My Two-Minute Video for this Week: The Big Shift is Coming!
WHERE’S ROSEMARY?
January 27, 2014 — RosemaryI am just coming down from a fabulous “playshop” I conducted this past Saturday. Now I get to implement my own “guidebook for 2014.” We all worked on our guidebooks as a group; now they will not only guide us, but we will keep them updated as our lives unfold! The event was so successful I plan to make it an annual affair.
Meanwhile I’m moving on with my book and my networking activities are slowing a bit while I focus on that! Hope to see you when we can meet up!
Here’s where I’ll be:
***On Purpose Networking, Connections over Coffee***
Friday, January 31, 10:00 am to 12:00 pm, Columbia, MD
Hope to see you there!

NEWS FROM ROSEMARY
January 24, 2014 — Rosemary
Hello from chilly, wintry Maryland!
Get ready for the New Year! Lunar New Year, that is. With our second New Moon this month, on Thursday, January 30, at 4:36 pm Eastern Standard Time, we have another opportunity in January to invite in new possibilities. The Chinese New Year of the Wood Horse starts on Friday, January 31, honoring the Moon Cycle of the year. The energy of the coming week is about cleaning up the old ‘stuff’ from last year and maybe even from decades of ‘old thinking.’
Have you broken any of your New Year’s Resolutions from the Western New Year, January 1? Don’t feel bad! Lots of folks make resolutions but find them difficult to maintain and, by the end of January, they’re out the window and those same folks are feeling that they’ve somehow failed, perhaps with a ‘yet again’ attached.
That’s why we in RosemarySpace don’t believe in those old-fashioned resolutions! We start the year with Chinese New Year and get through the January blahs, the packing up of holiday decorations, the putting away of or returning of gifts, the clearing out of the old year’s junk so that we can pull in the new energy of the year with this Lunar New Year New Moon.
The Possibilities Playshop is deliberately scheduled for just before this New Year so that all those resolutions that you might have thought you ‘should’ make can be out the window while you ponder who you want to BE in the New Year! Even if you can’t join us TOMORROW for the Playshop, you can still benefit by registering to receive the bonuses, exercises, materials list, etc. and the recording of the Playshop so that you can experience this new way of approaching the year at your own leisure. When you join in the fun you’ll be ‘playing’ with creating a guidebook for 2014, practicing tuning in to your own guidance for the year, planning little surprises and rewards for yourself through the year, clearing blocks and fears that might hold you back, and lots of other activities/visualizations that wil l help you with your focus on being who you ARE. AFTER you create your guidebook, you can plan what you will DO, but you will be a much more powerful planner when you have already claimed the YOU that you want to BE! For you, as a subscriber to the MuseLetter, there is a discount code so that you can register to receive the recording and all the other goodies, at the Early Bird Discount rate of only $97 – enter coupon code PLAY to get your discount. Here’s where you’ll find more info: PlayShop Link
I’m thinking of making this an annual event as a way to start each year with a focus on BEing vs. DOing. Feedback on this idea is appreciated!
We had our first big snow in Maryland! 6+ inches is a lot for us to shovel. [OK, Richard did all the shoveling!] Tara, our Lhasa Apso, must remember that her breed is originally from Himalayan Tibet because she loves the cold weather and the snow. I like to look at it from the comfort of INSIDE my warm home! I am hunkering down during these winter months to get the book done – hurray! You might not see me at as many networking events or gatherings because this is ‘cave time’ for those of us in the northern hemisphere. I hope my efforts to get the book written result in a good experience for the readers. Stay tuned to the saga! I have blocked off some time to continue to do private consultations each week so send me an email if you’d like some help getting yourself clear about goals, direction, next steps for this year or if you have some blocks you’re ready to clear. rosemary@TheScientificMystic.com
Stay warm! Although my friends Down Under keep posting on facebook about how hot they are. Shall I send you some snow?
Have a week filled with New Ideas!!!
ROSEMARY’S EXPLORATION: Possibilities Are Right in Front of You
January 22, 2014 — RosemaryThe ‘possible’ is constantly under attack because someone thinks it is improbable, or impossible, or difficult, or ‘not the way we do things.’
