Expanding into Fear II

In the 30 August 2021 Sedna Station (Emphasis on Converting Fear to Power) chart…

…we’ve adhered closely to our usual 3-Degree Sensitivity…

That’s “Orb” in astrologuese. Like most astrologers, we consider “Transiting” Angles to be Live if they’re within three Degrees of Exact; for instance, dwarf planet Cyllarus is 1 Degree and 47 Arcminutes (31:02 less 29:16 equals 1:47) from an exact Sextile to Sedna – that’s within 3 Degrees. The Sextile Angle (short blue line) connects two planets that are 2 Signs apart. “Transiting” means “in the sky now,” as opposed to “Natal,” meaning in a Birth Chart. The average Natal Sensitivity commonly used is around 8 Degrees (varying depending on the Angle – more for a Conjunction, less for an Unx). We’ll introduce Cyllarus a bit later.

On the other hand, we’ve expanded our Sensitivity a tad to 3½ Degrees in the 22 August Full Moon chart (if we round up the Degrees, as is customary in astrology, from 29:37 to 30 [=0] for the Moon, from 2:56 to 3 for Pholus, and from 26:10 to 27 for Karma, it still looks like 3 Degrees of Sensitivity – we often do this rounding up)…

We’ve omitted Jupiter (Expansion) in the Sedna station chart, but it was only 3:24 away from a Square (Challenge) to the Sedna Station. And, the 22 August Full Moon was Conjunct Jupiter, which is to say, About Expansion, so you can see why we speak of “Expanding” into Fear. A Full Moon chart applies mostly to the two weeks following the event, while a Station chart applies mostly to the week or so prior to the event, though as we said in the previous post, we expect the Sedna Station chart to influence the week after the event because of the Out of Bounds Moon.

We’ve also added several extracurricular Stars and ‘Roids to the Full Moon chart, in order to fill in some obvious Vacancies. We’ll get to that later. First, let’s look at the Sedna Station chart…

The meat of the Sedna Station chart is the Major Challenge (T-Square, the red triangle) to Becoming Aware of our Karma (Mercury/Awareness Conjunct/Merged With asteroid Karma/Karma). Becoming Aware of our Karma often involves an Ego Death, which are seldom pleasant, unless we Focus on The meat of the Sedna Station chart is the Major Challenge (T-Square, the red triangle) to Becoming Aware of our Karma (Mercury [Awareness] Conjunct [Merged With] asteroid Karma [Karma]). Becoming Aware of our Karma often involves an Ego Death, which are seldom pleasant, unless we Focus on How Wonderful Life Will Be After We Ditch Those Bummers! (Hint Hint). But the vegetables are in the Heavy Heavy base of the T-Square, which is where the Real Action often lies in a T-Square.

On one side of this Opposition (Dualistic Argument aka Politics) are Orders from Headquarters (the Galactic Center), Our Hidden and Often Forbidden Genius (dwarf planet Ixion), and That Which Will Blindside Us If We Continue to Ignore It (dwarf planet Pholus). Like Kabul and Nahlins and Waverly and the California Conflagrations, the Message from Galactic Headquarters is We’re Done Messing Around, It’s Time To Get your Creative Butt in Gear and Get This Fixed! Did Recycling save the Roman Empire from decline? Nothing on our Catastrophic Trajectory will Change until Hupers regard the Planet as a Partner rather than a Resource, regard Excess Profit as the Crime of Grand Theft that it is, and regard Social Norms as the Foundation of the Status Quo that is the Cause of the Problem. And that’s Exactly what our Forbidden Genii came here to Fix. Not far from Pholus are our Survival Instincts (dwarf planet Quaoar).

On the Other Side of this Political Duality are Our Intuition (dwarf planet Asbolus) and Our Unlimited Potential (dwarf planet Chaos). How many of us Cherish our Intuition and Practice Trusting it constantly? How many of us are Exhilarated by Unlimited Potential, and how many of us Terrified by it? On the GC-Ixion-Pholus side of the Political Divide are the Guts to tackle the Elephant in the Room, and on this Asbolus-Chaos side are all of our Yes-Buts. Yes-But it’s Scary – we could Lose our Mod Cons! We’ll Lose a lot more than that if we don’t Change the Trajectory.

