THE METAVERSAL WATERWEEK FORECAST
ASSIAH, THE WORLD OF EARTH
-EARTHWEEK-
October 22nd to October 31st
It's Earthweek, in where we experience Earth, in the kabbalistic World of Form, Assiah. Go forth into the World and observe what you have created. Miraculous satisfaction. The ancient Celtic festival that is now Halloween marked a time where the gates of the underworld opened and spirits mixed with humans in the corporeal world. It was a magical celebration of life and death. Just as the life giving Sun traveled to the nether lands on its wintry southern sojourn, so did the souls of those who had perished with it. Ahead were the days of the long nights and as increasing darkness engulfed his world, man dealt with the darkness of his soul. Jupiter joins the Sun and Mercury in Scorpio on Tuesday. This expansive planet in such an emotionally intense sign produces a mystical alchemy expressed by some unique and powerful individuals. Nudge Scorpio over the edge and watch the glass skull explode. You cannot help but love this spectacle, this supernovan cranial debacle, so guileless and indulgent. Such a stark lustre to inhabit, you degenerate stars. The body is the platform, the 3-D projection of billions of seperate processes going on at any given moment. Earth is the shared Illusion that these elements combine to create a real domain we affectionately refer to as the World. Personally,
I Love the World.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 24
The Day of the Moon in Assiah, the World of Earth. The stones attributed to Luna are Moonstones, and her metal is Silver. Lunar scents are Jasmine and Sandalwood. The lunar orb being receptive and reflective, focuses the qualities of the signs and other planets to our Lightcraft. The Lunar center, and it's intimate connection with the Holographic Image Projection System, is not only the foundation for the astral plane, but is the fiery aspect of astral energy itself. According to occult science, the angels are the guardians of the seed atoms, or photons. The activities of the angels are directed to the maintenance of plant, animal. and human life on earth. To this end, their forces are focused by the wandering Moon through the twelve signs of the zodiac. Thus as the Moon measures the tides of the earth (physically and astrally), so also does she measure the soul's passage from the shores of the dream realm in eternity through the waters of the womb to the world of time, to the door of the tomb. Today is the Leo last quarter Moon (1 Leo 44) at 6:17 pm. PDT also emphasizing the beginning of the end of the current lunar cycle prior to the New Moon in Scorpio on Nov 1.
The last quarter is where we separate the wheat from the chaff, and let the chaff go. But with Sun and Moon in fixed signs (Leo and Scorpio), letting go is difficult. This Moon family began on July 29, 2003. Among the many major events then were the Senate passing a terrible energy bill, called by many The Dirty Air Bill, Athens attorneys charging Tony Blair with "crimes against humanity" at the Hague International Criminal Court, and a CAFTA meeting in New Orleans. A tantrum in a tantric tremendum breathes new life into a squalid marriage consecrated by the usual mundanities. And in the din of inequity, we practiced telepathic Sirian holography for the surly droves. Loving acceptance of ourselves supports self-forgiveness. When we are truly forgiving and loving ourselves then we can truly love and forgive others. The usual tendency is to take a cylindrical organic object, say, a weasel or a zucchini, and plunge it into the soft yielding folds. To be doing so is not unlike the doing of anything else entirely distinct from everything on earth.
The Sabian Symbol for 2 Leo is:
"AN EPIDEMIC OF MUMPS. The spreading power of individual crises through a collectivity. The infectious spread of individual experiences."
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25
That's why they burn your bridges, so ruffles won't have ridges, and pigeons won't have privileges like doves do."
The Day of Mars in Assiah, the World of Earth. The stones attributed to Mars are Rubies and Garnets and his metal is Iron. In it's earthly manifestation. Martian power appears as willpower, impulsiveness, courage, and daring, and as sexual energy with which to possess and fertilize the Eternal Feminine. Astrological tradition says that Mars the Warrior is not comfortable in bucolic Taurus. The reasoning is simply that this planet of "go" isn't at its best in the sign of "go slow, go very slow." Earthy Taurus is a fixed sign. It occupies the middle of the spring (in the Northern Hemisphere) and symbolizes the sweetness of burgeoning plant life. Taurus doesn't want to go anywhere. It's fine where it is. The challenge is that Mars doesn't like to stand still. It lives for action, not the couch potato life of Taurus. It may, therefore, be a bit more difficult to get new projects off the ground. This is a period in which a solid foundation and a plentiful supply of fuel are required to get your Lightcraft off the launch pad.
