Listen to the Introduction

Join author, astrologer, and teacher, Kathy Newburn in a rich and meaningful exploration of the evolution of the Soul through the astrological signs.

The Cave of Hercules


The Labors of Hercules provides us with beautiful insight into the multi-incarnational journey of the awakened soul through the astrological signs. As we deepen our understanding of the rich and profound symbolism provided in each myth, we better understand how each labor provides us with insight into the task. Through each task we can understand our nature and the movement toward liberation of the soul.

Aries

Listen to the Myth

The Capture of the Man-Eating Mares

The first Herculean labor marks the first step upon the “path of translation’.  In Aries we begin to re-orient our consciousness. We begin to shift from living purely a form life to that of a life of consciousness and spiritual being.

Aries carries an urge for new beginning, creation, and resurrection. In Aries we can be focused on living purely in form, expressing an energy of life around ‘Let form be sought’. The higher calling for those on the spiritual path  ‘I come forth and from the plane of mind, I rule.” The higher Aries begins striving toward freedom from form.

The energies of the sign of Aries is strong. Aries is not afraid of challenge or the battle. Hercules, as the representative of the soul, begins his journey through the astrological with a bold fearlessness that is typical of Aries. The mares represent the destructive power of an undisciplined and wild mind. Abderis symbolizes the personality nature.
