It really is the hardest choice. Leaning into fear is so easy. Choosing love is impossibly hard. It's the brave choice, and often the painful choice, but it's worth it. It is the only path out of hell.
It is hard to believe the world right now- and this post is truly grounding. We are a society of living in the now and forgetting how we got here, especially in the states. I loved how you brought the past forward and made so much sense about today and the future. I so appreciate your insight. Helps on so many levels along with the importance of love over hate. So needed.
By understanding the cycles, by realising that history really does repeat, and it does so in a pattern, can help to ease the anxiety in these wild times. This is not just an ending, but also a beginning. Onwards!
Civilization’s obituary reads like a greatest hits album. France loses another Prime Minister. Japan swaps leaders like used socks. Israel bombs peace talks while drones drop party favors over Poland. And in America, democracy now has its own true crime series.
Every generation thinks it’s the end. Spoiler: it always is. The old world always dies. The new one always arrives screaming. Ask 1776. Ask 1789. Ask every starving Parisian who traded bread lines for guillotines.
Pluto in Aquarius is basically the cosmic Marie Kondo. It’s holding up every institution and asking, “Does this spark joy?” Spoiler: Congress does not. NATO does not. Wall Street definitely does not. Into the cosmic donation bin they go.
So yes, it’s collapse. But collapse is just birth with worse PR. The contractions hurt, the screaming’s unbearable, but on the other side is something alive that didn’t exist before.
What a welcome relief this is - a comfort among the chaos. The parallels with the past are fascinating. Thank you for presenting your commentary in such an enlightening way. 🙏
I'm glad it eased the uneasiness, that's what I was aiming for. When you see the pattern, its like a map, so we don't have to stumble along blindly. xx
Thank you. This is a great article to anchor us to reality in a dissolving world.
It's a reminder that the dissolving also gives way to a rising. Yes, it's an end, but also a beginning.
I really needed this. Thank you.
Choosing love is the path humanity needs to follow. May I be brave enough to do my small part in that choice.

I’ve been singing REM’s song for weeks now.
“….and I feel fine”
Even when maybe I don’t feel so fine.
…and I feel fine. Good read!
Thank-you (and yes, hard not to sing the song when you read that title!)
