The Gift of Rebirth, The Way of Union

This is the space you encounter Ulti­mate Truth.

This is when you feel the high­est Joy,

And when you fall into depths of Pain,

This is your time for Love; this is your time for Loss.

This is the Space-Time to face your Shadow…

And, this is your cross­ing point into the Light.

This is the Realm that is Scorpio.

Wher­ev­er Scor­pio is found in your chart, and when­ev­er there are plan­ets mov­ing through this Sign, you will find that it is here that you face the Fun­da­men­tal Chal­lenge of your Journey:

You are an Immor­tal; but you move through mor­tal forms.

Your inner­most is a spark of the Divine; always and for­ev­er your Divin­i­ty is an essen­tial and unique instance of the Indi­vis­i­ble One, and to all less­er forms it is what is sim­ply known as the inef­fa­ble “That”. But to make pos­si­ble your jour­ney through Space-Time, you create/unfold from with­in your­self a hier­ar­chy of “bod­ies” or Ener­gy-Forms that per­mit your exis­tence upon each plane of man­i­fes­ta­tion. From the most numi­nous and tran­scen­dent to the most mate­r­i­al of planes (like here on Earth), all your vehi­cles are the mor­tal bod­ies held as one by your High­er Self.

You are born into a form; you die to that form; but you enter anoth­er. Spir­it is Life; Spir­it-Life is Eter­nal. But the Worlds, Forms and Lives you live are only for a time. You form attach­ments to your form; you form attach­ments to one anoth­er. You find the Joy of being togeth­er; and so, you must expe­ri­ence the pain of sep­a­ra­tion too. This is your jour­ney bound­ed by the inseparable:

Love and Loss; Joy and Pain.

You are on a jour­ney of Self-Becom­ing, of mov­ing from less­er forms to the greater, of mov­ing out so that you may come back again, now know­ing, from mov­ing through all these Worlds, Forms and Lives that you are a spark of the Divine mak­ing your way to become a Ful­ly Con­scious Co-Cre­ator of Creation.

One day, you will break the bonds of fear. You will have an unbreak­able faith because you Know: I am Immor­tal, I am the Light and the dark­ness and fear were just the phan­toms of my past, when I was not the mas­ter of enter­ing and leav­ing these forms…but now I know, now “I am That, I am.”

And so, you will equal­ly face the mys­tery of Union with one anoth­er, final­ly free of the fear of loss too. For count­less Worlds, Forms and Lives, your Joy of Love for one anoth­er was bound up with Pain and Loss, it was (and will be) unbear­able. Yet, there will come a time when you will stand in the Light that will not dimin­ish, and you will know that we are insep­a­ra­ble to one anoth­er, all mixed-up togeth­er, we are made of and by one anoth­er for ever and ever, and we will meet again and again until we break the karmic cycle of uncon­scious birth and re-birth with our awak­en­ing. And we will break the bonds of fear and step into the undy­ing light by our very forg­ing of unions in life after life.

Yes! It is pre­cise­ly in these lov­ing unions that you see the Truth; you under­stand because you have direct knowl­edge of your Immor­tal­i­ty and your insep­a­ra­ble one­ness with one anoth­er. You go out to meet one anoth­er, to live and laugh and love this beau­ty, this beloved who is there before you…and won­der of won­ders, it is by this very going out to them, that by sac­ri­fic­ing the less­er with­in you in order to join with them, (and they like­wise do this to join with you), it is in this Union (and Re-Union again and again), with the oth­er that you come anoth­er step clos­er to your true Self too.

You move out of your­self to cre­ate the Space of We.

You join togeth­er by sur­ren­der­ing the less­er and hon­or­ing the Greater with­in and between you.

And, in the end, you smile and understand.

You have met your own true Self through one another…

You are for one anoth­er the Way and the Light…

You are the Light; We are the Light.

Shine on.

Jupiter Enters Scorpio – The Way of Truth

Jupiter is the Avatar of your Truth. In your birth chart, it pro­vides an indi­ca­tor as to the way in which you will work towards what is known as the “greater under­stand­ing”; it illu­mi­nates the path of Truth you are to fol­low in any life.

By rul­ing what is true for you, what gives mean­ing and mean­ing­ful­ness to your life, Jupiter also indi­cates how you will relate to the larg­er world around you. By hold­ing and shap­ing your moti­va­tions or your inten­tion­al nature, Jupiter helps you to find and fol­low your path of Self-Fulfillment.

Jupiter will move through the 12 signs of the Zodi­ac in rough­ly 12 years. Though your own place­ment of Jupiter in a sign indi­cates how your will find your way in gen­er­al, it is also true that you need to inte­grate your own way of truth and being with the oth­er 11 ways too. You are here to learn to mas­ter all these ener­gies so that you may become ful­ly human.

Every year, if you open your under­stand­ing to a more com­pre­hen­sive and inclu­sive approach, you can devel­op a more inte­gral, nuanced and spir­i­tu­al­ly pur­pose­ful way of being. By mod­u­lat­ing your own way with that of the cur­rent place­ment of Jupiter, you lift your own under­stand­ing into the Greater Under­stand­ing that is your destiny.

But there is per­haps no greater les­son or gift than the pas­sage of Jupiter, (or any plan­e­tary body), through the sign of Scor­pio. Because of all the mys­ter­ies and truths you will encounter in this life, or in any life, it is this one that stands at the cen­ter of them all.

