Ignite inspiration and bring forth the energy to light up your life! Namaste' Billie

                                           Running Interference



If you are feeling energetically drained and not able 

to focus, your boundaries have been infringed upon. 

You have allowed what is not for your soul’s highest experience to infiltrate. It is best to stop the intrusion 

by running interference. You can do this through connecting with your inner wisdom and asking for guidance as to what needs to be corrected, so you 

can regain your strength and concentration. You can 

use tools such as meditation and exercise. 



Affirmation: Today I will run interference when I feel energetically drained, mentally scattered or not myself. 

Namaste'

It is with gratitude and “Oneness” vision, that we wish you a happy, healthy, joyous, prosperous New Year, with many more to come. Yes, 2012 is not the end of the world, but the beginning of new experiences shifting us into elevated states of consciousness. This year shows signs of great expansion individually and globally.   

          

Ocean tides ebb and flow,

Pendulums swing to and fro.

Sands of time erode away,

Day into night, night into day.

Mind’s eye sees early to late,

The sun and moon perpetuate.

Within this illusion of linear time,

Dwells the truth of present Divine. -Rumi

Mercury In Retrograde 

November 24-December 13th, 2011  

Shanti everyone.

Mercury goes retrograde November 24 till December 13, 2011, in the fire signs of Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. When a planet is retrograde it has the appearance of moving backward in the sky. It is an astronomical illusion. The planets do not change their orbits, stop and begin to go backward! But, because of the planets' relationship to the earth, it looks like planets begin to move backward.   During the retrograde it is best for us to slow down from our fast paced life. Slow physically down, calm the mind, gather information, and put off signing new contracts for now. A good majority of people associate the Mercury retrogrades with unnecessary fear. However, if you take a few extra precautions you can flow through the retrograde quite effortlessly and easily.   When Mercury turns retrograde it is time to clear your mind. As we turn the mind inward we can become open to new ways of thinking and new ways of perceiving. Organically, a thought or an idea precedes the manifestation of that thought or idea. In retrograde our processing of a thought is hindered and what we desire to manifest may be affected. It is best to wait to sign new contracts after the retrograde has begun. If a contract has already been processed and needs just a signature it is fine to sign, no worries.   People may feel anxious during a Mercury retrograde period. The feeling exists because we skip the "thinking part" and go straight for the manifestation. This is a time well known for people making "mistakes". With any Mercury retrograde period it is time to re-think, re-learn, rediscover, review. It may help if you put a "re" in front of words. It is important to remember that you do not have enough information to make a clear decision during this time. Try to delay any decision making until Mercury turns direct on December 13th. If you try to make a decision during this period you may find yourself feeling anxious, and you will keep changing your mind. If it is unavoidable to delay making a decision, then keep in mind that new information will come in, and you may want to incorporate more flexibility into the contract or communications. It is beneficial to use the time during the Mercury retrograde for what it is intended: research, gathering information, taking another look at your schedules, routines, and plans.   Meditation is a good tool to use because you can place yourself into a receiving mode, clearing your mind and discover new ways to perceive. Work on good communication skills by paying more attention to listening rather than to talking. Begin to be more flexible in your thinking. Mercury rules all forms of communication. Any object that transmits information is vulnerable to glitches or breakdowns. This includes telephones, faxes, copy machines, and computers. Make sure you back up all of your work. Speaking of communication, your own mind will tend to not interpret information correctly. There are many misunderstandings during this time. To avoid these miscommunications slow down and take the time to repeat what others are saying to make sure you get the right message. Don't assume! Recheck all schedule dates and appointment with others.   If you are traveling during this period it is best to double-check all flight times and reservations. It is common for changes in schedules to occur regularly. If you are traveling for business you will want to allow extra time. For vacation traveling be flexible because things out of the ordinary may happen that change the plans. This is also a time when cars end up in the auto repair shops, so pay attention to your vehicle. As stated above, Mercury retrograde periods could provide the opportunity for gaining insight and illumination. See if you can schedule in some quiet time during this retrograde period. Always mark in your appointment book or calendar when Mercury retrograde is coming so you know to, slow your mind down, gather information for a later date, and put off making decisions.   Forecast: Decisions about our goals and aspirations will be the focus during the December 2011 retrograde, assisting the transitions of career through the changing goals that will be evolving at that time. Because we are making decisions to bring forward the visionary awareness into our new journey, new endeavors, new goals, the events during the Mercury retrograde time frames help us to veer away from the past and take bold steps into our new future. These adjustments will be very necessary as they allow us to make major changes, emphasizing our bold and innovative choices. With the November/December 2011 Mercury Retrograde, the major issue of goals, plans and directions are up for revision. We are on the threshold of major change and transition regarding our direction, location and purpose. The road that we have been on for this year of 2011 now requires that we make choices and decisions. The road had ended and we must choose to go right or left, we can no longer continue the way we have. This Mercury retrograde is setting the stage for the shift out of 2011 and movement into 2012, a universal Five-year (in numerology terms) which represents CHANGE, BREAKTHROUGH AND FREEDOM. You will need to be ready to break free from the past and move into new directions, shifting your goals, location and purpose. This Mercury retrograde is also host to a Solar and Lunar Eclipse, signaling that the changes we make are setting a new pace for the NEW YEAR of 2012.

Namaste'  

being brought to us from the cosmic universe!   

if we are in the present, only the past needs forgiveness and when it is forgiven it is gone! 

your happiness and look on nothing else.  

"What I ask for is already given to me, therefore, I am in my happiness.” 

Be open today and release all that does not personally serve you, or your service for humanity. Look beyond the ego and let the energy be with you. Giving simple attention to that which must be released will do the job. It is a matter of being willing to let go and the willingness to receive!
