Astrology: Who You Are & Who You Think You Are

Astrology shows you who you are when you identify with who you think you are. Since who you think you are is a belief, it is quite easy to define. A belief is fixed, pre-established, keeps replicating itself and does not present anything new.
Astrology shows you the form, the program that you have mistaken for yourself, whose fate has already been decided. Some programs are mostly pleasant, exciting, glorious, others painful, boring, miserable, although they all end the same way. They end with the end of the program, which is the same for everyone, no matter what happened before the end.
If you identify with who you think you are, your life depends on a precise script that you recite completely and faithfully. So it is really useless to make comparisons with the programs of others, to try to be like or better than others. Everything has already been decided.
Astrology can also show you who you are beyond what you think you are. It shows you by highlighting who you are based on who you think you are, so that by contrast you are able to gradually understand who you really are.
At least that is what multidimensional astrology does.
The most important point of a multidimensional birth chart is the center of the chart, where there is usually nothing written or there is a dot.
That dot represents the center of your being not identified with the cycle of space and time. In this point dwells the mystery of who you really are.
Astrology helps you establish a bridge between who you think you are and what you are.

Summer News from the Institutum

“When life asks you to change, see clearly what is necessary and change without any resistance. Consider it as a stepping stone to greater and more wonderful revelations that are there waiting to be made” (Eileen Caddy)
As you may know, last November, the Institutum Provisorium (provisional institute) found itself in a rather pragmatic state of provisionality, due to various events, including the loss of its operational headquarters. Metaphorically, we “ended up on the carpet”, temporarily of course, because this temporary “loss of consciousness” strengthened the multidimensional consciousness that motivates us. Therefore, in the wake of the firm decision to remain faithful to it, we promptly stood up. The recent crisis has allowed us to release obsolete situations, focusing on the spiritual essence of our mission and preserving without compromise the integrity of the work. This process lays the foundation for the transition to new luminous operations aligned with the network of souls with which we are authentically in resonance. In particular, we have realized that our operational headquarters is by its consistent nature both temporary and itinerant. As long as we are passing through this world, we will continue to search for it and discover it every day wherever we find ourselves.
While in winter we have always continued our activities online, with the beginning of spring the institute has also resumed its first in-person events and with the imminent summer the calendar is full of events in different locations. These are both very familiar places (Bologna, Corvaro, Trevignano and Saltburn-by-the-Sea) and new destinations (Narni, Arcidosso, Genoa, Padua). We take this opportunity to deeply thank those who have supported us in these months with their solidarity, resonance and friendship.

The online course of soul retrieval and multidimensional recapitulation is, I believe, a unique opportunity to have a deep, direct experience of what you have never dared to investigate about who and where you really are. It is a course that I believe cannot be repeated, so if you intend to participate, you are welcome, while it lasts.

In the first session we outlined a simple three-step recovery scheme, which was then explored in more detail.

Three-Step Soul Retrieval:

The first step in retrieving parts of your soul is deciding to retrieve them once you realize you have lost them.

The second step is to leave a reserved space in your consciousness so that when you retrieve them they can find their place.

The third step involves guarding those reserved spaces, placing a no-parking sign and preventing access by unauthorized entities.

The work is not so much about retrieving parts of the soul, but about leaving a free space for them. Soul parts leave at a certain point if they do not find a place to park.

The course, which started on May 30, 2024, lasts one entire solar cycle and consists of three 90-minute online sessions (live or on podcast) every thirty days corresponding to the solar transit in each zodiac sign. You can join the course at any time of the year.

The Astroshamanic Binary Tarot, besides being one of the least known deck in the world, is also one of the most multidimensional and out of the ordinary. I believe there are no more than seven individuals that know how to use it, amongst them two of my dearest friends in Germany.

The astroshamanic binary system, upon which the deck is based, constitutes the underlying strategic foundation of astroshamanic cosmology. The cards, far from being employed for divination purposes, are used for multidimensional, shamanic journeys, direct communication with parallel worlds and for further amazing aims, which it would be too complicated to explain. Yet, beware, the most complex feature of these cards is paradoxically their simplicity. The cards speak directly to your most authentic and original self, in a most straightforward way...

