Locating Your Place of Serenity

After a hectic day performing all the necessary tasks to fulfill your commitments, whether it be a day spent at work outside of the home or a busy day working at home watching the children and doing the house chores, it is essential to have a place where you can retreat – a place to call your own.  Some prefer to take a walk outside viewing the garden and its beauty.  Some like to sit and turn on the television and watch their favourite show, while others need a place where they feel secluded and are able to review the day’s activity and recharge the emotional batteries.

 

You need some time to reflect on the day and whatever activity or lack thereof it takes to settle you down, this should be pursued.  If you find peace and solace through meditate or a walk in nature, take the time required to release any pent up emotion from the day’s workload and events.  It is important to release any tension and stress that you have throughout the day’ events.  Relax your mind.  A nature walk, meditation or a gentle musical interlude are all good ways to find that place of serenity that we all need to release.

 

Sharing the day’s events with a loved one or companion can also help you release and unwind after a busy day.  Even if all events of the day were positive and you are at peace with the events, share them with someone.  Release the joy and share the feelings you have about your day.

 

Each and every one of us has a need to release.  If after your release practice, you still feel restricted or obstructed, a listening ear or a strong shoulder will often help the situation and bring new light on subjects that just needed a different vantage point.

 

Finding your place of solitude is essential.  Each of us needs to release any emotions that are hindering our otherwise peaceful existence.  If you have had a wonderful day then share it as your feelings can also go along way on making others happy, simply by being and sharing with you.   Find your place of retreat, your place to unwind and continue or end your day free from any anxieties or stress.

Moon in Pisces in Astrology

The Moon in Pisces is an extremely sensitive sign placement and often provides people with the Moon in this sign or the Moon in the twelfth house with strong psychic inclinations.  They are very emotional in their nature and not very practical or earthy.  These individuals usually are apt to pursue a profession that involves caring for others or charity work.  Some view these sensitive individuals as spaced-out as they are often more in touch with what cannot be seen rather than being consumed by material possessions or professional advancement.

 

They are very deep people who unintentionally absorb other people’s feelings often mistaking these feels as their own.  This is something that they will need to work on in order to not become overwhelmed by the emotions of others.  They are psychic sponges and are also very compassionate souls who will need time alone to evaluate life’s circumstances and recharge their emotional batteries. 

They do not take well to insults or rejections of any kind.  They feel things deeply and neither take well to other people’s criticism nor overly aggressive individuals and their actions.  Their world is a feeling one and they can judge the environment before meeting anyone or knowing what is transpiring at any given time.

 

These people are gentle souls who genuinely care about others.  They are soft-hearted and because of this may be taken advantage of especially by those with sob stories.  They will have to learn (and probably the hard way) who is genuine and who actually needs their help.  You will find them involved in a spiritual cause or in religious groups and also in groups of like-minded people.

 

Many of these individuals find it very difficult to deal with some of life’s more tumultuous conditions and they have a desire to escape these life experiences.  Because of this, there are dangers of becoming addicted to drugs and alcohol in order to try to avoid these difficult situations that we all have to face at some point in our life.  Facing cold hard facts head on is often very trying and they will gain resilience and strength when they actually do try to cope with life’s hardships.

 

Because of their great sensitivity and strong imagination they are often able to decipher dreams and can use their gifts of psychic ability to assist those around them, as long as they learn how to separate themselves from others’ emotionally.  Their great imagination can also assist them in uncovering life’s mysteries and many use these talents and their emotional sensitivity to make great writers, poets, musicians and artists.

 

If you are looking for someone who will walk that mile in your shoes and share your most emotional experiences, these are the people that make great friends and the ones that will understand you when no one else seems to.

Be True to Yourself

There are many individuals that live their lives for others--rarely thinking of their own needs and always putting other’s needs ahead of their own.  These are admiral qualities to say the least, but while they are busy helping everyone else they are forgetting that they also have needs.  How can we truly be of service if we are not looking after our own needs? 

 

You have to be true to yourself first and look after what is important to you.  If you spend your life neglecting yourself for the sake of others, will you find contentment in service?  Is it wrong to look after your own needs? 

