Power

Own your own power – every storm brings a new beginning.

Sunrise, sunrise like magic in the skies I was up early this morning and the crimson glory of the skies took my breath away. I was in awe of the colours and the beauty. I thought this is the most perfect way to herald a new month!

Saturn and Pluto are encouraging us to detox our lives. I maintain however, that we must own our power. I’m not suggesting power over anyone – that trick never works Bullwinkle! What I am saying is to be strong and resolute in who you are and what you want in this life. This is not a dress rehearsal. In fact each day is opening night.

It is a number six day of commitment and responsibility; its time to take a personal inventory. Look at your home. Could it be more comfortable? Review your diet. Does it need adjusting?

It’s Monday – Moon Day and the Moon is in the detailed oriented sign of Virgo. Virgo represents daily rituals. It’s the first day of a new month. The slate has been wiped clean – start fresh with your commitment for a healthier you. Whatever aspects of your life that need detoxing the skies are supportive right now. So, thunder birds are go for a new you!

For me, my morning reading allies the truth of my being. Strength, death, hermit, the devil and the Moon - you know what they mean? I am subconsciously drawn to the rhythm of the skies and unconsciously connected to you.

It I was to choose an archetype today I would choose Harry Potter. You know that scene when Harry has been scraped by the teeth of the poisonous snake and the phoenix flies in and sheds a teardrop on his arm? Well that is me – I am about to receive the healing from the phoenix.

What archetype are you?

Love, Peace and Happiness,.

TAMING THE TEMPEST

She stood upon the rock naked and in her glory
Screaming provocatively above the frenzy
of the raging sea before her
Nymphs swimming and thrashing upon horses,
clawing passionately
exposing the real story.

Birds on high, chaos below
nakedness swirling, no where to go.
The tempest was surreal
as they all reached out to feel
the wonders of their mystical connection
convulsing and going with the flow

Ultimately resisting temptation
tainted by their very existence
They could be rewarded for their persistence
To stay afloat, to thrive, to breathe,
for just another moment
wreaks unrequited passion
frozen in time there was no reason
to expect a hand reaching out to tame
the tempest, to calm the unreal sea.

Thoughts flashed through her min
exorcised her unleashed passion
suffering the exquisite pain
all that she could do was remain
upon the rock
demanding, revealing, heartfelt
taming the tempest – that is her story
perched atop the rock in all her glory.

Relaxation

Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest. Mark Twain

It is the morning after the Full Moon. Last night I danced under her glow relishing in the magic of the silver orb. I also made a solemn promise to myself to relinquish all of my bad habits around food choices. This morning my subconscious reflects that intent.

Death augurs the end of a phase. The Black Knight charges into my reading and demands letting go of the attitude and behaviours that no longer serve me. My toxic choices have been made from the darkness of my emotional realm. They cannot pollute the freshness of my future.

Now it is a new era in healthy choices and I will surely reconcile the truth (PS: I got on the scales and I’ve lost .7 of a kilo so that is inspirational too, isn’t it?)

The Wheel of Fortune blazes into my reading and admonishes my guilt – stripping away the remanets of a hedonistic existence – I am determined that the celebration will be based on the promise that food is medicine and longevity is the lure.

Judgement heralds the chapter of letting go and allowing love to guide me through the darkness of reality. It has been an intense period – the battle is nearly over – sign on the dotted line and the deal will be sealed – forever!

The Food rushes in and whistles, “You, over here – common this way! Take the high road to Utopia – a place of healing. Wise choices inevitably will yield wise outcomes. Travel light and you’ll be alright! The sun is shinning on a new way of life.

I do feel inspired by the results on the scales this morning. I’ve added fuel to the fire by putting away some new clothes from my favourite clothing store. Sure they fit and are comfortable but there is no room for excess weight to be layered in the garment. The focus and determination are cloaked in the inspiration that I will achieve my goal of weight loss and the most positive outcome will be a healthy body.

So, what is on the agenda today? Relaxation is the answer. I’m allowing myself to be lazy. It’s okay to “do” nothing. Although I prefer a combination of nothing and moderate exercise such as yoga and walking. I am also working on my e-zine articles for Jestacom (www.jestacom.biz)

February is looming and I must get the columns ready for publishing.

Yesterday was a busy number seven day and today, a number eight day suggests success in business. It is a good day to connect with the ambition within. Look and act successful. Be organised and reorganise. Success is mine now. I am powerful and prosperous. I go from success to success. I am the benevolent and loving direction of the Kingdom I’ve created.

The numerological energy of the day contradicts the intent of having a lazy Sunday doesn’t it? Well, I guess I will strive toward achieving both.

The Moon is still lingering in her creative Leo phase. It is a good time to invest some innovation into our projects and wallow in the ardour of the spectacle of this magnificent lunation.

Saturn and Pluto are still lingering in the background and the fall out from their heavenly battle will impact on us here in the Earth School. Forewarned is forearmed so what attitude or behaviour do you need to relinquish today?

Enjoy your Sunday and joyfully release the tension from your life – your way!

Love, Peace and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers
TREETOP SERENADE

Chilling wind
Unforgiving wind
Howling wind
Take away our sins.

The clouds and dismal skies disappeared today
And I sighed, okay!
Exquisite sunlight peeked through the branches
Life should not be so hard
I said out loud
As I saw a cloud
Float across the clear blue canvas.

Chilling wind
Unforgiving wind
Howling wind
Take away our sins.

Hope is but a glimmer of sunshine on a cloudy day
For every challenge and lesson we must pay.
With strength of spirit
And heads held high
Oh! How I wish I could fly – above adversity
Float up to the branches
And swim and bask in the glory
Glimmering, shimmering, screaming in delight, my story
Heart and soul full of optimism
In a treetop serenade

Reflect

The beauty and the bounty of the day lie in the fullness of the Blue Moon. The Moon is at her grandest at 5:17pm 11 degrees Leo. She is in her flamboyant phase, shinning her magical beams upon us to remind the mere mortals here on earth of the power of love and the importance of creativity.

Sounds wonderful? Well, yes of course it is! However there is also a powerful tug of war between arch rivals, Saturn and Pluto shaping up in the ring. Saturn represents stability and Pluto insists upon evolution – metamorphosis. While this is their battle it is also a time to exorcise your demons and or bad habits and choose to whisk them away in a luminous finale.

Leo resides is the fifth house of love and creativity. The Moon is an ultra-feminine planet. This combination at the lunar phase which insists upon conclusion/resolution presents the perfect auspicious to bring to a climax all these aspects which are pertinent to you right now. Each facet will come to you with integrity of your unique situation.

Mark Twain offers, “Man was made at the end of the week’s work, when God was tired.” You may agree or disagree – I believe it is up to us to make our own mark. In saying that, I maintain that it is not our capabilities which make us who we are it are the choices we make that lead us to our destination.

The number seven personal day suggests that we journey within. Look within and receive the answers you are seeking. Take time to go within, be in touch with your inner wisdom. The colours for today are purple/violet and the jewell is amethyst.

The Empress gives birth to a new phase; a new direction. The labour is over and the freshness of a new chapter is intoxicating. It’s time to squat and connect with the earth – wait one moment longer in the embrace of Gaia. Are you prepared to wait? If so reflect on what is important to you!

The Lover’s wink knowingly. They are basking in the ardour of their love. The world exists outside their haven – no trespassers allowed!

The world is on offer – Venus touches the garland of plenty – step this way – tread carefully for you are walking on my dreams.

You are the star in your own blockbuster. Lights, camera and action – roll the film – no wait. How is your make up? Are you wearing the right colours? The script has been edited – do you know your lines? You’ve crafted each word perfectly from your thoughts, words and desires. You connect with the desires of the passionate actor within – step out from the wings and take your spot on centre stage. This will be the performance of your life. Wait. Just a minute – timing is everything – reflect just a moment – keep your eyes open – joy lives in small places and tiny movements. Success can be in the fluttering of the eyelids or the obtuse grimace of your pout.

