There is no such thing as coming to a good poise and then stopping.


The only true state of fully conscious presence that resembles power is a state of constant inner motion out of unobscured potential.

Is this material world an illusion, or worst still, a prison?

This is the worldview commonly associated with the Gnostics, and is undeniably blasphemous to the Pagan mind. But is it really what the Gnostics believe(d)? Certainly not if you ask one-time Fyrgen Podcast guest and scholar John Lamb Lash.

Some German friends recently introduced me to the 1982 animated film 'The Last Unicorn' which, despite being a children's film, is quite enjoyable. One scene in particular caught my attention, because it rather perfectly expresses what I believe to be the true Gnostic message regarding illusion.

In this scene it is revealed that a 'witch' is able to alter how men perceive reality, but never to alter reality itself. The false Demiurge and Archons spoken of by the Gnostics are, likewise, able to deceive mankind into mis-perceiving the natural world, but cannot create or alter material reality itself.

Nature is wondrous in her display and intent. Deception is the ugly polyester robe cast upon her.

We're back lads and ladies.⚡️🔥

“The new Age of Aquarius is the Age of ‘Knowing’, traditional astrologers considered the whole Age, all 2150 years, to belong to Saturn, but recent astrologers, since the rediscovery of Uranus, have placed the father of Saturn (Uranus) as the ruler for the first 1000 years of this epoch. This makes for a very interesting contrast of planetary energies influencing humanity. While the controlling elite, predominantly aligned with Saturn, are expanding their restrictive Saturnian control grid; Uranus, the planet of rebellion, revolution and unpredictability will be pouring out cosmic frequencies over the human consciousness. Energetic vibrations of freedom, new technology and a need to break with tradition. This will certainly lead to interesting times.”

Controlling the Storms of Anger

when something raises that fiery feeling within you
The spirit of anger is trying to possess you

rather than just feeling and becoming the anger - possibly passing the spirit on to others around you...

STOP - and question WHY something has made you angry.

Has some event transpired that reminded you of your own shortcoming?

Did you take something personally and take offence to something - when you could have just let it pass?

Are you defending some fake egoic nonsense that doesn’t matter?

When the spirit of anger gets hold of person, it can make you curse people who are important in your life. It can make you say things that you don’t mean. It can lead you to actions that you may regret forever.

To let anger control you or your actions is to allow your life to be built on quicksand.

Analyse what it is that your ego feels threatened or diminished by.

Did you make the conscious decision to feel this anger?

No - it arose of its own accord.

once you KNOW that its not coming from you - and you recognise that you don’t want to embody this and let something else other than your own consciousness control you - the anger disappears.

Obviously there are some situations where it is morally ‘right’ and deserving to feel anger - but make sure you are not getting angry and upset over trivial bullshit or rising to the bait that someone has provoked you with.

99/100 times in our day-to-day life, it is not a situation that deserves anger, and there are hardly ANY times where allowing the anger to control us is the right decision.

Even if Anger is the correct moral response, ACTION taken while embodying anger is never the smartest plan of attack, if you want to rectify the unjust situation

You cannot be given offence, only take it. This applies to all things. No buffoon in the street can disturb your inner peace unless you allow it first.

We’ve all made mistakes saying something in anger that we don’t truly mean. We wish we could take it back. But we can't, instead we should develop the control to utilise or direct our anger for good instead.

Not to mention the numerous biological negatives of feeling excessive emotional turbulence - cortisol spiking, heart rate rising; your body in a state of perpetual sympathetic nervous system arousal because everything around you 'makes' you respond with anger

Some even theorise that those with cancers in the body have had years of repressed anger held inside.

it is in your best interests to manage the storm of emotional thought that most people let control them.

Observe the emotion as it arises in your waking mind - and let it pass. This is the essence of conscious awareness and with practice, can work to give us back control of our minds.

To be a slave to the unending river of unconscious thoughts is to allow our demons to control us. The first step is recognising we are in control.

