As I contemplate
Spring and New Beginnings we are experiencing a record cold February here in
the North East. Up until this month, our winter was bearable, but Groundhog Day
came with over a foot of snow and frigid artic weather. It’s getting harder to
believe that spring is coming even with our equinox fast approaching. Like many
of you, I have had enough of this weather and am ready for the feel of spring
to return!
You know what I’m
referring to, that smell of warmer weather, the feeling in the air that we all
experience including our animals? The energy shifts towards excitement and
expectation that things are about to change. Well, I’m ready for that… even
though it doesn’t feel that close right now, as we experience another double
digit day in minus degrees Celsius and cold winds! For you Fahrenheit people it
is approximately 12 degrees today, which has been our average this month and it
is much colder with wind chill!
What do our New
Beginnings look like this year? March brings with it our first set of eclipses
on the 20th which is also our equinox this year (the second eclipse is April
4th, which we will discuss in our next newsletter). Prior to the first eclipse,
March 17th we have our last of 7 Uranus square Pluto transits (that began in
2012). At least it is finally over, although the energy will likely stay with
us till the end of the month! Our first eclipse is a supermoon total solar
eclipse in Pisces at 29 degrees, this signifies a completion to this new
beginning new moon (the 29th degree is the last degree of a sign and it marks a
significant turning point. Turning points are important and critical to us
getting ahead and achieving our goals.) The eclipse is at 5:36am EDT and the
moon moves into Aries at 6:28 am EDT and the sun moves into Aries for our
equinox at 6:44 pm EDT.
So even if our
weather isn’t cooperating, the sun moving into Aries signifies the beginning of
a new cycle and Spring. What are your hopes for this new cycle? What are you
wanting to create? I have joined up with Eric Altman to offer a Support Group that will definitely Spring Us
forward on our spiritual evolution! Eric’s healing and meditations are one of
the most exceptional services I have had the pleasure to experience and
together we will assist you to shift into the heart and experience Love over
fear.
Now that we have
entered the Year of the Ram, Sheep or Goat (February 19th), the energies are
here to support us to heal and achieve financial independence. After this month
is finished, we are supported astrologically for the rest of the year to
achieve our goals! There may be a few bumps in our progress this summer when
Venus goes retrograde and we have a couple more Mercury Retrogrades to consider
but we won’t let that stop us! Have you thought about some goals for yourself
this year? I prefer to set my goals as qualities I want to achieve. I labeled
this year as Self Care year. So for me it is all about what will make me happy!
My health has been a priority for the past few years, and this year the focus
is on strengthening, accepting, loving where I am and making choices that will
honor and support me. This will include taking a cruise with my dear friend
Jean Adrienne next month; ensuring that I get massages and healings when I
require them and opening up to all possibilities that will allow me to have a
year full of Self Care.
I have come to
realize that it is the Choices that we make that are the most important. All
emotions are inner choices and being authentic about our choices is also extremely
important. We do have a choice as to how we want to feel at any point of the
day. We don’t have to be influenced by people or events, if we can recognize
that it is always a choice. Often we are in reaction mode because we aren’t
grounded and in the present moment. But when we are grounded, we have the
option to BE anyway we want. Being authentic, however, is very important
because it acknowledges acceptance of how you want to feel, while not
pretending to feel something you aren’t.
Ultimately, it
comes down to determining whether you want love or fear. And realizing how
often fear comes in to play, when we are not present. Unfortunately, a lot of
the decisions we make are made when we are not fully present in our body or our
heart. We often want a relationship because we don’t want to be alone; or we
want a million dollars because we fear lack. What we want to be aware of is our
motivation for change and new beginnings. Let our motivation be one of love.
Contemplate your motivation when you are not sure and find a way to be
positively influenced through Love instead of Fear. Make sure you are fully and
completely IN your body, all the way down to your toes (and out through the
souls of your feet into the earth) and connect in with your heart. Find a way
to feel the JOY in change and create MAGIC in your life!
