As for the Lachesis-Makemake Cycle, the Waning Trine (240 Degrees) indicates Dumb-Luck Blessings, but it’s past the Fruiting (222½ Degrees; see http://www.jbuss.com/jbl4/bluemoon204.htm) of the Cycle. So the Waning Trine represents the utilization of the Fruits of the Cycle, and possibly their Destructive Exploitation. In general the Trine is vulnerable to Arrogance, as the Ego is prone to Identifying with the Boon as a source of Pride, rather than Feeling and Expressing Gratitude for the Gift from Source that it truly is. Eventually most people Learn that Everyone has Special Gifts, and so may Learn that Gratitude is more appropriate.
So the Waning Trine encountered Unconsciously would symbolize use of Resources as if they were Unlimited and given to Humanity for “Dominion” with no concern about wastefulness, like the Antichrist’s current approach to the Environment – his Mentor failed to mention to him how the same approach despoiled the Soviet Union. The Waning Trine used Consciously would then mean the Realization that the Fruit of a Cycle is not Unlimited in Quantity or Timing, which would lead Consciousness to Save Seed and Take Notes so as to Learn from the Experience rather than just Exploiting it.
The current Lachesis-Makemake Cycle began in early January 2015 at 2 Libra, which remarkably symbolizes “Transmutation of the fruits of past experience into the seed-realization of the forever-creative spirit.” This Sabian Symbol was made to fit a Waning Trine.
Now, we’re talking about Manifestation. So the reading tells us to take everything we know about Manifestation, roll it up into a ball, bury it, Change the Subject, and then see what happens. We want to Allow what we’ve Learned about Manifestation in the last several years to Migrate into our Intuitive self, where we don’t have to Consciously Direct it, we can just Enjoy its Fruits. We’re usually harping away about how great Consciousness is, and we still will. But our Purpose is to take our Unconscious Self-Sabotaging Habits out of hiding, Convert them into Self-Loving Habits, then put those back Behind the Curtain.
A Cycle is ripped away from us at the Waxing Square, which in this case occurs at the Summer Solstice, in about three months. We needn’t Give Away anything we’re Creating, unless it’s Surplus, but if we start now to Clear our Minds about Manifestation Technology, we may be able to avoid Being or Feeling “Screwed” by the Square. The new Cycle begins in mid-October of next year.
I don’t usually like to talk about the Next Cycle while the Current Cycle is moving into and through the Void, because if we start thinking about what’s next, we’ll invariably Frame our Approach to the New Cycle through the Lens of the Old Cycle, and replace the Potential Surprise, Delight, Quantum Breakthroughs of the New Cycle, with Expectations hewn from the Old Wood. But since we’re dealing with Survival here (ie, the Ixion-Pholus-Quaoar Stations), I can say that the Next Lachesis-Makemake Cycle is about Sustenance and Self-Reliance. Let it be about Sustenance and Self-Reliance in Surprising ways.
Now, a reader, friend, and colleague has been recommending Phil Sedgwick’s work on what he calls the “Super Galactic Center” (which for some reason he abbreviates “ZS”), a multi-Galactic Black Whole which apparently dwarfs our own Galactic Center, and which sits at – you guessed it – 2 Libra. His article on the subject seems better at fostering Self-Judgment than Self-Love, but he focuses on Compulsive Neediness, using a sort of insulting Psych-Hospital-ER Humor. I’m not sure that insults behoove anyone.
Now, we know that Nothing Changes Until We Accept Ourself Exactly As We Are, and that It’s Empathy that Heals, so maybe in his own way he’s attempting to do a sort of wry Poor-Sweetheart with our Self-Judgments about the Compulsions which our 2 Libra planets saddle us with. But frankly, I can lead you to the same conclusions much more Gently and Lovingly by using my tired old speech about how T-Squares are not really a Constantly Frustrating Series of Failures but rather a Graduate Course where there are no Answers only Better Questions.
If you have planets at 2 Libra that are not in a T-Square or Square, I’d be curious about whether his article, at http://www.philipsedgwick.com/Galactic/ZS.htm, sounds relevant and useful to you.
But if 2 Libra does in its own right carry a quality of Compulsive Neediness, then what better to be Compulsively Needy about than “Transmutation of the fruits of past experience into the seed-realization of the forever-creative spirit.” In the sense that Libra is about Meeting Other, and Early Libra about the Shock of that, it’s not Surprising that a Fear-based Compulsive Need for Approval and Anxiety about it would arise.
That Anxiety could easily be expressed as “Transmutation of the fruits of past experience into the seed-realization of the forever-creative spirit,” or as Goethe put it, “Wer Immer Strebend sich bemüht…” Imagine what it will be like when the Other Ships start Landing; I Expect we’ll have a pretty Deep Need to Know that we’re Safe in that context.
Okay, we’re technically past Pluto-South Node, though if you’re still Refusing or Unable to Embrace any particular Emotions, it may drag on for you. No Blame – we have all the Time in the World, and for many people, specific Emotions, or the Memories that Invoke them, can literally Feel worse than Death. If you’re in that situation, EFT may help Liberate you (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4hhMm8qsCs).
We’re now already deep into the Survival-Issue Stations (Strong Energies) that follow it. They’re three separate Stations, but because they coincide in Time and are close in astrological longitude, we have to consider them as One Energy…
29 March (8:30 am PDT) – Our Forbidden Genius (dwarf planet Ixion) reaches Peak Strength (Stationary). Hopefully this means your Genius will Break Through its Chains. If you’re Struggling with Runaway Emotions, these are the Chains that you’re Throwing Off. Persist. You may not be able to Dissolve the Discomfort right away, but you can make the Decision to Stop Judging those Emotions, which is a Critical Step. 29 Sagittarius.
31 March (5pm PDT) – Our Willingness to Respond (dwarf planet Pholus) is Severely Tested (Stationary). For instance, it’s Imperative that we Respond to those Uncomfortable Emotions with Love and Peace rather than Reacting to them with the Shame and Loathing that we’re accustomed to. This Response is how we find the Keys to the Kingdom. 3 Capricorn.
3 April (5:30 am PDT) – Our Survival Instincts (dwarf planet Quaoar) are Lit Up very Strongly (Stationary). If this means Fear for you, Tap and Kegel it Out. Our Instincts should just be calmly and quietly Telling Us What To Do and When To Do It, not Scaring the pants off us. Fear may be one of those Forbidden Emotions that are being Lit Up. 4 Capricorn.
You may recall that we’re also Learning how to Consciously Shift our “Fate” around our Survival – see https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/2019/03/23/lachesis-pholus-quaoar-1/. Our Manifestation Skills are critical to our Survival, and we’re also Learning how to Consciously Shift our “Fate” around our Manifestation…
28 March (5pm PDT) – Lachesis Waning Trine Makemake. 5 Gemini-Libra. More to follow.
And while we’re at it, we’re also Learning how to Consciously Shift our “Fate” around those Intrusive Memories we spoke of…
26 March ( PDT) – Lachesis Waxing Square OR10. 5 Gemini-Pisces. More to follow.
The Equinox Full Moon was also Cuspal, so the chart of the Three Stations is similar…
…but more complex, partly because we’re including everyone from 27 to 6 Degrees, to include our usual three-Degrees of Sensitivity from Ixion and Quaoar, which are five Degrees apart. If we think of this as a Rebirth rather than a garden-variety astroevent, this is totally appropriate astrologically. And is we consider how much is happening, including Pluto-South Node, considering this a Rebirth is totally appropriate Existentially!
It would take a long while to Interpret this chart from the bottom up, so we’ll look at it from the top down.
First, note that our Willingness to Respond Fully to our Forbidden Genius’s Need to Come Out of the Closet in order to Ensure our Survival is a Self-Resolving Challenge (Diamond Star). That’s fabulous news! It means that the Planet is nearer to its Tipping Point into 5D than we Imagine. The would-be Impediments (Squares) to this are our Manifestation Skills (Makemake) and our need to Heal our Self-Sabotaging Beliefs (Chiron-Vesta). The Shift is Driven by Self-Love (Sappho Opposite the Stations).
Second, there are three more Self-Resolving Challenges (Diamond Stars) – Manifestation (Makemake), Rebirth (Haumea), and Vitality (Varuna)!
Third, notice that there are two Almost-Grand Sextiles, which Symbolize Blessings on Efforts where we take the First Step. Completing the Grand Sextiles are two well-known Fixed Stars…
One of the Almost-Grand Sextiles Grace-Fully joins Self-Love (Sappho), Soul (Uranus), Ending our Habit of Identifying with Karmic Intrusive Memories (Atropos-Lilith-Karma-OR10), Enlisting our Hidden Genius to Help Us Attend to our Survival (Ixion-Pholus-Quaoar Stations), and Rebirth (Haumea). The Star that Fills Out the Sextuplet is Regulus, the Royal Star that promises Great Success as long as one avoids the Temptation to Seek Revenge.
The second Almost-Grand Sextile Grace-Fully joins Manifestation (Makemake), Vitality (Varuna), Learning how to Consciously Change our Relationship to Fear and Violence (Lachesis-Sedna-Mars), Healing our Self-Sabotaging Beliefs (Chiron-Vesta), and Respect for All Things (Hopi). The Vacancy that Completes this Grace is the Star Toliman, well-known to anyone who follows exoplanet-hunting as Alpha Centauri, the closest Star to our Sun!
And Alpha Centauri is Chiron’s Foot, in Ovid’s version the location of his famous Wound!
And beyond two Grand Sextiles, we now, with the two Stars added, have a Grand Unx, or twelve planets more or less equally spaced around the Zodiac. The Unx (Twelfth Harmonic) is about Pattern-Breaking, so our Chains here are up for the bolt cutter. The twelve specific Patterns we can Break here include…
Healing our Resistance to our Forbidden Genius (Ixion-Pholus-Quaoar to Toliman)
Recognizing our Immortality (Toliman to Haumea)
Reorganizing our Life Mission to cover multiple Lifetimes, or Learning to Utilize Bleedthrough from our Parallels (Haumea to Makemake)
Manifesting Generosity of Spirit (Makemake to Regulus)
Liberating our Vitality from Analysis (Regulus to Varuna)
Loving Impediments to our Vitality into non-Existence (Varuna to Sappho)
Loving Fear and Violence into non-Existence (Sappho to Lachesis-Mars-Sedna)
Recognizing Fear and Violence as Teaching from the Soul (Lachesis-Mars-Sedna to Uranus)
Healing Beliefs that Inhibit Identification with our Soul (Uranus to Vesta-Chiron)
No Longer Believing that we Have to Identify with Traumatic Memories (Vesta-Chiron to OR10-Atropos-Karma-Lilith)
Relaxing our Judgments of the Sources of our Traumatic Memories (OR10-Atropos-Karma-Lilith to Hopi)
Replacing Competetion with Collaboration (Hopi to Ixion-Pholus-Quaoar)
As Iconoclast said in response to the previous post (which now has the alias Uh Oh 1).
Let’s talk more about when an Irresistible Force (Pluto) meets an (otherwise) Immovable Object (the South Node, aka Karma, Held Emotions, etc). Our Karma is Immovable because it’s ourFate. We’re Stuck with it, right? It’s Fate!
But we know that Fate is what happens to us when we’re Unconscious, and we know that by Becoming Conscious we can swap out Fate and swap in Choice. That Rolls the Stone aside, so it’s Immovable no more. So – if we’re Skillful and Lucky and Persistent – the Irresistible Force ends up Moving the Obstacle. Pluto is of course the Ruler of the Underwhere. No one gets out of there Alive!
But Pluto is also Micky’s everlovable Pup. Notice how Honest and Straightforward Pluto is with his Emotions…
When Emotions are working right, they come and go in a flash.
The Pluto-South Node event occured on 28 March (11:30 am PDT), but the Moon crosses these two on 29 March (3:30 pm PDT). Pluto-Moon is one of the most Difficult astroevents that people face, because it Demands that we be Present and Loving with ALL of our Emotions, including the Karmic Held Emotions that the South Node represents.
A “Held” Emotion is one that we’d rather Die than Feel. As we’ve said many times, the accent in that sentence is usually on the wrong syl-able – it’s not “I’d rather Die than Feel that,” it’s “I’d rather Die than Feel that” – Held Emotions Demand Ego Death, and there’s nothing the Ego hates more than Death. The Ego’s very job is to keep us Alive, and the Ego doesn’t know the Difference between Itself and Us. Or rather, when we Identify with the Ego, We don’t know the Difference between It and Us.
So of course we recommend Identifying with Soul rather than Ego, but of course that’s Easier Said Than Done. We could even say that, for all of us, our Mission (North Node) is to Identify with Soul in some fashion. And our South Node represents our Impediments to Identifying with Soul. The latest (April 2019) Wired Magazine includes an article on the Doomsday Clock (pp.13-15)…
“I get random reminders of my own mortality from WeCroak [https://www.wecroak.com/], an app with notifications that don’t mince words. ‘Don’t forget, you’re going to die.’ Recently it served up E. M. Forster, ‘Death destroys a [person], but the idea of death saves [them].’ Holding an idea of human extinction [ie, the Doomsday Clock] doubles as an extended confession of awe at the splendor and devastation we have wrought on Earth.”
Can we help but Identify with the Ego? Is Identifying elsewhere even Possible? Yes and No. As a former president famously said to Congress, “It depends on how you define ‘Is’.” Most of us do it all the time, whenever we Regress into a Memory, Merge with Other, or get lost in a thought or Emotion and lose track of the Bigger Picture. Ego is a very fuzzy word to most people; here I’m using “Identity” as the locus or focus of our Moment-to-Moment Consciousness, and “Ego” as a collage of how that unfolds over longer time periods, with a probably-greater emphasis on Survival – when our Moment-to-Moment Identity is Unrecognized Anxiety, our Ego and our Identity Merge.
In the chart of the Pluto-South Node Initiation…
In this picture, the North Node/Our Mission is the Focus of a Self-Resolving Conflict (Diamond Star), indicating that all of this Sturm und Drang around the South Node is just a narrow trail through a thicket that leads us to Liberation. Yes, we will need to consider all those other planets clustering around Pluto-South Node!
