Jessica Vetter, a 21 year-old woman was killed by Michael Jacoby, a 24-year old drunk driver in Florida a year ago, and when Jeffrey Vetter, the grieving father of the woman saw the drunk driver at his trial in a Baltimore, Maryland court he had great compassion for the young man. “He looked like any typical, average young man-he was not a monster”. The woman’s father had an epiphany of compassion and forgiveness. Instead of sending the culprit to prison for the maximum time allowed by law, Vetter asked the judge to release Jacoby after he had served only one month so he could join Jeffrey Vetter to talk to young people in high schools about how drinking and driving kills-and grips the one who is drunk and driving to a lifetime of self-loathing and endless remorse. Jeffrey Vetter had read about a father in Florida who had done the same thing. CNN produced a three-minute segment which you can watch by clicking on the video:

What is so miraculous about the dead girl’s father’s change of heart was that he had to comfort the villain’s parents who found themselves unable to forgive their own son.
People are always asking me what the end of the Mayan Calendar is all about and what is the significance of having a skilled and intuitive astrologist counsel you about where the planets were when you were born and I always answer: Watch this video and you will see the waxing effects of the shift in consciousness by 2012-loathing to forgiving and loving someone as this father did the man who killed his daughter. The Mayan Calendar, like your birth chart, is born within you and each of us responds positively or negatively when each is activated by the movement of the planets. There is a timing devise in the universe and the hands of the clock are planetary configurations that give us the chance to serve the light side or the dark side of ourselves.
He is AUTHOR OF Clearing for the Millennium, �Signs and Wonders-Understanding the language of God and You're Not Who You Think You Are-A Breakthrough Guide to Discover your Authentic Self will be published by Atria Books, a division of Simon & Schuster in December of this year.
A member of the National Association of Transpersonal Psychology and the American Federation of Astrologers, Gaulden founded the Sedona Intensive, a personal growth and empowerment program, to help clients retrieve their authentic selves and tap into their inner power.
Gaulden coined the term astroanalysis-a combination of Jungian psychology and astrology-to describe how he helps free clients from compulsions, addictions, and unresolved issues, which keep them from living a life of peace and joy.
Albert saw things others didn't and heard what they couldn't from the age of two. When he was five he asked his mother why she seemed more like his dad and his dad more like the mother. As a pre-schooler he was tuned into the rich world of intuition and past lives even though he had no one to shepherd him through these recollections and recalls. At Birmingham-Southern he click connected with the unique psychological work and world of Swiss psychoanalyst, Dr. Carl Jung and his take on the shadow self. Gaulden believes that all-seeing and all-knowing is born within a child and it is the false and mundane world that erases his memory of what is really true. The integration of the divided self, putting one back together through a conscious fusion with his or her shadow is the underpinning of his work in the Sedona Intensive.
Albert studied with renowned astrology Byrd Knapp, Darrell Harris and Katharine de Jersey, as well as took Awareness Classes with Lee Jones at the Spiritualist Church in Los Angeles in the 70's, and attended the Corrado Academy of Perception in 1978 which led to his meeting actor John Travolta using the tools of manifestation learned at the Academy, and selling John El Adobe de Tajiguas, a 35-acre estate that abutted Ronald Reagan's ranch near Gaviota Beach in Southern California.
Gaulden worked in 1986 with international-best selling author of The Celestine Prophecy, James Redfield in Albert's innovative and one-of-a-kind personal empowerment program, the Sedona Intensive, which he founded in 1982. Albert was hired to use his gifts as an astro-intuitive to help cast Redfield's movie of The Celestine Prophecy.
Gaulden travels the world to teach and speak and finds Egypt particularly one of the most intriguing countries in the world. In December he will be returning with a tour group of clients and friends to the Land of the Nile and Pharaohs and the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the Sphinx and other ancient digs and monuments in Upper and Lower Egypt.
His clients include sports figures, actors, royalty, Wall Street executives, men and women and young people from all walks of life who are eager to face those defects of character that keep them from being who they really are. He rigorously maintains the anonymity of his clients.
Additionally, Gaulden is a motivational speaker on such popular themes as "Mr. Right is Usually Mr. Wrong-Falling in Love With Make-Believe", "Take Your Power Back", "The Power of a Great Idea", the Death of Terror and the Rebirth of Bliss, �"Why Relationships Don't Work but How They Can" and many other provocative topics.
