The gathering storm — an introduction to your anger

The cyclone approaches

There are so many things we could explore to learn about Mars—about all of the planets, really. Your Mars is how you summon the energy to take action and how you execute your visions. In that respect, it’s really most concerned with doing the damn thing. So one of your most important contributions to the lord of creation is simply to make your art!

But Mars is also the planet of creative destruction. Mars dissolves that which does not belong. It turns your tower to rubble so that you can use those stones to create something new; reclaiming raw materials.

In alchemical terms, Mars is both the solve and the coagula—it both separates and joins together.

Gathering and galvanizing your inner resources

Up until this point, we’ve been primarily concerned with collecting all of the most important pieces that make up the Godself so that we can construct the most accurate picture we can. You’ve been working to magnetize more of their energy into your life so that you can create a stable foundation from which to embody them.

But what about all the parts of you that get in the way?

What about all of the emotions, experiences, and beliefs that act as barriers to embodying the Godself?

Sometimes, those things need to be ripped from us. But I would strongly advise you to do the ripping yourself.
