Syncing with the Dragon
...a subtle tweak inside the darkening, balsamic-ever so "super"-New Moon
TGIF.
You may have noticed I didn’t shoot one of these out last Sunday. The reason is, I’ve decided to sync these up with New and Full Moons. So instead of doing “Week of…,” the themes will be correlated to lunations. There’s only so much free content the Soul is willing to part with before feeling depleted I suppose.
And so, as I write to you in this Dark Moon, the Sun is finally bright and only getting brighter here in Dartmoor. It just ingressed into Aquarius today and the New Moon will occur tomorrow (Jan 21st, 23’; at 1º 33' Aquarius). I feel it. There are always two indicators that help me feel New Moon’s close by: 1. I feel more connected to the stars; 2. I feel like it’s time to shave. I only stick a razor to my face 2x a month-New & Full Moons.
Last night, as I was soaking up some creation stories from The Secret History of the World by Jonathan Black, I came across the most interesting passage about Aquarius. He was commenting on Robert Fludd’s conception of creation-which is a Rosicrucian take. Essentially, after swimming around in the first stage of creation, being aqueous fish-like creatures in the primordial Age of Pisces, we then moved to the Age of Aquarius, where we became amphibious, unicorn-like, with lantern-Esque protrusions from our third eyes that helped us being able to feel the world. After we honed that skill, when then moved into Capricorn, that was the decision to slide onto land (see: Pricus Mythology). It’s wild to imagine. I love it. And with that in mind, how in Saturn’s name does that relate to the lunation we are headed into?
Well, the Chandra Symbol for this lunar cycle reads:
AQUARIUS 2
A woman strolling in a garden. She is unaware that she is being watched by elves.
[Commentary by Elias Lonsdale]
We adopt a split-screen mind when the outward frame of things seems so insistent that we must be reasonable and logical and make complete sense in a quantitative, functional way. But what happens is that the other side of our awareness, the outlawed side, gets very strong in the subconscious and stays alive. We can almost play off of it in emphasizing our skeptical or worldly approach to things. But there is a joke to it. For you are aware of what you are not aware of--you are tuned into the very things you deny. This kind of edge hones the mind and the soul. It teaches invaluable lessons, not the least of which is to make way for the unknown while hugging the known close to you, knowing all the whole how profoundly the unknown beckons.
Being interested in the esoteric ways, I’m sure you are open to elves. I’m sure you are also in cahoots with the fae, plants, planets, and other wyrd materials, or you wouldn’t be here. But it’s hard to get here. With the number of ideas and seemingly solid conceptualizations of the world crowding out our imagination, blocking any access by default to the subtle realms, we are seen as crazy for even considering what everyone who came before us talked about. This brings me to my point for this New Moon, which is close, it is “super,” and wants you to listen to the being in the bushes; My point is: It’s a good time to explore the edges. Get wyrd. Here’s the chart:
Spot la Luna at 10º Capricorn. Having just passed Mercury, who recently stationed direct, is headed for both Pluto and the New Moon ( see: my latest podcast). This is an interesting area of the sky for a couple of reasons.
The first being, it’s where the Great Conjunction occurred back in December of 2020, ushering in the Age of Air, officially. So now, for the next 200-plus years, all Jupiter/Saturn conjunctions will be happening in Air signs. The implications are vast, just like the endless sky. The other reason is that Pluto is about to cross into Aquarius as well on March 23rd. This border between Capricorn/Aquarius is one which challenges legacy systems, the status quo, the old world, the dinos, the Boomers, and the old guard begins to get worried (lots of empty chairs at the WEF this past week). All succeeding Signs are a response to what came before, a critique even. When it comes to Aquarius, it sees a better way. It’s much more interested in wyrd ideas and being weirder. It’s where we gather to create the next world.
This lunation will peak with the Full Moon on Feb 5th at 16º41' Leo. On the same day, Venus will also square Mars (11º Pisces/Gemini). Such a combination summons up social fears and issues we may have around groups. This lunation seems to challenge us to share our stranger sides with the world and see what it attracts. Often, we pull back from such behaviors, out of the fear of criticism, yet if we want to find our tribe, there is only one way to do it. Leaning into that, perhaps even finding a social event that is more symbolic of who we’ve become, and choosing to attend, could be a rewarding experiment. With Mars and Mercury now direct, it’s an ideal setup for taking novel action in our lives. For me, I’m off to the Azores to see what Atlantis is like 12,000 years later…
.: Must be Right-Wing :.
