November 2009 Forecast

[not MJ related at all]

I know some people read the one I posted on September
but I really think this is interesting,
I know this WILL help some of you.
If you have any questions, let me know.

The main theme for November is De-stabilization.
Sub-themes are:
• Dissolving old foundations
• Accessing the void
• Re-defining essentials
• Creativity and resourcefulness as security
• New platforms of stability
The influences of this month encourage major de-stabilization of many
of the known structures we have all come to rely on. This includes all
the ways we have organized our perceptions and emotional responses to
the physical world. De-stabilization is seen here as a positive
influence as it accelerates movement where progress is necessary. In
the process, great energy and power are released.
We have talked before about this time of the feminine coming into
power. The feminine has two aspects; the creative and the destructive.
What we are dealing with this month is the destructive side of the
feminine which, in its positive expression, can be helpful in
destroying the cancers of our attachments and old patterns exemplified
by outdated patriarchal structures of the modern western world. Keep in
mind that the feminine is a fluid, creative and powerful energy that
tends to break through any rigidity that opposes it. While Martyrdom is
still a constant thorn in our side, Stubbornness takes the lead this
month as the obstacle to be aware of.
Stubbornness stems from the fear of change and the resistance to
authority. In this case the authority is the influence of the feminine
and all the agents of change that are out of our intellectual and
emotional control. At this stage in the game, resistance is futile.
Things will happen whether you like it or not because it is what is
needed at this time. Remember that you are part of the collective and
it is the collective that is choosing how this shift in consciousness
is playing itself out. The only aspect that you can control is how you
deal with the de-stabilization. Will you be in shock and surprise like
a deer in headlights or will you accept it and harness the momentum of
the incredible movement of energy that it produces?
De-stabilization can manifest in many different ways. How it shows up
in your life will be determined largely by what your lessons may be,
what your lifestyle is, and how attached you are to how you think it
ought to be. When contemplating the unknown, if fear and dread arises
in you, you have work to do. The challenge will be in letting go of the
need to know so that you can approach the unknown as a child
anticipating a big surprise with excitement and wonder. This is a
looking forward approach rather than a backing away as a protective
measure. In order to fully participate in creating the future that you
want, you must face the unknown with curiosity, enthusiasm, and
excitement and keep a "don't know mind". These will fuel your
creativity and expand the potential of your possibilities.
There is a practical aspect to these times as well. The pragmatist pays
attention. Just because there is disintegration around you does not
mean you can stop maintaining the details of your physical life. You
still have to pay your bills and service your car and keep your
environment organized. You should still honor your agreements and show
up where you said you would. But in addition it is important at this
time to pay attention to signs from spirit; little odd things that come
to you; synchronicity and unusual events. Don't fall asleep but rather
stay awake, be watchful, attentive and proactive. These signs may be
little portals or openings for you to move into and explore. Use your
curiosity, ask "what if" and then go for it. Don't believe the news
feed of reality as it is being handed to you. Lose the mind and follow
your intuition instead.

Dissolving old foundations
Foundations are built on patterns of stability and anchored into
something that is believed to be long lasting in its stability.
Therefore it is always a shock and a surprise when a structure that is
perceived as stable breaks loose from its foundation because the
foundation has lost its integrity and power to support. Many mental,
physical and emotional structures, which we have come to rely on as
permanently stable, will be affected this month as their foundations
de-stabilize and begin to dissolve. Because this is primarily an
energetic process that will happen from the inside, you may not be
fully aware of the physical manifestations for some time. Therefore it
is important that you pay attention to signs of the little changes and
the smaller movements of energy. Rather than resisting and trying to
reinforce what is dissolving, help it along by being proactive in your
attitude. The best thing you can do in the face of this dissolving is
to allow it with gratitude and willingness. Embrace the unknown behind
it with the confidence and trust that things will turn out just fine in
the end.
One of the most powerful dissolving agents is water. As the earth
supports this process we may see events that involve water in some way.
This could occur with anything from tsunamis due to earthquakes, dams
breaking, flooding, mudslides, and storms at sea or on land. Personally
and in your own environment watch for water related issues in your home
and immediate environment. The fluids of the body may also be affected
and it would be a good idea to drink more water. On another personal
level, your own foundations of rational thinking, plans for your future
and the context in which you see yourself mentally, emotionally and
physically may also go through de-stabilization. You may need to allow
these foundations to dissolve and to redefine your reference points. If
you do experience disintegration and unraveling, allow it and focus
instead of something that happens to be stable in your life. Your inner
life is something you alone have power over and can provide you with
stability during these times.

