Intense, excitable, and ambitious, the Year of the Red Fire Rooster rewards dynamism and discourages lethargy. It’s time to manifest your dreams, even if the prospect is a little scary. Having the courage of your convictions will pay off in a big way in 2017.

This Year of the Rooster lasts from January 28, 2017 – February 15, 2018. Roosters are famous for their punctuality, so the early bird will definitely catch the worm during this go-getting time. Loyalty is also linked with this sign. Abandoning an existing partner or client for another could be disastrous this year — it’s better to stick with what you know. If there are misunderstandings and tensions within a relationship, use 2017 to fix them.

By the book

When it comes to business, “reduce, reuse, and recycle” should be the guiding principle of the Red Fire Rooster Year. Finding new uses for existing materials can generate huge profits. Be above-board and honest in all your dealings this year. The Rooster is famed for its principled beliefs. Exaggerated claims and broken promises will result in heavy fines and even lawsuits.

As far as careers are concerned, tourism, entertainment, and law enforcement will get big boosts this year. Caring professions like nursing, landscaping, and animal care might encounter some challenges, though.

With regard to health, pay special attention to the kidneys, bladder, and urinary tract during the Year of the Red Fire Rooster. Drink plenty of water to flush out toxins, lower the amount of salt in your diet, and limit alcohol intake for optimal health.

Rooster Years make people opinionated and dogmatic. Arguments about religion, politics, and ethics can be quite heated in 2017. Beware of doing permanent damage to relationships at this time. It will be practically impossible to change anyone’s mind this year, so adopt a “live and let live” policy when you’re in mixed company. Channel strong beliefs into group endeavors that are devoted to your favorite causes.

The Red Fire influence

2017 is a Red Fire Year, which means it will be characterized by pageantry, pomp, and circumstance. Flamboyant fashions will continue to dominate clothing stores. Formal parties and lavish ceremonies will be more successful than casual, quiet get-togethers. Break out the fine china, linen napkins, and monogrammed silverware. Make a big fanfare of happy occasions. The Year of the Red Fire Rooster urges all of us to strut our stuff in style!

Rat Horoscope

The most intelligent sign in the Chinese zodiac, you Rats will enjoy the many learning opportunities that 2017 brings. Acquiring valuable skills is the fastest way to land a lucrative job. The Year of the Red Fire Rooster is a terrific time to transition into another industry. Money won’t be plentiful, so you should not make risky investments or take out loans. Aerobic exercise will have a good effect on you, since Rooster years reward those who are active and dynamic. Mixing with friends can also cultivate success.

Ox Horoscope

Although you’re famous for your work ethic, career prospects may not be terribly exciting for you during the Year of the Red Fire Rooster. Holding down a steady job will generate enough money for both necessities and the occasional luxury, though. This resourceful time is ideal for you to open a retirement, savings, or college account. 2017 could reveal a hidden creative talent, provided you break out of your conservative shell. Your health should be good, especially if you don’t tax your system with lots of spicy food, sugar, and alcohol.

Tiger Horoscope

Your natural bravery will be rewarded in 2017, provided you set lofty goals and stay focused on them. Go after what you really want instead of hedging your bets. This rule holds true for work, money, and romance; playing it safe will be wasteful in 2017. The curious energy of the Rooster makes this a great time to take a new job or embark on a passionate romance. Respiratory problems could occur this year, though. Make sure to see an allergist or pulmonary specialist if you have trouble breathing, and regularly change the air filters in your home.

Rabbit Horoscope

The intense energy of the Red Fire Rooster Year can distress your tranquil nature. This could be a blessing in disguise. A shake-up at work could prompt you to relocate to an area where it is easier to find work. It may be necessary to go into debt to cover your expenses but don’t panic. You’ll be able to get back into the black later. Right now, you should pour most of your energy into maintaining good health. Spending time by the water can be very therapeutic.

Dragon Horoscope

The Year of the Red Fire Rooster will be a wonderful enhancement to your natural charisma. Your managerial skills will be celebrated at work, allowing you to finish projects on time and under budget. It will be necessary to devise innovative products and services to generate a profit this year. Instead of buying new materials, use upcycled ones for a fraction of the cost. You may be promoted. Nervous tension can create health problems during this high-energy year. Practice relaxation techniques to avoid headaches and stomach problems.

