just some expressions of some of my astro placements.


Sun in 7th, Moon in 1st

Oh honey filled pleasing light,
Oh soul drifting with delight,
So far away from me.

Who is me, is me my mind,
Identifying with the signs,
Oh dear why did you go so far?

A mind deserted stranded,
In a strange land
In a strange place,
Cannot find what it longs for,
In this desolate waste.

Seeking to feel whole,
Through connecting with the lost soul,
Thats drifting further and further away,
And oh my mind tried to find the root,
And now its blown away.

Sometimes I see you in a glimmer,
I watch at sunset and see 
You shimmer
You draw me out but I can't find
Enough of you for peace of mind.

Oh soul divided!
Oh dark and light!
Neither day nor night,
Oh Inbetween I call to thee.
Don't you know I can not leave?
This sun will never set!

Oh mind so pointed, focused, directed,
It's easier to know you.
But what can be known about the distant star,
Only drifting subtle fragments.

Come back!
Back to the center of the galaxy,
My mind has dived in their
But not my soul.

Missing in action,
AWOL
Occasionally I catch glimpses
On another plane.
Because on another level I've gone to meet you.
To find out what you have learnt.
You are my minds goal and my journey,
My so(u)le destination.

Moon meets Sun in the 7th of the deeper being.

Look to the east, and he will rise again...
Do not lament for the setting one,
For he will rise again.

----------

In the East you became an intense light, 
In the South East you were pure devotion
In the South you were spurred to action
In the Southwest you lost your tail
In the West you moved slowly
In the Northwest you became nectar
In the North you showed your intelligence
In the North East you taught and advised.
In the center you lost your head...

At the edge of the Universe sat Er Lang Shen, sipping tea in his mountain retreat, I could of sat and drank tea with him for aeons, and I almost did, but something beyond was calling...

My name was  Lao shao Niao.

Christian Soma sacrifice

Interesting...

"When Christ says at the last communion that "this is my body"  the Greek term for body is Soma the Vedic name for the God of the immortal wine and nectar. The last communion is the the Christian Soma sacrifice."

- Pg. 223, David Frawley, Gods Sages and Kings

Was aware that Soma meant body in Greek, but never made that connection before!

The last few sunsets have been nice with Venus and the crescent moon becoming viewable in the western sky above shortly after the Sun sinks below the horizon. The Sun has also seemed to dance sliding across just before it plunges towards the underworld.

From "Vasistha's Yoga" translated by Swami Venkatesananda

"In this world whatever is gained is gained only by self-effort; where failure is encountered it is seen that there has been slackness in the effort. This is obvious; but what is called fate is fictitious and is not seen.

Self-effort, Rama, is that mental, verbal and physical action which is in accordance with the instructions  of holy person well versed in the scriptures. It is only by such effort that Indra became king of heaven, that Brahma became the creator, and the other deities earned their place.

Self effort is of  two categories: that of past births and that of this birth. The latter effectively counteracts the  former. Fate is none other then self effort of a past incarnation. There is constant conflict between these two in this incarnation; and that which is more powerful triumphs.

Self-effort which is not in accord with the scriptures is motivated by delusion. When there is obstruction in the fruition of self-effort one should examine it to see if there is such deluded action, and if there is it should be immediately corrected . There is no power greater then right action in the present. Hence one should take recourse to self-effort; grinding ones teeth, and one should overcome evil by good and fate by present effort.

The lazy man is worse then a donkey. One should never yield to laziness but strive to attain liberation, seeing that life is ebbing away every moment. One should not revel in the filth known as sense pleasures as a worm revels in pus.

One who says "Fate is directing me to do this"  is brainless, and the goddess of fortune abandons him. Hence by self effort acquire wisdom and then realise that self-effort is not without its own end, in the direct realisation of truth."

Growth and Limitation

So many people get overly excited about the things that they can "change", but rarely is the same excitement seen around the things they "cannot change".

I'm personally more excited about the things I cannot change, as growth becomes more focussed, when one realises one's own limitations.

Perhaps in some ways, the things that one can 'change', most of the time, are less likely to lead to growth, and are more likely to lead to being lead in circles.

Bad habits more readily fall away when one realises the limitations of them, when I realised the limitation of drinking alcohol, it lost all its appeal for example, and now I could never go back to drinking it.

It's similar with people, friends were my greatest attachment, but then I realised the limitations of them, and they too lost their appeal, now I can never feel dependant on the promise of what they represent again. I thought about that the other day, how I will never again feel the same way I used to feel where my friends were the entire universe, and the most central part of my attention and awareness. I used to only feel "complete" when engaged in conversation with friends I was stimulated in an excitable way with. In the Gemini way.

Now that excitement, is not with friends, which is good because it was illusory anyway, just some product of nervous energy that had built up within me, out of my social ineptitude and inability to face my own suffering.

Now when I interact with others, there is less selfishness there, because I'm less likely to want to try and turn them into my personal entertainment or feel good drug.

Two interesting passages from Siva Mahapurana

Translated by: Shanti Lal Nagar

---

Indra speaking to Kamadeva:

A donor can be tested at the time of famine, the warriors test is the battlefield, the test of a friend is at the time of adversity and the test of the women is at the time of poverty or financial crisis.

Truth and humility can be tested at the time of calamity. A real friend can be tested at the time of distress and also is based on what he does in the absence."

Rudra Samhita, (Parvati Khanda) Chapter 17 pg 502

---

Sage Vasishta speaking to Himalaya (Mountain):

"O mountain, three types of words are stated to be in the world. A learned person knowing all the lores, can well understand them by means of his pure vision of knowledge.

Some of the words which are initially pleasing, but subsequently prove to be false and painful. Such words are spoken by enemies alone.

There are some words, which appear harsh in the beginning but are found pleasant subsequently. Such words are spoken by the compassionate and religious minded kinsmen.

The words which are as sweet as the nectar and bestow pleasure being essence of truth, besides being beneficial, are considered to be the best.

O Mountain there are the three types of words, which have been prescribed in the treaties on polity."

- Rudra Samhita, (Parvati Khanda) Chapter 33 pg 569

Interesting...

I found this very interesting. I am interested in how different deities have prominence in different time periods, but mostly I found the definition of sin interesting.


"69.1. Varuna’s great career ended rather disappointingly; but, it did leave behind a rich legacy of wonderful concepts and norms of behavior in personal and social life (Rta) that have endured even to this day. Those laws are universal; applicable at all times and therefore eternal. The concept of Rta asserts that the order in nature is self regulated and operates by its own laws (svabhava). Ensuring the perpetuation of the order and harmony in nature is as sacred as it is in conduct of one’s life. That is because; Rta emphasizes the integrity of all forms of life and ecological systems. The principle of Rta recognizes our oneness with our environment and our unity with all life on earth. It is the framework that binds together man, nature and god. Rta is thus the Dharma that pervades and protects all life.
69.2. When that order and harmony is ruptured, the disruptive elements of disorder, chaos and falsehood (an-rta) step in, bringing in their wake ugliness, dishonesty and, decay into life. It is explained; a sin is any inharmonious action done with avarice to gain some immediate and temporary gain. Thus, injuring the harmony that exists in nature and among men is in fact a sin; and attracts punishment. The sin arises because of frailties and human weaknesses; and not because of demons. The evil in the hearts and minds of men are the real demons.
69.3. Sin is compared to unpaid debt (rna); it is a burden and an act of bad faith. The best way to cleanse the sin is to come face to face with it; own it; confess to it; and seek forgiveness with a promise not to err again. Cleansing is in the heart, mind and deed; not in the rituals. That is the Varuna’s way.
69.4. Paschatapa –‘after the burning heat’- signifies the purifying fire of repentance. The life-giving waters over which Varuna presides also signifies purity. Varuna is intimately associated with the both. Thus the Varuna-principle stands for purity in life, in all its aspects. Salutations to Varuna the icon of purity."

