I'm still catching up on things delayed due to my site being hacked so haven't really had time to compose. I'll post a new article soon, but for now please take a new look at an article I wrote about how astrology fits in the life of an "enlightened being." For your renewed consideration, Would Buddha, Christ, or Any Holy Person Be Influenced By Astrology? Enjoy!

hello friend, i see that no one is brave enough to comment on this post :-) well,
so jupiter is supposed to be in my sign, its own home, after 10-12 years, and its supposed to be the best year of my life or so some astrologers say, hate to say so Robert but 10-12 years ago was one of the worst periods of my life, i just don't want a repeat of it, i was young with a very young child, without any means to support us, separated to be divorced, my family was finding it hard to accept my choices and i was miserably alone,
:-) hopefully a lot has changed since then and this year is not a repeat but...
as for buddhas and the types not being exempt from the twist of tales that stars bestow upon us,,,i think its a matter of one's free will/buddhahood - if u find it u can surpass anything, whether u want to name the 'surpassing' getting a better understanding or anything else, ur out of it by then Robert, it does not matter at all, in the various stages of buddhahood u may define that passage differently but when ur buddha/christ or whoever that bloke is on the bus with u, uv crossed an invisible line, u r out of the cycle of birth and death and stars,
thankfully we are all the 10000 boddhisattvas and will keep coming here for your words our friend !
love to everyone !

Hi abacus - Welcome back. Jupiter merely opens the imagination to the possible; it's no guarantee that just because the guest is at the door that one will recognize them, at least for awhile. You cannot repeat what you've already done, so don't worry. As for the rest, Buddhas and Boddhisattvas, that is a much bigger discussion than we can go into here. And truly, love to everyone.
