New Moon and Chinese New Year from Stephanie

this came in an email and might interest others who are not on Stephanie St. Clare's mailing list.

The New Moon is this evening at 11:30 PM pacific time which means the New Moon is very early Monday morning, 1/23, at 12:39 AM MST.    You will have to figure out when the New Moon occurs according to your time zone.  The New Moon is at 2 degrees 42 minutes of Aquarius. 

Tomorrow, January 23, is also when Mars turns retrograde and the Chinese Year of the Black Water Dragon commences.   Quite a combination of events!

In Chinese history, the Year of the Dragon was considered to represent auspicious and unpredictable fortunes.  Successful new ventures and valuable relationships are more likely to emerge (especially after Mars turns forward in April and Venus leaves it's retrograde position (May 15 - June 27....see 

my predictions email tomorrow).

According to George Ward, who writes the column for the Pleiadian Times, he says:  "In the Chinese understanding of the elemental cycle of nature, the color black and the water element symbolize rebirth, new beginnings and the resting, rejuvenating power of the winter season. In 2012, the Year of the Dragon will activate many initiations into cycles of enormous change, extraordinary alliances and unexpected possibilities.  However, Dragon Years can also magnify impulsive behavior, excessive indulgence and fearful obsessions. The water element encourages us to fine-tune our intuition and sensitivity, which requires self-discipline, reflection and stillness. This is the year to face our demons and overturn our fears into personal victories. Water Dragons were also believed to inhabit water sources like lakes, rivers and oceans.  With all the increases in nuclear, solar and galactic radiation, the waters of earth are in turmoil.  If we communicate and express intentions of healing toward water, the chi energy of the Water Dragons can respond to assist us in detoxifying, calming and revitalizing the emotionally charged waters of our inner and outer environments."

My predictions are being completed at this time and will be forwarded to everyone tomorrow around 12 PM.  I am letting everyone know ahead of time, that it is a VERY LONG article.  You may want to printit out and/or read it in segments.  It's taken me three weeks, off and on, to write it.

Blessings, Stephanie

Lena's thoughts in a link for January

January update from Power Path

As for me, Rain, I am not totally into astrology to the point that I base my life around it but sometimes you have to wonder when you are feeling something like a lot of stress and ineffectiveness, then you talk to other creative friends who are experiencing the same thing. Maybe something's going on. That's when I go looking for what.

For me it's been a time of a lot of thinking, mental chaos almost if I don't try to control it where my mind jumps from one thing to another. I don't feel it's bad but do feel I need to focus and quit worrying. I even wrote a blog about it which is, of course, slightly chaotic as one might expect based on the general malaise I feel, but I will have it up tomorrow in Rainy Day Thoughts-- chaotic or not. 

I am hoping this will be a great year and see no reason it will not even if its beginning has been a little depressing for me on many levels. The writing though is going well. Personal life-- a little more iffy but I'm working on it.

Numerology

Because I wanted to write about 11/11/11 for another blog I write, I looked up my own number at that site and thought it was interesting and pretty much what I have to watch out for on the negative side.  I always knew 7 was my number even before I found out it actually is for those who follow numerology. Here's the site I was using, if you want to check it out, which I simply found in a Google search-- numerology to find life path

************************

The Life Path 7 suggests that you entered this plane with a gift for investigation, analysis, and keen observation. You are a thinker of the first order. You evaluate situations very quickly, and with amazing accuracy. As a result, you are thorough and complete in your work, the perfectionist who expects everyone else to meet a high standard of performance, too.

A Life Path 7 person is a peaceful and affectionate soul. But you guard your connection to people carefully. It's easy for you to detect deception and recognize insincere people, and you avoid them. You aren't one to have a wide circle of friends, but once you accept someone as a friend, it's for life. It's as if you must get to know someone a lot better before you allow the wall surrounding you to be penetrated. Chances are you are a very charming and refined individual with great poise and a quick wit. Nonetheless, there is an exclusiveness about you. You probably aren't a very social person. Your reserve is often taken to be aloofness, but actually, it's not that at all. It is merely a cover up for your basic feeling of insecurity. There's no rush, It takes time for you to warm up to new friends. Clubs and organizations hold little interest for you; you are not a joiner.

You actually like being alone and away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. In many ways, you would have fit in better in much earlier times when the pace of life was less hectic. You need a good deal of quiet time to be with your own inner thoughts and dreams. You dislike crowds, noise, distractions, and confusion.

