Lives in the lines

Posted on by

The human body is made of crystal structures – liquid crystal structures.

We enter earth life tuned by the singing of the hemispheres – the vibrations of the celestial bodies calling to us from the heavens at our time of birth. We are complex crystal prisms shifting and drifting in a cosmic sea of harmonic resonance.

Plato stated, “Every figure, every row of numbers and every assemblage of harmonious sounds, and the accordance of the cycles of the celestial bodies and the One as an analogy for all which is manifesting itself must become exceedingly clear to him who is searching in the right manner. That of which we speak will however come to light if one strives to recognize all, while not losing sight of the One. It is then that the connecting link of the ones named will come to light.“

The path of all harmonies leads and blends into the ONE, or Tao.
:::::::::::::::

When holding a printed copy of your natal chart in your hand, it may appear static, one dimensional, limited.

This is the beauty of its simplicity.
Is the desert without life ?
Only to the casual observer.
For those who shift focus . . . life and more life.

Imagine your personal prism . . . choices that have approached you throughout your life.  How you chose to respond was your vibration, your wavelength at the time.  These choices and growth spurts are echoes of the hemispheres – for we are ONE with the cosmos.  The growth we experience through each stage of life is attended by an audience of celestial bodies.

Recognize the chakra centers ? 
Muladhara (root) increases to the higher octave Sahasrara (crown) on the right.

Think of your living crystals this way – wavelengths and vibrations.
Think of your natal chart this way as well.
Shift focus – like tweaking a lenticular image – and you will literally see another dimension to your natal map.
A higher vibration – another octave – you will hear, see new notes.
::::::::::::::::

Let me explain . . .
I have Saturn Rx in Aries 3 trine Mars in Sagittarius. 
The prominent life – long big whopper standard interps for me equal:

I have stamina (Mars) over the long haul (Saturn / time).
Absence of the father growing up. (Saturn Rx)
Reading and writing (Saturn in 3rd, learning) and expanding my spiritual horizons (Sagittarius, higher learning and spiritual) are places where I apply force (Mars).

Shift focus, and the trivial weird stuff can be seen:

Lousy typist (Saturn restricts the hand movements – 3rd rules hands).
Pretty zen unless I am behind the wheel (3rd house is commuting) and other drivers disregard obvious traffic patterns (3rd house – patterns) then I fume (Mars).
Inked (Saturn / permanent, 3rd writing) on hand.  (mystical, Sag)
Scars on hand (3rd house) from burns and stabbing. (Mars)
Prone to headaches (Saturn restriction in head), will not headbutt (talk to the hand).
:::::::::
This is why I think everyone should study astrology – it is the best personal enlightenment tool I have seen to date.  Opportunities for insights are limitless ~
:::::::::

The cool thing is the natal map can describe others who are in your circle as well.
(That’s what I was going on about in my last post – I saw someone in my aspects !)

Saturn (and Sun) rule the father. 
Here is how my Dad shows up in my chart.
(I am Saturn in Aries 3 trine Mars in Sag ::  Virgo Sun conj Uranus / Pluto)

My Dad worked (Saturn) as a purchasing agent, on the phone all the time – sales. (3rd house is communication)
He medalled in track (Mars Sag) many times.
He lived many years past the date his cancer doctor predicted he would. (Saturn trine Mars)   This is also indicated by my Sun (father, life, fame or prominent in some way) conjunct Uranus (unusual or curious) Pluto (death).
Neat freak. (Sun Virgo stellium)
:::::::::::::

Incredibly groOovy that the course written in the life map is so simple, yet infinitely complex, textured and rich like a prism refracting light into rainbows . . . yes . . ?

Bending WillPower

Mailbag:
A reader with Sun square Pluto is searching for ways to accept power.

Dear reader, you already have power  – that is a fact that you need to accept  first and foremost.  Astrologically ANY contact between a luminary and Pluto IS powerful, your square just means you can’t easily accept it.  Yet.
First, it must be said with Plutonian power – it is most important to gain power over oneself, rather than use it to control others. 

Everything on earth has energy and vibrates with frequency.  Earth, rock, tree, bird, water, air, humans.  Earth vibrates slower, yet is very much energetically alive.
For instance, the sky above me just broke with lightning and rain, negative ions are in the air.  Use every opportunity you can to work with the natural earth forces around you – I just opened my door to bring more ions inside.  This ‘invisible’ energy is at work in and all around us.  If you want to tap it, and strengthen it, I will help.

This may seem obvious, but keep your physical body healthy.  Eat food that is natural, organic – avoid foods that are hard for your body to digest, as this uses more energy.  Hydrate often, keep your electrolytes replenished, exercise.  Be disciplined, restraint is actually quite freeing.  Find your Saturn and work it.

Mitakuye Oyasin.  We are all related.  Know your inherent worth.  You exist.  You are vital.  Still and focus on the energy of your own breath, heart and life coursing through you.  You are an intersection on the web of life.

:::::::::::::::::

We are all sparks of creation.  To bring the spark to a blaze, think of a moment in your life you were happiest.  Yes, you are going to create your Patronus.  Though be aware this is an Edgar Cayce reference source I am using.  Potter or Cayce – it works !

1. Imagine your happy event – identify what made it special – precisely what about the event  represents your highest spiritual joy and values ?  Got it ?  Make a small phrase to describe it.  This will be your ‘charm’, your ‘mantra’.  This is your thought, your moment crystallized into pure positive energy.  When you feel depleted, speak this phrase while imagining the moment that led you to choose it – feel the power behind the words, the emotion you are tapping when you say it aloud.

Thought + voice + positive intention = powerful energy raised

2.  The nature of energy is to move.
—-Keep the energy moving in your living environment.  Practice living simply.
 De-clutter, clean often.  Use scent, sound, water and fire to increase and clear the energy and keep it flowing in your home.
—-Keep the energy moving in your body through movement, exercise.
—-Keep the energy moving in your mind.  Read, do puzzles, learn new skills, approaches.  Take a different route, use your non-dominant hand to write or draw.

3.   Own your energy center.
—-You are in charge  of your charge.  Positive or negative, you raise the energy, or dampen it.  Energy by itself is neutral.  How you feel about it gives it charge – the human heart is electric.  Sun rules Leo, rules the heart – the emotional center of the human body.  Where the thoughts and feelings go, energy flows.

The body is a miraculous thing – heart transplant patients report literally a ‘change of heart’ : attitudes, feelings and identity merges with another spirit – the heart donor.  See how powerful we are ?  Amazing physical creatures.  We are spirit manifested into matter.  haha in a typo I wrote spit – but spit has power too !  My mother-in-law always spit on her bait to bring fish.  When I am in the woods without a proper offering, I will say a blessing and spit.  True.

Anyway, think how heartbreak feels, it is an ache in the chest – our spirit (Sun) is weakened.  Sun square Pluto is a call for change in desires of some kind.  Pluto forces a change of heart, in some way – only you know how Sun square Pluto person  – you are being forced to change on a soul deep level.  You are metamorphosis manifest. 
I feel for you, I have Sun conjunct Uranus Pluto; Pluto trine Moon; eighth house Venus conj Jupiter in Leo (Sun rules).  Giant Neptuner in Scorpio.  I get it.  I totally get it.

Sun (positive) in square to Pluto (negative) means you need to increase your awareness of your own inherent power.  Sun is light, Pluto is dark – find your balance.  Focus your awareness on the dark within.  See it and own it.  Own both the light and the dark.  Life is both.

You choose where you want to dwell – to accept your power, Sun square Pluto, find your center.   Ground yourself.  Pay attention to your larger surroundings, (your place in the web) then focus on yourself.  Your breathing, your blood pulsing, your heart.  Go micro web, see ?  Find those electro-magnetic intersections on your web of life within as well.

Focus on, feel out, and define your bodies in space:
electrical, physical
emotional
etheric
thought
spiritual

Know who, where and when you are regardless of changing circumstances.  Be in your own place of power.  This is a daily thing, by the way – keep at it.  Live your life as a walking talking prayer to raising your power – intentions set  – locked and loaded – to metamorphose your inner tension between light and dark into personal power in a healthy way.

Be aware of course, we are in Uranus square Pluto times, we will all likely have to lock and re-load often, as times and circumstances are changing rapidly.   As circumstances change, so will directions and intentions – stay focused, light on your feet, be ready to bob and weave…

This is how you will bend power to your will – and in the end find your will power.

I take photos of my tarot readings and tarot spreads like foodies take pictures of their meals.

I have books on layouts, but I have always created my own spreads to custom fit my needs. The Divenusian at work, you might say.

If I want a specific answer, I ask a specific question.

Framing the question in detail is critical for the very best results.   The Macro universe aligns with our Micro universe through our thoughts and intent.

The vibrational field surrounding the querent in turn manifests in seemingly random archetypal images that appear as I turn over the cards.

Through our focus, our intent, we become the Divining Rod which draws the cosmos into manifestation on earth.

