With the Gemini Solar Eclipse occurring tomorrow, we're already working with its energies pretty intensely. Throughout this past week, I've talked with clients who were experiencing the impact of this eclipse in their charts, as it initiated necessary change so that they could move forward in their lives.
Gemini rules the thinking process and our nervous systems, so it's not surprising to find that our minds are a bit harder to calm right now. If you find yourself feeling anxious over these next few days, remember to BREATHE consciously and deeply. It's amazing what profound effect that simple process can have. And, of course, if you have a meditation process you like to use, be sure to rely on that right now, too...
Other suggestions include listening to calming music, sitting outside in the garden in the sunshine -- whatever tools you have that help you relax your mind, breathe calmly, and create inner silence. Besides calming the nervous system, in that silence, we are more likely to receive the new levels of information that are available to us through this eclipse energy.
Blessings!

Solar winds and CMEs
If you monitor the SpaceWeather.com website, you already know that there has been increased activity on the Sun over the past day or so. Several strong flares have created solar winds that have headed toward Earth, at the same time that large coronal holes have released CMEs... All of which began interacting with Earth's energy field this afternoon (Wednesday, May 9) -- and, of course, all of our energy fields as well.
So, if you have been having trouble focusing for the past few hours (or have been feeling more emotional or tired or irritable), take it easy -- these energy waves can make us a little unsteady while we're getting used to them. Get good sleep, if possible, tonight, to allow extra time for integrating the energies. Meditate if possible, and drink plenty of water -- the usual advice for self-care.
And, stay open to the insights and information that these solar winds carry -- So much solar activity means we must be ready for our next step!

"Harmless but beautiful"
I had to chuckle at what SpaceWeather.com posted this morning about tonight's Full Moon:
Still, the main point is that tonight's Full Moon will be the closest to the Earth, and therefore the largest in appearance, of all the Full Moons of 2012 -- so, if you get a chance and some clear skies, be sure to take a look tonight! The lunation will be exact at 8:36pm PDT (11:36pm EDT).
And, if anyone takes a good photo of the event, I'd love to see it! Please send it to me at pam@northpointastrology.com.
Postscript: Lisa Perry in Valley View, Texas sent me several gorgeous photos of the SuperMoon, taken by her husband Jim Perry. Here's one of them -- many thanks, Lisa and Jim!
"SUPER MOON" TONIGHT: Tonight's full Moon is a perigee moon, as much as 14% bigger and 30% brighter than other full moons of 2012. This is a harmless but beautiful astronomical phenomenon. Enjoy the moonlight!I found this humorous, not because I expect tonight's Full Moon to bring about catastrophes in any way, but because it was clearly discounting of the effects of lunations -- and, since at the very least, Full Moons affect the ocean's tides, I think we can hazard a guess that they affect other watery manifestations (humans and their emotional bodies), too! Especially given the fact that this Full Moon is in Scorpio, arguably the most emotionally intense of the 12 zodiac signs.

The solar pole shift: Our choice point
If you're like many (most?) of us, you may be finding it hard to stay in balance these days. And, perhaps we can understand the mechanics of this by looking at what's going on with the Sun's electromagnetic field.
The Sun has a north and a south magnetic pole, similar to what we have on Earth. Every 11 years or so, the Sun's poles shift their magnetics — the pole that carries a positive field shifts to negative, and vice versa. This pole shift always corresponds with the "solar maximum," the phase in the Sun's regular cycle when sunspots, CMEs and solar flares are at their most active.
With the Sun's last polar shift occurring in April 2001, scientists have been predicting the next shift would occur this year. And, true to their predictions, current monitoring of the Sun indicates the shift is underway.
But — with one interesting variable. Instead of both poles decreasing at the same time in preparation for the flip of north and south polarities, one pole's magnetic field is near zero, while the other pole is close to full strength. Here's how one article explains it:
Since the energy from the Sun is always being broadcast to the Earth, whatever occurs on the Sun affects us. The solar energy we're receiving right now carries the imprint of the current imbalance between the Sun's north and south poles.
Why it is happening? Scientists don't yet understand the physical reasons. If we consider the metaphysical purposes, we could consider the south pole (which remains strong) to be symbolically connected to the South Node in astrology. The South Node represents our karmic past, and the issues that we are working with most directly in this lifetime in our efforts to advance.
The continued strength of the Sun's south pole is consistent with the sense that each of us is dealing with core karmic themes right now. I've been aware of that truth for a while — it seems everyone is working to clear out the old mental and emotional patterns that have most directly hindered our spiritual advancement.
And now, knowing about the electromagnetic imbalance on the Sun, we have confirmation in physical reality for what we have already been aware of. As each of us prepares for our own shifts into higher consciousness and more direct spiritual connection, we are made aware of where we are not yet in balance, through an exaggeration of the old patterns of reactivity.
It will be interesting to keep watch of the Sun's polar shift and see how our personal/global experience is affected. Japanese scientists working on the Hinode mission are predicting that the actual shift will occur next month, in May 2012. At the same time, there are some predictions that the Sun's magnetic field will become "quadrupolar," with positive fields at both the north and south poles, and a negative field at the equator. Evidently, this last happened some 300 years ago, and resulted in an overall drop in temperatures around the Earth.
If this occurs, how might it affect each of us, energetically?
With both the north and south poles broadcasting an equal magnetic field, our choice between the limiting patterns of the past and the higher potentials of who we are becoming will be even clearer. Some channels interpret this as a dimensional "split" due to the clarity of the choice we will each have. At the very least, it seems to be a choice point for each of us about how we want to direct our lives from this point forward.

