\Path of Service/
/moon goes void-of-course at 7:09p PT | 10:09p ET | 2:09a(M) UT
until it enters Libra at 7:42p PT | 10:42p ET | 2:42a(M) UT
Things are supernaturally quiet as I type this late at night on Saturday. The Old Moon is dying as I write, the New Moon occurs an hour from now and the world seems in fact dead! It is rather refreshing. No noise from the neighbors, no unwanted emails. Maybe it is something like the Deep Sleep phase of the lunar month.
So we may awaken somewhat on Sunday . . . after the New Moon.
Many are wondering how to control their bodies and their eating habits. Many are thinking about complex but beautiful interpersonal relationships. Business and finance are emphasized: Can I make my good fortune last? is one of the questions highlighted. Yes you can, with care and common sense. Saturn is the planet of wisdom because he shows what we have learned from bitter experience. You have lost in the past, and learned how to not-lose by those losses, so you can be in good shape in the near future with that wisdom to guide you.
The hidden is emphasized (the 12th house or field in astrological nomenclature). This can be research or detective work. The habits of friends and neighbors take on importance. Communication holds something back while revealing only what it seems wise to reveal at present.
Service to people or to the world (to G*d, really) is satisfying no matter how perplexing at first until you get the hang of it.
A friend really does want to share with you more than is possible at present. Conditions beyond his or her control are responsible for your not hearing from him or her.
You are learning how to control your business or your budget.
Love is intricately involved with or dependent on service to the loved one. The quotation from Sai Baba in the P. S. will tell you something about that. The "loved one" you serve is not always your first choice . . . but might be if you serve the "one you're with" first.
{Sunday} /Path of Service\
Cosmic Piper
P. S. You have to seek love only through love. The Gopikas prayed: “Oh Krishna, play Your sweet flute and sow the seeds of love in the desert of loveless hearts. Let the rain of love fall on earth and make the rivers of love flow.” The rivers of love must flow continuously. It is enough, if you can understand this one principle of love. This love is everything. Treat this love as the be-all and end-all of your life. Do not direct your love towards material objects. If you continue to love for love’s sake, then such a love will be eternal. It is not the body that is to be loved, but the principle of love. All the names and forms are evanescent and impermanent. Love directed towards temporary objects or beings is physical, whereas love for love’s sake is eternal. Love is God. You must attain Divinity with such love. ---Sri Sathya Sai Baba (Divine Discourse, 28-Oct-2003)
