April 2007




	APRIL 2007 Happy Birthday Aries and Taurus Sun Signs Welcome to ARIES: SPRINGS THEME IS ALWAYS OF BIRTH AND RESURRECTION: What do you want to birth or resurrect? KEYWORDS for now are aggressive, straightforward and Adventuresome from March 20th as the sun entered ARIES we entered the Vernal equinox and a time of FIRE.. Spring, the sun and LIGHT THE MAGICAL THEME OF March and APRIL is Youthful energy and adventure: and THE TAROT CARD THE FOOL rules this time astrologically.. It may be time for you to PLANT a rowan tree by your door that only GOOD and peace may enter: USE THE HERBS and oils of LEMON and TANGERINE FOR JOY and how about putting LAVENDER Candles in the window to welcome all wonderful things to your life? The colors of April are all forms of RED, which is the color of passion, and new beginnings; Red carries unbelievable power if you wear it, or even visualize it. MARCH was about believing, trusting and manifesting Now APRIL IS THE TIME OF OPENING, planting and movement: April is the 4th month of a #9 year, thus making this April 2007 An 13 month, add that together to get 4 the foundation number of security, home, safety and what we all feel we need to be SAFE: Mercury the trickster planet of ideas, and communications is moving on Fast forward this month after the 10th when it also enters the Sign of Aries, until then we are in the PISCES (lets stop, think, and then still not be sure of the details mode). Aries energy is much into the “I AM” mode rather than the “I Believe mode” of Pisces.. How best to use this? How about visualizing your strengths, abilities, and courage and then believing in all that you are and making it visible to others and to yourself always? Since The Symbol of Aries is the RAM, head down and charging forward and with Mercury, and the sun pushing this for us all you will be happy to know that the Planet VENUS which is about love and what we want is in the more settled sign of Earthy Taurus until the 11th when it enters Gemini and ideas join with that passionate fire stuff will help to slow us a bit and when it enters Gemini give us new ideas. Venus will be the ruling planet after the 20th of this month and carry her energy of LOVE into all our lives if we are open idea wise to doing something in a different way: The Ruling planet until the 20th is Mars the God of war and passions who is wearing his Aquarius Energy and loudly singing the mantra is (I KNOW) As Mars remains in that astrological sign until the 6th of April. April 6th when Mars enters Pisces and (I BELIEVE) comes forward again to assist us in forward motion. This month’s complex mix of fast forward and Pisces energy of sitting back and FEELING the inner push can work to your benefit if you remember to stop and FEEL before pushing onwards with the next idea, plan, relationship, or vision. So, to make this month work, FIRST let’s try it on inwardly and then use this great fire and passion to make it happen for ourselves outwardly in the real world. Last month we had 2 more eclipses in Virgo (just the facts) and Pisces (the vision). So, these eclipses will reverberate for the next 6 months until the next set of Virgo Pisces Eclipses, in the Fall. YEP: we are not done with this energy yet. So let’s get used to flying under the radar and listening to our inner voice and maybe even turning into those guides and angels. A FULL moon on the 2nd in Aries (Self) and Libra (partnerships) and the eclipses last month set the stage for us all to be working more than normal on relationships. Full moons are about letting go so use this time to let go of old ways of being and make space for those better relationships coming at the New moon which will give you the courage to go forward and maybe get out and about a bit more? A new moon on the 17th in the sign of Aries brings much more Power and passion into our lives over the next 2 weeks. All new moons are seeding points or wish times until the next full moon, and create a new energy if you wish to use them productively. NEW moons are times of Increase so get ready for new things. The sun into Earthy Taurus on the 20th further increases our need to HAVE, that which is OUR OWN. Earth is always about building and in this material world we cannot ignore Possession or owning things, people, emotions, events, will seem much more important than last month. For me, I always remember what we possess that lasts forever are not material things, but inner strength, courage, compassion, understanding, learning, love and who we are daily becoming isn’t it? Jupiter the energy of faith and forward movement is retrograde after the 5th in the sign of Sagittarius asking us to balance that forward Sagittarius stuff with a more slow down and not push so hard look at what it is that we truly want and need. We are now in Spring and Spring always has the tremendous promise of the wonderful and fulfilling year to come. See yourself as the Fairy Godmother or Godfather of Spring in your own life and those around you, and wave that wand, roll up those sleeves and get busy creating. As Saturn the planet of accountability moves direct in the sign of LEO (which is about self love and heart connection) on April 19th we are going to be pushed to do a bit more than normal and hopefully Saturn has taught us all that when we do what gives us joy then we truly accomplish much more? The theme of this Spring for us all is not only growth out in the world, but personal growth and also the theme at this time is GROWTH in a good way for the planet. Many energies coming into our lives will tune us all into what we PERSONALLY (Aries) can do to help the planet and nature (Taurus) …So, lets get going and make our lives better so we can help make others and the planets live better. I wish you Blessings, peace, and abundance in all good things in this time of Growth of April 2007. Carol Barbeau is a professional astrologer who teaches and works in the Seattle Washington Area.

