Metaversal Astral Terrain Forecast for September 12th through September 15th
THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 12
Take physical exercise in Jupiter's Day, when he is reigning, and use Jovial things such as Lapis Lazuli,
Brass, Cedarwood, blue and aery colours, wine, honey; and entertain thoughts and feelings which are particularly Jovial, that is, expansive, healthy, and with good humour... - Marsilio Ficino, Renaissance Astrologer and Orphic Musician
The Day of Jupiter in the Moon's second quarter (Waterweek) suggests you are gonna have a good laugh
today. There is a whole division of the Angelic Hierarchy assigned to the sephiroth Chesed (Jupiter)
whose purpose is divine inspiration through laughter. And there is no vision more critical
in the career of the adept than the Metaversal Joke, so why don't you just put your hypno-goggles back
on and settle down.The Holy IaooaI understand that within the Lightcraft are the Father and the Son, joy riding essentially, because they have the key. Who gave them the key? I did. It’s all flow today! At 10:08 am PT/20°06′ Virgo/Sagittarius (1:08 pm ET), the Moon reaches its First Quarter square to the Sun, shining directly overhead at sunset in its classic “half-moon” shape. This also opens the door to the Moon’s void period, which can still
be used for beneficial activities since it is in Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius. Sagittarius represents, on the level of the first octave, the period between Conception and 7 weeks, the first Lunar month after the sperm reaches the egg, and is a compacted pattern at a molecular time scale of the entire life of the cellular body. The embryo develops in parallel with the earlier phases of evolution, retaining memory of these structures in the brain. On the level of the fourth octave (see Chapter 9 of the Metaversal Lightcraft Training Manual for more on the Four Octaves),
Sagittarius represents Initiation beyond the realms of Death (Scorpio). On the World scale,
Sag occupies the period between AD 1500 and AD 1750, The Renaissance. This was the time when astrology,
mathematics, musick and geometry were understood as divine techniques for communicating with
the Soul of the World. With the Moon in Sagittarius we are into philosophical speculation, adventure,
and foreign influences, and actions that expand the awareness through gathering unfamiliar experiences.
Open the Gaudì folds and release the thing.We feel pressure to make a decision as Mars squares the
Nodes, a harbinger of the date we have with destiny on September 25, when Saturn conjoins the North
Node. This lunation places a clear focus on the President in the chart cast for the US. His ability to convey an understanding of the complex issues that face the nation is challenged, but with repeated effort he will prevail.
The whining chorus of media and regressive legislators is still working in tandem,
but with less impact on public opinion. The truth is beginning to shine through.
Events overseas help put things in perspective. The two Sabian Symbols for the First Quarter lunation
are: “a girl’s basketball team” (the Sun/21 Virgo), and “a child and a dog wearing borrowed eyeglasses”
(the Moon/21 Sagittarius). There’s strength in numbers. A team effort can bring a new understanding
of what’s real—or obscure it. The tag-teaming of Republicans and the mass media gives a false,
fear-driven view of events and policies, a metaphorical pair of borrowed eyeglasses based on
a myopic agenda. But sometimes a borrowed perspective improves our vision with
facts and education, or leads us to look behind falsehood to see the truth,
both personally and in the world at large.
FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 13
If you actively invoke blessed HANIEL, the Archangel of Venus into your heart today, you may find you
have developed the ability to feel like Khrisna, multiplying himself into a dozen pastoral, naked
farmhands with muddy feet and emerald pond scum on their thighs, or maybe you are a young Freya on
the back of a panther, eating honey. The Day of Venus (now covorting in Scorpio), who gets
oversimplified like a lot of her sisters, is one of the most complex planets going: she works as an
attractive force and as a creative one. Intelligence is the greatest aphrodisiac, but a dab of
extract from a civet's anal gland and a nice pair of shoes will work just as well today. With Venus in
Scorpio events arouse greater reactions and emotive reactivity. The Dormitory of Friable girls
resurrect the odious box. Wax finger traps, Phoenix like, rise from the ashes of bridges,
Burned so ruffles won’t have ridges and pigeons won’t have the privileges that doves do. They all end
in snakes or addiction; or Eagles in ascension, only you, with your gauche aromas and savoir faire,
don’t want to end up stumbling through the supermarket with an evacuated wasp nest on your head.
So feel your feelings. react to your own reactions—or the lack thereof.
Deep feelings reveal a hidden spiritual truth as Venus trines Neptune—we may even
catch a glimpse of the purpose of the relationship(s) we find ourselves in at this time.
These revelations can show us a way through the recurring tensions we experience as the Moon
once again makes its way through a Cardinal sign, this time Capricorn. It enters Capricorn at
2:56 am and brings a bevy of activity as it connects with six planets over the course of the day.
