Friday 3 February 2012
The moon is gratifying our desire for a happy Friday, for I have not found its square with Venus to be terribly troublesome in the past. It can be a kind of temptation, a desire to jump into some attractive relationship prematurely, but the results do not have to be bad. It can be fascinating. The fact that it is also square Mars, which opposes Venus, is why I couldn't give the day an A rating socially. However, "bold" could be the right word, if you are reasonably careful not to step on toes metaphorically (Mars in Virgo opposite Venus the sign of the feet). Dancing, however, could be a thrill.
Money factors seem on the up-and-up. Your mind can locate strategically whatever will benefit you whether financially or socially. This has an element of fate, which one can lean on as it leans on oneself, in which it is comfortable to trust.

An Undevout Astrologer?
One reason I am emphasizing the Bible, religion, spirituality, is because of the serious truth of an old adage, repeated by Max Heindel, that "an undevout astrologer is mad." This has more than one meaning. First, anyone who perceived the truths of astrology and yet could deny Intelligent Planning of the solar system and of human beings would indeed be mad! Second, pride would overtake an undevout astrologer, who might begin to think himself master of the universe.
Some kind of devoutness in the face of the Infinite, and of our Creator, however one chooses to visualize Him or It, is absolutely necessary to anyone rising beyond the dull perceptions of ordinary humanity.
On the topic of the Bible, continued:
3. Another problem (two were discussed yesterday) connected with appreciating the Bible is the absurd notion that everything in it is presented and meant to be taken literally. It is as if the critics of religion and the Bible had no elementary perception of what hyperbole and metaphor are, or what inspired writings are, which invariably use hyperbole and metaphor and other literary devices to give some hint of Realities which, of course, if they are of G*d or the Divine, are way beyond our ordinary thinking ability.
Therefore those who make fun of the notion of God as the Creator of the universe in six days are simply silly, unlearned, uneducated. They do not know that centuries ago, by Philo in Alexandria, by the Jewish cabalists everywhere, the teachings of Genesis were interpreted allegorically and spiritually. Only American Christian fundamentalists of the most simplistic sort take these stories literally. Even the scriptures they purport to believe in refute them, for they say that "a thousand years to the Lord is as one day." Then why not a million or a billion years?
Of course, these atheists do not want to know about the truly profound spiritual interpretations of the Scriptures, spanning many centuries, because they are so firmly committed to and locked into their superficial materialistic preconceptions that no one can jolt them out of them, except possibly death or a near-death experience. (I have been reading about these recently in the superb books of Raymond Moody, Jr., which came out a few years ago but are definitely worth re-reading.)

Secret Treasure; Thursday's Forecast
A lot of thinking is going on. There are intellectual, philosophic or religious differences to reconcile or fight out (Mercury square Jupiter) and differences of habit and predilection which make for separation or covert repugnance or indifference even toward those important to you. Many are struggling to re-invoke health rules they have temporarily abandoned (Mars retrograde in Virgo opposed to Venus). "Oh, I have fallen off my exercise program, or recommended diet." Of course it is well to keep trying.
The moon in Gemini trine Mercury and the sun in Aquarius can be cheerfulness about everyday things, routines, job, and co-workers. It favors also business or financial moves or transactions. A happy social element, plus quick insight, lightens tasks. This may reach its peak just before the time given in the ratings.

Secret Treasure
The vexed question of Bible-reading hinges on a lot of things, two of which I will mention:
1. There is a lot of false, injudicious, confused or confusing use of the Bible by a lot of groups, teachers, and preachers. Therefore those who have suffered under their direction or control as children, or later, reject the whole Bible rather than realizing that those who were interpreting it to them were, simply, wrong.
2. The Bible is only part of the world's wisdom. The teachings of the East, especially of Hinduism for me, reaching a culmination way beyond traditional Hinduism in Sri Aurobindo (and at a different level in Sai Baba), are necessary to expand or supplement the Semitic teachings of the Bible. There are also the teachings of Plato and the Neo-Platonists, often compatible with the Hindu contribution, which provide a really important supplement or complement to the Bible, as many gnostic Christian and Jewish groups and seekers have recognized.
So, to any who are interested, I must say: If you were to read the Bible, according to a good plan (I have one which I would offer to anyone who writes to me), and forget everything you heard in Sunday School, or confirmation class, or from TV or street preachers, or anyone else, and just ponder those Scriptures as if you had never heard of them before, with an open, inquiring mind and searching heart, you would be amazed at what you find.
Thus the title, "Secret Treasure." And I mean that more literally than you might surmise. Financial success (or else contentment with what one has), prosperity, fulfillment of every kind, is taught by those peculiar, obscure, disturbing, alarming, yet often comforting and illumining chapters, whether in the Old or New Testament, Tenach or Gospel, prophets or apostles. There are secrets within them which I will not tell, because you need to find them for yourself if they are to benefit you.

