You are always reading insights about you as well as what’s up with people and causes that we wholeheartedly support. But time to time people ask about who I am and how I feel about a lot of things that they have to deal with in their own lives. We will make changes to the photos and pictures every few months, so you will have bits and pieces about my take on me and what I value or what I know not to be true for me. I hope you enjoy the open door to me and my character.

The Signs of the Time–Okay, seekers of truth, love and beauty and peace, balance and harmony, what does a phenomenon like Mercury retrograde mean and how does it affect all of us–no matter our sun sign? Sometimes the other planets appear to be traveling backward through the zodiac; this is an illusion. We call this illusion retrograde motion. It will be in effect from January 21 until February 11.
Mercury’s retrograde periods can cause our plans to go awry. However, this is an excellent time to reflect on the past. Intuition is high during these periods, and coincidences can be extraordinary. When Mercury is retrograde, remain flexible, allow time for extra travel, and avoid signing contracts. Review projects and plans at these times, but wait until Mercury is direct again to make any final decisions. In 2015, Mercury will be retrograde during: January 21 – February 11, May 19 – June 11 and September 17 – October 9.
These Mercury retrograde time frames are being given to assuage the faster-than-the-speed-of light Aries. Snoop dogs Sagittarius are discontent until they figure everything out. Whatever happened to the concept of revelation? Om. Tat. Sat. Om.
There will be a New Moon at 00 degrees of Aquarius on January 20, which is fortunate for early-degree Aquarians from January 20 – February 1. Aquarians are the keepers of the responsibility we must have for the disenfranchised. They care and they are guardians at the gate of human rights and are determined to see us become our brothers’ and sisters’ lightning rods for global change. Other Air and Fire Signs will be affected favorably as well.
There will be a Full Moon at 14 degrees of Leo on February 3. With Jupiter retrograde until April 8, this Full Moon is a learning curve for all Leos to check their egos and see how much progress they can make in converting their egocentricity into becoming a precious child of God.
It would take a Rip Van Winkle who had been asleep not to realize that the Dark Side has fortified itself to maim and destroy those who disagree with its religious zealotry. Do not look to ISIS and terrorist Muslims as the source of all that is evil on earth. Look to our own supposed Christian nation to see the dark and dangerous agendas many of us prophesy.
No. Oh no. It is not the End of Times but rather the beginning of an era when one must find God within and love and not hate. We in the West have a lot to be sorrowful for. Leave your tiny kingdom and travel the world and see what the world elsewhere has to say about us in the Land of the Free and the Brave.
Fire Signs
ARIES (March 20 – April 19)–Osho advises you with its mastery of Participation. All indicators lead you into a place you have rarely been able to abide: Understanding that life this month is all about all of us not just you Mars-ruled leaders. You are experiencing a period of gestation because your ruling planet Mars enters into Aries on February 20. If you are asked for lightning rod answers this month tell your querants that they must give you time to consider. More mistakes are made from knee-jerk responses that benefit from alacrity. Don’t forget that upheaval and sudden inspiration are in Aries for a few more years. Learn discipline and the need to live with ideas and actions for awhile longer.
LEO (July 22 – August 22)–Aquarius is the sign that opposes you. Right? Rethink how you perceive opposition and see this Air Sign as balance. Aquarius is more apt to care about all of us and you Leos are oftentimes peacocks who think the world revolves around them. Leos are liable to want to be entertained at all times; now is the time to consider your actions and not be so quick to act without a roadmap. Perhaps since all the Holidays are behind us, pay bills and be more reflective than in pursuit of entertainment. Read a book. Take a yoga class. Have a massage and let the rest of the world go by.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20)–May I be the first to tell you that the Lord of Karma, Saturn entered your sign on Christmas Eve? You can go next door to your neighbor, Scorpio, and ask her what lessons she had to learn over the last two and a half years. You’ll get an ear-full. Saturn in your sign will require more than simply being a rambling rose. You will be forced to refine your thinking and your actions. You are fortunate that your ruling planet, Jupiter is in another Fire Sign, Leo, for a few more months. Don’t be too hasty to learn and move on from what the Universe is trying to teach you. There will be some pain and discomfort with what the Overlord has to teach you. Slow down and be ready to listen to the God within.
