What’s Going to Happen with the Eclipse?

What’s Going to Happen with the Eclipse?

What’s Going to Happen with the Eclipse?

From my Astro perspective eclipses are Faded Events. What are Faded Events? There is somewhat of a strobe light quality where time feels to speed up, though nothing, or very little, is missed in the interstice, those little voids of the spaces between. Interestingly, time feels to speed up in Faded Events, though in actuality I see it as slowing down. Slowing down to sync with the everything of what is happening such that one actually experiences the synapses, too, the space between the notes. And, I see the interstice, the space between the notes, or better the Psychic Synapse as 50% of each neural act. The neuron loads, fires leap-of-faith-style across the synapse. The unseen in the void is 50% of the heart of the matter, and may very well BE the heart of the matter. Then, the neural leap lands on the next neuron, and a connection is made. Then, the unseen heart of the matter from the Unconscious, from the synapse AS the heart of the matter is one-third of the whole deal.

Back to the Eclipse

Back to the Eclipse. With the Eclipse conjunct Uranus in Taurus the status quo opens up, may even tectonically explode with Uranus being the Shaker-Upper. The gloves may be on, though the mask or persona is off. The natural Nature, whatever it is, emerges. Period. You may be surprised. Maybe even terrified at the newness, may even feel blind-sided by it. Though, almost for certain, you will birth something new within that has a Must Urge to be brought into your external reality.

There are lots of butterfly-emerging-from-the-chrysalis indications. Lots of birth metaphors are present in the Eclipse in Taurus. The High Priestess, herself the temple AND that which is within the temple, may be a wondrous ally. Think and feel Pallas~Athena, aka Minerva nestling into your life under Astraea. They are the ultimate strategists. They tend to make Mars’ warring tendencies look like he is playing Tiddly Winks or checkers to their 3-level chess. Use this to make your actions more robust. Use this to discern value by making sure that whatever the heart of the matter is for you is rolled in as the driver for the actions you choose to take, or that occur to you. Being present and unthreatened without explanation are keys here.

Humpty Dumpty comes to mind. And, what will you do with what emerges after any given fall? And, more importantly, how will you facilitate the birth, the post-fall discovery? Humpy Dumpty fell from the wall, though isn’t that where the story really begins? What happens afterwards? What do you make happen? And/or, what simply happens?

Take Care with Uranus Present in the Mix

Take care with creative births in your life today and tomorrow and through the coming week. Odds are, they will stick around to be drivers in the next several years of your life and work. If you work with them like a gardener adjusts the walking path for special, new sprouts from naturalized perennials, you may very well reap wonders in your life in the coming days, weeks, months, and years.

There is a naturalized perennial quality to this Uranian Eclipse in Taurus.

Back to the Births of the Eclipse

~ Do you see the head of your creation crowning? Excellent! Proceed. Don’t waste trouble, and complete the newnesses into being.

~ Is the placenta wrapped around the neck of your new birth? Well, take care to untangle that thing with zeal and haste, though sync with just the right speed as you do. Play well in the sandbox with Uranus to induce the Water Bearer Magician of Aquarius. Nod in your magic as you literally pull the water out of thin air. Literally, be The Magician who pulls water out of thin air. Aquarius is the Water Bearer, though astrologically, it is an Air sign. Dial into the Both~And of that Aquarius quality with Air and Water. Nourish both the breath of life and water of life. Also, take care not to get overwhelmed by FICP. Functionally-Interrelated-Component-Part. There is complexity present. Though, navigate as you mind all the parts as they are interdependent. A change in one will affect a change in another. I suggest to take a nod to this thought: when you move, when you act, inside or out, be aware that when you shift focus you might also change scale. Roll with that.

~ Is your birth breach? Well, stay in there. It’s not birthed until it’s birthed. And, it’s most likely important to complete the birth process. Allow expectations to unfold and reconfigure your priorities. Stay in there and work to bring this new birth into life. The Operating Room may be messy, though your creative birth may thank you both soon and also long from now.

So, What’s Going to Happen with the Eclipse?

With the Eclipse, all in all be your own OB-GYN for your creativity, for your life. And/or be your own Birth Doula to stay in there and assure your births nourish Your Life, Your Way. Respect new ways to develop your growth as newly influenced by what comes into being. You may not know what it is until it’s born. Can you simply, with the Uranian concept of reasons being unreasonable, birth whatever is, and then nurture it into its own robust Nature to inform you differently?

