Fireweek/The Capricorn Lunar Cycle 2016
The seed/ideas we have from the New Moon to the First Quarter Moon come from the kabbalistic world of Atziluth (Fire) and are the blueprints/seeds for everything that exists, has existed, and will ever exist in the physical world of Assiah (Earth), as an embodiment of the archetypal idealized apple (or a least the Core).. Fireweek is the time to remember we're in the pilots seat of our own personal Lightcraft and make some course corrections if we've veered off course…Pythagoras founded a philosophical and religious school in Croton and was the head of the society with an inner circle of followers known as mathematikoi. The mathematikoi lived permanently with the Society, had no personal possessions and were vegetarians. They were taught by Pythagoras himself and obeyed strict Aquarian rules. The beliefs that Pythagoras held were
(1) that at its deepest level, reality is mathematical in nature,
(2) that philosophy can be used for spiritual purification,
(3) that the soul can rise to union with the divine,
(4) that certain symbols have a mystical significance, and
(5) that all brothers and sisters of the order should observe strict loyalty and secrecy. Pythagoras noticed that vibrating strings produce harmonious tones when the ratios of the lengths of the strings are whole numbers, and that these ratios could be extended to other instruments. In fact Pythagoras made remarkable contributions to the mathematical theory of music. He was a master musician, playing the lyre, and he used music as a means to help those who were ill. Well you can turn me to salt, dye me blue, and let the cows lick me into the homunculus of remorse, whence I will go about the countryside ejaculating Pythagoras' name through kitchen windows. And the people will say, 'Look out, it's him again.' And, typically, there will be those among them who will say, 'Let's kick him to death.' And still others will countermand them, saying, 'No - let's just maim him and send him on his way.' Citizens and townsfolk, can you not see the sign around my neck? LOCK UP YOUR DOUBTERS: SHE IS RISEN, LIKE THE WOBBLY ROD OF MAN AS IT DOWSETH THE FLUIDIFEROUS CHALICE OF THE EMPERESS!
Wednesday, December 28
The Day of Mercury in the week of Fire. Mercury's function in Yetzirah 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 Pay attention to last night’s dreams.This morning can be constructive, productive and even entrepreneurial after Moon enters Capricorn at 7:12 am (10:12 ET). The numerology of today’s number, 1, resonates with the force of Sun, who joins with mental Mercury as he sextiles dynamic Mars, for a feast of confidence and mental energy. Use it to clarify your intent for the late-night New Moon, and design a plan of action and communication to support that intent.
Remember that Mercury is retrograde; time to retrieve an intention or project seeded before December 2. It’s only natural to review and reevaluate our most significant successes and failures as we approach the new year. We are serious about setting reasonable goals now that the Sun, Mercury and Pluto are camped out in ambitious Capricorn. The Moon enters Capricorn at 10:11 am EST, reminding us to get down to business. Retrograde Mercury’s connections with the Sun and Mars motivate us to reconsider our current path before making any resolutionsAt 10:53 pm (1:53 am ET), Moon is born anew. Uranus is stationing to turn direct, so this portal will galvanize our freedom impulse.As the first New Moon after Solstice, it indicates that this impulse will be flavor the entire year ahead.The Sabian symbol for 8 Capricorn says: A HEAVILY VEILED HEIROPHANT LEADS A RITUAL OF POWER. Gathering together the power of the group to one purpose and into an individual will. “Avatar-ship”. Responsibility.The layers of this symbol can range from hidden manipulation of the masses, to a unified collective mobilization. On a personal level, we are invited to strengthen the avatar within and assume the responsibility of congruence with our principles and mission.The theme of power reasserts itself as this lunation makes a wide conjunction to Pluto. Between the Uranus station—still
in orb of the trine from Saturn—and this lunation, we are up for a time of major change. 2017 is not looking like a year for sis

The New Moon themes of change, power and structure linger, as Uranus turns direct and Moon joins with Pluto, Mr. Intense.
The numerology of today’s 11 invites us to lift our personal and collective vibration by radiating love. Make a space for
prayer or meditation and call on the light beings to help with this transmutation.
Capricorn Moon also facilitates results in business and practical affairs.

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. Venus, who gets oversimplified like a lot of her sisters, is one of the most complex planets going: she works as an attractive force and as a creative one. wellThe 5 roses represent the five senses in the Empress card (Atu 3) And in the Lovers card (Atu 6 ) the senses are the five fruits of Eve. Venus is indeed in cahoots with the senses. All movement of all living creatures in world of Assiah are tied to the senses and the desire-nature. The accomplished Lightpilot can remove the robe of desire in order to withdraw into the worlds of Briah and Atzitluth, but in order to achieve anything in the physical realms you keep that robe on. When you act, your gonna act in terms of desire. Venus represents that which is desirable. Every living thing seeks pleasure and tries to avoid pain. Victory lies in understanding our desire nature and learning how to use it. Save work, shopping and practical concerns for this afternoon or evening, as Moon goes VOC in Capricorn before dawn. Sun sextiles Neptune, great for working on a dream board or working or generating some kind of visualization of New Moon/New Year’s intentions. At 5:29 pm (8:29 ET), Moon enters Aquarius, and the festive spirit surges. This is a great time to connect with friends and plan your party to avoid mixing drinking and driving.

The Day of Saturn in the kabbalistic World of Fire. 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 Airweek, 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. Romping Mars joins dreamy Neptune, a potentially steamy combination that could favor a hot encounter at a sauna or Turkish bath, but also warns us to go light on liquor and avoid mixing drinking with driving, with operating machinery or for that matter with potentially boisterous attitudes and settings. This combination can be well directed in taking some heroic action for a cause or person, like helping the homeless or volunteering to wash the dishes at a soup kitchen.However you choose to celebrate, low-key and sober is probably safer. I hope this isn't an ackward time to mention that 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
