Astrological Answers by Albert Clayton Gaulden

I am so sick of negative news that I could spit. There was a story today on CNN Money News that said winter fuel bills are going to skyrocket. We are in the dog days of summer and some smarty pants with a computer and a SEND button is loading the anxiety-ridden American public down with more Apocalyptic “the sky is falling” Zeitgeist. What I say to everyone is that we are in a time of financial and spiritual reconstruction.

How many more times do I have to alert the Great Unwashed that Pluto is about to reenter Capricorn until 2023—that’s a long time to clean up your room and see what you did to screw up your financials and make amends. If you look back at history we have gone through so many cycles—thank God the worst were without latter-day technology to spew the vitriol minute by minute—of rebuilding and making dramatic decisions to keep us from going over the cliff that I am going to declare this a “we” decade: “We” can take the challenge to make financial correction in our own accounts. “We” can be more responsible with resources and share them. “We” can see what is right in the world—flowers that grow, prayers that heal and love that is infectious.

I am going to call a referendum on bad news. I am not going to listen to who’s winning in Iraq or in the American Baseball League. I am not going to give a hoot how much money Angelina Jolie makes or how many babies she bears and adopts. The only concern I am going to have is if the volume of the still small voice of intuition can drown out the static interference of the malcontents and the bullies who want to profit from our stupidity—house hunters gobbling up the homes that bankruptcy took. If you agree with me, honk your horns when you spot me in Larchmont.

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.
