Thursday we move into the astrological sign of Aries, the first sign of the zodiac. This is a sign that is very grounded in the physical, even though it is a fire sign. It is a sign of new beginnings, as in the Northern Hemisphere we begin to see the the plants push through the soil, and hear the Robins singing. Soon we’ll see them gathering bits and pieces to build a nest so they can start a family. Looking at nature, you can see many of the characteristics of Aries. To forge new beginnings you have to be a warrior. To fly thousands of miles to come “home” to breed and spend the summer months takes courage, fortitude and strength. It takes a willingness to follow intuition and gut feeling. For a seed to sprout and push its way through the earth to feel the sun takes an amazing

In the Northern Hemisphere, March 22nd is the Spring Equinox. It is the midpoint between the Winter and the Summer Solstices. To me, the Equinox is an indicator of change. Over the winter, we spend more time with an inward focus, being with ourselves, feeling how the year went, and how we want the next one to look. We have been impulsed to clean up whatever needed to be cleaned up, tie up the last of the loose ends, so we can move forward with the Spring. We get outside, tend our gardens, greet our neighbours, and move forward with our lives. The Spring Equinox is in Aries, the first sign of the Zodiac, so we are getting ready to begin our journey once more. The journey through the Zodiac gives us the opportunity to learn what we need to from each sign, to assimilate the traits we need to

This New Moon in Pisces is Tuesday February the 21st. It has been a rather wild ride to get to this point this cycle, but if you have been doing the work over the past eleven lunar months, you will have released a lot of resistance on all levels, and developed some new behaviour patterns or ways of being that are truly beneficial. You will be ready for Pisces. I always feel as though Pisces is the icing on the cake. We have a lovely firm but flexible base and now are ready for the topping. It’s time to expand our connection to self and to Spirit. Bringing some quiet time into your life, allowing yourself to relax, may be doing some yoga, perhaps just resting (no books, no t.v.) will help you to centre, to connect with that deep inner joy, the Universal Love. Most of us are able

Aquarius is an “air” sign, and so there is a lightness about it, a brilliance. It invites us to perceive our own brilliance, to be innovative, to stretch ourselves and think outside he box. Be a little eccentric, be unconventional, see the possibilities and set your plan to bring them into being. We are nearing the end of our journey through the Zodiac this time around the circle. Aquarius is the 11th sign, so if we have been doing our work along the way, learning our lessons and connecting with ourselves in new ways each lunar month, we are ready to step into the possibilities we see for the future. We are ready to follow our hearts. We have learned by now that everything we think, say and do affects everyone else, so we dream with awareness that what we will bring into being must be for the highest and

New Moon in Sagittarius is Thursday November 24. It is also a partial eclipse. More changes. We have been searching the depths of our souls in Scorpio, and now it is time to resurface, to bring to light what needs to be changed, the commitments to change. It is time to bring forward a new way of Being. Sagittarians are seekers of the Truth in all things. They are the spiritual seeker, shooting their arrows into the sky, not always taking note of where they land. That is something Sagittarians  need to work on – grounded follow through. The intentions are good, you know, but at this stage we need to go beyond intention. We need to pay attention to what we are creating. in the moment. It is said that Sagittarians can be clumsy. If we take our eyes off the chocolate that’s in the future, or over the

  Scorpio is a time of transformation, of change, of facing our fears, and moving into the empowered beings that we naturally are. We journey into the depths to find and release what is holding us back. For these 28 days we have some extra support for our growth. These next days could be very interesting energetically. Many of you will be aware of the December 12, 2012 date for the end of the Mayan calendar and all the mystery surrounding that. What many may not be aware of is that according to scholar John Calleman and Barbara Hand Clow, the calendar actually ends this Friday October 28th. My take on it is that there may be a shift energetically that day. The world is not going to end. (It can’t, I have appointments booked after that, and I’m sure you do as well). If any one feels an energetic