The overwhelming strength of the number 7 is reflected in the depth of thinking that is shown; you will garner knowledge from practically every source that you find. Intellectual, scientific, and studious, you don't accept a premise until you have dissected the subject and arrived at your own independent conclusion.

This is a very spiritual number and it often denotes a sort of spiritual wisdom that becomes apparent at a fairly early age. A built in inner guide providing a strong sense of intuition may set you up as being a law unto yourself. Whatever spiritual position you take, whether traditional or bizarre, you will cling to it with fervor. Once you have decided an issue, it is almost impossible to get you to revisit the question. Adaptability is not your style, and change for you is a rarity.

You rely heavily on your experiences and your intuition, rather than accepting advice from someone. Your hunches usually prove to be very accurate, and knowing this, you follow the directions they seem to guide.

In the most negative use of the 7 energies, you can become very pessimistic, lackadaisical, quarrelsome, and secretive. A Life Path 7 individual who is not living life fully and gaining through experiences, is a hard person to live with because of a serious lack of consideration for others. There is such a negative attitude. Indeed, operating on the negative side of the 7 can produce a very selfish and spoiled individual and living with one can be a challenge. This may be why some 7s actually prefer living alone. If you have any of the negative traits they are very difficult to get rid of because you tend to feel that the world really does owe you a living or that in some way you are not being fairly treated.

Fortunately, the negative 7 is not the typical 7, at least not without some mitigating positive traits. This number is one that seems to have some major shifts from highs to lows. Stability in feelings may be elusive for you.

The main theme for November is RENEWAL.

This is the time to renew your commitments, your intentions and your priorities. It is the month
to refresh your environment, to refinish and brighten what has dulled, to rekindle important
friendships, to recharge relationships, to bring more chi into the body and to re-determine your
goals and the path to reach them.

November is a more masculine month with plenty of energy available for moving forward.
We have had times supporting movement previously this year. The difference now is that
everything has shifted, giving you more access to the quantum field and to what is possible.
You need to acknowledge this difference and expand your awareness to accommodate it.

The image is of being in a small pond where you know your limits and your limitations, the
edges and the boundaries. The pond has become too small however you are used to navigating
within it. The enclosure of the pond has been removed and we find ourselves in a vast ocean
not being able to use the sight and feel of the enclosure for navigation. What is necessary now
is to trust the inner navigation, your inner radar. This inner radar is your own intuition and sense
of self, sense of what is right and sense of where your path lies. Your inner radar is your own
heart.

Deeper dimensions of experience are now available to us where we are not limited to
experiencing just the physical plane. When you look at a tree you will begin to see not just the
physical form of the tree, but rather a multidimensional experience of the tree, its spirit, its communication, its soul. The same goes for people around you. You will begin to experience
them as multidimensional beings with loads of history. The downside of this expansion is the
tendency for overload and the possibility of losing ones tether to the agreed upon collective
experience of the physical world. You will probably witness what appears to be mental
breakdown and psychic meltdown among many who are not able to differentiate and separate
the physical from the astral very well. They need much compassion and help at this time.

Then there are those that are not conscious enough yet to notice any difference. We have said
before that this time frame will begin to create a huge gap between how one person
experiences life as opposed to another person. One person's reality will definitely be way
different than another's depending on their level of consciousness. These times require a great
allowing and acceptance of others to be just where they are and acknowledging that the
experience of life will be as varied as each individual.

It is important that you keep a good handle on reality during these times but with a conscious
allowing of a gradual expansion into the broader experience available. This can be done with
intention and we advise taking some time every day to meditate and open your senses. This is
a good practice also when you are in nature or in a place of clearer energy. It is not advised
when you are in a crowd. If you feel you are on overload you may need to practice pulling your
energy field in and putting some protection up. Recommended audio for working with the
themes of the month link: Energy Management: Protection & Appropriate Exchange .

The masculine quality of the month provides an opportunity for great clarity especially if you use
your intuition with it. Anytime you feel confused you are probably trying to sort things out based
on something other than what simply feels right to you. Beware of too many cooks in the kitchen
when you are in the process of an important decision. Remember that others view things
through the lens of their own experience and what ends up being right for you may not always
make sense to them. It is always a good idea to run things by someone you trust but the final
decision will have to be yours alone.