But besides the Self-Resolving Conflict, we also have Great Grace in the chart, in the form of the Almost-Grand-Sextile. The missing corner of that (22 Leo) is occupied by the Fixed Star Pherkad. Pherkad is one of the Guardians of the Pole Star, important to Celestial Navigation and used to tell the Hour of the Night!
Isn’t that Portentous! While we struggle through a Dark Night of Karmic Regression, in the depths of our Intuition we know how long yet we have to Endure before the Dawn arrives!
I hope you’ve been studying the previous post on asteroid Lachesis (Letting Go of Karma) and its foils Ixion (Forbidden Genius), Pholus (Fully Reponsive), and Quaoar (Survival Instincts), because we’re about to step in it. Here’s our Gauntlet for the coming week.
We’re giving exact dates and times below, but the specific Energy actually starts a week or so prior, and builds to a Peak around the times given. The Energy should then taper off fairly rapidly, but since these Energies are so close in time, and many of them close in Zodiacal Location as well, it’s going to be very hard to tell one from the other…
27 March (10:30 am PDT) – the Edge of Consciousness (asteroid Juno) Merges with (Conjoins) Ego Death (asteroid Nemesis). Sounds Fun, eh? More Practice as we Learn to Celebrate Ego Death – which is a synonym for Letting Go Of Self-Sabotage. 19 Gemini.
28 March (7am PDT) – Communication (Mercury) Improves Greatly (Stationary Direct). 16 Pisces.
28 March (11:30 am PDT) – An Unstoppable Force (Pluto) Meets (Initiates) an Otherwise Immovable Object (the South Node, our Forbidden Emotions and Self-Sabotaging Patterns aka Karma). Fortunately, Lachesis is Teaching us how to Move Otherwise Immovable Objects, and we Know that Karma is Dead anyway. 23 Capricorn.
29 March (8:30 am PDT) – Our Forbidden Genius (dwarf planet Ixion) reaches Peak Strength (Stationary). Hopefully this means it will Break Through its Chains. If you’re Struggling with Runaway Emotions, these are the Chains that you’re Throwing Off. Persist. You may not be able to Dissolve the Discomfort right away, but you can make the Decision to Stop Judging those Emotions, which is a Critical Step. 29 Sagittarius.
31 March (5pm PDT) – Our Willingness to Respond (dwarf planet Pholus) is Severely Tested (Stationary). For instance, it’s Imperative that we Respond to those Uncomfortable Emotions with Love and Peace rather than Reacting to them with the Shame and Loathing that we’re accustomed to. This Response is how we find the Keys to the Kingdom. 3 Capricorn.
3 April (5:30 am PDT) – Our Survival Instincts (dwarf planet Quaoar) are Lit Up very Strongly (Stationary). If this means Fear for you, Tap and Kegel it Out. Our Instincts should just be calmly and quietly Telling Us What To Do and When To Do It, not Scaring the pants off us. Fear is likely to be one of those Forbidden Emotions that are being Lit Up.
Lachesis (Ending Timelines by Choice) makes four more Angles during the last two weeks of March.
♥ Lachesis invites us to Explore our Curiosity (Waxing Quincunxes) around our Responsiveness (dwarf planet Pholus) on 22 March, and around our Survival Instincts (dwarf planet Quaoar) on 24 March. These two folks have been Dancing together cheek to cheek for several years now, and they’ll continue to Ask us to Respond to our Survival Instincts for many years hence – till the mid-2060s, as we mentioned in the previous post.
We can basically consider them as one Energy, about Being Responsive to our Survival Instincts, and here at the Quincunx, Being Curious about how to Respond to our Survival Instincts, but not to seek Answers. The objective is to Prime our Intuition. We do that by Asking Questions without seeking Answers (we often refer to this as PIAVA), and then Changing the Subject so that our Current Limitations don’t Constrain our Future to only Mirroring our Past.
Lachesis Cycles are about Learning to End Situations, Habits, and Timelines Consciously, rather than “patiently” waiting for our “Fate” to Change on its own.
Lachesis is currently five Signs ahead of Pholus and Quaoar, referred to as a Waxing (moving away from Conjunction) Quincunx (literally, five twelfths of the Zodiac) Angle. At the Waxing Quincunx, the Energy of a Cycle has already come into the Mainstream (at the Square), become Easy (the Trine), and is Preparing to Bloom (the Opposition) and Fruit (the Phitile). Blooming is even more of a Miracle than Growing, and (unless we’re an Accomplished and Powerful Shaman or Curandera) a Miracle Requires that our Attention is Elsewhere, because if we knew what we were doing it wouldn’t be a Miracle. Even the Shamans and Curanderas are “elsewhere” in the sense of being In Trance.
That’s why, if our Curiosity produces Answers rather than Awesome Questions, it’s not the kind of Curiosity we need. In the Olde Days the Medicine People Prayed every morning for the Sun to Rise; it was not a foregone Conclusion based on what had happened yesterday. At the Quincunx stage of any Cycle, if we’re depending on what happened yesterday, we’ll always miss the Miracle and miss the Opportunity to Step Off the Treadmill. Even just giving serious thought or even voice to the “dumb” Question, “Gee, I Wonder if the Sun will Rise this morning,” we’re Opening ourself to the Miracle that it is.
The current Lachesis-Quaoar Cycle (Paying Conscious Attention to our Survival Instincts) began 18 March 2016 at 30 Sagittarius, “The Pope, blessing the faithful.” The comma in there is interesting. It puts the emphasis on the Pope, with the Blessing almost an afterthought. The Mirror for the Pomp is the Faithful. It’s like a mutual backscratching. It’s the Equivalent of the Medicine People Praying for the Sun to Rise.
The current Lachesis-Pholus Cycle (Consciously Attending to our Responses) started 11 March 2016 at 28 Sagittarius, “An old bridge over a beautiful stream still in constant use.” This Symbol always reminds me of the war in Bosnia where Bridges dating from Roman times and still in constant use were Destroyed. Going Deeper, this is where the Ottoman Empire overrode Christianity and where the Romans settled the Ostrogoths, establishing the Regional “Fate” of Ethnic and Religious Conflicts that continue to this day. Letting Go of this Ancient Pattern will take a Lot of People Paying a Lot of Attention to how they Respond to most everything for a Long Time.
Dan Scranton’s Channeling for today takes this even Deeper…
“We have been giving you a lot of information over the years since we began coming through this channel, and we will continue to give you more. We notice that when some of you come across a guide, a collective, a teacher, or anyone who seems like they have answers, you give yourselves over to the teachings, the information, the guidance that comes through, and you give yourselves over to it completely.
“But now is the time to exercise your abilities to use your discernment. Here we are, coming to you as a non-physical collective, and soon you will be face-to-face with extra-terrestrials in bodies. So what we are suggesting is that you start using your own guidance now to determine for yourselves whether something resonates with you or not, because soon the stakes will be higher.
“You will have to feel out the extra-terrestrial being or beings that is standing right in front of you, and you will have to measure what their intentions actually are, and the best way for you to measure that is by how you feel. This is something to practice with the other humans that you have around you and also with the other humans who are spiritual teachers, channels, psychics, and so on.
“You need to check in with yourselves to see whether the information you are receiving is true for you in that moment. And even if this is a being, or collective, or individual, that you trust, it still serves you to check in every time. You need to ask yourself whether what you are receiving in that moment is valid for you. And again, you will be strengthening this muscle as you do so, and it is a muscle that will serve you very well when you have full and open contact with physical extra-terrestrial beings.
