It’s Spring! We are hoping that the snow is over, although seeing it snow on March 25 in Maryland was a bit weird yet fun. I’m ready for gardens and flowers and leaves on the trees.
Spring DID arrive as planned on March 20 with the Sun’s entry into the sign of Aries. This is the energy of beginning, of forward motion, of breaking new ground and creating new structures. And New Moons are times to bring in what is really important to us, to manifest the next step on our journey.
On Sunday, March 30, the New Moon in Aries occurred when the Sun and Moon were conjunct at 2:45 pm Eastern Daylight Time. Are you ready to start something new? Are you thinking about what you want to manifest in your life? Then this is the time to do a little ritual and state very clearly, either out loud or in writing, exactly what you want all this energy of initiation to support you in manifesting. The ritual can be as simple as lighting a candle or sitting outside at the time of the New Moon and sending your intention out to the Universe.
If you participated in the Possibilities Playshop, then you have a Playbook with this New Moon identified and this is a great place to record your intentions. If you haven’t attended a Possibilities Playshop yet, then use your journal or meditation diary to track the New Moon intentions and keep notes about your manifesting success. [If you’d like to learn more about the Playshop, the DVD is available here: Playshop Video
Paying attention to the New Moon and the Full Moon helps you to understand Cycles in your life. Keeping a journal of these dates and your intentions around them is a good way to become more conscious of your own personal and spiritual growth.
How is your Spring Cleaning coming along? Are you cleaning out your negative self-talk, self-doubt, limiting beliefs from your mind as you clean out your closets? This is a great time for you to have a private session where you can communicate with your angels and spirit guides and get the information that you need to leap forward into your next step. Send me an email if you’d like to explore having a private session with me, via phone or videoconference. rosemary@thescientificmystic.com
Hope no one catches you with an April Fool’s joke on the first!

What’s Your Commitment Level? – Richard’s Commentary
March 26, 2014 — RichardLife Purpose; Commitment; the Universe is waiting. And:
I can assure you that no one’s Life Purpose is to play small in the world. Remember that there are a lot of other souls waiting for you to show up to play your part.
This is heavy stuff; a challenge! Am I ready? Am I already living my purpose? How can I know, for sure?
A number of years ago I did a values assessment exercise. I listed out my top five or so values, the usual. And I wrote my “morning pages” on each value across several days. I worked hard on this. Then I reflected on these values and I began to reduce them, to simplify them into a formula I could easily follow. The result is pretty simple:
Practice———>Love
A bit of time after I worked through this exercise, I learned about Scientific Hand Analysis. This approach, to determine things about ourselves from our finger and hand-prints is both fun and pretty amazing. Turns out my fingerprints are all of one kind, loops. And the simple meaning of this is my Life Purpose is Love! I also happen to be in the School of Love and my Lessons revolve around Love.
Now, this too seems pretty simple! (Believe me it’s not!). And it certainly aligns with my values nicely! But here’s the thing: that first word in my “simple” values statement is Practice! Oh, yeah. I’ve got to practice this! Every day, in every way.
And, following Rosemary’s reminder, I have to commit to this 100%. There’s no playing small here. There is no end either; no limits, no boundaries. No perfection!
But then just a day or so ago a poem came to me in an interesting context: on Sunday I had taken a day off, completely off, no practice, no schedule, no thinking, a real day of rest. Then as I reflected on this day off, I came back to my purpose, my values:
Practice———>Love
Values:
Two words,
A gesture.
A flow:
No striving
No stress
No cramming
No rush
No push
No list
No deadlines
No wish
No angst
No want
No grief
No fear
No anger
Only breath!
Rhythm
In time
With All.