In this time you all should be renewing your commitment to taking responsibility for your own
lives. No one is going to fix it, make it better, get you out of debt, improve your health, give you
a better job, remove your addictions and co-dependencies, or make anything stop except you,
yourself. This is the time of growing up. It is your life. Stop whining and complaining and renew
your commitment to yourself to create the kind of life that you want. Not what someone else
thinks you should be doing, but what you want. Renew your intentions and honor that this is a
time of renewal when anything becomes possible. Dream big.


Now comes the hard part; dealing with the distractions that threaten to derail you at every turn.

There is the story of the monk and the temple of a thousand demons. A group of monks were to
go through their final test, getting through the temple of a thousand demons. One by one the
monks entered the first door and after screams and intense noises coming from inside the
temple not one of them emerged from the door on the other side. Finally the last monk asked
the elder priest for any advice that would help him get through. "Just keep your eye on the door
on the other side. Never take your eyes off the door", the elder answered. The young monk
entered and after a time of the same loud intense noises and screams, he came tumbling out
the door on the other side. When asked how he had done it when so many others had failed, he
said "I just kept my eye on the door, never took it off".

The door on the other side represents your goals and intentions. The temple of a thousand
demons is life itself. The distractions are your reactions and any behavior that is not of spirit.
Feed any energy at all into a small drama and it will very quickly become a big one. Any
reaction at all that is not completely neutral will have a charge to it and throw you off center. You
will notice that all behaviors not of spirit are initiated by some reaction that is not neutral.
Practice neutrality. It is absolutely the best thing you can do and always puts you in a position of
power. So renew your priorities based on your inner rudder and your heart and then keep your
eye on your goals, on the door on the other side of the temple of a thousand demons.

The theme of Boundaries is a big one this month. As energetic limitations are lifted it is
important to renew and reset your own boundaries. In the exploration of the expanded access to
the quantum field, you may run across some people with no boundaries at all and others that try
to impose on yours or impose their boundaries on you. Everything and everyone is pushing this
way and that in an attempt to reset some kind of order. It is up to you to reset and renew your
own boundaries according to your priorities and goals. The human experience has been based
on reaction and pushing up against something. When you are in the ocean there is nothing to
push up against until a boundary is created. The new container has to be created from within
and many people are not used to the responsibility of the task. It will be very interesting to
observe in the next year or so, what becomes manifest.

Sometimes renewal demands the death of something. The theme of death/rebirth is also active
this month. As you go through your life and decide what needs renewal, there may be aspects
that you can no longer tolerate or accommodate. Open your eyes and see things realistically.
Allow death when it is called for by purposefully eliminating what is past. Especially use death to eliminate old dramas that still have you tethered. Remember that if it does not feel good and if
you cannot be neutral about it, it is not of spirit.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY

This is an excellent month to renew your commitments to yourself about how you wish to create
your life. Revisit areas of spiritual practice, health, life task, work, play, study and rest. What is
working for you? Where do you feel a bit lost? What about your boundaries? What's missing?
Who do you want to spend time with? Who not? Don't be afraid to make changes even if you
think you will be disappointing others. Never make decisions based on how others may react.
And be sure that your decisions are also not made out of personal reactions of your own.

Since there is the opportunity for a great deal of clarity this month, wait with major decisions
until you reach that clarity. This is clarity of heart not necessarily of mind. You should feel right
and good about your direction of renewal and your renewed intentions. Be disciplined about
keeping your eye on the door and make a plan that will help you with your distractions. The plan
should include disciplined practices and constant reminders to be neutral, to let things go, not to
feed drama, and to watch your reactions.

RELATIONSHIPS

A great month to renew partnership commitments, and to establish either deeper commitments
or cut loose relationships where there is ambivalence or a lack of commitment. It is also a good
time to renew communications and exchanges with acquaintances that could become
friendships and business connections that could become resources. Beware of wasting any
time around those that you should not be around. You know who they are. Occasionally there is
the karmic exception, but even karmic circumstances are now up for review and renewal.

You may have a desire to connect with old friends or to revisit business alliances that were put
on hold for whatever reason. It is also an excellent time to clear up any old misunderstandings

November Forecast 2011

and unresolved or confused feelings as you renew your rolodex of old and new relationships. It
will be important to start this time frame with as clean a slate as possible. Any energy you are
putting into old memories, regrets, resentments or dreams will only hold you back from the vast
opportunities available now. So be available.

November will be a combination of much needed alone time within your own boundaries and
clarity, and social time connecting you with others. Keep a balance so that neither area gets
overloaded.

