Beyond the Soul’s Meridian September 18, 2025
Castle marks the energies of this fall season. The castle is always a part of the autumn season but this year we are called to remember its significance. Within the cycles of the year, there is a seasonal battle that occurs at the peak of the fall period, signified by All Hallow’s Eve, All Saints’ Day, and All Souls’ Day. As we plunge deeper into the shadows the light in the Northern hemisphere grows dim and the darkness comes home to rule.
Building castles in the air suggests a flight of ideas that are not grounded to reality. My intuition suggests that this is exactly what this fall has in store for us. There will literally be a flight of ideas that will be ungrounded to anything tangible. Use your imagination. Whatever the media is telling us is only useful to them. If there is truth to the narrative, it is only intended to serve a deceptive agenda.
While there is very little in the media about the usurpation of our country by a foreign nation, there has been much in the mainstream and alternative media about a celestial body that is making its way through the solar system. Even in the fringe media, which is inspired by channeled and otherworldly sources, the narrative being conveyed is committed to some form of galactic revelation by the end of October. This is not the first time that an Apocalypse (Great Revealing) has been predicted. Yet, it is interesting that so many sources are converging on the same topic, which at this point is only a phantom to virtually all of us.
Nothing within the landscape of an electronic format is reliable, as all its content is subject to manipulation. Furthermore, there may be distortions within the celestial bodies that we are observing, which can be affected by holographic manipulation, or may just be purely holographic. It will take all our seven senses to navigate through the lies that lay ahead of us during this time.
Understand that all of it is related. The assassinations, political unrest, and an otherworldly body flying (allegedly) around the solar system seem to be part of a perpetual Shadow narrative that is vying for control over humanity. This has always been done through deception and the suppression of common sense.
Henry David Thoreau was a great teacher of natural wisdom. Within his observations of Nature, he could sense the spiritual forces behind the physical manifestations that are observed within the machinations of earthly existence. Thoreau was a transcendentalist who could sense the goodness in mankind. This goodness is directly related to the forces of Unity consciousness which is embedded within everything that is alive. It is a connection principle. We experience Unity consciousness when we experience love, for they are one and the same. There is even love in the shadow, that is, if we are brave enough to find it. We buried that love just so that we could re-discover it. The time to find it is now.
We are at peak resonance when we can understand truth independently. It is a critical form of self-reliance that is most cherished and essential for these times. Unity consciousness connects us to the omniscience of our higher self, or what an enlightened person would unabashedly call “God.”
It is the institutions that surround us, which have usurped themselves within all aspects of our life, which have ultimately corrupted the purity of our independence. When we are in Unity consciousness, we are closest to the spirit which unifies a myriad of independent souls that converge upon the Logoic resonances of Nature in sympathy to the Light and Love of Truth. This level of truth is beyond deceit and can only be determined independently within the state of Unity consciousness.
Thoreau was wise enough to know that castles can only come from the sky. To build such a structure you must not only have grand dreams, but your foundation, which is anchored in freedom, courage, sincerity, and truth, is strong enough to support it. In the case of this fall season, the Castle is bestowed upon us, which means that it belongs only to those who are sovereign unto themselves.
The Astrology of the Fall 2025

This year’s Autumnal Equinox occurs at 1:19 pm on September 22, 2025, Central Standard Time. It is preceded by a minor solar eclipse on September 21, 2025. There are many aspects to this astrological event, but the overall grand theme is the formation of a Castle. The Castle is noted as a symbol of the Seer when found on a natal chart. Technically, there are three castles that are comprised of two Grand Trines and three Righteous Rectangles. The number three is significant in the sense that what is happening is Thrice Great, magnifying the significance of the event and signifying its spiritual importance.
Discerning all the elemental aspects of the Castle are not as important as it is to understand that those who have been prepared are inheriting it. It has been bequeathed to you if you are willing to accept it. Daryl Anka (the channeler of Bashar) stated that the meaning of wealth and abundance in the higher realms is defined as having everything that you need exactly when you need it. We can look at the details of what we are given, somewhat like a gift horse’s mouth, but rest assured, it is exactly what we need. What the spirit gives us is always a process of faith in the Truth of our Higher Self.
