Swami Beyondananda’s State of the Universe Address 2010
Wake Up Laughing, And Wise Up Loving:
The Upwising Has Begun!
Well, another 12-month episode of that long-running comedy of situations, Universe Knows Best, is in the can, and you’ll be happy to know the show has been renewed for another season. The Producer thinks it’s hilarious.
However, if you’re like most of us, you really had to strain to hear the laugh track in 2009. Certainly, there was plenty to not laugh about. Take our political system -- please!
A year ago, Americans believed they had chosen not just a new President, but a new precedent. Well, now that the hopium fix is wearing off, we must face the inconvenient truth that if we want a truly new deal, we the people must become the new dealer. Unfortunately, the old dealer seems to have dealt a great hand to the uncommonly wealthy at the expense of the commonwealth.
The Swami is at it again. Looking for a few good chuckles? You'll find these pearls to be absolutely priceless.

Astrology:
Carin Martin, Astrologer.....................
Divine Lens
By Carin Martin, professional Astrologer, teacher, & lecturer. I can still recall my reactions when as a child I first saw that mystical circle that is the astrological chart. To me, it was a flat, one dimensional circle on a piece of paper. Inside of the circle were obscure, mysterious glyphs sitting motionless in the twelve little wedges of pie that make up the twelve houses of the zodiac. As I struggled to learn the meaning of the glyphs, the houses, the signs, the planets, the aspects, it was akin to a long, strenuous but exciting initiation into a secret society. No initiate to Skull and Bones or the Knights Templar could have been more excited than I was to learn all these ancient "secret codes". But as I've often told my students, it was not until the flat image of the chart became three dimensional for me that I knew I was finally "getting it." Come read, and learn from this brilliant Astrologer!

Donna Cunningham, Astrologer.........
Why Saturn has as much to do with Luck as Jupiter
Legendary Astrologer, and author, Donna Cunningham, MSW, presents a new column series addressing a variety of topics from her latest e-books. I've been a fairly lucky person all my life, and once, after a run of especially good luck, I set about analyzing it. I felt that perhaps by understanding my luck, I could not only increase it for myself, but perhaps also teach my heretofore un°©conscious "methods" to others who haven't been so for°©tunate. Naturally, I thought a great deal about Jupiter, the planet traditionally associated with good luck, but I was quite surprised to discover Saturn has as much or more to do with luck as Jupiter.

Basil Fearrington..............................
Excessive Sexuality
By Basil Fearrington, professional astrologer /musician/ teacher, and author of "The New Way To Learn Astrology.
Everyone needs love. It is the most essential requirement that humans have. In fact, in spiritual circles, the belief is that the soul only remembers the events that have made an emotional impact on the life. Most of these are the result of feelings of having felt loved or a lack of it and, when confused or not, sexuality is often linked with or is the result of feelings of love. When our needs to give and love are unfulfilled, all kinds of over-compensatory behaviors can and usually do take place in life and one common way it manifests is in the use of sex excessively.

Jeff Jawer and Star IQ Presents:.......
Using Astrology to Determine Dietary Needs, Part 2
by Gretchen Lawlor
Just as the elements of fire, earth, air and water are the building blocks of life, in an astrological chart they are the essential indicators of an individual’s health and well-being.
Even the rudimentary knowledge of which element the Sun occupies, whether it is in fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) or water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), can provide significant information about your body’s constitutional makeup, what it needs to thrive and how imbalance will manifest. The element of your Sun sign indicates how your body responds to stress. Stress causes imbalance, with subsequent excess or deficiency of that element.

Starlight Musings
by Nancy Sommers..........................
Economic Downturn
There is a dark mood in the nation. Not only has King George the Imbecile pushed us over a cliff and into the sea, but he has weighted us down with rocks. Gas prices climb ever higher, dragging up the cost of everything but the equity in our homes and the value of our stock portfolios, which are plummeting. The war in Iraq is a messy quagmire, with any move to extricate ourselves requiring the courage needed to rip open an ill-healing wound. Afghanistan, meanwhile, looms as another potential sinkhole, not mended when the time was ripe, and now demanding a heavy penance in blood and treasure. And, over everything, hangs our massive and ever-expanding debt to China and our debilitating dependence on foreign oil, reminders of our growing inability to manifest the basic material requirements of the independence and freedom about which we like to brag.

Swami Beyondananda’s State of the Universe Address 2010
by Swami Beyondananda (Steve Bhaerman)
Obama Bails Out Wall Street, and Bails Out On Main Street
Riding high on the shoulders of public opinion, President Barack Obama came down to earth, showing he -- like anyone else in the employ of the American Empire -- must answer to the Board of Directors, and not the shareholders. To give credit where credit is not due, the Administration bailed out the big banks, which immediately reinvested the money in three big houses: The White House and the two houses of Congress. Yes, it’s a buy-ological fact. When the banks are picking up the tab, the government becomes more usurer-friendly.
The Swami is at it again. Looking for a few good chuckles? You'll find these pearls to be absolutely priceless.

