planets viewGreetings!  
I'm writing to you from CEO Space in Las Vegas, NV - a national business networking forum about cooperation rather than competition - one of the communities  I belong to that I love!
 
I met an extraordinary woman today and we spontaneously channeled for one another after she told me, "You have a message for me," and I trusted her guidance.
Being with her opened a new level of energetic flow for me. I read her chart but said little and transmitted most of the material energetically which she then interpreted in ways I couldn't have articulated. This is my Christmas present, discovering a new gift within myself (yay!). 
 
Anything can happen when you get in the game, so get out there and play!
 
As we approach the New Moon in Sagittarius, remember that this is the final week with all planets in Direct motion until Mars goes Retrograde on Sunday, Dec 20th. If there's anything you're planning to begin, please do it this week!
 
Here's the astrological line-up for Dec '09 through early '10:
 
* New Moon in Sagittarius (beliefs/expansion) - Dec 16th
 
* Mars (action/will) goes Retrograde from Sun, Dec 20th-March 10th
 
* Mercury (communication) goes Retrograde from Dec 26th-Jan 15th
 
* Lunar Eclipse on Dec 31st - an important ending
 
* Saturn (structure/career) goes Retrograde from Jan 13th-May 30th
 
* Solar Eclipse on Jan 15th - a turbo-charged new beginning!
 
Saturn is squaring Pluto all month which demands that you get real regarding your non-working patterns. The potential for growth is unlimited when you're willing to step beyond your comfort zone into the unknown, which can ultimately lead you into your genius. Stop doing things the same old way! 
 
Let 2010 be the year that you commit to your evolution on a new level. Take bold actions that propel you into another dimension and you will have plenty of opportunities during the next few months to acclimate to your new incarnation and the way you move through life. 
 
Appreciate the adventure, be willing to evolve in practical ways and I wish you joyful creations! 
 
"Everything you want is outside your comfort zone" ~ Jack Canfield
 
Love and light,

Perfect Timing! is a monthly report that gives you the current energetic circumstances every single day.
 
Would you try to paint your house in a windstorm?
 
Know when storms are likely and when all signs say "GO!", along with other relevant information.

"Perfect Timing has been a great asset when planning/projecting/deciding my monthly to do list, business and personal. In particular, knowing the void moon is and how it can affect me, has allowed me to move through the current energetic climate with much greater ease. It has taken a lot of the guesswork out of when things may or may not be going my way and allows room for making smart choices. Who couldn't use more help these days?" ~ Betsy Clarke, Conscious Communications Specialist, New York, NY

New Moon in Sagittarius
Wednesday, Dec 16, '09
7:02 am EST ~ 4:02 pm PST 
 
The New Moon is the time for new beginnings  so take an action directed toward what you want to increase, create or develop in your life.

Sagittarius is the "truthteller" and rules higher truth, the meaning of life, spirituality, law, religion, belief systems, philosophy, higher education, ideals, ethics, publishing, broadcasting, long journeys, foreign travel, other cultures, social causes, politics, adventure and expansion. Sagittarius is happy fighting for a cause, i.e., the Spiritual Warrior who is involved in raising consciousness and operating on a higher level or doing good for the collective. 
 
Sagittarius sees the big picture and is enthusiastic, optimistic, and inspired, which can provide you with the confidence to move forward in areas of life where you may have been reluctant to go before. On the other hand, Sagittarius can be impulsive and is often a "leap before you look" sign - so please check that whatever you are leaping into is solid.
 
Sagittarius rules beliefs. Do your beliefs support you or are they inhibiting your growth and holding you hostage?
 
I urge you to examine what you THINK is possible for you, because whatever you believe is what you will be able to achieve. If you are limited by your beliefs, now is the time to seek help to clear limiting beliefs - and I assure you it can easily be done!  
 
* Focus on a vision for your life. Which area of your life would you like to see expand? 
 
* Where do you feel limited or restricted? Here's the bigger question: Who is restricting you?
 
* Feeling inspired creates a meaningful life. What inspires you? 
 
* What truth do you need to look at or speak up about?  
 
* Sagittarius rules ethics - is your lifestyle in alignment with that which you say you care about?
   What do you stand for?
 
* What move have you been contemplating but have been too afraid to make that speaks to a deep calling from
   within? This is an auspicious and optimal time to take an action. You are missing a huge opportunity if you allow
   the ego's fear to overrule your Higher Self's call.
 
The energies of the Universe support your efforts to stand in your truth and will give you the impetus you need to move forward. This New Moon provides a "big picture" energy of expansion, so please utilize it to become who you came here to be. It's the perfect time to connect with your highest ideals and to activate your dreams for 2010!
 
"Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it's only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential." ~ Barack Obama
 
"Everything will line up perfectly when knowing and living the truth becomes more important than looking good." ~ Alan Cohen
 
"I ask and allow that I release my false beliefs - the ones I know about and the ones I don't." ~ Affirmation
 
"It takes a lot of courage to look into the cosmic mirror. We are so big that it is overwhelming to take in, to imagine our true greatness, true beauty and true enlightened being-ness.The great universe in which we live provides constant feedback about our evolutionary process if we choose to look, listen and stop making excuses for postponing our awakening." ~ Rev. Michael Beckwith
 
"The purpose of self-doubt is the opportunity to check in with God. It's usually a sign that we're investing in questionable beliefs." ~ Robert Holden
 
"A thought is harmless unless we believe it. It's not our thoughts, but the attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means believing that it's true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that we've been attaching to, often for years." ~ Byron Katie
 

 

 

 Mars Retrograde   

                                          Mars Dec 20, '09 ~ March 10, '10
 
Mars is the planet of action, will, courage, how we get what we want, aggression, sex, and it is the maverick and the warrior. Mars is a "work" planet and it makes things happen, therefore, when Mars goes retrograde you have the opportunity to revisit, regroup or revise your approach to issues, projects and plans - especially what began around Oct 17th. 
 
What arrived in your life during mid-Oct '09? During the next few months you will be making the necessary adjustments, revisions and trying new methods of operating in order to move forward with innovtion and greater productivity regarding the October entry.
 
Mars Retrograde energy means that you can't function in the same old ways and have things work out. It's time to move in a more instinctual way, guided by intuition rather than the traditional, linear (mental) way. If you persist in your old, outdated ways, you will experience obstacles that can create frustration, so be willing to go within and allow yourself to "feel" into how to move forward. Remember, this is not the time to begin a new job or start new projects if you can help it unless you are prepared to "swim upstream." It's so much easier to go with the flow!
 
On another note, this is the time when you could have a fling with a lover from your past (Mars is "yang" energy).  Just so you know!

 

 Mercury Retrograde
Dec 26, '09 - Jan 15, '10
 
Mercury Glyph
 
On Sat, Dec 26th Mercury - planet of communication, information, and education - begins it's retrograde journey, going back over whatever was happening, beginning around Dec 9th. Pay attention to what's going on during that time because you will revisit whatever it is during late Dec through Jan 15th when Mercury goes Direct.
 
During Mercury Retrograde all forms of communication are susceptible to disruption, so information that is transmitted in any way (via iPhone, computer, fax, phone, FedEx, verbally) is at the mercy of Mercury Retrograde. This can manifest as lacking information you need but not realizing it, misunderstandings, contracts that don't stick, lost/delayed mail, miscommunication, equipment malfunctions and snafus in general. 
  
"A bend in the road is not the end of the road... unless you fail to make the turn."  ~ Anonymous

The guidance to prepare for Mercury retrograde is to back up your info, make copies of important documents, sign contacts, send important emails, finalize instructions and if you have planned to begin anything new, take an action before the retrograde goes into effect. And please don't make any major purchases during Mercury Retrograde (especially electronic equipment or appliances), as it's common for something to be wrong with either the item or the transaction. Also, Mercury rules ground transportation so be sure your vehicle is in good working order and double-check travel plans and directions.
 
Please understand that Mercury Retrograde is not merely an inconvenience in your usual way of operating in daily life. There are astrological energies, Mercury Retrograde being one of them, that are meant to shift your attention away from pursuing new frontiers in the external world to bring you within to focus on contemplating, clearing, planning, rectifying, amending, completing and slowing down long enough to get clear about your intentions - where you're going, what you're doing and how you want to direct your energy.  
 
"Dreams are not made to put us to sleep, but to awaken us." ~ Goemans

During Mercury Retrograde the guidance is to do all the "re" activities - review, revise, redo, revisit, reorganize and work on projects already in process. This is the time to complete anything you've left undone and a good time to look for lost or misplaced information or objects, as things often turn up during Mercury retrograde. This is a wonderful energy for reviewing your goals, acknowledging your accomplishments and for meditation, reflection and introspection.  What are your dreams and your visions for your life?                                      
 
"A dreamer, you know, is a mind that looks over the edges of things." ~ Mary O'Hara

 
If you need to make amends, offer an apology or reconnect with a loved one, friend, acquaintence, or yourself - this is a good time to make those moves. To go from separation to connection, from discord to harmony, from wounding to healing is an uplifting, expansive experience and such a gift!
 
"Choosing not to be offended is proactive forgiveness." ~ Harry Palmer
Another fabulous use of this retrograde energy is to get your financial house in order.  Review your budget if you have one and if you don't, make one so that you are aware of where your money is coming from and going. Make conscious decisions about how you want to live - do you need to downsize and release material items that are no longer useful in your life?  This is a perfect time to lighten your load and release!
 
