State of the Planet Update by Isaac 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. To listen live on Sunday, August 8th, the 15th, and the 22nd, just use this link: https://www.kindasound.org/ All shows air at 6:30pm BST, 1:30pm EDT, and 10:30pm PDT. In the meantime, keep breathing, and keep your heart open. Blessings on your journey and with lots of love... Isaac As always, I am at your service as a mentor, and astrotherapist to assist you in understanding your position in the Big Story of Life and letting go of the little story. I will be accessing and reviewing emails during my holiday, so please email me if you’re needing assistance. Just click here for an opportunity to discuss what sort of guidance, healing and support you are seeking. 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!
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 As always, I am at your service as a mentor, and astrotherapist to assist you in understanding your position in the Big Story of Life and letting go of the little story.

They are planted in a small strip of ground between our living room window and the fence, and in previous years they have not been doing so well. Poor weather is usually the culprit here in the British Isles, but forgetting the rose food is also another factor. However, during the past 3-4 weeks, they have not only been producing a prodigious number of blooms, but they’ve grown over 6 feet in height! As I gazed upon the unique orange blossoms, I thought that how easy it is to become inured to the beauty that is so close by somewhere. For a moment in time, all my personal thoughts faded into the background, and so did all the world’s tumultuous activity. Here it was just my consciousness taking in the beauty in front of me, and I became lost in a serenity that there are no words for. Seems we take so much for granted these days, and most of us are so preoccupied that we just don’t really take in what is right at hand in our lives. It is one thing to look, it is quite another thing to actually see what it is we’re looking at. A mere thought about the to-do list, or a worry or three, and we are turning away from the miracle in front of us and exchanging it for another task, another obligation, and another round of problem solving. If you are an entrepreneur, most likely you live that experience 24/7, and barely come up for air. Marketing, tech hassles, virtual staff issues, grumpy clients…where does it end? When does the good life begin? It can begin when we choose to slow down enough to take stock of ourselves, check and see if we’re occupying our body instead of hovering near it, and exercise our sovereignty diligently so we honor our own feelings and space to be as we are. Yes, I know…there are obligations a plenty. Working for a paycheck with a family to support during the upheavals of the past 17 months has been a grab bag of stress. Or perhaps you or someone you know has a health condition, or a psychological one. None of this we are experiencing is easy, and we can be so focused on survival mode that we overlook so much that there is to appreciate. I have a very good book about spiritual seeking call “Doing Nothing” by Steven Harrison. It’s focus is on the modern quest for enlightenment and peace, but many of his perspectives could easily be applied to more mundane matters. The other book which I have not read, but recently ordered, is entitled “How to be Idle” by Tom Hodgkinson. The Puritan work ethic, or the work ethic imposed by a jealous God in the Old Testament (“…by the sweat of thy brow shall you earn your bread…”) set the human race on a high-stress path of exertion with a future promise of reward and comfort. The entire dogma of the Abrahamic religions is centered on a perfect hereafter, if we are all good boys and girls that is. What is discouraged more today then ever before is that to be idle, or decide to withdraw from the Rat Race, is to be a reactionary. Someone who is anti-societal, and not to be trusted. For a raw example, read this recent article about loafing in China that appeared in the Guardian UK. In China it’s becoming a “thing” and they call it “lying flat”. At this New Moon in Cancer take an inventory about your own life. Where do you over-commit? Where do you over-give? How do you cope with low grade anxiety or moments of high stress? Are you happy and peaceful, or anxious and fearful? Are you in your body, and loving your body, or not? Here’s something to ponder - when there’s a lot of cortisol pumping through our bodies we are incapable of rational decision making. The cost for this is multi-dimensional too, and as Dr. Gabor Mate’s states, trauma or living with trauma is the single biggest cause for disease…period! Your physical and psychic boundaries are yours to employ and maintain. No one else will do it for you. We are empowered, we are capable, and it is not selfish to be concerned with one’s own harmony and wellbeing. Slow down, breathe and look around. What do you see? There’s beauty within and without to appreciate. Remember it often.

What followed over the next 4 years was a sincere effort to redress the grievances, but unfortunately a Committee for Public Safety was formed which instigated a Reign of Terror resulting in the arrest of 300,000 and over 25,000 deaths, including the king and queen. Today we are immersed in an atmosphere of terror that is being orchestrated by a global committee for public safety - the medical establishment. The M. O. is fear. Asking questions is now discouraged, truths are being suppressed and censored, and individual liberties are being removed. If we are to grow beyond this moment and come out the other side, we will need to dig deep and call upon our courage. We can inspire many to actualize a new path for humanity. You and I are the Solution, and there are higher spiritual powers we can employ Time to recognize and claim that inner power. Through our courage and healing the Earth is renewed.

