AHH, THE LUSTY MONTH OF MAY!

It's arrived again. The official start of the "light half" of the year. Light and warmth return to the Earth, bringing with them all manner of silliness on the part of the animal kingdom. That includes us, by the way. This is the time of year when staid old bulls suddenly frolic in the pasture, kick up their heels and abandon their manners.

What will this Summer bring, I wonder? Will we bring light to our neighbors? Will we abandon our notions of how we're "supposed" to behave, and try being (lovingly) authentic? Or will we lose our heads entirely and crash into the barn wall...

There's a balance to be struck, to be sure. So, while we're frolicking in the sun, let's set ourselves a path to follow. Check out the new stuff in this month's issue... The excerpt from Dawna Markova's book Spot Of Grace: Remarkable Stories Of How You DO Make A Difference comes to mind. So does Marlene Buffa's feature, Exercise For the Spirit, and our new series based on Gina Mazza Hillier's book, Everything Matters, Nothing Matters: For Women Who Dare To Live With Exquisite Calm, Euphoric Creativity and Divine Clarity. There's lots of practical counsel and encouragement to be had for the reading.

I don't know what's coming this year... but it feels big. It feels rather like we're sitting on a roller coaster, at the top of the hill, waiting... to be shot forth into breathless adventure. The twists and turns will be challenging, of course. But, if we can just keep our sense of humor, our sense of fun and balance and openness... it will be an amazing ride.

I'm IN! Won't you join me?

Blessings of Beltane,
Vara

FINDING TRUE FREEDOM

WHO PUTS YOU "OVER THE MOON?"

HEALING:
THE SPHERE

By ROSS BISHOP

THE INVITATION
By SARAH INCE

We clearly understand the need for practice and reaching beyond our current state of well-being when it comes to mental and physical inertia. But when our spiritual life - that less tangible, invisible, subjective and mystical part of ourselves - suffers from stagnation or neglect...

All humans dream of freedom; you pray for freedom and will do anything to give yourself a taste of personal freedom and some times at any cost to yourself or another. But what does true freedom look and feel like? Many believe that they would be free if only they had every monetary thing they desire in the world. Some believe that freedom comes with certain types of relationships...
more

People ask me all the time, "What is the best sign for me as far as a romantic partner?" Well, Sun-Sign compatibility is only a very small part of the story when you are looking at relationships. The Sun Sign (as well as the Ascendant, the "other half" of the personality) describes very basic personality traits... When it comes to romance and falling in love, certain other planets are actually more important than Sun Signs when it comes to determining whether or not two individuals can live "happily ever after"...
more

You live in an energy sphere. You cannot see it, you won't even notice that it is there. It is different from your aura or the energy of your chakras. This sphere has one purpose: to create separation between you and the hurts and slights of the world. It monitors, edits, filters, distorts and otherwise manipulates everything that comes in and goes out. This is done to minimize conflicts...
more

Can you imagine being given an invitation to the best offering of your life - an invitation to live heaven on earth? This invitation is being given to those who wish to accept unity and all this entails. A direct invitation from God and your higher self is being offered to you - to live a life of heaven on earth...

BEACONS OF LIGHT
BY THE GROUP,
AS CHANNELED BY STEVE ROTHER

May '08: Spectrum Viewing, Part 1

You have a choice as to how you experience what lies ahead. There is no right or wrong choice. As you move into this higher vibrational level, you will realize that the concepts of right or wrong do not exist in the same way you thought they did. There are no black and white rules. Instead, there are only choices and you have lots of opportunities to work with. You have been asking. "How do I walk forward with my eyes open? How do I work in this area to see what is taking place on this planet?"."


USING A PENDULUM:
The Ancient Art Of Dowsing

BY AMY ZERNER AND MONTY FARBER

Most people know what a pendulum is - it's a weight, light or heavy, hanging at the bottom of a rope or chain, like the weights you can see hanging on the ends of the chains in genuine grandfather clocks - but fewer people know what is meant by using a pendulum...


PLANET UPDATE, May '08
BY ATHENE RAEFIEL

The call went out many years ago for the Earth and its inhabitants to raise its consciousness to avoid devastation throughout this very intense cycle of change. The Earth and the Solar system responded but unfortunately enough humans did not...


LIFTING YOUR VEIL, May '08:
Unity - The Frequency Of Universal Love

BY LISA RENEE

Humanity is now standing at another specific entry point that gives a "window of opportunity" to experience quantum leaps of accelerated consciousness. The current choices we make are critical about the future direction, the evolutionary direction of our species. We have entered a New Chapter...


LIGHT BEHIND BARS:
Soul Blossoming, May '08

BY TOM BROWN

Looking for and enjoying beauty is a way to nourish the soul. It is the deepest dream of the human soul to be in the intimacy of Divine Beauty. Even in the drab environment of this prison yard from which I write, inmates are continually trying to create drawings and objects...




HOW TO BE PRESENT
BY SUSANNA HARGREAVES

Why is it so hard to be present? No, I'm not talking about just being there. I'm talking about being aware of your existence and the experience of it. I try to savor moments and take time to relish in happiness and contentment. I can hear my father's jovial voice exclaim, "It is great to be alive." Yes, indeed and I believe it is important to reflect, so you can live your life more deeply...


PORTRAITS THAT GO BUMP
BY CAROLE OBLEY

One night while watching White Noise, a movie about a man who receives spirit communication through his TV, Ginny heard a loud crash in her hallway. When she ran to investigate, she discovered that a painting of herself that had hung for years undisturbed above the staircase had inexplicably fallen and come out of its frame. Shaken by the experience, Ginny called me - a professional psychic medium - to see if I could provide insight...




