Their story:
New Souls have come into the world in the first trimester of 2009 when rare and powerful planetary combinations occurred. Amongst them we can safely say that some Ascended Masters also have incarnated and we are changing their diapers for now!
It won’t be long before we begin to perceive the unusual and extraordinary spiritual powers of the recently new born babies. They started arriving around the New Moon in Capricorn on December 26-27, 2008. It got better and better to reach its peak in February 2009, although they continued arriving until the beginning of April 2009. Then things started to level out but only to continue with the high note thus created as opposed to returning to where we once were. Humankind’s energy has been raised several notches in the process.
As soon as they entered the physical plane their vibrations blended with our collective energy. They permanently hold these high frequencies for all of us, no matter how their physical life might be. They come as a gift to humankind and support beautifully the ascension process.
They’ll tend to be highly intuitive, mystical, and psychic. Most of them capable to perceive reality from a multidimensional point of view including what’s beyond time and space. Some of them will be wise beyond their years during childhood. Others may suffer health problems due to a hypersensitive physical body. Some may also be unable to achieve any coherent and realistic connection with the physical world. In a nutshell we can expect the unexpected because they’ll tend to dwell in their higher chakras mostly (higher levels of consciousness). This will cause them to probably experience a certain degree of resistance about descending fully into the physical form. Their general “problem” will be a lack of grounding. Their parents and caretakers can assist them immensely by using the support of healers to help them descend and stabilize into their human body. When the time will come for them to embrace their adult life these treatments will prove to have been of great value toward their effective and realistic management of responsibilities.
In the past forty-ish years counselors have described the profile of a different type of consciousness in the youth of the time. They called them Indigo children. They probably were the ice-breaker for more to come since they are not coming anymore. Following them we have observed two more sets of Souls described as Crystal and Rainbow children. In early 2009 there seems to be yet another wave and the naming for their group has not come up yet.
Now, for those who would like to know the astrological details behind this story, let’s go to the “long story!”
The New Moon always marks the beginning of the Moon cycle. Whatever are the conditions at the time they’ll unfold and bloom according to their unique nature. On December 26-27, 2008, several other indicators accentuated the new beginning theme as if a new era was taking place.
In Astrology when two or more planets meet on the same zodiacal degree it is called a conjunction. The New Moon is a conjunction of Sun and Moon, for example. Conjunctions always indicate the beginning of a new cycle and its length depends on the speed of the planets involved before they meet again. Venus-Mercury’s cycles will last about one year; Jupiter-Saturn cycles will last about 20 years, for instance. Conjunctions will fertilize a potential which will become apparent later as the cycle grows. Always in such encounters one of the planets involved will travel faster and, consequently, will “carry the news” (on the nature of their meeting) further into the zodiac. The proper astrological terms for this being “carrying the light.”
As we’ll explain below, not only did we have the Sun-Moon conjunction but we also had Venus-Neptune in Aquarius, as well as Pluto-Mars in the first degree of Capricorn. The first degree of any zodiacal signs also marks new beginnings. In view of all this we seem to be pushed ahead into a new time!
Those were some of the active conditions for that New Moon. Let’s now go deeper into the plot.
Mars and Pluto were conjunct in Capricorn’s first degree. In the few days prior both the Sun and the Moon had met with them and were now “carrying the light” further into manifestation.
Capricorn represents maturity, experience, practical wisdom, effective organization and structures. It represents the old and savvy.
Mars and Pluto are good friends. Actually they have such a natural connection that we consider Pluto as Mars’s higher octave! Mars also particularly likes Capricorn.
Mars represents boldness and courage, including hard work in this sign. Pluto cares about thorough change and transformation. When they come together we can imagine a jack hammer effect on the global structures and traditions in the society, an iron fist, a determined commanding drive that can be ruthless. From the old or conservative ways only the purest will survive. Anything shady, abusive, dysfunctional or such will be trashed without looking back. Yes, it’ll hurt a bit sometimes – but only where the actions are self-serving.
Virgo’s ruler, Mercury, was in Capricorn while Capricorn’s ruler, Saturn, was in Virgo. If you follow this lead you’ll see that one is in the sign of the other. It is called a “mutual reception” and it enhances the benefits of both signs allowing a greater circulation of their mutual energy from one to the other. It causes Saturn to behave as if it were back in Capricorn and Mercury as if it were back in Virgo, then back and forth. What’s interesting about this mutual reception is that the two planets also are connected by a Trine – the most positive and masterful relationship between two planets.
Both signs are dedicated servants and value justice and effectiveness. Their rulers are about decision making and communication (Mercury) and their application (Saturn). No doubt that lots of thinking and planning was going on behind the scenes at the time. In December there were no leaders leading at least in Canada and the USA – because the new elected ones were transitioning into their position.
Mars-Pluto’s powerful charge will make it necessary and inevitable that the world leaders – at all levels – will have to modify the old ways to include a global vision leading to a progressive fair share of the common wealth with each and every human being. Not an easy task but one that is an inevitable responsibility for all of us, either in the near or far future.
The current conditions on the planet (global warming, economy, health, Eastern countries’ developing power, renewable energy and resources, and such) are unusual and they impose their natural laws. People in charge seem at a loss sometimes because new conditions require new methods and there are no role models to guide their decisions. The natural tendency seems to try to reform what is changing in a manner to bring it back to what it once were. That won’t work because the now is no longer in the same conditions as the past. We can’t fit an old frame on a new image that has a different shape.
Capricorn represents the leaders and Virgo represents the people. The mutual reception clearly indicates that both leaders and people must now work together, hand in hand, in collaboration and mutual support. The time when leaders would take charge and the people would follow blindly (or even irresponsibly at times) is over. We all stand on the same ground in a tightly knit team. It is so new that we could still tend to lean back on the old ways of (perhaps) passivity until another jolt puts us back on our feet. This reality will become more and more apparent in the coming few years and it’ll be much easier to negotiate with it if we embrace it now.
Above we spoke about the natural friendship between Mars and Pluto. Venus, planet of love and affection, also has her higher octave: Neptune, planet of mystical and unconditional love. When octave planets come together a synergy occurs and the end results becomes much larger than the parts. Do you begin to perceive the incredible uniqueness of the powers in place at this December New Moon?
There is a spiritual evolution in the twelve zodiacal signs beginning with Aries and finishing with Pisces. Each sign contains all of the previous ones added to its own quality. The journey through the signs only gets fuller, larger, and deeper. For that reason the 11th and 12th signs, Aquarius and Pisces, are considered those having the highest frequencies. They correspond to the 3rd eye (6th chakra) and the Crown (7th chakra).
Neptune in Aquarius (3rd eye) rules Pisces (7th chakra). Neptune naturally associates with inspiration, spirituality, compassion, and unconditional love. At the time of the New Moon both Venus and Neptune were conjunct at 22 degrees in Aquarius. Venus moving faster than Neptune carries the light further and her message is one of higher love.
In contrast with the harsh Mars-Pluto style, Venus-Neptune become the “velvet glove upon an iron fist”. Human love has become inseparable from the powerful reforming action put into place. It has become a common denominator blending into the new leadership style emerging in the world. At first we might notice resistance and even (possible) attacks coming from the old school but, in the end, those (desperately) hanging on to the former ways can’t succeed because they hold on to something that is no longer here.
The ways of higher love have started to take place meaningfully in the past several years. As mentioned above the signs Aquarius and Pisces are holding the highest frequencies. They allow people to access higher perceptions such as intuition, extrasensory perceptions, mystical achievement, and such.
From March 2003 to March 2011, we have Pisces’s ruler Neptune in Aquarius and Aquarius’s ruler Uranus in Pisces. Once again we have a “mutual reception” (i.e. rulers in each other’s sign). As explained above this particular condition is highly favorable because it maximized the potential of the signs involved to a much greater expression.
All the children born during this mutual reception carry its potential into their own life one way or another.
Keeping in mind the evolution of our story so far let’s see where it is taking us.
As the days went by more planets started to gather into the sign of Aquarius during the month of January 2009 raising even higher the natural frequency of the sign. The peak has been reached during the whole month of February with even greater emphasis around Valentine’s Day!
Perhaps will you remember that several people did mention then the famous 1967 song Aquarius (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM5dU-oKFes&feature=related) which suddenly appeared as a prophecy of this time.
The planets gathering into Aquarius were all the “good ones”… Mercury, Mars (carrying the light from its Pluto conjunction mentioned above), Jupiter, North Node, Chiron, Neptune, Moon, and Sun. North Node indicates a movement forward, an evolution, an advancement. Chiron brings healing and initiation. Jupiter carries generosity and seeking the truth. Mercury represents the mind, ideas, communication and it is highly elated when surrounded by this unique crowd.