Tonight Jupiter enters Scorpio, the start of a one-year journey through this dynamic sign. Jupiter in Scorpio attracts both money and people in high places. Scorpio is a super creative sign, and interested in the bottom line. Jupiter there can be very successful, as long as he doesn't get carried away with greed and self-importance. Scorpio now becomes the most dominant sign. Jupiter allied with Sun is an unbeatable dynamic duo. Luck will increase for all Scorpio Sun Sign people during the coming year. But they will have to work for it. And do some releasing. The fixed sign grand cross begins in earnest now. Today it revolves around the Pallas/Mercury duo in Scorpio, a very smart and focused pair. Stubborn Taurus Mars, swimming against the current as it moves retrograde, opposes them. Crossing them are Leo Moon opposing a powerful stationary Neptune in Aquarius. Peak oil is no longer an abstract. The people are facing its truth and consequences at the gas pump. There is great creative energy in a fixed cross. But it must be focused (priorities), and we must be willing to surrender old ways. Otherwise it can degenerate into fear, conflict, dithering, and dead ends.
We enter a portal of tremendous opportunity to create a new and better society. Today marks the monthly conjunction of the Moon with Saturn 11 Leo at 12:13 pm PDT and is visible 5°" northwest of Saturn before dawn energizing what we are bringing into form through the Leo Mysteries over the next couple of years. Leo reminds us that we are all expressions of divinity and ultimately we can be nothing less though we often make choices that appear less than divine. The Hopi Elders remind us "We are the ones we have been waiting for." Jupiter enters Scorpio at 7:53 pm PDT. This is the first time in 12 years that expansive Jupiter has passed through this realm. For those with a strong Scorpio emphasis on their natal charts you will be on the leading edge of this transit experiencing new edges, new visions, new insights, new truths and experiences that are intended to increase your personal life force for the purpose of bringing spirit into matter for an orgasmic ecstatic experience. Karma Yoga, the "Yoga of Action", is associated with your Lightcraft's power center, the Third Chakra. The Fire in the Belly. "Karma" means action, a special kind of mindful action that stems from non-attachment, selfless service without thoughts of personal gain or recognition. Whether you are scrubbing toilets or performing brain surgery, both actions are equal when performed with the attitude of compassion, love, and devotion to the Metaverse and it's inhabitants.
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26
The Day of Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods, in Assiah, the World of Earth. The stones attributed to Mercury are Opals and his metal is of course, Quicksilver. Where Mercury is present, there are no boundaries to ideas. You can take mine into your head as if they were your own. Mercury reminds us that there is a certain dissolving of ownership, a "communion", in all communication and learning. Of the mind, what can we say is genuinely ours and ours alone? Ultimately, all language is a kind of mimetic thievery: the acquisition of most knowledge requires liberal stealing from the wisdom and experience of others. This planet of communication gets down to the depths whenever it's in Scorpio. The mind melds with emotions, descending into the body, into the past and into life's mysteries. This can be a very powerful period for talking about difficult issues regarding relationships, money and mortality. Psychological awareness is more acute now, as perceptions take us under the covers of the obvious, seeking hidden meaning and motivations.
The second level of the Scorpio pyramid is the level of the Snakes. There are fewer of them then there are Scorpions ( and even fewer Eagles) These snakes are exceptionally thin, and either extremely swift or completely motionless. One of my strangest Scorpio experiences was coming across a huge mating-ball of such serpents. One moment it would be writhing wildly; the next, utterly still, like an overgrowth of vines or roots. The snakes were eyed, but without mouths. Most were of a uniform blackness, no sign of scales. On some, I observed herringbone patterns along the back. Others are marked by parallel circular bands. One had a meandering line of a relatively light shade running from the base of its head to the tip of its tail. My presence, by the way, had no evident effect upon their activity. Neptune (14 Aquarius) Stations Direct at 4:27 pm PDT. A planetary station either direct or retrograde is an in-between-the-worlds space providing an opportunity for changes to be quickly and powerfully facilitated. This often feels confusing and unsettling because it is unknown territory especially when Neptune is involved. Neptune cannot pray while being looked at. It can duel fervently. It can sit for hours with a jigsaw puzzle, the pieces unmoved. It cannot understand more than a few words of English. It can "spraggle upon waggle", but not as well as a cat. It cannot be seen with one eye, unless observed through a splitter-lens. It can be exercised methodically. It can listen with apparent interest to children practicing scales. It cannot scale a wall or a fish. It is helpful to pay close attention to your feelings and if they are irritable, out-of-sorts, uncertain, etc. then put off acting on them for the next few days. Give yourself permission to be with these feelings, to move them in your body through sound and movement and let them teach you more about yourself. Neptune cannot be weaned prematurely or circumcised without sedation lest it become traumatized and even crestfallen. It can jump and frisk about, usually with ensuing funk and sulkiness. It can dream with sophistication. It can mimic car horns. It cannot live without wood. So this is a time for radical new ways of doing things beyond rational logic that are divinely inspired from within.
