LUNAR-O-SCOPE

NEW Moon in Leo


30 July

REviewing Benevolence

TIME to bring all anew to the area of life where The Lion reigns in your Zodiac Pie! A fresh start in Leo promises generous and confident energies you definitely don’t want to miss-out on. Yet, it is wise to be in the know with this particular lunation, the communications that Mercury has recently brought here, now will wish to be ideally reflected upon before moving forward. Where are you best to focus upon the typical Mercury Retrograde redo and review from the Universe?

Moon enters Leo 30 July 2:16am EDT to 01 Aug 4:41am EDT

Leo Lunar energy must beware of conceited, self-indulgent, and opinionated energies that may arise. When there is plenty of magnanimous leadership around, it is easy to gravitate to not being able to recognize limitations. While a strong sense of pleasure-loving and dramatization mark any planetary passage through The Lion, the cultivation of humility, altruism, thrift, and attention to detail will allow this transit to reap its’ greatest rewards.


New Moon, 30 July, 2:40pm EDT 7 degrees Leo

As our Moon and Sun align once more, a NEW Moon in Leo brings forth passionate and heartfelt feelings as our Lunar Light joins hands with The Lion. As another waxing phase begins, it’s time to get those new ideas and initiations out there to gather in the light. When our New Moon embarks in the dignified energies of Leo -the sign that consciously aims for creative self-expression- the collective is primed to tap into some inspiration and faith. Fire is Leo’s elemental influence, so be alert to the radiating gifts that are meant to unfold- as this New Moon kicks off an loyal and vital force that The Lion wishes to share with the world.

For the Collective

No sooner do we celebrate our yearly offering for bringing on the new in Leo, than will Mercury begin his 2nd Retrograde Period of 2011. As we embark upon the New Moon 30 July, our Messenger of movement will be starting his station as he slows down to 0 degrees Virgo, only reaching the 12th minute of 01 degrees Virgo by 02 August. Once Retrograde, Mercury takes until 08 August to re-enter Leo, where he will remain until 09 September.

While this Mercury Retrograde will not quite touch back to the 7 degree point of our New Moon in Leo, you can be sure that there is revising that will wish to occur from this area of your Zodiac Pie. It will be wise to take the New Moon’s offering of fresh starts to emerge here and slowly but surely tend to them over the Mercury Retrograde transit. Remember, when The Messenger isn’t looking where he is going, human error is the highest. Therefore, it is best to hold off on true legal signings and any initiations for the future when Mercury is instead asking you to reflect and reassess within this area of the life, 02 to 26 August.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, New Moon in Leo, 2011

For the collective horoscope, again we offer advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. If you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Remember it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

Aries: Rams, it is really time for you to socialize! Focus upon a new creative adventure to work on, or 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. However, all wish to be re-examined as August evolves. As you revisit the familiar energies in this area of the life, see what you may no longer need to continue to bring forth the innovative approaches coming to you.

Taurus: There are a many new things being planted that pertain to your home and family life. This passage marks a time to bring heartfelt feelings to where you feel most secure and loved. 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. As Mercury dips back into where the Lion reigns in your life, expect a bit of re-arranging here- so yes there are weeds too to take out by the root.

Gemini: You’re always thinking and catching thoughts from any direction, yet be ready for some truly inspiring ones to find you now. The mental state will be feeling entirely refreshed as your genius inventions should be strong at this time. The ability to organize your mind is high, urging you to embark upon a needed education pursuit to enliven that need to know intellect of yours. After all that is said and done, unite it with the other side and sit down for that necessary review.

Cancer: Financially, you should be feeling better about opportunities that have been recently coming your way. Your value system and security are ready for the boost, and take focus. Give a hearty look at your possessions, and see what really means the most to you, as there may be some necessary new purchases you are about to make. You may find, if you buy them under Mercury’s Retrograde you’ll be apt to return them, so make a list and seek-out the bargain later.

Leo: The Lion just loves to be on the stage as the newest light of the year is upon you now. As you put on a new mask for the world to see, and also take on a fresh approaches to life- these then will wish all the same to be re-evaluated. Humility allows you to gain the real insight you seek, as it lets you see through the entire forest you have reign over. Reassessing those heartfelt first impressions- and seeing how you can shine brighter is where your loyalty shines in August.

Virgo: Nothing is feels logical right now does it? There is a fresh energy emerging with the inner layers of your psyche, the unknown. Your subconscious is requesting for you to pay attention to the most hidden parts of yourself, and don’t be afraid to be of service to what you see, for a new healing wants to happen. Dreams are a remarkable tool under this Mercury Retrograde, study and review them well. Should reoccurring ones talk to you, take extra special note of them.

Libra: There is a buzz of energy in your friendships and organizations. While you have definitely been feeling your personal re-balancing acts going on lately, now is the time to go for that social invitation -especially if it is unexpected- to get out there and relate to it all. Reassessing within your groups right equally allows all of your dreams and wishes to come true later on. Remember, should friends seem like they can’t quite communicate well, just give them a little understanding.

