in these couple of questions, Ra explains a bit about biorhythms, and how they affect our experience.
it starts here:
and that last paragraph speaks of astrological influences.

my question is specifically about this passage, where 'negative or retrograde moments' are mentioned. I am guessing these would be lower points in the cycle (energetically speaking), or in terms of retrograde, where the wind is directly blowing against one, rather than being fully behind one's sails:
if I can quote that paragraph directly, and break it down:
1) "We may say that while these information systems are interesting they are in sway only insofar as the entity or entities involved have not made totally efficient use of catalyst"
so again, a perfectly balanced entity (one that makes efficient use of catalyst, moment by moment) is not going to be ruffled by changing biorhythms, or energetic fluxes. They can 'accept it' and see it as part of a larger unfolding, or are able to use the catalyst for what it is, without pushing back against it.
2) "therefore, instead of accepting the, shall we say, negative or retrograde moments or periods without undue notice"
no-one likes being in the low point of a cycle. The amount of 'energy' available is more limited, and it feels like more 'effort' to accomplish the same thing. But if one is readily accepting (of the cycles, and fluxes in experience), this should not be a big deal. It can be 'accepted' without complaint ('undue notice')
3) "have the distortion towards the retaining of these distortions in order to work out the unused catalyst."
this is the part that I am less sure about. What is the 'retaining of the distortions'? Which distortions are being retained? Is that because in the 'negative or retrograde moments' we are exposed to things which question our validity and strength, and instead of being able to use that catalyst, we instead resist it, and try to force a compensation for it? And that is the resistance or the 'retaining' of that distortion?

side note: in the passage above, Ra again re-iterates on two occasions that the group functioned as a unit. Don and Carla are the most visible and identifiable two members of the trio; Jim's place as scribe and battery is more seemingly peripheral, and yet absolutely essential (just like a tripod that cannot stand on two legs; the third is vital).
"It may be noted that the three in this triad bring in this energy pattern which is Ra. Thus each energy input of the triad is of note."
"We may suggest that it is always of some interest to observe the road map, both of the cycles and of the planetary and other cosmic influences, in that one may see certain wide roads or possibilities. However, we remind that this group is an unit."
cheers.
it starts here:
Quote:61.3 Questioner: Can you expand on what you meant by the “cycling instreamings of energy?”
Ra: I am Ra. There are four types of cycles which are those given in the moment of entry into incarnation. There are in addition more cosmic and less regularized inpourings which, from time to time, affect a sensitized mind/body/spirit complex. The four rhythms are, to some extent, known among your peoples and are called biorhythms.
There is a fourth cycle which we may call the cycle of gateway of magic of the adept or of the spirit. This is a cycle which is completed in approximately eighteen of your diurnal cycles.
The cosmic patterns are also a function of the moment of incarnative entrance and have to do with your satellite you call the moon, your planets of this galaxy, the galactic sun, and in some cases the instreamings from the major galactic points of energy flow.

Quote:61.4 Questioner: Would it be helpful to plot the cycles for the instrument and attempt to have these sessions at the most favorable points with respect to the cycle?
Ra: I am Ra. To that specific query we have no response.
It may be noted that the three in this triad bring in this energy pattern which is Ra. Thus each energy input of the triad is of note.
We may say that while these information systems are interesting they are in sway only insofar as the entity or entities involved have not made totally efficient use of catalyst and, therefore, instead of accepting the, shall we say, negative or retrograde moments or periods without undue notice, have the distortion towards the retaining of these distortions in order to work out the unused catalyst.
It is to be noted that psychic attack continues upon this entity although it is only effective at this time in physical distortions towards discomfort.
We may suggest that it is always of some interest to observe the road map, both of the cycles and of the planetary and other cosmic influences, in that one may see certain wide roads or possibilities. However, we remind that this group is an unit.
