Input: Park Service [Cons] (1)Since the National parks are designated under US Code, if the state refuses to quickly add state code to re-designate the national park territories as a state park territory, then the National parks can be looted and destroyed since the land was only protected by the Federal Government. [Pros]

Output: (1)All National parks within the respected state would have to be transferred to the State Government for protection of the natural resources and preserve the site for future generations. In other words all national parks would then have to be taken on by the state and become state protected grounds.(2)The National Park Service and Department of the Interior would not exist anymore within the secession states but instead the state park service or whatever legal name it is designated as will be in charge of all parks designated and declared by law to be protected and under that particular agency.


Input: Government Supremacy and Authority [Cons] (1)The very Federal Supremacy clause that hurts the states and it’s people, can also be a good thing in regards to state corruption and dealing with a out of control state leadership. Under a secession the Federal Government cannot legally and will not lift a finger against any issues within the state. [Pros]

Output: (1)The Supreme Court and Federal Supremacy clause will have no merit. All authority will come from the state.(2)The State will have the authority and right to produce it’s own currency whether fiat or backed by backed by precious metal. As of before the Congress only had the authority to produce the currency by the Department of Treasury. Although the Congress has sold out the treasury to the US Private Federal Reserve complex.


Input: Criminal/Civil/Police [Cons] (1)A Criminal that violated a law within the state can simply flee into another state before the secession begins and be protected by the state against the police from the other state since the police would have no jurisdictional authority under the more recent state of residence with the exception of extradition from one country state to another using a treaty system. [Pros]

Output: (1)All criminal and civil cases will be dealt with by the state, for only state laws.(2)If somebody was set-up as a criminal within another state they can be exiled by fleeing to the neighboring state and be protected from the corrupt law enforcement and be safe from political persecution.


Input: Political Corruption [Cons] (1)State Corruption will still exist and state politicians live more closer to people within each respected county therefore if the politician knows a district attorney within the county they can hunt down and kill/destroy political enemies exposing corruption within the state. The only thing that politician needs is an excuse or set up the person for a crime then slam them into prison. Usually when exposing a corrupt US Senator or Congressperson, they just ignore you but with a state politician, they know where you personally live locally and close to where they live. [Pros]

Output: (1)Political corruption within the Federal Government will cease to exist.(2)Corrupt Federal Court rulings would cease to exist and can be reset to the very beginning so if a new union forms between states, that union won’t enforce court rulings before the secession. (3)All Federal laws that are corrupt and in violation of the Constitution and harm the peoples liberties will also cease to exist.


Input: Military/Defense Forces [Cons] (1)All foot and vehicle traffic would have to be subjected to inspection, seizure, or even state customs inspection when moving between states. Traveling between states will become rapidly difficult within encountering military and state boarder guards.(2)Traveling from one state to another may require a traveling VISA and Passport. [Pros]

Output: (1)All US Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, and any other military force bases would no longer belong to the Federal Government but to the state and it’s governor will become the Commander in Chief unless the State Constitution has no provision for this radical change without the state legislatures rapid and fast changes to the State Constitution.(2)The state will have to forge a State Defense Force or State National Guard, State Army or Militia, State Air Force, State Coast Guard, State Navy, and other needed state military forces. (3)The State can decide whether to create a intelligence agency to counter the CIA, NSA, and Defense Intelligence Agency the intelligence arm of the US Military.

Output: Women should have equal participation in the quorums of the Church because-


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] Women are equal to men intellectually. In fact, if we take the number of graduates from our schools and colleges, we must admit that they are farther advanced mentally.

Output: Women are equal to men spiritually. In fact, if we take the number of women in the pews and records of the Church, we must admit that they are farther advanced spiritually.


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] TWomen should not be subject to taxation without representation any more than men. “Consent of the governed” means women as well as men; for they are subject to government as well as men.

Output: Women should not be subject to policies without representation any more than men. “By common consent” means women as well as men; for they abide Church policies as well as men.


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] Women are recognized in the family as a large part of the governing force. The state is only a large family composed of both sexes. Why should she not be considered in the government of the larger family?

