The Moon is Void of Course today (October 8) at 10:20 AM (Eastern) until October 9 at 7:44 AM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Aries. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
When the Moon is in Aries, it can be a very emotional time. You will feel a lot of enthusiasm and you can feel a real urge to do new things. This is a good time to think about new projects, renovations, etc., just wait until the Moon has moved out of Void of Course to make any final decisions. It’s possible for you to be more impulsive, but also very independent.
The Aries moon deeply affects the subconscious, so this is a very good time to go within. A good time to meditate, do yoga, anything that makes you feel more connected to the higher part of yourself. Aries also affects the workplace, so it is a good time to think about future projects, just don’t make final decisions. You might also find yourself tempted to make rash decisions during this time, so be on the look-out for that. Aries also stimulates the metabolism, so it’s a very good time to do physical exercise, just be careful to not over-do. If you are feeling frustration during this time, just take some deep breaths and know that this too shall pass!
And always remember, Astrology and other tools are simply that – tools. It’s good information to have, but it does not mean that this is the determining factor or controlling your life. We all have free will in all the choices that we make. I like to look at it as good information that can be transcended.

The Moon is Void of Course today (October 6) at 3:38 PM (Eastern) until October 7 at 6:07 AM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Pisces. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
When the Moon is in Pisces, it is an incredible time for deep spirituality, deep emotions and deep intuition. You will feel very sensitive during this time and it’s important to not allow those emotions and sensitivities to tip into despair, as you can utilize this time to your advantage by going within.
By doing so, you can receive incredible insights as the past and present seem to merge together. Your imagination and dreams will be very strong during this time. If you find yourself leaning towards negative thoughts during this time, stay away from alcohol or drugs, as this time fuels the energy of addiction. On the other hand, it can be an incredibly creative time, especially for poetry, music, painting, etc. If you do work or activities that require concentration, be extra careful. The risk of fungal diseases is higher now; avoid surgery of the feet.This is one of the most mystical times – so take good advantage of that.

I love cleaning closets. I love cleaning drawers. I love getting rid of things that no longer feel wonderful or don’t feel like they’re a part of my life anymore.
I spent this past week going through my closet, moving out the summer clothes and bringing in the winter clothes. Hollin, one of our Retreat Coordinators at Sedona Soul Adventures who has worked for me for years, came over to help me. It felt so good to move all that energy around. It was so funny, I had stories about some of my clothes and some of my shoes and some of my purses and we were laughing so much. It’s so amazing how these things are such a part of our lives, a part of our energy. Just remembering something that happened when I was wearing a particular outfit brings back these floods of memories. As we made a pile of things to take to Goodwill, suddenly my sweet dog Daisy plopped down on the clothes and buried her nose in them. I know she was feeling the energy of them.
But the best part of it is the feeling when it’s all cleared out. When we’re feeling fresh and in a new place. Each morning since then I walk into the closet and I just feel good. The old stuff is out, I put some new stuff in a place where I look at it each morning and it reminds me of how our lives can be renewed. The simplest thing becomes a renewal.
I was talking to Hollin yesterday and she said I inspired her to clean out her own closets! That energy of moving out the old baggage and moving into the energy of renewal is contagious cuz it just feels so darn good.
I can’t think of a better way to clear out the old stuff and dump the emotional baggage than by coming to Sedona and doing a Soul Adventure. This week (as I was cleaning) I came across a file folder I had forgotten about that was filled with cards I’ve received from people thanking me for their Soul Adventure and how it’s changed their lives. It still amazes me even after all these years and all that has taken place. So what about you? Are you ready to re-set and re-wire your life? Are you ready to have your heart feel light as a feather? Are you ready to become a more evolved version of yourself? If so, don’t wait any longer to come into that peace, serenity and Pure bliss that Guy talks about (I love how he capitalized Pure!). Call us. Call and speak with an Angel Guide and they’ll design the perfect retreat for you (or both of you, if it’s a couple).
Call us toll free at 1-877-204-3664 (US and Canada) or Click Here and one of our Angel Guides will call you. For our friends outside the US and Canada call 001 928-204-5988 to speak to one of our Angel Guides or click here and we’ll call you.
Here’s wishing you a week filled with Pure bliss!

The Moon is Void of Course today (October 4) at 2:32 PM (Eastern) until October 5 at 5:24 AM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Aquarius. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
When the Moon is in Aquarius, you will feel an interest in new things, far out things. There is a sense of emotional detachment during this time. There is more of a focus on ideas and intellectual pursuits than on emotional connection. You may feel a bit more blunt during this period and other people may be more blunt with you. This could actually cause tenseness in your relationships, so be aware of that. For most people during this time, friends become more important than family. More focus might be placed on people in general as opposed to individuals (social consciousness).
This is a good time for people working with technology, with electricity and electronics and other types of science. New and original (even unconventional) ideas can best be fostered during this time. This is a very good time to do things to strengthen your cardio-vascular system. Be careful with your joints, veins and eyes. Be careful when handling electrical appliances. This is an excellent time for meeting with groups or in clubs and a wonderful time to contemplate (but not decide on) a new adventure in your life.
And always remember, Astrology and other tools are simply that – tools. It’s good information to have, but it does not mean that this is the determining factor or controlling your life. We all have free will in all the choices that we make. I like to look at it as good information that can be transcended.

The Moon is Void of Course today (October 2) at 12:18 PM (Eastern) until October 3 at 4:00 AM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Capricorn. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
When the Moon is in Capricorn it’s a time of being dependable and following through. People will be working harder and it’s a wonderful time to really utilize your concentration and your focus. Capricorn is continually striving for financial security, so making efforts along that line will be very good. People may seem a little more stern during this time (as they are focused on their own concentrated efforts). But within the family, this is a time that brings out familial connection.
It’s a very good time to begin construction or to sell real estate and it’s a very good time for communication with influential people.
Be careful of your knees during this time. Also, be careful to not expose yourself to colds. This is also a time when skin ailments can flare up. It is a very good time to do anything that involves really utilizing your will power.
And always remember, Astrology and other tools are simply that – tools. It’s good information to have, but it does not mean that this is the determining factor or controlling your life. We all have free will in all the choices that we make. I like to look at it as good information that can be transcended.

The Moon is Void of Course today (September 29) at 11:29 PM (Eastern) until October 1 at 12:41 AM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Sagittarius. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
When the Moon is in Sagittarius it is a time of enthusiasm, idealism, generosity and it ignites desires for adventure and travel. People are generally very expansive during this time and it’s also a time that brings out our desire for independence. For work, this is a wonderful time for expansion, especially if your work has to do with studying, teaching, anything having to do with travel or foreign lands. It’s also a wonderful time to attend workshops or seminars or for any type of outdoor recreation.
Sagittarius rules the lungs, so be very careful of your lungs and respiratory system. This is not a good time for medical procedures that involve the lungs, but a wonderful time to use breath as a healing practice. It’s also not a good time to start building or construction. Also be on the look-out for people being untruthful with you (including stealing from you) and be careful to not over-indulge in gambling. If you are feeling restless, just take a breath and remember, “this too shall pass”.
And always remember, Astrology and other tools are simply that – tools. It’s good information to have, but it does not mean that this is the determining factor or controlling your life.

Each year on the June 21 Solstice I wake up before dawn, wash my face, brush my teeth, put on my hiking shoes and (along with the rest of our group), take the winding road to Machu Picchu where we do a sunrise ceremony that is amazing and incredible. As Jorge Luis Delgado (our shaman and guide) says, it is “extraordinary”.
Jorge loves the word “extraordinary”. He is one of the most amazing teachers I know and he speaks English very well, and also speaks Spanish and Quecha (the indigenous language of his home, Lake Titicaca), and he loves talking about this English word. He loves talking about what a paradox this word is. “Ordinary” means “usual, normal, standard, regular, routine”. So technically, you would think that “extra-ordinary” should mean being a little extra ordinary. Just a little more usual, typical or normal. But that’s not what it means at all. Extraordinary means “remarkable, astounding, astonishing, amazing, unbelievable, phenomenal”. So isn’t it remarkable and astounding what happens when you put these two very common words together?
In the same way, I wake up each June 21 and do the usual stuff — wash my face, brush my teeth, eat some eggs, drink some tea — then I’m suddenly transported to this mystical place, connecting with the energy of All That Is in ways that have truly transformed my life (and sometimes have been almost unbelievable). And we can have things like that all the time. We just have to add a little extra into the ordinary, do something to raise ourselves out of the humdrum, out of the habitual, out of the normal. As I have heard Jorge say many times, “it just takes a little extra for our lives to be extraordinary”.
Debra & Jorge Luis at Machu Picchu, Solstice, 2014
And he’s so right. It doesn’t take much. I think it begins quite simply with the desire and conscious awareness to come out of the ordinary, the habitual. Are there parts of your life that you’re living on auto-pilot? Where you’re living your life by default? What is some extra thing you could do to raise your life out of the ordinary and the usual?
Anything we do that brings us into deeper connection with that Highest part of ourselves has the power to bring us automatically into the extraordinary. Meditating, praying, looking at the beautiful blue sky, petting our dog, appreciating how beautiful life can be, are all things that can bring us into that feeling of the extraordinary in an instant. Use that. Cultivate it. Once you have the feeling of the extraordinary, you will want more of it.
The Moon is Void of Course today (September 26) at 8:39 AM (Eastern) until September 26 at 10:29 AM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Libra. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
When the Moon is in Libra, we have a deep desire for harmony and balance and to be in right relationship. This includes all relationships – love, work, friends, family. It is usually a good time for tact and impartiality, as people are seeing both sides of an issue. We have a real desire to connect and to be in partnership. It is a good time to work out existing problems.
This can be a time when emotions are expressed very freely. This is typically a time when it is very difficult to make decisions, so just decide not to make any decisions, especially because the Moon is Void of Course! Now is a very auspicious time for work, especially in those areas where teamwork is required. This period is especially auspicious for those in the artistic fields because this is a time of heightened sensitivity to beauty and aesthetics.
It is also a good time for the work of psychologists and attorneys because of the craving for balance and justice. Be very careful with your spine, waist, adrenal glands and the kidneys and it’s a good time to avoid surgery in those areas. Enjoy this time of balance!
And always remember, Astrology and other tools are simply that – tools. It’s good information to have, but it does not mean that this is the determining factor or controlling your life. We all have free will in all the choices that we make. I like to look at it as good information that can be transcended.

