Poetry shows me the reality that is in me, but that is not visible, says the poet and the astrologer – 27/07/2018 – Illustrated

For the poet and astrologer Júlia de Carvalho Hansen, 34, the poems, as astral cards, are oracles. "Poetry shows me a reality that's in me, but it's not visible," she says, who participated in an office at Flip on Thursday (26) with Brazilian Laura Erber and Portuguese Maria Teresa Horta , both video poets

Astrology shows you something similar – a map is a code, open only for those who know how to access it. "Sometimes I reread poems years later and saw things that I knew without knowing that I knew."

She lives in astrology – she makes between 30 and 40 astral cards a month in her studio in the west of São Paulo. But the astrological universe is not only a breadwinner – it's one of the ways she uses to contact various sensibilities, which are reflected in her poetry, as she l & # 39; 39, explains.

As the poet Hilda Hilst, honored in the Flip of this

Hansen takes ayahuasca for 12 years, attending shamans of native origin, studying i-ching, búzios, and concentrates now on the philosophy of tantra. All this, he says, is present in his poetry. "The ayahuasca puts us in the frequency of the unusual, because a person who writes, especially poetry, is something beautiful, because you are absolutely permeable and sensitive, but with a very honest interior helps to maintain only the essential. "

Tantric therapies, she says, help her access the same places as ayahuasca. "It has to do with the tantric sex, but not necessarily … These are ways to manage the vital energy, with therapists, classes, pompoarismo, meditation practices." 39; sexual, emotional and intellectual energy of a person is one and the same thing. "

This is an unusual trajectory, given that Hansen is the daughter of two University of São Paulo University scholars (USP) agnostics His father is the literary critic and professor of the university João Adolfo Hansen and his mother, educator Marta Maria Chagas of Carvalho

She, graduated in letters at the USP and earned a master's degree in Portuguese Studies at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa, grew up in a house that had "some 20 thousand pounds", but also had a yard with some "25 thousand species of plants".

"In a sense, all my writing is based on this connection between an absolutely humanized space and another, living with the sensory experience of the natural world."

He has four published books, three of poetry and one of prose – the last one was "Seiva Veneno or Fruto" (Edições Chão da Feira). Currently, she writes a volume of erotic poetry and love.