The high frequency of such gathering caused lots of people to feel light headed, ungrounded, even tired or sick without any clear symptoms. Somebody described such sensations like so: “I walk forward and my energy goes sideways. It is as if my energy bodies are floating within and around my physical one”.
At another level spiritual Masters described the effects of those high frequencies as being part of the Ascension process believed to be the effect of human evolution toward advanced realization.
Babies born between the December New Moon and (more or less) the first half of April 2009 carry these unique energies in their field and consciousness, and perhaps even more so those born in February. The purity and high power of such rare planetary configurations suggest that Ascended Masters probably chose to incarnate during that time in order to offer their guidance more directly amongst us human beings. We probably are changing their diapers for now. It is certain that Souls of an unusual and high nature have come into the world during that time. Just like we did for the Indigo, Crystal and Rainbow children we’ll soon know what their general name is.
From May 22nd to July 11th, 2009, Jupiter-Neptune-Chiron are at 26 degrees in Aquarius when Uranus is at 26 degrees in Pisces.
We mentioned above the mutual reception between Uranus and Neptune. Now this exchange is made even more potent because of Jupiter conjunct Neptune. Of course we know that Neptune rules Pisces but we have not mentioned yet that Pisces has two rulers, the other being Jupiter. As you can see the mutual reception has become even richer because all the rulers are in place. Wounded healer Chiron adding its touch is quite amazing because it supports the initiation into higher levels of awakening! As Eckhart Tolle wrote in his book The Power of Now we don’t need to suffer anymore to reach enlightenment.
Understanding the full effect of such extraordinary planetary connections certainly is beyond our reach but let’s put a few words together in the hope they’ll trigger some inspiration and even epiphanies.
In the seven chakras system we have the three lower ones representing our instinctive (animal) nature. Then we have the 4th and the 5th representing our human nature. The 6th and the 7th represent our divine nature. There is a thin veil between the 6th and the 7th chakra allowing them to function as two distinct levels of consciousness. Human beings are encoded to reach their full realization and when that occurs the veil DISSOLVES causing the 6th and 7th chakras to merge. An explosion of Light then occurs and the person becomes surrounded by a bright halo.
The mutual reception between Aquarius (6th chakra) and Pisces (7th chakra) has been so activated in the past few months that it is as if humankind is experiencing an acceleration which dissolves that veil. The babies born at this time will certainly have it rather thin if they have it at all. Their presence amongst us while they carry such high frequencies will only continue to accelerate our own initiation into our higher levels of existence.
If that is great news in a way it also comes with its own challenges. The issues that might become most problematic in the coming years will be those related to being grounded. The new born will need the help of healers to be able to descend fully into all their lower chakras. Most people will also benefit from such help as well.
The above mentioned high frequencies affecting all of us will act powerfully where we dwell the most. People devoted to goodness will become even better, mystics will advance faster into enlightenment, artists will be inspired even more deeply, and so on. Those cultivating mostly the powers of the lower chakras (instinctive nature or self serving goals) will also grow faster along those lines because the energy feeds and empowers what is in place.
In a little while we’ll begin to see a dramatic polarization between those in an upward and those in an downward evolution. We could say “Light versus Darkness”. The war between the two could lead to unfortunate turns of events in the society but the upward evolution will make it clear and free… into the Aquarian Era.
Remember that at the December New Moon Mars-Pluto and Venus-Neptune were conjunct. Mars and Venus moving faster are carrying the light into the signs to apply the manifestation then seeded. Venus travels faster than Mars but she had a Retrograde phase (March 6th to April 17th, 2009) which allowed Mars to catch up with her while they travel relatively at the same speed for a while. Both planets are conjunct from April 22nd to June 20th, 2009.
What does it mean? Exactly what the December New Moon has agreed upon… acting courageously (Mars) into the reform while holding on to the love (Venus) included in the mix. The world is tired of wars and while serious reorganization needs taking place it wants to be done in a humanitarian, collaborative, and just manner.
It is a new era! We may fall back now and then into our old habits but not for long. We can’t afford to live unconsciously anymore.
In a few years we may judge ourselves as barbarians because we have allowed our society to leave some of its members in a state of poverty and even homelessness. That’s when we were unconscious!
