"Heal and Awaken" Workshop Sat., Oct. 15 in Asheville

FREE preview evening this Tuesday!  


There will be a FREE preview evening for Benjamin's "Heal and Awaken" workshop Tues., Oct. 4 from 7-8 pm at Crystal Visions, five minutes from the Asheville airport. We'll have plenty of time to sample simple, potent techniques for self-healing, spiritual awakening and the energetic assistance of others. Even if you don't attend the Oct. 15 workshop, this session could be a life-changing experience!  

 

The workshop itself will be on Saturday, Oct. 15. Participants may choose a half-day workshop from 10 am to 1 pm, or a full-day immersion from 10 am - 5 pm.  It will also be held at Crystal Visions. 

 

Final Day for Tuition Discount!

Tuition for the half-day option is $44, or $33 thru today (Sept. 30). The full-day immersion is $77, or $55 thru Sept. 30. (Half-day participants may purchase the second half for $33 extra during the lunch break, space permitting.) Satisfaction guaranteed: anyone who is not pleased with the workshop will be entitled to a full refund.

The workshop will focus on simple, potent invocations for self-healing, spiritual awakening and channeling energy to others. Large- and small-group processes will be included. Individual work between Benjamin and selected volunteers will be energetically supported by the group.

Group processes will include expanded light body awareness, conscious merging with the Higher Self, and the integration of the light body and physical body.

The guiding principle behind the "Heal and Awaken" work is that a person needs no special skills or training to call in divine healing and awakening. The only requirement is the ability to create a clear, simple invocation.

Celestial Forecast: Oct. 3-9  
Green Zodiac  
by Benjamin Bernstein

Whatever your sun sign, this forecast will help you choose how to best use the current astrological energies! Events are most powerful on the dates listed. However, their influence will be active for at least several days before and after. All dates and times are in the U.S. eastern time zone.

While everyone is affected by these global transits, you will be most powerfully impacted when moving planets activate natal planets and other sensitive points in your birth chart.

VOID-OF-COURSE MOONS. It's best to avoid starting important new projects or making major purchases during these times. "Business as usual" is the best strategy for these periods, which occur when the Moon has made its last major Ptolemaic aspect but has not yet moved into the next sign. Learn more here.  

  

10/3, 1:38 am - 4:17 am (Capricorn)
10/5, 1:58 am - 11:20 am (Aquarius)
10/7, 6:08 pm - 9:15 pm (Pisces)
10/8, 12:51 pm - 10/10, 8:59 am (Aries)


10/3 (Mon). Indulge your flair for the dramatic, or take the spotlight for a worthy cause, with Leonine Mars square Jupiter. Or, with so much fiery energy abounding, at least do something fun that works up a sweat!
        Indulge your Muse with 
Venus, dignified in the creative sign of Libra, making an inspired quintile to Pluto
! The channel can also be open for insights about relationships and finance.


10/6 (Thu). With Libran Mercury conjunct Saturn, creative thinking can crystallize into productive strategies. This is also a good time for serious, but harmonious, discussions.

10/7 (Fri). Abundant divine inspiration is available for your creative efforts (artistic or otherwise) with Libran Venus trine Neptune. You'll also find it easier to connect with the divine within yourself, and in everyone and everything around you!

10/8 (Sat). Let your creative thinking probe deep with Libran Mercury quintile Pluto.

10/9 (Sun). Venus is in Scorpio today through 11/2. While this can unearth the issues that need transformation in your relationships, creativity and finances, it also allows for profound soul blending in your relationships! On a similar note, Venus' trine to Chiron can help you more easily heal any wounds in these areas. (Feel free to try this invocation.)
        Creative writing - even of the nonfiction variety - is supported by a 
Mercury-Mars quintile
. Ditto for inspired thought and more eloquent speech!

An energizing Mars-Jupiter square highlights the week, but is balanced by a more sober Mercury-Saturn conjunction. Venus is also active, entering the mystical depths of Scorpio and trining Neptune and Chiron!

Our Part 1 Listener Chart shows the Mars-Jupiter square lining up in Marian's 1st and 10th houses; we'll discuss some of her possibilities for new beginnings and career success!

Our listener emails cover numerous topics: the meaning of a quintile yod, using peaceful invocations to deal with a venomous bureaucracy, coping with unexpected spiritual experiences, how I became a shamanic healer, and dealing with life upheavals wrought by Pluto squaring its natal position.
