Halloween: Carnivalization of Our Inner Demons

I think that Halloween is one of the most important holidays of western cultures. It is the time when we have a special opportunity do deal with our inner demons in the subconscious level - fears, angers, forbidden urges, dark feelings - in a safe, funny, carnivalistic way. We should make most of it, for the sake of our mental and spiritual well-being. Because if we neglect the Halloween, it can be harmful for the free flow of energies through our chacras - especially the energies related to Manipura, the solar plexus chacra.

Astrology as Ancient Wisdom

I really respect astrology. Astrology is a fascinating combination of ancient empiric knowledge, mysticism, fatalism, and even everyday entertainment! Even though many people consider it just nonsense, the undeniable fact is that even today it has a huge influence on the world views of many people. It is not just about reading your daily horoscope from a newspaper for fun, but also about understanding and categorizing human behavior, and even comprehending the yearly twelve-month cycle based on the signs of the zodiac. This happens in very deep subconscious level.
            And even though astrology has certain religion-like qualities, it totally lacks one feature so sadly typical to most religions: violence. In its deepest level, astrology is about seeking harmony between different, even contradicting elements.
