1 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,840 Hi Virgo, welcome to Taurus season. 2 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:08,640 This is your season ahead reading from Embodied Astrology 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,080 and my name is Renee. We are working with the span of 4 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:16,200 time that extends between April 19th and May 20th. 5 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,120 This is Taurus season in 2025 and this is a general reading 6 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,040 for Virgo. So your sun, moon rising and 7 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,560 personal planets, your N node, they are all welcome here. 8 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,840 If you are not a Virgo rising, but you do know where Virgo 9 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,240 falls in your chart, you can always consider the house themes 10 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,920 for that placement. You can also always consider the 11 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:40,160 themes of your 6th house. General readings are general, so 12 00:00:40,160 --> 00:00:43,120 not everything is for everyone. If something comes through and 13 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,280 it doesn't resonate for you, it's not for you. 14 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,360 Let it go. Make the meanings that are most 15 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,680 meaningful for you. Take what works and leave the 16 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,520 rest. OK, Virgo, we have arrived at 17 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:59,320 tourist season. I am recording for you from five 18 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,920 months ago. At this point it is December 19 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:07,320 10th, it is Sagittarius season and I have just recorded the 20 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,960 readings, the season ahead readings for the last several 21 00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:13,760 seasons. We started back in Capricorn 22 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,880 season. Now we have arrived at Taurus 23 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,800 season and this is where I'm going to end my pre recording 24 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,200 project. I started this pre recording 25 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:28,800 project because I really wanted to shift my schedule for the 26 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:33,880 first four or five months of the year because I knew that this is 27 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:38,240 when so many new cycles are starting and so much change is 28 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,280 happening and I wanted to be available for it. 29 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,200 I do not still look the way that I look in this video. 30 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:51,640 It's, it's been some months, but Virgo, what has been going on 31 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,920 because some changes are happening. 32 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,960 You are not the person you were back in Capricorn season, that's 33 00:01:59,960 --> 00:02:03,160 for sure. You have been going through some 34 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:08,160 major alchemical shifting. And as we move into tourist 35 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,520 season, I feel that a lot of you have been going through some 36 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:16,880 kind of process that feels like a process of preparation and 37 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:22,680 readying for a really big project to begin. 38 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,480 Now. A could be an actual project. 39 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,040 It could be a new direction in your life or a new chapter. 40 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,640 It could just be a new way of being. 41 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,000 But some of you are really starting something new right 42 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,360 now. And it feels that a lot of you 43 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:44,240 are starting things that have to do with your sense of purpose, 44 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,560 your life path, potentially career and vocation. 45 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,840 It feels like a lot of you are putting yourself out into the 46 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,720 world in some kind of way. I said back in Capricorn season, 47 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,800 I feel like you're preparing for coming out in 2026. 48 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,960 What are you coming out with, Virgo? 49 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,520 Tell me in the comments. I really want to know what are 50 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,600 these new projects? What are these new life paths? 51 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,880 What are these new directions? What who's the new you that we 52 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,400 are now getting to meet in Taurus season? 53 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,680 Because this is when it really starts to manifest and become 54 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,720 visible. So Taurus is an earth energy 55 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,280 like a Virgo. And coming into this season you 56 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,000 are just getting some support. It's always nice to be in a 57 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,920 elemental affinity season. It's a stabilizing kind of 58 00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:35,880 support. Taurus lives in a place in the 59 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,560 Virgo solar charts called the 9th house, and the 9th house is 60 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,880 the top of the mountain. This is the place that you get 61 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,840 to after a lot of hard work, and the hard work has taught you a 62 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,360 lot. It has informed you, it has 63 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,360 clarified your beliefs, it has put you into a position where 64 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,080 you have an opinion about some things. 65 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,680 You have your personal philosophy and it is guiding 66 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:03,560 you. And over the last 7 to 8 years, 67 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,160 this part of your chart has been really activated by the presence 68 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,560 of the outer planet Uranus. Now, Uranus entered Taurus in 69 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:16,240 2018. And what Uranus brings wherever 70 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,360 it's transiting is innovation. It is an outer planet. 