Ixion

“Rilke poignantly captures the shifted and distinctly different perceiving I [Stephen Buhner] am talking about… but he also encounters a depth, a meaning, that is tremendously disturbing to him…

” ‘But the woman; she had completely collapsed into herself, forward into her hands… I began to walk softly as soon as I saw her… The street was too empty; its emptiness was bored; it caught my step from under my feet and clattered about with it hither and yon, as with a wooden clog. The woman startled and pulled away too quickly out of herself, too violently, so that her face remained in her two hands. I could see it lying in them, its hollow form. It cost me indescribable effort to stay with those hands and not look at what had torn itself out of them. I shuddered to see a face from the inside, but still I was much more afraid of the naked flayed head without a face.’

“Rilke is not talking here about a fantasized image, but something deeper, an underlying truth he found one day when he was not expecting it. Looking at the world with his deeper perceiving, he came upon the real face underneath the one the woman wore in her daily life. He captures the terror that can be – and sooner or later, always is – encountered when using feeling perception to see and feel the world around you. Although the beauty is what we’re most drawn to, in the darkness and terror are truths that all travelers in the metaphysical background eventually encounter, must face, and come to terms with. They all have teachings that are necessary. If you are so afraid of the dark that you always run from it, it is impossible to truly learn to heal anything – either landscapes or people…

“In this process, we have to learn – and it does take time, years of it – to walk in damaged landscapes – of both the Earth and the human heart – and not lose our way, not lose ourselves. For when you enter the world with your feeling sense intact, you will encounter everything that is there. Eventually. That is why learning how to take care of your deepest self is an essential part of the journey.”

–Stephen Harrod Buhner, Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Real: Beyond the Doors of Perception into the Dreaming of Earth, pp.277-279.

The Exaggerated Exposure of Our Hidden Forbidden Genius that intensifies until 31 March 2021 (8:07 pm PDT) may Conflict Painfully with The Truth of Our Heart (in the guise of a naked Square from asteroid Aletheia in 30 Pisces back to the Station of dwarf planet Ixion in 2 Capricorn). This is the Coming of Age of a four-year Cycle that began in early 2020, and is about Seeing through the Illusion of what’s Politically Correct in 3D, to see the Underlying Pain of the Earth, and of Her Denizens (Ixion Initiated Aletheia 8 January 2020 at 29 Sagittarius, Sabian Symbol “A fat boy mowing the lawn of his house on an elegant suburban street,” and this is the Waxing Square, the signal for the Energy of a Cycle to finish its Apprenticeship and claim its rightful place in the Mainstream). Probably no coincidence that the timing of the Karumbavirus is similar.

We may Experience this Adventure, till 31 March, as Exceedingly Painful, or as Ecstatically Liberating – or Both. The Pain is Intensified by the Square being Cuspal. A Square Angle (90-Degrees or three Signs of Separation) signifies Becoming Adept by working through a Challenge. Ixion is in Capricorn, Cardinal Earth or Creativity with Matter and Form. So a Waxing Square to it “should be” from Aries, Cardinal Fire or Intuitively Creative Spirituality.

But this Square is from the Last Degree of Pisces, and Pisces is about Letting Go of Obsolete Emotional Baggage. If we’ve been Trusting the Truth of our Heart since mid-January, when Aletheia entered Pisces, and we’ve been Honest and Thorough about Feeling and then Letting Go of our Karmic Pain and Poignancy, then the Last Degree of Pisces will be a Surprise Celebration of ??? – We Won’t Know What We’re Celebrating, we’ll just Feel the Excitement of Celebration and a vague sense of newfound Freedom, because what comes next in Aries (Aletheia enters Aries at 4:22 am PDT on 3 April) is always a Mystery that won’t begin to take Form until Taurus. Aletheia gets to Taurus on 9 July.

But if we’ve Avoided or Denied or Projected or Gotten Lost In our Karmic Emotional Pain, then the Cuspal Square will be Giving us one more Chance to Embrace the Pain and Let It Go. The Good Goddess has generously given us plenty of excellent candidates to Project It On, so we’ll want to Call that Energy back and Own it. The Pain will almost undoubtedly include Reliving the parts of our Infancy and Childhood where our Unique Genius was Suppressed. Hopefully the Mars-Vesta-Pluto Mjölnir that we Enjoyed at the Equinox will have Given us, or will Give us (the Equinox chart reigns for at least three months), enough Epiphanies about our Righteous Anger at our Programmers for Suppressing our Deepest Talents, that we can Convert our Ancient Anger into Current-Moment Excitement about Recalling and Restoring those Talents, which are so Necessary for Healing the Planet. And of course Ourself.

The Ixion Station chart…

…also includes two other Major Hassles (T-Squares), or Opportunities to add Skills to our quiver.

One tells us that By Interpreting all Intrusive Memories as Intuitions that will Lead us to Healing and Freedom, we can Easily Recover our Lost Instinct for Converting Fear to Power. This T-Square Focuses on asteroid Moira (Fate and Choice) Merged With (Conjunct) dwarf planet Gonggong (Intrusive Memories), from the base of the Debate (Opposition) between our Instincts (Moon) and our Temptation to Trust Fear as a Warning rather than taking the Opportunity to Convert our Fear to the Power that we may need for Responding (dwarf planet Sedna). Kegels and Tapping both Convert Fear to Power. While the primary Focus of any T-Square is on the planet at the Midpoint between the other two (ie, the one at the 90-Degree angle), in this T-Square a Finger of the Goddess (Pay Attention!) points at the Sedna/Fear side of the Opposition.

The second T-Square advises that Attending to our Physical Well-Being and having Confidence in our Unconditional Self-Love will move us toward a multi-level Rebirth into Enlightenment. The Focus of the T-Square is about Rebirth on both the Physical (dwarf planet Haumea) and the Karmic (asteroid Klotho) Levels, and Enlightenment (dwarf planet Zhulong, the Chinese Red Dragon of Enlightenment). Rebirth on the Physical Level doesn’t necessarily mean Physical Death – you could just be switching the Identity you regard as “You” into a new Parallel. The T-Square Resolves the False Argument (all Dualistic Arguments are Fictional because Reality isn’t Dual) between the Life Force (dwarf planet Varuna) and our Confidence, or Lack of it, in our Self-Love (dwarf planet Chariklo Merged with asteroid Sappho). A second Finger of the Goddess or Yod (Pay Attention!) singles out Varuna.

