Happy February 2007
Happy Birthday Aquarius and Pisces Sun sign people
February is the 2nd month of a number 9 year making this month an 11 or 2 which is a magical SPIRITUAL number of connection to others. I would ask that we use this month of partnerships to deepen and strengthen the most important partnership of all, the one within self. February was named from the Latin word Februare, a word that the Latin’s borrowed from the Sabines and it means “TO PURIFY” Self.
January 20th through February 18th in the American Indian Tradition is called the REST AND CLEANSING MOON. IT is said that a silver cord that holds our souls to our body in energized during this time. Using silver, water, candles and anything, which aids your own internal perception and will help your emotions to flow properly works well during this time, what can it hurt and most of us surely need more energy don’t we?
MY New Year meditation brought powerless to me in power outages and so many other things that I had to laugh. Don’t we all say “GIVE ME A SIGN” well, what signs are you receiving now and are you recognizing them?
- Colors for February are traditionally Silvers and blues for cleansing and clearing
- Flowers are Snowdrops and wood anemone:
- And the stones held sacred in ancient times were the Peridot and coral. And from Ancient times the Amethyst, and did you know this gemstone is used in the rings of catholic bishops? Generating the power from within is our task for right now.. AND as planets are only messengers or energies to bring powers to us, please use this months gifts to reflect, ponder and shift your mind and then watch your life follow. We are truly dreaming our lives and I kept getting “OUR LIVES ARE SELF FULFILLING PROPHECIES” in meditations this month…
And as we begin a new year With a POWERFUL Full moon on the 1st.. And the next 2 weeks open us to Releasing and letting go of the past. This Is a time where we are given the energy of Heart centered Leo (fire and passion) with the mentally agile intellect of the moon in Aquarius (Air) to break old patterns and really connect with what is important to ourselves.
To make this process of letting go, rethinking and reconfiguring our lives, even easier for us to do we will have Mercury going retrograde this year 3 times in (YEP) water signs again, just like last year. The difference is that this water (emotions) energy will back into AIR (ideas) this month giving us some much needed mental distances from those powerful energies which have us a bit more frustrated and with a shorter fuse than normal. January surely was a HOT temper month for many wasn’t it? WE can blame this on the Planet PLUTO being at the galactic center, discovering another Planet in the sign of Aries and Jupiter in Sagittarius…and Saturn in Leo….this is all FIRE ENERGY and if you are not jazzed about life, it could have backed up on you into a forest fire of emotions and some frustrations? This is only in order to show you what you need to change and is a GOOD thing if you look at it this way.
Mercury retrograde at 10 Degrees of Pisces on the 13th at 8;38pm will bring us into connection with intuition and rethinking and maybe preplanning issues close to our hearts. And when Mercury moving backwards backs into Aquarius on the 26th a much needed emotional distancing is available to us in order for us to process plans and visions of where the 9 year of endings on this planet is taking us. Care with contracts and new purchases during this time but all doing with RE works wonderfully. I have articles on my web site about this if you want to know more..
With the sun in the sign of Aquarius until the 18th we are asked to ponder deeply the meaning of life and create new visions of ourselves and how we connect to others. AND then On the 18th when the Sun enters the watery and psychic land of Pisces.. Those visions become much more real, and the ability to touch, smell, feel and really connect with more than you could dream possible becomes stronger. This energy will work in relationships, business and your inner world and is much more powerful this year than ever before...
The New moon or bringing in time on the 17th is Aquarius energy which again, is FIXED AIR and gives us the strength to break old patterns, ideas and habits and bring in those to assist us who will help. Remember this is a master spiritual 11 month.
This is the month to remember that you are here on this planet as a direct response from a need this planet has. You are here for people, events, and to assist with your gifts, just your smile can change the world. Do not wait until you have that class, that degree, that whatever you think is important to begin your life work…. Begin now to answer the need which brought your soul to this planet. YOU are needed since there is just the ONE you isn’t there?
- Feb 01, full moon letting go time for the next 2 weeks
- Feb 02 Candlemas and mercury (ideas) into psychic Pisces
- Feb 08 Intuition touches the light as the Sun and Neptune join
- Feb 13th through March 7th mercury retrograde
- Feb 15th, 16th Dark of the moon wish times
- Feb 17th NEW Moon, bringing in time for the next 2 weeks
- Feb 18th the sun, the Light into Pisces
- Feb 21st Venus which is LOVE moves to Aries and we begin to risk more
- Feb 25th mars (action) to Aquarius
- Feb 26th Mercury backs out of Pisces into Aquarius
What is Aquarius? IT is the 11th sign of the zodiac and is about equality, freedom and choices. It is the energy which allows you to make the decision that just because the rest of the herd is jumping off the cliff that you DO not have to join them. IT is a fixed air sign and is about breaking old rules that No longer define who you are. WOW…and we are all gifted with Lots of this energy this month. Let’s use it and GO FOR THE GOLD:

HAVE A WONDERFUL MONTH and remember life is what happens while we are waiting for our plans and what we thought was going to happen.....to happen.... So live ..laugh...love....and be present in the moment and see what each moment gifts you with as a lesson... Love Carol Barbeau
February 2007 the 2nd month in a number 9 year, Makes this a master spiritual number 11 month of spiritually connecting with others..
WHAT IS SPIRIT? To me. IF you are interested in my personal opinion. Please look below the daily's. IF not, enjoy the astrology and forget the rest. this is FOR YOU you know and I do it to give you the astrological weather forecast. NOT in order for you to stay inside, but for you to be prepared and dress accordingly for what the universe is going to gift to us in the astrological weather. ALL events are GOOD events because we learn from them.and when we change our thoughts to that pattern. WE HAVE THE SECRET OF happy life don't we? AND this month has lots of presents as we have Mercury (ideas) retrograde and energy to encourage you to get the vision so you can do the action..
And let us begin on this first day of Feb.. 2007 at 9:45pm tonight here in Seattle Washington to LET GO of the past, of fear, of pain, or old sad memories, of all that holds us from knowing how wonderful we and the world truly is..(And whatever else you choose to put in here) Let's begin to let go WITH THE FULL MOON energy so that we can dissolve the old to recreate the new..So if you are willing? LET your mantra for these first 2 weeks be. "I am now willing to drop old concepts that no longer work for me and say."I Will no longer say, feel, do or think that" (whatever it is for you)
Thursday February 01, 2007 FULL MOON TONIGHT (balance is the key) the moon today in passionate LEO is about connecting to your truth, to your drive, to your passion. And as Always the FULL MOON is letting go time for the next 2 weeks until the NEW MOON..Tonight. The sun sitting across from the passionate and intense moon IN Leo, is in intellectual Aquarius and add the energy of Uranus (change) and Mars (action) being strongly involved I would say that changes are surely being triggered. IF you want a peaceful outcome today or tomorrow this is not the day to have that major discussion.(OR NIGHT) ..(PLEASE) Passions run high and as I said above.
KISS FOR TODAY IS Balance.balance.balance.
You will note the first part of today will feel like increase, things rushing in, action going on all around you while after 9:45pm tonight when we have the full moon you will feel a really significant shift of energy. IF you have an astrology calendar from me, 3/4’s of the day will be colored GREEN For increase while the last part of the day will be colored blue for letting go.
The mix of Leo (fire) and Aquarius (air) is normally a pretty good mix (one you will get used to as in 2008 this will be the energies of the eclipses) but with the other planets involvement today seems to snap, crackle and POP with almost electric energy. I see this day as us needing to BE like LUKE SKYWALKER and realizing that some of us may be blindfolded now and knowing that the FORCE IS with us may work better than trying to read that roadmap which today, just might seem to be in a foreign language? Remember both LEO and Aquarius are FIXED SIGNS and instinct works better with the other 2 planets today than reason. IF you set on Being sure you are right, you will be sure to be wrong in someone's book I promise you .win..win.works best.
So today I shall remember: One of my teachers once told me that for me to be a good teacher I had to think of myself as the only unenlightened person in the world .and in that way I would allow everyone to teach me something and to be open and compassionate with others always.
- Color today Pink for love and NOT the love of winning
- Use Amethyst for purity and to dilute negative energy
- Oil of release to let go and Oil of Rose for love
- Kiss..winning battles today is about NOT battling
Friday February 02, 2007 HAPPY Candlemas or Groundhog Day or IMBOLIC This day has been recognized through the ages and many cultures as a High Holy Day of power. I see this time as Seed planting and isn't it interesting that we are planting seeds in a letting go time? So perhaps this is a double message of how we need to create SPACE for the new people, events, and energies in our lives? The moon in FIERY LEO asks that we connect to our passion and to our desires in order to create a life in alignment with our essential desires: YEP.LEO is the sign of DESIRE, and don't you have to desire anything to really make it happen the way you want it to happen?
12:05am a great aspect sets our dreams into connection with our path
1:20am the Planet of Ideas (Mercury) moves into Pisces and the energy of creating thoughts into reality is here, and the ability to be a bit dreamy and vague in details also
9:47am the moon (emotions) makes an opposition with Neptune (intuition) and we are either highly enlightened or wondering where the light switch is. Both are ok. just be with it and see where this day takes you.
3:34pm the moon (emotions) touches Saturn (accountability) and we get a look at POWER struggles (within and without) OR, we set our sails for our destination and allow this powerful aspect to help us move towards our desires (your choice) Whatever goes on can't you feel the stirring within you? AND IF not, it is time to find something FUN and creative and awaken that spirit and light the fire in the belly.
I drew an OSHO ZEN Card for today and it was the 10 REBIRTH.which shows a camel and beast of burden becoming the Lyon and rising up in passion and then giving birth to PAN the god of joy and happiness.TO ME. a 10 is a 9 of endings mixed with a 1 of new beginnings. Meaning the ending is here but the new beginning is there also.Look for this in your life today and all this month.or year? This is a 12 month cycle card..
- Color today blue for your own truth
- Use sapphire or ruby for the same
- Oil of Myrrh or frankincense to create a sacred connection to self
- And the kiss for today. LET the day take you where it wills and see if you can have fun on the journey
v/c or VOID OF COURSE is a time when the moon makes NO aspects before going into the next astrological sign and it often is a time when things DO NOT COME out as we thought they would. THUS we use a bit of care with this time...during this time THE WORLD DOES NOT NEED TO stop, but like traffic, often it is best to stop, look both ways , make sure nobody is coming at you and then go, right?
PS IF you are into backing up the computer this is a wonderful weekend to do so.
Saturday February 03, 2007 Finally the day slows and things ease up but be open to MIRACLES as Uranus the energy of change makes a wonderful aspect with Mars which is action.
The moon in Leo moves v/c or times out at 2:55am after making a wonderful aspect with transformation and into Virgo at 6:34am so we have a great v/c ..
2:42am wild dreams? IT was Mars and Uranus creating passionate changes as you slept
2:55am transformation comes through connecting to your passion
6:34am the moon (emotions) moving into the sign of VIRGO which is healing and allowing us to Finally feel the connection to healing and are you aware that VIRGO is the Sign of the Priestess and Priest, and hierophants and wisdom keepers of the Earth? THIS is why I always think of VIRGO energy as the HEALER energy. Inventive and practicality ideas, communication and energy come together today as we have access to some wonderful tools.
10:25am The moon and Mercury make an opposition and we have a strong activation Bringing new ideas to our emotions if we choose. I love what Shawn Lock always says about the HIGH PRIESTESS card. this is a card of a woman holding a Scroll on her lap. that scroll holds all history and all the information in the world. and she keeps it rolled up. Unrolling it and looking at it only when needed. She is NOT keeping it open constantly to remind her of the past but the information is there if she needs it. This is a moon.. Mercury opposition energy. ability to access the information without the necessity of constantly rehashing or revisiting it. Do you do if only's? Then you have the scroll open...
- Color today whatever the heck you want it to be, and use the stone of the same I would guess Aquamarine for me or sapphire
- For me it shall be oil of release to let go of all the above mentioned things, which I so stubbornly seem to cling to and to remind me to keep that scroll rolled up...
- For depression today use st. johns wort, lemon, tangerine and other citrus oils put Into water are wonderful.. And for calming down, lavender, chamomile, blue tansy, rose, sandalwood
- Kiss for today, do what you must today and use this great healing energy for self
Sunday February 04, 2007 Another day of balance and ability to heal Today with the moon still in the sacred energy of VIRGO Healing relationship issues seems a gift of an aspect that happened at
12:09am as the moon in Virgo asked us to heal old relationship wounds
8:18am the moon makes an opposition to Uranus (emotions) and change begin to happen along with the ability to find balance if we allow it to happen?
10:07am GREAT energy as Mars the planet of action in Capricorn gives us extra courage to do what needs to be done and the determination to DO IT
11:23am the moon in Virgo says heal thyself.and as this is the CROSS quarter day, or we are ½ way between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. Today we have an energy which will symbolically shift us if we allow it to happen. HOW to best use this? I would think perhaps a ceremony of honoring how far you have come.
Again, I often say. MAKE lists of what you have accomplished. Those lists of what needs to be done, just keep adding up. Give yourself a pat on the back today and look and SEE how far you have come.So today, you can look back .ONLY to honor self please with loving kindness..
- Kiss for today: GO beyond your ordinary modes of ideas and see what doorways open for you by STRETCHING everything, mind, body, spirit
- Color today green for healing
- Use green adventurine for physical healing and Amber or Turquoise for spiritual
- Oil of jasmine or rose for soothing opening to love and healing
Monday February 05, 2007 a great evening out energy after 6;15pm. Meanwhile.hang tight today and work hard: The Moon in Earthy, healing Virgo works hard today and encourages us to do the same. Today we are challenged to move beyond the practical into our truth even if it seems at the moment out of our reach.. Earthy practical energy today makes a HUGE shift at 2:36pm as PLUTO demands that we look within and see what within us needs healing and what transformations need to be made.. And the moon moves v/c. yeeps.rough v/c so hang tight and avoid major confrontations, purchases, or writing anything in stone until.
6:15pm when that earthy energy moves to light and airy Libra and connections Of a social nature become more desirable. This shift to Airy Libra activates a great desire for harmony, balance, compromise, and just generally UPS and lightens the mood of these past few days. Libra is a Cardinal (initiates action) Air (ideas) sign and for 2 or 3 days per month when the moon is in this sign relationships, diplomacy and peace seem normally highlighted. Sharing is strong tonight,,,this is one of those evenings to get out.mix and mingle and after 6;15pm we have a GREAT energy which carries us through tomorrow:
- Color today pink for love, pink sapphire, rose quartz, and amber for love also
- Oil of Nutmeg to calm soothe and center you, this is the greatest sleeping medicine in the world, did you know that? Get a fresh nutmeg, grate it and drink it in hot water, nightly night and pleasant dreams, and do this 12 hours before you need to get out of bed please this can knock you out BIG time. so use care
- Kiss for today? DO as you know is right, with HARM to none (Someone took offense and rebuked me for saying (WITH HARM TO NONE) last report. Sorry folks, I can just filter through MY filters when writing and though I do appreciate your input. I think often that I channel someone smarter than me while writing.and was called to put this in again.so.here it is again..)
Ps I would like to believe that we live in a world where there is NOBODY wanting to harm anyone else. AND/But, the reality is we are changing that with positive thought and some folks need reminding.so. my guides have their agenda also I guess?
Tuesday February 06, 2007 GET ready for passion.. Today carries a rather slow and sensual energy. We should be intellectually curious about others, willing to compromise and see the other guy's point of view. At least that is what the sky is trying to deliver you for today. IF you have another agenda I would guess it could be a day about OTHERS? And as always you have some stuff going on individually which I cannot see.and?? We do have that Uranus squaring Jupiter aspect.See January 23rd report in the archives if you did not read this major aspect which is happening all year and is creating a need to change along with a strong energy of us trying to learn to trust.(really lots more than that) but we all have this scrubbing bubbles energy working in our lives.AND it might not be the easiest for those who do not use the 5 letter word easily.. T R U S T
- Kiss: this SHOULD be a good day. As Venus moves closer to PISCES we get a feeling of something good coming as Uranus the energy of change is in Pisces are we are moving towards MAJOR CHANGES in our needs, desires, and modes of doing relationships..(ALL the eclipses this year are about SELF & OTHERS)
- Color today purple for spirituality, and power of knowing you truly deserve that which you desire and if you do not deserve it, then knowing that often we get great things we DO not feel we deserve opens us to RECEIVE those things. Thank heavens I never got all I deserved because sometimes I got much better than I should have gotten.. And sometimes not as good. so it does level out doesn't it?
- Oil of cinnamon to cheer and lift spirits
- Use amethyst to clear energy and keep you on track
- Kiss for today, TRUST and then do the work
MAJOR EVENTS THIS MONTH (I had a list earlier and as always saw more things happening and got more ideas as I began doing the daily stuff for the month..)
