Nodes in 25/46

North Node in Gate 25 line 6, South Node Gate 46 line 6, until December 15th - do you see it? How quickly we went from judging others, to perhaps judging ourselves? Hmm the remnants of the nodes slowly dissipating, to see a new view.

The gate of the Spirit of the Self

“The centering of a being depends on the quality of their innocence. The innocence is tested in the 'fire' of competitive energy. Despite the outward appearances the true competition is whether the Self can maintain its innocence despite circumstances.

This is the gate of the Spiritual Warrior, the Shaman / Priestess. It is one of the four gates of the Cross of the Vessel, a gate of Love. Innocence is the gate of the Blood. It is the potential to love existence without discrimination. A flower can be loved as profoundly as a human.

This quality of love is often projected as cool or cold. It is neither. The mystical potential of this love is transcendent and universal. The Spirit is always being tested. This is the gate of scars, of the potential of being wounded.

When the Warrior / Fool leaps into the void, it is Innocence that must land on its feet. The Spirit can be broken but triumph and survival enrich the spirit and result in the wonder of being.”

THE PERFECTION OF ACTION THROUGH UNCONTRIVED AND SPONTANEOUS NATURE.

“Line 6 - Ignorance

False innocence betrayed by actions.
 02° 56' 15" -   03° 52' 30"

  The least mild of a negative position, where inappropriate action is censured. The loss of innocence through inappropriate action.

  Constant inappropriate and destabilizing actions whose very counter-productiveness strips away the facade of innocence. Constant inappropriate action in times of challenges that can break the spirit.”

Gate 46

“This gate is part of the Cross of the Vessel. It is a gate of Love, the love of the body and the flesh.

This is the gate of Serendipity, of recognizing that beginning with one's own body, the body as Temple, that one is always in the right place, at the right time. This can be a gate of discovery and Good Fortune. It is all dependent on the Determination of the Self.

The Design of 'Succeeding where other people fail' is also inversely a Design of 'Failing where other people succeed.'

It is through this channel that the Abstract process can find its promise or chaos. The determination to accept that one is in the right place is deeply spiritual. It is surrender to the cycle and in that surrender is the potential for discovery.

It is also clear, that unless the abstract being can accept and commit themselves to the cyclic nature of their lives, their bodies will begin to fail under the stress of constant crisis, disappointment and upheaval.”

GOOD FORTUNE THAT MAY BE PERCEIVED AS THE RESULT OF SERENDIPITY BUT DERIVES FROM EFFORT AND DEDICATION.

“Line 6 - Integrity

  02° 56' 15" -   03° 52' 30"

  The wisdom to secure one's identity through careful consideration of the restrictive potential of commitments. The determination to say no to restrictive commitments.

  Deceiving oneself and others by overextending one's resources and eventually being in the position of having to break promises. A drive for success that will not say no, and will end up breaking promises.”

My P Mercury is 25.3, “Sensibility”. The recognition that innocent action does not in itself guarantee success.

Gate 25
Line 3 - Sensibility
  00° 07' 30" -   01° 03' 45"

The recognition that innocent action does not in itself guarantee success.
  The power of the ego to withstand failure and still maintain its nature.
The power of the spirit to withstand failure and shock.

  The potential loss of innocence through misfortune that in the extreme can manifest from crime to suicide. The potential loss of spirit through failure or shock.”

I can honestly say I’ve never experienced the desire to off myself with thoughts of suicide. I’ve definitely wanted to get off this crazy ride, but I’d never take my own life. Maybe that will change over time, I don’t think so, but never say never I suppose. I share this today because even though we have the 6th line in action with the nodes, some may be experiencing the 3rd line martyrdom of seeing that trial and error, and with the body south node 46, seeing themselves as the victim. It’s the victimhood of the mind, as a perpetrator of pain and suffering. The qualities that can arrive when mind is not an ally. We have to be deliberate in catching where our minds fuck with us. Have to, in order to put the mind in its place. To see what we are here to see. When we finally see it, life can be pretty funny!

My P Jupiter 46.6, this integrity has been a life long process of awareness. Watching my vehicle as it gives me signs, clues to what works and doesn’t work. What does it mean to me to be in integrity with my body? I’m thankful for the PHS aspect of HD for what it confirmed of how to treat this body. One of the themes I see with this 6th line is really to lighten up. Lighten up your body with healthy foods for you, and movement. Movement literally helps the stuck get unstuck. We have got to learn to laugh at ourselves more. It certainly can be a trial and error process. Which leads me to share…

Line 3 in Gate 46 says

“Projection
  00° 07' 30" -   01° 03' 45"

  A practical approach to good fortune, that maintains the same patterns and attitudes that brought success and does not get sidetracked by indulging in further expectations. The determination to stay with what brings success.

  A tendency through projection to treat a potential future as the present, leading to unjustified egoism and the loss of momentum and support. The determination to treat a projected success as a reality.”

Boy can I see how I’ve been a silly little goose in the past. The power of ego to boost itself up, to create an expectation of others, to make a mountain out of a mole hill. When caught up in the emotional waves of others, or of the collective. It can really do a number on our psyches.

It’s best we check in with the body to see what it needs, instead of expecting anyone else to provide support, start with something small. It is a gift to be simple. And of course if you find those allies that are supportive, love them hard. Create reciprocal exchanges. That’s how’s I’ve seen it anyway. That’s integrity.

With Jupiter in Gemini and Neptune in Pisces, we have an opportunity to transition, or see transitions in others of either creating more integrity within themselves, or not. I wonder how many people are feeling the defeat and loss of innocence, and how that will manifest with this emotional wave. My hope is that by providing the awareness perhaps it will help someone see how the program can condition us in such a way, to focus on such areas of our lives, and perhaps find the innocence something less painful, more bearable…

Innocence can’t be lost, though we can surely forget and lose our way. And the way is so unique to each of us. To me, innocence is such a beautiful way to look at life and come to acceptance. In contemplating this very thing I’m reminded of a Ra quote, I’ll share that below. May we find the love and compassion for ourselves and others, and treat our bodies as temples, a little more gently perhaps. Be safe and take care out there.

“Come to your own darkness, and accept the mechanical. Linger in light, but the mechanical demands a strategy. It is not a struggle, but you have to accept both, not just one.

Accept being in the Maia fully, and living your type seamlessly. You’ll get the normal chaos of human life, plus this deep, deep quiet, which is the recognition of the mechanical and your own helplessness in that.

The mechanical is at peace in the Maia and okay with what happens. After all, it’s not up to us; it never will be. Letting go is not a philosophy, but takes seven years. You have to go through the pain, as the Maia is dense. By working your way through it and grasp it deeply, then you can jump out of all of that.

Get to the point where you are saying, “Yes, there are these two domains – the movie here and the truth of the mechanics there. I have no problem with those two living with each other.”

Life goes on, and nothing changes, as you still your make your choices in the Maia. If you enter the Maia process correctly, live in the Maia correctly, then it won’t constantly occupy you. By accepting these two ways, these two forms, you see that you create one and experience the other. In that acceptance, one truly awakens.

In your own way you’re your own process, you will get to that point, and get to see the state of awareness. So take out the garbage. We think it’s so special, but really it’s not a privilege or a right. If you move correctly, you get the reward. No choice in that.
