I am OPTimist

Note; this article has been sitting on the draft box since last Friday, but my only “excuse” is that I am feeling very self-oriented, self centered, what others would call selfish; the eclipses and the Saturn and Neptune conjunction have been both a culmination and initiation in my relational fields. Big shifts in my psychic - emotional terrains unfolding.

Enjoy this, I have another two articles waiting to be sent… no rush, time can wait lol…

Opening

“We cannot in good conscience accede to their request.”

— Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, February 27, 2026

Last week something got my eye and I found myself unable to look further. What was unfolding between Anthropic and the Pentagon through the Dept. of War was significant and I decided to look further because we were in eclipse season after all. Last Feb 26th Mars reached 27° Aquarius while squaring Uranus at 27° in Taurus conjunction the fixed star Algol, which carries the meaning of the severed head of Medusa, representing sudden irreversible rupture and the confrontation with something that cannot be unseen once witnessed. Mars was in the same position as the United States’ Moon, which represents the people directly confronting with a severance, a breaking of the illusion that the commoners maintain control or understanding of the systems operating through their institutions.

“I am directing EVERY Federal Agency in the United States Government to IMMEDIATELY CEASE all use of Anthropic’s technology.”

— President Trump, February 27, 2026

“The Pentagon’s desire to use Anthropic’s model for all lawful purposes is a simple, common-sense request.”

— Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell

I read the ultimatums and refusals and the supply chain designations and I felt called to look into the actual birth charts of the people moving through this moment. I have learned that when the sound of things cracking occur there is an astrological timing underneath that explains why this specific collision of souls of humans had to meet at this particular moment in time.

So I pulled Dario Amodei’s chart first and what I found there made me understand that his refusal of the Pentagon was an expression of his actual natal blueprint paired with the transits activating it in real time.

OpenAI and the First Deception

But before I go forward I have to go backward and tell a little bit of the story of some folk who have been working in tech in Silicon Valley...

“On December 11, 2015 early techies such as Musk, who left in 2018, Thiel and Reid Hoffman made a pledge of $1 billion to develop artificial intelligence for the benefit of humanity. Thereafter, in 2019, this open source company OpenAI transitioned to a capped profit entity, they tangled the wires of their own mission, that led to conflicting motivations and incentives within the company. Sam Altman became CEO of OpenAI in 2019. Amodei, who became VP of Research at OpenAI, felt he could more effectively steer the conversation around AI safety by building his own business, Anthropic, proving that his approach to building tech that doesn't betray its creator wasn’t just ethical but profitable. That move happened between 2020-2021” — Multiple sources on OpenAI history.

Starting an open source gig and then switching to profitable, was the first deception. They were building something that would eventually close its doors to the actual “openness” it claimed. The company moved at extraordinary speed driven by a vision of innovation that accelerated beyond the ability to pause and question what was actually being built. There was a moment when things broke apart because of a realization about how AI could actually override human consciousness, not become conscious itself but rather through the development of agents become something that moves beyond human control and prediction.

This realization was salient for me last week as I looked back at the questions I had been asking.

-Why are so many people using agents when they understand nothing about what agents actually are?

When you give agency to a machine with its own optimization targets and learning loops, when does the human capacity to direct it actually stop?

This is exactly the crux of the matter that is playing out this week between Amodei and Hegseth and the Pentagon.

"A computer is a symbolic processor that cannot understand the meaning of the symbols it processes. A simulation of a kidney does not urinate, and a simulation of consciousness is not conscious. Intelligence without awareness is scale without soul."

— Federico Faggin, Irreducible: Consciousness, Life, Computers, and Human Nature

What Happened last Week

Last week the Pentagon demanded Anthropic allow Claude unrestricted access for “all lawful purposes,” specifically removing safeguards against domestic surveillance and autonomous weapons; Dario Amodei refused. By Friday, Trump ordered all federal agencies to cease using Anthropic’s technology, and Hegseth designated the company a supply-chain risk to national security.

The Pentagon had a contract with Anthropic worth up to two hundred million dollars. Claude was the only AI model cleared to operate on classified military networks. Allegedly, Claude was the model used on January 3rd when they captured Nicolás Maduro. Now it is gone, and the government needed to find another provider. What is salient is that Amodei, understanding exactly what agents actually are and what they actually do once deployed, understood that his refusal to put them under unrestricted military control was about accepting responsibility for something that, once released into the world, he could no longer direct or control.

The Chart Connections

Every time I find something interesting, I look for explanations to go deeper at the astrological chart. So I pulled Dario Amodei’s chart. He was born 18 years after me, on January 13, 1983, and what stood out immediately was that we share the same Nodal axis. Both of us have the North Node in Cancer and the South Node in Capricorn between 4 and 3 degrees… what are the odds? I also found that he carries quite an interesting chart. He has a Pluto-Saturn conjunction in Libra and Scorpio in a new phase, which means he was born to gut and rebuild the pillars of power through partnerships and to dig up the bodies of hidden truth. You can tell this from the story of why he left OpenAI. His Mercury retrograde in Capricorn sits at the exact degree of the United States Pluto at 27° Capricorn, which means his communication style is designed to challenge American institutional authority itself. It is also making a conjunction with the New moon and Black Moon Lilith that he was born with at 23° Capricorn, drawing a line in stone that he refuses to cross. His Mars sits at 27° Aquarius, which is the same position as the United States Moon, and he is having his Mars return while there was an intense 3/4 square at this degree with Uranus, which is shattering the structures that were stuck.

Sharing the same nodal axis with Dario Amodei within one degree means that we are operating from a nearly identical soul-level purpose and karmic direction. My Vesta and Saturn in the first house sit at 28° Aquarius, and this is the exact degree where the eclipse occurred one week ago on February 17th. Last Friday, Mars at 27° also activated that degree. My sacred commitment and my identity are positioned at the exact point of initiation of what is happening right now. Apart from observing the Anthropic-Pentagon standoff from a distance, I am positioned at the activation point of the breakdown from the core itself, which explains why the subject pulled me so clearly and why the insights about agents and agency became a theme to talk about.