Purifying fire is very exciting.

Recent Experience with the Celestial bodies...

Two nights ago it was interesting.

I went outside friday night to chant to Venus, (its her day, and also I chose an hour owned by her) and observe the various celestial bodies.

It was rather cloudy at the start but then the clouds cleared. The moon was brightly shinning, Vega and Altair were spotted quickly, and I'm beginning to recognise the Libra constellation, Scorpio is still the easiest to spot :)

I'm really keen to understand different calendar systems at the moment. Especially, why different cultures picked particular points as the beginning of their year, and differences between lunar and solar, and lunisolar and what they were used for.

Jupiter was rising in the east. And I started my Osiris chant, and then I saw a really huge shooting star!

Also the Moon had that coloured ring it around it, that is rainbowish coloured.

Was really beautiful, sometimes my mind feels transported to times and place where there was that deep connection to living in tune with the movement of celesital bodies and alignments etc.

It just seems to create these extra passageways in the brain just contemplating it.

I also thought it would be interesting to see which Nakshatra the new moon lies in at the beginning of the Chinese Calendar each year. And I found through trying about six random years, that it was commonly in Shravana or Dhanishta.

The general idea they follow to calculate the beginning of the year is the second new moon after the December solstice.

I also thought it interesting to note which Nakshatra the equinox and solstices are currently falling in:



March Equinox is in Uttarabhadrapada. Autumn Equinox in Southern Hemisphere, Spring in North. Water/Pisces.

September Equinox is in Uttaraphalguni. Spring Equinox in Southern Hemisphere, Autumn in North 
Earth/Virgo.

December solstice Sun in Mula. Summer Solstice in Southern Hemisphere, Winter in North
Fire/Sagittarius.

June solstice Sun in Mrigshira Air. Winter Solstice in Southern Hemisphere, Summer in North
Air/Gemini.

Looking at these like "four corners" of the seasonsal points, also each one currently falls in a sign of each element (using four element system), which I have placed with them.

It is also interesting in relation to the 2012 solstice, Sun aligning with the galactic center, that nearly everywhere I read it only mentions it in a "Northen Hemishphere centric" way. Its always, "The Winter solstice". This is purely speculative, but I wonder if there would be different effect in the different hemispheres?  As far as whatever occurs on the date. Obviously there is a lot of hype about the date, and all sorts of different ideas floating about... but just thinking along the terms of how the winter solstice is about the returning of the light, and the summer solstice is the receding of the light, I wonder if it could be that those in the Northern Hemisphere would more likely experience a "return of light" (such as wisdom, enlightening etc) and the Southern Hemisphere plunging into darkness... (ignorance  etc)????

Sometimes I don't know if my mind is just demented trying to make connections with things that bare no resemblance to reality or if I'm actually on to something...

In the past it seems when I have been able to verify the results of my little attempt at making connections it usually turns out to be a 50% success rate. Sometimes they are so spot on, and other times completely off!

I want to prepare some research on "menstuation in various cultures" soon, found a really interesting part in the Garuda Purana, about the reason behind women having "menses", that sparked me off thinking about it.

Sun Gazing...Devotion

Been experimenting with Sun gazing.

It's been rather cloudy of late so difficult to do to full extent.

At sunset I go to the beach, take of my shoes, stand bare foot on the sand, say a prayer and bow to the Sun, then I gaze at the Sun.

When I've done it for awhile I will talk more here about the results.

--

To me its a delight to cut away all manner of things that have outlived their usefulness. I'm not sentimental about the past.

I never once looked back fondly on a period of my life and thought "ghee I wish that summer of 89 never ended"...

I'm glad it ended! Cause whenever I grow into a new skin, I couldn't care less about the old one!

And anyway... If it was so 'great' it wouldn't of ended..... only the eternal is so great it never ends. Why try to make the impermanent the eternal? When it clearly isn't????

Where I am at the current moment is always better then where I was in the past, when new things enter my mindstream and lay waste to old ideas, I welcome it. The funeral pyre is a happy place...

