Tweaking the House until it Sings…!

All else flows from this fun task before us all… 
Preparing for the sacramental Solstice wedding

O most glorious ally-accomplices in all realms, Council,
Plants Planets….
Flora Fauna Fungi!

Uranus Conjoin Mercury and Vesta (23 Taurus), the latter two exactly trine the Moon at 23 + Capricorn…

Taurus, throat, voice, tweak, beautify, until all be singing…
(Have great intro song, with which we can all sing along)

Moon in Capricorn’s earliest symbol is the council dedicated to the next 7 generations.
OK!

We have a theme..
Sun = “Woman gives rousing speech on behalf of the Earth…”
Saturn 7+ Pisces : “girl with a bugle calling in a new tide of cultural energy.”

Saturn sextiles Jupiter 4+ Taurus, reminding us that panic calls for more connection to Pan!

Getting wittily wise to our own game…then to dissolve the old befoiblements that no longer amuse us…

Challenges take us to a deep place where we re-connect with our enthusiasm for our craft.

What we love in our life.
Jupiter says, whatever you love – I bestow more!

And enthusiasm magnetizes abundance (of whatever we have wittily thought was a lack – of time, money, love etc…)
Breathe slowly….

In-sourcing our Saturn via dedication –
Remains an on-going great thing to do…

Water reflects a reverse image….
Reversal Magic 

Initiation of Wizard in Ursula LeGuin’s fantabulous “Wizard of Earthsea.” 

Pursued by adversity, a great bleakness for which he/we had inadvertently opened a door, 
young Wizard returns to his original wise Mentor, who says, “Ah, the pursued must become the the pursuer. Now to do reversal magic … Go back to the Spring, & its water fall, that gave you your true name- 

and as you gaze- do not be the stick swirled in the Stream, Become the Stream – then go forth to dree your weird.” (close enough) 

Our task of remembering who we are, and what be our gifts.. 

from ancestor-ally….

Wind-horse 

The self-existing energy that comes from letting go is called wind-horse. Wind is the energy of basic goodness, strong, exuberant and brilliant. At the same time, basic goodness can be ridden, or employed in your life, which is the principle of the horse. When you contact to the energy of wind-horse, you can naturally let go of worrying about your own state of mind and you can begin to think of others. If you are unable to let go of your selfishness, you might freeze wind-horse into ice. 

Kublai Khan was “tamed” by the illustrious Tibetan Buddhist masters  and turned his prowess (wind-horse) toward supporting the growth and practice of Buddha-dharma and Buddhist culture. Earlier, in India, the third century C.E. Buddhist Emperor Ashoka began his career as a ruthless military monarch carrying out a Machiavellian conquest of most of the Indian subcontinent. After a sudden piercing recognition of the sheer horror and destruction he had caused, he turned his mind and life about face, and dedicated the rest of his years to nurturing, promoting, and spreading Buddhist principles, philosophies, practice, and social models. In doing so, he employed the very military terminology and imagery that he wielded as a tyrant, but turned it around to express the exuberant forces of Buddhist spirituality.  

Such a term as “himsa”, or “violent force”, was turned to “ahimsa”, or “Non-Violence Force”, and “victory”, was converted to “Victory of Dharma”. (Dharma refers to both the Buddhist path and doctrine as well as the truth it engenders). And so, wind-horse is a formidable force all the more potent and efficacious because it is free of aggression and resistance. Conversely, wind-horse is born from and adorned with the qualities of wisdom, compassion, and benevolent power. 

“Basic goodness” does not refer to some naive “goody goody” belief that all things are all well and good despite the difficulty, pain and abject horror so persistent in the world, if only one can seal oneself away from those realities. Nor is it a hollow promise that in the end everything will be okay. Nor is it a branded commodity on the religious roster of belief systems.Rather, it refers to a fundamental strength and integrity that has the power to work with both positive and negative situations without being unrealistically bound by either. It is “good” precisely because it is not caught in the aggression of good versus bad. Thus it transcends selfishness, territoriality, self-righteousness, arrogance, and other more limiting human characteristics, the very opposites of wind-horse. The “basic” aspect is that once those very limiting human characteristics are let go, then basic goodness, having been basic to one’s life and situation all along, shines forth with all its qualities and strengths, such as wind-horse.
