    Hello kindred spirit! ✨ Today I'm talking about some of my favorite topics - fate vs free will, stoic philosophy and Hellenistic astrology! I hope this uplifts, inspires and makes you feel ALL the magic - both within yourself and this beautifully timed world 🦋

    As an astrologer and human design analyst as well as life long philosophical mind.. I have pondered with this question for some time now! And I truly feel that all we can do is notice the correlation between the cosmos and the events we experience in our lives. We have a map essentially when we’re born. But yes, we ultimately have NO FREE WILL, because we are not a separate being from the one being that is in all things.. this is a nondualism philosophy that I’ve surrendered to recently. And yes it’s magical and poetic - just like that RuMi quote you mentioned!❤

    Many belief systems are basically the same with subtle differences that sometimes are just superficial. I appreciate your perspective. I had many similar ones growing up & in my earlier years & they served me in that phase of my life, as I'm sure they do you now. In time we start to look at things differently because although life is indeed magical, it's also complicated in ways we can't, nor do we have the emotional capacity to, comprehend in our early years. The magic or poetic nature of things becomes a little less important as we make room for a level of realism that allows us to forgive deep trespasses, forgive ourselves & others for our humanity and we realize that WE ACTUALLY KNOW SO LITTLE. We no longer try to comprehend the vastness of life & we let go as a way of life.

    I loved this video, I have chris’ book and course and I love your passion when you speak about it! I am a Baby astrologer but I am fluent in human design and gene keys and all of this makes sense, because hd is about “no choice” so it makes me giggle the amount of people who still believe and try to manifest their daily lives. It’s so much more peaceful to believe in fate/no choice.

    Have you tried using magic to avoid or at least diminish the bad? This is a way to give destiny a favorable direction, as much as possible.
    You certainly can't change fate radically, but you don't need to activate everything bad about it. Sometimes magic goes further than making a choice about whether or not to do this or that. Try it!

    Agree with all the points, if a person is meant to live at some place and experience the situations whether good or bad, it is not in the person's hand.

  • @TheFuture36520

    In my views, this world is in constant conflict.
    Man vs nature.
    nations vs nations.
    race wars.
    We may walk on same grounds but actually are on different levels of soul evolution in terms of either physical or consciousness.

    and when the transit/.. is happening 'now the alchemizing (understanding what's going on -like the song i re-heard yesterday&today) involves leveling'up 'ness, making for more connection (ie the bEtter life we're seeking ;))
    (moreover:)
    because the levelling (that an awakening soul induces, typically) & leveling'up (if you thus choose to understand,'compassionalize',love) is how'it'goes & what'its'all'about, the more/'accurate'er (or/and perhaps benevolent-er) you can see what it is -of Each 'thing'/moment in life is'what'i'mean- the more /more(good'kind'of')intense you lIve.
    come to phrase it like this also right'this'moment (content'i'am i come to this): you/there'are'many can have an easy life (ahum: less plutonian), livin',lovin' vibin 'knowing it's what life is about, justly so (meaning: avoided rabbit'holes) but this 'selfdevelopment'stuff' in'the'form'of 'evolutionary'astr.-approach is also 'REALLY worthwhile/the'point'of'life (if you can manage relative balance, the challenge for all).
    i love (")terence mckenna's quote("): the felt presence of immediate experience .., .. + astrology (on which he made just-as-awesome remarks /tidbits i've never come across before And like'I'would'word scodge 12th,1st, gem,leo,virgo style) = you fella(reader) feel 'reassured' you're (')smart(') in taking this on as a passion /learning/'avenue(of'interest) (is what i convey to reader).
    you paint(ed) such a good picture, helena (really meaningful to me /we, i hadn't thought so after past3youtubeyears; 's like an anti -clickbait video, 'lol')
    (and feel -though triggered'n as well- putting comments on vids'like'these are roi'some' 'yet' ..).
    who knows i'll meet you someday in the southern-europe regions, because by them '30s i'm moving to spain(eastside) (ever-so-nicely and'even'just'at'first'glance z.r. confirms all'dem'other'techniques on the life-ahead matter).
    (i feel i catch you quite early on youtube, and this when i myself &as'part'of'a'wave i'think was about to give up on 'following' &the'such;
    as well as the following sentences)
    much similarities in astro & interests(spir.), myself heavy 10th &11th'at'that, sat.aqua3'n s' why i dare venture to think so concretely &firmly into/onto the future and that perhaps it would even be we get to connect at some point (and with the faster transportation around that time, begets limitless'ness anyhows).
    i can surely imagine you're getting busy enough -so i'm rather to speak in terms of "would be cool/lovely".
    come to think of this spontanely /intuitively, aha a point 'in'effect to connect by'then(&there,astroloc.pun;) ! :
    i (will) work in the health field (med.astr & unique &best'of'help things), you could sUrely contact me when/if delicates'of'health in that z.r. period 'you'mentioned comes up for you. i would love to (connect &) lend you needed help.
    (though also great chance you don't come 'round to read this, & lengthy post it 'is
    thanks to the kindred spirit that does read ;)
    and "other than that" I atleast put the general manifestation'vibe into the ethers ;)).
    greetings from belgium in any case (but not in any time ;])

