Forewarning

Almost 2,000 years ago Paul warned the Galatians that God can't be mocked, "for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." This is one of the most important and universal natural laws. Occultist call it Karma, scientists the law of cause and effect, and in our daily lives the saying goes that whosoever soweth winds reaps a whirlwind.

Even thou for a while some people seem not to receive the rightful consequences of their acts, the final reality is that sooner or later, if not in this life then inevitably in the next, each and every one will reap what he has sowed. There are some who sow only good deeds and (probably for their lack of understanding regarding natural cosmic law) seems to receive only evil in return. Others surround themselves with riches obtained either illegally or inmoral, and may come to think that they have escaped human and even divine justice. But one day they will depart, alone and naked, to the spiritual world and then they will reap whatever they had sow.

The self knowledge -- and the social, spiritual and cosmic understanding one gets through the study of Astrology gives the individual a great advantage upon others. The materialistic tendency is to use this advantage to get what we want with no regard for God or neighbor. Lucre, vanity, lust, and sensuality ask us to act egocentrically. When this temptation comes we should remember the advice Solomon gave us at the end of his Ecclesiastes: "... the conclusion of the whole matter [is this]: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil."

As a professional astrologer I offer you my knowledge, understanding and experience. As a moral man I ask you to use it in resonance with God, cosmos, society and neighbor. If you do otherwise, I am in no way responsible for the evil you may bring upon others, neither for the negative consequences that may come upon you in this live or in the one to come.

The Twofold Manifestation of God

God manifest himself in various ways. One manner to analyze these manifestations is classifying them as "personal" and "impersonal." In His personal expression the Godhead manifest himself as the Trine God described in Christian Theology. His Self Identity and eternal purpose are clearly seen throughout Bible history. For more information on this I'll advice you to study Biblical Theology, which contrary to popular believe, has remained basically the same since the days of Paul. As an astrologer, nevertheless, my emphasis will focus on the impersonal manifestation of the Godhead -- his role as "vital cosmic energy."

In this role God is the primary active force that originates everything else: matter and energy, physical or spiritual. As this primary force the Godhead acts according to some very basic laws that we can study and learn. In its microcosmic [atomic and subatomic level] manifestation, this active force forms cyclical geometric [mathematical] configurations that, as they interact among themselves, originate the fundamental particles of matter. In the macrocosmic [outer space, intergalactic] level this same active force form similar geometric configurations that act as orgonotical centers around which asteroids, planets, stars, galaxies and other intergalactic phenomena are found. In between these micro and macro manifestations of the primary active force we, the living, find ourselves. Our organisms are in continuous interaction with the physical world, a byproduct of the microcosmic manifestation of the primary active force, and the cosmic world, a byproduct of the macrocosmic manifestation of the same force.

Endnote 1 - Orgonotical

Derived from or having to do with orgone energy.

Webster New World Dictionary defines orgone as follows:

Orgone: [term coined by Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957), Austrian psychiatrist in the United States, probably derived from ORGONE + ONE AS IN OZONE] a postulated energy permeating the universe and allegedly restorable to a person suffering from various emotional and physical ills by his sitting in a small special cabinet (orgone box) in which this energy was supposed to accumulate.

To this we may add that the ideas of Wilhelm Reich have not died. The scientist who embraced his ideas have continued to develop them. Several years ago they established the American College of Orgonomy in the East Coast -- right now new research facilities are underway in the West Coast.

Thus, the development of our personal identity is influenced by both, the physical environment that surrounds us, and the cosmic system we belong to. This personal identity arises and develops in continuous interaction with the impersonal manifestation of the Godhead; that doesn't means, however, that we could deny His Personal Self Conscious Identity. Along with the development of our own "personal conscious identity" our awarness of the existence of a "Personal, Self-Conscious Cosmic Intelligence" most grow also. After all, if we, the result of the interaction among various manifestations of the Cosmic life energy, are "Self-Conscious, Intelligent Beings," then that same energy in its own infinite and eternal manifestation should at least be the same.

God, we may conclude, is an infinite and eternal entity that manifest himself in personal and impersonal ways. In his personal manifestation He is the Trine God Christianity announces. In his impersonal manifestation God is the Primary Active Force that begets and sustains the entire universe. Both manifestations of the GodHead are legitimate, completely compatible among themselves and worthwhile of study and research.

There is, however, a difference we must take into account. In his impersonal manifestation God is an Active Force we may study using appropriate scientific methods. The knowledge thus obtained, however, is not necessarily perfect since it is a human interpretation that may be partially or even totally wrong. By the contrary, in his Personal Manifestation, "God has revealed himself to mankind": First through specific interventions in history; latter cohabiting with us for some 33 years [Jesus was God manifested in human form]; and presently through the "Holy Spirit" that Jesus himself sent to be with us "till the end of times."

Thus, the "Spiritual" truths that God in his own personal manifestation has given us [notwithstanding the minor distortions that even from the beginning our human nature has introduced into them] constitutes a much more solid and sure foundation upon which to edify our lives. The cosmic laws and spiritual principles that we learn through the study of Astrology and other fields of cosmic/hollistic research should be subordinated to the clearcut spiritual laws and principles that God through his historic revelation in Christ Jesus has given us.

All these fields of research, notwithstanding, have the Primary Cosmic Energy; that is, God himself as their subject of study. We should approach them with utmost respect and reverence. Otherwise I don't think that neither God, nor the zillions of Self-Conscious Intelligent beings that populate the Cosmos will appreciate our treatment of the Creator, Ruler and Sustainer of them all.
