The Controversy Emerges, Again: New Zodiac Sign Dates

Every few years we see this in the news as a "new" controversy. Some have even gone so far as to suggest the actual new dates of the star signs--based on astronomy rather than astrology. Astrology is not the same as Astronomy.

The actual sun signs have no relevance to the named Constellations in the sky. In other words, you cannot see the sun signs from astrology in the sky and the fixed star points represented by the Constellations do not correlate to the sun signs. Astrology is based on divisions in the path of the Sun in a year. Constellations are fixed points in the sky. To over-simplify, the relevance of sun sign or zodiac sign dates are based on the changing of the seasons. The more complex explanation involves mathematics, equinoxes, ephemeris and more.

To generate an astrology chart one must use an Ephemeris. The gold standard Ephemeris is the Swiss Ephemeris which charts the position of the planets and major stars with in a Astrological Chart which is mathematically created based on the path of the Sun.

Precession is another form within Astrology and one can do a precession of a personal astrology chart. Even that, however, does not change ones sun sign as it pertains to the astrological chart.

Also of note is the fact that some give credence to the 13th sign, Ophiuchus (the Serpent Bearer). The sun passes through this "13th sign" during pretty much the middle third (or a little more) of Sagittarius. However, my observation has been that this sign has been incorporated into Sagittarius, or acknowledged because each group of 10 degrees within a 30 degree sun sign has its own "pattern" called Orbs of Influence.

So, my position is that no, the dates for the zodiac signs have not changed, at least not yet.

What about the New Year?!

The good news is that tomorrow is the last day of Mercury Retrograde. The not-so-good is that Mercury will still be in its wobble effect for about another week and in its "storm" for two weeks. What does THAT mean? It is a good time now to reflect on some of your accomplishments over the last few months and review plans and clean up any loose ends. It is NOT the best time to begin new projects or sign contracts because things are not really in sharp focus for now.

What else you ask? It also means, like last year, it would be my recommendation to hold off making the traditional New Years' Resolutions in favor of waiting to Set An Intention for the year ahead on Candlemas Day (February 2) the day that marks the time between Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. Light up your Candles and bless the Light.

The year ahead promises to seem as if time were going much faster. It becomes more important to be grounded to Mother Earth and having your Chakras/subtle body balanced along with it. Working with the Ophanim, the great time lords, gets some attention now. That means that the "time" schedule of Ascension or Bringing 5-D (Heaven) to 3-D (Earth) has been accelerated which makes our "time" seem to pass more quickly.

There is nothing to be done for this acceleration. We cannot change it, we've already set it in motion and Mother Earth led the way a few years ago. What can be done about this you ask. We can change our beliefs, open our minds and hearts, send love where there is barrenness and meditate on Peace on Earth and Pray Peace. The crystalline grid will magnify those vibrational communications. We can change how we've been responding, not what has happened. We can take responsible actions and make sustainable choices on all levels.

What is Reality? [Part 2/2]

First let me express some gratitude and thanksgiving. I am grateful that we have survived to this point in time as a civilization. I'm grateful that we have a new reality on the horizon and that it promises to be a good one. We're either going to sink or swim with this one, and so we all have to work together....as one. That means....it is no longer true that God helps those who help themselves. That's the subject of another blog, next month maybe.

Oneness is by definition a paradox. Let me explain. You have to have individuality and individual expressions of All That Is in order for the concept of Oneness to exist. You also have to have to be able to set aside the self (little "s") that is egotistic among other things, at least enough to let Spirit shine through you. I have found that when I can set aside self (little "s"), I bathe in the sunlight of the spirit and it is beautiful. The minute I let my ego start dictating or comparing or thinking if only, I am allowing a cloud to get in the way of Spirit that is in, among and through all Beingness.

Now, here's another paradox with Oneness. Most people who are available and know Oneness are considered "nice" which is often misconstrued as passive. I would think that may be an extreme sometimes. For example, if you tell me to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge, I'm going to tell you, "you go first." If I am being attacked, I will defend myself, rather than just passively stand there and do nothing "because I'm supposed to be nice." I look at it as defending all those who wish to Be in peace. I do, however, check my motives in those moments and make sure that I am not acting from a place of anger and/or vengeance but rather, love for myself and all those who are peaceful and compassion for the perpetrator who is obviously uncomfortable with themself. I say all this because people have asked what if.... and because I've experienced it first hand, and because it is not necessary to feel guilty or anxious or bad for standing up for yourself.