Over the Rainbow, Infinite Love; Wednesday's Forecast
Probably you are feeling you want to focus and concentrate on your business, your work, your reason for being. If unemployed or retired, this can be a personal project, hobby or volunteer activity. There does not have to be a sense of burden about this, but gladness that you feel you are on the right track.
The time given below for improvements in two categories is when the moon enters Gemini; before that it is only void-of-course a short time, but its last aspect before that is a square with Neptune, good for spiritual contemplation or realization but not usually for business or social affairs.
The hard aspect now is Venus opposing Mars. The ten-degree orb of this is January 25-February 8. It has multiple meanings, all of which I shall not attempt to elucidate, but may give you a clue to the whole schlemiel. It is, yes, disagreement or tension between the sexes, at a basic level, but more than that. Venus is comfort; Mars is challenge. So one person (of either sex) challenges another's comfort, by words, acts or attitudes.
The creative side of it is serious restructuring in order to overcome tensions within oneself. Mars is part of yourself, Venus another. Your Mars wants to be bold, courageous, strong. Your Venus wants to relax and enjoy the "good life." Mars says that life is not good if not manful, challenging, achieving. Venus says, Okay, but don't push me too hard. Life is for fun and pleasure too. And so it goes. Through all this you can arrive at a more understanding reconciliation of these two parts of your nature. For some it will be, for example, a struggle to change diet or other habits.
That may be an oversimplification but it gives a clue. And, by the way, I don't mean to imply that women are lazy; quite the contrary; and in India for millennia the active aspect of Deity has been called the feminine one, Prakriti, Maya, or at higher levels the divine Shakti. This is not exactly Venus, except under her aspect of Mahalakshmi, and so Venus may be called the more passive side of the female gender, the one devoted to beauty, clothing, jewelry, and the like, rather than the active feminine which takes care of children and the household and a job like the Indian goddess with six arms. That aspect of female skill may be, astrologically, both the moon and Saturn. And, beyond all this, females have Mars in their charts and males have Venus.
With the Venus-Mars opposition there can be harshness and unkindness (Mars) plus an extreme sensitiveness to that unkindness (Venus), and so unhappiness and touchiness. What usually would appear a harmless comment or act might seem a mortal insult. The prevailing dissatisfaction can make one highly critical of people, expecting more than they can deliver.
Another facet of this aspect is separation, so that even if there is no obvious argument or disharmony, people drift apart or are forced apart by circumstances. Of course, since the aspect is temporary, the separation may be also.
Back to paragraph 1 for a positive attitude about what can be done today. The rest may help you pass through, and minimize, the emotional stress while forwarding real purposes.

Over the Rainbow, Infinite Love
A letter from a reader:
I have been subscribing to your forecasts for several years now, and I find I do not resonate with your new format or your alter ego "sir real". I was raised as a "Christian" and later in my adulthood discovered my own truth about God! Christianity puts a lot of human attributes on God that aren't God at all! Pure and simple God is Love! So, if God is Love then why should I fear God/Love? I appreciate that religion got me to where I AM today, but I AM grateful for a different perception of this Higher Power! I can also understand that this is your path and can accept your need to add some religion and guilt to the Cosmic Piper......I just skip over the alter ego parts. Sir Real......Reality is dependent on Awareness! These are the times to be moving out of 3D and truly experiencing our higher realities and consciousness.
Blessings to you Hugh Howard Higgins! I love and appreciate you!