"Money loves to be paid attention to." ~ Kendall Summerhawk

When Mercury Retrograde arrives, use the energy to clear whatever is no longer useful in your life - whether it's physical clutter, old habits or outdated ideas that no longer serve you. Mercury Retrograde can be a blessing imposed by the Universe when you have to slow down, check in with yourself, reprioritize your life and get quiet - so you can get clarity and then go with the flow. Don't fight it and try to swim upstream - rather, focus on being in the flow.
 
"The only difference between stumbling blocks and steppingstones is the way in which we use them." ~ Unknown
        
As the pace slows down, you can use this time to practice flexibility and patience (emphasis on practice).  If you find yourself becoming frustrated or overwhelmed, stop, take a breath and remind yourself that all is in Divine Order.  
 
"When the traffic lights are red in New Delhi, they display the word "relax." Every time you come to a red light, instead of sitting grinding your teeth, try seeing it as an opportunity for practice.  Connect with the in-going and out-going of the breath. Be one with the breathing."  ~ Tenzin Palmo

Testimonials
  
"I received an astrology reading with Lisa as a gift from a dear friend.  Little did I know that our conversation would be life altering. Lisa is an amazing communicator and her reading touched me to the core that no one knows except for me.  She mentioned that the Avatar Course has tools that I would learn to propel myself into the new future I wanted for myself. Upon her suggestion and in blind faith that Avatar was an opening for me, I booked a ticket and committed to the full course with only three days to prepare.Thank goodness I did. My life is forever changed.  I am now pointed in the direction of my life's purpose and the world is aligning with me. The Avatar Course was transformational in so many ways and the depth of the tools are life long: no trying required. I encourage everyone to experience themselves through Avatar.  Go.  Find out what is waiting for you to claim as your life's purpose." ~ Malia Brown, Banker, Park City, UT
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I attended Avatar right after a difficult and painful ending of a relationship. I was depressed, obsessed and needed a solution to help heal the emotional pain and all that goes with it. Just within the first two days I had moved quickly through many feelings and gained deep insights into so many aspects of myself and how to integrate all my feelings. I felt a freedom and lightness I hadn't felt in years. My life had also become unmanageable. I had lost touch with myself and with what truly inspires me to participate in life fully.

As I continued through the course, my old beliefs and patterns began to fall away and a renewed sense of myself emerged. I became free to be who I truly am meant to be in the world and I now understand the meaning of what it is to "live deliberately" and create the experience of life that I desire. Upon returning I have a renewed sense of purpose and hope. If challenged by life in any way I have the powerful Avatar tools to help me regain my center and move through the challenges that come my way. As a result of this I have decided to attend the Masters course. I am very grateful for the amazing experience and the care and love I received at Avatar."  ~ Jeff Bova, Music Producer and Composer, Los Angeles, CA
 
 What is AvatarŪ? 
 
Avatar is a nine-day self-empowerment training delivered by Avatar Masters. The Avatar tools are a combo of exercises and procedures that increase your ability to live deliberately.They are remarkable effective, efficient tools for taking control of your life. 
 
If you need to identify and resolve a self-sabotaging belief or behavior, if you want to create a harmonious relationship, achieve success or reach a state of joy and contentment, the Avatar tools can help you. They are also effective for  removing grief and stress from your life, restoring health, and achieving peace of mind.

Creating New Moon Intentions

New Moon in Sagittarius - Dec 16 '09
 7:02 am EST ~ 4:02 am  PST
 
New Moon Intentions are a concrete way of claiming what you want in your life.
 
Because a spark of the Divine is within you, this is the place from which you create. You have the power to manifest your desires when your beliefs are in alignment with them. Check your beliefs and choose your thoughts wisely!
 
Your New Moon intentions are written statements of what you intend to create in the coming Moon cycle.      
 
Creating Intentions
  • Create your list on the day of the New Moon if possible
  • Review your list from the previous month and check off anything received
  • Delete or replace items that are no longer relevant
  • Create your new list and place it on your altar or in a private place
  • Review your list out loud every day to keep your creations conscious
How To Create Intentions
  • List at least two and no more than ten intentions, so you don't dilute the energy
  • Start each intention with the words "I create" 
  • Only write what you intend to create (you can't create for someone else)
 
New Moon Abundance Check
  • On the day of the New Moon write a check to yourself 
  • Write your name in the section labeled "Pay to the order of" 
  • Write "Paid in Full" in both the amount sections 
  • Sign the check with the words, "Spiritual Law"
  • Place the check on your altar or put it in a special place and prepare to receive!     
 
"Intentions:  I am responsible for what I see. I choose the feelings I experience. I set the goals that I achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me I ask for and receive as I have asked." ~ Malikka Chopra
 
 
Tips for Transformation
 
Lotus - JapaneseI offer weekly tips for those who want to receive them, one per week, that will help you focus on some aspect of your consciousness, healing, and awakening. 
 
Each tip refers to teachings I've acquired over the years via teachers, classes, books, friends and my own personal experiences.
 
My intention is to provide you with a focus as you move through your daily routine that will enhance/expand your experience of yourself and your life in various ways.