Here’s a Double-Image, Visual Eclipse Story

Here are two images I find resonant with this Eclipse and being comfortable with the beautiful Uranian not-knowing. How do these two visual stories play along in the truth of your birth(s) beyond expectation(s)? How can you incorporate the space between the notes and synapses?

Uranus Breaking Through, Robustly Hatching, from Under Saturn’s Throne,

The Volcano Teaches About This Eclipse

The Volcano.

Its head in the clouds,

continually making new lands when it does,

its feet firmly planted in the abyss.

(paraphrased from The Life of Fire documentary [seen on Amazon Prime rather than PBS])

3 of Swords Revisited

3 of Swords Revisited

Over the years, when the 3 of Swords comes up, almost instantaneously I hear, “Oh shit! Heartbreak!”

First is the influence, which can be a wave crashing into you or your scene. Your responsibility is the wonderful response. Do you sense or do something? So you simply stand strong, stand your ground, and discern the influence? It’s possible to let things just pass by. Be careful, though. Life is what passes you by when you’re too busy making plans to avoid the wave-smashes. Life is what passes you by when you’re too busy assuming the expectation of things you’ve been told rather than thinking about them for yourself. The 3 of Swords in Tarot is a wonderful example of this.

If being hard on yourself actually worked as constructive criticism, it would have worked by now. Right? That’s a misinterpretation of stick-to-it-iveness. You don’t need to stick in there regardless, unless, for you whatever it is has the heart of the matter in it. No need for pros and cons or good or bad in a situation. That’s a bunch of ‘there are facts, damn facts, and then there are statistics’ bs.

There is no need to avoid not quitting. Rather than quitting or not quitting, ask:

~ What’s workable?

~ Where’s the workability? Is there any?

~ No workability?, then pay it nevermind.

~ Workability? Nods to that. what do you do about it?

good = favoritism. bad = shaming behavior.

Neither are in others’ best interest, certainly not yours.

Instead, what treasures do you hide in ‘good’ and ‘bad.’

So, The 3 of Swords

You are a Temple, inside and out. May you be and continue to become your own Temple inside and out as Tarot informs the intuition of your steps. Yup. that’s a long-form discipline of the ritual. It’s not a hassle or when will this end kind of thing. It can be Blisscipline, where the heart of the matter lives in the steps.

Always complete, never finished, lifelong.

3 of Swords Revisited

Over the years, when the 3 of Swords comes up, almost instantaneously, I hear, “Oh shit! Heartbreak!” ??? Now, how’s that? Swords are about air, intellect, thinking, communications. What’s with this heartbreak stuff? Yeah yeah, tradition and all. That’s what everyone teaches and all. It’s quite a lot like a person cutting the ends off the brisket before putting it in the oven because grandma did. Shaking my head. Grandma did it because her oven was too small back then.

Yup, That Heart is Big and Bold

Yup, that heart is big and bold in the 3 of Swords image, though to see it as heartbreak is much like banging your thumb with a hammer, when you have no hammer. This is a Swords card, not a Cup card. Why go straight to the heart with a Swords card? Especially, after the 2 may just have covered her heart to feed the heart of the matter up through the thoughts as a preamble support to develop into the 3 of Swords.

From my perspective the first thing that comes to mind (Swords pun) is to aspirate your heart. Give it some air. Consciously give your heart the breathing room it needs.

Heck. Sure, a heart without breathing room leads to heartbreak, though the heart in this card has plenty of breathing room, actually the whole scene. It is not constrained at all. It’s connected by Swords to the head. 2 of the swords are giving it oxygen like a bubbler in an aquarium, and one exhausts out the top like a roof vent. That’s more than decent ventilation so the head doesn’t get too stuffy with thoughts that don’t pulse and pump with the heart of the matter. I don’t see anything near heartbreak there. I see the head in connection with the heart. I see the heart of the matter present in thoughts and the process of thinking. And, if the heart of the matter is not present, thoughts are as useless as fish scales for dinner.

Give Your Heart Some Breathing Room

Aspirate Your Heart with the 3 of Swords

August 20, 2022 UPDATE! weekend sessions just opened up!

Thankful for the rain, so I headed inside to Zoom. Thankful for the Rain Special!

You can book your session here at more than half price.

Regularly $270 per hour. It’s Raining Special $125 per hour. Book Now.

Postscript:

When you focus on the ‘good’ or ‘bad’ of your fellows (yourself), you make an opening in your heart for maliciousness to enter. Testing, competing with, and criticizing others weakens and defeats you. (Every time you act, you command the Universe. Mind that. Create with that. Act with that. Make with that.)

~ Morihei Ueshiba, Founder of Aikido. Translation by John Stevens in The Art of Peace

Where’s the treasure in the trouble? Gold pan those nuggets and let the remaining alluvium wash back into the river. The snake its skin shedded, the snake its skin not missed.

Personally, to go with the 3 of Swords — I find judgment to be farcical as it it generated from bias and expectations. Justice? Heart weighed against a feather? Nods. That’s not that your heart weighs a pound or so to Ma’at. Justice weighing your heart against a feather is a question of whether your heart is bouyant enough to unweight the scale with a feather.

How do you actionably use the 3 of Swords to your benefit today?

To All Who Feel They Are Alone on Father’s Day

To All Who Feel They Are Alone on Father’s Day

To All who feel they are alone on Father’s Day, for whatever reason…

Haven’t you been through the image below? Where you weather your storm, and it washed through? And, you washed up on your shore after the storm had broken? I feel that’s what Dad’s teach you to learn how to do.

First is the influence. Your responsibility is the wonderful response. Do you sensate or do something, or simply stand strong, uninfluenced? It’s possible to let things just pass by. Be careful, though. Life is what passes you by when you’re too busy making plans to account for the wave-smashes. For a rainy day? lol, buy a Kevlar umbrella. Or, get an 8’ diameter umbrella and set up your own table and chairs on the Plaza.

Shame is deadly. And, since life is fatal, I have no need of that in the mix. Plus, if I make myself feel bad, I will typically make poorer quality decisions. That isn’t a necessary feature. I can make plenty of great mistakes on my own that fuel the process with new perspectives rather than desicating the FICP — functionally inter-related component parts — with shame. I’ll go ahead and say it. I find shame to be psychological excrement. Pick your toilet paper rather than re-ingesting that stuff.

If being hard on yourself actually worked as constructive criticism, it would have worked by now. Right? No need for pros and cons or good or bad in a situation. Moreso, what’s workable? Where’s the workability?

If being hard on yourself worked, wouldn’t it have worked by now? Right. So, can you stop that for your benefit?

good = favoritism, often missing what actually is to avoid and be in denial for some celebration instead of dialing in to not waste trouble. bad = shaming behavior, often missing what is in disconnected disassociation.

Your Life, Your Way… to always wash up on your own shore after the storm has broken

So, haven’t you completed the rite of passage of the child becoming the parent of the adult? Or, are you in the process of that? Nods to your courage. That’s more than important stuffstance. If you have no one else today, no Dad or Father, can you give yourself the credit of Your Life, Your Way for being you in spite of that? Can you now then give yourself credit for having become your own Dad?

Always complete, never finished, lifelong.

When you focus on the ‘good’ or ‘bad’ of your fellows, you make an opening in your heart for maliciousness to enter. Testing, competing with, and criticizing others weakens and defeats you. (Every time you act, you command the Universe. Mind that. Create with that. Act with that. Make with that.)

~ Morihei Ueshiba, Founder of Aikido. Translation by John Stevens in The Art of Peace

Pardon any typos or awkward language constructions. AutoCorrect often writes things on my behalf that I didn’t Nintendo.

Never forget… inhibitions can enslave as easily as excesses. They live in blind spots. Every once in a while I survey myself for neuroses and inhibitions. Maybe always complete, never finished, lifelong, though like the Master Gardener, I tend to them Sometimes I weed them. Sometimes, I delve into what is their message for me? Either way, the intensity of the naturalness of the identity of the garden, unthreatened, is the gig.

Strong enough to be Gentle.

Fierce enough to be compassionate.

Is vulnerability the birthplace of courage? Yup, if healthy boundaries are in place and living AS the heart of the matter in how you give, receive, and deeply listen.

How do you make shame walk the plank today to be your own Dad? That way, if you have a Dad you know, so much the more. If you don’t, (only) have yourself and maybe even loved ones, or not… How can you Dad (verb) yourself to dial in to the community celebration that is… How can you celebrate the You of You with Your Life, Your Way without a Dad? Be your own Dad. Give it a shot. I know my Dad was still growing up while trying to raise me. At least I know that now, or in the recent couple of decades. Now, is more than good enough. How can you love you better today knowing that you have become the Dad of You?

Make Shame Walk the Plank

Make Shame Walk the Plank

Hmmm, I’ve heard people say that shame is important. Nah, make it walk the plank. You might find anxiety and despair tied to its ankles and dragged over, too.

I squinch my nose in the neh way in regards to being attached to those superficial, interference patterns that sink in and invade the integrated armor that is health. No need for them. Feeding those sharks keeps the wolves at bay. Well, unless of course you have or have had a wonderful German Shepherd Wolf Mix Goddess Girrul in your life who aptly promotes Lilith to her stand-up comedian hobby to defy all her bs demonization.

