 August 2006

Here is a newsletter that made me change directions in the middle.  That is why it is a bit late.  I was looking at upcoming aspects and some other indicators like the Mayan New Year and the meaning of Lamas ( August 2nd a cross quarter day).  And one of those little whisperings began to come to me.  It was time to start really working on manifesting again.

Now I've done this before and had remarkable results.  But in the last few years the energy felt like more pulling in and healing.  I am ready to do some creating now, and I thought I would bring you all along.  

I'll still show you what is happening in the stars.  But save this information because it won't always be available for free.

Now, does this work?  I'll give you a few examples.  

I was taking a course in using these techniques back in the 80's.  At the same time I had a friend who was a financial sales person.  She was just beginning and busily studying for certification tests.  I mentioned the course I was taking and she began asking me questions about it.

It turned out that it was almost an identical to a course that she was required to take to work for her company.  Her company, not a new agey place at all, let her know that this course was as important to them for her success as her certification and licensing courses.

Last I heard from her, she had bought a big house in a pricey section of town and was taking vacations in the Islands.

Actor Jim Carrey was living in his car in Los Angeles and he wrote himself a check for a million dollars dated five years later.  Five years later he was signing movie contracts worth millions.

My personal experience had to do with visualizing a house in the islands, taking a ride along the coast and having lunch with a girlfriend that consisted of an avocado stuffed with shrimp salad.  Three years later when I was eating that shrimp salad in the Bahamas, I recalled the visualization and was totally amazed at how exact it was.

So I have decided to do it again.  And to do it completely.  So I have been doing a lot of research and I am going to share what I have learned with all of you.  The first exercise is in this newsletter.  The rest will not come monthly but as I write them...probably every week or so.  Look for them in your mail, save them. 

If this is not something you can start now, you will want to get back to them at some point.  I also hope that as you do these things, you join up with my yahoo group where we can discuss our progress and share our experiences.

First, here is the astrology that inspired this decision:

 

 

Saturn Opposes Neptune

Late August until next June!  

They are predicting all kinds of awful things from this time.  And the truth is that a lot of this aspect will depend on our perceptions.  Saturn can have a heavy handed way of imposing order and boundaries.  Those things are necessary to us, but Saturn is in Leo and can try to do this with too much enthusiasm.  Saturn can be the friend of tyrants and it can bring them down.  The same order it might allow them to impose, it can turn and impose on them, showing them all the limitations of their choices and boxing them in.

Neptune couldn't be different from Saturn.  Neptune is boundless.  Neptune's job is to transform your life in terms of ideals and spiritual values.  It is the place of dreams and extreme creativity when it is at its best, at its worst, it can be drugs and addiction from trying to find that spiritual place by taking shortcuts.  When we are having a Neptune contact, it is hard to put your finger on what the energy is, but you can feel something powerful happening.  Just what that energy is will manifest and become clear after the passage.

At its best this passage can give structure to dreams.  At its worst,  you can lose your way completely.  So it is important to stay focused.  Stay focused on purpose, on the life you mean to create.  Remember Spirit with Neptune in the mix and give it form with Saturn energy.  Be sure what dreams you want to realize and give them your complete structure.  Then release them to the Universe to bring into being.

You may see the news around you seem to be spinning out of control.  Don't let that color your personal aspirations.  Negative thoughts right now can manifest as quickly as the positive ones that you would like to see realized.  And those leaders who have been working in the negative will see those results in the next months.

This aspect begins at the end of this month with an exact opposition.  But as in many outer planets aspects with their retrogrades, it will not be finished until the middle of next year.  So this is not a single event but a period of time in which these things will show up.

This is no time to worry, you can easily manifest your worries.  This is a time to create the life you want and put it into your future so it is there when you arrive.  Visualize, dream create, this is the time for that.

The things you dwell upon are the things you manifest.  So you must reject the negative.  Do not allow it to manifest into your life.  Especially now when the opportunity is there to change your reality into what you want it to be.  Think about your real soul's purpose, think about how you want that to manifest,  and work toward making it become your life.  

In a personal chart with Saturn in a major opposition, your own planets will be critical.  Neptune is at 19 degrees of Aquarius, Saturn is moving to 19 Leo quickly.  So look for a 19 degree aspect in Fixed signs to see how it might affect your personal issues.  In Air and Fire signs you will still find some issues, but they should be gentler.

The potential power in one's personal life of this aspect is very strong.  The dangers are getting caught up in group thinking and negative expectations.  It will require focus but it can bring on the life you have always wanted.

 On the 9th just before the full Moon the Moon will be conjuncting (exactly in the degree of) Neptune.  On the 12th the Sun, personal energy, is going to be entering the opposition, beginning to activate Neptune in your life.     As the aspect is moving toward the first exact meeting of these two powerful planets, on the 31st, it is the time to create what you intend.  By the end of this month it will be already coming into its potential in the Universe.

New Moon is for Beginnings

New Moon at 1 degree Virgo, on Wednesday August 23rd is a good day to begin to focus on the future you want to create.  a little ceremony would be appropriate at this time to begin to create the reality in which you want to live.  A few days before the New Moon, it would be a good thing to be sure that your energy is clear by doing a chakra clearing. Prepare yourself for some really effective creativity and magic.

Virgo loves ceremony, Moon in Virgo is the very energy of the power of ceremony.  At 1 degree Virgo this will be an especially strong New Moon;  It is wonderful for beginning the work of ceremony and manifesting.  Earth signs are the perfect place for manifestation.

Uranus Trines Jupiter

Here is another powerful confluence of Outer Planet Energy with Social Planet energy, and it is going on at the same time.  This energy can be very lucky, but you need to allow things to change at this point.  With Uranus, things won't stay the same, but with Jupiter, things are set up to get bigger and better.  This happens at 13 degrees in Water signs, so a planet at this at degree will help to activate this energy in your life.

This is generally considered to be a lucky transit, it has been very close to exact for some time as Jupiter was retrograde and now that it is direct it will hit this point exactly at 13 degrees on August 29.  As it hits exactly, the Moon is directly on Jupiter in Scorpio.

There is a lot of potential to this time at the end of August.  If your energy is clear and your purpose is set, you could find the energy available to make the move from a life you are just living in to one you create at this time.  Don't let this time pass you by.

You will hear all kinds of negatives from some astrologers whose main purpose is to tell you what to look out for that might be difficult.  This is not the time to close up around fear.  That will stop you from taking advantage of this time.

It is true that people whose energy is negative aggressive, worrying or fearful can experience the outer planets energies with real negative consequences.  So don't go there.  

You may see the world scene going through some upheavals at this time.  These are needed before transformation of the energies they have held so long can take place.  Don't let it color your personal energies.

Mars Opposes Uranus

On the 14th Mars opposes Uranus.  Mars/Uranus aspects, especially the hard aspects (conjunction, square and opposition) can be quite crazy.  Mars is direct energy and Uranus is sudden change, so you can see how, when they get together, they can magnify the effects of the other.  I find that this often means accidents, moving too fast, being too aggressive.  So try to watch it toward mid month when this aspect is in your chart. It is a time to be careful, or failing that making sure you are pointing all that energy at the right things.

But if you are actively making changes in your life, it will help you do it rather quickly.

Next Month...

Jupiter squares Neptune next month...more then, but these amazing aspects make it even more of an open door at this time to begin these changes.  There are boosts along the way that really can cut through a lot of the ca-ca you may have been carrying along until now.  You can go zooming into your new life if you just begin at this time.

Because of the extent of this energy at this time, I am going to be writing this newsletter a bit more often in the next month.  I am going to deal with exactly how to do these things, to put them into place and create the life you want.   You can start now by deciding how you want your life to be.  And stay tuned.  By the way I am ready to do this too, I'll be working along with  you.  I'll dig out all of the metaphysical techniques that are there to do the job for us.  I've been in my cocoon too long now, I'm done.  Its is time to move into my new life.  I hope you'll all use this information to move on into your own.  Begin to create NOW.

Right Now

The first step in the process.
Releasing attachments

Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.
~~Paul Boese

Because manifesting only works from positive expectations, the place to begin is to find and release your negative expectations.  Now if you are very young, this is not much of a problem.  That's why young people so often do what they expect to do.  But as life begins to take its toll, these expectations can pile up.

So the first step toward getting to the positive is to begin to release the negative beliefs that are holding us back.  

We all walk through life gathering emotional baggage.  Don’t blame yourself, don’t blame him, and don’t blame your mama. Blame is about the most counter productive thing you can do in any circumstances.  It makes you a victim. 

The way to stop being a victim is to take total responsibility for your own life.

The single exception I will grant to this principle is for abused children.  Children are not capable of taking responsibility for their own lives and thus are seriously wronged when the adults they depend upon become their abusers.

 But at some point, even these issues need to be released.

Is it painful?  For awhile, you have to touch the pain to heal it properly.  But most abused adults would have the effects of the abuse surgically removed in a minute, if it were possible.  Therapy is much less of an ordeal than that.

And when your work is done your old issues are healed or you have found ways to deal with them.  So, as an adult you may still choose not to be a victim any longer.

