Holding The Hot and Leaden handles of Hades and EL

Spring is upon us, we will meet the spring equinox on March 20, 2016 6:29 AM EDT when the moon is at 27* of Sagittarius and the sun is ingressing into Aries at 0*.
First, we settle into the full moon at 22* of Virgo at 10:53 am on March 12th.   Do you see the lovely T-square with Saturn/EL hovering at 27* Sagittarius (the Galactic Center) forming the handle to the sun at 22* PIsces swimming alongside (In occultation with) Chiron the wounded healer at 24* PIsces which drags Mercury/Hermes into the net  at 28* PIsces. We see this is a very dreamy force in opposition to LaLuna at 22* of Virgo the Virgin.  Look at it this way, you will finally feel like you are getting little bit of a ‘handle on the situation’, as you hold the opposite energies and the Lord of the Rings opens the fault line of the Galactic Center infusing a sterling centaur up from the depths of your soul.
But not so fast, just when you think you have a firm grip on our changing world, we see that Pluto/Hades still has a death grip at 19 Capricorn on the handle of the T square formed by squaring Uranus at 22* of Aries the Ram in opposition to Jupiter/Zeus at 21* Libra the scales of justice.  All of this, while Venus/Aphrodite stationed Retrograde on March 4th. At 13* Aries.
Venus you see, rules your resources and basic income/wealth.  Retrograde, she might pull back something you’ve earned and didn’t receive or she could move the carrot a little further down the road, depending on your personal horoscope and choices.  She will ram down the road and jump into the deep waters of Pisces on April 2nd at 8:29AM.  We can hear the steam as it burns off the heat of Aries and submerges into the watery depths until we remember we can breathe under water and ‘release ourselves’ at 26*PIsces when she finally stations direct on April 15th.   Here is the kicker, at 26* PIsces Venus will be meeting up with Chiron who has galloped through the sea now at 26* Pisces too and together they are not only

squaring Saturn/EL at 27* of Sagittarius, riding the Galactic Center don’t forget, but tapping into the light of the sun in the light of the full moon. Chiron being a centaur, swimming with Venus/Aphrodite we are reminded that the hippocampus is literally a ‘sea horse’.  This as you will recall is also the ‘Chariot’ card number 07.  See how the hippocampus is literally a sea horse, swimming in the Neptunian waters of your mind?  Now, as the sun has left his glow you can see your star light, your ‘essence’ rising with Venus/Aphrodite you will give birth once she reaches the shores of Aries again, dries off her drenched heart and leaves the discomfort of old EL’s cold, leaden, reality.  On April 28th, Venus will find her way back to the hot, scorched earth of Aries.  Along the way, she will also meet up with Hermes/Mercury on March 18th at 9* of Aries.  Ever see a depth charger go off deep in the sea?  Well, picture that and you will get an idea of the energy being ‘discharged’.

