Diary Post is intended to serve as an ongoing updated collection of snippets of astrological information relevant especially to when they are uploaded but also regarding astrological insights in general.
Not a daily diary at all. Just spontaneous outbursts in various fonts!
Diary Posts will vary in length with latest on top. Any longer research will be posted as normal as a dedicated entry on the blog
As yet the only publicised face of the paedophile network is Danny Lee Huber [deceased] |
Huber's birthdate has several Cancer placements: Sun Mercury Venus which elevates the range of expressions available in the Cardinal sign group - adding Capricorn Aries and Libra as likely alternations in his expressions.

- Saturn and Neptune - and using this topic to illustrate the significance of retrograde periods [this one got published by Astrodienst -my first submission to the site
- Also here recently is a short but deep dive recent work on Venus. [noting factors such as Star Points and the significance of Venus at 29 Libra on Oct 22 -and how significant Venus is overall in 2022
- Nuclear force In recent days in the context of the Russian war against Ukraine I looked at resonating factors from Chernobyl as the closest parallel to what might happen -not a reaclear reactor event but Putin delivering on his threat to use nuclear force against Ukraine. This work is appended to the larger 2022 post on nuclear events in Japan especially 1945.
We think we're small but this graphic from Universe Today shows the compact little grey powerhouse called Pluto in comparison
In showing this it is made clear how important the period from squre to square is -from East to West quadrature [squares to Sun] because this is the time frame when a planet is most influential on us/Earth.
From an astrological perspective the standout indicator of the resonance between these 2 periods is the transit of Pluto
Pluto was late in Cancer from 1936 until entry into Leo began in 1937 but due to retrograding did not leave Capricorn fully and enter Leo until June 1939.
The opposing position of Pluto in Capricorn at 27 degrees has been relevant since February 2022 and in the context of the Ukraine invasion.
Pluto was at 27 Cancer multiple times in the late 1930s: from 1935 to 1938
This post looks at the March New Moon chart the chart of Ukraine and that of Putin
THE INVASION OF UKRAINE -SOME NOTES ON PREVAILING FORCES
February 2022 has witnessed since the 24th a progressive invasion of Ukraine by Russia under direction of President Putin.
The world at large has responded within the context of Sun Jupiter Neptune in Pisces with considerable support and compassion. This protective energy resonates with the inherent beneficial placement of Jupiter in Ukraine's natal chart of 24 August 1991.
Feb 20 2022
Reports in recent weeks from Argentina of deadly cocaine contaminated with drugs of a potency more suitable as elephant anaesthetic confirm the elevated risk under the Jupiter-Neptune convergence in Pisces.
Aside from the risks posed by elemental water in the environment and Neptunian contagion/contamination on the levels of biology and the mind –the issue of drug overdose and drug toxicity or poisoning looms extra large in the period noted below. Recreational and pharmaceutical drugs are all relevant here.
Jupiter has correspondence with the liver in the body and this organ is vulnerable to overload and ultimately a fatal outcome from any substance [alcohol also] that places unsustainable demands on the body
Extra attention is needed to be aware of anyone at risk of Neptunian overload – both bodily and on a mental level during March 2022
The Jupiter-Neptune midpoints in Pisces began as early as February 2021 and so have been “live since then - but 2022 –January to May is when the full force of this combination accumulates –both being direct – and already Jupiter fully entered into Pisces very late in December 2021.
Next is the effects of this combo being potentised by the Sun in March when
Sun is conjunct Jupiter March 5
Sun conjuncts Jupiter-Neptune midpoint March 10
Sun conjuncts Neptune March 13
Jupiter ranges 14’50 to 17 Pisces over those 8 days = 2 degrees
Neptune from 22’33-22’53 = less than half a degree.
The wider orbs would include;
14-18 degrees being extra sensitive for Jupiter and 21-24 for Neptune –the full range giving 14-24 Pisces lots of susceptibility from March 1st for 2 weeks.
This will also affect 14-24 in any mutable sign.
Generationally this includes most relevantly:
mid to late 1960s Uranus and Pluto both in Virgo
mid 1970s to early 1980s Neptune in Sagittarius [in most cases] and may express for both as a heightening of ideals as well as delusions.
A mistaken belief that there no limits can permeate the minds of the 1960s cohort –along with trying to claim back power due to a mistaken perception of disempowerment by larger forces. Protest actions against pandemic protections in NZ Canada & Europe show these themes.
