Equilibrium Bottle #123 Rhea - Lemon Yellow / Royal Blue

7th Dec 2024

Equilibrium Bottle #123 Rhea  - Lemon Yellow / Royal Blue

First Thoughts

Rhea was the daughter of Uranus (the sky) and Gaia (the earth), making her one of the first generation of Titans. In early traditions Rhea was known as 'the Mother of the Gods', her story reflects themes of motherhood, power, and resistance against oppression. The relationship between Rhea and Cronus as husband and wife also holds profound significance in mythology. Cronus, deeply fearful that Rhea's children would surpass him in power among the Titans, swallowed their offspring. However, their youngest son Zeus was saved by Rhea's cunning: she tricked Cronus by giving him a stone wrapped as a child. Zeus lived to fulfil his prophecy by overthrowing his father and becoming King of the Gods.

The Lemon Yellow in the bottle is mercurial, representing rapid thought and clarity of intellect. This stands in contrast to Saturn's slower, deeper, more deliberate energy, which is intrinsic to Rhea's narrative. As one of Saturn's moons, the ice moon, Rhea, has a profound synchronicity with this Equilibrium bottle's numeric representation (with a density of 1.233 grams per cubic centimetre). In Aura-Soma, water symbolises consciousness, and the frozen water on Rhea connects to the concept of "frozen consciousness." This idea harmonizes with the bottle's themes of awakening and transformation, shaking Lemon Yellow with Royal Blue we get Green, a colour deeply tied to Rhea - symbolized by her green eyes and Saturn's associated green energy.

B123 - Rhea

This interplay also reflects the defeat of Cronus by Zeus, leading to the emergence of Rhea's children, like Poseidon and Ceres (or Demeter). The unfolding of this story parallels the bottle's message of birthing a New Earth, representing a significant shift within the Aura-Soma system and our understanding of time. The red in this bottle, found in the Royal Blue, (and 1+2+3=6) introduces the fire element, which distinguishes it from Bottle 47. This fire represents the Earth's core energy and humanity's willpower. Yellow, signifying personal will, contrasts with the higher divine will within the Blue. When humanity's will becomes overly ego-driven, disconnected from the higher will, the fire element within the Earth responds, surfacing through volcanic and seismic activity.

This connection is evident in recent natural events, such as volcanic eruptions in Iceland, signalling a profound shift. These Earth changes reflect the New Earth asserting itself, challenging the misalignment of human will. As the New Aeon dawns, these shifts urge humanity to align with a higher purpose, moving beyond self-centred materialism toward collective transformation. The birth of this bottle encapsulates this dynamic process, reminding us of the balance between human will and divine intention as we navigate this new era, it calls us to do what it is that's asked of us, rather than what it is that we would do of ourselves.

The number 123 is about new beginnings and offers assurance that everything is going to plan, this Equilbrium gifts us the energy for love seen in the 6 (1+2+3=6).

Within Rhea there is a strong association with Equilbrium 8 'Anubis'. The numerology of the 8 has particular significance for Aura-Soma and as with Rhea its colours relate to every other bottle the system. Yellow and Blue are the Primary Primarys ? so we could say every other bottle derives from this combination of yellow and blue. Anubis used feathers to measure the weight of the heart against the departing soul as it transitions to the other worlds. This remembrance of the past as we become reborn and development of the journey of the soul is mirrored in Equilbrium 47 'The Old Soul'.

In 2019 Equilibrium 116 known as 'Queen Mab' began a sequence that is now recognised as the Nature Series. Within this sequence we are always reminded that the spirit in nature is something to be revered, something to be acknowledged and at this time the necessity for it to be resurrected. Many of us are feeling the need to reconnect with nature as we seek knowledge from alternate sources and focus natural wholistic health and deep meaningful relationships from likeminded individuals and communities. Our reality is fundamentally changing, and a new era is emerging. We are entering a time where our emphasis shifts away from questioning our identity and existence, to embracing ourselves whole, free from the need to rely on external beliefs or validations, we are ready to accept that through trusting the star within we have the knowledge and wisdom ourselves. In recent times it is clear that the ready availability of excessive information leads to stress and depression, and we are entering a time where the increased consciousness is enabling us all to regain our joy as we become more unified and interconnected.

This is echoed Astrologically, on Friday, December 6th Venus enters Aquarius, reminding us to be thankful for and celebrate our chosen families, our own personal communities. This allows for a new cycle in relationships to begin, focussing on intellectual connection, seen in the royal blue and freedom as in the lemon yellow. Also, with the new moon in Sagittarius there's a shift to adventure and optimism, again we can see these themes in the lemon yellow and expansive thinking, with the royal blue.
