Numbers and Avatar

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

Previously I wrote about the synchronicity of the release of the movie Avatar with the release of B107 - Aura-Soma’s most recent bottle. Recently I saw Avatar for the second time and once again I found some very exciting Aura-Soma connections. This time through the numbers that appear in the movie.

When Jake Sully - the lead character - records his video diaries there are two significant numbers that appear on the screen. One is his ID number and the other is the date. When these numbers are associated with their corresponding Aura-Soma Equilibrium bottles some amazing coincidences of message and meaning can be found.

Jake’s ID number

It is 0256 **** 0004. (**** - there were some letters in the middle i ignored).

We can interpret these numbers as follows:
02 = B2 is the blue/blue combination, and blue represents a yes to something
56 = B56 is the pale violet/pale violet combination, and pale violet represents transmutation - a deep level of change.

00 = B0 royal blue / deep magenta, 0 represents mystery and the potential for the new. In the Tarot this is the Fool, the one at the start of the journey. To return to zero is in fact the only way to make a new beginning.
04 = B4 the yellow / gold combination. These are the colours that underpin our separate self consciousness. It is on this separateness that our sense of identity is built.

Yes to change

Taken together his ID number, seen through Aura-Soma bottles, could be read as “yes (02) to change (56) … returning to zero (0) a new identity (4) can emerge.

This is exactly the process Jake Sully goes through in the movie. He starts as a human in an alien body, yet by the end of the film his inner identity has also chnaged - he now considers himself Navi. He has changed not only his form abut also his identity!

2154 - the context of time

The other significant number appearing in Jake’s video diary is the date. Avatar is set in the year 2154. Here we should also consider the Aura-Soma / Tarot perspective.

21 = is the green / pink combination, but perhaps more importantly here it is the path of The World in the Tarot, it represents consciousness entering or awakening in matter. When i think about the Navi’s relationship with their world - one of conscious interaction where they talk to the planet and vice versa this makes sense. Furthermore
54 = is clear / clear, and from the Tarot perspective, it is the Page of Swords. The Pages are situated in Malkuth - the sphere of inanimate matter which is connected to consciousness through the path of The World. The clear / clear combination is paradoxical in Aura-Soma. It represents both consciousness and unconsciousness. Taken together 2154 concerns itself with bringing an impulse of consciousness into the material world.

One of the main messages of the movie is to change our consciousness with regard to the planet we live on. In the movie the humans are in the Navi world for mining. I have long thought that mining is a telling word. To mine is to extract from the earth and so take possession of - “Its mine now.” At another level of course the Earth could regard humans in the same way - that we belong to her since our body is made entirely out of her elements. What belongs to who is hard to say!

A final note - 08.24.2154

The date of the final video diary entry was 08 24 2154
that is (if i change around to english way of writing) -

24 - violet turquoise - the bottle’s name is New Message
08 - yellow / blue represents a return to balance (the Tarot card is Justice). The question B8 poses is
“Are you living in harmony with your heart? With life around you?”
This is the question that the movie leaves us with. Remember it was released the same week as the Copenhagen Climate Conference reached its climax!

To summarise:

Jake’s ID number shows Jake Sully’s process - a transformation of not only form but also identity. The date shows the bigger story in which his process is set. It is a message to find a new balance and harmony with nature, a new beginning for our conscious relationship with the material world.

Surprise

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

One of the abilities I encourage in consultation skills is that of accepting whatever the client says without judgement or excessive reaction. I like the flow of information to be smooth. Recently though my surprise just had to show through.

I was giving an example consultation to a student. In fact she had already surprised me the previous day when she told me the reason she was a little late for class was that she had taken sunday lunch over to her mother before coming to class. She told me her mother was 97 years old. I could hardly believe it - i would never have said this student was old enough to have a 97 year old mother … (but of course i was too much of a gentleman to ask …)

During the consultation she spoke about wanting to inspire her daughter to be more free. “What does she do? Whats her situation?” I asked. “Oh she still lives at home with me” she replied. “She is 16 years old.” I couldn’t believe my ears! Yesterday a 97 year old mother and now a 16 year old daughter! For once my jaw dropped.

I wrote these words recently as i was waiting to have my hair cut in Budapest. I speak no hungarian and my hair dresser no english. I showed her approximately what i wanted. Imagine my surprise when she got the shaver and immediately shaved the front of my head! I had to laugh when she asked me if i liked it. Whatever i felt made no difference. I let her continue. The good news with haircuts though is, even if i don’t like them, they always seem to grow on me!

Deep Magenta

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

I heard of a consultation recently where the client, who had chosen 3 Rescue (Deep Magenta) bottles, was told by the Practitioner “You have a hard life.” My friend wanted to know if there was another way, more positive way to understand Deep Magenta.

I told her Deep Magenta is different from all other colours, it does not represent a part of the spectrum of light (as do the other colours) it represents the whole of it. Deep Magenta is the fullness of energy from which the light (and therefore all colours) emerge. When any colour is brought in contact with Deep Magenta, as in a Rescue bottle, that colour is brought back into connection with its source. It is like that colour comes home to receive caring and love. The deep magenta restores the power of that colour.

A good analogy is sleep. I think deep magenta is like sleep. We all need it. There is no shame in it. And in sleep, at a certain point, we disappear. There is no dreaming, no self, no consciousness, just Nothing. Sleep is like going back to zero. And, in that Nothing, I believe our consciousness is reunited with the Source. So in the morning we may wake up refreshed, feeling better, ready for another day. Sleep is just like the Rescue, the Deep Magenta.

So when Rescue bottles appear in a choice it can be a very positive thing. It expresses the bringing of part of our life back to the source to be re- nourished, re-energised, restored. And whatever Rescue bottle is chosen, it will be the top fraction that gives the clue as to what is being restored. But that is another article …

Time

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

There is a big question in physics. “Why does time seem to flow in one direction only?” From a mathematical point of view it should equally be able to flow from future to past.

A simple answer?

I have been considering this question through this autumn and there seems such a simple explanation. Time flows forward because the universe is expanding. Einstein showed that space and time are two parts of entirely one whole. Thus if the universe expands only outwards from the Big Bang, then time too must flow in the direction of expansion.

In the flow

I guess i can’t be right - but through this process there have been several moments when i felt as if I were flowing with time, like a surfer riding a wave, a wave in time. Even when I stood still, I sensed I was in this movement, a movement that had no past and no future, but is always just now.

Space gets in the way

I realised the distraction is space. The fact that I am able to choose to move in three dimensions: forwards and back, left and right, up and down, makes it seem that when I choose not to move in any direction then I must be in stillness. But this is not so. Even when I do not move in space still I am flowing in time. Space and time are two parts of one whole, like complementary colours, to have a position in space i must also have a position in time. And even if i do not move in space still time flows. And this wave of now i can never leave. Time is to life on earth as water is to the fish. Being in time we do not see it. But it is the movement we never leave our whole life long.

The future

There is much more … but that is for a later NOW.
