Free Sample of July 2008 Celestial Timings

Summery of June
The month of June has been quite the underworld journey with Venus conjunct the Sun and with both Venus and the Sun opposite Pluto. In addition, we have all experienced the intense weather patterns that caused so much flooding, with homes being swept or burned away by drought-caused fires depending on where you are located.
Many of us are getting potent opportunities to embrace our fears. I have witnessed it in both myself and others, at times feeling uncontrollable waves of panic sometimes triggered by the intense storms of last month and other times with no apparent logic or reason connected to these feelings. One of the scariest experiences I had was an incident where I had stretched myself to embrace an arena where I am typically out of my comfort zone.
I was aware of my usual fear and reminded myself to accept it as much as possible without too much judgment. It was much later after the event was over when I realized how profoundly I had involuntarily split off, losing awareness of much of my surroundings and feeling myself pulled into into this narrow tunnel that severely limited my ability to register what was going on around me. When I began to understand what had happened, I found the realization was much scarier than the actual experience, especially as I was also contacting deep feelings of massive judgment about how I had so unconsciously split off. I felt I had betrayed myself with this physical response that I had no awareness of at the time or control over.
I am still being with the impact of this as I realized how much I did NOT love myself or give myself permission to have these feelings. The next morning when I was regaining more personal awareness I flashed on the image of Ged (the main character in the Movie and series of books entitled Earthsea by Ursela LeGuin) when he came face to face with his own terrifying shadow. Ged was able to embrace that ugly scary shadow with great courage taking it in to himself and transforming it right then and there. It looked so much easier in the movie than I found it is to do in my own life, however, the image still inspires me to remember that hating these parts of myself aren't helpful.
My conclusion for now is that it seems to me it is one thing to think we are willing to embrace our shadow stuff and a whole other thing to actually do it when we are face to face with it. I am still reeling from this experience, and grateful for the opportunity to see where my growth edge is.
Meteor Showers
Minor meteor showers and early Persied activity are fun to observe throughout July. July 27 is the Pisces Austinids (meteors originate near Fomalhaut the mouth of the Southern Fish) and Delta Aquarids (same are of the sky just higher up) peak.
