Astrology: The Science of Mind
Psychic & Spiritual Healing

My most recent magazine-published article. It was written at the invitation of Robyn Walker ('Conversations With Robyn', Channel 31; and now Foxtel Aurora channel 183, Australia), following my guest appearance on her program in June 2006. Robyn was the Guest Editor for the Australian 'Insight Magazine' for the April 2008 edition.
My article describes the effects and opportunities we had experienced from Pluto's previous 12-year transit of Sagittarius, in contrast to the new 16-era of Pluto in Capricorn (plus its Cancer polarity), and especially the economic changes it would (and did!) bring to the world in 2008.
The publication of 'Cult Or Consciousness' for another magazine was delayed in 2007 due the article's originally generous content, and my changes in circumstances which left me little time for a rewrite. I was glad to have had the article on the backburner when Robyn called!
With thanks to the team (especially Birri & Sophia) from 'Insight Magazine' for providing the wonderfully clear pdf file (1.31Mb version above) of the published article including the graphic (used here with permission) that accompanied it in print.
This article was originally written at the invitation of the now late Ray Webb (1928-2008) for his Astrological Monthly Review magazine, to assist me with the emergence from my cocoon of writing in the Southern Highlands of NSW Australia, and Canberra. Ray had suggested I write something on my forthcoming book.
Ray Webb was always interested in promoting local Australian astrologers of all
persuasions, and dedicated a large portion of his life to the promotion of astrology generally. His long-standing magazine, spanning decades, was essentially a one-man-show.
In putting this article together, I had reworked excerpts from the Introduction of my forthcoming book Astrology and the Seventh Veil: The Science of Mind and the Bodhisattva Path to Compassion and Liberation.
This article had been previously published twice, (reappearing at the request of the original publisher) in 1992 and in a slightly revised version in 1995, by Southern Crossings Magazine (now out of production) in Australia. The pdf web copy on this site has only minor alterations to its original publications, to keep the language fresh and up to date. As this was one of my first published works, it is a little clumsy in parts! But was well accepted at the time.
'Psychic & Spiritual Healing' was originally written due to a need to assist others to distinguish between these two types of healing and their consequences, as in the mid-80s to early 90s there were some individuals who were not being correctly attuned to Reiki energy, and who were consequently presenting to me with disturbing symptoms of accelerated kundalini in their meridians and hence nervous systems.
Only one Reiki teacher was responsible for this at the time, and as I could not mention the teacher's name, and was not willing to broadcast any disparaging remarks regarding Reiki Healing (which is a beautiful and powerful system), I was hoping to draw out other sufferers in order to steer them toward a particular Reiki teacher who was indeed busy re-attuning such cases.
There is one system in Buddhist Tantra that does utilise the kundalini energy rather than the usual Crown and Heart emphasis - this is known as Tummo, and should only be practised under the strict guidance of an experienced Buddhist Lama, or other such qualified teacher from a direct Buddhist lineage. For more information on Reiki and its origins, see my Reiki pages.
