Aries – (March 20 – April 18) You are called by your courage this month, Aries. Your fearless nature will be tested as your ruing planet, Mars, interacts with Pluto (July 2^nd) and Uranus (July 17). Do whatever you must to maintain balance and stability; this includes healthy food, moderate exercise, and getting enough rest. Being centered and grounded is your key to success. Name it, claim it; and step up to the plate.    Continue reading →

Meditate upon the meaning this card might have for you since it showed up here. Not everyone saw this. Not everyone attracted this message. YOU DID. There are no mistakes.

Introduction: Justice deals with the idea of karma and the law of cause and effect, stating that all events, and all people, are connected. It’s important to remember that not everything you are dealing with, however, is a direct result of your own actions or karma. Sometimes you will be called upon to deal with the results of the actions of someone you care about, and this can sometimes be as difficult and demanding as it is when you’re up against something that is completely of your own making. Don’t blame yourself unnecessarily.

General: This card evokes the need for fairness, balance, and harmony. Operate in as balanced and reasonable a fashion as you can. This includes in how you think about and treat yourself. If you are directly involved with a court case, it is likely to be resolved, at least in large degree, in your favor.     Continue reading →

Meditate upon the meaning this card might have for you since it showed up for you at this exact moment.   Not everyone saw this.  Not everyone attracted this message onto their monitor.  YOU DID. There are no mistakes.

MEANING: Temperance is a card about balance and relationships of all kinds, they all need your attention. You may have to try several approaches to things before you find what is right for you. Although your relationships are likely to be going well, you may need to look at your deeper personal issues and see if or how these are standing in your way. And if they are, how to work through them and integrate them. The idea now is to do what it takes to find balance, in yourself, in your relationships, and with your goals and aspirations.

So remember yesterday I woke up having had a dream (I dream about Martin Schulman — coincidence?) and found a new message on my blog? I wondered if I had the dream because her message was there waiting for me. I replied to the message and later noticed an email from her. She briefly mentioned her study interests and they coincided with my own, down to being a writer and fellow devotee of Sai Baba. She graciously sent me a pdf of a book she’s written about her awakening experiences. I love how the Universe arranges these meetings according to our vibrational resonance.

When we begin to see each other through what the metaphysician calls the third eye, we begin to know each other on a level that is beyond what our physical eyes can see. — Marianne Williamson

This morning I dreamed I was in a fascinating conversation with astrologer Martin Schulman, author of the Karmic Astrology series. I checked to see what I had of his on my blog and found thru links that his source website was inactive. I was bummed because it had such good info. I saw I had a comment from the night before on the post asking about Schulman. So did I dream about Schulman because someone had (as yet unbeknownst to me) asked me a question and was waiting expectantly for an answer, or is it coincidence and synchronicity or something else?

Update: The next day

It’s disconcerting sometimes when typing in a program and my visual cues disappear. I can see the empty box where my icon is greyed out. So I remind myself I’ve done this many times before and even though I don’t see the icon there, I have faith that if I click the greyed out box I will have been correct. Our intuition is like that, we may get a hint of something but we have to move forward and have faith it’s the right move to allow the magic to unfold for us. We have to act as if it’s there because we know it’s there whether we can see it or not. Don’t be thrown off balance when all your visual clues disappear. That’s just your inner eye unfolding.

Friends say they’re amazed that I do Horizons Magazine on my own when other local publications list staff and volunteers. The layout and design part of it is easy — time consuming but easy. The administrative part of it (billing for ads, maintaining corporate docs) also time consuming but easy. It’s in the chasing of the advertising dollars that the real work lies so I leave that to the other local publications. Horizons was never designed to create income. It pays for itself but my income is derived elsewhere. If I had staff selling ads, the magazine would be much bigger. Ten years ago — when I was very visible attending and working conferences — the magazine was 64 pages, half of them ads. Now it’s half that and I appreciate the smaller size. It’s less work. I’ve had many of the same advertisers and subscribers for 20+ years. Horizons is not for everyone, it’s a little offbeat, it attracts some deep thinkers, visionaries, workers on the inner planes, those on the leading edge of thought. I’m thrilled to have gotten to know so many of them through the years, even if it’s just through Facebook.  If you’re on FB, find me and say hi!

A friend asked, “What’s the point of it all? If we’re going to just live and die, what’s the point of trying to achieve anything if it all turns to dust?”

The point is not achieving. The point is the emotional journey you take as you go this way and that, as you make this decision or that. The point is to follow emotional happiness. That is also how you serve yourself and your fellow man.  When you are filled with happiness, you exude a nonphysical ‘good’ into the environment and anyone around you has access to thoughts and feelings of happiness, not unlike accessing good thoughts from a collective thought bank.

Why bother to feel good ever if we’re going to eventually die?

Because those thoughts and emotions build up and follow you from lifetime to lifetime, making easier and happier future lives. I cope with life by training myself to have an interest in things around me, looking for the fun to be had, looking for the helpers, looking for the silver lining, looking for someone to give a kind word to, by training my self talk to keep me motivated and uplifted. That is my contribution to emotional well being on planet Earth. Your being here matters, your being happy matters, the happiness of others matter. Never think it’s pointless. Become an emotional missionary in this lifetime and follow happiness, feel happiness, collect happy thoughts and feelings so you can remember happiness when things are not so happy. Fill up your happy tank to overflowing, that’s how you silently help your self and your community. In this lifetime and the next.
