Hi All,
We have been going through some of the old files for EA and rediscovered this by JWG concerning Natural Laws. So thought we would post this. God Bless, Rad
NATURAL LAWS
To anyone who is interested I would like to offer the following thoughts about what Natural Law is and is not. For anyone to suggest that ALL "˜is man made law' is to suggest that ALL originates from the human being as if the human being is the Origin of the Creation itself. I offer the following for the sake of clarity on this issue, especially for those who are learning or practicing Evolutionary Astrology.
For those who think that there is no such thing as Natural Laws please explain exactly what laws existed before the human manifested on this planet given the fact that many forms of life existed on the planet before the human manifested. What laws are those ? And one of those Natural Laws is the law of evolution itself which preceeded the manifestation of the human being, and of course still exists with the human being on the planet. EVOLUTION IS THE RESULT OF ALL NATURAL LAWS THAT INTERACT WITHIN THEMSELVES, AND IS IN FACT THE CAUSE OF THAT VERY INTERACTION. Evolution can be observed as a NATURAL FACT and exists whether or not the human being belives it or not. Human beings are not the CAUSE OF EVOLUTION NOR THE ORIGIN OF THIS LAW, or any other natural law. Is the human being, or "˜man', the origin of the natural law of gravity for example ? Or the natural law of the trinity: birth, sustainment, death leading to rebirth ? These are observable NATURAL FACTS that exist whether the human exists or not.
What is the basis of the law of evolution ? It is a Natural Law as it applies to a time/ space universe. TheNatural Law of evolution permeates all of the manifested Creation and exists whether the human being is part of that Creation or not: it does not require the human being to validate it. This Natural Law of evolution manifesting in the human being manifests as a dual desire archetype within the Soul: one desire is to separate from That which has created all things including the human being, and one desire is to return to That which has created us, and the rest of the manifefsted Creation. This is a Natural Law that can be validated by all human beings by the fact of their existence on this planet. It does not require a belief or even a philosophical cosmology: it exists of itself and is verified by one's life. The evolution of the Soul then is simply rooted in this Natural Law: the progerssive evolution of Soul thru the progressive elimination of all separating desires leading to the only desire that can remain: to reunite with That which has created not only the human being, but in fact all of Creation itself.
This Natural Law is the very basis and essence of Evolutionary Astrology itself. This Natural Law was set in motion by the Creator Itself as well as a MULTITUDE OF OTHER NATURAL LAWS which, as a whole, are the very basis of the MANIFESTED CREATION IN TOTAL. . Without those Natural Laws, such as gravity for example, the maifested creation could not, or would not, even exist. Most of us would agree that "˜man' is not the origin of gravity: it is not a "˜man made law'. Man is not the origin of fire either for example. Yet "˜man' has the capacity, based on it's evolution, to attune itself, to make itself aware, to the Natural Laws that correlate to being able to make a fire: enough heat applied to something dry will create fire. Man is not the origin of the heat, and is not the origin of whatever is dry enough to receive the heat that will produce the fire. Fire is simply a Natural Law, something intrinsic relative to the totality of the Manifested Creation, that will manifest when certain otherNatural Laws interact in such a way that the Natural Law of fire then manifests. The human being is not the origin of the Natural Law of cause and effect, not the origin of the natural law of breathing, the natural law of metabolism, the natural law that correlates to the survival instinct which exists in all forms of life, and so on and so forth. The point is that there is a overwhelming amount of Natural Laws that exist of themselves as Natural Facts that are the very basis of the totality of the Manifested Creation, and the human being is but one manifestation of those Natural Laws that were set in motion by the Creator whatever we wish to call that Creation Point.
The human being, based on it's evolutionary development, has the capacity to make it's own "˜laws'. But these "˜laws' are laws that can only be applied to the human being and NOT TO THE REST OF CREATION ITSELF. In essence the human has the CHOICE to either attune itself to all of the Natural Laws that apply to the totality of the Creation, or to attune itself to, to invent, "˜laws' that have nothing to do with Natural Laws that apply to the WHOLE OF CREATION.
For example the man made relgious "˜law' that says that men are superior to women. Or the man made "˜law', believed in for so long, that the Earth was flat and the very center of the solar system. And so on.
Evolutionary Astrology is a system of Natural Laws that interact through the Natural Laws of correspondance. The human being has the capacity, as in attuning itself to the Natural Laws that will produce fire, to attune itself to these Natural Laws of correspondence in order to understand the evolutionary journey of each Soul on Earth.