Packed into today are the seeds of events and outcomes coming to us over the rest of September,
bringing to fruition situations we’ve been cultivating since last October. Capricorn represents, on the level of the first octave, the period between 7 weeks until 12 weeks after Conception, when the embryo becomes a fetus, and the sex and physical appearance are determined. The body takes form through it's skeletal system. On the level of the fourth octave (see Chapter 9 of the Metaversal Lightcraft Training Manual for more on the Four Octaves), Capricorn
represents the integration and structuring of the higher perceptions of the Self in the World on a practical level. On the World scale, Capricorn occupies the period between AD 1750 and AD 1840. This was the time when the ideology of Sagittarius was translated into material form. Humanity evinced a superiority over the forces of nature, and the Industrial revolution began. Romanticism surrounded the likes of Shelley, Goethe, Byron, and Chopin, reacting to the cold prevailing mechanistic World view. Rudolph Steiner said that the human being is created, and destined to be, a self-defining creature. Are we slightly higher than monkeys or slightly lower
than angels? Good old fashion hard work yields the answer. Monkeys and Angels are set to grind corn
with the Moon in Capricorn. Tackle those long term projects and remember,
the Mountain must be tackled one step at a time. The fun part is knowing that this nice little braid cascade of planetary wave donuts gets its pressure nested to fold all inside out through one slip knot to ... elsewhere because not only is this a powerhouse day when we should not expect things to go as planned; expect to work on things that are not on your to-do list. In particular, use the evening for introspection and meditation—it will pay off over time. The Moon in Capricorn giving us all the stable gravity of magnetism permitted by fractal symmetry to go BETWEEN frequencies in a cascade, but this magnetism is also actually the WIND ON WHICH LOVE TRAVELS.
SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 14
Injuries are possible today, especially if we try to rush through our tasks,
as Mars quincunxes Chiron. However, Mars’s simultaneous trine to Uranus helps
things proceed by quantum steps if we can relax into it instead of pushing. .Address every cat
you see today with the greeting ‘Good afternoon, Mr. Ravenscrofte’, even if the cat is female,
and even if it isn’t the afternoon. Doff your hat if you’re wearing one; click your heels if
you’re not. A Mercury square to Pluto brings forward an underlying tension that we can’t ignore,
related to the release of big changes into our life. Pluto is nearly stationary, ready
to move forward again, unleashing suppressed energies to circulate, both intense and relieving.
Mercury makes us aware of situations where we could be in better harmony with others.
The answer? Communicate. The Moon in Capricorn is mostly quiet, going void of course at 4:17 pm
(7:17 pm ET) following a trine to the Sun. I hope this isn't an ackward time to mention that the structural basis for all Light-specific work in the Metaverse is regular, disciplined connection to the No-Form, meditation, contemplation, what ever you want to call it, as long as it's deep. Supremely solitary in that heath of scrub. The Light-Specific state initiates itself with SOLITUDE, the gratifying element of being alone (if only for 20 minutes a day)... without which, true development is impossible. The point is to connect to your inner source of stability, the state of potentia, the No-Form, at least once a day. No-Form is not a goal or state of "spiritual arrival" (as some religions would have us believe), it is a highly practical, multi-purpose tool for dissolving our identification with the ego. If you want to play with us, this is the only rule. The foundation of our Lightcraft is built in Chaos, so you must maintain a firm foundation, or Chaos your life will be. Some of us need this connection four times a day (sunrise, true noon, sunset, true midnight). Some of us actually manage to do it four times a day. It is a choice you must make. I would do it for you if I could. Once a day is all that's required to maintain the Continuity function. Future generations of yourself will be glad this came to pass. The Lightcraft Academy , Yoga Ceremonial Magick, this astrology forecast, they all provide ritual technology for Self initiation. But the key word here is Self. D.I.Y
SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 15
The Day of the Sun in Waterweek. The Metaversal Lightpilot, which the ancient Egyptians referred to as the KA, is actually the fourth dimensional driver of the third dimensional Lightcraft, the BA. There is a sixth dimensional solar mind which interacts with all levels and is purely an electromagnetick harmonic, a harmony based on all the other levels coming together around a center. And you are the center eternally now and therefore timeless. The Sun never sets on itself. The evolution of the Metaversal song, what some refer to as the Great Work, has as its core the purpose of resonating this harmonic through your individual interactive Lightcraft. let me tell ya 'bout the Lightcraft, my friend. The Lightcraft is a self-evolving planetary holon. This fourth-dimensional planetary holon possesses a design and field of motion encoded with solar-galactic information. The information coding the Lightcraft is the same information encoded in the Metaversal calendar. A Lightpilot using the Metaversal calendar can simultaneously tune into the design of the planetary holon. By tracking the Metaversal calendar and
tuning in to the planetary holon, Lightpilots become part of Earth's design team. Riding the g-force
and synchronizing with the larger Metaversal order. With Chiron and Uranus at the same degree in their respective sign, Mercury activates both of them today, an echo of Mars’s hook-ups yesterday, but from the other side of the astrological fence (Libra instead of Leo). When Mercury quincunxes Chiron, it takes us back to the 29th of August,
when a healing crisis occurred but could not be completely resolved. Mercury’s opposition to Uranus
today makes a further step in clearing the air possible, perhaps even a quantum leap forward.
