Pause this month to reconsider your course
of action as well as decisions you have made. Are your plans
in alignment with higher principles, or has willfulness prevailed?
Be willing to take a dispassionate view of your life and allow
the still, small voice within to speak without ego getting defensive.
This is a wonderful time for retreat and for being in nature
or engaging in specialized study. Much good emerges when you
deepen your spiritual connection, so give yourself this precious
gift of You to you!

Focus on managing your time so that you gain
maximum momentum. Organize your work and take care of things
that require attention, because there may be opportunities that
call for being prepared. You can receive recognition for past
efforts, a promotion, or on the other hand be called upon to
manage another's finances or handle estate issues. The key to
June is to recognize where you flow with life's requirements,
and where you avoid or resist them. Perfection is not required,
but being conscious, handling yourself with maturity, and good
stewardship is.

Emotions may be ignited as this month brings
a necessity to review your relationships, attitudes, and anything
that you have outgrown. You can release a burden or graduate
from one level of life experience to another. The key to success
this month is to take every issue as an opportunity for greater
understanding, and to find your way to gratitude so that you
look for the good in all... appreciating the rose instead
of dwelling on the thorns. Act with compassion and see the bigger
view. As you do, life will provide moments that make everything
worthwhile.

Take opportunities that come your way to make
new connections and to bring your voice forward. This is a month
for planting. What you focus on will grow, so make sure you are
imagining the good that you want, and overcome tendencies to dwell
on what is not working. Be open to possibilities, knowing that
as you extend your reach, something will shift. It may not be
fully apparent this month, but this is the time to plant the good
seeds for your future. Venture forth with optimism as doors open
based on your efforts!

In this year of change, June may be a pivotal
point regarding choices. There may be sudden shifts of information
that set you on a different course of action. The requirement
to be more discerning relates to relationships, boundaries, and
the quality of all interactions. Choose people, food, and thinking
patterns that nourish and uplift you, and let go of everything
that drags you down. During this time you can gain flashes of
insight that need to be captured before you forget them, and be
sure to pay attention to your intuition as there may be some great
clues regarding upcoming possibilities! |

Laughter, playfulness, and joy are part of a
child's stock in hand. Regardless of your age, it's
time to retrieve these gifts and bring the inner child to the
fore. Choose a merry band of friends, find things that bring you
together in a positive manner, and express yourself creatively
whenever possible. There may be emotional issues related to children
or to you as the child. Focus on letting people be who they are
and give yourself that same permission. Whenever possible, choose
to celebrate life. Leave the cranky, critical characters alone
for this month and choose the encouraging ones who let you be
a star! |

Illusions may be popped as you confront something
that is not what you thought it was, or as you are faced with
a need to stretch beyond your comfort zone. The opportunity this
month is to overcome limitations through willingness to look clearly
and dispassionately at issues confronting you. Remember, the same
old same old leads to more of the same. Risk is involved in growth
and renewal, but you need an infusion of life giving substance
to expand horizons and build something of lasting value. Breaking
out of complacency requires effort and stamina. You have it...
so spread your wings and be amazed at the view you will gain from
a new perspective! |
|

Movement and activity abound, albeit mental or
physical. People, ideas, information - all expanding your horizons.
So many possibilities require discernment and discretion -
not easy under this restless and dynamic influence. Focus your
energy on several coordinated projects where you can leverage
effort for a more powerful outcome, and avoid the temptation to
flit from one thing to another without a goal or plan. By month's
end you will either feel elated at how much you have achieved,
or frustrated at lack of results because you dabbled in too many
different things. |

Family, health, and service now take center stage
in this year of completion. Check your motives in all acts of
giving. Make sure you are extending yourself with a loving, compassionate
heart rather than being resentful for "having to do" something.
Life has a great deal to offer you and responds to loving vibes.
As you become clear about what is appropriate for you and what
is not, you can alter situations with dignity, even when you need
to let something or someone go. It isn't about either/or, it is
about what works best for all concerned so that there are no martyrs
and no victims. Attitudes hold the key to good health, so feed
only that which is beneficial and uplifting!

WHAT ARE YOUR GIFTS IN THE YEAR
2007?
|
|
1 |
The opportunities are for a renewed sense of
individuality and the need to step out of the familiar way of
going about life. Leadership, courage, stamina, and all the things
that define the sculpting process of the diamond are underway.
This is a seed planting year as you attempt things. Not all will
come to fruition, but the effort is important. Grappling with
purely selfish wants and transmuting them into a larger vision
or purpose that enhances the lives of all concerned brings about
the noble qualities that define a great leader. Calling on unique
capabilities and a fresh vantage point are part of the requirement
this year. Align your will with higher guidance, and your endeavors
will be something you can be proud of by year’s end.