I Tarocchi Binari Astrosciamanici, oltre a essere uno dei mazzi meno conosciuti al mondo, è anche uno dei più multidimensionali e fuori dall'ordinario. Credo che non ci siano più di sette persone che sanno come usarlo, tra cui due carissimi amici in Germania.

Il sistema binario astrosciamanico, su cui si basa questo mazzo di carte, costituisce il fondamento strategico sottostante della cosmologia astrosciamanica. Le carte, lungi dall'essere impiegate per scopi divinatori, vengono utilizzate per viaggi multidimensionali e sciamanici, per comunicazioni dirette con mondi paralleli e per ulteriori scopi sorprendenti, che sarebbe troppo complicato spiegare. Ma attenzione, la caratteristica più complessa di queste carte è paradossalmente la loro semplicità. Le carte parlano direttamente al tuo sé più autentico e originale, nel modo più diretto possibile...

Following the recent decision of the FIndhorn Foundation to sell Cluny Hill, former Cluny Hill College, a huge Victorian building, which held most of the programmes of the Findhorn Foundation in northern Scotland, so as to give an idea of the pragmatic size of the building I'm sharing the planimetry of all its floors.

The maps, created between 1999 and 2009 are encompassed within an astrological framework, depicting the astroshamanic healing grid. The Grid was used in thousands of events and workshops from 1999 to 2019.

The Grid is part of a vast holistic project involving the creation and maintenance of a geomantic healing network encompassing the whole planet through progressive duodecimal subdivisions based on the combinations of the astrological signs. In simpler terms, the aim is to set each geographical area of our planet, large or small, in alignment with such combinations with the purpose of creating healing multidimensional connections.

Whatever the fate of Cluny Hill the Grid will not be affected!

The boundaries of the Grid were first created underground (lower world), with the burying of healing stones, then through the blessing of 12 big trees (higher world). It was kept unmarked with no explicit signs until 24 April 2010, when 12 posts indicating the number, glyph and astroshamanic healing seal for each sector were places.

The markers were created by the artist Richard Brockbank and activated by the 12 participants of the workshop “Being with the Spirit of Cluny Garden” held by Sverre Koxvold and Franco Santoro.

Sun in Pisces and Moon in Scorpio, between the end of February and the beginning of March, are in trine aspect and in an easy, balanced and mutually supportive connection. This combination is associated with the depth of the ocean and in analogy to our most occult and vital emotions. This is particularly useful when it comes to making decisive decisions, which confront you with the totality of existence and above all with what is removed from ordinary human consciousness.
“In the midst of our lives, our freedom and our struggles,” writes theologian Karl Rahner, born with Sun in Pisces and Moon in Scorpio, “we must make a radical and absolute decision. And we never know when lightning will strike us out of nowhere. It may be when we least expect to be asked if we have the absolute faith and confidence to say yes.”
Our 90-minute audio on the Sun in Pisces and Moon in Scorpio combination has been released in podcast format, accessible to members of the association. For information [email protected]

Sono passati più di 20 anni dall'uscita del secondo volume di "Astroshamanism", diffuso globalmente in molte librerie, specialmente quelle di antiquariato (come questa in Finlandia). L'astrosciamanesimo è tuttavia oltre il tempo, per cui rimane attualissimo nel presente e soprattutto nel futuro.

Binary 11.1 (Aquarius-Aries) has been released in podcast format, corresponding in the linear time of this year to the period between 2.26pm on 12 February to 4.02pm on 14 February 2024. This podcast is accessible to members of the association or to supporters. To obtain the link and for information please contact [email protected] This binary integrates the inventiveness and innovation of Aquarius with the initiative, immediacy and combative energy of Aries. 11.1 dispenses liveliness, intelligence, courage and a sense of adventure, together with a humanitarian spirit applied in an often rebellious and original way. The intellectual freedom of Aquarius and the independent pioneering drive of Aries stimulate firmness, assertiveness and intransigence, with the tendency to launch into events regardless of the interference presented on the path. The relevant theme is that of the priorities of existence, in particular three types of priorities, together with the identification of what is false in this world (practically everything), the search for truth, and the initiative to achieve freedom, which lies in participation, taking up the words "freedom is participation" and going further.