Please take time to honor this time of spring and REGENERATION and rebirth, and be good to YOURSELF during this time. IF we are not forgiving, loving and care taking of self, how can we teach this, or even really have anything to give to others? APRIL always carries the energy of ARIES and the energy of self and self discovery. Major planetary stuff happening this month April 2007 is: FULL ARIES LIBRA MOON on the 2nd Jupiter moves RETROGRADE April 5th in Sagittarius for the last time in 12 years, and we get a chance to rethink what it is that we are focusing so strongly on manifesting until August when it will again move direct MARS the planet of action enters the MYSTICAL MAGICAL sign of Pisces April 6th and we truly are more able to create a vision of what our dreams can be... and then create our life to follow the dream Mercury the planet of IDEAS enters the enthusiastic sign of ARIES on the 10th and we become focused on going, seeing doing and ready to GO FOR IT Venus enters Gemini and options open up April 11 LOTS to see, do and experience DARK OF THE MOON MAGICAL WISH DAYS 15th and 16th (see article on my website) http://www.carolbarbeau.com Saturn moves DIRECT in Leo for the last time in 29 years on the 19th and it seems that now we really must do what we have been told for so long we need to do. BY TOLD.. i do not mean what others have told us but what our heart has been telling us to do.... it is now time to listen and then act upon our joy isn't it? The sun enters more Settled Taurus on the 20th Mercury enters Taurus on the 27th and things settle down quite a bit Planets act kind of like actors in our lives, they do not control us but this astrological weather forecast is done with love, and an attempt at hooking you into the humor and the pitfalls of some of this rather intense energy. ROUGH days are like Seattle weather, not intended to keep you in, but rather to tell you to put that rain gear on and go for it a bit slower and maybe a bit more carefully. AS ALWAYS to thine own self be true: Whatever you read here that resonates and feels good to you, please use and discard the rest. Astrology is looking at planets and how they help us to shift and change here upon this planet…and it NOT written in stone. YOU ARE THE MASTER OF YOUR FATE as you can make conscious choices that will change the outcome… I have studied a great many years and learn and enjoy each and every chart I do for a day or a person as a great opportunity to learn and grow myself. So, enjoy and have a wonderful FULL MOON WEEK… and please slow down and enjoy life a bit more… You will never pass this way, at this time, in this body again…so, savor, and enjoy please. And BE KIND TO YOURSELF and others… Please… Sunday April 01, 2007 HIGH FREQUENCY MENTAL DAY The moon in Virgo gets us off to an interesting start today. WE ARE Setting up the full moon so use real care in dealing with others today. The Challenges on this Palm Sunday and APRIL FOOLS day are more about being too serious until 11:31 am then (mercury) ideas making a rough aspect with surprise? I would take care with the jokes today … People may be taking them seriously. This is a great day for healing and that said, that usually means that issues which need healing can come up. 6:37am the moon in VIRGO goes v/c and times out 8:43am the moon moves to LIBRA and people now want it NICE< sweet and kind. So Today works best with kind and loving words (but don’t all days work best that way?) 11:31am Mercury (ideas and communications in Pisces makes a CONJUNCTION (the Planets Touch) with Uranus the energy of change. Changes are not only highlighted today they seem to come of their own accord.. Color today blue for clarity and peace Use Amethyst to eliminate toxins, mental and physical and remove negativity around you Oil of release for the same Kiss for today, things take off in unexpected directions today so use care PS DAYS BEFORE THE FULL MOON ARE HIGH ENERGY, higher frequency, people are touchier and emotions closer to the surface… ALL FULL Moons heighten tensions and this one is LIBRA (OTHERS) and (RELATIONSHIPS) and ARIES (SELF) always a touchy one.. BUILD relationships today and not walls please.. Have you noticed that you are needing some more time for YOU lately? That you need to take better care of yourself? FULL MOONS with the ARIES and LIBRA theme always seem to bring health and care taking issues into the foreground. SO, slow down and take care of yourself because YOU ARE really all you have aren’t you? And:::: Kiss is keep it simple sweetie for the day V/c is when the moon times out and things do not go as expected Planets are actors and have a part to play Signs are the costumes the planets wear Aspects are how the planets are playing together Moon is emotions so we keep track of what sign it is in each day to better understand our own and others moods. Monday April 02, 2007 FULL MOON 10:15am here in Seattle The moon in Libra makes and OPPOSITION to the sun in Aries at 10:15am creating a full moon but before that….THE Sky sets up a party and everyone decides they are the boss, so keep out of this one if possible. REDEFINING relationships is kind of written into today, so make sure to only work on what you feel you must with those close to you. Otherwise maybe wait for a better day? I would not be having an office meeting today either if possible.. Regarding the above? This is a great day for a meeting if you really want to know what is going on with people and that can be a good thing, right? IT begins at 12:02am as VENUS the planet of love makes a rough aspect with Saturn the planet of accountability setting us for some interesting dreams 10:15am the FULL Moon asking us to realize that partnerships can come in all forms and that maybe the best form is the one with self…then you have the energy and tools for partnerships with others 10:04pm HMMM??? Good energy to get things done with Saturn but a bit of HEAVY Handed energy reigns this whole first 2 days of April. Color today yellow for joy and what you have to be thankful for Use Agate to ground you into the IMPORTANT things…things which will really still be important in 10 years might be a good rule of importance for today Oil of 3 wise men, frankincense, or myrrh to create a settled and spiritual energy Kiss for today is THERE IS A BALANCE between self and others and today helps you see what needs to be done within yourself to create that balance. THE TIME IS NOW… if you postpone what you know you need for yourself until you have gained all that you think others want you to do. You will never have time for what YOU need in order to be able to do what others want of you…. FULL MOON THOUGHT FOR THE NEXT 2 weeks. EMBRACE that which you are fighting and see what happens. Watch it loose its hold and fall away gently and easily from you. I love the saying: “I try, I fail, I try again, I fail better, I try again, and I no longer fail” Kind of like that if at first you do not succeed? TRY TRY AGAIN…. Tuesday April 03, 2007 This Passover day has some great energy The moon in Libra attempts to balance and create an energy of caretaking self as well as others as we still are a bit shell shocked from the interesting full moon yesterday. Please remember that the next 2 weeks carry a LETTING GO ENERGY. IT is now time to release in order to have space to bring new things into your life on the 17th with the next new moon. 12:50am luck and high hopes come with Jupiter in dreams tonight 4:01am GREAT intuition and some confusion add a magical energy to dreams 5:59pm good energy to get things done 7:29pm the moon moves v/c with a great transformation aspect with PLUTO the energy of looking inwards in order to create a NEW YOU 9:36pm the moon moves to SCORPIO and the desire to check into self is replaced with the STRONG NEED to do the above and a greater sense of urgency to know some answers which can only be answered by ourselves 2:03pm the moon moving to SCORPIO heats up our inner feeling and maybe outwardly manifesting how we feel things and also creates A bit more emotional sensitivity, so TLC please Kiss for today, sweet like honey, should be words to others today and tomorrow Oil of Pine for inner and outer clearing Color today white for purity of vision for yourself Use pearls for wisdom or abalone or a water energy today to assist you to slow down and FEEL what is going on … Feeling is a good thing. FEEL the energy and then let it pass through you and transmute the feeling if it is negative. BUDDHIST practices say that only by FEELING life can we truly think what we need to do next. Think about it, doesn’t the mind lead you on a merry chase sometimes? AND yet, when you get quiet, breathe and BRAVELY go into whatever is going on you really do get the answers don’t you? What you do or are today is nothing compared to what you can be or do tomorrow is our KISS of the month..& Every day brings new experiences that allow our soul to grow. THE truth is that you always really do know what will assist you to be a bigger and better person, the hard part is doing it isn’t it? AND EACH DAY we can grow better and stronger and more in connection with that powerful inner voice.. WOW isn’t that a thought? Whatever you were yesterday or the day before, each new day offers you the opportunity to be stronger, braver, more loving, and forgiving than the day before. I like that, how about you? Wednesday April 04, 2007 SLOW Down and keep it simple today please The moon in Passionate Scorpio creates some intense dream energy which could carry into a day when we are perhaps not quite sure what it is that we Really do want. This is a great day for psychics who ARE TUNED in and a bad day for those who are confused to make MAJOR CHOICES. AND so this is a WONDERFUL DAY TO ponder, process and maybe turn it over to higher power isn’t it? 12:17am mercury which likes to clarity in mental processes makes a square with Jupiter the planet of faith. The facts are not going to come out as you think they should today. Do not waste this day doing taxes or bills, maybe just tune into that magical energy of the universe and let go and see what happens or what you hear? 11:17am Venus the planet of love and what we like, squares the planet of Illusion Neptune. More of the above added with a bit of confusion. Ignore the details and look at the big picture today and learn about yourself. MAKE NO COMMMITTMENTS TODAY IF POSSIBLE:::: this is one of those days when our mouths can write checks that our fannies cannot cover. 5:20pm mars (ACTION) makes a great aspect with INNER WORK and transformation (PLUTO) adding a stronger INNEY energy to today. Keep to your own stuff today and try not to get involved in others processes if possible. Color today purple for spiritual connection Larimer or turquoise for shamanic connection to self Oil of cinnamon to clear the head and cheer you Kiss (keep it simple sweetie) trust and know if you are doing the right thing that it truly will turn out right. And harm to none please. The Kiss for today is .......... remember ideas turn into reality, so make your reality a good one by thinking of what you want to happen Oil of Lemon or tangerine for joy, or frankincense for spiritual peace OR, sage or pine to clear energy and fears I would suggest a stone today that you love and connect with, Amber for me perhaps Because of the wisdom and earth connection it carries. Amber helps me to remember how wise and ancient our souls are I believe that timing is important and use it for about everything. I never would have surgery with the moon in Cancer, Pisces or Scorpio and believe certain days are better for business than others which is why I do the timing classes and work so hard to get astrology calendars into everyone’s hands….. AND THAT SAID: I believe also that a strong belief and KNOWING that all will go well is more powerful than astrology or anything in the world. BELIEVE and KNOW and it will happen to make things come out the way that you want them to come out....…I have seen BAD DAYS turn out wonderfully when PEOPLE BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH and trust and are open to KNOWING that it will be good for themselves. AND WONDERFUL days turn the opposite with the opposite point of view. Thursday April 05, 2007 MORE OF YESTERDAY PLUS x 10 The moon in Scorpio today creates so many different aspects that it is impossible to talk to you of all of them. THE GIST is that inner work is highlighted, confusion is strong until 6:43pm tonight and flying under the radar is your best flight plan. 6:43am surprise… changes are in the air 10:37am you cannot get it all done, so breathe deeply and see what letting it go can accomplish 4:45pm confusion about direction. HOW about just going with the flow…and CARE TONIGHT WITH TRAFFIC Please. BOTH EYES on the road and TURN OFF THAT CELL PHONE Please Jupiter moves retrograde in the truth seeking sign of Sagittarius 6:24pm and the next 4 months are a time of great inner work if we will be honest with ourselves. 6:43pm clarity begins to come through and we begin to get a bit of a vision of our own processes if we are open to really examining our motives 7:54pm a ROUGH aspect with what we want as The moon moves v/c Home to bed early tonight please if possible and use this day for what it is really made for. Inner processing of What it is that YOU are capable of and what it is that YOU NEED TO TURN Over to higher power… Clarity is wonderful today if we can only release that “I CAN DO ANYTHING Attitude” and let others help us Color today purple for spiritual connection ….Spiritual connection to me is a sense of knowing that I DO NOT have to do it all, that there is a divine pattern and maybe I just have misplaced my glasses but it is there, whether I can see it or not.. Use Kyanite to raise spiritual awareness & TUNE IN Or Amber, jet or an Agate to calm you down and TUNE OUT… and did you know PROTECTIVE stones are agates, jet, obsidian and all the Dark stones Oil of Pine for inner and outer clearing Kiss for today is slow down, use care and visualize peace, love and joy and make it happen for you and those around you today and everyday Once many years ago I had a spiritual teacher who was talking to me about things being unfair. He said that at any time we can be tested by things which we KNOW we do not deserve and in those tests and in the way you respond lies the truth as to how far you have come on your path…... IT IS not you being punished, but you being shown that you can truly be the PHILOSOPHERS stone if you work what you have learned into your real life……... Do you know what The Philosophers stone was? IT was the stone that TURNED STRAW into Gold… JUST like your own mind… Regarding astrology and the language which is often confusing. I try to keep it as simple as possible and.. Aspects are like relationships that the planets have between each other. Some days they are grumpy and grouchy and snap and hiss at each other and some days they smile and are helpful as they operate in cohesive harmony. (ps, kind of like us, they have good days and Grouchy, grumpy days where they just want to be left alone) then we here on the earth get to see this reflected in events, driving and things around us. Being aware of this stuff just enables you to shift your perspective and more happily traverse the Road of life and is the reason I do the daily reports for you. Kiss is keep it simple sweetie V/c is a time when the moon makes no aspects and things do not go as planned (which sometimes can be a good thing can’t it?) Essential oils and stones are just ideas, and suggestions, NOT necessary at all, so do what feels BEST for you.. CONTACT me and I will put you into connection with a young Living oil