The Qualities of April: Freedom and Frustration

Louis Bijl de Vroe and Simon Ohler are philosophers and brothers in spirit. When we get together, we combine culture, comedy, and ancient wisdom, and something happens. We like to call it Spiritual Mischief. In the vein of Spiritual Mischief, we create podcasts and education programs — and Interintellect Salons : )

What would you do if you were free? What is holding you back?

These are questions that Simon and Louis have been asking themselves since they were fledglings.

But to every question, there is a season (turn, turn, turn). And for the question of freedom, there is also a month, namely April.

Based on the I Ching, April is the last month of Spring. In April, the work is done that results in the lush green leaves of May. It’s a period of intense creativity that needs strength to break through, like giving birth. This resistance can be frustrating, but it will be done, and what will be born will be beautiful.

Louis and Simon have something to say about this because:

1) They have a history of being “reluctant artists”. Together they have set out to activate their true calling and their life’s work, and to break through the barriers, like procrastination, fear and limiting beliefs

and

2) They have studied the seasons for some years now, based on the ancient Chinese wisdom found in the I Ching, the book of changes. They even have an Interintellect series on the topic!

so!

If you want to delve into your own Freedom and Frustration, feel very much invited to join this salon, to channel your freedom and your life’s work, and to break through the frustrations that come with it.

Hope to see you there!
