Guns and the Right to Bear Arms – Beyond Victims and Villains

A Conversation with Progressive Gun-Owner Veronica Monet

“Every child should learn the appropriate use of arms — for hugging.” — Swami Beyondananda

The problem with “hot button” issues like gun control / 2nd Amendment rights is that they are “hot” — lots of heat, not nearly enough light. From the meta-view, they keep the culture wars alive, and this war prevents “we the people” from uniting around the larger issues of governance, what my friend and associate Joseph McCormick calls “who’s in charge of who’s in charge”.

So it may be that the Parkland students’ movement, while seeking to address the problem at a higher level, could easily be diverted into positionality that avoids the real problem. This week’s guest, self-described progressive and gun-owner Veronica Monet takes us deeper into the conversation: Why IS the school-shooting problem so indigenous to the USA? How do we protect the rights of individual citizens, and minimize harm to everyone else? Which weapons should be legal and which should not? How do we prevent these tragedies, and how much of that has to do with gun control legislation?

You may remember Veronica from our previous interview a few months ago on the #METOO movement, citing her own experience as a rape survivor, sex therapist and counselor. In this interview, she contrasts her revulsion at her father’s obsession with guns with her own experience — having them as handy protectors as she lived in the woods alone for eight years.

If you’re ready for common sense and uncommon wisdom on a complex and divisive issue, tune in this Tuesday, April 10th at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET.

Learn About the Moon Phases, Chiron and the Asteroids

There is a lot more to astrology than just Sun signs and daily horoscopes. Not only do astrologers use the planets and their connections to interpret an individual’s chart or to look at the heavens to forecast but there so many more heavenly bodies that are used.

The Moon phases are a vital part of astrology. The Moon is that bright, luminous orb we see in the night sky, counterpart to the fiery Sun in daytime. In astrology, the lunar light rules the unconscious realms of our minds, the stuff dreams are made of. Our instinctual reactions can be affected by the Moon’s phases over the course of a month, or to be more specific, 29.5 Earth days, as the Moon grows from a small crescent to a large glowing globe and then decreases in size back to nothing.

The Moon, of course, doesn’t really shrink or grow, but our view of the Moon from our vantage point here on earth changes due to the relative positions of the Sun, Earth and Moon. This is why we see lunar phases. There are eight noticeable phases of the Moon: The New Moon, the Crescent Moon, the First Quarter Moon, the Gibbous Moon, the Full Moon, the Disseminating Moon, the Third Quarter Moon and the Balsamic Moon.

The Asteroids are another overlooked yet important component to astrology. Asteroids are small and rocky, and do not qualify as planets. However, the larger ones have distinct qualities associated with them, astrologically speaking. Astrologers use the four largest asteroids — Ceres (pronounced SEER-eez), Juno, Vesta and Pallas Athena — as feminine archetypes. In addition, many astrologers add Chiron (pronounced KY-ron) to the mix.