representative, and you will see a direct link below on one of the days to Sharon Brigance who taught me all i know about oils and IS SO BRIGHT and can really help you if you wish some assistance.. The moons importance each day rules things like surgery, driving, and sometimes a bit how our ways of dealing with things happen. So, the moon in Fire increases passion, action and firey things. In water, intuition, emotions and dreams, Air, ideas and communications and in Earth the Urge to build and anchor our lives in more firmly to our desires. So, in short this report is like a bit of a roadmap for the quickest way to your destination. AND LIKE A ROADMAP, it does not have to be followed as there are always alternate routes aren’t there? AND we do have archived reports and monthly overviews and lots of fun articles and things on the website http://www.carolbarbeau.com So, please use what works for you here, and discard the rest, I hope that this monthly report gives you some smiles, some thoughtful moments thought, and most of all brightens your day and encourages you on your path. I have always believed that i am the MOTEL 6 of astrologers. MY JOB is to leave the light on for you ... I wish you Love and Joy and abundance in all good things Always, Carol Barbeau carolastro@carolbarbeau.com Friday April 06, 2007 HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY WOW::: what a day. 9:57am the moon moves into Sagittarius and we are rid of that rather icky v/c time from yesterday. DOORS opened at 1:51am as MARS the planet of action passion anger and getting our fannies into gear moved into dreamy and illusionary Pisces. SO look at the dream, the vision and realize that until Mars moves into ARIES ON May 15th we are in a stage of dreaming, seeing, feeling and then it will happen. GET rid of those lists, those organizers, and the linear way of thinking and if you want things to move much faster become connected to that vast and immense universal feeling of JUST KNOWING and.. Some of my clients often ask how it is that you KNOW what you KNOW is right? For me, I know & try to follow the universal laws, HARM TO NONE: keeping good Positive thoughts as much as possible, working for the good of the all and all that when you are in sync with that you are going the right direction. SO that little voice that says GET EVEN OR "hate" OR prejudice, anger, envy, ..... is NOT higher power our my guides and angels, but rather, that voice is ego and the voice that says JUST LET IT GO Carol, it is not important IS higher power.. Feel it (what you are hearing) and if it feels right, good and for the good of the all, then you will know it is the message of Higher power.. With lots of planets in Pisces and with the Sun in Aries, the temptation is to PUSH so vision with a BANG is what I call this time 1:51am MARS into Pisces 9:57am the moon into SAGITTARIUS and there is FIRE ALL OVER THE place with the sun in Aries, NO PUSHING no shoving and read the kiss for today please 10:30am a square from the moon wanting FORWARD ever faster to Mars wanting us to do all that fun stuff I wrote about above makes this a day when we must do something different to get correct outcome AGAIN: MY saying for the month is IF YOU WANT SOMETHING TO HAPPEN WHICH HAS NOT HAPPENED BEFORE YOU MUST DO SOMETHING you have never DONE Before. KISS FOR TODAY is a warning:: DO not take on more than is reasonable Color today blue for your own truth, nobody else’s, just YOURS Use mother of pearl or moonstone to connect to your own feelings Oil of Rosemary to remember what will help you feel happier PS DREAMS and visions are strong for us all right now so... STOP and listen to that inner voice. AND I think of inner voice as if I would suggest you do something that SOUNDS HORRIBLE, you know you should NOT DO and DO NOT Want to do. think of that voice which says NOOOOOO way am I doing that. that is inner voice, so you do have it don’t you?? DID you know? SIGNS rule body parts so if you have a problem with any of these things look at the house and planets which you have in these signs for the answers of how to cure the illness or problems. Aries rules the upper head, eyes, sinus, headaches, colds? Taurus rules the jaws, throat, neck, ears, teeth, thyroid Gemini the shoulders, arms, hands, rheumatism Cancer the lungs, chest, stomach, liver, gall bladder Leo the heart, circulation, blood pressure, anemia Virgo digestive system, spleen pancreas, weight Libra the kidneys, bladder, hips Scorpio the sexual organs, infertility, menses Sagittarius thighs (SO I can blame it on Sagittarius) Capricorn, knees, bones, skin, spine Aquarius lower legs, ankles, calves Pisces feet, corns, and warts. Saturday April 07, 2007 FIRE and passion and fun day The moon in Sagittarius gets some assistance today as we have some great things going on. FIRE is the theme and Fire is passion, action and go for it SO, use this day to have fun, mix, mingle and try not to push others too much. FIRE is also anger, and road stuff of a not nice nature People will feel the NEED TO SPEED today for sure. 9:11am a sextile or aspect of help from Mercury (ideas) in the sign of Pisces to the planet of love Venus and what we want.... Venus is wearing the sensual earthy sign of Taurus making this a rich and wonderfully sensual day of indulgences and romance and great connections to REALLY listening and REALLY HEARING each other. ONE of the neatest things happened to me the other day I walked into a room and my male 45 year old business partner was watching TV. He turned the TV off to talk to me I told him to leave it on, but like all good friends, he knew that being open, and 100% there he would show me his interest. HOW many of us focus and pay 100% attention to another person? THOSE of us who have this ability are popular, and well loved DOESN’T Everyone want to feel special? And how much more special is your relationship going to be when you help the other person feel that YOU KNOW HOW WONDERFUL THEY ARE? THIS is the day to tell them & MAYBE show them by putting them #1 (OFTEN it is not the HUGE BIG Showy things in life which catch and hold our attention and show us that we are loved, honored, respected, and cared for..BUT the small things like attention being paid to us... WE can all give that can't we? 6:32pm Surprises and romance if you are open, or something not so pleasant if you Are speeding and rushing. SLOW DOWN Uranus is on the road creating change 9:31pm a wonderful aspect between the moon (emotions) and the sun (where we are Now) bringing emotions into the NOW and more of what I wrote above 9:58pm obligations with love is what I will call this aspect doing something nice for someone you love will be much easier tonight .. Color today green for prosperity and healing and to calm you down Oil of Yarrow, for anti inflammatory and is one of the best oils to use on a wound or scar to diminish it. Sapphire for truth and clarity of vision Kiss, balance is the key, not too much of any one thing or idea today works well and communications done with balance will get you the WORLD today ONE of my favorite sayings is from Michael J Fox: I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for, perfection is GODS business. Sunday April 08, 2007 HAPPY EASTER Sunday HAPPY day as the Moon (emotions) and Jupiter (abundance) touch at 12:52am. WRITE down those dreams you had last night, they can tell you LOTS about what is really happening within yourself now. The moon in Sagittarius works hard today creating illusion, faith, trust and belief and magic as well as some fire to amp us up a bit. 12:52am moon touches Jupiter (see above) 4:09am a sextile (aspect of assistance) with the planet Neptune which is either Illusion or Illumination or both? Creating great visions and strange dreams 4:56am Saturn and the sun make a trine getting us up and at whatever our commitments