Make sure that the choices you make will lead you in the direction of your dreams.

Love, Peace and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

THE RED ENVELOPE

Today the mailman trudged through the snow to my door, at which time he thrust into the opening in my door a read envelope. Peeking excitedly into the curious little flap, I was aghast; a letter within and a feather from my friend.

As my eyes skipped over words of love and news from the Land Down Under, I began to feel and reel for the love and friendship I have received today. Tingling sensations vibrated down my body and soon I began to realize just how much I am missed and I began to enter into bliss.

I held the red envelope close to my heart for just a moment and I became aware of just how much she cared. My fingers gently slid over the feather I knew in an instant it was a gift from Spirit, taking my soul and making it anew. I sighed and smiled with delight as I wondered and pondered tonight – just how blessed I am, and I screamed – alright!

Today a red envelope was delivered to me. And now I laugh and dance with glee. I have received and now am sure that I am truly loved and celebrate that the postman had trudged to my door.

Achievement

When you fish for love, bait you hook with your heart, not your brain.
Mark Twain

This working week ends with a number six day. It is a day to take your personal inventory. Look at your responsibilities. Any that needs taking care of? Do you owe anything? Now is the time to pay up. Stay home. Enjoy your family. Fill you day with music.

It would be nice to stay home, wouldn’t it? You know, to play hooky and hang out at home and enjoy the bliss of this Cancerian moon mist. While it would be a nice thought to do just that it is also important to remember that working supports our homes and havens. Well that is the motivator I embed on my daily rituals.

A number six day supports achievement – choose your dreams. You may be surprised where they lead you! My dream at the moment is to settle the conveyance of my property in Coffs Harbour. I want to bring an end to that chapter of my life. It is not as though I want to forget about Coffs Harbour entirely as I have many treasured memories that loiter in the forefront of my mind closely tied to this Harbour side town. No the closure is purely financially motivated. The sale of that property will fit nicely into the Pluto in Capricorn strategy.

Pluto in Capricorn highlights our financial dealings and business ventures. This transit is a period of consideration of how you conduct your finances and how your balance sheet does reflect your lifestyle choices. It is also a phase of reducing your debt exposure and to live within your earnings.

Pluto does not advocate that you live a Meagher existence just be prudent and mindful about your investments and financial ethics. For you if you build your business on quick sand (unethical practices) then you will find that the structure will not be sustainable. Ironically, the economic downturn aligned with the movement of Pluto in Capricorn.

Temperance is my guiding angel. She offers prudence and balance in all dealings. Her philosophical approach highlights my morning reading – stay tuned – you are about to embark upon a journey in pursuit of a vision. Justice augurs contracts and legal negotiations. Fairness and diplomacy are the desired outcomes. The Fool promises a new phase – a light – bright vivacious phase of accomplishment and freshness of heart and spirit.

It’s time to be considered in your thoughts – only the best and you will create the masterpiece of your dreams. We meet again will take you into the caverns of my soul – enjoy!

Love, Peace and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

We Meet Again

Pounding hearts together again
I touched your heart, remember when?
We would beneath the oaks
Come together and thou doust float
Back in time across the sea
When I was you and you were me.

Hearts filled with passion of love anew
I’ve dreamt of this day when I would find you
We have come this way for love’s true story
Basking in the light of this tumultuous glory

Sunlight touching our nakedness unfolds
A raindrop trembling on a leaf so bold
Bodies quiver, shiver and anticipate
You come to me afore it’s too late.

Secrets of lives gone past
This time alone fleeting past
A wink, a blink and you are gone
An empty heart and off to roam.

We met before in time of war
You kissed me sweetly and left before
I cried and tried to push you from my mind
As I knew it was not our perfect time
We met then and would again
Connect once more and become true friends.

April 1999

Trust


Of all the animals’ man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it. Mark Twain

The Moon has returned home. She has entered the fourth house of home and family. This is natal phase and she lingers here while she is preparing for her “Crone phase”.

There is a full Moon in Leo on 30th January AEST and this moon phase will signify resolution/conclusion for creative projects.

Numerologically it is a number five day of changes and surprises. This is a good day to promote and advertise you. Look at another side of life – give something away. Sell something. You feel free today.

It’s also a good day to trust your decisions. March to the beat of your own heart. Here I am world, open and receive to all good, which I accept with joy and pleasure and gratitude.

There is a prominent Saturn and Pluto link in the skies at the moment. Saturn is renowned for breaking down the established order of things and Pluto represents transformation. This alignment will impact on us all – just like the Sun and Moon affects our personalities, identities and how we represent ourselves in the world.

This Saturn and Pluto alignment has played out in my conveyance for the sale of my Coffs Harbour property. Yesterday at the last minute – right before exchange of contracts a potential problem arose and I had to negotiate and facilitate the issue with a calm and reasoned demeanour. While I feeling annoyed and darned disappointed I knew I had to be reasonable and take a diplomatic approach rather than allow my aggravation with the situation creep in.

The High Priestess exemplifies wisdom and prudence in all negotiations. She knows that the outcome will be realised it just takes time and strategic planning. The Star is the beacon of hope and trust. She knows that all will be resolved at the perfect time. Death is the end. It is over – the door is closed and a new phase waits. The dawn is a spectacle and magic lurks in the golden beams of optimism.

Magic also lurks in my kitchen. My little witch, Grizelda swings on her broomstick to the beat of her drum. This is her story.

Peace and Love,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

Grizelda, the Kitchen Witch

High above the town she flies
On her broom high, high, higher
Overlooking the busy streets
Comings, goings – what a treat!

Everyone is off to work
‘Round the streets do not lurk
Work to be done
Busy busy everyone!

Exhausted, elated she returns
To gaze below and to yearn
She is a magic girl – what a whirl
Perched on high in my kitchen so bright
Eclipsed in her beauty of twilight

Her skirts of blue rise to show
An awesome and misty glow
She’s not good looking, that’s for sure
However, her eyes twinkle and that’s the lure
Overseas and back to shore
Across the lakes, rivers to my door
Her sense of fun is a joy to witness
Hair of straw writhing in bliss
Shrieking so loud compared to none
Griselda’s her name, remember everyone!

Independence


“You are never too old to become young!” Mae West

It’s a number four day of organisation and building foundations for the future. It is a good day to dream the dream and create the building blocks needed to create your prospects for a dream life.

What foundations do you need to put under this dream? What is your foundation? What building blocks are required for you to make your dream a reality?

What I’ve noticed during my social networking excursions lately is how the “accomplished dreamers are now becoming dream-makers”. What I mean is that people such as Demi Moore and Oprah Winfrey are working to feed the dreams of others. I admire that action and conviction to passing the dream along don’t you? Basically, they have fulfilled their dreams and are now willing to lend a hand in true philanthropic ventures – to me this is the purest example of the human spirit.

We all have dream – they are as individual as we are – decide for yourself and be independent.

The Star faces all of the worries of the world and yet she is filled with hope and optimism. Temperance rises above adversity and seeks the higher mind – the philosophical perspective. The Magician holds the way of creation – now where was that spell?

Here is a poem I wrote several years ago perhaps you will get a sense of the dream-filled magic I offer to you today!

Love, Peace and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

The Witches of Essex

Around the boiling cauldron they sang
Once before and never again
Stirring and singing free from trouble
Toil, boil, gurgle and bubble
Consulting recipes of old
Pinch of this and a drop of that
Eye of newt and wing of bat

They posses secrets of days gone by
Long ago, grab a broom and fly
High above on skies of blue
Silvery moon glowing, I think of you
Over oceans, fields, rivers and land
Bring to me the perfect man.