February 2007 MAJOR STUFF:::
- Feb 01 Full moon with the moon at 13 Leo and the Sun at 13 Aquarius
- Feb 02 CANDLEMAS and time to extinguish the old fires and light new ones in our lives. Imbolic and a time which that which was hidden begins to come forward.Mercury into Pisces, and we become more creative, imaginative and intuitive as well as? Perhaps distinguishing reality from the vision is not as easy?
- Feb 03 Mars sextiles Uranus, Sun sextiles Jupiter, and Moon moves into Virgo
- Feb 07 Venus (love) touches Uranus (surprises and changes)
- Feb 08 the light the SUN touches the vision Neptune
- Feb 09 Venus (love) makes a rough aspect with Jupiter (faith and trust) and we are asked, can we believe and love and be open and make it happen?
- Feb 10 Sun (the light) opposite Saturn (the reality) a last quarter square and we are ½ the way to our next new moon. AND ½ the way through the process which allows us to LET go this month And VESTA which is about sacred commitment to your path moves out of Scorpio into Sagittarius and we are fired even more to make significant shifts through the filter of love and passion for our path and even material love.
- Feb 13 Lunar Standstill Moon crosses the Galactic Center; Mercury (communication in the sign of PISCES) stations retrograde and will not move direct until March 7th. This is an excellent time to re. anything. Reconnect, reconfigure, Relate, repair, replace is not so good sometimes though, but it sometimes works? Unsolved crimes are solved often during Mercury Rx. And this is the best time (3 times yearly this happens) to clear up old wounds, revisit the past, get the information and LET GO OF THE EVENT and the emotion (NLP APPOINTMENT anyone?) call Shawn if you are interested in working with a MASTER 206-675-9169 (see website article on this event, it happens 3 times yearly and NO reason to get your knickers in a knot. I have NEVER had a computer breakdown during this time or any of the things that we are warned about. BUT I ALWAYS do back up.. (TRUST in the LORD and then lock the barn door is my theme)
- Feb 14 Moon (emotions) touches Mars ANGER bug or energy to get things done? Also today JUNO the asteroid involved with equality in relationships begins to move backwards in the sign of Libra which is about relationships not to move direct until June 6th..
- HAPPY Valentines Day. and Feb 15th we begin the MAGICAL MAKE INTENT TIME (dark or Balsamic Moon phase) see website article please..
- Feb 17 Aquarius New Moon at 29 degrees of Aquarius
- Feb 18 Moon touches retrograde Mercury and Uranus, Sun moves into Pisces. IN ENGLISH: wonderful energy to look at the past, make changes, and then As the sun moves to PISCES visualize what you want that past to be and recreate it with mercury rx.
- Feb 21 Venus moves into Aries, and we become braver at going for love and romance
- Feb 22 Sun conjuncts retrograde Mercury (LIGHT TO THE PAST)
- Feb 23 Gemini First Quarter Moon (5 Gemini) Time to look at plans made during new moon and perhaps begin to reconfigure them?
- Feb 24 Lunar Standstill, Moon at the Galactic Edge
- Feb 25 Mars moves into Aquarius and we are more able to ACT outside the box
- Feb 26 Retrograde Mercury moves into Aquarius.this one I shall have to write an article about.
- Feb 27 North Node and Uranus approaching conjunction with Sun (north node = what we are to do this lifetime, Uranus (change) and the sun is the light. WOWOWOOWOW
WHAT IS SPIRIT TO ME?
- It is feeling connected, happy and IN THE GROOVE, what is it to you?
- TO me it involves Constantly being willing to expand my life, my mind and my reality by Being willing to embrace experiences beyond what I think that I know and open to the unknown.
- It involves me being willing to risk beyond logic, beyond reason and trust in a higher power than myself because I surely know I have a way to go and do not have all the answers.
- It means to me, to love my job, my friends, my family, my LIFE It means to be willing to live LOVE and feel it in all aspects of my life
And that said:: DO I always have it? Heck no she says with a smile.BUT do I reach, strive and try always to go in this direction. YOU BET::: and . yes, she says::: As a part of this it seems we are required in this master 11 spiritual month to be willing to partner with SELF and to create a spiritual connection with our lives.. And maybe to love ourselves more than we have ever believed possible so that we can create all of the above?
As always, I am in the search with you for connectedness and though I do know the astrology that is trying to help and what it is pushing us towards. But I do not know how far it will take us if we do not do a bit of the work ourselves So, personally I shall roll my sleeves up and get BACK to the work of my life which is keeping that light on ...for myself as well as others...
- Kiss for THIS MONTH:::: HIGH Hopes and HIGH ideals bring HIGH profits in all areas of our lives..
- Color for this month green for growth in all good things::
- Use frankincense or myrrh and maybe Oil of release to let go of fears and ready you for that wonderful next step that is coming.
v/c or VOID OF COURSE is a time when the moon makes NO aspects before going into the next astrological sign and it often is a time when things DO NOT COME out as we thought they would. THUS we use a bit of care with this time...during this time THE WORLD DOES NOT NEED TO stop, but like traffic, often it is best to stop, look both ways, make sure nobody is coming at you and then go, right?
WHAT THE .. is GOING on now???
Are you aware that we are now in the MERCURY RETROGRADE SHADOW? Mercury the planet of ideas, communication and other logical stuff moves retrograde on the 13th of this month.
but since this planet will go direct on March 7th at 25 degrees of Aquarius. We have truly been in the shadow point of this planetary energy since January 30th. What this means is that communication could be a bit fuzzy, since Mercury moved INTO PISCES on the 2nd of February feelings and emotions have also been highlighted with a bit of illusion and LOTS OF emotion...
Personally right now I find things a bit confusing, it is more difficult to focus, easier to meditate, see colors, auras, and get into that energy than do the more linear logical stuff like set appointments, get the bills paid, work on the computer, ect... I think that most of us would agree that right now dreams are especially vivid and as we get an opportunity to revisit the (???) Past, our ways of thinking, ideas, feelings, emotions, whatever??? .and we are a bit puzzled as to some of the answers coming back to us..
So. right now today::
- The north Node what we need to be doing is at 16 degrees of Pisces, indicating that need to release firm outcome and move into the dream and the vision.
- At 14 degrees of Pisces is Ceres, unconditional love,
- at 13 degrees of Pisces is Uranus the bringer of change,
- at 12 degrees of Pisces is Venus the planet of love and
- at 6 degrees of Pisces is mercury which is anything but linear and logical this month.
All of these energies asking us to lay back
And dream the dream, see the colors and not be so into creating it our way but see what the UNIVERSE would like to deliver to us. not to mention our guides and angels who are working overtime with this energy in the sky..
Across from all this wonderfully dreamy energy is the LONELY South node (past) in Virgo attempting vainly to connect to something, anything concrete.and making a trine or aspect of ease to this is MARS the planet of energy and what and how we do things in Capricorn saying, LETS GET GOING FOLKS, lets get a goal, a vision and move forward. Now, all these Pisces planets just kind of want to hang out in the universe and BE COOL and lay back and maybe see some pretty colors. so?? And there truly is not a lot to anchor us in right now to anything but the dream.So, If you are feeling confused and a bit irritated that linear things are not going as well as you might like?
How about looking at the cocktail of pretty colors created by the sky, look at your, vivid dreams and be OK with that who gives a... Energy that lots of folks around you seem to be in. All this will shift soon. Meanwhile 4 planets in Aquarius (fixed air) are working very hard to change our ideas and ways of communicating. AND if you like me, deal with others.(have you noticed fixed, rigid, and unbending ideas and people being a bit of a pain?) well those are the people who think there should be a rule, and a plan and others are not cooperating with them.
Their time will come this fall as planets begin to move into EARTH energy. Meanwhile dealing with what is at hand requires a soft touch, and a gentle hand and a great deal of TLC with your own and others feelings. And expect like myself to spend a lot more time with folk's feelings than normal. and see the pretty colors and open to something new.willing or not the whole planet is being opened so why not go along with the party?
Wednesday February 07, 2007 Relationships should be better today Color today a pretty pink for love and beauty as with the moon in Libra we get some good energy to change, to open to love and maybe be a bit nicer than we were Sunday and Monday this week? What was going on then was the SOUTH NODE (the past) touching the MOON in Virgo trying to get us aligned with logical stuff and How did that work for you? (nope.do not answer me please) just think about it and realize that we have some great energy to manifest greater connections to those we care about today than normal.
12:42am Trust and make an intent before bed tonight and Let Jupiter help you
2:41am expect some answer for the next step.yes.work to do isn't there?
