The Astrology of March 2025 - Whiplash? How About A Reference Point for the Tsunami of Changes

THE ASTROLOGY OF MARCH 2025

MARCH 1ST – VENUS RETROGRADE

As far as the astrology is concerned, this month is really one of the big months of the year to look at. The period from November of 2024 to about July of 2025 has been a time astrologers have been looking at for a while. There are a few reasons for that because there are a lot of big changes happen within a short period of time. The outer planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto all change signs within a one year period and they all have such different orbits that it rarely happens in such short succession. What compounds on top of this is the fact that Saturn and Jupiter are joining in and the outer planets are in aspect to each other, Pluto and Uranus will be trining each other with Neptune and Saturn in the middle sextiling them both. I’ll go into those things more in the Astrology of 2025 post, but that’s what’s happening in the background. As for this month, well, we start it off at the top of the month with a Venus retrograde, which is starting shortly after Mars comes out of retrograde and is still going through his shadow. On March 14th we get the first Eclipse of the year at 23° Virgo and we follow that with the ruler of Virgo going retrograde shortly after, at the same degree of the Aries eclipse at the end of the month. Also, during the time of the Eclipse, he’s pretty much standing still in the sky. Also, another interesting tidbit is that Venus goes from Aries where she’s in detriment and without many resources into Pisces, where she’s exalted. She’ll be going back into Pisces and Mercury will eventually join her during the course of his retrograde. Also, Mercury is both at home and exalted in Virgo, but in fall and detriment in Pisces so his return into such a rough and murky place for himself after having left it, seems interesting, especially because the eclipses are happening along the Virgo – Pisces axis, making one of the places his home and exaltation and the other his fall and detriment. Another layer of that is that the south node is the one that is occupying Virgo while the north node is in Pisces, tending to lend more towards releasing the more Virgo energies and move into the more Pisces energies. Him meeting with Venus who has her exaltation there before he goes backwards and then get almost within a degree of her while he’s retrograde only to turn direct before completing that meeting makes me think that while their stories are connected, they’re mental side of what’s happening might not fully grasp the depths of what Venus is working on and again we might need to use so faith as she goes through her 40 days and 40 nights. Will temptations abound during this time for us as well? Either way, the Pisces, Virgo and Aries energies are sharing the stage and during most of the month, with the Sun itself transiting through Pisces making conjoining and renewing the energies of both Saturn and Neptune. He’ll then enter Aries and do the same for both Venus and Mercury. We’ve got quite a month, which ends with Neptune dipping out of Pisces and moving into Aries.

First things first, Venus is the realest. Haha, maybe not so much and especially when she makes it back into Pisces, which is a pretty idealistic, dreamy and confusing sign… especially with it being as charged as it is right now. However, the fact that she’s goes retrograde this month is pretty real and the ramifications of this retrograde are likely to be really real as well. If you watch the Astrology Podcast, you’ve already gotten a few chances to see some of what some of her past retrogrades from Aries into Pisces have brought. You’d also be aware of the notion that when she enters the signs of her retrograde, signs of what the retrograde will bring actually start becoming apparent, which in this case brings us to Pisces. She entered Pisces on January 2nd and entered her shadow on January 28th. The shadow period of a retrograde is important because those are the degrees that the planet will eventually revisit, so things happening around the times that the planet is first going over it’s shadow degrees are likely to be revisited. For those of you who like to journal, it’s your time to shine. You can track your personal astrology quite a bit more easily than most other people. Look back to the end of January and things happening then under the purview of Venus, are likely to be revisited. It is true that in general Venus is known to rule over feminine energy, love, diplomacy, value, beauty and those types of things, but for each of us she rules over specific areas of our lives as well. Look at your own personal chart to see where she rules to see what things you might be revisiting. For me personally, she rules over my 3rd and 10th house, meaning that my career and public image as well as communications, neighborhood and transportation might all be under review. My MC, which is very directed degree which rules over my career and public persona are also in Aries. I’m already seeing the effects of the retrograde and could feel the energy building up for a bit. Since I was aware it was going to happen, I’ve been trying to be prepared as I can be, this is a tricky retrograde which ties so many things together it’s interesting. For many people though, there will be a re-evaluation of their priorities and how much their interpersonal relationships, romantic and non, are really working out for them. It’s going to be a heavy reviewal time for some as we literally just went through a year and a half of eclipses on the Aries and Libra axis which caused upheaval for a lot of people in those areas of their charts…. And in general since that is the relationship and diplomacy area versus the independence and self-preservation and independence axis, it’s been tough. Mars just finished its retrograde causing many to re-visit their actions and the things which happened on the Aries side of those things. Venus is about to help us understand the Libra side and if exes come back, we’ll be figuring out what’s best for us. Just because they’re back doesn’t mean it needs to stay that way. While Venus is going backwards, I’m not sure if it’s the time to jump in without any cares or make any final decisions. When she gets into Pisces it’s even more nebulous. I’ll have to do a full Venus retrograde post as well, but for know, know that there’s a revisiting of Venus ruled things and that you might not be seeing things completely for what they are just yet and it might take a few months to get your bearings. The fact that Mercury is already in shadow doesn’t help with rationalizing things either.

