CONSULTING THE ORACLE

By consulting me as an oracle, I will try to make you understand what I understand; that is, If one is truly conscious in the present moment then the environment orders itself in such a way that the surroundings speak for themselves.  Thusly, I am sharing with you my understanding and paradigm of how the universe works and you are sharing with me your queries and desires.  Together, we will organize and delineate a map to better assist your understanding. The tools I use are described below. 

The architecture of the psyche is organized in such a way that the above and below, within and without form what Paracelsus  describes as the Law of Correspondence. Likewise Carl Jung describes a synchronicity of space and time that brings people, events, time and space together.   “This Law of Correspondence goes much deeper as to the relation of planetary and stellar influences to human destiny.   From one point of view, the horizontal one; man’s destiny is indelibly fixed and preordained from birth as the fixed position of the horoscope attest.   Due to the merits or lack of it from previous birth, the human ego has acquired numerous karmas which have to play themselves out in the present lifetime as determined by the present horoscope.  The horizontal approach is not the one of the magician who operates from the vertical stance.  Man’s descent from his spiritual origin has him locked into the prisons house of his human ego; thus circumscribed by the accretions of wants and desires or proclivities from many births.  If he elects that his ego governs then the planets tug him around according to the limited stance of the human ego.^[2]

We are a microcosm which is a mirror image of the macrocosm.    In the nous there is only the divine mind of eternal images as in Plato’s Timaeus.   That which is here in the world has its reflection in the eternal realm of divine ideas.   Ritual and ceremony are active forms of the divine, the intermediate (Psychic realm) and the material world simultaneously. 

ASTROLOGICAL

CHART CATEGORIES

Natal Chart

The Natal Chart is a map of the heavens at the exact time of birth.  When the first breath is taken, this is the beginning of the soul's journey in this incarnation; this is the reason it is sometimes referred to as the birth chart. of life. It is a circular graph that shows the positions of the planets and astrological houses in the sky at the moment of birth.  This is a much more detailed map than the horoscope which only shows the position of the sun.  Most popular horoscopes read in newspapers are merely solar horoscopes.  A natal chart is much more detailed and contains hundreds of pieces of data.  This is the chart from which all other charts are referenced; that is, transits, Solar Returns and Progressed charts.  Mark Twain once said, "The is a difference between a good word and the right word. is like the difference between fire and firefly." [Letter to George Bainton, 10/15/1888] Likewise, your horoscope may hold some hints of truth, but the natal chart tells the real story of your persona. It is also more exact as the ascendant degree changes every four minutes 

    A proper analysis of your natal chart affords a remarkable profound and revealing glimpse into your natural character, with its inherent strengths and weakness.  Moreover, the type of partner and relationship you seek will be revealed as well as your vocational and career opportunities.  Certain houses in the chart have to do with money, recreation, siblings, in-laws, hopes, wishes and dreams for the future as well as many other salient points of reference. Obstacles are revealed and analyzed but mostly your chart will help you understand your desires, motivations, and why you act and think the way you do. 

Transits

Transits over your natal chart are noted.  The natal chart is fixed at birth, however, the planets move forward from the time of birth and make aspects to the natal chart. These aspects tell how, when and why your life changed during these transits and how you can avoid pitfalls or avail yourself of opportunities that may come up.  Transits aspecting your luminaries (Sun and moon) and ascendant are personal and affect you more deeply.  Aspects involving  planets before the sun are all  personal and reveal situations with your immediate orbit of life. The transpersonal planets beyond Saturn have more to due with the collective and your karmic stamp within that collective.  Astrology and the mantic arts are tools of divination and should not supplant each individual's free will.  According to Eastern teachings the natal chart merely shows the proclivities and tendencies from previous births.  Each soul's individual free will must be exercised contrary to the fatalistic point of view.  The main transit in life is the Saturn return which completes a cycle in twenty eight and a half years.  Saturn is he lesson we all came to learn.  I devote a whole chapter to Saturn in my book, MYSTERIES; ANCIENT & MODERN.

Interpretation:

 Interpretation and delineation is an art that may take years to assimilate. In the zodiacal circle of 360 degree,  there are many aspects of planets in their houses  Aspects are relationships between points on the chart and form a  pattern.  The quadraplicity of the elements are important as well as the triplicity of the Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable signs.  Hopefully, my intuitive faculties and many years interpreting and delineating charts will offer you a map and description of your life' s path that will help you move forward.  What you do with the energies imaged and described is up to you.   For instance, Mahatma Gandhi had Scorpio rising.  This does not mean that if you have Scorpio rising you will be like Mahatma Gandhi and transform the world, but you will be a transformer of some kind.  All of us have to face life and our individual karma bravely with responsibility.  Astrology is a tool and like any tool must be used deftly and with discretion.

TAROT CONSULTATION
 & 
OTHER MANTIC ARTS

   Those of you seeking intuitive counseling will be surprised to learn that I use a variety of the mantic arts. Tarot is the salad on which one can put a variety of savory dressings.   I use the tarot which is an artifice of the mantic arts but equally use the regular deck of cards as well.  So, in the salad are a lot of different kinds of greens.   I may also employ the use of numerology as a tool or simply rely on my highly intuitive faculties.  Finally, the salad is mixed and served up to the customer, "querent."  My experience is extensive in this field as I have studied many tools of divination; however, I mainly rely on my soul faculties to direct the consultation for the highest good of the querent.   I would not have the time to explain to you the many various and sundry methods employed.  Over the past forty years I have studied metaphysics, the Huna religion psychometry, and many various and sundry forms of divination. assisting many  fellow spiritual travelers. Today there are intuitive camps for kids since more indigoes are reincarnating at this time

For some of you a flag may go up when I mention the "MANTIC ARTS".  I know, this conjures up the fear of necromancy and other negative concepts.  For the sincere and open minded querent, I suggest you read the heading Fear and Prejudice Regarding the Mantic Arts.  Even the concept of "metaphysics" may be problematic for some of you.  What can be beyond physics?  Well, we know  that physics is only now catching up with what was always known in previous Golden Ages; that is, mind and not matter is the cause of things.

TOOLS, PATTERNS, ARCHETYPES:

In the context of mythic time, including collective archetypes, meaning is funneled in the now as a pattern in context and relevance of the question at hand, the person  being read for and myself as the reader.  All factors must be taken in consideration to achieve as best as possible accurate imaging of events and or contributing factors that exist on a plane of reference that is quite outside normal range of experience.  In some respects we are dealing with very elusive or ephemeral stuff.  The pictographs illustrated in the Tarot are drawn from archetypical patterns.  These act as gateways, segeways and links to consciousness primarily represented in the Major Arcana of the Tarot.  The twenty two major arcana are representative of archetypes that symbolize different stages of consciousness.   Even the Bibles (Books) of the world are merely handbooks of consciousness; that is, each character, each archetype represents a level of consciousness.  All holy books are guides, instruction manuals for life.   The tarot is a map, a pattern that permits interpretation.  while appearing to be relatively random.  The unconscious orders the cards in the process of the reading.  The cards individually have significance.  Before the reading a specific card is chosen to represent the person asking the questions, the querent, and this card both in face value and position as it is displayed begin to form the pattern for the consultation.  This card that represents the person is called the "Significator"  For instance, if you are a female, brown eyed, brown haired querent I may chose as a Significator,  the Queen of Pentacles or in the regular deck of cards, the Queen of clubs.   Cards are used as benchmarks, archetypes or symbols to gauge the direction of a consultation.  Usually, I will give you enough feedback that you will begin to recognize the relevance of what is going on in your life.

The other cards in the tarot are representative of the elements in the universe that pervade all the world teachings; e.g. tanmattras in Hinduism, the elements in the Tibetan Stupa, etc.   Always remember it is you who brings all the information to me as a consultant.  I act as an adjudicator or interpreter of what is going on in your psyche or subconscious mind.  This format can not explain the voluminous materials I use to cognize a reading. I sincerely hope, however, if you are satisfied with the consultation that you tell your friends and recommend me. After all, it is you who must feel served by the consultation and it is I who must do my best to serve you.

Quantum Thoughts

Be careful what you ask for as you may get that very thing; albeit, it may be good health, wealth, wisdom or the very thing that you are complaining  about. God's gift to you is the Law of Attraction, your thoughts create reality. Quantum physics shows us that our thoughts and intentions draws to us everything that we are experiencing in our life.  God is in everything and everyone but the most important place to look and act from is within yourself and the beginning of this journey is to love yourself.

REMOTE:

Readings can be done on the phone while you take notes and there is no shipping and handling cost.  The  reading can be taped  on a standard cassette tape. This affords you, however, only one side of the conversation  If a person wants to tape the reading and use a phone tap they will get both sides of the conversation.  A tape of my comments is $10.00 plus $10.00 S&H in addition to the cost of the reading.  

IN PERSON:  

If you are in my vicinity then you can get a reading in person.  If I  come to your home or a mutual agreed area then I will have to charge an additional fee of 50 cent per mile.  

GROUP READINGS:

If you would like to hold a party where I read for your friends, I will discount your reading by 50% and read for your friends; however, there must be a minimum of five readings. Unless you pay for my plane ticket, I will only travel within a one hundred mile radius of the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area at the rate of 50 cents per mile.
