I'm writing to you from the South of France. I haven't slept well the past few nights, as I suspect most of us are also experiencing.
Â
Emotions are high. There's a lot going on personally in our lives, and in the world around
us.
Â
Of course the astrology can tell us about this. And it's also important to feel into it. To really care for ourselves right now through it all, in the ways that we can.
Â
To focus on what we
actually have control over. Our own lives, our emotional and mental health and well-being, regulating our own nervous systems.
Â
As well as probably staying off the internet and social media as much as we can.
Â
Astrologers in general seem to be getting a lot of backlash right now. Some have forgotten that we all share humanity.Â
Â
As I've said, and will always say, predictions with astrology or any divination craft are fickle and uncertain. (Anyone telling you otherwise may have an agenda in doing so). The future is not
solid. While we can see energies, and themes, specifics are never ever guaranteed. Nothing is ever written in stone.
Â
Which is a beautiful realization! The unknown is where unlimited and infinite possibilities lie. And, it can also be scary to our human monkey brains that want to understand and want answers. BUT, it is my belief that we are being
shown all this as a way to better understand our own vain reliance on the external.Â
Â
The things we all seek as caring, concerned humans for the world... start from within.Â
Â
I've had
Mars, my current time lord, moving through my 10th and 11th Houses and it hasn't been fun. Knowing this gives me peace around why it's happening, and that it's only temporary... sure.
Â
Yet experiencing it anytime I go online in the form of intense emotional projections and anger from others on my content, isn't easy.
Â
And so, the advice I share is very much the advice I am learning to live. Turning inward. Returning to books. Asking myself, "How can I find joy today?" The simple things. Things we may have been reminded over the summer and lost in the chaos of the season change, among other things. What can I share/say/do/create to have a greater impact?
Â
That's really what matters right now.
Â
It has always, and will continue to, matter. Yet sometimes we forget that in the busy whirlwind that the world can be.
Â
Take lots of deep breaths. Go outside and stare at a tree.Â
Â
The world will be okay, and so will you. You are playing a crucial role in it all. You are here for a reason.Â
Â
You are experiencing what you are, for a reason. It is your story, your legacy. It is what builds you into who you are becoming, and the destiny you are living.
Â
If or when you're struggling to remember that... find inspirational content on YouTube or a
podcast. Listen to positive stories of transformation. Find a good self-help book (I have loads of recommendations here).
Â
And, please,
remember we are all in this together. United we stand, divided we fall (funny enough this phrase has tended to resurface around Uranus in Gemini transits, which we will have briefly in 2025).
Â
Sometimes things have to get "worse" before they get better. Yet, all the better they are getting still.Â
Â
In the meantime, kindness goes a long way. To yourself and others.Â
Â
You are loved. You are needed.
