5th June 2020: Lunar Eclipse in 16th degree of Sagittarius: Courageous Hearts by Sarah Varcas

Sarah Varcus is one of my favorite Astrologers, I get great insights from her perspective. I don't read her enough, though she is generous with her free access to much of her work. ~PB

(p.s.) This speaks volumes to me:

"An alliance between Chiron, Uranus and Mercury at the time of this eclipse unlocks fresh perspectives. But to benefit from them we must reclaim the fundamental right to honour our own experience and not have it dismissed, ridiculed or silenced if it runs contrary to the received wisdom of the time. This takes courage in a world where people are being demonised and discredited for daring to question the ‘party line’ and reflect more deeply on the narrative they’re being fed. But if ever there was a time for courage it is now! Courageous thought, courageous speech, courageous hearts open to a new world in which we’re not told how things are but instead discern, through digesting many perspectives and listening, perhaps most importantly, to the voice within that knows truth."

5th June 2020: Lunar Eclipse in 16th degree of Sagittarius:
Courageous Hearts
by Sarah Varcas | Astro-Awakenings

This is the first of three eclipses this eclipse season, which also features a solar eclipse in Cancer on 21^st June 2020 and a lunar eclipse in Capricorn on 5^th July 2020.

All dates are UT

This lunar eclipse raises the issue of dependence and conditioning. In Sagittarius, it potentises the transfer of power away from the expert elite triggered by the North Node’s arrival in Gemini last month. Against the backdrop of recent unprecedented – and in some quarters hotly debated – social and interpersonal restrictions the world over, further compounded by protests and riots in the wake of George Floyd’s death at the hands of the US police, this eclipse cycle alerts us to a burgeoning shift of perspective, auguring an ever-increasing challenge to the authorities from people who have simply had enough.


The Sabian Symbol for the degree of this eclipse speaks of seagulls circling a ship in expectation of food. It’s fair to say this isn’t the most natural food source for seagulls, but it’s convenient and reliable. That’s why they do it. If you’ve ever eaten a sandwich on the beach you’ll know how quickly you become central to their quest for an easy meal and how easy it is to lead a flock of hungry birds down the beach if you wander off whilst eating!


These images convey a warning: if we make ourselves dependent upon a single supply (of anything), the source of that supply can control and lead us where it wants us to go before we even realise we’ve been led. Focused on the satisfaction and security of an easy meal we overlook the changing scenery and the distance developing between where we used to be and where we’ve wound up now. In Sagittarius we gain nourishment from information and learning, from broad concepts, highly sophisticated bodies of knowledge and honed expertise. Sagittarius is the sign associated with law, religion and medicine: three institutions that have shaped our modern world in many ways. This eclipse is an excellent time to reflect on how much power we’ve given them to determine what matters in our lives, and whether now might be the time to expand our perspective beyond what they want us to believe.


An alliance between Chiron, Uranus and Mercury at the time of this eclipse unlocks fresh perspectives. But to benefit from them we must reclaim the fundamental right to honour our own experience and not have it dismissed, ridiculed or silenced if it runs contrary to the received wisdom of the time. This takes courage in a world where people are being demonised and discredited for daring to question the ‘party line’ and reflect more deeply on the narrative they’re being fed. But if ever there was a time for courage it is now! Courageous thought, courageous speech, courageous hearts open to a new world in which we’re not told how things are but instead discern, through digesting many perspectives and listening, perhaps most importantly, to the voice within that knows truth.


Mercury is currently preparing to turn retrograde in Cancer on 18^th June 2020. Between this eclipse and that moment, we would do well to FEEL into what’s happening in our world right now. Let our intuition guide us towards an understanding that holds water in a deeper and more profound way. Once Mercury is retrograde, and as the next two eclipses occur, we’ll have the opportunity to recalibrate our internal knowing according to information that comes our way. But we can only do that if we give our intuition a platform from which to speak, and reclaim the power invested in the experts as they dictate what our experience should be.


As we stand at this juncture in human history there are weighty choices to be made and we must each make them as best we can. This eclipse season will both reveal the shadow side of readily accepted sources of information – hidden interests, inaccurate assumptions, covert agendas –  as well as illuminate in their wake new sources of knowledge previously eclipsed by the might of received wisdom and unquestioned ‘truths’. The path ahead remains scattered with obstacles and the battle for dominion over the collective mind continues unabated. This lunar eclipse is just the beginning and there is much to be revealed and digested before we can decide, collectively, the quality of our future.


Saturn is now retrograding through Aquarius before returning to Capricorn in July. You can read more about what this means for us in terms of freedom of thought and speech here. But as we encounter this eclipse we may well find stirring within, a more insistent demand for information that challenges the dominant narrative and a burgeoning need to forge alliances with others who sense a more pressing truth bubbling to the surface. For whatever’s going on in this world today, it is we the people, not the privileged elite with vested interests in our obedience to their cause, who can – and must – decide the shape our lives take from here.

