The Road to Discovery Part I

Without imagination, inspiration would not have a catalyst.  Artists use their imagination to create magnificent pieces of work.  This is the starting point.  It is where the idea begins to manifest.  When it comes to imagination and psychic potential, the gap is very narrow.  As a result, it is important to examine our messages to ensure that we are not putting our mental thoughts into the message.  Are we receiving from our mind, our imagination or both?

How do you tell the difference? 

When spirit is speaking through us or our higher self is communicating to us, for most of us, the communication differs from the ego.  Again, the receipt of information is different from how we carry on a conversation with ourselves.  When we use our imagination and pay attention to how we converse internally, the words are normally defined in time frames no different from a communication between two people.  We hear the words and each one is separated by time.  A sentence or a thought may take seconds and sometimes even minutes to unfold, while communication on the spiritual level happens without any passage of time.  Everything is said and completely understood in a spit second.  It is as though it happens in an instant and even if the process should otherwise be drawn out, you understand what is being conveyed immediately.  Please remember, we are speaking in general terms and this may vary from one individual to another.

This is part of the problem when we are hearing spirit speak to us as in most cases it sounds like our own inner voice, but if you truly examine the message there actually is no voice, as words and voice are earthly and message from spirit cannot be described as “earthly”.  Because the messages are not of this place, it is almost impossible to describe them with words. 

Similarly, when we try to describe something that we are seeing, it is not of this place so although we see it, in general we do not see spirit as we see everyday visuals, although again with some individuals there are exceptions even to this.  Sometimes we see spirit as flashes or movements.  Once again, it is almost impossible to define because when we say flashes or movement it is not as we would terms these things in our earthly way of expressing them, but there are no clearer words to describe it.

There are some individuals who do see spirit in forms that are very much like that which we see when we see people of this earth, although generally there is something different that helps us distinguish between material people and spiritual energy. 

Generally, some of us see spirit as a bluish material or cloud-like.  Others have described them as orbs, round circles and bluish in colour.  Still others see a cloudy material as thought the room is smoky with the energy of these higher sources.

Their words are direct, yet it is very subtle, almost not noticeable at all.  As a matter of fact, in general, the whole experience of psychic phenomena is extremely subtle and almost unnoticeable.  Of course, the experiences can vary somewhat from person to person.
  
Address all conditions entering your life with some type of questioning.  It is healthy to have some scepticism and not to follow anything blindly.  We are our own best guides, and we will learn in our own way and in our own time.  One thing is for certain, you cannot rush the experience.  All things happen as they should and they will never happen before we are ready for them, even if you believe the contrary. 

Monday, we will continue with our road to discovery topic.

Transits Within Transits in Astrology

In the past we discussed the importance of transits linked to our natal chart.  It is also important to add that transits that are connected to other transits also play an important role in our lives.  For instance we have had in the recent past, Pluto transiting in the sign of Capricorn square to transiting Uranus in the sign of Aries.  Currently these contacts are out by about 3 degrees which is still relevant and will intensify and be within one and one-half degrees of one another towards the end of 2015.  They were more tightly intertwined particularly towards the end of 2014-through to early spring of this year.

Uranus and Pluto together are a powerful force and are suggestive of a drive towards the new, through transformation that runs deep into our very psyche.  It reaches our core and will push out issues from the past that have been dormant or pushed aside.  This contact will ask that we deal with these buried issues appropriately now.  In many cases these issues have had effects on us for much of our lives and had their origin in our childhood.

Uranus with Pluto will push these issues out into the open for viewing from a new perspective and they will force us to move forward and usually in an aggressive approach so we will act.  These issues will stem from deep inside and need to be acknowledged and then released so that a new approach from the ashes of what has been left behind can become our building block for the new voyage forward.  The lesson may be difficult and it may be challenging to address but it is a necessity that we look at the issues with clear insight and see where they stem from so we can move ahead with our lives.  In some cases these issues have been a hindering factor and we need to put them to rest and in their appropriate place.

Uranus tells us it is time to move in a new direction and open our eyes to the truth.  It wants us to venture forward without fear of ridicule even if others feel that we are behaving somewhat erratic and out of our normal character.  Pluto reaches deep within for the answers and pushes us to release ourselves from the grips of the past.  The changes could be classified as revolutionary and once we move forward and past our preconceived notions of what was into what is, the transformations can have profound effects on our being and once accepted can also be permanent and fixed into our psyche.

The changes are positive in their nature although often very disruptive, but they are required changes.  Digging up the truth might be challenging but it is necessary in order to move beyond any limitations that they were imposing.  Now is the time to dig deep and find the resolutions that we need.

