Cycles don't determine what is going to happen in
your life; they only propel you towards possibilities. Consciousness and
Awareness gives you the choice as to what
can actually happen. You can exert more control over your destiny and life if
you increase your awareness and consciousness.
Again the write-ups are not predicting the future. They describe future possibilities and probabilities, depending on the type and strength of the particular cycle. Furthermore, you always have a choice in the outcome of any situation. For instance, if a write-up for a certain cycle informs you that there is a possibility that your marriage or other close relationship will break up, you should not assume that divorce is inevitable. The write-up is only telling you that this is a time when your marriage will undergo stress; so much stress that if the relationship was barely hanging together before the cycle, it may not be able to withstand this crisis unless superhuman energy is applied. An enduring, healthy relationship however, will make it through the cycle, and perhaps end up even stronger as a result of the testing and cooperative changes made. You have to control your own life to be a Master over your own condition and your own body. You don't want anyone controlling you and you must not control others. When you tune into the energy cycles occurring in your life at any given time, you'll know several things. You'll know when the energy is around, have a good idea as to the type of energy, how it can manifest, and therefore its potential. You will also know what you want and don't want in life, to a greater or lesser degree as the case may be. You may also know in what area of your life this energy is likely to mani fest.
We all have and create our own problems in life. Let us imagine that you are experiencing a difficult Saturn cycle like Saturn Conjunct Sun. Because Saturn restricts and restrains, you will experience frustration, depression, narrowmindedness, corruption and hardship at every turn on the job. You have a choice! You can either get angry, and let your work habits keep slipping, with the end result of having authority fire you, justifiably. Or you can also take the opportunity to increase and practice disciplines of patience, stability, humility, calmness, sacrifice, self-control, purification and reliability while working through the problems of adverse work conditions, during the cycle. Thus, you don't get fired and gain greater honour and respect as an end result. This will give you a better work record, enormously increasing your potential of a better job with a higher income, than if you allow the negative emotions to rule your life. If you do end up getting fired anyway, you will have gained strength and self worth within yourself. You can then walk away knowing that you did your best. If you don't make any mistakes, you won't have any regrets. Pain is unavoidable but suffering is. After all, you can walk away from any situation that you don't like, leaving it totally behind you. But you have to take yourself...where ever you may go.