When I begin doing readings, I will ask for specific questions from clients beforehand and I will custom build a spread designed to fit your needs. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While I am bending your ear/ brain on the Macro and Micro….

This is for those who feel shut out, lonely, without friends or hope.

Please reframe your concepts of alone.

Each cell in your body lives, breathes and follows a form and a function as a tiny part of a team unit.  Think about it – You are truly Master of Your Own Universe. 

The universe of you.
Your personal micro cosmos.
Your multitude of friends.

Acknowledge them  !   Name them !
Work to vibrate the highest possible vibration for your team.
How to do this…?

Think…what do you let in your head, your ears, your mind, your mouth ?
Be judicious.   Choose what you let in and out your door.
Mold your moods ::: do not let them mold you. 

Our emotional, spiritual, physical and etheric bodies are both sending and receiving stimuli 24/7.  Much of the information we send and receive is done subconsciously.

Be aware of negativity – acknowledge it ::: transform it ::: release it ::: be vigilant !
Anger, fear and aggression lead to the dark side.

Be kind to yourself.  

Establish a new energetic connection with the millions of cells inside your skin.
Work together.  What will you say to them … ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lastly, the astro community is on Uranus – Pluto squares like a house on fire – yet, strangely, I have not read one mention of how this will change our world.

Astrology and astrologers are ruled by Uranus !

This is a time of massive breakdowns of old school astro foundations – we are riding the waves of changes in our chosen field of study ! 

Are the old rules being bent and twisted to fit the new radicals visionary path ?

Who are the new pioneers, and what is the vision of modern – day boho astrologers ? 

Clever shiny astro inventions and new sideways of thinking  about our earth and skies are KEEN to POP UP !

Brilliant paradigm shifts are HERE & NOW. 

I would love to hear your thoughts on this, astro fiends and friends ~
Let’s chat !

peace out

Perspective.
Pluto rules the rare and miraculous, the microcosmos.
Saturn rules the Earth.

Pluto digs up and transforms how we experience everything in the place it lives or transits in our natal chart.

Pluto by transit hit exact square to my chart ruler, Saturn Rx – today.
Saw that comin’.
It went about as well as I figured it would. 

Pluto will turn your world on its head – you will find yourself hanging like Odin from a tree, sacrificing (death) one thing or idea only to transform that same thing or idea into another greater thing.  It is a struggle, a morph, a shift in perspective.

If the Plutonic situation will not change, YOU. WILL.
Which in turn does change the situation entirely.

See the picture of the Milky Way above…?
Shifts the way of thinking doesn’t it ?!
Now look at the photo below.

Perspective.
The universe – the micro / macro cosmos.
The ALL ONE.

The picture above is a stalked protozoan attached to a filamentous green algae with bacteria on its surface (160x).  1st Prize, 1979 – Paul W. Johnson University of Rhode Island, USA (source)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Uranus (Aquarius/ 11th house) and Pluto involve perspectives*  and microcosmos.  What house /s do these planets live in and what do they activate in your chart ?

* (see genius perspective artist, M.C. Eschers massive 11th house stellium)

Mine are conjunct Sun in Virgo, on the 9th house of Sagittarius, the expansive.
I SEE (Sag motto) the diversity of life (Pluto falls in my 8th house of Leo, Sun ruled or life)  BIG & small.
I can dovetail the two into a whole (Neptune girl is inclusive – Sag on 12th) philosophy (9th house)  ALL ONE. 

My former husband has them in the 11th house, he is a wicked smart micro biologist.
Teeny tiny is his trade, what he researches & produces goes into salad dressing, etc…
Both are trine his Moon (public) in Taurus.

Think about where Uranus and Pluto live in your chart and how they shift your perspectives time and again.  There is massive growth in that area of your chart, and there will be more in the future as Uranus and Pluto are moving closer to exact square in the sky above us now.

Look to planets they aspect – the house opposite (others), the houses squaring (internal), and the opportunities you have waiting for you in sextile, and the restful spots in the trines.  All these things will help you flesh out the story of your natal chart.

Now for a great photo that can bridge both worlds.
Earth AND Sky.
I love this one.

eat trash

Hope is a good breakfast, but it is a bad supper. – Francis Bacon

art objects Kevin Van Aelst

Sun and Mercury conjunct (power operating) communicating humanitarian concerns in rebel Aquarius.  They are forming the focal point in a T-Square between Saturn (responsibilities, the Earth) on 29 degrees (culmination degree) of Libra (balance, fairness), which is opposite (compromise) Moon (public, feelings) coming to conjunct Jupiter (excess) in Taurus (attitudes about luxury), which in turn, square (inner tension) Sun and Mercury. 

