Book 4 - Blue Triangle
Regulation and integration of behaviour, thoughts and feelings, maturation of beliefs and values (especially those to do with conventions, rules and relationships with authority) understanding of pace, timeliness and timelessness, combined with singularity of purpose.With your eye to your inner self, consider the following.Your capacity for progressing towards your goals needs to be founded on your ability to self-regulate, to be mature in your conduct, thoughts and feelings, especially your beliefs and values to do with social conventions, established rules and relationships with authority. You need to apply a mature understanding of pace, timeliness and prioritizing. Or, it could be that now is a time to abandon this way of being and give yourself up to impulse or put yourself for a while in the hands of others, in order to progress.You have an old mind, whether you be young or old, and the types of goals you set for yourself are mature goals that may take time to achieve. You have a sense of patience and knowledge of timeliness, when to take action and when to wait. You are prepared to make sacrifices, endure effort in order to progress. You are methodical and understand the art of prioritizing. Your goals relate to enduring things or timeless concepts. Your goals may be to do with good things coming to pass for those you love, or your descendants, or as broad as your whole community or your whole species or planet.You may be thinking about your own ageing process and wondering about the timeliness of your current actions and plans. Are you achieving your goals in time with the needs of your stage of life or are you late or early in your timing? Have you miscalculated in your understanding of your mental and physical ageing?You are secure in your beliefs and values, because you have thought deeply about them many times and you have been through the process of confirming, moderating or disposing of the beliefs that saw you through childhood. You no longer see your world as a place where things happen to which you adapt, but you are sharply aware that things happen most often because someone makes them happen. You see yourself as making things happen and take responsibility for the results of your own actions.You generally keep to social conventions and recognise that established rules come from careful thought and experience. You have a mature relationship with authority, not being in awe of those who have authority, nor anxious to mix with them, nor fawning towards them. You have integrity and know you would call persons of authority to account for abuse of their power, and you would challenge unreasonable rules or oppressive conventions.It could be that all of this is due for a shakeup. Sometimes things do just happen, outside our control or influence, and our adaptability is challenged. Perhaps your beliefs and values, which emphasise self-reliance and co-operation for mutual benefit, are due for a shakeup. Sometimes we require a giving away of control for faith in the Great Mystery and the Great Awareness beyond our understanding, and go as a child to connect with it, for the right things we desire to come to pass.Remember to give yourself time. Even in a crisis, patience may be as important as decisive action, in the achievement of your goal. Options that sit most comfortably with your values will emerge, and you may need to give some thought before you understand why those options fit better with your values and are the right options for you. It may be time to review your goals themselves under this blue energy. Are these old, redundant goals, born of a different light, which no longer fit you or your circumstances?Although you need to attend to issues of your integrity and ageing when you focus on your own nature and purpose in life, it may be helpful to measure yourself in the light of other energies. Observe the sensations of your body and mind when you consider giving more or giving less expression to your physical or sexual energy and appetites, and your enjoyment of material things; your ability to think clearly and detached from emotions; your emotions and their ability to know and flow towards the good; your capacity for transcendence, synergy, spirituality. One of these energies may be the key to a new path towards your goals, or the redefinition of your goals.Close your eyes now, and with a view to having the clearest sense of purpose and direction and restoring your own integrity and capacity for timeliness, your understanding of your ageing process and your understanding of the timelessness of fundamental truths, ask yourself -“What words would be right and helpful for me to say, or for me to hear another say, right now?” “What does that mean to me, what is that about?” “What does that say about the things I value and really want in my life?” “What does that say about who I am?”
