Consciousness Expansion II

December 23, 2018

The 23 December (7pm PST) Juno Station (21 Taurus) chart looks like this…

Its main feature is a Grand Cross (the red square), which occurs when four planets are more or less evenly spaced around the Zodiac.  While a Grand Cross is made up of four T-Squares (the four overlapping big red triangles), and a T-Square Challenges us to become Adept at something, a Grand Cross is usually a little easier because, being Balanced, the Lessons usually aren’t as Difficult.  Also, the Challenges are frequent and interrelated, so with additional and more varied practice, we’re likely to become Adept sooner – and particularly Adept at Multi-Tasking.

The four T-Squares here focus on…

  • Eris (Emerging from Denial)
  • Moon-Moira (Learning to Choose our Emotions)
  • Aletheia-Pallas (Accepting the Truth about how well our Boundaries serve us)
  • Pluto-Chariklo (Having to Confront our lack of Self-Confidence)

I’m sure every one of you could write a short play about someone Getting Their Consciousness Expanded (that’s Juno after all) by having to deal with the likes of…

Realizing (Eris) that their Life is being Sabotaged by lack of Self-Confidence (Pluto-Chariklo), Learning to Recognize the Emotions that Trigger their Self-Doubt (Moon-Moira), and Setting Boundaries to Prevent these Emotions from Fragmenting their Personality (Aletheia-Pallas)

…or something like that.  I’m sure most of us could write a short story about when we’ve gone through this process ourselves, which we’ve probably done many times.  Like when the school bully called us names that hurt, and our Mentors encouraged us to find alternatives to running home in tears or taking a swing and getting our ass kicked.

Sticks and stones and all that, pretty fundamental stuff, but I’m sure you can think of far more subtle parallels.  It would Behoove us to think up current situations where Certain Emotions Challenge our Ability to Keep our Act Together, as every astrological adventure is an Opportunity to make Life flow more smoothly, and this one is no exception.  If we could become Conscious of those Emotions and Learn new Responses to them, chances are we wouldn’t just be Expanding our Consciousness, but also Letting Go of our Karma.

For instance, what Triggers Anxiety for us?  Nothing is Manifested into Hardcopy Reality without first being Broadcast as Energy – this is the Power of PIAVAing.  What Anxiety does is Broadcast Fear and Failure.  Without our Conscious Intervention, Fear and Failure could then be Manifest into Form.  We could recast our reading as…

Realizing (Eris) that our Life is being Sabotaged by Anxiety (Pluto-Chariklo), Learning to Recognize the Emotions that Facilitate it (Moon-Moira), and Resolving to Prevent it from Creating our Reality (Aletheia-Pallas)

…by for example, by first Tapping on it (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzVd6Ww0as4) to Acknowledge it Honestly, and then Focusing on What We Want instead of What We Don’t Want.

Another example…

Suppose we don’t Trust our Instincts (Moon-Moira) to tell us what to Eat, so we set Boundaries against the Truth (Alethiea-Pallas) of our own Instincts (Moon) in order to continue to base our Self-Confidence on our Shoulds (Pluto-Chariklo) – till we Realize (Eris) that it’s not Working

So what would we do next?  We Respond to our Realization and Expand our Consciousness to include new Possibilities.  For instance, if we Lovingly Embrace our Desires when they arise, might we have less Difficulty Moderating them, and perhaps in the process Discover what our Soul Intended to Teach our Ego in the Current Lifetime?

A Trine Bridge (blue lines) shows an Easy Path toward becoming Adept and a Quincunx Bridge (green lines) outlines a Path of Curiosity.  Both are alternatives to following the more-Challenging paths of the Squares (red lines), without abdicating the invaluable Lessons to be Learned from the Challenges.  Same Destination, very Different Routes.

The position of Stationary Juno itself makes a Trine Bridge across the Confidence/Emotion-Choice axis (Pluto/Chariklo-Moon/Moira), and a Quincunx Bridge across the Realizations/Boundaries axis (Eris-(Aletheia/Pallas).  We can Learn faster…

However, most of us are used to thinking of Curiosity as something to Resolve.  “I Wonder What…” or “I Wonder How…” is often an invitation or imperative to do research or to think about what sort of Answer we’d get if it was a Question.  True Curiosity does not seek Satisfaction; it is more than content to remain Curiosity.  Think of it like Awe or Amazement.  Like watching a Bird peck its way out of an Egg, or a Butterfly crawling out of a Chrysalis – literally a Miracle.

You’re wide-eyed and your mouth hangs open, but you don’t try to explain what’s happening or why, or to Generalize it into a Judgment, whether Good or Bad.  What if we Responded with wide eyes and a slack jaw the next time we heard someone insult us.  If they continued to insult us – if we were Safe, of course – we might even have to Laugh.  A friend used to say, “Don’t get Even, get Odd.”

