“Let the Healing Begin”
~By Isaac George

Greetings!

​




"The body is everywhere assaulted by all of our new media, a state which has resulted in deep disorientation of intellect and destabilization of culture throughout the world. In the age of disembodied communication, the meaning and significance and experience of the body is utterly transformed and distorted.” - Eric McLuhan

“So much of the sickness is in our heads” – Eric Clapton

Presence, Bliss, Tranquillity.  They are qualities of experience and states of being to be sure, but they do not arise only in the ethereal planes of awareness.  They can exist while we are in embodiment as well. Carrying on from last week’s theme about our letting go, this coming weekend, and the early part of next week will afford us ample opportunities for accessing more of our divinity, while in our embodiment.  This Monday-Tuesday, we get a breather, a blessing…a Full Moon in the expansion and dreamy sign of Pisces. Already we’re experiencing the forerunners.  Strange or magical dreams and night-time dramas, restless sleep and bouts of feeling lethargic and tired, and a sense that one is walking in a fog bank. It will be helpful to reflect on these myriad states we’re entering before the exact moment of the Full Moon.  That occurs at 00:54am British Summer Time. Subtract 5 hours for America’s East Coast, and 8 hours for the West. Hence why this lunation crosses over a day/night boundary.

This space will be super important to take advantage of, as the planetary and energetic aspects that unfold shortly.  Next week there are some more intense energies afoot…mostly from Thursday onwards.  We get a few little breaks in the action, until Mercury turns retrograde in Libra on September 27th.  The real action will begin on October 1st, and reign through the whole month. But I get ahead of myself.

I inserted the quote from Marshall McLuhan’s son Eric as a reminder of why this Full Moon is so different than our abnormal digitized state of perception on the planet.  This is an opportunity to connect or reconnect more deeply with our divine spark within. Whether you refer to it as your Higher Self or something else does not matter so much. You and that which is eternal are always together, always equals, and share a common awareness.  No separation whatsoever!  But in today’s world we may feel very hard-pressed to feel and know that Presence on a moment-to-moment basis.  Now is a good time to re-establish the Foundation of your Being in the ways you feel drawn to do so.

The Eric Clapton quote is from the interview he did about his adverse injuries after having had the AZ jabs and having Covid anxiety prior to his accepting the jabs and after. Very honest and courageous man, and an amazing musician whom I’ve followed since 1966.  I include it here to illustrate the (scientifically verified) fact of how we can be made to feel ill from just our thoughts and/or emotions, or from taking in toxic ideas from outside ourselves. This is about more than being a hypochondriac. One type of this condition is called psychogenic illness, and it can spread to millions of people in a matter of days or weeks...as we have seen.

With Sun in Virgo and Moon in Pisces, the themes of healing arise, especially emotional and psychic pains or wounds.  Allow your feelings to flow and don’t hold anything back or judge them, no matter how messy or chaotic they might be. It’s part of the healing from releasing we all need…a cleansing.  Virgo is all about the body, and about the sacredness and beauty of the divine in human form.  Revere your body as such, and it will respond to your healing thoughts.  Too much of humanity has forgotten what their bodies are for. I touched on those themes in last week’s blog and in my radio program. If you haven’t had a listen, just click here.

Lastly, I suggest using this time for artistic pursuits, resting, walking in Nature, Qigong, Tai Chi or yoga, meditating, chanting, listening to music (or playing it yourself!).  Tuning in to the deeper knowing that is you is the key.  If you are looking for information or answers outside of yourself (Sun-Virgo), okay. But come back into yourself and let your heart and spirit discover what is right for you.

For more detail about the entire astrology for this Full Moon, the rest of September and a preview of early October, just tune in to my upcoming show this Sunday. Details can be found below.

Show Synopsis: When the going gets tough, when the pressure is on, and there’s no relief in sight, what do you do? We are living in the End Times as it were and confronted daily with many real or imagined existential threats. Never in my life did I ever expect to live through a period like this, and I’ve seen quite a few epic things in my journey. Nonetheless, we don’t have to shoulder everything alone or in the isolation between our ears. It is essential to take a step back in inwards to check ourselves when we have a questions and doubts, like “what is this all for, and why?” I hear you, and so does the infinite heart of divine within us all.

This episode will key on the Full Moon in Pisces that takes place next Monday, September 20th, 2021 as a fulcrum for renewing our divine connection within, and without. Hope you can tune and spend an hour of comfort, reassurance and peace with me. 

