NorthPoint Astrology Journal Your weekly guide to planetary influences November 9 to 15, 2020 by Pam Younghans Aspects of Note This Week   All times listed are Pacific Daylight Time. For Greenwich Mean Time, add 7 hours.    MON: Venus opposite Mars, Sun trine Neptune TUE: Mercury enters Scorpio, Mercury trine Ceres WED: Mars semisquare Ceres, Venus quincunx Neptune 4:30 p.m. THU: Sun sesquiquadrate Chiron, Jupiter conjunct Pallas Athene, Pluto conjunct Pallas Athene, Jupiter conjunct Pluto FRI: Mercury sesquiquadrate Neptune, Mars stations direct SAT: Sun sextile Pluto, Sun sextile Jupiter, New Moon 9:07 p.m. PDT SUN: Mercury quincunx Chiron, Sun sextile Pallas Athene   OUR JOURNEY through 2020 has been rocky, to say the least. Physically, emotionally, and spiritually, we have been challenged at every turn.   Many of this year's most life-altering twists and turns can be linked to alignments involving Pluto. We began 2020 with the Saturn-Pluto conjunction on January 12, which was when the world initially became aware of the novel coronavirus and great divisiveness was playing out on the political stage. This was the opening act in the drama that has been unfolding ever since, with its ensuing scenes powerfully defined by alignments between Jupiter and Pluto.   THE FIRST Jupiter-Pluto conjunction occurred on April 4, as fears about the virus peaked and we went into global lock-down. The next Jupiter-Pluto event was on June 29, as the second wave of COVID-19 was building worldwide, and rage against injustice also reached a peak.   This coming week, we have the third and final conjunction between these two planets. Once again, the trend on the COVID-19 charts is sharply upward. This resurgence of the virus, along with social and political tensions, are leading humanity to another crisis point.   THIS FINAL conjunction between Jupiter and Pluto is made all the more powerful in that it exactly aligns with the asteroid Pallas Athene, named for the goddess of Wisdom and War. This strong feminine influence could indicate a woman coming into power on the physical plane, as well as the Divine Feminine working with us on the metaphysical planes.   Also of note is that this conjunction perfects at the same degree – and almost the same arc minute – as January's Saturn-Pluto event. (The Saturn-Pluto conjunction was at 22°46′ Capricorn; this Jupiter-Pluto conjunction occurs at 22°51′ Capricorn.) This is just another sign that events this week are powerfully related to the larger evolutionary shift underway, which is requiring the deconstruction of old social and political forms.   BUT THIS is about much more than only managing and surviving the external events. Pluto's job, as the Psychotherapist Planet, is to reveal and transmute negative energy. One of Jupiter's tasks, as the largest planet in our known solar system, is to exaggerate and magnify. The three alignments between these two planets are corresponding with great waves of negative emotion in mass consciousness, which must be transmuted if humanity is to evolve into its higher expression.    The first alignment in March/April brought forth a Wave of Fear. The second, in June/July, provoked a Wave of Anger and Rage. The third, peaking this week, might be described as eliciting a Wave of Distrust and Blame, or even Hatred.   THIS WEEK, as at each of these critical junctures, it is up to each of us individually to be aware of how we hold those misqualified emotions in our own energy field, and to do the work to transmute those emotions. We must first acknowledge the feelings rather than pretending they do not exist, and accept our own humanness. Then, we must likewise realize our Divinity, which enables us to be more than simply human.   This work of transmutation can be done on many levels and in many ways. We can use techniques that allow us to express any repressed emotions in a safe way, and then call in light or the violet flame to move through and help clear the debris from our individual field, and the quantum field as well. We also can use the vibration of sound or color to assist us in releasing lower-frequency emotions. One of the keys to doing this successfully is not to attach to or label the emotions, but simply to allow them to process and release.   Whatever methods work best for you, now is the time to use them. We are not yet past the time of challenges. Jupiter and Pluto are doing the work of revealing humanity's shadow. As workers for the Light, we are called to do the work of transmuting the negative emotions that arise, for ourselves and for the collective.   ADDING to the complex energies, we have a long list of other aspects that will also perfect this week – too many to fully describe here, given all that is going on! I'll do my best to post on Facebook during the week about the ones that seem most important.   But, I do want to talk about two other significant events that are also on this week's agenda: Mars going direct and the Scorpio New Moon.   MARS has been retrograde in Aries since September 9. Over these past two months, while outer progress may have seemed slow and tedious, we have been called to do much work on inner levels. Mars retrograde is a time for us to realign our energies, and obstacles have shown where our desires were not fully in sync with higher purposes.   If we have done this work of realignment, we will start to see more progress once Mars goes direct on Friday. But for most of the coming week, even though Mercury is now direct, we should expect a few more delays in the realization of our desires.   THE NEW MOON occurs on Saturday, November 14, at 9:07 p.m. PST. The Sun and Moon will conjoin at 23°17′ Scorpio, and will be in strong aspect to many of the other planets. These include close sextiles to Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, and Pallas Athene; a tight quincunx to dwarf planet Eris; and a loose trine to Neptune.   Many of these aspects are very positive and supportive, indicating a true "new beginning" is possible, especially with Mars having gone direct the day before. I especially like the trine to Neptune, which will help us be in compassion and also trust in the Divine Plan.   BUT we can't ignore the hard aspect to Eris, which indicates a potential disruption in the proceedings. Remember that the primary myth of Eris tells of her tossing a golden apple into a wedding party, an act that precipitated responses that eventually led to the Trojan War.   With Eris involved in the New Moon chart, we can expect that this new lunar cycle will be quite eventful – especially since it marks the beginning of eclipse season, with our Full Moon on November 30 also being a Solar Eclipse.   Eris continues to be a strong influence throughout the rest of the month, due to being exactly square Jupiter and Pluto next week. More on that influence in the next Journal.    10 DAYS AND COUNTING: My "Paradigm Shift" webinar is on November 19! (See class description below.)