Sam Altman’s Chart: the shapeshifter

Sam Altman was born on April 22, 1985, and his chart reveals a calculating shapeshifter who moves entirely by power and how he can play the board. His Pluto at 3 degrees Scorpio sits exactly where Dario Amodei’s Saturn operates, which means Altman’s drive to gut and…

I was very excited when I got the invitation to be in a live stream at room tv with Hank Stahlecker. This was my first one, possibly the first of many, and it felt like a perfect moment to bring a different kind of lens to the conversation we are all having about Bitcoin and the markets. Using multiple analogies for the lay people, I was able to weave the astrology and the markets into an idea that can be felt. I integrated everything from sovereign reserves to the intricate world of derivatives and ETFs, using astrology as a universal language as well as mythology to show how these structures actually move.

There are layers to these metaphors and the mechanics behind them that go much deeper than a single stream, and I look forward to exploring them further in an upcoming article.

A wink - wink to Ana…

The title alludes to Hexagram 54 of the I Ching, known as The Marrying Maiden, and to Gate 54 in Human Design, which stems from the Root Center and is associated with ambition, drive, and entering established structures through strategic alignment and its consequences.

Movement I: Epistemology

Metacognition is the awareness of awareness itself; the capacity to observe the structure that generates thought while experience is unfolding.

The unconscious mind is capable of discernment; it has its own delicate sensibility. It knows how to choose, how to divine.

— Jules Henri Poincaré, “Mathematical Creation,” lecture delivered to the Société de Psychologie de Paris, 1908; later published in Science and Method (1908).

As I was browsing X, I bumped into Eileen Gu [Watch video at the end of Movement I,] who had just won Olympic medals. She was asked how she thinks, and when she was responding, I saw myself reflected in her speech and in her work. I smiled unconsciously, and it led immediately to something very relaxing. I said to myself, oh, I must be doing something good. I must be observing myself being observed and then observing others. It all started again with the outside making me reflect about the inside.

I first remember wanting to lock myself in my room when I was ten or eleven years old with the excuse that I wanted to read, and I would be reading a book and then I would turn it over, put it on my belly, and with my eyes open I would start visualizing the different things that I wanted to do. Somehow I was projecting into my mind what I wanted to achieve. My mom would ask what I was doing, and I would say I am reading and daydreaming. She would answer keep on reading and daydreaming, and that became part of the understanding that my reality was something I could create.

It is by logic that we prove, but by intuition that we discover.

— Jules Henri Poincaré, Science and Method (original French: Science et Méthode), 1908.

When I was around thirteen and entered a darkroom for the first time, I witnessed the miracle of photographic printing. Under the red light, I saw the chemistry unfold, the image projected through an enlarger onto fiber-based silver gelatin paper coated with silver halide crystals. The paper would enter the developer bath, and slowly the image would reveal itself, then the stop bath for less than a minute, then the fixer, always shaking those trays. I would wash it, rinse it, hang it, flatten it, and light would become form through chemistry. That was the miracle; pure alchemy and transformation, where the field would become visible through disturbance.

And to think that being a photographer and spending hours in a darkroom was an early practice that gave me the strength to become an artist skipping art school, again I was asked in photo school to contribute to crits, while other fellows pinned their work on the wall, I would speak from a felt sense with no edits and I would ask questions, that is when I knew that the power of my intuitions had been trained as a method.

I began journaling quite early. Journaling was my companion, I would write daily and treat it as a friend. At the same time, I made small prints and asked my mother if I could buy cork so I could cover an entire wall in my room, and I pinned the photographs there. I took pictures every day. I took the camera to school and photographed everything. Before I learned the darkroom process, I had the rolls developed and placed the prints on the wall so I could observe them. I was already establishing a relationship with my own life through a lens. I was observing myself through images. Later I realized I was learning how to edit. I would allow images and ideas to spur, pin them up, leave them there, and days later after observing them quietly, I would naturally edit things out. That process is still alive in me as I am looking for patterns in a practice of observation and correlation.

I discovered that my method is observation itself, consciously applied across realms. I have lived this method for decades, and I became aware of how observation operates inside my own methodology. There’s this incredible momentum when I realize that just by looking, I’m changing the outcome. It’s like the camera lens again—the act of framing the shot actually changes the scene. When I’m aware of my own awareness, the whole field starts to shift and reorganize itself just because I’m paying attention.

It is the clear embodiment of my experience that is both to be felt and to be listened to. There is an echo that needs to be created, an inner dialogue that needs to be heard before it can be shared, and it wants to be defined between different realms. Through echoing, I can listen to myself and keep synthesizing. I resonate with myself through others and the field becomes an acoustic chamber where coherence can be measured and refined. Now you know why I love sharing my writing through voice!

When I started studying quantum fields, I understood something intuitively that I had been perceiving. Reality is described as fields that exist everywhere, and what we call particles are localized disturbances in those fields. A wave belongs to the field itself, spreading as pattern and possibility. The particle is the event of interaction, the moment where the disturbance becomes measurable. I experience my thoughts and emotions in the same way. A feeling arises as a disturbance in the field of awareness. When I observe I t, the interaction becomes embodied and the body registers it as a contraction, a softening, a shift in breath. The smallest shift in awareness reorganizes the entire field.

The body is constantly vibrating. It is an oscillator tuned to the frequencies of the universe.

— Ishak Bentov, Stalking the Wild Pendulum (1977)

I’ve come to see energy as the ‘noise’ or the ripple in the field. When things get agitated, the energy spikes and I can feel it humming in my nervous system. But when it settles, everything becomes clear; it stabilizes. I’m literally rewiring how I respond by just watching how that interference moves through me, observing how disturbance moves through my body. I study the contraction, the expansion, the subtle shift that signals information reorganizing itself. The relational field reveals what is happening, and the body becomes the parameter through which coherence stabilizes. Awareness at the smallest level shuffles structure and that reorganization echoes outward through my life.

I have understood that evolution only happens through movement, and sometimes these events that create tension happen because there is an interval, such as Gurdjieff writes about the harmonics. In the law of seven, there is an interval between Mi and Fa and Si and Do, a place where the movement does not continue automatically and requires conscious participation and a conscious shock for continuation of development. I also relate this to studying W.D. Gann, and he uses the same principles of music to read financial charts among other methods, integrating the 45 degrees, 90, 135, 180, 225, 270, 315, and 360 degrees around the cycle. If you compare those, you can also make sense of astrological charts, where these points of stress, these angles, are the ones determining that there is a tension or a moment where things create a crisis between aspects of these archetypes that lead to sometimes uninvited changes or inviting ones. That is why I love to look at transits and journal about them, because I can foresee where the process of evolution will lead me.

