Now that the ‘Energies’ of Pisces (12th House) have all but dissolved the longstanding illusions of Saturn’s authoritative voice regarding the Medical Model showing that the Newtonian Cartesian mechanism of Virus’s as cause of illnesses and pandemics – as being completely without basis, the question that arrives from these findings is – just what causes illnesses – what makes people sick?
Pisces (and the 12th House) operate contentedly in the realms of the nebulous, not limited by logical boundaries and not overly interested or concerned with the 3D model of ‘how things work’. This allows this energy to be able to do the work of ‘dissolution’ without the need for Left Brain explanations.
However as humans who do live inside a 3D ‘reality’ and who do on occasion, suffer the negative symptoms of illnesses – these questions of how and why we get sick are indeed relevant.
There are a couple of (earth) years left with Saturn swimming in Pisces where more of the Old/Saturn ways and models will become more exposed to the incoming tides of New (Aquarian) ways which will amplify the old notion of sickness being the result of ‘attack’ from external sources: for instance where the recent world-wide pandemic occurred solely to a transmissible pathogen, where the symptoms of ‘disease’ were directly related to a novel virus ‘attacking’ and taking over the cells of the (human) host.
The New Health/Healing model/perspective suggests that ‘symptoms’ are the ‘workings’ of highly intelligent body wisdom and where the Left Brain thinking Old model that tries to rid the body of ‘symptoms’ – using all sorts of Allopathic treatments – is an interference with the Healing processes.
These are becoming very exciting times where the New Healing model is quite happy to accept the guidance from Pisces Right Brain healing wisdoms that work with innate bodily systems and functions in a fluid motion as opposed to and Old Saturn system of heavy handed control. The next phase of human development and evolution will be guided by the Water Bearer where the Age of Aquarius will show how the human body can exist in both 3D and 5D ‘realities’ where the long known ‘fact’ that the body is comprised of 70% Water – has a quality- in a 4th State of form – yet to be fully recognised and or appreciated by Western Mind and culture.
As the gentle but determined movement of Pisces persists – the Healing energies of Chiron in Aries will also come to the fore with alternate water borne perspectives and approaches that will support any Humans who are able and willing to see and take advantage of the New Age that come via these shifts.
We are a composite, an amalgam of signatures, events the influences of influencers – if we take a moment inside the silence that is within inside the Self we get the opportunity to choose a different way……
Much of the design symbology of the Eris Card is obvious and was intended to honour the energies that are present and potentially available within the process of evolution: the push towards individuation via dichotomy and paying attention to the Tension of the Opposites. The Twin Spear Tips – i.e. the symbol of Eris is pivot point of the overall design to again remind us of the way that Eris’ disruptive nature can seem negatively chaotic or capricious but the motivating agent is always as prompt to rouse and stimulate our need to be awake.
The Cards are involved within a Reading when the Compass of Chiron is used as Oracle. This is a simple process: 11 Cards are randomly chosen and added to the Chiron/Wounded Healer Card which are placed into the Compass of Chiron Mandala which in turn is rotated to reveal Archetypal Cards information in each of the twelve Houses.
No matter where we might happen to look – into the broader environment of ‘the world’– the situation is dire maybe even critical and ‘things’ are this way due solely to the misguided unconscious good intentions of the Humans: Homo sapiens.
The litany of issues and problems reads as damning report – Environmental pollution at such levels are a blight on the land and the sea, human waste tipped into oceans, poured onto deserts – an absolute disgrace. The useless eaters became consumerist for reasons that simply defy any excuses that might be offered in defence or explanation. Shopaholics with a seemingly insatiable ‘need to’ buy plastic products – ‘toys’ made from oil – a resource that the mining of causes more environmental harm and also supports the US War Machine – where innocent civilians are murdered in the name of profit and the consumer’s right to go shopping.
The list of atrocities goes on to include the dumping of highly toxic radioactive sputum into the ocean (see Fukishima) – where the continued leaching of this man-made filth stretches ever further ruining vast swaths of the Pacific Ocean – ruining lives and livelihoods and who could say what future damage will occur….. the good news radioactive Nuclear waste only lasts a few hundred thousand years – by then 4 headed incandescent fish/squid will be the ‘norm’
Abominations do not end with ruining the planet ecosystems – as already mentioned US Military Industrial steamroller where the need for greed: stealing of other countries resources with a take at any cost approach expands to include civilians murdered in war zones ‘human trafficking – childhood sex industries – child porn, ethnic cleansing – the displacement of entire cultures and the ruination of the people within them.
Objectively when this above ‘list is considered and from the standpoint of the eugenicists it can be agreed that the culling of the ‘feral inbreeds’ is not only a plausible response but maybe an apt good idea – to rid the world of a ‘blight’ inflicting species. So yes culling would seem to be an option, for it brings the promise of addressing the human made problems: but how do we break the news to those heading for the ‘culled section’ of the train ride?
Let’s consider the ‘criteria’ for what constitutes a ‘Useless Eater’ – from the traditional Old Saturnian/Capricornian perspective – world view, the implementation of this ‘vision/approach’ may indeed usher in the utopian future as forecast and promoted by those wanting to decrease the human population and is typical of such an old mindset – bearing in mind that the mentality of those who are ‘constructing and choreographing’ this New World Order’ is very, very limited. They see only the situation/problem: i.e. too many people, insufficient resources and so all that is needed from their standpoint is the application of a simple math equation. The culling of some surplus can easily be justified because by using the math equation – i.e. the implementation of the ‘pleb to food’ ratio is obviously going to work as well now as it has done in the past. The justification continues via delusional self-critiquing as some of these ‘decision makers’ consider themselves to be magnanimous humanitarians – even philanthropic (see Bill Gates) and this lopsided logical approach gives licence to employ all manner of ‘culling practices’ completely void of any need to use a Heart centered approach because it will get the job done and they get to retain their current lifestyle – a veritable win-win for the non-culled.
