Dimensions

You may have noticed the sudden upsurge of interest in 3D films and television programmes- you need a pair of 3D specs, then, off you go on a voyage into the additional dimension. Our "normal" perception of the world is, of course , 3-dimensional, via our two, if properly functioning, eyes. With a developed , or developing "third eye" function, then, we are able to "see into" the 4th Dimension.
I mention this partly because of the burgeoning awareness that the year 2012 will soon be "with us", with all the attendant speculation as to what that might imply for us all. It is possible that we may have the opportunity, though not necessarily in 2012, to "shift" or "ascend" into the 4th, or even 5th Dimension, where money is irrelevant, where the discomforts and fond deceits of the material world have no purchase upon us, and where the soul is free to travel where it will .
A realm, in fact, not unlike the place we go when we "die". Is this what St. Paul means when he says that "we shall not die, but shall all be changed in the twinkling of an eye..." ? I've got that more or less right- remembered from Sunday School circa 1958, Cornwall.

The 3D craze could be a manifestation of the Collective Unconscious, then, in anticipation of the opportunity to come - the 4D, or 5D world: -roll up for your viewing specs now!

While on this subject, there will be a "2012 Forum" to be held at Lupton House , Brixam Road, Churston Ferrers, on Thurs. 3 Dec. , 7.00 to 9.30 p.m. £5.admission. facilitated by Sue Minns. With input from Dr. Grahame Blackwell (Scientist), Anne Bruce (Shamanic perspective) and myself (Astrological view.). A chance to give the subject a good public airing - and bring Light to(what may be) the lost souls of an ancient atmospheric "ton"/settlement.

Experience with, and participation in Quaker Meetings over many years has confirmed in me the knowing that there are many things that, with the conscious mind, we do not know and cannot guess.Yet to sit quietly in the hope and anticipation that the Inward Light , with gentle power, will illuminate the path, is, as many have found, a tolerable and spiritually refreshing practice which brings undefinable, yet unmistakeable blessings. May we hope for similar understanding regarding the 2012 syndrome...

Forgive me, if you will, while I run the following Ad.;- If you need a Birthchart, set up, interpreted, I have plenty of experience in that department. Cost £60. Update on Chart (Transits, Progressions)- £45. A session with Tarot £35(negotiable). Please enquire about other Astrological services - including Synastry, Astro-location, Tuition, Workshops. etc. My phone no. - 01803 867145.
Incidentally, I know we/some of us once made the solemn pledge to live in a condition of Poverty, Chastity and Obedience ( in that other life)... but reason to rethink the whole position now, especially the Poverty bit...at least, until the 4th Dimension "arrives". Meanwhile, we here, at what has become a small but active "centre", wish to express appreciation and thanks to all the friends and clients who have supported and encouraged in so many ways us over the last 12 years or so, and continue so to do.

Address;- 6, Plymouth Road, Totnes, Devon, England. TQ9 5PH.

Glastonbury Phoenix

As I write, the "Media" is buzzing with the news that the Lisbon treaty will now almost certainly remain unchallenged, and the EC moves into another stage of integration. A study of the original EEC chart for 00.00 hrs. 1 Jan. 1958, Brussels, with accompanying Transits and Progressions will describe this development, so, no surprise to the Astrologically inclined.The next session of Totnes Astrology at 6 Plymouth road, Totnes, at 7.30 p.m. on Fri. 13 Nov. will explore this issue, along with The Saturn/Pluto Squares; and, charts and inspiring concepts connected with Chalice Well in Glastonbury, a place I know well (no pun intended) through past association.

Any arrangement, political or otherwise, which has material rather than spiritual concerns and values at the very core of it's philosophy, may prove in the long run to be seriously deficient in both Light and bouyancy- how long can it run? A water source such as Chalice Well can pour forth its blessings until the end of Time; simple, natural, freely given to all who thirst.The same can rarely be said of Man's constructions. Abbott Whiting of Glastonbury, the last holder of that office, standing on the summit of the Tor, awaiting execution by the order of Henry the Eigth, on a dark November morning in 1539 may have similar thoughts.Confined the previous night in a small room over the Abbey Gatehouse he had, I can sense, been visited, in his desolation by an Angel, or comforting Spirit, and received much comfort and reassurance concerning the Future- his own, and that of his beloved Glastonbury.

He would, he knew, return in a new form to this, the plane of Earth, at a time of crisis and transformation, during and after which there would be a restitution of much that had been lost through the fear and greed of some of his fellow men. Consider the legend of the Phoenix, perhaps, as an apt metaphor for the era we now enter...

Meanwhile, in this year of the Jupiter/Neptune/Chiron conjunction in Aquarius the development and acknowledgement of many links and friendships far and wide continues. I can think of no better advice at this time than that of the Quaker, George Fox, to... "...walk cheerfully over the World, answering that of God in everyone."
