The Sacred Space of Relationship
There is only the One.
There is only the One Life, and One Mind, and the One Spirit that is Creation.
There is only the One, who became the Universe by forming the many, many ones that are the Body, Mind and Spirit of the One.
And you, and all with whom you journey, are a one of these many ones.
The Universe is a Hierarchy of Hosts, ranging from the most infinitesimal particles of creation on up through atoms, molecules, organisms, planets, stars and galaxies and beyond. And all these forms are in truth “Fields of Energies” or “Relationships of Energy-Forms”, who are the embodiments of Creation known as Spirit-Matter.
Every unique Field of Spirit is ensouled by its own Monad or Center of Spirit, what we call a Spark of the Divine. Because this is so, each and every particle of Creation is “Alive”, “Conscious”, and shining with the One True Light of Spirit, which is the Energy-Form that holds the entire Creation as one.
And this Universal Root of All is quite simply Divine Unconditional Love.
Each monad of Spirit is on a journey; coming out of or from a Star, each particle of spirit moves through realms, bodies, and lives. And by these many forms and steps of light through the “Fields of the Lord”, this Spark of the Divine by these innumerable experiences, through ceaseless unfoldings and self-becomings, this spark lifts itself from unself-aware consciousness to become a Divinely realized Consciousness, an awakened being, a freed Monad or Jivanmukta.
In this Journey of Spirit, every monad is part of a host of similar ones, who are in turn held in the fields of energy-forms of more encompassing hosts. These fields of Spirit intersect and hold one another so that in the entirety of Creation all are related to all, all are part of and form the greater host that is the One. That is why we say, and we must learn to live by this Truth, that “We are all related, we are all ones of the One”.
In this Pathway of Awakening, we host of humans find ourselves at a most precious stage. We are self-aware, and so we have reached the stage where we have the gift of choice. We can choose well or poorly, and by this great gift, we can learn to choose better and become better; we can more steadily make progress and lift ourselves upon the Pathway of Perfection so that we can become conscious co-creators of Creation. But as in the entirety of Creation, we cannot do this on our own, because we are made by one another.
Today we reach that time of year where we celebrate this fundamental truth, “that we are all related”. Today we enter that Spiritual Field of Life-Forms we call Libra. And at this time and wherever you have Libra in your chart, we are held and guided in the truth that our one and true “Way of Being” is to love one another, as we are all related and formed into who and what we are by one another.
For this is the truth held in Libra, that we are made into what we are by all our “relations”. The notion that you or I are separate and apart from anyone (or anything) is one of the great illusions from which we must free ourselves.
We have been formed throughout our entire journey that is Creation, and most certainly in this period of being “human”, we are most definitely formed by all the other “fields of energy-forms” that shaped and guided, formed and form us to the very end of days.
From the beginning, and in each and every life, you are formed and informed, shaped, supported, guided, and inspired; in one form or another you are loved, and you love, and you shared your love with your family, friends, companions and strangers too. The feelings you feel, the thoughts you think, in fact all that you think you know of as “you” came from these others that you met with in this life and in all your other lives too.
All these encounters, from the most casual and transient to the most enduring and deep, all of them must be guided by the understanding of what you do here. You are in your space, and they are in their space; and now you must create what I call “Third Space”, which is the space we call Relationship.
In Libra, by relationship, you create a new and “Sacred Space”, where your field of energy-forms encounters their field of energy-forms and you together form this new space, the shared and sacred space of “Us”. In this “virgin territory”, you are to be guided by the truth that we are all made of one another and related to one another. Truly we are all part of one another, interwoven with one another, because we are truly a field of energy-forms that extend far beyond our mere physical form.
What is held within this “Field of Dreams”, that is the real you, it is your true nature; you are a microcosm of the Cosmos, and so is the one before you. And this is why you must know this truth, that whoever is before me is another spark of the Divine too.
This means that the Sacred and Spiritual guiding principle for you in this space that you create with one another must follow the path of True Freedom. You must do everything that you can, and they must do likewise, to make this new and sacred space, this new Field of Energies, you must make it the very means by which you and they can be even more what you are meant to be than you ever could be without one another.
To do this you must be guided by Love, and by Forgiveness too. You create this Space by Love, by extending your love to them you are welcomed by the Divine within them that is equally within you too. But because you are not perfect, and neither are they, you must also take care of this sacred space by caring for it and yourselves through humility, grace and forgiveness. You must give one another this grace of spirit, which will create a space where you will try but sometimes fail, and then you must try again. And the way that you can do this is by humility and grace, so that you forgive one another as you equally forgive yourself.
You are on the Pathway of Perfection; and you create like the Creator when you give one another the space to grow by forgiveness, and this is the path of true love that is there within one another. It is the Love of the One that is in your heart and in theirs too.
You are the way to one another’s self-fulfillment.
You are here to love and to be loved; to shine with the light of the One.
Now enter the Sacred Space of Relationship.
As you bow to the divine before you, as you see the light shining in their eyes, you say
Namaste.