were for today a bit earlier than normal 2:14pm CARE WITH WHAT you say, misunderstandings are possible but if you listen carefully easily avoided 6:35pm the moon moves v/c after touching PLUTO and the theme of this day is truly Regeneration and rebirth and maybe a bit of endings tossed in? 8:36pm the moon moves into Capricorn and we begin to anchor and ground into what our next Step needs to be and the mood becomes much more work and less play KISS FOR today. How about we BELIEVE and trust and truly listen to our own visions, our own values, and goals and to stay true to self? We can do that can’t we? Color today Gray for neither black nor white Oil of Lavender for healing body, mind and spirit Stone for the day? JUST whatever pleases and calms you down and makes you feel good AND another Kiss for today, Passion is strong today so do something fun and maybe something NEW? PS IF YOU are attending the group at VISION QUEST in Everett Washington on TUESDAY please let me know so that I can do your charts to bring. WE are doing a new moon wish and SATURN direct and JUPITER retrograde evening. COME and learn what I am talking about. I am bringing an ARIES NEW MOON gift to everyone by their chart and need to know for sure if you are coming. THE SAME CLASS will be happening ON THE NEW moon in Issaquah on the 17th if that works better for you... SEE WEBSITE for more events. Monday April 09, 2007 PRACTICALITY works and optimism helps WOW, the moon in Earthy and practical Capricorn today gets some real assistance from some rather dreamy planets, so although the vision is still there the clarity to do the work is strong also today. Balance would be super... 12:57am mars works to create visions as we dream 5:07pm Jupiter brings optimism and hope to a very hard working day Color today black to absorb negativity Use agate to ground or blue Kyanite to do kind of a self-cleaning Oil of Juniper, geranium or thyme to clear up worry and nervous fatigue. YOU know I always use RELEASE which is a young living wonderful oil that really helps unplug me emotionally and opens us all to making room for better things in your world, inner and Outer world get some today if possible and see how great it works. And we are still in that FULL MOON LETTING GO time until the new moon on the 17th aren’t we? Contact asksharonbrigance@comcast.net on how to get this oil and more. Thought for the week::: If you cannot be a good example for those around you and the world, THEN you just may be a terrible lesson for them. WE ARE ALL TEACHERS, we teach by what we say, what we do and by example. What are you teaching? See you tonight TUESDAY the 10th in Everett at Vision quest? Tuesday April 10, 2007 Last quarter square day asks us to do the work required of us ½ way between the FULL moon and the NEW moon each month we have a last quarter square. IN classes I always show a square as like someone is sitting over your shoulder you cannot see them or what they are doing without shifting and turning around. THAT is a square. NOTHING horrible, just a request of the universe that we shift perspective, and move positions a bit and today does just that. 12:23am Mercury makes a rough aspect with Pluto and dreams could be a bit strange 3:58am a great aspect with change may give us some answers to dreams or even plans we are making in the daytime world (I will not say real world because those dreams are a part of you, whether we always like them or not. 11:04am building becomes hard with that last quarter square as we are asked to shift perspectives and look at things from a different point of view 4:07pm Mercury the planet of Ideas moves to ARIES and we feel the shift into a LETS DO IT NOW MODE. Please don’t yet, wait a day or so until you learn to drive the new energy. The bottom line today is that feelings are strong and people will want to believe the best. A smile and a small gesture of love is greatly appreciated. Kiss the tone of what you say today could be more important than the words Color today purple for spiritual connection and pearls for wisdom might be a good choice along with amethyst Oil of jasmine or rose for love Want to see how far off our modern society is regarding the sky and the magical uses for days? DID YOU KNOW? Sunday is the day of the SUN, about family, self confidence, image, power and will Monday is Moon day, about intuition, emotional heart, and happiness Tuesday is the day of Law and warfare, the day of Mars, action, courage and strength Wednesday is about wisdom and the day of Mercury, communications, expression, healing Thursday is a day of thunder and Jupiter, about fortune, optimism, prestige, wealth & expansion Friday is the day of love and Venus, about relationships, balance, affection, beauty, and the arts Saturday is the day of Saturn, order, self discipline, effort, solitude, and FATE How about you? DO you feel this is in sync with your week? I try but often am doing Sunday on Friday and always seem to be doing Wednesday everyday To see events with Carol Barbeau this month, go to the Events page. Remember ALL CLASSES MUST BE PREPAID FOR THEM TO HAPPEN::: And It has been brought to my attention that some of you might like me to write more grammatically correct? Sorry folks some of this flows to me with and == and lots of ??? but maybe I do need to elaborate on the ?? IT IS NOT that I doubt what I am saying when i put in a ? mark.... RATHER it is to hopefully?? Get you to stop and think. See it just happened again.. WHEN I am not sure that something is being done I automatically put in a ?? Not that I have a doubt about what I am saying to but the ?? is an attempt to get you to stop and think but/and I shall try and be more careful about this since ?? Are my way of attempting to provoke a ? Within your mind and I hear from good authority that they are confusing...which again, may be intentional on my part, to get you to think? OR at least intentional on my guides part? see, am i a ??? addict??. I am so sorry if my writing is hard to follow. I often feel that I am being driven, guided or what not when I write and evidentially my guides are as full of ?? and @!! Points as I am. This is one reason I created the Kiss for keep it simple sweetie. Many of you out there have ABSOLUTELY no knowledge of astrology and perhaps just as many have quite a bit of knowledge. So for me, trying to walk that line between you all at very different places and levels, and to try to create something for everyone perhaps takes me off on tangents more than i should be explaining things Please enjoy and remember that these writings are intended to create a ? within you. Just as they do within me as I write them I think I came out of the womb asking WHY? And that questioning has led me to many interesting and varied teachings this lifetime. NOW on with Astrology for the day of Wednesday April 11, 2007 a day of unusual thoughts The moon begins today in rather somber Capricorn but that dramatically shifts by 4am so you should go to bed thinking one way and awaken a TOTALLY new you. OR at the least open you to new options. 