1st May 2015 Mercury moves into Gemini. 19th May Mercury turns retrograde

 

Hi everyone, gumnut babies!

Well it’s been quite a time since that Aries New Moon on 19th April!
 
How many of you have been knocked over, flattened or knocked sideways by the recent extreme weather and sudden earth changes?
 
At these times we huddle together with ourselves and loved ones.
 

Extreme weather and earth changes:
With the concentration of planetary energies in Aries and Taurus we’ve been having quite a few extreme weather events around the world along with some major earth changes.  I refer in particular to the volcanic eruption in Chile and the earthquake in Nepal.
 
This past week or two we have had an escalation of earth changes and extreme weather events around the globe, so if you’ve been feeling the earth move beneath you and within you, then be assured you’re moving with those earth energies.
 
We don’t all feel these changes in the same way at the same time or across the board for everyone.  Our response depends on a variety of factors, planetary energies, natal chart and I also tend to believe we experience events in other parts of the world according to our own ‘earth history’, ancestral/past life memories.
 
Flattened by the earth changes, weather events?
I don't know about many others but I do know a black cloud of exhaustion came over along with this earthquake in Nepal. Absolutely laid out and barely able to keep my eyes open.  This had come on the heels of some dramatic storms and flooding on the east coast of Australia.  I know this has happened across the world at different times but when it is close to us, of course we’re more likely to be impacted.  
 As I live west of Sydney on the Blue Mountains, I was not as affected as others.  However I know we’ve all had a share of these extreme weather events in our local areas, cities and nations.  Whether the extreme snow in USA, Europe and the UK or the floods, winds and rains across continents which do not usually experience such extremes. 

This week in Nepal, the earth moved!   
From Sydney Morning Herald this week:
"A massive block of Earth's crust, roughly 75 miles long (120km) and 37 miles (60km) wide, lurched 10 feet (3m) to the south Saturday over the course of 30 seconds. Riding atop this block of the planet was the capital of Nepal – Kathmandu – and millions of Nepalese."
That's the description of Saturday's earthquake from University of Colorado geologist Roger Bilham, a world-renowned expert on Himalayan earthquakes. The 7.8-magnitude earthquake that flattened historic buildings in Kathmandu and has taken more than a thousand lives is the latest release of built-up strain from the collision of two of Earth's tectonic plates.http://www.smh.com.au/…/kathmandu-shifts-three-metres-in-30…

Thoughts, prayers and light to all affected by the quake, volcanoes, extreme weather events, war, poverty, physical, emotional, mental and spiritual challenge.

We are all earth dwellers:  
  When Mother Earth rolls over, we all roll  over!
Taurus is an earth sign ruled by Venus and encapsulates the heart of Mother Earth, her core being.  At the moment, we’re all working with and within Mother Earth, whether we know it or not, believe it or not. We are inextricably woven into the tapestry of her body. 
 
 
 
 
1st May:    
Mercury moves into Gemini at 11.59 am AEST
...we have lift off! 
until 8th July
Mercury the messenger, the quicksilver energy is home! 
Mercury is the ruler of Gemini so he’s come home for an extended stay with a retrograde journey of 3 weeks in the middle of this stretch.
 
Mental as anything:  
The mind is flying to the heights!
Let’s trust there’s not too much hot air and cluttered dialogue.  The plus of this energy is a clearing of the mind and a million and one ideas and possibilities.
 
Open your mind and let the ideas fly:
The challenge with this energy is floating ideas and finding difficulty grounding them in physical reality.  Nevertheless, this is the energy here and now, letting us have our head!  Go with it!
 
Open to receive the undiscovered gems:    Ideas, solutions, new vistas!
Amongst the multitude of ideas and possibilities, the grab bag of magical choices, we’re likely to find some undiscovered gems which have been hidden away.
 
