Pisces...The Archetype



“The soul is the Middle Way as it stands between and mediates the primary polarity of life: Spirit and matter. The Soul therefore acts as an intermediary between the Essence of Life and its various forms of manifestations. Thus Soul provides the necessary channels through which consciousness may exteriorize and we may come to know ourselves. The grace of this knowing is that in the process, each of us comes to identify ourselves eventually as Divinity in manifestation. We learn this through the frequently painful process of transformation. We thus grow and develop until we finally realize that the quality of our consciousness, of our Soul, is Love.” –A.Q.


Pisces


Two fish connected by a cord facing opposite directions symbolizes the sign of Pisces.  Both of these representations signify the duality of the separation of the soul and the personality. The cord connecting the two fish is the Middle Way that allows Unity to replace duality. Swimming in the waters of consciousness Pisces struggles to fuse the lower and higher nature of self that is always at work in our daily lives.

This inner division is initially present, as the personality/ego has not yet learned to yield to the call of the soul. Imprisoned and bound by form it is not free to experience and express its own nature. 

In our everyday struggle to find balance and live with a purpose we wrestle with living the call of the soul.  This is the grail of Pisces that each of us live whether or not we are born under this sign.

Our initial attempts to find peace from within will be sought outwardly. And in our immaturity we will seek to satisfy the desires of the personality without any knowing regard to the enslavement of the soul.

Each of us has something that we are here to contribute and be in service of. Some of us have a clearer picture of what that may be while others struggle to find their clarity. Regardless of where we are at along the journey the Archetype of Pisces is represented here.

As we discover and follow our purpose we begin to release the agenda of the personality and transform, allowing spirit to be our guide. Giving way to the control of the personality the soul is then set free to do its work through us, out in the world. It is here we are able to transform our lives and the lives of others.

When we modify or adapt to serve a new or different purpose, we transform. When we go beyond, rise above, overshadow or eclipse, we transcend what we were and become something new. When we take transformation of our physical or lower perceptions to their highest expressions, the spiritual or higher state of being determines how this energy is directed. The conversion of these energies causes an alchemical reaction that creates a new way of perceiving and experiencing our reality. The "leaden" lower self (body) connects to and serves the higher "golden" self (soul) -  this is the meaning of alchemy.

"The only thing that is constant is change."

    The intension of this blog is to share information, contemplate life and to ask questions.  I do not claim to have any answers to these questions I ask. The only answers I have are to my own personal beliefs, which can sometimes change daily based on any given experience .    I s change the initiation for chaos?  Do we seek transformation or does transformation seek us? Transitions, letting go, surrendering to what cannot be controlled. "Everything must stay the same" a mantra that we all live with inside the human condition of the ego. If you think you can escape this, look again. "Yes, I want change to happen, I understand that it needs to happen but please don't let everything turn to chaos." Again I ask, is chaos the initiation to transformation?  Change moves us from one pattern into something new. In this process a pattern must be broken for the new pattern to be created. When something breaks, fragmentation occurs. The law of natu...

The Seventh Chakra

Location:   Top of head. Influence: Cerebral cortex, upper skull, skin. Associative Color:      Violet or White or Gold   Central focus:  Connection to spirit, enlightenment, self-realization, fulfillment, faith, individuation, humanitarianism, , selflessness, transcendence, attachment. We work our way up awakening each chakra to arrive at a form of enlightenment in the Crown Chakra. This is not a journey’s end, but a rebirth and beginning that which some describe as “Kundalini Awakening”.  Here in the seventh chakra awareness of our spirit is realized and our connection to a more encompassing spirit outside ourselves. This spiritual connection is not religion. Religion speaks to the tribal mind and is associated with the first chakra. When we awaken to the seventh chakra we are open to cosmic energy that is linked with Divine wisdom and thought. At this level the intellect is abandoned and the experience of a “knowing” is realized as is an establis...
