THE HEART
 by Drusant
Where is my Heart?
What misdeeds did I enlist to justify so fallow a soul as mine?
My people, my tribe, have conquered and pillaged everything they see and touch. That is the empty legacy I have inherited. As I look at all the remaining indigenous peoples, they have nothing and yet I envy them for they still have the heart that I am so lacking.
My people, my tribe have everything, everything they can see and touch. My science is now verifying the realm of the unseen, the realm of thought and soul and we will not rest until we subvert that too.
What pernicious crimes did I enjoy to leave me so cruel?...
Drusant is the pen name of a long-time, faithful customer of the Shining Lotus™ Metaphysical Bookstore. A unendingly inquisitive mind that never stops asking 'why?' or 'how?', he continues to quest for esoteric, spiritual and paranormal answers in the Denver area. We are extremely grateful to him for allowing us to publish his creative writings in our newsletter and on our website.

THE TOWER AND URANUS
by Bruce Johnson
The universal truths of the tarot are reflected in many ways through varied translations. Interpreting the Tower card esoterically for an advanced soul reverses the traditional account of destruction and catastrophe, into one of great good fortune. Uranus, symbolic of soul intelligence expressed as a sudden lightning bolt of divine fire from heaven, is more present in the Tower card than in any other tarot card.
The Tower symbolizes a human personality, individual and apparently separated, looking out through unlit windows of perception...
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.

PLANETS & POSSIBILITIES: A LOOK AT THE ASTROLOGY OF NOVEMBER
by Sally Shotwell
 | Scorpio |
The Sun (our consciousness) is in harmony-seeking Libra as the month begins. An influential event quickly follows as mental Mercury turns retrograde (backward) in intense Scorpio on October 4 to subsequently move to Libra on October 11. Before it turns direct on October 26, we are reminded that we should use this period to reflect upon recent decisions and review transactions to guarantee their accuracy. This scrutiny should also be employed when dealing with close, personal interactions. We're all aware that our environment is shifting around us and taking the time to be informed of our immediate circumstances will prepare us for unexpected future developments.
These may be delivered to us via the two eclipses the month presents us with. The first takes place on October 8 and is a Full Moon lunar eclipse in Aries. This lunar aspect deals with inner, emotional issues but Aries is a fire sign which is uncomfortable internalizing things.

Sally Shotwell is a life-long student of esoteric spirituality with a super-natural curiosity and an undying thirst for knowledge. Her focus on studies in Astrology have spanned decades, and have included studying with Mario C. Veo, John Joseph, Mark Husson and C. A. Brooks.

PLEASURE OR PAIN... A JOURNEY TO SELF DISCOVERY
by Mario C. Veo
I was born in a small town in Italy, and as a good little Catholic boy, I had a deep yearning 'to know God'... so what else could I do but join Seminary School.
From day one I tried to be 'good' - truly I did - but became the plague of the Nuns with my never ending questions..."You ask too much... Don't question your Faith... Why do you need to know - a good Catholic would not be so nosy..." (heck, all I wanted to know was "Who actually is this Holy Spirit"... and, "Did God have a Mother"... and, my favorite, "if God created everything, did He create Himself... and if so, why did He choose to be male"... I was not too popular...).