“But you also are served just by taking the time to check in with yourselves, because you might start living your lives according to a particular piece of information that has been given to you. What we are saying is, if it doesn’t resonate, then don’t follow that particular teaching, or don’t live your life according to a piece of information that you have received. Always trust your own guidance. Crosscheck everything with your own gut.
“And whatever you do, do not believe in the concept of infallibility. Believe in yourselves. Believe in your guidance and intuition, and be sure to follow it, because when you follow it, you then have the evidence that you need to confirm to you that what you were getting was correct. It was valid for you in that moment. And continue to do this. Continue to exercise those abilities and those muscles, and use the information that you get from beings like us as confirmation of what you already know.”
Here’s the chart of the amazing 20 March Full Moon…
Oops, that wasn’t the Map, that was the Territory (no, just a Snapshot of the Territory). Here’s the Map…
You can see the green line (Quincunx or Curiosity) connecting Lachesis to Pholus, Quaoar, and Ixion. It’s part of the Finger of God that makes the Pholus-Quaoar-Ixion T-Square (Challenge) a Diamond Star or Self-Resolving Challenge. The Mythic Atropos was the Goddess of Fate that was in charge of Ending Timelines, so she Challenges (Squares) Lachesis here – “Are you Really going to try to preempt my Sacred Duty here?” Atropos says. Lachesis, here played by your Ego, Responds, “Yes I am.”
But Changing our Fate always involves Entering New Territory, where we have no (recent) Experience. We do have Experience, but it dates to before we Fell into the Timeline that the Karma encodes. It’s probably as or more Ancient than those Bosnia Bridges. So is it Relevant now? You bet it is, because the Process of Falling into that Timeline was a heavy Emotional Experience. Consequently, Facing and Embracing that Held Emotion is a Portal to Liberation from this particular Karmic Pattern.
Which would normally Require a fairly serious Ego Death. But this is a Self-Resolving Challenge, a Diamond Star. Out of all the Players in the Cuspal Diamond Star, the only one that lingers behind the Cusp is Ixion, still in Sagittarius. Ixion in Sagittarius involves Letting Go of Restraints on our Unique Genius. With Ixion still in Sagittarius we can Rely on it’s rule that “The Way Out Is through Letting Go,” especially since it’s joined in Sagittarius by Jupiter (Expansion) and Ceres (Sustainability).
As is typical of Karma now that it’s Dead, It does not Grasp Us, We Grasp It. So all we need to do here is to Stop Grasping it. If you’re Conscious of the Pattern that you’re Letting Go Of, you can just Practice Letting Go Of it in all its many Guises. But in these circumstances we don’t even need to be Conscious of what its about in order to Let Go Of it – we can just PIAVA to Let Go Of it. For example, “Great Spirit, Please Lovingly, Gently, Rapidly, and Completely Liberate me from All Karmic Patterns that I’m Ready to Let Go Of.”
The most interesting Angle in this Full Moon chart is probably Chiron Waxing Square to Pholus, as this Cycle is now coming into the Mainstream (ie, the Waxing Square). The Energy of the Chiron-Pholus Cycle is about Responding to our Despair or Discouragement, or Learning How to Convert Despair to Miracles. Of course Victimhood would be our first Temptation, and most likely the most common Reaction. If you’ve read much here you know that we Recommend simply Poor-Sweethearting yourself instead.
The current Chiron-Pholus Cycle began sixty-three years ago, January 1956, at 6 Aquarius, “A parade of army officers in full dress.” We’re always glad that this Symbol puts the Army playing Dress-Up rather than Shoot-‘Em-Up. And Remember that, once we’re out of the Prison of Dualistic Logic, Opposites are Equal. So we can Interpret this Symbol as either Discipline or Yintegrity, or the Axis between them. We might think of this Axis as Self-Sovereignty – whether we Choose to Do As We Are Told, or to Follow Our Heart.
The 20 March (7pm PST) Full Moon is Impressive from several points of view…
The Sun is Merged with (Conjoins) a symbol for Despair and Miracles (dwarf planet Chiron); as we’ve averred many times, we Recommend Poor-Sweethearting any Disappointment that arises.
The Full Moon occurs just four hours after the Spring Equinox, which is traditionally considered to be an important milestone, when the World Begins Anew. That interpretation of course has its roots in the Northern Hemisphere, as Spring begins in Libra in the Other Half.
If we extend this a bit, we could say that the World (or at least the Plants) Beginning Anew is a matter of Solitary Creativity (Aries) in the North, and a matter of Relating to Other (Libra) in the South. In the South, Solitary Creativity is Required to Survive Autumn and Winter, whereas in the North, it’s Relationships. Not being much of a World Traveler, I can’t say whether this is Relevant to the Actual World, but I’d be interested in your Perspective.
The major Configuration in the Full Moon chart is the Reiteration of a Warning that our Survival, while likely, is not Assured (Ixion-Pholus-Quaoar Diamond Star) unless we start Paying Closer Attention to it.
So let’s start with the latter, the Diamond Star or Self-Resolving Challenge. If the Challenge is Self-Resolving, why is our Survival not Assured? Because about five years ago, two dwarf planets started Dancing cheek-to-cheek. Dwarf planet Quaoar (Kwou’-are) symbolizes our Survival Instincts. The God Quaoar taught the pre-Spanish Natives of what was to become California how to Manage their Not-Quite-Wild Landscape to Assure their Survival. Since then, Know-It-All Colonialists in California have ignored Quaoar’s Advice to their peril.
Quaoar’s Dance partner Pholus symbolizes Full Response. Pholus’s namesake in Greek Myth failed to take all of the Precautions he Could Have Taken, and the results Changed the World. We can’t say Should Have Taken, because there was no recent Precedent to forewarn him. It’s only in Hindsight that we can clearly see how he could have easily Prevented the Catastrophe.
Responsibility does not mean Blame. Responsibility means Being Able to Respond. If there is no recent Precedent, then, shy of Intuition or “Luck,” how are we to know What to be Prepared to Respond to? Once an untoward event has occurred, though, or Chicken Little has Warned us, we may be able to Figure Out how to Prevent it from recurring. So we Interpret Pholus as Being Fully Responsive. We might have to brainstorm to think of everything that could go wrong, but if we are to be Fully Responsive, that may be Required.
So the two dwarf planets that have been Intimate for the last five or so years, were Quaoar and Pholus – Becoming Fully Responsive to our Survival Instincts. As Greta Thunberg said at Davos, “Some people, some companies, some decision-makers in particular, have known exactly what priceless values they have been sacrificing to continue making unimaginable amounts of money. And I think many of you here today belong to that group of people.”
This requires a division between the “Us Versus them” Darwinian folks, who will Respond to their Survival Instincts by Hoarding, and the “We’re All In This Together” Rest of Us, who will Respond by Sharing. The Problem for us is that these two dwarf planets continue to be Intimate until the mid-2060s. We may be replaced by Robots long before then, so the few of us who are left may end up Struggling with the Robots for Control more than we Struggle with 1000-Year Floods. “Open the pod bay doors, HAL,” as Kubrick foretold half a century ago.
