in silence and inactivity except boredom? One might even ask, how does it make any sense that growth or learning can occur here?

Looking to the name expression guiding stillness, we find it rings to the Chaldean’s understanding of the 30’s Loner – Meditation. What do you know, here is Jupiter’s guiding light of the singular 3 here to assure that yes, even in stillness, plenty of education and expansion is meant to occur. Jupiter is known to bring ease, fortune, and wisdom to any situation, especially when one doesn’t take its’ optimism for granted.

The Chaldeans distinctly said of the 30’s Loner – Meditation: “This is a number of retrospection, thoughtful deduction, and mental superiority over others. However, it belongs completely to the mental plane, and those represented by it often put all material things to the side, not because they have to, but because they wish to do so. Social functions and public gatherings are not their style. 30 doesn’t deny happiness or success, but fulfillment is more often found in retreating from the chaos of the market place, so that one’s mental superiority may be used to develop something worthwhile to the world… to write ideas which may change the world… or to protect and develop one’s personal talents, such as art or other gifts.”

How amazing it is that the ancient Chaldeans’ wisdom still holds true today. The gifts within stillness are ones that truly wish to teach us about detachment from the material plane our modern world is overly consumed with. The blessings of Jupiter’s expansion most certainly can find us through the mental plane where -within our solitude- stillness is able to bring forth personal abundance.

Perhaps one reason stillness isn’t a true human practice at this time in history, is the fact that we are so fooled by the consumerism and information age surrounding us. Jupiter through the 3 here also is not a fan of lies, and prefers brutal honesty in all of its’ dealings. Participating in the 30’s understanding of stillness helps us to no longer be blinded, and find our own genuine truths when we make the time to retreat.

Still in disbelief that “nothing” happens within stillness? Looking to Lexigrams, we provide the final affirmations that this very word wishes to share with us. What rewards indeed.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, FULL MOON in LIBRA, 2011

LUNAR-O-SCOPE

FULL Moon in Libra,
27 Degrees

17 April

10:44pm EDT

Our Lunar Lady is about to illuminate within the first of her three full nights of Spring. The collective’s emotions enter The Scales Saturday 16 April at 2:59amEDT until Monday, 18 April at 2:19amEDT.

As Saturn presently retrogrades, our planet of karma and our Lunar Lady conjunct at 12 degrees Libra, 16 April at 11:17pm EDT. This will be in fair opposition to Mercury @ 14 degrees Aries, and Mars at 11 degrees Aries. The feelings leading up to this Full Libra Moon will be quite deepened, serious, and offering patience and practical energies to compliment Mercury’s continued reflection, as Mars motivates us to bring forth our necessary changes.

It’s that time of the month when our feelings and emotions have the tendency to become intense. When you have the Sun and the Moon in a “full” on opposition to one another- you can expect one of two things: resistance or co-operation. This month as the Sun reaches Aries at 27 degrees -urging our courage and independence to emerge- the Moon equally asks that we take time to filter through our emotional take on relationships and harmony, as she fully reflects in Libra at 27 degrees.

Previous to our Lunar Light show, our Moon will grant equal pull against our outer planets as they journey in Aries. Uranus, now at 2 degrees Aries, and Jupiter, at 19 degrees, presently call upon our originality and optimal ability to grow. As our feelings truly wish to compare at this time, these ideally compliment what is under current examination where The Ram pioneers in your life.

Be open to the request of our Full Moon in Libra. This is a collective calling to look to matters concerning peace, tolerance, charm, and friendliness. Refined feelings and the capacity for comparison and co-operation are strong. Be aware however of lazy, evasive, and co-dependent reactions.

A Full Moon in Libra brings forth a sensitive instinct and imagination. Wherever The Scales balance it all out within your Zodiac Pie, you can expect to feel intensity here this Sunday evening. This also is the area of life that triggers release and reflection for the next two weeks until our next New Moon upon 03 May.

For the collective horoscope, again we offer advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember, if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Keep in mind, it is the full mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that truly indicates how the current planetary energies are uniquely affecting you.

Lunar-O-Scope, FULL Moon in Libra, 17 April 2011

Aries: You’ve been feeling that pure responsibility to those partnerships, personal or business related. As Saturn requests ultimate responsibility here at present, this is an opportune time to take a good look around and continue to let go of what no longer works within those one on one relations. While the world is rapidly beginning to see a new way of looking at you, this is a time to equally get out of your head and reflect upon your first impressions and instincts.

Taurus: Take a stance Dear Bull and bring on intelligent improvements to your routine, personal habits, and health.

Love affairs that have been flirting upon the stage of your life are anxious to figure out whether they’ll become part of the set, or see curtains down.

Cancer: Not that home and family aren’t always on the Crab’s radar, but there are issues concerning them that will find further release now. The Career is sparkling in reassessment at present, but remember there is equal balance you must achieve patiently where you refuel.

Leo: Time to dive further into re-organizing your thinking. It’s already been apparent the responsibility that your mentality has been requesting of you, and every Lion knows it’s best to be loyal to positive thoughts. Siblings and neighbors also may help you learn from an experience. You should find this to be a fine time to partake in reflection to write, learn, or educate; continuing the patient process of redefining the stable head necessary to rule your forest.

Virgo: If you’ve been in a fuss or worried about the earning power- this is the first thing to let go! Now is not the time to attract more worry, but to refine those detailed oriented skills you innately have that politely serve others. Your value system has seen the beginnings of the redecorating process that is presently unfolding at a poised pace. Now is the time to reclaim your securities, granting them proper room to be able to widen their wealth.