71 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,360 It has an 84 year orbit around the sun. 72 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,840 It spends about seven years in every sign. 73 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,640 That's a hot minute. That's enough time to be pretty 74 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:34,560 changed by something. So innovation, experimentation 75 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:40,320 and awakening of consciousness are major themes, key themes for 76 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,640 uranium energy. It is also an energy that can be 77 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,840 very disruptive, very chaotic, it can catch us by surprise and 78 00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:51,520 it can completely turn things around in very unexpected ways. 79 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,000 But ultimately this energy is about liberation and awakening. 80 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:02,160 So over these last 7 to 8 years, Uranus traveling through Taurus 81 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,600 and through your 9th house has been a period of time when I 82 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,200 think a lot of Virgos were really on a quest for something 83 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,400 in the 9th house. One of the key themes is 84 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,720 questing. What were you seeking in this 85 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,560 journey that you've been on Virgo? 86 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,120 A lot of you were seeking your own guidance. 87 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,280 You were seeking your own perennial wisdom. 88 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,560 You were seeking your own teachings. 89 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,520 This is a place in your chart that actually wants you to 90 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:38,160 recognize that you hold high wisdom teachings, that you are a 91 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,400 teacher and a guide and an advisor. 92 00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:44,480 And all teachers, guides and advisors are also students and 93 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,800 seekers and people who have needed to be advised. 94 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,920 And the ways that we become wise are by asking questions and 95 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,840 learning and then putting it into practice. 96 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,800 And so over these last 7 to 8 years, I feel that a lot of you 97 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,680 have been following a call to expand your consciousness in 98 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,200 some way. And in this expansion of your 99 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,240 consciousness, you may have been turned around and disoriented 100 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:14,560 more than a couple of times. You probably needed to let go of 101 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,280 a lot of your attachments to certain kinds of ideas, 102 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:24,440 particularly attachments to like I'm going to say value systems, 103 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,840 you know, And this could be something like, if you think 104 00:06:27,840 --> 00:06:33,240 back to yourself in 2018 and maybe you recognize that you 105 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,520 used to have a lot of judgement about something. 106 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,640 Maybe it's like a particular type of person or a particular 107 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,520 kind of idea or something like that. 108 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,600 But over this last stretch of time, you've had all these 109 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:50,240 experiences that actually really transformed that judgement. 110 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:55,240 You've developed insight and compassion and awareness around 111 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,960 like what creates the situation for the thing that you were 112 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,240 judging. You've also recognized that you 113 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,560 maybe have some kinds of qualities that reflect or are 114 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,120 similar and you've you've shifted and now that thing that 115 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,200 you used to judge is not at all giving you the same kind of 116 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,800 vibe. You understand it in a really 117 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,840 different way. You might not want to get close 118 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,760 to it, but you have some kind of awareness that allows you to 119 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,000 work with it somehow. So that's just an example. 120 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,920 OK? I don't know what it is for you. 121 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,000 I would really love to know if you want to let me know in a 122 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,520 comment. But I do feel that a lot of you 123 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:36,080 are update, you have updated and innovative your world views in 124 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,120 some really important ways. And I think that a lot of you 125 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:45,360 have really gained a lot of learning and practical 126 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:50,600 experience and you you have embodied the knowledge that you 127 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,480 have been seeking. And that is what produces 128 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,040 wisdom. It's when we grapple with it, 129 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,800 right? When we embody it, when we try 130 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,960 to manifest with it, when we interact with it and like 131 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,320 struggle and fail and all that. That's actually when we become 132 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,840 wise. And I feel that this has been 133 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,160 the process for a lot of you is maybe you were on a path of 134 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,040 education or higher learning. Maybe you were just seeking 135 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,520 answers for yourself. Maybe you were trying to do some 136 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,040 kind of self development work, but you've really had to apply 137 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:25,800 it in your body. And now your life is asking you 138 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,360 to take leadership with that energy. 139 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:33,520 Somehow your life is asking you to take this energy out and into 140 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,320 the world and make it public. And so there are themes here 141 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,600 like if you've been studying something for a while now, 142 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,280 you're going to make a career out of it. 143 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,840 Or if you've been developing yourself in some kind of way for 144 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,640 a while, then now you're ready to be known for it or something. 