AwakenSky ...omg! Thank you soooo much for that Venus Group url.
I was curious and filled out the form, then chose a Cayce Past Life Report.
I'm 61 now, and will be 62 at end of May. I had been heavily involved in the Cayce organization for a good chunk of my earlier life, but I wasn't involved in astrology at that time. All my Cayce Study Group people became HEAVILY involved in astrology, even going to local studies with Zip Dobbins at that time.
(I had been in college, and my intellectual-plate was overly-full. I'd go to their groups for the spirituality/philosophy, and just float when they'd bring up astrology. I didn't get into astrology for myself until printing my first chart on November 6, 2007, 'just' to get into some new intellectual study and expand my learning something I hardly knew anything about, but saw everyday in the newspapers.)
Cayce Past Life astrologer, Ry Redd, approached me and asked if they could use my chart data for an astrology conference there at the Beach in the 1970s. He had come up to my apartment to 'see' how I lived, and I suppose, to compare this to my chart.
I had had deeper personal everyday relationships with a handful of the people Cayce had given readings to. (Lives from early American pioneers, Egyptians, Atlanteans, and the direct disciples of the Lord, Jesus Christ. AND!, (for fun), the incarnated Thomas Jefferson, writer of the Declaration of Independence for the USA -- who was quite charismatic and handsome, and CHOSE to include me in the generally guys-only group at the time I resided there. We debated well together, and he had complimented me for that.)
I can relate really well to everything the 'shorter version' reading said.... including musing at all the challenges I've had in this lifetime!
And it solved a strange cognitively dissonant feeling I've had about Vedic. I REALLY feel as though I've done that before, and this reading would have confirmed this to me had I seen it earlier. I'm supposed to use my intellect to spiritually lead.
One of the things stressed was how I'd make a "wonderful" minister. I had actually gone to one year of ministry school, and it had been 'miraculously' financed. To tell that story (which I've done in other posts around LL) is both hard, and extremely wonderful IN itself, as it unfolded in a VERY messy time in my life. I was going through extreme hardships, going through a heart-breaking divorce that shattered my life from that point on.
I had had some surreal dreams (3 months before) where I felt a direct contact with God's forces that radically changed my interior, 'just in time', for the discoveries I was about to make about the extreme and egregious double-life that my ex1 was living on the side. I don't know HOW I would have been able to survive all that, had I not given my life to Christ at that point. It kept me .... just 'kept' me.
I joined a nondenominational church and got HEAVILY involved in my Faith, and I believe that this is how I got through my whole life hence.
I know that expressing faith in God and mixing astrology with it is almost anathema to BOTH groups. And I feel sooooo torn between the TWO in my life, and I wonder when or IF I can have both loves every resolved, before I leave this earth?, because I find BLESSING in BOTH LOVES.
I've been on the back of busses, counseling people on spirituality AND helping them understand themselves with astrology too.

I just emotionally still hurt, maybe, from the betrayals. I was an extremely devoted soul, and had placed my entire existence INTO the Love of that man, and bearing his children, and having a business with him. I was sooo used. And my life was broken ever since. Wave upon waves.
Thing is... It's like that reading said, that husband and I were into a heavily 'intellectual' business, (and in relationship, I attract a lot of wealth...).
With the intellect, I had perhaps used that too much in previous lives? Like Atlantis? And my soul needed NOT to power-trip with my intellect, but more to lead BY the spirit, and my intuitive and Inspirational Gifts. ... Astrology studies WITH my Love for God and People and wanting to pour myself through His Inspirations to people, and to help guide them, have been a focus of my life for a while now.
I think I'm most sad because I've been having some growing health-challenges now and I'm sad that maybe it 'could' prevent (or will prevent) me from working in the normal physical environments of daily life.
I'm experiencing chronic pain from sonically abusive atmospheres now, that I haven't been able to escape. Some days I'm afraid that this atmosphere will end my biological life, for real.
But right now........ I am SOOOO BLESSED that I was able to 'see' a snapshot of my life presented IN that Cayce Reading by the Venusgroup. And I am just soooo Grateful today for this.
Thank you.
(And I'm sorry for my more-gloomy-type vibe, if you are a sensitive, as many folks here are? I need some physical restoration, right now. I don't do 'not feeling well' and being limited physically, with maybe as much GRACE as I need to? .. Must allow myself to have the down-time and to self-care? which I tend to want to shirk!!! LOL.)
(humor) Noooooo!!! God? Give me some energyyyyyy. I don't wanna lay down and nap!
{..I like to be busy busy busy!}
I may order the full report when my finances are ready to pay for one.
In the mean time, I think Radium has seen an outpouring of Love and Care for him in the Astrology 2.0 thread url I left above.
I really hope this will SHOW him that his life is WORTH saving, and that people Care.
He needs to STOP his using drugs and affiliating with drug or criminal people, and GET his life on a solid track, with High Ideals and Values set for himself, and to LIVE according to those ideals. Step by step!

Thanks for allowing me space to 'be' and to vent-somewhat today. I treasure my relationships here.

So much to sort out.