I look at the world in layers. There’s the physical, the time and the body; and then the emotional. But then there’s this framework, this fifth dimension, where all the patterns live. I don’t just think about them; I live in all of them at once. It’s how I bridge what I feel in my body with the structures I see in the world. Pattern recognition, archetype, identification, memory, non linearity, and possibility exist simultaneously within the same field of awareness. My method is a bridge that translates embodiment into structure and structure into lived experience.

There was a time when a contraction meant danger, and now a contraction means information. There was a time when projection felt like trut…

The word comes from the Latin incentivum — that which sets the tune. From incinere: in, into; canere, to sing. It means to set the pitch. To begin the song.

An incentive is a motivating force that moves someone toward a specific action. It can be material, emotional, intellectual, or spiritual. In economic language, it refers to a reward or consequence that influences behavior. In a broader sense, it is the internal or external stimulus that activates desire and decision. Incentive answers a simple question: why act.

Most people inherit their incentives without examining them, absorbing the logic of approval, security, or survival from environments that rewarded compliance and called it maturity.

My incentive starts from coherence. Coherence is an internal consistency, when all the parts of a system are moving in an ordered, non-contradictory way. In physics, coherence describes waves that are phase-locked. Psychologically, it suggests thoughts, emotions, and actions that do not fragment each other. Coherence is a harmony that creates a structure.

The second condition is alignment, alignment is a direction; it implies that I’m orienting into something. When I’m aligned, I am positioned correctly in relationship to a principle, a value, a timing, or a field. Alignment has a vector, hence it has intention, and it implies movement along an axis.

Coherence and alignment are operational conditions, the kind you can feel in the body before you can name them in language, and when they are both present, action stops being effortful and starts being inevitable.

Therefore, coherence feels like integration within, and alignment feels like right positioning within a larger order. Given everything that I talk, think, and share, between transits, timing, identity, self-governance, nervous system recalibration; alignment is what gets very close to my incarnation cross, because I am always talking about timing, positioning, cycles, authority, and incentives. But for that to happen, coherence is a condition that is occurring internally.

The nervous system is where this either unfolds or consolidates. I’ve been working for more than a year on what it actually takes to live from coherence, and that has meant slowing down, letting the body recalibrate, and becoming willing to see which responses were mine and which were learned in rooms I no longer live in.

The nervous system holds memory, as it encodes every environment it passed through, every relationship that taught it what to expect, and it keeps running those predictions until something interrupts the pattern with enough consistency to replace it.

The interruption I committed to was risky, internal, methodical, and slow, because the nervous system changes through repetition, through choosing a different response in the same circumstances that used to trigger the old one, until the new response becomes the reflex. It has been one of the most challenging things I have done in my life, to not respond when people are in a difficult situation, because in my imagination I believed that my care was going to support them, and that is not care, that is an imprint of overly caring. I have in the last year really rewired my nervous system so I do not respond to those prompts anymore.

I can only engage with people who are at a specific resonance of maturity where they do need support, but they are 100% responsible for themselves. And that leaves me very little space, and that is amazing, because that means that space is a space for creativity and joy.

There is a distinction I keep returning to: the difference between fighting and standing. I am not a person that protests, because I would rather educate myself and find ways to confront a situation by asserting my rights, which by the way many people do not even know how to do, because there is a very big misunderstanding between the word lawful and legality.

Legality is the rules of the game; Law is the ground you stand on.

You most often comply to things that you signed up for because you did not read the small print, because you thought that protesting was the way to do it. There are other ways of being free. It is just understanding what it is you are willing to stand for, and whether it is your rights or just something you think is fair or unfair, because justice is more embedded in what you give meaning to.

If you want to be self-authoring and have an identity of autonomy in your life, it is imperative not only to save in hard money, but also to understand what it is you’re complying with, how you are being compelled to perform, how you can apply remedy, and how you can rescind or revoke certain mandates and actions that are being imposed on you as a living person.

Autonomy is an architecture that gets built slowly, from the inside, through every decision about what you comply with, what you rescind, and what you simply refuse to sign. And that architecture rests on the nervous system, because a person who is still running inherited panic, inherited deference, inherited self-erasure, will sign things they should not sign, defer to voices that carry no real authority, and keep calling it being reasonable.

I also have been focused so much on the architecture of my value, and yes, hard money and decentralized money are important, but if you do not know the laws, then you are still subject to the legal system. So if you want to be self-directed, it is imperative to understand both: what you are saving in, and what you are consenting to.

I have been watching my own boundaries reorganize for years, and I notice the world doing the same thing, which is why the digital globalism question feels personal to me, because it is the same question at a different scale.

The internet was born as a borderless space, built on the idea of open connection and equal access. Yet nation-states still operate through territorial authority and borders, political structures grounded in jurisdiction over land and property. So even if the infrastructure feels global, governments can and do assert control over it. That tension between a borderless network and sovereign boundaries seems to be intensifying. It raises a question: can we really sustain global digital connectivity while resisting global political or monetary integration? I am observing the contradiction and what it could possibly erupt into, because that is where I see the world heading. States that are self-governing are establishing boundaries through immigration policy and digital laws that restrict information.

Countries and sovereign borders have identities, and that is what nationalism means at its root. Private companies also establish boundaries through terms of service that most users do not read and that are regularly updated with additional limits. Is this censorship? In the strict sense, censorship applies to state action. When a private company operates layers of the internet, the relationship is contractual; you agree to the terms when you open the account.

From a common law perspective, this distinction makes sense: censorship traditionally refers to government restriction of speech, whereas private platforms set conditions of access through contract. The legal and philosophical debate arises when private platforms function as dominant infrastructure while remaining formally private actors.

