The Signs of the Time — New and full moons tell us a lot about the month ahead. There is a Full Moon at 9 degrees of Aries on October 1. Aries is aggressive and very much a leader and fighter. With the elections on November 3, this Solar New Moon indicates that both sides will be fighting to the death to win not only the presidency but also the House and Senate. It is also an indication that all of us can find that inner strength to not play the victim, but rather to be the arbiter of our own politics and religion, and generally experience a turn-around from the fall-out from the Pandemic.

There will be a Full Moon at 23 degrees of Libra on October 16. This will be a time when all of us will make the choice for the November 3 election. There will be no hanging chads or indecisiveness in the electorate. All races will be decided by November 6 at the latest. Continue to be leery of big pieces of stuff and their partisan decisions. Attorney General William Barr recently compared staying at home to slavery. That is criminal and inexcusable behavior coming from the highest level of Justice. Mercury will go retrograde October 13 in the Sign of Virgo and will go direct on election-day November 3. Be extra careful making important decisions like buying or selling a house, signing contracts. You know the drill. Extra caution until Mercury is out of retrograde.

Monthly Insights for the Signs

Fire Signs

ARIES (March 19 – April 18)–With your ruling planet Mars still retrograde you may be well-advised to stay put and not go looking for trouble. Money matters at this time are sketchy at best. You were born in the fast lane so find a slower speed all this month. Also, the Sun in Libra is not doing you any favors as well. Sit down and learn to meditate. Your best bet this month is to take a back-seat to life and relax.

LEO (July 23 – August 22)–With Libra in the driver’s seat in October, you lions and lionesses are sure to feel free to roam as far as the Covid-19 will let you. With the mumbo-jumbo coming out of Washington continue to wear a mask and social distance everywhere you go. Since you are one of the curious cats in the Zodiac stay home and read the Kabbalah and the Vedas of the Vedanta Society.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20)–Your ruling planet Jupiter is now in direct motion at 17 degrees of Capricorn after being retrograde for a few months. Your opportunities are endless this month if you integrate the life lessons you’ve learned. Stay put. Wait for things to be revealed instead of figuring things out. I often refer to Sagittarius as God’s sign because your house rules spirituality and intuitive insights. Pay attention to what’s right in front of you.

Earth Signs

TAURUS (April 19 – May 20)–With Uranus in Taurus for a few more years, you might not want to act on any impulse that tickles your fancy, especially anything to do with money matters. October 3 Venus in Virgo—an ally of yours—will bless you as well. However, Mercury your ruling planet, retrograde in Scorpio in October will do you no favors. Stay with the hand life dealt you and wait for better aspects.

VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)–As long as you pay attention to Mercury retrograde in Scorpio on October 13 you’ll be dandy. October 3 Venus goes into Virgo so most of October you will be blessed with the good fortunes of wealth and well-wishes. Since you are more likely to trust your head than your heart, this aspect just may cause you to venture into Love land and Luck.

CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19)–Now that your ruling planet Saturn will go direct in motion on September 29 and Jupiter went direct in Capricorn on  September 13, your life is beginning to feel a lot more worth living. Venus in Virgo on October 3 will also aid and abet all areas of your life. No sign is put through the wringer like you Goats. But perseverance is your middle name.

Air Signs

GEMINI (May 21 – June 21)–With your ruling planet Mercury in Scorpio most of October you may want to watch your finances more carefully and wait to make a play on a stock or two at a later time. Your benefit is having the Sun in Libra, another compatible Air Sign.  Communication is your top card this month. Let it make you friends and let the tendency to gamble with your good-hard earned moola take a back seat.

LIBRA (September 23 – October 22)–It’s your time to rise and shine. Your ruling planet Venus will go into Libra on October 2. If you can deal effectively when Mercury goes retrograde you will have the most powerful and rewarding month all year. Count your blessings and don’t forget to ask 3 people every day, “What can I do for you?”

AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 17)–With the Sun now in Libra for 31 days that solar energy will certainly energize you. Your ruling planet Uranus is still in square position to Aquarius so you must continue to be aware of all the tricks that are hiding in the bushes to uproot you. No sign is more innately resonating to the Higher Waves of the Earth as are you. Be the writer and speaker and leader you were born to be.

