THE EMPEROR # 4

 

The Emperor or King is all about POWER

He sits on his Throne, or HOT SEAT, and symbolizes the leader, God/King, shaman healer, visionary. 

In the Fisher King,story n the Grail Legend, the King was identified totally with the health and well being of his land and country.

Modern leaders do not have visionary, shamanic, healing characteristics.

Not  much has changed in the Western World relating to power,

power is of the mundane, illusory world of material success.

Most leaders today serve only themselves, not their land or their people,

seduced by money, power, controlled by lust and their ego's

they abuse their power, tax and steal from the poor, and rape their own lands

they do not have authentic power, they use a kind of POWER-OVER heirarchical system.

Now there are self- made Emperors everywhere, How long does their power last?

Is it all about money, or is there a deeper responsability and inner power?

MEANING

Where is your power? Do you give it away to false authorities? Your Boss, spouse, friends?

Do you give it away to consumerism? or your false self?

Do you stand up to those in power who are abusing it?

What is success to you? What would you do if you were KING?

The King needs to have all 4 elements in balance to have real power,

Every man and woman has an inner King who symbolizes active creative power.

The Emperor is ARIES- action oriented.

Use your power wisely, power is not power-over but power from within.

Are you happy with the leader of your company, country or city?

How are you going to act to make sure they use their power wisely?

Christmas Holidays, Smokin' Astrology from Tara Greene

Well it’s here already! The astrology outlook for Christmas Eve 2012 and for Old St. Nick looks smokin’

 

IT’s a quiet Christams Eve- Very earthy and Sensual with a Taurus Moon

You will surely be stuffed, although I am also aware of the poor who don’t have very much to share,

the essence of the oft told  A Christmas Carol  by Charles Dickens

Christmas is an ancient pagan ritual. ALso part of the Saturnalia that the Greeks and Romans celebrated over 2,000 years ago,

The Moon is Trine Mars at the critical degree 29 of Capricorn @ 9:59 pm PST/ 12:58 am Dec 25 EST

Capricorn is ruled by SATURN, hence the Saturnaliaconnection of Ancient and new.

This aspect is action, hot, passion and the last degree of  the last earth sign Capricorn is all about earthing, building, structuring,finalizing, completing in the 3 D realm. Act on building your dream, your highest honored standing in the world.

My sense of it since the Dec 21 Solstice is all your very deepest intentions will manifest instantly,

so be very very aware of what you want to build, what you wish for.

The goddess is alive and Magic is Afoot. 

Capricorn hoof shoes

NOt a lucky rabbit’s foot, but Capricorn hoof feet 

Yes they also have gun power,and in the light of the recent Gun control laws, I’d say guns will be underfoot.

There are two sides to that story, won’t go into that now

MOON saunters into GEMINI 11:13 pm PST

Xmas DAY DEC 25 

Moon enters GEMINI Dec 25 @ 2:13 am EST

Moon conjuncts Jupiter @ 4:18 pm PSt/7:18 pm EST

so a very Jolly Xmas as Jupiter is like Santa Claus, bountiful, optimistic. JUPITER/MOON in GEMINI is very high spirits, lots of light chat and fun giddy god humoured times, but Jupiter overdoes things, so be careful about drinking and driving!

St. Patrick’s Day, the Luck ‘O the Irish by Tara Greene

by Tara Greene Astrology Psychic & More Copyright 2011- eternity and beyond.

St. Patrick, Catholic Irish Saint,is known for driving the snakes out of Ireland. That story is actually a cultural re-visioning. St. Patrick, identified with the shamrock, was no Saint and not lucky at all for the pagans who worshipped the Goddess. Ireland since time out of mind was a pagan, Wiccan, Druid, Nature, Goddess worshipping land. These people were demonized and ripped off by St. Paddy.



St. Paddy is NOT Irish. Born in Scotland to Roman parents around 387 AD. Taken prisoner at 14, he was sent to Ireland as a slave. He studied the language and learned the customs of the people, original Nature loving, pantheistic earth worshippers.



As the story goes, Patrick prayed to God. He had a dream he was to leave Ireland but the Irish people were calling him back. He studied to be a priest. He became a Bishop and was sent back to Ireland to teach the Gospel. He arrived at Slane on March 25, 433. Patrick converted many thousands of people including Irish Kings who were moved {or threatened} upon hearing Patrick’s message. He himself had many disciples who were all later canonized. He preached for over 40 years, apparently worked many miracles, and wrote of his love for God in his confessions. He lived in poverty, travelled and endured much suffering and died March 17, 461 AD. at Saul, where he had built his first church. It’s 1,550 years since he died.