The Full Moon is the base of the T-Square (Challenge) that’s embedded in the Diamond Square, which means that Chiron Squaring Pholus is a big part of the Challenge, which is quite Curious, as it was Pholus’s failure to foresee all possibilities that led to Chiron’s famous Wound, which made him supposedly Unhealable. So this is very Ancient Karma that we’re dealing with.
We’re falling under the Influence of a recently discovered asteroid nicknamed “Bee-Zed,” which is Stationary 16 March (2pm PDT) in the middle of Capricorn. It’s an unusual animal, orbiting “backwards” around the Sun, with an orbit as long as Jupiter’s (about twelve years) – most asteroids take four or five years to circle the Sun. It’s orbit is elliptical; at the moment it’s an Earth-Sun distance beyond Jupiter, but when it’s closer to the Sun it’s no further from us than Mars. It symbolizes Transcendence.
Compared to what we’re used to, the Station has a simple chart…
The Station Merges with (Conjoins) symbols for Self-Sovereignty (dwarf planet Hylonome) and Trust (asteroid Eurydike), makes an Angle of Curiosity (Quincunx or five Signs away, the green line) to symbols for Consciousness (asteroid Juno), Intuition (dwarf planet Asbolus), and Ego Death (asteroid Nemesis).
We take that to mean that we’re Transcending the tired notions (mostly Resistance) that we Learned early on about Ego Death being anathema. We have after all recently Learned that an Ego Death, as Unpleasant and Scary as it can be when we’re in Resistance to it, is actually a huge Growth spurt that will allow us to Expand beyond what used to be our most distressing Limitations. We could easily say that our most Exhilarating Experiences – after the fact – have been Ego Deaths.
There’s also Grace in the chart, in the form of a Blessings-If-You-Take-the-First-Step Angle (Sextile, the blue line) to planets symbolizing Beginnings (asteroid Klotho) and Spirituality (Neptune). That our Discovery of a Whole New Relationship to Life, the Universe, and Everything (Klotho-Neptune) Clashes with (Square, the red line) our Old Fear of Ego Death is a given, and the Clash is much softened by Acceptance of our Transcendence.
The combination of red, green, and blue lines in one triangle is called, logically enough, a “Tricolor.” We unlock the Blessings in the blue line by directing our “right brain” to hold on to the Amazement embedded in the Curiosity of the green line and Resist the Compulsion that our “left brain” feels to “Figure It Out.” That Wonderment will Resolve the apparent Tension of the red line.
It’s almost Spring in the Northern Hemisphere! You know what that means…
Meanwhile, the ridiculous “Second Law of Thermodynamics” has been Transcended – shown up for the bunk that it is…
We run Time backwards all the time, whenever we Remember something. We don’t Manifest it outwardly very often because when Moses carved this “Second Law” on his stone tablet, we Believed it. It was Carved in Stone after all, how could it not be True?
We’re detouring to examine the minutiae of the Angles that asteroid Lachesis is making with other planets, under the thesis that Lachesis can Teach us to Change or End undesirable Timelines Purposely, rather than remaining their Victim. The Mythological Lachesis was one of the “Fates,” the Goddess who Determined the length of the “Cord” that wove the Fabric of Destiny.
But we Believe that Fate and Free Will are not properties of Reality, but yet another False Duality of the mind of the Observing Huper. It’s the mind (and Politics and Manipulation) that Operates in Either/Or, while the Universe (along with Spirit and Manifestation) Operates in Both/And. Fate is what Befalls us when we Operate Unconsciously; Choice is ours when we Operate Consciously. The first Requirement for Operating Consciously is Awareness.
So we’re examining the Lachesis Cycles, to see what it can Teach us about Choice. In the previous post we discussed the Lachesis-Chiron Cycle and its Impact on whether we find Life, Time, and Opportunity to be Discouraging or Exciting. In the post before that we mentioned the Lachesis-Uranus Cycle and its Contribution to how much we Allow the Soul to drive our Lives rather than the Ego. Next up is the Lachesis-Varuna Cycle, which has the Potential to bring our Health and Vitality under Conscious Influence.
On 14 March (3:30 am PDT), Lachesis Completes a Waning Sextile to (two Signs behind) Varuna. If we allow one Degree of Sensitivity to this Angle, then this Energy comes into our Field around 10 March. At three Degrees, it’s more like 1 March. One Degree is the more traditional measure, but the more Sensitive among us will probably find three to be more Realistic. As we said in the previous post, the Sextile delivers Grace in matters where we Take the First Step, and Striving to Upgrade our Consciousness is certainly an excellent example of Taking a First Step.
In a Waxing Sextile – the Sextile that occurs shortly after the Initiation of a Cycle, while the Cycle is in the Building phase – it’s fairly Clear what we can do to further the Cycle. A Cycle doesn’t hit the Mainstream till the Waxing Square, so at the Waxing Sextile we’re kind of on our own, without a lot of Outside Support or Acknowledgement. If we Recognize that and Make Use of it, we can get in early on the Trend and, as it were, “Buy Low,” or perhaps help Determine the Vocabulary of the Conversation that will eventually erupt into the Mainstream.
But a Waning Sextile – the Sextile that occurs shortly before the End of a Cycle, is a different story. A Cycle for practical purposes Ends at its Waning Square, so by the time of the Waning Sextile, we’re Descending into the Void. We could for instance Take the First Step to withdraw our Investment in the Cycle’s Energy, but even that would be a little late. It may be more appropriate to Take the First Step to Clear Away All Expectations around the issues that the Cycle has Influence upon.
So the Lachesis-Varuna Cycle is about Making Conscious Choices about our Vitality. That doesn’t mean getting a flu shot or Changing our Supplements. It means that we start to Recognize that it’s our Thoughts, and How we Deal With our Emotions, and How we Relate to Spirit that have the most Powerful and Foundational Impact upon our Health and Vigor. Compare how you Relate to your Vitality to how you Relate to your Abundance. Is there any sense in which you’re in Scarcity about your Health?
Do you Respond to Messages from your Body – such as Pain or Discomfort – with Gratitude and Full Attention (to the Message-Sending Organ), or do you go directly to Symptom Alleviation? Do I regard Pain as a Bother, or as a Gift? Do I look to see how my Pain may be Influenced by my Habits, Thoughts, Emotions, Karma, and Patterns of Love, Fear, Gratitude, Regret, Embrace, and Rejection toward the Sources of Discomfort in my Body? Am I a Victim of my Discomfort, or am I Adept at Manifesting the Comfort I want?
I find that it’s rare to meet someone who doesn’t stare at me blankly when I remind them that Body, Spirit, Intellect, and Emotion are not different, independent “Levels” of Life whose paths never cross, but different Perspectives on the Unitary and Multifarious Reality that Comprises our “Usness” and the World around us. (I don’t even try to tell people that “We” don’t end at our Skin or our Egos.) One of the fastest ways to Change a facet of our Lives that we don’t Want, is to Shift to a different Perspective on it.
A Physical Issue? Do your Thoughts about it contribute to your Discomfort, or are they Healing you? Are your Feelings about it conducive to Healing, or to Harm? What are you Praying for? Remember that All Thoughts are Prayers and All Prayers are Answered. “I’m Worried about this Ache, I better go see what the Doctor has to say about it” is a Prayer, and what is it Praying for? For Surrendering your Power, and not to any Higher Power.
