Your Place in the World

For those of you that are trying to find your place in the world and have become restless in this pursuit, be certain that there is a calling that is just meant for you. Many of you move forward with your professions or return to school to further your education; yet you still wonder what your journey might entail. Do you take a position that is being offered? Do you move in a different direction? Know that regardless of the worldly importance connected to your job, you are making a difference. The work you carry out is important and certainly has its place. The people that you touch within this framework hold far greater relevance than the actual job. Whether these people actually see or know you is not important. We are not in our roles simply for recognition.

If you find yourself in the trades, or working at a job such as a waitress serving others doing what must be done with superiors ever watching over your shoulder, know that this is okay. It is all part of the process even though the bosses, patrons, clients, whoever they may be, do not show appreciation. You are here to do a job or a service. Do your best and do not worry about what others think. This is all part of your learning process and the obstacles and challenges you meet along that road are not barriers to overcome, they are testing grounds for higher learning connected to your spiritual evolution.

You are serving your purpose through your daily regime, in the constant movement from one day to the next. Rather than becoming bored or unsatisfied in your occupation as the mind always gravitates to higher ground and wants more, be happy and know that all things in life are temporary and each one of our experiences are prerequisites to furthering who we are as an individuals.

Pay attention to the daily routine, and practice the art of being kind and helpful. See the benefits start to unfold. Most people will pick up on this attitude; regardless of how menial or meaningful you are to the people you work with. Think of your employees and employers as working mates and treat them the way that you would like them to treat you. Undoubtedly there will always be that one renegade worker bound and bent to inflict hardship on everyone, but take a moment and think about their life. Why are they so intent on bringing others down? Misery always needs company. Depression is a lonely place and many believe through some twisted concept that by making others unhappy, they will raise their own happiness. Unfortunately, as you know, by sending out to the universe nothing but contempt, you can only expect more of the same.

Today when you make your way to work, stop for a moment and focus on how fortunate you are in your world. If you are on the receiving end of some form of disarray, stand tall and acknowledge the universal lesson you are learning. Once learned, a change will eventually occur. Be happy! Share happiness and it will be plentifully returned.

Nodes in the Houses - Astrology

In a previous post on September 19, 2013, we discussed the Moon’s Nodes second return. We will discuss the Moon’s Nodes in the houses in this segment. There are two nodes of the Moon, the north node and the south node. The north node represents the “un”-trodden path that we have chosen in this lifetime. It is the path chosen by our higher self to generate as much enlightenment into our consciousness as possible in this incarnation. The aspects to this node represent the challenges and obstacles we will need to overcome in order to find this route and the easiest assistance we will gain in mastering our destiny’s calling.

The South node is representative of the past or previous incarnation and what we have brought over with us to assist us in our new journey. In the very least, it is the abilities that come natural to us. The north node is a road not previously traveled while the south node is a road well known. As a result, following our destiny can be somewhat difficult as entering into the unknown is always a difficult step to take.

The traits and abilities represented by the south node are easy to fall back onto when the going gets tough. It is an area where there is little conflict. However, taking this easy route impedes our progress and basically halts any forward motion. The north node is a point in destiny that leaves us wide open to begin to cultivate the information and experiences needed to move us in our intended direction. It could be termed the steps needed in order to attain our spiritual conquest and the enlightened path.

The north node is our destiny and the route we must follow. As we take this flight, the higher forces assist us in maintaining a continued educational process, and help us uncover our potential by offering insights and conditions that will encourage us to continue on our developmental path. The north node is an ongoing adventure that may take many lifetimes to reach the culmination point, but we are all equipped with the needed ingredients to attest to this momentum. When we are experiencing difficulties and challenging situations in this life, this is when the north node’s route is opening and usually when we are faced with complications. This is when we can call on the ingrained knowledge that we have brought with us from previous incarnations or early life experiences.

There are twelve houses in Astrology and each house deals with a different area of life. The placement of the north node by house position tells us what direction that we are pursuing in this life and what specific areas of life will be activated in order for us to pursue and ultimately obtain our goals.

Let us assist you in transforming your life’s mission by uncovering your life’s calling. We can offer support and help you to align with your current purpose. By looking into the various aspects in your Natal Chart that either offer assistance or create hindrances to your overall growth, we can assist in helping you to move forward in your quest.

Love "Again"

Last week, we posted a thought and within this message something stood out which I found to be profound. I believe that our writings are trans-written through assistance from other forces and I often have to reread our writings once they have been posted in order to absorb the message. I would like to share these few words from the previous post with you again, as it moved something within me and it might do the same for you.

“Love is beyond all measure and cannot be scrutinized. It cannot falter and it never ends. Love is pure and cannot be filtered. The essence of love has no boundaries and encompasses everything. Even impurity can be transformed through the spirit of love. Nothing is untouchable and everything is within loves reach.”

I hope you find these few words as inspirational as I do. I am thankful for the words that flow through me. These thoughts flow from a force beyond our limited sight, and yet link with us every step of the way.

