Aspects of changing

Tuesday, June 18, 2024

5:40 a.m. Several possible places to continue:

  1. Judging by our intent rather than by our actions seems backwards.
  2. “As you change your mind, you change your effective being.”
  3. The mechanism for internal readjustment.

Your choice, guys.

All good questions. Shows you are paying attention, not merely transcribing.

  1. Judging by intent rather than by actions seems backwards.  Yes, it is backwards from how you naturally judge things when you regard 3D as real and non-3D as theoretical at best. And the same point of view would see the moment as transitory and the effects as at least relatively permanent. But do you want to see your lives from outside, or not? If you do, you must at least temporarily lay down your accustomed judgments.

It is very true that the road to hell is paved with good intentions – if you look at life from 3D assumptions. The saying means, merely intending change sometime in the future is the same as clinging to what you already are, for the present.

It is – as so often – the difference in meaning concealed within the use of the same word for different things. “Good intentions” sounds like “sustained intent,” but of course they are very different things. Sustained intent has nothing vague about it, nothing of delay. And it is your sustained intent that leads you to the future you pull toward yourself, for the astrological moment cannot be modified; the only thing that can be modified is your attitude toward “what happens” around you, your sustained intent.

The difference is very clear as you spell it out. Thanks.

2. “As you change your mind, you change your effective being.” We have replaced our previous scaffolding of “laying down some strings, picking up others.” Now we would have you think of it as less material an analogy, less concrete. You are a complex balance of internal dynamics, affected not only by your initial “setting” (determined by your physical and non-physical heredity and the astrological moment and social environment), but also by your intent. In a sense, you decide how to intervene in your own life. You choose among your possibilities.

Yes, that is clear now too.

  1. The mechanism for internal readjustment. The question is, how does this occur? How do you turn intent into change?

And I have no idea where you want to go with this one.

Actually, you didn’t have much idea of the two previous, either. You forget what you didn’t know, usually as soon as you now know it. You didn’t know, then you knew, then you disremember the earlier state of not knowing. It’s normal. But this third question is unexplored territory, which is why you feel blank, approaching it.

Some bullet points:

  • You comprise all those strands, each of which is a complex energetic pattern, each of which – if acting by itself – would replicate in you the pattern it established in the life it leads elsewhen.
  • But they don’t act by themselves. They inter-act, smoothly or otherwise. Your internal life, your impulses and compulsions and contradictions and confusions, all stem from the fact that you are living all those pattens simultaneously in every new moment.
  • There is a hidden problem here. Each of those strands exists within you as it existed at a given moment, at death, which was the culmination of that life. That is the pattern. But nothing is frozen, so as that life changes, the pattern you are partly made of changes. How?
  • The astrology of your life clearly can’t be the astrology of the various strands’ lives. They’ll all be different., from you and from each other. The living present moment that each is experiencing will have a quality different from any other. How can all this be reconciled?
  • Only your intent can reconcile the various clashing or meshing energetic patterns. And the same is true for each of the strands. Is it astonishing that the 3D world is full of conflict? What ought to astonish is that it has as much harmony as it does have.
  • Bear in mind, the result is not chaos meaning shapeless, meaningless disorder, but chaos meaning infinite potential expressing in all possible combinations.

And everything boils down to free will exercised within a given framework that itself changes and is changed by the free will of others.

Circumstances are often, perhaps always, produced by others. Your part is always to choose, and of course in choosing you are changing the circumstances for all you connect to in any way, 3D or non-3D.

It’s a little dizzying.

Some time spent pondering will bring you along. Merely the readjustment from physical or energetic analogies would be an advance, freeing up your understanding.

So what can you tell us about the Gates of Horn?

Nothing. Do the work, observe the results, and at some point it will be profitable to talk about it. At this point it would be front-loading.

At any point, it’s going to be front-loading for somebody.

Just mind yourself; that’s your true business. As usual, people will come to it at the proper time for them. Those who come to it before-time will not notice; it will make no impression on them. Perhaps three years later, at the proper moment, it will sink in.

I am feeling we have left too much unaddressed on this third question.

That is true, but it seems best. There’s time. And no harm in a slightly shorter session.

Very well. Next time?

It will have to emerge on the moment.

Thanks as always, then.
