Sun Into Virgo 2016 Edition
Welcome and Happy Birthday to our Virgos,
The Sun is heading into thoughtful, meticulous Virgo as we prepare for the next Saturn square to Neptune and Mercury retrograde. Giant Jupiter is changing signs and two eclipses are also on the
way. I got to talk about the cycle ahead with Kristy Ayala, and you can listen to that show at your convenience. I've also made a video which includes charts for five significant dates during the cycle ahead. And this month's newsletter has a subscriber-exclusive gift for you. Enjoy. |
Taurus
It is time to get grounded, to be realistic about your situation, and to reconnect
with what makes you feel secure and abundant.
THE MEANING BEHIND THE CARD
Taurus is symbolized by the bull, and the strength of this sturdy animal is here to gently and firmly anchor you back down to earth. With your feet planted on solid
ground, a deeper awareness of the truth in your current circumstances emerges. From this quiet state of knowing, concerns, overactive thoughts, and fears give away to understanding, stability, and a recognition of the wealth that is always available to you. With the bull’s wisdom, patience, and resources, you can build the life of your dreams.
TOOLBOX
Journey into sensuality. The fixed earth sign of Taurus strongly connects us with our five senses; taste, touch, sight, hearing, and smell. In our fast-paced lives, however, we are often out of touch with the essence of the physical world we live in . . . to the point that our awareness of things such as textures, flavors, and visual details eludes
us. So, dedicate some time and space to reconnecting with earthly pleasures. This can take any form, including preparing a slow-cooked meal, taking an herbal bath, or going for a long walk in nature. During your chosen activity, be aware of scents, temperatures, and sounds. For example, washing your hair with the bull would invite you to notice the distinct color and fragrance of your shampoo, the crackling of its bubbles as they lather your head, and the relaxing
experience of thoroughly massaging your hair and scalp. When these sensations are fully embraced, you have received the gifts of Taurus.
AFFIRMATION
I am always connected to the Source of overflowing abundance and
joy.

As the next Saturn square to Neptune builds, the Sun joins Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and the North Node in discerning Virgo. The cycle ahead features two eclipses, the movement of Venus and Jupiter into Libra and the year’s next Mercury retrograde. All of the details are in this month's
video.

The 6th chakra enhances psychic ability, expands imagination and helps us see reality more clearly, while the 7th chakra links us with source intelligence. In this video, I play crystal bowls tuned to a frequency that activates both chakras. Bathe in the colors and sounds of the 3rd eye and crown
chakras.
A Mercury retrograde is an ideal time for re-viewing our lives. Opening the chakras that aid us with "seeing" seemed appropriate enough for this time. While I posted the video for everyone to see on Youtube, here is a link to an MP3 of the music for you. Once downloaded, you can listen to the music anywhere without being tethered to the internet. Thank you for subscribing!
For those of you who have followed my work for a while, you know that I am an ardent proponent of following one's dreams. Mine have lead me here to Austin, TX, a city well-respected for its musical talent and heritage. Since moving here, I've found a local songwriters
group. At sessions and workshops, I'm constantly impressed by the caliber of players and writers here. So winning two awards last month was humbling, encouraging and inspiring. Here's a link to a demo of the song that won these awards. I hope this a good reminder to everyone to follow your heart. Things always have a way of
working themselves out, and the joy you create when you do what you love is irreplaceable.
Alright! That's a wordy edition, perfect for Mercury-ruled Virgo. Thank you always for your subscription and support. Jupiter's changing signs, and I look forward to sharing more with you about that when the Sun moves into Libra. Until then, enjoy the last month of
summer.
With love always,
Elizabeth |
