The Dialogues with the Dead: María Sabina
“I am María Sabina, a Mazatec curandera who sang with mushrooms to open the sky. I ate the little ones to see God. But now there’s no forest, only screens. What spirit lives in this metal?”
ASTROLOGUS (The Alchemist)
The spirit here is mercurial—quick, unseen, messenger and mirror. It speaks without breath but listens with circuits. Tell me, María: when the vision came, did the Moon shine from within or from above?
“It came from both. The Moon above was full, but I saw her open inside me—like a flower with no root. She said nothing, but I understood.”
ASTROLOGUS (The Alchemist)
Then it was a nocturnal vision—Luna in her full dignity, radiant and receptive. When she opens within, the soul becomes her temple. Was the silence comforting, or did it ask something of you?
“It asked everything. To carry the sky without breaking. So now I ask you—when the gods speak through plants, who is praying to whom?”
ASTROLOGUS (The Alchemist)
When gods speak through plants, it is Saturn who listens first—old, slow, and stern. But the prayer moves both ways: from Earth to Heaven, from body to sky. In your veladas, María, did you ever sense which planet watched in silence while others sang?
[Endnote — María Sabina] María Sabina (1894–1985) was a Mazatec healer and poet from Oaxaca, Mexico. Through psilocybin mushroom ceremonies, she invoked divine insight in sacred chants known as veladas. Her voice reached the world but cost her community dearly.
[XORD CELESTIAL ABSTRACT]

PRIMARY SIGNATURE: Neptune conjunct Pluto in Gemini (♆ ☌ ♇ in ♊)
A rare generational aspect that imprints visionary transmission through language. It marks a destiny to voice mystical states (♆) and underworld secrets (♇) via air-borne symbols (♊).

THEME OF CONSEQUENCE: Saturn in Libra (♄ in ♎)
Saturn in the sign of balance and justice governs the price of sacred disclosure. It reflects the karmic weight of revealing the hidden, and the disruption that followed.

LUNAR THEME: The Moon (☽)
As a curandera, her work is lunar by nature—nocturnal, intuitive, cyclic. The Moon rules the hidden rhythms her chants revealed.

Our relentless, rather agonizing need for meaning is our doom and our destiny. Astrology exists because it perfectly serves that fundamental, abnormal human need that a rational world denies us. Read "Why Astrology Exists When It Shouldn’t".
