Cogito Ergo Sum
'I think, therefore I am'
Rene Descartes
Welcome to the year 2010. It seems almost impossible to be saying this, I don’t know why but somehow I had a different expectation of what this time period would look like. It probably has something to do with watching all those editions of ‘Tomorrow’s World’, as a child. (An ancient UK television programme from the 70s that helped us to look ahead into how the world might look in the year 2000 and beyond!) Well they definitely got some things wrong. Where, for instance, is my flying car and personal robot? Still waiting for the ironing machine – now that really would be good. And what about those purple wigs and silver cat suits we were promised. Now they really would minimise on ironing and no need to take that hair dryer with me everywhere.
The reality is far from what I had expected, but is that because it wasn’t really my dream in the first place? Well perhaps that is exactly why those things have not materialised.
Which leads me to the questions: “How many people does it take, having the same thoughts, to make something happen?” “Do we all have to have those thoughts at the same time?”
We hear so much these days about the Law of Attraction, Cosmic Ordering, Flowing with the Stream and Creative Reality. There are many names effectively for what is individualised thought, where we are invited to believe that: ‘Thoughts create things’. So if that is the case, then why don’t I have a flying car? Right now, it would be more than useful, as the 2 inches of snow on the road seems to have caused so much chaos in the UK, I cannot use my car at all as the roads are too dangerous to drive on! Just wondering how they manage in Canada?
With all these thoughts running through my mind, it was inevitable that some direction would arrive – I am always open to synchronicity – infact it is my guide.
One morning, into my head popped the name Descartes. I must admit I did not know this name, so I eagerly hopped onto the Internet and discovered this very famous ancient French mathematician and philosopher from the early 1600s. His name was Rene Descartes. So what did I learn?
Well, to my surprise, I discovered that he is responsible, for the above amazing quote. In Latin, Cogito Ergo Sum, which translated simply means, I think, therefore I am.
I think, Therefore I am. Now what did this guy know about the Law of Attraction, I wonder? Because it seems to me he certainly grasped the concept.
So let’s try this on for size.
I think - I am Happy – Therefore – I am Happy
I think – I am Healthy – Therefore – I am Healthy
I think - I am abundant – Therefore I am abundant
I think – I am in a flying car – Therefore I am in a flying car
Not sure about the last one but, nonetheless I would say this guy had Law of Attraction right in his hand, but maybe didn’t realise the implications. Or did he? That bit we might never know, but one thing is for sure, he had certainly stumbled on an amazing concept.
So what of the dream of the future that didn’t happen?
Many people believe that 2012 will bring the end to planet Earth. But how do we know this is true? And if we don’t all know this, then we are not all creating the same thought, or reality, are we?
Just like only a small proportion of the world’s population thinking about owning flying cars, so they don’t exist yet. Can this not apply too, in the case of the end of the world? How many thoughts around the world does it take to create that thing? And if more people, like myself, are wondering how you are going to land that flying car in 2023, can we override the potential for disaster?
So, simply, put, does the future of our planet rest with each and every one of us and our thoughts?
An interesting idea or is it the truth?
So therefore, on one level, it would suggest that not enough people, unlike myself, desire someone to invent an ironing machine?
And what about Global Warming? Are we all so fixated on ice caps melting and the Earth entering a new ice age, that we are creating a scenario before it happens?
The recent extremely cold weather in the UK has caught everyone out. Never thought I would see –18 degrees C in Oxford. Now that is weird. So is something happening because so many people are being told that it is so, therefore it becomes a reality?
Let’s be logical here people. This beautiful planet EARTH that we call home has been around for a long, long time, and has managed to cope without much help from us.
We have plundered its minerals and reserves, its gems and its power. Yet it goes on serving us as it has always done.
SO perhaps, if the ice caps are melting, then maybe they need to and we should just sit back and watch what that creates rather than see it as a destructive process. Everything on EARTH is impermanent and yet we can’t seem to accept what might be a perfectly natural process.
Do you really think we can stop whatever this magical place called EARTH has in store for all us? We share it, we live on it and we die on it and it too has its own thoughts and feelings, except we don’t know what they are.
So my plea for 2010 is to THINK VERY CAREFULLY about your own reality. Only YOU can create your world for YOU because we live in a truly abundant and magical Universe.
If enough of us THINK ABOUT a strong and positive individual future, and perceive this planet as much a part of our lives as it has always been, then perhaps exactly that will occur.
‘I think, Therefore I am’, seems even more appropriate than ever in this regard. AND so the adventure of life continues.
No matter what we choose to believe, it is often what we think and feel that makes the real difference in our lives. If we are able to plant a seed of hope, creativity, joy and love at the base of everything we do, then the outcome can only be a positive ascension for all of us.
When these emotions abound we are capable of achieving anything we desire. And so is the adventure of life. ‘ I think Therefore I am’
Wishing you all an ABUNDANCE OF LOVE, LIGHT AND HOPE for 2010 Elizabeth Adonai, Ain Soph xxxx
2010
We are entering a THREE-year in numerology. This represents all aspects of communication, media, speech, verse and song. It is a number that connects with childhood hopes and dreams as well as sibling relationships. Added to this we have the TEN from 2010. Now when we add the number TEN to the mix, things start to get really interesting because it represents Government, Power, Politics, Law and Order, Social Care and Big Business.
In a year where we are expecting a General Election in the UK, expect to see childlike squabbling in the Houses of Parliament, Ministers reciting nursery rhymes and fables, poetry recited in the Halls of Justice and toys being thrown out of cots in the world of business and banking. Not much change their then!!!
On a more down to earth level, if you have something to say then say it. If you want to start your own business that in anyway involves communication, media, PR, advertising, promotion, etc then go for it. No better time than to get your own radio station going. Childhood dreams can be resurrected and put into place.
ASTROLOGICALLY, I really must mention TIME, TIME, and TIME. It is definitely speeding up and I think in 2010 we will see it literally running away from us. This is not an illusion; it is part of the CHANGE that is taking place on our planet.
We start the year with both Mercury and Mars in retrograde. The power to speak is being postponed – but not for long. March will see this delay blasted open. Infect 18th February is opening one particular doorway – mark that date in your diary.
The amazing scenario of the year is the speed at which the planet Jupiter moves through the sign of Pisces. If you are born under this sign, then expect your life to take off in an extraordinary way. As it buzzes its way through the first part of the year we will be bombarded with everything ‘bannered’ by Pisces. Ghosts, spooks and spectres are everywhere. This is now big business, and everyone seems to be obsessed by it. Ghost hunters have become the new Rock Stars!
Expect a spiritual revolution. We are all awakening – and not before time – to the fact that we are so much more than this body. I have never known so many people to be interested in psychic research and study than there are right now.
Could it be the use of mobile phones and the Internet, that is creating an almost telepathic/electronic desire to open channels of connection with your fellow man and woman 24-7? How long will it be before we no longer need those tools and can simply communicate by our thoughts? (Back to those again – just remember Thoughts create Things!!!)
June finds Jupiter moving into Aries. This changes the dynamic from spiritual achievement to power madness. Who is left holding the keys to the kingdom? Getting a hold on meaningless wars needs to be done before we hit this time frame otherwise, we can expect to see massacres in areas of the world where war has a habit of breaking out.
Hopefully, some common sense will prevail somewhere and we will stop sending young men to die in the HELL that is HELMAND PROVINCE in Afghanistan.
Without stepping too far into someone else’s pie, it doesn’t take a lot to see this is really pushing water up hill.
Afghanistan is not our place to CHANGE. It is said to be the seat of creation by many. Its waters are turquoise and its landscape alien in some respects, but rather like a crystalline volcanic desert. It holds many secrets but are they ours in the West, to discover? I believe they are not. Some things are best left undisclosed.
