Mars in Pisces pray for Compassion
20 Nov 2018, 04:36 am
While Mars is in Pisces November 15- December 31
This almost 7-week transit brings a very big opportunity for compassion for ourselves and others,
“Compassion asks us to go where it hurts, to enter into the places of pain, to share in brokenness, fear, confusion, and anguish. Compassion challenges us to cry out with those in misery, to mourn with those who are lonely, to weep with those in tears. Compassion requires us to be weak with the weak, vulnerable with the vulnerable, and powerless with the powerless. Compassion means full immersion in the condition of being human. ~Henri J.M. Nouwen
“Idiot compassion”
Tibetan Buddhist teacher Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, Pema Chodron and my own root guru Namgyal Rinpoche https://www.namgyal.ca/ talked about this. Idiot compassion “refers to something we all do a lot of and call it compassion. In some ways, it’s what’s called enabling. It’s the general tendency to give people what they want because you can’t bear to see them suffering.” Chodron exposes the danger in this: instead of offering a friend medicine, bitter though it may be when ingested, you feed them more poison.” –https://bigthink.com/21st-century-spirituality/idiot-compassion-and-mindfulnesscompassion”
Also while Mars is in Pisces it will bring rain to help stop the fires, But that brings with it the possibility of mudslides.
We must be compassionate with ourselves.