Output: Women are recognized in the family as a large part of the guiding force. The church is only a large family composed of both sexes. Why should she not be considered in the leadership of the larger family?


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] Women have been given suffrage in numerous countries and in several states in this Union, and partial suffrage in nearly all civilized countries. We have no knowledge of such action having proved to be a failure or of such laws being repealed, which of course, would be done were the experiment not a success.

Output: Women have been ordained in numerous churches and sects in the world. We have no knowledge of such action having proved to be a failure or of such policies being repealed, which of course, would be done were the experiment not a success.


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] Women are better morally, as evidence by the criminals in the penitentiaries. For example: in the penitentiaries in California we have about three thousand men and about thirty women, and the cases tried before the police courts probably average about the same. We must, therefore, admit that women would be a great factor in promoting honesty, equity and morality if given the ballot.

Output: Women are better morally, as evidence by the criminals in the penitentiaries. For example: in California, women make up only 6% of the prison population. We must, therefore, admit that women would be a great factor in promoting honesty, equity, and morality if given leadership responsibilities.


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] It is argued that all women do not wish to vote. The same argument applied to men: for it has become common practice on election days to send conveyances for a large percent of the male voters, and many who go voluntarily do so from a sense of duty. Women, being more faithful to duty, will exercise their right of franchise and do it cheerfully; besides, their presence on such occasions will make the whole occasion more enjoyable as well as a guaranty that everything will be carried on respectably.

Output: It is argued that all women do not wish to have the priesthood. The same argument applied to men: for it has become common practice for it to be hard to find home teachers willing to visit families and be available for prieshood blessings, and many who go volunarily do so from a sense of duty. Women, being more faithful to duty, will exercise their right of franchise and do it cheerfully; besides, their presense on such occasions as baptisms and baby’s blessings, will make the whole occasion more enjoyable as well as a guaranty that everything will be carried on respectably.


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] Women who are in touch with public affairs are none the less womanly, but, on the contrary, they are better and more companionable wives, more interesting mothers, because they have a common interest with their sons.

Output: Women who are in touch with church affairs are none the less womanly, but, on the contrary, they are better and more companionable wives, more interesting mothers, because they have a common interest with their sons.


Input: [Argument For Women’s Suffrage] The time was thought that to allow a girl a high school education would ruin her morals, destroy her religion, impair her health, make her more masculine, and take away her desire to be a good wife and mother. Such theories are long since exploded, and, as we have progressed in these matters, let us progress in reference to suffrage; let us show the saloon element, the gambling element, the selfish element (for these are the opponents of women’s suffrage) that this great state of California is really a progressive state in every way.

Output: The time was thought that to allow a girl suffrage would ruin her morals, destroy her religion, impare her health, maker her more masculine, and take away her desire to be a good wife and mother.

Input: [Story Title] "I received a great grace from God" [Name] Marco Boni [Locale] Rome, Italy [Former Religion] Catholic (Member) [Convert Story Highlight]

Output: Former Religion: In the light of this truth, I asked where the Catholic Church draws the origin of the teaching regarding the so-called Trinity. He read two passages from the book "Discourses on the Apostles Creed" written by a Catholic priest in which it says that in the Council of Nicaea, in 325 A.D., the Catholic Church defined that it was an article of faith that Jesus Christ is God; and in the Council of Constantinople, in 381 A.D., that the Holy Spirit is God. There are no biblical bases of the teaching of the so-called Trinity. This fact made me deeply upset, so much that I asked a priest whom I recognized then for an explanation. But rather than answering me in a calm manner, he was outraged and sent me away. Iglesia ni Cristo: Any question I asked him he answered by reading verses in the Bible, never in his own words and neither did he pronounce the prophetic sentence of the Catholic priests that it is a "mystery of the faith"! One of the doctrines that touched me deeply is the truth regarding God and Jesus Christ who, according to some religions are one, but in the Bible, they are two and are entirely different. . . . . What determined my choice to become a member of the Church of Christ was when I asked Brother Santos to show me where in the Bible we can read that Jesus Christ is not God. He took by hand the Bible and read to me different verses, among which are: John 17:3, John 20:17, and I Timothy 2:5. These verses left me surprised, especially John 20:17 wherein Jesus Christ makes clear that He is not God. Convert Story-15 Click here to read full story

