The Meta Arts Magazine provides a spiritual feast for the soul to deepen understanding, and nourish spiritual growth. Come learn and grow with us!
Why.
Both politically and geophysically, world wide, we have been experiencing a series of extreme events that are just too dramatic to ignore. You've heard people refer to them as being "of Biblical proportions." Indeed, they are.
Connect the dots and you'll see the pattern of what is happening. Some, think it is "coincidence". Others, think it nonsense. All of the political events, and the geophysical events listed in this article are factual, and well documented. They can be Googled. The connection is too obvious to ignore, and there are far too many of them to deny.
The fact is, they substantiate the prophecies written by the ancient Hebrew Prophets, the Holy Niviim, so many thousands of years ago. And, the events are occurring as written, and like clockwork. Even the actual names of the world leaders involved are given. It is time to open our eyes to see what G-D is telling us.
This ongoing, evolving series provides the events, dates, the original Jewish scriptures, translations, and resources by the world's most respected Rabbinic Scholars and Kabbalists. It explains "WHY", and the principle of "Midda Kinnegid Midda" - Measure For Measure,
the way G-D works.

Astrology:
Carin Martin, Astrologer.....................
Divine Lens
By Carin Martin, professional Astrologer, teacher, & lecturer. I can still recall my reactions when as a child I first saw that mystical circle that is the astrological chart. To me, it was a flat, one dimensional circle on a piece of paper. Inside of the circle were obscure, mysterious glyphs sitting motionless in the twelve little wedges of pie that make up the twelve houses of the zodiac. As I struggled to learn the meaning of the glyphs, the houses, the signs, the planets, the aspects, it was akin to a long, strenuous but exciting initiation into a secret society. No initiate to Skull and Bones or the Knights Templar could have been more excited than I was to learn all these ancient "secret codes". But as I've often told my students, it was not until the flat image of the chart became three dimensional for me that I knew I was finally "getting it." Come read, and learn from this brilliant Astrologer!

Donna Cunningham, Astrologer.........
Why Saturn has as much to do with Luck as Jupiter
Legendary Astrologer, and author, Donna Cunningham, MSW, presents a new column series addressing a variety of topics from her latest e-books. I've been a fairly lucky person all my life, and once, after a run of especially good luck, I set about analyzing it. I felt that perhaps by understanding my luck, I could not only increase it for myself, but perhaps also teach my heretofore un°©conscious "methods" to others who haven't been so for°©tunate. Naturally, I thought a great deal about Jupiter, the planet traditionally associated with good luck, but I was quite surprised to discover Saturn has as much or more to do with luck as Jupiter.

The Top 10 Measurement List
By Basil Fearrington, professional astrologer /musician/ teacher, and author of "The New Way To Learn Astrology.
Facility with measurements is a very integral part of what we do in astrology. The predictive aspects give us a certain climate for the times past, present and future. One planet makes contact with another planet in a certain House. The contacted planet probably rules yet another House in the horoscope. The planet making the contact has come from yet another House. We put these all together, artistically, to try and project ahead of time what the potentials are for an individual.

Jeff Jawer and Star IQ Presents:.......
Astrology and Stones, Part2
by Robert Gover
When I was walking on the beach the other day, I went treasure hunting. I love to pick up pieces of wood, seashells and unusual stones and add them to my altar or place them in nooks and crannies around my house. Each of these magical finds tells a story and paints a picture of where it came from. Stones from a beach are usually rounded and smooth from thousands of years of being tossed on the surf, carved by the ocean waves. When I pick up these stones I can sense the gentle rhythm of the waters lapping over it. I can sense the endless ebb and flow of the tide, a timeless oceanic knot. When I take these stones in my hands, or admire their beauty, I learn a little more each time. They teach me to be a little gentler, to flow with life more, to honor my heart and my feelings.

It’s Time to Fund A Healthy Caring System:
Swami Speaks Out on the Health Care Bill
by Swami Beyondananda (Steve Bhaerman)
Well, we now have a health care bill. That’s great. Now all we have to do is figure out how to pay it. There is nothing wrong with the idea of universal health care. The cellular community beneath our skin -- upwards of 50 trillion cellular citizens -- has no problem providing that for each and every participating cell, along with full employment and no cell left behind.
The Swami is at it again. Looking for a few good chuckles? You'll find these pearls to be absolutely priceless.

