Forecast for June 2019
The overarching pattern of the forecast for June suggests to me that the focus is on prosperity. Not necessarily on having it, but on paying attention, planing, evaluating your relationship to it, and holding space for it. If you do have it, be careful, conscious, and deliberate in how you use it. If you’re working…
Taking your personal power back (from the June Newsletter)
As we approach the Summer Solstice, it is time to take your power back. Where have you given it away? Where have you covered up your Truth? Where have you allowed yourself to be disempowered? The Truth is that you are a cell in the Body Divine, as magickal as the stars and the flowers.You…
