As an intuitive Astrologer, I love to share my astrological knowledge acquired over years of study and hands on chart preparation. I believe that in order to experience growth along our earthly journey that spirituality should be blended into our daily living. As a result, I also share my "Food for Thought" writings which are inspirationally received. "You can accomplish anything in life if armed with the right attitude & tools. My wish is to provide a useful tool."

HEALING POTENTIAL
What would it take for us to find a place
of peace.... a place of being in alignment?
Our mental and emotional feelings of contentment
either become enriched or slowly deteriorate due to our focus it affects our
various states of being. Our input and
attitude have complete impact on how we feel and what we are able to
orchestrate into our world.
We cannot expect to be healthy or have
regenerative potential if we are coming from a place of dis-“ease”. We are not open to the power of healing when
we are stuck in an attitude that projects negativity in our world for this attitude
only serves to hinder our lives.
If we are blaming specific situations in
our lives for standing in the way of finding peace and contentment, we have to
do something to change these situations or change our attitude towards the
situations in order to make life unfold on a more promising fashion. If it is the people around us that we blame
for standing in our way of happiness, then we have to do something to change how
we look at their influence on our lives.
Perhaps we need to move away from their influence or redirect our perception
of who they are or what they are doing.
In most cases, a change of attitude is all that is needed and we do not
have to do something dramatic to change how we feel about their influence in
our lives.
We have the ability to change life’s
direction with our thoughts, but if there is physical, emotionally or mental
injury, it would be best to remove ourselves from their influence. If we are simply frustrated at life in
general, be sure to reflect on the real causes of our unhappiness before we
take drastic steps to correct issues that can be corrected simply by changing
our attitudes.
The body reacts to both internal and external
stimuli. Our attitude and external
events or circumstances influence our lives.
Taking the necessary time to reflect is imperative. Once we have taken an honest look at our circumstances,
we can make an informed decision as to what steps we might need to take.
We are never in a place where we can do
nothing to help ease or alleviate uncomfortable or undesirable conditions. Often the answer is not as challenging as the
situation might first appear and a minor adjustment is all that is needed.
We are in control of our lives. Life is not controlling us unless we allow it
to. Attitude and belief structure along
with expectations are always ours to change.

ALL THE RIGHT REASONS
Stop for a moment to take in all that
surrounds you in your daily living. What
in life creates the push that is the basis for how you live? Is it a desire to make things happen the way
you want them too? Do you live your life
for others or is this life self-directed?
Have you found something you want to share? Are you in a place that assists you in
sharing these things?
What truly makes you push forward in your
life? Do you really want life to direct
you or are you the director of your own personal journey? Are you being directed or lead by a higher
source? Do you willingly follow this
prompting?
We all need purpose and it is necessary to
know that we are in line with our objectives.
Some of us recognize that we are also being assisted from a higher
source and that the direction being offered is always for our higher good.
If we live our lives with the purpose to
serve others and always put ourselves last, this practice perhaps feels
righteous, but is this for our general good?
Should we always place others ahead of ourselves?
Our goal, when it comes to helping others,
is to help them achieve a state of happiness, but if you are not happy
ourselves how can we lead by example? We
have to help ourselves together with others.
It is a snowball effect. We will
never experience true satisfaction and happiness by only satisfying the
self. There will always be a feeling
that something is missing. If we can
blend self love and help through love and action for others, we will find true
happiness.
If we find peace within (and this cannot be
found from outside of self) we indeed have something of great value to share. We have rediscovered something that will not
only benefit others, but will enhance our lives as well. When we utilize the energies that influence
us positively, we resonate these energies to others. It is then that the time is ripe for sharing.
We should remind ourselves of whom we truly
are on a deep, inner level. The self
that we relate to undoubtedly is in part ego and in part spirit or soul. Learn to differentiate between the two. By letting go of our ownership of ego and not
identifying with its intent, we do not allow ego to obscure our vision of self
or take us to places that we do not wish to go.
If we stand firm to our commitment to be happy and at peace, we are the
messenger and deliverer of happiness and peace.

