Mindfulness involves cultivating awareness of our experiences, internal and external, without reacting. We become the observer of life’s happenings. We do not benefit from becoming upset, anxious, or depressed when things do not go our way. So we simply notice what is happening as though looking down from above.

In the context of psychological development and interpersonal relationships, projection and differentiation play central roles. A couple once came to me for an astrological consultation. They wanted to know, “Is this the person for me? What is our compatibility?” Both were in their mid-to-late 30s, and each had been married before.

To Progress is to move forward. More specifically and in this instance, it means to go forward in time and space in order to see, feel and experience future time and the future you. In doing so, you can expect to gain insight and clarity as well as a greater awareness of how life, you and your own unique creative processes work. Progression is a finely tuned tool to help us understand ourselves and the creative process, indeed, to help us understand how and why we create the lives that we do…

Let’s face it, it can be hard sometimes to make passion a priority in your day-to-day life.
This may seem unthinkable at the start of a relationship whilst you’re in that all-consuming, can’t-keep-your-hands-off-each-other stage. As time goes on, this is naturally replaced with something calmer and less intense (good thing too, otherwise we’d never get any work done!).

Maybe in your complex life experiences, you had to finally take the steps to love and take care of yourself. You found the courage to walk away from psychological abuse after person number three was emotionally badgering you, using you financially or maintaining another relationship behind your back. You may have even felt like a victim in these situations when they were over.

The planet/archetype Venus in our birth chart symbolically describes our relationships — the desire to connect, to relate, to express and receive love and affection. It is also going to show what we find beautiful, what we value and what gives us pleasure. No two of us are exactly alike so a big part of being true to ourselves is to be able to love and value who we really are.

Drumming, an ancient art form rooted in many cultures around the world, is also a therapeutic tool with profound effects on the human psyche. This rhythmic practice transcends mere musical performance, tapping into deeper psychological and physiological realms. 

Dreams are universal.  Most human beings are familiar with the crazy nighttime phenomena, where anything can happen and probably will, where impossible narratives unfold with a psychedelic complexity.  But there are other kinds of dreams, for in the sleep state our thinking minds are also sleeping. 

Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the presence of love.
— J. Pittman McGehee, D.D.
The affect that others have on us is purposeful. The unconscious will actually facilitate this to happen by producing quarrels eventually. Don’t feel like a victim when this phase of a relationship begins. The unconscious of both people will set it up so that they can differentiate i.e., see who each other actually is. In other words, recognize differences.

For a long time, most people believed that cats originated from Egypt 4,000 years ago. However, archaeologists have found evidence that contradicts this notion. They have discovered fossils and DNA evidence of humans buried with their feline friends dating back to 12,000 years ago.

The Pisces Age is over. Sacrificing, suffering in silence and being martyrs in order to stay in a relationship will not work anymore. The Aquarian Age goal for relating, as I see it, is to become best friends. First, find out if that person is willing to be in a reciprocal relationship. That means no one is doing all the giving or receiving.

The sign of Pisces is the 12th sign of the zodiac (February 19  through March 20). Developmentally from about eighty years old to the end of life, Pisceans are considered to be the sign that is the most compassionate and gentle of all the signs. They have an innate capacity for becoming selfless and nonjudgmental. Often sacrificing for others, they go about expressing genuine concern for the suffering they see in the world.
