Quote of the Month

Quote of the MonthI have offered this quote before but I feel that since we are entering into a brand new year and we (most of us) could use a little change, I thought it might be appropriate to put it out again: IF YOU ALWAYS DO WHAT YOUVE ALWAYS DONE,YOULL ALWAYS GET WHAT YOUVE ALWAYS GOT. The English is deplorable but the sentiment is there! If you want things to be different in your life you must change the way you do things. Do something different, and watch for the changes!

CLASSES/EVENTS(This section includes details of on-going events and classes that do not necessarily have changes to report.)Pagan Discussion Group Saturday, Jan 7th at 3PM Julia and Cherie will bring you a special mini class on Pendulums and their Usage. This is a must, as far as I am concerned. I use mine constantly for EVERYTHING! Come and bring your pendulum (or you can purchase one here, of course, lol) Last month Alexandra Chauran, author of Llewellyns Crystal Ball Reading for Beginners, a member of our own community, and a full time reader who reads out of TVM on occasion, us some of the highlights of her book including some tips on how to read a crystal ball. Then a couple of us tried it with huge success, I might add! ********************************************************************************************************8 On February 4th, AFTER the discussion group and the drum circle, we will entertain Jeffrey Marks, yet again, but this time in an audience forum. Check the event below for details. (Watch for special notices of special speakers who will be coming to join us!) Psychic Fair January 14th Psychic Fair will be fabulous, as usual! There are even a couple of new readers that said they would be coming in. This is your time to find out what is going on in your life when you cannot figure it out for yourself! Full Moon Drum Circle Mink will be leading us, Saturday Jan 7th at 5:30PM at the end of Pagan Discussion Group. A little birdie told me that Robert and Larry (former leaders of The Venus Moon Drum Circle) may join our group again! If you have percussion instruments, please bring them we do have a number of extras but it is better to have too many than too few! Meditation Group Meditation Group third Saturday of the month (Jan 21st) at 1PM. Lisa will be leading this month. Lisas focus for this session will be A Meditation for the New Year: she says, The turning of a new year, however we calculate it, is a time for reflection on the year just passed and possible planning for the year ahead. Join us for Januarys meditation and open yourself to the exciting possibilities of a bright new year. Yule Ritual last month Dame Merrie led us thru the Yule Ritual this year with Zacs assistance. She always brings beauty to a ritual with her words and respect for the solemnity of the occasion. It was truly a lovely occasion including all the good things to eat and drink. Thanks Merrie and Zac! Healing Fair We have a special guest, Jaime Dawson, coming in to do a workshop on SoulCollage for us this month. Saturday Jan 28th from 2 to 4PM. Here is a little message from Jaime about what you can expect: What is SoulCollage you ask? It is an intuitive collage process in which you create your own personal and unique deck of cards each exploring and discovering the many facets of you. SoulCollage is empowering in that it can help you tap into your own creativity and inner wisdom. It is a gentle way to access the realm of feeling, emotion and intuition. It is an aid in self-exploration and acceptance. While SoulCollage is its own process, it can offer a dimension of depth to your existing psychological, spiritual, self-care and healing practices. And, best of all, it is a fun and exciting process! This workshop, taking place during Januarys Healing Fair, will be a brief introduction to the principles of SoulCollage its structure and they whys of practicing it. You will also create a couple of cards, yourself. The cost is $10 and includes all materials to create your first two cards and a lot of additional information and resources to inspire your practice. Extra blank cards will be available to purchase.So, come along, it will be gobs of fun!We have healers coming in now expressly to help those of you who are in need of help. If you really want to heal, it is a lot easier with assistance from those who are gifted. If you know you are a healer but dont know how to proceed, come in and practice and talk to other healers. The best way to learn is to DO. Sunday Discussion Group We are the Awareness of Life Metaphysical Church and last month concluded with talks about the humongous tunnels in South America and tablets made of gold. Mike did some online investigating and came up with some additional information and shared with me how to get to sites that have even more info that is relative . Interesting! The author of the book I was quoting from is a firm believer that this planet was seeded by others from another planet. Honestly, folks, it isnt as out there as it may seem at first consideration! If you have been looking for a place to learn more, share your own wisdom and socialize on a weekly basis, we welcome you to be a part of our metaphysical church. We have been talking about Egyptian pyramids, tombs and temples plus American mounds. Most of us dont even know what those are! Come and join us sometime. Call me at the shop (425-271-3373) on Saturday to get directions to this off-site meeting (in Fairwood area) or even Sunday morning at (425-306-5827). Did I mention that Mike feeds us?!