Converting Fear to Power (Sedna) and the Life Force (Varuna), by virtue of their respective Yods, are Power Points in the chart. However, they’re also the feet of a third Finger of the Goddess that further Illuminates the already Bright – Stationary, Out of Bounds – Ixion (Learning to Express our Unique Genius) as the True Core of the chart. All eight planets (counting the Conjunctions as one “planet” each) in the chart are highly Networked with one another, reinforcing the notion that 5D is founded in Mutual Collaboration rather than Competition.

For comparison, Marilyn Raffaele channels the Arcturian Perspective for us…

https://madmimi.com/p/c417221

“It is tempting even for the very evolved to slip into fears that arise from outer appearances, but never doubt that the Divine Plan is solidly in place. You, the awakened ones, are today’s spiritual warriors simply because you carry the Light of truth in consciousness. Because there is only One, the higher resonating energy that you secretly and silently carry with you acts to lift and assist others to recognize how much of what has been accepted as normal, is in reality false, cruel, and unnecessary.

“Life is difficult for most at this time. People are tired and want things to be normal. Try to think of present times as a pause rather than a problem. A pause that was necessary in order to stop the three dimensional merry-go-round that so many have been living on in the belief that it was normal. The ‘pause’ has allowed many to step back and re-evaluate their beliefs and life choices.

“This ‘pause’ in normal activity has forced many to courageously make changes that align more closely with their awakening state of awareness. Rather than continuing to plug along with choices made from a previous and less aware state of consciousness, the break from habit and routine is helping many to examine themselves more honestly, a process that would have taken much longer without the ‘pause.’ “

The Energy of the 28 March 2021 (11:48 am PDT) Full Moon in 9 Libra is Complex and Tightly Integrated (another illustration that 5D is too Complex to Intellectualize; rather it must be Intuited), and quite Benign. The Saturn T-Square is Self-Resolving (a T-Square and a Finger of the Goddess pointing to the same planet, together called a Diamond Star), and all of the other red lines (Potential sources of Tension) play together in a Grand Cross (four planets more or less equally spaced around the Zodiac), where the Tensions basically Complement one another…

One Skill that is required in order to Live in Peace with either Diamond Stars or Grand Crosses, is Patience. Neither of these Configurations will routinely scatter Rose Petals on our Path. Rather, especially Grand Crosses, they will scatter little Thorns, too small to do Serious Damage, but in each of their moments, Irritating. These little Irritations will be Resolved by subsequent Thorns, if we don’t Freak Out at one of them and let it dump us into Negative Expectations. Chiron, between the Sun and Venus, is all about Negative Expectations, and their Healing. While we’re in Negative Expectations, the Irritations Compound rather than Complement one another.

Thor’s Sledge

Zach Bush, MD, a modern-day equivalent of René Descartes or Isaac Newman, is presenting a 30 March 2021 Zoom webinar on Death & Rebirth: A Look at the Second Birth of Humanity with Dr. Zach Bush, deep in the 31 March Ixion Station (Hidden Forbidden Genius, Acting Out).

When Hammers come up, I always think of Neal Cassady.

The Thor’s Hammer in astrology is composed of two Trioctile Angles (145 Degrees, or 4-1/2 Signs), one attached to each end of a Square Angle (90-Degrees, or three Signs). It’s what you get when a third planet is at the Far Midpoint of two planets that Square one another. Like the one below…

It’s a “Trioctile Yod,” with the ample Energy of the Square Focused through the third planet at the Far Midpoint.

Next time you’re on your front porch, have a look at your door-knocker, if you have one. Good chance it will be modeled after a Thor’s Hammer…

My friend Grandtrines says that “The Thor’s Hammer [in astrology] is associated with explosions, mining disasters, airplane crashes, and train wrecks,” and though I don’t keep score, I certainly can’t argue with it. In Economics, they often say that some Indicators have predicted 32 of the last 5 Recessions, and while I haven’t counted them, I suspect there are more Thor’s Hammers than there are explosions, mining disasters, airplane crashes, and train wrecks. Thor’s Hammers may often be Present in train wrecks, but how often are train wrecks Present under Thor’s Hammers?

The Linear Intellect’s 3D Reality is Separate from us, outside of us, outside of our Ego, and largely inanimate. Unless we get Slug-Slimed, the Boundary between Us and Reality is well-defined, solid, and perhaps even impenetrable. We may have good Control over a small part of Reality, but for the most part, It impacts Us more than the other way around, and we’re often the Victim of our Reality. Other than avoiding trains, how can we gain Healthy Control over train wrecks? Even if we could carefully Avoid them, what’s to prevent that train on the tracks we didn’t even know were there, behind the bushes next to the road we’re driving on, from jumping off the tracks, and delivering our Karma forthwith? Or our Trainma.

The Quantum Intuition’s 5D Reality is Living, Fractal, Holographic, and not Hierarchical. As Within, so Without. We are an integral part of It, and It is an Integral part of Us. The Boundary between Us and Living Reality is fuzzy, diaphanous, and in places missing entirely. We constantly Negotiate with Specific and Cosmic parts of 5D Reality. Not to Control, but to Make Known our Heart’s Truth about What We Want. Listening to Reality and Respecting Its Wishes, we and Reality Collaborate Empathetically, seeking Win-Win. If we catch ourself thinking about train wrecks, we Cancel-Neutralize-Upgrade! (Cancel the Thoughts, Neutralize the Vibrations already Created, and Upgrade the Thinker of the Thoughts, using that Expression of Intention) and move on to more Constructive Thoughts.

To the 3D Linear Intellect, Seeing Is Believing. To the 5D Quantum Intuition, Believing Is Seeing. Our Expectations are often Stronger than our Senses, and Stronger than Objective Reality, to the extent that Reality is Objective. Being Creatures of Habit, we Expect to See Tomorrow more or less the same thing we saw Yesterday. After thousands of Tomorrows (almost 1,100 every three years), our Trance is pretty Deep – if something Changes Tomorrow we may not even Perceive it. Expectation is a good example of partial 5D. Our Expectations run ahead of us, and Obscure what doesn’t match their filters by Lighting Up what we Expect. This is an Important part of the Critical role that Confidence plays in our Manifestations.

