January Eclipse Info & Power of Juice Cosmic Community
What is on the Agenda for Feb 4th at The Power of Juice?
#InspiringMessagesfromSpirit! 7:15pm-9pm. POJ Cosmic Community Meeting! Try one of Brigid Rafferty's new fresh, raw juices or some raw cocao chocolate balls made by Nola Ganem. Bring your favorite deck of cards! I will bring my Fairy Cards and my Animal Spirit Cards. We will be choosing cards and reading them for each other as a group, supporting one another with Inspiring Messages from Spirit! Make a new friend! As sensitive empaths and healers, we are "givers" and need community and support in order to continue giving. Belonging to a tribe of kindred spirits is a powerful, joyful and sacred way to live. I am very blessed to know all of you have attended. Anyone can pop in and stay as long or short as you like. I can’t wait to see your smiling faces again.
Reminder: We are not meeting tonight. Our next Cosmic Community meeting at POJ will be on the first Monday of each month starting Feb 4th from 7:15p-9pm. Free. Fun. Make a friend!
#VedicallySpeaking: I hope this Solar Eclipse weekend is treating all of you gently. You may notice you are sleeping longer than usual and feeling more sensitive (starting yesterday). This feeling may last until a few days after the Lunar eclipse on Jan 21, but we will all experience it a little differently. We are in the beginning of the 2-week eclipse season, which happens about twice per year. During this season, we learn lessons in "non-attachment” because anything we start and anyone we meet may not last. Living in the moment is key to happiness anyway. It’s a time of purification where significant events may be front and center. Of course, there are always exceptions, but this is the general “stellar weather forecast”. Maybe that’s where the expression “a season and a reason” started?
During an eclipse, the molecules in the air are more tomasic and rajasic (heavy & chaotic). To balance that, choose activities and thoughts that create more (sattvic) gentleness, sweetness and peacefulness in your life during this 2 week eclipse season like meditation, being inward, self-care, massage, steam, sauna, gently yoga, read inspiring books, clean eating, more hugs, more sleep and more kindness. During this time, the veil between the dimensions ((heavenly-like/earthly-like) are thinner meaning we can let go of things that no longer serve us easier and draw in the experiences that support our joy. We can also have visits from "the other side", departed loved ones hopefully and feel more connected to the sacred, divine side of our beings. Close your eyes and listen. Smile inside.
I'll be offering readings at POJ this Thursday and Saturday Noon-5pm.

Sagittarius at Newport Living and Lifestyles 2018
Sagittarius: Late November Thru December 2018
Jupiter rules Sagittarius and Jupiter is sitting in Mar’s sign of Scorpio. Saturn is sitting in Sagittarius, which brings out the truth behind religions, core beliefs and ethical principals and values. When we add these factors up, we get a very Scorpion flavor of how Saturn will affect Sagittarius! This gives rise to potential religious and ethical scandals, debates, confusion, hidden truths behind religious leaders may surface and some of our core beliefs may be shaken or challenged.
With Retrograde Mercury sitting in Scorpio---which happens on Nov 16 until Dec 6th----the scandals can be based on miscommunication and misunderstandings as well, since when Mercury goes retrograde (backwards), it can stir up confusion. All these things can happen on a personal level as well as a global level. Hold off on having family conversations around religion and politics at Thanksgiving this year because it could end up causing more trouble than it’s worth. It’s a transformational alignment, so if transformation is what you are seeking, then don’t be afraid to be confrontational, assertive and get your point across. If peace is what you are seeking, then lay low and stay in the outskirts of such heated debates while communing with family and friends over the holidays.
