Reclaiming Life On Earth
20th May 2011
Planetary Alert! Mars leads the march for a major activation of the feminine! Right now the grief and rage of a forgotten goddess is making her as mad as hell and she isn’t going to take it anymore.
I’ve hesitated to use the word ‘rape’ over the years, but tomorrow is the day that the word ‘rape’ takes on a new wider meaning and urgency. Tomorrow Sedna joins Jupiter and Ceres, Pluto and Persephone, Hekate, Diana, Snow White, Eris and Haumea for an underworld journey of epic proportions. Our grief at the rape of self and planet is about to blow.
Let’s start by looking at the mechanics of the story. In Human Design there is a central channel through the BodyGraph. In the Jovian system it’s part of the Knowing Circuit, individual circuitry that stands up and demands the expression of self that transforms the collective consciousness. In the Kaballah this central channel is the place of integration of duality – yin/yang, she/he, heaven/earth, above/below.
Since 28th April the Sun and Earth have been in that central channel (1). During this period we’ve been picking up the pieces of our individual selves, empowering ourselves and each other through resolving all kinds of dualities, not the least of which has been our relationships. But the most significant thing about this 3 week process is not that we’ve become powerful individuals, but that we have done it as a collective movement. And now, tomorrow we get to take action from that new powerful collectively oriented self.
Activating The Pure Self
There is something very pure here, a rising up of the sovereignty of the simple loving self. It comes as Eros conjuncts Uranus in the Gate of Innocence (on midnight on 22nd May UT in Gate 25 line 6). This is central to the whole process, which is ultimately asking us to take responsibility for what is going on here on this planet. Eros and Uranus call to us to use our life force energy to commit ourselves to Life, to take charge of developments, to take responsibility rather than allowing things to go with the flow and trust that someone else has an eye on the direction we’re headed in.
Eros is traditionally seen as having to do with sexual desire. This activation is, I believe, about allowing us to take back our creative energy which has been trapped in a sexual la-la land of instant dating, porn and advertising (Wow look at that hot chick! I think I’ll buy that car, phone, power tool!) or too exhausted from paying the mortgage to even bother.
The Asteroid Diana is also central, as a protectoress of the young innocent self and a woman who feels more at home in nature than stuck indoors, she is shifting from hunted to hunter. She is not prepared to see her charges (and that is the young and innocent within each one of us) be left anymore at the mercy of unscrupulous and faceless corporate entities. She’s currently in Gate 53 line 6, making a channel with Eris and activating a connection between the Sacral and Root Chakras.

Transformation of the Collective
So now, let’s have a look at what’s bringing all these influences together. Firstly the Sun and Earth are about to connect the Sacral Chakra to the Throat Chakra.
This is a very special connection as it bypasses the heart energy and is a flow of vitality that just moves through us, almost without our awareness. I have called it the Channel of Keeping Busy, because it is energy that demands to be acted upon.
There are two important ways to ground this powerful energy. For the next five days, put your awareness on your belly rather than your throat or head. Don’t listen to what your mind tells you to do, instead take a moment to check in with your body. Secondly, allow yourself to be in the moment rather than following any sort of plan.
This is a powerful channel that is only fully open when you are doing what you love. If you try to use it in any other way it tends to get sucked up and used by others and that makes you the pawn rather than the powerful activator.
The other thing is that this energy is a powerful transformative force for the collective consciousness. This next 5 days are likely to shift the history of the human race. It will be a multitude of tiny personal shifts that will feed through to our DNA and create a whole new reality for humanity.
What the Goddesses Are Up To
The crone Hekate is conjunct the spurned daughter, Sedna, in the Gate of Splitting Apart (23) at the Throat Centre. She links the message of Sedna with that of Pluto, Ceres and her daughter Persephone, because it was Hekate who brought Persephone back from the underworld. Add in another daughter, Snow White, and we have a toxic soup with the lid about to blow. Why blow? Because Haumea is involved as well, Goddess of Hawaii and the mother of Pele, Goddess of Volcanoes. (The asteroid Pele is in Gate 53 with Diana by the way).
The major link between all four feminine archetypes – Sedna, Ceres, Persephone, Snow White – is that of receiving nourishment. The young Sedna was forced to marry in service to the customs of her tribe and against her will. She transformed into the whales, dophins and fishes, becoming the source of food for her people. When she was angered, the Inuits didn’t eat, she withheld their food supply. When Ceres’ daughter Persephone was forcibly taken against her will, Ceres (or Demeter who is the Greek version) withdrew her blessing and famine descended on the land. Persephone ate the pomegranate and became the Queen of the Underworld. Snow White was given an apple that poisoned her.
