Maria Shaw's StarScopes Newsletter

Hello StarScopers

Wanted to thank many of you for the lovely birthday wishes on June 27th. I had a beautiful day. One of my highlights was when Tony Danza called in to our radio show on CBS Network and sang Happy Birthday. I think it was a little song he wrote. It meant a lot to me because as I understand it, he had just gotten off a plane at 7a.m. in Los Angeles took the time out of his tired busy schedule to make the call. Tony's special rendition set the tone for the entire day! Thanks to everyone who made my birthday fantastic!

Come see Sexy Joe and Whiny Pisces from CBS Radio.

On Our CBS Network Radio show, we had a special past life regression therapist Tanya Douglas. She did my co hosts past life sessions as well as mine. We all have felt very close since the first day we met...and I knew we had a past life connection of some sort. So we asked her to be part of our summer road show tour. Here are Tanya's notes from our session. She will be in Chicago with us July 10-13 if you would like to get a private session with her there. If there is enough interest in the New Orleans or Minneapolis area, then we will bring her to those cities as well. Contact her by email listed after the article.

Past Lives with Maria, Joe, and Matt

What is past life regression? Past life regression can be experienced through a certified Hypnotist or Hypnotherapist who helps you to view your past incarnations. That is exactly what Maria and Joe did on their final day in Mackinac Island on their special five-city radio tour this summer. Unfortunately Matt fell asleep missing out on all the fun!

Maria, Matt and Joe have all felt this unexplainable connection with each other since they first met. Several times they mentioned having past lives together among them selves and on air. Psychic glimpse gave them insight to possible past lives they shared with each other, but how could they be totally sure?

So I traveled up to beautiful Mackinac Island to aid in unraveling the past life mysteries! However Maria and Joe were in for more than they bargain for! They not only receiving a group session, but private sessions as well, lasting well into the nighttime hours.

First up was Joe and he was very eager and excited to find out what his past lives holds. We decided to use some stones and crystals to enhance his past life regression experience. Joe used a Serpentine stone beneath him lined up with the root chakra that aids in clearing any blocked areas in his chakras, and enhancing the meditative state. He also placed a rose quarts crystal in his pocket, which is excellent for healing emotional wounds, removing negativity and restoring harmony after crisis situations. Last but not least around his neck was his ever-faithful Moldavite, which helps the spiritual development and expansion of consciousness. This was definitely a powerful combination of stones.

As the session started the information began coming through quickly. Almost immediately he began to tell me about the tragedy that caused his death. He began by telling what he was wearing and what he looked like. His name was John and was originally from Louisiana but was now serving as soldier in a war. People all around him were dying. Then seen his green shirt turn red, soaked with is own blood. He had just been wounded and was bleeding out. Originally he thought it was a bullet wound but later on discovered that he was actually stabbed. This was the cause of his death in that life. The surprising twist was that even though he died he did not cross over to the Other Side just yet. Joe remained earth bound for 7 years before his wife of that life came to get him and help him return to The Other Side once more.

After his private session he told me he has a scar in the exact place where he had been stabbed in that past life. This scar was the spot where he had his gallbladder removed. Is there a connection between this scar and the past life tragedy? I believe with out a shadow of a doubt that there is a definite connection. A possible explanation of this could be, that in his past life his gallbladder was more than likely hit by the knife when he was stabbed. This was then carried over by cell memory and manifested in current life. Now could the removal of his gallbladder been avoided if he had a past life regression before the surgery? I believe that it is definite possibility but of course we will never know for sure.

He then went into yet another life. This time he was on the Titanic on it's madden voyage setting off from Southampton, England to Manhattan. His name was John Jacob Astor who was a fur trader who happened to be a very well known and rich person in that time period. Astor also ran a successful fur trading company on Mackinaw Island. Joe knew the ship was going down, saying, "we are not going to make it" and "the women and children will go first". Unfortunately he did go down with the ship and drowned. This life explained his obsession with the Titanic and his fear of water and connection to Mackinac Island.

Next up is Maria! Maria didn't just open up like a book, but was a book. She had easily seen several life times during her private session. She gave names, dates, places and events! A few of her past lives contained Joe and some of them contained Matt, but it was very evident that she spent more than just one past life with each of them. Seeing the connection she has with both of them carry over into this life.

For quite some time Maria suspected that she was a Madam of a bordello in Louisiana. During the session she discovered that she did indeed work in a bordello in Louisiana called the Arlington, but to her surprise she was not the Madam. She was only one of the working girls. Her father dropped her off at the age of 13 because her mother died and no longer wanted to take care of her. This began her life as a working girl. Remaining there until she met an untimely death at about the age of 30 when she became sick and was no longer of use to the bordello. A doctor was called in to see her. Unfortunately he was not there to help her over come her illness; rather he was there to end her life. He gave her an injection in the side of the neck intentionally induced death. Not all was bad because there to greet her and take her home to The Other Side was her mother who had left that world when she was only a child.

After the session Maria did some research and found out that the Arlington indeed existed and was owned by Josie Arlington and it resided right across from the French Quarter in Louisiana. This was undoubtedly some of her draw to New Orleans, Louisiana.

