November 2006 Celestial Timings by Cayelin K Castell

Gratitude is the Transformational Key we can all utilize to change our lives and the world around us. In this month of Thanksgiving here are some quotes to further inspire our own gratitude experience from a Louise Hay Book appropriately titled Gratitude, A Way of Life.

Gratitude is indeed like a gearshift that can move our mental mechanism from obsession to peacefulness, from stuckness to creativity, from fear to love. The ability to relax and be mindfully present in the moment comes naturally when we are grateful. ~ Joan Borysenko. Ph.D.

Transcendental Gratitude, however, goes beyond social conventions. Instead of feeling grateful to someone, we feel grateful for them - for God or Spirit working through them. We begin to feel grateful for everyone and everything that arises in our lives. The feeling uplifts us, embraces us, and helps us uplift and embrace others in the recognition that we are, ultimately, in this together. ~ Dan Millman

The common meaning of gratitude is to be thankful for benefits received. While this is important, I feel that the energy of gratitude is one of the most powerful attracting forces in the universe. A heart filled with Thanksgiving, even when appearances tell us that we are mired in scarcity, conflict, and affliction, moves us to a higher frequency in consciousness – and we soon witness reality shining through the illusion. ~John Randolph Price

Gratitude is not the result of things that happen to us: it is an attitude we cultivate by practice. The more we are thankful for, the more we will find to be thankful for. ~Alan Cohen

November Sky

Nov 1, Wednesday. Nov 1 is known as All Saints Day by the Roman Catholics honoring their Saints who already reside in Heaven. Also in the Catholic tradition Nov 2 is All Souls Day reminding souls here to live a holy life and to pray for the souls lost in purgatory. In many ancient traditions this is a time for honoring the Dead. In Mexico and parts of the Western United States, Dia de los Muertos or the Day of the Dead (Nov 2) dates back at least 3,000 years surviving the Spanish Conquistadors attempts to eradicate this Meso-American tradition . This is a time when many northern hemisphere cultures recognized the dying plants were preparing their seeds for rebirth, and used this time to honor and remember their ancestors, those who have come before and have died. It is a time for celebrating and recognizing the cycle of death as an important part of the cycle of life.
The ancient Celts celebrated this cross-quarter time as their New Year’s point called Samhain (pronounced sow-in) usually on the New or Full Moon closest to the astrological cross-quarter. (See Nov 7) The November cross-quarter is when the veils between all the worlds, especially the world of the living and the world of the dead, are thinnest. The Celts believed this timing was most powerful for looking into the future and for accessing other worlds more easily. This was (and is) a time to go within and seek guidance from the ancestors for the coming year. This was celebrated as a time of High Magic for those attuned to the mysteries, celebrating death and rebirth, endings and beginnings, that which has been and that which is yet to come. It was also believed that this timing, when worked with consciously, helped to set the pattern for the coming year.

Synchronistically with this magical seasonal time the Moon is occulting retrograde Uranus (11 Pisces) visible with binoculars and telescope in most of Australia and part of New Guinea. “Occult” is a word rooted in Old English, Greek, and Old German that means concealed, covered, hidden, secret, and supernatural. Astronomically speaking the definition of occultation simply means “covered.” This year we have already had 6 Moon occultations over Uranus. Today is the 7th. Another one occurs Nov 28 and again on Dec 25 making a total of 9 Moon/Uranus occultations this year. These Moon Uranus occultations are accelerating the possibility for a radical assemblage point shift in our personal and collective objective awareness. This is an opportunity to see directly into the radical, revolutionary Uranian mysteries as they accelerate Piscean changes. When healthy Piscean style change comes from compassionate acceptance of what IS then it is also a time for tuning in to the hidden mysteries of divine union or the inner Holy Grail.


Nov 2, Thursday. Day of the Dead. The waxing Moon Moves into Aries energizing the mysteries of trust, spontaneity and courage emphasized by the Aries Archetype of the Warrior/Adventurer/Explorer. Trusting our in-the-moment intuitive process for inner guidance supports courageous, authentic, spontaneous, decisive action. Decisive, inspired action is a key element in the three-fold creative process. Sometimes the best, most useful action is to get ourselves out of the way and do something FUN.
.
Nov 3, Friday. Sun (11 Scorpio) trines retrograde Uranus (11 Pisces) reminding us that Uranus is about to station direct on November 19 moving only 8 minutes in the next couple of weeks. The slowing and actual shifting direction of a planet represents a pause or a time for locating the center balanced point of power (also known as the Still Point) where everything is possible and everything exists before it begins to differentiate or move into form. This Still Point features Uranus in Pisces locating the place of radical compassion and acceptance for all that IS. When we have compassion for where we find ourselves and can feel loving compassion for ourselves and all involved we move out of resistance to what IS. We feed energy to what we resist or judge in ourselves or others. It helps to operate from preferences rather than demands or expectations. This is because preferences carry an energy of acceptance rather than resistance. Practicing preferences without attachment to outcome shifts any limiting assemblage points creating the space for greater liberation and freedom.

