Happy New Year!

Hope your holidays were merry! As we move into the new year, let's look at 2009 from a numerological standpoint. 2009 reduces down to a number 2 and a Number 11. Number 11 is a master number and means there is something very special about this new year. I will be writing more about this further down in this newsletter. We have a lot to cover so I am trying to spread everything out over the course of January's many newsletters. Look for my annual 2009 predictions as well. But first let's look at where we'll be this weekend:

Editor's Note: This is in response to a recent 1 Question Reading a client named Pat received from Maria.

Maria,

All i can say is bulls-eye for you. What you wrote is going on right now and I won't ask you how you came up with this at all. You're simply awesome! Maria, unbelievable.This is too awesome!Hope is still alive! Pat

Hello Maria,

I wrote myself my first check from the law of abundance you mentioned in your last newsletter and the universe gave me $500.00.

Actually it gave my group 500.00, I am the treasurer type for a group and we were given $500.00 so that allowed our group to do more activities.

I will be writing more!

Kim

Hi There Maria!!

I received your newsletter December the 10th and wrote out two checks like you described to do. One for myself and one for my son - who is at college. On December 15th both he and I received checks for the same amount for over a thousand dollars. I have two son's but only wrote a check for one of them, I am now going to write one out for the other son on the next abundance date. I expect more to follow, as I am very open minded and expect all great things to come not just to myself but to every one who believes in the universe. TJ

Maria,

Just a note, to thank you for the bag of stones that I purchased from you. Ever since I got them, our money situation has greatly improved. My husband got a very nice bonus from work, and I won $500 at the casino in Petoskey, on Thanksgiving. I carry them with me always.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Many blessing to you this holiday season.

Lori B.

Dear Maria - The moldavite necklace I purchased from you has brought me many amazing changes the moment I started wearing it. I read your newsletter and it sounded interesting. I read all of the letters from people who tried it and wanted to see for myself. I noticed a tingling feeling as soon as I put the necklace on and within a few days things started happening as you said they would to put me on the right path in life. I lost my job on a Wednesday and by the following Friday, was rehired with more pay and a better boss at the same company! I also ended a four year going-nowhere relationship and last night met a new man who seems sincere. We'll see how that goes. But I wanted to order some loose pieces for my brother and his son who are both out of work and thinking of moving back to Arizona from Michigan. Sincerely, Joann

Hi Maria;

I love the Moldavite! It is working and it helped me discover who I was and where I am going in life very soon. I am happier than I have ever been even though my husband left me. I do feel a sense of relief like you said in one of your readings I had last year. The moldavite feels great wearing it and I think I may have already met the guy I am suppose to be with....my true soul mate!!! His name is Jeff and the first time we met, there was something magical about him and our meeting. I know everything happens for a reason, like you said and I am excited about all of the blessings the new year has in store for me.

Cindy

Hey Maria - I have been following your moon calendar and wanted to drop you a line about the success it has brought me. I used it mainly for the gambling and money days and on every day that was listed, I won something at the casino. I didn;t always win big but here's the amounts; $23, $278, $1400, $17 and last week I won $156. I was able to buy all of my Christmas gifts and pay the fuel oil bill two months in advance with my winnings. I also book all of my husband's doctor's appointments when you list it in the calendar and so far, we have gotten in and out of the waiting room in record time! My daughter is using it for her job interviews too. I want to order some for Christmas presents and another one for 2009 for myself. Keep up the good work! Thanks, Maureen

Now for the Law of Abundance Dates for January.

Law of Abundance Checks

Many of you who listen to our radio show and read this newsletter have asked for the Law of Abundance dates to write your check. I have them for December but for those of you who do not know what this is about, I want to share more info. For the past several years, I have been giving people specific dates to write checks out to themselves, sign it from the Law of Abundance and carry the checks in their purse. I have has reports from listeners who have won $40,000, won gas cards from radio, lottery and bingo as well one listener who had a call from a lawyer who said he had a $90,000 check at his office for her! The theory behind this is that you are putting positive energy out into the universe when you write these checks on specific astrological magical days. The cosmic energy combined with your own energy helps the law of abundance work. Here's what you do again in more detail:

Take a check from an active checking account

Make it out to you

Do not date the check

Sign it the law of abundance

Do not put in a dollar amount because this limits how much the universe can bring you

Do not void the check in your bank book, just write it is for the law of abundance

Do not destroy the check unless you have closed the account Make out a new check when new dates come up.

Carry the check with you and watch what happens!

In a matter or hours, days and weeks you should see money or blessings come in! Remember prosperity it doesn't always mean cash in hand.

Here are the dates for January to write your checks.... 1,2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31

Please write back and let me know what happens to you!

Our reader Miss Betty had done this and found a new car very cheap and sold her old one for $100 more than she asked right after she wrote her check!

If you are looking at other ways to use astrology to increase prosperity, my new 2009 Moon Calendar is out!

It lists all of the money days which are good for gambling, job hunts and bargains galore. The moon calendar has all of the Mercury retrogrades, eclipses, moon voids as well as moon signs for each day so you know exactly what days are best for an activity you plan to do...whether its planning a party or having a baby or sending out a resume or getting married!

2009 Numerology
By Maria Shaw

The Number Two and Number 11 are emphasized with 2009.

Because of the Number Two energy we will all be experiencing things not as individuals this new year but with others. It takes two to tango and relationships will be a key issue for many people. I bet everyone of you reading this will be either marrying, meeting someone new, dealing with a relationship issues (positive or negative), making a new friend, creating partnerships, etc. Many of you who are alone or feeling alone will also reach out and realize how important other people are in your life and the value of relationships. Shifts are being made in all relationships. Some will last. Others that need to end, will end. The energy of 2009 is teamwork and working together for the good of all. You personally will know what your needs and wants are from others. You will want to reach out to others and feel a strong need to express kindness. Again, you will realize you do not need to be alone and that you are not alone as long as you will meet another half way. You can also work on relationship issues easier too.

The Number 11 which is a master number in numerology is also a strong energy force in 2009. For those people who have prominent 11s in their numerology, birthdays, addresses, personal numbers, numerology, etc, 2009 can be a year of huge manifestation. 2009 will help put many of you on your destined path and living the life you were supposed to life. Yes, you will be letting go of things no longer valid in your life; worn out relationships, dead end jobs, etc. Some of you will look at these endings as stressful, bad, too much to handle and ask why are some things happening to me? But the bottom line, is 2009 is a year of destiny for you. Be patient! Because much will manifest over the course of the year and you will look back on 2009 as great time of renewal and excitement. Just as I wrote about the Saturn/Uranus opposition in my recent newsletters, many people born in the sixties and early seventies are already experiencing changes and transformation; some painful ones. But the result is fulfillment and understanding. The world as a whole and especially the United States will be dealing with some karmic issues in 2009. Countries will realize that we all need to work together if we are going to succeed and grow. Karma will play out individually and throughout society as a whole. What we sow, we shall reap. Number 11 for me personally has been about messages directed from the universe. Please, all of us, need to be more aware of what God's plan is for us. Be open to listening, meditating and being more aware of the signs we are given.

If you would like to know what the overall theme for you is in the new year numerology wise you can always go to my web site and click on the 1 question icon. I will give you an email reading about what you can expect based on your numerology theme for 2009. Click here for info:

Next week, I hope to have my annual 2009 predictions ready for the newsletter. Until then, have a blessed week and enjoy the beginning of another magical new year!
