Libra New Moon (September 27, 2011)

Take your part­ner by their hand…For now it is time to walk togeth­er, side by side and “oar to oar”…To grow in under­stand­ing and accep­tance of the gift, the gift of being with the beloved.

The sev­enth New Moon of the Astro­log­i­cal year is here for you. It releas­es those seed-forms which serve to ever inspire, uplift and guide you in and out and through your relationships.

Though many things remain the same, from day to day and year to year, and that is good, the delight to be found in one anoth­er is often encoun­tered in dis­cov­ery, of new real­iza­tions and bound­aries crossed, about the oth­er, and, of course, about oneself.

This is such a time. You are mov­ing into new spaces of relat­ing; new mean­ings, new feel­ings and forms are wait­ing to find their real­i­ty in your expe­ri­ence of one anoth­er. All that is required is your accep­tance of the Truth of Rela­tion­ship. That you acknowl­edge and live the life that says that all that exists is found­ed upon the One Great Truth: that each and every, one and all…we are all ones of the One.

You are always in rela­tion­ship because of this, because you are That. You are here to live the life that sings the song “We Are All Relat­ed”, and so let go of your dread of separation…for that is the great illu­sion. Let it go…in front of you is your “Self”.

Spir­it nev­er ceas­es; it ever yearns to unfold itself into the wider spaces with­in and with­out. And it now seeks to see itself through the eyes of the oth­er, as you seek to con­nect, touch and feel the assur­ance that comes from the Truth that you are nev­er alone, nev­er ever.

As the Mas­ter Robert Frost so won­der­ful­ly wrote:

Two such as you with such a mas­ter speed
Can­not be part­ed nor be swept away
From one anoth­er once you are agreed
That life is only life forever­more
Togeth­er wing to wing and oar to oar.”

Togeth­er, join hands now…

and always walk the path…Together.

Mercury Enters Libra (September 25, 2011)

Mer­cury dash­es into Libra till Octo­ber 13 and you will need to con­sid­er one anoth­er’s point of view…and then some! The Vir­go analytical/critical approach gives way to poise and grace, to your social sen­si­bil­i­ty; thoughts and com­mu­ni­ca­tions are full of “on the oth­er hands”, of com­par­isons and con­trasts, of give and take…And you try, you strive, you reach for, maybe even achieve…The Balance!

Your mind is occu­pied with con­nect­ing, turned out­ward to the oth­er for your need has always been to be under­stood and so you seek to understand…It has always been so, for your jour­ney, your unfold­ing, expand­ing con­scious­ness depends upon this. To know your­self, to know the oth­er, this is your journey.

And when you see IT, the light of under­stand­ing in the eyes of the other…you know, you just know that you are that much closer…That you are approach­ing the Mystery…

That it is pos­si­ble to pass beyond the Great Illu­sion, to move beyond the appear­ance of sep­a­ra­tion; you hear the won­drous Heart-Song singing at the core of this Cos­mos, and the Veil begins to lift…

You look into one anoth­er’s eyes and know, you tru­ly know and feel that you are one of the ones of the One, and you are head­ing home.

Always…

Sun Enters Libra — The Equinox (September 23, 2011)

You are nev­er alone…ever. But now, now it is time to take anoth­er by their hand, to walk togeth­er, side by side, to face the future that you make togeth­er, to dance the dance of life that is shared, as you become the becoming…

Now comes your time to dance the Dance in Libra.

The wheel is turning…it rolls into a new sea­son, a social sea­son, a time of con­nect­ing to one anoth­er and re-con­nect­ing with your “self”. You have reached the bal­ance point, the tip­ping point, you stand at the Equinoc­tial Moment and you must pause to con­sid­er the life just lived and the life before you.

It is a time of end­ing and a new begin­ning; you have pre­pared your­self while you danced through Vir­go. You cre­at­ed your vir­ginal space with­in and with­out, you made your­self more whole and so more ready for true, rec­i­p­ro­cal rela­tion­ship. Now you must move out from your cen­ter and find your­self through the other…

The Sun moves into Libra, into the next Car­di­nal Sign (Begin­nings), into the next Air Sign (Mind). It is time to gath­er with one anoth­er, to com­fort and reas­sure one anoth­er as your days grow short­er, as dark­ness approach­es. You bring your­self, you offer your­self to the oth­er. You seek to be part of some­thing greater, to be not alone…you seek to belong.

You stand at the Great Por­tal, the Bal­ance Beam of life, seek­ing entrance; and so you must be assessed, val­ued, “weighed” on the Scales of Libra. You want to “belong”, to be part of some­thing beyond your­self, to share and be appre­ci­at­ed for what you have to offer. What is your val­ue? What val­ue do you offer? Of course, it is all about the one true val­ue, the price­less treasure…Love.

So you must watch and see how the scales tip, to and fro, as your­self and your deeds are judged. Will you be found wor­thy or want­i­ng, are you ready for that greater rela­tion­ship? You seek the answer, will your con­tri­bu­tion count, can you join in and become part of some­thing greater…do you love your­self, do you love the other…do you belong?

You wait, at the por­tal of the greater life, nev­er alone, but seek­ing out­ward con­fir­ma­tion and acceptance…You seek to dance the dance of life that moves you now, to seek and know that “I and thou” will move togeth­er, now into the becoming…that we are the becoming…together.

Through the por­tal, you and your beloved must dance the dance togeth­er; for you are ones of the One, nev­er alone but always accompanied…You are one of the count­less sparks of the Divine, and you, togeth­er, are the becom­ing that is Life-Consciousness-Spirit.

Dance!

The Seed of Our Culture: Super Conjunction of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto

Here is a clip of a radio inter­view from 2010 where I talk about the World Defin­ing Super Con­junc­tion of Uranus, Nep­tune and Plu­to that hap­pened back around 580–570 BC. It was the last time that Uranus, Nep­tune and Plu­to came togeth­er in a Grand Con­junc­tion or “New Moon”. It cre­at­ed a Seed­ing or Release of major Spir­it forms for the whole planet.

It was the time of such lumi­nar­ies as Bud­dha, Lao Tzu, Con­fu­cius, Zoroast­er, Pythago­ras and many oth­ers whose wis­dom and influ­ence still guides us today.

I then turn to the more recent Uranus-Nep­tune align­ment of 1989. This con­junc­tion, which last occurred in 1821, will inspire us for the next 170 years. It creates/provides a new artic­u­la­tion or under­stand­ing as we strive to achieve a new bal­ance between the one and the many, between the indi­vid­ual and society.
