PRETTY STOKED FOR HUMANS


Beloved Soul Family! My heart is full at this full Moon (exact exactly 42 minutes ago as I write this) with Gratitude for this community and all the healing + revealing in our soul collective. I feel each of you all the time and am always holding you in Love Absolute, cheering you on, nudging you (occasionally) and essentially basking in your magnificent soul light. The planet itself is grateful that you are on the front lines of this consciousness shift, actively raising your frequency and training yourself to hold and transmit the higher collective frequencies that are activating now on Planet Earth.



Speaking of activation, WE ARE IN IT. The biggest story astrologically is Chiron moving from Pisces into Aries, where he’ll remain for 8 years. I’ve been with this for some time now, as my natal Chiron is at 29 degrees Pisces, so this is an energy I’ve chosen to work with deeply in this lifetime. Chiron is a minor planet in the outer solar system which holds the archetypal vibration of the centaur, half-man, half-horse. He suffered a fatal wound but being immortal, was doomed to suffer eternally. His pain drove him to seek relief, which put him on a wisdom path, wherein he ultimately became a healer - the Wounded Healer. My path has followed a similar trajectory, just as my soul planned and mapped out in my natal planetary geometry. Pisces is dreamy, creative, mystical, compassionate, and ruled by Pluto, Lord of the Underworld or sub/unconscious mind. Chiron has been traveling through Pisces for much of the past decade, bringing our collective healing journey into the untapped depths of our sub and unconscious minds, ultimately stirring up the muck at the bottom, with an assist from the Pluto/Uranus Square of 2011-2016. (I’ve written much about the Pluto/Uranus Square.) We’ve likely been wildly uncomfortable through this transit because on one level we couldn’t even fathom what was happening within the dreamy surreal Piscean inner landscape and on another level we knew whatever was happening was ultimately for our benefit. It hasn’t felt good to say the least, but the healing’s been happening, evidenced all around us, in all aspects of our evolutionary journey.



And now Chiron moves from this interior, shadowlands scenario into Aries, the first sign of the astrological wheel, where we burst forth into the 3D realm with fire, initiatory energy, ready to conquer any mountain. The ram puts its head down and just GOES. It breaks through any barrier, fueled by passion, carried by its innate powerfully-forward trajectory. I also understand this energy as my Sun (and Mercury) are in Aries. Much of my everyday work in this lifetime is to tame and direct the Aries passion or it simply carries me away, off to fight windmills for the fun of it. Aries is strong, a fearless warrior; in its highest expression, it’s the Emperor in the Tarot. The Emperor is the Yang Divine Masculine, the benevolent leader, the responsible creator, who thinks for the Whole, who provides a safe, grounded container for the collective. The Emperor is mature, a leader who has transcended ego gratification and only thinks in terms of ‘We’. This is most excellent news! As we’ve progressed through Chiron in Pisces, doing our inner healing work both individually and collectively, we’ve readied ourselves for this moment, grown ourselves up as it were, to move into new territory. And so we find ourselves in the broad light of day, where we link arms and move forward together, in transparency, with open hearts, for the good of all, no matter what. No more withholding good from others, no more using our spiritual journey to gain power or the upper hand over others, no more commodifying spiritual wisdom. Everything is now available to everyone. And with the Divine Masculine coming into balance with the awakened Feminine, we get to access the process of creation from both sides of ourselves. As we all have both feminine and masculine energies within us, we get to heal our wounded masculine through our healed feminine and step into being the badass creator gods we came here to be – dreaming from the fertile void of the feminine, grounding into the 3D through the inspired action of the masculine. All in the crystal clear light of a new day in the Age of Aquarius. 



So. Healing will look very different. It already does. We will all recognize that we are our own best healers, and our very best bet is to get quiet and tune inward. We already intuitively know exactly what we need to heal and come into balance. And we will do this work in community, as in I’ll be a loving, safe mirror for you to see yourself and you’ll be the same for me. We’ll truly walk each other home. Sometimes our own best knowing is about intuiting where healing lies for us. I’ve been going to Ojai weekly for acupuncture for the better part of a year and throughout my husband would say, “You’re going to Ojai again? I thought your _______ was better.” And I would still go, week after week, sometimes not knowing why I was going, just that it was right that I was going. And after a pretty good while, I began to understand. I go to Ojai for acupuncture because my Chinese Medicine Doctor (my beloved Tara Matthews at SoulBodyOjai) understands Balance way better than me. She’s fluent in the very subtle language of the body, so each week my body shows her where I’m out of balance and she gently restores it. Week after week. And I’ve never felt better in my life. (My husband has stopped questioning the weekly acupuncture.) 



In this new cycle (essentially a 40 year cycle), we’ll remember the body’s own extraordinary healing powers and the Earth’s innate healing power. We’ll remember the miraculous medicine of plants. We’ll recognize that we are whole, just as we are, and we don’t need that food, dress, car, friend, lifestyle, ______,  in order to feel good about ourselves. We’ll easily see through the illusions the age of Pisces offered up as real life. Absolutely everything will change! In this fast moving Aries energy, we won’t be compelled to look back and reference what has come before. I’ve noticed this of my daughter’s generation since she was very young – they’re not at all interested in the past – they keep their focus firmly forward. What that means for healing modalities I don’t know and I’m excited to find out. What I do know is that healing will be easy and instantaneous. What I also know is that the planetary frequency has upleveled significantly since the last eclipse in January, and there is a clear, pure vibration that appears to be universally available now. It feels quite easy and natural to align to really anything one desires. When I walk my dog, I can easily and quickly attune my frequency to a flower, or tree, the sky, clouds, water, whatever. And it’s normal, familiar and really really nutritious. And what underlies so many of these Nature frequencies is Joy. Just pure simple Joy. I am remembering about Relationship, how absolutely everything is in relationship with everything else. When I walk, my feet are in relationship with my shoes, which are in relationship with the earth. My ears are in relationship with the wind. My breath is in relationship with my lungs and my lungs with my entire body. When I place my attention on these relationships, I feel the golden threads that bind everything together. I feel how if I move my arm just so, the whole field shimmers with delight. It’s quite amazing. And yet completely ordinary.



So I’m pretty excited to be alive right now. Pretty stoked for humans and the earth and all sentient beings. Life is an unspeakably precious gift and I’m so grateful to share it with you.