MARCH 2ND SUN SQUARES JUPITER & MERCURY CONJOINS NEPTUNE

On March 2nd we have two different aspects that happen and each of them has completely different energy. So it might be a mixed day for many people. When it comes to the Sun squaring Jupiter, we may feel the urge to really enjoy life and have fun. We have the Sun’s energy, which is about having fun and enjoying existence and living life, coming into contact with Jupiter’s energy which is expansive, optimistic and also quite fun loving. We just have to be sure to not go overboard. Jupiter expands, and in a square it might show a bit of excess, so maybe having too much fun, maybe drinking too much or something of the sort might be a thing, because the Sun is also in Pisces (a Jupiter ruled sign) and Pisces and escapism go hand-in-hand.

Mercury conjoining Neptune is kind of dreamy and sometimes discombobulating. This is because Mercury rules over rational thought and communication and Mercury is getting a double dose of confusion or dreaminess here. If you’re really trying to push rational thought on this day, it’s probably going to work out too well. Mercury is already in Pisces which isn’t really a linear sign and it’s very watery.. it’s like trying to read a paper from above the water but the words are blurring together. We’ve got a lot of energy in Pisces right now too, so take the water and make it really wavy… now try to read the words on the paper, that’s more like it for this day. However, if you’re looking to get creative, this can be the day. I might be a bit concerned about deceptive communications coming around this time as well, because that’s another possibility when Neptune and Mercury come together. Be cautious of things you hear or information that comes to you on this day, use your intuition more-so to filter through the info.

MARCH 3RD – MERCURY ENTERS ARIES

Mercury entering Aries can be quite sobering. You could literally be sobering up from something from the day and night before. Either way, Mercury in Aries is a lot more capable of direct thinking and communication. It might be a little too direct and rash though. Keep that in mind. Also, keep in mind that at this point Mercury has entered into his shadow and things you say may come back to haunt you. Mercury actually entered it’s shadow on March 1st, the same day that Venus went retrograde. There could definitely be some tough times dealing with communications with relationships and things that happen around this time being brought back up later.

MARCH 11 – MERCURY CONJOINS A RETROGRADE VENUS

Okay, this here is something that I find interesting, especially because these Mercury and Venus retrogrades are completely tied into each other. Mercury entered into it’s shadow the day Venus went retrograde and he’ll go retrograde within a degree of where Venus goes retrograde so as she’s currently going backwards and crosses his path she’s bringing something back to him that he might take with him forward, but eventually even he’s going to turn back around and go over this spot again. He’ll also turn around and station direct just over a degree before meeting back up with Venus. I wouldn’t be surprised if there isn’t something that happens on this day or a meeting that comes about that is understood one way when it happens because we think we’re thinking alright. Then as Mercury starts to really travel backwards we dig into the details, get lost a little and when he turns around later one, and clears both Pisces, Neptune and this spot, we’ve got more clarity. There’s a chance that when Venus turns around and is going straight over this point she gives an affirmation to whatever it was.

MARCH 12TH, THE SUN CONJOINS SATURN

The Sun conjoining Saturn can play out in a bunch of different ways. It could be a stop to the fun. Or maybe a realization of something that isn’t sustainable about our current trajectory. I feel like it’s like we come up to an iceberg or a place where we’re forced to sober up from the dreaminess we may have been experiencing while the sun has been in Pisces. Anyone who has been in Vegas long has probably seen the When The Fun Stops fliers, those are coming to mind. Either way, the situation shouldn’t be all that much of a surprise because the energy of Saturn isn’t a small one and the Sun will have been approaching it for a bit now. We may at this point come to the conclusion that we’ve been dreaming about something that isn’t really viable, but we may also get the chance to make it to where something we’ve been dreaming about has a chance to become solidified and a reality. For this to happen though, you’re going to have to really work for it. For anything involving Saturn to have a chance to turn out favorably, you’ll need to put in a lot of work and it’ll usually take some patience as well.