The Castle is a bastion, which in this case is constructed out of Love and Truth. It is a sanctuary that is personal and collective. In a previous life, as a member of the Church of Love within the Cathar community, I possessed a Castle. The vision came to me in the late fall as I saw how our community celebrated the cycles of the season within the boundaries of the Castle. These communities were inclusive. This means you could have been an Albigensian, Waldensian, Catholic, or no specific affiliation, and would have still been welcomed if you were aligned in love and service to humanity.
The Castle belongs to all of us, but it is truly yours. I have never felt more at peace or connected to Mother Earth and her people in any lifetime since the times of Atlantis. The Castle draws its power from Gaia and the wisdom that her children carry within them. That is, those souls who are sired in Truth, and who live in service to our Divine Sophia.

One of the most interesting features of the Castle is that it is anchored on an opposition with Sun at the cusp of Libra (at 29 degrees Virgo) conjunct Mercury (7 degrees Libra) opposite Saturn (28 degrees Pisces) conjunct Neptune (0 degrees Aries). It is the Saturn-Neptune conjunction that suggests literally a castle in the sky which has the potential to manifest through the grounding structure, discipline, and responsibility of Saturn in Pisces, which is reciprocated by Neptune positioned in Aries. The Sun-Mercury in Libra opposite Saturn-Neptune illuminates and activates the process, which will be of great healing and unification where clarity and understanding will prevail
The second opposition of the Castle involved Uranus (1 degree Gemini) opposite Vesta-Juno conjunction (3 degrees Sagittarius and 27 degrees Scorpio) which should act as a unifying principle through revolutionary transformation. Juno presides over marriages and unions, while Vesta the home, hearth, vitality, family, self-sacrifice, dedication, and executive branch of good governance. Juno in the Scorpion suggests transfiguration through sacred union.
Uranus and the Sun-Mercury are connected to Pluto in Aquarius forming a Grand Trine, completing the Castle formation. From this vantage we can see through all the deception that is hurled at us. In truth, we will also be shielded against the fear and violence that the archons deploy. That is within the community of Love within the Citadel in Unity consciousness that has once again risen.
Final thoughts
The ruined castles of the Albigensians have become one of their most well-known symbols that marked their prosperous, generous, and successful communities of love and tolerance. For many, we could say that the area of Languedoc in Southern France (where most of these communities existed) is the cradle of our civilization.
Why would I say this?
It is in this area of the Pyrenees in Southern France where the cave painting of Cro-Magnon humans exists. They were not the first humans to have existed on this planet, but they are a direct lineage to the Celtic culture of today.
The Celts existed throughout Europe and North Africa. They are a culture that honors Nature and specifically the Holy Mother. The Cathars were very much a culture that was directly influenced by the ancient natural wisdom of the Celts. What made them so threatening to the Roman Catholic Church was their independent holistic understanding, making them Gnostics or knowers of Greater Truth. They integrated the Divine Holy Mother Sophia and the Logos of the Christos within themselves, embracing their entire community within the Love and Light of the Truth that they came to know through direct experience.
No Albigensian was ever converted because once a person comes to Gnosis, they can never turn back. Many died a violent death, but all of them knew that they were only transitioning out of a dark illusion that was riddled with deceit and misaligned to the truth. They also knew that (like Christ) it was not yet their time. The violence that they were living through was part of a grand plan within their soul’s contract. (see Beyond the Soul’s Meridian, The Third Incursion, February 5, 2023).
It is said that the last Cathar adept (Parfait, meaning perfect) to have been executed was Guillaume Belibaste. He was burned at the stake on the morning of August 21, 1321. His last words were prophetic, stating with his dying breath, “In 700 years, the Laurel will become green again upon the ashes of the martyrs.”
The prophecy brings us to 2021. As many have been observing, the Age of Aquarius was heralded at the Grand Conjunction of Saturn-Jupiter on the Winter Solstice of December 2020. (See Beyond the Soul’s Meridian, Transcending into the New Age: The Grand Conjunction of the Great Winter Solstice, December 1, 2020). Since that event, there have been echoes and synchronicities within the astrology that have reiterated and expounded upon the fact that the Laurel is indeed becoming green for those who can read the signs.