The Moon is Void of Course today (September 23) at 8:15 AM (Eastern) until September 23 at 11:59 PM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Virgo. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
Virgo is very detailed oriented and is the sign that is the most critical and judgmental. But Virgos are also very helpful and very intelligent, so utilize this energy wisely.
It is a wonderful time for making lists and organizing things. It’s an especially good time for cleaning anything out. Clear your home of anything no longer needed or useful, clean your mind of any thoughts or beliefs that are no longer serving you and clean your body so that it feels the way you want it to feel. Virgo rules the intestines, so it’s a wonderful time for cleansing.
It is a good time to really look at and reflect on the details of your life. It is not a good time to discuss your performance or merits in your job or in a relationship, as people will tend to be more critical during this time. This is a time when you will feel more of a desire to help other people and other people will feel a desire to help you. What a win-win!
And always remember, Astrology and other tools are simply that – tools. It’s good information to have, but it does not mean that this is the determining factor or controlling your life.

From Debra
“In Praise of….Feeling Like a Million Bucks”
After our newsletter about the Significance of 12 a few weeks ago, I got so many messages from people about how numbers are such a huge part of their life. I know for me, I love it when I suddenly look up and it’s 12:34 on the clock. It always reminds me of 1-2-3-4, meaning life can just be so simple, just 1-2-3-4. Or if it’s 11:11, that’s always a wonderful good luck omen for me.
And think of the ways we talk about numbers, all of the sayings that include numbers. We feel like “a million bucks” or “I’m putting in my 2 cents”, “it takes two”, “three strikes you’re out”, “a bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush”, “all for one and one for all”. I love the Beatles song where they say I love you “Eight Days A Week”. Numbers can have such huge significance in our lives if we become conscious of them.
So I want to talk to you in praise of feeling like a million bucks. In my life there have been times when I’ve felt like 2 cents and there have been times when I’ve felt like a million bucks. And I must say, feeling like a million bucks definitely wins out. Don’t you just love that expression? Doesn’t it just say it all?
For me, feeling like a million bucks really means operating from connection. Connection on all the levels — physical, mental, emotional, spiritual. When I’m in disconnection on any one of those levels, when all the spark plugs aren’t firing, it just feels terrible. And it is just like an engine — we can function, but just not very well.
But when the connection is there on all the levels, everything in our lives happen in a wonderful and easy way. Everything is better. Everything is smoother. Things happen — I’m excited and passionate. I’m feeling like a million bucks.
It took me a long time to realize that it was the connection that was doing it. I mistakenly thought for many years that feeling this way (or not feeling this way) had to do with things happening on the outside. When something that I labeled “good” would happen, then I could feel like a million bucks, although that wouldn’t always happen. And if something “bad” happened, it simply wasn’t possible for me to feel like a million bucks, or so I told myself. When I finally realized that it wasn’t about the things outside myself, that it was all about me maintaining my own connection, that’s when everything changed.
And the good part about it (as my dad would say), is that when you figure out how to maintain that connection, it pretty much doesn’t matter what happens to you on the outside, that centeredness, that experience of maintaining your connection can keep you feeling like a million bucks most of the time. Will there ever be things that will throw you off? Yes. Are there things that throw me off? Yes — I’m human. But I also know I have the tools to bring myself back into the energy of feeling like a million bucks when I choose to do so.
So if you’re not feeling like a million bucks and you’d like to and like to have tools to keep you there, please call us and come and do a Sedona Soul Adventures retreat. Call and speak with an Angel Guide and they’ll design the perfect retreat for you (or both of you, if it’s a couple).