Snake Horoscope

Stylish and wily, you’ll have no trouble attracting admirers throughout 2017. The steadfast nature of the Rooster may not sit well with you, though. You’d rather play the field than make a serious commitment. Be clear about your intentions with a love interest. You will be able to move up the professional ladder, particularly if you present a polished image. Dress for the job you want instead of the one you already have. Make sure to go the optometrist for a check-up, as Rooster years can strain your eyes.

Horse Horoscope

Your independent energy will be rewarded during the Year of the Red Fire Rooster. 2017 is a great time to launch your own business or become a free agent. Getting a job that involves frequent travel could also be lucrative. If you work on a commission basis, you’ll see handsome profits during this intrepid year. Take this opportunity to buy a status symbol you’ve been craving. This year puts a special emphasis on good nutritional choices. Fresh produce, lean protein, and whole grains will give you an attractive glow that’s hard to resist.

Sheep Horoscope

Thoughtful and reserved, you may be challenged by the frenetic energy of the Red Fire Rooster Year. It may be necessary for you to find a new job because your existing one will become unpleasant. Take this opportunity to land a position that draws on your considerable creative talent. Getting paid to exercise your imagination will be a welcome change of pace. Resist the temptation to dip into savings; it’s better to be resourceful with money. A positive outlook will cultivate health and well-being throughout 2017.

Monkey Horoscope

Quick thinking and curious, you’ll enjoy the intellectually stimulating energy that the Year of the Red Fire Rooster affords. Although you won’t get a promotion or high-profile job, you will acquire some valuable skills that will later advance your career. Extra money could arrive through a raffle or lottery win; a single ticket is all you need to reap big rewards. Your health could be compromised by bad habits like binge eating. Practice moderation to get the energy you need, and reap all the rewards 2017 can afford you.

Rooster Horoscope

Flamboyant and charming, you’ll come into your own in 2017. The perfectionist Year of the Fire Rooster invites you to be the best you can be. When things go wrong, turn your attention inward. Embarking on a self-improvement program will be more effective than putting the blame on others. Working as part of a team will bring you tremendous career success; don’t be surprised if you are named MVP. Anemia could be a problem for you this year; taking iron supplements can prevent exhaustion from setting in.

Dog Horoscope

Your honesty will be rewarded during the candid Year of the Fire Rooster. Acting as a trusted consultant to an executive could be very profitable for you. Having a steady job will ease your tendency to worry about money. You could also make a great living with any job involving caring for people, animals, or plants. Health problems can occur in 2017 when you put your needs aside for the sake of others. Putting aside time for yourself each day will stave off stress-related illnesses like back pain and chronic infections.

Pig Horoscope

Your affectionate nature will be well received in the Year of the Red Fire Rooster. Everyone will be so anxious to get ahead; being in your relaxing company will be a welcome change of pace at this ambitious time. Pairing up with a dynamic partner could yield impressive profits for you. You may pick up several new clients or job offers as a result of this partnership. Loneliness can be a problem for you in 2017. Talking to a therapist could be very beneficial this year; don’t bottle up your emotions.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, January 26th

Aries

In the coming weeks, there can be excellent opportunities emerging for you through group connections, friendships, and networking, dear Aries. You are making a break from the past in some manner, which will help clear the path for the future. Today, the Moon is Balsamic, and it’s best to tie up loose ends rather than begin all-new projects. There can be a temporary lull in your confidence about your goals, but this is just par for the course – from time to time, checking in with yourself on your general direction can be useful. If need be, adjustments can be made, but save big decisions for a clearer time.

Taurus

With a New Moon occurring tomorrow, dear Taurus, draw upon your intuition to visualize where you’d like to go in your career or with long-term goals. In the upcoming few weeks, your powers of influence are mighty – perhaps stronger than they are all year – making now a good time to reflect upon how you’d like to present yourself. Remind yourself that you have choices. There is likely to be some tension in the air as you become acutely aware of situations, things, or attitudes that you might need to leave behind you in order to take better charge of your life in the future. Doubts are possible today, but these can help you to identify weaker areas that can use a bit of strengthening.

Gemini

The Moon is Balsamic today, dear Gemini, with a New Moon occurring tomorrow evening. While there is no need to suspend your current projects or plans, it’s not an ideal time to start brand new endeavors. Even resolutions are best left until the time of the New Moon, but you can certainly benefit from preparing to make them! With the Moon in your contemplative, deep solar eighth house all day, it’s, in fact, an ideal time to let go of an unhealthy attachment. The coming weeks are likely to find you very outgoing and adventurous. Opportunities to try or learn new things can emerge.

