Welcome to the November edition of Merging, as always it’s bursting with interesting articles and exciting offers for the month ahead.

Sitting here on Skye, putting the magazine together, I always find myself in a bit of a dilemma, when thinking about how to present the magazine. I want Merging to feel just right for our readers, to s y n c h r o n i z e e x a c t l y w i t h t h e environment around you each month, but that is where the breadth of our readership brings the difficult decisions. Here in Europe there is now a snap in the air and a shortening of the days, winter approaches - the skiing has started in Cairngorm. But for our antipodean readers the blissful hints of spring are giving way to the full promise of summer. Snowy images on the cover then or inside would hardly fit the bill. So this month I plumped for a crisp full moon which we can all hope to make a wish upon. Here on Skye it would be that we don’t get as much snow as we did last winter!

This month, as always, Gaye has put together a thoughtful feature. She writes about the importance of taking time for

yourself and how valuable it will be to your whole being.

In a way, the article from Rod fits very nicely with this as he discusses the importance of feeling your connectivity with the universe and how taking time to improve this will benefit your own personal power.

And thinking about our new readers we have included this month a feature on just what happens when you phone up Origin for a reading. Yes I know, a good many of you will be experienced clients who know just what to expect and the warmth you will receive, but we never like to forget our first timers, who might just be a little anxious.

There are also our regular columns on Shamanism and Healing and, of course, our Horoscope – I keep waiting for the day it will tell me I’ll meet my tall dark stranger, but alas Kim is more subtle than that and tells me to read between the lines!

We have some great offers for you this month; with the Christmas spending splurge approaching we want to try and help you save a few pennies! We are offering a 16% discount on our hourly readings and over £5 off our twenty minute readings so don’t miss out as our lovely client advisors will be sitting and waiting for your calls. And don’t forget our new referrals scheme; if you recommend a new client you will get a free ten minutes on your next twenty minute reading or longer reading.

How many times have you said: I don’t have time for that, time’s up, time’s running out, how time flies, time stands still.Like most people you can look at your day, most days, and think to yourself, “Where has my time gone today?”Sure, you have done many things, for your family, for your children or partner, for your job, for your home, for this, for that, and so on. But you can still end up at the end of the day wondering where your time has gone and how you’ve once again ended up with no time to stop or just be. It’s been one thing after another in a straight line from morning til night and then bed and then start again. It’s what we call linear time.

Sometimes we spend so much time achieving and doing that we have no time left for ourselves. Many of us lose the ability to just “be”. We can justify achieving and doing, but we don’t seem to value just being enough to make time for it in our day. We can end up in a conflict about the division of our time –the job, the family, friends, and so on, but what about time for you?How can we take away the struggle around time?

Time Management vs Time for the SoulThere are things you can do to manage our time more effectively. You can go to time management classes. You can learn to ft in more into your day. But you can still end up at the end of the day wondering where your time has gone. Why do we end up feeling this way? Why don’t we feel nourished and energised by the way we spend our time?

We don’t give ourselves the gift of time to do what truly nourishes us.

We are the last ones on our “to-do” list for time allocation in a day because it simply doesn’t feel

important, or we aren’t going to get enough out of it that feels important enough or good enough.We need to nourish our souls. What takes you from what has been, and what’s to come, and transports you into the world of just being?

Have you ever been in a place inside yourself where you felt as if time stood still, that there was a sense of timelessness? As children we probably had that experience, to be in a kind of timeless world where all that matters is what is before us at this moment in time. It is as if children have the secret to truly living in the now, the now being that timeless state of being, where all that matters is now.

Poor Quality vs Quality TimeTime is a valuable gift you have to give, to your family, your friends, and to yourself. But what about actually giving this valuable gift to yourself? Not poor quality time; not stressed time; not forced time; not time squeezed in between other more important things.Time just for you. Time to get back to that timelessness, where all that matters is now, where time stands still for just a moment, enough to take you out of the box into a much bigger world, a much bigger sense of who you are.

Time as the Healer. We have all heard the old saying that time is the great healer but how does time heal?This is how time really heals.

Time creates Relaxation. Time creates a sense of relaxation. “Ah! I’ve got some time. I immediately feel more relaxed. The pressure’s off. I feel much better. I don’t feel so stressed anymore.” You know how that feels?