THE ENVIRONMENT

The environment is on board with the theme of renewal. We may have a renewed interest on a
global level of renewable energy and there will be a renewed commitment towards adopting
sustainable practices. In terms of weather patterns, look for a new sense of stability in the
instability and unpredictability. It is as if we have finally become more comfortable with not
knowing or needing to know and predict everything. Reactions to global earth and weather
related events get less and less reaction as people are becoming more flexible and more
cooperative.

Continue to watch for travel delays, unusual weather, unseasonable highs and lows, first time
occurrences of phenomena around the globe, storms, fires, earthquakes, volcanic activity, and
flooding. Don't believe everything you hear especially around long-term predictions. It is best
not to buy into anything that is a prediction of a future trend. Remember that the weather and
climate is malleable depending on collective intentions and whatever lessons we need to learn.
So be careful not to fix the energy too solidly about what is happening.

The sun is very active at this time and a great influence on the magnetics as well as the weather
patterns on the planet. It would be a good idea to work some daily with the sun in honor of it,
absorbing the energy of the sun, filling you up with a higher frequency.

HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY

November Forecast 2011

The physical body is still adjusting to a new set of pulses. The most important thing is not to
define, diagnose or settle for whatever you are feeling on a particular day. The quality of
experience in these times is that that you can be feeling one way one day and the next day
things can be completely different. It is crucial to renew your commitment to caring for your
body, and to renew your intentions and your communication with the body. The physical body at
this time is capable of miraculous healing and instant changes. What is required is trust and
communicating your heartfelt intentions to your body. Make a practice of talking to your body
every day with love, compassion, enthusiasm and inspiration. Treat your body as if it were a
child eager to learn, to try and to succeed.

Some of you will get a distinct experience of the body feeling like it is being rewired on an
energetic level. A greater circuitry is available for the auric field that will eventually filter down
into the cellular matrix. Take time this month to sit with what is more than just your physical
body and to get to know your field. A good practice will be to set your boundaries and to make
sure you are protected as you expand into a new awareness.

FINANCE, PROJECTS, PARTNERSHIPS, BUSINESS

As we mentioned in the relationship section, this is an excellent time to rekindle partnerships
and renew agreements, priorities and business collaborations. In terms of business, it is a
crucial time to revisit your work and to see if it is truly what you desire to be doing. Since this is
a time of great opportunity for creating new goals and intentions in this time of renewal, this
would be the time to make changes in your work or business if needed.

Remember to dream big right now. It may feel counter-intuitive, as the global community is still
feeling constricted economically. The situation of the economy has very little to do with what
energies are available and it is best to separate yourself from the collective fear pattern in this
case. We are not suggesting that you go into debt and throw caution to the wind. We are only
suggesting that you do not put any energy into the fearful collective belief of recession, lack,
debt and constriction. It would be much more useful and highly beneficial for you to be putting
energy into gratitude for the abundance of what is available for the asking from the quantum
field and spirit.

This is good month to change anything regarding your banking, investments or business that
you have been thinking about for awhile. Refresh and renew.

November Forecast 2011

POLITICS AND GLOBAL ISSUES

The renewal theme here will show up both positively and negatively. There will be a renewed
effort for peace, harmony and balance through communication and commitment to move
forward in specific areas and within specific global communities. This is positive. However you
will also have renewed efforts of factions to continue putting forward their negative behaviors,
beliefs, actions and intentions. These could end up in violence and major disruption. As much
as possible, it is a good idea to stay clear of any reactions to this that are not neutral. This is a
tall order but will help to dissolve the patterns much more quickly than intense reactions
followed by feeding energy to the drama of it all.

Politics becomes much more community oriented and people will gravitate towards communities
of like-minded people over time. We will begin to see even more migrations of people to where
they choose to live based on community rather than moving somewhere only for a job
especially if the job does not support who they are. On a global level with the increase of global
communications and wireless networks, the world will begin to feel smaller and smaller and
much more like one large community over time.

DATES AND TIME FRAMES

November 1-7: A time of revisiting your priorities and raising yourself above the demands of
others. Set good boundaries and face the truth about what is in your life that is no longer
tolerable. Be neutral about it, accept it, and make a good plan for the death of it. This is also a
good time frame to feel energized and to reach out to others you want to connect or reconnect
with. Be disciplined about good time and energy management. Make sure that your personal
time for meditation and exploration of expanded awareness does not get chipped away by
unnecessary responsibilities.

