JUNE 08!
14, 16, 5, 7
“Surf” the wave of change! |
|
There will be physical and mental tests; endurance is needed; more frequent communication is required; let go of any old grudges; bring kindness and forgiveness
into your home. |
|
|
 |
|
Go with the flow is the theme of the month. Forcing an outcome will not work at this time. The key is to be flexible, breath in and manifest harmony. Please don’t overburden your physical capacity; take it slow more frequently then usual.
Surprises will pop out of the blue – they will bring change in many areas of your life - your living environment, your career or relationship (people will come and go – physically and metaphorically). Smile and welcome these adventures. Be extra flexible. Without flexibility you will find yourself unhappy and confined. Let go! If your plans did not work out this week, move on to the next thing on your plat. Movement is the key, "Keep on movi'n".
Communicate! Share more of yourself! You may have to say the same message more then once. Also notice the inner chatter that is inhibiting your soul, the little voice will be awfully noisy this month. Notice it without any judgment.
In the area of commerce, it is a good bargaining cycle, negotiation time. New job, old job, new projects, buying, selling – bargain!
Be a conscious traveler! Travel light; be aware of your driving, walking, bicycling, etc…
Forgive yourself and others, for any wrongdoing, big or small. Tap into the reservoir of kindness – you will gain unprecedented value - some new information about yourself. Matters will slow down a bit after summer solstice – enjoy the pause.

MAY 08! 13 – say what you mean, mean what you say – Be your word! |
|
Structure and form, hard work, service and responsibility, projected from the heart – under neutrality of body mind and soul! |
|
|
|
|
The key to defuse any negativity this month is to be fun! Using experimentation and creativity, while following a process one step at a time. Life in May, may feel structured and rigid. Try to look at your created structures as a framework that gives you some sense (of the unknown), form and stability, yet not a rule to live by - these are structures for the soul to be contained.
Any form of meditation is important as a daily routine in order to maintain clarity of the mind – May’s vibrations will demand extra time for meditation – to cultivate neutrality, and let go of past life ghosts and obstacles. Neutrality – is our natural state of being; thrive on your peaceful mind. Be methodical and conservative – don’t push too hard, and yet let the flow come through your heart.
This is a good time to give something back, to serve, whether it is your local coop, political or social group, family, neighbors, spiritual community, consciously try to allocate some time for the activities that nurture you, and give something back.
Notice your thoughts and what comes out of your mouth with extra attention – because as they rise they will have a higher potential to manifest. The number 13 is Christ quality – sacrifice and manifestation of intention. Be compassionate to yourself and others.
Be aware of some fresh knowledge that will be available to you – it may change your out looked at the world– a good cycle to take time alone, examining the new information. Over all accent the positive – affirming the things you have and cherish in your life – gratitude can cultivate the peace you are longing for.

APRIL 08!
12 – follow and be followed - highly creative and social times. |
|
Initiate, take charge of your projects and dreams . . . peacefully! |
|
|
|
|
The 4th month rolls in with openness, joy and creativity – possibilities are in the air - not without some chaos and disorder. By the 2nd week of the month you should be in sync with the cosmic rhythms, flowing with the circumstances.
The traditional name of April is derived from the Latin word aperire, "to open,". And as we open up to the expansion of pranic flow, (or life force) – many new ideas will come our way.
The main influencing pattern is the triangle or 3 - which means constant movement – from being a witness to being engaged, and vice-versa. Social engagements and group activities will be the theme of the month. Try to pause between engagements, give yourself a break to cool off access fire from constant stimulation.
Issues of balance and cooperation in support of people and causes will rise (you may get “nutty” at times). Move beyond your self-doubts – channel your creativity and emotional energies to enjoy the process of discovery, bring positivity into your journey. Do not over think your emotions. Courage is needed to step out and share your sensitive-self in the world. Speak-up! Sing! Move! Let the entertainer in you come out. It is time to communicate, sharing ideas and acquire the capacity to listen.
There is a rise in political involvement, self-expression (some aggression) and communal reorganization (it is the “people’s” time). There are those who act peacefully, others who act with loud self-expression, and some that may act with aggression and fear-based reaction. Notice how you handle your needs! What are the means in which you make requests; do you take responsibility for your ideas and aspirations on a momentary basis?
Be gracious, and have fun!