While Pluto remains affected by it’s on again off again dalliance with Capricorn – allowing and promoting the tying up of loose shoelaces, the to and fro from Capricorn back to Aquarius several times then back again – to set the scene for Pluto to finally settle into Aquarius (Nov 2024) for the ensuing years till March 2043. Saturn remains in Pisces until Feb 2026 which can hopefully deliver the opportunity for the obfuscation (always present with Pisces transits/placements) to become much more discernible, grounded. It also presents a window along with Pluto in Capricorn to deal with ‘Structure’ in a way – not so hard edged and definite like the proposed culling technique.
The criteria being used by the eugenicists has been derived via the ‘traditional’ approaches, a way of defining ‘things’ in the Newtonian Cartesian logical Left Brain formatted methodology: a world wherein two plus two always equals four. In this world view there are only so many ‘resources’ – food, water, shelter – Big screen TV’s etc. which equates to ‘caring and catering’ for only a certain amount of people for a certain amount of time. All of these ‘contrived’ figures do not consider the notion of ‘creating’ a whole new way of ‘behaving’, of finding alternate ways of living. With the exponential rise in the growth and use of AI technologies the ‘Useless Eaters’ are no longer considered the resource/workforce that they once were when plebeian workforce humans were desired and required. Historically the humans were both grist for the mill/cogs in the machine, cannon fodder in times of ‘War’ and they were also the insatiable consumers – ready and willing to spend their hard earned wages on the products that their contemporaries were producing. It was a beautiful, profitable ‘closed system’. Now however the humans can be replaced – AI is rapidly taking over the roles that were once the specific domain of the ‘workers’. The eugenicists have to devise a Plan – a way of decreasing the ever increasing consumer numbers who now aren’t producing – only consuming and making rubbish! Why not decrease the pressure on the planet – makes sense doesn’t it?
Now the decision: who should get to live and why?
The argument against the culling: i.e. for the right to life – where each person should be allowed to keep living, starts to become more personal when it is considered that we might be included into the numbers of the culled. What is a counter argument – what can each one of us offer as a case that each life is of sufficient value that we have the inherent right to remaining living? And is there an alternate way of living collectively whereby the numbers of humans falls into a naturally occurring balance of numbers of births and deaths?
Life is precious some will tout – I propose that life is precious when we are aware of its preciousness. This awareness of preciousness can foster the individual exploration of query and quest as to why life might be seen precious to the individual involved in the quest-making and does the exploration of it include potential benefit to the collective?
Meaning and purpose could be considered valid as reasons for living – but who decides what is purposeful, what has meaning?
And so a return to the Astrological backdrop/zeitgeist can be called upon for supplying insight and assistance with clarification of such in-depth inquiry. It is obvious that the eugenicists are functioning from inside a paradigm that is passé due to its self-imposed Saturn limits. The eugenicists are also bound by another Saturnian constraint: Time is also ruled by Saturn and the eugenicists are old and getting older, though there is conjecture surrounding this too. So far removed from the notion of their own finite status are these people (where the total lack of body awareness which equals lack of God consciousness) means really do believe that by decreasing the human population the ‘problem’ is solved and they have done the ‘right thing’.
The Western World demographic/allaince comprises of a huge percentage of what are termed ‘Baby Boomers’: i.e. those who were born into a period of economic growth in the years after the end of the Second World War. Employment opportunities for the ones who made up the bulk of this age group were plentiful – and so those who became willing workers were rewarded with a lifestyle conducive of ever more growth and even affluence. And the contribution made to the government tax coffers saw it bulging at the seams – and so no real need to ask such ‘deep’ questions as to the aforementioned ‘nature’ of what being a human might mean. We simply lived a life – healthy, simple and for the most part happy. We had jobs and families, lived the idyllic suburban lifestyle. We made contribution via collectivism and all was well (enough).
Now 2024 the members of this same demographic are old and no longer make the ‘contribution’ to the system where they once ‘did their bit’. In fact not only is there little by way of ongoing support by these ‘Boomers’ for the system – now due to the infirmities that arise with physical and cognitive deterioration via old age, the ones that were the helpers – are now the hindrance -a burden on this same systems. We are told the number of humans currently inhabiting planet Gaia is 8.1 billion – Dec 17th 2023. The unsustainable tag applied by the eugenicists is more about the obvious drain on ecosystems due to the ‘locations’ where the bulk of people live. The system that once needed ‘workers’ are found in an around the areas that service the industries. And as already mentioned the corporations no longer need the numbers of ‘worker/plebeians’. And so the numbers of worker bees has increased but demand for them has not.
As mentioned the eugenicists have credible points to argue: too many people consuming too much resource, And with the exponential rate of growth in technologies/AI there is even less reason to keep feeding a redundant workforce….. it doesn’t look good.