Quote of the Month

ASTROLOGICAL PERSPECTIVESJanuary 2012By Ray Couture 206-497-3071http://astrologicalperspectives.netKEYWORD: MOMENTUMThis month for Seattle and Washington D.C Libra is on the ascendant and the Sun is in Capricorn. The moon for both D.C. and Seattle is in Aries which indicates potential legal battles and warlike skirmishes lie ahead in the middle east. An Astrological chart drawn for the beginning of January also can be applied to the entire year. We can see in this month the beginning of a no holds barred see-saw battle between both major political parties which will ultimately be decided by the November national elections. Saturn, the planet most associated with the Democratic party has been directly opposite Jupiter, the planet most often assigned to the Republican party. Now however that opposition is changing and the results of the long battle will begin as the chickens come home to roost and Jupiter moves into Taurus. The desire to evolve and serve is in the back seat. Continuing confrontation between powerful forces occupy the drivers seat. This until June when the Supreme court will become once again involved in the national political decision making process. For January alone however it is business (the lack of it) as usual. Think singer Dr Johns lyrics up on a tightropeone sides fire and the other sides ice and you will have grasped the nature of the astrological meaning of the situation. This is the fundamental context within which individuals will experience their own personal challenges and inspirations. If you know your rising and moon signs read those as well. The rising represents your path in life and the moon your inner self or soul. The sun represents the central fire of consciousness and the fuel which animates all else.ARIES: Feeling a bit more insecure these days? Seeking some higher authority in your personal spiritual life might be the way to go Aries. Battling old ghosts whose message you dislike will only result in more confusion. The core of your life this month lies in your need to adjust your desires and work on becoming a better you. Try developing a relationship between what limits you and your need to limit certain aspects of your personality. Less impulse and more organization would be a good goal too. American writer Ralph Marston has this advice: Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude. TAURUS: You encounter negative feelings about certain goings on in your life which will challenge you to clear your mind and rise above them. It is favorable that Jupiter is in your sign now as it allows you to chart a path beyond these challenges. A healthy desire to assist others will aid in maintaining positive self esteem. Your career will likely be advanced due to your responsible and stable approach to everything you encounter in that arena. Focus on your career values and continue to bring high ideals to the workplace especially when it comes to how you handle yourself in tight spots. You are in a position this month to demonstrate that your highest ideals are really very practical now. Remember as American business woman Barbara Sher points out, You dont have to get it right the first time. GEMINI: The root of your life now lies in your desire for self-improvement. Some of you are stuck in a relationship gone south. The answer to both of these realities lies in your willingness to communicate in more positive and uplifting ways. Look at it this way Gem, you need to ignore the negative responses that originate from within your mind and focus on your quest for freedom from unfair criticisms. Some of those are also edged into your mind and constitute a self induced wall of opposition. The most positive thing you can do is adapt to the fact that a change in your values is overdue and feeling guilty only makes things worse. You need to finish what you started. Poet Robert Frost says The best way out is always through. CANCER: First put some more effort into creating better communications with others. Your personal sense of stability is intimately connected to your feeling secure. This month you may be confronted with social limitations. Work on a more useful and meaningful way to make important inner adjustments. Your progress depends on being sure of your true values before you make some changes or begin a new phase of relations with a partner new or old. One word of caution: be careful not to merge too much of your dreams and inner life with another as it can leave you wanting more freedom. Swami Sivananda says to Put your heart, mind and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success. LEO: You are certainly capable of overindulgence Leo, so try to keep it to that traditional New Years party. The aftermath for the rest of January involves your desire for self-improvement via a possible risky travel plan. You may want to consider how ready you are for sudden changes in an awkward situation. Looking beyond current limits may involve rethinking plans with your partner or lover. However, if you maintain a positive attitude despite somewhat difficult circumstances, you could easily end up wiser if not richer in the end. Any way you slice it you are likely to find yourself at the center of attention, like it or not. Oscar Wilde has this for you to ponder: Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go. VIRGO: Are you ready to act on your plans? Moving is a real possibility this time. You may encounter some financial issues that threaten to block what seems like a great opportunity for self improvement or starting a new relationship. Considering your usual habit of analysis followed by procrastination, this month may seem a bit unusual for you Virgo. Impulses may gain the upper hand so be careful not to lose sight of your true needs. Others want your love and assistance but are they worthy of it? You want more freedom in your life and are willing to take some risks to achieve that end. However you should also consider operating along more spiritual than economic lines now. Purity can be a tyrant so be ready to compromise. Carl Sagan makes the point succinctly when he writes, If you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe. LIBRA: You really want to act in a way that is evolved and reasonable. This month may be your first window of opportunity in quite a while. Realistically you are not in the blame game but have been the target of those who are. Relationships are at stake, lots of them. You need to speak truthfully to those who matter in your life. Your strong suit is your ability to understand the other persons point of view. But now you are beginning to see that it is also your weakness as you have diplomatically diminished your own self-esteem. Your psychological health demands action that can break the bonds of the past and the restrictions you have endured. It is after all a new year, so why not a new you? Take heart from the words of writer Gail Sheehy: If we dont change, we dont grow. If we dont grow we arent really living. SCORPIO: Dont let stalled relationships deter you Scorpio. Youve got too much to offer the world. True, your values are evolving and your capacity for resentment is as strong as ever. Now however, advanced responses like compassion and forgiveness have an opportunity to shine. Financial issues may challenge you this month but if you keep to the high road things should work out fine. Leaving the past behind is key too. If you meet your challenges with a desire to serve others, your problems will begin to dissolve or at least fade some into the background of your daily thought process. At least make plans to forge ahead. Actress Keri Russell makes this timely observation: Sometimes its the smallest decisions that can change your life forever. SAGITTARIUS: In the general scheme of things Sag, this month challenges you to be at your best. Try constructing a path that will see you acting in a more evolved way and doing some good for others in need. The hard part is toeing the line where social limits are considered sacrosanct. No matter what your indulgent self seeks in the form of pleasure it cannot substitute for the good deeds for which you are quite capable. The sun in Capricorn is a strict master and your dalliances may well be the target of her wry criticisms. Your expansive personality is now hooked into a more solid and productive phase so expect to surprise yourself with concrete results in your professional life. See if you can match the quality of your personal life to that of your calling in life. Bill Cosby says A word to the wise aint necessaryits the stupid ones that need the advice. If the shoe fits, wear it. CAPRICORN: No matter what your experiences are in life, your duty is to use each one to build yourself an ever stronger character. This month would be a good time to embrace your limitations, rather than turn cynical because of them. Limits are the guardrails along lifes inherently dangerous passages. Best heed and honor them as one would a guardian angel. It is also time to power up your ambition to stabilize your home base. Try offering your inner child some consolation and guidance by elevating your dialogue with life to a more spiritual dimension. Practicality is the Capricorn watchword no doubt but sometimes it is more practical to imagine a new direction and begin building a path the leads in that direction. Perhaps American Author Anais Nin says it best with these words: Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the action stems the dream again; and this interdependence produces the highest form of living. AQUARIUS: What message comes now from your intuition? Career options seem stagnant as you begin an inward journey to match your personal ideals to those of a higher more inclusive level of consciousness. What you need now is movement into realms where you are able to fulfill your need to be needed. Your reality is focused on structures of social conformity which is not the happiest place for you Aquari. You might feel a bit lost now, but if you put some effort into rising above negative premises you may find that you are right where you need to be. Yes, social structures are real but so are the forces that reform them. Are you part of the problem or part of the solution? Spanish philosopher Jose Ortega y Gasset explains it this way: Life is a series of collisions with the future; it is not the sum of what we have been, but what we yearn to be." PISCES: Perseverance pays off this month Pisces but only if you stick to the positive and the practical values that reflect your basic nature. Working on creating a reliable structure that you can use to translate your vision into reality is needed. You are being asked to gain a sharper focus on your more immediate goals, if you expect to prosper this month. One way to do that is to partner with others whose vision matches yours and begin serious community efforts at translating dreams into social activities. While change roils all around you it is the best time to focus on your inner truth and bringing it to the light of day. According to business woman Barbara Sher, Doing is a quantum leap from imagining.

