We start a fresh trip around the zodiac each year on the Spring Equinox. Aries is highly energetic and youthful. Ideas and vigor are refreshed. It is an individual type of energy, a yearly boost for your own creations where you can explore and express your own unique signature. This year, 2024, has many transits to support you. We have discussed Pluto quite a bit already. There is another transit of great power and interest this Spring. JUPITER has moved into conjunction with URANUS.
This next 4 weeks will be a good time to give attention to, and/or initiate any dreams you have been meaning to create. The more mystical and esoteric they seem the more the energies will support you. Saturn is present to bring order and structure to things that seem out of the ordinary. Soon to follow are 2 Eclipses in March and April while the Sun and Moon are in Aries, the renewal of another cycle. Now is the time to feel and receive from a fuller realm of possibility. The Solar flares are peaking in 2024.
The study of several texts, as well as oral indigenous traditions, mentions a connection between the photon belt, Pleiadian star Alcyone, and the Mayan Long Count calendar.
Science calls this photon belt the “Rings of Alcyone.” This is the observation that our Solar System revolves around the central sun of the Pleiadian constellation, the star Alcyone. This procession takes approximately 26,000 years and we pass through the belt every 13,000 years. This is also found in the form of the Mayan Long Count. (There are discrepancies in the length of years, but not in the “Rings of Alcyone's” existence.)
Some believe we crossed into the edge of the photon belt as early as 1993, all agree that we passed fully into the belt by 2012.
Meditation allows us to still our busy thoughts, reduce stress, heal our physical bodies, and get answers from our spirit guides & loved ones in spirit. A vital piece of opening & harnessing your intuitive abilities. This three-part class looks at the art, the history, the science, and the magic of meditation from three unique perspectives. Learn to drop into meditation easily w/ISD Faculty, Diana, Renee & Story. If you've taken this before and want to renew your meditation and intuitive practice, this is a good place to start. Review for half price! This course is required for the Intuitive Practitioner Certificate Program, however, there is no need to be enrolled in that program to take this class.
The last week in December will be busy astrologically.
There is a FULL MOON in Cancer on 12/26 at 7:33 pm EST. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, so this is a stronger than usual Full Moon. Emotion, intuition, family connections (biological and family of choice) will be highlighted.
Another very strong influence on this day will be Mercury and Mars conjunct very near the Galactic Center in Sagittarius.
Don't Forget the ISD Holiday Gathering!
WHEN: December 17th, 12-2pm, following the Metaphysical Service.

ISD is a spiritual community that focuses on healing and intuitive connection, and the joy of finding the spirit connection within rather than being told how it should or could be experienced.
We welcome those who want to belong to a spiritual group of like-minded people, in which you can explore and find your own path in a community of love and support.
There are classes, services, events, and a sense of community and fellowship. Energy healing and intuitive messages are delivered as a regular part of the worship service. Classes offer many tools which will help you on your life path, and the community we are creating together is one of openness and acceptance, and the ability to adapt with change and growth.
Welcome Home!!!
VENUS moves into Libra on 11/8 until 12/4. This is Venus' happy place! She rules Libra, which simply means that this is, perhaps, the best place for both the sign and the planet to express their attributes. Libra loves balance, justice, refinement, harmony, and beauty. Venus is our sister planet, our morning and evening star. Except for the Sun and Moon, she is the brightest light in our sky. She can be seen even in urban areas where ambient light overpowers starlight. Goddess light and beauty, grace, and abundance are associated with Venus. This combination can show us how this can be universally true for everyone.
Is the wind of your life changing directions? At a crossroads? Consult a tried and true ISD Psychic Medium, during this magical Halloween time, while the veil is thin, to see what your spirit guides & departed loved ones are trying to show you that would help you with your life path.
