By Lena Stevens

This is a super moon intensifying the influence of the themes which are focused on right path, right relationship, right intentions, justice and commitments to your truth and ideals. Because of the intensity, you could be reactive around reactions and projections of others. The challenge will be to stay engaged and connected while staying neutral at the same time. There is growth and healing in allowing vulnerability to drive new intentions, to purge the old, and forgive the old wounds whose residue has held you back from moving forward into a bigger life. We are at the brink of expanding our dreams and our experience of life in a really beautiful way. We can push through our limitations through action, discipline and commitment. What stands in the way is our own stubborn position of blame, being right and not willing to forgive. So take a courageous step this New Moon and allow yourself to complete the wounded chapters of your story so you can turn the page.

The other aspect of this moon is support. As mentioned in the forecast, the universe will support what it recognizes as a true commitment. Look for ways during this time to solidify those commitments. Always honor the support you already have and reflect on ways you can also be supportive to others. A good way to spend this New Moon is to be around important relationships, focus on balance and boundaries and your own truth, and refine your intentions with commitment. Have some fun and be around beauty.

Blessings,
Lena

FEBRUARY 2018 FORECAST: The main theme for February is “UNFOLDING” ~ Feb. 4, 2018

Lena Stevens – This month we examine our relationship with time, with impatience, with the masculine willful part of ourselves that always wants to push things through and make things happen, our addiction to stress and drama, and our fear of not being and doing enough. Whew!

The good news is that as these habits surface, we are given an alternative way of approaching the way we intend, put into action and manifest what we want. It is allowing the “unfolding” of what we put into action instead of forcing a result through pushing, hurrying and efforting. The huge collective fear pattern called “not enough time” is in our face. It is deep and it is cultural. “Time is money”, “hurry, hurry, hurry” or you will miss out on something, be the first in line, the first to win, the best at everything etc. We are competitive instead of cooperative and our measure of success is based on comparison instead of personal satisfaction. We have become a society where our hearts can’t keep up and our adrenals are shot. We are almost never in present time always worrying about the future and trying to stay in control and ahead of the game with hypervigilance and the effort caused by overworking.

We have an opportunity here to examine how we have been living our lives and to begin to make some changes in our attitudes, beliefs, relationship with time and our fear of not being enough. Complete change will not happen overnight, however you will see results that are almost magical if you begin to practice an alternative way of approaching your life and your action.

We begin this month in the wake of the powerful super full moon/eclipse of the last day of January. We are still under its influence as we begin the month and we can use its wave of energy to launch this time for ourselves in a good way. If you have not spent a bit of time aligning your intentions, you can still take advantage of the eclipse portal to do so. It is best if you can include the intention of ease, clarity, right timing, and support for patience and perfect alignment for your actions to be effortless.

The goal this month is to allow everything to “unfold” as a flower unfolds into a full bloom from a bud. You cannot force a bud to bloom before its time, and you never know exactly how that full bloom is going to look. We, and many of our intentions, are at the bud stage now, and allowing the “unfolding” in their right time will take some shifting in the way we have always approached the way we do things.

The Full Lunar Eclipse of January 31 has opened a time frame that is bookended by a partial solar eclipse mid-month. It creates a perfect structure of time for observation, review, and change. Since eclipses are always about supporting change we should always take the opportunity they present to keep things moving in our lives. We are also moving from a year of the fire rooster in Chinese astrology to the year of the earth dog on February 16. This shifts our container of growth from fiery reactions that stimulate change, to working with more stability and grounding to anchor new ways of “being” and “doing” in our lives.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY

This is a tremendous time and opportunity for growth. The biggest challenge and one that will reap the most rewards in the end will be to examine and change your relationship with time. Even if you are not usually an impatient person you may experience being impatient this month. It is up for review for everyone both personally and culturally. It is the fear of not having enough time and when it is also connected with a lack of self-esteem, it takes on the flavor of the fear of not being good enough to actually manage your time.

This is a huge issue and the more work you can do on your relationship with time this month, the more you will see the results of the magic of synchronicity, right timing and things just manifesting in their own time (like magic). The results can be almost instantaneous. Ask and you shall receive. The key is to be receptive to receiving without judgment about how the goods are delivered and without the obsessive worry that you won’t somehow get them.

If you are struggling, pull back from the struggle, reset your intentions with a better alignment, and then let go of the control of “how” and “when”. If you start your day with the attitude that you will allow the day to “unfold” in a magical way for you and then remind yourself of this several times during the day, you will soon see the results of this new approach. Make it fun, make it an adventure, an experiment, and practice patience around others and your own fears. If doubt surfaces around your ability, push it aside and stay with the feeling of magic instead. A key is to stay out of your head and always trust your heart instead.