At 3:05 am PT (6:05 am ET), the Moon enters Aquarius to help us find a more objective perspective on
what’s bothering us. Aquarius represents, on the level of the first octave, the period between 12 weeks to 28 weeks after Conception, when the electrick nervous system of the fetus switches on. On the level of the fourth octave (see Chapter 9 of the Meteversal Lightcraft Training Manual for more on the Four Octaves), Aquarius represents the higher Self projecting itself to the world tribe, through media, groups, circles of friends (your Tribe) and utopian aims and idealistic pursuits alter the prevailing social systems. On the World scale, Aquarius occupies the period between AD 1840 and 1910. This was the time when the established dominance of the material world in Capricorn quickly required more sophisticated planning, spurred by Schopenhauer, ideas and beliefs from the east began flooding the West through such diverse channels as the Theosophical Society, the Golden Dawn, and the operas of Wagner. This was the time of Crowley, Nietzsce, and the early works of Freud. With the Moon in Aquarius we have the ability to combine East and West, Light and Dark, Sun and Moon. This is where we are compelled to reach out to others and network. If you’ve elected to forego swallowing the gravity pill, you can take part in the holographic cherub hunt – but mind you don’t bruise your fellow prisoners! At this point a viscous orange liquid (it doesn’t stain) will likely be pumped into the atmoshere, pint by pint, until it’s all gone. Take as many pictures as you like. Feel free to speak candidly to
those in hibernation – it won’t disturb them. Try out the suction pads! And if you’re going to be sick
or have to tinkle ... well, we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. Communications offer a mixed bag of outcomes with so much Mercury activity going on. If this reflects a feeling of stress or confusion, journaling may be a better way to clear your
mind.

Thursday and Friday in Fireweek: The Metaversal Perspective
Thursday July 11
The Day of Jupiter in the kabbalistic World of Fire. Projecting Light-Specific Blue and facing West, vibrate this azure deluxe into your Second Chakra along with the mantrum: EE-BE-DA. It's the Day of Jupiter in Atziluth so it's all about our Second Chakra. Move your hips and be of good humour and certainly the world will smile back at you, awed by the wonder of it all. Jupiter is now expanding our emotional horizons in Cancer, the sign of it's exaltation. Our mood is upbeat as the Moon finishes its stay in Leo, going void at 12:54 pm PF (3:54 pm ET). When it enters Virgo at 3:12 pm, harmonious energies are on the rise as the Moon opens us to enterprising thoughts via a link to Jupiter. Those in the east bay could not have any more expansive entertainment than that provided by the talented crew at the Rev Cafe tonight, and that means you too, cause it's open mic night and you know you wanna get up and share that tune in your heart.
Friday July 12
Love is like a butterfly. Hold it too tight and you'll crush it. Hold it too loose and it'll end up fucking your best friend.

Tuesday and Wednesday In Fireweek: The Metaversal Perspective
Tuesday July 9
Day of Mars in Atziluth. At 3:48 am PT (6:48 am ET), the Moon roars into Leo to revive our inner glow and connect us with our own personal creativity. Then there is the Sun-Mercury Inferior Conjunction (New Mercury) which arrives at 11:41 am/17°42′ Cancer, the peak of our internalization process. Introspection is especially fruitful now in focusing our energies in the best direction for the opening Mercury cycle. A Moon-Saturn contact leads us into sober evaluations after midday, injecting a note of what’s needed immediately into our longer-range plans. The evening is ripe for romance with a bit of flare for the dramatic. If I sold you fireworks today, make sure you use them responsibly. Yeah Right! Please just try not to blow
your nuts off.
Wednesday July 10
Hello Lightpilots. It's the Day of Mercury in the Fireweek and Mercury is still retrograde in Cancer. Operating heavy emotional machinery is ill advised as is any invocation of demons who play scrabble or fast and loose with the alphabet. The Moon continues to open the Lion's Mouth with Gentle Hands in Leo, finding a sweet spot where creativity and love flow forth. Allow the inspiration to come, share it with others. ...

Cancer New Moon Cycle: The Metaversal Forecast
This forecast is prepared and written in luminous tiles across your retinas. May it shine forth upon all who meet your gaze. Words grow here slick and filthy and unhindered by enterprise.