One of the more egregious manifestations of living in a world where the Truth is for sale and the majority of us feel gaslit by our “leaders,” is when our voice doesn’t flow perfectly with the narrative they are scripting, we are automatically right-wing-or fascist or racist or insane. Recently, I came across this article from ABC criticizing Graham Hancock’s latest Netflix series:
It’s always, “experts say” isn’t it? Now, I haven’t seen the series yet, but I have read all of Graham’s books. HE’S NOT A RACIST! He’s married to a woman from the Indo-Pacific first of all. He may believe in fish beings like Oannes or Horus (even Jupiter) seeding the next round of civilization after the Great Flood with knowledge from the last one, but a racist, he is not. It drives me crazy to see headlines like this. It’s the Capricorn/Aquarius cusp. May it end sooner than later.
Another person who is the target practice of this rhetoric is a fellow Gemini, Russel Brand. A guy who has come a long way from his drug-addled, Katy Perry-filled past and has found a very important voice for those confused between the wings, with a yearning for Spirit. According to legacy media, he is a right-wing conspiracy theorist. Hilarious. Watch this, you choose:
.: a Note on Pluto :.
This is clearly a doctored photo (they all are) but they are still amazing. I saw a few videos as well that New Horizons took, showcasing the ice mountains of Pluto. To think: it’s only been half a Pluto orbit since we’ve even been aware of him. Wild, how far we’ve come in understanding this gatekeeper.
On the subject, a couple of days ago, I released my first solo podcast in nearly a year all about this little icy “non-planet.” I focused on the ingress that’s coming but also spoke to some of the themes regarding Pluto Returns. I wonder if it’s ironic that this version of Pluto is red, white, and blue. If you haven’t listened yet, you can do so here:
I talk a lot of plutocracies in the show, in relation to the “unseen treasuries.” Within 5 minutes of publishing the podcast, this tweet showed up as a push notification:
If this doesn’t make sense to you, and you care about the subject, I highly recommend listening to Jason on a podcast explain his point. He’s an MIT fellow and has a pretty strong argument for why he feels this way. Based on the synchronised nature of the tweet, I’m going to have to agree. Pluto does not approve of Ethereum. Pluto’s time in Aquarius is going to be so revealing for the space, and the “why” of Bitcoin. And now that we are on the subject:
.: Aquarian Pill :.
As you know, Mars recently stationed direct at 8º of Gemini. In the Bitcoin chart, this trines the North Node in Aquarius. On that day, this happened:
From 16-21k in one quick explosion. It’s not the only market that acted this way. People around the world are front-running the FED, calling old Powell’s bluff on raising rates, and keeping them high. They think that he’s gone too far and will be forced to pivot. Maybe. It’s a narrative. But what’s more likely, is that it’s TIME. Mars stations give us clarity in direction. Also, Bitcoin has a strict schedule it abides by. Every 4 years (two Mars cycles), it goes through what is called the Halving. It’s when the block reward is cut in half. At the moment, miners are rewarded 6.5 BTC per block, every 10 minutes. In the spring of 24’, with the next Halving, that will be cut in half. This programmatic supply & demand Satoshi built into Bitcoin is what drives its price higher. There will only ever be 21 million Bitcoin, and we are nearly there already. There are other factors, but it’s the main one. Have a look:
Being that we are on the subject of mining, I found this read extremely eye-opening. It’s a true shame what is happening around energy and the green movement. Another Cap/Aqua cusp subject:
And a little short film about why Bitcoin is so beautiful and so Aquarian:
Thank you for reading this far. If you made it down here, you must be mad, just like myself. If you feel called to support my writing and my podcasts, you can do so on here or via Patreon where you can continue your journey in learning about all subjects found within the Dragon Hole. Next we talk, I’ll be in Atlantis. Until then…
Oh, and I also have a new website. All of my classes aren’t up on it yet, but the essential ones are. Have a look if you so desire. All my services are there as well including the Bitcoin services I now offer:
