Fireweek begins on a Thursday!

Fireweek/Atziluth of the Gemini Lunar Cycle The seed/ideas we have from the New Moon to the First Quarter Moon come from the kabbalistic world of Atziluth (Fire) and are the blueprints/seeds for everything that exists, has existed, and will ever exist in the physical world of Assiah (Earth), as an embodiment of the archetypal idealized apple (or a least the Core).. Fireweek is the time to remember we're in the pilots seat of our ownpersonal Lightcraft and make some course corrections if we've veered off course… The Sagittarius Lunar cycle is the time to speak-out. Pythagoras founded a philosophical and religious school in Croton and was the head of the society with an inner circle of followers known as mathematikoi. The mathematikoi lived permanently with the Society, had no personal possessions and werevegetarians. They were taught by Pythagoras himself and obeyed strict Aquarian rules. The beliefs that Pythagoras held were (1) that at its deepest level, reality is mathematical in nature, (2) that philosophy can be used for spiritual purification, (3) that the soul can rise to union with the divine, (4) that certain symbols have a mystical significance, and (5) that all brothers and sisters of the order should observe strict loyalty and secrecy. Pythagoras noticed that vibrating strings produce harmonious tones when the ratios of the lengths of the strings are whole numbers, and that these ratios could be extended to other instruments. In fact Pythagoras made remarkable contributions to the mathematical theory of music. He was a master musician, playing the lyre, and he used music as a means to help those who were ill. Well you can turn me to salt, dye me blue, and let the cows lick me into the homunculus of remorse, whence I will go about the countryside ejaculating Pythagoras' name through kitchen windows. And the people will say, 'Look out, it's him again.' And, typically, there will be those among them who will say, 'Let's kick him to death.' And still others will countermand them, saying, 'No - let's just maim him andsend him on his way.' Citizens and townsfolk, can you not see the sign around my neck? LOCK UP YOUR DOUBTERS: SHE IS RISEN, LIKE THE WOBBLY ROD OF MAN AS IT DOWSETH THE FLUIDIFEROUS CHALICE OF THE EMPERESS! Speak out about what's near and dear to your heart. You needn't dress in any but the most perfunctory manner nor bring any crickets (there will be plenty of those!) The angel of dread has wrestled with the Lightpilot and brought her to her knees THURSDAY, MAY 25 Take physical exercise in Jupiter's Day, when he is reigning, and use Jovial things such as Lapis Lazuli, Brass, Cedarwood, blue and aery colours, wine, honey; and entertain thoughts and feelings which are particularly Jovial, that is, expansive, healthy, and with good humour... - Marsilio Ficino, Renaissance Astrologer and Orphic Musician In the dark of the Moon, Venus squares Pluto this morning. It’s worth our while to journal about our self-esteem and programs of unworthiness, or visit a therapist or support group where we can discuss them. These activities resonate with the mental gifts of today’s number 7, and prepare us for a fresh start at this afternoon’s New Moon, which perfects at 12:44 pm (3:44 ET), and triggers 4 degrees of Gemini.The Sabian symbol for 4 Gemini says: A RADICAL MAGAZINE DISPLAYS A SENSATIONAL FRONT PAGE. The compelling power of social propaganda. Exteriorization of emotional sympathy in organized reform. Gemini is about thought and communication. This symbol expands the reach of our New Moon intentions to something larger than our personal sphere. What is your special voice and how can you share it at this time of social and political upheaval? Perhaps you have a gift for one-on-one connection or access to a venue you can use to empower, mobilize or enlighten others. Maybe yours is the gift of prayer or of kind words that heal your world. Whatever your intent around communication, study, thinking and siblings, clarify and write it down on this power day.
