ASTROLOGY NEWSLETTER JANUARY 1- JANUARY 15, 2025
THE Trojan Horse was a large wooden horse left by the Greeks and accepted by Troy as a symbol of victory.

The stratagem of the horse allowed an enemy to enter the protected bastion at night stealthily. The horse was the “gift” that allowed the enemy in.2025 is a blend of the Trojan Horse and surprises. An “enemy” hiding in plain sight allows the way for others to enter.
And so we’re off to the races.

If you are alone or feel afraid, go to nature to help you merge with a bigger energy: the ocean, the mountains, the animals, the trees. Focus your breath on your center and breathe in the ocean, hold your breath inside for a few beats and then allow your breath to flow out to cosmic ocean.
This little practice will dissipate panic, anxiety and stress.
Rather than obsess on what you cannot change, deep breathing puts you back in touch with you.
