Cosmic Diet # 2

SLEEP AND DIET

In regard to the above mentioned benefits of sleep, it is also appropriate to turn to the subject of diet and health from a cosmological viewpoint. In the Golden Age people understood that energy is available at holy sites, through sunlight, at dawn, through sleep and rest, and countless other avenues. Energy through food and drink is just an extra for soldiers, athletes, hard-working farmers, sailors, and tradesmen, and rescue workers.

Therefore, when you wake up –you don’t need to fill up the tank or recharge the battery because you are already recharged. A glass of water and a banana will get you where you are going. With this in mind either stick to three tiny meals a day, or go on an ‘energy as needed’ regime. Again, you are full of holy energy in your bones, muscle, and body; as well as extra energy from restful deep sleep. You really need to eat at sundown. This is a cosmic diet and you should align yourself to the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars. Get up before dawn and go to bed maybe an hour after sunset. From New Moon to Full Moon eat even less than you are accustomed to eat. From Full Moon to New Moon, make up for what you missed from New Moon to Full. Check the current and correct positions of the planets –not the false ‘astrologic’ positions based upon a vernal equinox that does not move in cycle. If you see Mars and Saturn together in a dry house and unrelated house like Virgo –you should slightly increase your intake of fluids and food to counter balance the dry cosmic conditions. Of course all this is subject to debate. I used to reward myself with a smoke of tobacco when I was working and creating something good. Now I use food as a reward. I am eating right now as I type. Do not punish yourself. Old habits die hard, and life is worth enjoying, so go ahead and splurge an extra meal which you promise to do without in the near future. Also take note of the seasons, and cut-back on you intake during summer and autumn –which you must make-up during winter and spring.

You must learn to cook all meals for yourself, and never eat processed food again. Forget vitamins, supplements, and all additives which are sending the wrong message to your body. Buy only the best organic remembering all the money that you have saved on medicines.

We must appreciate the cycles and change through the elementary natures of moist-hot-dry-cold. This basic physics is the secret to all aspects of life and the cosmos –as well as our deepest understanding of health and happiness.

The Cosmic Diet works! I have lost weight while gaining muscle! Why? Because the Cosmic Diet encourages you to respect food and consider what you eat. Please check out our new book on Amazon & Kindle: Temple of Heaven & Earth, concerning astronomy and energy management. If you are fat and ugly like me -a lot of the problem was that we did not understand energy management. After a restful night's sleep our 50+ million damaged cells are restored. We are recharged by sleep and inactivity which is essential to restore our bodies and mind. In reality we do not need to seek energy in food and drink -but we do not want to shock our system completely. Therefore start the day with fresh fruit and nuts. Overall, we should try to become partners with the current cycles of the universe. The cosmic diet makes us consider, 'what is happening in the cosmos?' First of all, what season are we it? Spring is moist (Lay off moist stuff it IS already in the air); Summer is hot (you need to drink and fight the heat with moisture); Autumn is very dry (increase your water intake); Winter is cold (you may now eat more fulsome and rich meals). Now consider the Moon phase: New Moon to First Quarter is moist (figure this in to your seasonal calculations); First Quarter to Full Moon is hot (you need not eat as much): Last Quarter to New Moon is cold (yes, you may eat a little bit more). Finally factor in Morning is moist, afternoon is hot, evening is dry, and night is cold. More advanced students should read Culture of Astronomy and Temple of Heaven & Earth and consider an astrological addition to your perspective by considering where planets are in the sky and how they are influencing the seasons in their cycles. When you are in tune with the universe, you become in tune with your material and spiritual self! Your body and intelligence have entered the flow of the cosmos.

Please consult your doctor before trying this or any new diet.
