Own Your Saturn and Take Control of your Future

When you decide to "own your own Saturn" you really are deciding to take responsibility for your own life. You become free for the very first time in your life. The opinions of the world view with all of its differences, control mechanisms, and judgements, no longer holds any power over you, finally without censor you can march, or dance, if you will, to the beat of your very own drummer, which is of course, your heart.
Death must come to the old way of thinking and being before the rebirth of the new through conscious decisions can take place. This is where it can get a little tricky. You must ask yourself some very serious questions about what "you" really want to have in your life, as well as whom. You must be very clear about these answers. Pay close attention to the details. You may be surprised by some of what you find, perhaps all of what you find may come as an epiphany. If it does, be happy about that, let go of what you don't need, in this I mean all of that superficial "fluff stuff" that is someone else's idea of who and what you are, and therefore has absolutely nothing to do with you.Their expectations are none of your business. It is a brutal clearing away, and you must be ruthless, after all it is your life that you are living, isn't it?
There must be a transformation in the way that you deal with intimate relationships, emphasis is on the metamorphose of your own personal inner most thoughts, actions, feelings, motivations, creations, and how they not only effect you and the world around you, but also, and this is probably the most important thing, how they are actually working with and for you in the physical world. You will find that there are some that it is just time to give up on, letting go allows you to move forward in ways that you cannot even imagine. A previously cherished structure or structures having to do with the way you relate to authority figures (or the Father/Mother image in general) may have to be challenged as to its authenticity, or its basic reasoning for being a part of the world that you live in now. Sometimes we carry things from the past that have outlived their time, letting them go brings an amazing surge of energy and power. This will give you the stability that you need in a new way to take charge of you own life with no regrets, and no looking back, closing the door firmly on things that are no longer working for you.
You will also be more in tune with the vibrational flow of others, their thought processes, (through the basic details that once were missed) will now become transparent to you. This should give you the gift of empathy. Please, do not allow yourself to buy into that ego trip of "savior/victim" it is a huge pit of quick sand that can and will drain you of all of your most valuable resources almost immediately. Yes, it can seem as if you are energized, momentary, think about it, you know this trip, recognize it for what it really is, a distraction, and move on, say thank you, but "NO", if you really must. It is better to just smile benignly and move on without losing a step in the action that you are trying to create. Compassion is a great gift it gives an "opening of the ways" which allows the good feelings to flow in.
This is a good time to plan for the future, and re-evaluate your life's goals, with full faith in their ultimate success because you now have the determination, and the energy to focus and follow through on your plans making your dreams a reality by balancing equally all of your resources toward your goals. Opportunity knocks and contacts need to be followed through on. Do not procrastinate, remember all of the stories with the basic "pray and get a shovel" theme. You must do the work in order to be successful.

New Moon/ Partial Eclipse/Virgo

"The thorn trees have no grief or fear. The constellations don't fight or hold

themselves back, nor does the orbiting Moon in it's magnetized state, moving

around it's twin soul. the Earth, worry about the separating factor.

Everything is momentary, and endless, time, a man-made concept anyway,

fades away, and yet its memory lasts forever.

Dissolving mountains, made from the explosions that have made flat land

and craters, out of the evolving world, creating dust that over "time"

turns into sand, and then into rich loam, that causes the growth of forests, and

then magnificent plant life, all in its own sequence of nature.

Yet, we the so called "Care takers" of this "Turtle Island" create dramas to

avoid the changes that are meant to be, delaying the inevitability, of our own

as well as others processes within the natural world, that knows so much more

than we do. 

Would it not be so much easier to follow our own nature, with its ebb and flow,

and stop worrying about the direction a thought will go in, or an inclination. 

Who has the privilege of knowing what is possible or the burden of it all, for that

matter?

We never really "leave" anything behind, not really, it just finishes with us, and

then it seeps away so slowly that its movement is imperceptible. 

Going without pain or recognition of leaving us, or our abandoning it, simply

because it is neither, so much as it is all just simply done, as the karmic

link that may or may not be a part of its presence.

Our lives changed forever because of our very acceptance and surrender.

Perhaps, that is our greatest fear? 

That of vanishing, without ever having been recognized or acknowledged.

While we instead, become a merger, re-inventing who or what we are,

because of the experience, drawing from it, keeping what is needed for the

next part of the journey, while discarding the rest.

We do not disappear, we evolve, our lives turning in constant motion of

their orbital, tidal wave evolution, around the molten lava that is our true and

Natural Spirit, the one that animates this physical "spaceship" body that

carries it all, allowing us to function and interact within the realm of what is 

called reality.

We are the dream. 

You stand at the threshold of another great adventure, possibly the most

important segment of your life.

Soaring is an option. It will not just happen. You must act upon your own

"gut" feelings and intuitions. Not ruthlessly or egotistically, even when it

hurts to do so, or especially when we are asked to give all that we have to

give. 

"Freedom and unimaginable grace come in powerful ways, that demand

great acts of courage and unstoppable, insupportable faith.

Give it your best, and the tapestry that is woven from these ingredients

cannot help being your real life's work.

Love what you do with all of your heart and soul. Give it all that you've got,

giving your life over to it completely, becoming the essence of the dream

that you have only just imagined.

All you have to do is deliver.

There are things that we find only at the very depths of our lowest lows, these

things give us the courage to go on.

We owe it to ourselves and those who we come into contact with to learn

and know the why's and where fore's of what and why the reasoning is for our

being with them. 

The more questionable, brutal, unpredictable, the link is, the greater the lessons,

for it is through this very real abrasive quality that the greatest epiphanies of

our lives come to the light opening us up to the greatest void of darkness and

light that we will ever know.

We learn through direct contact with others, our nemesis' teach us the most,

for they are the mirror through which our darkest truths about ourselves

are revealed.

What are we hiding from? What is it that they are acting out, living out, in

blatantly, unappologetically, bold, living color, that we are not?

While we may not take that brazen venue, it is these 'in our face" kinds of

visuals that are our "saviors" if we are aware and open to it.

What are we holding back, holding in, in denial, about ourselves?

Look at the people around you that are your greatest frustrations, irritants,

aggravations, for the answers, for they are the "Lunar" side of ourselves,

speaking to us through the power of osmosis.

If we continue to be in denial about the power of these contacts to ultimately,

open us up, and change our worlds, we ignore the very real fact of our own

refusal to surrender to the "wild child" that is a necessary part of all of our

development, and in so doing we trap ourselves on "Groundhog" day with a 

series of "like" factors and experiences that try desperately to "wake us up"

forcing us to accept the changes necessary for our graduation to the next 

level.

What we love or hate the most, speaks volumes about the needs that we have

that are not being met, that would propel us into the future, and show us the

lessons of our reason for being.

Consider at the same time the theory of "polar solar" opposites. These attract

or repel according to where we are in our evolution. 

Compelling forces in the areas of movement and action. Power pin points of

behaviors concerning our real life objectives.

An example is necessary here: We will take an Aries person, the ram for an

instance, Aries is ruled by Mars, the red planet, the planet of direct action.

Movement is their middle name, followed by passionate interaction. Aries does

not give very much thought to what anyone else is doing, much less feeling or

thinking, they act first, ask questions later, (if at all) on the other hand in

the opposite direction there is Libra, ruled by Venus, the planet of love,

Libra is also action oriented, but how is that action different from Aries?

Libra's action is one of sharing and compromise, equal amounts of thoughtful

partnership and interaction with others. 

What can these two learn from each other? What is the balance?

Sometimes brute force and affirmative action, without question is a necessity,

of course.

Sometimes compromise and thoughtful consideration, careful planning are the

plan of the day, of course, however, in our day to day living world, more and more

frequently, it is the merger of these two energies that are the most dominant

force and not the division of them.

This is true of every sign and its polar/solar opposite. These are the partnership

houses, and we are here to learn from them.

What color is your rainbow?

I can help you with that, when ever you are ready to learn how, let me know.

Love and Lightning!

The Nature of the Truth

Full Moon in Pisces

"You don't have to be right all of the time, it's perfectly o.k. to be a little off kilter, dreamy, and to follow your 

heart to where ever it may lead you, just because it feels good to do it. This is how we discover the dream,

how to create it, and then manifest it into physical reality. I like to think of it as a colossal collage, set up on a 

huge drawing board dream scape with all of the tools and art work fully at my disposal, any thing is possible.

Of course that is is exactly what it is, the thing that amazes me is the fear that most people have of having 

dreams, yes, there are really people out there who limit themselves, even in their dream time, a lot of them,

yes, really.  I wonder why that is? Did you know that if you can't dream it you can't have it? How does that

make you feel? Competitive, I hope. Believe me, when I say that better alternatives are always available to

you that will allow all kinds of long term rewards that are most satisfying, short term, long term, momentary,

you are in control of how, when, what, where, and why. Is that what the problem is, are you afraid of being

in control of your own world or destination? Mind my asking exactly why that is, as well as when that type

of mind set came into being? Get rid of it, now. It is time to believe in you, because realistically, you are all

that you have unlimited access to, and that is way more than enough, you are limitless. There is a little catch

though, I can hear you now, saying; "Here we go, what's the catch? I knew this was coming!" You have to

believe that you are limitless in order to be limitless. You are the only one who can open those doors that

you have closed off, submerged, or petitioned for. Instant gratification; "We want what we want when we

want it!" Art, creativity, social functions, dancing, any of these are perfect vehicles to open up those doors

and windows of the Soul, as they all fulfill the senses, heighten the energy awareness factor, taking the 

thought and feeling nature to the next level of Spirit, which is action manifested in the physical world.

Playing hard, physically working the body, coordinating it with the mind-spirit-feeling nature, alleviates 

impatience, frustration, anger, the kind that causes 3-6 year old's to stamp their little feet or throw temper

tantrums, pouting, and sometimes fighting physically, or breaking things when they don't get their way. This

is self-evident in the now of today in the very adult world. "At any given moment we can all play the fool or

the genius." If we revert to madness in the moment instead of being the director, and producer of our own

life's focus and direction, we stop the flow of energy by this kind of reaction, we can divert it by being gentle 

with ourselves, and remembering that we all make mistakes, this is how we learn, grow, and ultimately come

to know who we are through our interaction with both ourselves and others, responsibly and intimately. This

does not "just happen" it has to be orchestrated, planned, and acted upon consciously moment by moment,

until it becomes as familiar to us as getting up in the morning and brushing our teeth or combing our hair. We

must get over the fear of the almost overwhelming desire to be perfect, (where does that  thought come from 

anyway?)  and acknowledge the fact that this particular situation does not actually exist. We can then relax 

into the moment, learning from what we once considered to be our ultimate humiliations or failings by 

turning them into strongly well built success stories. It all starts in the mind. The thoughts we have are always

the doorways into the future, without them or the dreams that we have because we allow them to run wild

at times, how on earth or otherwise, would we know where, what, when, or why, we were doing, going, or

wanting anything? It is always easier if we enter the center with an open mind, the possibilities are endless,

if we are ready and willing to act upon our gut feelings, instinctual nature, instead of trying to control them or

beat them into submission, because of obscure so called rationale that has absolutely no kind of value to us

long term or short term other than as basic control and manipulation tactics. Remember the dog in the cage?

Another good one by Alan Cohen is this story: A man comes home from work tired, all he wants to do is

sit in his chair, take his shoes off, and read the paper, when he comes in the door his five year old son meets

him at the door, smiling and excited to see his Daddy at home, the child asks; "Daddy, will you play with 

me?" The man is disheartened because he loves his son and does not want to disappoint him, hanging his

head he spies a picture of the world in the paper and has a brainstorm. Picking up the paper he tears out

the picture and tears it into pieces like a puzzle, he hands them to his son, smiling and making a game out

of it he tells him; "Take this in your room son, and put all the pieces back together again, come see me when

you're done." Enthusiastically the child takes the puzzle and goes to his room, the father settles down to read

his paper fully satisfied that he has served both of them well. In a short time the child comes back with the

page all in tact and glued together. The man is surprised by this and asks the child how he did it, to which 

the child responds, "Well, at first I just couldn't do it, it was too confusing, but then one of the papers fell

down and I saw a hand on the other side, so I turned all the papers over and saw a foot and then a head,

so I put those together and it made up a man."  The moral of this story is this, if you concentrate on the

person and not the whole world miracles happen. Remove the toxins, don't take yourself or others too

seriously, refuse to buy into the drama, keep it light, thereby allowing no misunderstandings to gather moss

so that they grow into anger or resentment. Stay focused on your dreams and aspirations, it is not necessary

to open your whole world up to anyone or anything that is not a part of your very intimate private world, 

keep it that way. You will be glad you did, dirty laundry belongs in the washing machine, not on the table.

Consider your priorities and make a plan to focus on them and not the outer world in general, realistically

beyond calm reason, "they" have very little to do with you. If you must/needs get involved do this only after

you have all of your own affairs in strict order, and then only if you feel like it. Do not allow yourself to be

guilt tripped or coerced, remember, those who try to do this, need you much more than you need them, ask

yourself why this is true, and exactly why that is. Consider the options, as well as the alternatives from a

detached, logical perspective, follow the pathway of the dream. Don't allow yourself to get distracted from

your own purpose, by establishing your priorities in your own mind, you are free to concentrate your mind,

and your energies on your creations in a timely fashion without feeling the pressure or burden of someone

else's demands or assumptions. "Be gentle with yourself, you are a child of the universe, no less than the 

birds and the trees, you have the right to be here" compromise or make adjustments only when you feel the

need to do so. Know yourself, then everything else will fall into place. You are the missing piece of the 

puzzle, there in is the established framework of your life, you can add accessories at will. Blueprints were

only designed as a guideline, they are not engraved in stone, it is you who must adjust them or deny their

validity or even toss them aside and get new ones, never, ever settle for less than the very best for you, find

that perfect fit that is unique and especially custom made for the now of you. Life is after all a creative work

in progress, the colors and characters constantly changing to compliment the "Spirit of the now" that is

what animation is all about, you should love it or leave it alone. Blessed Be.

New Moon in Leo

"It is not important what you do. It is, however, very important that you do it."

Robert Pattinson, the actor is always in some of the most amazing movies that I have ever had the pleasure of seeing, all of them are deep, seductive, magnetically compelling, powerfully played, and they carry huge, unexpected, straight to the heart messages.

Those eyes, that shy, sly, smile, combined with these roles, are so very thought provoking in their essence, so accurately right on target in their subtle presentations, that they literally leave one breathless. The mind goes into overdrive in its meditative state, as the personal files of information are opened within by these seemingly innocent observations, the pieces fall together gently and precisely, the mind curls up like a feline that has had their fill of good cream, and the spirit sighs with gratitude, peace is restored to the soul, and for the moment all is clear in the world.

When I want to show someone something without having to go into a lot of explanation or detail, I recommend or hand them a movie, (thanks to Shamanarts for that insight years ago) "A picture is worth a thousand words." Please watch the movie "Remember Me" it is well worth watching all the way to the end. It is a "weaving tale" the ending like all great stories is the realization of the message within the spell. I promise it will leave you spellbound and amazed. It is about all of us in the now of today in some aspect. It shows us how and why it is  important that we do what we need to do, as every little piece of the puzzle does matter. 

If you feel that you need to break free of some situation, and yet you are afraid of the change, and what it will do to your world or those around you, it is even more important that you pay attention to the details of the situation that is around you. Compromise is difficult, surrender almost impossible to do. There may seem to be no way out, quite possibly this is true, so what can you do? First and foremost you must understand and remember the fact that you are not alone in this. If you feel that you are playing the part of a martyr you are seeing yourself in a victims role. There are no victims, really, only choices. You can decide to be a victim if you wish to, that is a choice. It is not your only option. Dark Venus has come into view, and this is but the ending of a season, and the beginning of another one. There must be depth for the light to shine in its purity. There must be dormancy for the plant to grow and flower in the spring. It is not an ending that you feel, it is simply a lesson or a challenge, if you decide to see it that way, or must/need to. It may seem as if there are

problems and adversaries with both open and hidden agendas, very real confrontations, intimate one to ones, inescapable problems that must be handled. You must accept the fact that these things are coming to a head because of too many compromises on the part of all concerned, these very real, buried complaints, and grievances seek to be aired because they are weakening the effectiveness of the entire entity on all levels of development in your life, personal, as well as professional, in that the "team" is not working together toward common goals or aspirations. There is a division here that must be repaired or let go of, as it is not growing or being supported in any way. There seems to be a "closed door" or "mind set" that is not open to new initiations, ideas, or adjustments, thus productivity is grinding to a crashing halt. Change is a necessity, not an option. Your energies can and will be used more effectively working within a partnership or group. You are not an island. You must admit this to yourself. If you cannot allow the people who are around you now to come into your life and be a part of it, then you must accept the fact that they are a part of the problem. This must be resolved, accepted, and ultimately acted upon. Like a surgeon, you must take a cold, clear, look at the situation, in order to "see" the truth, and then "fix" it. What you feel, think, and do, are completely different from where, what, and how you imagined yourself to be, however, your thoughts are clear, your heart is full, and your actions can be productive, if you are willing to share your ideas, and aspirations with others, this can be amazingly gratifying if you will allow it to happen, and get over the fear. Dream of better...open to the flow...share the burden...hold out your hand. What have you got to lose...really? Life is to be lived. Are you living it, or is it an existence that you have chosen for yourself? What are you holding onto that is in reality, holding you back, and keeping you a prisoner to the past? What brings you pleasure? Are you indulging it? Are you closing the door and bolting it to new experiences and horizons? Where is the strain or pull off of your energies in your life? Trace the path and nip it in the bud, move on! Don't look back.

"All impulses of thought have a tendency to clothe themselves in their physical equivalent." -Napoleon Hill-

"Nothing stands between us and our desires except the lack of a definite purpose." What is you purpose? Find it and the pieces all fall into place. You will feel it, and there will be a smile upon your face. Follow that dream to where it takes you. Never, ever, let it go, all else that is important will follow. I promise you.
