Coincidence?

It is suggested that we pay particular attention to the significant events that transpire in our daily lives.  This may refer to someone coming into our lives for a specific reason or an incident taking place that somehow seems co-incidental to that which is transpiring in our lives in this particular moment. 

Have you noticed that there are times in life when you are speaking to someone and having a relatively normal conversation when out of nowhere they just seem to say something that makes you stop for a moment and ponders its deeper meaning?  This can come at any time and from anyone.  It does not have to be during a deep conversation.  In many cases, the life changing information comes out of the blue and is rarely expected.  It may even come from someone that you would never expect it to come from, such as a child or passing stranger.

It is important to remain open to these valued moments, but at the same time, we cannot look for them.  They usually happen when they are least expected, but somehow when we receive the information, we know that what is offered to us has great meaning, far more than the messenger realizes. 

Sometimes these “openings”, if you will, do come during deep conversation with informed individuals and when we are learning something of significance, we know it on an instinctual level.  Most times the information fueling our awakenings is via higher realms and the messenger is not even aware of the significance of their message.  The information comes from many channels and on many different levels.

As mentioned, it is wise to not get caught up in trying to initiate these moments.  They will happen when the time is appropriate and not a minute before.

In most cases, no one else hearing the conversation will experience the same enlightenment and even if we try to translate or restate the message to others, it is a wasted effort as the message was meant for us and us alone.  Sharing this experience or information is fine, but certainly not necessary.

Many will define these brief moments as coincidence and they will often just let them pass by with little focus.  There is no such thing as a coincidence in reality.  Almost without exception every event in our lives has some level of importance.  We should never allow the experience and the information to simply pass us by.  Of course the actions taken during these relevant times in our lives are always up to us.  We can deal or not deal with the situations and the information as we choose. 

In order to continually move forward in our journey, when someone or something (information) enters our lives regardless of how short or long the duration, in it beneficial to pay heed.  If we truly listen to what others have to say to us (so many individuals are busy during conversations thinking about what their responses will be instead of truly digesting the information offered), we will continue to grow.  Each and every conversation we participate in has valuable information for us.  Nothing is by chance.

Sun in Gemini

The Sun moves into the sign of Gemini on the 22 of May in 2015.  Gemini is a mutable sign and rules the third house.  Those that have the Sun in Gemini, the Ascendant in Gemini and Planets located in the third house will resonate with some of the following characteristics.  If you find that some of these qualities do not apply to you, there will be other strong influences in your birth chart that moderate some of the Gemini characteristics or which may overpower them.

Those with strong Gemini in their birth charts are known to be versatile and adaptable and find it easy to move from one topic or event to another.  They enjoy being on the move and love change and variety in their lives.  It takes a lot to keep a typical Gemini entertained for long periods of time.  If you are trying to find something that stimulates their attention, you will need to activate their busy minds with things that arouse their intellect.

Gemini love to explore different facets of life.  They are adventurous and easily stimulated but have a short attention span, so you will have to keep them entertained with many topics to hold their attention for extended periods.  They need stimuli and variety in life or they become bored.  They are busy people and love to stay on the go most of the time.  Travel and education are areas of life that hold their attention.  You will enjoy time spent with them while on vacations and sharing learned knowledge through communication.

Communication is the key to much of their happiness and the majority of Geminians have some knowledge on a variety of subjects.  The only problem is that they scatter their energies so much that they rarely have deep knowledge on anything specific.  They like to skim the surface on many subjects and can be quite knowledgeable on many varied subjects.  They know a little about almost anything.  If they were able to keep their focus on one subject for an extended period of time, they would be amazed at how much information they could gather and how extensive this knowledge could become.

Geminians’ beliefs are subject to change. 

Those with strong Gemini in their charts can begin to read a book, be quite entertained by its contents and find the information fascinating but it is not always that they will complete this book.  If something else draws their attention, they can easily be swayed off topic and move to something in a completely different direction from what they were doing just prior.  They truly believe that variety is the spice of life.  These individuals make great companions if you want variety and adventure in your daily life.  You will not have a chance to become bored and you can spend much of the conversation time listening to what they have to say about most any subject.

Life has to be exciting and stimulating and should be adventurous and even extreme at times.  If this is how life is, they would be quite happy.  They are intellectual and love conversations on many levels.  They will never be short on words or information and usually retain quite a bit of information during these intermittent explorations. 

Gemini is a very inquisitive sign and they are also very interested in their own personal lives.  Many will read this post, partly for entertainment and partly from being inquisitive and wanting to learn more about themselves.

Gemini people are changeable but they are also adaptable to these changes.  They are ready for almost anything and will be willing to venture far and wide both physically and mentally to learn more of what life has to offer.  Geminians will be quite willing to share themselves and their lives with those that matter to them.

How Can We Help?

As innocent and pure of heart that we may be, it has to be acknowledged that there are dangers in this world.  There is always the potential for violence and disruption to the relative calm we experience in our day to day routines.  There are individuals who are violent in nature and certainly lost in their perceptions.  Many of these individuals have never had experiences of true bliss and tranquility that many of us experience due to our practices and efforts.

We are very fortunate that our experiences have opened the doorway to greater understanding and these experiences offer peace in our lives. 

All too often violent individuals practice less than ideal behaviours often brought forward from childhood.  Unfortunately, they live a life of turmoil and sorrow.  This has been the “normal” experience and they know little else.

Some reach out to our world looking for support and love only to find aggression, offensive conditions and violent behaviours which are regularly directed towards them.  How can we help these individuals and lead them into the light of consciousness without putting ourselves into harm’s way? 

We have the potential to change their lives through volunteer work, counselling, financial assistance or recognition and kindness. 

Through loving examples we can prove that there is more to life than their “normal”.  That people do care about others.  Without compassion and caring, these individuals could live out their entire lives living in fears of others, bathed in anxiety and knowing nothing more than to fight to survive.  Many end up in jail for crimes committed and violent behaviour.  This environment does nothing to break their understanding of fighting to survive.

Hatred and fear does not correct anger and violence.  Violence does not solve violence.  If we had the opportunity to show love and caring to someone who has never experience love and caring, would you seize to the moment? 

We can help move these individuals out of their learned behaviours simply by being an example of something different.  Be that example.  Provide hope and love to those that do not believe that these gifts exist.

Inner Transiting Planets in Astrology

There are some Astrologers that write daily posts concerning the inner transiting planets and their affect on your overall development.  They speak in general terms on how they affect you in your day-to-day life and exaggerate their actions.  These references are far too general and without knowing the houses of involved, it is impossible to speak of the area of life influenced.  These transiting planets are relatively neutral in their actions within your horoscope.

Mercury, Venus and Mars all move approximately one-half to two degrees per day.  The orb of significant influence in a chart is about 5-6 degrees, approximately 3-4 degrees applying and then 2-3 degrees when separating.  Therefore, the influence of each planet is roughly 2-3 weeks at best and accordingly, the strongest influence would be one to two days.

In order for these planets to have an impact in your life, they would have to cross one of the angles, (the ascendant or midheaven and to a lesser degree the IC and DC).  They would also have an impact if you had a Stellium or several planets in the same degree.  Without this, their influence would be very fleeting in nature and they generally pass with little affect noticed.

Mercury goes retrograde usually 4 times each years and it lasts about 2-3 weeks while in orb and then goes direct again. 

Venus does not go retrograde very often.  Venus went retrograde on December 21, 2013, and turned direct again on the last day of January 2014.  Venus will not go retrograde again until July of 2015. 

Mars rarely goes retrograde, but moves into retrograde motion on April 2 of this year and remains in retrograde motion until it goes direct on May 21, 2015.  Mars will not go into retrograde motion again until April of 2016.

During these retrograde periods with any of these planets, their affects will be experienced for a longer period of time and usually it is somewhat strengthened.  The influence is felt or experienced again when it crosses the same degree while moving direct.  If the angles in your chart are in these degrees, you will experience the energies of these planets more intensely but once again for a relatively short lived time frame. 

Once again when these retrograde planets pass over a Stellium or planets in the same degree, their influence will again become known to the individual concerned.

These influences are generally minor in nature except when in retrograde and rarely used in comparison to long term transits.  The outer planets, because of their slow movement, can be felt for years and have a great impact in our lives. 

Transiting Mars and sometimes the transiting Sun are used as timers for major events linked to the outer transits or progressions.  In order to ascertain accurate trends and occurrences in your life, an accurate birth time is essential.  The time of birth indicates the placements of the planetary positions in each house at birth.  Transits determine potential events.  Therefore, when you read your daily horoscope on the internet, understand that this is an extreme case of generalization.  These horoscopes deal strictly with common character traits, at best, for any given Sun sign.  

A true Astrological chart report is drawn up from your specific date, time and place of birth and as such is a very specific and individual report.

The Road to Discovery, Part II

Today we are continuing from Friday with our looking at our road to discovery.  As mentioned we slowly begin to recognize the difference between our imagination and actual messages of truth from our higher self, our guides, our source, etc.

Most of us find it difficult to have patience.  We will need to stay open and to let the information and awareness enter as it will.  Once we make the decision to continue on this quest for truth and the door opens, which it will, be patient.  There will be no turning back. 

The biggest lesson that many individuals on this route has to learn is patience.  Nothing happens until it is meant to happen.  We cannot rush things.  One thing is for sure the truth is available to everyone if they choose to open that door, no exceptions. 

There are many living the life of illusion.  The material world has them caught up completely and they see nothing else beyond that.  Because of this, there will be days that we feel so alone, longing for someone to share our wealth of information with.  However as we progress, we will naturally draw others to us with similar interests and belief structures as our own.

It is a magnificent journey we have embarking on.  Periodically take time to stop and realize just how fortunate you to have your awareness. 

It does not, however, always work in ways that are easy.  As a matter of fact it is a challenging road, especially silencing the ego and keeping your focus on the greater good.  In the beginning during our major adjustments to our lives and during the discovering period of our qualities that we might not like too much, it is especially challenging.  With practice and change and when it becomes clear that the ego is the only thing that makes us feel uncomfortable, it is much easier to understand our road and the why behind our life’s journey.

Stay alert.  Live in the moment.  Always enjoy life and the opportunities it offers.  Realize that gratitude and enjoyment is a choice.  Help others as much as possible.  Love completely.  Be contentment.  These are the true gifts of living our earthly existence.  The door is wide open all you have to do is take that first step.

The readings are 40 minutes in length and they are being offered at a discounted rate of $50 for the readings at Positive Pathways. A portion of this fee will be donated to Positive Pathways not-for-profit organization to purchase items for the Children in Peru.