RELATIONSHIPS

Relationships this month will either serve as a good container for the growth and change that is possible or they will test you. If they test you, it will be in the form of not being on the same page. Watch the expectations of others as they may go against what you are trying to achieve. Especially your work relationships may be operating on a different wavelength than you. You may have a boss that insists on doing business as usual or a partner that expects you to act as you always have. This may make it challenging for you to stay with your intentions to allow things to simply unfold. The best advice is to stay out of any arguments about the “right” way of doing things and set some good boundaries against other people’s beliefs.

If someone is impatient with you, don’t buy into it. At the same time, watch your impatience with others and allow them to experience their own right timing. Relationship dynamics always include expectations and it is important to acknowledge when you have expectations of others as well as when you are triggered by what you identify as expectations of others directed at you. In a way, you cannot be attached to what others may think of you or how they may judge you. There is a lot of freedom in releasing that attachment but it does require that you stay out of self-deprecation that may try to influence you to cave to another’s agenda over yours.

Remember that relationships are not only with other people. You have your relationship with time, with your support, with your allies, with yourself and with nature to also consider as you navigate this month. So, if your relationships with other people are challenged, you can always turn to these other ones to work with better results.

HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY

Impatience and the habit of efforting and pushing to get things done is very hard on the body especially the adrenals. Since one of the lessons this month is about shifting that around, you may get messages from your body about what is out of balance and where changes need to be made. If you have been overworking, your body will tell you. You may even experience a crash of some sorts, a wake up call to pay attention to how you are using your action. As with any other area of your life, allowing the unfolding in right time is a lesson in patience and trust.

How many of us just take medication when we come down with the flu so we can keep going in our work and daily tasks? There is no glory in this “pushing through”. The better way is to honor and take the time necessary for rest and recuperation. The body heals itself if the space is created. What restricts and limits that space is impatience, expectation and a disregard for what the body needs.

This is the month to really learn to listen to your body and to give it what it needs. Discovering a new relationship to time may change your cycles, anything from sleep to exercise to attention span etc. Everyone is unique and different and we should not try and all fit into the same mold. Some need more sleep than others. For some sitting meditation works and for others one that includes movement is more effective. Some are fed through the silence of alone time and others need the energy of others for inspiration and support.

This can be a month of discovering your unique needs and to establish your own practices and cycles that really fit those needs. If others disapprove, so be it. Set your boundaries and don’t let the judgement of others sway you to conform to anything that does not serve you individually. And remember to take “time” for yourself and to allow right timing to unfold in everything related to health and the body. Challenges this month will mostly be around energy levels, adrenals and viruses.

BUSINESS, PARTNERSHIPS, AND PROJECTS

The challenge this month for anyone who runs a business that has staff is to get everyone on the same page of setting intentions and then allowing for right timing to take over. It is difficult to trust that if something is meant to be, it will manifest easily and effortlessly. Since we are used to being competitive and are imprinted with business practices that are hypervigilant around being successful based on completion, sitting back and allowing the unfolding of intention goes against what we have been taught is necessary for that success.

So, the change is to be clear about what you want and the direction of your projects and business and then bring in support and get all the details handled. The next step is to relax about timing and watch what is meant to be unfold. If it doesn’t then perhaps the motivation needs to be examined and the intentions realigned.

It is a good month to begin something new especially during this eclipse window. Just make sure that if you do start something new whether a business, an aspect of your business, a project or even just an idea you have, that you start it from a place of right motivation, serving yourself first. Never do something just because you think others expect it of you or that it will earn you points with others or make you more acceptable. You have to do it because you love it and it will bring you great joy and satisfaction. This is the key to having something successfully unfold for you rather than pushing it through.

Wouldn’t it be great if all your endeavors manifested easily and without effort? Effort and hardship usually always indicates that there is something not quite right about the intention in the first place. The intention may be polluted by considerations that are not in your best service or interest. Part of the opportunity this month is to really examine the motivations behind all of your intentions especially ones that are related to work, projects and business. Why are you doing what you are doing and for whom? And remember to never make decisions or choices out of fear!

ENVIRONMENT

The year of the earth dog begins February 16. This is an earth year and we have already experienced a number of earthquakes on the planet. Pachamama is stretching her joints and realigning her skeleton and position to accommodate a new energy that has been uploading on this planet now for some time. This realignment is creating some chaos and unexpected change in weather patterns and will continue to adjust itself to something new that is yet unpredictable.

