One of the big things people are always complaining to me about is BEING STUCK: OR TRAPPED, or Feeling there is NO HOPE)
A friend/client Dawn sent this out and
I LOVED IT: …Driving through the
falling leaves and after some really wild dreams last night it occurred to
be.. OF all the people I have worked
with and all the things at the time which I did not understand. AND YET KEPT working with the people
concerned. LETTING go was the biggest
lesson for us all.
“””From Dawn, a
client/friend ”One interesting thing
about the sensation of being
trapped in a situation is that the feeling is personal, and therefore under our power. A person can
be shackled in a tiny prison cell, and
still be free. It comes down to focus.
Send your thoughts and emotions into something that’s a dead end and you feel it! (i.e., ‘I hate being stuck in this job’ as opposed to ‘I wonder what else I could do…’) You feel that inability to move, that lack of freedom. And the longer you focus on it, the bigger and more ‘real’ it gets.
Put another way, here’s a quote from one of my favorite authors, Richard Bach: Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they’re yours.”
The power that is irrevocably ours no matter what the circumstances is the power of focus, the power of thought. Hugs 🙂 – Dawn

SO I SHALL ASK US NOW, all of us to focus on what we
Desire and work towards that rather than adding energy into viewing constantly what we do not want. ON Facebook I attempt to do this, I am in reality land and do see things sometimes political I post which I feel deserve real review. AND NORMALLY figure you guys can watch news, read papers, tv, I phones, whatever…to get most of it. SO NOW we go with perhaps the most upside down October I have been involved with in … well, since the 60’s when my daily words were W T F ???? lol so….
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

We are now in ::: Balsamic Moon (45 – We have another word for this moon phase — Karma. This is the closing, the conclusion of the cycle during which you reap what you’ve sown. If you haven’t learned the lessons, taken the action called for in the first seven phases, you can’t move on. People born during this phase often have a mission, something bigger than themselves that they must carry out. This energy is greater than yourself. This time, the outcome of whatever’s going on is not yours to decide. You have already taken the steps that set up this outcome. It’s a time to release the past.

WELL, THE FORCE IS WITH US TODAY ISN’T IT? We are in dark of the moon magical energy 2 days before that 10/29 KNOCK your sox off NEW MOON:
Mark
Dodich has a great article on it as does Annie Ortlee wrote at the end of her
GREAT article
These are fated aspects (F.A.T.E.D), a part
of the tectonic shift we’re all undergoing this fall and winter, the lead-up to the Saturn-Pluto marriage on January 12th. Expect to find more
secrets being revealed, as Mercury gets ready to stop and turn
retrograde on October 31st .
Mark wrote New Moon, Oct 27 at 8:38 PM PDT, 5 degrees Scorpio
Four planets, and strategic planner asteroid Pallas-Athena are in emotionally intense Scorpio at the new moon. This is excellent for endurance and pushing through the challenges in life, but the same talent makes it difficult to release that which needs to go. Scorpio is a great detective and researcher, and it knows who if full of “B.S.” (malarkey).
Use this new moon to get in touch with your emotional inner depths. Although this is uncomfortable, there is help in healing, release and having those not-so-fun conversations. Uranus is exactly on the opposite side of the sky in earthy Taurus. Like at a full moon, oppositions give you great perspective, but you also feel pulled apart to later be re-integrated in a better way.
Uranus doesn’t give much choice, as he kicks you in the backside when it is time to go to a new place, be it literally or energetically. Taurus asks you to raise your values to a higher level. Scorpio knows it is time, but like a little kid throwing a temper tantrum, he drags his feet going where he ultimately needs to go.
A sacred Sabian Symbol from Dane Rudhyar’s “An Astrological Mandala” to meditate on is “A massive rocky shore resists the pounding of the sea.” Perhaps this means it is time to stand strong in your emotional being as the world goes through natural changes. Watch people in the news to see if they are behaving in an emotionally mature way, or throwing a temper tantrum, blaming everyone else and not taking responsibility for their own part.
Also make note that Mercury turns retrograde in Scorpio October 31-November 20, so it is time to rethink many aspects of your life, starting with your emotional needs and what needs to be released in order to get there. Be adaptable.
(BY MARK DODICH) I would suggest you read both these great astrologers to help you better understand what this energy is bringing to us all)****
SO today that moon in VIRGO at 6am moved v/c and timed out until 1:20pm pdt when the moon entered STRUGGLING Libra, trying to bring balance to a world which seems quite upside down doesn’t it (SEE my facebook picture please, lol)
The moon in Libra tries to keep to herself after having a bit of doubt that she can do it early am…then mercury in the retrograde shadown and Venus try to gently allow us all a bit of breathing space…. Normally this would be a peaceful day but we are still feeling reverberations of Mother Earth, mankind and the world in struggle with NOT letting go and thinking that everything needs MORE: from the fires, to floods, to war, to politics, watch what is happening
AND PLEASE AVOID DOING THE SAME::TODAY
Are you stopping and listening.
– Kiss for today, to thine own self be
– Color today PINK FOR LOVE of self
and honor of self
– Oil of Peace and calming, I used
some in my dryer on sheets and wow, the lovely energy which comes with this oil
is fantastic
– Moon Stone A very YIN and watery energy: By unblocking the
lymphatic system, it can heal and balance the stomach, pancreas, and pituitary
gland. It can reduce swelling and excess body fluid. Placed under the pillow
it will allow for a more peaceful sleep, and is often used as a cure for
insomnia, and used along with the amethyst. (I personally use this one with
GREAT CARE and really like the green or pink ones , but the milky or opaque
stones are the best for psychic work)
(I
wish you all a wonderful week and please know that though times seem strange,
as astrologers we believe that this is the time which many of us have come back
to this planet for. That this very
disruptive energy will help us align and recognize, though it may not seem
possible now…that we are ALL in this together and that the vision of Healing
the planet is Neptune (VISION) in Pisces
and Uranus (CHANGE) in Earthy Taurus and that the Pisces (we are one)
now need to come together with the reality manifesting energy of Taurus…it is
time to stop procrastinating and CREATE and move into a firmer footing with our
visions of the future.

