New Moon in Scorpio Affirmations 2011
Posted by Jana Groscost Matthews | Filed under Jana Matthews, Manifesting, New Moon, New Moon Manifesting, Self Healing, Transformation, Transmutation
An affirmation is a conscious statement that is used to counteract incorrect thoughts or beliefs by retraining the brain. The affirmation sends a new message through the brain causing a new pathway for the neurons to follow.
Affirmations are a conscious way to create a desired programming. They work as a foundation for the neurons to travel a different pathway. The subconscious reacts to the new programming by either reappraising its current beliefs or avoiding the new information. Resistance is experienced when there is a large gap between what the subconscious currently believes and the new programming.
The subconscious typically finds it easier to maintain the old programming than to challenge the perceived inner truth. This becomes evident when there is a strong inner feeling of resistance when an affirmation is stated or written.
Continually reciting or writing affirmations chips away at the subconscious resistance. Once the resistance is broken through, the subconscious re-examines the core beliefs. Depending upon the depth of the core belief influences how easily it can be reprogrammed. The subconscious may go through periods of introspection as it re-examines the layers of beliefs and learned behaviors. You may experience significant resistance to this process due to extreme traumas experienced.
As you flow through this lunar cycle, use affirmations to transmute any undesirable thoughts, patterns, and emotions so you retrain your brain with what you want to attract.
New Moon in Scorpio Affirmations:
I easily let go and go with the flow
I ride the tide of life
I accomplish what I set out to do
I express my talents and true power easily
I plunge into life and express my passions
I follow my passions
I am free

New Moon in Libra 2011
Posted by Jana Groscost Matthews | Filed under Jana Matthews, Manifesting, New Moon, New Moon Manifesting, Self Healing, Transformation, Transmutation
We usher in the New Moon in Libra on Tuesday, September 27, 2011 at 7:09am EDT (4:09am PDT). It’s the first new moon of fall and a time to gather the harvest of your hard work, acknowledging the wealth of balance, abundance, and joy.
The moon influences our emotions as well as the tides of the ocean. Around the New Moon our emotions influence us the least, contrasted to a Full Moon when our emotions are at their peak. Our emotions cloud our perceptions on a subconscious level, reflecting fears and doubts that limit what is manifested. But with each New Moon we have a few days where our emotions influence us less than any other time during the month providing clarity and freedom from emotional restraints.
Balance is the theme of this New Moon as it enters the astrological sign of Libra. With the busy summer months behind us, a sense of balance is restored as we get back into normal routines. It’s time to acknowledge areas of your life that are imbalanced, and with the support of Libra easily restore it.
Whether you’re seeing imbalance between your ego and intuition, male and female inner self or outer relationships, or the ego and intuition, Libra brings a sense of co-operation and harmony to life. We glean from Libra a sense of objectivity so we may view complex, highly emotionally charged situations with a balanced, detached approach. It’s a time to consider all options in a diplomatic way.
In honor of the New Moon we’ll be holding a FREE conference call on Monday September 26, 2011 at 9pm EDT (6pm PDT) where we’ll discuss the New Moon influences, manifesting, and visualize your goals with a guided imagery meditation. Click here to register, get conference call instructions, and a monthly reminder of upcoming New Moon calls.
Bring balance into your life with the New Moon in Libra and manifest your dreams and desires!

