Accessing blocks to success using your birth chart

I wanted to show you how to access your unconscious beliefs or negative false beliefs just by looking at your birth chart so I created this video. In it I show you two culprits and give examples using my own birth chart in the birth chart of Oprah Winfrey.

Negative unconscious beliefs are like the cancer to success. They can block your success in your business, in your relationships and every area of your life without you realizing it.

I show you how to access them quickly so that you can start challenging them and moving towards being successful.

Accurately accessing and naming the false core beliefs or unconscious beliefs is the first step.  Having a heart-to-heart with that part of yourself that believes it’s true is the next step.  One of my favourite resources with helpful exercises on this is The Self-Esteem Companion, Matthew McKay. Also, the New Feminine Power Telecourse also has a gold mine of a resource called Transformation of Identity Matrix, only accessible as part of their course.

Note: One of the false beliefs I identify for Oprah has to do with her spirituality. After I completed the video, I googled to see if I was on the right track… sure enough there have been recent attacks on her that may point to my suspicions… Huffington Post

 

June Horoscope 2013

Whew!  We made it through May!  Well, not so quick… June will have the last word on events in May.  It may feel like one step forward, two steps back! 
The lunar eclipse on May 25 was squaring Neptune, but Neptune was trining Saturn.  Did we go into denial or have we decided to do something about it?  For the month of June Neptune and Saturn will remain in a trine position which will be exact on June 12.  Saturn and Neptune were also trine back on Oct 10th 2012 and they will kiss again this July. The worldly (Saturn) and the otherworldly (Neptune) are working together. Saturn in Scorpio is reforming and Neptune in Pisces is idealistic and spiritual.  Together they can make dreams possible.  And so this month, we will start to see money going into the hands of the dreamers and idealists.  Medical discoveries will be aided especially in illnesses that have eluded us, spirituality will be brought into the word of structure and corporations, and things will happen that some never thought (and sadly still might not think) possible.  Change will happen, but only if we have had the guts to move forward.  For those of us daring to dream, here’s some advice… Stop listening to the naysayers!!!
 
Neptune and Saturn get some extra help with cameo appearances from Mercury and Venus.  Mercury will form a grand trine with the two on June 3 and will help with communicating our ideas and visions.  Also, the communications we make will resonate with others better on this day. 
June 7 is a bit of a complicated day.  Neptune turns retrograde making its dreaminess and idealism even more meta as Venus forms a grand trine with these guys.  Love does matter, especially the nurturing and caring kind, and will aid in making things possible.  But on the same day, Mars conjunct Pallas and the moon are squaring Neptune.  Used poorly, it will make us want to act in haste and want to defend our cause.  Used constructively, we can attract some real supporters.  Which way you go will all depend on the level of consciousness you are operating from.  Do you believe in love, magic and miracles?  Then there is no need to push!  
Mercury and Venus then trigger the Uranus Pluto square; first, with some emotional words from Mercury on the 8th.  Mercury also rules the New Moon on the same day, so a proclamation of new beginnings related to some form of social change may be made; a couple of days later an outer “crab-like” shell on love and finance emanating from Venus and may mean no love for institutions such as governments, school systems and the church. When mama ain’t happy, nobody is happy!
Jupiter is entering into Cancer on June 25, just days after summer begins and will be in that sign for the next year.  Jupiter expands and brings optimism to whatever it touches, so in Cancer, we can expect tradition, nurturing and family values to increase.  The home, taking care of our loved ones and good home-cooked meals will be the focus.  This would be a great time for a family reunion or researching the family tree.  However, Mercury is going retrograde on June 26, also in the sign of Cancer and may cause some miscommunication with family.  If you are planning any of these great family ideas, you may want to wait until the end of July or August.  Unless of course, you want to have some good stories about what uncle Fred did at the BBQ or start family feuds over who got overlooked on the invitations. 

Aries

Big changes have been happening in how you present yourself.  Your personal power and public standing are getting the cold shoulder from your family this month, but you can work with them to aid you as you delve deep into the recesses of yourself.  It’s your family heritage and tradition that will help you to tap into intuitive realms.

Taurus

Your partner and your friends have been real supporters.  Your siblings or neighbours will chime in to really support you this month.  On the other hand, these same folks can be a real pain in the butt, challenging your beliefs and challenging all that unconscious stuff you’ve been trying to keep down under the surface.

Gemini

Your friendships and intimacies are starting to look really different.  Hiccups with money seem to be part of the picture. Well, money can really highlight the sincerity of both these groups… or your sincerity towards them.  For some reason news about work and career can work for you but against them.  Try to work towards the best of both worlds.  You can have both love and career.

Cancer

Whether you’re giving the cold shoulder or words of support, you personal power will make ripples publicly and possibly with open enemies.  Not to worry.  Your actions are still appreciated, supporting new beliefs and ideologies… and the children, which have always been important to you!

Leo

The first part of the month you are quite your normal social Leo, but as the month moves on you move more and more into the shadows.  Leo, it’s not like you to hide out, but hide out you will.  Strangely enough, an undercover love affair may help you to explore the depths of your mind.  Just make sure it doesn’t clash with your work and loosens your grip on your beliefs.

Virgo

A short trip with your honey may help inspire your hopes and dreams – even if those same hopes and dreams seem to clash with your shared resources and having fun.  Ugh!

Libra

As if having your family and your partner breathing down your neck wasn’t enough, now you’ve also got some tension from your career.  Take heart because those same career problems can be the magic formula for making more money and working at the things you have been dreaming about for a while. You hate conflict Libra, but if you rise above it, big things can happen.

Scorpio

Your work and day to day surroundings are changing. You may receive some challenges from overseas or maybe your studies will start to clash with these areas. These same challenges will support your self-expression and creativity, which is what the world needs at this point.

