Happy New Year! This new year begins with a most auspicious sign- a Full Blue Moon in conjunction with a Mercury Retrograde. This is significant as it heralds a new cycle of energy, releasing the past and opening the door to unlimited possibilities. This new year and new decade, is going to bring a major shift in our conscious thinking and open the door to further self-realization.

Time has been moving at an unparalleled rate, which has brought us the gift of seeing our hopes, dreams, thoughts, and wishes manifest at a surprising and sometimes alarming rate. Truly this past decade has focused on the belief that ‘if we can think it, we can achieve it’.

As we’ve dared to dream and open our mind, the shift of ages from Pisces to Aquarius is gifting us with a never before seen outpouring of information. No longer are we reliant upon a particular university, library or reference text to provide information. From the heavens above, Aquarius has tipped the waters of illumination and knowledge from the gods back down to earth for us to receive. Through the air sign of Aquarius, we have seen this information fly quickly through the internet, connecting humanity on a global scale and providing information on any topic we can conceive of, at any time, with multiple resources to consider and cross reference. With this gift of knowledge in the new millennium, we’ve shared our life stories, bonded in social networks, blogged our thoughts, shopped and supported local and global businesses whose store fronts we may never see, learned about cultures throughout the world and now twitter our thoughts to thousands, as fast as we think of them.

This past decade was deemed the Age of Information and truly it has been, as many now complain of information overload, with so much available in hand. What will this new decade bring? We are proverbially set free to explore. Those that fail to see the opportunity waiting at this time, will regret in the future what they did not dare to try. As Mark Twain once said….. “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did so. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover”.

On our evolution as Conscious Spiritual Beings, we’ve spent this last decade becoming Conscious Creators, playing with the new toys we’ve received. Beginning in 2010, the journey continues and evolves as we move from knowledge, into wisdom. What is the different between knowledge and wisdom you ask? Knowledge is the awareness of the information. Wisdom is gained from taking the knowledge, putting it into action, observing how the action causes various reactions and then gaining discernment of how it best can be used. Once these factors have all been put into play, the result is wisdom.

In this new decade, we are moving into a new Age of Enlightenment. The Aquarian information from the gods can no longer be contained, the Divine Feminine is being released in all her glory and we will once again see a Renaissance period, where great art, architecture, philosophy, literature and science will develop and flourish. During this decade the greatest minds will stir, to share, to illuminate and to build and create works and ideas that will be marveled around the world.

You dear reader, are one of these creators. If you have been waiting for a sign, if you have wondered – when is my time, this is it, we’ve arrived. 2010 is your date, your time to shine. Fly boldly now in the direction of your dreams and use all the resources at your disposal. In this decade we will connect mind, body and spirit as the ancients did, connecting with our muses, using our intuition and dreams to guide us and we’ll work in tandem on the spiritual and on the earth planes. It’s here, we’re here and this decade will be one of historic making proportions on every level. So Celebrate, Reciprocate and Go Create!

Remember, the best is yet to come…

Looking for a star studded evening to make a wish and heal something from the past? You’re in luck, for this New Year’s Eve delivers a magical blend of a Full Blue Moon, complete with a partial lunar eclipse, in the midst of a Mercury Retrograde. This rare combination won’t be experienced again for another 29 years, so take note and prepare for a New Year’s Eve celebration full of surprises.

La Luna will be in full regalia this evening, showing her many moods, as she shimmers in her glory, confronts her shadow side with the eclipse and emerges reborn during a retrograde. As her children on earth, we should take note that this moon phase is in the astrological sign of Cancer, which will create a significant impact with water (liquids) and soul mates (relationships). Pay particular attention to what you drink on New Year’s Eve, for with each glass you raise to a toast, the energy will be heightened. This creates a rare opportunity to truly manifest your desires by imbuing into the liquid what you are thinking and saying as you make each toast. You truly can activate your libations with your energy, turning them into magical potions which you then drink, thereby absorbing them into your being.

New Year’s Eve through mid January 2010 is in the midst of a Mercury Retrograde. During this period, past events will return to be reflected upon and dealt with. Use this powerful time wisely to heal old wounds and forgive, starting out the New Year with a clean slate. Retrogrades can bring about the power to reconnect, to reveal, to release, relinquish, relive, revive, recognize, renew and restore. Think carefully and choose your actions wisely as this would be an excellent time to acknowledge and let go of something from your past or to recognize something wonderful that you’ve overlooked in the past, which is being presented to you again.

