Pluto enters Capricorn: Take II (Nov 26)

We had a taste of it on January 25 and now it's here for good. Pluto, the energy of total transformation, deep and dire destruction - all for the soul-purpose (pun intended) of clearing away the decks to reveal our bare bones essence - leaves behind Sagittarius (destroying our beliefs, shoving new possibilities under our noses, rebirthing the airline industry (Sag rules travel), bringing down international barriers (Sag rules foreign connections) and continuing to unearth deep seeds of destruction within religion and other belief-oriented institutions...

...to enter Capricorn, the sign of Authority, Government, Structure and the 'System'. Where now?

I've said a lot on Pluto in Capricorn already, not least of all was the predicted bank closures I discussed in my earlier blog. Here is is again for you to digest so you know the likely manifestations (some of them) during this new major major astrological cycle.

Pluto in Capricorn: The Current Crumbling (written on Jan 25 2008)

I'll soon go into what it means for us all PERSONALLY but this is a beginners look at the anticipated collective experiences.

November 26 marks a watershed, a transition, a period of renewal. In all shapes, large or small, we're feeling the move into a new area, a testing of our newfound powers and a cleansing of our old traumas and dramas, painful at first, but from which comes deep, and LASTING healing.

Hurt to heal, and heal to help,

Your Life After Death Dealer,

2009 Early Bird Special Reading!

I've had some messages from you about the 2009 Early Bird Special, because I didn't mention it on the Blog here, so some of you missed it. It was on the front page and Current Specials page (the place to check out often for specials) but I know some of you have been knee-deep in personal transformations of late...so...I am extending this for one more week.

Voila - you can find out all about this special 2009 Reading and book in advance for the next week only. And then I'll be offering it at the usual rate in January 09. So you can still book your place in advance and save a bit in the process.

2009 Early Bird Special

Here's to the new adventures that await you in 2009 and I look forward to lookingahead for you and with you!

Neil

Get out and Find out! Sun enters Sagittarius (Nov 21)

Yea yea, so it's been dark recently. Psychic garbage filled out lives and we've been "taking out the trash" so to speak. All that stuff we lugged around from the past - our childhood, our past life, whatever, wherever. How has your 'emotional cleansing' going?

Good news: the Sun just moved into the sign of Sagittarius - the sign of expanding horizons, silver linings, fresh opportunities. it's time to open our minds to a new possibility, to go in search of a new potential, to seek out a truth, to visit a new place, to sample a new philosophy, to try to incorporate a new belief into our life.

It's time to turn on your Inner Gypsy and hit the road on a quest for...whatever you want. Who cares if you find it, this month. The Journey is everything, and you never know who or what you'll meet along the way.

Expect a foreign influence, someone with an accent, someone whose belief clashes with yours. Welcome it. Expand your cultural reference. See what code of conduct others live by and re-work your own. if in doubt, get out on an adventure.

If you're bored, you're not using the bounty available to us all right now - be willing to take a risk, gamble on something, and go out and find out for yourself. A book gets you so far, so does a movie, so does gossip or rumor...but it's time to find out for yourself.

Happy Travels!

Your Adventurous Astrological Ally,

Cutting Strings Attached: Full Moon in Taurus (Nov 12)

Here's a re post of what the Taurus Full Moon means for the next couple of weeks, along with some current themes on this particular one.

What do you value?

If you're not exactly sure, then look at what you:

* Spend money on
* Spend your time doing
* Get deeply involved in
* Do to earn money
* Surround yourself with
* Do with no compensation because you adore doing it
* Like having, enjoying, being

These things show us, (whether we agree with them or not) what we actually VALUE. And yes, they can be out of whack with what we 'claim' to value in life.

This Taurus Full Moon (Nov 12) opens a dialogue between our conscious and unconscious on what it is that we actually do value and if our values are aligned with our soul.

Where are you at materially? Is having little freeing you to pursue more "spiritual" goals? Is being "spiritual" going without financially? Is money "evil" or just another form of energy? Can you be rich spiritually and STILL have a comfy bank balance? What do you owe? Are you being honest or manipulating people out of their possessions?

Taurus is about money, but it goes deeper than that. It's about self-worth. The amount of comfort in your life RIGHT NOW is in direct proportion to how much comfort you feel able to handle. Maybe the things that bother you are in place (by you) to keep you from being too apathetic (if I have to struggle to survive, I can't be lazy..").
it's worth a thought.

