parker's perspective

I GOT A FEELING


OH YEAH........ We are in between Eclipses. The best is yet to come. I really mean that. I did mention about heads of state changing....(in last month's' blog) and in the Netherlands......they got a new King and Queen..See? This age old history of heads of states changing when the  Eclipses come calling, is the real deal !!. and the big Solar Eclipse is still 9 days away!! So many changes are coming down the path. Its all good. ~ in a 'lets view it that way' sort of way. CHANGES  can be our friend. If... we let the grip on the cookie jar relax just a bit.

You have to feel your way around changes to make the best of them. You can't really just jump in the deep end right now. Ease on down the mountain (or up it) ~~ scoot on your butt if you have to-  or take a rest half way down (or up)--- just don't look down. It'll freak you out how far you've come and how far you have to go to get to the landing. Steady gets the gig when  the cosmos are filled with Taurus EARTH energy.  Don't under-value the importance of slowne$$$$$$$$$.  Like I said - I got a feeling...its about the inner worth- but outer worth counts too.

Ben baby who decides who pays more interest and when, is going to be in the news by the time the third eclipse hits on May 24th.~ or shortly thereafter.  For those of you who live in a cash only world you can skip this part.  Its the head of the Federal Reserve Board I am talking about........ Chairman Bernanke... he's got a Birth Chart that going through some big time changes........Saturn return (what do i want to do with the rest of my life?) Jupiter return (do i still have any dreams left?) and the Lunar Eclipse in May will conjunct his Mercury (mind) EXACTLY. So what he decides will have long and far reaching impact on many many people. Of course he doesn't 'decide' things about our interest rates alone.....but ............ the fact is things are going to get better and once that writing is on the wall...the buzz in my ear is that interest rates are going UP. Its coming sooner than you think - so plan accordingly. IN THE FUTURE- STUDENT LOANS are going to be very very important. Around Dec. 2014. -Big changes coming.

ALL this energy in the sky- right now- Taurus-- is about Money- and love, and what you love and how you spend/save money and or spend or save your loving. WHAT is it YOU VALUE? That's what you have to go after. That's what needs to be looked at. It might not be the dollar bill at all- but the freedom it give you - of choice.

Taurus likes its comforts. That means silk. chocolate. nice scents. quality. not so much quantity-  just the finer things in life. They don't have to be 'expensive' -but well thought out, well made, well intended. That means love also.... emotions.....you got a 'feeling'? what's the best way to express it? SING it right now. Taurus also rules the throat. - so with the Solar Eclipse at 20 degrees Taurus I am of the thought that OPERA singers are going to be in the news....maybe the funding of the voice gets a big gift. MAYBE you find your voice and get going on what it is that you wish to sing about (or paint or draw or any creation- baby making as well).....revisit 1994.  We are in -"play-it-again- sam'.........time. What happened then can have meaning now. Build on it.

Mars is in Taurus all the month of May. Get out in the fields and play around- enjoy the flowers, take in the simple joys of being alive. In truth-you don't need a lot of everything in life- just a enough LOVE.  This is the month to show it, make it, be it.  We always have a choice of seeing the love out there in the world- or being overwhelmed by the anger- the confusion of those that have no love inside. If you've got lots of love inside share it. Give the gift of LOVE.  It cost nothing and is worth everything. That loving feeling is what we are all after. Hang on to the love feeling- it will never devalue.

Its all about keeping the front line STRONG. Aries energy remains front and center for several more weeks. You can't be weak now. It won't work in the long run to be weak, but also you must not go stupidly into the good night-aka forget to use the breaks.  We have choices people!!! Rule yourself first and then you'll have the respect of others so you won't need to rule them. 

Figure out where you want to be. IF its not where you currently are- then start with a plan of how to get there (its not going to just switch to the next scene without your effort)~ and begin to work on it- now. Its not too early to jump start your life.

Its time to keep those wheels greased. Check the oil, make sure all things/*you*keep moving. The energy is all about moving. You can sit and stare at what you created when we get to the Taurus energy. That's not coming until mid-April. 

