August 2006 Tip of the Month

Classic Feng Shui Tip:

Ways you can help our planet...

  • Recycle and encourage others to do the same. Plastics (beverage bottles, dry cleaning bags, disposable diapers, etc.) never decompose and are taking over land fills.
  • Consider hybrid vehicles.
  • Purchase fuel-efficient light bulbs. Compact fluorescent bulbs are more costly up front but will save $60-80 EACH in energy costs. If every household replaced at least five light bulbs, the U.S. will reduce energy costs by millions.
  • Unplug appliances and computers when not in use. Anything plugged in pulls electricity, even cell-phone chargers.
  • Find out what you can do to influence global warming. One person's actions can have a dramatic effect.
  • Four trees per person per month are required to offset carbon monoxide, other bad gases we're producing, and clean up our water sources. American Forests will plant them for you (and know which tress are suited for each locale) for a small donation. Consider this as a gift to our children and grandchildren. We did not inherit this planet from our ancestors; we are borrowing it from our children and grandchildren. Today's actions, or lack of them, will impact them the most. Visit www.americanforests.org for more information.

Good days for August 2006*
by
Diana Garber, Intuitive Concepts, Inc

On 8/8 we begin an 8 Ken/Gen (earth) month, in a 3 wood year (2/4/06 – 2/3/07), in an 8 earth cycle (2004 - 2023). This energy runs through 9/7. This energy is good for money but also increases the potential for difficulties with pregnancies and injury to limbs.

This period is a time when we need to consciously evaluate our actions. Choose love over fear, patience over anger. Fear is self defeating and it feeds upon itself. When we're afraid, we're more vulnerable. In Landmark, we have a saying, "breakdown to breakthrough." When something triggers your buttons (and it will during this period), allow yourself a few seconds to: have faith that grace is abundant, hope (trust) that you'll get through it, and choose love over fear (have every action be an expression of love). And if, in being human, you loose it temporarily – sincerely clean it up when the moment has passed.

August 8 through September 7 is a challenging time if your Chinese astrology is Tiger. And remember, 2006 is a challenging year for dragons.

  • August 3rd & 20th are the day with the lowest energy. I will personally avoid these days for significant activities and decisions.
  • August 9th is a full moon.  Generally, a good time to wrap up projects.
    But, this is NOT a good time for surgery or medical procedures. The pull of the full moon can cause risk of increased bleeding. But, bulbs planted during a full moon produce better results! 
  • August 23rd is a new moon.   Generally, a good time to start new projects.