Channeling messages of souls beyond
To bring to us and never wrong
Like a doorway open and free
Walk through slowly and come to me
Respect and love guided from above
The come to this place engulfed by love.

In dream, awake they are always alert
To pay attention to what is heard
Lives lived without a trace
Here today gone tomorrow full of pace
They are here to heal this much is true
From whence they came to be near you

When you see them on the street
Don’t scoff and look, don’t retreat
For they have come this far to be used
They are not here to be abused
A love of nature is close to their heart
A gift from the Universe to depart

Priorities


Man is the reasoning animal. Such is the claim. I think it is open to dispute. Mark Twain

The Moon is in Gemini. The ruler of this airy sign is the planet Mercury. Gemini is renowned for its communicative abilities. It’s home base is the third house which represents intellectual pursuits, short journeys, siblings, logic and cleverness.

It’s a number three day; party time which bodes well for Australia Day celebrations. It is a day to have fun, enjoy yourself and share your joy with others. Say: My life is a party to be enjoyed by everyone – yes that includes you!

For me, I am focused on y priorities. Sure it is fun day of celebration but I am also looking at what comes after the party.

I have begun a new book for journal and pasted in the prompts to get me back on track, such as my weighing in schedule and other such stimulus.

I got on the scales this morning and have accepted the result of all of my past celebrations over the past couple of months. Now it is time to get serious about reconnecting to my commitment for a healthy lifestyle.

Yesterday I went for my three monthly check-up with the nursing sister at my local doctor’s surgery. She is a lovely, honest and funny woman who is a great confidant and genuinely nice person. I am not sure if I’ve shared this with you before but I was diagnosed with diabetes some years ago and I must be careful with my food and lifestyle choices. Fortunately I’ve got the insulin statistics under control but still I am at the mercy of what I put in my body.

Diabetes is a very serious impediment. Unfortunately it is quite common in my family and so this inherited disease is one that I don’t ignore – well not for too long anyway. I have to watch my food and drink intake, I also must be mindful of my stressors and my tiredness. It is all about lifestyle balance which I am committed to.

Over the past couple of years I have lost a lot of weight and therefore reduced the risk however yesterday I faced a reality check and have chosen to get back to the serious business of watching and monitoring my health habits. It’s been a nice escape though – but it is over. I am not discouraged by the road ahead – instead I feel inspired to achieve the goals I set out two years ago.

When we get our priorities straight – when you know what is important, saying no gets much easier.

Love, Peace and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

Now for some Julia poetry:

My Knight in Shining Underwear

At the kitchen bench he stands
Spatula in hand
Dancing around to music of a different beat
Oh! I wish he would take those eggs off the heat
Gyrating, moving without a care
He’s sweet and so unique in his underwear.

To cook for me it is a treat
To hold me close and listen to his heart beat
He is a man of honor
So brave and true
To light the grill and cook for you.

Each day he rises before the others
To come to here and make a meal
With passion, love and so much zeal
Our Knight, what a prize!
To jostle and to laugh
Making breakfast such a performance
Grab a hold and do a dance.

A serious man, hardworking and true
He loves to love and feel brand new
He gives so much without a care
Laughing out loud in his underwear
Barefoot, wriggling across the carpet
Another masterpiece to delight
To give thanks would not be appropriate
For he loves to give, don’t you know?

He is bold, alive and so loving
The feast, aromatic coming from the oven
To watch his performance on this bright morning
Is to be exposed to devotion dawning.

My heart is filled with emotion
I love this man with such devotion
I have found my Knight
He is here beside me always
Among the dishes and along the hallway

I smile and think how it would be
To watch him smile and dance for me
For fifty years would be a dream
To spend a life with him, what a scream!
Laughing, loving and touching would be divine
My Knight without a care in his shinning underwear!

Faith


Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to… Mark Twain

Renowned as a novelist, journalist and humorist, Mark Twain is not only one of the most widely read and admired American writers he is also among the most quoted. I have decided to open my journal each morning with one of his quotes as a way to start our morning conversations.

I have also decided that I will close our e-conversations with one of my poems. I hope you like the new format.

Today we are in the Master 11/2 number – it is a day to follow your star. The jewell is silver and the colours are grey, white, black or pearl grey. It is a day to inspire others. Be a light in the world!

My major card reading took an interesting trek from new beginnings to abrupt endings. The first card was the Empress – Gaia – earth mother – giving birth to a new phase; the next, High Priestess – engaging my intuition to lead me out of the darkness. Then, the Tower appeared – lightning strikes and values and beliefs are challenged by the bolts out of the blue – step aside if you don’t want to be perpetrated. And finally, the Chariot – galloping down the road in two directions while holding tightly to the reigns – I am in control of the future direction but there is a choice.

The Moon is void of course today – which means that new ventures started today won’t go anywhere – we must be patient if we want movement or change. Although, I advocate that this a good time to plot or plan your next move – do your research and be ready for the shift in the cosmos then implement with passion.

Yesterday was a wonderful day. We started out with the intention of seeing the Parisian exhibition http://nga.gov.au/Exhibition/MASTERPIECESfromPARIS/ but changed direction. At breakfast I casually mentioned that we should be prepared for large crowds at the Gallery and have an alternative choice ready. Roger said okay and we will fly by the seat of our pants. And we did!

We changed our plans and went to the Portrait Gallery http://www.portrait.gov.au/ and were overwhelmed with the magic and creativity of the artistic splendour. The portraits, sketches, busts and statues were phenomenal – it was a magical experience. Better still, it was not crowded so we were able to browse and absorb and read the synopsis of all of the individual displays. Many Australians featured in an array of art forms were exquisitely crafted and set in a clean and minimalistic gallery setting. I was delighted with our choice.

After that gallery we decided to go to the National Library and see the Ballets Russes in Australia Exhibition. Apparently the Ballets Russes were one of the most important theatre companies of the twentieth century because of the way dancers, choreographers, artists and composers all worked together to create an exciting new kind of ballet. The company was a huge sensation around the world. Our weekend away was rejuvenating and I feel fulfilled with the exhibitions and the creative sojourn.

Today I am having a body wrap and meeting a friend for lunch. Life is wonderful and I am enjoying my mini holiday.

Even though we took a slightly different turn I was not disappointed. We will visit the Parisian exhibition but a time when it is a little more tranquil.

Today our card is Faith. Have faith. Faith grows when you act without knowing the end result.

Now I would like to share some of poetry from a collection I created some years ago called, Merry Meet. I will include one poem each day (and I won’t nominate for how long – we will just trek together).

Prologue: Out along the rim of our reality lurks our imagination. If we never venture to this rim we do not embrace the essential part of ourselves. Dancing across the boards of reality and touching the rim allows us to see the perfect balance between what is and why not! Julia Ashton-Sayers

Live your truth! Live in the moment and enjoy the rim!

Snake bites, Marshmallows and French Toast

Life was so breezy
Jaunts of fun and discoveries a new
Supping at life and being with you
So cozy, so warm and easy

Coming home to a crackling fire
Full of fun and desire
Sharing one and all
To touch to tremble one and all
Beneath your fingertips I would fall.

To taste your lips
To sip, to sigh
I love you with my heart on high
I give to you my love and trust
I swim and float in your passion and lust.

Never before nor again
Will I, could I love so deeply
To share myself unrequited and sublime
For you, my love and only this time

I smile at you across the table
What did I do to deserve you?
So willing and so able
To give to me without hesitation
A love so incredible and full of inspiration

We share a meal
So unreal
Food to taste
Without any haste
To drink at your fountain
I would climb any mountain
To swim in your eyes so penetrating
I have given of myself without hesitating.


To toast a marshmallow
To gaze into the fire
Your love for me takes me higher
The sweetness of your body next to me
As it stiffens in ecstasy
Your breathe deepening
Your pain exquisite
Our energy combined
On this passionate moment
Tantalizing, succulent and so frightening
I tense and freeze a bolt of lightning.
On this night I vow this to be true
I have come to the well and given my soul to you!

Anew


I keep my mind and thoughts off “this world” and I place my entire focus on God within as the only Cause of my prosperity. I acknowledge the Inner Presence as the only activity in my financial affairs, as the substance of all things visible. I place my faith in the Principle of Abundance in action within me.

As one cycle ends another begins. And so is our current numerological calendar. It is a 10/1day – the moment one cycle ends and another begins. In saying that, our 40 Day Prosperity Plan has come to an end. And I will now ask, has this commitment to the plan impacted favourably on your life? Has your financial situation improved? I sure hope so! Anyway, file away the previous entries from my journal and take them out when you need a reminder of how to create or recreate your financial world. Happy manifesting!

It is time for my journal to take a slightly different tack. I’ve thought about this for a while. The beginning of a new cycle is a prime time to take a slightly different direction don’t you think? So what I have planned is to introduce a little irony and a slightly different slant on my creativity. If you want to know more then you will have to join me the next page of my journal entry.

The Hermit advises caution and a refocus on the path of well-being. Indulgences are great but that is exactly what they are. To much of a good thing is a powerful aphrodisiac toward a wrong turn – so this card is a reminder to get back on track.

Justice advises that all good things must come to an end. The romantic weekend away is about to conclude and what have you done? And what have you learned?

Our retreat has been rejuvenating in so many aspects of our relationship – time to dwell on the importance of intimacy and connectedness – time to languish in the pool of love.

Speaking of languishing – the Hanged Man sacrifices himself on the tree of life so we may live, love and enjoy life to the fullest extent of our ability and circumstances. What are you dong to live your best life?

Well, for me I am starting the day with a spa before breakfast. We are going to the dinning room for a buffet breakfast. After breakfast we are heading off to the National Gallery to see the Parisian exhibition. Then lunch at a romantic destination – soon to be decided then home for the reality full stop on an incredible weekend.

For now we are basking in the glory of our time together. We have opted out of the weekend rituals of domestic duty and accountability. It is a powerful interlude for healing and rejuvenation – a time to begin anew – a time to refresh and look for the new.

I hope new doors to life! Today I trust the infinite wisdom within me in the new areas of living. I am safe and secure as I step out, trusting the process of life to be there for me. Life supports every step of the way. I am fed, clothed and housed in loving ways that are deeply fulfilling for me. I meet the new with open arms knowing that all friends and lovers were once strangers to me, I welcome new people into my life. Today is a glorious new day for me!

Love, Peace and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

Magic all around us


When I am aware of the God-Self within me as my total fulfilment, I am totally fulfilled. I am now aware of this Truth. I have found the secret of life, and I relax in the knowledge that the Activity of Divine Abundance is eternally operating in my life. I simply have to be aware of the flow, the radiation, of that Creative Energy, which is continuously, easily and effortlessly pouring forth from my Divine Consciousness. I am now aware. I am now in the flow.

It is a number nine day and the second last day of our 40 Day Prosperity plan. We have travelled this creative path together. I hope that this journey has been satisfying and rewarding for you?

The energy of a number nine day has built the energy toward a conclusion or resolution.

In the numerological cycle we are encouraged to experience the essence of each number. Each day I offer the interpretation of the daily rotation and the potential of that energy and thus giving you the opportunity to embed that influence into your day. For I believe it is up to us to capture the potential of the Universal energy integrate with our individual cycle and capitalise on both influences in our daily lives.

The Moon is in the earthy and practical sign of Taurus. I often submit that Taurus is pragmatic which is only partly true. Like all of the signs of the zodiac there are positive and less than positive aspects. I’m not saying that being practical is not a positive – that is far from the truth. What I am saying is that Taurus is ruled by Venus planet of love and money. So as you can see Taurus is not only practical but strives for the good things in life – don’t you agree?

Anyway, the downside of the Taurus moon is that food is on the agenda – the upside is that nurturing oneself is a priority – that is certainly not bad in my books.

Justice is purely the intellectual perspective on all things. Athena does not view her realm from an emotional point of vie. The Sun is the golden orb of magic. The golden beams are the giver of life and energy. The Fool is the champion for all things new – the experiences of the past are resolved and concluded – the future is uncertain but the dream is the undercoat on our canvas – the primer before the brush strokes take us into reality.

We have arrived in our weekend retreat. It is an extremely comfortable and delightful location. There is magic all around us – the exquisite moment of now is the cauldron of creation. Each breath and blink of our existence revitalises the magic in our secret realm of hopes and dreams.

There is magic all around us – all we have to do is recognise the true value of this energy, collect the potion and stir it into our scrying mirror. Feast on the creation of your imagination.

Love, Peace and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

You’ve got the whole world


My consciousness of the Sprit within me as my unlimited source is the Divine Power to restore the years the locusts have eaten, to make all things new, to lift me up to the High Road of Abundant prosperity. This awareness, understanding and knowledge of Spirit appears as every visible form and experience that I could possibly desire.

The Aries Moon combines nicely for a number eight day. This is a great moment in our numerological cycle to be ambitious – yes go for success in all things. It is also a good day to go to the gym or have a health check up. You often receive unexpected money. Help someone less fortunate. Success is already yours now. I am the benevolent Director of my kingdom I have created. The more I help others the more I prosper and grow. Where I am – everybody wins.

I am still carrying the after effects of my un-wellness. Yesterday was a day of rest and recovery. Recovery is not a goal but a process. I am still in the cycle. I had lots of wonderful time to reflect on where I am and where I want to go. It was a beneficial healing interlude.

Today I will capture the energy of the Aires Moon and go back to work. I’ve got a weekend of rest and recuperation planned with someone wonderful. There will be moments of art and creativity and culture. I am taking it slow but allowing the creativity to absorb me and take me on a journey of self recovery.

Justice stands for Truth and Integrity. Am I being honest with myself and will I appreciate the destination when I get there?

Wheel of Fortune rolls into my reading a portend of incredible opportunities rolling my way. Remain positive and focus on the route of manifestation.

The World is my oyster – but is there a pearl inside or a grain of sand irritated by the constant flushing of the sea? Some pearls are manufactured in a laboratory so does that make them any less precious?

Upon reflection I seek the truth to the disharmony in my body this week. Healing requires that you admit the truth about yourself. Is there someone I de-test or something I crave? Am I an addict? Or do I constantly evolve into a negative thought pattern naturally? Recognising our struggles is the fist step toward healing.

Honestly, my struggles at the moment are weight related. I am struggling with the fact that I am gaining weight and I do not like it. I know the pitfalls and I know where I am going wrong but I need to be strong and more focused. I will ask my Guides and Angels to help me. Be well and happy dear friends.

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Restoration


The Divine Consciousness that I am is forever expressing its true nature of Abundance. This is its responsibility, not mine. My only responsibility, it to be aware of this Truth. Therefore, I am totally confident in letting go and letting God appear as the abundant all- sufficiency in my life and affairs.

It is a number seven day of inner reflection. It is the day to look within. Be alone, at least part of the day. Be still. Read. Think. Affirmation: I look within and receive answers. I know whatever I want or need will always be there for me. I trust life to take care for me. The Power that supplies my breath will supply all else (just as easily or freely).

I intend to be alone today – well at least for a part of it. The numerological cycle has reflected the phase that I am in. I am unwell. I have a headache and sever sinusitis pain – even my lymphatics feel blocked and sore. Today I am taking time for me for some healing and rest-oration.

The Sun inspires me to a healing chamber. There is more to life that feeling lousy or unwell. Follow the brilliance of your life and you won’t be disappointed. Life is like an apple pie – sometimes you eat the apple and other times you get the cloves.

