Listen "Episode 50 - Transitioning into 2023 & Thriving - Part 2 with May Sim"
Episode Synopsis
Host Helen Lee continues her in-depth conversation with May Sim, psychological astrologer and founder of the Selfstrology Academy (Asia's top psychology astrology academy), where she has trained hundreds of international astrologers and guided thousands of clients in the last 16 years, towards using their strengths to achieve their full potential using their astrological profile.
Using her skill set, May has many interesting insights to share about the current state of the world and what our futures may hold, as we move forward in this transformative time.
In this episode, the second of a three-part interview, Helen and May talk about how people will survive and even thrive in the coming years in what is astrologically known as the Air Era, with the Earth Era having already completed two years ago. They discuss what these eras mean, the changes they will bring and how best to harness this massive opportunity to create real change for ourselves and humanity, as our values increasingly change in this new era.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
For about 250 years, we have been in the Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) during the Earth Era. The Earth Era is about tangibles, things such as production, monetary value and maximum output and efficiency. This was characterised by the Industrial Revolution.
Once people become overworked and profit becomes the guiding and only reason to strive, then materialism is failing to support, nurture and develop us as human beings, let alone being the spiritual beings we all are. The Earth era ended in 2020.
The Air Era began in the 1980's around the advent of computer technology and its rapid development. People then began to consider the future seriously.
Rather than profit and production being the driving force of the business, people, especially the next generation, are asking what companies stand for and what they accomplish for the better. We are concerned if the values of companies match our own.
Respect for the individual is paramount in the workplace. The new generation is not accepting simple categorisation and thus the idea of tribalism and population ownership. Borders were very relevant in the Earth Era, but with the rise of individuals, they will diminish.
With both Helen and May and others sharing their messages of transformation for the future to the world, it will be much easier for us to reach that ‘critical mass’ of people knowing and sharing the truth of our spiritual being and our universal connection.
So much fear and self-doubt still exist in people about not being enough and not having enough. This will cause resistance and slow down our transformation. If we know our true selves, our inner selves, and our greatest selves, we will be able to move beyond all fears that we have. We would be able to embrace this new era with a new way of thinking, understanding true abundance, have wonderful innovative ideas and work with others to create the world for ourselves and others that we desire. The Air Era is the time for us to uncover so much more about ourselves than we ever have before.
BEST MOMENTS
‘How is everyone, worldwide, going to survive? For me, the way I see it is that consciousness must be raised and therefore higher intelligence must be there and then we would think differently and act differently.’ - Helen
‘The point being, people were able to move across very large distances which means you were not limited within your family's business. A lot of young people at the time were very seduced and very attracted by this idea of going to a city.’ – May
‘I think this is blowing a lot of HR people’s minds. It used to be that you went to a young person and you offered them a really good salary, you threw a lot of benefits at them, and people would just flock to your company. Nowadays people are asking questions. They want to know what the company does. Do I believe in your cause?’ – May
‘When did this great cause that you had end and suddenly now it’s about your stock price?’ – May.
‘That’s not freedom.’ – Helen
‘As a student in Singapore, I was streamed throughout my entire education experience. You would take an exam and then they put you in the right class. I think this bothers a lot of people. Even as we have these borders starting to fall between countries, there is also this idea that if you are going to survive in this new mindset, we have to let go of things like defining people by specific profile lines, demographic lines....’ – May
‘I love the whole idea of humanity moving into what I consider is a higher consciousness where we will be far less focused on the material and more inclined to relax, enjoy life, create social impact, come together to create wonderful things for ourselves, our communities and our world, thereby co-creating a whole new world as we rise.’ – Helen
