Purpose Or Exceptional Purpose?

So there is just one thing I need to get out of the way before we begin. I need to crumple-up any notion you may have in your head of those dastardly Sun Sign horror-scope columns — and I mean horror as in

h-o-r-r-o-r

— as having anything to do with the precious science of astrology. They are completely bogus, not real, fake. There is a system to how they write those things, but the system is not based on anything real. So, please don’t waste your time, or especially your money, on those things. Don’t let anyone program your brain like that. They are simply rubbish — OK?

So, I’m going to give you a little bit of my research here, so you can understand what astrology is, and what the astrology chart actually portrays.

Firstly, the zodiac that’s used in Western systems of astrology has nothing at all to with fixed stars or star constellations in space. That old belief does not not hold water anymore in any system apart from perhaps the Jyotish system of India. They still use those stars. The Western-culture zodiac has enitirely different roots that could not have been even imagined in ancient times. I’m currently writing a book about the science behind all this, but I’ll give you some snippets along the way here.

So, let’s begin at the beginning. Your astrology chart is a snapshot of the solar system through the lens of the Earth’s electromagnetic field. Now, this snapshot was taken at the moment when you drew your first breath, as this is the moment when you became separated from your mother’s protective energy field. You experienced your outer environment independently. And that first breath set the “hard-wiring”, if you will, in your brain. Your brain’s neural net was in resonance with the Earth’s field in that moment. (This is a really important point.)

You can think of it as, perhaps, a kind of symphony of frequencies playing throughout the solar system—there’s like a harmony of resonance there. And it changes all the time. And you resonated with one particular moment in that entire symphony—because it was a familiar set of frequencies.

The brain, as you’re probably aware, functions on frequencies and resonance. So, everything we experience from our outer world is actually just a bunch of wave-forms — they’re frequencies that go into the brain, and the brain interprets the familiarity of those frequencies and puts it into pictures or sounds, or whatever apparatus we’re using, or a scent, or a touch. And that’s how we create our world. So, this resonance thing is really important.

So, because this was a familiar set of frequencies for you, you will always resonate with those frequencies throughout your life, as they’re your Karmic imprints from the past, and I mean a deeper Past — as karma is a function of cause and effect. It’s like, you know, if you want good effects, then have to create good causes. But that’s another story we’ll get into in another episode.

But, basically, here it is: everything in our universe functions via the process of cause and effect. I do not believe in randomness or chaos. I think chaos is simply a name we give to a mechanism or process we don’t yet understand. We used think that weather was random chaos. But everything in the universe, every little particle, is striving to find balance with everything else in its environment. This is the basis of electricity.

And I’m not the first person to state that the universe is process. The universe essentially functions on harmony, not chaos. And this is basic ancient Taoist philosophy, from the great Chinese philosophers of antiquity.

So, due to the familiarity you had felt with those frequencies, your astrology chart must be a map of your past, a map of the causes and conditions that had led to your birth. So, we have to conclude that the first observation here is that there was a past. I’m not talking about your experiences in the womb. I’m talking about a thread of consciousness that is your memory. A thread that stretches back through centuries.

One of my life-long studies and curiosities has been the rebirth of the mindstream, the deathlessness of consciousness. The reason for my fascination is that as a small child, around the age of 4, I had a vivid recollection of the last part of my last life, and I remember telling people about it. But of course, they didn’t listen. So by the age of 7, I vowed to prove that we come back after we die. And I believe I’ve done that now. And that’s part of my research, which is something we’ll get into at another time.

But over many years, that past-life memory has been validated by various independent psychics and mediums, by Kinesiology, and by Astrology, itself. In fact, I have my astrology chart from that last lifetime, when I was born in London in the early 20th century, and it matches the information I’d been given about my purpose in that life. I’m currently writing a book about Reincarnation, based on my exclusive research, and that will be free in the digital version — of course, you can always pay me for the paper and audio, that would be nice! — but the digital version will be free because I want everyone to read it, including the skeptics, because this is really important research, and it’s the kind of research that’s never been done before.