The Wheel of Fortune has a fair ground appeal – lights camera action – no seriously I am going back to bed. The Jupiterian loud speaker bellows – all aboard the Ferris wheel of changes – its time to leave the past behind. Seriously, the wheel signifies truth and expansion- I am ready to climb about and take the ride to a new location.

The Emperor is the King of the Mountain. He brandishes his golden staff and commands, “what are you doing down there? Lift up your head out of the mud and don’t delay – there are better opportunities if you climb to the summit – plus the air is fresher up here! Get out of the mud and keep climbing!”

Today, I will find ways to create balance in my life. I will cast all negativity in a positive light, and let go of any fears that block the flow of vital energy within my body, mind and spirit. To heal illness, I must begin by restoring balance. And that is what I intend to do. What about you?

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Attend to the needy


My inner supply instantly and constantly takes on form and experience according to my needs and desires, and as the Principle of Supply in action, it is impossible for me to have any needs or unfulfilled desires.

The Sun moves into Aquarius as we enter a number six day. Over the past four weeks the Sun has influenced our drive on the career highway, ambition round-a-bout and the pedestal of public recognition. Now with the influence of the water bearer our focus shifts from our personal goals and ambitions to a global village perspective. Humanity, friends and associations are key elements of the Aquarian solar visit.

The Hierophant is the wise counsellor in my morning spread. His wisdom is born of pain and coated with the inward philosophical discoveries. His pursuit is deep and unrelenting – his quest is never ending.

The Chariot invites me on bard – get moving woman its time to shake your bootee and escape to freedom – live the dream and repel everything else in between.

The Hermit is a quiet reminder of the importance of ritual, peace and prudence. His golden lantern beam leads me down the darkness of an unknown path. It is my inner realm – unchartered waters and beware – there are snags and logs up ahead. Shine you light, my Hermit guide and I will follow.

The Moon in Pisces is emerging from her dark fertile phase. She is reluctant to leave the watery haven of the Neptunian seclusion. She knows that tomorrow will take her into the fiery impatience of Aries. There will be no time to rest on her laurels.

The lunar cycle navigates each sign throughout the month. She spends two and sometimes two and a half days weaving her lunar magic into the emotional and social aspects of our lives. Today, she aligns with the Sun in Aquarius and requests that we consider those who are less fortunate than we are.

The joy of giving is a bountiful act. Happy is the one who attends to the needy. Consider how easily you are irritated by the needs of others. Give away some of your time or money, but not in a therapeutic sense. Attending to the needy also includes surprise acts of kindness.

As we give; we receive. Give of yourself generously and with love and your will receive the joy of peace, love and happiness in your heart. What a gift!

A fresh perspective


Money is not my supply. No person, place or condition is my supply. My awareness, understanding and knowledge of the all-providing activity of the Divine Mind within me are my supply. My consciousness of this Truth is unlimited; therefore, my supply is unlimited.

The Fool launches into a new phase with enthusiasm and optimism. Filled with the raw unbridled passion of a teenager he is on a mission of lust as he escapes the cave and embraces every opportunity as if it was his last.

Death hangs heavy in my spread this morning. Don’t be afraid to close the door behind you as you leave – just make sure you leave the key under the mat.

Apollo the Sun God strums his golden lyre – merriment and music are yours for the taking – open up your heart and my bounty will encompass the Divine expectation of your dreams.

The Empress is Mother Earth – she is at her most brilliant in this dry and drought-stricken land. Flowers of immense courage and resilient are scattered across her path – a reminder to stand tall and proud in our daily encounters.

It’s a number five day and surprises are on the horizon. Look your best – really dress up. Expect a good surprise. Promote and advertise yourself. “I welcome change and rejoice in the new.” Say it out loud.

There has been a distinct change in temperature over the past 24 hours. We have gone from extremely hot conditions to a chill in the air. I’m enjoying the coolness of the moment and feel comfortable in the radical shift in temperatures.

Sometimes radical shifts can bring pain into our hearts, bodies and minds. Pain is a touchstone of spiritual progress. Follow your pain as if it were a candle in the night, leading you to a place of decision. Clear choices can often heal your pain because they release your conflicts.

The days and weeks are flying past in this New Year. I keep my goals and wishes in the forefront of my mind. I am not debilitated or distracted by their presence instead focused on the intent. Today offers a fresh perspective on decisions. My eyes survey the panorama and I am alert to the possibilities. I am confident that I have the drive and will to succeed.

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

Never Never Land


Through my consciousness of my God Self, the Christ within, as my Source, I draw into my mind and feeling nature the very substance of Spirit. This substance is my supply, thus my consciousness of the Presence of God within me is my supply.

The Moon is in Pisces, the Peter Pan of the zodiac. This Neptunian Moon can take us to Never Never Land on a whim. Today the big news is of course that Jupiter (benefactor of the cosmos) has moved from Aquarius into Pisces. This move bodes well for Pisceans however we all will feel the changes of this illusive and spiritual planet. Perhaps it will encourage us to connect with our inner bohemian?

It’s a number four day time to work – ironically it is the first work day of the week, Monday. Monday is ruled by the Moon and this makes it quite difficult in the sense that the Moon relates to all things homey and a cozy relaxed feel and here we are ensconced in a new work week. No wonder there is a lot of Monday-it is?

Numerologically a number four day is about organisation and productivity – the colour is green and the jewel is jade.

The Lovers collaborate to ensure effective communication. They are balanced and joyous, spreading their wit ad charm around the world.

Death gallops into my spread to bring a culmination to my current phase. While the Devil snarls and snorts as he demands, “Relinquish the chains that hold you to your past! The Truth will set you free!”

The Tower represents the unexpected deliveries – roll with the scattering of lightning bolts peppering your values and beliefs – the barrage of strikes impede upon your demeanour but won’t change your destiny view.

Astrologically there are some big changes this week: Jupiter into Pisces and the Sun and Venus moves into Aquarius. Detachment is in the air. Detachment is a good practice especially when we become obsessed about a certain outcome. It’s a bit like if you love them set them free and if they come be then it is meant to be.

Changes above (cosmos) impact on us here on earth. If we resist these changes we can become blocked or stuck in negative thought patters or behaviours. Resisting change leads to illness. Accepting change brings about peace. Embrace the changes in your life. Release what you no longer need, and welcome the seeds of new experiences.

This is one of my most heartfelt philosophies. I keep a personal goals and wishes close to my heart and soul and continually work on them, everything else seems mutable, changeable and sometimes part of the stop and learn process of life. Once I’ve accomplished the lesson I pickup my certificate and move on. I look to the future with hope and promise. I am inclined to follow my golden compass within. Compass points to Never Never Land – see you there, soon!

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

Let go of time


I lift up my mind and heart to be aware, to understand, and to know that the Divine Presence I AM is the Source and Substance of all my good.

The Moon is in the Friendship oriented sign of Aquarius. Aquarius rules the 11th House of friend and associations. It is likely to be a light, airy and fun-filled day. The day is ripe for social networking and sharing some special moments with friends.

It’s a number three day – it’s party time! A day to have fun, laughs, sing and play. Express yourself. Experience the joy of living. Make others smile. Bless everyone and everything. Let your creativity express itself freely.

Affirmation: “I radiate joy and share it with others!” Joy flows through my veins and is expressed in every part of my being. I know my seeds are sprouting, and it is time for rejoicing. I am joyously exuberant and in harmony with all of my life. My life is a party to be experienced and shared with everyone I know. My creativity flows, and I give of it freely. I am beautiful. I am handsome. And everyone loves me. All is well in my world, and I share my feelings with others.

The Tower flaunts a reminder of the impact from others and their barbs and unexpected insults. We plant and implement a brilliant day but the lightning bolt out of the blue may disrupt the flow. Maintain your focus – live the dream!

Judgment heralds the concept of times changing. Saturn cowers beneath the Angels – herald the transformation and relinquish the outdated and outworn. I must enforce the reality of now and the importance of playing it real.

