You are here to grow…

And you do this
as you learn how to weave togeth­er these threads of Ener­gy and Form, that are within
and around you, and by this most won­drous process of your Self-Unfold­ment you and your world become the “Beau­ty of
the Self-Begot­ten”, the Divine made man­i­fest in this Cos­mos, your life,
your Creation.

Today Venus, your Muse of Beau­ty and
Love encoun­ters Sat­urn, the Mas­ter of Forms and Real­i­ty, and you will find the need
to adjust again the warp and weave of your Self-Illu­mined Life. For Venus is
sweep­ing through the Ide­al­is­tic Fires of Leo, where Love is met in acts of
Chival­ry and Feal­ty, where Hon­or and Loy­al­ty are offered up by and to one
another…With Venus in Leo you wish to Love and see your­self as stand­ing upon
these foun­da­tions of Self-Respect and Hon­or, which then become expressed
through and mir­rored in the Con­sid­er­a­tions and Con­duct you should show to one
another…

But Sat­urn comes to this Plan­e­tary Joust
with anoth­er Ban­ner of Truth, he throws down the Gaunt­let of Growth and
Trans­for­ma­tion to these High and Mighty Ideals of Love and Beauty…for Saturn
rides for Scor­pio now. Sat­urn is here to remind you that your Idealistic
Prin­ci­ples of Love, your out­ward Acts of Con­sid­er­a­tion and Respect must not
flow from and fol­low mere­ly these prop­er Forms or Appear­ances of Love…Oh no!

Scor­pio demands that your love must come
from the depths of your being, root­ed in those trans­for­ma­tive feel­ings that have
been born by your encounter and Union with your own True Self, your Beloved…Which
then and only then can open the por­tal to break­ing the “Illu­sion that is Separation”. 

For
this is how you will expe­ri­ence self-tran­scen­dence and trans­for­ma­tion, by this death
and rebirth of your less­er sense of self, by know­ing Love as found­ed upon your essen­tial One­ness with one another…and that your Right­ful­ly Shared Sac­ri­fices are the Promise Keep­ers, the Foun­tain-Source and Foun­da­tion for the Greater Union with one
anoth­er too.

For it is not enough to mere­ly subscribe
to the Right Way of Relat­ing to one anoth­er, which may bring you
self-sat­is­fac­tion or the com­men­da­tion of your peers…you must Feel this Love
with­in and between you too…You must become more than mere Ideals, you must become more
than you were! 

It is not enough to know and believe what is True and Honorable,
for these Ideals must be anchored and secured with and to your Soul…They are anchored by,
in and through the Sac­ri­fices and Rewards you make with and for one another…They are secured
by this most awe­some Pow­er of your Feel­ings that you hold for one another.

These “Ideals made Real through Feel­ings” will then be woven into your soul, and into your relationship…and so it is
this that will hold you to your­self and to one anoth­er too, not mere­ly because it
is “Right”, but because it Feels Right too.

The Venus/Saturn chal­lenge may come as a choice, between
doing what is Right, Prop­er or Respectable ver­sus doing what feels more Authentic,
Desir­able or Passionate…but in the end you can­not and must not separate
your­self or these ways of being…your real Chal­lenge is to face the Choice
between one way or anoth­er, and then “choose not to choose”…Your Path is to take
the Third Way, to not choose because you have found the Mid­dle Way, the Path of
Synthesis…

Then you can be what you are meant to
be…

You will be Authen­ti­cal­ly Considerate…

Full of Feal­ty and Desire…

Pas­sion­ate and Respectful…

You will be more complete.

You the Self-Becom­ing Wonder…

Doing what is Right…

Feel­ing what is True.
