Aries: Taking Action
Written by Misty-Eve
Tuesday, 14 April 2009
The influence of Aries is all about Action, Doing, and Getting Started, and Aries people are wonderful to observe as they go about taking steps to begin.
Your work is to go forth into this physical environment looking for things that are a vibrational match to joy, connecting to Source Energy, and then following with the inspired action.
~ Abraham-Hicks
If our work is to take our attention off of what is NOT working, and dream about what wed rather have instead, then when do we take action?
Knowing what you want is of primary importance. Planning and dreaming about what youd rather have is an important first step, for this sets the vibrational tone of all that is attracted into your life.
Our thoughts influence the outcome of our life: "How often do we hear it said of some man, "Everything he undertakes succeeds," or "Everything he touches turns to gold?" Why? Because the man is constantly picturing to himself the success of his undertakings, and he is backing up his vision by his efforts. By clinging to his vision, by vigorous resolution and persistent, determined endeavor he is continually making himself a powerful magnet to draw his own to him.
~ James Lane Allen (1849-1925) author of "As A Man Thinketh"
After you have taken sufficient time to set the correct frequency, then its time to wait to see what comes into your experience. This is the most exciting part of spell-work. Its the time to be alert and watchful.
Theres really nothing that needs to be done to make magic happen, because the mere idea of making it happen involves some form of tension, and tension stops the flow of Source Energy.
If we trust that the Universe is bringing us a match to the frequency of our thoughts and intentions, then this is the time to keep the channel open and keep that Source Energy flowing - how? - by looking for things that are a vibrational match to joy counting your blessings, or looking for positive aspects to focus upon whatever thoughts keep your energy up to speed with the Source Energy that you are asking to flow through you.
This is the difficult part, especially for the - "Do or die!" - Aries personality, but it is an influence we all feel during this month. We want to DO IT NOW and get it done. This Mars energy can be use more effectively if we, first, mentally focus on what is wanted. Mars energy is eager, and exciting and this is exactly how we should be feeling as we anticipate what will be coming into our experience... eagerly, but patiently, waiting expectantly. I always feel it's a little like waiting for Christmas to arrive!
Magic is a funny thing. After the mental work is done, nothing else needs to be done to make it happen, The Law of Attraction has been set in motion, and the object of the attention is on its way.
So when is Action taken?
When the thing you want comes into your experience, or an avenue opens, or a way to make it happen is offered to you, then youll know - through the inspiration you receive - that its the right time to take action. Many times all youll need to do is reach out to accept the wanted thing and say thank you.
"DO IT NOW," says Mars, and be happy doing it.
Can YOU dream about what you want, and be happy at the same time?
Its worth thinking about

WHEN TO TAKE ACTION
~ Abraham-Hicks
You knew before you came forth into these bodies, that you are creators. And you know that what a creator is, is one who focuses the energy that creates worlds. You knew that your personality, or your focal point, would be your point of attraction. And you knew that in this vibrating universe that you would stand as this perceiver or focuser or point of vibration, and by the powerful law of attraction, that which is like unto the vibration that you are achieving at any moment, would be drawn to you. That is how the focus occurs. Since everything is about law of attraction, when a point of the universe vibrates, and by law of attraction, attracts, that is how creation occurs, you see.
Remember, you are an extension of Source Energy and, when you are allowing your full connection to your Source, you feel good. And, to the degree that you dis-allow your connection, you feel less good. You are pure, positive Energy. You are love! You expect good things. You respect and love yourself. You respect and love others - and, you are a natural born appreciator.
If you will look upon this time as a refreshing new beginning whereby you will utilize your creative ability, you will find yourself filled with excited anticipatory emotion rather than an emotion of dread or fear. We encourage you to begin envisioning your life experience as you would like it to be, and we encourage to be sensitive to the way that you feel as you set these thoughts into motion seeking always that positive emotion that indicates deliberate and positive creation. The Law of Attraction will assist you, for as you think of that which you desire, other thoughts will be attracted until you have completed the picture. And since your actions always follow the path of your dominant intentions, you will find yourself very busily readying yourself for the exciting time that is before you.
Actions to be taken and money to be exchanged are by-products of your focus on joy. On your deliberately joyous journey your actions will be inspired, your resources will be abundant and you will know by the way you feel that you are fulfilling your reason for life. (Most have this one backwards, therefore most feel little joy in their actions or their possessions.)

INITIATIVE: QUOTES OF THE DAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Spiritual growth is not made in reaction against, for all striving against imposed restrictions is imaginary. Spiritual growth is accomplished by inclination toward. We grow like the sunflower, following the light."
~ Joy Houghton
The platform from which you act - faith or fear - determines your results more than the actions themselves.
~ Alan Cohen
In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.
The worst thing you can do is nothing.
~ Theodore Roosevelt
We have much more power than we think -- taking initiative is how to harness that power and reap its rewards.
~ From Taking the Initiative at Work
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BEING VS. DOING:
How Much Effort Do You Need To Give?
"Often people attempt to live their lives backwards: they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you love to do, in order to have what you want."
~ Margaret Young
"The formula for success is first Be, then Do, then Have. If our material abundance reflects the quality of our BEING, then how much do we focus on our DOING?
As with everything in life, it's a matter of balance. Feeling abundant on its own will not meet our needs. As James Allen said, "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."
I have found there's a very different quality to my action when it springs from my sense of abundance as opposed to poverty consciousness. When I sense I don't have enough, I feel driven to be better and to have more. Whatever I do takes effort which I hope will bring me satisfaction in the future. (It doesn't, of course. Satisfaction can only be experienced in the present.) When I'm feeling abundant right now, I act out of my own inspiration to serve and to become more. And this action at times feels almost effortless.
"How do we keep our inner fire alive? Two things, at minimum, are needed: an ability to appreciate the positives in our life and a commitment to action. Every day, it's important to ask and answer these questions: What's good in my life? and then, What needs to be done?"

THE RULER OF ARIES: MARS, THE PLANET OF ACTION
Mars, with his penchant for action and for doing, is what gives Aries people all their will power. The command of Mars is, "Do It Now!" He tells us that if you want to be happy, you need to get happy now. Those who are Aware know that all Real Life exists only in the present. This is to say that Life is right now, and DOING IT NOW is the happy way to live. You may have been happy before but that moment is gone. You can't be happy in the future, for the future is not here yet. The only time to be happy is the only time in which you can possibly be -- NOW. Make up your mind to simply "DO IT NOW" and be happy doing it. Then Mars will smile upon you, and you will have gotten His message.

1st Decan Influence: "INITIATIVE"
March 20 March 29
Without initiative, nothing begins. Initiative is the ability to start, to begin - and then to push it through. In Magic, an initiation is necessary for success in achieving the goals we set. INITIATIVE demands ACTION. Let us say to ourselves, as Aries begins, "Let us start". We then need to keep the initiative going. See every action through to its conclusion on anything you begin.