The Wheel of Fortune heralds a beneficial time. The cornucopia of abundance and good will flows through me. I am an open vessel for love, peace, brotherhood and the empowerment of humanity.

It is Sunday a day of rest and rejuvenation. I adore my weekends. I work hard at my job, my creative indulgences, my domestic commitments, my relationships and of course me.

Sunday is a day of reflection and healing – taking stock and planning my next phase. It is an easy-going day which aligns to the environment I am in – whether it is my home, my family or friends home I give of myself freely and make my healing journey a priority.

It is now two days after the new moon and Mercury has gone direct. I am mindful of the cosmic influences. Yesterday I did more clearing out in my office (under the auspicious influence of Judgment) with the packing up of journals which have been stored in my compactus. The journals spanned from 2007 – 2009. These books depict the creative journey I’ve undertaken on an emotive ride across intellectual boundaries and beyond. Of course my environment, hopes, wishes, desires and sometimes my tantrums are sprinkled throughout. I suppose they represent a primal documentary of my existence.

I have written diaries and journals for most of my life. It has been a cathartic process trying to untangle the fierce and sometimes emotional tsunamis of the Scorponic alchemy. I started a diary when I was seven years old. It was filled with the childish ramblings and immature attempts at poetry and prose. Now I believe I have matured to a more structured approach to my journals. Although, I must admit they can border on the childish ramblings at times.

Rain came to our drought-stricken plot of the ACT yesterday. Lightning and thunder blazed and boomed across the skies. It was exhilarating. The rain has nourished my plants and trees and this morning the garden responded with vibrancy and gratefulness.

Well, my cyber friends enjoy your day and let go of time. How much do you need to do today? Must you fill every moment to feel useful or productive? And how much of your life is directed by time? Answer these questions honestly – when you are ready 

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

A Pipeline of Wisdom and Knowledge


God is lavish, unfailing Abundance, the rich omnipresent substance of the Universe. This all-providing Source of infinite prosperity is individualised as me – the Reality of me.

We are down the final 10 days of our 40 day prosperity plan. Have you noticed any changes in your finances over the past 30 days? I have. Not only have I attracted more abundance into my life but my relationship with money is getting more and more respectful. I am constantly aware of the infinite source of abundance coming into my life – I hope it is working for you too! We will complete the next 10 days together and I will check back in with you at the end.

It’s an 11/2 personal day – a time to follow your star – leave commercialism behind you. The vibrations today are highly attuned and very spiritual. Your intuition is strong. Do not force anything.

This is a perfect moment for me to do some readings. I am ready to connect with the universe and bring the most appropriate messages through.

Death is the first card in my morning reading. I embrace this card as the harbinger of the old and unwanted. He is an austere presence in any reading but I feel attuned to his potent message. Leave behind what is not worthy to carry, child – your load will be lighter and brighter and you will be grateful to step lively into a new and sparkly future.

Judgement affirms this message of Death and asks for more. Shed the unwanted layers of yesterday. Prepare to step into the water for the rebirth. How can we be truly reborn when we are carrying the baggage from the past?

The star is naked and raw – the scars from the rebirth are etched into her psyche. She stands proudly on the stage of life – I’ve been stripped bare and yes I am exposed and yet all I desire is transparent.

Did we all get our wishes planted last night? I know I didn’t remind you as I was at my hairdressers being pampered. I took some pretty pink paper (paper I had meditated on and blessed with love and happiness). We wrote our new moon wish list together and have filed it away. Our ritual was exhilarating and we are both working toward the germination of those seeds. That you Marijana – you are the Goddess 

Today the domestics and a little play followed by some rest are the agenda for the day. While I am doing the basic tasks I will focus my mind on the thoughts, words and wishes I planted last night. To add energy to those seeds I will make sure that I feed those seeds with positive action everyday.

My garden bed glistens with hope. Without hope we live in desire. Ask yourself “what are my desires?” Then ask, “What are my genuine needs?” Discover how casually you desire things that have no real value for you. Then you’ll realise how easily you lose your power.”

Affirmation for today: I follow my inner star – I have a direct pipeline of wisdom and knowledge from the highest source. As I turn within, all the answers I seed are there for the finding. Every question I have is easily answered by my own inspiration. I inspire others. I am a shinning example of love and light. Today I sparkle and shine in a quiet and peaceful way.” Louise L Hay

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

Exuberance: the passion for life


I keep my mind and thoughts off “this world” and I place my entire focus on God within as the only Cause of my prosperity. I acknowledge the Inner Presence as the only activity in my financial affairs, as the substance of all things visible. I place my faith in the Principle of Abundance in action within me.

This afternoon (yesterday) at 5:11pm the New Moon is in Capricorn. Capricorn is the ruler of the 10th house of career, fame, public recognition, institutions and business. On a personal level Capricorn falls in our individual houses at this time. For Scorpios the New Moon will entice the third house of communication, the mind, intellect and short journeys. If you want to find out where you will experience this New Moon the visit Yasmin Boland (in Australia) site: at www.moonology.com.au . Of you can request a lunar return or transit chat which will give you a more specific reading.

Ironically, it is a number one day – time to begin. The colour is red and the jewell is ruby. Be independent. Do what you want to do. Go after things. Go to new places. Meet new people. Try out new ideas. Be original and creative and to tie in with the new moon – be ambitious.

A good affirmation for today would be, I open new doors to life”. Today is a glorious new day for me. And with the impact of the solar eclipse there will be a great deal of va voom attached.

I’m reading a great book entitled: Exuberance: The Passion for Life by Kay Redfield Jamison. It is absolutely delightful – she is the Queen of metaphor and a gifted story teller. Kay’s prose is intoxicating. Not only is the book entertaining it is enlightening.

The world is the first card for my morning reading. Venus winks seductively at this New Moon and coaxes the sea goat to ante up and shake his tail. Move out of that stagnant pool Sir Cappi and shake rattle and roll into a new realm.

The Sun promises a lust for life. Apollo strums his golden lyre and we become intoxicated with the best that life has to offer.

Justice promotes fairness and integrity – plant the seeds and goals with a loving heart and a honest mind. Forgive your enemies and embrace your friends – what more is there?

A cheerful expression brings joy to the heart, and good news gives health your bones. Here’s a task: be a bearer of only good news today. In living out this tasks note whether you find it difficult to maintain. And if so, discover why within yourself.

Life is such a gift. Scatter the joy of sunshine over your seeds and allow the fertiliser from the cosmos do the rest.

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

Tales of the unexpected…


When I am aware of the God-Self within me as my total fulfilment, I am totally fulfilled. I am not aware of this Truth. I have found the secret of life, and I relax in the knowledge that the Activity of Divine Abundance is eternally operating in my life. I simply have to be aware of the flow, the radiation, of that Creative Energy, which is continuously, easily and effortlessly pouring forth from my Divine Consciousness. I am now aware. I am now in the flow.

Mercury turns direct today – yippee! Also, the Sun sextiles Uranus (sort of sounds a little naughty doesn’t it?). So, this could literally turn out to be a day filled with tales of the unexpected. We are on the eve of the New Moon in Capricorn and the cosmos is ripe for a new and exciting phase.

The focus for a number nine day (today) is Humanity. A good manta is, “I am one with all of my life. The whole world is my family.” What was that song from Bandaid? Oh yes, “we are the world”. Anyway, it is time to be a humanitarian. Help everyone you can. Give something away. Be generous and kind. Clean out your closets and prepare for the new. Release what no longer benefits you albeit your thoughts, ideas, habits even the soggy relationships – yes, them too – they should all go – whoosh! Remember this is the eve of the New Moon so it is a good opportunity to consider your wish list for the coming months/years. And may I suggest, check it twice!

Strength is the courage to overcome the fears of my tomorrows. I am forever pushing forward with passion, drive and integrity. My courage is depicted by the determination of my inner guile and conviction that only the best will do! I am always optimistic.

