The Death of the Mask
Periods of personal resurrection
When our lives don’t work the best, & what we have to do is to change them
By Christos Archos
My dear friends a day comes for everyone in our lives that we all need to change ourselves, we feel that we are blocked and that life cannot be fruitful. Some of you may have a deep sadness in your heart. You have the need to rearrange your lives. But something blocks you. At the same time while you want to change yourselves you are afraid of it. You are sad and not happy but still you are afraid of making those changes because you feel that if you do them you will not make your life better and you will be afraid of losing everything you have already had.
Although a weak voice deeply in your heart wants you to change but you don’t. You have already abandoned this voice unfortunately, because of the western system and you have cut the roots with your spiritual self.
Your sense of Will, the power of your heart, is almost dead and tries to whisper to you. But you don’t believe that exists. You face it like a hallucination or of your own mind’s fake wishes and you remain in darkness and sorrow. Almost you are in depression and in abandonment of your own life while at the same time you stay still and frightened. There is a moment in your life that even if you are in denial of this need for change everything falls apart and pushes you to change. Unfortunately because you resist to this change you live a deep traumatic period. This period kills everything you did not like really and you were afraid of destroying it by yourself but because you were not in attunement with your inner will what happens is that you feel even more frightened and frozen.
Pluto is one of the greatest transformational energies someone has if he wants to go a step farther in his life. Our mask on the other hand, the world we built or someone else who built it for us is the Ascendant, it is the way we want others to look at us. When Pluto touches our Ascendant through conjunction, opposition or square this is the time for real change in our life and usually nothing remains the same after this.
This period is called “The Death of the Mask” because it kills everything fake and everything we accepted because “mom said so” or “society says” or because “someone else said”. Our life although it is not our Mom’s, neither of Societies nor everyone else’s, it follows direct orders from people just because we were told so. But life belongs to you and you are going to live it once, not twice or more.