Prosperity Consciousness: is happy with what it has, enjoys quality, knows that price tags don't mean a thing but will happily spend fully on what feels good. Knows that the Universe is limitless and that as fruit trees continue to shed apples, money going out will return, because they are using it to create and enjoy beauty and aren't withholding - from themselves OR others. Money is another form of energy - like hugs, or kisses. It's enjoyed, created to be enjoyed, allowed to come in and spent on continuing the cycle. It's not always about money though - it's just a sense of feeling rich no matter what, and money is a reflection of this. They are happy with whatever they have, they are full. They always are.

Poverty Consciousness: feels there is a limited supply so must hold on, save, scrimp and be "practical". Luxuries are a waste of money. Things have to be worked hard for. Others have more so in order to gain more, they have to withhold and protect what they have and give out little, in order to save it and make it grow. They worry it's all going to come to an end and they'll become homeless, or foodless so they live with the fear and therefore the need to safeguard and never FULLY enjoy what they have - as it may leave at any time. They feel lighter and cleaner having less, even though they may claim to want more.


Which one are you living in tune with most of the time? Since this forms the basis for most of your interaction with the material (Taurus) of this earth plane (and this lunar phase) it's time to get back in tune with what feels good to YOU.

At this Full Moon some good ideas:

Celebrate your soul's vehicle - your body
Eat well - cook a gourmet meal, bake bread, a cake, make muffins, make it a FEAST!
Save something - bargain hunt, sale shop, go for quality not quantity, but don't pay full price!
Count what you have - add up numbers, balance your checkbook, clear debts
Know what you have, and the decide what you want and need
HUG! Friends, family, strangers, anyone who'll let you! In return you'll be hugged. Give a massage or go get one.
Be sexual - enjoy everything about your body, and give up guilt
Value everything you do - after all it's an extension of you.
Do what makes you feel good
Sing - Taurus connects to the throat chakra and thyroid
Paint - Taurus is the sign of Art
Go Camping, hiking, for a walk in the park, to the beach, rock climbing, have a food or mud fight (Taurus is the sign of Nature)
Light scented candles, brew coffee, cuddle up under a blanket or with a teddy bear, burn incense, wear silk pajamas, listen to amazing music (Taurus is the sign of indulging the senses)

With this Full Moon opposing Mercury, the Sun and Mars in Scorpio we may find ourselves in power struggles with other peoples values, clashes borne of manipulation, insecurity, fear.
It's time to stop dwelling on destruction, but how can we with so many energies in the sign of Scorpio. A Transformation IS imminent in our lives - whether we have to carve out the "bad" bits, or whether we just have to withdraw into the safety of our OWN comfort zones for a time (our own values, our own sense of self-worth and self-esteem) in order for that process to resolve itself.

With each destruction comes the potential for a new birth and the renewal of nutrients and new fertile soil (like the aftermath of a volcano) in which to plant new seeds of comfort.

The Full Moon this month challenges Neptune, the Lord of Illusion, giving us access to answers if we can follow our intuition and not let escapism cloud our hearts - the desire to 'run away', 'opt out' or get further lost in the chaos, is enticing, seductive and very easy.

My advice - find solid grounding, know that emotions are temporary no matter how strong their apparent hold on you right now, and that we all BELONG here, on the Earth, at this time.

It's worth reminding ourselves of this simple fact. Say it to yourself a few times out loud now, and see how it feels:

I AM ENTITLED

You are. You deserve it. You're worth it.
And my last gem for you this week:

What you want, also wants you.


To some there will be a renewal (Scorpio) of priority and values (Taurus) as much that is material and financial (Taurus) is lost (Scorpio).

To others, we'll see the true meaning and value of those who leave our lives. Sometimes it takes a departure to truly show us what really matters.


Under this Full moon - things will end, release, resolve, you'll get the answer you've been waiting (whether it's what you want to hear, it's what you need to hear right now), things get thrown out, recycled, we make plans for new things, we allow space for new people, we move on from old habits, we get to clear out chests and clear the air.

