Fascinating experience, beautifully conveyed. Thank you for sharing.

As an astrologer I am sure you know already, but I am so struck by your age at the time of each experience coinciding with the first two progressed lunar returns. I will look forward to reading the next installment to see what your take on it is.

With love and blessings - Silvianne

Thank you @Silvianne K Delmars, what a beautiful observation — and no, I hadn't connected it to the progressed lunar returns, so this is a genuinely new layer for me to explore.

The number 27 has been appearing throughout my story in so many forms — Saturn at 27 degrees as the apex of my Yod, the vision at age 27, the confirmation at 54 which is twice 27. My exploration of 27 had been heading in the direction of fractal geometry — the triangle is considered the smallest building block of reality, used even in the construction of gaming worlds, and 27 smaller fractal triangles fit precisely within the whole. I had been sitting with that as one possible key.

But I hadn't placed the 27 within the progressed lunar cycle — and now that you've named it, I can see it's the same underlying rhythm expressing through multiple languages simultaneously. Geometry, astrology, lived experience. All pointing to the same pulse.

I will be exploring the progressed lunar return thread further — thank you for the gift of that insight. It's exactly the kind of exchange I was hoping these pieces would invite.

With gratitude, Julie

Oh, so happy to hear the observation resonated with you! Sorry I am just seeing this reply now -- still getting up to speed with Substack, apparently, and learning how to track better.

Actually, I found it because I just read your latest piece. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your writing -- both the subject matter and your skill with language and story-telling. It is truly inspiring.

I, too, have a life-long resonance with the Arthurian stories. And reading Mists of Avalon in my 30s was life-changing. Like you, I have returned to it many times -- although parts are still so hard to read, I am often tempted to just skip over them (when they take that baby away from Morgaine... but I digress).

I was just playing with asteroids last night in the new, amazing version of the Galactic Astrology chart calculator. Absolutely cannot wait to go back and put in the Arthurian asteroids (didn't know there was such a thing -- except for Merlin, of course) to see what may be revealed about my own soul journey.

Please keep writing and sharing. It means a lot. To others, I'm sure, as well as me.
