You Poor Sweetheart, You Don’t Feel Like Celebrating, Do You.

No Biscuits. Why should we Celebrate when Our Emotions (Pisces) Become Top Priority (Saturn)?¹ Especially when it’s our Bummer Emotions that seem to be Surfacing, and we don’t even know why – other than our Tired Old Excuses that don’t actually work any more to Allow us to Blame Something or Someone Else. A quote from Lonsdale (p.372) is a must…

“If we plug into, and stay plugged into, mechanical, mental worlds, all the life force gets drained out of us… But… There is this place where we get swept away and don’t arrive in a space we could ever call our own… Present to our own personal soul in the midst of life is an achievement. It’s something to live for. It’s the one thing we cannot do without. To get there, to come back from those strange places, we learn how to feel what we don’t know we’re feeling, see what we have yet to affirm we can see, and pick up on those hidden treasures.“

Time to Rank our Values, to see Exactly What Is The Most Important Thing (Saturn). Is it Feeling Good – wouldn’t that be Wonderful?

Or is it Letting Go of all those Bummer Emotions once and for all? That’s what Pisces Does for a Living after all. And isn’t that what our Lust for 5D is all about anyway? It’s kind of a Test to Verify whether we’re Really Committed to Enlightenment.² We’re Lucky that “the Stars” have Conspired to make it fairly Easy for us to reframe these Bummer Emotions as Entertainment, on several fronts.

First, the Major Challenge in the 7 March 2023 Full Moon is all about Being Present to our own personal soul in the midst of life, and it’s Self-Resolving (the Challenge will Resolve itself if we, as Paul would say, Let It Be).³ Second, the Full Moon is Intimately Related to a Particularly Powerful Configuration that makes Breaking Patterns as easy as Cracking Eggs, that Allows us to Shift Big Patterns by simply making Adjustments.⁴

And the Full Moon itself is Merged with the Principle of Pattern-Breaking (Orcus), including Tough Hombres (Thereus).

It’s not just Saturn in Pisces that’s making Life seem like a Bother. In a few days, we begin a brand new Cycle about Expanding Despair and Miracles (Jupiter-Chiron),⁵ and of course we’re starting with the Despair. That’s where the Poor-Sweethearts come in. The easiest way to Shift Discouragement or Despair is to Poor-Sweetheart it. Of course we’ll have to Change the Subject Rigorously and perhaps Iteratively, maybe even resorting to “You Poor Sweetheart, you’re having Trouble Changing the Subject, aren’t you.“

As if all this isn’t Enough Already, this Expanding Despair and Miracles Initiation is a Triple Initiation with Our Unconscious Limitations (Vesta-Jupiter-Chiron), all on the same day in the same Degree. This is just a total Repeat of everything we’ve just been talking about – feel what we don’t know we’re feeling, Let Go of all those Bummer Emotions once and for all, Break Life-Long Addictions, and Embrace our Held Emotions. We’ll talk more about these Cycles next time.

You know the Cosmos is Serious when it Stutters and Repeats itself using entirely Different Metaphors!

This Seasoned Time-Traveling Morganite (Pink Beryl) Crystal from across the Galaxies, will help with these Assignments. She’s Seen It All, and knows all the Cosmic Jokes, but She’s Still Looking for Enduring Truth…

¹ Saturn Enters Pisces 7 March 2023 (PST 5:34 am, GMT 1:34 pm, IST 7:04 pm, AEST 11:34 pm). 1 Pisces is about Tripping Out So Far on 3D that We Never Get Back to Know that We Left…And Then Our Soul Taps Us on the Shoulder.

² Salacia (Our Commitment to Ascension) is in 8 Aries, A Lizard Dressed in Blue Satin and Pointy Shoes. 8 Aries is the Cosmic Joke Portal. Can we Take Ourself Seriously in such a Costume, especially when few Others can? “The skillful means is to take it all the way, to be ingenious and resourceful and just a bit wild and wacky. When you’ve got it and you flaunt it, this can be quite a gift, or it can be a stuck place if you let it” (Lonsdale p.43). In other words, we have to reframe these Bummer Emotions as Entertainment!

³ Full Moon 7 March (PST 4:40 am, GMT 12:40 pm, IST 6:10 pm, AEST 10:40 pm) in 17 Virgo, An Ornery Hermit Due to Excessive Sensitivity. The Major Challenge is a T-Square to Uranus (Our Soul), Self-Resolved by a Finger of the Goddess from Requiem (Ego Death) and Kassandra (Disbelief). Back before Marijuana was High Octane, we used to be able to get, when we were Lucky, Cannabis from the Mexican state of Michoacán, which we called Gigglyweed. As THC often does, it would Grab Your Attention and firmly Attach it to something Heavy, but just as you started to turn Heavy about it, it would Crack and seem Hilariously Funny. A Dance between Kassandra and Requiem will be a lot like that.

⁴ The Full Moon is Connected to a Grand Unx (12 planets equally spaced around the Zodiac, meaning Pattern-Breaking on a Grand Scale) by an Octile Angle (1/8th of the Zodiac or 1½ Signs), and this Angle is part of a Grand Octile (8 planets equally spaced around the Zodiac, meaning Interlocking Adjustments).

The Grand Unx Connects Hopi Out of Bounds-Haumea (Rebirth into Profound Respect for All Things), Eurydike (Trust), Ixion (No Rules), Tantalus (Desire as Bliss), Damocles (Accountability), Arachne (The Web of Life), Atlantis (Technology), Moira-Sedna (Fear of Fate), Chaos OOB-Ganesa OOB (Easy Removal of Obstacles to Our Unlimited Potential), Cyllarus OOB (Big Ego Deaths), Sisyphus (Lessons in Enjoying the Journey), and Ceres (Sustainability), all on the Cusps. Breaking Patterns involving any two of those in Sequence (such as Tantalus-Damocles or Cyllarus-Sisyphus), can be Changed much more Easily than usual, perhaps as Easily as Intending It. Write out each of the Adjacent Pairs, and Imagine Breaking your Self-Sabotaging Habits around the Interactions between the two members of each pair. For instance, you may be able to Let Go of Negative Interactions between Fear of Your Fate and Obstacles to Your Unlimited Potential.

The Grand Octile Connects Hopi-Haumea, Requiem, Pluto-Tantalus (Addictions), Sun-Nessus-Lachesis-Atropos (Banishing Abuse Karma), Atlantis, Altjira (Enabling Life), Cyllarus, and Moon-Orcus-Thereus (Breaking Patterns of Self-Abuse). You may be able to Resolve Negative Patterns between any two Adjacent planets in this list simply by Adjusting them. For instance, you may be able to Break Life-Long Addictions by PIAVAing Relevant Ego Deaths. You won’t even need to Identify the Egos – just PIAVA that “All Egos that are Associated with my Addictions be Declared Redundant and Lovingly and Gently Dismissed.” Again, pair up the eight adjacent planets and Imagine what your Life would be like if you Adjusted the Relationships between the two members of each pair.

⁵ Chiron Initiates Jupiter 11-12 March (PST 10:55 pm 11th, GMT 6:55 am 12th, IST 12:25 pm 12th, AEST 4:55 pm 12th), in 15 Aries, home of the Star Alpheratz in Andromeda (Freedom of Action and the Need to Be Present with Oneself). Chiron Initiates Vesta 12 March (PDT 5:27 am, GMT 12:27 pm, IST 5:57 pm, AEST 10:27 pm) in 15 Aries. Jupiter Initiates Vesta 12-13 March (PDT 9:55 am 12th, GMT 4:55 pm 12th, IST 10:25 pm 12th, AEST 2:55 am 13th) in 15 Aries.

Anger & Guilt, or Action & Prudence

That’s what we’re living with through at least 2 am PDT 31 October 2022 (10am BST, 7pm AEST). That’s the night or morning before Halloween (except in Oz), so this year’s Halloween may not be too Tricky, though the Moon remains Out of Bounds till 9:36 pm PDT 31 October (5:36 am BST 1st November, 2:36 pm AEST 1st), so Panic-Induced Backlash could get Tricky, especially in the Southern Hemisphere, where the Moon is Out of Bounds Overhead. Also, we’re scheduled for a rash of Ego Deaths next week, till 4:31 pm PDT 4 November (12:31 am BST 5th, 9:31 am AEST 5th), which could begin Early for any one or more of us.

The Anger or Action is Mars, which could also come across as “just” Anxiety. It’s Stationary (Strong) 6:35 am PDT 30 October (2:35 pm BST, 11:35 pm AEST). In your natal chart, the neighborhood of 26 Degrees will be Lit Up by it, especially in Gemini, Virgo, and Pisces. If you spend a lot of time in your Mind, Sagittarius as well. Lonsdale’s take on 26 Gemini is something like “Losing One’s Self in the Infinite Wonder of Inner Worlds.” Letting yourself Contemplate these Wavellite Crystal Clusters might Settle you Down a bit…

The Guilt or Prudence is Nemesis, Stationary 1:49 am PDT 31 October (9:49 am BST, 6:49 pm AEST), in 19 Pisces, which will also Trigger your natal planets close to 19 Gemini and 19 Sagittarius, and again, if you hang out in your Mind a lot, you could find yourself having Arguments with the planets you have near 19 Virgo. 19 Pisces reads “Always in Touch with Paradise,” or the like. If you’re Exercising your Prudence, don’t Judge folks who aren’t. Most non-Muggles these days are working on their Honesty more than their Obedience. Letting yourself get Lost in this Heliodor Beryl Crystal could reduce any Self-Judgement you could be Experiencing…

The Ego Deaths would be a Station of Cyllarus, 4:11 pm PDT 4 November (12:11 am BST and 9:11 am AEST, both 5 November), in 5 Leo (An Old Soul Who Discovers that the Old Rules No Longer Apply). Your natal planets near 5 Taurus and 5 Scorpio will Stand Out, and maybe those near 5 Aquarius as well. This Cacoxinite-Embedded Amethyst Crystal may help you Surrender Egos that aren’t working as well as you’d like and move on to something Better.

Of course the two Energies could, and probably will, Combine, leaving us with something like Discouragement. This Smiling Pink Calcite Crystal could help with that. Try it with a side of Poor-Sweethearting..

The Anger/Action Energy is likely to be Confusing, but Confusion is the First Step toward Expansion of Consciousness, so that’s good. To get there though we need to Forget the misconception that Confusion is a sign that you need to Figure Something Out, and just Enjoy Confusion as a Valid Emotion on its own. All we need to do is Relax into it, and our Intuition will take care of the rest of the Journey. See if this Hyalite Opal will help you do that…

The Mars Station is Waxing Square to Neptune (Material Confusion and Spiritual Clarity). In the 13 June 2020 Neptune-Mars Initiation chart, Mars and Neptune in 21 Pisces (Bouncing between the Compelling Safety of Karma and a Strong Longing to Let It All Hang Out ) are Merged with Requiem (Respect for Death) and the Focus of a T-Square from Hybris (Arrogance) Opposite (Arguing With) Sun-Asbolus OOB-Karma OOB (Clarity about our Karma). The Waxing Square is when a Cycle gets Serious. If you Look Deep into the Eye of this Long-Traveling Morganite Beryl Fellow, He may have some Wisdom for you about where to take your Ascension Journey next…

The Guilt/Prudence Nemesis Station features a Debate (Opposition) between Healing Codependence (Panacea-Hylonome) and Clarifying Boundaries (Veritas-Pallas). It also Lights up another Iteration of the Waning Square between Saturn and Uranus (Ego and Soul ). This Square is a couple of years old, so it’s not a Biggie by itself, but it does Connect us with the 13 February 1988 Initiation that began this Uranus-Saturn Cycle, began the predecessors of this blog, and began what José Argüelles called the Harmonic Convergence, a major Transition in the Mayan Calendar that led to the 2012 End of Time as We Knew It.

The 1988 Uranus-Saturn Initiation, in 30 Sagittarius (Reweaving the Tapestry of the Relationship between Soul and Ego), was the Focus of a T-Square from the Debate (Opposition) between the Truth of the Heart (Aletheia) and Fate (Moira). It Set the Stage for all of the Work we’ve been doing with our Karma since then. The Truth of the Heart speaks to our Unlimited Potential, not to our Limiting Beliefs and Habits. If we need a Reminder of the Essence of Reweaving this Tapestry, gazing at a Celestite Crystal should to the trick…

The Waning Square of the Saturn-Uranus Ego-Soul Cycle that began 17 February 2021 is the Beginning of the End of the Cycle, the point where we Let Go of what we’ve been doing since 1988, and Descend into the Void between Cycles. It doesn’t help us to look ahead and figure out what the next Cycle will be about, because like Inanna we’ll be a Different Person by then. We don’t have the Bandwidth at this point to interpret the next Cycle, till we Bathe in the Void. Starhawk in Truth or Dare defines seven stages to the Descent…

• Unraveling and Reweaving: Pattern and Ritual – Purging our undesirable Karma
• Reclaiming Value from the Judge – Transmutation, from Obedience to our Programming, to Self-Love
• Risking the Boundaries: Dethroning the Conqueror – Building a Self-Reliant Persona
• Finding A Voice: Breaking the Censor’s Silence – Speaking our Truth
• Creating Sustainable Culture: Serving No Masters – Trusting the Guidance from Our Own Heart
• Evoking Mystery: Restoring Organic Order – Surrendering Control and Embracing Collaboration
• Toward Community: Structure and Leadership

Since 1988 we’ve been Becoming Ready for 5D, Intending it. Now it’s time to Be 5D.