Astrology & Shamanism

In ancient times the starry firmament was the major setting for wisdom, guidance and information, the equivalent of libraries, cinema, internet or television. It provided data concerning every aspect of existence, from the most mundane to the most sacred.

This is why astrology is considered the oldest source of information, preceding any other method used by mankind to attain knowledge. This does not mean that astrology per se provides knowledge. Similarly to the internet, it merely offers a structure, which can either be used to promote wisdom or ignorance, reality or illusion. This also applies to astroshamanism, the experiential application of astrology and the most ancient operative attitude to pursue knowledge.

Astrology offers maps, while shamanism uses them experientially. Astrology and shamanism can promote wisdom or ignorance, light or darkness, depending on whether the intent of the seeker is based on separation or unity, fear or love.

As a result, throughout history, astrology and shamanism have been used in most controversial ways. This is also the case for all religious and spiritual paths, philosophies and thought systems, modern and ancient, all originally stemming from astrology and shamanism, i.e. astroshamanism.

Astroshamanism is a way of acknowledging both the voyager and the map, and yet the way in which the map is used depends on the voyager and it is unrelated to the map itself.

Multidimensional Astrology: consultations

According to Multidimensional Astrology we simultaneously exist in many dimensions and parallel realities. The world we live in is just one of those realities, yet since it is a separate reality our consciousness is limited and we believe to exist only here. All human pain and misery is due to this separation, and the incapacity to be aware of who we truly are. Multidimensional Astrology is an astrological application of Astroshamanism. Its aim is to help us understand who and where we are from an expanded perspective, and what our purpose and function is in this reality. Our consultations and workshops offer a complete exploration of the astrological chart based on your current life cycles and intentions in this and other realities. The aim is to support the alignment with your life purpose, tapping into the inner knowledge of your being, acknowledging strengths, gifts, connecting with other empowering realities and finding effective ways to deal with the challenges and grievances you meet in everyday life. Multidimensional Astrology is both experiential and theoretical, empowering and supporting the client’s intention, focusing on self-knowledge, life potentials, purposes and directions.

Encountering Astroshamanism by Franco Santoro
(New Statesman)

Published on New Statesman, 11 March 2008, see: https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/2008/03/astroshamanism-direct

The first of two pieces on astroshamanism, a type of shamanism related to astrology.

By Franco Santoro

I often like to see this world as a place where we come to find out who we are. We continue to come until we are willing to accept and release what we assume to be and who we truly are. To be alive, without knowing who I am, is a bit like being dead, since living involves being aware of whom is indeed living.

Ignorance and denial about who I am does not change the nature of my true identity, but it does split the mind into two parts – one that knows the truth and the other that does not know or denies it. And it is this split that astroshamanism, along with many other paths, is drawn to address and cure.

Astroshamanism identifies a form of spiritual healing based on the integration of shamanism with sacred astrology, ancient mystery teachings and more traditional religious paths. Astroshamanism is merely a term that allows me to classify this work, yet what counts is its content.

Central in this work is the ongoing release of conditioned ideas regarding who we believe ourselves to be. This release gives access to an area of unknowing, where we can unveil a direct experience of our nature. Most shamans and seekers concur that this process involves letting go of our perception of the separated self. This separation appears to be the ultimate cause of human sufferance, so we support the reawakening of our original united self, which many religious cultures describe as God.

For many people the term “God” has lost interest and in some cases it even produces strong resistance. In certain situations it is awkward to mention “God,” since this can easily give wrong impressions and cause prejudices. This is probably because some concepts of God trigger fear, guilt, and judgment. “God” is merely a term, which can take other names and forms, and even no name or form at all. What counts here is the direct experience of God, and of our true nature devoid of any assumption.

I believe that what most people on a spiritual quest seek today are not mere formalities, doctrines or creeds, but paths of direct experience. They search for a first-hand knowledge of their true self, or a direct encounter and communion with God. This is what shamanic work can offer and it is also the authentic essence of what most spiritual traditions pursue.
