Dear Consciousness Seekers,

I was talking to a friend the other day and she said, Signe, why is it that so many people are going through so much and others are just sailing through? I told her in times of World Transition, the older Souls are required to transform at an accelerated rate, to support collective transformation. Challenges are coming up constantly for the older Souls to become more self-aware through meeting the Shadow areas of oneself that you are not conscious of which show up through your encounters with others and events.

To quote Carl Jung, One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The darkness is only the facets of yourself that you cannot see. Enlightenment only comes through self-awareness. For example, if you are angry at someone, it is really being angry at a facet of yourself which you have disowned, that gets projected, put onto the other person. This is one of the key reasons that so many relationships are breaking up.

For example men are angry at their outer woman, when in truth, they are angry with their own inner woman, their own feminine side which is vulnerable, emotional, sensitive, etc. They want to it push away. The more a man ignores his inner woman and does not value her, the more his outer woman becomes angry with him. His outer woman is just a reflection of how his inner woman feels. Women are angry at their outer man who is just a reflection of their own inner masculine and it's inner relationship to their own feminine side. We cannot have true union externally until we have it within.

It is during Mars Cycles and Wobbles that the personal issues really come to the surface. These cosmic clocks reveal when feelings and emotions, especially disowned anger and rage, surface. To find out when those periods of eruption occur, all you need to do is get my 2005 Cycle Forecast Audio Tape for your Sign. (Yes, I've gone back to doing them on audio tape, since so many of you want to rewind to where you want to re-listen to any pertinent information). I cover all these periods of eruption, along with all the major Cycles, including the Venus /Jupiter Opportunity times, on the 2 Hour Yearly Cycle Tape for each Sign. This information is not available any where else as I am the Astrologer who calculates the Moon Wobbles and Moon +Solar Wobbles accurately. It is the mathematical angles the Planets make to the sign of your Sun that reveal the areas of external manifestation. ORDER SIGNE'S CURRENT WOBBLES & CYCLES CD HERE.

All the terrorist attacks against the United States so far have occurred during Wobbles and the list includes September 11TH, Pearl Harbor, the bombing of the U.S.A. navy ship the Cole and our embassy in Nairobi, Kenya. (This doesn't mean that terrorist attack only occur during Wobbles) Also violence in general escalates during Wobbles, whether it is an individual who shoots up a postal office, fast food restaurant, and etc. or globally. We have our worst fires with loss of life and accidents during Wobbles. The most destructive earthquakes and difficult weather patterns occur as well. Not all these things happen during each Wobble, it depends on the Sign it is in along with its relationship to the other planets. You can read more about Wobbles here.

2005 is another 10 on the Richter Scale of intensity due in part to an unusually long Mars Cycle. Besides your personal Mars Cycles to your Sun, we also have the collective Mars Cycles that impact the World. Mars, which normally spends about six weeks in a Sign, is spending seven months in Taurus in conflict with Neptune in Aquarius and quincunx Pluto in Sagittarius. This is going to be extremely important since it means that everyone will have this Mars energy staying in one area of your Life, stirring it up. Everyone has all twelve Signs in their Chart. Mars is similar to having tremendous electricity in one's Life; are you going to light up that area of your Life or have a melt down. It is essential to know what you are dealing with and have the insight on making the most out of this intense Cycle.

Mars traditionally is the Planet of War, aggression and man's personal will and desire nature. The Sign of Taurus represents the Earth, Mother nature, natural resources, land, our personal home and concepts of national homeland. With Mars spending so long in Taurus, extremist factions in the world become even more territorial and militant about what they consider their homeland . So in countries where groups are fighting over land, whether it is to create their own separate country and or governing body, or for religious reasons want to keep their homeland for themselves and consider anyone of a different group, or a religion as infidels ; it is going to be a bigger mess!

2005 kicks off with a Moon Wobble in January that's opposed by Saturn, the Planet of lessons, tests and karma. What a lousy time to hold elections in Iraq! We need world leaders to become more aware and to utilize the Planetary Cycles for Right Timing . Periodically we have had presidents of the United States , beginning with George Washington, utilize Astrology in timing critical actions. George Washington's daily diary had an Ephemeris in it as well, a table showing the Planetary positions daily. He used Astrology more for his country's benefit than for himself personally.

Theodore Roosevelt had his Astrology Chart mounted on a chessboard in the White House and was knowledgeable enough to talk about his planetary patterns. Franklin Delano Roosevelt consulted an Astrologer for military timing. (This one about President Franklin, I heard from my mentor Carl Payne Tobey who knew his Astrologer).

