General Forecast

Welcome to merry month of May and the middle of spring! The Sun continues to move through Aries this month energizing us with the passion and fire of the sign of the Ram. Taking charge and initiating projects are well supported by this placement. The Sun moves into Taurus on the 16th allowing us to prosper from the efforts put forward during the Aries period. Mercury retrograde through the 12th could create minor delays with getting things off the ground. However, the payoff will be great once Mercury moves forward in Aries bringing added speed and a chance to make up for any “lost time.”

Venus and Juno in Taurus support loving, stable relationships for the first half of the month. As Venus moves into Gemini on the 16th, new friendships and partnerships with like-minded people occur. The Sun moving into Taurus on the same day will combine with Juno in Taurus to illuminate areas in already established partnerships that need to be nurtured. Use the energy of the Sun, Juno and Venus to keep your relationships lively and your social circle growing. Mars and Vesta in Cancer continue to place focus on relationships with your family. Taking care of their needs as much as your partner’s and your own could prove quite a juggling act for most signs this month. Vesta moves into Leo on the 10th increasing passion, creativity and sensuality for the rest of the month. Be sure to focus on your personal integrity and responsibility, as Vesta will test your ability to honor and respect yourself in the heat of the moment.

There are seven (a spiritual change number) planets aligning this month beginning on the 11th (a gateway) in a wonderful gateway pattern that will bring through interesting tests and opportunities for growth. Vesta (passion and integrity), Saturn (lessons and karma), Jupiter (expansion and grace), Uranus (spontaneous change), Chiron (healing), Neptune (spirituality and creativity) and Lilith (darker nature) combine together for experiences of positive, expansive growth that may have you connecting with people and places that test your faith and personal integrity. Spend time embracing and understanding your darker nature, as it may unexpectedly surface as a way to help you release old patterns that limit your heart’s desire and creativity. For those that are sensitive, psychic or healers, this doorway of energy will bring through greater revelations and access to the next level of your spiritual growth and healing potential. As planet Earth is sitting in the middle of the gateway, the energies will align with higher consciousness and any of the grids in and around the earth. Be sure to pay attention to your body, as there will be physical “side effects” of this powerful combination.

Pluto and Ceres retrograde in Sagittarius to re-enforce the lessons of the gateway, especially as they relate to the environment, religion or spirituality, wealth, natural resources and higher education. Pallas Athena retrograde in Libra could still pose some challenges to those looking to settle legal issues, or enter into contracts of any kind. If you find all is moving forward in a legal area, be sure to pay attention to the fine print, get second opinions and put everything in writing. This is not a time to settle for verbal agreements. The North Node in Sagittarius reminds us that with all that is going on in our lives to remember life is an adventure and to make the most out of it through having a positive outlook and not worrying about the destination point at the end.

Aries 4/15 – 5/15

As the Sun finishes its course through your sign in combination with retrograde Mercury in Aries as well, you may feel as though you are not sure which direction to go and when to act next.

Allow these new friends and social circles to challenge you to take more risks regarding what you truly want in life.

Saturn retrograde in Virgo asks you to pay attention to your diet. Aries needs fiery spices to keep their energy in check and the blood flow circulating well. You may need to indulge in massage, reflexology or body work to help you feel more energized and balance any digestive issues that may arise from feeling anxious. Lilith in Capricorn along with retrograde Saturn in Virgo and retrograde Pallas Athena in Libra could present issues at work with supervisors who want to maintain control or look official through adhering to outdated or impractical rules and regulations that appear stable. Bite your tongue for now, as the time for the truth to be revealed will be next month.

Jupiter and Uranus in Pisces signal a strong period of spiritual growth for Aries. Pay attention to “coincidences” and random acts of kindness that are done around you over the next few months.

Retrograde Mercury in Aries until the 12th may have you running in circles from one social gathering to another without ever truly enjoying them. Make sure to budget your time spent away from home and family, as they may need you during the first half of the month.

Your naturally passionate nature will be heightened, as well as your desire to take action rather than sit and watch the world go by. Pace yourself, as these two signs could have you physically and emotionally running so high you may burn out. In addition, keep your temper and tendency toward self-righteousness in check. The Sun in Taurus until the 16th could have you acting out at work. When the Sun moves into Gemini on the 17th it will contribute sunny times with friends and relatives that may ease the Mars/Vesta pressure. Venus moving into Cancer on the 10th will heighten your emotions for the rest of the month. Leo is normally an extremely loving sign. The energy of this month, though, will have you using more tough love than romantic love.

