Navigating the vibrational up's and down's.

[honey]

Hi everyone,

I've been experiencing some unsettling vibrational up's and downs over the last few months. Not surprising I guess given our current situation. Even though the vaccination programme, has supposidly made things safer - better! Strangely,  I find I am more easily unsettled now then I was in the beginning. As a carer, I never did stop working. And at times it was frightening, especially at the start. But you just got on with it. People still needed care. And their isolation, made our visits even more important. (I'm a community carer. Have bike, will travel)  I find my anxiety levels are higher now, then they were then. It is not so much to do with my work, but on a more personal, inter-relationship sense. Is anyone else experiencing similar?

Love and light
Karen

It is hard for me personally to say how I feel since my life was turned upside down 2 years ago anyways. But then the unexpected also precluded even a hint of boredom! I do fret my life is not longer stable and of course the world - partly due to the pandemic - is coincidentally the same.

Or is it a coincidence ?

I remember doing "trash picking" years ago and you would not believe the things I found tossed out that I rescued from the dump. But some days were off and other were a tad short of amazing! To this day I wonder if there was some telepathic mind set that everyone was going to do spring house cleaning that week and put it out on the curb.

All I know is our human controlled world never did work perfectly. We put too much faith in it. It was almost like the calm before the storm. Now things are getting nasty. But for the first time in my life I am able to read people's body language easy and I am becoming a little bit empathic. It is at times very upsetting to me. What I sense.

But there is no going back ...

Hi hi Karen,

I think it is energies the world is going through. My understanding of Astrology forces makes it understandable but doesn't make it totally enjoyable to deal with theses transformative clashes of opposing energy forces at play. The big one this year has been the Saturn square Uranus hitting three times over 2021. Saturn represent the structures, the old ways, the status quo and the past but also represents isolation's, suffering and pain.   It is being square to Uranus which represents the new, the unexpected, very electric and revolutionary at times. Uranus can effect people's nervous system and can activate anxiety in some especially if theses planets are aspecting one's own birth chart. We have a Full Moon coming in a few days intensifying the process. The third and final time the two planets of Saturn and Uranus square will happen around Christmas time.  Numerologicaly we are in a 5 universal year, so the overwhelming theme of this year is unexpected changes at times.

  HI George... i see you wrote also here now before  I finished my posting to Karen.

Hi Karen,
I don't think we've communicated before, but I could well be wrong.

Charlie described the energies of the times perfectly which would possibly be contributing to your sense of anxiety and tension.
If you have Saturn and Uranus touching your own planets it would be having an even bigger impact than that felt generally by many people - see the global crises as an example.

I too am feeling high levels of anxiety and having health problems as a result because, like you, it's affecting my relationships.

The Saturn influence of wanting stability and control is being rocked by Uranus' determination to make change happen and, as I understand it, resistance is futile which makes us feel as if we don't know which way to turn......back to how it has been or forward into uncharted territory.

From my limited knowledge Uranus will usually win because its influence is for change and soul growth which is the purpose of us being here.

Sending understanding hugs and hoping you find your way to what you need to know for your own growth and peace.

Hi George, Ace & Hera,

Thank you all so much for your responses. It is kind of reassuring to know that there is a reason for the anxiety and emotional high's and low's I've been experiencing. And it is also good to know that I am not alone in feeling the way I do Hera. We have spoken before. I think we have spoken when I posted under the name Sparklekaz. That account was closed to me, so I rejoined under another name. Honey, was my much loved late dog's name.

We have had so much change over the last 2 years, I guess, it shouldn't surprise me that the planets plan more for us. I suppose if nothing else, the last couple of years have shown us in a very powerful way, that things do not stay the same. Perhaps we had become complacent. The illusion of security is just that an illusion. Maybe the only certainty is that change is enevitable. We either accept it and go with it, or we hang on to what is familiar and have change forced upon us. For myself, I'm having to deal with a lot of issues that I'd suppressed. Wasn't the right time to deal with them. I'm sensing now, having read your posts, that the universe has decided now is the time, and the planetary influences are forcing them to the surface. Hence my anxiety. I am getting help with it. So maybe the message I am hearing now is 'don't resist, go with it'. It's necessary!

Its so good to talk on here.. I have missed it.

Love and light
Karen

HI Hera, Honey, George

More about Uranus.. if it is aspecting one's birth planets by degrees in one's birth chart it can be a message that change in that area needs to take place. Sometimes the changes are a message from one's Higher Self and sometimes their is a inner knowing that one should change certain aspects of one's life.  If one tries to block that inner message and not deal with the inner push to change -- then the inner self can use the outer forces it create circumstances in their outer life that makes one change.

Interesting thing about Uranus changes, sometime when the transit passes things go back to some degree what they were earlier (not always). But hopefully one has learned something about themselves and their life from the Uranian cycle.

