In a time where you are bombarded with bad news of a potential government shutdown, furlongs, thrifty and political crisis every day straight through the media it is principal to find a way to balance your inner emotions in order to not slide down into depression and anxiety.
I personally feel the need to empower myself with a view and attitude which is empowering without ignoring what is. We are living in a time of major crisis in our political landscape all over the world, the poor are getting even poorer and the rich are getting richer. The dollar slides down the drain and more money is printed to stuff the holes. We are sitting on a volcano.
I have commented about the bigger astrological photo accompanying the current and arrival state of affairs. Two outer planets have been lively into a new sign signaling principal transformation in the communal consciousness: Uranus into Aries and Neptune into his own sign Pisces. Also we are having 7 exact squares between Uranus and Pluto till 2015 with a rather explosive potential.
No doubt about it, the Aquarian age with its revolutions is here. We have not had many quiet revolutions happening on this planet. Most of the time revolution means bloodshed and tears for many. But there are exceptions! The Berlin Wall in Germany came down peacefully in November 1989. After 28 years of oppression that was a miracle. The time was just ripe and too many people were not willing to put up with the communist regiment in Eastern Germany any more. This is the power of the people!
Achieving an Ecological Consciousness
Raising your awareness for a responsible interaction with the environment and for the ecology is the field of the month with the New Moon in Taurus and Full Moon in Scorpio.
When I talk about the power of us, the people, I mean the free time to educate ourselves and to be willing to take serious steps to implement new ways of behavior. There are many things you can do. Your buying power is speaking the most direct language. Think to put solar cells on your roof and conduce energy instead of just using it. There are many things you could do to make your point like buying organic produce, manufacture your home green with energy saving measures, supporting Fair Trade, lowering your gas mileage with a car which is based in renewable Green technology and you will have a big impact.
Make the effort and recycle that is truly something you can do easily. Take a shopping bag with you into the store instead of using more plastic or paper bags. By throwing out less of the stuff you don't need anymore but passing it on to somebody in need or just the next thrift store, power is in your hands.
After the nuclear catastrophe in Japan the German government was under so much communal pressure they decided to get out of nuclear energy by 2020. The new technologies of earth, solar and wind energy will be industrialized sufficient to take over the needs of a highly industrialized country like Germany by 2020. A useful side consequent is the boost the German cheaper will receive by exporting these techniques into other countries with German proficiency and know how.
New Moon in Taurus Ripens into the Full Moon in Scorpio
One of the universal laws is that you always reap what you have sown. If you put a sunflower seed into the ground you will get a sunflower and not a cucumber. It sounds straightforward and logical don't you think?
Following the Lunar cycle will give you insight into what you have the chance to seed successfully with the New Moon and the awareness of how it turned out for you with the Full Moon. This month the New Moon brings your individual resources and financial situation into focus. Taurus is down to earth; practical minded and deeply related with mom Nature. Taurus loves gorgeous things and experiences the world straight through his senses. He likes his comforts and needs to feel secure and safe.
The Full Moon in Scorpio wants the truth and is willing to prune and weed out accordingly. The Full Moon sheds light into what we started at the New Moon in Taurus. Both Taurus and Scorpio deal with money. Taurus is very personally motivated nearby that subject; Scorpio might deal more with other people's money and earth resources.
You might want to Think investing in gold, a true financial safe haven as a way to combat inflation and make some money with your investment. We have been following the gold scholar Sinclair for many years now and he has been right on with his gold predictions and info about the bigger thrifty picture.
Around the field of money there is a high sensitivity because it is so tightly related with our survival. Sometimes we forget that if we do what we truly love the money will follow. The seeds you put into the ground are your unique talents and gifts you can barter with. The big success stories of the world of people like Bill Gates, Tony Robbins or Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook) have been people who have been doing just that; they have been following their passion.
You want to get clear about your talents and passions and the universe will present coincidences to you to help you along your way.

Planets in Taurus
The Taurus energy is strong this month with the New Moon, Mars, Mercury and Venus stepping into this earthly sign. It is an invitation to reconnect with planet earth, to be grateful for the bounty we receive and celebrate the joys of having a body. Taurus, the settler evolves out of the sign of Aries, the pioneer. Taurus has the ability to substantiate with an eye to the practical application of ideas.
The lovers Mars and Venus are highly sensual and sexual beings in Taurus. The aged ritual of Maypole dancing falls into the mean between spring and summer and signifies reparation and fertility, the union between the feminine and the masculine principles.
Sun Moves into Gemini
Towards the end of the month the Sun steps into the light hearted more mentally oriented energy of Gemini. Geminis are the butterflies in the zodiac, always lively on from one concept or idea to the next, always curious and eternally young in their mind. Because of that there is a juvenile openness and interest in life ready to you.
When the Sun squares Neptune you can be sidetracked by confusion or thinking fog. Or you can take time allowing yourself to dream and just be. Smelling the roses, meditating under the stars, walking along the ocean or in the forest are all ways to slow down that monkey mind and relax into a higher state of consciousness.
Sun squaring Chiron sensitizes you to wounds and hurts in connection with your self-esteem and how you think others perceive you. Remember that only if you speak your inner truth and show up as an authentic man others can truly report to you.
I hope you will have a astounding month, aloha and many blessings, Shakti.
