Still thinking...

So as I wrote last time I have been wondering about what makes people want to come see an astrologer, or not.  I have a sense that some people feel that there is someone out there who knows more about them, or what is going on with them than they do,  they want to be told what is in store for them.  But that is a misunderstanding of how things work.  If we look into the new paradigms in the various fields of new thought, with theorists like David Bohm, Fritjof Capra, Pierre de Chardin, Rupert Sheldrake, Stanislav Grof, and Brian Swimme whose work present a new understanding of the nature of reality, we can see that they are all disputing the orthodox scientific view of the duality in nature.  Instead of the subject, object view all these writers present more unified world views, a more holistic view of the nature of reality where there is an interconnectedness of all phenomena.  This world view that we will explore in this blog is very much what Marcus Aurelius wrote in the quote from Meditations from the 1st Century on my blog head.

And the planetary correlations- the planet Mercury, the planet of thought and communication, although retrograde and as a result of being retrograde, will meet up 3 times with  Jupiter, the planet of the philosopher and our belief system. During the time period from mid March through mid May we should all be thinking about our belief systems.  It is a time to expand how we think and what our perceptions and perspectives are;  what we believe to be true about our world and the nature of reality. There is ample time to reflect and we might find we will change our position.  Because all this is happening in the sign Aries, the sign of new beginnings,  we should all be looking for a new approach.