Scorpio: Career matters and the public life are on the surface right now, and decisions need to be made on where it is all going. Your purpose, mission, and reputation all are awaiting significant changes, so if something different shows up, take it on for review- but move forward after Mercury is through not looking where he is going! While power is always around you, your take on authority may surface for some reflection, so scope out the re-organizing to do here.

Sagittarius: You’ll find fortunate aims your arrows can take towards gaining more of that philosophy you love so much Archer. Embarking on or making plans for a new adventure? You always find ways to travel, but make sure the next one places you in pursuit of something that takes your spirit to the realms of higher education. Being you love change, the alterations in plans Mercury will bring, just allow you to adapt to a new belief you didn’t consider up til now.

Capricorn: Need some financial revisions old Goat? It’s a prominent time to take a look at investments, or take a look at your shared/joint resources. Looking for more intimacy in a personal relationship? It’s a fantastic time to focus upon things on a physical level, as you may be finding yourself, not thinking about all that work to be done. Remember, under Mercury’s reflection, revise those opportunities for wealth and transformation, and act upon them later.

Aquarius: Now is not the time to be detached, but to look to yourself to see how to bring new life to all of your partnerships in life. There should be plenty of light in this area for you at present, and be on the look out for warmth to be felt here. There is plenty of friendly energy that urges your one-on-one bonds to solidify to new levels. As Mercury may resurface past relationships you haven’t though of in awhile, see what these wish to remind you of.

Pisces: Is there something that’s been intuitively telling you to start to bring improvements your routine, personal habits, or health? Of course your psychic powers are working wonderfully dear Fishes! Definite changes that deal with your ability to be of service to the world are in the works- the fresh waters you are meant to be swimming in are cleaner ones. You may start and stop over Mercury’s backwards passage, but keep with discovering the wonders of a contented new you.

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

FULL Moon
in Capricorn

15 July

2:40am EDT

Grounding Emotions

We’re now in reversal mode from the depths of Winter, as we are about to take on a Full Moon in Capricorn, ideally bringing to fruition what beginnings emerged from the Solar Eclipse here upon 04 January. As we now go into reflection mode until the next New Moon in Leo, there’s plenty to gain from seeing how the years’ initiations from the Capricorn area of life have seen their slow and patient process of growth.

Moon enters Capricorn 10:14am EDT 13 July to 4:30pm EDT 15 July

The virtues of reliability, ambition and prudence are natural gifts of a Moon in Capricorn. While instincts may be sluggish, the capacity to apply diligence is more favored to shape our feelings during this passage. The collective gravitates to a practical quality -urged to focus on serious matters and be oriented towards the self- as time in the workplace can bring comfort now. Steadfast, austere and fatherly energies tend to demand more from our Lunar Lady, who ideally is fed what she naturally lacks when journeying with The Goat.

FULL Moon, 15 July, 2:40am EDT, 22 degrees Capricorn

As souls we can take this opportunity to bring forth what needs to now complete and reflect within our lives- with wisdom and responsibility marking our moves. Take the next 2 weeks to see what ultimately has occurred in this area of the life since 2011 began. Visualize a releasing force as the Moon will travel from 22 degrees Capricorn to where 07 degrees Leo energy reigns within the birth chart. This half of your Zodiac Pie is now ready for a look-see and review through 30 July.

For the Collective

While we can now celebrate and see the completion of energy arrive to the Capricorn area of our lives, we are also seeing an interesting pull from Venus and Pluto who, are currently coming off an opposition from 5 degrees Cancer/Capricorn. While Pluto’s changes are ever-intense and gradual, the dynamic of the Venus-Pluto opposition that precisely occurred one week prior upon 08 July, still has a dynamic affect with Venus moving forward at 13 degrees Cancer. As our Moon and Sun wish to offer their monthly yin and yang light show, we also have a request to tie in our sense of values and harmony verses letting go and rebirthing within our lives. Rather than be the magnetic force of resistance, recognizing how Cancer and Capricorn energy can bring achievement through the experience of grounding our emotions, grants amazing security one can ultimately rely on.


LUNAR-O-SCOPE, FULL Moon in Capricorn, 2011

For the collective horoscope, again we offer advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. If you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Remember it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you. Happy, Happy Reflecting…

ARIES: You’ve already got more energy than most in the Zodiac Dear Ram, but now your fire fuels-up the career, which certainly already has been giving you a taste of the transformations that are on your horizon here. You know what must come to an end- so don’t be impatient in letting it go. The public life is meant to get the review session after all the recent hard work here. Remember equally what is important to focus upon at home, as it brings harmony to all else.

TAURUS: It’s time for the Bull to unlock it’s stance and get onto traveling matters. Think of a place you’ve never been: now is the time to go there! Equally, you have been drawn to higher education and a renewed philosophy on some level, but you may find what you’ve been doing to achieve this will now alter along it’s path. It’s time for a worn-out belief to say bye-bye. There is such pleasantry surrounding your thoughts right now, so keep up that imagination soaring.