MARCH 08!
Are you in unity or in duality – is the main inquiry of the month. |
|
The key is to experience people, circumstances, feelings … in a spiritual context. |
|
|
|
|
harmony and union with everyone and everything around you.
As the third month rolls out, issues of boundaries and security will rise. The seen vibrations are of connecting to higher realms of awareness – to spirit – to pure light – the attempt (the desire) to submit-to divine will.
The unseen vibrations this month are of duality vs. unity – it is all about cooperation vs. opposition.
This is the time to build a spirit of mutual support and camaraderie. It will accelerate the fulfillment of your expansion in many areas such as career, relationship, and finances. Cooperation through dialogue is the key – do not hold on to fear of the unknown – speak up, exchange ideas and try to communicate clearly (agreements and disagreements). Project a concept of yourself beyond your previous plateaus into new goals and accomplishments. Allow counsel and help of others – there is no room for a facade that you have all the answers.
Be pro active, make those decisions you were avoiding to make, the time is now – all within the sense of harmony and the notion that these decisions are for the higher wellness of all.
Surrender is the name of the game; to your true self, to the aspiration you’ve been holding to and never took action toward their fulfillment. Wake up from your dreams and commit your energy to the life you have and beyond, all through the lens of spirit. Go beyond the usual automatic mode of operating.
Creating peace in your environment is important this month; create safe boundaries that incorporate harmony. The key for these vibrations is to be open to new wisdom and information; Use your intelligence, give yourself time alone to sort things out; maintain safe space to meditate, to inquire, and be responsible for the process of inquiry. Enjoy the ride and laugh at your unreal expectations.

February 08! Within the first three weeks of the month you will shade away some ancient patterns, habits and attachments.
|

The last week of the month will open you up for mystery; you will revitalize your soul to welcome the path that will affect the rest of the year. |

The New Year started with a big bang – a rush to cultivate new opportunities and set a fresh tone for desired beginnings. With new beginnings come the need and the responsibility to reflect on past year and past lives experiences (the water element underneath the earth element). Completion cycle {9}, which started in January, will continue throughout the first three weeks of February.
Welcome to a major house cleaning – inside out (body mind and soul) – some hard concentrated work is needed, have some patience, it’s your own personal pilgrimage, be kind to yourself. Make sure you dwell in harmony, as the second month rolls out there are some waves of duality in the air – me and them – seek some advice and consoling from people you appreciate, notice places were you create borders between yourself and the whole, between you and your experiences.
As you surrender to the process and link to the whole – you will find yourself being acknowledged for your accomplishments in ways you have not perceived before (by your friends, family and colleagues). Notice the subtle ways others recognize your expertise, opinion, and mastery. It can be just a head gesture, a smile, or a written word.
People and matter will come and go – your inner sense of truth will crystallize – and some circumstances will not have a match to your currant reality – they will fall by the sideway – to let new aspirations
come in.
As the new moon rolls in (2.7.08) – you will start to notice the shift.
If you were thinking about courses or studies that you need to take on in order to reach a greater potential – commit to them. Do not sit there and wait, move through the areas that need to be cleared and restructured – in an earth rat year you will have to make an effort – make sure you start a rigorous exercise routine, as the year progress there will be more demands on your nervous system (number 10).
Be aware that your actions and focus will have a long-term effect and consequences. So in the completion cycle as the last week of February rolls out and new opportunities present themselves – choose your path
of actions from a sense of inner calling, a choice (vs. reaction).