On or around this day, I’m seeing a light shone on something that could possibly be problem in the Pisces energy as a whole for the world. That could be something involving issues with the water or oceans or something of the sort. Naval issues could be a thing, but it could be some kind of aquatic accident or harms to a water source that gets noticed.

Either way, on a personal level, we’ll want to look at the Pisces section of our lives… Saturn has been going through this area of our lives for a couple of years now and it’s been trying to help us gain control or fortify it in some way. The sun can make it so we’re aware of what’s been going on and can make us aware of the need to dedicate some time and energy to this area of our lives.

Sun meeting Saturn in the skies is kind of rough because the energies are so opposite. We have the center meeting the outer edges. The heat meeting the cold. There can be a lot gleamed from these meetings though, and I don’t think it should go one way or the other. Each energy brings something different into our lives and both should be respected. The sun is the center, fun and life. Saturn is the borders, restrictions, structure and death. They both are necessary for the whole to work. Sometimes it’s the awareness of the dangers that keep us alive. Remember that Saturn rules over the winter and if you haven’t prepared or put in the work, you don’t survive a winter, he brings that awareness wherever he goes. There’s a time for work and a time for play. This will be the last time that the Sun and Saturn meet in Pisces for some time, so learn what you can from this energy because it wont be back for another 28 years or so.

MARCH 14TH – LUNAR ECLIPSE IN VIRGO

I will soon be doing a full write-up on this configuration itself, because it’s kicking into high-gear some really big changes that are going to be taking over the world in a bunch of different ways. The Aries – Libra eclipses really did show us quite a bit when it comes to the energies of war and diplomacy. We definitely saw quite a bit happen when it comes to those really distinct energies and the axis upon which they fall. For example, we saw infusion of tension in certain areas and the changing of the worldwide landscape of wars and alliances. When we have the nodes involved one side is kind of powered up and the other side is kind of short-circuited, in a sense and we’re encouraged to let something go here. Balance and diplomacy was on the releasing side of the last eclipses. Well, at least the illusion of balance and diplomacy that had been upheld for some time was revisited and redistributed and a more independent mindset was brought in. I bring up the last eclipses to show what we think we’ve learned from them, but also because the rulers of those eclipses are implicated in these ones.

At the time of this eclipse, Venus is retrograde and on her way back into Pisces, where she’s exalted and would normally be able to really help us bring humanity together on a large scale. However, she’s retrograde and she’s definitely more apt to do more of what we’ve been dealing with over the last couple of years. We have been dealing with the testing of alliances and diplomacy, now that she’s going back from a place of war into a place that affects the whole, she might cause some serious re-negotiating of alliances. People and peoples, individuals and nations, are going to be thinking about what they really want, value and desire and they’ll be more likely to go for those things as Venus enters into her morning star face.

Seeing as the nodes have switched signs, the energies of these new eclipses and the areas of life they’ll be affecting will be different. This time around, we’re being encouraged to release things on the Virgo side of the spectrum and embrace the Pisces side. The Virgo – Pisces axis will teach us a lot about the microcosm versus the macrocosm. The pieces versus the whole. Facts versus faith. They’re both implicated when it comes to health as well. When the energies are married properly, we can get a really good balance between the physical and spiritual. Unfortunately, what happens at times is that we’re a bit too much in one side of things and neglect the other. This is what the eclipses highlight, where we need to re-balance. I don’t think that it’d be hard to think about the how there’s been a panic and obsessive reliance or fixation on physical health. Much of which to the neglect of the other side of the equation. It’s like as a society we’ve forgotten that our health is comprised of more than just the physical.

