For those who feel disheartened by timelines like 2030s to 2060s, I would just like to inject some hopium. We are already seeing examples of heart centered leadership right now including in my home city of New York. For those who don’t want to wait, consider moving to areas that have this kind of local leadership now and help to build it, amplify it and replicate it. We can grieve the collapse or marinate in the idea that we won’t live to see the new, or we can look for the new alive and well in our country right now and join in the fun!
I have said this more than once about your writing - this piece is stunning. Tears running down my face. I am one of those hippies carrying the seed. This is the moment I have been waiting for.
My favorite sentences : " you cannot reassemble a caterpillar once is has begun it's metamorphosis into a butterfly." "Now, at last, it's time to start walking." Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I really like all your posts, and I look forward to reading them. Your writing about the heart taking over for the mind stirs something inside me. A little hope, a little excitement and maybe a little trepidation on how we get through this muddled period until we get to a heart-based society. And I have to say that I am seeing more and more articles and writings (not just on Substack) about communities and neighborhoods and people coming together in the spirit of love and care for one another. For example, Teri Leigh in Minneapolis has been talking for weeks about how neighbors and people are coming together. I see it happening on a small scale in so many places and it warms my heart whenever I see it or hear about it. And it gives me hope for what a heart-based society will look like and feel like. It's happening! It's small right now, but it's happening, and it's a great feeling!
I’m so pleased this writing gives you hope. The picture painted in the stars really is very hopeful. I believe right now we are in the darkest part. This next few years will be the hardest. But it gets lighter as we go. By end of this decade we will be seeing green shoots, and ten years from now we won’t recognise the place. And yes, we can already see the start of it now - not on the news or in the headlines, but in our communities, sprouting all around us. The heart is rising and it cannot be stopped. The fall of the tower the mind built will be very loud, and probably quite distressing - we’re feeling that now - but right alongside it this heart energy will be blooming. All is not lost. This is not the end. It is just the very beginning. xx
Thanks again, Wiz, for being not just an astrologer but a visionary. You are helping to create this new world by sharing your vision, using the magical power of Imagination as a tool for healing. I loved reading this and imagining my wonderful grandchildren, now ages 9 to 18, helping to midwife this beautiful future society.
Having had the amazing opportunity to briefly live and raise my family in a small rural commune in Northern California (1991 - 2000), I know that people can thrive in small, collaborative groups, and that children really benefit from this "village" model. A beautiful example of this is the Co-housing movement. Do you have Co-housing communities where you are? At this time, where I live in California, Co-housing is only for the few, a new idea that is too expensive for most people to access, but I don't think it has to be out of reach. We could just decide that little neighborhood groupings are the way to live, and start creating them one step at a time.
As for schools, I taught for years in a public Waldorf school, and while that approach would benefit from a structural reboot in any number of ways, it is closer to what you describe than any other I am familiar with. We can do it! But the transformation of our schools requires a lot of re-thinking of our assumptions about education. People tend to obsess over the importance of "critical thinking skills". While I would be the last one to deny that critical thinking is important, it is only a small part of what education needs to address, even in the realm of thinking. What about creative thinking? And really, isn't it time to learn how to access "heart-based thinking"? Rudolf Steiner was talking about the vital role of the heart over 100 years ago. It feels deeply hopeful to realize that the world is finally waking up to this understanding.
Again, thanks for being such a dedicated herald of what is to come.
In the 70's I read a wonderful book. 'Small is Beautiful' by E.F. Schumacher. It was a collection of essays originally published as 'A study of economics as if people mattered'
It had an enormous effect on me at the time.
I think it's time for a reread and I believe I may still have it in a box somewhere.
Thank you, Wizard. All last week I sang, “This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius.” I was a little young to wear flowers in my hair in the summer of love, but I was profoundly influenced by the peaceniks of my tweens. The only thing I can add to your thorough and valuable narrative of our fire horse timeline, are the heart-centered young adults who were born of that visionary generation. My children are the bridge builders, as you are.
After many months of my own grief and hibernation, I have started to dream again. Yes, I still rage against the patriarchy and colonial rape the land and innocents culture. But my heart has finally softened enough to imagine and write ✍️ a beautiful future, beyond strife and scarcity. The future holds so much love and joy. Thank you, Wizard.
Feeling the grief so deeply, but also the gratitude, especially for the music of these times which shows me over and over how musicians have been the model for the new world, creating amazing sounds from the fusion and fission of cultures, rhythms and aesthetics. Bad Bunny and crew at the Super Bowl was the culmination of something beautiful and shows us the path forward. Excited to see what we can begin to create!
Thank you for this most profound reading of what lies ahead for us. We should all embark on a spiritual path that allows us to connect with the one True Self that lies within all of us and feed that connection with love for everything that is our existence. That will power us through whatever comes our way as we cross the bridge(s) ahead.
Damn, this is way too long. It would’ve been nice if you had given a summary of the main points because frankly reading the whole thing becomes tiresome.

Or both. I don’t think joy and hope are incompatible with grief. It’s all necessary.
Yes. Thank you for wording it. I was there. And I'm here now.
I chose, it seems, to time this incarnation so I could ride both fire horses.
To hold the vision. Heart open.
I was there.
And I'm here.

As a healer and medium, I am sooooo ready to step into this 💞
Needed this desperately today. Divine timing ❤️