But the reason I bring up the Past here, is that when it comes to Purpose, we cannot know where we are going until we know where we have been. Our Purpose, and especially our Exceptional Purpose, are dependent upon a strong motivation to heal or finish something that has been undone for a very long time.

We’ve had experiences in a deeper Past that now grant us the gift of wisdom that other people may not have in that area. And it’s often this wisdom that we tend to discount within ourselves. We have to remember that what is obvious to us may not be so obvious to others.

And this brings us to Purpose and Exceptional Purpose.

Living with purpose is to have a goal in life, and the drive and discipline to achieve that goal. Life itself becomes the challenge. And that challenge may be personal.

But an Exceptional Purpose has a broader vision. It’s a purpose that is unique in some way, and that will make a difference to many other people or beings on this planet. It’s a legacy. And quite usually, in our earlier years, we do get the clues about that, but our present reality pins us down to a mundane expression —what I call the “supermarket mentality”.

You know, you can be having one of those magical days when realisations appear in your mind, you begin to see everything differently, you feel a kind of spiritual presence within you. But you need to grab some food at the supermarket. And you walk through those big glass sliding doors, and within a matter of seconds — WHAMMO — you’re back in the mundane world, thinking about mundane problems, past issues, and the prices of apples. The magic disappears.

Here’s a brief example from a long time ago:

I had a client who presented with disassatifaction regarding his current work. He wasn’t happy, and he was looking for something more meaningful.

This is the first thing I said to him, which sprang right out at me from his birth chart: I said, “You’re here to clarify people’s views”. I then asked him what he was actually doing. He said, “I run my own business”. So I asked what it was. He replied, “I wash windows”. I said, “Yes, you’re clarifying people’s views but not quite in the way I think you could be doing it”. He was working on the physical level, rather than the mental-emotional. He’d had a greater attribute to help others, and that’s what was being stifled.

And here’s a good analogy that was dropped into my head a long time ago. It’s a useful way of looking at perception. It’s about a knife.

Now, when I say “knife”, what do you see as it’s purpose? How would you use it?

I’ll explain:
You can take the same knife and give it to 3 different people.
The first person sees it only as a weapon, to protect himself. That’s his concept of “knife”. He can’t think beyond that point.

The second person sees it as a kitchen utensil, she can now use it to slice the vegetables into bite-size pieces, to cook the stew much more quickly for the family. And that’s a more nurturing way of using the knife.

But the third person sees the knife entirely differently. He is so grateful for the gift of the knife, because he has always wanted to carve a beautiful statue of a Buddha that may inspire people to meditate and live more spiritual and peaceful lives for perhaps the next 200 years.

You see? It’s the same knife.

The first person, who sees the knife as a weapon, is living without purpose, is only waiting for life to come at him. A lot of people live like this. It’s sort of like being a marble in a pinball machine. They just get bounced around from thing to thing and place to place without any real direction or purpose. They just let life wash over them. And it’s not really a great way to take advantage of a precious human life.

But, anyhow, the second person, who uses the knife in the kitchen, is living with purpose, which is fine, but it’s a short-term result that has to be repeated every day.

But the third person has moved beyond self and those close to him. He’s embracing a larger family, and he wants to make a lasting impression in people’s lives for a long time to come, beyond his own limited lifespan. He’s moving the culture! And this is exceptional purpose.

Now, your astrology chart can be read like this, but it depends on the level of awareness of the astrologer, or the awareness-level of clients that an astrologer chooses to work with. That’s why you’ll always get a different reading of your chart from different astrologers. It’s the same chart, but it can be interpreted and explained, and also used, at different levels — like the various storey-levels of a mandala used in meditation practices. A mandala is a flat plan of a 3-dimensional palace. We start at the base and we gradually work our way up to Enlightenment at the top. Take a look at some photographs, if you haven’t been there, of Borobudur in Java. It’s a gigantic mandala in stone. It’s a magnificent building, so take a look at that.

Anyway, the subconscious mind only has one way of seeing something, because it’s based on memory. But being more conscious and deliberate about your motivation in life, will free you to see opportunities you’d otherwise miss. So consciousness is everything.
