From Pisces to Aries: Our deepest challenges are LOCAL

April 1, 2025

Please realize: No matter what I put up at any point in this blog, it’s provisional, speculative, a scattering of shots in the dark. WHO KNOWS WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON? Certainly not little old me; and I imagine, not anyone in a human body on this planet. Whenever I use memes, or meme-like configurations, it’s just to illustrate quick moving items that strike me from the floating, swelling, ever-changing waters of change (that was a Pisces remark), and now, more and more, we’re going to be sensing the swelling, cascading, bursting (Aries) fires of death and destruction, which will themselves burst open individualistic seeds of regeneration. But who knows how quickly regeneration will take hold?

Regeneration will take hold as quickly as we take hold of our own lives, notice that we’ve grown complacent, or resentful.

Consciously recognizing that we have given up our sovereignty to others, let us each go for broke and take it back. Become conscious of our self as not just an “ego,” that’s a shell; underneath, inside, each of us is a sovereign soul, powered by the primal fires of the entire universe.

As sovereign souls regenerate, so then we can regenerate togetherness, community.

In small pockets first, likely very small pockets. Like, hopefully, this place, this Green Acres Permaculture Village, which I ignited (being a fire sign myself!) nearly 20 years ago, and which is itself currently undergoing a slowly developing shift to extend and deepen its purpose while also rendering it hopefully more sustainable in the long run.

This coming Saturday, I will be hosting a relaunch lunch meeting of the Green Acres Neighborhood Association, which went dormant after the wonderful woman I worked with earlier on this larger community effort sickened and died. That was at least seven years ago. Meanwhile, I began GAPV as a living template to illustrate how we’d like to see our larger neighborhood evolve — as a series of tiny, interconnected retrofit villages, all “growing community from the ground up.” To this end we host here twice monthly “Community Dinners” with the invite going out not just to neighbors, but to their friends and families as well. At our dinners, someone is always available to give first time visitors a tour of the place, which is at present, three homes with large gardens, chickens, a common patio, a large greenhouse, and a yurt for visitors.

It’s going to become more and more obvious that we must cultivate our own local food sources; that each of us, as a sovereign individual, must dig down into our innermost cores to muster the vision and energy to begin to  work together locally, everywhere, to regenerate this depleted planet. Not an easy prospect here, or anywhere, given the yawning maw of the dragon of “progress”: massive, technocratic, corporate, “smart city” visions and values, which operate under the “get what I can for me and mine” model for the “elite,” while aiming to stealthily transmogrify us “deplorables” into basically controllable robots.

Sovereign Individuals, unite!

 

Our new world begins yesterday. GET, AND REMAIN, PRESENT, PLEASE!

March 31, 2025

Just prior to 8 AM EDT, yesterday, March 30, nebulous, dreamy Neptune drifted subtly into Aries, for the first time in 165 years, starting an entirely new zodiacal cycle since way way way before anyone alive now was born. This is brand new folks, never before experienced; and it will take awhile for its effects, inspiring (Neptune)  individual initiative (Aries) to become utterly obvious. Meanwhile, even People magazine has noted this zeitgeistian shift.  

Whew! We’re all connected. We sure do know that, thanks to the internet, and Neptune’s latest passage through the final, morphing-into-oneness sign of Pisces, it’s own sign, where it feels at home. Dreamy, ultra-sensitive, empathic Neptune does not feel at home in pugnacious Aries. Yet here we are!

 

This once in about two lifetimes ingress occurred yesterday, at around 8 AM EDT. Notice that communicative Mercury, traveling backward and now in Pisces, had just crossed Neptune’s position. So this IS a big deal, even widely publicized (cf People magazine).

 

Lest we get too excited about this new creative (hopefully) ignition of individuals who, instead of acting, have been waiting for someone else to pick up the ball . . . victims waiting to be saved (oh yeah, very Neptunian), individuals are beginning to wake up, to shake themselves loose from the miasmic fog we’ve recently become highly aware of. All this, thanks to the internet, and specifically, to Elon’s X.

Here are a few obvious indications, from someone noticing how current “news” stems from equally deceptive roots in the last few years.

Add to this, for the past two months, DOGE, ripping the scales from eyes that still would much rather to keep them closed, and forced to resort to hate, in order to continue to pretend to do so.

Here’s one version of a giant generalization, one attempt to embed all our thinking about what we have been discovering in a larger, institutional context.

The implications if all this surging discovery reach forwards and backwards, disturbing especially, the cultural paradigm all our thinking processes have been forcefully framed within (thanks to education’s indoctrination) by hidden “powers that be” for decades, centuries . . .

Leading to questions like . . .

Yeah. I can’t watch any film now, because who knows what nefarious behavior the “actors” within it (not to mention the DEI traces that now infect anything made up out of thin air), have been engaged in. And it’s not that I feel “holier than thou;” rather it’s because I simply can’t stomach hypocrisy when it involves corruption of any kind.

So then, thanks again, to Elon’s X, mainstream news is passing into oblivion, as more and more, readers are getting their info/disinfo/misinfo from all sorts of sources, forced to begin to discern, rather than to passively absorb.

Notice BTW, the demographics of X. Velly interestink!

So X users can’t help but ask . . .

So then, I wonder, and I am not alone, thank goodness . . . and thank goodness, it is the young people who are thinking in concert with this 82-year-old American woman who, much to her dismay, woke up with the Kennedy assasination back in 1963, eyes glued to the television, two young toddlers at my feet.

Give the explosive continuous thrust of upcoming April, I do sense that maybe (hopefully no more than) 5% more will be forced to open their sleepy eyes. If only 5% in the near term, then maybe we do have a chance of averting civil war (the last Neptune transit through Aries started in 1861, coinciding with the start of the Civil War).

Key for the current 5-10% now awake: be there for your friends and relatives, as they begin to open their eyes. They will need your calm presence (which many of us have gained, thanks to Neptune’s 14-year transit through Pisces!)