GEMINI: This is an intense time that encourages your innate adaptability to be utilized as now they’ll be no stopping the transformations that are unfolding. If there is a personal relationship that needs a physical spark, you’ll not resist the temptation now- unite and conquer! Not happy with your financial investments? Now is a perfect time to investigate how to best revise them. The earning power should be feeling happy, so choose wisely how to make it worth more.

CANCER: Time for some decisions to arrive to the partnerships within your life Dear Crab. There are some people you may want to get your claws out of, and some you’d like to sink them deeper into. This will be no time to hide in your shell, as the reflection you bask in now, is backed up by truly romantic feelings all around. As you sensitivity imagine how you are taking on new and balanced approaches to life, these give back all the more from those you relate to.

LEO: You thought about the whole health kick back in January didn’t you? It may have taken this long to manifest within you to finally let go of worn out habits and routines that no longer serve the King of the Forest. Cast off any laziness and dismiss what must release, as a rebirth is unfolding in this area of the life. Been enjoying those more than telling dreams as of late? Keep writing them down, as they wish to truly relate inner harmony to match that renewed outer glow.

VIRGO: Dear Virgin: Stop fussing over those details with your current creative adventure, and please don’t worry, because you are completing the project at hand! Lingering issues or matters with children come to a resolution. A love affair moves to a deeper level, or out of the picture. Don’t be shy to entertain and be bold in taking the center stage with friends and groups. There are tremendous new forces coming from your hopes dreams and wishes: embrace them.

LIBRA: The home is where you may indeed be finding your heart feeling complete, as you seek to bring your Scales into further balance by finishing a long-term task here. What has been transforming in your family life? Release is ready, and this may come through in a déjà vu experience. However these manifest themselves, a true completion is unraveling on the home front, while all that harmony over in the career and public life is the perfect match to even it out.

SCORPIO: What mental pursuit have you been awaiting to end the investigation of? Now is the time where you will see a course of study, travel plans, or communication related ventures come full circle. You are drawn to the educational realms, and wherever your mind wants to probe, you’ll find conclusions there. Be cautious of anything dealing with transportation, for there may be delays or total re-workings of your plans. Peace comes from believing in honest outcomes.

SAGITTARIUS: Right now you are wise to keep those arrows of yours on the target of how you are managing your money and all those possessions you have. It’s time to part with something, as you have reaped such reward here all year. Ambition finds you becoming more aware of living in your means, and if you are anxious to release any debt, you’ll learn there is a way to complete the mission. Core transformations you experience only make you feel more secure and at home.

CAPRICORN: The Lunar Light show is upon you Old Goat! Get ready for some of your approaches to be released, even if, you may not think they are broken and need fixing. You’re in the realms of realizing what needs to come to a completion within your first impressions about life. There is an old mask to the world you are wearing that needs to be pulled off. This gets you ultimately in alignment with how to feel ever better about those new partnerships in your life.

AQUARIUS: You may feel like detaching yourself from everything, but it will be best for you to bring some new life to your deepest inner world, as the subconscious realms will speak loud and clear to you now. Your dreams are an intense guide to help you release any fears you may have, for what you may be hiding, is not meant to be your enemy any longer. Finding innovative ways to sharpen your own inner saw, allows your physical health to reflect happily in harmony.

PISCES: Take a swim in the sea of friendships and organizations Dear Fishes, as these waters now arrive in a place for you to tread in awhile. Let go of a worn-out hope or wish. Is there more responsibility from a group you belong to that some one wants to give you? Take it on, or leave it if the water is too stagnate. Let that beauty coming from your creative nature keep on flowing strongly. Oh and definitely don’t swim away from that unexpected invitation to socialize.

QUESTIONS? Sharita loves to answer them:! E: sharita@sharitastar.com

Word Ponder: Solitude

Taking time alone is a genuine gift to embrace within any life, in essence it is our souls’ true lifelong homework. When we choose to engage in our own personal sharpening of the inner saw, some amazing things can happen for us. Yet, why are so many people seemingly afraid of being alone in this day and age?

By definition, Solitude can mean:
1. the state of being alone, separated from other people, whether considered as a welcome freedom from disturbance or as an unhappy loneliness

2. a quality of remote quietness or seclusion in places from which human activity is generally absent

3. a remote or uninhabited place

What some people -based on a programmed belief that allows them to fear being alone- completely miss when they deny themselves this healthy time to clear out within their lives, is actually the perfect chance to create some real enchantment for themselves. The Name Expression (the numerological calculation of the value of the letters composing it) that guides the very word of Solitude is the Chaldean’s brilliant understanding of the 33, that of Love and Magic. Said the Chaldeans of the 33:“This carries the same vibration as the 24 – except that the magic of love, the extent of originality and creativity, and the promise of eventual financial success are deepened and increased. Due to the double 3, these entities are more fortunate in every way when involved in a harmonious partnership of some kind with the opposite sex, which applies to the career as well as romantic and marital relationships. This a number of well-deserved karmic reward. The 33 vibration is advised not to abuse the astounding luck which will descend on them at sometime during the life by allowing it to tempt them into laziness, overconfidence, and a feeling of superiority. When a sense of humor and genuine humility accompany the 33 vibration, it’s a wonderfully fortunate number.” ~Linda Goodman’s Star Signs

The 24 represents Love – Money – Creativity, which is a rich source of understanding than if one does what they truly love in life, focus upon their creativity, it’s practically a fool-proof formula that brings forth the likes of one of Venus’s favorites: money. Looking to both of these 6 vibrations, it is Venus who is in charge of anyone’s solitary moments.