Fortunately, we don’t have to do this Alone. We have Allies. There is a Truss Bridge across the Divide (the blue lines connecting GC-Ixion-Pholus, Klotho-Haumea, Eurydike-Thereus, and Asbolus-Chaos). We can Trust (Eurydike) our Ability to wrestle Bears (Thereus). And we can Trust our Recent Double Rebirth…

A Significant New Life Chapter Began (asteroid Klotho enters Scorpio) at 4:16 am PDT 26 August. Scorpio doesn’t mess around. It’s Fearlessly dedicated to Getting to the Bottom of Things. What Things? Since it’s on the cusp, it’s the same chart as the 22 August Full Moon. In that chart, it’s blocking for dwarf planet Haumea, another Strong Rebirth Signal. Pele’s daughter Haumea doesn’t make it to Scorpio, though, turning Backwards in January 2022 two arc-seconds shy of the Cusp of Scorpio. Its dallying delays Haumea’s flow of hot lava into Scorpio till mid-November 2022. Klotho has already crossed Haumea, though, Beginning a New Cycle on 14 August, a few minutes past 12 am PDT, in 28 Libra, “A person becoming aware of spiritual forces surrounding and assisting them.” The four-year Klotho-Haumea Cycle is about Rebirth upon Rebirth. We’re just getting started.

The other Powerful Allies are in the Dumb-Luck Blessings (Grand Trine) that also Touches the Mercury-Karma node. The Allies here are Fearlessness (the Sedna Station itself) and Confidence (dwarf planet Chariklo). If Doubt comes up, Let It Go immediately. You know we’re right about this. Business as Usual is rapidly making this whole Planet look like a Martian Desert. By the time Musk and Bezos get there, Mars will look Lush by comparison to Earth. That’s why Gaia threw a well-deserved fifth wave of the Moronavirus at us.

Finally, dwarf planet Cyllarus demands our Attention as it makes the Grand Trine into a Kite, with itself at the Top. Cyllarus, along with asteroid Requiem (Honoring Death) dropped in to Complete two Vacancies in the Full Moon chart, filling a Grand Sextile and a Grand Cross. He completes the Storyboard for the Sedna Station. Herakles, or Hercules, had a Zeus-given assignment to help Rid the World of Threats to the Patriarchy, especially the Mysteries left over from the Matriarchy. On his journey to this end, he bunked with the unsuspecting Centaur Pholus.

Pholus had Responsibility for safekeeping the Sacred Wine of the Centaurs, and while Pholus was out shopping at Emporos Iosif’s, Herakles Opened the unhidden Sacred Wine. Did he know what he was doing? Probably. The scent carried, and the Centaurs immediately went mad and starting killing each other and everyone in sight. Pholus, true to his habit of ignoring consequences, got dead by picking up a poison dart that had killed someone else, and clumsily dropping it on his foot. Chiron (Despair and Miracles) got the Wound that would eventually make him give up his Immortality. The third corner of the Grand Trine is Centaur Chariklo, Chiron’s wife. And distraught Centaur Hylonome (Codependence and Self-Sovereignty) killed herself with the same spear that killed her Centaur-Stud Lover. That Lover was Cyllarus.

If you need a Program, We are the Centaurs in this story, and Predatory Capitalism is Herakles. We’re killing each other as we help kill the Planet, and we don’t even know why.

Rebirth II

We mentioned in the last post, “Rebirth is our next big Station event, as dwarf planet Haumea, named after Pele’s Hawaiian Fertility-Goddess Daughter, Stands Still in the Sky at 10:45 am PST 26 January 2021, in 29 Libra. We’re already immersed in its Energy” and “It may be a Help to [to replace olde Karma with new Patterns] while asteroid Klotho is lit up, such as this week or the week of 15 February, as that should make it much easier to Begin a New and Better Pattern to replace the olde Karmic one.” We recommend this week because the Haumea Station Merges with (Conjoins) Klotho.

A process we recommended in that post for Replacing olde Karma was… “Consciousness is our Get Out of Fate Free card. Well, almost Free. We have to not only bring our Fate or Karma into Consciousness, but then we have to Notice when it begins to recur, Choose to Do or Invite something different, and then Repeat many times till it becomes the Dominant Habit.” And of course before we do that we need to Own our Karma. If we’re still a Victim to our Karma, still Blaming it on someone else or the Universe or some Curse, we’ve at least Identified our Karma, but we haven’t Realized that this is a Free-Will Planet, and therefore that the only person Responsible for our Karma is ultimately us.

And our Karma does derive from a Curse, a self-administered Curse. We Initiate Karma with a Decision or Vow or Oath or Promise that Limits our Freedom. When circumstances Change and that Decision is no longer useful to us, we may not remember that it was Us who made the Choice, especially if a Lifetime or two has elapsed between the Decision and the new circumstances. Once a Choice has become cast in Stone, it may be difficult to sweet-talk it into returning to Clay. If we’ve Owned it and persistently Worked to Replace it and it still follows us around like a Puppy, we may need a Soul Retrieval or other Shamanic Intervention, a big Ego Death, or even a New Lifetime to help find it a new home.

There’s no sense in which this is about Blame. In many cases, our Original Choice was the only one we had. Depending on our Birth Order, in much of European History we may have had to Choose between Starvation, Banditry, and Pledging Fealty to the Duke or to a Monastic Order. And seldom through Herstory does any Religion espouse the Inclusiveness which I was taught that Christ recommended. With the possible exception of Buddhism, Religions have been mostly Us-Versus-Them institutions. Once we Allow ourselves to be Taught Us-Versus-Them, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy and it becomes increasingly difficult to even find a Reason to not consider it Good Karma.

