Venus Retrograde: July 26 - Septeber 6th

In conjunction with Cafe Astrology.com

I did not write this post. I have borrowed it from Cafe Astrology. They are nice people and seem to know what they are doing with their Astrology. Venus is the planet that governs love. During a Venus Retrograde you may wonder where the love went?

A Venus Retrograde is something very important to note. You do not want to get married during a retrograde, begin a new relationship during this time, as you might find, as my son did that you break up almost every month. It could be a very rock road for you and I don't mean the ice cream. 

I was born during a Venus Retrograde AND a Mercury Retrograde. As a result I suffered from low self-esteem, had challenges feeling loved in my relationships as well as self love until my late 40's. For this reason, I now help others come to loving acceptance of themselves.

Overview

"Mercury Retrograde" has certainly become a buzzword - or buzz phrase - these days. The Venus Retrograde cycle is lesser known, and it occurs less frequently than Mercury Retrograde, but it is a significant time nevertheless.

What is Venus Retrograde? Occasionally, Venus appears to be moving backwards in the sky. "Appears" is the key word here, because, technically speaking, no planet actually moves backwards in their orbits around the Sun. In fact, they don't even slow down. Retrograde-station-direct cycles are essentially illusions that result from our point of view from Earth, simply because the Earth is also orbiting the Sun at a different speed than the other planets. Venus is Retrograde approximately 40-43 days every 18 months.

Venus stations and turns retrograde on July 25th in the sign of Virgo, entering Leo on July 31st, and continues to retrograde until September 6th.

Venus is Retrograde in Virgo from July 25-31, and in Leo from July 31-September 6.

Venus is retrograde from July 25th to September 6th, 2015. Venus's shadow period begins June 21st and ends October 9th. Note that the shadow period begins before Venus turns retrograde, when Venus first passes over the degree that Venus later returns to in retrograde motion. The shadow period ends when Venus again passes over the degree at which it first turned retrograde.

As the planet of love and values, Venus retrograde periods are timeswhen we re-assess what—and who—we value. It is a period that many astrologers consider inopportune for getting married or starting a new relationship. Major financial undertakings are not advised during this period either. Venus retrograde cycles are good times for creating budgets and financial plans, and for re-thinking our personal relationships. Taking final action in the areas of finance and love, however, is not advised until Venus turns direct again.

Because Venus rules beauty and aesthetics, Venus Retrograde is a less than ideal time for beautification processes (new hairdos, enhancements, purchasing a new wardrobe, cosmetic surgery, and so forth), renovations, re-decorating, and the like. Because Venus is associated with social events, parties may not go as planned.

On the subject of love, past lovers may re-appear and some relationships may end. With Venus retrograde in Leo much of its retrograde cycle, our needs for attention may be especially strong. We may question the romance factor in our current relationships. With Venus in Virgo for some of this retrograde cycle, the tendency to focus on flaws (and to criticize) may be strong.

Old friends and lovers may re-appear, perhaps complicating current relationships. We may be called upon to deal with relationship issues from the past during this Venus retrograde cycle. Events occur that seem fated or pre-destined. It can be a real challenge getting close to a lover during this period of time. Unorthodox, experimental, and non-intimate relationships may be favored.

Affection is difficult to express in a natural or spontaneous manner. We might find others are lacking in sincerity or genuineness in their expressions of social niceties. (We may be inclined to do the same!).

Some of the more negative associations of Venus in Leo may be particularly prominent and/or hard to take, and these include such things as egoism, buying affection, or haughtiness. Those who have Leo strong in their charts may be more introspective, distant, or hard to reach during this cycle. They may not be in as favorable light just for the time being.

Relationships that have been especially challenging may come to an end during this cycle. However, strong relationships will survive it, even if there are a few bumps and bruises along the way. This can be a good time for "eyes wide open" or experimental dating, although opinions and assessments may change at a later date. It is not a time when people recognize the need for another person to "complete" them. Some people may be questioning whether they are with partners who actually fulfill them.

We may, however, be especially in touch with our deeper, less obvious, and less superficial needs and wants. This makes it a good time for re-evaluating our relationship needs; but, again, major love decisions are best saved for after the cycle ends on September 6th, and better yet, beyond the shadow phase as well (after October 9th). Our perceptions may be skewed and we can come out of the retrograde cycle with regret if we have acted hastily, as the tendency to change our minds later is strong.