Libra: You always show the good side of your Scales, and now, there is more weigh to carefully add to them. New approaches and letting go of what doesn’t fit into your beautiful and friendly world is the mission at hand. With the new relationships presently springing up, the way you’ll be the best for them is to continue on in total awareness of the stable process that is changing the way the world takes view of you, while your perceptions wisely improve for the better.

Scorpio: You’re quite comfortable in the subconscious realms that this Moons’ energy wants to take you to regal Eagle. There is a deep inner work process you are feeling strongly about, and it’s time to go even further within, and let go of more. Your dream state is a marvelous source of self-knowledge that is able to bring forth balance within your waking world.

Remember all the gorgeous energies aiming in compliment from your creative labors!

Capricorn: That worry really doesn’t serve you Old Goat. Career matters are on the surface right now, and while the pace here has not been quick, you become further engaged as the time for intense reflection unfolds.

While your expectation of perfection will not be arrived at yet, the time is now to make these stepping stone reassessments for those ultimate long-term goals.

Aquarius: Responsibility has been stirring within your philosophical outlooks, some of which even the prophetic thinker like you couldn’t foresee coming. Your urges to travel may not be going exactly as planned, but with patience these will align in their right timing, with a little extra work involved. Even if you cannot take physical flight, taking a spirited mental journey that reassesses your higher education and what you truly believe, surely gets your originality soaring.

Pisces: Careful planning has been wise for you to be schooling in the area of investments, taxes, shared/joint resources. Take further time to review what may not be stable here. With the dynamic force stirring the earning power, take advantage of it. Been a lack of intimacy swimming around you?

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, NEW MOON in ARIES, 2011

LUNAR-O-SCOPE

NEW Moon in Aries
03 April,
10:32am EDT
13 degrees


Our Moon now catches up with the enthusiasm of our Sun! A NEW Moon in Aries brings forth independent and easily aroused feelings as our Lunar Light takes charge with The Ram, Saturday 02 April at 7:16am EDT until Monday, 04 April at 7:46pm EDT.

As our mentalities recharge further, we still can embrace this time of the month as our emotions welcome all anew. When our New Moon embarks in the driving energies of Aries -the sign that consciously aims for leadership- the collective is really ready to take on a fearless approach. Fire is Aries elemental influence, so something igniting is definitely meant to spark- as our Moon starts once more at the very beginning of the Zodiac wheel in alignment with our Sun.

Especially as our Messenger Retrogrades here, Aries energy is wise to beware of restless, challenging, militant, and disobedient forces that may arise. When self-willed energies are around, it is easy to gravitate to unbalanced, aggressive, and hasty tendencies. While a strong sense of individuality and assertiveness mark any Aries passage, the cultivation of moderation, patience, forethought, and humility brings success to our outcomes. Penetrating Mars is also in the mix of The Ram’s energies, so full attention to these virtues brings ease to our outcomes here.

Be sure to check the Aries House, in particular the 13-degree Aries spot, in your personal birth chart to see where a new energy is ideally meant to unfold. This is the area of life that requests an initiation in the next two weeks to follow. Seeds that you plant in this section of your Zodiac pie until the next Full Moon upon 17 April are bound to reap a rich harvest further down the road. Take special note of the energies that unravel upon the 18-20 April, as Mars and Mercury conjunct at this same 13 degree Aries point. More than likely, you’ll see a connection here.

For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember, if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Always remember, it is the full mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that truly indicates how the current planetary energies are uniquely affecting you.

Lunar-O-Scope, NEW Moon in Aries, 03 March 2011

Aries: It’s your month Mighty Rams to put on a fresh new face. Get ready for some exciting and stirring feelings to ignite your normal pioneering approach. Just make sure your not too headstrong! We all know you tend to dive in without thinking at times, so take this time to re-activate the self. The world awaits to see those changes you’ve already been working on, as it anticipates the completed new mask you are getting ready to unveil.

Taurus: Prepare for a new self-discovery you are about to unfold deep from within as you get ready for a solitary journey. The spiritual, subconscious realms, and the psychological make-ups of life call to you to really get away from what you normally like to touch and feel, so don’t be stubborn. There is a hidden inner beauty you are meant to tap into, and it will help you channel your innate virtue of patience all the more if you let courage take the lead.

Gemini: In the realms of your friendships, there are connections to be made here. You are in review of the groups or causes you are or wish to be a part of so don’t remain split. The time is now to rethink how these ideally fit into your mutable schedule. No stranger to conversation, you’ve been especially friendly since Spring opened its’ doors. Accept that possible unexpected invitation to socialize, for there is equal mental satisfaction you’ll gain from attending.

Cancer: So are you having fun reassessing the harvest, stability, and reward within your career and public life? Tap into your intuition about what can be rediscovered in regards to promoting or starting a new business, or, for a nice recognition to come your way if you’ve done your proper legwork to receive it. How you view your relationship to authority is looking for a new direction that you’ve not been responsible to up till now.

Leo: Inspiration has already been fueling the new path your philosophies and beliefs are expanding to. Feel like taking a trip outside of the forest, Lion? This is a prime time to plan one (though proceed with caution under Mercury here), take one, or find ways to broaden your view of the world at large. Explore this opportunity to keep igniting your urges here to take the lead as well as reflect upon some new educational pursuits that whole-heartedly serve you.

Virgo: Don’t be shy about your securities and investments for now is the time to reflect upon any changes, but don’t make ultimate decisions in this area until Mercury is Direct again. With all the planet power here at present you are undergoing a metamorphosis that will renew you like never before. You’ve been certainly feeling especially sexy oh innocent Virgin, so continue to welcome this excitement and see what discoveries still await to transform you.