Angel Blessings with Doreen Virtue, Ph.D.
The Healing Miracles of Archangel Raphael
by Dr. Doreen Virtue, Ph.D
Archangel Raphael’s chief role is to support, heal, and guide in matters involving health. He uses a variety of methods, including direct intervention, where he miraculously and instantly heals ailments; and guidance, where he directs the person toward the best avenues to health.
After reading and hearing thousands of case studies, I believe that God and Raphael choose the best avenues and methods for healing each particular condition. I also believe that there’s a Divine order behind every situation, even if our human minds can’t completely comprehend the whys and hows.
Mostly, human free will is the catalyst and the culprit within each health situation. God and the angels can’t interfere with our freewill choices. They must wait until we freely ask for help before they can intervene.

Love Letters...............................
Love Is Why the Sky Is Blue
by Erika Morrell, Soul Mate Medium™
In our daily lives there are so many things we do that we fail to see as opportunities to find the Love we seek. We meet these tasks or time of the day, people or circumstances in an almost trancelike state, completely unconscious of what is going on around us and with whom we are having an experience. The opportunity to find Love and/or see it is constantly there, even in the simplest moments of our lives.

Dr. Carson's Holistic Animal Care..............
The Gift We Have in Our Animals
by Dr. Kathleen Carson, D.V.M.
I believe that animals are our fellow beings, traveling with us on our sojourn on this living planet, Earth. Some of these animals become members of our human families. They live with us, sharing our lives, with us both in times of triumph and joy as well as defeat and pain. In fact, in this time when families are split apart, and we often live hundreds or thousands of miles away from human family members, our companion animals are often the only close family members we have. “natural” equates with “harmless”. This is not always the case.

What’s so Special About Humans?©
by Lonny J. Brown, HHC
I have a 17-year-old cat named Samson. He is smart, playful, thoroughly relaxed (except when hunting), and obviously doesn't worry about a thing. Does he know something I don't? Do cats have Buddha-nature? Is it merely a case of ignorance is bliss? If Samson knew how messed up the world was, would he exhibit Feline Anxiety Disorder? On the other hand, if cats ruled the world, it might not be messed up at all

Herbal Adventures with Susun Weed On Horseback in Providence- Part 3:Genet (Scotch Broom)
by Susun Weed
My capable mountain pony and I are following a barely discernible trail - thank goodness for the lead horse's clearly visible tail - through the wild mountain passes and lavender fields of Provence, in the south of France. Since morning we have been slowly wending our way up out of the valley and into the high mountain passes, through thickets of oak and pine which grow right to the edge of the trail.
It is difficult to convince her to turn aside - and I am loathe to force the issue given the narrowness and the steepness of the trail - so I just lean forward and plaster myself to my steed's neck as she makes her way under the low-hanging branches. Warmed by the bright sun, the pine needles exude a deep, resinous scent. It seems to fill my skull, leaving no room for the (literally) breath-taking views as we climb up along the mountain spine.

Medical Intuition: The Body Knows-
Ask a Medical Intuitive..........................
Hormone Balancing
by Caroline Sutherland,
One of the most important components of any successful weight loss program is the delicate issue of hormone balancing – usually missing or rarely discussed in any popular diet book. If those hormones are not balanced, then you will not lose weight or you might lose weight initially and then weight loss will stop – you’ll plateau. Because of working in allergy clinics with thousands of patients over the years, I have developed an intuitive sense about people and their weight issues or health problems. When I look into a physical body, I see the body in terms of the systems that are out of balance. One of the most common imbalanced systems is the endocrine system. Overweight people almost always have hormone imbalances.

Subject: Facing the truth!
by Eva Kettles,
How many chances do we have every day to choose how our day will turn out?
Do you feel like you have a choice? Do you feel that the people that influence your day are the reason you feel the way you feel? Do you think circumstances are the reason for the feelings that come up? Do you think that you experience what you create or do you believe you experience just what life puts in front of you without a connection to you???

What Questions are You Asking?
by Rena Greenberg
There's a road in front of you and it has a fork in it. One way leads to moments of pleasure with a backdrop of pain, and the other path goes to a place that contains moments of pain resting on a foundation of deep peace, love and contentment. Naturally, if you were asked which road you would prefer, without hesitation you'd most likely select the one leading to deep pleasure and serenity.

