Hi everyone!Today I address questions that I get OFTEN about navigating the fear and anxiety that can come with knowledge of astrology.While astrology offers patterns, insights, and cosmic cycles, true peace comes from surrendering to the wisdom of the Universe itself. We reflect on how leaning into faith can calm fear, open the heart, and attune us to a supported path - even if we can't see it clearly in the moment. This conversation is an invitation to release control and identity. It is to support you in remembering that astrology is a tool - and to walk with courage knowing that the universe holds us, guides us, and conspires for us.YOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

When journalist Cheng Lei was detained by Chinese state security agents, she thought would be freed within the week. Instead, she was held on absurd espionage charges for more than three years, much of that time spent in isolation.When Cheng Lei moved back to the country of her birth after the dramatic opening up of China to the world, she was a part of something exciting and historic.That all changed after Xi Jinping came to power, and Australia's relations with China deteriorated.In this first episode of a two-part series, Lei explains how eventually, she found herself detained on bogus espionage charges, and held for more than three years in a Chinese detention centre.For the first six months of her detention, Lei was isolated and alone except for the rotating female guards who stood over her 24 hours a day.Lei was not allowed to speak to these guards, she was forced to sit on the edge of her bed for 14 hours a day, she had to ask permission to do anything, she was not allowed to close her eyes and intermittently she was taken to a room, tied down in a chair and interrogated about allegedly sharing state secrets with foreigners.Lei learned how to ration books, she practised German vocabulary, wrote scripts in her head and thought of her two children to stay sane under torturous conditions.Further informationCheng Lei: A Memoir of Freedom is published by HarperCollins.Cheng Lei: My Story is a documentary made by Sky News Australia.

In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Robert & Emily Perry dive into the question so many of us are asking: How do we stay spiritually grounded in a world that feels increasingly unhinged? Drawing from Course teachings, Robert & Emily introduce a 3-step process for navigating these turbulent times with clarity, compassion, and conviction. This conversation challenges the idea that spiritual practice means disengagement from the world. Instead, it affirms that Course students are called to show up—clear-eyed, open-hearted, and rooted in love. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

Talking with repeat guest, author and local Hawaii resident Charles Hugh Smith on the importance of living in the real world, insights from the scientific process, experimentation for incremental change, building your own utility, self reliance, behavioral modification, questioning the mythology of progress, anti-progress, technology worship, the value of something, economic externalities, Aina, AI and AI Gods, Digital Ice Nice, social change, social engineering, collective value systems, and strategies for staying sane in a digital world… Excerpts“ ​Try to live in the real world as much as possible because then you're more likely to avoid the derangement. And again, a back to basics is my approach. Question everything that you're doing your behaviors. Are they benefiting you or not? And if they're not benefiting you, then how can you modify them? Incremental is the way to go. To use the Daoist phrase: The journey of 1000 miles starts with a single step. Everything we do to improve our lives is incremental. It's possible to revolutionize your life. And if that opportunity exists and for sure, go for it. But for most of us, incremental is how we change.Accepting that we can change a lot by our behaviors, what we think of as priorities and incentives. That's how we change. We don't necessarily need a new life, per se. We just need to change our behaviors and what we value.”“ And I think the problem is not technology per se. It's our worship. In other words we're like blindly obedient to it. And in other words to the idea in the mythology of progress.” “ Because there are limits and to claim there that you have limitless power is to set yourself up for the fall…. it's actually a psychological failing as well. You don't have to believe in karma or religion. If you aspire or claim godlike powers, then you're setting yourself up for self destruction just psychologically because it's disconnected from reality”“ I tend to see things more as organic - that these systems are complicated.There's a lot of dynamics. We're not really in a position to control as much as we think is, my view and that, it's better to let people make their own decisions. And if it's if it stops working for them, then they're gonna open their mind and be willing to try something else.”Follow Charles Hugh Smith @ oftwominds.comOn Twitter @@chsm1thOn Substack @ charleshughsmith.substack.com/Timestamps02:18 Exploring Solar Energy: Projects and ExperimentsCharles shares his experiences with solar energy projects, discussing the economic challenges of solar power at small scales and importance of self-reliance, focusing on reducing dependence on fragile global supply chains.10:04 Behavioral Changes for Energy EfficiencyCharles details his efforts of behavioral changes rather than technology. 23:56 The Value of ExperimentationHe emphasizes the importance of experimentation as a tool for understanding and adapting to change, whether in personal resilience, self-employment, or daily consumption29:13 Questioning the Mythology of ProgressCharles challenges the conventional view that technological advancements and economic growth always equal progress. He argues that progress can sometimes be anti-progress when it degrades quality of life or damages the planet.33:36 Objective Analysis of Progress and Anti-ProgressTo break free from blind faith in progress, Charles advocates for an objective assessment of technological and economic developments, considering both benefits and negative consequences rather than uncritically accepting advancements.36:14 Technology Worship and Its ConsequencesTechnology is often worshiped as an unstoppable force, arguing that society needs to question its trajectory rather than passively accepting every technological development as progress.43:35 AI and the Mythology of ProgressCharles discusses how AI fits into the broader mythology of progress, highlighting the misplaced belief that AI advancements are inherently beneficial. He critiques the economic incentives driving AI development and the illusion of intelligence in machine learning models.47:28 The Limits of AI and Human IntelligenceHe examines the limitations of AI, particularly its inability to truly understand or possess human-like intelligence. He also critiques the misconception that intelligence is purely rational, emphasizing the role of emotions in human cognition.50:27 A New Mythology for the 21st CenturyCharles proposes that humanity needs a new guiding mythology that acknowledges limits rather than blindly embracing technological expansion. He suggests shifting status away from excessive consumption and toward sustainable, meaningful contributions to society.01:03:21 Social Change and the Role of TechnologyHe explores how social change happens organically with contrasts of top-down efforts to engineer social change.01:08:42 Staying Sane in a Digital WorldIn closing, Charles advises treating the digital world cautiously—like plutonium—while prioritizing real-world experiences and behavioral changes.