As we enter the closing weeks of this incredible year, we look to the planets to see what they can reveal about our next steps.   On the not-so-distant horizon is a very new energy: the much-anticipated Jupiter-Saturn alignment in Aquarius, which will perfect on Solstice Day, December 21. Although Jupiter and Saturn align every 20 years, this is the first alignment in Aquarius since the year 1405. It represents a significant paradigm shift for humanity, as well as a major impulse of energy into each of our individual lives.   In this class, we’ll talk in greater detail about that Jupiter-Saturn alignment and consider its effects, both globally and personally. We’ll also look beyond the immediate horizon and into 2021. We’ll explore the possible manifestations and higher purposes of the Saturn-Uranus square that accompany us throughout the year, as well as the ongoing effects of the dynamic Pluto-Eris square that has already stirred much social change. Adding another layer to our understanding of what's ahead, we’ll also touch on the six eclipses – half of which are powerful Total Eclipses – that will occur from now through the end of 2021.   Please join us!

Along the way, you may need to adjust your expectations for immediate gratification, for this is a process rather than an event. As you work to align your will with the higher will, you are supported in creating the new forms that will best represent your higher mission.

When you feel at one with another, fear, conflict, and distrust dissolve.

Saul Audio Blog for Tuesday November 27th

Change is in the air, in fact enormous changes and revelations are shortly to be unveiled, as humanity progresses most effectively towards the moment of its grand awakening.  Your awakening has always been God’s Will for you, and God’s Will, the divine Will, in fact humanity’s Will – your collective will since the unreal but very real seeming separation experience commenced – is One Will and It is always achieved.  There are no exceptions!


Of course many of you ask and continue to ask:  “If God is Love, and His Will is for us to be happy, then why is there so much pain and suffering in the world?”  Hard as it is for you to understand and accept, the One Will, your collective Will and God’s for all is that you experience eternal JOY!  That is Reality!  What you are experiencing, and seem to have been experiencing for eons – judgment, blame, conflict, pain, and suffering – is illusory.  Yes, the pain and suffering is very convincing, and seems totally real because your physical form, the human body, has senses and feelings incorporated within it to enable it to take care of itself and enjoy life.  And this sensitivity comes at a price – you have a saying “There is no such thing as a free lunch!” – and that price is the ability to feel pleasure and pain, happiness and suffering.  Your bodies are sensitive instruments through which consciousness experiences the unreality of separation from Source, momentarily.


The experience of separation was but a momentary sensation, but it seems to have been ongoing for thousands of millennia.  In Reality there is only Love – which includes peace, contentment, happiness, caring, cooperation, harmony – and what you experience as humans that is not of Love is unreal, even though it seems very real.  Most of you identify almost wholeheartedly with your bodies, with your human forms, and the feelings and sensations that they undergo.  However, when you go within in meditation, contemplation, or just relaxation, and your “roof-brain chatter” reduces or even ceases for a while, you do find yourselves at peace with yourselves in self-acceptance.