Input: [Story Title] "A totally new experience for me" [Name] Rory Johnstone [Locale] England, United Kingdom - Tokyo, Japan [Former Religion] No religious affiliation [Convert Story Highlight]

Output: Former situation: I had no prior religious affiliation. I neither had sets of religious beliefs nor made any attempt to avail myself of the teaching of the Holy Scriptures. I was born to a typical English family in England whose religion is called Church of England. Until now, I am still not sure what this means. But one thing I realized was that it is not the true faith. I have now lived and worked in Tokyo, Japan for one and a half years. Last year was a time in my life which proved very difficult. My father was diagnosed as having a terminal illness—. My wife and my son returned to the United Kingdom after a turbulent period which resulted in a divorce. On the other hand, my job required me to work almost twenty four hours a day. Because of these, I felt very low and dejected, often contemplating on my life and its severity. Over the past few years, I felt there was something missing in my life. I have never felt self-satisfaction. I don’t remember praying or consciously asking for help. Iglesia ni Cristo: One day, I unexpectedly met a Church of Christ member from Kowloon Locale in Hongkong. She invited me to attend the worship service the next evening. . . . During the worship service, I observed that there were no graven images. I thought I was in the wrong place. However, the solemnity of the worship service made me feel very humble—the segregation of the male and female worshippers, the uplifting hymns, the formality and respect of the offerings, the honest message delivered by the resident minister, and above all, the sincerity of the highly spiritual prayers. I felt very different. It was totally new and unexpected. Before returning to Tokyo, I attended one more worship service and was handed a pamphlet entitled, Introducing the Iglesia ni Cristo. I read the said pamphlet with a great deal of interest and referred to an old Bible. I checked the quoted references, all of which I found to be true. This was something that has always made me feel secure—the pureness of the Church and her sheer observance of the Holy Scriptures. . . . . . I found our Bible study very enlightening. The truth about the Catholic Church and her teachings was equally astonishing. I learned the true way of attaining salvation. I also continued with my Bible study, attending worship services twice a week until I was finally baptized in Ibaraki, Japan. I have always felt how refreshing it is to be able to find a true and a unique Church in today’s world of false prophets. I can now stand up with certainty that the Church I entered is the one and only true Church. I am now able to cope with life’s trials and tribulations. I can always find solace and peace in our loving Father. Convert Story-30 Click here to read full story

Input: [Story Title] "I thank God for calling me" [Name] Karl Metzinger [Locale] Vienna, Austria [Former Religion] Catholic [Convert Story Highlight]

Output: Former Religion: I WAS BAPTIZED into the Catholic Church in the same way as my parents, grandparents, and most of the people in Austria were baptized. During my school days, I attended the mass and other religious activities regularly. . . . I believed then, that I was worshipping the true God so I did not realize that I was following man-made teachings like worshipping images. . . . . At the age of 21, I stopped attending religious activities because of my ambition to get into sports. . . . My mind was no longer set on reaching that most important goal—being prepared for the second coming of Christ on Judgment Day. For many years, I wandered away from “salvation’s path” and lived without hope until one daysomethingsomethinghunexpected appeneddto my life.my life. Iglesia ni Cristo: In June 1991, I took a trip to the Philippines where I met Airen Borlagadan. I was so impressed by her kindness that I kept her address before I left the country. . . . After a few days, I wrote a letter to her. Coincidentally, I also received a letter from her. In her letters, she asked me about my religion and she also told me that she is a member of the Iglesia ni Cristo or Church of Christ. She emphasized that this is the true religion where God commanded people to enter. So If I wanted to learn more about her religion, she would be glad to invite me to go to her church with her and her family. At that time, it does not really matter to me, which church one belongs, as long as he leads a Christian way of life. But later on, I changed my mind and finally decided to inquire into the teachings of her church, the Iglesia ni Cristo, with her assistance. . . . . When I returned to the Philippines to visit Airen in March 1992, I attended my first worship service in her church and the solemnness of the occasion gave me a good feeling. I had never felt this before. One thing I noticed was the deep devotion of the worshippers. I was also impressed with the way the minister expounded the teachings written in the Bible. Moreover, the brotherhood and the unity among the members (as I learned later) made me interested to learn more about the Church of Christ. Convert Story-33 Click here to read full story