Accessing the void
The void is the place where form does not yet exist. It is the
experience of nothing. It is the collapse of particles that have taken
some kind of physical form back into the quantum field and the vast
soup of infinite potential. It is also a very frightening place to be.
Most people who have been heavily imprinted to identify with
productivity, action and seeing physical results as their measure of
success, resist the void at all costs. It feels like depression,
failure, and a black hole. The experience there feels unmotivated and
there is nothing for the intellectual center to grasp. The void is the
feminine and the most fertile soil in which to plant new seeds. The
void is an extremely important place to be comfortable in at this time.
To get to the void one must let go completely of all attachments to
physical forms and foundations especially to forms created from an old
paradigm, and to sit in meditation, silence and peace. Great trust in
the natural cycle is helpful in becoming comfortable in this space. Set
some time for yourself on a daily basis to be in the void either
through meditation or simply being. As you witness de-stabilization and
the dissolving of old forms, acknowledge the movement into the void.

Re-defining essentials
What is essential? This month much of what we thought was truly
essential for our survival, quality of life, personal success and
happiness will be re-defined. Non-essential thoughts, habits, stuff,
energy leaks, drama, reactions and anything that you inherited that was
not specifically chosen by you should be scrutinized for its current
value in your life. You cannot afford a heavy backpack full of
non-essentials. You won't make it up the mountain. Take some time this
month to look at your life in terms of essentials vs. non-essentials
and continue to clear, clean, dissolve and let go of what no longer can
support you in the future.
The non-essentials have more to do with your beliefs, attitudes and
attachments than they have to do with your physical environment unless
you truly are a slave to your physical stuff. Things like worry,
obsession, regret, too much attachment to needing to know, judgment of
self and others, addiction to drama are all non-essentials that should
allowed to dissolve so their energy can be used for more productive and
creative intentions. Your essentials should be all of those powerful
aspects of yourself that no one can take away from you: your spiritual
practices and inner life, your service, your imagination, your talents,
your contribution, your essence, your positive outlook and attitude,
and your creativity. Establishing a stronger relationship with these
elements will serve as the basis for new platforms of stability.

Creativity and resourcefulness as security
It's time to wake up the curiosity and imagination and get creative,
inspired and resourceful. We are moving into a time where access to the
quantum field is more tangible than ever and problem solving should
come from a place completely disconnected from past experiences. We are
entering a new era where the imagination is key to progress. As a
collective we must move away out of the position of simply accepting
what we are told and into a position of proactive questioning that
stretches the imagination and opens creativity. We need to ask more of
"why not" and "what if". We need to hold the position that there are an
infinite number of solutions ready to be created as we stretch the
envelope of what has been done before.
These are very exciting times and if you can get out of the fear and
resistance to the de-stabilization and see it more as an opportunity
for increasing creativity, you will have way more energy and enthusiasm
to put towards new possibilities.

New platforms of stability
The new platforms of stability have to be built from inside. They begin
with trust and confidence and the belief in your own resourcefulness
and creativity. Even if you have been led to believe that most things
you have in your life are there because you followed someone else's
direction or studied the right thing, you need to acknowledge and
really get that you created every bit of your life the way it is. There
is power in accepting the responsibility for your creation. In
acknowledging your power to create, you are anchoring a belief in your
ability to create again and again and again. So in the face of the
destructive feminine that is dissolving known structures; where form is
becoming formless and mental constructs are melting into the void; know
that you can take all the creative material which is the result of this
process, and create something new again and again and again.
The new platforms of stability will be anchored by intentions fueled by
the emotions rather than the mind. The era of the intellectual rule is
over. The mind needs to be retrained as the useful tool in service to
the heart that it was always meant to be. Because of the resistance and
chaos common to this process, it is best to practice not believing
everything you think, hear, read or are told by others. Approach what
you take in and absorb with conscious awareness. Don't just go to sleep
and sit like a zombie in front of the television. Pay attention to the
absurdity with humor and question what you have always taken for
granted.

Your own trust in yourself and your abilities will be your strongest foundation for these times.
Personal Growth and Well-Being
The biggest opportunity for personal growth is in the letting go of all
the mental constructs and beliefs about how the world in which we live
operates, the mechanics of cause and effect, solution to problems, and
how things are created and manifested. Working proactively with the
quantum field can produce tremendous change and growth. The task will
be to allow it. This will require looking at your attachment to the way
things are and your willingness to let it go. Look at your addiction to
suffering and drama and be willing to contemplate life without it. Tell
the truth to yourself about how the false personality continues to be
fed by this addiction. Do you really want to change? What would you
have to gripe and gossip about if life were just the way you wanted it?
It is likely we will see a larger gap in the way people perceive the
world. Beliefs will be polarized and disagreements will stem from
Stubbornness. You can choose to be incredibly happy for no apparent
reason at ll. It is possible.

Relationships
Relationships will sort themselves out according to what is essential.
Connections with family and community members that have a common vision
will be very important. Because we are in a time of cooperative effort
and the lessons around cooperation are plentiful, there will be many
opportunities to see the positive effects from collaborative efforts.
Going about it alone, competitively just simply is not part of the new
paradigm and the sooner we learn this and start practicing it, the more
powerfully the quantum field will respond.
On a personal level, look at where you energy leaks may be in your
current relationships and remove all non-essential behaviors.
Relationships will be affected by the de-stabilization of the times and
you could experience a change in what you perceived to be reliable,
stable and available in some of your relationships. There may even be
shocks or surprises in this area. Rather than reacting negatively,
treat this as an opportunity to bring in something new that will serve
you even better.