Nov 4, Saturday. Moon moves into Taurus and tonight is the fullest rise of the waxing Moon though the exact Full Moon is tomorrow morning, so the Moon will be already be waning by Moon rise tomorrow night. That means tonight is the best time to engage a still waxing rising Full Moon in ceremonial gratitude for our lives. Gratitude is the key to true receivership and receiving is one of the key elements of the Taurus mysteries. It is much easier to give than truly receive because to truly receive we must be open to appreciate the gifts life is giving us in every moment even when it seems to be opposed to what we think we desire.

For those who have not yet created a gratitude ceremony this is an ideal time to do so. Being with this Taurus Full Moon in ceremonial gratitude is a powerful way to begin opening to receive ever greater blessings, wonder and magical transformation. For those who have already begun their practice of gratitude this is a time to deepen your appreciation for all you are experiencing including any challenging or difficult situations as they will ultimately help guide and direct you toward your true heart’s desire. (Venus passes by Zuben Algenubi see Nov 14)

Nov 5, Sunday. The Taurus Full Moon (13 Taurus) is occurring in the window of the cross-quarter between the September Equinox and the December Solstice. The Taurus Full Moon is a magical time illuminating the night at a time when the veils between the worlds are thinnest and the greatest possibilities for divination and magic occur. It helps to be open and trust the process paying attention to the synchronicities that often are signs of even greater magic unfolding.

Ariel Spilsbury and Michael Bryner define this type of magic in their book The Mayan Oracle; The Return Path to the Stars.

Magic: an apparently extraordinary occurrence that is actually a natural manifestation of the laws of higher consciousness. The resonant field where in all things are linked holographically in meaning. According to Starhawk, author of The Spiral Dance, magic is the “the art of sensing and shaping the subtle, unseen forces that flow through the world awakening deeper levels of consciousness beyond the rational….”

Nov 6, Monday. The waning Moon passes by the Pleiades and moves into Gemini this morning and Venus (17 Scorpio) squares Neptune (17 Aquarius). This Timing suggests heightened creative, intuitive, dreaming energies are available when we are open to receive them. The shadow possibility is to get stuck in the illusions of our current cultural dream limiting our inner and outer experience of who we truly are. The sacred feminine expression showing up in Scorpio has the ability to powerfully manifest her passion through her ability to attune to intuitive and imaginative guidance operating outside the limits of what we are taught is ordinary reality. In the Cross-quarter Full Moon window this further energizes the possibilities of High Magic manifesting in mysterious ways.

Nov 7, Tuesday. Sun is at the exact astrological cross quarter (15 Scorpio), magical messenger Mercury retrograde conjuncts Venus, and the Moon is crossing the Galactic Edge in the Lunar Standstill window. This is a potent portal that was already activated when the Taurus Full Moon window began on Nov 4. True magic, high magic, interdimensional magic, everyday magic, is everywhere now more than ever at this cross-quarter. Magic is happening all the time when we are paying attention. For example, there is the magic of passionately loving ourselves and others, loving life, being in gratitude, noticing synchronicities, the subtle and often not so subtle everyday blessings including transformative information pouring in from sources all around us. With the cross-quarter portal occurring as the Moon crosses the Galactic Edge in the Lunar Standstill window and Mercury now giving direct transmissions to the Scorpio Goddess the probability of important magical messages and blessings are heightened especially when we are willing and open to receive them. (See Nov 14)

Nov 8, Wednesday. Retrograde Mercury (17 Scorpio) is still within the Scales (see Nov 14) and is squaring Neptune (17 Aquarius). Mars (11 Scorpio) is trining retrograde Uranus (11 Pisces). And retrograde Mercury is transiting over the face of the Sun, while the Moon moves into Cancer in direct alignment with the Galactic Edge where the Milky Way and the Ecliptic intersect…all happening while we are still within the cross-quarter portal that was exact yesterday.