State of the Planet: September 10th, 2021

​Greetings Fellow Earthlings,

With all that is going on these days on Planet Earth our bodies are under stress like we’ve never known before. On one hand there are a myriad of planetary-human dramas to cope with.  Then, there are the provocative influences from the increasing rate of vibrations and frequencies rising, sometimes called Ascension, and the pressure it places on our biology and mental-emotional wellbeing.  Astrology is a language for interpreting a lot of this, but I’d like to only mention one thing in that regards.  Last Tuesday’s New Moon in Virgo.  The uptick in sunspots and other solar/Cosmic phenomena coincides with all this, producing geopathic stress.

My personal experience and the experience of those who’ve been in touch with me this past week has been one of upset stomachs, extreme fatigue, weird dreams, episodes of insomnia, irritability, feelings of spaciness and walking in a dreamlike trance, etc., etc. Between our awareness and the planetary sphere, our bodies are getting pushed and pulled in many ways. Amazing how resilient they are, until they are not.  Self-care is Numero Uno during these times.

Since we currently find ourselves living inside an artificial digital reality one thing that seems to get increasingly ignored is listening to the body.  Pressures at work, home, in relationships, or from medical issues cropping up, all add the noise in which it is difficult to hear what our bodies are saying.  Ungroundedness is not just a symptom…it’s a warning.

We can only hear that body when we still our minds and emotions.  Really get quiet. Meditation is often equated with the attainment of inner knowledge and acquiring spiritual attributes.  Too often mindfulness leaves out the body and if ignored or left out of the picture long enough, they will complain.  Our soul has a way to get our attention in such matters…create an illness or discomfort.  This gets our attention focused right quick! “What’s wrong with me?” the mind says. “Oh my God, I might be/have (fill in the blank)!!” says the emotional body.  Once it has our attention or flattens us with a cold or something more severe, we tend to force ourselves to get well so we can return to the battle.  Bad idea.  That was not the reason our soul/body intelligence wanted to get our attention about…so we could then plunge headlong back into the world or pressure and responsibilities too soon.

We need to slow down, take stock, and find out what messages our bodies are sending us (from our Spirit and Soul of course).  Don’t hasten the healing…allow it to happen! Of course, there are many drugs and natural remedies out there.  Some mask the symptoms. Some help our body’s natural capacity for healing.  But we need to stop and listen to what OUR body wants and needs first, what direction to take.  If the illness is a serious one, then the investigation will have to go deeper to examine how we are hurting ourselves and our bodies by living the way we do, what is in our diet, what we are thinking about, and what we are in fear about.

To make the necessary changes takes will and intention. Incorporating somatic listening (body listening) as part of our meditation or reflection routine is one answer.  Another is to pay attention to where our attention is going.  Messages in cyberspace via media may be one thing that we need abstinence from.   Checking in to our emotions via how deeply or how shallow our breathing is another option.  If you’re shallow-breathing, you’re in flight or fight mode. Low oxygenation leads to lower immune levels and a risk of all those helpful little microbes in our bodies keeping things in balance.

Lastly, I have recently discovered the magic healing properties of mushrooms, in particular Cordyceps and Turkey Tail.  One or the other, or both, can help restore life force energy, reduce fatigue, boost immunity, and calm the nerves.  Another nerve tonic is magnesium.  If you can find Calm Natural magnesium powder, this is a great supplement.
The final helpful hint is pleasure.  Do whatever helps your body, and you, to feel good. Pleasure can be in many forms, and perhaps you know already what works for you. If so, great!  Doing what brings pleasure to our bodies can boost our immune systems and keep all of our systems humming along harmoniously. 

One recommendation is to talk and give thanks to our bodies for all they do to support us in our journeys here.  Then pet your pet, go for a massage, have a epsom salts or bubble bath, snuggle with somebody,  stretch or do some yoga, have a nap...whatever it takes.  Out bodies are gift from the Divine, and they truly are dependent on us as we are on them. Treat yours with love and respect, and it will pay off grandly!

That’s it for this week and hope you might find my radio show topic for this week intriguing. All about pleasure and somatic awareness.  Details below.

