Partnership is the name of the game today. Everything you do must take other people into account. How will your actions affect those around you, your neighbors, the world? Think, then act. A tendency to do what “I” want is prevalent now, so against your natural impulse. The result will be amazingly productive and satisfying if you do. You have just slipped out of a situation that was confining and frustrating, and freedom is going to your head! A Welsh proverb says, “He that would be a leader must
be a bridge.” Be free, but don’t dynamite a bridge you may want to cross over in the future. What’s good today? A heady, exciting sense of liberation. Enthusiasm, good health, good work, and people who care for you. Be cool, if possible.

A woman solves a problem quickly and pleasantly. People bend over backward to be nice to each other. Join in! Spend time deciding how to sincerely compliment people, to make them happy. The diplomat of the zodiac, Libra, has appeared on the scene. Studies show that people rise to the top in business because they are liked; make that your goal, if it isn’t already! If you can’t say something nice, stand around smiling. Hard charging types will feel silly, but do it anyway and watch doors open. A rebuff comes, but afterwards tremendous success is possible if you team up with a fearless genius. You do the smiling, and the genius will do the rest! Your partner won’t act like you, but you need each other. Teamwork is everything today! Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Make yourself necessary to somebody.”

Diplomacy plays an significant role today, as does indecisiveness. Important people and men are in the mood to dither; to move from thing to thing, unable to come to a conclusion. Decide not to make a decision and wait it out. Happiness is here in small projects, and a burst of work that seems like fun solves a project. Money comes in, debts can be whittled down. Ask for terms, a schedule of payment, and you’ll be happy. Organizing things is more fun than you ever imagined. Women are loving, helpful and on your side! Robert Louis Stevenson said, “You can read Kant by yourself, if you wanted to; but you must share a joke with someone else.” Companionship is great today. Work is fun, health
treatments are successful, and small tasks are fulfilling.

Fussbudgets unite! Today is your last day to find fault with everything! If you don’t complain today, you won’t feel like complaining tomorrow! This is also your day to finish a job, to wrap up a project. A dependable schedule with people you enjoy enhances the day. Work on health matters, diet, small jobs and scheduling. Pets bring satisfaction. You are 100% in tune with the wishes of a powerful entity, so move forward with confidence. Emotional issues are resolved and families are in harmony. Something hidden comes to light in a helpful way. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross said, “There is no need to go to India or anywhere else to find peace. You will find that deep place of silence right in your room, your garden or even your bathtub.” Sudden events rattle you, but a new stability is in residence.

Astrology for 9/21/2014

9/21/2014 Sunday by Norma

Your wish to “get on with it,” to make something happen, feels blocked. Work is interrupted by unexpected incidents and frustration ensues. The problem is the number of small tasks involved. Step back, get the big picture, and you’ll know what you need to do. Instead of clipping every blade of grass individually, try mowing the lawn! If things are missing, used up or expired, make a list and handle the most important item first. The problem? Not seeing the forest for the trees! Adjust your perspective and things will take on an appealing hue. What’s good today? Enthusiasm that will not stop, a spirit of inventiveness that finds new ways of doing things, and the solid love of those
you trust and rely on. Details get you down, but the big picture looks just fine.

An early rebuff comes, and once it’s over things go really well. The problem is that you were too confident and irritated the wrong person. Being a showoff is unsuccessful, but careful work
is goes very well today. Absolutely keep your nose to the grindstone because you can wrap up a project, one that you’ve worked on for a long time. You did it! Have a celebratory cup of tea and a cracker and high five your friends. Small is beautiful! Winston Churchill described “A modest little person.” Be that person. Tiptoe around performing your tasks, not bothering a soul, and watch yourself succeed. Once you win the prize, it’s ok to shine.

Astrology for 9/19/2014

A happy event comes early in the day. Women and children are feeling good and they are fun to be around. A confident beginning guarantees a job well done. Give compliments to those who deserve them, and there are many. At the same time, it is possible to be misled or tricked about someone’s agenda. Warren Buffett said, “Never ask the barber if you need a haircut.” Beware of scams, traps and cons. If you take a mood altering substance or medication be careful; mistakes and mis-dosages are possible. Be careful swimming and in water. Once you are proceeding with caution, today has many possibilities. Love is in the picture, healing remedies are successful, happiness comes through activity, and a debt is being paid off!

