Arthur Rackham 1908

 

Cahooting in the Faery Realm

 

of Pragmatic Mysticism

 

 

Grand Trine in Earth…

(Sun, Saturn, MC, Uranus)

 

(and another – Pluto, Ceres, Juno)

 

Saturn (NASA)

 

*Saturn stationing direct Sept 6th…

 

*We are in deep dedicated back-stage incubation….

 

*Good to wonder –  to what are we dedicated

in the micro and macro realms…?

 

Arthur Rackham

 

Saturn trines Sun at 4+ Virgo (my Moon!)

– “Irishman dreams of little people…”

*Micro helpers from the Faery Realm are

available for collaborative engagement…

if we are kind to the little beings…

teensy spider, teensy snake,

bacteria, tardigrades…

 

and what further guides us

to the Faery Realm?

 

*Desire…!

 

*Mars stationing-Direct today!

…So distinctively bright red, overhead at night

at the “Gypsy Reading tea leaves,” degree,

in Capricorn, the sign of its exaltation,

Saturn’s sign. In Myth and Folk Tale,

often when the heroine/hero doesn’t know

where they are going, the beggar/wise Sufi

bestows upon them an iron ball.

 

Mars (NASA 2018)

 

Iron is sacred to Mars.  

“Here, toss this ball,

and follow where it goes…”

 

“The iron ball follows gravity

and rolls to the center of all things…

the Faery realm. Since everything revolves

around the center of gravity, the faery realm

contains the secrets of planetary orbits,

the ordered dance of the spheres.

Thus desire brings us into synch with

the rhythm of the cosmos and

makes us it’s heroic agents.”

(Quoting myself from Mars chapter

of Making the Gods Work for You” p. 189 – ha~!)

 

Delphic Sibyl by Michelangelo

 

The successful hero heeds all advice

– from wise animals, plants, and

even on occasion, humans.

Paracelsus concurs, “From time to time, you

must consult old women, gypsies, magicians,

wayfarers and all manner of peasant folk…

for these have more knowledge about

wise conduct than all the high colleges…”

 

and so we shall…

 

Planet montage

 

Glorious night-time show:

Venus-Jupiter-Saturn-Mars-Moon

all in the ecliptic sky sweep tonight…

 

Beauty-Story-Dedication-Desire

animates the whole shebang…°

 

(°shebang “might be mangled pronunciations

of French char-à-banc, a bus-like wagon

with many seats. For an older guess:

[Shebang] a theatrical or other performance

in a public hall, has its origin probably in a

corruption of the Frenchcabane, a hut…” OED)

 

*and for bonus points:

Quintiles abounding, (7!)

doors tossed wide open…

Portals between worlds available…

We shall animate together tonight – this week…

 

and

Mercury squares Jupiter

 

*Illuminating all that

is “throwing shade.”

The previously invisible

becomes visible…

and we can help…

 

These are the realms most skookum

for our Trickster selves to cavort…