The Laurel (Sweet Bay) is a symbol of high enlightenment and is directly related to the Daphne, a Priestess of Gaia (known as a Pythia). The god Apollo fell in love with her, but she had no interest in becoming his mistress. Pleading with Mother Gaia, Daphne was transformed into a Laurel tree. Apollo fashioned a wreath to console himself. I see this story as a time when the Divine Feminine and Masculine energies became even further separated.
The Laurel wreath became the symbol of highest achievement in ancient Greece. It was given as a prize to winners of the Pythian games, which were in honor of Apollo, who among many things was our ancient mentor of healing, the arts, and higher knowledge.
It is within the Aquarian Age when timeless wisdom returns to the world, radiating from the pearls of truth cast forth from enlightened Gnostic souls. These people are the ones who have traversed linear time through trials and tribulations that were aimed specifically at them. All were persecuted for the inner truth that they discovered within themselves. There is no other way to acquire such wisdom.
Mary Magdalene was the vessel of the goddess Sophia, who is known as the “Mother of All Dragons.” Python (who was a Drakaina = feminine dragon) was Gaia’s dragon, and therefore the world’s dragon. When Apollo slayed her, it was viewed by the entire pantheon as a great tragedy. Apollo never recovered from the incident which again drove a wedge between the masculine and feminine polarities.
Time has healed the wound. Meaning, when we are wise enough to unify those principles of conflict within ourselves, we heal Gaia, harnessing the powers of the Great Drakaina in union with the Logoic Love and Light of Truth.
This is what the archons fear the most, which is when we rise within the truth of our greatness in Unity consciousness.
There is a second Cathar prophecy whose source (I imagine) is from the troubadours. In it, it states that wisdom once again rises when the “conditions” of truth sink below our enlighten state of knowing. This is truly the fall of the Piscean Age and rise of the Aquarian spirit in seership.
This becomes the point when we are living in the Truth of Love, which is the foundation of the new Castle that we are all destined to keep.
In Good Faith,
Peace.

“The Cathar prophecy refers to 2 different episodes. One refers to the words spoken in the 4 directions by Bélibaste, the last Cathar burned at the stake by the mercenaries of the Church of Rome, just before his execution at Termenès: “Al cap dels sèt cent ans, verdejera lo laurel” – which means that 700 years from that moment the laurier would become green again (a reflourishing of the Cathar faith or rebirth of the church of love) – which calculates to October 2021.
The second mention of a prophecy references a text that would have been passed on from generation to generation, a prophecy about the rebirth of a church of love in a distant future. Below I share the text in full, a vision of a church of the new world:
This church has no fabric – only understanding.
It has no membership – save those who know they belong.
It has no rivals – because it is non-competitive.
It has no ambition, because it only seeks to serve.
It knows of no boundaries for nationalisms are unloving.
It is not of itself because it seeks to enrich all groups and religions.
It acknowledges all great teachers of all the ages who have shown the truth of Love.
Those who participate practice the Truth of Love in all their daily being.
There is no walk of life or nationality that is a barrier.
Those who are, know. It seeks not to teach but to be, and by being, enrich.
It recognizes the collectivity of all humanity and that we are all one with the One.
It recognizes that the way we are may be the way of those around us because we are that way.
It recognizes the whole planet as a Being, of which we are a part.
It recognizes that the time has come for the supreme transmutation, the ultimate alchemical act, the conscious change of the ego into a voluntary return to the whole.
It does not proclaim itself with a loud voice but in the subtle realms of loving.
It salutes all those in the past who have blazoned the path but paid the price.
It admits of no hierarchy or structure, for no one is greater than another.
Its members shall know each other by their deeds and being and their eyes and by no other outward sign, save the fraternal embrace.
Each one will dedicate his or her life to the silent loving of their neighbour and environment and the planet, whilst carrying out their daily task, however exalted or humble.
It recognizes the supremacy of the great idea which may only be accomplished if the human race practices the supremacy of Love.
It has no rewards to offer, either here or in the hereafter, save that of the ineffable joy of being and loving.
Its members shall seek only to advance the cause of understanding, within whichever church, group or family they happen to be.
They shall do good by stealth and teach only by example.
They shall heal their neighbor, their community and our Planet.
They shall know no fear, and feel no shame, and their witness shall prevail over all odds.
It has no secrets, no arcanum, no initiations save that of the true understanding of the power of love and that, if we want it to be so, the world will change but only if we change ourselves first.
All those who belong, belong, that is the church of love.“