Cancer

This is a day for taking it easy, dear Cancer. There can be some emotional agitation to deal with today, but all in all, it’s a time for slowing down, tying up loose ends, and building strength. If people or situations are touching your sore spots, take the opportunity to understand yourself. A New Moon will occur tomorrow evening and is likely to redirect you along a new train of thought or an all-new path. Important decisions can wait for a clearer time when you have more information to work with. Today marks the end of a cycle – a time for reflection and review rather than for pushing ahead with new endeavors.

Leo

A New Moon occurs tomorrow evening, dear Leo, and for you Sun-ruled Leos, many New Moons prompt the need for a little extra rest. Because this lunation will happen in your opposite sign, it has more impact on you and possibly a significant other in your life. Empowering changes are in the works, but today, it’s better to reflect and intuit rather than to make plans that might only fall through as new information comes to light in the coming week. If insecurities or doubts emerge today, treat them as a chance to understand your relationship needs more clearly. The Moon is in your sector of habits and routines all day, inclining you to focus on details and practical concerns. It’s a great time to close a project.

Virgo

On this day before a New Moon, dear Virgo, take a lighter schedule if this is possible and find peaceful activities to enjoy. This lunation will occur in your work and health sector, bringing new beginnings and fresh energy to these areas of life. The coming weeks are excellent for getting your daily life and routines in order. New plans and projects are on the horizon. Today, reflect on what you’d like to change but put plans into action next week, when new information is bound to emerge. It’s a day for putting something to rest or behind you.

Libra

A New Moon occurring tomorrow evening impacts your creativity and your romantic life, dear Libra, bringing wonderfully fresh energy to these life departments. Today, however, keep your plans to yourself, as new information or new feelings about a situation are likely to surface next week that can change your mind. With the Moon in your home and family sector until early tomorrow, you’re in a great position to get some R & R. You may resist this to some degree, as part of you is leaning towards more excitement, but it’s better to tie up loose ends than to begin something all-new for the time being.

Scorpio

There is increased focus on your home and family life these days, dear Scorpio. New ways of approaching and improving these matters are on the horizon with a New Moon about to take place in your solar fourth house (tomorrow evening). Avoid making critical decisions for a few days – save them for when you’re more objective. However, use the energy of this lunation for motivation to take charge of your personal life. Getting things in order at home can have a wonderfully positive effect across the board. Today is useful for taking care of details and tying up loose ends.

Sagittarius

This can be a busy time, dear Sagittarius. A New Moon will occur tomorrow evening, and this points to shifts of activity and reorganization of priorities, particularly surrounding how you conduct your daily activities, how you communicate with others, and how you feed your need to learn. You’re sure to have busy days ahead, but you’re likely to feel more in charge of your time. Today is better for closing up old projects and tying up loose ends rather than new beginnings. It’s a good time for attending to your practical affairs, particularly if you have something to clear up or put behind you.

Capricorn

In the coming weeks, with a New Moon set to occur in your solar second house, dear Capricorn, you can often find great comfort in the world of the five senses. You’re also sure to feel comfortable taking care of business and tending to activities that involve building and maintaining. The Moon is in your sign today, tugging on your emotions and putting your needs on the front burner. Even so, it’s a natural end of a cycle in which new projects are best set aside in preparation for new beginnings to come. Examine insecurities if they arise, as some self-understanding can put you in a stronger position going forward into a new cycle.

Aquarius

The New Moon occurring tomorrow is in your sign, dear Aquarius, and the coming week is excellent for reinventing yourself in a personal way, perhaps with a new approach, look, presentation, or manner of expressing yourself. Today is important for unwinding and letting go of those attitudes or circumstances that no longer serve you well. Make a point of entering the new cycle beginning tomorrow stronger and wiser. You are naturally a little withdrawn now, and extra time for reflection can be useful. There can be some doubts arising today regarding finances or self-worth, and while these are temporary, it can be worth your while to explore possible weaknesses in your plans before moving forward.

Pisces

You’re in a cycle that draws you to alone time, time for reflection, meditation, and a general break from competitive, materialistic, or excessively demanding pursuits, dear Pisces. This is a period for recharging your batteries – reflecting upon the past and what you’d like to put behind you. A New Moon occurs tomorrow and is bound to direct you well in your quest for answers. After the New Moon, you may be particularly motivated to close projects, to put an end to unfinished business, and to get closure on matters that have left you wondering. Today, you are likely to seek out company, and your personal appeal is good.

