Hoaxagram: The Grand sextile of July 29th

Before I get into the daily energy of the Flint trecena, I thought I’d look at the July 29th “Grand Sextile”, or as some refer to it the “Star of David”, that is currently becoming very popular as the next “really important shift that spiritual seekers have been waiting for.” In other words more hype with very little fact. Hey, it’s the one Etznab trecena, if I can’t create a few sparks now, then when? First of all as a heretical investigator I have a great difficulty in just going along with peoples’ made up and self serving “spiritual” misinformation that seems to be the steady diet of so many. In the past we discussed why Carl Calleman’s Mayan Tun calendar continuing after October 28th 2011 was not based on scientific data, but only opinions. We discussed that the December 21st 2012 reported end of the Mayan Long Count was not based on speculation and the great disinformation of the film “2012 Crossing Over” where they repeatedly referenced the solar system crossing the galactic plane, which actually happened in 1998. We discussed the lie that all the planets were in a straight line at that time. We discussed the misinformation of Saturn, Venus and Mercury lining up over the pyramids at Giza. We proved that we are over 300 years away from the “Age of Aquarius”. We discussed how the pursuit of unity consciousness benefits the global elite. The popularity of these hoaxes compared to my rebuttals certainly illustrates the Mark Twain quote that “It is easier to fool people than convince them that they’ve been fooled.” Sometimes I wonder why I even continue to point out that “the emperor has no clothes.” The forces of misinformation are vast. But I keep going because I agree with George Bernard Shaw’s statement “Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.”

    So the latest hype is the July 29th “Grand Sextile”. The article that seems to be getting the greatest play has an author who is referencing the “Mayan Tzolkin” but in fact he is not discussing the Tzolkin of the Maya, which is what we talk about here at New World Birth. This author is referencing the Dream Spell “Tzolkin” which is completely a false representation and not from the Maya, but the invention of Jose Arguelles… which has nothing to do with the Mayan Tzolkin. Second look at the Earth Grand Trine it is being defined by Pluto along with Venus and the Moon. Given how fast the moon moves this chart will be out of orb within hours. The third point of the Earth Grand Trine is Venus which is also currently moving very fast covering more than a degree in a day, faster in movement than even the Sun at the time of the “Grand Sextile”.The significance of this configuration is as a kite, with the Water Grand trine and Pluto acting as the tail. This is more folks creating drama out of nothing, except their own wishful thinking. This type of hype is the worst form of “spiritual” guidance, but people would rather consume false sugar coated non-sense and look for the quick fix, as if we are all going to ascend because of a date, or alignment. This type of information is toxic and a distraction to keep people from finding their own path as an authentic individual.

   Why should I care about this type of disinformation? I am repulsed by people looking for the quick fix to come from the cosmos from some portal, star gate, ascension, or any other cosmic gift that does not require any real work from us, just to have been born at the right moment, to be incarnated when Santa Claus makes his visit. The Koran speaks “Do you expect to enter the gates of Heaven without going through the trials of those who passed before you?” What this type of misinformation does is it causes people to lose hope. Personally I’ve had enough of this date and that date, that will change humanity. There is only now. I used this Krishnamurti quote last time but it is an important statement, which is “The only hope for humankind is in the transformation of the individual.” Don’t look out there for your transformation. It resides inside of you to awaken to and shine as a beacon for others to realize they too can find their authentic selves. Or wait until the 29th to realize this is one more hoax that leaves people feeling disappointed and questioning if there is any valid information that they can trust. These types of posts leave people disenchanted and are spiritually damaging. I don’t wish to rain on anyone’s parade, but I feel I must speak up when it’s a parade of lemmings going over a cliff…again.

     On the lighter side, August is the eighth month and with the digits for 2013, when added together we get 14, then we add 1 + 4 to tell us that this is a fourteen/five month in numerology. Basic numerology reduces numbers to one through nine, so when we think about that arc the five represents the middle of the journey where we reach the peak of the mountain before heading down the other side. Until the five month, information is obstructed from view as we climb, then at the peak we can see the lay of the land for the rest of the journey. August will bring changes that break through the restrictions of the past to shift us in a new direction. A five month brings new opportunities, options, and choices through our creativity. The fourteen/five combination are represented by the Art/Temperance and the Hierophant in the Tarot cards, which is about integration of opposites to discover the ground that transcends them both, which we bring forth as teachers, who learn from what we share and the experience of those who honor us by implementing our guidance in their lives.

