Testimonial JC, Barrie, ON

The astrology chart you typed up for me is one of the most accurate and most encompassing reflections I've encountered. So much so that I had to ask a family member she had given any information about me prior to you completing the chart. I found it took quite a few read-through's to understand and digest all of the information. I think the overall presentation of the booklet is very impressive. I enjoyed how you are able to write with clarity. I found that the precision of your writings is present amongst concepts that are vague and have blurred lines. It's interesting how you are able to use astrological methods to explain various faucets of life. I was wondering as well as how you are able to write with insight into various personality traits, and if you incorporate knowledge of psychic ability to accomplish this?

I was initially interested in getting an astrology chart done because I have found myself going through an interesting phase in life, and I feel like it is important for me to understand what I'm going through, in order to prepare for the future. This booklet put into words a lot of things I have been unable to explain, and has helped me understand more about myself. Reading this definitely made me more aware of limitations I may set upon myself, and increased my awareness of obvious personality traits that I choose to ignore. I think it helps to read something like this with an open mind and ability to accept oneself despite the reaction to the negative, and know there's always room for improvement.

Thank you for making this astrology chart for me.   I found it very insightful and should prove a useful tool.

Healthy Skeptic

When standing at a proverbial new threshold with key in hand, you may find that there are times when you question this unlocking.  Our life’s venture is entering a new awakening and the unknown can be frightening and questionable. 

It is healthy to question; however, never close the door; always keep it ajar if only a little.  Closing the door to potential will never allow any further development or understanding to take place.  It is quite acceptable to not blindly adhere to new events or information as they are presented.  Allow time for the seed to germinate, digest the information and then ask, does this event or concept resonate with me?

Questioning is the mind’s interference.  Simply relying on faith to open the door is not a customary step to take for many individuals.  Releasing self from old, passed-on beliefs and opening up to new possibilities allows the seeds of new knowledge to germinate.  A seed cannot germinate in hard packed soil.  Aerate the hardpan and allow the seed the time it needs.  Our belief structures are the hardpan.  They can rob us of growth.  Non-judgement is the tool used to aerate.  Knowledge comes in.  Allow the time required for germination.  If it turns out to be a weed, you can then pull it from your life’s garden.  If it turns out to be an exotic plant, enjoy the fruits of its branches.

Much of the internal interference we experience is generally ego interruption or ego interrogation.  This is the normal function of the ego.  It is in place to protect us, at times.  We understand that the ego fights for dominance.  It fears change and the thought of losing control.  Ego will, therefore, fight to maintain its control and create fear of the unknown.

As we venture through new doorways, we continually uncover deeper facets of our being.  We begin to understand that our fears block new information that is being revealed to us from many different sources. 

The ability to recognizing the ego and the interference it can create can be difficult in the beginning, but the more familiar we become with its personality, the more readily we will recognize the lock doorways it is trying to create.

Once we have put ego in its place and have allowed the seed of knowledge to grow, the door slowly begins to open.  We should throw open the door as though we are children entering an adventure park for the first time.  We can enjoy the excitement of the new knowledge and the venture it will take us on.  We may still question but we begin to acknowledge that there really is something beyond that which we have been taught.  This is where faith begins to awaken and we make our way past the bondage that has held us back for years.  We venture forth unknowing what lies ahead in careful anticipation of locating a part of our being and spiritual makeup that has been locked away until now.

Sagittarius

The Sun will enter the sign of Sagittarius on the 23^rd of November this year.  This post will apply to those individuals born with the Sun or Rising Sign (and to a lesser extent, those with the Sun in the ninth house) in the sign of Sagittarius.  REMEMBER, the Sun (the inner person) and Rising Sign (our face to the world) are just a portion of the representation of the full individual.

Sagittarius is the adventurer, the seeker and the eternal optimist.  Those with strong Sagittarius tendencies are the philosophers of our world.   They have an innate knowledge of religious doctrines or at the very least an inclination and adaptation towards this area of life and the ability to share this knowledge with the world around them.