This year calls upon you to overcome all that
keeps you from soul expression. Choices are very important. Choose
that which uplifts, nourishes, honors, and benefits you and life.
Release all mental constructs that pull you down. Avoid food and
stimulants that add no benefit to the wellbeing of your body.
Choose only partnerships that are mutually respectful, and know
that you have Divine partnership with inner guidance that is always
available as you reach within for assistance. An inner light illumines
your path, and can become a light to others when you attune to
your gifts and share them with the world. The time is now. The
requirement is discernment, and your contribution can bring needed
insights to a world in the dark. |

You are a child of the universe. Your sense of
wonder and self-expression are important, and throughout this
year you will have opportunities to expand your gifts and to bring
your voice forward in creative venues that appreciate what you
have to offer. While a stage is set and waiting for you, there
may also be emotional pulls that cause you to sacrifice the opportunities
because of someone else’s issues. Life asks you to be more
detached. In looking at the universal year, #9, remember that
everyone is being asked to release attachment to limitation, especially
in relation to the number of the year in which you find yourself.
Who and what contributes to joy in your life? Who or what is critical
and restrictive to your higher calling? You can love others and
have compassion for them without being devoured by their inadequacy.
What is your bigger calling in life, and where are you answering
it, or deferring because someone else is blocking the way?
|

Look at every area in life that is built on a
foundation. Where are your building blocks strong, and where are
they wobbly? Where do you have a healthy sense of self-esteem,
and where are you on shaky ground? Do you believe in yourself
and your abilities - in your capacity to take on something that
may seem beyond your present capacity, and your willingness to
risk to the unknown? Throughout the year, you have opportunities
to build or re-build. You can construct a strong and safe environment,
or you can be caught in a fear-based trap that causes feelings
of imprisonment. Gather the materials for establishing yourself
in a practical manner. Push beyond the perceptual boundaries that
limit you, and you may find yourself transforming from the caterpillar
into the butterfly. It’s your choice, and challenge. Risk
to the call of your higher possibilities, and fly beyond all roadblocks
from the past. |
|
5 |
Throughout 2007, be ready and willing to adapt
to new criteria, shifting roles, expanding horizons, and change.
Flexibility is required, as well as good management of your time
and energy. You may react to restriction like a hormone driven
teenager, so it is important to allow your higher guidance to
act as the steadying influence when you are ready to react without
thinking. Pause. Consider. Assess. Be discerning. Then take action.
Many things can be accomplished when you direct the focus of your
exuberance. Too much information can put you on systems overload,
however, and then you may become hyper critical of others or yourself.
This can be a very revitalizing year in your life, with openings
to greater good. It will require that you be aware of how much
time you actually have to spend, and how much money. Reach for
your dreams. Strategize your moves, and act with boldness. This
is your life… so enjoy! |

2007 focuses on all things related to family,
health, and service. You have opportunity after opportunity to
view your reaction to what is asked of you. Do you give with a
loving heart, or through a sense of obligation and duty? Are you
resentful for what is placed on your shoulders, or is it a joy
to give to others and see their reaction? Do you feel abused and
put upon, or loved and cared for? These are things to assess.
Expectations can create barriers to loving communication, so if
you expect too much of others, or feel their expectations of you
as a burden, create workable boundaries that define what you will
and will not do before it becomes a martyrdom issue. Loving relationships
can become more meaningful now, or go through crisis. Healing
comes through practicing love and forgiveness – not just
towards others, but towards yourself as well. |

This is an important year for you. Look at your
assumptions about life and about yourself, and be willing to really
examine what is true for you and what has been assumed based on
what you were told you are, or how to think. You have a grace
given opportunity to dissolve all elements that defeat the real
you. By strengthening your link in spirit to the Divine, you may
come to know yourself in a way you have not previously realized
was possible. Special areas of interest, deep insights into life
or relationships, willingness to let what doesn’t work drop
away – all are avenues to a fuller expression of your gifts
and abilities. This is your time to do the spiritual work that
will make your life a symphony. Follow the sound of your higher
calling, and you will always be thankful you did. |
|
8 |
This is a powerful year of contrasts. You are
able to see the light and shadow, to experience the ups and downs,
and feel the effect of past actions that lead to harmony, harvest
and blessing, or make you feel you are called upon to pay the
bills that are now past due. There is no judgment in this –
but there is a requirement to take care of each thing presented
as it comes up for action. The year calls for maturity, good management,
and organization. It shows you where you have paid too much attention
to one area of life at the expense of others that now need to
be cared for. It provides powerful assistance and responses from
others based on your efforts, so do your very best this year.
There is responsibility, but there is also help. Open your arms
to dance with life, and find the balance that makes your journey
a poised performance. |

You are completing a nine-year cycle of life.
Therefore, there is much to review. What is important to carry
with you into the future, and what needs to be released? What
have you accomplished in this past nine years? What has blocked
you, and where have you overcome limitations? Are there relationships
that need healing or releasing? Are there attitudes that no longer
serve you? As you can look upon everything presented with a sense
of gratitude and appreciation for the gift embedded in it, you
open yourself to receive the grace and provisions of Divine guidance.
When you forget to be grateful, and fall into the trap of pettiness
and small thinking, you feel the isolation of tumbling from a
mountaintop of clear vistas that includes all life. Alienation
can only be overcome through opening the heart, inviting Spirit
to be the Source of supply, and moving into compassion, forgiveness,
and love. It may sound difficult, but once you open that channel
of receptivity, all things are possible!