 AND THEN - the LUNAR Eclipse is coming - April 25th 12:57pm PDT. Shake up time! Who has what resources and how can we get some? (worldwide). What is emotional/material security for you? It will change. Sudden gains are not unlikely- however at what cost? (PLUTO TURNS RETROGRADE on the 12th- they will be hidden after that point). Everyone is going to be checking to see if the bank balance is looking better than before. I think its going to be getting better month by month here in the USA.  The Lunar Eclipse is going to trigger a need to  REALLY look at our DEBT situations. There are solutions, just slow in coming. No quick fixes here.

Eclipses in general bring to the headlines the issues that the signs they occur in represent. - This one is Scorpio Moon/ Taurus Sun.-  typically sex scandals scream out-but no one can really be shocked anymore by these. So what could STAND out- is how resources are used in ways to help the poor or those struck by disasters. THAT would SHOCK us- we are so used to only hearing the wasteful and greedy stories.

The compassionate heart of Taurus is always wanting to express itself.  Give it a chance to sing out the many ways that you can celebrate life. So many people are struggling its true- its always been a truth really. Parts of the world struggle in different ways. But we need to embrace this last bit of Aries energy with ACTION and then when we get to Taurus we can stop and reflect have we been kind? To ourselves? To others? Could we follow up on that choice to take our first music lesson? Can we jump in and explore love and romance after 60? Or after any fill in the blank reason.  Lunar Eclipse periods are a time when the kettle gets stirred and we can walk down a new path- the way is shown - CLEARLY- (or sometimes we are nudge in a big way).

So get your red slippers on AFTER you take off the crown, and get ready to skip down a new road that WILL lead you to your version of OZ.

What does everyone on earth want? Many just want PEACE. They wish for the chatter, worry, fear, shame, guilt, old stories of childhood lost, to stop.  And they can. You control the knobs. But in order to do this, one must get very very still, and fish for the silence.

Having just returned from my tenth trip to my teacher's abode in Southern India- I have found peace. I am shanti.  I caught the vibe of silence and centeredness is the result. You don't have to travel across the earth to find peace, but you do have to make time for it- turn off the soap opera dramas of the world, and tune into the channel of inner self. And now is a perfect time to try this- as FIVE planets are in the sign of Pisces!

Pisces is all about tuning out (or in) and finding what gives you a sense of belonging to the ONE. Why do you think so many Sun signs have a preference for mind altering substances? Because they long to 'chill' find that zone of 'other world'. I don't recommend artificial ways of getting there- I prefer the real deal way:
meditation.

What is meditation? It is simply stilling the mind. Not so easy, but very simple. With consistent practice one can find the path. You can 'meditate' playing the guitar, (or any musical instrument) painting, woodcarving, doing yoga, (as breath is very much involved) and really doing anything that required one pointed concentration. You will find that you are in the meditative state when you - FORGET YOURSELF (the body) and find YOURSELF (the real self- the silence self) at the same time. And time dissolves. These are your clues. One must be steady in the practice, otherwise it will just be an exercise in frustration. You can't build a muscle by doing exercise every 'once and a while' and the same is with finding peace. The result of steady -(everyday) practice of  meditation is a calmer being, tuned in to what direction to take, and not so reactive to the ups and downs of the worldly life. So give it a try!

Another tool that I found in India was the remembrance of: GRATITUDE!  That you can walk down the street with both feet, have all your limbs, eat several times a day, have HOT WATER, heck HAVE CLEAN WATER! We  who live in the western world are so spoilt! The kicker is, most don't even know they have such a life of ease. You'd have to travel to a third world country to see what you have, that millions do not have, will not ever have, and yet manage to carve out a happy life.  Pisces is also about giving to those who need help. Its everywhere that you can help. You can help on a day to day basis by just giving someone your smile. Pisces energy is tied to the Christ mindset. - we are here to serve. Do what you can with what you have. And it sometimes starts with simply learning to serve, by loving yourself.  If you love yourself you'll share that love that you know you are, by just being who you are; if you haven't made peace with yourself and don't love who you are- well- get busy to create and make choices that will allow you to fall in LOVE with your very own being.