The Neptunian cohort beginning mid 1970s faces perhaps the most vulnerability to deception misperception delusory ideas and beliefs under the combined effects of Jupiter and Neptune squaring their natal Neptune during March 2022.
These factors added to the Uranian impulses generated under the solar month of Aquarius –with added input from Uranus and Saturn in January-February 2022 - suggest that by March the mental patterns attached to non-reality are set to intensify especially within the first 2 week period.
An even more powerful convergence of Jupiter and Neptune dominates April 2022 and will be noted in greater detail in due course.

Latest long post on the threat of invasion and attack
The threat of invasion and attack being currently [February 2022] applied to the situation faced by the nation of Ukraine under military duress from neighbouring Russia can be seen as applicable to the world at large within the larger shared collective experience of the coronavirus pandemic since 2020.
We know the Jupiter –Saturn conjunction of December 2020 holds long-term significance as a new cycle in social as well as political developments and that in the context of the pandemic - this conjunction being in Aquarius - huge impacts have occurred as a result of the restraints on social activity – as well as from the easing up of social distancing.
Threat and invasion of the biological kind have manifested in numerous global locations from early in 2020 – though the early signs of the pandemic inception can be said to have predated the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction by at least a year so this story of threat and invasion clearly has a fundamental driver that carries the overall themes intensely.
Pluto strongly resonates with the archetype of the threat-bearing invader the Intimidator –and during the period of Saturn in Aquarius has crystalised into groups who both feel intimidated [and protest about that] – and who subsequently intimidate others in a knee jerk response...
Feb 13 2022
The socio-economic chaos unfolding in diverse global locations in week 2 of February 2022 has seen typical Aquarian/Uranian rejection of rules [Saturn] during the period of the ongoing square between Saturn and Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus. The double-whammy effect of these two synergising Earth and Air energies while being each representative of Earth and Air shows the degree of intensity unfolding in the outpouring of rejection against restrictions.
Even a 5 degree offset from an exact square has not been enough to lessen the potency -and this can be explained by a few added factors.
1. The Sun is in Aquarius during the first part of February making both Saturn [old rulership] and Uranus [modern rulership] wake up and show characteristic dispositions.
2. Saturn conjuncted the Sun at very close approach to 16 Aquarius late on February 4 [Universal Time] Uranian Aquarius had to face Saturn in another context that day - as detailed in the Feb 10 entry below - when 40 satellites freshly orbiting Earth were dragged from their gravitational orbit [Saturn] by the force of an incoming solar storm energy field.
[A solar storm has fixed energies of Leo-aquarius]
Back here on Earth -in Canada New Zealand and Paris France - people antagonistic towards public safety measures re Covid began to increasingly face penalties consequences arrest by the end of week 2 when political and Police authorities in all 3 of those locations reached the point of saying:
You have the right to protest but not to gridlock a city
and imperil others in the community
Philosophers and spiritual teachers have a decent track record of trying to school humanity around the nature of Freedom and the common piece of wisdom - clearly aligned to rational experience - is that there is no such thing as freedom disconnected from responsibility.
This level of understanding the integral nature of things is clearly represented when an astrological template is overlaid.
Responsibility is Saturn
Freedom is Uranus and Jupiter
The Saturn mindset is inherent in the structuring of society. Its energy field is the past: "This is the way it always has been" and maintaining the status quo -though ambition/goals are also part of the Saturn structuring approach.
The Jupiter mindset expresses in our desire to expand explore and grow/develop - whether physically materially mentally experientially spiritually. This energy is future-focussed.
The Jupiter disposition is found in people who view life as largely without boundaries - a nice life if you can get it - except it just isn't real [and here Jupiter shows its traditional link to Pisces]
Life on this planet in this physical dimension will always manifest boundaries no matter how "free" you believe you are.
The Uranian mindset is born of pursuit of the new - the urge to change/reform/reinvent/modernise - because these are "better" than what is.
Uranian energy is even more future-focussed than Jupiter and more extreme in pursuit of the revolutionising of society through technology and radical or advanced/vanguard ideas which will supposedly 'free humanity" from past physical material archaic conditions -and anyone representative of those -such as governments and rule-makers/enforcers.
In order to keep these polarised forces in check there is an elegant solution in place:
Saturn has a cycle with Jupiter and a separate cycle with Uranus
These graphics below show an actual positioning of Jupiter and Saturn during their shared cycle of angular relationships - and the schematic view which shows the standard positioning of the angles
We know that Jupiter and Saturn conjuncted in December 2020 effectively a New Moon type of event - new seeds planted to infuse social conditions during the new 20 year cycle.
The conjunction was in Aquarius -effectively serving as the first big signal of much social conflict over how to best be a citizen a group member in society a fellow human and we know this energy heralded in the social conditions of the Covid era. A year has passed by early 2022 and it is Saturn engaging with Jupiter that is bringing things to a head but things aren't finished between Saturn and Jupiter: the next critical stage is the 90 degree right angle/square
Richard Nolle's Astropro is a handy reference re paired planetary cycles:
The extract below for the Jupiter-Saturn square shows in the 10 month period 2024 to 2025 Jupiter in Gemini-Cancer is square to Saturn in Pisces-Aries. Currently being far off from the contexts of that period it is not easy without further focus on the actual period to select from the range of potentials to anticipate which is most likely to manifest.
This phase is about testing the viability around whatever rebalancing has been achieved since December 2020 re Saturn and Jupiter in societal contexts . Saturn's social structuring around governance and economy and Jupiter's focus on cultural developments will play out in terms of both goverment policies and social trends in reference to the energies commonly linked to some or several of those zodiac signifiers noted above.
The Saturn-Uranus square was in 2021 at 13 Aquarius-Taurus - so 13 fixed is a sensitive point in the period from 2021 until the next big angle: several decades are to pass before the opposition arises in 2056 - Aries-Libra.
Look at any periods where the Sun adds emphasis -eg early May 2022 looks significant economically - in advance of the early August 2022 pile-up of Uranus-Mars on the North Node and the August full moon squared by Uranus.
Saturn in Aquarius is within touching distance of all those points and so lends a big flavour of struggle still likely regarding the wheels of commerce still not adequately rolling in order to avert further economic downtrends. This could still involve airlines internet commerce and supply chains.
Saturn got to 13 Aquarius for the final pass in week 2 January 2022. Uranus goes to 13 Taurus again in week one April 2022 - also the final pass over this point in this cycle.
At early February 2022 New Moon phase the Sun in Aquarius also reinforced Saturn at 13 degrees. This re-emphasises the containment of groups - especially protesting groups and can be problematic for various things Aquarian [eg Starlink satellites, electricity supply] Expect some further upheavals early in April from Uranus due to the resonance factor with the 2021 exact square to Saturn. The socio-economic aspect is likely to be significant then -due to that theme being otherwise highlighted in synch with Saturn [conjunct Venus late March 2022]

February 10 2022
Elon musk's SPACEX took the gamble of launching 49 satellites into near earth orbit on Feb 3 2022 right when the Aquarian Sun [almost 15 degrees] was applying a one degree orb to Saturn [almost 16 degrees]
This combination in itself reflects not only Saturnian space ambitions [corporate high flyer literally] but also the potential for Saturn to show it's problematic side - failure - in conjunction with the Sun being extra influential in the space domain when solar activity is more active.
Dr Tamitha Skov points out a tweet showing the geomagnetic field relevant to the time period after the Feb 3 launch
It seems the space cowboys need to realise that Space is different from Earth
Here's the launch chart on Feb 3 with midpoint grid.
In a tight chart like this with a very compressed array of energies - across just a few signs and houses - midpoints will always be valuable sources of information.
The balance between dreams or visions [Neptune] and physical reality [Saturn] seem strongly contrasted in this chart
Neptune has also been abetted here by Pluto. Pluto explains the mass death of 40 satellites in a Neptunian context related to Aquarian goal/ambition.
Saturn Neptune Pluto all have a lot to say about this launch...while the typical suspect Uranus is square but widely off Sun-Saturn but does loosly lick up Mars and Jupiter by angle -obviously contributing because hey this is the era when Uranus is wrecking a lot of Taurus.
The number of activated planets and strong themes pay testimony to the significance of this event both in scale and in relevance for future space projects.
The satellites were knocked out on February 4 just a day after launch.
In itself the rapid demise of this project also reflects the quantity of adverse factors at play.
This Reuters report gives good backgroud info
Overall a very sobering message for space pioneers who don't do enough meaningful homework
Some of the standout synergies in this event include:
MC = Neptune Pluto
and Mars-Chiron on MC
Pluto =Sun-Venus & Sun-Mars and Mars-Saturn -which all connect to Mercury-Pluto
Several of the Capricorn positions meet at around 17-18 giving a sexrile to the Pisces Moon [ more Neptune ! ]
But Mercury-Jupiter is also on Saturn
Venus-Moon on the Sun
Venus-Neptune on Saturn
Jupiter-Pluto very close to Saturn
With my ongoing astrological study of extreme weather this event grabbed my attention with commentary around how solar storms...
cause the atmosphere to warm and atmospheric density at our low deployment altitudes to increase. [Feb 8 2022 Spacex press release].February 9 2022
Neptune has been carrying considerable potency since the station direct occurred on December 1 2021 accompanied by a tight trine to Mars in Scorpio = very energized heated water molecules.
What is clear early in 2022 is that Neptune paired with Mars is driving a lot of patterns that involve water plus heat.
What is clear is that an initial pattern can be reinforced/sustained/extended when extra planetary energy is added into the mix.

February 1 2022
today my astro-neurons fired when I read a reference to:
the economy overheating
I pulled up a sequence of latest bulletins when I saw this was a zeitgeist:
and the players in this are immediately clear and worth noting.
Economy is one of those old Capricornian concepts and Venus is the physical/material manifestations of money/cash/assets.
Venus has been in Capricorn since Nov 5 2021 [London time]
Heating has a strong association with Mars.
Mars has brought further heat into the global economy once it entered Capricorn on January 24 2022.
Overheating is a combination of Jupiter added to Mars and this occurs by sextile on February 4 2022
So it seems likely that energies are locked into this pattern by February 4 - a week after Venus reached a return to Direct -outward emphasis - and soon to be pursued by a now pumped-up Mars running at a hotter temperature - and the pair reach their exact conjunction - on February 18 2022...
but this isn't the end point - the 2 are so closely magnetically bound at a subatomic level that they maintain a very unusual long duration synergy in Capricorn for weeks...

A longer post evolved in a role both as a cheerleader for astrology and to put astrology into a larger context:
January 20 2022
We're living through very complex times - and feeling this is backed up by evidence of the intensity of planetary interactions that are being dispersed through our local solar system.
In addition to prior entries here the early months of 2022 have even more to deliver: this entry looks at the unusually long meet-up of Venus and Mars. Both of these being energies that signify how we express ourselves in our relating/relationships - there's an equivalence in the Chinese concepts of Yin and Yang -the 2 balancing forces that exist in all dynamics and polarities - but in Western terms these tend to be given defined gender -Venus female and Mars male. We are now seeing that it's not so rigid - that we all contain a mix of both no matter what our assigned gender is.
Women in the West have clearly embraced more Mars [confident assertive initiating] energy during the decades of feminism - while still wanting to keep the best of being female. The Venus goddess look is very en vogue these days - beauty and glamour but now with grit.
Men have been a lot slower to embrace the blending but the signs are there amongst younger males that embracing female roles and pursuing the body beautiful are part of this growing process.
Where does it end? Far more androgyny is likely to emerge during a phase where extreme female and extreme male archetypes try to hold onto that far end-of-the-spectrum position: eventually that gap will close to a far greater homogeneity and the gender wars will be ancient history.
This philosophical/evolutionary musing about Venus and Mars is not the major point about the 4 weeks from February 10-March 14 period when these two planets are very very close together every day every hour between the positions 12 Capricorn to 7 Aquarius.
This is highly unusual. The 1992 Venus-Mars conjunction in Capricorn and early Aquarius was this close for only 5 days. They were in Capricorn together in 1965 -but no conjunction -always widely apart. The 2024 period of Venus in Capricorn sees Mars come within 5 degrees briefly near the end. Pfftt!
This one is worth watching then but there's little to compare it to so standard expectations are in the mix.
In personal private matchups of Mars and Venus where 2 different chemistries cause mutual sparks the Capricorn factor indicates being attracted to an older partner or love interest - who may/or may not have a stable mature or wise energy and may or may not be a high-ranking person in society - or at least a successful person in management business or politics.
Everyone fitting one or more of those criteria suddenly becomes more sought after and attractive under these influences.
Older males and females who have any of the added extra personal-inner or societal-outer attainments are endowed with extra charisma during the period outlined -and this aura grows to peak strength at the start of March surrounding the New Moon due to both Venus and Mars together catching up with Pluto - the very intense obsessive force which signifies power games.
March 2-4 will be unbelieveable for those who can reap the best of all this energy.
Because Capricorn energy signifies a range of examples of "older people who have things under control" in general that category represents the bosses and politicians in our society.