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27
The Day of Jupter in Earthweek, Assiah, the World of Earth. The stones attributed to Jupiter are Lapis Lazuli and Turquoise and it's metal is Brass. Do you live in an area where your view of the horizons are blocked by buildings, trees, etc.? I want you to actively seek a lookout point today, from where you can see the vastness of the sky, be it the top of a parking garage, a mountain or hilltop, it doesn't really matter, as long as you expand your personal viewpoint from your normal everyday experience. See as much sky as you can. Jupiter/Zeus is the king of the Roman/Greek sky gods. The principle is about allowing the expansive qualities of ambiguity, contradiction, and movement which allow variety to spice your life. Scorpio is the most intense sign. It conjures up our deepest fears, as we deal with our psychological black hole of vulnerability. Only by facing these uncertainties do we gain mastery over ourselves. Scorpio, the archetypal sign of birth and death, works at the subterranean levels of survival. Fear of the dark is a childhood condition. Jupiter, the renowned guru, shows that whilst there is an innate wisdom in treating the unknown with respectful caution, only by shining a torch into our own abyss do we reveal our greater potential. Understanding that most of our fear is a belief system, and having Jupiter, the king of wisdom, expand our knowledge beyond the fear factor, is the difference between sailing off the end of the world and sending a rocket to Scorpio's modern ruler, Pluto. Knowledge conquers fear, just as light evaporates darkness. One who varied between both worlds was the renowned occultist Aleister Crowley. Showing a developed sense of Jupiterian humor, Crowley modestly claimed to be the Devil incarnate and wore the numbers 666 across his forehead. But true to the spiritual mentor that is Jupiter, he rose to prominence as a leading esoteric teacher.
Crowley was at one time head of the Golden Dawn, a gathering of occultists drawn from the European glitterati. Like Crowley, the "guru" quality of Jupiter, placed in hypnotic Scorpio, has the potential to produce the most magnetic cult leaders. Former used car salesman Werner Erhard proved a true Phoenix from the ashes, as he began an obsessional crusade across the world changing others, and becoming an instant millionaire in the process. His trademarked EST self change workshops eventually led to the blatantly Scorpionic business name of Transformational Technologies. Even more influential than Erhard was metaphysician Ron L. Hubbard. Hubbard's seminal work Dianetics became the "bible" of the new Church of Scientology. His reprogramming became a worldwide cult with many of the rich and famous hopping aboard. More recently, Deepak Chopra is another of the new age gurus assisted by a Jupiter in Scorpio placement. These people are about change, at a deep level, and they took what Jupiter in Scorpio offered personally. Jupiter in Scorpio over the next year will provide the same transformational energy on a Metaversal level that anyone can tap into. But keep in mind that Scorpio doesn't do things by half measure. This has to be an all or nothing approach. Commitment and absolution is what we're talking about. Moon enters Virgo 3:28 am PDT transmitting the mysteries from the archetypal realm of the natural seasonal cycles and rhythms of the Earth and Sky. Attuning ourselves to the patterning of the natural cycles assists us in living more easily in natural harmony with all life.
