The Visionary Astrologer

Michael St.Clair is one of the leading visionaries and futurists of the world. His astrological experience and trend prediction track record is second to none. The book ZEN OF STARS was hailed by some as one of the most advanced pieces of writing in existence today. His ability of seeing the future from the now includes strategic solutions and advice on issues ranging from economy, climate, politics to the creation of safe places in networked micro economies of sustainable living -- all around the world.

J. Krishnamurti - Thought and the thinker are one, but it is thought that creates the thinker, and without thought there is no thinker.

So one has to be aware of the process of conditioning, which is thought; and when there is awareness of that process without choice, when there is no sense of resistance, when there is neither condemnation nor justification of what is observed, then we see that the mind is the centre of conflict.

In understanding the mind and the ways of the mind, the conscious as well as the unconscious, through dreams, through every word, through every process of thought and action, the mind becomes extraordinarily quiet; and that tranquillity of the mind is the beginning of wisdom.

Wisdom cannot be bought, it cannot be learnt; it comes into being only when the mind is quiet, utterly still—not made still by compulsion, coercion, or discipline. Only when the mind is spontaneously silent is it possible to understand that which is beyond time.
