The Sun enters into Pisces on Feb. 18. This last sign of the zodiac represents the energy and consciousness of spirituality and idealism. It is the most otherworldly star system, and it expresses through the highest vibrational frequency in creation. This consciousness of transcendence that is the source of all life permeates everyone and everything. This reality is omnipresent and is most easily accessible at this time. The traditional methods of consciously connecting with this energy are meditation, yoga, and prayer. To consciously experience this energy brings a beautiful energy to our lives, enhancing our state of well-being. Now is an excellent opportunity to connect with this expansive energy and experience the inherent sacredness of life. Living here in the Sierra at Lake Tahoe, we are surrounded by this beautiful spiritual environment. Take advantage of it and soak it in. Your life will be better for it.
