9/17/17 Venus was inconjunct to Chiron earlier today. We may feel a cosmic yearning to GO HOME. That feeling of loneliness or of being separated from source could be welling up. Chiron in PISCES is the wound we carry from the illusion of being separated from SOURCE. In fact, we are NOT.
The Pleiades by Elihu Vedder
Don’t run away from those feelings. If you pray and send out heartfelt longing to reunite with Primal Oneness of the Divine Feminine you will find it.
The Leo Moon is conjunct to the North Node right now @ 3:33 pm EDT @ 24 degrees LEO.
Stop and breathe fully into your heart. Feel your courage and will to love yourself and the world fully.
VENUS on the TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE DEGREE @ 27+ LEO
Venus rekindles the Total Solar Eclipse degree today. This is a very dramatic degree. Take heart and get in touch with your fiery LIONESS or LION in your SOLAR PLEXUS or 3rd chakra. Leo is ruled by the SUN and the SUN governs the 3rd chakra. Breathe into your HARA or “orrende“ as Native Americans call it your navel center. That is where your will connects you to the SUN and the Central SUN and the source of all LIGHT. Breathe through there. Take a warrior’s stance and breathe out three times fast and short saying Ha! Ha! Ha! Feel your power and connect it with your heart.
As Venus brings in the firepower tonight in PDT/tomorrow Sept 18 in EDT and GMT
Venus is also waltzing with innovative pioneering rebellious Uranus today in Grand Trine @ 27 degrees ARIES exact with the Galactic Center @ 27 degrees SAGITTARIUS and LILITH in SAGITTARIUS @ 23+ degrees.
Women and the Divine Feminine energy is on fire Ready to innovate to pioneer to break away from all old restricting forms of bondage. LILITH refuses to compromise. All women need to do this right now!
This is a breakthrough time. Passions will be high. DRAMA BIG TIME. Expect unexpected turns of events the next two days until Venus grounds us into practical VIRGO on the 19th on a NEW VIRGO DARK MOON.
Your love life and money issues may be chaotic. Values are changing to reconcile with those of the heart. The downside of Venus in LEO is too much ego vanity and selfishness.
This is also a terrorist bombing energy as well. Venus rules the markets- things will be chaotic.
Energies will change next week.
Enjoy the firepower of Venus in LEO. Wear your heart on your sleeve be big-hearted generous and bold. Dance the tango while you can.
The ECLIPSE Degree is in effect for 9 months. America is certainly being deluged now as the eclipse promised. Anytime any planet squares or opposes this degree will bring its impact back into our realities.
If you have planets or angles at 27 degrees LEO or opposite at 27 degrees AQUARIUS – America’s Moon is there in its birth chart making the elcipse doubly hard and intense for the American people The Moon symbolizes the people and water, of course,you will feel the effects more powerfully.
If you have planets in a square at 27 degrees SCORPIO or TAURUS you will feel the impact as well. 27 degrees TAURUS is the home of the Pleiades. A very spiritual wisdom source to spiritual seekers.
“The Pleiades” role then is to help seekers become consciously aware of Divine Knowledge and Wisdom which is why their etherical astral and mental bodies must be purified before being able to integrate with that spiritual system. The Pleiades represent a spiritual “station” where the Perfect Model within seekers is energized and comes alive on earth.”-
-Plotinus Greek Philosopher 204/5-270 CE
Tune into the higher wisdom available from Venus the Pleiades and Uranus.
Blessings to you.

MERCURY and PLUTO join today @ 17+ degrees CAPRICORN sign of worldly power.
The message is power. The Message is the PLUTOCRACY. The message is that sinister forces are at work on the world’s stage.
The deep dark SHADOWS of the unconscious are speaking out. It is important to remember that what has been repressed and hidden is coming out in the light of day so we can see it name it and transform it. In that sense Trump is working to clarify our “hearts of darkness.”
The archetypes of Trump Cards #1 The Magician and #13 DEATH unite today through the planets, Mercury and Pluto in the sign of Capricorn, The DEVIL. We can clearly see these archetypes playing out.
In this 2017= The Magician year, your thoughts and what you say carry greater power. Pluto rules secrets, invisibility, control, money, repression, garbage. Be very conscious of every thought you think. This is beyond the Law of Attraction. Your words have tremendous power. Your power is also in how you to choose to respond.
This is yet another aspect of the Cardinal Crosses from 2012-2015. You thought it was over, right? Mercury is “THE WORD,” what is being communicated. He is traditionally a trickster God. Pluto is the Lord of Death and Rebirth, power, control, secrets, money, ruthlessness, garbage and recycling.
Mercury is “THE WORD.” He is traditionally a trickster God. Pluto is the Lord of Death and Rebirth, power, control, secrets, money, ruthlessness, garbage and recycling.
Fake News, real news. Presidential edits, Federal judges blocking them. This is a communications breakdown battle. Who has control? With that alt-right Neo-Nazi Steve Bannon to the council in a reorganization of the NSC. He also said his chief-of-staff Reince Priebus would have a seat in the meetings. Trump had fired CIA officials. Dangerous.
Trump has banned Muslims from 7 countries entering the U.S. for 90 days which immediately resulted in thousands protesting at airports across the U.S. and Twitter lit up with #NoMuslimBan.
US District Judge Ann Donnelly’s ruling late on Saturday concerns dozens of people who were detained at US airports following Trump’s actions. People with green cards were detained, their cell phones removed and they were asked how they felt about Trump. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), had filed a class action lawsuit against the ban, hailed the temporary stay of execution as a victory.
Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau elegantly Tweeted:
“To those fleeing persecution, terror & war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith. Diversity is our strength #WelcomeToCanada.”
Many other countries are speaking out against this insanity. Trump has not banned the biggest offending Muslim country which is SAUDI ARABIA which is responsible for being involved in 9/11. The Saudi’s have the most repressive of all Muslim countries, for women.
You have an 11,000+ % chance of being shot by some American with a gun than by a Muslim Terrorist
Mars in ARIES will see conflicts and tempers rising daily. The Revolution has begun. Trump is a renegade anti-NWO person which is the only good thing i can see. I feel he is being used by higher powers to instigate what could become martial law in the U.S. A Civil War is in the offing.
Impeach Trump movements are being launched after only 1 week.

Aquarius Moon sextiles Saturn in Sagittarius, JUSTICE and freedom triumph for now
It’s a good time to be compassionate, to feel the connection we all have with one another beyond the man-made religions that we have created from a misguided illusion to separate ourselves from what is truly “God.” and each other. The only thing that is real is LOVE and compassion. Jesus preached that, and Buddha preached Loving kindness. Anything else but that is not a real spiritual religious anything but all ego and totally false. I wish there was a spiritual lie detector machine that you could put the words of any Bible, Koran, Torah,or book under and it would spiritually state if it were true or not. That’s a Saturn in Sagittarius wish for you.
MERCURY is that silvery, very toxic metal which cannot be contained but slithers into little balls and replicates. It is one of the main ingredients used in Alchemy, turning lead into Gold. Mercury was known as the God of thieves, shopkeepers and merchants, travelers and transporters of goods, and tricksters. He is commonly identified with the Greek HERMES, the fleet-footed messenger of the Gods. The words for Mercantile and merchant stem from Mercury’s name.
As Hermes in the Greek Tradition, his father was ZEUS the king of the Gods and his mother a PLEIADIAN Maia. That is very interesting as the Pleiades are considered to be the Star seeders of most indigenous people’s. The earliest center of his cult was probably Arcadia, where he was reputed to be born at Mt. Cyllene He was especially worshiped there as the god of fertility, and his images were of erect penises.
Hermes wears a broad-rimmed traveler’s hat, and winged sandalsmade “of imperishable gold which bore him swift as a breath of air over sea and earth. He carries a caduceus on which snakes and ribbons are entwined. This caduceus is mixed up with Asclepius’s which has double snakes and which signifies healing and is the same one modern Doctor’s use to signify their craft. He carries a money bag as he signifies good luck and riches.
Hermes’ holy-bird was the cock or rooster, a messenger bird, and we have just entered the year of the FIRE ROOSTER in Chinese tradition. The ram, Aries symbol is also considered one of Hermes’ favored pets. Wow this is totally synchronous as Mars has just entered Aries yesterday along with the crowing Fire Cock year.
To the Germans, he was called Woden. To the Egyptians, he was known as Thoth. The origin of the deity Hermes Trismegistus, or “Thrice-great Hermes.” The three-part title comes from this version of Hermes being the Greek writer of astrological texts, responsible for occult arts including alchemy, the Egyptian god who invented hieroglyphics and calendar-keeping, and also a judge of the souls of the deceased.
Hermes taught the Thriae, who were winged female spirits who live on Mount Parnassus, the art of prophesy. He was very helpful to a number of Gods and Goddesses in many different situations.
Mercury will square URANUS on the 31 and JUPITER on the 2nd.
Mercury and PLUTO are sextiled by CHIRON in PISCES
Stay clear minded. The planets are shaking us up really hard now. Chiron in Pisces is bringing compassion to the fore.
We need to keep examining our own unconscious feelings and drives. If we each understand that a separating aspect in our own unconscious is what is driving this we can help heal this split. It is the original split of matter and the Holy. It is all still an illusion but is also real. We will find our way to Oneness or destroy each other in this process.
This is all a big drama. Divide and conquer has always been the way. The drama will intensify as the North Node enters LEO on May 9th this year. The next 2.5 years will be filled with power plays and drama every day. Leo North Node helps us to speak from our hearts, to be loyal, and to protect the children and those we love. It is the sign of Kings and Queens, actors and roles and lion-hearted courage and pride. We will be drawing on strong leadership and creative self-expression. It is the flaming passion of the Love and the HEART chakra which is our highest goal to live from.
Stay centered my friends. I am sending you Blessings

In the dark night of the DARK Moon, Lilith is reminding us, under this newly minted Mercury Retrograde that it ain’t over till it’s over.
LILITH is at 15+ degrees of LIBRA exactly involved in the CARDINAL CROSS with Pluto and Uranus and VESTA in ARIES squaring SIRIUS, at 14+ degrees CANCER, the brightest star, which is where the U.S. SUN is. Sirius is the star of rebirth.
The power of the Dark Feminine at this Dark Moon is extremely powerful and will take you to places unknown, forgotten and unimagined in your soul, if you allow it.
Frank Von Stuck 1891 Eve/Lilith
I can feel the groundswell of women joining in circles, creating rituals, honoring themselves as Goddesses, as embodiments of Lilith. She who takes NO SHIT from no man. Remember she left Paradise so she could go create her own Paradise without that sexual bully Adam. He didn’t know the riddle of what women want….
