A Powerful Week We are in the middle of a very powerful week with the forces of the Full Moon tomorrow (Thursday) followed by the beginning of Passover and the celebration of Easter. This week, we are in correspondence with the miracle of rebirth, the return of the life-giving light of the Sun and the forces of the full moon. New ideas, new possibilities, and new opportunities surround us if we ALLOW them to come in. We are being invited to renew our interest in worthwhile projects and ideas, re-awakening our dedication to our personal growth and living.
The impelling force of Aries (the zodiac sign we are currently in) gives us an enormous opportunity to push forward and break through the obstacles that are before us. We can gain greater strength and momentum by dedicating ourselves to our highest values through choice and action. One way to do this is to ask ourselves::
- "What needs to be done that I can do?"
- "What can I share more fully with others?"
- "How can I apply my talents for the good of mankind?"
(Forces of the Zodiac, by Carl Japikse & Robert Leichtman).
Reflecting in this manner, we deepen the relationship we have with ourselves which is the essential ingredient to having wonderful relationships with others. That is the gift of the full moon on Thursday, April 9th. The gift of balancing the masculine and feminine within ourselves. The gift of openness and cooperation. The gift of new ideas, new perspectives, and new thinking. The gift of friendship.
This week, may you join me in resurrecting the light, the power, the grace, and wisdom that is within each one of us. May we deepen our self-awareness and discover what we are really capable of. Then, may we join together in community and cause, assisting one another to achieve and experience the greatest good.
Blessings,
BELIEVE in the possible. CREATE the possible. LIVE the possible.

SOULFUL SEEDS

A flower doesn't turn toward the sun because it needs to, but because it wants to, and so the process is effortless and joyful. All things considered, what do YOU WANT?"

COACHING TIP
|
A Time Management Gut Check
The speed at which things are changing and unfolding is significantly increasing. This increase requires us to constantly adapt and make new choices as to where we are spending our time. This week, I invite you to contemplate the following questions - then make the adjustments needed to ensure you are aligned with your values and priorities.
- Where am I procrastinating?
- What excuses do I use to procrastinate?
- What are my time wasters?
- Where can I be more efficient and deliberate in my life?

Featured Awakener Carl Japikse, Author & Teacher
 Twelve years ago, I studied with a healer and spiritual teacher for an intense period of five years. During that experience I grew immensely and had some of the most profound experiences that have shaped the person I am today. Through vision quests, healing sessions, out of body experiences, dream work, and group classes, my awareness and knowledge of our potential as human beings became anchored into my psyche. One of the tools that my teacher had me use and study each month was a book called the Forces of the Zodiac, written by Carl Japikse. It is a guide that explains what forces are upon us each month and describes the opportunities and challenges that are present during each sign and cycle. Twelve years later, I continue to use this book as one of my key references and tools to keep me aligned and on track. I refer to it during every full moon and at the beginning of each new sign that we enter. This month, we all have a rare opportunity to experience this type of guidance directly because Carl is coming to Utah! Carl is offering a two-day workshop on Active Meditation. Throughout the weekend, we will learn to: control stress and overeactivness, build concentration and discipline, heal and enrich the emotions, change habit patterns, develop intuitive skills and enrich our creativity and genius. Apparently the class is filling up, so please register this week if you are interested. Workshop: Active Meditation

Conscious Conversations
 Thank you to all the new faces that showed up on Monday night for the discussion on ALLOWING! It was a fantastic evening and one that left me inspired and connected. One personal insight I gained was this: I need to allow myself to enjoy walking instead of resisting it.
Walking for me has always been boring and I don't view it as a true
form of exercise - yes, that is a limiting belief. With the hip pain I
have been experiencing lately, I am forced not to run, and walking
seems to be a reasonable option or outlet. So, after speaking with
Mike, I walked away with a self-realization that I can turn this limiting
belief around and choose to view walking as a gift. Walking will allow
me to move, something that my heart and soul desperately seek. Walking
in the beautiful, fresh Park City air will force me to be present with
nature and myself. Yesterday, I went for a walk and listened to the birds chirp and sing. I unconsciously timed it perfectly to be up on the hill for the sunrise. The gift was more than I could have anticipated. As I stood with my arms outstretched saying a sunrise meditation out loud to myself, I saw the feathered sun radiate its light over the Park City valley and then felt it shine through my body. I was filled with hope and the presence of light. It was a gift that emerged from allowing myself to enjoy walking. Mark your calendars for the next Conscious Conversation! Monday, May 4th from 6pm-8pm at Rikka in Park City. Visit www.consciousconversations.blogspot.com to review the topics and post a comment or I will see you on Facebook.
