Twelve New Moons,

Twelve Gifts of the Spirit.

Today is the next offer­ing from your Star and Moon,

For they meet every month, and in

Their Spi­ral Weav­ings around one another…

You will see sweep­ing before you,

The Arche­typ­al Dance, the Spir­i­tu­al Lessons of Life.

For that is what the Zodi­ac is, it is

The “Cir­cle of the Liv­ing Ones”.

They offer Guid­ance and Help along the path,

It is a Dream­ing-Being of Won­drous Meanings,

Of Promis­es made, of Inspi­ra­tions and Hope for you too,

All to Illu­mi­nate your steps upon the this Won­drous Path,

Your Nev­er-End­ing Jour­ney of the Self that is Becoming.

Each New Moon brings you a gift to help lift you on your path. Each of these twelve gifts is spe­cial and inte­gral to your ful­fill­ment of your des­tiny. For you are des­tined to become on Earth a ful­ly func­tion­ing Human, an Illu­mined being, Self-Awak­ened and so both will­ing and capa­ble of being a Self-Con­scious, Co-Cre­ator of this Cosmos.

But there is some­thing spe­cial about this Third Gift of Spir­it, some­thing that speaks to the impor­tance of a thresh­old you crossed over long ago. You passed through a Por­tal of Aware­ness, and that Quick­en­ing cre­at­ed the means by which you could begin to take up this stead­ier, self-made climb back to the stars. It is this Gift of Spir­it that is the Inte­gral Source of that which will ulti­mate­ly bring you to the promise of your even­tu­al Self-Mas­tery and Self-Determination.

For it is in this Third Stage of Unfold­ment that you are remind­ed of the gift that was impart­ed long ago by the “gods”, who walked among you and who were there to pass on to you the Gift that they too had once received from those who came before them. This Awe­some Gift (and Respon­si­bil­i­ty) is the Jew­el that is Self-Aware­ness. It was their Sacred Sac­ri­fice for you that began the Quick­en­ing of your Spir­i­tu­al Pow­ers of Rea­son, Intel­li­gence and Crit­i­cal Think­ing that put you firm­ly upon the noble path of becom­ing a Wis­dom-Keep­er too.

For it is the Gift of Gem­i­ni that brings to you the pre­cious fac­ul­ty of Self-Reflec­tive Aware­ness, and it is this abil­i­ty, “to think about think­ing”, to be able to “step out­side” of your­self and con­sid­er the why, how and what of your con­scious­ness, it is this that per­mits you to be able to com­pare and con­trast many points of view and to ulti­mate­ly see and under­stand this Uni­verse as it tru­ly is. That you will know that all the Beings or Life-Forms which in their total­i­ty form the very sub­stance of this Uni­verse, that all of THAT is to be expe­ri­enced as it tru­ly is, a Won­drous­ly Mul­ti-Faceted Jew­el of Spir­i­tu­al Con­scious­ness that, for lack of a bet­ter word, you call God.

It is from this that you are able to encom­pass and under­stand that there are innu­mer­able points of views and per­spec­tives, and that you must come to expe­ri­ence and under­stand as many as you can if you are to know your­self and your world as you must…For you are here to grow and learn, to become a Con­scious Co-Cre­ator of this Cos­mos, and to do this you must unfold your Divine poten­tial and become awak­ened, illu­mined and wise.

At any one time in your jour­ney, you will find your under­stand­ing shaped and mold­ed by your par­tic­u­lar point of view or par­a­digm. This win­dow on your world, this lens or facet through which you per­ceive is formed by many influ­ences, by your fam­i­ly, your soci­ety and cul­ture, by your edu­ca­tion­al and life expe­ri­ences, and many oth­er fac­tors too. No mat­ter what you may do at any one time, you will shine this point of view upon the phe­nom­e­na of the world around you, and just like a bright light, you will illu­mine what is “real” to you. But you will equal­ly cre­ate and cast a heavy shad­ow too. You will hide or obscure what you will then be unable to see or per­ceive, and it will remain for­eign to you. And it may if some­how hint­ed at, it may come to be expe­ri­enced as a very real threat to what is actu­al­ly your self-blind­ed, parochial view of Real­i­ty. That you will find that your Fears are formed in the Shad­ow that you cre­ate by what you do not yet under­stand or perceive.

The Gift of Gem­i­ni is here to remind you or what lies with­in you. That in order to Grow and Under­stand you must be open, and that you and your mind must ever be like a “child” at heart. You must remain agile and adept, con­stant­ly seek­ing, search­ing, ques­tion­ing (and self-ques­tion­ing). You must ever seek to keep adjust­ing, shift­ing and mov­ing your per­spec­tive so as to elim­i­nate your shadows…You must remain open in order to grow…You must remain eager to expe­ri­ence and know more…You must remain essen­tial­ly curious…about Every­thing.

You must ques­tion your­self and your assumptions…constantly. For it is by this that you will devel­op that more well-round­ed (hum­ble and wise) approach of a seek­er who keeps seek­ing, a know­er who under­stands there is more that is unknown. You will, as you grow into your Depth of Under­stand­ing learn to fol­low the Spir­i­tu­al Injunc­tion of those who Know and Serve, the so-called “Lone­ly Ones”. You will know, accept and so under­stand that there is only one Way and one Path, and so you will accept and under­stand that you must “Walk On”…

The Gift of the New Moon in Gem­i­ni is your Gift of Eter­nal Youth…

That with­in you is a Spark of the Divine…

An Abid­ing “Pres­ence” who watch­es over you…

Who Inspires and Guides your every step…

Along a Gold­en Path of Becoming…

This is your Jour­ney as a Spark of the Divine…

Find­ing your way back,

To your Home in the Stars.