On the subject of money, finances, and possessions, do try to hold off on major purchases or financial decisions during this Venus retrograde cycle. For example, the purchase of a new house, car, or other big-ticket item could backfire in some manner later on. They may become money pits or cause problems for you; or you may change your mind later and regret your purchase.

There's nothing truly to fear about Venus retrograde, but it's always wise to take special care during this cycle. It's not the best period for entering into a new relationship, because our sensors when it comes to love are not up to par. However, it's not unheard of to begin a relationship under the influence of a retrograde Venus, and the relationship survives and/or thrives.

Venus rules our values, and when she is retrograde, we don't seem to be in touch with exactly what and who we value, or, some might say we are seeing things more or too clearly. After the retrograde cycle is over, we may look back and wonder what we were thinking. So, do what you can to avoid major decision making during Venus' retrograde cycle, but pay attention to your assessments to see if they last. A change of heart is possible later. And, the people we meet now may appear more fabulous than they turn out to be. It's also possible that some people we meet now may appear less attractive than they turn out to be! Whatever the case may be, try to hold off until October before making big decisions, particularly life-altering ones.

Still, we may not be as openly or obviously warm and affectionate during this cycle. It's hard to trust others just now, and, perhaps more so, it's difficult to trust our own instincts when it comes to judging others or our relationships.

We tend to suspect insincerity in others. People might appear to be more selfish, withdrawn, and self-protective. It's hard to make headway in a direct manner in our love relationships for the time being. If you are hoping to fix a relationship or if you are trying to schedule a reunion, it may not be the best time to do so.

When breakups do occur in the second half of a Venus retrograde cycle, I have noticed they are imperfect. They are not often clean breaks. Couples and friends may reunite later or if they stay broken up, they might often wonder if it was the right thing to do - something is often left hanging. Venus retrograde is a period for clearing the decks and dealing with the past so as to move forward fresh and re-energized, and this is especially appropriate in the first three weeks of the cycle. During the second half of the retrograde cycle, watch for impulsiveness.

Then there is a feeling of the inevitable during a Venus retrograde. What happened in the past, including past love affairs, can flood our consciousness now. Sometimes, a past lover reappears in his or her physical form.

Think back to what may have happened during the last few Venus retrograde cycles (December 21, 2013, to January 31, 2015; May 15th to June 27th, 2012; October 8, 2010, to November 18, 2010; March 6, 2009, to April 17th, 2009; July 27, 2007 to September 8, 2007; December 24th, 2005 to February 3rd, 2006; April through July 2004, September through December 2002, March through May 2001). Although each retrograde cycle is different, similar issues may arise. In fact, some of the issues we faced then may need to be dealt with now.

Note that the last time Venus was retrograde in the signs of Virgo and Leo was from July 27th to September 8th, 2007. It's very possible that we will deal with similar or even the same issues during this 2015 Venus retrograde cycle as we did during that cycle in 2007.

At the time that Venus forms an inferior conjunction with the Sun (August 15th), relationship issues are magnified. Fateful events can occur now. This is equivalent to a New Moon but marks the beginning of a new Venus cycle. We are symbolically in the dark during the retrograde, but starting fresh and re-energized from this date forward. There is impulsiveness and lack of preparation now. When Mercury forms a semi-square with retrograde Venus on August 28th, there can be a lot of conversation about relationships, especially past ones. If new light is shed on an old problem, it may not hold weight over the long term, or could ultimately frustrate us. When Venus aligns with Mars onAugust 31-September 1, we can be especially passionate, and temperamental. We can find people coming on strongly or aggressively particularly distasteful. This is not the time to make a scene!

Particularly around the days of Venus' stations on July 25th and September 6th, 2015, hold your tongue. If you are itching to argue with a lover, try to hold off. It is likely that you will have a change of heart once the station passes, and you can do a lot of damage in the meantime.

Note also that Venus is in the retrograde "zone" from June 21st to October 9th. From September 6th to October 9th, Venus continues to traverse the degrees she covered during her retrograde period. Although Venus officially turns direct on September 6th, issues are not expected to be entirely resolved until after October 9th.

Some people are more sensitive to Venus retrograde cycles than others. For example, I know of one woman, with no knowledge of these cycles, who broke up with partners in three Venus Retrograde cycles!