7:45am a trine between t he moon and the sun makes this a better day for folks to align where they are with where they want to be.
9:46am a trine (easy aspect) with Neptune makes this a very inventive idea day
10:56am Venus the energy of LOVE TOUCHES Uranus the energy of change in a ONCE YEARLY KISS up.. Changing love strategies might be a good idea with this, or just being willing to change your idea of what HAS TO BE? OR just being WILLING?
2:39pm an aspect of ease with Saturn makes this a day when if you take the time you can surely focus on what would make you happy and get some solid ideas on how to arrange your life a bit more into joy.
- KISS FOR TODAY: the universe is shaking things up, how about enjoying it and being open to BIG SURPRISES?
- Color today orange for creativity (2nd chakra)
- Use sun stone or citrine to get into your own center of self
- Oil of Release to let go of all that hinders your inner understanding of self
FORTUNE TELLING YOUR FUTURE Is easy.... look at what you are doing, look at what you are thinking, look at what you are worrying about... look at what you are planning and making concrete plans for and YOU GOT IT:: and now that you have it? do you want to change that picture?? just begin thinking, planning and working on WHAT YOU do want instead of what you do not want.... now you officially become a psychic, and seer who can not only foresee the future but create it. Carol Barbeau feb 2007
Thursday February 08, 2007 FEELINGS ARE STRONGER AGAIN TODAY Today at 3:38am the moon makes a v/c aspect with Pluto (transformation) aspect and we could have some wild and wooly dreams.OR dreams which show us the next step, if we can see past all the pretty colors?
EXPECTING CLEAR ideas today is not part of the UNIVERSES game plan so how about enjoying NOT KNOWING as 7:54am the sun (the light) touches Neptune (intuition and Illusion) and escapism is the surest way to find the answers. Mediate, pray and realize that none of this is REALLY about you.that we are all being divinely guided, pushed, prodded and pulled into divine order. (After all, that is what we came and signed up on this planet for isn't it?) And isn't that the gift we brought, being open and willing to share our gifts, even when we do not know we have them?
7:09am the moons movement into FIXED WATER energy of SCORPIO makes this a day of really truly being able to strongly connect to inner knowing. Ready or not, your emotions are going to tell you a lot the next 3 days of where and what is really going on with you.
11:46pm a trine with the planet mercury makes this a great night to really get answers.move out of FEELING with emotions and into feeling with intuition and you will have a super evening and some WONDERFUL dreams tonight.
Regarding timing, ALL DAYS with the moon in WATER SIGNS are not my favorite surgery times; and this is for sure NOT an energy I would want in a contract over these next 3 days. Hang loose and wait for the new moon on the 17th if you can? IF not, the 14th is a GREAT day even though mercury moves retrograde on the 13th.
- Color today green for healing
- Oil of lavender and oregano for the same
- Malachite for power, protection, peace and business success
- And the KISS for today is TRULY TO KEEP IT SIMPLE SWEETIE
"A coach is someone who tells you what you don't want to hear, and has you see what you don't want to see, so you can be who you've always known you can be." Vince Lombardi
Friday February 09, 2007 EXCESSES are possible so KISS.. Keep it simple sweetie for us all is again the mantra. The moon in Scorpio confronts most of the other planets in the sky today challenging all of us to truly look within and see what we are hiding from ourselves.
3:31am trust that dreams will be interesting and trying to expand you, maybe by challenging your fears about love? Venus square Jupiter is the astrological jargon for this..
10;03am great connections with feelings. LOL.this can be great or HORRIBLE depending on the feeling involved. NOBODY said all days had to be easy did they?
3:14pm good energy to feel compassion and connect with others
7;22pm good aspect to helping and knowing and working for the next step if willing
10:28pm Moon in Scorpio squares or makes a rough aspect with Intuition (Neptune in the fixed air sign of Aquarius) Neptune in Aquarius wants us all to find a new way of being, open our minds and in doing so find a new world. Scorpio moon wants us to hunker in and FEEL what is happening and work inwards. This is an interesting square to take us into dreams tonight.
Today carries new information; ground breaking shifts and some wonderful gifts if you listen observe and learn, maybe not the easiest energy but. strong and passionate...
- 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
CHANGE YOUR MIND.......regularly ...and don't believe everything you think.
Saturday February 10, 2007 be OPEN, let go of outcome and learn The moon in Scorpio moves v/c at 2:39am after making an aspect with Saturn until 7;01pm tonight when the moon will enter Sagittarius:
ASTROLOGICALLY today::: WE are 1/2 way from the FULL MOON On 2/1 to the NEW Moon on 2/17 and a last quarter stage... Moon v/c all day which should be very interesting so we need to stay open and see what issues come up. The moon will be in SCORPIO and water is great for intuition. Saturn seems to always involve who is the boss and control issues, so the intent today is going within feelings.. Letting go of control and using intuition and LISTENING not to your ego but to that strong and powerful inner voice.:
Remember v/c times are best enjoyed when you stay loose and realize things will just not happen as you planned and maybe that is the gift of today..
This is a rough astrological weekend, which makes it GREAT FOR INNER STUFF::: and poor for control.. SO I am personally going to be breathing deeply...knowing that we are all going to learn what we need to learn and let go of all but joy, open and learning and letting go of outcome and trusting in the divine power of the universe to make this a wonderful weekend for us all.. AND some folks are going to be doing some powerful Shamanic healing work with stones and nature stuff tonight and they get a wonderfully powerful aspect to help them connect our of ego and into who they REALLY are and who they are becoming..
- Kiss for today is sensitivity and heart energy today tests our sense of kindness as we are asked to renew our commitment to others and let go of Judgment and all control.
- Color today black for grounding and centering or yellow for JOY
- Use Agates, black tourmaline and jet for the same or sunstone, Or Golden citrine for opening and firing you onwards into passion and the next step. ANCHOR ME DOWN stones today are my choices, for you, it could be that the fire and passion needed could come to you with choices and ideas discovered today and tonight.
- Color today blue for truth and clarity
- Use sapphire or Labradorite for the same. LARIMAR for clearing energy. AMBER to connect you to the earth.Agates to ground and center. Obsidian and agate for protection..
- Kiss for today. Look deeply within your own feelings today and let go of control
- OIL of 3 wise men, sage, frankincense, Release, whatever calms you. Lavender? I love rose or JASMINE and my very favorite smell in the whole world is Gardenia so maybe this smell might be a good one today also? WHATEVER MAKES YOU FEEL good is right today. You know that scent goes past the brain barriers and breaks down emotions and assists with calming or amping up brain waves don't you?
Let us be big enough to be smaller than our neighbor, spouse, friends, and strangers.
Sunday February 11, 2007 The playing field opens with the MOON IN Sagittarius (FIRE and passion and truth) The moon in Sagittarius tries to clear the air from yesterdays interesting and challenging energy. Truth and passion and what we want to do again comes in conflict with other planets.
1:54pm The moon in Sag wanting its own way and KNOWIGN WHAT IS RIGHT makes a square with Mercury Ideas
8:56pm the moon squares Uranus and I bet you are pondering what you have learned this weekend? And maybe coming away with some wonderful internal changes. AND maybe, even a new sense of truth?
- 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
- NO DOUBT for me the color today would be black and brown to center ground and bring us into our body
- I will use tourmaline or jet for the same or Amber which always works for me
- Kiss for today? WHO ARE YOU NOW? Forget who others think you are and who you used to be.who are you now and are you happy with that YOU now? If not, get going and get ready for a new week which will help you make some huge shifts. Astrologically we are entering a VERY BUSY week.
WHY forgive? According to Buddha "we forgive principally for our own sake, so that we may cease to bear the burden of rancor" Genuine forgiveness means developing compassion and understanding towards whoever or whatever caused the hurt, and in doing so we are able to dissolve our sense of injury.
Monday February 12, 2007 This is A GOOD DAY for a Monday The moon in Sagittarius pushes us forward as it touches Jupiter at 1:16am. At 7:52am many of us begin the day with A VENUS Square, indicating that my grandmothers saying might be right. IT IS what it is and make it what you want it to be.
8:36am a great aspect with Neptune opens minds and creates a new sense of seeing patterns within the pattern and a way out of the problem is here if you are willing to make changes
11:59am hard work and joyful openings to fun come with Saturn asking you to connect to something happy, even if it is just lunch
4:31pm as the moon sextiles or helps the sun, we are a bit more out of that mopy and feeling emotionally out there energy and more into settling into the next step. Lots of looking backwards has been around in the sky and now the doorway is open and we can more surely and clearly see the FUTURE today:
- Color today purple for spiritual connection and yellow for joy
- I would suggest using something cheerful stone and oil wise, something that makes you smile and helps put a spring into your step is what the universe wants for you.. For me. Flowery smells and / or sage/ and maybe emeralds for my own truth and center of being, sapphires for a softer sense of the same.OR even Pearls for a softer inner connection? What you want today will be divine and perfect for you.
