| What could we be concentrating on during this Virgo new Moon? We have three days to decide our intentions and wishes for this month. Health, diet, nutrition, and study are associated with Virgo and her ruler Chiron. Virgo rules secondary, metaphysical, and trade schools and anything associated with "para," meaning to assist, such as paralegal. If anyone wants to go on a weight loss diet, now is the time to eat very healthy until the full Moon in Aries and then, GO DIET! Do not try to lose anything at a new Moon. The Moon is increasing in light so it is time to gain something. When the Moon is decreasing in light (waning) that is when we can decrease the best. So, study, read, meditate, pray, decide, intend, visualize and eat healthy in preparation for the next two weeks. That's what I'm going to do. BIG salads! Tues. Sept. 22, 2009. Crescent Lunar Phase and Autumnal Equinox (Sun enters Libra) So, today we have two big events happening; Sun enters 0º Libra 00' 00" and the crescent phase of the Virgo New Moon. The keywords: Intentions, wishes, and hopes. It is time to make our intentions for the next month. I would like to gain wisdom this month and with the wisdom, peace. Thurs. Sept. 24, 2009. I found out a couple of days ago that I am going to be a great grandmother. My beautiful Melissa is pregnant and in her first year of nursing school. She is due March 25th according to the doctor. The only reason I can write about it is that she put the baby's sonar picture on Facebook. She seems very happy and I am happy for her, if not a bit concerned. Most woman have no idea of what motherhood consists; well, at least I didn't. Sat. Sept. 26, 2009. First Quarter Moon. Keywords: Challenges, decisions, action. Mon. Sept. 28, 2009. I've sure had some challenges this weekend and my action was to write e-mails, make strawberry jam and hot pepper jelly this weekend. Today is my bridge day and I'm looking forward to getting out of the kitchen today after already frying fish and feeding the animals. Today is the first day of my Ram Das course on SPIRITUALITY AND PRACTICE. I'm going to love it. Wed. Sept. 30, 2009. Gibbous Moon. Keywords: adjust, refine, edit. I am enjoying the Ram Das course. Since his book, Be Here Now, was one of my reintroductions to Spirituality, I resonate with what he says. My original intentions for this Lunar period was wisdom leading to peace. That is rather generic; my prayer is usually, "Help me to know what is and what is not." I guess that's a plea for knowing 'reality'. But, what in the world is really real? I will adjust my intention to a more simple statement; may I love beyond judgment until I feel no judgment. Fri. Oct. 02, 2009. Goodness, October is liable to get away from me before I know it. I received my 2nd and 3rd courses towards my doctorate. After this, only four more and I'm ready for my dissertation. Better not count my chickens; I'm just arranging them, ok? Capricorn rising finds success in making lists. Almost every time something on my list is not done, but that's not the point; arranging is. I know that God laughs at my plans sometime, but I don't mind. I think I'm funny, too! Sun. Oct. 04, 2009. Aries Full Moon. Keywords: signed, sealed, and stamped. I missed looking at the Aries Full Moon last night. I got involved in McLeod's Daughters on Netflix DVD until I was so sleepy that I fell into bed. Tsk, tsk. No dinner with kids today; everyone has other plans except Dad and me. Mon. Oct. 05, 2009. This morning our cat, Blackie, was acting strange and I felt that he had another lump on his spine. He was operated on August 14th for cancer of the spine. We are taking him back to the vets tomorrow and if the Doctor feels like it is the cancer returning, we will have Blackie put to sleep. It is a very sad time for Len and me. We've had that cat since we moved here and he is such a good cat; 15 years with us. First we lost Hobbes, then Carol lost Boy a week ago; now Blackie. Tues. Oct. 06, 2009. This morning I took Blackie to the vets and with tears I watched the Doctor put him to sleep. As I watched the light go out of his eyes, I couldn't help but feel the soul of that beautiful cat. Carol's cat, Boy, was put to sleep last week. For a few years, Boy and Blackie were raised together. I can't help but picture them together with "Sissie" who died a few years ago. God's love Blackie; I hope you're home with them. Wed. Oct. 07, 2009. Disseminating Moon. Keywords: teaching, sharing, enthusiasm. This morning we buried Blackie next to Hobbes in the back yard. It's been a rather sad and slow day, but much harder on Len; he was so attached to that cat. I wish I could help him get over this, but it takes time. Sun. Oct. 11, 2009. Last Quarter Moon. Keywords: Accept, forgive, and let go. Mon. Oct. 12, 2009. "Monday, Monday, can't trust that day..." Today is my day to have bridge club this month. One of my ladies fell and maybe broke her foot. I got the call at 7:45 this Monday morning. I tell y'a, when you get in the 70's you have to watch every step you take. This whole weekend I played bridge at the sectional downtown. Didn't do a thing right. I'm going to have to take lessons again. I've played that dang game for 54 years; every system going from Auction, Goren, Party, Chicago Duplicate, Standard American, 2 over 1, SAYC yellow card to DKDT (don't know a darn thing). I've lost confidence and that's not good. Anyway, I had fun; people there are easy; not so up tight as some places. So, I do accept that I'm not so good, forgive myself, and let it go! Wed. Oct. 14, 2009. Balsamic Moon. Keywords: surrender, rest, recuperate. Fri. Oct. 17, 2009. Here we are at the end of another Lunar cycle and I'm ready for the new Moon in Libra to occur tonight just after midnight. I don't know if I can stay awake for it, but I'll try; the Pleiades will be out even if the Moon won't I've sent in my second and third course examinations for my doctorate. This is such a fascinating curriculum; I'm really enjoying myself. Ever onward and outward. |
