Mon March 12 - Sun March 18

You either kick it with the stars or they kick you. In this sort of wave only the strong and supple surfers survive. Surrender is the essence of communication with the divine. In the west we have a problem with that as we are so affixed to the idea of an individual self. The truth is that we are all interconnected and if you desire to peer deeper there is no separation between the macrocosm and our ego driven microcosm. So any opportunity to tune to this principle brings us more in harmony with the frequency of nature. It's all nature by the way, nuclear power plants, breast implants and terrorist insurgents. We, though entirely warped, are still of and belonging to the natural world, the sum total of all that is.

This eclipse cycle we are in began with the Lunar eclipse of March 3rd-4th depending on where you are. It culminates this week on the 18th or 19th depending on your longitude. Now is not the time to shirk the responsibility of taking a human birth, take the chance of believing it is all random and risk being swirled under or bet on the belief that you are here for a reason and the first part of that reason is to comprehend this as a fact. It is out of no-one's reach, we all have the tools to evolve to our highest state, it does take some personal research and spending some time with your real self no matter how dark that may be. The dirtiest floor looks different with just one swish of the broom.

Monday is a day of accounting, over the weekend a plan has developed, a magnetization to the direction you want to travel. It can be in real time like a place you want to go or knowledge that you wish to attain. It has become evident though and if you deny it you will shrink away from this purpose for another cycle. Take notice of the things that have come up since the 3rd, what are you struggling with, what are the thoughts or actions that keep tugging at you. Here are the hints of where you should place your priorities. It may seem contrary to the world of illusion you see around you but that is all the more reason to put your actions and faith into what your heart desires. It is sometimes this friction against what we call, 'the real world' that provides the friction to sharpen the blade that is our being.

Tuesday we have the balance sheet before us, a stark mental state that can compute the facts and only the facts. It's a useful mindset as you can see where you are putting your energy and what it's taking from you. Acts that are in harmony with your path should give you back more energy then you put in. Simple things are easiest to see, like drinking enough water, eating vibrant food and moving your mind to the positive-creative rather then the subjective-negative. Your being can gain energy by living rather then feeling drained by the day to day existing.

Capricorn can be cold and cut and dried but at least it's clear. It's good for settling accounts and bringing relationships into the present. You don't want any dangling issues coming into this new moon over the weekend. It's best to take a clean slate into the dark of the moon. Even with long term projects or relationships you can bring emotional or physical accounts up to date. Putting the awareness of the now on them gives you space to project them into new forms and realities.

Wednesday we get a shift that will help with getting some creative movement out of this eclipse cycle. The Moon moves into Aquarius, the sign of the water bearer, an image of the perpetually creative, and the eternal refresher. It's the sign of the philosopher and the revolutionary. It can be a bit cold and detached in it's extremes but we will all have the 'outside the box' mindset. Those that are resistant to this thinking will feel threatened as they are attached to the way things are. If you are feeling the world is trying to rock your seemingly stable boat you may want to realize the nature of nature is change. Listen to new ideas objectively and if you keep feeling, 'we've always done it this way why change', then you know that you need to get more mentally supple and it's harmony calling you to play it that way. If you're the one offering the revolutionary idea do it with grace and objectivity that way all can embrace it as their idea and less personal issues will get in the way.

Thursday there is still the mental atmosphere of the new and fresh in the air. Take on your biggest issues and be your own council, it's cheaper and more effective. Allow the mind to wander over what really seems to irk you about your world, people and situations. Look for hilarious and ridiculous solutions like burning it all to the ground, shaving your head and walking away from it all. It may not be what you need to do but if you free yourself from the linear thinking, the feelings of being bound to certain responsibilities it can invigorate the truth that the only obligation you have is to become a better person, not collect more toys and create more attachments. We can see how we relate to our world, it's our reaction to the illusions of reality that we can play with, there are some karmas that are not fixed and objective action done without the idea of personal attachment gives us the cleansing action that living free can bring.

If there is a person or situation that seems hopeless and without a fresh path visualize what you think would be a best case scenario for all concerned. Starting from there you can see the steps that you can take today, maybe small but anything unique in what seem mundane and enclosed relationships will feel like fresh air. Tomorrow we head towards the eclipse and so today you set your mind/heart/body to accept the renewal of the new moon. Clean yourself and surroundings with a playful and reverent attitude. Unless you're on your last breath you have a shot a taking the right direction, even then you have a clear purpose; thinking of the divine as you exhale that last lungful of reality.