Mercury is making direct contact with the Sun or Source from our Earth-based perspective in an area of the sky that is linked with the gateway to Tula (See Nov 14). As Above, So Below indicates that we also have the ability to make a direct connection with Source with greater ease than usual or what we normally consider.

It is up to us to receive the magical energies now available to us when we are open to receive them directly from Source. The Mayan Oracle agrees saying…”Step into empowerment. When you align with what gives you joy, expressing your beauty and power, your energy naturally expands to include more of who you are. Nothing and no one outside yourself can give you real power. Empower yourself by directly addressing the situation at hand. Act with integrity and magical outcomes will naturally blossom.”

Nov 9, Thursday. Sun (17 Scorpio) squares Neptune (17 Aquarius) activating the vast dreaming energy of the Neptunian realm. After a planet goes direct a Sun Square to the planet occurs alerting us to its quickening motion from the Earth’s perspective. Neptune is now in full forward motion since its direct station on October 29 and will remain in forward motion until May 25 when Neptune stations retrograde once again at (22 Aquarius).

On Feb 5, 2006 the Sun and Neptune were conjunct at (17 Aquarius) so whatever was seeded then is completing its final initiatory process. Neptune stationed retrograde on May 22 of this year at 19Aquarius49 and will station direct on Oct 31, 2007 at 19Aquarius15. This means that anyone who has planets or angles in fixed signs (or the signs of Self-Interest as described in Shamanic Astrology) between 19 and 23 degrees are on the front lines of the upcoming Neptunian initiation intended to heighten and refine intuition. Those who have planets or angles between 17 and 18 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius are in the completion phase of the current Neptunian initiation and if all is on track with this timing they will now find greater clarity and direction emerging as Neptune reaches 19 degrees of Aquarius by January 26, 2007. (Mercury passes by Zuben Algenubi see Nov 14)

Nov 10, Friday. The Moon moves into Leo this evening transmitting the mysteries that remind of us our radiant and shining divine essence. The Hopi Elders remind us we are the ones we have been waiting for! We are all divine incarnations returning (sometimes previously known as the Great Shining Ones) and when we truly remember that we will once again experience a Golden Age of Peace and Plenty.

Nov 11, Saturday. 11/11 When the 11:11 appears to you, it is your wake-up call. A direct channel opens up between you and the Greater Reality. The 11:11 is an insertion point…You can enter the Greater Reality and travel deeper into the Invisible. You can seed a long held desire, receive a vision, ask for help in some specific area of your life or simply feel the Invisible insert itself into the present moment. The revelations you receive will not come in the form of mental concepts. Rather, it will be an enhanced state of being in which you will see everything as if with new eyes. A deeper understanding of what is truly real will surround you. Solara author of 11:11 http://www.nvisible.com/1111/1111intro.html

Retrograde Mercury meets with Mars (13 Scorpio) energizing messages directing us towards engaging in passionate alive activities that support the powerful expression of our true authentic self. If we have feelings of rage, anger, hurt, etc. that are unexpressed it is time to find safe, healthy ways to express them. Turning our angry hurt feelings towards ourselves or to whoever is handy can cause greater wounding. Journaling, physical exercise, counseling, breathwork, are among some of the practices that help move the feelings creating a healthy release freeing up our life force for greater authentic expression.

Nov 12, Sunday. The Leo Last Quarter Moon (20 Leo) is conjunct Saturn (24 Leo) and Venus (24 Scorpio) is square Saturn focusing on more opportunities to ground into self-love into our daily experience. Being grateful for life, being grateful for the day, and being grateful for all that IS, no matter how challenging, catalyzes magical transformative experiences that are often beyond imaging.

In his book, A Conscious Person’s Guide to Relationships, Ken Keyes, Jr. reminds us:

Everyone now is a teacher and all of our life is a teaching – this is the fastest route. Everybody and everything helps us on our way. When we experience offense, life offers us our next step in doing the inner work. When we create feelings of joy, life is giving us a taste of living in a world of love that ever beckons us onward.

