Welcome to the Season of Eclipses April/May 2013

Here we go into the Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio tomorrow April 25, 2013. This particular one will mostly affect the Scorpios, Leos, Aquarius's, Taurus's and Cancers. Lunar Eclipses want us to take a look backwards and notice if you are where you want to be. If things seem a bit off then this eclipse will make them worse. If you need to follow through with something then you better get on it and make sure it is finished. This particular lunar eclipse has a very complex emotional tone because of combined astrological patterns but this is just the beginning of a run of eclipses. 

We have the April 25 lunar eclipse, then the solar eclipse on May 9, then another lunar eclipse on May 25. So everyone take a breath and prepare for movement in many forms. May 4th is a touchy day as we hit a particular sensitive eclipse nerve so be kind and considerate to others and make an extra effort that day.

These aspects make us notice that we are actually mourning many types of losses. Letting go and healing the issues that these patterns bring up can take a while so do not judge yourself or others for the next month. What we are trying to create is movement with discipline but what tends to happen is that we want to push against issues and the past patterns that have created bitterness and upset. 

Ask yourself the question, "What would it take for you to step beyond the story you are telling yourself so you feel better?" In the end it does not really matter, it only matters that you are free, open, at peace, and loving to those you connect with in your life. 

We are being asked to go deeper and look at the places that no longer serve us. Notice how much energy you are using to maintain the position of being right. In the long run it is a waste of energy and time. We all would be better off to forgive and to realize that not getting what we want is often the correct path for us and that the divine knew much better than us what we needed and wanted. 

Trust is the key to healing. Trust that the circumstances are perfect for your life's purpose. Let others go and allow them to have their own karmas and patterns. You cannot walk in another's shoes and they cannot completely understand your path either. So now it is time to just let it go. Allow these eclipses to move you out of longing for what you think you deserve and begin to notice what you have and what you need emotionally to be happy. Things, people, and circumstances do not alone make you happy. You choose to be happy regardless of externals or how other people choose to see us. 

But nothing will change if you hold others telepathically in a place where they feel bad or less than. Someone needs to start the process and break the dysfunctional cycle. Let it be you. Let your conscious choice begin to allow the truth to surface. The truth that we are all human, we all make mistakes (that are not really mistakes at all), and that our hurt and anger is about not feeling loved or appreciated by those that we love. 

It is time to pay it forward. Open your heart and give to someone who is in need and love those from the past that have wronged you. Then you will be free and you free them to also begin to heal and open.