Publisher's Corner...........................
The End of Days: The War Of GogUMagog
by Robbie G.
Both politically and geophysically, world wide, we have been experiencing a series of extreme events that are just too dramatic to ignore. You've heard people refer to them as being "of Biblical proportions." Indeed, they are.
Connect the dots and you'll see the pattern of what is happening. Some, think it is "coincidence". Others, think it nonsense. All of the political events, and the geophysical events listed in this article are factual, and well documented. They can be Googled. The connection is too obvious to ignore, and there are far too many of them to deny. And further, you'll see how they substantiate prophecies written by the ancient Hebrew Prophets, the Holy Niviim, many thousands of years ago. The events are occurring as written, and like clockwork. It is time to open our eyes to see what G-D is telling us.

Angel Blessings with Doreen Virtue, Ph.D.
You Are a Spiritual Healer
by Dr. Doreen Virtue, Ph.D
Your dream of developing a spiritually based career is much more than a mere dream or idle wishing. It’s a clear sign of your destiny and your soul’s leanings.
Everyone is a healer in truth, because we’re made in the image and likeness of God, who is THE healer. And yet those who are called to do healing work full-time are those who are healers as a Divine life purpose. Take a moment to recall your healing experiences. In what ways have you healed yourself and others (including pets)? As you remember these experiences, give yourself credit for stepping up and being the conduit of divine healing energy. This isn’t ego-accolades, it’s accepting positive responsibility for taking divinely guided actions. This is healthy!

Love Letters...............................
You’ll Fly
by Erika Morrell, Soul Mate Medium™
There are some schools and traditions of thought such as Buddhism and the School of Metaphysics that state that if you need or want to change someone, you are not Loving them. It is not true Love. I agree with this. I know, I can hear all kinds of arguments, and that is okay. One of the keys to a successful relationship is accepting your partner or potential partner for who he or she is, for the good and the bad, the gifts and the challenges. If you cannot accept everything about who they are, you are not truly Loving them for who they are in their truth. You are Loving the potential you see in them, or your fantasy of who you wish they were, or who you feel they could become—and that is about who you are.

Dancing and Designing Your Destiny
by Eddie Conner, Soul Intuitive
BWe’re well into the New Year and before we know it we’ll be celebrating Valentine’s Day while seeing how many pieces of chocolate candy we can eat before our stomach bulges. While reviewing 2009 and establishing desires for 2010 I had a realization based on my life before becoming a psychic, author and radio host.
Before my life became a full time career in metaphysics and spiritually I taught dance at Carolina Dance Academy in Durham, North Carolina while working as a full time visual marketing designer for department stores. I lived, breathed and dreamed dance, music and design. It was my life and it was also how I was identified for fifteen years before I moved to Los Angeles to help others design the future they desired.

Dr. Carson's Holistic Animal Care..............
The Gift We Have in Our Animals
by Dr. Kathleen Carson, D.V.M.
I believe that animals are our fellow beings, traveling with us on our sojourn on this living planet, Earth. Some of these animals become members of our human families. They live with us, sharing our lives, with us both in times of triumph and joy as well as defeat and pain. In fact, in this time when families are split apart, and we often live hundreds or thousands of miles away from human family members, our companion animals are often the only close family members we have. “natural” equates with “harmless”. This is not always the case.

Your Symptoms Are Your Friends
by Lonny J. Brown, HHC
When it comes to promoting healing, contemporary Western allopathic medicine has it all wrong, and so do most health care "consumers." Over the last half-century, we have thoroughly misapplied too many remarkable scientific advances in bio-chemistry to suppress the symptoms of disease, while ignoring the causes. The vast majority of those causes of disease are life-style related, preventable, and treatable with natural therapies.

Now Remember Rosemary
by Susun Weed
Mad Ophelia tells us: "There's Rosemary, that's for remembrance". In Shakespeare's day it was common knowledge that rosemary helped one remember. Today, as then, herbalists agree: "For weyknesse of ye brayne, sethe rosemaria in wyne and keep ye heed warme". The leaves of this tough, evergreen shrub, are valued for both medicinal and culinary uses. And, the powerful antioxidant vitamins found therein do help the brain work better.