One older male politician looking very much impacted by the prevailing energies around Feb 10 is UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson
The writing is definitely on the wall for him but not in the love department -as his own personal factors are telling another story: born when Jupiter and Neptune opposed from 15'44 Taurus to 15'24 Scorpio [a testimony to all of his flaws of excess exaggeration and looseness] -The end of January into early February [ sees the carrier of the scythe -Saturn - reach those degrees at a 90 degree angle from Aquarius. Boom!
Saturn is the taskmaster that places all the demands on Capricorn people and everyone symbolically Capricorn [bosses politicians high achievers] Saturn makes the final judgement as to whether the scales are even or terribly unbalanced.
Boris Johnson meets that deliberation most likely from the Saturn voice of society while Saturn transits Aquarius. Conversely the judgement of his peers -a political vote being lost.
Either way the broad consensus will be: Begone!
As for Venus and Mars - they come to the home position in Johnson's chart [IC] at nearly 13 degrees Capricorn in week 2 of February. This may be when it's packup and goodbye to 10 Downing St.
Other manifestations of the tight Venus-Mars pairing do generally surround business politicians governments so expect lots of relationship forming mergers partnerships in those contexts in February into March though Pluto can go either way -intense boding or annihilating destruction.
With multiple other factors potentially in the mix dependent upon an individual person's own energy [as the Boris Johnson example clearly shows] there is a lot of scope for things to come to a head one way or another -either productively and beneficially or leading to a falling out and breakdown in relationship.
Capricorn's ideal attainment over a lifetime is maturity stabilty wisdom and a protective paternal/maternal disposition. It literally can take a lifetime to cut through the impediments obstructing that most important inner attainment - often left until after the need for diversion into outer symbols of success have been met and satisfied.
Venus and Mars together in Capricorn asks those most affected by this pairing of energies to act responsibly with restraint caution and wisdom - and various political situations bubbling away globally have a clear need for this wherever confrontational [Mars] circumstances are in process [eg Russia-Ukraine-US]
The highest risk period will be early March with Pluto in the mix -where some power brokers may be incapable of the ideal Capricorn response even if the opportunity is there to evolve their natural instincts instead of choosing war. The urge to dominate and annihilate politically using force is strong at that time.
Another arena for all this powerful energy at the start of March is the business sector and specifically banking & finance - where the potential for meltdowns and wipeouts is worth preparing for with Capricornian risk-averse actions in advance.
2022 is not starting off quietly.
January 16 2022
Looking at January 2022 the standout factor is Uranus being virtually at a standstill for the whole month.
This lingering situation around 11 degrees Taurus affects all fixed natal and transiting positions at 11 degrees and trines all Earth signs at 11 degrees as well as while at 11 degrees Uranus is resonant with the semi & sequi positions at 26 degrees.
And it is clear that we need to flip back to December 2021 and what was happening for virtually the whole month too as Uranus retrograded back under 12 degrees heading for 11 by the time December started.
Deep processes were underway then even during late November and continue to linger in January 2022 -especially because in December the full moon at 27 Gemini locked in a close semisquare orb with Uranus 11 Taurus orb - the exact angle being 26 Gemini here. This makes the 26-27 Gemini natal house position relevant to what Uranus is shifting within you.
We know Taurus is things values money property security pleasures.
We know Uranus is sending the sort of energy that promotes changing any or all of those things.
One of my responses spontaneously carried out last week was a much bigger declutter than had already been gradually underway.
This one over several hours over several days was both decisive and indicative of a clear separation from prior attachments -stuff belonging to others not in my life [unhappy associations].
The process isn't complete and the energy remains strongly alive but exhaustion did cause me to pace myself and have a break period.
Uranus in transit house position is clearly relevant as well but not solely on its own -paired with the opposing house the issue is around resolving 2 aspects of expression or realms of activity and trying to find the right proportion or balance of focus on one or the other: this means that Uranus going through 11 has a connection to Uranus as if it were also going through the 5th. Somewhere digging through the options for both of those houses lies the correct polarity being explored - elements of collective [11th] juggled with personal [5th] or is friendship the right option -versus the greater closenesss of a 5th house connection? Time will tell.
Look at Venus too -currently manifesting matters arising through Uranus in Taurus is still Earthy in Capricorn and stays there till March 6 -around 4 months in total.
Venus was stationary retro at the December full moon mentioned earlier -and in close contact with Pluto -one degree of separation which soon closed to anexact pairing of these energies at Xmas. Intense - but likely quite suberranean stuff being processed with the impulse from a near Earth retrograde plus Pluto's favourite way of keeping stuff under control -shoving it down deeper.
