Spiritual Insights
Astrology combines science and spirituality and reveals the cycles within our Universe as well as in our own lives. It is a privilege and honor to study the symbols of the vast knowledge of our universe. Astrology will gain prominence as our world grows in consciousness because this is the science of life. This is the knowledge that gives us sight for the truth.
Are we coming upon the end of times as the Mayan calendar suggests? I cannot say for sure but I do know that Armageddon has been predicted so many times before, no one can take this seriously. There will always be a future date that is feared as the new Armageddon. And once we reach the 2012 date a new date of destruction will be posted to look forward to. All religions speak of the end of times.
One thing for sure is when there is overpopulation there does need to be a cleansing. This takes place with every species in the world. The earth will create balance when there is an imbalance. So although there will always be major catastrophic events such as earthquakes and hurricanes this does not mean the entire world will come to an end. According to the ages of mankind the beginning of the 26,000 year cycle began only 2,000 years ago. It is believed that the closer our galaxy gets to the Galactic Center, the higher the consciousness becomes on our planet. It is estimated that the point of 13,000 years from the beginning of this cycle will be the time we are closest to the Galactic Center. So it is half way through this entire cycle that we are closest to the Galactic Center. Then we will revert back to a more ignorant time. So, at least we are in the ascending cycle towards the point of enlightenment. There are about 11,000 more years before we reach this time of enlightenment.
This is all very scientific and mathematical. This makes sense to us with our rational thinking mind concerning our physical reality. Does any of this pertain to our non-physical world? What happens to the universe with the stars and galaxies when we die? Is all this merely an illusion? Do we lose our thinking mind and physical reality as we pass to the other side? I cannot tell you the answer to this, but I do know there are other worlds and dimensions that scientist dispute. Many scientists confirm that there are other dimensions but this is beyond our limited means of science. Many cultures have made great discoveries through altered states of consciousness. Shamans of all cultures claim to have visited different dimensions and planets through altered states of consciousness. These altered states of consciousness are achieved through meditation or drugs. Once you have seen this altered open state of consciousness you are never the same. All who have achieved this understand the meaning of Unity and loss of the ego. My most important message here is to let go of the ego and understand we are one, and the world is seeking a place of Unity. This is awareness and God consciousness. This is the ultimate goal of our evolution and experience here on this planet earth.
This is a lead into what we are to expect for the next few years before we reach the next expected end of times, the end of the Mayan calendar December 21st 2012. The Mayans were the most advanced time keepers in ancient times. Their exceptional ability to track time and astronomical positions was so advanced, scholars believe they may have had help from extraterrestrials or came upon this advanced knowledge through shamanistic visions.
I personally do not believe it is the end of our world but I do of course think it means a radical shift as we have been already experiencing. It is a time of spiritual awakenings and a shift in awareness and higher consciousness. The world as we know it will transform.
Leading into this Fall things become more intense. Be prepared for the final crash with the housing markets. The public is full of fear and is refusing to spend money. This fear of lack will do nothing but create more lack. Money makes the world go around. As people spend money businesses prosper and grow but with continual talk of a recession/repression people stay home and refuse to be prosperous. I know so many people whose income has not changed but their investments and stocks have gone down so they believe they have lost their savings. This is not reality, for the cycle will always shift and go up at a later date. My point is the people are making this time in space worse creating the illusion of lack and loss.
As an astrologer for 30 years I have foreseen very difficult aspects in my own chart and life on the horizon and tried numerous ways to outwit the stars. I may have endured and gotten through them but never have I avoided them completely. Difficult aspects do create challenges and major problems. I do think being prepared is much better than being hit without a clue. But I believe as an astrologer the very best advantage and what keeps me going through the most difficult times is to know when it will get better. Bad cycles do not last forever and it is gives us strength to know when things will improve.
I do have clients who have done mantras during the most difficult times astrologically and averted major difficulty indicated in their charts. I have done yajnas during these times, but have not had the positive experiences of those who have done the mantras for long durations. I have not been as disciplined as some of the devotees that have done massive amounts of mantras to shift the energy. You see I believe we must be vested enough to do the work ourselves by investing the time to shift our own consciousness.
Then again, we cannot always perceive the bad times as bad. There is always something meaningful in the most difficult situations even if we cannot see it at the time. Difficult situations usually have a silver lining and produce our greatest growth. It generally becomes a blessing in disguise. We cannot see the big picture and when we don’t get what we want we think it is the worst thing that could happen to us, but usually it is the best thing for us. EVERYTHING is happening for our growth no matter how it appears to us at the time. We must be grateful for this divine intervention and grace.
The end of July, Jupiter will be back in Capricorn the sign of debilitation. Additionally, it is in the same sign as Rahu and there will be a series of eclipses again, this will lead to more intense financial problems in our economy. This is the most devastating year financially. Everything that breaks down in the next few years is actually due to the initial blasts of this year. The end results which may seem worse are really due to the fall out of this year 2009. The fall out may appear worse because it is the aftermath that is most difficult. To sum up this Fall, there will more difficulty financially with banks, housing, and the stock market will plummet causing extreme fear. But most difficult of all will be the liability of another attack on our land. It looks like a time of extremes and loss.
Mars will turn retrograde December 20th in the sign of Cancer. Mars is debilitated in Cancer indicating great stress and problems concerning issues of anger on a personal level, and the probability of war next year on a massive level. Mars is weak and problematic in the sign of Cancer. Mars will remain in Cancer till May 26th 2010. So Mars is in Cancer from October 2009 through May 2010.
Throughout 2010 there is a developing grand mutable cross that will turn the world upside down. This is essentially the shift the Mayans were referring to. The world cannot be the same after the effects of these planetary aspects. The summer of 2010 will be extreme. May through November 2010 Jupiter will be in Pisces. At this time Jupiter will be involved in the grand cross. July 30, 2010 Mars will conjunct Saturn exactly opposing Uranus. Pluto is conjunct Rahu opposing Ketu squaring Saturn/Mars in Virgo, and Uranus/Jupiter and the Moon in Pisces. This is harsh, intense and difficult. I don’t think I can recall a time of such extreme aspects. This is the culmination point of the extremes to come.
There will still be intensity in 2011 but the aftermath of 2010 cannot be cleaned up for a number of years to come. If consciousness and spirituality doesn’t become our focus, then this world will be a miserable place. I believe the year of 2012 is a new awakening. The planetary aspects that year are not nearly as volatile or intense as those of 2010 and 2011.
On December 21st 2012 on the winter solstice according to the Mayans the Sun will align exactly longitude and latitude with the Galactic Center. From my calculations the most significant aspects are the quincunxes between Saturn and Jupiter and Pluto. There is an exact yod formed with Pluto in the focal point of the yod. The yod is said to be the finger of God. This indicates a shift and change within humanity. This means there is a shift in humanity and there is no choice in this matter, things have to change. I believe this means peace after so much discord and loss. The dust begins to settle and the world has come through a most turbulent time ready for peace and Unity.
Planetary Predictions
June is a good month to get new things started. There is a new spark of energy back in the affairs of the world. Mars is in the sign of Aries where it has the most energy. Mars is conjunct Venus and trine Saturn in fire signs indicating inspiration and energy to promote positive events that improve our world.
Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron are exactly conjunct in Aquarius indicating a new revival and interest in healing, spirituality, and in metaphysics, particularly astrology. Chiron in mythology was the healer and astrologer, so this promotes all forms of healing and astrology. Minds are opening, therefore you can expect some major breakthroughs in medicine and healing.
Unusual weather and severe winds can cause destruction during this month. The new Moon in Ardra will produce extremes that are unpredictable. Tornadoes and floods can cause a lot of destruction.
Strong aspects to Uranus spark radical changes in the stock market. The stock market is experiencing extreme highs and lows. The markets will be volatile through the entire year, but the extremes will be especially volatile.