Regardless of what you thought about President Ronald Reagan he was and is a great Soul dedicated to service. Ronald Reagan had been into Astrology for many years before becoming president. When he became the president, Nancy and he felt that because of some peoples condemnation of Astrology, they would not consult an Astrologer while he was in office. Then after the assassination attempt on President Reagan, Nancy went back to their Astrologer on Ronald Reagan's behalf. If you know about coming critical and or dangerous Cycles, you can take steps to help mitigate how it plays out.

By the way President Reagan is so far the only president who was elected during a Jupiter conjunct Saturn Cycle to live out his full term in office, whether it is one or two terms. Every other president elected under this Cycle either died of natural causes or was killed. Our current president George Bush was also elected under this same Cycle. He has almost completed his first term and whether there is a second term will be decided on November 2^nd. So far he has been safe and healthy and whether he lives out his full term or terms is still in question. Obviously we won't know until he has finished his Presidency. Now back to President Ronald Reagan.

Everything that the Reagan's Astrologer advised them on is well documented. For example during the Iran Contra scandal, President Reagan would not speak publicly about it until Mercury came out of Retrograde. The press wondered at the time why he waited. When President Reagan's presidential term was over, his popularity was and is one of the highest of all our presidents, along with Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Delano Roosevelt. By the way all Aquarians!!

Even in Ronald Reagan's illness he served, for through his and Nancy's suffering the benefits of stem cell research will become a reality. Nancy you've got to stick around to see this through.

We are living in times of great polarities on many different levels; this is all part of ending process of the Piscean Age. When we look at the symbol for the Sign of Pisces, it is two fish swimming in opposite directions and tied together with a reed. This symbolizes the illusion of duality being two separate processes when in truth they are part of the whole and same process . This tension of opposites becomes even more magnified at this time. Historically, when an Age is ending, as it is winding down, the energies wind up. All the issues of an Age that is ending become intensified and make a last stand.

Ages have their high side and their low side. It is the low side that fights the process of change. The low side of the Piscean Age is the polarization of good vs. evil based on man's concepts of what God is, not God 's. The low side of the Pisces Age is fanaticism about what is the right religion vs. the wrong religion and what is the right way to worship God vs. a different way even within the same religion. Going back these couple of thousand years, we see the most despicable killings done in quotes, the name of God; over and over, religious wars, conflicts and religious genocide.

What do we have now globally but this in the extreme. It is truly tragic! However this is all part of the whole transitional process of being between (on the cusp) of the Piscean Age prior to the birth of the coming Aquarian Age. It is through these crises which will be getting far worse that will set the stage for the necessity of the coming Aquarian Age. The Aquarian Age is the Age of Peace and Brotherhood that has been talked about by sages and seers for centuries. The Aquarian Age has long been described as the time when everyone realizes that God is within all and one's personal relationship with God and to others is what matters, not the religious structures.

A great quote from Mother Teresa which exemplifies this is I believe in person to person and that God is in everyone. And for those who only believe the way to God is through Jesus please re-read Matthew chapter 7, verses 15 through 24. Here are a couple of these telling verses. Jesus is speaking about false prophets Thus by their fruit you will know them. It is not everyone who merely says, My Lord, my Lord, who will enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father in heaven. A great many will say to me in that day, My Lord, my Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name cast out devils and in your name do many wonders? Then I will declare to them, I have never known you; keep away from me, O you that work iniquity. Then in chapter 12: verse 32, Jesus says A whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man (Jesus) will be forgiven Jesus commandment is That you love one another. When he spoke about that he was and is the way, his way is love. It is so sad that killing, torture and war have occurred and are occurring simply because we don't love one another. (By the way in the most recent and accurate translations of the Bible, Jesus spoke about the end of the Age, not the end of the world.)

Recently someone who considers herself very Spiritual was telling me that she had just cut her Mother and sister out of her life. If we want more Love and Peace in the world we each need to start healing our own relationships first with our family, mate and friends, as well as with the people who cross our path. Our personal world is a microcosm to the larger macrocosm.

You are placed in the family and the country that is a reflection of what you have learned and need to learn, for your greatest Soul development. Your Planetary patterns which you are born with are a result of your own personal evolution and growth. What can you do at this critical stage in humanity's development? You can concentrate on your own growth and conscious evolution because in doing so you add to the collective process of Transformation and ultimately help all of humanity.