2008 is a year that flows with energy, the energy of initiation and opportunities: business, finances and healing will be some of the main topics |
|
Issues of authority and decision-making will arise.Be grounded in reality—do not stay in the delusion of the ether.
Make choices and move with the flow. |
|
|
|
|
This is an upswing kind of year! Opportunities are awaiting ahead! Make sure you are making some decisions—any decision! This year is within an entrepreneurial cycle, and cultivating an executive mind is important. If you have been waiting to shift or expand your career, now is the time to make a move!
If you were waiting to sell or buy—a house, a car, a pet—do it! If you are wondering “Should I attempt this course or degree? Train to be a healer, or take an oil painting workshop?” then wonder no more, go for it!
8 is the number of the infinite, it is the movement of life force—two circles intertwining and moving within the infinite dynamic. The pranic body is the body of flow. Your willingness to surrender to the flow will be tested. Willingness to have the life force move you without the need to hold back or resist will be tested. Resisting the flow will create imbalance and struggle. Surrender means relinquishing the illusion of control and opening yourself up to abundance and the act of receiving.
This is a good year to get clear about your financial goals (especially through January and February).
Put your ducks in a row, balance your books!
Prana has to do with healing: this year has the potential for you to be healed from all sort of physical or mental conflicts. To do that, you need to take the initiative of committing yourself to a healing process (finding the right experts for you, the right exercise program or discipline, and then surrendering to the process).
2008 is influenced by the number 10, which is the radiant body, the sun. See where you can inspire others—you will be supported this year in taking more leadership initiatives and opportunities then you have taken before. Watch your nervous system, make sure you take the time to exercise and defuse any excess charge in your mind body and soul. Be flexible, willing to receive suggestions. And above all be generous and kind to others.

December! Get rid of your demons with grace and radiance. |
|
Jupiter’s interference will
grant you unexpected opportunities to shine
and show who you are. |
|
|
|
|
Cosmic forces are trying to bring you down. Your mission is to battle your ghosts and demons; they are subtle and cunning, and they often speak to you through your anger. Watch the intricacies of your psyche; try to locate the source within. Negativity has been there for a while, and it is time to sweep it away by any means necessary.
The completion of a 9 cycle, which began in November, is into its seventh and final week. Look for new sources of wisdom—within yourself. Have patience, build endurance. Notice the movement and details of people and objects; they will come and go more rapidly. Letting go is the name of the game. There is no room for attachments: love them and then bid them a final farewell.
Behind the scenes, Jupiter (the planet that represents growth, expansion, prosperity, good fortune, justice, and higher consciousness) is mixing its potion. Notice your ability to expand in the face of fear. It is all about rising to where you may fully express yourself. Notice the ghosts, but do not listen to them.
Dealing with unfinished business can be sometimes frustrating. The first three weeks in December will provide you with plenty of opportunities to take your “house cleaning” efforts to another level of mastery, as your ghosts will tempt you to act out of smallness (vs. generosity). Clear out your physical space, clear out your mental space, and choose your social company carefully. People who keep you in the same familiar spot will disappear—if only you can recognize your limitations as self-imposed. Emotions will arise; try to notice your emotional vibration with attention instead of reaction. A good way to diffuse emotional baggage is service: find a form of giving yourself away and giving something back to the world.
As we approach a yearly completion, let go of what constrains you: this is your last chance to collect the vibrations of yourself that are ready to come out. Winter solstice will be the cutoff date for taping into a week of radiance (which happens to be the last week in December). New ways of sharing yourself with the world will start to form. During that week, spend time outdoors to get some fresh air and sun (if it grants you her presence). Let inspiration lead the way, and inspire others. Thank yourself, and thank others along the shared journey.

