The Venus Sequence
  - The Great New Age shake up – Part 1

‘Only a woman has more influence over a man than power’

Waking up from awakening

 

Our world is fast approaching a crossroads. Times such as these require honesty and courage, which is why I have decided to write this series of articles aimed directly at all my current readers. Whilst I know many of you, there are many more who read my work that I have never met, which is always a strange phenomenon for someone like me, because in truth I am the kind of man who likes to look people in the eye and shake their hand. Writing like this and firing my words off into the void is an unnerving experience at times. You never really know who is reading your words or what effect, if any, they are having.

So much has changed in the last 10 years. On the surface, the world does not seem to have changed that much – we still seem to be blindly heading for the same global precipice. But think about yourself 10 years ago. Consider how naïve you were about certain things back then. Consider what a deep transformation you have gone through since then. Because you are reading my material right now, I know something about you, even though you may not know how I know it.

 
 
I know that some deep part of you is beginning to get tired – perhaps you are tired of trying to understand the world, perhaps you are tired of trying to understand yourself – but above all, I suspect I know why you are really tired – you are tired because you hold a dream deep inside your heart and after all this time, it still hasn’t quite happened.

I know this because I can feel it in the collective energy field. This tiredness hits us every time we hear the world headlines. It’s there on almost every TV channel. It follows us into our relationships, it dogs us when we sit down and wade through the mountain of paperwork that floods us in our modern world. At its height, the tiredness becomes exasperation – it asks questions like ‘why can’t these politicians just wake up and start saving the world?’ ‘How can the most advanced nation on the planet elect a leader like George Bush?’ – ‘How can these things keep happening?’

For years now, you and I have sought to better ourselves and live a life of purpose. We have each awoken from our sleep, we have smashed our conditioning to smithereens, processed the pain we felt as children, held hands with the great sages and been through what can only be described as an epic journey of transformation from ignorance to awareness. We have won through. If we haven’t already celebrated, then we should. We each have to see that we have won through. The reason we have to see this now is that the world needs us now. The world doesn’t need people who are awakening. It needs people who are awake. The world doesn’t need people who are learning what it means to lead. The world needs leaders. The world doesn’t need us to transform ourselves any more. It needs us to transform it.

Many of you know a little of my own journey. Since I have this infuriating habit of writing everything down, much of my own process of transformation is fairly well documented. And each of us has our own story to tell – our own fascinating little mystical play. So my question to all of us, myself included is: isn’t it time we woke up from our awakening? Out there in the world, there are things that really need changing. Most of us learned along the mystical path that it isn’t the outer world that needs saving – it’s the inner ‘I’ that needs to awaken – and so we have tended to focus more on our inner being rather than the outer world or ‘maya’ as it has come to be known.

The Yin and the power of Money

But now things seem to be changing again. We are at another of those cosmic turning points. We need to end the spiritual self-obsession now. There is a time for meditation and there is a time for action – we need both right now. There is a powerful new stream of energy entering the world – through my work, it has taken the form of the Venus Sequence, but others give it other names. It seems to emanate from a source that we call Feminine or Yin. All along the cutting edge of consciousness this energy stream is being aroused – I am just one of many in whom it speaks. Many spiritual teachers and leaders are coming out of deep retreat to answer the call – it is an immensely exciting time.