Libra: Your partnerships are more than on your mind lately, from your romantic ties to business contacts. You’ll find the people you connect with over this waxing period still are of special importance to your future endeavors. If you should be signing anything legally binding, sign after the 23 April. There is definitely a friendly spark you ignite as you now reflect upon new ways to find balance in doing what you love to do best: relating to others.

Scorpio: Keep tapping into those regenerative powers, because you know you are right on in feeling they are completely ready to bring improvement to your health and all the ways you find that deep satisfaction when being of service. There’s a new routine you should strive to reflect upon that implements later. Your relationships with a pet may show up as well, leading you to contemplate searching for that perfect match.

Sagittarius: You love fire in all of its’ forms, and you surely have more than your fair share of illumination at your fingertips when it comes your creativity. There has been an intense energy surging behind whatever your current project involves. Your playful feelings equally love any contact with children. “Brain children” or offspring equally want to captivate your attention now as review is also required here. Your arrows are finding true directions to be aimed in.

Capricorn: Have you stopped working so you can start to clean your house Dear Goat? Your home environment is crying for your toil and perfectionism. More than likely you have been thinking about what needs work here, especially reassessments, with equal focus upon your family life. It’s not like you to get too psychic, yet don’t ignore any déjà vu experiences, whose channels are open for you to receive their important messages now.

Aquarius: Are you enjoying that whole new way of thinking going on Water Bearer? This is a fabulous time to be reviewing those inventions and original ways you always enjoy improving your mental capacity. If you take time to plan a short trip now or if you are already on one, just keep Mercury’s current changes in mind. There is a total new direction your prophetic mind takes, and it’s meant to show a refreshed vision probably only you will understand.

Pisces: The Fishes wish to swim on a different course to bring forth a renewed sense of values while taking stock of your personal possessions. You are in the mood to redo and reorganize in how you earn your dollars. A new channel to flow from begins to show its face, granting security. You may find yourself making an impulsive purchase. Make sure it allows an important outlet for change, and is not just for the sake of buying something bigger and better.

MERCURY RETROGRADE, 30 Mar to 23 Apr, 2011

MERCURY RETROGRADE
in ARIES

30 March – 23 April 2011

Approach began:
16 March
The last day Mercury was
@ 12 deg Aries.

Shadow Remains:
08 May
The next time Mercury reaches
24 deg Aries going Direct.

“Everything that is made has a magical influence in it. If it is made with a thought quite contrary to what is needed, it only means dangers awaiting the ship, the train, the wagon, the car. Very often, without apparent cause you find a boat in danger, something breaking without a substantial reason. In its make-up the thought of destruction has been given. It is working through it; it is something more living that the object itself. So it is when a house is built. The thoughts given to it by the one who was building it, it by those who worked it out, all count. The thought attached to things is a life power.”
-Hazrat Inayat Khan

Thought provoking and Messenger Mercury entered Aries 09 March and will transit here until 15 May. The collective’s thinking and mentality is engaged with being keenly alert and sparking with daring ideas. This is a time when it is wise to go with your first thoughts, as these are best to take direction with. Expect spontaneous action coupled with quick, acute, and inspired perceptions. With Jupiter already expanding with The Ram, get ready for ACTION in this area of your Zodiac Pie as the Sun is also here now casting some light upon the situation at hand.

Mercury will engage in its’ first REtrograde of 2011 from 30 March at 4:48pm EDT to 23 April, 6:04am EDT. Mercury in Aries naturally lends to the potential energies that may extend into lack of: concentration, continuity, patience, and restraint. So, do be cautious with those “first thoughts” over this period, for they may, just be a slight misguided here. Remember this is a time to ideally reflect; and precisely where reassessments wish to be revealed within the 24 deg to 12 deg Aries piece of your natal Zodiac Pie.

Upon 02 April, Mars joins up with the activity within The Ram. Mars is our planet of drive, motivation, and wherever it currently transits is the place we are most apt to desire to take action presently within our Zodiac Pies. Couple this with Mercury here -not looking where he is going- and one can be sure to see a bit of upset and further confusion. These two planets will conjunct at 13 degrees Aries over the days of 18 – 20 April. This marks a critical time to truly take to a slow and easy pace here, where it cannot be stressed enough that gravitating to patience helps ease our every course of action.

The numerological implications of this 13-degree conjunction point to the Chaldean understanding of Regeneration – Change. The old ground urges to be turned up to reveal new life within, often accompanied by ingenious inventions. The ability to see exactly how this Universal offering of REflection and REassessment will be strong and impetuous over these days, wherein, undoubtedly the force and intensity to unfold will be ones to reckon with.

While not involved directly with The Messenger’s degrees of REtrograde action, Uranus is also now in forward motion in Aries. The planet of originality, reform, and the unexpected will still only be at the beginnings of the breakthroughs to come in the years ahead while journeying with The Ram as it transits from 01 to 02 degrees. However, this is a factor to equally take into consideration of understanding just how the unexpected may find you wherever Aries energy personally affects your natal birth chart.

From the collective perspective, we have a quick and easy guide which points to one of your favored areas of reflection over this passage. The 24 to 12 degrees Aries piece in your natal birth chart points to the other.