Ahhh.....we finally get to wrap some stuff up. Ax my Scorpio friend reminded me just today, "You can't take it when you go". What you can take are the emotional imprints.

who would you be, and how would you be if you had all your possessions taken from you? And all the things you cling to for dear life. It's worth a thought. Who are you when you strip it all away and who/how do you want to be?

In Beauty and Comfort no matter what,
Neil

Tension! Saturn opposes Uranus

Feel like you're on a seesaw, being squeezed in a vice and then being stretched beyond your limits? Welcome to the current theme: restrictive Saturn faces off against free-spirited Uranus for a true series of personal and collective rebellions, revolutions, rule-reversals and the overthrowing of tyrants and the bullying of those speaking out for freedom and equal rights.

Bam! the aspect hit on Election Day here in the States. People polarized heavily between two energies "Change Change Change" (Uranus to the T) or Stability, Preservation and Old Values (Saturn is all about controlling change).

Prop 8 here in California, bans same-sex marriage, barring a huge portion of the state from expressing their love in a legal and binding union. Saturn (the rule-maker) thumbed its nose at those seeking the freedom of equal rights (Uranus). The opposition was expressed by a major series of rallies and Uranus-outrage against the System (Saturn). This is sure to be the beginning of a long and bitter fight between those who want things to stay the same (Saturn) and those who want true freedom via change (Uranus).

Souls born at this time, of course, will be imprinted with this vibration of push-pull, but how does it play out for all of us personally, you ask?

We want to break free yet how can we ditch it all and quit when we'd lose our security? We feel a need to fight those who rebel against us, who provoke us with their wily ways. We find our work needs to change and our career focus needs fresh air. We start wondering if our friends are keeping us stuck or if we're just expecting too much. We fear that the things we've established will no longer prove stable (the biggie!)
In relationships, one wants to run free whilst the other wants to work on it. Saturn loves work, Uranus loves to roam wild and free. Both sides are pitted against each other.
In financial matters, we risk stagnating and investing in old ideas, or turning the other way and throwing everything into sudden schemes and ideas that may sound good in theory but have no real backing.

In SOME area of your life (detailed by the houses Saturn and Uranus are hashing it out in) is some dispute or conflict between two opposing viewpoints or energies. You can't win when you take sides. And you can't expect others to conform to your viewpoint.

So it may be lonely, but we have to ride this one out - by sitting on the fence if need be, or bouncing on both sides and expecting a bumpy ride.

Change is here - no matter who is elected President. Whoever is in office in the US, will be a big player in the breaking down further of the system and its codes of conduct that never HAVE been for the Uranus people it claims to represent (the US Moon representing the public, is in Aquarius, ruled by Uranus).

We live in major times of unrest, but true change is never easy. Painful are the throes of birthing ourselves into a freer life. But with limitation comes liberation - we need rules to keep something in place.

See your life like this right now - a deadline or ultimatum may be thrust upon you, but it now gives you something to work with. A Timeline or a Plan. Whatever is happening is showing you were you NEED more structure or need to chill the hell out and where you NEED to breathe easier OR stop pushing against things.

Balance. It may be difficult since we're still in Scorpio Season, but it's coming. Not yet though. I'll let you know when the tides change but right now, right here, today we're in the most intense time, when the pendulum swings sharply, when we're booted off the seesaw, when what we held to so dearly suddenly has other plans. Are we free? Are we stuck? Really?

If it gets hard to breathe, you know where to find me.

In every great conflict and opposition lies the seeds of resolution. If you fight, if you resist, you fuel and feed the fires of pain. If you allow, and continue moving on a path that feels right to you, you can't help but change the scenery and thus, open up to new possibilities.

Embrace your life conflicts, they'll lead you to a better place. And that's really what we all want now.

Helping your Healing: Chiron Direct (Oct 25)

Since May 25, Chiron has been moving retrograde, triggering our old patterns, issues, soft-spots and sensitive areas, tol remind us of where we perceive ourselves to be less than whole. it's an illusion of course, but one area where we DO keep ourselves back by not letting ourselves 'heal' from trauma, is located where Chiron is found in our Astrological Birth Chart.

Where is yours?  Look for this symbol above (get your free chart from me at the Free Tools link at the site). 

Today, Chiron moves Direct again, and we get to take all we have learned about our soft-spots and actively do something about it. We get to show ourselves and others just WHERE we have grown up, and grown away from our past stresses, traumas and pain.

