December 18-24 2023 The Winter Solstice arrives in the Northern Hemisphere, marking the longest night of the year. To be truly in tune with the flow of the first day of winter we need to stand back and take notice. The energy is withdrawn now, the real action is internal. This day has been celebrated by cultures all over the world, festivals and ceremonies honoring the darkness and calling the light. Astrologers look at the charts of the Solstice to get a feel for what is in store for the upcoming season. Winter is a time withdrawal. The light is diminished and it seems as though everything stops growing. But those seeds are there beneath the surface gathering the energy to burst forth with the increased light of spring. Use this time to be receptive to promptings from within about what to create for your greater good. Now, as the Sun enters Capricorn, we have an opportunity to get a hold of what is of true and lasting value to us. As the Sun travels through Capricorn we can get in touch with our deep, reflective, enterprising selves. All the celebrating and obligation that fill this time of year run directly counter to our bodies innate wisdom. We need to be focused within, searching our hearts. Jim Ewing, author and Southern Cherokee Tribe Elder writes about the Winter Solstice: "Among the Iroquois, it was a time of dreaming. Rather than staying up all night to celebrate the dawn, the People of the Longhouse turned in early, to sleep, to dream. As Mother Night reigned supreme, in dreaming they walked between the worlds of light and darkness, gathering great meaning from what The Great Mystery illuminated for them. At first light, the entire tribe would gather and each tribal member -- men, women, to the smallest child -- would stand and relate what visions they saw on this special night. The dreams would be discussed at length by the entire tribe for each vision's meaning -- for the individual, about the world, for the tribe. Sigmund Freud wasn't the first to explore or discover the importance of nightly dreaming any more than Columbus "discovered" the New World. For, the Iroquois practiced this annual event for 1,000 years before the first European set foot on these shores. French Jesuit missionaries in the 1600s marveled at the Iroquois' annual event, writing about them in letters and journals, especially the aspect of the tribe "acting out" various dreams." Though we may not have a tribe to share our sleep time visions with, we could make an attempt to watch our dreams tonight. Share what you remember with a loved one, or your journal. Our intention to be receptive and contemplative will bring great insight and plant the seeds of new direction. Mercury moves back into Sagittarius on Saturday. During the retrograde take time to Reflect. In fact, any 'Re' you can think of would be beneficial in the next few weeks: Redo, re-decorate, re-vise, re-member, re-create, re-alize, replace, remove -you get the point. This Sagittarius energy is seeking the truth to bring along on its quest for freedom and joy.

Jim Ewing has been an avid climber most of his life. He would injure his foot during a climbing trip in the Cayman Islands. After realizing amputation might be the best route to regain some mobility, he would connect with Hugh Herr, a biophysist at MIT and would undergo a radical new amputation, now known as the Ewing amputation. All of this is the subject of Augmented, a feature documentary that premiered this past month on Nova PBS. Jim is back to climbing so we chat with him about this journey and the documentary.

Jim Ewing of Ewing/Cona Wealth Management in Marlton, N.J., says that the long current market rally appears to be overbought, which isn't necessarily a reason to expect a protracted downturn, but it should inspire investors to be more cautious. To that end, Ewing notes that many investor portfolios have grown fabulously over the last few years, gaining in size but moving away from their underlying financial plan. He suggests that investors wanting to respond to current market conditions look at rebalancing to see if it is both necessary and more likely to give them a comfortable portfolio for riding out the market's upcoming volatility.
Michael Power, strategist at Investec Asset Management, an international money manager, says that something doesn't look right with the American stock market back at record high levels and seemingly 'walking on air' despite the recent inversion of the yield curve and economic numbers that show slowing and increasing weakness. The U.S. market remains the world's strongest, Power said, but that difference is less pronounced, and valuations in other countries may make it so that international investments -- especially in emerging markets -- are more attractive than U.S. stocks and bonds going forward. Also on the show, Jim Ewing of HighTower Advisors discusses how current market conditions make this a particularly good time to rebalance a portfolio, Sarah Foster of Bankrate.com discusses Valentine's Day spending, and Louis Navellier of the Navellier Funds talks about growth stocks in the Market Call.
Lauren Pearson of HT Somerset and Jim Ewing of Ewing/Cona Wealth Management acknowledge that financial-advisory technology is changing rapidly, and that while technologies can give clients more and better control of their money, too much tech can create paralysis-by-analysis and other problems. In this rebroadcast of a podcast from January, the two veteran advisers discuss how they integrate fin-tech with their clients.

