    Pluto in Aquarius: A New Era In Collective Evolution | TCM #143 (Part 1)

    Big changes are ahead for humanity as Pluto has entered Aquarius for good over the next 20 years. In this podcast, Laura and Bernhard discuss Pluto in Aquarius from an evolutionary astrology perspective. They discuss how Pluto relates to collective evolution, how evolution exists in two forms (involution and evolution), and how Pluto relates to our collective Karma and soul psychology. They talk about the process that Pluto transits take us through, what the shift from Pluto in Capricorn to Aquarius means for us on different levels, physically, psychologically, and spiritually, how Pluto in Aquarius relates to a struggle against the old worldview and a shift of power, and they discuss how all outer planets (Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus) changing signs in 2025 mark a significant major change for the world and how that will affect us. They also discuss how this relates to a technological revolution, how Pluto in Aquarius relates to the ongoing splitting of humanity, a transfer of power from the bureaucracy to the technocracy and the people, and how Bitcoin and crypto play a part in it. Furthermore, Laura and Bernhard discuss the lessons of Prometheus, and how Pluto in Aquarius relates to us facing our ancient Karma from Atlantis and how it relates to Transhumanism, Black Magic, and hyperdimensional forces - the spirits of darkness that attempt to take over humanity, how a collective “spiritual vacuum” serves as an “entry point” for these occult forces to come in, the major lessons for us, and more. Show Notes Part 1: * The "True Sky" vs. Western Astrology debate * Pluto's role in evolutionary astrology * Involution and Evolution (Destruction and Creation) * Soul Psychology and Pluto as the Lord of the Underworld * We are all alive during Pluto in Aquarius because we all have certain karma to work out, both as individuals and collectives * The necessity to make the darkness conscious and facing difficult truths * Why most people shy away from the process Pluto demands * There are great gifts for those brave enough to descent into the depths of their own personal darkness to face their deepest fears * The Plutonian Death-Rebirth Process * The Law of Descent and Ascent * The division and polarization we see in the world are a reflection of the fracturing in the collective soul or our inner fragmentation * Disembodiment, Trauma, and Head-centric living have created a spiritual vacuum * Pluto is demanding that we face our collective karma regarding Aquarian themes * How Pluto in Capricorn manifested (2008-2024) * Pluto in Capricorn, from an evolutionary astrology perspective, has to do with repression, suppression, and depression * The ultimate lesson of Pluto in Capricorn * The necessity to process the emotional trauma of the past 15 years to have the opportunity to use Pluto in Aquarius for individuation * Pluto in Aquarius presents an opportunity for those individuated souls (Aquarius) to use their creativity (Leo polarity) to help humanity forge a new vision for the future * The polarization in America and the world won't be solved overnight - the splitting of humanity will continue * The increase of subcultures, fringe groups, alternative communities, ideological fanaticism, and cults * Even more significant changes ahead: Neptune in Aries (2025 - 2039) and Uranus in Gemini (2025 - 2033) * Will we develop our INNER TECHNOLOGY instead of just becoming dependent on OUTER TECHNOLOGY? * Will technology evolve into a technocratic dystopian nightmare? Or will this be the dawning of a new golden age? * Trump, Musk, RFK JR. as evolutionary forces in the context of Pluto in Aquarius * The ultimate lessons of Pluto in Aquarius and what to do t...