Earth Signs
TAURUS (April 20 – May 20)–Your entry this month involves a life-on-life’s-terms astrology lesson. The Aquarian Sun Cycle is never your time of the year. Air Signs and Fire Signs are not so compatible with your Earth types. You like a feet-on-the ground kind of celestial atmosphere. Air, ideas, can be fleeting and oftentimes ungrounded; Fire requires action and inspiration that are swift and committed. Since all signs are under the caution flag of Mercury retrograde, review what you value and who you are at soul level. Perhaps, stay away from any unfounded schemes to make more money to increase your financial security. Ask someone in need what you can do for them. As Kabbalah advises, “Receive the Light to share.”
VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)–Your ruling planet, Mercury, is in retrograde. It would be wise to review how you have been too picky, critical and analytical. Look inward for jealousies and imagined slights from others. Take an honest and thorough inventory to see where you have had unreasonable demands on yourself and others. Few people understand the torture you feel when your Ego begins to plant false ideas within you that are overwhelming and unbearable. Please learn this celestial lesson: your mind should be a servant, not a slave, to your thinking. Your Ego goes on an assignment to undermine and confuse you during Mercury retrograde. Sit and meditate. Write your way out of a dark and dangerous place. God is your source, not your Ego.
CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19)–You have now lost the Cosmic Connection of mutual reception with Saturn, your ruler, in Scorpio. What you continue to do is abide in the notion that your life is none of your business–it is God’s business. What your assignment always has to be is part architect and more rebuilder. You are known to be a bit cold and detached. Did you ever hear the old saw, “Too many cooks spoil the broth?” The same applies to structure, concepts and ideas. Capricorns must tolerate the capacity to be alone with thoughts and when it is time to act, the responsibility for what gets constructed rests with you Goats. “As you were,” says the God within. Slow and deliberate are your watchwords.
Air Signs
GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)–Since Mercury rules your Sun Sign, do not make any decisions that could upset the apple cart and cause you to rue the day you rushed monumental decisions during Mercury retrograde. It is important for you to review strategies and career directions that will take you where God wants you to go. Since Ego rules the Lower World you will be bombarded with lofty ideas and false starts. Meditate more and perhaps write your way out of cockamamie notions and wishful thinking. Exercise your body and rest the mind. So often you are apt to be a slave to the mind rather than permit the mind to serve you. After February 11 you will begin to think more clearly. Give it another week before you act, that way, no regrets.
LIBRA (September 23 – October 22)–You can learn a lot about fair play during this period of Mercury retrograde. Since you are admonished to be fairer and more balanced with your decisions, step out of the line of confusion that your Ego can put you in. Times are rather insane and impossible. Stay out of harm’s way. Although Mercury retrograde applies to you as well as all signs, practice restraint of tongue and pen. You are famous for slow and deliberate, both qualities which serve you this month. Aquarius is an air sign as is Libra. Let this be a time of reflection and editing your script called life. You will be in the fast lane in the next month.
AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 17)–Mercury is going retrograde at 17 degrees of Aquarius. Follow the guidelines for your serenity this month: meditate and contemplate; slow down and go inside yourself. There will be challenges that involve delays and some frustrations with blockages that you are sensing. Venus will be a soothing comfort to you for one week, January 22 – 28. Since you Water Bearers are an Air Sign with Mercury retrograde you will feel that your mind is ought to get you when this period of time is aiding and abetting your ability to make clear and conscious decisions. This is a time to draw nearer to the God within you and shut out the noise of fear and insecurity.