Pain stays with us - it should, as it carves channels into our life, like lines on a palm, and helps us to be the compassionate creators we are. We can then help others in the very same areas.

Chiron collectively is in Aquarius, showing us where society is not working as a whole. To be a true humanitarian (human-itarian) is to now focus on how we can move BEYOND our own hurts, and begin showing others the way to doing it to - by being a walking, talking example.

If you hurt, have been hurting - you have a choice now. To walk with it and continue on, and in doing so let it go, as part of your history and not part of your present, or to harbor ill feeling towards yourself and others for it happening. 

One leads to freedom and healing, the other leads to further reflections of the pain, in order that we re-live it until we get bored and then choose the other path of moving on. 

You're already whole. You're already healed. You're fine. 

It's time to allow that...

Your Healing Helper,

Neil

www.NewWorldAstrology.com

P.S My Chiron is conjunct Venus (love, partnership) and South Node (past lives, inherited gifts or traps) so I know all about it, so feel free to ask for help from this end when you need it. Together we can embrace your abilities as a Healer and Teacher within your own Life Story.

Planning an Event? Use Astrology to Launch!

Everything has a Chart.

You can determine the best date to launch a project, get married, go on a date, make a presentation and more.

Timing is everything.

We can use Astrology together to Chart the best times for the specific intention you have in mind, outlining the time-frames that coincide with the themes you'd like to 'get the ball rolling' under.

Each time we "birth" something, we create a Chart for that Moment. And that Chart's Moment, reveals a lot about the life-force, life-line and potentials of the entire endeavor.

You can find out more, or order an Event Planning Reading here.

I've helped numerous couples choose the best dates for their relationship according to what energies they want to bring into their union (exciting, action-packed partnerships, or steady, structured ones, peaceful home-oriented or gypsy-traveling themes, the choices are limitless).

So whether it's a business plan, a personal project or secret hope or wish, we can set it off and give it a great start - the rest of course is up to you, and how you navigate the unfolding cycles.

Together we can map out the cycles of your Launch Date down the line.

Freeing ourselves:: Sun in Scorpio, Venus in Sagittarius

Two bulletins for you: we just entered Scorpio Season today (the Sun now shines in the sign of Scorpio for an entire month) (happy Birthday Scorpios, be sure to check out the Scorpio links) bringing our awareness to those places where we need a deep transformation and to recycle old energies in preparation for something fresh and new. Clear up your space and your life, by letting go of stuff you've accumulated - feelings and things. 

We go within, become a little more withdrawn, and "power-up" for winter, by storing energy, taking out the trash, and protecting what we have so that it can strengthen and grow - and the parts of our lives that no longer work, we get to heal, or cast aside. All or nothing.

Venus just moved into Sagittarius recently also - and the themes within our relationships switch gears. No longer are we swimming in such deep, dark, and potentially dangerous waters (for our egos anyway that want anything but to sink) as Venus was in Scorpio (hands up how many of us have touched the depths and soared to the heights lately, in relationships?)...but now in Sagittarius relationships become:

* more an adventure as we see Life as a Journey and our partner as a Traveling Companion

* road trips, quests for a new goal, to find the truth or just to see the sights

* all about Honesty - sharing our real feelings and not worrying about the consequences

* more space-oriented - we're good together, but we're equally good doing our own thing

* about sharing information, learning and growing together as we both play Teacher & Student

* changeable - nothing is set in stone, we can try and do anything. It's all about risk-taking.

Whoever you're with, or want to be with, keep it fun, keep it light, and don't be afraid of a little straight-to-the-bull's-eye honesty. We can all handle it now. Enjoy learning - take someone to a class or bookstore, read up on your Astrological Compatibility (the new Cosmic Couple Report has already begun helping many couples to understand their soul contracts). Listen to your free audio clips on your signs. See what the other needs and wants.

Remember, that space is just as important in any connection. So is Adventure. If you've stopped learning, discovering and growing together, you'll part so that these 3 key things continue.

hit the horizon and take someone special along, even if it's just yourself! And since we're now in Scorpio Season, don't be afraid to linger in the shadows, face a fear and bring it back into the Light of awareness, so you regain your power.  Venturing into your Soul's Past (forgiving past pain and moving on is essential now - the new Karmic Insight and Past Life Report Package can aid you in untangling from stuff that's happened to you on your Soul's Journey).

