AUDIBLE BIOLOGY

Prepare to be amazed! I have watched this over and over again

SOUND IS VIBRATION - and vibration is life

The title says it all really. Watch these videos and combine this knowledge with the website I mentioned a few posts ago - Hans Kayser on harmonics - and my article on the Seven Universal Laws and you have 'The Secret'. As one author pointed out, even when you are dead, forces are interacting with your body causing it to vibrate in its decomposition to ashes!

LAW 3: Nothing rests; everything moves, everything vibrates

This video is part one of three. This particular series come with commentary but, for a fabulous (ear splitting) shorter video, please watch this one, below.



One of the explanations for how astrology 'works' has to be that the frequencies transmitted in the ethers, at the time of the formation of the embryo (culminating at birth) determine to what, and to whom, a person will have a natural resonance, or 'attunement' to throughout their life. These vibrational waves travelling across the Universe are (possibly) altered by the different locations of the planets and the angular distances between them and the Earth, at the location in question. In the final analysis everything is energy and we are all entangled in a giant matrix of it - light, colour, sound etc.

Looking at this video about resonance on You Tube, I was struck by the similarity of the opening shot to how the female human egg looks under the microscope just before the sperm is introduced in a procedure known as ICSI. This video also has more than one part. In subsequent ones, the perturbations of the sand/lycopodium, at certain brief junctures, mimic (to my eye) the embryo development as it divides before being implanted back into the woman's body in IVF treatment.

The obvious question here has to be, can the thought vibrations emanating from the people in any relationship to the embryo - not necessarily in proximity - have an effect on its development or viability? Can thoughts affect the outcome of IVF?

Moving on, here is a video that shows entrainment. Entrainment is a well known phenomenon that was first discovered when pendulum clocks, kept in close vicinity to each other, were noted to fall into a synchronous ticking motion. Nowadays the example most often given to show entrainment at work is the phenomenon of women sharing houses, or any living space, for a period of time. After a while their menstrual cycles will naturally fall into synchronisation.


Something else that I came across this week that dovetails nicely with this topic of vibration, especially in the thought world, is the work of Cell Biologist Dr Bruce Lipton.

We often believe that our children have inherited our traits and mannerisms and say, 'Oh it's in the genes' but Dr Lipton's research has shown that DNA doesn't control our biology, but the thoughts and signals from outside the cell do. He goes on to tell us .......

Epigenetic science demonstrates that the cell’s nucleus is a read-write hard disk, wherein gene software is programmed by the membrane’s response to environmental perceptions.

What this suggests to me is that, when you see your child do something and observe similarity to your own responses, they may actually have become entrained to your thought patterns and they are in synch with your beliefs and environmental circumstances. Consequently they grow up to be very similar.

You see this to some extent in the physical characteristics of adopted children. They often grow up to look uncannily like the non biological parents, something that cannot be explained away as just being similar mannerisms, or similar styles of clothing/haircuts.

Please remember I am no expert; I'm just thinking out loud here. This type of research is still in its early days and, as most things eventually do, turns established paradigms on their head. I sincerely doubt that Dr Lipton's work is being well received by the 'old school'.

This year, astrology wise, we have a Saturn/Uranus opposition. This speaks of significant break throughs (Uranus) in Science ( Saturn) and surprising changes (Uranus) to established beliefs and traditions (Saturn) especially in the area of information(Virgo) and waves (Pisces). As energy has a wave form I wonder what changes may arise to our established laws of physics?As Uranus in Pisces also corresponds to music, and Saturn in Virgo to the organisation of tones and composition, it may well be that there is some new information about how sound affects reality due to come to light - or at least being hotly debated (the opposition).

I'm just not sure about the truth at the heart of genetic research. However, watching the videos on cymatics (the study of vibration) above, one cannot help but see an obvious truth about creation - that we are all linked together via invisible sound frequencies.

In the beginning was the Word (sound).

When you look at the inter connectivity of the global village via the Internet it sounds incredibly analogous to one of Dr Lipton's observations about is discoveries in the area of cell communication.........

It was a transformational moment for me to discover that I am NOT a biochemical robot, but a spiritually controlled community of programmable cells who is now collaborating with other cell “communities”

Interesting times indeed!

WHAT ARE THE EARTHLINGS DOING?

This video is not the normal content for Cosmic Cipher but I find that there's something utterly fascinating about it and I wanted to share it with you. This week, 2nd May 15.12 GMT, will mark the 56th anniversary of the first commercial jet airline flight.

I find this video to be a stark reminder of just how far we have come and developed as a 'global village' in the past six decades. We, in the western world, couldn't be any more connected by transport, telephony, television or postal links and yet the irony is that the majority of people are still no nearer to being able to connect to what's really going on in their heart and openly express their true thoughts, feelings fears, hopes and wishes with their fellow planetary inhabitants. Just an observation!

Anyway here's the video and accompanying text and credit........



Millions of people move about planet Earth by airplane every day. Hundreds of thousands of airplane flights take place over the US every day. A dramatic graphical depiction of these flights was created by Aaron Koblin and is shown above. The movie depicts flight patterns that occurred over a few days in 2005 March. The count on the lower left shows the number of flights USA-related flights at the time listed on the lower right. The trails shown are not contrails but rather generated artificially by a computer algorithm. Major cities in North America and the USA are discernable. Inspection of the movie shows that some times of the day are busier than others, indicating that flights leave some destinations at times that are convenient for travelers. In terms of distance, flying to a distant location is much safer than driving to that location. Flying in an airplane, however, remains slightly more dangerous than driving to a nearby airport.

THE SECRET OF EXISTENCE

This is all we need to know. Contained within this absolutely wonderful site www.hanskayser.com is the real theory of everything! This has to be one of the best looking, most fascinating sites on the web. Kudo's to Helios design.

Check out the book within this site too. It's by Maryel Gardyne and called the Atom and The Octave. For example, chapter 7- Molecules:

We shall compare all atoms to notes, each with its own frequency and set of overtones which pulsate outward from its centre (the nucleus) in all directions as electrons or quanta in measurable but relative rhythms or beats. These pulsations will be of a spherical nature in space/time and quite balanced, unless interfered with by some neighbouring counter pulsations. By resonance, they exert influence far and wide in several octaves, both above and below their immediate...

What a find.

THE EMERALD TABLET

One of the most powerful and influential texts to have survived from ancient times is The Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus. Also known as the Smaragdine Table, this work contains the philosophical idea that the pattern of the universe can only be comprehended when one recognises that all things on Earth and in Heaven are interlinked. Therefore those who gain a greater understanding of themselves will automatically have established a greater understanding of the entire nature of existence.

The text of the tablet states that the wisdom of the whole Universe is divided into three parts and, because Hermes understood them all, he was known by the title of 'Three times great' or Trismegistus.

The three areas are Alchemy, Astrology and Theurgy (a type of divine intervention or Magic). Interestingly there are parallels between the early practice of many secret societies e.g., The Eleusian Mystery schools, Martinism, Freemasonry, The Knights Templar and Rosicrucianism. Although each has its own history there is a fusion of beliefs that can all be traced back to the Hermetic (sealed) literature that formed the magical education of Egyptian Priests.

These societies were deemed 'secret' because the knowledge either had to be preserved from corruption by keeping it 'underground' and hidden (occulted) or in later times due to persecution. Also they were only open to those who were deemed suitable for instruction. Thus the knowledge was transmitted via word of mouth or ritual. Ritualism was used as profound knowledge was more easily absorbable to the mind in abstract form, but also because rituals evoked magical forces. If the knowledge was ever committed to the written form it was often veiled in allegory, symbolism and cipher to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands.

Far from many of these organisations being sinister (although in modern times certain factions have quite patently corrupted the initial intention) the aim of Freemasonry and other mystery schools and societies was the organised sharing of spiritual and moral lessons in order to build up, and correctly know, the 'Temple of the spirit'. Again, if one could know how he was 'built' and what he was crafted from, he would know how the Universe was built around him.

The ancient term of 'thrice great' referring, as we say to the knowledge of Hermes, can be equated to the triangle within the circle of spirit and the square of matter - the triangle also representing three alchemical substances (Salt, Mercury and Sulphur) but also the 'Trinity' which formed the fundamental tenet of these societies; Brotherly love, Relief and Truth... Our Father (Mind) Son (Body/Man) and Holy spirit (Spirit/Soul) and in more recent times even Liberty, Equality and Fraternity. The whole undivided essence of God is said to belong equally to each part of the Trinity.

Throughout history the knowledge was passed from Master to Initiate only after one had proved their commitment to the cause of striving to perfect themselves and thereby contributing to wider society. Nowadays the mystery school teachings have come out from the 'closet' and are freely available but they will still mean little to the person who has not been initiated (or become self-versed) in the three areas of Alchemy, Astrology and Theurgy. Here, for example is the text from the Emerald Tablet:

VERBA SECRETORUM HERMETIS.

1. It is true, certain, and without falsehood, that whatever is below is like that which is above; and that which is above is like that which is below: to accomplish the one wonderful work.

2. As all things are derived from the One Only Thing, by the will and by the word of the One Only One who created it in His Mind, so all things owe their existence to this Unity by the order of Nature, and can be improved by Adaptation to that Mind.

3. Its Father is the Sun; its Mother is the Moon; the Wind carries it in its womb; and its nurse is the Earth.

4. This Thing is the Father of all perfect things in the world.

5. Its power is most perfect when it has again been changed into Earth.

6. Separate the Earth from the Fire, the subtle from the gross, but carefully and with great judgement and skill.

7. It ascends from earth to heaven, and descends again, new born, to the earth, taking unto itself thereby the power of the Above and the Below.

8. Thus the splendor of the whole world will be thine, and all darkness shall flee from thee.

9. This is the strongest of all powers, the Force of all forces, for it overcometh all subtle things and can penetrate all that is solid.

10. For thus was the world created, and rare combinations, and wonders of many kinds are wrought.

11. Hence I am called HERMES TRISMEGISTUS, having mastered the three parts of the wisdom of the whole world.

12. What I have to say about the masterpiece of the alchemical art, the Solar Work, is now ended.

In recent times the burgeoning interest in evoking 'magical forces' through control of the mind and will - such as via the Law of Attraction or Law of Correspondence - is opening people' s eyes and ears to the true nature of our Universe. To those who are willing to delve into the past, there are many secrets still to unfold. Attempts at understanding, or even just the openness to see the patterns and interconnectedness of man and his environment, is the first step to leading a more fulfilling and harmonious life.

THE VIBRATION OF TRUTH

There are so many people who I would like to chain to a chair and say 'Hey listen, and I mean really listen to these words' but I can't do that. Even if I could I wouldn't. I've long since learned that we all have to come to this knowledge and understanding in our own way and in our own time. If you have arrived here and just listened to this video, know that, even if you already knew the words in this video as truth, you were possibly meant to hear them again.

Notice too the particular quality and 'sound' of truth. It has it's own vibration and although this sounds really cliched, notice how and it really does speak to the heart and not the head. There are other people who can impart a very similar message but it just goes in one ear and out the other. We hear it but it doesn't resonate deep within.

The Universal Law states that one may change their mental vibrations by an act of attention. Where attention goes, energy flows. By deliberately placing our thoughts on the higher planes, i.e the positive, the good and what we know to be of value, then disengaging from people, situations and thoughts that bring us down, slowly, but surely, higher vibrations will replace the lower. This is known as the art of mental transmutation and it is in this place that miracles can and will occur.

APPLYING THE DOCTRINE OF SIGNATURES IN 2008

The Doctrine of Signatures is, at heart, another term for the Hermetic Law of Correspondence. When talking to a Homeopath or Herbalist they are more likely to refer to the former term because the Doctrine of Signatures relates specifically to the similarity of plants and herbs (and their medicinal uses) to parts of the body i.e by careful observation one can learn the healing properties of a plant from some aspect of its 'nature' or place of growing.

In essence however since time immemorial all healers (and shamans) were herbalists, alchemists and astrologers. The fundamental framework of all three disciplines is anchored in the seven Hermetic Universal Laws, one of which is The Law of Correspondence - a law that was plainly visible to those with a spiritual eye.