November 8-15: You will either get very clear insights, know exactly what to do, where you are
going and what you need; or you will be suffering from overload, confusion and anxiety. If you
are clear, you will also have energy and stamina and be rearing to go and take action. If you are
feeling the opposite, you may experience lethargy, low energy and a lack of inspiration and
enthusiasm. If this is the case, you have gotten lost in the temple of a thousand demons and
you have allowed yourself to become distracted. No one can fix this for you except you. Stop

November Forecast 2011

everything, cancel obligations, take some time and revisit, review and question. Where have
you become distracted? What is yours and what isn't? How are your boundaries? Where did
you slip? What needs to die?

Chances are you are facing doing something that you really don't want to do. Perhaps it is an
old obligation you feel you need to complete. Chances are also that you have allowed too much
input from others into your space causing confusion instead of being helpful. Do what you need
to do to get yourself back on the path where you can see the door on the other side. What are
your renewed goals and intentions? Is what you are doing now in your life supporting them? Be
clear and use the masculine to take a step in the right direction. Work with death and eliminate
something that is dragging you down.

November 10: Full Moon is at 1:17PM Mountain Standard Time. This full moon time enhances
for you whatever is going on. So be vigilant, neutral, clear and inspired.

November 16-22: This is a time of many practical accomplishments. Look for synchronicity and
things just falling into place when the intentions are spot on. During these days whatever is in
process should be easy and smooth and no effort. If you experiencing the opposite, you are
putting energy into the wrong things. This could also be an incredible time of good health and
reversals in anything challenging or difficult. The key is to discipline your mind against wanting
to micromanage, know and control everything. During this time you may witness things
occurring that make no sense or should not be possible. The quantum field is very available and
those who work with it intentionally will definitely get results.

November 24: New Moon with a partial solar eclipse is at 11:10 PM Mountain Standard Time.
This is a portal where new information and new ways of experiencing, seeing and feeling
become possible. It is definitely worthwhile spending some time in contemplation and making
yourself available to spirit and to your practices. There is a good potential for higher centered
experiences. This time can also trigger some movement in the environment, earthquakes, high
tides, storms etc.

November 23-30: A window of time punctuated either by great elation and feeling better than
you have ever felt, or by the resurfacing of old fear and constriction patterns. You may even
experience both in the same day. This is also the time frame where people can experience a
deep anxiety as they realize that the safe container of the small pond no longer exists and they
are in a vast ocean without a rudder or radar. They should also be realizing that creating

November Forecast 2011

boundaries and managing their energy is going to be entirely up to them. Those of you in the
healing or counseling professions could be very busy assisting others in finding their new
footing. Great compassion for self and others is needed now. Watch your reactions, stay neutral
and keep your face to the sun.

Have a wonderful month!

