Then, you said polytheistic, and that seemed like a better word for the same thing.<br /><br />When I called my local shop to see whether they want you to come do a talk, they said their big focus is "transitions," and that this is what people are interested in right now. So, I guess if you wanted to brand yourself, it could be something about graceful transitions, or transitions that honor the gods, or something like that.<br /><br />Just as any single neuron in the brain has no idea what thought it is a part of at a particular moment (it just gets kicked and then kicks the next one down the line), none of us knows what collective thought we are helping to enact.Kenna Jnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30912075.post-86003646498103010872013-02-05T19:01:35.656+00:002013-02-05T19:01:35.656+00:00This is hands down the most interesting and though...This is hands down the most interesting and thought provoking piece on astrology I've read in oh, forever and a day.<br /><br />I love the way you've taken the approach out of the subjective ego-driven 'psycho analytic' pool and handed it back to the forces which drive us all.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01743527086655456100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30912075.post-28251021167492755532013-02-01T14:54:30.804+00:002013-02-01T14:54:30.804+00:00You are really good on Pluto, DR.

It is you "explaining" yourself and in doing so liberating many things, for you and others.<br />No problem with Astrology not being a "science". Our definition of science is evolving all the time and we know it is not a precise knowledge but a symbolic approximation to certain aspects of reality through a particular, limited view, that of the Method employed. Other forms of knowledge are as needed, valueable and as "certain" and probalby closer to the truth than that of science. <br />What matters is the connection among souls. How it comes across; ie. through a session of politeistic evolutionary astrology or otherwise is just a means to and end. In my view, the honest person (like the cowhearder) that is willing to connect and accompany others in their paths has won (whatever there is to be won), hands down.<br />Cheers,<br />NicMagic Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03058470485175140238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30912075.post-44136166495625140572013-01-31T17:38:48.608+00:002013-01-31T17:38:48.608+00:00Great job opening up for all of us!

I like how you acknowledge the mythology of the gods and our connection as part of their evolution. My daughter has opened a door for me to go beyond the Greek and Roman gods to more ancient ones. Another adventure. More now to talk about and discover.

They are not incarnate, and sometimes will demand things that are pretty well impossible on the earth plane. Mine seem to forget I need money to exist for instance :-) A very psychic woman I knew once told me her guides often told her to go out and meditate at 3 in the morning...trouble was, it would be minus 5 degrees centigrade at that time, and she said she would have to bargain with them - I won't go now, but I'll stay longer tomorrow- that sort of thing. I think that if you have hard or difficult aspects of important personal planets to outer planets there will be some sort of survival struggle...I think it means that those energies may come to you unmediated, sometimes too strongly, and often without a sense of compassion.

I think astrology and the transpersonal psychologies are a pretty good fit. i.e, this is happening to you--uniquely and very personally, but there is no reason to take it personally. The 'stars' don't personally take on anyone, they don't victimise--they don't even know who you are.