Society as a whole might also soon learn about a lot of deception in the healthcare industry because we’ve got Neptune leaving Pisces and Neptune can sometimes talk very directly to deception. It’s usually not until after it has departed from a sign that we begin to see it for ourselves. We also have to remember how the planetary energies play out as a whole. The energy might be in one spot, but it’s influence refers out to many other spots. The most jarring of those energies will be seen in the signs squaring the energy and the one opposing it. That means that the mutable signs are going to be lit up again during these eclipses. I just confirmed something too. The influence of Neptune on the mutable signs is still going to be present during this first set of eclipses and by the time they come back and are fully in Pisces and Virgo, Neptune’s influence will be playing out elsewhere. That makes the two eclipses here quite interesting. They will be playing out with the nodes quite close to Neptune so I’m wondering about those implications. Especially because in any eclipse we’re dealing with the occultation of light, something is being hidden. If we combine a hidden element with a possibly deceptive element… I don’t know what we’re in for. 6 months from now we’ll get the other side of the coin and I wonder if we might have a better understanding of whatever we have gotten into by that point and maybe some of the underhanded influences that may have been involved. Neptune could also just simply make the events affect everyone as a whole as well. Neptune blurs lines and calls upon the energy of all-is-one. In my experience we see the energies manifest in multiple ways for multiple people. For some, it’ll show up in one really striking manifestation of a signification. Others get a bouquet of the energies (I personally receive a bouquet, good and/or bad).

Either way here we specifically have Saturn, the Sun, North Node and Neptune, all up next to each other opposing the Moon and the South Node. That is a lot of energy on the Sun’s side and on the side of the North node, so they won’t necessarily be getting the attention, but there’s support there. We’re going to be needing to let go of some of our emotional and instinctive tendencies and connections to that Virgo energy. This could be letting go of the need to analyze and rationalize the small details. To think and obsess over small details. The need to control things in that area of our lives. The influence of Uranus in this as well is going to be big and maybe unexpected for many. Impulses for freedom, innovation or change on top of the big changes of the eclipses can be a lot, especially for those resistant to change. These energies might cause most disruptive change for people with personal planets and points in the last 10 degrees of the Mutable signs (Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces, and Gemini). It’ll likely be more favorable to Cancer, Scorpio, Taurus and Capricorn around those degrees. How it’ll affect you also has to deal with how you flow with the energy, when it comes to the nodes, sometimes it’s something we kind of feel is coming.

MARCH 15 – MERCURY STATIONS RETROGRADE

When a planet stations retrograde, it looks like it stops and turns around in the sky. It’ll typically takes some time for the planet to appear to be moving again and when it does, it’s going in the opposite direction. We can expect the typical Mercury retrograde stories like delays in travel, miscommunications, and technology giving us problems. It’s probably a good idea to really look over things to make sure you’re not missing anything or not inadvertently saying something you don’t mean… or sending a message to the wrong person.😅

Another big deal about this particular retrograde is that we literally had an eclipse in Mercury’s home and sign of exaltation the day before. We’re likely going to be trying to process what happened and figure out how to deal with a newly ending situation. While it might be hard to deal with in the beginning stages of the retrograde, it can help us a lot more in the long run. Pay attention to the 24th of March because Mercury will go cazimi and there’ll be a moment of insight throughout this confusing time.

MARCH 19TH – SUN CONJOINS NEPTUNE

When the Sun conjoins Neptune we can expect some interesting stuff. In a sense you can enter into a dream world and really enjoy a day of leisure and dreams. Finding some way to really dive into the energy of this day could be great, it can be quite the illusive and cinematic time. I feel like one way to really enjoy this is to read a good book that’ll take you off this planet. Watch a really cool move that’ll again give you a break from the day to day. You could even go out on the town and have a magical experience, but keep in mind things probably aren’t what they seem around this time… think of a bright light in fog, the brighter the light, the harder it is, and we’re talking about the sun.

MARCH 20TH – SUN ENTERS ARIES

The Sun entering Aries is the Sun entering it’s exaltation. We’re talking about a time in which the day is really starting to take over again and life is being breathed back into us. Fun and joy could possibly be some of the things some people are feeling, and if you aren’t paying attention to anything else, it could be a nice moment. The Sun entering into Aries really does give a huge boost of vitality to all because it’s moving back into dominance. It’s getting back into power and the day/night ratio balances out and the sun slowly starts to move into dominance. Aries topics will take center stage. Use the energy to start accomplishing that which you want and become more independent.