The other critical issue to remember around Karma is that it’s only our own Karma that concerns us. Once we get into They Have to Change territory, we’re Lost. Yes, it’s the Ego’s natural Duty to Protect us from others who would Harm us, but the Urge for them to Change is always a Projection of our closet Unhappiness with ourself. We need to be Unconditionally Loving with all of our Projections, but we also need to withdraw those tentacles and apply the suction to our own Integrity. Nothing Changes till we Accept it Unconditionally, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want to Change it.

The Stationary Haumea and it’s mate Klotho have only one Stressful Angle, an Isolated Square or Challenge (the red line), from asteroid Moira, from Mother Fate Herself. Note that Fate is Feminine, as it Connects people. The idea that Anything is inherently Good or Bad is an obvious Either/Or, tautologically a property of the Observing Dualistic Mind and not a property of the Observed Thing. Every bit of our Fate – Karma – is a fantastic Skill. We just need to be able to Choose Otherwise when Otherwise would be more appropriate to the task. The only negative about Fate is that it’s Frozen and needs to be Thawed. When we’re first Learning to Unlearn a Karmic “Skill,” we Reject it entirely because we need to Clear Space for something else. Once we’ve Melted the hardwired Connection and replaced Reacting with Responding, we can begin to appreciate it for the Skill that it is and use it – when it’s appropriate.

The Haumea Station chart…

…does have one Major Challenge (T-Square, the red triangle). What a “coincidence” that the focus of that T-Square is none other than asteroid Karma. As our Chief Asteroid Officer used to say, “You can’t make this stuff up.” The base of the T-Square is even more “coincidental” – asteroid Nemesis (Converting Guilt to Ego Death) and dwarf planet Sedna (Converting Fear to Power), or, before we Heal the Wounds, Guilt and Fear. In other words, it’s our Karmic Guilt and Fear that are our Greatest Opportunity to Replace. The Sedna story also contains significant threads of Anger, Intimidation, and Abuse of Power. Come to think of it, it’ll be a good time to work on Healing our PTSD from the last four years.

The core Configuration in the Haumea Station chart is a Square Fez – a trapezoid with Square (red, 3 Signs) sides, a Trine (blue, 4 Signs) bottom, and a Sextile (blue, 2 Signs) top (it’s on its side here, with its top to the left). A Square Fez is composed of two Major Tricolors and two Minor Tricolors. A Tricolor combines Stress (red, Square), Grace (blue, Trine or Sextile), and Curiosity (green, Quincunx). In a Tricolor we Liberate the Grace from the Stress by Failing to Anal-yze the Confusion inherent in the Curiosity. For instance, if we can leave the relationships between Fear (Sedna) and Rebirth (Haumea-Klotho), and between Fate (Moira) and Karma (Karma) as Mysteries instead of Analyzing them, we Liberate the Grace between Fate and Fear and between Karma and Rebirth, thereby avoiding the Stress that would Otherwise prevail between Fate and Rebirth and between Fear and Karma. Easy, eh?

In a word (or several), in this blog we’ve been considering Fate and Karma to be more or less synonymous. But this chart tells us that, at least for this week, we need to consider the concepts and Realities of Fate and Karma to have Subtle and Occult (which means Hidden) Differences in multidimensional Reality. Being limited by our Intellect to two Dimensions, we just don’t know, other than through our Intuition, what else may Complicate their Relationship. We can Solicit our Intuition by PIAVAing – Praying, Intending, Asking, Visualizing, Affirming, or any of many other forms of Magnetic Manifestation that didn’t make it into the acronym (visit the link for more).

For instance, we might request, “Great Spirit, please download Important Subtle and Occult Information to me about the Mysterious Relationship between Fate and Karma.” Then we’d have to Change the Subject and wait for the Information to download while we have our Attention focused on something else. If we don’t Change the Subject, our existing Paradigm will constrain the Information we might Receive. This Information would be relevant for us alone, and only in the current situation. But it would Allow us to Replace the potential Stresses (between Fear and Karma and between Rebirth and Fate) with the Graces embedded in the Fez (between Fear and Fate and between Karma and Rebirth).

The chart also informs us that there’s a Subtle and Hidden Relationship (Quincunx) between Fear and Rebirth that we may not Grok. We have to Avoid “Left-Braining” that, and PIAVA that our “Right Brain” pick up the Information, maybe with something like “God/Goddess, Creator of All Things, I Command that I Experience the Deep Mysteries in the Multidimensional and Unitary Relationship between Rebirth and Fear!” After a Command like that we’d probably want to go into Meditation.
