Knowing how to work with opposing forces
First, allow me to apologize for skipping the month of June newsletter. Retirement got in the way by keeping me extra busy. Secondly, to wish you a happy Canada Day (our national holiday) if you are Canadian!
Anyhow, as we are traveling through the Rockies and the Kootenays at present, we saw last night a very bright star in the evening sky and wondered which one could shine so brightly. Our friend Viktor had an app on his phone and he looked it up: it was Venus conjoined with Mars! How interesting as Venus is the planet of love and Mars is the planet of war (Venus could also represent sensuality and Mars that of determination, dynamism).
The interesting point in these opposite forces is how to use them so they can serve a single purpose such as harmony. In the Initiatic Tradition, the movement of the wheel expresses the opposing forces and seen from above, it looks like one side of the wheel is going left and the other side is going right but it is precisely what make the wheel turn.
What we can draw from this example is that within us, there are opposing currents that pull us in different directions but if we nourish a high Ideal, such as harmony or recovering our divinity (becoming as perfect a our Creator), the opposing forces will start working together to move us forward toward this ideal. All our energies, all currents within us will work to fulfill our intention.
