“From the Strait of Gibraltar to Galicia, Orcas have been harassing yachts, damaging vessels and injuring crew.”

 

As we’ve mentioned, we associate Global Climate Change with the Dance between Huper Survival (dwarf planet Quaoar [our Survival Instincts]) and Huper Response (dwarf planet Pholus [the Ability and Foresight to Respond to All Possibilities]).  So far the latter is Lacking.  On the other hand, even though it’s been going on since 2014, the actual Merger (Initiation, or First Conjunction in the Cycle) doesn’t take place till 2022 – we talk more about this in Section 1 of the U R Here post.  The hope is that by February 2022 Hupers will actually Begin to give Global Climate Change the Priority it Demands, on the Scale Required.

Both Huper Survival and Huper Response are Lit Up Strongly until at least 11:20 am PDT 15 September 2020.  That’s pretty writ large out here on the Left Coast of the US.  At this point though, the Survival issues are Global but the Responses are still Local, with the mismatch putting a lot more emphasis on the Survival.  For instance, the Fires are the size of Counties, but it’s Local Fire Departments, often Volunteer Fire Departments, that are doing much of the Firefighting.  They have neither tools nor personpower to try to actually constrain the Fires, all they can do is try to save individual buildings and people, with spotty success.  Midday pictures like this one are common, where the Fires aren’t burning  – the picture isn’t doctored…

On 13 September, the symbol for Fate and Choice (asteroid Moira) moved out of the Sign of Fearlessness (Scorpio) and into the Sign of Letting Go or Burning Away the Unnecessary (Sagittarius, Spiritual Fire).  Fate is Fate only as long as we’re Unconscious about our Karma.  Once we become Conscious of our Fate, the only thing we need to do to Change it, is to Choose to do something Different.  Fate and Choice are Intimately involved with many of these charts…

For instance, in this 15 September chart of Survival and Response (Quaoar-Pholus), Fate is Merged with Transcendence (asteroid Bee-Zed, which was Stationary 4 September) in a Pattern-Breaking Relationship (Unx) with Survival-Response.  The Story is that even though Global Climate Change is orders of magnitude larger than our Span of Control, we don’t have to Surrender to it as Fate.  We can make Choices that Improve our own Future (for instance by Focusing on What We Want) and we can even make Choices that Improve the Future of Others (for instance by Teaching them to Focus on What They Want).

My Candle has burnt out!  We’ll finish looking at this Survival-Response chart tomorrow…

Self-Judgment and Self-Love V

If we temporarily de-emphasize the Grand Octile and just look at the same-Degree Angles to the Sappho Station…

…we can see that a Challenge around Action (Mars T-Square, the red triangle) pops out, and that Action is somehow an Easy Alternative (Trine Bridge, blue lines) to our Growing Pains (the Sappho-Jupiter Divide) and Spiritual Challenge (Neptune T-Square).  Before we sign up for a Yoga class (to Actively Stretch Into Expanded Self-Love) though, we may need to deal with the Action Challenge (Mars T-Square).

That Challenge is about how much we Realize that we have Choice (Moira) around the suggestion that The Most Important Thing (Saturn) is Transcending (Bee-Zed) our Need to Please Others (Hylonome).  Codependence is a very easily Defended excuse for postponing Self-Love because we were Programmed to Believe that Pleasing Others was Noble.  How old were we – maybe 2 or 3 – when we were taught to Share?

Which brings up an interesting point about those who never were taught to Share.  Could there be Epiphanies for them around their Control issues?  Probably not, but we can hope.

All of which suggests that perhaps we should Choose to Share more, with Trusted friends, around our closely held secrets and our most cherished possessions.  Boundaries are clearly involved in this Dance (Pallas-Haumea).  If there’s any Guilt (Nemesis) involved, Sharing more of ourself, when it’s Safe, would be even more Powerful.  And which suggests that it would behoove us to Stop Giving Away our Power, and Stop Giving Away anything else that Triggers our Scarcity but which we feel compelled to Share because we Should.  In fact, maybe…

The Bottom Line around Self-Love is always about Examining our “Shoulds.” 

Any discomfort in our Shoulders would underline that (Sappho Station in Gemini).  Then we can do that Yoga class (Saturn-BZ-Hylonome in Sagittarius) to start making it a Body Memory.

It may be useful to Remember that the Physical Dimension is just another Perspective on the Unitary Wholeness of Life, along with the Emotional, Spiritual, and Mental Perspectives.  Switching between these Perspectives – for instance, into the Physical to address an Emotional conundrum – often creates what appear to be Miracles.

The Call to Action (Mars T-Square) has two Easy Alternatives (Trine Bridges) – one to Breaking Oaths (Orcus) and one to Surrendering to Spirit (Neptune).  In fact the two of them make what’s called a Golden Rectangle (the big blue rectangle – it’s called “Golden” because the ratio between the long and short sides is the Golden Angle of Sacred Geometry fame).

We interpret a Golden Rectangle by Dancing with the diagonals.  We’ve already discussed the Choice-Shoulds (Moira v. Saturn-BZ-Hylonome) diagonal; the other is about Oaths and Sprituality (Orcus-Neptune).  The Key to this may simply be that Either/Ors are always Political; it’s Both/Ands that are Spiritual.  Sure, Religion can Inspire the Spiritual (Awe, Wonder, and Respect for All Things), but Religions, except in their Esoteric forms, usually boil down to a set of Rules, and often Require an Oath of Allegiance to these Either/Or Rules.

When we make a Promise or Vow or Oath that’s Either/Or, and if we don’t Betray it, we gradually Internalize it.  It becomes an Integral part of who we are, and we Accept it as a Value, forgetting that it derived not from the Heart but from the mind.  It becomes a Karmic Limitation for us in subsequent Lifetimes.  Stretching our Values (Venus-Jupiter) is part of the Sappho-Station/Total-Lunar-Eclipse Global Epiphany (Grand Octile).

Well, maybe not quite Global; the Eclipse is only visible from the Western Hemisphere, so maybe it’s Western Civilization and Colonial Supremacy that’s scheduled for Epiphany.

Truth Resides in the Compassionate Heart, not the Dualistic mind, and Truth is different for every person.  When we try to run our Life from Either/Or Values that we Learned from someone else, rather than from Both/And Values that we Discovered were True for us, we Live Falsely, constantly Betraying our True Self.  We’ll never find Self-Love there.
