Harlequin's Haven
Greetings and Oceans of Love and Magic my Moonbeams,
Here we are in February 2008 already. Have we returned to work feeling rejuvenated and ready to embrace another year or fun and magic? I hope so! There are lots of changes happening in the cosmos at the moment some on a micro level - Mercury retrograde in Aquarius until 19 February when he turns direct. Do you remember some of the traits of this backward motion? We will have a quick revision then. Mercury is about communication, short journeys, siblings and mental agility. When is retrograde some of these aspects of our lives might be in a little chaos or inconvenience might otherwise complicate our lives. For example, cars breaking down, getting lost when driving to a new town, computer issues or even misunderstandings. It is not a blanket policy on this just some of the aspects of this transition.
This month begins the (drum roll please) "eclipse season!"

Greetings Jemstar,
Today it hit me! I realized that I was suffering from nostalgia. In my dictionary, "nostalgia" is defined as: a sentimental yearning for the past; homesickness". Over the past three days the Great Southern Land, OZ has been celebrating Australia Day. It is a wonderful time of year, smack bang in the midst of summer, honoring our most outstanding or inspirational Australians. It is a remembering time when we think about all of the Australians from all walks of life who have helped carve out a bright uniqueness from this ancient land.
Yesterday I watched Message Stick, which is an Indigenous program. A wonderful Aboriginal woman who is a leader who is paving the way for reconciliation between Indigenous and white Australians for a healing time mesmerized me. I was moved to tears with her dedication (even overcoming her own health issues) to strive for a purpose, which is bigger than all of acceptance, love, and us.
Today as I sat in a coffee shop having a light snack with Techo I was vanquished with nostalgia for you, North America, Canada and Alaska. At that moment I felt guilty, almost embarrassed that I was sitting in a glorious part of town having coffee and surrounded by positive and loving people and here I was having a moment of nostalgia. What do we do with that? How do we deal with the dichotomy of emotions and allegiance of mixed loyalties? Do we sit in our chairs and sweat the fear of movement or do we acknowledge those feelings and move forward regardless.
Some days I like the Neptunian haze. You know the times of drifting and allowing the creativity and vision transcend the normalness of a day. I like to daydream, create, and even hold secret dialogues of futuristic journeys and plans. On the contrary, I like to, "do". As one of my mentors, Yoda suggests, "try, there is no try; there is only do!" (Love that little guy!). I like to pick up the challenge and run with it and take it to a marker far beyond my previous accomplishments.
While I was northern hemisphere thoughts-meandering I asked Techo if I'd changed since I pulled up stakes and moved down to this alpine region of Australia. He said, "Yes, there have been changes but he has been able to cope with them." I thought about it for a while and wondered what changes and why didn't I know about them? Pushing aside the paranoia I sighed and agreed with him. Mid shrug I saw the bully who I'd once worked with driving down the street. I was conscious of my emotional barometer. I did not wince or even blush with emotion. Instead, I saw him as a nothing person; a faceless dude in a crowd. I recounted the times he had berated me in the office in front of my co-workers and how
