 The
blue haze of spaciousness. Of an open sky. Of infinity. Open to
the unknown. Open to the universe. Open to the future. Like a flash
of lightening dancing free across the sky Aquarius breaks down and
through the old structures as an explosion of new growth.
The
water bearer. A human being bearing water. Healing water, life
giving water.
The
Airy soul of Aquarius knows no limitations. No beginnings and
no endings. All things are possible from his lofty point of view.
High above the confusion of earth he flies, wings outspread in
all embracing universal love.
Love and light and peace on earth he sings, his voice a star amongst
the shining tones of the heavenly host, the great white brotherhood,
the angelic choir. Living as he does in such refined atmospheres,
his innocence remains intact, uncontaminated by worldly pollution.
This
purity of heart, this simplicity of person carries within itself
a dew like quality, the essence of which like the water he bears,
bathes his spirit in everlasting youthfulness. Everlasting expectancy
and everlasting hope.
This
is the gift he offers the world and the jar that he carries contains
the very waters of life, spilt from above to quench the thirst
of those who are searching for their own truth.
Just
as Aquarius aspires to the heights of perfection and beauty in
the world of potential, so too he inhabits the higher realms of
intellect and mind with clarity and a sense of purpose not always
easy to bring through into the material world of form and limitation.
Freedom
to be is an essential part of his character. The need for personal
space to express his own peculiar self. Governed by Uranus, god
of heaven, created by Gaia (earth) and first of the gods to take
form and separate himself from the creative chaos, Aquarius teaches
the art of detachment. The ability to step back and let go of
all the ties that hold us in bondage.
From
his elevated stance the vision of life is wide. At the foot of
the mountain the view is hidden by the mountain itself, the fields
and forests that flank its side. Up here on the summit where the
air is pure and exhilarating and the snow sparkles virgin white
in the clear sun light, his heart swells in awe. Blue filled silence,
the sky an arms length away, reaching out and beyond into forever.
Down in the valley towns sprawl across the plains. People rush
about busy with their everyday lives. Trains, cars and lorries
speed past, tiny moving dots flashing in the light of the sun.
From up here it all seems very distant, and Aquarius can easily
open his spacious heart to humanity as a whole.
