“We all have and have had hard knocks – truly gutting ones – yet many do not speak of them, they are busy making new life. Do like-wise.” Clarissa Pinkola Estes.
Lorna Bevan – After 3 long weary months of facing and adjusting to the permanently changed post 2020 landscape, get ready for a welcome inrush of fresh air as the Sun and Venus together enter fiery, cardinal Aries at the Vernal Equinox and initiate a new Astrological Year.
When this zodiac cycle began in March 2020, the world was a different place. Since then, every one of us has been tempered by encountering the reality of Impermanence face to face, in what has felt like a global dark night of the soul.
These physical and psychic wounds, this shock to our 21st century complacency and the hard -earned resilience that has been won because of them are forever stitched into the fabric of our journey. But don’t parade around in your Scar Coat……..don’t identify with your suffering – include it. It is a badge of your initiation, individuation and re-commitment to life.
Drink the healing Medicine at Sunday’s Libra Full Moon [March 28] as the Sun conjuncts both Venus and Chiron and a Grand Air Trine forms between Saturn, Mars and the Moon. Beyond the clichéd “wounded healer” label, Centaur Chiron in Aries supports a shamanic process of recovery by healing the soul instead of the psychology, by nudging you to find your own balance between what once was and what could be, and the grace and discernment to know when to either hold on or let go.

“You find the subtle edge between the universal self and your own evolving center. As you keep extending to the far horizon, the synthesis or blend grows richer and finer all the while.
It is only by blending what has previously been polarized that you can begin to make your way. To be here for the changes and the mix is everything. To define and limit is nothing.
You simply have no taste whatsoever for prepared, pre-digested worlds. It has to be dazzlingly inventive and spontaneously revelatory to have any currency in the realm where we are all seeking to bust loose and we take what we find, throw it together, and discover that everything is part of the same thing. And this realization fans a pathway beyond the known altogether.” – Inside Degrees Elias Lonsdale