Venus-ruled Taurus and Libra natives may be particularly sensitive to the effects of Venus Retrograde. Also, people who have Taurus and/or Libra associated with love or financial areas of their chart tend to be more affected than others. This includes Aries Ascendant natives (because Libra is on the house of partnerships and, often, Taurus is on the cusp of their income house, the second) and Scorpio Ascendantnatives (because Taurus is on the cusp of their house of partnerships). Taurus or Libra on the fifth house of romance is another indicator (more frequently occurring with Capricorn Ascendant and Gemini Ascendant natives), and those people who have Venus in Taurus or Libra are also quite sensitive to the cycle.

Aries and Aries Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your fifth house of romance, pleasure, speculation, and children. Because the cycle directly affects your sector of romance and speculation, you should be especially wary of jumping into arguments with a lover and taking risks with gambling. You may feel you are on shaky ground in the romance department. You don't need to share all your feelings with a lover right now, and you shouldn't jump to conclusions if your lover needs a little space either. It can be hard to derive satisfaction from your romantic and creative activities for the time being. An old lover may resurface in your life, complicating matters. As well, Venus rules your partnership and income sectors, and both of these things may come up for review during this retrograde cycle.

Taurus and Taurus Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your fourth house of home and family. Relations with your family may be a little strained. You might want to wait until Venus is direct before you express your frustrations with family members! What you say now may be costly. Furthermore, if you take the time to think about things, your approach to dealing with these issues later is likely to be much more productive. The desire or need for warm relations with family members, or for support and a feeling of security, is especially strong but the path to satisfaction may be hard to find just now. This is a great time to think about how to improve your home, but not necessarily for going forward with projects. You are ruled by Venus, and you are likely to be more withdrawn than usual, which can be a source of concern for your lover. People from the past may resurface either physically or simply coming to the forefront of your mind. You may be dealing with past karma now. With Venus as your ruler, you are especially sensitive to all of the Venus Retrograde issues described above. Venus also rules your work and health sector, and the desire for satisfaction and warm relations on the job is likely strong now, but hard to get.

Gemini and Gemini Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your third house of communication, siblings, and neighbors. You may withdraw from chit-chatting during this period, and this might alienate a few people, especially siblings and perhaps neighbors. Conversely, you might find it hard to derive satisfaction from these people, or from learning situations in general. Communications may seem insincere. In fact, you may have a hard time getting your ideas across in a warm, genuine manner. You may be misreading body language as well. For some, conversations about love or about past relationships can figure strongly. Because Venus rules your romance sector, don't jump to conclusions if a lover is acting a little distant. Wait it out. Venus also rules your twelfth house, and your desires from love and relationship may be hard to figure out for the time being.

Cancer and Cancer Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your second house of money and values. As such, in addition to the general situations associated with Venus retrograde, hold on to your money. Take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, and avoid making any big purchases until September, or better, October. You might use this time to work on how you attract (or repel) the income you deserve. Relationships with friends and family may be a little strained, as these are Venus-ruled areas of your chart.

Leo and Leo Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle mostly occurs in your sign, affecting your first house of personal appearance and mannerisms. This cycle certainly affects the personal image you project to others. Others may misunderstand what you do and say, and misread your body language. Others may not be seeing you in the most favorable of light, and events may be such that you feel the need to rethink the way you present yourself. You may be coming across in a harsher, even militant manner without even realizing it. Try to keep things status quo with regards to your love life. Don't worry if a lover isn't quite "getting" you for the time being. Things will change once Venus turns direct. Also, take this time to review your instinctual responses to new things and the first impression your make on others in terms of how these things help or hinder you. Venus-ruled areas of your chart are career, authority figures, and communications. These may not satisfy as much as you'd like just now. Extra caution in these areas of life may be necessary now.

Virgo and Virgo Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your twelfth house of all that lies beneath the surface of things. People from the past may resurface either physically or they might simply come to the forefront of your mind. You may be dealing with past karma now. What you want from love--your desires--are very ambiguous and obscure during this cycle. Deal with your past so that you can put it behind you, but don't do it at the expense of your present. Venus rules your money and possessions sector, as well as your ninth house of adventure and discovery. Watch for impulsive spending. Take the time to review your finances. Try not to feel disillusioned with life in general - think about ways to improve your life experiences.

