Hi Maria!

Congratulations on your newspaper adventure! Very exciting and perfect for you! Whoohoo! I could not be more delighted with your happiness and success. You so deserve it! Lisa Joiner

Congrats! I am pleased to read of your new opportunity. I wish you the very best. It is absolutely wonderful for you! 22! Gina

I have only just found Maria's site and now receive her newsletter, I search and search for endless hours as in my work as a spiritual counselor and coach I use many tools to enhance the development of my clients - one of these is the use of astro influences, however I am no astrologer and cannot even make head nor tail most of time and no matter how hard I try I find it so frustrating when I can feel there is a turn of events happening and know it because of some astrological influence. Yay for Maria's newsletter which now helps me explain and even justify some of the events to the people I am helping !! So just to say thank you so much !

On a short note...... this week psychically and in many of the lives of my clients extraordinary changes and developments have taken place - things which I have felt would happen and now all is explained with your last letter so I am pleased that I also picked up something but now have the clarification !

Kind wishes, love and blessings

Maria: I have sent u a friend request but really need ur insight at ur next Saginaw or Midland fair. I ALWAYS see Betty but I really want ur insight as well. By the way I am hooked on Ms. Betty. I have tried others but man she just gets me! Just wanted u to know that....

Hi Maria, first off just want to say I think you are great I went and seen you about 8 years ago in Bay City at the Tropic Sun (I believe that is what it was called lol) and EVERY thing that you said has come true.

I was wondering if you do internet readings at all, and if so how much are they? Thanks for any info S.

Yes I do voice mail and email readings as well as phone readings. Visit mariashaw.com and click on services to get the details. Maria

This is an article from one of my talented readers Midge Miller....

Hello Star Seeds:

Thank you for all the kind messages since the last Cosmic Connection Convention. It is always such a joy and privilege to see and work with you.

As you know 2012 has been a humdinger when it comes to earth changes. I have experienced many profound anomalies "The Pink Light" a phenomena that preceded an enormous elevation of paranormal activities, like spirit visitations non translucent in nature and heightened E.S.P. just to name a couple. I will send more information in the next article. But for now, let me make some things clear, the dates in June that are most significant are June 5th and June 6th. They are so because of a Venus Transit on June 5th when Venus crosses the face of the Sun for the last time in more than 100 years. However, 1 hour and 44 minutes later the Moon in full nature covers up the planet Pluto. 8 years ago when Venus transited the Sun, it was a spectacular sight. In this year, there is something very special about to happen. The day before all of this happens the Moon will be in a full Lunar eclipse, the Earth will be in between the Sun, Venus and the Moon. There will be an intense magnetism from this arrangement upon our beloved planet. Venus will be in conjunction with the Sun in Gemini (an Air sign) and will be passing a Square with Mars in Virgo (An Earth Sign). Air and Earth make for tornados and dust storms. And when the Moon covers Pluto in Capricorn (another Earth sign), they will be in Square to Uranus in Aries (a Fire sign). Fire and Earth can be volcanic or tectonic. This kind of conjunction is known at a "T Square!" The Moon pulls at the Sun and Venus with Earth between feeling the tension. T-Square is considered by most astrologers to be extremely conflicting and up-ending.

And Thank you Cynthia for your input with me on this topic.

As for me, I am looking at this as a good omen unlike others who like Chicken Little cry "the sky is falling." My medicine work for our tribe is concerned more with the insight of self-illumination that we will be gifted as a result of this phenomenon. Let's look at this in perspective. There will be effects as a result of this convergence especially in Peru, Japan, Guatemala, Chili, Iceland, Indonesia, Australia, the California Coast and in special areas where we have been told our "fault lines" are compromised. However, we can affect these areas by prayer and Reiki Energy as well as purposeful meditation directing love and balance to the quality of our purity of intent.

We have had an enormous awakening since our recent photon bombardment. Light is emanating everywhere. These photons can be seen with the naked eye now, no microscopes needed here. Also, our D.N.A. is changing to accept our divine perception on a grander scale. Let's not wait for December 21, 2012 to welcome this "new age." Let's grab on to our spiritual brass ring and hang on tight, it will be a beautiful ride. We don't want to miss a thing. Journal, meditate, charge your crystals, become the observer not the observed. Love like you never lived or loved before, embrace this spectacle like a wide eyed innocent child and enter the gates of the sanctum of your heavenly kingdom.

With Love, Light and Blessings

Astro News
By Maria Shaw

The month ahead gives us a chance to look at how far we have come this new year; the changes we have made and/or the decisions we have made to move into a new direction. As I have wrote in previous columns, 2012 is the year of change as 2012, numerology-wise, equals the number 5; which is all about change!

One of the changes many people will be making over the next forty days is a change in relationship status. Venus which rules love and partnerships is going retrograde May 15th for 40 days. Many of us will be examining our personal relationships and either move forward or end them. Jupiter in Taurus is making aspects to Pluto which rules death and transformation. It is also making aspects to Uranus, which rules change. There will be some changes coming very soon for many of you in the area of partnerships. Some may be expected. Others may not. But because Jupiter is involved, they may be for the best.

There will be some lightbulbs going off in your head now about your love life. Some of you may feel as if you have sacrificed a lot for your mate, thinking that would please him or her when really they didn't want the things you offered up! Coming to terms with the past, the present and your future is the theme. You may decide how to refocus your energies and your life with or without this newfound knowledge.

Something is going to happen this week or perhaps someone is going to say something about your relationship that will cause you to really understand what's it all been about. If you have a partner that has been holding in resentment or a grudge against you, or perhaps you are toward your mate, it's coming out!!!!

The New Moon on May 20th at 7:48 PM EDT is a Solar Eclipse. This one relates to something you were doing 18 years ago. You are coming to a realization or finishing up something you started back in 1994.

Speaking of looking back to the past, the full moon last Saturday wraps up what we have been working on since November 2011. The new moon then, started a specific cycle in our lives. Then, there was a life crisis, directed from that, which hit in the summer of 2011. Now we will see the results of these events come full circle.

There'll be lots of realizations and "coming to terms" with the most important people in your life this week. What lies beneath the surface is bubbling to the top. Yu will uncover a lot of stuff you or your partner have been repressing. Time for healing growth and moving forward!!!

Have a good week and Happy Mothers Day to women everywhere

Maria
