Shooting Star

Positive Qualities: Humanized spirituality, cosmic consciousness warmed with caring for all that is human and earthly

Patterns of Imbalance: Profound feeling of alienation, especially not feeling at home on Earth, nor a part of the human family

Definition: Shooting Star is a very special remedy for those souls who hold back from full participation in earthly life. They may have waited for a long period of time before seeking earthly incarnation, and may have sojourned in other cosmic dimensions which feel more familiar. These souls suffer in a profound way — an affliction which often receives little understanding from family or friends, or even from therapists. Such persons have often been preoccupied, even from childhood, with stories of extra-terrestrial existence, and they may feel that they are actively in touch with such forms of life. It is common for these individuals to have birth trauma or complications, since the soul often hesitates or pulls back at the moment of contraction into matter. Shooting Star helps such persons to find their right connection to earthly life. Rather than feeling merely imprisoned in matter, the soul comes to experience its body as a vehicle for true self-containment and awareness. In this way such individuals come to understand the meaning of love, for love is experienced in a uniquely human way through that which streams freely from the self-aware human heart. At its deepest level, Shooting Star teaches such souls that the Earth is the right place to humanize one's cosmic consciousness, for it is the place to learn about heart-impelled love.
