Recently, while watching the Olympics opening ceremony, I noticed how much I enjoy doing something that connects me with other people in that same moment. For the opening ceremony there were an estimated 1 billion people tuning in to the same event at the same time, it was a global moment. This is the idea of synchronicity, it is the idea of meeting in time. It is a green theme.

Through history the idea that you had to be there to share the moment is fundamental. Had i turned the TV on that evening i would not have been able to see the opening ceremony unfold - i would not have been sharing it in real time with other people. I would not have been in synchronicity with the event.

In our modern world i am noticing a new way of relating to the world emerge. New technology is making it easier and easier to access events in your own time, when you want to.  First with specialist internet services - downloading films rather than renting them from the shop, and now increasingly these services are entering the public mainstream. Podcasts and downloads from the radio are increasingly common, and in the UK this year, the BBC has launched iPlayer which allows people to watch any tv programme from the last 7 days according to their own schedule - in their own time.

This is the fact, we are moving to a new way of relating to the world - the way of “in our own time”. New technology is making this possible. New technology is connected to Turquoise, as are also themes of individuation - being true to our individuality. The growing freedom to make our own choices, to experience life as we choose.  This trend has a downside, it fragments us socially (turquoise is opposite to coral - the energy of the collective), how easy is it to talk to someone in public if they are listening to their music on their headphones?

This growing turquoise reality of living in our own time is taking energy away from the significance of our shared experiences in the “real time” of green. Einstein’s work on relativity showed the way for this new paradigm, he realised that time is relative, relative to our position and movement through space. We are becoming a community of fragmented individual points of consciousness, each with increasing freedom to live in our own time.

There are so many ways to continue this theme from here

Aquarius and Leo - freedom and the shadow of central power

Changing work and study patterns - the disintegration of the family

The Aura-Soma original Tarot image of B85 The Chariot - Pegasus taking off from the earth. Very fitting to the themes of this idea. Under the sphere of Saturn, return journey of Yellow / Green.

From the Green / Red earthbound axis of the Colour Rose to the Turquoise / Coral axis which frees us from the earth, just as the internet circles the earth, information / energy flowing around it.