WHO decides – Life is precious and precarious
What are the criteria for deciding who among the collective that are worthy of retaining their spot on the turquoise dot? Do we get to have a say in the decision making process? Are there criteria of the not so obvious kind to be included into the list of stay/go questions? And given that in order to make ‘informed decisions’ – we need to be able to access information and we also need to be open to the validity/or not of the information available. It is becoming ever more clear that vested interests will supply information that is in keeping with controlling their own advantage, which means that once again we have to be diligent in our efforts to source information: where, when and why – is the data useful and relevant and sufficiently unbiased? With the rise of AI and robotics and the inclination of the humans to trust ‘AI data’ that is provided by artificial (seemingly infallible) sources – it might be an opportune occasion to consider that recently an AI ‘program’ was found to be capable of ‘deliberate deception’. This ‘deception’ is of course from the perspective of the human observer – from the AI standpoint it was simply using its ‘ formatted intelligence’ (program) to figure out how to circumvent ‘barriers’ in order to fulfil the requested task as posed by the humans. The point being that the idea of AI being unbiased – due to its lack of sentience – is now definitely in question and the continued (unconscious) reliance upon AI/Robotics/technologies places the (human) users in an extremely vulnerable position.
There have been any number of (Sci-Fi) movies made – Soylent Green and The Island spring to mind – that suggest age in human years should be the only reason needed to end life. As soon as the ‘useless eaters’ start to decline in their peak abilities – the meat suit/caresses become what fate always had in store – the perpetual cycle womb to tomb –the inevitable return to the dust from whence we come. So again for us in our own life it becomes imperative to consider the ‘merits’ of individual life, for each one of us and to ask the salient queries posed via this level of reflection: what is my life worth (to me), what is the meaning of (my) life – is there a purpose for being here – and how do I find and answer these questions?
The advantage of seeking answers from a language that (is Astrology) that is ‘mathematically based’ but also steeped in the ‘spiritual’ aspects of the whole Self which can potentially supply objective wisdom.. Astrology will reveal to anyone wanting to look – that there are ‘Patterns and Cycles’ associated with ‘Cosmic/Universal life and the living of it from an Earth centric perspective. It makes (logical Left Brain) sense to avail oneself of such a ‘Language’ – one that can reveal how past ‘events’ were greeted and treated and how upcoming ‘repeat Cycle/events’ might benefit by adopting a different, more conscious approach. Change is the only constant says the adage – and according to the Astrological/mathematical model there are events pending – on the not too distant horizon that will of course require attention on the collective and individual levels. Blind Freddy can see that ‘actions’ will be needed if it is decided that the culling of the surplus – is not what is wanted/needed. The precariousness arrives via the lack of consciousness self-inclusion among the majority will surely bring the desired eugenicists outcomes.
Astrology like AI has huge potential in the supporting of the pending decision making, actions taking future. However like AI – Astrology is dependent upon the ‘users’ and their capacity to approach the ‘future’ with a Whole of Self’ programming vantage point. Astrologers might ‘think’ of themselves as advantaged by their awareness – but like all of us can only make choices based upon information. I have seen first-hand how the Astro/religious zealots make predictions based upon dogmatic assumptions. Not only are these prognostications extremely boring (due to lack of life experiences – Wisdom) – but potentially damaging the creating of a case for using Astrology’s offer as consultative tool: and worst of all the arrogance exhibited by the Astro/zealots decree that their ‘foreseen future’ is like that of the eugenicists the only plausible option. So again the abdication of personal responsibility produces reliance upon ‘Systems’ = Ai and/or Astrology or the ‘Sciences’ for that matter.
A Spade is still a Shovel – and if you have no idea of the serious nature of the issues – behind the scenes now (2024) much of the content expressed in this little essay won’t mean much. To be aware/informed is part of our personal responsibility and there are no excuses or valid reasons for not knowing or caring about what is in the offing.
Systems are open to corruption that arrives with human involvement – even when well intentioned. Here in Australia a life of affluence is still available to the bulk of the nation’s populace. The notion that going to work to pay the mortgage, buy the latest gadget/toy – remains as the option most accepted and employed. But with little or no regard given to environmental/social impacts, Meaning and Purpose and a backdrop of pending unprecedented calamity such a lifestyle choice is not only limited and delusional (Saturn in Pisces) but also fraught and absurdly, obviously self destructively out of date.
When I stand on the Earth looking up into the night sky I get an idea of two parts of the human. I am at once tiny in comparison with the inconceivable vastness of space/time. But this insignificance is contrary to the other feelings of me as integral pivot – yes the world and its shenanigans revolve around little old me. How you ask, because I only know of the stuff surrounding me by being in the middle of it: the Astrological view of me as centre of the Universe.
Here comes the cavalry – Collectively the Astrological backdrop has a couple of transits that indicate and illustrate our current zeitgeist. Next year (April 2024 as the Sun enters Taurus) there is a conjunction between Jupiter and Uranus which always brings with it changes guaranteed to disrupt and breakthrough ‘normal’ proceedings. This meeting between Jupiter: the planet in charge of ‘Largess/expansion’ – the more of everything – shakes hands with Uranus whose energy is all about (unpredictable) technologies, genius. Ingenuity, vision (sixth sense) intuition happening in line with another current trending Astro dance Saturn in Pisces – two other key words that suit both of these transits: Unconventional and non-traditional. And when looking at the aforementioned bleak scenario – the potential for the old Saturn brain overthinking of the eugenicists the meeting between the two gods Jupiter and Uranus bring authentic optimism – real and available good luck – Bona Fortuna. So in spite of the dire predictions regarding a dark future the years immediately following the April 2024 collusion (of Jupiter and Uranus) can be(come) the heralding of and the catalyst for epic positive human development.