Saturn is much like the police, so since Oct 2017—Jan 2020, many people with a Sagittarius Sun may have felt policed somehow someway in their lives. Saturn brings delays, hardships, lessons, obstacles, discipline and structure, so that we can develop more patience, wisdom, purity, and carve out the time to get practical matters in place and finish things we started. Saturn helps us stay on our path. All you people with a Sag Sun will feel huge relief in Jan 2020 when it goes into it’s own sign of Capricorn. Use this time to police your own selves by being disciplined with a healthy routine, eating a purifying clean diet, finding time to meditate daily, even if for 15 mins, being more grateful for healthy structures and people that help you stay on target, as well as checking things off your To Do list. Maybe you have been wishing to publish a book but haven’t been disciplined enough about finishing it? This is your time. Saturn will help you publish it and retrograde mercury will support you as well, since it will help slow things down for you to carve out time to write.
Friday, November 16:
The Sun enters sidereal Scorpio: The sign of Scorpio is transformational and Sun signifies fathers, government, leaders, teachers, the soul, among other things, but it also governs the heart, bones and small intestines. Nov 16th is not a good time to start anything new, as all planetary transits are delicate and can create vulnerability. Instead, it would be a good day to reach out to your dear ole dad, for example, to say hello and tell him you love him. You could even have a deep and meaningful conversation with him on this day, but be sure to carefully choose your words since Mercury is going retrograde on this same day.
While Sun is in Scorpio, take care of your heart by getting plenty of cardiovascular exercise daily----I recommend a 45-minute brisk walk in the fresh air and sunshine. Take plenty of Vitamin D3 for your bones and drink a fresh green drink to support your small intestines. Give your intestines a chance to digest by not diluting your digestive fire by refraining from drinking too much liquid while eating a large meal. Drink your liquids 20 mins before each meal instead of during. Release excess heat from the Sun in Scorpio by including spinal twists and back bends, like cobra, in your yoga or stretching routines.
Friday, November 23:
The November Full Moon takes place at just past midnight at 12:38AM EST in sidereal Taurus in the Star of Krittika . The effects of this Full Moon may be especially energizing. Here in very early Taurus the Moon nears its most-powerful ‘exaltation’ point within the zodiac. The lunar mansion of Krittika (‘The Cutter’) is symbolized as a sharp, razor-like instrument that has meanings of decisiveness, abundant energy, larger than life goals and projects on a mass-scale. Full moons are a great time to socialize, do things that require energy, say a prayer of intention or gratitude by the shore at sunset, and take a walk in the moonshine to help quell inflammation and anxiety.
Capricorn News on Newport Living & Lifestyles
Capricorn, the tenth sign of the zodiac, is all about hard work. In numerology, the number 10 can represent groups of people, as well as work, which brings much success. Those with Sun in Capricorn are hard workers, as they love building success and structuring finances. Some people can label this as work-a-holism, but if you love what you do, then it can be called passion. They are both ambitious and determined. Life is one big project as they have a businesslike approach to most everything. They are practical, methodical, realistic and pragmatic, dedicated and sometimes stubborn.
The Sun moved into Sag yesterday until Jan 14th, 2019. Sag is also the real estate in the sky where Saturn, Ruler of Capricorn is, sitting. They are enemies. On the bright side, the sun can illuminate ideas, secrets and theories and provide direction. On the dark side, the sun can burn, cause inflammation emotionally and physically. Medically, when sun and Saturn sit together, it produces a hot wind. The remedy would be to reduce inflammatory foods, as well as be extra kind to your father, who is the significator of the sun. If your father has passed, then you can tell him you love him in your prayers.
Dec 21 Solstice in Newport Event at Stone Tower:
John Dee, 1527, was an English mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, occult philosopher, and advisor to Queen Elizabeth I. He devoted much of his life to the study of alchemy, divination, and Hermetic philosophy.
This year on the Winter Solstice, December 21, the sun rises at 7:25 AM.
From around 7:45 to 8:00, the sun, rising in the east, shines through the south window, through the tower, through the west window, and is observed from the northwest corner of the park.
An hour later, from 9:00 to 9:15, the rectangular beam of sunlight coming through the south window illuminates the egg-shaped rock near the center of the northwest arch on the interior of the tower.
All this is assuming there are no clouds on the eastern horizon. As the word "solstice" actually means " stand-still," these illuminations can be witnessed for a few days before and a few days after the actual day of the solstice.
