In this podcast, Alja and Eva Kristina, a neuroscientist and an astrologer, explore the universe of archetypal energies associated with various astrological seasons.
We have entered Autumn; the season of slowing down, closure and death - and if that isn’t a perfect combination of energies to dive deep into the Scorpio archetype! However, this episode is by no means aimed only at those with strong Scorpio placements in their charts. The astrological wheel teaches us that all 12 zodiac archetypal energies are present in each of us; through gaining greater understanding of how they manifest in our lives, we can learn more about ourselves and how we interact with the world.
The main topics of this episode are death, transformation and SHADOW – the parts of ourselves we separated from to fit into society, to feel loved and accepted. But separation always causes pain, and without being consciously aware of it, these are the very parts that cause us to feel triggered, jealous and judgmental towards those around us. Many people are afraid to face and embrace their shadow, as it is not always easy - yet, once we are ready to dive into the murky depths of our subconscious, shadow work is a beautiful journey that allows us to not only gain wisdom and compassion but to also step into our true worth and authenticity.
The flow of this season’s ASSploration:
