TRANSFORMATION – Page 7

Hang on for a Wild Ride! Venus Transit, Lunar Eclipse & more!

Posted on June 2, 2012June 4, 2012 by Debra Taitel

If last month’s new moon solar eclipse on May 20,2012 didn’t stir up enough energy to wake you up, the cosmic events in June surely will! Hang on for a wild ride as we experience a significant and powerful time. This month will be transformational as we raise our consciousness and feel the effects of the energy of a full moon lunar eclipse, Venus transit (one of the rarest planetary alignments) and towards the end of the month Venus will turn direct after being in retrograde since May.

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse

The lunar eclipse is on June 4, 2012. If your emotions are swinging like a pendulum and you’re feeling a bit bi-polar the eclipses might be the cause. Eclipses bring heightened emotions and represent light and darkness. You may very well find answers to questions you’ve asked for a long time. This is a powerful time which you can use to your advantage for personal growth! “Eclipses demand progress, so if you had hoped to keep to the status quo, that won’t be possible. Eclipses demand clear answers and lots of progress.”~Susan Miller Astrology Zone Go with the flow and allow the power of the moon to eclipse out that which no longer serves you and let go of your old life as you are transformed!

Venus Transit

The very special and rare planetary alignment occurs on June 5th or 6th (depending where you live). Venus in all her glory passes in front of the sun. She is too small to block out the sun however the sun will ‘light up’ energies of the divine feminine and the effects of this alignment are already being experienced by many. This event is so rare that there are only 6 on record since the invention of the telescope; 1631, 1639, 1761, 1769, 1874 and 1882, and 2004. You’ll notice that the transits come in pairs 8 years apart.

The ancient Mayans said that Venus passing in front of the sun signifies a new consciousness being born and as with all births we’ve felt the pain that leads to a blessing. In 2004 the transit started humanity on a path of healing the divine feminine. The current transit is the culmination of that healing. Think back to what was happening in your life in 2004 and what has happened since. Take note of significant changes which have occurred. We will not see or experience another transit in our lifetime so take advantage of it, validate yourself and be aware of how much you have changed since 2004 as well as what’s happening in your life now.

Venus represents the heart, relationships, compassion, love and beauty. We are moving into a time of honoring and awakening the divine feminine energies of passion & creativity. Venus also brings forth latent artistic abilities so this is the perfect time to ignite your passion and get your creative juices flowing! Venus is the feminine side of our being and the Sun is the masculine side of our being. Venus aligning with and passing in front of the sun is symbolic of our Feminine (Anima) and Masculine (Animus) energies coming into unity and balance. She reminds us to shine and integrate balance in all parts of our lives. Please note that Venus has been retrograde since May so if you’ve felt imbalanced and in effort the transit will open up a new level of consciousness. This gives you ample opportunity to re-balance and re-establish your footing before she goes direct on June 27th.

As a clairvoyant I’m most interested in reading the energy shifts in relationships and in particular the relationship we have with ourselves. The Venus transit energy allows us to deepen and heal our most important relationship; The relationship between body and spirit. When cosmic events are taking place we have a choice to welcome and harness the powerful energies of these events and allow them to transform us. We have a choice to embrace our passion, follow our hearts desire and allow our creativity to flow without hesitation. This is truly a time for transformation, personal growth and progress. It is a time to shine and show the world what you’ve got! Enjoy the ride!~Shine Your Light Debbie

Finding Validation in an Invalidating World….

Posted on May 10, 2012 by Debra Taitel

Once again I find it’s time to write about a particular energy trend emerging in reading sessions. That trend is validation or perhaps more to the point, why are we so invalidated that we seek validation outside of ourselves? In a vast world full of competition it’s difficult to validate our own self. Seeking recognition from others is looking outside yourself. There’s nothing wrong with wanting validation but it’s important to be able to validate YOURSELF so you can accept and ‘have’ the validation you receive from others.

Why is it so hard to validate ourselves?

Validating ones self is not easy because you’ve simply been taught from a very young age not to. It’s ok to validate someone else but it’s considered egotistical if you validate yourself. Why is it ok to validate and recognize others but not yourself? Validating yourself is not about praising yourself publicly. It’s ok to be proud of what you’ve accomplished and there’s nothing wrong with telling people BUT constantly shouting your good deeds from the rooftops and telling others how amazing you are time and time again is actually you wanting others to validate you. Validation like everything else is an energy and sometimes the invalidation you carry causes you to see things and react through the filters caused by that invalidation.

How much validation can you have?

Perhaps you’ve been recognized but in your heart you don’t feel like you deserve the recognition because in your eyes it wasn’t good enough. I’ll bet that some time in your past you did, said or created something you were proud of and felt good about only to have someone else invalidate it. If that happened and you owned what they told you as truth at some level you’re holding on to the energy of invalidation and it has had an effect on everything you’ve done since that time. In order to have validation from others you must be able to validate yourself and know inside that what you do or say has value to YOU.

Until you can validate yourself it will never be enough….

No matter how much recognition you receive or from whom, until you can validate yourself it will be fleeting at best. Receiving an award (or recognition) is wonderful but what happens after your 15 minutes of fame is over? Can you validate yourself for it or do you find yourself trying to figure out how to do it again? Have you spent your life trying to get validation from a particular person yet you are ignored or you feel like you always say the wrong thing and try to correct it? Do you feel like nothing you do or say is good enough in the eyes of another? Are you validating yourself with food or sex or shopping or some other addiction which makes you feel good for merely a moment? Some people shop so they have lots of “things” but do those “things” really validate you? Some people validate their bodies with food only to beat themselves up later for gaining weight or feeling awful. Some are in effort trying to be the “top dog” who makes the most money so all they do is work. None of those things work.

Recognition and validation from others is a beautiful thing but so is validating yourself and accepting validation from others humbly and with grace. It is up to you to find what validates you. Does a job well done make you stand back and smile without someone else telling you? Can you graciously accept and know with all your heart that you deserve validation from others? Can you give to others without expectation of receiving anything in return and you feel good about it? In the world today it’s difficult even under the best of circumstances to receive a spirit to spirit HELLO. If your spirit does not get a HELLO it causes you to feel empty, alone, ignored and invalidated. A simple hello while looking into someones eyes is a huge validation for both of you. You saying hello to your own spirit validates you.

Finding validation in an invalidating world means you validate yourself as well as others. It’s also important to be aware of the validation you receive every day. If you’re looking for validation scroll down to the end of this post and enjoy one of my favorite videos on the subject. This short film called VALIDATION does show how a bit of validation can change your inner and outer world. Let me finish by saying….HELLO! YOU ARE AMAZING! YOU HAVE VALUE! Can you see these things about you for yourself?~Shine Your Light Debbie