Water Signs
CANCER (June 21 – July 21)–Mood swingers and controllers born under the Sign of Cancer, be aware that Mercury retrograde applies to you too. But since you are ruled by the moon we have decided to give you the best days for you. You are better off January 22, 23; 26 and 27; 30, 31; February 4, 5; 10 and 11; 15 and 16. Most people do not understand since the Moon moves more quickly than any other planet it rules the days in which it is in certain signs. The dates given above will make you feel more centered and comfortable with where the moon is. You Crabs are more attuned when the Moon is in Water and Earth Signs. But the Aquarian Sun is never the optimum time of the year for you. Nurture and care for others which is what you do best.
SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)–Aren’t you glad that you are not dealing with the Karmic Overlord, Saturn, in your sign for another 30 years. Now the real work begins. To those of you who are obedient to God and have finely-tuned your intuition and healing properties, it is time to put them to use. If you have learned the lesson that revenge gets you nowhere, feel a sense of relief that you have been a good student of life. During Mercury retrograde write down what you can do to help the planet as well as being true to your Higher Self. You Scorpions have oftentimes gotten a bad rap, which many times you deserved. Look at 2015 as a new beginning, with a sense you are doing God’s work.
PISCES (February 18 – March 19)–You are about to receive some life changing inspiration that will bring peace and prosperity to you. With Mars in Pisces until February 20, let the Mercury retrograde draw you into the inner sanctum where all great ideas are born. Your sensitivity will begin to find a safe place in which to create and be affected by the intuition for which you are gifted. Do not try to make quick decisions or be misled with every nuance of ideas. Your Osho card for the month is Receptivity. Nothing will deter you if you keep your own wise counsel.

Alcoholism is a Family Disease
The Dysfunction of the Family Tree: When I work with an alcoholic or drug addict it is obvious to me that everyone hanging from the Family Tree played his or her part in the creation of the lone wolf black sheep. The whole toxic environment which spawned the addict is overlaid with blame and shame. In You’re Not Who You Think You Are, I build a solid case for how all members of the family are involved in the dysfunction that caused the compulsive and obsessive one to dive head-first into his addiction.

Your Ego Listens When Reason Speaks…And Here’s What Happens
As the myth goes, God created man out of thin air and then Eve popped out of his rib. And just when they were getting to know one another, Eve asked Adam to bite her apple. Then along came the snake. The apple and the snake are a carnival act–they are Frick and Frack in collusion. Make what you will of the yarn, but my Sherlock Holmes intuition tells me to find the truth of the matter in close examination of the apple and the creepy crawler. What Dr. Watson and I came up with was this. The apple of course is temptation. Bite it and you pay a huge price–entrapment. The snake is a doppelganger that represents the Ego, that nefarious shadow- self who always wants us to stay ensnared and beholden to his pleasure chest: food, booze, more, self, manipulation and control. Well, I could go on forever. I could stay with the vivisection of the birth and eons of treachery of the ego from the Garden of Eve to the present. But I won’t. What I will do is to tell you that each of us has an Ego, and although venerated by some like Freud, I feel it has to be dealt with. And the dealing is where I am taking you.

What Our Clients Are Saying About The Sedona Intensive
“The Sedona Intensive was a life changing experience for me. I had been searching for happiness and serenity for over 20 years and as a result of the Intensive I found that I was looking in all the wrong places. I not only experienced what happiness and serenity truly are but now understand the process needed to maintain and enhance that state of being. It doesn’t mean that I don’t experience the ups and downs of life but what it does mean is that those downs do not even come close to impacting me the way they used to. There is now a presence of mind that provides clarity and purpose that did not exist for me prior to the Intensive.
It is impossible to put a value on such a quality of life enhancing experience that the Sedona Intensive provides the person willing to do the work.It is by far the most significant thing I have done in my 62 years.
I came across a quote last week that summed up what I experienced and learned while attending the Sedona Intensive – ‘Once you stop clinging and let things be, you’ll be free’ -Bodhidharma (440ce – 528 ce), the Zen Teaching of Bodhidharma: A Bilingual Edition.”
