AQUARIUS – The New Moon of Enlivened Community

============================================

The New Moon is the time to jump into action – and now is the time for you to find your peeps. They’re out there – so go ahead and increase your numbers.

About 10 years ago in Santa Fe, Heidi's mother went out to lunch with a few friends. They half-heartedly ordered their meals. But when it was time for desert, they all became very excited. That was when they discovered a shared love. Sweets. They chose to name themselves "The Dessert Dames." To this day, they meet once a month for lunch. Skipping the main course, they order chocolate cake. They are all juicy, creative artists. They love this group. And it nourishes them.

In Hand Analysis, there is a skill set for developing family and community. The skill needed is simply to be who you are within the context of your family and community. Simply, sure. If it were that simple, we would all be doing it, and nobody would ever feel like an outsider.

So, let's break this down into two tangible components:

1) Identify, Display and Communicate your feelings at the appropriate level in the moment that they are occurring – within the context of your family. Warning: Practicing this with your family may be the most difficult thing to do... remember that this is a skill, and all skills can be learned. The more you do it, the easier it becomes. (For a more detailed explanation of this skill set, see LUNAPHASES 2007 New Moon in Gemini – the Moon of Right Relationship.)

Notice what happens when you consider actually doing this... what are your fears? What is at stake? What do you suppose would actually happen to your family if you spoke your truth?

2) Bringing your unique identity into the room. This means sharing your own take on life – and possibly being rejected for it. Key: If you are rejected for sharing your uniqueness – These Are Not Your Peeps.

You are with your peeps when you find yourself expressing your identity without shifting or contorting yourself to fit in. Also, you will find community being drawn to you because of your unique perspectives and gifts.

This time will be particularly potent for people with markings on, or physical challenges with their Left Thumb. Google is a good source on this aspect of Hand Analysis. If you would like for Lynn to take a gander at your paws, contact her at www.YourLifeIsInYourHands.com.

From an Astrological perspective, the best thing we can do during the Aquarius New Moon is to focus on building community. This is the time to join a writing group, get on line and participate in a political forum or invite your friends who love to hike on a new adventure every Saturday morning.

The internet is ruled by Aquarius. It links us. We can share and distribute information. We can sound our note and see who responds. Sound your note. Go in search of people. Create your own forum. Or go out into the world and attend classes, a book signing or a concert.

The time is now to unite with like-minded folk who are moving forward toward what you love. Go join them.
