Subject: [Witch_Essentials] An Apology From Gaia -

Hello Everyone --

I must sincerely and deeply apologize that i've pretty miuch been absent from the Group for the last several weeks:

My beloved, darling daughter passed away (very unexpectedly!) a few weeks ago, and my Mother passed away a couple of months ago, so i'm afraid i've been dealing with these issues and unable to think of anything else for several weeks.

I will try to return as i can; please be patient with me, i'm still grieving and it's very, very difficult for me right now.

Thanks Everyone --
~Gaia

Gaia,

Blessings of Light and Love. I send only a Prayer from "The Wiccan Prayer Book" by Mark Ventimiglia

Oh Goddess I humbly pray for all those who have died, but especially for Gaia's family members. Hold them near to you until they are ready to be reborn again from your womb.

Oh God, please grant them an easy rebirth, and that we never forget all they were to Gaia and her family, in this world. Bring them to everlasting joy of the Summerland.

So Mote It Be.

Gaia, Our hearts and prayers go out to your and yours. May the Goddess and God, comfort your heart and spirit with thier boundlesslove.

Kindness and Grace be Yours at this time.

In Your Service,
Thayna

Gaia, there is no need for apology. You are the priority in your life to
deal with everything. We are here always and will keep you in our healing
thoughts. Much love and blessings! Inanairena

Join our brother Peter as he talks about:

• the history of tantra

• currents in tantra today

• the theory and practice of tantra

• the Left Hand Path and the Right Hand Path

• conscious sexuality

• simple practices to get you started

• sex magick

Peter is a Level 2 initiate of Ipsalu Tantra Kriya Yoga.

This will be a clothes-on lecture, and will give you avenues to pursue whether you're single or part of a couple.

February is a short but mighty month that brings us a big alignment of six planets in Aquarius (seven if you include Ceres).  You can read the whole article at this link, but here is an introduction to get you started.  I'll be posting a more complete article on the New Moon tomorrow.
If you are not already a subscriber to my newsletter, please sign up on my website  You'll receive a monthly translation of Skywatch into English each month as well as notifications of important astrological news.
As February begins, Jupiter has just moved into the fiery sign of Aries for the first time since last summer, igniting the energy of fire.  The element of fire is inspirational and energizing, but it can also foster destruction and chaos.  Fire must be harnessed with conscious intention in order to be utilized with the greatest effectiveness, and for this all of the other elements must be incorporated as well: air for intelligence, water for sensitivity, and earth for grounded practicality.
On February 1 there are four planets in Aquarius, and on the 2nd the Moon joins the Aquarian lineup for the Aquarius New Moon.  This is an intense influence that demands our attention, insisting that we refuse to settle for the ordinary, the every day.  Aquarius demands nothing less than the ultimate solution to any problem; that we force a situation into our view of the perfect outcome.
Venus is active on the 2nd, with a sextile to Neptune and square to Uranus.  There is tremendous creative force available now, and this force is embedded in the New Moon which occurs at 9:31 pm at 13 degrees Aquarius.  Uranus challenges Venus to break free of relationships that restrict us, but Neptune enhances the emotional connectivity and compassion of Venus.  This combination can be the key to breaking free of relationship difficulties that seem to have no solution.
We also have an exciting sextile of Mercury to Uranus on the 2nd which also becomes a part of the New Moon energy, awakening us to a cascade of new ideas that facilitate change and transformation.  The energy of this New Moon may be somewhat overwhelming, however, because the planet Mars which governs warfare and defense is in a nearly exact conjunction to the lunation (lunar event).
The energy of Mars is a powerful force of the fire element that can be difficult to tame.  The strong Aquarian component, with five planets in Aquarius, keeps us mostly in the head where the fire of Mars can intensify without providing a real outlet for all of that energy other than a fever of excitement and potential stress.  Fortunately Mercury (planet of the mind) is in grounded Capricorn which will help us to devise a plan so that we can focus this incredible energy into a project that can have some lasting impact.  Physical activity will be extremely helpful in grounding and maintaining a calm centerFor daily planetary news, visit my Facebook and Twitter pages.