So to avoid war breaking out in a big way somewhere between June and September, be nice to Russians and Chinese people. They are just like us but have to live in extreme temperatures – now we know what that feels like -18 degrees C in Oxford in January 2010!
And what of the forth-coming election? Well, it is likely to be something you wish was over already. Blaming, finger pointing and everyone else’s fault and not a grown up in site. Expecting to see Mr Brown in tears at some point and throwing a tantrum because he can’t get his own way any more.
The Liberal leader takes on the grown up role, but will enough people vote? (Love his ideas by the way)
Can’t wait to see the forthcoming brand new episode of Most Haunted called: ‘Ghost Hunting with DAVID and YVETTE’ – a ministerial edition. We could get to see our new Prime Minister David hiding behind Yvette as she gets him to crawl through the dungeons of Westminster shouting: “ Is there anybody here.” To everyone’s alarm out leaps Gordon Brown screaming about the injustice of it all and asking why oh why wasn’t he invited, and what will become of him now he has no friends.
Just at that moment the resident medium starts communication with Guy Forks about the difficulties of government at which point David trips over an old Lord who has made his home down in the dungeon because he can’t afford his country estate since he had to pay back his expenses.
Aagh alas only my imagination but this is a Jupiter in Pisces production.
2010 is a year for magic and miracles and mania !!!

LIBRA PERSONALITY PROFILE
September 22nd – October 22nd
Venus ruler-ship
7th house activity
7 Numerology
Inspiring, Selfless, Childlike, Gracious, Romantic, Stuck.
Being a Libran is never easy. Plain and simply this is because they often go out of their way to make life easy for others at the expense of themselves.
They seek out the company of people who are calm and creative. But often, due to a kind of naive approach to life, find themselves surrounded by those who are anything but.
This can then lead to a situation which they absolutely detest - confrontation. This ‘C’ word is a nightmare to a caring and devoted Libran.
Nonetheless, Librans can find they draw to themselves, those that might try to manipulate them, purely because they appear to be light-hearted and kind.
It is usually in love where they are thwarted in the extreme. They will dedicate and offer so much of their lives to the beloved, only to discover that they have been betrayed and abandoned. Librans love to be in love and are so romantic.
But the down side to all this love and devotion is their sometimes-obsessive need to control. Often, I believe they are unaware at just how far they can let their desire go out of control, and then the real problems start.
An unrequited Libran is not a pretty sight. He or she will go to great lengths to keep their relationship going, no matter how awful or completely unrealistic it has become. They simply cannot bare the idea of being let down. They do not particularly like change of any kind very much either. This kind of Libran can remain ‘stuck’ for many years in a kind of sea of envy or resentment. Not a pretty sight, but certainly something that can be changed with help from those that truly love them.
Selfless service to others is often met with the harsh reality of someone stepping on their ever so gentle natures. At this point, they will either flee from the scene or become uncharacteristically angry. This is also unpleasant because it is so unlike their normal behaviour.
As a Seventh House personality, anything and everything connected with love, partnership, marriage and romance, is never very far away from their thoughts.
SEVEN people love the challenge of finding love for others too. You could call that matchmaking or you could call it meddling.
The wise Libran will have learned the best approach is to say little and love much. And that is a wise Libran indeed.
With Venus as the ruler of Libra, in an air sign, our beautiful Libran has a wild and vivid imagination.
They are capable of creating the most amazing and inspirational products, foods, music and homes.
A more beautiful partner you could not wish to meet, but make sure you are genuinely interested in them, because otherwise you will break a heart that may not have the ability to repair!
FEMALE EMOTIONS
To understand a Libran female you will need to look at her home and surroundings. If she is at peace with her life, it will be beautifully and perfectly decorated and designed. She will go to great lengths to entertain you and keep you feeling safe and comforted for that is her strength and forte.
