Hello StarScopers

We have lots of news for you this week. Joe and I are back from an amazing honeymoon in Paris. Our wedding at The House of Broel was lovely. Everything was perfect! But now, it's back to reality and planning all of the fun and enlightening events for the rest of the summer and the next six months.

We will host out annual Summer Fair in New Orleans next and there is a special savings for our Minneapolis area StarScopers to receive at the convention. Read down for more details.

For those of you still interested in the Mayan Ruins Cruise January 9th out of New Orleans, our travel agent Linda, says we have added more cabins for booking. This cruise is quite popular and we have already had many people sign up. Joe and I are hosting a Bon Voyage Party at our home in the French Quarter the evening before we sail. So please come into town a day early to visit with us. There's no better way to celebrate the new year than visiting the Ruins; harnessing some of the spiritual energy to guide you through the new year and the changes we will see in 2012. We have lectures and classes planned on our days at seas which are included in your cost. We also have a few people traveling solo who are looking for roommates. Click here for details...

Be sure to read the Astro news in this newsletter. I have written of many important aspects and dates you will want to be aware of this next month or two. But first here is where we will be in August.

A Message from One of Our Readers

One of our newest readers is Leigh who is from Minneapolis, MN. Here is a letter I received from Leigh;

"I knew when my mother died when I was 12 years old, something special was happening around me, whether it was my Mom encouraging me from the Spirit World, I'm not sure, but I quickly learned to embrace what was given to me and as the years grew, so did I. I have come here as an Empowerment Expert and Healing Facilitator, Clairaudient, Tarot Reader, Voice Recognition Psychic. I am also a gifted Clairvoyant, Certified Chakra Balance Instructor, Medium and Intuitive Life Coach who teaches people to move forward with compassion and grace. I teach my clients how to uncover their own personal power and life potential."

Leigh will be just one of many accurate and gifted intuitives we will have available for you at the fair.

Nice Letters We Get

My name is Zara and I'm a regular reader of Maria Shaw.
I'd like to thank you for the excellent information I've found on mariashaw.com; it's always a great pleasure to read your articles and I have subsequently become a loyal reader.
I live in Scotland
thanks for reading I hope you have a good week.
Kind Regards,
Dr. Zara Dobson

Maria, I refer to your explanation of the Cardinal Climax often. I think it is the most concise and comprehensive tome on this subject that I have read. Since my birthday is March 23rd, the Cardinal Climax has rearranged my life. After bankruptcy, divorce and a move to a new city, I am now looking for a way to support my three children myself. Luckily, I heard about the Climax before my situation started to unravel, thus preparing me for major change. I just re-read your article to keep me going forward, knowing that all will end up much better than I could have ever dreamed. So far, so good, but I have much more change to come before I can rest easy.

I enjoy your newsletter and love your style of writing. I look forward to seeing it, so thank you for your time and effort.

Maria,
I'm still blown away by your reading. It brought me peace. For years I have been wondering why...and now I can't ask that question anymore. Wow, that brings such peace. ML

Maria's note: In June, I did a phone reading for ML and told her about a past life and how it was affecting her current relationship. I gave her details and the name of a woman (ML was this woman in a former lifetime) and the area she lived in the 1800's. I saw the woman was from a wealthy family that had something to do with the railroad or building cities. I was able to describe this lady's appearance and give a name. My client did some homework on the details and found this woman in some historical notes and information. She was even able to locate a photo which matched the description from my reading. I love it when this stuff happens! It never ceases to amaze me. Our past lives still have an impact on your current lifetime. Without going into personal details for my client, this former lifetime we found, was affecting a current relationship. Understanding the past, helped her make peace with the present.

And some closing business,

• I have openings for day and evening phone consultations now through the 28th..
• Be sure to join me on Facebook as Maria Shaw Lawson!
• If you only have one question you need answered, you can go to my website store and order a one question reading through email.
• And please feel free to forward this newsletter to your friends.

Enjoy your summer, Maria