Curious Mind:  
How much can you learn and discover in the next 2 months?
There is no stone unturned with Gemini curiosity.  Gemini is the sign of curiosity and with Mercury here, we’re excited by new prospects and new solutions to old problems.  Let the winds of change blow into the mind and clear the old cluttered thinking that’s had us bogged down in the marshland.
 
Communication is centre stage:  
How many people can I connect with in 2 months?  
Variety is the spice of life! 
Mercury likes speed and movement and in Gemini, is the ultimate networker, business negotiator and communicator.  Just remember to take it slowly for the sake of any who are having trouble keeping up with you. Gemini energy urges us to learn about ourselves and our world by connecting and communicating with others.  It’s like an information gathering exercise, data collection, research which will help us find ourselves and our place in the world.  Make the most of this time to gather, connect and float the ideas.
 
 
 
 
Socialising with like minded others:    Creative minds coming together!
This is likely to bring spontaneity and a celebratory feel as we bounce ideas off trusted people in our world.  Trusted?  That means those who are your personal cheer squad, your supporters, those who are on the same wavelength and spiritually aligned with you.

Lines are now open.  Make the most of this time!


 
Be a butterfly:    Twosomes are good!  
Friends, partners, family!  Dualities are reconciled if we allow!
Gemini is symbolised by the butterfly flitting from flower to flower gathering the pollen, delivering the pollen, fertilising the plants of the earth.  Follow the butterfly process this next month or two.  That doesn’t mean we won’t get anything done.  It’s more likely to bring back some joy, excitement and stimulation into our lives.  Just go with it.
 
 
Business and commercial enterprises benefit: 
If establishing, starting new ventures or projects, best to get moving on them before Mercury retrogrades on 19th May.  Ironically, 19th May is a New Moon in Taurus which is great for establishing enterprises in physical reality.  Put in the groundwork in now and ironing out the creases will work well during the Mercury retrograde period. 
 
 
19th May:    Mercury retrograde in Gemini 
at 13 degrees 09 Gemini
Uh oh! Lift off delayed????
until 12th June

19th May to 12th June:    Mercury retrograde in Gemini
Just a heads up that we’re heading towards a Mercury retrograde period of 3 weeks starting 19th May. We’re coming into what’s called ‘shadow retrograde’ energy in the next few days, so the slow down and pull back is happening.
 
Are we coming or going?  or both?  
Difficult to know when Mercury’s retrograde!
It might feel like all systems are go and then delays come in and hold us back from attaining goals or implementing plans. Patience and awareness is everything with Mercury retrograde periods.  Any apparent glitches must be viewed as necessary halts in our progress as NEW INFORMATION IS COMING IN!
 
Mercury retrograde:  Risk management!  
Refining the energies!
One of the greatest benefits of Mercury retrograde periods is the backwards and forwards with our thinking.  Our implementation of plans works like a cross checking of all the possibilities. 
 
Access to the ‘higher self’:  The inner journey calls! 
We just need to listen!
Retrograde Mercury often brings in new possibilities and better and improved ways of proceeding.  The inner journey gives us access to greater truth and consciousness.
 
Timing is everything:   
"If you're gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right” – ‘The Gambler’
Mercury retrograde periods demand our attention to timing, ‘divine’ timing.  That means maintaining awareness of what doors are opening, what avenues are closing, what events are holding us back, delaying us.  It’s always for good reason when we are delayed from proceeding, usually because something ‘better’ as in more suitable, aligned with us is just ahead.  Patience and awareness is everything!
 
I’ll be putting in a reminder with more details with the New Moon in Taurus update for 19th May.

Take good of yourselves during the turbulence of the earth shifts and do whatever it takes to bring yourself, bodies, minds, hearts and spirits through the loop.
 
As always, love and blessings to us all as we travel the high road to greater fulfilment, light and love in our lives!

My good intentions of posting more regularly seem to have been once again delayed as I need to attend to the body first.  The intention remains firm and trust after these challenges of the past week or two, I'll get back on track.

23rd April 2015 Look to Sirius

Photo of Sirius  and B from Hubble Telescope


The following message is Lauren Gorgo's latest message with some reflection of the eclipse energies and some insights for the upcoming energies for the next month.