2:57am the moon moves v/c after making a great aspect with VENUS the planet Not only of love but of what we want. MAKE AN INTENT TONIGHT before bed to get clarity on what would REALLY make you happy and ask for some CONCRETE answers if you do not already know. I always think that it is not GETTING what we want that is difficult but really FOCUSING ON what we want the MOST enough to make it happen 4:23am the MOON ENTERS Light and airy Aquarius and doors open to the mind And emotions are now seen with a great deal more objectivity.. AIR and ideas is the theme of today so get going on creating some new thoughts for yourself in order to recreate your world 6:06am we have another great aspect with ideas (MERCURY and the MOON) 12:35pm a great aspect with Optimism, generosity and idealism (NEPTUNE & the sun) 7:15pm Venus the planet of what we want changes her costume from fiery and Forward fast moving Aries to Gemini. This is a bit lighter and open energy, a bit less serious and a lot more playful time is here for us all until Venus again shifts costumes on May 8th to Cancer. So, for this time, let’s be more open, connect more, mix and mingle and be open to new ideas and look at all the options for a more pleasurable (?) life (?) job (?) Whatever you want more pleasure in. FOR ME it would be absolutely EVERYTHING: greedy girl that I am Color today joyful and blue like the sky in Seattle Use Sapphire for truth, or agate to ground you in a bit Oil of Lavender for burns, releasing itching and bug bites Kiss for today, who needs an astrologer, have fun and take off to meet new people, go new places and HAVE More fun Thursday April 12, 2007 Ok, here come a bit more obligations BUT we have a new way of looking at those obligations today with the moon in Aquarius and thinking outside the box is the answer for us all. The morning is rather light hearted and maybe a bit scattered with more to get done perhaps than is reasonable. Then comes 12:31pm and as the moon (emotions) in Aquarius. The moon in Aquarius wants us to have fun and be open Since Saturn (accountability) is in LEO and still moving backwards until it goes direct on the 19th.. I would suggest that you think of what you want and how to get it. There is always a way to get everything and if you follow those universal laws of harm to none this is the day which may perhaps help you get out of whatever situation which is not suiting your needs as the moon opposes Saturn. 3:06pm LUCK is here, buy that lotto ticket 6:18pm illusion, intuition and ideas mix for a wonderful evening of having fun and Not the best evening of doing the taxes or doing something linear. Everything is good for something you know. 8:29pm ideas, vision and the action needed to accomplish all of the above comes to us YOU DO KNOW don’t you? That some of this must be quietly processed for you to hear the divine answers if you are going full tilt, full speed ahead, talking, working, concentrating and not sitting down meditating, praying or even if you are sitting down worrying you are not going to be able to use this great stuff today. So, how about deep breathing as you clear your mind, concentrate on the breathing and let the world move away from you. At least 15 BREATHS to the count of 10 every Hour from 6pm until 9pm and see how that works. I used to go into the bathroom at the hospital where I worked and do this in there I am all for multi tasking and working the Emergency Room the bathroom was often the most quiet and Safe place for me So what if you Go to the bathroom, breathe deeply, clear your mind, let go of worry and just open to seeing, or hearing the answers isn’t that multi tasking to the inth degree? Meditating is just getting quiet, clearing your mind and to me Praying is me talking to higher power (God for me) and meditating is me LISTENING to higher power. Color today blue for truth and clarity Use sapphire or Labradorite for the same Kiss for today well, you can figure it can’t you? Be the willow tree and bend And take time to breathe deeply and open to enlightenment which never happens in the midst of being busy. ENLIGHTENMENT as the BUDDHA said comes to us softly like a butterfly lighting in your hand when you stand very still Oil of Basil to clear the head and help headaches, or eat THAI food it has lemongrass, and other great herbs and you get them naturally this way I hear that this works great for earaches also. NEVER>>>EVER>>>put essential oils directly onto an ear drum Ask Sharon if you have questions at asksharonbrigance@comcast.net WILD DREAMS Thursday, Friday and probably Saturday night. Take that tape recorder or notebook with you to bed and ask for answers, you will get them but will you remember if you do not wake up and write it down or record it? Friday the 13th A DAY OF LUCK::: E mail me for the whole article on this if you are interested…there is a very good reason that this was given the name of a day of BAD luck by early Christian Church authorities. I got my information From Steve Nelson SNelson1@carolina.rr.com and he IS a great astrologer and Shaman in the NORTH EAST and he always sends me the most wonderful things ..tons of information at this man’s command I am always astounded and thrilled when I hear from him and have his permission to pass his wonderful words of wisdom on to people Friday the 13th, 2007 is a day of LUCK for us really. GREAT stuff today The moon in Aquarius decides to take a time out v/c in astrology terminology at 6:50am and then at 8:39am moves out of rather intellectually curious and not too emotionally connected Aquarius into WILD and wonderfully imaginative PISCES. Sensitivity increases, and what a fun day for me to go to a gem show. WOW, those stones will be calling us today. If you are in this area: Apr. 13-15: Tacoma, WA at Tacoma Dome/Exhibition Hall (2727 E. D St.) Email: info@gemfaire.com www.gemfaire.com if you want more information. Today carries some wonderful energy. I will quote the Mountain Astrologer Ecstatic moments of soul connection and spiritual delight cross currents with feelings of loss and uncertainty. Pisces is the sign of everywhere and nowhere, the nameless boundless universal field that ties the tail of the zodiac into a circle so, being in the magic of this is maybe enjoying the moment today, not worrying much about tomorrow and just BEING and for me to leave my checkbook at home is a MUST I believe Illusion and the planet Neptune are tied into Pisces and we ALL HAVE IT SOMEPLACE in our charts my 5th house of children and creativity so Look at the magic today and realize that this could be a day when you let go of the boundaries and shields and defenses you have set up around yourself to KEEP out happiness BREATHE DEEPLY and go with the flow today and take care with spending please. Moon in Aquarius moves v/c at 6:50am after making a wonderful Pluto aspect 8:39am the moon moves to Pisces and we become much more attuned to the universe 11:59am an aspect asking that you look carefully before making choices 6:32pm the moon touches MARS and this time with both planets in Pisces it is not The normal explosive day which we have every month as Mars and the moon touch each other, but more a time of inner passionate connection since it is PISCES stuff... Kiss for the day is THE BUBBLE OF HOPE FLIES HIGH today Color today, something calm and peaceful like lavender or purple Use amethyst or obsidian to remove negativity and calm you Oil of RELEASE to let go of all stresses Saturday April 14th this is a WOW day of anything except the facts The Moon in visionary and magical Pisces makes a strange mix of fact and fiction today and maybe figuring out which is which might not be the easiest task for us. At 12:34pm the moon touches URANUS the planet of change. MORE of the Pisces dreamy stuff like yesterday 5:07pm a square from the moon to Jupiter seems to push us a bit into either rash action or holding back and doing nothing. As always with Jupiter involved, this is the planet which just wants MORE for us. So, think carefully, make and intent and this could be a very wonderful day for you. ANOTHER not great tax day though I am afraid. Kiss: Respect and honor yourself today, recognize how you can reconfigure your Life and reconnect to your own sense of joy in who you are right now Color today Green for healing Aventurine, fluorite, bloodstone are all great healing stones Oil of Release of course for me.. This oil is a mixture and contains Ylang Ylang, Lavandin, and Geranium, Sandalwood and Blue tansy. Which cleans the liver and lymphatic system and helps to overcome anger and negative emotions.. BY attempting what others tell us is impossible we can