I just finished working with a client in the Entheos energy work that I do, and the moment opened up following it, with the opportunity to do some writing and sharing here. Right now the energy is so strong for liberation, freedom, and unwinding from the trappings of attachment, ego, and that which veils us from the reaches of Spirit. Today Neptune, planet of illusion and tricks of perception, retrogrades at the beginning of Aries, while Venus and Uranus echo a strong conjunction at the last degree of Taurus 29 (anaretic degree)/ beginning of Gemini. Traditionally this Neptune retrograde points to a time when we lift the veil and peer beyond it; seeing our delusions and addictions more clearly. It’s good for people to seek out therapy services and make honest progress towards overcoming their addictions.

On July 7, Uranus will begin its approximately 7 year long stay in Gemini. That same Gemini fueled Uranus will be in trine with Pluto in Aquarius for a while to come. Resultantly there’s much opportunity to change the way we communicate, and to free ourselves from out-dated concepts and constructs of mind. Underneath the labeling of the mind in terms of naming and conventions there exists a more pure consciousness. One without the trappings of past nor other mental overlays of experience, emotion, and memory. This is a very individual, airy dynamic, this “untouched consciousness.” The Taoists called it “Pu” or the uncarved block, to represent a natural, unforced nature of mind.

The pathway forward can be innovative and liberating, as yet unknown. Its roots run deep, as these changes require us to be deliberate and conscious around our choice for liberation. Our actions will have reverberations for a long time to come. Also, it might require several applications of our divine will to progress. Re-focus again and again into our purpose and marking our intention for liberation.

Change brings with it grief, almost always, because we cannot go back to the old ways–they are permanently severed. What matters is how we “choice forward.” There’s a lot of ways that the majority is not getting what it asked for. It doesn’t look at all like the Golden Age nor any new era of awakening. It looks a lot like the “same old,” old power, oligarchy and the governance of the few with the consolidated power at the top. I guarantee you that inside of you is the place and space where all the most profound changes are happening for this new era. Right now that Venus/Uranus conjunction is in a trine (easy flow/quick) energy with Pluto in Aquarius. This is not a simple day for America. It’s not even a simple celebration that you are either evading or celebrating–or captured in between a dynamic of both positions. If you are drawing from history, there’s a lot of inspiration around overcoming of obstacles, around coming up against powerful despots.

Each individual must choose what path to take into the woods that we are being shown. We are indeed in the woods, on our own journeys: separate but together. The only things that separates us is the way we conceive of and respond to the changes that are taking place. If we can really dial into our resourced place, today, and the days moving forward, it will help. Dial into your point of nourishment.

As you awaken with yourself on this path and journey into unknown lands, deep into making decisions you must make along the way, you will be asked to make it very clear to yourself and others: your purpose. Do not shy away from your inner clarity. Your inner clarity will be your guidebook, but it might even startle you at first. Spend some time journaling today and in the next several days around the following prompts:

1). What actions can I take that help me to explore my freedom today? tomorrow?

2). Where am I too sticky and too attached that is keeping me from seeing my options?

3). If I could embody one important value on this planet, what would I choose? How about now? And now?

Sending peace to all; May love always lead your way. May all beings be free from suffering.