On Friday you could use the mantra, "lets get this party started!" It's a day that is full of planetary action and the Moon moves into Pisces, the sign that she will be new in on Sunday night or Monday morning depending on where you're standing. Jupiter is trine Saturn to make sure that we don't take expansion lightly and setting the tone for instant Karma. For some this may be intimidating but the opportunity to realize instant healing and immediate transformation is there. Take yourself seriously as what you think, say and do is translated down to the very cells of your being.

In quick succession we have Mercury and Pluto, Venus and Pluto and then Mercury and Venus aspecting each other. This is a bit of a sweet barrage with a spicy center. It has an overriding sense of the Venetian though and our concepts of beauty and grace are going to be challenged. How do you observe beauty around you? This is a call to see the exquisite in even the most trivial framework, like beautiful ripples of color in the spilled oil on the pavement. Yes it's pollution and an evidence of a world that is out of balance with it's energy resources, it's still in the vision of it an active symbol of the patterns of color and the frequencies of light manifestation possible to be observed.

This day is an opportunity to realize the ability to not just blindly try and see the positive but to bring up your awareness that isn't bound by such casual judgments as good or bad, that can see process as a state that is evident at all times. There is no pure evil or good, these are just simple and convenient concepts that keep us free seeing the real patterns of reality.

So if it looks like your world is crumbling then you are like a canvas that is being painted over for a new artwork to be born on. We are the process and the process is us.

Saturday is the dark of the moon and the veil is lifted off of our perceptions. Dreams and intuitions can speak to you like a guru. The more we develop a thirst or hunger for this the more that it is amplified. It can become our 'normal' reality if we receive it just as real as we do the newspaper or television. In reality it's just this simple and this available to us at all times. When we have the dark of the moon each month we can tune to this frequency and develop our ability to communicate with it. Especially on the dark moon of a lunar eclipse we have this opportunity. No matter your method of prayer or meditation, in all philosophies and spiritual paths the importance of the dark of the moon is observed. Take some time to center yourself in silence, it's been a week of new looks at old frameworks and now we just need to swallow and not keep chewing. Silence is the most direct and clear teacher. The largest place that any of us can ever go is the space behind our closed eyes.

Venus heads into Taurus, the sign that she rules. It's a sweet frosting to the coming eclipse and the internal grinding we've been going through. We can absorb and tune to this energy of the satisfied and the innate quality of beauty in everything. Even a pile of dung on the street has a perspective of beauty and harmony to it, can you see the flowers that grew and bloomed so the cow could eat? It's not a rational type of thinking that is blindly tripping on a 'positive perspective no matter what'. It's more having an awareness of the totality of the cycles and that harmony is the base of nature. No matter how dark it is, especially when it's the darkest a single flame is blinding.

Sunday it's ON! as they say. It's like a spiritual holiday and pop quiz at the same time. For Pisces natives this is an amplified day of your nature. For the rest of us we get to be Pisces for a day and revel in the psychic and intuitive nature of the sign. From our little rock the earth we see the moon move exactly in front of the sun. Just ruminating on the odds of it gives one a reverence for the path and cycle of the natural world. We can use this symbol in our lives, what things or situations most emulate this precision in our realities. Here is where we want to commit our energies. No matter if you are a sadhu or investment banker there is a method to live in harmony, free of desire for the fruits of your actions. In fact in our world it's becoming fashion for the famous and powerful to give money away and to assist the sick and poor bringing awareness to these arenas on the planet.

The critical mind that constantly offers the rhetoric that it's all going to shit so why worry can be confronted under this aspect and exposed for the fear based and selfish thought pattern that it is. We can tune our being like an instrument; there is a possibility of a best-case scenario that takes place with ease. Where the work to bring about a more harmonious world leaves one refreshed and satisfied at the end of the day. The most powerful act we can take is forgiveness, starting with ourselves. The we head to sleep and dreams each night with a sense of satisfaction and gratitude, this leads to awaking each day in a being that is grateful and thirsty for the lessons and challenges to come.
