In Cayce's cosmology the human body is like
a radio receiver and transmitter that is capable
of receiving and sending information via subtle
energies.
This is the basis for how planetary sojourns
(and astrology in general) influences our
consciousness -- we resonate to the planets
and stars.
Whether the vibration we pick up is a positive
or negative influence depends upon how we
used our will in those realms.
Of course, we have the choice to ignore the
signal just as we would a radio station that
we find boring.
To carry our analogy a step further, imagine
that our ability to perceive the subtle vibrations
associated with planets and stars is like
a radio in an automobile that is traveling
through mountains.
The signal is sometimes stronger or weaker
(or entirely undetectable) depending where
we are located in relation to the terrain
and the signal.
Likewise, as we travel through the universe,
riding on the surface of this planet, our
bodies are more or less able to resonate to
the vibration of heavenly bodies depending
upon our relative position.
Let me share a personal experience that is
analogous to Cayce's model of astrological
influences.
Several years ago I had a pleasant trip to
Costa Rica where I gave a serious of lectures.
Each morning I walked in the neighborhood
where I was staying and enjoyed the architecture
which included an impressive new government
building.
Several months after my trip I walked past
a television set that carried a news story
about the government building in Costa Rica.
Hostages had been taken and were being held
in the building by men seeking the release
of prisoners.
As I watched the program, thoughts and feelings
washed over me.
Memories of the people I had met came into
my mind and I wondered if anyone that I had
met during my trip had gotten involved in
the crisis.
The mental and emotional responses that I
had while viewing the TV were based on my
past experiences.
Without that trip and the experiences I had
while in Costa Rica I may have walked on past
the TV without noticing the story.
I resonated to that situation because I had
been there.
So it is with astrological influences.
We resonate to the universe based on how we
have used our will in the various realms where
we have sojourned.