Today we call mainstream healers, Medical Doctors. The herbs are combined with chemicals or the herbal properties are mimicked artificially and sold as Pharmaceuticals. Many of our Doctors in 2008 who are not also interested in alternative medicine sadly lack the 'spiritual eye' to notice correspondences.

For example The Doctrine of Signatures and Law of Correspondence philosophies postulate that in order to understand fever one should note the activity (correspondence) to volcanoes. An alternative healer when presented with fever or boils will ask about heat and what is angering the patient and causing them to erupt. Few Medical Doctors will make the immediate connections. The healer using Doctrine of Signatures will find a herb that has the properties of Mars and Pluto and administer either by sympathy (a little of the same will cure) or antipathy (a little of the opposite will cure i.e. find something to cool the body and emotions).

The non 'medical' astrologer, whilst not a healer of the physical body, will today 'treat' by helping the person to understand how they are intricately connected to the Cosmos. They will be advised that their fever is a symptom of Martian type correspondences that will either pass or intensify depending on action taken via free will. With a straightforward Mars/Pluto signature one could aim to 'bring to the surface' anything that has been internalised by talking suppressed emotions through, or by using martian type activities to redirect the energy.

The term Doctrine of Signatures is popularly ascribed to man called Paracelsus (1493-1541). However Paracelsus was a 'nom de plume'. Paracelsus was in fact the Swiss gentleman Phillippus Aureolus who later took the name Theophrastus Bombastus Von Hohenheim when he received a Baccalaureate in Medicine from the University of Vienna in 1510. Theophrastus subsequently adopted the surname of ParaCelsus as it breaks down into the words para -Celsus (beyond - Celsus).

Aulus Celsus was an medicinal 'encyclopedist' (25-50BC) and thanks to the tremendous dedication of Bill Thayer we can all read the translated work of Celsus' major treatise called De Medicina here)

As is usual when we look back through history we find that nothing is truly original in thought but simply an expanded or rewritten version of a previously known or perceived truth. It is clear that even prior to the time of Celsus the Law of Correspondence was already in use.

So when we read that in the early 1600's Jakob Bohme was responsible for the introduction of The Doctrine of Signatures via his book "Signatura Rerum; The Signature of all Things" we know that he was simply following Paracelsus and re-presenting esoteric knowledge that had been suppressed in the Dark Ages and was gradually finding it's way back to the light and into the printed word (but was still branded as heretical thought).

So how can The Doctrine help you in 2008? Well Saturn is passing through the sign of Virgo. As such the astrological symbolism (or correspondence) is that we will, as a collective, become more concerned about what we put into our bodies in the form of foodstuffs. We must pay more strict (SA) attention to our diet and daily habits (Virgo). One way to do this is to incorporate the ancient (Capricorn) truths (Pluto) into our lives.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT

Anthelme Brillat-Savarin wrote, in Physiologie du Gout, ou Meditations de Gastronomie Transcendante, 1826:

"Dis-moi ce que tu manges, je te dirai ce que tu es." [Tell me what you eat and I will tell you what you are].

In an essay entitled Concerning Spiritualism and Materialism, 1863/4, Ludwig Andreas Feuerbach wrote:

"Der Mensch ist, was er ißt."

That translates into English as 'man is what he eats'. Neither Brillat-Savarin or Feuerbach meant their quotations to be taken literally. They were stating that that the food one eats has a bearing on what one's state of mind and health.

"Ninety per cent of the diseases known to man are caused by cheap foodstuffs. You are what you eat."

The following list of correspondences has been doing the rounds via e-mail recently and although I do not know the original source much of the information conforms to the Doctrine of Signatures/Law of Correspondence and you may like to alter your diet accordingly in light of this knowledge.

Foods and their correspondences:

CARROTS
A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye; and science now shows that carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.

GRAPES
Many grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows that grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.

TOMATOES*
A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart is red and has four chambers. All of the research shows tomatoes are indeed pure heart and blood food.

WALNUTS
A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper Cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds are on the nut just like the neo-cortex. We now know that walnuts help develop over 3 dozen neuro-transmitters for brain function.

KIDNEY BEANS
Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the Human kidneys.

CELERY
Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough Sodium in your diet the body pulls it from the bones, making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.

SWEET POTATOES
Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycaemic index of diabetics.

ONIONS
Onions look like body cells. Today's research shows that onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes.

CITRUS FRUITS
Grapefruits, Oranges, and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.

PEANUTS
Listen up guys....Peanuts have a profound effect on the testicles and sexual libido. Peanuts were banned as a food for males by the church during the middle ages. Most people don't realize that arginine, the main component of Viagra, comes from peanuts.

Bananas, Cucumber, Zucchini and more target the size and strength of the male sexual organ.

and finally for the girls.....

OLIVES
Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries.

*I would say that many people do not realise that, along with potatoes, aubergine (eggplant) and chillies, tomatoes are part of the nightshade family. Tibetan Doctors advise against eating anything from the nightshade family!

For an excellent book on this subject of the composite (merging) of The Law of Correspondence and Doctrine of Signatures please read Vitalism - The History of Herbalism, Homeopathy and Flower Essences by Matthew Wood.

CAUGHT UP IN THE MATRIX

I don't normally like to post about the same subject twice but I just wanted to drop by to report that the synchronicities continue to flow in thick and fast with regard to my previous post on the Infinity Symbol, its origins and possible correlations.

Here is the most magnificent figure of eight picture sent by Claire from North Dakota. Meanwhile immersed 'in the flow' I just happened to trip across a book by someone called Hahn about Spin Echoes (used in Radiology and Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and he relates these echoes to the figure of eight, infinity shape.

Next stop on the coincidence trail was a paper from the Department of Philosophy at Newcastle University written by Melanie Purcell. It is entitled:

"What are the relationships between Infinity and Zero? The Implications of A Cyclic Universe and the Diagonally Woven Single Joined Thread Klein Bottle."

Here's just one extract from this totally fascinating paper:

What is of importance is that alchemy describes the process of a system. It describes the emergence of the universe as a process of transformation from a nonspatial nontemporal void into the physical spacetime reality of a cyclic universe. This process of transformation is common to all things. The interconnectedness of all things is realised through the structural transformations of process and like the effect of a bootstrap or in Sheldrake’s terminology a morphic resonance (see Sheldrake 1987) of formative causation, the very act of creation itself binds everything together as one, and provides access to the relationships between things.

