Hello There Mercury Retrograde, I See You Are Back!

This is the first Mercury Retrograde of 2020!

This Mercury retrograde is in creative compassionate Pisces and goes from February 17th-March 10th. 

Retrogrades happen a few times per year, when the planet Mercury slows down and appears to stop and move backward but it’s an optical illusion..there is movement forward.

We can look forward to two more Mercury Retrogrades this year. June 18th – July 12th and October 14th – November 3rd.

This rocky little planet is one of communication as in speaking, reading, listening, and negotiating. It’s also the planet of code, meaning computer code. So when this planet retrogrades, these areas (and more) often get chaotic and/or spin out of control. It’s wise to double and triple check documents before signing or if possible wait until the effects of the retrograde subside.

The message from mercury retrograde is slow down and deal with what is deep down. The stuff we stuff tends to come up when Mercury Retrogrades. This Pisces flavored Retrograde may reveal emotional patterns that could use a hug. 

And it just may help us clear the way so we can see why we came here in the first place! We all have something uniquely special to share. Sometimes we are afraid to reveal it because we are fearful of what other people will think.

Mercury Retrogrades help us clear our ‘stuff’ which helps us find our groove!

I’m using what could likely feel like Planetary PMS to help me move through my fear! It’s all about leaning into my soul and feeling my feelings.

And I’m spending tons of time with one of my best friends, my intuition!

Insights are so much louder when we allow our feelings to breathe! 

A few of my favorite things to do when Mercury is in Retrograde is…Clean my fridge, recycle magazines, and clean out drawers and under my bed. And…go for walks with my dog, take long baths and take a break from old-worn-out-thinking! 

Be sure to let your soul-light shine and know that the Universe has your back!

The Cosmos are adding Illumination to the 2020 Celebration!

A new year and a new decade is upon us and oh how the cosmos are adding illumination to the celebration! 

It is time to say goodbye to what was and hello to what is! 

I’ve long been intrigued by the effects of everything moon, planet and star related. As a medium I’m highly aware of the energy created by astrological shifts.

Though I’m not an astrologer, I am astute at reading energy and oh boy is there a lot of great current reading material compliments of the cosmos!

Think Eclipses. Think December 25th until January 10th.

Eclipses offer a progressive shift in perspective, but they also help us get back on track with our life plan. 

This is more than a New Years resolution, this is about making good for your soul! 

This means we will have some energetic assistance with meeting our goals and from more than one source. 

Saturn is the 6th planet from the sun and the Lord of Karma. Saturn also casts light on our shadows. 

Saturn it is said, is the inventor of social order. This planet brings meaning into our lives and helps us meet our life goals.

Saturn is made up of 94% hydrogen, 6% helium and small amounts of methane and ammonia. Most stars are made of hydrogen and helium. 

Saturn is the star of Astrology in 2020!

Saturn recently moved from Sagittarius to Capricorn and apparently Capricorn is a pretty big deal right now but for me, Saturn stands out. 

 

Saturn is a task-master so this get-it-done vibe can help us stand up and face what is. We can choose to be intimidated by Saturn’s weighty energy or we can inhale the power and make it our own. 

The stuff we stuff tends to get the best of us so it’s wise to un-stuff by facing our fears. 

We all have dreams. We tend to get in our own way in making them come true because we don’t want to face some big something. But once we do, watch out! 

If something makes your heart sing, it is singing for a reason. Allow your intuition to guide you and believe in yourself and your dreams.

You yourself added them to your life plan for a reason. Be reasonable and go for it!  

Be sure to tell yourself a story about how amazing you are. And then be that freely and purely. 

Allow the ones you love and the cosmos to help you bring forward what you love and most desire. 

Stay focused and unashamed. The good stuff can take time to grow. Be your full self, don’t judge and keep moving forward. Your soul will lead you, just stay in your own light and you are on your way!

I got into a fight with…………. Mercury Retrograde!

Despite my best efforts, I got into a fight with Mercury Retrograde!

It was early last week…

I had been minding my own business, coaching some fabulous clients, (they are all pretty fabulous BTW) meditating, surveying my own boundaries when out of the blue, I felt like crying. As a medium and highly empathic person, I recognize when I’m sensing and/or taking on someone’s feelings. I tightened my boundaries and again felt a waive of such sadness I wanted to cry. This was mine and it was weird. 

I felt saturated by heartache and feelings of overwhelm. They seemed to come out of thin air. Days before things in my life were flowing along with ease. 

But then I recalled…

Mercury went Retrograde October 31st and will stay there until November 20th.

Mad…I was really mad at Mercury for this awful retrograde. I had done so much to ground myself in preparation! The little shit planet, I thought to myself, really packs a punch when in retrograde! Something inside of me wanted to punch back. 

