D I R E C T I O N S—or direct ions—is a workshop about how direction is actually created.

A new direction is emerging.
What matters now is how we direct the ions.

D I R E C T IONS Workshop by Arik Xander

Maybe you’ve noticed that many spiritual leaders have been recently exposed as lacking the values we seek.

Not because truth all of a sudden appeared—the truth was always there for the brave and honest to see. They have been exposed because illusion can no longer hold.

This is one expression of Neptune moving into Aries: borrowed authority dissolves, personas collapse, and performances that once worked stop sustaining life. Empires shift the same way individuals do—not all at once, but at the exact point where pretending becomes impossible.

At the same time, a once-in-a-lifetime Saturn–Neptune conjunction occurs at zero degrees Aries on February 20, 2026—the Alpha Point of the zodiac. This marks a rare threshold where imagination and responsibility converge, and where the line between who we are and who we pretend to be becomes impossible to ignore.

Many people feel a surge of energy right now without a clear way to work with it. When energy arrives faster than we can orient to it, it doesn’t always become clarity. Often, it becomes overwhelm, exhaustion, or endless output without cohesion.

I created D I R E C T I O N S as a prepared workshop to meet this moment with organization and coherence as an invitation to understand how direction actually forms, how to accept it, and/or how to get back on track.

Pre-recorded. Asynchronous. Released by February 20th.

Direction forms when we can pause, listen, return, and engage at our own pace. This work isn’t something a teacher does to you. It’s something you step into when the structure is stable enough to hold sustained attention.

This workshop is for those who sense a long cycle completing—even if nothing dramatic has happened yet. For those who feel pulled toward something they can’t fully name, but know they can no longer ignore.

Inside D I R E C T I O N S, I will explain:

- how direction begins
- why many lives drift despite effort
- how energy becomes movement rather than noise
- and how choice can replace inheritance

This workshop offers a way to recognize what has been pulling you forward—and how to meet it with responsibility, clarity, and choice.

If you feel the pull, pay attention.Direction almost always arrives before explanation.
