OCCULTISM, THE SUN, AND SUNSPOTS
by Bruce Johnson
 Orthodox science describes our Sun as a ball of gas surrounded by an atmosphere, with nuclear fusion taking place at its center producing energy. Occultism views our physical sun as a gigantic atom, a storehouse of electro-magnetic forces which veils an invisible sun that is the true source of the Sun's power. Like all physical things, the Sun has an etheric body that underlies its tangible form. Where traditional science sees a photosphere, chromosphere, and corona, esoteric science observes a magnetic aura of varying intensities that fluctuates in regular cycles. These cycles of 22.6 years correspond to the heartbeat of our life-giving sun, and cause the increase and decrease of sunspots.
Sunspots are usually found in pairs, with one positively charged and other negatively charged.  The magnetic polarity of these spots is reversed every 11.3 years with the polarity change of the Sun's North and South Poles. During periods of magnetic inertia, these spots or vortices become invisible and seem to disappear, followed by peaks of magnetic activity and increased numbers of sunspots. Sunspots are often found in clusters, and can last from a few days to several months, with the largest spots reaching sizes many times that of the Pacific Ocean.
Bruce Johnson has over 30 years of study in the fields of Ancient Wisdom and occultism. He has taught classes on a wide range of topics, from Atlantis to mediums to Zoroaster. He is also a spiritualist minister, with a background in spiritual astrology. He lives in Colorado with his wife and their cat. |

JUNE ASTROLOGICAL UPDATE
by Marci McCaffery
 GEMINI the Twins Key Phrase: "I THINK" Gemini is the sign of duality, ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication. It is both the magician and the trickster because there is magic in Mercury's words. Through language we communicate with one another. We invent, build and change minds, to reshape our world. The thought process of Gemini is inquisitive, diverse, and alive in the world of ideas. Noted for its wit and versatility, this sign thrives on sociable charm, adaptability, new experiences and change. Freedom of movement and life-style is a treasured value for the Gemini soul. The nervous system is highly charged, until the mind is under control.  | | Gemini by Josephine Wall |
Several important events highlight this month, shifting us back to the intense energies of the past couple of years. Eclipses generally bring tension, chaos and transformation. This month's Solar eclipse is an extra-powerful New Moon. Major endings and new beginnings mark a key point of change. The effects can last for the next six months to a year. The Solar Eclipse at 0 degrees Gemini on May 20th is described by the Sabian symbols as the image of a glass-bottomed boat, revealing undersea wonder. This implies that higher-dimensional realities are more accessible to us now.
Marcia McCaffery is an NCGR certified astrological counselor specializing in life purpose, career and relationship readings. She is also a Reiki master teacher, a spiritual advisor, and an accredited Conscious Change coach with a private practice in the Denver area. www.stardirectionastrology.com |
HUMAN DESIGN
with Marci McCaffery
Sun, Jun 17, 2 - 3pm, FREEHave you noticed? Life is just one decision after another. Most of us have been led to make life decisions based on criterias that aren't necessarily best for us. We've been:
- Told to follow the rules and adopt expected mindsets
- Discouraged from expressing our true selves
- Conditioned into living someone else's dream
Yet deep inside, we know we are meant to have everything our soul desires; to live a richly rewarding life. It's tough to find our way on an unknown path, without a map. Human Design gives you insight into your personal blueprint, your "inner truth", and empowers you to make choices that lead you to personal contentment, fulfilling relationships, and a fruitful career. Learn how to tap into you own inner blueprint to make wiser decisions going forward. This informative, FREE one-hour talk will give you valuable insights to make better decisions using the unique keys in your human design. |
