Maria Shaw's StarScopes Newsletter

Hi Rich,

Welcome! We have many new StarScopers who have signed up with us this past month. At least 150 or more members! Thanks to Cindy Myers who so diligently requested e-mail addresses at the door at our fairs and all of you who have sent your e-mails in for the contest.
Issue #14
April 2003


I will probably be in Ft. Lauderdale, FL as you receive this. If you are in Lauderdale, Friday night at 8p.m. I'll be at the Borders on Sunrise doing a lecture and book signing (March 28) Special thanks to Julie Newville for handling all of my scheduling. Sorry we couldn't get everyone in but I will be back in several months. If you're on the cancellation list, you'll be sure to get in on my next visit.

The 3 winners for the e-mail contest will be announced the first week of April so you still have time to send in more e-mail addresses.

Continue to pray for peace each and everyday. It's important to keep abreast of what's going on in the world but it's also important to turn the TV off once in a while because the constant bombardment of the destruction and negativity of war is sometimes too much for our energy fields to handle. Take time to meditate, pray, do something creative.
Three Planets are Changing Signs This Year: What does this mean for you?

Part One
Crazy Uranus 2003
Copyright Maria Shaw


This year there are three major planets changing signs. Some of you who have readings with me these past months already have some inside information on these planetary shifts and what they personally mean for you but let's take a look more deeply at what's going on in our solar system:

Uranus went into the sign of Pisces the 2nd week of March. It hasn't been in Pisces for 84 years! That's when the flapper girls came out, red lipstick was smeared on and the movies were a hit! What does Uranus represent? Sudden and unexpected changes, usually for the better. What does Pisces represent? Dreams, compassion, addictions, romance, and escapism. The last seven years Uranus was in the sign of Aquarius. Aquarius rules computers and new technology. Look at all of the strides we have made in the computer and technical fields over the past seven years. The changes have been enormous!

Now with Uranus in Pisces, the overall theme may move from technical talk to sympathy and compassion for our fellow man. It's already noticeable in regards to the war; the concerns many have for the Iraqi people, the U.S. sending them food, aid and such. On the down side, more addictions and drugs could be evident in society. On the upside, there could breakthroughs in the medical field and advances. We may even find cures for major diseases! We'll have to wait and see but remember expect the unexpected!

All of you born under the sign of Pisces will have a wild seven years. There will be lots of changes, twists and turns! Aquarius can breathe a sigh of relief as their crazy life will calm down for a while, especially noticeable after December of this year. Leos will no longer experience the crazy relationships they've grown accustomed to over the past seven years either. Your love life will not be as unpredictable.

Now it's the Virgo's turn to experience changes and surprises in relationships. Like the other earth signs, (Capricorn and Taurus), Virgos do not appreciate quick and sudden unexpected happenings. However changes are coming! If you're single, you'll probably settle down within the next seven years or meet someone that will change your life. If you're attached, the relationship will change and the changes will be necessary. So hold on.

All of the signs will be affected by Uranus in Pisces, most notably the Pisces and Virgo followed by Sagittarius and Gemini. If you know your astrology chart, look where Pisces falls in your chart to see where you'll experience the most erratic change.

Here's a quick rundown how Uranus in Pisces will affect the other signs:

Aries - People from the past come back unexpectedly. Hidden enemies strike out of nowhere.

Taurus - Expect crazy new acquaintances to enter your life and changes in friendships too.

Gemini - Work, opportunities or upheaval. Unforeseen problems.

Cancer - Keep a suitcase packed. Opportunities to travel at the last minute come up. Lots of psychic insights. Changes in your personal belief system or religious beliefs.

Leo - Changes in your partner's money. Unexpected windfalls or losses

Libra - Changes in co-workers. Unexpected stress or health concerns

Scorpio - New love affairs, pregnancies, gambling wins

Sagittarius - Unexpected expansion in home and family, real estate transactions, moves. Watch for water problems. Crazy Family members.

Capricorn - A change in vehicles, new computers, cell phones. Miscommunications. Crazy siblings or upheavals with the in-laws.

Aquarius - Changes financially; for the best or worst, If you have a lot of money, you could lose it, if you're broke expect your earnings to go up!

Part II in the May Newsletter - Hang on all you Cancers! Saturn, the Lord of Karma goes into Cancer. Geminis get relief. Cancers gear up for two and half years of growth, lessons and tests. This is a newsletter you won't want to miss especially the Canericans and Capricorn's but I'll let all signs know how this aspect is going to affect them personally!

Part III in the June newsletter - Jupiter goes into Virgo. Lucky times ahead for those born in late August and September. Find out how this beneficial planet will affect each sign!

Two Wolves
This is from the web. I thought you would find it interesting:


An old Cherokee chief is teaching his grandson about life: A fight is going on inside me, he said to the boy. It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.

One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, self doubt and ego

The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, empathy, truth, generosity, compassion and faith.

This fight is going on inside you and inside every other person too. The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, which wolf will win?

The old chief simply replied - The one you feed.

I remember 12 years ago, going to Unity to see John Gray speak. I can't express how amazed I am that I am actually speaking there too. It doesn't seem possible! I am truly honored. It has been one of the highlights of my year!
