Yes, you will get a basic explanation of Astrology for this "MLC" (mid-life crisis) article, as well as the opinions of the psychological community.
We need to be mature enough to let go of our restlessness, confusion, and state of "is this all there is?" in order to reach a higher level of acceptance. It seems that by being stubborn, we are making it harder for us to get to the next exciting part of our story. BOB D.
(Boulevard Of Broken Dreams).
With maturity, experience, and, hopefully, wisdom and discernment, we can get back to our old dreams and wants by using the challenges of the "MLC" (38-45 years of age) to learn something good rather than choosing painfully "uncomfortable yet comfortable" challenges.
From an astronomical point of view, our planets that move more slowly are:
Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and now Chiron, which is pronounced "Ky-ron" and is also called "the Wounded Healer." Scientists are still not sure if Chiron is a planet or an asteroid.
People think that the energy of these slower-moving planets affects not only the consciousness of each person, but also the consciousness of the whole earth as a whole. As these planets move along their paths, they affect us and each other as a WHOLE. A ONE.
Some important things happen between the ages of 38 and 45. (astrology jargon - meaning energy forces affecting an individuals map of birth where the slower moving planets mentioned were situated). In other words, there are some big opportunities and challenges that force you to grow up in areas of your life where you might not be ready yet. You can't deny the effects of these planets on your birth chart, even if they don't show up for years.
That's when it starts to feel bad. Up until now, some of us have been living a life that, in a way, was not real. This was taught to us by our environment and all of the ways it was set up. Now we have the chance to really get a helping hand from these planets, no matter how slow or painful our resistance to our inner truth, potential, and purpose on this planet may be.
Psychology will tell you that this age group, called "MLC," is painful and will give you medicine for anxiety and depression because they know this to be true. (It can make some of the stress and confusion go away.) When a person has lived a life as "almost another person," there is real shock and stress after giving birth. People are asking themselves, "Who am I if I'm not who I thought I was, and what am I going to do about it?" "Where can I find myself?" When a marriage is abusive, you have to ask "how did they get there?" "MLC" is a powerful time in our lives that helps us plan for the future. CHIRON, also known as the "Wounded Healer," will offer you whole-person healing at age 50 and a future based on what you want.
Mistakes may have been made along the way, but now we have the chance to understand and unlearn the addictions that have been hardwired into our subconscious, rewiring our reactive brain channels that haven't helped us or any of our brothers and sisters.
Choices can be made that are real!
"WE ARE ALL ONE"
