Energy builds while Jupiter (at 22 degrees Capricorn) makes its station and turns retrograde Friday, May 9th. Jupiter rules Sagittarius, the sign of optimism, cheerfulness, the “glass is half full” attitude. Jupiter is about an inner knowing, a connection to Truth, seeing “the big picture” and having a sense of adventure as we go.

During this retrograde period, we need to turn to this inner knowing for guidance when situations or people are unclear. Instead of getting caught up with “who said what” or “who did what”, listen within. This is a good practice anyway but particularly when Jupiter is retrograde. At least once a day, spend some quiet time in reflection, prayer or meditation, just listening to Divine guidance. This all-loving support system will stimulate a knowing within that leads to success. It is not only rejuvenating but keeps us aware and present.

Living consciously takes discipline. Tuning into your higher self (not the egoic self) is what Jupiter would teach us. We need to make sure we don’t sweat the small stuff but instead stay aligned with “the bigger picture”.

Whoo hoo! The first New Moon after the Spring Equinox is Saturday, April 5th, 8:55pm PDT at 16 degrees Aries. The New Moon and Aries both represent new beginnings, self-discovery, taking the initiative, coming alive again, and starting fresh.

What a perfect time for our hopes and dreams to blossom. No self-sabotage. No saying “I can’t” or “who me” to our heart’s desire. This is the time to dream and do. Put feet on those dreams. Know who you are and what you want. How do you want to live? How do you want to experience life? How do you want to be of service to others?

Once you know, envision it. See it in your mind’s eye everyday. Play it out, feel the joy, hear the sounds, feel the excitement, see the details, feel the gratitude, breathe it in, and did I say feel? Yes, “feeling” gets your motor running , puts it in gear and gets things rolling.

Consciously create your New Adventure.
