Haumea
– Goddess of Life
More than 2,250 California sea lions, mostly pups,
have turned up starving and stranded on California's beaches so far this year. More
than half of them turned up last month alone, making it the worst such crisis
yet documented for the marine mammals. Jeff Boehm, the executive director of
the Marine Mammal Centre in San Francisco, said the fact that the sea lion
mothers are unable to find food for their pups provides "an insight into
the state of the ocean environment - from the point of view of the water
temperatures, and fisheries". April 5; http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2015/04/sea-lions-california-beaches-150407081814627.html
The news item
mentions that the crisis reached its critical phase in March. We know that the
solar eclipse of March 20 influences all major events taking place now. The
chart for the eclipse at San Francisco
is shown here. The eclipse is conjunct the star Scheat, beta Pegasus.
Scheat
reveals the essence of early sidereal Pisces and the very foundation of
life—water. Scheat is of the waters of life, the living springs of the Earth
[1]. It draws attention to the quality of water and whether it is supportive of
life.
Notice that
the eclipse is prominent for San Francisco since it not only aspects the
horizon axis but places the Uranus-Pluto square on the meridian axis. What is not visible in the chart is the
placement of Haumea [22li] on the MC
[21li].
Haumea is a recently discovered dwarf planet
named after a Polynesian goddess. It helps to consider the nature of Haumea in
the context of the ancient Polynesian view of life; thus it is worth mentioning
the Hawaiian "Kumulipo" to help gain context for the unadulterated
essence of Haumea and her lineage of souls. The Kumulipo is an epic poem about
creation and the evolution of life on Earth, over two thousand lines long, at
one time recited from memory by Kahuna (high priests) during ceremony. In the
Kumulipo, humans are acknowledged to be integral with the Earth, the land, and
all living creatures—one wholistic system—providing a biologically-ecologically
wholistic view of life, and thus teaching the sacredness of life, of being wholistically
attuned to our embracing sojourn on Earth as evolving souls [2].
Solar
eclipses offer opportunity to redefine the roles we play in the world, or how
we articulate ourselves in life. They are about shifting octaves in the nature
of our self-perception and self-expression, and addressing issues that keep us
from doing so. They can invite a new beginning, way of life, or new way of
participating in life [1]. This solar
eclipse is asking us to express a new level of awareness about what is truly
life supportive.