Monthly ArticlePoetry from Astrologistby Ray CoutureWanderersWe are wanderers upon a path we cannot leave In search of a way we can never find;We build cities like cancersOn the bones of our motherIn search of the paradise in which we live;We attempt to create allegiances and societiesWhich promise to lead us to a unity of lifeWhich has always existed There is no time but nowThe rest is all in our eyes, All in our eyes we have leftOur hearts behindAnd so we try to rememberHow it was when we were alive And the earth was our home.Copyright 2008R.L. CoutureInto the arms of my belovedInto the arms of my beloved Do I fly,Like a river flows out To the vastness of the sea,I am but a trickling stream Spreading in little deltasLike splashes of faith Upon the belly of our mother the Earth.It is she who is my beloved,And I naught but the yearning Of her soul!Copyright 2008R.L.

Bring us to our sensesLike a woman to her mensesCast thee out the ghostWhich imprisons our host!Emerge! O Queen from thy reverieWe call upon your powerFell the beast we say And make him stumble and cowerBefore the glorious future Of humanity!And this my prayer finds answerAs she emerges from waters yet to beLike a dolphin rising from the seaSeeking out seeds not yet sown,She gives birth to wonders yet unknownShe breathes and lo the wind is born;She angers and the earth below is tornHer face is ever changingRivers flowing, mountains rangingForm her features in beauty unsurpassedYes she is the answer To the cancerWhich eats away our mother,She is here,She is here,She is here,At last!There is no other!Copyright 2008R.L.

ASTROLOGICAL PERSPECTIVESSeptember 2011By Ray Couture Is available for readings206-497-3071KEYWORDS: RECTIFICATIONThis fall the karmic debris from failed and outworn social and political institutions will continue to confound, confuse and confront everyone at one level or another, causing many to feel a need to reconsider many of their primary allegiances. Just before the fall equinox, fissures in the social fabric will become increasingly visible. Global turmoil continues unabated for the foreseeable future. Status quo is no longer possible as country after country faces a seemingly unending stream of financial and/or social crises. If you are wondering what is going on here, consider this: Pluto represents natural forces at work whose goal is the elimination of what is no longer viable or relevant. What we see now emerging is first evidence of what must eventually be the motivating force for fundamental restructuring of all social and political structures. Pluto is now and will be for a decade or more in Capricorn. This sign represents the warp and woof of reality, as it is manifest in all of humanitys socio-political and religious institutions. As long as this combination of Pluto and Capricorn is involved the traditional, but now largely dysfunctional, political and social structures will be targeted for reform and renewal or elimination. Then add to the mix, that Capricorns ruling planet Saturn is currently in Libra, the sign of social values in action, and you can begin to fathom the resistance to not only the struggle (for example: same sex marriage) but also the basic underpinnings of law and order in so-called civilized society. We may very well be witness to the beginning of the end of Nationalism as a viable political entity to be replaced by an as yet unknown global socio-political convention. One must also take into account that Uranus, the planet of democratization, is energizing Aries, the sign of pioneering and aggressive behavior. What is underway is nothing less than a paradigm shift that will ultimately bring about a worldwide restructuring of global relationships. This is the fundamental context within which individuals will experience their own personal challenges and inspirations. If you know your rising and moon signs read those as well. The rising represents your path in life and the moon your inner self or soul. The sun represents the central fire of consciousness and the fuel that animates all else.