Knowing the presence of Neptune over the 7 vibrations, (who seemingly can’t get enough of their alone time), one might think Solitude should tick to something like a 34 Name Expression instead. Why give the credit to Venus?

Venus is the planet that governs over harmony, peace, balance, and negotiations. No fan of lies or arguments, she’ll run for the hills to stay away from them. Also noting Venus’s appreciation of beauty and nature, one cannot deny the relationship that can be gained within the self if we choose to spend our solitary moments with Dear Old Momma Nature herself.

Time alone can bring forth such unity within our life, especially in our present day. The world we all co-exist within is filled with multitudes of choices that allow us all to attach and attract so much to us that we don’t even necessarily need. When we all keep going in the hustle and bustle pace of modern day society, it is without question a disconnection is happening for human beings everywhere.

Solitude is here to save the day and rescue our souls when we decide to step away from the intense buzz of life. Vibrating as a Master Number 33, aside from the Love and Magic, it is here to equally teach us from the two 3’s that compose it. Personal growth, learning, and honing in on what we wish to believe as our individual wisdom are all qualities guiding the 3. Unite these two 3’s together, and Venus’s harmony and peace can be a most pleasant outcome.

What else does Solitude have to say to us? Lexigrams, the poetic tale the anagrams tell from any word or title, provide further insight that is uncannily on target with what can happen to anyone when their free will decides to take that time to be in those silent listens.

SOLITUDE

I LET IT SIT, I IDLE SO I SITE SOUL TOIL
I LOSE, I OUST TIES TO OUTSIDE LIES
I SIT SO I LET OLD LIES DIE
IT IS TEDIOUS TO SIT, TO LET IT LOSE
LET a SOUL TIE IT TO SOLID TOIL DUTIES
DUEL LIES USE US, SOIL US DUE TO STOLID TIES
OLD LIES TOLD TO US LET US DIE
DILUTE LIES TO LET a LOST SOUL OUT
I EDIT: I LET LIES DUEL TO DIE TO DUST
I SLIDE TO SOLID SOUL TIES
I DO, I DO LET SOLID SOUL TIES OUT TO IDOL
LET’S USE a LOUD LOTUS TO LITE US TO LOTS O’ SOLID TIES

WORD PONDER: CHALLENGES

WORD PONDER

CHALLENGES

We all face them. Life is not complete without this word that seemingly in the end, truly does make us stronger. So exactly what is behind the energy that our world consistently faces and more often than not, overcomes?

As a name expression, CHALLENGES carries the Chaldeans’ understanding of the 36- that of The Sceptre. The karmic mystery of this number claims: “This is an excellent, harmonious and fortunate number of courage and power, with a touch of enchantment. It blesses the person or entity it represents with a promise of authority and command. It guarantees that great rewards will come from the productive labors, the intellect, and the imagination. All of these creative faculties have sown good seeds, which are to reap a rich harvest.”

We know when we see the 36, we also see the underlying guidance of the 9, as 3 + 6 logically reduces to. Here you have Mars, who is but of course the perfect planet to aide us in helping us through those challenges we may have to face. More often than not, to properly handle challenges, the very courage of the Warrior planet is required.

Mars, however -in the opposite potential of courage- can bring forth conflict, penetration, and aggressive action. Surely you are already well-aware when we feed into or allow these choices to become our beliefs when those challenges surface, we truly tend to suffer more than we have to.

The Chaldeans noted as well of the 36: “People or entities represented by the 36 should always carry out their own original plans and ideas, and not be intimidated or influenced by the diverse opinions or opposition of others. 36 is a number of karmic reward, earned in more than one previous incarnation.”

Amazing isn’t it? The choice of courage or conflict makes all the difference in the outcomes of the challenges that face us.

As always, the wisdom of Lexigrams provide the final layer of insight into what the hidden power within the word CHALLENGES is here to teach to us all. Next time you are faced with them, remember, Mars strength and courage is only a personal choice away from carrying your torch high above them in victory.

CHALLENGES

ALL CHANGES HEAL AS A SAGE
ALL CHANGES CAN CLEAN AS A CLEANSE
ANGELS SHALL HEAL AS CHANGES ANGLE ALL
AS CHANGES LASH AS HELL, HENCE SEE A SAGE HEAL CLEAN
AS CHANGES CAN CLASH, AN ANGEL CAN HEAL ALL CHANGES
AN EASE CAN ANGLE AS AN ANGEL CAN SEE ALL
CEASE A CHALLENGE, SEE A HEAL CLEANSE
CALL ALL ANGELS AS A CHALLENGE CALL

We didn’t tell all… WHAT does your ability to spiral within CHALLENGES see?