So I sat with my tears and listened to what they had to say. No judging, just listening and sort of swaying back and forth. And just like that my knowing-soul-self started to send symbols my way. You know, that calm, comforting, higher-knowing-soul-self we all have…I sparked it with some self-care. 

The symbols and pictures were all of me loving up my family including those who were in spirit, walking my dog, checking on relatives and friends who were in need of a boost and of course, of me at work. Not one was of me taking care of me. 

I found some lavender and salt, tossed them into the tub and took a warm bath in the middle of the day. Afterward I silently sat in front of a fire and listened to myself breathe.

Following what seemed like a few minutes but was really over an hour I did tons of Sun Salutations (yoga) drank a giant glass of cool, clean water and contentedly glanced around the room. 

I  looked at the view from my back windows, and the pillows on my living room sofa and began feeling such deep appreciation for everything in my life… I wanted to cry…but this time in a good way.

Next I got rid of some shoes that no longer worked for me, emptied my fridge of anything that looked like a science project, cleared out some old files on my computer, left messages for a few sweet friends I had not connected with lately and made a healthy dinner for me and mine. 

Who are you Mercury?

Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system and is all about Language—both  verbal AND written. Transporting of messages and just simply transporting is this planets sphere. Let us not forget electronic communication such as cell phones, computers etc.. they are shall we say, touched by Mercury Retrograde. 

It’s about COMMUNICATION! And while Mercury is in Retrograde, all things communication can tend to go WONKY!

Also, at this time the veil between worlds thins. A space between the material/physical and the mysterious opens up. My yearning for connection with loved ones in spirit was prompted by this thinning. 

Part of what had set me off was me missing my dad, aunt and grandparents. I know I find their love within me when I am loving; so this retrograde gave me a tremendous gift because it reminded me of that.

Can you relate to my experience? 

Insights at times like these come in louder and stronger and moods run hotter so the best thing to do during Mercury Retrograde is DO WHATEVER CALMS and SOOTHES.

Mercury Retrogrades, I shall say again, can make us feel a little wonky. It’s okay though, because it’s a great time to un-stuff our stuff and sublimely grow our intuition.

Here are some potent ways to advance your intuition!

Un-stuff your stuff!

Allow your Intuition to grow!

Three important things to remember…

May the voice of your intuition sing!

Have you been feeling an excitement in the air? Like you know something good is coming, you feel both elation and slightly on edge? When this happens I run through my trusty Space check list.

The questions on my checklist include: How do I feel and why? Is something feeling unresolved? How are my boundaries, am I tired, hungry or thirsty, is there a spirit trying to reach me?  If I’m all clear on the Space check list my mood shift is likely due to something cooking in the cosmos.

Where there are astrological shifts, there are emotional and spiritual shifts as well! So whether or not you’re interested in Astrology, the moon, the stars and the sun impacts your life.

Why not harvest some of that astrological energy?

There’s been a lot of talk recently about Uranus. Uranus is rather famous, thanks to astronomer Sir William Herschel who discovered the planet in March of 1781, on the 13th day, with the aid of a telescope! This was a big first so I thought it worth the mention.

In the past days, Uranus began its journey through Taurus, the sign of steadfastness and stability. The last time this occurred was in 1934! The seventh planet from the sun, Uranus is cold and windy and one of truth, emancipation, liberation and change.

It seems to me that this is an indication of an upcoming well-deserved modification!

Compare this time to a brilliant painting. A painting you created one adept brush stroke at a time. It’s nearly ready for display. The paint is drying and the remarkable, earthy colors are vibrant, your artistry electrifying.

You are now making space, one truth at a time, for your creation.

Breathe yourself back into wholeness. Listen to the sound of your breath then inhale your dreams and exhale them into your life. Think about what you wish for, play it out in your mind and absorb the good feelings around it.

Remember, your soul is wise and placed you here, right here for a reason.

Since the goal of the soul is to seek enlightenment, and change brings with it growth and therefore the offer of enlightenment, we need not fear what’s happening.

It’s a good time to allow the quiet and often still voice inside of you to get some air.

We are all connected energy.

 The Universe has your back.

So DANCE!

Remember to Breathe

Now show the world your SHINE!

Trust in your Higher Self. You’ve got this!

Words and Their POWer!

Did you know that simply feeling joy causes it to radiate throughout the Universe and therefore expands its power? Joy also heightens our potential to connect with those we love wherever they are, even with those we have never met.

It’s October 4th, 2017, just days after the tragic happenings in Las Vegas on the 1st.

If you sent even one single positive thought to the people of Las Vegas, they felt it.

Like you, I’ve sent love and light to all those touched by the tragic loss of lives. And like you, I’ve spoken out in some way.