The next period of note for this combo of energies has been mid January - a volcanic eruption in the South Pacific territory of the Tongan Islands in the evening of January 15 -just as Uranus [earth changes] is at its slowest -days from exact stationary Direct and slightly in advance of the Sun becoming conjunct with Pluto at 26.5 Capricorn.
Rocks rained down on roofs in local settlements and tsunami effect has been widespread far from the event location.
Even for a reasonably close observer of natural forces like me...this one came as a surprise in terms of the potency - but the planets tell the story: Pluto...on the scene along with Uranus [both of these in elemental form were nuclear bomb-making materials used against Japan in WW2]
Soon after mid January... Venus in middle degrees of Capricorn is exact semisextile Saturn at around 13'40 Aquarius which in this context will likely indicate the economic hardship faced by the affected communities.
2022 -beginning of August -Uranus has a big role to play - but Neptune/Pisces water energy is very strong.
In Chinese Feng shui which is a system based on natural elemental balancing - the Year of the Tiger in effect from February 1 is a Water Tiger year - big water and though a repeated challenge look particularly at March and April where the water energy really accumulates.
Dry land will get some relief if able to absorb deluges- allowing good vegetation growth - but we know too much water is often a destructive force
The fixed signs Taurus and Aquarius held by Uranus and Saturn also activate Leo-derived = solar radiated Fire = environmental heat/combustion will also repeatedly be a challenge in 2022
January 4 2022
In the era of Pluto in Capricorn -when all of us are being pressured to mature or at least grow up in some way the Venus Pluto in Capricorn synergy from the end of week one December 2021 - then followed by Mercury Venus Pluto in the last days of 2021 stretched further into the early days of 2022 as a Venus-Mercury combo with Pluto on their midpoint.
Hands up if you went a little crazy !
By Jan 4 if you recalibrated yourself well enough the effects will be waning.
With such a strong emphasis on Capricorn the enrgy naturally spreads to the whole sign group which contains Aries Cancer and Libra as well.
These four Cardinal groyp signs are all all about relation - Aries to self Cancer to family Libra to partners or partnerships and Capricorn to society - so any one or more of those contexts are likely to have been the personal focus of the strong Capricorn energy from early December 2021.
This was one potent humdinger of intense energy -first affecting either or both of Venus' fields of influence -Libra relationships and Taurus attachments - people things money security and what you value as well as how to balance out both of those.
Then Mercury entered the mix adding way more mental stimulation - I personally [with Mercury ruled Gemini Asc ] felt close to manic in my stringing of words and ideas - but I have a natural medicine qualification so that came in handy calming the system down.
At 25 Capricorn these combos squared my Neptune and sextiled my Sun also -while transiting the 8th.
It won't have been as intense if you had nothing natal being aspected or usually easier with a trine or sextile -and less intense outside of the 8th house -but aside from that - everyone on planet Earth has had these energies in a big dose.
They carried not only Capricornian energy but also Saturn's current placement in Aquarius - so we are being asked not only to use Capricorn energy in the ideal mature/adult/parental/supportive/mentoring/guiding or even peak achievement/mastery way - all of which are keywords for a well-formed Capricorn principle - but also to apply that in response to collective and community contexts.
This is totally clear in the context of Covid where restrictive mandates ask us to act for the common good, think of others, do what serves the collective benefit, think of community instead of self interest - and most of the world is placed in this gripping situation still at the start of 2022 - and worsening in primarily the Northern Hemisphere - since it all unfolded 2 years ago.
Given such a globally significant theme it is absolutely clear how meaningful the message is for humanity - a huge collective shift is being demanded in order to rebalance the cultural trends which need a shift away from me me me me at the expense of others me at the expense of community and family or me at the expense of other species and me at the expense of our shared social and natural environments.
The planet is teaching us all these things through Covid and through the intensifying climate events. What we have trashed and abused and debased is now having its turn to take much more obvious control over our lives.
When eventually the Covid crisis has run its course in this decade the natural elements will continue to frequently manfiest their intense patterns.
My research on extreme weather shows that the 2020s will demand a lot of us in terms of adapting to and dealing with wind water fire and processes in the land.
This situation requires that we shift now to a more collective mindset - commitment to being a responsible member of a community - because that is how we will deal best with what arises. Being ready and willing to do whatever a situation demands to help others.