FULL Moon
in Scorpio

17 May, 7:09amEDT

Regenerating Our Core…

Moon enters Scorpio
Sunday 15 May, 12:31pm EDT til Tuesday, 17 May at 1:09pm EDT

Anytime our Moon is transiting in a water sign, our emotions have all the more tendency to become a powerful force over us. This month, as the Taurus Sun urges our ultimate patience and responsibility, the Moon reflects and asks that we examine our core and filter our emotions in regards to transformation and self-control while it journeys through complimentary Scorpio.

Full Moon, 17 May, 7:09am EDT, 26 degrees Scorpio
This is the second full illumination within our Spring. Your Scorpio piece of your personal Zodiac Pie will point to where you will most certainly feel a magnetic force that leads up to Tuesday morning, as energy completes itself here. Look to this area of life to properly focus on release and reflection within the waning period over the next two weeks until our next New Moon 01 June.

For the Collective
Be open to the request of our Full Moon in Scorpio, bringing forth an acute instinct and imagination for us all to embrace. We are called to look to matters concerning our determination, sensitivities, and power to investigate. Intense feelings and the capacity for reliving past experiences are strong, as well as psychic energies being especially prominent under this sign.

Be aware of stinging, self-tormenting, and defiant reactions. The urge to manipulate should be avoided. Desires will be powerful and channeling them with proper intention is essential for this regenerative force to optimally heal.

Lunar-O-Scope, Full Moon in Scorpio, 17 May 2011
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, the exact casting of the natal birth chart determines a closer perspective to how the current transits of the planets personally and specifically affect you.

Aries: It’s the perfect time to focus your attention and review your investments, taxes, shared/joint resources. Remember just to look, and then take forward motion here after 01 June. Other people’s sources of money may no longer be serving you. Some intense transformation can also take you in directions you’ve never known before. Intimacy wishes to be explored, as these deep changes regenerate you to let go of worn out habits that make room for excitement later.

Taurus: You are determined to share your feelings about those closest to you, personal or business related. A person from the past may surface, or one equally may be let go of as conclusions form here. You are reflective upon how you ultimately carry out your personal relations. Whatever doors have recently closed in your life, recognizing how they have transformed you will allow some new ones to show themselves all the easier.

Gemini: Your routine, personal habits, and health seek both sides of you to unite to bring on some regeneration. This requires you to stop moving, at least for a little while! The power you find in stillness brings forth all the answers that wish to come. Take a look at the way you are being of service to others, for there are equal improvements to be made. Time spent with pets is a source of healing and brings unity from the depths of your soul.

Cancer: That artistic or creative adventure you’ve been putting all your imagination into looks for a completion. Children may be on your mind, or require your focus now. Love affairs may also be contemplated, and you are anxious to figure out whether they are meant to become something you bring the curtain up or down upon. Take some time to be social and get out there in the spotlight, for there is applause you are also about to receive.

Leo: Home and family matters become quite heartfelt, and there are issues concerning them that will find a release now. Time spend cleaning in the home rejuvenates and makes room for new energies to emerge here later. Remember there is still balance you need to achieve where you recharge in the Lions’ lair. Play close attention to any déjà vu – under this especially psychic full moon you’ll be sure to receive an extra intense and powerful message.

Virgo: Time to re-organize your thinking Dear Virgin. This is truly no time to hone in on any tendency to doubt, and it is best you remain in positive thoughts. When you sense something deep, keep going there. Taking time in reflection to write, educate, or learn should delight your need to intellectualize, but be sure you don’t get stuck in logic. Something has been holding your thought process back for a long time that urges that regenerative energy to shine upon you now.

Libra: Your earning power and value system urge your investigation, as now is the time to re-evaluate your securities. A channel of earning power may see a conclusion. There is a possession you have you should consider parting with, as you no longer have to be dependant upon what you no longer need. Steer clear of impulsive purchases. Remember all of the current feelings surrounding a slow patient process in your life teaches you lessons you must learn to evolve.

Scorpio: The most reflective time of the year is upon you now, and it’s your spotlight Eagle! New approaches and letting go of what doesn’t fit into your passionate and magnetic world is the mystery that awaits your detective solution. There is a different way the world is about to see you- but these last moments of release desire your attention before that new mask can be put on. It is time to let go of a worn out impression you needlessly carry about the world.

Sagittarius: There are plenty of arrows shooting off in your subconscious realms that this Moons’ energy will take you Archer. You are sensing the workings of that inner world as it is time to go further within hidden matters that wish to be resolved now. There is a re-educational process involving spirituality you’ll unravel that surely will have you aiming higher than ever. Take special note of your dreams, as these equally share innate wisdom about your waking world.

Capricorn: Time to hold up on the work old Goat and labor with your friendships and organizations. You may find yourself reliving a many experiences within the roles you’ve played in your groups right now. There is an ultimate responsibility here that brings new life to you, so don’t miss the task at hand which requires a rebirth, as maybe some traditions in this area need revitalizing. When you receive that unexpected invitation, don’t use work as an excuse not to go.