The Full Report which can be purchased at a very reasonable cost, refers to the

strengthening of the connection with Sirius and the influx of golden light shifting

us into physical operational mode in the world as our personal blueprint is 

revealed to those who can hold the self-love and operate from that point. 


Love and blessings in recovery from a few days R & R on the sofa!

Helen


From Lauren Gorgo

Time to reBuild: accessing your blueprint

reporticon-final
We have officially returned from our first eclipse voyage of the year, and with our soul’s way more intact than when we embarked upon this substantial soul-retrieving odyssey in late March…all innocent and wide eyed 8O .
Regardless of where you find yourself at this moment, I am pretty certain that you are exiting in a very different state than you entered…even if you are not fully aware of it yet.  Realistically speaking, we are moving into a whole. new. human. experience. and so we all need a minute to get our bearings and reorient to new life…this birthing was a b-i-g-g-y.
It’s no secret that time has all but evaporated (along with the 4th dimension) and even tho, technically speaking, this was a truncated portal…2 as opposed to 3 eclipses in a row…these r-evolutionary crusades can feel like the lonnngest days of our lives. At this advanced stage of the ascension game eclipses are like being in a vacuum, mostly because we have become so sensitive to energy and how to parlay its influence into our personal expansion that we need very little in the external world to reflect our individual process…in fact, the outside world can serve to detract from it.
And while it can be challenging & frustrating to be so Self consumed, these periods always prove to be so valuable because they force enable us to go deeper than we are able to with our conscious mind focused on business as usual. The success of any eclipse passage is always contingent on our ability and readiness to deepen…to open to more of our authentic nature and those people/places/things that align with our full truth. Needless to say, these can be very rearranging times…both in our DNA and in our physical lives.
The outcome is such that the deeper we go (the more truth we have the courage to recover) the higher we are able to fly when we get to the other side.  And, according to the star folk…fly we must.  As of the recent new moon in Aries, a brand new accelerated cycle begins and we will now be supported to utilize the momentum before us to not only take flight, but to learn to balance our wings in the blowing winds of change.
Many of you reading this have consciously delivered the final parts of yourselves to the unity paradigm thru this recent passage.  Even if you are still trying to find your physical feet, the star-beings assert that our hearts & minds are absolutely attuned to unity, and the ripple effect of this emergence will continue to undulate for days, months, years to come.  
After weeks of frazzled unsettledness (unrest, uncertainty, unpredictability, anxiety, tension, etc.), swimming in super-charged Arian seas, we are now moving into a space of growing calm.  An anchoring in underway…we are grounding more deeply than ever into the core of our being where that once familiar feeling that all is well lives.  And not a minute too soon.
If you are already feeling this supportive space of centeredness, of neutral observation, know that this is the result of major defragmentation…of BEcoming whole again…the foundation and requirement for the the actualization and attainment of christ consciousness.  This governing energy is available to all those who have finished the course requirements from the univers-ity of cause and effect, passed all the polarity finals, and are readying to begin co-constructing the collective dream (divine blueprint) for new earth.