Time creates Spaciousness. Taking more time creates a sense of spaciousness that allows you to link into the bigger picture of things.

Imagine having all the time in the world to think about, to mull over, something really important to you. I guarantee you’ll have a much bigger, wider perspective when you take more time. You’ll see things more as they really are, get more of a bird’s eye view of things, not just a stressed out, squeezed in, quick look-see and then give me the answer.

Seeing the Bigger Picture. It takes time to take it all in, to see the bigger picture. The CEO’s of international companies cannot make informed decisions on a global scale if their decision-making process is something they squeeze into whatever time they has left over at the end of the day. You cannot make informed decisions if you don’t give yourself the time to observe and then mull over all the different aspects to be considered in your decision. That is why relaxation and meditation are so supportive in how you make your life happen, how you make your body flow in the best way for you. Slowing Down means Speeding Up. Think about when you have a cold. Everything takes longer. People might say,“ Get over it.” Or, more than likely you say it to yourself. But your body is telling you to move more slowly. You feel sluggish, you want to slow down and take more time to relax, even sleep. Why? We

know that the healing process takes time, and our body instinctively knows that if we relax and slow down, then the healing process will speed up.

Time promotes an Intelligent Perspective. When we give up trying to control our body; when we give up fighting and struggling for time; then we join forces with our body by creating the time and the space for our body’s

natural intelligence to shine through and clear away whatever is making us ill or unhealthy. And that includes all the stress we put on ourselves by not making enough time for ourselves.

Time to Smell the Roses. Think about when you have given yourself the gift of time and how good you felt to have that time to take it all in, to allow time to really enjoy being connected to the garden, to the trees, to water, to children, to friends, to your body when you take a bath, to your own healing process.

Nourishing the Soul. That is what healing is all about, a healing of your perspective, a recognition of what is really important in

your life and making time for those things that nourish your soul and enliven your body and mind into a state of well-being.

How to get the most out of your reading...

Skye Magic

Cathy Cox

Here in the far north, we have well and truly entered

now into that time of year when the days are noticeably

shorter, and the nights just that little bit darker. There is

no coincidence that the ancients celebrated this time and

recognized it as a time when the veils between worlds

were at their thinnest. But this also allows us to

celebrate light and renewal - deep, inner renewal - an

urge we all experience in some form or another at some

time.

I’m writing at the time of the Full Moon - in fact she

is still there, hanging low in the soft morning light. Like so

much around us here in the stillness of Skye, the moon

reveals herself as a sentient being - she has her own

soul, her own voice, which speaks to us directly. The

universe is indeed a very rich and wonderful place, and

the moon is a very powerful lady, a friend in the night,

who watches over the earth and offers a vibration of

constancy and safety while we sleep. Her light is soft and

comforting, she speaks directly to our hearts. She sings

too, and her song awakens that part of our spirit which

knows how to heal and regenerate for the new day. The

moon reassures us, and lets us know that everything will

somehow be alright. 

Some things can only be seen by moonlight - her

softness awakens a kind of knowing which goes beyond

conceptual thinking. She inspires trust, and that part of

our mind where dreams emerge, possibilities and

inventions are born, and hope awakens for the new day.

Moonlight can seep into all the nooks and crannies of

our consciousness, our 'heart-mind'. The moon's light is

so gentle and persistent, that it will keep seeping into and

through our dreams, until we are ready to bring that

awareness to fullness in our conscious minds. The moon

is the mother of repetitive dreams, the one who quietly

but persistently presents us with knowledge we need.

She softens the more frightening or disturbing parts of

ourselves, and smoothes the rough edges, until those

parts can be dissolved and integrated more deeply into

our psyches. 

The moon has moods, but not quite like a woman!

Her voice changes its quality with each phase. She is very

quiet, even inward looking when in her 'new moon'

phase. And she walks confidently through her phases

until she emerges, abundant and over flowing at 'Full

Moon'. This is when her heart is given full voice, when

she opens herself fully to the sun, and offers that light,

golden and warm and abundant, to all of us here on the

earth. Somehow, even when it is cloudy, her voice is still

there. She peaks out from behind scattered cloud, and

reminds us that light penetrates even the darkest night.