Libra and Libra Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your eleventh house of friendships, groups, and aspirations. Your friendships or associations with groups may be a little strained during this period--a time when you may withdraw and others might misinterpret your intentions, or when friends are distant. You may get the feeling that friends are either disinterested or insincere during this cycle. Venus rules your sign, suggesting that you could be distancing yourself, questioning whether others are truly good for you. Your eighth house of shared resources and intimacy is Venus-ruled as well, and you might find your intimate life leaves you wanting, and that it's hard to find emotional (and financial) support when you need it most.

Scorpio and Scorpio Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your solar tenth house of career and reputation. For the time being, the social aspect of relationships on the job may be compromised somewhat. Be as non-judgmental as you can with co-workers during this cycle. You might find that your professional reputation is not as favorable as it typically is, at least not from your point of view. You may not know how exactly you would like to come across, and this could be the reason for any confusion just now. Your partnership sector is ruled by Venus, and you could find some challenges relating to a spouse or close partner during this period. Past lovers may figure strongly in your life now. With Venus ruling your privacy sector, you could also be dealing with past actions or karma. It's time to redefine what (and possibly who) it is that you desire.

Sagittarius and Sagittarius Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your ninth house of faith and adventure. An argument over personal philosophies of life can get you into hot water, or you could be reassessing your faith, during this cycle. It may be that your larger, broader plans and visions don't satisfy you very much these days. This is a cycle during which you might redefine these visions. Friendships and working relationships are Venus-ruled in your chart, and special care should be exercised in these areas of life. Be patient if these matters fail to satisfy you for the time being.

Capricorn and Capricorn Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your eighth house of intimacy, shared resources, and personal transformation. Hold onto your money, work on a budget, and resist arguments with loved ones that revolve around intimacy and sexuality. A disagreement over joint finances can also get you into hot water. Hold back. What you say now can have annoying ramifications. You may find it hard to feel supported by others, and your intimate life may seem superficial or even strained. You might use this time to review past purchases or to handle financial matters such as taxes that you have put off (or you may be forced to do so). Venus-ruled areas of your chart are also affected--career, as well as relationships with lovers and children.

Aquarius and Aquarius Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your seventh house of one-to-one partnerships. Misunderstandings with your partner now can be troublesome. If you need to talk through problems, do your best to be as non-judgmental as possible, and don't over-react to what your partner has to say either. A close partner could be distant emotionally, or a partnership can appear stalled for the time being - something is up in the air. Watch also for less than warm relations with family members, and avoid purchases of new property just for now.

Pisces and Pisces Ascendant: This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs mostly in your sixth house of work, health, and habits. In addition to the general cautions outlined above, the social aspect of relationships on the job may be strained for the time being. Do your best not to let people get to you. The desire for warm relations on the job is strong, but the path to satisfaction hard to find. Schedule major beautification processes around this cycle if possible. There can be focus on healing and processing when it comes to health.  This retrograde cycle also affects the Venus-ruled sectors of your solar chart, which are your communications and intimacy sectors. You may be feeling unsupported emotionally and financially, and you may feel a little withdrawn when it comes to daily communications and light chit-chat.

5 Powerful Ways To Make 2015 Magical

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

Another year has come and gone. Looking back at the past year in retrospect, was 2014 all you wished for? Do you wonder how you can improve your happiness or love quotient? We could waste time and energy regretting all that we didn’t accomplish, or we could look forward with great anticipation. Welcome the opportunity to create using a powerful intention to be and do better than we were in 2014. Yes even you, can create a magical new year. 

Setting an INTENTION for each day can change the outcome of a 24 hour period. Think of what setting an intention for the whole year can do for your love life, business success and happiness. An intention is like a prayer over your creation. It is an overreaching energy which colors the outcome. Yes, an INTENTION helps you create magic. 

Here are some powerful ways to make 2015 exactly what you want it to be with magic (along with a few lessons and gifts thrown in). 

