Sexuality, Holistic Awareness and Shamanism:All You Wanted to Know About How to Do It Multidimensionally, But Didn’t Dare to Ask For ages on our planet conflicts around sex issues have been a major cause of sufferance, addiction and frustration. As we move into a path of rapid spiritual reawakening it is vital to acknowledge these wounds and strenuously promote ways to heal them.
Holistic Awareness is based on the experience that all aspects of life are intimately related and part of the same whole. According to a holistic perspective there is no separation and we can find our sense of purpose only if we acknowledge the wider reality in which we exist. This reality also includes what lies beyond our ordinary perception and can effectively deepen the awareness of who we truly are; our multidimensional identity.
Holistically each human being, no matter how conditioned or unaware, is an inherent part of the web of life. This means that together with their separated personality, they experience the interaction with a multidimensional identity, which is their true self.
When more individuals join together with the intent of giving creative space to their multidimensional nature, they amplify the access to the web of life and the unity of consciousness, creating the conditions for radical healing shifts in human values.

Foundation Training in Astroshamanism(26 February – 13 March 2011)I would like to invite you to join the ninth edition of the Findhorn Foundation Training in Astroshamanism, in Cluny Hill College (Scotland), which this year can also be expanded in the Month-long Astroshamanic Training (see below) Read on…Full Moon in Leo – 18 February 2011 By Franco Santoro
Full Moon in Leo: This is traditionally a most visionary and theatrical Full Moon, the radiant bearer of spectacular breakthrough and inventive ideas.
The Full Moon is exact on 18 February 2011 at 8:35 GMT in 29° Leo 20’, so that the previous night will express most of its potential. The effects, as for all full moons, will begin two days before and end two days after.
The two days preceding a full moon can challenge the perspective of ordinary reality and are ideal to release pent-up emotions and excess energies. The function here is to bring balance between the areas where the Sun and the Moon are. With the Aquarius-Leo axis, the integration is between group and individual consciousness.
During a Full Moon the sexual energy reaches its climax, making the whole body a vast erogenous zone eager to express and act out. This is one of the reasons why the Full Moon has always been regarded as the best time for dynamic group rituals and trance dances.
Pisces - Astroshamanic Voyage into the Zodiac
By Franco Santoro
 Within the cycle of the year, Pisces is crucial for it represents the culmination of the gestation of any intent or process set in motion in the preceding months, as from the spring equinox in 2010.
It is a very delicate period, in which new talents and gifts take solid shape and prepare for their outer emergence, yet in a context where we may still be unable to acknowledge and see what is actually emerging.
This requires focus, care and alertness so as to embrace the opportunity of giving fruitful conscious birth to what truly aligns with our authentic potential, including the current planetary transformational shift. Each one of us is dealing with a specific element in this wider process of delivery. Here I want to underline that these elements gain considerable clarity, perspective and definition when they move from our personal limbo out into the collective. We can become truly aware of our emerging gifts and talents when we allow them to be visible and acknowledgeable by others, instead of breeding them in isolation.
 Among the numerous applications of astroshamanic work, AstroshamanicHealing®Touch & Primal Embrace are some of the most controversial and captivating. This is because they straightforwardly challenge our human perception of physical reality, delving into its unseen matrix and retrieving the awareness of the amazing realms that abide beyond.
AstroshamanicHealing®Touch is a unique way for understanding and working with the boundaries between ordinary and non-ordinary reality, moving beyond separation and uncovering the links with the ecstatic nature of the web of life. It is an extraordinary multidimensional approach to spiritual healing bodywork, woven from the wisdom of ancient traditions and more recent paths of liberation.
AstroshamanicHealing®Touch utilises the dynamics of shamanic trance to create deep energetic states of harmony in the body, soul and spirit. Through the sensitive and empowering use of ritual strokes, contact and postures, operated according to clear boundaries and in alignment with the planetary rhythms, this approach works on the multidimensional sexual body, reawakening the remembrance of our original nature and purpose.
An Astroshamanic Voyage into the Tarot
By Franco Santoro
 The Moon is the eighteenth trump of the Major Arcana, which in most traditional decks is associated with Pisces. In the Rider Waite Tarot the card depicts a dog and a wolf baying at the Moon, while a crayfish emerges out of the water and takes its first step on a pathway leading beyond a large gateway of two towers. The landscape is dark and gloomy, with a waxing and rather frowning Moon shining with sixteen chief rays and sixteen secondary rays, and shedding drops of luminous dew.
In the The Pictorial Key to the Tarot, A.E. Waite describes the Moon as the representation of life of the imagination apart from life of the spirit. The setting looks desolate and obscure, illuminated only by the light of the Moon, which is the result of a reflection and therefore illusory and easily misleading.
This light illuminates and triggers our animal and unconscious nature, the lunatic (from the Latin luna, “Moon”) side, represented by the dog, the wolf and, as Waite puts it, “that which comes up out of the deeps, the nameless and hideous tendency which is even lower than the savage beast. It strives to attain manifestation, symbolized by crawling from the abyss of water to the land, but as a rule it sinks back whence it came.”
Despite this noticeable anguish, the Moon is a zone of major power and a great learning path, if one is not swept away by the intense emotional turmoil that this trump can potentially manifest. This is an area where the structure of the ordinary world and all the illusions that characterise this separated reality simply crush and melt away. Yet the alternatives may be insanity, addiction, despair and the most dramatic forms of psychic disturbance, unless the individual is firmly grounded on the healing path.

Healing Relationships – Part One:
by Franco Santoro
 When approaching the theme of relationships from a spiritual and multidimensional perspective a most relevant question is:
Who and what is truly relating in a relationship?
If, as most spiritual seekers appear to concur, we are not physical bodies, then a relationship between two human beings, no matter how it comes into sight for us, has very little to do with the interactions between two physical bodies.
Relationships are not about meeting particular persons, as we identify them by their physical body, name, role and outer behaviour.