THE SHAMROCK


Patrick used the shamrock, as the symbol of the holy Trinity. The SHAMrock or clover {note the sham pun in shamrock, puns are always give a ways} is originally an ancient PAGAN SYMBOL of the GODDESS, the original Holy TRINITY, the TRIPLE GODDESS, whose phases we see as the Moon waxing and waning.



The Triple Goddess, like the Roman God Janus, who was also an overlay of the original Goddess worshipping religions, represents the past present and future. Christianity like Hinduism, Judaism, Islam always incorporated former religions but then skews the original meaning, usually inferring the opposite.

Catholic pagan symbol Sheila Na Gig


St. Patrick was famous for driving the snakes out of Ireland, meaning he drove the pagans out/converted them. The snake is a euphemism; the snakes symbolize the Goddess, rebirth, sexuality, eternity, and wisdom. Snakes were always her honoured symbol. In the re-writing of the Goddess history, the propaganda popularly known as the Bible, tells how in Genesis, the snake was turned into evil and Eve made to be seen as wicked, the original sinner, forever dooming women to hardship in birth, and never able to repent.

Cretan Snake goddess worhsipped for thousands of years


It is the worst most wicked, horrible, most ridiculous LIE, filled with self-hatred, hatred of life, divorced from nature. It was of course built on the foundations of Judaism and the old testament which was the historical very violent story of the crushing of the Goddess religion, the defamation and degradation of the Feminine.



Everything the Goddess stood for, love of Nature, the Feminine relating principles, honouring life, children, sexuality etc. was made bad, indecent, devil worship by the Catholic Church and the Bible.



Christians thank him the conversion of the ancient Irish pagans. But in the name of Christ who tolerated all peoples, honoured women and preached love of thy neighbour, pagans especially women,who were labelled witches and devil worshippers,were tortured to convert, and had their properties and rank stolen from them.

To some Pagans, wiccans, druids, Goddess worshippers St. Patrick is a despised person who drove the Irish people from their original faith. Some Wiccans may actually enjoy the celebration because of its “hidden” Pagan meaning, and smile when they see devout Christians wearing the shamrock, the Goddess’symbol proudly.



As in the Mists of Avalon, one of my favourite books, you can buy it through my site on AMAZON the re-telling of the Arthurian and Grail legends from the original Pagan Goddess worshipping aspect, the Goddess in any name is still Her energy. Goddess worship is earth honouring, egalitarian, matriarchal. more info about Tara, the goddess



Just as the white people carry a collective karmic debt and shame for destroying Indigenous peoples earth worshipping religion and cultures. In Canada,there is now a token giving back, as in the Queen Charlotte Island being renamed in their indigenous tongue and land treaties give native people back the lands and bones or historical relics taken in colonialized plunder, as in Egypt and China that were stolen from them.


Perhaps we should rethink St. Patrick when we’re out in the pub drinking green beer, wearing shamrocks, and singing When Irish Eyes Are Smilin’ and Oh Danny Boy and at least toast THE GODDESS. Because as She says: “All acts of love and beauty are my worship.”



And speaking of Ireland. The name Tara, popularly connected to the Hills of Tara, and the Kings of Tara is originally a Goddess name. Tara, whose ancient worship continues today,She is still worshipped daily in India and Tibet. Green Tara whose name is originally SITARA, means the Stars. Therefore she is just like the Egyptian Goddess of the sky, where all life originated, the goddess Nut, or Nuit, aka the Milky Way Galaxy. Hey we don’t call it a Guyaxy.



Sitara, her name means the Galaxy, all that is, She is the original creatress, Mother Nature. The Sitar is her heavenly music, the music of the cosmos. Her worship is so ancient and widespread it ran from India all the way to Ireland.

In English Tara =Terra in Latin meaning The EARTH. Eartha or Artha in Sanskrit means the Earth. All the names have an etymological root from Sanskrit considered to be a holy language. So in India and Tibet the mantra, the prayers for Tara invoke her vibration, as chanting OHM is considered to be the original word of God. Tara actually has 21 different manifestations, colours and dances representing her powers. Green Tara is Mother Nature.


Chanting her mantra or saying these words brings protection.



Om Tara Tu Tara Tura Swoha. The Tura is pronounced Tooray.



For Japan and all the desecration of Her Planet please chant these words to divine Goddess Tara.

Blessings
