Hi everyone!
It’s a Taurus Sun highlighting the beauty,
harmony, love and abundance of Mother Earth! We’re standing in the centre of
the World Tree luxuriating in the blessings of this time and place, whatever our
situation or circumstances.
The question we are asking ourselves at this time is where are we being
taken as we journey to the centre of our own personal earthly being. The journey
has a spontaneity about it which calls for absolute trust and surrender as we
are cradled in the arms of Mother Earth, the Taurus Sun.
The power of the 5 retrograde planets: Sorting the wheat from the
chaff!
The intensity of the 5 retrograde planets has certainly brought in the
sorting of energies, the wheat from the chaff. It really feels like there’s a
splitting of the ways between the 3rd and 5th dimension a crossroads of change
which is happening within our being as we are given the choice of the higher
path, the path of ease or grace or the old well worn path of hard work and
struggle.
Parting of the ways:
People, places, behaviours...old contracts
coming to a close!
On social media it seems to be visibly
manifesting in relation to reactions and responses to this intense energy. Those
who are open and ready to embrace the power that comes from within, the power of
the divine feminine with all its creative potential for manifestation are
welcoming this quieter pace and reconnection to themselves and the earth. Those
in resistance are continuing to play out the dramas of their lives and fighting
against the universal forces.
Creative
manifestation from within!
I find the greatest disparity currently showing
up is in the attitudes and reactions to the retrograde energies and to Mercury
retrograde energy. There is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to respond when we are
challenged by life. There is only the choice of working with the energies or
against the energies. The first is the path of ease and grace and maximizing the
potential of what’s available...5d consciousness. Well we all know the path of
fighting and struggle...been there done that!
There’s all manner of projecting onto others as people react and hit out in
the old emotional manner which has been with us for so long. Of course Mercury
retrograde can bring up confusions in communication, miscommunication and
misunderstanding.
Drama, melodrama central:
Consciousness and stepping out of the
old ‘soapies’!
A lot of old stuff is surfacing and emotions are being triggered. We need
to breathe, count to 10 or 20 if necessary before responding. These
interactions are showing where we are at this time with our consciousness and
may call for a severance rather than trying to mop up the fallout. Acting and
speaking in the light of higher consciousness and respect for ourselves will
take us forward. Maintain dignity!
Disconnect from dependencies: Moving into self-sustainability!
‘Where we don’t take the sword into our own hands, the cords
will be cut for us…those tend to look like the rug-out-from-under-us scenarios’
L Gorgo
Art: Gurbuz Dogan Eksioglu
This is to some extent what was foretold in
Lauren Gorgo’s latest message, the disconnect from karmic cords and any
dependencies we are carrying. This can be on any level of our lives, mental,
emotional, physical or spiritual. We hold energies in our lives, in our being
which we outgrow when we are developing and shifting into new consciousness. We
may find a disconnection from people, places, memories, beliefs, attitudes,
work, home, projections we’ve taken on from others perceptions of us....anything
that is holding us hostage or we’re allowing to hold us hostage to the past, old
energy from which we’ve moved.
From Lauren Gorgo: Cut and/or being cut off!
Collectively, as an ascending soul group,
we are moving out of a learning experience that relied on the energetics of “human dependence” and in
the process of unhooking ourselves from our (lower) humanity, we are
paradoxically able to unite and merge more deeply with
it. We are moving into more of our “human” mastery this year and the
reimmersion into our human life with our divinity in tact requires complete (emotional)
non-attachment so that we
can participate in the world again and serve in a new/higher way…from a more
fully present, anchored divine space within.
As
a result, we spent most of April cutting cords like highly-trained karmic
ninjas, releasing
what could be called “real life evidence” of personal past creations…especially those creations in our physical
reality that depended upon someone or something to sustain
ourselves. (NOTE:
Where we don’t take the sword into our own hands, the cords will be cut for
us…those tend to look like the rug-out-from-under-us scenarios. These way-less-fun versions can certainly be
more dramatic, but they ultimately serve the same goal…to wake/open us up to the
next step beckoning us forward in our ongoing and eternal
expansion.)

A parting of the ways:
You go your way I’ll go mine!
Can you feel the parting of the ways
happening at this time?
People showing their true colours, dropping off or being dropped off. There's no right or wrong, just different values, beliefs and attitudes. Using our 5D radar is the way to go in choosing what words, actions or responses to make.
People showing their true colours, dropping off or being dropped off. There's no right or wrong, just different values, beliefs and attitudes. Using our 5D radar is the way to go in choosing what words, actions or responses to make.