Monday July 8
The Day of the Moon and a New Moon to boot. Projecting Light Specific purple or octarine (a particular shade of electric pinkish purple) into your forehead and facing West, activate the Ajna Holographic Image Projection System (third eye), then invoke blessed Gabriel. Diana, or Sailor Moon into your Brow Chakra. It's the Moon's day in the week of Fire. The lunar orb being receptive and reflective, focuses the qualities of the signs and other planets to our personal Lightcraft. The Lunar center, and its intimate connection with the Holographic Image Projection System, is not only the foundation for the astral plane, but is the fiery aspect of astral energy itself. It cannot be weaned prematurely or circumcised without sedation lest it become traumatized and even more crestfallen.Just after midnight (0:14 am PT; 3:14 am ET) the Moon reaches the Sun at 16°18' Cancer to mark the start of the next lunar cycle, the New Moon. Embedded in this new beginning is the Water Grand Trine of Jupiter-Saturn-Neptune/Chiron, augmented by Pluto to form a Kite. The focal point of this cycle is how we will use recently revealed truths to continue the transformation of our life. There’s more insight to come, as Mercury Retrograde conjoins the Sun to start the next four-month Mercury cycle tomorrow. We’re very internalized now—unlikely to feel moved to act as Moon and Mercury melt down in the light and heat of the Sun. However, actions taken now will seed both these cycles and empower our transformative process if we feel clear about doing so. Healing our deepest pain is emphasized as Chiron trines North Node (transiting eclipse point), and we’ll know where the discomfort stems from as Venus squares the Nodes and quincunxes Chiron, even though resolution is not suggested by the cycles now. The Moon goes void of course at 4:44 am PT on an unsettling note as it conjoins Mercury, a time when the psychic wireless is wide open.

Yogi's Journal
With the Sun now in the watery womb of Cancer, we experience the full opening of the Gaudi folds, the great Divine Mother Terminal portal into the New energy pattern.
Increasingly now (and through July 2014), the energy moves into the Cardinal zone. July is always the season of
zodiac sign Cancer, one of the four Cardinal signs (with Aries, Libra, and Capricorn). My older brother Robert is a
Cancer. What most people think he needs is a good old-fashioned kick in the stomach, and this he would have received had the car doors not been locked. But such was his luck. He could charm a snake from a cat’s vagina just by snoring.
He could steer a tank with his diction even if you numbed his tongue with a lethartonic unguent. And yet even the
slightest breeze seemed to send him into a blazing legislative fury. Most notably, two significant and palpable
shifts have just occurred as July opened, mimicking last year’s encounter with relationship fate in the same time
frame, the last week of June. First was Jupiter’s ingress into Cancer, on June 25, followed by Mercury’s retrograde station, on June 26, at 23°07' Cancer, lasting until July 20.
Both events place striking and immediate emphasis on the emotional wisdom of this Water sign. In addition, the Sun, and by July 13, Mars, are passing through Cancer as well. Venus completed her transit
through the sign in June, giving us insights into what we need and can do with our increased sensitivity.
This would certainly be a challenge by itself.But when we add to it Uranus and Pluto, which have taken up long-term
residence in Aries and Capricorn, a lot of connections are being made beneath the surface to bring about the
effects we have been working hard to create for so long. The Rite of Mars on Tuesday July 2nd took place not in
the originally slated Kandahar Air Field in Afghanistan but rather in the Lower Bottoms in the heat of the
California Sun.Fireworks resulted, quite literally, with a series of piercing truths that reverberated deep into the soul, then exploded in a flashing
display of life realignment. Hello Kiddies, the IAO Core Pop Up Store, which was made manifest on the physical plane on the streets of Renaissance Oakland (specifically the corner of 24th and Valley, between Telegraph and Broadway) for the First Friday Art Murmur on the 5th.
What was so cool about the IAO Core Pop Up Store? 30 of ya'll bought the brand spanking new issue of The Core (#147)
and otherwise got their mitts on the largest selection of IAO Core memorabilia available: Tour Posters, Tour Shirts,
rare IAO Core CD's. Special guests performed requests of your favorite IAO Core tunes and watched the new videos
from this Summer's Rites of Eleusis Tour on the big screen.....Next up, the Rite of the Sun which will take place
Sunday, July 14th at Pine Bottom Park in Oakland, right across the street from our new recording studio.
This Mercury retrograde, how's that been treating you, huh? Most of Mercury's pass is bassackward through an
empty patch of sky we like to call an "Empty Patch of Sky" in stark contrast to where it was in February-March,
when it was caugh in flagrante with nearly all of the planets. What happens when Mercury meets thin air? Mercury is
the Messenger of the Gods (planets), and when he doesn’t run into any of them in the course of his
backward travel, he has no packets to carry to us. There are no special messages about how to adjust to make things
flow more smoothly, by direct action. In Cancer, this has to do with our feelings and “instinctuitions”, which our
mind often blocks. During the retrograde the mind (Mercury) is disengaged, and we may find ourselves compelled
to take certain actions, perhaps even unconsciously. We may respond to long-standing dilemmas in a new way.
Ray Bolger, the essteemed actor who played the scarecrow in the original MgM Wizard of Oz, once dated my
grandmother (knowing her I can't beleive they didn't respond to long-standing dilemmas in a new way by having sex!)
