"The Mysterious and the Manifest
Share the Same Source,
It is called Darkness"

~ Lao Tzu ~

Astrologically speaking, it is said the ancient Greeks were the first to develop an elaborate system of linking animals (inclusive of humans), colors, body parts, metals, plants, stones and other things with the Moon, Sun, the known planets and the twelve zodiacal constellations of their time. Down through the ages however, no single authoritative system of these linkages has ever been established.

It is funny, in a non-humorous way, how we humans create what we want to believe and then believe what we have created. These created beliefs are often based in our feeling of "lack" rooted in our feeling of "fear". If you follow our recorded history as a species you may begin to realize how we perpetuate these "feelings" as seen in who we choose to control us, what we choose to be entertained by or in how we choose to express ourselves verbally and physically, one unto the other.

For this sharing the focus will be for the Moon and Darkness, two areas that are often associated with things to fear through a lack of information, collectively speaking. Simply stated, the Moon rules the night in the presence of the Sun, just as the Sun rules the day in the presence of the Moon bringing validity to the phrase "there is light in darkness and darkness in light". Darkness can mean many things to different individuals and utilized accordingly but darkness itself holds no fear. Darkness is simply the Unseen or that which has yet to manifest be it life, thought, dream, idea, goal, subconscious patterns, feelings, or one's unfolding potential.

The Moon, Sun and Planets align for purpose as they were created to fulfill within Wholeness (the Universe). Where the Sun is used to symbolize Masculine Energy, the manifest, the physical or conscious awareness, the Moon is used to symbolize Feminine Energy, the unmanifest, the non-physical or unconscious awareness. Fair to state that from a scientific perspective there are no answers available as to the specific manner in which the Moon's gravitational and magnetic effect influences the ebb and flow within all life individually speaking, other than it does. Spiritually speaking answers are available all ways.

What rests beneath the surface of our Mind's fragmentation, our separation individually and/or collectively speaking? The answer to this mystery rests within the absence of information with regard to knowing the Self. One way to bring this answer forward is to explore the Natural Realm, that aspect of our environment that has been overlooked, ignored or forgotten inclusive of the Moon's influence Energetically speaking. Investigating this missing information will lead you from a lack of knowing (darkness) into knowing (light) as may be applicable to your own uniqueness internally as well as externally.

As you begin to seek clarity by choosing to move with the rhythm of the Universe you will begin to understand the forces of Nature at work in your life and you will be able to take a more active role in co-operative exchange with them. By opening your Spiritual self and Mind to the basic principles found within this part of yourself, you will begin to experience less fear through the appropriate use of what is available to you in any given moment, night or day.
