Ascendent




Animals are protecting their territories and so are we.

A male bird occupies a certain area where he has his family: wife, eggs, chickens…. and a female moose also has her area where she protects her calf and if you get too close to her or the calf she will not at all be as cosmic and loving as the animals on facebook. She will attack you and she can be quite dangerous.

The wild animals understand each other and they know where they have each other. It is just we, people, who can usually not understand their language. Maybe I should say “we = the White Man”. We are afraid of the wolves while the Red Indians say that they hunt together with the wolves.

The animals have a perfect language that they understand and the Red Indians understand them so much that they (at least some of them) even have an “astrological map” with 12 animals symbolising the 12 signs. This must be a new invention after having seen the astrological charts, but it shows how you can use your knowledge about animals to understand the human psyche. Are you a deer, a falcon, a mouse or a buffalo?

For us it is not so easy to relate to these animals as we have maybe not even seen them. At maximum we know something about cats, dogs or horses.

Animals do not behave according to laws, written on papers, they have their laws written in their bodies, brains, hearts…. and I would say that an animal follows the fluctuations in the body´s electromagnetic field, which we can call aura or maybe “shield”.
These fluctuations automatically start reactions and body movements and these movements are also triggers to other animals, who instantly read the messages and react.
It is a perfect language for them, but we humans have a language that is so advanced that it is no longer expressing our wishes, reactions, moods and feelings in a direct way.

Well, higher animals can also lie and pretend and be tricky, but not as much as we do.

In the eyes of other people you are a very nice person and when you are home you are someone else. Maybe you smile to people and say that they are “so nice” while you think that they are just stupid, which is also what you say about them when they cannot hear it.
People will perceive you mask and not you. You will perceive the world by perceiving the reactions to your mask. Well, why not? Of course. You believe that they react to you, but they do not know you. They react to the triggers that you send out.

We can see our world as a theatre where we are having different roles to play and we get (take) a role that we try to master.
It means that in daytime we have to cease to be who we are inside. Instead of knowing more and more about our insides we know more and more about our masks.
We earn money from the fitness of our outsides, so the insides can wait! When I get older I will...

But we might feel lost earlier, empty (not a wonder!) and get depressed. So we understand that we have to discover our “true self” or “higher mind” or “God” or whatever it is that is hiding in the unknown.

But we don’t want a life-long training - it should be a relatively quick fix and some just grab the ssr-pills, while others go to a therapy.
But… why just be content with the second best? Why not go for the ultimate super goal? Illumination! If Buddha could I can too!
Just fill your life with new triggers like angels, candles, hearts, divine music and positive thoughts. Paint your walls white and play cosmic music. Well, why not?

You have a white dress, a crystal on your chest and white curly hair and you tell all people that you love them. Namaste! You have become love and no other emotion is ever allowed to enter your divine soul. You are free!

Now comes the tricky thing!

Our brain is created to perform a dance with all kinds of emotions, thoughts and feelings and we are still using the lower parts of the brain so our instincts are still there.
Instinct does not just mean food, fight or sex - it means an instant, unconscious reaction to a trigger.

If I have not really looked very deep into my psyche I do not know where the reaction comes from. Pof… suddenly it is there!

Usually we believe that such a reaction is “reality” in the sense of being something that is created by the outer world and by someone else.
But why did I react to that trigger? If not all people react to it - why do I?
Because I am so highly sensitive because I am so highly spiritual???
Hmm...? Indian gurus, who are kind of highly developed, are, as I have heard, less reactive to triggers than normal people.

Memories of triggers are in the genes, but also programmed by happenings in the past: we have learned to react to them. No matter how many angels, kittens and sunsets you put on your facebook page you will still have the dancers of the instincts in your brain, nerves and heart. Your inner planets cannot just be killed - they have to perform their duties and they can be active on both a lower and a higher level. They cannot just be educated by being suppressed, but they can be recognized and taken up to a higher level.

They are necessary for life and the more they get suppressed the more they get into opposition and search for more violent ways of being set free. They become the poor people in your universe.
They can turn into little demons if you start fighting them, and as they are parts of the brain they will win the fight.
Almost like the ego being an ugly guy if denied to much.

Seems like we try to do the same with Earth: if we kill all the bad and poor people we will just have the good and rich people left over and then the whole world will be good and rich! Yeah!

An animal defends his space and attacks an intruder, which usually steps back, unless his intension really is to take over.
We do the same. We lock the front door and often even put up a camera. We lock the car and we defend the kids and our belongings.
Even if the angelic person says that she loves everybody she would probably change her mind if ten gypsies also wanted to live in her apartment. 
Not even Mother Theresa took all the poor people to her home.

If you create an angel´s space around you, that is also a territory that you will defend, unless your angelic nature is totally natural, but then you probably have no need to show off with hearts, cosmic rays and crystals, so you have nothing to defend.

Freedom is another word for nothing more to lose.

The animals show their feelings immediately and get an immediate response and then the problem is over. But, of course, they have never decided that anger and Devil is the same.
So they do not return a month later in the middle of the night for a planned revenge. 

When the Red Indian builds his Medicine Wheel he builds a territory and inside of this circle he has more power than outside of it.
Just take a dog or a cat and place this animal in another dog´s or cat´s territory and you will see what happens to it´s energy!
The dog shrinks and the cat disappears.

We are the same, but we get trapped in situations where we cannot fight and also not disappear like the cat, 
maybe at a job . So we just shrink. Or we find some space to take over, even if it is just a chair.

I think that the mask that we carry around to show other people is a portable territory.
Native people make it more obvious when they take on those fantastically coloured masks. A mask can be to frighten the enemy and it can be to get into symbiosis with any kind of spirit. If you dress up like something you will feel like being it.
If you dress up for the carnival in Rio it is more obvious that your everyday personality is not this mask.

Whoops! Now we have four different parts to choose between: the carnival mask, the everyday mask and the inner person and the Higher Self.
I get a feeling that the Art of Masks could be a life long study of both how to make them, how to use them and how to identify with this or that archetype, god, spirit, personality, symbol, animal or part of the soul.

Not to talk about the dances between them and how these dances could be used in psychology and therapy.

I get a sensation that this is what they did in the good old days. Maybe the spiritual origin of theatre was to “dance the gods awake”.

Today we just dress up and take on a mask of normality to fit into society and we call the mask “I am…” We learn a behaviour that should give us money and a good reputation. This behaviour, including the knowledge that it requires, is a little portable territory, identity and weapon, and the old, physical fight about the space on the ground, is now turned into a fight about a product, an idea or a mental concept. We fight with words, pictures and mind manipulations. (Yes, bombs also... I know...)

The planets represent different “energies” and when they are talked about as gods they are more like different masks. But not masks that cover their true nature. The opposite! Masks, dresses and outfits that are supposed to show their real nature.

This could be something to play with!
Let´s say that you have Sun in Leo and Ascendent in Gemini.

Make a radiant, golden mask and put on a big, yellow, mantle. Just feel how you radiate your divine energy and how all people look up to you as you are the king of the place. Now you are your Sun-sign (because Leo is ruled by the Sun, if you had been a Libra it would have been Venus).

Dress up like Harlekin and jump around and tell people the truths by making a lot of crazy jokes. Quickly run around between them all, sing funny songs and chatter about everything - soon you will also be the one who knows everything because you have been everywhere. Now you are your Ascendent.
So you are a Leo with AC in Gemini.

Inside you will feel that you are the best and you find it natural that people should pay attention to you and listen to you. If they just understand that they should have you as focus… then you will also radiate all your splendid energy on them.
But unfortunately they do not know that you are the king because they see the Harlekin jumping around like a crazy.
The Harlekin jumps more and more and makes better and better jokes, but cannot understand why he is not placed on the throne where he should be.

The opposite: You are a Gemini with AC in Leo.
You know that you have been everywhere and you have seen it all and now you can tell about everything and you can also make a lot of good jokes about it.
As you have AC in Leo people will notice you and listen to you. You should be on the stage, travelling around with your jokes. A new stage every day.

But if this Gemini has his AC in Virgo he steps down from the stage, because he thinks it is more important to get the basics in order behind the scene. He can check and catalogize the texts, keep all the masks in perfect lines on the shelves and also have a perfect registry of all the parts of the costumes and check every little detail everywhere.

I think the Ascendent is the unconscious mask towards other people and maybe not the mask that is carefully planned and even learned on a workshop about how to get successful.
Maybe we can make our behaviour more conscious by dressing up in various ways that we are not used to.
Only changing between quite normal clothes can give me a feeling of having changed personality.

Or maybe it is just enough to leave the iPhone at home to get a chock from having lost your personal territory?

Fire Buffalo Woman



MARS IN TAURUS

All my family members and almost all my friends are flying here and flying there in the world, but I am not. I am just sitting here with all my pens and papers and all my bottles of color and now my kichen table also looks like a computer center, squeezed in between my heaps of books and paintings 
My wardrobe is full of paintings and my computer has 100.000 files and I cannot find anything.

But I keep going on. A day is “lost” if I have not produced at least one more object. Preferably a physical object, anything from a piece of furniture to a canvas painting or just some painted postcards or a nice photo.

Yes, I collect woods and boards to paint on and I collect tools and colors and….I think the computer has saved me from drowning in woods and paintings.
A new picture looks physical on the screen so my subconscious mind believes that it is OK.
My Mars in Taurus believes that it is a physical object. My Mars in Taurus gets the impression that I have produced yet a physical object because it can be seen with the eyes.
That is the point, because Mars in Taurus just loves things.
Mars in Taurus people like personal possessions! Their steady pace builds up a safe and solid place or a solid economy. Then they collect something that makes life nice.
To me, with Sun in Gemini, this sounds awfully boring, but I cannot avoid seeing that I am constantly at home where I am building, making something material. What would I be without all my interesting THINGS?
I call my home "my studio" - it sounds better. 


Taurus corresponds to the Second House, which is the house of money and belongings or of anything that you value, that gives you a sense of pleasure. Your possessions. The more the better.

Being a quick Gemini it can be a kind of conflict to have Mars in the slow Taurus, because the Gimini is the one who wants to go around everywhere all the time, wants to be everywhere and do everything and mainly just talk about it and quickly communicate different thoughts and ideas. 
But the Gemini is also connected to using the hands, so Gemini + Mars + Taurus (with Venus) = ideas and hands + activity + physical possessions (with beauty).
Handicraft can make my Sun and my Mars tolerate each other and co-work, even if they are not best friends. 


Other people like to take a walk in the forest. I do not! 
If I am in the forest I put up a tent and I put a carpet on the ground and then I make up a fire. I make a cosy bed and there I remain! Then I start building up something, even if it is just something made of stones and branches.

Other people can go out in the forest and make a little wheel of stones and sit there a couple of hours and find it fantastic. I do not. In such a situation I just miss my ordinary wheel that I already have constructed at another place.
It takes at least three days (maybe more) for me to "have my energy" settled down in a new "circle". 
In nature you can also carry around your own blanket to sit on (and feel at home in any place) but in our society it is not possible. 

A Medicine Wheel does not at all have to be made of stones. The Red Indians had to use stones because they were kind of nomads and they did not have a lot of things that they could permanently have around them in a peaceful own place.

And... how can you meditate on the spirits if you are in a tent with ten kids? You will have to go out in nature! 
Other more “solid” people built tempels for this purpose, often with the little flame on the altar in the middle, as a little piece of God. The Red Indian could quickly and easily construct a small stone temple in any place, and sit with  his burning pipe in the middle of it, a Medicine Wheel. In this way he could build a sacred place without harming nature. Good idea.

I live in the same place for a long time so I can have a room with a wood stove, a burning candle or a PC. Even the electric stove feels like an attractive center point. 

I make my own "Medicine Wheel" wherever I settle down, even if it is just for a short time. It is my little power space where I have all my Medicine Objects around me. But it also means that I get more dependent on and attached to my place as it is kind of heavy and stationary.
My Sun in Gemini doesn't like to be stationary, but my Mars in Taurus loves it. So the cooperation is that Mars makes so many different objects that Gemini gets it´s variation anyway.

My immediate surrounding just has to be full of ideas and colors and it can be paintings, books, papers, a Buddha statue, stones, crystals, postcards with nice pictures, candles, a torch light, a Krishna picture, the BhagavadGita, the ephemeride, some dictionaries and so on… and so on…but I do not place out a lot of stones, even if I know that stones can "hold memory". 
It feels as if my things could also hold memory. I have put all my stones in boxes. I have too many.

My Mars in Taurus is with a steady pace constantly building this wheel or Power House or whatever it can be called. Or rather, Mars is having it's focus om making, creating, constructing and painting all those nice objects that should be there. Maybe not really for the purpose of ever using them. It is just so important to make them!
If I had been living in the Medieval Age I would have been making church windows, icons or the small paintings in religious texts, that they made in the monasteries. If I had been a farmer´s wife I would have concentrated on embroideries. Being the farmer I could have made decorative paintings on walls and furniture. And so on. 

Mars in Taurus could, for another person, be some other way of creating something beautiful at a steady pace, variations depend on time, space and situation, but also on the rest of the chart and the aspects to other planets.
The same astrological aspect has different outlets in different ages and places, of course, and that means that you cannot know exactly what the activity is only from looking at the chart and a certain planet. If I associate Mars in Taurus with "religion" and temples, it depends on something else in my chart. A 15 year old boy would maybe associate it with making his MC as good-looking as possible. Another woman would just decorate the whole house in the most beautiful way by constantly putting up new curtains and nice flowers and then making the most delicious food, served on nicely decorated plates with the best wine. 
I could be in that way also, well.... almost... but... I think I would be more interested in buying, painting, collecting or even washing the beautiful plates than actually making the food. 
I think that my Mars does not like to see his creation being eaten up and in this way destroyed. His whole job just transformed into a heap of dishes!
That reminds me of the Tibetan sand paintings. So extremely beautiful and then just gone with the wind. 
Mars in Taurus is not so spiritual. The bull cannot see anything that is more than two meters above the ground. To him it no longer exists if it gets higher up. 

Mars cannot really understand that I now have so many things that it is enough. It is his job to make them and without job his life is meaningless. He has to continue, but he is reluctantly accepting that something can be produced also in/with the computer. 

My Mars tells me that I can use the PC to make up ideas for future objects that we can make! That is his main idea about the PC (in the same way as IKEA is building a kitchen in a PC before they give you the heap of boards.) Mars means that the computer is OK as it can serve the purpose of MAKING MORE THINGS!

But, there is no place for all those things, I say. 
Oh, it is not a problem, Mars answers. We just have to make small things! Tiny things! Postcards! Hundreds of small things, like the grass on the meadow! Flowers! 

Mars also says: Do not throw away anything! The day will come when you can use it to make something of it! 
If I find an old wooden box I get happy and I take it home and I paint it. But now I cannot bring home much more as there is no place for it.

Digital pictures and writings on the net do not cause my entire home to be filled with things. And Mars seems to accept it. 

My Mars in Taurus accepts the building and constructing of anything that can be seen, anything that looks like a physical object. And a digital picture does.
A text without a picture would be to tell Mars to give up life as he has not been involved in making something visible.

The Taurus, the bull, likes to focus on everything that is on the ground, like grass and... FLOWERS! I like to paint flowers!
Second House corresponds to Taurus, which is ruled by Venus, the goddess of pleasure, love and beauty.

I don´t like to be observed when I am creating something, because then I cannot focus. The observer might be a wolf or a hunter!
(I don´t know if that joke is also reality).

Dreaming of green meadows.
But not to run around on them.
No, just calmly standing there,
silently chewing on flowers.

And what was “shamanic” about that?
Well, it is the inner way, to learn about reality by observing what is here and now and what is really going on inside by associating to concepts in the forms of ideas, animals, gods or spirits or whatever we prefer to call our inner "energies". 
It sounds fun to be able to make magical things by being capable of “changing the energies” but how can you do anything with something that you do not even know about?
Astrology is just a tool to learn to see the inner energies and to sort out what is what. “Native people” make up wheels of animals for the same purpose. 

If I had been a Red Indian I would have been sitting in the teepe making flowery embroideries with pearls, but maybe also constructing or painting something else. I would not have been the shaman!!! But I could make the bag that he is carrying his things in.
If Mars in Taurus has to serve some higher purpose he will just decide that his duty is to put pleasure into it, like for example beauty. He will not be the teacher/preacher/leader. He is too physical and feminine for that. 

I am not flattered by my discoveries about that slow, steady and boring earthbound Taurus Mars. But I see that my Sun is feeding him with windy ideas to make him less boring.
Mars is building me a prison, but it is a nice place and I feel at home here in my self-made flower pot.

Mars in Taurus is a way of being and the Red Indians probably also call it something.

Gods, stars and spirits.



Shamanism has become a popular healing method among many other and people also invent new variations with new names all the time and most of them are said to contain the new secret formula or the old hidden secret and each one is also unique in some way as every inventor is the carrier of the “hidden key” that can solve all your problems.

In the 70s young people (hippies) were spontaneously interested in all these ancient, mystic ways of developing the soul. For the first time anyone could go out to a shop and buy an astrology book.

In the 80s shamanism entered the public stage, in the 90s electro-sensitivity became known and in the 2000s the mobile phones and Internet took over the world.

Here we are with all these concepts and they all tell us that biological systems are sensitive to electromagnetic fields and frequencies and we can also see that subtle signals can travel a long distance. We know about the satellites and their transfers of signals all around the globe.

If the circumstances are the right ones information can even be instantly affecting something else in another place, beyond time and space, and we sometimes call it clairvoyance. We have astral travel, soul travel, remote viewing etc.

The astrologers know how much we can be influenced by the positions of the planets which make changes in our electromagnetic environment when they float araound. Some frequencies get stronger and some get weaker and they constantly move and this is something that different people can sense in different ways, without knowing what they sense or react to.
An easy example is that people can get problems with sleep during full moon.

People who study the sun, the sun-spots and the solar winds know that we can be much affected by those winds when they reach Earth. Some get tired and some get restless and cannot sleep.

Electro-sensitive people have developed a strong reaction to certain frequencies that they need to stay away from in order to be able to stand on their feet. The presence of a certain electrical device, such as for example a mobile phone, can put them to bed.

Doctors know that migraine can start from almost any kind of trigger, like for example just the sight of a certain kind of light or zig-zag pattern.

We know how strongly we can be influenced by a thought, a word, a melody or the sight of something, that triggers a reaction. We are electromagnetic beings that react on signals and frequencies and they get stored in our subconscious memory.
The sight of something is just a reaction to light and it´s frequencies.

Our whole education is about teaching the subconscious mind to react in certain ways to certain triggers. It reacts to what we have consciously put into it but it also reacts to a lot of other signals and impressions that we are not consciously aware of.

Many of those signals are so weak that we cannot see them or sense them in any other way, we just feel a change of mood or energy.

If you react to a picture of a red heart or a flower you know what you react to, but if you react to a frequency which is in the air you do not know it. It is not possible to consciously sense where it comes from.
But it is possible to learn to recognize the reaction and to find out what it is about, but that requires training.

You must learn exactly how it feels and also to distinguish it from other inner sensations. Next step is to identify it: when does it show up and why?

Is it a special person that I react to, a special place or situation or is it maybe the presence of something? Or is it my own fantasy that creates it? Or just the thought about something? It is possible to find out but it is not so easy.

If you know what you react to you might now get the possibility to use it to influence your mood and in this way you have now invented a Medicine Tool that you can use to tap into this moode.

But it is not magical before you have learned to use it.

It seems as such an object can also store this memory in a way that other people can feel it or react to it. Maybe they “see something” or get an emotion when they touch it.

The shaman has learned to identify these reactions so he can tap into a chosen “energy” or vibrational pattern and keep other “energies” outside of the circle.
He has in this way learned to trace the energies and see where they come from and he can also step into that source and change it.

Astrologers have also learned to recognize different “energies”, moods, instincts and feelings and they have studied their connections to the movements of the planets, which in turn are the movements and changings in the electromagnetic field of the solar system.

We can see our solar system as a big being where the Sun is the central heart. The movements of the planets correspond to the movements of our own electromagnetic sphere around the heart, which we call intuition, thinking or emotion or whatever.

A normal thought is directly felt in the heart so the heart can tell about the quality of it and tell you if you should follow that thought or not. But it also has to do with your inner programming as you have taught your mind to react in a certain way. We react on hidden memories, education and habits.

The electrosensitive people are often not more electrosensitive than many other people who feel sick in a strange way. They have just understood something that others do not know about.
They are reacting to certain electrical man-made things (like mobile phones) and they have learned to identify the causes of their reactions.

They do not react to electricity - they react to the frequencies that are hidden in these signals. That means that an “electrosensitive” person can react to this frequency also when there is no electric current at all, no flux and no voltage.

A bottle of water where this frequency is "put in" is enough to create a reaction. But the bottle is not sending it´s signals all over the country! You have to be close to the bottle.

Electricity is just energy that is used to make the frequencies travel away.

Water can hold memory and in ancient times they could use a stone instead of a bottle as a stone also contains water.

The Holy Grail is also referred to as the stone from Heaven or Lapis Exillis, which actually just means “the stone from them”. “They” could have been any people, maybe from an other planet. The stone is the Grail, that contains the fluid that carries the secret information, often referred to as blood from Jesus.
Maybe this Jesus-story is just a kind of magic to change the message of the stone that had been programmed by “them”.

All those energies, vibrations or frequencies, that are influencing us in so subtle ways that it requires a training to recognize them, are, of course, known by certain people and unknown to the rest of the population who are left to “believe” or “not believe” in their existence.

So we have always had different kinds of people, as for example those who want to understand more about these energies to get wiser, like the astrologers.
We have the monks who undergo a long training to master the perfect techniques to get into contact with the highest levels.
We have the shamans who learn to manipulate the energies for various reasons (all of them are not always healers).

We have a positive mainstream who believes in it and goes to church, “belongs to Jesus” or follows some flowery mainstream behaviour with workshops and mantras and so on.

And we have a negative mainstream who says that “it does not exist” and they do what they can to attack this “superstition”.

These “energies” cannot be called “energies” because “energy” is said to be something neutral. Just try to use the expression “nice energies” when you talk to a person from the Technical Highschool!

The Hippies used the word “vibrations” which I think is quite good.

People all over the world have always been talking about these “vibrations” and the messages (inputs, reactions, feelings, knowledge) that we can get from them.

These “vibrations” have, of course, during a long time had hundreds of thousands of names as we have thousands of languages, not to talk about all the local dialects.

200 years ago the Red Indians did not have to translate the names of their spirits into English and the old Hebrews did not translate their talkings into Latin.

With translations big problems come. The person who translates has to have full knowledge of two languages and also in two different ways of thinking. The next problem is that two languages might not always contain the same words, so it is not possible to “just translate”. You might have to re-write it in another way and three centuries later another scholar (who wants to make a career) changes the translation. Then the scholars start quarreling about the meaning of it and they write about their opinions and finally the original meaning is lost.
Already in the years of 200 - 400 they had started to quarrel about the translations of the Christian texts.

Imagine an anthropologist who goes away to another culture to find out about their life.
Already in advance he might have decided that he wants to know more about a “belief”-system and not about their “reality”. Then he gets told about the different wawayoyas, mummijajas, bomombas and ninijas. What to do? The translator does not know how to translate them into English. 

They have to be called something in English and it has to be a word that already exists in English.

The anthropologists have not chosen the words energies, vibrations, feelings, reactions or frequencies. All of that kind has been called spirits or gods. I wonder how many translators who know the difference between a god and a spirit.
Is planet Mars a god, a spirit or a body with an electromagnetic charge? We can say it in any way.

And then we, intellectual Westerners, say that “spirits do not exist” (as we cannot see them).
So how is it possible that we can say that love, anger, joy, surprise, beauty and happiness exist? We cannot see them either!!! Not even a Jesus-freak would claim that surprise is an evil god” just because it is named surprise instead of Jesus.Uranus can be said to be the god of surprise as Venus is the goddess of beauty.

We can feel them and experience them in the same way as the native, tribal people did. We call them emotions and they called them words that got translated with gods and spirits.

The difference between us and the old people is that they presented vivid pictures of the experiences that we just call “chemicals in the brain”. We have the same experiences but we have different models to explain it.

Anger was Mars, thinking was Mercury, wisdom was Jupiter and so on and the whole of that formed a complex psychology that might have been much better than today´s fixing every emotion with pills that block or enhance the neural transmittor substances.

The Plain Indians could not keep track of the motions of the planets in such a precise way, but they could easily associate different feelings and behaviours with the animals.

Apart from communicating directly with a real animal that can sense what you are up to, the talking with God, gods, spirits, power animals and ancestors is most probably something that we in our society could refer to as quantum effects in for example the sense of quantum entanglement.
If you are “one with” something you are in contact with it beyond time and space and information can “go” faster than light, as they say. 
I would suggest that it does not “go”. Probably the two parts are separated in this world but in another dimension they are at the same "place".

Just look at two computers which simultaneously pick up the same information from another “world of frequencies” that we cannot see with our eyes.
Internet is a giant man-made god and the computer expert is the modern shaman that can interfere with the programming that "normal people" do not understand.

Excessive use of computers and mobile devices can create the same problems that excessive drumming, yoga, mantra or "religion" can create. The nervous system can get overloaded and it also seems that it can start the kundalini arousal.
Wise people all over the world always knew that one has to be careful with dealing with the gods and spirits. Now we call them frequencies but the story is the same.

I just wonder if there are any Jesus-freaks who call Internet "the false god". I don't know.

Today I had Mars opp. Mercury





Well, actually... to be precise it was on Saturday - Sunday that Mars was exactly in opposition to my Mercury. But today on Monday it was “still there” so I thought that as nothing had yet happened it could happen today as it was the last chance for Mars to dance on the stage.

What Robert Hand says about Mars opp. Mercury is that there is a danger that you get involved with violent mental conflicts. He also says that you should be careful of any situation that has a potential for accidents, especially traveling.
“Drive carefully and avoid speeding. Also watch carefully at intersections for other people driving in a dangerous manner.”

Mercury rules thinking and traveling and Mars can be violence and Opposition is confrontation. Just make 1+2+3 = boom!

Today I had to drive the car to the mechanic in the morning because there were things, like the brakes, that had to be fixed for the obligatory vehicle inspection.

I feel quite lucky because now we have a new inspection place here and it is just 20 meters from ”my” old garage where the mechanics can repair it. To all of this it is just five minutes´ drive from my home.

If something should be really wrong with the car (you can get prohibited from even driving the car back home!) I can now just walk to the mechanic and tell him. And then I can even walk home. Fantastic! My life is filled with luxury!

When I drove to the place I was thinking about the fact that I had Mars in opposition to my Sun and Mercury and it could very well indicate an accident, because Mars is the planet of high energy, so it is about activity, aggression and war. Mars is also about the red color so it can mean an accident with the red blood floating. Mars is also a symbol of iron, so the typical would be a fight (or accident) where iron (or steel) is involved. It could be an iron axe or a sharp sword or knife.

The combination of knife and blood is not only a fight because it can also be an operation. The difference is just the intent that is behind the cutting.

When I came to the mechanic I had not crashed the car and I did not even feel aggressive and I could feel that I would not end up in a fight with anyone. I was just sleepy.

To have something to do I took a walk with my little camera and I took pictures of everything, which mainly was a lot of rusty cars and all kinds of rusty pieces.

Then I sat down on a cold and wet carriage and felt puzzled. Why was there no accident and not even anyone to quarrel with?
I thought: ”Astrology just doesn't work and this is the proof! Sorry, Mona, we cannot have any Astropage because this doesn´t work!" 

I gave up on thinking about it and I just felt sleepy and hungry and it was cold.

Then it occurred to me that for an hour I had been taking photos of iron! All those old cars and rusty wheels and iron beams.... I was at a place that was dominated by iron, the metal of Mars!

I was taking photos of iron and it could very well be called a confrontation and also a mirror of the astrological chart where Mars (iron) was in 180 degrees from my Sun (I). In reality I was in 180 degrees from the iron pieces in front of me, if it was seen on a line with the camera in the middle.

I was focusing on the iron in the same way as a fighter has his focus on his opponent. It was just a different intent behind it.

This shows us that intent is beyond the world of the gods.

There were now two minor accidents, almost to small to call accidents, but they are still reflections of Mars.

One was that I tried to close the car door while the fingers of my other hand were still on the outside. Aow!!! It hurt, but not so much.

The second accident was that the controller (at the control station) pulled off the hand-brake wire without telling me about it. He just smiled happily at me and said that everything was OK.

The mechanic then said that the wire had been so thin that it was not very strange that it broke.

So we can say that Mars got manifested mainly on the mental level and not so much on the physical level. We can say that it was Mars + Wind and not so much Mars + Earth.

Confrontation?
Well, having a control can be called a confrontation with a potential opponent.

Car accident?
I squeezed my hand in the car-door.
A guy pulled off my car´s hand-brake wire!

Operation? Well...
The car got operated by the mechanics.
When I came home I met the neighbour at the parking place and she told me that she is going to make an operation and they will take away her right leg so she talked about that for a while.

Color red?
I made a selfie among the cars and when I looked at the photo I saw my red jacket (which I had not thought about).

If Mars can manifest through Wind and Earth, I suppose it can also manifest through Fire and Water.
You can make a Medicine Wheel of Mars and see what happens. Maybe in the East there will just be something that burns down, maybe a wild-fire or you will just be sitting by a nice camp-fire or maybe you will get a kick and start believing in Jesus.
In the South your feelings might become like a kettle with boiling water so that your mind gets totally foggy from the steam.

The best thing is not to guess in advance what it might be – the best thing is to observe reality and find out about it from experience.

So now I am not in bed after an accident, but I have a strong headache so maybe I will go to bed anyway, after some head-ache pills. Just have to finish this text.
Now is time-off and Mars is going away from that spot.

Dear WakanTanka...



"Dear God, you made many, many poor people.
I realize, of course, that it's no shame to be poor.
But it's no great honor either!
So, what would have been so terrible
if I had a small fortune?"

Religions, shamanism and other belief systems, that deal with the healing and development of human mind and soul together with a belief in other dimensions and their inhabitants (be it gods, angels, ghosts, ancestors or whatever) are variations of “the same thing” in the same way as all our languages are variations of our ability to talk with each other.

In the old religions and in shamanism we can see the same patterns and one is the offerings to the spirits. There are always some kind of offering on the altar and in BhagavadGita Krishna says that he will accept even just a little flower.

On Batty´s workshops in shamanism people once had to go out in the forest and make a contact with a little nature spirit of some kind. On the following lesson Batty told us that we had to bring the little spirit with us back home. And, then we would have to feed it also with offerings in the form of some kind of nice little pieces of food, candies, chocolate or so.

I talked about it with a friend who had “brought a spirit home” and she said that she did not intend to feed her little spirit, because, as she said, if it was an invisible spirit that was flying around it could just by itself fly down to the shop and take any kind of food that it liked.

Once I was with a friend in the forest outside of Stockholm. We had parked our car by the gravel road and we were just walking around in the forest. We were on a small opening, but when I had walked away from it (but not so much) and intended to turn around and go back to it I could not see it. It was as if it had disappeared.
We were lost and none of us knew the way back to the car and we did not even know in which direction we should walk. We searched but found nothing.

Then I got the idea that maybe we could get help from the little spirits… because that was what Batty had tought us! Well, I thought, without an offering to the spirit it would not be there.
I did not understand that, but we were lost and had to try anything.

I had found a very beautiful red mushroom, an amanita with white dots. and I offered it to a big stump that looked as if it could be “the home of somebody” and I asked for help.
I thought that if Krishna would accept a flower why could not a stump accept a mushroom?

But nothing happened! Absolutely nothing!

I was puzzled. Then a thought came to my mind and it said that this mushroom was not an offering - in fact it was something that I had taken from the forest. It was something that I had stolen from the world that belonged to the eventual spirit of the stump, so in reality it was the opposite of an offering. Whoops!

Batty had always said that tobacco was a good offering. OK... I had a package of tobacco in my pocket and I took some of it and I put it on the stump and I asked for the direction to the car.
Pof!
Immediately I knew the direction and I could run through a lot of bushes directly towards the car.
Well…???

A woman, who lived in the forest, more than 100 years ago, told about a strange happening: She had asked the spirits for help with something. It worked, but the next morning her house was dirty. She cleaned everything, but the next morning it was dirty again. And so on, day after day.
Then it dawned upon her that she had not given anything back to this spirit so now she did that and then the problem was not there any more.
Well…???

I don´t know, but the right kind of offering seems to be the key to everything in both religion and shamanism all over the world.

What is it about? Are the spirits really so greedy and needy that we have to give them food and a lot of things? Do they eat the food??? What do they do with the things that they have got? How can they need or even eat any food if they are just made up from foggy veils?

In the Hare Krishna Temple they offer all their food to Krishna and then they eat up the food themselves!
All of this seems quite crazy!
The modern, rational, Western mind cannot easily grasp this idea and I cannot either. But I try to.

As Batty has said, the real things do not take place in this world but in the Nagual, in another dimension. On that level there is an energy exchange and if you give the offering with a “giving mind” your energy body starts giving out an “altruistic energy” and then the same kind of energy has to flow back to you.

You and the spirit are living in two different dimensions, so to the spirit you are also a spirit?

Just for the fun of it and maybe to get a glimpse of another way of thinking, which could explain more, I make a little mental jump here.

Imagine the world of that entity that you call “nature spirit”.

This entity is there fully visible and looks like someone in a fairy tale book illustration. But in that world this world of ours is not visible! To them you are just a shadow flying around, to the people in that world you are a foggy spirit. But they can sense your presence and in a way also maybe identify you and see your intent. This intent of yours is their identification of you.
If they focus on you or if you focus on them you might even be capable of seeing each other. If you make a ceremony for this purpose the whole thing will be enhanced. It is about frequencies and you will get into contact with a spirit that has the same intentional frequency that you have. You get what you are.

Now comes the thing! Do these entities consider you to be a good spirit, that gives them something, or will they see you as an evil spirit who just wants to get something from them. Evil is just the same as greedy or “taking”.

So… if you now make an offering to them, because you want to get something back from them, I would call it a trick! Not very honest!

You are not really a good spirit to them- you are just making a deal in the same way as we do in the shops. But, of course, as in the shop, it is better to pay than to steal.
Offerings are often used as tricks to get something back in our normal world.

I believe that the original idea of these offerings was to turn your whole being into an altruistic body on all levels, a spirit that was good to all creation all the time, and not just making business using offerings as spiritual money.

A long time ago original spirituality turned around into greed and that is what the wise gurus are talking about.

The more we are greedy the more we get into contact with the greedy spirits and the world sinks down into misery when they get the chance to rule.

But… we have created a society where you have to be kind of greedy to survive. We have to work for money and the only solution to that is that we work out of interest in the job and not in the money. But how many can do that? The interesting job that you love might not at all give you any money. You might not even get that job.

So… New Age has found the solution! Just make up your own religion and then you can sell it to all the lost people. You will be a good Jesus and you will also get rich! Wow! It really sounds like the perfect way!

Well… I think it all depends upon your intent, if it is good or not, if it is giving or greedy. The people who are mainly interested in spirituality and have a genuine interest in shamanism today get blended with those, who are mainly interested in getting famous and making money.
It can be difficult to know who is what and often you will have to pay for it before you know.

As soon as an interest becomes a big trend greedy people jump up on the stage and take over. That is also what the church did when it turned religion into a big block that the priests could use to control people.
Today the big controllers use the money system, the banks.

Intent is your motivation and your energy in your heart and mind.

Mercury is not just commercial - it is about thinking and communicating in general and it can be used for commerce but also for seeking knowledge, not to get illuminated but to distinguish good from bad and this from that and see connections and to sort out things.

Jupiter is often said to be the "star of luck" and it is also the star of wisdom. It is a planet that opens your inner window and expands your perception of the world and it can give you luck in any area of life. A Jupiter transit can mean a prosperous windfall.

In India Jupiter is Brihaspati, the guru and teacher of the gods. Jupiter is the most auspicious, helpful, generous and beneficent of the planets and he rules over the two sidereal signs of Sagittarius and Pisces and presides over Guruwar or Brihaspatiwar (Thursday).
Mercury is said to be his enemy in the same way as we often mean that too much intellectual thinking becomes a block to higher knowledge.
If you make a Medicine Wheel of the Ancestors his place is in the north-east.


So it is interesting that Jupiter, the planet of luck and knowledge, in India is considered to be an enemy of Mercury, the planet of thinking, that in Rome was the planet of commercialism. 

In an old monastery it could be forbidden to even touch money.

Where is my Commercial Star?



Mercury is the Roman god of financial gain, commerce, eloquence (and thus poetry), messages/communication (including divination), travelers, boundaries, luck, trickery and thieves; he is also the guide of souls to the underworld. He was considered the son of Maia and Jupiter in Roman mythology. His name is possibly related to the Latin word merx ("merchandise"; compare merchant,commerce, etc.), mercari (to trade), and merces (wages).
Quotation from Wikipedia

In astrology Mercury is about mind and communication. It is about languages, thinking, writing and talking. It is also about moving around.

In the old Roman world a person who was good in talking was, of course, also clever at the market where all the daily talking between many people took place .
Here the quick-minded Mercury-person was clever and could get more money.
The word for thinking, that is used in the Latin lanuages is today penso (It. pensare, French penser, Spa. pensar) which actually means “to balance” in the sense of using the beam scales that they used at the market place.

Today people can also get money from talking (and writing), of course, the whole PR-business is the art of communicating something and just look at the politicians.
Whatever you want to sell you will have to communicate it to other people.
Or you will have to be discovered by someone else who is capable of making that communication for you. 



We have come to an era when spirituality, and also shamanism, is more and more ruled by commercialism and in every corner of the old religions we seek the hidden key that can give us money, wealth, beauty, power, fame or some other quick´n easy fix.

In ancient astrology there is no lucky money-star, because in the good old cradle of astrology the astrologers were seeking wisdom and knowledge about our human nature and not money. So money has not always been connected with “something good”. In old India money-making was a kind of “left-over” for those who were not capable of getting knowledge. Those poor, stupid guys had to make business instead of doing something that required a strong mind.

In the Roman world the thinking person got money, but in the old India the thinking person got wisdom.

We have the “stars” of beauty, love, action, surprise, block, hinder, opening, romanticism, mind etc. and they can also be called “gods” because they are parts of our psyche that the astrological chart reflects.
But there is no old shining Money God in the chart.

We would have to search for the key that gives or indicates some other quality that could indicate success, satisfaction or happiness or, in the beginning, at least a better understanding of your mind and your abilities and which area of life that suits you best. But then you will have to work on it and become skilled and finally you have to show it to the world, with the help of Mercury.

Now, here all the planets can be of importance. Maybe you go out with your personal, original skills over and over again, but nothing happens. And then… suddenly, the opening comes. So we can search for the planets that can be connected with “openings”, with energy, with “being seen”, with making an effort etc. but not with money. Money comes later as a result of all those other talents and efforts.

We can look at Paul Potts, who was a salesman in a store when he suddenly became a famous artist. For other people it was suddenly, but for him it was just the climax of a long training and focus on an inner talent that he was born with.

Only one lucky transit by a lucky planet does not make much. There has to be a combination of a lot of factors.

In this show he actually stepped into a big Communication Industry and it seems like he did a tremendous effort at exactly the right time.

Astrologisidan




Nu har Mona och jag öppnat Astrologisidan på Facebook och den är en sluten grupp, som man får ansöka om att bli medlem i.




lördag 11 oktober 2014

Astrologisidan



I går kväll pratade vi i telefon, Mona och jag, och efter någon timmes filosoferande hit och dit så tog tankarna ett eget hopp in i en ny idé, nämligen att vi kunde skapa en astrologigrupp på facebook. 

Det finns redan en hel del om astrologi på nätet, men mycket är ju på engelska och vi tyckte att det borde finnas litet mer på svenska. Det beror bland annat på att astrologin svänger sig med en massa konstiga begrepp, som folk i allmänhet inte känner till, och om det då även är på engelska så kan det vara svårt att förstå.

När vi hade slutat att prata så skrev jag (till denna nya fb-sida) en liten inledningstext, som jag mejlade till Mona.

Jag tänkte att hon skulle titta på den och sedan kunde vi diskutera saken, men när jag vaknade nästa morgon så hade hon redan startat sidan.  Whoops! Men...OK  Gjort är gjort!

Om man är intresserad av astrologi så tolkar man inte bara planeternas lägen vid en persons födelse. Nej, man tolkar även andra händelser och speciellt då planeternas lägen i det ögonblick som något startar. Det är ju också en slags födelse.

Det ska inte misstolkas i stil med att man ”kollar allt” för att det är så vansinnigt viktigt att noga veta vad det är för energi överallt. Men man kan göra det ”på kul”.
Och man kan faktiskt lära sig något av det också eftersom där vanligen kan finnas punkter som stämmer bra.

Många tror att astrologi är något som man tror på (eller inte tror på), men astrologi är egentligen något, som man undersöker och på så vis lär man sig mer och mer tills man kan se de samband, som har betydelse.

Mona sände ett mejl till mig kl. 00:10 med texten ”Astrologisidan skapad” Jag tar då för givet att hon hade skapat den strax innan och jag gjorde därför ett horoskop för kl. 00:00.

Det visade sig att Gruppen fick sin AC på hennes Sol och Merkurius.
(Jag skriver astrologiska begrepp med stor bokstav för att skilja dem från ordens vanliga betydelser).

AC betyder Ascendenten och det är horisontlinjen där planeterna, Solen och Månen går upp. Den punkt i zodiaken där AC befinner sig när man föds har betydelse för hur man visar sig för omvärlden och hur man uppfattas av andra. Den råkade här hamna i Lejonet och att den är på samma ställe som Monas Merkurius kan ju vara bra för henne eftersom Merkurius är den planet som styr snabba tankar, skriverier, diskussioner, kommunikation och förmedling. Att den är vid hennes sol gör att gruppens framtoning bör kunna bli något, som hon kan identifiera sig med.

Gruppen fick Solen i Vågen och det är ju bra för husfridens skull. Vågen gillar att ha balanserade diskussioner och vill gärna undvika konflikter och gräl. Det betyder att vi med gott samvete kan blockera den som bara vill bråka eller vara datatroll. Så gör Vågen, han bara stänger dörren så att det blir lugn och ro. Vågen styrs av Venus och vill gärna ha en vacker miljö.

Även Venus ligger här och förstärker den saken. Det är kärlekens och skönhetens planet så det kanske inte precis främjar några eldiga konfrontationer
Vågen gillar harmoni och behaglig skönhet så mycket att han ofta kan undvika att säga vad han egentligen tycker.


Vi får väl se om här finns något annat, som då i stället kan ge litet mera stuns i diskussionerna så att de inte blir för tråkiga.

Jodå, kanske det. Här ligger Mars i Skytten, som är ett väldigt filosofiskt tecken, som styrs av Jupiter och det betyder att den tändande gnistan kan uppstå inom området ”filosofi, religion, sanning, högre tänkande”, som är Skyttens specialitet. 

Gruppen har fått Pluto i Hus 6 och det är bra för att ”arbeta på djupet”. Hus 6 är det område, som betyder arbete och sjukdom (eftersom även sjukdom kan ses som ett arbete) och Pluto betyder ”gå på djupet”. Pluto har att göra med det undermedvetna varifrån ”något dolt” kan välla fram som lava.

Och det är ju också så att astrologi är just ett arbete med att lära sig att känna igen olika bitar av sig själv och vad man har inom sig, i det fördolda.

Uranus opposition Venus betyder att det är svårt att skapa fasta relationer, men det ska väl en fb-grupp heller inte göra. Ja, såvida sidan inte är en kontaktannons för äktenskap, men det är ju denna inte.
Aspekten säger i stället att man lätt blir intresserad av personer, som har ovanliga eller till och med litet halvtokiga idéer. Relationer kan bli OK om man bara ser till att man hittar dem, som liknar en själv. Men denna sida ska ju också vara öppen för just dem, som är intresserade av astrologi. Sedan kan de gärna få vara litet half crazy.


Neptunus i Hus 8 i Fiskarna. Perfekt!

Neptunus kan kallas flummarnas planet, men det beror på att den är svår att handskas med på rätt sätt. Den löser upp ens ego, men också känslan för verkligheten så den kan göra att man ”släpper verkligheten här” för att i stället glida in i en annan, högre och vackrare verklighet, som man hellre vill tro på.
Den kan få dig att känna dig helt borttappad och förvirrad för att du har förlorat alla strukturer och varken vet hit eller dit, men dess inflytande kan även få dig att uppleva att du är ”ett med kosmos”.

I Fiskarnas tecken är Neptunus starkare eftersom den är i sitt eget tecken. (Här är den länge – inte bara i dag.)

I Hus 8 är den bara en gång varje dygn så det kan vara intressantare. Den aspekten är alltså mer beroende av den exakta födelsetiden än vad många andra är. 
Det betyder att man kan se hur mystiska krafter arbetar i vardagliga händelser, som andra bara ser ytan av. 
Jaja, men det är ju också meningen att gruppen ska syssla med just detta. Det är det som astrologi handlar om, sådant som många inte kan se.

Men när en person säger ”det där tror jag inte på” så är det hans Neptunus som är i farten eftersom det är den planet som har att göra just med att tro eller inte tro på något.
Han har antagligen en svag eller blockerad Neptunus i sitt horoskop.

Men han kan ha en blockerad Merkurius också som gör att han inte kan sätta sig in i en tankegång, som han inte är van vid, eller som går en bit utanför det vardagliga och det, som han tror är bevisat.
Eller månen, att man är känslomässigt rädd för att inte vara som alla andra.


En person, som har Neptunus i Hus 8 kan få en del konstiga fantasier, som han tror på och blir rädd för. Här skulle det kunna vara bra att lära sig astrologi för att litet mera konkret kunna se vilka krafter som verkar så att man kan lära sig vad som är vad för att inte bara pladask och medvetslöst falla offer för vilka idéer som helst.

Det vill den här gruppen gärna syssla med: information, som gör att man kan sortera och bättre förstå sitt inre, sina tankar, fantasier och upplevelser.

Uranus i Hus 10. Det ger en viss originalitet och rastlöshet och ett behov av frihet.
”This placement may favor work in a technical or scientific field or in astrology.” Robert Hand

Merkurius i Hus 4 betyder att man drar sig tillbaka (i hemmet) för att tänka och reflektera och det favoriserar diskussioner om inre känslor och om det förflutna så att man kan komma underfund med hur man ska koppla dagens situation till sina minnen. Det kan vara minnen som man inte ens är medveten om och då kan astrologin också vara till hjälp här genom att visa var blockeringar kan finnas.

Att dra sig tillbaka i hemmet för att tänka på sådant är ju precis vad man gör i en sådan här grupp. Man sitter ju hemma vid datorn och skriver om just detta, eller kanske bara läser om det och tänker på det.

Hus 4 motsvarar Kräftan, som styrs av Månen, som har att göra med känslor som vandrar hit och dit utan att man egentligen förstår varför.

Månens metall är silver och både månen och silver är våra största reflektorer. Månen reflekterar solens ljus på natten och silver har använts i speglar. Det sägs också att silver kan användas som en skyddande sköld mot det negativa och mot ”det onda”.

Tidigare kunde man använda silver mot vampyrer och man kunde även lägga ett silvermynt i mjölken för att den inte skulle bli dålig när den stod framme eftersom silver har antibakteriella egenskaper.

Gruppen har alltså ett horoskop, som ger dess tankar och resonemang,  dess Merkurius, ett visst inflytande från Kräftan (Månen) eftersom den ligger i Hus 4 (Kräftans Hus), precis på gränsen mellan harmoni (Vågen) och "att gå på djupet" (Skorpionen).

Så jag föreslår att vi låter Gudinnan Silver vara gruppens skyddsande. Det blir väl Artemis då, som är Månens gudinna. Den romerska motsvarigheten är skogsgudinnan Diana.

Artemis var jaktens gudinna. Hon var även modern till allt levande, människor och djur. Hon avbildades som en höggravid kvinna men hon var inte bara moder, hon var också hämndlysten och blodtörstig.

Artemis slår hårt vakt om sin kyskhet, och en av sagorna om henne är när Orion försöker våldta henne. Då frammanar hon skorpioner som sticker ihjäl Orion och hans hund. Orion far då upp till himmelen tillsammans med sin hund och blir en stjärnbild. Hunden blir hundstjärnan, Sirius.

Diana är i romersk mytologi de vilda djurens och jaktens gudinna. Det är så gott som ingen skillnad mellan henne och grekernas Artemis. Hon avbildas i romersk konst som jägare med båge och en jakthund eller hjort som följeslagare. Pil och båge symboliserar ljuset, som strålar från månen.

Hennes namn liknar romarnas ord för klar himmel och dagsljus (dies)

Månen väcker till liv känslor, som legat i det undermedvetna, och dessa känslor kan vi uppfatta som en romantisk längtan, som väller fram i bröstet när månen lyser över skogen.
Den berättar om själens längtan och om det mystiska och om alla de okända väsen som kanske gömmer sig i de skarpa skuggorna bakom träden eller som halvgenomskinliga svävar och dansar i ängens månbelysta dimslöjor.

Till en vild och evig längtan föddes vi av mödrar bleka....

Merkurius i Hus 4 betyder också att man tycker om att vara mitt i en hög med böcker, papper och diverse verktyg, som ska göra att man på bästa sätt ska kunna utveckla sin tankeförmåga och sitt sinne. Det ger ett speciellt intresse för det förflutna och det gör också att man riktar sitt intresse inåt. Man blir introvert och försöker förstå sina egna känslor, som man då också gärna vill diskutera med andra. 
Ja, det kan man göra i gruppen. Det passar ju bra.

Månen var i Oxen och det låter väl inte alltför romantiskt. Det betyder att man gärna vill ha en trygg och säker miljö, att man är tålmodig utan att hetsa upp sig, samt att man kan vara rätt så hjälpsam, plus att man gillar det som är vackert.

Månen i Hus 11 gör att man vill samverka med vänner och ”många andra”. Huset styr grupper, till skillnad mot Hus 7, som har att göra med relationer med enstaka personer.

Hus 11 styrs av Vattumannen så här blir det då troligen vänner, som är mer än andra influerade av Vattumannen, dvs av Uranus, som styr detta tecken. Uranus är den typiska New Age-planeten eftersom den styr ”ett högre tänkande” och även IT-kommunikation. Den är ”elektrisk” och dess mest framträdande egenskap är att man inte har en aning om vad som ska hända. Det går inte att förstå i förväg eftersom det kommer som en överraskning. Helt plötsligt så bara smäller det till med en ny idé. Inspirationens gnista! Eller det händer plötsligt något konstigt, som man inte alls hade förväntat sig. Uranus utmanar alla rigida strukturer och det var precis vad alla hippies gjorde i början av 70-talet när de sjöng: This is the Age of Aquarius...”

Astrologin jobbar med att ta fram och analysera det som vi har i vårt inre och med att ge goda råd om hur man ska handskas med olika känslor.
Det är alltså inte någon spådomskonst för att förutsäga vad som ska hända.


Shamanismen jobbar med exakt samma sak, men har sedan också speciella metoder för att gå in i det undermedvetna, både det personliga och det kollektiva, som exempelvis att genom en trumresa göra en själsresa för att gå in i de osynliga strukturer, som binder oss vid karmas hjul och lägger ut samma snubbeltråd om och om igen.

Man kan säga att en astrolog utan trumma blir bara en ovanligt bra psykolog och rådgivare, medan en shaman utan astrologikarta nog kan fungera bra ändå, men han skulle kunna ha stor nytta av en sådan karta eftersom den berättar om den dolda verkligheten på samma sätt som ett komplicerat medicinhjul skulle göra.

Man kan gott säga att en astrologisk karta är ett medicinhjul, även om det inte ser exakt likadant ut som det vi är vana vid att se på indianbilder på YouTube.

Att starta den här gruppen var absolut inte planerat! Idén kom plötsligt och sedan gick det litet väl fort. 

Egentligen var det två dagar tidigare, som jag fick en impuls till att starta något nytt, men då fokuserade jag på att bli medlem i en konstförening.

När jag skulle anmäla mig så gjorde jag något fel så att hela den sidan förvandlades till konstig datatext över hela skärmen så att jag sedan inte ens kunde komma in på den hemsidan, som jag hade varit på.

Det tog mig 14 timmar att reda ut saken så att jag i alla fall kunde komma in på den sidan igen utan att vara helt blockerad.

Jag blev tvungen att lära mig att radera webbläsarens cacheminne, men jag var i fortsättningen ändå blockerad från att kunna anmäla mig till den sidan.
Deras dator ansåg att jag redan fanns där så jag kunde inte anmäla mig på nytt, men det gick heller inte att logga in eftersom allt då kraschade på nytt och jag måste radera cacheminne igen (vilket gör att jag även blir utloggad från andra program).

Efter två dagar var det bara att strunta i att försöka mera med den saken (jag ringde till den, som har sidan, men han visste inte heller vad som var fel).

I efterskott kom jag på att jag just då hade haft Mars kvadratur Jupiter och jag letade reda på vad Robert Hand skrivit om saken:


This can be a time of very successful and energetic activity, if you proceed with caudon, don't act recklessly, and keep close track of what you are doing. You will be tempted, however, to run off quickly, without taking all factors into consideration....

Jaja... stämmer precis på pricken!

Så ringde Mona och min kreativitetsenergi knuffades in på detta med astrologi i stället. Vi kom in på tanken att bilda en astrologigrupp och nästa morgon hade hon redan startat den nya fb-gruppen.
Jag var ju inte beredd på att hon skulle göra det såååå snabbt och kände mig som om jag inte riktigt hängde med i svängarna.

Det var ju konstföreningen som jag egentligen hade fokuserat på... men...OK...
