Organizing Chaos

Escher - Stella

Can a smile defeat the chaos? Can a flower heal the wounds of a war or a terrorist attack?

– No, of course, from the point of view of “obvious facts” and disproportionality of effects.

– Yes, of course, from the point of view of the seed of good, infinite truth and beauty which move a smile of love, or the existence of a flower: such creative principles – the good, truth and beauty – are totally antithetical to any event or motive of hatred and perversion.

If we had and used the power to destroy even the planet as well as ourselves, would all the signs of love really disappear into nothing? Is not to fear this also an absence of love or any other creative Principle, as well as an absence of that profound vision that knows how to transcend the infamous “obvious facts”?

In the current last part of the sign of Cancer, which pushes to make “a lighted House” of our consciousness and planet, this is a propitious time to organize the forces of Good, the only forces capable of changing things as animated by universal Principles.

Cancer cielo terra

Not setting up fences, armies or checks at the borders of our territories, possessions or points of view (which on reflection are quite flimsy with respect to the real reason we exist and live), but protecting the future of our beloved successors, dedicating ourselves to what really has the power to change things.

The Teacher of teachers, still unheard except by a few, taught to love our enemies and turn the other cheek, not to resign ourselves to suffer or to give in to the weak and petty minds, but to instill the true transforming power, Love: that unique saving force that unites and brings us together harmoniously, overpowering separation. To turn the other cheek lets us look away from the ‘big smallness’ of those who offend and betray the mutual care and protection, and focuses on the ‘small greatness’ of the confused or misled brother in order to testify, with certain vision, of his/her and our liberation.

We can’t save ourselves alone, or only on one side of the fence. Though we save ourselves on different levels of conscious evolution, humanity moves forward as one body and heart.

Instead, we must teach the immune system to heal cancer cells. And these are not the other human beings, but the regressive and divisive forces that dominate our fellow wayfarers (and almost all of us if put in the same conditions), when possessed by the monsters of ignorance, fear and anger.

How to organize the forces of Light and Love to heal ourselves as the human kingdom?

How to transform evil into a collaborator at first unconscious and finally a volunteer of Good?

Drawing inspiration from Heaven as a relentless source of evolutionary solutions, let us look to its signs.

Marte-Saturno-AntaresNeptune, the solar representative of the current sign of Cancer, is the great Solver of the god of war Mars, [1] which in these ‘days’ is dominant, both because in its sign Scorpio (geocentrically) and for its influence ‘evident’ at night, red as the underlying star Antares and the next Planet of trials and solutions, Saturn.

Neptune represents the Christ Principle (Buddhi) as the initiator of humanity, or Love-Wisdom guiding feeling, the current focus of the human race: if Mars instinctively moves our selfish desire that makes blood boil and foments both conflicts and passions, Neptune is the God of the purified Waters of feeling, aspiration and initiatory inspiration.

From 2011 to 2025 this Custodian of the solar Community is in Pisces, another watery sign like Cancer, which leads the ocean of common instinctive feeling to the spiritual responsiveness, to co-vibrate with the “intelligent substance” of planetary, solar, cosmic and finally universal Nature. And the Saviour Neptune is now in tension with Saturn in Sagittarius (in the absence of Love-Wisdom, this square rekindles fanaticism and crystallized ideologies) and with Jupiter opposite in Virgo (the promise and guarantee of active Service to pure Love).

Thus we are in a time of purification and emergence to the surface of the foams of human advancement, from the whitest ones at the bow of the Ship of evolution to the black of rearward propulsion — a propulsion which is still obtained from an obsolete fuel (human responsiveness), burning producing pollution, slag, ugliness. Pluto in Capricorn, the Destroyer from the celestial Abyss, is so explosively enjoining new reforms and reformation of everything unfit and imperfect, emphasizing the urgency of an epochal Renewal for its still enduring square (geocentrically), crystallizing but decisive, to Uranus in Aries, the Flame of the new Beginning.

Cancer nebulosa

Thus the Forces of Heaven, including the deeper current change of Age, are organized to mark the end of a cycle and beginning of another. All karmic bonds created by the body of humanity “come home to roost” under the common responsibility. There are no good and bad according to the common Good, underlying the gruesome display of facts: there are only minds well oriented to the essential Principle of common Good or disoriented from it. But the Heart of humanity is one and must learn to ensure immunity and integrity of its unitary body.

The highest depth of Heaven, the Great Master of Life, shows evidently the boundless potential that surrounds and pervades us, those levels of reality much subtler and higher than mere and confusing “obvious facts.”

Cielo profondo

In this light as far as the eye can see, we can reorganize our perspective. When “is difficult to” avoid complaining, resist in misfortune or suffering, rejoice rather than get depressed, have confidence in human beings, love those who hurt us, “the enemies of humanity”, all these feelings, emotions and thoughts reveal themselves as licit yet disorganized energies. They are poorly oriented through being magnetized toward mundane facts, internal or external, and not well oriented to and by the Christic Principle — that active or creative Principle, heritage of Humanity and beyond, which is in the heart of our head and our body, ready to energize our will and nourish our clear vision with all possible wise and forward-looking solutions.

If we ourselves do not dominate or well reorganize our human laboratory made of mental, emotional and physical experiments, how can we build a House lighted by Love on our wonderful Blue Planet?

Mandala Caos OrdineIf we do not join our sparks of certain hope (Neptune opposing Jupiter between Pisces and Virgo), how to defeat darkness, unreality, death?

This laser of the common view fixed on the common Good, never biased, always impersonal and deepest as the sky, will attract the solution to separateness, inspiring even those weak minds at the head (effective, thus apparent) of the destinies of peoples. There is really no alternative, since any ‘external chemotherapy’ would sooner destroy the whole organism than selectively eliminate any metastases of current terror. The body should not be undermined by further oppositions and separations, but strengthened in its natural power of self-healing.

Is it simply difficult, or rather urgent?

Those, like white cells, which are already steady in the light and are able to focus the evidence of Reality can strengthen themselves through this primary Idea of Unity, and place this indestructible crystal as the guiding light both of present and of all evaluations and reorganization of facts, assured that the tidal wave of chaos will not survive long. It may bring destruction in the territories of Form, but not in those of the Heart, that subtle magnet never born and thus never losing.

If those of us living now will not do it, others will, in better times brought by the unstoppable wave of evolution, when humanity will be sufficiently exhausted with being myopic, sectarian, irresponsible, competitive and hostage to all manner of fear of losing what could never be owned.

Ours is in fact only the Common Good, Heaven, the Infinite, the ability to love instead of separating. The rest, including thoughts, desires and body, are only temporary assets to be preserved or left for common and harmonious progress .

Is it difficult to learn to see as such, or liberating?

The point is to shift our gaze from what to how and why: we can also temporarily isolate cancer cells from the body in order not to damage the whole organism, but without fear or hate or pity-of-ourselves. It is the why and how an act is performed that changes the substance of things and prepares a higher vibration for future events.

If we agree to think that nothing happens by chance, but for a shared responsibility at the global level, then we can use everything for transformation and reorganization through the benevolent eye of common, unified and humanitarian vision.

We are all responsible for what happens on the planet in the here and now, and we might as well throw every resource into enlarging our heart and destroy the polluted confines of our ego-centric vision.

The Principle of Love knows neither distance nor time, nor failure or death. To all of us, human beings yet even a little ‘divine, belongs the task of reorganizing chaos, bearing

Light in confusion,

the essential reality of Unity,

the immortal beauty of Truth.

The Principle of Love in us, certainty of glory


[1] Mars is “the desire (Kama) that translates into action the Will of Vulcan (Sun)”, first setting up conflicts and oppositions, ultimately serving the universal motive of Love: “Kama, combined with the higher Manas and Buddhi, forms the higher Subtle Body or spiritual soul of the spiritually evolved man”. (From H. Roerich, Letters vol. I, p. 244).
“Kama is the first conscious, all embracing desire for universal good, love, and for all that lives and feels, needs help and kindness, the first feeling of infinite tender compassion and mercy that arose in the consciousness of the creative ONE Force, as soon as it came into life and being as a ray from the ABSOLUTE. Says the Rig Veda, “Desire first arose in IT, which was the primal germ of mind, and which Sages, searching with their intellect, have discovered in their heart to be the bond which connects Entity with non-Entity”, or Manas with pure Atma-Buddhi. [the human with the Spiritual and Universal Soul]”. (From H. P. Blavatsky, The Theosophical Glossary, pagg. 170-1).
