Wholistic perspectives.

The Eclipse has passed and the energies are adjusting and stabilising – slowly. The effect can last for months so let the leaves fall off the tree when their time is complete. [ the season of autumn has begun early in Ozland]. Rest lots.

I am writing this to follow on from the astroblog. We humans are learning to connect the left and right brain hemispheres and activate new parts of the brain – it’s all in a lifetime’s work during the crossing of the Ages and quantum leaps in evolution. It’s fun being on earth, alive in body and soul conscious now huh?

I made a reference in the astroblog to the connection between this eclipse and the eclipse last August. The Sky and Telescope magazine has provided an astronomical pic of just this.

  gs-eclipse-compare-r.jpg 

Astronomy monitors and calculates the stellar events and portrays them (these days) with stunning pics.

 Astrology describes the personal journey of the effects of these stellar cycles and events for us folk growing in consciousness.

It is ultimately the combination of both that enable us to merge both left and right functions of the brain (calculation and understanding). This combination also facilitates us in connecting the inner and outer human experiences. 

Further support of this:

Here we have a pic of the eclipse taken from a point as it is occurring along the path of Serbia, Croatia and the newly created independent nation of Kosovo. The news items will present you with pics of raging demonstrations and riots as the people experience instability and insecurity within their personal sense of identity and belonging. The lower chakras and deepest instincts are activated during eclipses because our biological bodies are linked directly to stellar events and the greater cosmos. Simply put, we (humans) are made of star material and the stars and planets affect us!

This eclipse is ‘out with the old, in with the new’ on the Pisces Sun, Virgo moon axis. This axis, described as spirit (Pisces) into matter (Virgo), is a powerful anchoring of incoming spiritual energies in the few minutes of a magnetic corridor formed by the sun/moon opposition. The photographer, Ivica Skokic, chose to take the pic with the angel and in so doing, framed beautifully, the abstract archetypal understanding we have of the guardian angel (spirit) protecting the temporary loss of light (sun/moon eclipse). Photographers and artists often combine the left and right hemispheres. The technical has to be accurate (left brain) and the artistic comprehension (right brain) grasped – sometimes in a split second – at the same time.

Meanwhile, the USA chose the exact time of the eclipse to launch a missile to bring down the reconnaissance satellite that was failing to respond to their instructions from the ground base.  Trigger time  as the article describes was to capture a window of only a few seconds which also happened to be the same time as the eclipse. I do not know enough to understand why this was so … but I am sure there is a reason. Perhaps it is simply that during an eclipse there is a null zone magnetically speaking created by the sun/moon opposition: A void or vortex which perhaps facilitates such accuracy. To be sure, there will be an underlying reason for the retrieval of the satellite because eclipses always reveal something previously hidden from our consciousness. Whatever … It worked!

Update for the next week:

Gorgeous early morning displays by the inner planets which influence and enhance our personal development:

webvic08_feb27.jpg

 Between Sunday 24th and Wednesday 27th February, Saturn is opposite the Sun, which means every time you look at the sun you can be aware that Saturn is covering your back and supporting you.

Mars in Gemini will be in exact alignment through to Sagittarius and the Galactic Core on Tuesday 26th February which will facilitate receptivity on the plane of the human intellect. Silence and deep inner listening will enhance the accessiblity.

Record what you can of ideas, insights – those gentle, subtle and profound realisations.

An excellent few days to ground spiritual insights and open the mind, heart and body to the light of the eternal spirit. I invite the world servers and light workers across the globe to use these days to connect us all and the heavens to the earth with the Great Invocation and/or the prayer of your choice.

It is indeed a time to be both personal and worldly, spirit and matter at the same time! This is a stellar outer framework which is described in the esoterica as the axis of incarnation. It is the Celtic cross, the Rosacrucian cross, the ‘angles’ of the natal chart … it is being here now and conscious. 

Blessings!

Thanks to Sky & Telescope for their pics. The gallery of people’s pics of the eclipse from across the globe – is a banquet.

Old ways and new consciousness…

100_1470.jpg 

This week is the second Eclipse for the year and this one links back to 28 August and 11 September 2007.

It is a time to withdraw a little and find the inner self again.

Astroblog

We have changed so much in our consciousness that to speak of fate, faith, destiny and karma* seems old fashioned: yet the astrology of this week is traditionally highlighting these areas of our journeys/archetypal understanding.

Now, this week, is a time to open to precipitation from the heavens, to let the radar of the Higher Self find the connection to our creative Source, to the eternal spirit.

The 16 year cycle of Pluto in Capricorn has only just begun – but already the political landscape is changing: Kosovo is celebrating independence; Pakistan is claiming back its democracy, East Timor is in upheaval with its democratic leader injured from an attempted assassination and Fidel Castro is handing over his leadership in Cuba. Listening to the news we hear the words: “Let us put it all behind us and move on…” being applied to a variety of situations.

 Aaaah! Sun in gentle Pisces! What a relief – and here comes the much needed rain for our hot and parched kingdoms …

 Blessings!

Enjoy the dawn-ings

hilary-stripp-sunflower-08.JPG

 There is a wonderful dawn vista to behold if you are enjoying the ambience of early morning walks. Venus and Jupiter are rising in the South East just prior to the sun heralding the day. They will gradually move closer together and on February 4th, will be joined by the Moon forming a triangle of loveliness.

 

Australia day (long weekend) is over and the strange phenomena of Leap Year reminds us of the folly of human intellect. [I'm one month early!]