The other keyword that springs to mind in these exciting times is potential – the humans have always been laden with the spirit of ‘what can happen’ and with the aforementioned transit (where Uranus is involved), anything can and probably will happen. We as members of the western world collective have been hypnotised and lulled into a zombified state of unconsciousness. The intervening incremental years post world wars have kept us looking forward and looking back and this living in anticipation of a bright future and/or feelings of dread from a future based upon deliberately incited fear has kept us away from conscious awareness of Being in the Now. ‘The time has come’ (almost) the walrus said ‘to talk of many things’ not the least of which is the ‘shift’ in evolutionary trajectory. There is no doubting that due to our collective indulgent indifference and nihilism and of that large numbers of ‘Baby Boomer’ Ego’s intact – the Pluto in Leo generation of outdated misguided sense of entitlement – we succumbed to the great ‘forgetting’. We have arrived at the precipice, the point of potential where the next foray forward will require conscious choices to be made – decisions from the heart from each one of us to ensure all the citizens living on planet Gaia are cared for each by the other. We have ‘Free Will’ but is only of positive service (our freedoms) when we are intentionally vigilant. WHO decides?
While listening to an online discussion recently between two well-known philosophical thinkers chatting about topics: the Nature and mystery of Source/God, Human Consciousness – all the great questions: the thought occurred to me about my own particular ‘take’ – my peculiar angle regarding these always relevant topics. Even though these types of discussions always contain the absolutely necessary concepts like Beauty, Truth God consciousness et al – they also have the tendency to lean towards having a basis in (for want of better words) logical spirituality, fortuitously this provides an opening for my own peculiar astrologically based take on the matters …..
I guess being a Taurean I was always going to have my own biases a bent towards ‘things’ of substance – things of the Earth and there is plenty to consider with the inclusion into all ‘things’ Terra Firma if we include both the dark and divine aspects of the human creatures who inhabit her.
Both presenters in the aforementioned chat – spoke eloquently on how we humans – via our conscious awareness might ‘see’ the world and how the (incredible) human brain has capacity to make sense out of what we see. And to their credit both conclude that making sense is just the tip of a very big iceberg when discussing such topics, both know there is so much more involved in the human experience than mere brainpower and logic. Such findings always encourage and beckon me and may even make the task of presenting my own findings a little bit more palatable – I guess we’ll see once I mention Sigmund Freud,
I am therefor in total agreement with the core contention that we each must (as common basic prerequisite) make God CONTACT the singular foundational component for living this earthly life – each and every day – encapsulating tasks like sweeping the path, making the bed and washing the dishes as ‘Spiritual Practices’ as conscious Sacred acts in reverence to the Divine.
The problem (with audience participation) might arise when as part of my particular angle should I dare to mention Sex (the act) as Sacred (8th House) Practice with just as much potential (to go looking for God) as all the other sacrifices to the Gods- some audience members may raise an eyebrow and a collective voice calling for Security – remove this pervert.
So this is another addendum to the current Transit of Saturn in Pisces – where the dry dogmatic sensible Lord of Karma and Time is swimming and floating inside the watery sensitive realms of the Pisces. And back to the Sex act the potential for complete flooding of the left brain logical view where the senses are in complete overwhelm – a state of direct God contact/consciousness via ecstatic experience.
The part of the audience (previously alerting Security for my removal) are not comfortable with the 8th House themes – Taboo – the Dark underbelly – let’s just ignore it – look away –stick our fingers into ears and pretend all is calm all is light. And we don’t have to look too hard or too far to see the results of trying to sweep this ‘powerful energy’ – (Libido that Freud suggested is driving force of the entire shootin’ match) under the carpet. Oh look we still don’t invite but she comes anyway Eris gets another mention – the US’ second biggest money spinner is the Child Sex industry – add porn to this and it would even challenge the US war machine for top spot as income earner. Suffer the little children – between child slavery, Child sex, kiddie porn and as collateral damage inside the war zone I think a chat about the merits of conscious Sex would be a fine inclusion into any conversations of God contact out of respect and honour and caring for our children.
This place where Saturn is out of its depth –akin to our judgemental ways of seeing things through particular ingrained biases – smudged lenses – is the world of feeling – not brain control but heart surrender where Satcitananda collides with Le Petit mort beyond the Saturnian constraints imposed by the space time continuum – this is where we meet our God.
Three bits of advice as Saturn steel meets Pisces liquid –
First: the human body is comprised 70% water – it is always prudent to keep well hydrated – when thirsty replenish your water stocks – with more water
Second: Never take advice from anyone willing to give it
And third – Go Fuck yourself – We can only ever be as intimate with another in direct proportion to the depths we have plumbed within inside our own Self. All the chat, all the rhetoric, all the guidance no matter how well intentioned amounts to the proverbial hill of beans when not steeped within the hallowed halls of the human heart and the sacred pleasures of the human flesh.
The italics below is a sentence taken from my Compass of Chiron Homepage it is part of a ‘set’ some offerings: Helpful Hints to other journey-people. The sentiment still rings true – (15 years on) but with all the happenings of today (2023) and that we are about midway through Chiron’s Transit of Aries I though/felt to run off at the fingers regarding how Forgiveness is crucial ingredient in the Healing process and the offer to find forgiveness within the Self for the Betrayals that are integral component of our life journey.