Nov 13, Monday. Moon moves into Virgo until Nov 14 and Mercury (11 Scorpio) trines retrograde Uranus (11 Pisces). With the Moon transmitting the mysteries of Spiderwoman, weaver of the web, Mercury and Uranus are aligning to bring revolutionary ideas and ways of communicating within a new crystalline web of experience beyond our usual sensory perceptions. This is a time where we may receive inner guidance or a sense of knowing (often confirmed by synchronistic external events) coming from a multi-dimensional cosmic perspective that gives us insight into the “big picture” of our personal and collective lives.

Nov 14, Tuesday. Mars reaches 15 degrees Scorpio the magical cross-quarter degree where the Sun was on Nov 7. Mars crosses this point every 26 months and synchronistically the fixed star Zuben Algenubi, located as one of the main stars in the constellation of the Scales also happens to be located at 15 Scorpio occurring for about 144 years every 26,000 years.

The fixed star site indicates that the Scales in the ancient Sanskrit texts of India was referred to as Tula, the name for the 'Holy Land' located in the north. In William Henry’s book, The Peacemaker and the New Key of Life Tula is defined as “the place of Peace”. Henry says, “The Key of Life is a secret teaching which enables the Children of Light to enter the Promised Land which is the biblical code for the ultimate human experience. It is called Tula the Sanskrit word for ‘balance’ in ancient texts.”

Henry also gives this description.

Tula is a place and a process of becoming. In Tula our thoughts, desires or fears will become instantly ‘real’. What is in our hearts cannot remain hidden. What is felt in the heart is what is seen in the world. Only love can flow through our hearts in Tula.

When the Scales align with the Cross-Quarter time of the year it acts to open this stargate pathway. Once each year the Sun passes by here currently happening on Nov 7. This year Mercury passes by three times (Oct 13 & Nov 9 & 26), and Venus (Nov 4 & 5) pass by once. Also, much of this past year Jupiter was making its 12 year passage by here amplifying this portal as it stationed in the gateway between Zuben Algenubi and Zuben Alshamali the other bright star in this constellation.

The current Mercury Retrograde cycle stationed on Oct 28 in this constellation and has passed by these two main stars twice already with the last pass on Nov 26 downloading direct transmissions directly from this portal. Now the active Mars energy is passing by here in its 26 month journey and will be in range from Nov 12 - 27. This is an opportunity to note what is in our hearts by what is reflected in our world while also stepping up as co-creators manifesting Heaven on Earth where love of self and others is our guiding principle.

Nov 15, Wednesday. Moon in Libra and Venus conjunct Jupiter (27 Scorpio) expands the passionate experience of how we relate to ourselves and others. How we treat others is ultimately no different than how we treat ourselves. Kindness towards others is kindness towards self. The fine art of treating others with genuine respect, kindness, sincerity, and dignity is a reflection of our own self-treatment. If we are already treating ourselves and others with kindness and caring this will be greatly amplified in this window. One of the kindest things we can do for ourselves is to continue to practice self-forgiveness. These forgiveness affirmations are offered to inspire a deepening and growing forgiveness process. (See Chiron Article on articles page for more on healing power of Kindness)

I forgive myself for:
Judging myself
Being angry with myself
Being harsh on myself
And punishing myself
Not being what I believe is a kinder, smarter, more together, and more loving person.
Any fear that still runs my life.
Believing I am not good enough the way I am.
Believing that I am not worthy of prosperous finances and healthy, loving, fun relationships.
All the ways I have ever been unkind or mean to myself or others.
And for the ways I judge my feelings as wrong or bad trying to escape them rather than embrace them for the teachings they have for me.

Nov 16, Thursday. The Sun (24 Scorpio) squares Saturn (24 Leo) preparing for Saturn’s retrograde station Dec 5 at 25 Leo. Saturn’s gift is providing a structure for us to experience reality. Saturn’s passage through Leo provides a deeper look at the structure we have created around how we love ourselves or not. Ken Keyes, Jr. reminds us how we can get a handle on this in his book Prescriptions for Happiness…

“Actually, when you love someone it means that he or she is putting you in touch with a part of you that you love in yourself.”

Nov 17, Friday. Venus moves into Sagittarius, Mars (17 Scorpio) squares Neptune (17 Aquarius) and Mercury (9 Scorpio) stations direct. Restlessness (Mars) and confusion (Neptune), along with passionate and challenging communications (Mercury) are all possible today. Honoring our feelings and taking responsibility for our personal experience helps to direct the energies in ways that will inspire, expand and transform.

