Beautiful Light,

We are on the cusp of a powerful trinity of celestial alignments that are going to create big breakthroughs in the consciousness and psyche of humanity.

Before we get into all of the new and exciting updates, I’d like to share a few highly important events that happened in February, which have set the stage for massive personal and global breakthroughs to occur.

One of the events that took place recently, which captured the attention of more than 100 million people around the world, was the NFL Super Bowl game, which occurred on February 7 in the United States.

Most people don’t usually think of competitive sporting events when they think of spirituality. However, during this year’s Super Bowl halftime show, Coldplay was the featured band chosen to rock in front of the world stage. It’s also during the halftime musical performance that even more people tune in to watch.

During the halftime show, Coldplay drenched their set, their performance, every television set tuned in, and the consciousness of more than 100 million people around the world with sacred geometry symbols, which included the Flower of Life symbol, among many others.

These symbols, as many on the spiritual path know, serve as potent activators that bring into one’s consciousness and auric space the frequencies of Divine Love, Wholeness, and Oneness.

The result was that at the exact same time, more than 100 million people around the world who may not have been actively choosing to pursue a path into higher consciousness, were seeded with the sparks of Divine Love, Wholeness, and Oneness, so that their awareness could begin to shift from the “me” consciousness to the “we” consciousness.

This brief unification of humanity has created a large opening in the collective human psyche for us to be able to embrace higher states of existence, and to finally transcend the illusions of separation, fear, greed, and anything else vibrating at a similar frequency.

This event was definitely not a coincidence, and is playing a key role in the next chapter of our collective journey.

So far in 2016, we’ve also experienced some other events that have been asking for us to pay attention to them.

Some of these events include the recent stock market crash, the rise of the outsider (non-establishment) candidates in the U.S. presidential elections, and the emergence of refocusing on resolutions that were once brushed to the side, but that are now being valued as important human rights issues that desire to be addressed and resolved.

The First of Three Upgrades

On March 8, 2016 we will experience a total solar eclipse.

Eclipses are some of the most powerful astrological occurrences, because they often usher in major changes.

During an eclipse, humanity is upgraded energetically, so we may feel highly charged. It might be a good idea to write down whatever inspirations we receive at this time, so we have them available for easy access later on, to integrate into our lives.

An eclipse is also a great time for healing, because it brings to the surface deeply buried patterns that are no longer aligned with our highest potential.

If you find yourself and others feeling a bit more emotional or sensitive than usual during this time … be gentle with yourself and them, as this will allow the healing to be a much smoother experience.

As we use this time for healing, it’s also a great opportunity to let go of the illusions of separation, and to remember that we have always been One with all of Life, including with each other.

This particular total solar eclipse is asking us to take inspired action towards creating the kind of reality we truly desire for ourselves.

A big part of this action will begin by asking us to let go of the unnecessary pressure and judgmental patterns we’ve projected onto ourselves and others.

Once this pressure is addressed and resolved, the path will be cleared for us to align with the people, places, and experiences that will support us in creating our desired reality.

One of the greatest ways to work with this solar eclipse is to be clear about what our intentions are, and to be willing to follow through on them when the opportunity to do so presents itself.

During a total solar eclipse, meditating on the Sun strengthens our internal Sun (located in the solar plexus/stomach region), which represents our Divine power.

This helps us to express ourselves more openly and freely, without holding back. It also helps us build confidence in ourselves, including our gifts, talents, and overall presence in this world.

The Second Upgrade

On March 20/21, we will receive another energetic upgrade with the equinox.

The spring equinox signifies that days are getting longer, while the autumn equinox represents the days getting shorter.

During an equinox, the length of day and night become equal. This reminds us to look within ourselves, to create balance between our own inner Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine Self.

The equinox is also a time of renewal and new beginnings. This is an excellent time to focus on what we are grateful for, while also moving forward with fresh pep in our step.

An equinox is an excellent time to:

• Simplify our living space/environment, so that we are able to release many of the things we haven’t been using. The general principle I follow is: If I haven’t used it in the past year, it can now find a loving new home with someone who will truly benefit from receiving it.
• Try something new that feels to be out of our comfort zone.
• Switch up our routine every few days over the next few months, to keep ourselves open, fresh, and available to the opportunities presenting themselves to us.
• Begin a new class or spiritual practice, to reconnect ourselves with our true nature of love.
• Forgive any and all people, places, and experiences in our lives that still trigger us emotionally in any way.
• Create a balance between our Divine Feminine aspect (our creative, nurturing, playful side) and Divine Masculine aspect (our passionate, action-oriented, motivated side).
• Begin a new project or creative venture that feels to be aligned with our heart’s desires.

If any of these suggestions feel expansive and joyous to you, know that it’s a confirmation that it may be time for you to integrate them into your life, so that you can make room for fresh new blessings that are aligned with your heart’s desires.

The Third Upgrade

On March 23, we will experience a penumbral lunar eclipse.

A penumbral eclipse occurs when the moon only enters the penumbra area of the Earth’s shadow. This type of eclipse causes the moon to only darken slightly when viewed from Earth. However, this doesn’t take away from the impact it will have on us energetically.