Aries: Approaches/Mask to the World/First Impressions
Taurus: Inner Psyche/Clearing of the Past/Subconscious
Gemini: Innovations/Friendships/Organizations/Wishes
Cancer: Career/Public Life/Opportunities
Leo: Philosophies/Foreign Travel/Education/Beliefs
Virgo: Transformations/Sexuality/Wealth/Death & Rebirth
Libra: Partnerships/Marriage/Balance with Others
Scorpio: Health/Being of Service/Employees/Pets
Sagittarius: Creativity/Children/Love Affairs
Capricorn: Home/Family/Emotions/Security
Aquarius: Thinking/Mentality/Communications
Pisces: Values/Earning Power/Possessions

As always, it is more important than ever to note the normal RE’s of any Mercury REtrograde passage. The surge that this transit will bring to your Aries piece of the Zodiac Pie is one where a regenerative force is being asked to occur. Rest assured, RElease will happen here. Initiations for the long-term within this section of the life should be held off until after Direct Motion returns, 23 April.

A huge tip as well, it is highly recommended to file your taxes before the 30 March. Being tax-time involves all too many details and getting things done right, and the signing of legal documents, communications here will be “blinded by Mercury.” Sending love and light now to all accountants to get through the petty annoyances that our Messenger will bring as he goes backwards over 15 April’s deadline.

Keep in mind, those events and situations that occurred after 16 March- fall under the approach of this REtrograde. We tend to start to see the things that will undergo reassessment emerge over these couple weeks. Equally before the shadow completes upon 08 May, you will see further opportunities for final adjustments that need to be made from all action occurring within the retrograde period.

While we are wise to avoid important decisions and ultimate new beginnings at this time, our activity and behavior while in REadjustment is imperative. We are meant to adhere to the most as we gravitate to the words that begin with RE, thus allowing us to take to up the actions of: REdoing, REassessing, REading, REvisiting, REjoicing, REaligning, REsting, REviewing, and by all means RElaxing!

The DO’s & DON’TS of Mercury REtrograde…

DO:
REmain Calm!
Expect CHANGE: in travel, routines, & schedules to occur suddenly
Expect CHANGE: in technology & transportation mechanisms, all communications
Give yourself extra time to get where you’re going
Spend time in the RE’s: RElax, REvisit, REflect, REdo, REcharge!
Gravitate to REsponding vs. REacting!

DON’T:

“Freak out” when changes come up
Rush: speaking, driving, doing anything!
Sign important documents, especially legal ones
Initiate anything new

The uncanny power of Lexigrams is also here as always to REmind you as well how to best find ease under this passage. There is an important tale for every sign to hear that is told from the letters within the very name of Mercury Retrograde:

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, FULL MOON in VIRGO, 2011

LUNAR-O-SCOPE
Full Moon
at 28 deg Virgo
19 March
2:10PM EDT

It is that time of the month again when all of our recent initiations find their strongest light. Our Moon enters Virgo, Thursday 17 March at 4:53pm EDT until Saturday, 19 March at 4:03pm EDT.

The Full Moon typically brings intensity to our emotions, and this month as our Lunar Lady is closest to the Earth in over 18 years, we can be sure that amazingly strong feelings will emerge. Precisely as it peaks in its’ fullness, The Moon becomes Void-Of-Course, which equally asks for us to engage in reflection until it enters Libra a couple hours later.

Mars presently guards our Sun in Pisces; who will be only a mere 10 degrees away from it as the 28-degree Virgo Full Moon kicks-off Saturday at 2:10pm EDT. We truly have a dynamic pull against what is meant to complete as review time begins once more within our lives. As Mars further motivates the recent new beginnings over our Waxing Phase, release wishes to occur in the opposite area of your Zodiac Pie.

Our Moon, as it completes its’ waxing in shy Virgo, also is at a very vulnerable place as all light is shining upon her. However The Virgin serves within you, energies and emotions here have all the more open channel to let guards down, and possible insecurities be revealed. Yet, it is under this concentration that beneficial inner work and healing can be done.

This Full Moon in Virgo requests that the collective looks to matters concerning health, purity, routine, service, and efficiency in our habits. Our present Sun in Pisces brings on the enthusiasm for sympathy and understanding, now being complimented by the Moon, engages in balance with the logical choices of health and serving others.

Your Virgo piece of your personal Zodiac Pie points to where you will feel quite an intensity this Saturday, as well as the area of life to focus upon for release and reflection for the next two weeks until our next New Moon upon 03 April.

For the collective horoscope, again we offer advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember, if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Keep in mind, it is full analysis of the individual birth chart that truly indicates how the current planetary energies are uniquely affecting you.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE Full Moon in Virgo, 19 March

Aries: Been imagining to improve your personal habits and health Dear Rams? If you’ve been headstrong and choose not to focus on this important task at hand, it’s time to listen up. There is a worn-out way you are being of service to others, so take this time to let go, and get ready for a new routine. Pay close attention to dreams tonight, they will let you know what exactly to do to make it happen.

Taurus: Let The Bull happily out of his pen! Whatever artistic or creative adventure you’ve been putting all your patience into for comes to a conclusion. Children or brain children require your attention now. You’ve been feeling open to love affairs, and it is best to take a stance and ponder where they fit upon your stage of life. Take up courage with any conflicts with friends that may arise.

Gemini: Emotions swirl as you arrive at conclusions that pertain to your home and family. The Career desires more right now, but remember there is still balance you need to place in this opposing area of your life. Don’t logically think that sense of déjà vu is the other side of yourself talking- be sure to listen to the instinctive messages being channeled to you.

Cancer: There’s an out-dated thought process Dear Crabs that must be released. You instinctively know it’s best not to worry, so take this planetary gift and find far better ways to spend your time thinking. Your beliefs are stimulated strongly to change when you do. Complete the educational pursuits that sharpen your intuition and lend you more logic to curb emotional reactions- learn them now!

