Sun Enters Aries (March 19, 2020)

The Cir­cle of the Liv­ing Ones, the Zodiac

You always need to remem­ber: Where did we come from, and where are we going?

And to this, all the Teach­ers and Mas­ters have replied: You are on a nev­er-end­ing jour­ney of Light and Love.

Today we mark the begin­ning of the Astro­log­i­cal Year. Hav­ing con­sid­ered dur­ing Pisces the mean­ings and mes­sages of the year just past, we turn our heads and look ahead to the far hori­zon of what is yet to be writ­ten in the Book of Life, the Sto­ry of Spir­it. And, as always, we begin with the sign of the Spir­i­tu­al War­rior, the Sign of Aries.

As I have not­ed since before 2008, the year when Plu­to entered the sign of Capri­corn, we are here to be those humans who wit­ness the “end of age and the dawn of anoth­er”. The entire hier­ar­chy of insti­tu­tions by which we meet one another’s needs, rang­ing from the most fun­da­men­tal and inti­mate in our fam­i­lies, on up through com­mu­ni­ty, state and nation­al struc­tures are being test­ed again and again, and again.

Some­times we will be sur­prised by their resilience and rel­e­vance; and some­times we will wit­ness their fail­ure and obso­les­cence. The aware­ness we had, the actions we took, and the world that we made brought us to this moment of des­tiny. Yes, in so many ways this world that we made is like a fog that is giv­ing way, and it is mak­ing way for the dawn of a new world that we must make now.

It is our chal­lenge to under­stand the world we made, its trea­sures and its fail­ings. The way we met our needs and lived with one anoth­er brought us to here; but we can no longer live this way if care for one anoth­er and our dear plan­et too. We must accept the respon­si­bil­i­ty for what we have cre­at­ed, for much of this world is now human-shaped, for good and for ill. We are the “gods in the mak­ing”, but we are very, very imper­fect embod­i­ments of the one divine light.

We must come togeth­er, take sacred oaths and pledge our lives and for­tunes to one anoth­er. We have only one choice now, and that is to take up the chal­lenge of this moment; for it is your respon­si­bil­i­ty, duty and priv­i­lege to make a bet­ter world right now and for those who will follow.

Aries is the space for the begin­ning of all things; and in this time and wher­ev­er it is found in your chart, Aries is the Avatar of what is the most impor­tant truth that you must hold in your heart and mind: you only exist here. What was you can­not change; and what will be you can­not know; the only place you can redeem your past and make a bet­ter future is in this Space­time we call the Eter­nal Now.

That is why the most impor­tant step you will ever take is the next one. And not just the actu­al step. Before you leap, you must look with­in, and you must look around you too. You must con­sid­er most care­ful­ly the truths that guide you, for these will shape and form your moti­va­tion or rea­son behind your next step. Yes, you must be clear: what is my inten­tion, what is my pur­pose or goal, and then move for­ward with that decisively.

But equal­ly you must per­ceive or appre­hend, and ask your­self “what exact­ly what am I encoun­ter­ing here?” You must act with under­stand­ing and humil­i­ty, by clear­ly con­sid­er­ing what is need­ed from you. You must ask: What does this space, what does this exist­ing con­di­tion need from me?

Then, once you under­stand, you must do your very best; to give what you can and let go of what you must.

This is the begin­ning, but there will be many begin­nings and you will take many steps.

You must be present in each moment; you must be ful­ly awake, alert, and ready to respond with what will make pos­si­ble a bet­ter world for one and all.

You must be coura­geous, self­less and guid­ed by love, for this is the way of spirit.

This is the mes­sage of Aries; this is the moment Now.

This is the Way of the Spir­i­tu­al Warrior.

Sun Enters Pisces (February 18, 2020)

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!