The Sun shines on the new crop. The seeds are buried deep within my consciousness ready for plucking and choosing the right word at the perfect moment. Synchronicity takes hold and the seeds flow effortlessly toward the most fertile pastures. I anticipate their inception. I wait with sublime readiness.

The Moon casts a shadow over my reality – she has gone into her dark phase and is preparing to retreat into the most fertile of her cycle. Breathe deeply and think carefully for you must be specific in your wants and desires.

The mind and soul are rich cauldrons of creation. We are a part of the world – conjoined spiritually and emotionally. The world lives and breaths, and we can draw its spirit into us. Think rolling waves, warm sun, and wet grass from the earth, crowded elevator, busy streets, and birds singing.

Get into all the sensations of life today. You don’t need a lengthy meditation to connect to Nature – just draw it in. And expect the unexpected!

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Act now, Grasshopper


My consciousness of the Spirit within me as m unlimited Source is the Divine Power to restore the years the locusts have eaten, to make all things new, to lift me up to the High Road of abundant prosperity. This awareness, understanding and knowledge of Sprit appears as every visible form and experience that I could possibly desire.

A number eight day offers success in business. Ambition stirs within you. A big business day. Be an executive. Organise and reorganise. Use good judgement. Do all your financial and legal work. Best day for signing leases and contracts. Colours – beige/brown/pink and the jewell is diamond.

Numerologically, this number eight day promises to be an action packed day. Astrologically, the Sun and Venus sextile Uranus along with the Moon entering the most fertile day of the month – the sowing time is about to begin.

The Star, Magician and the Chariot swirl around in my subconscious emerging with messages, conspiring to conjure up an action-oriented day. Taking charge of the reigns is the only option while giving it my all. The culmination of events is now about to explode.

And what if they do? So what? It is a fertile time. It is a window of opportunity flung open allowing the fresh breeze of a new day whisk you away into a brand new compelling chapter.

The subtle energies of the day move the propeller of my plane. I am on the tarmac and the engine is idling. The Universe offers a wild card on Friday evening with the New Moon Solar eclipse. There is a stirring in the valley behind me and my focus is on the horizon. It’s not a long runway – just long enough to contemplate the incline of my actions.

I am cautious and specific with the script. The right words at the right time make all the difference to the finale. It’s a three act play and I am in the final act. Will it be a box office success? Or will it be a flop?

The power of our thoughts influences the outcomes of our actions. The individual epitomises the Universe. Where exactly does your influence on life end? You’ll never know the full power or consequences of your actions and choices. Enhance the whole of life today through your actions.

Consider this: I am powerful and prosperous. I am the executive of my life and affairs. I go from success to success. Now go out into the world and act on that affirmation, Grasshopper.

Peace, Love and Happiness

Look within…



The Divine Consciousness that I am is forever expressing its true nature of Abundance. This is its responsibility, not mine. My only responsibility is to be aware of this Truth. Therefore, I am totally confident in letting go and letting God appear as the abundant all sufficiency in my life and affairs.

A number seven day suggests that we should look within. Be alone, at least part of the day. Be still. Read. Listen to your inner soul.

The Hierophant represents the wounded part of our soul. A centaur of hope and love trots into our lives to carry us across the healing bridge.

The Magician lays out the tools of inspiration – choose one and you will be liberated – select all of them and you will reach Divine happiness.

The Moon shimmers in her final visit to Sagittarius for this lunar cycle. Loyalty, trust and creativity will make your day complete. Don’t fret there is more love than you can imagine.

All you need to do is look within. Love is a deep pool that never dries up. You have more than you can imagine. The only expectation you should have in giving to others is what you expect of yourself. That’s how you stay replenished!

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

In dreams I talk to you…


My inner supply instantly and constantly takes on form and experience according to my needs and desires, and as the Principle of Supply in action, it is impossible for me to have any needs or unfulfilled desires.

It’s a number six day – adjustment time. Take personal inventory. Look at your house. Could you make it more comfortable? Keeping in mind your house represents your soul. The colour for today is indigo (navy blue) and the jewels are: pearls, sapphires and lapis.

The Moon links with Saturn today establishing a round table for peace talks. It’s a good day to focus on healing from a compassionate heart and being open to collaboration.

The World is my oyster as I collect the offerings from the Universe. I am guided by Diving Light toward and new and magical horizon.

The Magician promises that the cauldron is brewing – the right ingredients are ready to conjure the most magical stew.

The Hanged Ma encourages me to hang in there. Don’t be despondent. The New Moon waits loaded with tiny miracles. The gear change is about to take place just strap on your seat belt and hold on tight.

My Dad came to visit me last night. In dream state we talked and talked. It was a healing visit with kind words and a congratulatory hug for a job well done.

The ambience of the morning has an electric feel. The musty moon day (Monday) is filled with flecks of magic.

In the background I can see Roy Orbison strumming his acoustic guitar singing, “In dreams”. He was one of my Dad’s favourite performers and I wonder if they’ve caught up on the other side.

The weekend was filled with nostalgia. There were interludes of tears connecting to the memory of George Harrison and Roy Orbison. I’ve re-visited the Travelling Wilbury’s journey. Even last night when an advertisement for Fred Hollows came on the TV I became misty and a little sad.

I was a little unsure as to why I cried intermittently over the weekend. I am not sad at the moment but the tears flowed none the less. Now that my dream has materialised I understand. Now I know that it was a prequel to the visit with my Dad. Thank you, Dad for dropping by. I miss you. And I love you, always!

Primarily our conversation focused on love and respect. He reminded me that before I can heal others I must heal myself first. Today, I will be mindful of how often I judge others. In recognising why I see others in a negative light, I will discover the fears that I need to heal in me.

So Be It!

Peace, Love and Happiness,

I welcome change and rejoice in the new


Money is not my supply. No person, place or condition is my supply. My awareness, understanding or knowledge of the all-providing activity of the Divine Mind within me is my supply. My consciousness of this Truth is unlimited and therefore my supply is unlimited.

It’s a number five day – a day of surprises – looking your best – get really dressed up and get out and look for the new. Positive change is in the air. Today you are free. Expect a good surprise. Do something different. Be flexible. Change your routine. The colour for today is blue. And the jewels are turquoise or aquamarine.

It is Sunday and the Moon is in Sagittarius. This freedom-loving fire sign leads out of the deep excavations of the Scorponic archaeological dig and encourages us to explore new and unchartered frontiers.

Desperate for changes and starving for truth I linger on the quest for liberation from my current situation. I am alert to the wonderful, positive surprises that benefit me in a delightful way. Here I am, world, open and receptive to all good, which I accept with joy and pleasure and most of all, gratitude.

The force of the Chariot pulls me in two directions. The turnstiles are fact approaching but I am assured that I have the reigns. I am in control. There is no fear just the vision of a new and exciting chapter just beyond the ridge. Do you want to join me? Well, hop on board!

The Magician flicks open the magic carpet and ushers me toward the multi-coloured rug. Step right this way, Child he coaxes with a wink and a smile. Without hesitation I climb on board – I don’t have a ticket or a guide just an open heart with no destination in mind.

Temperance beckons with her tales of foreign lands and philosophical seascapes. Expand your mind and flee the reality that exists in your mind. Adjust the channel of perception and clear the static from your view – the universe offers a multitude of opportunities just for you.

The day promises to be a day of weeding and cultivation. We are gardening this morning. There are a few weeks that need to be pulled and a fresh garden bed to be made. We have some new plants to place around the crouching Buddha – an offering of peace and love.

I am excited by the prospect of changing the garden ever so slightly. Still, it will be a different view. During the process of planting I intend to focus on the friendliness and compassion which cultivating a calm mind. This ensures the practice of the healing power of a compassionate mind.