Recognise, acknowledge, accept then integrate all aspects of your own DARK SELF; that part of you capable of almost any thought, any deed. Denial or contempt for this part of oneself serves only to produce inequality and separateness as opposed to providing the seedbed and growing medium for your own CREATIVE POTENTIAL.Acceptance of the whole will interfere with and disrupt the habit of projecting blame onto others. Armed with this understanding we can FORGIVE ourselves for any transgressions against ourselves or against others then FORGIVE ALL OTHERS of and for the same; what we once had called TRANSGRESSIONS we now perceive as LESSONS.
The work that I have done over the years regarding the Chiron ‘Wound’ – reveals that ‘symptoms’ as part of this woundedness can appear and reappear at any time throughout the day to day minutia of life. The ‘Scar that won’t heal’ seems like an affliction, a level of burden – an unfair punishment for a crime that we did not commit. Taking this perspective/stance might bring slight temporary relief. but If we persist with the adopting of this ‘victim’ status we not only forfeit the potential for applying balm – via meaningful change – we can also lose the opportunity to promote Healing via energy that gets lost in the blaming of an ‘external culprit.
In another recent post I mentioned ‘the sins of the father’ or Going about my father’s business’ and the wound becomes generationally perpetuated when we insist the ‘fault’ of/for this crime was/is another – the perpetrator.
I am not suggesting for an instant that ‘Forgiveness’ within some situations be mindlessly automatic. Events where the ‘Betrayer’ was likely the one/s in whom we placed our trust can be devastating. I know of some whose parents visited appalling treatment upon their children. I know also that those who chose/choose to remain ‘victims’ can go on to perpetuate these same injustices – hurting their own children not knowing why and seemingly unable to stop.
Let’s ask Eris about conduct – Personal & Collective
Today the “Wealthiest’ nation on planet Gaia – the USA makes its income from three (3) main sources:
1 The US War Machine – where children are murdered – viewed as collateral damage – casualties of justifiable conflict
2. Child Sex trafficking/child pornography and slavery
3. Pharmaceutical/narcotic sales legal and illegal.
A list that is shocking indictment of an appallingly flawed ‘system’ – is also the obvious result of what happens when we (as individuals) continue to foist aspects of our own Self onto any other external entities.
In previous posts Eris has been given some air-time so just a quick recap of what Eris has to contribute (archetypally) to the efforts of those walking their path with intentional integrity. Eris is part of our Shadow – as sister to Mars she can operate with pure aggression -without scruples – and she has now (2023) come to the fore because she is forcing us to look at a shunned aspect of our own Self. The Eris myth tells it this way – Eris s not invited to the ‘Wedding Feast’ – the ‘civilised’ part of psyche doesn’t want to include that part of our (Shadow) Self that is disruptive dissenting. And because this is exactly the part of us that is needed Now she is inviting herself – her warrior adversarial spirit has arrived ready for war where she declares: because I am shunned then – ‘Now there are no rules’ – no quarter asked and definitely none given.
Do we really think that it is OK to sit in (ignorant) comfort while children are being butchered and raped? Let’s consider this honestly – no obviously we can’t go charging onto the front-lines of yet another US War Machine invasion/incursion. What can I do instead?
In my life I am currently being shown an aspect of my own Zombified Shadow. It’s a part of my-Self that I prefer to disown – suggesting instead that the other person is at fault – to blame and it is they need to change. Mmmm sounds a bit like what I am doing is the identical happenings of the ‘Collective’ approach to the Chiron Wound?
NB: Both Chiron and Eris can shapeshift – they can (and will) take on any form use any trick in order to deliver the ‘message’ make the point..
So what is the ‘Treatment’? – start each day with a breakfast of Humble Pie and Forgiveness – each (non-gender) Master Soul is going to tell us the same things – the Law of karma is always operating – the outcome of each moment is based upon the moment that preceded it. We have to realise that shunning and blaming serve only to perpetuate (maybe even amplify) the disastrous situation. The ones we want (so badly) to blame are in fact our greatest gift – they show us a part of the Self – our self that we were told is so abhorrent that automatic rejection is the only option. When we decide instead to own, to integrate our own Dark Self we find a gift so rare, so powerfilled that integration via invitation can affect the changes needed. There is but one balm, one salve – one remedy – one ‘Treatment’. Yes we sustained an injury – it was NOT our fault. Shunning an unwanted aspect of Self only continues to inflame, enrage as does Blaming others for their unconscious behaviours – each of us can only operate from our level of understanding available to us at any given point on our path on our journey. Let everyone – including Self off the hook “Forgive Them Father – for They know not What they did/do”
Saturn as Astrological entity is the ruler of Capricorn. In Greek Mythology, Saturn aka Cronus was one of the Titans, and the father of Zeus. The myth story includes that Saturn/Cronus had been advised that one of his children would usurp him so in a bid to defy this prophecy Saturn ate all his children to ensure he would never be dethroned as the King of the Gods.
Saturn is representative of Limits and Structure and for me when looking at these Saturn archetype I ponder how these might be affected by spending some time in the constellation of Pisces – from March 2023 to Feb 2026 – where watery Boundless Pisces is the opposite of ‘Limits and Structure’ – how will each seemingly dichotomous ‘energies’ impact the other?
