Needless Sacrifice
Question: “How is sacrifice being used in a negative way by those who still identify with the Piscean energies?”
The basic misuse of sacrifice in this age is as follows:
The ministers, teachers and gurus are constantly demanding money time and energy from their followers and only giving illusion in return. True sacrifice occurs when you give up something on one level to obtain a greater good on another level. Through corrupt sacrifice, you give up something of value to a representative of the Beast and only receive false images in return.
Jesus demanded sacrifice, even unto death, but He offered the reward of real soul contact and the lifting of much negative karma for the disciples.
The authorities of the Beast today want everything from us and give us nothing real in return. Sacrificing everything for nothing is a sin against all that is holy if there ever was one.
The governments of the world do a similar thing. They want more and more taxes and give them away to many illusionary projects and we often receive nothing back in return.
In ancient Israel the whole government was financed on a voluntary ten percent tithe and the money was used for the benefit of all. Wouldn’t it be nice if a voluntary tithe were our only tax today? There is no reason why this cannot be so.
Another false sacrifice demanded by many New Agers is technology. Many of them want us to give up all the benefits of technology and go back to living virtually on the level of the savage. This idea is totally contrary to everything Aquarian and the only way it could succeed is through the destruction of billions of lives on earth. Instead the Aquarian age, which is ruled by air or mind, will bring man in harmony with the environment through technology. Contrary to much New Age thinking, man is put here to improve the earth (after a number of blunders) not to bask in a native wilderness.
In other words, we do not have to sacrifice the comforts of modern society to bring a New Age of peace and rest for the planet.
Our next objective here is to see a vision of the transformation of Pisces into Aquarius so let us go a step farther. There is one main key word for Pisces, which is sacrifice and one for Aquarius, which is service. In addition to these there is a Trinity of key words for each age, one major and two minor. What are they?
Another question: How is service to become manifest in the Aquarian age and why are those who are still concentrating on sacrifice resisting it?
It is interesting that most of the words and descriptions of the Piscean Age are negative, but keep this in mind. The lessons we learn in each age and the keynotes struck are overall a positive thing.
We have talked some about sacrifice and mentioned that it has a positive and negative side. On the positive we give up one thing that is dear to us to receive something else of even higher value.
On the negative side we sacrifice our free will to an authority who takes control of our finances and our lives and get nothing but illusion in return.
Those who make right use of sacrifice will make an easy transition into the service of the New Age, but those who are caught up in the glories of the past and sacrifice the possibilities of current joy to the authorities of the past will only enter the new age kicking and screaming.
The closest guess from readers for a minor key word for Aquarius was organization. This word is very close, but it does not make a distinguishing difference between the energies of the two ages as there was quite a bit of organization created throughout the age of Pisces. The organizations in Aquarius will be different and this difference is beginning to be demonstrated.
What type of organizations are doing more to change the world and take us into the new age than any other?
How is service to become manifest in the Aquarian age and why are those who are still concentrating on sacrifice resisting it?
Again, the major key word for Pisces is Sacrifice. Several guessed one of the minor words, which is idealism. Devotion is not the second minor for Pisces but is a companion word to idealism.
Through illusion and glamour the Beast turns idealism and devotion into a negative thing, but after the appearance of the great Avatar, the Christ, the idealism and sacrifice of the early saints created a point in history that will forever inspire. It was only after the Beast corrupted idealism and sacrifice by taking the place of God that these two energies were used in a negative way. Even so, throughout the Piscean age there have always been a few who have demonstrated the true qualities of these words.
Now let us look at the Key words of Aquarius.
As we said the major key word is service. When some of you have written about this word it almost sounds as if you are talking about sacrifice instead.
Service as it applied to the age of Pisces was usually accompanied by sacrifice and this was always emphasized when teaching of spiritual values, but service in the Age of Aquarius will have a different emphasis.
Since disciples were supposed to have absorbed the lessons of sacrifice during the past 2000+ years, the emphasis will also shift. The emphasis on service will revolve around cause and effect or karma. Instant or more immediate karma becomes the ideal.
In the Piscean age disciples were taught that when they performed a sacrificial service that they would receive a reward of some kind, but to many the payback seemed far away or nebulous and they had to have faith that they would receive a better world in “heaven” or perhaps a future incarnation.
The eternal law is this. You cannot give or receive without eventually giving or receiving in return. Even if you do a small service like helping someone change a tire you receive a small credit and the time will come that some stranger will perform a small service for you.
Now some of you may have noticed that during the past 100 years and especially the past twenty, the law of cause and effect seems to be accelerating. That is people seem to get what is coming to them at a faster rate of return than was earlier the case. This is because of the power of incoming Aquarian energies.
Thus the new emphasis on service is not in the sacrifice direction where we do good deeds and get paid back in some far away future, but on the idea is that we serve and in just a short time we receive a recompense for our service.
Have you noticed that it is becoming common place that those who serve others with sacrifice are often taken advantage of to the extent that some almost loose their faith in God? Just the other day I read about a guy who picked up a hitchhiker and the guy stabbed him about thirty times.
People sacrifice and give to churches and most of the money goes to salaries rather than spiritual work.
Others give to a charity only to discover that 99% goes to useless administrators.
Others help the down and out over and over only to have these people become a leech on their lives with no intention of becoming self-reliant.
My point is that the people who were the ideal in the age of Pisces are getting ripped off in Aquarius because they are not adapting to the new energies and these people are on both sides of the aisle, conservative and liberal.
The two minor words for Aquarius solidify the law of cause and effect in relationship to service.
Democracy is such an important aspect of Aquarius that it deserves to be one of the three words, but the essence of it is included in one of the key words. Even though we technically have a republic in the United States this and other nations will evolve toward a more pure democracy where more and more power will be given (or taken) by the people. Hint: What is created in a democracy that insures freedom and justice for all?
The second key word is not what you expect and some will disagree with it until it is explained why this second word is strongly related to Aquarius.
We would not even be talking here on the internet if it was not for the changes created by this word. You also would not have your computer without it.
The second key word for Pisces is love
Why you may ask was not Love the major word? It is true that it is one of the three major aspects of God (Light, Love and Power), but it was not the major emphasis of Pisces. The major word for Pisces was sacrifice and from sacrifice came a greater comprehension of Love.
The second minor key word for Aquarius has not yet been stated. Science and technology will definitely be a strong influence. Even greater will be the seeking after peace and spirituality.
Thus we have the trinity of words for Pisces: Sacrifice, Love & Idealism
Next we will explore the trinity of key words for Aquarius.
