VOTE ON November 6^th!

VOTE AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT– BECAUSE IT DOES!

Margaret Mead is right— “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

FOR ALL OF US: 

“What we allow will continue. What continues will escalate.” Katherine Fugate

and

“Hope has two beautiful daughters– their names are Anger and Courage.  Anger at the way things are and Courage to see that they do not remain as they are.” Augustine

and

“Prejudice is an emotional commitment to ignorance.”  Nathan Rutstein

and

“I love you, my sister and brother, whoever you are– whether you worship in your church, kneel in your temple or pray in your mosque. You and I are all children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of one Supreme Being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.” Khalil Gibran

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) From now until the end of the year, you’ll have several opportunities to see what you’re really committed to. Stay grounded and pay attention to details. You’ll be called upon to make several important decisions, so be sure to choose with your head and not with your heart.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20 You’re in a very interesting position. For the next few years, the planet of eclecticism, unpredictability, and change in the form of upheaval is in your sign. Your natural inclination is to resist these forces– please don’t! Yes, extreme change is coming your way; so is extreme good fortune. Your ability to go with the flow will determine whether your path is smooth or rocky.   

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) Beginning on November 16^th, our old friend, Mercury– the planet that rules communication– will go retrograde until December 6^th. When Mercury is retrograde, it’s a good time to contemplate, investigate, and/or analyze. It is not a good time to sign papers, buy houses or cars, or make large purchases or binding decisions. Since Mercury is your ruling planet, this goes double for you.  Your mantra is “Patience is a virtue.”

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) You’re used to traveling with a GPS and a plan. Those tools won’t help you now. You’re required to make your new moves while relying solely on the oldest navigational devices known to us– the heart and the intuition. They never lie to you, so learn to use them with faith and confidence.

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) It’s time to assess your life and your goals from a new perspective. Use the magic keywords– balance, fairness, and harmony– to unlock the treasures that will reflect your true value and give you the greatest return for your efforts. You’ll discover passion and stability in a more meaningful way.

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) Mercury is your ruling planet, too, so please pay heed– your message is the same as THE LOVERS with this additional message– it’s very important that you keep your own counsel during this Mercury retrograde period. Some things do not need to be said right now. Wait until Mercury goes direct to speak and the Universe will have your back.

JUSTICE (September 23 — October 22) Luck is your new best friend! Apply positive action to that luck and you’ll be able to watch the magic happen! This is a good time to review your wish list and begin actively working to make one of the items on it happen. Angels will show up to help you in the most unexpected but delightful ways.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 — November 21) Your inspiration comes from the knowledge that you’re never given a wish without being given the means to manifest it. Your triumph comes from rolling up your sleeves and doing some of the unglamorous, behind-the-scenes tasks necessary for a successful outcome. Living your dream is possible– just do your part and express gratitude– God will do the rest.

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 — December 21) The energy is pretty intense at this time and you may be feeling a bit overwhelmed. That’s OK– you’re in a compelling transformational phase right now. As the year draws to a close, you’ll ease into the flow of this new way of being. Embrace it and allow it to embrace you. You’ll love the outcome!

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) Your imagination is really active right now and you’re “giving birth” to a lot of new creations, one of whom is the transformed and transcending you!  Remember to nurture yourself and express heartfelt gratitude for your epic journey and phenomenal rewards.

THE STAR (January 20 — February 19) This is a time of big change for you. Although, no one likes change, these changes really are for the better. Please don’t fight the process– just go with the flow and you’ll find that the Universe will replace your old ideas with a smoother, richer, and much more accurate reflection of you and the life you’re meant to live.

THE MOON (February 20 — March 20) Fairy tales and myths are based on truth. The Universe is asking you to honor yourself by acknowledging your inspiring myth or fairy tale and then doing all you can to live it. New life and new opportunities await you. Be open to these exciting challenges. A generous offer will come your way soon. Please– do accept it — you’ll be glad you did.

As we enter into the last quarter of the year, slow down, relax, and reflect on being present for one of the most memorable events of the ages– the on-going transformational shift that’s creating so much change and enabling us to see what we’re really committed to.

The efficacy of last month’s advice spans the remaining seasons of this year:

Throughout the rest of this year, allow yourself to discover and embrace the wisdom gained from these past months of 2018. This wisdom is timeless and belongs to no gender, class, race, or religion. Its gift of priceless truth comes from the experience of living honestly. As you allow yourself to discover and embrace this new aspect of yourself, you’ll discover and embrace a deeper, richer side of yourself that will teach you to appreciate your value, courage, and heart.