Suffering is due to your thoughts and the judgments and blaming that goes with them.  That is what the sense of separation is all about.  When you feel at one with another – your partner, spouse, children, in a loving relationship – fear, conflict, and distrust dissolve.  And if you are in physical, mental, or emotional pain due to illness or damage to your bodies, or for emotional or psychological reasons, being in the presence of loved ones frequently eases it.  That is what relationship is all about – being one, being lovingly supported, knowing that you are not alone.  That knowing, that inner sense of belonging, being at home, loved, and accepted is what everyone seeks.  And, of course, That is Reality!  That is where you are in every moment of your eternal existence, you have just temporarily lost access to conscious awareness of it.


To be separated from Love, from Source is unbearable.  And that can never happen.  But as separate individual humans, it does seem that you are separate, alone, isolated from everyone else.  You all dream when you sleep, and sometimes your dreams are horrific and terrifyingly real, and sometimes they are dull, unmemorable, and sometimes they can be fun, exciting, and uplifting.  Then you wake up, and they are no more because they were unreal, and very quickly you forget them totally.  Well, separation, as you are experiencing it as humans in form, is also a dream, it is unreal, and you will wake up.  And, as with dreams, all memory of separation will also fade away when that happens, and you will find yourselves once more, where you have always been, at One with Source, and in utter Joy.


You are all aware that enormous change is occurring, even though you are unable to identify quite what it is that is changing.  You feel it, and you know that it is happening.  And, at the same time, as more “stuff” arises to be dealt with both in yourselves and in others with whom you are in communication, life can be, and is for some, very uncomfortable and very unsettling.  Just accept that what is happening is a necessary and unavoidable aspect of the awakening process.


Most of you have experienced unwanted change in your lives, change that may have arrived suddenly and unexpectedly, therefore you all tend to be wary of change.  Many plan their lives to avoid change, but truly change is unavoidable in the unreal separated state that you experience as humans.  So, instead of worrying about what might happen next to upset or unsettle you in your individual lives . . . CELEBRATE, because you are going to wake up from the dream of separation into the utter joy of Oneness, and deep within yourselves you do know this.  Yes, most of you have forgotten who you are, but the veil of forgetfulness is to be removed, and amazement and joy will permanently replace that temporary but terrifying unawareness of who you really are.


Go within every single day without fail, and momentarily throughout the day as occasions allow, and connect with Love, with Source, with Mother/Father/God who is always present there waiting to embrace you and help you feel the complete acceptance that is your right and your heritage.  You are divinely loved, always, and nothing can ever change that.


With so very much love, Saul.

Survey: You’ll Never Guess What Americans Are Most Afraid Of… February 24, 2016 by Dane Arr | Prepare for Change

FEAR of GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION surpassed FEAR OF TERRORISM! I guess people ARE waking up, in their own way...~PB

Survey: You’ll Never Guess What Americans Are Most Afraid Of…February 24, 2016 by Dane Arr | Prepare for Change

(Truthstream Media)  Out of 88 potential horrors this batch of 1,500+ Americans were asked to rank in regard to their personal level of fear in 2015, you’ll never guess what the number one thing people are most afraid of in this country…


Or perhaps you will.


Americans are more afraid of their own corrupt government than ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING ELSE including death, rape, murder, nuclear war, pandemics, terrorism, zombies, and even clowns.


What an amazingly sad statement on modern America and the times we are living in.


The survey can be found here.


Americans Deepest Fears


Are Americans today afraid of criminals with guns or a government that would seek to disarm its citizens?


The impositions of the system now rank higher among worry than hyped factors like terrorism – with distrust at very high levels among citizens and consumers alike. People are becoming disconnected from the wealth and prosperity they once knew, and instead are facing a collapsing system that wishes to loot from its populace as the ship goes down.


Dearly held rights in the American tradition are under threat today of vanishing, of being upended by a machine with secret designs.


Corporate schemers, conniving bankers and corrupt government insiders are driving perpetual wars, a damaged economy, disappearing jobs and diminishing chances of achieving the American dream.

Turn towards the Light which will never reject you. 04/28/2014 by John Smallman

Turn towards the Light which will never reject you.
04/28/2014 by John Smallman

"All are One. You all know that, you accept it as a basic fact or concept, and then you dismiss it from your minds as you go about your daily affairs. But you need to make it a part of yourselves, an aspect of yourselves that you carry in your conscious awareness at all times, otherwise it remains as meaningless to you as any field of study of which you have only vague knowledge and that holds no interest for you; an idea that is unimportant and is therefore readily dismissed and forgotten.