Such
a huge shift in consciousness manifesting in our lives. Those of us consciously
choosing the more evolved pathway are pulling away from any unsupportive energies. Maybe those energies
are being withdrawn from our lives. Allowing the resistances and the projections
to drop off is our key to our growth and expansion. It's all good, even if it feels
a little disconcerting.
Purification
brings clarity: It’s not all endings!
Soul
reunions and renewal are on tap!
The process of clarification, clearing of the
old and purifying of our energies to stand in our authenticity without
perceiving and living through the conditioning, memories and projections of
other people, places and times is ongoing. However, as we clear those energies
not aligned with our energy, our vibration we start being seen for who we really
are and find recognition with kindred spirits, soul family, soul mate
connections. They can ‘see’ us and we can ‘see’ them. Of course it’s all about
‘feeling’ and who affirms us, loves us as we are and accepts us in the light of
the spirit of who we are. We show our spirit and start expressing this at every
moment of every day.
What’s
coming in:
Art: Voyager Tarot
The
dark of the moon: About 3 days before the New Moon...clearing, processing and
releasing time!
As
we continue to process and clear we’re moving into the powerful energies of a
New Moon in Taurus, the sign of the cosmic world tree, the earth mother energy
which
offers us all the earthly abundance our heart desires. We just need to be clear
and receptive as possible so we can accept the love, beauty, harmony and
fullness of an earthly existence.
Letting
go of inequities and injustices:
Bringing in the harvest for ourselves and
others! Keeping the focus!
The
Taurus Sun is already shining on us and calling us to accept our earthly
abundance. We’re needing to stay focussed on our deep desires at this time.
With so much inequity and injustice being increasingly revealed on the planet
it’s easy to slip into ‘what’s wrong with the world’ at the expense of working
with the energetic forces to bring in positive changes for equity and justice.
It starts with us.
The
old channels of supposed power to bring about equity such as the law and
politics are now exposed for their agendas built on power and money. We cannot
afford to let the feeling of overwhelm and despair pull us from the path of
change through building consciousness. Our energies cannot be more needed than
now if we are to bring about change for all.
The
bottom line for us all is whether we believe in the power of energy within and
the power of light over the power of the dark forces which seek to maintain
their power base built on oppression, repression, suppression and depression.
It’s time to ‘walk the talk’ fully and completely. Do you believe in the power
of energy, light and positivity as a force for change. If you do, do
it!
7th May:
New Moon in Taurus at 5.29 am AEST
at 16 degrees 41 Taurus
Art: Anastezia
The New Moon: Sun and Moon come
together...agreement!
Conjunctions/meetings of planetary bodies
signify beginnings, a new cycle and there is no new bigger cycle than the New
Moon each month. The Sun representing the projection of expression of our
essence into the outer world aligns with the Moon representing the inner essence
of our being, the unseen world of our emotional/spiritual source.
Theme and focus for this New Moon: Connecting to, manifesting
earthly joy!
Taurus offers the earthly joys and fulfilment of life as an earth being.
With a stellium/cluster of of planetary energies in Taurus including the Sun,
New Moon, Mercury and Venus the message is loud and clear. Abundant energies
are available for us accessing divine providence and earthly joys.
After so much clearing, which is continuing for so many of us, it can feel
like change is not possible. However, we need to decide that our spirits,
hearts, minds and bodies can be uplifted if we allow it to happen.
Let the body be uplifted and carried forward: Healing from the
heart!
With Mars still giving us the physical
workover/recalibration, it’s easy to be pulled back into ’hard work and
struggle’. We’re needing to allow our spirits, hearts and minds to pull us
forward and carry our bodies into the new energies of 5D.
Venus, ruler of Taurus calls to our hearts: From the heart of the earth!
From deep within the core of Mother Earth we are
called to root ourselves into our earthly lives with the mother love of Taurus.
Are we willing to accept our own worthiness, value and magnificence?
Taurus brings to light what we most value and
what we most value in ourselves. Where are we with respect to worthiness and
our willingness to receive our divine birthright of earthly abundance.
It’s not about having more than others. It’s about working with this
consciousness so that more people can access it through our forward movement.
The 100th monkey, the tipping point is with us and calls us all on the leading
edge to move forward with the consciousness of prosperity for all!
Grand Earth Trine:
The New Moon, Sun 16 degrees and Mercury 21 degrees in Taurus
Jupiter 13 degrees and North Node 21 degrees in Virgo
Pluto 17 degrees in Capricorn
Art: Crystal ally cards
Let’s get physical: Bringing dreams into physical reality!