attain the highest level of the POSSIBLE ... Sunday April 15, 2007 DARK OF THE MOON magical time begins (see website article) The moon in Pisces moves v/c at 8:02am and until 9:47am you might be best to just sit Back and not do too much. Often v/c are times when things do not turn out as intended and this one is not the best. Take some time and sleep in, get a later start than normal and after 9:47am when the moon moves to ARIES we are off and running with a fun and adventuresome day of activity The road to freedom beckons and at 5:04pm when we have a great aspect with Venus, this could be the night you meet that someone special. USE THE ARIES moon and be brave, do something new, approach someone with a smile and see what happens. AS ALWAYS COMMON SENSE is mandatory Today carries new information; ground breaking shifts and some wonderful gifts if you listen observe and learn. Which will be our kiss (keep it simple sweetie) Color today pink for love of all things Use rose quartz for the same Oil of 3 wise men (I love this one, it has all the frankincense and stuff in it and is fantastic for ritual or just to sniff and enjoy) Or oil of cedar to clear your mind and space Thich Nhat Hahn is a great Buddhist thinker and one of my favorite sayings of his is. "sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of others joy.” Monday April 16, 2007 HAPPY WILD MONDAY The moon in Aries is a pioneering sign, though the new moon is tomorrow many will feel the cycle beginning and the urge to create or do something new is strong today. I will not tell you NOT to do this, but dark of the moon, (72 hours before a new moon) are wonderful time for working inwardly and NOT the best for new beginnings. MIDNIGHT ideas flow strong and powerful 2:34pm getting the job done gets easier with Saturn helping 4:49pm Optimism works but this is not the day for launching new projects if you can delay, please do so until after 9:11am tomorrow 8:03pm illusion, romance and wonderful dreams come as we enter the NEW MOON WINDOW NEW MOONS IN ARIES are always like a NEW YEAR for us each year and tomorrow at 4:39am here in Seattle we get our ARIES NEW MOON Of the year. Color today PURPLE for spiritual connection Amethyst, Iolite, or Chrysoprase for the same Oil of Sandalwood, which is great antiseptic and spiritual oil Kiss for today is Keep it simple and be proud of how far you have come on your path. NO looking at what is not done, instead look at what has been done and can be accomplished: COLLECT the information and think things trough today and make NO major decisions please if possible. USE RELEASE OIL ALSO TODAY if possible.. I seem to be bathing in this stuff the last few days and since we are at the last day of RELEASING TIME this month use this tonight if you have it or order it today.. from asksharonbrigance@comcast.net According to Buddha "We forgive principally for our own sake, so that we may cease to bear the burden of rancour" TUESDAY APRIL 17th MORE COMING later in the week on this new moon and did you know? NEW MOONS ARE POWER DAYS: not the best time to make a purchase, or have surgery but the time to make intents, wishes Each month the new moon opens doorways to INCREASE and as the moon grows larger in the sky so do our lives. The new moon is a seeding time and an open doorway to some wonderful things. So get ready and make that wish today Tuesday the 17th 4:36am here in Seattle. NEW MOON IN ARIES IS A passionate and FIREY once a year NEW moon and really is the FIRST NEW moon of what the sky considers the New Year. YEP::: astrologically 2007 began when the sun entered the sign of ARIES the 20th of last month SO this is truly a magical new moon and I am bringing gifts to the folks at SPIRIT JOURNEY TONIGHT in Issaquah Washington to go with their chart and where 27 degrees of Aries is in their own personal chart. To see events with Carol Barbeau this month, go to the Events page. Remember ALL CLASSES MUST BE PREPAID FOR THEM TO HAPPEN::: HOW TO MANIFEST:::::::::: FIRST THINK it, believe that you can attain it, and then FEEL it as if you have it...., sense and know it is there, and what do you have to DO to make it come into manifestation? YEP::: there is always an action that creates the energy for an opening and sometimes just INTENT and the willingness to make it happen works, and sometimes we have to get out and change something don't we! The questions today that you ask of yourself truly can create a new world for not only you, but for others if you truly can tune into your own needs. ON my website and literature I have always had the Edith Whorton Saying: “OUR greatest task this lifetime is NOT attaining what we want, but in KNOWING what we want". ON my website under SPIRITUAL Articles there is one which has always been something I try to read each week: "DESIRDERATA II" read it and see if it reverberates with the issues in your life now and maybe can give you some answers? http://www.carolbarbeau.com PS THE MAY OVERVIEW is also on the website and you may find that my writing is cleaned up a bit by the wonderful magical fantastic person who does my website ... I hear that I am a bit hard to follow...if you think reading me is hard, you need to come to a lecture or workshop... (AND I am not going to be in Issaquah the 3rd tuesday this month, some family stuff going on and I WILL BE THERE ON MAY 15th for SURE and hope to see you there. ) I am taking a REST and relaxation trip May 6th through the 14th and will be out of town so AM NOT doing Everett the 2nd TUESDAY IN May as usual. I will be instead doing IN EVERETT AT VISION QUEST TUESDAY MAY 22nd and we will be having in MAY EVENINGS for and about OPENING TO GUIDES and angels and INTUITION and how to do this with the magical energy going on right NOW In your chart... I am bringing some intuitive tools, cards, and stones and what not and we are going to have FORTUNE TELLING EVENINGS>>> AT BOTH ISSAQUAH AND EVERETT::: SO sign up right away and make those lists of questions for the cards and your guides as we are going to really have some fun in May and be aware::: WEDNESDAY MAY 2nd is a SCORPIO and TAURUS Full moon. We are advised to take Care not to hold on too tight to what you maybe have outgrown... We will be a powerful purging and letting go time, SO we will have room for the MANIFIESTING on the 16th.with the NEW moon. So ..From the 2nd through the 16th of May will be a 2 week period of truly connecting with inner self and letting GO, and the NEW MOON ON The 16th is a TAURUS ENERGY OF MANIFESTING..of bringing in and increase. and IN May we have a FULL BLUE MOON On the 31st. Look for LOTS more coming about that one soon on the website...NOW onwards with this GREAT NEW MOON NEW MOON TUESDAY APRIL 17th 4:36am here in seattle at 27 Degrees of ARIES: the Dane Rudhyar astrological Mandala says of this degree "THROUGH IMAGINATION A LOST OPPORTUNITY IS REGAINED" The Keynote is that by us revising our attitudes and through inner revaluations we can discover that what we thought was a failure was in truth only an experience and through that apparent failure we succeeded in something... we are told in this degree that The development of UNDAUNTED FAITH in the pursuit of your ideas is NEVER a loss and there is never a failure as you keep to your path. THIS DEGREE asks that we suspend... "the I wish I had...i should have done...i could have been..." and really be open and see how far we have come and what we have survived, overcome and achieved.. For me personally, I will be making a wish a day for the next 2 weeks for and about me. I am a Libra and this is VERY HARD but have begin today with a wish for Myself for divine and perfect attunment of my body to higher power and to align body and spirit in truth totally 100%. Meaning, that my task (MY JOB TO help make this happen) is not to over schedule myself, to take time off, to