Leo: Focus intensifies upon your values, earning power, and what is it all worth to you. Now is the time to reclaim your securities. Take a hearty look at your possessions, swallow up the pride, and let go of something so new values will be granted the proper room to grow. Remember the new beginnings that have begun their transformations from the last New Moon? These grow stronger now.

Virgo: Don’t shy away from this magical spotlight! You recent new partnership beginnings now ask for you to try on some new approaches and let go of habits that don’t truly serve you. You’re humble enough to take this time for yourself without raising the ego bar too high, so go on, let the world see those first impressions of yours morph into more practical means you are meant to share.

Libra: Those inner layers of your Scales look for some solitary time to even it all out. Your psyche is vibrant with internal messages it wishes to process. Matters of the subconscious are able to be resolved. Tie up the loose ends concerning the hidden parts of yourself: be friendly to them. Ultimately, these help you further the recent changes you have made in the area of serving others.

Scorpio: There is a request to take a look at routines within your friendships and organizations. Whatever doesn’t serve you here now presents the perfect opportunity for change. Reflect upon the recent roles you’ve played in your groups, and your wishes here will blossom later on. Your creative urges are finding light to shine; so accept the invitation to socialize, it helps them flourish.

Sagittarius: Career matters look to you for decisions that will be made on where it is all going. There is a lot of transition in this area of the life as reflection unfolds. Your purpose, mission, and reputation all are awaiting significant changes, which you, above all signs, are always eager for. Make logical reassessments here now, and leave the dreaminess at home where it belongs.

Capricorn: Your philosophical outlooks are in review and which ones serve you best for the long-term. There’s an important trip that’s either finishing now, you will take, or you are reflecting upon. There is an urge to expand somehow, and idealism is surely by your side to make sure you are optimistically climbing the mountain that leads you to higher education. Stop the fighting within your mind.

Aquarius: Your wealth and financial revisions look for new life to be brought to them. Not enough intimacy in a personal relationship? Take some time in this area to reflect upon bringing in a true transformation here, for this is no time to remain fixed in resistance. Your earning power and sense of value has lots of new energy behind it, so feel inventive in how you can make it all worth more.

Pisces: Those closest to you, personal or business related, captivate your feelings for this lunation, as you’ll sense the request for release and conclusion here. People come and people go, and you’ll have to tap into your intuition, which, logically shows you the answers you seek here. With all of your dynamic new approaches, be sure you keep swimming in the school of courage, not ego.

IT’S ALSO…. a SUPER MOON! SERMON a SURE ENORMOUS ONE; SURE ROUSES & OPENS PERSONS MORE; USE MUSE PROSE POEMS; USE OUR RUNES; SOON MORE POURS UPON US

This Full Moon is the closest one to the Earth in over 18 years!

WORD PONDER: FORGIVENESS

“Known as the voice of the people, Frog is the communicator who assists us in our transformations.”
–Native American Saying

Just what in the world do FROGS and FORGIVENESS have in common? Well, for starters, our ancestors have always known Frogs hold quite a significant energy when it comes to helping us process through our transient times within our lives. When it may be in our best interest to apply FORGIVENESS to a given situation, call upon the FROGS to bring you assistance.

We’ll see in a bit just how the Lexigrams of FORGIVENESS reveal to us that FROGS have an ancient tie to freeing up stagnant energy. First, let’s take a refresh about what exactly the act of forgiving is all about.

Defined as a noun, FORGIVENESS is “the act of pardoning somebody for a mistake or wrong doing.” It also can mean “the tendency to forgive offenses readily and easily.”

What happens to us when we engage in this action? Ideally, we are able to free ourselves and release whatever wrong doing or offense occurred to no longer occupy space within our life. FORGIVENESS is freeing, and when we submit to it, offers us the opportunities to learn, grow, blossom and expand when we let it in to our practice.

Such is the numerical expression of the very word FORGIVENESS. It is nothing short of uncanny that it carries a 39/12/3 vibration, that of The Sacrifice –The Victim. The Chaldeans understood the vibrations of 12 to be ones that always ask any of us to be “the kneeling submissive student.” By being in the lesson of forgiveness, we may sacrifice, yet, the education we gain from the experience grants us sovereignty. As The Chaldeans so innately grasped about the presence of the 12: “When the intellect is sacrificed to the feelings, the mind will be illuminated with the answers it seeks. Look within for the solution. Attention paid to the requirements of education will end suffering and bring success.”

Listening to Jupiters’ wisdom here through the 3 is especially important to understand how to adapt to a new philosophy. FORGIVENESS equally allows us to expand, become educated; while definitely aligning us to a new sense of freedom within our soul.

It may never be an easy process to take part in FORGIVENESS, but when we do, there isn’t a doubt that we are able to embrace a freedom within this transformation. Hence where the brilliance of our FROGS come into play. You’ll notice some additional “coincidences” from the Lexigrams of FORGIVENESS when it comes to FROGS and the number 5, the very number of transition and permanent change, guided by our Messenger Mercury.

FROGS name expression is that of the 23, The Royal Star of the Lion. Hone in on paying homage to FROGS when you forgive and the blessings of the 23 and 5 are sure to bestow themselves upon you. When the 23 is present during challenging times: “it guarantees help from superiors and protection from those in high places. No number can challenge the Lion’s strength and win.”

What is further fascinating is what just one FROG alone can do. FROG carries the name expression the 20’s The Awakening. Probably the most difficult part of the process of FORGIVENESS is the emotional upheaval it can bring. Again here’s where the FROG assists us, for with the 20, draws upon protection from the Moon, who aids our emotional understanding and feelings. The Chaldeans noted the energy of the 20 to grant: “a powerful awakening, bringing in a new purpose, new plans, new ambitions- the call to action for some great cause or ideal. 20 brings the blessing of vivid precognitive dreams, plus the ability to manifest the happy ones and cancel the negative ones.”

