As with every country in the world, we have all been forced to stop what we were doing and figure out a different way of doing it. There has to be a reason and a purpose for this. I believe it is time to reflect and reconnect with nature and our guides, angels, higher selves, fairies... I believe that not living the way as we usually did is giving us the opportunity to get back in touch with nature. So why not learn from this situation and help our planet and each other as best we can for the good of All?
I recently listened to a talk from an American spiritual teacher from New York named Swami Rudrananda, affectionately known by his followers as “Rudi.” He used to say that the whole of spiritual practice was in drawing our energy back into ourselves. In his thick Brooklyn accent he’d say, “Fighting is rejection. Tension is rejection. Sit and open and get above the situation.” How often do we take the path of least resistance (which is actually the path of MOST resistance to life!) and accept our first reaction to an unwelcome experience: To tense, to reject… to block the energy.
In 2016, I lost it all: house, jobs, friendships and more. How did I survive this grief? I saved my life through the restorative power of surrender. Once I realized letting go wasn’t giving in to circumstance, my life transformed. I was no longer a victim but a victor! In 2020, we’re all going through similar loss and change and I’ll teach the 3-step surrender process which led to my personal freedom.
No matter how psychic you are, you can benefit from the opinion of another psychic. Even the best psychics sometimes ask for other opinions. None other than Edgar Cayce, called “America’s Greatest Psychic,” did so. In fact, Cayce recommended checking with two other psychics. That’s what he practiced himself.
Could anyone have predicted 2020? Take heart. Back in January, I moderated an impressive show of these EW astrologers. Ray Couture, Justin Elzie, Raphael Fitch and Karen Wennerlind all have well-deserved national/international reputations. Now it’s July and going over the first six months of 2020, I’m astounded to see how so many of their forecasts came true. Here are highlights, in roughly chronological order.
Are you craving a reminder of what it feels like to have more spaciousness to reflect on what you’d rather be doing with the 4 hours a day you scroll social media? (Hey, we all do it…even me!). How do we make the most of our offline time in the age of socializing from a distance?
If you know your moon and rising signs please listen to those as well but remember this is not about you alone. This is about your humanity and the fundamental need for survival. You can take away any personal meaning from this month’s chart but there is so much more when you think of your true self as the whole of humanity.
Stephen Arroyo was one of a handful of younger astrologers who followed in the (big) footsteps of the great Dane Rudhyar, who was heir to the seminal work of Marc Edmund Jones. What we are looking at with this lineage is a movement away from the kind of astrology that was practiced in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
