Italy is calling

Finding Truth Within Chaos

What if the chaos in the world is asking us to find our own truth?

And what if your truth is not my truth?

Different truths can coexist, not in opposition, but as complementary forces bringing power back into our own hands, strengthening our personal beliefs.

But what is truth?

Truth comes from within. Yet, what if there is no absolute truth at all?

The current truth stirs deep wounds within us, awakening our core beliefs.

Our self-expression feels stifled (asteroid Karma retrograde in Leo), constricted (conjunct asteroid Vulcanus retrograde in Leo).

Karma seeks balance, yet something in our self-expression has been undermined, restrained and inhibited.

Vulcanus, son of Jupiter (Zeus) and Juno (Hera), is the god of fire and volcanoes, the force behind the lightning bolts of Zeus. In astrology, Vulcanus represents the areas of life where we feel held back, where tension builds until we can no longer suppress it.

It asks us to stop identifying with past experiences and instead, to learn from them. To express ourselves in a way that is not defined by past wounds, but by present truth.

Leo rules the Sun, and the Sun is in Pisces at 8° a dreamy, fluid energy, deeply attuned to emotions and the unseen.

Meanwhile, Pluto in Aquarius is activating our vagus nerve system through fear.

Fear: False Evidence Appearing Real.

How do we respond?

Do we fight?

Do we flee?

Do we freeze?

And where is the lie?

Can the lie be found within the truth?

That is the confusion we are facing.

Mars in Cancer urges us to step into our own truth, even when it hurts.

Jupiter in Gemini amplifies conflicting perspectives, splitting the mind in two directions as Gemini polarizes, while Jupiter, ruler of Sagittarius, seeks a higher truth.

This inner division creates tension.

A paradox emerges: the lie exists within the truth. Is it fact or fabrication?

So we must ask ourselves: THINK.

Is it True?

Is it Helpful?

Is it Inspiring?

Is it Necessary?

Is it Kind?

Where is your focus?

What is pulling you in, obsessively?

In the midst of this internal conflict, something ancient calls to us.

The god of the underworld has brought Dionysus to the surface.

(Asteroid Italy conjunct Pluto in Aquarius.)

Dionysus, god of fertility, wine, and ecstatic liberation, also known as Bacchus.

In Pompeii, a 1st-century BCE fresco of Dionysus was recently uncovered, long buried beneath the ashes of Mount Vesuvius.

(See full article here.)

Dionysus frees his followers through wine, music, and dance, dissolving self-conscious fear and breaking the chains of oppressive power structures.

Now that he has risen once more, what is he asking of us?

Asteroid Dionysus is in transit through Gemini.

Coincidence? There is no such thing.

Gemini, the sign of breath.

Breathe deep.

Juno in Sagittarius urges us to commit us to the truth, to higher consciousness, to expanding our understanding.

Travel through your own mind. The truth lies within.

Yes, read that again:

The TRUTH LIES within.

Can you connect the dots?

Can you read between the lines?

Reach out, connect, educate yourself.

The god of the underworld is exposing what has long been buried. But in doing so, he is also giving us the power to transform.

Chaos and cosmos are not opposites. Within disorder, there is always a secret order.

[Carl Jung]

Mercury in Pisces, ruler of the South Node in Virgo, shifts us away from excessive analysis and perfectionism, toward intuition, creativity, and flow.

A divine catalyst for the upcoming lunar eclipse.

The Message

Cramped thoughts and fears from the past are surfacing.

Where your self-expression was once undermined, you are now being pushed to reclaim it.

You are not defined by your past.

You are not defined by societal expectations.

Keep breathing.

Weigh the pros and cons.

Find your voice as it aches to be spoken.

Commit to your truth.

Reclaim your power.

Restore the balance between self-doubt and self-expression.