The fact that all are One is an aspect of Reality that you cannot afford to dismiss off-handedly, and as of no interest, while you go about your daily routines. Awareness of it needs to be an important and distinctive characteristic of your personal field of sentient consciousness. If you shut it out of your awareness then you are putting yourselves on auto-pilot, allowing your egos to rule your attitudes and behaviors, as the real You, the eternal part that is One with Source takes a nap. Then later, maybe, it becomes apparent that something strange has happened and you find yourself struggling with issues and conflicts that are quite disturbing, and wondering what could have caused them.

Then ego suggests to you that nothing untoward has happened that it cannot cope with on your behalf, so you bury the cares that disturbed you in your unconscious, that vast dump where so much junk, gathered and disposed of over the years, festers and grows rancid. But eventually that junk dump is going to make its presence felt, and you will have to deal with it. In fact for many of you now, all that buried and denied garbage is blasting its way into your awareness causing you considerable discomfort.

When you find yourselves experiencing long forgotten painful memories just allow them to flow, like the weather they will pass, do not judge them or yourselves, but if you find yourselves unable to resist doing so, then forgive yourselves afterwards. Remind yourselves yet again that the environment that you appear to inhabit is illusory, as are all the pain, sufferings, conflicts, and betrayals. You are, and always will be, the beloved children of God created perfect – not your bodies which are basically ego-driven vehicles in which you are riding – and therefore remaining eternally perfect. Those memories, however painful, are part of the games of separation that you have been playing, and are unreal. When you awaken they will be gone.

However, while you remain within the illusory world of distrust, suffering, and betrayal, forgiveness is your steadfast and constant ally. Practice it, become adept. Your ego’s shrill protests that you either need to feel intense guilt for what you have done, or that you need to be recognized and compensated for wrongs done to you are distractions that attempt to divert you from your path to awakening. Reality is a state in which only Love is present, and by forgiving you divest yourselves of all that is in opposition to It, of all the judgments and anxieties to which you are clinging in fear and anger, thus clearing your hearts so that Love may enter.

When ancient issues, long since buried and only faintly remembered, seem to overwhelm you remind yourselves that they are coming up for release, and not as a punishment for bad behavior to fill you with guilt. Feelings of unworthiness, for instance, that you use as a cloak or veil under which to hide because you believe that Love, God, your Father would reject or shame you if you entered into His presence. Ask your friends in the spiritual realms – whoever is your favorite saint, angel, guide, or mentor – to help you to feel the field of Love in which you are eternally held safe and secure. When you ask for this, when you seek to know that you are dearly loved, you release some of the blocks to Love and allow It to flow through you once again bringing you peace and certainty of your divine connection. It is a bit like aerating stagnant water to refresh and revitalize it. However, allowing Love to flow through your hearts, even if only temporarily as you take a break from your feelings of guilt and unworthiness, is far more uplifting and invigorating.

The distractions of the illusion consistently draw your attention to all that is unloving – distrust, deceit, corruption, hardship, etc. – and when you focus there fear and helplessness can easily overwhelm you. But you are coming Home, you are going to awaken into Reality; it is inevitable, unavoidable, and for that give thanks, and then focus your attention there, tell yourself: “I am going to awaken!” Deep within yourself you do know this, so to reaffirm it is a most valuable exercise in preparation for this inevitable, imminent, and awesome event.

You are dearly loved, you always have been, and you always will be. However, momentarily, the truth of that eludes you, and so we in the spiritual realms are constantly reminding you, bringing that truth back into your awareness through myriad channeled messages, and by giving you a loving squeeze when you make contact with us during your periods of prayer, contemplation, or meditation.

You have not been abandoned, left alone, forgotten. That could never happen. But you have allowed yourselves to become very deeply immersed in the unreal and nightmarish world of the illusion, and it is from that you are to awaken. Forgiveness is an essential part of your awakening process because it frees you of the guilt and shame with which you have so heavily burdened yourselves, giving you the courage and the desire to turn towards the Light instead of feeling afraid of it and turning away to avoid rejection.

Fear of rejection is a major aspect of the illusion with which many of you are dealing almost constantly, and within the illusion you do experience it. However, like all aspects of the illusion it is unreal! You are all divine beings eternally and infinitely loved and embraced by God, and that can never change. So turn towards the Light which will never reject you, wake up, and rejoice in the wonder of knowing yourselves once more as you truly are.

With so very much love, Saul."