Now then, what is really reality? Remember, my tag line on my business card says "Experience Your Own Reality." You can go there, wherever you put your focus. Make it good one, raise your vibration, celebrate, focus on Thanksgiving and joyfullness and that which is not benefiting you will fall away as the pure joy of Oneness Consciousness fills your heart. Then all you have to do is step into the New Reality of Oneness Consciousness. Now that'd be a Adventure.

What is Reality?

There will be another post for November later this month.
This post is for September and October (aka warning: long-winded article about Reality and Oneness Consciousness)

And so, it has been many months (June 2010) since I've posted anything to my blog. I have seen many people both at home, over Skype, over the phone, and at Venice Beach. Common themes have been "Why am I having all these moments of 'knowing' and is that 'knowing' real and can I trust it and where is coming from" and, "why are so many of my relationships being lost due to death, growing apart, or breaking up?" This is an attempt to touch the tip of the iceberg as it were, and answer these questions (which are related) from my own place of 'knowing.'

Science and spirituality have long been separated (that's what the Age of Pisces has been about separation and the symbol of the fish swimming in opposite directions is called a clue) and have recently been converging (think Age of Aquarius where oneness or global consciousness appears). Science is proving the veracity of many of our longest-held traditions/beliefs have told us and also what many of us have sensed in recent times. Yes, there are "alternate realities" and I don't mean you have be or have been in psychosis to experience them. Astronomy has string theory and Quantum Physics has zero-point vibration as proof that vibration exists even where it should not exist at all.

What this means is that dreams can become the reality that you experience and that you can choose to have a separation or oneness buy your deliberate thought process supported by your feelings and beliefs. It means we now can choose, responsibly, all of us, for harmony on this earth plane and bring 5-D or heaven to this space-time continuum on Earth. It means that as many of us choose Oneness and elevate our consciousness some of our friends, lovers, family members, and even childhood friends, do not elevate or choose to remain unaware or unawakened and we naturally, and sometimes traumatically, grow apart because we have chosen different realities. It means, as many indigenous Shamans have flat out said, "we must learn to control the outcome of our dreams and/or nightmares and become dreammasters (co-creators)."

If you read my earlier entries you will find that they have all been leading up to what we on planet earth in this space-time, right here-right now, can co-create. I've been experiencing what I choose to call expanding my ability to receive and many others have been as well. If you think of it as a river or bridge or whatever, you still have to release that which no longer serves your highest good.

Dimensions or universes or cosmi or... are intermingling. Some of us are sensitive to this and can access actual information from past times, past lifetimes, the morphogenic field, future times, and akashic records, and so forth. So, I tell my clients, that know that this 'knowing' is very real and choose carefully what you do, feel or choose to believe because that information is very real and your thoughts produce vibration which produce reality.

Interestingly, in layman's terms, vibration even at zero-point been proven to exist. Now, if there is vibration at zero-point, then there must be consciousness there also. Therefore, consciousness exists outside of and around and within all living beings. If consciousness exists like this, this consciousness can be used to create and destroy. However, because perhaps unwittingly, scientists have just proven that there is consciousness or vibration among and outside and around us all then there is also interconnectedness (or Oneness). If we use our consciousness we can co-create a harmonic reality with bridges for All.

No one has really come forward taken the zero-point theory to the next step which is to say, "Hey look, if there's vibration here, then everything is interconnected!" And if there are multiple dimensions, we can choose which dimension we want to function in. And we can choose which vibrations we want to receive or release. And we can choose to awaken or not. And we can choose whether to go it alone, separately, or move as one with our individual free will.

What reality do you choose? I used tell people that when they have to make a decision, make the one that honors the most parts of you. That is still valid today but has an expanded meaning with Oneness Consciousness.

Experience Your Own Inner Reality.

This is printed on my business cards to remind myself and others that what we think, feel and, more importantly do, is an outward expression of our own inner realities. We are co-creators, all of us, right here on earth. We can all do our part to make this a a beautiful, peaceful, and mindful co-existence. Begin by doing small things each day to help another and we help ourself. Or, perhaps we need to be mindful of our Selves so that we can pass on our inherent gifts to our immediate community. Make your reality a good one. As above; so below...Experience Your Own Inner Reality. Take it into meditation and grow from there!