Sedna is perfectly poised in the Gate of Splitting Apart and Hekate tells us that we are at an environmental crossroads. It’s time to see clearly and take action:
There is danger when you only see the situation in ‘positive’ terms, always looking for ways to get the best possible outcome. When you place too much emphasis on a narrow definition of ‘success’ you become blind to the harm you do.
It’s time to truly see what harm we’ve done to this planet. Ceres, Goddess of Agriculture, is in the Gate of Grace. This indicates we need to look beneath the surface, read labels, discover the truth beyond the pretty packaging. Demeter was the goddess of corn. It’s estimated that more than 85% of corn grown in the USA is genetically modified. Ceres connection to the South Node (in Gate 12, Standstill) indicates a need to allow our grief
Snow White is in the Solar Plexus Chakra, in the Gate of Abundance (55). Because Ceres is where she is, Snow White is connecting to the Throat Chakra. In Human Design terms, that means she gets to express herself in the world. She’s especially important just now because she’s not just sitting on her own. Snow White has two powerful friends with her – Neptune and Chiron. These two have been working as a team since early 2008 to shift our inability to see clearly where we are being wounded (Chiron) and discombobulated at the subtle levels (Neptune). In conjunction with Snow White they are basically telling us to wake up and see what toxins we are being fed to keep us asleep. We may look good like this, but we’re as good as dead! This harkens back to Ceres in the Gate of Grace that can have us thinking that as long as things look okay on the surface we’ll be fine! Ceres brings up grief and rage at the loss of something that we loved deeply.
The Gate of Abundance is about being at the centre of your own life and making responsible decisions. You are at the centre of your own universe filled to the brim with resources, plans and allies. Even when you are left in complete confusion and bewilderment, feeling as if you have nothing to navigate by, and your ability to take the action you thought necessary is gone.
Ceres is in the line of the bridgegroom come to get the bride (got to love the synchronicity of that on all levels – Pluto/Persephone, Snow White and the dashing prince).
A beautiful dazzling energy makes its entrance like a suitor coming for his bride. This is a time to express conviction, get started and explore.
Here’s the thing. The daughter/ princess has been lost, poisoned, suppressed, asleep. Her potent fertility has not been available to us. Try as she might, there was no power for her to do anything to change things. Stuck under the deepest ocean (Sedna), kidnapped in the underworld (Persephone), asleep feared dead in a glass casket (Snow White). But tomorrow there is a shift. The new young masculine is activating and will meet up with the young feminine and we have a shazam moment happening.
Mars has been heading out as an advance party – leading Mercury and Venus who have been following closely behind through Aries and now Taurus. Mars is our passion, our action principle, our healthy personal boundaries. Tomorrow Mars moves into the Gate of Returning, allowing your energy to take root in the field of real possibilities, rather than the confused and deluded fantasies we’ve been stuck in till now. With the lifting of this veil, the alchemical connection of new masculine with new feminine and the rising up of a powerful goddess energy.
Haumea? She’s grounding this transformative channel by connecting it to the Spleen Centre. She shows us what is real, what we can truly rest on. She brings us a whole raft of new ways of perceiving and understanding and reveals a whole lot of influences at work in our lives that we’ve never noticed before. This may feel overwhelming, but Saturn (also in the Spleen Centre) helps us find our feet by sifting through the mud that we’ve been living in and find the deep clear water. Saturn, of course, requires that we take responsibility for our decisions. My landlord has just installed gas heating in my home on the same week I’ve been protesting against local Coal Seam Gas Mining. Hmmmm!
There are many aspects to this powerful unfolding. The profound lack of respect for life that passes for global business on this planet more and more clearly constitutes rape. It makes use of, and perpetrates for it’s own purposes (whatever happened to Beltane!) an underlying disconnect between masculine and feminine that has allowed our passion, desire and creative energy to be taken from us (again, rape) and used to benefit others. As our Sacral Chakra joins in a global alchemical transformation over the next five days, we regain our personal power to use our life force energy for our own purposes, and regain the natural processes of creativity and abundance on the planet.
(1) Except for the period from 28th April to 3rd May when the Earth was in Gate 44, to the Sun’s 24.
WOW. That is one power packed post! Rings true on so many levels.
Kim – you are amazing!
Please sign me on. Biren keeps sending me links to your posts..They all ring so deep within me. Kim you are amazing. I have been practicing Tantra Meditation for the last two years and last six months has been intensive on the first four chakras….So I know what this post means….My only purpose is to unite the new masculine and new feminine within…..Thanks for this…
I`m very much interested what happend in the days between april 28th and may 3rd (over Beltane) … it was such an intense time for me, hard and difficult to handle, to keep my feet on the ground…would be interesting to me! Thank you for all your wonderful work – so helpful and interesting!!!
