I hope you have read my last post on the first of two consecutive full moons in Scorpio. I have altered my layout temporarily so that two posts show on the page, and I encourage you to scroll down and read it before you read this post.
Let me expand just a bit on what I mean by "no future." I do not mean "our economy is going to hell in a handbasket and our country has no future." I do not mean "jobs are being cut, unemployment is high, the housing market is about to collapse, peak oil is upon us, and we have no future." These statements imply a "bad" future. Or a future that is not the same as the past.
What I mean, and you have to think about this on a mystical level, not a practical one, is that all possible futures are currently being suspended. The actions and events of your life have led you down a path of probabilities. Now those probabilities are going to be suspended. You have the opportunity to re-write your story. To create a new future. But if you leave the old structures intact, then at the end of this "moment" (between tomorrow's full moon and the full moon in May) you might have the same future. Or worse, a future someone else has chosen for you.
Because without all the protection old karma creates in keeping you on the path of your probabilities, those structures might be removed or added to for you. Imagine that gravity were about to be suspended, and you had nailed nothing down?
Someone said to me this morning "if there are 6 billion people on the planet, and only, say 500,000 of them are seeking enlightenment and a spiritual path, how is there any hope of creating a new and better future? And creating new and better Gods?" (Per my last post, I believe the mythic stories of the Gods are being re-written.)
The strongest thought wins. And by strongest I mean, in some ways, most honest. One thing I have learned, and that you will often hear me say is, "at least be honest with yourself." There have been many times in my own life where I could not be honest with other people about what I was doing or what my true motives were. Obviously, honesty is always the best policy. But if you can't be honest with everyone, at least be honest with yourself.
If you can be honest with yourself, you will be the strongest person in the room. Maybe not the richest or the most powerful, but you will be the strongest. You will have your own strength and that will make it impossible for others to pull you in a direction that you don't want to go. Maybe everyone else will jump off that bridge, but you won't.
Being in touch with your own emotions, beliefs, and motives will root you in a way that even the most fervent, blind, tribal devotion to collective beliefs can not. (And honesty with yourself will also move you to create a better life for yourself, based on who you really are, and you will find that you have less need to be dishonest with others.)
Your only real power is the power to be who you are, and to change yourself. Each of us has certain talents and skills that are unique. Each of has a way of being in the world which cannot be duplicated by anyone else. And psychically and spiritually, the only way to really "see" things clearly is to have self-awareness. Only then can you tell if what you "see" belongs to you or someone else.
We are transformed, often unconsciously, by the dreams and visions of other people. Strong leaders have strong visions. That is true for good leaders and for bad leaders. Think Martin Luther King, Jr. versus Osama bin Laden. We might revere King and revile bin Laden, but they are both strong leaders.
And there is another side to this as well. Predators- murderers, rapists, thieves- have strong thoughts. They have a need that is looking to be stronger than yours. They need to take your life, your power, or your money from you, often more than you need to keep it. This can also be said of banks, advertisers, the government, etc. Or just about anyone that wants something from you that you don't want to give, or that may not be in your best interest to give.
But the predator example is particularly illuminating. No one would willingly wander into the path of someone that wanted to do something harmful to them. If you are at a point in your life where you are not being honest with yourself, and if you are hiding from certain truths about your life, or engaging in alot of deceit, (or if you are going through a psychic upgrade, or if you are off-balance because of illness or depression, or you are particularly open empathically and not protected by emotional awareness) you can become a target for a predator.
Without realising it you could unconsciously be drawn to that "stronger" power. Even though a predator is "evil" and it is usually true that good can conquer evil, good needs a source power. And that source power is always honesty. (Or perhaps Love, as honesty with one's self is truly self-Love.) So even if your need is not as consuming as that predators, you will be stronger because you will be rooted in yourself, and no one can take that power away from you once you possess it.
I believe this because of many experiences in my own life. Particularly as a runaway, when I did attract many predators. But even now, even as a "psychic", I find myself responding to people and situations in ways that are not always to my best interest, or at the very least, how I would respond if I were able to be more self-aware.
Mainly this comes up for me romantically. I suppose all of us have an area of our lives where it is difficult to really face our own motivations, because once we do, we know that we will have to make changes. And humans tend to fear change more than we fear death. We want tomorrow to be the same as yesterday. Even if it is not ideal, it is at least safe. We like safe. And the more pain that we have experienced in regards to those changes, the more we will resist. In my case, romantic relationships.
And what will happen to me is, because I am hiding and therefore disconnected to my own motivations (fears), I will sometimes respond to men in the way that they want me to respond. (Often to the point of confusing their desire for me as my own desire for them. I think this is particularly tricky for the psychic and/or intuitive person.)
As the world shifts, there will be alot of strong "pulls" from the unconscious collective mind. Collective beliefs are in many ways democratic. Only the conscious mind is stronger. The unconscious mind has only resistance, and resistance often makes the unwanted belief stronger. It can only fear. But the conscious mind can overcome fear without using resistance.
Being self-aware does not mean that you will always be able to do whatever you want, or always have your way. But it will allow you to see "the forest for the trees." Even when the world grows dark around you, it will be moonlight on the path ahead. You will not mistake the rustling of rabbits for the footfall of a hungry bear. You will not mistakenly be pulled down the wrong path towards that bear.
If you cannot connect with your own power right now, if you cannot be honest with yourself, you will be at the mercy of the whims of others. This is a strange and dark power that is upon us, but it is a necessary one. The old structures are crumbling. We are living in a new world. Even the old Gods do not have the same future any more. The old stories are being re-written, and we are the authors.
Do not let someone else write your story for you. Do not let fear of facing your own darkness keep you from creating a new and brighter future. Because that new future is bright only if we create a better one for ourselves. And by creating a better future for ourselves, we create a better future for the world. For all of us.
I will make a prediction: no matter what, you will not be the same person on May 19th that you are now. Shape that new person with self-awareness and honesty. Do it for yourself, and do it for all of us. Do it for the planet.
Take a few moments tomorrow morning and face your fears. Then bless them and wish them good-bye.
PRAISES, THANKS, & BLESSINGS!!!