Climate, Weather and the Environment
We are still dealing with water as an element as it supports the
dissolving of old structures. Practice creativity and resourcefulness
when required to be flexible around the weather. The weather patterns
will ratchet up a notch in intensity as they handle the emotional
turbulence of the times. Learn to be in humor and play as a child
would. The weather has the ability to disrupt plans, travel, meetings,
appointments, work, school etc. Disruptions in the schedule are a good
way to practice flexibility and to let go of your attachments to the
way you thought the time would be. The weather is something no one can
control. We could be surprised and even shocked at some of the events
that may happen this month including earth movement, heavy winds,
storms, flooding, and extremes in temperatures.

Business, Finance, Projects and Partnerships
A good month to be creative and resourceful, to cut the non-essentials,
to bring in people you like being around rather than looking only at
their qualifications, to ask for help, to brainstorm new solutions, to
throw away old ways of doing things, to ask "why not" and "what if", to
dream big, to not take personally the dissolving of an old structure,
to see change as opportunity, and to pay attention and stay awake.
Finances may be all over the map responding directly to your mental
constructs and your beliefs. Watch the Stubbornness as it tries to hold
onto old models of doing business. If it feels forced, joyless,
stressful and burdensome, it isn't right. Let it go. On the other hand,
there is nothing wrong with staying in a job or on a project that pays
well and takes no effort even if you feel it is not what you want to be
doing in 5 years. As long as you don't get stuck in it for year and
year, the current security it provides may be worthwhile.
All in al this month is good for contemplating what you may want to
imagine and create for yourself in collaboration with others.
Physical Health and Well-Being
One of the strongest collective belief systems and mental constructs is
the one about how the physical body works, reacts and heals; what it is
capable of, its longevity, the causes and effects of illness, exercise,
the mind, genetics etc. The area of physical health is one of the areas
that can go through the most shocking revolution as the belief systems
dissolve. The instability of the month may affect the inner ear, the
immune system, the nervous system and the glands. Watch for mysterious
symptoms and hard to diagnose conditions. Don't expect the current
Western medical models to have any answers. And don't believe
everything you are told. Your best bet is to work with your imagination
and to consider your body as a creative organism that can destroy the
unwanted and create better conditions. Let your body set the pace. If
it wants to rest, let it rest. If it wants to move, let it move. Be
expressive and pay attention.

Important dates
November 1-7: A radical time of turbulence and instability. You may
experience a non-specific anxiety that make it difficult for some to
get restful sleep. There may be global events also at this time that
point to de-stabilization and unrest. Go with the flow. Get into the
middle of the rapid and enjoy the ride. Resistance and fear will only
put you into the eddy where you will get stuck. Watch the tendency to
align yourself with someone else's drama as a way to ignore what is
knocking at your own door. Pay attention to all the signs from spirit
and let them be your guide.
November 2: Full Moon is at 12:14 PM MST (Mountain Standard Time)
Reflect on what is essential in your life. Focus on the opportunities
spirit has given you. If there is something new that has dropped into
your experience recently, acknowledge it as something you created
powerfully for yourself. In this way you focus on your ability to
create instead of what you may perceive as not happening.
November 8-14: A time of sifting through the rubble and the pieces of
the old foundations and structures. This is a highly creative time of
using the imagination and working with the quantum field. Be sure to
remind yourself to face surprise with enthusiasm and excitement as if
you were a child and believed that anything was possible. Anything is
possible at this time. Don't get bogged down in worry and regret and
obsessive thinking. Nothing is as it seems to the mind. Keep reminding
yourself that the dream is changing and that your intellectual center
is the last to know.
November 15-21: This time frame supports and opportunity for the higher
emotional center to express joy and wonder. The opposite is also
possible here. Intense fear, depression and emotional turmoil can be
the other experience at this time. How you manage this time will be up
to you. If you see opportunity instead of failure, you will take
advantage of the higher center. Remember that the feminine place of the
void is a highly creative place to be. Allow yourself to simply be
there.
November 16: New Moon is at 12:14 PM MST (Mountain Standard Time) A
time of working with the void, the feminine. Allow the destructive
quality of the dark feminine to help you dissolve something that really
need to be gone, something non-essential that your false personality
has been holding onto. If there is nothing, then simply spend some time
feeling the peace and emptiness in the nothingness of the void.
November 22-30: This is again a highly creative time. Pay attention and
focus on the signs. Push the envelope of what you have perceived as
possible. Stretch your imagination. Resist believing the status quo.
Ask the right questions, "why not" and "what if". Mostly just be with
what is from a place of trusting in the right order of things and in
your own ability and power to create. Spend time with others you like
to be around and keep cutting the non-essentials from your life.

Have a great month,

New Moon: November 16 at 12:14 PM MST