October Forecast 2011 | Print |

By Lena Stevens www.thepowerpath.com The main theme for October 2011 is Turning Point. The image is that of facing a well-known view, in fact a view you have become so accustomed to you hardly notice it anymore. And now you have just realized that you are turning away from this view 90 degrees to the right and leaving it completely behind in order to face a new view. Suddenly it dawns on you that the old view will be gone forever, never to be seen again in the same way. There is nostalgia around the permanence of the loss of this old view. It is familiar to you and it has served to inspire, entertain, give you feedback and be a placeholder in your life. You realize that once you turn towards the new view the old one is gone forever. And despite the inadequacies of the old view in matching a new time, there is a resistance to giving it up and turning towards the unknown. What if the new view isn't as good as the old one? What if you won't be able to see the new view? What if it is not a clear view, or an inspiring one? What if there is no new view? The Turning Point can also be called the Point of No Return. When one season ends and another begins, as in moving from Summer to Fall, there is no going back. You have passed the point of no return. And as you move clockwise around the medicine wheel from one direction to the next, you are at a point of no return as you arrive at the new position or direction. The natural progression in moving forward is always clockwise or to your right. That is the way the clock works, the seasons roll, and wheels move forward. So we are at the point of turning clockwise into a new landscape providing us with a new view. We have been creating this new view for a while now. We just have not turned our sights on it as yet. The new view has been waiting for our much-needed focus on it to come into being and we are just now at that point but some of us still unwilling to make the final turn. What we do not realize in our resistance is that the new view is fabulous, inspiring, supportive and perfect for where we need to go. However in order to see the new view we must turn away from the old one and turn towards the new one. This is happening whether you are choosing to or not. We are truly at the Turning Point right now. Another image to work with is the idea of the Turning Point as the point at which there is enough energy moving in a certain direction to insure a result. If you have been ill and are recovering, there is turning point in your illness where you are insured a recovery. The same thing applies to an ending or a death. There is a certain turning point at which there is a certainty about the outcome. When a lot of energy is being put into building a business or starting a project, or cultivating a relationship, there is always a turning point at which it either takes off or you see that it won't work. This month you have the opportunity to experience turning points in many aspects of your life. Perhaps you have set certain intentions, and worked with them over time. This month you may get to experience a turning point in manifesting those intentions. Other themes of the month are Transition/Transformation and Death/Rebirth. Transition/Transformation and Death/Rebirth are similar in that they both use the turning point to move from one point to another. The main characteristic of this change as a turning point is that there is finality to the ending of one experience that automatically turns you towards another one. What is the experience of the Turning Point trying to teach us this month? What we need to learn is to be more present so we can fully embrace what is in front of us and then let it go with gratitude for the experience it provided. We need to learn to be less attached so that we can turn away from the old view and toward the new one with less resistance. We also need to learn to be more trusting and confident that the view we are creating that we are turning toward is exactly what we want and need. We need to face this view with confidence, enthusiasm and excitement instead of with fear. Many of you know that there is a marker at the end of this month that marks the official end of the Mayan Calendar, namely the date of October 28, 2011. There are many predictions about what may happen at this time. Some predict 3 days of darkness, some predict major earth changes, some predict that nothing significant will happen, and other predict that the changes will be mostly personal, emotional and psychological October 28, 2011 is simply a marker as it is impossible to predict what the Turning Point will manifest. What we can predict is change and transition that brings us all beyond the point of no return. How the month shows up: YOU PERSONALLY Use the month to get present. Use the month to fully take in your experiences with gratitude and use the month to fully release what you are turning away from. You may go through feelings of nostalgia, sadness and even some grief, much of it general and not really connected to anything. Nostalgia is in the air as we are turning towards a new view. See and experience everything with presence. Practice saying goodbye to what you know, and hello to the unknown view ahead. This is an incredible time where you can experience the turning point towards the positive in many areas you have put energy into. It is a good month for manifesting especially something you have been putting your focus into for a long time. You may also feel compelled to finally let go of what is holding you back from that new view. Make friends with death and the finality of its lessons. A good exercise to do daily would be to face a literal view that you are familiar with and then to turn 90 degrees to your right, trying on the experience that you will never see the old view again. Take in the beauty and wonder of the new view and see its possibilities as positive and supportive. Do this as many times during the day wherever you are to practice the experience of the turning point. RELATIONSHIPS There are aspects of relationship this month that point to moving towards more balance of the masculine and the feminine. There is an underlying practicality to the times that will govern relationships as well as other things. Since we are in a time of increased relationship awareness, be aware of all your relationships, not only to other humans and animals, but also to nature, your thoughts, work, body, health, habits, dreams and intentions. Since this is a practical time, do what is practical. If it is to heal a relationship, heal it. If it is to eliminate one, eliminate it. If it is to transform one, do that. There is a soft ruthlessness that comes with compassion but also a sense of not being willing to put up with what does not serve. Watch