Hello All
Happy Friday
My NEW BOOK
Poetry from a Butterfly in the Garden
MORE BOOK SIGNINGS WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON
The last Friday of July brings a full lunar eclipse, intense energies from 5 planets in ‘retrograde’ effecting everyone and the introduction to the world of my 2nd book, Poetry from a Butterfly in the Garden!
Where to start?
First, I am very happy and honored that my next book, Poetry from a butterfly in the Garden, is now in print. It has been 8 years in the making with a great deal of inspiration from Spirit, special muses, patience and hard work. In part, it is about the journey of a butterfly through the seasons and it is my hope that this book will be enjoyed by many for a long time to come. Right now you can purchase both of my books at Inner Path, New Age People or on Amazon. They are also available as e-books on Amazon.
I will be having other book signings and will let you know soon when and where those will take place. THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT!

Do things seem a bit crazy in your life right now? That may be a huge understatement!
Everyone on our planet is being strongly effected right now, in very big ways, and yet most on our planet don’t know all the reasons why.
Things in your life may seem very chaotic, confused and anxious as well as energized, synchronistic and full. We used to be more aware of the power of ‘As Above, So Below’. We knew that the energies effecting our planet Earth effect us. We knew more about the planets, moons, their alignments and their influence on our lives personally. We aren’t taught much about it now and most people are oblivious to the power the planets have on our lives. That doesn’t mean the planets don’t still effect all of us, it just means we have become ignorant of those effects.
Tonight there will be one of the longest lunar eclipses in quite a while. Sometimes we have three eclipses in a very short period of time. That is true right now. There has already been a partial eclipse of the sun this month, on Friday the 13th, visible only from parts of Antarctica, Tasmania, Australia and a very narrow slice of New Zealand. Another partial eclipse of the sun will take place on August 11; it will be visible to those living in northern Europe as well as a large portion of central and eastern Asia.
We have not been able to ‘see’ any of these eclipses from America and we won’t be able to ‘see’ the long lunar eclipse tonight. But just because we can’t ‘see’ them doesn’t mean it doesn’t influence the energies surrounding us all.
Tonight, because the moon is further away from Earth than at other times, we will have a small moon, moving more slowly than usual, passing almost straight through the middle of a larger-than-normal shadow of Earth. This will result in an inordinately long eclipse whose total phase will last 1 hour and 43 minutes, just 4 minutes shy of the longest possible totality. This is the longest total lunar eclipse Earth will see until June 9, 2123. The average duration of a total lunar eclipse is about 50 minutes.
Does the moon effect you?
The gravity of the moon moves the tides here on Earth. The moon is responsible for moving oceans of salt water on this planet twice a day, sometimes in big ways. Everybody knows that.
You are approximately 80% salt water and because of that the moon effects you too, whether you are aware of it or not.
Hospitals, police departments, fire departments – all over the world – staff more people two days before a full moon till two days after a full moon. They know that the moon effects people in a variety of ways.
But what about the other planets in our solar system. Surely they are too far away to influence us?
Actually, they can. And right now they are adding to the already crazy, chaotic and turbulent times here on Earth.
Five planets are in retrograde at the moment. When a planet appears to be rolling backwards in its orbit from Earth, the depth of the effect it can have on our lives is immeasurable. Each planet influences our world in a major way. Every single celestial body hanging in our sky defines our universe in a way that exists inside each of us. When a planet is going through retrograde, it’s usual power can be twisted and reshaped, stirring our lives in complicated and mysterious ways. Astrology experts will say that without retrogrades, nothing would ever change. When five planets are going through retrograde at once, change will be the norm for awhile, rather than the exception.
Saturn is the ruler of limitations, routines, authority, and karma. It gives you your ability to maintain discipline and carry out responsibilities. Saturn has been in retrograde since April 17 and will stay that way until September 6th. During this time you may find yourself dealing with all the mistakes you’ve made in the past and facing the repercussions. You are learning to rise above who you were and knowing more clearly your personal values. It can signal a time of being more productive at work or becoming more mature in life. Saturn is essentially putting you through spiritual boot camp.
Pluto has been in retrograde since April 22nd and will stay that way till September 30th. We’re often told to hide our shadows, to lie about our real feelings and put on a composed face but during this time your ‘shadow’ side might be more visible and some of the uglier sides of life can be coming to the surface. There can be something empowering about spending time with your darkness. You remember how your scars have made you stronger. You reflect on the strangeness stirring in your soul, recalling what it is about you that makes you so unique. Pluto rules over transformation and mysteries and until this retrograde comes to an end you may be learning that without darkness, there can be no light.
Mercury is in retrograde from July, 25th until August 18th. Mercury rules all communications such as computers, phones, travel, electronics and all business/personal communications & documentations. When mercury moves retrograde, this may be a time of misunderstandings, mis-communications, computers & electronics crashing and plans going haywire! This is a time to err on the side of caution and make sure all details are attended to. This is not a favorable time for signing contracts and do remember to back up your computers.
Neptune went into retrograde June 18th and will stay there till November 24th. Neptune influences our imaginations, psychic powers, the subconscious and illusions in life. Neptune when direct inspires great imaginative solutions, deep profound fantasies and is a powerful time for writers of fiction and sci-fi. When retrograde, we can be be forced to wake up and take a look at reality. You may be forced to face the reality that you’d rather avoid, making your reality that much more meaningful and powerful when held in the light.
Two days ago, on June 26th, Mars went retrograde. This planet rules over the animalistic energy that drives our every move. It has power over your aggression and the raw emotions that simmer beneath the calm. Without Mars, we would never feel inspired to take what we would like to be ours. However, until its retrograde ends on Aug. 27, that inspiration won’t find you as easily. The fire that usually smolders confidently through your decisions will either evade you or burn you. It’s important that we take a look at how we use our will, and during this retrograde you’ll learn a whole new meaning of goal-getting.
All that is enough to change anyone – including you!
The good news is that those changes can strengthen, empower and shine a bight light on the BEST OF YOU during some of the worst of times!!! When change occurs, we usually opt for the change that brings the best into our lives, not the worst. The planets will at times ‘line-up’ to help us do that. The ‘retrograde’ aspects can make things at first seem very dark, but after the dark comes the dawn.
We are all in this together and will get through it together.
Be more patient with yourSelf and others.
Be more careful with yourSelf and others.
Be more loving with yourSelf and others . . . and you will find yourSelf soaring with the planets through this strange yet beautifully unique time on Earth.
Drops of Jupiter
by Train
Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there’s time to change, hey, hey
Since the return of her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey
Hey, hey
But tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?
Tell me, did you fall from a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?
Now that she’s back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there’s room to grow, hey, hey, yea.
Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
I’m afraid that she might think of me as
Plain ol’ Jane, told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly
so he never did land
But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the milky way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you
Even when I know you’re wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze-dried romance
Five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had, and me
But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way?
And tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?
And tell me, did you fall from a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself
Na-na, na-na, na-na
Na-na, na-na, na-na
And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day?
And did you fall from a shooting star, fall from a shooting star?
And are you lonely looking for yourself out there?

Next Meeting Friday – August 3rd, at 6:30
Many in our world are aware and know that although their loved one’s Spirit has passed into Heaven the sacred and eternal communications and connections with their loved ones still continue with them after death.
The Griffin Grief Group’s mission is to help everyone learn to strengthen, use and honor the many and varied Sacred Messages received from loved ones in Spirit. Over time, these sacred messages and communications help ease grief through the eternal bonds of God’s Love and Grace.
Whether you have lost your parent or child, spouse or friend, the loss and grief can feel like it will consume your heart. The Griffin Grief Groups are here to help you connect through Spirit with your loved one in Spirit. You will meet others who understand deep grief from their own experiences. Sharing the eternal Connection we all are capable of knowing, seeing and using in our daily life from our loved ones in Heaven allows each of us to realize how deep and everlasting their love is for us in God’s eternal Home and helps lessen grief.
Our group meets the First Friday’s of every month at Inner Path,
the cost is $15
See additional info at www.myinnerpath.com. Come early as seating is limited.