Currently the polarity at the north of the sun appears to have decreased close to zero—that is, it seems to be well into its polar flip from magnetic north to south — but the polarity at the south is only just beginning to decrease. “Right now, there’s an imbalance between the north and the south poles,” said Jonathan Cirtain, a space scientist at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., who is also NASA’s project scientist for a Japanese solar mission called Hinode. “The north is already in transition, well ahead of the south pole, and we don’t understand why,” he explained. (Read the full article here.)

Entering the solar storms
Tom Kenyon has just posted a new channeling entitled "Entering the Solar Storms." It's been quite a while since he last received information from his other-dimensional sources (the Hathors) — over a year, in fact. As he says in his comments on the channeling:
If you're interested, here's the link to the new channeling, which includes Tom's comments at the end, and the link that will allow you to listen to or download the audio meditation (free of charge):

I plan to listen to the meditation later today — if you decide to do the same, I'd love to hear about your experience.
Blessings and Peace,

"Whenever I went to them and inquired about the lack of a new message they said that they had already communicated everything that needed to be said up to that point. And when the time was ready — meaning poised for another shift — they would give a new message."The new message (posted April 1) contains some interesting information. It repeats some of what I wrote about in yesterday's Journal — that as we work with the heightened solar winds and higher vibrational energies, our emotions become more volatile. Here is one paragraph in particular that got my attention:
"As you enter this new phase of solar storms understand that they are extraordinary opportunities for evolutionary advancement. They are also, paradoxically, fraught with dangers for devolution due to their intense nature. If you resist the energies of acceleration, you will experience great difficulties in this passage. If you embrace these energies and master them — finding a way to navigate through them with appreciation and a good dose of humor — you will find greater freedom. This freedom of which we speak is a freedom of the human spirit, mind and heart. It resides in a level of consciousness untouched by the dualities of your earthly existence."The new channeling also provides techniques and an audio meditation to help release emotional toxins and heal the heart chakra.

16 seconds to shift the energy
With many thanks to the two sources in my life that have presented corroborative ideas recently (Johanna Hedge, my energy practitioner extraordinaire and Suzanne Lie, author/channel of Multidimensional News), here is a 16-second process to shift the energy of something that is causing you distress:
1. Feel the emotion, and find where it is being held in your body (where you feel it the most).
2. To the count of 4, inhale, focusing on that location in your body and the emotional energy there.
3. Hold your breath for another count of 4, allowing your entire focus to be in the emotion and in the area of your body where it is held.
4. You will then exhale for 8 seconds. For the first count of 4, imagine the emotion and energy from that emotion being released with your outbreath. For the last count of 4, call Divine Light and imagine it coming in through the top of your head (crown chakra) and filling the space where the emotion was.
Repeat, if needed, and as often as it feels helpful.
And let me know if this works as well for you as it is for me!
Blessings,
Pam

Another "break" word
A client sent me this email this morning:
In your journal today you use the word "break" in many forms. What came to my mind as I was reading was "breaking silence." I'm finding the need to become a "squeaky wheel," after perhaps too many years of being "nice."A perfect example of another "break" word that is appropriate for the coming week!
