New Moon Eclipse

In terms of planning for this eventful lunar cycle, the word faith comes to mind. All that is sound will hold, and that which no longer serves our well-being may be released at this time. Have the courage to ask for what truly gives your life joy, and these eclipses will help you begin attaining it. This Spring marks my tenth year of reading professionally. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned in all of these years of watching the stars and planets move and interact with clients’ lives, it is the power of eclipses to clear paths and promote healthy change. The first eclipse falls on February 6th, with the new moon. Btw, that is also the day Louise Hay will be a guest on The Oprah Winfrey Show. I normally recommend taking stock of our lives at the dark moon in order to set clear intentions at the new moon. With this year’s first eclipse on hand to usher in this moon, reflection and clarity are of particular significance. Whether you start taking bold, decisive steps toward your goals on the 6th or simply affirm them to yourself and to the Universe, you will being doing so under very special influences and conditions. One of the best ways of determining if your intention is right for you is to ask yourself one simple question. Does this idea make my heart sing? Your body will give you the answer. Another aspect of your intention to consider with the sun and moon in aquarius is service to others. Does your goal benefit others? I’ve seen the Universe green light humanitarian efforts much faster than self-serving ones, which makes perfect metaphysical sense to me.

Once this pure and loving intention is given to the Universe, have faith that you and your endeavor will be fully supported, and listen for the Guidance that comes to you. The second eclipse at the full moon on the 20th may give your intention the grounding and direction it needs to manifest. The moon will be in virgo where saturn is, so look for very clear and concrete instructions from the Universe as to what steps to take next. To remind you, jupiter is still in capricorn where it will be until next January. So we have incredibly practical and reliable support on-hand. We may be asked to exercise our discipline (not always the fun thing to do). But if we do so, the rewards will be substantial. Then simply trust the infinite Wisdom of the Divine to make the path before you joyous and peaceful.

In terms of the wider world we live in, these insights have come to me. I believe that February will bring resolution to the writer’s strike. My sense it that it will also be another turbulent month for Wall Street, likely more so than January. Once past the storm, we’ll begin a slow, steady and very gradual recovery. We’re in a long period of economic corrections (saturn’s influence in my view). And while challenging, the changes made under these conditions will ultimately restore healthier ways of living and doing business. And in the meantime, new opportunities will be created for those adhering to and aligning with responsible practices. For example, people who have been priced out of over heated housing markets will now be able to own homes. Their loans, in contrast to ones made in the recent past, will be granted under stricter yet much wiser terms. While saturn is in virgo, investments and developments in innovative energy technologies can finally begin to relieve over dependence on foreign oil sources (thus providing greater global stability) and create much greener sources of energy. The tough love we may be forced to practice now and in the next year and a half, may well yield a much brighter tomorrow. So as February brings Super Tuesday and more primary elections to the United States, I would ask everyone to hold the intention for peace, healing and the highest and best good of our planet. Not much to ask for, right?

In closing I want to leave you with a few other notes. The video for peace that I recently made with students from N. Ireland is now on sale at iTunes. All proceeds from video sales are being donated to NICIE, who help parents establish integrated schools throughout the region. Just look it up in their music video section under the song title "Get Up" or the artist Awakening Queen Maebh. Peace for $2 - that's a bargain! In planetary news, venus (love ruler) moves into aquarius on the 17th, mercury goes direct on the 18th, the sun moves into pisces on the 19th and it will oppose saturn on the 24th. If none of that makes any sense to you, please consider doing one of the following: get a totally FREE chart at our website or have a reading with one of the very talented readers at our sites, 12Angel and 12Listen. In February we’re running a special every day of the month in celebration of 2, as in 2 eclipses, 2 hearts, 2 sites and 2 readers. In fact 2 readers will be on sale each day for this month for $2.12 per minute all day (or as long as their voices hold up!). My sale dates are the 4th and 19th with the psychic I love to flirt with the most, Keith, the 9th with one of most popular new readers DeMari, and the 29th with Drueann, my sister of Avalon. We’re so happy to work together on that day! Lastly, in announcements, another one of my friends is blooming. I love spotlighting others for this very reason, watching them grow, shine and help others with their work. Her name is Nicole and she’s launched her new website which is a virtual hub of wonderful metaphysical resources. Please visit her.



So there you have it, the mysteries of eclipses revealed, or at least my take on them and my interpretation of the bigger trends. Wishing all a very happy Valentine’s Day. For those of you curious as to what happened since we wrote abundance checks at the beginning of this moon, please see my previous blog entry. Along with follow up details to that experiment, in it I’ve also placed a ritual for creating more romantic love in your life that can be done on the 6th or 14th. This year’s Valentine’s Day has some very favorable aspects. So enjoy!

Love and light always,
Elizabeth