Lilith moving into Aquarius could trigger people who have betrayed you in the past re-appearing suddenly. Lilith is combining with retrograde Neptune and Chiron to heal your issues of having faith in others. Trusting yourself and trusting others will be a major lesson while Lilith is in Aquarius for the next nine months. Jupiter and Uranus in Pisces will help to heal your faith, beliefs and connection with others on a soul level. Jupiter in Pisces will also act as a guardian angel for Leo over the next year.

Remember to live with joy, grace and ease.

The North Node combined with retrograde Pluto and Ceres in Sagittarius help you reach into your personal well of adventure, joy and good humor to turn any negativity around in your life. You may feel more like running away than facing your challenges head-on right now. However, Pluto, Ceres and the North Node in Sagittarius remind you to not take life so seriously and a short time away from a problem may result in a better solution or healthier perspective. Treat it like a game where everyone is a winner when they enjoy the adventure rather than worrying about the outcome. Mercury moving into Taurus on the 7th will keep the energy lively and busy at work for most of the month.

Virgo 9/18 – 10/17

You are entering into a period of hard work both professionally and personally. Saturn, the planet of time, work, perfection and mastery begins moving forward again in your sign this month. Any delays, stagnation or resistance will seem to disappear now. Saturn in Virgo will then turn around and give you focus, determination and organization to succeed. There are many karmic lessons to learn while Saturn is in your sign. The top three areas to work with during this time are patience, priorities and practicality. The Sun in Taurus during the first half of the month supports these qualities as well, especially as you work toward completing any unfinished projects or courses of study.

Crystals for a Deeper Meditation

Hello and welcome back to the crystal block of blogs! Todays blog is on crystals that aid in bringing you into a deeper meditation.  My number one choice for meditating is Selenite. Selenite has  very fine vibration which brings clarity to the mind. It opens the crown chakra where you can access angelic consciousness and higher guidance. Selenite instills a deep sense of peace and so works well in deepening meditative states and when doing spiritual work. My second choice would be Kyanite which helps attune you to your higher self which brings you into a deeper meditative state. Kyanite has a tranquilizing energy and it is a powerful transmitter and amplifier of high frequency energies, which can stimulate both psychic abilities and the intuition.  Kyanite also helps in manifesting spiritual energy into thought. Number three on the crystal parade today is Dioptase. Dioptase is not only a powerful stone for the heart, it facilitates spiritual attunement, allowing you to reach the highest levels of consciousness thereby deepening your meditative state. Petalite would be my number four. Petalite enhances angelic connection. Petalite has a high, pure vibration which opens to cosmic consciousness. It enhances meditation through that opening to cosmic consciousness and the angelic connection. When setting an intention for answers, Petalite is the crystal of choice. Number five on my list is Rhodonite. Rhodonite balances the emotions. It is a crystal of unconditional love. If you use a mantra when meditating, Rhodonite will enhance the quality of the meditation as it aligns the soul to a higher vibration. My last pick by by no means the least is Golden or Honey Calcite. This calcite brings you into a deep state of relaxation linking you into your highest source of guidance, enhancing your meditation while expanding your energetic field.

If you are finding you have difficulty sleeping, any of these crystals will aid in relaxing you into a deep sleep. If you are a rather nervous or anxious person, any of these crystals if carried on your person, will help you to stay in a more relaxed state of mind.

Happy meditating. The next series of blogs will be on totem animals and what they mean. Remember if you have any questions or comments on what I write, please send your comments or your questions along. I’d be happy to reply.

Crystals for the Heart

Hello again. I apologize for the time away from the blog on crystals but it has been for good purpose. My book “Am I Spiritual?” is finally complete and off to the editor! Focusing of everything being good with that so it can be on the shelves for sale in January.