We have suggested many a time that flexibility and acceptance is the best approach to any of your plans that include the weather. In this month of “unfolding”, allowing the weather to unfold as it will without the attempt to control or second guess how it may manifest on any given day, will be a key to eliminating worry, resistance and negative reactions when the weather does not seem to cooperate with your plans.

We are likely to have more earth activity, be it mudslides, rock slides, avalanches, earthquakes and other earth based phenomena. This is all part of necessary movement supporting change especially during the eclipse window in the first half of the month.

Looking at your personal environment, paying attention to the details, and taking baby steps to continue the process of decluttering can help fill the time and support the practice of patience. If you have a project that involves your personal environment, you can practice setting the intention keeping self -service in mind, and then give the management of timing over to spirit and a higher intelligence.

DATES AND TIME FRAMES

February 1-7: On the heels of the Lunar eclipse and full moon of January 31, we are in the window of potent energy that supports change. It is a perfect time frame to begin the practice of changing your relationship to time and to realign your intentions to allow for the action of “unfolding” instead of action with effort. You can still practice determination and commitment around what you want, as long as you give the “when” and “how” of its manifesting the ultimate freedom of right timing.

It is also a good time frame to do a reality check on your motivations for what you are intending. If they are not in service to you, or if they are based on other people’s expectations or your fear of judgment in any way, it is a good time to examine and realign regardless of what others may think or how they will react. There is a need to tell the truth about what is so, as it is the truth that will help you realign your motivations. This may bring up fear of judgment, failure or change. Be patient with yourself and with others. It may feel chaotic and intense at times, but the upheaval is necessary for change to occur.

If you are feeling ungrounded and confused, work with the earth as it is the element of the year. Give your confusion and your struggle over to the earth and ask for grounding and the wisdom of the earth to anchor your heart. Then trust that you will get what you need. If you are struggling with health challenges of any kind, this is the time frame to get plenty of rest and to recharge yourself. If you have been overworking, you will feel it as a message from spirit to slow down!

February 8-14: A feeing of better alignment, balance and ease marks this time frame. Provided you have been present with what has come up for you in the past week, this week is about refining and anchoring new attitudes and practices that support you. Some of what you intend will begin to unfold in a beautiful way. Problems and challenges that seemed unsurmountable suddenly lose their intensity and become manageable under a new perception. You have the opportunity to feel really supported as you begin to allow yourself to receive. When a bud receives sunlight, clean air and enough water and nutrients from the earth, the bud will automatically unfold into a full bloom in its own time and turn into something beautiful and unique.

So, use this time to stay out of judgment, refine your priorities and witness the unique unfolding of your personal bud into a bloom. If it does not happen as you have imagined or intended, be grateful, inspired and delighted by its eccentricity instead of disappointed because you expected it differently. We are still in the window of potent energy bookended by the two eclipses so anything you do or practice during this time is potentiated and more easily anchored into a permanent state.

February 15: New Moon and partial Solar Eclipse is Thursday, February 15 at 2:06 PM Mountain Standard Time (MST). This is the book end to the first eclipse and can be a difficult energy for some of you if you happen to be in the middle of any kind of conflict. You could be conflicted by your own confusion or a relationship or an important decision you need to make. If this is you, use the new moon/eclipse as an ally to help you punch through this uncomfortable place of limbo.

This is a moon aligned with community and the support and help of others as well as your unseen allies and spirit. So, don’t be afraid to ask for it. And as usual for every new moon, it is a great time to touch in with your intentions to make sure they are still what you want. A new moon is a still point and this one is good one to experience the stillness that aligns right timing.

February 16: We enter the year of the Earth Dog on this first day of the Chinese New Year. There is lots of information online about the year of the Earth Dog for those of you interested in more details. We find it is significant in the support of good fortune without effort and the themes of working with the earth, grounding and the balance that comes with trust.

February 15-21: We are antsy and impatient for things to get going. We can almost be in the mind state of giving up our good intentions of waiting for right timing. The false personality is trying to have a fiesta with your self-deprecation and impatience. The grumpier you get the happier your obstacles and false personality are. Don’t let them win. It is a discipline to resist the temptation to say, “Oh the hell with it, I give up and I’m going back to my old habits because at least I saw results there even if they were had for a huge price”. If you let the false personality win, you will have to go back to square one and it will not feel good at all. So, know that this will be a time of challenge and do whatever you can to ignore the temptation of giving in. Stick to your commitment to right timing and the allowing of unfolding. It will pay off in the end.