1. Look at 2014 with eyes of gratitude. Give thanks for all that you have received, gained and learned. When you are grateful for what you already have, you will create more wonderful events, situations and infinite possibilities for positive experiences and people to assist you in 2015. Gratitude is one of the easiest ways to bring magic into your world. Remember that there is no such thing as a mistake. We make choices and decisions. The wonderful gifts we receive are the lessons we learn along the way, about ourselves. 
2. Put your mind in what I call, NEUTRAL. Deepak Chopra refers to this place as "the GAP." It is where your thoughts cease and awareness lies. In this place of NEUTRAL your mind will be calm. Meditation is the single most important addition to your life. If you aren't meditating now, begin in 2015. It will calm your mind, help to heal your body, and bring more peace and calm into your life. I have a YOU TUBE video which you can do with me. I also teach meditation in my private sessions. There are other times that we automatically put our selves into a hypnotic trance, like when we are driving, peeling vegetables, or putting on makeup or shaving in front of a mirror. Emotions, memories and thoughts interfere with creation. Put your mind into the place of "no thought" or neutral. Immediately after meditation is the best time to create.
3. Envision your creation. See yourself with clarity, feel the excitement that you will have with your new love, home or successful business and release your vision out into the Universe. Let it go! Do not hang on, or pull it back to let The Universe know you have additions or changes. The Universe will bring you something far greater than you ever imagined if you just LET IT GO! Release it to The Universe.
4. Create from a place of contentment or joy. You are much more likely to get what you desire when you are in a place of fullness, rather than lack or need. When we are in a place of lack we feel empty or wanting. I know this does not make sense, but when you are feeling poor, you can't create wealth. You have to FEEL happy with what you have, to receive what you DESIRE. You have to give love to yourself and feel already loved to receive a loving relationship. If you keep saying, I am always alone, you will always be alone. Instead thank the Universe for the love in your life. Fill yourself with love first! From a place of feeling empty - you just create more lack.
5. Let The Universe handle the details. When you live in belief or certainty that things will work out as they should, everything will fall into place like magic. Know it is already done. Already taken care of. When you let go, you allow the details to take care of themselves.

My little secret:

I have manifested some amazing creations. When things seem to work out the best and the fastest is when I ask questions. Looking for win-win solutions for everyone also makes our manifestation occur in miraculous ways. The Universe loves win-win solutions. Use this phrase, "How can I possibly have ______________ so that everyone wins?"

Ask questions! Questions are a magical way to create what you desire. Often we unconsciously make statements about life, our relationships and situations. When we do so we create more of what we don’t want. For example, “Life is hard.” “I don’t have any money!” With our words we create that which we don’t want. Just like waving a magic wand over our life. The Universe always

works to make us right. If we think and say, “Life is so hard!” It will be. If you continue saying, “I don’t have the money” you won’t have money. The Universe will send us difficult life situations to prove us right. 

If instead, we ask, “How can my life be effortless and easy in 2015?” The Universe will bring us ease. Remember to ask, rather than make statements about your life. “How can my business and love life be successful, joyful and peaceful?” This is the fastest way to create success and ease with some magic. This really works! Once you ask the question, let go and know it is taken care of.

Wisdom for a fabulous and conscious 2015:

1. LIVE in the PRESENT. The past is gone. There is no getting it back. You can’t change what has happened. However, you can change your perspective about the events. Look for the silver lining. There is always something learned. Look for the lesson. Then say, ”Thank you!” Getting the lesson removes yourself from the role of victim. None of us are victims. If you consider yourself one, you are missing the whole point of life. Our soul purpose is to be enlightened and help others. Like Paul McCartney sang in the hit song, “Live and Let Live,” let the past be. Forgive yourself for what you have not done and let it go. Living in the present also means not focusing on what will happen tomorrow. Looking towards the future constantly takes you out of being present. The future will be here tomorrow. Which is soon enough. Breathe in deeply. Slowly exhale. Repeat three times. This will bring you into your body and into the present. Your breath can magically return you to the present.
2. Be the best YOU that you can be. This does not mean that you have to strive for perfection. As humans we are by definition, imperfect. However, we are already worthy, already enough and already lovable. We can be the best version of US we can be. We can love our loved ones and ourselves without holding back. We can allow ourselves to be more authentic and vulnerable. We can allow ourselves to be kinder, sweeter, more tender, and giving. Love is our core essence. Love and accept yourself completely, instead of judging yourself and others. Be generous to yourself. Nurture yourself. Step up your game. Instead of being complacent with your life, look for ways you can love yourself more, accept yourself more and expand your horizons to receive new experiences.
3. Re-think your life goals and write them down. The comedian Lily Tomlin, is famous for saying, “I always knew when I grew up I wanted to be somebody. Maybe I should have been more specific.”  The more specific we can be, the more able we are to achieve what we desire. The issue is our focus. We have to focus on our goals every day. Wake up each morning expecting miracles and wonderful events. Say prayers of gratitude for achieving your specific goals. For me, I thank God every day for my books being Best Sellers. They may not be yet, but I know they will be .....  Very soon! Giving thanks for what you already have, allows you to receive more. Maybe you have a bucket list of things you want to accomplish or do before you leave the planet. Focus on one of those bucket list items with excitement. Write it down and begin thanking the Universe for having it already. The last time I created a vision board with my goals on it, I accomplished those goals within one year. A vision board helps you bring your dreams into reality. Look at your vision board every day. Get excited about your goals and say “thank you!”

Life is what we make it. Our words, emotions and thoughts create it. Most of us have so many thoughts whirling around in our minds. These thoughts interfere with manifestation. We need crystal clear thinking to create.  Belief is what gives your desire the fuel to manifest it. Your excitement about your goals and desires is what gives your manifestation the wings. Make 2015 the best year in your life! Do your burning bowl ceremony and release what no longer serves you. Then write down what you want to create for 2015 on a piece of paper. Put it on your altar or in a sacred area of your home. Remember where you put it, so you can see the reality of your dreams at the end of 2015. 

You have the power and the ability to create a magical and wondrous year. You just have to focus with clarity and BELIEVE!

The end of the year is a great time to look back with acceptance over the events of the past 365 days.  Rather than regret our actions, choices, abilities or poor communication with loved ones, why not create a list of the things we have done well and what we would like to do better next year? Focusing positive energy on the past year will help you create a more positive and magical 2015.

People like Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer and Tony Robbins have touted the power of intention. Personally, I have manifested that which I have intended, easily. Most recently, I manifested a magical week-long stay in one of the most expensive and beautiful cities, Boulder, Colorado in the United States for FREE! Just by intending that it would be so. On the heels of this magical week, I spent a second week with my mother, brothers and their families - out of thin air!

Radioactive 2015?

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

2015 is on it's way. You can't stop it, you certainly can't slow it down. There are only fifteen more days until 2015 arrives. What is all the fuss about? The energy of 2015 has already been coming in, you have been experiencing it. Here is what to expect and why we all need to clean up our collective acts. A war has been raging silently (and not so silently) all around the world. This is where change happens, and it will, or we self destruct. 

What's the deal with the "Radioactive" title? My friends in Imagine Dragons will sing to you a little later on. Their video is wise, insightful and symbolic. This is where the rubber meets the road and you have to use your noggin. (Noggin is a colloquialism for intellect.)

2015 is like a fire hose of high vibrational LOVE energy. Many call it Ascension. It is a rising energy that causes us all to be bigger, more positive and consciously alive. This is when we recognize our true selves, our innate goodness. This energy has caused people to have difficulty focusing. Many are experiencing emotions long since repressed and hidden from view. 

This new energy is a higher vibration than any of us have experienced before. It will cause your patterns and self sabotage to be pushed up to the surface for all to see, but especially you. These past issues will be like hitting a brick wall. You will be forced to deal with these things in a profound way. If you have not dealt with issues from childhood, past relationships, addictions or other deep wounding, look out! You will no longer be able to ignore what is inside of you. 

Here are some of the things that won't cut it in 2015.

Waste

• Waste of food when people are going hungry
• Waste of time, on trivial things, meaningless e-mails, time on Social Media, where there is no REAL connection
• Wasting thoughts on things that don't matter or focusing on what you don't want in your life 
• Wasting time with those who don't accept, love or
  cherish you
• Wasting products, shampoos, multiple shower gels, lotions, creams, makeup, perfumes
• Buying clothes that sit in your closet unworn
• Having more vehicles than people in your family

Lying, Cheating, Stealing

• Lying, Cheating and Stealing is not in the vibration of love, therefore it will not be accepted
• When you begin to speak an untruth, you will do a voice correct, restating the truth. 
• For those who continue to try to lie, everyone will be able to tell when we are lying immediately our BS meters will go off
• In this higher energy, we will have to be responsible for our actions, deeds, thoughts - the universe will hold us accountable

Helping Others

• Our hearts will open and we will share with others
• We will lend helping hands to those in need
  
• We will share our talents, gifts and love with those who need assistance
• Those who have already embodied this love energy will teach others to get there

This is Where We All Cross The Finish Line Together!