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28
Venus, the planet of love and beauty, is off to adventure in experience-seeking Sagittarius. Lust for life and expansion of the boundaries of pleasure are supported now. Love is about expanding limits here. We may give up some of the comfortable patterns of the past and risk relationship safety for new levels of experience. Love needs to grow now; it will not stand still. Travel, learning and a taste for all that's foreign may be heightened. It's hard to stick to the old routine when the planet of pleasure hits the road. This desire for the new and exotic may reveal some weakness of judgment. Purchases are more likely made with joyful abandon rather than with an eye on long-term value. People, too, can be overrated, particularly if they offer the promise of adventure or enlighten. Venus conjunct Pluto 7:12 pm PDT (22 Sagittarius) combines the quest for truth and expansion of the self with the passionate intensity of the underworld where the shadow is brought to conscious awareness. Take a small step made out of stars. Sleep until you wake up dreaming.
SATURNSDAY, OCTOBER 29
Bring me my crow of burning gold
Bring me my sparrows of desire ...
The job of Saturn in Leo is building the courage to express our personalities. While the negative side of this potentially negative planet is to suppress the joyous impulses of this self-important sign, holding yourself back is not the point. The planet needs the power of the human heart, one person at a time, starting with you. Planning and building a framework for your creativity is a gift to all of us. Saturn provides the planning and training, Leo the talent and stage on which to present it. This passage through Leo is a chance to face the excesses and insufficiencies of ego, to temper them with training and direct personal power with creativity, generosity and love. It was August of 2003 when Mars made its last closest approach to the Earth. Mars came over 43.4 million miles closer than it was in prehistoric times and was a stunning site to see. Mars arrived in Aug of 2003 as the personification of the newly transformed archetype of the Pisces God and quickly meeting with Venus in her Scorpio Goddess expression. Today, Mars is again in its closest proximity to the Earth though not as close as it was in 2003. It is about 25% further away than it was in 2003 however it is about 30% higher in the sky so it actually is even more favorable for a bright appearance from our Earth based perspective, thus this Mars return provides skywatchers with the best opportunity to see the Red Planet until 2018. Access the divine. Light up like a firebombed motorcade. Become the oracle.
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 30
The Day of the Sun in Assiah, the World of Earth. The Lightcraft's interactive membrane is informed directly from the E.M.F's of the Sun, which in turn is affected by the transits of it's satellites (each representing a level of vibrational resonance.) Inside each monkeysuit is another Sun, emanating its rays into the solar plexus and reflecting off the Moon below, which in turn informs and records both the earth and the sky. The evolution of the Metaversal song, what some refer to as the Great Work, or the Will, has as it's core the purpose of resonating this harmonic through your individual interactive Lightcraft. The earth's ionosphere (about 70 miles up) is the key. It's in direct resonance with the solar and lunar currents and it oscillates at 7.8 cycles a second. The human brain oscillates at 7.8 cycles per second when it is in a state of samadhi or meditational absorption, experiencing bliss, receiving and sending out E M waves, to be absorbed or re-radiated, and this creates all the tones, pitches, octaves, wave-lengths, colours, and hues in nature. Goethe called this ....'the Deeds and Sufferings of Light'. We are surrounded by these 'Deeds and Sufferings' of radiation, extending through the whole seventy-plus E M octaves beyond the single known octave we call visible light. From light to matter and back again. Pacific Standard Time begins and many are turning their clocks back one hour. The Moon moved into Libra late yesterday afternoon transmitting the mysteries of balanced relationships. We live in a culture that promotes certain pictures of romantic ideals that suggest completion through relationship. This has promoted the epidemic of co-dependent relationships that rarely last in a healthy over time. The most important relationship we will ever had is the one with ourself. Do we like who we are. Also today Mercury enters Sagittarius at 1:03 am PST and will go retrograde at 10 Sag on Nov 13 extending Mercury°s journey through his domain into next year.? When healthy Mercury in Sag has the courage and conviction to call out the truth of the moment as they are throwing themselves into it.
MONDAY, OCTOBER 31
Halloween. I am told of a race of gigantic white-faced humanoids who stand like doofuses in a land I've never heard of, waiting for you to come hiking along their pathway so they can crush your skull and eat your brains.The thin waning crescent moon is 3° east of bright star Spica low in the east at dawn further energizing last month's Jupiter, Moon, Mercury and Venus connection to this important fixed star. Found in the hand of the constellation of the Virgin Priestess (a.k.a. Virgo) Spica reminds us that "As we sew, So shall we reap" and has the ability to enhance lucid dreaming states, as well as psychic abilities such as psychometry and levitation through pure mind energy and remote viewing. What are you and who do you want? If you're here to frighten us, congratulations: we've been screaming for hours. You make our hair crawl and our skin stand on end and even the cat is hyperventilating now. I'll gladly slip into the worst horror dream in exchange for your departure. Meanwhile - as you exhibit no indication of heeding our reasonable request - back to the screaming.

