Age of AqueeriusAll About TransformationIn honour of the Full Moon in Scorpio on 4/23, this is an episode about transformation. I've been under the weather so it's a bit shorter and more of a primer, covering breadth rather than depth. I talk about transformation, decolonisation, and how critical reflections is a way of systematising transformation and community building in a decolonial way.

Age of AqueeriusSettler colonialism organises identity through dominance and controlIn this episode, I talk about how the episodes I've created already are interrelated and connected together, and how they connect to decolonisation and collective liberation. I talk about marginalisations and privileges and their relationship to colonialism and decolonisation, as well as different ways we can hold our marginalisations and privileges so that we can engage in anti-oppression work without being activated or personalising critiques on privileges. I talk about the art of transformation, the liminal spaces, and end with a reflection on Pisces and Aries energy, and the equal importance of light and dark in transformation.