Even one of the most famous frogs we know, has some wisdom to lend us here: “If you wait until the frogs and toads have croaked their last to take some action, you’ve missed the point.” ~Kermit the Frog

So, when you next find yourself in the situation where FORGIVENESS is the necessary action for you to take to properly keep moving on in your life without the weight of what you truly do not need, take up with the FROGS. Be prepared however, to be ready to receive the giving gifts that will ultimately reflect back to you as your soul continues to rise. The act of forgiveness -as its’ Lexigrams (the poetic phrasing of the anagrams within this very word) reveal- will indeed set you free.

FORGIVENESS

I NEVER GIVE IN FOR I SERVE IN FREEING SIN
I REIGN IN SOVEREIGN VERSIONS
I GOVERN OVER NO SIN OR FOREIGN GRIEVES
I IGNORE NERVES, EGO, INNER FIRES OR NOISE INFERS
I SING IN FINE FREEING REGIONS
FROGS IN FIVE GIVE GENESIS, FREEING IN a REVISE
SEEING IN FIVE EVENS, RINGS IN a RISE
I RISE IN FIVE, I GO ON IN a “FROG EON:” I GIVE IN NO SIN
I RINSE IN GRIEF, I SEE IN FINESSE
GREEN IS FREEING, SEE IN GREEN FOR FREEING SIN
GIVERS FREE, ROVING IN FIVE, RISE
I FORGE IN FREEING FOR I VIE SIN IS GONE
I SING, SIGN IN A FREEING SONG EONS ON
GO ON, FORGIVE: I RISE, RISE, RISE….

Namaste Dear Stars. HOP on in HOPE. =)

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, NEW MOON in PISCES, 2011

LUNAR-O-SCOPE
NEW Moon
13 degrees Pisces
04 March
3:46pmEST

We always welcome the time of the month when Moon is in sync with our Sun, for our emotions are able to receive another fresh start! A NEW Moon in Pisces brings forth deep and ever-active feelings as our Lunar Lady takes a swim with The Fishes, Thursday, 03 March at 11:47amEST until Sunday, 06 March at 12:14amEST.

When our New Moon shows itself in the dreamy energies of Pisces -the sign that consciously aims for understanding- there couldn’t be a more auspicious time to receive impressions that open up our intuitive natures. For the collective there is the possibility of restless feelings that may create some waves, so make sure you stay swimming in safe waters.

When susceptible energies are around, it is easy to gravitate to indecisive, weak-willed, and lazy tendencies. There is great power in cultivating clarity and concentrating on instinct during this passage. Be cautious however of deceptive, self-indulgent, and chaotic feelings.

Be sure to check the Piscean House, in particular the 13-degree Pisces spot, in your personal birth chart to see where a new energy is ideally meant to unfold. This is the area of life that requests an initiation in the next two weeks to follow. Seeds that you plant in this half of your Zodiac pie as the light gathers until the next Full Moon upon 19 March, are bound to reap a rich harvest further down the road.

What packs an extra punch to this month is the presence of Mars and Mercury who already have been equally journeying with The Fishes. There has been plenty of motivation and drive stirring the communications, thinking and mentality where Pisces wisdom falls in your birth chart. Fast moving and active energies are here stimulating receptivity, intuition, and diplomatic responses. Beware of unstable, illogical, and confused perceptions.

For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember, if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Keep in mind, it is full mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that truly indicates how the current planetary energies are uniquely affecting you.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE: NEW Moon in Pisces, 04 March

Aries: You’re no stranger to exploration Dear Ram, so take the fire down and dive into those inner places in your life. The self-discovery you are about to unfold will have you totally prepped for Springs’ bloom.

Pisces: The light is anew for you Dear Fishes to put on a fresh new face. Exciting new feelings of self-sufficiency take on a pioneering approach in the waters you choose to swim in.

The world is so ready to see you differently- and you’ve already been preparing to reveal the inspiring new ways you’ll now receive your first impressions. But before you can get back to helping those in need, it’s you who is more than deserving of your own gentle care now.

WORD PONDER: LISTEN

WORD PONDER

“BE silent,
like a fish.“

-Rumi

LISTEN

It is now the time of year for Pisces, when the collective swims with the endless possibilities of The Fishes. As a whole each one of us are presented with making decisions in life, thus choosing one of two conceivable outcomes. More often than not, the important choices we make, offset a chain of events that will further unfold within our lives.So how can Pisces help us? Think of their symbol the fish, as they swim in the myriad of choices within any given ocean. How do you think they make the right choices for themselves, in the course of nature? The Fish, as do many of our animals and any non-speaking living being, keep it real simple. The Fish takes in a LISTEN to know what to do.

Listening is a skill that we are introduced to learn early on in our lives, and it is one skill that carries on through the end of any life. While we are told to be SILENT, we are in essence being ask to LISTEN. You really can’t really do one without the other.

Pisces time is the one time of the year we are in the midst of becoming fully prepared for Spring’s arrival, as we awaken from our states of hibernation. Being in a LISTEN to winter’s exit and spring’s preview can be a remarkable experience. How often can you look around and say you are absolutely SILENT?

So, collectively the time is now, to honor the Pisces area within our birth charts, and LISTEN to what is happening here. When you give yourself the time to be SILENT; then see what comes in when you ask for insight and clarity for the best choice to make here. As you then ENLIST IT and LET IT IN, the mystery remains to unfold as the ocean continuously brings its’ endless possibilities.