The 9th dimension of being Human |
|
November: honoring the subtleties, diving into the unknown, cultivating divine intuition--this is a long waited cycle of completion and mastery. |
|
|
|
|
After our boost in financial challenges, business, purpose and healing in October, we are ready to complete loose ends and unfinished business. 9 is a cycle that requires patience and some endurance so we can change inside-out to be ready for a new start or to achieve the next level of growth. This is a time of both settling-in and processing new ideas and notions.
It is a great time to master unfinished business and practices (9 is perfection). Good period to get in tune with the subtleties of the universe. Mastery of the self – it is a growth period – may be challenging at times – try to take it as your next step of expansion. 9 can be experienced as restless period – endurance is a must. Try to complete unfinished matters rather than start new initiatives (it is not the best times to start new projects – wait for mid-December)
Feminine influences are on the rise; welcome and trust your intuition.
Like an 8 cycle, a 9 cycle may be a time of recognition – in a deeper way – recognizing the subtleties within us as well as being known by others. The activities and the results (or reactions) we created in October will be assessed and configured this month. What no longer serves us will go away and elements of expansion and growth will push us ahead. Manifestation may come in many forms (professional, relationship, living situation…) This 9 cycle is a longer one and will continue through the third week of December. Pay attention to everything around you even if you feel sloppy at times.
Try to be tuned into every day subtleties – mastering the mysteries of life. Notice details you have not paid any attention to before such as the people who cross your path, your environment, your form of speech and form of thought.
In a completion cycle there may be a tendency to react out of fear of the unknown. Trust the mystic flow. The unknown has greater plans of mastery and expansion then one can even imagine (it is the subtle body that is moved by collective subtleties). Watch your reactions as they rise – increase your meditation time (in any form). With fear comes Jealousy – notice that – focus on your journey your mystery in mastery – avoid the tendency to compare. Sense of greater purpose will rise – the mind will sarch for specific goals to get attached to (don’t pay attention to that tendency).
With 18 as a significant number – there will be more mutual carrying in the air – 18 is the compassion and vulnerability of what it is to be human. Trust the universal love that is far more pronounced this time and is far more real then you can perceive (especially in the positive pole where 9 stands for generosity and altruism).
The month is “packaged” in spiritual mastery – try to stick to the higher vibrations focusing on the higher good and higher will. In surrender there is no duality. When a moment of conflict arises ask the divine, “what would you like me to do?” and listen – be yourself.

8 PRANA |
|
OCTOBER 07
moved by Prana. Financially auspicious. Acknowledgment is needed as well as healing. |
|
|
|
|
We cleared some emotional debris in September. October is here with a flow of encouragement and fresh breath of autumn. The main challenge this month is to breath fully as the universe provide us with loads of tasks and goals to accomplish. Opportunities require courage to take risks and there will be plenty of them.
In Latin octo means "eight," reflecting the fact that October was the eighth month in the Roman calendar – we are in sync with the ancient rhythms.
8 is the dominant influence this month. It is about infinite energy, prana. Vitality can be expressed in healing (physical and spiritual) and in matter. Life force affects the energetic level in the flash and the opportunities that comes our way – it can manifest in money, accomplishments, call to lead the way (leadership), while maintaining open heart.
This month will bring some financial opportunities – as well as spiritual opportunities and… some challenges in those areas. It is a good time to sort out financial goals (personal finances in general), good entrepreneurial cycle – of figuring out new business endeavors – and possibilities
Use your executive mind to make decisions and follow through (8 is the flow of making decisions).
Issues of recognition and acknowledgement will rise at home and work, and in the same token issues of control and power will surface. Breath in and try to see how much you have accomplished this year – you will be surprised. You may be promoted this month or be rewarded in some unexpected way (at work or in your personal arena).
Eight has to do with healing and since it is a fast paced month, watch your tendencies to take it all on yourself, “all or nothing” may be the motto at times - be flexible. Health issues may rise – especially in areas that you have been neglecting. Eight represents fearlessness – October will bring opportunities to overcome old fears – you will recognize fears that kept you from expending in life – the prana is about movement and expansion – notice in your breath and the notion of expansion vs contraction.
At this time, as possibilities coming your way, you will meet people of significance – business partners and affiliates, and as we break through old fears we will be able to take charge and make clear decisions in regard to business, finances and health. The radiant body or ten is an influencing number this month – so beside breathing – or doing activities that will increase air and blood circulation – make sure you rest well and maintain a balanced nervous system. Listen to others point of view and their roll as leaders (try it on).
The first two weeks in October will be a bit chaotic in term of business and social activity – it will be balanced in the second half by the light of the new moon – creating much more grounded circumstances and real accomplishments.
Again notice your breath – breath much – and pause.