We can see how Lilith as archetype is carried in the attacks in Europe by a bunch of drunken Muslim men in Germany on New Year’s Eve. It’s against all Muslim’s religion to drink alcohol. Islam, like Orthodox Judaism carries one of the heaviest projections onto Women as LILITH the seductress, she who is to blame for being innately Venusian and beautiful. All Patriarchal religions were organized around this principle. Because men feel insecure compared to women’s sexual energy, to womens’ psychic powers and to their abilities to embody the highest spiritual energies and values as givers of life. The Masculine collectively projected their own feelings of insecurity, inferiority and vulnerability onto women as harlots, succubus, incubus etc and made them the victims. It’s so obvious Psych 101.
All Patriarchal men, especially Muslim men need to be re-educated about the fact that women are not chattel, not slaves, not furniture, not there for their selfish pleasure/abuse for their own reckless uncontained animalistic unconscious, unspiritual, cut-off, sexual energy. This will be a huge issue in Europe. As I stated in my predictions years ago that Holland made the wisest decision by making all immigrants agree to certain beliefs about the liberal and secular nature of their Liberal society country and philosoph . If immigrants want to live in Holland, if they wanted to have The priviledge of living there. They must agree to: Number One: Equal rights for women.
The current speaking out against rapes in the BILL Cosby case is a big iceburg of this energy. Women will be speaking out more and more for the way they are blamed, victimized, used, abused, and disempowered everywhere in the world. Western women have the greatest advantages. They need to rise up and educate the rest of the world so that Lilith’s energy can be brought back into the GARDEN of the Psyche.
This LILITH CARDINAL NEW MOON
will see women take back the night, in LIBRA women demand equality. Lilith is the screech-owl and screech she will!
Mercury has just slipped back in to Capricorn from an appeteaser into Aquarius the water pourer. This is a time of remembering, reframing, rehabilitating, reconstituting.
There’s a lot of earth grounding back to basics at this New Moon:
Sun and Moon conjuncts PLUTO at the 15th and most prominent degree. Athena is conjunct to Mercury and I am sure we will be hearing about Greece and the Greek economy more in the news in the nest while. Mercury in Capricorn repeals legislation, so expect to see changes in various laws and agreements in corporate areas. The nasty TTP deal comes to mind.
There are two very karmic symbols at this New Moon.
VENUS AND SATURN are in conjunction in Sagittarius. Exact Jan 8 at 12 degrees Sagittarius, in effect until Jan 11.. This is a beautiful karmic symbol of love, solidarity and honesty. Love and maturity.
Venus and Saturn in Sagittarius is the pursuit of TRUTH and JUSTICE. Sagittarius speeds the energy of Saturn which is usually very heavy and leaden and takes time and requires patience.
We want the changes now.
This is great energy for magic for love and commitments. Saturn always tests, in this case Love.
Woman and corporations, women and worldly power, this bodes well for Hilary. Money markets {Venus rules the gelt} are being tested by Saturn. China’s economy and Canada’s are on the down turn. All that glitters is not just a new start-up.
Venus/Saturn can indicate difficulties for refugees, travellers, religious fanatics and new laws. Obama initiating at least a background check for those wishing to purchase a gun. An idea which is basically so obvious and stupid it makes me wonder if Americans really do have any common sense anymore.
JUPITER the planet of optimism and expansion, higher learning, philosophy. The planet of the Higher Master Teachers. The Judge, the beneficient, the optimist, is Conjunct to the NORTH NODE at 23 degrees VIRGO.This is a great blessing to the Sun and Moon as it is an earth Trine of great power.
The Transiting North Node is the collective’s highest goals. In VIRGO these are; the harvest, food, to be of services, humility, communities, grass roots, health, discipline, budgets, intelligence, discernment, hard work. It is a feminine earth sign ruled by Mercury.
Jupiter and North Node are opposite Chiron in Pisces conjunct to the South Node. There is a great healing happening.
This is a call to release old addictions to all things Pisces: religion, fantasies, glamour, drugs, gurus, projections on to STARS, living a vicarious life by watching reality shows. Letting go of whatever your addictions are: chocolate, sex, gambling, porn, yoga, work, the bible.
A time of huge liberation and deliberation. JUPITER rules both Sagittarius and Pisces.
So much karma! so what else is happening?
MARS is conjunct Juno Goddess of Feminine Genius in Scorpio in Trine to Neptune in Pisces.
Mars in is home sign brings X-ray vision, Read between the lines, Read between all lines. Use your Goddess given intuition. Change of the deepest sexual nature is in the air. Ultimately we are all ONe and have neither sex in Pisces. We are beyond, “gate gate” all that, as the Tibetans say. Pronounces gatay.
Dream a dream, imagine no difference in values between Men and women. What would that world look like?
THE PLEIADES are on the M.C. in this chart for New York City They are watching and guiding us.
MAKE RITUAL CEREMONY over the three days of the New Moon. 9-11th. 11:11.
Put out your intentions for this quarter until Spring.
retreat into a dark place, under the covers, in a cave, red tent, yurt. A closet even.Lilith has been in the closet for thousands of years.
At your alter or mesa, call in Venus and Saturn and their Sacred Marriage.
Bring in Venus’s metal-copper and Saturn’s which is Lead. Bring in symbols of Lilith, a screech-owl, a beautiful snake, the goddess in any form.
Saturn was originally the Great Mother before the Patriarchal overlay. Saturn is the physical world. We come from spirit through our mothers’ bodies. Mother is the ground of reality. Satan used to be Saturn’s other name. That is why The devil is a woman according to the Catholic Church and all Patriarchies. This is a symbol of Venus and her oldest emanation as the Great Mother reunited.
