An equinox is a time when our Earth is perfectly balanced. This can be demonstrated by placing a room temperature fresh egg upright and unsupported upon a flat surface at the time of the equinoxes, the 21st/22nd March and September when day and night are equal. This simple demonstration indicates that the equinoxes offer us an opportunity to experience internal balance. When we pay attention to this feeling we can consciously re-create it whenever we choose.
Therefore it is very wise to become conscious of how and why we create imbalance in our life. From that awareness we can do something constructive to correct. For example, we become imbalanced through emotional intensity, mental negativity and physical limitation. We can also create imbalance through our elemental nature. Water symbolizes our emotions; earth our physical body and material world; air our thoughts and fire our spiritual inspiration and aspirations. We can heal our imbalances ourselves when we become conscious of them. Astrology is the greatest tool for developing conscious living.
Through observing and counseling my clients, students and friends there is a major theme that seems to be currently triggering the greatest imbalance. This is the issue of separation from love.
When we learn to identify, embrace and bring into balance the fixed and arrogant Leo/Aquarius issues amazing healing takes place. The main issue that faces almost everyone on the planet is the deeply wounding and weakening feeling of separation from love.
At some time in our lives each one of us experiences abandonment and rejection that leads to deep-seated hurt and the feeling of being unloved. When we wallow in these feelings, allowing them to fester, we lose all joy and spontaneity. We place a cold, hard Saturn barrier around our hearts so that we will not ever again experience that same painful feeling of rejection! Guess what? That magnetized dense emotion will continually attract like to it until we choose to work lovingly on ourselves to heal our wound.
It is wise to accept “The buck stops with me!” Accepting responsibility for your behavior, thoughts and feelings can be very difficult for some who prefer to blame an external source. It is definitely easier to do this! Irresponsibility will continually trigger you into further separation scenarios that amplify your original issue until such time as you ‘get it’. You need to be willing to confront your rejection issues by accepting responsibility for creating them. It is a step-by-step process. You can only begin the process of healing by becoming conscious of what it is that needs to be healed.
A simple way to become conscious of an issue is through self-questioning. “What is the aspect inside of me that I reject and do not love? What part of me attracted the dense energy of rejection to me? What can I do to heal my rejection of myself so that I do not feel separated any more?”
Once you get the answers you can then act on the information and so begin the process of transmuting the dense energy pattern into light. You would not attract rejection if you did not reject a part of your self. So, its best to 'get it' now! Who wants to go through a long period of amplified emotional and physical separation issues?
Separation occurs within many different relationships. Husband and wife separate - one rejects the other: Mother and daughter separate: one rejects the other: Then there is separation between mother and son, father and child, grandparent and grandchild, family from their home etc. The list goes on - and on.
It is wise to question self as: “Where, when and how did my major life threatening separation issue begin?” I say life threatening because those who cannot heal their rejection and separation issues can experience their heart being 'attacked'! Heart attacks! The heart attacks occur when stress and fear is allowed to rule and when there is insufficient joy, fun and self-love present.
In January 2006 transiting Chiron moved into the sign of Aquarius - the opposite sign to Leo. Chiron is the wounded healer, the wise teacher and cosmic archetype that offers opportunities to heal the deep- seated psychological wounds we all experience. Imagine these two archetypal energies having a conversation in your mind. Authoritarian Saturn - with hands on hip - says "Its' time my friend to take stock and address your issue of separation so you can find your return to love". Chiron, with arms outstretched, palms upward offers the following wise words. “Through my transit in Aquarius I offer you the opportunity to heal your deepest wounds around rejection, abandonment and separation. You, however need to do your part and become conscious of the truth of the original cause of your wound. When this truth is accessed, accepted, owned, integrated and action taken on the wisdom gained, I being the healing”.
I feel the energy of old resistance as a packet of dense dark foul ‘smoke’ in my solar plexus. As I work lovingly and consciously with this dense energy it stirs and begins to move, traveling up to my throat where it seeks release. I tone, especially the AAAHHH sound, until I feel the dense energy release. I send it to the light and then fill the empty space inside of me with love and appreciation for the teaching. Why not try it for yourself?
What happens on an energetic level when one individual totally heals and transmutes the density of a deep-seated wound by shining the light of truth and acceptance on the issue? The light energy generated forms wave patterns and these light waves move through the ethers to touch others and assist in their healing process.
Long term dysfunctional family patterns can be healed when one member of the family chooses to be a pattern breaker. When the dense pattern is broken and totally healed the light accessed travels down the time lines and that issue never arises again because there is no dense magnetic attraction for it to do so.
As each of us addresses and heals our emotional and mental issues greater light is created within our soul, mind and body. Our pay-off is that we feel more energized and look younger. Our spirit is freed from old chains. We then naturally share our lighter state of being with others. It is contagious. This is an alchemical process and is the greatest service we can render humanity and our precious planet.