The world is going through this competing Saturn/Uranus forces... which separates people on opposite sides about beliefs, be it religious or political, or even health issues brought forth from Covid.

We had full moon today at last degrees of Leo and now moved into health and at times analytical / critical oriented sign of Virgo.

Hi Again Honey,

I just had to quickly reply because it made me smile that you had a dog called Honey. Me Too, she was a gorgeous golden labrador the best dog I ever owned.

Hope you're doing ok and not feeling too bad. Since the full moon that Ace mentioned things have eased for me and I'm hoping it continues but ...........but those planets will continue their dance for a while yet so I'm not holding my breath lol.

Take good care,
Jane

Hi Karen and everyone,

Saw this post for a while but just have decided to post a reply now. (Strange, isn't it? I was hardly like that.)

It took me more than three decades to learn that ups and downs (being lucky and unlucky) are only about our perspectives. Don't get me wrong, though I know good luck only spoils us, really spoils us, and we can learn a lot more from bad luck, I still like good luck anyway. I also believe in useful tools that helps you get good lucks and avoid bad luck. The easy example is, if you know in advance it's going to rain, you can bring your umbrella. Hence, you will have a good luck, not a bad one (getting wet in the rain etc.).

Spiritual tools for good luck (astrology etc.) is even more complicated than that. As for me, I have studied (everyday) I Ching or The Book of Changes for more than 40 years. To make the long short, I used to start from zero, became a translator, and finally was en editor-in- chief without 6 years with the help of I Ching. Even though, I never consult I Ching for my worldly success but only spiritual one. For example, I only wanted to know if what "state of mind" I will get the next day. That's all. So, if I know in advance that my feelings will be (or tend to be) down in the morrow, I will be preparing. On the contrary, if I know I will have good luck tomorrow, I will tend to be more careless and bad luck will follow for sure. So, I even have to be "more" prepare.

On the large scale, I have no idea. I really don't know why the world is suffering again. Still, I read somewhere that COVID-19 pandemic is only the 8th (by death tool) pandemics (4.4–9.6 million as of 19 August 2021). The Black Death (1346–1353) was a lot higher, 75–200 million; Spanish flu (1918–1920 ) 17–100 million; or even HIV/AIDS pandemic 36.3 million (as of 2020). Today it seems we can really feel how those people in the past felt as they seemed to be in a lot worse situation than us.

Back to our perspectives, whenever our feelings are down, we have to find the way to change it (our perspectives). It could be boiled down to this old wisdom: do not dwell on the past (difficulties), do not anticipate the (ease and no difficulties) future, but only be here and now. The immediate difficulty we are facing is only one-third of our entire experiences. The more we dwell in the past, the more we tend to get difficulties in the present. And the more we anticipate the future, the more we will feel about difficulties in the present. But if we can convince ourselves that the present difficulty is only a single event and will inevitably come to its end like everything else, somehow it will really help us to deal more with the present difficulty.

That being said, I also know that it's a lot easier said than done. :-)

Hi Monty,

So nice to see you.   Your use of good luck/ bad luck was interesting to me... maybe it is more of oriental terms and ideas - I see it less used here... instead I use myself the terms maybe of favorable and less favorable conditions.   And it also brings to mind the oriental concept of karmic forces. (  a term I do use).    Which to me is a Universal Law of energy and existence... we rarely consciously know the full parameters of how karma or the full conditions of how Karma is working or playing out at any moment.  But to me it is happening nevertheless.

To my understanding Karma ( The Law of Balance in the universe) is an energetic law manifesting throughout our whole being ( through multiple fields of consciousness) and also the world.  There are personal karmic forces and more universal group karmic forces effecting any types of groups, countries and the worlds we live in.   It is energy action at any level, so we are constantly playing out the forces we created from earlier thoughts, emotions and physical actions in this life and also from earlier incarnations.  Because of our limited knowledge of the full forces we have created we sometimes assign it to luck perhaps.

We are also creating and making new karmic patterns at every moment.. which can be very useful for getting glimpses of understanding and a working tool and as one gets more aligned to the the uses of our mind and emotions and becomes more disciplined and aligned to our higher Self and purposes.    So we then can work with consciously putting forth energy patterns of force, which in time becomes the means to work with the laws of nature and not against them.  

Astrology for myself is a study of the forces and as like karma not always easy to understand the full array of forces and the manifestations of those forces within individuals and the world --- but sometimes it can give one insights and glimpses of what type of forces are manifesting and can be a useful tool for making choices how to navigate though them.  Some karmic forces are not in our personal control to control but how we react to them is our choice to some degree.

To me they happen and play out whether we understand them or not .. it's not just luck manifesting. Being that Karma is called the Law of Action and Change , I see the corresponding connection to the I Ching -- the Book of Changes.

sorry,, was just rambling out my thoughts when I saw and read Monty's post.

peace
Ace
