Days of rain in the Southeast have left roads underwater and one person dead, while a major river in Georgia is observing dangerously-high bacteria levels.

"(On Tuesday), the heaviest rain band targets a swath from Delaware west across the D.C. area into eastern West Virginia with 1 to 2 inches of rain," said weather.com meteorologist Nick Wiltgen. "Wednesday and Thursday will bring showers into the Northeast, but the nozzle-like focus of heavy rain will weaken into scattered nuisance showers."

Dear friends, dear family! Yes, we would like to extend our warmest welcome home to you all, for you have truly passed the border and returned back to your former glory in so many ways. We know that for some of you, this will leave many a question mark within your mind, for you fail to see anything different in your life, or even in your physical body, and so you will think ”what on earth are they talking about?” So let us explain a little bit about what has happened in these last few days.

For as you consciously opened that last door into the very core of your heart, whether that was before, during or even after the Gathering many of you took part in, you also removed the last obstacle standing in your way. For know that this is how this has always been decided, the choice must be yours, and yours only. No one or no thing can force you to surrender to yourself, that is only your decision, and yours alone. But when you do make that decision, no one and no thing can stand in your way either. So as you say YES to yourself, All of creation will listen, and the doors will all open as if by magic. For then, and only then, can you step into your true self.

Sighting the Sombrero

The Sombrero Galaxy is one of the better-known photographs of night sky phenomenon.  But where to find it in the night sky?  It's not as difficult as it might seem, and Saturn helps point the way for the next few weeks as well.  With a fairly high surface brightness, along with several nearby double stars that are worth observing (even if you can't find or see the galaxy), get to know this area of sky this week while the Moon stay mostly out of the way and provides darker skies.  For a printable star chart of this area, use Star Chart #11 here at Eyes on the Sky, and look for M104 in the lower right hand corner near Corvus.  (Saturn will not be on this star chart.)

The moon will block the sun in a potentially spectacular solar eclipse this week — a celestial event that will transform the sun into a cosmic "ring of fire" in the daytime sky.

The ring-shaped solar eclipse , known as an annular eclipse, will occur Thursday and Friday (May 9 and 10). Weather permitting, the eclipse will be visible in certain parts of Australia and the Southern Pacific Ocean, where the local time will be Friday.

The Oracle Report

Balsamic Moon Phase - Moon in Taurus

Ruling Mahavidya - Chinnamasta 

Energetically speaking, the Sun transforms into something different every day.  At sunrise, a new day is born.  Today we will feel the full relief that comes at the end of a powerful transit of the Black Moon.  Over the past month, the Black Moon made a line with the Galactic Center itself - the home of the artistic engineers who, after being given/gifted the raw stuff of life force from Source/Spirit/Divine One/God/Godhead, configured life in our galaxy.
