Total Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse! | |

Dear John Infinite blessings to you and yours! Starting with this newsletter, I'll be giving you lots more videos! For the first time, my feature post, "Challenging Energy: Release or Integrate?” is moving images instead of words. I was also inspired to make my new "Ask the AstroShaman" feature a video instead of writing everything out. It seems to me everybody wins with videos. Since I write and edit so meticulously, it's much faster for me to quickly record and upload raw video. I've also noticed that I give a lot more information in the videos than in a written post, so you'll benefit from the extra insights. Writing is a formal process for me, while making a video is more like chatting with a friend. I'll be uploading the videos as they are – no editing – and hope you enjoy the spontaneous flow and informality of this format. Please feel free to reply with your feedback! You can save $100 if you register for the 2019 Wildman Gathering by this Monday, and I'm including a final reminder about my eclipse special. I'm excited to be reintroducing a long-lost podcast feature: the Interactive Listener Consultation -- and my 2019 forecast video continues to attract new viewers! In the forecast, 2019’s most powerful lunation, a Leo Blood Moon Total Lunar Eclipse incorporating three potent aspect patterns, highlights the second half of January. We also have the first exact occurrence of one of the year’s most important aspects: a 15-month Saturn-Neptune sextile brimming over with awesome possibilities. There’s also much more, including a rare Quadruple Yod aspect pattern! Details below. Enjoy this AstroShaman News! | |
Challenging Energy: Release or Integrate? Video I’ve recently started to change a long-standing pattern in my spiritual/shamanic work. Rather than routinely clear, flush or eliminate challenging energy, I’m increasingly starting to integrate it! I share my reflections and experiences on the challenges and benefits of this approach in this seven-minute video. | |
"Ask the AstroShaman" Video #1: Why I Use the Asteroid Goddesses; the Upside of a "Challenged" Venus Welcome to the new “Ask the AstroShaman” video series! In this premiere 27-minute episode, I explain why I use the four asteroid goddesses in my astrological interpretations. The other question is from a woman who’s concerned about her Venus for two reasons: it’s retrograde and in Scorpio. I respond by highlighting all the positive potentials of her natal Venus, eventually expanding to include all the wonderful ways this “challenged” Venus can express in her natal chart.

I also invite you to “Ask the AstroShaman”! I welcome your questions about astrology, shamanism, spirituality and more. If I can answer your question in a way that’s helpful and interesting to my viewers, I’ll be delighted to address it in one of these videos.

Two powerful eclipses happen in January! The following only summarizes the most important eclipse effects. But in a nutshell … Capricorn Solar Eclipse A Capricorn Solar Eclipse lined up on January 5 (15°25′ Capricorn). This Partial Solar Eclipse powerfully energizes accomplishment, maturity, good time management, efficient planning and implementation. One of this eclipse’s major aspects is a Saturn-Neptune sextile, which empowers Law of Attraction manifestation and embodied awakening. The Sun and Moon also join forces with the no-nonsense conjunction of Saturn and Pluto. This potent duo excels in catalyzing shadow work. If used skillfully, they offer extraordinary opportunities for accelerated personal growth! | |