The best bet is to check the weather as the solstice approaches. The day when a perfectly sunny morning is predicted is the best day to show up. And be sure to bundle up, as it's nippy at dawn. It's never safe to look at the sun directly, or with a 35mm film camera, which has internal mirrors. However, it is safe to look at the image of the sun on your digital camera, or at its image projected on the ground.
Last year 75 people showed up for the Sunrise Solstice at the Tower event in Touro Park. And the more, the merrier.
Witness for yourself how the tower celebrates the turning point in the annual dance between the earth and the sun. After December 21, days start getting longer. That’s enough reason to celebrate!
Ekadasi is a Sanskrit term referring to the number 11.
Ekadasi is the 11th day of the waxing and waning of the moon, which occurs twice each month. According to the Hindu scriptures, Ekadasi and the movement of the moon has a direct correlation with the human mind. It is believed that during Ekadasi, our mind attains maximum efficiency giving the brain a better capacity to concentrate. Ekadasi is the most blessed day of the month where the body mind spirit complex can more easily purify itself of toxins.
Fasting from water for 36 hours is the most preferred way to fast on Ekadasi, but should only be done with professional guidance. Such fasts should be broken the next morning preferably with an organic nut milk or unpasteurized raw milk. Otherwise, the next best fast is can be done by only eating only fruits and vegetables, but no grains. This holistic ritual is aligned with the body’s natural and intrinsic detoxifying mechanism that becomes elevated on the 11th day after the new and full moon. This ancient theory is based on the circadian and astro-biorythms.
This ritual extends the telomeres in the body, supporting a long life. Telomeres are the longevity factor. The longer your telomeres, the longer you live. According to Ayurveda, when one fasts, all the imbalances within the body become balanced. Fasting on the day of Ekadasi can give the same results to fasting for 1 week at another time during the month. Ekadasi fasting magnifies and intensifies the purification process.

Vidya : Science, Art & Magic
The Sanskrit language has one word describing the blend of magic, art and science. Yes, one word = Vidya. Since it's one word, we can surmise the great sages, who cognized Sanskrit centuries ago, also known as the language of Nature, knew that art, science and magic were inseparable. That said, the science of the cards is a true Vidya, just like Jyotish or any other form of astrology where intuition is heightened from seeing the math, sacred symbols and resonate frequency of each person, their thoughts/feelings and every experience. I blend my knowledge of Jyotish with the cards, as they align harmoniously.
Come learn the hidden language of the cards with me and understand yourself, others and your life more deeply. Explore the mathematical formulas, ancient, genetic archetypal stories that live in our DNA and discover your stardust origins. I'll help you mitigate any troubles you may be facing using sound (mantra) and other remedial measures, as well as help you move past health, money and/or relationship issues. If you only want to hear the "good news", I can do that too! In my eyes, all news is good news in the end :-). It's all in the "delivery and interpretation".
Let's open your personal "Book of Time", based on your birthday values, and together, we can translate your "stories". Let me teach you how to simultaneously live in the moment and change your story, while decoding the many options that may unfold in your future and forgive the past. Time is the illusion anyway. Love is all there is, right now and always.
If you want a reading, book me at the link below or if you want to learn how to read the science of the cards, join my webinar starting Oct 21, 2018 or come to Newport, RI to study in person with me every Friday night starting Oct 12 for 8 Fridays. I may offer one free introductory webinar evening on this card system as well, so stay tuned for that announcement.

Natural Awakening’s Editorial
With anxiety, stress and autoimmune diseases on the rise in our culture today, there is a strong need for qualified integrative body-mind-spirit counselors, therapists and medical experts. As the Dalai Lama stated, “The planet does not need more successful people. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, story-tellers and lovers of all kinds.” Imagine all the folks who are uncertain of what career path to take in the healing arts, but wish to help, serve and create the space for others to heal themselves? The healing arts has a vast array of modalities that could make your head spin, and most don’t have the time, money or desire to become doctors or psychiatrics. Many are considering careers in Life Coaching, Massage Therapy, Yoga Therapy, Astrology or Reiki Healing because it’s affordable, rewarding and attainable inside 1 year. With celebrities like Dr. Oz, Oprah and Yogi Cameron touting persuasive testimonials to the power of Ayurveda, it is fast becoming a household word creating a demand for local, qualified Registered Ayurvedic Health Counselors.