Rest,
Retreat,
Disengage:

Airy,
Aloof,
Withdrawn from the world.

Heal,
Recharge,
Re-center:

Watery,
Flowing,
Resurging into the world.


Return into action with
new grounding and inspiration.

Earthy,
Fiery,
rooted in renewed, blazing power.

Step up your resting game.

It is a favorable day for purification, ascesis and offering assistance to others.
Complete unfinished work, do not start new projects. Reap the fruits of your labor.
This new moon is unusually harmonious. Turn inward and balance yourself. Sum up and reflect the past lunar month and plan ahead for the next.
Come to quiet as this is a day with very subtle energy. Physical power is low today. This is a period of self-renewal, recuperation.

🌑

Some suggestions for today's practice:
- energetic cleaning of self and living spaces
- casting protection spells, using talismans
- ablution
- fasting
- silence
- meditation: breath work, visualisation, purification with fire
- outdoor explorations
- only light housework: create a positive atmosphere with gentle arrangements, don't start big tasks, don't fuss, don't exert yourself.

This New Moon teaches us not to betray ourselves, our aspirations, and our principles.
It encourages us to calmly assert our position without disputes, reproaches, conflicts, and aggression. It helps us strive for perfection in our choice of priorities.

🔥🌑🔥

Annular eclipse visible in USA, Central America, Colombia, Brazil.

Effects of the eclipse will be noticeable starting around 3:00pm UTC, peaking at 6:00pm UTC.

This eclipse plays out on the south node, which is in Libra from July 2023 through January 2025. The south node functions as a karmic release valve, a parting point for shadows, selves, and history. In those uncanny moments of the eclipse, the sun’s fire acts as a seal, binding something dark and abject, giving it shape and contrast through which to emerge.

Eclipses are not necessarily times for manifestation, but rather, reshufflings of the cosmic decks. The currents and culture around us are shifting.

1/2

What this means is that this eclipse will aid us in integrating shadows in Libra's domain.

Libra rules our relationality, objectivity, relative perspective:
How do others reflect back what we wish to see in ourselves?
How do we reflect back on them?
Are we skillfully partaking in a balancing act or is it just pretense? Keeping up appearances?

Not every balance is worth preserving.

Note that preserving = stabilizing.

Libra (lat.: scales)
Looking at an old, traditional balance or set of scales ⚖, note that this thing is specifically designed to be instable. Rigid and "stable", it would be rendered absolutely useless as a weighing tool.

⚖ Remember that balance is not static, but a deeply interdependent fluctuating motion between opposing  forces. Invite movement. ⚖

Are you a people-pleaser?
It's time to tell the truth at all cost.

Do you bend over backwards to fit in?
Learn to be authentic, and learn to stand out.

Do you exist in the estimation of others?
How do they see you?
How do they see themselves?
How are you unconsciously reacting to that?
What are you projecting?

Scrap that. Burn it all. Lose your flimsy concepts of social standing and renew yourself.

This is an ideal time to experiment: Flip your image. Openly say no to things you don't want. Understand discrepancies between authentic relationships and calculated connections, and equally see how a relationship has the potential to be both authentic and calculated.

Relish in disappointing others and find out who really has your back.

This eclipse is especially auspicious for breaking your paradigms around relationships and roles.

Take off the glasses distorting your view and get your eclipse goggles ready.

2/2

A new set of affirmations will show particularly strong results if implemented starting today. ⚡️

Are you living your religious principles or are you living as an atheist? Your behaviors are a macrocosm of what is going through your internal microcosm. If your life does not align with your ideals, it is critical to turn inwards, remember your path, and realign with truth.

Yesterday's new moon solar eclipse was a big deal spiritually, and its effects have the potential to carry over into a new state of the world and of being in the world.

Make it so.

Allow its impact on your development to be significant.
Use this cosmic alignment as leverage to greater power.

I trust you've reflected well and have reborn yourself in the roaring fire of the symbol of singularity.
