Dualisms of all forms in fact because their notion of 'god' is duality itself - the symbol that the archetype Saturn (aka Satan / Yahweh / Yadalbaoth / Moloch etc - depending on your upbringing/culture, apologies to any who are upset by that notion but I've explored each of those as practise) and the black sun (why Saturn has a surreal black hex shape on its pole) represents. However to enforce divide and rule for the sake of fracture (because without extreme darkness there is no brightness of light - the notion of the Lucifer, light bringer) is to enforce yourself to be divided (dissociated) against the beautiful simplicity of life: that words themselves and language are always simply approximations of the depth, breadth, scale, and beauty of existence itself 🙂 Therefore, when we move beyond those preconceived ideas, beliefs and words we can truly be free and therefore, as I wholeheartedly (and mindedly, embodiedly, spiritfully and souluarly! 😉) concur with you here Irah 🙌😁💜 We are not human doings of humancruelty eh! We are human beings of humankind... 🙂

@Aritra Das yo Aritra, from my expeience Id say I'm closely in accord with Irah on these things; 1) gratitude as Irah points out helps up stay aligned to see how something good can come of situation or opportunity, even if it's 'just' practise (which is what we need to build experience, greater awareness and skills) but I'd also say: a) worthiness. I'm going to put it out there, but us as men are having a tricky time with worthiness right now and, do correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I can sense that this is likely a factor with you Aritra my friend. Worthiness connects to other aspects of humane nature like the see-saws of: dignity-depracation, self pity-self respect, patience-impatience (and many others) but ultimately our ego. I would suggest it as a regular (daily or every few days) to check in with yourself; are you finding the balance between having enough self respect (which, for me at least, I find can come through gratitude practise like Irah has mentioned) whilst not being arrogant VS enough humility/modest (whilst not putting ourselves down). Classically the masculine (but ofc also feminine too) have had a challenge getting this balance right with most of us mortals veering from one extreme side of the see-saws to the other and not finding a varied balance around/near the mid points. b) being able to perceive any outcome as being valuable and worthwhile; just as a dirty, muddy rock can be hiding a crystal, precious metal or a fossil / something ancient within (technically all rocks are ancient, they've seen far more than we have over the years haha!). So too can any and all experiences if we allow ourselves to relax enough into perceiving them. In fact, back to my thoughts in 1a) above - relaxation is a really clear way to find the balance from our ego so find ways of doing things that help you to relax somatically. If some / quite a lot of stress is occurring (which it sounds like it is) then exercise (especially walking outside in the elements / in nature / around trees) is key to help your body process the cortisol that's built up within it.

High this week but also not shying away from recognising I also usually need to work on it - especially with all the intense energy going on around the outer world right now. Make sure to keep our inner candle lit and not blown out (burnt out) 💜

Hello A&MS crew! My name's Callum (in case you couldn't tell!) and I'm from the land of Dragons: Cymru! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 My goal is to reconnect and remember my path, to help others with theirs and to explore the ideas, inspirations, actions, projects, hopes (and fears! We can't go ignoring dancing with our shadow from time to time afterall eh?!) and aspirations as we explore the inner and outer worlds in between all these 🙂. As for any other words, I'll simply mention the opening words of Bill Hicks' closing piece 'Its Just A Ride': "The world is like a ride in an amusement park; and when you choose to get on it you think it's real because that's just how powerful our minds are... So the ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills and spills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun - for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride...!" Here's another by the late Wayne Dyer: "When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change..." ☯️ See you in there (or out here! 😉) y'all!

This is such a powerful creation you've made here @Irah Morffi 💜 Thank you for having me join! I can already tell that this is going to be an awesome journey! 😁🙌