Today that moon in Libra sits on top of mars, helping us to perhaps? PUT peaceful and friendly thoughts into action?? DARK OF MOON WISHING time and I am wishing
1:32pm PDT as the moon Squares or challenges Saturn the planet of do your work and get your act together, many of us will recognize that what needs to be done is a bit more than what can be done.
Look around and by 10:30pm PDT tonight as the poor Libra moon challenges Pluto, we recognize that perhaps peace is within and that is where we have to begin.. Without is a bit more Chaos than most of us want to see moving into that NEW MOON Tomorrow at 8:38pm PDT
– Kiss: Sometimes Chaos is the power which will help us move our Fannies But often it is LAUGHTER which works best DO SOMETHING FUN TODAY and tomorrow xoxo
– Color today orange for creativity
– 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
I know I have used this one before but it is so true And
bears repeating: “You cannot control the world outside,
but you can choose what you will bring into yourself. If you do
not see anything of value in your
life, begin by finding one thing of beauty every day until
it becomes a habit.” — Ron Rathbun

ANIMAL TOTEM and TAROT FOR THE NEXT WEEK OUR KISS FOR THE WEEK IS::: can you believe that you can Truly heal the past in order to live the future of your dreams ANIMAL TOTEM CHIPMUNK
Chipmunk asks or tells is it is time to now work with periods of just having fun. It is a curious totem and shares that innate curiosity with you. Check things out – investigate – and learn in a fun way. The appearance of Chipmunk is a sign that you are well protected and safe. Chipmunk can teach you how to read the voices of others. To know truth and lies through the sound, inflection and pitch their voices.
Trust what you hear in their voice rather than their actual words. Practice this until it becomes second nature with you – and always trust your feelings. If they sound wrong, investigate further before committing.
Chipmunk, like Squirrel, also shows you to store for a rainy day. Not to point of hoarding, but just so you have enough to fall back on. When you have a little extra cash, save it instead of spending it right away. If you don’t spend it on little stuff, you just might be able to save enough for something really great in the future.
********************************************************
Tarot card for the week is
|
The Chariot (Le Chariot) The Child of the Powers of the Waters; The Lord of the Triumph of Light Card Number: 7 Key Number: 18 Rulership: Cancer Hebrew Letter: Cheth Translation: Fenced or Enclosed Field Numerical Value: 12 |

deserved victory. A period of struggle ending in worldly success.
Self control, effort, perseverance. Working within the boundaries of
one’s life to build up a successful existence.