Stationary Juno is also Merged with (Conjunct) asteroid Lachesis, which symbolizes Consciously Changing our Timelines.  For instance, if we were Living a Timeline of being Bullied, and we succeeded in Changing our Response to it, we would be Consciously Ending that Timeline, or at least Beginning to Consciously End it.

There’s another Configuration in the Juno-Station chart, another Mjölnir Kite like we had at the 22 December Full Moon (https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/2018/12/20/dumpster-fires/)…

When a planet sits at the Far Midpoint between two other planets that are three Signs apart, a Mjōlnir is formed.  Mjōlnir is Norwegian for “Thor’s Hammer,” the usual name for this Configuration.  We changed it because Thor’s Hammer is often confused with Ultimate Destruction, when actually it’s more about Indestructibility and Instantaneous Precision – not a sledgehammer but Lightning, or Sudden Illumination.  So we associate a Mjōlnir with Epiphanies.  When there’s also a fourth planet at the Near Midpoint, the Mjōlnir becomes a Mjōlnir Kite.

The Mjōlnir Kite reinforces our earlier interpretations of the Juno Station – Epiphanies about our Mission and our Held Emotions (North and South Nodes).  We would normally rather Die than Feel our Held Emotions, as our Experiences in Parallel Lives cause us to strongly associate them with Dying.  But we can’t proceed toward our Mission in the current Lifetime without first Learning to Embrace our Held Emotions.  So the Aletheia-Pallas Conjunction in the Juno-Station Grand Cross is also about Relaxing the Boundaries which keep our Held Emotions at bay.

The Square (red line) in the Mjōlnir is between Neptune (Confusion) and Mercury-Jupiter (Precociousness).  The Juno Station is about Growth in Consciousness, and this Square Illuminates the classic impediment to Growth – regarding Confusion as a sign that we need to struggle mightily to Understand!  Actually, when we Believe we’ve Understood why we’re Confused, we’ve just Quashed our Growth!

Our Concepts about What Is and What Isn’t Possible form a Cage that we’re trapped inside of.  Confusion arises when one of our Limiting Beliefs becomes Open for Questioning.  But if we Intellectualize it (Jupiter-Mercury), we’ll invariably Reinforce our Limiting Concepts, because those are the raw material for our thoughts.  Like Curiosity, we need to Let Confusion Be.  If we regard Confusion as an Emotion, and just Feel it, Embrace it, Enjoy it, our Consciousness will Grow on its own, naturally, without Effort.

PIAFA III

October 19, 2017

I used to write code for University research projects, and forty years ago it would take me about two weeks to shift my Assemblage Point from writing code to doing astrology and back again.  Gradually I worked the Gap between my two hemispheres down to a few minutes.  Now it’s back up again.  I don’t write a lot of code these days, and the shift from my “straight” jobs to astrology is more about Yintegrity (What I Want to Do, When) than Yangtegrity (What I Need to Do Now if I want to eat).

But there’s now a Gap between these Channeled readings that we’ve been quoting, and everything else, between 5D and 3D.  Not just that I have to get a breather between the Channelings and else, but also that I need to stop and take a break frequently while I’m reading the Channelings.  Writing this blog is like that too.  It’ll flow for a while, then I’ll finish a thought or get too many thoughts open at once, and my mind goes “Tilt” and I’ll have to take a break.

Ten days ago I tried something that Natalie Glasson recommended, and I’m now finding the results to be very remarkable.  We wrote about it in in PIAFA II (https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/2017/10/09/piafa-ii/)…

“I hesitated to try this one, Yes-Butting that it might blow my head off, but I’ve found it gentle and useful…

https://www.omna.org/accelerating-mastery-andromedans/

“I’d never previously followed the Andromedans in this Timeline.  Fascinating that, after requesting a download into my Crown Chakra, it gave me a short but unmistakable whiff of something I haven’t smelled in fifty years.”

Since then, by Imagining that I’m Floating out of my Physical Vehicle via the Crown, I’ve been able to jump directly to what seems to be my 5D Self and Ask for Guidance on difficult issues.  The Guidance arrives quickly and seems very good.  Tellingly, it’s not been the sort of ideas that my mind or Ego would generate on its own – the Guidance has been much more comprehensive and Powerful.

I’ve since Requested, following…

“With a request, we, the Andromedans, will place an orb of our light of a purple, violet and turquoise colour into one of your chakras.

…that these kind folks place one of their lovely Orbs into my Heart Chakra, and a few hours ago I also Requested that one be placed in my Solar Plexus Chakra, intending to fill them all eventually.  The Andromedans recommend space between the Meditations wherein we Request these Orbs, and I’ve been waiting several days between Requests, which seems effective, giving me the Opportunity to Practice with each new Orb.

