Celestial Timings
by Cayelin K Castell
It is time for the Star Teachings to once again return to Earth,
Time for the Song of Creation to be sung,
Time for the star dances to be danced around the sacred mountains.
As in the heavens,
so it will once more be on Earth. http://pagebryant.com/starwritings.html
Exploring Timelines and other Time related mysteries..
Time is an illusive mystery with so many different dimensions and possibilities that go beyond our usual experience of clock time. Most everyone has had unusual experiences of Time, including speeded up time, time that creeps by, time out of time experiences that scientists might explain as a time dilation effect. There can also be bleed through from the past, or future, or other timelines in parallel realities. This most often happens in the dream state but can also happen in waking reality. Some people are so sensitive to the other timelines bleeding through to this one it can create a lot of confusion and difficulty in coping with this reality. The recent movie The Time Traveler’s Wife is a story about someone who is uncontrollably and randomly jumping through time.
Those of you who have been reading the Celestial Timings over the years probably know that I am personally fascinated by the mysteries of time....
...So when Tom Kenyon’s Hathor article landed in my inbox last month I was intrigued. I immediately loved the title “The Art of Jumping Timelines.” I resonated with this intuitively and it seems to confirm some experiences I have had. (You can read about two of them. This link is to an article I wrote in 2007 describing a Time Node experience in Southern France. This link is to a piece I wrote about my time out of time experience in Peru in 2002. Plus, the August 2009 Celestial Timings explored many ap sects of Time including Kairos and Chronos Time, or sacred and linear time. )
Tom Kenyon’s article from the Hathors begins by saying:
Although it may seem paradoxical to some, your timeline—your life—is only one of many simultaneous possibilities. And it is quite possible, indeed it is your birthright, to alter your timeline and the potentials of your life.
Your culture, for various reasons, has hypnotized you into believing that you are limited to one timeline. In this message we shall endeavor to discuss our understanding of timelines and how you can change them.
Whenever there is an increase of chaotic events, there is a convergence of multiple timelines. Due to the fact that your planet has entered a Chaotic Node and is experiencing ever-increasing levels of chaos, there is also an increase in what we call time nodes.
Time nodes occur when two or more timelines converge. As a result of their close proximity oscillation effects sometimes occur when the realities of one timeline bleed through, or are psychically perceived by those on a neighboring timeline. Strong timelines can also literally affect the possibilities and/or probabilities of other timelines within a time node. In other words, creative and novel effects often occur within timelines when they enter a time node (proximity to other timelines). http://tomkenyon.com/jumping-time-lines
I recommend checking out the rest of the article at the above link. It is long but very worth reading. Also, I have interwoven the idea of Jumping Timelines throughout the September Celestial Timings along with some other thoughts about the mysteries of Time. I am also suggesting, for those who would like to have an entertaining experience of Time Travel or Timeline Jumping some of the above movies are fun research. The 1980 movie Somewhere in Time with Christopher Reeves and Jane Seymour is a 1980 movie but it has an intriguing example of how to actual Time Travel through focused intention similar to the process the Hathors describe for jumping timelines.
The movie Sliding Doors with Gwyneth Paltrow explores a timeline split and follows the
main character through two different realities based on different choices that her different aspects make. This brings me to Richard Bach’s book One. The book describes Richard's adventures in exploring the different personal Timelines that occurred during important choice points in his life. He was able to track the alternate timelines created by alternate choices that he did not make and he saw how those timelines played out in an alternate reality.
These explorations into various expressions of Time reminds us that all creation, all timelines, all parallel realities exist simultaneously and we have the power to consciously choose the timeline that most resonates with our soul’s purpose. When we learn to master the art of Jumping Timelines we become skilled Time Navigators or Time Travelers navigating the various tides of time. Tom Kenyon’s article gives us clues on how to do that and these September Celestial Timings include a major focus on this topic that offers some additional clues and insights.
September 2010 Celestial Timings (all times PDT)
September 01, Wednesday. The waning Last Quarter Moon (9 Gemini) is exact at 10:22 am, and passes 8 degrees N of the eye of the Bull and one of the four royal stars known as Aldebaran at 5:00 pm. This royal star marks a key or access point that opens the pathway beyond our galaxy and the limits of our current Timeline. The Last Quarter Moon is a time for integration and assists in illuminating this pathway when we are tuned in to it. Plus, Gemini is the mystery school intended to take us beyond the limits of duality into the place of total freedom. It may help to remember that the path is not either or. It is not good or bad. It is not yes or no. It is not one or other. Rather it is about embracing it ALL and finding unity within the diversity. Note: Of all the archetypes Gemini is the most likely to easily embrace not only the concept but the practice of jumping timelines as it increases the possibility of greater freedom.
Venus passes 1 degree S.S.W. of Spica (24 Libra) at 7:00 pm PDT. Venus is the sacred star of the High Priestess. Mars is also very close within 3 degrees of Spica and coming into zodiacal alignment with both Spica and Arcturus Sep 4 – 8. Arcturus is a star that has been linked with King Arthur wielder of the sword Excalibur, a famous symbol for leading the people to freedom and victory. Excalibur, is one among many mythic swords that symbolize divine authority, virtue, valor, strength and spiritual evolution.
Another of these mythic symbols is described in the book of Genesis 3:24 as the flaming sword placed in Paradise at the East Gate symbolizing the rising Sun and new beginnings destined to keep the Way of the Tree of Life until the time of our remembering and returning to who we truly are. The Tree of Life is the connecting link between the Heavens and the Earth and the Earth and the Underworld. It is a symbol of unity within diversity reminding us that everything is interconnected. The Sword of Truth, the Sword of Light (the Flaming Sword), the Sword of Freedom and Victory are all symbols of our divine authority cutting the bonds of separation away from our true selves and lighting the path to re-union. This is the Way of the Tree of Life that beckons.