ASTROLOGICAL PERSPECTIVESSeptember 2011By Ray Couture Is available for readings206-497-3071ARIES: You know what a newborn chicken feels like after it pushes for more room so hard that it breaks the shell which has nurtured and protected it for so long? Look around, Aries, and realize there is no going back now. You have struggled mightily to create and maintain a real game face which you need to discard. Your needs can no longer be met by bravado or aggressive posturing. If you feel frustrated or lost and blocked it is because you are in need of finding where you belong and really fit. Look for your own emotional baggage, too, and find a way to jettison unhealthy attitudes. English writer, Robert Whately, presents this timely note: It is the neglect of timely repair that makes rebuilding necessary. TAURUS: What among the many delicious items that you crave, do you think will actually satisfy you? Other factors are set to intervene this fall and so remind yourself that most of what you desire is manufactured by cultural conditioning and economic pressures. You dont really need nearly as much as you want. Your wants will have to take a back seat to needs that are the result of possible changes in your career/work status. So, seek out the high ground and let others squabble over crumbs. You might want to ponder the words of Greek poet, Aeschylus, who counsels, Of prosperity, mortals can never have enough. GEMINI: The majority of you folks still feel the heat of the solar eclipse in your sign this past June, which only now offers relief from internalized stagnation this fall. Eclipses are 19 year affairs so the last one marked the end of one cycle and the beginning of another 19 year cycle. Look for clues during the first year of the new cycle to see where you may be headed. Some will find themselves wrestling with conflicting personal issues that are holding their feet to the fire. Summers Mercury retrograde left some lasting effects and the fallout continues as you work to re-calibrate your mental compass. Pay close attention to your wallet/purse as it has a decent possibility of wandering away with strangers. When you think you know something about life this fall, remember the words of Leonardo Da Vinci who said, All our knowledge has its origin in our perceptions. CANCER: Security is what you crave Cancer, but you have to pay your dues like everyone else. Sometimes, that means your personal life has to conform to someone elses standards. After the Autumnal Equinox you can expect your world view to need adjustment as the intensity of economic decomposition begins to make you question your ability to succeed. You are always cautious, though, so a large dose of the same will be what the doctor ordered, but never give up your imagination as it is your anchor in the world. Pablo Picasso provides a timely hint in saying, I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them. LEO: Creative communication skills are the key for you this fall Leo. If you need to review or improve them, this would be a good time. Your creative activities have not gone unnoticed and there is an audience waiting. Look for some improvements in your resources department around mid-fall, too. There are some risks, as you will be personally on the hook for what you create. Be ready for necessary adjustments to your message as well as your act. Some of these issues will emerge in relation to special people who are looking for your best but you may find are not so easily pleased. Keep your head clear and employ your renowned sense of humor as it will cover your sense of panic nicely. Listen to the advice of comedian Jonathan Winters who declares, I couldnt wait for success so I went ahead without it. VIRGO: Relationship issues seem to dominate as this fall gets underway. Most of it runs counter to your real worth, Virgo, so when you ad up the balance sheet or judge the pluses and minuses, please, do not short yourself in the esteem department. Limit the level of risk you take when expressing your true views by reducing criticism to parable form so as to open the mind as well as the ears of your friends and lover(s). You could be at the top of the heap when in comes to community and communication but you will need to weather a couple of failed attempts at getting your ideas across. Avoid martyring yourself in attempting to assist those who have no appreciation for your gifts of love and devotion. For guidance in these affairs rely on the words of Mohandas Gandhi, A coward is incapable of exhibiting love, it is the prerogative of the brave.