when things want to become dramatic. This is not necessarily a dramatic month but one of persevering towards what you know is right. The opportunity is for stronger more balanced relationships to emerge as they move through their turning points. Be careful not to blame. THE ENVIRONMENT The environment is in a time of pulling into itself its energy and resources. You could say it is an internal time for the environment with not a whole lot showing up on the outside. However just as a large wave pulls energy into itself before crashing onto shore, the environment is in the process of pulling energy into itself biding time until the next show. There is no predicting how it may show up. Mother nature is certainly not finished with its support of our process of transformation, evolution and change. Our lesson is to trust the process and see it as supportive instead of inconvenient. The best preparation is flexibility and the willingness to face the wave head on. Use the exercise of turning towards a new view with the environment in mind. It will help you to feel as a co creator instead of a victim. HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY Your health will use the turning point theme to either get better or to get worse. Which way it goes is entirely up to you and depends a lot on where you have been putting your energy in this area. It is not too late to make choices to improve our health and your relationship with the physical body however those choices cannot be ambivalent. The universe needs to see that you are serious. You must show a strong intention by being willing to turn away from the habits and thoughts that keep you from your optimal health. This is a month when you could actually experience miracles and situations turning around almost overnight. Your beliefs will have much to do with this. This is also a month where you may feel fatigued and need more rest. The pace of the last few months has left many of you feeling like you need a break. It is a good time to take care and nurture yourself. Support the immune system and the adrenals. FINANCE, PROJECTS, PARTNERSHIPS, BUSINESS An excellent month to fine-tune what you want, where you are going, who with and how. The turning point here has much to do with letting go of any old judgments about what you have or have not accomplished and what you have or do not have to show in your life at the moment in terms of traditional success. Turn away from the old view of how you believe things ought to be done and be willing to open up to a new way of doing things. This may require a restructure of some sort but the outcome may be phenomenally successful. Some projects you have been steadily feeding with your intentions and hard work will reach a turning point and suddenly you will see your hard earned results. POLITICS AND GLOBAL ISSUES Some global issues will reach a turning point that you will be able to define as positive and some will pass a point of no return that signals their demise. This is true for individuals as well as policies and global issues that affect countries, states and regions. As we delve deeper into the awareness of how everything is related, it will become more and more obvious through the domino effects of decisions impacting all the countries of the world economically and in other ways. We are building towards more awareness even thought it will still take some time. Be ready for more startling events and scandals to be uncovered. Don't get caught up in the judgment and polarity these truths could bring. Accept wit compassion and forgiveness and keep turning towards a new view. DATES AND TIME FRAMES October 1-7: There is a quality of stillness to this time frame almost as a wave gathering its energy. It is a good time to reflect, to be aware, to practice staying present and to be fully in whatever experience you are having. This is more about being than it is about doing. Practice gratitude for everything and be aware of the impermanence of what you experience. Spend time in contemplation and be aware of your own process rather that be distracted by what others want or are doing. You can easily be derailed by chaos at this time. Setting up just right for the turning point requires being focused without distraction. Eliminate chaos whenever possible at this time. October 8-15: Feel full, feel nostalgic, feel emotional, feel expanded, feel blessed, feel supported, feel inspired, feel excited. This can be a stable but higher centered time that is marked by the full moon on the 11th. Breathe deeply and turn any sadness, grief, disappointment, anxiety, worry or despair into the peace of letting go. Make friends with death as an ally to help you let go of the old view. Get excited about the possibilities the new view will bring. What if the new view is so wonderful you could never have imagined it? October 11: Full Moon is at 8:06PM Mountain Daylight Time. A beautiful and practical time full of feeling, of love, of possibilities, of wonder, of friendship, support and delight. Use the turning point exercise to imprint yourself with the positive aspects of embracing the new view. October 16-23: You will definitely experience the turning point during this time frame. It can either be a painful experience of letting go or a euphoric one of movement to a new paradigm. The veil of the physical realm is thin and you could have a lot of astral bleed through where you feel that you are dreaming in snippets while awake. This is a great time for meditation and spending time in conscious daydreams. Make sure to be proactive with your intentions during this time. This is also where you can begin to see your hard work paying off. Never cease to prune, get rid of, or eliminate those elements that need it. Just like toenails that are too long, they will trip you and limit your mobility after awhile. October 24-31: This is a busy time energetically as the wave that was invisibly collecting power is now ready to explode onto the shore once more. If you are the wave, it is time to show up in your glory and creativity, proactively choosing a new view as you cross the point of no return. Many will need compassion during this time as they will feel lost, and possibly feel loss as well. Hold them in compassion without taking on their confusion. Trust in spirit and in the greater plan. The small mind has no idea what the new view looks like. The larger mind of spirit does. Your rudder in this turbulent ocean is your own anchor into your own intention, power and integrity. Be certain of your own turning point, face the new view and laugh out loud October 26: New Moon is at 1:57PM Mountain Daylight Time. Do something to anchor something new. Honor the greater Turning Point of the collective. Celebrate the ending of something old and the beginning of something new!