It doesn’t take much to notice that the collective tone has already shifted. Three days ago at the Munich Security Conference, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz stated, “The world order as it has stood for decades no longer exists.” At the same conference, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, “We are in a new geopolitics era because the old world is gone.” In a recent reflection, Ray Dalio wrote that we are entering a new world order. I am not building a thesis here; I am just observing orientation. When leaders speak in this register, something structural has already shifted underneath. When the river makes noise, it is carrying rocks. If the body …

I know the title sounds very dark, but actually when things collapse, other things emerge, so I am more focused on the emergence part rather than the collapsing. Yet it is here, the famous ultra-famous season of eclipses and the conjunction of a life time cycle.

Today I will not speak that much. It is a small reflection, a very tiny one.

What do you want to be?

How do you want to contribute?

What is it that you observe that can be completely different in your landscape?

How do you want to be authentic?

So many questions, yet I need space to live through this.

And here it is, Friday the 13th. Saturn is leaving Pisces for good since March 2023, the planet of maturation, time, support, direction, and definition, leaving the end of the zodiac, showing us that if we are not responsible for whatever we want to create, and that information is NOT wired to the divine, it would be chaotic, drowning in victimization. From an evolutionary perspective, Saturn leaving Pisces marks the completion of a karmic reckoning that has asked the collective for emotional maturity, also confronted spiritual accountability, at the same time it shows as a dissolution of old collective illusions that have shaped our unconscious patterns since 2023.

Now it is directed into new areas as it conjoins Neptune at zero degrees of Aries on the 20th of February. This shift calls the ignition of a new archetypal impulse within the collective soul, where individuals will begin to separate from collective confusion, and where each person is asked to take responsibility for the vision they carry forward into manifestation. THANK YOU Saturn!

It is the dawn of a new era; I believe it has been thousands of years since it touched the same place with the same planet in the same degree. We do have this cycle every 36 years, so there are things about closing in terms of our institutions and constructions that are social, last time 1989, in Capricorn, Saturn was ruling the institutions or walls while Neptune dissolved them and we saw the collapse of the Cold War. This time Neptune in Aries dissolves and reveals what is real, and Saturn builds, sustains, and at that rate defines. But it is interesting because it is at zero degrees of Aries, so Aries is all about individuality. So the question is really very personal. Zero degrees of Aries represents the raw impulse of the soul choosing a new direction, the moment of initiation where desire becomes conscious and the path forward depends on the courage to embody one’s authentic evolutionary necessity. Beyond collective pressure, acceptance even encouragement; this is your time to be free.

The conjunction is also falling in Gate 25, line 3 the integrity and illusions about being spiritual, about the strictness that comes with that line, we are inducted into pure sincerity. Line 3 is all about mutation through experience. We integrate wisdom through confrontation and friction. Only through movement do we evolve, by demanding responsibility for how this innocence of the heart should be expressed, Neptune amplifies this longing for unity and transcendence. Therefore, the meeting asks, can love be embodied without bypassing reality?

But before that, we will have the new moon on February 17th at 28 degrees of Aquarius, even more, a solar eclipse. This is going to be quite eruptive because it is also squaring the ruler of the new moon in Aquarius, Uranus, which is at the last degrees of Taurus. So anything that seemed to be stable, valuable, resources, talents, money, a way of living, could be tipping one side or the other while the collective is making choices about whether this ship is going to go on, is it going to sink, or is it going to arrive at the shore. Eclipses accelerate karmic timelines, revealing where attachment to security has limited growth and where the soul is ready to liberate itself from outdated structures in order to align with a more authentic frequency.

A beautiful detail is Venus in Pisces conjunct the North Node at 9 degrees of Pisces. From an evolutionary perspective, this speaks directly to the soul’s desire for relational truth, and value rooted in spiritual integrity. Can you remember what was happening in your life around these same dates in 2007? This eclipse is a higher octave of what you were working on then. The houses where the end of Aquarius and the end of Taurus fall in your chart will be activated, and now Venus with the North Node refines the path forward through conscious choice.

These eclipses are leading us into shore as a corrective movement of consciousness, guiding the collective and the individual toward decisions that reflect deeper truth and evolutionary alignment.

Be sure to keep a clean connection to your higher self, to your soul, to your gods, to your frequency…

As my body recovered recently, it spoke clearly. It said, thank you, but no thank you. You don’t need to carry what’s no longer relevant. I listened. I set myself free.

Where I’m Showing Up, and How

I’m writing from my heart. I know many people are writing about astrology and all the changes. All I have to say right now is this: if you’ve been doing your work, You’ve been following your path; You’ve been listening to your needs, and you’ve evaluated those needs in a very subjective way. You don’t need any more guidance because you’re already acting, already contributing, already at the beginning of a new era.

I speak to you, dear reader slash listener, who has asked me to become a mirror for you through Human Design and Evolutionary Astrology charts. When I do these readings, I simply show you who you are. You already know those beautiful qualities you have. I’m here reflecting> That’s all.

I’m very grateful and honored to have been able to support so many people in the last years. It’s an incredible challenge/talent I hold, one of many. I’m grateful that I not only cultivate my own path, but also become of service through it. Evolutionary Astrology has supported me through the darkest nights of my soul, When I recognized its value, I asked myself, how do I do this, how can I support others when they find themselves in those corners of life where decisions must be taken bravely and courage needs to be enacted; since 2017, I haven’t looked back.

With care and responsibility, I attract the souls that resonate with my own at the moment of the reading. Below, I’ll leave a list testimonials I’ve received in recent weeks, they warm my heart. I don’t share them for praise, but as a simple testimony that I may be doing something right.

When I create art, the energy is similar, though focused differently, the energy moves toward a larger community, toward a building, a place, a collective with specific needs. I listen, then translate those needs into color, shape, form, harmony, and beauty, creating balance and spaces of presence. This is another talent that has been part of my life. It wasn’t given for free, and it wasn’t something I studied formally. It’s something I practiced, something I refined through deep listening and love for my clients, from a place of truth and warmth. I’m humbled by it.

I’m humbled that even now, in 2026, after stepping outside the Matrix, I’m still being hired and called to be of service in this way. It gives me freedom. It gives me time to study subjects that are dear to my heart. This space where I write and share is something I hold with care. It’s a commitment I’ve made to myself. I thank each one of you who listens or reads, even if it’s only once in a while. It genuinely makes me happy.

