Your Love has come back…to you!

Aphrodite enters Aries and a new cycle
begins in your expe­ri­ence of liv­ing with beau­ty, in your liv­ing by love. For
over three weeks while Venus moved through Pisces, you touched the sub­lime in
your world and in one another…you dis­solved those bound­aries between I and
Thou and felt, even for a moment, your one­ness with your­self, your beloved and
the worlds around and beyond you too…

But now you return to the source, you
must come back and begin again, to restore your­self and drink from your well,
that ever-renew­ing, bound­less foun­tain-source of self-affirm­ing Love…For the
force that holds the whole of this Uni­verse as One, that very same force flows
from with­in this Divine Cen­ter that is found in your own true heart.

Before you can ever hope to appreciate
any­thing as it tru­ly is, or most
cer­tain­ly love any­one as they tru­ly deserve to be loved, you must first have
expe­ri­enced this…You must learn to expe­ri­ence the Love of
yourself…Unconditionally. For this is the way of it, what­ev­er or whomev­er you
meet out there is a reflec­tion of what you have under­stood and accept­ed about
your own true self…

You are learn­ing, slow­ly but surely,
that it all comes down to this, to your know­ing accep­tance that you are a
won­drous spark of the Divine and your val­ue is beyond any mea­sure­ment (because
you will unfold from with­in your­self for­ev­er the Divin­i­ty that is there), and
the Love you have is as bound­less as the Uni­verse you call home (because the
Divine that is with­in you is the very abid­ing pres­ence found in every Force and
Par­ti­cle of Creation…for there is but One Self).

Cel­e­brate this renew­al of your Way of
Beau­ty, your Way of Love…

That sur­round­ed by Beau­ty you turn and see
as in a mir­ror the Beau­ty of your Soul…

That embraced by your Beloved you now
see in their eyes that same Eter­nal Light, the unbound­ed love of the Divine that
abides in your heart as well…

Begin in Beau­ty, Live in Love…

Venus, the Light-Bearer…bringing you
home.

Hap­py Astro­log­i­cal New Year!

You
have fin­ished yet anoth­er chap­ter of your life. Your world, your Earth, has
com­plet­ed anoth­er spi­ral­ing dance through those Realms of Life and Spir­it known
as the Zodiac…And now it is Time…it is Your time…It is time to turn to
the next page in your Book of Life-Con­scious­ness-Spir­it and see what
adven­tures, dis­cov­er­ies, hopes and dreams await you and yours…

A new day dawns and the world that
you have pre­pared awaits…It is full of pos­si­bil­i­ties, brim­ming over with the
joy of New Beginnings…A Won­drous, Ver­dant field for your Self-Becoming…But
there is a ques­tion you must ask and answer, a Right­eous Key so that you might
enter well this Holy Space of Self-Realization…You must turn and face the
Mir­ror that is Life and answer The Ques­tion of Ques­tions: “Who Are
You”?

Aries is the sign of the word made
flesh, of rein­car­na­tion, or more accu­rate­ly re-embod­i­ment. You enter these
Vir­gin Fields of the Self That is Becom­ing and the ques­tion that you must face
square­ly is, what do you bring into this Holy Space? Are you Aware of Your
Self, do you have the know­ing about your Way of Being?

When you move into any space, as you
sal­ly forth into this world, when you open each and every of those endless
doors of your life the ques­tion that must be answered is what did you present
to the world: were you hap­py or sad, seri­ous or sil­ly, car­ing or care­less. Did
you bring to bear exact­ly what was need­ed from you, at that time, in that
space? For this is your most impor­tant aware­ness, of the “Pres­ence”
that you abide in as you move through all the scenes of your life.

For you must under­stand, EVERYTHING
comes from this. Your Omega is con­tained in these Alpha moments, with how you bring
to bear the var­i­ous qual­i­ties you pos­sess as you make your way through your
world. It is from these first acts that you form the nature of your world…you build the
world by the inten­tion, atti­tude and demeanor that flow out and cre­ate your
real­i­ty, that form your expe­ri­ence of you in the world.

This is the first and the most
impor­tant step, for all else will fol­low from this your causal body in action…Through every first act you set in motion a chain of cau­sa­tion, of Karma,
that will flow down through many years, and echo on from life to life…Yes,
Every­thing Counts…but First things count the Most.

So, as this New Year Dawns and you
greet the Ris­ing Sun…

Always remem­ber you are the Mak­er of
the world that you now enter.

You are the sow­er of seeds and the
reaper of the har­vest to come…

And it is at this Cross­ing Point
between the Dark­ness and the Light, it is in this moment, like that of the
Eter­nal Now where your Spir­it resides, that you are free to begin again and to
make a bet­ter you and a bet­ter world.

This New Year begins with you.

It begins with Right Atti­tude and Right Action…

May you be Lov­ing and Kind, 

May you be Graceful
and Wise.

To each and every…

Hap­py New Year!

Had enough…of mis­cues, mis­steps and those
wheels spin­ning round and round??

Then you should be singing a different
tune start­ing today as your good friend, the Mer­ry Prankster, bet­ter known as
Mer­cury the Mes­sen­ger of the Gods, revers­es course and brings your three week
back­wards jour­ney, that mag­i­cal mys­tery tour of your inner depths, your grand
tour of Mys­ter­ies, Won­ders and Won­der­ing has fin­ished (for now).

It is always meant to be of ser­vice to
you, these ret­ro­grade circuits…they offer a chance to go back and provide
you with an oppor­tu­ni­ty to repair and renew your heart, mind and spirit…but
it can be just plain annoy­ing when every­thing, you know, just every­thing seems
to go off the rails.

