A New Year is upon us, and with it come new 'cycles', a seemingly unending revolution that drives everything (hu)man knows, everything we do, everything we are, revolving in a great 'spiral' since time immemorial.
I admit I struggle with Astrology and the Solar System, Planets etc but I do believe that the things that run this place, place their bets on it. I sumise that the Sun is local.. no way no how its 93 million miles away. IF it was at that distance it would be a constant size or dot in the sky. We have all seen a HUGE sunset in our lives when the Sun is rather quite large...Are our eyes even designed to see something 93 million miles away? Stars are basically in the same place every year so again cant wrap my head around we are hurtling through space, spinning at the same time observation tells me otherwise. Again FOR SURE I feel there is something to it.. just at this time in my life it evades me.
"Essentially, it is the spiralling, spinning journey of our Earth around the Sun that provides (hu)man's lifecycle with days and nights, the seasons, and the years"
At this 'time' in our lives there is much that evades us Maurice.
I too, at times, have questioned everything, particulalry recent times with strange changes in the sky.
However, the Cosmic motor spins within us, like it does without.
We are so misunderstood as (hu)man these days.
And I would like to think (will it), that if the possibility exists to shift an entire existence off course, to misstep, and find itself in uncharted seas.
Then there 'must' be the possibility of realigning with the steps of the dance, and reattuning ourself back into rhythm...
Astrology isn't for everyone, and it's a tough topic to try and explain and share. It's one that requires a certain 'interest' to pursue.
But I find as I age, it's becoming more and more unavoidable, and potentially necessary.
As for the Sun's distance, I tend to ignore what scientists say as a general rule, I work the cosmos through mythology, the scientists can keep their opinions to themselves...
I found this, your latest piece to be both significant and evocative, in the most direct fashion. If I can find the time, I will explain in greater detail, but for now, thanks.
Maha Dasha is called after the Great period in a person's life. A particular stretch of time in an individual's lifespan is ruled by a particular planet.
The first dasha (period) is determined by the Nakshatra that the sidereal Moon is tenanting at the time of birth.
>within Earth where our tale inevitably starts. Once thought to be the centre of the universe, it is from our planet that we are able to ‘perceive’ the other planets, and thus their rotational cycles around the Sun (and Earth).
Reply: Earth is center as we are the center of our experience. But when we become aware of our relationship with life we also see the relationship of earth to the cosmos.
That said, this does not diminish the self or the earth but shines a light on reality which inspires the soul.
Great job, Seraphim! Well written. I have discovered a few really talented writers through Jack. He has some very intriguing guest posters. Definitely resonating with aspects of what you wrote as I resonated with aspects of the other writers. But, of course, we're all individuals. So, there will be differences in opinion.
Astrology is the study of celestial objects which have been anthropomorphized. Imbued with 'human' qualities.
Not making an argument for or against, Seraphim, and believe me, I make no claim to be an expert in any subject. I am interested in it, as well as Astrotheology, and will study your piece further. Perhaps those celestial 'objects' imbue us? With energy? Purpose?
I don't believe we are on a spinning ball, orbiting a sun 93 million miles away, Seraphim. No worries if you are laughing uncontrollably right now. I am used to it.
By 'believe', I mean simply, to the best of my current reasoning abilities, I seem to exist on an extended, stationary plane. I've studied evidence for and against both Flat Earth and Heliocentric Globe models. Plus considered egg shaped, concave, a toroidal field . . . even the possibility matter itself is a kind of a reflection of our consciousness and may not 'exist' in 'space' at all. A virtual simulation. A hologram, as Jack has mentioned.
I doubt the stars are suns. They seem to be some kind of interesting lights. Look at the Zodiac, which was created through study of these 'lights' and how much knowledge has been embedded in that. They seem to be following some kind of divine arrangement, like a celestial timepiece, rather than random objects spinning uncontrollably in a chaotic, meaningless infinite vastness of 'space.'
By the way, I don't believe NASA sent anyone to the moon, either. I am sure you're aware of the occult origins of that agency. I am not for or against anything when I study it, do you understand, Seraphim? I don't think in those simplistic, binary, black/white, good/evil, terms. Or at least, I try to stay out of that mental territory as much as possible. I find it prevents me from learning. The truth is the truth, and that's what I am seeking. Not looking to have my pet theories confirmed, but rather to truly be a student of the reality behind the fiction. I am just a student, Seraphim, here to learn. So please don't think I am being sarcastic or absurdly humorous, but I doubt the moon is a place you could 'go to' to begin with, in the physical sense. NASA has reasons for existing that are totally occulted from Joe and Jane Sixpack, who think they are living on a rotating globular object surrounded by an infinity of similar globular objects.
I fully admit I could be wrong in any of my assertions, Seraphim. But I don't think it is wise to not trust my own God-given natural senses -- and believe the opposite of what they are telling me -- based on some dubious theorems other human beings created. Isn't that the same thing as religion or politics or philosophy? Evidence required for me to be believe the opposite of what my senses tells me, as well as my intuition, would have to be persuasive indeed. And I mean, rational, and verifiable.