Are you a better person now than you were before or were you better before? Have you allowed people and events in your Life to lessen your lovingness? What would God ask you to change about yourself? What would God ask you to change in your Life as well? Is your Life aligned with your Soul or your ego? These are a few of the questions to begin to reflect and meditate on. Though these are challenging times, they can be immensely fruitful and rewarding if you are ready to go the distance .

It is so important to know the Planetary Cycles that are going on throughout the year to work consciously with the Cycles and to plan your strategies of living more wisely. To quote a wonderful E-mail that I received from someone who gets my Yearly Cycles Forecast on audio.

Dear Signe, Thanks for the Newsletter and annual tape. At the beginning of each month, I listen to your tape, type up the highlights and your advice, mark the important calendar dates and hang it above the sink in my kitchen so that I see it and read it every morning. Your information definitely helps me in my approach, my attitude and my health as I progress through life. Thanks for being who you are and a gift to all of us.

It is letters like this one, which inspire me to continue with the difficult task of making the Yearly Cycles Forecast Tapes. First I have to analyze all the Cycles for the Year and then go through each day checking the Planetary aspects. Then the actual recording takes hours as none of it is scripted as I am tuning into and listening inwardly to what wants to be shared. It is exhausting holding all the energy of the Cycles and still record.

Thank you for all your appreciation of this work and all the love you so kindly send my way.

Now to what is going on this Fall season. On the stage of the world in late September through October into November, violence and unrest will be escalating as the United States Chart is being triggered strongly and the energies in the Mid-Eastern countries become more volcanic. Every time we get a line up of Planets in Libra we get greater conflicts, violence and terrorism. Libra the Sign of Peace and Balance reflects collectively what we are seeking that is beyond our grasp, as peace and brotherhood most come from within individuals. As long as there are people who do not value the Feminine side of the psyche, which honors and values human Life, nurtures and feels connected to all, we will have violence in the world.

By the way, thank you for all the phone calls and E mails about how much you loved my television show on Times of the Goddess which addresses what is really going on globally during these transitional years. I know many of you unfortunately don't get the show in your area, but I still have a CD on Times on the Goddess available. Even though it is not listed on the current order form, all you need to do is send in a request and check for $19.95, which already includes shipping and handling.

We start another long Moon+Solar Wobble September 24^th till November 22^nd. During Wobbles, people's emotions are running high, there are more accidents, fires, violence, bizarre weather patterns, political and personal upheavals. Also during a Fall Wobble the stock market gets whacked down in October. Nothing goes as planned, so don't schedule clients back-to-back and allow extra unscheduled time for the unexpected. Be more careful driving and don't tell someone what you really think about him or her, during this time. Eat some popcorn, sit back and watch Life's movie and wait until the Wobble passes before making a dramatic change. How things look during Wobbles is not how they often appear after it's over.

All the Wobbles and the important Planetary Cycles for 2005, which is just around the corner, are on my 2005 Audio Tape for Your Sign. The 2 hour long cassette begins with your overview for the year and then goes into each month. Just fill out the order form and mail in from my website www.signe-astrology.com .

The mailing address is P.O.Box 2457,Sedona, AZ. 86339 Many of you requested the return to the Audio Tape format since several of my clients (myself as well) are not technically savvy when it comes to figuring out how to go to a specific phrase on a CD. The cincher besides all the response I got, was watching a Larry King show where he said he wasn't into all this technical stuff like computers, cell phones, how to work the VCR,etc. You can still take your 2005 tape and turn it into a CD yourself. In addition the 2-hour tape costs you less. You can place your order now and we will begin shipping after Thanksgiving. They are shipped in the order we receive them, so if you are planning to give them as Christmas presents, place your order early. ORDER SIGNE'S CURRENT WOBBLES & CYCLES CD HERE.


During Wobbles please remember to focus your energy on living an ethical, evolving, caring and successful Life. Make your health a top priority, as more people are having health problems with the Cycles accelerating. These are not the times to be without health insurance. Remember in times of chaos the opportunity for individual growth is greatly accelerated.

In December we go into a Mercury Retrograde only a couple of weeks after the Wobble is over on November 30^th until almost the 20^th of December. A good time to be inner and reflect on the sacredness of the Holiday season and your Life. My 2005 companion tape called Honoring Yourself talks about what and how to truly Honor the Life you have been given and the appreciation of your Soul. A great one to listen to especially during the inner times of Mercury Retrogrades, when you can receive the information at a deeper level.

In Love, Truth and Appreciation,

Signe Quinn Taff
