I assure you that this feeling of disconnect and &#8216;having no effect&#8217; is the very thing we need to get over; the thing that stands between us and our ability to create our lives, and thus create the world. I would challenge the theory that the solution is to not pay attention to the media or to our responses to what we see. I think we have to do so knowing that we&#8217;re being given a narrative, and teaching ourselves not to simply buy into whatever we&#8217;re being told.<\/p>\n<p>There is a question of, on what level are these geopolitical games really played? Who is making these decisions? Is it governments? Is it individual leaders who are sold out to the dark hierarchy who have no conscious idea what they&#8217;re doing? Is it some force in human nature that&#8217;s inherent, or mutated, or adaptive? Such as fear and greed? Is this all driven by the fear of death? [J.R.R. Tolkien might agree.]<\/p>\n<p>I think that our part in this &#8212; all of this &#8212; is to reach for peaceful interaction with ourselves and those close to us, and to work on the cellular level of humanity, which is ourselves and our immediate environment. That would include all aspects of life, from food to water to work to sex to love to raising children: day to day awareness. I&#8217;m not proposing this in the form of &#8220;pull back from the messed up world&#8221; but rather as an invitation to engage in the world as it is, participate, learn as much as you can about what you think is wrong &#8212; take the time &#8212; and find the means of meaningful participation. We need, I believe, to do this as full-spectrum humans. Not this other thing &#8220;they&#8221; try to make us into.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->If nobody around you is interested, that&#8217;s a clue about where you&#8217;re at, and you may need a different at, and you can get there from here.<\/p>\n<p>The Aries Point event that is now close to full blossom &#8212; Jupiter conjunct Uranus in the first degree of Aries &#8212; is about individual initiation and group initiation. Now they are one and the same thing. For a long time they could work on separate levels. Putting the two together is more like multiplication and less like adding. Individual consciousness is not added to collective consciousness, the two are multiplied by one another.<\/p>\n<p>I am aware that most people don&#8217;t feel ready to shift levels. I cannot speak for you, but I can speak to you: you may be more ready than you think, and being ready may be overrated. This is more about being aware and willing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;to that feeling of powerlessness when world events get so hot, you don&#8217;t now how to respond.