Aquarius: Matters of work and toil are on the surface right now, and reflection asks you take a vacation from all of your inventions. Your purpose, mission, and reputation all await significant changes. A long term project here sees it’s fruition. There is an intense and passionate new life you are meant to bring to the career, so detach yourself from the stagnation that’s been holding you back from your own truth. Pondering your view on authority is also felt strongly.

Pisces: What belief no longer is powerful enough Dear Fishes? The waters are safe now to swim in that can bring on necessary changes here. Even if you only take a trip in the mind- you are urged to find some real higher education that releases a worn-out philosophy. Gravitation to your deepest psychic realms is especially rewarding. Now is not the time to let logic bring you to fear of the unknown, as it only makes perfect sense to allow the past to stay where it belongs.

REmembering BUDDHA

Happy New Year Buddha!

Since 1873, all East Asian countries celebrate Buddha’s birthday upon the 8th day within the 4th month of the current Chinese lunar based calendar -unless you live in Japan. This date, of course will vary from year to year, but more often than not, Buddha’s birth right is honored under the sun sign of Taurus. 10 May 2011 marks the 8th day of the 4th month since we began the New Year of the Metal Rabbit, 3 February 2011.

While the actual year he was born in some 2500 years ago remains uncertain, he was in fact born to the name Siddhartha Gautama, as a Prince. It is interesting to note Siddhartha carries the meaning “he who achieves his aim.”

With a pure 5 Name Expression from Siddhartha Gautama, it is no wonder this Prince has had the historical affect upon the masses that continues on through this very day. Name Expressions denote our career and public life energy, and when the planet Mercury watches over this, it is granted that the natives’ communication and movement will occur amongst the masses because of it.

Before he became the Master Number 22 Buddha Name Expression, and was recognized as “the enlightened one,” it is surely seen from his birth name Lexigrams (the poetic phrasing of anagrams from a name that tell the natives tale), the life he was destined to lead. Perhaps it is just another one of those “coincidences,” but how uncanny that we can clearly see -amongst other apparent truths within his birth name- the sun sign that seems to best describe the innate virtue of patience Buddha’s nature-loving soul so kindly left for us all to embrace.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE


NEW Moon in Taurus

3 May 2:51am EDT


Continuing to ground our core…



Moon transits Taurus

2 May, 1:58am EDT til 4 May at 1:09pm EDT

Once again, our Moon is in sync with the initiations of our Sun! A NEW Moon in Taurus brings forth deep, intuitive, and sensuous feelings as our Lunar Light takes a stance with The Bull.


Opportunity is knocking at the collective’s door at this time of the month when our emotions become anew. When our New Moon embarks in the practical and patient energies of Taurus -the sign that consciously aims for security- we are now ready to really take on an enduring and resourceful spirit. Earth is Taurus’s elemental influence, so look to this passage to allow feelings to take root, and “fix” into a grounding force.


Taurus energy must beware of dogged, materialistic, lethargic, and obstinate behaviors that may arise. When any possessive energies are around, it is easy to gravitate to unimaginative and reactionary tendencies. While a strong sense of values and patience marks any Taurus passage, the cultivation of enterprise, adaptability, and vision are equally wise to adhere to.


New Moon, 3 May, 2:51am EDT, 12 degrees Taurus

Be sure to check your Taurus House 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 on 17 May are bound to reap a rich harvest further down the road.


Jupiter enters Taurus 4 June

What is even more Zodiac “good news” is right after our next New Moon in June within Gemini, jovial Jupiter enters Taurus for the next year. Certainly the new beginnings you see from 3 May’s initiations will be furthered by The Optimist as he journeys with The Bull.


Mercury’s Shadow remains through 8 May

Our recent Mercury Retrograde passage in Aries is still seeing plenty of re-workings unfold in this area of the life that may have seen their upsets over 30 March – 23 April. As the Moon will gather once again in the light, the Universe is granted the optimal energy to continue to smooth out any wrinkles Mercury may have caused under the Shadow Period. 30 March, our Messenger Mercury began his “backwards” phase at 24 degrees Aries. On 8 May, he crosses back over this very same degree moving forward once more, as the Shadow concludes.


LUNAR-O-SCOPE, NEW Moon in Taurus 2011

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 the full mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that truly indicates how the current planetary energies are uniquely affecting you.


Aries: There is a direction you’ll be in the mood to lead yourself to that brings on a renewed sense of values while taking stock of your personal possessions. How you earn your dollars may find a new channel to flow from, which will be backed up by Jupiter’s good fortune for the next year once June rolls along. Be cautious about making those impulsive purchases- you are best choosing ones that serve a practical purpose to ground your fire a bit. Save for rainy days.


Taurus: It’s a solid month Dear Bull to try on some new approaches. Be ready for exciting and stirring feelings that will uproot those first impressions. We know you like slower changes, yet, you are likely not to resist this new energy, as Jupiter is soon to bless you with optimism that will further what begins now. Take time to focus upon you, as this is the perfect time to re-activate the self. The world is anxious to see the completion of new mask that is ready to be unveiled.


