Okay, so lets be clear, when I talk about figuring shit out, I am not so much talking about on a personal level (although I will get to that later), what I am mainly talking about, is this desire that some people have to understand how the universe works and to just keep digging!
I get that it is fascinating (and please remember this is just my humble opinion, I don't wish to offend anyone out there), but I always hear about so much time, going into various different types of research, so that we can understand everything more. (I know pretty broad isn't it?)Time, energy, money and yet we are faced with so much disconnection, so much disharmony. I really believe that these, should be our main focus, but instead it is focused on doing things, that actually take us even further away from who we are.
All this push, to understand the external world, so that we can what? Manipulate it more, see how much more, we can gain from different materials and minerals. We just keep digging and dissecting, with no thought for the effect that this is having on the earth as a whole.
Look at the many ways in which we use animals to do our research on, the total disregard, that so many have for their lives, as though they are totally expendable. And then there is the fact that many human's themselves are used as test subjects, by pharmaceutical companies. That want to achieve what exactly, because we all know that they do not wish for people to get better, but instead want them to remain sick, so that they can grow their businesses.
If this is what figuring shit out, is all about, leave me out of it, because all it is, is a way in which to manipulate, for personal gain?
It breaks my heart, every time I see large pieces of crystal on display. Yes they are beautiful and yes they hold energies that can benefit us, but what effect have we caused by attaining them? Does nobody think, that those crystals are in the earth for a reason and that by removing them, we are actually creating an imbalance?
If the earth really wanted to gift them to us, I do not believe that we should have to dig to reach them, to rip at the earth and leave her scarred. How can we expect those stones to then hold a positive energy, if they have been thorn out of the earth, it just makes no sense to me. Isn't it enough to know. that they exist and that if needs be, we can tap into their energy through meditation perhaps?
What do we have to always, just take, take, take?
Don't even get me started on things like mining, how damaging they are for the environment and for those that live in close proximity to them. There is this desire in us, to go out there and leave our mark, something that society on a whole encourages. When instead we should be focusing on leaving as small an imprint as possible.
But this is not the world that most of us have grown up in, it is spoon fed into us, from an early age that life is mostly about personal gain, see how well they have us compete against one another in school. That keeps us,from wanting to work collectively. As a result we are easier to manipulate and herd!
So we end up doing the dirty work for others, the digging and dissecting that leads to destruction and so much disconnection on our part.
If we spend as much time on our own personal digging, imagine the world we would live in. Imagine the connection we could cultivate, with the natural world. Some things we don't need to understand, we just need to show our gratitude and let be!
Just as we need to focus more on just being!
Thanks @selfhelp4trolls for the inspiration for this, (you and that awesome mind of yours)
I certainly understand the sentiment. I cannot for the life of me figure out how people keep buying so much stuff and don’t even bother to care where it comes from, and yet they still claim to care about the environment.
At the same time I feel this is all just a big ugly healing fest and so we are (I am) sometimes forced to see things and experience things which allow us to accept that everything is love. And if we can accept that in a world of nonsense that often looks like maybe it’s end is near, then we will be able to internalize it to a degree where we can spread it.
The drama of the outside is still the outside, I have to just tune it out sometimes. I do believe life has a way of self regulating. And I also believe that the best way I can help it is to feel as connected as I can, to all of it, even the ugly.
That how I can stay half connected to the shit show and not want to tear my eyes out, I do believe this is a healing process, as much as it looks like people royally fucking up sometimes.
In the contrast we can see what it is we truly don’t want, and that is how to build a sustainable what-we-do-want. That’s the positive.

Hey there, yes this is a wonderful opportunity to create anew, that is how I am looking at it and what I am focusing on. I can't remember the last time I was this proactive and meet regularly with others to create better infrastructures that really will help us thrive. Big hugs to you xxxxxx
I think the reasoning for repeating things is due to a loss of data. Every generation or iteration of a thing loses something at least in terms of communication. We can't convey all the data of our experience to the next generation. Something is going to be lost. We can minimize that loss of information, but we can't eliminate it because our lives are finite.
I agree we have lost a lot of knowledge, on the surface anyhow. But I also believe that we hold a lot of wisdom within and we need to focus on reconnecting with it. thanks so much for taking the time to read and for your feedback xxx
You are very welcome. I also agree we have a lot of wisdom within us. I hope we can see past our ourselves to find it. The world would be a much better place.
Powerful post as always, Aishlinn. It's had to smile, because this is perfectly reflected in your Birth Chart, specifically your Eleventh House with Mars in Cancer. Mars is currently transiting Cancer and will go conjunct on your natal Mars soon.
As @selfhelp4trolls said in his comment, everything happens for Love, even if we don't like it. We're going through a transformation and thus the transgressions are loud in our perspective because they've left wounds we're now healing. Our species is now moving toward a more beautiful relationship with nature and with each other. Blessings always!

Thank you my friend, you do know me! much love and respect xxxx
True words. I agree.
Because of my thinking I don't fit in well and have all kinds of problems living in Germany. Our society is focused on everything I'm against. Germans consider themselves as a Performance society and that is what almost everyone is thriving on here. If you are not performing as expected you are an enemy to society, no matter if it is because you don't want to support the destruction of the planet, the greed of the wealthy or being their slave for a minimum wage and a 40+ working hour week.
I like my sis but she expressed last weekend that because I am receiving social care, I lost my job due to the government closing down everything, she thinks I'm a social parasite. She said afterwards that she didn't mean it that way but I think she does in a way. She performs well and has a total different lifestyle and opinions on things.
Me criticizing the obvious grievances in the world and naming issues makes me a threat and she thinks I'm nuts and just a negative thinking person.
We are not negative but speaking the truth. The truth many don't want to see.
Keep speaking your truth, that is so important and many feel so threaten by that, because they are trying to hold onto this illusion that everything is okay! Keep being you @bulldog-joy xxxxx
You too 🤗 .
I know it is important to not only see the negative but I can't stand the 'all is happy and life is so perfect and everything is ok' people. It is something that doesn't mirror the realities in the world and only a few can allow or rather afford to have this kind of view.
I mean I am happy for them, but they usually judge those who put the illusion in a different perspective. I would love to be in happy lala land but the world out there with its people is not that happy. Our societies are not aimed at making people happy. They are out for profit.
Thanks for your encouragement though, sending love 💜
For sure, that is why we have to find ways to create our own ways. You should check out Freedomcells.org xxxx
Will do, thanks :)
I feel this deeply. ❤️💎 Thank you for your heartfelt words.
Hey Aisling, so lovely to hear from you, I hope you are well xxxxx
