A look at what is remote activation, as well as how and when to use. With awareness and the law of attraction, this approach is demonstrated as beneficial. Sometimes the most unlikely location, such as a neutral zone, is the right one to activate.

A Brief Look at REMOTE ACTIVATION

By Sandy Subotnick

Have you ever wondered why you enjoy certain people instantly? Perhaps, you just feel more comfortable with this person over another. Check and see if their birth location is highlighting a friendly region of your Astro*Carto*Graphy map. This is the most common way we experience remote activation.

Each part of our maps highlights different themes of our potential. Often, we are seeking a way to expand on one part of our lives to create a sense of balance or wholeness. The spiritual intent of our maps is to assist this personal development. It is like listening to a symphony orchestra with all the many different voices blended into one beautiful sound.

Yet, traveling to the many favorable planetary locations would not be economically feasible for most people. In fact, it is my observation that most people tend to travel along similar planetary influences throughout their life and even when they make a move they tend to remain on a similar longitude or latitude.

This could be beneficial, even though they might not cultivate and develop other important parts of their astrological symphony.

Remote Activation is done without getting in a car or on an airplane. It is an armchair travel. No need for packing that bag that is too heavy to carry. Remote activation occurs when you are visiting a power zone somewhere in the world without physically going to that zone. Yes, and sitting at your computer like you are right now, is one way to begin remote activation.

Elizabeth Kubler Ross remotely activated her Venus line when she met her husband to-be in Prague (see map below). He was from New York where her natal Venus line was. They met in the academic environment as students and shared many similar values even though they were from very different cultures.

How to use remote activation

The skill of visualization/ meditation helps to enhance these activations as it would if you were employing the law of attraction. However, working with your Astro*Carto*Graphy map amplifies the law of attraction. When using the power of visualization I recommend a meditation activity, such as focusing on a photo of the location being activated and imagining you are there.

The following is a small list of ways I have observed and guided clients to use remote activation.

Using music is a favorite for many because it can involve action in the form of dance or singing as well as listening.
Radio Internet has many possibilities for music and also listening to the language. I personally activated Perth, Australia many times this way.
One way you know that you are activating the energy of these locations is to have dreams or synchronistic meetings with people from these regions once you start on this path.
Another favorite method is purchasing cultural objects and jewelry that can be worn. Many clients have reported success with this approach. I have heard from a client who activated China by purchasing Chinese coins to hold in her hand. This is an excellent way because she handles the coins throughout the day. New business prospects have come to her from China she reported and so now she has real people to add to the activation.

Another client was overly compassionate and concerned for others (living with Moon Dsc) to the point that she was not activating her creative and exciting fire trine. I suggested remotely activating a little Mars energy (part of her trine) to help energize her life and she purchased a watch from her Mars line (in Bali) that she spotted in a jewelry /art gallery. She reported that she thought it was soon after she purchased the watch that things started turning around for her in her life. Everything started happening – such as getting a better job, getting married and a new home.

Make this fun – try spices or specialty food or learn to speak the language. Some clients tried essential oils in a small study. The oils were going to have a potential influence along with the themes of the location and this was successful with 2 out of 3 clients.

One couple chose a breed of dogs that came from favorable lines.
Someone suggested house plants and I think that might be a great way also.
One client contacted Bed and Breakfast places via websites on her Lunar Return each month and then had dreams throughout the month that guided her to what she was trying to accomplish in life.
It is important to keep using these tools and so the idea of having something to hold or wear is usually the easiest way beyond having friends and neighbors from these locations.

Some Questions

In the past several years I have had clients who asked me to help them accelerate their spiritual growth and to "catch up" with what they haven't accomplished in life as yet. This is an interesting quest that I now feel certain Astro- mapping can assist. What I suggest is to activate missing parts of their astrological profile by remotely visiting power locations on their Astro*Carto*Graphy maps.

Another question is whether there is a best timing to do the activation. I like to suggest lunar returns as a monthly time to tune in. However, other times throughout the month are important. There could be a time when certain planets are Direct that would be better than when the planets are moving Retrograde – or visa versa.

Another question is if the progressed and transiting influences are important to consider. I have had one client who remotely activated the progressed and transiting influences exclusively and found great success. But this is where more research would be helpful.

When to use remote activation

When you need to make a change but can’t move or even afford to travel are excellent times to work with remote activation.

Perhaps your business / career life is great, but your health or personal life is depleted and needs a “re-charge”. In these cases remote activation works well because it offers a simple way to cultivate the social/emotional side of your life while maintaining a busy career life.

Your health is important and remotely activating a place of quiet and relaxation is often the best prescription. On the other hand, you could seek some fire and energy to assist your health.

Each quest is unique and it will change for each individual. Find planetary zones that enrich trust of abundance, as well as feeling healthy. Sometimes, the most unlikely is the most favorable location, as in a neutral zone. These locations can be quiet and beneficial for a stressed person seeking calm.

Another excellent time to use remote activation would be when you need help with maintaining a focus on the completion of a project. This is where Saturn lines can be helpful.

As with any problem presented to an interpreter of the Astro*Carto*Graphy map, it is essential that you have a complete understanding of the individual’s birth astrology before you make any recommendations. The Venus lines will not be the best fit for all who are seeking social, financial or relationship improvements. Sometimes, the ruling planet is the right choice and that could be Pluto or Mars. Sometimes, the Sun lines are the only choice and sometimes the Moon is the right choice.

CONCLUSION

The first step in any act of transformation is awareness. Just as we take who we are wherever we travel or relocate, we don’t alter our identity with the use of this approach. Instead, we have the opportunity to become more aware of our strengths and limitations and then get to work on enhancing our strengths and reducing the limitations.

Now during such complex and quickening times we can sit back in our easy chairs and begin a journey of transformations. Attract what you need and what you want for wholeness and beauty.