February 22-28: We have come through the birth canal, birthed ourselves into a new landscape, and hopefully you are experiencing yourself in a new light with a new-found sense of being able to relax more and have things come to you instead of efforting to manifest them. Enjoy the magical synchronicities and the really amazing opportunities that have hopefully come your way in easy and unexpected ways. If this is not you at this time, never fear, timing is different for everyone and some of you may have more to process and more to change and therefore the experience of the other side may be longer in coming.

Some of you may not yet quite believe that things can be this easy. Ask and you shall receive as long as you trust that what is coming your way is right and for you. Sometimes we can get into some confusion when we let our minds get in the way of the “knowing”. So, trust your heart when it says yes and question your mind when it says anything. If there is too much mind chatter, rely on some quiet and silence away from others opinions to get the clarity you need. Ask for help when you need it and most of all enjoy the process of discovery. After all, life is an adventure and we are always refining the plan to accommodate our recent growth!

Note: there is no full moon in February. The next full moon is on March 1

Have a great month!

Lena Stevens – The main theme for October is BALANCE ~ October 8, 2016

We have been through several months of ups and downs, emotional extremes, fits and starts, breakthroughs and changes, despairs and elations, successes and failures. We are a little road weary and slightly hyper vigilant about “keeping it all together”. So the theme this month is BALANCE because that is what we all desperately need at this time and the influences of the times support it.It is a time to carve out space for assimilation and integration of what we have gone through in the past months of both conscious and subconscious changes and much personal growth. There is an edge to this month and personal boundaries will be tested as we strive for more balance in our lives. It will be important not to over react but rather to see balance in terms of boundaries more as a dance than a hard edge. It is a great month to observe and tackle any addictive behaviors, black and white belief systems, extreme mood swings, irrational fears and attachments to anything in the past.

We have an opportunity to start a new chapter this month launched by a beautiful new moon on September 30. This new chapter needs to have us looking forward not back. RELATIONSHIP is another theme for this month and works with BALANCE by inviting us to bring everything that is out of balance into right relationship.

What does BALANCE look like?

There is balance between doing and being. We all know what “doing” looks like and some of us have been “doing” way too much. The irrational fear is that if you loosen up the “doing” somehow everything will fall apart. We have a somewhat erroneous belief that the state of “being” is where nothing happens. It is a vacation, a stepping out of or a withdrawal from life. It certainly can be that however the positive expression of the state of “being” can be very active where a lot happens. We should never underestimate the power of assimilation and integration. Most of us carry so much undigested and unassimilated material that it is a wonder we can focus on anything.

So it will be important to pay attention to your “doing” and “being” states this month and to bring them into a better relationship with each other so you can be more balanced. “Being “states include meditation, prayer, being with nature as you walk or sit, silence, rest, sleep, being receptive, listening, and just simply consciously “being” with others, your food, your environment, your cup of coffee etc. Being is also Presence so practice being present and bring that presence into all of your “Doing”. It will make the doing more focused, efficient and balanced.

(There is a good exercise for the state of BEING on our monthly support Mp3.)

Another area of working with balance is to bring more moderation into your life. Look at any place you experience extremes from energy levels to emotional reactions to addictive behaviors to overworking, overthinking, worry and fear. Anything that threatens to consume you is out of balance. This is where boundaries come into play. You may need to say no to what threatens to consume you in order to achieve balance through moderation. Cut back on anything that feels like too much whether it is being initiated by you or by someone else. Some boundaries you will have to set for yourself and be disciplined about keeping them. Some boundaries will need to be set against what is coming at you from the outside and you will also need to be disciplined about keeping them, not in a rejecting or hard edge way, but in a loving, flexible but firm way.

Balance is also needed between work, study, play and rest. To be truly balanced you should have equal amounts of each one in your waking hours. Very few people achieve this but it is a good reminder about what to strive for eventually.

Another area of balance is the relationship you have with trust and intuition vs needing to know. The need to know can cause severe anxiety when the information simply is not available yet. In an emotionally centered year and especially during higher emotional times, the mind needs to take a back seat and allow the heart and emotional intelligence to take over. This is highly uncomfortable for those who are intellectually centered but necessary for achieving a state of balance. So practice trusting your intuition and gut feelings and be less mentally hypervigilant about what you cannot control. You will sleep better.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY

This is a huge month for manifesting new parts of yourself provided you take the time to integrate and assimilate them. It is also a potent month for truth telling. Anything that has been swept under the rug because you did not want to deal with it or you were afraid of how others would react, is likely to surface. Anything you have been in denial about with regards to health, personal addictions and negative behavior patterns, may end up staring you in the face, demanding change, especially around the full moon time mid- month. Don’t be angry. Approach issues that surface with compassion and an intention to support and heal as you would help a wounded child. After all, much of this can be traced back to old childhood wounds.