Kabbalah Revealed...............................
Sense Beyond the World You Perceive
by Kabbalist Chaim Ratz,
Chaim Ratz is editor in chief of Laitman Kabbalah Publishers, associate editor of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Kabbalah (2007, Penguin Group), translator of Awakening to Kabbalah (2006, Jewish Lights Publishing), and associate editor of World Futures: The Journal of General Evolution, special issue: Disclosing the Science of Kabbalah (2006, Taylor & Francis Group). The author is also a content editor for the Internet site www.kab.info, and a member of Bnei Baruch—Kabbalah, Education, and Research Institute.
It is a well known fact that we perceive the world using our five senses. In this way, we are like a black box that only perceives the things entering it from outside. It is affected or pressured by external forces and then reacts to these influences.
Whatever enters this self-contained system (us) through the five senses goes on to be recorded, processed, and analyzed by a complicated system we call “the brain.” The resulting picture constitutes our entire perceivable reality.
So, what we perceive is our reactions to external influences. It is the culmination of our senses processing all the external information that comes our way. The entire collection of our sensations gives us an internal picture called “our world.” Thus, even though the world appears to be outside us, it is actually an entirely subjective, internal picture. Using just our five senses, we are unable to compare the objective reality existing outside us with the subjective reality existing inside us.

One Digit to Wealth
by Alan Cohen
On my weekly radio show Get Real (www.hayhouseradio.com) I presented a program on prosperity. In advance I announced that I would be doing on-the-air coaching for listeners who wanted help with issues of abundance. Since prosperity is so relevant for most people, I expected to receive lots of call-ins.
When the show began, I looked at my computer switchboard showing me who was calling in (called a “STAC”) and to my surprise, there were no calls. I announced the call-in number again, and after another five minutes, there were still no calls. I was amazed. Then I realized I was facing a fear that one day I would present a show and no one would call in. So I simply went on with my talk about prosperity principles, including the idea that prosperity may be right at your door, but you can keep it at bay with a tiny thought of lack.

Songs & Stories...................................
by Karen Drucker
I Don’t Have To Be Perfect
Karen Drucker has been a singing mermaid, a singing casket, and was literally “elevator music” when she was hired to sing and play piano in a moving elevator. She has recorded 13 CDs of her original inspirational music, and recently released her first book, “Let Go of the Shore: Stories and Songs That Set the Spirit Free.”
I have a new mantra: I’m doing the best I can and it’s good enough!
To really get how big a deal it is for me to say a phrase like that, let me take you through a fast breakdown of how I have lived my life up until now.
I was a straight A student through most of my school years.
I was president of the Honor Roll.
I was captain of the swim team.
Teachers would keep me after class to help them organize their desks since they were so impressed by how my papers and notebooks were so perfectly put together.
In my 20’s I was a professional organizer.
Everything in my life is always perfectly in its place.
I could go on but I want you to get the idea of a kid, then an adult, always, always, always creating so much extra work to make things look good, make myself look good, and do the RIGHT thing...always! Something happened when I turned 50. Some part of me just said--ENOUGH!!!

Discovering the Key to
Living Your Sacred Dream....................
Power Deck Card of the Month:"Essence”
by Lynn Andrews
Internationally Acclaimed Shaman, Spiritual Teacher, and Founder of Joshua Tree, Lynn Andrews, continues in teaching her Power Deck with this month's card: Life is like school. We move through it learning many things, cloaking ourselves in environmental knowledge. You are on the warrior’s path toward enlightenment. You must one day peel away accumulated knowledge like layers of an onion and move back into the source of your power. When contemplating a Zen garden, you find that the source of your power is the essence of the Great Spirit. We come onto this earthwalk like a giant piece of smashed mirror, every one of us reflecting the light of our god. The experience of life is a process of piecing together these scrambled fragments into one great mandala, reflecting the source of all being. Like the center of a cyclone, we sit at the one point of stillness, the pandemonium of life circulating madly around us. Choose equilibrium, not frenzy. Live life from your center. The essence of you and the essence of the primal moving force of the universe are one.