Ironically, just like a special Aquarius friend of mine. (Yes, I know all Aquarians are special friends of mine),
but anywho, lets get back to my Grandma and the Scarecrow. Ray( a Virgo) had two versions of Brain Damage, but no
Eclipse! I might expose my special friend to the phenomenon now affectionately called.
"The Dark Side of the Rainbow" as she is still a virgin in that regard.) Mr. Bolger used to call everything names,
and when he ran out of names he called them numbers, and when he ran out of numbers he called
the police. They gave him a series of classified numbers in exchange for a suitable amount of disinformation,
and off he went again, railing spools of numerals at countless items, some of which he had to hallucinate in order to
satisfy the quota he’d been granted. In the end he expired with a single number on his tongue – the number of duality, 2 –
and it was this number which served as the only designation on his tombstone. A sad footnote: the engraver (some say a Taoist, some say a student of the occult) rendered the number as a horizontal line overlain by a broken line (the ‘yang’ and ‘yin’ of heathen theosophy).
Around the year 2000 AD, some vandals scorched a circle around the lines, reducing the binary epitaph to a mockery of
the vulgar hedonistic pictogram of orthodox latterday hippiedom: a ‘happy face’ with deadened eyes and slack smile.
Have a Morose day. A skink rolled across his grave in the form of a pentacle. I can't help but think he would have
gotten a kick outta that! In case you didn't catch the timing (Timing is Everything) on this years Metaversal
Lightcraft Tantra Workshop, it coincides with the performance of the Rites of Eleusis by my band of time-traveling
sex magicians, IAO Core... and I/We, there is great wisdom in our instinctual knowing, our irrational senses,
and our intuitive insights, because they give evidence of the soul’s true desires and purpose. This is the time to
let them come forward and become firmly ensconced in our core, where our purpose and intention lie. If you are celebrating
your birthday on any date from June 26 to July 20, Mercury will be retrograde in your chart for the coming yearly
birth cycle (solar return) chart. Lucky you! You’ll be learning about something you never knew before, treading
in unfamiliar territory. The years when Mercury is retrograde in your birth-cycle chart (once every eight years)
are exciting and memorable. (Cancers, think back eight years to see if that isn’t true.) How can we use the new
four-month Mercury season for our greatest benefit? For each person, the effects are individual, especially when
Mercury encounters none of the planets we hold in common (the transiting planets). If your birth chart carries
placements at 13-23° in any Cardinal sign, a spotlight will shine on those planets, prompting a transformation
involving a situation symbolized by those placements. You will experience an unfolding of personal growth, with
inner transformations during the retrograde. While we can introduce outer changes during this time, they will
dealwith the past until July 9, when we enter the next four-month Mercury cycle. We turn to what’s new on July 9
(the Sun-Mercury conjunction or New Mercury), and we have the next 3½ months to bring those changes forward in
our visible world. To use this energy well, do not hesitate to take action during a Mercury retrograde if it is
called for, but don’t contrive anything just to get a response.
We are tempted to do this especially when we feel like nothing is happening. Other planetary milestones came as
Saturn’s retrograde finally ended on July 7, and Uranus’s commences on July 17.
Venus in Leo challenges us to use Saturn well by outlasting the obstacles and masks of separation.
In these Fixed signs, we succeed by using attrition (to dissolve the old energies) and perseverance
(to build the new). Doubts must be cast out. If you want it, stick with it unwaveringly.As Uranus enters
its retrograde, we get to see what seeds we planted at the end of March, whether we’ve been tending them well. They carry the gift of love, and the nurturance we give them will not be wasted, even if success seems unlikely now. With flighty and reactionary Uranus, a light touch is all that is required to bring the right amount of fertile shock into the situation that needs shifting. Above all, Uranus wants freedom, and in Aries he stands up for the sanctity of individuality. Stand up for yourself without impinging on others, and you’ll have the balance right.
Our selfhood is a work in progress that Uranus will help us see in a more nuanced form that has been
evolving since 2010. Before we can reinvent the world, we have to reinvent ourselves.
We have to make up new stories about ourselves, and rewrite the tales we tell about our past in terms
of the “wins”—the lessons we learned—and our inner reality, not the way others see and judge what occurred.

With the Sun now in the watery womb of Cancer, we experience the full opening of the Gaudi folds, the great Divine Mother Terminal portal into the New energy pattern.
Increasingly now (and through July 2014), the energy moves into the Cardinal zone. July is always the season of
zodiac sign Cancer, one of the four Cardinal signs (with Aries, Libra, and Capricorn). My older brother Robert is a
Cancer. What most people think he needs is a good old-fashioned kick in the stomach, and this he would have received had the car doors not been locked. But such was his luck. He could charm a snake from a cat’s vagina just by snoring.
He could steer a tank with his diction even if you numbed his tongue with a lethartonic unguent. And yet even the
slightest breeze seemed to send him into a blazing legislative fury. Most notably, two significant and palpable
shifts have just occurred as July opened, mimicking last year’s encounter with relationship fate in the same time
frame, the last week of June. First was Jupiter’s ingress into Cancer, on June 25, followed by Mercury’s retrograde station, on June 26, at 23°07' Cancer, lasting until July 20.