To understand the areas that might be influenced in your life, look to see which houses transiting Pluto and transiting Uranus are moving through.  You will also have to check to see which natal houses Uranus and Pluto are located in.  These will all be areas that will be affected.  Remember that if these transiting planets are forming an aspect to the natal planet, it will activate any aspects connected to the natal planets involved in the transit.  For example, if transiting Uranus is in conjunction with natal Jupiter and natal Jupiter is also in aspect to Saturn and Mars, the effects of transiting Uranus will not be complete until it has finished making aspects not only to Jupiter but also to Saturn and Mars.

The Mind's Focus

In our quest for understanding, it is important to realize the part our mind’s focus plays.  The mind tends to create not only our immediate surroundings but also the events that show up in our future.  In other words, we are constantly creating the next adventure through unconscious awareness and conscious focus.  Our thoughts, expectations and attitude have GREAT power!

This unfolding process in its infancy always begins with our perception and gradually materializes one step at a time.  We are molding our tomorrows by the mental building blocks and foundations we are pouring today.  Belief structures manifest our reality and our expectations materialize over time.

This might seem far-fetched when we begin to question the nature of reality, but over time we begin to realize that this is in fact the case.  Our expectation slowly unfolds over time.  It is not that we think about something and then it materializes instantaneously, although the potential eventually at some point in time might be just that.  We gradually manifest many of our realities.  Belief structure plays an important role in this process, so it is important to always place our focus in positive areas.

We draw to us what we concentrate on.  It is as simple as that.  If we stray from our positive focus and concentrate on any form of negativity, we are slowly manifesting this focus into our life.  The creative process is an unfolding story and we have the decision on which course of action, or mental focus we are to follow. 

If you make mistakes and repeated tell yourself that you are stupid, even if only as a reaction, you are programming yourself to believe that you are stupid.  This WILL have repercussions over time.  As mentioned, our reality manifests slowly, so if we venture off course now and then, which is quite normal, we will not create a continual negative state in our lives.  Repeated negative habits and focus are what we want to be aware of for these are the creators of a negative state of life. 

The more we understand and accept in this process, the more we begin to see the ramifications of our thoughts and expectations.  It also becomes easier to focus our attention as we become familiar with this process.  We can train our minds through gratitude and love.  In reality, it is an amazing opportunity we have been given and we are fortunate enough to have this realization.  If this process were not for us to learn and appreciate, it would not be in front of us now.  The longer we reject this idea, the stronger our egos’ hold becomes.  Non-belief will not stop the process as nothing can alter the truth, but we are then at the mercy of our ego and risk the manifestation of negativity to rule our journey.

The first step is to accept responsibility for your life, then build your future with the power of your positive thoughts and gratitude.  Focus on having the intention of creating the best possible scenario for your live and those around you.  It is also important to keep in mind that your thoughts gradually do materialize and this manifestation affects you as well as those around you.  We can take our focus one step further to world peace, balance and love for all. 

We are in control of our destiny through our attitude and expectation; therefore, we can build our life on a solid foundation and create a world of peace that not only nurtures us individually, but fosters this on a grand scale for everyone.

Pluto in Retrograde Motion

Pluto moves in and out of retrograde several times each year.  It is in retrograde for several months at a time each year.  It has been in retrograde since April 17, 2015 and remains in retrograde until September 25.

Transiting Pluto is a powerhouse in the horoscope and it intensifies in strength when it makes aspects to the natal chart or the progressed chart.  The orb in the transit of Pluto should be no more than 2 degrees, while in progressions it is most significant when it comes within 15 minutes of being direct.  When Pluto moves into the retrograde motion its affects intensify and becomes very powerful.  The transformational abilities linked to Pluto increase and the regenerative abilities are enhanced.  Any power struggles can also become much more apparent when in retrograde so it is wise to avoid interaction that could lead to intense situations.

It may be very challenging to avoid life situations that require change especially when Pluto transits a planets while in retrograde.  It could be considered a time for cleansing and a time to release any worn-out or outdated attitudes that you have fostered and hold onto.  It is the same idea as addressing and revising a list that needs updating to reflect information that is more meaningful and relevant in your life today.

It is a good time for inner research and investigation and for digging up of issues that have been buried for far too long.  It might not always be pleasant what you initially find but these challenging conditions will need to be confronted and dealt with eventually.  Any patterns in your life that have reached a state of uncontrolled persistence can best be addressed now, challenged, and then changed, usually on a permanent basis.

Much depends on the house Pluto is transiting and also the house that Pluto is located in, in the natal chart as these will be areas of life that will experience Pluto’s transformative energies.  You may be forced to challenge any issues you dig up and bring to the surface.  An example might be communicative challenges if transiting Pluto is moving through the third house or if natal Pluto resides in this house.  Also you should look to see where Pluto’s ruling sign (Scorpio) is found as this will also indicate where these changing conditions might become apparent.