CELTIC TREE ENERGY IS:
- Ivy, the Survivor (Sept. 30 – Oct. 27) The Ivy Celtic tree sign is blessed with the ability to overcome all odds and can survive in any situation.People born under the energy of the Ivy are loyal, compassionate and have a sharp intellect. Life may be unfair to them at times, but they endure the troubles with soulful grace. They can be drawn to the spiritual world and their faith is deeply rooted. Ivy signs are charming, soft-spoken and have a good compatibility with the Oak and Ash signs.
- Reed, the Inquisitor (Oct. 28 – Nov. 24) The one that keeps secrets between the tree signs of the Celtic horoscope is the Reed. This sign can dig deep to find the real meaning of things and discover the truth. People born under this Celtic tree sign love a good story, gossip and scandals. This makes them perfect historians, journalists, detectives, and archaeologists. They have the ability to find the core of things and strip every layer of the story. However, they tend to be a bit manipulative at times, but still have a strong sense of truth and honor. Suited companions for this curious sign are other Reeds, Ash or Oak signs.

New Moon, Oct 27 at 8:38 PM PDT, 5 degrees Scorpio
New Moon (0 – 45 degrees in front of the sun) The energy of the new moon is birth and its metaphor is spring. It’s a good time to start new projects, begin relationships and plant gardens. You might find yourself feeling impulsive, and you have access to a dynamic burst of start-up juice. Those of you born during this time are at a SEED PLANTING PHASE this incarnation: WEAR Bright colored and energetic stones
Sunday October 27, 2019
We begin the day with the moon in Libra and at 1:22am the moon makes happy with the planet of believing JUPITER, making this 1:22am PDT until 7:30am pdt a GREAT WISHING, lighting candles and creating intent energy.
At 7:30am Mars in Libra challenges Saturn and the battle for doing what is needed over what is nice commences…..
At 1:29pm pdt the moon moves out of v/c and into SCORPIO to align itself with the sun at 8:38pm PDT: and at 8:58pm PDT the new moon energy DIRECTLY Opposes Uranus in Taurus, tuck yourself in early today…and make intentions for a better planet and that you let go of what no longer works for you gently and easily.
AND NO, new moons are bringing in times, NOT RELEASING, but this one is different, Uranus demands along with mars (action) Saturn (karma and structure) that we must look at changes and not fight them.
The stories I have heard this week have been overwhelming. My particular spirit energy has blinded me this week with eye shots and a need for surgery, so listening to spirit and working hard to turn off negative energy has been my task.
WHAT WAS YOUR TASK this last week? WE all have a theme right now, what is yours and what to you desire to plant with this new moon energy?
VENUS at 24 Scorpio and Mercury getting ready to retrograde at 26 Scorpio seem to give us some special powers of observation, pay attention to what you are feeling? Thinking? Can you tell the difference? IF not, recognize feelings oftentimes are based upon intuition, but 99% of the time NORMAL Folks feelings are based on ideas, fears, hopes, dreams. What energy are you hooking into right now?
Normally new moon days with no big moon in the sky, feel a bit like a blank slate. WELL trust me, lol NOT this one for sure.
In new moon Astrology the sun and moon together on new moons sets a blank slate or big stage for important happenings. TODAY with the sun and moon in almost DIRECT Opposition to URANUS the planet of change.. well, this does not speak of a peaceful next month.
Uranus in Taurus is much about our planet, our earth, but also our money, our security and changes happening now do not necessarily have to be bad… but they with the Scorpio Sun and moon are surely going to be tweaking your emotional buttons.
– Kiss Stop, look, listen and see and sense what it is that you can do to make the world a better place for others today, and that will roll back to you.
– Color today green for healing, Use the stone Aventurine for the same or green flourite
– Oil of Lemon or tangerine to cheer you
up Or peppermint Or chamomile to calm
you down, it is a busy day isn’t it

