Numerology/Astrology
for 11/21/18
11/21/18 is the number 7. The number 7 asks you to
look at your personal unique thoughts and gifts. Are you taking advantage of
them? Do you support the learning curve and embrace the quest for knowledge?
Education is the key to stepping beyond our genetic programming and seeing a
bigger world. In this day and age, it will be those that are multi-national in
their mindset and approach that will succeed the most. In such a global
economy, understanding the rules, cultural norms, and social behaviors to
support the growth of businesses and economies is important to creating bridges
for money and commerce. That requires an intellect that is curious and willing
to embrace differences rather than pull back and separate from them. Every
culture has unique qualities that are beautiful gifts that we can grow and
learn from. Every bit of travel opens our eyes to other ways of doing things.
What you discover is that our way is only one way. There are many other ways
that work also. Because this number is ruled by Saturn, you have to recognize
that all knowledge requires something. That something is a type of sacrifice.
Sometimes you have to sacrifice your limited egoic perspective. Sometimes you
have to sacrifice getting something done in your personal expectation of
timing. Sometimes you have to explain things in a way that is more
understandable to others. That can help you in so many ways. It also gives you
patience and the ability to think quickly in the moment. It is in the gifting
that you discover why you are really here.
Astrology
Today
As the Sun lingers in the last bits of Scorpio and
the days continue to lengthen into the darker seasons of Fall into Winter, know
that there is also a quincunx from the Sun to Uranus today. Notice if you want
to make a hasty action and actively choose to not do that. Such moments when
you change your mind suddenly cause accidents and create distractions and
feeling more scattered than you need to. Keep it simple. There is that phrase,
"Don't drive faster than your angels can fly!" I love that one and it
is very applicable to this day. While surprises are probable, they can also be
received from a calmer and more conscious place. Expect your plans to change
and get disrupted. What ever you think the schedule is, probably will alter in
ways that want to make you pull your hair out. Don't let it get to you. Life is
a constant test of center. Life will always throw you one more thing to have to
deal with. This is how we grow and it may be time to embrace the chaos and
allow it to expand your perception.
While the Moon continues plodding through the earth
sign of Taurus, there is a very big part that wishes, life would just calm down
and go back to the way it used to be. I am sure all of us feel that to some
extent. But we are not in control of the external world only our internal
reaction to our life events.
Mercury and Venus are heading into a semi-square, so
expect to feel more nervous than normal and that restlessness might be
difficult to handle.

question:
A person,
particularly in the West, must have the foundation of humility, honesty, and an
ethical way of life. Once one has this foundation, what else does Your Holiness
suggest that one cultivate in one’s life, if there is the foundation of virtue,
ethics and humility.
Dalai Lama answer:
The next thing to
be cultivate is mental stabilization. Ethics is a method to control oneself- it
is a defensive action. Our actual enemy, you see is within ourselves. The
afflicted emotions (pride, anger, jealousy_ are our real enemies. These are the
real trouble makers, and they are to be found within ourselves. The actual
practice of religion consists of fighting against these inner enemies.
As in any war,
first we must have a defensive action, and in our spiritual fight against the
negative emotions, ethics is our defense. Knowing that at first one is not
fully prepared for offensive action, we first resort to defensive action and
then means ethics. But once one has prepared one’s defenses, and has become
somewhat accustomed to ethics, then one must launch one’s offensive. Here our
main weapon is wisdom. The weapon of wisdom is like a bullet, or maybe even a
rocket, and the rocket launcher is mental stabilization or calm abiding. In
brief, once you have a basis in morality or ethics, the next step is to train
in mental stabilization and eventually in wisdom.
