Study War No More

Dear Friend:

Here we are - Spaceship Earth has arrived in Zone 2012. Orbiting our guardian Star, the Sun, at 67,000 miles per hour we continue the Waltz Without End around Galactic Centre, in the company of the other 350 Million  known Galaxies, who are performing a similar feat, wheeling mightily, floating blissfully, through Time and Space. All upon the Wheel of the Cosmic Potter.

  Meanwhile in Jakarta, Indonesia, thousands of people live in shacks and shanties, combing through the great heaps of a colossal Landfill site in order to make a bare living, while, over the wall, a comparative few live in considerable luxury and privilege (did you see that BBC TV.programme yesterday?).

 Much the same, in varying scales, the whole World over.

OK - we come to this Planet to learn - "The Hard Way" - but, surely, it time for a change of Syllabus ?

 Together, we are "working on it"....We hope to see the old Pyramids and Hierarchies of power be transformed into Circles of Friendship. If it can be conceived in the mind, it can be born in actuality.
The Quakers, or Society of Friends, have an excellent working model  - I recommend finding out more about this for yourself

 Planet Mars, in the current phase of the Cosmic Dance, is taking a twirl Backward,- in Retrograde motion from 24 January to 14 April 2012. Traditionally, while Mars is Retrograde, it is wise to defer any major decisions until he/it turns Direct in motion, and even better to wait until Mars leaves the Retrograde Loop altogether  on 19 June - from then 'til the end of that month looks Very Interesting, Astrologically: more detail in a subsequent blog on this stirring time .
 However - if you MUST take a major step of some kind during that period, then go ahead - and trust the Spirit to guide, inform  and accompany you ..
 "The Stars Impel, they do not Compel", remember.

 Incidentally, NOT a good time to initiate a War - Presidents and Potentates please take note. Or at any time, actually, - how about beating those Swords into Ploughshares . Drones into Solar Panels.Bombs into Bread: - that kind of thing..
