The sale is going fast and furious. It pleases me to no end to see these wonderful books finding new homes. Another book lover I know told he felt he had to "rescue" all the books he would find in used book stores. "It's a good thing they're not puppies." Me, I'd rather have the books, too.

Chapter Book Sale

2008-01-23T13:13:00.000-08:00

The late Helen Bartholomew donated a amazing library of books to the chapter. I was called to make arrangements and was floored when I found seven huge boxes of books being loaded into my car. I've started to organize and catalog the books. This list is less than half of them. I just stared at the mess for a few days. The list that follows has some rare gems and hard to find titles.
Email me at JocatO413@aol.com with the books/prices you wish to obtain. It's first come, first serve. I will then tell you what's still available and add a modest fee for shipping. All checks should be written out to NCGR and don't forget it's considered a donation and is tax deductable as is your membership fee!

With a Little Help From My Friends- Trish Woods

2008-01-06T08:46:00.000-08:00

I'm posting the following newsletter information from my good friend and mentor Trish Woods. I was introduced to Trish by a chapter member and I knew from the get go that she was the real deal. I've listened to psychics before, but Trish was so dead on target about what the important issues were and the messages I needed at the time. She really impressed me. I developed my psychic skills and meduiumship under her tutorage. I'm proud to know her.

Trish Woods- January 2008

Happy 2008! Happy New Year! A friend of mine sends me spiritual meditations each day. Yesterdays had the following in its contents (thanks Don!), and, as it was so perfect for the new year, I thought I'd share it.

We spend January 1 walking through our lives,room by room,drawing up a list of work to be done,cracks to be patched.Maybe this year,to balance the list,we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives ...not looking for flaws,but for potential.~ Ellen Goodman

Isnt this is a great way to take in the new year? Looking for our own personal potential. You know its easy to see our own flaws - we have them numbered and hanging up first in our mental closets of personal inventory. But how many of us can look past the glum, the routine of our responsibilities, and see the exciting potential for change in our lives? Either great or small? Perhaps this month, this beginning of 2008, we can dig around in our closets and find room for growth or change, and do so with self love and encouragement. Blessings for your new year!

Winter-Spring 2008 Newsletter

2007-12-17T22:52:00.000-08:00

NCGR Northern NJ Chapter

National Council for Geocosmic Research Winter/Spring 2008
An International Astrology Organization

Its time for elections again. Our bylaws demand that we do this every two years. Usually, its more a matter of who is willing to do the job. I can’t recall anyone ever fighting for a post. Oh, but a girl can dream…..

I, Joanne Castro, am willing to remain as President and Jackie Slevin as VP.
Eileen King has agreed to stay on as Secretary and Adele Puleo will step in as Treasurer. If anyone that is a member of this chapter actually wants to serve or run for a post I need to know by January 15.

Ballots will be sent out and will be counted by the Ballot Committee chair Joy Taylor. She will have help to witness the count. At this point, it is merely a formality unless indeed someone wants to be included on the ballot.

This Mars Rx has really been jamming up the cardinal signs. I see the Libras overworked and struggling to keep pace. Capricorns have full plates and struggle to keep everything going. One Cancer I know is having her kitchen redone during this period and can’t cook! It certainly brings frustrations in different forms. I feel as if “my car” is stuck in neutral and I’m trying to gun it with the wheels whirring and spinning. Unfortunately, we have to suffer another month with it, but by them it’ll be driving those with late degrees in the mutables batty.

The New Year is sure to come in with a bang or a boom or some serious event with the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction triggering the Aries Point. We’ll see what Pluto does to or for the Capricorns. One Capricorn I know just told me death has been good for him lately. One unfriendly apartment neighboor passed away across the hall. He had been trying to move and the apartment he desired was given to someone else. Low and behold, the person died and the apartment is now being offered to him. He just has to wait until the family removes the belongings. I had told him I saw him getting the apartment. I even mentioned that he should expect a phone call changing things. I was trully puzzled at first when he told me he didn’t get it. I love it when I’m right.

I’ve started a blog, http://astrojo.blogspot.com, it will list meeting dates and a copy of the newsletter as well as other information and writing.

Daisy Orr – The Astrology of Multiple Intelligences
7:30 PM

Members $15, Senior Members $10, Non-members $20
To be held at the home of Iris Kippycash, 22 Jade Lane, Denville, NJ

In this lecture, the work of Howard Gardner (professor of cognition at the Harvard Graduate School of Education) will be discussed. Gardner formulated a list of seven “intelligences” which closely match the symbolic nature of the seven visible planets. This lecture will show how to combine these ideas with astrological principles in order to gain unique insights into the nature of personality.

Daisy Orr became interested in astrology at the age of eight. When she entered Rutgers University she studied with Ken Negus. She has been a member of the Astrological Society of Princeton, NJ since 1975. She has served on the board of ASP in various capacities. Daisy holds a BA in Art and a Masters in Teaching.

Happy Birthday Ken Negus!

2007-12-17T22:41:00.000-08:00

I was lucky enough to attend the party held by ASP- The Astrology Society of Princeton- for Ken Negus's 80th Birthday. Jackie Slevin and I attended representing the NNJ Chapter of NCGR. I was pleased to see Rob Hand, Arlene Nimark, Ronnie Gale Dreyer, Ken Irving and Daisy and Barry Orr as well a a roomful of others.

The party was held in a vegetarian resturant, The Zen Garden in Princeton and the food was fabulous. Absolutely fabulous and for the cost of $20 more than worth it. Whoever set up that deal gets my applause.

Ken was presented with a beautiful metal sundial for his garden. It was at least 3 feet high and quite heavy. He got some other gifts including Trump cologne. Should a Capricorn smell so successful? Of course, I told Ken I thought it smelled nice and I'd go out with him anytime. Charming fellow that he is, asked me what I was doing the next evening. He's such a sweet man.

I managed to multitask while there and pulled Arlene in to speak in March for the chapter and Daisy will speak in April. The new newsletter post will follow.

My Nodes Itch

2007-11-14T13:54:00.000-08:00

It' about time I started this blog. The Transiting Nodes are about to line up with my MC/IC axis and opportunities abound. Starting in December you can read my lively monthly star sign column on intoxicatedzodiac.com.

I just had a meeting with a radio station in New Jersey. If all goes well, I'll be wielding my psychic powers bi-monthly on a psychic chat show and supplying sun sign text messages for their listeners. Stay tuned....

Friday brings the Chapter's monthly meeting with Judi Vitale. Judi is a great speaker and I look forward to hearing her again. She never bores me and that's saying a lot.
