Today’s Oracle takes us to the Sagittarius weekly for Aug. 13, 1999
Modern “spirituality” has placed its focus, rather obsessively, on “healing.” As the decades of the culturally-accepted, buy-the-book desire for enlightenment have proceeded, the focus has largely remained on getting well and feeling good, which are good starts but only go so far. As a Sagittarian (Sun, Moon or rising sign) you are very likely blessed with eternal optimism, so such processes do relatively little for you. What we’re now facing in the consciousness movement is the necessity for vision, and for the warrior spirit that will make that vision real. You, in particular, are headed for a brilliant few years on this path, starting right now.
The Daily Oracle offers a horoscope selected randomly by our Intelligent Archive Oracle program, unique to Planet Waves. It’s also a database of my horoscopes going back to the late 1990s. You can use the Intelligent Archive Oracle to answer questions and give you ideas for how to handle problems and situations you cannot see through. This feature is available to our All Access and Core Community members. See this link for more information.
I’m looking at the date of this one, August 13, 1999; two days after that significant August 11, 1999, solar eclipse and Grand Cross. That entire year — and particularly August — was a clear demarcation point, both for me personally (sun in Sag) and, it appears, for the world. “Clear” = extreme, painful, challenging, traumatic, powerful; like receiving a gigantic case of whiplash. The following years have indeed required vision and a warrior spirit. Interesting that it came up in the Oracle today, after such a powerful week personally and societally.
Make that “receiving a gigantic case of whiplash while the earth quaked beneath my feet, going through the fires of hell.” Thinking about it, this week just ending had much of the same feel for me as the 1999 experience.