145 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:55,680 And in Taurus season, Uranus is leaving Taurus almost 146 00:08:55,680 --> 00:08:57,920 immediately. So Taurus season starts on the 147 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:05,480 19th of April and then on the 23rd, I think 23rd, somewhere 148 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,040 between the 23rd and the 25th. I can't read my own notes. 149 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,640 Uranus is leaving Taurus and moving into Gemini. 150 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,240 Now Gemini is a mutable sign like Virgo, and it holds the 151 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,800 heaven of your chart. And so when I was saying there's 152 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,560 this transition from something you've been learning now into 153 00:09:23,560 --> 00:09:27,720 something that you like own and claim, you're going from a 154 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,440 student, you're becoming a teacher, right? 155 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,640 You studied something, now it's becoming a career that is a 156 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,160 transition from the 9th house to the 10th house and the 10th 157 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,280 house. Where Gemini is for Virgos, is a 158 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,960 place of public recognition. It is your most visible, social, 159 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,520 externalized self. This is the place where we 160 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:53,960 understand a lot more about the power that you hold in your life 161 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,160 and your relationship with your own authority and also your 162 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,000 relationship with authority in the world. 163 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,760 This is also a place where we get information about your 164 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,600 career and your vocation and your life path and how you are 165 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,680 holding your energy in the world as if it means something because 166 00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:15,160 it does. So what kind of person are you 167 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,160 now? Uranus will be in Gemini for 168 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,680 another seven years. It will be there until 2033. 169 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,080 And over these next seven years, now you need to innovate and 170 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,280 experiment with your vocation and career. 171 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:35,120 You need to get upheaved and surprised and turned all kinds 172 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,120 of ways around when it comes to who you are in the world and 173 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:43,600 what you are doing and standing for and the kind of authority or 174 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,640 power that you represent. Now Venus is moving into Gemini 175 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,320 with Uranus. It moves in the day before and 176 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,720 Venus is the planetary ruler of Taurus. 177 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,960 So there is so much support coming in for you with this 178 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,680 transition and I feel that you are ready. 179 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,360 Whatever it is that you have been doing that is now 180 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,280 facilitating this paradigm shift in your life, you're ready for 181 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,320 it. You have embodied it again. 182 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,000 There is this feeling of embodied wisdom that now is 183 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,720 coming into like a role that is more visible where people are 184 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,040 seeing you as some kind of authority or guide. 185 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,840 And you can also see that in yourself. 186 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,160 And I think that you will increasingly feel and sense and 187 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,120 see this in yourself over the coming years. 188 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,920 Hi, I'm sorry to interrupt your horoscopes, but I have a 189 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,520 question to ask you. Have you noticed how many 190 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,480 popular contemporary astrologers are women or AFAB or queer 191 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,160 creative people? I have and it's made me so 192 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,440 curious as to why that is. My name is Alicia and I'm the 193 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,960 community coordinator here at Embodied Astrology. 194 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,360 And on Saturday, June 13th, I'm excited to interview Renee 195 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,920 Sills, Alice Barkleycat, and Blair Bogan from Sister Bright 196 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,440 Astrology about their work as queer astrologers and artists. 197 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,920 What I love most about the astrologers that I follow today, 198 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,560 and these three folks in particular, is that they're 199 00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:06,560 weirdos. And I mean that as high 200 00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:09,000 compliment. They're all unconventional 201 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,280 people with brilliant minds. They're witches, healers, and 202 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,000 tricksters who are translating this ancient language of 203 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,520 astrology in ways that are deeply supportive and orienting 204 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,080 for the times that we're in right now. 205 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,720 If you're here listening to an embodied astrology horoscope, 206 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,480 I'm guessing you feel similarly. If you do, I'd like to invite 207 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,680 you to join us on Saturday, June 13th. 208 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,160 We'll be exploring inherent queerness and queering practices 209 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,720 for astrology, blending astrology with other skill sets, 210 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,600 interests, and methodologies, and the power and potential of 211 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,360 this technology when it's placed in the hands of the people. 212 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,800 I'm really interested in knowing more about how we can leverage 213 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,280 astrology for our personal and collective liberation, So if 214 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,920 these lines of inquiry interest you too, I hope you'll join us 215 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,000 for what is sure to be a fun and fascinating conversation. 216 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,240 You'll also be invited to ask your own questions and join in 217 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,280 on the fun. You can find more information 218 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,760 about the event and a link to register in the show notes. 