 Mercury rules communication and merchants too, so we will probably see a long list of ‘big box’ stores closing.  Mercury/Hermes will station RX on April 9th at 4* of Taurus the bull and Venus/Aphrodite at 27* PIsces will oppose Lady Luna who will be at 27* of sensual Virgo the Virgin. This whole period we will be seeing signs of troubled waters on the world stage financially, that will bring a very revealing ‘May Day’.
Many of us are still just learning to hold the reigns of our own chariots, and these two handles, Saturn/EL and Pluto/Hades are neither are comfortable or easy as the two levers by which we can chart our course.  Saturn in Sagittarius you can hear the horse restless in the gate, he wants to run free and yet he is harnessed.  This brings up all the issues of ‘the other’ and this time has people weaving together their spiritual beliefs with the mundane world.  Who is a foreigner?  We see the confluence of indigenous cultures with descendants of immigrants and the question of where the flow of refugees, streaming out of the Middle East and up into Europe and out into the seas like branches on a huge tree.   Pluto/Hades in Capricorn is like grabbing a hot coal and slowly over time, becoming comfortable out of necessity after the blisters subside.  He is burning down the golden pyramid from the inside.  We see the last vestiges of our government as we enter into the end of an age, when first Saturn/El will conjunct/occult the natal US Pluto preparing for our Pluto return in 2020.
We will see many structures change over the coming years.
Now for the really personal, we go to the very ‘essence’ and which essential oils or blends are important right now.  Every time you use Breathing Easy © you are helping build your immune system and preparing your temple (Temp-EL) for the Holy Spirit.  Two secret ingredients being Frankincense and Myrrh, you are always anointing your temp-el.
In addition this time of the year brings up many allergies as the sun thaws out the frozen soil and so much is released into the air.  We will do our annual Breathing Easy and Sinus special because as usual, so many are still suffering those nasty colds, Bronchitis and flu that doesn’t want to leave and in some cases, seem to have set up their own personal camp.
But you have what you need with ArcAncient’s Breathing Easy © and Sinus relief © and so do your clients!
Fortunately or unfortunately as the case may be, there is a reason I know a lot about dealing with compromised lungs.  As shared with you last year at this time, but for those who weren’t with us yet and those that were, it bears repeating.
Most of you know, that when I died, laying in that hospital bed unmoving save for being moved, I
was a prime candidate for pneumonia and got a terrible case during that hospital stay.
It was God awful let me tell you, having to use the breathing apparatus, making my hurting lungs try to expand, it feels as though they are in a lead vise.
My stomach being completely cut open, seriously…open the entire length of my stomach, stem to sternum, and being forced to cough, to move that leaden blanket around my chest,
which also made my stomach heave, so I had to try to hold both at the same time without spilling my guts out…through the bandaging.
So, when I say that I know what it is like to be very sick,  perhaps you might understand a bit more, why it is that I do what I do.
Why it is important that everything is of the most exquisite ingredients (pure organic essential oils and organic golden jojoba as carrier) possible, because I use them myself and have now for over 20 years.
So have many other people, yourselves included, and can you imagine being without this crucial helper when you feel something coming on, let alone when you actually come down with something?
I cannot.  I don’t want to think what it would be like, not to be able to reach for my Breathing Easy, simply remove the cap, roll it around my throat and chest, on a tissue to continue to inhale deeply, and yes, I am many others I have learned, roll it right inside of my nose.
In fact, another true story I tell, is of a friend of mine, Linda Green’s experience, sharing a Breathing Easy with one of the Shaman’s in Machu Pichu.  She explains that he wanted to see the Breathing Easy and he shoved the whole bottle up his nose and snorted it so she said he could just ‘keep it for himself now’…lol.  ~ Yes, even a genuine shaman wanted the Breathing Easy that bad.
With over 11 different pure essential oils, this blend is a must have, and if you feel that way, share your own story, your own comfort in knowing that you have that to rely on to help you through a rough patch.
Not only will this help you through a sickness, should you come down with something, it will help boost the immune system, and rolled on the throat and chest, will help keep you from getting sick too.
Ravensara is the major component of our Breathing Easy and Sinus blends.

The leader in this blend, is of course, RAVENSARA.

Breathing Easy Into Spring

 Spring is upon us, we will meet the spring equinox on March 20, 2016 12:30 EDT when the moon is at 23* of Leo and the sun is ingressing into PIsces.
As lovely as that is, we are now under an arctic blast up in Northeast Ohio, after having been pretty much spared our normally harsh winter with plenty of snow and shoveling.
What else is upon us, are the nasty colds, bronchitis and flu’s that don’t want to leave and in some cases, seem to have set up their own personal camp.
But you have what you need, if you have ArcAncient’s Breathing Easy © and Sinus relief © and so does anyone lucky enough to be in your circle!
Most of you know, that when I died, laying in that hospital bed unmoving save for being moved, I was a prime candidate for pneumonia and got a terrible case during that hospital stay.

I have since, used Breathing Easy (c) successfully to safely and naturally heal through bouts of pneumonia, bronchitis and other more minor ailments, such as any of the common colds that have trafficked through the area and so have many, many others by now.  There are so many success stories, stories of people with COPD, using this roll on from ArcAncient; like Pat, who planned on retiring within the month because of COPD, and who ended up working another year and a half, and who could only sleep, because of Breathing Easy.  There are so many stories...
In fact, another true story I tell, is of a friend of mine, Linda Green’s experience, sharing a Breathing Easy with one of the Shaman’s in Machu Pichu.  She explains that he wanted to see the Breathing Easy and he shoved the whole bottle up his nose and snorted it so she said he could just ‘keep it for himself now’…lol.  ~ Yes, even a genuine shaman wanted the Breathing Easy that bad.

To this, we add a couple drops of ArcAncient’s pure, organic lemon essential oil and some local honey.  (The stuff in supermarkets is often not even honey).