 

Full Moon and Equinox this week-end

A full moon is coming with the usual possibilities especially since it is right near the Equinox. I received the following email and thought I'd post it here as we can all use a little extra energy right now, I think. For whatever reason I have been feeling a lot of pressure. I hope this will be a positive time. The world sure needs it.

**********************************************

Dear Friends,

The Full Moon is Saturday, March 19 at 12:10 PM (noon) Mountain Daylight Time. This is a super moon with strong energies and very close to the earth. If you can possibly be around a power spot during this moon it would be a benefit. However, you can take advantage of the amazing energies wherever you are. Being so close to the spring equinox, this full moon signifies change and opportunity.

Pay attention to any opportunity that has landed your way. If it has come easily perhaps you are prepared to act on it especially if it feels right. This is the time for a bid for power. Know that the planet is different. Our footing has shifted and quite literally. Symbolized by the reactor issue, we are being challenged to manage our own power, overcome our fears and step into a new paradigm. There will always be loss connected with change. Always look to the opportunity rather than what is no longer available. Trust the larger picture and greater design of evolution and know that spirit does not make mistakes.

The Spring Equinox is Sunday, March 20 at 5:21 PM Mountain Daylight Time. Do something to honor the fire element this month. Burn something old that represents not only what you wish to give over from the past few months or weeks, but something from your childhood or from your youth that represents very powerfully an identity of yours that is past.

This would also be a great time to identify something you are still attached to and either symbolically or actually burn it. Fire is purifying and signifies complete change and transformation. Fire is also the masculine counterpart to the feminine power of water. Both of these elements are strong this year and should be honored as representing the masculine and the feminine within ourselves. Use them, honor them, and thank them.

Blessings,

Lena

ASTROLOGICAL NOTES:
Written by Patricia A. Liles. PATLILES@aol.com
Virgo Full Moon opposite Pisces Sun 28º Saturday, March 19 12:10 PM MDT
Vernal Equinox, Sunday, March 20, 5:21 PM MDT Sun enters Aries, 1º, First day of Spring

Look to this Full Moon and Spring Equinox as an opportunity to experience a portal of intense power, strength and beauty. Much learning, shift and rebirthing can take place in this time frame. The Full Moon preceding the Equinox by less than a day is preparatory and supports intensified emotional involvement and awareness.

Because the Moon is full at 28º late in the sign, we will begin to feel the build up of energy when the Moon shifts into Virgo Thursday afternoon at 2:53 PM MDT. You will feel the intensity viscerally and your awareness of a much larger perspective will come with greater clarity. Added weight is given to this second of six SuperMoons of the year. Added weight in that this SuperMoon is the closest the Moon will be to the Earth (perigee) of all six. °Not until November 2016 will the Moon be this close to Earth. The additional magnetic pull on the Earth affects the globe's waters with extreme tides along the coasts. We too are made primarily of water and experience the concentration and pulling on our psyches.

Towards what are we being pulled? The Full Moon chart points this out clearly. The Sun at 28º Pisces is opposing this exceptional Moon at 28º Virgo, and this Sun/Moon axis squares the North and South Node axis forming a mutable Grand Cross. The North Node represents our point of spiritual growth and learning, where we are drawn to evolve.

In this chart the North Node is exactly aligned with the Galactic Center at 27º Sagittarius. The portal points us in the direction of opening emotionally, through our hearts, to an energetic alignment with that pulsing, conscious center of our galaxy availing ourselves to the energies that are evolving our planet at break-neck speed.

If we are aware of this opportunity and make a sacred space and allow time to clearly receive its download, we can be gifted with a general re-set of our entire energetic systems - something we need frequently at this time! (Read more! link here).

POWER PATH-- NEW MOON UPDATE

New Moon is Tuesday, February 2 at 7:32 PM Mountain Time.

Commit to your own eccentricity. Commit to your own personal healing of whatever needs to be healed. You do not need to know how or even what. A total commitment is enough to get the quantum field mobilizing in that direction. There is a wonderful opportunity at this new moon to heal disappointments of the past. Make a list of all of your disappointed expectations and commit to their release and to your healing. Commit to staying out of fear. Commit to moving forward. Commit to what's important. Commit to yourself.

Note: This is also Chinese New Year Day, the Year of the Metal Rabbit. Rabbits are fertile, resourceful survivors. The metal aspect makes them aggressively so.

Blessings,

Lena

Aquarius New Moon, Wednesday, Feb. 2, 2011
7:31 PM MST, Sun and Moon at 13º Aquarius

Aquarius evolves out of the practical power of the previous Earth sign, Capricorn. This inspirational, fixed air sign moves us out of the perfection, organization and authority of the physical realms of earth manifestation and into the element of air and relationship. The culmination of the gifts of the other air signs ~ mental intelligence and expression (Gemini) and harmony of personal relationships (Libra) is manifested by Aquarius at the universal level as cooperation within the group bound by a common ideal and dedicated to the good of all.