219 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,720 I hope to see you there. Another thing that's happening 220 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,440 in tourist season is that Pluto is stationing retrograde in 221 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,880 Aquarius. I don't always deal with 222 00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:17,280 planetary outer planet retrogrades because they're 223 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,560 retrograde for like half the year, but this one feels 224 00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:23,080 significant in terms of what we've been talking about. 225 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,360 Pluto is stationing retrograde just a couple of days after the 226 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,520 full moon in Scorpio. I'll talk about that next. 227 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,040 But Aquarius is an air sign like Gemini, and where Aquarius lives 228 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,480 in your chart is in the 6th house, which does have to do 229 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:40,360 with jobs and labor and your responsibility, which is 230 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,120 different than your career or what you're known for or 231 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,680 something like that. But the fact that these changes 232 00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:48,840 are happening at the same time really gives me the feeling that 233 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,240 Virgos are changing the thing that they do. 234 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:56,080 And I think a lot of you are starting some kind of new job or 235 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,880 you have started or you're about to start or you're shifting what 236 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,920 it is that you do and you're starting to do it in really 237 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,720 different ways. There are major themes this year 238 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,960 and for the foreseeable future that have to do with you working 239 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:16,000 with relationships and connections and building shared 240 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,320 power with communities and collectives. 241 00:14:18,560 --> 00:14:22,440 There are also major themes around you working with your own 242 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:29,440 power and how you connect in the world around you through your 243 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,560 nervous system and your energy. Because you really, I think, 244 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:38,600 want to be empowered right now. And many of you are also like 245 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,240 you're, you're bringing your power to some kind of field that 246 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,840 has to do with making connections, whether this is 247 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,120 information or technology or education or, you know, 248 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,440 something in the arts. But it does feel like there's 249 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:57,400 this paradigm shift that's happening collectively in the 250 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:04,320 world that is now creating a sense of environmental readiness 251 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,480 for you to be doing the thing that you are about to do. 252 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,280 I talk a lot about this in your 2026 year head reading. 253 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,240 It is a main theme is thinking about like this big new picture 254 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,200 that you're headed into. And this is a picture that is 255 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:26,240 going to take the next 7 to 18 years to fully get formed. 256 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,600 In the next 7 to 18 years, all kinds of things are going to be 257 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,000 happening. So if you have this map and this 258 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,960 sense of larger big picture coherence and strategy, it can 259 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,360 really help you move through the day-to-day and the seasonal 260 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,480 shifts. Because inside of them, 261 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,600 sometimes you don't always know what you're doing, just like 262 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,760 anybody. So that 2026 year head reading 263 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,080 is about two to three hours. I really take a long time to 264 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,760 break down what's happening with the outer planets, the eclipses 265 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,120 and retrogrades in 2026. You want to know about a lot of 266 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,240 these things. Eclipses have been in your sign. 267 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,520 Retrogrades are moving through your opposite sign. 268 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,480 So the information for that is in the description box in the 269 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,280 show notes below. But this season and tourist 270 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:14,240 season, some of these kind of bigger picture influences are 271 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:18,000 really notable and that includes Uranus in Gemini and Pluto and 272 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:22,040 Aquarius. Otherwise, I'm going to say that 273 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:27,400 tourist season actually is a season that feels really 274 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,600 cohering. It feels strengthening, 275 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,560 especially in the Virgo charts. It feels like a time when you 276 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,880 are building power and gaining power and kind of understanding 277 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,200 what you're working with and what your options are. 278 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,040 I think that over the course of the last several months in 2026, 279 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,200 there has been this element of preparation for something. 280 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,960 And if you're not fully coming out in Taurus season, then it 281 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:54,560 probably will be by Leo season. So you're, you're reaching some 282 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:59,520 kind of point where something is getting formed and shaped and if 283 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:04,440 it's not fully ready to be presented or applied or, or you 284 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:08,359 know, start to engage with, then it's getting closer to ready. 285 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:14,319 There is a full Moon in Scorpio on May 1st and a new Moon in 286 00:17:14,319 --> 00:17:22,240 Taurus on May 16th. And between these loo nations, 287 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,040 Mercury is moving from Aries into Taurus. 