If You Were Born Today, January 25

You have tremendous insight into others’ character and motivations. A little mysterious yourself, you need time to retreat and refresh your spirit frequently. You don’t always feel understood, but you are also complicated and don’t always let others in! However, you thrive in partnership. Your nature is a dual one, and you may hold down two different jobs as well. You are attracted to strong and determined people. With intellect and intuition equally strong, you are a highly interesting and intelligent friend. Famous people born today: Alicia Keys, Robert Burns, W. Somerset Maugham, Virginia Woolf.

Your Birthday Year Forecast:

You can draw upon your inner wisdom or your sixth sense and intuition often and quite successfully this year. Previously hidden or unacknowledged talents may emerge. Intuition runs high. You are more sensitive artistically, your imagination is stirred, and you have an increased appreciation for subtleties. You are inspired and could even inspire others with your words. Some of your hunches could be prophetic. You are thinking more creatively, and express yourself with more sensitivity, compassion, and warmth.

You are particularly talented at negotiating and organizing this year – your plans have real potential and you are not only good at thinking things through, but also at putting your plans into action.

With Venus conjunct Chiron in your Return chart, something big is in the works regarding your love life this year. You’ll have a chance to heal old wounds with regards to love this year. You’re also bound to find new ways of making money. There is real creativity here – you are not applying the same old rules or taking part in the same old patterns.

You are more willing than usual to make sacrifices if it seems the best way to make improvements in relationships and with money matters. You can be quite particular in your tastes, and good with money and savings this year.

Even so, Venus in challenging aspect to Saturn suggests some ups and downs in the year ahead. Getting serious about love or money (or both) will be a theme this year. You are more aware than usual of your limits and this can lead to a more structured approach to spending and saving. The responsibilities of partnership or financial responsibilities may be magnified this year. This gives you the chance to bring more order or structure into your life as you recognize needs for security.

Watch for a tendency to become involved in power struggles and one-upmanship, and watch for asserting yourself defensively or explosively. You should make extra effort to respect and validate others when expressing what you need and want.

You have a stronger ability to direct your energies into meaningful activities during this period, and going it alone in order to get things done is often helpful.

You crave and seek more freedom this year, and how you deal with this issue makes all the difference as to the overriding themes of the year. If you recognize your need for changes in key areas of your life and adapt accordingly, this can be an exciting year of discovery. However, if you resist change and insist on keeping things status quo, you are bound to feel very restless, tense, and rebellious. Either way, making healthy changes should be the focus instead of change just for the sake of change. Spontaneity, not impulsiveness, is the key to success this year. Fortunately, you have a lot of cosmic support for this.

You are expressing yourself more clearly this year and you might help guide or instruct others quite successfully, whether you do this formally or informally. There is a pronounced ability to order your thoughts and ideas and to recognize patterns. You can especially enjoy making plans, lists, and connections.

You succeed best in fields or areas that allow you to make something beautiful, attractive, and/or entertaining. You are particularly dynamic at this point in your life, sometimes impatient, and you often experience bursts of energy. Personal magnetism is tremendous this year. This is a good period for creative projects and joining with others in pursuing a common goal.

The year ahead is an important one for developing relationships and making beneficial connections. It’s also a good time for making lifestyle changes, particularly related to money and relationships. Work on your ability to pace yourself, as it will lead to greater happiness and health. A more organized approach to money and business can work well for you now.

2017 is a Number Nine year for you. Ruled by Mars. This is a year of completion and transition. It is a time when we need to let go of things that no longer serve their purpose, and hold on to things that have a future. It is a time of cleaning out dead wood, not necessarily for new beginnings. It can be a time when a burden has been taken off your shoulders, and it can be a year of giving of yourself. Advice – let go of things that are holding you back, give of yourself and express your sympathetic, compassionate side.

2018 will be a Number One year for you. Ruled by the Sun. This is a year of action. The seeds you plant now, you will reap later. Others might find you less sociable, as you are busier than ever and you focus on your activities and your needs. Still, you are outgoing and your initiative is stronger than ever. Advice – Stand alone, take action, start fresh, express independence.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, January 25th

Aries

This is an excellent time for finding the right people or support systems, dear Aries, and for bonding through shared interests and viewpoints. Even so, expectations of others, particularly partners, should be kept in check. Seeing what you want to see in someone may end up disappointing, so why even go there? You are taking great pleasure in your downtime right now, but you are also inclined to want company, and it can be difficult to blend both. You may need to give up a pleasure in order to attend to someone else’s needs, but the rewards can be great. The Moon in your career sector all day can help you to focus on your goals and the benefits of planning ahead, however.