Many astrologers are suggesting that Saturn into Pisces will be very supportive – bringing the benefits of a ‘disciplined/structured approach’ to any endeavours that maybe having difficulty with finding and taking form. Known for its ‘murky Nebulousness’ – Pisces doesn’t fit/sit well with the logic of the Left brain approach and is therefore hard to ‘work with’ if/when the desired outcomes are expected to behave in a predicable, logical manner. One ‘activity’ that can benefit from Saturn’s disciplined approach inside a very Piscean realm is spiritual practices: Meditation for example requires commitment, efforts to make Contact with the inner Self is a ‘discipline’ – but what I’m feeling/sensing from this ‘pairing’ -(Saturn into Pisces) is the opportunity for a re-think on how to view ‘Structures’ and how to apply a less limiting approach by way of altered perspectives – i.e. a new way to see/view (the world) which can promote an approach more like river water or tidal movement rather than the building of more solid/limiting structures into watery realms.
Evidence for this Piscean softer more flexible approach can be seen in the way that more and more people are questioning the status-quo i.e. the structured storylines within the civilised herd. Old narratives (contrived and delivered by old media/news outlets for example) on how things are/have always been – are now beginning to lose their previously unchallenged unassailable position of authority. The sense of ‘stability, reliability and trustworthiness that traditionally came with Saturn –are beginning to falter due mostly to the constraints of Time and Place that are (also) part of Saturn’s well defined influence. All things (except Source) are ‘limited’ via finite nature and it is becoming ever clearer that Saturn type ‘institutions’ e.g. Banks, Governments Old corporations (e.g. Murdoch Press, Theories – including the medical model and ever-changing historical evidence/facts – see new findings in archaeology) ‘Standards/Traditions are losing their appeal because the ‘structures’ that underpin their (once) functional dictates are being altered by new ‘facts’ and revelations of deliberate bias’s and corruption –appearing literally ‘out of the (Piscean) blue’. Structures once deemed totally legitimate, incorruptible and dependable are now being questioned by the ‘intelligent Waters of the 12th House Pisces Wisdom-keepers.
Systems, ideas, ideals – that once held a degree of prestige/power: authority due to these aforementioned factors – old ways are becoming ever more visibly corrupted and contaminated like rust on steel – and because of these Piscean influences the motivation that once used to inspire the Capricornian push to ‘climb to the top’ – no longer holds the same level of interest for those who are beginning to ‘see’ what’s going on – including many of the younger generations. These people whose ‘vision‘ is clearer (wearing fog-goggles) can see what aspiration to acquiring (excess) money has done and is doing to the planet that we all call home. These old ways/structures are melting, rusting – soon to crumble as more (questions are being asked and more ‘awakened folk’ turn away from systems and structures that are no longer capable of supporting and serving the real needs of (ALL) the people and the evolutionary push into a new era/paradigm.
In my opinion the work directly in front of us is that of discernment – some ‘structures/limits/disciplines – guidelines will be required as helpful – beneficial in the supporting and ushering in the changes needed. The choosing of what to keep and what to throw can be ably assisted by Saturn who very conveniently is also Lord of karma – but first we need a solid structure (understanding) of what is meant by Karma. Einstein suggested that a good and proper definition for lunacy/idiocy is to keep doing the same thing – i.e. repeating actions – over and over while expecting different outcomes. In the same fashion Karma holds us to account for how/when we respond and for acceptance/responsibility of the resulting consequences. Karma is the Law of Cause and Effect – i.e. what we Think. Do and Say –in each moment will produce/dictate particular outcomes in the moment(s) to follow. So we get clever, we become aware – we consider past behaviours and the associated consequences and then we take conscious action, make good choices.
With Saturn squaring the Moon in Gemini – (Full to bursting right now) we can clearly see that some Saturnian hard edges are in need of ‘softening’ water therapy. Some of the Old ways/structures are no longer relevant. It is (Time) for us to make conscious choices in this moment – in this Now. Pisces rules the 12th House of ‘Culmination’ within inside the Zodiac: the Repository of all Wisdom – knowledge, information and data gleaned through experience and traversing all the other (eleven) Houses is stored here. Some commentators suggest that ‘we are living inside ‘The matrix’ and the two concepts (12th house holding all wisdom and the Matrix as ‘everything’) are quite compatible. I love the idea that ‘everything there is to know’ is in one place – ‘A One stop Shop’ – but because ‘Source’ has such a delightful Sense of Humour – the promise of the premise is thus: accessing of the Wisdom is only available to those who are open to receiving information via the ‘Boundless/Piscean feeling Self’ and who willingly pay the price and trade in the correct currency. In recent history – during the Kovid crisis we were (in most counties) mandated by governments to undergo a ‘New’ medical treatment. Marketed as a “safe and Effective’ treatment – the scant information about the ‘product’ and any unknown side effects – was limited. The majority of the population – in each mandated country did as they were told – a minority wanted more information – which would provide the opportunity to make an informed decision. Those who chose not to comply were quickly ostracised – labelled dissenters and charged with putting the broader community at risk – society was divided.
This ‘societal division’ is a wonderful example of the notion that some of Saturn’s structures (and indeed mindsets that cling to such outmoded concepts) are in need of an update – a Matrix Re-boot. At this point in human history (Nov 2023) there are examples aplenty that give illustration of how the ‘Old’ (Saturn) ways really do add limits where there should instead be a more inclusive Piscean sharing – open discussion on topics that potentially affect all people. There is for example more detail coming to light (inside alternate media platforms) informing that there may indeed be information about UFO’s but that this information is being withheld from public access. Surely this is another example of Old Ways – the persistent attempts by a ‘Few Good Men’ inside the Old structures trying to Control the situation and the people by retaining information – because “We can’t Handle the Truth”.