The three earth energies, Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are complementing
each other in a powerful way at this New Moon as the Sun, Moon and Mercury are
in positive aspect/trine to Jupiter and Pluto. Earth energies offer immense
opportunities for us to bring the mental, emotional and spiritual energies into
physical manifestation. This can apply to any physical energy including the
physical body, dwelling place, working life, money and income.
The New Moon signifies an auspicious start:
Make the most of it
and hold the dreams!
As this is happening at the time of the New Moon. we have an auspicious
start to the lunar month and these energies will carry us through the month
until the next New Moon in Gemini. Earth energies work with creative
visualisation and the magnetic forces of the divine feminine drawing in through
our emanation and vibration. The magnetic divine feminine energy is in full
power! We don’t have to rush out and ’make things happen’, force the changes,
demand the changes. With all the 5 planets still in retrograde motion we are
working with a whole different energy. Imagine, visualise, hold the vision and
trust. Maintaining vision and focus can take us off track as old patterns come
into play so maintaining awareness is vital.
Moon magic: Potential for ‘miracles’ coming forth in the next
lunar month!
We can apply this positive flowing energy to any area of our lives which is
calling for growth and expansion in the physical realm. If you’ve been dreaming
in something wonderful, the energies are auspicious for an incredible
manifestation from this time forth for the next month as it will seem as if
miracles are occurring. I’m not promising this. Rather, I’m pointing out the
potential of the energy. So stay focussed on the ‘dream’ and call it to you.
It’s all moon magic being a New Moon. Setting the intent is of primary
importance as well as holding that intent from this time forth.
Jupiter in Virgo opposite Neptune in Pisces
in square to Saturn in Sagittarius: Shifting the karmic juices! Knickerbocker
Glory...layers and layers!
This aspect happening through the New
Moon period gives us the power to access, clear and release a whole heap of
karmic strands and energies we have taken on this lifetime. This powerful
aspect happening at this New Moon may trigger some tension. However, with
Jupiter playing a part in the Grand Earth Trine it’s more likely to ease off the
tensions of the squares between the planets and open the doors of release.
With Neptune in Pisces it’s the upliftment emotionally to the higher
spiritual consciousness. It’s a collective shift with the energies of
Pisces.
With Jupiter in Virgo it’s expansion and growth of higher consciousness
within our physical bodies. It’s universal with the North Node close to
Jupiter.
With Saturn in Sagittarius it’s release of karmic contracts and burdens
through the raising into higher consciousness.
Mars in retrograde until end of June: Physical bodies
recalibrating! Finding our authentic selves!
A powerful time of
release!
We still have Mars, ruler of our physical body
in retrograde motion in Sagittarius until the end of June so the full picture
with respect to our physical changes in our body may not manifest until that
time or in the following month. We are releasing and transforming all the
memories, wounds etc. taken in by us in this and other lives and realities.
Ancestral DNA is shifting as we maintain our attention to clearance.
If you can’t say something positive then don’t say it at all:
Don’t even think it!
With Mercury retrograde along with the other planets, there’s been plenty
of projecting onto others by us or by them so we need to keep clearing and
sending off criticisms, judgements, opinions, belief systems we are taking on or
that we’re sending out. The best way we can progress is to give permission for
ourselves and others to be true and authentic. Thoughts and emotions travel
energetically and can impact on others. Focussing on ourselves and our own
growth at this time is going to make all the difference for our evolution and
for our loved ones.
Healing energies of Taurus: Venus and Mercury, heart
and mind in tune and vibrating to divine will of Taurus!
Taurus rules the throat, neck and thymus. It is
strongly connected to the power of music and vibrational energies which align us
with divine will. The neck is often an indication of resistance to divine will
and to accessing the full power of our own divinity.
Sing up, sing out: Toning, chanting, singing are especially
powerful clearing energies at this time...the voice has it!
This is a perfect time to work with sound healing
vibrations while these two planets travel through Taurus, until the end of May
when Venus moves on to Gemini. Of course, any time is good for working with
sound healing. However, this is a particularly potent time for clearing the
chakras and the body. Respiratory system is highlighted with Mercury in Taurus
and of course the heart energy of Venus connecting to the lungs and circulation.
Beating the drum for Mars:
Needless to say, Mars travelling retrograde may
need some release through physical expressive energies such as drumming, dance,
clapping, stamping feet or tribal rhythms. Mars is the ruler of our physical
body and with all that’s changing in our bodies we can shift things along with
that physical exercise and grounding that comes through the music and the earth.
