Recognizing the Inner Dark
With the energy of this Eclipsed Full Moon in Taurus, the invitation is to take care of our material existence and all that it entails, from the health of our bodies to the stability of our finances. There's a deeper, mystical level to this that has to do with Density. I dedicated this whole week to Tyranny and Fear, how I've faced it, overcome it and integrated it. Tyranny and Fear are expressions of Density, the lower vibrations of Earth and Metal, the labyrinths and prisons, the compulsory routines.
Take sometime to truly study political discourse and actions in your country. Chances are your first reaction will be disgust or something even stronger, probably leaning more against one side of the equation than the other. Perhaps you consider yourselves leftists and so leaders and parties that seem to promote leftist ideologies will be more appealing to you, so they'll get less criticism, while the opposing parties will get your indifference or even your full scorn, especially if they're currently in power. It's possible that you consider them responsible, knowingly or not, for your everyday predicaments, the ways in which the State fails you and your family, the restrictions that you deem unnecessary and abusive. A similar feeling might arise when you think of banks and corporations, perhaps your superiors in your current job. Here's an exercise: point that observation and criticism to yourself, what do you see?
Whether we accept it or not, we're responsible for everything that's happening to us right now. If we focus a lot on the things that displease us, we only manifest more displeasure which in turn will increase our frustration. We may experience loathing, envy, anger or hatred toward that situation that we feel is oppressing us. That's Density, and it's all that tyrants, criminals and the corrupt ever feel. It affects our bodies, our minds and our emotional balance and therefore, it affects our capacity to accept events. When we judge others, we judge ourselves. When we denigrate others, we denigrate ourselves. So if we dedicate a lot of our time to the comings and goings of people we deem unworthy of respect or admiration, we diminish ourselves and become less aware of the effects that's having on us. Density is Opacity, the more we concentrate on it, the less we see and hear.
Have you ever wondered why dictators and business tycoons are so inclined to lie and conceal information about their activities? Why they're willing to commit transgressions and atrocities just to accumulate more power and money? Why they don't seem to get enough of that and just continue to decline to the point that their horrors are plain to see in their faces? These people have no understanding of what they do, nor of the consequences. You may say "They're evil because they kill people and spread misery!" but the highest probability is that they don't see themselves as unjust or evil. If you listen to them, you'll catch a glimpse of their enormous sense of entitlement, they think they've been kept from beauty so they take it away from others as their trophy. If you were in their position, would you behave differently?
Harsh question, eh?
People who don't know how to live in a higher state of vibration will resort to dark dealings, falsehood and crime more and more often. Buddha or Jesus themselves could appear before them and tell them how to live a better, more respectful life, and they'd move away from that as fast as possible, because they've identified with the dense workings that they've set up, their spirits are almost completely overtaken by their egos, they've believed their own narratives so blindly that they can no longer see possibility for a better world or a better life. They think they're justified in what they do, and that potential exists in all of us. We have to be very attentive of the temptations and pitfalls of self-righteousness and indignation, we have to take care of fostering resentments. Let those who have fallen to the densest regions of humanity teach you how not to live. Let them be your mirrors, learn from them.
As above, so below. The toxicity, hurt and corruption around you is also inside you. Train awareness, ask the difficult questions, put yourself in the shoes of those whose actions offend you in some way and you'll see that the same capacity for transgression exists in you, that you've exercised it already to some degree. This recognition will allow you to raise the vibration, to acknowledge the density of your life in this world as part of you, not as something separate. Thus you bring more Light and Love to your existence and, in all probability, you'll start veering away from politics, economics and social dilemmas, seeing them for what they are: stories that you can rewrite as you see fit.

Gatherings with relatives and strangers. I bring messages to certain people. I see a very immersive filmic combat.

Regulate your temperature and your physical activity, reduce the impetus of your movement and increase the accuracy. Focus on the state of your health, on the points of fatigue and pain, work on diminishing discomfort and recovering balance. Do not rush, walk calmly and with attention, avoid falls. Take care of your physical integrity, there are elements of your diet and routine activities that are impacting you in excess. Disease and toxins are density that can be elevated, breath and exercise, meditate on what afflicts you, do not stay with a single diagnosis, seek alternative visions. Reformulate strategies, reconsider courses of action, the pillars that you have had as examples can no longer support you, your path brings you new challenges that require other attitudes. Moderate your strength, avoid trespassing boundaries.