My favourite current prayer:

"I offer myself as a conscious sacrifice to the Divine fires of transformation".

--

Oh it feels really primal to chant the name Osiris, in a real low base-y voice. Which is what my last post was about, as I had made a promise that I needed to keep, sometimes I feel there are just too many deities to relate to in one day!!!! I just want to have as many bases covered as possible. And not only that, I feel my life force just gravitating towards certain ones.

Ideal shrine:

Rock formations that relate to different astrological bodies, or important calendar dates etc.

Creating out in some natural environment, a field where in each direction is the domain of the corresponding planet, and having in that space, things pertaining to that planet. Such as the foods relating to each, colours, deities, symbols, geometric patterns etc

I found this part really interesting from the Srimad Bhagavatam

The Guild has been meeting once a week to explore different spiritual texts. We have been through the Bhagavad Gita, and the Dao De Jing, and we are also making our way through the Srimad Bhagavatam.


Very interesting.

Chapter 17Punishment and Reward of Kali



(1) Sûta said: "There [at the Sarasvatî river] the king observed how a s'ûdra who was dressed like a king was beating a cow and a bull with a club, as if there was no one to protect them. (2) The bull, that was as white as a lotus, terrified of being beaten by the s'ûdra urinated and trembled out of fear, standing on one leg only. (3) The cow also, on itself a religious example but now rendered poor and distressed because of the s'ûdra who beated her legs, was without a calf and had tears in her eyes while she in her weakness hankered for some grass to eat. (4) From his with gold embossed chariot Parîkchit, well equipped with bow and arrows, asked with a thundering voice: (5) 'Who are you to think that you in this place can violently kill the helpless who fall under my protection! As an actor you make a powerful appearance dressed up like a God-conscious man, but you behave like someone who never saw the light of civilization [of being twice-born]. (6) Do you think that because Lord Krishna and the carrier of the bow the Gândîva [Arjuna] have disappeared from the scene, you can secretly beat an innocent cow? Being a culprit that way you deserve it to be killed!'

(7) 'And you', he said turning to the bull, 'are you just a bull that, as white as a lotus, moves on one leg and has lost three legs or are you some demigod who in the form of a bull makes us sad? (8) Except for the case of you having tears in your eyes because of someone else, under the protection [of the arms] of any of the kings of the Kuru dynasty there  has never been such grievance on earth(9)  O son of Surabhi [the celestial cow], in my kingdom there will be no lamentation and therefore do not fear the s'ûdra, and dear mother cow, do not cry. As long as I am alive as the ruler and subduer of the envious you will fare well! (10-11) O chaste one, he in whose state the living beings are terrified because of miscreants, will lose his fame, longevity, fortune and good birth. It is certainly the supreme duty of the kings to subdue in order to put an end to the misery of the ones who suffer and therefore I shall kill this most wretched man who is so violent with other living beings. (12) Who is the one who has cut your three legs, o son of Surabhi? What happened to you has never happened before in this royal state of kings who live in respect of Lord Krishna. (13) O bull, you are honest and without offenses, tell me therefore about him who mutilated you and tarnished the reputation of the sons of Prithâ. (14) Those who make the sinless suffer may fear me wherever they are, for I will curb the actions of the miscreants and restore the wellfare of the ones who are honest. (15) The upstart who offends innocent living beings I shall forthwith defeat, whether he's a demigod from heaven with armor and decorations or not. (16) It is certainly the holy duty of the head of state to always protect the ones who faithfully perform their duty and, safely according the scriptures, chastise those in this world who have strayed from the path.'

