SOLAR ECLIPSE AUGUST 21 2017 – In The Heart of the Elders of Tibet
The Solar Eclipse with New Moon in Leo
in the Tibetan and Vedic Traditions
21st August 2017 18:26 GMT
If you are reading this then you will be feeling a tremendous shift in energy and know that extraordinary change is upon our planet.
You will know that the energies surrounding us and protecting us are the collective consciousness of the Elders or Archangels, also called the Pitris or Protectors of Humanity in the Vedic Traditions, who are like guardian angels giving protection in the time of major calamities on earth.
You will feel the energies of the Solar Eclipse that occurs in the 29th degree of Leo, conjoining the Sun and Moon and Mars, sextile Jupiter and trine Uranus and Saturn.
With such a conflux of energies it signals the end of the cycles we knew and ushering in an era of radical change and the advent of a new and momentous cycle for the planet.
The Solar Eclipse and The Elders connect to the fixed star Regulus at 29 degrees in Leo, the energy of Magha in the Vedic Tradition and Chu, Ta Chen in Tibet.
Magha means Mighty One and Chu is the Lord of the Eight Bonds.
This is a royal energy, a sovereign consciousness giving mystical leadership and the power to leave your body (tyage kshepani shakti).
You may be finding dreams, visions, energies within and inter-dimensional travel a regular daily occurrence.
Paramahansa Yogananda had his rising sign and Moon in Magha.
Spiritual liberation is possible here.
Donald Trump has his rising sign at 29 degrees Leo in Magha.
The shadow side of Magha is arrogance, racial superiority, prejudice and identification with class status.
We can expect to see a devastating effect on his Presidency as a result of this shadow energy, winning the kingdom, but losing his soul.
You are the Light.
You know the Destiny of Divine Mother where you embrace your highest spiritual destiny in such a time.
Your purpose path and passion call to you to arise arise arise and step into your power, your divine sovereignty, with all its uniqueness and beauty.
Your Heart is stirred to take your biggest step, unplugging from the mass consciousness, letting go of beliefs that do not serve your highest purpose and daring to take the risk to live a passionate life of deep spiritual purpose, healing and liberating the planet and all beings.
In Tibet Chu Ta Chen the Lord of the Eight Bonds brings the poet from your heart, the power of your inner Great Horse, passion and sensuality, a strong sense of what you need to do to express your path of pathlessness with creativity and power.
The Petals in the Flower of Life, Your Sacred Heart, will blossom and flourish with practice.
PRACTICE
So how do we practice at such a critical time?
Humility, courage on your path, and the knowledge that it is your responsibility to arise and liberate, yourself first, by allowing the light to enter, and then others.
Let us consider this next step with the Elders, the Archangels, most carefully, you and I.
Magic truly does happen, in all our lives, and it is happening right now all around us, including integrating the collective consciousness of the Elders, the Archangels.
You just have to know where to look.
Matthew 6: (21 – 22)
Yeshua said,
“For your Heart is where the treasure is.
The Light of the Body is the eye.
If your eye is single, your whole body will be full of Light.”
In our Heart is the Light, in our Love is the Absolute.
In the Kalachakra, the Dalai Lama tells us we can turn this Love, symbolized by the elements in our bodies, into deities, into the energies of gods and goddesses through the power of our concentration, visualization and attention.
And Thich Nhat Hanh, in the Heart Sutra, tells us we can transform our Heart into the Heart of Guan Yin Avalokiteshvara through the power of shamatha, stopping, using the mind and heart in a concentrated and pure way, and vipassana, deep seeing, looking deeply into the object of our meditation which could be our joy or our suffering or our anger.
The opening lines of the Heart Sutra say
“The bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara Guan Yin in looking deeply perceived that everything is empty of a separate existence and upon that realization became free.”
And Mooji says “Emptiness is the greatest freedom…only in this…is God revealed.”
Mary Magdalene, in the Gospel of Mary of Magdala, speaks of the same purity of concentration “I saw the Lord in a vision and said to him, “Lord I saw you today in a vision”. He answered me, “How wonderful you are for not wavering at seeing me. For where the mind and the heart is, there is the treasure”.
To practice this creation of magic through the Elders in our lives whether it be through western alchemy or eastern tantra or any other practice of prayer or meditation, silence, stillness or merging with nature through music or art or life, we only need to give time to this pure concentration and deep seeing.
10 minutes a day is all it takes.
To sit with Guan Yin or Mary Magdalene or whatever form or formlessness the Absolute takes within you.
The Goddess Guan Yin IS the practice of knowing the absolute through observing, listening and looking deeply into the sounds of this world, the joys and suffering of this world.
And this world is us, you and I, and all beings in the Shared Heart.
As St. Therese says, about the practice itself.
“Most of all I imitate the behavior of Mary Magdalene, for her amazing – or, rather, loving – audacity which delighted the heart of Jesus, has cast its spell upon mine.”
Try sitting still for just ten minutes, with or without sound codes and focusing on the breath, the Sacred Breath of the Archangels.
Say to yourself
“Breathing in, I am aware I am breathing in love and kindness, wisdom and compassion of the Archangels…
Breathing out I am aware I am breathing out love and kindness, wisdom and compassion of the Archangels.”
Let me know what your path reveals.
