Fund Drive, Caroline magnetizes pledges by playing segments of this previous show…
and offering this most wonderful book for a pledge of $150
Originally aired October 6th, 2022
Caroline hosts Kristin Ohlson, whose most recent invaluable book is Sweet in Tooth and Claw: Stories of Generosity and Cooperation in the Natural World – Full Moon Waxing, that humans be inspired by such to rejoin the collaborative dance. Quoting Darwin’s contemporary, the Russian scientist-anarchist Peter Kropotkin: “Who are the fittest: those who are continually at war with each other, or those who support one another? We at once see that those animals which acquire habits of mutual aid are undoubtedly the fittest.”

This show, and the wondrous bounty of money we raised for the station, seem part of the energetic up-lift available now. Thank you Venus and Jupiter !
after deep travails…Thank you Saturn and Pluto, and all our demons and nafs…
So witty, getting us to crisis, where we must follow the counsel of the I Ching, below\…
I love Kristin speaking of so many things, for which we have – endogenous kinship receptors:
Symbiotic Mutualism – “3 way symbiosis bestowed a super power” to live in challenging environment…(twas a plant partnering with a fungus, but only if that fungus had partnered with a virus.)
Viral Symbiosis
Relaxed Selection…to make living easier…
“Survival of the friendliest”
***************
I am finding the beneficial rays radiating from the Jupiter – Venus dance
most heartening…enthusing, rousing, emerging, encouraging participation, with a joyful – “we can perform the necessary miracles” aplomb
“From the exhaustless riches of its Limitless Substance I draw all things needful both spiritual and material…” sayeth statement 4 on the Pattern on the Trestleboard
Arising after crisis of descent…
For myself and Monday Night Trickster Council, I consulted the I Ching, which I had not done in far too long. Good to remember these supportive augury allies are always available…An outward expression of our inner state…Self-clarifying, that tarot card, that I Ching Hexagram:
the I Ching responded.
60. Limitation
Welcome Saturn entering into Pisces March 7th.
“The escape artist in the time-keepers box.”
We’re really here now…Good to declare such, “I’m really here now.”
And emerging from the slough of despond….
which the I Ching addressed
6 in 3rd
“Lamenting. Whose fault is this? (I love that) This is the time to set limits and create order. If you don’t, you will always end up being sorry. Everything will dissolve in a flood of tears. If you make order now, you will make no mistake.
Wait for the right moment to act. Turn conflict into creative tension.”
That was so great:“Lamenting. Whose fault is this?”
Right on! (as we used to say…encouraging exhortations are good)
So I heeded the counsel,
and danced under Venus and Jupiter,
and much rejoicing…and participatory good feeling has ensued…
leading to:
6 in 4th
“Delineating the crossings.
Quiet delineating, peaceful and serene
Make an offering and you will succeed
Articulating your ideas and feelings quietly and peacefully and you will merit a warm response. This creates success and inspires friends to join you.
Express yourself and inspire others, Find supportive friends. Gather energy for a decisive new move!”
OK- then! Hi Team! All in this Dream…
and this all makes way for
(Limitation changes to:)
49. Revolution
“On your own day you are believed.
Supreme Success.
remorse Disappears…”
Ok we’re here, and we’re available to:
Venus, Jupiter and Chiron quintile Pluto…
The portals are open, so let’s welcome the disciplined dedication on a mission
that be Pluto 29+ Capricorn…dynamic harmonious humm with Venus, Jupiter, Chiron in Aries, fresh expression for old artful vitality…
And Venus and Vesta just emerging from their conjoining…. at the Crystal gazing degree…8+ Aries, our MC.
As Sylvia Hanley reminds us, where Vesta be, is where we are divested of orthodoxy, and delayed, until we dedicate to keeping the Community hearth flame alight…
Vesta is now at the “leader of a nation” degree, quintile Mars in Gemini….We hum the necessary miracle that leadership be dedicated to community well-being….
So, a toast to Symbiotic Mutualism….!