Though there is plenty to substantiate the miracles of honey, here is some additional info: BULGARIA: Noting that honey is effective against colds, flu, and other respiratory infections, as well as immunodepression, Buhner recalls a Bulgarian study of 17, 862 patients showing that honey helped allergic and chronic rhinitis, asthmatic bronchitis, bronchitis, and sinusitis (Buhner, 1999)
LATIN AMERICAN: Among Latinos, Amazonians use Motelo sanango stems and roots decocted with wild bee honey for female sterility. Maidenhair infusion is mixed with honey as expectorant, for rheumatism, and colds, heartburn, and sour stomach. Andeans use agave leaf tea with honey as a collyrium for conjunctivitis. Bolivians use century plant with honey for bruises, gonorrhea, internal tumors, nephritis, rheumatism, and tuberculosis. Bolivians gargle pineapple decoction with honey for angina, sore throat, and tonsilitis. Choco Indians mix papaya latex with honey as a vermifuge. Haitians use the Haiti Catalpa leaf tea with honey to relieve angina. Panama natives put copaiba mixed with honey in newborne mouths to impart knowledge and ward off hexes; also used for VD. Amazons mix bitter cane (Costus) stem juice with honey for cough, colds, and whooping cough.

Bolivians use calabash decoction with honey to bring on the menstrual period. Peruvians take calabash jelly (hot fruit juice with honey and lemon) for bronchosis and cough. Chileans steep Winter’s Bark leaf in boiling water with honey as a stomachic tonic. Peruvians macerate ripe genipaps in rum with honey, for rheumatism. Haitians mix sweet potato root, honey and sulfur for cough. Peruvians use lantana leaf decoction with honey, garlic, and onion for bronchosis and cold (DAV). Hondurans cook Peruvian basil root with anise and honey cardiac pain and cough. A shot of chuchuhuasi with aguardiente and honey was given many ecotourists on departure from the Iquitos airport in 1991. All survived withdrawal from the Amazonian rain forest. And many came back, habituated. Latinos gargle leaf decoction with lemon and honey for sore throat. Peruvians apply matico leaves in honey to leishmanial sores. There is the strange mix of stinging hairs (Mucuna) in honey ingested to dislodge worms. Amazonians take honey with andiroba, black pepper, copaiba, and sugar, for bronchitis, coughs, laryngitis and pharyngitis. Bolivians use paud’arco leaf tea with honey as a tonic. Peruvians take Tecoma floral tea with honey as diuretic, pectoral, and sudorific (Source: Duke, JA; Vasquez Martinez, R. 1994. Amazonian Ethnobotanical Dictionary (Peru). CRC Press, Inc., Boca Raton, FL. 215 pp., and Duke, JA, Bogenschutz-Godwin, MJ, and Ottesen, A. 2008. Duke’s Handbook of Medicinal Plants of Latin America. CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL. 901pp).
NORTH AMERICAN: Dan Moerman was kind enough to print out from his database the entries that involved honey among, e.g., the Cahuila, Cherokee, Diegueno, Navajo (floral honey), and Rappahannock Native Americans. Most often it seems to be added to medicinal herbs as a tonic or for asthma, coughs, colds pertussis, and sorethroat. Moerman’s printout includes no mention of topical use for burns, infections, or sores. (Moerman, Daniel E. 1998. Native American Ethnobotany.

Dante's Inferno Cracking Open the Depths

At 12:11PM EST the sun seemingly slows to a ‘standstill’ and we arrive at the golden gates of in-between as sun shines for the least amount of hours and we are covered in darkness, yet in many parts, the sparkling snow will blanket the ground and the stars will appear to have fallen to the ground.

Yes, we have arrived at the time of the Winter Solstice, which officially marks the entrance to winter, but in a few days, we shall see the return of the sun…finally!  Enough of the dark days already!

The sun has reached its southern-most position and will start its course northward in the early degrees of Capricorn, the goat.  He is starting his trek towards an alignment with Pluto/Hades and will meet up with the Lord of the underworld on New Year’s Day, which also happens to be the New Moon at 5:15AM.

But on his way towards his rendezvous with La Luna and Hades at first 10* then 11*(with Pluto/Hades) he has some powerful points that will open the depths of the universe; already the turning spiral of stars has been buzzing with powerful if not crushing energy, especially as the moon went into her full light in Gemini at 25* on December 17^th.

For many, it may have felt as though we were navigating Dante’s Inferno, with powerful emotions being triggered as Mars (drive/passions/motivation/energy) motored forward at 4* of Libra, beginning his T-square  as he squared Pluto (death/sex/taxes)and began his opposition to Uranus (Lord of the sky/community/genius/aha moments/sudden changes).  With the duplicitous and frenetic energy of Gemini, the moon becomes scattered, emotions are like a windstorm, and opposing the sun in jocular Sagittarius, with the cardinal cross looming, the sense of dread, of doom and of frustration emerges.  Sag the Centaur wants freedom to roam and move forward.