There is great power in words.

             “Once you have read a book you care about, some part of it is always with you.” – Louis L’Amour

I wonder how many of us are aware of the energy behind our words and the power in them?

“A word can change a mind, a sentence can change a life..”~ Tom Kane

Do the words you write give you a lift or bring you down?

The words we speak (and write) and the thoughts we think, control our vibration. Our vibration is a magnet and everything that comes to us is steel. It’s the Universal Law of Attraction in action!

My father always said, “Think before you talk.”  He was likely trying to teach us respect. Unbeknownst to him, he was helping his children control the giant magnet within us all, our vibe!

A superb magnifier of vibration is..you guessed it..Social Media! So why not have some fun with it… Amplify your sweetest intentions!

Before you post, remember..whatever you put out..will come back so consciously SET YOUR ENERGY!

Here’s How…

When posting..before you press enter, let your intuition be your mentor. Check your Vibe! If you feel happy…Awesome, this is a fabulous time to post. If not..try this!

Take a deep breath and slowly and fully release it. Bring to mind someone or something that brings you joy. Bask in appreciation and allow the warmth of your thoughts to fill you up.

Since your vibration is a magnet and everything that comes to you is steel, ask yourself, What will the words in this post magnetize my way? If you like the answer and the feeling it evokes..Post!

It’s Happening!

I do believe that dreams come true and that we are absolutely the ones who make them happen. Do you? Do you think our intuition can help us get there? I do. So much so in fact that I wrote a book about it. And the book is one of my dreams come true!

It’s happening, it’s almost here! The Happy Medium: Speaking the Language of Intuition is so close to being in my hands..and yours!

That is if you want some help learning to drive your vibe UP so you can live in a place of abundance, acceptance and soul.

Upgrade Your Thoughts and Positively Electrify Your World

In elementary school, there’s much to learn about ABC and 123

And our education continues throughout our life.

Life is all about choices.

There’s so much to select from..because there is a true smorgasbord out there. We decide what foods to eat and when, what hair style appeals to us, where we wish to live, who our family of friends is and so on. And there’s a smorgasbord inside of us as well. We may not be able to choose our every thought but we certainly are able to select what we say.

We have choices about what we say to ourselves, about ourselves and to and about other people. Words have a great deal of power. In order to be an adept artisan in our own world, it would be wise to be aware of, and fashion our words carefully to create the kind of world we desire instead of dread. It’s as easy as ABC, 123!

We can upgrade our thoughts and positively electrify our world through the use of affirmations.

You may recognize the names of these wonderful affirmation-related authors..Florence Sovel Shinn, Louise Hay, Marianne Williamson, Robert Collier, and Grace Speare, but did you know that Greek philosophers such as Aristotle and Epictetus spoke about the influence of the spoken word as well?

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” Aristotle

“First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.” Epictetus

Louise L. Hay changed my life, or rather reading her book, “You Can Heal Your Life” did. (1984, Hay House)

She says much about the wisdom of approving of ourselves. “Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.” She includes much in this book about how we create our own reality. “Every thought I think is creating my future”.

Night after night, I would curl up on my sofa and read her affirmations. This helped me turn my thoughts toward what I wanted instead of what I feared. The results were honestly mind-blowing.  

I’ve included some great quotes about affirmations in this blog by some wonderful authors. You really can upgrade your thoughts and positively electrify your world through the use of affirmations.

Another of my absolute favorite authors is Florence Scovel Shinn. She was a pioneer in the world of affirmations. She said, “We cannot always control our thoughts, but we can control our words, and repetition impresses the subconscious, and we are then master of the situation.” She died in 1940 but left behind a number of phenomenal books such as “The Game of Life and How to Play It”, “Your Word Is Your Wand,” and “The Power of the Spoken Word.”

Positive affirmations are simply life affirming statements. Listen to the nagging voice in the back of your mind and you will hear a caboodle of negative affirmations. The message is typically critical and discrediting.

If we turn the thoughts we think and the words we say about ourselves in a positive direction we are affirming our good and fundamentally creating it.

A powerful affirmation is written in the present tense and is always positive.

“When you think something, you think in picture. You don’t think a thought in words. You think a picture that expresses your thought. Working with this picture will produce it into your experience.” Grace Speare

“It is always easier to believe than to deny. Our minds are naturally affirmative.”
John Burroughs

“Think and feel yourself there! To achieve any aim in life, you need to project the end-result. Think of the elation, the satisfaction, the joy! Carrying the ecstatic feeling will bring the desired goal into view.” Grace Speare

“Visualize this thing you want. See it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blueprint and begin.” Robert Collier

We can electrify our world through the use of affirmations!

Affirmations are life affirming statements and they generate transformation!
