Ra’s Words of Wisdom

Ra Uru Hu

I love logic. I love logic because it is the bedrock of what we are as a human being. It is the essence, this 15/5, the Design of a single cell, the essence of life, is a pattern in a flow. This is what life is all about. The thing about logic is when you take in logical truths they resonate very, very deeply in your system, because we are logical systems. And when you reveal to mind the logic of, in fact, what is actually there, consistently there, and the way that it works that mind can take that in, it takes an enormous weight off their shoulders because it brings them confidence in areas where they never had confidence before.

If you look at your own Design and you look at the Design aspects of it, what you’re looking at, if you go back to your first Saturn half cycle, the first 14 or 15 years, all of those places of uncertainty and insecurity had nothing to do with your openness, but had everything to do with your unconscious. I’m a 43/23. I have a purely unconscious mind. All the aspects of my mind are unconscious. There is no Personality up there; none whatsoever, from the Throat up all unconscious. I never trusted my mind.

I can remember as a kid being told—because I was doing very, very poorly in school, I wasn’t there very much. My parents found out and they had me tested. I had this extraordinary IQ. They were telling me how smart I was and I had no idea. Truly, I had no idea. I had no access to my mind. I had no access to depth. I have the 48th gate unconscious, and no way of knowing.

It was always a point of uncertainty for me because there was no way of knowing that it was there, no way of knowing that the intelligence was there, no way of measuring it, no way of working with it. All I could do was watch what came out. It wasn’t until I went through my own process and began to look at my own Design that this weight was taken away. You get the benefit of that. I open up any of these classes that I teach at any time and I have no idea, none whatsoever what I’m going to say. It’s all unconscious.

But I’m no longer insecure with the nature of what it is to be me. This is part of my hardwiring. This is simply the way that it works. The moment I can relax and sit back and say, don’t worry because it isn’t going to do any good, don’t try to figure it out because you can’t. Don’t be concerned, just watch the movie, see what comes out and that’s it, because that’s who you are, this is how it comes out. This is the magic with coming to grips with your own Design, beginning to see these areas not in a sense of anything other than, ok, I can now let go and trust this function.