With Uranus newly gone direct with the new moon too, it is hard to keep things in your hands, as they seemingly fly out and crash onto the floor, papers, pens, whatever it is, wants to be heard and irritate as the static energy bursts open, computers, cell phones all things technological do their darndest to go haywire and not run smoothly.

Gemini rules children, and Mercury the messenger guarding the crossroads of temptation can be a very alluring trickster, with all the bells and whistles tempting the child in us to ‘break free’ of restrictions and climb down the stairway all bedazzled and sweetly scented for the descent into the inferno, though they are completely unaware of the dangers that lie ahead.

Yes, Dante’s Inferno has all but cracked open, and we still have yet to hit the harder aspects forming…because Jupiter has reversed his course, his Sagittarian realms of joy and abundance are being sucked into the Grand Cardinal Cross which we will surely feel on Christmas day, even though the degrees are a bit wide, Mars/Ares will be pairing up with LaLuna in Libra bringing the energy of the square to Jupiter/Zeus as they squeeze the heavens together.  For anyone who has planets in these Cardinal signs, especially in the degrees between 8-13*, you will surely feel the weight of these great changes even more acutely.  A change is going to come, and we haven't even hit the next big square in April, let alone the culmination in 2015, so set your sails with the right winds NOW!

So, Cerberus may seem as just a playful ‘two-headed’ (as this theme is rampant with Gemini/Janus) dog when the children approach the lair, but returning is another story altogether.  Who can cross the river Styx?  Saint Barbara will be called upon many times during these days by those who are wise, and Saint Christopher would be a wise bet too, for if you have ventured into the time of no time, of the dark swallows, best you have the tools of the Arc with you, or a lament with the sweetness of Hermes lyre playing in the background, might be more like the wales of the gallows, tormented by the ravaging wolves returning hungry and cold.  One can only hope you have fed them, lest your cries be hope rising from the depths.  We can expect many to transition now, and this is said with the heaviest of hearts, but we cannot always be laughing on the sunny side of the street.
There will be sickness, we will see the first of what will become more and more predominant as we fight back the ravages of technology gone wrong on our planet, and deal with the doorways that have been opened through genetic manipulation, and the real cost of nuclear power (ruled by Pluto/Hades) as it casts its pall across the blue ball of Gaia, will we wake up in time?

And where is Jupiter/Zeus retrograde?  He is in Cancer which is ruled by the moon, so this square is potent, and the grand cross in Cardinal signs of: Cancer, Libra, Capricorn and Aries are like flint-stones ready to start fires, instigate and they will burn down the house that Cancer rules if you don’t watch the tempers or fuel the flames with ‘the spirits’ of sorts.

Questions such as ‘what is home’ and being as it is the wanderlust Jupiter/Zeus, ‘where is home’ will also be tugging at the heart-strings.

We will need plenty of ArcAncient’s Sleep Angel © ~http://www.arcancientaromatherapy.com/~shop/roll-ons/sleep-angel-roll-on/185598/?catId=34723

 ~Because if we aren’t grounded and rested, we won’t have the energy necessary to deal with the onslaught that keeps coming and coming.  And we will need plenty of Breathing Easy © to help us keep breathing and fight off the nasty bugs floating around, that will surely overtake us if we let our systems run down too far, trying to keep up with the hectic pace that is spinning in all directions.
http://www.arcancientaromatherapy.com/~shop/breathing-easy-roll-on/185095/?catId=34723

Now, the new moon on January 1, 2014 at 5:15AM has the royal wedding of the sun and la Luna hitching their lights to Hades with Mercury the Messenger (one of the few God’s that Hades will entertain) all having a party in the cave of the underworld, we can expect some depraved thoughts and worse to swallow and entice us, should we ‘break’ our own moral compass and step out of the safety zone of the heart.  Expect some of the most unusual stories to emerge on the big screen, as the theme of what is perverted permeates the celluloid world and begs us to have the conversation about right and wrong and what is LOVE?

With Venus/Aphrodite leading the line- up, as if she is running away, being chased by daemons at 26* of Capricorn, what Pandemonium may ensue or Plutocratic blanket will cover us, perhaps sympathy for Persephone as Hades drags her down for company will lap over our darkened spirits and heart, as our own hearts break under pressure and we all commiserate, there but for the grace of God go I.