(17) The personality of religion said: 'All you said speaking for the sake of the freedom from anxiety of those who are suffering is befitting for someone of the Pândava dynasty, the dynasty of which the qualities led Lord Krishna to behave like a servant and such. (18) O greatest among the human beings, because the person is bewildered as a consequence of all the differences of opinion, we cannot tell who [or what] would be the cause of all human suffering. (19) Some declare in defiance of all duality that one suffers because of one's own actions, others speak of supernatural causes, while still others say that it is all due to the operation of material nature or the consequence of accepting outside authorities.(20) Some also conclude that it is a matter which defies explanation and comprehension. Who of them would be right in this matter o sage amongst the kings, is left to your own power of judgement.' "

(21) Sûta said: "Parîkchit, who attentively had followed what the personality of religion had to say, o best among the brahmins, mindfully replied. (22) 'You o knower of the duties, o dharma in the form of a bull, speak this way [of the unknown cause] only because you know that [just as it is with a guru who pointing out the karma takes the karma upon him] he who points out the wrongdoer ends up in the position of doing wrong himself. (23) In other words: the Lord His ways with the material world can not be put in words nor be conceived by living beings. (24) Penance, cleanliness, compassion and truthfulness [tapas, s'auca, dayâ, satya] are the legs that established the age of truth [Satya-yuga, the 'old days'], but because of irreligiosity three of them have broken in conceit, clinging to intercourse and intoxication. (25) At present, o personality of religion, you are hobbling along on the one leg of truthfulness while quarrel personified [Kali] who flourishes on deceit, irreligiously tries to destroy that leg too. (26)Through the actions of the Supreme Lord personally mother earth has been relieved of a great burden. His all-auspicious footprints brought good fortune everywhere. (27) Lamenting with tears in her eyes the unfortunate and chaste one [mother earth] who was deserted by Him is now enjoyed by lower-class people who, devoid of the culture of learning, pose as rulers in my place.'

(28) Thus the personalities of religion and mother earth were pacified by the great warrior who took up his sharp sword in order to kill Kali, the root cause of irreligion. (29) Realizing that the king wanted to kill him, Kali, stressed from the fear, abandoned his royal atire and in full surrender bowed his head down at the feet. (30) Out of compassion he who is kind to the poor and capable of handling worship with a smile refrained from killing the one who had fallen at the feet of the hero that he was, he, the hero of whom one says that he is worthy of being glorified. (31)The king said: 'Do not fear, for you have surrendered yourself with folded hands. We certainly inherited the fame of Arjuna, but that doesn't mean that you can be allowed to stay in my kingdom. You are a friend of irreligion after all. (32) With you physically present as a god of man, everywhere the irreligion of greed, falsehood, robbery, incivility, treachery, misfortune, cheating, quarrel and vanity and all of that will be abound in the masses. (33) For that reason, o friend of irreligion, you do not deserve it to remain in the vicinity of those places where the experts of religion and the truth duly and expertly are of worship with sacrifices for the Lord of Sacrifices. (34) In such sacrificial ceremonies the Supreme Personality of God, the Lord, is worshiped as the Soul of all worshipable deities. In that form He spreads welfare, for He is the to all desires inviolable Supersoul who is present inside as well as outside, just like the air is for all that moves and not moves.' "

(35) Sûta said: "That way being addressed by king Parîkchit, the personality of Kali seeing him ready with a raised sword speaking like Yamarâja, the Lord of Death, trembled. (36) Kali said: 'Wherever I may live under your order, o Emperor, I will always have to face the reign of your bow and arrows. (37) Therefore please, o chief of the protectors of the religion, allot me a place where I may count on a permanent stay under your rule.' "

(38) Sûta said: "Thus being petitioned, he gave Kali the permission to dwell in places where the four sinful activities of gambling, drinking, prostitution and animal slaughter [dyûtam, pânam, striyah, sûnâ] were taking place. (39) Next to that  the master, upon his insistent begging, alotted him the place where there is gold, for gold by passion is the fifth sin bringing falsity, intoxication, lust and enmity. (40) Thus under the direction of the son of Uttarâ were the five dwelling places given to Kali where indeed irreligion is encouraged. (41) For that reason a person desiring his well-being should never resort to any of these places, especially not those persons who follow the path of liberation, the royalty, the state officials and the teachers. (42) By encouraging activities that restored the bull's three lost legs of austerity, cleanliness and compassion, the earth [by King Parîkchit] was  perfectly improved. (43-44)

Rig Veda

I just wanted to post some of the hymns from the Rig Veda, that stood out for me, whilst reading the book "Wisdom of the Veda" by M.P Pandit. They stood out in the sense that they captured my life force in a strong way.