288 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:32,960 Now Aries and Scorpio are Mars ruled energies and Taurus is a 289 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,520 Venus ruled energy. And so between the full moon and 290 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,200 the New moon, I there's something that is happening that 291 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,680 feels like it is. It is ushering you into a way of 292 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,000 being more receptive and in your body about something. 293 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,080 Now, if you go back and listen to my Aries season reading for 294 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,840 you, Virgo, I was talking a lot about having a warrior like 295 00:17:55,880 --> 00:18:00,480 energy and attitude and how important it is that you are 296 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,680 building your own power and that you're building power with 297 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,360 others. And I think that as we move into 298 00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:09,960 tourist season, you're coming out of some energy that had a 299 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,640 lot of intensity to it. And that intensity could have 300 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,160 been extremely energizing and fun to be working with. 301 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,080 It could have also just been really fucking intense and maybe 302 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,760 bringing in some amount of conflict or situations where you 303 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,080 really needed to mobilize or activate or something like that. 304 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,680 But then in tourist season, I feel that a lot of you are like 305 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:34,640 who you are settling. This is a great time for you to 306 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,000 tap into the perennial truths that you have been seeking for 307 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,240 these last 7 to 8 years. If there are teachers or 308 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,240 teachings or lineages or legacies that when you connect 309 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,200 with them, you're like, yes, this has to do with my reason 310 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,040 why. You know, I feel that way with 311 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,560 astrology. I also feel that way with a lot 312 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,120 of spiritual paths. The perennial wisdom paths are 313 00:18:56,120 --> 00:18:58,080 deeply, deeply a part of my soul. 314 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,800 And, you know, like, sometimes I'll just put on a Dharma talk, 315 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,920 right? And I'll listen to a meditation 316 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,760 teacher talk to me about, you know, consciousness. 317 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:14,040 And I'm like, yes, right. Or sometimes I go see art and 318 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:18,920 being around art is so inspiring for me and it reminds me about 319 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,920 something. Being in nature also is very 320 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:27,680 much this way for me. And the, the, the vastness and 321 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:34,040 the intricacy of the details and the enormity of the earth, 322 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:39,080 really just like it makes my mind feel expansive. 323 00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:43,400 It, it puts me into my right size, you know, where I can just 324 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,480 be part of a whole and I can kind of let go of my ego trips 325 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,120 and, and be really receptive. And I feel like this is the 326 00:19:52,120 --> 00:19:55,720 energy that you want to be connecting with between the full 327 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,600 moon and the new moon. And especially as we approach 328 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,400 the New moon in Taurus, I feel like you want to be receptive to 329 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,800 that which lights you up and makes you feel alive and gets 330 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,840 you connected with your deep wisdom. 331 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,400 You want to be inspired, you want to be motivated, you want 332 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,400 to be reminded of the perennial truths that speak most deeply to 333 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,000 your heart. So what is that for you, Virgo? 334 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,640 Is it getting outside into nature? 335 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,840 Is it connecting with particular teachers or teachings? 336 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,000 Is it astrology? Is it mysticism? 337 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,400 Is it art? Is it science? 338 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,600 What is it connect with that? And then the new moon on the 339 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:39,880 16th of May follows the Mercury Sun superior conjunction or 340 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,520 kazimi that happens on the 14th of May. 341 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,720 And this Kazimi aligns with the asteroid series. 342 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:53,000 Now series is about how we nourish ourselves and also how 343 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,680 we nourish others. When we're working with series 344 00:20:55,680 --> 00:21:01,680 as an influence, we are working with seasonal cyclical resource, 345 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:07,040 and series reminds us that it is not always a season of 346 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,880 abundance. Sometimes it is definitely a 347 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,920 season of loss or scarcity or lack. 348 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,200 And working skillfully with Ceres is also about working 349 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,360 skillfully with our expectations, tending to our 350 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:26,920 needs when we need to let go in the space of loss. 351 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:32,040 Also doing what we need to do to replenish and regenerate our own 352 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:36,600 energy and remember why we are going to keep going. 353 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,640 Why are why we are continuing to tend to our own life? 354 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,800 And so I really feel like this New Moon in Taurus wants you to 355 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:50,080 be tending to your own life and feeding yourself that which is 356 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,360 the most nourishing for your spirit. 357 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,400 That feels complete. Actually, I think I'm going to 358 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,200 stay there. We talked about the full moon, 359 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,240 we talked about the New moon, we talked about Uranus, we talked 360 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,920 about Pluto. Those are the main themes that 361 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,480 are coming in for tourist season. 