Compassion and love fills my garden and the blossoms lay in way for the right nutrients to support their growth. In time I will rejoice in the new flower beds.

Have a joyful day!

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers

As tears go by…


Through consciousness of my God-Self, the Christ within, as my Source, I draw into my mind and feeling nature the very substance of Spirit This substance is my supply, thus my consciousness of the Presence of God within me is my supply.

The Moon lingers in the passionate embrace of Scorpio. She loves her fellow water sign – compatible easy-going and offering an intense hue to the start of the weekend. Of course she pouts seductively in the direction of the earthy Capricorn Sun. They are opposite ends of the spectrum (not direct opposites of course) with a supportive elements of earth and water or more appropriately rock and ocean.

It’s a number four day – it’s time to get up early – get those chores done. You’ll have lots of energy today. Get going on those projects. The colour for today is green. And the jewells are emerald and jade.

I’ve been in awe of the new music video clip from Marianne Faithful, as tears go by. The music video clip is a rendition of her classic 1960’s version. The clip was evocative offering juxtaposition between the reality of now and the exuberance of youth. There were some radical clips from yester-year inter-dispersed with the harsh reality of now. The messages were very moving and images reflective and explicit. Well done Goddess!

Justice is the first card of my morning spread. Athene is a “no muss; no fuss” kind of Goddess. Cut away the crap and focus on relevant aspects of your present – its gift really, isn’t it?

The Chariot gallops into my consciousness – take a left at your desired route and woohoo you are on the road to success. The road is changing. Are you up for the potholes and roundabouts? A crossroad appears a sign with multi directions depicting a myriad of destinations which way will I go?

The Hierophant counsels caution and a stoic warning of taking life too seriously. Sort of double standards – don’t you think?

Today is about work interlaced with play. Capture your inner child within. Life is a circle from childhood to childhood, which means a spiral of new beginnings. Relationships begin anew every day. Give your attention today to renewing a relationship, initiating another spiral of life that you share with someone.

Enjoy your day – go out and play but don’t forget to do your chores. Indulge life with passion and purpose and you won’t be disappointed.

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Eating according to the seasons


I am conscious of the Inner Presence of lavish abundance. I am conscious of the constant activity of this mind of infinite Prosperity. Therefore, my consciousness is filled with the Light of Truth.

It’s a number three day – party time! Laugh – have fun. All people are important. It’s a social day. Express yourself. Love everybody. Today is truly the joy of living. Look beautiful. Feel handsome. Experience the joy that is in you and radiate it all around you.

The Moon in Scorpio adds a touch of passion and truth. Mysterious and complex Scorpio signifies the deeper aspects of life. Some people say Scorpio is about the darkness whereas I prefer to see Scorpio as he discoverer of truth. Its all about perspective. I guess – isn’t it?

Talk about truth. I face the scales this morning after the Christmas and New Year feasting – not that is some scary truth. Time to get back to my wellness kick and embrace the healthy life-style I’ve promised myself.

I intend to engage with a take charge strategy and collaborate with Saturn over my ascendant.

I plan to eat according to the season. Our body knows that all things have their seasons. The Spirit has its season too – summer is for light and easy. Bring it on!

Peace, Love and Happiness,

I follow my inner star


I lift my mind and heart to be aware, to understand, and to know that the Divine Presence I AM is the Source and Substance of all my good.

Today is an 11/2 day – a master number day. Essentially it is a day to follow your inner star. Your intuition is strong. Do not force anything. Be silent. Keep the peace. Let the day flow and be on time.

The Devil snarls as I break free of the oppression of my fear. I am not afraid, instead gracious while seeking a period in solitary confinement. Alone, I allow my mind to wander where it chooses to go – the avenues and highways of my imagination are fertile and are thriving.

The Tower is representative of my beliefs and values – they are pitched toward the heavens and do not waiver. The lightning bolts are the barbs out of the blue. My Teflon armour deflects them as I float along the corridor of no regrets.

Strength is my saviour. I am resilient and adaptable – willing to concede just to get along – for now.

The Moon is in Libra and Athena stands for Justice and being resolute regarding excesses of any kind. Don’t tip the scales otherwise you’ll be tossed into the back blocks of your mind. See the light and gravitate to the light.

Whatever is exposed to the light itself becomes light. Invoke Divine light to shine within you and reach into your shadow areas. Allow the healing power of this Light to dissolve all that wounds your spirit, and so restore your health.

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Endings and beginnings – a new sunrise


God is lavish, unfailing Abundance, the rich, omnipresent substance of the Universe. This all-providing Source of infinite prosperity is individualised as me – the Reality of me.

The morning is fresh and clean. The crow squawks his mournful song outside my window. It’s a 10/1 day – endings and beginnings and I am reminded of the cycle of life.

I look outside my bedroom window and see a few renegade pansies that have jumped out of the centre garden and made their presence known. I know their spirit – it is inspiring to see – a note to self – we can make our own way in a spot that suits us rather than stay with the group inside the fence.

Nature has a way of inspiring us, I believe. Sounds, smells and tiny demonstrations of independence give us hope. Hope is nature’s way of enabling us to survive so that we can discover nature itself. For this day, acknowledge the restoring power of hope. Direct that power to bless all that needs healing in your life, including your negative attributes and disappointments.

I constantly align myself with this healing principle – it gives me a light to lead me out of the maze of my emotional realm.

Another beacon is my subconscious and today the pictures tell a revealing story.

The wheel of fortune is a bright shinny disc spinning toward a new destiny.

The High Priestess reminds me of my potent intuition. She is a mega-source of inspiration.

Temperance is the ultimate destination – seeking balance and truth in all situations not squandering a moment on the minute details of regret instead focusing on the horizon and the exquisite display of the birth of a new brilliant day.

Don’t delay – make your way toward a new path of comfort and ease. If its not working for you then shed that garbage and move on with the beat of a distant drum. Life is too short to be stick in the misery of the unacceptable. The Moon in Libra inspires the brightest outcome for you and me.

A gentle breeze coaxes me to begin again – fresh and alert for the new-ness of the number one day ahead.

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Back to work!


I keep my mind and thoughts off “this world” and I place my entire focus on God within as the only Cause of my prosperity. I acknowledge the Inner Presence as the only activity in my financial affairs, as the substance of all things visible. I place my faith in the Principle of Abundance in action within me.

The Moon in Virgo supports a back to work mantra. Ritual and a sense of purpose are great motivators – I am determined to make this year a different year in so many ways. Each step will be a positive step forward – my outlook is different – shifting all the time and I am confident that the outcome will be different. The initial phase of course is my thoughts and words.

The eclipse next week highlights the mind zone of my chart. I am excited and can’t wait for the changes. Stay tuned.

As I begin to envisage a positive horizon I am prompted to sit back and be grounded in the moment. It’s okay to want a different year and outcomes but is also important that we do not miss the moment of now!

Death emerges from my subconscious and affirms the end of a phase. The trumpets have sounded the last rites on a life that no longer fits.

The hanged man promises that sacrifices made will reap the rewards I deserve. Just hang in there and take your lessons with a spoonful of sugar.

The world is my salvation. A phase ends and a new abundant and positive chapter begins. It’s a new course – set the navigator for the most appropriate route then sit back and relax allow the vehicle to take you on cruise control.

It’s a number nine day of empowerment and resolution. Endings that are necessary are demanding my attention – deal or no deal is the motto of the moment.

I am inclined to relinquish the need to understand the secrets of the universe but simply o know that what this moment means. It’s easy to get lost in endless speculation, so today; I release the need to know why things happen as they do. Instead, I ask for the insight to recognise what I am meant to learn.

Prometheus, take me to the tree of life and let’s hang out for a while. Help me if you can I’m feeling down, and I do appreciate you being round. Help me get my feet back on the ground – please, please help me!

Peace, Love and Happiness,

Julia Ashton-Sayers