What’s even most favorable is the potential of numerological energy than can unfold when one decides to ENLIST IN a SILENT LISTEN. It is a blessing to be in the presence of the 21 and the gifts of ‘The Crown of the Magi” are bestowed upon any of these three intentions. As the Chaldeans so deeply understood: “21 is pictured as “The Universe,” and also is called “The Crown of the Magi.” It promises general success, and guarantees advancement, honors, awards, and general elevation in the life and career. It indicates victory after a long struggle, for the “Crown of the Magi” is gained only after long initiation, much soul testing and various other tests of determination. However, the person or entity blessed with the number 21 may be certain of final victory over all odds and all opposition.”

I don’t know about you, but having a LISTEN, and choosing to ENLIST and LET IT SIT IN a SILENT time sure sounds worth it to me. By the way, the 21 is also a karmic reward number, equally guided by Jupiter’s wisdom, optimism, and expansion through the singular 3. Wow. Who knew that being SILENT in a LISTEN can surely ENLIST one in to a rich harvest? Rumi knew long ago how beneficial it is to: “Be silent, like a fish. You’re in deep waters now.”

Namaste Dear Stars.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, FULL MOON in LEO, 2011

LUNAR-O-SCOPE
FULL MOON in Leo,
18 February,
3:36amEST

Looking to what has gathered since our New moon in Aquarius 02 February, it’s time to bring all into the spotlight of Leo. As our waning phase now begins, be ready to release where the Lion reigns within your Zodiac forest.

If you’ve had some clear evenings in your part of the globe, you more than likely have noticed our Lunar Lady has been gaining light in the past couple days. Our Moon enters Leo, Wednesday, 16 February at 4:14amEST until Friday, 18 February at 4:39amEST.

We all know the Full Moon typically brings intensity to our emotions. The days leading up to and following Friday’s luminous showcase will bring up drama, opinionated feelings, self-indulgence, and conceited attitudes to those unaware on the collective. Steer clear of unbridled desires and inflammatory reactions; be on the lookout for brash, rude, and militant attitudes to be flying around.

For those who are checking their ego at the door: fertile instincts, passionate feelings- generous, confident, and loyal energies can indeed emerge. The capacity for leadership, receiving admiration, and radiating warmth are the natural gifts of Moon in Leo, along with dignified responses. Gravitating to whatever is heartfelt is the winning choice here.

Be sure to check the Leo House, in particular the 29-degree piece, in your natal birth chart to see where a release is ideally meant to unfold in your life. This is the area of life that takes it all away within the next two weeks through 04 March that request you reflect upon and do a little mid-winter cleaning.

For the collective horoscope, again we offer advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember, if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Always remember, it is full mathematical analysis of the natal birth chart that truly indicates how the current planetary energies are uniquely affecting you.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE Full Moon in Leo, 2011

Aries: It’s a true time for you Rams to really socialize! Planning to focus upon completing that creative adventure you’ve been diligently working on will hold your attention. Should you have children, they may require your attention now. If there is a love affair flirting with you, this can easily move on to a higher level. Reflection mode is required about whether things should move forward or be dissolved.

Taurus: There are a many conclusions you will be arriving at that pertain to your home and family life. Watch out for any domesticated drama, and especially now don’t react to it- respond! Should a sense of stagnation be present- you may not feel the room to move. Look to the existing structure that may no longer be working. That sense of déjà vu has a high potential to occur, so listen to that instinct you hear from within, as its’ message is of karmic importance.

Gemini: What is the thought process that no longer serves you Dear MINI GEM? There is a worn out pattern desiring release here. You seek review in something you recently learned. There is a better way to spend your time- take this waning passage to complete a needed education pursuit that enlivens that need to know intellect of yours.

Cancer: Financially, you should be feeling better about how you are taking in your daily bread. Spending time re-evaluating your value system, allows you to re-anchor your securities. Take a hearty look at your possessions, and what those claws no longer need to hold onto, let them wash away with the tide. Making room here now will open the door for something new to bless you later on.

Leo: The Lunar spotlight shines upon the King of the Forest! Be careful not to take everything around you to complete heart. In fact, self-focus is favored right now, so you can reflect upon what approaches no longer work for you. is a marvelous antidote for this transit. Humility will allow you to gain the real insight you need, while the world awaits for you to take off that old worn out mask that you have now outgrown.

Virgo: Those logical feelings may not find you now. Whether it makes sense or not, it is best to take a look at the inner layers of your psyche (which is not the most comfortable place for your Virgins), the unknown. However, your subconscious is primed for you to pay attention to the most hidden parts of yourself. Don’t be afraid to be of service to what you see, for healing old wounds here makes room for brilliant self-realizations.

Libra: All will be a buzz of energy in your friendships and organizations. While you are the Zodiac Star of the never-ending balancing act of life, if there is a friend who is not peaceful to you, it’s time to let them go, or work it out. Prioritizing and goal setting in your groups right now allows all of your wishes to come true later on. Accept that unexpected invitation to get out and socialize: it holds some keys to the future.

Scorpio: Career matters are on the surface right now, and you are urged to reflect upon them. Your purpose, mission, and reputation all are awaiting significant changes, as your public image takes center stage. Your views upon authority may also find you probing over this waning phase. Remember when you soar above it all, you find your preferred outcomes utilizing the scope that your Eagle eye is so innate at gathering.

Sagittarius: Aim your arrows in the direction of gaining more of that philosophy you love so much Archer. Reflecting upon your beliefs also captivates you. If you aren’t on a trip that’s finishing upright now, you’ll be feeling like making plans for one later on. However you can find the way to travel, make sure you are in pursuit of something that puts your spirit in higher education.