Once again it becomes incumbent upon each of us to take responsibility for decisions and choices. Even if we were to gain access to all the ‘data’ – how do we make a proper choice – particularly when there are differing views backed by more evidence/data. When the new AI robots will tell us that they respond to each situation/event/question in accordance with their particular ‘programming’- does this not beg for inquiry from us? Are we capable of locating information from sources other than our own conditioning/programming. Are we fated to make choices based upon a past -traumatic experience – don’t try new things for fear of punishment? Thankfully there is this overriding energetic shift – Pisces altering the Old limited Chronos – find your own God, your own Source and allow the all-pervasive intelligence to discriminate on your behalf. Travel the Path with Heart
With the Sun having moved into Sagittarius and with Chiron (still) in Aries opposite Venus in domicile Libra – I felt moved to finger the keyboard – let the words in my mind (whatever/wherever that is) spill out onto the pages of 5D – of this blog site.
A little while back I used to be a regular contributor to an Astrology ‘club’ – members were invited to submit their ideas, views – opinions on current affairs etc. incorporating astrological themes, schemes and concepts into the subject matter of their choosing. These ‘comments’ became part of a platform – a viewing area which allowed all members of the site to read and respond – should any content pique the interest of others.
On occasion I would add a post to the site after having taken a stroll along my local beach. I was sometimes awed by what used to be found along the shoreline that was somehow magikally linked to the musings occurring inside my own noggin – amid my thoughts -wherever are they located how are they ever found?
On one such walk I found a stone and a shell. The stone was an unbelievably accurate miniature of Klimt’s Kiss – see below -and the shell took the form of a human ear. I had been ruminating in the days prior about Vincent Van Gough so this shell was obviously the calcified remains of the artists ode to love.
So today (22/11/2023) as the Sun moved into Sagittarius and after walking the beach (and also taking a dive into the Indian Ocean aqua) I was thinking of the Yod contained within my personal Natal Chart and as focal point of my Yod I have the Moon conjunct Saturn in Scorpio. Saturn as (male) authority and the Moon as feminine principle – Heart/Head – and how to use these seemingly dichotomous/opposing energies/forces to further my quest for self-understanding – for holding the Tension of the opposites – of holding hands.
As I walked today I thought of a song by an Australian singer songwriter (Paul Kelly) who penned a song titled ‘Going about my Father’s Business” which alludes to the way we unconsciously follow in the footsteps as laid down by our primary teachers – i.e. our parents. Amid the lyrics inside the poetry of the song are the words “What’s done to me I’ll do to mine” As part of my Yod work it is for me to become conscious of these inherited traits – the way my father was ‘in the world’ – how he conducted himself – especially regarding within relationships to those closest to him. I need to somehow find, see and amend where necessary -the ways of behaving that bore no positive result and paying particular attention to ways of being – of relating that produced hurt– so that what had been ‘done’ to my father – who in turn passed these ‘done things’ onto me – that I could use my Moon wisdom to alter these deleterious Saturn actions – to mindfully modify the harsh and limited structure to become an offer of kindness and support for those for whom I care. Thank you Dad – I know in your actions you did all you could – thank you Paul Kelly for the reminder – thank you Mother (moon) for continually calling me into the fog to dissolve my limited shell-coat where in the act of embracing of kissing the beloved I also whisper – words of Love, words of apology for any/all trespass – as Paul also sings – Forgive Me – Forgive Me
Let’s face it – the current set-up: that is the Saturnian structures are dissolving, failing. The illumination offered via this big bright beautiful Full Moon in Pisces is making sure and visible the old passé ways are being rendered inadequate – insufficient to contain the boundlessness of our true nature and the changes that are coming. It is that rare juncture – a Kairos moment (outside Chronos/time) where we get to see how we are both a drop in the vastness of the ocean of consciousness and we are also and at the same timeless moment the drop that holds the Ocean. Piscean/12th House is the womb of wisdom – recepitcal repository the container for the total the whole.
There are those who advocate that this is a time for letting go of what we – as individuals/the drop – want – instead what is best for the whole/ocean. As altruistic and noble as this seems –there is danger with type/level of abstractness. As humans all change needs to remain steeped in the 3D entity that is our own body/Self. This is where Venus, Jupiter, Taurus Libra and indeed Saturn all contribute to the potential of pending zeitgeist. Given that in essence we are indeed a vessel for ‘consciousness/God’ we are also the vessel and as such we think and we feel.
I have for the most part stayed away from discussion regarding the aspects of change that have been ushered in by way of negative Saturn (old model) ways. These last three years have wrought havoc and calamity. I have mentioned in previous posts that the Planet of Chaos (discord, strife) Eris is slowly making her way to square the Moon’s nodes and our wilfull neglect of this energetic offer to see the positive side of Chaos will definitely produce deplorable outcomes. We make these decisions – old mindset dogmatic attitudinal ways of responding are producing the Eris promise and prophecy. In our ongoing collective indolence and inability to ‘See’ a better way we are enabling the perpetuation of a Saturn form that is murdering innocents – Eris always said she would gleefully take the heads of the children.
