Why are you here? Where are you going? And what, what is your True Purpose?
Many wise and great souls have pondered these questions. The Ancient Wisdom, of which Astrology is a most important key, might very well answer with this:
You are here for one reason, to become a better human.
You are on a path of awakening that leads to true freedom.
Your purpose is to free yourself, as you equally do this for one another too.
Yes, as the Wheel of Life that is the Zodiac turns once more, you are reminded of this most important truth, you are not you, you could not even be human, without all with whom you journey on the shining path of Spiritual Awakening.
You have reached the heights in Capricorn and have arrived at a greater level of personal Self-Mastery. You have lifted your understanding, and so guided by Right-Thinking and Love, you have acted purposely to fulfill your righteous responsibilities. You performed your sacred duties; you upheld your position and you have earned your just reward. You are part of a sacred hierarchy, and your life-work-love is so very precious, as it is one more spark that forms the Divine light. This is your truest responsibility, that you are part of this Light of Love that holds the Universe together as One.
But this Journey of Becoming is truly everlasting, and as you reach ever deeper within yourself to understand who you are, you will commensurately extend yourself further out in time and space too. You must understand that your work is not done by just cherishing and preserving what has been; you are not here merely to pass on what has been achieved.
You are here for what is to come.
You are here to be the seed of what is yet to be.
This is the promise and purpose of Aquarius. In this time of Aquarius, and equally somewhere in your chart, there shines the light of the future. It holds the dream of better days and laughter, of clear horizons and star-filled wonders. You are here to go beyond what made you, “you”; to seek beyond these sometimes dim lit realms of today that are shadowed by the weight of it might have been. You are here to forge a better world as you make a better you.
Your responsibilities and duties, of keeping faith with what has been accomplished and made precious in Capricorn will always remain. These “realities” form the substantial core of your own life, as they equally form the hierarchy of all the many life-forms with whom you journey. But now you must look ahead and consider what is the larger purpose of any one life, to experience and make real what is here and held in the realm that is Aquarius.
You will see it in the eyes of your dearest loves and truest friends, and then with all who share with you these greater dreams of a better tomorrow. The truth is so plain that we feel its warmth in our heart and hear that quiet gentle voice of our soul, and it is simply the joyful and simple, but profound truth, “that we are here for one another”.
We are here to fulfill our very own dreams which are truly and equally made of one another; we are here again among our dear ones, our sacred band of fellow seekers. Yes, you are here right now, you are exactly where you belong, because you are made by and for one another, and you can only be and become the very future you dream about with your very dear ones, with your constant companions, with your steadfast and faithful friends.
You are all part of one another because what made you, in this life and in all your lives before, came from the many experiences you have had with one another. Your greatest illusion is that you are separate from one another, and that you need to create a connection between one another. But the reality is that you are bound and bonded to one another from the beginning unto the end. The Truth is that you are all mixed up with, forged and formed, and so made of one another. All your sensibilities, thoughts, feelings, aspirations and dreams, all those things that you think are yours are part of the same reality you share with one and all. You are less an “I” and more a “We” than you know.
And, what do you really want for yourself, and what do you want for those you love? You want to be happy; and you want them to be happy too. But what is “Happiness”?
Happiness is the experience of Self-Fulfillment.
For any of us to experience happiness, we need one another. For how could you possibly be fulfilled if others are not; how could you be truly happy, if you do not care for one another? You see your own happiness in the smiles and laughter of your fellow companions; their happiness is yours, and yours is theirs.
You are for one another, in the lives you live with and for one another, the very means to one another’s self-fulfillment and experience of true happiness.
For it is in making a better future possible for now and for the future, it is by this that you fulfill your destiny to become a conscious co-creator in the wonder that is Creation.
Aquarius is the promise that our better days are yet to be. That brotherhood, sisterhood, tolerance and unconditional love for one another is truly what it means to be human.
That is why, the “heart of the teaching” will always be:
“Love One Another”
May it be, make it so.
Love one another.