Thanks for writing, Y. I won't argue with you, except to say that I feel the "New Age" movement is missing the boat by not realizing G*d is larger than themselves. Maybe that does not apply to you. I find that they lack all real humility, all ability to bow down to something greater than themselves, and finally believe there is nothing greater. Which is just egoism, the opposite of spirituality. The Bible is tremendous, enormous, amazing. It is very well worth studying and re-studying no matter what one's beliefs, to aid and refine one's beliefs. And I have to say that no one has transcended the message of Jesus. I understand your statement of a more loving G*d, and that has been around a long time in Christian Science, which I also study, and in cognate movements which were actually the basis of the New Age stuff, which I am afraid has gotten pretty sappy lately. Thus my return to the Bible. Jesus taught an infinitely loving God, for those who have "ears to hear." And I do not apologize for studying the Bible! and shall continue to write about it. The one who humbles himself is the one who is raised up. It has taken me a long time to learn that and I am still learning it . . .
An infinitely loving God loves us enough to make us aware of when we are causing others, or animals, suffering (as all meat-eaters do, considering the horrible tortuous conditions in which "farm," or meat-industry, animals are kept) and so He makes us aware of our "sins" in traditional terminology, our mistakes, the things we are unconsciously doing which make others or animals or the planet suffer. If we are ignoring those messages from conscience, we need to feel more "guilt," not less, in order to correct the situation.
As I have stated often, I am also a student of Sri Aurobindo's teachings, which might accord more smoothly with your own views.
Best,
Hugh
P. S. You might like the writings of Emma Curtis Hopkins, an old-timer who was also, with Mary Baker Eddy, at the base of the New Age teachings but still held on to enough of the message of the Bible to be more profound than the later stuff. Also Charles Fillmore, founder of the Unity movement, who wrote a compendious Metaphysical Bible Dictionary (and was a vegetarian and advocated such a diet). "Reality is dependent on Awareness," yes, I agree, but facing the suffering of others, which is what Christ Jesus is trying to teach me, is also part of awareness . . . in order to heal their suffering, yes, but we need Avatars such as Jesus to enable us to do that. If it weren't for Jesus I would not be writing the forecasts, nor would I even be here physically.

G*d is for the Weak; Tuesday Forecast
Tuesday Forecast, 31 January 2012
I believe you are making progress in your career and your most basic plans for economic well-being. As we approach the center of the Bright Hermetic Epoch it is well to consider what one has learned in the past month or two and "seal it in" before one forgets it. Or, if there is still more to learn (as always), one can continue to refine or perfect the quest. (That center is technically February 6-7 when Mercury is closest to the sun, a week from now.)
This might be the best "social" day of the week, although I couldn't give it an A rating because of the Venus-Mars opposition. You might want to be in touch with someone special, or get together if possible, or have fun somehow.

G*d is for the Weak
I find that no one has written expressing the slightest interest, agreement or disagreement with my writings on the Bible and on the nature of the spiritual search according to individual horoscopes. (Oh yes, one individual.) I guess none of you are interested. I guess all you care for is Cosmic Piper's highly doubtful predictions. Maybe you are strong, but I am weak, and try to slip some grain of Biblical insight into your awareness:
"Where is your wise man now, your man of learning, or your subtle debater--limited, all of them, to this passing age? God has made the wisdom of this world look foolish. As God in his wisdom ordained, the world failed to find him by its wisdom, and he chose to save those who have faith by the folly of the Gospel." --Paul, I Corinthians 1:20-22
"Divine folly is wiser than the wisdom of man, and divine weakness stronger than man's strength. My brothers, think what sort of people you are, whom God has called. Few of you are men of wisdom, by any human standard; few are powerful or highly born. Yet, to shame the wise, God has chosen what the world counts folly, and to shame what is strong, God has chosen what the world counts weakness. He has chosen things low and contemptible, mere nothings, to overthrow the existing order. And so there is no place for human pride in the presence of God." --Paul, I Corinthians 1:25-29
And, from centuries earlier:
"Prosperity and ease look down on misofortune,
on the blow that fells the man who is already reeling [unemployed],
while the marauders' tents [Romney, Gingrich] are left undisturbed
and those who provoke God live safe and sound.
Go and ask the cattle, ask the birds of the air to inform you,
or tell the creatures that crawl to teach you, and the fishes of the sea to give you instruction.
Who cannot learn from all these that the Lord's own hand has done this?
In God's hand are the souls of all that live, the spirits of all human kind.
Wisdom and might are his, with him are firmness and uinderstanding.
If he pulls down, there is no rebuilding; if he imprisons, there is no release.
If he holds up the waters, there is drought; if he lets them go, they turn the land upside down.
Strength and success belong to him, deceived and deceiver are his to use.
He makes counsellors behave like idiots and drives judges mad;
he looses the bonds imposed by kings and removes the girdle of office from their waists;
he makes priests behave like idiots and overthrows men long in office;
those who are trusted he strikes dumb, he takes away the judgment of old men;
he heaps scorn on princes and abates the arrogance of nobles.
He leads people astray and destroys them, he lays them low, and there they lie.
He takes away their wisdom from the rulers of the nations
and leaves them wandering in a pathless wilderness;
they grope in the darkness without light and are left to wander like a drunkard.
He uncovers mysteries deep in obscurity and into thick darkness he brings light."
--Job 12: 5-9, 10-22

