In the Community: Oneness Awakening Course

Saturday March 30, 9.30am-5pm and Sunday March 31, 8.30am-2.30pm, 2019
Rocky Mountain College, Prescott Hall

Join us on an inward journey that starts from where you are and moves you towards a state of Oneness, a state where there is no resistance, no conflict, no judgment, no suffering – a state of joy and peace also known as Awakening.

The Oneness Awakening Course is an experiential journey, designed to radically propel participants into higher states of consciousness. Through Golden Orb Deeksha* (transfers of energy which fuel the process of Awakening), Universal teachings, Asanas (ancient practices for the body), Samskara shuddi (process to remove negative patterns), and powerful meditations, a doorway for growth and healing on all levels will open. The Parent Process, The Child Process and The Partner Process leads to internal changes which will shift perception to one of Connectedness and Oneness.

Receive guided instruction in the ancient practice of samskara shuddhi, contemplations designed to heal emotional charges and relationships – releasing negative patterns of childhood conditioning.

Learn the formula for success and happiness in inner and outer life and how to meet the challenges of life with joy. This weekend has been designed to create a huge leap in your spiritual growth.

Oneness embraces all walks of life, and is a powerful tool to deepen one’s connection and experience of any personal faith.

*Golden Orb Deeksha is an energy transfer which results in growth in consciousness by creating a neurobiological shift in the perception and knowledge of life. It reduces the power of the ego and allows us to experience the Divine directly. This non-denominational practice awakens our connection with the Oneness in everything, allowing us to deepen our relationship with those we love, with ourselves, and with all that is.

March 2019 Astrological Insights: Once-in-a-lifetime Uranian influence

By Tara Cady

March is jam-packed with planetary activity, with some effects being more subtle — yet longer-lasting — than others. The closer the planet is to Earth, the more evident the influence.

Venus enters Aquarius on March 1, staying until the March 26. For Aquarians, expect a boost in your physical appearance and how others see you. (Is there a better time to be beautiful than your birthday season?) For everyone else, try adding something new and unconventional into an existing relationship. If uncoupled, you may be romantically drawn to friends.

The first Mercury retrograde of the year is happening through most of this month, March 5-28, so be prepared for miscommunication and travel hiccups. Everyone’s intended message may not be clear, so it’s advised to not negotiate deals yet.

There’s another planet shifting things up on a larger scale. Uranus is leaving Aries behind and entering Taurus, where it will remain until April 2026 (besides a brief introduction into Gemini between July and November 2025). Uranus hasn’t been in Taurus for nearly 80 years, and won’t be again after 2026 for the same amount of time, so this probably is the only chance you get to experience this unique energy.

Uranus, which rules Aquarius, is the change-maker, the inventor, the future-oriented pusher for innovation and revolution. Taurus, on the other hand, is stubborn, tradition-based and past-oriented. Think: Stuck in their way. There will be some resistance to shake tradition, but ultimately Uranus will get its way. With stagnation aside, Taurean aspects of life should expect a positive change.

The last time Uranus entered Taurean energy, we got the ATM. Taurus is about material possessions, what is “of the Earth.” Things that give us a sense of security and pleasure, like money, food and art. The farming industry could see some advances, as could how we handle money.

This astrological influence does have a dark side, however. Look back in history to see what type of leadership rose to power 80-some years ago. That’s not to incite fear, just to make you aware of how history repeats itself in the stars. While Uranus may be back in Taurus, that doesn’t mean the other planets are where they once were at that difficult time in our world’s history. Maintain faith and get ready for some change.

The Children’s Fire

by Mac MacCartney

The Children’s Fire forges a trail into Britain’s wild and ancient Celtic past. It locates the fragments of a story that still has resonance today; the pulse and surge of an older wisdom that cracks the mendacity of the shopping mall’s vacuous promise. It is a passionate evocation of a generous, inclusive, diverse and spiritually significant world – the world of our longing.

In the winter of 2009 Mac Macartney walked from his birthplace in England across Wales to the island of Anglesey, once the spiritual epicentre of Late Iron Age Britain, navigating by the sun and the stars, with no map, compass, stove or tent, and in the coldest winter for many years.

The Children’s Fire records that journey, and seeks to lay bare the aching loss of knowing and understanding sacredness as it applies to everything ordinary that brings joy to the human heart. It asserts the emergence of a new story; the story of a people coming home to a truth made all the more poignant having so painfully broken faith with nature, our deeper humanity, and the paradise we fouled with such casual disrespect. It is a love story and part of a larger narrative that is surfacing all around the world. It seeks to reclaim our future and name it, beautiful.
