"Using astrology psychologically is not a recent trend, though; it was widespread among the alchemists of Europe, such as Paracelsus and Athanasius Kircher, who sought to undergo the great work or magna opus of transforming and transmuting the self. Astrology later attracted the attention of Western psychologists and psychiatrists" (quote from Maja D'Aoust) TAP in with us as we speak of: Shadow work, subconscious influences, counter-part, your double ganger and alter-ego and why it is so important and so natural! Here are some of the themes we talk about: -The unexpressed energy in shadow -Doubles and the shade and its role within magical traditions -In the shadow is also our biological instinct and here is a great quote from Maja: "The impulse and compulsion of instinct serves to keep you and all other life-forms alive. Without instinct, we would not survive; therefore instinct deserves as much respect and veneration as intelligence." -Identifying with limited information (bias) -There should be no shaming about having a shadow- we are bound to it, living in this reality! -The dualistic nature of the universe -Pagen history and mythology -REMEMBER WHERE YOU COME FROM -Why (we think) social media is toxic now but started as an utopia -Different terminologies and perspectives on the Soul -The need to have more insight on death and the afterlife journey -Grief and love even though there "is no loss" because there is a perception of separation with death -How the I Ching helped Maja realize shadow astrology -Sharing esoteric wisdom and how I find some purpose to talk publicly about books that inspired me -Eclipses and double ganger experiences Rich with information!!
