Connect the Dots with Aria

The element of water is often related to our emotions. It is also the element of deep connectivity where we realize our healing—both personal and collective. On the New Moon in Pisces , every one of us has the opportunity to align our inner waters with the waters of our world. My favourite Moon in Pisces activity is to draw myself a bath. Lit by only a candle, I often speak out what I am carrying...

Our problems and dramas are created through a fragmented or disjointed view of Creation and our place in it. New Earth solutions that are unifying, compassionate and healing come from celebrating union within us. The festival I mentioned in the video is called MahaShivratri, which falls as the Moon transits Aquarius today. The activity I mentioned in the video On a piece of paper, write down 3 thi...

We can’t control or adjust what is pre-conscious. We we can do is be open, willing and build awareness to tune-into subtle messages, especially as they manifest through the physical body or our physical environments. As the Moon transits for a couple of days through the Earth sign of Capricorn, we get to integrate our lower (denser) natures and take care of our physicalities. If you are just joini...

Learning to relate to Formlessness supports us with creation and manifestation. The Moon in Sagittarius is all about being in right relationship to our thoughts, beliefs and mentality. But, how do we get in right relationship to our thoughts when they are unconscious? How do we know, what we cannot know? If you are just joining us— welcome! Through the 2025 Pisces season, we are following the zodi...

Through 2025’s Pisces Season, we are journeying through Formlessness , the unseen and unknown depths of our pre-consciousness. Formlessness, like manifestation, is an aspect of Creation. We need to be in right relationship with it. Why? Because on the path of self-liberation, we need to learn radical acceptance of what we cannot know and control. To this end, we are following the zodiacal guidance...

From Aquarius… We are coming to the end of the Inner Revolution journey , through the weeks of Aquarius season, and transitioning into the cosmic waters of Pisces. Though the Sun is shifting signs, the revolution to tune-into our inner guide, our temple or monastery within is still very much alive. The last petal or gateway, as I understand on the path of the Quantum Human is Ascension . When we e...

Dark nights and deep awakenings may seem eternal, but they do have an end. All things do. With the Sun (our conscious mind) still moving through Aquarius, this week we have the Moon (our unconscious) burning brightly in Leo (our Soul’s creative pursuits), which is Aquarius’s opposite. This firey Leo energy brings in a period of risk, sprouting and growth. I call this the Acceleration phase on the...

This week we are feeling into the second petal or gateway into the Quantum Human . We move from the firey Activation place, to the the earth and soil of our being, in the phase of Sustained Awakening. Coming to ground, deepening into the soil and rooting into our present reality, in our body is often challenging for the mind and the personality. Yet, we only ever enjoy true liberation, when we hav...

Today, joining the Sun and Pluto in sign of the water-bearer, is Mercury and the New Moon. This can feel like a lot of mental energy—wild new thoughts, atypical solutions to problems we’ve had for a while, sudden and unexpected synchronicities—all of which sound like a good time. Excess mental energy, which is always in it’s activated state does burn out, cause over-thinking, and a slow detachment...

As the Sun and Pluto start their journey in the sign of Aquarius, we are inviting in the energies of the Inner Revolution. I call this the Quantum Human, or living as the Quantum Self, where the decisions and direction in our lives comes more from our inner knowing authority, rather than the chaos of the outer world. The way through, is in. And the way in, is a bit of an unfolding spiral (because...

What does time FEEL like to you? What is its texture through your day? And, how is feeling into time, essential and actually a more efficient way to navigate our realities? In this video, we take a little trip through the space-time continuum and learn to feel our way through the unpredictable and unknown. Astrological Transits in this video include: * The Jupiter Effect—amplifying electro-magneti...

We all want to manifest our desires and dreams and live as powerful, awesome Creators! But when we dream, intend and action things, and they don’t happen as time passes, what happens to all our creative, infinite energy? Time is one of the three dimensions we get to learn and play with, as part of 3D reality (the other two being space and matter). In exploring this relationship, we get to see who...