    Navigating The Timeline Split | TCM #142 (Part 1)

    The world seems to have split into two distinct timelines, two different perceptions of reality. This has become more pronounced since the 2020 Saturn-Pluto conjunction. Polarization in the US seems to be increasing, and as we head into Pluto in Aquarius, this fragmentation may become more pronounced. With Trump getting elected, one side of the US is in mourning, believing that the US is now under a fascist dictatorship where all of their rights are being taken away, while the other side is celebrating what feels like a win for truth, freedom, and humanity. Some people also refuse to get involved in what is going on. They want to be "left alone," so to speak. Many think this is just another "s-election" with two wings of the same bird. Some people take the "non-dual" spiritual bypass, using the higher concept that "all is one" to avoid acknowledging the subjective experience. Another side has become completely "black-pilled," stuck in a doom-and-gloom mindset, prepping for the end times. They can't see any good in what has happened because they see humanity rushing to a transhumanism technocracy with no way out. In this podcast, we discuss the different points of view that we are seeing and how to navigate the ongoing timeline split. We also discuss the major transits and aspects affecting the US, the World, and humanity from an evolutionary astrology perspective, how Saturn-Pluto conjunctions manifest in Psychological Splitting, and more.

This is radical change energy. * Transforming the energy of the existing old world (Capricorn) system. * While many will be grieving the old world they have lost, what happens in the years to come symbolizes what is unfolding in America's destiny. * No politician will ultimately save us. It is WE THE PEOPLE (Aquarian energy), who ultimately save ourselves. * America was founded by a band of rebels and outsiders, and it will be reborn by a band of rebels and outsiders, * Those individuated souls who were willing to think for themselves spoke out and risked being exiled for it carry the template for this next era we are entering * Pluto in Aquarius themes - the light and the dark * We will be seeing a lot of people who will have a really hard time recovering from the intense media propaganda and brainwashing.

    Mastering Emotions Amid Chaos & America’s Election Astrology | TCM #139 (Part 1)

    Many people in the world are becoming increasingly affected by the chaos. We also see how many are dealing with a backlog of suppressed emotions and unconscious trauma based on what happened over the past four years since the plandemic. As we near the US elections, there is a lot of anxiety and fear about the future. There is fear of WW III. What happens here in the US will also affect the whole world. It also affects people unconsciously, even if they don't follow the news, because the intensity of the field of consciousness affects us all. At the same time, positive things are happening as well, such as a bigger focus on health initiated by RFK JR. and Nicole Shanahan, a recent congress hearing on health and childhood chronic disease, and an examination of the influx of chemicals being allowed into our food supply. More and more people are coming together and questioning the official narrative. This crisis has also turned people towards God in various ways. At the same time, many people have also gotten black-pilled, stuck in fear, negativity, and paranoia. In this episode, we'll zoom out and look at what is happening from a bigger-picture astrological perspective. We'll talk about a key transit affecting us as we head into the election and what the final Pluto retrograde back into Capricorn means before it heads back into Aquarius. We discuss how our emotions affect how we see the world and ourselves. We share the four ways most people deal with negative emotions and stress, which keep them trapped in self-defeating and disempowering patterns. We show how to handle stressful situations and transmute negative feelings into positive ones to stay more grounded and aligned with our true selves as we move through this evolutionary process. In the second hour, we do a deep dive into the US astrology. We talk about the natal Pluto and the USA's evolutionary journey, what the US goals are from an Evolutionary Astrology perspective, and how the current political candidates can help or hinder the US in its evolutionary intentions. We look specifically into the natal charts of Donald Trump, RFK Jr., and Kamala and how they relate to the birth charts of the USA in the context of transformational evolutionary energies. Furthermore, we'll discuss wetiko and occult forces in the context of our times, the many misconceptions about wetiko, and the necessity of facing evil within in order to defeat and transmute evil in the world. Show Notes Part 1: * What’s going on right now astrologically * Mars in Cancer - Long Transit * RFK Jr wants to protect children's health and look at the causes of childhood diseases related to Mars in Cancer * The lower and higher expression of Mars in Cancer * Pluto is back into Capricorn - what does that mean? * Pluto in Capricorn cycle 2008 to now * How we can see two extreme sides of Pluto In Capricorn playing out on the world stage * The psycho-spiritual evolutionary lessons * The Pluto in Capricorn polarity point is the big lesson * Our emotions and stress affect how we see the world and how we see ourselves * How most humans deal with negative emotions: repression, suppression, projection, escapism * How do these four coping mechanisms affect the body-mind-spirit complex of a human negatively * The real source of stress and how to deal with it * Stress and the relation to suppressed/repressed emotions * How we unconsciously attract and create events based on our suppressed emotions and repressed shadow * Emotions generate a vibrational energy that influences the people around us * How to transmute and let go of negative emotions without suppressing, repressing, projecting, or escaping them

