(Degree Angel: Rehael (RAY-ha-EL) Diamond in the Rough, Filial Submission)
When the time is right what is in you comes forth, and when this happens you need to just let it happen. You have much to give, much to share, but if you worry about how to do it, or in what context to do it, or do anything to repress it, stress and frustration will be the result. Be spontaneous, and work diligently to not judge your own actions.
The Chandra Symbol for this degree is “A talkative woman with tape over her mouth.” The bats of the Omega symbol are the CONTENTS of the SUBCONSCIOUS (the cave) whose time of awakening has come, and who seek release from the place they've been dormant.
The talkative woman seeks release of her ideas through speech, but the time of speech is over – now is the time to act – to allow the forces of the deep self to carry out their purposes without need of rationalization, justification, explanation, or any other verbal constructs.
Pleiadian Symbol: A tree heavy with apples of pure gold.
Azoth Symbol: Far from land, fish are playing.
Seed degree: Cancer 8. A man versed in the art of making charms and talismans. (Omega Symbol). The charms and talismans awaken sleeping forces.
An alchemical text written on parchment. (Chandra Symbol). Talking and speculating stop and the focus becomes carrying out the Great Work, that is, the alchemical process.
Taurus 9: A Christmas Tree Is Decorated And Shines In The Darkness. This Symbol is a bit like this annular solar eclipse - it is 'decorated and shines in the darkness' as the eclipse will be seen with a 'ring of fire' around it. Although we hardly think of Christmas in April, this is a Symbol that asks that we embody the idea of Christmas - caring about our family and friends and bringing a sense of community, peace and togetherness into our lives. As this is a solar eclipse, that can be a rather challenging thing as we may have found ourselves closed off from others, or feeling a lack of peace and love or connection to family or loved ones. One of the messages of this eclipse is to open your heart and let love and light in, even in the midst of all the challenges and exaggerated feelings that can be in the air with Mars, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto all in the grand cross aspect that we are experiencing now. Some will find a reunion with old friends, lovers or acquaintances, while others may be cutting some out of their lives.
‘A Christmas Tree is Decorated’ is a Symbol that brings feelings of family, celebration and happiness. When the ‘Tree is Decorated’ it represents a sign of unity and that many of our family and celebrational needs are, or will be, met. The star placed on top of the ‘Tree’ represents the star that led the wise men, the Magi astrologers, to the stable in Bethlehem where Jesus was born. As long as the spirit of Christmas is celebrated with thankfulness and joy, people will be happy and share both their love and their time. Often at Christmas time it is cold outside. There is the sensation of snow on the ground and everything being rather bleak outside whilst inside there is love, shelter, food and warmth. There is also the beauty of the Christmas lights – the ‘Tree is Decorated and Shines in the Darkness’. The presents glint and a feeling of anticipation hangs in the air of what fun and rewards are yet to come. Giving and receiving whilst enjoying family and friends are the main elements behind the spirit of Christmas. The presents don’t have to be big and expensive, it’s the warmth and spirit of sharing that matters.
This is an opportunity for enjoying or accepting family, for celebrations and appreciating cultural ties, and for taking time out to remember and honor these things. Activities with the group will bring joy to all those who are close enough to partake. Even if you don’t know the people you are celebrating with, joy will be spread and celebrated-unless there are feelings of alienation, loneliness or loss. Do some elements of your situation shine more brightly in the cloak of the night than the clear night of day? Even if you arrive empty handed, the true gift is in the giving of yourself, not in the actual gift itself. Hopefully everybody realizes this. If there are gifts you want to give, are you worried about how they will be received? One of our gifts to others is to be able to receive our gifts and each other joyfully without worry or judgment.
Keywords: Enjoying the fruits of one’s culture. Warmth within whilst it may be cold outside. The rebirth of the spirit. Faith and the hope of happiness and goodwill of people to one another. Celebrations bringing people together that once were parted. Decorations. Things done with loving intent. The promise of good things. Colored lights. Gifts. Stars and angels.
The Caution: The pretense of happiness or success in a decorative show. Not allowing others from different religions or social classes. Being excluded and left in the cold. Family cohesion on display belying the real situation. Commercialism. Family disappointments.