Mercury is retrograde- in the middle degrees of Pisces, until the 17th of March. Time like these we can clean out the closets. The ones with clothes and the ones with bad thoughts. Get rid of what isn't useful. Review what brings you a sense of wholeness. Dip into the waters that restore your soulfulness. And make a list of everyone you need to 'forgive' for being 'human'.  We also need to forgive ourselves for mistakes and wrong ways we've viewed our self and  life. Can I forgive myself for not being in the 9th grade while I was still in the first? What I am getting at is that we often have over expectations of what we 'should' or 'could' do - but in fact sometimes we aren't ready for that next big project! Or simply that we 'allowed' ourselves to gain that weight- or over shop, or spent the afternoon in gossip. Pisces actually loves to indulge a bit in all of those- when the lower energy is being used- it wishes to dissolve in over eating or over anything. If we find this to be true- just - STOP- take account, go to the source of WHY and forgive- make a new start.

The Pope has stepped down during this retrograde Mercury (and Saturn is also retrograde!) and who will fill his shoes? Um.... I don't know. I hope it will be someone with OPEN MINDEDNESS. Jupiter is still in Gemini- and that combo is about dialogue. Dual thought. Many options. We do need leaders who can be flexible, hear the flock, and also remember the first teaching of Christ: LOVE.  (no sub clause there- love only the one who is like you, etc)..... There are many paths to oneness- but they ALL have LOVE as a foundation. You can't 'be' a christian if you don't show (not tell) LOVE. And since the Pope represents the Christian flock- let us vote for a Pope that has LOVE in the mind, in the heart and in the actions.

And showing LOVE in the mid- to late part of March is going to take much heart action. We are coming into a period around Spring (19-22nd March) where- an explosion of energy is going to change the world. Gone will be the old ways. (old ways are fear and greed).  The path will be cleared- the dust won't settle for a while. If you are having trouble now adjusting to the challenges of life- best get centered so you can deal with what's coming down the pipe. BIG SHIFTS. EARTHQUAKES that are so big you can't even   believe them. Fear has no place in any of this- the best thing to do is GET CENTERED so you can respond and do what is needed when the shift happens. LIFE WILL AND DOES GO ON!  Learn how to watch the show. Its a movie just like the one in the theatre. Spend no time in fear and anger. Spend time in Faith and Surrender. Love and Compassion.

So dip your fishing rod in the wet and see what the deep waters give you and celebrate what you are given or not given, as both are a blessing.  Sometimes Divine gives us what we need instead of what we want and then we realize how very very LUCKY we are!

Happy Fishing.

I was going to title this post- "why use astrology?"... then I changed my mind...the thought to go to a deeper topic came. We have so many planets in Capricorn right now-(Sun,Mercury,Venus,Pluto)that the 'worth' of anything can and should be looked at - and that leads me to - How do you give value to your life and your choices in life? and what role does or can astrology play in that?

Personally, I see the symbolism in the movement of the planets and how we can divert many troubles in life by paying attention to the stop,go,and yellow 'lights' that are shown in the transits. But can we save ourselves from feeling pain when we face the struggles in life and make choices that later we see aren't in our best interest? Are we suppose to? This boils down to the question of why we are even born-and take that even deeper, you come to - WHO IS BORN? WHO ARE "YOU"?

Astrology can tell us about our strengths and weakness and how to change our life by making our 'weakness' strong and honoring what we ARE good at. And leading us to accept our faults and not beat ourselves up when we step off path. There aren't really 'mistakes' in life- just 'lessons in learning to love more'... ourselves and others.

But can astrology lead us to the ultimate truth of who we are? Can astrology like yoga (union with god) lead us to freedom? What does it mean to be to be a prisoner?

We are a prisoner when we don't understand our own hearts. We are a prisoner when we stay in the mind thought that we don't have choices. We are a prisoner when we don't line up with what makes us SHINE WITH HAPPINESS. When we don't move toward the light but stay in the shadows complaining about our life but not moving (out of fear) toward what we really WANT our life to be about;then we are a prisoner of our own making. And that means you have to become your own best friend and ask yourself a lot of questions- and stop looking outside for happiness. Everyone wants happiness (contentment) but what brings that sense of contentment is different for everyone-and we can see that in the symbolism in the chart!

So here we are in a 'new' year- full of all sorts of MARVELOUS possible openings and paths- if you make the effort! You hold the lock and the KEY. It is of your own making on a soul level- a CHOICE was made at one point in your soul to have certain experiences and learn from them. If you want to 'understand' others- you must first start with yourself- do you really KNOW yourself? This is the moment to discover - what makes you move! Get your groove on and create the life YOU WANT if you are not happy with the direction that things are going in! Mars is the planet that rules ACTION- and in the chart- it rules how we go about getting what we want and think we need. As Mars moves around the birth chart it stirs up desires and give us the energy to 'make it happen'...

Right now Mars is in the sign of Aquarius, an air sign. The energy is about 'brotherhood of man' about the collective. Its placement in Aquarius is great for working with the abstract ideas and electronic, anything that furthers our 'progress' in a 'out of the box' way. Its placement there also is great for gather the TEAM. Many smart minds can work together to create forward thinking and the result can be good inventions and changes in the world that help the masses with this placement.

Mars moves into Pisces on Feb 2nd. And during this time the largest gathering of humanity on EARTH will be in motion. The MAHA KHUMBLA MELA- which takes place in Allahabad, India. And I am Going! Grace from the guru has manifested this dream for me- and lots of effort has been put forth (Mars) to get there. It is expected that up to 200 MILLION pilgrims will attend the festival of prayer over the two months. That's a lot of good MOJO! And the world needs it.

So in honor of this most amazing event and fact that I am attending this festival- I am running an astrology special this month. Readings looking at MARS in the birth chart- and how you can GET WHAT YOU WANT. We will look at the transit of Mars as it circles your birth chart all year- so that you can make 2013 a year in which one of your dreams comes true from your own efforts and energy- just like my dream to go to the Mela!

Contact me if you are interested in this kind of focused reading-(and only mars is looked at-no other charts- 70 mins-130.00) And if you wish to come along with me to the Mela- check out my other blog-

Also- if you didn't get enough shopping thrills for the holidays- here's my etsy shop that is funding this pilgrimage that happens only once every 12 years!

I am trying to be an example- by my own use of my Mars energy to show you all- you can dream- and then you can make that dream a reality.

But YOU do have to do it- So are you ready to be free?

It's 12-12-12 today. That reads the same way in India too. (They date things by the day first not the month). So we can rest assured that there's no confusion on today's date- no matter where you live in the world. There is likely confusion on just how much numbers 'effect' things. Or controversy on it rather.  Today would be a great day to get into the thick of it with your mind and the concept of how 'numbers' can change mind-set. Can they? Um......well, if I have an idea of what I should feel like or act like at a certain age (which is a number) then sure. Or if I have an idea of how secure I am with a certain amount of numbers in my bank account, then sure. But what if I am free from the numbers game? Then do I have happiness and elevated consciousness no matter what the number? Time is a man made thing- so is numbers. So how can a man-made thing- concept control when and where we reach higher levels of thinking? Should it?

I am discussing this as- all the "MAYA-N" hype over Dec 21st is boring me to death. How many times I have been asked what I think about Dec 21st? ~lots. What do I think about Dec 21st? I think its great to honor the Winter Solstice (or Summer depending where you live). I think anytime we move into Capricorn energy I get excited as I relate very well to that earth bound goat. Hard work and steadfastness are my best friends- and that's what will get me to higher levels of understanding-not just focusing on  numbers. Not limited to certain days. Not only on a Monday and never on a Sunday kind of thinking for me. YET- I do recognise that there are 'better' times to achieve a goal than other times! I am an astrologer after all. Don't plant the crops during an ice storm and expect them to bear fruit. Don't launch a project when mercury is retrograde and the moon is void of course and expect a fast result. But maybe that's perfect for you if you need to learn the lesson of 'all good things come to those that wait.'

So does this mean that today we have magical thinking because its a 12-12-12 day? Well, the supreme Numerologist, Cherio believed that the month of Dec and the number 12 actually breaks down to 3. And it does. And so its really THREE energy that we are working with. Father, Son, Holy Ghost.~~~ Brahman, Vishnu, Shiva.~~~ Begin-Protect- and LET GO..(or let god some say)...

So- that's how I feel about the 121212 energy- move it. Start it- secure it- save room for the miracle. Don't get stuck in what things HAVE to be right now. We are after all in SAG energy now- the open-minded seeker of truth. The muscle developing archer. ARCH the mind to the thought that maybe a mind-numbers game can unite the world to higher levels of peaceful living. Why not?  I am open to it- even though I don't think we have to wait. We can do it NOW. Endings and Beginnings happen every second of every day.

Three energy is also tied to Gemini energy- the zodiac sign that is ruled by Mercury. Mercury has just moved into Sag. it will be there until Jan 1 2013.  Yes, on New Years Day- Mercury will move into serious thinking, hard working, what's in it for me, give 500 percent Capricorn.

So until then- for right now- today- think of the possible changes- movements you can make in your mind- set to manifest for yourself and the ones you love, a cheerful attitude and approach to living on this always diverse and very complex plane called -living on earth.

TOMORROW-  Uranus stations direct. That means the bow that been 'pulled back' since July 13th is about to be released. Mark your target- make it a loving bow- and do not take the focus off where you wish to land. What would also be helpful - make friends with opposing views. See the value in someone else's values. This is also called generosity of spirit. And we are in the 'holidays' which really should be called 'holy days' or hole-days coz a lot of people see them as what they don't have or won't get instead of what they do have- a chance to make the heart expand.  Do you think when Christ was up on that wood - in all that pain- he allowed himself to think- "maybe i made a mistake in thinking man can love everyone"? ... do you think that when we celebrate his birthday with a shopping trip instead of a changed bad habit of ours we are honoring the pain his physical body endured to try to SHOW BY EXAMPLE that he loved all; forgave all?

I know I sound preachy... its that darn Sag energy that gets me thinking what Christmas is really about. I love opening surprises just like the next person. I am very very child like in that way. But what I want this year is for hearts to be opened and love to prevail over greed, selfishness, closed mindedness and for some truth of what that man on the cross endured. Even if its just for one day- whatever day you pick- that day will be the magical number.

Happy Healthy Hearts to you all in this Holiday Season!

