By the Light of the Super Moon  Dec 31 2009-Jan 1 2010

This epistle arrives in the nick of Full Moon time.  To have a Full Moon eclipse, symbolic of new beginnings, on a new year’s eve, which holds the hope of all things reborn, is a dream come true for astrologers and for someone like me, prone to excessive ceremonies at key junctures of change, like full moons and year end eves. Time  for lit candles and planting paper white bulbs indoors to mark this momentous shift at the end of 2009.  With this celestial event, I feel a renewed sense of hope and possibility for our planet. This year, winter solstice felt like the first day of spring to me…“twelve weeks till bluebirds” is my mantra.

One thought:  it’s as if the whole world went through some form of rehab this year, facing the shadow, confronting denial,  no place to hide, forced learning of new coping skills, and the healthy discipline born from paring down.  One result of this?  Remembering again the immense joy to be found in the simple pleasures of life.

I know now that when a pet dies, it is then you realize the reality of the balance and joy  that came from just a simple walk together.  I will never, ever, take that for granted again, by rushing through the task…I know Cola forgives me from her doggie bed in the heavens, but I cry when I remember any hint of hurry on my part…sigh.

Maybe, at the end of this year, you appreciate even more the miracle of warm food, a safe home, a good bed and  beloveds by your side. Maybe you now consciously  take a moment each day and pray that all people are as fortunate as you are. These kinds of prayers on a global scale have more power than we know.  I believe our combined intentions have actually softened the effects of some of the more cataclysmic potential that existed in 2009.

Did you learn it feels better to deal in the truth of things, and to just be openly honest with one another?  In our vulnerability, all can potentially be healed.  What amazing grace and gifts have come with the hardships of 2009.

So as we arrive at New Years Eve, Dec 31 ,  here are some astrological tidbits about this last Full Moon of 2009 (12:14 pm MST) for your rumination and reflection:

***It is not just a Full Moon which always brings the possibility  of illumination and awakening***

***It is also a Super Moon, when the Moon is closest to the Earth (Lunar perigee). This Moon will loom extra large in the heavens and is sure to amplify emotions to new heights and depths***

***And this is also a Lunar Eclipse (viewed mainly in the Eastern Hemisphere, the right brain of the world), which creates an energetic severing from old patterns, creating a portal of rebirth at the completion of the eclipse***

These astronomical facts speak for themselves.

It seems so much was ushered out of our world this year.  As you sit bundle by the bonfire, or before a simple shining candle,  may the Light of this Super Full Moon Eclipse, on the last day of this year of completions, bring some solace, and help you understand more fully why there was so much mass exodus on so many levels.  And may this radiant  reflective Light also illuminate the next small step you are ready to take on your path to renewal and return in the year of new beginnings, 2010.

Peace,

As this solar year draws to a close, I gratefully offer my Winter Solstice discounts (found at the end of this email) to old and new clients.  Thank you so much for supporting my work over the years. It is always an honor to decipher the patterns, talents, gifts, even challenges found in each unique star map. I feel particularly drawn to work with 14-30 year olds right now, perhaps because their wisdom is ripening early, partially because the world is in such need of  their evolutionary awareness.  An astrology chart is one way to mirror their talents and excellence back to them….so they know they are seen, understood, respected.

Discounts are as follows:

New clients: $160 (usually $180)

Updated charts for past clients: $140 (usually $150)

Gifting a new chart: $150    Gifting a returning client: $130

I have other types of chart you can inquire about too, like comparison charts,

or family readings, or even you and your pet comparison (a favorite of mine!)

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!
