Astrology

An important message, letter or communication happens today.  It’s most crucial to speak in a kind, diplomatic manner.  Angry or demanding speech harms your cause and you will be ignored, or worse.  The urge to “tell people off” is strong today, as is the wish to push others who aren’t responding the way you would [...]

Letting Go of Hate

Why do people “like” to hate? What is the engine, the mechanism that drives hate? I think it is fear. Fear of loss; mostly fear of failure.

Most haters are terrified to let go of their rage. They think without it they will lose all: or cease to be. Could not be more wrong!

Letting go of hate is Liberating! One can actually regain emotional control and win their life back. There’s room for #love. #stopthehate

I cannot imagine hating and raging like that or why one would want to. They are already in hell: death will be hard. The hells open-

Even now the hells open. Because hate is hell on earth here and now. #stopthehate #bringthelove #feedthepoor #animalrescue.

    May your boundless compassion shine equally on those that love and those that hate,and may those that hate come to know that in hatred there is only loss and in love there is only benefit and happiness.

    May you be with us always, else how can we find out way to liberation.