This year, embrace ‘possibilities’ as your theme. Search for the possible. Learn to recognize the possible. Talk about the possible. Catch yourself cancelling an idea before you’ve explored the possibilities. Catch other people trying to squash your dreams of what is possible for you.
So often we start out making a plan, setting goals, creating ‘resolutions’ because we think we should. The first rule of goal-setting is that it be realistic. ‘Realistic’ can be the enemy of ‘possible.’
Now, realistic can also just be realistic. But I have seen too many dreams crushed under the accusation that they are not realistic and therefore must be discarded.
What would happen today in the US if the President were to suggest that, in a decade or less, we would walk on the Moon? And, yet, despite all the naysayers, this country made that happen. (I know, there are those who say we didn’t really do that but, remember, I worked for NASA on the Hubble Space Telescope Project and I don’t think they can create a coverup that big!)
Possibilities draw us up to our greatness. Possibilities stretch us beyond what is comfortable and realistic to the former you and invite you to grow, to expand, to explore beyond what you already know into the possible you.
What is possible for you to consider? What dreams do you have that you can pursue?
In working with clients I sometimes have to catch them speaking a belief as if it is a rock-solid truism about how the Universe works. When we address that belief AS a belief, the world of possibilities can open up for them and the excitement starts.
Who is limiting you? Not ‘what’ is limiting you, but ‘who’? The answer is YOU. Even if you think you can list a bunch of folks who are holding you back, the real answer is YOU. You are believing the limitations of the past, the definition of ‘realistic’ that someone else has planted as a truism. You believe of yourself that you might not be able to reach for that dream and so you decide not to reach at all, rather than suffer the indignation of a potential failure.
There are so many possibilities and they are lurking right in front of you but they might be hiding behind that veil of illusion. Take some time alone to reach behind the veil and see what is there. What might you do if you forget about how you will accomplish it and just seek the possibilities? What dreams may lie beyond the veil that you haven’t dared to dream because you didn’t think they were realistic?
Our stories and myths contain all sorts of impossible things happening. Cinderella marries the Prince. Rodgers and Hammerstein even wrote a song for their version of Cinderella titled ‘Impossible’ that contains the line, ‘Impossible things are happening everyday.’ Rumpelstiltskin thought it was impossible that the miller’s daughter would guess his name but guess it she did.
There are possibilities right in front of you but you may have donned your filter-glasses so that you can’t see them. Take off the glasses. Part the veil. Reach for the possibilities and stop listening to anyone who tells you that you can’t do it.
Reach for the Moon. Impossible things are happening everyday!

NEWS FROM ROSEMARY
January 17, 2014 — Rosemary
Hello from chilly, wintry Maryland!
We’re at the very end of Capricorn energy, the mountain goat tenaciously holding onto the side of the hill, andmoving on Sunday, January 19 into Aquarius, the water bearer – the energy bearer. The keynote for Aquarius is ‘I KNOW.’ You’ve heard of the Age of Aquarius because humanity is moving into a period where we start paying attention to the consciousness of community. We move from the personal concerns to the concerns of the collective. We start thinking bigger.
Are you ready to explore the possibilities for yourself, your life, your purpose, your business, your community?
2014 is starting out with a big bang in a lot of people’s lives! I spoke with a financial advisor who said his business was really booming. I’ve talked with others who are feeling very excited about the possibilities ahead of them but are not sure what to do first. Others aren’t sure they see the road ahead clearly and don’t know where to look for next steps.
Here’s where to explore the possibilities for yourself:
Join the Possibilities Playshop and Create Your Guidebook for 2014!
On Saturday, January 25 we’ll be reaching into the dimensions where YOUR POSSIBILITIES are PROBABILITIES and clearing your blocks to manifest them in 2014! We’ll play with ideas about using Moon Cycle energies to support your path in this year. Get ready for the Lunar New Year, which starts with the New Moon on the 30th, and make 2014 your year. More info here: LINK and TODAY is the last day for the Early Bird Special investment level! Invest in yourself and POSSIBILITIES this year! We’ll be recording the Playshop so you can participate later if you can’t be with us live, either in person or online.
My theme for this year is CONNECTION and I hope to connect with you all before the year is done. That’s why I have a Where’s Rosemary? section in this MuseLetter! If we are attending the same events, please let me know that you’re a subscriber. And if you like the information we share each week, please let a friend know that they, too, should join RosemarySpace.
