now, many of you may wonder . . . 'elaine doesn't even use the gregorian calendar anymore, why is she writing about that time cycle?' . . . i write about it because it is the time sequence the prevailing world exists on, and if you do not understand the energy of that sequence, you can never bring that energy into a new time sequence -- your timing, your existence, your journey's sequence. bringing energy, money, whatever, into the world you live in because you are doing what you love.
besides, this is the time we begin to feel the pull of the new energy we are being pulled toward in 2010. think about how much energy is built up to the new year cycle. just think about the fact that almost all corporate financial sequences begin again each 01 january. this is the time when the pull from future is definitively stronger than the pull from the past (unless of course, you are running with a severe temporal deficit, then the past is probably overwhelming you, but that's a discussion for another day!).
working to maintain 'beingness' in this futuristic magnetism stream is a challenge as we make so many future plans ... what am I going to be Halloween? what do I want from Santa Claus? And, the push from our external environment to be future orientated is a blessing if you use that time connection while maintaining the ground to this present moment of being.
2010 is a 3 year . . . but its a 3 year after a master 11 vibration 2 year, which 2009 still has to play out. that master 1-1 is that which one must walk fully and completely in the being that is you.
so, 9 months done, are you a master or are you still thinking you *should* be one, or trying to convince yourself that you are one . . . or are you simply a master. masters no longer have to try, they just do it. 3 more months of training and discipline, and this is where you can believe in just about anything to be possible, as we are being pulled into a year of manifestation.
the 3 vibration is, obviously, related to the trinity, the triangle ... when that which consists of "god" came together to exist as "god" in the form prescribed and optimized for existence in this third dimension. less singularly in belief structure, 3 is the manifestation of the sum of the parts in the third dimension, call it god, the cosmos or merely our feeble attempts to understand our existence and connection to that which is infinite or is, perhaps, only chaos under our defined terms.
so, as you consider today what you want to manifest in 2010, ask yourself these questions . . . how would the person i am be if that which i am working to manifest was manifest today in this moment? 'act it until you are it' . . . besides practice makes perfect, even when it comes to being you.
peace & harmony,

A play on the phrase "voodoo economics" coined by G.H.W. Bush back in the 1980's, the "business voodoo" blog is where I publish my symbol-related musings and other thoughts relating to both individual and collective human structures of vibration, time and space.

Living Sidereally in a Tropical World No. 2
DUK: There are no rules in life. So make your own and live by them, you'll be happiest that way.
No. 2: The Seed of Conception
If you can know the 'seed' of conception, the source of the fruit, the full intention of the truth, you may be one step closer to understanding the answer to "why?"
In business, there is the time the idea is born and then the time the idea is 'incorporated' and the interaction between those two energies is knowledge that one must understand to be successful.
Similarly, running a transit chart for your birth's conception gives a "snap shot" of what was being planted into the natal chart. If you are one of those moms who know when you conceived, this is the kind of information that astrologers can use, so keep that information in the baby book!
On personal levels, take a look at the psychology of the relationship between the seed and the birth. Was the fruit born out of the seed of love, commitment, dreams, hope, faith, conflict, power struggles, insecurity, desperation, guilt . . . you name it. A good dose of all of it was sown into you in order to transform and elevate the family's survival and evolution on all levels. While you are an individual, you are still human and humans have that intense and basic need to survive, your family thread can sometimes be cut, but its still the same thread.
Success in this world requires an integrated being on all levels of existence. Leave one of the levels out, and well, there's this saying about "a couple of cards short of a full deck." In which case, you will find yourself working against the "deadly sins" rather than rowing gently down the stream in the dream that is your life.
Flipping out of the matrix contraption requires a new navigation system. The poles have shifted -- or rather, will shift whenever you are ready for them to do so -- and before you know where you are going in this reality you want to create, you have to understand and know where your "center of gravity" is. [Ref. Ouspensky's "The Fourth Way."]
In astrology, its the cardinal compass points of the zodiac. And, just using basic astrology, the midheaven can really stand for your external achievements, career, standing in society, etc. The nadir or opposite of that, would be your internal grounding and the depths of your roots. "The deeper the roots, the taller the tree."
Looking at the Ascendant and Descendant axis, the questions comes to balance of "me" and "the other." "Do unto others as you would have them do to you," and "be the change you wish to see," and "you reap what you sow," all those realizations can instantly change your perception on any number of levels at any moment in time. The balance between "you" and "the other" . . . moving into this Aquarian age, this becomes a major point of transition.
We are coming from Pisces culture programming, and the end of it at that, so there is the best of teachings and the worst of its teachings, and that's why our choices are OUR choices and not our parents, etc., and our choices need to be clear and aligned with our highest good for our survival and that of our children.
Finding that balance and the imbalance of your "programming" is the goal of viewing the "conception" transits, and applying that information to the shifts in your "zodiac compass."
If you make the decision to "be" in the reality you want to create, you have to know how to navigate and read your compass.
peace & harmony,

No. 2: The Seed of Conception
The more we understand, the less we fear.
The less we fear, the more we risk.
The more we risk, the more we trust.
The more we trust, the more we love.
(from "Practicing the Sacred Art of Listening," by Kay Lindahl)

How to be fully you while being fully integrated into the whole?!