And then, just as nature understands in autumn, she

relaxes back to her quieter self, as she wanes again

through her diminishing phases. This isn't a sad time for

her, but a peaceful time - she knows that she will soon

open again in the right time. 

Most importantly, the Moon helps us to embrace the

mystery of the universe. She sings and reminds us of the

parts of our stories in the past - she creates a passage to

the hidden resources of our soul, the knowledge and

wisdom of our past lives, our accumulated and shared

experiences. She is a communicator of hope because she

forgets nothing, and helps us to remember the depths of

our soul and the extraordinary abundance of that shared

place. And she supports us to accept even the painful

parts of our story - her light gently transmutes our hurt

so that it can be integrated and lose any power to wound

us in our future.

On a course I attended quite a few years ago, we had an afternoon of fun raising money for charity with an auction.  We had each brought something to be auctioned off – one person had a pair of binoculars which his grandfather had used in the war, another brought a crystal which had come to earth on a meteorite.   Each seemed to have something which was special, different, unique.   I looked at the set of wind chimes which I had bought at a garden centre on the way to the course, knowing that we needed something to auction - and felt distinctly uncomfortable at their ordinariness, they were just a set of chimes to put up in your garden.  They didn’t have any special background, they had not come from outer space, or been through the first world war, and I wasn’t the kind of person who could make them seem more special by creating a story around them.

At break-time, I sat with my chimes, desperately trying to channel healing energy into them, to make them more “special”.    Nothing was happening.  I asked my guides if they would please help me channel energy into these ordinary chimes.  Still nothing.  Panic was starting to set in – everyone else had something so special to bring to the auction and I had brought garden chimes.  Feelings of being not as good as everyone else started to appear out of nowhere, I started telling myself off for not giving more thought to what I brought to the auction.   Tears started to flow as I started to feel the pain of this feeling of being less than everyone else.  How could they all feel so good about life and themselves – and how could I become like them?

I sat with the chimes, trying so, so hard to make them special, to make them different, but it just wasn’t happening.  So I tearfully asked the question “why” – why doesn’t it work?  And the answer I received – “there is

no need to try to make them more special – they already are everything they ever needed to be.  They are pure and perfect, JUST THE WAY THEY ARE”.    What I recognised in that split second was that this applies to us all – we strive so hard to be what we think we should be, in order to be a better person, when in fact all we need to do is to allow our true self to shine through. 

So often, driven by our own expectations and the images presented to us by the media, we feel we are less than others, that we need to drive ourselves to become like that image, to behave in a certain way, to be the perfect mother, husband, daughter, employee.   The media tell us that if we wear a certain thing, or buy a product for our house, it will make us a better person, we will be more like that perfect image they present.  Then we are surprised when we buy the product and we feel no differently.  That pair of designer shoes actually doesn’t make us feel any happier.  So we buy more products in the hope that something will eventually make it happen.   

I believe that one aspect I bring to my psychic readings with Origin, is the ability to see through the mist of what is going on in a difficult situation.  I also remind my clients that underneath how they may perceive themselves presently, lies a beautiful soul, a flawless diamond, who is already everything they ever needed to be.  This striving for perfection is an illusion, all we ever had to be, all we will ever have to be, is to be ourselves – perfect imperfection.

ShamanismThis month Graham Watt

explains all about the four

seasons of the Celtic year.

I am very fortunate to be part of the team at the Origin Educere Centre, here on the magical Isle of Skye, where a group of like minded people have created a comprehensive list of Retreat packages, (included in these are Healing and Psychic retreats), for either groups or individuals. This month in particular I would like to look more closely at Shamanic Retreats which are tailored to suit the client’s needs and background.

The energy of Skye has some incredible scenery, whether you prefer mountain or sea, it is an ideal setting to carry out various Shamanic Practices. Let’s look more closely at what we can offer and spend some time understanding the concepts of some of these techniques. Either as a group or individually, I take you out into nature and connect with some of this wonderful energy all around Skye, we will provide spiritual guided tours, where you can expect to work with and sense some of the links to the Ancients.

At specific locations on the Island we will work with the energy of mother nature, lifting you both spiritually and energetically. Experience the various emotions and feelings as you allow your heart to connect with the elements. Imagine going into nature and being able to either see, hear or sense the energy around the trees and plants and rocks. Allow me to teach you how to feel and work with this energy and use it as a tool to take back home with you.

There is nothing more powerful than meditating in nature. So many professionally mixed cd’s or dvd’s try to imitate the setting. Do it for real, listen and absorb the sounds of the island as the wind gently moves through the trees, or the the sound of the waves breaking on the shore, while in the background you hear the call of a Buzzard or Eagle, once experienced never forgotten.

We will also experience meditation with fire - also a very powerful form of relaxation. How often have you sat around a fire or candle and noticed the silence - even bliss, where all external thoughts seem to disappear. For a group package we will also include a Sweat Lodge, working with the energy of the rocks, fire and water. We hold space in a circle within the purpose-built lodge and allow the energy and spirit of the Celts to connect with us.

With my aim and focus being on Celtic Shamanism, we also include Ogham the original tree alphabet, (sometimes seen on standing stones). You will not just understand the language of the symbols but also work with them as a divination tool, similar to Runes or even Tarot - Tarot being the most familiar tool used by Psychics and here we are very fortunate to have some wonderful psychics linked to the centre.

You will be introduced to drumming, (a Shamanic tool used by various cultures, for journeying and healing). For longer retreat packages - 5 days, you will make your own drum, something to cherish forever and to remind you of that wonderful Skye experience.

Any Shamanic retreat would also include a healing, which may involve energetic extractions, a Shamanic journey and/or a Soul Retrieval (all of which we will look at in more detail in future articles). The retreats are designed around your needs and desires. I believe that we all have our own individual talents and ability to work with energy - allow me to nurture and guide you to further develop these inner skills.

Channelling

Past Lives

MERGING NOVEMBER 2010

Gaye Wright

How do you think about your life? As here and now and that’s it? As having a bigger role to play but being uncertain about what that means? Whatever you know about yourself now could change quite dramatically if you discovered that you had a past life doing something very different to what you are doing now. You might discover things about yourself that add depth to your identity, and that change your perspective and your life. Channelling past lives is about going deeper into your identity. Very often it starts as a search for meaning about a relationship that defies explanation. You cannot understand why you are attracted so strongly to someone and it feels so familiar. It’s like meeting a friend from long ago; that kind of meeting where it could have been yesterday when you last met. It can feel intense like a fire out of control, as if you cannot get enough of each other and you are anxious that it will go away again. It is all very strange, but you cannot help but run with the energy.

What makes past lives really important for you is that they create channels into that bigger picture where all kinds of synchronicities are happening and you are thrust into the middle of it all. It can be a little overwhelming at first, particularly if you are discovering an aspect of who you are that has been suppressed and is now seeking to be acknowledged consciously as part of your identity. This happens frequently when an ability, say a healing or psychic ability, is brought to attention in a past life session. This may have already happened to you in a psychic reading. You can feel that truth of what is being communicated to you, but you have either not acknowledged it or have not known what you are meant to do with it. So what do you do? What can you do?

The first step is the acknowledgement. Past lives is about naming and then articulating. The energy can be named as a relationship attraction, which can be then articulated in terms of how you were involved before. Or, the energy can be named as an ability or skill, which can be then articulated in terms of how you have used that ability or

skill before. There are myriad ways of naming but these are two naming experiences that you may have had yourself. Have you experienced a past life attraction in your life? Is there a psychic or healing ability waiting to be revealed? Once the energy is named and articulated, it then becomes possible to explore what it might mean for you in this life. The really important thing to remember is that past life work is meant to deepen your sense of identity as an individual and also deepen your connection with the oneness through what is being named for you. You have to accept this naming before it can be integrated into this life. Many times people reject past life namings because it creates too much upset in their routine, or they don’t have the confidence to go with it. Relationship attraction is often the way through this problem because, when there is someone else involved to go through the experience with you, it doesn’t seem like such a challenge. If the attraction is strong enough then the barriers will come down.

