The Spiritual Day of Emancipation

August 1 men have an unusual sensitivity and empathy for women, and for their own feminine side.
The 1st day of the month has a unique energy.
The Number One

Fresh Start
The Number One is about new beginnings, where there will be plenty of opportunities to create a fresh start. Opportunities play a very important role in catapulting you to where you need to be. It's in your best interest to follow them wherever they may lead.
When you are open to new beginnings, the Universe will send you the next logical step to take.
With the Number One you are being encouraged to find the inner strength and courage to step into the unknown - feel the fear and do it anyway. Create a brand new life. When we stop looking outside ourselves and surrender to a soft focus, we have access to unlimited information and resources. When we stop thinking with the glass ceiling of our intellect, we have access to multidimensional wisdom from the collective conscience. Have you ever felt in total flow? Perhaps when speaking about something profound, that you have absolute faith in, you have heard your words articulately unfold. At other times, when you have doubt, you must watch your words, and they come out disjointed, only hinting at what you are trying to say.
New Opportunities
New opportunities may present
themselves in the area of relationships,
home, or career. There might be a chance
to move, study or travel, or embark on
an exciting new endeavor. Regardless,
you must pay attention to the signs and
seize the moment it arises.

August 1 and The Magician

Healing With the Color Yellow: Video
The Magician
The Magician, who symbolizes intellect, communication, information, as well as magic. The Magician energy can be seen in many ways, one of which is that the Magician recognizes the cyclical and unending nature of life and is empowered by this understanding. Positive energies suggested include diplomatic skill and shrewdness.
The Magician and The Bible
Exodus 7:8-10 8 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, 9 "When Pharaoh says to you, `Perform a miracle,' then say to Aaron, `Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,' and it will become a snake." 10 So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD commanded. Aaron threw his staff down in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a snake.
The Sunflower
The Sunflower embodies the energy of the Magician. The power of manifestation lives within. All the information necessary to create life is contained in the seed; yet it is the elements that make the sunflower grow. Wind strengthens the stalk; water feeds the plant; fire is converted to energy by the leaves; earth anchors the root. Nourish your ideas with the elements and watch them bloom into being. Receive Divine light from the unseen realms, shape it into form, then give it all away. Sunflower roots travel for miles underground bringing nutrients to the flower. When it matures, the flower head bends to the earth and unleashes thousands of seeds. Be a conduit of transformation for others.

Focus on those feelings. Ask the book your question, or for general insight, and wait for it to flip open to a page by itself. In your mind's eye, look at the page. What do you see? An image? Words? Or do you get a feeling? Thank the book for its help and slowly open your eyes.

August 1 and Being Activation
AFFIRMATION
Repeat this affirmation several times daily, or during meditation (masculine/feminine).
- I start each day with an awareness of what I choose to be, which naturally inspires what I choose to do.
A “TO BE” LIST
Try writing a “to be” list instead of a “to do” list. Often we get so caught up in being busy and doing things that we forget to embody a sense of “being”. Examples of states at being include creative, helpful, generous, joyful, energetic, affectionate, inspiring.
I ENJOY BEING…