She wants to please and make an impression, so allow her to show you around. She is likely to surround herself with subtle shades of lemon, pink and lilac. This is a very soft lady so treat her with gentleness and you will be treated with everything she has within her budget to share with you.
The dark side of Libran females arises when you let them down. They will want to know exactly where you have been and why you are late or why you missed your meeting with them.
They are not particularly forgiving either when it comes to love. Beware therefore that if you cheat on this divine creature, it might be the last time you see her!
She will want to control everything when this kind of thing happens and that becomes a nightmare for the partner. It becomes impossible to live under that kind of scrutiny and, judgement. So keep it straight, honest and sincere and you will have a long and happy relationship.
MALE EMOTIONS
The male Libran can be a little bit of a tricky customer. To all extent and purpose he is very similar to his female counterpart, and yet there is a hidden extra.
He plays on his charm. He knows that he has the looks and the charisma and that women find him hard to resist. He can use the childlike persona to get what he wants if it adds to the mystery and then he will truly go for it, no holds barred. The trouble is, sometimes he chases the ‘wrong’ mate. He is drawn to the dark, broody mare. The one who seems to have everyone else’s attention and so he simply must have her. But alas he will find himself out of his depth pretty quickly. She will bore of his little boy antics. He will walk away bemused, aggrieved and tirelessly blaming everyone but himself.
Mr Libra, you are a splendid chap. You care about your fellow man and will do anything to help and advise.
Follow your heart and not another part of your anatomy and link in with that perfect young woman who is staring at you from across the desk, hall, office, etc. She is likely to be blonde and small and gentle. She is often afraid to speak to you because she sees you as so handsome and somehow out of her reach. But she has an incredible beauty of her own and if you really look you will see her smiling adoringly back at you.
Open your eyes Mr Libra because usually, love is standing right in front of you. And it really doesn’t have to be hard work!

Libran affirmation:
MARCH astro LIBRA
You don’t need to feel as if the party’s over my dear Libran friends. Infact it’s just taking a more interesting turn. March finds you assessing and assimilating your ideas for the future. It could be that you need to rest and recuperate during the first 2 weeks of the month or it could also find you starting a new job or career which in some way puts you behind the scenes. You may be used to being out front, but take it easy because you are finding your feet. Let the energy of the New Moon in Pisces on 15th March guide you in gently.
This is a fortuitous time, even if it feels a little bit quiet.
By the end of the month, and the Full Moon in your sign on 30th March, you will be back in full-energised mode. This is the moment that you will be seen and a new career could well be offered. Take your time though and don’t make the mistake of believing that something that seems to start off slowly is boring because you will soon discover it has hidden depths. This could also apply to your love life – the quiet one may well find you when you are not really looking!
The first part of the year truly feels as if you are well and truly sorting stuff out. It may seem as if you simply don’t have enough time in your day to get everything done, even if in reality you do have a lot of spare time. The feeling will increase, as we get closer to the Full Moon in August.
Although this is not in your sign, I feel it is going to make a big impact on your life.
It can open doors to a whole new career and anything with a spirit, or spiritual connection is likely to pay off handsomely.
However, there is a catch. You will need to accept your knowledge and wisdom from the past and take it into new heights, if you are to convince those around you that you are ready for some serious challenge or managerial position.
Home and family will also be important and a big part in this situation. Could it involve a new home too?
Well if the lights are shining in that direction, and everything else starts to fall into place, then I would say yes.
By the New Moon in Libra on October 7th, you will genuinely be ready to step out into a whole new life.
You have been working on this path for over 6 months and despite certain blocks and challenges, will realise that you have so much more to give. Serious conversations will be had with the right people and it is fair to say that your destiny awaits.
October, generally, is going to give you a boost of energy. You will need it because a lot of people are counting on your kindness and ability to deliver, even and inspite of adversity.
The only person you can let down now is you so jump aboard and take this amazing opportunity.