In the alchemy of Newton we see that his interest was not only spiritual in inclination as he was fascinated by the properties of metals using alchemy to “‘probe the internal structure of its particle’, to find those “certain forces by which the particles of bodies...are either mutually impelled towards one another ... or are repelled and recede from one another”, for that, he said, “was the burden of philosophy’”(see Dobbs, 1975).

This article has some wonderful diagrams - and here are just two. If this subject has caught your imagination please do check out Melanie's work here

So there I was reading Newton's words about particles on Melanie's site when my inbox pinged and I opened a message from a reader called Rich. Rich was urging me to add Chaos Theory to the list of Universal Laws and pointing me to the following diagram which shows the shape of a P-Orbital; the wave like behaviour of an electron in an atom. Here's the shape of a P- Orbital:



Wow Rich! Thank you and....synchronous or what?!




I have heard of Chaos Theory but other than its association with Fractals and Zipfs Law, I'm no expert. However there is a pretty idiot proof primer on the subject here and I guess Rich could equally be referring to my experiencing ongoing synchronicities concerning the Analemma and infinity shapes, as he could be to my query about what the link is between all this information I keep coming across.

If you haven't got time to read about it, the essence of Chaos Theory is that in any mass of seemingly unrelated data there is actually an underlying order. However I don't know if it should be added to the Universal Laws because it is really just Science agreeing with what astrology and the ancient Laws and texts have revealed to us all along - that everything is part of the All; the great tapestry of Life in which each thread is part of a greater picture and every part affects the whole (even if we can't see the larger pattern). These days, however, it's not called a tapestry, it's known as The Matrix and finds its earth bound correspondence in The World Wide Web.

I'll be posting more astrology/esoteric/metaphysical based articles in 2008. If you want to make it a year where you get to grips with some of this Quantum Theory/Mechanics stuff (in layman's terms) and use it to change your life for the better I highly recommend you beg steal or borrow the book, The Divine Matrix By Gregg Braden. In this book he references this very same correspondence between the 'Web of Life' and the WWW and mentions, by way of analogy, how if you want a better connection with what's 'out there' you may need to look at what operating system you are using. Perhaps it's time for an update in 2008. Microsoft didn't call their system Windows by chance!

ZEITGEIST, INFINITY SYMBOL & THE SUN

All the wisdom of the ages is self-contained within the fundamental tenets of astrological practice. The study of Hermetic literature reveals the Universal Laws and through a study of symbolism, numerology and geometry one can begin to see the pattern running through all of creation.

As an astrologer I never dismiss coincidences. They are messages arriving via the unconscious. They are invisible threads that are trying to help us determine natures laws, patterns and harmony. Recently I have had a run of synchronicities and I'm quite baffled as to where they may be leading. I would like to discuss here how these 'coincidences' might fit together - although I freely admit it would take a much greater mind than I possess to make any practical sense of what is being brought to my door.

Firstly let me tell you that from a young age I have doodled spirals and the symbol for infinity and pondered on the meaning of them. Recently I read that the infinity symbol (above) is of unknown origin. This came to my notice within days of seeing the film Zeitgeist and writing about it in my previous post.

Those of you who have yet to see this not-for- profit movie may at this point like to read my previous post and perhaps then go on to view Part One of the movie*. Having done so (and ensure you have a comfortable seat because it is 20 minutes of compelling viewing) please contemplate the next image on this page, that 'coincidentally' also came to my attention this week.

This is an image known as the Analemma - a time lapse photograph of the annual passage of the Sun over Earth - rising to its highest declination North and then moving on down to its lowest declination South (from the Equator) as seen from a static position on Earth. In other words this is a visual depiction of the path of the Sun and the Solstice points. The curvature shows the Solstices - one of which we meet now 20th thru 23rd December 2007 as the Sun appears to stand still at 23.26 degrees of Southern declination. The other turning point occurs at the Summer Solstice in June.

It is important to know however that the visual turning point (Zeitgeist viewers take note) occurs on 25th December - Christmas Day. This is the date that day length visibly starts to change. To the ancients, who carefully tracked the daily position of any visible planet - but most especially the life-giving Sun - this symbol of time would surely have been noted. I'm sure archaeologists will have found regular occurrences of its appearance on cave walls and wood carvings as well as in Temples and other record and time-keeping artifacts. To my eyes it seems obvious that this is where the symbol for infinity must have arisen - infinity being a never ending factor (loop) of time and space.

It also seems clear to me that there would be some correspondence on Earth to this heavenly shape which looks like a figure 8 because the Sun was held in such reverence and worshipped as a God.

Obviously we know of the lines of the Tropics which match the solstices but surely our ancestors would have paid these latitudes and this symbol very special attention.

Let's have a recap on 'The Tropics'......The highest declination North of the Sun marks what we call the Tropic of Cancer around the Earth's sphere. The opposite declination marks the Tropic of Capricorn. If your astronomy and geography is not up to scratch, imagine holding a pen to a ball about halfway up from its midline and then turning the ball to trace a line around its circumference. The pen point would represent the Sun's position on the days it reaches its highest declination North and the ball would be the Earth. The same can be repeated for the other Tropic.

If you then stuck a map around the ball and squashed it out flat you would get a line from left to right. Here we can see this on a flat map of the globe. The line is always at 23 degrees and 26 minutes of latitude North and South, matching the Sun's highest declination at the Solstices. Therefore this red line is effectively the 'line of Christmas' projected onto the turning globe and is known as The Tropic of Capricorn


It would indeed be fascinating to see what Temples and artifacts lie in locations at this exact latitude (and those of the Tropic of Cancer The line of Easter.

LEMNISCATE
The proper name for the infinity symbol is known as the Lemniscus. How intriguing then that in anatomy this term is used for:
'A bundle of nerve fibers ascending from sensory nuclei in the spinal cord and the rhombencephalon to the thalamus'. This is the part of the body which amongst other things senses vibration.