Gemini: Time to logically access those inner places and spend some time in solitude. The spiritual, subconscious realms, and the psychological make-ups of life call to you to really get away from your chatty self, so don’t be in a disconnect. There is such value in the inner security you’ll discover, and with that cleverness you innately have, it’ll be something you’ll carry in your communications for a long time to come. Dreams especially are able to cast light into the future.


Cancer: There are new friendships you are meant to move forward with Dear Crab, and these contacts become more blessed when Jupiter joins up here in June. If there is a group or cause you’ve been thinking about joining, don’t remain in your shell, the time is now to allow an original energy to flow here. Accept that possible unexpected invitation to socialize, for you’ll gain a renewed sense of patience, contentment, and familiarity from attending.


Leo: There is a definite harvest, stability, and reward ready to bestow itself upon your career and public life. Once Jupiter begins toiling here in June: are you ultimately ready to take on another piece of the forest oh kingly Lion? Equally, this is a fantastic time to promote or start a new business, or, expect a nice recognition if you’ve done your homework already to receive it. Consider a new view on authority that you haven’t been responsible to up till now.


Virgo: Inspiration is fueling where you’ve been reflecting upon your philosophies since Taurus began. Thinking about a trip Virgin? This is a prime time to plan one, take one, or find ways to broaden your view of the world at large. There is wonderful opportunity to keep igniting your urges to expand, along with educational pursuits that are meant to serve you for the long-term. Don’t doubt these new beliefs, for you’ll take them further when Jupiter shows up here in June.


Libra: Now is not the time to be wishy-washy concerning your securities and investments, but take the lead and come to decisions about any changes in these areas. Other people’s money can be of assistance to you now. The doors to ultimate transformations will unravel further with Jupiter’s aide after June, allowing you to feel a rebirth like never before. Be even friendlier to those sexy feelings that will be stirring in the air- just be patient when taking action!


Scorpio: Your partnerships: romantic, business, or otherwise are where you feel passionate right now. You’ll find the people you continue to connect with over this waxing period are of special importance to your future endeavors, and even more so once Jupiter arrives in June. You’ll find wisdom and diplomacy to engage in forward motion, making practical plans within your one on one relationships. Any legalities that may undergo here, should be peaceful and prosperous ones.


Sagittarius: Aim your arrows towards your health Dear Archer, for this Lunar light will have you feeling the time is now to bring on the improvement! How you serve others also sees its’ process of reworking itself, and a forward flow will unleash. Try on some new routine and habits. If you are thinking about a new pet, there’s someone out there just waiting for your kindness and generosity to find them. Your ruling planet Jupiter takes it all to the next level once June arrives.


Capricorn: While you always enjoy the ambitious pursuit, it is your creative nature that now desires your full attention Old Goat, and will even more so in June with Jupiter’s help. There is enthusiasm watching over your current project. Playful feelings surround you, especially loving any contacts with children. “Brain children” or your offspring equally captivate your attention now. A new love affair may perfectly align if you stop working to discover it upon your stage.


Aquarius: Re-inventions wish to find you in the home Water Bearer. There will be plenty more to think about that brings further improvement to this area of the life once June comes along, as Jupiter expands and blesses you with a little ease and fortune. Family relations run smooth and welcome your innovative ideas for change. While you already possess a prophetic nature, be on the look-out for those déjà vu experiences, as their messages hold importance to you now.

Pisces: There are fresh waters your mentality and thinking are ready to swim in Dear Fishes. Your mental capacity is ready to absorb like a sponge, and will need to be wrung out often to soak up more after Jupiter graces this area of the life in June. Plan that short trip you’ve wanted to go on. Enjoy this new direction your intuitive mind takes, as it’s meant to show a revelation that strongly roots in your life now. One word of advice: it takes patience to watch things grow.

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.

STILLNESS

I LET IN a SILENT LISTEN
I SIT STILL IN IT: I LET IN LESS LIES, LESS SINS
I ENLIST IN SILENT TIES
LIES LET IN ILLNESS, LET IN SINS
LIES SELL SINS IN ILLS
I SIT IN TEN: SENT IN a SILENT LISTEN
I LET IN LITE, I SIT IN LITE TIES
I SIT IN A LITE NEST: LESS LIES, LESS SINS
IN a SILENT LISTEN I STILL IN LITE
IN NITE, I LET IN SILENT TIES IN
I TELL LIES, TELL SINS: LISTEN I LET IN LITE TIES I SIT IN

Get READY for a true journey of the wonders of words! Chapter One opens ‘It’s All in the Name’ to take the reader on a magical trip that opens the mind to ponder the very power of our English language through the mysteries surrounding Lexigrams.

 

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.

Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

ModernMan.MartinLutherKingJr

As we take pause to remember in 2026, ninety-seven years ago in 1929, Dr. King was born upon January 15th. His initiation to earth instilled his heart to be naturally guided by the accountable leadership sun sign of Capricorn, coupled by the 15’s Karmic Path known as The Magician.

Let’s dive in further of how we can distinctly see the numerological and lexigram conscious connectivity that undeniably energetically worked and channeled through Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s life experience.