ON the Tree of Life Sephirot #2 is the High Priestess which is the Moon. Opposite to her is The EMPRESS # 3 which is attributed to Venus. This New Moon reminds me of this opposition, the two feminine emanations which balance the #1 Kether the Crown.
Make a commitment to love yourself unconditionally no matter how hard Saturn, the Patriarchy and the earth plane tests you. Remember you come from Source, unconditional love, cosmic consciousness. Men need to learn to love and trust Lilith, she is their own inner dark anima.
Imagine the Garden of Eden with Lilith and Adam. Originally they were equal. Under the Tree of Life see them greeting and being in awe of each other. They are innocent and whole. They are pure. They tenderly meet and seek out the other, Knowing that each has found their other half. They make love as equals. Adam delights in making Lilith reach endless eternities of pleasure. He benefits from her continuous orgasmic pleasure. For him to receive her love he needs to give to her. For her to receive his love she needs to give her pleasure back to him. In their sacred bond and union they replicate the as above so below. Everything in the Universe comes from this sacred lovemaking.
Vow to find the truth within yourself. let me know how the Dark Moon affects you.
I am feeling so called to set up a Goddess mystery school. I need more time and to grow back my 7 other arms. I need to be writing and finishing my book and setting all of this up.
The Sun is conjunct to the Pleiades, the flock of doves, the famous seven weeping sisters, the beginning of the ancient calendars at the critical 29 degrees+ Taurus was once the Spring Equinox zero point, many thousands of years ago.
According to Plotinus: These stars help seekers become consciously aware of Divine Knowledge and Wisdom, which is why their etheric, astral and mental bodies must be purified before being able to integrate with that spiritual realm.
They are considered to be the home of our ancestors according to many Native American legends. The Hopi, Cherokee and some other tribes, suggests their people came from the Pleiades. Don Alejandro Wandering Wolf of Guatemala, claims to have access to relics originally from the Pleiades containing secrets about reincarnation. Many people channel entities from these stars. The Japanese car Subaru means the Pleiades.
They are one of very few star signs mentioned in the Judeo-Christian Bible. Hinduism associates them with the enlightened beings who brought the sacred verses of the Vedas to humans. The Mayans are said to originate form this constellation as their Mayan name means “begetters.”
In esoteric astrology Djwhal Khul and Alice A. Bailey says that the Pleiades are one of three stellar configurations that animate our solar system through seven rays of energy.
The legends of these stars are not always happy or positive ones.The Persians who were great astrologers and mathematicians called the month of November when these stars rise Mordad, or “Angel of Death.”
We are saying good-be to a month of Taurus immersion and getting ready to bifurcate into Gemini May 21. A day to meditate on the beautiful 7 stars with Alcyone symbolizing all the Pleiades.
The Sun and Pleiades also meet up with Asteroid Astrea whose name means STAR-MAIDEN. She was a daughter of Zeus and Themis and she symbolizes Justice. She is an Immortal, and shewas one of the most well-respected and highly esteemed goddesses of the Greek and Roman world. Astrea is the goddess of justice.
She was the virgin goddess of Innocence and purity also called Dike. Don’t confuse her with Asteria the goddess of the stars.
Astraea, the celestial virgin, was the last of the immortals to live with humans during the Golden Age, of antiquity. According to Ovid, Astraea abandoned the earth during the Iron Age. Fleeing from the new wickedness of humanity, she ascended to heaven to become the Constellation Virgo. The nearby constellation Libra reflected her symbolic association with Dike who in Latin culture as Justitia is said to preside over the constellation.
In the Tarot the 8th card, Justice, shows the figure of Justitia, and can be considered related to the figure of Astraea on historical iconographic grounds.
Justicia by Raphael at the Vatican
According to legend, Astraea will one day come back to Earth, bringing with her the return of the utopian Golden Age of which she was the ambassador.
I thought this was all highly symbolic. The SUN brings Light, it is the Source, it is Golden conjunct to our sacred ancesters from the stars and Astrea a symbol of the return of the Golden Age. Focus on your own inner purity, justice, balance and Light.
Meditate with the STAR MAIDEN ask Astrea to come and guide you. I will be doing so.
Stay optimystic.
I am going to be teaching my “into the Mystic”workshop May 22-23 at the beautiful Grail Springs Spa this weekend. There is on eco-tabin left. http://www.grailsprings.com/Events-Tara-Greene

Seems like many moons ago since last Full Moon which was the Total Lunar Libra Eclipse Blood Moon on April 4th doesn’t it?
The Moon pulls the tides and our emotions and deepest unconscious primal feelings. All full moons intensify this. A SCORPIO FULL MOON = INTENSE Dark Full Moon.
This Annual Scorpio Full Moon is at 13+ degrees , @ 8:42 pm PDT/ 11:42 pm EDT/ May 4, 3:42 am GMT
Scorpio Full Moons activate instinctive, sexual and hormonal, energies. Scorpio, the 8th sign governs the sex organs, power, obsession, control, money, death, rebirth, recycling, depth psychology, secrets, mysteries, resources, gifts from the dead, metaphysics and tantric union.
Scorpio is ruled by Mars ,where it is debilitated by being in Taurus’s sign now. Scorpio is co-ruled by Pluto in Capricorn, newly Retrograde @ 15+ degrees Cardinal earth sign where it is more powerful.
The Moon at 13 degrees Scorpio is caught between the Fixed Stars Acrux and the Southern Scales. Caught between the Cross of Matter and the Scales of Justice seems like a totally apt description of where we are at right now.
