Beau\u00adty meets the Beast. What hap\u00adpens when Value\/Love encoun\u00adters Willpower\/Control?\u2026 Well, let\u2019s just say that this is not going to be pret\u00adty unless you under\u00adstand the nature of the choice you face. <\/p>\n
The chal\u00adlenge is about under\u00adstand\u00ading and express\u00ading your val\u00adue or self-worth, and you are under pres\u00adsure from with\u00adin and with\u00adout. Venus is wing\u00ading its way through Aries, singing the song of indi\u00advid\u00adu\u00adal\u00adism and the val\u00adue of being \u201cI\u201d. You feel you must assert your unique\u00adness and be free to be yourself.<\/p>\n
Yet \u201cpure\u201d free\u00addom leads to a chaot\u00adic \u201cstate of nature\u201d, where every\u00adone is for them\u00adselves with\u00adout regard for one another.<\/p>\n
Now that urge for per\u00adfect free\u00addom is encoun\u00adter\u00ading Plu\u00adto. Plu\u00adto is lay\u00ading down the chal\u00adlenge from Capri\u00adcorn: that your pur\u00adsuit of \u201cI\u201d must be lim\u00adit\u00aded by the need for order and the ful\u00adfill\u00adment of respon\u00adsi\u00adbil\u00adi\u00adties; it is the out\u00ader order you sub\u00admit to and the inner order of your self-con\u00adtrol. In fact, your abil\u00adi\u00adty to be free depends upon a gen\u00ader\u00adal social order, (and with\u00adin that order by the qual\u00adi\u00adty of your per\u00adson\u00adal rela\u00adtion\u00adships), and upon your capac\u00adi\u00adty for self-con\u00adtrol. It is that gen\u00ader\u00adal order and your rela\u00adtion\u00adships formed with\u00adin it which cir\u00adcum\u00adscribe your free\u00addom as they also pre\u00adserve and pro\u00adtect it.<\/p>\n
Yet an order that just \u201cis\u201d, that upholds order and tra\u00addi\u00adtion uncrit\u00adi\u00adcal\u00adly, leads to stag\u00adna\u00adtion, mean\u00ading\u00adless\u00adness and the denial of spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal growth.<\/p>\n
So the urge to be free to be one\u00adself more tru\u00adly is con\u00adfronting the order which helped cre\u00adate the con\u00addi\u00adtions for free\u00addom. The ten\u00adsion is between how con\u00addi\u00adtions for free\u00addom are cre\u00adat\u00aded by a cer\u00adtain struc\u00adture of rela\u00adtion\u00adships, and the fact that this struc\u00adture must also lim\u00adit your free\u00addom at the same time.<\/p>\n
What is the les\u00adson, what is the choice?<\/p>\n
As always the les\u00adson is about your spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal growth. You and your world are con\u00adstant\u00adly evolv\u00ading: phys\u00adi\u00adcal\u00adly, emo\u00adtion\u00adal\u00adly, men\u00adtal\u00adly and spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal\u00adly. The val\u00adues cre\u00adat\u00aded and embod\u00adied in your rela\u00adtion\u00adships cap\u00adture a moment in time in the growth of spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal self-real\u00adiza\u00adtion. As you con\u00adtin\u00adue to unfold your poten\u00adtials that very struc\u00adture which sup\u00adport\u00aded you now comes to lim\u00adit you. The les\u00adson is to remem\u00adber that you are the cre\u00adator of the world you are in\u2026 You can and will change it. The only ques\u00adtion is: how con\u00adscious\u00adly will you bring about a new order?<\/p>\n
The false choice here is between assert\u00ading free\u00addom and break\u00ading with the order that is, or using force to main\u00adtain rela\u00adtion\u00adships that are one-sided. You either break your respon\u00adsi\u00adbil\u00adi\u00adties to oth\u00aders or force them to ful\u00adfill your needs. (Or they force you to serve them.) Either way denies true free\u00addom or mean\u00ading\u00adful order. But, remem\u00adber, there is always the \u201cThird Way\u201d, the Way of Understanding.<\/p>\n
The core issue here is Venus\/Value. It is your shared val\u00adues that bind you to one anoth\u00ader in any rela\u00adtion\u00adship from the per\u00adson\u00adal to the col\u00adlec\u00adtive. What you must do now is use the pow\u00ader of Plu\u00adto to deeply re-exam\u00adine what val\u00adues are true for you and for the oth\u00ader. What you need to do is deter\u00admine your hier\u00adar\u00adchy of val\u00adues, and come to know which are worth sac\u00adri\u00adfic\u00ading in order to make the rela\u00adtion\u00adship pos\u00adsi\u00adble. And as you do this you re-affirm the com\u00admon val\u00adues that you share with one anoth\u00ader. These com\u00admon val\u00adues are what bind you to one anoth\u00ader; these shared val\u00adues are the liv\u00ading real\u00adi\u00adty which forms what is Love.<\/p>\n
Even\u00adtu\u00adal\u00adly, as you go still deep\u00ader, your spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal growth is quick\u00adened by your expe\u00adri\u00adence that all of cre\u00adation comes from one Spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal source, and that we are bound to one anoth\u00ader not by com\u00adpul\u00adsion but by that Greater Under\u00adstand\u00ading, which is so sub\u00adlime\u00adly met in our Love for one another.<\/p>\n
So, let Pluto\/Hades take you into the depths of your being so that you may find the \u201cPearl of Great Price\u201d, the secret trea\u00adsure of Venus\/Value at the core of your soul. For it is there that you will meet the one with\u00adin which is the same as the One of Creation.<\/p>\n
You will under\u00adstand that the great illu\u00adsion of this world is your sense of sep\u00ada\u00adrate\u00adness; and, you will under\u00adstand the Great Truth, felt through your expe\u00adri\u00adence of love, that we are one in Spirit. <\/p>\n