Input: [Story Title] "I am now part of the Lord’s Church" [Name] Marcel Voshol [Locale] Dordrecht, Netherlands [Former Religion] Protestant [Convert Story Highlight]

Output: Former Religion: Although I was born a Protestant, I never went to church. When I reached the age of 20, I started to wonder and think about what would happen to me when I die. It was then that I started to become interested in religion. There are so many different churches in the Netherlands but for some reasons I never attended any of their worship services. Iglesia ni Cristo: I agreed to go and what I saw really surprised me. There were so many people in one place listening to a man preaching about God. It was really a different experience seeing all those people. . . . Attending worship service soon became my next goal. Dressed up in my best clothes, we went to the place of worship—a huge worship building situated at the center of Cebu City. Inside the building of worship, I was surprised to see the men and women sitting separately. I was ushered to the next seat vacant and waited for the start of the worship service. During the worship service, something different happened to me. While I was listening to the lesson, I experienced a strange, indescribable feeling—as if I felt a gentle, invisible hand on my right shoulder. From that moment on, I knew in my heart that I had found the true religion, the Church of Christ. Convert Story-34 Click here to read full story

Input: [Story Title] "I gained more than what I lost" [Name] Marzia Bangrazi [Locale] Rome, Italy [Former Religion] Catholic [Convert Story Highlight]

Output: Former Religion: I was an active member of the Roman Catholic Church. At that time, I was already separated from my husband and was struggling hard in taking care of my two kids on my own. Iglesia ni Cristo: Sister Lory persuaded and convinced me to attend the instruction in biblical doctrines in their area, knowing that if I would join the Church and serve the true God, I would find solace for my sufferings. . . . I was so eager to learn the doctrines of the Bible and so I didn’t hesitate to ask everyone many questions. Since then, my close friends and even my relatives had started to change their attitude toward me. But in spite of the fact that they were against what I was doing, I continued attending doctrinal instruction and worship services. During the course of my joining the Church, I encountered hindrances and heavy persecutions; many of my relatives and friends disowned me because of my decision to join the Church. It was my faith in God and conviction to serve Him that made me strong enough to overcome these things. Convert Story-35 Click here to read full story

Input: [Story Title] "Now I feel God in my life" [Name] Gregor Stuckert [Locale] Erlenbach, Germany [Former Religion] Catholic [Convert Story Highlight]

Output: Former Religion: Since childhood, my mother would accompany my brother and sisters and me to attend the Catholic Mass on Sundays. . . . At the age of 12, I told my mother that I would no longer attend church services as I could not feel anything by doing so—I could not feel God. . . . She asked me to go on attending if only for her sake. I agreed but I attended only twice a year and this was during Christmas and Good Friday of the Holy Week. . . . At that young age I already had a lot of questions about so many things concerning my religion. I asked myself why I was baptized as a baby when I could not yet answer for myself. Another big question in my mind was on the doctrine of celibacy. I could not understand why the priests were not allowed to marry when they have all the right to do so. I asked myself why. Iglesia ni Cristo: My first attendance in the Iglesia ni Cristp worship service was at Frankfurt Locale sometime in February of 1989. Many things attracted my attention—how the deacons and deaconesses were formally dressed, the seating arrangement that separated the men from the women, and the solemn atmosphere. I sat down and observed for a while until I, like the others, closed my eyes and prayed. At that moment, I felt something that I have never felt before. It was an overwhelming feeling that I could not describe. . . . When the minister started to preach, some of the questions that have lingered in my mind since age 12 were answered one by one. After having attended the worship service, I felt I needed to know more about this Church. There was also this invisible force that seemed like a hand guiding me to attend again and again. For the first time in my life, I found what I was looking for—a peaceful relationship with God. Convert Story-37 Click here to read full story

[2] Interests A Leo/Capricorn union generally results in a mutually supportive relationship, although the Capricorn partner will be more conservative, hard-working and traditional in outlook.

