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

There is an astrological blueprint -- an astrological chart -- for each moment in time. Every Full Moon and New Moon has an individual chart that captures the particular texture of that precise moment. Generally in LUNAPHASES, Heidi has focused on the qualities of the sign of the Full or New Moon and how we can cultivate the beauty of that sign more entirely.

This New Moon, however, is quite potent in its line up, making it one of the most powerful times to awaken compassionate communication that can make a real difference.

Uranus, the awakener, sits next to the New Moon and the planets Venus, Neptune and Mercury are all gathered together in Aquarius. Add to that Jupiter in Capricorn in harmony with a Taurus ascendant.

Heidi is aware most of that will sound like astrological gobbledygook, but here's the key: Uranus will awaken the compassion of Pisces. Mercury, Neptune and Venus will create a beautiful, inspired, unifying message and the earth signs of Capricorn and Taurus will make it real.

What does this mean for you?

Now that you've spent a couple of weeks in your sanctuary, it's time to emerge and offer what you discovered there -- whether to your lover, your friends or your family. It's easy to feel overwhelmed with feeling or to hide the true texture of your heart, but now is the time to offer up your inspired message. Open wide and speak the poetry of your heart.

Six months ago, in response to a LUNAPHASES call to taking on a new commitment, Lynn decided to begin training for the Los Angeles Marathon.

Lynn raised nearly $1,700 with the National AIDS Marathon organization, and the proceeds went to AIDS Project, Los Angeles, which provides vital services for 8,600 people living with HIV in the L.A. area.

On Sunday, March 2nd, Lynn ran her first marathon.

What struck Lynn the most was how so many people were brought together in this event. The metro was packed with nearly 20,000 runners at 6:30 am, to get to the start line at Universal Studios -- 20,000 strangers encouraging each other, offering advice and wishing each other good luck. The energy was incredibly positive and uplifting.

Residents in every neighborhood came out to cheer on the runners and offered oranges, bananas and water. There were traditional drummers in Koreatown, South Central and in Little Tokyo. In the poorest neighborhood on the course, they came to the sidewalk with garden hoses and sprayed down the runners. A little girl, at Mile 17, stood in the middle of the road with a big bowl of ice cubes.

Los Angeles, on that day, came together with compassion and support on a level that Lynn could have never imagined.

Also, she experienced amazing support from her friends and family. At Mile 4, one friend passed Lynn apple slices. One friend was on a bicycle and showed up at Miles 8, 12, 13, 16 and stayed with Lynn from Mile 24 to the end. Two other friends came with posters that read, "Roses are Red, Al Gore is Green. Show us your tits, you're at Mile 13." They were laden with ice water, chocolate and salty nuts. These provisions are what kept Lynn and her teammates going. And Lynn's unfailing husband rode the metro to every stop that was on the course. He ended up running with Lynn up to the finish line.

Lynn was crying from Mile 23 to the finish line. Yes, she was in pain. But, more than that -- it was that her efforts -- huge efforts -- made an impact on so many people... her friends and family, the people who donated, the people who came out to cheer, and the 8,600 people living with HIV in her city.

In Hand Analysis, there is a gift marking that unites most of the components that are in this year’s New Moon in Pisces. The marking is called the Line of Clairvoyance, which is found on your palm running from under your pinky (Mercury) finger and encasing the fleshy part of your palm. Don't worry if you don't have the line. This will apply to everyone.

This represents the part of you that has direct access to your source.

So -- what do you have in your life that connects you to what is bigger than just yourself?

Where are you when you feel most supported -- by the universe?

Notice how all judgment -- of yourself and others -- disappears.

Notice how compassion creeps in.

When you are connected to source, you become inspired.

Your experience is what we all need to hear.

Now is the time for you to reach down deep, connect to source, and share your message with the world.

Try this:

Go for a walk in nature. Look at baby pictures. Garden. Meditate.
Notice how you feel when you are connected to the world.
Notice what has been percolating, and is ready to come out.

Share with us what you are manifesting. We would love to hear. (Just email us or leave us a comment here on this blog.)

Coming up on the Horizon:
In the next LUNAPHASES, with the Full Moon in Aries on March 21, we will channel masculine purpose and drive with the Hand Analysis skill set of Accessing Your Power.

PISCES -- The Full Moon of Compassion

Surround Sound: The next two weeks are the perfect time to reflect on your internal connection to everything that surrounds us with the Full Moon in Pisces and the introduction to Hand Analysis' Line of Clairvoyance.

PISCES -- The Full Moon of Compassion

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

Here we are -- pre-Spring, post holidays and already two solid months into the New Year. Many of you may have begun your year with gusto. Last month, hopefully, you were exploring your true community. But now, we enter a quieter, more reflective time.

The Pisces full moon is a time to retreat and listen. That is, it's time to find your sanctuary and spend some good solid time there. Perhaps as you read this, you think, "I don't even know where or what my sanctuary is." Well, this is the month to find out. We all need to find a way to "hook up" to a source that is greater than us. Pisces not only rules that boundary-less source, it also rules the ways in which we connect with it.

For some, your sanctuary is a room in your home devoted to writing, meditating or listening. For others, your sanctuary is the beach or mountains. Heidi's husband might very well say his sanctuary is wherever he is doing his daily work-out. Pisces says, "Plug in, refuel and above all, be compassionate with yourself as you do this."

There is a marking in the hand that speaks specifically to hooking up to this source. It is called the Line of Clairvoyance and it reflects that part of you that knows you are connected to the supportive energetic network that links every living being.

The strength of your connection to this network will determine how supported you feel, how much you feel part of your surroundings, and how much your life effortlessly flows in a positive direction.

This connection can show up in a myriad of ways. It may be in that sixth sense you have with people, that lightness you feel when you meditate or how you feel when you take a walk in nature.

Sure fire signs that you have been taken out of your connection are when you feel like either you or everyone around you is a freak, and you feel stagnant in your life -- not moving forward.

The Line of Clairvoyance is a crescent-shaped line that runs the length of the palm, encasing the fleshy part of the hand beneath the pinky (Mercury) finger. Google is a good source for this aspect of palmistry. If you have questions about your paws, give Lynn a holler at www.YourLifeIsInYourHands.com.

Try this:

Sit still for a moment and settle in. Take three full long breaths. Then write down the answers to these three questions. Allow a different page for each question.

• What do I do to feel more connected to source?

• What would I like to do more of to be connected to source?

• What is in my life that keeps me connected to source?

Keep these lists nearby where you can see them and add to them over the next two weeks. No need to take any other action here. The Full Moon is the time for reflection. We'll jump into action in our next LUNAPHASES with the New Moon of Pisces.

The Full Moon of Compassion is not just about opening your heart to others and offering love. (Though Pisces IS the sign of great service and heartful offering). It is the time of the greatest compassion for yourself as you travel and witness your journey. It's a time to soften a bit and recognize that your ongoing efforts to evolve and grow are often taxing and difficult. We must all gives ourselves a collective BREAK.

So, use this Pisces moon to grow quiet, breathe deeply, listen intently and prepare for the full bursting forward momentum of Spring.
