Some of the topics Indra Rinzler and I address:
- Who is Indra Rinzler, what he does and how he helps people
- What is “self”/”Self”
- (my unique laugh)
- “So I’ve heard” and “Thus I’ve heard”
- “positionality”
- clinging to beliefs, views and ideas
- insights, letting go, emptiness
- changes
- live as a mirror and Indra’s net
- triggers
- expansion
- formlessness
Vedic Astrology
- http://www.indrarinzler.com/astrology.html
- “same same and different”
- satiereal vs. tropical time
- 24 degrees backwards
- how Western and Vedic Astrology were once very similar and currently not as much
- (my) experiences with astrology and (loose) parallels to learning math and navigating megalopolises
- casting charts for time periods and places
- origins and history
- Mesopotamian tablets
- omenology by the priest class and advisors regressing over time
- dumbing down of society
- Copernicus, Galileo, Potalamy
- Greek 59 epicenters to explain how the sun circles the earth
- popularity of some theories over others
- Astrology to identify patterning in order to let them go
- folks going to Astrologers when at their wits end
- needing to know vs. not needing to know (the origins, or the why) for releasing, clearing, letting go [I didn’t mention that if the same thing repeatedly occurs after clearing again and again then perhaps look into the origins and why it keeps happening]
Enneagram
- http://www.indrarinzler.com/enneagram.html
- https://secretenergy.com/ennealogy
- history with Gurdjieff
- archetype/personality system added later by student
- detects core story to be able to come back to the moment
- THE sticky 9 Judeo-Christian archetypal/behavioral stories of last 2000-5000 years both visible and invisible
- The story we tell about ourselves and its importance, non-importance, solidity, malleability, becoming its script-like nature, clinging and holding it loosely
- Tarot as an archetypical system
- distilling a session down to eight words with/as an affirmation
- “I guess I gotta do it”
- entering open vibrations for information
- origin of Enneagram shrouded in mystery
- cycles of rediscovery
- “You and your cat both think ‘let’s go down and have a beer at the bar'”
- anger, emotion and fear as core instincts
- extroversion, introversion and mesoversion/ambiversion/neutral/”quality control” as responses or directions to/for incoming energy
- Three instincts times three directions = nine Enneagramic vibrational signatures:
- 1) perfectionist — anger inward making up the right way to cover for feelings of uselessness and inadequacy
- 2) helper — outward selfless appearance to create codependency as love strategy
- 3) producer — achievers (for social status)
- 4) inward emotion/individualist — sensitive, artists, expressive
- 5) observer — fear inward using information to protect feelings of inadequacy
- 6) loyalist — fear neutral with anxiety and doubt learning courage and duty using faith, not mind to get out of story
- 7) enthusiast — outward fear, lighthearted, partiers, storytellers, actually running away from feelings
- 8) boss/challenger — strongest personality with all offense to cover up teddy bear in their heart
- 9) peacemaker — neutral anger – disconnect from self to create harmony
- one’s main enneagram number uses wings, or other numbers for coping strategies
- taking on others by proximity and merging
- coming to no-story by going through your story not the story of no-story
- complexity of “Dissociative Identity Disorder” and empaths
- multiplicity of fears
- discerning fear from past traumas, past lives and this current life as priority
- nothing is personal concordant with experiential nature of our lives
- deja vu, unexplained knowing, and depth of present time
- scientific studies of past lives
Wheel of Totality

- Astrological houses containing awareness on the highest level
- example: 10th house in mundane astrology is career while the higher version is love
- houses without planets are blindspots
- overlaying natal chart onto Wheel of Totality to see qualities and abilities both present and not
- houses:
- 1) who you are
- 2) duality, judgementalism
- 3) mind
- 4) heart
- 5) God/cosmic intelligence, acceptance
- 6) practice, challenges
- 7) (discerning) conditioning
- 8) nonseperation, interconnection
- 9) emptiness
- 10) love
- 11) realization, surrender, trust, progression, ultimately no one in control
- 12) changes, transcendence, impermanence, vision
- balancing and integrating the mundane, various modalities, groundedness, practicality, and practice with stages of galactic gasses, transcendence, and awakenings