Goddess Girrul, Lyra. Memoris as Blessings at 13.

Your Life, Your Way

You are a Temple, inside and out. May you be and continue to become your own Temple inside and out as your life experiences place the steps. How do you Temple yourself? What part of your life builds foundations up under your dreams to reach them and support them and realize them and reinforce, enhance, and strengthen them once reached? Yup. that’s a long-form discipline of the ritual. It’s not a hassle or when will this end kind of thing. Always complete, never finished, lifelong.

Personally, I find judgment to be farcical as it it generated from bias and expectations. Justice? Heart weighed against a feather? Nods. That’s not that your heart weighs a pound or so. Justice is a question of whether your heart is bouyant enough to dance with a feather.

Discernment, though? Cool to discernment. It has PLENTY of bias in it, though it typically originates from a place where one inspects one’s expectations to see through blind spots and evaporate their mirages like clouds. And, thinking back to a song in the ‘80s… I looked to the sky, and Ra increased the number of clouds by exactly one. Or something like that.

Never forget… inhibitions can enslave as easily as excesses. They live in blind spots. Every once in a while I survey myself for neuroses and inhibitions.

Fierce enough to be compassionate.

Is vulnerability the birthplace of courage? Yup, if healthy boundaries are in place and living AS the heart of the matter in how you give, receive, and deeply listen.

When unthreatened, one does not take on another’s stuff, though is excellent with providing a vessel to pour their stuff out on the table… so they can see the contents from the an outside perspective, so they can take back in its message rather than the trappings of its traumatic or influence of origin. Chaff from wheat. The snake its skin shedded, the snake its skin not missed.

How do you make shame walk the plank today?

SI: 12/12 Serendipity Itinerary

SI: 12/12 Serendipity Itinerary

Welcome to Your December 12th, 2020 SI

Here is the Moon’s itinerary through the weekend and next week to color and texture and magnetize the waves of your travels, your meditations out into action. May the Moon ebb and flow the tide of your serendipity, AND may you surf back and forth over liminal horizons as you choose to your liking:

The Moon was Direct in Scorpio on Friday 12/11 as the weekend began. It will pass into a brief dip through its Void of Course Astro Sign Synapse Portal this evening, 12/12, at 8:58p to emerge Direct at 9:39p in Sagittarius. The Moon will travel Direct in Sag through the weekend to go Void of Course Monday, 12/14, at 11:17a. It will emerge Direct in Capricorn on 12/14 at 10:35p in Aquarius. Tuesday and Wednesday the Moon will remain Direct In Aquarius and dive into the Cusp-Synapse Void of Course at 12:34a on Thursday, 12/17. This will be another quick Void of Course Moon as it will go Direct in Aquarius on 12/17 at 1:27a which will bring us to next Friday’s Serendipity Itinerary.

A note on the Coniunctio and Coniunctionis + Some Big-Time Planetary Interests for You to Factor Into Your Travels, Your Actions

Also, of note is that Neptune Stationed Direct on Monday, 11/30. And, Jupiter and Saturn will go Conjunct on 12/21 with Pluto and Pallas~Athena (Minerva) in the conjunction mix. Quite a beautiful Mystereum Coniunctionis grouping for study and to Marshall your forces. Note that to simplify the Latin conjunction or coniunctionis, simply thank and feel into conjunction. Latin simply doesn’t have a j to use for spelling. So, coniunctionis and coniunctio for the most part simply = state of conjunction and/or conjunct. Add the mystery, and therein is provided a simple expression of the Mystery of the Opposites within each of us that function as Self. Albeit, it is a little overgeneralized, though not to the pejorative point of being simplistic.

* Note: All times given are EST In the USA. Here is a convenient Time Zone Converter, which is a wonderful tool to be familiar with and more easily schedule your international client sessions.

Void of Course Moon

Void of Course is a bit like a mini-Mercury Rx, though instead of the magnetic drag of Mercury appearing to slow, which advises us to downshift, the opposite happens when the Moon goes Void of Course. Rather than drag, there is a slip, a letting go of the Astro Sign connection to disappear across the synapse of the cusp between signs.

I feel the Void of Course period, the Cusp Crossing makes for a wonderful liminal horizon to surf with a foot on both sides, though I mark it in my schedule to not start new projects during it. When I do, their effectiveness invariably slips away like they didn’t even exist, or they are driving on ice with bald tires.