So now to the crystals for the heart. My first choice of a heart crystal is always Rose Quartz. Rose Quartz is a crystal of unconditional love and infinite peace. It aids in the release of old emotions that block both the acceptance of love and the giving of it. It can help in breaking through the emotions that cause a negative self-image. And it brings deep inner healing and self love. Second on my list of heart crystals would be Unakite. This crystal helps balance the physical aspects of the heart and aids in circulation. It enhances self worth and allows us to step outside of the drama so we can look a the problem. Unakite also helps to balance emotions. Number three for the heart is Labrodorite. Labrodorite helps to keep the heart protected from outside emotional hurts. It aids in dealing with other peoples emotions and moods. My fourth pick for heart crystals is the Ruby. Rubies help to balance the heart energies, both etheric and physical, energizing and balancing. It aids with confidence, enthusiasm and self worth issues. The only time you would not use Ruby is if the person has an irritible personality because then the Ruby will exacerbate this aspect. My final choice of heart crystal for this blog would be Dioptase. This crystal actually nourishes the heart chakra. It aids with letting go of old patterns that create dischord. It is a powerful healer of the heart.

To use these crystals for healing the heart you can meditate with them, carry them on your person in a pocket or medicine bag or place them between the mattress and box spring of your bed. It’s also fairly easy to find  a rose quartz heart pendant that you can wear around your neck, the chain or thong should be long enough so the quartz lays over your heart. You can find these at most flea markets and crystal shops that sell jewelry. The next blog will be on the crystals that can help quiet your mind and bring you into a deeper meditative state.

April Horoscopes

April 2010

Horoscopes

General Forecast

Aries 4/15 – 5/15

The energies are running high for Aries this month as the Sun, Venus and Mercury are all in your sign. You may feel as though you are continually on the go with little rest and still a lot more to do. However, with all the planetary energies retrograde it is time to review and rework you plans rather than a time for action. Spend the first half of the month while the Sun is in Pisces to contemplate the direction you would like to move during the next two months period of time. The Sun will charge up your batteries after the 15th, however a retrograde Mercury in your sign from the 18th through the 12th could create false starts and hasty actions that could cause you more work in the long run. Take time making decisions while Mercury is retrograde. Utilize Venus in your sign to come from your feelings and your heart rather than from your head when deciding a course of action or what to say. Saturn retrograde in Virgo could help you rethink a plan of action, especially at work. Although you may feel restless in your position, it would be better to wait on an employment change, seeking a raise or getting a promotion. Ceres and retrograde Pluto in Sagittarius may trigger your desire to act as a karmic agent toward authorities, teachers and charlatans by holding them accountable for their actions. In addition, handle your own issues of hypocrisy and self-righteousness. Accept the lesson in walking your talk, knowing that you will grow stronger as a result. Uranus in Pisces stimulates psychic and spiritual experiences that could be shocking or intense. Uranus is in Pisces for the next seven years instigating changes in Aries’ spirituality as well as shifts in their psyche as a result of being made aware of buried subconscious programs and emotional issues.

Mars and Vesta in Cancer continue to work hard on home and family issues. Vesta moves direct this month allowing creative projects to get off the ground and flourish.

Taurus 5/16 – 6/15

The first half of April will be a social period for you as the Sun moves through the rest of Pisces. On the 15th, as the Sun moves into Aries, joining Mercury and Venus, you may find ideas and creative energies flowing more smoothly. Neptune and Chiron conjunct in Aquarius compliment the planets in Aries through stimulating a more spiritual approach to your career and goals. Mercury moving retrograde on the 18th through May 12th could indicate a period of too many ideas and opportunities coming in too quickly to handle them all at once. Be sure to stay centered and take one step at a time. There is nothing worse than a charging bull not knowing where it is going or why. Uranus secure in his path in Pisces could change your social circles through bringing in more people of an artistic and spiritual nature. Lilith in Capricorn could challenge your desire to hold on to a traditional way of thinking or learning that could be altered at this time. This lesson in letting go of tradition could come through as a former teacher or mentor who has not changed themselves and is running the same dynamic as when they taught you. Ceres and retrograde Pluto conjunct in Sagittarius tap into your hidden resources. You may find wealth or empowerment that is long overdue comes through under this placement. It will be important for you to connect with nature under this influence as a way to regenerate your mind and body.

Saturn retrograde in Virgo could make you overly cautious about taking any risks, especially if they may jeopardize long term plans you set in motion at the beginning of the year.