Your Astral Adventurer,

Neil

My Poetry

For those of you interested, I added more poetry my other Blog, Poem From a Pisces.
Inspired by recent events, memories, thoughts, circumstances, people and places that all come together in my colorful mind, and spill out onto the paper in the stream of consciousness you'll find there.

I believe poetry is simply writing from the heart.

So you'll find a piece of my own there, and I hope it touches yours.
(I'm sure in such a relationship-oriented "theme" right now that we're all living under, everyone will relate in their own way). More to come as always...

Love,
Your Poetically-Partial Pisces,
Neil

Glasses or contact wearers: Using Pinholes Glasses instead!

Just a personal note for those of you who use contact lenses or prescription glasses.

As you may already know, I'm a firm believer in giving more 'natural' methods a shot.
I have been regularly getting more sun for my eyes, using some of the Bates method (you can research this) relaxing my vision, palming etc. And spending more time where I can without my contact lenses.

I currently have a pair of PINHOLE GLASSES which work really well. They immediately improve your vision, whether near of farsighted. I can now read the computer screen and far away without contacts. As well as the TV. it works the same in reverse. No prescription needed.

Pretty great stuff - as they allow you to wean yourself off your glasses and continually stronger prescriptions. Computer users: they soothe your eyes with prolonger computer use. Yay!

Give them a shot, you should be able to find a pair online for around $20 or less or at your local health store. They can help you to relax your eyes, strengthen those muscles again (the ones weakened by continued crutches like glasses or contacts) and see if you notice improvement also.
Armed with these and some regular eye exercises, it's worth the minor effort (15 mins a day!).

Just thought I'd pass it along to those who may want to try this approach to healing their eyes naturally. (plus its a major money saver).

Love,
Neil

New! Cosmic Couple Relationship Report

Available October 2008!

I'm excited to now offer the Cosmic Couple Astrology Report, one you won't find anywhere else.

If you're in a relationship, contract, relationship, union or partnership with someone, anyone, this Report is for you. Read on!

Congratulations on taking one of the most important Journeys of your Life: Opening up to intimacy, and all that it offers, closeness, a shared connection. May this Friendship, Relationship or Partnership bring you close together and ultimately, to a greater sense of intimacy with your own Spirit.


Linda Goodman saw Synastry as a very exciting tool in helping others to understand their relationships. If you have what she termed 'Soul-mate' connections, these too shall be highlighted, using some of Linda's own ideas and themes that she passed on to us. Soul-mates come in different guises, not just the usual romantic ones we see in movies. Look around you, it's very likely that someone in your life right now, is someone you have shared countless lives with before. And perhaps, there is still friction between you. Strong connections (for good or bad) are hard to break. Magnetic attraction is powerful.



I have compiled this Report personally, these aspects were the ones discovered for You and the special person you requested a compatibility Report with. Linda herself had a hand in this, with her special thoughts and wishes too, that I hope you enjoy. Relationships are never 50-50. They involve two people living 100% as themselves, but allowing for a new and third energy, a bridge between worlds as it were, when the two unite.

Enjoy this new Report, I recently ran one for me and a special 'other' and was blown away by things we'd personally chatted about only weeks ago. I love being surprised, even 15+ years into my Astrological Adventures. I hope you are too!

Get yours here...

Love,
Neil

It's really about YOU: Aries Full Moon (Oct 15)

For the next two weeks it's all about You. And should be. The Aries Full Moon period affords us a chance to work out if WE are fulfilled, if we look how we want to look, if we're on track with ourselves, if we're acting as we want to. If the vision we have of ourselves, really what we're seeing playing out in our individual lives?

**

The Full Moon now ands in the sign of Aries - war, aggression, assertiveness, action, initiation, inspiring us to pioneer old ground or to walk away from old lives and creating new beginnings out of the tattered remains of yesterdays soul-cleansing fires.

As the first sign of the zodiac wheel, Aries is the starter, the Fire Starter I guess you could say (since that's its element) but under a Full Moon things reach a completion, a culmination and we receive word from the Universe in the form of a progress report.

