August 14-20

The time is coming when the truly worthy will be acknowledged and honored for their truth and strength.  At the same time, those who have manipulated and told lies will be shown for what they are.

Overall Color for the Week:    Red Violet

This is a week in which it is well to listen to your own intuition.  The things that will be bantered about as fact or real will show themselves to be partially true at best.  This is not because, in every case, people are trying to get the upper hand, rather it is due to the fact that the energy is so confused and things are so unpredictable that what once was a sure bet no longer can be seen as such.  This can lead to some interesting and unsettling events in relationships, and you may find that it is better to step back and listen, reserving opinion or judgment for later.  It is a very good idea to get as much background on things as possible before doing so, even before taking on some new task or opportunity. There may be stuff behind the scenes that is not being discussed or even is not anticipated.  Take time this week with your self and others to be patient and understanding.  Compassion is growing within the world as a whole.  Many are moving out of their old patterns and activities, realizing that their true fulfillment will be found in other areas.  There is a shift going on at this time, and the energy of this week mirror this.  As with all shifts and changes, emotions will be at the forefront.  This is not a time to stifle them, rather let them run their course.  Take a moment and see where they are coming from.  You will also be finding that with the continuing thinning of the veils, your sense can be registering more things, things that you might not have noticed before.  This is intriguing.  And take some time for joy.  Go within, recognized the potential of your true knowing and the beauty of your heart.

On the larger scene, things will be happening in pairs this week.  When you hear of or read of something occurring, look and listen for there will be second instance either of the same type of thing or something completely the opposite.  So if the Stock Market has an incredible rise one day, the next will come an equally incredible fall.  Look for events in the weather following one after the other, the same with volcanoes, earthquakes, and floods.  The lesson is one of how things hinge upon one another. Another theme of this week is surprise. Things are going to take odd and unusual turns in many areas, politics, wars, sports, etc.   Anomalies will begin to pop up, and they will be so frequent, that they cannot be glossed over by the media.  This week will feature also many slips of the tongue.  Listen to what people are saying.  There will be blatant examples of how promises made are not being fulfilled.  This theme will affect religious groups and institutions, even spiritual communities.  Much disappointment and sorrow are on the horizon.  It is time to be strong in WHO you are.  And GROUND. The energies of the planet will assist.