In mathematics it refers to several things most well known being the Lemniscate of Bernoulli from the family of Cassini Curves, and the Lemniscate of Gerono and you might like to meditate on this applet here Interestingly the philosophers Goethe and Steiner both lectured extensively on the properties of the Lemniscate

Those of you who are less of a 'connect-the-dots' and 'no coincidences' type mind may have completely lost me now. For others all this information will be resonating strongly. What is the link between the sign in the heavens of the path of the Sun and its correspondence to terrestrial life and the mysteries of our existence? Let's continue to look. The infinity sign resembles the number 8. This number has always held occult significance. It relates to the sign of Scorpio, it is the number of pathways in the Buddhist faith, it is the atomic number of oxygen and in physics is known as a magic number ......

Surfing around the Internet I found this:

The number 8 represents infinity. It has the profile of the Mobius strip. In fact the Mobius strip -- a distorted one -- is a circle - The symbol of completion and wholeness. However the figure 8 contains 2 circles therefore 8 represents a completion, like the circle, but on a new level, or another octaves, an end and a beginning. The number of days in a week is 7, but the 8th day, say a Monday, is the beginning of a new week. In nature every 8th wave arriving at the the sea shore is bigger than the rest. In the same way, in music, the 8th note is another octave.

8 hertz, very interestingly, is the brainwave frequency healers and mystics most tune into. Furthermore, 8 hertz is Schumann's Resonance~the frequency of earth (earth vibration). Humans cannot survive without it. Astronauts need a 8 htz generator to maintain health. Life depends on that frequency, otherwise we would not buzz. It's a common alpha frequency meditators frequency slip into for so called 'expanded consciousness' .

8 also ties in closely with DNA groupings 8x8=64. 8x8=64 squares of the I-ching, and the 8x8=64 squares of a chess board (that represent the Universe.)

This continues to illicit synchronous connections because we have already seen that in anatomy the Lemnisci is the seat of vibration. Additionally, before finding this, I had never heard of a Mobius Strip but upon looking it up I see that it has correlations to the shape of interlocking DNA strands.

'Curiouser and curiouser' said Alice in Wonderland. Are the secrets of life and time locked up in the figure 8? Certainly without our Sun tracing this shape, life as we know it would not exist.

It is also possible that linear time was not even a concept familiar to our very ancient ancestors in the way we would automatically presume. All that they were probably aware of was cyclical time. The constant cycles of nature and the heavens.

As Pluto moves into Capricorn, our understanding of the nature of time is set to be transformed. I recently said that I believe this will come about as a result of the Particle Accelerator tests at Cern (see my previous post) I was therefore fascinated to find repeated references on the Internet to the Lemniscate, Enrico Fermi and methods of splitting the atom!

Whilst Physicists come at the problem from their own perspective Astrologers have always known that Science and Spirituality are closer than they have ever been and all 'roads' are leading to the same knowledge, albeit via a different route.

Nature laws and cycles, documented in esoteric and alchemical literature, contain the key that will one day unlock to the door of the temple of knowledge and reveal the mysteries of life. In my next post I will look at the some more symbols associated with the Sun/Earth correspondences.

In my recent newsletter I wrote the following:... Sagittarius corresponds to the passage of consciousness from one state to another. In this respect we can see that Jupiter and Pluto coming together in Sag can speak of a moment pregnant with possibility for a leap in consciousness. Jupiter/Pluto cycles bring issues to the fore that bring you face to face with your moral code and faith.

In another newsletter, one sent out by astrologer Eric Francis, when observing the same Jupiter/Pluto conjunction (a 13 year cycle) he wrote:- I see the truth coming out about something ridiculously obvious..

Eric's words immediately caught my eye because earlier that very week I had discovered that a truth, which once it is heard does indeed seem 'ridiculously obvious', is making its way to people's ears and eyes. It's a truth which does 'force people to confront their faith' and is also so highly symbolic of a Jupiter/Pluto conjunction in the sign of Sagittarius, that it cannot be ignored. Before I elaborate further let me just say this.........

What astrologers across the World are wholeheartedly agreed upon is that this coming conjunction is critical in regard to the emergence of some truth that will, over the course of 2008 and beyond (as Pluto settles into the sign of Capricorn) begin to rock our world and somehow change our view of reality.

I personally believe that the most obvious way that it will impact us on a collective basis, is by causing us to question the nature of our existence with regard to the physical laws which govern it. I have said before that the experiments due to take place with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Geneva will probably be the catalyst*.

Sir Issac Newton was a Capricorn and as Pluto moves further into this sign, and closer to his natal Sun, which coincidentally will be at the exact Jupiter/Pluto opposition point, we can expect a huge resurgence of interest, and possible transformation, in the areas of his discoveries;Universal Gravitation, Classical Optics. Newtonian Mechanics and Infinitesimal Calculus. Albert Einstein was a Pisces and his chart is also significantly highlighted.

Throughout Pluto's sojourn in Capricorn we will also be forced to question the foundation and fundamental truth of some of the ancient traditions that we have built or lives upon. The rulebook may have to be rewritten with regard to the spiritual laws that many of us use to guide our lives by.

Another area of 'reaction' is likely to be in the area of authority; the power base of society. The Monarchy, Presidential office and Policing (police force) systems are all likely to undergo profound change. Already we can witness the ongoing discussion in political circles regarding the legitimate extent of governmental authority in general.

To this end it is of no surprise to me that myself, and many others (my thanks to Katie Smith) have been drawn to a not-for-profit movie released earlier this year. It is gathering viewing momentum and is rocking the foundations of many people's traditional beliefs about the fundamental tenets of Christianity. The film is called Zeitgeist. It is now one of the top ten most viewed film on the Internet and I highly recommend that you watch Part I which deals with the subject of Astrotheology (Theology founded on the movement of Celestial objects, and of the laws which regulate their movements).

The film is over 2 hrs long and divided into three parts with a nine minute introduction. I would like to politely suggest that you do not watch the introduction but go straight to Part I. Once you have seen this, which is approximately 27 minutes long, I can almost guarantee you will make time to watch the entire movie.

I have little comment to make here about Part II and II. The reasons for this will become clear once you have viewed it. My only observation would be that Part I is entirely factual and is a truth long known to students of esoteric literature and astrology. For this reason I am also giving you some links so that you might research it all for yourself. I would also add here that..

A truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. --Arthur Schopenhauer

In the spirit of objectivity however, with regard to Part II and III, I also offer you this quote:

There are two ways to be fooled: One is to believe what isn't so; the other is to refuse to believe what is so. --Soren Kierkegaard

So here it is...

ZEITGEIST THE MOVIE - watch it here

Part I: Starts 9 minutes 45 seconds into the movie. This is on Astrotheology

Part II: Starts 37 minutes into the movie.

Part III: Starts 1 hour 11 minutes into the movie.

Simply drag the movie player along to the required time.


Just a few research links can be found at the following sites but there will be many more:

Sacred Texts

Solar Mythology and The Bible

The Bible and Astrology - What is the truth? ( I suggest you try and overlook all the capitalisation on this site)

The Astronomical Allegories of The Zodiac - Max Heindel (Turn off the music)

The Bible and The Zodiac

The Cross ( for after you have seen the film)

The Three Kings and The Winter Solstice ( again for after you have seen the film)

Finally I'd like to leave you with this very Jupiter/Pluto quote:

One should put aside the conventional outlook that hinges morality, ethics and history on the life of one religious teacher two thousand years ago. In its place one can open the mind to a sense of oneness with the world and all on it. Through rediscovering our heritage of symbols, myths and evolving languages, we can try to attain a deeper understanding and compassion for the world we share.

The birth of the Son.

Happy Solstice and Christmas to you all

* The image at the top shows a virtual image of particles in a LHC which looks remarkably like the basic astrological wheel with its house divisions! The 'injection point' would be the equivalent of the Ascendant ( birth point) in the astrological wheel and the LHC collision points equate to the cross of cardinal signs.

STRAIGHTFORWARD SCORPIO SYMBOLISM

Our detractors, and that includes a large majority of Scientists, just don't get it do they! Astrology is not about some jiggery-pokery where we convene in secret meetings and try and make events in the sky fit with those on Earth. It's simply a symbolic language.

I had a quick Google of the word Symbol and here's what Wiki has to say about it:

Symbols are objects, characters, or other concrete representations of ideas, concepts, or other abstractions. For example, in the United States, Canada, Australia and Great Britain, a red octagon is a symbol for the traffic sign meaning "STOP".

All language is made up of symbols. The word "cat", whether spoken or written, is not a cat, but is a symbol for a cat.

Etymology
The word "symbol" came to the English language by way of Middle English, from Old French, from Latin, from the Greek σύμβολον (sýmbolon) from the root words συν- (syn-) meaning "together" and βολή (bolē) "a throw", having the approximate meaning of "to throw together", literally a "co-incidence".

Now I can't find any proof of this, although I have tried, but it seems to me that the word coincidence must come from the root of Sidus (gen:Sideris), which means stars. We know the word Consider literally means 'with the stars' and there is a branch of astrology known as Sidereal, meaning 'pertaining to the stars'. Therefore to my mind the word coincide probably relates way back in history to co -inSIDE and this has subtly changed over the years.

To Coincide means 'a coming together' and probably has its roots in astrological or astronomical symbolism. (astrology was formerly known as astronomy). When the stars come together in the sky or astrologers look at the meaning of cross aspects in charts, this is known as Syn-astry from the root words συν- (syn-) meaning "together". With ast-ry from aster for Star it means stars together. Obviously I'm no etymologist or botanist, but it seems that Michelmas Daisies, also known as the aster genus, are so called because they look like stars spread around the Earth when they bloom. Now if that isn't symbolic, I don't know what is!



The Aster



Sometimes astrology can seem very convoluted even to astrologers. At heart though it is really so simple to those who can converse in symbols. In ancient times the Egyptians didn't run to their text books to see what the meaning of a planetary conjunction or a comet was. If the Nile flooded every time Sirius had a heliacal rising, or a Pharaoh or leader died every time a comet appeared, guess what, these became symbolic of these events. Just like the Red Stop sign symbol, mentioned above, became a Universal symbol to halt.

Our ancient ancestors livelihood was inextricably linked with their environment, and that included the dome of sky around them. Many of the symbols in use today have their origins in antiquity, when all that existed was the human being, animals and the Earth and sky.

These skywatchers noted that Jupiter, or whatever they called it between them, is a large planet. They also knew that what happened on the Earth whenever Jupiter was prominent, or coincident, with another star or planet appeared to coincide with abundance or growth. Astrologers today still see Jupiter as symbolising large things and conditions of growth, and even evolvement.

You'd need to consult an expert in archaeoastronomy, astrology & ancient egypt to fill in the details of the emergence of symbols over 4,000 years ago but - and here's the point of this post - look what was in the news today :

Many astrologers will have seen this news item and swiftly exclaimed 'Ah-ha'... large (Jupiter) Scorpion, when Sun is in Scorpio bringing these things 'to light'. It really is that literal a translation.

However, there's more. We then cast our gaze skywards (or these days to our ephemeris) and we see Jupiter and the Scorpio planet, Pluto are edging towards a pretty unusual co-insidence.

Large Scorpion, Jupiter/Pluto conjunction. How symbolic!

Now there's something for those who dismiss the Earth/Sky connection to con-sider!

PLUTO AT THE GALACTIC CENTRE

One of the consequences of being an astrologer is that I see meaning, connections and correspondence in every occurrence in life. (Please notice that I wrote ' in life' and not in my life'. There's a subtle but profound difference that is worthy of further contemplation). This week a lady called Claire made contact with me and pointed me towards a website about a society working towards facilitating Higher Consciousness. When you open this site it leads to an introductory video presentation. What struck me about the timing of being given this URL is the fact that Pluto is once again conjoined to the Galactic Centre. Take a look and make the link yourself.

One of the paragraphs of text in this aforementioned presentation cries out for repetition. It states:

Outcomes flow from
What I think and,
What I deem is true
For how I act and
What I accept
Steers the course
That will ensue

That verse if probably one of THE most important messages that one can hear in life. If this is a new concept to you, please read it, re-read it and read again. When the student is ready the teacher will appear!

As some of you who have arrived from my website www.KathrynCassidy.com will know I have three blogs. My main one is 'Collaborate With Fate' and although I don't get to update this Cosmic Cipher one and my Cosmic Ordering Blog as often as I would like, the latter is there purely and simply to expand on the above verse, which stated another way is The Law of Attraction.