All but a few Eurasian Languages sprang from Sanskrit, and the concept of Thor’s Hammer came to Northern Europe with the Language – much of what happens in the Linear Intellect springs from the Language. The venerable Vedic deity Indra had roles similar to Thor’s, and also carried a sort of Magical Hammer, the Sanskrit Vajra or Tibetan Dorje, with the characteristics of Indestructibility like Diamond, and Irresistibility like Lightning. While the Vajra can be used as a weapon, in South Asian Traditions it symbolizes Firmness of Spirit and Spiritual Power – Knowing your Heart’s Truth and Manifesting it in your Life.

We use the Norwegian word Mjölnir to partially revoke the Ultimate-Weapon connotation that Thor’s Hammer has in common Western usage. And for interpretation, we use not train wrecks but Epiphanies. Lightning Illuminates and Energizes. Diamond symbolizes Clarity and Intention. Lasting Insight is the one thing that we Can Take With Us from one Lifetime to another, as our “Good Karma.” Every Thought is a Prayer, and every Prayer is Answered – we don’t notice this all the time because we aren’t always Conscious about it. In fact, it’s so Unconscious that our 3D Linear Cultural Reality would ridicule the idea.

We interpret the Mjölnir as Epiphany, and the Trioctiles from which it’s built as Insights. The Trioctile (three eighths of the Zodiac) combines the Eighth Harmonic (Returning to Balance) and the Third Harmonic (Love with Wisdom).

So we interpret the profound Mars (Action) Square Vesta (Unconscious Limitations) Trioctile Pluto (Transformation) as a tremendous Opportunity to become Conscious of our Unconscious Limitations, especially those rooted in Anger, and Transform them. The many thousands of grocery stores and massage spas where Violence has not broken out in March makes the Violence allegedly associated with Thor’s Hammer vanishingly Scarce. Yet our Expectations see what’s Scarce rather than what’s Abundant.

On the other hand, Epiphanies about Racism and assault weapons that Change our Unconscious Expectations and which we can carry with us into other Lifetimes, could make a meaningful contribution toward World Peace. Energy follows Intention, and Manifestation follows Energy. Should we Choose to invest our Precious and Scarce Intentions into trainwrecks, or into Peace?

Mars on the Loose

Reader Olav points out that…

• Mars (Action) has crossed the Tropic of Cancer heading North, moving Out of Bounds on 21 March 2021 (4:45 am PST). The Moon, rising about two hours before Mars, was also “OOB” North as Mars joined it out there. If your Instincts are Irrepressible, that’s a Good Thing. If you aren’t used to it, you may be heavy-handed at first; Let It Be, as you’ll develop finesse only through Practice.

• Mars returns In Bounds on 24 May (3:23 pm PST), while Mercury is OOB (also North). Mercury may Allow us to Feel the Difference between a Mobilized Mars (OOB) and a Domesticated Mars (In Bounds). If we can Identify and Remember this Difference, we may be Able to Learn to Temper our Outer Self when we’re Overstressed (which could Allow us to Assert Ourself Convincingly rather than Angrily), and Gently Amplify our Deep Self when we need to Set an otherwise difficult Boundary. If you’re PIAVAing this, remember your adverbs – Pray to Do it Effectively and Easily.

• Standing Still (in the N-S Dimension) as it turns Southward again on 22 April (3:05 pm PST) at 24:54 Degrees North in 30 Gemini, and perhaps attempting to scratch the itch in its Jezero Crater, Mars Opposes (Argues With) Ixion (Our Forbidden Genius, on its own OOB Steroids) and as it does it also Quincunxes (Is Curios About) an also-Stationary (in the E-W Dimension) Pluto (Transformation). This may be pretty Explosive, as our Long-Repressed Genius rips off the door of its Cage. Some heavy-duty Truth-Telling is in order. Listen through the Anger, and rephrase it back to the Angry person (“Do you mean you Feel ____ about that?), and don’t Argue with them. If you’re the Angry one, Listen especially to Yourself, and don’t Discount what you’re hearing because you’re Angry – you could be Discovering your Hidden Forbidden Genius. Your Genius may seem Juvenile at first because Long Repression means Arrested Development, but they’ll Grow quickly once we Partner with them. Our Hidden Genius is essential to 5D.

• Mercury is OOB from 6-29 May and from 5-25 Gemini. As it’s making its U-turn and Standing Still at Declination 25:15 North and Longitude 19:02 Gemini on 17 May (1:07 pm PST), the Moon is just returning In Bounds, and Octile (Returning to Balance) to Mercury (Learning about your own Instincts), while the Moon is 19 Degrees from still-Out of Bounds Mars. Nineteen Degrees is a bit of a Magical Angle, as it’s the Square Root of 360, and the 19th Harmonic, which is symbolized by the Sun and the Life Force Acting through Collaborative Partnership that Unifies Male Energy (Dynamism or Doing) and Female Energy (Magnetism or PIAVAing) in Playful Creativity – 5D again.

Meanwhile, in its continuing travels from West to East,* in Longitude Mars while Out of Bounds spans 10:11 Gemini to 19:11 Cancer, with the North-South Station occurring when Mars is at 29:40 Gemini. *When we stand in the back yard and look up, the planets and Stars move from East to West, but that’s because the surface of the Earth is moving under us toward the East as our Mother Planet Rotates. If we take a snapshot of the Sky every night at the same time, we can see all of the Heavenly People making their Pilgrimage to the East (those who aren’t moving Retrograde).

As a tribute to the women in the Mars program, NASA has added a lovely satin skirt to its experimental Mars helicopter “Ingenuity,” and to honor the men, they used golf clubs for its feet – a good example of Collaborative Partnership that Unifies Male and Female Energies in Playful Creativity.

We aren’t done yet, but we’re out of time for tonight. Olav also asked about the “ongoing square/opposition of Nessus/Orcus and Dejaneira (and Nemesis also),” and this asteroid Dejaneira or Dejanira sounds worth exploring, and hopefully debunking its Dark reputation.

And, speaking of debunking dark repute, reader Grandtrines has also written to ask, “What about the Thor’s Hammer / God’s Fist?” in the Aries Equinox chart? That’s our Mjölnir, and that’ll be fun.

Meanwhile, we’re rapidly sliding into the 31 March (8:07 pm PST) Station of Out of Bounds Ixion in 2 Capricorn. A Preview of the 22 April event we described above perhaps.

