What will 2009 bring?

How can we make the most of the natural energy of 2009?
How can we bring our life back on to our own true path?

2009 starts with a solar eclipse which may be seen from Africa, Australia, Southeast Asia and Indonesia. A solar eclipse is a time of change. Those in ancient times saw eclipses as a warning alerting everyone to the change ahead. Many of us fear change, but when we move through change we are more often than not in a much better, safer, happier place, and that is the case on January 25th 2009. You may feel the effects of a solar eclipse as early as the 15th January and the influence of this eclipse will last all year.

The sabian symbol Aquarius 7 - A Child Born Out of an Eggshell is the theme for this solar eclipse. The key word for this sabian symbol as defined by Marc Edmund Jones is Essentiality - the basic trait or set of traits that define and establish the character of new things to come. Some things will be lost or re-defined. Let those old ways go with grace, accept the expanding growing new energy – and jump right back into your new life.

The Crystal Element that amplifies and supports this fantastic positive change is
Septarian, also known as Dragonstone. Septarian is a sedimentary, calcite-aragonite-rich geode. Septarian positively enhances beginnings, fertility, creative potential, quick wit, and clever intelligence.

The Message of Septarian
Genesis, new ideas, new beliefs, new technology and new ways. This eclipse is the start of many new ways. It is the time to promote radical ideas and values. They will become indispensable in the future.

If you are looking for a positive affirmation for these times of revolution I suggest –

I seek new and inspirational thought patterns.

The current solar eclipse has a brilliant showy energy. Have you noticed already the old leaving and the new marching in? Not all of us will have a ceremony as memorable as President Barack Obama, but many many people changed at the same time. In their heart, their hopes, and dreams they made positive tough changes, so powerful it has changed their individual lives and a whole generation of people.

If your birthday is around the 25th – 27th January, this eclipse will influence your life in a much more dramatic way. You may purchase a house, start a new career, travel or investigate a new philosophy. Don’t let the media stop you in what you think is possible. Make sure your ideas are rooted in reality, then make them happen in a way it has never been done before.

Let's make 2009 a year filled with awareness, opportunity and love - HAPPY 2009!