In the next live she discovered that she was living in France with her parents and siblings.Joe also showed up in this past life as an older brother. In this lifetime, they are good friends and Joe helps Maria out with whatever she needs. She says she feels he is always there if she never needs something. She also had a little brother, but unfortunately died at a very young age. Maria knew that Matt was indeed that little brother. Her nurturing feeling towards her baby brother was carried over into this life with continued feelings to care for and to protect Matt.

Now it was time for the group past life session. At the beginning of the session every one was instructed not to answer any questions out loud. This is done so that no one leads the others by implanting inaccurate or false memories. At the start of the session I asked them to go to the most recent life besides this one that they have had together and then reminded the subconscious that they will remember everything on a conscience level. From there I continued with my questions.

After the session every one started to share their experiences. Joe was in complete awe and continued to say, "This isn't possible" repeatedly over the next several hours. Not only did they see their past life clearly, but also their accounts of what they saw and experienced being exactly the same, right down to the design and color of the coat that Maria was wearing in that life.

They both lived in Manhattan in between 1930 and 1940. Joe was the boss of an advertising agency, very career driven and dedicated to his job. Maria was his secretary and worked very hard for him. Unfortunately Matt got the bad rap this lifetime, as he was the "wheeler and dealer" of the group. Maria died at 52 years old living with her niece, and Joe died of a heart attack.

Here we can see the connection that all of them seem to have with Manhattan. The roles are reversed in some cases being that Joe now works for Maria as her producer. Fortunately none of them are the wheeler-dealer this time around and they all share a magical relationship between them.

The next morning on air Joe reveled an odd incidence that had happened three weeks prior to the hypnosis sessions and, none of which I was aware of. Up on Mackinac Island he was given a DVD about its history, and as he opened it up he happened to say out loud "I need to know where to go with this show". He took off the cellophane, opened it up and found an old map of down town Manhattan subway, from the exact time period of the past life he had seen with Maria during the group session. This map clearly was out of place. Coincidence? I doubt it. He was already receiving divine clues to his past life well before his session, as many of us do!

As you can see from Maria and Joe sessions how many things from past lives can interact with the current lives on many different levels. The connection is undeniable with these three proving that many people, places, and issues can transcend time and space on a subconscious and cellular level. We as humans hold the unique ability to release these past life issues that affects us on not only a conscience level but also a subconscious level as well. It is clear that the past is the beginning!

Taurus

The month ahead is designed perfectly for Taurus the Bull. You'll find many ways to relax and enjoy the simple pleasures that life has to offer. It's also a fine time for traveling; whether close to home or out of the country. Even though gas prices are high, you'll be able to snag some great bargains to destinations you've always dreamed about. Plan a nice long vacation with family or some close friends. You are sure to have a fantastic time no matter where you go. Also, this month, listen more to other people's opinions. They may open your eyes to something you never thought of before. By taking a friend's advice to heart, new doors may open for you regarding love, career or financial opportunities.

Gemini

This month you will have opportunities to earn a lot of money quickly. There's a good chance you will be extra lucky. But be careful of the urge to splurge new found cash in one place or all at once. You'll be buying new clothes and perhaps updating your look. Now is also a good time to organize your home or office and get rid of things you don't need. Didn't do much spring cleaning? Well, now's the perfect time to dig your heels in! Donate things you don't need to charity. Have a yard sale. But as mentioned before, be cautious with your spending because in August, you will need some extra cash when an unexpected bill pops up.

Cancer

July will be one of the best months of the entire year for you. Expect a fun filled birthday with many surprises. Love is all around you too this month. Many people are drawn to you. Cancers will look more gorgeous than ever, thanks to Venus in their sign early on. Then it will move into the sign of Leo and bring financial blessings by mid July. Sometime this month, you may run into an old friend that you have been thinking a lot about lately. Be sure to make plans with them to reconnect and catch up on things. You're one of the most sentimental signs of all of the zodiac. You love reminiscing and July's cosmic aspects help you to do just that. Avoid large purchases on July 16 and 17 as you could find expensive buys may not be worth their weight in gold. You shine on the career front July 25-27.

Leo

The month ahead starts off a little slow with the sun in your solar 12th house. You'll feel like hanging out around the house and meditating! But as we move closer to the 23, you're feeling much more like your jovial old self and ready to party. Venus in your sign, helps give you an extra boost of confidence to chase after your wildest dreams. It also helps you look extra gorgeous! You'll find yourself caught up in a whirlwind of activities after the 20th, so enjoy the slower pace of early July. It's time for you to relax and unwind. Book a day at the spa or indulge in lazy afternoons with a good book or movie. Around the 27 expect some new opportunities you've been waiting for to drop in your lap.

Virgo

The month ahead finds Virgo needing some "alone" time. Perhaps you'll be feeling more creative than usual and want to begin a project. Whether you're starting to write the first chapter of a book or tackling a home remodel, you're able to get things accomplished in record time. This month is good for you to start on a new job project that will blossom by year's end. Finances could be a little concern as money is coming in and going right back out. But what's new?Remember to save a little extra cash even though you may have the urge to spend a lot. Put some in your rainy day fund. July also brings with it, a chance for a fun family reunion. Make a point to go and visit with some of the long distant relatives that you haven't seen in ages.

