what lies ahead-- maybe

PREDICTIONS FROM 2017 - 2027 by Tucson astrologer Stephanie St. Claire
(Written March 7, 2017)

The next ten years will be transforming in every way for everyone on the planet.  We are
in a MAJOR shift which has never before happened.  All the systems and ways of life, as
we know it, will undergo massive changes.  Because of this, I can NO longer do yearly 
predictions.  Any of the changes, which are about to unfold, can happen at any time in any 
of these next 10 years.  What I do know is that by the year 2027 life on earth will look very 
different.

The best advice I can give everyone is as follows:

1. Have NO indebtedness - owe nothing to anyone.
2. Stay TOTALLY out of fear and completely trust your inner guidance at all times;
have faith that you are ALWAYS safe, divinely protected and in the right place
at the right time.
3. Take responsibility for all of your choices - don't blame anyone or anything.
4. Take TOTAL responsibility for your own health, well being and what food you 
choose to put into your body.
5. Stay grounded in your body at all times.  Purchase a grounding sheet and/or
shoes (www.earthing.com).  WALK outside in nature every day if possible.
6. Stay away from cell phones and electronics as much as possible.  Do NOT
surf the internet. Limit or eliminate your use of social media.
7.  Do research through books and magazines and NOT on the internet.
8. Stock up on major necessities in case the grid goes down.  Have some back
up food as well.
9. Learn how to grow food and preserve it.
      10. Limit your news, television and movie watching.  Most of the news is fake.
      11. Do NOT zone out.  When you do, you're open to getting negative entities 
attached to you. Always stay in the present moment, stay focused on what
you're doing, and be mindful.
      12. Be very careful who you associate with and what places you go.
      13. Let go of everyone who NO LONGER is supportive of you nor is a positive 
influence in your life.  
      14. Let go of everything you no longer need or want.  Clean house and simplify
your life.
      15. Think carefully about where you are living.  It might be time to leave the area
and re-locate.
……………………………………………...
SOME OF THE FOLLOWING PREDICTIONS ARE FOR THE ENTIRE 
WORLD AND NOT JUST THE UNITED STATES

Expect MAJOR financial collapses starting most likely in September
or October of this year which will be continuing.  This includes
major bank closings as well as other financial institutions shutting
their doors as well.  This could happen at any time from now until 
September and throughout the next 10 years.

It is critical that each of you look at where your monies, pensions, 
savings, stocks, etc. are invested.  It would be wise to divest and
consider investing in metals, cash, land etc.  Many monies that 
people have counted on will disappear in a flash.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton will be "taken out" at some point,
and "The Donald" will NOT continue as President.  It is likely that
no one we now know will continue on as President of the US.

The political scene will be filled with many, many dark secrets and
scandals that have been going on and hidden for centuries that
will finally be revealed. They will be shocking and earth shattering 
to most people especially those involving children.

The corruption, deception, and lying by the leaders of the world,
including religious leaders, as well as sports and entertainment 
figures, will begin to be exposed at a very rapid rate as people are 
shocked into the reality of what they've believed, valued and 
accepted over the millennia.

People will begin to recognize that many famous people do not look like
themselves anymore.  That's not because of plastic surgery but
because they've been replaced.  You will need to research this
subject to understand it further.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been slowly taking over our world.  Think 
of what happens when you call any major corporation……all the
phone transferring is to automatic AI "people".  Eventually, 
Artificial Intelligence will be running Smart Cities in the US and
all over the world.

Corporations will continue to merge so that there will be only a few
corporations running the world.  Many companies and businesses
will fold and go out of business. 

Prices of food and all items will increase substantially and the availability
of everything will decrease a great deal as well.

Be very careful when flying anywhere.  Travel is slowly being fazed out
as it will become more and more difficult to go anywhere.  Within
a couple of years, everyone will need to have a special ID or passport
just to fly between the states in the US.

More and more of our rights, here in the US, are being taken away.  Few
people seem to care or even notice.  As many of you already know,
everything we do and say is tracked and recorded.

Many people do not listen nor read anymore.  In addition, many people 
cannot think or focus as well and are in a state of confusion.  Instead 
people are busy on their cell phones, texting, surfing the internet and 
so forth.  Did you know that ALL CELL PHONES are programmed to 
the "love and addictive centers" of the brain????  Furthermore, all
cell phones, laptops and other electronics microwave our bodies
destroying our cells and organs.

