(editor's note: This week is perfect for a brilliant view of Venus!

I'm so happy to report that news of activities happening outside and around our planet continue to intrigue more and more people!
Just a few years ago, "space geeks" were the only ones interested in all the wonderous events of our neighboring planets, stars, and galaxies. Now it seems everyone has their eyes to the skies!
The view from down here is a special vantage point, so I hope you enjoy this report and get a better understanding of how important YOU are to the beautiful Cosmos we all call home.

See Dazzling Venus at Its Brightest This Week

Step outside any night this week about an hour after sunset and have a look at the western sky. The first thing that will catch your eye is the brilliant planet Venus.

(editor's note: Monsanto and other corporations who produce genetically modified (GM) crops have been notoriously silent when asked by consumer groups to identify themselves in food packaging. Science to the rescue! These products are being targeted by bioluminescent technology. This branch of "light science" makes GM products easier to track both in the field and anywhere along the food and drug processing chain.

In my daily treks through the news files of the world I'm amazed at the depth and scope of emerging science technologies! In the bigger picture of our changing world, we understand that these are stepping stones towards joining our Galactic community of scientists.

Bioluminescent Technology for Easy Tracking of GMO

(editor's note: Coral reefs have delicate ecosystems which take years to cultivate. In this report, a new study shows how climate changes have affected the ocean currents and are creating new places for corals and fish in the Pacific along the equator.

Rather than become disheartened by the negative news of mainstream media, I challenge you to look deeper -to find healing earth heroes in your own community. There are people all over this beautiful jewel we call Gaia working every day to correct the damage we have done. They are doing the physical clean up work, or putting the intellectual thought into solving these problems. Please join me in sending them all energies of love and support.

Pacific Islands On Equator May Become Refuge for Corals in a Warming Climate Due to Changes in Ocean Currents

(A) new study shows that climate change could cause ocean currents to operate in a surprising way and mitigate the warming near a handful of islands right on the equator. As a result these Pacific islands may become isolated refuges for corals and fish.

(editor's note: Tired of being tired? Rather than cover up those warning signs with caffeine or other stimulants, today I bring you some natural remedies designed to reduce fatigue so your body can heal and energize.

In time, the science of light and sound will advance so that we can update our medical centers, similar to those used on our Healing Ships.
Awakening within us all is the ability to completely heal ourselves.
As our bodies evolve from carbon-based to a crystalline-based structure, we must all learn how to properly nourish and treat our physical body.
Through this "Natural Remedies" segment I hope to introduce you to methods of healing you may not have tried, as well as building your knowledge base so you can help others.
~Be well, all my Love, Boo)

Life as we know it now is pretty rough. The demands we place on our bodies can carry over into our sleep, so even that restorative phase is less effective. If you are tired of feeling tired, these remedies may give you some relief.

The Environment Agency (EA) has warned of localised flooding across parts of southern and eastern England, the Midlands and Wales.

Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, which was devastated by flooding in July 2007, is on alert and the EA has set up an incident room there along with two others in the Midlands and another in the Wessex area.

Forecasters warned that more rain is expected to fall in the coming week with southern and western areas likely to see the worst of the wet weather.

The symbol for the degree of the position of the Sun today (the Sabian symbol) is " a woman sprinkling flowers."  This is quite fitting for "Beltane Eve."  Beltane is the ancient celebration of spring and fertility, which later became May Day.  It is directly associated with flowers.  Flowers are external evidence of internal beauty.  They are a creative manifestation of the dreaming of Gaia.  So today's energy is about spreading your internal beauty out into the world.  Consciously look for flowers today and when you see one, reinforce your connection with the planet.  The planet is a sentient being and we are sentient beings of her creation, gifted with the opportunity to participate in her journey.