We’re reaching out to our community in new ways later this year so I’d love to hear from you about how we can serve you. Please send me an email if there’s a class you’d like or an event you’d like to see us offer. We listen! rosemary@TheScientificMystic.com
We’re still feeling the effects of Wednesday’s late Full Moon so be careful driving out there! [Remember that the effect starts 3 days before and stays with us for 3 days after the day of the Full Moon.]
Have a week filled with Possibilities becoming Reality!
The Power of Connection – Richard’s Commentary
January 16, 2014 — Richard“Connection” is Rosemary’s word for 2014. It is not surprising that early in the year she would choose this to write about. This word, in all of its meanings, can be taken in many directions. Rosemary goes through a long list, connection to Higher Self, connection to guides and angels, connection to others (both positive and negative connections to the people in our lives), connection to our purpose. All of these are important connections to be aware of, to remember; as Rosemary writes:
Connection is an energetic that, at its highest level, we all seek. We want to feel connected to others, to our guidance, to Source. In seeking we sometimes forget that it is not to be found outside ourselves, but to be remembered as an inner truth.
For me her point here is if we are disconnected from ourselves, from that “inner truth”, then can we be connected to anything or anyone on the outside? And how easy it is to disconnect, to fall into isolation, to withdraw. I wonder sometimes if this isn’t at the root of the issues we face as a society, as a country, as a culture looking for something on the outside, some connection we are longing for but have no means to identify or find.
I don’t really want to get into politics here but somehow this word “connection” brings up social concerns. Humans are a connected species. We wouldn’t have survived and evolved over the millennia if we had been an isolated, individualistic being; in the wild we are not strong enough, don’t have all the necessary skills within ourselves to go-it-alone.
How many of the political battles we see raging in this country, whether it is over healthcare or foreign aid, political favoritism or retribution are about social issues, connections. It almost seems that people divide along the lines of: “we are all in this together” or “I’ve got mine; you need to be strong enough, work hard enough to get yours” – a survival of the fittest mentality!
Interestingly, since Darwin comes to mind here, much of the current research on the evolutionary process reveals that it is cooperation that is a primary mechanism for evolution, not competition! And we have to connect to cooperate, connect to survive and evolve!
Connection, beyond the necessary interdependence for survival, does begin within. When we are connected to ourselves, to Source, to Angels and Spirit Guides, we gain a certain level of confidence that can lead us outward to find healthy connections with others. When we are connected to our purpose our connections become productive and benefit society, the greater whole beyond ourselves. These vital inner connections are the ground for our being human, for lifting our spirits to join with others, in connection, in community to move and evolve consciously.
Are you connected?
ROSEMARY’S EXPLORATION: The Power of Connection
January 15, 2014 — RosemaryWho are you, really? Are you connected to your inner essence or are you going through the motions of your daily life, waiting for ‘someday,’ or retirement or the kids to leave home? Are you truly connected to your Life Purpose? Do you feel you have a connection to inner wisdom and guidance when you have a question?
‘Connection’ isn’t just about the electricity that flows through your house, waiting for a lamp to be plugged in and connecting. Sometimes we can fool ourselves into believing that we have to do something to get connected, just like that lamp.
But the truth is that we are always in a state of connection. All we have to do is to remember that this is so.
You are connected to your Higher Self at all times. Do you take advantage of that connection and access the wisdom that is available there?
You are connected to Source Energy, the energetic flow that is the source of abundance in the Universe.
You are connected to the Angels and Spirit Guides who can help you in your life but they are waiting for you to invite them in, to remember your connection.
And you are connected to other people through the cords of connection that have been established throughout time. Some of these connections are working for the highest good of all involved and others are drains of energy that aren’t supportive of your personal growth. Do you know how to determine the difference and what to do to disconnect the energies that don’t sustain you?
Connection is an energetic that, at its highest level, we all seek. We want to feel connected to others, to our guidance, to Source. In seeking we sometimes forget that it is not to be found outside ourselves, but to be remembered as an inner truth.
Are you seeking Connection? Are you feeling disconnected or connected to energy drains instead of supportive energies? What are you going to do about this?