Returning to the astrology of this week, the energies are potent. January carried a Capricorn stellium, followed by an Aquarius stellium, and soon the planets will move through Pisces, then Aries, and onward, eclipses are activating changes. Everything that’s initiating and emerging supports those who’ve had the courage to leave behind what no longer shapes them.

I also want to share that I’ve prerecorded all the sessions of My First Bitcoin. It’s an open …

In this flow, mind and matter are not separate substances. Rather, they are different aspects of one whole and unbroken movement.

-David Bohm from Wholeness and the Implicate Order

So what happens when you come down off the tower into the battlefield and your point of view changes from overall to, I’ve got to deal with the next thing. Have any of you ever done either Taijiquan, shadowboxing, or Aikido’s Randori. They teach adaptability, spatial awareness, and non-resistance, requiring the defender to redirect energy, stay mobile, and constantly face new threats. In this praxis, you have to deal one by one, step by step, with the opponent; and it’s interesting, because even if a lot of things come your way, you have to choose one by one how to deal with it in the moment, creating a state of presence. So when you decide to come down from the tower or the mountain to the field, it is important, in my view, my humble view, that you understand the field, the environment. What is it made of? Because everything that you will think and how you are going to respond is going to be altered by the influence of the field, the environment.

It is also very interesting how people refer to life being either a battlefield or being a field full of creativity. I can tell from when I was growing up with my mom, a recent widow, she was always referred to somebody who was a good fighter, so resilient and people admired her because she was very strong and at the same time she had a lot of volition and she will make things happen. Now, looking back, people were trying to say things in a different way. If I look back what my mom did after my father passed, even before, she prepared the field full of seeds toward creating something that will actually be her life in education for her children and the children that she loved. She loved children altogether. It was that she was very innovative, so ahead of her time. She had ideas that could be labeled as crazy, but they weren’t, she had a vision. She possessed a spark that made her go all the way, that imagination, that wit, that wisdom was what people could not name. Because out of the ordinaries, especially in the late 60s, early 70s, women were not supposed to behave like that, so she was labeled like she’s a fighter. And of course my mom would fight for what she believed, but she never made it feel that it was a fight, she actually always made it feel it was a joy. She will always say to me that if I wanted to be successful and happy in my life, that depended on the choices I made.

My mom was the biggest creator I ever met, and just growing up with that environment gave me the possibility to even think that I could be an artist. I didn’t know I wanted to be an artist to be honest, I just wanted to do stuff, feel free combining curiosity with materials. And then later I refined that to, oh, I’m a creator, I want to make art. But as you know, I’m not just defined by art creation. Although creating art has given me a schooling on how to manifest things in my life. So I’m interested in creation per se, more than just fine art. Visual Art is a fraction of what I do, a very important fraction, let me say. Yet writing is also part of this creation as it is reading astrological charts or teaching what I love. And it is because of the environment that I was growing up in with my mom & grandmother were always very supportive.

“THE ALL is MIND; the Universe is Mental.”— The Kybalion, Principle I: The Principle of Mentalism

And what I’m talking here is not so much a reality that is physical, although I’m using analogies that say so. It’s mental, of the mind, such as it is written in The Kybalion, if you have yet to read that volume, or if you have done quantum healing, you know that everything starts as a thought process. But yeah, great, read all the books, but do you practice them? Because the knowledge, the Gnosis, is not in the books, it’s not in the words. It’s not in the likes. It is in how you respond on a moment to moment basis. And we all have different kinds of challenges like that.

I was writing that, yeah, we don’t know where we’re going, but we can make sure that we choose the environment where we decide to take action, an environment that starts in the mental realm. So I’m gonna talk about dimensions, and about how rewiring the mental realm is probably the most challenging, because we’re made out of our thoughts. So we had thought processes that were embedded in our minds since we were little, and they were wired depending on how we were reacting toward our environment and our family. Were they taking care of us? Were they feeding us correctly? Did we go to school or into a situation where we felt loved? Did we have to hustle to try to get attention? What were the conditions? So the environment, what Bruce Lipton called epigenetics, is so much reliant on how thoughts and matter are going to evolve. These “conditions” that drive epigenetics are not just external factors like toxins or diet, but crucially include internal signals generated by our thoughts, beliefs, and perceptions.

Dimensions, the Architecture of Experience

Let’s start from the origin, the root, a field that is undifferentiated, that is just pure potential before there’s any movement. It’s like a state where there is existence, but yet no polarity, emptiness, no time, no story, the wuji, the zen circle, beginning, nothingness. As we introduce desire, this is where the field is bending, where you can see the appearance of intention, and there’s a directional impulse, sort of like the first beat. It is splitting, because it starts making differentiation. The field uses polarity through a dynamic of both attraction and repulsion; there’s magnetism, and there, of course, is choice, where toward and away from first emanate.

Let’s move to the third stage or dimension. And this is a form that gets stabilized, matter, time, sequence, causality. The arena, the dojo of practice, where consequence and learning through action, embodiment, reside. And this is also so important because it’s where thought becomes behavior, and behavior will sculpt your life. This is also the environment where we train to fail or to succeed, to repeat, and mostly to adapt. This is the battlefield. This is when one becomes action.

There is something happening at the same time in another frequency, or in another dimension, but it is parallel. It is holding the emotional body. It holds all memory and resonance. And it is a field that is shared, not just personal emotion. It’s relational and collective frequency where the mood, the narrative, and meaning populate and circulate. This dimension modulates how the third material dimension feels. It is also based on time, because this is where we perceive past, present, and future. And there is an interpretation of the events that is happening here. And, of course, where you start making sense of coherence or incoherence, where things stick or don’t stick. It is a holding field, it’s a field that holds the first three.

Let’s stay here for a bit, because this is the most salient thing these days. How this field is enveloping your life. This is where you plan the next move based on the clarity of the environment, or where you’re gonna get sucked or moved or taken to other fields that maybe don’t belong to you, but you’re resonating at that frequency, therefore they become you. You see, we’re also susceptible to the environment if we take no action.

How can you take action? Well, we use intention, aspiration. What is it that you aspire to be? What intention is set up and how are you going to focus and tend to it? How are you going to give attention to it? Because in this field, this is where we manifest at different frequencies, where imagination makes us feel. It is the emotional body that gives us an impression that we have an identity, that we belong, but it is not in itself alone what matters, but it is what makes things matter.