The Aura |
|
September 07 Emotional release is expected:
work-up a good sweat often this month, do not over-think your emotions, try not to blame people around you, be compassionate to yourself and others. |
|
|
 |
|
Was August intense and busy or what? Social gatherings, mingling, love, fighting, and above all taking care of each other were some of the main themes. Come September it is time to down shift and take care of own individual needs (high intensity is still guaranteed).
September this year is within the numeric cycle of 7 (it is “septem”, the seventh month in the pre Gregorian calendar). The vibrations of 7 are trust, music (voice), (in) knowing, wisdom, sense of happiness, the intellect and the power to uplift, on the negative pole it can bring the feelings of unhappiness, blame, aloofness, being over critical and a sense of being alone (when the aura is small it means we are mainly operating via our ego). Since the numeric monthly cycle is echoing the yearly vibrations it has double intensity: double water, which means emotions will flow. The experience can manifest itself as a notion of trying to figure out everyone and everything; this kind of intensity can cause mental and physical reactions.
Please do not over-think and over-strategize your moves and motivations. It is a good time to sort things out without being too critical (of yourself and others). Internal analysis sometimes leads to finger-pointing and blaming. Be a master of mending connections, weaving the path to new and old relationships. Schedule time for internal process of the mind. Try not to hold grudges against people you rubbed the wrong way, extract the kindness you have and forgive.
This month is an excellent time to study something new or take a retreat. Some internal work is needed, it doesn’t mean that you need to be alone, it means be responsible for your own internal process: give yourself the space and time to tap into the reservoir of unconditional love and light. Any inner work will do – yoga, long hikes, meditation, canoeing – it will elevate your spirit and get you focused in pursuing your heart’s desires. It is a good time to gain some new wisdom, acquire new information (7 is wisdom or knowledge). Above all, trust the planetary scheme.
As the new moon arrives around Sept 13, the high vibration of astral mastery will be effecting many people. The new moon will be a good time to get together to share music and spoken word. Take yourself (and others) to performances, gatherings and events that involve music, singing, chanting, public reading.
Fall equinox will seal it all in new inspirations and renewed connections (hopefully without any bruises) granting the motivation to get out there and make life better for you and others.

The month of AugustDwelling comfortably in the unknown,surrounded by loved ones.Watch your immune system!Take action with legal and business matters!And above all use your intuition. |

Congratulations, we crossed the threshold of July (which was numeric cycle of 5) – to arrive at this time in a month influenced by the numeric cycle of 6 (appropriately enough August originally named Sextilis in Latin, because it was the sixth month in the ancient Roman calendar). Where in July we endured rapid movement of events, changes, and some adventures, August is marked by social activity, rolls of fairness and justice, all wrapped in trusting our vision and intuition.
As the eighth month of the Gregorian Calendar rolls out, think of your breathing – breath work is extremely important this month as we reorient toward our relationships with friends, family, and community. Sacrifice may be needed as others will need your time and energy. Acceptance and patience will be required.
6 is the arc line, the halo (element of light), the seat of intuition, the place were the two brain hemispheres get balanced, called the spirit mind. In balance, we can have a choice based on our deepest notion. Tapping into unknown waters is about taking a risk, especially in relating and exchanging spirit with others. Yet as we tap into our intuition instead of our fears, which has to do with taking a chance, we will experience ease with the unknown.
August is a good cycle to be involved in our communities, deepen our connections, and deepen social and political involvement. If you feel disconnected, initiate yourself to connect with yourself and others. Try not to compare yourself to others and use your intuition versus your standards and unrealistic ideals.
The physical home, and home responsibilities will require your attention this month. See what actions can you take to make your home more hospitable and safe place. 6 stands for beauty – inner and outer. What will make you feel more beautiful? What actions will you take to make your environment beautiful, and what ways can you adopt to see the hidden beauty in your life?
Taking risks require acts of protection and wisdom to trust the unknown. See what actions you need to take to feel safe. Maybe looking into neglected legal matters - your insurance policy, your car – is it safe? Health matters will have to be reassessed (6 represents the immune system) – yearly checkup? Dental care? Spend sometime with friends and family, do what ever it takes to be nurtured.
The number 8 is an influencing number this month. New business ideas will pop up mainly in the 2nd half of August, your social activities will bring in some business opportunities. As you see your life goals taking shape this month use your divine discrimination and the consul of others in making your decisions. Take chances, use your trust to see the whole picture in a fair and just manner, watch for other people reactions and maintain your own physical ability to be neutral.

The Physical Body

Watch the tendencies to analyze everything, notice your
emotions as they rise, communication is essential this time, be flexible and fluid as plans and ideas will change on a
daily basis.
|
|
|
 |

In the seen vibrations of the material world July is a seven-month over a seven year – what does that mean? It can be very internal, analytical as well as quite emotional time. Seven is the element of water – fluidity, mood swings and emotions will surface to the foreground this month (mainly in the first two weeks). As emotion rises, just notice them with no judgment or opinion. It is a good time to do some internal work – meditation; self-inquiry retreat; or couple of days in nature, camping. It is essential to do some physical activity that will encourage the body to sweat – release water and toxins, especially as the moon is weaning. As emotions rise – issues of trust will surface. Notice first your tendencies not to trust yourself , notice your self guessing, rethinking, intellectualizing over your own ideas, initiatives and concerns (7 represents inner wisdom and in July you will need to go deeper to find it).
The 2nd half of the month will be somewhat more fluid (especially after the 11) – 7 is the influence number this month as well – music is seven – go out to some musical performances, do some chanting – it will uplift you and elevate your spirit.
In the unseen vibrations July is in a 5 cycle (interesting side note - previously July, was called Quintilis in Latin, since it was the fifth month in the ancient Roman calendar). A 5 month is a month of change, sometimes unexpected, it is a good time this month to explore change – job, career, residency – it can be experienced at times as a restless period. The change needs to be well thought through – if change must be implemented do it in the 2nd half of the month – 5 is a cycle for opportunities and growth. It is a good month for commerce and travel – particularly with a 7 as an influencing number.
On a 5-month cycle one need to be flexible – rigidity can lead to health issues, the number 14 is present this month – it is a significant number that represents physical or mental confinement – the key is to be flexible, not to rush, and have the time to enjoy this time of the year. If certain circumstances create confinement or discomfort – retreat. Be mindful regarding your communication – speak up and yet weigh your words and messages this month (5 is the teacher archetype – communication and teaching).
A sense of adventure in a 5 cicle month is important. It is a month of new discoveries, experiences, growth and expansion. As well as a month of maintaining and expanding physical capacity (5 is the physical body).
5 has to do with endurance as well, patience is needed within the movement of rapid change – be aware who you invite into your physical space – use your circle of friends and colleagues for advice.
Bringing everything to nothingness as change move through is important – cultivating – recognizing that other forces are at play. Trust is the key to initiate new moves as change comes - be grateful for unseen opportunities – they are coming in August.

Cultivating neutrality and balance, putting new initiatives and ideas into time based structure and form, serving others, maintaining an open mind.
This June is within a 4 numeric cycle (influenced by the number 6). In a4 cycle there is a need for structure, order and form. Be aware of a tendency to be rigid (4 is a square), by consciously creating a balance between heart and mind.
Rigidity means - we can over structure and organize our flow of thoughts, actions and movement – limiting the possibilities of natural expression and progression. This is a time when we will need to put in hard work, be practical and focused in order to achieve new aspirations, goals and ideas that were generated in previous months. It is a good month to regroup – solidify what is important in your life and put matters into milestones and to-do lists (after polishing projects and clearing
up loose ends).
Some of the challenges in June will be to find inspiration and depth in the mundane matters we all share, such as home chores and work dynamics –look for the extraordinary in every action we take. There will be some challenges in following processes through, and being thorough with initiatives and actions.
Notice what comes out of your mouth this month – we literally cast our experiences through our words. 13 is an influencing number in June, and represents our manifestation powers through thoughts and spoken words (we are the source for our darkness and lightness). Watch the tendencies to react, try to maintain neutrality even in unfavorable circumstances.
This equanimity may be difficult to maintain during the first two week in June – thankfully after the 17th we will feel less reactive.
Our neutrality and organizational skills will be affected by the number 6th – which represents community (society), justice, beauty, the home, family, intuition, protection, and power of prayer.
With the influence of 6, pay close attention to your intuition, make sure you are available to others (your loved ones and to your community), notice what is sacred and truthful to you.
As the earth’s axis tilts toward the sun in the 2nd half of the month – a greater sense of balance will be available to us. Harmony and balance are necessary this month. Use your divine discrimination and intuition in making decisions; be open to the counsel of others if necessary. It will be helpful to create discipline of self-awareness to reach your goals while maintaining harmony.