So much , so little, so much …

Blessings,

Letting go of the old and welcoming the new…

 

copy-of-dscf0876.JPG  

 The astrology at the moment seems to be giving us small homeopathic doses of what is pending on a much larger scale.”

 Blog Posting looks at the dawning new era and the closing of the old: Capricorn and Aquarian influences. The Quality of Life seeking ethics, integrity and honesty within group conscious and humanitarianism. Spiritual gifts of prophecy and intuition. Planetary Initiation for five years to 2012. The 5th Kingdom of Souls.

New year’s Eve; Personal growth experience with Mars in Cancer, teetering before retro into Gemini; Venus entering Sagittarius; animal kingdom nervous and skittish.

Holy Sprinkles and Awareness

Greetings and Many blessings. This posting looks at Awareness: sentience; human and Planetary initiation;  UN and Animal Welfare; Summer Solstice; Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day.

Astrology is: Mars and Full Moon in Cancer opposite Sun and Jupiter in Capricorn; Node in Aquarius; Venus in Scorpio square Neptune in Aquarius; Moon in Leo; Yod and Mystical Rectangle. Mercury in Capricorn.

Astronomy is Full Moon and Mars; Ursid meteor showers and Comet Tuttle emerging from Polaris.

http://www.dawnings.blogspot.com

Our Community Action project http://www.bayvigil.org is slowly emerging into our local part of the world and is being warmly welcomed and encouraged. It is very much 7th Ray in its design and appropriately concerns a Bay (Cancer) to be protected from interference (Mars). Big Industry and Corporate thinking is wanting to expand (Jupiter in Capricorn) but this is not the time nor the place.  These environmental issues will be very much part of our lives for the next few years until we develop a way of fulfilling our role of stewardship of the planetary world and taking care of our species (humanity).  

We have an intensely emotional and personal Christmas emerging. Earth changes and strong weather patterns along with basic instincts and needs arising to be considered.

Here’s wishing you a Holy, peaceful and inspiring Christmas.

Holy chuckles…

Thresholds

My Blog posting this week is rather long and I therefore recommend you print it out and keep it for further reference. We are closing off one cycle and beginning another. By the Solstice, the next cycle will have begun.

The astrology references are: Venus in Scorpio and Mars in Cancer; the moon in Pisces then Aries;  Saturn retrograding in Virgo; the conjuncting of Mercury then the Sun with the Galactic Core; the conjuncting of Mercury and then the Sun with Pluto; The node shift from Pisces to Aquarius; Jupiter’s entry into Capricorn.  Planetary and humanity’s initiation.

http://www.dawnings.blogspot.com

I am also creating a new site: Bay Vigil as an expression of my own small contribution to the world need. Posting re this shall be updated here asap.

[* Update 18th December: bayvigil.org is born!]   http://www.bayvigil.org

Find the inner central core of peace with one’s own connection with the Universal (and Holy) spirit from which all that is old may dissolve in time and all that is to emerge, shall be birthed. 

The meeting of our hearts brings Love into the world;

The meeting of our minds brings Light into the world;

the merging of our Spirits is our calling… 

We are here, Now.

Blessings !

Bay Vigil

 Rye beach August 2005 

Welcome through the vortex to the next stage of our journey! Wow, and phew! Amazing amount of energy around. It is best to utilise it in some way. Let it flow on with blessings. 

Tomorrow the moon enters Aquarius and aligns with Chiron then on Saturday 15th December 2007 the moon conjuncts Neptune in Aquarius. If you are roaming around outside in the balmy summer night – you may get to see the annual Geminid showers.* They will be on show from midnight to dawn especially the  dates of 14th and 15th December. Holy Sprinkles!

Our new PM has just declared passionately to the world at the Bali Conference on Climate Change, that we are stewards of this planet and that’ we have no where else to go’.

We here in Victoria are very concerned about the proposed dredging of our beloved Port Phillip and Westernport bays for short term monetary gain. The Blue Wedges Coalition* is taking the matter to the Federal Court on 10th January 2008. On 8th January 2008, I am calling all lovers of our Bays to a Vigil of Light. May we surround the Bays with people holding torches and lanterns to declare and demonstrate our concern. The letter below says it all. Please share this call for responsible stewardship of our beautiful planet.

To the Victorian Government:

We, the people, have presented you with a mandate to STOP your plan to dredge Port Phillip Bay. Your press statement explains that

Melbourne Ports wants to expand further. You say we have enjoyed 17 consecutive years of growth. This tells us that the dredging for expansion is NOT a necessity. Dr David Suzuki travelled the world to speak with many of us about sustainability.

How many people’s livelihoods are you prepared to ruin? Who stands to gain? Not the marine life, nor the swimmers, the sailors, the fisherfolk, the tourist trades, the walkers and joggers around the bay, the estates along the shoreline, the children who play at the water’s edge, the divers or the marine scientists.

One hundred years of toxic silt and sludge stirred up and redumped in our Bay – for monetary greed? Two years of non-stop noise and vibration from a monstrous depth machining process will ruin the peaceful ambience and drive many people insane. The widening and deepening of the channel WILL change the tides.

Why is this proposal still being relentlessly pursued? 

We, the people, have said and still say, NO to the dredging of Port Phillip Bay.

Our PM has just spoken to the World Conference in Bali about our human stewardship of this planet. The Port of Melbourne and Victorian Government officials are included in that stewardship. You KNOW the consequences – that is why you have pushed through legislation to ensure you cannot be sued for damages to people’s livelihoods. Fair Go Mate!

You are on notice.

On the night of 8th January, we shall line the shores from Portsea to Queenscliff in a Vigil of Lights to show the world we care.