Love, ulrike
Ulrike I will email you, I still have your email here to read. <3
Enlightening!
Much gratitude to you.
Had my basic reading done about 10 years ago and nearly jumped out of my seat. It was as though someone had been inside my head. I’m a projector with a theme of P investigation and D selectivity and it’s so wonderful to find someone writing about this so beautifully. Thank you.
Amazing and bracing as ever, Kim, you have an acute sense of storytelling. You pass it on beautifully. And even as we speak, a volcanic eruption has started in Iceland, and there are protests in several places on earth, shazam!
Olof I was just checking to see what had happened since my google meter (on my homepage) shows icelandic volcanic as ‘smokin’ hot!’. Did you dream, I wonder?
i was realy enjoying reading what you had written..Then i thought i would look at “what reading is right for me” sadly i see u again are as much the same as most asking for money to gain insight to something we all ready have if we just listen to ourselves….But i still wish you blessings…i have known for years that “she” Earth is going to get angry.we all have but have just not listened…..blessings….
Patrick I don’t share insight you already have, what I share is my own insight. And like you, no doubt, I have rent to pay and food to buy, etc. In this current environment we are still operating within the financial matrix. I see money as energy and love, the flow of money as the flow of energy and love amongst those we value. I am happy to see that people are choosing more and more wisely where they will place that energy and love and in doing so enrich everyone. I have no concerns about charging money for what I do, in fact quite the reverse, I believe it is part of the enrichment of humanity. Thank you for your blessings and thoughts. <3
kim writes and posts amazing articals for all of our pleasure for free and you say sadly you see she asks for money for her skilled insight and time to look at personal charts,lord,we can be quite guilty of taking all the time and thinking we can take more and more and not be greatful for what is given for free,I dont mean to be up in face about your post,but to me kim gives so much,I would question your cynicism,
Funny you should ask about my dreaming, Kim. Last year, I had a dream the night before the famous Eyjafjallajökull eruption, the Lady of the Mountain sat by my bed and told me she would make herself heard… and yesterday morning, I had a vision of sorts in Brittany, which I linked to the Lady… During the last days, I have sensed the power of dreams in my body, and it’s all in tune with what you write. The worldwide uprisings express a healthy anger, the clichés are being torn apart… and we’re all in it together.
Namaste, Kim, your wealth is beyond gold.
Just found your site and love how you tie the energetics of the aspects to both the personal and collective. Do not be afraid of using the word “rape”; “profound lack of respect for life that passes for global business on this planet more and more clearly constitutes rape” – and not only “more and more”, it HAS and always has been rape, for the last few thousand years. Just add in all of the crimes and injustices against the feminine, from women to the earth herself. How interesting that the head of the IMF is arrested on rape charges the same week. Yes, the goddess is angry, and the wrathful form of the goddess is not something to mess with. Men have always feared her. Kali herself may come spewing forth from the center of the earth to really wake all of us up.
Kim, I love your posts and read them regularly. I enjoy your expression of this material and feel so much in the transits these days…I have personally been experiencing a dramatic awakening and shift of power in my lower chakras, so I spend most of my time now integrating this incredible presence.
After having shifted away from my physical lover, family origin unit, former community, career, in the transit field of the last year, I am finally in my own auric field untouched, unattached and sensing my energy as it flows in tandem with the cosmos, running free. It is multi-orgasmic, sacred, wondrous and full of extraordinary strength.
In my meditation this morning I was visited by a dakini that spoke to me about rape. This was before I read your blog today. Her message was quite clear to me…it was about recognizing the way that this energy has in fact been raped, distorted, governed and manipulated in a multitude of ways by the masculine yang spiraling out of control, out of alignment. All of us have so much reparation to attend to.
The dakini gave me a teaching about the importance of witnessing these moments in our lives (however small) where we may have given our feminine face of power away in exchange for the illusion of refuge and recognition or security from the external male – or a construction of power (the wounded girl going back to the father again and again trying to serve, seeking his blessing as he continues to misinterpret her offering and feeds his own position, both of them imprisoning themselves).
All of this was in the vision, and the spirit that came said it is time now to hold and hold and hold – all of it in, unless the power of the source is truly going to be manifested outwardly in ways that represent the new balance. The sacred masculine has literally forgotten in some places about what to do and must be re-initiated.