Boundaries and Confusion 2

Brenda Hoffman’s Channeling for today certainly fits right in with what we’ve been saying…

https://lifetapestrycreations.wordpress.com/2021/03/22/new-you-isnt-who-you-expected/

“You are beginning to discover new you in new formats. Perhaps such will be as simple as changing your clothing or as dramatic as moving to a new country. Your internal push is to change your direction, your 3D knowingness in thousands of ways. Perhaps it is the tone of your voice or what you will accept. It does not matter. All that matters is you are beginning to surprise yourself daily. 

“Such actions or thoughts do not seem as large as they are for some of you, for you have adjusted to aspects of new you in ways you have not yet acknowledged. Something you could not imagine thinking or doing even weeks ago is now part of your being. And so it will continue until new you is exposed to you.

“Perhaps that last sentence seems far-fetched, for how could you expose yourself to yourself? We will answer in another riddle, for how could you not? Perhaps you have pretended to yourself that new you would be similar to completing schooling, marriage, or having a child: all dramatic but expected 3D shifts with millions of others completing the same or similar steps.

“Your new you adjustments will be or are far different. You will find a need to do something you do not believe you are prepared for or interested in. Entering these new you aspects with great trepidation only to discover doing so fills a niche you did not realize needed filling. As if your glass was unknowingly half empty. 

“And as you try to be interested in that which was exciting prior to the past few months, you will feel nothing. So your new world is one of exploration, and your 3D world has become boring. Both of which are frightening.

“For the first time since you entered the earth eons ago, new is truly new. Most of you will be exploring pieces of your being and earth you never explored in any other earth life.

“Of course, many of you are wondering exactly what we, of the Universes, are alluding to, and we can only smile. The pieces you explore cannot be defined by us or anyone but you. Perhaps you will suddenly wish to time travel, go within, or study aspects of interdimensional life. 

“Some of you might start this exploration simply with a change within your home. Or you might know what others are thinking before they speak. You might wish to be alone so you can explore other dimensions or frequencies. Or you might join a human/Universal group doing all of the above or something completely different.

“Whatever interests you or brings you joy is the piece you need to explore to determine your next step or action. 

Your new pieces or actions may not seem that dramatic at first, just a bit outside your 3D you. But as the pieces fit into place, you will understand why you wanted to do this and then this. New you is a culmination of activities, just as was true for 3D you in a different format.

“In 3D, you knew which actions would continue the inner action chart you created for yourself. Of course, not all actions ended as you anticipated, but enough did so that you felt you were in control of your life in the 3D framework you created for yourself.

“New you has no idea where your interests will lead, for those actions remain nebulous to you, earth observers, and even those of us of the Universes. For you are playing with new building blocks that can be square, round, a cylinder, star-shaped, or whatever you need. 

“Nothing is as it seemed because you parted the veils that separate 3D solids from the Universal nebulous. Such a statement probably seems unlikely given that you continue your daily routine with little or no change – at least in your mind.

“Your truth is far different. Do you remember the day you shifted from toddler to school child or teen-ager to working adult? Did not those phases seemingly happen to you and most in your age range? So it is now on a different level. You will increase your Universal skills and interests, not by a dramatic chant or a wish to do so; it will just happen. And you will know such has happened by experiencing the result.

“There will not be fireworks or any indication that you are different. You just are or will be. The indicators that such are so are your interests and actions. 

“Some of you are frightened, thinking that this new you is somehow outside the 3D you that you know “so well,” as if you are being invaded by the space creatures displayed in your movies. That we are preparing you for some monster invasion. 

“There is no outside force. There is merely the new you that you created over eons of earth and Universal life you now dare and need to share with others. You are a new being with new actions and interests. Some of which may feel foreign or wrong until you allow yourself to flow with the new.

“It is a given that you will discover new skills and interests. We, of the Universes, have no idea what those new skills will be. Throughout the eons, your role was to hone certain skills for this lifetime so that this new earth rebuild would be of love instead of fear.

“As each of you finds and accepts your rebuild puzzle pieces, the force of love will outweigh any fear you or others might have.

“This earth rebuild is a bit like building a skyscraper. Even though you might have seen the blueprints, you have no idea how the huge hole in the earth could ever be the beginnings of a beautiful building. When you return to the site a few months later to observe the building’s skeleton, you again question the wisdom of those who thought the building possible.

“So it is for you now. You are the architect/contractor of your puzzle piece. The piece that is required now. Not next year or when you feel like it – any more than a building can continue if the foundation is not poured until the cement contractor feels like doing so. This is an en masse project of forerunners and those waves immediately following.

“Even though you are not tasked with the actual rebuild of the earth, you forerunners are the artists who will select the colors and dimensions of the build. You provided the concept so those following can complete it. You will then provide this rebuild’s artistic sense to determine if it is beautiful, fun, or not quite right.

“Your puzzle piece is more artistic than structural.

“Even though you may feel as if you have no artistic skills, you will discover your new earth puzzle piece by following your interests and joys no matter how unusual they might seem to you or others.

“Follow your joy, and everything will fall into place. Try to force your joys, and you will merely move further from your true self, your new earth role.”

Moon Springing OutaBounds

The Spring Equinox chart looks very Benign – a Fire Grand Trine (Dumb-Luck Blessings) among…

• Sun (Essence) entering Aries (Intuitive New Adventures),
• Asteroid Klotho (New Beginnings) on the Cusp of Sagittarius (Letting Go of What’s Obsolete), and
• Dwarf planet Varuna (The Life Force) on the Cusp of Leo (Self-Confidence)

…while…

• Dwarf planets Ixion (Our Forbidden Genius) on the Cusp of Capricorn (Pragmatism) and
• Sedna (Converting Fear to Power) at the end of Taurus (Manifested Form)

…sit at the Midpoints, making an Almost-Grand Sextile (Great Ease with Any Project After We Take the First Step).

That leaves a Vacancy (We have to supply the Missing Energy ourself to make it work) at the Cusp of Libra (Meeting Other). However, asteroid Narcissus is there – handy, since it’s their time to Bloom. The Suggestion is that we should Meet Other with Full Self-Assurance and Nothing to Hide for the next three months. If Other isn’t Receptive to your Confident Vulnerability, it’ll be Their Loss, not yours. It’ll just tell you not to Waste Your Time, as there are an Infinite number of Others in the Universe, and most of them are more Open.

If your Feelings are Hurt by their Rejection, it’s Your Own Pre-Existing Abandonment, and it’s up to you to Own It. Have a good hard look at How it Feels, so you Recognize it whenever it arises, and then be very Loving with Yourself there. Abandonment doesn’t happen in the Present Moment, it’s Karmic, and it’s yours. Rejection might occur in the Now, but so what, that happens frequently and it’s not a Big Deal. When it becomes a Big Deal, it’s because of Contamination from Your Own Karmic Abandonment. Then, Poor-Sweetheart yourself and move on.

We all have varying degrees of Karmic Abandonment and Karmic Suffocation (when, rather than Rejection, we Feel the Need to Reject Other), usually one stronger than the other in our Personality, though we all have both. If your Emotions get involved when you are Criticized or Not Seen, that’s you, not them. When you Feel the Need to Criticize somebody, it’s not about them, it’s about you. Of course the general rule is, If you want to Criticize someone, first walk a mile in their Shoes – that way, when you do Criticize them, you’ll be a mile away and you’ll have their Shoes. Sounds right out of the Narcissus playbook, doesn’t it!

Meanwhile, the Moon…

• Went Out of Bounds (Expect to be more Emotional – and watch how your Intellectual Rationalizations for your own Karmic Limits arise so Effortlessly – that is, how Easy it is to Blame Other) at 7:06 am PDT 20 March 2021 in 19 Gemini, on asteroid Psyche (Jealousy, Goddess of the Soul).
• It reaches its peak Outaboundedness and Stands Still to turn around at 1:35 am PDT 22 March at 26 Degrees North in 11 Cancer on asteroid Vesta (Unconscious Limiting Beliefs).
• It returns In Bounds at 6:18 pm PDT 23 March at 2 Leo on Varuna (Vitality).

It’s Intriguing that, with Narcissus filling the Solar Vacancy, the Moon is Stationary while Merged with (Conjunct) Vesta, but only a Degree from asteroid Aphrodite (Love, Beauty, Passion, Vanity), as it was Aphrodite’s Jealousy that intended to Punish Psyche, who was already dealing with the Jealousy of her sisters. So, in the context of our Vanity, the Out of Bounds (Lit Up) Moon (our Instincts and our Willingness to Manifest our Heart’s Desires) moves from Psyche to Vesta-Aphrodite – Reviewing the status of our Unconscious Self-Love – and then on to Varuna.

The Teaching is that a, if not the, cause of Physical and Emotional Dis-Ease (Varuna) is our Belief that we aren’t Lovable as we Are, so we have to Compete to Obtain Love. Yet Love is about Partnership and Collaboration, the Opposite of Competition.

And if we’re talking about Jealousy, Vanity, and Competition, where is Eris? Aphrodite was one of the three Contestants for Eris’s Golden Apple for the Fairest of them All. We talked about the Waning Square from Pluto to Eris in the previous post. If we’re investing in preparation for 5D, Teachings about Unconscious Competition will be one of our most Valuable Gifts.

Boundaries and Confusion 1

As regular readers know, we focus mostly on planetary Stations – when planets Stand Still in the Sky as they’re about to go Retrograde or back into Direct travel again. We do this because we’ve observed over many decades that this is when planets have their strongest influence on our Lives. Consequently, it’s a relatively straightforward way of cutting through the immense Complexity of planetary interactions and their impact. And because of this, it’s an excellent way to Learn what each planet is about.

But Stations are by no means the only way that the planets impact us, so sometimes we need to branch out. Like this week, for instance. Our Station calendar is blank. Yet we’ve been hearing from a number of people about bigtime Boundary problems, and encountering same ourself. So we scanned the Ephemerides for wayward Mergers (Conjunctions) and Challenges (T-Squares), and checked last weekend’s New Moon chart, which we hadn’t till now examined.

Since New and Full Moon charts impact the following several weeks, the 13 March 2021 New Moon was a prime suspect. What did we find there? The New Moon itself was Merged with The Truth of the Heart (asteroid Aletheia), and Challenged by a Debate (Opposition) between Our Intuitive Knowledge of Our Limitless Potential, and our Resistance to It (dwarf planets Asbolus and Chaos Dancing together) and Growth in Consciousness, or our Resistance to It (asteroid Juno). Well yes, that could stir up all manner of Discomfort for the Ego’s primary task of Supporting the Status Quo, and loads of Confusion as well.

An Aletheia New Moon would give us a Compulsion to Let Our True Feelings Out, but how that looks depends on our Relationship to our True Feelings – are they Deeply Repressed? Difficult for us to Access? Available but only in Private? Available only to a few Close Friends? Known but Regarded as Shameful or Dangerous or Frightening? Openly Accepted? Obvious from the Anthem on our hat? If our True Feelings have never been Accepted, it’ll certainly Trigger our Abandonment. That’s never Fun.

Whatever Adventures are upon us this fortnight, they’re certainly going to be Teaching us a great deal about our True Feelings and Deep Values. If there are actual or imagined gaps between our current or historical Behaviors and our Deep Values, that’s likely to Manifest as Self-Judgment (which is Valid only as a “Fourth Step”) or as Self-Hate (which is never Constructive). If our True Feelings are Hidden from ourself, this is likely to result in Confusion and possibly Despair, as our Life would Feel Out of Control.

The T-Square would seem to have a Clear Spiritual Purpose, to increase our familiarity with our Heart’s Truth and Values (those which are not up for Debate), Open our Intuition (specifically, not our Intellect) to our Unlimited Potential, and accordingly provide a map for the Growth in Consciousness that we need in order to Support an Expanded and Integrated Future for ourself in 5D. If either our Heart’s Truth or our Unlimited Potential frightens us, then we could easily Feel this as a bigger Leap than we’re prepared to take.

Boundary issues could easily arise as we Project onto others whatever parts of this we aren’t prepared to Accept in ourself, and as Others Project onto us what they don’t Accept in themselves.

If we look to see what might fill that yawning Vacancy opposite the New Moon, we find asteroids Pandora (Hope) and Sphinx (Inscrutability). I think that means that there isn’t much we can Do about this, it’s about Being, or PIAVAing.

The Waning Square from Pluto to dwarf planet Eris also indicates that Profound New Self-Knowledge is Forcing it’s way into our Consciousness, and plotting for us as Individuals and Species a potential path through the Decline of the Pluto-Eris Cycle that began in December 1756 and 19 Sagittarius, “Pelicans menaced by the behavior and refuse of men seek safer areas for bringing up their young: The need for people concerned with the future to discover a new way of living and more wholesome surroundings.”

1756. The Declaration of Independence, in what would become the US, was still twenty years in the future. Apparently not taking their experience in the US to heart, it took the British another 62 years to defeat the Maratha Empire and Colonize India. Like the US, they Believed that they were “endowed by their Creator with unalienable Rights to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of” Profit at the expense of Others.

Captain Cook’s sail-by “Conquest” of Australia was still 14 years hence, and it was 32 years before Sydney became a Penal Colony. European nationalities (most weren’t nations yet) were squabbling as usual, this time in the “Seven Years War” (beats the “Hundred Years War”!), among themselves and with the Russian and the declining but by no means disarmed Ottoman Empire. There was still a remnant “Holy Roman Empire” – in Austria.

The Pluto-Eris Cycle is about how a Culture Suppresses inconvenient Truths, which always return to bite them in the butt, and how it eventually Resurrects these Truths. What is Suppressed, Lives in the Unconscious, and controls our Life from there, just outside of our Awareness, until it is Promoted or Restored into Consciousness. At least one signer of the US Declaration of Independence freed his slave first so he could sign in good faith.

This is the Waning Square, meaning that it’s time for us to Let Go of however we’ve been interpreting the Cycle. Even if we aren’t campaigning to Make America Grovel Again, most of us are still Celebrating our Entitlement. But this has been a long Cycle, begun in the Era of Ben Franklin and Frederick the Great. Can we possibly erase from our Mental and Emotional and Physical Bodies eight generations of Cultural Programming? If you’re feeling like you have no idea who you are or what you’re doing, welcome to the club!

Dropping Self-Sabotage

As we’ve said many times, Karma died in 2012, when Linear Time became Obsolete. But our Karma doesn’t cling to us, we cling to it, because like Dinner and Dessert, it’s what we’re accustomed to. Without it there’s a Big (w)Hole to fill – disconcerting at best, often crazy-making. It’s very Addictive, very difficult to break the habit without Support and Commitment.

Like Alan Watts pointed out, it’s harder to break our Good Karma than it is to break our Bad Karma. That should be fairly obvious – Bad Karma often involves Punishment on one level or another, and Good Karma gets constant positive social Reinforcement, so there’s Motivation for the Bad, quite the Opposite for the Good. Without Motivation, from whence will the Commitment arise? Yet if we want to get to Yintegrity and 5D, we need to Break our Good Karma as well.

Remember that all Karmic Patterns are Profound Skills – simply because we’ve had so much Practice and so many Repetitions with them, in so many different situations. Karma isn’t Good or Bad on the surface, it’s Undesirable because we have no Choice about when to use the Skill – it Operates beneath the level of our Consciousness, whether or not it’s Appropriate and Effective for what we want to Accomplish. In fact, once we break free of the Unconscious Compulsion, we need these Skills, used Intentionally, to Accomplish our Life Mission.

We Believe that Karma is created when we make an Oath or Vow or Promise, or even a Decision, that has Life-or-Death or other serious consequences. Conscious of these consequences, we work hard to forget that we made the Choice, instead Reframing it as Just The Way Things Are. If we can make it a Fact of Life, we’re less likely to Violate it. Through Repetition, we convince ourself that it really is The Way Things Are, and that ends up as an Unconscious – Karmic – Belief in subsequent Lifetimes.

All Karma is Personal. Sure, there are Cultural Patterns and Prescriptions that Act Out like Karma. Like the almost-Universal Practice of scapegoating other Cultures. Once in a while, a Cultural Karmic Pattern can shift on its own. But does that actually Change the World, when all of the folks who Practice it are still Addicted to it? Not until at least a hundred of the “Monkeys,” and probably a lot more, who Practice it have brought it into Consciousness and converted it to a Purposive Skill. Or until (seven?) previous generations move on to their next Adventures.

When asteroid Karma is Lit Up, our Karma is usually in our face. The South Node is similar but different. It includes our Held Emotions, the ones we’d rather Die than Feel. Much Cultural Karma is the result of Cultural or Racial Trauma. We can think of the South Node as Individual or Collective PTSD. The South Node harbors Behaviors that Got Us Dead in other Lifetimes. Those Behaviors were probably Karmic – if they weren’t, we might have Chosen other Skills instead.

We still need those Skills, and there may be a bundle of other Skills that we collected or emphasized in that Lifetime, that we Repressed along with the one(s) that Got Us Dead. This collection of Skills, used Intentionally, is particularly Critical to Accomplishing our Life Mission (the North Node).

Dwarf planet Orcus is in charge of Punishing Oath-Breakers, which would include Karma-Changers. As a fearsome Beast, Orcus helped Enforce our Oaths during Karma-gestating Lifetimes, and that Memory of Terror that’s attached to the Karma may be added to our Fear of what might happen to us if we skip Dinner and Dessert. Asteroid Vesta represents our Unconscious Limiting Beliefs, which are highly correlated with our Karma.

Meanwhile, is our Fate different from our Karma? In many ways, not so much. And there are four asteroids that are named after the Greek Goddesses who were in charge of our Fate. Greek Drama (or at least, our Cultural Projections into Greek Drama) was particularly adept at dramatizing Fate. While it’s easy to view Greek Drama as implying that The Devil Made Me Do It, we can also view it as Information about What We Need to Bring into Consciousness so that we can make Choices that save us from being Victims of our own Fate.

Asteroid Moira is in charge of the whole Process of Unconscious Fate and Conscious Choice. Asteroid Klotho “cuts the cloth” (that’s where our word “cloth” comes from) on which the Tapestry of our Fate is woven. Asteroid Lachesis “measures the cloth,” or determines the Duration of a particular Karmic “Gift.” And Asteroid Atropos is in charge of Endings – literally Death, but we generalize to include the Death of an individual thread of Karma, which is appropriate because the Termination of any significant Karmic Pattern usually requires an Ego Death.

Our Held Emotions are the poster child for this, as they are the Emotions which We would rather Die than Feel. But here we don’t interpret that as We would rather Die than Feel, we interpret it as We would rather Die than Feel – that is, an Ego Death, the equivalent of a Rebirth without an intervening Physical Death.