- AND the kiss for today will be HAVE FUN, be nice and smile at everyone you meet, you never know what that energy of VENUS might bring to you right now.
MERCURY Rx. Tomorrow but you are already really into it so.go to the website and read the mercury Rx. Articles and realize that this happens 3 or 4 times yearly and is a wonderful time to catch up. LORDY do I need this one to catch up from the last mercury retrograde, the move and new kitty in the house... Mercury rx. is great for anything involving redo....and a great time for inner connection with mercury in Pisces. and a pretty poor time to get that new computer set up.I shall remind my computer genius.
Since i am at that stage where my baby is dying (TOSHI) my computer and I am ready to bring another computer into the house as usual as an astrologer things in MY OWN life DO NOT HAPPEN as I would like... my last move was in the middle of an eclipse...NOT a good time to move. NOW I am in NEW computer land in a time of redoing.. so I have ordered one computer and probably it will NOT WORK and will reorder another one and all will be fine....
OF course the new computer has to be Cat friendsly since fred Astair (MY large Norwegen Forest Cat) and myself have welcomed a new rescue little lady named MINI into our realm.. It always pleases me so much to see what love, kindness and safety can do to any creature who has been mistreated, and reminds me that as humans we all carry wounds, and that only others kindness can assist us to be safe enough to trust and be open to healing...
Over the last 4 weeks i have watched a creature so mistreated and broken physically and mentally turn into a very open little lady who is now telling me to quit writing and tend to HER needs thank you so I shall close and write more and have it to you by Monday of next week... Love, light and joy to you all Carol
My Grandmother used to quote Mark Twain. "The world owes you nothing, it was here first" and she also used to say. WHO TOLD YOU IT WOULD BE FAIR CAROL?
It is what it is and we make it what we want it to be. PS...I attempt to use humor, optimism, joy, love in my writing and in doing so energetically assist you and MYSELF to look at things from a new point of view and in doing so create a NEW reality. Looking at old things in a NEW way is another way of saying HEALING:
And doing the same old thing, the same old way and expecting different outcome is another way of saying INSANITY: I hope that you enjoy what you read and pass it on, and please understand that from my point of view I am working with the information I am given and do this free information for you with love and a desire that it assists you on your path and to know that you are NOT alone ...

My WORDS for This mercury Retrograde…. I do not know about you, but for me. Besides the art of getting things done there is the art of leaving things UNDONE. The wisdom of life often is eliminating that which another can do and moving into the essentials we move closer to our own potential. AND now some things are just going to have to wait until that pesky mercury moves direct on March 7th…
This weekend a few people went on a GETTING STONED weekend. I am smiling because my daughter about wigged when she saw the invite. We (some people I know) about 25 of them, went to SQUIM Washington on Saturday and Sunday and went to rock shops, and then journeyed with Shaman and healers with our stones, and it was fun… And quite interesting and when we were all talking about WILD Dreams were told by some of the wise people there that… We are not only dealing with NOW in our dreams, but clearing past lives (if you believe in that) and maybe even future ones (I loved that) Less work is good: But this is surely supported by the sky and energies around us now.
So, use this next couple of weeks in a healing way as the Planet of Ideas moves backwards in the sign of Dreams, visions, and SOUL Journey (Pisces) and maybe reconnect to your guides, angels, or connect to some new ones. At the very LEAST, reconnect to your passion, your dreams and some fun …
I do believe we will pass this way again, but not in the same time, place, or with the same people. SO, truly you will never have THIS MOMENT AGAIN…So go for it and use it up, it can be juicy and sweet and Sexy and Passionate, and colorful, and intense and SO MUCH more… Make it what you want it to be… Who is stopping you? AND if you answered someone or something? Do they have you in chains? Locked away? Beating you? OR are you really the one who is holding the key to your chains?
I hope to see some of you tonight at VISION QUEST IN EVERETT? For an update, contact me if you want a mini update and CD $25 if you cannot come I will be happy to do the update and send the CD and update to you… Service with a smile..
Tuesday February 13, 2007 MERCURY RETROGRADE AT 8:38pm Well, since this planet has been in the Retrograde Shadow for quite a while, do not expect or fear anything major happening. The universe may actually SLOW down a bit for us which for me would be really welcome. Today with the moon v/c at 12:45am in the sign of Sagittarius until 3:42am when it entered Capricorn? I BET you had some doozie dreams? I surely have been off the chart this month and this was a wild night again.
At 3:42am when the moon enters Capricorn things begin to finally settle a bit and calm down and we should have a good day. The moon is about Emotions and Capricorn is not the most emotional sign, so get out, exercise and do something physical today if possible…..and Look for between 12:45am and 3:42 am to have some especially telling dreams. Take that notebook to bed and take notes or put a recorder by your bed
12:45am the Moon (emotions) touches Pluto (transformation) and moves v/c
3:42am the moon moves into Capricorn and we get an extra boost of earth and a bit of much needed grounding
2:47pm Venus the planet of love kisses up to mars which is action, you can figure this one out can’t you? The day before Valentines Day?? Make that call, send a card, show up with ONE FLOWER:
- yellow is friendship and joy,
- Pink sweet love,
- white pure love,
- purple spiritual love,
- red passionate love,
- green is healing,
- blue is truth, and look at what mixing some of these colors could bring to you or say to someone else?
8;38pm mercury the planet of ideas moves backwards (or apparently so, not really in actuality but it does go backwards in degrees and we all just call it backwards) I will send you an article if you want the whole long, boring explanation.
10:08pm the moon kisses up to that Mercury retrograde and we have a tremendously powerful night to reconsider, reconnect, replan, rethink, and redo whatever is undone
- Color today YELLOW FOR JOY
- Use amber to REmember your wise and ancient soul and connect to earth
- Oil of RC to clear the head, the sinus and lots of other good stuff…Blood pressure and so much more.
- Kiss for today, it is never too late to give yourself a GREAT childhood…How about starting RIGHT NOW?
PS Kiss is keep it simple sweetie, v/c is when the moon makes NO aspects before going into the next sign and can be a time when things DO NOT turn out as expected.
Wednesday February 14, 2007 HAPPY Valentines Day With the moon in Capricorn today we have a great chance to make some practical applications in our social lives. This day is a bit short on the warm fuzzies but has a great deal of SPIRIT DOWN TO earth energy. SO, I shall be at the Holistic Chamber of Commerce for lunch today at EAST WEST BOOKSTORE in Seattle doing just that… and Doing an Astrology class tonight in federal way.
I am such a believer in this day and believe that it is so needed in this world….. I think that a day set aside to tell people how special they are to you is wonderful. SO I WILL BEGIN BY telling you, thank you for reading this, for being in my life and enriching MY LIFE by your presence.
And who can you say the same to? AND how about us all being really grateful and stopping today to do a gratitude or 2? One of my clients who is a wonderful Shaman wrote me ”I to have been having very intense and rather disturbing dreams. Things are moving and shifting quickly on this dear planet and we all need to be doing our work NOW is what I keep getting. Time for "thinking about it" is over, perhaps that is my own personal kick in the pants! :-) I do think that we are all being called to raise our vibration now if we want to shift in a good way.” And I agree with her totally.
What can you do concrete today to make life better for someone else? THIS life we are in Is a circle you know and it does come around to you whatever you put out. So, let us all not worry today so much about getting or what we do not have...and instead give a bit and see what happens.
4:07am the planet of SURPRISES connects with The moon and we have a great opportunity to do all of the above which I suggested and manifest something PHYSICALLY into this world of a spiritual nature
6;21pm the moon touches Mars. Passions run high and also an opportunity to really do something important to yourself. A hard working night in some way I sense and am not sure why I am feeling this? (ME up writing?)
7:24pm the moon makes a wonderful aspect with VENUS which is love and we are set up for a great evening. There are lots of planets in PISCES now and what you see may not be what you get.
BUT in my life seldom has what I have thought I was seeing been real anyway…… so how about using the PISCES vision to create something wonderful and Lets FAKE IT UNTIL WE MAKE IT?