Last year close to this time we were (collectively) reaching the stage of evolution where we were able to more effortlessly emancipate ourselves from suffering.  Things didn’t get any easier, in fact, the opposite is likely true, but we had a multitude of divine feminine support to transcend our emotional attachment to hardship. This year we have an abundance of divine masculine support to transcend our physical attachments to hardship and create something entirely different out of our lives…out of the proverbial ashes of our past.
On the long road Home (return to Self) we have experienced death after death…rebirth after rebirth…graduated from level after level of attainment.  Every year for the last 15 we have been repetitively torn down so that we could rebuild on a lasting foundation of truth.  Each of us in our own way has left the flock in order to forge new human frontiers and actualize our deeply-felt potential. We faced our most paralyzing fears, integrated our darkest shadows, wholed our broken, untrusting hearts, let go in ways we didn’t know were possible…all in the name of surrendering to the greater plan guided by our higher Self…and mostly on what seemed like just “a hunch”.
We are all at different places on our path but one thing we can all agree on is that we are no where near the person we “thought” we were before 1999 when we entered The Galactic Cycle (according to the Mayan calendar)…the second to last underworld leading us to global enlightenment.
And while we have certainly achieved the impossible in terms of our inner-expansion, of reestablishing the divine feminine energy on this planet, very little has changed in the outer world to reflect the amount work we have put in…at least not to the extent of, or in equal measure to our toils and labors.  We have spent so much time purifying and transmuting that very little vitality has been available for building the physical structures that our world needs to embody this new energy…for those of us in the constant throes of genetic (trans)mutation, we just don’t have any tread left on our very worn tires.
In walks father God.
After the very powerful merging of sacred forces at the equinox…that which triggered the birth of our triality consciousness…the divine King is finally rejoining his sovereign Queen in order to rebuild a true partnership in co-creation.  Now, and with the support of the long-awaited return of our beloved & empowered sacred male, we can finally begin to resurrect our bodies and lives in order to manifest the physical structures in our worlds to match our true divine nature.
Where we have been mostly unable to get our greater visions off the ground and implement our divine dreams in the physical world, our (inner) male counterpart is beckoning…asking to assist and compliment us in more complete ways.  Where we have been unable to protect our precious vulnerability in the world and abundantly “provide” for ourselves, our inner warrior begs to rise and take command of the universal force to conspire to our success.
Where we have been unable to fuel our passions, structure our lives, create order out of chaos, we will gain more and more support to move from our long-suspended state of inertia to spontaneous, directed action in order to ground into form all the heartfelt/divine desire we cultivated while in the pregnant abyss of potential.
We are moving into a momentum-building phase where we will need the creative force of our empowered GOD nature to move us from the stillness/inaction of the VOID, of infinite possibilities, to the inspired actions that eventually accomplish our goals and ground our visions into purpose-filled achievements.
In many or most ways, we have been thru a very difficult 6 months (since the eclipses of last October followed by the 11:11 gateway) of relentless embodiment, but the galactics say that it is time now to declare ourselves…to bring our highest creative visions and ideas to earth and lay the framework in order to begin putting our BIG plans in play.
And here’s the best news: there is a divine dispensation being offered over the next several weeks..a leg-up, if you will…for those who are willing & prepared to step into their life’s mission at this time.
It’s time to rebuild.  Do you know your part in the divine plan? 
B-earthday