A Waning phase of a Cycle doesn’t mean that the Issue, such as Vitality (Varuna), or our Victimhood or Adeptness toward our Health (Lachesis-Varuna), goes away. It means that the current Specific Cycle is Fini. So what do we know about the Cycle that’s Ending, the Energy we need to Let Go Of?
It initiated mid-June 2014 in 26 Cancer, “Guests are reading in the library of a luxurious home.” So, these are not owners, and perhaps not even regular visitors to this Abundance, they’re “Guests.” In the context of Vitality, these are not Empowered, Active Participants in their own Life Force, they’re more akin to visitors in the Doctor’s office. But they are Studying – something. They could be immer Strebend. Without their own Resources, they’re able to Borrow someone else’s. So maybe the four years and nine months of this Cycle are about Getting Our Own Resources for Self-Healing.
The chart of the Initiation tells us more about how we’ve spent the last half-decade… The Initiation Squares the Nodes, telling us that this Opening to Conscious Suzerainty over our Vitality, to the extent that we’ve Lived it, has been an integral part of our Lifetime Journey and Mission. We may not often have been Conscious about this part of our Journey, but we can rest assured we Harvested the Experience that was necessary for us to Harvest. When we consider all we’ve Learned about Tapping, Poor-Sweethearting, Theta Healing and the like, even if we haven’t yet applied it consistently to Physical Healing, we’ve Learned a lot that we can apply.
The Nodes are joined by Eurydike (Trust) on the North (Mission) and Eris (Revelation of what’s been Denied) on the South (Held Emotions, Karma), so we can Trust that we’ve Learned what we needed to Learn and Opened doors to what we needed to Let Go Of.
The incredible Stellium (group of three or more planets) in late Sagittarius has been a relatively Easy Path (Trine Bridge) around or through our Vitality Issues. The Stellium is about Gaining Confidence that We’re Being Fully Responsive to Enough Self-Sovereignty to Overcome Our Programmed Shame and Begin to Embrace our Forbidden Genius and Appreciate Its Role in Our Survival as an Individual and as a Species (Chariklo-Pholus-Hylonome-Ixion-Quaoar).
Then there are the three Challenges (T-Squares, red triangles) that aren’t directly connected to the 26-Degree Initiation itself, but which are part and parcel of the Cycle.
First, we’ve Opened our Intuition (Asbolus) with God/Goddess’s Help (Neptune) to End the Karmic Vows which had been serving as Hard Boundaries that we’ve been working to Overcome, against the New Life-Serving Beliefs and Expanded Perspectives that we’ve been Gaining (Atropos-Orcus-Pallas).
The other two T-Squares Complement one another. They’re about how The Most Important Thing (Saturn) is to Change our Values (Venus) to Allow Unconditional Self-Love (Sappho), and how we Heal our Despair (Chiron) by Facing the Truth (Veritas) of our Limitless Potential (Chaos).
Can you see how these Changes have been playing out in your Young Life over the last five years? It’s time to Congratulate ourself for a job well done, Change the Subject, and Trust that we’ve Learned enough to now Instinctively Create a New Life where we’re more Adept at exerting Healthy Control over our Physical Circumstances. Lord knows there are plenty of other Cycle to fret about, so we should be Delighted to know we can Let Go of this one, at least till September when the Next Cycle begins.
So what about the September Cycle? Where will it take us? No, it’s time to Change the Subject. The more we can Accept that we’re In The Void phase where we’re Purging everything we Know about Lachesis-Varuna in order to be Available for the New, the more we’ll be an Open Channel for that new Energy when it Arrives. But it hasn’t Arrived yet, and if we meet it from our current Perspective, the Perspective of the End of the Old Cycle, our Expectations will cause us to miss most of it, to Frame it in obsolete terms that will cripple it.
What would have been Lachesis-Chiron 1 is part of the previous, Recess Portal, post. Lachesis Cycles muscled their way into the previous post, which was to be a post about Recess, and serendipitously turned out to be momentous. Taking advantage of that Intuitive Intrusion, let’s focus on Lachesis Cycles for a while.
Asteroid Lachesis, after all, is all about Choosing our Timelines Consciously, which when we get the hang of it we can use for Terminating Karmic Patterns, Ending Self-Sabotage, Enjoying Abundance (which means Having Enough to Share), Stopping Abuse, Converting Fear to Power, Co-Creating What We Want, and a zillion other Transformations.
A Timeline is any sequence of Time or Life that features a specific Pattern or Habit or Characteristic. A Lifetime is a Timeline. A Career is a Timeline. A Relationship is a Timeline. A Hobby is a Timeline. An Obsessive or Repeating Thought or Feeling is a Timeline. A Quality of Life is a Timeline. If anyone doesn’t understand what a Timeline is, please leave a comment, and I’ll try to explain further.
Be Mindful that most of us have been programmed into Dualities, making it difficult to even Imagine Living without them. When we PIAVA Abundance, for instance, do we simply push our Scarcity into the closet, where it can pull our strings behind our back? We have to recognize that in the Real World (as opposed to the Snapshots we Create of it in our minds), Abundance and Scarcity are the same Dimension.
When we look at this Dimension with Self-Love and Self-Confidence it appears to us as Abundance or Gratitude. When we look at it through the eyes of Fear and Doubt or Anxiety, it’s painted in Scarcity or Envy. This is the Nature of a Participatory Universe, as Gregg Braden calls it. Our Expectations are as Powerful as, or more Powerful than, External Reality.
♥ The Lachesis-Chiron Cycle is about Learning to Choose to End any Discouraging Patterns in our Life – for instance by Discerning them and then Poor-Sweethearting them.
The current Lachesis-Chiron Cycle began 20 January 2018 in 26 Pisces, “Watching the very thin Moon Crescent appearing at Sunset, different people realize that the time has come to go ahead with their different projects.” The first Sunset appearance of a Crescent Moon, which occurs several days after each New Moon, is indeed a Time to Begin New Projects, and there’s no better Project than Choosing to End Discouraging Patterns in our Life.
The chart of the Chiron-Lachesis Initiation and hence of the Cycle…
…has two important features. First, the overall Configuration is a Yin Gate. A Yin Gate is about Eschewing Binary Logic and Accepting Paradox, and the crux of this one is the Contrast (Opposition) between Fear (Sedna) and Action Directed toward Respect for All Things (Mars-Hopi). Of course if you’ve been through February’s Sedna action you’ll be Kegeling Fear into Power and working with the Contrast between Power and Action Directed Toward Respect for All Things.
Contrast is a Binary sort of thing that Paradox leaves behind, so our first step would be to Realize that we need to be Open to Learning New Things and Appeal to the Great Unconscious (ie, everything we don’t know and most especially what we don’t know that we don’t know) by using PIAVA. Like maybe “I Wonder if I have any Power to Increase Respect in the World” followed closely by Changing the Subject so we’re actually Open to Receiving New Perspectives rather than getting Assaulted with the same barrage of Tired Old Metaphors that the intellect always trots out to keep us from Growing past our Limitations.