SATURNSDAY, OCTOBER 29
Bring me my crow of burning gold
Bring me my sparrows of desire ...
The job of Saturn in Leo is building the courage to express our personalities. While the negative side of this potentially negative planet is to suppress the joyous impulses of this self-important sign, holding yourself back is not the point. The planet needs the power of the human heart, one person at a time, starting with you. Planning and building a framework for your creativity is a gift to all of us. Saturn provides the planning and training, Leo the talent and stage on which to present it. This passage through Leo is a chance to face the excesses and insufficiencies of ego, to temper them with training and direct personal power with creativity, generosity and love. It was August of 2003 when Mars made its last closest approach to the Earth. Mars came over 43.4 million miles closer than it was in prehistoric times and was a stunning site to see. Mars arrived in Aug of 2003 as the personification of the newly transformed archetype of the Pisces God and quickly meeting with Venus in her Scorpio Goddess expression. Today, Mars is again in its closest proximity to the Earth though not as close as it was in 2003. It is about 25% further away than it was in 2003 however it is about 30% higher in the sky so it actually is even more favorable for a bright appearance from our Earth based perspective, thus this Mars return provides skywatchers with the best opportunity to see the Red Planet until 2018. Access the divine. Light up like a firebombed motorcade. Become the oracle.

The Day of the Sun in Assiah, the World of Earth. The Lightcraft's interactive membrane is informed directly from the E.M.F's of the Sun, which in turn is affected by the transits of it's satellites (each representing a level of vibrational resonance.) Inside each monkeysuit is another Sun, emanating its rays into the solar plexus and reflecting off the Moon below, which in turn informs and records both the earth and the sky. The evolution of the Metaversal song, what some refer to as the Great Work, or the Will, has as it's core the purpose of resonating this harmonic through your individual interactive Lightcraft. The earth's ionosphere (about 70 miles up) is the key. It's in direct resonance with the solar and lunar currents and it oscillates at 7.8 cycles a second. The human brain oscillates at 7.8 cycles per second when it is in a state of samadhi or meditational absorption, experiencing bliss, receiving and sending out E M waves, to be absorbed or re-radiated, and this creates all the tones, pitches, octaves, wave-lengths, colours, and hues in nature. Goethe called this ....'the Deeds and Sufferings of Light'. We are surrounded by these 'Deeds and Sufferings' of radiation, extending through the whole seventy-plus E M octaves beyond the single known octave we call visible light. From light to matter and back again. Pacific Standard Time begins and many are turning their clocks back one hour. The Moon moved into Libra late yesterday afternoon transmitting the mysteries of balanced relationships. We live in a culture that promotes certain pictures of romantic ideals that suggest completion through relationship. This has promoted the epidemic of co-dependent relationships that rarely last in a healthy over time. The most important relationship we will ever had is the one with ourself. Do we like who we are. Also today Mercury enters Sagittarius at 1:03 am PST and will go retrograde at 10 Sag on Nov 13 extending Mercury°s journey through his domain into next year.? When healthy Mercury in Sag has the courage and conviction to call out the truth of the moment as they are throwing themselves into it.
MONDAY, OCTOBER 31
Halloween. I am told of a race of gigantic white-faced humanoids who stand like doofuses in a land I've never heard of, waiting for you to come hiking along their pathway so they can crush your skull and eat your brains.The thin waning crescent moon is 3° east of bright star Spica low in the east at dawn further energizing last month's Jupiter, Moon, Mercury and Venus connection to this important fixed star. Found in the hand of the constellation of the Virgin Priestess (a.k.a. Virgo) Spica reminds us that "As we sew, So shall we reap" and has the ability to enhance lucid dreaming states, as well as psychic abilities such as psychometry and levitation through pure mind energy and remote viewing. What are you and who do you want? If you're here to frighten us, congratulations: we've been screaming for hours. You make our hair crawl and our skin stand on end and even the cat is hyperventilating now. I'll gladly slip into the worst horror dream in exchange for your departure. Meanwhile - as you exhibit no indication of heeding our reasonable request - back to the screaming.
