THE WORLD, it seems, is awash in pedophilia. Rather than get angry or depressed about this, Astrodharma urges us to inquire:
Why would I choose to incarnate at a time when so many in positions of power are getting caught succumbing to this twisted way of touching, tasting and devouring innocence?
The answer comes, paradoxically, as we plumb the lower octave expression of the most virginal sign, Virgo.
Virgo edits, purifies, improves. Why? To create an earthly scene that mirrors God’s heavenly order. Virgo doesn’t just “clean;” it designs spaces in which the details are so well-attended to that it gives the horizontal, form-fixated part of our minds nothing to do, thus redirecting our attention at the Unimprovable. Even Virgo’s internal efforts at purity (diet, health, nutrition), are instinctively tethered to daily regimens that echo the clock-like efficiency of the great wheel of karma spiraling us home.
What happens when Virgo no longer believes there is any divine (Piscean) communion to be jump-started by their consecrated spaces? Simple: they grasp for identity in the role of fault-finder/fixer and satisfy their hunger for soulful communion in the intimacy of shared aversion. They magnify the imperfect, perfectly.
The pedophile employs a similar logic.
The pedophile dilemma
Orgasm- and the feverish, single-pointed state of arousal that precedes it- provides a glimpse of the mind-killing simplicity and silence of who we are. Sex (without love) conjures a spat of timeless presence, then dumps us back into the achingly insufficient, pre-aroused banality that made the lust-ticket so irresistible. The result: increased cynicism and doubled down desire. Next time, however, the sex will need to be more violently arresting (and aberrantly empowering) in order to deliver the desired jolt of faux communion required to release us from the time bound sense of self.
My point is simple: The pedophile (like the mystically vacant Virgo) senses that somewhere in the throes of their unholy intercourse is untapped proof of God. There is something in the child that is not just innocent, but unborn and impossible to taint that makes them existentially irresistible. Yet, the closer the pedophile comes to this innocence, the more angry and frustrated they become since they are unable to access the child’s purity of presence in themselves.
Finally, the contrast becomes intolerable and the innocence of the child is deemed a sickly attractive illusion that must be exposed and broken free of- not just through defilement, but death. When performed as a group ritual, one could imagine that satanic pedophiles experience something akin to what lower-ocatave Virgo does when it gives up on soulful communion and settles for “the intimacy of shared aversion.”
Back, now, to our question:
Why would I choose to incarnate at a time when so many in positions of power are getting caught succumbing to this twisted way of touching, tasting and devouring innocence?
To indelibly impress upon ourselves that there is nothing more powerful or irresistible than the pristine presence of God in man. Innocence rules the world and going numb to its presence can, and will, turn us into monsters.
The real question is:
Do we have the meditative guts needed to confess that all minds are asymptomatic pedophiles, desperate for intercourse with- not just the innocent- but the Unborn?