Nov 18, Saturday. The Moon moves into Scorpio emphasizing the mysteries of death and rebirth as we approach the Scorpio New Moon on Nov 20. This is a time for releasing all that is ready to die as a part of the natural cycle of life and death and rebirth. Releasing with gratitude what is ready to die, appreciating the gifts, that way of being, or that experience, or that person, or that phase of life has given you, even if it was challenging and difficult, helps to shift your awareness and attention while raising your vibrational frequency and creating the space for new energy and new experiences to be attracted into your life.

Nov 19, Sunday. Moon conjuncts retrograde Mercury (9 Scorpio) and Mars (18 Scorpio) as Uranus stations direct (11 Pisces). Today is especially important for going with the flow and planning extra time for unexpected occurrences. For those who are not attached to any specific outcomes this can be a delightful adventure that expands objective awareness to new realms beyond everyday ordinary reality.

Nov 20, Monday. New Moon (29 Scorpio) conjunct Jupiter (29 Scorpio), and then the Moon moves in Sagittarius. This New Moon seed point carries maximum possibility for expanding experiences of a magical empowering rebirth. Surrendering with gratitude and appreciation for what has been, what IS, and what is birthing assists us in operating in alignment with the abundant, loving vibrational frequency of Source. When our vibrational signature is aligned with gratitude and appreciation for ourselves and others then we attract life experiences that reflect the loving abundant nature of the universe.

Nov 21, Tuesday. Moon conjuncts Venus in the underworld and Sun conjuncts Jupiter (29 Scorpio). Still within the Scorpio New Moon window the themes of empowerment through dying to what no longer serves and birthing into a whole new way of being are magnified. Since all of this is taking place near the Sun it is not visible in the sky. Inner connection through journeying, mediation, prayer, ceremony etc. assists us in accessing the transformative power of these energies.

Nov 22, Wednesday. Sun moves into Sagittarius, Mercury trines Uranus, Moon conjuncts Pluto in the Lunar Standstill. The Moon conjuncts Pluto (26 Sagittarius) and moves into Capricorn across Galactic Center or Hunab Ku as described by the Mayans. The Mayans considered Hunab Ku to be the ultimate creator and conscious principle that organizes all matter in the manifest creation. The Mayas also felt that Hunab Ku or Galactic Center constantly gives birth to new stars and planets as well as being the portal or gateway to other galaxies beyond ours and that everything that happens in our Galaxy comes from the center through cyclical energy waves or bursts. Scientists are now concluding that Galactic Center is not only consuming huge amounts of matter but it is also giving birth to stars etc. as well. http://www.aztlan.net/rumblings_center_galaxy.htm

Remarkably this year and next year is the window of Pluto’s exact alignment with the galactic core (for the first time in 248 years) and this year 2006 is the center point of the Moon’s 19-year lunar extreme. This means the Moon is passing furthest south of the ecliptic while in late Sagittarius and early Capricorn causing it to actually cross directly over galactic center once each month for all of 2006 and 2007. Soon to join all this is Jupiter who is moving in Sagittarius tomorrow and passing directly by Galactic Center during Dec 2007. When we consider how the center of the galaxy influences our evolutionary experience in general and then we add Jupiter and Pluto’s alignment here in the time of the Lunar Standstill along with the Sun’s passage each year during the December Solstice (something that can only happen for a period of time during a 26,000 year cycle) then we know there is a beyond the ordinary activation occurring creating a frequency shift or harmonic re-calibration as it relates to us individually within our collective space-time-grid experience.

Nov 23, Thursday. Happy Thanksgiving. Moon moves into Capricorn and Jupiter moves into Sagittarius for the first time in nearly 12 years. Jupiter of course is still very near the Sun, meaning Jupiter is in the underworld phase of its journey where powerful transformational initiatory experiences take place.

Add to this the Moon’s monthly pass over Galactic Center as it moves into Capricorn and we have an expansive time for grounding the new galactic energy codes in a practical and useful form. In 2007, Jupiter joins Pluto in a rare alignment at Galactic Center. The alchemical transformative power of this alignment is not to be underestimated. Jupiter and Sagittarius are expansive by nature, and when healthy recognize that the journey is never ending, or rather ever expanding into new territory including new revelations of truth and meaning, and new experiences that expand our joy and appreciation of life when we are open to receive this vibrational signature.

For those who are hanging onto old ways, old truths, and old vibrations this could prove to be an extremely challenging time as the planetary frequency continues to expand and evolve. It is time for the caterpillar to let go of its caterpillar self and transform into the butterfly.

Nov 24, Friday. Still riding the waves of Jupiter’s move in Sagittarius where it will remain until Dec 18, 2007 we are being called to notice what energy we are vibrating with in our life because that is the energy Jupiter will expand. If our thoughts and feelings are centering on lack and limitation then that will expand leaving us feeling even greater lack and limitation. However, if our thoughts and feelings are centered on gratitude, self-love, self-forgiveness, and appreciation for our lives then that will expand and we will experience even greater joy. Jupiter operates through magnification and attraction so it is up to us to choose our experience through our thoughts and feelings and what we are imaging. All of these elements together are a part of our vibrational field or the energy that surrounds us. How we are vibrating determines what we are attracting into our life experience. Now more than ever it is important to consciously choose where we focus our attention.

It is often challenging to look at everything we experience as a mirror for our vibrational signature or field. If there are people in our lives that anger us, irritate us, frustrate us or we are feeling judgment about them – then they are mirroring something within our vibrational field. On the other hand if we are experiencing those who delight us, inspire us, and feel good to be around, then that too is a mirror for us. It is important to accept what Is and not resist how we are feeling because resisting quickly attracts more of what we are resisting. This next year Jupiter acts as powerful expansive tool for changing our vibrational field when we are consciously choosing our thoughts and where we are focusing our attention.

Nov 25, Saturday. Moon moves into Aquarius, and Venus (11 Sag) squares Uranus (11 Pisces). The waxing Moon in Aquarius operates in resonance with Uranus who is also being squared by Venus today activating the possibility of a radical assemblage point shift designed to facilitate multi-dimensional conscious awareness and experiences outside the boundaries of ordinary reality. It helps to roll with the flow as these changes are intended to liberate us from outmoded ways that have limited our freedom.

Nov 26, Sunday. Moon conjuncts Neptune (17 Aquarius) amplifying the power of our imagination to create our reality. Taking time to meditate, journey, daydream, vision, journal, or ceremonially engage what you are desiring and dreaming into reality, is greatly strengthened by this timing. Especially as Mercury crosses Zuben Algenubi for the third and final time as a feature of the current Mercury Cycle. (See Nov 14)

Nov 27, Monday. The Pisces First Quarter Moon (6 Pisces) represents a threshold crossing for dreaming our biggest dreams. Energy follows our thoughts and our words as well as our actions. Imagine it, decree it so, and give gratitude while knowing it is already on its way to manifesting.

Nov 28, Tuesday. Moon occults Uranus (11 Pisces) for second time this month and Mercury (17 Scorpio) squares Neptune (17 Aquarius) for the third and final time as Mercury moves toward its retrograde station degree on Dec 4. Plus, Mars (25 Scorpio) squares Saturn (25 Saturn) grounding the Uranian and Neptunian celestial influences into a practical useful form.

This is powerful time for revolutionizing our experience of radical compassion for the purpose of more deeply and completely integrating radical self-love. Genuine radical compassion comes from our deep awareness of our wounds and all the ways we might feel our own suffering or the suffering of another while at the same time accepting what IS and moving beyond any need to fix it, relieve it, or change it in anyway.

Accepting things as they are doesn’t mean we give up our desire for change or the willingness to take action to create change. This is really about the difference between an addictive need and a preference. We can still prefer what we prefer while also accepting What Is For Now*. Acceptance releases the need for life to be different than what it IS and that often then facilitates radical change in unexpected ways, especially when we are not attached to what the change looks like. (*Accept What is For Now is the second of the Prescriptions for Happiness by Ken Keyes, Jr.)

Nov 29, Wednesday. The waxing Moon is moving into Aries later today. Aries asks; “What are you committed to and what are you willing to stand for and even fight for while upholding and protecting the cosmic order of life?”

What we think and say is important in how we are creating our reality. The third element of co-creation is what we do? Our actions produce results. If you are not experiencing the results you desire then it is time to commit to healthy new actions. If you don’t know what action to take then pick something that will inspire you or help relax you so new insights and possibilities can come through.

Nov 30, Thursday. Venus (17 Sag) sextiles Neptune (17 Aquarius) emphasizing the divine feminine connection to the Celestial Realms of inspiration and expanded states of conscious opening wide multiple channels into multi-dimensional cosmic overviews. With the Moon in Aries this is great time to take committed decisive action designed to ground these insights and visions in manifest form.