Let your magic shine as it expresses itself through you. It’s your right and responsibility to let the powerful significance of your journey delight, define, and inspire you. Envision without fear, ask for what you want, listen carefully to God, take the actions necessary to make it happen, and experience the results with love, joy, and gratitude.

By so doing, you can look forward with fascination to the adventures, opportunities, and changes– expected and unexpected– of our exciting and oh, so interesting times with a sense of calmness and inner support.

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) You’re building your own empire and you appreciate what it takes to have a dream and make it happen. Stick with it because you’re much further along than you realize. Stay grounded, stay committed, and stay focused. You’ll have reason to celebrate by Spring.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20 Resistance is sometimes the other face of endurance. Not this time, though. You are resisting the inevitable– change. Your resistance is a reflexive habit and the Universe is going to help you change that habit. Help it help you by embracing one small change every day. By doing so, you’ll create a positive new habit and gain a sense of trust and freedom worth its weight in gold.

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) Gathering and processing information is your strongest attribute.  Please don’t let emotions or fantasy interfere with the process. You’ll need a clear head for the important decisions you’ll have to make in the next few weeks. Don’t hesitate to get advice from like-minded people.

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) It’s time for you to re-examine your definition of personal power, because it’s a magnetic force. So, what is personal power and what does it means to you? You’ll soon attract a lot of attention and you’ll need to be clear about this tremendous energy force so that it can work to attract who and what you want in your life.

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) Thoreau said, “If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.” Great advice. It’s time to implement it and build those foundations. Help from an unexpected source will make you an offer that’ll bring everything into focus.

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) You’re used to waiting until everything is perfect before you act. That no longer works. The Universe is demanding that you release your old ideas of perfection and discover the magic in the randomness of life. This new way of being will bring you excellent opportunities to manifest on the spiritual, emotional, and material levels.

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) Balance is your mantra and your mission. It’s determined and achieved not by logic or the scales, but by experience and intuition. In the coming months, it’s important that you make decisions by weighing the issues with your great strengths of clarity of vision and your inner feelings.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) You have a lot of options available to you if you can fine tune your focus. This is a good time to re-examine your motives and methods. Keep your own counsel and pay attention to your “gut” feelings. Your ability to see what others miss is at an all-time high and is your most powerful ally.

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21)  Life may seem like a high wire act right now, but keep your eyes focused on your goal and place one foot in front of the other as you ask for, receive, and accept Divine Guidance. Faith and appropriate action are your guides at this time, so ask for what you want and be open to having it come to you.

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) You’re standing at a crossroads in your life. Listen to your inner voice and follow your intuition. The changes you long for are on the way. Remember to keep your feet firmly on the ground as you deal with the sudden, unexpected occurrences that will bring victory closer to you. And always– please express gratitude for your process.

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) Life doesn’t have to be a contest of wills, i.e., ‘yours’ vs. ‘theirs.’  It’s time to relax, reflect, and appreciate the journey of your life. Yes, it’s been a long, intense journey, but you can pause now and see how much you’ve grown and how far you’ve come.  By assessing your life from this new perspective, you’ll see that, though the road at times is rough, your dreams really can come true.

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) The last few years have certainly been “interesting” (a euphemism for ‘difficult’), haven’t they? A lot has changed, including you. What have you learned about yourself in the process? What’s next? As you discover the answers to these questions, you’ll also discover the easier, richer path that life is now giving you. Do yourself a favor and please take it– you’ve earned it.

This week’s Tarot Card Gold Nugget is the– 10 of Swords:

Anxiety is contagious– please be mindful of your thoughts so that you don’t ‘catch’ this gloomy energy. Thoughts can become things, so before you conjure up monsters where there are none, ask yourself what the real issue is about. The more conscious you are of the origin of your thoughts, the more in command of them you’ll be. Give yourself a break and avoid watching the news for a while. And be like your cat– take a lot of naps.

Today’s Inspirational quote is by William Shakespeare: “Though the seas threaten, they are merciful. I have cursed them without cause.” William Shakespeare

This week’s Tarot Card Gold Nugget is the– Queen of Pentacles:

The energy this week is more practical and mundane than previous weeks. Practicality leads to Abundance! Prosperity! Fertility! This is a great time to initiate and follow-up on actions that’ll help you manifest your hopes, wishes and dreams. Co-operation, not domination is the best way to proceed. Helpful people and lucky situations will appear at just the right time. Remember to express gratitude to yourself, your helpers, and Divine energy.