Hormone Balancing
by Caroline Sutherland,
TOne of the most important components of any successful weight loss program is the delicate issue of hormone balancing – usually missing or rarely discussed in any popular diet book. If those hormones are not balanced, then you will not lose weight or you might lose weight initially and then weight loss will stop – you’ll plateau. Because of working in allergy clinics with thousands of patients over the years, I have developed an intuitive sense about people and their weight issues or health problems. When I look into a physical body, I see the body in terms of the systems that are out of balance. One of the most common imbalanced systems is the endocrine system. Overweight people almost always have hormone imbalances.

Subject: Loving everything about you! Relationships under test!
by Eva Kettles,
At first it seems so easy to love all that we find in our new love. We are falling in love with the charms and the talents and the beauty of each other. We are focused on that which seems to be the “good” sides in each other and we fail to notice anything “wrong” in our partner. In these times we might look through the rose colored glasses of a new born love that just carries us away into being blinded of anything else but what we want to see.

Herbs for Health with Kami McBride......
Smoking with the Gods
All over the world people burn herbs to open and enhance their communication with the spirit world. Smoke is a combination of fire and air; therefore it contains the nature of both of these elements. Fire can clear a space of what is no longer useful and air carries the transformative nature of fire. Air carries the thought or intention to other dimensions. Using these two elements in combination with various plant medicines provides a potent synthesis for prayer and healing.

Cure Your Cravings... For Life...............
A New Beginning
by Rena Greenberg
How long would you give a child to learn to walk? As long as it takes would be the obvious response. You would not berate the child for failures, bumps or bruises along the way. What would happen if you gave yourself that same luxury when in comes to achieving a body weight that you are comfortable with?
You may assume that by being hard on yourself, beating yourself up, and giving yourself a strong scolding when you “mess up,” you are giving yourself the kick in the behind that will magically get you to stop your self-sabotaging behaviors. However, the opposite is more likely to be true. When you can open your heart to yourself and give yourself love and compassion for your struggle with food instead, you can begin to relax and take an honest assessment of your situation. As long as you take a hard stance against yourself, you will find yourself bracing against the inner onslaught, and even rebelling against your inner critic.

The Gatekeeper
by Kabbalist Chaim Ratz,
Chaim Ratz is editor in chief of Laitman Kabbalah Publishers, associate editor of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Kabbalah (2007, Penguin Group), translator of Awakening to Kabbalah (2006, Jewish Lights Publishing), and associate editor of World Futures: The Journal of General Evolution, special issue: Disclosing the Science of Kabbalah (2006, Taylor & Francis Group). The author is also a content editor for the Internet site www.kab.info, and a member of Bnei Baruch—Kabbalah, Education, and Research Institute.
Who is the guard standing at the entrance to the spiritual world who decides who shall enter and who shall not? A journey following Kafka, Baal Hasulam, two parables, and one gate
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) may well be the author who best expresses the rising impotence we feel in our present existence. The “Kafkaic world” is dark, sullen and menacing. Its heroes are helpless and incapable, wandering about as they attempt (and fail) to overcome their misfortunes.
One of Kafka’s most famous stories, “Before the Law,” is about a villager who sits in front of “the gate of the law,” asking for permission to enter. Ironically, the gate is wide open, but the villager is afraid to go through it without the gatekeeper’s permission. The gatekeeper has warned him that there are more guards further ahead, each one stronger than the previous one.

Creating Bridges: The Spiritual
& The Philosophical:
From The Heart..................................
Love Will Have Its Way
by Alan Cohen
At a seminar, a young Jewish woman named Miriam tearfully reported that she was in love with a Muslim man, but her father forbade her to see him. This created a terrible quandary for her, since she could not reconcile her love for this man with her desire to honor her father’s wishes. Miriam wrestled with this issue for a long time and a year later returned to another seminar, still distraught.
A few months afterward, Miriam mailed me a copy of a letter she had written to her father. The letter was a masterful communication of honesty, clarity, compassion, and purpose. She told her father that she loved him very much and appreciated all that he was to her, but she had to follow her heart and be with the man she loved. As I read Miriam’s letter, I realized that she had finally claimed her power and stood up for her truth.

Power Deck Card of the Month:"Quickening”
by Lynn Andrews
Internationally Acclaimed Shaman, Spiritual Teacher, and Founder of Joshua Tree, Lynn Andrews, continues in teaching her Power Deck with this month's card: “Quickening”. You can never really teach a warrior with words about the unknown; you must use experience. But if you look into the eyes of a woman of power, you may catch up with her a little. She has years of truth ahead of you. Her eyes can quicken you like a river heading towards the rapids. Open yourself with love, not with understanding. You cannot love with your mind. Listen from your heart. If a camel is walking down a path and another camel passes him, the first camel will go faster to keep up. This is how power works. Don’t learn everything with your mind. Quicken your spirit by letting go of attachments and move to a stronger vibration of power.

Karma: The Functioning of Cause and Effect, Part 4
by Bhikshuni Thubten Chodron
By Buddhist Nun, Teacher, Author, and co-founder of the Sravasti Abbey. Does karma influence whom we will meet and the relationships we'll have with them? Yes, but this doesn't mean those relationships are predetermined. We may have certain karmic predispositions to feel close to or to have friction with certain people. Nevertheless, these relationships may not continue along those same lines. If we are kind to those who speak ill of us and try to communicate effectively with them, the re-lationships will change. We'll also create positive karma, which will bring happiness in the future.
We are not karmically bound to others. Nor are there "soul mates," special people who are the one and only one for us. Since we've had infinite past lives, we've had contact with every being sometime before. Also, our relationship with any particular person constantly changes.

Jacquelyn Small, Eupsychia ....................
Sacrifice:
The True Meaning of the Word
The word 'sacrifice' comes from the root word 'sacer,' which means "to make holy." Making something we've experienced holy, then, can be known as a sacrifice. But how do we experience making something sacred or holy?
When we first commit to the spiritual path, we have no idea what's in store for us. We expect that our lives will get better because we've decided to be spiritual, to give ourselves to the God of our understanding in service to the world. However, it doesn't turn out to be that way. And our innocence is quickly shattered as we begin to see that anything in our way of being that is "shadowy" or negative or just plain over, rises right up in our face to be recognized and dealt with. Dr. Carl Jung said it plainly: When you enter a spiritual path, the first thing that comes up is your shadow. You shadow is all those unconscious parts acting out through you that you've never faced or integrated.

I Have A Job

I have a job.
Some days it is to lie on the ground underneath a Japanese Maple tree in autumn and stare up at the indescribable red that has invaded each and every leaf.
I have a job.
Some days it is to stop and watch a street performer or musician’s act in its entirety, shake their hand then thank them with what was to be my lunch money.

Spiritual Mastery for the 21st Century.....
Master's Lesson - Intuitive Exercises to Awaken The Divine Self
by Dr. Gwen MacGregor
TToday we open our minds and hearts to our burgeoning psychic abilities as we struggle to stretch and believe that there is so much more for us to learn in the Universe. That uplifted "spiritual" ability we seek is conditional upon being united in soul and body. The sacred voice within never lies nor does it run away from our human fears and doubts. Our unique spirit has often been called "The Watcher," because it stands by us, even through times of human folly to arise within when the time is opportune for wisdom. Whether you see your psychic ability as "a gift" or a privilege, it is time for many people on Earth to now reclaim their destiny as Light-Bearers and Seekers.

Intuitive Thinking: Patterns Within
by Karen Johnson

Inside us there is a deep fear that may have us grasping with an imaginary or illusionary opponent that doesn’t exist except within the battlefields of our own mind. We begin by taking small, sure steps moving us forward beyond the barriers of our own self-imposed fear. This can short circuit our ability to manifest the kind of present and future that we want to exist in. Instead, we end up clawing our way around this non-existent drama that we continually, inadvertently perhaps, breathe life into. Read and learn more!

Longing
by Margaret H. Lewis
Margaret H. Lewis is a highly regarded professional speaker, workshop facilitator, business and personal development consultant, gifted spiritual practitioner and author. For over 20 years she has provided countless training seminars and workshops on a wide range of life management and personal development skills.
Why do we long to be near what is far?
We yearn to travel great distances while disparaging what is near. Yet, we all know there is no place like home. From moment to moment, we are living the meticulous life we’ve created. Life didn’t happen to us; we made it happen in every glorious and exacting detail. We’d prefer to ignore that fact, while we engage in our dream of the far where grand adventures await our arrival.
Longing persists. A faraway place with inhabitants unknown entices our daydreams. The enchantment glitters in the distance, yet is as nearby as our imagination. For what is near and what is far inhabits our minds, inspires our souls, and warms our hearts. We long to be near what is far because it is our nature to desire access to the uncharted territory.

I, of my own knowledge….................
On behalf of the intuitive Indian way
by Frank Demarco,
Author of Muddy Tracks: Exploring an Unexpected Reality,
Editor, Publisher & Psychic Explorer
The warm family life I experienced growing up was very Indian, very tribal. There were six of us kids, not a chilly few. I was one of 15 cousins from several brothers and sisters who themselves had remained close. Family feasts were family time, and whenever in later years we brought home friends as guests, they were accepted into the warmth and closeness, and for some it was a revelation, though we didn’t realize it at the time. All this is very Indian, and one thread of my life is a seeking to bring to a chilly industrial secular life the casually sacred tribal life that I had lived.
