Celestial Serendipity – Find
Your Path
I’ve always had an interest
and fascination in things of a paranormal or psychic variety but I am my
father’s daughter as well, an analytical thinker who likes hard facts and
provable theories. So when I was contacted a recently by Lita Tikal, a
Transformational Astrologist, about having a reading done and doing a story I
was intrigued to say the least.
I gave Lita the information she needed to do my chart
before the reading, simply my birth date, time, and place. No other information
was requested or supplied. When I arrived I was very excited and anxious but
had a healthy amount of skepticism as well. Before we began I asked Lita to
help me understand what Transformational Astrology was and in a nutshell this
is what I got; Transformational Astrology is a reading of the sky, the
planetary alignment at the exact time, above the exact location of one’s birth
used as a tool to enlighten, empower, and increase self awareness. It is not a
“gift,” it’s not predictive, and it is not an intuitive process. Would that not
mean it is based on fact? On provable theories? Yes, it is, provided you accept
such sciences as Psychology or Sociology as fact. In all fairness I would say
most of us do. Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology, whose ideas are
still practiced and accepted daily, based Jungian psychology on many studies
and practices. Although he was a theoretical psychologist and practicing
clinician much of his work was based on exploring many areas including
religion, Eastern and Western philosophy, and astrology.
As for my limited experience and after my reading I must
admit I think even
my “proof is in the pudding” father would have to say that
there is validity. As Lita walked me through the reading, explaining what the
different cross section of the beautiful pie chart meant and how they affected
my personality and path through life my eyes were opened to some truths about
myself that I had difficulty acknowledging, understanding, or accepting before
they were brought to my attention; scientifically, in black and white. I wasn’t
told that a mysterious stranger would show up at my door or what the winning
lottery numbers were. I was shown my
personal strengths and internal battles in a comprehensive “it is what it is”
kind of way. I walked in open minded but mostly expecting to be entertained
(cocked head, raised eyebrow) and walked out feeling refreshed, at ease,
comfortable in my own skin, my mother’s beautiful dream.
“Only by much searching and mining are gold and diamonds
obtained, a man can find every truth connected with his being if he will dig
deep enough into the mine of his soul.” – James Allen
Whether you believe or don’t believe Transformational
Astrology isn’t going to predict or pre-determine your future. It can however
shine a light on your path in hopes of increasing understanding and awareness.
