CFC Countdown is a series leading up to the publication of It’s All G.O.Ø.D.: A Conscious Co-Creator’s Guide to Healing the Effects of White Supremacy. The series chronicles the pathway across six cities to finally end up in Puerto Escondido as the “purposeful pawn.” To receive weekly updates click here.
If you’ve read any of my books, you would know I’m fond of saying life exists in cycles and cycles. One of the gifts of being a “purposeful pawn” in G.O.D.’s playground is being able to put these cycles into context. This doesn’t happen at first when you are in the throws of the experience. Yet it does happen gradually, mathematically, astrologically, and even astronomically if you pay attention.
BOOK TITLE SUMMARY
Coming Full Circle: Acknowledging the Self, the Struggle, and the Saving Graces of Love was the original book title when I began this journey back in 1999. So much has changed since then. Yet, what hasn’t changed is the power of the number three—the trinity. If I were to take the original book title and break it down into three Saros Cycles it would read something like this:
Saros Cycle #0/1: Ages 0-18: The Self– Seeking to Know Who I Am
Saros Cycle #1/2: Ages 18-36: The Struggle-Standing up for Who I Choose to Bee
Saros Cycle #2/3: Ages 36-54: The Saving Graces of Love-Sharing (and Learning) about Who I’ve Bee-come
SAROS SERIES SUMMARY
First discovered by the Babylonians, a Saros Series is a family of around 72 solar and lunar eclipses that occur every 18 years and have a beginning, middle, and end lasting over a thousand years. My theory is Saros Series are how families of incarnated spirits “Surf the Earth.” In astrologer Bernadette Brady’s classic, comprehensive work, Predictive Astrology: The Eagle and the Lark she states,
“The end of the cycle is when the Series finally produces a tiny partial eclipse approximately 18° behind the nodal axis. This eclipse will occur on the opposite Pole to where the Series started. If the Saros Series was born, or commenced, with a tiny partial eclipse at the North Pole, then it will finish some 1300 years later as a tiny partial eclipse on the South Pole.”
Back to my “Saros Series Surfing” analogy. At sea, each spirit starts at the North or South Pole, waiting in 18-year increments to “Earth Surf” and make their family proud. Each Saros Series family also has their “heyday” and “mayday” surfing across the earth plane, moving in a P.A.T.H. of Partial, Annular, Total, and Hybrid eclipses. Approximately 1300 years later, they “come half circle” ending up at the same starting degree, only on the opposite planetary pole. What a ride!
According to Brady, at any given time there are approximately 42 Saros Series “surfing.” Half start from the North Pole and the other half from the South Pole. The astrology-friendly system Brady uses lists ALL Saros Series as either North or South and between the numbers 1-19. Series with the same number are also labeled Old or New to make further distinctions.
The astronomy-centered Saros-Inex Panorama numbering system NASA uses to identify Saros Series was developed by Van den Bergh in 1955. This numbering system works better for me from a Cardology perspective as I will explain.
According to Brady’s book, the Solar Eclipse before my birthday on Dec. 10, 1970, was:
Saros Series 8 South: Started April 1, 1718, and Ends April 30, 2962
According to NASA, I hail from:
Saros Series 144: Started April 11, 1736, and Ends May 5, 2980 (starts and ends 18 years later)
The number 144 is very important in Cardology because it represents the Ace of Spades—the ancient symbol representing the Magi Mysteries System! Brady’s book Predictive Astrology doesn’t cover the Lunar Eclipse before birth, but I have found this information to also be useful. The Solar and Lunar eclipses before my birthday are listed in the graph below. We’ll cover more on this next time.
