Autism is not a handicap or a disability; it is a sign of the awakening of very powerful intellectual abilities, and it is a gift that needs intense stimuli and encouragement. When that awakening starts, the physical abilities the child has already developed get sidelined as the brain moves into extreme overdrive, and intense fascination with what is going on inside itself captures the child’s attention.  The basic skills that the child was building are no longer interesting; they are boring and they get ditched as the infinitely creative inner world expands exponentially for the child.  The child is not shutting down but growing intellectually at an incredible pace that allows no time for basic motor and social skills to continue normal development.  If this is realized and the child is enthusiastically allowed to freely develop this inner world, then s/he will pick up the basics later, and possibly rather slowly because the inner world is so much more interesting and exciting than the humdrum activities that most small children are engaged in.  Remember, the world you experience is illusory, and Reality lies within!

Disseminating Moon Phase: sharing, teaching, communication

Moon: Gemini

Ruling Mahavidya:  Shodashi (with Matangi)

If you can transmute the fiery energy of anger/dissatisfaction into a heart-warming embrace, you will recognize and experience the real beauty of today.

The feeling of comfort and home is the inherent imprint in today's energy.  We fuel the homefires in different ways, often while connected with those we love and those with whom we are like-minded, but in the end it all comes back to our personal, inner connection with the Divine.  Today, our "heart-warming embrace" is with something greater than ourselves, however we define it - Higher Self, God, Source, Spirit, Gaia-Sophia and the Aeons in the Galactic Center, the Originator - all of the above and/or others.  This embrace with the Divine radiates out from the heart and into the field - the world around us.

Today is the last day of the Disseminating Moon phase, the phase where we endeavor to share with others, communicate our thoughts and ideas, and teach as well as learn.  It's a very "interconnected" time.  The communications, messages, information, and insights about what has transpired during this lunar month (with empahsis on the New Moon phase and the Full Moon phase) are exceptionally powerful in their ability to create change.  They are further empowered by discussion and sharing with others, as this puts on more brainpower to decode and understand them.  Synchronicities fly during Disseminating Moon phase, and synchronicity is one of the Divine's preferred methods of co-creation with us.  To catch synchronicities, we have to be paying attention and listening to others.

As the waves subside somewhat it is time to take stock of the situation around you, and indeed within. For now, much has been shifted about, and it can be hard to discern where you are at the moment. So take it slow, and pick your way carefully forward, as you are bound to find things in the most unexpected of places. For now, nothing will seem the same ever again, as you have all been through a veritable maelstrom of energetic upheavals. And just like a boat being tossed about on open sea, nothing that is not securely fastened will be found in the same position as before you entered these high seas.

Recent research from the University of Toronto has confirmed that even short-term use of cinnamon can significantly reduce blood pressure – especially among those who are prediabetic or type-2 diabetic. The researchers conducted a systematic review study of clinical trials using cinnamon between 2000 and 2012. The researchers found three clinical trials that met their quality requirements. The researchers then meta-analyzed the results of the studies, and determined that the short-term use of cinnamon results in an average drop in systolic blood pressure of over 5 mmHg, while diastolic blood pressure is reduced by an average of 2.6 mmHg.

The most recent clinical study on blood pressure and cinnamon involved 59 subjects who had type-2 diabetes. They were randomized and either given 1,200 milligrams of cinnamon per day or a placebo. After twelve weeks, the cinnamon group's systolic blood pressure reduced by 3.4 mmHg on average.
