DECEMBER ASTROLOGICAL UPDATE
by Marci McCaffery
 Sagittarius
(Nov 23 - Dec 21)
Keywords: I SEE!
At worst, we might feel as if everything is coming apart. At best, we align with the flow and open to the opportunities presented to us in this shifting field of cosmic energy.
Well, it's finally here, December 2012. After decades of ponderings, prophecies, speculations and forewarnings, the most talked about time in human history is upon us. The world has not ended, but we do stand at the threshold of tremendous change. We have reached a crossroad in consciousness where our altered sense of reality has separated us from an unconscious past, to an uncharted future. In retrospect, 2012 has been a year in which we awakened from our own illusions. Where we go from here is one of free will choice. We can stay with the status quo or bravely choose the unknown and move forward.
 | | Sagittarius by Josephine Wall |
This month, we are likely to feel more optimistic. The Sun moves out of Scorpio into the enthusiastic, forward-moving, fire sign of Sagittarius. This sign represents the search for truth and the perception of the higher mind to embrace the "big picture." Its energy serves to elevate the consciousness of the human vibration through the highest possible level of spiritual awareness. It offers the virtues of faith, hope, trust and vision to accomplish the impossible.
It is by no coincidence that two major events occurred last month, delivering compelling messages of change, unity and hope. We watched as the East Coast braced itself for one of the most devastating hurricanes in US history.

SPIRITUAL WORKSHOP GROUP
by Norma Mitchell
Thursday, Dec 20, 2012.
7 - 9pm. $20.
 Some of us have felt like the ugly duckling who has never fit in with our family connections or our peers in work and social conditions. We hunger to share with others who understand us, our issues and the directions we are pursuing spiritually.
This interactive workshop is designed to help us apply Spiritual Principles with love, humor and understanding in our everyday life. We will share our concerns and assist each other to see more choices than we realized were possible. We will also examine ourselves to see what we really do want in our lives and how to create the life we want and deserve to live.
God/Spirit resides within each of us rather than outside in the Spiritual ethers. When we understand and accept we can have Divine Guidance on everyday issues rather than basing our choices on our own or others experiences in life, we empower ourselves and our lives with joy, peace and love.
Norma Mitchell's experience is varied from individual sessions in person, phone and mail; teaching classes such as "Opening to Your Full Potential" and "Use Intuition to Increase Your Business"; helping people resolve addictions, enhance performance, alter life patterns and outdated beliefs through hypnotherapy and relaxation techniques; business consulting, speaker for business and social groups; and has been a guest counselor for a therapist's talk show. She is available for private sessions at the Shining Lotus on Mondays from 12 to 5.

PLANETARY ENERGIES AND THE MAJOR ARCANA
by Bruce Johnson
Astrologically, the Sun, Moon, and eight planets exhibit affinities to those cards of a like nature contained within the twenty two cards of the Major Arcana. These ten orbs radiate dual spiritual energies that express both positive and negative polarities. Each planet is attuned to two cards of the Major Arcana, with the Sun and Uranus symbolizing the triple nature of manifestation and corresponding to three cards each.
Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus, combine to form the three-in-one trinity of invisible spirit. Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, the Sun, Venus, Mercury, and the Moon, reflect the seven color rays and the seven-fold nature of life expressed in form or matter. Combining the three with the seven makes the sacred number 10, symbolized by the ancients in the 10 spheres of our solar system, the 10 globes of the Kabbalistic Sephirothic Tree, and the 10 dots in The Tetractys of Pythagoras.
