Embrace the Centauric Consciousness

Embrace the Centauric Consciousness or First Identify the Wounds?

As I write this the Moon is Void of Course (no apects - like sitting in a vacuum) V/C till 1:02 AM PST moving ino Aries: time for action. With a dynamic takeoff things will be moving forward - Mars ruler of instinct and basic assertiveness
goes direct Mañana. The intense warrior been down so long (retro since Oct. 1st) the bull Taurus has to bust loose. Just a word to the wise end of March Chiron will be squaring that degree 8 degree 14" place where Mars stations - plus big time hit for Pluto in middle of the galaxy.

Lately I have been harping on the entrance of the Centauric/Chironic energy entering Aquarius 12-5. It has been postulated that The Existential aligns with Centauric level symbolized by Chiron, whereas the Transpersonal levels by the collective planets, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Sedna and beyond. Yes Chiron which has been called the Rainbow Bridge between Jupiter/Saturn (Social Level) to Uranian Outer Energy is taking our collective conciousness by storm. In the last few days we have already seen the global reaction of outrage to multiple wounds - from the shooting of a mentally-wounded man by US Air Marshals in Miami to the possibility of Mumia Abu-Jamal winning a new trial - he is the award winning journalist who has been on death row since 1982 Wounds long standing are being recognized in a different light = "if I cannot choose my fate, I can nevertheless choose my attitude toward it." For instance as of today the fate of Stanley Tookie Williams in Schwarzenegger's Hands -Tookie (who has chosen a different attitude) sees his lawyers plead for his life knowing it is up to Arnie. Or on Dec 6th, University of South Florida professor Sami Al-Arian was acquitted of eight counts in a terrorism-conspiracy trial - testing the Patriot Act one of the worse injury's done to the seemingly immortal constitution.

Since Chiron's discovery in 1977, Astrologers have argued, debated and compared the meaning of this maverick asteroid/planet. One of the big deals is the Virgo versus Sagittarius rulership. One camp favours the Virgo rulership with focus on the body (somatic) aspect of the centaur. The other group says Sagittarius with a focus on the mental (noetic) aspect. Of course most of the holistic theraphies acknowledge a mind-body integrated approach. Joyce Mason weighed into the the rulership debate with her Sector Rulership theory. This theory posits that Chiron rules the entire sector of the zodiac from Virgo to Sagittarius. In other words, it rules a process that begins with Virgo, where we become aware of our wound, began to synthesize and embark on the healing quest. The next leg of the journey is Libra, where we seek balance and healing (many times thru talk theraphy with another) ; then we through to Scorpio, where we pass through a death, a transformation and perhaps resurection process of healing. Finally the completion of the quest is Sagittarius, we become the teacher and mentor, dispensing a balanced ‘higher’ education at last prepared to impart our wisdom to others.

Looking back on the myth of Chiron we should consider that he gave up his immortality to relieve Prometheus's suffering. Barbara Hand Clow, for example, writes that "Chiron gave himself willingly so that the fire could be released from the Underworld by Prometheus." It also took Prometheus to agree with this act of martyrdom. Chiron regretted his immortality but Prometheus consented to take on the burden. I thonk I would.

Despite these glorious ideas it should be realized that uranus (modern ruler of Aquarius) is the higher octave for Mercury which rules the mind and mental illness. With an increased sense of stress and magnified sense of urgency (even to the point of creating hysteria) we are going to see unusual nervous disorders develop. As Neptune transits in Aquarius reach opposition to Saturn/Leo next year, much mental an psychological tension will accompany the need to dominate or topple existing structural realities. Our conciousness is being altered in an evolutionary and mass brain washing fashion much manipulation. The crisis of materialism is another form of social manipulation, you have to earn more to just pay for daily living.