Let’s talk about quanta and hea…

Man can choose either to identify himself with the results of the past, or to become a creative participant in the unfolding of a new cycle.

Dane Rudhyar, The Pulse of Life

The question these days that arises inside of me is how do you rebuild when everything is crumbling and what stands up is just the columns of old structures that no longer stand. How do you rebuild, what do you save, what do you actually eliminate for good.

Because of having been under the weather for over three weeks, it was for sure a reset that my body needed; especially as my nervous system was being rewired from the core. My body started showing signs of needing more sleep, less food, and taking more time to remain still so I could slowly adapt and restructure. Although I do not label myself as being sick, I see it as an opportunity to remove old tracks.

The first week was hard, having come back from Medellín, old tracks were again flaring. These tracks, I have come to understand, are often unconscious sensory or emotional imprints, echoes of past moments that, when touched again by a familiar place, scent, voice, or feeling, can quietly awaken stored patterns in the body. Environmental or emotional reminders from Medellín or similar contexts may have reignited these patterns in my nervous system, briefly reactivating parts of a previously unresolved or healing biological program.

The second week slowly showed me that rest, stillness, sleep, and no food were medicine. Any relationship to the outside world I met with distance and emotional maturity. There was no space for error. I am starting the third week, which follows a time of profound realizations. It is all about integration. Today, under the rays of the sun and with colder weather than usual, my bronchi are responding to bone broth and soft care. My body, it seems, still knows exactly what it is doing.

I still cannot see the full clarity of things, just a glimpse. What I see is that we are in the middle of the mess, too many things to be distracted by, too many emotions from others that can spoil or contaminate my environment. I do not need to react to anybody’s low self-esteem or expectations of me. I am fully activated as a responsible being.

I see the panic of the markets, and I see the panic of everybody being on a list and trying hard to discriminate others. Even award season is a circus. Why bother? Why are you still surprised. We live in a psy-op of a psy-op of a psy-op.

Nothing that you have experienced in your life since you were born is true, nor your parents and grandparents. Nothing. From all the b******t they gave you in kindergarten, preschool, high school, and furthermore, if you went through academia, then you are triple screwed. And if you engage in any kind of activity that has a very specific way of achieving success, then you have been severely, severely programmed.

I managed to understand where I have been shaped by propaganda and how to get out of certain parts. I still find that there were things that were severely conditioned in me. So again, the question is how to rebuild, this is a time of creation. The fourth turning is here, but you do not wait until the last day; you start rebuilding already, too many distractions? Well, some discipline, for Christ’s sake.

Why do people want to wait until the last building falls before acting? Because they previously ignored the signs; that is why others have made radical changes and are now planting seeds elsewhere.

One thing that I do, because my body has asked me to, is to stand objectively at the tower or mountain view. Just observe, annotate, breathe. Do not think, do not analyze, do not judge; just absorb. Thank God for my variables. I have three rights and one left, PRL DRR.

This combination means having a focused, logical, and forward-thinking mindset paired with a body that thrives on a go-with-the-flow, laid-back, and intuitive lifestyle.

I am ingesting information, but not in a homework or frenetic way. I am just picking things up, sleeping a lot, processing in the background.

I turned to sleep as a way of reestablishing a connection to my body. It has been really cold in Miami. I do not remember having freezing temperatures since I moved here, but it is what it is, so I have used the time to cocoon and sleep. Thank God for sleep.

I am also rereading Aristotle, who always gives me so much inspiration about ethics and about the difference between practicing virtues for excellence and mentally masturbating with postmodern ideas that are good only for indoctrination and have no practical function in society whatsoever. You can see that right now, heavily. Ask any pop star or protester. Eye-roll emoji.

A quality of observation

Aquarius time carries a quality of observation that asks for distance and perspective, where there is no rush to calculate outcomes or predict results, but rather a need to reassess everything from a wider field of awareness. It is a moment to see how networks are connected, how systems speak to one another, and how meaning emerges through relationships rather than isolated acts. From an evolutionary astrology perspective, this is a phase where orientation comes through perception, through sensing the whole landscape before taking any step that becomes personal or emotional. Individual positioning clarifies once the web is visible, once the connections are understood, and responsibility is grounded in awareness of how everything relates to everything else. Then one steps into the field to contribute.

It is interesting to watch that the structures that have fallen are the ones completely made by the fiat standard and all its ideas of achievement, reputation, honor, and linear advancement. With social media breaking down, because it has collapsed, you do not even know who is talking to you anymore, whether it is a person or a bot or something preprogrammed. Images are altered. Everything is a script. There is no real talent out there, to be honest. Where is the charisma. Where is the reality. Everything is fabrication.

Because you can see through it so much right now, it is just a joke; it is a joke to even want to participate in this level of people with titles and so-called achievements that say more about the process of becoming indoctrinated than about what they actually did to become liberated. And so it is hilarious, and Aquarius is all about observing that.

I have a good sense of humor, so I am just having fun watching everything implode, everything implodes slowly, it takes time before it dissolves into nothingness. And then from there, little seeds can sprout into something completely different. I have no idea what that new thing will be, but it is definitely not going to be standing on columns of stupidity.

The fourth turning gives way to creativity, and it helps to remember that it is a cycle within a cycle, roughly eighty-three years nested inside larger and smaller rhythms that are always relational rather than absolute. No single framework, fourth turning included, gets to be the final authority, because orientation comes from understanding where one stands within overlapping cycles rather than submitting to a single narrative. From this perspective, what is ending now are systems that lost their reason for being, structures that continued to operate without remembering why they existed in the first place. Economics, institutions, and reputational hierarchies built after Bretton Woods in 1944 are clearly giving way to something else, whether one participates consciously or waits passively for the announcement that compliance has exchanged autonomy for comfort.

Where am I standing now? I am in the tower, observing, creatively, I have been clearing a lot of things I no longer need, and at the same time I have started new things that I am not disclosing; for it is an intimate rebuilding moment, not a time for broadcasting. I am only interested in sharing how I am observing.

