Get Over Under ~ 12 Oct 2005

 

Venus daintily skips over a series of black holes in early Sag, squaring off a set of similar singularities (the core of the black hole) in Virgo. Simply, a plethora of ideas and mental fertility abounds. These ideas when they first appear do not intend to become tripping hazards, though they can do that - ask any Sag how easy it is to trip on an idea (or anything for that matter). The ideas seek to provide new vehicles of opportunity to explore, which you can invoke next week.


We need new ideas and innovations right now. The recycling of ideas that worked marginally at best, when running at top end doesn’t cut the mustard. All complications appearing in life, the world and in the media require immediate, incisive delineation and creative solutions. Problem is, it would appear that in the overwhelm of life right now, many under assess the requirements necessary to innovate properly. The fast track runs at such a frenzied pace it could make a great white shark dizzy. It’s going to intensify next week. Those factors underestimated and under assessed evolve into overwhelming circumstances.


The developmental mental pulse underscoring all of this runs 283 seconds in length. That’s just less than five minutes. The need for initial development of any new idea demands full and complete attention for nearly one twelfth of an hour. Five minutes doesn’t seem that long. Try holding one thought and only one thought for that duration. It’s virtually impossible for mutable personalities. That’s where discipline comes in. Write down the original insight on a piece of paper. Scribble down everything your brain seeks to dump for as long as it takes, periodically referring back to the original thought whenever necessary. If you write with wild abandon for an hour, so be it. But write for at least five minutes. No distractions. No answering pings or cell phones. No multitasking. Stay focused and assess everything accurately.


This way when you begin to speak up about your latest insight, you’ll know exactly what it requires to manifest. You’ll ask for what you need from others, who will more likely play in your scenario if they sense your focus, clarity and direction. Scattered individuals likely see potential participants cautiously back away.


The most important factor in this short burst of speed asks for accurate perception of what will be required, not just now, but in the long term. As many astrologers have written, Saturn, the manifesting deity, and Neptune, the wistful dreamer, stand at odds well into next year. Only those with defined plans, precautionary measures consisting of contingencies foreseen in advance, and clarity, pass go and collect karmic brownie points for helping all the folks surrounding the effort or cause. Be one of the clearly planning, creatively dreaming, accurate assessing persons.


Shifting topics here slightly, I have been asked in many venues if I think the bird flu situation is real. Epidemics exponentially expand. Though the numbers in Asia seem small right now, it could mushroom in a blink of an eye. The Saturn-Neptune aspect, which could be reality or fabrication, with the involvement of Mercury the communicator, makes this situation difficult to perceive. The sad politics of the matter makes it look like President Bush used Bird Flu to defer attention from the probability of Carl Rove’s impeachment. The administration with its rampant scare tactics has lost substantial credibility. Like the pattern described earlier in this GT, most nations have some vaccine, but no nation has enough, according to media hype. Who will get the vaccine? Another political shambles ready to occur. The truth/deception pattern, involving Mercury, can go either way. While it is possible this whole thing is smoke, it’s equally likely to be a significant - but not end of human population threatening - concern, especially for the demographics at risk. Let’s reality check our sensors one more time. I have cautious skepticism running, but I could be wrong. Trust your own gut before flu symptoms appear. If they’re wrong about this one, and it’s full of hype, you’ll hear more from me. Meanwhile, eat healthily and fortify your immune system. A mental diet free of negativity and fear mongering can restore sagging systems, too.