… and (God) placed at the east of the Garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life. (Genesis 3:24 King James version) http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+3%3A22-24&version=KJV
September 02, Thursday. The waning Last Quarter Moon is now moving through the center of the Sacred Hoop (0 Cancer) and the Galactic Cross that marks the area of the sky that looks out past the edge of our Galaxy at 11:50 pm. This means the Moon is transmitting inter-galactic vibrational frequencies beaming in from beyond our known galaxy continuing to create shifts in our perception and experience of our personal realities.
These shifts are easier to assimilate when we are conscious about what we think, feel, say, and do, because these are the activities that either support the vibrational energy or not. If what we think, feel, say and do is of a lower vibrational nature it will create greater discomfort with the intent to wake us up so we can consciously make healthier choices. For example, choosing high vibration activities including self-forgiveness, self-care, self-love, and genuine gratitude for the gifts we already have smoothes the way for these higher frequencies to be integrated into our daily lives.
When the Sun, Moon or other planets are crossing the Time Gates of the Solstices or Equinoxes a time portal becomes more accessible for choosing a new timeline going forward. This is especially true now that the Solar Gateways are aligned along the Galactic Plane (Solstices) and the Galactic Poles (Equinoxes). See Equinox article.
Saturn (4 Libra 18) is once again near the fixed star Zaniah (4 Libra 31) within a couple of degrees until the end of the month. (see Sep 1 Star Map) Zaniah is located on the wing or shoulder of the Virgin Priestess and is the sacred star of the Harlot. The original meaning of harlot as it was used in the 13th century described someone (usually a man) who didn’t have a fixed occupation or was someone who was a juggler or jester of either sex. It was around the 17th century the current meaning for harlot came into use to describe a woman prostitute.
Harlot actually comes from the world hierodule (similar root as hierarchy) or priestess. According to Nancy Qualls Corbet in her book The Sacred Prostitute these women were the priestesses trained in the art of sacred sexuality in the temple. This was a sacred training highly honored and respected in the times before the current judgments came into play. For example, the Sumerian mythic telling of Gilagmesh references the “hierodule,” or harlot as a priestess, a holy one, revered and honored. This was part of the hierarchy or class system of those times and these women lived and served in temples dedicated to the goddess.
Saturn passes this star every 29.5 years and retrograded here in January spending many weeks in this area of the sky. Saturn has returned for its last pass and this is a time to note the priestess archetype as she is showing up in current times. She is returning, though she is no longer supported in the Temple, rather, she is quietly re-emerging in the secular world and finding her way back to her sacred work and to her priestess sisters.
With Saturn hanging out near Zaniah this entire month it might be worthwhile to ponder what the original strength and meaning of this star was before the judgment of the patriarchy and the disbanding of the priestesses from the temples? How is Saturn assisting us in formulating a new healthy and empowering relationship with this sacred feminine aspect? How can we choose a new timeline that honors and values the gifts these mysteries have to offer?
September 03, Friday. Retrograde Mercury (10 Virgo) is at interior conjunction with the Sun at 5:35 am marking the center point of the Mercury Retrograde. Based on our new understanding of the Mercury cycle, the new cycle begins on September 12 when Mercury (06 Virgo) stations direct as a morning star in its Apollo phase. Apollo was a God of knowledge, truth, prophecy, music, poetry and art. The Apolloian expression of Mercury has a one-pointed, clear focus. During this phase Mercury will also reach its greatest elongation from the Sun in the morning sky on Sep 19 at 8 Virgo. (See Mercury recorded class info for more)
Mercury’s journey through the Virgo realm highlights the mysteries of Sacred Time and the magical link between the natural cycles and rhythms of Earth and Sky. This includes the idea of “right timing” or “appropriate timing” that is aligned with the natural rhythms of life. Focusing on the mysteries of time fit is a good way to focus the energy of this Apollian phase of Mercury. The Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean tell us about the mysteries of time:
Far, through strange spaces, have I journeyed into the depth of the abyss of time, 
learning strange and yet stranger mysteries, until in the end all was revealed. Know ye that mystery is only mystery when it is knowledge unknown to man. When you have plumbed the heart of all mystery, knowledge and wisdom will surely be thine.
Seek ye and learn that Time is the secret whereby ye may be free of this space…
…Once, in a past time, I spoke to the Dweller. Asked of the mystery of time and space. Asked him the question that surged in my being, saying: "O Master, what is time?"
When to me spoke He, the Master: "Know ye, O Thoth, in the beginning there was void and nothingness: a timeless, spaceless, nothingness. And into the nothingness came a thought, purposeful, all-pervading, and It filled the Void. There existed no matter, only force, a movement, a vortex of vibration of the purposeful thought that filled the Void."
And I questioned the Master, saying: "Was this thought eternal?" And answered me the Dweller, saying: "In the beginning, there was eternal thought, and for thought to be eternal, time must exist. So into the all-pervading thought grew the Law of Time. Aye, time which exists through all space, floating in a smooth, rhythmic movement that is eternally in a state of fixation. Time changes not, but all things change in time.
For time is the force that holds events separate, each in its proper place. Time is not in motion, but ye move through time as your consciousness moves from one event to another. Aye, by time ye exist, all in all, an eternal One existence. Know ye that even though in time ye are separate, yet still are One in all times existent." Ceased then the voice of the Dweller, and departed I to ponder on time. For knew I that in these words lay wisdom and a way to explore the mysteries of time. http://www.hiddenmysteries.com/freebook/thoth/thotht10.html