When we are dealing with karma, we need to know that each of these people, passing through our lives is a gift and a lesson.  Sometimes they are carefully disguised and appear to be very bad people.  But as we are adults now, they only do what we allow them to do.  Once we learn the lesson, we do not need to allow the old energies to guide us any longer.

Until the lesson is learned and the experience is released, we will often find the same lesson appearing in different clothes over and over again.  This is why it is important to understand what the past has brought us in relationships and to forgive them (because they were teachers) and to release them (because we no longer need that lesson.)

Unless the energy has been cleared and released, most of us have a fair amount of baggage. This has manifested as:

·        Emotional disappointments

·        Abandonment issues

·        A series of bad relationships

·        Deeply held negative beliefs

There are many techniques that will allow us to let go once and for all of that kind of emotional baggage. 

The greatest of these is forgiveness. 

It is the best starting point for changing our expectations.  We do not forgive to release the other party of their responsibility.  We forgive to release ourselves of the burden of sadness or anger or hatred.  All of these emotions are too heavy to bear for your whole life. 

Forgiving helps you to release them and be rid of them once and for all.

Because there is always a bit of guilt related to these feelings, it is best to forgive yourself twice for every time you forgive someone else. 

And don't neglect to do a lot of forgiving yourself.  At every stage, we begin to see more and more where we made mistakes or were led astray.  Why didn't we know better?  Maybe we did know better and followed along anyway.  These are the kinds of things we need to release and forgive ourselves for.

You may have to do this more than once.  You need to take some time with it.  Here is the best forgiveness meditation I have found:

Begin by finding a place where you can be alone and not interrupted.  Take ten cleansing breaths. (Breathe in very deeply and release the breath slowly)  As you release the breaths feel yourself becoming more and more relaxed.  Let the exhaling breaths release any tension you are holding in your body. 

From this relaxed position, picture yourself in strength in a safe, beautiful place. One by one see all the people you love and who have loved you, join you in a big circle.  They are all around you supporting you with unconditional love.  Watch them come in and greet them one by one.  Feel the love you have had for them and the love they are giving you now.

Let go of any old issues with these people and know that they are there because they love you and want to help you in this time of growth.

Now, picture the one who needs forgiveness walking into that circle of love and holding a hand out to you.  Picture the person asking you to forgive him or her. 

Feel the feelings that come over you now.  You understand how you have been hurt.  

But you also see that the other person was only being what he or she knew to be.  In this circle of love, it is easy to understand and to forgive.  You give your forgiveness and watch as the energy of this person slowly fades from the circle and releases itself.  You are left surrounded by friends and loved ones.

Let yourself feel the relief of releasing all of the old hurt and anger … feel the old emotions dissipate.  Let yourself feel the love that the universe and your circle of love within it provide to you every day. 

In that spirit, holding this openness to love, take three cleansing breaths and slowly find yourself back in the present time feeling lighter and happier than you have been in a long time.

 

This will leave you feeling lighter and refreshed.  But you can expect that it only gets the first level, the first time.  Do not be discouraged, as other issues or people pop up after this just continue to do this exercise until they are released.

If you have more life experience, you can expect that once the first layers release, the lower levels pop up.  Just keep releasing.  After awhile, it will be easy and much faster.  This doesn't take long to do, but you need to do it to begin.

Even if you don't go on into the manifesting work, this can do you a  world of good by itself.  Letting go of these things can literally make you feel lighter and more in control of your life.

Keep your eye on your mail, there is more coming soon.

Critical Birthdays
If you were born during the following periods:

Saturn over Pluto
7/43 - 7/54
Saturn is moving quickly over an area where Pluto moved slowly
so a lot of people will be affected this year

Saturn returns
6/47-7/48, 7/76-9/77

If you are in any of these groups, life is complicated now and you need a reading. It would help you sort things out and see the beginning the middle and the end of the crisis time. You can also get an idea of where in your life it will happen. And find strategies to work with the energy.

Pluto Squares 
10/68-4/69
8/690-011-69
2/70-9-70
24-26 Sagittarius
and Late May - Early June 71 (26)

 

Pluto over Sun
December 15-18

These are points that are generally happening within that group and are easy to find.

Other times, equally as deep and significant, show only in individual charts. 

Pluto going over a Personal Planet is at least as intense as it is in aspect to an outer Planet. But these things only show up in individual charts. It is the same with any planet with a long transit...generally Saturn or beyond.

If your life is in drastic change or is spinning out of control, it is often an outer planet passage which has a beginning, a middle and an end. It would make these times easier to understand these things. There are strategies for dealing with these times and I can help you.