Full Moons remind us to 'let go' in areas where we're overdoing, overstriving and otherwise resisting the flow of cosmic energy in our lives. A new beginning is hard, when we're caught up in yesterday's shadows. So this week we look both forward (Aries) and backwards (Full Moon) separating old paths with new trails yet to be blazed.

We can help this along by following a few of these suggestions, tailor made for this particular lunar phase this week:

Work on Anger Management Issues - should anger ever BE managed? If not - all hell can break loose, or we end up in all-out war. But repressing it does us no good. Work out a way to meet your needs head-on and confront obstacles with courage, confidence and total honesty.

Let go of the need to be first - people push, people shove, they cut you off on roads and they are impatient and self-centered. This weekend, let them be. Save yourself a headache!

Give up selfishness - sometimes your needs can't be met by anyone else but you. That's life so accept it.

Go kickboxing, play squash/tennis - anything that's high energy and aggressive or fast.
Pump Iron - Aries loves raw energy and a show of macho. Push your limits just know when to quit.

Chill out - is it worth getting so heated over?

Burn something - in a safe environment, but try a Full Moon Fire Ritual - on Friday, burn things that symbolize what you're trying to move away from or let go of. Works wonders.

Quit banging your head against a brick wall. Find another way.

DO something - Aries Full Moons ask for energy and drive, committed to achieving a task. Knock down a wall, build something, go for a jog, work out, wrestle, buy a punchbag, scream, sing a rock song at karaoke, start 18 new projects and alternate between them all.

Burn off calories, then you won't be so easy to trigger. A relaxed body/mind is harder to agitate!

Cut hair, do face treatments - Full Moons are good times to cut hair (to grow back slower). Aries relates to the Head so prune crazy hair, give yourself a facial. Legend has it that cutting hair can release stagnant energy some cultures say resided in hair. Look back and notice your haircuts after a breakup, or breakdown? It released old energy. perhaps it's time for another makeover?!

In short - stop thinking, feeling and analyzing and wondering. Just Do It!

Full Moons pull liquids on the planet and within our bodies, making us more emotional and touchy. It'd be easy to get into a fight under Aries energy this week but it's a waste of good raw energy. Remember energy is directed where our conscious will is focused. Save it or squander it, the choice is ours.

Raw energy is sexy - that's why Mars, the ruling planet associated with Aries is about Drive and Desire. Conquering something becomes a theme this weekend - we NEED a fight, we NEED a challenge, we NEED something to win over, we NEED something to put ourselves against. Moons show emotional needs. Aries energy is driven and goal oriented and won't be denied!

We all turn into Stone Age men and women - back in the primal days of the Universal Fire. Separating ourselves out from the fold, showing how brave we are. These days, fights are taken to sports arenas or worse, into the fields of cities, town and villages, or into the home and family, the originator of all future 'fight-plans' and 'fight patterns'.

Find your 'beef', uncover the roots of your anger and dispute, and resolve to resolve it by the only means possible - facing it. What you do when you confront it is up to you but in the handling the issue, lies the possible resolution.

Remember, inactivity is also an action. Anger has a time and a place - and we shouldn't shy from it. It's not un-spiritual to get mad, says the Aries Full Moon. It's emotional and human. But it is raw untapped and untamed power from within that bubbles out in such moments, a spark from a much greater fire. A passionate seething cauldron of emotional power we can use to further our lives and create something greater, from the friction caused by seeing something that reflects less than we could be. That after all, is the basis of every fight - both within and without - seeing ourselves or another, being less than we (or they, in our perception) could be.

Relationship-wise, it's a time to balance what we want with what others need and desire. It's a see-saw this next two weeks. But remember, if you're not happy, no one else can be, because you're a major part of every contract, union, partnership, relationship, friendship. And you have a right to be feeling well and good.

Start with YOU, then see what changes once you change
your own point of view.

Any troubles, check the main site and sign up for a Reading and we'll work through it together!

Love,
Neil

Retrograde Error - Wrong Report (but you can have it!)

And in true Mercury Retrograde fashion I made an error - the Full Natal Report is NOT the special currently, it was last month, but you can still have it, since it was my boo-boo!

The current special is the Solar Return and Year Ahead Report for $50 (ends Oct 15).

You can find out more about your year ahead with two full reports that cover your birthday this year until your birthday 2009 or beyond. Your choice. The Reports will help you dive into a full 12 months and all its possibilities. Stay focused!

