Within this series, the “nines” have come to signify a turning point within relation: relationship within self, relationship without self.
Nine signified the threshold, the completion point of identity to the “seed” for the sake of expanding into a new sense of identity; all of the points from 1-9 represented a concept within the mind of the seed, concepts which come to be expanded upon through the life cycle, which will ultimately come full circle as this series comes to 72 to then return to 0. In this analogy, the seed was entirely encapsulated within its own sentient experience- animated within- to then break through its shell to begin the journey of extending the roots and expanding the sprout.
Nineteen signified the moment of realizing insignificance- and the decision point that exists in that moment. In this analogy, the seedling was entirely encapsulated within the earth to then break through the topsoil and begin the relation to the air, the Sun, and the animated life of living expression. From 20-29, the sprout grew and developed, gave rise to flower; gave rise to relation, interaction with foreign entities which shared knowledge both directly and indirectly, to then lead to the death of the flower and a new process of integration.
Our Star, the Sun- Sol- is 99.8% of the total mass of all within the Solar System [Worth Noting: of this 0.2% left, 50% of this total is attributed to Jupiter]. Being so overwhelming in magnitude, it is such an integral part of who I am that I can easily overlook how “Sol” contributes to me due to the relativism that is the minutia of direct experience.
As is evident even in this series, it is easy to lose sight of the ethereal concepts which were housed within the seed prior to the seed’s emergence into relation with survival. In the sense of it being so deeply known and understood, it is forgotten- to the point that this current reflection is a meta-cliché: for all who read this are telling themselves that they are the ones who realize this, who understand this- and yet, how is this awareness carried through each day and with each decision? How is the health, how is the vitality in relation to the creative force? Truly, what is the metric by which one measures this awareness into an embodied understanding?
Twenty-Nine signifies the emergence into this genuine relation with the Sun, the rising above the small-minded fixations that concern survival. These fixations are necessary for the sake of establishing a foundation, but what is the purpose of the foundation after it is established? What was the purpose of the flower, now that it has come to whither and fall away?
Just as at Nine the seedling emerged, and just as at Nineteen the sprout emerged, now at Twenty-Nine does the fruit begin to emerge- if at first within the cellular being of the plant. It is not yet showing any signs of such development, but what is beginning to develop is the new relationship with the Sun. Not only does He charge the center of Will Power (20. Solar Plexus: Discernment), but He also speaks through the Heart (31), the center of physical interconnection. His essence is the poetic expression of the Heart: it sustains all of this existence through its rhythmic beat, a beat that began before I was in awareness- and is the central core, balancing the three lower energy centers with the three higher energy centers.
How do I connect within myself with my undying truth?
What of this voice is always heard, and yet always overlooked due to its always being present?
What of my self do I overlook or take for granted?
What of myself am I compromising out of petty fears, out of survival?
Being in joy is not the work of this Life, it is the substance of it.
Once joy becomes the foundation, all that becomes springs forth from it.