Let 2014 be the year that you decide to connect to the parts of yourself that you have disowned, have disconnected yourself from. Decide to connect to the energies that support your personal growth this year. Find experts who can help you connect/disconnect as you need.
Start with connecting to your inner guidance. How do you do this? Meditation is a good way to start. Get still and listen to that inner voice.
Pay attention to the signals you receive from your intuition. Journal and allow yourself to write whatever wants to flow through your pen. Take a class that gives you an opportunity to make the connection to inner guides, your Higher Self.
Sometimes you are connected to energy that drains you. Learn how to disconnect or find someone to help you disconnect the cords that are holding you back from growth. Connection is as much about connecting to the energies that are supportive as it is about disconnecting from those that are not. You might need expert help to detach from energies that you aren’t conscious of being there. You will feel free when you have taken care of this.
Connect to like-minded people who support you along your path and with whom you can share your gifts to support them. This is not the time to be isolated from what is going on around you. The world has fewer boundaries than it used to and you are called to reach across the miles to those with whom it is time for you to connect. With 21st Century technology you can stay connected around the globe. It is no longer necessary that you find a tribe with which to connect in your own back yard.
Most importantly, connect with your higher purpose, the reason you are living this life on Planet Earth. Discover your Life Purpose and commit to it. When you connect to Purpose you feel fulfillment and joy. You will find your days opening before you with wonder and light. And you will be connecting to the other souls who have been waiting for you to show up and connect.
Do it now!

Possibilities Are Right in Front of You – Richard’s Commentary
January 23, 2014 — RichardRosemary opens her post with a wonderful belief:
The ‘possible’ is constantly under attack because someone thinks it is improbable, or impossible, or difficult, or ‘not the way we do things.’
I call this a belief because it comes from an optimist! Optimists believe in the “possible” – and everything is possible!
I’ve been an optimist my whole life. I too believe anything is possible. This doesn’t mean everything I’ve ever attempted in life has succeeded, been possible in the long-haul. But this hasn’t changed my basic belief.
One of my last major programs for the company I retired from a few years ago was a satellite-based tracking system that we targeted to long-haul trucking companies. The idea was to offer a low-cost, easily installed device that could pin-point a unit’s location and even communicate with the driver using text messaging. The concept was developed long before smart phones, texting, immediate GPS-based location services, super-cheap hardware and ubiquitous cell-phone coverage. We developed the technology from the ground up and partnered with a new satellite company. We faced many hurdles, delays, technology short-fall, cost-creep and even market push-back. I was in charge of marketing and welcomed the possibility of major market penetration. I became really excited when we developed a device to track truck trailers when they were decoupled from their trucks. In fact during testing with a customer we actually located and recovered two trailers that had been stolen and taken into Mexico; we even helped recover the load on the trailers!
Exciting, right? My sales team began to take orders. The “pipeline” was growing! Major possibility here! Then…further delay; satellites didn’t launch as scheduled; technology failed; delivery of component parts was late; competing technology came on strong; and the company, wisely, withdrew development funding from my program. I took nearly a year to shut the program down, redistribute staff, sell off piece-parts, resolve lawsuits and close the program office.
Possibility turned to failure. I look back on this as a wonderful example of a “possibility right in front of me.” In this case it was handed to me; and I grabbed it and took it as far as I could. The program did not succeed; but I did! I made sales. I installed units and they recovered stolen equipment. That possibility was realized. And, oh by the way, I had a heck of a good time doing my darnedest to make the whole thing work. I even learned a great deal about the trucking industry! There was a lot of success inside this program that I look back on with good feelings and pride.
Eternal optimist? Yes. And I have had many great possibilities fall into my lap since that “failed” program. They keep on coming. My next one for 2014 involves a major trip mid-year that is exactly inline with my purpose and my entire world-view. It may be the biggest possibility of my life so far. I will be sharing more about this possibility as it unfolds, as I unfold it! Stay tuned!
Are you an optimist? Do you look at all the possibilities right in front of you? Do you follow Rosemary’s advice?
There are possibilities right in front of you but you may have donned your filter-glasses so that you can’t see them. Take off the glasses. Part the veil. Reach for the possibilities and stop listening to anyone who tells you that you can’t do it.
Impossible things are happening everyday!
