Guest guest Posted February 4, 2002 Report Share Posted February 4, 2002 Dear Cynthia you <<I would also like to begin a discussion on the Karma of predicting mass destruction or chaos.>> me It is my preference not to be the predictor of bad news. When that comes i do give the news in riddles. Most people are not prepared to confront their destiny and we should avoid causing worries, because by doing so, we get part of the karma. you <<What is the responsibility of the astrologer for his or her words?>> me A great responsibility indeed. That is why we should cultivate a pure life within and without. We should avoid unethical practices. For the untrained eye any astrologer may look the same but for those in the know, they know better. The external dress should not be the landmark to judge but the activities. you <<What does it say about astrologers when as a whole most appear to be seeking the next big calamity rather than the next great opportunity?>> me It can be the search for fame and glory. Vedic astrology by being a divine science can give in good time the right information to the right astrologer. I know of astrologers that dont look for personal gain but to help in the natural developing of karma. We are here to help others and not to cause anxieties.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2002 Report Share Posted February 4, 2002 Dear NAtabara I knew you would dialogue with me on this <grins> <<I would also like to begin a discussion on the Karma of predicting mass destruction or chaos.>> me It is my preference not to be the predictor of bad news.

[c] Ahh, that makes sense. When we are focused in on the events of others we do not hear what we need to address within ourselves. I have a deepe sense that what is described as "life review" at the time of death is true. If so, then I would assume that the astrologer who predicts destruction would review the impact of that prediction upon those who took it to heart or believed that the astrologer knew just what was to happen. Then again, I believe that we are each responsible for our thoughts and that these predictions as they are rendered untrue, may in fact help those who suffere from such anxiety to gain perspective. you <<What is the responsibility of the astrologer for his or her words?>> me A great responsibility indeed.

[c] Thank you we are in much agreement here. I was asked if one could prmote my little newsletter after Sept. 11th. I said no thank you. I have no doubt of the origin of the installments that month. They were no from my ego and I was depressed the whole time I wrote it. I put the planner out there for those who need insight and help getting through the days, weeks and months of life. My intent is to ease the stress not cause it. I knew immediately that publicity would bring folks who would be drawn to prediction rather than insight. I never lose sight of where the information "ultimately" comes from. It is not from my intellect or skill but from the sense of connection to the planets as I feel them and the stories of the nakshatras as they reveal themselves. I suspect that the rich and subtle insight of astrology will ever be elusive to those who want it for fame. Even if fame comes, it will be short-lived as astrology is deeper and richer than the mundane world. The astrologer Caroline CAsey called astrology a mystery school cleverly disguised as a language of human understanding....or something like that. again, than you for the dialogue. What do you make of the nak.