Does it evoke excitement or fear? What if you could be and do anything you chose? What if you were suddenly free to roam and live any way your heart wanted to? Heady stuff indeed! You might have an argument with yourself (or with others more likely) that you have many obligations and responsibilities. What about keeping society coherent and following the rules? What would happen if you dropped all your masks, and said exactly what you thought, or acted from your authentic self? Maybe freedom to be who you are is absolutely a key part of larger freedoms. I originally had big plans for this blog. I wanted to share about some pertinent astrology stuff, about the USA birth chart, the upcoming Pluto Return for America spanning from February 2022 till roughly January 2024. These are the last acts of Pluto in Capricorn before the main event…Pluto’s ingress into Aquarius on January 21st, 2024, conjunct the Sun. America has been viewed as a beacon of hope and freedom for more than 200 hundred years, especially to peoples around the world with much fewer options or freedom of choice. What will occur over the next 3 years will be seminal for the USA, and by extension, the planet. (My broadcast this Sunday focuses on this situation in more depth). Well, as John Lennon once quipped “life is what happens when you make other plans”. Sometimes that is the case no matter the scale of experience, and it has been just like that for me this past week. Intensity does not seem to lessen with time, just the complexion of it changes. A few days ago, I ran across this video (see link above) of a lecture by Dr. Gabor Mate’, and watching it immensely added to my understanding of what the concept of freedom is all about. Since I have Sagittarius rising and Uranus conjunct the Sun, the twin issues of power and freedom have been constant companions for me in this lifetime. My idealized poster child for freedom would sort of look like a rugged pioneer from the American West, or a character like Captain Jack Sparrow of the Pirates of the Caribbean films. What eluded me was the one quality that drew me, and probably a smaller part of the global population than I imagine, to the heroes and heroines from our history who struck courageously out on their own, sometimes at the very cost of their lives. The figure of William Wallace (movie- Braveheart) is one example of an individual committed to freedom at all costs. I am rapidly redefining my concept of freedom to be an experience that can only be realized by grounding into one’s own authentic being self so profoundly, that you essentially are out of control. Control by others or other concepts I mean. Living from that ground of being would free you from the lies you tell yourself, the lies you accepted to keep yourself safe and protected, to afford you feeling accepted and loved by others outside of you. My mother use to lecture me, “go along to get along, don’t rock the boat!” Well, that works only up to a point, and then what? You continue betraying your own nature to please others and please the system? That is telling yourself lies. Dr. Mate’s analysis of such behaviours is that it inevitably leads to illness of some kind, and if not physical, at least mentally, emotionally, and ultimately, spiritually. The Indian mystic Jiddu Krishnamurti put it this way: “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” If we honestly take a deep look at what has been happening around us for the past 16 months, one can easily discern the effects that following the dictates of the herd will do to us in all arenas of our experience. Learning how to live free in a seemingly unfree world is a discipline and an art. Many never start, and few have the patience to withstand the tide of criticism or ridicule that others will use to dissuade you from the dangerous and heretical pursuit of authentic experience and freedom. If you are grounded well into your being, and in harmony with your own Soul and the Cosmos, it will not matter. You will not hold anything against anyone, for you would only be harming yourself. Nonetheless, you will walk in freedom, sovereignty, and peace, because you will know who you are and never compromise your integrity ever again. Once embarked on, this is something that will become a lifelong practice. I will have to begin each day by committing to it, and then hopefully it will be the whole of my experience…one full of joy and contentment. Start where you are…take an inventory of what is bottom line important to you. Listen, then implement, and, as always… Blessings on your journey and with lots of love, Isaac As always, I am at your service as a mentor, and astrotherapist to assist you in understanding your position in the Big Story of Life and letting go of the little story. Click here for an opportunity to discuss what sort of guidance, healing and support you long for. Coming up this Sunday on "Revealing the Mysteries" program. Hosted by Isaac George Show Synopsis: July opens with a bang. Saturn and Mars in oppose each other on July 1st, then on Saturday July 3rd Mars in Leo squares Uranus in Taurus, while Uranus and Saturn are still in a square to each other. All this sets the stage for the USA annual celebration of their independence from the Old World in 1776. What’s looming in the wings is the upcoming Pluto Return in Capricorn in the USA Natal Chart. This heralds huge chaotic change both within America, but also for the world. The spirit of America has a certain magic that appeals to the imagination of people around the world. This ‘magic’ is rooted in the American psyche and represents the core values of the Founding Fathers ideals around freedom that birthed the USA. Individualism and independent action were elevated, but within a structure of community and participatory cooperation. I will be exploring this and related themes during this episode. I will cover how we prepare to deal with these intense situations, maintain equilibrium and stay true to our own inner soul compass. AIR TIME - 6:30pm BST, 1:30pm EDT, 10:30am PDT