Those with Pluto retrograde at birth are known to have great recuperative abilities and they can withstand illnesses that might be considered permanent for many others.  You should also have a look at how Pluto is aspected in the natal chart and the aspects linked to the planets that transiting Pluto is making aspects to during its cycle to see how these areas of life along with the energies associated with the planets involved will affect the overall conditions of this very significant transit of Pluto.

In general, it is a good time to get in touch with any issues that need cleansing and to identify your inner needs.  It is a time for inner evaluation and transformation that usually take a year or two to unfold.  It is also a good time to begin exercise programs and detoxifying diets that help cleanse the body along with the spirit. 

Enjoy the rather intense transformation that often takes place as Pluto moves into direct and retrograde motion affecting planetary links and important positions in your birth chart.

Hard Lessons

After all this talk about positive thinking, channeling the mind, handling negative circumstances that crop up in our lives, etc., it still seems to be a human nature reaction to stress when good people experience challenging lessons, whether it be yourself, someone you love or a total stranger. 

The road of life certainly has a tendency to push and pull us in different ways.  Without exception all of us have difficulties and hard roads to follow throughout our lives.  When one thinks of karma, it is easier to accept difficulties for those groups of people we label as corrupt and karma seems just.  It somehow seems right as it is apparent that their karma is of their own making.  This line of thinking also creates difficultly when we see individuals that we label as “good” people, especially children, who are experiencing major trials and lessons in their lives.

It can be very hard to openly accept the lessons and the “fairness” when we see the difficulties that some individuals go through.  The belief of reincarnation can assist with our acceptance but some of us even question, why karmic debts are carried forward into a lifetime that does not recall the debt owed.
  
We infer that in either case these lessons are necessary for the soul’s growth.  As mere mortals with our limited comprehension, it is difficult to understand, but acceptance and faith eases the confusion and heartache. 

Our reaction to life’s events remains a personal choice and time spent dwelling and reflecting on these issues is also a personal choice.  Life will happen with or without our approval.  Acceptance lightens the burden.  At some point, we will understand, but until that day, accept and move forward with your journey keeping your mind wide open to all possibilities. 

The truth shall be revealed to us all someday, but until then, allow acceptance to life to flourish.

Nature and All of Its Splendor

You say that you want to explore and live your life to the fullest.  When was the last time you had a few minutes alone in nature?  There is a calming effect that nature emits which truly cannot be enjoyed elsewhere.  Take a walk in the woods.  Take a walk along a beach away from the crowds and the hustle and bustle of the world and your busy day.  Take in all of the splendor nature has to offer.  There is nothing quite like it and nothing calms you as nature can. 

There are still spots, although very limited, that are untouched by man or at least this is how it seems.

As we all know, if we break anything down on a fundamental level we are all the same including all that is in nature.  It is no wonder we feel so at home and at peace when surrounded by all that is natural. 

Are you searching for God?  Take a look around you (although you don’t have to find nature to discover God).  Nature is certainly reflective of God’s presence.

Take a few minutes this weekend or this evening to explore a little of Mother Nature’s glory.  Allow its calming effects to penetrate your day’s experience.  Allow nature’s serene energy to slip in even the tiniest of cracks of your being.  There is nothing like it.  Nature’s calm can penetrate into the core of most any less than positive issue as it gently circulates peace and serenity.  What a true blessing.

Some of us are lucky enough to enjoy Nature close up and personal.  For those who have the magnificent view of the mountains at your door step, is it not amazing how it makes you feel so insignificant yet the energy totally encompasses you?  A mountain emits power on a unique level, a level that man could never hope to accomplish and it does this without any attempt to do so.  It just is.  We can all learn something from this.  We can understand that in order to reach purity and fullness, we just need to let things be and unfold, to let life take us on our journey.  This is not to say that we sit back and wait for life to unfold.  We do have the ability to push in different directions and accomplish, but in the overall scheme of things, life does lead our way.

Enjoy the peace that Nature effortlessly shares.  Feel its warmth, its gentleness and its power and know that it is part of you and you are part of it.  These qualities that nature seems to naturally shroud us with can also be found within.  We do not have to search too deeply to find this feeling as it is ours naturally whenever we decide to feel it.  Love and compassion are our birthrights and nature mirrors the way.  It just is and it just manifests naturally.  We have the power of thought.  With this powerful tool, we can manifest any reality that we wish for ourselves.  It is a natural by-product of life and we control our destiny through our interaction with life.  We choose the expression we want to convey and adopt in our journey.

We are all one; this includes nature and its finest expression.  If nature can be so beautiful and bountiful, so can we.  It may take time to manifest but as nature grows leaves and produces the fruit of life regularly and naturally, so can we produce the fruits of our labour. 

It has taken us a life time to create our reactions to life.  It will take more work before we experience the unfolded story of our tomorrow, but we are constantly building upon it.  Today, let us focus our energies on today.  If you do not like what we see, we change our focus or change our attitude towards our expression of truth.  It IS in our hands.  Start your creation now!
