Neptune Opposite Eros for the last days of the year

Awareness to all levels of the reality in which we function have the opportunity to come into review at year end.

Possibly Neptune can either give great clarity or great delusion depending on what we are willing or not willing to work on. Eros in Leo is self worship or perhaps in opposition to Neptune in Aquarius where we are deluded in our beliefs and worship others either personally or in leadership roles.

In order to synthesize the above aspects or any aspects we would need to find the truth that lies somewhere in the middle. There is a point between duality that exits in order to synthesize the energies. Finding that third point elevates the issue to a physical structure, the triangle. Based upon Buckminister Fuller all triangles are the strongest rengenerating structure of the universe. So it would seem appropriate that synthesizing energy is the ability to transform our life. The astrology for year end is asking us where we are in our integrity to the true worth of self.

While surfing the net I came upon some writings of Stephen Pugh and his astrological work with the 7 Rays. I contacted him and he directed me to his facebook page on Astrosynthesis.

Stephen’s work is based on the writings of the Tibetan, Djwah Khul and esoteric astrology. Astrology that is based upon the spiritual evolution of man. Stephen had a clip of Roberto Assagioli and I was curious to learn about his humanistic approach to life. Thank you Stephen for your work!

Roberto Assagioli was the founder of Psychosynthesis. He pioneered the field of humanistic and transpersonal psychology. As quoted from Wikpedia
His work emphasized the possibility of progressive integration of the personality around its own essential Self through the use of the will.
His work is based upon a holistic approach to psychology which is inclusive of higher values which he felt was necessary to the function and integrity of the whole person. In a rare interview Assagioli discusses the art of recognizing the individual cell as a completed form unto itself. If the liver cells function specifically to the liver then they support the greater system by being organic to themselves.

I feel that we as individuals must operate and function wholly unto ourselves in order to serve the greater purpose. Our level of thought becomes clouded if we are unsure of our worth or purpose, then we feel drawn to others in an effort to define ourselves. We are no longer acting from our integrity. Eventually we will have to return to the origins of false belief in order to clear up the issues of lack so we can function fully on our own.

Buddhists believe to be independent of all actions of others in order to sustain the self. This enables their service to be based on pure intentions and they are free to serve their purpose at all times.

Creating relationships to others as in the example of cells within our bodies can also be viewed from a planetary perspective. Respectively, Mars, Venus etc are in relationship to other planetary bodies in the sky and still maintain the full integrity of what they represent. It is in relationship to the other planets that enables the support of a larger galactic environment and sustains universal principles through action.

When I am out of integrity to myself I am lost to who I really am and therefore unable to know my true purpose. I am reacting from an expectation, according to the attachment I have created instead of acting from who I am in relationship to that person. If I remain in reactive mode then I am circling round the same patterns and no growth can be accomplished. The spiraling aspects of growth and regeneration can be activated once I am able to realign my true integrity within. This shift could feel disorienting as we energetically pull ourselves out of another’s field. Each person has to renegotiate the space and environment that they were used to living in. Can we do this without harming?

While I was putting together these thoughts my son serendipitously came in the room to tell me of an interesting passage he was reading on integrity. I think it fits perfectly here. During the time of the 12 Caesars, the roman army would conduct morning inspections. Each soldier had to strike the armor (hmm close to amour) on his chest over his heart and shouted Integritas! Which in latin meant wholeness, completeness and entirety. The armor had to be strong to protect any arrows or blows to the heart.

During the same time there was an imperial bodyguard coming into power and they were no longer required to shout “Integritas” to signify that their armor was sound. Instead they struck their chests and shouted “Hail Caesar”. As the author states,”they had armored themselves to serve the cause of a single man”.

No longer whole unto himself we become divided. The art of life is the synthesizing aspects of ourselves to become whole again. No longer divided against the self we have clarity to identify that which no longer serves us in an effort to serve.
