CLINGING TO YESTERDAY

There are many who can get caught up in the past and what once was.  They spend countless hours reminiscing and they wish they could go back to that time.  They think of those times as the good old days. 

Do you realize that this particular point in time will be the good old days in twenty years from now?  Rather than looking back at what once was, why would we not take a much closer look at what is, right now.  Look closely at what is right in front of you, in this moment and pay particular attention to what feels right.  We can be so accustomed to complaining about what we do not like or have that we ignore those things that we should be grateful for.

Time waits for no one and if we spend our lives living in the past or wishing we were there, we miss out on the eternal moment and the magnificence of what is happening now.  The moment is all we have and our attention to this is paramount. 

Do not spend another moment thinking about what was for what was is gone.  Do not waste your time worrying about what might come in the future for what we worry about seldom comes to fruition.  If you hold on to yesterday, you halt what potentially lies in today.  You cannot move forward without letting go of the past.  The past can include people, memories, wishes, dreams, ways of life ...anything that you tend to cling on to.

Live for today.  Experience your life by living it.  Do not waste time on yesterday.  Believe that you are entitled to be happy but remember that happiness can only be found in the present moment.  Believe in your potential for happiness.  This potential lies within your focus on all that is and this serves you well.  If life feels difficult, what is the lesson to be learned.  Once you are able to figure out the lesson, you can then acknowledge it and let it go. 

Enjoy the moments that you have.  Share them with those that matter. 

All the best in finding your way, to bringing into focus a wonderful today.

2017 FORECASTING FOR THOSE WITH SUN IN CAPRICORN

On December 28, 2016, we will touch on transiting Jupiter in aspect to natal Saturn as Saturn is the ruling planet of Capricorn.  Today, we will look at the semi-sextile between transiting Saturn and those with the Sun in Capricorn.  Saturn will be between 19 and 27 degrees Sagittarius until it goes retrograde on April 6, 2017.  It will remain in its retrograde motion until August 25 and during this period Saturn will move from 27 degrees to 21 degrees Sagittarius.  Anyone with their Sun in Capricorn between 19 and 27 degrees (also allow for one degree approaching -- 18 degrees and three degrees separating -- up to 29 degree Capricorn to 1degree Aquarius) will be affected.  You will have to use a very tight orb as this aspect is only strong within one degree of influence (some Astrologers use a 30 minutes influence).

Saturn, unlike all the other planets, because of its slow and deliberate action, actually has its most powerful influence when it is two degrees past direct.  All the other planets are most powerful when they are direct and then lose their strength a couple of degrees past the direct degree.

The Semi-Sextile is a 30 degree aspect and is also considered a minor aspect in astrological terms.  Many Astrologers believe the Semi-Sextile to be of insignificance unless there are other aspects influencing it.  The Semi-Sextile often adds to an already bigger picture having influence in an individual’s horoscope.  The Semi-Sextile does suggest an added significance of opportunities, sometimes being in the right place at the right time.  Although considered very minor, the potential for opportunities still exists during the very close timing of these aspects.

It should be noted that when planets are moving direct and not in their retrograde cycle, the energies are released and can be used to the individuals advantage or will play significant roles either from a positive perspective or in challenging conditions.  Saturn operates in a different manner than the other planets.  The direct cycle of Saturn at times can influence the unfolding of opportunities after a time of challenges and disruptions especially when the aspect is considered positive.  The more negative aspects like the square, conjunction and the opposition are usually much more challenging to deal with but also offer valuable lessons that can be used in the future to help facilitate growth on a very significant level.

When Saturn is in its retrograde cycle, which will be from April 5, 2017 until August 25, 2017, the energies of Saturn take on energies similar to that of the planet Jupiter.  Saturn unlike other planets when retrograde suggests action and moving forward.  Other planets when in a retrograde motion suggest contemplation and planning and it is suggested that we wait to act until the retrograde period has ended with all planets but Saturn.  The normal cautionary conditions that apply when Saturn is not in retrograde motion are relaxed and past conditions are brought to the forefront.  These highlighted conditions can be used to your advantage during the retrograde period. 

For example, if you have been setting up a proposal and have been working on it diligently, during the retrograde cycle you may be able to proceed and actually achieve what you have set out to do.  Of course you will also have to take into consideration what other factors might be influencing this in the chart.  But in general, Saturn’s energies of disciplined action and steadfast approach can be used efficiently during this cycle. 

Saturn often deals with your occupation and the goals you are setting in your life in a material sense, although it can also reflect a more spiritual context if Jupiter or Neptune are involved in the equation.  You could use the energies of Saturn especially during its retrograde cycle to move ahead in business oriented ways.

HAVE ANOTHER LOOK

Those that believe in reincarnation trust that they have spent many lifetimes gathering information to enhance their development and growth. 

No matter if we accept the concept of reincarnation or not, we are not here to be a mere spectator, standing by while life presents us with opportunities to assist in this material experience.  We are here to be a participant in our awakening, even a light to guide others to finding their own personal insight and meaning to their lives.

Many people become trapped within the idea that material wealth will satisfy their deep inner yearning for understanding.  Maybe for a few brief moments we may find some contentment or even excitement but this is short lived if what we are actually seeking is inner fulfillment.  Do not get me wrong.  There is nothing wrong with material wealth and it can certainly make the physical life a little easier but it will not make you feel complete or provide happiness, for these things cannot be bought.  We can become lost in the search unfortunately. 

If only we would stop looking outward for our fulfillment and answers.  Our investment in these things never seems to provide contentment for long and we keep striving for more.  We eventually come up feeling empty and ever reaching for our next peace of heaven only to find that it too does not satisfy. 

Look within for answers.  Live within the moment, without expectations of others. 

We sometimes have to reminder ourselves that we are spiritual beings living an earthly existence...nothing more, nothing less.  Be the listener.  Be the watcher, the one within who watches each event and who listens to the story as it unfolds.  We have never been lost!

We are the wealth that we are looking for.  We have heard others speak of the one within.  That is who we truly are.  We are not separate.  We are one with everything.  We resonate within the divine light of knowing.  We are pure energy momentarily using this physical form.  We are light!

SUN IN CAPRICORN

As we move from the high-minded, philosophical and optimistic energy of the Sagittarian, we now delve into the much more serious sign of Capricorn on the 22^nd day of December, 2016.  The message brought forward into the sign of Capricorn is to look at life from a more relaxed view point and always look at life from a positive perspective.  Capricorn, because of its no-nonsense approach to life, can use the high-minded approach as do Sagittarians, but Capricorn will have the central focus of doing things right the first time.  A true Capricorn individual believes that with the proper foundation in life, we can build that which is solid and lasting which can take us to higher ground.

This so called higher ground in the eyes of most Capricorns deals with success and applications that are workable and can be used to build on success.  They recognize the significance of hard work and are willing to persevere when many others would fall short.  The Capricorn’s goals are attainable as they push themselves forward regardless of what stands before them.  Capricorn is willing to wait for the opportune moment and then relentlessly work towards an end result.

In some cases, the end result might bring with it material benefits, advancement in employment or recognition for all the hard work that had to happen in order to reach that pinnacle.  Capricorn people are steadfast and reliable and come across as being quite adept at handling most anything that life throws their way.  They are generally not well suited for emotional drama, as they prefer to rationalize things out and deal with issues with a matter-of-fact attitude.  This makes them well suited for leadership roles in life and many managers have powerful Capricorn influences in their Astrology charts.

Capricorn individuals are the builders, the realists and the workers of the zodiac.  They are ruled by the planet Saturn known as the teacher and disciplinarian of the planetary energies.  It is no wonder that Capricorn individuals make sure that the high standards are followed to a tee due to the influence of the Saturn temperament.  Although Saturn does insist on working you hard for your end results, it also compliments your work ethics and rewards you for a job well done but only if you did not take shortcuts to reach that final outcome.

Capricorn does have a hard time relaying to others their own personal emotions.  Some appear rather cold and indifferent emotionally.  Some even seem like they are made of stone.  Do not be fooled by this.  Capricorn individuals can be very sensitive and have powerful emotions.  They just do not show them and they want to appear as if they have things under control, especially when it comes to their emotions.

In many ways, Capricorn individuals do have what it takes to succeed in life and we could all learn patience and drive from their example.  It will be quite interesting to see how this controlled, self-driven, motivated, cool headed sign of Capricorn will stacks up again our next humanistic eccentric, offbeat and futuristic Astrology sign to follow, Aquarius .

MAKE SOME MAGIC

We all have gifts to offer others.  When we discovered what our gifts are, we need not compare them to anyone else’s gifts.  Some gifts can be temporary; some gifts can be permanent.  Circumstances never stay the same and our gifts match up with what we are here to accomplish in the moment.

No one is more significant than anyone else.  We each have an important role to fulfill.  Other’s will offer us important contributions so it is important to pay attention when these are being offered.  Some people will come to us when the timing is right.  We should never question if we are doing it right or saying it right.  It will be perfect for that moment.

Go out into the world and make some magic today.  Do not wait to perfect some skill.  The time is always right.  We have our part to play.  It is time to play it.  Make things happen!

YULE - WINTER SOLSTICE

The Winter Solstice falls on December 21 at 5:44 a.m. in Toronto this year.  For your convenience, to check the exact time in your area we have provide a link - www.timeanddate.com/calendar/winter-solstice.html

December 21 will be the least amount of daylight we will experience in the northern hemisphere.  The sun is currently on a very low arc in the sky. 

The good news, the promise, is the light will soon return.  The arc will heighten and the days will slowly lengthen.  As nature sleeps and the light is low, we can reflect on our journey.  We can plan our intentions for when the energy and the light returns.  Mother nature always knows best.  Follow her example to rest and wait for the return of light, for the return of warmth, the return of the energy that nurtures us mentally, physically and spiritually.

Our current lesson is patience.  Utilize the wait to look in the shadows of self.  Bring light to the darkest corners of self.  Fill each corner with love and allow spirit to grow.

Is it coincidence that during Yule season (the rebirth of light), many celebrate the birth of Christ (the rebirth of salvation)?  This is a time of celebration for many, whether it is Yule, Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, etc.

We have much to celebrate.  Be filled with promise, with faith in all that is, with gratitude, with love and with light!

Blessings