Past lives can seem unreal to you until it actually happens to you. Your life can be going along in a comfortable routine and then everything changes in one meeting, one reading, or even in a dream. Your destiny began long ago. We are always on the verge of new beginnings. Every moment changes you, and the universe changes with every breath you take. A simple way to start connecting with your past lives is to practise this simple past life mantra. This is such a simple statement, but within it holds the story of your lifetime, past, present and future. Breathe in and out a few times, quietly and gently, and feel yourself gradually returning to the source of who you are, of all there is. When you feel yourself relaxed and at ease, start repeating the mantra “I am who I am. I am who I am. I am who I am….” When you repeat this mantra over and over in a peaceful and calm voice, you will gradually experience a feeling of relaxing into a state of blissful being. This is where you are closest to who you are. All you need do is practise and be in this flow and you will reclaim your personal authority to be who you are, without fear or reservation.

I once went to a Writer’s Festival in Byron Bay, an iconic town Northern New South Wales, Australia. Byron Bay is a very beautiful place, discovered by the rich and the famous as well as surfies and all kinds of alternative life styles.

The weather is ideal most of the year round, and, before the coming of the white man it was in this area that the aboriginal Minjungbal people lived for over forty-thousand years. The Minjungbal people, being cultured, intelligent and civilized, lived in harmony with a bounteous and fertile land. They had a prolific food supply a kind of natural supermarket so rich in natural foods that the MInjungbal people needed only a few tools.

It is difficult for us to conceive of how a people lived for forty thousand years in harmony with the land and nature, their way of life balanced and stable. Our watermark of history the birth of Christ only occurred two thousand years ago and we have experienced enormous changes over that period of time, living through enormous wars, untold numbers dying in horrific ways, a slow but sure destruction of the our environment.

What can we learn from these aboriginal people? This is a question we must ask ourselves, particularly, in the light of the reality we are the ones who did our best to destroy them and their way of life. It is obvious that they lived a far superior and effortless way of life than what we have brought about.

What was their secret? If there is any secret for world to discover, this is the one. It is not about becoming rich, famous and successful. It is about the Oneness, our connectivity with Mother Earth, the sun, the moon, the stars and each other. This was their secret and they have

been the most successful civilization in the history of the world as we know it today.

We certainly in this time of global environmental crisis cannot believe that we are living a stable and balanced lifestyle in harmony with nature. The truth is that we have reached a very critical point and we have no idea where it is leading. We do know we are in grave danger of harming the earth’s ecosystem in a most damaging way, perhaps, even to the point of disaster.

At the Festival I listened to a Peter Singer, moral philosopher, who writes about how we need to look at ourselves and the way we live, challenging us to change and take responsibility for the society we live in.

Among other things, he summarized what he considered to be a common attitude of many people today. He felt that many of us have decided we are not terribly important and can do little to influence the flow of world events, and, from that perspective decided that all we can do is look after ourselves.

In other words, we can make sure we are okay in our little patch, even if other people suffer as a result. So, we consume for our needs regardless of the effect that is having on poorer countries, under the banner of what can I do about it.

There are countries in Africa where people are living in real poverty, at starvation level, that are rich in oil. The money from the oil has made a few enormously wealthy whilst the rest live in degradation. Our governments know about this and let it happen. This means we also let it happen.

How do we change things? How do we arrive at a point where we can live in harmony and balance with one another and the earth that we live on? It is a big question

and many people have thought about it and decided it is just too much, they feel helpless before the surging tide of a world charging down the path of destruction.

This isn’t true, of course. The reality of the universe is that the small grows into the large, it is called the ‘butterfly effect’. A butterfly flapping its wings in Calcutta can change the weather in London, if this is the case, then what effect do our actions, thoughts, feelings and emotions have on the far more complex system of human interaction throughout the world. We can change things without going on any protest march. All we have to do is to change our thoughts and our feelings within our consciousness. We are connected with everything. We are all one. We are not separate ego bubbles, inconsequential in the vast scheme of things. The truth is that everything we think, feel, say and do is of incalculable importance in the great universe of harmony that we belong to.

The more we can understand our interconnectedness with everything then the more our personal power as an individual will grow. When we feel disempowered it is because we believe we are disconnected and separate. The greater our sense of alienation the greater our powerlessness becomes. The more we connect. The more we realize and understand that we are an essential component of a vast, powerful and harmonious universe then the more we are confirmed within our-self as an individual.