 ​​​State of the Planet Update:
Completion and a New Beginning – Full Moon in Aquarius, Sunday, August 22nd 2021

​By Isaac George
August 19th, 2021
 
Well, I’m back…sort of. Technically still on sabbatical until Monday, August 23rd, but there are too many things popping that need some attention. The main one is the upcoming second Full Moon in Aquarius in less than a month. It bookends with the one that occurred on July 23rd at the 1st degree of Aquarius. This Sunday, the 22nd of August, the second one will be at the 29th degrees of Leo and Aquarius. The famous (or infamous) Anaretic degrees are compelling moments in any astrology timeline.Here’s an excerpt from The Dilemma of the 29th DEGREE: Thor’s Hammer or a Cornucopia? by Eileen Nauman, DH(UK):
 
“Astrologers know that from 0 through 28 degrees, we, as individuals, have ample opportunity to work on our stuff, work through it and change it.  “Work” is defined here as our emotional and toxic wounds that we’ve accrued usually through childhood or in our twenties.  And they have to be healed.  In other words, we have choice.  And since we are down here to grow, the 29th degree is around to ensure that we do what is needed for ourselves–even if we don’t want to do it for a host of reasons (fear, lack of confidence, lack of faith in ourselves, etc.).  The 29th degree is there to ensure we WILL do it.  Or, if we’ve been running away from a lot of emotional garbage that we’ve refused to own–well guess what?  It’s all going to come back to haunt you in that 29th degree.
 
The 29th degree from a medical astrology standpoint is a loaded keg of emotional toxic ‘dynamite’ that has been ignored for some time, even decades, and it’s sitting there ready to explode.  When we have suppressed or repressed emotions, this will translate over time into actual physical, mental or emotional dis-ease.”
 
That’s Eileen just getting warmed upon the subject of the Anaretic degrees…
 
Continued –
 
“Of course, people have free will choice and if they elect not to try and heal their own wound, they ignore it.  [For example] they can ignore Saturn transits from 0 to 28 degrees of that sign.  However, when it hits the 29th degree, that person is going to have the Cosmic Hammer come down on him or her.  The 29th degree is a last-ditch attempt to draw the person or experience to this individual so they can get to work on discharging the toxicity they’re carrying inside themselves.  And so, calamity hits this person with a sledgehammer.  It can be a loss of a job, the spouse wanting a divorce, having to move to another state or country, the death of a spouse or child or parent.  And the list goes on…but the list of things that can happen are life changing for that individual. And that’s the power of the 29th degree coming in and confronting the individual who doesn’t want to do the work for whatever the reason.  No reason, frankly, is worth avoiding our own wounding.  If we drew that wound in this incarnation, it’s up to us to work through it.  In working through it, we learn, grow and mature and yes, perhaps even evolve, because of our efforts.”
 
Now I know that you who are reading this may not have any particularly sensitive points in your own soul blueprint (birth chart) for this incarnation, but that doesn’t mean one is totally out of the woods. You and I share in the collective awareness of the soul of humanity and of the planet, so we are not immune to the knock-on effects that that can have in our personal spheres. That said, this Full Moon is akin to an initiation…for the whole human race.
 
The little-known dwarf planet Sedna is currently also at the 29th Degree of Taurus and is being squared by the Sun and Moon at 29 Leo and Aquarius this Saturday. Some say that Sedna represents the soul’s destiny and has a hand in illumination and new consciousness. Sedna’s orbital path takes over 11,000 years to complete one revolution around our Sun, and she is way out there beyond the orbit of Pluto, so that last time Sedna was parked at the last degree of Taurus was at the end of the last Ice Age. Sedna was a goddess of the sea and intuitive feelings that belongs to the Inuit Indians of the Arctic regions.
 
She entered Taurus in 1965, just as the USA civil rights movement, the Vietnam War, and the rise of the hippie era all commenced. A big shifting in human consciousness to be sure! It’s also worth mentioning that Uranus and Pluto had just entered the element of Earth just about the same time when they both conjoined in Virgo. Sedna enters Gemini in 2024, around the same time that Pluto enters Aquarius. Sedna in Taurus could be one of the factors in the rise of the digital age since 2003, but when she gets into Gemini, it might signal a new rising of human consciousness, but one not tied to artificial intelligence or binary sciences.
 
At the unconscious level Sedna can represent victimization, illness, alienation, trauma, and suffering. At the conscious level she can foster profound acceptance, including of how bad things currently are, transcendence, keeping one’s heart open no matter what, and having a sense of humour.
 
With the Sun and Moon underpinning the archetypes of Leo and Aquarius, and squaring Sedna, I feel that we are being offered an initiation. One that can work best if we consciously choose to fully individuate into our sovereign truthful selves, while realizing and cultivating our innate spiritual connection to the elements, especially water (feelings) and earth (the body). This will be the choice point offered: evolved humanity not dependent or enslaved to digital technology, and a groundswell of consciousness opening not only to the higher cosmic influences, but also the divine influence right under our feet…and our noses!
 