Found Vega!

Well I've been putting special attention on trying to identify the brightest stars/planets in the sky, (thought that would be easiest as a beginning exercise to get to know the night skies better) through using the reference of the astronomy program Stellarium.

Interestingly when I located Mars, and there was this other star next to it that was really pale

I wondered about the closeness between Mars and the star, so looked on Stellarium and it was called: Zavijava.

I found this:

"Zavijava probably derives from Al Zawiyah which among other things mean a small Mosque, subsidiary to a larger one nearby. Since such a Mosque is very much a symbol of authority in its locality, as a parish church is in other communities, the idea conveyed here is of someone holding a position of command, but subject to a higher command behind them. Al Araf (another name for this star) 'Those who Send Forth' (others to carry out their orders), or 'Those who are Sent Forth ...' The planetary simile (Mercury-Mars) suggests one who has the intelligence and energy to be sent forth and not need a higher authority to lead". [The Living Stars, Dr Eric Morse, 1988, Amethyst Books, ISBN 0-944256-02-3]." http://www.constellationsofwords.com/stars/Zavijava.html

Of course the most wonderful thing for me, was finally being able to see VEGA!

I had thought it was not viewable where I was, but low and behold Stellarium showed that it would be at a low angle in the winter months, and luckily it rose higher then the house lines!!!!!

I had a really interesting dream where I was given this special book by a person of some kind of Indian origin, it was a little red book, and in the dream it was supposed to be about Shiva. It was interesting because in the dream I woke up, after hearing this banging noise and went to investigate, and then there is this man standing there, and at first I thought he was a potential intruder, but he didn't say anything and just approached me and handed me the book through the window.

When I held on to the book I remember feeling like the book was very important and I did not want to loose it, so I did not put it down. Then I had this strong feeling that when I woke up (I had some awareness then that I was in a dream), that I would be able to take the book with me.

Solar Return been and gone, bring on the Lunar Queen...

Another Solar Return past....

I'm doing an exercise currently to get to know the Nakshatras better.

I've been singing to the lunar energy everyday, I'm determined to heal my menstual cycle. Seeking nourishment from the Un-obstructed flow of the lunar energy.

So many women are beset with menstrual difficulties, imbalances etc. I have tried many different methods to help heal my own, and when in pain I find a few things help in conjunction with one another:

Peppermint/chamomile tea
Daily Aloe Vera
Connecting with Lunar Deities, singing prayers to the Moon.
Keeping low to the ground, postures that lower the head and arms, bending the back.
Eating apples, drinking freshly made juices.
Staying away from soy beans, chocolate, fried foods, anything heavy for the body to digest etc.

No plan


It seems its must easier for me to write a story just letting it flow and not trying to "plan it", the planning just seems to kill it. It also makes it rather boring to write.

The open vast expansive sky, too large for a world of limited confines.

Solar return soon

Solar return is soon.

I prepare a morning ritual, to go back to my birth name on the day, 15th. Seeing the moon will be in Magha that day it seemed from the descriptions it will be good for that.

I also spend the day cleaning my space, to bring in fresh energy.

I also enter Moon period soon, and it will be bye bye to the Sun period. I feel in the closing days that there are some important things to consolidate. I did wonder if I would survive the Sun/Venus but so far I'm still here, only got until the 11th of July to go.

I am excited about the change though.

---

Thought: Walk around town carrying a heavy weight on top of my head whilst screaming out loudly...

"See.. See.... there is this heavy weight upon me, one false move and it will crush me... no time for frivolity, or dilly dallying about... see see..."

But I do wonder if anyone would get the symbology of it :P

Maybe only the Ravens...