The New Moon in Capricorn opens up a little contemplation of our relationship and experience with time, especially with the coming to 2025. In this video I share a short passage from a Alan Lightman’s Einstein’s Dreams. Capricorn energy is often felt as heavily material, obvious, and 3D. Its metaphysical aspects are usually hidden just behind. So it is with our relationship with time, which may se...

To You, radically awesome Being, All the light and sparkles to you and yours this Winter Solstice. This short video includes reminders and invocations of peace, reflection, gratitude, (YES to you!), and a little more! Thank you for supporting and subscribing to Connect the Dots. Here’s a little poll for you. What should we explore in 2025? You can choose an option below, leave a comment, DM me or...

This week between the Full Moon in Gemini and the Winter Solstice reminds us to reclaim the power of Play . Accessing the energy of our Inner Child, is a delightful and efficient way out of our stressful, chaotic, over-thinking habits and patterns. One of things we get to play with, is Time. In this final video exploring the Way of the Mystic, we get to bridge our experience of time as a construct...

The Gemini Full Moon is on December 15th. 2024. It’s a truly delightful invitation we receive from the Universe to bring our higher and lower minds into coherence, through the transformational practice of Allowance. Separating our spiritual self, activities and perspectives from those are not, requires that build walls of separation in our minds. The Mystic within us delights in what is temporaril...

In exploring Mysticism, we eventually have to face Great Mysteries, and the roots of our deep-seated, often ancient beliefs and patterns that lie there. One such root I had to face is the abandonment of a Higher Power that I felt. In this video I share the emotional journey of my experience with this, the process of acceptance and Alchemy, and bridging consciousness between problem/ lower self and...

In Sagittarius season we are exploring the theme of Mysticism —a path to deep compassion where the paradoxes of life can be reconciled, lovingly. Through Sagittarius season we have an opportunity to synthesize our lessons from the year and build integrated inner learning and perspectives that are more whole. Join me over these next few weeks as we explore how our Inner Mystic , within us, can supp...

I did a LIVE podcast on the Full Moon in Taurus which I’m thrilled to share here, because it gives a practical lived experience of the concepts we’ve been exploring here in Connect the Dots. I open with my general love of alchemy and how I use it to navigate emotional reality in the moment. The emotive doorway I talk about is frustration, annoyance and irritation, which is very prevalent these day...

I re-started online dating some weeks ago. It is often not a place that feels particularly powerful. For me, my past with dating held the template where power lay solely with my needs and wants. After a while, it evolved and started to lie with other people (whether they wanted it or not). I built up compensation mechanisms for that lack of self-power in bizarre ways. When I think about an upcomin...

I’ve been dating for the last few months and have felt disinterest, short-lived excitement and frustrations. This led me to face some inner truths, especially around wounding and projecting on others. This is what I learned: when the locus of our power stems from our need, our lack and unmet desire, it has complete power over us. When we project this on others, they often fail to meet our expectat...

I got some comments and questions on Honouring the Dead and our Ancestors. I appreciate your questions and your shares, thank you! I decided to dropping a little video about how I’m moving with this. November 1st is Th Day of the Dead and Samhain. Across cultures there are thousands of vibrant festivals, water or fire rituals and, somber prayer practices enacted this time of year to prepare us for...

This video starts with a small honouring to our Ancestors, the ones who have walked before us. I share this because when we accept where we have come from, we get to know who we are and can make more empowered choices on where we want to go. We then move into the power and transformation animal archetypes to help us figure out where we are sourcing our power from, and how it moves through us in di...

As Libra season gives way to Scorpio, we meet the trinity of Truth, Power and Transformation with this archetype. In this video, we look at the power-over dynamic which we see almost everywhere in our world, that we have inherited, and that is probably still alive for each of us. I share some ways we can recognize when we are reacting or acting from this place, and how to leverage the trinity of T...

In this episode of Connect the Dots, we explore one of the paths of initiation for the Libra archetype through the Ancient Greek myth of Tiresias—a blind prophet who was known across the realms as a true diplomat and peace-maker. Our story looks at how he came to be this way, through the blending of oppositional forces. We then move into what comes after ‘merging’, which is individuation. We canno...