7:24m the moon moves v/c or times out until 8:34am tomorrow morning with a WONDERFUL aspect so this is a good v/c
- Color today red for passion and green for healing
- Use Larimer for your life path or citrine for joy and connection
- Oil of frankincense, or sage to clear energy or whatever you like
- Kiss for today… Remember today when it is gone, is gone forever and you cannot ever bring it back. Missed opportunities are the saddest things in the world. So, step up to the plate today and be counted in life...and forget the past...WORRYING about what COULD have been is the worst waster of time there is..
I know that some of you are not where you would like to be today in your life. AND I might add who of us is? BUT we can take ourselves to a better place anytime by thinking positive things, connecting to positive uplifting people, becoming more open to realizing that this is JUST A STEP: NOT the whole map or maybe even a piece of the puzzle but JUST A STEP and for right now it is the right step, and tomorrow we can take a different one can’t we?
What a wonderful world we do live in…WE HAVE CHOICES:::and we can think the cup is today ½ full with more coming tomorrow or today the cup is ½ empty and getting emptier…. Ophra says that if you are a woman in America you are one of the 100th millionth luckiest people in the world. And this LUCK is all about the choices we have…physically as well as mentally.
Thursday February 15, 2007 The DOORWAY begins for our next NEW MOON Today at 8:34am the moon moves into Aquarius and ideas become more original and we all have a greater capacity to step outside the box and look at options.
Aquarius is the 11th sign of the zodiac and an air sign and during this time you will find people less eager to commit but more open to options. So, look for a new way to do things and you are going to have a great day.
As we near the end of this months cycle, what needs to be tied up, dropped into the recycle bin, trash, or the mail and DONE with forever? We begin a new cycle on the 17th and so let’s use this great energy today to let go of whatever is holding us back.
- RELEASE is my oil choice for today
- I shall use sapphire or something blue for my own truth and maybe to be open to listening to someone else’s truth without being taken off my own course.
- Color today BLUE for clarity
- Kiss for today, begin to clean out what no longer works for you and make space
For something new. Holding on clogs your life doesn’t it?
Friday February 16, 2007 DARK OF THE MOON magical intent day (SEE DARK Of the moon or BALSMIC moon article on the website please)
Today with the moon in Aquarius and some quite nice astrological aspects confusion may still be strong but it feels more calm doesn’t it? 12:05pm JUPITER the planet of MORE gets into the act and since JUPITER IN Sagittarius is rapidly approaching PLUTO we have this magic transformational window every day until December, today’s window is strong and if you are breathing deeply and calmly it will be a good day
The key to today is to just stop… think… HOW important will this be in 100 years? 100 Months? Days? Weeks? And then decide whether you draw the sword for battle.
12:05pm the moon in Aquarius makes a great aspect with Jupiter and the tendency to overdo is strong …so lets overdo fun, how about it?
5:48pm the moon touches NEPTUNE, intuition, dreams and illusion…and it is a great time for meditation or prayer, or watching a great movie or a good book or talking about your dreams with someone you trust…. And AN INTERESTING COMMUTE if you are driving out there…so: watch for those in other drivers maybe doing all of the above.
7;57 pm. Saturn the planet of obligation and duty and what not makes an opposition to the moon and keeping out of others business is the best advice I would be able to give anyone tonight.
My Granny used to say. “UNSOLICITED advice is the most unappreciated thing in the world next to a tornado, and often they create the same result” I do not think she said Unsolicited, but that is easier to type…She probably said.. Shut up unless you are asked or you will create a tornado… Remember I grew up in Kansas Like Dorothy….…
- Which shall be the kiss for today.. GIVE ADVICE only if solicited from you…
- Color today pink for love
- Use rose quartz which is the stone about loving self Or amethyst which clears negativity and dispels illness and toxins
- Oil of Jasmine which does the same, or oregano which is one of the best oils to use on an infection or cut (PS you know I AM NOT A DOCTOR and you need to use common sense on this, right? Ask Sharon Brigance the big questions. These are just MY PERSONAL experiences..
WOW do I have new oil for you. This weekend I was going on an outing, overnight with 25 folks and sprang a full fledged sinus infection. My friend Sharon talked me into sniffing R C oil and would you believe it got rid of the headache, and began curing the infection within hours. NO ANTIBIODIC for me and another wonderful new oil..

Saturday February 17th, 2007 HAPPY NEW MOON at 8:14am here in Seattle New moon days are interesting energies as we switch from that outflow of energy and releasing things, (FULL MOON TIMES) and now hopefully we have let go of many of those emotions and what not? AND are ready to welcome an INFLOW of energy as now for the next 2 weeks the moon will grow larger as will our projects and plans.
5:06am the sun and Pluto create a happy aspect to allow you to see new ways and have new ideas of how to make life happen the way you want it to happen
8;01am More of the above with the Moon and Pluto
8:14am a NEW MOON when the moon and the SUN touch OR meet at the same degree in the sky….. and today that degree is 29 degrees of Aquarius. This is an interesting new moon chart for Seattle with LOTS of planets in the 12th house of karma, dreams and the house where we hold the past ….. SO I shall call this the KARMA CLEARING and new beginning moon.
NEW MOONS begin with an increase of energy for us all as the MOON now will begin to grow larger in the sky…New moons are a time of new beginnings, new directions and a time to write down goals. THE NEW MOON PHASE cannot actually be seen because the illuminated side of the moon is pointed away from earth. This is the time of the moon growing larger and larger each day and can be seen from earth about 2 days after the new moon. THIS stage is called the waxing stage or growth stage.
As the sun and moon touch today they go v/c or create a wonderfully magical opening until 10:30am when the moon then shifts gears and moves into MAGICAL intuitive Pisces and we amp up that wish making energy.
Aspects today indicate that by dreaming and desiring and wishing and hoping this will help us change and transform ourselves as well as others… aka Prayer or mediation …
IN Astrology There is something called SABIAN SYMBOLS which astrologers often look to to use in prediction for events and things which will happen over a certain time... THis new moon is 29 degrees of Aquarius. And in Duane Rudhyars Book an Astrological Mandalla it says “A butterfly emerging from a Chrysalis” This degree is about INITIATION and the activity needing to happen for us to participate in a higher realm of evolution… and that we are emerging from a stage of dormancy into being REAL HUMANS::: WOW, I will stay around for that one I think. INITIATION is the key to this stage and where this is in your astrology chart is opening that doorway for the next 2 weeks.. OR longer? Think about an initiation, it seems to me like this is an honoring, and gathering of your peers, or a opening into a new group or new way of being? How does this feel to you in your own life, are you ready?
- Since this is a powerful new moon day how about you wear the color YOU want? I shall pick Green for healing
- I will wear Peridot which to me is the stone of Opening the mind and the spirit
- Oil of Sage to help clear the past and clean the air OR whatever smell you like?
- Kiss for today….. how about you PRETEND that this is truly the first day of your life And be willing to forget past hurts, and angers and resentments and move forward fearless and as a child. Open and willing to receive as well as give?
HOW many of you have seen the movie the SECRET? Well, it is mainstreamed now and it is about believing and thinking and making good things happen. SO, this transformation and so many coming forth is really here.. MANY of the aspects this year will shift into BRINGING your inner life into your outer life.
What would it feel like for WORK to feel like CHURCH or a spiritual and holy connection? Your marriage, your family …and all of your life feel this way? I truly do believe this can happen when we shift our perspective of how we are feeling about what others are doing around us. IT does not mean they will change, but as we shift our opinions and our perceptions of what we think or FEEL, this will make their affect on us change..
Does this make sense? IF not, e mail me and I will send you a list of NLP books… YEP::: NLP is positive thinking and creating the life you want by believing that first It IS possible. EVERYTHING BEGINS with trust and belief…
I would ask all of you to honor yourselves this Valentines day. NOT to worry about others, what they say, think, do or do not do.... expectations create disappointments, but we can TRULY create a happy situation by releasing expectations as much as possible of others and giving ourselves the things we want and need. SO, buy yourself a flower this week, do something nice for yourself and realize this Mercury retrograde has some GREAT gifts for you if you will just
R E C O N S I D E R things in your life...... AND R E C O N N E C T to your joy and passion.
Thought for this week: EVERYTHING BEGINS with trust and belief… I KNOW…. That you can change your mind, your life and be who and what you choose……I know it because ….. I have and you can also…and in doing this you can help change the world…and…isn’t that what we need right now?
The tarot card I drew from the OSHO ZEN DECK was THE SOURCE, meaning that when we get into the center of ourselves, our creativity and our INNER KNOWING, we can accomplish anything we desire and then move even beyond that place… The card is a glowing circle of Yellow, gold and Orange showing the sun at the center ..