Whatever Insights we get tomorrow may Inform the “New Projects” we are to begin now. Currently, this Cycle is at the Waxing Unx stage, which means that the New Energy in this Cycle is just going Underground in order to Subvert the Efforts of the remaining Investors in the Old Cycle to maintain their Profits from it. So if your Insight suggests that you Go Public with a big PR campaign, that’s not inadvisable, but do be Prepared to Expect a slow start and a long slow slog at getting Attention and Respect for your Agenda.
Otherwise, work it Underground. The Cambridge Analytica method of manipulating the Great Manipulator Facebook to set up arguments that can only come down to the Conclusion you want, are well described in https://www.wired.com/story/italy-five-star-movement-techno-utopians/. If you’re working this as an aspect of Personal Growth, Gregg Braden’s book The Spontaneous Healing of Belief has a rather fascinating exercise devoted to Exposing your Self-Sabotaging by still-Unconscious Beliefs, at pp.90-97.
Second, the Chiron-Lachesis Initiation itself makes a T-Square (Challenge) on the Opposition between dwarf planets Chaos (Unlimited Potential) and Ixion (Forbidden Genius). That’s Big, as it means that this Cycle will go a long way toward Informing us about the Leap Forward that awaits us when we finally Love our Forbidden Genius into the forefront of our everyday Personality.
This isn’t the time for a suite of essays about the intricacies of the Yin Gate Configuration, but the base of the Chiron-Lachesis T-Square is one of the Oppositions in the Yin Gate, just not the central, Paradox-Leading Opposition. The blue box enclosing the Yin Gate is a “Golden Rectangle,” so colored because the ratio of its ends to its sides is the Golden Ratio of Sacred Geometry fame.
A Golden Rectangle on its own is a fountain of Blessings, which is usually Interpreted using the diagonal Oppositions – here Ixion-Chaos and Haumea (Rebirth) to Uranus-Eris-Moira (which Offers us the Choice of Continuing Suffer the Negative Impact of Denying our Separation from our Soul, or Owning Up to it and Facing the Resulting Ego Death).
We Interpret an Opposition maximally by focusing on the Coin rather than the Heads or the Tails. The Coin of Haumea to Uranus-Eris-Moira is simply Facing the Music and getting on with our Growth. The Coin of Ixion-Chaos is Transcending our Limitations. This is a very Powerful Golden Rectangle, particularly for anyone aspiring to move from 3D to 5D.
But when we add the central Opposition and create a Yin Gate, we’ve now greatly complicated the Golden Rectangle’s Oppositions, adding a third, and adding four crossed Quincunxes, symbolizing the sort of Curiosity which Seeks Answers at its own Peril. I’ll let you Interpret the Quincunxes.
Consider this…
“Researchers trained [using TM] a group of people to ‘feel’ peace in their bodies while believing that it was already present within them, rather than simply thinking about it in their minds or praying ‘for’ it to occur…
“These people were positioned throughout the war-torn areas of the Middle East. During the window of time when they were feeling peace, terrorist activities ceased, the rate of crimes against people went down, the number of emergency-room visits declined, and the incidence of traffic accidents dropped. When the participants’ feelings changed, the statistics were reversed. This study confirmed the earlier findings: when a small percentage of the population achieved peace within themselves, it was reflected in the world around them…
“The data was so consistent that the researchers were able to identify how many people are needed to share the experience of peace before it’s mirrored in their world. The number is the square root of one percent of the population… In a city of one million people, the number is about 100. In a world of 6 billion, it’s just under 8,000… The results were eventually published in The Journal of Conflict Resolution in 1988.”
–Gregg Braden, op cit, p.48.
So let’s get to work on being part of the 8,000, ok?
After this last week’s 6 March Chaos-Station (Unlimited Potential) Vesta-Neptune (Allowing Spirit to Ventilate our Beliefs) New Moon, the “very thin Moon Crescent appearing at Sunset” was visible last evening (10 March). Indeed a Time to Begin New Projects, and as we said, there’s no better Project than Choosing to End Discouraging Patterns in our Life.
And, the current Angle between Lachesis and Chiron is a Sextile (two Signs), implying Blessings on any Project where we make the first Effort. So we can pick a Chronic Affliction (Physical, Emotional, Mental, Spiritual, or Other) or two (not too many), and bring out all of our Big Guns to Change it – Tapping, Theta, Unseen Therapist, Poor-Sweetheart, etc., not at all to exclude any other Tools you brought with you!
If any of the terms we’re using are unfamiliar, click on the term in the “Categories” list at the right on your screen. If he term isn’t there, Ask for it in a Comment. If the list isn’t there, find it at https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/.
For instance, suppose we’re Spending Time worrying about Scarcity. That could Create more Scarcity for us, but we can’t just Power-Over Scare-City, or it really will Procreate itself. Manifestation advice suggests avoiding Negation, but Negativity has its place. If our thoughts are on Scarcity we have to be honest with ourself about it before we can Change it. In fact, we can’t Change anything until we Accept it Exactly as it is. That’s why we Tap on “Even though I’m Obsessing about Scarcity, I Deeply and Completely Love and Accept Myself…”
But if we’re Affirming or Praying or Intending or Visualizing or Commanding, or another PIAVA, we do want to Avoid Negation. We want to Affirm More Abundance rather than Less Scarcity, Safety rather than No More Abuse.
“Dear ones, I am Lord Merlin, I come forth with love, truth, and inspiration to share with you. I wish to encourage you to move quickly along your ascension pathway. It is important during this stage of ascension which is dedicated to your cultivating and empowering your intimate relationship with the Creator, that you appreciate all that you are and have in this present moment.
“I, Lord Merlin, am especially speaking of your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual skills and abilities as well as the talents that are unseen by you. It is essential to appreciate, value and honour yourself and all you manifest as upon the Earth now, as in doing so you are celebrating your relationship with and as the Creator. When you allow yourself to be fully present with the Creator you see yourself beyond your limitations and the beliefs that hinder and tether you to a certain idea of yourself.
“Each soul upon the Earth has a large community of guides who assist and support them throughout their lifetime. Some guides are more prominent and influential, while others are unknown to you and yet offer a valuable service of support. Most people have more than 12 guides within their community of guides. Each guide holds a special service, purpose, and role of assisting you in your spiritual and physical evolution upon the Earth.
“Your guides have a very important purpose and role; they are a reflection of all that is your truth. Your guides see, sense and acknowledge you as the expanded, powerful, limitless, Creator expression that you are. They hold this vision of your truth within their beings and project it to you constantly.
“Each time you communicate with any of your guides, whether you are aware of their names/presence or not, they activate your truth from within your being, encouraging you to be the expression of the Creator you are. Communicating and connecting with your guides is akin to seeing your expansive Creator self in the mirror or witnessing all you are capable of. The skills and abilities you recognise within your guides are also present within you; their role is to remind you of who you truly are.
” ‘My beloved community of guides, I call upon you all to surround me now with your presence and loving energy. Please support me in receiving the energy, light, love, and wisdom you wish for me to accept and acknowledge now. I recognise all you share with me is a reflection of the truth and Creator presence of my being. As I receive your energy, connecting with you all on a deeper level, I am connecting with myself in new, inspirational and limitless ways. I invite you all to demonstrate to me the skills and abilities I embody, that are waiting to emerge and be recognised by me to support my ascension. In love and thanks.’