Gemini 6/16 – 7/17

Business and finances get a positive boost of energy from the Sun in Pisces the first half of the month combined with Mars and Vesta in Cancer. Although you may be feeling cautious about spending or investing due to Lilith in Capricorn, remember you can not take it with you when you go. Live in the moment and make the best of your good situation now. The Sun moving into Aries on the 15th along with Venus lights up your social calendar. However, retrograde Mercury in Aries from the 18th trough May 12th could find you running around from place to place and event to event with little time to handle life at home. Take time to sort out your responsibilities, as Saturn in Virgo along with Mercury retrograde in Aries could frustrate you and your sense of priorities. Manage your time as wisely as you manage your attention to those you love. Pallas Athena retrograde in Libra may be pressing the “It’s not fair” button as a result your conflict between responsibilities and fun. Juno moving into Taurus combined with the North Node, Ceres and retrograde Pluto in Sagittarius could resurrect issues regarding past relationships that need to be healed. It will be important to look at your role in the ending of past relationships. It could be your own issues of power or a karmic issue that truly ended the relationship. Key here is what did you learn and how can you take those seeds and plant them for the next relationship. Dig deep into your subconscious to find out what you are truly looking for in a partner. You may find someone who has secret feelings for you coming into the picture. Neptune, Chiron and Jupiter in Aquarius support a healthy period of learning and higher education regarding a new talent or skill. Jupiter, specifically, will expand your wisdom and your contact base in this area. Any pursuit of counseling or therapy as a career as well as to balance yourself would be beneficial under the influence of the planets located in Aquarius. Uranus in Pisces could have you making changes in your career. Make sure to go with the flow of current social trends, as well as moving into work that has more soul, yet keeps change and spontaneity alive in what you do.

Cancer 7/18 – 8/17

This is a time to be called into action. You may have been sitting on the sidelines waiting for the precise moment to move forward. It has arrived. Mars and Vesta in your own sign provide ample energy to move you on a path of self-improvement. Saturn retrograde in Virgo allows you to look back on goals and plans you had when you were younger. Look at them again as a way to reconnect with your inner child and purpose in life. Added to this burst of energy is the Sun moving into Aries along with Venus stimulating positive changes in your career and goal orientation. Mercury moves retrograde in Aries on the 18th, you will find it may create delays at work, primarily with getting approvals or start dates for projects. In the meantime you can still work behind the scenes finalizing details in other areas of your life. Pallas Athena retrograde in Libra places emphasis on being fair to yourself through stepping aside from family affairs for a while. Allow others to sort out their differences right now. It is best you do not get involved. Neptune and Chiron conjunct in Aquarius support a trip that is healing and relaxed.

Neptune and Chiron conjunct in Aquarius add energy to this partnership through presenting you an opportunity to heal and have better and more creative vision about your future. Jupiter in Aquarius as well, expands your relationships through greater diversity and enjoying the good humor and fun people want to share with you. Ceres, the North Node and retrograde Pluto in Sagittarius stimulate traveling to places filled with culture and wisdom. It may be time to visit a place that holds family heritage or has the essence of being a spiritual pilgrimage for you. Mars and Vesta in Cancer bring through a steady flow of energy that seems to come from nowhere.

Crystals for the Lungs and Chest

I apologize for anyone that has been waiting for this blog installment. So here it is. If you are suffering from a cold, allergies, asthma, pneumonia, etc. and are looking for relief in breathing, these crystals can offer non-medical help. This does not mean if you are in serious distress you ignore medical help. Crystals are great as an ongoing process to help you move away from the constant need of medical intervention. As your system stabilizes with the help of crystals, you will find less problems with your respirations. My first choice of crystal for the lungs/chest is Moss Agate. this crystal relaxes and opens up congested bronchials and lungs. It also aids in the circulation of blood and the lymph system which can become clogged or restricted.  Moss Agate can also help to release pent up emotions which can cause restrictions in breathing. My second choice of crystal for breathing is Crysocolla. This crystal is excellent for throat and chest issues. It relaxes the body and emotions allowing muscular relaxation of the chest and lungs making breathing easier.  My third choice is Larimar. Larimar aids in the flow of chi, your natural body energy, into the upper body releasing tightness. These are not the only crystals for use with the lungs and chest area, but they are among the most powerful. I do suggest you carry them on your person everyday if you suffer from breathing disorders or have a heavy cold. As you keep the crystal(s) on you, it has the opportunity to give you continued vibratory recalibration to ease your breathing. As with anything else, if you don’t use it, it can’t help you. Until next time when I will blog about crystals for the heart.
