Interconnectedness of all life
A Sikh
politician in Canada has become a viral sensation for his calm response to an
anti-Muslim confrontation at a campaign event. Jagmeet Singh, 38, a candidate
for leader of the left-leaning New Democratic Party (NDP), was speaking at one
of his ‘JagMeet and Greet’ events in Brampton, Ontario, when he was accosted by
local resident Jennifer Bush. The woman claimed that Singh, who practices the
Indian religion of Sikhism, was an advocate of Sharia Law, a traditionalist set
of religious laws in Islam. Sept. 12 https://www.rt.com/news/402914-canada-jagmeet-singh-sikh/
We get this good news about a rare kind of politician
virtually on the heels of the bad news
about Hurricane Irma in Florida. In this post we shall see that both the news
are strangely linked to the same astrological causes. At both Brampton and Miami [1], the solar eclipse chart of Aug. 21 is virtually identical with Neptune aligned with the IC. In a mundane chart, the IC (fourth house cusp) rules the weather and also the national opposition party [2].
Moreover, Neptune and Pisces not only stand for storms but are also linked to the feeling of oneness with all living things. This then is connection between the two unrelated events which Dane Rudhyar was referring to in this quote:
When a storm rips through our neighborhood we need to
understand that as part of collective karma. Some part of our the world derives
from things unique to us as individuals. This affects our individual, specific
karma. But some part of our world events results from a common or collective
perception. This affects common, or collective, karma. The common perception
may simply relate to our family, our neighborhood, or the nation.
Moreover, Neptune and Pisces not only stand for storms but are also linked to the feeling of oneness with all living things. This then is connection between the two unrelated events which Dane Rudhyar was referring to in this quote:
Pisces is an era of
storms and of wholesale disintegration. But Piscean winds of destiny may impel
men of vision and courage to discover many a "new world," as much as
they do destroy or suffocate the many who stubbornly resist change. Pisces is
an era of often sharp and violent repolarization. It is an era of purgation and
cleansing. The devotee of the New Life
must learn to identify himself willingly with the death of all established
structures. He must be willing to face the chrysalis state for the sake of the
butterfly-to-be. Pisces is the mythical Deluge and the age of universal
dissolution. Man must accept structural dissolution under the insidious power
of Neptune, ruler of Pisces. He must cling to no stability or no past
greatness. "No-security" is for him the only possible security. He
must learn to operate in terms of the waxing Dayforce and to stand un-moved
while the structures built by the Night-force are shattered all around him –
Dane Rudhyar
To understand more clearly the subtle connection, I refer readers to Carl Jung’s
story of the Rain Maker [3] . The explanation given there implies that floods, droughts or other natural calamities visit
a place if the people there are not living in accordance with cosmic laws.
In contrast, Jagmeet Singh appears to be some one who is
living out the interconnectedness with all life that Neptune brings to our
consciousness. The following quote from Jagmeet
Singh’s website clearly confirms this:
The biggest influence
in my life is my mother. As a kid, she taught me that we are all connected.
That we are all one. She explained to me that if one person is suffering, then
we are ALL suffering. She showed me that it’s not enough to take care of
oneself, but that we must take care of all of those around us. If we lift up
the people around us, we all rise.
