Summer Issue 2017: New Horizons for our Island

by Admin July 27, 2017

written by Admin

city network technology

By Calodagh MacCumiskey

Just as the moon affects the tides and our own mental and emotional wellbeing, planetary transits have a powerful effect on everything, including the weather, the global economy, countries’ economies, and our own individual lives. Every event and being has its own unique chart, and is continually affected by planetary transits as life unfolds and time passes. In this article, I am taking a look at Ireland’s chart to see what is coming up over the next few months.

It has always been hard for the Irish economy to find balance. The economy is either very strong or very weak – a feeling of feast or famine – because of the position of the Moon in the second house in Sagittarius’ sign of the country’s chart. We have difficulty in maintaining steady, balanced growth. We also experience growth in different parts of the country at the same time. We are prone to economic extremes. For example, the economy around Dublin and other urban areas has been strengthening over the last few years, but many rural counties have a feeling that they are struggling.

The chart shows that more attention needs to be given to the youth, to solving their problems and developing them. Families need more support to stay together and maintain strong relationships. Ireland as a nation has wonderful strengths, and we will have ample opportunity to develop them and achieve strong results over the next few years. We will also see more women come into positions of authority, which will inspire positive change for society.

From July 22, 2017 – when we enter the Jupiter Mercury period – the next two years will be very promising for the Irish economy. Transit-wise, most significantly, Jupiter is moving from Virgo to Libra on September 12, 2017. Industries in Ireland that will do particularly well are food, medicine, hospitality, consultancy, education and tourism. All of these industries are related to the moon. It is a great time to boost trade and exports, and develop our strengths on the global stage in these and related sectors.

As well as the sectors mentioned above, it is an excellent time for innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship. A new shape will come to the Irish economy. New energy harvesting techniques will be developed. There is a lot of untapped potential and promise in Ireland related to developing teachers and education modules in the fields of construction, energy and other industries related to the planet Mars. These areas will all grow significantly.

Rahu will move from Leo to Cancer, and Ketu from Aquarius to Capricorn, on September 9. This will further strengthen Ireland and attract additional foreign direct investment. Foreign banks will buy more assets from Irish banks. Overall property prices will further rise around the country.

Jupiter’s transit is also going to play a very important role in strengthening and uniting the EU, which has been under more intense pressure as a unit since Saturn moved into Sagittarius in January 2017. This will benefit Ireland’s relative position in the EU and globally. Jupiter’s move to Libra will significantly affect the relationship between three major players on the world stage; China, the US and Russia. There will be more discussion, aggression and competition between these countries as they all jostle for power and try to influence the global balance of power in their own favour.

Yocella Magic: We chat to Kitty Maguire

If you have a passion for live music and natural wellbeing, the Groove Festival is perfect for you! This two-day summer festival is renowned for its combination of great food, fun activities, and high-quality performances by Irish and international music acts. It will take place in Kilruddery House and Gardens, Bray, Co. Wicklow, on the 19th and 20th of August 2017.

This year, Groove has introduced an all-new health, fitness and wellbeing precinct called Thrive. One of the many exciting events taking place at Thrive is a Yocella session on Sunday the 20th of August at 11.30 a.m, led by the experienced yoga and dance teacher Kitty Maguire. Yocella participants will be guided through a gentle yin yoga practice by Kitty, while cellist Anna Marcossi will provide live musical accompaniment. Ahead of her appearance at the festival, we spoke to Kitty to find out more.

What do you feel is unique about yin yoga?

Yin yoga is ultimately a self-acceptance practice – very different to the acrobatic, vibrant, yang yoga practices that many people are familiar with. Yin yoga is about ‘coming home’ to your body, in a sense. It’s not about striving for the best body, the best poses, or any other attachments that we don’t need.

How did you come up with the idea to combine yin yoga with cello music?

I always loved classical music, and I originally trained as a ballet dancer before moving on to teaching. I’ve been working as a yoga teacher for four or five years now, and as I began to work with yin yoga, I knew that cello music would be very supportive in that kind of space. I find the cello to be a very grounded instrument. Its music is very deep and strong, in comparison to other types of music that can really stimulate the body and become a distraction! Yocella is about completely accepting and nurturing yourself, and being in the present moment.

What are your future plans for Yocella?

Yocella is just one year old, and I hope it continues to grow! I’m holding a Yocella’s First Birthday event to commemorate that, from 3.00 p.m. to 5.30 p.m. on August 13th in St. Kevin’s Hall, Bloomfield Avenue, Portobello. It was a real honour to be asked to appear at Groove Festival, as there will be so many other fantastic teachers there. Being at the festival definitely won’t be a typical work environment for me, with so many exciting events going on!

To learn more about Kitty’s work, visit her website, www.kittymaguire.com. Enjoy 10% off tickets to Groove Festival (plus kids 12 and under go free!) Visit http://groovefestival.tickets.ie/ and enter code POSITIVELIFE. This offer is valid until July 31st.

From our readers: A Wonderful Creacon Lodge Review!

by Admin May 25, 2017

written by Admin

In February this year we were able to gift one of our readers with a overnight stay for two at the wonderful Creacon Lodge Wellness Retreat in Co. Wexford, Ireland. The lovely Emma Cooper was the winner and she has some wonderful things to say:

‘Really loved my weekend at Creacon Lodge – it is a perfect choice for a relaxing, weekend escape! The facilities, food, staff and treatments are all excellent. Creacon has a lovely peaceful/chilled vibe and we were made to feel welcome the moment we arrived. The staff there are so warm and friendly and they really went out of their way to take care of us during our stay. I was really impressed with the standard of our accommodation – our bedroom was newly renovated, really stylishly decorated, spotlessly clean, really comfortable and we had a wonderful view of the garden. Although it is a wellness centre, I would describe the accommodation at Creacon as more ‘upmarket boutique style’ as it was of such a high standard. There are also so many lovely areas/ rooms to explore and chill out in while you are there. They have a beautiful hall where they run yoga and meditation classes. The garden is also very pretty and peaceful and it was lovely to just explore/spend time in it while we were there. The food was also fabulous – all natural, nutritious and very tasty! I booked a treatment while I was there too – a heavenly, deep tissue massage with Susanne, who is an excellent therapist. I highly recommend Creacon Wellness Retreat and would like to say a big thank you to all the staff there!’