Saturn/El, the Lord of the Rings, (structure/hierarchy/establishment) now at 20* of Scorpio, is no longer ready to assist Hades, as their mutual reception has widened we will no longer feel the firm ground beneath us, and floor may seem as it has fallen out from under our feet.  Watch your step, your knees as they buckle under the immense weight of the watery depths of Scorpio, look to the firm anchor you may have created (hopefully) in the home, as only Jupiter/Zeus will support his disloyal father in a trine, yet even he is moving away, as he seems to move backward, stepping deeper into the crab’s clutches, and not wanting to let go of the treasures he has buried there.

And to think, all of this is only the foothills of what is to come, when the end of Janus turning her head like Medusa on January 27^th, we can only hope and pray that we are on the right side when she turns her head towards us…

The energy is like pop rocks inside, bursting and buzzing with both anticipation and trepidation…something very big is about to happen…Fasten your seatbelts!

Better take some nice baths with ArcAncient’s ‘Inner Glow’ for the heart:

May New Moon Eclipse Has the Feminine Escaping Her Captor

May New Moon Eclipse Has the Feminine Escaping Her Captor

 

Here we are the second gateway of the eclipses and just as we shared in the last post with the lunar eclipse; “The stellium of Venus, Sun and Mars all in Taurus, opposing the Moon, Saturn and the N. Node in Scorpio, will bring up issues of wealth and possessions no matter what.  With Saturn hanging so close to La Luna in Scorpio, while she dips behind the male sun, it could feel very heavy and clandestine affairs may seem more enticing or even exposed when the moon comes back out from hiding.”

We see the escape of three women (God bless them) and along with them, the child one conceived (Amanda Berry) coming out of a deeply clandestine (secret/hidden) relationship; well, it was no relationship other than what was forced upon these girls, by this very maladjusted male (Ariel Castro) who kidnapped them over 10 years ago.  This kind of abuse, sexually, physically and verbally is Scorpio at its worst, along with Gemini being duplicitous, acting a double life while Jupiter was in Gemini and Pluto is in Capricorn/Janus the two-headed God looking both ways to keep the unsuspecting away from the depravity Hades has cooked up.  Once again we see the myth play out, and Hades rapes Persephone all over again, drags her into his underground lair and chains her, binds her against her will.  (The girls were chained in the basement for a long time; little by little Ariel let them up to the second floor.)
Ariel (pronounced Ari'el), literally means 'Lion of God'. "Ari" (Lion) in Hebrew is also a synonym for bravery and courage and it is also the symbol of the tribe of Judah.  Castro, as in Castra: In classical Latin the word castra always means "great legionary encampment", both "marching", "temporary" ones and the "fortified permanent" ones.  The Lion of God finds his hideaway, supposedly a brave soul fortifies an encampment and takes this to the extreme opposite of what the evolved and regal Lion would actually do, he is depraved.

There is no sign of courage from Ariel, but we do see the real bravery come from Amanda Berry, when she risks her life to escape, to scream and peek her hand out the barricaded door to the encampment and find freedom

While this is going on, we also see pictures return from Saturn/El who is retrograde in Scorpio, being ravaged by a huge hurricane at Saturn’s North Pole.  So the storms are coming during these eclipses, the great gates where we are told in scripture and as we have shared in this blog, the flaming Cherubim stand guard; on this the fixed cross of Ezekiel’s vision.

All three girls (Gina DeJesus, Amanda Berry and Michelle Knight) have come out of the dark hell and emerged into the light of day, to face a challenging time of healing and reintegrating into society; but at least they are out of that hell.

This is the second gate of the spring eclipses, the first being the Full Moon eclipse we had with the moon at 6* of Scorpio on April 25^th.  So Scorpio is a major theme, and of course, Pluto/Hades is the ruler of the 8^th house and Scorpio.  What is even more important in these impacts, is that, we had that it rekindles the first burning embers of last year’s eclipses and will wind up later this year in the Total Solar Eclipse with the New Moon at 11* of Scorpio, and our first eclipse this year was at 5* of Scorpio while conjunct Saturn retrograde at 8* of Scorpio, and He is in mutual reception with Pluto in Capricorn right now too, so this has such a heavy Scorpio/2^nd and 8^th house energy that it is almost impossible NOT to feel heavy and feel the effects either personally, or through immediate circle and of course we see it playing out on the world stage too.

This will take a lot of people through the gates, both the birth/death and re-birth cycles/wheels are all in play and as stated in the last Full Moon post, it is a pressure cooker to be sure.

“Fasten your seat belts; it’s going to be a bumpy night”. ~Betty Davis in “All About Eve”.

Well, poor Eve, is paying, and as if Castro had his own three personal muses, the tables are about to turn, both in his life and with all the masculine energy that is still caught in a very sickly and depraved state of mind, that includes entitlements that were never given to them in the first place; no wonder Saturn is stormy right now.

In the meantime, we have the conviction of (Jodi Arias), who stabbed her boyfriend, Travis Alexander, 29 times and found guilty of First Degree Murder in the 2008 killing.  There we have ‘Arias’ so let’s take a closer look at Arias and Ariel, shall we?

 An aria (Italian for air; plural: arie, or arias in common usage, diminutive form arietta) in music was originally any expressive melody, usually, but not always, performed by a singer.  Some kind of opera eh?  Now let’s look back at Ariel, ‘Lion of God’ or Lion.  Ariel (Hebrew: אריאל, Ari'el, Arael or Ariael‎) is an archangel found primarily in Jewish and Christian mysticism and Apocrypha. The name Ariel, "Lion of God" or "Hearth of God," occurs in the Hebrew Bible (Isaiah 29:1-7) as a personification of Jerusalem.  Ariel is mentioned with other elemental titles such as the "3rd archon of the winds," in Angelic folklore.  In the Coptic Pistis Sophia (MS. Add. 5114.), Jesus bids the apostles preach that they "be delivered from the rivers of smoke of Ariel."  According to the German occultist Cornelius Agrippa (1486–1535): "Ariel is the name of an angel, sometimes also of a demon, and of a city, whence called Ariopolis, where the idol is worshipped."

Leo the Lion is found on the Great Cross of Ezekiel’s wheel.  Of course, all the planets on this cross will be feeling this energy, because of the squares, but expect Scorpio’s and Taurus to really take on the brunt of this (going back to our explanation of Pluto/Hades in Capricorn and the mutual reception with Saturn in Scorpio, which opens that doorway for them to tap into each other’s energy, sharing if you will and magnifying the power of both.  Let’s see, now who are we missing on that cross?  Aquarius, and they will be feeling perhaps a bit ‘left out in the cold’ during all of this, not quite able to find where they belong, almost in limbo, and Leo will feel more disempowered, as if they just cannot get their paws on the reigns, they have to give this up to a higher power, the bigger picture and realize, all their maneuverings and energy they have put into ‘controlling’ things, just isn’t going to bear fruit.  They are not in charge right now, and that is not comfortable for the Lion.  Even their roar might seem a bit more like a meow.

With Uranus in Aries (ruler of Aquarius still working his way back into that square with Pluto, who is also retrograde, it is like a vise tightening and winding up the tourniquet, there is no escaping the birth canal of these eclipses, that puts the Cardinal Cross (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn~ and especially Aries, Capricorn and Libra’s, into this mix up too, and we just cannot escape the giant press, as the universe conspires to squeeze the Grapes of Wrath into some sort of wine that the fruit of the vine, seems to believe will be worth all of this tribulation.

But the major themes; will be about resources and what we have or don’t have as the case may be; sex and the abuse of power, and the abuse of drugs, as we will watch even more fatalities of major people lose their lives to this evil seducer, this is no time to take chances and dance with the devil, he isn’t just taking numbers, it is winner take all.

I expect to hear more from Fidel Castro, and wonder if he is actually still alive, with his name, ‘Castro’ we see we already have been given a warning about what that name may conceal, and he may have to finally meet the dealer he made his pact with.

We can expect taxes and legacy’s, wills and inheritances be given at the very least, a deeper look, inspection and concern as to just how these matters are being taken care of, and we will see people be taken down the river, for all the world to see, when they thought they could somehow get around the very tight grip, that the masters of the lower kingdom of this world, have in place.  See the story of Lauren Hill for starters.

We can expect more fist pounding and flag waving over the Health Care Act, with drug and insurance companies seething with anticipation of having us all under their ‘spell’, watch how this gets ‘SPELLED’ out for us, across the news and in all kinds of media, including those outlets, that people think are sharing some sort of secret truth, when actually they are hired by the same aforementioned corporations (Saturn in mutual aspect to Pluto in Capricorn) as they court one another and sting behind the scenes to gain more control, over OUR RESOURCES, THAT INCLUDES THE HUMAN VARIETY.

Will the market remain Bullish?  Well, let’s look back to where we were in November of last year and the full moon eclipse we had on November 28^th.

