Lessons Learned From Astrology
You know, now that I think about it, I’m pretty sure that as soon as a spiritual practice starts being for anything other than remaining spiritually regulated and in heartful relationship with others, it stops
A) working
B) being a spiritual practice.
The reason I’m doing all this publicly accountable predictive astrology is so that people will trust me more if they want to work with me, and that’s clearly about being regulated and heartful. Predicting outcomes of sporting events I am ATTENDING seems pretty far afield of that.
I can’t pretend to completely understand why it went down the way it did, but I DEFINITELY understood by like five minutes into the match that I was in a spiritually unwholesome situation of my own devising. It wasn’t worth it for any reason except perhaps to learn this lesson.
It’s really a testament to astrology that it is so satisfying a practice that I rely on it enough to forget how much more subtle the work of my soul is than a snapshot of the celestial circumstances in one instant of human perception can describe.
One can become so impressed with astrology that it functions PSYCHOLOGICALLY like physics — like an a priori description that BY DEFINITION contains the sought information. But what it is is a MESSAGE from a wiser perspective that will literally turn on you to teach you a lesson.
This is precisely the reason I chose to study a purely divinatory form of astrology that leaves no technical abstractions between you and this truth, which is why it’s SO SILLY that all this happened on the anniversary of me reading the book that set me on this trajectory.
