Shoot for the Stars in Everything you do
by Astro-gal Lynette Elizabeth Corsten
In life, everyone needs to understand that everything we feel, think, and do stays in a positive energy field. Therefore it doesn’t matter if everything you do is perfect, just strive to achieve your full potential. On “astrological down days”, you need to keep this perspective in mind.
As an astrologer, medium, and Reiki master teacher, I too strive daily to work at keeping my own life joyful and positive. As most of us have experienced, many of my lessons came early in life. My shaman grandmother who was a medium and at times predicted the future was my mentor. Her legacy continues today through me by my ongoing passion for astrology.
Over the years, I have built a very large client base, which is located all over the world. I consult regularly in person, telephone, and by email. As a side-note I receive calls when the planets are either aligned or not. People have many decisions to make in life, and astrological charts can help them with these decisions. These charts are a snapshot of the universe at your given moment in time. When you need to make that all important decision, this will provide you your much needed perspective.
I consult, lecture, and enjoy giving readings at individual’s homes. My T.V. show, “Insightful Happenings with Lynette”, began on public access television in 1996, and has many varying formats. At times I interview people who share the same spiritual circles as I such as mediums and healers. My favorite aspect of the show is when I open up the telephone lines, and people call in to ask questions. The majority of individuals, who call in, are in need of assistance with something in their life.
Although my plate is full, I realized that many of my clients needed something additional. I decided to expand my endeavors a few years ago and I now sell designer clothing and accessories. Many of my pieces incorporate products for the metaphysical shopper. These product lines include gemstones, hand-made chakra bracelets, spiritual reading material, cards, and numerous one-of-a-kind pieces. My products are available whenever I attend conferences and business meetings on the road.
Now let’s look toward the Stars.
Most people have heard about the planet Mercury being in retrograde, a phenomenon whereby the planet Earth rotates backwards for three weeks in different astrological signs throughout the year. During 2009, Mercury will rotate backwards from January 9 through February 2. The signs of Virgo, Gemini, Aquarius, and Capricorn will be planting seeds concerning money, friendships, business, and organization. After February 2nd, Mercury returns to a direct motion and everything will start to correct itself.
A second Mercury in retrograde starts May 5 and runs to May 31. The signs of Virgo, Gemini, and Taurus will experience slowdowns in the work arena, finances, and correspondence breakdowns. Banking should improve after May 31st when Mercury goes in a direct motion.
The last Mercury retrograde for 2009 begins September 5 running through September 30th. The signs of Virgo, Gemini, and Libra will learn the art of detachment in all relationships. Due to this last retrograde the work cycle and economy could change based on the highs and lows of the planets.
Starting in November of 2008, the planet Pluto is in Capricorn and its ruler-ship is Saturn. This is a new fourteen year cycle for us that will prove to be colder and snowier than in years passed. Pluto’s job is to make change and breaks everything down so it can be transformed and Capricorn’s ruler-ship is to build things up in government, reorganization, and mega business. This proves to be difficult for people because most of us don’t like change. The initial breakdown will take about 2 – 3 years, with the build-up following for another 12 or so years.
The planet Saturn is in the sign of Virgo for one more year, and you should be thankful for this. It will bring recovery to the workforce, service industries, science, medicine, and the communication fields.
The sign Aquarius is being highlighted this year, and will have the most dramatic changes. Family will give us a sense of security due to all of the eclipses occurring during 2009. Not only do we have our own individual charts, but our country does as well. July 4th 1776 is our country’s birth chart, which helps us to evaluate what will happen to us in the future.
Our FUTURE will look bright when you follow the stars.