06/05/2009
Sun square Saturn will cause some setbacks initially. It is the pressure that creates the need for a shift and a breakthrough which will be produced and developed latter in this month. We have outgrown our laws producing a desperate need to change to accommodate the changing times.
06/07/2009
Full Moon 22 degrees Scorpio creates a T square between the Sun and Moon with Saturn at the apex. This is indicating the disruption between the views of the people and the leadership of the world. The world is going through a birthing crisis.
06/09th-10th/2009
Mercury square Neptune and Jupiter will cause mental confusion. This is not a good day to sign contracts or go on a trip. Be aware that there can be some misunderstandings due to lack of information now. Wait a few days and you will get the answers that are currently obscured from your mind.
06/15/2009
Jupiter turns retrograde 3 Aquarius, Jupiter retrograde will indicate new trends in financial spending. Jupiter will return to the Capricorn July 30th. Since Jupiter is debilitated in Capricorn when it becomes retrograde it reverses to its exalted state. Note the change for the better in the financial markets. Jupiter will be retrograde through October indicating a major shift in the economy. Retrograde planets emphasize the areas they rule during this time. New ideas and plans to resolve the economic woes will be instigated. But, there are other planetary aspects that add to the mounting pressures and problems our world and economy are experiencing now.
06/17/2009
Sun square Uranus and trine Jupiter instills new ideas that open minds to a new level of thinking and awareness. This is the beginning of the breakdown of limited views and thinking that has held our world back.
The new Moon on June 22nd will create a T-square with Pluto and Uranus. The Sun is opposed Pluto and both square Uranus. Tension is building that will shift ideas and create new trends for new businesses in the future. It forces people to think outside the box creating new inventions for new ways and trends in energy developments. This can be a time of new breakthroughs.
06/23/2009
Sun opposed Pluto instills the fear of war and conflict in the world. Leaders are at odds and cannot rationalize with one another. This is the beginning of a series of threats that will mount into chaos and war in the future.

From My Book, "Awaken to the Power Within You"

“ When all is One and One is All”
Stairway to Heaven
Led Zeppelin
The message is always the same: we are here to learn who we really are. We on a path to understand we already have and are everything we keep searching for, and we will awaken to the reality that this was all an illusion or a dream. We are a part of God and will be one with God, all that was and ever will be. There will be no suffering, ignorance, sadness, or lack of security; for all our fears are gone, and we are all-knowing. Will we get bored with this total peace and bliss? Maybe! Then the entire chaos is created again till we find our way back once again. This is the play of the Universe.