When life gets tough, you will surely find the typical Sagittarian forever pursuing and spreading an outlook that promises a brighter future.  Sagittarius is the eternal optimist and has good intentions.  They will assist those in need and will promote a positive approach to all of life and every corner that life reaches.  They are forever on the road of “better things just lie ahead”; and although they are often quite content with their life’s direction, they never stop reaching for the top of the mountain.

They are the philosophers of life and are ready to present a different approach to life with an ingrained knowledge that supersedes their education.  Many are on the pursuit of knowledge and will gain much in their advanced schooling.  Even those without formal education will seek to gain knowledge through life’s experiences.  There are many politicians and clergymen who have strong Sagittarius inclinations in their charts, as well as judges, writers and adventurous people who love to travel to foreign lands and learn primitive cultures in order to attain some of the previous knowledge and make that part of their repertoire. 

Many Sagittarius individuals are great lovers of the outdoors, nature walks, camping and exploring.  Sagittarius is the roamer.  Sagittarius individuals are one with nature.  They uncover nature’s secrets and exploring all of its facets.  Let them roam and you open their door to happiness and excitement.  House them indoors and restrict their freedom and you have a stranglehold on the adventurous spirit that needs to be set free.

Most Sagittarius people are well spoken and will provide you with their point of view on many subjects.  They have an inability to keep their mouths shut when wanting to express themselves.  Foot-in-mouth disease found its place within the Sagittarius expression.  They seldom have bad intentions but do speak their minds.  They could contemplate a little bit more before they open up.  This would result in less challenges by others who have their own opinions.

Sagittarians are a kind and caring people, always ready to lend a helping hand both physically and emotionally.  They have the good of everyone in mind.  These individuals challenge us to look outside the box and to find optimism and grandeur when there is little hope of finding it.

Make a Sagittarius your friend and be ready for communication and a life of adventure.  There will seldom be dull moments although they can be subject to deep introspection and times of quiet.  Enjoy your Sagittarius friend as they will always be at your side, ever encouraging you onward and forward in your life’s quest.

Healing through Spirit

There are numerous alternative methods for healing, however, many individuals are uncomfortable or doubtful of the value of such practices.  The mainstream population utilize the services of physicians who prescribe drugs that all too often mask symptoms that are messages our bodies are sending us. 

Without question, there are drugs that allow our bodies to function more easily or with less pain and they allow our bodies to cope with disease on a day to day level.  Much of our true healing however occurs on a subconscious level.

Cancer, for example, was not so long ago in most cases a death sentence but modern medicine is and has changed that.  The practice of medicine has come a long way and has certainly saved many lives and prolonged many more. 

We live in an exciting and amazing time with medicine today.  How fortunate we are to experience these breakthroughs and to have the opportunity to add longevity and quality of life if we choose to look after our bodies and care for their needs.

There are also alternate healing methods – as simple as positive thinking, which is known to have profound effects on those with Cancer.  The second simple tool we have at our disposal is controlling the quality and quantity of what we feed our bodies.  Other healing tools available are modalities include Reiki - holistic therapy which brings about healing on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels through energy.  Alternative healing methods such as Reiki have been with us for several thousand years and they still hold a significant place in our world.  It has been said that such practices would never have survived without there being some merit to their healing properties.

As we mature into our life and begin to understand the power of the mind, we learn to channel our energies into more wholesome avenues of expression.  Many have come to terms with the understanding that we create our world through our thought process and belief structures.  How powerful this manifestation actually is will unfold as we continue our path towards attaining this understanding and using it in our lives. 

As we mature spiritually, we learn to focus our attention towards positive affirmations and practice a more deliberate mind focus.  We learn our own personal art and we are unfolding as the healing takes place within us.  As we heal internally we manifest this healing into our outside world.  Positive reinforcement and following some of the more idealistic practices including the wide spread use of meditation has not only opened up channels to the metaphysical and psychic realms, but it spreads into our very being through each step we take in this ongoing process.

It is exciting to think of the future of mankind if we follow these practices available to each of us.  Where will the human race be in one hundred years from now?  What volume of healing will be transmitted via inner channels of expression?  How will medicine be altered by these practices?  What will the future hold for those that practice these healing methods on a regular basis?

