Dear Friends
I found reading the two blog entries below very instructive.
Grand cross between Sun, Mars, Neptune and Saturn is on now.
And I feel that "Saturn in Leo" is a very accurate translation for:
Individual Sovereignty
by Spiritwind
A person who is truly awake and aware of his own Source, and who is able to be in perfect communion with such, has his/her struggle in life finished as they look beyond all that comes to an end, looking instead into the forever and what true love is all about. It is the surrendering of the ability to remain in such communion, that sovereignty has been lost over the history of mankind.
This has been exploited by all people who have sought power at the expense of the individual by having them nominate them to look after the interests of the people via judicial process and control by the state, no matter what the name of such clothing appears.
Democracy is still a veiled control system where individual sovereignty is suspended for the plural aspect of such, where the community decides the outcome over the individual. The erosion of such power has disenfranchised the masses to seek a conscious awareness of Source, even though it is always ever present in our subconscious.
Both church and state have been involved in the rape of the most basic premise of freedom that each individual has, by taking that role onto themself, thereby limiting need to seek direct Sacred endorsement on any choices made. Where these tools would have been the means to such a personal connection with Source, by the means becoming drunk with power, such powers have become the end, instead of the means to seeking the true power end.
We have God's representative on earth, in the Pope, if you acknowledge that, and if you don't, then that particular community is anathema to you, as is the muslim faith to the Christians, and vice versa.
Conquer by dividing the semantics is an effective means of control. When a study of such a subject is made, it becomes obvious that it has taken centuries of building such judicial laws to effectively remove the possibility of individual sovereignty to an out of reach position, to most people. We do not have centuries to develop and counter such nonsense, that is an affront to whom we all are at our most deepest levels. It is we who have given such powers away, and support through our own self serving interests.
Therefore, I do not see a peaceful solution to the problems faced in order to regain our most basic right, of sovereignty in the presence and personal communion to ones own Source (God; Great White Spirit; Tao etc.), however you might define this to be.
We are living in a time of magic, where the gap between worlds is narrowing quickly and more people are awakening all of the time, to find themselves quite restricted as to how, when, or what they are able to do in miracles, magic, and acceptable sacred rites.
For many people, the use of entheogens is part of their own religious rites. It is hushed throughout the media that Cannabis is considered to be the Sacred Herb in many places in this world, and scientists are already providing the proof that it was the original tree of life, and the anointing oil of the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. It is not mentioned too often that even tobacco is considered to be an entheogens (meaning; plants that can cause us to be in God) by the Indians or indigenous cultures of North America where this plant comes from.
What is the point in telling about the health risks to people involved in smoking a peace pipe? Or telling those using peyote for their religious rites, or shamans who use Salvia Divinorum, that it is wrong? This is where the judiciary has shown that they will intervene to prevent the experience of individual sovereignty through the use of powerful and well known plants to assist people to create the bridge between heaven and earth.
Because of such erosions, it is not just certain plants consciousness that is emerging to drive humans to allow it to be free to grow outside again, but the fragmentation of our own psyches from communion with Source that is the well of water that never runs dry; that are the inner things driving the change. Consequently, many are driven to seek communion in institutions that have shown themselves to be hollow, morally corrupt, and bankrupt in soul.
The loneliness of separation is increased, and to offset that, a figure that is mythical in history but not real in its actuality (Jesus has been proved to have been married and had children, did not die on a cross, with little to prove otherwise) in order to have people put their orphaned feelings to a man/god in vicarious ways. Any chance of regaining such a connection is lessened by making illegal, any plant substance that can alter ones consciousness to give a person such a mystical experience, where man is connected in their own way to the divine principle in us all.
There are some areas still open for such connections to be discovered, but they have been lost through using heathen customs absorbed by church, to prevent such a discovery. Instead of a "second birth" experience into sacred realms through initiation, that can now be had through either a few drops on the forehead, or a full baptism in water by other Christian churches. Gone are the experiential vision quests and initiations, where young people turning into men and women became awakened to the sacred realms within. Long gone and forgotten. Even sweat lodges of the north American Indians is done by few, and to prepare for a Sun Dance which achieves the same communion with the Great White Spirit, takes a full twelve months of solid preparation of body and soul.
So despite the attempts of authority figures to deny a person their individual personal and inner communion with Source in a direct way, all of the doors have not been able to be closed. In the days ahead, because of such a situation, that we have allowed for our own disempowerment, I see great liberating days coming, but at personal expense and loss of material possessions. It is such that we have clung, just like a kid sticks to his thumb, pacifier or dummy, or comfort blanket.
Things cannot bring satisfaction of the soul, that only mirrors our seeking to drink directly from the Source within each and every one of us, on an inner level. As we move closer to the invisible becoming visible, and the unconscious becoming conscious, those who continue to hold us back from such a discovery within, do so at their own peril, and it will have the dire consequences of triggering sacred disruption of all systems and levels.
That is the true level that this is all building to where we each become responsible for. As mankind begins to awaken, a tsunami of spirit will sweep around the world very quickly, and those who have attempted to take such power that is not theirs to begin with, to themselves, will feel the heat the most, as the correction that will shift us all.
It is coming, on every level, and a simplicity and humbleness of spirit is perhaps the only way we can bow before our own divinity in asking for mercy in surviving such a monumental shift. Each and everything will regain personal and inner Sovereignty where the only thing that we need to answer to, lies deep in ones own heart and soul, and exists in Love. It is not to be feared, only our own inflated views of our ego and power.
Everything we hold dear might get swept away to bring us back into line in one quick move that will astound everyone and everything. It comes. Do the homework now, even around sovereignty, so that you can stand in your own Personal Power that will be rediscovered for all in the days to come. Learn the love language, and begin to move away from those things that have a short shelf life; namely the big boys and their big toys, that is just an exercise in image and ego. Let go, and let God is an old saying that in its right context is where it is at. Not a church, or religion. You are the church on the way to meet. Seek out your own community, and be at peace. Be responsible for your own actions, with no blame going anywhere else, other than seeing the external as a mirror. When looking in the mirror and seeing dirt, it will never help to clean the mirror, as the dirt is on you, not the mirror.
The beginning of personal sovereignty is in such inner shifts of the dynamic which have been institutionalized, in order to shift inner issues away from the self. Only by seeking inner change will outer ones begin also. Whether insurance, licencing, or whatever we have put into place to hold us back, look within, and find what it is that gives us security from doing these things over taking personal responsibility for everything I might create in my life without need to shift the blame.
Love wants to learn without blaming the external, so that we let go of the things that bring about clinging to materialism, or whatever we might be doing where we feel in need of through a defensive attitude, lock, piece of paper, legislation, or statehood going somewhere else. Personal sovereignty is taking responsibility to new levels, and if we do get there inside of ourselves in full power, we will indeed become powerful and wise in the language of Love.
I see clearly now that the way to begin to change the structures externally we all wish to see changed, is not to seek to change the external structure, but my victimhood around why they need to be there in the first place, and to shift things inside so that they are no longer an issue on any level.
Therefore, spread around love and compassion (through first discovering it within), kindness, gentleness, and a respect and honouring of all languages and cultures found along the way.
Your ability to be in that space might be your own saving grace in the horrors of such change, where people will cling to their treasures and fears with desperation for not knowing better. Aid them in letting go, by first letting go of those things inside of yourself. Practice giving more than receiving, and show compassion to everything asking you to open your heart encouraging others to do the same. Personal sovereignty can thus be born anew in right perspective.
The rest is up to you, so play it forward as much as able with yourself, and the reward will be great indeed!