      but there's also the many'many 'timelines conondrum which i hear(d) about in dolores(&julia)cannon 's teachings.
      i sUre do feel lately i hAve stepped into ('!))lesser('!) timeline(s)
      (and even losing things, my mentor affirmed this happining -may'be this is a counterargument even for this timeline'supposition.
      oh well this 'll do, or it gets to the level of mind'candy like d.c. says.
      i feel picture is pretty complete).

      Why is your comment so hard to read...maybe I am just too tired, but it is sooo trippy, all the apostrophes and brackets

    • @leviviaene6285
      @leviviaene6285 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@TestButton hi, ("thanks for inquiring" ;)), i(t) presuppose(s) one would pick'up on some 'ground'rules pertaining/on my style'of'writing (because with this i'm able to infer meaning'etc into my sentences that with conventional writing doesn't happen -for anyone).
      i know i'm (kind'of) right in(&for..) doing this (english is not my native language and yet i come up with the word infer -which seems to describe Almost 'exactly what i mean ..), even though me being 'eddie'fied is my (')problem(') (i'm gonna leave out the why i'm right part for non-exhaustion 's sake).
      i find your response an apt one, just like i perhaps should 'always'(i don't intend to anymore) write my comments with precluding(/whatever'the'word) these (kind'of)caveats (but saturn3d-style i'd be havinh done that for nothing just'as'well'

    • @leviviaene6285
      @leviviaene6285 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      i see this(1st'cmmnt) is even one of my bEtter-to-read cmmnts, but previous comment applies nonetheless(->all-the-more even, for (')'average'(') folks i guess -so you see i don't insult you by saying Only 'average' (nOw it is quoting the word you'see)). oh well (")fun(")(wAy'euphenisming) with " saturn'aqua'3d +pluto2moreyears (saturn -pluto 'ness) " (now i use " instead'of ' because it's otherwise not overviewly/.. most'always ' to-be-used because that flows in the sentence-to-read the best (it's what i spontaneuosly came up with in the keyboard'layout -i feel i'm well onto it ..).
      another example: if one thinks about it which is mOre logical: exclamation'point right'after a word, or after a sentence (ie/.. a space between the last word & exlamation'point). answer: it depends on what you want exclamated, the last word or the sentence -as-a-whole. (now thIs example most people would probably say why would it matter so much mr.virgo, i say there's plenty stupid going on - as many of us knOw to read between the lines going on or going'on ? stupid see, stupid do - be ON as you sEE).
      do 'apologize' for the schizophrenic levels of this i 'guess' (but i knOw i'm on track ..) 11:11(now)

      ​@@TestButton apostrophes & brackets ... the illogification of (our)language has been going on a long time, i notice(d) more &more since(2yrsago) i started writing like this (/thinking at 'advanced' levels -it feels more the other way around, since the sht everyone dUmber). '&' bcs those 2 words are meant together in the sentence ('and' indicates a seperate other thing/topic/.. . we read ..&co RIGHT ? ..)

    THIS IS MYSTICAL STUFF ... A DATE , ACCORDING TO WHOM , HUMANS CAN BE FALLIBLE ... ONE CANNOT ALLOW EXTERNAL FACTORS / PERSON TO DETERMINE ... UNIVERSE IS PERFECT BUT HUMANS DO NOT HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS ... INTUITION COMES FROM WITHIN , EXTERNAL FACTORS CANNOT BE CONTROLLED & MADE TO ALIGN WITH CHOICES .... GOOD TO HEAR YOU HELENA ...
