💔 The Farewell – Uranus in Ta**us 💨

Uranus has been moving through Ta**us since 2018—shaking up what we thought was stable: relationships, finances, homes, identities.

Now, this powerful transit is nearing its end.

The Symbolon card “Farewell” mirrors this energy: two figures part ways, each heading down a new path. One carries the weight of the past, the other walks light into the unknown.

🌟 Symbolon reminds us that archetypal forces are always at work, even when we can’t see them.

This card helps us name the energy many of us have been feeling: the end of an era, and the strange, quiet freedom that follows.

What are you ready to let go of—so your soul can walk lighter?

💫 Sometimes the soul can only grow when we stop holding on.

To become the hero/heroine of our Journey we must come in contact with the archetypal realms in the process of learning to live out our unique mythology... It is only the living of our unique mythology that “saves” us from the terror of homogenization and “history,” rendering us “indivisible,” the root of meaning behind “individuation.” We are a Unique as well as Indivisible Whole, recovering from the amnesia of our “fallenness” into not so much form and matter but the “system” of planetary or kosmic enslavement that governs the material realm through patterned, mechanized forces. This “system” — which is a much better translation of the Greek “kosmos” within Gnostic cosmology than say “matter,” is ultimately seen to be the challenge through which we reclaim our divinity through a genuine kind of spiritual “battle” with the fallen (conditioned, inertia-driven) forces governing the not-Self as well as the human realm more generally. However, in lived actuality it is really more like our unique mythology begins to live itSelf out -through- us in our complete surrender to our heart’s yearning for a higher calling as well as destination in life. The Self truly is as alien to the ego who thinks it’s in control of matters divine as the ego is to any other form/manifestation of divinity. “You either surrender or you never surrender.” -Ra Uru Hu

He walks alone, beneath a sky ablaze— Not just fire, but pure will. The sun bleeds on the edge of the world,
and the archetypal force is woken.
 His sandals crush the dust of endings, his sword still sings from battle’s breath. A city smolders in his shadow— left behind like the former self.
A red cloak whips around his frame, bold as blood, proud as flame.
 The wind does not question his direction; he is the wind himself—untamed.
Shield at his side, grinning beast-faced— a reflection of the rage within. Destructive force, turned into momentum. Ancient anger with hunger to be known.

One falls behind, broken and curled, perhaps an enemy, perhaps a fear. Perhaps the part of him that doubted he could ever survive the frontier.

The ram’s horn curls in the sky— the mark of Aries, child of fire. First-born of the zodiac’s circle, driven not by thought, but pure desire.
 Mars as Ares move with him— planet of passion, war, and fight. But here, he is not waging battle. only claiming his birthright.

For this is the beginning of all things— inner peace, and the spark that leads. The phoenix must burn before it blossoms. A soul must bleed before it leads.

So he walks—
not with doubt, but with destiny.
Not with a map, but with motion.
A Warrior not for war’s sake—
but for the inner fire to wake.

People who do not know enough about their own dark side are the ones most likely to fall victim to evil influences. If one knows about one’s own evil possibilities, it is easier to recognise them in others. The only way to walk through the world free of being naive and foolish, one who is always protected by mother from the evils of the world, is to face the depths of one’s own evil. When we are not aware of our own shadow, we are taken over by it. This is a common team in fairytales; in the encounter with the unconscious, the ego is frequently confused, disoriented, or else goes to sleep as in “Sleeping Beauty”. The alchemist called this experience the “nigredo” the first stage of the work. In psychopathology this experience is diagnosed as dysthymia or depressive neurosis. Yet this period of melancholia, the experience of realising the opposite within oneself, is necessary for it leads to the ultimate phase of the work, the Hieros Gamos or union of opposites.

How are you all handling this Mars retrograde?🧡

My natal Mars is in Aries, and let me tell you—my inner warrior is not having it. It feels like he’s being dragged backward, kicking and screaming, and he is not a fan.

Meanwhile, my husband’s Mars is in Pisces, and he seems to be moving through this turbulence with so much more grace, acceptance, and flow. So I pulled out the Symbolon cards to reflect on this:

Mars in Aries → The Warrior – Charging ahead, full force, but now being forced to slow down. The frustration is real.

Mars in Pisces → The Dreaming Knight – Floating with the current, watching the scenery, seems totally at peace with being pulled back.

It really feels like my warrior is trudging through quicksand, just waiting for February 23, while this dreamy knight is just... vibing.😀

And it got me thinking—how are those with Mars in detriment handling this? Mars in Cancer people, I see you! 👀

Looking at the Cancer Mars card—the defiant little child running away from mom—yep, that’s exactly how I feel right now. But then again, my natal Moon is in Aries, so maybe this is just my personal flavor of retrograde chaos.😆

What do you think? Do you feel there’s a correlation between your Symbolon Mars card and how you’re experiencing this transit? Which card expresses your current mood? 👇Comment below!

🌕 Leo Full Moon & The Symbolon Card: INCOMPATIBILITY 🌕

Tonight’s Full Moon in Leo illuminates the dance of opposites—the eternal pull between love and separation, between the masculine and the feminine within us all. And what better card to reflect this cosmic energy than Incompatibility? The Moon in Leo, the Sun in Cancer Symbolon card.

This card speaks of the archetypes of Adam and Eve, forever bound yet destined to walk different paths. It reveals the moment of awakening—when we see the “other” for what they are and recognize the necessary tension between opposites.

But is incompatibility truly a curse? Or is it an invitation?

Deep within us it is the Anima (the inner feminine in men) and the Animus (the inner masculine in women)—two halves of the soul seeking integration. Too often, we project these inner aspects onto others, expecting them to complete us. Yet, true wholeness begins within.