Mars Rx in Virgo (re-evaluate civil actions and service) opposite (compromise) Venus (luxury) in Pisces (universality) and Uranus in Aries (full throttle change).

Saturn trine Neptune (build the dream) on 29 degrees of innovative Aquarius.  Pluto (refuse, trash, transmutation) trine excessive Jupiter in the earth sign of Taurus.

You may apply the above to your life (micro) and globally (macro) – – it is the sky above us all.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I just watched a great documentary Dive ! which has won 21 film festival awards worldwide.  The film is part of a growing movement that re-examines the role of food in a society that wastes 1/2 of all that it produces.

Every year in America we throw away 96 billion pounds of food. One half of all food prepared in the US and Europe never gets eaten. The Department of Agriculture estimated in 1996 that recovering just 5 percent of the food that is wasted could feed four million people a day; recovering 25 percent would feed 20 million people. Today we recover less than 2.5 percent. (facts from: Dive !)

North Node of Destiny is in visionary Sagittarius. “Be the change you want to see in the world.” – Gandhi  – – Well done, filmmaker Jeremy Seifert, well done !

Please take 6 minutes to watch this small clip about food waste, and how to help empower change on our Earth.

“I created this work for the means of an interface to the people who are yet to know of the extremely grave, but present problem of the world.” ~ Japanese artist Isao HASHIMOTO
Each nation gets a blip and a flashing dot on the map whenever they detonate a nuclear weapon, with a running tally kept on the top and bottom bars of the screen.

here is the video link for my subscribers on e-mail: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLCF7vPanrY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tonight’s sky… three planets are at the 29th degree, the degree of saturation, culmination.

Sun is awareness -presently in Capricorn (self- interest), soon moving into progressive Aquarius (Earth tribe).

Saturn is Earth- presently on the scales of Libra (cooperation), soon moving under the scrutiny of powerful Scorpio.

Neptune is spiritual intelligence- presently in eccentric Aquarius, soon drifting home to the healing waters of Pisces.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This sky feels heavy.  I have natal Sun at 29 degrees.
The world is sick. I am sick, and my cat is sick.
When I am feeling better, I will discuss the 29th degree more fully.

Transit Mars is in my Virgo house (pets) activating my stellium (Sun/Uran/Pluto), transit Mars is also activating my natal Neptuner (which happens to be conjunct all my Egyptian kitty cat asteroids- and opposite my Leo stuff.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As I write this, Saggo Moon is quintile Neptune and Mercury is quintile Uranus.

Please join me in dark moon blessing for our Mother Earth and all Earthkind.
We depend on Gaia, we must defend her as well.

The New Moon is Monday in Aquarius.
Visualize, initiate and manifest changes that will heal.

New Moon in Aquarius is an electric, magnetic vibe

Moon rules the public.
All one.

As our Moon and our blessings grow to full ~ our collective thought energies will create change.

the face of the Earth

Posted on by

As the palms of the hand or placement of moles on the body tell tales of the life of a human, meteorite falls speak the history and future of Gaia.

Chinese face reading is based on the same ancient science as acupuncture, references have been found in texts that date back to 600 B.C.E.  The study is based on the micro/macro universe, meaning each part of the body is a representation of the whole.

The face is broken up into zones of life: hairline is adolescence, forehead 20’s, eyes 30’s, nose 40’s, mouth 50’s, chin 60’s, jaw 70’s, sides of face 80’s & 90’s, bottom of chin 99/100.

The top third portion of the face is the analytical zone, the middle is the practical zone, and the bottom third is the intuitive zone.

The right side of your face is the public side, the left is the private side, what you keep to yourself.

Chinese face reading considers anything that sticks out on the face a sign of good luck.  For instance, most moles are considered good luck, they are extra metal – metal refines, it is inward moving energy, contracting and hardening.  Metal represents the time of late fall and old age.

Any scars on the face have the effect of diminishing the power that feature symbolizes.  For instance a scar on the chin would decrease willpower, a scar on the eyebrow would decrease self – confidence.  (A unibrow signifies an overabundance of pushy wood energy, a tendency towards bossiness, frustration and anger.)

It is interesting to note my Mother and I each have a mole above our eyebrow.  Mine is above my left (private), hers is above her right (public).  She has a chart that is very nearly a grand sextile and she enjoys groups, clubs etc…  I have Neptune (the hidden) most highly aspected, Sun conjunct rebellious Uranus, and I do my own thing.
I. don’t. do. groups. or clubs. or etc.. haha
(The only herd I belong to is its own indescribable chaotic masterpiece.)


