Such a beautiful snowy day today here in Frankfort! Looking out the window of the clinic this morning reminded me of the lecture Joseph and I gave last month on the upcoming year, the year of the Dragon. At the end we discussed the weather patterns for this year. And they have held true to form thus far! From the beginning of the Chinese New Year (February 4th until April 4th) is a guest weather pattern of alternating heat and cold on top of the host weather pattern of the windiness of spring. We can certainly see that play out in Kentucky with incredibly warm weather, a tornado a few days ago, and now blankets of snow! Expect this kind of weather fun to keep up for another month or so...

 Join us for our free 2nd Friday Lecture on March 9th! This lecture will discuss the Yi Jing (I Ching- often translated as The Book of Changes), a classic Chinese divination text that traces its origin to well before 2000 B.C. Learn the history behind the text and learn to use the divination techniques at home.  A truly wonderful addition to one's life! Friday March 9th, 7-8p. TLC in the blue room. The Friday night lecture is free and open to the public. Refreshments provided 


The Friday night lecture is a small introduction to a series of 1-day intensives on the classical Chinese divination text the Yi Jing. The first 1-day intensive is the Sunday after the lecture, Sunday March 11th.  In this class we will share our knowledge on the text: including history, translation recommendations, learn to read hexagrams, learn the trigrams, etc. This first class will go over the basics from an intellectual standpoint, and from a personal standpoint you will begin to build your own relationship with the book. First course in a series of 3 courses for building mastery.  
1-day intensive class Sunday March 11th 12-4p. $25 a person. Contact Emaline at emaline@thelightclinic.org or call 502-330-4233 to register.

Happy Valentine's Day! This is a day full of love, both romantically and spiritually. If you are able to open your heart you can feel all the love around you, from people in your lives and from the universe. We are all always completely loved. Today is a day to celebrate that!


I just came across a message from Lorna Byrne, a modern day Irish mystic who is able to see angels. She tells us angels are around us all the time. We are never alone! And each of us has our own guardian angel that loves us unconditionally. See if you can feel that love today.

And from the great Irish mystic Lorna Byrne: "Christmas is a time to put aside any differences or irritations within our families and our community. Let us all try this Christmas to open our hearts even to those who we may have had rows with or not talked to for years. Sometimes families have fought over things which on reflection are quite trivial, families have fought over money, over things said or done. Sometimes after a marriage break up or a divorce people can end up quite isolated – even homeless. This is a time for opening your heart – and your door and welcoming people in... By making someone feel wanted this Christmas, by showing them some love you can give the gift of hope this Christmas – you can be a lifeline to someone by reaching out with a pure heart and expecting nothing in return."