Jupiter in LEO is tightly squaring the Sun and Moon with Juno, Goddess of Feminine genius at his side. Imagine a big Hollywood Producer with a beautiful babe who is super intelligent like Hedy Lammar the German born star who with musical composer George Antheil, invented a device during World War II that became the basis for Wi-Fi, GPS and certain cordless and wireless phones. Power beauty and brains is the axis of this Full Moon. Remember that.
Venus is at 25+ degrees Gemini, symbolizing our values about the duality of our natures, is in close opposition to the Galactic Center and conjunct to the NORTH STAR, POLARIS- the highest directions.
Chiron at 20 degrees Pisces is square to Venus in Gemini and they are symbolizing and reflecting the current plethora of dialogue about Bruce Jenner’s sex change and the wounds of those who have had to submerge, hide and been outcast for being sexually different. All of that energy is also being magnified at this Full Moon.
SCORPIO is all about the bass, depths, rebirth and transformation.
SCORPIO rules the darkest black hole, the grave, fear, intense emotions, orgasm, the darkest secret caves, the shadows of the psyche.
Scorpio is also symbolized by the great anaconda snake spirit guardian who eats the participant in an ayahuasca sacred plant medicine ceremony. Scorpio is an all-consuming, all-powerful, snake shedding soul initiation.
This Full Moon also celebrates one of the most important festivals in the Buddhist calendar, Wesak, celebrating the Buddha’s birth, enlightenment and death. We want to assimilate the transformation of the Buddha’s life as our own. Meditating on death, rot and decay is real and a metaphor of our own vulnerability and the fragility of life, and on the rot and decay on the world at large. This is a major part of Buddhist practice. Scorpio recycles refuse, garbage and decay into new energy.
Scorpio is also like the Great Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhist Vajrayogini, who, like Kali, wears a necklace of skulls and carries a shell of blood, and a knife,she is depicted as a naked 16 years old girl blazing sexual energy and obsessed with becoming enlightened. Vajrayogini clears all past karma, all Scorpio-like obsessions with suicide, depression, pain, self-loathing, darkness. You can call upon her to help you.
SCORPIO is associated with the Tarot Trump of DEATH #13 in the TAROT
In the Minor Cards the 6 of cups is the minor card associated with 13+ degrees of Scorpio.
In the COURT CARDS The Knight of Cups covers the 14th degree of Scorpio.
if you have a traditional Tarot deck then pull out these cards to act as Guides and Mascots for this meditation.
Colors: green-blue and red for Mars.
The MOON’s color is silver. Use silver candle stick holder or put dimes or quarters on the alter and wear silver jewelry.
Scorpio rules the sex organs, bladder and urinary tract,kidneys, pelvis, perineum, prostrate, uterus, sperm.
Sound ; G SHARP
Celtic TREE Mythology: Scorpio is associated with the willow tree. The Willow forms the wicker or wicca man who is sacrificed on the fire on Beltane May 1st.
SET UP YOUR SCORPIO FULL MOON MEDITATION RITUAL
If you are afraid of snakes and many people are, you will have to work through this exact fear now. Trust in this process, it may work miracles for you in so many ways. This can be very healing for women with menstrual issues.
Minerals for SCORPIO and Mars
Moldavite, Kunzite, Labradorite, malachite, Moonstones, Ruby, or garnets or red corral for Mars
Set up an alter or sacred meditation space. I would recommend water in bowls.
Incense:
Frankincense, Galangal and Pine Resin,myrhh, clove oil and violet.
Put on quiet Tibetan Buddhist monks chanting meditation music.
You can pre-record these instructions with pauses to listen to as you do the meditation.
Begin by smudging yourself first.
Light your candles. One for each direction. I always work EAST to SOUTH to WEST TO NORTH. Always move clockwise. Call in the four elements and the four direction into your sacred circle. Call in the four Archangels, Michael, Gabriel, Ariel, Raphael in the same order. Center yourself by breathing, sit or lie down. Lying down is very effective to connect with Scorpio energy. You can do this ritual outdoors. Best to do this with your eyes closed.
You can choose to work on a specific area that you wish to transform in your life, letting it go and shedding it like a skin in order to grow.
Meditate and begin to breathe, and sense your pelvic area and sexual organs. Breathe into them, into your root chakra whose colors is RED. Keep breathing naturally until you begin to feel the chakra heating up, to tingle and pulsate. If you don’t sense this it’s OK just keep breathing and using your intention. This is your own kundalini snake/sexual energy you are feeling.
Then send your breath down from the root chakra into the earth. Send your breath down past rocks, and crystals, deep down into the very bowels of Mother Earth to the Underworld. It is safe, dark, moist, hot and mysterious and full of power.
Feel the connection with the Kundalini serpent power of the earth. Ask the serpentine earth energy for help in transforming, understanding and letting go of any issue, aspect or situation in your life which is keeping you from growing. Wait, breathe, stay with whatever comes up;keep your intention clear. You may meet a guide, an animal, or something you have never imagined before. Stay calm in your breathing and allow the sensation, scene or action to play out. Even if nothing appears to be happening, its OK. something is going on which is invisible but still real. Your higher self knows this. Ask for a symbol, word, color or sign to bring back with you. Stay with it. Give thanks to the chthonic ancient power of the underworld for your gift. Then in your own time, bring your attention back up from the core of the earth to your own body and root chakra.
Breathe and slowly move your breath up from the base chakra up, one at a time, slowly opening and expanding each chakra with your breath from the root to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, until you get to the top the crown chakra. Breathe out of top of the crown chakra. Feel your central chakra channel expand and stay centered. At each breath feel the transformational power of the snake within your breath transforming you from your core. Stretch your body. Move your body like a snake. If you do yoga you can move into Cobra position.
Now see, sense and feel yourself shedding your skin, watch it peeling off you like a sunburn naturally and easily as you breathe. Slip out of your old skin of limiting beliefs and feel a brand new skin revealed. This is your rebirth. You have shed the old you.
From this newly transformed place think about and ask how you can use your newly vitalized reborn self wisely. Feel the freedom, the aliveness, the new you. Slither and dance a celebratory snake dance. The impulse may be to go out and connect with others but its best to stay within this new skin and let it settle on you.
Record whatever thoughts and feelings on your phone or on paper.
Listen to your instinctual snake wisdom,it is as ancient as the earth itself.
April 30 tonight its time to go romping in the woods. It’s Walpurgis night, the night before May 1st, Beltane.
The VEIL BETWEEN THE WORLD’S ARE THINNEST just like at Halloween, the energy is the same.We are at the opposite pole of Death, this is the celebration of sexuality and Life.
The Faery Queen goes out a riding in the woods tonight. It’s a magical bewitching Night.
This is a special night of SACRED SEXUAL LIASONS.
Beltane May 1st, is a traditional Fertility and Sacred Marriage Festival of the Sun to the Earth. It means “fire of Bel” or “bright fire” – the “bale-fire”. (English – bale; Anglo-Saxon bael; is the known as the bright and shinning one, a Celtic Sun God. Beli is the father, protector, and the husband of the Mother Goddess. The Bel fire is a sacred fire with healing and purifying powers. The ashes of the Beltane fires were smudged on faces and scattered in the fields. Household fires would be extinguished and re-lit with fresh fire from the Bel Fires.
THE MAY POLE/Phallic symbol
Dancing around the MAY POLE is a very ancient fertility celebration of the maiden Goddess and the horned god who would meet in the dark, make love as strangers, a young girl embodying the Goddess Divine and her young consort. He is Cernunos, PAN to the Greeks, the young virile, sexual, phallic God of fertility, the stag. Guys still have stag parties. We are celebrating the Positive Goddess worshipping Strong hunter the Green Man. The Catholic Church made him into the Horny Devil. In the Tarot he is #15 the Devil .
The ancient had no morals on life’s necessities. Children conceived this night were considered magical and to belong to the realm of the FAIRY or Fey. Couples would also take vows to be in relationships for a year and a day, sort of test driving a relationship to see if they are compatible.
It is considered unlucky to marry in MAY as this month is dedicated to the wedding of the GOD and the GODDESS alone.
Beltane is marked in the Heavens as the rising of the Pleiades star cluster just before sunrise on the morning horizon, winter (Samhain/Halloween) begins when the Pleiades rises at sunset. The Pleiades is a cluster of seven closely placed stars, the seven sisters, in the constellation of Taurus, they can be easily seen with the naked eye. The Pleiades were very important to many ancient cultures worldwide. Some Native American tribes say that their Ancestors were Star Beings who came from the Pleiades. Many psychics channeled the Pleiadians. I do too.
THE WHEEL OF TIME and our participation
The Ancients participated in Time’s unfolding, they believed that the Wheel of Time would not turn without human intervention. It is vitally important for us to reconnect and to honour these Ancient Nature Festivals, as we are so disconnected from the earth and the natural world. The modern world and all of its hi-tec tools disconnects us from Nature directly. We may feel more like orphans than children of the earth. Not so long ago when we lived off the land, grew our own and harvested our own food we needed to be directly in touch with Mother Nature herself to survive. That will always be true.
If we’re not in Right Relationship with Nature then woe be to those who feel her wrath- and we have- Hurricane Katrina, tsunami’s, earthquakes, mudslides, drought, flooding etc. There was an old margarine commercial “It’s not nice to fool with Mother Nature” We’ve been coerced into fooling with Mother Nature even more with dangerous GMO seeds from Monsanto.
Another important Beltane custom is bathing in dew gathered before dawn on Beltane Morn, your beauty will flourish throughout the year. Sprinkled with the dew insures you of health and happiness. Drinking from the well before dawn of Beltane is also good luck.
THE HORNED GOD, is a powerful symbol and needs to be honored as a harbinger of the New masculine.
“If a man had been created in
the horned God’s image
he would be free to be wild,
without being cruel,
angry without being violent,
sexual without being coercive
spiritual without being unsexed,
and truly able to love. “– Starhawk, The Spiral Dance
If you can’t manage a bonfire, simply lighting a small fire will do. Intention is everything, so light a small fire in your home safely, write down what it is you want to dispel from your life and burn it in the flames. Or you could do a Jack be nimble Jack be quick and jump over a candle on the floor, very carefully for luck. If you are in a partnership cleanse it of disharmony, rekindle your vows. Drink water empowered with Love by focusing on sending love to even a glass of water or a pitcher of water, as Dr, Emoto. Empower the water with love and pour it on yourself your plants, your garden your threshold, your loved ones. Festoon your doorknobs with flowers, or hang flowers outside your home.
DANCE
Dancing around a Maypole may not be easily done these days, so simply imagine the May Pole the ancient boys and girls with the colored ribbons in their hands interweaving in and out to form the spiral pattern around the pole. Enjoy, celebrate, send prayers to the Sun and the Mother Earth. Dance with the Faeries, invite them into your home and your heart.
Participating with the thousands of neo-pagans, witches and all other indigenous people s at this time helps boost the energy. Left over Food from May 1st eve should be left out for the fairies.
The 6th exact Uranus Pluto square of December 15 made headlines with Russian Ruble roulette as the currency collapsed against the U.S. dollar. Uranus symbolizes unexpected chaos, new cycles. Pluto symbolizes death, wealth, power. The Rouble has lost 25% of its value in the past three weeks and is now as low as it was in 1998, when Russia defaulted on its debt. Russian leaders and banks went into an emergency meeting and raised interest rates from 10 to 17%. World oil prices have slumped causing the recent crash, plus Russia is under tough sanctions from the U.S. Is Russia teetering on economic and political collapse?
U.S. Congress passed a bill which sets out legislation which authorizes – but does not legally require President Obama to provide lethal and non-lethal military aid to Ukraine, including anti-tank weapons, ammunition and troop-operated surveillance drones. Obama must decide whether to sign this bill or not.
Mr. Putin, who is the worlds richest man from oil and tyranny is in big trouble. With a Capital C that rhymes with Putin that stands for pain.
VLADIMI PUTIN IS A LIBRA born October 7, 1952 in St. Petersburg Russia at 9:30 am.
Vlad, like the VAMPIRE, has his NATAL SUN at 13 degrees of LIBRA conjunct SATURN at 17 degrees LIBRA. Yes- you guessed it. We know why Russia is having an economic meltdown with Putin at the helm now. This will continue into 2015 and 2016 when Pluto squares Putin’s Saturn.
Russia also claimed its right to send nuclear weapons into the Ukraine in a statement to show the world it will not back down from its “ownership” of the area. Russia cannot move its strategic nuclear forces around the country with out officially verifying this with the U.S. unless it wants to withdraw from the 2010 New START treaty.
There a number of different chart that Astrologers use for Russia. This is the most common one.
PLUTO, Lord of death, recycling, power, control, is conjunct Russia’s NEPTUNE the planet which rules OIL, natural gas, illusions, delusions, addictions. Neptune in the 11th house Retrograde at 13 degrees Capricorn also being squared by URANUS planet of revolutions, chaos, the unexpected and freedom in Russia’s large first house. Russia’s Jupiter is at 15 degrees of CANCER which symbolizes the motherland, home, food, the people, expansion, education, optimism emotional security and safety. Russia has a big stomach and is a huge breadbasket for its people. It has just voted NOT to use GMO’s Monsanto seeds.
Jupiter’s Cancer is very close to major Fixed star Sirius also 2 degrees from the U.S. SUN at 13 degrees. Of course Jupiter is also being pounded by a Uranus square to homeland security and Pluto in Capricorn expanding its own sense of what it refers to as its “home lands.” Jupiter in the 5th house will force Russia to rely on its own creative resources.
Jupiter will transit Russia’s descendant where it intersects with all “others.” It will expand into other people’s lands even more around October 2015.
Saturn is now also exactly opposite Russians Natal Mercury at 29 degrees TAURUS -extremely stubborn thinkers and communicators which is conjunct to the famous PLEIADES or 7 weeping sister, 7 kumars, of astromythic fame. Be very careful what you say Mr. Putin. Saturn will again affect this sore spot in the summer of 2015.
NEPTUNE planet of dissolution will cross Russia’s Ascendant at 11 degrees PISCES in mid April – July 2016 and again in 2017. Saturn Lord of karma, death, will be at 20 degrees of Sagittarius opposite Russia’s sun in December 2016. so BYE BYE Russia as we have known it with in the next 2 years.
China and Russia just signed trade agreements, for Russia to export cheap oil to China.
On Dec 14, China’s Premiere Li Keqiang went to Kazakhstan to sign cooperation agreements with Prime Minister Massimov. China has already signed on to revive ancient Silk Trade Routes with a $40 billion infrastructure plan to link markets across Asia. China is Kazakhstan’s biggest trade partner since 2010, they share a 1,000 mile border. This has broad military implications as well.
China in now the wealthiest country in the world and will retain that crown for quite some time. Remember that the U.S. is in a Mars Retrograde phase in its progressed chart till the 2070’s.
CHINA’s astrology chart
China’s NEPTUNE at 14 degrees Libra is smack dab in the Grand Cardinal cross of 2014 and Neptune rules oil, illusion, delusion, oneness, completion, hidden enemies, karma, religion and spirituality. Libra rules DIPLOMACY, grace, karma, balance; equal relationships which China does NOT have. Hidden enemies is a key word in China as well to watch for.
China is having a KARMIC CARDINAL CROSS as Uranus Pluto and the Nodes of the Moon are conjoining its natal Nodes. China’s North Node at 16 degrees Aries symbolizes its highest spiritual growth in the 2nd house of Money, values, resources and innovation, new inspirational energy and leadership is being aspected now and especially in 2015 at the last square on March 16 2015. Yes China is once again the largest populated and economic force in the world.There may be a big shakeup coming in China in 2015 -2016.
TURKEY
Turkey has now become a future player in Russia’s oil dilema. Russia has surprisingly dropped a $45 billion south stream natural gas pipeline and is reaching out to Turkey to draw it in by building a Trans- Anatolian Pipeline running under the Black Sea to the Greek border, making Turkey an energy hub. But the two countries do not agree on Syria, the Crimea or Cypress. We shall see. This will be a hot bed for a while.