    How to Raise Your Level Of Consciousness | TCM #138 (Part 1)

    The process of awakening ties into the evolution of consciousness and ultimately into individuation and soul embodiment. The more you are living from essence, your true Self (and not the wounded and conditioned ego personality), the higher your level of consciousness, which affects your everyday life and the reality you experience. In this episode, we discuss how you can raise your level of consciousness in practical terms and become more aligned with your essence and true Self. We use David Hawkins's map of consciousness as a model to explore this topic in more depth. We share the major signs that you are caught in lower states of consciousness and out of integrity, caught in falsehood and how to get out of it, and signs that you are embodying higher levels of consciousness. We discuss how different levels of consciousness manifest in society and different ideologies and how they affect you. We also explore the somatic aspect and how body tension and unprocessed emotions negatively impact your level of consciousness and the way you perceive the world, keeping you stuck in the lower astral. Finally, we’ll give you some practical tools for working with this. In the second hour, we explore spiritual science further and address the questions of where your thoughts really come from and how your level of consciousness determines the field and experiences you attract. We discuss how negative emotions facilitate illness, how all positive emotions tend to cure illness, how negative energy fields affect you, and why it is important to discern who you surround yourself with and what media you consume. We'll also discuss kenosis and the process of "self-emptying" in relation to raising your consciousness. Furthermore, we explore the esoteric concept of A and B influences, which is very important to understand nowadays in the information age, and how higher levels of consciousness relate to a willingness to surrender to God unconditionally. Show Notes Part 1: * Overview of the map of consciousness by David Hawkins [see below - scroll down to view map] * The critical level of 200 * linear vs. non-linear vision * The biggest obstacle to entering higher states of [non-linear] consciousness is the intellect * The critical level for spiritual realization is going above 500 * The supra-mental consciousness based on Sri Aurobindo's work and the map of consciousness * Signs that you are caught in lower states of consciousness, caught in falsehood, and how to get out of it * Moving from lower to higher states requires inner psycho-spiritual work to transmute the lower states [You can't just "think" yourself higher] * Signs that you are embodying higher states of consciousness * Socialism, Communism, and Marxism operate on a very low level of victim/entitlement consciousness * Far-right fascism and religious fundamentalism also operate on a very low level of consciousness rooted in falsehood * Body Tension and how it affects one's state of mind and how one sees the world * Practical suggestion on how to raise your level of consciousness In Part 2 (only for members), we go deeper into: * How all the negative emotions facilitate illness, and all the positive emotions tend to cure illness [based on the map of consciousness] * The importance of letting go of labels and identifications * Where do your thoughts come from, and why “you” don’t “create” thoughts * The importance of meditation and stilling the mind * How your level of consciousness determines the field and experiences you attract * The porosity of the mind

We discuss the main signs that you have a father wound from a psychological and spiritual perspective, how it can affect virtually all aspects of your life, and how to heal it psycho-spiritually.

In the second hour, we'll explore the key masculine archetypes essential for a man to achieve psychological wholeness and how the masculine wound manifests in our current culture and society. We'll discuss how the father complex affects our behavior toward authority figures and our relationships with God. We'll also give you practical tips on how to do shadow work with your father wound. Furthermore, we explore Carl Jung's concept of animus, the male part of the female psyche, and how it manifests in women when they become animus-possessed. We'll look into the four stages of animus, the internal male image that women project on men, and how it relates to the men they attract and are attracted to. Lastly, we give helpful tools on how women can integrate their animus consciously to become whole.