As Marion Woodman so beautifully put it, only when we face our shadows and hold the tension of the opposites can we move towards the sacred wedding—the divine marriage of the Self. This is the journey to true integration, the pilgrimage toward wholeness.

💫 Under this Full Moon, ask yourself:
* Where am I resisting the union of my own inner opposites?
* How can I honor both my fierce independence and my deep longing for connection?
* What parts of myself have I exiled, believing them to be “incompatible” with who I think I should be?

The Leo Moon calls for courage—the courage to love, to separate, and to unite once again, not through illusion, but through deep self-awareness. The sacred wedding does not happen outside of us. It is the great work of the soul.

✨ Tonight, let the moonlight reveal your inner union. You are already whole. ✨

Monday night’s full moon brought together our monthly women’s circle. I am deeply grateful to the wonderful and brave women who joined me on this journey.🙏

I introduced the OH cards alongside our usual Symbolon deck as we explored the archetypes of the Child, the Maiden, and the Mother within us. Some of these inner personalities felt scared, angry, and others were still hiding.🦋

Yet, the Higher Self sent them a message of unconditional love and acceptance, allowing them to step out of hiding whenever they feel ready—perhaps by the next moon!🌙✨

♊️🌝 The Gemini Full Moon and the Dance of Mind and Heart 🧠❤️

The Atriculation Symbolon card beautifully captures the themes of the Gemini Full Moon. Mercury, the archetype of intellect and communication, is seen comforting a despairing feminine figure—symbolizing emotion and vulnerability. In the background, the crescent moon reflects the unconscious emotions now surfacing, while the water reminds us of the depth and fluidity of our inner world.

This card highlights the delicate balance between thinking and feeling. Under this Full Moon, we are asked:
* Are we allowing our hearts to guide our minds?
* Are we using our intellect to hold space for our emotions?

The union of these forces creates true harmony. As we integrate the wisdom of both, we honor the duality within us—turning it into strength.

As the upcoming full moon draws closer take a moment to sit with this card. Let its imagery speak to where you might need balance between logic and emotion, intellect and intuition, masculine and feminine energies in your life.

How do you feel this card reflects your current journey?

🌙✨The Dilemma of Eve: Embracing Both the Mother and the Lover Within✨

As we approach the upcoming Ta**us full moon this November, powerful themes of femininity and self-reflection emerge, heightened by the cosmic influences of Ta**us moon. This potent combination calls us to ground ourselves in the essence of the feminine and explore the many layers within.

Symbolized by the “Two Faces of Eve” card from the Symbolon deck, we see a woman gazing into a mirror. On one side, she sees herself as the nurturing mother, tender and devoted, cradling a child in her arms. On the other side, she sees her reflection as the lover or femme fatale, embodying allure, passion, and personal empowerment. This image encapsulates the timeless dilemma of the feminine journey: the choice (or lack thereof) between the roles of mother and lover.

The Ta**us moon archetype shines light on this inner conflict. If she embodies the mother, where is the space for her personal desires, her allure, her individual power as a woman? Yet if she chooses to embrace her full feminine force, her sensuality and independence, can she truly hold a place for children or for self-sacrifice in that identity? Must she divide herself, or is there a way to bring both sides of herself into harmony?

This dilemma isn’t about denying one side in favor of the other. Instead, it asks us to consider whether these two roles—the mother and the lover—are as separate as we might believe. Ta**us and Cancer energies remind us that our deepest power as women often lies in our ability to nurture, create, and love in multifaceted ways. They invite us to explore what happens when we accept both faces of Eve within ourselves, allowing the mother to embrace her inner lover and the lover to nurture her inner mother.

Join us this Friday at the Full Moon Women’s Circle, where we’ll explore this archetypal struggle and work with the energies of the Ta**us full moon. Together, we’ll reflect, share, and support one another as we each find our unique balance between these two powerful aspects of the feminine self.

🌟A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME TRANSIT 🌟

✨Uranus - Jupiter Conjunction✨

April 20th brings a rare and powerful astrological event: a Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in Ta**us.
Happening only every 84 years, the meeting of these two planets promises us something unexpected.

Jupiter brings expansion, a surge of growth, while Uranus likes to liberate us and brings with it exciting changes.

The potent energy of these two planets combined can trigger a metaphorical “table flip” in our lives, prompting us to finally make that change we have been contemplating.

The Uranus-Jupiter Symbolon card is called the Quantum Leap.

Here we see the Fool jumping over a deep abyss. Even though the other side is not visible, he is not sure where he’ll land, the Fool has tremendous faith (thanks to Jupiter) and so he takes a leap of faith. He takes the jump.

In what areas of your lives have you been contemplating a change?
Are you ready to take a leap of faith now? Perhaps the conjunction of these two planets will give us a gentle or a not so gentle push in the right direction…

Eclipse and Full Moon in Libra✨

19/03/2024

Hi Symbolon Friends!✨

Have you noticed how the energies are building up?💫

We are nearing the spring equinox that falls on March 20th. This day marks the time when the length of day and night are nearly equal, and it heralds the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere.

From a spiritual perspective, the spring equinox symbolizes renewal, rebirth, and balance. The Deliverance Symbolon card comes to my mind with the liberating energies of Uranus and the nurturing energies of the Moon.

It’s a time of transition from the dark, introspective energies of winter to the light, expansive energies of spring.
The spring equinox offers us an ample opportunity for spiritual renewal and reawakening. It’s a time to set intentions for the coming season, to let go of what no longer serves us, and to align with our highest truth and purpose.

I for once would love for the snow to finally melt here so that I could go out for a nice walk and smell the scent of the earth as it is slowly waking up from its slumber.

How do you plan on celebrating the spring equinox?✨