Astrology for 9/28/2014

Deep love appears today. People do each other thoughtful favors that have long term results. Step in and help those you care for, they won’t forget it. Little things mean the most: offer toothpaste to one who needs it, feed the dog, wash the car. A small gesture brings big happiness. As the day progresses, people are ready to get moving! Travel, activity, philosophical discussions, all these bring happiness. Lin Yutang said, “A good traveler is one who does not know where he is going. A perfect traveler does not know where he came from.” The only way to spoil the energy is to sit in front of the television all day without budging. You will miss a great time!

Confusion continues to be a problem. An ebullient Mars wants to rush off and do something, anything, and urges you to leap into action mindlessly. Tripping, falling and getting stuck
are possible. As the day progresses, clear instructions come and you can move forward with confidence. Men and women are in harmony; the man does the work and the woman provides the support, or dinner! Food plays an enormous role in outcomes today. Elizabeth Taylor said, “He met me at the airport with an hors d’oeuves tray and won my heart,” which is a good strategy for today! Offer food wherever you go. Work projects are succeeding, piece by piece. Slow and steady wins the race. Avoid drawing attention to yourself, you won’t like to response. What’s good? Work, health, small things, and long-term projects that are coming to fruition. And confidence!

Unconditional Love

The following is an excerpt from a teaching by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo called “Keeping Heart Samaya”

When we consider the student’s relationship with the teacher on this path, we are talking about very high stakes.  We are not talking about a student-teacher relationship in order to get through a six week course.  We are not talking about a student-teacher relationship with which to graduate with so many credits from college.  We are talking about a student-teacher relationship wherein the end result is the ultimate fruit or jewel, the crown of cyclic existence, that is, the potential or capacity to enter into the door of liberation and be free of suffering at last.  These are enormous stakes.

So both parties in the student-teacher relationship have to take that relationship very seriously, very seriously.  I know for a fact that the teachers regard the students with great seriousness.  Their love for the students is unconditional.  Once that student-teacher relationship has taken place, the teacher has become, for the student, Guru Rinpoche’s appearance in the world, Lord Buddha’s appearance in the world.  Once that happens, there is a love there or a bonding that cannot be undone by anything in the world.  There is nothing in the world that can take Lord Buddha’s blessing, Guru Rinpoche’s blessing out of your heart.  Nothing can do that.

Even if the students themselves were to act in a very inappropriate way, breaking the samaya bond, acting out of accordance with what the teacher has taught, even committing really negative actions like harming the teacher in some way, it is always the truth that if the student were to make restitution, were to turn their face towards Dharma again and truly wish to accomplish Dharma, and wish to separate themselves from their previous non-virtuous acts, the teacher would immediately respond to that.  There is no question.

As parents we do that with our children, don’t we?  Sometimes children will do pretty bad things, throw baseballs through windows, knock the cookie jars over, and really much worse things. So even though these acts may occur, the parent will always accept the child again.  The parent will not stop loving the child.  It may be true that there is a difficulty there, a burden, a strain, a suffering, but that is your child.  A good parent would never turn their face away from their child just because their child made a mistake.  Parents know that children are immature with very little discrimination.  They are learning, and it’s the parents’ job to teach them.  Exactly the same with the student and the teacher.

The teacher knows that students are sentient beings.  According to the Buddha’s teaching, all sentient beings are suffering.  They all wish to be happy, but they do not know how to make the causes of happiness occur.  They don’t understand cause-and-effect relationships.  So isn’t it to be expected that mistakes will be made?  Of course mistakes will be made. It’s only reasonable and logical.  So the teacher would never hold it against the student.  That relationship is like the Buddha’s compassion, all pervasive, beginningless, conditionless, without end.  That is the nature of that love.

So when we look to the student’s commitment, or samaya, to the teacher, we should look to see the same depth, the same bonding, the same beauty in that commitment as well.  And that commitment should be a joy on both parts.  Less the flavor of duty and responsibility than the flavor of love.  The love between the student and teacher is like the Buddha’s compassion.
