The Great Attractor 2. NorthPoint Astrology Journal Your guide to planetary energies ​November 29 to December 5, 2021 By Pam Younghans

http://www.northpointastrology.com/northpoint-journal.html ***** OUR MILKY WAY GALAXY is hurtling through space at the incredible speed of 600 kilometers (373 miles) per second. Along with other galaxies in our sector of the universe, we are being inexorably drawn in the direction of a mysterious galactic anomaly called the Great Attractor (GA). Scientists cannot tell us exactly what the GA is, partly because it is behind the "Zone of Avoidance," an area of space where is so much gas and dust that we cannot see through it. But they do know that the GA has an enormous gravitational field, which apparently is able to bend light and warp time and space. As perceived from Earth, the GA is located at about 14° Sagittarius. This Friday's Total Solar Eclipse, which occurs at 12°21´ Sagittarius, will in some ways channel the GA's enigmatic energies. AS WE ENTER the portal opened by this week's Total Solar Eclipse, the unfolding of events greatly accelerates, reflecting the incredible speed at which we are being drawn toward the Great Attractor. This quickening will continue at least through the rest of eclipse season, which culminates at the New Moon on January 2. Since the GA also seems to be able to warp time and space, we can think of this Solar Eclipse as being a catalyst for significant shifts that seem to catapult us to a new point that is much farther down the timeline. By the time we complete this eclipse season, we may feel like we are in a much different reality than the one we're currently moving through. BASED ON WHAT WE KNOW about the Great Attractor, that new and different reality will be defined by a heightened state of consciousness. This may or may not be comfortable, depending on our ability to be openminded and our willingness to see all perspectives as valuable. Astrologer Philip Sedgwick, a respected expert on galactic anomalies and their esoteric meanings, writes: "A narrow view or opinionated nature does not fit with the Great Attractor. The GA insists that multiple points be understood in all the available far-reaching realms of energy emanation. The Great Attractor reminds us all that knowledge must evolve in order for us to be aligned in any moment with full consciousness." ***** http://www.northpointastrology.com/northpoint-journal.html