The Markets ended in the red after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's discouraging comments about the "fiscal cliff" overshadowed a number of positive economic reports. Additionally, Greece's lenders concurred on providing additional aid to the nation. Among the positive economic readings, consumer confidence jumped to its highest level in more than four years. The Utilities sector was the only gainer among the S&P 500 industry groups.

 The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) declined 0.7% to close the day at 12,878.13. The Standard & Poor 500 (S&P 500) dropped 0.5% to finish yesterday's trading session at 1,398.94. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index shed 0.3% to end at 2,967.79. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) surged 2.7% to settle at 15.92. Consolidated volumes on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and Nasdaq were roughly 5.9 billion shares, significantly lower than the daily average of 6.5 billion shares. Declining stocks outpaced

Why do I refer to this?  Well, we had our friend Scorpio in big red letters writing deals AND we have Saturn retrograde in Scorpio just one degree shy right now (he will get to that degree shortly, in fact on May 15^th, Saturn will again be at 6* of Scorpio, just in time for the May 20^th exact square of Pluto to Uranus.) Saturn retrograde, is revisiting this old energy, He/El wants to make sure there are no loose ends, and no confusion as to his power, and what he wants, just take a look at the hurricane picture to get an idea of just how much business, he means.

But enough of the good news right?

What ever shall we do?

Well, ( in my best Samantha Stephens voice) we have some distant, albeit possible sextiles from Pluto to that stellium in Taurus, with the Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Mars all hanging out together (watching the Moon and Sun ‘get it on’, kids, it is time to look away, hahaha, levity right?)

Anyway, that stellium in Taurus is Bullish.  This is the ‘fixed’ cross for a reason, it is not easy to move a bull, a lion, an eagle/scorpion or the angel of man in Aquarius, if not downright impossible some times.  They just don’t change their minds very easily.

The most access to this sextile will come from Mars and even he is considered wide with an orb of 3* but hey, let’s take what we can, shall we?

So Mars/ruler of Aries, not so happy in Taurus.  Aries wants to be rash, impetuous and think later, let’s just go, go, go.  But Taurus, wants to plod along, taking the time to consider the action deeply, lest they spend too much energy in the wrong place and waste it all without actually getting a return on that expenditure, especially not getting some new ‘possession’.

So, in this sense, it is good; we can see the reigns pulled in, to consider investments, act more cautiously and really think long and hard before we make a rash statement (Mars conjunct Mercury in Taurus) which is hopefully taking a rest too, rather than the incendiary relationship its 2* orb from the Sun and Moon might produce.  No, this is a wait and see, think before we act, and especially with the opposition to Lord of the Rings/Saturn opposing the actions, it is a bit too heavy a time for bad investments, and pie-in the-sky- dreams.

Investments in Real Estate, will be front and center, and should at least hold the market steady without taking any crazy plunges, while not racing into the future with a big ol’ bubble either.

Neptune/Poseidon still making a nice trine to Saturn, with a square to Venus/Aphrodite, makes us want to pay attention to our dreams, Neptune in Pisces is already potent, but with Saturn trining, we might just get a good foundation being laid out in our dreams, so pay attention, she is telling us what we really love, and Venus can rise out of the Sea, newly in Gemini, with many loves and at the least, a lot of new idea’s, that a good Taurus foundation, is just prime in this spring, to gestate.

As the Sun mates with this New Moon, consider strongly what we wish for, and plant your deepest love inside the garden of your mind, as we are piercing the veil and opening our soul, the muses are coming out into the light, and even the sun, is behind the moon, to support her new growth.

Careful what you wish for, the gods are listening and smiling down on our brave hearted yearning and budding new births.

We got this.

To help you during this time, I recommend strongly having plenty of ArcAncient Aromatherapy’s ‘Arthritis & Fibro’ Roll on and Cream, as well as ‘the chakra blend of Courage ©’.

Breathe Easy, with our Breathing Easy Roll on.

Be well my fellow star travelers, thanks for riding with me.

www.arcancient.comOoh Ooh Child, things are gona get easier..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DHRGrIqmb0&feature=shareI’ll be calling on the Holy Spirit and Mary Magdalene, to help us come to absorb the power of the solar being, and invest that into moving a strong and loving feminine energy forward, to heal ourselves, and this planet, there are children coming out of the depths of hell, we have to make a loving world for them.