“Allow yourself to focus upon your breathing, imagining each breathe you inhale the light, love, and truth of your community of guides. Know that your community of guides who have been with you since before your birth onto the Earth are activating the presence of the Creator within you now.
“Appreciating yourself could be likened to loving yourself unconditionally which awakens your self and Creator expression. The self-appreciation, I, Lord Merlin speak of is to honour and respect the presence of the Creator within you and that this presence has an expression as well as manifestation through you.”
Every time I say this something else pops out of the woodwork – the Universe is like that – but on the schedule I have, we’re in for a bit of a short break.
That’s a favorite line of mine – “Hesitation has robbed me of my throne.”
On 10 March (1:30 pm PDT) asteroid Lachesis Enters Gemini. We regard Sign Changes as interesting, but not usually momentous. Of course both Chiron (Despair and Miracle) and Uranus (Soul) have recently Changed Signs, so any Sign Change will light up those two heavy hitters, but it’s still pretty minor on the grand scale, as the Gap between Lachesis and Uranus is an Unx (one Sign, or Pattern-Breaker) and the Angle between Lachesis and Chiron a Sextile (two Signs, or Blessing if you Take the FirstStep).
Lachesis itself is about Changing Timelines Consciously, so in Gemini (Flexibility) that should be Easier than it was while Lachesis was in Taurus (Stability, or sometimes possibly Stuck-in-the-Mud). Lachesis was the Goddess in charge of Cutting the Chord, to determine how long a particular thread of Fate would Afflict us. But Fate happens to us when we’re Unconscious; once we’re Conscious, “Fate” becomes Choice.
♥ So Lachesis Waxing Unx Uranus (Exact 11 March, 3pm PDT) will give us a fabulous Opportunity to Let Go of Obsolete Habit Patterns that Isolate us from our Soul. So you might mark your calendar for 10-11 March to Pray something like, “God/Goddess, Creator of All That Is, I Command that All Impediments to the Complete Surrender of My Ego to My Soul Be Lovingly and Gently Removed. It Is Done, It Is Done, It Is Done! Thank You, God/Goddess! … Show Me!”
If that sounds too Scary, Tap It Out. Be Honest about it; you ain’t fooling nobody but yourself. Or temper it – change “Complete Surrender” to “Full Collaboration,” for instance. We don’t have to Take Advantage of All Enlightenment Opportunities, after all, even if they are the Chance of a Lifetime. Unless of course we’ve been Striving all our Life for exactly this. This happens every 4-5 years, so we’ll get another chance or several.
Stretching too far can actually set us back. The “Lovingly and Gently” will help a lot to keep us “in bounds,” though. And we’ve got several days to Perfect our Prayer. We want it to be Assertive but Comfortable. We can do a lot to Prepare ourself over the next few days, trying out different versions of our Prayer, looking for Fear or other Discomfort, Tapping that out, adjusting the Prayer, and trying it again. As of midnight tonight (12am PDT 8 March), Lachesis is 3/4 of one Degree shy of its Unx to Uranus, so the Force will definitely be With Us.
♥ And Lachesis Waxing Sextile Chiron (Exact 16 March, noon PDT) will help immensely as we ferret out any Discouragement or Doubt or Skepticism about our (and the Planet’s) approach to 5D. It’s not out of your Hands – it’s up to All of Us to move the Planet Forward with our Unwavering Clarity about our Lust for Collaboration, Cooperation, Co-Creation of What We Want, and the Demise of Disrespect, Hateism, Competition over who can be the Meanest, and our own Undeliberate Manifestation of What We Don’t Want.
No one has to be Perfect, we all just have to be a tiny bit closer today than we were yesterday. And if we’ve slid backwards, that’s okay too, we just need to Accept it as a Natural part of the Process and Recognize that we probably just went back to Retrieve another Lost part of ourself – or of someone else. The most important thing is that we’re On the Bus. We’re talking about Chiron here, so use your Poor-Sweethearts liberally. “You Poor Sweetheart, you don’t Feel Fully Enlightened today, do you.” Big Surprise, as Steven Levine would say. Then be sure to Change the Subject.
Or, if we are Feeling pretty Enlightened, we can Attend to our Hubris. Enlightenment isn’t Full of Itself, no matter what your self-professed Enlightened friends say. “You Poor Sweetheart, you Feel very Enlightened today, don’t you.” Then, before you Change the Subject, you can Tap Out “Even Though I’m Feeling Smug, I Deeply and Completely Love and Accept Myself…” When you Laugh at yourself and Feel Joy Rising, then you can Change the Subject.
When we get past Lachesis Unx Uranus (ie, after 3pm PDT 11 March), Lachesis will be a little less than one Degree short of its 16 March Sextile to Chiron – in other words, well within Sensitivity. Again, the Force will be With Us. So after we’ve Surrendered to our Soul, we can jump right in from 11-16 March with our Poor-Sweethearts.
♥ By then, asteroid Bee-Zed will be Stationary (Exact 16 March 5:30 pm PDT). Bee-Zed (2015 BZ509 to be exact), recall, is that Jupiter-scale (ie, 12-year orbit) asteroid that orbits backwards, and symbolizes Transcendence. If we assume we’ll be Feeling that Energy for about a week ahead of the Station, then the whole week should feel pretty Ecstatic. If it’s not Feeling that way for you, no worries – “You Poor Sweetheart, you aren’t Feeling Ecstatic, are you” – then Change the Subject. There’s always more than one way to Feed a Feline.
We’ll be several inches off the ground when we walk up to that remarkable 20 March Equinox (3pm PDT) Full Moon (7pm PDT) bang on Chiron (9pm PDT)! How often does a Full Moon happen on a March Equinox? Two or three times in a Huper Lifetime. Add Chiron (Despair => Miracles) to that, and we really are talking about the Opportunity of a Lifetime – of Lifetimes of Lifetimes!
♥ Dan Scranton’s Arcturian Friends have good news for us today too…
“We are especially pleased about giving you this transmission because we have noticed how many more of you are actualizing the energies and acclimating to them without nearly as many ascension symptoms as you once experienced while on this conscious journey. When you first began experiencing ascension symptoms, you were doing a lot of purging, and that was very uncomfortable and confusing.
“And then you got to the more chronic ascension symptoms, which included fatigue, aches and pains, and all sorts of medical anomalies. And now we see more and more of you freeing yourselves from these experiences. And it is because you have been able to use the time that you needed during the more intense ascension symptoms. You were able to use that time to go within and do your processing and clearing.
“Many of you have also made wonderful connections with the non-physical and the higher dimensions because of your willingness to listen to your bodies. You stopped going and doing all the time, and you’ve been able to feel into the healing energies and the vitality that you have been sent over decades. Now, as the energies come in, you don’t have as much gunk in the way of them. You don’t have as many blockages, and we see many of you doing so much more conscious receiving now that you are aware of what is going on and your place in all of it.
“You don’t need that rude wake up call that the ascension symptoms have been. We are also thrilled to let you know that there have been several new collectives contributing to the downloads, activations, and upgrades. You are still activating parts of yourselves that you didn’t even know were there, and those awakening processes will be easier on all of you because of what you have already done.
“So you can relax more and rest, and even better, you can have that knowing that this journey, as challenging as it has been at times, has all been worth it.”