Water Signs

CANCER (June 22 – July 22)–Since you are the Sign of the USA, your outlook for October is excellent although Libra and Cancer square one another. But there are other indicators that support the good times for you. With Cancer, the caution is always to control less and love more. Although Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn are opposing you, your due diligence overrides any roadblocks from the Goats.

SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)–Mercury retrograde on October 13 in Scorpio will push you to the pain of the crazy world we are living in. But no matter the sign of the retrograde all signs will be affected. For you Scorpios, you still have the help of your ruler Pluto being in Capricorn.  Many old relationships will come back into your life whether you want them or not. After Mercury is out of retrograde November 3 you have two surprises that will please you.

PISCES (February 18 – March 18)–This is not going to be the month you fly to the Moon or win the Lottery. Tend to your own business and leave the rest to the God up above. With Venus in Virgo October 3 you best monitor your money and stay away from any Spam Calls to get you to invest in any sure deal they have to offer. Your month is about drawing on the good karma you have been building up for the last few years. Be Patient. The Scorpio cycle will be more to your liking.

Featured Person of the Month

Kate Edwards Noonan and Butterflies

I Love Butterflies…

I am madly in love with butterflies!  My passion began three years ago when I heard that the Western Monarch butterfly was disappearing in alarming numbers. I decided to help their plight by planting pesticide-free milkweed and some butterfly-friendly nectar plants.  I observed and learned about their lifecycle from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly and by trial and error, I taught myself how to care for these magical creatures.  Over the past three years, I’ve raised and released over 160 butterflies and this year, I expanded my practice to include Anise Swallowtails too. The longer I continue on this path, the more it’s become a spiritual and transformational journey for me. The process that takes place within a few short weeks is mind-blowing in its complexity and awe-inspiring in its beauty.  I’ve seen a will to survive (even when wings are crushed within the chrysalis and there’s no chance of flight for the emerging butterfly) that has given me hope in our troubled times. I’m humbled by the spirit of these tiny miracles – the way they interact with each other is both meditative and joyous.  It’s been an honor to be both guardian and advocate for these gifts of nature and an affirmation that the creator is indeed divine.

Stay-at-Home Sedona Intensive™

Moments and Windstorms: Take Back Your Power

This ground-breaking book offers an in-depth journey through the author’s eye-opening addiction to alcohol and how he eventually got sober. Gaulden has written a number of books as well as being Founding Director of the Sedona Intensive, one of the country’s most highly regarded alternative personal growth programs.

The author shares all the ways God was leading and guiding him even when he was still drinking. “Most of us look at false paradigms to measure success in our lives. So much of where I went and the jobs I took helped me remember what I was to do as my life’s work.”

Gaulden’s book is divided into five parts. Each section explores different parts of his journey, incorporating all the places he’s been, the studies he’s made and the people he’s met. His point of view is that each client who sought his help made him a better person. At the end of the book, he has some daunting but hopeful words about the conditions of the planet Earth and what we need to do to survive as a race.

What Our Clients Are Saying About The Sedona Intensive

“The Sedona Intensive was a life changing experience for me. I had been searching for happiness and serenity for over 20 years and as a result of the Intensive I found that I was looking in all the wrong places. I not only experienced what happiness and serenity truly are but now understand the process needed to maintain and enhance that state of being. It doesn’t mean that I don’t experience the ups and downs of life but what it does mean is that those downs do not even come close to impacting me the way they used to. There is now a presence of mind that provides clarity and purpose that did not exist for me prior to the Intensive.

It is impossible to put a value on such a quality of life enhancing experience that the Sedona Intensive provides the person willing to do the work.It is by far the most significant thing I have done in my 62 years.

I came across a quote last week that summed up what I experienced and learned while attending the Sedona Intensive – ‘Once you stop clinging and let things be, you’ll be free’ -Bodhidharma (440ce – 528 ce), the Zen Teaching of Bodhidharma: A Bilingual Edition.”