Both events place striking and immediate emphasis on the emotional wisdom of this Water sign. In addition, the Sun, and by July 13, Mars, are passing through Cancer as well. Venus completed her transit
through the sign in June, giving us insights into what we need and can do with our increased sensitivity.
This would certainly be a challenge by itself.But when we add to it Uranus and Pluto, which have taken up long-term
residence in Aries and Capricorn, a lot of connections are being made beneath the surface to bring about the
effects we have been working hard to create for so long. The Rite of Mars on Tuesday July 2nd took place not in
the originally slated Kandahar Air Field in Afghanistan but rather in the Lower Bottoms in the heat of the
California Sun.Fireworks resulted, quite literally, with a series of piercing truths that reverberated deep into the soul, then exploded in a flashing
display of life realignment. Hello Kiddies, the IAO Core Pop Up Store, which was made manifest on the physical plane on the streets of Renaissance Oakland (specifically the corner of 24th and Valley, between Telegraph and Broadway) for the First Friday Art Murmur on the 5th.
What was so cool about the IAO Core Pop Up Store? 30 of ya'll bought the brand spanking new issue of The Core (#147)
and otherwise got their mitts on the largest selection of IAO Core memorabilia available: Tour Posters, Tour Shirts,
rare IAO Core CD's. Special guests performed requests of your favorite IAO Core tunes and watched the new videos
from this Summer's Rites of Eleusis Tour on the big screen.....Next up, the Rite of the Sun which will take place
Sunday, July 14th at Pine Bottom Park in Oakland, right across the street from our new recording studio.
This Mercury retrograde, how's that been treating you, huh? Most of Mercury's pass is bassackward through an
empty patch of sky we like to call an "Empty Patch of Sky" in stark contrast to where it was in February-March,
when it was caugh in flagrante with nearly all of the planets. What happens when Mercury meets thin air? Mercury is
the Messenger of the Gods (planets), and when he doesn’t run into any of them in the course of his
backward travel, he has no packets to carry to us. There are no special messages about how to adjust to make things
flow more smoothly, by direct action. In Cancer, this has to do with our feelings and “instinctuitions”, which our
mind often blocks. During the retrograde the mind (Mercury) is disengaged, and we may find ourselves compelled
to take certain actions, perhaps even unconsciously. We may respond to long-standing dilemmas in a new way.
Ray Bolger, the essteemed actor who played the scarecrow in the original MgM Wizard of Oz, once dated my
grandmother (knowing her I can't beleive they didn't respond to long-standing dilemmas in a new way by having sex!)
Ironically, just like a special Aquarius friend of mine. (Yes, I know all Aquarians are special friends of mine),
but anywho, lets get back to my Grandma and the Scarecrow. Ray( a Virgo) had two versions of Brain Damage, but no
Eclipse! I might expose my special friend to the phenomenon now affectionately called.
"The Dark Side of the Rainbow" as she is still a virgin in that regard.) Mr. Bolger used to call everything names,
and when he ran out of names he called them numbers, and when he ran out of numbers he called
the police. They gave him a series of classified numbers in exchange for a suitable amount of disinformation,
and off he went again, railing spools of numerals at countless items, some of which he had to hallucinate in order to
satisfy the quota he’d been granted. In the end he expired with a single number on his tongue – the number of duality, 2 –
and it was this number which served as the only designation on his tombstone. A sad footnote: the engraver (some say a Taoist, some say a student of the occult) rendered the number as a horizontal line overlain by a broken line (the ‘yang’ and ‘yin’ of heathen theosophy).
Around the year 2000 AD, some vandals scorched a circle around the lines, reducing the binary epitaph to a mockery of
the vulgar hedonistic pictogram of orthodox latterday hippiedom: a ‘happy face’ with deadened eyes and slack smile.
Have a Morose day. A skink rolled across his grave in the form of a pentacle. I can't help but think he would have
gotten a kick outta that! In case you didn't catch the timing (Timing is Everything) on this years Metaversal
Lightcraft Tantra Workshop, it coincides with the performance of the Rites of Eleusis by my band of time-traveling
sex magicians, IAO Core... and I/We, there is great wisdom in our instinctual knowing, our irrational senses,
and our intuitive insights, because they give evidence of the soul’s true desires and purpose. This is the time to
let them come forward and become firmly ensconced in our core, where our purpose and intention lie. If you are celebrating
your birthday on any date from June 26 to July 20, Mercury will be retrograde in your chart for the coming yearly
birth cycle (solar return) chart. Lucky you! You’ll be learning about something you never knew before, treading
in unfamiliar territory. The years when Mercury is retrograde in your birth-cycle chart (once every eight years)
are exciting and memorable. (Cancers, think back eight years to see if that isn’t true.) How can we use the new
four-month Mercury season for our greatest benefit? For each person, the effects are individual, especially when
Mercury encounters none of the planets we hold in common (the transiting planets). If your birth chart carries
placements at 13-23° in any Cardinal sign, a spotlight will shine on those planets, prompting a transformation
involving a situation symbolized by those placements. You will experience an unfolding of personal growth, with
inner transformations during the retrograde. While we can introduce outer changes during this time, they will
dealwith the past until July 9, when we enter the next four-month Mercury cycle. We turn to what’s new on July 9
(the Sun-Mercury conjunction or New Mercury), and we have the next 3½ months to bring those changes forward in
our visible world. To use this energy well, do not hesitate to take action during a Mercury retrograde if it is
called for, but don’t contrive anything just to get a response.