We become individually important because we have an essential part to play in the great scheme of things. This is the wonderful news of the Oneness. The Oneness makes us all individually and personally important. This happens not from an overblown ego, not from having great riches or being in an important position, but, because we are an essential part of the evolving and growing universe of harmony. This is the case regardless of position, sex, colour, race or wealth.

The truth is that if even a hundred people realized this to its fullest extent the world would be a different place tomorrow, and for the better. All we have to do then is to understand this, accept it, get our intention straight and clear our hearts. This is something each of us can do. We can all accept something wonderful about ourselves. We are, each one of us, an important player in the great game of the universe.

We are all capable of changing the world by understanding how it really is, not how we are led to believe. If all the readers of Merging took these words to

heart, the world would be different tomorrow. What about it? There is nothing to lose and everything to gain. Perhaps, we can learn to live for the next forty thousand years in the Minjungbal people lived, in harmony and balance with ourselves and the Earth we live on.

Aries: November holds promise of drive and energy, especially if you let go of old hurts.  You have the potential to be a bold warrior moving in the shadow realms cutting yourself free from energy sapping connections or memories.  Mars adds to this process by adding bravery to explore your Higher Mind, philosophical beliefs, culture and travel.  Around the 15th you will be even more productive and disciplined than usual, so put it to good use.  The 20th, may see some ego battles occurring, try to use the swords of humour and truth to free yourself and see the bigger picture.

Taurus: Relationships with those special people in your life, take on greater importance this month.   Feelings may be more intense than usual as you try to understand your emotions.  People or issues from the past may resurface, vying for your attention.  The intensity cools from the 7th and becomes more manageable, while progress can be seen from the 18th.  The Full Moon in your sign on the 21st, may touch a raw nerve as you struggle with others or battle with your own feelings and desires.  You may not be hearing the whole story so intend flexibility.

Gemini: The Sun shines light on work matters, service and your daily life, bringing with it much busyness but also a light hearted, sociable energy early month.  Sudden flashes of insight pertaining to work and career feel like a blessing on the 4th and 6th, although others may not be quite so excited so get your facts straight before sharing.  Conversations with those closest to you feature from the 8th, take special care to be calm around the 20th as your mental processes are heightened by Mars, the God of War, super energy to get things done, try a little tenderness too, it works wonders.

Cancer: November brings opportunities to harness creativity.  On the 1st your intuition is heightened enabling you to spot ingenious ways forward, its up to you to make it happen.  Fun and friends feature greatly this month, as does networking so mix business with pleasure.  You may be feeling a little tender for the Scorpio New Moon on the 6th, it offers a new way of thinking about life and love so let go of any expectations and enjoy what’s on offer. By the Full Moon on the 21st your inspirations will have taken root and begun to grow.

Leo: Enjoying the pleasures of family and home life make you feel secure and valued early month. Many childhood and family issues surface for healing now, to make the most of this transit, be aware of any painful emotions and ask for release.  Relationship challenges feature around the 13th, and confusion, so keep an open mind.   The Sun moves into fiery Sagittarius on the 22nd lightening the mood and expanding your social circle, this is a great time for talking with friends or developing creative ideas.  Your ability to express yourself will enhance considerably.

Virgo: November is a time for understanding and expressing your values and beliefs.  The Sun, Mercury and a host of planets bring fresh ideas and awareness.  On the 4th a process of discovery is initiated through the mirror of others which pushes you to think deeply about home and work.  Your vision for the future, how to get there and what prevents you manifesting, is becoming clearer to you.  From the 20th internal processes are given a boost from Mars, bringing motivation and courage to make necessary changes in your daily life.

Libra: This month, Libra’s ongoing maturation process centers around money and how to make the best use of it, time for budgeting and planning. Pluto makes a positive connection with Venus on the 1st, this bodes well for finances and relating but with Venus retrograde, its perhaps not the best time to make a commitment or purchase any large items, your sensibilities may be a little dulled.  Venus moves forward from the 18th and connects with Neptune, creating fantasy and fun in your play sector, enjoyable, perhaps not everlasting but essential for health and well being.