I keep hearing Dylan singing ~~~

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.

~~~
And this is the theme of all Eclipses. Change.  They usher in a collective urge to move forward on a personal level. If this TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE in SCORPIO at 21 degrees hits a personal angle or planet in your chart- you've felt it coming long before its exactitude on Nov 13th 2012 at 2:09 pm PST.

We will see in the headlines- *(already have!) heads roll ( sex scandal is often the theme with Scorpio)

"Former CIA director and four-star US Army general David Petraeus admits his extramarital affair was a "colossal mistake", a former spokesman says." ~~BBC.

Well, I'll be darn. Just on time. Have you ever heard them say it 'wasn't a mistake?'..... "Glad I got to have my security (boring marriage) and sex (thrilling lover).".... Ever hear that?  I don't know if it was a 'miss-take'.... but I do think that this is FAR deeper than ANY of us will ever know or understand. Layered. Secrets are deep with this one. I always think they are trying to keep us from looking where it really matters when stuff like this comes out.

It's the start of the season theme of - Death, Sex, Classified information- TOP SECRET, Taxes, BIG MONEY, and double suicide bombings. Yep. They can come in many forms.

I know this isn't what you want to read. I certainly don't want to write it. Informed is better than denial. I think. Actually, you might prefer the latter. There is good news too. Let's get right on with that since I have already told you the worst that could happen.

New heads of State. Unexpected- but not really- its just been a secret until it not!-Prince Charles is due! Said that in June of 2011. He's a Scorpio- and this Eclipse is right on his Sun!! BIG News will be coming out of the Palace this year.

 Good news is - Over night transformation because of endings. Some endings are good. They allow RE-BIRTH. Allows for you to explore with passion paths that previously you weren't ready for.   Scorpio is all about shedding that skin you've out grown.  Pushes you forward- FEARLESSLY. Ok, maybe not totally without fear, but that's what the Life Jacket is for. Its your plan "c" if plan 'b' doesn't pan out- since plan 'a' bit the big one.

So go for the dream ! Allow for the obsessive energy to be unleashed and don't look back! Go deep into what you YEARN for. What idea, person, need - just won't go away? Get on with it. Start to develop it. Put 500 percent into it. This is of course- as long as it harms none! Keep it high up on the 'best thing that could ever have happened to me' thought. See the opening through that crack in the tomb and pry your fingers in there- let that LIGHT in!! MOVE OUTWARD FROM THE SHADOWS.

Neptune just went direct. It’s at zero degrees (the seed for the baby). Spirit contact. Awareness of something greater than just little old ego you. Neptune is also about IMAGINATION. FAITH. BIG BIG BIG BOTTOMLESS FAITH. Takes you to astro plane nine. Its a good ride. No hangover is involved. If one is - its not real.  YOU only want REAL now. Or I should say, "if it isn't real- it won't last- so why bother?"

On Nov 16th Mars ingresses into Capricorn. We are happy about this too! Because Mars loves to be in Capricorn. They work well together. They work long and hard and the result is a masterpiece. Or at the very least a really good start. The learning curve goes up. Mars will be in a fantastic relationship with Saturn- you'll be able to do LOTS of effective things this month. Such as preparing fully for anything that might come up as unexpected for Thanksgiving. And lots of things will be unexpected this year. Mercury is retrograde so it is a sure thing for CRAZY travel plans - that require much flexible energy- and also a review of just how much food do we really need to burden our bellies with?  This year many people will be thanking the stars for 'steady' thing in their lives- even if that's your four walls with heat. The simple things seem like the very best gift ever! Like hugging your neighbor who you thought was washed down stream. I am serious and so is Scorpio - Capricorn energy- it shows you what truly has MEANING in your life. It cuts the petty stuff right out. Its the mash potatoes that you thought you were bored with that now taste better than they ever have~ because you added garlic. (Remember the theme of CHANGE? IT can be small and still give a life).

And then... just after Thanks-GIVE-------- we have another eclipse. This one is in Gemini. The twins. Communication.  "Hello, is anyone out there?" Oh, you speak a different language? Oh, I didn't know I had to be multi-tasking in my hearing/speaking. I didn't think I had to go past my own story in my head- make space to hear someone else's story.  Yes, you do. If you want to keep the leftovers from being wasted. And you don't want to waste because you have become much more aware- too aware to do that anymore.

I am not just talking about food here. I am talking about how we can SHARE thoughts and how we can receive thoughts/ideas that then can help everyone in our community. You know- how you made butter in kindegarden. (that is an on purpose typo). Write a new contract- sign it and deliver on the goods - One for all and all for ONE. 

The election is over- let's hope the need to argue is too. And that this holiday season is filled with a deep seated need for SOLIDARTY of SPIRIT.