I am now experimenting with a precious dance between my desire to offer up everything to the tribe – and my inner yang, protective warrior father who refuses to give way unless the jewel is considered. I am reclaiming all of these pieces, and it’s working!!! Physically, it feels like an inner union I have never experienced, full of strength and surrender – a beautiful play of these archetypal forces coursing through my body making love.
I have had several men ask me to spend the night with them in these last few weeks, and for the first time in my life I have the most delicious response – I am so flattered, but I’m on an alchemical date with the cosmos and unavailable until further notice!
Great writing and beautiful conversation. It is such a time of reconciliation and healing in the hologram. Lots of sacred support in your direction:)
Phoenix thank you so much for sharing this. It is so clear and so perfectly and poetically expressed. It’s wonderful the way we are all connected, even when we don’t get to meet on the physical plane.
Yes, Phoenix, and thank you so much in expressing it in such a clear way… that`s what I can experience right now as well.
How wonderful being united in this way… Love to U and me 🙂 (being one!)
Ulrika
Brilliant sharing of insight Kim and experience(Phoenix)! It is such a delight to be showered with your generosity of spirit and I must say you have just been on fire lately Kim. I do think we can all have understanding and compassion for each other and ourselves over the amazing amount of transformation of karma and default settings we are all taking on energetically as a collective. Even if you are someone who isn’t working with transforming basic instinctual settings in your own life(nobody I run into these days-lol) you are certainly working with helping the collective do it and so experiencing shifts in physical energy and vitality should be expected and not worried about. We are all working overtime at this point. Many of us are traveling far and wide(often in our dreamtime) in space, dimension, and time working to heal things, anchor energy, and gather all the bits and pieces of ourselves that have been left in various places and moments so that we can have maximum personal resources available.
RE: 20-34 This is an interesting channel to me for various reasons. One, the 34 is the only non-sexual gate in the Sacral and is about the pure power of life-force gaining access to expression without having ego but is in an individual circuit. It can be, in it’s highest form, a place where we simply channel the firery life-force energy though to manifestation in the way we are naturally most capable of doing it. this is truly a no-mind, no-fear, no-pressure, no-ego channel when we release and let it be. Two, this is also a place where I believe a new chakra or energy center will come into existence over time and I’m very curious about just what that will be about. Finally this is a channel where, when it is activated in a clear and clean way, makes us glow to others and simply letting our natural expression come out we help to ignite those around us without plan or design. It’s the lead candle on the Menorah that sets all the others to flame.
Lastly about insight, money, energy exchange blah blah blah. We are moving from the emotional watery Piscean age(needing a saviour or an intermediary between us and spirit) to the Aquarian age(the waterbearer). It’s funny because we call it the waterbearer but Aquarius is an air sign which is all about the mental realm rather than the emotional. Just what “water” is the waterbearer bearing? Perhaps the water of her/his own consciousness. We are heading into a time where we are each valued for our uniqueness and individuality and yes, we will each have access to the truth we will need, our truth. Now we are in a transition and it is a confusing one. There are people around us who can give us valuable insight in finding our way through this time. For this insight to be truly worth something though there must be an exchange of energy, of currency and for now that is often expressed as monetary. At some point in the future it likely won’t be money any longer but it will still need to be an exchange. Aquarius is very much about equality and fairness so even in Aquarius there must be fair exchange. I challenge everyone who reads what Kim has so generously put forth free of charge to make what you read of real value in the world. If you are taking her insights and then just hoarding them to yourself you guarantee the lowest return on your investment of time. Somehow there is a debt being incurred here and it is up to you to figure out how to even out the flow of energy. You can take what you are learning and put it to use in your life and by doing so have an effect on those around you which starts a chain-reaction, you can directly support Kim by giving back to her something of value(or donating to her site), You can pass her insights on to others around you or figure out a way not mentioned here but make no mistake while Kim asks for no payment, for you to have the greatest value in what you are getting from her, we all need to consider ways we can honor that giving and keep the energy flowing instead of damming it up. We are all spirits of vast dimension but we have all chosen to incarnate in this physical universe with it’s laws and rules and we must be here to work with these rules in the best way we can. I find it worthless to criticize each other in our experiments with these rules but of great value to keep encouraging each other to find greater and greater, higher and more worthy ways of doing so. Thank you Kim for being such a reservoir of energy for change. Thanks to everyone who is working to keep the currency flowing. Destruction is easy, creation is vastly more difficult. Let’s all continue to hold hands and play with creating something new. (stepping off my pulpit now) xox
Placing a monetary value on what we create as women is very difficult to do.Kim is one of the most generous,creatively dedicated people I know.You have inspired me to embrace the new feminine and temper my fierce masculinity-and I’m a girl!!!Thanks again Kim xxx
Wow thank you so much!!