You can see what the entire package offers you here.

And, since I made an error, you can STILL pick up the Full Natal Report at the special rate (and yes you can tell your friends if you're sneaky!) if you use this link and enter $60. But it's only available here, as the Report is the usual price of $75 at the site.

Full Natal Report at the error price: http://www.newworldastrology.com/code.html
Code: Full Natal.

Mercury Madness!

Your Full Natal Report: Just $60

Just a reminder for those who newly joined the Blog (and for those who haven't perused the site lately) that the Full 80+ page in-depth Natal Report is currently on special, at $60! (normally $75).

It's the most popular report, compiled by me personally and already many of you have found it a rich treasure-trove of info into your inner world, secret psyche and a sort of 'dishing the dirt' on yourself (along with a host of things to pat yourself on the back for!). Really glad you're enjoying it. I am proud of the Full Natal Report and very happy to be able to offer it to you as a special right now.

Offer ends Oct 15 so order now before you forget (mercury is still retrograde!) You can read up on ALL the info you'll receive at the link above.

Enjoy!

Your Celestial Specialist,

REPOST: Things get Shady: Mars enters Scorpio (Oct 3/4)

How about a re-trograde re-post? (since it seems the layout was unreadable!)> Here you all go:


Feel the season shift?

The cycles of soul experience have moved into darker territory. With the onset of Halloween, and the decay of Nature, we enter a down cycle where things wrap up, crumble, fall, ready to become rich fertile nutrients to feed new future hopes and dreams. What goes up, must come down. What is born, must die. And what dies, continues on, like the seeds and leaves that fall from trees now, to feed the earth and the seeds that will emerge by the Aries Springtime.

How does this affect you and I?

Things get shady. Literally. The days darken. Our moods darken. We enter the Underworld - either with a brush with "Death" (literal or symbolic) or we wind up visiting some personal "Hades" in order the transform ourselves and move beyond our fears and inhibitions. Shadows grow around us, reminding us of our inherent human fragility, 'thin-skin' and the need for some form of withdrawal and protection.

Halloween comes, but before then, we get to strip away our mask. Some of us may be ready to "kill off" parts of ourselves and our lives. A relationship that no longer serves both people as individuals, a job that confines creativity, a city that no longer feels like home. Something will go, and Mars (our energetic focal point) in Scorpio (destroy to rebuild and rebirth) will aid in our quest to recycle, regrow, let go and prepare for a new life.

Whatever it is that's manifesting for you now - we face our Dark Sides, our 'criminal content' (internally) and society's more taboo aspects (externally). Our Shadow - the part of us we deny being (hateful, jealous, clingy, selfish etc) rises up for one more reminder that we ARE these things, or rather that we SOMETIMES can express these things, but that we are not our emotions, and we cannot be defined by even behavior or feeling. To be whole, we need to accept all levels of ourselves and our potential. Within us all lies the biggest illusion of all - the 'monster' of love-less lack.

Venture within. Go down to the depths. Crack the code. Use pain to find the Light again. Move from what ails you to what enables you to glow brighter. Use the Darkness to rest and realign yourself with your quiet inner voice. Accept darker moods. Investigate. Recuperate. Recycle. Reinvent.

And if in doubt, as always during a Scorpio Passage, Let It Go (for now)....

Your Year Ahead - a Personal Package

How's your Mercury Retro cycle going? Handling the glitches and the reversals? Finding a time out from it all? I hope so. Let me know how you're getting on!

Just wanted to check in and let you know you that now you can enjoy two of the greatest Reports together in this special Package, at any time of year, or at the start of your personal Birthday cycle.

Each Year at your Birthday you enter a new Solar Return cycle. This unique snapshot chart reveals the themes, events, people, situations and energies of the next 12 months until your next birthday.

I love this Package, I use mine each year to outline the energies for the road ahead. Since they begin at your birthday and end at your next birthday the following year, they stay with you and give you a detailed breakdown of your entire year.

When you order yours, you can choose your CURRENT one, to see where you're at since your birthday began. Or you can order ahead and save by getting one that starts at your NEXT birthday!

Solar Return & Year Ahead Report Package: Normally $60. Now $50.
Ends Oct 15. Order yours here and read more on what you'll get.


Enjoy!

Love,
Neil