19th April 2015 New Moon in Aries

 
Art:  Vladamir Kush

Hi everyone!  

Here we are dancing in the Aries flames of the New Moon coming in!
 
What’s been happening:
We’re all fired and have maybe been imploding, exploding, trembling with emotion,  learning to swim through the Pisces ocean of emotion and then taken into the fiery flames of the Aries Sun and full moon in Libra karmic rebalancing.   
Where we’ve been:
Since the 20th March New Moon in Pisces solar eclipse:
Art:  Jaime Zollars

Travelling the labyrinth:
We have been travelling over the past lunar month in the light of the New Moon Pisces Solar eclipse on 20th March.  It seems so long ago with the past month packed with changeable, intense energies hurtling us through time and space.  We started in the great Piscean ocean filled to the gunnels with emotions surfacing from who knows where! 
 
Full Moon in Libra eclipse:  Karmic rebalancing and reckoning:

Then the planetary focus shifted to the Libran Full Moon eclipse with the fiery Aries Sun stirring up all manner of karmic release, reckoning and reconciliation.  

Acceptance has been the keynote of this time which is carrying us through to this New Moon in Aries.
 
 


In the past week:    
Venus squaring/challenging Saturn and Pluto slowing down!

Big healing energies:  In the past few days Saturn, Lord of Karma, ruler of the establishment, tradition, representing our authority in the material world, opposed/challenged Venus in Gemini.  Saturn's currently in Sagittarius.  Orcus, representing the higher mind was squaring off to both of them. calling us to lift above wounds and heartaches around self-worth, shame. blame, the critical voices in our psyche. 
 
Meanwhile, Pluto, the dark Lord of Transformation, is slowing right down, dragging us into the cave of death of the old ways and discovery of the rich treasure within us.  Pluto turning retrograde is taking us into the gold mine of the self.
 
We’ve been called to dig deep.  We're being rebirthed with the Aries New Moon on 19th, so the death and dying and clearance energies are deep, occurring as they are in the darkening of the moon.  As we're letting go, we're discovering a huge inner resource of our own divinity and loving who we are. 
 
We’re learning to trust, accept and surrender to the higher pathway, the new paradigm that challenges all our thinking.
 
 
17th April:    
Pluto stationed retrograde in Capricorn at 1.54 pm AEST at 15 degrees 33 Capricorn
until 25th September 
Retrograde time is an inner exploration, review and discovery of hidden, unrevealed aspects of ourselves and our lives.  Pluto, the multi talented investigator and problem finder!  Bringing unresolved issues to light! Pluto is the dark Lord of transformation, death and rebirth.  Guaranteed change!

Going underground, undercover:  Pluto the miner!
Pluto's calling us into the cave, the underground caverns offering the treasures of undiscovered aspects of the self. He'll be retrograde until 25th September, so plenty of time to dig deep and find your buried gems and seams of gold within your being.
Pluto is a planet of great power and potential for wealth, the spiritual wealth that once claimed carries us into the material world. As within, so without.  Pluto offers a mine of information, ruling the underworld, the buried treasures.

Pluto the plumber:    Repairs needed are brought to light!
Pluto is the plumber of the planets, ruling anything underground and prepared to take us in to repair any damage to our inner workings of the mind, body, heart, spirit.  Sometimes we have to excavate to find the broken pipes, the leakages, the rust. 

With Pluto on this inner journey in Capricorn, we're clearing out and purging a whole lot of tribal beliefs, behaviours and paradigms that are holding us back from fulfilment in our personal lives and in the public sphere.

Pluto the detective, the spy:  Our own private investigator!
How many of us are working towards building a new economic paradigm of living? We're not there yet but we continue to make inroads in our personal lives trying every possibility of breaking through the embedded patterns of power, money and privilege which have underpinned earth's history.  Pluto is our own personal spy and will expose the truth!

Dropping the burdens:
Letting go of the attachments to our history and the comfort zone of following the ways of the past, challenges us all. One little step can lead to breakthroughs as we find our true power in these coming months. 
If we’re carrying any heavy burdens of the system, the establishment, government, the status quo, then it’s time for all of that to fall away.  We’re repairing ‘our’ systems and in doing so, purifying ourselves, we help all ‘systems’ on earth.

 
This past week or so Pluto coming into focus:  
Pluto and its moon Charon from Nasa’s New Horizons spacecraft
 
 
 
Whenever any new information is revealed, discovered, explored astronomically, it carries significance for the astrological community.  This is because the new information represents an expansion of consciousness in astrological terms. Our world expands each time a new discovery is made.
 
In particular, the times when events occur and how they may relate to earth happenings and changes, is of primary interest to astrologers who seek to build meaning from the cosmos, how it behaves, interacts etc.
 
 
What’s coming in:
19th April:    New Moon in Aries at 4.56 am AEST at 28 degrees 25 Aries
 
Reborn, naked unto the day I was born:  Aries New Moon and Sun!
Out of the eclipse birth canal and into the New Moon in Aries! It’s a new day marking the end of and emergence from the past 4 weeks eclipse passage. We’ve been travelling unknown and uncertain territory, seemingly lost in time and space in a time tunnel of change.


 
Aries power:  I am! I accept, love and believe in all that I am!
The last degree of a sign is regarded as a culminating point, an opportunity to express the mastery of the sign’s energies which we have been learning to apply and developing not just in the past month, but in the past years, lifetime. 
 