TURKEY
has Venus at 11 degrees of Cancer in its 4th house. So trying to keep its own values and resources safe and protected is a major issue. Turkey is a very ancient culture and stronghold. Turkey has Uranus at 8 degrees Aries in its 10th house of worldly status and an 8 degree Cancer Ascendant. With a 16 degree PISCES MID HEAVEN Turkey is very vulnerable and wounded by religious factions and being able to maintain its secular stance. Religion will be a major political and economic problem and force over the next year as Chiron transits that point. Jupiter will hit the IC or roots of Turkey in October 2015 which may cause a mass exodus from here or an invasion from another country.
Yes sometimes the transits do exactly synchronistically coincide. The crash of the markets in October 2008 was exactly only 8 days after Pluto entered Capricorn. Don’t say I didn’t warn you in advance.

MEDITATIONS
There is a link below to a short Video of the marvellous Tom Kenyon’s music meditations.
Please play it over and over while you call upon the Pleiadians.
As with all meditations you must prepare first. Smudge or use incense to cleanse your aura and chakras. Slow your Breathing first in awareness, then calling in the 7 directions. Start with the east, move clockwise. Then the AS ABOVE, So BELOW, so within. The 7 sisters are related to the 7 Hathors or Egypt, 7 chakras etc.
Go outside at night. Find out when the Pleiades rise in your locality. They are always easy to spot. They are our ancestors according to Myths around the world. They are guardians. The Bible mention the Pleiades. They are very benevolent and protective. Call upon them. Sounding is also good, sound the Vowels.
The Pleiades help us to tune into our own Stellar consciousness, our innate cellular atomic connection to the origins of the Universe. There’s a cosmic physics that we are all connected. I was just watching a programme about Stephen Hawking and string theory. Physics are linking spirituality and science into one. Remember who you really are. I know I am a starseed.
Alcyone,wards off evil. Call upon her for protection. Asterope, means lightning. Do you need to be hit by it to wake up? What do you need to enlighten in your life? Celaeno- swarthy. Elektra- means shining. Focus on your inner being which shines with immortal Light. Merope- eloquent, mortal. Focus on your fragile human form. Be grateful to have a human body and consciousness which is mortal. Taygete- long- necked. Where do you need to stick your neck out? Maia- which means Grandmother, or nurse. She will guide you and hold you. Love you. Protect you. Stay in the meditation for as long as you like and ask the 7 sistars to come into your dreams.

May Day Magic, Beltane, Faeries FIRE and FERTILITY FESTIVAL
Beltane means “fire of Bel” or “bright fire” the “bale-fire”. Known as the bright and shinning one, Celtic Sun God. Beli is the father, protector, and the husband of the Mother Goddess. This is a FERTILITY CELEBRATION, The Beltane Fires, the MAY POLE, marking the cross quarter day between SPRING and SUMMER.
MAY DAY is a traditional Fertility and Sacred Marriage Festival of the Sun to the Earth. The Bel fire is a sacred fire with healing and purifying powers. The fires celebrate the return of life, fruitfulness to the earth and the burning away of winter. The ashes of the Beltane fires were smudged on faces and scattered in the fields. Household fires would be extinguished and re-lit with fresh fire from the Bel Fires.
As Beltane marks this handfasting (wedding) of the Goddess and God, it too marks the reawakening of the earth’s fertility. This is the union between the Great Mother and her Young Consort; this coupling brings new life on earth. On a Spiritual level and a physical, it is the union of the Earth and Sun, man and woman to bring about the fruitfulness of the growing season.
MAy DAy is alchemy in action, the sacred Marriage.
Mother nature shows Herself alive again, flowers are blooming, sprouting, birds are mating, building nests, bees are buzzing. Beltane was and is a very auspicious time in Celtic lore.
The PLEIADES
Beltane is marked in the Heavens as the rising of the Pleiades star cluster just before sunrise on the morning horizon, whereas winter (Samhain/Halloween) begins when the Pleiades rises at sunset. The Pleiades were very important to many ancient cultures. Some Native American tribes say that their Ancestors were Star Beings who came from the Pleiades. In Japan, the modern car Subaru means Pleiades and 6 of the stars are shown on its symbol. {We’ve always driven Subaru’s partly for this reason.}
The Ancients believed that the Wheel of Time would not turn without human intervention.
People did everything in their power to honour and call and beckon the Sun and His light, for the earth would not produce life without the Sun’s warmth, his Love. We usually don’t think of the Sun as a Loving God anymore. It is important to honour these Nature Festivals, or turning of the Wheel of the Year, our ancestors did so for thousands of years. N
If we’re not in Right Relationship with other Nature then woe be to those who feel her wrath- As we’ve been trying to fool Mother Nature for many years now and continue to do so in the Industrialized world, balance can be attained by participating in these kind of Ancient Festivals.
Neo-tribalism is a necessity now.
FAERIES
May Day is a magical day so be aware of incidents that may occur. The Queen of the Faeries is said to ride out on her white hose and trying to entice people away to Faeryland. Legend says that if you sit beneath a tree on Beltane night, you may see the Faery Queen in all Her Glory or hear the sound of Her horses’s belles as She rides throughout the night.
FERTILITY
Young men and women wandered into the woods before daybreak of May Day morning with garlands of flowers and/or branches of trees. They would make love in the woods, and dance around the Maypole. Pre-Christian society’s thoughts about human sexuality and fertility were not based on guilt or any such concept as original sin, but seen as a joyous natural expression of human passions. Life was seen as a joyful dance, rich in all beauty to be celebrated not defined ordered, made lawful.
