November

Spheres that use this interpretation:Task within the lineage

Interpretations are currently available in Russian only — a translation is in progress.

The November task is to pass on a craft. Something was known in the lineage, and that skill did not arrive: it was not handed on, nobody wanted to take it, there was not time.

A November person is called to restore the passing on. Not necessarily that very occupation — what matters is that they carry something through to mastery themselves and teach it to others. Children, pupils, the younger members of the family, colleagues — the circle is not fixed.

The particular feature of this task is that possessing the skill is not enough. A master who has passed nothing on has not fulfilled it, however strong they may have been.

It is fulfilled when somebody can do what they learned from that person.

Task within the lineage

Task within the lineage = month number (1–12)

The month is responsible for youth — for what has to be gone through in the first nine years — and for the present incarnation as a whole. Where the day speaks of the past, the month speaks of what is happening now.

It is also responsible for ties with people: how a person relates to others and how they build relationships. And for the lineage — on entering their month, a person takes up a particular place within the lineage.

The system distinguishes three kinds of karma. Personal karma was accrued by the person themselves in a past life. Family karma — by them too, but in relation to those close to them. Lineage karma is worked off only by descendants, and as a rule a generation on: a person deals with what a grandfather and a grandmother left behind, and their children — with what the parents left. There are exceptions.

The task within the lineage is precisely that lineage part. Its point is not guilt for one's ancestors, but that whoever moves into a house takes on the state it is in: the sorting out falls to the one who lives there.

One point stands apart: another person's karma cannot be affected. Even when someone is being pushed towards what is wrong, they answer for it themselves — and for that same reason they themselves can put a stop to it.
