You start­ed 9 months ago and you start­ed in Fire…Aries is always your begin­ning, the time when what was the un-man­i­fest became man­i­fest, where your non-being became your being­ness. You, as Spir­it Desired to move into the Spaces of Space again, and what you came to be was through Spir­it descend­ing and join­ing with Mat­ter. These were your first delight­ful steps in this Dance of Life, your In-Spirit-ation…

And your jour­ney con­tin­ued as Spir­it mov­ing into Mat­ter through Fire, Earth, Air and Water, then again as Fire, Earth, Air and Water…and now…

Now you come back one more time to Fire…You make one last turn of this Ele­men­tal Wheel before you start again in a new Astro­log­i­cal year…This, your Cycling-Spi­ral-Dance of Spir­it and Mat­ter, is the nev­er-end­ing jour­ney of your Becom­ing the Becoming.

Now you emerge, out of the Waters, out from Scor­pio where you encoun­tered the Mys­ter­ies of Life and Death, of Union and Sep­a­ra­tion and you expe­ri­enced, you felt… some­thing Pro­found…And so you must seek now to Under­stand…“What, what was That, What Is This?”

So, the Sun moves into Sagit­tar­ius, the third and final Fire Sign and you return to the realm of Ideals…to the Halls of Wis­dom where you look to Law, to Phi­los­o­phy and to Reli­gion to explain…You turn to the Age­less Voic­es that are behind all the of these, the Peren­ni­al Phi­los­o­phy known and passed down from the begin­ning as the Ancient Teach­ings.

You seek to relate what you have expe­ri­enced to some­thing beyond your own expe­ri­ence, to put it into a larg­er con­text and so find Mean­ing. You seek to put your life, your dis­cov­er­ies and mys­ter­ies, your tri­umphs and defeats, you seek to under­stand it All. You turn your gaze out­ward, seek­ing the con­nec­tion to those who have come this way before you (and they have).…and you find that they have left you guid­ance, com­fort…Wis­dom. It is a gift, a bless­ing and you must do your part too…

And so you can build upon this, upon their gift of Under­stand­ing so that you may stand with and lean upon those who came before you…and so advance The Becom­ing a lit­tle bit more. But you also add…you add your expe­ri­ence, your under­stand­ing to this Greater Under­stand­ing and so it becomes even greater still…This is your sto­ry, your Jour­ney of Becom­ing the Becoming.

So turn ’round now, round that round and acknowl­edge the great Sac­ri­fices that were made to give this Gift to you. Know, that you must make your sac­ri­fice too as you get clos­er and clos­er, clos­er to the cross­ing point between the dark­ness and the Light. And as the days grow ever dark­er, as the shad­ows deep­en around you, let the Light with­in burn ever brighter, your Light that will nev­er go out…

Turn now, look at Your Sun who stands in this spe­cial part of Space…Then look beyond and know that behind that Solar space you are look­ing out into the heart of your Galaxy…you look out into the ori­gins of Life and Spir­it in this Cos­mic Wheel­ing won­der we call our Milky Way…It is at this time of the year that your Sun is aligned with the Cen­ter of your Galac­tic home.

Turn and know that you are look­ing homeward…that there is a nev­er-ceas­ing, stream­ing of Life-Con­scious­ness-Spir­it going out and in from that Cen­ter, from the One to all the ones of the One and beyond…

Bow your head down…Feel your Spir­it soar…Sing your Celes­tial Song.…Dance…

You are a Shin­ing One…

Shine On!