The lunar eclipse is a great time to illuminate ourselves from within.

A lunar eclipse gives us time to be introspective, and to look a bit more closely at the way we are choosing to express our emotions. It gives us the opportunity to look within ourselves, and to release the blocks we’ve been carrying that have weighed us down.

This eclipse will serve as the third major energetic upgrade we will receive in March.

The key right now is to continue being gentle with ourselves, and to align with what brings us joy and fulfillment. If we focus on what’s not working in our lives, we magnify them, and manifest more of those things into our lives.

By being kind, loving, and gentle with ourselves, it becomes much easier to focus on the blessings in our lives, and in doing so, we can expand into creating more of them.

We will leave March completely different from when we entered it. So hold onto your hats, and get ready for a fun, fast, and transformational month!

Till next time,

Miraculously yours,

Emmanuel

March 2nd

St. Chad and the Holy Wells Day

This day was sacrd to St. Chad, in Old English Cheadda, pronounced Chad-da, the patron saint of healing wells and medicinal springs; St. Chad would spend hours in meditation and prayer, naked and immersed in water up to his neck. His symbol was the Crann Bethadh, the tree of life.

The tradition on this day is to make an offering of flowers and sweet cakes to the deity of the well or spring closest to your home. For those who dwell in the city, place a small table with a fountain on it near the front door. Place your flowers and cakes next to the fountain. Ask a simple blessing for good fortune for the coming year. When you enter your home, drop a coin in the fountain for continued prosperity.

Daily Magickal Applications for Wednesday

To the Romans, this day was called Dies Mercurii, or “Mercury’s day” Mercury was a popular character in the Roman pantheon. A messenger of the gods, he presided over commerce, trade, and anything that required skill or dexterity. The Celts also worshiped Mercury and eventually equated him with the Norse god Odin (some spelling variations on this name include Wotan, Wodin, and Wodan). In Norse mythologies, Odin, like Mercury, is associated with poetry and music. Interestingly enough, both Odin and Mercury were regarded as psychopomps, or the leaders of souls, in their individual mythologies.

Odin, one of the main gods in Norse mythology, was constantly seeking wisdom. He traveled the world in disguise as a one-eyed man with a long gray beard, wearing an old, beat-up hat and carrying a staff or a spear (which brings to my mind images of Gandalf from The Lord of the Rings). In the Old English language, this day of Mercury evolved into Wodnes daeg, “Woden’s day,” or Wednesday.

Wednesday carries all of the planetary and magickal energies and associations of the witty and nimble god Mercury himself. Some of these mercurial traits included good communication skills, cleverness, intelligence, creativity, business sense, writing, artistic talent, trickiness, and thievery. And don’t forget all of those wise and enigmatic qualities associated with the Norse god Odin/Wodin, not to mention the goddess Athena’s contributions of music, the arts, handmade crafts, and writing. Wednesdays afford excellent opportunities for seeking wisdom, changing your circumstances, and improving your skills, be they in trade and commerce, music and art, or in communication and writing.

Wednesday Witchery

Be bold and daring today! Expand your knowledge of the Craft by working with the planetary energies of Mercury on this multifaceted day of the week. Consider the Greco-Roman gods Mercury and Hermes and all of the many lessons they have for you. Embrace change and movement, and work on your communication techniques. Conjure up a little good luck for yourself with that Mercury dime spell. Call on Athena to inspire you to try magickal arts and crafts and to be more creative in your own spellwork and witchery.

Meditate on Odin and see what you can discover about him. I wonder what sort of fabulous and fascinating magickal wisdom you will uncover? Odin is a shaman, after all; he may appear in many guises and faces. I guarantee that he will make you laugh at yourself before he is through with you, but you will learn. It’s up to you what you do with that knowledge. Will you let it shapeshift into wisdom?

Wednesday is the wild and wily day of the week, so try to go with the flow; don’t fight the quirky energies of the day. Most importantly, follow your heart, and always keep a good sense of humor, because of Wednesdays you will really need it.

Wednesday

Ruler: Wodin, Mercury

Colors: Orange, light blue, and gray

Power Hours: Sunrise and the 8th, 16th, and 24th hours following

Keywords: Success, creativity, communication

The word Wednesday is reminiscent of the Norse wind god Wodin, which is referenced in the popular rhyme verse “Wednesday’s child is full of woe.” This does not mean that those born on this day are full of sorrow or trouble. To be full of Woden (Wodin) means to be full of wind, to be spirited. Woden was such a powerful pagan god that the German church fathers changed the name of his day to Mittwoch, meaning midweek, in an attempt to exorcise his influence.

In the Spanish word for Wednesday, miercoles, we clearly see its connection to Mercury. Under the guidance of Mercury; Wednesday is a day of swift activity, communication, correspondence, and phone calls. This is a good day for journalists, writers, poets, bargaining, hiring employees, and visiting friends.

On Wednesdays, the hour of sunrise and every eight hours after that are also ruled by Mercury, making these times of the day doubly blessed. These are the strongest four hours for ritual work. Check your local newspaper, astrological calendar, or almanac to determine when sunrise occurs.