Karma: The Functioning of Cause and Effect, Part 4
by Bhikshuni Thubten Chodron
By Buddhist Nun, Teacher, Author, and co-founder of the Sravasti Abbey. Does karma influence whom we will meet and the relationships we'll have with them? Yes, but this doesn't mean those relationships are predetermined. We may have certain karmic predispositions to feel close to or to have friction with certain people. Nevertheless, these relationships may not continue along those same lines. If we are kind to those who speak ill of us and try to communicate effectively with them, the re-lationships will change. We'll also create positive karma, which will bring happiness in the future.
We are not karmically bound to others. Nor are there "soul mates," special people who are the one and only one for us. Since we've had infinite past lives, we've had contact with every being sometime before. Also, our relationship with any particular person constantly changes.

Jacquelyn Small, Eupsychia ....................
Sacrifice:
The True Meaning of the Word
The word 'sacrifice' comes from the root word 'sacer,' which means "to make holy." Making something we've experienced holy, then, can be known as a sacrifice. But how do we experience making something sacred or holy?
When we first commit to the spiritual path, we have no idea what's in store for us. We expect that our lives will get better because we've decided to be spiritual, to give ourselves to the God of our understanding in service to the world. However, it doesn't turn out to be that way. And our innocence is quickly shattered as we begin to see that anything in our way of being that is "shadowy" or negative or just plain over, rises right up in our face to be recognized and dealt with. Dr. Carl Jung said it plainly: When you enter a spiritual path, the first thing that comes up is your shadow. You shadow is all those unconscious parts acting out through you that you've never faced or integrated.

The Conscious Column.......................
Rethinking Special
by Rev. David Ault
There's a fairly common workshop exercise designed to shine light on the idea that we do not travel this life path alone.
I've always referred to it as an affiliation circle.
After discerning the exercise's appropriateness, given the dynamics of the group, I have them stand in one large circle.
Starting off jovial and light, I'll ask, "How many have had coffee this morning?" Those who have are asked to step into the center of the circle, acknowledge their counterparts through eye contact then step back into the circumference of the original circle.
Next, it might be a question like, "How many have traveled more than 100 miles to be here?" Again, those who have, step into the middle of the larger circle, acknowledge with eye contact the others who have also stepped in, then they move back into the original circle.

Spiritual Mastery for the 21st Century.....
Master's Lesson - A Lesson for Michaelmas
Dr. Gwen MacGregor
Throughout time, humanity has had a fascination with angels and the angelic realm. It is believed that angels are direct emanations from the Creator, brought forward to protect and teach mankind. Angels have also been referred to as the "Archetypes of Wisdom,"or the teachers of the great lessons for every civilization. Every culture on Earth has made reference to winged beings of light or goodness in their sacred literature. Whether it be Ahura Mazda of Persia or the Archangels mentioned and painted throughout Italian society, these beings of light promise us devotion, protection and love.

What your life will be like when you reach 100 years of age?
by Margaret H. Lewis
Margaret H. Lewis is a highly regarded professional speaker, workshop facilitator, business and personal development consultant, gifted spiritual practitioner and author. For over 20 years she has provided countless training seminars and workshops on a wide range of life management and personal development skills.
Have you ever considered what your life will be like when you reach 100 years of age? I’ve taken to asking people about this lately, and I often hear one of two responses – laughter at what is perceived as a joke, or a shudder followed by the retort, “Oh heavens, I hope I don’t live that long and end up in a nursing home.” We often worry about the future and regret the past, but how often do we dream of elder age as a beautiful vision of the realization of our wise soul? Have you ever contemplated how you would lead your life at age 100 if you were still strong, robust, healthy, and full of wit and humor? Imagine what it would be like to be of sound mind and body and filled with the wisdom of experience that a life of 100 years offers!

I, of my own knowledge….................
Mind to mind
by Frank Demarco,
Author of Muddy Tracks: Exploring an Unexpected Reality,
Editor, Publisher & Psychic Explorer
For several months I have engaged in conversations with certain minds not currently in physical bodies, most notably Ernest Hemingway and Carl Gustav Jung. As I have explained many times, this is not an ability unique to me -- in fact, I am convinced that it is a universal human ability often exercised without our conscious awareness.
The longer I practice, the more questions accumulate, and occasionally get answered. As happened early last month, when in one session I suddenly realized the “why” of limitations on mind-to-mind communication, and then got a pretty convincing insight into the ultimate nature of creativity.
