Metaversal Waterweek: October 20th to the 27th

Tuesday, October 20
Mars rules Tuesday and also rules Aries, where Vesta, asteroid of passion, conjuncts the South Node from now through Saturday, giving us a chance to heal karma by devoting our inner fire to doing the right thing rather than pursuing personal gratification. If Mars does not have new paths to blaze, it can easily retreat to a position of vulnerability and insecurity. Overt aggression may not result, but grumpy behavior and moodiness are possible. One can easily play the victim, if that's a familiar pattern. Nations and other organizations may circle their wagons against their perceived attackers. However, creation of circles of careful initiative that blend the best of the old and the new can be highly successful at this time. Is your Martian energy burning like a fuel tank on a crashed jumbo jet in the Algerian desert? Or burning like a sputtering flame on a wet candle? Or burning steady like a presto-log in the hearth of the Almighty? It all depends on the quality of your fuel, and the proper fuel/air ratio. When your body (93 percent seawater) is nourished by fiery insight, MA'AT has been achieved. Then your fire is not frightening and lethal, but glowing with placid contentment. The constructive potential of Second Quarter Moon in Capricorn is accented by this conjunction, as well as by cardinal contacts, making for a productive morning, best applied in independent efforts. These efforts may even be heroic, considering last night’s contact to Uranus, the individualist, in the warrior sign of Aries, and today’s square to Sun in Libra, whose feisty side can be triggered by this aspect, reducing the likelihood of harmonious collaboration with others. The Sabian symbol for the 27 degrees Capricorn underscores the potential for inner and outer progress as it evokes the most famous phrase from the emerald tablet:

“Men climb a sacred peak. Below the world, above peace. Necessary linkage of above and below.”

At 6:38 pm (9:38 ET), Moon enters Aquarius. We can favorably use this open, intelligent and good-willed energy to call a friend or an altruistic accomplice, or enjoy a good, far-reaching book.

Wednesday, October 21
The Day of Mercury in the kabbalistic World of Water. Mercury's function is to communicate. To think. To know. To reason. Language is his playground. The Akasic Library is his home. And oh yes, Hermes is a Love god. He likes the sound of his own voice. Write a poem, a sonnet, or some erotica today and them transmit that information to at least one other person. I write these darn things every Wednesday.
Moon in intellectual Aquarius trines mental Mercury—Wednesday’s ruler—in facile Libra, making today great for study, a visit to the library, writing, conversing with friends, and mentally stimulating interchanges in general. Moon in Aquarius, sign of genius, trines Mercury in facile Libra this morning. The Moon in Aquarius lightens the mood and gives us access to an objective viewpoint. Aquarius represents,on the level of the first octave, the period between 12 weeks to 28 weeks after Conception, when the electrick nervous system of the fetus switches on. On the level of the fourth octave (see Chapter 9 of the Meteversal Lightcraft Training Manual for more on the Four Octaves), Aquarius represents the higher
Self projecting itself to the world tribe, through media, groups, circles of friends (your Tribe) and utopian aims and idealistic pursuits alter the prevailing social systems. On the World scale, Aquarius occupies the period between AD 1840 and 1910. This was the time when the established dominance of the material world in Capricorn quickly required more sophisticated planning, spurred by Schopenhauer, ideas and beliefs from the east began flooding the West through such diverse channels as the Theosophical Society, the Golden Dawn, and the operas of Wagner. This was the time of Crowley, Nietzsce, and the early works of Freud. With the Moon in Aquarius we have the ability to combine East and West, Light and Dark, Sun and Moon. This is where we are compelled to reach out to others and network. Our mind is sharp and open to the heart’s wisdom as we look at a perplexing situation. Develop and present ideas, resolve a dispute, join with stimulating others, or lend your efforts to a loving cause. Lunar contacts to Venus and Jupiter in analytic Virgo facilitate innovation in science, healing methods and problem solving.

Everyone laughed when I sent my dog Zero to the Canine Academy Of Design, but they won't be laughing today when he continues to shit all over their lawn. The Day of Jupiter in the kabbalistic World of Water.Projecting Light Specific Blue and facing West, vibrate this azure deluxe into your Second Chakra along with the mantrum: EE-BE-DA. Jupiter is all about allowing ambiguity, contradiction, and movement. It isn't about integration. It helps the ego become more flexible. By Jove, life isn't about staying calm and balanced, but rather about keeping complexity and drama and everything else alive and in dynamic flow. Moon in rebellious Aquarius accents the questioning influence of Mercury, as the messenger planet squares Pluto. Avoid wasting energies in power struggles, unless there’s a case to prepare or a negotiation to plan. Instead, it’s extremely productive to direct this laser-like ray of penetrating perception by getting out of our mental comfort zones and making an extra effort to seek understanding that has eluded us, whether it be a matter of finance, work, or a topic of academic or spiritual study. The night lightens up when Moon in Aquarius goes VOC on a trine to Sun in sweet Libra at 9:22 pm (12:22 ET). Relax with good company or a good book before bed.


Friday October 23
It’s the Day of Venus in Waterweek, so, If you actively invoke blessed HANIEL, the Archangel of Venus into your heart today, you may find you have developed the ability to feel like Khrisna, multiplying himself into a dozen pastoral, naked farmhands with muddy feet and emerald pond scum on their thighs, or maybe you are a young Freya on the back of a panther, eating honey. In the Western Mystery Tradition, the most pervasive polyamorous archetype is Aphrodite, Greek goddess of Love and Beauty. She is Venus, Ishtar, Astarte, Inanna and relates to the sephera Netzach on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. While she had more lovers than any other Greek goddess she was not victimized and never suffered from her numerous love affairs as did many of the other goddesses. Neither was she jealous or possessive. Unlike her counter parts she was allowed freely to choose both her husband and many lovers. She inspired poetry, communication and art as well as love. Her liaison with Hermes produced the bisexual Hermaphroditus. and her long time union with Mars (God of War) produced a daughter, Harmonia. Thus Love and War combined to give rise to Harmony.At 12:02 am (3:02 ET), Venus, ruler of love and money, makes a trine to Pluto, both in practical earth signs. This fortuitous harmony can renew our love life, finances and heal female health concerns. It may also precipitate insightful dreams that we’ll remember on waking with the help of Moon in Pisces, sign of dreams, whose intuition is even sharper as it joins ruler Neptune. Deep goes deeper when Sun enters Scorpio today, intensifying passions and activating our urge for real change. The dance of shadows continues this evening as Moon harmonizes with Pluto, helping us direct our desire to heal in truly transformative ways, which can range from mantras and positive affirmations to meditation, dream work, or any modality that joins spirit, feelings and earth.

The Day of Saturn in the kabbalistic World of Water, Briah. Wearing Black and facing North, invoke the spirit of Andrew Eldritch into your Base Chakra (The Malkuth "Lil' World" Morphogenetic Field Transceiver) with the mantrum. "Hey Now, Hey Now Now". With it being Waterweek, 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. Moon in mystical Pisces goes VOC early this morning on an opposition to Mars in grounded, kindly Virgo. In the sign of the fish, the VOC is effective, and lends its gentle vibrations to the planet of action, empowering the initiatives we take for spirituality, healing, helping or defending others or the environment, and making an appointment with the artist within.