It is here that you meet “The Great Illu­sion” that is formed by you being an “I”, a sep­a­rate self-con­scious­ness of being, so that your very nature clear­ly seems to cre­ate an unbridge­able divide between you and every oth­er being.

For you have for­got­ten your truth: Long, long ago, you left from the One Spir­it as a mon­ad of con­scious­ness, to become anoth­er sparkling dew­drop among count­less oth­ers who in their pere­gri­na­tions through Space-Time form the Body of the One. Yet this seem­ing sev­er­ance or sep­a­ra­tion from the One brings about nev­er-end­ing pain and con­fu­sion, and it forms the soul­ful aching, the eter­nal long­ing for your return to the envelop­ing Peace and Love that is the One.

You seek to become unit­ed again and so become whole once more. You seek to shat­ter your alone­ness, and by reach­ing out to your fel­low sparks of the Divine you hope to feel this joy again, to be brought into the grace of peace, love and under­stand­ing that is of the One.

But what you will find, in life after life, is that this expe­ri­ence of reach­ing out to one anoth­er, of form­ing Unions of Sacred Space you share with one anoth­er, and of neces­si­ty mak­ing sac­ri­fices for and to one anoth­er, that it is pre­cise­ly here where you learn that by this giv­ing up the less­er in your­self you dis­cov­er the great­ness that is always and for­ev­er in them and in you too.

The mys­tery that is Union, the sub­lime mys­tery and gift of Scor­pio, reveals this Ker­nel of Ancient Wis­dom and Truth to you: That as you sur­ren­der the less­er parts of you to one anoth­er, as you draw clos­er to them and them to you, you are brought into the pres­ence of your own truer Self. You reach beyond your mor­tal frame and touch the Divine with­in and around you.

You come clos­er to the essence of you as you feel your way to the under­stand­ing that the One that you for­ev­er seek was (and will always be) there, right there as the very cen­ter of you…and of every­one else too. The Great Illu­sion is your feel­ing of sep­a­ra­tion; The Great Truth is that you are nev­er alone, you are not and can­not be sep­a­rat­ed from the One or from one anoth­er, for what you are and what sus­tains you through world after world, and in life after life, is the Love of the One that is you, and this equal­ly forms the Ocean of Cre­ation in which you and all the sparks of the Divine abide.

As much as Jupiter in Libra brought you into the Space of the Encounter with one anoth­er, and that Truth informed the Third Space that is Rela­tion­ship, it is here in Scor­pio that you lift the Veil of Isis and you must bow your head to the Gift of the Spirit.

You do this for one anoth­er as you join in com­mu­nion with each oth­er, for you have bro­ken the bonds of the great­est illu­sion; now you know, now you feel the truth that you are That. You know you are here in this mor­tal shell that brings you from such awful pain into the most unimag­in­able joy; you know that you are an Immor­tal danc­ing through worlds and lives as you draw ever clos­er to the one before you, and the one with­in you and to the One that is All.

You say the words to yourself:

I am That, I am.

You look upon one anoth­er and say:

Namaste.

You are one with one anoth­er, and with the One.

Astrologer Bill Attride Radio Show, #7: Jupiter in Scorpio
(Saturday October 14, 2017 @ 2 pm EDT)

Jupiter Enters Scorpio – The Way of Truth (October 10^th, 2017 — November 8^th, 2018)

Today’s show will con­sid­er the sig­nif­i­cance of Jupiter mov­ing from sign to sign, with a par­tic­u­lar focus upon the shift from Libra to Scor­pio which occurred on Octo­ber 10^th, 2017.

Jupiter is the Avatar of your Truth. In your birth chart, it pro­vides an indi­ca­tor as to the way in which you will work towards the “greater under­stand­ing”; it illu­mi­nates the path of Truth you are to fol­low in any life.

By rul­ing what is true for you, what gives mean­ing and mean­ing­ful­ness to your life, Jupiter also indi­cates how you will relate to the larg­er world around you. By hold­ing and shap­ing your moti­va­tions or your inten­tion­al nature, Jupiter helps you to find and fol­low your path of Self-Fulfillment.

Jupiter will move through the 12 signs of the Zodi­ac in rough­ly 12 years. Though your own place­ment of Jupiter in a sign indi­cates how your will find your way in gen­er­al, it is also true that you need to inte­grate your own way of truth and being with the oth­er 11 ways too.

Every year, if you open your under­stand­ing to a more com­pre­hen­sive and inclu­sive approach, you can devel­op a more inte­gral, nuanced and spir­i­tu­al­ly pur­pose­ful way of being. By mod­u­lat­ing your own way with that of the cur­rent place­ment of Jupiter, you lift your own under­stand­ing into the Greater Under­stand­ing that is your destiny.

As before, I will answer your ques­tions dur­ing the show, whether on this sub­ject or some oth­er mat­ter, includ­ing per­son­al ques­tions about your astro­log­i­cal chart. If you do wish to ask a per­son­al ques­tion, please be ready to pro­vide at least your birth date and birth place, and time of your birth if you have that too.

If you wish to sug­gest a sub­ject or top­ic for a future show, please email me as I would be hap­py to hear from you.