It is important that you do not allow these issues to derail you or cause a set-back to your manifesting new and wonderful parts of yourself. Remember it is just the back of the closet that still needs a good clean out. Get help if you need it.

In terms of bringing more balance into your life, pay attention to your energy expenditure, listen to your body, get comfortable carving out time just to “be”, get more exercise if you need it, be more social if that is lacking or set some boundaries around alone time if that is what you need. Follow inspirations to bring new expressions into your life and work on your boundaries. It is OK to say “no” and it is OK to say “yes” when your intuition tells you to.

For the physical health aspect, it is a good month to get your diet balanced, your exercise balanced and to take care of any health concerns you may have been in denial about. If there is an imbalance, your will know it.

RELATIONSHIPS

Because balance has a lot to do with relationship, this is a big theme this month. Where do you want to put your energy? With whom do you want to spend your time with? Where are the energy leaks or loose boundaries or habitual behaviors that keep you in relationships that are not healthy?

Finding balance in relationship does not necessarily mean eliminating the relationship although sometimes that is what is needed. It may be simply enough to reset your boundaries in order to bring more balance. For example, if you are in the habit of spending way too much time listening to a friend’s constant complaining about their life, you may need to set a boundary against that behavior and decrease the amount of time you allow that friend to take.

If there is a deep imbalance in a relationship that has not been addressed, it is likely to surface as a truth mid-month. Around the full moon time could be a challenge for relationships or it could be a fabulous reset using the higher centered energy available at that time. However, if new boundaries are not honored, the claws may come out. Be careful not to react in a way you may regret later.

Balance also includes re-evaluating how much time you spend in relationship with yourself as opposed to time spent in relationship with others. For some of you it may mean putting yourself out there to connect more, and for others it may mean limiting the constant social activity in order to give yourself some alone time for much needed time to “be” and to integrate.

ENVIRONMENT

This is a good month to de-clutter. You may be feeling the urge to simplify, downsize, get rid of things you have not used for a while, go through old papers, toss and clean, and generally get yourself to a place where you are managing less in your physical environment. Balance also includes de-cluttering your inner landscape of worry and obsession especially about the things you can do nothing about, like the weather or other people’s actions. As you de-clutter, you may also be very inspired to improve your surroundings in some way and bring more beauty into your environment.

Imbalance in weather patterns globally comes to our attention again and there will be new findings and truth that surface about global warming and other environmental conditions. We may see more events caused by the imbalance of “too much” or “too little” especially around water. The environment in general feels more destabilized in terms of being able to predict anything. The earth is going through her own changes and manifesting new aspects, demanding attention, and making sure we do not get too comfortable in our old habits. Wind is likely to be a strong force this month.

BUSINESS/PARTNERSHIPS/PROJECTS

The biggest issue this month is the uncovering of corruption. If you are involved in a business that is part of a larger corporation, be prepared for fall out if any of the practices are in question or if integrity has been compromised. At the same time, you yourself may question what you have been putting up with and where your personal boundaries need to be adjusted. There are likely to be shake ups on many levels with regards to partnerships and projects. Whenever there is shake up, much creative energy is released and can be used very productively as long as the people involved do not get mired in anger, blame and finger pointing.

It is very important this month to always look forward and to be solution oriented instead of trying to digest past failures and injustices. Let them go and focus on the future. It is a great month to start something new but keep in mind the balance piece and start it right. If you are overextended, simplify something. If you are feeling a lack of activity, take a risk and jump into a new project that inspires you.

DATES AND TIME FRAMES

October 1-7: This is an expansive time launched by the new moon on September 30. You may be inspired to de-clutter, start something new, change your look, and finish taking care of any business that did not get handled in September. The good news is that you should have the energy for it as well as the enthusiasm. Make sure you do not add too much more to your already full plate.

During this time frame be disciplined about letting go of the past especially any experiences of restriction, lack, difficulty and challenge. It is a new time and it is important to embrace the possibilities and to trust that things can be very very different. The exercise in balance this week should include time to take big deep breaths and to enjoy being with what you have, instead of worrying about what you don’t yet have.

October 8-15: This is an active time that can have you running in circles and experiencing chaos if you are out of balance. Time management is a necessary study as well as boundary setting. This could be an extremely productive time when a lot comes together in a really good way as long as you approach your life with presence and balance. If you find yourself losing your train of thought, becoming irritated, fearful or overwhelmed, stop everything and take few breaths to reset through a state of being.

As we approach the full moon on the 15th be aware of crisis points in your life and see them as opportunities for breakthrough rather than breakdown. There may be people out there behaving badly, Don’t be one of them.