    At first glance August does not seem to have the intensity of the previous months with no planets changing directions or any transpersonal planets changing signs. But looking a little deeper we have Jupiter entering into the t-square with Uranus and Pluto which expands our efforts regarding our true purpose and the security of our homes and families against the forces of tyranny. When Venus moves into Libra it creates a grand cross with Jupiter, Uranus, and Pluto late in August. I don’t know how many other ways I can say transform, which is the theme of the current years. Jupiter in Cancer opposed by Pluto in Capricorn and squaring Uranus in Aries, pushes us to move beyond our old conditioned responses and break through into the freedom of acting as your authentic true self in August. The dance becomes even more interesting on the 7th when Jupiter exactly opposes Pluto, then on the 21st Jupiter exactly squares Uranus, and the grand finale of August hits from the 23rd to the 29th when Venus newly in Libra forms a very challenging Grand Cross opposing Uranus in Aries while both planets square Jupiter opposing Pluto. The moon adds to the intense configuration as it moves through Cancer on the 3rd and 4th, then Libra on the 10th and particularly on the 11th, then Capricorn on the 17th, and finally in Aries on the 23rd and 24th. Grand Crosses are difficult energy so this will be a time of challenges.

    As we begin the Flint trecena, all the planets appear to move forward from our vantage point on Earth except Chiron,Uranus, Neptune and Pluto which appear to move retrograde or in reverse motion. As I’ve said before planets don’t really move in reverse in their orbits, but appear to move backward much like being in a car passing a slower moving car. There is a point where the slower moving car appears to be moving in reverse when compared to landmarks in the far distance. Chiron retrograde in Pisces is about releasing stuck emotional energy, so that we can return to the natural flow of life. Retrograde Chiron has us reviewing our wounds so that they can be released, by having the courage to open our hearts to any fear or pain associated with our past. When Chiron is in Pisces people are willing to sacrifice their individual pain in hopes of finding bliss in Universal consciousness. At its worst this can manifest as folks justifying their victimhood as some form of martyrdom. This should be transcendence and surrender without losing ourselves in the experience. The retrograde aspect brings a longing for lost loves and the memories of our losses, encouraging us to return to look at our core wounds and bring them to the surface so they can be healed. Retrograde Uranus in Aries is seeking to shake our very foundation through the unexpected rebellion of the individual. This can shock us to awaken and forces us to embrace our new way of living through reversals and unexpected events. It is best to embrace the changes when they occur, because they are removing the obstacles to our new direction. This is about unplanned experiences that disrupt our perceived and planned life path in order to move us forward in our spiritual evolution, individually and globally.

This quote from Gandhi also describes this energy when he said, “If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. We need not wait to see what others do.” It’s interesting that Gandhi led Indians in protesting the national salt tax with the Dandi Salt March in 1930 when Uranus was last in Aries. Gandhi certainly showed the impact one individual can have on the world.Retrograde Neptune in Pisces is seeking transcendence through spiritual experiences. This will be a time to use spiritual practices to keep us grounded as we expand our intuition and consciousness. This will be important energy to nurture as we are in the middle of four years of the unexpected rebellion of the individual (Uranus in Aries) challenging the decaying power structure (Pluto in Capricorn). This will be a difficult time of upheaval, destruction, death, unexpected change, natural disasters, violence and war, so finding our own peace in our connection to spirit will be an important quality to cultivate now for the tumultuous road we are traversing. Neptune pushes us to transcend the physical world to connect with our higher purpose and spiritual transformation, but also encourages escapism as some will seek unconsciousness while others to awaken. With Pluto, the planet of transformation through a death and rebirth cycle, moving retrograde, which is about reviewing the past, and will require releasing anything from the past that is a burden to our new path. We can choose to let go or we can have it ripped from our hands, really all we have is the choice about how we want to react, but Pluto will take our baggage regardless of our attachment, if it doesn’t have a purpose in our rebirth. Pluto represents death, completion, and in Capricorn, the breakdown of structures, to bring about transformation.