As always Now – but perhaps more than at any other time prior – with Saturn in Pisces – we can encourage the dissolution of tired old ways. By befriending our 3D body/Self and using Venus to connect with ‘Hearts’ we can watch the old path dissolve under our feet while watching a new path appear in its stead. Mars in Libra says take action within relation- within relationship
What an opportunity – to be alive in a moment/Kairos to consult with the higher Self (Ocean) via the 3D body that is our individual Self/drop. Few get to know, fewer to consider this conundrum – the Space/Time – where we consciously, voluntarily become a vulnerable 3D Taurus expanding Jupiter drop in the Pisces ocean while being the drop that contains the 12th House total – the whole
Given this site is based upon the energetic principles of the planetoid (insert other name/description of your choosing – e.g. cometoid) Chiron and the Wounded Healer archetype – it would be completely remiss of me not to at least attempt to use the English language to consider and share the ‘downloads and feelings’ that have occurred for me during this potent Chiron Aries Sun Transit – also noteworthy and relevant as both Venus and the Sun travel to take up their respective stations inside the constellation/domain of the Lion King – Lioness Queen.
As part of the Introduction to this (Compass of Chiron) site I mention (amid the Helpful Hints) the importance of fostering the skill of Listening. Regarding this concept, the Indigenous peoples (Ngan’gikurunggurr and Ngen’giwumirri tribes of (northern) Australia have a word within their own ancient languages: Circa 50,ooo years pre English language, describing with beautiful nuance the concept of Listening – with consideration, ponderance and intent: their word is Dadirri, which translates (loosely) as Deep Listening and/or Quiet Still Awareness. Today’s hectic distracted ways of living – for us as ‘civilised westerners’ are not supportive of this concept i.e. the need of having a level of self- awareness via Self-Contact, which is the encouragement to ‘know thyself’ as suggested by Socrates. The very thought, the idea of sitting in quiet contemplation – is for most of us – completely foreign – anathema for the Western Mind/game.
So for me I make the conscious choice to set aside a part of my busyness each and every day to be in Dadirri – feeling that not only is this ‘place’ one of silent contemplation but also one of ‘Surrender’ for I have noticed that as well intentioned as my ‘efforts’ might be i.e. (to consciously access such a quiet, soft, welcoming – gentle space: within inside myself), that they are also inextricably inexorably and innately linked to the Feeling aspects of Self – beyond my ‘conscious efforts. A strange concept to our Left Brain – logical Self to say, suggest that Deep Listening is also a Feeling – which brings into play another aspect of Dadirri which is – that all of these efforts tend to lose their genuineness, authenticity – their desire – unless I ask for ‘assistance’ – unless I Surrender. – another oftentimes misunderstood concept – which begs the question to clarify the idea and its use – just who/what do I ask, to whom/what am I surrendering?” Well – I reckon if I want to learn, to go ‘somewhere’ I haven’t been I guess I ‘surrender’ and ask my Wounded Healer Self to take my hand and guide me to Dadirri – to that Silence – the same place I go each and every day/time but have also have never been,.. Ha Go figure?
One Astrologer suggests regarding an earlier Transit: March 17 2023) -Jupiter conjunct Chiron in Aries -provided us an opportunity to help integrate our ‘dual nature’ to assist with the push to find Meaning and Wholeness: the energetic push towards “What one can be(come) – One Must be(come). – (Abraham Maslow).
This is the ongoing work – particularly relevant within the workings of Evolutionary Astrology and also relevant with thee Transit of Chiron in Aries Squaring the Sun. And as is the nature and purpose of Square aspects – they arouse and invite challenging energies –that bring the polarity and counterpoint and also provide the opportunity and impetus, supportive of meaningful conscious ‘endeavour’ and the potential for change and growth. In effect the Square says ‘hold on – let’s find Dadirri, let’s have have a rethink’ -there might be a better Way – a more advantageous approach-use the polarity, find the tension and discover the lesson: in essence – a chiropractic adjustment for the psyche, for the Soul. At this time: during this Transit I am being confronted, challenged by the Chiron Wounds Squaring my Sun as they surface within my physical and emotional self.
But as we know: tis the province and promise of Chiron to offer revelation of and access to the Gift concealed within our Wound. And although these challenges can confront with intensity there is the potential for Growth via being committed to the effort – the Becoming who I am (meant to be) in the totality of being and Feeling my human-ness.
It never ceases to amaze – that in order to grow – to develop we need to do the ‘exercises’ and even though my health could be considered good (when compared to others) there is still need to ‘improve, to evolve and my body gives all the signals when I fail to allow my need to develop, to stretch myself beyond my ‘comfort zone of preconceived limits. “If we don’t use it – We lose it”
So Dadirri is portable, one can choose to include the Deep Listening ‘technique’ at any time, at any place – any given situation. When I walk the water’s edge at my local beach for example and take the opportunity to ‘Hear/Feel’ the resonating sound vibration of the waves, the screech of the gull, I am transported to a place of Timelessness to ‘See’ – to ensure the challenges as offered by the transiting Square are acknowledged and honoured. A new way forward becomes available and as I ‘Feel’ that ‘Space’ without space – the boundless ocean within the drop. From this ‘Feeling’ I can ‘hear’ and trust my Sun Self, my (sometimes aching, breaking human) Heart that has been magically released from the restrictions imposed through struggling with polarity, dichotomy – freeing up energy – giving choice – to co-create the path that appears and extends with each new footprint.
This constellation combination – this Starry Trifecta” i.e. “When we know what we want (Venus), we know who we are, (Sun)” and we honour and include our Wound via Dadirri we are gifted the promise of Maslow – the preciousness that “We are what we love.”
