Guest guest Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Mark, My heartfelt condolences on loss of your mom. losing mother at any age is traumatic and one misses the presence. I pray that her soul rests in peace. bestest asha Dear Asha, Thank you very much for your kind words. But, I'm happy to report that this 'sade sat' period, including my Mother's passing on has become extremely positive, especially in light of the last sade sat period I went through. 30 years ago, when I went through my last Sade Sat period I went through one of the worst 'emotional' periods of my life. And, that's the normal idea, that when Saturn returns to that place in our charts where our natal Moon was, that we'd go through many lessons, trials and tribulations of an especially Saturn-Moon nature. But, everything I've been about now, these last 30 years has been all about how to improve myself and especially my Moon emotional nature. Even when I first learned Jyotish some 22 years ago now, I immediately realize that my Moon was all about becoming a more full, fully actualized Moon. So, I learned how to apply the many Remedies and Remedial measures that are really at the very heart of Astrology, especially so my 'poor' Moon would become brighter. I was born with my Moon in the 12th, only 1 sign away from my Sun in the 11th, along with Saturn in the 12th. So, my Moon had a long way to grow! Now, looking back, its been the greatest adventure every day feeling that 'Moon' and figuring out that we're all meant, really, to improve ourselves and our charts. This time, even when Saturn started going through Cancer about 5 years ago, my Mother's health took a big dive. She got cancer and began suffering in many of the ways of a life-long smoker. For me though, part of the growth I've been going through was to find the relief in the Moon, that is the real message of a small or malefic functioning Moon. I realized very early that my Moon not only represented my emotional nature and my relationship with 'Mother' but our Moon's also represent our relationships with the full potential of the Moon which is Mother Divine. When, I discovered that my own personal Moon could be greatly enhanced by my unfoldment of Enlightenment, then I started to feel a lot of relief in my Moon. When my Mother got especially sick this summer I thought this would be the time where she finally passes. And, when she passed there of course, was this natural grief and sadness. However, this time, this Sade Sat 'time' I experienced her, being on the 'other side' and I immediately experienced her huge, big, bright soul, that didn't really 'die' but instead got released and liberated from this existence we call 'living'. In fact, my Mother is now about the 5th person I've experienced 'on the other side' after 'they' passed. And, each time now, the longer that I meditate and the longer I practice Jyotish, my perception of that other side is becoming clearer and clearer. I was so amazed that I could experience her so vividly in the new space where she is. She had this unique astrological nature in this life, and so much of 'that' was still apparent on the other side. She still was extremely concerned for her family or children, and was still so passionate about wanting to help us all grow! She had the Exalted Mars in her recent life's incarnation and a very good Jupiter so she was all about growing and especially helping others to grow. I was especially, struck however, how much she was the 'best' of her star's but without some of the smallness or inadequacies that so often come with our earthly lives. In other words, her release from this world was a kind of liberation, or a kind of graduation. And, because of all my personal work on myself all these years, I have to say it was with great satisfaction that I experienced her so profoundly in her next adventure. So, thank you again, for wishing me 'heartfelt condolences'. We each have an important Moon cursing through the veins of our hearts and the lessons and growth that we're all about is the panamount job of our Moon to help us with. I wish for everyone that they wake up to what their Moon lessons are all about and especially evolve in the way, that only our Moon's can teach us. It's so satisfying for me, now, to look back and to experience that my 2nd Sade Sat period can be so happy and joyful instead of sad and depressing! Instead of 'loss' what I'm experiencing is the joy's of my Mother's progress into her new existence. But, not in terms of some vague philosophy, faith or hope. No! Instead, I experience her as being 'over there' and happy and actually more! So, this is the real knowledge and wisdom of Saturn, not pain, not loss, not sadness and grief. But, expansion, and relief and the innate joy that comes from Enlightenment. Jai Sani! Sincerely, Mark Kincaid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