NUMBERS BY DESIGN:
Numerology, May '08

BY KATHLEEN JACOBY

PLANETARY CYCLES:
Astrology, May '08

BY CAROLA EASTWOOD

The Sun completed its cycle through Aries, entering Taurus, the sign of the bull, on April 19. A powerful, yet receptive earth sign, Taurus brings the grounded quality needed to contain and direct the fiery energy that Aries releases at the Spring Equinox. Aries initiates new impulses, ideas and inspiration leaving Taurus to provide the knowledge and resources to put the new ideas into practical application. Venus ruled Taurus is creative and nurturing. If you were born with the sun, moon, or rising sign in Taurus...

FOR WOMEN WHO DARE TO LIVE - Part 1 - Intention

BY GINA MAZZA HILLIER

Life can be like this, a gift re-presented each dawn with great flourish. It can be voluptuous, no matter what is occurring around us. Indeed, our moment-to-moment existence can be ecstasy, even when things happen that really suck big time. How is this possible? Because, truth be told, we don't just exist, we are conscious beings. As such, we are free to choose how to be...


New Series!
READING THE DEEPER MIND - Part 1 - The Story Of Your Life

BY ALLAN G. HUNTER

When looking for the deep story of your life - when looking for the shape that can give coherence to your experiences - it's always a good idea to have a sense of what the overall sweep of life can be. It's not just a question of being born, working, and growing old. Neither is it a case of where we end up physically. It's a question of what we come to understand within that span of time...


SEASONS OF THE SOUL:
Artificial Barriers

BY KATHLEEN JACOBY

I was driving on the freeway and noted the large dividing walls that have been built in recent years between the freeway and the frontage road paralleling it. The space between both is minimal, and the walls are put up for noise reduction and a sense of separation. It dawned on me as I passed one of those barriers that the perception it gave was one of privacy...


EARTHTALK:
Learning to Live Green

BY THE EDITORS OF E/THE ENVIRONMENTAL MAGAZINE

EarthTalk covers all the key and emerging environmental issues - from recycling to climate change, and from the "global village" to our own backyards. Also providing contact information at the end of each column, you are invited to research topics further if you wish. Check out the questions addressed in our MAY article...


EASY PEASY PALMISTRY:
Your Health In Your Hands

BY JOHNNY FINCHAM

Palmistry isn't only about character analysis or fortune telling, it's a powerful tool in preventing illness too. Lots of underlying health conditions show on the palm, months before they manifest as an actual health problem. Always consult your physician and get a professional opinion about any suspected condition...


SPIRIT TALES:
Why Isn't This Manifesting Stuff Working?

BY DANA MRKICH

So, you have recently found out that life is like a movie script that you are writing moment by moment, in which you can design for yourself an abundance-creating, soulmate-attracting, self-realizing existence. You've watched The Secret and enthusiastically pinned a cheque to yourself on the ceiling, and stuck a vision board on your bedroom wall. However, here you are months down the track completely at your wit's end...




SPOT OF GRACE: Remarkable Stories Of How You DO Make a Difference!
BY DAWNA MARKOVA, PhD.

My grandmother began to stroke my forehead very slowly, the signal that a story was on its way. Her stories always made a silken tent for the two of us to crawl into. "Imagine, my darling, that back in the very beginning of everything, there was an immense crystal bowl floating in the dark velvet sky. Imagine it was glowing because it was made of light." I held my breath until she continued...


STORYCATCHER: Making Sense Of Our Lives Through the Power and Practice Of Story (Part 2 of 2)
BY CHRISTINA BALDWIN

So, here I am, not an anthropologist but an English major with twenty books on brain theory and linguistics piled under my desk, trying to distill a vast body of scientific inquiry and relate it to my interest in story. The point that fascinates me from my foraging is that human beings are biologically wired for verbal activity: we have to tell stories! And it seems obvious that any skill embedded this thoroughly into the biological structure of our brains deserves attention...




META-PHYSICIAN ON CALL:
Is Revenge Bad Karma?

BY STEVEN HODES, M.D.

A good friend is writing a book about revenge and has asked for my comments regarding this topic. It certainly makes me consider the metaphysical ramifications of this rather powerful emotion. At first glance it seems quite reasonable to feel the desire to avenge a perceived wrong doing. This is, after all, the basis for the notion of justice...


SPIRITUALLY INTELLIGENT LEADERSHIP, Part 6: Creating Structure In Groups
BY WILLIAM DIEDRICH

Today's great leader is a servant. In the past, we served the leader. The great leader of today serves those he leads. You serve by creating a structure for success. When we speak of structure we are not talking about the organizational chart. Structure in this sense is the invisible framework of the organization that influences behavior...


HEAVENLETTERS™: May '08
BY GLORIA WENDROFF

I know the heartbreaks that sometimes alight on you when you least expect them. Expected or not, they hurt. But even when you feel your heart is breaking, you do know that troubles melt away, and that, relatively speaking, your worst trouble is always the present one. Even in the moment of heartache, you know that your seeming cause isn't really all that bad. You've had as bad or worse, and you know that there are many in the world who would be glad to have your troubles...


FROM THE HEART: Acts Of God
BY ALAN COHEN

If you read the small print on contracts, no one is liable for "Acts of God." "Acts of God" are disasters beyond human control, like storms, floods, lightning, and (some would argue) protracted visits from uninvited relatives. I find it fascinating that in such contracts God takes the rap for everything that goes wrong...
