Hubris
"You’re familiar with the idea of hubris, yes? It’s that amplified blend
of blind, stubborn ego and overreaching that spelled the tragic downfall
of many a character in the myths and dramas of Greek antiquity."

Sensing GC
"The Sun ingresses Cancer at 12:38 pm EDT Sunday (16:38 UTC). From now through then, Mars in late Gemini will be in opposition to the center of our Milky Way galaxy. (Mars opposite Galactic Core is exact Saturday.)
You can think of the Galactic Core (GC) as the ‘spiritual homing signal’ in astrology. It is vast, and it speaks of a deeper and wider perspective on existence; one Eric Francis described earlier this week as 'not normally available while staring at a row of buildings or gas pumps.' The energy of the GC can be difficult to pin down and identify, compared to something like Mars or the Moon.
If you’ve ever had that feeling like something you’ve encountered really means something profound but you’re not sure just what, or like you are part of something larger and more loving than you could ever articulate, that’s how I sometimes think of it.
There are a few ways you could interpret Mars opposite the GC on the solstice. One that feels particularly relevant is: try orienting your desires on what really matters this season. If you feel like you’re of two minds regarding what that is, try to step back and look at the big picture. As in, the really big picture: what feeds your soul in the simplest, most nourishing and nurturing ways — rather than what fills your social calendar, or what everyone else just has to do this summer."

Fear of Change
from Fe Bongolan's Shock Value
"It all boils down to that, doesn’t it? Folks are afraid, and they will react not only in fear of someone taking away their guns, but of women and same sexes freely having sex. It’s in every anti-gay, and anti-abortion initiative since the 1980s: fear of change itself.
We’re still anxious over the breakdown of the way things were; the loosening of the traditional family structure; the fear of people different from you. There is fear that you might not be in the majority — in control, in the right — anymore. And that can make you feel unsafe and willing by any means necessary to bring it all down. But that unsettling feeling is settling in on them — their majority is at its twilight, and all they can do is slow things down."

... What if you fly?
From a poem by Erin Hanson,
Reverie (The Poetic Underground #1)
“There is freedom waiting for you,
On the breezes of the sky,
And you ask "What if I fall?"
Oh but my darling,
What if you fly?”