We are tempted to do this especially when we feel like nothing is happening. Other planetary milestones came as
Saturn’s retrograde finally ended on July 7, and Uranus’s commences on July 17.
Venus in Leo challenges us to use Saturn well by outlasting the obstacles and masks of separation.
In these Fixed signs, we succeed by using attrition (to dissolve the old energies) and perseverance
(to build the new). Doubts must be cast out. If you want it, stick with it unwaveringly.As Uranus enters
its retrograde, we get to see what seeds we planted at the end of March, whether we’ve been tending them well. They carry the gift of love, and the nurturance we give them will not be wasted, even if success seems unlikely now. With flighty and reactionary Uranus, a light touch is all that is required to bring the right amount of fertile shock into the situation that needs shifting. Above all, Uranus wants freedom, and in Aries he stands up for the sanctity of individuality. Stand up for yourself without impinging on others, and you’ll have the balance right.
Our selfhood is a work in progress that Uranus will help us see in a more nuanced form that has been
evolving since 2010. Before we can reinvent the world, we have to reinvent ourselves.
We have to make up new stories about ourselves, and rewrite the tales we tell about our past in terms
of the “wins”—the lessons we learned—and our inner reality, not the way others see and judge what occurred.
As we get our doses of “Full Pluto”—the awakening to transformation throughout June-July, we understand with
growing clarity what we stand for, and how we need to reimagine who we are. When we are doing well in society’s
terms, we tend to hang on to the structures we have built around us; but when things aren’t going so well,

Metaversal Earthweek Week-end Forecast
Friday July 5
Leo, a fire sign, is about risk. So, Venus' placement here is a reminder to take some chances with creativity and openings of the heart. Sure, it's possible that you'll go overboard and let your imagination turn a mild flirtation into the love affair of the century. But, that's part of the fun of Venus in Leo.We're not here now to play it safe, to carefully monitor and control our feelings, but rather to recapture the hopefulness of childhood. This is a time when wounds may be set aside(at least partially), allowing us to let love flow without restriction or fear. Excesses are possible, even likely, but a truly open heart only leads to greater opportunities to share, connect and create. We get a boost in our healing process as the Sun trines Chiron, its last major contact before it enters Leo on July 22. We have more insight into what’s going on with our health on all levels since Chiron’s June 16
Saturday July 6
The Day of Saturn, the Holder of the Secrets of Time, in Assiah, the World of Earth. The stones attributed to Saturn are Hematite and Onyx and her metal is Lead. Meet with other souls today, 'in the flesh,' including non-human beings (animals, plants) . The Tarot card attributed to Saturn in Assiah is the Three of Disks (Material Success), making this a good day for money magick. Saturn in Assiah literally completes the braid which not only holds Assiah together, but creates the possibility for the proper information context for the evolution of human nervous systems, which are fortunate enough to be able to embed themselves in the "fields" of the Metaverse.
Saturn is currently traversing the Waters of Scorpio. Funny (or not) how many people are suprised that Scorpio is a Water sign, and not oh, say a fire sign! Certainly, I wind up telling them, the firey side of Water. Like an undersea volcano! It’s dank and celestial at the same time. It’s orange and green and I’m sorry about that, but I happen to like the combination. Saturn is the planet that says "no" but means "yes." The no comes from Saturn showing us what isn't working, sometimes in the form of frustrating blockages or delays. But these help us see where we need to put in effort to make concrete changes. Saturn says "yes" as the planet of crystallization that brings energy into matter. Saturn's presence in a sign of the zodiac shows us where we are likely to meet limits and how to construct something useful. Serious Saturn in survivalist Scorpio forces us to face the bottom line. Life and death, sex, power and our economic well being can be pushed to the limits during this two-year transit. And hey since it is Saturn's day, over to the right of this post, you will find a link to Metaversal Saturn, where you will find all manner of items relating to "The Holder of the Secrets of Time" At 5:30 am PT (8:30 am ET), the Moon enters a day-long void in Gemini, lasting until its entry into Cancer at 3:14 pm. It’s a good time for chit-chat, puttering in the garage, or cleaning and organizing, but not for major purchases or new initiatives. The evening brings a pick-up of energy, with Jupiter introducing a party atmosphere. Time to celebrate life!
