The planet/archetype Venus in our birth chart symbolically describes our relationships — the desire to connect, to relate, to express and receive love and affection. It is also going to show what we find beautiful, what we value and what gives us pleasure. No two of us are exactly alike so a big part of being true to ourselves is to be able to love and value who we really are.

Drumming, an ancient art form rooted in many cultures around the world, is also a therapeutic tool with profound effects on the human psyche. This rhythmic practice transcends mere musical performance, tapping into deeper psychological and physiological realms. 

Dreams are universal.  Most human beings are familiar with the crazy nighttime phenomena, where anything can happen and probably will, where impossible narratives unfold with a psychedelic complexity.  But there are other kinds of dreams, for in the sleep state our thinking minds are also sleeping. 

Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the presence of love.
— J. Pittman McGehee, D.D.
The affect that others have on us is purposeful. The unconscious will actually facilitate this to happen by producing quarrels eventually. Don’t feel like a victim when this phase of a relationship begins. The unconscious of both people will set it up so that they can differentiate i.e., see who each other actually is. In other words, recognize differences.

For a long time, most people believed that cats originated from Egypt 4,000 years ago. However, archaeologists have found evidence that contradicts this notion. They have discovered fossils and DNA evidence of humans buried with their feline friends dating back to 12,000 years ago.

The Pisces Age is over. Sacrificing, suffering in silence and being martyrs in order to stay in a relationship will not work anymore. The Aquarian Age goal for relating, as I see it, is to become best friends. First, find out if that person is willing to be in a reciprocal relationship. That means no one is doing all the giving or receiving.

The sign of Pisces is the 12th sign of the zodiac (February 19  through March 20). Developmentally from about eighty years old to the end of life, Pisceans are considered to be the sign that is the most compassionate and gentle of all the signs. They have an innate capacity for becoming selfless and nonjudgmental. Often sacrificing for others, they go about expressing genuine concern for the suffering they see in the world.

Music has always been amazingly valuable to me as the words of a song can convey what is not only on our minds, but is also in the collective unconscious. Carl Jung describes this as a rhizome of archetypes that connects us on a much deeper level of our existence. The feelings and emotions evoked in a song allow us to feel our inherent connection to each other; the words convey what is rising up from the unconscious that wants to be known.

The sign of Aquarius is the 11th sign of the zodiac (January 22 through February 21). Developmentally from about sixty-eight to eighty, Aquarius, ruled by the transpersonal planet, Uranus is a sign interested in awakening the collective to concepts and ideas that revolutionize outdated ultra conservative systems and rules that keep society stuck.

Destructive and Dangerous to Ignore Our Shadow Self
The possibility of the dark side taking over and becoming dominant in an individual is more prevalent and common in those who do not take the time to question themselves and really evaluate their behavior in daily interactions with others. People who are overly identified with how “good” they are can be the most vulnerable because they are so lopsided. No one can be good all the time. It’s humanly impossible.

What can be in the Shadow of Capricorn? The opposite sign of the zodiac is Cancer. This more emotionally sensitive sign can often be described as clingy and strongly dependent, creating parent/child relationships with others well into their adult years.
