The Calling

My methodology may be somewhat over and above what “traditional” astrology is (as defined by the American Federation of Astrologers’ standards) and out of respect for that, I felt it best to stick to the standards of traditional astrology’s explanation of astrology-however, do it my way. Because I just didn’t feel like traditional/typical astrology as written (past to present) was “enough” to make people truly understand it or care-past it being something to read while visiting a friends house then sitting it down, or perhaps it being convenient for chit-chat on a bad date they hoped would end soon. If explained properly, astrology is just as good a self-help/personal success/motivation/inspiration book as any other book considered as such.

In order to make the average person who knew or cared nothing about astrology, someone had to step up and make logical sense of the intuitive science of astrology that many consider “psuedo.” So I did that-by merely using the book of Genesis, basic math, an encyclopedia, a dictionary, and a thesaurus, while incorporating a little bit of: astronomy, psychology, philosophy, chemistry and physics in order to humbly share it with you-in confidence that it would be of benefit to you as it was for me (when I accidentally figured it out and how it worked for me).

At one time, I had even told my friend (who asked if I was still going to write my astrology book): “No, I don’t think I’m gonna do it because my interpretation of it is just too much to explain. It’s just something that I do-something that I understand and apply to my own life. I figured out my own “how’s” and “why’s, and I’m good with that…” is what I told her. After that conversation, something kept gnawing at me as if I was harboring a secret that until I took the time to explain, my very own karma mission and purpose in life would not be lived. My spirit kept telling me for years that I had a secret to share. And I began to feel like it was my duty to take the time and share it. Then one day-out of nowhere and for no reason but impulse and urge; I began writing my outline and filling in the blanks to my notes-and this book is the result.

I feel really good that I took the time to interpret it in a way to make it useful and something to consider meaningful and beneficial to add to your life-versus it being some astrology book that you’ve read once then you’ve read them all. I’ve studied astrology for too long and something inside of me knew that it served a purpose than that kind of disregard. 

I feel that that it was my calling to do this type of book/guide.

I look at it like this. In life, from childhood throughout adulthood, we are given what I call “life guides;” things to teach us how to get through life.

As kids, our parents give us their “life guides.”

Our educational systems give their “life guides.”

Our families and friends give us their “life guides.”

Many of us subscribe to a religious system of beliefs and our bibles and clergy give us “life guides.”

Society, and our environment even give us its “life guide.”

Whether we choose to believe in or follow these guides given to us by our family, friends, clergy, the environment, society or educators is solely up to us. But once we are able, we are free to live, think and walk the path that best suits us (which may or may not coincide with the “life guides” given to us at different times in our lives) but nonetheless, all those “life guides” are what shape our personality-the learned “us”-the “us” shaped by being guided-rights and wrongs corrected and understood (after about age five).

For me, my study of astrology is another one of those “life guides” like all the above.

My astrological “life guide” told me that I have a destiny that was my birthright, (based upon the approximate time, month, date and year that I was brought into this universe). I refer to that as the thing that shapes my personology-the innate “me.”

My personality and my personology is the totality of my full existence.

My personology tells me that although I have a life to live by way of free will or default, I have a destiny: a purpose and karma mission in life on this earth that I am to share with my fellow man by way of leading, organizing or communicating some thing(s).

My fellow man too, has that same destiny that they too, are responsible for fulfilling (whether they know it or not). I found mine, and wrote this book for you to know (and consider yours). During my writing this book I discovered an undeniable understanding of my very own purpose and karma mission in life: to communicate. I was learning, discovering, and writing-all at the same time.

What did I learn?

I learned that I was Cancer Sun sign, Taurus Moon sign, and Virgo Rising sign.

What did I discover?

I discovered that as Cancer Sun (ego) sign, Taurus Moon (id) sign, and Virgo Rising (spirit) sign, as destiny would have it; by way of my rising (spirit) sign of Virgo (whose purpose and karma mission in life as a mutable constellation is to communicate); my gift to the world would shine through in the form of communicating. Once I discovered that, there was nothing under the sun, moon, and stars that would stop me from communicating by writing: this book…(my secret) for you…