Adrift in the After Life of the Titanic
The Titanic is sinking. You are sitting in a row boat with several other people. This is the new reality, what now?
There is never an easy answer when you are working in the world of symbols until hindsight can reveal the truth from a new perspective. At best, we can glean a glimpse of understanding in the present moment from the symbols we see and their connection in life. Because life is what each of us gives our own unique definition to that which we experience -- truly the meaning of symbols are in the eye of the holder.
The "given" meaning of symbols sometimes mean very little until life experience provides a backdrop for a connection to the collective definitions we give to one symbol or another. To some, something as simply as nursery rhyme can provide the ultimate direction in life:
For others, its just a song we sing as children and it has no meaning. But, if you will and see it as such, all our experience in our world is, in essence, a symbol. You are a symbol of your presently incarnated history, perception, understanding and knowledge. Everything you experience is a symbol.
The Sabian symbols are a new tool I've begun to integrate in my synthesis of astrological symbols, and the Sabian symbology for the current Neptune-Jupiter-Chiron conjunction, which planets are sidereally calculated today at Aquarius 2º28", 2º1", and 2º11", respectively, is:
The synthesis of this conjunction is that which expands or digs deeper into the illusion or the illumination of cosmic truth for the self to heal. Jupiter which took the wounded centaur, Chiron, is his patron. Jupiter placed Chiron in the stars after Chiron sacrificed himself for Prometheus, hence ending his immortal suffering. Neptune provides a cosmic infusion of cosmic haze in which this stellium is crafting a new reality to be revealed only after the haze is blown away.
Chiron is about the places in our lives that we are rejected just because of who we are. Chiron was rejected by his mother because although, being the son of Kronus (Saturn) he was born an immortal, he was born a centaur. From the cradle we are adjusted so that our expressions and actions are "acceptable." But it is in that cradle when we know ourselves the most intimately . . . what we truly think, what we truly desire to express, who we truly are. As we look now to try to heal the areas we rejected because of our socialization, we must focus our love to accept the parts of us that are us that may have not been what others accepted in us.
A tall order, and definitely one of those "easier said than done," but we have help. Neptune is the cosmic lover, and the planet that dissolves the illusions we have when it comes to our understanding of ourselves. Neptune knows no shame. If others are misunderstanding where you are coming from, laugh.
If its a stressful and serious time with a lot of old patterns of judgment and shame being experienced, Neptune may incite you to indulge in your favorite mind medication, but use this wisely. Medication must be undertaken with the intention of healing, not hiding. The negative affect of hiding through medication can amplify the illusions that have crafted this wound, and you may be digging a deeper hole and you may never find your way out.
Don't you wish you could have laughed at your parents the first time they shamed you because you just said how fake Uncle John's toupee looked? Everyone knew it was funny, probably even Uncle John, but you were shamed because you saw and expressed the humor of innocent observation. The shame is not in what you said, but they felt shame because of what they perceived as an intention you couldn't possibly have.
People do this to one another all the time. "You are guilty because you were doing X." When in reality all you were really doing was Y. But, because the other ascribed what would be their intention on your actions, the projection of shame and guilt results. As an adult, your best response is laughter. If you get on the defensive, you have to ask yourself why you are there? And then, go and take the memory trip to the place the wound began . . . likely that's back to your childhood. What triggered that defensive mechanism?
Tropically, the Sabian symbol at 27º Aquarius is:
Applying this healing process to the world that is entrenched in the prevailing energy of our time, is this symbol -- fresh violets in a place where the old is revered, honored and sacred -- and held onto.
Being the breath of fresh air and a shocking bit of the "new vision" for those still living in the reality that is the past (the one that no longer works), reveals this is a time for you to grace that reality with burst of color, life and truth that only you can embody.
So many of us who have become aware of what we are to do, this is the time to do it no matter the ridicule, judgment, shame or guilt others use to cripple our movement, growth and healing. They need us to be bold, obnoxiously and perhaps even laughably ourselves. If they take you wrong, laugh at the absurdity of their projections of your intentions! Soon, they too will recognize how far from the truth they were, and will laugh along with you. For those that do not, you will help them best by "keep on keeping on" in the journey that is unapologetically your's!
peace & harmony,
elaine