We’re used to moving “up” through the Crown Chakra, and that feels right, but remember that the Fifth Dimension surrounds and interpenetrates the Third, so when I’ve been Leaving my Vessel via the Heart, I just move “out” rather than “up.”  When I go up through my Crown, it feels like I’m emerging out of the Ground into a higher World.  But when I’m sitting up and I go out through the Heart, it feels a lot like visiting the interpenetrating Faerie Realms, which I Believe is appropriate.

I recommend this highly; it’s the most effective way to access 5D that I’ve yet encountered. 

Prior to this glorious Rebirth-into-Unconditional-Love (Haumea-Hopi-Karma) New Moon (see previous post, and Kelley Hunter’s very apt description of it at http://heliastar.com/cosmic-news/birth-and-depth/), we begin two more New Cycles.  Initiating a New Cycle is like taking a hot shower; we slough off Old, worn-out Energies, and begin anew – to the extent that we aren’t in Resistance to the New and Attached to the Old.  The New Cycles are…

  • Makemake Initiates Venus in 4 Libra on 17 October (6am PDT).
  • Jupiter Initiates Mercury in 2 Scorpio on 18 October (2am PDT).

The Venus-Makemake Cycle is about “Feelizing,” the Emotional equivalent of Visualizing (hence PIAFA), and the Mercury-Jupiter Cycle is about Blowing our mind, or more gently, Expanding our thinking.  Related to that fifty-year-old aroma perhaps, and certainly to the Third Chakra.  Venus-Makemake is also about Manifestation that’s aligned with our Values – when you’re Creating and you smell Guilt, you’ve probably encountered an obsolete Value that’s Asking to be Cleared.

The New Venus-Makemake Feelizing Cycle is about (4 Libra) “Around a campfire a group of young people sit in spiritual communion.”  Manifesting in 5D is more like mixing paint or growing plants, than hammering boards together or sculpting clay.  We Focus our Intention and Invite in the Energies that will do the actual, Organic, Creating.  Not to diminish our Practice at Skills and Handicrafts; they hone our Visualization and Feelization immensely, and contain their own Joy.

The New Mercury-Jupiter Mind-Blowing Cycle is about (2 Scorpio) “A delicate bottle of perfume lies broken, releasing its fragrance.”  Delicate is the operative word here, as our Archetypal Habits of thinking are not easily dislodged.  I have to continually remind myself to Focus my Attention on Outcomes, not on Mechanisms.  I need Miracles, and the Mechanisms I already know about won’t supply them.  But if I can allow that delicate fragrance to waft into the Organic Creation process, maybe…

Both Cycles span about a year and share the same chart…

Salient features (of the chart and the Cycles)…

  • We’ll be Learning to Poor-Sweetheart our Suffering more quickly (Chiron Quintile Yod on North Node and Mercury-Jupiter – light orange wedge).
  • We’ll be faced with Choosing between our Old mental Patterns and the Truth of the Life Force – which means that whenever we encounter a diminution of our Life Force (such as an illness or Discouragement), look for a Limiting Belief that’s blocking our Vitality (Varuna-Aletheia T-Square on Moira and Mercury-Jupiter).
  • It’s The Life Force that does the Creating; we only Personalize it so we can Attach our Ego to it.  When you encounter difficulty Manifesting, PIAVA a “#MeToo” – it’s the residue of Abuse that makes you Feel Unworthy of Accepting the Creation.  Get Clear about the Abuse (OR10-Nessus Finger of God on the Sextile between Varuna-Aletheia and Venus-Makemake, and interlocking Venus-Makemake Finger of God on OR10-Nessus and Moira).
  • The key element is Choice.  We’re establishing a whole new set of Patterns where we Choose to Surrender to the Life Force, to what Mother Gaia Wants to Create, rather than trying to force the Manifestation into our Ego’s parameters.  We paint the picture of What We Want, we Trust that we’re being Guided in Her name, and we Accept the differences between What We Wanted and What’s Been Created, as Teachings for us (Moira Finger of God on Klotho and Venus-Makemake).
  • We need Curiosity and Wonder to overcome our initial Hesitation to Create because of our Fear that we will be Punished for it.  Our Forbidden Genius Ixion isn’t Lit Up in this chart, but he is in the coincident New Moon chart; the same Abuse that Shamed our Genius is what blocks our Wand from Creating Magic.  “I Wonder what will unblock my Willingness to Create” is in order (Klotho Square OR10-Nessus Quincunx Aletheia-Varuna Trine Klotho Tricolor).
  • The Most Important Thing here is Timing; PIAVA to Know Intuitively and Immediately when your Old thought Patterns are inhibiting Life Energy (Mercury-Jupiter Septile Saturn).