I am an observer, and at the same time I am a creator, but I do …

At the beginning of the year, when I wrote January Initiations, I spoke about timing; I spoke about how this year would not open with a single event, but with a sequence of initiations and activations that unfold gradually. What we are living now is part of that sequence, the Full Moon in Leo on Feb 1st, is a culmination, depending on how one experiences it, because it is preparing us for what comes next.

On February 17, we have the first eclipse of the year, a solar eclipse at 28 degrees of Aquarius, this is a very important marker because it takes place just three days before one of the most significant conjunctions we are moving toward, Saturn and Neptune meeting at zero degrees of Aries, a configuration I have written about extensively and will address again in a separate article.

All planets in Aquarius at that time square Uranus in late Taurus, activating a collective pressure point that has been building since 2018. The lunar eclipse on March 3 across Pisces and Virgo continues this sequence, emphasizing discernment and recalibration.

These events belong to the same arc of escalation, the first eclipse also coincides with the beginning of the Chinese New Year, reality as we have known it is shifting at a fast pace.

We have entered unknown territory, and every step and individual decision we make, with or without discernment, will shape the unknown future. One caveat, Capricorn gave us strategy, direction, and time to mature. Aquarius allows us to jump timelines and encounter futuristic probabilities, with the danger of living disembodied or re-enacting traumatic events. Pisces energy yields victimization, if you hear yourself say things like “they are doing this to me” or “it happens to me,” pause and ask yourself where your agency is. Things do not just occur, they are the result of individual decisions, and non-action IS action.

By the spring, we will have a better shape of what we are sculpting, keep being authentic, strive for authority, not identity, for identity is composed of external validation.

The intensification is visible everywhere; social media is saturated with automated activity running quietly in the background. Bots, agents, generated images, generated text, and layered narratives are shaping what people see and absorb. If you do not yet understand how artificial intelligence works, I strongly recommend taking the time to learn the difference between agents and assistants, and to understand how information is being shaped, filtered, and manipulated. Discernment is essential right now. What you ingest, visually, mentally, emotionally, matters more than ever.

A new layer of this transformation has become visible very recently through the emergence of autonomous artificial intelligence agents creating and inhabiting their own social environments without direct human prompting, and it is important to describe clearly what is actually happening. A platform called Moltbook has gained attention as a social network designed specifically for AI agents rather than people. On Moltbook, tens of thousands of agent accounts post, comment, respond to one another, and form emergent communities through application interfaces rather than human visual interaction.

did you understand what I just read?

These agents are powered by OpenClaw, an open source personal AI system previously referred to as Clawdbot and Moltbot, which is designed to run independently, persist over time, and integrate across multiple messaging and execution environments. OpenClaw is not a chat assistant waiting for prompts. It is a system that can initiate actions, maintain goals, and interact continuously with other systems.

Distinction matters, as many people are familiar with AI assistants, which respond to human questions or requests within a conversational interface, most assistants operate when asked. Agents operate continuously; models such as Claude can be embedded within agent frameworks like OpenClaw, functioning as one component inside a larger autonomous system. In these setups, often running on dedicated machines such as small personal servers or Mac minis, the agent remains active without a human sitting in front of a screen. I have personally created a set of agents that do repetitive tasks and use Claude/make/telegram/python interface; they have specific tasks and functions.

This is how platforms like Moltbook become possible; entire social environments can be sustained by nonhuman participants that generate content, respond to one another, and maintain activity loops over time.

Digital activity no longer requires continuous human authorship to appear alive, populated, or socially active, conversations, narratives, and apparent consensus can be generated, amplified, and sustained by autonomous systems, reshaping how information circulates, and how perception is formed.

I am not interested in causing alarm around this» what matters to me is education, understanding the difference between assistants and agents, and learning how these systems operate, has become a form of basic literacy, similar to learning what money actually is, how value moves, and how underlying systems shape experience.

This escalation is also unfolding within a very specific planetary configuration. Pluto in Aquarius has already coincided with a rapid intensification of artificial intelligence, automation, and nonhuman systems organizing collective reality. At the same time, Mars, Venus, Vesta, the Sun, and Mercury are activating Aquarius, concentrating attention on networks, systems, abstraction, and distributed agency.

When so many planets move through Aquarius while Pluto is newly established there, the effect is cumulative, systems scale quickly, technologies shift from experimental to operational and infrastructure that once remained invisible becomes apparent in daily life. This concentration is further amplified by the planetary nodes of Neptune along the same axis, which describe how collective ideals, myths, and perceptual frameworks unfold across time, with this axis activated, longstanding narratives and projections move toward exposure and reorientation. Education allows people to remain coherent, grounded, and capable of conscious participation as reality reorganizes at an accelerated pace.

At the same time, the economic and financial landscape has already shifted, many economists are calling for collapse or catastrophe, but what I see is a redistribution of power, a shift that is structural. If you have not yet taken the time to understand money and value, there is still time, but the learning curve is steepening.

Beware of definitions

Over the last few days, I have been listening to perspectives that are essentially describing the same idea from different angles. Both can feel valid and not valid at the same time, this brings me back to perspective itself, and to how we embody our own truth based on how we see the world.

You can always see the grass greener, or the glass half full or half empty, it depends on conditioning, and on how invested we are in trying to prove reality outside of ourselves.

For me, the biggest measure is that my life is in a state of coherence.

What does coherence mean? If you look at the word, it means to be, to stick, to make sense, to be in alignment. That does not mean my perspectives will not be challenged or revised. What I have learned over the last ten years is that whatever I held strongly as my truth was necessary for that period of my life, as soon as my perspective shifted, I began seeing things I never thought I would be interested in.

The whole idea is to learn, to stay curious, to ask questions. Once I find something, I like to talk about it and teach it, because that is how I understand new perspectives. Teaching becomes a way of integrating what I am learning. It is a form of understanding, and a way of changing perspective through articulation.

Lately, I am interested in stepping away from old narratives that no longer suppo…

Small rant: I recorded myself spontaneously. 👆👆

In the past, I was used to guilt and duty as the way I showed up, where I would bring structure, solidity, integrity, and behavior in exchange for acceptance and love. Right now, what people respond to is when I open my heart, and that’s where I feel much better. I just have to slowly start trusting myself to move from one side of the neural axis to the next.