October 15: Full Moon is, October 15 at 10:23 PM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT). This is a fiery and potent full moon designed to push through and push forward. It carries a punch that may be a welcome energy for some that perform well under pressure but it may be challenging for those that prefer a softer method. This moon also influences the uncovering of hard to look at truths that may surface during this time. The good news is that the power of this full moon time gives you the tools to embrace truth and allows you to accept, change and move forward.

Watch for explosive reactions and don’t get yourself embroiled in drama that is not yours. Stay away from conflict if you can and focus instead on something that you are wanting to express in a larger way in your life. This Full Moon can feed that expansion in a powerful way.

October 17-22: We are dealing with the aftermath of the full moon and the result of seeing the truth about what is imbalanced in your life. Whether it is relationship, health, attitudes, beliefs, addictions, or behaviors, this is the time to eliminate, change, commit, resolve and bring discipline into what needs to be different. Pay special attention to the balance between doing and being and work with that container as you reinvent some of your daily practices.

There could be radical change that occurs in your life during this time either initiated by you because of new boundaries and resolutions or because of someone else’s new boundaries and resolutions.

There could also be radical change occurring on the planet due to environmental or weather events, social unrest and global incidents. The energy is still that of “crisis” so remember to use it proactively to push through some barrier instead of being trampled by it. Powerful time frames can either be super transformational or very difficult or both.

October 23-31: Activity settles down some and you may finally feel as if you have a better handle on the balance in your life. You should definitely carve out time for integration and assimilation especially if you have experienced a big change or launched some new big project. Your closets should be clean and the de-cluttering well on its way. This is a good week to pamper and nurture yourself. Those around you should have gotten used to your new boundaries and you should feel a certain thread of harmony and ease. Trust it and be grateful.

If this is not your experience perhaps there is more work to do. Perhaps out of fear or resistance you have not set good boundaries and have not embraced change or you are working too hard and not monitoring the excess on your plate. It is never too late to go back, take a deep breath and do what you know needs to be done. You will be happy you did.

October 30: New Moon is Sunday, October 30 at 11:39 AM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT). This is a good moon to get clear on new intentions and to set your priorities so that you can maintain the new found balance in your life. If you have weathered a big change, now would be a good time to anchor whatever new situation the change has brought into your life.

Have a great month!

Lena Stevens – The main theme for August is COLLABORATION ~ August 7, 2016

Lena Stevens | The Power Path

Although the experiences you may have during the month could be as diverse as the population of the planet, the theme of COLLABORATION gets to the foundation of what is needed right now in everyone’s life if we are to set things up in the best way possible for a positive future.

What is COLLABORATION? Collaboration is working in cooperation with others to achieve a common goal.

The time for going about it alone is over. We are fully entering the cycle of relationship orientation, and if we are to survive and accomplish what we are here to do, we need to collaborate not only with others but ourselves as well. How often do we sabotage ourselves when the heart wants to proceed but the mind has other ideas? Or when the mind has an idea but the heart is frozen in fear? Or when the body simply refuses to cooperate?

This is perhaps the place to start, the collaboration between all of your complex personal aspects: personality, body, mind, heart and spirit.

Since the month carries a great deal of fiery masculine energy for accomplishment, action and determination, it is an excellent opportunity to bring all of your personal aspects into collaboration with each other.

The beginning of the month and the new moon supports telling the truth to yourself about where you have resistance and why you sabotage yourself from stepping fully into your power. This may be depressing, sobering and could make you defensive, angry and reactive. Take that energy and turn it around into a proactive determination to move forward no matter what. It is helpful to spend a little time in clearing the decks and releasing where you are still attached or holding on to old wounds, injustices, regrets, disappointments and trauma. (There is help with this on the monthly Mp3)

It really is time to release the past no matter how unfinished you may feel about certain events. You are not eliminating your responsibilities; you are simply changing your relationship to what you are responsible for. What if you could feel totally neutral about everything that causes you to feel angry, resentful, depressed, self- judging, despairing and generally negative? Most negative emotional reactions have their roots in the past. It will be important to watch and observe what triggers you this month and become as neutral as possible as you consciously let go of any attachment you might have to being victimized, right or damaged goods.

How does the theme of COLLABORATION fit into all of this?

You cannot do it alone. You need all of your parts (body, mind, heart, spirit) on board and you need your “team” of support. Remember this is a time of building relationships, not going more deeply into separation. We are still under interesting astrological influences that are forcing us to realign our priorities and to really clear the past so we can step into the future on a different vibrational platform. This takes team work and collaboration. The world wide web of the internet has provided us with the ability to connect virtually on a global level. Now the time has come to work on our own web of support by asking for help, embracing collaboration with others, and bringing all the parts of ourselves online and on the same page.

