Theme: Healing times
There is a space in the cosmic fabric for some healing time. There is greater awareness of old wounds that enables a salve to be applied to past hurts. There is positive and expansive energy for the next few weeks to accomplish your goals. This is in spite of challenges in communication and communication tools. Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.~Hippocrates

Theme: Be prepared
Mercury, the planet of communication, contract signing and technology goes retrograde today which makes these things more challenging. It pays to pay attention, make more effort to communicate clearly and read the fine print. Now is the time to finish up projects, cultivate patience, spend more reflective time with your inner-self . This period ends December 7. When thoughts come up, learn to let them go almost like bubbles popping on the surface of the pond. Just let the thoughts pop.~ Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme : Relationships and insight
The Moon’s placement today makes for harmony and understanding in relationships, despite the occasional surprises. For the next week healings can be expected in our spiritual connections.

What Is Chod?
The following is respectfully quoted from “Compassionate Action” by Chatral Rinpoche:
Chöd means “cut” and is a practice for destroying ego-clinging by offering your body, cut into pieces and converted into pure nectar, as sustenance for the enlightened ones, the hungry ghosts, demons, and other sentient beings. It is traditionally practiced at charnel grounds and cemeteries.

Theme: Cutting through confusion
For the next two weeks the challenge is to navigate communication conundrums while the planet of other realities (Neptune) is in challenging aspect to the planet of communication and thought (Mercury). Be very clear when you speak and check your motivation before you do as there is a lot of potential for misunderstandings and miscommunication.

Theme: Emotional restrictions
Today your hands are tied about what you can and can’t express. You may feel isolated today. But no person is an island and by focusing on your purpose you will have a productive day with a sense of direction. Good things can come in quiet moments when your realize you’re not separate the universe, leading to deeper thoughts about the nature of reality. You can understand that by believing in a surviving, eternal ego, you are following a fool off a cliff.~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo
