Fire, Earth & Air 3

Dunno about you, but my PIAVAs for Health and Healing seem to be working!  I’m very glad to have the previous post as a Guide, so I can Recognize the “Healing Crises” and Tap out the Fear before it locks itself into my Cells.  Whether youalls get anything out of these posts or not, they’re often tremendously useful for me!

My initial scan of the second Diamond Star in the 2 November (3pm PDT) Varuna-Station chart, tells me that it’s a Self-Resolving Challenge about how the Intellect isn’t the right tool for Growing our Consciousness.  But as anyone who’s read more than two of these posts knows, that’s a bias of mine from the beginning.  So if that’s all that there is in the Configuration, I won’t be Learning anything from it.  Let’s see if I can Open Up to new Growth like I have from the Uranus Diamond Star…

This second Diamond Star focuses on “OR10,” our shortcut name for the unnamed dwarf planet and Plutoid “2007 OR10” or “225088” – these are identifying conventions used for Minor Planets before they are named. 

I associate OR10 with Intrusive Memories.  It’s been traveling closely with Nessus (Abuse and Privilege), so it’s been a major factor in the #MeToo movement.  These two were within three Degrees off and on between March 2010 and February 2018.  We’re no longer in that phase, but it was recent enough that Abuse Memories may still Intrude, or that Intruding Memories might seem Abusive. 

For instance, today I happened to think about a former colleague who was mildly politically Abusive by claiming that the work of a committee we were both on was “his” work rather than the committee’s.  That was many decades ago, and I don’t think about this event very often.  So is it somehow relevant to my Life today, or just a random interjection?

Hmmm.  Yesterday a friend was Angered by their misinterpretation of an overheard conversation that I had with a third person.  They assumed that what they heard meant that I was exercising Privilege in a way that was Abusive to them, which wasn’t at all the case.  Curious.  In general, Intrusive Memories needn’t be about Abuse.  They could be about Past Glories, for instance.  They probably Relate to the Present Moment somehow, though perhaps through a Funhouse Mirror, as Extrusions from the Unconscious often do.

This OR10 Challenge (T-Square) bestrides the Opposition (Duality) between Mentality (Mercury) and Timeline Duration (Lachesis).  The usual Duality we’d associate with Mentality and Timelines, is whether we’re a Victim of our Timelines, or Choose them ourself.  Or Recognize that we’ve (somehow) Chosen them ourself, if we Accept that Responsibility.

For instance, when my then-colleague stole credit for our committee’s work, it reinforced my Programming that People can’t be Trusted.  I was Victim to that Timeline.  I was thinking today about how much I might need to protect my house from Halloween “Tricks,” and deciding that the people I live among now seem more Community-oriented, and that I should let them prove to me that I need to Protect myself from them.

So while I didn’t make a hard and fast vow, and wasn’t thinking of it as a Timeline, I did today decide to End that Timeline about not Trusting People.  So the seemingly random Memory was probably an invitation to continue Mistrusting.  When I mentioned my Unbidden thought to a friend and explained a little context to them, their Response was “New Yorkers do that” (make Egoic claims), in a sense forgiving my ex-colleague for just Living out their own Programming.

While they’re not within our usual three Degrees of Sensitivity, Mercury is Merged with Jupiter/Expansion (4½ Degrees), and Lachesis is Merged with Juno/the Edges of Consciousness (4 Degrees).  These Connections certainly apply to my Experience with Healing, as I’m Intending to End Self-Sabotaging Timelines by maintaining my Consciousness that they are in fact Self-Sabotaging.  Four-five Degrees is plenty close enough to impact any new Projects we’re starting under this Influence – such as Starting a new Health Regime, or Exploring the possibility of Trusting People. 

Diamond Stars are Self-Resolving Challenges.  The Grace (blue triangles) in this one has to do with the Health Thing (Varuna-North Node) and The Truth About How We Need To Adjust Our Boundaries In Order To Manifest What We Want (Alethia-Pallas-Makemake).  Which pretty much sums up the Story, doesn’t it.

Doingness and Consciousness

Whew!  What a Relief, to be done with all that!  Woke up this morning after a long sound Sleep with a clear head finally, raring to get to work on my long to-do list that’s been gathering Moss while all these vague Dramas have been going on!  Amazing how I got things done today in a few minutes that seemed like they would take hours before.

Zipped through the email (usually takes much of the day), composted the kitchen scraps and washed the buckets, cleaned/refilled/hung the Hummingbird feeders, changed the furnace filter, took out garbage and recycling,  harvested Herbs for infusing into Olive Oil and Huckleberry leaves for Tisane, added armloads of Buckwheat and Parsley and Beeweed and Carrot and Oregano blossom and Fireweed and Mullein and Daylily and Raspberry and Brussels Sprouts stems to my nascent Hugelbed, trashed Rusting Cole leaves, swept three months worth of detritus off the Garden sidewalks, started some client astrology – very satisfying sense of Accomplishment.  

So, now, what was that Full Moon about?

Oh.

Look and Learn.  

Okay.  Well, yes, I had a hard time concentrating on my new Michael Roads book, as if I was reading through a thick layer of something transparent.  I could see the words through it, but I couldn’t really grok the impact through it.  My Skepticism kept coming up, Either/Or stuff, very tempting.  Hmmm.

Glad to see that my local Food Co-op is finally getting somewhat hip to Glyphosate, so I don’t have to write another letter.  Didn’t eat as well as I could have, didn’t drink enough Water.  Wasn’t very Conscious about many little things like mixing my Vitamin-C-Pycnogenol-Glutathione-Gymnema cocktail to go with my Date-Chocolate-Walnut bars (Clif Kit’s Organic, yummy, no added Sugar).

Interesting.  Being Conscious about Doing seems to take time, or to create the Illusion of “taking” time.  Or to make Time disappear.  The Thousand Vignettes are getting more Intense and harder to Let Go Of, no shortage of those, and glad to see that I was pretty Conscious about Responding quickly and Lovingly to them, able to Lovingly Let Go of most of them.

Okay, feels like two Personae that are kind of impatient with one another – to the extent that they know each other, are getting to know one another a little better.  That’s always a Powerful Learning.  Time for some Gestalt; if they can synch their Objectives Win-Win, there’s much Power in that.  

Oh, then there’s this!  I know it’s Core because I can’t hang onto it.  I keep thinking of it then a minute later I’ve lost it.  As my First Teacher used to say, “Your own Truth goes right through you” – you can’t hang on to it.  Timing.  The Seventh Harmonic.  Not Wasting Energy over anything whose Time has not arrived yet.  When the Time is right, even huge tasks are Effortless.  When it isn’t, even small tasks are a Labor.  I’m beginning to Remember that more often.  I’ll have to do some PIAVAs around that!

Full Moon 29.11c Timing

Should anyone want to Learn or Interpret their Experience relative to the “Stars” or Time anything, the specific event runs something like this…

• 29 November…
  • 4am PST – New Moon at 8 Sagittarius, “Within the depths of the Earth new elements are being formed: The alchemical fire which both purifies and transforms the very substance of huper inner life.“
  • 5am PST – Juno Initiates Moon at 8 Sagittarius.
  • 9am PST – Nemesis Initiates Moon at 10 Sagittarius, “A theatrical representation of a golden-haired Goddess of Opportunity.“
  • noon PST – Juno Initiates Sun at 8 Sagittarius.
• 2 December 1pm – Nemesis Initiates Sun at 12 Sagittarius, A flag turns into an Eagle which turns into a Rooster saluting the Dawn.

Sagittarius 12 is the Degree of the Pluto-Chiron Initiation at the dawn of the current Century.  We can interpret Pluto-Chiron as “There Is No Other Option But Love,” the flag as nationalism and other group-Identification Archetypes (including Race and Patriarchy), the Eagle as being Forced to adopt a wider viewpoint, and the Rooster as Herald of the Light.  

You could Interpret the Eagle/Rooster trigger as a nucular holocaust (which would make a very bright Light) or you could Intend that the triggers are a lot more peaceful.  I’m reminded of the sudden and sharp transition from flag to Eagle/Banty Rooster created by the Kent State murders, a four-Person Human Sacrifice.  Noble and Skillful Souls.

The Chiron-Pluto Cycle is currently two elevenths of the way around the Loop.  The Eleventh Harmonic is about Self-Confidence – “the beauty that we all possess  in our gifts, talents, and resources which can quell the beasts or demons within our nature” – Angeles Arrien, Tarot Handbook, p.66.  A hint about the Recovery of our Abandoned Genius.  We won’t get to the Waxing Square, when the Energy breaks out into the Open – or into the Light, until 2028.  

The second step in the eleven-step march around the Zodiac is about Ritual – the Power of Repetition.  We could effectively tag it as “Fake it (Self-Confidence) till you Make it.”  If we’re Paying Attention Lovingly, each time we Fake it we’ll receive important Information about the Obstacles between us and True Self-Trust.  With Karma Dead, this could lead very rapidly to True Self-Trust, a solid corollary to our recently-Reborn and about-to-Deepen Self-Love.

The Energy of a New Cycle is evident around its Initiation, then goes Underground till the Waxing Square, at which point it begins to pervade the mainstream.  Notice that Equal Rights for Minorities and Women was prominent around the Pluto-Uranus Initiation in the 1960s, and now that we’re past the 2012-2015 Uranus-Pluto Waxing Square, Equal Rights are very much under attack, just when they should be breaking out into the Light.  

In my neighborhood it was the High School students who spontaneously and vigorously marched to object to the apparent return to institutionalized Racism and Misogyny.  How the Reaction and Response to this evolves will be telling. 

We should be able to detect the Energy of the Juno-Moon/Sun and Nemesis-Moon/Sun Cycles over the next few days.  The Juno Cycles are about Emergence of the Unrecognized, and the Nemesis Cycles about the Appearance of Opportunity, with an emphasis on Appearance; it’s interesting that the Goddess was blond.  Remember that the Underlying December Energy is about Learning by Observing without Judgment or Conclusion.

The Appearance of Opportunity suggests that we take advantage of it while remaining skeptical, without putting all of our eggs in the basket.  Saturn (which would suggest Concentration on the Best Option) is not Strongly Lit Up here, so we can safely Hedge.  Over the next week, keep an eye out for anything you don’t Recognize, particularly an Opportunity that you wouldn’t otherwise Recognize.  Invest in it, but don’t bet the ranch.

The Moon-Juno and Moon-Nemesis Cycles will be about the immediate Emotional Impact of these Circumstances.  The Cycles hit their Waxing Squares on 7 December.  Dip a toe into your Unexpected Opportunity this week, then stay alert next week for Confirmation that your hunch was right, or Suggestion that it needs adjustment.  Invest more into the Trend, with or without adjustment, next week.

While the Moon Cycles are short enough that it makes sense to combine the two, the Solar Cycles are longer.  By the time they get to their Waxing Squares next April, they’ll be two weeks apart, the Sun-Juno Emergence Cycle Opening in the first week, and the Sun-Nemesis Opportunity Cycle Leafing Out in the third week of April.  The Solar Cycles are more substantial, so you’ll want more evidence than your Instincts will deliver.  Plan to carefully review your Investments in April, and bail out if the Trends aren’t bending your way.

The Thousand Vignettes

Folks say that as we die, our whole life passes before our eyes.  Well, when an Ego Death approaches, a snippet of our Lives passes before our Attention.  This happens to me every time I get into the shower – and at other times of course.  

Without warning or apparent provocation I’ll suddenly “travel” to an earlier time where some poignant event is occurring.  Where I passed up an Opportunity, or where I inadvertently apparently insulted someone, or when some threshold of omission or commission passed, from which there was no return.  There’s a sense of Melancholy, and often a tear isn’t far away.

It’s as if I’m watching a movie or a play.  These snippets can easily snag me into Regret or Grief or Anger.  Each one is an Opportunity to re-grasp my Karma or Let It Go.  I’ve discovered, thanks to Michael Roads, that it helps immensely to flood the spontaneously recalled scene with “White Light.”  

The “White Light” that folks talk about isn’t really white or milky, it’s Clear – some folks refer to it as a “Clear White Light.”  On the other hand it’s not really transparent; it’s visible to the “mind’s eye.”  A good description might be “Opalescent.”  In Light, white is the combination of all colors.  And while the colors in Clear White Light aren’t really visible to the eye directly, you know they’re there.  “Shimmering” is a good word, but it’s subtle.

Full Moon 29.11b

The New Moon itself will be a Big Challenge to the Ego and the status quo.  It occurs within a few arcminutes (ie, very little – one eighteen-hundredth of the Zodiac) from Juno, which symbolizes the Edges of Consciousness.  In other words, over the next three weeks we’re going to have to work like Hell to keep from Learning and Growing.  Don’t forget that this is in the context of the previous post.

In addition, it’s also Conjunct asteroid Nemesis.  The mythic Nemesis is about Punishment for Hubris.  If you’re Manifesting your True Self, and you’re not saddled with a Punishing God Image, you won’t demonstrate Hubris; you’ll be Enjoying Power-With “the Gods” rather than Power-Over.  So what then constitutes Hubris?  Trying to operate from the Ego rather than the True Self.  This is kind of like a “pop quiz” – we’ve been studying Mask Removal for almost five years now, and “Reality” is about to deliver to us homework on anything we’ve skimmed over.

If we ever wonder what we’re doing here and why, all we need to do is look at the Moon’s Nodes.  The South Node shows us the Emotions and Inertial Patterns that Limit us, and the North Node shows us what we need to do to Liberate our Self.  Hidden behind the Emotions and Inertial Patterns represented by the South Node are the Unclaimed Skills we need to achieve our Liberation.  We can’t do it without both.

Well, this New Moon also T-Squares – Mastery through Challenge – the Nodes.  So whatever Crisis the Ego undergoes will be an incredible Teaching about why we came here and what Unfinished Business we still have.  But a big sign on your bathroom Mirror –

??    VICTIM?    ??

 

 

and on your smartphone screen, and every time you see it,  check yourself.  Are you in any sense Feeling Victimized, by anything?  Is there anything in your Life that isn’t completely your own Choice?  This is what we’re working on for the rest of 2016.  If we do this homework, it doesn’t need to be difficult – other than the Ego Death, but we’re used to that, right?

“You poor Sweetheart, you’re Feeling like a Victim around that, aren’t you.”

“Great Spirit, please help me to Lovingly and Gently and Rapidly and Completely Embrace all traces of Victimhood within my Energy Field, and Let It Go for good.  Thank you, Great Spirit!”

Look to see if there’s any Residual Emotion around it, and Tap it Out.  Go through the PIAVA list and pick out the one or two Choices that seem to fit best in the moment.

It’s not just the Nodes – Neptune is on the South Node, meaning that the Veil is very thin here.  This is good, because it gives us direct access to what would usually be hidden from us.  It may Feel horrible, but that’s just Ego Death, you’ve been through that so many times before, you’re no stranger to it.  Embrace it, look beyond it and Imagine how much better your Life will be without those Limitations.  Of course it’s Scary; keep Tapping on that till you’re shaking less and Feeling a little more in Control.  Then do your PIAVAs.

“Ganeshi, please Remove All Obstacles to my Being Fully and Effortlessly Responsible to Everything in my Life that I have Chosen.  Thank you, Ganeshi!”

If you’re Responsible (able to Respond) to what you’ve Chosen, you won’t even have to think about it, you’ll just Act in your own Interests.  If your Choices aren’t the right ones, it should rapidly become obvious, and you can make different Choices.  If you’re being Responsible to things that you haven’t Chosen, that will fall away.  Don’t Hesitate to PIAVA these Changes if you Feel the Need.

And dwarf planet Orcus is on the North Node.  Orcus’s job is to Punish Oath-Breakers.  Nemesis’s big brother, the Bully.  You don’t need Oaths to Commit to your True Self.  Most Oaths are Self-Betrayals, and most of them have been outside of our Consciousness – till now.  At the Time, we needed them for our Safety, then we forgot we made them.  Now they’re just chains around our ankles and we can Let Them Go.  Orcus’s Punishment is Guilt, and you need to Stand Still for it.  Expect it, Locate it in your Body, be Loving with it there, “poor Sweetheart” it, PIAVA your Freedom.

So this is a Big Deal, kind of a Culmination of all the Work we’ve been doing all our Life.  Bigtime Learning Opportunity, Bigtime Mystery School, Bigtime Recovery of our Genius, Bigtime Karma-Buster, Bigtime Consciousness Goose, Bigtime Life Progress Review.  And that ain’t all.  The New Moon T-Squares the Nodes.  So what lies at the Vacancy Opposite to it, that would make it a more Balanced Grand Cross?  Vacancies represent what we need to provide, Consciously, to complete the circuit so the Energy can flow.

Aldebaran.  The Emperor of Stars, King of the Four Horsepeople of the Apocalypse.  Meaning Integrity.  From what I read about Aldebaran, they don’t mean Yangtegrity, they mean Yintegrity.  It’s not about keeping your Commitments to Other, it’s about Committing to the True Self.  Intense.  If you find yourself starting to Act to “Save Face,” stop yourself in mid-sentence and change course.

Above all, this is about Learning.  Look and Learn, Observe, eschew Judgment, eschew Conclusions.  Be Present and Loving with All of your Emotions, but don’t Identify with them.  Watch them, Embrace them, Feel them, don’t Be them.  Tap them Out if they’re Strong.  Be quick with your Cancel-Neutralize-Upgrades when you spot negative or compulsive thoughts.  

Sappho – Self-Love, recently Reborn, enters Scorpio on 27 November.  Scorpio is Relentless.  We’ll be extending Self-Love deeply into the Self, ferreting out any Obstacles to it, and taking no prisoners.  When you find an Obstacle to Self-Love, Avoid Judgment.  Self-Judgment is the antithesis of Self-Love.  Tender it a thousand Blessings, and Let It Go.  If you need to do that a hundred times before you’re able to Let Go of It, do it a hundred times.  Feel the Grief, the Regret, the Pain, but Let It Go.

Full Moon 29.11a

As we approach the 29 November New Moon, Avoiding Expectations is the most important thing we can remember to do.  As Pan often reminds Michael Roads, “Look and Learn” – Observe, no Judgments, no Conclusions.

We not only have a Grand Quintile (Massive Learning Opportunity) but a Yin Gate (Feminine Mystery School), both of which continue into December, with the Yin Gate ongoing into January.  Our Trust Grand Sextile also remains.

The Grand Quintile features…

• Jupiter – Expansion
• Quaoar-Pholus – Being Fully Responsible to Our Survival
• Neptune – Our Cultures
• Sedna – Becoming Conscious of Our Fear
• Vesta – Our Unconscious Beliefs

The Yin Gate is embedded in the ongoing Golden Rectangle that we’ve been reading as Recovery of Our Abandoned Genius.  The Golden Rectangle contains…

• Ixion-Mercury – Awareness of our Abandoned Genius
• Chaos – Our Potential, Limited only by Our Beliefs
• Haumea – Rebirth
• Uranus-Eris-Ceres-Mnemosyne – Ongoing Recovery of Our True Self

and the central axis that completes the Yin Gate is made up of…

• Lilith – Self-Sovereignty
• Sedna – Awareness of our Fear

which creates the four Quincunxes (Curiosity) that characterize the Mystery School…

• Lilith to Uranus-Eris et al – “I Wonder how Yintegrity and Self-Sovereignty might fit together in my Life.”
• Sedna to Ixion-Mercury – “I Wonder how Fear has suppressed my Genius.”
• Lilith to Chaos – “I Wonder what sort of Unimagined Worlds might Open Up to me when I regain my Self-Sovereignty.”
• Sedna to Haumea – “I Wonder what awaits me on the Other Side of Fear.”

While some of these might sound like “Duh!” Wonderings, they aren’t; there are genuine Mysteries behind their apparent obviousness.  For instance, it might seem like of course Yintegrity and Self-Sovereignty fit together, like hand and glove, yet if we depend on Approval from Others, can we really Enjoy full Yintegrity?  

“People unwittingly and unknowingly cluster.  Every strong emotional expression clusters.  Like attracts like; this is clustering.  But there is one exception.  People who live and express unconditional Love are people of Balance.  And Balance does not cluster.  These people walk their own path.  

“And this is what I’m looking for – the person or people who do not cluster.  I use my far-away vision, taking in all the townspeople who are visible in one long over-glance.  People with Balance stand out from the crowd, rather like a light on a dark night.”

–Michael Roads, Through the Eyes of Love, Book Two, p,273.

The more you’re able to Open Up to genuine Accept-No-Conclusions Curiosity, the greater your Leap into Growth.

In addition to the Ixion-et al Golden Rectangle, the Grand Sextile includes Eurydike (Trust) and Pallas (Boundaries).  When Lilith and Sedna are factored in, plus Venus and Chiron (and we stretch Orb a tad), we have ten out of twelve points for creating a Grand Unx (twelve more or less equally-spaced planets) in our recently-favored 20-26 Degree zone – the ideal Configuration for breaking free from Archetypes, Karma, and Self-Sabotage.

Of the two Vacancies in the Grand Unx, one is occupied by asteroid Siwa, a Slavic Fertility Goddess whose Discovery chart reveals a fascinating picture of the Traumatic Reality of Creativity/Procreativity.  The other Vacancy is 23 Cancer, A literary society.

Portal 24.11b

We painted a fairly complete summary of the overall Jupiter-Square-Pluto (Letting Go of Insecurity) chart in Everybody Survive? …

https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/2016/11/21/everybody-survive-2/

We mentioned the Grand Sextile that asteroid Eurydike (Trust) completes, which includes the ongoing Golden Rectangle with Ixion, Chaos, Haumea, and Uranus-Eris-Ceres, which we’ve been discussing for a while as Grace-Full Recovery of our Abandoned Genius.  And we mentioned the two ancillary T-Squares to Chiron (Self-Empathy for difficult Emotions) and Lilith (Self-Sovereignty).  

All together, this is a very positive combination of Ease (the Grand Sextile) and Motivation (the T-Squares).  Michael Roads would see it as a lovely Torsion between Structure and Drive, between Stability and Change, frequently flashing the Brilliant White of Balance.

The Jupiter-Pluto Square itself occurs at 16 of Libra and Capricorn, at about 3pm PST.  As we detailed in the previous post, this is about Letting Go of Insecurity.  Its several companions (Moon – Instinct, Venus – Values, and Lachesis – Timing of Ego Shifts) smear it across the following several days.  

The times given are the times when the astroevent is exact or complete – most of us are likely to feel the Energy start to abate about then.  Should be interesting relative to any Challenges around other people you’re hanging out with.  The durations in parens are a guess at how long ahead of time we’re likely to be Feeling the Energy – depending on your Sensitivity of course…

• 24 November…
  • 3pm PST –
    • Waning Jupiter-Pluto Square, Asking us to Expand into Emptiness.  The Eurydike/Eurydice story is about failure to escape from Pluto’s Realm (the Other Side of the Veil) because of Lack of Trust; the suggestion here is that we Expand our Metaphysical Self to encompass Pluto and his Realm.  (a month)
    • Lachesis Inititates Venus at 16 Capricorn, “Recess“; beginning a 16-month Cycle where it’s Important that we Suspend our Values so they can reorganize themselves to make sense of our recent and forthcoming Experience with the Changes.  If you hear yourself starting to say “I’m [not] the kind or person who…” swallow it so you don’t stop yourself from Growing.  (a day)
  • 6-8pm PST – 
    • Moon Waning Square Lachesis, Voiding of a one-month Cycle that Initiated at 9 Capricorn on 4 November; the Angel that’s been with us packs up her Harp, getting ready to leave.  (3 hours)
    • Jupiter Initiates the Moon at 16 Libra; this is a one-month Cycle reflecting the Jupiter-Pluto Deconstruction.  If you’ve been Grasping things you’re afraid to Lose, it would be an excellent time to PIAVA that you keep their Essence or Better and have an Effortless Transition.  (3 hours)
    • Moon Squares Pluto; this is a Waning Square in a Cycle that began on 5 November at 16 Capricorn, and essentially means that Recess is over.  (3 hours)
• 25 November…
  • 6am – Venus Waxing Squares Jupiter, moving a one-year Cycle into Full Visibility; the Cycle began in late August at 28 Virgo, “A bald man has seized Power.”  So, now we know it’s a wig.  (a day)
• 26 November…
  • 5am – Pluto Initiates Lachesis at 16 Capricorn, Recess again; this starts a four-year Cycle where we’re expected to be wearing the right uniform.  Ouch.  (a week)
• 28 November…
  • Lachesis Waxing Square Jupiter, bringing into Full View a six-year Cycle that began in May 2014 at 20 Cancer, “Venetian gondoliers giving a serenade,” where we gain Energy by breaking with tradition.  About that uniform.  (a week)

2020C or Portal 24.11a

Okay, past time to catch up on 24 November.  Let’s look at the Big Picture first.  The Deconstruction or Void phase of a Cycle lies between the Waning Square and the next Initiation or Conjunction – from 270 to 360 Degrees.  However we had become Attached to the Developments and Outcomes of that Cycle, we Descend into the Void around that Attachment.

Several major Cycles are Descending into the Void between now and 2020.  We’ve talked about one of these, the Saturn-Pluto Cycle…

https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/2016/10/20/2020-b/

https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/2016/10/19/2020-a/

The major process symbolized by Saturn-Pluto, in the popular mind (as reinforced by circumstances which probably aren’t “coincidental”) at least, is Destruction – 9/11 being the iconic example.  Since most astrologers read Saturn as Limitation…

as we’ve said many times, we read Saturn as The Most Important Thing, which does indeed Ask us to Limit our Attention to Priority #1…

and Pluto as Death…

as we’ve said many times, we read Pluto as Transformation, especially Transformation of the Zeitgeist or Primary Trance, which requires a shift of Identity, aka Ego Death…

it’s no wonder that they read Saturn-Pluto as Destruction.  We read it as an Opportunity to Define (Saturn) which Trance or Propaganda (Pluto) is being Tranceformed.  Of course we’re looking at a Square, so we’re looking at Mastering this process through Challenge.  As they say, if it doesn’t make you Stronger, it Kills you.

The 24 November Waning Square, which precedes another 2020 Initiation, is the Jupiter-Pluto Square.  The Current Jupiter-Pluto Cycle started in early December 2007, just as we Endured the first  Derivative Crash, propagandized by the Perps as a “Subprime Mortgage” Crisis.  It occurred at 29 Sagittarius, “A fat boy mowing the lawn of his house on an elegant suburban street.”  Interesting metaphor, as so many of these houses were pulled out from under their overfed suburbanites.

The Jupiter-Pluto Cycle in general is about Expanding the popular paradigm.  We can read the current Cycle, with the assistance of hindsight, as Expanding our Insecurity.  From that Perspective, the Challenge here is to Let Go of the Attachment to Insecurity that we’ve built up since the previous economic Crash.  This fits very well with our recent astroemphasis on Trust, and with the delusions of return to Fat Boys Mowing that a certain Grifter so successfully sold to eager buyers.

However, this is the entrance to the Void.  Like most of the Grifter’s products, it won’t take long for the promises to fail to deliver.  In the Void the Demise of Attachment to Insecurity doesn’t mean physical Prosperity, it means the Opportunity to Let Go of Negative thoughts and Emotions, Worry, Lack of Self-Love (Self-Love having recently been Reborn), and other such symptoms of disconnection from the True Self (the True Self remaining our primary point of emphasis here while Uranus continues to Conjoin Eris and moves beyond its Waning Square to Pluto).

Another 2020 Transition will be the Waning Square of Pluto to Eris, and the Pluto-Eris Cycle entering the Void.  The Pluto-Eris Cycle is about the Truthiness of the Mass Trance or Zeitgeist.

The Pluto-Eris Square occurs in late January 2020, at 24 Capricorn-Aries.  The next Jupiter-Pluto Cycle Initiates in early April 2020 at 25 Capricorn.

Creating and Emoting

It doesn’t work to gloss over or Deny Real Emotions; Emotions are actually the glue that differentiates Matter from Energy, part of the Moon’s role here.  Tapping them Out, You-poor-Sweethearting them, Embracing them, and (optionally) Exploring their Origins is a very productive Response to any Emotional Drama

Actually, this is True even for the “positive” Emotions.  Many of those are programmed Responses to the outside World, rather than expressions of the Truth in our Heart.  

We just don’t want to stay in the Drama any more than is necessary to be Loving and Gentle with it.  “If you are emotionally and mentally invested in the out-picturing of the chaos, you are not in your personal power of transformation,” say the Hathors we’re quoting and linking to below.

Once we’ve Embraced the Emotions, then we can move into Manifestation unencumbered.  A couple of paragraphs from these advisors…

“We know that many of you do not and have not ever felt at home here on this planet.  We will confirm that this is not your home.  You have not felt like you fit in because you are here to quicken, arouse, stimulate, and summon a new reality.

“You are here to remember your unlimited abilities.  You are here to execute and carry out anchoring in the conscious field the truth that all beings are multidimensional divine cosmic starseeds.  Quicken, arouse.”

The rest of which is well worth reading…

Denying Versus Creating

I’m sure we’ve been through many times when the Contrast between What Is and What We Want has been so great that we’re thrown into Confusion over whether to Risk Denial by Focusing on What We Want, or to Reinforce the Nasties by Focusing on What Is.  But this certainly seems like one of the more Extreme times.

While it’s certainly Real, have you spotted what’s “wrong” with that paragraph?  For starters, two things…

• Confusion is Good – it’s the first stage of Growth in Consciousness, it means that a few bars in our mental-Emotional Belief-Cage are loosening up; we just need to Enjoy Confusion as it is rather than trying to Resolve it intellectually
• The paragraph is an Either/Or, a tell that we’re looking at intellectual Duality rather than Nondual Reality

Easier to see now that we’re out of the Storm, eh?  Still easier to say than do of course.

Here’s a snippet from another, very worthwhile view, from Brenda Hoffman…
