Ksi Lisims LNG advances with environmental certificate The Indigenous-led Ksi Lisims LNG project has received its environmental assessment certificate.

The project is being advanced through a partnership of the Nisga’a Nation, Rockies LNG and Western LNG.

Ksi Lisims LNG is required to be netzero ready by 2030. Once connected to BC Hydro’s clean-electricity grid, Ksi Lisims will produce LNG with netzero emissions, giving B.C. a competitive advantage over other jurisdictions by supplying reliable, lower-carbon energy to its customers.

Be cautious about what you bring to an end or the way in which you go about winding something up, especially if you think it will open up more choices. The situation will have to be revisited mid April next year.

Other things would have changed by then.

It might be wiser to let things take their own course right now.

Something that started off as a small thing when it comes to helping out somebody else that seems to keep on growing would be best dealt with now, especially if it is turning into a habit or interfering with your regular routines. It has probably taught you to take more notice of what is important to you, rather than getting distracted..

New directions involving other people can be smooth running if things are done their way. While there might be a lot in common, their determination might clash with yours. If you have been attempting to come to an agreement, this might need to be left for now and revisited mid April as things will likely have changed by then.

Something is winding up on a personal level perhaps in ways you were not expecting that is generating thought of all sorts of possibilities in the long term. Someone can play a powerful role here. However it is to eventually settle will not become evident until January to April next year. Meanwhile just go with the flow.

You can have success in getting something out of the way that has been on your mind for a while but the energy just hasn’t been there.

Not that you will feel overly energised just yet. It is more a realisation that time is running out. You know you will feel a lot better once this is done, especially if others have a good view of it.

There can be a willingness to let something go that has been a personal priority but doesn’t fit well with someone else. It will be more important to establish underlying stability in situations involving others. This can be temporary as other opportunities to focus on your wishes will arise next year from January to April. Patience can pay off.

Something needs to be put into place once and for all so that you know what needs to be spent rather than other things coming up all the time. Whatever you do now can create changes that may not be fully implemented until next year, between January and April.

You need to be straightforward and practical with any discussions.

The New Moon this week occurs in your sign providing you with the opportunity to generate changed directions on a personal level. Anything that has not been heading in the direction you had hoped might be better let go right now. Becoming more practical can appeal to you, especially when it comes to stability with finances.

There can be new directions building up in the background that will provide the opportunity to put a stable foundation in place. This is likely tied into the decisions of somebody else and something may need to wind up so they can take the next step.

There could be more than one stage of development attached to this as well.

Changes in somebody else’s life may make you realise things are moving on and it will not be the same for you. This is encouraging you to think about what is important to you. It can actually be freeing you up to do so. This is a first stage.

New people can come into your life, especially from January to April next year.

It might be time to develop a new attitude when it comes to commitments or obligations in your life, especially if they affect your finances. If you have accepted things without thinking, you could recognise this has to stop. This can only happen when you take the time to analyse what you can realistically manage and follow through.

New possibilities in the long term can begin to feel more probable or realistic. This could leave behind a level of personal doubt or insecurity.

This can be tied to you becoming more aware of what has been important for a long time but needs to be modified in some way for the future. The second stage can occur January to April next year.