Originally named Michael Luther King, he came down to 28 Lifepath, with the Chaldean Karmic Mystery of The Trusting Lamb. As one walks along a 28 lifepath, there are incredible achievements and responsibility given to the person. However, the 28 asks that careful planning be adhered to secure what one has gained. One is highly advised to be watchful of trusting the wrong people, as intense resistance can occur in career or business matters over the entire course of the life.

The singular influence of Dr. King’s 28 lifepath is the 1, The Initiator, and he adhered to this kind of energy along his short yet extremely worthwhile journey. There is no doubt it would be a sadder world to live in today had Dr. King not started the awareness and movement that he did. The benevolent qualities of this 1 Lifepath blended well with the leadership of his Capricorn sun sign.

Dr. King was practical, grounded, chock full of wisdom and innately understood the concept of hard work- all attributes of a steadfast Goat. Also blending equally well was his Karmic Path of the 15. Numerically known by the Chaldeans as The Magician, this influence colored his personality and character with an undeniable charisma in public speaking. Venus influences the singular 6 here, indicating a soul that is driven by love, compassion and is urged to bring harmony to the human heart.

“An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.” ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

Looking to name numerology, each of the letters in our alphabet vibrates to a numerical energy. This equally telling form of analysis explores the sum of the letters contained within our names, lending insight to our expression and career path.

All of Dr. King’s name changes are riddled with the uncanny 4/8 phenomena, as their singular energies are known to cause sacrifice and victimization when combined. 

The Chaldean Karmic Mysteries of the compound numbers for each of his names display the very lessons he was to adhere to. Even in Dr. King’s final days, the numerical cycles he was experiencing tie into the continual mystery of the energies of the 4 and the 8.

His original birth name, MICHAEL LUTHER KING, vibrates to the 40=4.

MICHAEL, vibrates to the 22, Submission -Caution a Master Number reducing to 4.

His first name of MICHAEL was changed to MARTIN at the age of 6.

MARTIN, alone vibrates to the 17=8, and is coined the The Star of the Magi, and is the number of immortality, denoting the person’s name will live on long after they pass on.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, vibrates to a 26=8, granting one the immense ability to help others yet indicates to watch for troublesome partnerships in the life.

DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR., vibrates to the 35=8, and carries the same meaning as the 26, that the Chaldeans deeply understood to mean Partnerships. “This compound number vibrates, in a strange way, to a unique kind of power, based on compassion and unselfishness, with the ability to help others, but not always the Self. 35 is full of contradictions. If 35 is the Expression of the name, it might be best to change the name to a more fortunate influence.”

Had Dr. King utilized the analysis of Numerology, we’ll never know now whether it would have possibly eased his path or more importantly saved his life. Without a doubt, there where plenty of distrusting people partnered with Dr. King that resulted in his numerous arrests and assassination becoming an unfortunate reality, while his true intention was to unselfishly help others.


“A man who won’t die for something is not fit to live.” ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

Over the years Dr. King’s selfless efforts saw him in and out of jail, yet this never deterred him. This need Dr. King so obviously possessed to bring his message to humanity saw him in 1963, within a 26/8 Personal Year of ultimate reward, recognition and gain, when he was named the ‘Man of the Year’ by Time magazine, and became known to the entire world as the valiant leader of American Blacks. Previous to this he had already delivered his infamous ‘I Have A Dream’ speech for the March on Washington.

The year to follow in 1964 concluded a 9 year cycle for Dr. King from his new beginnings in 1956. (all soul’s continuously spin in 9 year spans of time, each year denoting what we are to see on the stage of our life.) In a 27/9 Personal Year of universal fame and celebrity, Dr. King was the youngest person ever to receive the Nobel Peace Prize at the ripe age of 35. He immediately at that time returned his prize money to continue to aide in the Civil Right Movement.

“I am not interested in power for power’s sake, but I’m interested in power that is moral, that is right and that is good.” ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

1968 was Dr. King’s last Personal Year of the 31/4, one of foundation and structure. In April, he was in the personal month of the 8, one where karmic ties are known to be settled. He was murdered on 4/4/1968, a Universal Day of the 32/5, where movement and permanent change is paramount. In this 8 personal month the 4th of April granted him nothing else but the very combination of the 4 and 8 itself, the 12: The Sacrifice – the Victim, as a 12/3 personal day. His 31/4 personal year cycle and his known name vibration of the 35=8 at the time only intensified how these energies contributed to his fatality.

“If physical death is the price that I must pay to free my white brothers and sisters from a permanent death of the spirit, then nothing can be more redemptive.” ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

There is no question Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. sacrificed his precious life by bring inspiration and change to humanity. With Saturn governing his Capricorn soul along with his 8 name vibrations, he showered us with lessons to be learned, while the minor expression of his first name left his eternal mark upon history. Dr. King’s The Magician karmic path did not fail him as he forever remains famed with compassionately addressing issues with the intention to bring balance to humanity’s differences.

“I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.” ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

As always we conclude by looking to the Lexigrams of Dr. King’s birth name and its’ changes. The mysteries that lie within this uncanny art form lend us the final insight into ‘It’s all in the Name’ the story to be told of his short yet incredibly meaningful 39 years. Let’s Spell Out The Truth…..