Sunday February 18th, Monday the 19th Lost in a haze as your astrologer has had a BUG, or maybe MANY BUGS attacking her all at the same time.
Feeling a bit better today so lets Summarize… Mercury is retrograde in Pisces and the boundaries are a bit hazy. On Sunday the moon in Pisces added to the Haze and as the SUN ENTERED PISCES we all got to go to the “WHAT THE ??? “ party which seems many of our lives right now? What is going on? Well, just sit back and wait a few minutes and it will change.
WELCOME TO THE CHINESE NEW YEAR ON THE 18th as we enter the year of the BOAR By nature, BOARS are peace-loving, trustful, honest, and sincere. People born in the year of the Boar will be lucky and successful in handling money, business and academic matters. They have a deep desire for knowledge and are generally well informed. Boars are the finishers; they are the ones who put the last necessary touches to a project. Boars are suited to be doctors, bankers, businessmen, scientists and entertainers.
Boar Years: 1911, 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007
So??? This means that all of us are going to have a GREAT $$ year and learn a lot..And finish up all those things which we began and did not get finished, right?
Monday the 19th The moon moved to Aries at 11am and many of you, like myself decided to take matters into their own hands and got something done this Presidents day. Dr and new meds as well as new herbs and holistic stuff for me.
I had to cancel Issaquah tonight because I am contagious…but will hopefully see you There next month? I am going to be out of town on the 3rd Tuesday so we are going for another night to be announced…
Tuesday the 20th of February 2007 GREAT ENERGY This Shrove Tuesday or Mardi Gras There are some great aspects in the sky today, things should move fast and easily and with the moon in Aries, even if we do not see the way, many of us are just going to go ahead T R U S T and go for it.
2:23pm a great aspect with JUPITER the planet of trust from that Moon in Aries encourages us to move forward
7:34pm Neptune which is intuition gives us additional insights in a non linear way
8:55pm Saturn gets into the act asking us how this all “FEELS” and encourages us to make or take the next step
- OIL OF thieves for me to fight off bugs and RC and RAVEN
- Color today blue for your own truth
- Moonstone for intuition
- Kiss for today, Listen to your inner voice and if it feels right, go for it
Wednesday February 21, 2007 Ash Wednesday & More charge ahead stuff So, Mercury is retrograde but we are all still being pushed by planets in the fiery and passionate FIRST SIGN OF the zodiac ARIES: Today the moon in Aries is joined at 12:22am by VENUS the planet of love taking off her gauzy and illusionary Pisces Garb and NOW putting on the ARIES energy. We will all be much more apt. to step out a bit more and feel a lot more courageous about not being able to quite see that next step. Aries is the sign which often is said to have the MOST Trust because it cannot conceive that there is not something to support it.
9:41am the moon moves /c after making a wonderful aspect with Pluto and we are further encouraged to find our truth
12:03pm the moon moves to Stable and secure Taurus and things slow down a bit as we are encouraged to look at what we need to build with this energy
5:3pm a great aspect between the moon and the sun encourages us all to think outside the box and maybe even do some really CREATIVE visualization.
Do you know how to do that? You sit quietly, breathe deeply, relax and see, sense, feel and KNOW what it is you want. GET it so clear in your mind that you can taste, smell, see and KNOW it can happen. AND then, you have created it… first in your mind, then in your life if you choose?
8:47pm that moon in Taurus makes a helpful aspect with Mercury as it moves backwards…encouraging us to learn from the past and asking (NO DEMANDING) that we let go of the emotions. Learn, review, and let go of the emotions ….the past exists only for the purpose of knowing our eternity (quote from Shawn Lock)
And I believe this totally. When we allow the past and our fears to control our now we are letting the past control our future. AND This mercury Rx. Is asking that we all shift and change our dynamics so that we can move forward as who we REALLY are, not who others think we WERE…… or even who we THINK we were… clarity is upon us if we are willing to let go of the hold of the past … meditating or thinking or worrying on what could have been done or should have been done only takes us away from the truth of the NOW:
- Color today white for purity of vision for your future
- Use oil of Release to let go of that past junk
- I shall use CITRINE for clarity and clearing (this is the only stone which automatically cleans and clears itself of negativity) and known as the merchant’s stone…get some today…
- Kiss for the rest of your life… yesterday is a memory, tomorrow is a vision, today is what will create that vision for tomorrow…by what you say, feel and think you create your future
Thursday will be up by tomorrow and it will be a MOON IN Taurus great day for us all.
Thursday February 22, 2007 SLOW GROWTH Is strong today The moon in Stable Taurus today would love for us to slow down and enjoy the view and at the same time we are pushed towards achievement and maybe even filled with a bit of a sense of urgency. What is that about? Well, there are planets now beginning to gather for the FIRE party… When planets move into FIRE signs we create a GO..see…do….energy..
At this moment we have a GRAND TRINE OF planets in FIRE in the sky. Pluto and Jupiter in Sagittarius….Venus in Aries… and Saturn and Transpluto in Leo moving backwards.
So, the sense of NOT Knowing (Pisces stuff) is pushed by the MUST DO stuff and the only way to navigate right now is to be ok with what you do not know, and have a strong connection to what you FEEL:
I am always harping that we can control feelings. IF I think of injustice, of pain, of suffering, I am going to feel anger, or sadness aren’t I? IF I think of the lovely sunset, my great friends, wonderful clients, my fuzzies, what AM I feeling different? SO, focusing on gratitude and good things can encourage the GOOD feelings… Today we build whatever we put attention to and isn’t that great? Well, it is if you are working the Happy and positive program?
11:31am Uranus the b ringer of changes mixes with the moon (emotions) assisting all of the above
8:45pm the sun (THE LIGHT shining now in Pisces the visionary sign of what COULD BE) touches mercury the planet of ideas going backwards helping us shift the future by thinking about the past differently
9:40pm the moon makes a rough aspect with Neptune (intuition) asking us to BELIEVE in order to create growth
10:39pm the same aspect with Saturn give you the added push to search within yourself to find your REAL desire and know it can happen if you BELIEVE:
- Color today purple for royalty & for connection to spirit
- Oil or incense of Patchouli to reestablish equilibrium while quieting emotions and energizing the mind
- Amber for all of the above OR agate
- Kiss think positive
Friday February 23, 2007 FIRST Quarter Moon time to look at new moon wishes ½ the way from the NEW Moon which was 2/17 to the next Full moon which will be March 2nd we have a quarter moon…It is now time to look at those plans made during the new moon and shift them according to what is happening around you now. Changes are made easily and gently today with a Strong sense that more options are now available.
11:47am we have a great aspect as the moon moves v/c or times out……mars the planet of action in the sign of Capricorn in involved in this time so we should be moving forward strongly over the next week.
11:47am moon v/c or VOID OF COURSE is a time when the moon makes NO aspects before going into the next astrological sign and it often is a time when things DO NOT COME out as we thought they would. THUS we use a bit of care with this time...during this time THE WORLD DOES NOT NEED TO stop, but like traffic, often it is best to stop, look both ways , make sure nobody is coming at you and then go, right?
2:42pm the moon moves to Gemini and minds open, and hearts lighten as the energy shifts more to mental play and options abound
8:05pm the moon wanting us to play and have some fun tussles with mercury going backwards. Care with words, thoughts and agreements as the check you write with your mouth tonight may not be one your fanny can cover tomorrow.
8:46pm a trine or aspect of ease with VENUS encourages us to more rash and impulsive action and that can be good or?
11;56pm the moon wanting connection meets up with the sun wanting spiritual And emotional commitment. Who wins? OF COURSE what you choose to do and think wins, but tonight is pulling us all in some very different directions and realizing that could keep you out of trouble couldn’t it?
- Color today Orange to attract success and passion
- Orange Carnelian for the same, or golden citrine
- Oil of Orange or eat one, to bring about joy, peace, and happiness, as it is a mood elevator and natural antidepressant all of the citruses are things we should have in our daily diet
- Kiss for today, slow down and make sure what you agree to is really what you want
Saturday February 24, 2007 BE open to the unexpected and think positive so it is a POSITIVE UNEXPECTED EVENT WOW… as the moon in the mutable Air sign of GEMINI asks us to dance lightly on the head of a pin, Uranus the bringer of change planet gets into the act with a bang.. at 3:28pm so slow down, look both ways and hurry and get that lotto ticket bought by 3:20pm at the latest… TODAY just could be the day for many of you to find what you desire most.