Finally, in summary, allow me to offer the last part of Eileen Nauman’s brilliant essay on the 29th Degree:
 
THE CORNUCOPIA SIDE TO THE 29TH DEGREE:
 
“There is a positive side to the 29th degree as I wrote earlier. Think of it as a cornucopia of goodies just waiting to be given to you.   If you have done all your homework on yourself and done your best to discharge your toxic dump of emotions, then the 29th degree will leave you alone.  Instead, something “nice” will happen to you instead.  It might be a time of joy spent with your grandchildren, your friends, or relatives.  Or you attend a workshop that inspires you.  Perhaps you sign up for creative schooling, such as painting, learning to write or learn to dance.  It can be a simple as a wonderful lunch with a friend or a warm phone call from someone you love. Or it could be big, like a raise, a new job, a book being sold, being rewarded monetarily or in many other ways.  It will be a ‘lull’ in having to always do your inner work.  It’s Cosmic Gift Time, instead.  A pat on the head by the Cosmos that you’ve done the dirty work and succeeded.  Then, the 29th degree becomes a time of well-earned happiness in your life. And, as always, the choice of how we want to deal with the 29th degree is ours!”

The biggest issue of the day boils down to the fact that what is transpiring on the planet these last 2 years is only made possible by our immersion into the dreamspell of the digital domain. There is a simile to hypnosis and collective groupthink underway, exacerbated by the Saturn in Aquarius transit that promotes the group over individuation. True spirituality is about individuation of divine consciousness in the human experience. The mystic Edgar Cayce was asked during one of his trance sessions to describe Christ Consciousness. His reply was “to know thyself to be thyself, yet one with All That Is.” 

Our task, as I see it defined in reflection of Sunday’s Full Moon in Aquarius, is to define who you are not by what the crowd says you should be, but who you really are and how true to that you will be. We are all being tested and testing ourselves. Let us rise to the occasion and say choose non-compliance with anything that offends our soul and spirit, and say yes to that which is sourced in love, truth, wisdom, empathy, the spirit of cooperation, and harmony with All That Is.
​
So be it!!

On the next episode on my “Revealing the Mysteries” radio program I have Renee S. LeBeau, back again for Part Two of “Acoustic Alchemy. We will be talking with her about her newest album release, “Sophianic Symphony”, which is being debuted on the program and coincides with the Full Moon in Aquarius. Potent times indeed! Hope you can join us.

July 30th, 2021

​It’s time. Totally time for a time out. Stepping back is so needed during these times. Space to breathe, reflect, rest, and have some fun. Recharge, re-create, and rejuvenate. Are you feeling the same?

Have your sleep patterns been erratic of late? Did you feel extra emotional during the past week? My instincts tell me that the Chiron Retrograde in Aries has finally started to take hold, while at the same time we traverse the space between two Full Moons in the same sign. More cracks in the wall, and more opportunities to grow…multidimensionally and otherwise. The windup before the second Full Moon on August 22nd will have Uranus in Taurus going retrograde August 19th. From then until October 7th all the big, transpersonal outer planets will be retrograding, moving backwards. Time for taking stock, integrating the shocks and learnings of the past 7 months. Not been an easy road by any means.

I’ll be covering more about the astrology, the energy shifts for August, and the importance of reclaiming our full humanity in the face of the digital Aquarian Era on this Sunday’s program on show “Revealing the Mysteries”.

Beginning Monday, August 2nd I will be indulging in a long-awaited three-week break from everything. There is only one more live episode for my radio show “Revealing the Mysteries” before my holiday begins… this Sunday, August 1st.  I will return to the matrix on August 23rd.

In my absence KindaSound will be airing two encore presentations, featuring the ambient guitarist and composer David Helpling. This two-part show aired in March of this year, but since he may be close to finishing his newest album, this felt like a good time to share these intimate and evocative interviews with my audience.

Then, on August 22nd, there will be a new album release from a previous guest on the show, Renee S. LeBeau. Renee’s newest project, “Sophianic Symphony” will be released on the same day as my interview with her airs. This is also the date of the second Full Moon in Aquarius. I've already heard some of the tracks, so tune in and prepare for some transformative sounds!

The last week of the month is up in the air, but I will resume the newsletter and blogging the week of the 22nd of August, so you’ll have plenty of notice.

Show Synopsis: August 2021 contains the culmination of the Blue Moon Cycle currently underway in Aquarius. Uranus turns Retrograde for six months beginning on August 20th (U.K.) and goes direct on January 19th, 2022. From now until early October all the outer planets are retrograde (Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn and Jupiter, plus Chiron). Retrogrades are a time for review and coming to grips with understanding what is happening, why it’s happening, and what needs to be done to course correct before the big spiritual planets retrograde season is complete.