laugh more often, to visit with those i love, to just PLOP at times and be ok with doing nothing, to eat right, and to sleep enough. At least this is what my guides say will get me my wish... So for me, rather than say, "I WANT TO not be sick anymore, or get over the pneumonia stuff" I am saying that by LISTENING TO what I KNOW I should do i can attain not only health but a better spiritual connection... THINK of what you want and then turn it like this and see that your personal wish will also ultimately benefit OTHERS won't it... AND IF I apply the Astrological Mandala to this I can see how far I have traveled just by NOW KNOWING these things..and instead of beating myself up about what I have not done. I can create a door to what I CAN DO....and by sharing this with you i hope to not bore you silly, because some of you already know this, but to open a window in your life of something you perhaps are struggling with and make you smile because we are NEVER alone on this journey of growth are we? Tuesday April 17, 2007 HAPPY NEW MOON and welcome in a time of increase & growth IF you have an astrology calendar you will notice yesterday and the last 2 weeks, was colored BLUE for releasing and today is GREEN for increase as well as the next 2 weeks.... AND you can do this on a regular calendar also. IT will keep your attention focused to a shift in energy when it happens. So for the rest of this month you would COLOR GREEN FOR GROWTH: AND BOY is that what today is about. The moon touches the NEW MOON degree at 4:36am and as the moon in Aries and the SUN in Aries touch we create a new cycle and our first opening for SELF this year. At 7:26am the moon moves v/c or times out after making a great aspect with PLUTO the planet of transformation and change. NOT an easy day perhaps but if you are open and LISTEN you can hear some strong answers for yourself. At 9:11am the moon moves to stable and security conscious TAURUS and the urge to hunker in and be comfortable is strong. Taurus is FIXED EARTH and this day creates energy of us all wanting to MAKE IT HAPPEN RIGHT NOW:: BEING aware that the positive side of ARIES is that POWER IN THE BELLY and full charge ahead, and the negative is frustration, anger and a bit of warrior energy. SO create war with apathy, and depression, and make LOVE with this new moon with what fuels your passion, makes you happy and GO FOR IT: Color today Green for healing & GROWTH Use pine or fir or some outdoorsy oil to connect you to your path Iolite which clears negativity and banishes the Blues and is called the SECURITY OF SELF stone OR orange carnelian for passion in your life Oil of Ginger for endowing us with courage and physical energy Kiss for today is BELIEVE and let it happen…remember this works both ways? IF we BELIEVE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE it can happen. so control the mind and then you begin to control your life. Lets all of us use this day to manifest, believe, wish, dream, hope and MAKE IT happen with the passion of this ARIES NEW MOON AND OUR BELIEF AND KNOWLEDGE THAT WE CAN TRULY have what we desire most. BEST USES FOR ARIES MOON be frank, direct, positive, articulate, objective, outgoing, fearless and bold in your truth LESS helpful ways to use Aries Temper, rigid, extremist, rash, impulsive and Manipulating. BEST USES For TAURUS MOON is to be solid, practical, straight forward, loyal, affectionate, usually a good time for SURGERY, contracts and efforts which you wish to go slowly and steadily forward towards growth LESS helpful ways to use Taurus Violence, aggressive, stubborn, rigid. Wednesday April 18th , 2007 SLOW down and process today, no rash actions please Today Regeneration and connection to nature works wonderfully with that Moon in Sensual and slow to act Taurus. So, please take some time for yourself, connect with the outdoors and think things through before making major decisions.. At 7:29pm tonight the moon will move v/c or timed out until 8:51am tomorrow morning and this v/c may not be the best time to make logical decisions. The planet NEPTUNE Is alive and well tonight weaving her magical mystical veil of illusion, of dreams, visions and seeing clearly is not her strongest ability but BOY can she take you on a wonderfully illuminating and fanciful trip into the land of maybe the last place you thought you were going to go..... 12:06pm an aspect between the moon and Uranus the planet of change creates some long lasting shifts, and maybe some surprises 1:52pm The moon squares Saturn and the feeling of something that MUST BE DONE now could be strong 7:29pm as the moon moves v/c it Squares Neptune. I often show a square as an aspect where you cannot see properly from where you are sitting. Squares always require that you shift your perspective and turn around to see what is happening. Since Neptune is at best the illusionary fog or veil? This v/c is fraught with wonderful dreams, visions, and illusionary psychic energy and truly not great for linear tasks. DRIVING the next 24 hours should be done with BOTH EYES ON THE ROAD. turn OFF the cell phone... TUNE INTO YOUR GUIDES and listen to them and PAY ATTENTION to all around you and you will be fine. WHITE light and prayer always work well also.. This is nothing to fear, rather a shift in consciousness that allows you to feel, and SEE inner stuff more clearly…softening and hazing over reality NO CONTRACTS after 7;29pm today please KISS FOR TODAY IS STAY LIGHT ON YOUR FEET; it will all change within an hour anyway: Color today white for purity of thoughts and actions Use pearls and lapis lazuli for the same tune in Oil of Idaho Tansy to fight cold and infections, strengthens the heart, kidneys, joints and digestive system AND another kiss might be to go slowly and realize that all you see is JUST WHAT you are seeing right now and more will be revealed down the road and what you are seeing with Neptune often is REALLY not there at all. BEST USES OF MOON IN GEMINI being versatile, lively, happy, imaginative, affectionate, courteous, kind, generous, thoughtful, adaptable, clever and logical Less great uses are to be scattered, egocentric, restless, unscrupulous, dishonest, self interested, pessimistic, sullen and irritable Thursday April 19th 2007 SATURN DIRECT TODAY Today with the Moon in Stable and sensual Taurus this morning (v/c) or timed out we should be a bit more slowed down than yesterday. The moon (emotions and feelings) into more active and curious Gemini at 8:51am creates an urge to mix, mingle and connect with others and takes away that Neptune fog from yesterday. Today as Saturn moves direct realize that where 18 degrees of Leo lies in your chart takes off with a BANG TODAY IS A GOOD DAY, if somewhat busy 12:34am a trine between the sun in Aries and Pluto in Sagittarius brings truth and honest to your dreams tonight 8:51am the moon slides into GEMINI and things lighten up 2:26pm Saturn the planet of obligations, duty, responsibility and connection to our path Moves direct at 18 degrees of Leo for the last time in 29 years. We are now finishing up the SATURN IN Leo experience and getting ready for Saturn in Virgo after September 2, 2007 so use this fire and passion and energetically charged energy of Saturn in LEO TO fire yourself towards whatever you have been hesitating on doing (IF IT IS holistically SAFE and WITH HARM TO NONE) Color Peach for love and passion Stones, Citrine, Ruby and other passionate stones work well today These are stones of passion mixed with Faith and spiritual connection Oil of Myrrh for spiritual connection and ecology for all you manifest Kiss if you work hard, you get great results today THOUGHTS FROM MY GOOGLE SCREENSAVER:: “The Noble Eightfold Path: Right Views, Right Thoughts, Right Speech, Right Conduct, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration.” “We need not to be let alone.