Monday Forecast 30 January 2012
Monday Forecast, 30 January 2012
There's a focus on money, resources, finances, and ways of gaining them or making them more secure. This involves conflicts between various methods or options. However, you are well prepared to estimate correctly which options are likely to be more successful, if you take your time and trust your calm judgment.
Another focus is study, research, learning, in ways whcih are fascinating and mind-expanding. You are determined to hold on to a particular course of study (as in a school or on your own) until you have gained all it has to offer at the current time. You don't mind restricting or limiting yourself, in other ways, in order to do this because the quest for knowledge and understanding is absorbing.
Even your times of entertainment have learning wrapped in or around them.
Saturn in the last degree of Libra trining Neptune in the last degree of Aquarius (where it has been for twelve years) suggests the culmination of some kind of spiritual research or quest for wisdom. You might be able to identify this as something paying off for you at the present time in your inner realizations. "Things are good; the world is good; the Divine is present," is part of what this aspect means, with all the inner content of those brief statements opening up more widely to your comprehension.
The time given below for improvement in the social scene is when things start to loosen up a bit so you can move gradually into an evening mode of fulfillment.

Weekend Forecast, 28-29 January 2012
It looks like people are wanting real rest and recuperation this weekend. Things have been good for forward progress, as I have been pointing out, but maybe you feel "Enough is enough for now" and need that relaxation into your subconscious longings known as sleep-and-dream-time, or if you can attain it, the higher ascent into Spirit.
The low ratings for social life do not mean you have to be alone, of course, although some aloneness might be just what you need. If with someone, the clue is to make that time as happy as possible by avoiding the harsh and painful topics you know the other wants to avoid. This is not timidity so much as wise caution, and respect for the Other's predilections. Something within most of us is a repressed prison warden or tyrant or master in a reformatory, wanting to get people to do what we think is for their own good (and ours and G*d's). Believe it or not, the ones you want to reform also have this feeling, and want to reform you. To avoid a pointless tug of war, or fist fight, nobility, generosity, and even magnanimity are called for.
Of course it's not all bleak, but by pointing out these trends I hope to help you find a less stressful middle course. Your hopes and aspirations are strong, and you can continue to develop plans and strategies, but with deeper trust in the Divine to work things out for and with you, so that you do not get yourself or others into a "tizzy" (I am not sure what the technical definition of that word is, which my mother used to use, but I think we all get it).

To avoid a pointless tug of war, or fist fight, nobility, generosity, and even magnanimity are called for.
Of course it's not all bleak, but by pointing out these trends I hope to help you find a less stressful middle course. Your hopes and aspirations are strong, and you can continue to develop plans and strategies, but with deeper trust in the Divine to work things out for and with you, so that you do not get yourself or others into a "tizzy" (I am not sure what the technical definition of that word is, which my mother used to use, but I think we all get it).
"In the light of omnipresent intelligence, is there not One who knows all things, all roads, all combinations, and what will be the outcome of every one?" --Charles Fillmore

Friday Forecast, 27 January 2012
The division-time in the ratings is because of the moon being void-of-course at the end of Pisces before it enters Aries. It may be harder to get things under control or in shape before that time.
Generally it seems a bright day full of clarity and promise, so that, at least in the second part, you can track along with plans successfully. Business is on track. What seems right or to be an opportunity probably is a right opportunity.
It is not wise to stir up a hornets' nest, ever, but the human hornet also is prevalent while Venus opposes Mars and the moon joins Uranus. If the matter is touchy, you probably should avoid it, or else be ready for the sting.
"I know what I'm doing; leave me alone" is the general mood. And probably he or she does; and so do you; so it is a matter of individual projects and hopeful schemes each proceeding in its own way and not necessarily conflicting with those of others.
