Unless you’re pushing uphill and struggling to achieve your life has absolutely no meaning.
Your soul on its evolutionary journey in response to harsh and dangerous environmental conditions acquires discordant states of consciousness.
These discordant thought-compounds in your not-conscious soul-mind work to attract unfortunate events that replicate how they feel. They’re mapped by the discordant aspects in your birth chart and their level of discord measures the degree of difficulty, harm and distress they can do.
When you feel friction, agitation, frustration and split-conflict thinking something unpleasant is taking place. You’re responding to environmental circumstance with feelings of pain and discomfort.
A square aspect maps a thought-compound that’s embedded with discordant feeling energy that works to attract an obstacle. Your desire to do something is blocked. If you can’t overcome the obstacle your objective can’t be obtained and you feel frustration.
An opposition aspect maps a thought-compound that’s embedded with discordant feeling energy that works to attract a separation. Two powerful desires are moving in opposite directions resulting in split thinking. A decision has to be made and to gain one thing the other is lost.
Feelings of pain initiate action and movement
Discord plays an important role in your soul’s education and development.
Discordant birth chart aspects prevent stagnation and inertia. They map thought-compounds embedded with painful feelings of friction, agitation, frustration and conflict which get you moving.
Nature aka God is making sure you don’t stagnate and cease developing.
The square and opposition aspects and their corresponding influences are testing forces which, when properly used, enable you to build strength, initiative, resistance, determination and faith.
Instead of permitting peaceful slumber they bring pressures to bear that arouse an inner thought-cell disturbance which, in turn, engenders a desire and determination to do something.
Some distress is usually necessary before you’ll begin to struggle to escape the pain. But if you’re living in a state of harmony, you might be perfectly content to sit still.
This can easily result in inertia. You do nothing, think nothing that might cause disagreement, start nothing and finish nothing. You maintain the status quo. You’re content with the state of your soul’s intelligence and ability development. There’s no personal development.
Pain ensures progress. It makes growth, opportunity, luck and expansion possible.
Character and will power develop when you set life goals and then go ahead and achieve them. You overcome the obstacles that prevent you from accomplishing your objectives and accept and ignore the friction that occurs as a matter of course. You become whatever you choose.
Character and will power only develop when you have strong desires of accomplishment. Without strong desire nothing much is achieved. You can become a non-moving potential doing nothing. Peacefully existing by avoiding all motion. The discordant aspects in your birth chart get you moving.
Once you have set yourself an objective getting there requires a supportive environment and the ability to overcome any agitation, obstacles and conflicts that crop up and interfere with your progress.
Having acquired self-consciousness you feel the discord, and the hardships of your physical life compel your soul to develop reasoning skills.
Objective reasoning is the most effective way to escape discord even though its capacity to see the whole picture is limited. It provides a one-sided perspective that misses the side that can only be apprehended by intuition.
Reason provides an evidence-based logical solution and intuition can touch truth.
Discord is damaging. There’s no harmony: no peace of mind. You should process it quickly and effectively and understand that prolonged discord has adverse mental and physical health consequences.
And don’t consider the damage caused by a discordant Venus or Jupiter as low-level damage just because they’re benefic planets.
Discord has function and purpose. It initiates struggle, gets you moving and ensures personal development. When you successfully overcome discord the consciousness of harmony you feel is letting you know that all is well.