Gripping Fear
Posted by Jana Groscost Matthews | Filed under Jana Matthews, Manifesting, Self Healing, Transformation, Transmutation
The swimming pool was a welcome relief from the sweltering summer heat. After a long day at work, my dad and I cooled ourselves in the neighborhood pool. We swam here several times a week, but tonight was different, my dad encouraged me to jump off the high dive. I looked at him in terror.
Over the summer I had mastered jumping and finally diving off the lower board, but this new request was scary! The high dive was SO high. From the pool, the platform looked like it was a million miles away. I could see other kids climbing the ladder to the platform and wanted to join them. But there was that little voice in my head telling me, “It’s too high, it’s too scary, this isn’t safe, you’ve never done something like this before!”
Finally with a lot of coaxing from my dad I reluctantly climbed the ladder. I made it to the platform and froze. The ground was so far away. The platform was moving from the wind and rebounding from other people jumping. My heart raced. Paralyzed with fear, I stood there as my white knuckles gripped the handrail. The kids behind me were encouraging me to go, but I couldn’t move. Trying to find the courage to jump, I let a couple of kids go in front of me. There wasn’t any reason I should do this. It’s scary and I don’t like feeling this way. Finally as tears welled up in my eyes I felt defeated. Fear won. I climbed back down the ladder.
Ah, good, back on solid ground. I’ll just swim for a while and forget I ever tried that. My dad was relentless. Like many parents he used guilt and shame to get me to do something. “Look at those kids up there, they’re doing it, you can too!” I kept resisting. Next came the bribe, I’d get a candy bar if I successfully jumped. Hummm… the pot got sweeter! Mustering up the courage, I climbed the ladder again. Legs shaking, heart racing, knuckles still white, I gripped the handrail and inched toward the end of the board. I stopped in fear. The handrail didn’t extend to the edge of the board. At some point I had to let go of it and walk out onto a bouncy board. My heart wanted to do this, but my hands wouldn’t let go. I edged back to the ladder and safety.
It was getting late and dinner was waiting. Oh good, it’s over, I’m safe!
A couple of days later we were back at the pool and back to my source of fear. But this time my dad encouraged both my younger brother and me to jump. Richard didn’t even hesitate. He climbed the ladder and walked off the end of the board. Rats! He did it! Even though he didn’t say anything, he taunted me with his actions. Wait, didn’t he think about how scary the jump would be? Didn’t he think he might hit the bottom of the pool? Didn’t he think he might die because he was underwater a long time? Pressure mounted for me to be next.
I took a deep breath, saying to myself, “You can do this, Richard just did it! Are you going to let him show you up?” There’s nothing like a little competition to motivate me. I reached the platform. I walked to the end of the handrail. I’ve been here before, but it was going beyond this point that scared me. With my heart racing, I still had to make the trek to the end of the board without the support of the handrail. My shaking legs began bouncing the board. With each step I wanted to retreat to the safety of the ladder, but I kept telling myself, “I’ve got to do this!”
When I reached the end of the board I heard the faint echo’s of my dad and brother’s voice, “Jump.” I’m not sure what happened next. Did I jump? Did I fall? Splash, I hit the water. A moment of terror engulfed me as I swam to the surface. Stunned and shocked I swam towards to side of the pool. Richard and my dad were screaming with excitement. I did it! I jumped off the high dive and survived!
I probably jumped off the high dive another twenty times that day. A few days later I began diving off it, and finally diving off and swimming underwater to the other end of the Junior Olympic sized pool. Even though I didn’t realize it at the time I faced some very big fears that day; fear of the unknown, fear of death, and fear of my little brother beating me!
Remembering moments like this and drawing from them has helped me face other circumstances in my life where fears cropped up. Fears are a defense mechanism set up by the ego. It’s the voice inside saying, “This is different, what will happen if I try it? What if I fail? I don’t want to disappoint myself. I don’t want to disappoint others. I don’t want to feel ashamed for failing. I would be better off playing it safe!”
But living in safety of our past experiences doesn’t help us reach new goals.
Einstein said, “Insanity is doing the same thing expecting different results.”
The ego is the voice inside that wants to keep us safe. But the false perception of safety set up by the ego is based upon our past experiences – both successes and failures. The ego plays upon past failures, experiences, and perceived threats to preserve itself.
In a split second my fear of the unknown, death and falling was overshadowed by my younger brother doing something I was scared to do. I couldn’t let him do that! The voice in my head (the ego) was overpowered by my heart’s desire overcome my fears. Being a little kid at the time I didn’t know what fears were. But I know what they are now. I know how they paralyze my actions if I allow it.
Fear = Resistance
Resistance isn’t about the change it’s about fear of the “unknown.” The unknown is this black hole; we are blind to the possibilities because the ego’s first response is fear. What if I get hurt? What if I fail? What if I disappoint myself, again? What if I disappoint others?
Do you remember a time you when you feared trying something new? Were you able to overcome your fears? After you did it, did you ask yourself, “Why did I wait so long to try this?”
What fears are holding you back from getting what you want? Join us for the upcoming “Living an Empowered Life” 3-week teleseminar held Tuesdays, September 6, 13, 20, 2011 and learn how to overcome your fears so they no longer stop you.

New Moon in Leo Affirmations
Posted by Jana Groscost Matthews | Filed under Jana Matthews, Manifesting, New Moon, New Moon Manifesting, Self Healing
With the New Moon in Leo it’s a time to tune into our “heart’s desires”. Leo is ruled by the sun. It’s no wonder that Leo’s are the actors/actresses of the world! This lunar cycle we all benefit from being on the center stage. Use it’s powerful energy to take BIG steps towards your goals.
In conjunction with the New Moon, we are also entering the 5th Day/5th Night of the Mayan calendar. The 5th Day/Night in the Mayan calender are two of the most energetic phases, bringing consciousness to a new level. This 36 day window is the perfect time for transitions. The theme for this 9th Wave of the calendar is about Unity Consciousness. We see this in many aspects where there has been division and chaos, people are speaking up and demanding change. We will continue to see changes on a global level as well as within our own hearts.
As a foundation is crumbling, life may feel unstable. Know that your Creator has a wonderful plan in store for you; have faith in the process, and trust the outcome will be better than you could imagine. When you feel out of sorts or fearful about what’s transitioning in your life use affirmations and meditation to keep you on track.
New Moon in Leo Affirmations:
I am joyfully doing ________________
I am following my heart’s desires
I am projecting my love, out into the world, to erase all errors and to break down all barriers
I am the power of infinite love, amplifying itself
The Universe supports me mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually
