Thank you, Harmony, for the audio recording. I have always loved listening to your teachings as you have a wonderful way of evoking the energy of what you are describing, and now we all get to enjoy this with your astrology updates as well.
thanks for the feedback velina :) being able to just talk and not have to write or structures things could make it so i can whip more content out HA! i enjoyed it and sorry about the little sounds- i think i figured it out and it was from static electricity from my sweater (due to colorado dryness). i will not wear this sweater next time :-0
I am way more audio oriented, and when you mentioned the audio format a while ago I signed up for paid right away. I love this free form format! Also I appreciate the vibration of your voice and your humor!
thank you for the feedback! i am realizing if i do more podcast/audio format i can get more content out (no writing/editing/structuring). so probably a good thing to do more of ha ;)
thanks for tuning in! sorry for the weird noises :-0 i just re-listened and i think it was from my sweater in combination with the dryness here in colorado that creates static electricity :-0 (very a la uranus as he rules electricity HA)
The heavy tread of the karmic past leads us to places we do not want to go, but
where we need to go. Somebody got left behind somewhere. We need that aspect of
ourselves now. We can’t really get anywhere without this one.
So we seek out shadows, are magnetized to the depths. We subconsciously
generate what we consciously prefer to avoid. The process draws us through spaces
that can be consuming, painful and quite extended before they even can turn into
liberating and fresh directions.
We have to go back to get on with it. We have to get under our disguise to find
our way through. We cannot shrug off the inner demand that we hunt the self down
and flesh it out, that we get in touch and in tune with everything that’s elusive and hard
to reach.
This particular pathway is one of the least attractive, reinforcing and rewarding of
frequencies to move through. It’s trouble. There is no way to minimize the factor of risk
and menace. This is no place to play.
Yet in the ultimate reckoning this can well be the beginning point, the spark for taking
a new direction that needs to have its root structure unearthed along the way. We get down to essentials honestly, candidly, and with a sense of every moment counting.
The possibilities of getting lost in this realm are multiple. The likelihood of doing it in
too rough and crude a fashion is very great. When doing shadow work you tend to
constellate the shadow, and to make it all happen from a place that is shadowed itself.
We can ask for the foolish willingness to go where we are called and to
surrender gracefully, or at least without pulling back and away. What we can look
toward is the raw, primal recovery of the soul in all its startling depth.
PHASE 1 (ARIES 1°): A WOMAN JUST RISEN FROM THE SEA. A SEAL IS EMBRACING HER.
KEYNOTE: Emergence of new forms and of the potentiality of consciousness.
This is the first of the 360 phases of a universal and multilevel cyclic process which aims at the actualization of a particular set of potentialities. These potentialities, in the Sabian symbols, refer to the development of man's individualized consciousness — the consciousness of being an individual person with a place and function (a "destiny") in the planetary organism of the Earth, and in a particular type of human society and culture.
To be individually conscious means to emerge out of the sea of generic and collective consciousness — which to the emerged mind appears to be unconsciousness. Such an emergence is the primary event. It is the result of some basic action: a leaving behind, an emerging from a womb or matrix, here symbolized by the sea.
Such an action is not to be considered a powerful, positive statement of individual being. In the beginning is the Act; but it is often an imperceptible, insecure act. The small tender germ out of the seed does not loudly proclaim its existence. It has to pierce through the crust of the soil still covered with the remains of the past. It is all potentiality and a minimum of actual presence.
In the symbol, therefore, the emergent entity is a Woman; symbolically speaking, a form of existence still close to the unconscious depths of generic biological nature, filled with the desire to be rather than self-assertion. The woman is seen embraced by a seal because the seal is a mammal which once had experienced a biological, evolutionary but relatively unconscious emergence, yet which retraced its steps and "returned to the womb" of the sea. The seal, therefore, represents a regressive step. It embraces the Woman who has emerged, because every emergent process at first is susceptible to failure. This process is indeed surrounded by the memory, the ghosts of past failures during previous cycles. The impulse upward is held back by regressive fear or insecurity; the issue of the conflict depends on the relative strength of the future-ward and the past-ward forces.
The possibility of success and that of failure is implied throughout the entire process of actualization. Every release of potentiality contains this two-fold possibility. It inevitably opens up two paths: one leads to "perfection" in consciousness, the other to "disintegration" - the return to the undifferentiated state (the state of humus, manure, cosmic dust - i.e. to the symbolic "great Waters of space," to chaos)
This symbol characterizes the first of five stages which are repeated at three levels. This stage represents the initial statement, or theme, of the five-fold series which refers to the first level: IMPULSE TO BE.

Yeah! I like the conduit/stream of consciousness vibe. It leaves room for the unseen friends to participate in the process! Rock on!
yes i am enjoying it! more coming soon :) thank you!
Love the audio!!!!!!!
thank you! <3
I’m only 33 minutes in so far and I have had so many goosebumps already…

Aries 1
A man repairing and extending a stone wall in the spring
He sticks to the task. He stays in the here and now. He doesn’t want to know
anything about the past or anything about all the complex connections you can make
between one thing and another. He is intent on freeing himself from the mind in order
to become an effective agent of change.
He will seek the most straightforward and outwardly unremarkable of contexts and
ways to do it. He is allergic to complications. He wants to get to work. He wants to see
results, he wants to stay naïve to the overall factors that others insist on.
He has this notion that he is right on it. His notion is that somebody around here
should do what's needed, should get down to it and shut up. He has heard enough to
last forever. All he can believe in now is what works, what advances things, what moves
the energy somewhere interesting.
His skills, focus and aim are incredible. When you’re this intent on one thing only, you
get it straight. And he loves that sensation of getting it right, of being on.
Yes, he does like others to notice. Yes, he does feel fervor. He’s got an attitude.
There are lots of things he doesn’t like. This is someone who has a very particular point
of view and a very particular direction in life.
When you’re a rough, straight arrow and not very sensitized to nuances, you can
indeed get yourself in lots of trouble. But when you’re willing to work hard and are good
at getting second wind and taking it to the next level, you can easily outlive your folly.
Bangs on the head are nothing here.

💖🙏🏼thanks!
This was great! Thank you so much! Sometimes I don’t have time to read, so a podcast format works better for me.
