I am deeply feeling the approaching Chiron/North Node conjunction in Aries. This week and next week the Mercury/Mars conjunction triggers it from Thursday 1/25 through Tuesday 1/30.
At its best Chiron is about healing, Aries is about the Divine Masculine and the North Node is about Destiny.
At its worst Chiron is about wounding, Aries is about violence war and aggression, and the North Node comes along to whack us over the head because we have been collapsing into the South Node for so long we cannot see the Truth.
The South Node in Libra magnifies the shadow of keeping the peace at any cost by sweeping things under the carpet, ignoring and denying shadow, maintaining appearances and thinking the shadow in another part of the world cannot touch us.
Humanity MUST move past the seductive addiction to the Archetype of the Enemy. Othering, dehumanizing, killing and dominating- they are not the path of evolution. They are the path of destruction- as we can see so clearly on the planet right now and for the last 5000 years of patriarchal rule.
The Divine Feminine is the receiver of inspiration and she is the pure open heart. The Divine Masculine is the protector of the Divine Feminine and he takes action based on the inspiration she has received.
We live in an upside down world where we have put the shadow masculine first and we lead with will, ego and aggression. It will lead to the extinction of humanity if we do not find another way.
May all beings be happy and free
May all beings live with a fully open heart
May all beings remember their shared humanity.
Blessed be
~Harmony
P.S. I have more to say on Chiron conjunct the North Node- this is just the beginning. Stay tuned for more.
Faces of the Enemy:
Reflections of the hostile imagination
by Sam Keen
“Start with an empty canvas
Sketch in broad outline the forms of
men, women and children.
Dip into the unconscious well of your own
disowned darkness
with a wide brush and
stain the strangers with the sinister hue
of the shadow.
Trace onto the face of the enemy the greed,
hatred, carelessness you dare not claim as
your own.
. . .
When your icon of the enemy is complete
you will be able to kill without guilt,
slaughter without shame.”
