A Critique of Astrology and Earth Energy on Special Days

Question

Please assess whether the following claim is true or false.

_______________________________

My dear friends, some good news: according to astrology—or the science of the planets, as it’s also called—because the Moon is getting closer to Earth, the Earth’s energy will be multiplied several times over on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

For these three days, we should pray with all our strength and energy, and send positive energy to the universe. Use whichever techniques you feel comfortable with. You could, for example, write letters to the angels or repeat affirmations:

I am powerful.  
I am healthy.  
I am happy.  
I am fortunate, and so on.

Bathe yourself in positive affirmations. Even better if you do it in front of a mirror.

Use creative visualisation. Before bed, picture yourself having achieved what you want. Turn it into a dreamlike movie, and watch that movie every night before bed and each morning when you wake up.

Do some cleansing. Think about what you want, or the problem you’re facing, and keep repeating those four magical phrases:

I’m sorry.  
Please forgive me.  
Thank you.  
I love you.

Take a salt bath to keep all negative energies away from you.

For these three days, put a little more feeling into your techniques than usual. You don’t have to do them all—just do whichever ones you’re comfortable with and that make you feel good.

According to astrology, there may even be turmoil, disruptions, arguments or fights during these three days, at work, at home, or even in society. But you must remain positive and send nothing but positive energy from yourself into the universe, so you can drive the negative energies around you out of your life: despair, fear, envy, lies, gossip, and hurting one another—

in short, anything bad with negative energy is forbidden.

In any case, the power of prayer’s energy will be much, much, much greater than usual during these three days. So make the most of the moon’s light and send love and prayers to yourself, your loved ones and all humanity.

Start right now. Let’s stay mindful for just three days and set aside time to reach our wishes.

Are you ready for the countdown???

I believe that great miracles will happen during these three days. I believe in it completely, with all my heart. We’re all going to have amazing manifestations, and when we announce them, we’ll make everyone tremble.

I’m praying for you and sending you love.

With love,

Before it’s too late, send this to everyone you know.

Accepted Answer

The increase of earthly energy does not intensify a person’s prayer. Human energy increases when one draws closer to the Creator; remembrance of God, with full presence of heart, astonishingly enhances a person’s strength and capacity. Of course, recognising the golden hours that coincide with the celestial and spiritual realms gives prayer and supplication a particular advantage, and one should make the fullest use of such precious opportunities.

Expressions such as “I am powerful; I am healthy; and so on” are not prayers. Rather, they are a form of autosuggestion, an attempt at self-reliance, a kind of self-deception and false imagination, and they will produce no results. Instead, by placing one’s trust in the all-powerful, incomparable Creator and relying on His everlasting power, a person’s strength and capacity are genuinely increased.

Visualising one’s wishes as already fulfilled is a kind of effort to cultivate fantasies and flee from reality. Instead, we should ask the Creator to fulfil our worthy needs and lofty aspirations.

Self-examination, repentance, turning back to God and intimate supplication are among the most beautiful and sweetest acts that a person should practise regularly before sleep.

Earthly energies and the increase of energy on Earth have no connection with the position of the Moon. Solar flares, the position of the stars and other galaxies in relation to Earth, the Moon’s tides throughout the day and night, the Moon’s changing phases from full moon to new moon, the movement of comets and meteoroids, and Earth’s particular position in relation to the Sun, among other factors, affect earthly energy. Yet the special times within the day and night, such as the times of prayer and the depths of night during the night prayer, have no equal, and we should take advantage of these occasions. The same applies to Friday night and Friday, which are regarded, for all eternity, as a special bridge of connection with the Beloved.
