Numerology/Astrology for 10/8/15
October 8th is the number 8. The number 8 is all about grief
and loss and yesterday I found out that my teacher and friend Steve Carter was
murdered in Marin while walking on a hike. His wife Lokita had just been
diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer and had come back from Costa Rica (where
they had retired) to get treatment. I am in shock and grieving about the
senseless loss of such a wonderful loving, kind, man for no particular reason.
I will speak about it more below. Venus enters Virgo today, after spending a
longer time than usual in the sign of Leo, and will transit the sign until
November 8. Venus entered Virgo in July, but never made it past the first
degree of the sign before retrograding and moving back into Leo. This is a time
when we express our love through practical means and gestures--running errands,
doing detail work, or just "being there" for others. Virgo is an
Earth sign, which is sensual but also quite practical. We could easily feel
guilty if we are too self-indulgent during this cycle. We can be a little shy
and prone to worry. We pick up on many different cues, attempting to analyze
every detail of others' reactions and responses. In the process, we can miss
out on the bigger and perhaps more meaningful cues. As well, Virgo is a sign
that can live very much in the mind in the middle of an experience, failing to
enjoy the moment. Self-consciousness can get in the way of enjoyment. Rendering
services to others can fill a need, and can be an expression of love. What we
decide to buy and the types of entertainment we enjoy during this cycle is
ruled by whether or not things make sense. The Moon continues its transit of
Leo until 3:51 PM, when it enters Virgo, and then aligns with Venus.

Steve and Lokita Carter had been teachers in the Skydancing
Tantra Lineage which myself and my husband had participated in workshops with
them for years. Steve was a kind and gentle spirited man with a heart that
would love and touch all. Lokita had worked with Osho in the old days and
together they were an amazing team of compassionate truth and love. I am deeply
shocked and saddened by the senseless murder of Steve who was totally devoted
to his wonderful wife Lokita with such grace and commitment. They taught how
they lived, authentically and with such honestly about love, passion, life, and
conflict. I will never forget will forget getting to witness them resolving a
conflict in a class. I will never forget the power and passion of Lokita and
how gracefully Steve allowed the full flow of emotions from his wife to flow
and listened with full presence never collapsing and never loosing touch with
his masculine. And him admitting at the end of her argument that she was right
and that they would do what she wanted. It takes a powerful man to admit when
he is wrong in front of a large group of people. It takes great love for a man
to feel the full force of feminine rage hit him and not loose his center and
masculine core. Steve was a remarkable man of great love and I am sure his is
on the other side watching with such tenderness with all the love and
appreciation coming his way. May I be so heart centered in this lifetime. And may
his memory serve as an inspiration to others for eternity. Rest in peace Steve.
I will see you in another time and place.

Earth grieves the loss of each beautiful soul, and immediately replaces it with another. You have already become the parts of Steve that you love by recognizing them.
