Disseminating Moon Overview
Energy may be low, so don’t push the river… give yourself some space to sift through your Full Moon insights. Emotional
breakthroughs are possible as you focus on what to keep and what’s got to go. This is the time to weed things out and you can
ease into those breakthroughs by strengthening your spiritual habits. After all… this cycle has been a lot about security, and
remembering that spirit is who you really are is at the core of safety and emotional security.

Shared Insights: What do I need to weed out and release?   
I need to weed out and release any feelings of irritation, bitterness, or anger with any member of my family, but especially my
husband.  It is very easy to get irritated with him because we're together 24/7 and have been for 23 years since he retired. As the
overview says above, "Energy may be low, so...give yourself some space to sift through your...insights."  I have three days on this,
so no need to hurry.

Understanding Gained: What breakthroughs am I experiencing?
Nothing yet.
july 23, 2008 I have until Friday for the next Lunar phase before I have to come up with a breakthrough. I don't feel like I broke
through anything yet.  One little breakthrough; I will write my own journal next time. These questions don't seem pertinent to me. I just
go through the same old, same old.  Perhaps that's mainly because of my Taurus mind that can't seem to get out of its ruts, but I
feel if the right questions were asked, I might make a breakthrough. What would be a good question? One might be:
What material are you reading at present that help support your intentions?
I'm rereading Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth for the second time.  I had forgotten that i read it before and the only reason i know that i
did is because i underline a lot.  I must have been totally unconscious at the time.  So, i think, perhaps, that i am becoming more
conscious and that could be a breakthrough. As soon as i finish the book, i am going to read it again.

Gratitude:
I am always grateful for my family even as i find fault at times. The fault is mostly mine.
July 23, 2008 I'm grateful that i did find one or two little breakthroughs.  My daily reading does help to support my intentions.
July 24, 2008 I'm very grateful for other astrologers that I learn so much from; who write so well; who are so creative. I'm grateful
that so many of them have websites and weekly or monthly newsletters. Robert Wilkinson, Kim Marie, Philip Sedgwick, and
Michael Meyer come to mind. I e-mailed Robert Wilkinson this morning asking permission to quote one of his articles; he
graciously gave his permission. It was a good day.  I'm grateful for the Nazerenes website, too.

                                                                                                                                                                        revise
Attitude Shift: What thoughts and feelings support me? When I find a piece of reading material that supports
what i feel is true, i feel happy and grateful.  I do not believe, religiously, as other members of my family believe or, as a matter of
fact, the way most Americans believe. The study of the Bible and the doctrine that it is ALL God's Word turned me away from
Protestantism as a child.  The dogmas of the Catholic Church and the idea of a mediator/priest between me and God turned
me away from Catholicism in my early 30's. For a while i was a member of a New Thought church, but politics and some
member's jealousy and meanness turned me away. Maybe i was looking for an excuse; maybe it was my own fault; I AM never
sure. I just know that I AM not a Christian as some other Christians. I AM, truly, like a "stranger in a strange land" and with the
planet, Uranus, in my 4th House of home, i think it is true. So, i go along in my old age without a religious identity. I know who I
AM within myself and I AM God's Child; always was; always will be. All that i read now supports that.  I won't read anything
anymore that doesn't support that.  

What adjustments am I making?  I don't need to make any more adjustments for the time being. Writing a small i and a            
capital "We" is enough for now.

New Consciousness:  I am, rather, I AM.

Gratitude: I AM grateful. It is such a synchronicity that the New Consciousness in this Journal states I am. I been
studying the I AM statements of Jesus for the past two weeks and also trying to find the article or book of New Thought
concerning the I AM statements. I be pushed within to write my article about
We IS and i be...and i hope to write it Sunday. I be
still using i in lower case when it doesn't begin a sentence or state I AM.  It is reminding me of who I and WE BE.

Wisdom Gained: What habits, feelings, and memories do I want to take into the next cycle and what
do I need to leave behind?
I need to think about this for awhile.

Wednesday, July 30, 2008 I have been thinking about Wisdom Gained and although I would like to change the conjugation of
"to be" when I write, I probably won't.  I'm enough of a stranger in a strange land to be regarded as odd anyway; I don't want
Mothers on this street to teach their children to cross themselves when they go past my house. I'm trying to be funny, but there's
a seed of truth in it or I probably wouldn't mention it. I'm still writing my article and should have it done soon.

Acknowledgments: How do I feel now?  Ditto
Wednesday, July 30, 2008 I feel revised...a bit sad because there is such a rebel inside who wants to scream and shout at
some people in the world; but that is 'a no my job. My job is to change myself; begin with me; clear the beam from my eye, and
not note all the little specks in others. This is probably my
"crisis in consciousness!"

How does this compare to my New Moon feelization?
 I wrote that I felt like I was on the salvation road before.  Now I feel
like I have already been saved and am entering the next step or path which is expanding consciousness.  I'm being guided to
work with the I AM statements; to understand more clearly who I and WE BE.  I AM seems to be connected to the ego of the
past 2000 years; I BE is much more apropos to how I really feel and connected to the Universal Consciousness coming to
multitudes on the globe. I BE, you BE, he and she BE, WE BE, WE ALL BE ONE. They BE, too, even if they don't act like it
sometimes.

Wednesday, July 30, 2008 I still believe that the Greek I AM is connected to the ego consciousness of the past thousands of
years.  However, how much good that knowledge contains is debatable. The idea in all the groups with whom I'm connected is
"kill the ego;" have a shift in consciousness; all is ONE, and God is the core of us all.  The new Moon Friday occurs in my 8th
house of transformation...that's the road I hope to be on.  Not much different than the road to salvation.

What changes have I made? Since this Moon Phase began in Cancer (which is my 7th house of marriage and partnership)
I have changed my more negative attitudes towards my husband through transsociation, prayer, catching myself, reading
material, WEB sources, and family support.

Wednesday, July 30, 2008  I have started going back to Curves. Along with walking my dog each day, that gives me four
hours a week of exercise.  It's a beginning for healthier body, mind, and soul.
Gratitude: I have learned a lot about myself through this process and I still have a long way to go.  I be very grateful
for what I've learned and will continue to learn.

Wednesday, July 30, 2008 For this day I have learned that I may have to temper my Uranian mind.  I don't know why; it's just a
thought for this day.

Thursday, July 31, 2008  I note that yesterday I had already started talking about Curves, exercise, walking the dog, and a
beginning for body, mind, and soul.  Yes, the inklings are already forming in my consciousness about the Leo new Moon. Today
is the last day of this Cancer new Moon cycle. It's been fulfilling and helpful to my life. It's interesting that one of the key phrases
of this phase is, "envision the future!" I am grateful.