Libra

Love is in the air this month for Libra. Expect to meet someone new if you are single. If you are already attached, July offers you many opportunities to make romantic memories. Later in the month, you could be feeling a bit insecure and over analyzing just about everything, especially your most intimate relationships. But really, there is nothing to worry about. Just relax and enjoy all the good things the universe has provided for you. Understand that you are truly loved and have many loyal and supportive friends. Real estate matters are highly favored around the 18th. With home sales sagging around the country, those born under the sign of Libra have the least to worry about. They are the luckiest of all the zodiac signs when it comes to buying or selling property this summer.

Scorpio

Expect to be very introspective this month. A lot is going on inside your head these days as you have to sort through what's really important in your life and what you may need to let go of. These issues may be, but not limited to relationships, job responsibilities and contracts made with others. It may be helpful to take an extended vacation and go somewhere to clear your mind for a while. Sometimes, changing scenery helps you become more creative with problem solving. New career discussions arise too so be prepared to act quickly when a once in a lifetime opportunity drops in your lap.

Sagittarius

This month, spread your wings and fly! You're quite the social butterfly. You will be making plans with old friends and new alike. Your social circle will expand and you may be invited to a big event around the full moon. Make a point to RSVP, ASAP as this soiree may provide you with valuable contacts for the future, especially strong business alliances. Money will be a little tight around the week of the 6th but as we move closer to the 22nd, your chances for increasing income expand. You should also be updating your resume or giving some thought to a career goal. Now is the perfect time to revise a game plan for upcoming successes.

Capricorn

July could be a little crazy for you. With many planets opposing your sun sign, Cappys may feel overwhelmed with responsibilities at home or work. Take a few minutes each night to relax and meditate. All your hard work will pay off soon and new opportunities are coming your way. Also, at the end of the month expect great changes in your usual routine. Have no worries because these changes are for the better. The first three weeks of July offers a chance for romance. This is perhaps one of the best months of the entire year for love. Around the new moon on the 2nd, you could meet someone or take a relationship to the next level. If already attached, you could make a decision that will affect the relationship on a very deep level.

Aquarius

Early this month, you'll be feeling pretty good about the road that lies before you. There's opportunities and new relationships at your doorstep. You have been working very hard for quite some time and now you could receive a huge pay off. However, you should learn to take better care of your physical self. Exercising is becoming more of a necessity to keep your health strong. Start a daily walk with a friend or sign up for a membership to a local gym. This month you can feel your best physically if you do. When the sun moves into your opposite sign of Leo around the 23rd, new relationships can be formed that will benefit you in many areas of life. Within a week after this, a major aspect takes place that we will discuss in our August horoscopes, that could change your life forever!

Pisces

Little do you know but someone from your past has been thinking about you constantly. They may try to get in touch. Could it be that an ex lover still carries a torch for you? Or perhaps a former employer wants to offer you a job. Make sure you check all phone messages and emails in a timely fashion. You'd hate to miss anything that comes your way these days.Some Fish may receive an unexpected visit or phone call from an old love. You may have mixed feelings but once approached, you will understand that you have the chance for closure. On the other hand, if you wanted to re ignite a flame, you certainly could do that too.

Nice Letters We Get

Maria,

I already had one piece of moldavite but I bought another from your fair when I was there with a Herkimer diamond. My nerves were shot but as soon as I put on the first piece they immediately calmed down !!!! That was totally a surprise to me !!!!! I still get upset about things but no where as bad as I was. Now , if only everything else would straighten out I would be glad !!! Thanks a lot for the info on Moldavite.

Mary Myers

On my last order of moldavite, paypal didn't inform you for 2 and a half weeks, so I am sending you a heads up that I have ordered another necklace and raw piece for Sharon and Janene. Just in case you are running low on inventory.

I have been wearing my necklace every day. As you know, for many months, I have been pretty bummed out what with all the medical challenges, etc. You asked for feedback and I just want you to know that yesterday morning, I woke up happy, just like my old self, and I have stayed happy--and optimistic. We'll see what else happens. Hugs and thanks.

W*O*W....talk about having aha moments. I received my necklace and was blown away at how absolutely beautiful it was. My husband had been in the hospital for a couple of weeks and when I put this necklace on I did not feel anything but I can tell you this...when my husband finally expired....there was a calmness that came....and I was everyone else's rock.....the funeral went exactly as I wanted it especially since he is Jewish and the rest of his family was not it was not a challege at all combining the two...we could not have asked for a more perfect weather day for the gathering....the blessings just keep pouring in...my garage in need of repair caved in the day AFTER the funeral...the money has been flowing and no matter how much I spend it never seems to decrease....I have gotten so much positive energy from friends as well as strangers....so I don't know what this is but I do know that it works....thank you so much for bringing this beautiful stone to our attention.