Many, many people will lose their jobs.  For survival, it is extremely
important that people have skill sets that can be used (sewing,
gardening, repairing things, etc.) in a practical way.  It is important
to be self-sufficient and to work for yourselves rather than be
employed by others as jobs dry up and are not available anymore.

There will be many more extreme weather events including earthquakes,
volcanos, tornadoes and other geological phenomena.  Many people
will die from these events.  It's advisable NOT to live near major
bodies of water, along fault lines and other potentially disrupting
areas.  You might want to consider re-locating to a safer area.  The
time to make changes is at hand.  In a few years, that window will
close and not be available.

There is a strong possibility of war (not nuclear), and of ETs appearing in 
the sky (most likely they will be holograms but could be real as well). 
It's very hard to tell the "real" thing. Holograms look exactly like
real people and events. 

Many, many people will get very sick and leave their bodies as the years
go forth.  There will be a dramatic increase in illness and confusion
over these next ten years.  Many will depart because of the shock
of financial events taking place as well.

You can expect major problems with the grids in place all over the world,
electrical and other old systems created and put into place many
years ago.  That includes roads, bridges, lighting etc.

There will be many angry people who take to the streets with guns and
other weapons in protest.  Do NOT get involved in any of this activity.

Many adult children and grandchildren will be moving back to live with
their parents and/ or other relatives.

……………………………………..

In conclusion, all of this sounds very scary, I know.  However, we've needed major changes
on earth for a very long time.  The corruption and deception need to be exposed and, generally,
things really need to change so this time should be viewed as exciting and very interesting.

You can EASILY learn to be in a stable, calm and good place, without any fear, by attending
classes (such as the one I teach)…..classes on skill developing, meditation (I teach this as
well), by reading books and by taking advantage of all the wonderful knowledge available to
us nowadays.  The libraries, videos, DVDs and so forth provide a wealth of information to 
guide us all.

Hunter's Moon October 8

Hunter's or Blood moon-- 

The full moon is approaching, and the full moon is always three evenings. Tuesday evening is the first eve, and then the fullest night, Wednesday 08 October is the fullest. It is the hunter's moon, because in native Shamanic tradition it is the moon by which the men would see by when hunting and also harvesting food for the tribe. It is also known as the blood moon full moon lunar eclipse. It is a red or blood full moon lunar eclipse and its meaning is that of the bleeding of all that no longer serves us to bring about healing and pure seeing, just like when we as women have our moon time (menses) it is a cleansing and purifying and in native Shamanic tradition the mystics and seers of the tribe when in their moon time would go into the special teepee and bleed into Mother Earth cleansing and purifying herself and the earth and then receive the wisdom in clear seeing of vision from Source, and the tribe would have ritual dance around the sacred fires to bring this new vision into fruition, so too will it be for this blood full moon and lunar eclipse. May this full moon cleanse you, heal you, and bring forth the new vision for your life-- Nenari Diamondlady from Facebook 

~~~~~~


This is truly an intense and possibly highly emotional time that will trigger and push everything to the edge and beyond. Instead of retreating or freezing up in fear and terror, go out and become part of the storm. Harness the tremendous energy that has the potential to feed your creativity and dreams in ways you could never have imagined. 

Stay away from drama that is not yours, as there will be some out there that react to this level of energy by projecting it into negativity and fear. Keep your frequency high and always turn your focus towards the truth of what works for you. 

This full moon and eclipse triggers a two week time frame of revolutionary intensity that can either propel you into radical transformation or have you falling off the three-legged stool. Your ability to pay attention, and to stay focused and present while also allowing yourself to grab the power of the storm, will be key to staying firmly on the stool.         Patricia Liles

a message from Stephanie

Once in awhile I get an email from a psychic acquaintance in Tucson. I don't always know that I agree with all of what I read but I like to pass along some of it just so others can make up their own minds. The following comes under that category. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Hello Everyone.......I've been debating with myself as to whether I should send out an email about some information I'm aware of, that I feel is important enough for me to write this email, and have finally elected to do just that. I am sending this email to some people who are not on my email list because I feel the information is that important. 

The sources of this information are very accurate and are rarely in error.......Cosmic Awareness (cosmicawareness.org), and it's interpreter, Will Berlinghof (rainbowphoenix.com), the Pleiadians (pleiadians.com) as well as my very own Spirit team. I can assure you this information is NOT on the mainstream news, and if it is, most of it is false. 

The first bit of information concerns the radiation from the Fukushima nuclear facility in Japan. It's very, very bad and has now reached the entire west coast from Alaska, Canada and down to Mexico. Much debris is now clearly washing up in these areas including many dead sea life. I love fish, especially wild salmon caught in remote areas of Alaska, and tuna, which I've mainly purchased from Wild Planet and Vital Choice which test their products for mercury and so forth and are an impeccable source. 

However, my Spirit team has told me the last few weeks not to eat fish anymore. There is too much radiation in all sea life! And that goes for all fish that are farm raised as well. With oil spills and other toxic poisons, it's just not safe to eat any of it. 

In addition, there's a high probability of many areas being evacuated in the Pacific (including large portions of Japan) and along the entire western coastal areas in the next few years as many people become very sick. 

As many of you already know, earth's waters are in pretty bad shape as are our food sources are as well. Much of the US's produce is genetically modified (GMO) and not fit to eat. How many of you know that all corn except organic corn seeds are GMOs. 

For more information on GMO produce and food, a very good source is Melissa Diane Smith (melissadianesmith.com), who has written extensively on this subject. From Melissa's website, there are links to lists of products and companies that either support and/or produce GMO products. In fact, almost all wheat, canola oil, corn and many other products are exclusively GMO products unless it is certified organic. We have Monsanto to thank for all these GMO seeds and produce. 

If you're interested, several times a year, there are a large group of people marching against Monsanto here in Tucson. In fact, I've seen signs around town for another march coming up soon. Whole Foods and New Life Health Centers have products specifically marked NON-GMO. 

My advice is to buy only organic produce and products marked ORGANIC whenever possible. We are truly blessed to have a wide range of Farmer's Markets here in Tucson. All the products at the Heirloom Farmer's Markets (heirloomfm.com) are organic as are several others. I bless these farmers who toil endlessly to ensure that we have real food! 

Furthermore, in addition to these concerns most of you are aware of the chemtrails that are sprayed almost daily in our skies. They are loaded with toxins and poisons of all kind. These chemtrails are being sprayed continually all over the world. Is it a wonder so many people and animals are sick? 

The best way to stay healthy is to make sure your immune systems is strong and that you run a grounding cord from your body into the earth helping to keep you grounded. Just visualize big golden cords running from under your feet, attached to a huge anchor, and drop it into the middle of the earth. It's good to do this visualization several times a day. It really helps. 

To counterbalance the radiation, take Iodine. There are many places to buy this product. I buy my minerals from Water Oz (wateroz.com) and order many bottles of Iodine at one time. Be sure to take minerals.....I find most people are really lacking in minerals and not vitamins as much. 

REMEMBER: Each one of you is responsible for your own health so be sure you become informed as to what you put into your body. 

The second subject I wish to discuss is the possibility of some VERY MAJOR events occurring starting from approximately July 15th and forward.........most likely they will be earth changes of some kind such as earthquakes, volcanos and so forth. There could be some political and/or economic changes of some kind as well. I'm not sure. What I am sure of is that our world is very unstable; in fact, many people are highly unstable at this time as many things are falling apart! 

I've long predicted and said this type of thing was coming........in January 2009, the planet Pluto went into the sign of Capricorn where it will be for approximately 18-20 years. That was the beginning of the breakdown of all structures and ways of life as we know it. In my predictions for this year (posted on my website), I specifically warned about difficulty in the US for 2014 and 2015 as Pluto is exactly opposite the Sun Sign of Cancer in the United States' birth chart (July 4, 1776). 

For those of you who are sensitive, you can feel the heaviness of energy permeating earth. Sometimes it's so heavy, I can barely function and have to lie down and nap for a while. 

There's much more I could say, but I don't wish to do so at this time. I felt a strong responsibility to at least send out this email so that each of you can be aware. 

I want to remind you all that no matter what happens you need to be in a place of KNOWING and FEELING that all is well in your world and that things ALWAYS unfold in your favor easily and effortlessly. The stronger you KNOW and FEEL this, the stronger you create grace in your life.

April 20-24

well, you never know, do you? Never hurts to be positive in relationships and life even if these kind of astrological indicators don't turn out to offer quite what they say...


Between April 20 and 24, be ready to experience one of the most powerful astrological events in years. It’s alternately called the “Cardinal Grand Cross” or the “Grand Cardinal Cross”. But what matters much more than terminology is the exceptionally potent energy that will be pushed through our world as this aspect converges. It’s as if we’re all being forced through the most intense crucible of our lives at the same time. Prepare to transform!
With planetary players Pluto, Uranus, Mars and Jupiter all lined up in the formation of a cross during these few days, events will come to a fever pitch -- both personally and collectively. It’s not possible for us to have control over geopolitics, but in our intimate lives and relationships, we need to know how to make the right choices.

The most important thing to remember as this moment arrives is that you’re at a pivotal crossroads. You can make a choice that will deepen and enhance the relationship(s) that mean the most to you -- or you can break them apart by acting rashly and immaturely.

Here is the lay of the land: Mars is retrograde in Libra (the sign of relationships) and Pluto (the planet of karma) is in a challenging square to it. At the same time, Uranus is charging the whole setup with unlimited (and sometimes shocking) electricity; the only thing you can expect is the unexpected.

Jupiter takes all of this energy to the next level and blows it way out of proportion. With its current placement in Cancer, all relationships lead back down the road to your early childhood. The wounds and abandonment issues that you experienced when you were young are now coming up for review.

Even as that happens, it’s important to let the emotion flow, without blaming or being reactive. You’re getting down to the baseline truth -- what really matters. The relationships that will survive this moment are the ones you’re meant to be in. Holding tighter to toxic, unhealthy bonds will only hurt you in the end. If you’re willing to face your past and move on into a better future, the right relationship will show up at exactly the right time.

It may not be over; it may just be time for a breakthrough. Listen, don’t overreact and -- most of all -- love yourself.

Astrology for 2014

Stephanie sent out her predictions for 2014. I don't do anything based on planetary influences as is claimed by astrologers-- on the other hand, I am always interested in what is going on and what another claims it might mean.
************
This has been a most intense year for everyone so far and it looks like it's
going to stay that way.  I've been attempting to write these predictions since January 1st, 
and it's already the middle of February!!  It's taken me quite a few weeks to put this information together.

Actually, I haven't written predictions since January of 2011.   At that time, I told everyone 
to watch out for March 11, 2011.  That's the exact day  when the tsunami/Fukushima disaster occurred. This email will be VERY LONG and divided up into several categories.  In addition, it will be posted on my website for the year should you or anyone else wish to look at it again.

EARTH'S PROFILE FOR 2014
From Jose and Lena Stevens Of The Power Path

The theme of the year is strongest the first 9/10 months and wanes toward the end of the year before another theme begins to take hold and influence the next year.  This profile is based on the Michael Material which I've taught in my classes for 30+ years.

This year's role is a Warrior with Scholar Casting meaning it's an ACTION oriented year. There could be much debating about a lot of issues, a combative year, much conflict, bluntness and truthfulness.  It's a year to cut through confusion and chaos.  For 2,000
years now, earth has been in the warrior/masculine energy cycle with a very narrow focus. This cycle has ended and we're now moving into the next larger cycle.

In this transiting cycle, we're working on moving these warrior patterns into another
framework that is softer and more feminine in nature.  To help earth transition into this
cycle, the scholar casting will help us to embody this shift......more contemplation, study,
more pursit of wisdom, philosophy and understanding of larger cycles.

The goal this year is ACCEPTANCE.  We can no longer ignore issues both personal and
collective.  We MUST learn to accept things we might not want to accept accepting
everything that comes before each of us.  The thinking should go like this:  "I created
this lesson for myself, so it's like ME ACCEPTING ME."  

The big question everyone will be asking is CAN I ACCEPT MASSIVE CHANGE ON THE PLANET?  People will no longer be able to hang onto the old way of doing things.  We must step out in a bigger way than we've ever had to before.  The role of Warrior loves a challenge, so essentially it's about "ruthless acceptance, time to accept ourselves, our lives and other people........more than we've ever had to before."  There will be difficult things that you might have to accept this year.  However, this presents HUGE possibilities for the year, a potentially very wonderful prospect!

The mode (the way we achieve the goal) is through OBSERVATION.  Observation is the single most powerful tool at our disposal....witnessing our lives and other's lives as 
life goes on.  So, the message is to observe and keep going much like our essence (soul)
does.  Observation is the single most powerful thing innate within humans.  If we are
truly observing, then we are less identified with pain, suffering, and drama.  It is
important that we learn to distant ourselves from it all, from our own life to those of
others.  What do you notice when you observe yourself and others?  What happens,
of course, is CLARITY.

The attitude is SKEPTIC & IDEALIST with skeptic reining supreme in the first part of
the year with it sliding to idealist later on.  A skeptic is a person who goes through life
investigating.......wanting to know the truth (journalists and detectives fall nicely into
this category).....it requires the use of the intellect.  There will be a tendency to doubt
yourself and other people, including leaders of countries, the banking system, the
economy, so that we learn.  It leads us to change.  Use it to make changes in your life
and society in general.

Later in the year when idealism kicks in people will become more optimistic at times
leading to being more naive than not.  The tone is approaching a time similar to the
1960s when "flower power and peace" reigned supreme for those of us living during
those times.  It will give us a glimpse as to what's coming but not as fast as we might
want.  

Going back and forth between skeptic/idealist will create endless arguments between
people about whose way is right leading to a waste of much time.

The obstacle (our challenges for the year) are three different ones with one predominating. Usually there is only one obstacle per year so this is another case of sliding back and forth like skeptic/idealist.  This year it is SELF-DESTRUCTION predominantly , SELF-DEPRECATION and ARROGANCE secondarily.  

Self-Destruction indicates, as we've already seen, agendas that are very destructive
behaviors toward the environment and in many other ways.  The old ways of blaming others will not work any more.........if people continue doing that then it will take a very long, long time to resolve issues on the planet.  If we the people take responsibility and do something constructive we will make huge changes very quickly.  We've already wasted a great deal of time on this planet.

Self-Deprecation and Arrogance work together.  There is a tendency to put one's self down, to be self-critical which comes from low self-esteem as does arrogance.  In arrogance the feeling of being worthless is still there but one tries to distract people from noticing the lack of self-esteem so that we won't notice the mistakes they make.  Obviously, the majority of the planet has self-worth problems, approximately 95% in fact.

With these obstacles clearly in place, a lot of "stuff" that's hidden in the subconscious
will be coming up to deal with which will cause people to either run from it or think they're disgusting, that sort of thing.  Instead, everyone needs to take the third option which is to OBSERVE.  Instead one should detach and think "Oh, look at that"  Transformation takes place when one is able to look at behaviors without judging them which is self-healing. This is a very powerful year for self-healing, purging, cleaning out within one's self.  It's not a comfortable place for most people but very rewarding and freeing in the end.

The centering this year is EMOTIONAL which operates as a fast processor whereas 
intellectual and moving centers are very slow processors.  When it's allowed to move
energy, it knows best how to get rid of it much quicker.  The old paradigm was more
linear and analyzing.  Warriors, generally, are very linear and are not comfortable being
in the emotional center.  

So, this year of the warrior, it's important to find its heart.  Warrior energy is related
to the third chakra, the solar plexis whereas the heart energy is more scholarly in nature
helping us to assimilate what we've learned.  One must learn to forgive which is through
the heart center.  When being in the emotional center, it allows one to move through
things in a much quicker way without having to understand anything which is rather
tricky for those who need a manual to figure things out.  

In other words, this year is about making choices based on intuition and trust rather
than having details in place.  It allows the heart to lead instead of the head which can
lead to the higher emotional center of joy, bliss and feeling so very good.  Very much
like the 1960s wanting to be connected to the beauty of art, love, and music.  It's
what gives us hope and feeling there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

A secondary influence will be the instinctive center which holds all the information
along the lines of time.......where all the fears live.   When issues begin to arise, it will
be  coming from the instinctive center which could last 4 or 5 days at a time.  When
that happens, move into the observation mode which will help you to begin to change
your relationship with a lot of your past history......re-imprint future history as well.
Don't get freaked out.  Recognize that it is a deep healing.  It might cause one feel
that they might not be able to function......it will pass.

The NEEDS for the year are SECURITY, EXPANSION, EXPRESSION.  When times are
changing rapidly, it's easy to feel security is being threatened.  The instinctive center
becomes afraid and wants to do what has worked in the past.  However, we're moving
into the future, not the past.  The only security we actually have is our spiritual path.
Everything else is insecure.

Expansion is the need for everyone to start looking at the whole world, not just where
we live or the United States.  Expansion can relate to anything, weight gain, more
money, a great deal of whatever.  It's important that we look at the big picture and
expand our view of everything.

Expression, other than in just words, will mean a boost in the arts, an appreciation
of beauty and esthetic qualities.  The arts usually blossom when the world is 
distressed.

The ELEMENT for this year is EARTH.  There will be discoveries, activities  and
movement of the earth.  Discovery of what the earth really is......minerals we don't
know of, our relationship with the earth, taking responsibility of what we're doing
to the earth.  There will be an increase in  earthquakes and volcanoes.

So, generally the theme for the year is to WAKE UP both personally and collectively.

ASTROLOGICAL HAPPENINGS - A HEAVY DUTY YEAR 2014
By Stephanie St. Claire

As this year progresses, it is seen that all of the planets which can retrograde will
indeed be doing just that.  When planets retrograde, they appear to be moving 
backwards.  Every year the outer planets (Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, Jupiter and Uranus) 
are retrograde at least once a year.  Venus and Mars, however, retrograde infrequently.
This year Venus was retrograde from last December until the end of January.  Presently,  Mercury is retrograde.  I will list all of the retrogrades in a bit.

You might be asking what does it mean when planets go retrograde.  Well, most of you
are familiar with Mercury retrograde, when communications and travel go asunder.
Generally, when planets retrograde, it SLOWS THINGS DOWN, way down!  It gives us
time to re-visit and look at issues that haven't been resolved and gives us time to
re-think and make positive changes.

RETROGRADE PLANETS THIS YEAR 

Mercury Retrograde - this planet retrogrades three times a year, every year, for three
weeks at a time.  What is important to remember when Mercury goes retrograde is that
communication and travel can be disrupted.  Remember, communication includes all
electronics and most technology.  It's NEVER a good time to sign important documents
unless you have no choice.  If there is no choice in the matter, prayer and positive
affirmations do a lot to neutralize the negative effects.

Dates of Mercury Retrograde

February 6 - 28th (7:00 AM MST)
June 7 (4:57 AM PDT) - July 1 (5:50 AM PDT)
October 4 (10:02 AM PDT) - October 25 (12:17 PM PDT)

Mars Retrograde - this planet retrogrades every two years.  However, this year Mars
will be in retrograde motion longer than usual.  Mars is the planet of energy, action and
doing.  This year there is a very unusual happening in the sky which I will get to shortly,
and Mars is one of the players in this drama.  You must be VERY CAREFUL with the
choices that you make.  Be careful of starting anything new.  Be careful of purchasing
new cars or other machinery because they could malfunction.  Generally anything made
during a Mars retrograde period can often turn out to be a lemon!

Dates of Mars Retrograde

March 1(9:24 AM MST) - May 19 (6:31 PM PDT)

Jupiter Direct/Retrograde - Jupiter started the year retrograde on January 1st.  It
will turn DIRECT (it's regular motion) on March 6 at 3:42 AM MST.  It will turn retrograde
in the sign of Leo (it's presently in Cancer) on December 8 at 1:41 PM MST.  Jupiter is the 
planet of expansion and good fortune and is direct most of the year starting on March 6th.

Saturn Retrograde -  Saturn is the taskmaster of all the planets.  It provides structure,
brings things to us, compels us to look at situations in our lives that need dealing with
and an all around "fatherly" influence.  When it is in retrograde motion, we have the 
opportunity to slowly re-visit and re-sort through our issues/problems/situations and to 
make positive changes.    Saturn will be in retrograde motion from:

March 2 at 9:19 AM MST - July 20 at 1:36 PM PDT

Uranus Retrograde - Uranus is the planet of sudden, unexpected happenings.  It is 
volatile in nature and highly unpredictable.  It's currently in a direct motion which is to
our advantage at this time.  It goes retrograde from July 21at 7:53 PM PDT and
goes direct on December 21 at 3:45 PM MST.

Neptune Retrograde - Neptune is like holding the element mercury in our hands.  You
can't grasp it.  Many people are in a Neptunian fog nowadays, dazed and confused.
On the positive side, neptune has to do with the arts, psychic development, intuition,
and creativity.  On the negative side, it relates to drugs, alcohol and addictions of all
kinds.  Neptune is currently direct but retrogrades on June 9 at 12:51 PM PDT and
goes direct on November 16 at 12:06 AM MST.

Pluto Retrograde - Pluto is the most powerful planet in our solar system.  It has to
do with power; that is, personal power and power over others.  It transforms wherever
it is.  In January of 2009, Pluto entered the sign of Capricorn beginning the cycle of
the breakdown or dismantling of structures as we know them.  We are currently in that 
cycle for many years.  Pluto tends to stay in a sign for anywhere from 18-20 years at a 
time.  When it does it's thing, so to speak, the good news is that it restructures everything, 
sort of like the Phoenix rising from the ashes.  It tends to create a whole new paradigm.  

Pluto is currently direct but begins its retrograde cycle starting on April 14 at 4:44 PM 
PDT and goes direct on September 22 at 5:34 PM PDT.  It's significant that it starts its
retrograde cycle on April 14th.  See comments below.

THE GRAND CROSS AND IT'S SIGNIFICANCE

This April of 2014 will most likely prove to be an incredible month on our planet most
especially the United States.  A most unusual occurrence will be taking place, a grand
cross, hitting the US astrological chart with a 2 by 4!

In the US chart, there are many planets in the sign of Cancer (July 4, 1776), with
Saturn in Libra and Pluto in the sign it's in now, Capricorn.

A grand cross is when there is a planet or planets in either all four mutable signs,
all four fixed signs or in the case of the US chart, all four cardinal signs (Cancer,
Capricorn, Libra and Aries).  This formation looks like a cross and when planets line
up in all four signs, it's called a Grand Cross.

A grand cross is VERY STRESSFUL as all the planets are either 90 or 180 degrees
apart forming the most difficult energetic in astrology.  To make matters worse, the
planets involved are some of the most difficult energies imaginable.  The planet
Uranus is in Aries with the planet Mars exactly opposite it in Libra.  Forming the 
90 degrees from those two planets is Pluto in Capricorn with Jupiter opposite it in
Cancer, hence a Grand Cross.  

This planetary lineup of these four planets are in the exact degrees opposite and 
square to each other, hitting the US Charts head on, the Sun at 13 degrees of Cancer
and Saturn at 14 degrees of Libra.  

Whenever the planets Mars and Uranus are in difficult aspect to each other, all hell
could break loose.  They are two of the most volatile planets in astrology.  There could
be explosions, riots, volcanic and earthquake eruptions, and just about anything you
could imagine including a potential HUGE financial disruption or collapse.

These planets start to move into position the beginning of April but are really heavy
duty by the middle of April and on APRIL 20 all four planets are exactly at 14 degrees!!
They are exact for three days straight, APRIL 20, 21 and 22!  This intensity lasts for
about a week total from April 17 - 25th.
 
COMMENTS ABOUT ALL OF THIS

This year begins a very intense cycle of change for the United States.  As you can tell
from everything I've said so far in this email, all of us will be challenged both personally,
professionally and collectively both in the US and the world. 

If we remember to detach and stay in observation, watching ourselves and all that
transpires on the planet, we will be able to make good decisions for ourselves and our
loved ones.  During the spring and summer, be careful, go slowly, evaluate carefully
before making decisions and you will be just fine.  Affirm everyday that "you are always
in the right place at the right time" and that "things always turn out better than you
ever expected".

As a concluding note, I strongly suggest that you "LAY LOW" during the month of April.  I would not fly anywhere, I would stay close to home, and be quiet and introspective.  It's NOT a time to take action!

That said, let's use the strong astrological line ups and intensity on the planet in the
most creative and positive ways possible.  Use this time to breakthrough any rigid and
set patterns in your life.  It could be a truly exhilarating time for all.

May blessing be yours for the rest of 2014!  Stephanie