The Void of Course Moon period carries a sense of float where you may viscerally feel Almost weightless. It’s easy to miss unless you intently feel-listen as it is typically short, several hours to a day. It is as if the impact of projects that start during the Void are all but zeroed out by the MIA Void Moon Lunation Wave Formers.

For all intents and purposes it may feel like a car disengaged by being put in neutral, or when the clutched is step-tapped in and not released. A pause of sorts.

A more fun And less wordy waffle way to think about Void of Course is to visualize the Moon as it goes Void as those fun and magical, black portal openings in the movie Time Bandits. One minute it’s there and engaged, the next, HEY! Where’d it GO?!! Well, it went somewhere. Reasons are often unreasonable, and a healthy comfortability with the not-knowing allows your surrender to keep the open door welcome on the other side free and clear of obstruction.

During the VoC Moon

I advise to focus on the flow and structure of existing projects you have in the works. We all kind of Evil Knievel float through the air with the Moon temporarily disconnected… though without the experience of all the broken bones when we land on the other side. Inspect your expectations to assure you are not assuming connections that are actually temporarily not in touch with one another in the least.

Once we land on the ramp on the other side of the Astro cusp to emerge in the next Astro sign as the Moon goes Direct… then, refreshed, re-engage the Past-Future-Confluence of the perpetual present anew.

Here Are 3 Memes For Ideas to Engage Surrender and Engage Void of Course Enactment Guidance

Laughter is the shortest distance between people. ~ Victor Borge

You are not what you say you are going to do. You are what you do. ~ C.G. Jung

It’s Sag Season.

Ever think Sag’s are hard to hold, or that they have a fear of commitment as they need so much running room? Hmmm. Ever thought what it’s like to be A Sag? To be both The Beast & The Divine at the same time? Feel into that as an empathy thought. Feel into that not in your way, though as theirs. Now, the mode of the horse is to charge, and like in the evolved Tarot Knights, that force is saddled, and harnessed like 4 elemental Chariots. Then, there’s Sag. May I suggest not to try to saddle a Mustang? Think about it this way. They needn’t even saddle themselves. As the Centaur, half person, half horse, their Divinity sacrally and naturally seats right into their Beast. Talk about a Soul seating into the Heart. No saddle required. How can you meditate on your natural composition in Empathic Silence with that in mine taken to heart? Here’s an image to steep in and meditate this… or, go the Sag way and Nah, I’ve got my own rawkin’ way. Go You!

Here We Go into Your Serendipity Itinerary for December 12th

Serendipity Itinerary Sites

Go wherever you please, and/or I suggest take 2 sites below that you are familiar with and revisit their current posts. See how you see them differently this week. Has their voice changed? Has the way you listen evolved? Yes both or neither either… this is Serendipity Itineraries. Go where you please just ‘cause. Reasons are unreasonable here. Turn on your not-knowing, look over the horizon, and take yourself somewhere through one the blog portals below. Have a great trip. And, if you trip and fall. Pause for a sec like a turtle. Take in the experience of the ground in that milestone moment. Breathe it in. Feel it. Forget it. Forget it for getting an OFL, an Opportunity For Learning. Look around. Do you sit and steep in ablution there? Do you pick up and with a big breath move on along the path?…….

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Helix and DNA strands anyone? Our world and solar system itself in its orbit is one of the life-giving shapes within us that contributes to our identity. Know Thyself and You Will Know the Universe is Metaphorical, though more so LITERAL, too!

SI: 12/4 Serendipity Itinerary

SI: 12/4 Serendipity Itinerary

Welcome to Your December 4th, 2020 SI

Here is the Moon’s itinerary through the weekend and next week to color and texture and magnetize the waves of your travels, your meditations out into action:

The Moon went Direct in Cancer on Monday 12/1 at 10:33p. It passed into a brief dip through its Void of Course Astro Sign Synapse Portal this morning, Friday 12/4, at 5:29, to emerge Direct in Leo at 7:53a today.

The Moon will continue Direct in Leo until tomorrow, 12/5 at 5:28p when it goes VoC and emerge Direct in Virgo Sunday, 12/6, at 2:46p. So, be on your toes and with a strong but fluid stance as there will be a slalom course of sorts with many Moon energies today and through the weekend.

The Moon will travel Direct in Virgo until Tuesday, 12/8, at 5:28p when it enters its VoC again to emerge Direct on Tuesday, 12/8, at 7:01p in Libra. Void again Friday, 12/10, at 7:56p to emerge Direct on 12/10 at 8:50p in Scorpio which will then put us at your next week’s Friday Serendipity Itinerary.

A note on the Coniunctio and Coniunctionis + Some Big-Time Planetary Interests for You to Factor Into Your Travels, Your Actions

Also, of note is that Neptune Stationed Direct on Monday, 11/30. And, Jupiter and Saturn will go Conjunct on 12/21 with Pluto and Pallas~Athena (Minerva) in the conjunction mix. Quite a beautiful Mystereum Coniunctionis grouping for study and to Marshall your forces. Note that to simplify the Latin conjunction or coniunctionis, simply thank and feel into conjunction. Latin simply doesn’t have a j to use for spelling. So, coniunctionis and coniunctio for the most part simply = state of conjunction and/or conjunct. Add the mystery, and therein is provided a simple expression of the Mystery of the Opposites within each of us that function as Self. Albeit, it is a little overgeneralized, though not to the pejorative point of being simplistic.

* Note: All times given are EST In the USA. Here is a convenient Time Zone Converter, which is a wonderful tool to be familiar with and more easily schedule your international client sessions.

Void of Course Moon

Void of Course is a bit like a mini-Mercury Rx, though instead of the magnetic drag of Mercury appearing to slow, which advises us to downshift, the opposite happens when the Moon goes Void of Course. Rather than drag, there is a slip, a letting go of the Astro Sign connection to disappear across the synapse of the cusp between signs.

I feel the Void of Course period, the Cusp Crossing makes for a wonderful liminal horizon to surf with a foot on both sides, though I mark it in my schedule to not start new projects during it. When I do, their effectiveness invariably slips away like they didn’t even exist, or they are driving on ice with bald tires.

The Void of Course Moon period carries a sense of float where you may viscerally feel Almost weightless. It’s easy to miss unless you intently feel-listen as it is typically short, several hours to a day. It is as if the impact of projects that start during the Void are all but zeroed out by the MIA Void Moon Lunation Wave Formers.

For all intents and purposes it may feel like a car disengaged by being put in neutral, or when the clutched is step-tapped in and not released. A pause of sorts.

During intense work, creative or otherwise, it may also feel like running up fast in 6th gear only to pass 150mph and discover your car has a US-required speed limiter. The fuel injectors cut out, and the 1st time this happens it felt like OH SHIT, I’m floating barely touching the ground at 150 and only in a 4-cylinder…. HOLY SHIT WTF THIS ISN’T GOOD. A rising sense of terror emerges. You grip the wheel harder. You come off the gas and judiciously start to get into the brakes to lightly step-tap yourself back down until the fuel injectors wake back up. There’s no diving into brakes without the counterbalance of the power that got you there in the Justice of an experience like this.

Yes, there’s a metaphor for life in that. The sudden loss of ALL power at that speed is hellishly un-nerving… and, even more so the 2nd time when you know it’s going to happen. No, 3rd time for me, though. My stubbornness has its own set of powerful limits, its own place of Void of Course. Baseball came to mind, and I decided I would rather make my presentation in Vail than achieve Strike 3 You’re Out. From Denver, it’s typically about 1 1/2 hours to Vail. Suffice it say I had some fun, though within my levels of acceptable risk as I made the trip in 47 minutes. I don’t need or want a repeat performance of that. Though, it sure is a blast to remember. Like any trauma, the feeling re-surfaces fresh and ready to engage. Now, I simply steep a bit with a wry smile and bright eyes as I think, Now, how cool was THAT?!!

Trauma, though directly linked to the time it occurs carries a timeless quality. It tucks away deep inside if not directly addressed wise in time as it occurs. And, when we are triggered, it emerges as fresh as it was when it was born into the psyche. That’s what lives within the phrase, ‘Trauma is always fresh.’ One goal I suggest is to Train yourself to catch the inner flash when trauma is triggered, say ‘Thank you. Hold on a sec,’ as you embrace it within without allowing it to merge with the trigger, whatever triggered it, and as you acclimate proceed back into your conversation. Most often you can revisit it on your own time unless you are with a good friend, at which point I suggest to turn the conversation back in upon the trauma to share it and potentially receive a fresh perspective from them that may help bring it to fully re-surface to empathically listen to towards receiving its message so that it can integrate by re-homing in its proper home in your body. A cascade of ablution Tingles is a common way the integration presents. Note where it went in your body. Smile, and welcome it with thanks. ~ Jordan Hoggard

A more fun And less wordy waffle way to think about Void of Course is to visualize the Moon as it goes Void as those fun and magical, black portal openings in the movie Time Bandits. One minute it’s there and engaged, the next, HEY! Where’d it GO?!! Well, it went somewhere. Reasons are often unreasonable, and a healthy comfortability with the not-knowing allows your surrender to keep the open door welcome on the other side free and clear of obstruction.

During the VoC Moon

I advise to focus on the flow and structure of existing projects you have in the works. We all kind of Evil Knievel float through the air with the Moon temporarily disconnected… though without the experience of all the broken bones when we land on the other side. Inspect your expectations to assure you are not assuming connections that are actually temporarily not in touch with one another in the least.

Once we land on the ramp on the other side of the Astro cusp to emerge in the next Astro sign as the Moon goes Direct… then, refreshed, re-engage the Past-Future-Confluence of the perpetual present anew.

Stop

Who 
is to
free the prisoners
when sand sleeps in the eternity of the tilted hourglass.

~ from the Prescient Remembrance: Dialogue of a Vampire poetry collection.

Once the Moon Is Direct

Once Direct we can reconnect our Inner LUNAtic in the next Astro sign and re-engage the creative gearbox. Alternately, if you need something to have the UTMOST discretion or be secret, like planning a surprise Birthday Party, by all means DO start during the Moon’s Void period. It might contribute to the success of the stealth to keep the surprise a surprise. Yes, there are certainly shady ways to apply that, too, though that’s really never been in my Wheelhouse except for in martial arts applications when I explore the power of Silence in motion through whole-body awareness Of the consequence of my feet and toe groundgrabber fingers when I move forward toe-to-heel Instead of the norm of heel to toe when walking or running. In a way the reverse, energetic spin of the motion more clearly generates an awareness of the consequences of actions AS they happen. CRACK goes a twig, and OOPS. Restart.

Take the depth and directness of the clean and stealthy Nothingness of the long Void of Course energy into your weekend. I suggest to team up with surrender rather than hold on. Also, It’s not advised to get caught revving and have the tachometer up to the redline warming things up. You might accidentally sidestep the clutch if your foot slips. Plus, the redline and revving noise just disturbs the Silence, is more than a bit vexatious to the Spirit.

It’s going to be intense, intensely calm. Rather than let down and go amoebic and sloppy in formlessness, there is a lesson in simple Being holding itself together naturally without the crutch of form. Rather than worry or anxiety about falls, instead dial in your focus to your balance of intense things. In one sense it reminds me of the student telling the Buddhist Master they dreamed of falling and falling and getting more and more unsettled. The Master says, Dream that again tonight. This time have a deep knowing that there is no ground. Disengage control. Embrace the experience. Fall farther.

The not-things can get us in trouble all too easily. Personally, I ignore not-things for the most part to more fully focus on the workability so I Don’t waste trouble.

I made a diamond out of my misfortune. ~ Jodorowski’s Chariot speaking

It takes intense heat and pressures to make a diamond. Maybe at the base of infinity within, the heavy darkness get more and more dense, form a weather pattern of singularities that then squeeze density past its Point of Flexure to POOF pop out diamonds that are ejected to the surface.

The flexural strength is stress at failure in bending. It is equal or slightly larger than the failure stress in tension.

During the Void of Course

Focus on established priorities and established launches… even if its simply a walk in the park where you may vividly see and experience something you’ve not seen before. You know? That intensity of ablution tingles when your eyes light up when you discover something that moves you in a cool way.

How can you even up your keel, so that wind the big wind comes you shoot right out in the direction you intended… well, or at least in the range of that direction. There may be some torque that exceeds your grip at first. You;re the driver, though. Dial in to hang in and ride the initial squirrelly movements as your momentum sticks to engage forward movement in big ways.

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Dec 4th, 2020

XI Justice ~ II High Priestess (or XI Strength ~ II High Priestess if that’s the way you roll)

Excellent Birth Cards to surf the Is-what-it-is (Justice) as you give form to the formless (High Priestess) as you bring ideas forth as the heart and impetus to fuel your actions. How can you utilize these energies with the Moon and the other characters inhabiting your Astro Chart this weekend and through the month?

Your naturally enlightened voice from within is an ally than can serve to bring these brightly out in the open as you continually as you continually integrate your Shadow Parts that live and till the garden of your Place of Creation. How can you engage to enact Your Life, Your Way to dance together WITH Shadow as integrated allies contribute together in harmony being at ease with chaos to inner-communally drive your life force?

One must have a chaos in the heart to birth a dancing star. ~ My Friend Fred (Friedrich Nietzche)

A crucial component of these three Archetypes is that they engage inner contents and the unconscious as useful and factual realities. Psychic and intuitive and imaginative and unconscious contents simply provide more facts from within to sacredly couple with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives within yourself you can discover when you do. Have a hard time trusting your intuition? Heck, Mark Twain may have said it best with, Of course truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.

How can you utilize the concept of Reasons Are Unreasonable as you implement the Psychopracticality of your inner contents as useful facts?

This Week

It’s a #2 day today, so enjoy the:

Mystereum Tarot Moment Two of Swords

1 min 14 sec

Mystereum Tarot Moment Two of Pentacles

1 min 01 sec

Mystereum Tarot and The Twos ~ Twos To Pair

2 min 24 sec

With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation process while you enact a disciplined approach to reverently honor the continual focus of your clarity? Does that question build a sanctuary to enter and explore your sacred Self?

Notice if you begin to feel depletion. If you do, it is often either from mis-spent efforts, slippage, or its time to rest and refuel. Running on fumes will actually expend more energy and tire you out more than running with a full tank.

And maybe think about Mindfulness to help you out. I do not feel that Mindfulness is to empty us out of negative inner influences. More so, that it is for us to face and engage and become besties with our beasties. Danger? Potentially? Sure, sometimes, like life itself. Though, think about it this way. If they harm me, they harm their home. So, I let their storms rage inside when they present themselves. And, as their storm subsides robustly and empathically witnessed by me in reverence Silence, I ask, What is your message?

Once a storm has spent itself, it has often shed itself of all the extraneous marble block parts like Michelangelo liberating David. Then, they can integrate, you might feel a cascade of ablution tingles as they nestle back into wherever their trauma was living in your body as they bring more of You to You with their power as experiential enhancements born of facing your traumas. Or, they don’t integrate, in which case you let them go as if vanished forever, … or, they sidle up right beside you and behind you as another Chthonic Numinosity Light~Shadow Ally of Self. Can’t have too many of those.

Someone asked me recently how long PTSD lasts. A lifetime, was my response. Color that with this. Though it lasts a lifetime, it lasts a lifetime in its influence as you transform it over time from the lead of raw experience to the gold that flows up from within of wisdom magnetized and born of the experience as you process it. From trauma or influence to treasure. After you face your fears and traumas, work with them. With a Professional is good. They can transform to release and renew you. So, the PTSD part doesn’t really last a lifetime. The PTSD is a point of origin. Its ever-evolving influence as you face and engage and use it is actually what lasts a lifetime.

How can you invest in yourself today? How can you invest in yourself this week? What actions will you take as your initial Self-investment? How can you bank the lead to draw interest as it transforms into more Self-born Inner Inheritances?

I resonate with Thich Nhat Hanh‘s

We do not practice Mindfulness to rid us of anger. We practice Mindfulness to take good care of it. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh.

My Friend Fred

I resonate with how he aligns there.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words and music as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another or out to the world, will you allow the words and music to be yours as if spoken and emanated directly from you and your internal community? As if they are a play about a journey produced by you about you, as you most likely know yourself better than anyone else.

SVRCINA ~ Astronomical

The Birthday Massacre ~ Run

The Birthday Massacre ~ Walking With Strangers (full album)

Pandora on my Sonos played them in that You Might Like way twice last weekend. I saw it like it magnified the 2nd time, an I listened to the message, listened to them again… YES!, is a word, and kinda turned into a another one-word complete sentence verb. Love it when substance embeds in action! Enjoy!

Check out the soulfully resonant and robust and rockin’ developmental work. Also, here’s a link to Verdarluz CelstiOwl’s Soundcloud music site.

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

Dr. Jean Raffa ~ Think Psychologically. Live Spiritually. A former television producer and college professor, Dr. Raffa changed directions in midlife to discover and write about her passions. Informed by over 30 years of psychological and spiritual study, her books and teachings guide others to growth and self-empowerment. Red Feather Mind Body Spirit is an imprint of Schiffer Publications who is my publisher.

Her recent post Through the Looking Glass from The Global Exclaimer is powerful and full-on apt about this racism disease going around more powerfully in this current time where the Civil War is like the EverReady Bunny just going and going and going — like it seethed under the surface for over a century, the internal war that never ended.

Scott Spillman ~ The Point Magazine.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Trace the hidden history of Tarot in the first volume from TASCHEN’s Library of Esoterica, a series documenting the creative ways we strive to connect to the divine. Artfully arranged according to the sequencing of the Major and Minor Arcana, this visual compendium gathers more than 500 cards and works of original art from around the world in the ultimate exploration of a centuries-old art form.
