War optics: how do we know if what we see in the media is real? I talk about Saturn conjunct Neptune in warring Aries on today's New Moon podcast; the b.s. is likely to continue, unfortunately. But, what I add here is that Neptune is the planet of illusion, smoke and mirrors. I'm getting a sense that what we are being shown - to rile us up, keep us divided and continue the military-banking machine - is at least partly a Neptunian stage show to keep us distracted. This is what my astrological analysis points to.
I have felt the same although in the last month or longer it’s resonating deeper and stronger. All the world’s a stage. What if the world’s thoughts of division and hatred is what has kept this narrative at “play” and now that we’re here (ignoring it) it’s collapsing or showing its facade? Thank you so much Erin… you’re a beacon of light
The world's thoughts are reifying the external situation, absolutely. What is also important to look at, from my research, is where the thoughts are arising from. Where are they input? What is the source? What is the motivation for so much drama and influence in the negative? That's when it gets pretty darn obvious.
Yes, I've been onto this for about 15 years. But this particular conflict is a great example. And I had to notice the Neptune in Aries, which helps it along - helps those (who look) to see the facade.
Love the cat arguing with the mouse! And I’ve been relying on the Al-Anon mantra when watching the “news”: “I didn’t cause it; I can’t control it; I can’t cure it.”

Yes to all of that. I don’t think we ultimately know what’s real. Remember Orwell’s 1984? There were three continents that were continually switching roles as to who was fighting or aligning with who.
Apropos of Neptune, James Jesus Angleton, the first director of the CIA, referred to the national security state as a “wilderness of mirrors.” Today’s friend is tomorrow’s enemy.
I tend to hold to the “follow the money” adage when trying to discern world affairs, and I understand that Iran, along with Syria, Libya, Iraq, etc—all countries we invaded—were establishing independence from the global central banks, printing their own currency, backing it with gold, etc. This makes more sense to me than all the huffing and puffing about nukes.
But in the end, we believe what we choose to believe, no? 🤷🏻♀️
Yes, I was pondering writing about the exact 1984 example of Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia - but now I don't have to, because you did! Thank you, Marcella!
Yep, follow the money. And that goes way deep with Israel, too, obviously.
Interesting your comment about believing what we choose to believe. I am pondering that. First, I am ultimately an advocate of "beyond belief." The nondual. It's all a story, and believing anything is a trap.
But that Reality isn't pertinent to our game/story here, is it?
So then we have "belief" with regard to "what is happening, anyway?" and how we contextualize that. Again with the genes and conditioning, that brings us to our own personal destiny and design, up-to-date, no blame - we're all doing it perfectly according to God's will.
So, I don't believe anything ultimately - not even astrology - haha! I play. And ponder the game of life. If I have a response and even an enjoyed opinion (for shame! ;-) ), I know it's just the angle that is unfolding through me and as me in that moment.
What I *will* say is that this BODY speaks very clearly. Is something True and Good and Right for "me"? The heart and gut and body tell me so. That's all I have (apparent) control over - my response to that.
A long response - not even that you are looking for one! :-) - and thank you for allowing me to express!
Ha ha, yes -- so familiar. In thinking about it, I realize that waking up to madness can make one appear mad...but staying asleep would be true madness...Radical Trust is my antidote 💞
I relate to the past fogginess of Pisces and the clarity around identity that's now happening. I'm enjoying the new spark of becoming a coach, knowing my soul has more to give, but I was feeling quite lost until recently. Thanks for all of your wisdom Erin. I love how direct you are.
Thank you, Lorraine. I appreciate that feedback. It takes courage to say these things direct, doesn't it? I'm glad you're feeling fresh energy and enlivenment! 🌞
I’ve never known so much rage- consciously. Reinjured the healing parts. Barely slept. Tragedies all around. I’m not trying to be dramatic but things are tight. Wired. I still haven’t shed that layer of doubt that what I’m feeling is another bit of power awakening in me and I’m not crazy. And I’ve about lost my shit. But I’m singing. Some form of a new life beginning to invite me towards the shred of a horizon. . And thanks for the reminder that all answers are in the present.
I love how we can feel both at the same time...losing our shit and being moved toward the (Aries) new. When saying that has helped me at times is, when you are going through hell, keep walking. You'll get through this, I know it. Thank you so much for sharing. 💕
It is always a relief for me to listen to your forecasts. It so validates what has been happening for the last few weeks. Crumbling, dissolving, the underpinnings really showing themselves!
I found the balance of focus on self-care- really focus on joy- a perfect counter to the raging collective energy.
I am still chewing on what flag I am flying- a few have shown themselves in flashes- but nothing solid yet.
Thank you for the work you do to channel and share these insights with us!

Exactly.
"...am I going mad or am I waking up?"
Ha ha, yes -- so familiar. In thinking about it, I realize that waking up to madness can make one appear mad...but staying asleep would be true madness...Radical Trust is my antidote 💞
Absolutely. Trust, and Faith. Both require 💯 pure Acceptance.
I adore what you're saying here of "staying asleep would be true madness" Yes!
