Note to readers in eastern Canada: I'll be presenting a half-day workshop on astrology and activism on Thursday, as well as another on working with Chiron on Friday. This is part of the Astrology Toronto, Inc. mentorship intensive conference. If you're interested, please email me at francis@planetwaves.net and I'll get right back to you. Thank you! Also, from the "Too Rich for Words" file, this just in: http://news.independent.co.uk/europe/article362870.ece Tuesday, May 9, 2006 | More on Probability Fields NOW we may ask, what determines whether a probability field comes into play in 3D, that is, physical space and time? This is a big question. I have no certain answers. I have a few ideas, based on what I've lived and observed. Intention is an important factor. If somebody wants something to happen, the probability increases pretty darned fast that it's going to happen, and this may be the single most important factor. This notion may seem to fly in the face of so many people who want so many things to happen, and they don't -- but it's a little like making dinner, you need the ingredients, you need to have a recipe, you need gaz in the stove, and you need to get motivated and like DO it. The ingredients don't just jump into the pan. Those ingredients are resources. There are some things that are more likely to happen the more money you have. But that only goes so far. And plenty of people who don't have two quid to rub together can pull off some prettttty amazing things. There are lots of ways to beat the odds. Casinos have to work very hard to keep people from doing that, and if you win too much, they kick you out. Another thing that helps is cooperation. If you can decide what you need to do, and if you know you need help, asking for help CAN help. There are times when other people can mess with your head, even cooperative ones, so you need to make sure you don't dilute your intentions with those of others. Focus and intention come first, then help. But there does come a point where the more people who support an idea, the more likely it is to happen. That usually works. It does not always work, however. But usually, if you invent a kind of cookie and people start to really get into it, the more people who buy it guarantee that you're going to be the next Fig Newton. Even if you have to flog them into buying it with ads (I'll save the Ivory Soap "we've been around so long, let's stop advertising" experiment for another blog but in short, they stopped selling soap and went back to advertising.) Now, sometimes what you need to get the job done is secrecy. Sometimes, to focus your intentions, you have to make sure that nobody gets in the way. Secrecy just means the people who need to know, know; and the people only know their little part. This is basically how they pulled off 9/11, as only the people who needed to know, got to know. It is true, there were a heck of a lot of people in on Sept. 11, but each knew his or her own little bit. It also worked well for the atomic bomb at Hiroshima. It has worked well a lot of times, and as we've seen a lot of times, when the secrecy is gone, the plan (or that version of it) is screwed up. But, that can work as a diversion, and one makes another plan. Regarding Sept. 11, along the way, somehow, it seems that somebody aligned with some kind of "wider intention" to increase the probability of the event happening. Or they saw an easy opening, and were very good at focusing intentions and having just the right kind of cooperation. They also got very lucky, whatever the heck luck is. They also fucked up (neither Flight 77 nor Flight 93 went off as planned, so far as I can tell). Okay so, skip ahead half a decade (yes, it's been half a decade of this shit). We now have another rather intense chart that looks a little like it's connected to Sept. 11, which is the solstice chart coming up in June. There is only one difference now: a lot of people are talking about it. If the chart represents a high-probability field, why that would or would not work is the question. And right now there are a lot of people who are thinking, "Gee, it seems something big is about to happen soon," which very few people were thinking on Sept. 11. Now, awareness can work a number of ways. It can work to avert one probability and it can work to emphasize another. The chart, any chart you see, is indicative of an energy source; it is a map to the possibilities. The energy can always be worked with and indeed, we always work with it. In this respect, the solstice chart is rather interesting, and it's something we can work with consciously. Oh, it's a big one, and the more consciously we work with it and make decisions, the better. But I'll tell you something right now: thanks to certain factors of linear time, it's not a done deal -- but neither is the amazing grace that can come from working with it consciously.