Life is an unfolding story, and is ever expanding.  It is continually awakening our consciousness and reminding us of the talents and knowledge we have sleeping within, just waiting to be wakened.  Listen to the little voice within and follow its guidance.  Where will that little voice take you?

Emotions

There are times when we simply have to sit down, acknowledge and come to terms with life’s events.  We have a need to try to rationalize these events and ultimately, we must accept all terms and conditions. 

This is not always an easy task, but one that must be faced and carried out.  We have to stand back, digest and accept to the best of our abilities.    Sudden, unexpected events can push us to experience many different emotions.  We deny; we experience anger; we unjustly lay blame believing that these responses might eliminate our sorrow and at the very least ease the burden.  We look for avenues to release the sorrow that blankets our existence.

It is in these times of extreme stress and utter sadness that we find resilience that we never knew existed.   Allowing and then letting go of hurt is a difficult task but one that is achievable.  As devastating as some life event can be, life does still carries on.  Grief can cause us to view our lives as empty but if we take a good look, we are surrounded by so many that truly care.  Embrace the support we receive, but realize that only we can heal our wounds.  We will somehow muster each ounce of energy required to get through the days yet to come and we will foster a resilience and inner fortitude that will carry us forward.

The support we require will come in different levels.  Our inner strength will rise to the surface and we will eventually come out stronger and intact once again.  Stand tall knowing that we have what it takes and we will revamp ourselves as we move through these tumultuous conditions.   We heal with every breath of life we take. 

Be thankful for the different forms of support and caring you receive.  Please know that we are!

Time to Heal

In light of the passing of our daughter, we will be taking a little break from our posts for the next little while.

We would like to thank the wonderful circle of family and friends for all of their support, love and prayers during this difficult time.

We know in our hearts that the spirit of Leigh is eternal. She is the one that now is truly living. She is undoubtedly rejoicing the freedom from the restraints of human conditioning and her physical vehicle.

Many during her lifetime have learned from her positive attitude, her determination and her adaptability simply through the example she set.

We were blessed to have the moments that we shared with her.

Transiting Pluto in the Seventh House

As with all transits, the Planet has its strongest effects as it enters into the house and passes over the cusp.  Pluto in this position and moving into the seventh house is a very powerful placement as you can well imagine.  Pluto’s energy is subtle at first (unless there are other planets that are natally located on this cusp and Pluto conjuncts them at the same time).  The effects will vary depending on the energy of the planet on the cusp, but remember, Pluto is all about transformation.

In the seventh house, the main influence deals with transformation within close personal relationships, love relationships or business relationships.  Often we experience a crisis or turning point when Pluto moves into these positons and any relationship that is not on solid ground has the potential of coming to an end. 

Any and all relationships will require an adjustment and often there will be long held secrets or issues that have been buried in the past that now surface and will have to be dealt with accordingly.

Some will meet people during this time that come into their life and cause change (usually on a grand scale although subtle in the beginning).  It usually takes time for you to understand the effects of these people, but in general they come into your life to help you to have a closer look at how you are living your life and especially within the framework of your close relationships. 

Some find this period very challenging and will seek professional help.  This is often a good thing to do, but you have to understand that no one does the work for you.  It will still be in your hands and you will have to make the adjustments.  Remember your outer world is a reflection of what is taking place within including personal belief structures and ideologies.  If your world is upside down, you may have to make some changes to your life and your pattern of thinking.

These transformations can also deal with open enemies and business partnerships.  During this time, you will have to have a close look at how things are running in this area of life.  Watch for deceitful behaviour coming from others as you may be on the receiving end or vise-versa you may be the one doing this injustice.  It is suggested, however, that you play within the rules of fair play during this time because Pluto is all about struggle and especially when it comes to power.  Life has a way of rebounding and putting whatever you put out into the world right back in your own hands.  Live life accordingly.

It might be suitable just to live your life under careful scrutiny and make changes to your life as things occur or demand attention. 

Any relationships that makes it through this transformation will come out stronger and on a much more solid foundation when this transit moves past this critical degree.  It should however be pointed out that transformations are always necessary and one should view this period as a chance to learn a valuable lesson about relationships and make changes accordingly.
