TALKING STATUES & STONES OF THE ANCIENTS
by Bruce Johnson
 The same power Jesus used to raise the dead was used in a lesser way by the ancients to magnetize religious gems and stone idols. The Chaldean, Egyptian, Greek, and Jewish priesthood all communed with their gods through vitalized statues called teraphim. The willed direction of occult forces resulted in carved figures that could be imbued with life, intelligence, the ability to speak, and even mobility.
Teraphim varied from miniature, through human- sized and larger. Each god had his instrument of revelation to speak through. The life-size statue of Serapis in the Egyptian temples, the Chaldean idol of the moon, and the stone oracles of Jehovah, all facilitated communication from divine beings to humans. Teraphim could be oracles for angels or demons depending on the goodness or evil of their fashioners. It is well documented in history that Pope Sylvester the 2nd was the owner of an "oracular head".
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. |

JULY ASTROLOGICAL UPDATE
by Marci McCaffery
 CANCER the CrabJune 22 - July 23 Key Phrase: "I FEEL" "We do not need more knowledge, we need more character." - Calvin Coolidge (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus & Mars in Cancer)The mood shifts from intellectual to instinctual as the transiting Sun moves out of Gemini into the sensitive waters of Cancer. Cancer's tenacious, nurturing, intuitive qualities respond to life through feelings. Cancer innately rides the highs and lows of the emotional pulse, just like the waves of the ocean. In this society we are taught to dismiss our feelings and choose logic over intuition, and head over heart. However, the more we are in tune with our own emotional rhythms, the more we can flow through these accelerated times of unpredictable change. Where are you emotionally right now? Are you operating from fear or love  | | Cancer by Josephine Wall |
July is a super-charged month, filled with planetary tensions. The transiting Sun directly opposes Pluto in Capricorn and squares Uranus in Aries, signifying projections, conflicts and turning points. This is the first of seven exact squares, beginning on June 29 at 8 degrees Aries/ Capricorn. What on earth does all of this mean? Pluto exposes all that has been hidden or denied, forcing us to face our shadow selves and own our power. Uranus uproots all that keeps us stuck, giving way to confusion, upheavals, break downs and breakthroughs. The thrust is for individualized self-expression and personal freedom. We are advised to stay in the present moment, moment by moment and follow our intuitive guidance.

MAKING HEALTHIER CHOICES
by Norma Mitchell
 MAKING HEALTHIER CHOICES with Norma Mitchell.
Monday, July 16, 7 - 9pm. $20.
We all make hundreds of choices every day. They are as varied as our choosing what to think to the time to get up, what to wear, to eat, to do on a moment by moment basis.
One of the advantages of having choice is more than just what we want the end result to be, it is the process of getting to that end result which also involves our emotions. Each of us have the right to experience a wonderful sense of enjoyment rather than the varied emotions of unhappiness. Each of us have to decide what we want to do about those emotions.

 A Himalayan Salt Lamp would be a perfect addition to your home or office. Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamps are made from chunks of salt crystal rock that are taken from the salt mines found in underground caves in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains. The Himalayan salt lamp makes use of the minerals that have been preserved for millions of years, releasing their special properties through the introduction of heat from an electric bulb or from the flame of a candle. These special properties emitted from the Salt Lamp are responsible for promoting the health and wellness of individuals via ionization of the air and the eradication of pollution. The special properties of Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamps consist of negatively charged ions that act on the contaminants in the air by neutralizing them and weighing them down so they can no longer circulate. When this occurs, individuals can breathe more easily and many ailments and allergies that frequently afflict them begin to diminish.
USE THE COUPON BELOW TO GET 20% OFF YOUR PURCHASE OF ANY SALT LAMP OR SALT PRODUCT DURING THE ENTIRE MONTH OF JULY!!