Most of you are feeling a stressed combination of being highly inspired by all the potential opportunities you have glimpsed one day, and tossed down into despair by some challenge that came out of nowhere the next day. It is easy to lose the inspiration and dive down into the negative. The higher centered influence triggers the extremes and it is important to stay flexible, a bit like doing a dance.

Remember that you are not alone. Acknowledge that you have help and begin to honor the collaboration available to you at this time. Since this is a month that supports action and the masculine qualities of “will” and “determination”, use them wisely and positively to ask for what you need. Use the times of inspiration to dream bigger with the help and collaboration of others.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY

If collaboration is working in cooperation with others to achieve a common goal, then on a personal level this cooperation needs to include all parts and aspects of yourself. Your goal in life is to do and be what you came here to do and be. If you do not have the cooperation of your body, mind, heart and spirit, you cannot achieve that goal. This month provides a great opportunity to observe which parts are not on board and to bring them all on to the same page. How is this done?

First through telling the truth, second through complete acceptance, and third through forgiveness of the past. Work with your body to give it what it needs. Collaborate with those that can help you with physical issues. Tell the truth, be accepting and forgive.

Discipline your mind to release the past and the attachment it has to how it all should be and to being “right”. Open your heart to the possibilities of being fully loved and supported. Forgive and release the fear from past wounds and trauma. Allow your essence and spirit to take the lead, trusting that it will lead you well. Set intentions that all your parts will collaborate with each other to align you into your power and your full potential.

RELATIONSHIPS

This is a big month for relationships. Collaboration is all about building stronger and more trusting relationships with the different parts of yourself as well as with others. There is no room for competition, standing out as the “king of the mountain”, or needing to be singled out as the one at the top. Collaboration is about building a team where everyone does their part. You will be the master of whatever role you play in the collaboration.

If we can get this lesson of learning to work together in harmony and cooperation, the future will unfold for us as a collective in a very beautiful way. However, if we continue to act independently out of the old pattern of separation, competition, comparison and judgment, we will only extend and prolong the period of suffering, loneliness and despair.

We cannot do it alone. And in order for there to be true collaboration, we have to get over ourselves, our self-centered self -doubt, self-deprecation and low self-esteem. It is time to acknowledge and honor the magnificence that we all are as human beings and stop wallowing in our own delicious self-pity. We all have a role to play in the greater collaboration of evolving the planet to the best future possible. We are all powerful individually but in collaborative relationship, we can be super heroes.

Start with the relationships around you. How can you be in better collaboration with your family, your significant other, your children, your closest loved ones? Then move to your current work, staff, coworkers, clients, community members, friends, partners in business or pleasure and improve your collaboration wherever possible. If your efforts are meeting unsurmountable resistance, it may be time to look elsewhere for new opportunities.

HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY

Collaboration can be helpful to health this month. If you need support to bring your health up to the best it can be, focus on building a “health team” that is a collaboration of different parts that will work together to achieve this goal. Good physical health is always a collaboration of exercise, diet, practices, discipline, desire, balance and support. Mental and emotional health is much the same with the addition of inspiration, beauty, stimulation, love and acceptance.

Make sure you spend a little time this month reviewing the different elements of your collaborative team. If you are missing someone or something, this is a good time to call it in. Whatever you are missing or need more of will become very transparent and hard to miss. So instead of being frustrated with the lack, focus on filling the gaps. Ask and you shall receive.

ENVIRONMENT

Everything is connected and we become more aware of this on a global level. Look for the possibility of new ideas and inspiration for global collaboration on environmental issues. There is a new understanding that when you treat one aspect the whole is affected. This is especially true for water. There is a grass roots movement to collaborate on “making things right” so despite the seeming polarization, destruction and lack of cooperation, there is progress that is occurring on a foundational level not yet seen manifest.

On an individual level, it is a good month to make changes in your personal environment with collaboration. Ask for advice and get help. Many hands make fast work. Think also about how you can be part of someone else’s collaborative effort. Make time to help others whether your talent lies in inspiring new ideas or physical labor. It takes a village….

BUSINESS/PARTNERSHIPS/PROJECTS

A great month to start new projects or complete old ones with some new energy. It is a good time to take inventory and revisit old projects that were put on hold to see if they should be revived under a new collaborative effort. New undertakings will be more successful if they are not done alone. Bring in your team and bring in your support. Those who perhaps were not interested in cooperating in the past, may very well be interested in cooperating now.

