Astrology Reports

There is a well-established principle in both modern and ancient healing practices that sometimes a poison can serve as medicine. Anti-venom for snake bites is produced from the actual venom. The flu shot is derived from the flu virus. In biology, this concept is called hormesis, where a low-level stress, toxin, restriction, or poison actually promotes greater health, resilience, and growth. Paracelsus, the renowned Swiss physician, alchemist, and philosopher of the German Renaissance, stated that “all things are poison, and nothing is without poison; only the dose permits something not to be poisonous.” This serves as the fundamental principle of homeopathy—like cures like. A substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used in diluted form to treat similar symptoms in someone who is sick. 

This all seemed pertinent to this month’s astrology cycle, where there are a number of retrogrades, directs, and Taurus/Scorpio energy, which have to do with transformation, survival, health, growth, and sometimes poison. From the Soul realm, whether something is poison or medicine depends on perception of the mind and time. Time can change everything, including our perceptions. What was once the worst thing might actually become the best force for evolution and growth over time. 

There is a timeless lesson that we are like the ocean. The churning of the surface waves represents our mind and ego. But beneath the turbulent surface lies the calming depths of our Soul. If we identify with the waves, we may be swept around, but if we seek our true selves and dive deep beneath the surface, we will remember our eternal self as the vast ocean of spirit.
This month’s astrology is full of waves on the surface of the ocean, churning and turning with aspects and movement from the personal planets. If we stay at the surface, we may get lost. But there are deeper tones and more profound guidance coming from the Soul and the great depths of consciousness unfolding. Tune into your spiritual heart at this time and seek the guidance of your Soul, your intuition, and your inner wisdom. “As The Surface Waves Churn, Dive Deep Beneath To Learn.”

Now begins eclipse season and the reason for our mantra. The word eclipse means to “cut” or “clip.” They occur when the Sun, the Moon, and the Earth align at the mystical points in the sky called the Moon’s Nodes. For the journey of the Soul and the Collective Consciousness, these are points of evolution, transformation, and cutting away what is not serving the greater harmony, meaning the cosmic flow of Karma & Dharma. 

These portals of transformation will occur whether we are conscious of them or not, so it is best to get clear and tune into what is being called to the cutting block. Is this bad or good? Neither— it depends on our own free will choices and understanding of our karma and dharma. If we are aligned, this could be like the farmer in an abundant wheat field harvesting with a grateful heart because the time is right. Or it can be the revelation of a karmic pattern that we previously were unable to see or unwilling to acknowledge, brought to the forefront so that we can cut it out and transform it, allowing us to move forward with more harmony and grace.

Trust. Wholeness. Coherence. Harmony.

Speaking these words calls in their essence. We feel trust when we speak and meditate on trust. We feel more whole when we visualize and embrace wholeness. We feel coherent and harmonious when we use language and ideas that support these concepts.

When we hold doubt in our minds and thoughts, it clouds our inner vision and purity of heart. Doubt is a veil that covers our innate nature of trust, faith, and love.

We are moving through cycles of great change in our inner and outer worlds. Our perceptions and desires may be shifting. Collectively, we are being magnetized toward love, connection, inter-being, and trust. Trust that these changes are rhythms and tones revealing more of the heart’s true coherence and possibilities for inter-being. Let doubt softly surrender to trust and be held. Know that so many are wanting, praying, dancing, singing, and loving for these healing and revealing times. Hold each other up and trust. Many energies this moon cycle support and illuminate the “call to cancel your doubt and trust.”

The sage Ramana Maharishi taught that the path to Self-realization is through the Spiritual Heart. All other manifestations we encounter along the journey are merely illusions born of ego and mind. When distracted, our minds constantly seek outside the Self, becoming lost in maya. But when turned inward toward the cave of the heart—toward Brahman—we begin to realize our true Self. The wisdom lies in its simplicity: we are asked to “drop the mind into the heart.”

“Rise With The Sun, And Catch The Energy Of The Day.” This is a beautiful teaching from the yogic tradition that our teacher Saul David Raye shared with us, and we feel it is true. When you rise with the Sun, you catch the energy and spirit of the day- and the life. The Sun is an external guide to mirror our own inner sun of the heart which the yogis call the Hridyam.

Astrology Report: This astrology cycle is filled with retrogrades, direct movements, seasonal shifts, planetary sign transitions, eclipses, and abundant Pisces, Virgo, and Aries energy. The cosmos is vibrating, and it’s here to awaken your soul. All of this energy makes us feel the Van Morrison song “Into the Mystic.” The mystic embodies Pisces energy, and Van belts out, “Rock Your Gypsy Soul.” This serves as our theme for the lunar cycle.

In truth, all of astrology is about our union with the spiritual state. All of the astrological signs are consciousness rays illuminating the same Universal Energy and the same Central Sun of Spirit. Just as each of us is a ray of consciousness radiating out from the One, we are all one energy, one love. This is the essence, foundation, and core of the Yogic Teachings and Astrology.