This has been a significant week from the Perspective of Fate and Karma, as asteroid Atropos (Endings) was very Strong (Stationary) on 10 March 2021 (2:04 pm PST in 20 Cancer), asteroid Lachesis (Karmic Duration) was very Strong (Stationary) on 13 March (7:12 am PST in 18 Scorpio), and asteroid Vesta (Unconscious Limiting Beliefs) crossed dwarf planet Orcus (Oath-Making and -Breaking) on 13 March (2:18 pm PST in 13 Virgo).

In addition (Busy, Busy, Busy), the Lachesis Station, supercharged because it’s Out of Bounds, Complicates (T-Squares) an Argument (Opposition) between asteroid Karma and an Expanded asteroid Moira (Conjunct Jupiter). “Wait! Are you saying that I can Change my Fate? ” Lachesis Measured the Duration of a thread of our Fate, but there’s nothing to prevent us from cheating Fate by bringing that thread into Consciousness Early.

The Vesta-Orcus Merger (Conjunction) makes a major Challenge to (T-Squares) the North Node and the Brightly Lit Up South Node (Conjunct the Great Attractor, an unknown Massive Object or Field pulling the whole Milky Way toward the Midpoint of Sagittarius). “Wait! Are you saying that it was ‘my’ Choices that ultimately created my Limitations? Can I unmake those Choices?“

And the Atropos Station not only gets very Tied Up in issues around Trust (Conjunct Out-of-Bounds asteroid Eurydike), but also issues around Self-Love and Self-Authority (Opposite asteroid Sappho and dwarf planet Hylonome). “Wait! Can I really Trust that Fear of Emptiness is the only thing that inhibits my Freedom, not Dragons? That’s not what my mother and the preacherman told me!“

In addition to Hylonome (Self-Sovereignty and Codependence), Lilith (ditto) is also Activated (Opposing the Lachesis Station and also T-Squaring the Jupiter-Moira to Karma Opposition) – remember what we said earlier about Good Karma and Yintegrity?

Dwarf planet Nessus (Abuse and Privilege) is also involved, as it Opposes Vesta-Orcus and also T-Squares the Nodes, including the South Node that’s glowing like Rudolph’s nose, meaning that it may be a particularly fortuitous time to Let Go of Abuse Karma. And a fortuitous time to jettison Privilege Karma.

That leaves out asteroid Klotho. Are we to endure the Emptiness without the Rebirth of a new Ego? Well, it’s a sleeper, but it’s there. It’s Merged with (Conjunct) dwarf planet Haumea (also symbolizing Rebirth), and at the focus of a Mjölner (Epiphanies) to the Square between Nessus and the North Node. If you look close in the chart below, and your monitor or printer is good enough at color separation, you may be able to distinguish the orange Mjölner lines, pointing to Klotho-Haumea, from the many red (Square and Opposition) lines.

Insights that shift Energies from a Belief that “It’s Just The Way It Is” to “Omigod! I can Change that too?!? ” can count double as Karma-Changers, if they’re followed up by the ongoing Work of substituting Constructive Thoughts and Behaviors for their Karmic forbears. Ultimately, it “Reps” – Repetitions – that shift Self-Sabotaging Karmic Patterns to Habits that we want to cultivate.

For instance, I read this earlier this week…

“Anthony Trewavas described plants as operating: ‘There is no unique separate response to each signal in this complex of informational inflows but merely a response issued from an integration of all environmental and internal information.’ In other words, the organism takes in all the incoming data simultaneously as it occurs and integrates it as one coherent whole, then crafts a response… The amount of incoming data includes trillions upon trillions of bits; when you are talking about Gaia the numbers are close enough to infinity as to make no difference. There is no way that linear processes could be used to generate the increasingly complex innovations on form and behavior that would stabilize homeodynamis. Top-down control here just doesn’t work.” –Stephen Harrod Buhner, Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Realm, pp.152-3.

Within a few hours I read correlated ideas in three other books on different subjects (by Gay Hendricks, Timothy Hass, and Marko Pogačnik). The result was that I Realized that I’ve been relying too much on Intellect to move toward an important Manifestation that I’m working on, when I need to shift even more than I already am to Intuition and PIAVAs. I Realized that I had been Doubting my next interim Target because I couldn’t imagine what Mechanism would get me there.

Mechanisms are Logical, Known Steps. We can’t Manifest Territory beyond our Known World using Known or Logical Steps. If we could, we’d have done so long ago. We can’t Reach Beyond our Grasp with Dynamic Processes, only with Magnetic Processes.

We aren’t without Blessings to make this process Easier…

Vesta-Orcus and the two Fatefull Stations are all two Signs apart, and they’re joined by three other Sextiles to create a Grand Sextile in Water and Earth – the PIAVA Signs.

There are eight Unxes (two planets one Sign apart, indicated by the short green lines), including at least one Unx for each of the three Stars of this show. Atropos (Endings) gets two such Pattern-Breaking Gifts, one to asteroid Karma itself, and one to the North Node (MIssion) and dwarf planet Asbolus (Intuition, which we’re already Summoning). Asteroid Karma also Unxes Vesta-Orcus.

These three Unxes alone are enough to banish whatever Self-Sabotage you’ve been working on. If you still Feel Stuck on those, check to see if any of them Let Go while you weren’t looking. Try some Easy but Meaningful PIAVAs to see if they work now – that should Ease any Discouragement you have over the others.

The Lachesis-Station Unxes the South Node and Great Attractor, suggesting to me that your Held Emotions may be ready to be Eased into your stable of Permitted Emotions. Remember this fellow from Yellow Submarine? If you Ask him, he can just vacuum them up. So much for unknown Mechanisms.

Busy Week

It’s been a busy week, but unfortunately Life intervened, and I haven’t had time to do the play-by-play, so we’ll have to play Catch-Up. We strive to help youalls see the correlations between what the planets are up to and what your Inner and Outer Circumstances are up to, though, and that’s easier in retrospect anyway, so Catch-Up is my middle name. If you can come to discern how the correlations operate in your own Life, that’ll serve you far better than someone else’s predictions ever would. Someone else’s predictions are either based on some ossified textbook, or on their own Lived Experience, which may be far removed from your own.