[2] Interests Both partners here will be vain individuals and share in the love of extravagant clothing...but that is about as far as the sharing will go. [3] Positive Challenges When there is true affection between Leo and Pisces, each can fill the other's voids and luxuriate in a caring relationship that is mutually beneficial. Since Leo is a natural leader, he or she often becomes the guardian of the weaker Pisces in this pairing. [5] Conclusion This combination is probably equally as likely to meet with failure as it is with success. In short, it is something of a gamble. [4]

Output: Negative Challenges Both Signs relish romantic interludes...and relish them often. In order to keep Leo happy, Pisces must learn to control the inherent changeable moods and strive to keep such moods separate from the love life.

Input: Expanded use of Vernacular: "Since the use of the mother tongue, whether in the Mass, the administration of the sacraments, or other parts of the liturgy, frequently may be of great advantage to the people, the limits of its employment may be extended." (Sacrosanctum Concilium 36.2) [Things to think about]

Output: Vatican II did not outlaw Latin. The Sacrosanctum says: "... steps should be taken so that the faithful may also be able to say or to sing together in Latin those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass which pertain to them." (Sacrosanctum Concilium 36) "it is for the competent territorial ecclesiastical authority ... to decide whether, and to what extent, the vernacular language is to be used; ... confirmed, by the Apostolic See ...consult with bishops of neighboring regions which have the same language. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 36.3)

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: Adaptations to consider cultural customs: Anything in these peoples' way of life which is not indissolubly bound up with superstition and error she [the Church] studies with sympathy and, if possible, preserves intact. Sometimes in fact she admits such things into the liturgy itself, so long as they harmonize with its true and authentic spirit. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 37) [Things to think about]

Output: This doesn't mean bring a death metal rock band into Mass. However, reverent music, that raises the Spirit, which is in a style that is part of a "people's way of life" can certainly be considered. For instance, in some Churches modern praise and worship could be considered if there are many young families. In Africa, people have a natural sense of rhythm. Dampening that by forcing 16th century white European classical music on them is not the way to win their hearts for Jesus. Forcing them to stand up straight and never move to the music because white Europeans do it that way, is not what Jesus is about. The Church is growing fast in Africa. Note: Trying to force European culture on indigenous people was an absolute disaster in the early 1900s when the pre-Vatican Church set up residential schools for indigenous children in North America. In North America having too much movement (such as liturgical dance) during Mass would not be appropriate because it is not core to our culture. The Vatican is recommending Gregorian Chant be restored, and that music be Catholic.

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: Study and Experimentation before making adaptations: Under the ...ecclesiastical authority ... promote studies and necessary experiments whenever there is question of adaptations to be proposed to the Apostolic See. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 48) [Things to think about]

Output: The document promotes studies and experimentation before proposing regional adaptations to the Vatican. Keep the essence allow for renewal of the form. Anything that distracts from the celebration of the Eucharist should be discarded. "the [Bishop's] commission is to regulate pastoral-liturgical action throughout the territory" under approval from Rome.

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: Participation of the Laity: The Church, therefore, earnestly desires that Christ's faithful, when present at this mystery of faith, should not be there as strangers or silent spectators; on the contrary, through a good understanding of the rites and prayers they should take part in the sacred action conscious of what they are doing, with devotion and full collaboration. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 48) ...this sacred Synod strongly urges pastors of souls that, when instructing the faithful, they insistently teach them to take their part in the entire Mass, especially on Sundays and feasts of obligation. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 55) [Things to think about]

Output: The Rosary is great. Our family does it almost every day. But there was a tradition during the Extraordinary Form of the Mass to do it while the Priest was presiding, because the faithful didn't understand Latin, and they were not included as participants in the celebration. Having a lay person read the first or second Bible reading or leading prayers after the homily, demonstrates that reading the Bible and praying is not just for Catholic Priests and Protestants. Bible reading among faithful Catholics has increased since Vatican II. Having the priest face the audience is more controversial among Traditionalists. However, Vatican II never mentioned it. Personally we are more engaged an present when we can see everything. However, there is certainly a trade off.