MARCH 22ND – THE SUN CONJOINS A RETROGRADE VENUS

VENUS CAZIMI

For those who have been wondering what’s going on while Venus has been traveling backwards for these few weeks and trying to understand the story, today is a big day. Whenever the Sun and Venus meet up at the exact same degree in the sky and, for some, within arch minutes of each other, it’s like the energy is infused and the energy for Venus is renewed and she’s ready for her next 1 1/2 year cycle… kind of. Venus and the sun will typically meet up about every year and a half and they do so in the same sign in about 8 year increments. It’s a very orderly affair and gives direction for how Venus’ story will look until at the least the next meeting. If you want to know how this retrograde is rhyming with your past, look back 8 years. If you look back 8 years to the last cazimi and see how that colored the whole of the retrograde, you can probably get hints for this cazimi as well.

Either way, a conjunction with the sun is important because planets, when coming in contact with the sun, are usually quite debilitated. It’s like getting burnt down and refined by the sun until it his the cazimi point and then that get’s refined some more as the planet leaves the center of the sun and is burned until it breaks free.

MARCH 24TH THE SUN CONJOINS A RETROGRADE MERCURY

Just as we saw with the Venus retrograde a couple of days ago, Mercury is also having his energies renewed. He’s getting a new mission call as the messenger for the king. This is a brief moment during the retrograde where there is clarity. It’s a pause in the chaos and a point in which it’s like the Sun and Mercury’s energies are synced up and moving as one, even if only for a few hours. Take advantage of this time and pay attention to any insights that may come in.

MARCH 27TH – VENUS RE-ENTERS PISCES AND IMMEDIATELY CONJOINS A DEPARTING NEPTUNE

Venus moves out of Aries and into Pisces. This could be like a break for her during this retrograde cycle because even though she’s still retrograde and retracing the zodiac, at least now she’s somewhere where the energies are more congruent with her own natural energies. She’s effectively moved out of detriment, where she’d have to be creative to accomplish her goals, and into her exaltation, where she’s got everything she needs nearby and can more easily signify what which she’d like. Since Venus is a benefic energy, her ability to bring more blessings is amplified here again, though due to the retrograde nature, the blessings might take longer to manifest or they might be more inward focus. It’d be great if some people learned to unconditionally love themselves during this time so when they go to love others, they won’t accept something that isn’t right for them.

MARCH 29TH – PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE IN ARIES

This here is an interesting way to almost close out the month and to both close out this eclipse season and the eclipses on the Aries – Libra axis. This will be the last eclipse on the Aries libra axis for around 9 years and the last time the nodes will be on the sides they’re at now for the next 18 years. This is only a partial eclipse because the nodes are in different signs that the new moon and also, they’re not too close to the degrees in which the sun and moon are meeting. This doesn’t mean that the eclipse isn’t important and that it’s not going to have that much of an impact on your life. It means that energy might not be as direct and it might actually weirdly connect a few parts of your life that you may not have expected. Namely the Pisces, Virgo and Aries sections of your chart and thus your life.

This is also a very interesting eclipse because it is happening at the same degree that Mercury went retrograde and only a degree off from where Venus went retrograde. That means that there will be various re-activations of this energy when those planets go back through this degree when they’re direct. A thing I like about it is that they’ll likely help us understand what happened on or around this day, and since Venus is a benefic planet, she can probably help infuse the energy with something positive that supports the energy that the eclipse is trying to bring in.

I’ll do a more extensive look at this eclipse a bit later in my blog section, so look out for that.

MARCH 30TH – NEPTUNE INGRESSES INTO ARIES

Here we’ve got the next big outer planet shift which is promising to really, really shift our perspective and really affect life in a bunch of different ways. It’s giving us a sneak peak of the next 15 years or so because Neptune will go back into Pisces for a few months at the end of the year and return to Aries in 2026, where it will stay for a while. What’s interesting is that the Neptunian energy was very present in the last two Eclipses. Due to the fact that Neptune is so close to the nodes, and they cause the eclipses, it’s energy was very, very strong in both eclipses. It’s interesting that shortly after the eclipse, Neptune enters into Aries and will immediately start to blur the way we see that energy. It’s like the eclipse the day before was like a supercharged intro to the Neptune in Aries energy. I’m sure there’s going to be a lot that we can say about this ingress and these energies mixing. I again will take the approach that the energies will affect each other. I cannot help but say that I see a full-on spiritual war really kicking into high gear and the rise of really “interesting” belief systems, as well as a fight for dominance in the religious sphere. Righteous warriors anyone? --- Eff… I think we’ve already got someone using that, I really hope it isn’t a rise of that. Anywho, many say that we’ve been in a spititual war for a while, and I get that, it’s just that now we’ve got a planet which is like a carrier of that spiritual energy literally waltzing into the sign of war. Aries’ connection to war has been reaffirmed during the last few years with us having strong war activities during the peak eclipse times on the Aries-Libra axis. Neptune’s ingress into Aries is even getting it’s introduction through an eclipse. Nervertheless, we can also really start to see the idealization of war and maybe even confusion when it comes to war in our present lives.