The Biggest astroevent here is the 7 March 2021 (8:30 pm PST) Exaggeration (Station) of the Energy of Unlimited Potential (dwarf planet Chaos), in 27 Gemini. The planet Chaos doesn’t stand for Disorder, it stands for What came before Zeus put everything in Order. That is, the Matriarchy. Gemini is the quintessence of Change, and gosh, it does seem like there’s an almost Unlimited amount of Change going on. Chaos will bring Unlimited Potential to Compassion (Cancer) starting next summer (July 2022). Wouldn’t it be Wonderful if we could just Let These Things, like Unlimited Compassion, Happen. Usually, what most Evident instead is everyone’s Resistance. I suppose we could see “America’s Rescue Plan” as Resistance as well, since it’s aimed at restoring what used to be Normal. On the other hand, we could see it as a boon to help get things Changed in our individual and institutional Lives, since the money comes without strings.

One way to Feel the Energy of dwarf planet Chaos, might be to Ask yourself, “What have I been Craving?” Not Addictions, but States of Mind or Emotion or Circumstances, or Manifestation Goals. Then, “Why haven’t I been Giving that to myself?” What? It’s not yours to Give? Who’s is it then? I thought this was a Free Will Planet! Giving yourself Permission to Receive is fundamental to any Manifestation. You may have well rationalized answers to both of the first two questions (Craving and not-Giving). If you can get a handle on why you’ve been depriving yourself, you may be able to Grok what that part of you Wants, rather than what they Don’t Want. You may be able to find a way to score what your Craver Wants and what your Depriver Wants. You could even Dream Up a way that each of them could Help the Other Get What They Want. But the first step is taking the Negative away from your Depriver. Maybe start by renaming them DeepRiver instead of Depriver.

And of course any progress toward Getting What Any Part of You Wants, will Trigger your Upper Limits. I can’t think of a better source than Gay Hendricks’s The Big Leap for dealing with those…

Then there’s the Out-of-Bounds Moon. This is a 22-year Cycle, eleven years In Bounds then eleven years when it goes Out of Bounds for a few days every two weeks. It’s subtle, but our Emotions are stronger when the Moon is Out of Bounds. It crossed the Tropic of Capricorn heading Southeast on 6 March at 12:36 am PST in 20 Sagittarius, Stood Still at 25:10 South Declination on 7 March at 12:40 pm PST in 11 Capricorn, and will cross the Tropic heading Northeast on 9 March at 1:36 am PST in 2 Aquarius. I know, the Moon always goes from East to West, doesn’t it. Well, not quite. You have to take a snapshot every night at Midnight to see it, but the Moon actually moves Eastward about 13 Degrees a day, while the Earth below it spins from West to East. So when we see the Moon heading West, it’s actually us heading East – at about a thousand miles per hour! Feel that 1,000 mph Breeze? Now you know why some people have decided to Trust their Senses and go back to the Flat Earth theory.

Speaking of Trust, asteroid Eurydike (which symbolizes Trust) Stood Still on 5 March (3am PST), and dwarf planet Asbolus (symbolizing our Intuitions) Stood Still on 4 March (8:15 am PST), so you may have Noticed that you weren’t Trusting your Intuitions, or Congratulating yourself because you were Trusting your Intuition! There’s a good chance we were Thinking or Dreaming about how We coulda beena Contenda! – Trusting or Mistrusting our Intuitions about our Unlimited Potential. On this Flat Earth, All There Is Is Now. That means everything that has appeared to have happened up till this Moment, was all Nothing except a Foundation for this Moment. Whether we Enjoyed Success or Learned (Consciously or Unconsciously) from Failure, it was all Perfect Preparation. Each Moment is a Fulcrum, where we can spin the wheel and Shift the Direction of our Trajectory. There’s Unlimited Potential in every Direction – which Direction will we Choose?

And finally, asteroid Pallas, which symbolizes Boundaries, left Aquarius and entered Pisces on 7 March (1pm PST). In Aquarius we were likely Overthinking our Boundaries, trying to make them fit some theory of how we thought they Should be. In Pisces, we’ll probably take them Overboard on the Emotional side, too easily Forgiving those who Transgress but with whom we have an Emotional Attachment, and being Overcasual about our Boundaries with people we aren’t Emotionally Attached to. In general, it will probably be Difficult to maintain Professional Boundaries. We can probably expect more #MeToo fireworks over the next eleven months, till Pallas enters Aries in mid-February 2022. Pallas took only three months to cross Aquarius, but it turns Retrograde in Pisces and spends eleven months there.

A ten-Degree span is called a Decanate, and each Sign holds three of them. The first third of Pisces is the Pisces Decanate of Pisces, the second third the Cancer Decanate, and the third the Scorpio Decanate. Pisces itself is about Emotional Wandering (Mutable Water). Since Emotions can be Compelling, what we Feel in a given Moment may be all we Feel. Even as we can be totally Absorbed by a different Emotion a few minutes later. Totally Clear to us, totally Confusing to Observers with a time horizon longer than a few minutes. Which is Good. That’s how Emotions work. It’s only the Intellect degrading them that would have it be otherwise.

The Emotional Wandering phase (Pisces Decanate) spans the rest of March and most of November (7 Mar-8 Apr, 22 Oct-26 Nov 2021). In the Cancer Decanate our Boundaries are likely to become more Empathetic and Compassionate. That’s April till mid-May, October, and December till mid-January (9 Apr-15 May, 6 Sep-21 Oct, 27 Nov-13 Jan 2022). The Scorpio Decanate in mid-May through August and mid-January through mid-February 2022 (16 May-5 Sep and 13 Jan-13 Feb) will likely be dedicated to Investigation and Judgment. Scorpio’s Relentless about seeking Truth, Emotional Truth that is. If you inadvertently Hurt someone’s Feelings while Pallas is in the Scorpio Decanate of Pisces, you may have a hard time convincing them it wasn’t Intentional. The Emotional Truth is that they’re Hurt, and that’s the Fact that matters.

The upcoming week is about Letting Go of Karma, as asteroid Atropos Stands Still on 10 March, and asteroid Lachesis Stations on 13 March. Atropos is about chunks of Karma that reach their Expiry Date on their own. Since Karma is what we’re Habituated to, though, that doesn’t mean that they Leave. Because it’s almost All That We Know, Letting Go can be difficult, as it leaves us staring into the Abyss of the Unknown. Bad Karma may Feel better than No Karma At All. Lachesis on the other hand, gives us an Opportunity to Let Go of a chunk that we’re sick of but that’s still Alive. Karma does not Hold us, We Hold Karma, so it’s Easy to Let Go of it. Except that the resulting Void can feel very much like “Something’s Wrong.” Watch for that Feeling – it means you’re on the right track.
