Welcome to Winter and 2019! Winter is the element of water. The meridians are the Kidney and Urinary Bladder. The energy of winter is to go within, to root – just look at the trees and all their energy directed into the root systems. Take the time for reflection, meditation and to nourish yourself, take warm baths and connect deeply with the Divine Being you are. Wisdom that you gather this Winter season will ground and guide you for the entire 2019 year. Happy New Year!

Happy New Year. We think it is useful to approach the change from one year to the next, not so much in a chronological/linear manner, but as a movement through a placeholder in the constant flow of cycles. The start of a new cycle brings opportunities for expansion and revision and for the release of energetic patterns that no longer serve us. Major marker celebrations in the cycles are times when great stored momentum can be released and access to energy of potentiality and possibility can be realized. Portals can be opened to provide connection with transformative potentiality.

As we launch into 2019 it feels appropriate to revisit powerful healing themes associated with Nibiru an integral part of the Acutonics healing system. While theories about Nibiru abound, it has been a core element in the Acutonics methodology for nearly twenty years. Recent theories on binary star systems suggest that at least 80% of known stars have a binary partner, meaning it is partnered with another star or something as massive as a large planet or a brown dwarf.

While not a teacher or even yet a full-time practitioner of Acutonics^® (she’s done all the coursework for certification as a practitioner—save the clinical hours and the project), there are few people, even among the most fervent in the Acutonics^® community, who’ve proselytized on its behalf as passionately, and in as short a time since being introduced to it, as Holly Greene. “I have not been practicing Acutonics^®,” Holly says from her home in the San Francisco-Bay Area, (where she was born over 70 years ago), “but I am sold on its effectiveness as a treatment modality.”

December is the darkest time of the year. It is energetically a time of going deep within. Like a tree deep into our root system. Taking the time to go within, allows us access to the core of who we are so that we may be nourished. December is also a very busy social time of year, creating a pull within our beings. Self care is key to balancing these energies and enjoying this holiday season.

This article focuses on seasonal astro-rituals and Acutonics®. It uses the horoscope for the solstice in Washington DC. I recalculate the horoscope for my current location using Astro.com or astrological software. The DC chart is fine if these other methods are not available.

We have acknowledged the bounty of the harvest and are following the flow of natures’ seasonal cycle into Winter Solstice. “Solstice” comes from the Latin word substitium, which translates as “the Sun stands still”. On the day that the Sun is at its most southern position as seen from the Earth, it appears to stand still before it turns around.

November is harvest time, a time for sharing the bounty of the season with friends and family. As the fall leaves continue to let go and the days grow shorter the desire to go within is getting stronger. So, take a few minutes for yourself and follow the urge by using these self-care tips.

In November we are in the astrological time of Scorpio (October 22 – November 21), ruled by the planet Pluto, (in ancient time Mars). During this time, we are influenced by the Element of Metal, the season of Fall, the time of Harvest, with the organs of the LI and LU, and the planet Venus in Five Element Theory.