Astrology is an ancient and venerated science derived through observation and study of the firmament, regardless of what it is. Astronomy, outside the realm of celestial observation, is a pseudoscience based on nothing but academic hot air. NASA is naught but the entertainment division of Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the disciples of Theodor von Karman, Jack Parsons and their master Aleister Crowley...
I likewise question the physics of our existence and beliefs, and have researched quite a bit about flat earth, and other possibilities...
Particulalry, in light of the simulated reality evidence (it is clear even when looking to the stars that we may be dealing with nothing more than a projection, and one that has glitches, and has been doing strange things of late).
I have been questioning everything I thought I knew these past months, and nearly stopped writing about this subject, but then came to the realisation that observation is still relevant, especially if everything viewed is veiled and potentially false...
In fact, I agree with you about the solar system, it is not the physical so called space objects I am interested in, or necessarily believe in...
We live on a flat plane, at least our solar system does, its all just waveform, everything is vibration, and frequencies...
And they work beyond our senses.
And so, ike Descarte's says - we cannot trust our senses...
This is a 2D not 3D reality we reside in, and we are all all part of the same design and pattern, in fact I wonder whether we are even distinct from it beyond our belief of individuality...
Life is a puzzle, and most of it is illusion...
So NASA's moon landing and Mars mission etc is all just Hollywood theatre for the masses, and we are all students, forever learning...
Thank you for the comment Nemo, it's good to challenge and disbelieve, I question myself and everything around me every day, and what I write is just an observation, and not necessarily meant to be rational or verifiable...
But if it resonates, then it's hitting a chord, and the music of the spheres will out...
Seraphim, I realize my ability to learn the truth behind what is occulted is dependent on my not having any preconceived notions regarding good/evil. Or preconceived notions of what is and is not 'possible.'
They are both simplistic representations of two forces. I am interested in the third force, which most never notice, which Gurdjieff and other Fourth Way authors have discussed. Reconciliation. This force would often be the thing most never consider, when analyzing a phenomenon.
I don't believe 100 % we are on a flat, stationary plane. That is the one that seems the most plausible, at this stage of the information I have available to study. But I realize what you write is true, our genetic spacesuits (physical bodies) are inhibiting our ability to understand actual reality. It provides blinders and buffers so valuable information (through these vibrations you mentioned) is not available to us, or if it is, it's in a diminished capacity. Our pitiful range of awareness of the electromagnetic spectrum would seem to be one example of this. Do we really 'see' with our eyes? Or are they inhibitive filters for the necessary illusion of isolation and 'alone'-ness we feel inside these 'spacesuits'?
Gnosticism rings true, Seraphim. In Gnosticism, this realm is called Hal. It is a bad copy of something real.
Midgard?
Some kind of middle realm. Created by an incompetent god at best, a psychopathic one at worst. Although, admittedly, one with a great, if bizarre, sense of humor. But this is not our true home.
As Gurdjieff said, in his covering circular letter sent to the recepients of the first publishing of his book - 'The Herald of Comming Good':
"Believe me, during the whole period of my relations with you, my inner world never harboured either egotistical or altruistic impulses, and there existed only, always and in everything, the exclusive desire to prepare in all perfection for the future generations the science of the 'Objective Truth-of-Reality' "
Now, I'm not claiming to be a gurdjieff, nor that I know the full objective truth, and indeed I wonder whether there will be future generations...
But for us here now, who shouldn't be, were not supposed to be here, but are - it's incumbent on us to share as much with each other as possible, so that in the crucible of our discussions we can collectively discern a path home...
I was aware of some, but not this one, so thank you RMB for sharing this link.
Rune-like notation?
We are intrinsically linked to the dead moon - well of lost memories...
That's fair RMB, it's only a story...
You caught me Turquoise...
Under the light of the Full Moon, in an act of Separation.
It's OK RMB, I lost myself after A...
Glad you enjoyed still ;)
Yea been there done that myself...
Thank you Jack.
I now know what you are talking about with regards nefarious substack activity...
The stats don't add up, and likes appear then disappear, gotta love technology and its controllers...
I'm not in anyway attributing myself to him, or advocating him, but to quote Benjamin Disraeli:
"Nothing can withstand the power of the human will if it is willing to stake its very existence to the extent of its purpose".

MK that is great praise indeed, thank you.
Use tonight's Full Moon to rid yourselves of the weeds in your life...
Be well

Reply: the idea of samsara has occupied my mind in relation to "the great churning wheel...."
Thank for all this work of digestion over your life time. Me I barely have my toes wet. Still I will comment as if I know something.

Thank you wm, for your eloquent comment and link, and I'm delighted that your soul was inspired...
The Maha Dasha is indeed the progressed moon cycle, and you are spot on...
Earth is our experience.
So much so that it is the subject of what's coming next in this series - 'Being this Story within Earth'
This piece is the first part of a story, and there are only so many words, so no room for Sirius, Soma, and Vulcan this time, but as the tale unfolds.
We are spiritual individuals, having a (hu)man experience here in Earth.
To quote from a meditation:
"Creation was planned before you came.
You can plan for yourself like the plan of the creation.
Creation is for all.
You are one among the many.
The plan for all is work, the plan for one is fate.
Fate for work is ritual, work for fate is heresy."
Do not diminish yourself, thank you for the informed comment wm.
P.S. And for your twin comment, much appreciated.