GET READY TO SOLDER IT. This week's news is big. Actually the entire month is full of openings and closings. Actually, let's make that the next six weeks! On the 4th, Jupiter (luck, how you relate, higher education, justice)is going to be stationing retrograde. That means re-wire the way you speak, think, and learn. Re-send messages to divine. (your very self). It’s about having a dialogue that is within - testing out new ideas, working through problems FIRST internally.

This is supported by the following day's BIG shift- of Saturn (just rewards, structure, bones, father time) into SCORPIO. No need to shiver. Unless you are an outlaw, been lying and cheating, and poisoning the earth or Oceans with your foul ideas and actions- then payback is coming and there is no place to hide. Shallow people will be thrown into the caldron of karmic balancing in the next two and half years. BECAUSE Scorpio is all about digging deeper than the core of the earth to find the resources that aren't outside of your self. It’s always IN that you have to go when you are dealing with Scorpio energy. This is some really intense viewing that takes place. That's why shallow people shiver. They are out of the element of comfort- Scorpio throws away everything -for what you deem to be Highest TRUTH.

Globe wise- population control will come into focus. Sexual right conduct. Yes. There are universal laws tied to that magical energy- that is so powerful you can make another human with. To make it cheap by throwing it around like it's just a play thing is to insult Scorpio energy and- no one in their right mind goes around insulting Scorpio. Aids will come back into the living room conversation in families. Or some other deadly disease will show its face. Last time Scorpio was in Saturn was Nov. 30 1982....... flash back..... to then if you were alive... that's just when Aids was surfacing. Safe sex is your duty. If you don't want to be responsible then don't put other people at risk by being risky.

There is also the big hopeful that big pharm will find a solution to some of the sexual diseases that have haunted us in the last decades. Not only is Saturn in Scorpio but it will be in MUTUAL RECEPTION with PLUTO!

Small lesson- Scorpio's ruler is Pluto. Pluto is in Capricorn right now- Capricorn's ruler is Saturn... So the planets are in each other's rulership sign...that makes like they are solder to metal.... not going to come unglued things that are started in the next 2 1/2 years!!

Things that are coming to a close- it’s a done deal- signed and delivered. You'll know it inside before the divorce papers are delivered.

We'll also be looking at the Death Penalty~ some changes coming down the pike with that one. And while we are on the subject of the big D.... It's a great time to give some thought to what that means to you personally, no matter what your age. The grim reaper doesn't send an announcement most of the time..(just comes calling to everyone else right?)...but if we are keen on it- we can make friends with death like issues. Because you know- death happens so that birth can happen. Its not a bad thing- its just a thing that most people never think about until its forced upon them via someone they love shedding the clothes of the body. Again that's OUTER- and I am speaking of the INNER.

How have you grown since Scorpio's last visit (1982). What path did you start out on then- and where have you landed? Are you happy with the spot /view? Do you want to change it? Well, then - that's a death isn't it? So don't be afraid- just move on forward to create what your innermost self DESIRES...Three words to help you look at this: COURAGE, STRENGHT, and BALANCE. Scorpio energy tends to be all or nothing- try to remember balance is going to help you get to the goal. There is NO SUCH THING AS FAILURE. There is only doing- or not trying. Everything you attempt now will be put in the DNA to make you stand tall, take names, and do the job you came to earth to do. This is no time to waste energy.

I know all this death talk will depress people, and that's not what I wish for, so let's also bring to the table the subject of LOYALTY. That's the other Scorpio key word. No one goes to bat for you like a Saturn in Scorpio person. They are just THERE. Since the entire population will be feeling this wave of sincerity, we have a good chance of becoming 'one for all and all for one' as we face the issues of the day. That's not fancy thinking- that's REALITY. What happens in your front yard does affect the man across the world. There isn't room for any of this "this is mine- (clean water)that is yours" (dirty water) kind of thinking with the shifts into Scorpio- but how do we become resourceful together? How do we fight CORRUPTION? That’s going to be the focus in the world- from gun runners- to sex-slave trades being broken up- they like I said will have no place to hide- 'coz Dragnet is on it! Seriously, Saturn will be in a lovely trine with Neptune all this month and next- and that means - yes, SallyAnne, dreams do come true- with hard work, no backing down, and some compassion for and from our fellow living creatures.

And if I were you, I do some serious looking into (investing) clean water companies, the power of water to create energy, and while your at it- buy a bottle of IRON tabets and set it on your breakfast table to remind yourself just how strong you are going to be the time Saturn leaves Scorpio.
