Very well said Adam. What I love about the fact that we have mutable signs along with cardinal and fixed is that we can always change our minds to change our creation. We always get a chance to create something new. It’s pretty apparent creation is inclusive, containing *all* things and we, as co~ creators of our own lives become empowered creators by allowing and receiving all “sides” to inform us of all possibilities and as you said this is how we receive the opportunity to know who we are as individuals, contained within the whole expressed in the image of the Creator. I love that the Sun in Leo is trine Chiron in Aries while this mutable grand cross is happening. I think it gives us the capacity for a personal revelation. We can see where we harm ourselves by being fixed within our own idea of what “light” is and we miss so much of the receiving of the light by our own projections. You got my mind a pondering which your writing always does, thank you.

Thank you Adam. It has been a wild ride since the Jupiter Saturn cycle began and I have had my understanding of the world completely shattered and inverted and all the rest. It has been a very challenging journey and one that has cost many friendships and my career. But it has been healing and expressive. Thank you having the courage to tentatively and sensitively weigh into the culture war. It’s not nothing to speak up about what you can perceive and sense in the world around you. Even if you’re a white guy and meant to be sitting down and shutting up according to the establishment. As Hannah Arendt wrote so perceptively “the constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore. A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong. And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule of lies. With such a people, you can do whatever you want.” And in a cool synchronicity I read in Orwell this week “don’t you see that the whole aim of newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we will make thoughtcrime literally impossible,because there will be no words in which to express it”

It occurred to me in my sleepless small hours (I’m in Australia) that maybe you don’t even identify as a white guy 😬 sorry for the presumption. I didn’t mean anything by it. Just showing off my ignorance 😅

no worries. I took no offense. But it is insane that we live in a time when something like that "actually matters."

Am I missing something? Two functions of self? What of love? I was having a night of despair recently. Couldn’t sleep. I was in my head thinking really hard about what we need to be dreaming of as a collective to build a good and healthy world. The thinking became a dream as I finally fell asleep and in the dream I was trying to teach the young folk around me to be careful what they dream, that some dreams could have dire consequences, when a woman in the room said “but Megan, the only thing we need to dream is Love.” How would we heal without it? What if we remembered to express with love? And if we did, would there be all this wounding that needs healing? I know I can be way too much in my head. I feel optimistic because I believe we can all surrender to our hearts. It certainly is bonkers out there!!

I'd say that healing is contact with love and expression is an act of love. So in this idea, it's implied.

I’m so sorry I didn’t read that in, Adam! I missed something alright. I suppose that’s the danger of generalizations. We (I) need a lot of asterisks and footnotes to be clear. We are seeing so much expression these days that is far removed from love. It makes we wonder if the purpose or function of the self is to choose? Love or no love? Oh, it’s all a can of worms for this old brain. Thank you for clarifying and sending you love!

no worries at all. I like where your "old brain" is at. It's thinking about what really matters =)

As ever, from under my rock here far away from the writhing nest of human opinions fed by malefic media madness, I feel into this time, and reflect back to Dec 2020. Thanks for the prompt, as ever, Adam.

I’m grateful your high Gemini nature is able to dance with the flow of the overculture, it gives me glimpses into what’s happening out there with a Gemini’s dynamic balance of density and levity.

I’m curious what the stars say about the rise of the mythopoetic feminine? It’s what I live, transmit, and what I’m guided towards, and in Dec of 2020 was when the dark Celtic mothers claimed me. Their wisdom was admonished then forgotten for an age while we ‘developed’ as a species. Which we both have and haven’t of course. Ah humans.

Are both Saturn and Jupiter considered masculine? Is this time of tensed male star giants reflected in human leadership, the women waiting quietly in the wings to rise and offer healing and resurrection? I’d be really interested to hear more from this perspective, if it avails itself to you, sometime.

haha well said. Thank you for that. And that's a wonderful prompt. I do talk a lot about Venus, but rarely connect it to the rise of the "mythopoetic feminine" as you say. It's more personal for me. Vesta is quite involved in this Mercury cycle from Leo. Devotion and purity of intent are percolating for sure....

What a great comment, it so epitomises the Jupiter Saturn square. I’m feeling it too for sure.

I love you but there are some mistaken "facts" here - one being that a billion people, or even close, tuned into the so-called "interview" -- that is a claim made by 45. It's false. Please don't perpetuate the bullshit. By citing that outrageously false number you are falling into the trap of spreading misinformation and lies. And you don't seem like the type of person to do that. Secondly, this is the first article I've ever read of yours where it is quite clear you don't live in a body that contains a vagina. This is not a time where taking a "binary" approach is possible. Say what you will about Elon, he personifies toxic masculinity. Kind of like trump 2.0. If you identify as female in this present day world you are acutely aware that we are under threat, and we are watching the death throes of patrichial rule, worldwide. This is a time for the masculine to step aside. For those healthy men to support women. You may think this election is about "conservative" vs "liberal." It is not. For those who choose to "sit this one out" or ride with (another toxic) 3rd party candidate, or hold your nose and vote for the convicted rapist, just think of the women in your lives, and know over 90% of them have been SA'd, and under project 2025 rule, would be destined to a life with unwanted and undeserved burdens and lack of autonomy. Not to mention lack of equality in work and life.

the true numbers are tough because thousands of people streamed it on Youtube as well, but a rough estimate is around a billion it would seem; this is just X: https://x.com/MarioNawfal/status/1823209912098287756