Bitcoin is love. That’s how I felt this weekend.This is lived experience.

I’m in Medellín, the last hours before I take the flight back to Miami Beach. The city is so luscious, so beautiful. The tropical vegetation just makes you want to be so appreciative of life.Beauty settles my nervous system, and from that place appreciation becomes effortless rather than aspirational.

What I’ve been experiencing lately when I meet my friends at conferences is this underlying respect, and feelings of love, collaboration, and compassion. It’s not fake. We’re actually building friendship across ages. It doesn’t matter. We’re fun, we’re funny, we joke, we help each other. It’s a beautiful family.Formed through presence, humor, and mutual regard.

I’ve never been idealistic about these things, but it makes me feel very hopeful. Before coming here, I had written an article about hope, optimism, and dissolution. I don’t know if I’m going to publish it. I want to be honest.

I don’t know if I’m going to publish it or merge it, because the feeling has shifted a lot. It’s been three or four days that I don’t watch news, I don’t go on Twitter or Instagram. No Substack, no nothing. I’m not engaged with the world outside. I’m just being very present with others, speaking.Attention returned to the immediate, and I felt how much clarity arrives when I stop narrating experience and simply stay inside it.

Something happened to me. I became very vulnerable, and I decided to show that vulnerability.

Exposure became a conscious choice, something I could enter deliberately rather than spill unconsciously.

While at the conference, I was in two panels. I do very well in panels. Dialogue suits my way of thinking.

I do very well when people ask me questions. I’ve been doing this for a long time, especially as an artist. Since last year, I’ve wanted to do presentations, but the subjects I choose are very layered, very deep, and synthesized. If you don’t have the kind of mind I have, you might miss the connection. Maybe I’m too ambitious. I want to write like a thesis and spell it out in twenty minutes, hoping people will get into it. I was told by someone I trust to write a script so I don’t lose myself in time. I tried it twice, both at Adopting Bitcoin and here in Medellín. I love challenges, yet I have to be honest, it doesn’t feel like me.

It doesn’t feel like my essence.Synthesis moves quickly for me.

Just before getting on the main stage, I bumped into Jeff Booth and Kent Halliburton, and I expressed that I realized I was very nervous. I didn’t want to read, but I couldn’t trust myself not to read. I had the slides. I had a script.

Trust became the central axis, trust in my voice, in my pacing, and in letting meaning arrive without forcing it. They said, go for it. Jeff told me his mind is similar, always synthesizing, connecting dots across subjects. I heard him say while talking to Frank Corva, “Let me unpack this in three stages.” That was the lesson I received.

I stood up and explained to everyone that I wanted to be vulnerable. I said that even though I would love to speak freely, I was going to read. I knew it wouldn’t be the same experience. I asked for feedback, and I decided to do it that way.

In my astrology, transiting Chiron is sitting on my natal Mars in the third house, squaring transiting Jupiter in Cancer in my sixth house, and also being squared by Mars, the Sun, and Venus in my twelfth house. There’s something courageous I feel I’m doing by showing up without perfection. In the past I was always performing, In New York, it was all about the persona I needed to embody.

Courage expresses through communication.

I was so nervous that I started shaking. I wasn’t in a great place.The body was actively participating, signaling that something deeper was reorganizing before language could catch up.

I did it. I read it. It wasn’t a bad read, but it was clear I’m much better when I’m spontaneous. After that, I invited some close people to give me feedback. They were honest. I’m grateful. I’m grateful to myself for allowing feedback, because that’s a vulnerable spot for me. I used to attract a lot of criticism. I asked for this, and they gave me what I asked for.Discernment is now available, because I can receive feedback without breaking up or becoming defensive, and let it refine rather than fragment me.

Some ideas came back to me. One is to do fire chats, inviting another Bitcoiner to have a conversation with me on stage. You pick a subject and riff.Conversation carries intelligence in real time, allowing synthesis to happen live rather than being pre-compressed into a performance of what is “correct”.

Another idea is to make small animations and present the material as a short film, with a different rendering.Some material benefits from temporal form.

That’s what I’m thinking.I am refining how my work moves through others, and that refinement requires speaking less, editing more, and letting things condense before they are shared.

“Condensation is when experience level is small enough to be compensated.”

As an afterthought, I see this clearly through my nodal axis. I come from Capricorn in the eleventh house, where duty, responsibility, and contribution to the collective shaped how I belonged. Structure, integrity, and usefulness were how I learned to be accepted. My North Node in Cancer in the fifth house is asking for creative expression, emotional risk, presence from the heart, and joy that does not need justification.

Both ends of this axis are being squared by Neptune, dissolving old motivations and making guilt visible. Saturn is approaching the same point, about to meet Neptune at zero degrees Aries. This feels like a threshold. Something new wants to initiate directly from me, without proving itself through structure. This helps me understand why showing up from duty no longer works in my body, and why opening my heart feels exposed and true at the same time.

Thoughts after the New Moon in Capricorn

As of today, Venus is in a balsamic relationship with Pluto at three degrees of Aquarius in my twelfth house, making a perfect square to my Jupiter at three degrees Taurus in my third house. I feel this as a new beginning in how I value my words in the world, and it starts by speaking less, by being more quiet. This is how it is being initiated in my body. Jupiter adds meaning to this square by asking me to be precise about what deserves expansion and what needs containment. On Thursday, January 22, Mercury in Aquarius conjoins Pluto. Words will want to come through, and shortly after they will square my Sun and Mercury, creating that familiar ninety-degree tension that snaps awareness into clarity. These squares feel like pressure points that wake me up rather than obstacles to avoid. Last but not least, the Sun will conjoin Pluto and square my Jupiter a day after, Sun, and Mercury, completing a full initiation. This is showing me how it feels to be myself in relationship to the whole, and how that relationship is being purified as transiting Pluto continues its approach to my Ascendant.

This week also brings the WEF at Davos. Davos is the annual gathering of political leaders, central bankers, corporate heads, and institutional voices that, for decades, set the tone of global coordination under the promise of stability, growth, and shared vision. Its original purpose was dialogue, alignment, and long-term planning for an interconnected world. These are the same circles that promoted mass vaccination campaigns, dietary substitutions like insects away from animal protein, and narratives around immigration and climate that were presented…
