A sacred space for everyone
The following was filmed live at Kunzang Palyul Choling on Sept. 23, 2012 during a Long Life Ceremony offered in celebration of the 24th anniversary of the Enthronement of Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo by His Holiness Penor Rinpoche:

You feel as though you can read people’s minds, and sensitivity is so high that it is possible. This produces a desire to get away from it all, because of what you detect in the minds you read. Although you’d prefer to lie on the couch or zone out today, keep going. Use this sensitivity to do your work to the best of your ability. A woman or child says something that inspires you. Listen carefully. At the same time, a partnership is in a squeeze play and people are under major stress. Do not put yourself into adversarial situations. If you live in a dangerous area, be home before dark eating dinner with loved ones. Be a little vigilant today, dicey things are going on. Be good – be creative, help others and go home. A Japanese proverb says, “The reputation of a thousand years may be determined by the conduct of one hour.”
The daily astrology post affects everyone. Because individual charts vary, the circumstances outlined in the post will affect people differently. Some will feel this energy in the personal arena, some in finances, some with children or family, some in work and so forth. There are many departments of life. Look to see where the dynamic affects you!
You or someone else is feeling boxed in, and the solution is empathy. Understanding and comfort is most important to offer today. It won’t be easy, because the person most in need of tender care is the one who is behaving badly. We all want to comfort the adorable baby, but it’s much more difficult to comfort a cranky adult. But that is what we have today. Someone is in pain, and it’s easy to subtly undercut this person with lack of caring. Don’t do it. W.H. Auden said, “If equal affection there cannot be, let the more loving one be me.” The best energy today is slowly and steadily bringing a dream into reality. Keep working; keep pushing toward your goal. You are actually getting there!

You can buy your way out of a tight spot today. If you feel cornered or uncertain, perhaps it’s because you haven’t done your share! Split the check; treat your friend to a cup of coffee. Consider carefully whether you’ve carried your weight, held up your end, with others. Remember, partnership is the theme these days. Things should be even-stevens in your important relationships. George Soros said, “There is no shame in being wrong, only in failing to correct our mistakes.” If you have done too little, do more. If you’ve done too much, back off until the other side steps up. Equality is important now. A new evaluation is in order. If a relationship suddenly breaks off it may be for the best. Good, equal partnerships will be strengthened. It’s a great time to both marry and to separate. Someone you’ve relied on may suddenly bolt out the door. Let them go. They’ll be back if you’ve been a good partner. Elsewhere, love is a little stressful, and brilliant ideas are just glorious.

The following was a spontaneous comment by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo upon hearing that the birds at Garuda Aviary have come to love her “bird stew.” She refers to some birds who came from a terrible situation and have healed under the care of the aviary’s caretaker Rigdzin Zeoli to the point where they not only enjoy freshly prepared food, but now enjoy the freedom of the aviary’s outdoor flight cage.
Some people think “love” is most important – “I’ll just cuddle you and love you.” But when I was little I was hungry, and I know what it’s like for a growing body to be hungry, and it’s agony. Your body is screaming for something, and you don’t know what it is.
Just imagine these little birds, watching their flock die all around them. How horrible it must have been to know that they’re dying, they’re all dying, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. How hot it was in there! No clean water.
How they’re healing so well makes you understand how deeply Rigdzin understands birds. He’s never lifted his eyes to them, never scared them, never done a quick motion around them. He knows what he’s doing with the birds. He really is an expert.
Jetsunma prepares fresh “stew” for the birds at least once a week, and aspires to offering it to them twice a week. She said this is the kind of thing that really matters to her…

Friends and groups are highlighted today. Expect to spend time with your buddies, whoever they are. Old friends contact you and new friends appear. Someone says the exact thing you’ve needed to hear to express your ideas. Listen carefully, wisdom comes from unexpected sources. A stranger on the street will casually answer a major question for you and then stroll away. All intellectual activities are favored, and new ideas are wonderful. At the same time, someone isn’t helpful to a friendly person. A negative undercurrent is present, possibly due to jealousy or old fashioned bad temper. Pay attention to your intuition. If you get a bad vibe from someone move away, even though their words sound friendly, even though they’re wearing a big smile. Peter Drucker said, “The most important thing in communication is to hear what isn’t being said.”

Pay special attention to your interactions with others today: important connections are being made. Your ability to set up partnerships is crucial for the next month. Until recently you’ve done all the work yourself, or so it seems to you, and you’ve grown accustomed to your way of doing things. Now that others are joining you, the next challenge is working co-operatively. It’s “old dog new trick” time. Your ability to change to suit others is highly accentuated. Libra is known as the sign of partnership, and Libra’s true task is learning how to get along in partnership. How do you fit with others, what in you complements others? If you are used to running your own show, it’s a brand new time. Can you be an equal partner, neither a master nor a servant? You’ll get plenty of practice in the days to come! Joe Murray said, “Partnership should be a duet – when one sings, the other claps.”

A problem may have occurred during the night, or else you slept poorly. The morning begins uncertainly, slowly. Give yourself time to wake up and to regain your vim and vigor. It’s important to do things that give you a sense of security. You or someone else has had their confidence shaken and needs reassurance. The more assured people seem today the less confident they feel. Observe formalities. Be strict in etiquette. Be sure you understand the rules; you’ll need to know them! An authority figure makes a request. Comply in a way that is both respectful and honest. Give bad news if it’s warranted, and avoid the temptation to mis-state things in order to generate good will. People won’t like what you say but you will be trusted, which is more important. Earl Wilson said, “If you wouldn’t write it and sign it, don’t say it.” Your word is your badge of honor today.

Pay attention to your partner today. A change has occurred and partnership blossoms. Someone extends a hand or offers to join you in some way. Accept. The past few years have been hard on partnership. Good ones came under pressure and bad ones came apart, leaving people more aware of what to look for in a partner. A message from afar is beneficial and legal matters are well resolved. Elsewhere, someone behaving in a proud manner will be subtly undercut and won’t realize what has happened until later. Communication resolves issues today. A friendly talk will solve problems a lawsuit can’t. Richard Moss said, “The greatest gift you can give another is the purity of your attention.” Listen and learn.
