Healing through feeling the pain, sing the blues.

Moon is in Pisces as of the morn of Jan 22.

Mellow out, feelings flow easily, life is a dream, foggy, and gauzily beautiful as seen from behind rose-coloured glasses.

We dream and drift back into the arms of spirit, feeling safe, secure, invisible, floating on a cloud.

We project out perfect gurus onto all kinds of swindlers, sex addicts, quick fix, abundance for everyone, abuse artists in search of God and the illusion of the glamour and riches of the material world.

We are searching for peace, for a piece, of wholeness, of safety once again. But even to say once again is romantic, idealistic, some people have never ever had any peace in their lives, or love, never been loved, never felt safe, never had enough to eat or a place to retreat to.  

Moon squares Saturn in Sagittarius. Like I said; caught between a dream and a hard place.

Moon conjuncts Neptune for bazinga! instant karma!

or maybe the zing of cupid’s bow- falling in love instantly.

Moon conjuncts Mars in PISCES-

Get your pain and your healing on.

It’s sexy/hurts to be spiritual, it’s sexy/hurts  to be an alcoholic,

enraged, a film buff, a tantric guru, working on an oil rig, an artist, in denial, charitable.

Good time to go to Re-hab under a Mercury Retrograde if you need.

Sun sextiles Saturn 

“Just keeping it real”, like those Native Americans say in the movies. 

Jan 23 continues in the soft pastel tones of sextiles to heavy hitters Pluto in Capricorn 

makes it easy to be hard-working and dreamy too.

Moon conjuncts Chiron in Pisces- 

The pain, oh the pain. All the New Age, be lighter, ascension folks, optimistic,the law of attraction and make the multi-level marketing guru richer.  Always ignore the nightly news and the dark side of things. I feel that is as much a dangerous form of denial same as any Christian or Muslim right-wing stance.

I’m not saying it isn’t great to be positive, it is. It works.  But we must also acknowledge our pain, our hurts, our losses, our weariness and feel that fully. Each one of us carries wounds, and unexpressed pains from our childhoods, as part of the human condition. We do appear to separate from spirit. It hurts. We also carry what I believe are past lives injuries, memories of our deaths, betrayals, unconscious hatred,and fears into this “present” life. 

I went to see a friend of mine, Jan Kudelka perform as Janis Joplin last night at a small 200 seat bar/theatre in Toronto. She was honoring what would have been Janice’s 72 birthday on Jan 19.

Jan is professional singer, actress, writer, performer and she had created a similar but more elaborate Janis performance twenty years ago. She has always channelled Janis, had dreams of her. Seen herself since she was  a child performing as her before she could possibly know who she was consciously. Prophetic dreams, Pisces stuff. And of course Janis’ alcohol and drug addictions and longing to be loved, and being a martyr are all Pisces themes.

My friend Jan is in her 60’s now. She literally resurrected, a MERCURY Retrograde word- Janis Joplin as if she had lived and was still singing at 72 years of age. Jan channelled those old blues songs, in such a way as to punctuate the profound hurt of each pain, each heart-wrenching primal scream of abandonment. It was a packed sold out show for two nights.  

I knew many of the people in the crowd, many of them very New Age types. I am feeling very open and tuned into spirits messages lately. What i knew was why everyone had come to see this performance was that they needed to touch that deep sorrow and pain.

Last week’s monstrosity was the Charlie Hebdo massacre in Paris, and another 2,000 people slaughtered in Nigeria, we hear about these things, we watch them on the news, or our phones. and then…

We just keep on keepin’ on truckin’ as they used to say in the 60’s.

Where does all the pain registration go to if we don’t feel it fully and sream it out, like Joplin did? Remember Primal Therapy, which started at Esselen in California I believe? John Lennon went through it. It’s totally disappeared. 

A female artist from Montreal had created an art piece at Nuit Blanche in Toronto last year. It was a screaming booth, because we have nowhere safe to let out our deep feeling of rage or frustration in a holistic way. I though that Idea was brilliant. It was one of the most  popular pieces.

So I felt the catharsis Jan channelled in the blues and we were all so moved by it. Gotta feel them blues in order to be happy. My friends’ life has also been very difficult,she was also singing /screaming her own pain. Her ex-husband had committed suicide.

So allow yourself to feel the pain. Even if it isn’t politically correct.

Pisces is tears. The ocean is the same as our tears. Spirit may also be full of tears too. How do we know? 

While up at the Grail Springs last week, That is the other thing that was coming up for me. How do we know if anything is real at all? What is real and what is the dream? Those are the essential 12th house/sign questions. Do you ask yourself these questions?

I was in the crowd watching Janice Live up close in this Video at a Rock Festival in Toronto in 1970.

At the crossroads, sing the blues, Astrology helpline.

I woke up thinking about this GRAND CARDINAL CROSS and helpful ways I can give you to cope.

Of course if you feel nailed to the 4 quarters of that cross  you are standing at the Crossroads.

The government shut down under the influence of this G.C.C.

You can’t stop change, that’s the name of the game now. You can’t stop a baby being pushed and hugged down the birth canal towards the light of a new Universe. And that’s all of us. It’s ongoing till 2015.

The 4 cardinal directions reminds me of the ancient cross of movement, the Swastika.

NOT THE NAZI SWASTIKA. Which is a 45 degree swastika,the proportions were fixed based on a 5 × 5 diagonal grid.

Probably most widely known as a HINDU Symbol, the swastika when facing right it is meant to invoke SHAKTI FEMALE sacred energy. That’s great.

The UNIVERSAL symbol of the Swastika represents the 10,000 things in China. In America , the Hopi and Navaho Indians called it the WHIRLING RAINBOW, Japan, Keltic, Judaism; every culture throughourt the world knew this symbol of  the 4 elements /directions in constant whirling motion and movement.

By Herb Roe “The Horned Serpent.” Cardinal Cross swastika

Thinking about the Crossroads made me think of the famous Blue Singer Robert Johnson. 

Did you ever listen to the original Mississippi Delta Blues? Hearing Robert Johnson play “CROSSROADS” was what  inspired Eric Clapton  to learn to play guitar in the first place.-see video below

It’s Ok to sing the Blues. 

Saturn also known as THE DEVIL, is at 10 degrees + Scorpio in quincunx to Uranus at 10 degrees + Retrograde.

Saturn always wants to hold on, in Scorpio the only thing to hold onto is death and change and Uranus in Aries is exacerbating that.

Resistance is futile, it only hurts if you try to stop the forces of change, That’s just an old ego trip my dears. Give it Up.!

MANY relationships will be tested starting on this LIBRA new moon.

It’s an appateaser for Mars entering into the Cardinal Cross spending almost 7 months in 2014 in Libra starting December 7 2013.

Sing the Blues if it if feels good.

Chiron in Pisces is trine to the SUN AND MOON and to JUPITER in CANCER so cry, cry, baby.  sing the blues. You’ll feel better.

At this New MOon an during the cardinal crisis which is ongoing,

Chiron in PIsces is a creative call to sing the blues in order to get to a place of balance.

It is a zeitgeist, it moves energy like a Swastika.

Curiously enough I check up Robert Johnson’s astrology chart born MAy 8 1911 in Hazelhurst CAmp MI.

He was a TAurus- rules the throat, singing, with Mercury- communicatiuon, SATURN conjunct his NORTH NODE at 10 degrees TAURUS. OMG the legend about the devil and him may be more of an Astrological allegory. Johnson had a very hard life and died relatively unknown and impoverished at only 27 years old. He had Jupiter at 8 degrees of SCORPIO Retrograde. CHiron at 6 degrees Pisces and MArs at 11 degrees. Born with a Venus Pluto conjunction in late GEMINI conjunct the Fixed Pole star, he also had Neptune which rules music, spiritual wanderers at 19 degrees Cancer.

This is how synchonicity works divinely. I merely follow the train of consciousness, Crossroads …Robert Johnson’s song, check out his natal chart. 

The awesome thing is CHIRON is conjunct RJ’s natal MArs, Jupiter is on his Natal Neptune in Cancer and SAturn,the North Node and Mercury are transitting over his   Natal Jupiter in Scorpio!!! THe SOUTH NODE is exactly, exactly conjunct to Robert’s Saturn and South Node.

I swear to God RJ is channelling this to me to tell you. There is no time, time is an illusion.

So sing the blues or whatever your soul wants to channel through you. Sounding helps move through stuck energy, sound the vowels.

I was at the Janis Joplin concert in Toronto in the video below OMG Janis was totally mind blowing.
