Guest guest Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 I forgot to add the final thought to Mary Summer Rain's list of " Our Purpose. " " The above behaviors balance karma naturally. You are not here to create your own reality...that is not in keeping with why you are here. " ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The concept of karma is foremost in many people's minds today, thanks to Eastern thought making its way into the western world. Jyotish (Vedic astrology) has brought the concept of karma into the astrological community. I believe what MSR means by the above statement is that the soul (as shown in the navamsa chart??) has one purpose, while the personality (the 'create your own reality' new age part of our psyche) may have its own purpose. If these two purposes are in conflict, the result will be unhappiness, restlessness, guilt and all the other negative emotions we have to contend with. So as astrologers--how can we distinguish the soul's purpose from the ego's interests? How can the personality--our conscious mind--best express our soul's purpose? We know when transiting Saturn comes along, it's asking us to break an unhealthful karmic situation or thought process. To let go. Just one thought....

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Dear Therese This is great! I'm cutting it out. It is what I deeply believe is tru purpose. Unfortunately, some clients want it to be very specific and detailed. In this instance, it comes at a turning point. She'll need to make hard choices to meke big changes. Either road has a toll. Y'all have been so kind and helpful. If you are interested here is the birth date.
