Numerology/Astrology for 10/26/18

 

10/26/18 is the number 20. The number 20 allows the Negative Mind of the number 2 to be magnified by times 10 because of the 0. That right now is translating into recognizing the danger that has always been humanity. While humans are wondrous and magical, talented and kind, there are also those who believe things that want to tear down this world, whether they are indiscriminate hunters, those that incite mob violence, or those that believe things that are out of the socially appropriate levels that are acceptable in a society. This world (and I mean world) is in danger of collapsing into chaos. It is hanging by a thread. We cannot let insanity take over. The consequences are too great and too terrible to comprehend. It is up to each of us to stand for truths that have been the core values of the American way. The negativity is taking over only if you do not confront it. Shadows disappear in the brilliance of the light of truth.

The Sun is in Scorpio and Venus is retrograde in Libra at the midpoint. Situations become emotionally heightened and fated. Motivations are about desire not about reason. Attempts to find balance are difficult at such a time. Placating people and situations to smooth over the differences is not the way to handle things because then you only show how much in the dark you are about your own feelings and relationships. You think you know what you want but the reality is that you want something to end. What you want to end is your own pain and inner conflict. There are those that will need to be right above all things. That is a dangerous mixture.

The Moon in Taurus lasts until mid-afternoon at which point it goes into Gemini. With this Moon there is an elusiveness because of its ruling planet Mercury. Mercury is the only God who could go from Heaven to Hell and back. That is the pathway we are on at this time in America. Evolve by flowing into the darkness enveloping us and reach for the light with all you have.

Striving and Arriving

In a world of conflict how can you step beyond the stress and strain of the daily chaos and suffering that humanity is inflicting upon this beautiful world?

Humanity makes a mistake in seeing striving as a thing that makes you great.

But what makes you great is being authentic. All that striving is effort from ego. Effort from needing the external to acknowledge you in some way. But Arriving is about being. Arriving is about allowing the flow to show you the path instead of you chopping out a path in the jungle of life.

I spent a lot of my time when I was younger striving for success. And it worked. I made it to the top of a lot of mountains. The effort and energy expenditure gave me the sense of satisfaction. The exhaustion told me that I was doing something right. But was it?

As I matured, I recognized a new desire but that “new desire” was actually the expansion and magnification of the old underlying motivation that drove me before. Under all that ego and youthful striving, was a desire to find my authentic self.

I did understand that I had enough ego that I needed to break it down. And striving, again and again, did manage to break down the ego and strip me of all the self-importance that shielded me from the reality of my own frozen self.

Once I realized that, I also saw that striving would never give me the peace that my authentic self was attempting to offer. I recognized that I needed to allow myself to just be enough. That when I knew I was enough then what others thought or projected upon me did not matter in the least. There is safety in authenticity. There is peace in permission to just be. There is compassion in realness. There is no striving when you do not need to belong, and you just need to be.

From that place many things drop away, striving being one of them. Ego another. I do not need to be right I need to only speak the truth of my deepest heart in each and every moment. I only need to speak from the place of compassion for life and support truth rather than illusion. And the opinions of others no longer really matter unless they are also coming from a place of deep love and truth.

In a world where fear is the motivating force for what you need to say, know that speaking from fear is never authentic. Fear is never about arriving. It is the expression of a lost self. Authentic means “In this moment, what is real?”.
Fear is always about the past wounds rearing their heads for you to address, see, heal, and transform. Authenticity is surrendered. Authenticity is accepting. And authenticity does not back down in the face of evil. But it cannot confront evil from a place of fear and win.

The authentic self is bright. And the light of truth that authenticity shines withers the shadows of evil back into the darkness.
