Attracting What You Love

Yesterday was a good day astrologically speaking. There were no exact hard, classical, aspects. (Classical aspects are the basic aspects used by traditional astrologers. They are the conjunction, sextile, square, trine, opposition, parallel, and sometimes the inconjunct, also know as the quincunx.) For a look at the current transits go to my Weekly Planets and Daily Moon Forecast.

I felt the good energy when I started my day, it felt wonderful. Mars is sextile Jupiter, and one of the cross quarter, Lammas, had arrived. I got a lot done, did a lot of writing, and researching, and enjoyed every minute.

Before I left to see my clients, as I was gazing out at a beautiful blue sky, I light, cool breeze, with a hint of fall. Fall in New England is beautiful, with glorious breezes, clean fresh air, and high puffy white clouds. As the breeze shifts through the trees, the leaves sparkle, and make soft rustling noises, like the sound of crinkling paper.

The sky was so clear and blue, but where are the large puffy white clouds I love? The summer sky has been rather flat, either hazy blue, overcast, or filled with huge dark thunder clouds. I don't remember seeing any of my favorite cloud shapes all summer.

I had a longing to see these playful shapes, and thought about upcoming fall. It will be here soon with brilliant blue skies, and huge, dazzling, white clouds.

As I was driving to the healing center where I see my clients, I looked at the sky, and was startled. Wow! Everywhere I looked I saw high, puffy white clouds in all shapes and sizes, the first I've seen all summer.

Did I create them? Did the Universe say, let's grant her cosmic wish? Or was I just being intuitive? Whatever. It didn't cost me a dime; there was no entertainment charge from anyone on this Earth.

I don't know about your area, but for the past few summers, I've noticed that the heat comes earlier, and the nippy fall weather starts in August. Maybe it's the change of air currents or the jet stream, maybe it's from global warming, maybe there's a tad of a new tilt, but there's not a doubt in my mind, there's a change in the air, and I'm attracting what I love.

A Win-Win Situation and Tips for Creating

When I wrote this we were coming up to the Saturn Neptune opposition of 8/31/06.  These techniques can be applied anytime, everyday not just with Saturn and Neptune.

How do we use this for growth, rather than worrying about it? How do we get Saturn and Neptune to work together? Saturn is about work and responsibility, while Neptune is that creative nebulous world that we can't touch, but we know it's there. At least we hope it's there.

Are you the type of person who enjoys doing something because you want to, just for fun, for creativity, with no deadline? However, when you feel as if you have to do it, do it for work, or you when give yourself a deadline, do you stop in your tracks, maybe procrastinate, or become blocked?

When this happens, realize that this reaction is a vibration; something is going on in your psyche. If you notice it, you'll have an easier time dealing with it. You don't have to go into the deep, dark reasons why you're holding back or turning your fun to drudgery, although that will help when you have time to get around to doing an analysis.

A Good Technique

You want to program yourself to notice when this is happening. It's as simple as telling yourself to notice, to let the alarm bell go off in your head. 

Have you ever programmed yourself to wake up at a certain time, maybe before your alarm goes off? 

 Several years ago, I programmed myself to wake up two minutes before a wake-up call. At that time, I didn't totally trust myself, and I often wondered if it was a coincidence, even though I always woke a few minutes before the phone rang. I worked for an airline and they gave us a wake-up call two hours before flight departure. Several months after I started doing this, I woke up two minutes before the call, got up, and when the phone rang and I looked at the clock, I realized the call was thirty-five minutes late. I still woke up two minutes before the rescheduled call! This happened on several other occasions, and as the airlines experienced more and more delays, I was thankful for this technique. I often had to get up in the middle of the night after going to sleep just four hours earlier because of a delay. Our super-conscious never lets us down.

Tell your superconscious self that when you suddenly balk at something, you'll notice the feeling, and adjust your thoughts so that you'll feel better and do your work with ease. After doing this for a while, you’ll see that vibrations are easy to change. Think of yourself as the general or the CEO putting out a command, and those who work for you always listen and help. (If you live in Europe or the  British Isles, think of this as a Cosmic Order.) We are used to wallowing in our negative emotions, but it will soon become a habit to notice and change them. This is where Neptune comes in. Neptune is that creative, unseen world that helps us do things that are not part of the physical world.

Say something to yourself like, "adjust vibration".  Pretend that everything is getting easier. Tell yourself, you want to see the joy in what you’re doing. Saturn is in Leo; Leo likes joy.

Saturn will like this very much, even though it’s not up Saturn's alley to do the ephemeral thing. But if it gets the job done, he’s very allowing.

Saturn is opposing Neptune. An opposition means choice, and you’re choosing to take the high road, leading to success. Neptune is happy because you are doing something "out of this world". Saturn is happy because you are meeting your goals. It's a win-win situation. The see saw of the opposition is now balanced.

This does not mean that you won't have other challenges with the opposition, but the energy is now channeled in such a way that whatever else happens, things will be easier to deal with.