We might see a rise in the sentiments of the hero being the soldier ago. The idealized person that we want will go from being a spiritual and Piscean person to a war-like Arian person. Neptune rules over idealization, ideals, dreams, fantasies and things of the sort. The ideals are effectively shifting and these shifts are those that mark generations and affect us all on a psychological level as well. This one will likely be tapping into the spiritual also.

I hope that with more people being aware of astrology, more people will see how these things are playing out and how others with this knowledge can be using the knowledge of these energies to manipulate situations. Hopefully there will be enough people tuning into deeper, true astrology, that the knowledge of the role of Neptune when it comes to deception is also kept in the collective conscious. Collective conscious is also a really big Neptune thing because it is the whole of something, the connected nature of our beings, and again as the collective conscious moves into Aries, that brings us all into war, fight, anger and desire. This will be a time where tensions will be rising to collective highs and it’s something we already starting to see in the world. Manipulation of feelings and sentiments can get people to do all kinds of things.

We have to become more conscious and raise consciousness of the side of Neptune that reminds us of the fact that we’re all connected. Our collective experiences are affecting us all. A whole bunch of people in this world are suffering really horrendous things that don’t need to be happening. That is affecting the souls of all those currently present on this planet in one way or another. If we consciously connect to this energy and work to lift the energies to help the higher manifestations of the Aries energies come about, the outcomes don’t have to be the same as the last time Neptune was in Aries. Btw, the last time it entered into Aries was 1861… Anyone in the US know of anything significant that happened in 1861? (If not, you’re on-line, google US and 1861. If you want to be creeped out even more, look at the exact date that Neptune entered Aries and the day that said event started.) Can anyone see a repeat of those energies in our current times?

At the end of the day, things like war will hurt us all as a people. Neptune connects us to the other side, to peace, unconditional love, but we have to pay attention to the energy we buy into and where we put our focus. Neptune also is very linked to media and masses. Where is the media directing the energy of the masses? War, fight and separation are real issues, but they don’t have to dictate our personal stories and each person contributes to the whole. If you read this and see some of this stuff play out in real-time, be aware, and do what you can to protect yourself. Also, use it to understand that not everyone is aware so you can probably apply a bit more grace and understanding to them as well. These times are likely to get really dicey and really fast. Aries is fire. We’ve got Pluto in air. Air and fire are both fast acting elements. In LA we saw what the combination of air and fire can do. Didn’t we? Uranus will soon complete the trio and we’ll be looking at things changing faster than we’ve ever seen in the past or ever thought imaginable. We'll also probably benefit from learning to distinguish the difference between a people and their government. For my fellow Americans, does our government and it's actions always represent you and your wants, desires and beliefs? Would you like to be classified by the actions of either our current or past president? Remember that even though the voices of others may not be shown on a world-wide stage for many reasons, there people are often not represented in the actions of most governments. You may be one who believes those on the other side of the political spectrum are being manipulated. Apply this understanding to the world. The people of the world are suffering on large scales for the ambitions of the few. This isn't sustainable and there will be a shake-up. I would not like for my loved ones to be punished for things they didn't support or were tricked into supporting. Would you? Can you apply this line of thinking to people you may currently believe all hate you and deserve to be eliminated? Do you trust you're getting all the facts in an un-biased manner?

My personal prayer is that more people find a genuine connection to source, God, the universe or whatever fits their beliefs. That they connect on a very personal level and are able to trust that connection. Churches might be mobilized and they might truly believe that they’re fighting the beast or the whore or whatever they’re being led to believe… but we’ve got to look at most of the teachings of most of the greats throughout religions and spiritual beliefs. Our interpersonal connection and love are always exalted. If you’re going against that, who’s side are you on? If you’re supporting or looking for the elimination of a people, which mark do you carry? Have you thought to pray for your own answers and guidance on these issues? Are you open to receiving an answer which might conflict with your current beliefs and following it?