Astrology is not a stand alone subject. Anyone with a true understanding of the subject realises that it is simply the 'storefront'. Behind its most well known facade of Sun Signs and predictive techniques, astrology brings together all the laws of the Universe and allows us to apply them on a universal and a very personal basis. As Astrologer Alan Leo wrote in 1910:

The first principle upon which the science of astrology rests is, that the whole Universe is actually what the term implies - a unity; and that a law which is found in manifestation in one portion of the Universe must also be equally operative throughout the whole.

The second principle is, that by a study of the motions and relative positions of the planets the operations of these laws may be observed, measured and determined.

From these two principles, aided by a mind capable of metaphysical grasp of the metaphysical significance of phenomena, the whole science of astrology can be deduced. It is a mistake far too prevalent even among thoughtful and unprejudiced people to suppose that the present interest in astrology is merely the decadent revival of an ancient superstition based entirely on accepted tradition. The study of astrology is a means of comprehending nature's laws.

Although there are many excellent books dealing with the theory of astrological interpretation, as Alan Leo confirms, it is not until one understands some fundamental metaphysical principles that one is able to use the Science for its greatest good. On the website that Claire sent me I found the following and these describe some of those principles:-

EXCERPTS FROM: CONFESSIONS OF A GOD SEEKER - available via the Higher Consciousness site
The New Spiritual Paradigm [page 460]

“Major world religions, continue to mislead.They hide, if indeed they even know, the essential truth that every person is soul, and soul is part of the ONE.The proper measure of the spiritual greatness of any [spiritual] leader is not the extent to which he sees this truth in himself and allows others to marvel in his light. It is the extent to which he helps others to see the light within themselves and rejoice in their collective unity in the ONE…. The challenge of religion is to find a way to establish avenues for movement to higher consciousness….They must clear the minefields so the faithful can move on when ready.This is the redemptive step that would again align them with the Great Work….This book is the first step in a process of providing the conceptual framework allowing soul to move past intermediaries to a direct connection with the ONE.”

Illusion: A Scientific Perspective [pages 319, 320 – 321]

“In 1982, a research team from the University of Paris, headed by physicist Alain Aspect, performed a series of experiments that suggested a holographic paradigm for the world. …[H]is Paris team discovered that sub-atomic particles appear to instantaneously communicate with each other, whether the distance between them is ten feet or ten billion miles. Aspect’s findings carry implications that most scientist are unprepared to accept.[Physicist, David] Bohm, on the other hand, went far ahead of his colleagues and put forth the interpretation that objective reality does not exist, that despite its apparent solidity, the universe is a phantasm, a gigantic and splendidly detailed hologram. In other words, the physical world is an illusion, the full nature of which we are only beginning to understand.”

Pluto's conjunction to the Galactic Centre is bringing profound insights to many. If you are not a regular reader but have just stumbled upon this page you can be sure that you are being guided to a higher consciousness. You are obviously more than ready to receive information that will help you form a new paradigm about life, and transform the way you approach everyday matters. Pluto is inclining you to travel to the centre of your Self!

THE MAYANS & 2012 - Consciousness change

One of my fellow bloggers has a prolific output, posting on an almost daily basis. He rarely takes a vacation. I revealed my feelings of awe at his unswerving commitment to this free service. He confessed that he was tired but, having built up his readership over many years, he was ensuring his readership didn't fall away. On the face of it this sounds very logical, fewer updates, fewer readers. However his comment caused me to recall a phenomenon which I had written about on my Collaborate With Fate Blog back in February 2006. Here is that information again.....

ZIPF'S LAW
This law is known as a power law. Roughly translated it states that the frequency of occurrence of an event will eventually settle down into a harmonic arrangement. and this law can be observed at work in a multitude of events. Amongst the most common are:-

1. Frequency of accesses to web pages
2. Frequency of keyword usage in a search engine
3. Words in the English language
4. For instance, words in Shakespeare’s play Hamlet.
5. Populations of cities
6. Income Distribution amongst the top earning 3% of individuals
7. Size of earthquakes
8. Notes in musical performances
9. Revenue of corporations
10. Gold records by musical artist
11. Internet traffic by site
12. Names in a population

Let's look at number 5 as an example. In 1930 George Kingsley Zipf took note of the population of 50 cities in the United States. He discovered that if New York was the largest, the second largest city had half the population of New York, the third largest had one third the population of New York and so on down until the 50th city which had exactly one fiftieth the population of New York. This holds true today and across the series of examples above and many others too ......

What has this got to do with my fellow bloggers industriousness? Well I had already been noticing that Zipf's law, or at least some law, was applying to my web pages. The amount of traffic I was getting on my three blogs and website was maintaining an even mean number, often right down to identical numbers each day, week in and week out regardless of my updates. There have been occasional outstanding peaks but, when these do occur the ratio between the four sites remains fairly constant. Ah, you might say, you have a regular readership who tend to check into each of your sites when they visit but no, this is not the case. In common with most sites these days I can track new visits, returning visits and visitor paths and see them laid out on a graph (don't worry I don't know who you are!).

From this and from my knowledge of harmonics, it seems that each of us bloggers fit into a cosmic matrix that already dictates at some level, what our readership levels will be as a direct correspondence of where we fit into the whole. This must have it's basis in the Law of Vibration i.e. what energy I instill in each post has a corresponding attraction level, not tied to the content per se.

We already know that our planets are part of a mathematical relationship or harmony (a harmony of the spheres) as can be witnessed in Bodes Law Flora, fauna and other facets of nature respond to cyclical and vibrational prompts but what was noticed by Zipf was that our entire Universe orders itself in these natural rhythms. This leads me neatly into Mayan Cosmology/Astrology and 2012.

