Spiral
Mercury is Retrograde and we are hanging in there upside down like bats, on the underside of the Cosmic Lemniscate. Personally, I have been challenged with my modem crashing and having to revert to dial up. Adaptability is my middle name so that’s okay. It just means everything gets slowed down a bit which is a good thing. I am sometimes too easily seduced by the urgency virus that infects us humans occasionally. Creative work on the Domain has slowed down too. Yet, you now have FOUR chapters of Pendulum Edition 3, updated and available as PDF on that Page. Amazing this retro stuff – a grand time to sort out lots from the past and update to the present.
I received an email this morning about work place practises and how the crazy push/pull go-get-it mentality is fading as we rethink the Quality of Life rather than the quantity of – money, status, power, urgency, drive, ambition, approval, prestige, …all very appropriate for this phase of our celestial weather. Wonderful to see humans at last realising that we do NOT want to evolve as a slave worker species. Our heritage of aeons of evolution and progress is designed to ease the labour, not intensify it.
Mercury has re-entered Aquarius and joined the stellium there so the cognitive emphasis is once again on how we humans think. February 28th we reach the peak of Neptune in Aquarius (Human Spirit) opposing Saturn retrograde in Leo (old hierarchical patterns). There are so many interpretations of this opposition. I sense it is about bringing our dreams into reality. The old- stilted and often harsh teachings were that ‘reality’ is yuk and ‘dreams’ are fairy floss. This is an extension of a core belief that Life at its most ‘real’ is horrible and that we humans just have to wake up to it and stop dreaming and wishing for something better.
What if being real IS the ‘better’ way of being and living? Every culture and creed, every race and belief system has taught that God is Good. Then let’s choose it.We CAN choose the simpler, most caring, most efficient, most healthy and loving way of living. We CAN choose Quality of Life. We CAN choose to STOP warring and violence and greed and exploitation and corruption and dishonesty and deception.
In FACT, (reality) no-one else can choose it for us. And maybe that’s what has been happening for too long – praying and waiting for God, Goddess, angels, benevolent ET’s, Ancestor spirits, Faeries, Masters, Avatars, Messiah … to come here and DO it for us. Yes, they guide and encourage and comfort us. But we are here, now and it IS our Human choice. We CAN choose to manifest (Saturn) the Divine(Neptune) into our world. They are only ‘opposite’ looking from one end to the other. Seen from the holographic, they are just different perspectives.
These pillars of Saturn and Neptune flank a doorway of consciousness, a vortex that winds all the way through to July/August 2013. It is the closing of one cycle and the opening of the other. Each step we take, each expansion and purposeful directing of our own conscious growth, leaves behind what was and opens us to the Becoming.
The first Eclipse of the year is connecting the Pisces/Virgo axis on March 4th. That’s Sunday morning around 10.16 am AEDT here in the old Lemurian Land of Oz. We enter a mini corridor (within a larger Cosmic vortex) until September this year. The Pisces/Virgo axis is the epitome of the idea of Spirit in Matter.
How many people on the planet wear jewellery made of ‘precious’ stones? Then there are all those who have pet stones and rocks and minerals for healing. Or just think about the mineral tablets we take for health. Light crystallised into matter. How superbly organised our world of Nature is!?
The ‘discovery’ of the ‘possible’ bones of Jeshua and family is an astrological cliché. Divine synchronicity indeed. We have lots upon which to ponder until Spring (Southern hemisphere –September).
* A reminder for those who have lost track of ‘time’ … The Sojourn with ShaVrill is Saturday 3rd March to welcome us into the wormhole. Details in my newsletter file on the consultancy Page of the Domain.
