Quantum Jump 10

July 19, 2018

Well, we don’t seem to be able to escape this Quantum Jump Province yet, which is fine, or at least, it Is What It Is.  More of our Big Rebirth, in other words.  20-21 July features

  • The Station of Eris (6am PDT) at 25 Aries (which I somehow failed to notice until just now) – meaning that we might encounter Insights about the cornerstones that keep our Limiting Beliefs in place.
  • The Initiation of Sappho by Lachesis (10am PDT) at 25 Taurus, “A vast public park”; the Cycle is about Choosing What to Love about Ourself, begging the question, “Why would we Choose NOT to Love anything about Ourself?”  The Degree says that Choosing to Love ALL of Ourself will open up a Vast Public Park for us to play in.
  • The Station of asteroid Karma (2pm PDT) at 1 Sagittarius – more likelihood of Insights about the Edges between Who We Are and Who We Think We Are, and, since Karma is now full-time in Sagittarius (Letting Go), we may find it easier to Let Go of our Self-Judgments.
  • The Initiation of Nemesis by Sedna (5am) at 28 Taurus, “A woman, past her ‘change of life,’ experiences a new love”; when we Claim Fear as Power, we have no need to Fear Ego Death of any sort, including Ego Deaths that Challenge the deepest levels of our Identity both Personally and Culturally.

Notice that if we use six-Degree birth-chart Sensitivity, which is appropriate since Rebirth is what we’re talking about, these all make significant Dances with each other.  In fact, except for a Vacancy at the end of Aquarius or beginning of Pisces, we have a “Grand Unx,” or twelve planets more or less equidistant from one another, which is the Ideal situation for Breaking Up Old Habit Patterns, Karmic or otherwise.

The Vacancy is filled by the Fixed Star Deneb Algedi in the Mertail of Capricorn.  Bernadette says (Brady’s Book of Fixed Stars, pp.302-4) “the law-giving, justice-oriented god trying to civilize his people is probably the best [interpretation], since this would reflect its long history.  This is the star of the person who is a benefic ruler, one who is trying to use wisdom and knowledge to protect and help the people around them.”  Then she goes on to cite Mother Teresa as her example.

Wouldn’t it be great if such a person would step forward to save us from Sinki into Hel, now that the Antichrist is so clearly and blatantly illustrating the Exact Opposite.  Remember that in the Unconscious, which does not do Duality, Opposites are Equal.  Or do you suppose that the Antichrist was just playing Br’er Rabbit to his friend’s Br’er Bear?  That’s too funny.

Quantum Jump 6

July 10, 2018

The 12 July New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse (8pm PST) highlights the Challenges we’re having with this Big Rebirth we just went through with the Haumea (Rebirth) and Jupiter (Expansion) Stations.  Not only does the Eclipse (Illumination) Square the still-Stationary Haumea, it Opposes Klotho (Beginning New Timelines), which Conjoins BZ509 (Transcendence) and Pluto (Compulsive Trance-Reformation)…

That’s a bundle.  Does the Universe provide any clues or helpmates?  Yes, several.  Most of them require Sustained Curiosity (Quincunx Bridges), though one is an outright Gift, a Trine Bridge.  However, this Easy Path lies through Nemesis (Ego Death), Lachesis (Choosing the Length of our Timelines), and Sappho (Self-Love).  So, for starters we’d need to be Self-Loving.  Then we’d probably have to Accept Ego Deaths Self-Lovingly.  Which sounds like a “Likely,” but this is a Trine Bridge, so we can’t sell it short.

When we Choose to be Unconscious, if we have that option, we Choose to Accept our Fate.  Of course many of us Choose that Option Unconsciously.  If it sounds Weird to you to make a Choice Unconsciously, it’s because you’re Identifying with the wrong “You.”  If we aren’t Consciously Aligned with our Soul, and our Soul makes a Choice, then “We” have made the Choice, but from the Ego’s Perspective, the Choice was Unconscious. 

As Seth averred a long time ago (Jane Roberts, The Nature of Personal Reality) – and Fritz Perls agreed, if it’s in your Field, then from some Perspective, some part of “You” has Chosen it.  If you don’t want it in your Field, then “you” need to Find Out which part of “You” did Choose it, and Negotiate with them.  Often our Soul Chooses to put things in our Field, just so “we” can become Conscious of our Soul’s Intentions.  I can’t say what your Soul wants for you, but as near as I can tell at this time, mine wants me to Eschew Judgment and Respect All Things.  So my Soul shows me my Judgments and my Disrespects.

In the notion of the Fates in Greek Myths, Lachesis is the one with the tape measure.  Klotho weaves the Cloth that constitutes the Tapestry of a Timeline, and Lachesis determines the Length of the Timeline.  Finally, Atropos cuts the last thread with her Scissors, Ending the Timeline.  So the suggestion is that we Self-Lovingly Choose our own Lengths for the Ego Deaths that Clear the Space for our Rebirth.  Without masochism, I suspect we’d want our Ego Deaths to be Complete, but short in Duration.  They may never not Hurt, but we can stand Hurts if they’re short-term .

You have Beliefs and Practices that for a looong time you’ve known you’d eventually have to give up – because they interfere with What You Really Want.  They’re cheap substitutes that you’ve plugged into the Space where your Deepest Desires belong, because you couldn’t stand the Void there, and your Limiting Beliefs wouldn’t give you Permission to be Brutally Honest about your Desires.  Over time you’ve gotten Ego-Invested or Identified with your Compromises.  They are you and you are they.  But now it’s time for you to Open Up that Space for the Real Thing.

So those Identities have to exeunt stage left (Nemesis).  They have to bow out Gracefully, Lovingly (Sappho).  And you have to Choose it (Lachesis).  No one else can Choose it for you.  And it’s not about Letting it Slide till these Pretenders leave on their own.  You’ve already been waiting forever for that, and it hasn’t happened.  Not when they’re part of your Identity.  You have to Want to Achieve your Deepest Desire more than you want to keep your “temporary” substitutes.

The Sixth Step prayer reads something like…

“Dear God, I am ready for your help in removing from me the defects in my character which I now realize are an obstacle to my recovery.  Help me to continue being honest with myself and guide me toward spiritual and mental health.”

While Ego-Attachment and Addiction are similar, they aren’t quite the same, so let’s rephrase that to make it more appropriate for Identification…

“God/Goddess, Creator of All That Is, I Command your help in removing from my Field the Temporary Substitutes for What I Really Want, as I now Realize that these Substitutes are an Obstacle to my Authentic Deepest Desires.  I Command your help to maintain my Honesty with myself, and your continued Guidance toward my Mission.  It Is Done, It Is Done, It Is Done.  Thank you, God/Goddess.  Show me.”

Your Temporary Substitutes could be Emotions, Thoughts, Ideals, Actions, Beliefs, Material Objects or Goals – whatever you would Recognize as You, but which you’ve plugged into the Gap Created by the Absence of What You Really Want.  Tomorrow we’ll look at the Quincunx Bridges, as they too provide clues.