Scorpio: Mars moves through your house of finance and possessions, firing up your desires.  You can benefit from this time as long as you realise these things are not you, only tools that enable you to express who you are and live life more fully.  The New Moon revelations on the 6th, help you to see yourself and your personal responsibilities with more clarity.  By the 14th Saturn’s discipline and focus will enable you to work hard towards your goals. The 20th brings a burst of energy, just try to avoid being too confrontational with the close people in your life.

Sagittarius: Have you ever started out on a journey and then realised you have forgotten something?  Early November brings the opportunity to remember just what that something is.  Around the 4th, unconscious potential is revealed, speeding up your journey preparations.  By the 8th, new understanding and feelings align providing a map, by the 22nd you have a full tank and are ready to go.  The challenges of the journey seldom end at the beginning so expect some tensions on the 25th and 29th, you may have to swerve but at least you know where you are going!

Capricorn: To get the most out of November surround yourself with friends, by coming together to share ideas, dreams and hopes, you will feel inspired and connected.  Helping others also enables you to let go of any ego concerns that no longer serve you and as Mars is travelling through the area that deals with the unconscious many of these may become activated, so work towards a group ideal.  The 14th brings satisfaction from hard work while the Full Moon on the 21st is a time for relaxation and a wee bit of indulgence.

Aquarius: In November, you have some deep thinking and strategising to do concerning your career.  Communications at work are favourable for you to let go of the tensions of the previous months and find solutions to realise your potential.  Exciting news around the 5th, stimulates you into action, travel or training may feature.  The 13th is your personal power day and one when you can work out what more is needed to develop the new opportunities before you.  The Universe supports you, all that is required of you is discipline and belief in yourself.

Pisces: This month holds promise for study, travel and expansion of your mind, there is big potential to recognise a new vision for yourself. Your two ruling planets have both been retrograde for some months; November sees them move forward within a week of each other, enabling your dreams to take form.  Around the 5th, avoid making any concrete plans, your judgement may be clouded and somewhat idealistic.  If you can keep grounded and humble, transits on the 25th and 29th could bring good fortune and increased energy which bring positive outcomes to career and social standing.

The Pain of Love

by Dana Patterson

I’m Dana and I love working for Origin Psychics because I meet such interesting people who are so open to really growing, learning and healing. 

 At this time I would like to invite anyone to write in with an interpretation of the word LOVE.  My personal interpretation is ‘Lots Of Vibrational Energy’. I also need to say something about the pain of love that so many who I counsel intuitively are facing in one form or another.  Let’s look at the word PAIN.  My interpretation is ‘Peeling Away Internal Negatives’.  When two people fall in love they find themselves high on love and are for a time suspended from the old inner conflicts of self-doubt, self-worth issues, fears and insecurities.       When a new love ends before it has really developed beyond the high, it will tend to trigger pain.  If you work with the pain therapeutically, an opportunity of self-discovery may reveal the root of the pain, which often is found in childhood patterns of unresolved emotions and unworthy beliefs.  Think about this: if I generally don’t feel worthy and meet a man who thinks I’m wonderful, then I find myself borrowing his worth for awhile.  In that process, I may feel good when he’s around and in pain when he’s not.  Then, eventually, my lack of worth will drain him as I find myself needing to call him all the time asking “Do you love me?” trying to get him to supply me with reassurance because I’m not creating my own sense of worth and security. Higher Love comes about when two people have their own sense of worth and share that with each other, not drain each other.  So the work that I offer clients is how to have a healthier relationship with yourself first, which will help you develop life skills to have a healthier relationship with your partner.  I think many relationships fall apart because couples feel stagnant, because they are so habitually stuck in the same routines and emotional

reactions to one another that they don’t grow, they just go round and round.  My specialty is helping clients change the negative voices in their head.  If you have a self-critical voice in your mind, then you may attract a controlling, critical partner into your life.  Or if you are a doormat of a giver, you may attract an emotionally broken partner into your life.  If you want your partner to change, first change within yourself and then you will exhibit new behaviors and reactions, which will cause your partner to respond differently. This is what I do in a reading in order to facilitate the ‘How To’ of creating that inner change.    I used to fall for emotionally unavailable men all the time, because on some level they vibrated the same energy that I grew up with.  When that pattern shifted in me, I met a very available man!
