Celestial Cattywumpus ~ 5 July 2012

Earlier today Ceres aligned with the lunar south node on her approach to Jupiter, who stands close with Venus - all of this in Gemini


Mars now approaches the Super-Galactic Center - a supermassive black hole that collects more than thirty galaxies, including ours, preparing for an ultimate galactic smorgasbord some time millions of years in the future.


Add to the above the fact that a coronal mass ejection left the Sun on the 4th and the indications are strong that more ejections might be stirring the atmosphere of the Earth over the next days. Of course, those operating below the umbrella of our planet’s atmosphere will feel those buzzing vibes in the air and the resulting resident irritation and discombobulation.


Add to the above the fact that scientists believe they may have found the “God Particle,” also known as the Higgs boson particle.


Welcome to Cattywumpus-ville.


Is the current cattywumpus causing confusion? That’s likely. And it doesn’t have to do so.


Let’s work backward up this list to sort it all out.


Ah, the God Particle. There are two important things to consider here. Remember this search resulted in the propagation of ultra-paranoid conspiracy theories that the activation of the Large Hadron Collider would somehow manufacture mini black holes and the Earth split apart or be devoured. The point being: another theory of fear-based projection bites the dust. Second, there is no religious implication to the naming of this enigmatic subatomic thingamabob. The actual name comes from a proposed title for a book by Leon Lederman, who suggested the particle should be called the “god damn particle” because no one can find the gd thing. Publishers rejected his offensive title and soon thereafter, the media grabbed onto the God Particle label and ran with it. Physicists, including Higgs - a devout atheist - despise the moniker. So as physicists search for the how and why of the Big Bang, no surge in religious enthusiasm should be construed to be accompanying this discovery nor for any of the subsequent revelations. After all, the fact that the big bang took place whatever conjectured millions, billions, trillions of years ago remains inconvenient to the Biblical assessments of the age of Creation.


Okay, onto the mundane effects of the Earth and earthlings receiving the high energy stimulation of solar emanation. As noted before in previous posts, this is the body, mind and spirit out of synch syndrome. With an irritating effect similar to a Chinook, Santa Ana or any other highly ionized wind, psychic coping mechanisms typically fail to stand on reactionary high ground. Should you be feeling annoyance that runs outside the bounds of life experience in the moment, do your best to get in nature and get grounded. If your local weather is inclement, take a few seconds to hug a tree or pet a philodendron, or do whatever connect with the Earth grounding drill you can conjure.


Once grounded, you may feel an unusual magnetism swirling about. This stirring comes from Mars aligning with the Super Galactic Center. It is as if there is a draw... an attraction to some place something that is powerful, amazing and ultimately attractive. The draw is real and if one follows the black hole bread crumbs they will lead straight to the doorway to one’s spirit. The Super Galactic Center is the place where one truly bonds with the soul. It is mind with body, body with spirit, consciousness with soul. It can be as simple as a visualization in which you meet the master on the path - the master who has the answer you’ve been seeking. After asking the master’s counsel and taking in the reply, check out the master’s eyes. Should they look familiar that would be about right. The master’s eyes should look just like yours, because they are.


An alternative would be to create a meditative process in which one dives off a high cliff with the goal of diving into the core of ones being. Or fighting a windmill that claims victory and captures you into the exact core of your being. It does not matter what the imagery is. The goal of Mars to the Super Galactic Center: take whatever action is required to fall into your center and stay there.


After the fall, so to speak, listen. Listening is one part of communication that the machine gun verbiage attributed to Gemini might have difficulty following. With Ceres, South Node, Jupiter and Venus all essentially aligned in Gemini, listening might be the most important navigation tool in this highly charged time. Turn off the iPod or whatever background distraction may be running. Turn the ambient noise of the heater, air conditioner, fish tank, ice maker into white noise and listen.


Locate your inner voice and listen carefully. There’s a purpose for this. The purpose may be relocating a long-standing objective diminished by the busy-ness of life (South Node in Gemini). Regardless, the purpose remains paramount. Locate your inner voice and listen. Tune in, and after a comprehensive sitting with yourself, become an advocate (Ceres) for that voice. Reach out to Jupiter for the justification to pursue the agendas (Jupiter), dreams and desires (Venus) you hold for yourself. Without rationalization or battling any subconsciousness interference, claim your wishes as real and valid and set a self-fulfilling course to the destination of your goals.


You know, during the last days of Mars in Virgo (up until earlier this week) and feeling the surges of solar energy, it could have been a bit nasty out there in human interaction land. Insults added might have done more that kick those on the ground and vitriol may have spilled over in public online places. Mars, now on the Super Galactic Center, reminds you that if your best effort got panned by critics, reviewers, or the apparent gate keepers to your ultimate success in life, there are other places you can apply your talents. One negative review does not a consensus make. If tuned into your personal galactic center(s), you’ll access the goods you bring to the metaphorical table.


Turn the table your way. Set your place, and sit a spell at the celebration of cattywumpus.
