Numerology/Astrology
for 10/28/17
Just a reminder that I am on a trek and Internet may be sketchy
or non-existent. I will do my best to give you blogs when the internet is
available. Thank you for your understanding.
10/28/17 is the number 3. Life has its ups and
downs. Occasionally, (like now) those waves are very big and extreme. The
bigger the storm, the longer that storm sticks around. Wishing for things that
nature is not remotely prepared to offer is an experience in stress and
believing that you can make something happen that you wish for but is actually
not in alignment with the lessons that the Divine is offering up to you in that
moment. Deal with what is right in front of you. That is how you discover the
miracle in the storm, the gift in the upset.

It
has never been more clear to me than now, being in Nepal, after that horrible
earthquake two years ago, that what make cultures powerful is the
infrastructure that makes cities great and work smoothly. What I mean by
infrastructure is the roads, water, electrical, plumbing, waste removal,
housing, decent road construction, and financial systems that work for the
people, etc. You cannot have a civilization that thrives when there is such
hardship for life. My husband works in Delhi and his apartment is a nice one
but nothing to get super excited about and the cost is way more than most
houses mortgage payments in America. The tub leaks, you have to have an air purifier
in the house because of the terrible air, plumbing is strange and not sealed
properly allowing smells to come up from underneath, etc. I could go on and on.
The infrastructure is not there in Delhi. The water is undrinkable by American
standards, there is no real garbage and waste removal that would be remotely
familiar to our standards. Parking is atrocious. Pollution is ridiculously bad.
Traffic a nightmare coming to a from work. And that is one of the reasons that
my husband is in Delhi doing solar. Clean energy for a city and country that
desperately needs a better infrastructure. When you look at history, great
cultures manifest when there are systems in place that allow for some form of
consistency. Rome got its aqueducts and that allowed a huge city to rise up
because they had water and plumbing. The same was true in Peru with the water
systems that allowed water to come from the glaciers to the fields to grow
crops. I find it painful that the infrastructure that has made our country
great is being slowly dismantled. When you take away good health insurance from
people eventually disease will kill the population more quickly. When you do
not give the poor and the middle class certain standards, why would they allow
a government controlled by the wealthy to continue. This is how revolutions
start and it is how civilizations end. Check a history book. It is the same
over and over again. Within each of us is a power to do something that can make
a difference. Complacency is what makes civilizations fall. When will each of
you stand for the great gifts this life has offered and not allow them to be
dismantled? How much loss is finally enough loss to make you have a voice?
Clearly we are going to find out. We are clearly in the truth of an ancient Chinese
curse, “May you live in interesting times.”
