Contemporary
parenting research indicates that children will tend to demonstrate
behaviors that mimic parental or environmental expectations. Expectations
become self-fulfilling prophecy. If their parents or teachers
nurture a "can do" spirit in them, by and large the child adopts
that lens in addressing the issues in their life. The same for
kids laboring in an environment of criticism or fear; performance
suffers, and they tend to be "carriers" of that dis-ease
for their adult life.
Solar
Astrology has provided an apt psychological profiling tool for
those of us seeking patterns in others and ourselves that seem
to land outside the nature/nurture hypothesis. It describes the
human "game" and explains the various lenses' that color and compartmentalize
human perspective. It pins the tail on the donkey of human motivation,
behavior, and psychological predisposition. This is done so compellingly
that an inadvertent secondary effect is achieved; one could
believe that astrology's true focus is this solar dimension of
human affairs. However, astrology also can reflect back parts
of us that function and operate within higher levels of Self.
So as our human species reclaims enhanced perspectives of Self,
this galactic and universal perspective will provide a reliable,
logical and ordered mirror of this exalted point of experience
and view.
After
a bow and curtsy towards standard skepticism, most people with
a modicum of intelligence give solar astrological theory some
credence. If for no other reason, the allure, promise, and excitement
of finding out more about themselves! Also, to provide
order in a random world. Or seek guidance in the realm of relationship,
family, or career. Finally, we DO tend to behave (in a more than
random fashion) like our astrological data would expect. I laughed
to myself years back as my 3 year old Virgo son, in spontaneous
fashion, began neatly and carefully started folding his clothing-
in stark contrast to his 4 year old Scorpio sister, who was busy
giving Charles Schultz's Pigpen a run for his money! Solar astrology
works - within and on the level that it is intended to.
Galactic
or Higher or God Self Astrology serves to reflect back the
personal spiritual level of us. It is the "can-do" spirit-nurturing
branch of astrology. It generates the "expectation set" of divinity,
and focuses on where we are already valuable- no, indispensable
- aspects or attributes of God, or All That Is. In conjunction
with the 21st century version of The Kabala or "Tree of Life",
a synthesis of "wisdom lenses" is offered to you, a modern citizen/consumer/co-creator
of this local universe. These systems, "the Wheel" and "the Tree",
provide a platform for individuals to examine and celebrate themselves
as individualized, fully functioning aspects of Source intelligence.
Where traditional astrology delineates the elements and outcomes
of a Solar ("soular")-biased view of human life, Galactic/Higher
Self astrology presents the authentic or original patterns we
embrace as conscious evolving Source-biased God Sparks. Analysis
is provided, but its purpose is to provide guidance and encouragement
for the individual as the cause of life events, rather
than an effect or as measurer of effects.
What
is the need for a Higher Self astrological perspective? My premise
is that the collective wisdom or worldview that our society engages
in is inherently self-limiting. Consciously or unconsciously,
by choice or default, we live in a jealously enforced Cult of
Self-Limitation. This viewpoint saturates our religious, governmental,
and educational systems, which address incremental and well-meaning
improvements within their areas of focus. However, the overall
societal miasma is never even recognized, much less addressed.
This is understandable. For as Carl Jung once perceptively wrote,
"How do we recognize a lion that has swallowed us whole?" Just
as solar astrology reflects trends issues and potentialities within
the miasma, the galactic perspective reflects the same data
outside the miasma. Properly dispensed, it is a viable "Red Pill",
capable of triggering the experiences necessary to identify and
extract us from the "Matrix" of conventional wisdom.
Zeno's
Paradox comes to mind. Taught in introductory logic and/or
calculus classes, it describes Zeno, a philosopher of repute in
the classical period of Greece, and a bet he made with some of
the locals at his neighborhood pub. Pointing to a wall in the
building that they were in, he said that he would bet that he
could prove logically that there was no way to reach the wall
in question. Thinking the kindly Zeno had obviously sampled too
much of that year's vintage, many in attendance took his bet
He
then asked all to consider a point halfway to the wall (let's
say for discussions sake 20 feet away). There was complete
concordance that that point would be 10 feet from the wall. From
that point, he asked all if they could agree on the next
midway point. Which all could; 5 feet from the wall. And so the
pattern of half way points was established: 2.5 feet, 1.25 feet
(or the local Greek measurement unit), .625 feet, etc, etc. The
distances got smaller and smaller, immeasurable in the technical
sense (remember, these were the days before microscopes). But
all could agree with the apparently quite lucid Zeno that whether
it was 2 inches or a millionth of an inch, there would indeed
always be some smaller unit of measurement that would accommodate
the distance between the observer and the wall!
Zeno'
paradox works because it creates a "false sleeve" of measurement
that has its own SELF-CONTAINED linear logic. Logic seemingly
as valid as the sleeve called "common sense", which presents a
completely different outcome. With 4 or 5 full strides, somebody
is going to have a bloody nose! Zeno paradox captures us with
the very first assumption we accept. Once we accept Zeno's
original premise of methodology of how to solve the problem, and
start dividing things in halves, we are toast! And permanently
separated from that wall. So despite the fact that there are
truths and symmetries within "half of" measurements, we have truly
and irrevocably lost the forest for the trees. Most existing systems
of self-assessment, be they spiritual, financial, religious, geopolitical,
astrological, have us "orphaned" from Source intelligence at the
opening bell.
Galactic
Astrology acknowledges the value of the solar version of the science,
while simultaneously postulating its own unique and independent
birthright. This is a 12 step "Amnesiacs Anonymous" program for
sleeping gods. New symbols, new constellation affiliations, new
rulers, and new neural pathways are offered. More importantly,
we connect the dots on new highways that connect the tangible
and intangible aspects of our current existence into an observable,
repeatable format. It recognizes that its teleology is to provide
an environment of understanding to support Christ consciousness
in each individual. And to do so, we cannot serve two masters;
that is, vibrate in the solar (soul) and galactic (Christ, crystalline,
or crystal clear) levels. The "Galactic Lens" avoids Zeno's cul
de sac, reflecting each Adam or Eve it meets as an atomic miniaturization
of an interactive Universe Wide Web of love, growth, and light.
It draws an energetic and dimensional distinction, inviting us
to increase frequency and vibrate out of the Matrix or
miasma that has lost its true roots in Source. Like any of the
authentic new teachings, it is consistent in its vision of a human
being an outpost and co-creator of the forces that create and
move the seen and unseen worlds. The spiritual God enjoys his
connection to source and its material adventure.
