What's the real reason I perform the LBRP?
-
I've been doing it pretty much solidly for the last 2-aught months, with some unexpected "results"; which has been being able to conjure up the willpower to get up and do things that I don't really want to do, but will benefit me in the long run (hopefully!)
It has changed my view of the word "Will", so it carries far more impact for me. When I say "I will do this", then it becomes something of an obligation to myself.
Otherwise, there hasn't been any illuminating moment of success after the completion of the ritual so far. It seems the act of simply making myself keep such a routine has strengthened my drive to get necessary things done. However, I'm not sure exactly why I do it or what I'm looking to get out of it, besides these little perks. I initially began the practice, not fully understanding what was to come of it, besides the supposed "equilibrating" effects it has on the psyche.
So, basically, I feel as if I'm doing these things blindly, not actually knowing where it should lead me and why.
Also, it's gotten to a point where if I try to skimp out on performing it (and practicing my Asana,) I cannot feel comfortable at all, and experience an incessant, nagging urge to get up and get it done. This couldn't be the O of the IAO formula, could it? Because I'm not really enjoying it. It feels more like a duty or an important errand. Or maybe a habit. I don't know for sure.
I have read that the planet Venus traces a pentagram across the sky over a certain period. The conjunction cycle. That fascinates me.
Here's a couple of charts of it:

To take things further along this geometric train of thought...
I have often seen the Quabalistic cross as the establishment of an axis ( of the x-y variety).
One then revovles or rotates about this axis to create the infinite boundry of the universe ( a circle).
Before 'finally' establishing four corners of a square demarking terrestrial boundries of a sort.
There is also the idea of formulating a cube, but that one is still suffering from light pollution.

"The pentagram is a perfect geometrical expression of the Golden Ratio. The Golden Ratiois an ancient proportion - a relationship of numbers - in which the ratio of the lesser number to the greater number is the came as the ratio of the greater number to their sum: a/b = b/(a+b)."
First of all, thank you for such a wealth of information. I've never seen the pentagram portrayed in this light.
Secondly, does the Golden Ratio have any bearing on celestial matters, i.e. the positions of the planets, or their rate of orbit?

I can't offhand think of an example where it does. For example, ellipses come in all varieties of eccentricity, and approximate patterns like Bode's "law" don't fall in that ratio.

There seems to be some (possibly coincidental) match between the ratios of the orbital distances, and revolution periods of the planets. And a few other things.
Certainly it's present in nature. See Adolf Zeising as an example:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Zeising
He talked about the golden ratio as being based on the chemical structure of the underlying elements. (Which would in turn be based up the orbital fields of electrons of the underlying atoms)... talk about as above, so below...

That's very cool. (Especially Saturn's rings, which I should have known from looking at them all of these years.)

Thank you very much for that explanation Jim, much food for thought!

Excellent! That's exactly what I was looking for. Amazing that the planetary distances correspond almost exactly to Phi.