The Sabian Symbols at the New
Moon:

have been writing at the beginning of this update. It seems to fit like a glove
doesn’t it.

Taurus
17
A SYMBOLICAL BATTLE BETWEEN ‘SWORDS’ - THE
DISCIPLES OF MIGHT, AND ‘TORCHES’ - THE DISCIPLES OF ENLIGHTENMENT
This Symbol shows a battle between the
forces of good and the forces of evil. Although we all have our own ideas of
right and wrong, this Symbol shows a desire to go head-to-head in an attempt to
bring light and love to situations that seem dark or foreboding. Often, there is
a struggle between one's practical needs and the underlying reasons for having
those needs. You may find yourself sometimes caught up in what you are trying to
achieve and have lost sight of why. There's often corruption around, but the
endeavor to bring 'enlightenment' to people often meets with severe resistance.
Witness the stranglehold the media has on information. 'Might' versus 'light'.
Arguments over ideals. The Spear of Destiny. Arguments. The Inquisition. The
Crusades. The pen being mightier than the sword. The media. Wars.
The Caution: Controlling with rational force rather than inner enlightenment. The interests of big business vs. those of the individual. Propaganda. Struggles that overtake.

9th May:
Jupiter stations direct at 10.14 pm AEST at
13 degrees 15 Virgo
Jupiter is the first of our 5 retrograde
planets to station/turn direct. This is an indication that the planetary
energies are preparing us to step up and prepare to step out into the world.
However, we’re still working with a very contained energy as though we’re
‘undercover’ agents.
Hold that steam!
Just hold your horses or should I say ‘steam’ as we won’t have Mercury
turning direct for 2 more weeks. Mars, our other mover and shaker. along with
Mercury won’t turn direct until the end of June. So, easy does it!
What’s been happening to us: Virgo purification of
consciousness!
Jupiter’s been working with our health and wellbeing, the purification of
our higher consciousness as he rules Sagittarius and Virgo rules ‘healing’. So
we’re still in that energy for a few more months.
Where are we now: Higher consciousness more
accessible!
However, we’re likely to notice a significant shift which has happened in
our consciousness since Jupiter went retrograde. Jupiter’s been clearing cell
memories in our physical being which are not aligned with higher truth and
wisdom.
Manifestation power of the New Moon: Jupiter’s in the
trine!
With Jupiter’s participation in this New Moon Grand Earth Trine on 7th it
will be interesting to see how that plays out when Jupiter changes direction
bringing us back into the world again just 2 days later.
Possible changes we may experience:
Easier to take the higher road, speak our truth, be stronger in holding our
divine mind and being our ‘higher’ self. More ease and grace!
9th May: Transit of Mercury across Sun
I am sending out a separate email on this and ongoing energies as there is
so much happening to us all at this time.
Dark and Light:
This message popped up at the time I was preparing this update and added
more insight to the understanding of the ‘tipping point’ we’re reaching in terms
of consciousness on the planet. I know many of you would be familiar with Kryon
who has proved accurate over many years.

Balance’

9th May:
Transit of Mercury across the Sun
Hi everyone!
This is the shortest update! Promise.
It’s just to give you the astronomy and astrology of Mercury’s transit of
the Sun on 9th May.
Mercury currently retrograde in Taurus:
Mercury rules our mental body, our mind power. Currently in retrograde
motion in Taurus, it’s been clearing all manner of thoughts and belief systems
in a honing and purifying process which is taking us to clear spaces in our
thinking. It’s stripping away the layers and overlays that keep us from being
true to our selves, our authentic selves.
Mercury’s transit of the Sun: Insights and
revelations!
Mercury transiting the Sun, the most powerful source of light in our
galaxy, is offering a rare treat, a lighting up of our minds with insights and
revelations regarding our mental processes, thoughts and beliefs.
No matter where we live we will all be offered this rare insight into our
mental workings and a light clearance of extraneous energies which have been
clogging up and confusing our thought processes.

Astronomy:
9th May: Transit of Mercury across the
Sun
Dates, times and places for viewing of the transit of
Mercury:
From New Scientist:
Quote from New Scientist:
The messenger of the gods is on the move. Next Monday, the planet
Mercury will pass in front of the sun, appearing as a tiny black speck for about
seven hours. This relatively rare event happens only a dozen times a century –
the last time was a decade ago.