When I was writing Beyond Anxiety, I wanted to find a good metaphor for building a life that you love within the cultural bounds of wherever you are and still stay sane. And I thought about crazy quilting!If you are a quilter, you know that crazy quilting is not the same as ordinary quilting. Ordinary quilting starts with a pattern that is carefully drawn out, and then the quilter sews together panels that follow that pattern. With crazy quilting, you start with a scrap of fabric you love, and you sew another piece to it and then another and another, around and around in a spiral, until there’s a large enough piece of cloth that you can call a quilt. And I was thinking: That’s sort of how you can make a life, too.In this episode of The Gathering Room, I’m talking about what I call “sanity quilting” and offering up some practical advice for maintaining your mental well-being during turbulent times. Like crazy quilting, sanity quilting involves building a life out of the things you love in order to stay peaceful, calm, inspired, and sane. In the quilt that is your time—your whole life—most of us are taught to follow the patterns set by our culture: Get a job, get a relationship, have a family, buy a house, etc.However, for me, it’s always been much more interesting to say, “What do I love most?” and put that at the center of my quilt. Then I put things that connect with it around the edges until I gradually fill up my time with things that I love. That’s the way I’ve lived my life.The culture might view this as “crazy,” but I don’t think it’s not crazy to do what you love. What’s crazy is pushing what you love to the margins of your life—or even worse, never experiencing them at all. Whenever the pattern of society that we thought we knew is being disrupted, it feels very confronting to a lot of people. At the times when everything around you feels like it’s going crazy, that’s when you must make a sanity quilt. And you do that in very quiet ways.Join me for the full episode to learn more about stitching the things you love into your life, so you can cultivate peace, sanity, and calm during even the most challenging times.

The word “sane” at its root means “free from mental disturbance.” So how can we free ourselves from mental disturbance in the midst of a world that is swirling with it? While we cannot stop the insanity we see happening in our world and the people within it, there are things we can do to stay sane, sustained, centered and focused on what matters.  In this episode, Christine and Jennifer share four practices for Staying Sane in an Insane World. These are practices to put into place proactively, in how we design our lives, the way we work, think, and operate. They are simple yet mighty structures that will hold us and keep us centered no matter what is happening around us. Here they are: Create Conversate & Council Center & Connect to Your Core Clear Your Field Our practices give us the space to have our human emotions and release them out of our system so that we can respond from an elevated, higher-frequency, more humane consciousness that opens up people and possibility vs. creating more polarity and unhelpful chaos. Our practices give us wisdom, so that we can use our life force to create the world we desire for ourselves, each other, and those we love, lead, and influence. Between now and the next episode, Christine and Jennifer invite you to contemplate the inquiry: What practices am I playing with to stay centered, and how do I feel as a result of playing with these practices?