Sagittarius

You may have been experiencing difficulties as a result of the gambles you’ve made with money but your intuition is supporting you this month.  And though you may have experienced losses, you can trust the universe for support.  You may also be able to count on your family and strangely enough, the bank. It’s all in your approach.

Capricorn

All kinds of relationships seem to be there for you – your friends, your neighbours and even some surprises from your honey, although your honey might be coming across hot and cold.  Take the best and leave the rest.

Aquarius

You have some amazing work ideas and you’re a bit more loving and nurturing than you normally are which has you noticing the difference it makes on your career and ability to make money.  This communicative mushiness is playing a number on your subconscious structures and your day to day dealings.  Don’t worry.  It may feel uncomfortable, but it’s all good.

Pisces

Money and friends might have been the source of some grief and you might experience some blocks in terms of creativity.  Let yourself have fun though.  It’s through having fun that your high ideals and self- expression will work for some amazing outcomes.

 

For the Love of Money… the Goddess Route to Wealth

Juno MonetaBe Positive. Send Love. Have Fun. Kick Ass…This is what Marianne Williamson says is the key to wealth in her latest book,The Law of Divine Compensation.

Years ago, many of us ran out to buy the book The Secret, and then followed it up with some more books such as The Law of Attraction and The Law of Abundance.  We tried all the tips and tricks and yet many of us were left wondering why it seemed to work for others but not for us!  Tell one of the successful that it doesn’t work and the simple answer will be that ‘you are doing it wrong!’… But is this really true?

I loved Marianne Williamson’s new book and I thought I would use it as a framework for sharing how wealth works in astrology.  They are similar.

Be positive

Jupiter is the planet of faith, optimism and some would say luck.  Jupiter can bring money into your life because of the simple fact that being positive and faithful is attractive to the universe.  Actually, people operate in the same way… Let’s say you’re at work and your boss asks you to do something.If she has faith in you and is positive with you, I bet you tend to produce,right?  If your boss is negative, pessimistic and an all-in-all downer… you tend to want to run! This is also the case with the universe.

Send love
I have always wondered why Venus, the Goddess of Love, is connected not only with love in our charts, but also with money. Venus is beauty and beauty is attractive.  Venus is also love and love is attractive to both people and the universe.  But here is the truth with Venus.  Though there is natural beauty, the quest for beauty can be materialistic.  It’s the drive that has us go out and spend more than we have on designer labels, cosmetic surgery, procedure and way-too-expensive facial cream.  Love, on the other hand, is the easier and purest route to attractiveness.  And someone who is good at giving and receiving love is someone who has inner beauty.

The truth is that wherever Venus is in your chart is where you will easily attract and whereverJupiter is in your chart is where you will naturally have optimism and faith and will also attract.  In relationship houses, they will attract people, friends and love; and in the money houses, these two will attract money. If your money houses have no relationship to the wealth-attracting planets, then you may have some lessons to learn and you will have to work harder at it.

Going deeper with love
The Asteroid Juno is the Goddess of Marriage.  Juno Moneta, an epithet of Juno, was said to be the Goddess Protectress of Wealth.  What does the goddess of relatedness have to do with money?  Just as Venus is associated with love and money, Juno is also associated with the two. The mythological story of Juno Moneta has many versions, but all stories involve Juno Moneta protecting money by warning of invaders in some fashion.  On the old Roman mint coins, Juno Moneta is often shown holding a scale to measure money.  The scales are also the sign of Libra and are related to fairness andjustice, give and take.  In effect, Juno is protecting us from the takers and is a reminder that we must love ourselves.  The scales also remind us that we must give and take in balanced ways.  When we do not love ourselves and others the inner and outer scales are thrown out of balance and this is reflected in our wealth.  In the growing heart-centred economy, wealth is attracted to this kind of feminine power.


Have fun
I won’t lie, if you’ve got Jupiter in the fifth house or a nice transit from Uranus, the planet of surprises, and you take advantage by buying a lottery ticket, you may find yourself wealthier.  But for those of us who don’t have Jupiter placed there, we can still benefit from the fifth house. In general the fifth house is the house of fun, games, speculation and risk-taking.  We’ve all heard “do what you love and the money will follow”.  When you are doing the things that you find fun, hours can go by and you hardly notice.  Doing what you love lights you up and feeds your soul.The fifth house is also associated with the Sun and your Sun sign is who you are at your essence.  Just being who you are and doing what you love is wealth-attractive!

Kick ass
Well, let’s face it, if you wait around for things to happen then you might be waiting forever. Likewise, if you don’t respect what you have, how will you respect what you get?  So you need a little Saturn (groundedness, hard work and diligence) and a little Mars (initiative and drive). This is especially so if none of those attractive planets are in the money houses. (The money houses, by the way, are the second and eighth houses.)Good relationships with these two planets in your chart can help you in getting to where you want to go.  But even if you have great placements in your chart, unless you apply for that job, you’re not going to get it.  Unless you buy that lottery ticket, you are not going to win.Kicking ass means you’ve got to put some energy into it.

So what does this all mean? Am I doing it right or am I doing it all wrong?
If you are being positive, giving love, having fun and kicking ass, then you’re probably doing it right.  If you find any of these difficult, check out your birth chart for hints on how to overcome any difficulties.  Maybe these are areas for your spiritual growth.

Is love money? Is money love?

Just remember, money is only one manifestation of love and it will be easier for those with great planetary placements within money houses. Other manifestations of love include great family, great friends, help when you need it, work that you love, appreciation, helping others… and so on and so on and so on.  In the end, you can’t take it with you, so enjoy it in whatever form wealth arrives in your life!
