Clearing out the Ancestral Closet – A DNA Healing

25th March 2011

The Sun and Earth shift today and we all head down to the Root Centre for a party with Pluto and Saturn.  Sounds like so much fun doesn’t it?

I am in town waiting for my laptop to be serviced, writing this from an internet cafe, so I will keep it brief for now.  I wanted to share with you the overall energy of this current transit – Pluto – Earth – Saturn and then Mercury is conjunct Eris in the Gate of Increase in the Sacral Centre, adding to the transformative mix.  And no picture of todays transits but you can access one here:  http://www.jovianarchive.com/Pages/JustNow.aspx

This channel – the Root (58) connecting to the Spleen (18) is one that relates to healing our DNA.  Gate 18 is about clearing ancestral patterns and Gate 58 is about finding all the ways we block our ability to live in pure calm joyfulness, free of pressure, stress and fear.  This channel also has a specific relationship to how we deal with authority figures and institutions.   Over the past two weeks, Mars has been bringing a completion of the old warrior energy.   I have observed a major shift in the masculine during this time, as if the ‘head’ has gone.  As in ‘head’quarters … ‘head’master ….  ‘head’ office.  We are in effect headless, without the old sources of paternalistic authority and power, creating them anew within each one of us, a global network of bright lights.

The Sun is in Gate 17 in the Ajna Centre, supporting us to find a new way of expressing our ‘head’ energy.  This new form of authority and power is influenced by two factors – the flow of universal creative energy through us via the Sacral Centre and the inspiration we receive from the Crown chakra.  We navigate our way in this new world by using the instinctive and intuitive sense of the Spleen and the emotional energy of the Solar Plexus Centre.

To begin, first step outside your official role so you have more allegiance to your fellow humans and to truth and less to formalities and positions.  Leave your familiar corner behind and go all the way out the gates where you can participate with the whole group and be guided by it’s larger story.

Hilary Barrett, Gate 17 line 1 (Sun)

We have come to the place where we are safe to wander beyond our narrow personal walls because we have been clearing the corruption we held within our cells, within our DNA.  Corruption that we could perhaps call “conditioning”.  Corruption that has been handed down to us through multi-generational survival strategies written into our genes.  They tell us of fears and perils past and how to deal with them.  They operate mostly now as ghosts in the machine, their wisdom no longer applicable, leading us to old wornout responses to present crises that don’t help us but dig us deeper into dark places.

The Earth in Gate 18 line 1 explains:

The first step in engaging with corruption is to choose and own it as your own inheritance.  The child steps forward to take responsibility and the forefathers are without fault, you no longer blame your parents or your past for whatever has gone wrong.

In the past 10 days we cleaned out the ancestral closet and opened the doorways to the support that is available from our past, releasing the hindrances of angry forebears, their incomplete soul journeys hanging over our head.  This releases a massive amount of energy for us to get free of the blaming, confusion and chaos that has been created over time as each generation hid their shame and left a legacy of greater pain for the next.   Mercury conjunct Eris is bringing this sense of relief – you mean I’m not at fault here?

More tomorrow.