ASTROLOGICAL PERSPECTIVESSeptember 2011By Ray Couture Is available for readings206-497-3071LIBRA: Just how much stress can you take Libra? You banished many of your ghosts recently and have hopefully learned to stay grounded and centered. So, where is the stress coming from? Well, you might want to reinvent yourself as you are now looking at a whole new direction as a real possibility in your life. The challenge is: working hard to rise above old and stagnant values that still have a way of holding you down - at least mentally. Some of you may relocate in an effort to achieve this transformation. Others, who make the move, might find they only transplanted themselves as opposed to transformed. You need to keep an even keel as inadequate social values and structures are the real source of your stress. Try the advice of Maya Angelou who urges you to see that, Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told I am with you kid. Lets go. SCORPIO: Your investigative ability will come in handy this fall, Scorpio, because the truth you seek is masquerading as your enemy or at least your opposition. You have no real enemies that can match your own way of undermining your goals. Keep a light finger on that hair trigger stinger. Try some emotional discipline if you find yourself entangled with another persons karmic debt. Investigate first! should be your motto, so watch carefully and you will be glad you did. When it comes to power and control you will have to take some risks, though. Just be sure you have noted all the exits just in case. However, your penchant for riding the edges of cliffs just might pay off this fall. So try the Mae West approach that says, Between two evils I always pick the one I never tried before. SAGITTARIUS: Given all the confusion and rampant ignorance with which you are surrounded now, this would be a good time to ramp up your natural born ability to lead others to higher ground. Even if you dont lead anyone toward anything, you feel the need to make the necessary effort to meet that same challenge in your personal life. This is a paradigm shift that is underway and your psychological and spiritual growth is the only way to go. Others may just fight and scream but you have to stay above the fray. Your foundation is your centeredness, which must be virtually unshakeable. You only need to remain true to your higher calling. This fall, the intensity of your situation and that of the world around may bring some sudden changes. Be prepared, though, because, as Reverend Max Lucado points out, A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd. CAPRICORN: You are starting out this fall from a position of relative weakness, but that is what usually motivates you to bear down and work on the flaws in your game plan. This is no time to risk your security, but is a time to learn some new tricks from old dogs, if you will. Your planetary ruler is Saturn and has been wrongly associated with difficulty alone. Saturn is also a repository of wisdom that has been handed down from past generations of wise folk and fools alike. The difficulty comes when you are indiscriminate in what you choose and take the fools advice while ignoring the real wisdom of the ages. This fall would be a good time to begin changing how you perceive the world and your place in it. You may feel as though your dreams and goals are impossible but if you work to avoid your trademark cynicism you may discover there are real rewards for making necessary adjustments while you still can. Bill Gates tells us that, It is fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure. AQUARIUS: Some unfinished business goes to the head of the line this fall. You need to focus on creating some more effective structure, for your financial and creative endeavors are at a crossroad. The choice between what is best for us or me hangs heavily in your mind. Your choice may not please everyone no matter which you choose. You might experience a change of attitude that requires you to think in terms of the results you desire because your methodology is somewhat out of tune with your real needs. You need mental and emotional rejuvenation. Ultimately, this fall, you may need to discipline yourself to be patient while you sort through all the structural limitations you face along the way. Heres a word to the wise from Warren Buffett, It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently. PISCES: The usual dilemma for you, Pi, is that you have more love than you know what to do with. This fall you may need to seek higher ground for insulation from those who are takers and never givers. Progress will most likely require that you connect with your group. This may require some fine tuning of your uncanny ability to fuse with anyone. You might consider dipping into the Virgo core of your Pisces nature and begin a very necessary period of discrimination regarding with whom or with what group you best identify. Change is not finished with you and more change will likely unfold around mid-fall. By then it will be essential for your continued development and spiritual evolvement and/or economic well being. Perhaps Henry Ellis had you in mind when he said, All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on. To which I would add, it is only possible to do this from an abiding belief in yourself as well as in your dreams.
