Virgo 18 (17° - 18°)INTUITION
Consulting the oracle is a risky business since the quiet inner voice cannot always be separated from distortions of desire "Deep and mysterious intuitive self-awareness" Knowledge is not complete unless both the rational and non-rational aspects are considered. In the modern world we can see that greater emphasis is placed on scientific method yet, though a minority, esotericists have also kept pace with an evolution of consciousness associated with the more intuitive, right brain approach. This image is rather outdated - the Ouija Board provided guidance of a sort - yet could very easily offer silly or false commentary. If we consult an oracle we are advised to be ultra-careful to balance intuition with reason; the words of an oracle can carry surprisingly significant weight and could easily influence outcomes as a kind of self-fulfilling prophesy.

Creative sensitivity leads towards a deep and subtle knowledge of the true nature of reality
The use of tools of magic has its dangers. Very often, those of weak mind will surrender their will to the forces that manipulate them into bondage when they get caught up in their superstition and distorted perceptions of subtle realities. However, to the savvy, such tools can be employed very meaningfully to develop real skills such that their inclinations and insights serve them every step of the way towards the realization of their full acumen. Thus, inner comprehension becomes activated into outer form, which is of the utmost importance since our values and strengths are made known only as they are given material expression. This does depend upon a keen determined intelligence that can sense the difference between true insight and cosmic silliness. The future does not arise suddenly as if out of the blue – it creates itself by rearranging existing streams of energy and form. Strands of the future are evident here and now – to those who look for and notice them and thus interpret their meaning. We can depend upon these myriad signatures of coming events – what must be must be. However, what may be may also not be. Optimisation depends upon expanding our sensitivity to a greater degree so that it encompasses illimitable life potentials in every situation and does not fixate upon one particular expected or preferred version. It is all too easy to warp our perceptions to fit our desires. When we learn how to participate in true and rational divination, the completeness of our experience of life becomes steady and whole. Neither logic nor spiritual insight can give the whole truth because each needs to be married with the other to give birth to any real understanding. |
