The Human Race....

....can only be won by realising on a deep level that we are all one.

Mars was conjunct Uranus at  2:16 am local time this morning when most of us here in Aotearoa were tucked up and sleeping. This morning a dense blanket of fog greets the Auckland skyline and has stopped all the ferries and airport departures, offering a beautiful metaphor that suggests it’s a good morning to pull up the covers and stay asleep a little longer protecting us from any more shocks and surprises after a week that has been difficult to digest.

Astrology offers us a lens through which to dissect and find a path through this haze of Neptunian confusion.

The weekends news cycle was insane. All the tension in the world at the moment is exploding in a series of violent exclamations culminating with the murder of 90 Palestinian people sheltering in an assigned ‘safe zone’, the arrest of a serial killer who confessed to 42 recent cases of femicide in Kenya, an assassination attempt on an American presidential candidate and the reporting of a $300 million dollar four month long extended wedding celebration in India to which dozens of the global elite attended and entertained.

We can imagine Mars the God of war meeting Uranus, God of sudden awakenings and revelations in the earthy home of Taurus. Taurus representing our value systems and the earth, when in shadow points towards lavish sensuality in excess.

There are so many reasons to be divided at this moment and I found myself leaving this comment on a social media post last Friday ...

I have several good friends to whom the Earth is flat, many who prefer Sidereal Astrology to Tropical, dozens on both sides of the Covid Mandate debate, a growing number of people who are on Carnivore diets and probably at least a hundred vegans, I have friends who believe in Human induced climate change and many who think it's a conspiracy.

I have friends who prefer to play music in A=440 and friends who play A=432 ..... I won't go into the reasons here, but they are compelling when you listen to them.

Astrologically speaking : we are in a time of acute change ( Mars / Uranus ) against the background of a chronic condition of illusion, confusion and control ( Neptune / Saturn retrograde ).

Our life cycle as a human race has required continual  evolution for our survival. By July 2025 we will have a tremendous acceleration of change markers to integrate with Pluto in Aquarius / Neptune in Aries / Uranus in Gemini / Saturn in Aries.

Talking to my many young friends I realize how deeply we are entrenched in divisive worldviews. On the surface it seems as if there is no hope for us other than to be ‘saved’ by Artificial Intelligence as if we actually believe that machines will make better decisions for sharing resources between races of people?

It would be hard to mess it up more than we have.

I prefer the idea of an evolution in consciousness that will allow us to set aside our focus on individual gains and recognise the underlying connection between on beings on Earth.

Right now there are thousands of people here on Earth experiencing catastrophes of Armageddon proportions.

Evolution occurs through necessity. It can arrive in many different communities  synchronistically and once it starts to develop it will spread throughout the rest of the population.

It will involve the dissolution of borders and boundaries between self and other and develop in communities of people who are forced to rely on each other for survival.

People will realise that when they blame and scapegoat someone they are actually alienating themselves. They will start to see better results from compassionate speech than from righteousness.

I have lost many friends these last few years, good friends, young people, who have passed early. Some took their own lives and some got sick.

There are people right now who are terminally sick. And people right now who are struggling for one reason or another and feeling unsupported.

........ that's why I turn up.

Whatever it is that you can offer, now is the time. If you are doing well, share your wellness. If you are feeling low, reach out and ask for help.

The human race can only be won by realising on a deep level that we are all one.

Blessed be
Kāren

Musical Intervention

I’d love to share a song with you, a song that speaks to some of these thoughts above.

Divinity was captured by the wonderful Cadby Kong and is the title track on the album I released in 2019. The album is also on Spotify if you prefer that platform.
