Venus Transit - and 'Small Business'...?

On June 8, 2004, the world witnessed what no one
living today had ever seen... VENUS - the planet
of Love, Beauty and Human Unity - transitting
across the face of the Sun.

Acording to one line of thought (and a beautiful line
at that) during this transit of Venus which lasted for
about six hours, the radiations from the Sun blended
with those from Venus and streamed towards the Earth,
and as the 'blot' (beautiful line of thought) says,
carried with them energies to weave love and unity into
our collective consiousness and, potentially...
Into Every Human Heart Too!

Though none living could have witnessed the last Venus
transit, those that missed the 2004 occurence need not
fret too much, for in eight years, on June 6, 2012 there
will be another. (After this second transit there won't
be another for the next 100 years or more)

So how does the Venus transit connect with 'small biz'?

Well, as the 'blot' continues to say...recorded history
has shown a startling relationship between occurences
of Venus transits and massive shifts in consciousness.
Matters get intriguingly interesting when we add that
according to the Mayan calendar, which predicts major
trends in human affairs, the year of the second transit
i.e. 2012 is supposed to represent the birthing of...
'A Golden Age of Enlightenment'

So the eight-year period from June 8, 2004 to June 6,
2012 is supposed to mark the time-frame for a doorway
into this Golden Age. A time-frame when ALL of us should
reach for our greatest hopes and dreams, when ALL should
seek out our greatest potential as divinely inspired
humans, when...

All can come together to create the Great Oneness!

But still, how does this tie in with Business???

Alright! Human development and growth - be it physical,
spiritual, emotional, material or whatever - will still
continue to depend on the use of things. Even in the
Golden Age! And 'things' will continue to require money
to buy them with BUT - and this might well be upheaval
times - in the new age, business or the exchange of
products & services, and the enabler of this exchange
i.e. money will be forced to undergo a shift of tectonic
proportions from the current...

Competitive - take-as-much-as-you-can from limited
existing wealth,

to the...

Creative - make-as-much-as-you-need from the inexhaustible
resources of the Universe.

When this happens, business, and especially small business
owners will be faced with their greatest opportunity - the
opp for radical change!

Now whether Venus or the Mayans are instrumental in this
or not, or as a believer of say christianity would be rightly
justified in refusing to accept any planetary influences
the 'fact' remains that this eight-year period could be
taken by smo's to re-invent themselves.

(I read somewhere that those who spot world trends have
already noticed a remarkable shift where just intending
to be nice to each other is no longer valid. Is this the
beginning to a more ethical business environment?)

And how does one re-invent oneself?

Acepting the truth that on the creative plane - as opposed
to the competitive plane - there can never be a lack of
opportunity they should immediately begin to get out of
all blatantly competitive endeavours.

Broadly speaking,

...if anyone is in a business which depends
on beating another,

OR,

...If anyone is in a business that promises
everything for as little as nothing,

OR,

If anyone is in a business where you need
to move in a hurry all the time,

Then you are most probably operating on the competitive
plane and need to get out as soon as possible. For on
the creative plane there is never any hurry YET you go
as fast as you can. And then, nobody can beat you to
what is yours because you initiate processes to create
what you need and are not seeking another's property.

Small businesses make up the absolute bulk of all
commerce and trade so if there is going to be any
kind of shift the change will have to begin with
the flexible small business owners rather than from
sluggish and slow to respond major corporations.

So here's to small business owners re-inventing
themselves on the creative plane and re-igniting their
efforts to turn into long-term, sustainable, and truly
profitable 'social entrepreneurs' ...

Joyously,