The Mayans appear to have been acutely aware of the harmonic and cyclical nature of time and space. Indeed Maya divination was built entirely around numbers. Whilst researching some current loose ends about their 2012 prophecy I came across a wonderful site and I would like to share some of it's content with you. This article was written in 2002 by David Wilkins and I'm sure, due to the importance of what is written, the site owner , Scott Mandelker, will not mind me 'lifting' this portion:

With the work of Dr. S.V. Smelyakov and Y. Karpenko on the Mayan Calendar [6], we may well have the "smoking gun" to prove scientifically that a fundamental energetic change is occurring throughout the entire Solar System at this time, fostering a crucial link between the local effects on the Sun, Earth and other planets and the effects upon the consciousness of humanity. Since distant ancient times, all of these prophesied changes have been associated with the culmination of a 25,920-year master cycle known as "precession". In Shift of the Ages [10], we demonstrate how this cycle can be seen in the long-term activity of the Sun [3] as well as the rotation of the Earth's axis. We also show how the Mayan Calendar cycle, at 5,125 years in length, is exactly one-fifth of the precession. [10] John Major Jenkins, one of the speakers at our upcoming event in Louisville, KY on April 26-28, 2002, has demonstrated that on Dec. 21, 2012, the end-date for this cycle, the long-term "precessional" orientation of the Earth's axis is perfectly aligned with the center of the galaxy. [4] And now, Dr. Smelyakov et al. have added dramatic new evidence to the case in their paper entitled "The Auric Time Scale and the Mayan Calendar." [6]

This article you are now reading is the very first account of this groundbreaking study to be published worldwide, other than the paper itself, which has remained completely obscure from the Internet-based metaphysical culture at large. This is almost certainly due to its degree of sophistication, making it almost indecipherable to those not educated in physics and mathematics. Smelyakov's discovery is based on his earlier investigations of the ratio known as "phi" or the Golden Section and how it unifies and correlates the following phenomena [6]:

all the fundamental phenomena in biology (cell and physiological rhythms)
cyclical events in botany (vegetative cycles, etc.)
cycles in zoology (counts of head of livestock, number of fishes caught, etc.)
meteorological cycles of the weather
the physics of the movements of the Sun and the Earth
the ebb and flow of human emotion as seen in financial market activities (Kondratiev cycle [2] and others)
events through history such as wars and levels of population
cycles of criminal behavior
earthquakes and other epic natural disasters
cycles of sudden variation in Carbon-14 radiation content in tree rings

Those who have studied sacred geometry or read my books and / or others on the subject are well aware of the importance of the phi ratio, which has a value of 1.6180339. This ratio can be easily seen in the relationships between common "Diatonic" musical frequencies as well as the natural proportions of growing bacteria clusters, plant life, animal life and the human body. When drawn geometrically, it appears as the classic spiral shape that we so often see on the seashells at the beach. Furthermore, the importance of phi was enshrined in many ancient structures throughout the world. As a ratio, it perfectly balances the forces of expansion and contraction, which can be demonstrated geometrically or mathematically, and its connection to music shows that it is a fundamental characteristic of the behavior of vibration. [10, 11]

Smelyakov and others assert that the vibrations of phi actually ripple through the very "fabric" of time and space itself.... To continue reading this fascinating article please go HERE

I guess this article ( in its entirety) comes about as close to concurring with my personal beliefs, and my ongoing research, about 2012 as is possible. Simply stated I believe that what we are leading up to is global awareness of the perfect order of the universe, it's non linear nature and our indivisibility from the 'whole'. In which case astrology is about to enjoy a resurgence as it is the only discipline I know of that deals solely with these harmonies in the Universe.

When we are cognizant of the underlying Laws of the Universe we become aware that none of us need 'push the river' - it's going to flow by itself, but astrology can gives clues as to where it's heading and what boat you are currently in. As Wilcox goes onto say ' What we are moving towards is a literal shift in the basic characteristics of matter, energy and consciousness' - I say, that's Pluto in Capricorn and Uranus in Pisces for you!

Fellow bloggers - take heed, resisting the flow is simply wasted energy. If I believe my readership numbers will fall - guess what happens - they do. My intentions and thoughts create the reality I experience. My beliefs (energy state) alter my position in the matrix, or web, which has inherent order. The earth changes and everything else that we are experiencing in these turbulent times are due to the shifting energy levels within each of us. As our consciousness changes, so does our environment/Planet and vice versa . I'll return to this subject as and when I have more to share.

Thanks for reading.

THE ASTROLOGY OF AMERICA'S DESTINY

Every so often one comes across a site on the Internet that is so replete with information and fascinating articles that it turns you goggle eyed and causes hours to pass by in what seems like seconds.

One such site that I have just discovered is called Cyberworld Khaldea This site alone has consumed days of my time with a plethora of interesting features and the ability to peruse the inside of many of the books on sale there. However it is the link to the Rudhyar Archival Project -a site dedicated to the work of Dane Rudhyar - an astrological legend - and the multitude of links which offer access to the books and articles penned by the great man himself, that truly blew me away.

If you don't already know, Rudhyar was one the most important astrologers of the 2oth century who left a substantial legacy of Art, Music, Literature and Philosophy.

When someone can express a thought or concept better than you ever can, there is no point in trying to compete. So rather than attempting what would inevitably be a substandard interpretation or re-write of Rudhyar's observations, I will let you hear it direct from the source........

Please do visit the site links listed above and from within those sites here are my favourite articles and books:

THE ASTROLOGY OF AMERICA'S DESTINY. This is an online book with a pay to view honor system. I have linked you directly into the opening page here that talks about the birthchart used for the USA.

THE RHYTHM OF WHOLENESS Again this an online book. Please do use the pay to read honor system and give back to the foundation for the privilege of being able to read this material. Alternatively purchase the book for your shelves direct from the site.

THE PLANETARY ALPHABET - READING YOUR CELESTIAL NAME Fabulous and check out the links on the left hand side too once on this page.

THE MAGIC OF TONE & THE ART OF MUSIC My out and out favourite. An absolute classic and masterpiece that every astrologer should read and assimilate. Here's quick teaser that will leave you wanting to read more:

Chapter 2 refers to inaudible Sound as vibratory power, which when mobilized and released brings archetypal forms and creative ideas into concrete manifestation. Sound is, in ancient religions and cosmologies, the divine creative power, the energy inherent in the creative Word, the Logos. It is also the power of will, which in a mysterious way makes it possible for an idea (and particularly a decision) to compel the muscles of the body (those of the limbs, vocal organs, and eyes) to move in the precise way required for making the idea or decision work out...........

Please help support this site by visiting their online shop here

And may I say a big thank you to the people who provide magnificent resources such as this one for the benefit of the astrological and metaphysical community.
