Sun continues his transit through his own sign, Leo, this week. Venus goes retrograde early in the week, but she remains at 0 Virgo all week, conjunct the important fixed star Regulus. Sun certainly shines brightly in his home sign, but Neptune, for example, also is very commanding in his home sign, Pisces. Sun and Neptune will form a subtle, but difficult, aspect this week. Amalgamating the better qualities of the two, with effort, result in themes such as “inspired creativity” and “expression via imagination”. The long-standing mutual reception between Saturn and Pluto also contributes to the home signs theme. Those adept enough to use structure in consolidating power are using the Saturn-Pluto theme (“disciplined transformation”, “authoritative perspectives”) productively, indeed.

Living off the grid isn’t just some hippie weirdness anymore. More families are being turned on to this lifestyle for a variety of reasons; be it a way of living simply, getting away from fossil fuels, the satisfaction of being independent, or simply because they want to do greater social good in the world.

The definition and reasoning for living off the grid has changed from when the movement first started in the 60’s to modern day. The 1960’s – 1970’s off the grid lifestyle centered on people wanting to do for themselves; living simply and synchronized with nature. The back-to-the-land movement of that time period was about families, solitary sorts, and offbeat communes craving to live a life in the wilderness away from the mainstream society. Dona Brown, author of Back to the Land, a history of the movement, said that “Many of those people dreamed of escaping modern society completely. They were thinking about opting out.”

If you stop trying to fix others and evolve yourself, you will start to see big positive changes in the people around you.Trying to fix others will only result in frustration, confusion and resentment.

They say you’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with. That goes the other way too. You’re one of those five for other people. When you evolve, the people around you can’t help but evolve. And those people are some other people’s significant five. The ripples eventually spread around the entire globe.

When you evolve people become curious.

Most of us have at least one person in our life that we want to “fix”. We hear that person speak and our brains constantly feed us reasons why this person is thinking in a distorted way.

An urge rises in us and we start dumping advice – Advice that was not asked for and not wanted. I say there is a better way.

We are living in perhaps the most exciting and challenging time in history. The acceleration of information from every side continues to pour in while the spiritual awakening bursts upon us. This collision of worlds is ongoing and the culmination at many levels is surely inevitable and no doubt already upon us.

That humanity faces a psychopathic otherworldly driven agenda is evident, and has been for a long time. The advancement of technology at this rapidly rising peak of this crescendo brings new dimensions to our planet and existence. The ultimate power tools are now available to darkly driven forces and we are increasingly forced to deal with them on a daily basis as they steer towards their totalitarian nightmare.

This massive program is not a briskly brushed aside issue by any stretch of the imagination. Too much has been at work and covertly engineered for far too long to stop their progression – entirely.

But it is destined to fail. The question is: will it be now? It’s up to us.

The Universe speaks to you all the time. You need not know why just trust that it will guide you to where you are needed. ~ Creator

Without us noticing, we are entering the postcapitalist era. At the heart of further change to come is information technology, new ways of working and the sharing economy. The old ways will take a long while to disappear, but it’s time to be utopian…

The red flags and marching songs of Syriza during the Greek crisis, plus the expectation that the banks would be nationalised, revived briefly a 20th-century dream: the forced destruction of the market from above. For much of the 20th century this was how the left conceived the first stage of an economy beyond capitalism. The force would be applied by the working class, either at the ballot box or on the barricades. The lever would be the state. The opportunity would come through frequent episodes of economic collapse.

Instead over the past 25 years it has been the left’s project that has collapsed. The market destroyed the plan; individualism replaced collectivism and solidarity; the hugely expanded workforce of the world looks like a “proletariat”, but no longer thinks or behaves as it once did.