Beautiful insights and practical advice! ~PB

How to be Woke in the Matrix | awakening5Dhealing
July 1, 2018 by  awakening5dhealing


We are energy. Our bodies vibrate energetically, this frequency is our signature wavelength. Our cellular vibration rolls out to our energy field. Our energy field extends out beyond our bodies. Our energy field acts like a shield protecting us, it also behaves like antennae or feelers checking out the energies in our environment and giving us information. The information we receive is processed as a sense. We sense good or bad energy fields around people and places. We may have a gut feeling something is not right, or our bodies may react with shaking and tremors to dark energy. Our intuition is the mouthpiece of our energy antennae. Information gathered is processed and translated into feelings, physiological responses and instinct.


Our heart can palpitate with anxiety when we ignore our gut feelings. Our systems go into overdrive when we refuse to listen to and respond to the information our energy field garners. Many who suffer from anxiety do so because they are ignoring their energetic information. Our mindbodyspirit systems are splintered by the sowing deep rooted seeds of self doubt causing loss of self respect. Eventually as time passes and we continue to ignore our instincts they get dumbed down. We become matrix zombies overwriting our intuition with conformity and conditioning. Mind control tools are used to lock us into narrow energetic spaces. Peer pressure is key to the matrix success. For some conformity is survival, for others it is a direct result of intense brainwashing.


Generally our ego gets confused and panicky when incoming vibrations are read by our energy field. Our ego is the matrix tool for control, the incessant voice in our head is heavily targeted and conditioned in our society. The ego will dismiss, mock, disregard and be highly suspicious of gut feelings, internal responses to external energy. Our ego, programmed from birth, will relentlessly tell us to fit in, to not rock the status quo or draw negative attention to ourselves. The ego will revel in childhood trauma, it’s commitment to self pity can be endless. The ego will undermine our mindbodysoul energetic connectivity every chance it gets. We can’t see energy therefore it can’t exist. The rational becomes the irrational and vice versa. Obeying rules and regulations that harm us physically, mentally or emotionally is deemed sensible and evolved. We rarely get a pat on the back for obedience but we know all about it when we challenge the upside down values of our slave society.


In a multi dimensional world where not everything can be seen or heard by terrestrial senses it is rational and logical to trust our gut, our intuition. It is common sense to listen to our internal radar for guidance navigating a quantum world where other realms interact with ours all the time. It is eminently sensible to reach out energetically to guides and angels in other realms who support and protect us. It is rational to be streetwise at all times in our lives. Streetwise means listening to all our senses and responding appropriately. Not walking down a dark alley, even though we are running late for a meeting and it’s a short cut, because our energy field senses danger. Be late for the meeting. Owning the sixth senses that help us navigate multi dimensional realities is prioritising our sensory awareness over hamster wheel expectations, peer pressure and conditioned conformity.


To redress this balance and promote our energetic processing beyond our scared, trained and vulnerable ego we meditate. Meditation quiets the ego. When Buddhism speaks of emptying the mind, it is the ego we need to hush. Nor the heart, not our energy field, third eye or any other instinctive information we get. The ego, is programmed to spin, to twist sensory information so it fits a narrow set of boundaries of what is acceptable or allowed in the matrix and what isn’t. When we get a bad feeling about something our ego will throw doubt on the feeling especially if what we are doing could be anti established expectations. The matrix induced trance state will override basic primal responses in us. It is up to us to take back our sovereignty by reprogramming our mindbodyspirit to love, light and expanded consciousness.


The elite need to control us and their key tool is fear. Fear lowers our vibration. Fear locks us into small easily manageable boxes, we do as we are told, we defer to the rulers, the elite or our trained ego, we relinquish our sovereignty willingly. We accept the established narratives we are alone in the universe, what you see is all that is there, the elite will take care of us. Ghosts, paranormal activity, ufos, fairies and all the other phenomena that has been spoken of and written about over the years is dismissed as our over active imagination, hoaxes or mental health problems. We are regularly told, literally, metaphorically and subliminally not to trust our gut, not to believe feelings or use them as a compass for our lives. Instead the tightly drawn parameters of life in the matrix, lockdown psychedelic expansion, fourth dimension paranormal investigation, ufo and alien interactions or any kind of open mindedness. Women will be labelled witchy and men unstable.


We may well be in some kind of simulation that operates at the lower end of third dimension vibratory fields. Nothing our eyes tell us can be trusted as our mind interprets visuals and our mind is heavily programmed. Everything our energy field tells us can be trusted. As usual it’s all upside down here. Trust your gut always. Trust your intuition always. Trust your heart every time. The matrix conditions us to disregard our energetic processing and information. It conditions us to associate sixth senses with witchcraft, hysterical women and old wives tales. We are trained to disregard our energetic senses. To stop and refuse to go into a place due to our sixth sense telling us it has bad energy, is a rebellious move in a sheeple world. The Matrix programmes us to believe only what we see and hear with our eyes and ears, to dismiss or ignore gut feelings, psychic hunches and physical responses. The reason for this is simple, control. In order to control us the elite feed us a limited picture of who we are and what our world is about. Usually dominated by a judgemental god, king or president, we police each other for the cabal. We dismiss energy, frequencies, vibration and sixth sensory information in deference to their rules.