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: Remove repetition, restore important sections: For this purpose the rites are to be simplified, due care being taken to preserve their substance; elements which, with the passage of time, came to be duplicated, or were added with but little advantage, are now to be discarded; other elements which have suffered injury through accidents of history are now to be restored to the vigor which they had in the days of the holy Fathers, as may seem useful or necessary. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 50) [Things to think about]

Output: Prayers for the faithful was restored, the blood of Christ now available to the laity. The priest used to make dozens of signs of the cross over the elements. These have been reduced.

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: More Bible: The treasures of the bible are to be opened up more lavishly ...a more representative portion of the holy scriptures will be read to the people .... (Sacrosanctum Concilium 51) [Things to think about]

Output: More Bible is good! We used to have only 5% of Old Testament Scripture and only on special occasions... now the Old Testament is a regular part of our readings.

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: Don't skip the homily: the homily, therefore, is to be highly esteemed as part of the liturgy itself; in fact, at those Masses which are celebrated with the assistance of the people on Sundays and feasts of obligation, it should not be omitted except for a serious reason. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 52) [Things to think about]

Output: This is where the priest can share his depth and knowledge and teaching

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: More Prayers: Especially on Sundays and feasts of obligation there is to be restored, after the Gospel and the homily, "the common prayer" or "the prayer of the faithful." By this prayer, in which the people are to take part, intercession will be made for holy Church, for the civil authorities, for those oppressed by various needs, for all mankind, and for the salvation of the entire world. (Sacrosanctum Concilium 53) [Things to think about]

Output: Intercession prayer after the Homily had fallen out of practice before Vatican II. Prayer is a good thing!

Ordinary Form of the Mass (Novus Ordo, New) compared to the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional, Tridentine)


Input: Re-introduce the Blood of Christ to the faithful:... the faithful, after the priest's communion, receive the Lord's body from the same sacrifice, is strongly commended. ...communion under both kinds... also to the laity, in cases to be determined by the Apostolic See ... (Sacrosanctum Concilium 55) [Things to think about]

Output: Vatican II says receiving Christ under both auspices to be a "more perfect for of participation'" (Sacrosanctum Concilium 55)

Output: Created On: 12/31/2010 22:38:43 Today, where souls can be fragmented by our fast-paced, high tech but low touch material world, Hadley Fitzgerald, astrologer and psychotherapist, has helped me balance my heart and soul for the past 18 years. She has facilitated this process with a deep regard for who I was during each of the stages of our work together. Never once did I feel I was just another client to her. What I find remarkable about Hadley is that she honors that one’s emotional and soul work is hard, that change is harder still, and that change is a process that cannot be measured by the calendar or clock. Through her reassurance I learned that change would happen with facing old patterns, diligence in establishing new ones, and a respect for divine time. Most important, Hadley taught me that compassion for oneself makes change easier. In that gentle, honest, yet dry-humored way of hers, she held a mirror to what I could not or would not see about myself or my situation. There were times when these moments made me cry with the release of sadness, or laugh with the irony of it all; and sometimes Hadley was silently laughing or crying right there with me knowing all the while what it took for me to get to that point in my work with her. I am certain that Hadley’s work has crossed all aspects of human nature and yet she does not bring judgment to her clients’ soul work, nor does she confuse her own work-in-progress with theirs. In her presence, one can feel the tremendous respect she has for her clients, and yet she maintains both personal and professional balance that stems from a heart-felt personal code. Perhaps that inner code is a reflection of a deep connection with the soul – hers and ours. I truly believe Hadley’s work is soul-directed and that she is God’s gift in my life.


Input: [Name] Melissa McElrath [Entry]

Output: Created On: 04/26/2010 14:39:22 I walked into Hadley’s office at a very young and formative age. It took about three key sentences from her and I knew she would change my life. I consider Hadley to be one of the most important and influential people on this planet and certainly in the top two of my world. Her integration of astrology and psychotherapy have shaped my life, her direct and sobering approach keeps me honest, her love for the individual and the collective continues to inspire me...I try to channel my "inner Hadley" everyday. There are truly not enough words to describe her impact. She is my guru.


Input: [Name] Verlaine Crawford [Entry]

Output: Created On: 10/12/2009 16:25:50 Of all the people that I have met, which number in the thousands, Hadley Fitzgerald is one of most brilliant, insightful, and by far the most well-read human being I know. She combines her knowledge of astrology, psychology, mythology and extensive experience in counseling to assist each individual she counsels to rise above their limited emotional dramas and move into a true, healthy relationship with themselves and others. Hadley has helped me through many "soul-wrenching" experiences over the years since we first met on a terrace in Bali during an Earth Day conference. Her wisdom and understanding have guided me through career changes, a divorce, family upsets, accidents and illnesses, years of co-dependency and general confusion into a life that is stable, peaceful, abundant and joyful, even during these uncertain times. Her yearly astrological readings of the energetic transitions that I would be facing in the near and distant future have given me a grounding and prepared me to move more easily though transitions that have been deep and life-changing. I highly recommend Hadley as a coach, confidant and counselor who will be the closest person you will find to a physical Guardian Angel living on this planet. She can help you, your family, friends and co-workers to live harmoniously in alignment with the Universal Flow.

Output: Created On: 10/05/2009 10:21:03 I wanted to share with you about the recent victorious resolution regarding my employee status at my company—and moving on with my life. I went back and read the notes I took at our session last September, and it was interesting that of the many, many dates you highlighted over the course of the session, one ten-day period stood out. So I was—and wasn’t—surprised that the business meeting ended up being postponed (3 weeks!) till that time. It turned out to be the right timing for me, as I went in last Thursday feeling quite empowered and mentally prepared because of what we’d discussed. Of course I also lined up with my higher self to be in sync with the universe—and it all went my way, which means I received reasonable compensation out of the situation, something fairly unheard of for this company. And of course, it was a moral victory, what I characterize as “Integrity wins over mean-spiritedness." The two-year stand off is over, and I won !!! I now move on free & clear, as well as having completely earned the benefits due me, etc. etc. Our session helped me so much. Thanks for being an important source of support in my preparation to “fight city hall.” I’m so happy to report this.

I have always come away with the validation, tools and information I need to access my own wisdom and strength. She helps to bring into full awareness what I know I need to do to make the best possible decisions for my life's journey.

Several friends and I are clients of Hadley’s and we can each attest to her being the “best of the best.” She is brilliantly uncanny at mapping the choices, emotional issues, and opportunities for expression, expansion and evolution of the soul on its journey through this life and/or in the cycles just ahead of you.

Output: Created On: 09/12/2009 10:10:08 I was referred to Hadley by a friend after the sudden death of my best friend. Hadley gently helped me through a difficult time with her expert and intuitive knowledge of astrology. For 10 years I have consulted with Hadley for strategic guidance in business decisions, changes in career, and personal matters. There isn't a better mentor and advisor to skillfully guide you to reach your full potential. I'm such a fan, and I’m so grateful to have her in my life.


Input: [Name] Karen Magarian [Entry]

Output: Created On: 09/01/2009 04:23:50 I feel an enormous sense of gratitude and appreciation for the depth of insight that Hadley Fitzgerald provides in her astrological consultations. While exploring natal and progressed charts, Hadley shares her appreciation for the art and root of language, of archetypes and knowledge of the psyche, in addition to her honed intuition. The integration of these skills help me to recognize the various layers and patterns at work in my life (including those which no longer serve me). Balancing wisdom, elegance and wonderful sense of humor, Hadley is a seasoned and trustworthy guide as I continue to navigate the challenges of “earth school” – which at times finds me kicking and screaming, but more often at peace and in harmony with the flow of life. I feel blessed to work with her.

Output: Created On: 08/23/2009 09:22:44 Working with Hadley is truly an experience that has changed and shaped my life. I started with a birthchart in 1994 and look forward every year to having my birthday reading with Hadley. I’ve discovered through the years that I find myself revisiting her words long after I’ve left our session. Hadley has a way of presenting her information in a clear, concise, narrative fashion rather than the mumbo jumbo jargon-packed way that many other astrologers out there do. Hadley is a gifted and skilled practitioner, and her work has been a tremendous support to me as I evolve on my path of discovery.
