Astrology, Spiritual, Thru the Seasons

 

Celebrate the Cycle of Life,

 

The Fall Equinox is the second of the three major harvest festivals. The Celtic name for it is Mabon: the season of storing food and preserving nature’s bounty for the coming winter months. This year it will be on September 22nd at 6:04 pm PDT just as the sun enters Libra, the sign of the balancing scales. The term Equinox refers to this balance of day and night. Fall is the time of plants shedding their seeds, going underground until new plants rise up in the Spring 

 

In ancient Greek and Roman traditions, during the Fall Equinox the Grain Goddess Demeter was honored. Originally, she was a triad: the Maiden (Kore or Persephone), Mother (Demeter), and Crone (Hecate) in the Pantheon that predated the Olympian myths.

Sami Merlyn, DD-- president of ESP LAB, and Spiritual Science Church since May of 2006, Sami took over the organization after the time of Al's passing, as per Al's request. Spring of 1978 Sami met Al and became a member of ESP LAB. Al ordained Sami as a minister in his church on Al's birthday June 19th, 1998. Sami became a LIFE MEMBER June 2, 1999. As an active member Sami worked with Al from Spring of 1978 until his passing April 8th, 2006. Al is still working with ESP LAB and Sami, from the other side. When Al was asked (after his passing) if he would continue helping with spiritual treatments Al responded, "Before they call I will answer!"

Sami started his spiritual quest at age five when his mother told him he had a spiritual father, God, who could answer prayers... Sami was thrilled and promptly asked God and his mother for a puppy. Mother said no but three days later in the culvert outside the church Sami got his puppy. This started a life long love of prayer, and a pursuit of the spiritual.

Sami, raised in a Christian home, started practicing yoga and studying all the religions of the world at 15. Sami wondered why prayer works and what are different methods around the world. At 16 he attended all the local Christian churches and started a devotional club in his high school which still is operational. Sami started laying on hands and praying for folks healing at the same time.

Sami, who considers himself eclectic, likes the words of Sai Baba who said, "All religions are facets of one Truth, all are tributes to Its Glory." Sami continues the work of spiritual quest with treatments for the success of every positive request received, through his work as a minister and president of Spiritual Science and ESP LAB. He encourages everyone to find the Divine Light within and a positive path towards spiritual evolution.

People across the world will be able to view the last supermoon of the year on Thursday and Friday. A “sturgeon moon,” as it is referred to in August, occurs when the moon is at its fullest during a time when it is also closest to the Earth, making it appear larger and brighter in the sky. Keep it here for images and updates.

If you haven’t seen a supermoon yet, Thursday night is your last chance in 2022!

For the fourth and final time this year, the supermoon, also known as the Spurgeon moon, will occur at 9:36 p.m. EDT (6:36 p.m. PDT) — and the next one won’t happen until June 14, 2023.

Celebrate Abundance my friends,

 

August 2nd is Lammas, the first of three festivals celebrating Mother Earth’s bounty. For this first harvest festival, baking loaves from the first grains and offering them at a communal meal has always been central to these gatherings, going back to thousands of years before the Common Era. Harvest festivals celebrate the abundance of the Great Mother.

 

The Celts called this time Lughnasadh (loo-na-sa), Native Americans called it the Green Corn Festival and in Slavic Regions it is called the feast of the Big Glad Woman. Ireland celebrates Lammas as Big Sunday and farming communities gather at hundreds of traditional hilltop sites to set up craft fairs, feast, play games, and dance. A part of every one of these gatherings is a ceremonial meal where the first fruits of the harvest are shared in gratitude.

Astrology, Editorial, Magick

 

Wow, with the past lunar cycle of a Solar eclipse on the new moon, a complete Lunar eclipse on the full moon with Mercury Retrograde, we can wonder what will befall us next? The celestial influences have been especially challenging with plenty of strong Mars’ action (as it squares the moon– temper tantrums and wars), with Pluto squaring the moon and Venus (explosive heart breaking emotionalism– that can be linked to death).

     We have each had our share of challenges as we plodded through the confusion and delays of Mercury Retrograde, with all the rest. And the good news is “this too shall pass.” Mercury will go direct soon on June 3rd, and it will be good to put it and the eclipses behind us.

Celebrate Midsummer my friends,

June 21st is the Summer Solstice this year as the Sun enters the sign of Cancer. Also known as Midsummer, it is one of the eight great spokes on the Celtic wheel of the seasons. The Solstice (meaning sun stands still) is universally recognized in all cultures as an important turning point—it is the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. Sun energy is at its peak and we feel its primal creative force.  

Midsummer’s Eve is one of the three important spirit nights of the year; the other two are Beltane (May Day) and Samhain (Halloween). When the veils are thinnest between the worlds, we can communicate with the spirit world more easily.

Celebrate Life Force Energy on May Day,

 

May Day is the time when nature has truly come alive. Our ancestors joyfully embraced the fertility of Mother Earth; flowers bloomed, offering their pollen to the bees. The Celtic name for this period is Beltane, which means bright or sacred fire. During the festival, great bonfires were lit and animals and fields were blessed in hopes for an abundant year. Traditionally May Day began on the eve of May 1st and was celebrated with feasting, dancing, and merriment for two weeks. 

 

Beltane was a time when lovers ran off to the fields and woods together to honor the Great Goddess with ecstatic lovemaking. The Maypole, symbolizing the phallic energy of the season, was festooned with ribbons.

OUR WORDS HAVE POWER!

By Sami MERLYN Rose

 

Maverick Magickians are aware that our words have power.  Words–  whether written or spoken—are a magickal operation, either conscious or unconscious.  We take our thoughts and make them physical which is an act of magick.  When we are aware of the magick and perform it with intention and conviction– it becomes more potent.

 

Let’s use the ENERGY OF SPRING with some LUSH GREEN Prosperity Magicks as we celebrate RENEWAL.

 

My first exposure to Al’s writings came when a friend gave me Al’s WW book, in the late 70’s.  I had some business reversals and needed some help… and turned to the chapter on prosperity magick.  I was intrigued by Al’s metaphysical understanding of herbs and decided to try a batch of prosperity powder.

This year in the Northern Hemisphere, the Vernal Equinox is March 20th , as the Sun enters Aries. Millennia ago this was considered the beginning of the New Year; hence the sign of Aries at the beginning of the Zodiac. The Persian New Year is still celebrated on the Spring Equinox, following these very ancient traditions.

Equinox means that day and night will be balanced at the equator. Also known as Ostara or Eostre (the origin of the name Easter), the hours of light and dark will be equal. In ancient traditions this is known as the time of Green Fire, which refers to the sap rising in trees and to the electrical energy pulsing through the rapidly growing plants.

If you asked our friend and comrade Al Manning, “What’s new?” He would answer, “Me, I am always new and exciting!” This upbeat attitude is important to “keep on keeping on” with the pervasive many challenges of life. Every day is a new day with an opportunity to begin again.

 

The great wheel of Nature turns and the seasons change and we recently celebrated on

02-02-22 IMBOLC, a Celtic word meaning “in the belly.” This is one of the 8 Grove Festivals we celebrate at ESP LAB HQ. Now we look forward towards the coming of Spring!

 

Our friend, mentor and ESP Lab “wise woman” Linda Savage, DD, PhD offers her perspective on IMBOLC and all of our grove celebrations at our ESPLAB.com