Alan Levenson, chief U.S. economist at T. Rowe Price & Associates, said in the Big Interview that while investors should not expect the big returns they have seen through much of the bull-market run, they also should not expect a recession. He noted that the poor end to 2018 was a downturn that occurred despite continued economic growth and said he does not expect market declines to be the dominant story for the year ahead. Also on the show, Greg McBride gives his take on the Fed meeting, Lauren Pearson and Jim Ewing of HighTower Advisors discuss better planning through technology, Mike Brown of LendEDU discusses complaints consumers have over cryptocurrencies and Garvin Jabusch of Green Alpha Advisors has the Market Call.

Part 2 of a 2 part story. Jim and Mo tell their story of their attempt at the first unassisted adaptive climb of the Lotus Flower Tower in Canada’s Cirque of the Unclimbables.
Jim and Mo have a few things in common; they are both from Maine, climb hard, and are missing a limb. Strangers who met last December, the duo have partnered up to attempt the first unassisted adaptive climb of the Lotus Flower Tower in Canada’s Cirque of the Unclimbables. From Jim’s 60+ foot fall that resulted in the amputation of his foot, to Mo’s life of growing up without her left hand, their unique stories are the reason they met and decided to attempt this climb together. Check out their story and stay tuned for the Expedition Episode releasing in late September.
Some sci-fi and a twisty little heist drama is on the menu for this episode of BEHIND THE LENS thanks to w/d JULIAN FORT, producer/writer/actor MORGAN LARIAH, and producer/actor EDOARDO BALLERINI. First up is an excerpt of our exclusive interview with EDOARDO BALLERINI as he talks about getting into character, er, make that seven characters, for 7 SPLINTERS IN TIME. One of the most versatile actors of our time, Edoardo is typically a supporting player, but with 7 SPLINTERS IN TIME, he is front and center, showcasing the true depth and range of his talents. And then take a listen to our exclusive pre-recorded interview with actor/writer/producer MORGAN LARIAH as she talks about her new film the sci-fi thriller, 5th PASSENGER. A filmmaking rarity today to find a woman creating a science fiction film, and then starring in and producing it, but that's exactly what Morgan does with 5th PASSENGER. Listen as she talks about casting (how about someone from every iteration of "Star Trek" but for the original series?), as well as tackling the lead role herself – a first for her, and the hurdles of writing a script and producing a film. Freshman filmmakers should find what Morgan has to say beneficial on many fronts. At the midpoint of the show writer/director JULIAN FORT joins us live talking about his freshman feature, THE MIDNIGHTERS. A tight little heist film with some nice twists and turns, not only is THE MIDNIGHTERS a directorial jumping off point for Julian, but 40+ year character actor LEON RUSSOM finally gets the chance to strut his stuff with a very controlled, methodical, and richly compelling performance. Listen as Julian goes in-depth talking about the film's cinematography and his DP Paul McIlvaine, plus the importance of Jim Ewing's editing at not only building a slow burn, but creating a pacing that mirrors that of the film's lead character. http://behindthelensonline.net http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Aired Wednesday, 19 August 2015, 4:00 PM ETWhat does it take to be a man? Women increasingly have more education and a higher earning capacity than men. They no longer wait for Prince Charming but actively initiate relationships. They are firefighters, warriors, welders and CEOs. The role of men on the other hand is becoming muddled and confused. Many guys just don’t know “how to be.” In his book, Redefining Manhood, Jim Ewing is offering men (and women) a new way of thinking about manhood in a positive way, one that is based on age-old indigenous practices. He aims to help individuals define themselves based on spiritual and commonsense principles that have guided humankind in societies around the globe for thousands of years. Join us and listen to Jim show us a new way to be a “guy” that works for both men and women.About Guest Jim Pathfinder EwingJim Pathfinder Ewing is an award-winning journalist, workshop leader, inspirational speaker and author in the fields of mind-body medicine, organic farming and eco-spirituality.