So Hail and Farewell Prankster, who pointed
out and poked those glar­ing holes in your pre­ten­sions to being oh so wise…you
need­ed that, to be remind­ed that the extent of your Wis­dom will always be
mea­sured and defined by the depths of your Humility.

So take up the reins of your life
again…it is time to pre­pare for new projects, new endeav­ors and the becoming
that you will always be, you the self-unfold­ing cre­ative won­der that you are. 

You have gone with­in, you have reflect­ed, corrected
and reset…Freer from fear, from doubts and anx­i­eties, you car­ry a Greater Under­stand­ing now…and so you are ready.

You will go for­ward into this brand new
day…

You the self-unfold­ing, self-reflective
won­der of your world…

It is time to Dream, it is time to
Create…

It is time to be, time to become…

To be the Dreamer-Maker…

It is your time.

In the First Circle
beyond your world, he march­es ’round ever stand­ing guard, he watch­es over your
borderlands…He is pro­tec­tor, defend­er, the one who will not yield…He is the
Prince of Self-Realization…and now he returns to his most famil­iar, the Realm
of Aries wel­comes home its very own.

For the next 40 days,
Mars moves through a most spe­cial place for him and you. He has not been here
for almost two years, for that is how long he takes to dance through those
Man­sions of Life, the Wheel of Won­der known as the Zodiac.

Mars rules your
Desires, Aims and Aspirations…for once you have dis­cerned what you need or
want, it is Mars who takes up the call, it is Mars who gets you there. Mars is
back in Fire now, and you thrill with Resur­gent Idealism…You burn that much
brighter with bound­less Enthusiasms…and you move with greater longings,
urgency and a new­found Vigor.

Where­as in the past
weeks you felt the need to pause, to hold, to restrain your­self and turn your
actions inward, to be strong enough to make your right­ful Sac­ri­fice of Self…Now
you feel the urge to move out­ward again, to push ahead, to charge head­long into
your self-real­iz­ing striv­ings of Mind, Life and Love…you need, you must…and you
leap into the fray.

Yet, as is true with
any shift of ener­gies, but espe­cial­ly with this Mars in Aries move, there is a
need for Greater Understanding…You feel this mighty resur­gence of Ener­gy and
Dri­ve now, but such forces and forms need prop­er Moti­va­tion, steady Guidance
and Focused Purpose…For as with any use of great pow­er there comes great Respon­si­bil­i­ty too.

So let you Spirit
soar with renewed Enthu­si­asms, feel those Fires of Desire that burn so bright­ly now…but remem­ber to be Patient with your­self and
with one anoth­er too.

Be guid­ed by your
“Burn­ing Brights”, your won­drous­ly Ide­al­is­tic Dreams…but remember
that you are on Earth and that you do not want the pur­suit of the Per­fect to
become the obsta­cle to what is tru­ly Good and Beau­ti­ful too.

Aim for what you know
to be your Truth, go for your Heart’s Desire…but remem­ber that your way is
but one melody in this Cho­rus of Cre­ation, and though you will play your part, you
must allow oth­ers to find their way too.

Rejoice and raise your Ban­ner, the Self Awakening…

Spir­i­tu­al Fires are mov­ing now…

It is time, it is time…

It is time to sing your Song of Songs!

One last kiss before the year is done,
one more meet­ing of Dear Luna and Mighty Sol…Their dance of Light and Shadows
plays across your Opales­cent Orb, caress­ing, inform­ing, guiding…inspiring you
as you walk upon this won­drous path­way of Light…They meet one more time, to
begin again…one more time, before you begin again…

All New Moons are begin­nings, but the final
New Moon of the Astro­log­i­cal Year car­ries a very spe­cial mean­ing and significance
for you…For this is the time each year that you bring in your Spiritual
Har­vest, this your time for Reck­on­ing and Reward.

It is a time of clo­sure, for
seek­ing the mean­ing behind the forms, for bring­ing all these myr­i­ad threads of
your life just lived togeth­er, to see what you have made, to look upon what you
faced and formed in the year just past…

You look upon this mir­ror of your life, to see what type of Mag­ic Cloak of Life you wear, it is the out­er form, the Veil of Man­i­fes­ta­tion you made and moved in, of many shapes and count­less colors…It
is time to see what you have made of your­self in life this year, and to consider
what lies ahead…

Though every New Moon is a Alpha moment,
a fresh infu­sion of Spir­i­tu­al Hope and Mean­ing, the New Moon of Pisces is an
Omega moment too…For as it is said, “As it was in The Begin­ning, so
shall it be in The End”…Star Stuff you are, and to the Stars you will
return, it is your des­tiny. The Source of All, the Pow­er of Cre­ation, is also
with you, but you must learn to use it Wise­ly, Carefully…Lovingly.

So it is time once more to bow your head
and ask for For­give­ness, Guid­ance and Inspiration.

For­give your­self for the errors of this
past year…you can only learn through the mis­steps and cor­rec­tions that you
make, For­give Yourself…and Grow.

Lis­ten in the Silence, your High­er Self, always there to lead you to a bet­ter way and place…Believe and Know, You will nev­er walk alone.

Look up, and gaze with Won­der and Joy,
for you are a Star in an Ocean of Light and Love…Let your Heart be filled by the Won­der of Creation.

You are the Alpha, and you are the Omega…

You are the Light.

Who must ever fol­low the Ancient Injunction…

Walk on…Look up…

Be the Light.