The passage, or transit, of Mercury will begin at 11:12 UTC on 9
May and end at 18:42 UTC, and should be viewable from most of Western Europe and
North America, along with all of South America.
If you want to watch, don’t look directly at the sun, as you could
injure your eyes. If you have glasses left over from last year’s solar
eclipse, put those away as well.
“Special glasses are no use because Mercury is so tiny, you need a magnified
image to see it,” says David Rothery at the Open University in Milton Keynes,
UK.
Wearing eclipse glasses and looking through a telescope or
binoculars is also dangerous, so the best way to view the transit is either with
a telescope equipped with a solar filter, or projecting an image of the sun
onto a piece of paper.
Watch it live
If you don’t have any of that equipment to hand, observatories
around the world will be live-streaming the transit, and both the European Space Agency and NASA plan to cover the event in its
entirety.
Astology:
Jonathan Cainer:
Sadly one of my favourite astrologers passed over last week. He was part
of my daily ritual of good cheer as he was for many others around the world.
Prior to his passing I had copied this information off the net which was
published in the Daily Mail earlier this year.
From Jonathan Cainer: The Daily
Mail includes the outlook for each zodiac sign for the impact of this
event.
‘Will
your dreams come true in 2016? A dazzling celestial event - a rare glimpse of
Mercury - heralds a year of rich promise’ JONATHAN CAINER
‘If you don’t have special glasses,
then you absolutely must not look or you will damage your eyes. You’ll have to
rely instead on specially filtered internet video feeds. But even if you don’t see a single thing, you can rest
assured that this rare celestial development is meaningful and powerful.
Astrologers are quite sure that it
affects the whole year for everyone, regardless of what sign they were born
under — and regardless of whether or not they actually see it
happen.
The impact, we feel, starts right now.
It colours and covers the whole of 2016.
As it involves the traditional planet
of commerce and communication, ‘revealing’ what was previously hidden, we should
see it as a portent of profitable discovery, in each and every life. It’s the
year we all find out more about who we were born to be, what we may one day be
capable of, and how brightly our futures have the potential to
shine.
It’s also the year in which gloomy
predictions about a future full of austerity and difficulty begin to melt away!
(So, too, sadly, do the low interest rates.)
The world is entering a phase of
dramatic, positive growth. And no, I’m happy to predict that this won’t all be
stimulated by an expensive, extensive war effort.
A general, truly global confidence in a
future for the world that’s both peaceful and prosperous will gradually but
inexorably grow.
If you want to know more about how the
outlook for your zodiac sign is due to shape up in 2016 under the auspicious
influence of this rare Transit of Mercury … read on!’
While Mercury is "in the heart of the Sun" on May
9th, be extra aware of your internal self-talk, your body language and
what your body is trying to tell you. "Feed me with better food." "Take me out
for a walk." "I'm over-stressed and need some rest." "I'm too wired and need to
sleep." "I'm stuck in lazy mode – either let me enjoy it without nagging at me,
or help me get moving again." "This feels good – let's do this more
often!"
Also be aware of brilliant ideas you may have, which might
involve money-making or budgeting, or how to make a purchase that gives you more
value for your money. You might have a revelation about your values and what is
important to you, and whether or not you are honouring those values in your
day-to-day decisions. You might discover a new skill—or the need for
one.
Whatever comes to you, make a mental or written note about it. Do
your research about it while Mercury is still retrograde or wait until it goes
direct, whichever feels right.
From Stephanie Azaria:
Cosmic Consciousness Daily for 7th May:
The next two weeks are filled with
explosions of Love's abundance. It is very important to focus on that reality.
It has been difficult getting here, and many of us are still coming out of some
very tough situations. It's easy enough to stay focused on the hardships, which
will only serve to limit the experience of beneficence that is here and
available to each and every one of us.
The days ahead are filled with
trines and conjunctions of the most amazing kind. Saturn serves as a Great
Eliminator force, but Saturn
is retrograding over the Great Attractor at this time, which means that
whatever
shows up in the way of inner guidance and Self-empowerment is actually the
energy of Source. Trust it, and let your heart be your compass, moral and
otherwise.
Upcoming Dates:
21st May: Sun moves into Gemini
22nd May: Full Moon in Sagittarius
22nd May: Mercury moves direct
24th May: Venus moves into Gemini
That’s it folks!
The next 2 weeks are filled with positive and expansive transits of the
planets which are carrying us forward to the Full Moon in Sagittarius on 22nd
along with Mercury’s station/turn around and return from his inner journey.
Whoo hooo!
Love and blessings all
Helen
It’s all about love