Mastery in Aries:  Pure ‘I am’ energy!  Pure spirit!  No more masks!
We have been working on our sense of self in a deep and often challenging discovery process.  Masks, false pride and ego pretences have been ripped away so we can stand exposed in all our beautiful vulnerability.  We’re still working on this for the duration of our earthly lives.  It’s all about maintaining the commitment to exposing our true selves without conditioning’s overlays.  
This is true spiritual freedom!


 
The truth test:  Inner joy and talents released!
Art:  Danielle Branchaud

An ending and a beginning:
This New Moon is another big ending and completing of residue, unfinished business with the ongoing discovery and reclamation of the self. 
 
This New Moon is a beginning for the lunar month of Aries and a beginning for the lunar year as Aries is the first sign of the astrological calendar.
 
It marks an ending, a release from the past 4 weeks of eclipse energies. It feels like more than 4 weeks as we’ve had so much intense change.  Lots happening mostly inside as we were turned inside out.
 
A fresh start:    
It’s all about the self, the spirit of who you are!  

Make your choices and fire them up!
Now, it’s seed planting time!  We now have the fire of spirit, the firelighter Aries to ignite our true desires and to bring us the nourishment that comes from passionate expression of ourselves in the world. As the fire strips away the excesses, the unrelated energies, we come to a singleness of mind that will help us hone our focus and direction. 
 

Aries, the flame thrower is firing our spirit:  
Filled with plans and possibilities! 
The first week after the New Moon we may feel fired but not sure where to go first.  Just keep stripping away anything that is outside pure intention.  We’re clarifying our intentions in this first week, even though we’ve been doing an enormous amount of purification and clarification over the past weeks. 
 
On 22nd April Mercury, our mind energy meets with Mars, our body and our fiery drive where we’re likely to get a big uplift and reconnection of mind, spirit and body. They’re meeting in Taurus, so more support for grounding our plans and physical presence on earth.  I expect many things will fall into place with this connection.  In particular, our mind and body will be on the same page!

Freedom calls!  The Aries spirit calls!
We’re over the fence and heading for the hills of freedom!   

Courage and faith in ourselves is the key!
Our sheep minded mentality is being called out and released as the courage and self-faith of Aries takes us over fences into the pure unadulterated energy of our masculine Ram like energy.
 


Safe ground ahead:  Taurus Sun smiles on us!
Fortunately, the Taurus Sun coming in on 20th, the day after the New Moon, will help to ground some of the fire energy and to actually feel we’re safe enough to confidently take some steps out onto the earth. 
 
The Mars/Mercury meeting in Taurus on 22nd/23rd will add to this grounding of the New Moon energy which could have us all fired up with nowhere to go! 
 
 
From Lynda Hill’s Sabian Symbols:    http://sabiansymbols.typepad.com/ 

Sabian Symbol for the New Moon in Aries:  


The Sun and Moon are both sitting on this degree.




Aries 29 THE MUSIC OF THE SPHERES
This Symbol speaks of the beauty of music and harmony and it is particularly intuitive. It doesn't matter if things are going well or not, if you are in tune with the inner voice, this can show an inner accord with your path. Savor the lessons that come and know that everything happens in its own time and you’ll grow in wisdom. ‘The Music of the Spheres’ can show attuning to the messages of astrology, numerology, mathematics and science. Sing, tune into the planets, listen to music, dance and celebrate life. Voices bringing messages. Music, harmonies, chords, keys, octaves. Circadian rhythms. Days of the week. The planets speaking. The measuring and the passing of time.

The Caution: Inflating rational ideas to appear to be inspired thought. Delusion or enlightenment? Getting lost in abstractions. Loving only the sound of one’s own voice.
 