Acceptance of Differences Because We Are All One

• Acceptance will be based on us all being from the same source
• It does not matter what country, religious background or beliefs we have
• I does not matter what color our skin is 
• It does not matter what language we speak
• It does not matter what sex we are
• It does not matter what our gender preference is
• No one is a mistake, we can't be, we have ALL been created by the ONE SOURCE ENERGY
• The energy of ONENESS will be everywhere, in every forest, stream, lake, mountain, village, city...

Love is The Only Answer

It has become so clear to me that we need to have open hearts for those around us who are suffering. We need to accept those who are in pain, not shun them. We need to love those who are crying - even when they push us away physically. We need to love them even more. When someone is resistant to accepting love and affection it is because they have a block or belief that they are not worthy of love. They feel unloved, no matter what we do. This will change in 2015. 

Emotions are coming up for many right now. So many people that did not see their issues are beginning to see them clearly. For those who have not done their inner work, seek someone to assist you. This shift has been happening for the past two years to prepare people gradually. In 2015 this energy is being amped up more than it ever has. Seek out those who have already come into their Divinity, or love themselves, they can help you along your path. 

Extreme Fatigue

You may be sleeping more than usual. You may have to drag yourself out of bed and long to go back all day long. You may want to do absolutely nothing. 

Lack Of Focus

You may feel scattered and have difficulty following through with tasks to completion. You may wander around wondering what you were just about to do. You may put something away in a safe place and not be able to find it.

You Need Nurturing 

Whatever it is that causes you to feel nurtured, do it. If it is a hot bath with Epsom salts, soak to your heart's content. If it is painting your fingernails, paint them. If it is sitting around with a bowl of chocolate covered almonds or chocolate watching funny movies, enjoy your movies. Be in the moment doing whatever brings you joy and causes you to feel nurtured. 

How Can You Help Yourself Navigate These Changes?

1. Pray. Ask for help. Be in FAITH. Help will arrive.
2. Ask questions, rather than making closed ended statements. "How can my transition into 2015 be easy and effortless?" When you ask questions, you will receive the answer. Help will arrive in different forms. It could be dreams at night that give you guidance or soothe you. It could be a vision, or just an overall feeling of being loved. 
3. Be grateful for what you have. 
   
4. Meditate. Sit in silence at least 20 - 40 minutes a day. Longer if you can. Do it every day. This is the one thing that will really help to give you peace, guidance and calm.
5. Rest. Get enough sleep. 
6. Eat lots of fruits, vegetables.
   
7. Refrain from sweets, carbohydrates like white bread, sugar, agave, artificial sweeteners as much as possible.
8. Don't read the newspaper or watch the news.
9. Stay away from anything that causes you to feel fear, which is why I recommend you don't watch the news.
10. Take cash out of the bank. Make sure you have enough for several weeks, or a full month if you can. Keep it in a safe place and write down where you left it.
11. Spend time with those who love you and that you love.
12. Do things that make your inner child happy. Sing, dance, play, toboggan in the snow, ice skate, play an instrument.

Imagine Dragons in my book is a Grammy winning, edgy, relatively new band. I listen to the message when I hear music. Their lyrics and videos speak very loudly. The message is profound. The little guys will win here. It is the meek that shall inherit the earth, not the ones stealing, lying, cheating or taking. What does meek mean? Loving, kind, accepting. Standing together, in unison, in love is what we need. We don't need to riot, loot or kill. That is not the way.

We will get there together. In unison, in love. I love you. To the Ukrainians who have been reading my posts - I love you. My roots are from your soil. My grandmother was born in the Ukraine. To those from other countries, thank you for coming all this way to read my posts. To the Canadians, I am coming back to Toronto, if I can find where I hid my passport at the end of this year. I will be in Toronto for New Years. The truth is that we are all part of the whole. We may have been born in one country and moved to another. Wherever we live becomes our new home. I love all of you who take the time to read what I write. I would love to hear what you want to hear about. 

ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE

I have been approached by I Heart Radio to do a radio show for them. This show has materialized out of thin air. I am grateful. Please join me in January for "ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE!" This will begin as an hour show moving to two hours with Questions and Answers about love, sex and relationships.
