Dear John
Infinite blessings, and Happy New Year to you and yours!
Maeikisala and I are mostly settled into our new Asheville home, and are very happy to be here. This morning we reflected on what's changed for us in the last year, and were delighted to find our lives improved in so many ways!
Our new residence is a clear improvement. In addition, Maeikisala and I are much more deeply soul blended then a year ago. Our shamanic partnership has matured quickly, so that Maeikisala now requires little or no guidance from me during Shamanic Healing client sessions. And we both have bonded much more deeply with our "tribe" that meets every week to study the Law of One.
I launched a successful life coaching practice in 2018, and my webmaster and I completed most of the work on my new AstroShaman site. (It will launch ... whenever it's ready!) There's more, but I won't test your patience by extending the list any further. Suffice it to say that the year just past was, once again, the best year of my life so far. May the same be true for you in 2019!

Psychedelic Book Review: How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan
The 175+ journeys I’ve taken with psychoactive plant medicine have done more to accelerate my healing and spiritual awakening than anything else. So I took notice when mega-popular author Michael Pollan published a book on the healing power of psychedelics. I devoured all 477 pages … then went back to the beginning and read the entire book again. It’s that good!
Pollan doesn’t need a lot of help from me to promote his book. How to Change Your Mind: What the New Science of Psychedelics Teaches Us About Consciousness, Dying, Addiction, Depression, and Transcendence is a #1 New York Times bestseller, a New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018, and a New York Times Notable Book. Time Magazine once named Pollan one of the 100 most influential people in the world. When he gets excited about something, so do a lot of other people. And I’m excited that he’s excited about psychedelics!
Pollan did extensive research for How to Change Your Mind, and he covers a lot of ground. He describes how LSD was a universally acclaimed wonder drug in the 1950s and early 60s ...

2019 Forecast Video: 1600 Views Already + Lots of Likes!
I'm delighted that so many people have already watched my free 2019 astrology forecast video, and are giving it such a positive reception! When I checked YouTube on January 1, the video had already received over 1600 views, plus 87 likes (and only one dislike).
If you haven't watched it yet, the timing is perfect: 2019 is here! And you certainly don't have to watch the whole video at once. It's so packed with information that it actually might be better to view it over several sittings. In 109 information-packed minutes, I explain the year’s most impactful events … and how you can partner with them to make your life more wonderful!
2019 offers a potent mix of astrological challenge and opportunity. Neptune is a major player, strongly energizing opportunities for spiritual awakening and inspired creativity. The year-long triple conjunction of Saturn, Pluto and the South Node in Capricorn is a titanic force to be reckoned with. It can give you tremendous opportunities for psychological healing, and can also help you become an unstoppable force achieving incredible things!
This video covers all this and much, much more … including special sections on how transits, progressions and solar arcs will affect the charts of the US and Donald Trump. And I've included a detailed table of contents, complete with video timings. This lets you return to this video throughout 2019, easily jumping right to the events and time frames you want.

Two powerful eclipses happen in January, with the first one just four days away! The following interpretations only summarize the most important eclipse effects. But in a nutshell …
Capricorn Solar Eclipse
A Capricorn Solar Eclipse lines up on January 5 (8:29 pm, 15°25′ Capricorn). It powerfully energizes accomplishment, maturity, good time management, efficient planning and implementation.
One of this eclipse’s major aspects is a Saturn-Neptune sextile, which empowers Law of Attraction manifestation and embodied awakening. The Sun and Moon also join forces with the no-nonsense conjunction of Saturn and Pluto. This potent duo excels in catalyzing shadow work. If used skillfully, they offer extraordinary opportunities for accelerated personal growth! |

Leo Blood Moon TotalLunar Eclipse
A Leo Lunar Eclipse will redden the sky on January 21 (12:16 am, 0°51′ Leo). The total phase of this Blood Moon Total Lunar Eclipse will be visible throughout North and South America, as well as western parts of Europe and Africa.
This lunation invites the release or adjustment of leadership, public recognition, playfulness and more. Amazingly, it contains three major aspect patterns – a Grand Cross, a Kite and a Thor’s Hammer! These aspect patterns illuminate a wide range of life-affirming opportunities: getting your message out to the world, breakthroughs in healing, amplified creative inspiration and much more.

Empowering and Soul-Affirming
"My session with Benjamin was a profoundly insightful and illuminating soul guidance. His clarity of purpose, deep knowledge, warmth, and humor made the session an incredible experience which has affirmed, deepened, clarified, and named many of the intuitive messages and themes I have been experiencing all my life but that I wasn't fully honoring.
"I feel that after our session I have shed a skin. As well, I am so grateful he taught me an invocation to let the divine do the driving. Amazing!!
— Christina Audas, December 28, 2018 (5-star review)
Best Reading I've Ever Had
"I’ve studied astrology and had many astrology readings in the last 25 years. I just had a reading with Benjamin and it was BY FAR the most helpful of any I have ever had. He knows astrology inside out, and offers his sessions from a high state of consciousness that allows clients to hear what they most need to hear for their highest good.
"Benjamin helped me understand what I am here to learn, how I might best grow and serve, thereby finding true fulfillment and happiness. It was incredible.
