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 !!!

SCORPIO PROFILE
October 22nd-November 21st
Pluto ruler-ship
8th house activity
8 Numerology
Sensual, Mysterious, Provocative, Serious, Powerful, Tempestuous
There is so much written about this sign, and not all of it particularly positive. It is not surprising, considering the rulership of SCORPIO is the planet Pluto. Although it has been decreed by the Astronomy bigwigs that Pluto is infact no longer a planet, those of us with an Astrological bent see it as one of the most powerful symbols in the heavens.
It gets its name from the association at the time of its discovery in the 30s, of the atom bomb, and the connection with Plutonic rocks deep inside the earth.
Yet so often we think of the cartoon character Pluto and a very different feeling emerges. I feel both of these senses describe those born under this very magical sign.
SCORPIO’s can be so deep, dangerous and difficult, and the next minute make us laugh out loud until we cry.
They are entertainers and yet inside, often feel like they are so alone.
Then there are the SCORPIO’s that really do make a big difference in the world, but are often engaged behind the scenes. When serious decisions need to be made, it is often a SCORPIO at the helm.
Many surgeons, prison officers, prison wardens and prisoners themselves come under this sign. Perhaps it is a karmic cycle that requires imprisonment in whatever form it takes, to be worked through, in order to establish a connection with the real inner self.
SCORPIO’S can be very badly misunderstood because they go straight for the jugular. They don’t hold back and this can get them into trouble.
Your SCORPIO friend will not like having to answer to anyone or to offer explanations as to why they did what they did and when, etc etc. They believe, and so they expect you to believe too.
They are the watchers on this planet. Constantly observing the nature of mankind and trying to make sense of it all. From the prison of their minds they try to break free and break out of their old moulds but this is often too challenging and so they retire into their own worlds.
An open SCORPIO will be in charge of their life and living in a way that brings them personal joy. They are likely to be at the helm in our societies working in support of others who simply cannot make decisions for themselves.
They are often in the shadows or behind the scenes but their work is without a doubt, incredible.
Many detectives and police officers, surveillance teams and undercover spies are born into this group.
The closed SCORPIO takes life too seriously and will be preoccupied with either SEX – the opposite SEX anything to do with SEX and or the OCCULT. It will and could be an obsession.
Power struggles, power games and open warfare can ultimately occur, when SCORPIO loses touch with reality.
As an 8 personality, you are likely to experience many traumas, life and death issues and loss. This seems to go without saying. There is a natural scheme to this and I always feel it enables 8 people to overcome and become absolutely AMAZING.
Eight is also about abundance. Money can flow in and out of your life and through your fingertips. You may work with it, share it, but it is always difficult to own it.
Somehow, if it means too much it will end up owning you.
FEMALE EMOTIONS
To understand a SCORPIO female you will need to be oh so open. They can sense from a distance, your reticence or reluctance, your fear and your desires.
They can eat you for breakfast or they can eat with you at breakfast.
They rarely invite you on a first meeting, into their home. They are usually quite private individuals and have a respect for those that don’t try to push them in any way.
You will know, however, when a SCORPIO female likes you because you will get all their personal information, instantly, i.e. phone numbers etc. If they say no, then don’t push it. It is likely they need time to make sure, but when they say yes, you will have an incredible experience.
SCORPIO’s like secrets and have many. It can take years for them to trust you enough to share their deepest darkest thoughts. If you get this close, then you will likely have found a life partner.
As you would imagine, crossing one of these creatures is not a good idea.
As a friend, they will never forget, and make sure you don’t either!!. As a lover, well some things are best left to the imagination!!!
MALE EMOTIONS
The male SCORPIO is often the classic tall, dark and handsome man. Despite his image and reputation, he can also be seriously misunderstood.
This sexual energy and powerful aura can be felt as soon as he enters the room. But it is likely, however, that he is unaware of just how intimidating this can be on the rest of us mere mortals.
He simply oozes sex appeal. Now there may well be a queue to meet him, and believe you me, he is never short of offers. But so often, he feels flat and unimpressed because he goes in pursuit of sex, drugs and whatever else he can get his hands on, but misses the point that he isn’t connecting on an energy level.
So many times, I have spoken to SCORPIO males who are so desperate to find ‘the one’. It seems to elude them, simply because they are looking in the wrong place.
You are such a deep soul and you need to understand that escapist actions don’t make connections. When you are sober, confident and non-judgemental, love will simply fall into your lap.
A FINAL NOTE. SCORPIO males often get so pulled into the whole jealousy energy. They allow it to engulf them to the point of danger. Everyone suffers here. Especially and including them. Violence, aggression, anger and loss of lives can be prevented when they realise just how powerful their energy is on others.
Do bare this in mind SCORPIO’s, because you are so special to us all. It is awful when this happens because you end up losing your freedom and become a prisoner to your own mental torture chamber. If this feels like you then seek help because it is always available.
LOVE CANNOT AND NEVER WILL BE CHAINED, FORCED or IMPRISONED. That is not love, it is fear imposed on another, from a point of complete loss of self-esteem and personal power. Let this be your awareness.
Let your mantra be:
Om Namah Shivaya
Sing or recite daily to clear your negativity and to discover your true inner self.
MARCH astro SCORPIO
So what is this brave new world everyone is talking about and how can you be part of it? Well I have a big surprise for you Scorpio, because it has arrived and it wants you to come forward now.
As of March 2010 we need you to come forward and speak your mind. We know you are an extremely capable individual, who often prefers to stay in the background or behind the scenes of life, and yet now more than ever we need you to speak your own personal kind of truth.
Say what is on your mind and make new friends in the bargain. It is a memorable month for you and a lot can be shared, shed and secured. A change of look or a makeover could get you really noticed and we all know that you can be a very sexy being. But the spiritual side of life is calling you to awaken and to become a speaker. Books, publishing, writing and recording are all pertinent this month. Speak from your heart in the way only you know how and watch the CHANGES melt those around you. 15th March is a dreamy time for you.
If you give yourself such a hard time, then it is likely, that others will pick up on this energy. This year you will need courage, and conviction, in order to achieve your long-term goals.
By putting more time into YOU, rather than other people and their issues, you will find it easier to cope with things as they crop up.
Money and finances are being balanced in many areas, and if you were relying on the sale of a property or business, to release funds, or to make another purchase, then I would look to the Full Moon in your sign on 28th April, to activate that energy.
Scorpio, you are more than capable of sorting out your financial situation, it is just that this year, you may find sudden unexpected issues arise.
If you are selling your home, and wondering how you are going to break the news to siblings and family that you have decided to emigrate to the other side of the world, then find the right moment.
Although, it could be said that there never really is a ‘right time’, I would suggest keeping this under your hat until the New Moon in SCORPIO on 6th November.
These incredibly powerful energies have the ability of releasing you to travel, to get the job done and to somehow create the illusion of being in two places at once. (You will understand what that means as it happens).
Love is also likely to be a strong worry this year.
Worry? What do you mean Elizabeth?
Somehow all this energy of disconnection can leave you feeling a bit woozy or all at sea in regard to one strong love.
If that particular party is born under the sign of Gemini, Libra or Pisces, then you will be able to restart and sort it out. You may not feel so willing if these signs are not involved.
Adventure is your word for 2010 SCORPIO and you really can’t let anyone or anything get in your way.
Bon Voyage
