Mystic Sandwich

We are at a turning point in history, a juncture where many different possible futures open up for us. No longer is our future a more or less linear outcome of the past. All of the political, social, technological, and economic structures on Earth are being completely transformed. A whole new order is emerging that will shape the next chapter of humanity. Even our minds and worldviews are transforming.

While Eros eventually evolved into Cupid, the cute god responsible for inspiring love and romance, in the earlier mythologies of ancient Greece, Eros was one of the primordial Gods. Alongside Chaos, the original void from which all else emerges; Nix (Night); and Tartarus, (The Abyss); Eros was imagined as one of the original elements responsible for the birth of all else in existence, a non-gendered, procreative force spurring the creativity of the cosmos itself.

We tend to think change will require some great exhausting effort. That we will have to gear up for it and push really hard. But the change required now is to stop going about things in that way. To stop forcing and pushing. To do less, consume less, work less. Yes, Saturn in Cap lends itself to discipline and work. But as Saturn is with the South Node, we are called on to release the unhealthy patterns of Saturn, and that includes force and over-effort. 

Pluto is a deep, roiling, transformative, force that wells from the earth and through our bodies, moving us in ways we don’t understand--offering us our power back; a power at odds with our current world. In the process, Pluto--sometimes rudely--shows us our shadow.

Free souls live dangerously: how invigorating to stand at the precipice of all you know and turn your face to the wind of Mystery.

Yes, fresh air, what a relief.

But what is that niggling? What is that incessant anxiety like white noise in the background?

Quincuncx the Moon, a triple conjunction between Venus, Saturn, and Pluto speaks to closing a cycle. It’s the end of a chapter with regards to how we relate to and in relationship.
