Dear
Visitor,
Oops
- is it May already?!
I'm
a little late on the uptake here. Have things on my mind... possible
job change (yay!)
We've
rolled straight into summer here in No.California. We are safe and
dry, thank the stars. I wish everyone delightful spring days,
flowers, birds, sunshine, and all that good stuff!
Peace
& Love!

How
to Treat your Taurus |
|
|
|
 Taurus
looks strong on the outside - sturdy and sensual, but is a truly
needy individual. What your Taurus needs, day in and day out is love
and nurturing - in the form of food and comfort, a peaceful or
artistic atmosphere, and music.
The
Taurus thrives on creature comforts and beauty. That is why money is
considered to be important to Taureans. It is merely a means to an
end! More money amounts to more cozy and luxurious surroundings for
our soft hearted friend.
If
you watch cows, you'll understand Taurus. Taurus looks tough and
unapproachable, but has those soft, sweetly soothing eyes that you
just have to love. Taurus eats, then mosies off to get comfortable
and wait patiently for attention to come her way. Taurus does not
want to work very hard, and will always find the most expedient way
to get what she wants - even if it means turning into a hot-tempered bull.
The
Taurus will fool you into believing that he's perfectly content, but
watch out! He patiently waits for what he needs, then - assuming you
are aware of his every desire - he blows up unexpectedly over some
tiny oversight when patience suddenly runs out. That's why it's good
to check in on your Taurus frequently to make sure he feels cared for
in every way... no sense testing him to the limit!
Feed
your Taurus with good food, romantic music, respectful pampering and
your undying devotion and loyalty. Don't make sudden moves or
changes, and don't disturb your Taureans peaceful or comfortable
moments. Remind your Taurus that you need pampering too - Taurus just
loves to spoil you! You will be rewarded with a passionate, romantic,
sensuous and eternal love.

How
to Treat your Gemini |
|
|
|
 Your
Gemini is a gem, a treasure trove of knowledge, wit and bouncy
friendship. The local happenings are a must to know. How to go about
doing almost anything? Just ask your two-for-the-price-of-one friend!
Quicksilver in his veins, wings on her shoulders, the world moves at
jet speed for your Gemini, and you must be able to think and react
quickly if you want to keep up!
Like
all Air signs, your Mercurial man or maiden thrives on information.
Emotional matters may be viewed philosophically, logically or with
refreshing humor. You won't find him sulking in a corner...
everything must be discussed... hiding won't do! Your Gemini is
especially attuned with friendship, and may seek many viewpoints and
opinions from a multitude of acquaintances. He can bend with the wind
- so do have patience.
You
may be confused at times when your Gemini changes her mind, makes
multiple plans or takes off suddenly. Gemini wants to befriend nearly
everyone, and may sometimes even tell a little white lie in order to
maintain good feelings. So, here are some pointers for keeping your sanity...
Feed
your Gemini with the joy of your laughter. Talk to your Gemini - be
open. Pull him back to you when he strays to other friends. Call him
on his tiny little deceptions. Allow your Gemini to have other
friendships, within reason. Be amazed and in awe of his knowledge!
Enjoy the fun and friendship your Gemini has to offer. Treat her with
genuine love and respect. Take joy in her wit and spare-of-the-moment
activities. You will be richly rewarded with the fruits of her mental
musings, fun times, delicious humor, silliness and true, true friendship.

The
Heirophant (Priest) in the Tarot |
|
|
|
 Taurus
is associated with the Priest in Tarot.
~
Counsellors ~
I
like the way this deck portrays the Priest and Priestess from a
distance - somewhat removed from others, objective and wise. These
people, in their purest form, are to be treated with the utmost
respect - they are humble servants of humanity. They represent our
counselors, guides, friends and advisors. The aura of spirituality
and even religious imagery that surrounds them is a deliberate
attempt to conjure up a feeling of awe, respect and reverence.
When
you ask a friend for advice, it is best to be honest about your
concerns - confess all - and to truly listen to what your advisor has
to say. That is assuming that this one is a worthy advisor! The
Priest and Priestess must truly care about you.
There
are some dangers inherent in these archetypes. The seeker may depend
too much on the advisor's help, thus relinquishing his/her own power
in the world. Or, the advisor may become too powerful or egotistical,
and forget the needs of those who seek her/him out. Some advisors
become very dogmatic and stern - lost in the details and particulars
of ritual practice. Even a psychologist or spiritual advisor can
become too pat and repetitive and lose site of the true objective. To
listen, understand, and advise with wisdom and kindness, and to
gently guide the seeker to find his/her own way is often a much more
powerful way of counseling than merely prescribing a few prayers,
practices or rituals. This is not to demean the power of ritual and
prayer - they certainly have their place, and may quite possibly be
the answer to everything!

Just
Some Thoughts |
|
|
|
I've
been thinking a lot about what's going on in the world, and I'm
beginning to feel more hope for the future - perhaps fueled by the
warmer days. Our western way of life is so out of control - our lives
are structured to be long-distance, non-communal, profit- oriented
and damaging to our environment and our bodies, yet there are so many
innovative people working on solutions. Let's visualize our leaders
embracing and investing in new ways that go back to the old ways,
when people were tribal and communities were self-sustaining and
lived in harmony with nature.
Warm
Blessings and Light,
~^..^~

Mewsings
from Venus & Mars... May 2006 |
|
 |
|
Mars
in Cancer... April 14 to June 3 is fiercely protective male
energy. Your man can become a real warrior for family, home and
country. He could be sensitive and brooding, or intensely silly -
depending on the changing Moon.
Venus
in Aries... May 3 to 29 is independent and self- reliant. This
Venus does not tolerate being told what to do unless advice is
offered with consideration and respect for her personal direction.
Allow her to go her own way, and see/feel the truth of her being.
Appreciate her many talents! She is certain to get to the point
quickly, and move confidently closer to her true goals.
This
Venus can clash with Mars as he may want to reel her in and keep her
closer to home - tethered to family. Don't do it fellows - see beyond
the walls and into the future - she may be headed someplace wonderful
that will benefit everyone in the long run.