Remember that with the full moon in Cancer, emotions will be running high, so expect it to also provide a roller coaster ride throughout the evening. If you’re in Vegas, don’t be surprised to discover that you got married overnight and if you’re looking to get pregnant, focus passionate loving thoughts into your liquid libation and stir these thoughts throughout your body, activating this energy for the New Year.

To further enhance the energy of this spectacular evening, wear something that shimmers to celebrate the moon. Particularly powerful would be the color silver in clothing, jewelry made from the sea or if you have moonstone, this is the perfect night to let it shine.

Gentle readers, if you have been looking for a sign, a moment in time where you can connect mind, body and spirit to a particular event, in order to create transformation in your life, this New Year’s Eve is for you. Surround yourself in white light, wear a cowrie shell for protection and luck, write down the wish that you truly want to have activated in your life and raise your glass in a toast and proclaim it to be. Drink the full contents of your glass in three swallows and let the magic begin. Now go ‘trip the light fantastic’ and celebrate La Luna in her glory and new beginnings.

Wishing you a lifetime of love, light and laughter,

The New Moon on June 22 at Washington DC was in the 9th house exactly trine the Ascendent pointing to favorable developments in international relations, as seen in the summit meeting of the Presidents of the US and Russia. Supporting this development is a conjunction of Mars and Venus in the 7th house indicating a peaceful marriage of sorts. This fortunate development will continue to unfold beyond the lunation period; relations with Russia appear to be entering a more optimistic road now. The developments between the US and Russia are coming to full view at the Full Moon eclipse on July 7th with the eclipse Moon in the 7th House at Washington showing that relations with foreign powers are now improving while the eclipse trine Saturn in the 3rd house says that the improvements will continue to develope through talks over time.

Over and against the above indications, we have to look at the charts of Iran and Afghanistan. It was 30 years ago that the Islamic Republic of Iran was started. Iran is just recently past her Saturn Return. Saturn in the chart for Iran is in the 1st house, i.e., the-house-of-the-people. Repercussions of the Islamic Revolution are being felt now; there is popular unrest , and this will lead to economic worries for Iran. It is also noteworthy that Jupiter in the Iranian chart is at 29 degrees Cancer in the 12th house. There will be a major solar eclipse on July 22nd at 29 degrees Cancer. This eclipse will cause plenty of disturbances in Iran affecting public institutions such as hospitals, schools, and prisons over the coming months. It is possible that a lot of people will be going to jail. It appears in the Iranian chart that disruptive events will come up in 2014 – 2015, more serious than what is happening at present and that will be happening later on this year and into next. As for Afghanistan, it was 29 years ago that Russia invaded. Repercussions stemming from that invasion will be felt this and next year due to the Saturn return cycle as well. The United States and Russia are now forming closer ties; the link to Afghanistan  is significant. In the Afghanistan chart Mercury is at 29 degrees Cancer in the 4th house. The solar eclipse on July 22nd will also register in Afghanistan negatively affecting the land, landed interests, and cash crops. There will be a concerted effort of the US and Russia to destroy the opium business in Afghanistan that will meet with hostile reactions of the Afghan farmers connected to the Taliban and related terrorist organizations.

The coming eclipses, especially the solar eclipse of July 22nd are pointing to a big earthquake, very probably in Asia as the eclipse will be visible there, especially in China. The solar eclipse at  29 degrees Cancer suggests a possible tsunami coming sometime in the weeks or months following the eclipse. The effects of a strong solar eclipse such as this one last at least one year during which there are bound to be periodic repercussions.

To go back a bit, the New Moon chart of June 22nd shows that there were a number of news-worthy deaths of celebrities in the entertainment field as well as fatal air crashes. This pattern, especially of air crashes over water, deserves watching as it may continue through the summer.

The Lunar Eclipse of July 07 is at 15 degrees Capricorn. A lunar eclipse in the middle of the sign Capricorn is said to bring incursions, assaults of soldiers, robberies and captivities. Countries and regions under Capricorn include India, Pubjab, Afghanistan, Macedonia, Greece, Albania, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Mexico and other places prone to violence at this time. The eclipse also suggests renewed pirate activity. The lunar eclipse also suggests that there will be an increase of US military activity. Uranus is in the 10th house in DC in the lunar eclipse chart. This means that there will be sudden and unexpected developments in Government circles which will require careful management. Nonetheless, it appears that the trouble, whatever it is, will be gotten around and averted.
