Divination for Self Discovery

Astrology is a form of divination that dates back thousands of years and has been used for various purposes, including self-discovery, self-care, and healing. In recent years, astrology has been integrated into psychedelic therapy for individuals struggling with trauma, addiction, and anxiety.

Psychedelic therapy involves the use of psychoactive substances, such as psilocybin mushrooms, LSD, or ayahuasca, to help individuals confront and overcome emotional and psychological challenges. Astrology can be a valuable tool in this type of therapy by providing a deeper understanding of one's individual patterns and tendencies to act out in negative ways.

For instance, astrological signs, houses, and aspects can reveal the root causes of one's emotional pain and the tendencies to turn to substance abuse or unhealthy coping mechanisms. By exploring these patterns, individuals can gain a better understanding of themselves and the underlying reasons behind their behavior. This knowledge can help individuals take a more proactive and self-reflective approach to healing, leading to a greater sense of empowerment and self-awareness.

Furthermore, astrology can be used to enhance the therapeutic experience of psychedelic therapy. This can be done by incorporating the individual's astrological chart into the work between a client and their therapist, guiding them towards insights and insights into their unconscious mind, and helping them make connections between their own life experiences and the cosmos.

My work is to assist in this process by providing the astrological support needed by a client in their work with their own therapist or journey guide.

Listen to Some Mercurial Music with this Trismegistus Playlist

This morning, as I was browsing through some Spotify recommendations, a new artist popped up that I hadn't seen before. The cover of the single that was presented to me was pretty captivating for some reason, and it led me down a rabbit hole exploring this artist's work. One track, in particular, caught my attention, called "Trismegistus." For those of you who have been studying astrology for a while, that name might ring a bell. "Trismegistus" refers to Hermes Trismegistus, the mythological progenitor of astrology, known as 'thrice great' and connected to both Egyptian and Greek mythology. While I won't dive too deep into the historical and mythological intricacies here, let's just say the track struck a chord with me on a deeper, almost cosmic level. Inspired by this discovery, I decided to curate an astrologically themed playlist that embodies the mystical qualities of the universe, wrapped in the enchanting cloak of music. The "Trism...

I wrote about this configuration several month ago. You can read about that in my post titled: Beyond Binaries: Jupiter, Uranus, and a Queer Dance in Taurus Jupiter, the planet of expansion, meets Uranus, the harbinger of change, in the steady sign of Taurus.

As we look forward to the next conjunction in Gemini, we anticipate a shift from earth to air—from the grounded, material focus of Taurus to the intellectual, communicative realm of Gemini. This transition encourages us to consider how we might move from places of comfort to realms of intell...