The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon at 29* Aries tells you how to go about it.  The Music of the Spheres.  This is a call to attune ourselves to the cosmic energies so we can find our purpose and our place in the cosmic order.  Whenever we reach a new level of self-awareness, our consciousness expands to take in new realms of possibilities and actions.  When we attune ourselves to cosmic laws, we let our energies be shaped by the archetypal patterns of life, infusing us with profound energies.  We end up living in harmony with the cosmos, with others and most importantly, with ourselves.
 
 
20th April:    Sun in Taurus at 7.41 pm AEST Stabilising, calming, grounding instabilities!
until 21st May

We made it back to earth!  We’ve been fire rockets aflame with energy which has been having difficulty coming to earth, being grounded in the material world. 
 
Perfect seed planting time:  
Taurus Sun under a New Moon!

The Aries New Moon energy has inflamed and ignited, clearing the spiritual blockages out of our being.  We’ve had the desire to do...something!  anything!  The problem has been waiting for the energies to settle so we can put those desires and passions into some solid framework which provides a sense of physical security and stability.
 
 

Grounding the fire:  Do what you love and...
The Taurus Sun is going to offer us the chance to settle the erratic and turbulent energies of the eclipse period.  Taurus is associated with growing new life in the earth.  You can imagine the metaphor related to this in our lives.
 
First steps in a new life on earth:  Put your best foot forward!
Taurus is a steady earth energy ruling values, self-worth, earning potential, gifts and talents with the governing planet Venus the planet of love. This is perfect follow up energy from the New Moon as we’re likely to feel a stabilising and a calmness which can help put things in perspective.  One step at a time!  That’s Taurus!
 
 
Keep clearing the old naysayers,  inner and outer:
We’ll be given the opportunity over the next month to access our true worth, our true values and a sense of worth and value in the world. The more we own who we are and be true to ourselves, the more we will find it reflected back.  It’s always been the way but now it’s especially powerful in these current energies so taking charge of your heart, mind, body and spirit working together as a team, will really pay off!
 


 
Taurus determination, persistence and commitment is on tap:  
I will to will thy will!
Taurus never gives up, can be so determined it can become stubbornness which is often given a bad rap.  However, providing we keep focussed on our inner truth and love for self and all we are, our pure divinity, this energy can work well for taking us forward on our divine pathway to fulfilment.

As always, love and blessings to us all as we proceed through the powerful gate of change with this New Moon in Aries, promising the desire and passion and offering a vehicle which is fire powered.  Even with our upcoming Mercury retrograde period coming in a couple of weeks, the fire will uphold us.  So hook yourself to the fire of spirit powered by the deep love and acceptance and celebration of your divinity, your divine fulfilment and pathway forward.

Now I pray that each and every being’s true nature be revealed, that we each see clearly our inherent truth and find liberation from the shackles of suffering and difficulty imposed by the limitations of our mind. –Chagdud Tulku
 
 
Postscript:  
I have been sending out these emails since 2007.  It was motivated by my desire to inform friends and family of what was happening in the cosmos.  I just felt ‘people need to know this stuff’.  From there, it just grew and grew with a mailing list to people I don’t know.  I know many people pass on this information.
 

As it has helped me to negotiate a challenging self-imposed journey since 2008, I know it has helped others.  We’re going through changes together. We’re going towards a greater fulfilment of our lives through an expression of ourselves in the world.
 
I started a webpage ‘blog’ in 2011, feeling the need to ‘put it out there’ to a wider audience.  It has been mainly the lunar and astrological updates.  I have now been nudged by the universe that I need to return to the world and my body is restoring amazingly. 
 
I have now started posting on this page on a daily, or more or less daily basis between New Moons and Full Moons. 
 
If you want to comment, I think you need to join Google.  Many people have wanted to make a donation to me.  I never wanted this to be a commercial enterprise because I feel everyone’s asking for money and I just wanted to give for free.  However, I have now set up with Paypal and you can make a donation through Paypal by entering my email address: helenbea@bigpond.com 
 
Please feel free to continue enjoying my contribution free of charge!  I love what I do here and that’s pretty wonderful!
 
Love and light to all