The time of self-selection is here, which means as humanity is dividing itself into two streams or directions it will become increasingly difficult and uncomfortable to just sit on any fence. Three days after Uranus stations retrograde, we have a major reckoning point with the second Full Moon in Aquarius, on August 22nd. This is a pivotal moment, and I suggest that it will be a tipping point for many who are choosing love and courage over hatred and fear. The choice of which path is ours for the taking.

State of the Planet Update
July 23rd, 2021

Note: I apologize about last week's Update not going out as I was interrupted by an unwelcome computer failure. And sorry for not being able to let you know about last Sunday's radio show in advance. You can access it here.


“Revelations” – Blue Moon in Aquarius, Saturn Reactivated

"If you love large, you've got to hurt large. If you've got a lot of light, you've probably got an equal amount of darkness" - Sarah McLachlan, composer, singer

"We’re in a tight spot!!" - from the film “Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?”

The Full Moon tomorrow is a Blue Moon (second full moon in the same calendar month) and is also a bookend to the next Full Moon in Aquarius on August 22nd, 2021. This one begins at 01 degrees of Aquarius, and on the 22nd of August it lands on the 29th degree of Aquarius, the powerful “Anaretic” degree. Anaretic refers to a context in which our egoic free will is suspended, and a divine directive holds sway.  This energy is demanding that we pay attention, do the necessary work, before we can   move into the next phase of soul development.  Our personal self would very much like to avoid, defer or postpone the effects of when a planet or luminary comes to the 29th or 00 degrees of any sign, but it simply cannot be resisted. One researcher into the Anaretic phenomenon calls it “the Hammer of the Gods”. Enough said.

“Well, what about free will?”, you might ask. Free will, or at least the power of choice, takes on different meanings depending on which level of being you are viewing it from. As a fractal of the Originator (Source, Goddess, etc.) we all have free will…up to a point. I like to think that my soul is constantly choosing whatever experiences it requires to know self and yet be one with All That Is, but my ego may interpret this as also having the ability to reject or even resist the Soul, and by extension, All That Is. Good luck with that. Yes, you could resist or rebel…at least for a while. Eventually you would realize that your personality was created by your Soul for a specific reason, and it does not run the show. This is what I feel is the revelation of personal surrender of the self to the Self. It is humbling, and it is necessary if we are to recognize and correct errors we have made along the way.

The revelations that will confront us from tomorrow’s Full Moon to the one on August 22nd will be focused on the delineation of reality versus illusion, truth versus falsehood, sovereignty versus servitude, and cooperation versus self-interest. The Saturn in Aquarian Era, soon to be fortified by the greater Pluto in Aquarian Era, will be testing us to choose wisely, and then act from that wisdom fearlessly and without hesitation. There will also be many revelations about what’s been hiding behind the curtains that will come fast and thick between the Full Moons and for months thereafter.

Now here is a 5 Step program you can use your free will on!

1. Get super clear about your internal alignment spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. Examine and alter your belief system and values.
   
   
2. Speak your truth, even at the cost of alienating or losing long-time friends, family or social standing.
   
   
3. Be okay with isolation or going it alone as you will want to magnetize and be magnetic to others who are soul kin to you, then the isolation will not matter any longer.
   
   
4. Discover how to live more simply and cultivate self-sufficiency.
5. Examine your deepest fears and be proactive in addressing your shadow material. If you need assistance, find assistance. Surrender your need to be right so you can be peaceful. (That one takes a lot of self-care).

One of the best and simplest methods for mitigating stress and anxiety, shock or fear is conscious deep belly breathing. Breathwork is varied, and no single technique applies to all. Try out a few…see what works. Best of all, you can utilize it anywhere in almost any situation. If you need some tools in this regard, email me at isaac@isaacgeorge.com. I supply them for free.

That’s all for now, and I will have one more update to come at the end of next week, as I will be taking a long-awaited two-week break from everything starting on August 2nd, and extending to August 23rd. There are two more live episodes for my radio show “Revealing the Mysteries” before my holiday, this Sunday the July 25th, and the following Sunday on August 1st. Hope you can drop by and listen in. The following two shows on August 8th and the 15th may both be encore presentations. Not sure which one, or both. Let you know next week.
​
In the meantime, keep breathing, and keep your heart open.
Blessings on your journey and with lots of love,
Isaac