Open up to the purity of love, and let it radiate into everything you touch in life.

What Change Should YOU Facilitate?

If you had the ability to change just one thing (anything) in our world, what would it be?

Please share your thoughts!

Join Hands with Yourself

As you know, we mold our reality through our thoughts and expectations. By understanding this, you capture your life’s essence by molding your life through your own manifestations. Focus on the good in your life and never dwell on the negative. Experience it! You were meant to go through each trial and tribulation, but you were not meant to become a slave to any personal experiences. It is always your choice to hold on or to learn and let go.

Life is the teacher, and you are the student. Roll with the twists and turns and become adaptable. Absorb the teachings then move on.

Practice self-promotion! Believe in yourself. You have what it takes. Why else would you be living the life you are living? You are here to grow spiritually and here to learn about life--to eventually become love. You are here to master your own destiny and become your best friend. Love what you are at the core, and know that this person is you. You will eventually find that individual. Practice self-forgiveness and know that you are part of the divine.

We are here to join hands with our whole, our source and to learn that we are one. We are moving together in one mind and in conjunction with the greater whole. You do your part by being a source of love and being happy; everything else follows naturally. Your life is in your hands. You hold the key, and you are the answer. Never let go of this, and never give up. You always sustain that which you are part of, and you can never lose sight of your goal.

Sextile between Neptune and Pluto in the Astrology Chart

The sextile (an aspect of opportunity) between Neptune and Pluto has been in effect from the late 1940’s and lasts approximately 100 years; therefore, most everyone alive today is affected by this connection. The outer planets move very slowly. As a result, the aspects to the outer planets are generational. The strongest affects would have been felt from the inception of the aspect into the early 1990’s. During most of this period, the orb of this aspect was only out by no more than 4 degrees, and anyone who has this aspect in there Natal Chart within a couple of degrees would be strongly influenced by it.

This is considered a strongly mystical connection and if the rest of the Chart agrees, this individual would be very sensitive to outside influences, and would be able to pick up the subtlest of vibrations from those around them. They would have a mystical lean and clairvoyant ability as well as psychic inclinations. Most with this aspect being tight in the Natal Chart would have a very creative streak. They will be required to act and respond to life’s situations merely by the use of their intuition. Watch for the aspect between these two planetary giants becoming direct (moving into a tight orb, or distance from one another) during progression as these abilities we refer to will surface or intensify.

These are idealistic people that believe in themselves and depend primarily on themselves. They are highly motivated, self-initiative and self-contained, unless the Chart dictates otherwise through other contacts or placements. They will seize opportunities, and because of the sextile, will have the potential to make things work and to be in the right place at the right time. They truly believe they are an instrument of ethic and moral standards. They will try their best to be a motivational factor for others. There are some that pave the way for others and appear to be extreme individuals. They are “all in” or “not in at all”. There are no half measures with these individuals that choose to pursue their calling. They consider life a major challenge, but will move forward with a positivity that often assists them in their endeavours.

On the negative side, some lack perspective and their high ideals can be centred on their own egotism. They become so self-reliant that they will not take advice and they believe that their way of thinking is the only way and all others should mirror their belief structure. They become so closed in their thinking that they only will rely on “self”. As a result, they close the door to furthering their evolutionary path. They are, however, usually very honest and forthright and will be admired for this by many.

The individuals that display either side of these qualities have a commonality in that they will attempt to stimulate the evolutionary process through self-exploration and will progress towards that given goal, with thoughts of aiding humanity and bringing people together. However, as expressed in the beginning of this post, these individuals must have other factors within the framework of their personal Birth Chart to use these facets to their fullest. Everyone, however, has the potential to awaken this mystical leaning inherent in us all.

NOT SPIRITUAL ENOUGH?

For those of you who have been travelling down your mission’s road, do you ever wonder if you have what it takes? Have you ever questioned your own spiritual nature and wondered if you are transcendent enough or have the ingrained requirements to venture this path? Yes; you know you are on a spiritual pursuit, but you keep venturing off course and faltering.

It is important to try to stay focused and concentrate on living the right life for you, but you are not on trial, and you are not being judged. You walk your road as does everyone else in this life, on your intended path, always on course, never faltering. Each turn in the road is anticipated by your greater whole or true self. Each road block comes along to help you with the lessons you have come to learn.

Your mission is to find yourself amongst the turmoil, through life’s profound and insistent teachings set out long before your emergence here in physical form. Know that you are on course and each event that you encounter is part of the process. You may feel you have made mistakes and perhaps you have, but this is not important. All you need to do is get up again and use your intestinal fortitude to move yourself forward.

You have come here to be happy and enjoy life, to learn by living it, and by experiencing it. Through these internal struggles, become motivated to continue no matter what lies ahead and without expectation. Life is what it is. You will go through your share of challenging situations, but you will rise above these concerns and pick up what is require for your growth.