9:11pm the moon makes an opposition to Jupiter asking for trust, faith and belief. IF you did not win that 10 million today, then it is because you are to get the 20 million next time. We are asked to dream big tonight and know that it is coming.
- Color today Red for courage and good fortune
- Use Myrtle for coughs and to help fight colds and flu…RC and RAVEN are also good for this
- Black tourmaline to eliminate negativity and for protection
- Kiss for today is Be open for surprises of a GOOD kind…., look people in the eye, (WHEN that is comfortable for you and maybe your soul mate is your lotto today?)
Sunday February 25, 2007 another wild and open to adventure day is here The moon in Gemini works hard again today trying to connect you to others, to open your mind and heart to new beliefs and we have a great astrological day. SO… get out and enjoy it, meet someone new and BELIEVE in the positive so that is what you attract.
2:03am great dreams so how about reaching out and connecting with those on the other side, or even this side in dreamtime? OR asking questions of your guides, the answers are there, if you are willing to listen?
2:39am another aspect with Saturn saying to listen to your feelings to get answers in dreamtime
5:21pm the moon goes v/c after making a rough aspect asking you to shift gears and get a bit more serious about your life and your goals.
5:33pm Mars the Planet of ACTION enters the Wild and VISIONARY sign of Aquarius And we are even more encouraged to dare, to risk, and to have fun
7:48pm the moon slides peacefully into the watery realm of Cancer and asks us to reach inside, get connected to feelings and emotions and get answers from within
9:26pm a great aspect with mercury moving backwards in Pisces with that cancer moon should make this a great night for me to write and for you all to get connected to inner stuff if you are willing to sit down and take the time?
- Color today Pink for love and friendship
- Use rose quartz for the same
- Oil of rose or geranium for the same
- And Kiss for today??? Do some gratitude’s in order to bring more of those things to you…. Realizing that today has great energy for taking down walls in your mind and heart makes it a wonderful Sunday.
We are beginning to touch on the solar eclipse windows and I will get articles written on these this weekend and get them out to you. Meanwhile there is a bit on my website at http://www.carolbeau.com if you want to go there and read…
Monday February 26, 2007 Be open to new connections and care with contracts The moon in Cancer today wanting security, peace and safety is challenged by Venus in Aries wanting adventure at 7;42am… and further complicated as MERCURY BACKS out of emotionally and psychically connected Pisces into ELECTRIC Aquarius at 7pm tonight.
Mercury’s return to this mentally charged sign can over stimulate nervous systems. Wonderful ideas can come rushing in to us all now but over stimulation is strong with a shift from water to AIR: and Aquarius is the sign of the rebel, so watch those huge shifts right now please and make sure they are something you will want to live with when this is OVER after March 17th. OR really over after mercury again moves back into Pisces on March 18th. Which is an eclipse date …. Interesting month coming for us all and a WONDERFUL one as we work in the axis of Pisces (what was not thought possible becoming possible) and Virgo (the details it will take to make it possible)
10:03pm Uranus the bringer of change dips his magic wand into the mix of today asking if you can BELIEVE::: (you folks do know that when all these planets leave Pisces and we begin with the EARTH ENERGY, this fall it will be more work and less about beliefs, so lets use this while we have it available please….
PS the moon goes v/c at 10;03pm with this URANUS aspect and will remain v/c all day tomorrow creating an open palate on which you can create your own ideas and new shifts and changes if you wish
- Color today White for purity and protection and green for Money and healing
- Oil of Geranium which helps to release negative emotions
- OIL OF RELEASE HAS this and Ylang Ylang for relaxation and balance and brings self love: Lavandin antifungal and antiseptic and regenerates tissue: Sandalwood to stimulate the brains emotional center and releases melatonin for deep sleep, calm, meditation and supports nerves and circulation…and BLUE tansy to help overcome anger and negative emotions. SO this is why we all need this oil…I think….
- Pearls for love and light
- Kiss for today, Ideas challenge our beliefs, so stretch please…
CHANGE YOUR MIND.......regularly ...and don't believe everything you think.
Tuesday February 27, 2007 MOON v/c all day::: Meaning that with NO ASPECTS in the sky the Uranus (surprises and changes) aspect from 10pm last night rules the day. I see this as an open palate today for you to perhaps draw upon. OR a scrying mirror to look into to see what your own thoughts are bringing to you.
Since the moon is V/C in Cancer all day emotions are strong as well as psychic abilities and paying attention to feelings and intuition will give you a great deal of information BE YOUR OWN PSYCHIC TODAY AND listen please. NO ARGUING with the psychic:
- Color today whatever you choose and use the stone of choice also
- I will suggest oil of Myrrh and is one of the HIGHEST levels of sesquiterpenes a class of compounds that stimulate the hypothalamus, pituitary, and helps the control center for emotions and hormone releasing in the brain. I always think of this as spiritual oil and have it open here beside me as I write often.
- KISS FOR Today, it is never too late to change tomorrow by changing today
Aristophanes, 448 to 380 BC in Greece said “A wise person, even though all laws were abolished, would still lead the same life.
At 20 years of age, the will reigns, at 30 the wit, at 40 the judgment, at 50 the wisdom, At 60 the ability to bring it together, at 70 the knowledge of all that went before and what is now really important.
At 80 ceasing to think and ponder it and living it completely At 90 all of the above and more, and at 100? What do you think you would be experiencing at 100 years old?
WHat do you have in your life to look forward to? A Latte, a visit from a friend, a lunch, a trip, a shopping trip, a vacation, a auto, a new home, a new lover, a better marriage, a happier life?
I work hard and book out fun stuff and also emotions for myself. So, please Make sure to put out on your calendar MANY TREATS for yourself. WHEN WE do this , we tell ourselves that we DESERVE fun and treats and luxury and that in turn gets us more into GRATITUDE which is the energy which brings all good things to us. ps luxury for me is having my bills paid, a wonderful roof over my head and the best people in the world around me. FOR you it can be lots more....
BY concentrating on good things we attract them. I could write pages and pages of how my life has been the damsell tied to the train tracks with the train rushing down the track and I am saved at the last minute..
I KNOW I will be saved, I KNOW that i deserve a good life, and I know I am here for a reason...and thus I am here writing this. WHEN we begin to love ourselves and know we are worthy our whole life changes. I wish for you, the knowledge RIGHT NOW that you deserve all the most wonderful things in the world and the energy of gratitude to go forth from you to attract those things to you...... THINK OF THEM, feel, taste, and KNOW they are there and they will come to you... and of course, like you I struggle often with the old stories, and things i have been told about myself and negative self talk. And at this stage I think I am really overcoming most of it and the more I use it the stronger it becomes... as it will for you...
and if you want more information? GET THE MOVIE THE SECRET:: I , like Ophra never thought it was a secret, just thought it was the way it was... BUT now it is in a movie and millions are changing their lives by these simple things which i have been writing about forever and others have been living. THE SECRET is you deserve it all and KNOWING and sensing that you can have what you desire and you DESERVE the best shifts your whole world... and then you shift others worlds...and on and on and on...
Wednesday February 28, 2007 FIRE and passion are back, what are you doing with them? The moon moved from that V/C state into LEO at 3:29am this morning. And it feels like time to put a FULL TILT FORWARD into something which sparks our heart and mind. Mercury has backed into Aquarius giving us pause for thought…thoughts…and more thoughts…
Ideas are strong as well as the Rather strong CHOMPING at the BIT as we feel that shift forward from not only Mercury (ideas) but Mars (action) in Air (ideas). Both planets are now in Free thinking and forward moving Aquarius (FIXED AIR) and out of Mutable Water so the push to accomplish something becomes much more strong…..
4:01am Saturn the planet of accountability opposes Neptune which is intuition CONFUSED? IF so, then DO NOT push right now please. Today carries a feeling that we MUST get something done and it is just a feeling, NOT Reality so slow down please.
5:13am more clear thinking and an option to get a new view on something
7;11am Moon in Passionate Leo opposes Mars…SLOW DOWN and take your time During the am commute… this energy carries us through the day with even more “I MUST DO THIS NOW STUFF” YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO IT NOW: trust me….it will wait… or most of it anyway….so, make the judgment and wait if possible.
10;03pm all is well that ends well, if you did the HEALTHY SELF LOVE thing today and had some fun, laughed a bit and did not push or shove?
- Color today Pink for love of all things
- Rose quartz, for the same, or golden citrine for money and self confidence
- Oil of RELEASE TO let go of the old so we have space for the new to come to us
- KISS is keep it simple sweetie and for today and ALWAYS, REACH OUT A HAND TO ANOTHER AND HELP SOMEONE …