WHY WOULD I HAVE A TRANSIT & PROGRESSION CHART PREPARED?
In Astrology the Natal or birth chart is a
snapshot of the heavens at the instant of birth with the planets frozen in time. The planets, their placement and their angles
to each other and specific points in our natal chart tell the individual’s
story.
Once we are born, the planets continue
their movement around the zodiac or birth chart. The birth chart or natal chart placements,
however, remains intact for our lifetime.
The movement of planets after our birth is known as transits and
progressions. We will not go into detail
on these interlinking movements in this post, but suffice to say the movement
of planets and the stationary planets of our birth chart will make aspects to each
other and will tell a story of their own.
When these moving planets align with natal
planet placements (and much depends on the overall condition of the natal
chart), areas of your life defined by the house positions of the transits and
progressions as well as the house positions of the planets in the natal chart
are activated and life, events and reactions begins to unfold. This unfolding is experienced on an intuitive
level at first when the transiting planets begin forming an aspect (angle
between these links) and then can be experienced on an external level through events
as the energies become enhanced by the joining up of other planetary influences.
Astrology can pinpoint when these areas of
life will become activated, how it may affect you. However much depends on the attitude you take
during the activity and the duration of its effects on your life. Astrology prepares you for this upcoming
energy entering your life and can provide you with clues as to how to deal with
the energies and events or take advantage of what may transpire over the coming
periods involved.
Astrology can be used as a tool and a guide
to assist you to overcome obstacles, to assist you to prepare for periods in
life when things may not run so smoothly but also to prepare you for times when
great opportunities will be laid in front of you. These opportunities may not materialize if
you do not recognize the prospects that are awaiting you. Astrology gauges the energies of the activity
and provides you with suggestions on how to utilize these energies as they
enter your life.
For those wishing to take advantage of these
early signs and use astrology as a guiding principle in their lives, astrology is
a viable “advertisement” of opportunities to come, both the easy flow and the
harder lessons. Transits and
Progressions offer a window of seeing rather than being blind sighted by events
and not being prepared when you could have an upper hand.
Astrology is a tool of reference that can
be applied in many areas of life. The
birth chart provides the initial backdrop suggesting who you are and how you naturally
cope with life and take advantage of opportunities that come your way. Astrology’s guidelines are not written in
stone as we have free will and can react to any given situation in our own
way. It is however a tool to assist us
in making life unfold with less resistance and with more personal awareness.
We have the tools available in life to
overcome any adversity and also to take advantage of all opportunities. Astrology is one of these. With your own personal decisions combined
with information provided by astrology, we can direct our life and enjoy the
natural flow. Take advantage of the information
astrology provides and have a leading role in your ever unfolding journey.

TRANSITING NEPTUNE CONJUNCT NATAL MARS
Mars’ and Neptune’s energies do not blend overly
well with one another. Mars’ energies
can be aggressive, dynamic and even a bit impulsive. Neptune’ energies are soft and gentle. Neptune strives to slow down aggression and
impulse and pushes you to connect with something higher. Neptune discourages any ego impulse. It seeks purity and focuses its energies into
directions that assist others. Mars is
drive and ambition and is often self-directed which usually involves the ego.
Since Neptune puts a vail of fog over
anything it touches, you will have to watch for being mislead or misdirected. Neptune can be deceitful at times as what you
see may not be what is. Mars wants to
direct energy into self-serving areas.
If however you manage to persuade Mars to channels its energies into
constructive, mystical pursuits or spiritual insight, you will blend more
appropriately with Neptune’s influence, although this may be a challenging
thing to do.
Neptune will not push its way into being. It acts in a peaceful manners and knows that
enlightenment is not something that can be pushed into existence. Its energies flow when the time is right. We cannot push hard to achieve mystical
understanding, although we can direct our energy in the appropriate directions.
We have to move ourselves in the
appropriate direction because we enjoy this way of life and truly want this to
be a part of our life. Once we have
surrendered ourselves, only then will we catch a glimmer of what we are looking
for. There can be no ego connection in
our spiritual unfolding. Any eagerness
to succeed may hinder the results and this is a challenge for Mars as it wants
to direct its energies and channel it in ways that will assist in reaching its
goals.
Be sure to take care of yourself during
this transit as there is potential for the weakening of the body and its
function. Moderate exercise programs are
suggested and eating a proper diet is equally as important.
Neptune can have the tendency to deplete our
energies and anything that is rigorous and too stressful will tax us physically. Neptune also rules drugs and alcohol as well
as prescription drugs. We should be very
warry of using any of these substances during Neptune’s stay with Mars. Any kind of upper or stimulant should certainly
be avoided. The body is very sensitive. We should also watch for poisoning the body
by mixing drugs and using them in inappropriate manners. Substance abuse is a real danger during this
aspect.
Channeling the energies will be the
greatest issue during this aspect, but if we can find time to meditate and
contemplate living for the greater good, we will have done our
best at directing these energies appropriately.

HAVE FAITH IN YOUR OWN ABILITIES
When we find ourselves in a troubling
situation or experiencing a challenging state of mind, understand that we have
the ability to rise above any conditions in our lives. It does not matter what we are faced with, we
can overcome anything. We have the
ability to change any circumstances.
Recognize the inner strength that we have and
once recognized, we can use these strengths to our advantage. We have a lot more strength than we know and
we are always provided with what we need.
Each of us can detach ourselves from events. If we do not own events, they cannot affect
us deeply. We are human and are
influenced with events BUT we do not have to stay attached that influence. The
choice is ours if we are going to get caught up in events or learn from the
experience and move on. All events, are
stepping stones, or learning tools. We
master the lesson and from that we gain strength and confidence. We learn from these events that we are resilient.
All lessons mirror learning to ride a bicycle. We learn the ability to ride and can carry
this ability through life. It is simply
the first try that is difficult and sometimes it takes a little more time to
learn but we do learn and can enjoy that ability afterward. These talents now can be used for enjoyment
or with purpose.
Life can be an enjoyable ride. Learn to use the tools and equipment
available to us and make the experience pleasing. Pick up the pieces of life and ride on. Enjoy what it has to offer and we will meet
many others that share that same road with us.