It is important to keep negative energies out for all business and projects and infuse them instead with a positive higher centered attitude. Since we have this energy available to us, make sure that whatever you begin has its start on this higher centered platform. If you are reviving an old project, consciously restart it on a different vibration as well as with a new collaboration.

There is a lot of movement and action this month that could be very good for all business projects and partnerships. Much of what has been slogging through the logjams of the retrograde energies can break loose and gain some momentum. However, you will need to continue to be vigilant and pay attention to personal triggers, to others being triggered and to irrational negative behavior. Remember not to take things personally and to be responsible for your own behavior and reactions.

DATES AND TIME FRAMES

August 1-7: An energetic time and excellent for resetting priorities, cleaning out closets and recommitting to the important things in your life. Watch for impatience, frustration and flare ups of anger. It is a “hot” energy time that can be channeled into physical activity, hard work and proactively dealing with challenges. If you are hit with unexpected challenges, don’t get “down”, get “busy”.

Those of you who may have been feeling waves of lethargy and low energy last month could now be more energized. Be careful not to overdo it and wear yourself out. Look to delegate and collaborate instead of going at it alone. It’s more fun that way.

The challenge will be not to get overwhelmed with all the possibilities, the inspiration, the call to action, the amount of projects on your plate, the demands of others and the desire you personally have to show up in a bigger way. Use this time frame to set a new container of good boundaries, personal priorities and a reasonable action plan that includes help and support.

August 2: New Moon is Tuesday, August 2 at 2:44 PM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT). Use this moon as a restart. Let go of how you are holding or still processing all the ups and downs of transformative July. Forgive what has not gone so well, acknowledge what has, take a deep breath and regroup so you can step out more fully into your life with courage and a new resolve. This is a time to make some inner commitments to yourself about what you will do from now on and what you will not do anymore from now on.

This new moon brings us all an opportunity for some inner truth telling and gives us the energy and clarity for new resolutions and determination. The energy of the sun empowers the masculine qualities of “will” and “action”. That which has been set in motion during transformative and squirrelly July, can now find a new alignment for moving forward.

You cannot do it alone. So start the cycle of this new moon by gathering your support and asking for help when you need it.

Don’t let this new moon go by without honoring it and yourself in some way.

August 8-15: A good week for reorganizing and realigning. This includes changing your relationship with your past and doing some personal work in self-discovery new ideas, inspiration, creativity and desires that could lead to new intentions. This time frame also supports restructuring the way you do things as you bring in a new structure of collaboration into your goals and intentions. What seemed impossible can now be contemplated as possible. What seemed doomed, can now be resurrected. What seemed at the end of its life, may now be restarted and expanded on. This could either be a really fun time frame, highly creative, social and inspiring, or it can enflame your irritation with everything that is not working optimally in your life. Make it fun. If irritated, find the humor in your situation.

August 16-22: In this time frame look for unexpected opportunities as well as unexpected situations to deal with. Focus on collaboration as your best problem solving tool. You may need lots of help and support in many areas of your life. Instead of seeing this as a failure or a problem, see it as an opportunity to be in community in an inspiring way. So be inspired instead of negatively judgmental. We are approaching a time of intense aggressive energy that will be a final punch through to a new level of understanding and functioning on the positive side, but can leave some destruction in its wake. Watch for accidents as the physical plane struggles to adjust.

August 18: Full Moon is Thursday, August 18 at 3:27 AM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT), This is a good day for spontaneity, flexibility in your schedule, and being social with old friends or new ones. Do something different and say yes to some eccentric opportunity that may show up for you. If you have been working hard, take a break today. If you have been overly serious in your efforts to heal, balance, get your life on track and organize your work and your environment, take a break and focus on play for a change.

A full moon is always good time to honor and celebrate what you have achieved and what you have received and to focus on the fullness of life rather than any lack.

August 23-31: The beginning of this time frame is still in the window of aggression and powerful movement forward with the physical plane adjusting. It is still wise to be very vigilant and present so as to avoid unnecessary accidents. But if you happen to be caught in the crossfire, see it as an assemblage point reset for yourself and a chosen event for some higher purpose.

You may also be dealing with the fallout of some breakage of vehicles, machinery, appliances, electronics, or your body as well as other things in your physical environment. Get help, bring in your team, collaborate with others on reframing this to be an improvement rather than some sort of backslide setting you back. Be in acceptance, forgiveness and neutrality and don’t forget to have some fun and be in humor. It’s a bit of a time of “chop wood, carry water” and taking care of the details of your physical life but it can still be fun!

Have a great month!
