The Planetary Parade | Expect Wonderful

Hi Lovely!

As you may know, right now five bright planets are lined up in the sky for the first time since 2005. In their actual order based on distance from the sun, these bright planets -- Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Mercury -- can be seen arranged together in a line, from Earth. This arrangement became visible to the naked eye, starting around January 20th. Have you noticed the energies intensifying? Did you feel a significant shift at the end of January?

Think about this. These 5 planets being visible like this is a visual experience of unusual, or we might say "increased" alignment within our galaxy, when viewed from an Earth perspective. These planets are bright, because they reflect the sun's light. The sun -- our sun -- transmits our soul blueprint to us. So we've got a line up in the sky of our galactic friends, reflecting solar light, which includes our own essence energy, back to us.

What a empowering parade!

If you've been feeling a sense of pressure, a strong drive to get clearer about your purpose and how to best share your unique presence in the world, you're feeling are in sync with the message this manifest arrangement is mirroring.

Alignment.

Alignment in the lives of many ascending humans, is starting to generate Soul-based Consciousness. This shift into Soul-based Consciousness is not happening to everyone, automatically, all at once. It happens as we create the resonance with this energy and this includes refining our energy system and growing our capacity to express and emanate higher frequencies. So consider all this knowing that we're all in different states of expression and each of us, guided by our eternal soul-self, is moving perfectly, naturally toward a 5th dimensional expression. An expression in which our Soul infuses our consciousness and we live in a state of conscious unity with all life.

As we move into conscious co-creation with a true, integrated sense of Oneness we began to notice we can see ourselves all around us. In each other, in animals and plants and of course, in the night sky and the fields within our Universe that are actually within us.

This planetary parade can be felt as a strong nudge to line up our own lives with our own galactic energies; creating more spiritual alignment with the higher level aspects within our own wholeness. This will feel, I think, like surrendering to your true self. Like getting to a place where you just drop all the costumes of being and should's that you may have been sustaining, long past believing they are actually authentic or necessary.

The Lunar New year is Monday, February 8th and this will also serve the kick-off to this year of completion and stepping into the next level of human potential.

Now is a great time to go within, intend to know more clearly anything about your life or yourself, that you feel really ready to empower or upgrade.

You are on a path of creating an exquisite freedom and joyful, authentic self-expression. You, being you, fully and freely, is how we will know our own Oneness.

Thank you!
Lots of love,
Meredith

P.S. this planetary lineup will repeat in August of this year -- again, preceding an Eclipse Cycle and an Equinox. Why not use both of these manifestations as support and with awareness and build into a more fulfilled version of you?!

Celestial Delights: Jupiter Venus Conjunction TONIGHT

SUNSET SKY SHOW: Warning. Stepping outside at sunset could cause you to throw up your hands and shout, Look at that! McKenzie Watson experienced the phenomenon just last night in Jonesborough, Tennessee:

"McKenzie couldn't help but celebrate the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter,"explains photographer Mark Marquette. "It was breathtaking."

Anyone can have a similar experience in the nights ahead. Just step outside after sunset and face west. Venus and Jupiter are less than a degree apart. Don't wait until the sky fades to black. A tight conjunction of Venus and Jupiter framed by twilight blue has a special beauty that you won't want to miss.

The night of closest approach is June 30th, when Venus and Jupiter will be only 1/3rd of a degree apart. If you have binoculars or a small telescope, point them at the planets. Both will fit in the same field of view, allowing you to see the fat crescent phase of Venus and the moons of Jupiter simultaneously. It's a great way to end the day.

Geminid meteors Friday and Saturday nights! | EarthSky

Geminid meteors Friday and Saturday nights! | EarthSky


Tonight and tomorrow night – Friday and Saturday, December 12 and 13 – are the peak nights of 2014’s Geminid meteor shower. How fortunate that the Geminids will peak over weekend this year, as the best viewing hours are typically in the wee hours after midnight. In the Northern Hemisphere, this meteor shower often rates as one of the best – if not the best – shower of the year on a dark, moonless night. You can often see up to 50 or more meteors per hour in a moonless sky. There’s a waning moon in the sky in 2014, and it will dampen the show some. But Geminid meteors are bright, and some will shine past the moon’s brightness.


For the Southern Hemisphere: At temperate latitudes in the Southern Hemisphere, the meteor numbers tend to be lower. The Geminids do favor the Northern Hemisphere, where the radiant is higher in the sky. However, this shower is also visible from the tropical and subtropical parts of the Southern Hemisphere. Watch for it this weekend!


Can you watch the Geminid meteor shower in moonlight? Sure. The Geminids are known for sporting respectably bright meteors, so we anticipate on a decent sprinkling of Geminids, despite the light of the waning moon. As a general rule, the Geminid meteor shower starts around mid-evening (at mid-northern latitudes) and tends to pick up steam as evening deepens into late night. No matter where you live worldwide, the greatest number of meteors usually fall in the wee hours after midnight, or for the few hours centered around 2 a.m. local time. If you’re game, you can watch the Geminid shower all the way from mid-evening until dawn.


It’s an open question whether more meteors will be seen before or after moonrise. This custom sunrise calendar will help you learn the time of moonrise at your precise location, on these nights. Be sure to click the option for moonrise/moonset times.


At northerly latitudes, the shower radiant point – near the bright star Castor in the constellation Gemini – stays out from early evening until dawn.


If you do find yourself watching in moonlight, remember, you’ll see more meteors if you situate yourself in a wide moon shadow somewhere … shadow of a barn or side of a mountain? If nothing else, use your car! With the moon out of your view, your eyes will pick up more meteors.


The Geminids are a consistent and prolific shower. Although The shower typically produces 50 or more meteors per hour – averaging about one every minute – keep in mind those are the numbers you can expect on a dark, moonless night. Meteors often come in spurts and are interspersed by lulls, so give yourself at least an hour of observing time. Simply sprawl out on a reclining lawn chair, look upward and enjoy the show.


Although Saturday night until Sunday morning will probably present the peak night of the Geminid meteor shower, tonight (Friday night to Saturday morning) might be almost as good. If it’s clear tonight, don’t let your opportunity slip away.


Where do the meteors come from? Although meteors are sometimes called ‘shooting stars,’ they have nothing to do with stars. Instead, they are strictly a solar system phenomenon. Around this time every year, our planet Earth crosses the orbital path of a mysterious object called 3200 Phaethon, which might be an asteroid or a burnt-out comet orbiting our sun. Debris from this object burns up in the Earth’s upper atmosphere to give us the annual Geminid meteor shower. The moderately fast Geminids slice through the Earth’s atmosphere at some 35 kilometers – or 22 miles – per second.


The Geminid meteors are named for the constellation Gemini the Twins, because the radiant point of this shower lies in front Gemini, closely aligning with the bright star Castor. If you trace all the Geminid meteors backward, they all appear to originated from this constellation.


But you don’t need to know the constellation Gemini to see the meteor shower. The Geminid meteors will streak across all parts of the heavens from late night until dawn.

Bottom line: Find a dark sky to watch a seasonal attraction, the Geminid shower, on the nights of December 12-13 and 13-14, 2014. The moon may mildly interfere, but, you will have a window of darkness before moonrise, especially on the December 13-14. The Geminids tend to be bright, so you should be able to catch a number of them, even in the moonlight. The Geminids are sure to add to your enjoyment of holiday lighting these next few nights!
