My house nearly caught fire last night. I live up in Mendocino where we've had record draught this year. The hills are covered with brown brush and people make jokes about how this politically aware community has had to tone down our debates because even a heated discussion poses a fire threat!
It's possible this fire was started by an off the grid meth lab exploding. I wonder if Neptune, Uranus and Pluto had anything to do with that? Personally I note how Mars (fire) was at the last degrees of Scorpio making a very dangerous inconjunct to Uranus in my own chart - thus the possible threat in my own backyard.

Anytime a planet is at the last degrees it seems we get some sort of crash course in whatever lessons we're needing to complete before the planet enters the new sign.. Mars in Scorpio has been manifesting in my community with an unprecedented number of public events emphasizing fire prevention. I hadn't done much with the information so it seems fitting karma that as Mars was about to leave the sign I was personally getting a life lesson on the the necessity of fire prevention. That is, because I'd postponed doing anything, yesterday afternoon found me out exhausting myself raking all the leaves in a couple of hours that I could have - should have cleared slowly over the last month.
Even so, I was peacefully calm through the whole ordeal. I think I know why….
This week our focus has been on the Bach flower essence Aspen. Aspen is the remedy prescribed when one is suffering from fears of an unknown origin. You can remember Aspen = vague fears by considering that Aspen leaves appear to tremble, as in trembling with fear.
Although usually we only take essences for a particular need, in an effort to learn it is appropriate to take them just to experience what effect they might have. So while I don't consider myself to be of a nervous disposition, I started taking Aspen at the beginning of last week.
The first thing I noticed was how intentionally our news stories frame their reports to create feelings of worry! Wow, if I were trying to sell cures for anxiety I'd advertise right after the evening news. So Aspen made me aware of how habituated we are by the news to feel vaguely uncomfortable all the time. It's so subtle an influence we're used to the way it makes us feel. We don't even realize that going about the day a bit uncertain and a bit fearful is not a normal balanced way to be.
Next evidence of the effect of Aspen came later in the week when a friend commented to me that she suffered from vague fears. We talked for a bit and I learned that she even has to leave the lights on to be able to sleep at night. I don't know if she was worried about intruders or ghosts or dreams or what, but I think it's interesting that as I was taking Aspen I was able to connect with - and not be pulled off center by - someone who suffered from just the condition Aspen was supposed to help. I told her about the essence so hopefully she'll be able to get some relief.
The final proof of the benefits of Aspen came to me yesterday when the fire alarms started wailing. Smoke clouds were swirling across the sky while planes and helicopters dive bombed the neighborhood with bright orange flame retardant. Nobody seemed to know what was going on. People around me were in a state of panic yet I managed to stay calm. We got through it without incident and this morning I'm hearing reports from neighbors about how they discovered they'd loaded their cars with the craziest things and wondered what in the world they were thinking that caused them to grab what they did. I had been able to think clearly enough to be able to pack just a bagful of essentials - particularly my Bach Flower Essences - and today while others are sorting through chaos I've been able to put things back in order very quickly. Yea Aspen!
Hmm…ever notice how "essence" means "essential" ?
Next week we'll be exploring Beech.
And yes, it is for intolerance, criticism and all those things that make us say, "Son of a Beech!"
Talk to you soon,