Taurus

Watch for a tendency to go overboard today, dear Taurus. You may feel torn between social pleasures and work or health pursuits. While the social side of things may seem the natural winner, you are actually taking quite a bit of pleasure from your routines these days, so it’s not an easy choice. Alternatively, you may have taken on so much work or tasks that you need to pass up on an opportunity now. You might also misjudge a situation or a person and have a hard time focusing. However, the Moon in your adventure sector helps lift your spirits. Allow your creativity to flow. This can, in fact, be a great time for clarity about an educational, legal, or travel matter.

Gemini

There can be a real tendency to procrastinate today, dear Gemini. You might end up focusing on everything but your biggest priority! This may, in fact, be a skillful way of avoiding something, but keep in mind that it won’t go away if you put it off. Venus at the top of your chart these days suggests a greater interest and pleasure in your career or the pursuit of your goals, and perhaps the adulation of others. However, today you can find it difficult to stay focused. Watch for going over the top when it comes to pleasing others and extending gestures because you may miss the mark. Friends or a partner can be supportive and cooperative, and your personal life may fare quite a bit better than your professional or public life right now.

Cancer

In your enthusiasm to enjoy new experiences, dear Cancer, you may end up taking on too much right now. A big part of you is itching to get out and about, while another part is just as into getting comfortable and sticking with familiar people and places. While these two things can seem mutually exclusive, you might be able to compromise in order to enjoy yourself more fully today. There is also a possibility of putting your faith into the wrong things now, perhaps in an effort to find more meaning in your activities. The trick is to understand your desires before seeking to fulfill them. Business and work matters can strengthen now, however. In fact, you may make a significant advance.

Leo

You are eager about many things these days, dear Leo, and your personal interests can be exciting but sometimes a little overdone. Today may be one of those times — when having too many balls in the air keeps you from pursuing a more satisfying line of thought or project. Watch also for see-sawing between a light-hearted and serious approach in your interactions which can leave others confused as to what you truly intend. Ease off if things are not clicking now. There is no need to push things. When timing is a little off, leaving things alone to see if they naturally fall back into place is often a good strategy. You can get a leg up creatively speaking today, and your self-assurance can open up doors on romantic, travel, and publishing fronts.

Virgo

Emotionally speaking, you can feel you’re advancing and ahead of the game today, dear Virgo. Support from family or a partner can come easily now. Even so, there is a small tendency to misjudge or overdo things today with Venus in your partnership sector in awkward aspect to Jupiter in your resources sector. It’s particularly important to avoid excessive people-pleasing now, which can be a tendency if you are sensitive to something being a little off in a relationship – you won’t end up feeling any better if you do. Regarding money and possessions, while some disregard of the material world can be worthwhile, too much will end up costing you – at the very least, energy, and perhaps some money too. You are inclined to comfort yourself with extravagances rather than addressing the real reason for restlessness.

Libra

A Venus-Jupiter challenge points to minor misjudgments today, dear Libra, and for you, this is likely to do with your ability to take on more tasks. In fact, you may be thinking the bigger you go, the better, but extravagances now not only fail to truly satisfy, but they may also end up regrettable. As well, even though you’re doing a lot for others, you may not be getting the appreciation for your efforts that you crave. There could be some confusion about what you should do next or how to advance, but your best bet now is to keep things simple and to let go of wild expectations. Conversations with a partner or sibling can be encouraging and even empowering – you are building one another up.

Scorpio

This is not the best day for sticking to the rules or for focused attention, dear Scorpio. Plans may not pan out as expected, but perhaps the most noticeable area of life with unexpected results is your social life right now. Part of this has to do with your seemingly contradictory needs – part of you wants to take a risk or two on creative or romantic levels, and another part is a bit reclusive and tied too tightly to the past to go out on a limb. Try not to compensate with extravagance or excesses which won’t address the actual problem. Take extra time for self-understanding. It’s hard to compete with a memory, so aim to work on releasing yourself from something from the past that is preventing you from enjoying the moment.

Sagittarius

With Venus and your ruler, Jupiter, in strained relationship to one another now, dear Sagittarius, discomfort or restlessness might prompt us to overcompensate. Poor choices and planning may result, but taking some extra time for self-understanding can help you over this small bump in the road. With Venus in your home and family sector, you take greater pleasure than usual sticking with familiar people and things. However, Jupiter in your social sector not only encourages you to socialize, but it also wants you to take a chance and make changes. Disconnects may result with family and/or friends, but they may very well reflect a dichotomy within. You have excellent opportunities for connecting well with a child or romantic friend today, however, and through taking care of someone’s needs, you gain a sense of accomplishment.

Capricorn

On most days, you prefer to make plans and stick with them, dear Capricorn – unpredictability can put you off. Today, with the Moon in your sign, however, you’re a little more open to spontaneity, and it’s a good thing with a Venus-Jupiter aspect occurring now that tends to breed unexpected results, particularly when it comes to people and pleasures. There is a tendency to go overboard or to excess if we feel uncomfortable or if we’re trying to avoid responsibility. Perhaps above all now, as excited as you may be to share some news or an idea, you may be better off waiting, as timing may be off. Keep things simple and reasonable now, and aim to stay flexible.

Aquarius

The Moon in your privacy sector all day points to a need to tuck yourself away for a spell, dear Aquarius, largely because you need a little extra time away from the hustle and bustle to process and renew yourself emotionally. Today, avoid the trap of looking outside of yourself when assessing your worth. Think about your accomplishments and measure them only in terms of what you’d like to do. A desire for security or familiarity is strong right now, but so is the need to experience and learn new things. While these needs seem too divergent to combine, if you truly seek them, you can find ways to compromise and satisfy both needs. Be particularly aware of a tendency to overspend now. Try not to borrow from the future by promising or putting off something that will eventually cost you. There can be a pleasant advance with a friend, studies, or a sibling occurring now, however.

Pisces

You may stumble upon an opportunity to advance towards your goals through an alliance made now, dear Pisces, and you can feel that professionally or financially speaking, you’re moving to a better place. Today has some strained energy to it, however – very different but equally persistent needs seem to compete with one another. As much as you’re valuing your independence right now, you are also very drawn to deeper connections and experiences. Someone may be paying extra attention to you, and while this feels good, it may cause waves in an established relationship. Indecision can wear on you on a social or personal level, but do your best not to let this drain you of energy. In addition to being cautious with decisions related to intimacy, be a little more vigilant than usual when it comes to loans, investments, and other financial decisions.

Tidal Waves Of Light In 2017

a message from Gillian MacBeth-Louthan

To view more of Gillian’s insight, please visit her website, The Quantum Awakening

As Earth moves into more tidal waves of light in 2017 they will penetrate the cell membranes and DNA, bringing forth an ancient revival in a modern biological tent. These deep space particles are living photons of light, they are ancient stardust. They come forth as cosmic rays with no heavenly barricades of any kind, dispersing their molecular intent into all areas of our life, from moods to health to weather. They are aggressive and demanding, making you look at what you do not want to see. Like a Personal trainer they demand more of you than you think you are capable of giving. As the heart is penetrated with these cosmic rays, electrical pulses will activate parts of the brain and memory that have been veiled.

You are a biological unit of light; you are a holy ambassador of love in human form. Don’t try so hard dear ones but allow the softness of the incoming light to penetrate your heart opening the door to a planetary healing.  Allow this energy to transform you into a place of peace, not outside yourself but within yourself. It is a Time of cleansing and cleaning the house of your soul. It is a time to forgive yourself for past transgressions in actions and thoughts and deed’s

Thru out 2017 the feeling of movement will be felt within the cells of humanity as earth will dimensionally float like an island that moves ever so slightly with the changing tides and moody seas. We are no longer attached to any outcomes. Like a homing pigeon we know where we belong but the winds of change are powerful and push us in a direction we would not choose to follow of our own accord.

Like a dazzling autumn leaf, we allow that ‘which is’, to buffer our shift.  Stargates open and close on many levels issuing decrees in ancient words.   Liquid solutions to the ice heaves are not as available as one would think. Learning to float is ‘a must’. The codes of light you asked for come forth as you walk gently with a big heart to the end of your rainbow.  Each hologram serves the truth of the matter. Shifting holograms is as easy as walking from the kitchen to the bathroom in your own home; it is a matter of perception. Like a carpenter bee you will learn to skate the highways and byways of dimensional conversion as all of Earth enters a new hologram. This ‘mother of all holograms’ will support the billions of smaller projections within her own body like a great fish before it gives birth to millions of eggs.

