Leo stellium here! I taught myself astrology because I was looking for tools to help me understand what was going on in my life. I think of it as one of the tools I use in a very non-prescriptive manner.
Hi Pria, I had to Google Leo stellium as I'd never heard of it! But yes, isn't astrology useful as a tool?! I'm happy to hear you like to use it too❤️🙏🕊️
Hi Jenna, thanks for reading and commenting. Perhaps my intention is to investigate the difference between radical self-love and acceptance, versus being identified with my ego and thinking I'm either superior or inferior to others - which is what Eckhart Tolle always talks about with the ego. Somewhere there is a balance between radical self-love and acceptance and keeping awareness of my ego, not being identified with ego. But I have to remain vigilant with my ego as it's a tricky little thing😆
Camilla, in all honesty, I don't need a scientific explanation. Which has taken a lot for me to finally say that. I have come to trust the natural signs and inner knowings more than just logical methods. I feel more complete that way. So, yes I listen and look into astrological movements. I am not an expert, very much an apprentice. I also had to look up Leo Stellium that Priya wrote and then looked at my natal chard, Yep just as I thought, three planets in Leo, Sun, Venus and Uranus. And Pluto is in Virgo, but within three degrees of Leo. Moon in Virgo too, all very close together. Anywho! I really appreciated your piece here today.
Thanks so much for reading and letting me know of your appreciation Julie🥰 and yes, I think you and I are on the same page in recognizing our planet is at a pivot point where many have realized that endless consumerism is no longer serving us as a human species nor is it serving our Mother Earth, and it’s time to move away from unsustainable material growth, towards spiritual growth, and it's tools like astrology that can help us with that❤️🙏🕊️
I really enjoyed this piece, Camilla. Not just for its topic and content but for the way you expressed your views on the matter.
I have always felt somewhat confused by anyone who scoffs at alternative ideas of any kind for a bunch of reasons — but most simply because we humans definitely don’t have everything figured out, and so, to scoff at something when you don’t have all the answers seems ignorantly arrogant. Or in other words, I agree with many of the views in your piece :)
Welcome back to the realms of Substack, Michael! It's so good to have you back and to read your words once again😁 and yes, you and I are definitely on the same page when it comes to recognizing that human beings do not have all the answers😁 which actually makes me laugh at myself, as there is definitely a part of myself that wants to have it all figured out🤣🤣🤣
Astrology has been my guiding light for most of my adult life. I love hearing about your experiences! Thank you for having it recorded too. My brain was tired this morning and I didn't have to wait until this afternoon to read it. Just had it playing while I rocked my sleepy puppy. ❤️🍓🐇
Hi Isabella, thanks so much for reading and letting me know your experience too! I'm so grateful that Substack provides a space for these kinds of connections. And I'm also happy to hear you enjoyed the audio. I'm the same - I love to hear writers read aloud their own work.
Camilla, what a beautiful and guiding revelation you came to! Sharing this little PS (funny that it is a PS) seems a natural step in what you are to write, i.e., you already offer the gift of writing about self-transformation. . . .

Love, love, love this one, Camilla! 💕💕💕 I'm a Leo rising too! I'm taking all the self-wisdom to heart.

Ohh I definitely feel that too!
I want to have it all figured out so bad hahaha.
I mean, just because all of humanity thus far hasn’t figured it out, doesn’t mean we can’t... haha :)
lol, thanks for the morning (for me) chuckle. It must be about 10:30 pm in WA!
Yep, it was. And now it’s 10am haha