Capricorn: Looking to make some financial revisions old Goat? It’s a prominent time to reassess investments, get to those taxes, or review your shared/joint resources. While you are sometime unsure of deep changes, rest assured these are ready to be embraced now. Is there a need for more intimacy in a personal relationship? Now is a fantastic time to focus upon things on a physical level, as your drive right now is completely illuminated!

Aquarius: Those closest to you, personal or business related, now take your center emotional stage. You feel less detached within these than normal, as you yearn for human contact. If a decision needs to be made here, its’ answer will completely unfold by the next New Moon. However, now is not the time to withdraw, but to look to the self to see how to bring new life to the situation at hand.

Pisces: Been feeling it would be wise to improve your routine, personal habits, or health? Don’t doubt your psychic powers now dear Fishes, because your intuition is right on! Let go of a habit that no longer serves you. There are definite changes occurring that deal with how you are of service to the world, so hone in on daily patterns and make sure the waters you are swimming in are healthy and safe ones.

The YEAR OF THE METAL RABBIT, 2011-12

THE YEAR
OF THE METAL RABBIT


03 February 2011
to
23 January 2012

We collectively celebrate the Chinese New Year on 03 February 2011: The Year of the Rabbit/Metal Year. The Chinese Zodiac can lend anyone insight into their personality and natural tendencies, like our Western Zodiac can provide. Our friends in the West take their Zodiac and divide it into 12 signs as does Western Astrology, yet one animal sign influences an entire year verses one month.

The intricate link in understanding the common ground of these two systems is the transits of Jupiter, which take approximately one year to transit through one Zodiac sign in the West. Here in the West it only takes that same years’ time to represent all 12 signs on our Zodiac wheel, while our friends in the East take 60 years to complete a full cycle, as each animal every 12 years is depicted through 5 different elemental years of earth, metal, water, wood, and fire.

Diplomacy and agreement will be rewarded in 2011, as the collective can expect this to be a time of peace, settlement, sensitivity, and one where attention paid to home and family is fortunate. The energy of comparison to stimulate agreements and conciliatory measures encompasses the political landscape. Advances within the medical field, welfare reform, and the arts all take center stage as the months within 2011 unfolds.

Now the collective experiences the 4th year within a 9 and 12-year cycle, where the seeds planted in 2008 are still in their incubation to eventually reap a harvest further down the road. With Uranus guiding the singular 4’s energy over 2011, there is originality, restructuring, and innovations to be found amongst the Rabbits urges for peace. 2011 marks the time when revolutionary ideas that are accompanied with a non-violent approach will bring us to a deeper understanding of the very world we all live in.

Grasping the true wisdom behind REVOLUTION plays a wise role in securing the future. At last a real one can now begins as this word calls to us to ponder: LET LOVE RULE NOT EVIL. For when we UNTIE IT IN A TRUE LOVE ROUTINE, we will all surely adapt smoothly to what virtue and refined energy of the Rabbit -especially within the added strength of the Metal Year- ultimately requests of us all.

All is set to the cozy lairs of our home environments and family life in a Metal Rabbit Year as we allow our sensitivity to co-operate. The Rabbit asks that we awaken a fertile and mothering instinct within ourselves. Once more under the Metal influenced year, these qualities are intensified and yearn to be strengthened all the more. With the Rabbit representing Yin Wood energy, what transpires over the year ahead brings forth longevity from the actions instilled.

As the Moon is closely connected to the Chinese understanding of the Rabbit, there is a great deal of mystery and intuition marking the energies we have access to. The choices of discreet, principled, refined, and honorable decisions are intelligent and respected ones within a Metal Rabbit Year.

DID YOU KNOW??? RABBIT TRIVA:

*YOU ARE IN the company of a Rabbit when you see a peaceful, practical, articulate, and perceptive spirit that happily shows that life is to be savored by enjoying the quieter things in simplicity.

*THE TYPICAL RABBIT is diplomatic, at times unpredictable/timid, enjoys conversation, makes their surroundings comfortable, pays attention to detail, enjoys routine, prefers entertaining at home verse going out, possesses an intense love for the family, dislikes arguments and avoids unpleasantness.

*RABBITS ARE Yin Wood energy, where the internal feminine represents the nurturing role and gravitating to reflection, privacy, and comforts. The symbol of wood allows for an flexible nature to emerge. The energy of the Rabbit can become unbalanced when irritable and confused under sudden changes and unforeseen events.

*RABBIT YEARS in history mark a time for balancing and opportunities to unfold for advancements within the arts, medical fields and our domesticated lives. 1903, 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1962, 1975, 1987, 1999, all saw large-scale changes within these areas on a global level, as will 2011, being all the more intensified and strengthened by the Metal energy guiding this particular year. As the months ahead pass, we will be called to engage our sympathy, understanding, and nurturing more and more as situations requiring comforts prevail.

Chinese Zodiac FUN Facts:

*The Chinese New Year is always celebrated upon an Aquarian New Moon here in the West.

*Legend has it how the Chinese Zodiac Wheel order formed is that the Ox was the second animal in line when Buddha asked the animals to come to him.

*At the ages of 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 82, 94, 106, typically one experiences a very positive year as their animal returns. Coinciding with West’s planet of luck, Jupiter, returns to its’ natal point also every 12 yrs.

*At 60, the Chinese believe one’s greatest wisdom begins to unfold as one full cycle of their wheel concludes. Simultaneously In the West, the 2nd Saturn Return, in agreement with this passage also marks the soul being released into the finest period of self -expression and inner power after learning our most important life’s lessons over the previous 59.
