Is it a report? Is it a mini-book? Or is it just a mad ramble about our complex, infuriating, but ultimately enlightening relationship with the moon and the sun and the planets? Whatever it is, it’s happening. My intention with these magazines, which will come out twelve times a year, is to help you to understand some of the spiritual and emotional energies that will be stirred up for every sign during each one month time frame. Each issue will come out just before the sun moves into a new sign, or around the 20th of the month. This month we have the sun moving into Cancer, along with the solstice time, at 1:04 a.m. on June 21st. The sun stays in Cancer until 11:56 a.m. on July 22nd when it moves into Leo. With each issue I’ll show you the potential trick spots, the likely GOOD times, and the overall themes and issues that you might be dealing with during that period. Along the way, I’ll give you a few warnings in the vein of “Don’t go there! There be dragons!” to help you avoid problems. Plus I’ll be sharing some simple affirmations you can use to access the positive energies of that time and bypass the negative influences. My approach to astrology has always been one of being a celestial navigator who focuses on enjoying her cosmic quest while trying to AVOID scary stuff like psychic black holes or violent supernovas. Basically, I want you to be able to enjoy your tour through the stars and get the most out of your journey. My personalized cosmic road map is designed to be both practical AND fun. I’m excited about this issue because we have a solstice time happening on June 21st (or thereabouts – you might need to adjust to your local time). Each equinox and solstice marks its own mini-spiritual “New Year,” when energies are shifting in major ways. These are great times for making amends, making a wish come true, and making a fresh start. For the three days leading up to each solstice or equinox period and the three days after, we sit in the magical energy of that time. They are truly powerful periods because the ley lines of the Earth are giving off heightened electromagnetic energy. The indigenous or native peoples of the world have known about this for ages. That’s why they always scheduled their celebrations during these times, because the equinox and solstice times are the best times of the year for prayer, meditation, healing, and any type of “magical” work. The subtle energies available to us during these times are much stronger than at any other time. Lipstick Mystic® Stars Magazine Volume 1, Issue 1 June 21st – July 21st, 2013 3 I love the solstices and equinoxes because my dreams are more vivid and my psychic perceptions are a lot sharper. As we move through the year, I’ll help you get the most out of these times as I talk about them in different issues of this magazine. Although I’m writing this magazine while living in the Northeast U.S., and I operate on Eastern (New York) Standard Time, I’ll be giving you information you can use anywhere in the world. So you won’t be left out if you live in the Southern Hemisphere! For example, even though people living in the north are heading into the summer solstice this week, those of you living in the Southern Hemisphere are preparing to experience your winter solstice. I’ll give you some insights about what’s happening in your local area, wherever you find yourself in the world. I’ll also talk about global energies that are affecting ALL of us. You’ll find that I’m not a terribly technical astrology gal. I won’t be putting you to sleep with lots of complex astrology jargon. “Asteroid Vesta is exactly trine to your natal mid-heaven!” Sounds painful, doesn’t it? Not to mention whatever unpleasantness might be happening around Uranus. Don’t worry. You won’t hear that boring type of “astrology insider lingo” here. Instead, these reports are designed for EVERYBODY to enjoy, whether you just know your sun sign or you’re already acutely aware of everything that’s going on in your birth chart. If you know your rising sign (also called the ascendant), your sun sign, and your moon sign, that’s always good. There are many places where you can calculate your birth chart for free, including Astrolabe.com: http://alabe.com/freechart/ Oh, I should quickly mention a few other things. Some of you may know me from my syndicated astrology columns that appear in various newspapers here in the U.S. or my columns for the Chicago Tribune’s Redeye and The Mash newspapers. Those columns are very much like little “fortune cookies” because my editors can’t give me any real space to cover astrology themes in depth. It’s fun for me to reach people with those publications, but it’s also frustrating because of how limited those publishing formats are. Basically, if you’re longing for material that’s much more in depth, stuff that TRULY helps you unlock the mysteries of the energies you’ll be moving through in a four week period, you’re going to LOVE my magazines. They’ll provide a lot of detail for you. Instead of having you pay in advance and making you commit to subscribing to these reports on a yearly basis (which is a lot of pressure, isn’t it?), I’m just going to offer them for sale individually. If you’d like to be notified when the next issue is available, you can just stop by my website (http://www.lipstickmystic.com) or my Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/lipstickmystic) or sign up for my free newsletter on my main website. I imagine that the style and length of this magazine will shift as we move into the next few issues. One thing I’m definitely planning to do is to make this magazine available in various “e” formats, so you can download a copy to your Kindle, Nook, or favorite e-reading device. Lipstick Mystic® Stars Magazine Volume 1, Issue 1 June 21st – July 21st, 2013 4 You should also know that from time to time I offer personal consultations by email through my website, too. This is where we can take a hard look at various influences you were born with and help you to make the most of your potentials while healing the “shadow” side of your birth chart. I also offer consults that are designed to help you with self-healing and coming into your psychic gifts. At my website you can find out more about this and check my availability. As a busy publishing gal, I write and publish lots of other books and reports, so just go to my site if you’d like to find out more. In February 2013 I published a sassy book about my adventures as a real life time traveler. It’s called The Lipstick Mystic's Guide to Time Traveling, Healing the Time Body, and Finding the Best Possible Timeline (While Others Do the Apocalypso Dance). In my book, I teach you how to heal your time body, which is one of your subtle energy bodies that surrounds your physical body. Your time body gets damaged from past physical or emotional trauma. And when it’s been damaged, it makes it much harder for you to experience good things in your life. I show you how to heal your time body so all of those “positive thinking” exercises you’ve been working with will finally start to work! You can download the first 25 pages of the book for free at my website’s “Shop” page: http://www.lipstickmystic.com/shop/ You can also check out the reviews on Amazon.com. You can order the book off of the individual Amazon sites (in Canada, the UK, Spain, France, Germany, Italy and Japan) or on Barnes and Noble’s website. Okay, are you ready to get started? Thanks for reading this far. I’m your cosmic hostess, Jennifer Shepherd, and I think it’s time to have some fun!