Conditioned conformity comes in all shapes and sizes. It is our parents and families insisting we follow their religion when we have no interest whatsoever. Our education systems ignoring creativity and turning us into mindless machines able to recite timetables but with no true learning of what is to be a responsible human. It is hypocrisy when children are taught to share in a world of powerful adults who refuse to share. Conformity programmed into our appearance, our behaviour and our thought processes. Conformity is the enemy of freedom and sovereignty. We are reprimanded, punished and pushed out when we don’t conform, often by people we love. All of this pressure, conditioning and mind control causes us to doubt our instincts. The connection between us and energetic information is cut, blocked and cloaked in anxiety and fear.


When religion expects us to obey without question, spy on each other and worship divisive patriarchal gods, this is sheeple programming in action. When we override our physiological needs, our energetic responses are clouded in our weakened systems. When we are told we cannot be who we are because who we are doesn’t fit into our society, we are cutting the cords between our emotional, physical and spiritual selves. The cabal conquer and divide our mind, body and spirit. We no longer trust ourselves. We are broken. We look to the elite, those with the power to fix us, unaware it is they who have broken us. We are mass victims of mind control. Every single one of us. Through education, religion, mainstream cultural and subliminal programming our sovereignty is destroyed. Resulting in our inability or unwillingness to listen to and trust our mind body soul beings, our energetic antennae. We are vulnerable, malleable and easy to manipulate and control. Every day awakening people are forced to put their gut instincts, expanding consciousness and spiritual yearning for nourishment to the side. Dangerous to the established narrative of what our lives are supposed to be. We are policed by our own communities.


Whilst there can be love at the heart of some religions the packaging sadly can drain the positivity. Christianity has a long history of blood shed, power plays and paedophilia yet we are supposed to ignore all this and go to Mass like good boys and girls. Islam’s iridescent, expansive and kind beating heart has been shrouded in misogyny, conformity and fear. Women are subjugated, men are elevated and children are conditioned early on how to obey strict rules forcing us to override basic human rights. Freedom to choose who we love and marry. Freedom to feed and water our bodies adequately. There is no freedom in religions that curb basic instincts, promote division and misogyny and destroy our true sovereign connectivity to ourselves. Like politics and politicians the majority of organised religions rely on hate towards other religions to define their own. Clever psychological manipulation ensures we always have an enemy to fear and hate and a rescuer, god, president or priest who will protect our interests. All of it is lies, deception, power plays and population control. The irony that there is more authentic spirituality in hugging a tree than there is in the majority of the world’s religions surely points to strategy not coincidence.


Meditation is different from prayer. For many who pray as part of an organised religion the prayer is about idolising an external entity, god. Asking for forgiveness for being a bad human and guidance to be a good human. Meditation is the opposite. Meditation is quieting all voices, all rhetoric, all pre packaged information about us, the universe and everything. It is turning the volume up on our energy field. It is tuning into our energetic selves, going inside for self knowledge and cosmic expansion. Meditation is the activation of our chakras. It is moving our energetic centre away from the ego and down into our heart chakra. It is clearing and powering up the lines of communication between our chakras, from root to crown. It is grounding into our present with no fear of reprisal or punishment. It is to be reflective, contemplative, self loving and soul nourishing. When religious people label meditation devil’s work, sinister and suspicious they are being gas lighted. It is their religion that is devil’s work, sinister and suspicious. Meditation is stripping back the world to just us, as conscious, organic beings. There are no rules, no repercussions, it is us, our inner world and the cosmos.


Power over the global population is maintained by gas lighting, mind control techniques and mass sheeple programming. Everything is upside down. All is hidden in plain sight. Turn down the volume on the master controller in your head and tune up to your energy. Use meditation and mantras to do this. Sit quietly and repeat loving, calm mantras in your head till your tired and beleaguered ego is reassured enough to sleep. In the quiet that ensues listen. Listen to your gut. Listen to your heart. Listen to the universe. We can all be Neo. We can all break free and reset the dial on our lives. The world won’t change until we change in it. Be the rebel. Be the thinker. Be true to you. And if you can’t, if reprisal and punishment will come your way, meditate. Meditation is prayer for ourselves. Celebrate you, send love and thanks to you, stoke your own internal fire even if your world has no place for freedom. Be free inside. In love and light beautiful people.


Mantras
I share love, I receive love, I am love.
I am calm, joyful, at peace.
I open my third eye to the cosmos.
I power up my shield of light protecting me from all lower frequencies and vibrations.
I am love. Namaste.