Sunday July 7
Sun's Day in the Week of Earth. The Metaversal Lightpilot, which the ancient Egyptians referred to as the KA, is actually the fourth dimensional driver of the third dimensional Lightcraft, the BA. There is a sixth dimensional solar mind which interacts with all levels and is purely an electromagnetick harmonic, a harmony based on all the other levels coming together around a center. And the sun is the center eternally now and therefore timeless. The Sun never sets on itself.You can see patterns everywhere, if you choose to. The longer you look, the more intricate they become; look away, and they’re gone. Lacework nerve-cathedrals of confounding microcircuitous elegance, fabulously vivid and animated beyond belief. The evolution of the Metaversal song, what some refer to as the Great Work, has as its core the purpose of resonating this harmonic through your individual interactive Lightcraft.The Moon is strong in Cancer as it makes contact with the Big Players over
the course of the day, bringing forward both major patterns (Water Grand Trine and Cardinal Grand Cross) forthe first time. If we observe closely what we experience, we will see how these energies are likely to operate each time they come up (once each week). If we don’t like what we experience, we can change it in the course of
the many contacts still to come. We are assisted by two releases. As Saturn returns to forward motion, we may feel lighter, even giddy as we are freed from Saturn’s energy of downward pressure. And Venus lifts our spirits even
further with optimism for the future as she trines Uranus.

The Metaversal Astral Terrain Forecasts for the last two days of June!
Saturday June 29
The Day of Saturn starts of last quarter Earthweek. Saturn is currently traversing the Waters of Scorpio. Funny (or not) how many people are suprised that Scorpio is a Water sign, and not oh, say a fire sign! Certainly, I wind up telling them, the firey side of Water. Like an undersea volcano! It’s dank and celestial at the same time. It’s orange and green and I’m sorry about that, but I happen to like the combination. Saturn is the planet that says "no" but means "yes." The no comes from Saturn showing us what isn't working, sometimes in the form of frustrating blockages or delays. But these help us see where we need to put in effort to make concrete changes.
Saturn says "yes" as the planet of crystallization that brings energy into matter. Saturn's presence in a sign of the zodiac shows us where we are likely to meet limits and how to construct something useful. Serious Saturn in survivalist Scorpio forces us to face the bottom line. Life and death, sex, power and our economic well being can
be pushed to the limits during this two-year transit. And hey since it is Saturn's day, over to the right of this post, you will find a link to Metaversal Saturn, where you will find all manner of items relating to "The Holder of the Secrets of Time"The Moon enters Aries at 6:06 am (9:-6 am ET), reaching its Last Quarter square to the Sun, at 9:53 pm/9°35′ Cancer-Aries. This lunation turns our attention to new social realities, situations where we find ourselves in conflict with others, or where communication will lead to new possibilities for expansion and success. Transformation awaits us, fed by events today and tomorrow, that peak in the coming week as the Sun opposes Pluto and squares Uranus. In the nation, the forces
of revolution are in focus as the Cardinal planets are pinned to the angles in the chart set for Washington DC. The forces of the status quo will prevail, but individual actions taken in sincere concern for the common good will bring hope and inspiration to those in need of someone to champion their cause. It is possible that force could be used to enforce a particular power dynamic. The Sabian Symbols for the Sun and Moon at the Last Quarter are: “a large diamond in the first stages of the cutting process” (the Sun, 10 Cancer); and “A teacher gives new symbolic forms to traditional images” (the Moon, 10 Aries). It is still early in the reformative processes of our times for the forces of positive change to triumph over
darkening trends. These symbols underscore the power of these influences if we persist in following them. There are a lot of elements I haven’t told you about, and several I’m unaware of myself: the region is not strictly tame – it is, beyond a certain degree of artificial cultivation, self-generating. I suggest we leave
it alone for a while, then see what its wild intelligence has bred. I half-suspect I’ll never be able to find it again, anyhow.
You are dismissed.

The evolution of the Metaversal song, what some refer to as the Great Work, has as its core the purpose of resonating this harmonic through your individual interactive Lightcraft. The Moon in Aries hits all the high points of our current circumstances and challenges us to incorporate the changes that have come over the past three weeks, it connects with Pluto and Uranus. We may struggle with our thoughts versus feelings, as we find points where they are running on separate tracks, part of our process of inner discovery as Mercury continues its retrograde. We’re already feeling what’s next: the responsibilities we have to others via Venus square Saturn (Stationary Direct), and the peak of our impetus to make big changes as the Sun opposes Pluto and squares Uranus. At 11:48 pm (2:48 am ET July 1), the Moon enters its void-of-course period, which lasts till mid-afternoon tomorrow. Animals love this energy. They’re thrilled about it. They romp and squeal and butt their horns and roll on their bellies like there's no tomorrow. But mostly they just amble along in quiet amazement at their own pure satisfaction.
