8F1.0 You might as well get used to it: YOU ARE A GLORIOUS NEW REALITY.

8F1.0 formerly Wednesday April 10

The Day of Mercury in the Week of Fire at what for some equals the reboot of Time Itself. Mercury's function in Atziluth is to actively communicate. To think. To know. To reason. Mercury teaches (by demonstration), the animation of Eidolons, the magick indwelling of icons by Spirit. Avoid any doctrine or religious movement that advocates a shameful wickedness with the alphabet For I say unto you: it would be easier for a honeypossum to sculpt a perfect likeness of Aleister Crowley out of marmalade and motor oil than it would be to escape the effects of this momentous new beginining. We have arrived. Welcome to the Future, to the Past, and the Eternal Now. Who you are today is of great import. Why? Because this is the first day of the first week of the first Lunar cycle of the Aeon of MA'AT. We here at Metaversal will be united firmly with our brothers and sisters in the Temple of MA'AT. Her connection with this lunar cycles Full Moon in Libra is not insignificant (for more on the Temple of MA'AT go to Metaversal Venus, the link is over there to the right in the Lightcraft directory). The Moon treats us to an early experience of sweet energy as it glues Sun, Mars, and Venus together again in a happy trio. This is the energy of love and connection, and it will infuse the entire lunar cycle to come, as this is also the New Moon (2:35 am/20°41' Aries) (5:35 am ET). This stretches out the joyous spring-y feeling of the Venus-Mars conjunction and gives a boost to our expression of these energies of love early on in their cycle, which lasts until February 2015. This is provides the opportunity for an auspicious start to any enterprise. Watch for changes to come! Beyond the turbulated curtain of vigilant torpor lies a realm where the living vision engines dream. The Moon is void of course from its conjunction with Venus at 9:25 am. When it enters Taurus at 8:22 pm, we can pick up steam again and carry on with our plans. In the chart cast for the United States setting the lunation in Washington DC, there’s a sense of lost dreams as the population picks up the search for new ones in light of the need for changes in the cultural value system. Many people are questioning the foundation they’ve built their life around. They feel betrayed by the “system” to which they have devoted much faith and effort, without an equivalent, or even adequate, return. This lunation is more about the people, their attitudes, and fate, than it is about the leaders. There is contentiousness in the air, found in the Sabian Symbol for the New Moon degree of 22 Aries, “A boxer is entering the ring.” This could be the start of a competition of might, where there is usually a winner and a loser. Looking deeper however, all contestants may both win and lose depending on the purpose and machinations behind the scenes. Look beneath the surface to find what’s really going on. A win-win could be created through an enlightened viewpoint. Also on today's list of amazing would be our favorite Band in the World, IAO Core's live Holi Day performance at Sibley Volcanic Preserve in the beautiful Oakland Hills.

Take physical exercise in Jupiter's Day, when he is reigning, and use Jovial things such as Lapis Lazuli, Brass, Cedarwood, blue and aery colours, wine, honey; and entertain thoughts and feelings which are particularly Jovial, that is, expansive, healthy, and with good humour... -

The Moon in Taurus makes mostly harmonious contacts today as it reaches the planets in the other yin/feminine signs—Neptune, Chiron, Saturn, and Pluto. It’s still a time of deep and serious thought, with Saturn and Pluto involved, but the Moon helps us see an enterprising way through and find joy in the moment. Tactically, we are the proverbial dodo feather stuck between the crocodile’s teeth.

All the little elfin figurines have been drugged. Crack them open and spread the dusty paste over your chosen chakras. Carry the puppy from sleep as you would a burning cottage from your dream. As the Taurus Moon greets an empty portion of sky, Pluto begins its apparent backward motion, turning Stationary Retrograde (SRx) at 11°35' Capricorn. This retrograde lasts until September 20 and ties in with events on December 30 (2012), March 31, July 1, and October 1. For at least two weeks we’ve been experiencing this energy in all its power, and the shift we feel today is one of settling into a process that will lead to an important and beneficial transformation in some area of our life. A note of awkward reality creeps in as Saturn Rx quincunxes Uranus at 9°21' Scorpio/Aries. This means that whatever we’re taking on now is not going to be universally well-received, but it is the right path even if it does startle some around us.

The Day of Saturn in the kabbalistic World of Fire Atziluth. Wearing Black and facing North, invoke the spirit of Johnny Cash into your Base Chakra (The Malkuth "Lil' World" Morphogenetic Field Transceiver) with the mantrum. "Because your mine, I walk the line". With it being Fire week, honor Saturn today by creating greater stability in the Metaverse, actively expressing or experiencing your security needs, and cleansing and strengthening your base Chakra. Our consciousness in this chakra is concerned with survival, with our fight or flight response, with our instincts. It links the individual with the physical world. Serves as the foundation to evolve and build personality. If we are to ignore this chakra, and concern ourselves with the higher levels, we will be growing without roots, we will be unstable, unable to withstand the trials that will come our way. If our survival needs are met, the Base Chakra will function healthily, but if there is a perceived threat to this, (such as a difficult house move, job change, health problems, etc.) it can create an imbalance. Other Saturnian imbalances can show themselves in various ways, from sleeplessness and the inability to relax, to obsession with money, possessions or health. Head and heart synchronize as Moon in Taurus makes a sextile to Mercury before entering its void period at 5:30 am (8:30 am ET). This brief pause in the action ends at 7:13 am with her entry into curious Gemini. A late afternoon contact to Neptune suggests that a nap or a time of daydreaming will be more productive than applying ourselves to a linear or logical task. At 7:37 pm, Mercury enters Aries, the last of the bunch to reach the sign of bold adventure. Accordingly, we feel more spontaneous and mentally sharp, which supports our confidence in taking new steps.

The Day of the Sun in Fireweek. The six of Wands (Sun in Atziluth) is all about being acknowledged, getting a pat on the back, achieving recognition. You can triumph over yourself, the environment, or the odds. Your talents begin in the Divine (Atziluth), develop with the love and support of others, and only in the end express through us. When obtaining the summit of this holy mountain, keep in mind this fourth-dimensional "Metaverse" possesses a design and field of motion encoded with solar-galactic information. Few things symbolize victory and glory like obtaining the summit of this Holy Mountain . In order to do so one has to plan, organize, exercise patience, and overcome mental and physical hardships. In short - be willing to do the seemingly impossible and then accept the credit when your objective is completed. The Moon in Gemini meets the planets of ingenuity and enterprise, Uranus and Jupiter before noon, giving us the rest of the day to use it in inspired projects or the spirit of play.Every human is born with a third-dimensional body and a fourth-dimensional Lightcraft. The physical body is the biological conductor. The Lightctraft is the time transport unit. The body and its Lightcraft are inseparable. The biological conductor sustains the sensory nervous system, the human instrument for processing the full range of experience. The experience of the body is synchronized within the Metaversal Lightcraft. The Lightcraft is the physical body's coded experience in time. The body in time with its Lightcraft is art. Lack of respect for life arises directly from not understanding the true electrical alchemic principles of time compression at the end of solar ages- alchemizes the heart - is because the charge densities which accompany the solar maxima (2000- 2012 - climax of the Mayan / Solar calendar)formerly called RAPTURE by Christians - permit only those biological structures ABLE to non-destructively (and ALCHEMICALLY) compress / implode - to survive. the structural basis for all Light-specific work in the Metaverse is regular, disciplined connection to the No-Form, meditation, contemplation, what ever you want to call it, as long as it's deep. Supremely solitary in that heath of scrub. The Light-Specific state initiates itself with SOLITUDE, the gratifying element of being alone (if only for 20 minutes a day)... without which, true development is impossible. The point is to connect to your inner source of stability, the state of potentia, the No-Form, at least once a day. No-Form is not a goal or state of "spiritual arrival" (as some religions would have us believe), it is a highly practical, multi-purpose tool for dissolving our identification with the ego. If you want to play with us, this is the only rule. The foundation of our Lightcraft is built in Chaos, so you must maintain a firm foundation, or Chaos your life will be. Some of us need this connection four times a day (sunrise, true noon, sunset, true midnight). Some of us actually manage to do it four times a day. It is a choice you must make. I would do it for you if I could. Once a day is all that's required to maintain the Continuity function. Future generations of yourself will be glad this came to pass. The Lightcraft Academy, Yoga Ceremonial Magick, this astrology forecast, they all provide ritual technology for Self initiation. But the key word here is Self. D.I.Y