Barringer Crater, east of Flagstaff, AZ

Mountains are Yang – masculine, active, outgoing energy.
Day, conscious awareness.

Valleys are Yin – feminine, reactive, introverted energy.
Night, unconscious instinctual awareness.

Barringer Crater (yin) is located in the middle third (practical zone – builders and steady achievers *), on Arizona’s (ground standpoint) left half (privately owned crater), on the right (public or famous) half of the United States.

*Daniel Moreau Barringer’s struggle to prove the impact origin of his crater is an example of the enormous difference that one determined individual can make – even if that individual is a non-scientist working to change the prevailing scientific view. His story tells us about the importance of intuitive leaps, careful data-gathering, stubbornness, and even self-interest in the progress of science.

The native Saguaro cactus are found in the lower third of Arizona, the intuitive (water) zone.  Saguaro can absorb hundreds of gallons of water during a storm, sometimes weighing up to 3 tons.  They are only found in the Sonoran desert (SW Arizona, part of Baja, California).
Arizona means ‘small spring’, the state motto is “Ditat Deus” or, God Enriches, it is largely known for being the Grand Canyon or Copper state.

When considering the ‘scar’ or crater…the meteor fell 50,000 years ago during the last ice age.  Arizona is ruled by Aquarius, the sign traditionally ruled by both Saturn (earth and time) and Uranus (sudden surprises).   Saturn also rules falling and rocks.

In Chinese face reading, the placement of a scar (age zone) will be when the issue or lesson will be re-addressed in the life.  Around 50,000 years ago humans began building more efficient tools, and making art to bury with their dead.  Linguists surmise it may be language that made the leap possible.

Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury (communication), so perhaps when humans start communicating telepathically, via the earth energy grid, we will have learned the lesson of the crater.

The above is a map of US meteorite finds + falls as of July, 2009.
The map below is world-wide falls as of 2000.

Keep in mind that the earth is covered by 70 % water, and many craters are under the sea, only detectable by satellite imaging.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Recent worldwide meteorite falls (click here – takes time to load)

Most of the world-wide landmass strikes have been above the Tropic of Cancer, the upper third of the world (analytical).  The falls seem pretty evenly divided on either side of the prime meridian, so that’s a toss up.

One could always read the landfalls like tea leaves…I see a boomerang or maybe a kangaroo with a long tail in Australia.
It could be divination through meteorite ‘constellations’…!
Connect the dots, study and make your myth.
I also find it interesting that Hollyweird is about as right (public, famous) as it gets in the US, and in the lower third (intuitive Neptune/film zone) of California.

So what do you think ? 
What do read in your face and on the face of our earth..?

Listed below are the major 2012 meteor showers visible during the night where the expected Zenith Hourly Rate (ZHR) of meteors will be 10 or more, or where the rate may be variable.

Since more meteors are always seen after midnight, these dates are the best mornings to observe.

Much more geology and meteorite impact info here (click).

Transiting Venus (which is conjunct transiting Neptune) is opposite the degree between my natal Venus/Jupiter conjunction (that square Neptune) in the 8th at the moment…snap !

Divination post !

Neptune is waterfalling all over the place, and Neptune rules divination.
Pluto also rules divination / metaphysics and by transit is square my Saturn (earth), which is my chart ruler.
ta da !  Earth divination !  …enjoy…  & stay tuned, the actor’s chart I am doing next has a connection with this crater !

Lastly, for the record, I don’t think we are going to die from a giant meteor strike, giant comet, giant aliens, etc… I just love science and divination !

New Moon in Capricorn December 24, 2:06pm CST, USA.

New Moon brings a fresh cycle, increase of light and energy.
Set intentions for your future according to the moon in Capricorn.

Capricorn is eons of earth (material world) crystallization.
Honor yourself, others and the Earth with Moon in Capricorn.
Make long-range plans, practice ritual, conserve and be disciplined.
This moon favors business and career, workings that will produce at a delay or long-term.

Capricorns Use  their Time wisely.

What does the phase of the moon at your birth tell you..?  click here.

The breath is a mantra spoken 26,000 times a day.

The past is behind us, the future is unformed and the present unfolds quickly.
Detach, accept the impermanence of all things.

The breath is born (inhale).
The breath lives (oxygen in our blood).
The breath dies (exhale).

Each inhalation is cleansing, each exhalation a release of the old and impure.

The old gives way to the new.
This is nature’s way.

Envision your life renewed with each inhalation of breath.
