Where are we going from both biological and spiritual perspectives? How do we interact with greater consciousness and care with all forms of life? In her work as biologist, poet and astrological counselor, Lyn seeks both personal awakening and to be a helpful guide to others.Lyn Dalebouthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08518814195346798533noreply@blogger.comBlogger361100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372047710296459699.post-55252049048918403752012-01-18T20:30:00.000-07:002012-01-18T21:52:39.714-07:00

I love this photograph of Timothy Mayo. See how this bird spreads her wings with the eternal grace that defines Swan? Yet also observe how the almost clumsy sprawling feet ground her/bind her to Earth? This most elegant bird of flight so grounded to Earth. I feel a simpatico relationship with this Swan. At times clumsy and grace-filled all at once. She has no problem embodying both.

Thanks to Jackson Hole photographer Timothy C. Mayo This is cool: If you add the last two digits of the year you were born in to the age you are now in 2011 it will add up to 111. This is true for everyone born on planet Earth. The numerology for all of us this year is 111. Quite astounding really. As my sister Jan said with her characteristic enthusiasm "How wonderful!

I wanted to share a miraculous story of an event  that happened to me in May.

I’ll make this short. In this mini Sky Oracle, there are three trends to report. Next week I will be sending out a longer piece about the exciting, shocking conjunctions of Jupiter/Uranus, as well as a look at trends for this summer. It will be summer of gatherings, Woodstock-style, a mobilization of the masses, and technological breakthroughs.  Much of these shifts will be brought on by

The Earth revolves, the Earth’s in revolution. The Earth evolves, the Earth’s in evolution. Each year, I am entranced as I watch the return of white pelicans to the oxbow bends of the Snake River.  This year, perhaps because of the frigidity of spring or for more mysterious reasons, their tribe has huddled together for days on end, encircled, elegant heads turned inward, toward their dreaming

This year, the New Year wasn’t really the new year, from an astrological perspective.  Did you sense that? Both Mercury (communications, our minds, ideas, commerce) and Mars (action, passion, energy) were in energetic retrograde as we entered 2010. Rather than being able to enter 2010 fresh out of the gate, retrograde planets in astrology manifest as being pulled backward, inward, to resolving

I am writing this from one of my outside offices where I like to do most of my musing.  I am sitting on the banks of Cottonwood Creek, beneath the majesty and power of what is called the Cathedral Group in Grand Teton National Park, my home.  I am fortunate to be able to write from my various boulder boardrooms where I meet with the Wise Ones, or the more solitary stream-side desks and lake

Perhaps you heard the term “quantum entanglement” recently on  NPR.  It caught my attention.  They were using it as a physics concept/mechanism to  explain how praying for others might expedite their healing.  It is the idea that we are energetically linked  at the quantum level…cells of connection….atoms of attraction.

In the language of the stars, December 11 2007 holds a potent new beginning for each of us and all of us.  Jupiter and Pluto are uniting in Sagittarius to begin a new 13-year cycle.  Some things will have to go, shockingly ripped from you, yet what remains in your life will be essential and, in time, only get better.  Here are some reflections on what this event might mean.