 

Life is meant to be shared and if you truly want to share your life with others, perhaps to perform at your best, you have to have an honest look at how you feel.  Is your life complete and are you getting what you need?  It certainly is necessary to think of your own personal needs.  This is not being selfish.  It is important to look after yourself and your life’s requirements.

 

If you are living your life just for others, what is left for you?  How can you truly be of service to others if you feel incomplete or dissatisfied with life’s conditions?  You have to be happy within and content with your life.  This cannot be found through others.  It can only be found within you.

 

We are each here to help others.  If we pursue a life of giving, we are on the right path and following our destiny.  If you ignore your own needs, it may be difficult for you to do the best you can for others.  There will be times when you have to address your own mental, physical and emotional needs.  It is not necessary to bringing someone else into the equation.   It does not have to be brought out into the open or even presented to others.  It can be a pact you make with yourself -- a silent commitment you decide on without any outside involvement.  

 

You deserve to be happy and content in life.  Being true to yourself and paying attention to what your needs are is the first step in acknowledging that you too are deserving of attention.  We live a service oriented life and this is as it should be, but you should also experience the receiving scenario.  You are as relevant as anyone else.  Be sure to treat yourself in the same fashion as you treat others.

Past Lives.....Fact or Fiction?

Are past lives fact or fiction?  This is a question that has been baffling people for eons. 

 

Is there a possibility that we have lived in previous lifetimes? 

 

Have we been here before? 

 

Is this our one and only life, and what happens when we die?

 

There have been many mystics, among others, that are quite comfortable with the concept that we have lived before.  There are countless individuals that truly believe that they have had recalls of past lives.  Some have experienced glimpses through past life regression.  Many of us have heard of stories where people claim to have experienced a “knowing” feeling as if they have been somewhere before yet know without a doubt that they have never been there in this lifetime.  How can this be possible?

 

We, personally, have seen an English speaking child under two years of age speaking fluent Chinese to a shop owner.  The Chinese owner said the child was talking in his language and questioned if the parents could also speak Chinese but they could not.  How is this possible? 

 

It is said that in the meditative state one can have many experiences, such as out of body experiences, finding their eclectic records and the remembrance of past lives.  Are all these fabrications of the mind or is this possible? 

 

Undoubtedly, we all have heard of experiences from those individuals who have clinically died and came back to life.  These individuals refer to a light or walking in a tunnel towards a light.  Some say that as they were walking towards the light that they reached a point where they knew that if they passed it there would be no returning. We have also been told that some are told to turn around and go back that it was not their time to come.  How can we explain this?

 

We hear more and more people having “special” experiences.  Does it not make you questions, what is normal or “super”natural and what is not? 

 

Are these experiences not just our individual perception of reality?  We, personally, cannot help but question just how little we actually understand.   What is the big picture and what is our part in it? 

 

We each have a choice to be a skeptic, to be a believer or we can just be open to all potentials.  Fact or fiction--what is your interpretation?  We leave it in your hands to come up with your own personal perception of what reality is and what your part actually is.  It is certainly wide open for discussion, isn’t it?

Sun in Virgo - August 24, 2014

The following post applies to those that are born with the Sun in Virgo or have a strong planetary influence in the sixth house.  On August the 24, 2014, the Sun moves into the sign of Virgo. 

 

Those who are born with strong Virgo character traits view life on a microscopic level.  They do not miss anything life throws at them and are constantly analyzing life and current situations.  They have an eye for detail on a most minute scale and see imperfection and the tiniest of flaws.  They are seekers of perfection in life and in themselves.

 

They are conservative in their approach to life and are rarely gamblers.  They like the tried and tested route.  Because of their intellectual approach to life and their ability to decipher even the tiniest details, they are excellent problem solvers, although their approach may be considered by some as going to the extreme.  They are very service oriented and enjoy helping others and have an uncanny ability to create order out of chaotic conditions.  They truly give all of themselves to those in need and can be counted on if they give you their word.  They will offer their advice and aid in almost any situation.

 

With their work, they enjoy detail.  Accounting and design as well as organizational projects are right up their alley.  They are very productive and enjoy being busy and often get noticed for their precise work and problem solving.  They certainly seek perfection and can be counted on in doing a good job. 

 

Rewards come their way when perseverance is required and they will often take on jobs that are too difficult for others to handle as they can make it work in the very best possible way.  They also make excellent writers, analysers and critiques because of their ability to stick with something until it is completed.  They are usually good at handling money matters and make great financial advisers.  They also make great secretaries or assistants.  Order is key for them and will help them in many of their endeavours in life.

 

Many are overly concerned with cleanliness and hygiene as well as diet and health.  They can actually become overly conscious in health matters and some can become hypochondriacs if there is too much concentration in this area of life.  When this becomes extreme, there is a tendency to worry and become anxious at the slightest ailment.  They will have to watch from becoming obsessive and compulsive when it comes to health, especially their own.  Too much worry is a direct sign of misalignment and they will need to find a place within where they can rationalise the situation and take some time to relax and let go of this focus.  In most cases the problem will resolve itself and calming themselves down is the best route to take.  They need to have intermittent rest periods where they can calm down and view things more realistically.  This will assist in letting go of potential problems.

 

Virgo individuals are very curious characters who intellectualize life matters.  When it comes to their emotions, they usually keep them secret and because of this, often come across as very self-contained and self-reliant.  They find their emotional equilibrium by intellectually analyzing their emotions and coming to terms on a mental level.  They can use their logic and methodical approach to solve most any problem as long as they keep things in balance and do not let their analytical abilities run away with them.

 

They see faults in others, are especially hard on themselves and their inner circle of friends, although their intent is to help.  Sometimes others will require their assistance, but sometimes the Virgo individual will need to stand back and realize that not everyone wants their help.  They are totally service oriented and truly want to help.  If you have a problem that needs resolution and you just do not seem to be able to figure it out, your Virgo friend can surely help you uncover the solution you are looking for.

Current World Conditions

Listening to the evening news, you would have to think that our world and mankind are headed for disaster.  There are several new situations that have raised their offensive faces in our world at present.  There are people fleeing their homelands in fear of their lives.  There is ever increasing racial and religious segregation.  Religion’s base is a pure one if it is based on love.  Love bonds us all together although there are religious heretics or extremists that have proclaimed their rite of enforcement and cleansing in the name of God.

 

It is difficult for those of us who are peace loving individuals to understand some of the workings of our world, when all we seek is love, truth and compassion for everyone.  Should we not be able to mold these objectives into one common tread if we are all in search of the same thing?

 

Our world seems to be teetering but often before change, we experience ciaos in some form or another.  The current order of things must give way for something new to enter into existence.  Many feel a change in consciousness or that new world order is taking hold.  There is an awakening taking place in our world and if we look around, we will see that many people are on some type of spiritual journey.  Transformation is often preceded by confrontation and our world is confronting itself and changes are being made on a global scale.

 

Be thankful if you are not caught in the middle of this transformation that so many unfortunately are experiencing on a physical level.  Many are losing their family, friends and homes due to violence, hate and power struggles.  There have been ongoing issues with famine and long experienced suffering in third world countries that seem to be only an illusion in our little protected area of the world.

 

Suffering on a grand scale takes place every day in our neighbouring countries and many experience horrendous acts of inhuman treatment.  Be thankful for your peaceful surroundings.  We do recognize that there are many among us who are suffering their own mental anguish and torment on their own personal level.

 

Be the agent of change in your corner of the world by spreading love, compassion and peace.  Pass on the one ingredient that we all have in common as being human and caring for those around us.  You can generate love and compassion in your everyday world, spreading the wave of affection and friendship to your fellow man.  A loving gesture, a gentle smile and a helping hand are all within your abilities.  Alternatively, as one in need, these are always within your reach if you simply will reach out in your moments of suffering and pain.

 

We are all one and on this journey together.  The whole world is joined and although we experience our own life on our own terms, we still walk this road of life together.  Shake hands with all fellow humans.  Make amends and learn to love one another on a grand scale.  Pray for your fellow brother and sister Strive for peace! 

 

Focus your intent in positive directions and pay heed to the world of abundance that surrounds you.  We have the inherent ability to make that shift, to change our part of the world and to help those around us that need our assistance, regardless of how insignificant that help may seem.  Baby steps pull us in the right direction.  You CAN make this world a better place--one step at a time!
