I Am Strength

Just in time for the fall equinox and to celebrate Olivia on her first birthday in the Spirit realm, we invite you to join us for 8th House Healers’ Season 2- the second leg of The Fool’s Journey through the Tarot.

‘I Am Strength’ is dedicated to the memory of Olivia Newton John 9.26.1948 - 8.8.22.

There is an infinite force about us, like a cosmic Möbius strip; we are part of its perpetual balancing act.

Divine Strength is like a fulcrum, it takes finesse to find the sweet spot, to exert, to hold back, to bring the head into harmony with the heart.

Acknowledgments:

Olivia Newton John (John Farrar, Xanadu), Solid Gold, ELO, The Police, The Beatles, Arthur E. Waite and Pamela Colman Smith, Alistair Crowley and Lady Freida Harris, Carol Bridges, Sarah Powers, Tarot of the Crone and Dark Goddess Tarot by Ellen Lorenzo Prince, El Goliath Tarot (Sinead O’Connor), Anima Mundi Tarot, Children of Litha Tarot, Esmerlize Wisdom of Field & Forest Tarot; The Heart's Electromagnetic Field Is Your Superpower: Training Heart-Brain Coherence

*Corrections: Eliza discusses a social media post she made from the Xanadu movie soundtrack. The song/video was ‘I’m Alive’. To clarify, this song AND the title track from the film, ‘Xanadu’, were both written, performed, and produced by Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) mastermind, Jeff Lynne, not John Farrar. Apologies for any confusion!

*Eliza mispronounces ‘Chiron’ but has since learned it is said ‘Kai-Ron’. Oops!

Conversations on Consciousness II

Is there more to our conscious and unconscious states of mind? 8th House Healers’ special series, ‘Conversations on Consciousness’ returns!

Peel back layers of dreaming and waking, of those liminal spaces in between, and explore how we can access these realms for our individual and collective awareness and healing. This conversation has everything-- lucid dreaming, Patsy Cline, psychic birdies, EVPs, astral projection and more things asking the question, "whaaaa!?".... ~ Stefon (SNL, Bill Hader)

I Am The Hermit

There’s a reason we want to head for the hills when we need a break from the hustle and bustle of life. The Hermit archetype reminds us to seek guidance and illumination from our own self-reflection in solitude.

In the quiet and the dark, we are more receptive to messages from Spirit.

“Within nature, within your mind, seek out the still and sacred places where magic is heard and felt and seen. Spend enough time to feel this as an integral part of who you are. Learn through experience over instruction. Follow intuition over authority. Ask invisible friends to be your companions. Explore and deepen relationships with unseen beings.”-The Dark Goddess Tarot, Ellen Lorenzi-Prince