At 10:34am PDT that scorpio moon touches mercury and moves v/c until the moon enters Sagittarius at 2:58pm PDT
Planets active today are VENUS what we desire, and Mercury how we think, so expecting today to be a quiet day seems to not be working, lol
REMEMBER what you say lives long after you do in many cases, speak carefully worlds which you would not mind being repeated after you are gone as your memorial. And be nice if possible today
Moon in Sagittarius •Animal Guide: elk •Clan: thunderbird
•Plant: black spruce •Power Direction: West •Stone: topaz •
Color: deep blue •Motto: “I Perceive”
What one thing could you do to make the world a better place? Donate school books, find a city in real trouble and contact agencies in this city and see what they need? Donate $5 per month and if all 9,000 of you out there donated $5 per month to Chicago Illinois HEAD START Program…IT WOULD truly change Chicago wouldn’t it? OR where needs help… our world is so much closer together and any drop of help and love into the waters is going to affect the world I promise:
And I have always found when I argue with ME… I win, whichever ME I choose to listen to. I CAN do what I WANT to do and you can also
– Kiss for today, you deserve much more than you Think you do…be open to receiving messages of your own ability to change the world and maybe begin something and ask for help creating it?
– Color today blue for clarity of vision (WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?) Safety, lol. Well to get that we are going to have to move further afield than our neighborhood or family aren’t we?
– Aquamarine for the same and to speak clearly with truth
– Oil of frankincense to clear and clean your mind, or sage or the Oil Clarity to allow yourself to see your own power and ability to create changes which are so needed

Wednesday October 30
The moon in Fiery Sagittarius today seems to want us to speak our truth and feisty is the energy as Venus (what we desire) Neptune (intuition or confusion?) and Mars (action) all struggle to have it all today.
GO slow, listen to intuition and do not believe everything you think today please.
Energies are not easy right now, they are about Change and shifting perspective and knowing that There is more than we are seeing to all the issues In our lives.
– Color today purple for spirituality, and power of knowing you truly deserve that which you desire
– 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 and remember Making shifts in how you see things is
the answer now, and MAKE A LIST OF WHAT IS GOOD IN YOUR LIFE Please and about
others if possible? Hasn’t that always been the answer?::

Thursday October 31 ALL HALLOWS EVE: MERCURY RETROGRADE TODAY
All Saints Day incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain. The evening before was known as All Hallows Eve, and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween evolved into a day of activities like trick-or-treating, carving jack-o-lanterns, festive gatherings, donning costumes and eating treats HAPPY ALL HALLOWS EVE:
Day Of Year: October 31 every year
At 7:29am PDT the moon in Sagittarius touches down on Jupiter and again we have an opening to shift beliefs and work on being more positive? OR just creating from our desires and beliefs. SO TREAD carefully with what you think today as you might find yourself awakening tomorrow and believing it?
Moon V/C AT 7:29AM UNTIL THE MOON MOVES INTO CAPRICORN
7:38pm so this is a moon v/c day with some GOOD ASPECTS around faith and hope and creating a better inner world by your beliefs, OR NOT?
8:42am PDT Mercury moves retrograde in SCORPIO at 27 degrees backing up to to 12 Scorpio on 11/20/2019 when Mercury will move direct:
MERCURY retrograde is known for not being the greatest time to install new software, or buy electronic equipment. BUT with this 3rd mercury retrograde in 2019 in WATER SIGNS (Water is emotions and feelings and intuition you know?)**** WELL
(THIS IS FROM PANDORA
ASTROLOGY:
What does it mean?
Mercury in Scorpio can test you in the deepest regions of intimacy, whether the intimacy in question is emotional, sexual or financial. Emotional intimacy can be deepened by truth-telling and even more so by truth-hearing but beware of possibly treacherous waters ahead—if you ask for the truth from your partner, you’d better be ready for whatever they have to say. This transit can reveal fatal flaws in a relationship. Sexual intimacy can also deepen or die during this transit but if you come to the conversation with genuine love and compassion, ready and willing to really understand your partner, you’ll have set the tone for positive changes.
(go to Pandora astrology and learn more)*** for me this is 1st house of self backing into the 12th house of inner world and karma. Where is this for you?
KISS (keep it simple sweetie for today) I am so much More than I give myself credit for being and from this Moment onwards I am going to honor my wise and Ancient soul. Listen to instinct and recognize how BRAVE I am
– Color today Green for healing
– Oil of peace and calming or release
– I would choose
Amethyst to deflect and dissolve Blocks, and negativity today
