The Moon is Void of Course today (January 25) from 8:55 AM (Eastern) to 10:13 PM (Eastern) and the Moon is in Scorpio. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
The Moon in Scorpio brings out deep emotions and also connects with our intuition and the unknown. It is a very good time to activate deeper levels of your consciousness and to access deeper levels of your intuition.
Scorpio is a very sexual sign, so it is a good idea to avoid sexual entanglements, but it can be a wonderful time to connect on a deeper level emotionally with your Beloved. Because emotions can be so strong and intense during this time, it’s a good idea to avoid family gatherings, especially where they may turn volatile. In work, Scorpio is a wonderful time for deep focus and concentration of the mind. It’s a very auspicious time for psychologists and psychiatrists and for people who work with the sciences, because of this focus on concentration of the mind. Be very careful of over-indulging in food or alcohol and be mindful of caring for the sexual organs, endocrine system and the large intestine. Best to avoid surgery of these areas during this time. But remember that Scorpio is a very sexy sign, so have some fun!
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.

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!

The Moon is Void of Course today from 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!

The Moon is Void of Course today from and the Moon is in Leo. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
Leo is the lion and during this time we will feel strong and confident. We will have a desire to feel beautiful and to be perceived as beautiful. Our inner child is connected with the Leo Moon, so it is a wonderful time to love ourselves a little more deeply.
This is a time when creativity will really flow, so do everything you can to nurture that. A wonderful time not only for creative pursuits, but creative thinking. Leo (and the Sun) always want to be the center of attention, so resist the misconception that “everything revolves around you”. It’s a wonderful time for parties and celebrations. Be especially careful of your heart and spine at this time.
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.

Weather-related stress is real and can tax your body – Supplements can help
Isn’t it interesting how you keep busy and stay active until 9 or 10 p.m., even having dinner that late, in the summer months? But in the dead of winter, you put on your comfy pants, eat something hearty and hunker down in bed by 8 p.m.?
While we have already discussed ways to embrace a decline in mood and motivation, it might help to understand what really happens to your body in winter and how colder, darker days can affect your system.
There is science behind why it is more difficult to practice positive thinking and get regular exercise during January and February, especially if you live near a large body of water that creates cloud cover or produces lake effect snow. The same can be said if you live near or north of the 45th parallel. Known as the halfway point between the Equator and the North Pole, at this latitude, most people experience full-blown winter with 15 or more hours of darkness, temperatures below freezing and regular snowfall.
Prolonged lack of sun and cold weather can tax your body like any other source of energy-depleting stress, similar to fighting with your kids, being at odds with your spouse or feeling overwhelmed at work.
It unknowingly strains your mood as well as your metabolism. As your energy dips, your desire for food increases because your body is trying to replenish it. Plus, the cold shifts your body into “hibernation metabolism” and triggers cravings for sweets and carbs.
Darkness also causes your body’s internal clock to get out of whack by throwing off melatonin production. Melatonin is the primary hormone that governs your body’s sleep cycle. Melatonin works at night, synchronizing repair and a restful night’s sleep. It helps restore your energy for the next day. When melatonin levels or its production go haywire, it can lead to sleepless nights and cause you to feel like you are always dragging.
People also underestimate the power of the sun! It produces vitamin D and photon energy – both critical to health and wellbeing. The sun interacts with skin to make vitamin D, a nutrient severely deficient in the winter in northern climates.
There is a good bit of evidence that vitamin D deficiency plays a role in seasonal affective disorder (SAD), which can contribute to fatigue, food cravings, and other symptoms of depression. Vitamin D also is vital to calcium metabolism, proper immunity, good mood, and breast and prostate health.
In addition, the sun also produces photon energy, which is stored in cell membranes. Your ability to store and use this energy is based on the amount of omega 3 fatty acids in your diet. Omega 3 is often lacking in Western diets and can lead to the winter blues. Several studies also have confirmed that people with higher blood levels of omega-3 fatty acids are less likely to report symptoms of depression.
Rather than run to the doctor for a prescription for antidepressants, or try to will your lethargy away, there are some ways to counteract the season’s drain on your energy with supplements:
• Melatonin is one of the best cures for regulating your sleep and maintaining melatonin levels
• Vitamin D3 can be consumed in the form of dietary supplements in locales where the sun is sparse
• B vitamins also can help control stress and depression
• Essential fatty acids like omega 3, daily DHA or Leptinal can help get photon energy to your brain
• Squalene also delivers oxygen and photon energy, reduces dry or cracking skin, and helps with circulation, especially people who feel cold in their extremities
• Regular exercise, especially weight training, helps build muscle, boost your resting metabolism and balance hormones
Consult a health food store or nutritionist for other herbal remedies, proper dosages and when is the best time to take supplements. Many vitamins help your body make and use energy and deliver lacking nutrients vital to brain function, mood, motivation and metabolism. Herbs and nutrients can make a difference!
But maybe you need more than that, like an escape from the chaos and confusion – or persistent cloudiness! Sedona Soul Adventures exists to help people like you learn how to access the wisdom of your own body and soul. Master teachers and healers will lead you to the heart of your own life and soul so you can see the sun again. Call now toll free 877-204-3664 or Click here and your Angel Guide will call you today!

Embrace winter’s lower energy – and the opportunity to rest
You’ve hit the hump, surviving the shortest, darkest days of the year.
The Dec. 21st winter solstice signifies a gradual shift to more daylight, but temperatures continue to fall and snow to mount through February in most of the United States and Canada. Spring doesn’t officially arrive until March 20, meaning it’s time to find creative ways to stay physically active and mentally resilient.
Due to the lack of sunlight, many people suffer from depression, or seasonal affective disorder (SAD), during the winter months. However, research reveals low energy during winter is routine. It’s normal and natural to experience a slight seasonal variance in mood and behavior.
So don’t beat yourself up if you aren’t going, going, going all the time. Embrace the opportunity to rest.
Some, such as followers of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), see decreased energy in wintertime as a reflection of the season’s energy. Rising (yang) and falling (yin) energies cycle as the seasons change. Winter’s yin energy is quiet, slow, and reflective. As winter turns to spring, the bright, expansive and upbeat yang energy ushers in a season of rebirth and renewal.
Nature and the animal kingdom express universal energies by their patterns and behaviors, which are mirrored in the energies of the human body and human experience. Just think of the animals that grow a winter coat, pack on extra weight and hibernate. Remember your perennials that go dormant underground, but will sprout through dirt in the spring.
The same goes for humans. The season’s energy invites us to enjoy extra sleep and to savor comfort foods. The colder, inclement weather forces us to spend most of our time indoors, which can be a good thing because it also causes us to slow down, self-reflect and ponder our life’s purpose.
Here are some ways to mindfully manage difficult emotions, excessive eating and low energy during these months:
• Use the down time to focus on healing, letting go and cultivating new connections
• Set aside time to practice conscious breathing
• Find ways to check in with yourself and quiet the mind
• Incorporate restorative activities into daily routines
• Light scented candles or enjoy a hot bath with essential oils
• Build a fire in an indoor fireplace; enjoy the sounds, smells, warmth and light it radiates
• Curl up and get lost in a book
• Invite bright colors into living spaces
• Try gentle yoga, t’ai chi or stretching; commit to some form of regular movement
• Listen to relaxing music or soothing nature sounds
• Take a nap or cuddle with your child or pet
• Participate in physical and social activities that bring joy and meaning
• Find ways to enjoy the outdoors: Go on a nature walk, try snowshoeing or take pictures
• Play or do something you did as a kid: Ice skating, building a snowman, sledding
• Appreciate the cycle of the seasons and life
Maybe your soul is in need of some Sedona sunlight. Or your body is calling out for a little pampering. Whether you need a holistic retreat, spa retreat, couples retreat or are seeking a spiritual awakening, Sedona Soul Adventures can custom design any retreat to meet your needs. Whatever kind of getaway you need to get your life back on track, we’ve got it! Call now toll free 877-204-3664 or Click here and your Angel Guide will call you today!
Don’t feel guilty about getting a little extra rest, being lazy and loafing on the weekends this winter. But if you are prone to being quiet, introverted and low energy, don’t let it lead to lethargy, never leaving the house, or too much introspection. Strive for balance, perspective and inner peace. If it helps, remember: “This, too, shall pass.”

The Moon is Void of Course today (January 12) at 11:22 am (Eastern) until January 13 at 7:25 pm (Eastern) and the Moon is in Gemini
The Moon is Void of Course today from and the Moon is in Gemini. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
Gemini is the symbol of the Twin, so during this time you (and everyone else) will see both sides of everything. This can be good in some situations, but it can lead to indecision and people changing their minds for seemingly no reason.
Gemini is the most intellectual and mental of the signs, so it is a good time for writing and communication. Also a good time to do research (but remember, don’t make any decisions right now based on your research). Also a very favorable time for negotiating. Because things can be so changeable, it is also a good time for people being flexible. An excellent time to take a short trip.
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.

The Moon is Void of Course today from and the Moon is in Taurus. Don’t make any important decisions while the Moon is Void of Course. For a deeper explanation of Moon Void of Course Click Here.
Taurus is the bull and although this is a time when people can be very stubborn, it is also a time when we are attracted to calm and comfort., especially in our homes and our surroundings. This is a time when we tend toward the familiar and any kind of drama (especially with family members) will be especially unwelcome.
This is a time when we yearn for and crave serenity and peace more than at any other time. It is also a time when we will feel more patient. Money and financial aspects are highlighted now, although when the Moon is Void of Course we may feel a need to possess things or possess other people. Be especially careful of your head or eyes. It’s not a good time to go to the dentist. Also, be very mindful of your ears and throat and your thyroid.

Sedona winters sparkle with sun and fun, making it a great time to visit
No matter when you visit Sedona, the incredibly beautiful red rock formations and energy vortexes are ever present. But there are several perks to visiting in winter: Fewer tourists, off-season lodging rates and pleasant weather. Situated in the high desert under the towering southwestern rim of the vast Colorado Plateau, at an elevation of 4,500 feet, Sedona has a temperate, semi-arid climate, with mild winters, abundant sunshine and clean air. High temperatures average around 60 in February and March. You can go out with a light jacket and still enjoy hiking, biking, or visiting the energy vortex sites. Yet, you might be lucky enough to experience a fresh snowfall before it melts. This picturesque town, with a population of around 12,000, is surrounded by red rock monoliths named Coffeepot, Cathedral and Thunder Mountain and serves as a four-season playground for visitors. It draws spiritual seekers, metaphysical followers, outdoor enthusiasts, and tourists interested in history, archaeology, arts and culture. The city also hosts some big events in the winter, which you could plan your Sedona Soul Adventures customized spiritual retreat around:
• Sedona Marathon Event, Feb. 1: For the 9th year, more than 2,500 runners will participate in 5K, 10K, half or full Marathon races, taking participants through the scenic Coconino National Forest District, known for its magical red rock formations, and through the city.
• Sedona Yoga Festival, Feb. 6 – 10: With a focus on yoga and expanding consciousness, this multi-venue event offers three days of yoga and kirtan.
• 20th annual Sedona International Film Festival, Feb. 22 – March 2: The nine-day festival features more than 150 films from around the world, including features, documentaries, shorts and animation, and includes workshops, panel discussion and filmmaker conversations. The Special Guest this year is Susan Sarandon.
There are so many options when considering Sedona as a vacation destination. Maybe you want to pair a spiritual retreat with a short ski weekend in Flagstaff or a visit to the Grand Canyon or you are just looking for a winter getaway in a sunny locale or a unique Valentine’s Day escape where you can reconnect with your partner.
Sedona Soul Adventures specializes in couples’ retreats by putting together a blissfully private retreat for two. Our couples’ retreats ensure you’ll meet one-on-one (or two-on-one) with the master healers and teachers of Sedona. As you relax into their loving care, you’ll feel the tensions and resentments melt away.
Natural landmarks aside, you’ll also find world-class lodging, dining, shopping and spiritual healers. We are proud to say that is one thing that makes Sedona Soul Adventures stand out: Our practitioners are the best Sedona has to offer. All of them have been called to Sedona to do their sacred work, some from as far away as Germany and Holland. They are Sedona’s most advanced spiritual guides, healers, intuitives, psychics, body workers and energy workers.
Whether you are seeking a return to wellness, peace with your partner, or insights on how to heal hurts from your past, we can help. Call now toll free 877-204-3664 or Click here and your Angel Guide will call you today!

Commit to Living Deliberately, Living Deeply in the New Year
The gifts have been opened. A month of celebrating has come to an end. And the bills from all the entertaining and gift-giving, or the regular bills you put off to please your children or put on appearances, may be starting to roll in.
Kudos to you if you buy things on a cash-only basis. But sadly, debt is a dirty little secret most people are carrying – a burden that is likely weighing you down, creating problems in your relationships, and making you feel like you are perpetually living a lie. Being a slave to credit cards and other payments can feel like a noose around your neck.
Rather than harp on debt and make you feel worse, the focus of this post is to get you thinking about how you can begin to live more deliberately in 2014. Often, debt is a manifestation of a deeper problem. It’s like any other vice or addiction, or having an affair, or secretly gorging yourself at night. Maybe you have been trying to mask feelings of unworthiness or unhappiness, or you have some need to keep up with the Joneses, or shopping gives you a temporary “high” – like an alcoholic taking a drink or a drug addict taking a hit.
What does it mean to live deliberately? It means making conscious choices, once you have carefully considered the pros and cons. It means you stand in your truth and set limits with yourself and others. You don’t give your kids everything they want out of guilt, realizing they can handle the word “no” and you are preventing them from growing up to be self-entitled, superficial, spoiled adults.
You think about the consequences of your decisions. You stop living on autopilot or mindlessly paying with your credit card and quit buying things you don’t need to temporarily feel better. You clear out the clutter – mentally and spatially – knowing less is more when it comes to possessions that matter and negativity clogs your creativity. You get clear about your income versus expenses and figure out ways to cut costs and start living within your means. You save for what you want, and then decide if you really want it when it comes time to pull out those hard-earned greenbacks.
Living consciously means being fully, presently aware. If you buy a new car or a big house, you understand the yin and yang trade-offs before ever signing the loan. Any choice we make has opposite effects – one positive and one negative. The yin of a big house is it’s spacious, comfortable, impressive and likely in a safer neighborhood. The yang is that you have to work longer and harder to make the payment – or forego vacations and other fun since you have less “play” money. You sacrifice other parts of your life, like leisure and family time.
When you live connected to Source, and yourself, you are totally aware of the long-term consequences of your decisions. That’s why it’s critical to tune into your body and pay attention to how you feel when making a major decision. When you go through life making rash decisions, or live to accumulate material possessions, you skim the surface of life and continue to feel unfulfilled. You see only the immediate gratification of a new house or car, or how it will make you look to others. Then you wonder why you are stressed, sick and tired, trapped on the treadmill of work and spend, work and spend, or stuck in a job you hate. – Marla Miller
