Gratitude

At this moment, millions in our country are without power, electricity, heat, or running water. I feel for my brothers and sisters who are struggling right now, if far away. I have experienced such things myself, which heightens my compassion.

We have just entered the Lenten season. While giving up certain pleasures for Lent, perhaps we will find a way to send those things to those in need. Physically sending off our extra blankets, warm clothes, packaged food items may be more in keeping with the spirit of Lent than giving up meat, sugar or any other indulgence.

Are your basic needs met? Do you have your creature comforts? Ki to Happiness is grateful for all involved in keeping me warm, safe, and well fed.

Saturn squares Uranus

Today we’re under the influence of a very intense astrological phenomenon. It effects us all differently depending upon our particular astrology. I share this with you to empower you with knowledge so to make the most of this energy.

Briefly, welcome spontaneity to replace the status quo. In 1988, communism lost its strong hold, and soon the Berlin wall came down. That was the beginning of this cycle. We are 3/4 of the way through it as this square is upon us now.

What other walls need to come down? Where does the status quo hold you back? Ki to Happiness welcomes spontaneous kindness instead.

Saraswati Day

Today is the celebration of goddess Saraswati! She is venerated on this day in India and Indonesia, as well as all other Hindu hearts. Her domain is all students, studies, and creativity.

My Indian friends have made sure I was aware of this special day of feasting. In Bali, all the kids dress up in their finest as they go to school. Special offerings are made to books, and all other instruments related to creative pursuits and education of every variety.

Are your creative juices flowing? How have your studies been? Ki to Happiness thanks Saraswati for all the juicy lessons.

Metanoia

Paranoia is a state with which we are familiar. In it, innocent remarks are taken personally as an affront or worse, generally behind one’s back.

Metanoia is its opposite. I had an experience of it yesterday in which there was a sense of the words that were chosen indirectly were for my benefit! Lovely for Valentines Day to fill me with such ears to hear.

How was your Valentine’s Day? Did you experience positive things being said about you behind your back? Ki to Happiness says them now…

White valentines

Instead of having white Christmas, it looks like we’ll be having a white Valentines weekend. A smile reflexively lifts my face. It’s beautiful look out on the fresh falling snow, from the safety of my warm shelter. It’s predicted to continue all day.

I love it when nature demands our attention. Any possibilities towards greater reopening is halted. Less urgent matters take a backseat. Only the most essential travel will happen. It’s still and quiet. Soon, more eyes will open and look out into this amazing world we live in.

How are you in the snow? Can you be enchanted even as you are inconvenienced? Ki to Happiness salutes the snow.

Lunar year of the ox

Welcome to the lunar new year of the Ox. Steadfastness, reliability, and persistence are available to companion us through this year and all that we must face. This year will require hard work. When applied, slow steady progress is possible.

This may be a vast improvement over last year of the rat. Survival, cleverness and willingness to gnaw through obstacles served us well as we navigated last year. Now, we can plough through the fertile soil in readiness for planting.

How do you feel about hard work? Can you patiently persist so there’s slow steady progress? Ki to Happiness welcomes the Ox, grateful for the ride it has given this Rat, to land safely on the Buddha’s lap.

New moon in Aquarius

Welcome to the new moon and five other planets in Aquarius. After preparing, today is a great day to set very clear intentions on what it is you would most like to manifest.It is best if those intentions are simple and direct. Vocalizing them will establish their vibration in the physical.

Aquarius can be very heady, intellectual, and analytical. If you find that all of the mental energy has you swirling, ground yourself. I love to do so by walking in nature, practicing yoga, and eating healthy simple foods.

What does your true heart want most? Can you take a few minutes and set that clear simple and direct intention? Ki to Happiness most wants to love and be loved. Like you.

Preparation

Tomorrow’s new moon in Aquarius is an opportunity for new intentions which will be supported by five other planets that sign. We haven’t had this much friendly energy opening us to electric eccentric possibilities since 1962, so let’s make good use of it.

Today is a good day of preparation. Taking out the trash, cleaning the house, recycling items that are no longer bringing joy, are all ways we can ritualize our welcome. Getting some flowers, and something red to wear will align us with tomorrow’s Chinese New Year. We want to make very clear intentions of what we would love to manifest in the next year of the Ox.

What would you truly love to manifest? How can you make space/time for it in your life? Ki to Happiness is preparing for the New Baby Ox year to manifest its hard working steadfastness in the direction of friendship, community, and global consciousness.

Giving Voice

As we spend less time in each others physical presence, the voice has become more important. Hearing the tone, the volume, the emphasis, the point of view all contribute to the message.

With mercury retrograde, and Uranus in Taurus, there are lots of astrological challenges. With technology, communication, and travel hindrances our habits are resistant to the new Aquarian Age. It’s very important for teachers, leaders, parents, and influencers of all platforms to check one’s voice.

To what do you wish to give voice? What’s the most effective way? Ki to Happiness says “sing it”.