Imagine your life filled with open doorways and unlimited possibilities. Will you become a verb or will you stay a boring pronoun? Will you fill in the blanks of your hearts desires or will you allow others to paint the pictures of your future?  Like one who misinterprets cave paintings, every school of thought has many teacher and many students. Each observing from a different angle of light.  It is the angles them selves that create shadow, it is in the shadows that we meet our most powerful teachers.

Everyone will unwrap themselves to see the true diamond light that lives inside. Reflections of certainty shine as a timeless and eternal flame.  Human faces show the map of worry as lines are crossed and new roads explored.  We are all under reconstruction. Sometimes a road once traveled ends; sometimes barriers are built as fortification. The water lines of change will soon be seen forever as memories are etched through the sands of time. Let the guiding star that lives in you, ‘Shepard your dreams’. Smiles come to the face of the old ones that know… frowns come to the face of the young ones that think they know…Verification codes of authenticity are revealed in a timeless sequence of serendipitous events.

Timeless truths are exactly that! Petrified learning’s have shown their rusty caustic self to all who will look in their direction. Singing a sirens song they hypnotize those who talk too much to really listen. Everything serves the Light and one should have no regrets on any level. Words now have much more punch and you who have beckoned those energies with your mutterings will see the results. Like toxic clouds after a volcanic eruption the ash will cover what once was, allowing a new sheath to envelop the land. We, who wear the Codes of Light, do so throughout time, never ceasing to trust what lives in our divine blueprint.  We have been cut from a blessed cloth and sewn into a holy vessel that can sail the sea thru any storm, earthly or otherwise.

Old Disting/Burns’ Night/St. Paul’s Day

Important in old runic calendars, Disting is the feast of the Disir, the Norse guardian goddesses. On this day a major festival of the gods was held at the temple in Uppsala, Sweden. Burns’ Night celebrates Robert Burns, the Scots poet. Burns’ Night revels are a modern continuation of Disting. The day is also a weather marker:

If St. Paul’s Day be fair and clear,
It do betide a happy year.
But if it chance to snow or rain,
Then will be dear all kinds of grain.
If clouds or mists do dark the sky,
Great store of birds and beasts will die.
And if the winds do bly aloft;
Then wars shall vex the kingdom oft.

If it should thunder on St. Paul’s Day, great winds are predicted.

On Wednesday, January 25th, We Celebrate….

Vietnamese New Year
MOTHER OF TEN THOUSAND THINGS

Theme: Luck

Symbol: Any Lucky Token

About the mother: This goddess represents the unknowable and uncontrollable things we face daily. In Indo-Chinese tradition, she is part of the Universe’s ebb and flow, ever changing and ever the same. Turn to her when you feel as if ten thousand things in your life were up in the air.
To Do Today: Take out any item that you associate with good fortune. Name it after the one area of your life in which you need more luck (naming something designates its purpose and powers). Hold the token to the night sky (symbolic of the Universe’s vastness), saying,

Mother, see this symbol of my need.
Empower it with your fortunate influence to fill my year with _____ [fill in with the name of your token].

Carry this with you as often as possible to manifest that energy in your life.

In Vietnam, this holiday, known as Tet, is filled with ceremonies for luck over several days, including an offering to the goddess and ancestors to give good fortune a boost. Eating rice today invokes the spirit of prosperity. Or you can try a traditional divinatory activity instead. Make note of the name of the first person you meet today. If the name has an auspicious meaning (check a baby-name book), your meeting presages a wonderful year filled with the Mother’s serendipity.

Oh, If Belief Was Wind

If Belief was wind, dreams would be fulfilled;
not a tear shall stain a cheek to blush,

If belief was wind, hearts would mend anew;
no pain will crease thy mouth to frown;

If belief was wind, eyes be clear to see;
no burdens alight the shoulders to slump,

If belief was wind, ears bear the good news;
no worries of illfate or hurt drag all down,

If belief was wind, clear is the head to think;
all that is of experience be not pain by Love,

If belief was wind, it comes from everywhere, never lost;
all may drink of its well and be satisfied anew forever,

If belief was wind, may we all believe the truth
all around us, through us, it is us, it is God, believe…