362 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,120 I do want to pull a card for you, Virgo. 363 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:17,680 If you don't know by now, this last couple of months since 364 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,240 Capricorn season, I have been working with the Lineages of 365 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:25,680 Change deck for these readings because this is a time of change 366 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,920 and we can benefit from the teachings and the wisdom 367 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:37,320 guidance of the ones or many of the ones who have really 368 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,560 prepared us to work skillfully with change. 369 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,240 If you're an Octavia Butler fan, you might really love this deck. 370 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,320 It comes through with a lot of the wisdom that she brought 371 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,160 through around shaping change. And change is God. 372 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,720 And the Virgo thought leader and visionary Adrian Marie Brown, I 373 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:58,080 believe, was one of the main catalysts for this deck to come 374 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,920 into the world. So we're just going to tune in 375 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,240 right now. And Virgo, I want to invite you 376 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:09,120 to tune in with your body, to tune in with your breath, and to 377 00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:13,720 tune in with the Earth, remembering that you are a child 378 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,960 of Earth. And we are going to ask for 379 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:21,360 guidance that can come through for Virgo in Taurus season as 380 00:23:21,360 --> 00:23:24,280 Uranus leaves Taurus and moves into Gemini. 381 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,000 As we work with the relationship between Uranus and Pluto and the 382 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,640 Full Moon and the New Moon and Mercury's Kazemi with Ceres, we 383 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,200 are asking Spirit for the most helpful information to come 384 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:42,640 through for Virgo that will facilitate the greatest possible 385 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:50,800 benefits for all on Earth. And the Earth itself wanted to 386 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:56,400 come through. Oh Virgo Major Arcana coming 387 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,320 through for Virgo in tourist season. 388 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,520 He pulled the star. I love this picture. 389 00:24:02,360 --> 00:24:07,880 The star relates with Aquarius, and Aquarius sometimes is talked 390 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,520 about as the sign of the future and the sign of youth. 391 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,480 And I love that the artist who created this card has this young 392 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:19,920 person, you know, in front of this just field of stars. 393 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,920 And, yeah, these rainbow shapes are kind of floating around 394 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,600 them. And this look that the kid has 395 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,880 on their face, you know, is like, what's possible out there? 396 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:36,920 What's going on? So what's coming through for me 397 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,040 right now with this card and the star? 398 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,240 As confirmation for your Taurus reading and also as final 399 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,080 advice, maybe not full confirmation for everything I 400 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:49,240 said, but its own confirmation is that you contain all 401 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:54,880 knowledge within you, Virgo. You are made out of universal 402 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:59,320 substance and stuff. The cells in your body are the 403 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,400 stuff of stars, and the wisdom of the star card is that we are 404 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:07,080 really not alone. The sun is a star. 405 00:25:07,120 --> 00:25:10,480 The sun is not even, you know, the most powerful, biggest star. 406 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,800 It's just like a normal star on the kind of faraway tip of the 407 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,080 arm of the Milky Way. And there are countless infinite 408 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,440 stars in the sky. And stars are very powerful 409 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,640 beings. And just like us, they're also 410 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,480 temporary beings. But they shine their light, they 411 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,920 burn and combust their gases without apology. 412 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,760 And what stars can give us is everything. 413 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,120 And when we really TuneIn with our own light and with our own 414 00:25:41,120 --> 00:25:47,480 lives, and we give what we have to give, we give everything that 415 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,320 we can give to these lives and to the larger constellations 416 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,920 that we are a part of. And so the Star Card is 417 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:58,080 encouraging you to be yourself, to really follow your own truth, 418 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:02,880 to know your own wisdom and to tap into your unique gifts, your 419 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,600 particular curiosities and the directions that compel you the 420 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,800 most and to have confidence in that because you don't need to 421 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,400 be anybody other than you. There is nothing that you need 422 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:18,000 to prove in this life. And very, very deeply, the 423 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,880 person that you need to satisfy the most is yourself. 424 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,280 So this card coming in with this season feels exciting for me. 425 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,280 It feels like it's time for you to claim who you are, Virgo, 426 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,040 because I don't know what you've been up to, but you've been 427 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,400 building something, you've been preparing for something. 428 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,360 You are someone right now that the world needs. 429 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,760 And I feel like a lot of you have been kind of more 430 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,600 underground with certain developments and it's your time 431 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,280 to shine.
