Absent peace and light there is only war and darkness to fall back on. When the light of peace and harmony has been removed, whether by intention or by accident, the darkness that falls is deadly and dehumanizing, filled with despair and yearning for better days. But everyone already knows what better days look like, so keep them alive in your mind’s eye and always strive toward that image of those better days. But also go beyond that image to what follows after that, perfect harmony, balance, and a most loving world.
In Greek mythology, Apollo and Artemis are fraternal twins, born to Leto and Zeus.
Apollo becomes the masculine deity identified with strength, intelligence, the sun and civilization.
Artemis becomes the feminine goddess of the moon and nature. She is the fierce huntress who protects young women, wild animals and the process of childbirth.
Together, Apollo and Artemis form a balanced wholeness of masculine and feminine energies. The actual Apollo space program was the first to land on the moon. The current Artemis program is the dominant space mission program of now, scheduled to land on the moon in 2028.
In the actuality of our time, the spaceship, Artemis II, just completed her mission to the far side of the moon, providing the greatest perspective of Earth ever witnessed by humankind.
The myths of Artemis and Apollo come to life in this time as the feminine rising, which the rising of Artemis II captures. The masculine Apollo element is represented cooperatively on board the Artemis II.
The crew aboard Artemis II was a balanced quaternity, which included a white man, a black man, a woman and an interconnected neighbor, a Canadian man. This imbalance of masculine to one feminine was compensated for by the spaceship itself, representing the womb of Artemis, that safely brought the crew to the heart of her domain, the moon.
This quaternity, circling the moon, formed a perfect circle and square, a cosmic mandala, the new wholeness we are moving toward.
The perspective from outer space reveals truths that only such a perspective can provide; that the deep subconscious truths rocking the Earth we stand upon, as well as the Wisdom to be acted upon as we make our evolutionary leap to create a new civilization, must be based upon wisdom, truth and the greater good for all.
The perspective from above reveals an unstable planet, failing, due to its materialistic errors, whose only karma can be one of self-destruction. Despite the breadth of the current breakdown upon our planet and within our society, it is merely the culmination of the need for the human race to be completely freed of ruling materialist ideas that deny humankind access to their true spiritual potential.
Artemis rising foreshadows a New Age that obliterates the obvious non-inclusion of feminine wisdom in the worldview that currently governs humankind.
Artemis, the warrior, rising, puts an end to the unchecked abuse of women and girls.
Artemis rising restores sustainability and protection to all of nature.
The quaternity in Artemis II rising shows the interconnectedness and equanimity possible, for all beings.
Fixate not on the mist of madness everywhere before us now. Be assured instead of the presence of Artemis in our midst, protecting and leading us to the greater good for all.
Focus, at the subtle level of the imagination and intent, upon positive thoughts and ideas that reach out to the subconscious mind to manifest loving dreams for the whole world. And finally, rest assured that Artemis is shepherding that birth.
As you begin each day find first your balance within the self. Find your equilibrium in your own quiet way. It will be different for everyone. You may need a few moments to yourself. You may need to be in the bustle of life, the cacophony of life, to know your true place. Or you may need to be in utter calmness and quiet to feel who you truly are. It doesn’t matter the technique you use to find your center. It doesn’t matter how someone else finds theirs. What matters is that you take the time to get there, that you give yourself permission each day to begin from a place of balance, groundedness, and heart-centered love. Make this centering of self a daily habit. It only takes a few seconds, a few breaths, a few centering mantras, or a small prayer for a good day ahead.
Find balance within yourself and within the world you live in. Give yourself time each morning to sit for a moment and give thanks for another day to grow and challenge yourself. Give thanks for all the gifts you are given each day. Whether small or large, whether known or unknown, you are all being given daily gifts. To start the day with thanksgiving is a perfect beginning. Take your grateful attitude with you into your day, and remind yourself often, as the day unwinds, that you are blessed indeed.
Stay focused and contained, keeping mind and body balanced, heart and spirit aligned. These are trying times and the best you can do in trying times is to try your best. You will not fail if you put your attention strongly upon the practice of prayer, meditation, manifestation and heart centered love for all in need. Keep a daily practice going so that the world may one day soon return to balance and peace.
