Every year, the Sun travels around the entire Zodiac, bringing us the Change of Seasons. 

When the Sun returns to the beginning of the Natural Zodiac, it enters Sign of Aries!





When the Sun enters Aries, it begins the cycle of life all over again, which we call the Vernal Equinox,
or the Birth of Spring. 

I think the First Day of Spring should truly be our REAL NEW YEAR.  It FEELS like New Life is bursting forth everywhere!  

Even the Symbol for Aries looks like a Fire Cracker! 






Now - If you look at a Natural Zodiac as a Huge Cosmic Clock, Aries represents the Sunrise -
 
that first spark of life.




Aries statement is "I AM".   Some people think this refers to the EGO (little "i") -

But it actually relates to the Great "I AM"!





Look at this little Ram Jumping for Joy!

Now, isn't it wonderful that the early Christians chose this time of the year to celebrate Easter?



It looks like Jesus is coming out of the Tomb, saying "Here I AM!"

The Re-Birthing of Life in Spring is a perfect time for the Story of the Resurrection.  
 
And since Aries statement is "I AM" - 

it is also the perfect time to celebrate the One who gave us the

greatest expression of the "I AM" consciousness -- Jesus Christ.

We have always heard these words that Jesus said, "I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life."  

Jesus was GOD - so, why would he need to refer to his small human identity, as the "i am"?

Many people are coming to realize a different meaning to his words through Meditation -- 

Perhaps Jesus actually came to teach us that we are all the Universal, Limitless, Eternal "I AM" Principal -

It is sometimes called "Christ Consciousness" - 

that place of existence where we are all ONE with God, with our Source.  

This same Universal, Limitless, Eternal "I AM" exists within all beings, at all times, 

is always alive and never dies!  YAHOO!   

Can't you just imagine yourself bursting out of your own Tomb of Fear and Death into a Ball of Light?

YEEHAA!



Jesus came to Model the Truth of who we are - by demonstrating His own Mastery over Matter, over the Elements, over Dis-Ease, and finally over Death itself! 

Jesus showed us that we are not born to be limited by this Ego, this Body, this Mind, or anything else that the Earth Plane limits us by. 

We are here to experience Eternal Life, the "I AM."  Thank You, God!



Of course, the Easter Bunny with all his colorful Easter Eggs fits nicely into the Re-birthing Story, too!





So, now we see the cycle of life continue,

with the new budding flowers and birds signifying Spring, the end of the dead Winter. 







By following the rhythms and cycles of Nature, we can truly feel Blessed by ALL these experiences -- 

Death and Re-birth, Loss and Gain, Breaking Down and Re-building --

the Ebb and Flow of the tides, the Rise and Fall of the Moon.

This Spring Equinox, March 20, 2008, when the Sun goes into the Sign of Aries,

will be followed the next day -- Good Friday! --

by the Full Moon, which is always in the Opposite Sign, so this time it will be a Full Moon in Libra. 

This Full Moon will be a time to consider the Axis between the "I Am" consciousness - who I truly AM -
and who "We Are"- the collective consciousness. 

And for those of you who missed the last Full Moon, which was also a Lunar Eclipse, last month -
check out this time lapse photo!




Isn't that Gorgeous?!!

I have been listening to the Oprah / Eckhart Tolle Webcasts on "A New Earth" --

They seem to be blasting through all our collective concepts, egos, and ideas of who we think we are.

This is a significant time for letting go of the old Ego-centered "i am" (the little i)

and spend more time breathing in and out in the peace and serenity of the BIG "I AM" -

that place in us that never dies...

You can check out the previous Webcasts on their free podcasts on www.oprah.com - they are fantastic!

Even if you are not able to participate live, you may be able to pick up on the "downloads" in meditation!

These webcasts are definitely affecting the planetary consciousness.

So, Enjoy the Spring! - 

And Please Let me Know if you know anyone looking to buy a house and Labyrinth!