Mars Conjunct Saturn in Libra

Hey, we had a new moon in Leo on Friday.  That followed something even bigger, the Mars conjunction to Saturn on Wednesday.  That is big because it is the start of a 29-30 year cycle.  The conjunction of planets is always like a ‘new moon’ cycle, what we seed in the conjunction or conjunctivo (marriage/yoga) is what we plant that will grow into offspring come the full moon of that cycle, and the waning period is the falling away of the detritus of the cycle, or that which we find is not authentic or necessary for our journey after all.

Now, we look at the planets in question: Saturn is the structure or resistance, the form that contains the dimensional version of the lesson.  He is the Lord of the rings, the last planet that is visible to the naked eye, ruling the inner planets.  He is the old man and time.  He is the goat that climbs to the top of the mountain where he rules/lords over what is below and He is El/God of the Hebrew bible and Chronos in Greek Mythology.

He rules the pyramidal structure, corporations, government and as El, rules the Sabbath and Saturn’s day, which is the 7^th day of the week, for rest.  He teaches us to govern ourselves or be governed by that which we haven’t learned to rule ourselves.  That preparation and work bring freedom, or freedom will be taken away.

When we add Mars into the mix, Mars is action and the warrior.  He runs into field without the slightest thought but to overcome.  He is the ‘I AM’ of the zodiac, learning about the mundane needs without thought to a higher outcome, just to be victorious.  He is where we put energy in our chart and how we use energy or where we focus.

They have teamed up in Libra where Saturn has been travelling back and forth since October of 2009.  Libra wants to balance things, and it rules partnerships, relationships and harmony.  With Saturn transiting Libra, many lessons have been pulled up regarding partnerships and what a relationship should mean, what is the responsibility of each partner and is it ‘fair’?

This is also true of all relationships, so it is not just about marriage, but each person in relating.

If you are a Libra, you may have gone through a serious amount of struggle, resistance or difficulty of some sort.  Depending on where this is in your own natal chart, would be where the emphasis is in your life.  It could bring a strengthening or structure to ‘YOU’ and who you are.  If you are an Aries, Cancer or Capricorn, this would have also affected you in a larger degree, or if you have planets in those signs.

(If you are Christian, and find this worrisome because it is astrology, then you don’t really know what Christ was teaching and you are missing out on the deeper meanings of scripture.  Read what Josephus has to say, or just think about the 12 tribes, the 12 stones in Aaron’s breastplate, the 12 sons of Jacob, 12 loaves of bread, 12 stones, the 12 major systems of the body, the 12 cranial nerves, the 12 months of the year, etc.)

Anyway,

Saturn being resistance (Ohm’s Law, is the measurement of resistance, and Om is the eternal sound of God;) He has been holding back the energy in Libra, removing the ability to move forward with much ease.  A restraining order so to speak.  He wants you to be sure, that you will move forward in a purer sense of who you are, newly disciplined (disciple) and ready with integrity.

Now Mars comes along and starts ‘ramming’ into the leaden shield of Saturn and pushing him, pushing back the resistance…..and this is the beginning of a new cycle of action together.

The last cycle began in July of 1982 (also in Libra but at 15*), so think back to that time frame and what you were doing, plans you were making into the fullness of that cycle which was in July of 1997. 

Now you are starting that cycle again, but with renewed clarity.  You will see over time, within months or sooner that you will begin to move forward again in a new way.  So pay attention to what you envision for yourself now.  Just remember, if you are thinking in terms of ‘things’ you are putting thought and energy into that which turns to dust.  Climb the ladder (Jacob’s) a bit higher.

Saturn will enter the sign of Scorpio on October 6, no longer in Libra…..the task master will visit the Scorpion to harness the truth and unbury what has been obscured.

Even though ArcAncient © blends and creams relieve pain, reduce swelling and inflammation, help you to sleep or focus and even assist you if you have the flu or pneumonia (I have healed myself twice from Pneumonia using Breathing Easy©, I go through 1 bottle in 2 days and it takes about a week.)

For me, the most amazing part, has always been the light that is found within using the light that is liquid in the essential (esse: To be or to exist) oils.

This act of anointing helps to find the Christ within, to truly become more Christ-like, and this is what we are each called to do.  If you add intention and purpose to anointing yourself, or client, you are ‘witnessing’ each other.

There is no special other than the call to do what is right.  You can be assured that all ArcAncient oils and blends are of the highest quality available, bar none.

Just remember, you use them and have your own stories of success of how they have helped you.  Share those, the more you share the more you help people in ways that we will never begin to imagine, since it is their own light that is being called to service.

So help people find their light, we need it now.

New classes will start at the end of October.  You don’t want to miss them, always new information and relationship to the body and working on the body.

All the best to all of you,

Gloria