Ayurveda is the time-proven body-mind-spirit science of longevity and digestion and is recognized by Atlanta’s World Health Organization as one of the 3 top medical systems in the world. Did you know that the USA represents only 4.4% of the world's population? India, where Ayurveda has its roots, represents 20% of the world's population. Ayurveda has been practiced there for over 5,000 years and is the sister science to yoga, while currently finding its place in Ivy League universities across the country such as Harvard. Ayurveda understands disease is not spontaneously procured; it is always produced. It is acquired by a lifestyle that is not aligned with the laws of nature.
This comprehensive ancient form of 'Life Coaching', which includes training in yoga, massage, medical astrology, metaphysics and spirit/energy medicine can be learned online in the comfort of your home in your pajamas, affordably and under one year at the Sacred Stone Academy of Massage and Ayurveda (S.A.M.A.) Online Program beginning Oct 2018.
The divine powers that Be are not letting people who were born with the gift of healing to fall thru the cracks or get sidetracked anymore since our planet desperately needs qualified body-mind-spirit counselors, healers and therapists. Ayurveda is wonderful solution that promotes more meditation, not more medication and insists that when diet is wrong, medicine is of no use and when the diet is correct, medicine is of no need. One of the worlds leading Ayurvedic doctors, Dr. Vasant Lad, BAMs, told his class in 1996, “The root cause of all disease is staying in a confused, toxic or undefined relationship.” This is where Ayurveda recognizes that disease begins in the emotional body and manifests later in the physical body.
If you are looking for a new direction, career path, a way to serve or want to simply learn how to heal yourself and your family, consider studying Ayurveda and make a difference, one person at a time. For more info visitàsacredstonehealing.com/ayurvedic-health-counselor-info
Thank you.

Self-Discovery Within a Tiny, Unbound Book?
The original playing cards were actually once a stack of tiny, loose-leaf, unbound pages (perhaps papyrus, seaweed or banana leaves?) containing sacred geometrical shapes, resonate mathematical frequencies, astrological symbols and archetypal faces divinely designed to expand consciousness, predict the future and serve as a "book of time". Each tiny page (card) decodes the mysteries of our individual lives based on one's birthday, through ancient mathematical formulas aligned in perfect harmony with the laws of nature.
Hidden and woven into the matrix of our cosmology and reflected within the Kabbalah, the Zohar, the Zoroastrian and Jewish esoteric traditions as well as within this tiny unbound book, are 52 sacred harmonics and symbols, aligning with the 52 weeks of each year. The number 52 adds up to 7. There are 7 planets, not including the nodes of the moon, which are actually intersections, not planets, though Vedic astrology often includes them as planet-like entities. If we are microcosms of the macrocosm, then there are 7 planets within our very own DNA, right down to the quantum level. “As above; so below.” We can also discover 4 suits matching our 4 seasons, 12 months aligned with the 12 court cards, 13 lunar cycles each year and 13 cards within each suit. When we add up the solar values of all the cards, we get exactly 365 1/4; the same days inside one year. Can this be a coincidence? This is a mathematically precise and stellar system that gives our prayers more clarity, our thoughts more power, and our free will a wider platform. There is nothing evil, or “gypsy” about it unless the reader has evil intentions, of course.
"We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.” -Randy Pausch
This tiny book has it's own symbolic language which takes the form of sacred shapes and numbers outlining and defining each of our personal blueprints, genetic coding, gifts, challenges and potential life experiences based on consciousness and the magic of the moment. This language of nature was cognized to help us avert the danger before it arrives and be prepared for the ups and downs, ebbs and flows, sacred contractual relationships and experiences as well as, how to best make daily-informed decisions while brightening our intuition. This system has increased my intuitive confidence, which is my hope for each of my clients. Before each session, I pray with my client that THEY receive clarity, direction, healing, mental and emotional peace and increased intuitive abilities. Each card we play and how we play that card, creates the fabric of our future and has a ripple effect impacting the akashic collective consciousness.
Because of the insights I have received from this card system, I have been able to fully forgive and understand those who have hurt me. Consequently, I am able to step out of “victim-mentality” and into a “unity consciousness” mentality. Once we fully understand this tiny book as it relates to ourselves, we can begin to understand that life is "play". The great mystics from India refer to this as the “Lila” of life, a Sanskrit term meaning the playful relationship between the absolute field of all possibilities and the relative world. This is why there are two main card templates on which this sacred system was cognized thousands of years ago: 1. Absolute Spirit Spread. 2. Relative Earth Spread. Having awareness of these two templates, how to dance eloquently between them, as well as how/where our individual solar values (mathematical numbers) “sit” inside this time-space continuum, we can begin to transcend illusion and suffering, live in gratitude and play in the “Lila” of life with more joy.
Our solar values can be determined by this simple mathematical formula: Take the numeric value of the month of your birthday twice and add it together. Then, add the numeric value of the day you were born to that figure. Then subtract the number 55. That will take you to your “solar value”. Example: If you were born on November 29: 11 + 11 = 22. Add 29 = 51. Deduct 55 = -4. Each card owns a solar value. Most values will come to a “negative”, but that’s ok. A person born on November 29 will be born to play the 4 of hearts card in this life, however this person would not be limited to this harmonic only. Since each card is actually a harmonic “in procession”, there are many options based on this card, from which to express, depending on consciousness.
The figure of 55 represents the “sun”, whose numeric value is 1, which is what we get when we add 5 + 5. There are other reasons beyond the scope of this article why we choose to use a double 5 instead of a number 1 for this formula. This knowledge can give rise to awareness of “what is” so that we may love “what is” and that “knowing” is transcendental such that finally we can live in the heart like a child.
“In the sunlight of awareness, all things are sacred.”
-- Thich Nat Han
We are actors on our own stage of life and have assigned a role (card) to each of the "people" on our stage. Our stage is dynamic, so the saga continues, following the procession of the 52 harmonics. Most of us could win academy awards! What a show! Imagine our ancestors in the audience, giving us standing ovations and cheering us onward? Because of its power, this divination system was persecuted in the Middle Ages by the church. It was seen as a threat to the state, kings, queens, religious leaders and the parliament and assigned as “evil” so that the masses would remain vulnerable, dumbed down and instead live in fear of the kingdom and it’s leadership. Cards were associated with gypsies simply because the higher echelon of society faced gossip or the demise of their status due to the on-going persecutions and attempts to vanquish this science of truth. The gypsies didn't care about their status. Consequently, the cards were hidden in plain site under the guise of game playing like "go fish", bridge, poker, and so on. The magic of this tiny book remained divinely protected and managed to survive the threat of complete banishment!
This sacred knowledge was originally gifted to us by heavenly beings thousands of years ago, or some say enlightened extraterrestrials and is now making a welcome return to our planet so we may finally understand whom we are why we are here. This tiny book was written for Seekers of the Truth, Gatekeepers of Love, who, uninterested in the politics of organized religion, are instead passionate about bringing more light to the planet and marching to the beat of their own drum. Finally, this ancient knowledge is being resurrected today so the people on this planet may begin to take accountability, self-actualize, soften, smile, become empowered, love more, stop taking things personally, dance with gratitude and forgive our worst enemies who are really reflections of "ourselves" as the role (card) we assigned to them on our stage of life. Ultimately, in the final act, we can learn to forgive and love ourselves.
"Until we make the unconscious conscious, it will rule our lives and we will call it fate."
-- Carl Jung
