The Chariot and Temperance – Revolution: Move Forward Balancing Love

“Even after all this time, The Sun never says to the Earth, "You owe me."
Look what happens with a Love like that, it lights the whole sky.”

~Hafiz

“…Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, None but ourselves can free our mind,
…have no fear for atomic energy, 'Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time…
…Won't you help to sing, These songs of freedom?...Redemption songs…

~ Bob Marley from Redemption Song

Hang on to your hats everyone; we’re really moving forward now!  With six planets and a Goddess Asteroid (Pallas) in Aquarius on February 11, including the new moon, everything is moving forward through transformation to more firmly anchor us in this Age of Aquarius.

‍

As the Charioteer, steers his chariot with the Hanab Ku (Mayan Butterfly/Galactic Center), harnessing to shadow and light for momentum, we are all being asked to integrate our shadows, take full responsibly for the realities we’re creating and anchor our light more fully in the world with us.

Lately it’s been feeling to me like the beginning of a roller coaster ride as we are slowly moving up, up, up to the highest spot from where we’ll be able to gather the most momentum & take us all the way through the loop de loops ahead!

“…Revelation reveals the truth - revelation.

It takes a revolution to make a solution;
Too much confusion, so much frustration, eh!...

…So, my friend, I wish that you could see,
Like a bird in the tree, the prisoners must be free, yeah!...”

~ Bob Marley, Revolution

So...What happens now?

‍

The palpable collective relief of the population who believe that evil incarnate was finally removed from the office of the U.S. President this year has created, to me, a false sense of security.  I’ve felt for a while that there is something more going on beneath the surface of what we’ve been told to believe and I’m still waiting, watching and wondering at what will unfold next.

‍

With the Winter Solstice conjunction of Pluto/Jupiter/Saturn promising the unearthing of secrets; the revelations in the months ahead should be quite interesting. I’ve been told we will soon bee experiencing something akin to our generation’s “Watergate Scandal” and I imagine it will be at a grander level. 

‍

I also recently heard that the astrological/planetary placements of 2022 are very similar to what occurred during the writing & presentation of the Declaration of Independence. I have a feeling though, that this will be a Global/Planetary Revolution, rather than just a national revolution. 

"Everything will be Alright in the end, if it’s not Alright, it’s not the end."

Guidance from the Temperance Card

And as everything happens for us, rather than to us, the advice that Temperance offers is to find the balance, the healing, and ultimately stay anchored in love and light and human connection as we move through the wild roller coaster ride we all agreed to be on when we put offered up our “E-tickets” in order to get on board the roller coaster of this time; to be here for the birth of the new paradigm.

‍

As the angel of Temperance stands balanced one foot in the water, one foot on land, she is continually finding balance between the dark and the light. She pours from one cup to the other while the sky dances between opposites behind her in what could be considered a roller coaster of light and dark, with the loop de loop of the yin yang closest to her shoulder.

‍

She is simultaneously maintaining balance and seeking balance. She is able to do this because she is anchored in both the material world and the watery emotional spiritual world; she is utilizing her connection to both worlds to anchor her into her place of balance.

"Ships don't sink because of the water around them; ships sink because of the water that gets in them. Don't let what's happening around you get inside you and weigh you down." 

~Unknown

‍

We're all traveling together

We are already well into this ride and it won’t stop to let us off, so we may as well just hang on, trust we are buckled in tightly enough, and move through the highs and the lows balancing as much consciousness, authenticity, kindness and compassion as we can muster. 

‍

Some of us will not be hit so hard by the changes (perhaps our biggest challenges have already been met so that we could meet this time with more equanimity; knowing that everything works out eventually) other’s worlds are tumbling down around them as we speak, and still others have their opportunity for surrender in the near future; we are ALL effected.

‍

And as we watch in wonder, shock and awe at the destruction of the old paradigm occurring all around us, we can stay balanced in ourselves, trusting that it truly is happening for us, for a better, more healthy, more transparent and equitable world.

“…Never, never, never give it up now
All in the same boat
Rockin on the same rock
Got to get together, lovin' each other…”

~Bob Marley, from Don’t Rock My boat

Being an Aquarius myself, my new year starts on February 3rd, just after Imbolc/Candlemas and Groundhog’s Day and with Valentine’s Day shortly thereafter.  And with my sun, Venus & Goddess asteroid Vesta all with my rising in the first house of Aquarius, I am finding myself deeply affected by these current transitions.

‍

The most powerful influence being that I am feeling myself ready to be of service for the higher good of all in whatever way I am needed. I know that I was born for this time; that my whole life has been in preparation for this transition and that I came for this; no matter what happens next.

‍

Really, we all are and we all did; if you are alive at this time you MEANT to be here, just like me; at least your spirit did, even if your personality is not in agreement.  I invite you to check your own astrological chart  (get a free chart at www.astro.com) to see what planets and houses are affected by this stellium in Aquarius, because in some way or another we are all moving powerfully forward together in some way and can support, and receive support from each other, depending on how we are being affected.

‍
“…(One Love!)
There is one question I'd really love to ask (One Heart!)
Is there a place for the hopeless sinner
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own beliefs?
One Love! What about the one heart? One Heart!
What about - ? Let's get together and feel all right…”

~ Bob Marley from One Love / People Get Ready

No matter what unfolds I have promised myself that I will do my very best to stay centered and grounded in the love of the high holy and the holy earth, continually offering love to the world around me.  I invite you to join me.

“…Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind…”

~ Paul Simon – from Bridge Over Troubled Water

PS: Happy Birthday to Bob Marley on February 6th! Talk about a forward thinking prophetic and beautifully flawed human being who seeded the consciousness of the world with the preparation for transformation. We were so blessed he was here!