Social engagements – food - some travel – deeper sense of communication.
The month may have been named for the Greek goddess Maia, who was identified with the Roman goddess of fertility, Bona Dea, whose festival was held in May.
May is ruled by the number 3 – (3 represents Jupiter – lord of opportunities and manifestations) this month is effected by tight social schedule – watch some tendencies to be the center of attention (part of our insecure self) - the need to be appreciated will rise this month- do something special for yourself – it is a good time to nurture the self and develop self confidence – look at areas in your life were you felt insecure in the past and step out. Be mindful regarding your energy – schedule times to retreat and relax (too many social commitments can drain our energy).
Drama may be part of the creative mind (3 is the archetype of the entertainer) – watch your tendencies to over react this month. New ideas are sipping in, new possibilities, and joy – be aware of these new ideas pay attention to notions that may seem to you insignificant. (3 is the positive mind – seeing possibilities and opportunities in any given situation). Great time to have dinner parties and pot-lucks, cook something up for the people around you, or venture out to explore new cusine (3=food – notice the sudden festivities around us – on personal and global level).
The significant number 12 appears as well this month, it represents our ability to care for and lead others. Observe the tendencies to disconnect or separate from others (we are the other).
The number 5 influences May. It represents change, the need for flexibility, and the power of clear communication (the ability to communicate powerfully and creatively). No wonder it is a month that intimacy and connectivity is one of its major themes. The 5th Chakra or Vishuda (purification) is ruled by our ability to voice the truth. As you get to know the people around you on a deeper level, be mindful of your communication this month. On the physical plane – notice the ear, nose, throat and shoulder areas – on psychological level, notice your reactive mind to different circumstances and people.
Stop and breath more frequently this month – especially before you about to say something – before moving your body, exercising, jumping or driving – pause for a moment – notice your connection to your feet and the earth (5 is the physical body) – moving or communicating too abruptly may cause injury (to you or others).
Give yourself the time to be social, help others. Give yourself the time to reflect on your new social circles and the abundance of new ideas and possibilities – nurture your inner joy.

Happy spring, the air brings fresh initiatives and intentions but….
Maintaining a focus, following a process, servicing others – are some of the themes this month.
April brings a bland of unique energies into play. The 4th months brings the need for structure and form – the need to create stability. The last week in March brought in a burst of creative energy, new initiatives and commitments. As April rolls, the need for clarity and structure rises – some of us will say “how can I put my new ideas and commitments into reality?
We may feel the need for a foundation mixed in with creative and expressive energy – on the positive side it brings a blend of strength, sensitivity and creativity.
On the shadow side when we are off balance, initiatives without a structure can look like a mix of ongoing frustrations. The challenge is to focus on the process – remember that every goal needs to be broken into manageable steps, and as we accomplish one step after the other the energy of accomplishment will rise and we will find ourselves more focused and vital.
Through April we are governed by the number 11 (spiritual mastery) – it can bring an awareness of high ideas, idealism and a sense or a mission for mastery (we may feel the need to pick up again a craft that we stopped practicing, or go deeper into a study that we carried for a while). With the influence of 4, which represents structure and form, we need to cultivate flexibility and neutrality – an ability to go with the flow of things rather then getting attached to the notion that everything needs to match our high ideals (4 is a square – so watch out for unwanted rigidity).
When high idealism does not match our momentary reality we may be frustrated and our patience will be tested. The key in this kind of situation (this month) is to appreciate every incident, circumstance and experience, and to follow small manageable steps in the process, break down your goals and tasks, and find a balance between heart and mind. Maintaining flexibility may mean – more physical activity as well as extensive mental release such as meditation, yoga, running, hiking, taking time to regain the balance of non judgmental state of mind (as 4 represents neutrality).
11 has to do (as well) with the other, our intimate relationships, co-workers, family and friends, in the negative pole it may raise conflicts and some reactions – disconnectedness, and competition – notice the tendencies to create polarity of me vs. them, when duality rises – ask yourself “what am I gaining here?” Servicing others (4 represents service) and seeing yourself in others is needed. As we taking the time to set milestones for our desires and goals – make sure to set aside time to give back something to the community, and to serve others.
Spring time energy need to be harnessed into balanced structure and form – we all going to benefit from non reactive state of mind.
