To be human…is to dream!
Another year around your star, and you find yourself once more in the supernal realm of Pisces. At this time of the year, and living forever somewhere in your Astrological chart, Pisces is where you encounter the mystery of you; Pisces holds the supreme wonder and promise of your spark of the Divine. The final gift from the “Circle of the Living Ones” is the most precious, for it truly forms your Alpha and your Omega, the Fountain-Source of all your futures.
Wise ones know that every life you live is but one of many, and all your lives are like pearls strung upon a shining silver chord of spirit, reaching far back beyond all knowing and equally stretching forward into what has yet to be written in the stars.
At the end of every story of you is where you gather the seeds of the next. The harvest of all your triumphs and stumbles are brought together, and you come to understand that each part, the “good” and the “bad” as being necessary to the complete story that is you. You are making what you will become someday; and by learning what not to do is the very means by which you change.
Yes, it is by constantly letting go of the lesser and moving into a greater form, that you realize that you are only present in one space; you are only here, forever, in the eternal now. You are the living instrument of becoming; you are “the way of becoming” on the path of what you are meant to be.
You grow and you change continuously over the span of any one life. Then by folding these experiences into many, many lives, you slowly but surely become ever stronger, ever gentler, acquiring true wisdom that is matched by greater humility. You lift yourself as you help one another too, and this is how you create the glorious future that awaits us all.
For this is the “Great Work”, and the making of you is yours. The Great Law of Karma is Perfect, and that is why what you give is what you will get, and that whatever you sow, so shall you reap. Your harvest becomes the foundation for the next chapter within each life, and these sowings and reapings equally shape the many lives you will live far into the future too.
This is the promise and power of Spirit, which is the luminous Energy-Form behind the entirety of Creation: this whole Universe is Alive; the Universe is Conscious; and every part of Creation is the story of Spirit’s Journey of Becoming, and you are a special part of the story, and at the center of one and all is the Spark of the Divine.
And now, having reached the Kingdom called Human, you have joined the company of the Self-Aware. That luminous, impelling, irresistible awareness is added to Spirit’s drive to always grow and become something more. Because of your awakening, the more unconsciously expressed need to be and become will now be guided, shaped and realized by your “Choice”. You are making you, more and more over time, as a self-aware conscious creation. You are becoming a co-Creator of Creation, and you join a great celestial company now, making you into another shining star among the many stars of Creation.
And here is the Pearl of Great Price held in Pisces. Precisely because you are self-aware, because you are now able to better understand yourself and your world, you are more able to consciously connect with your “higher self”. And it is because of this that you are able to move beyond your ordinary awareness, of merely conscious knowing. You have awakened your intuitive knowing, so that you can lift the Veil of Isis. You are able to move beyond your lower mind, to understand what is beyond ordinary knowing. You have freed your consciousness so that you can truly dream and imagine “what might be”.
Yes, in Pisces your mortality meets your immortality, and the conscious connection with your “beloved”, the divine spark within you, allows you to lift yourself from a life lived fatalistically to one lived by a “Living Faith”. You “know” because you feel the truth; you know a way beyond ordinary thinking, because the intimations and gentle reminders of your spark of the Divine enable you to face and overcome your greatest enemy, fear.
Now you know that you have nothing to fear. Because you know, truly know, that you are the Dreamer, who is making and living this life and this world. And no matter what you have been, no matter where you are now, you have within you the heart and the Soul of the Universe to be and become so much more.
Yes, now that you are awake you are able have a Living Faith in your greatest gift which to imagine a better you, and to dream of a more loving world for one and for all.
Now that you have awakened, now that you are ready, you can go forth and “make it so”.
Yes, in Pisces you find revealed the truth of what it means to be human; you are not to be driven by desires and fears, by recriminations and shame. You are here because you dreamed, and you can use your imagination to dream better and make a more beautiful you and world again and again.
You have your faith, a living faith, and a knowing that the story of humanity is the story of moving from fear to faith, from anger to love, and from the darkness into the everlasting, eternal light.
This is who you are; and this is why you here.
Pisces is the final chapter, but also it is the beginning, over and over again.
This is your journey, from darkness into the light.
You were made for this,
And you were made to shine!
So poetic and inspiring. Thank you, Bill.
