1
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,520
All right. 
Well, hello and welcome. 

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,680
Thanks for joining me here for a
special episode of Embodied 

3
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:15,080
Astrology. 
My name is Renee and I have just

4
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:20,200
finished in the last two days or
so recording horoscopes for the 

5
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:24,160
seasons ahead from Gemini 
through Virgo season. 

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,000
And I wanted to come on and do a
special episode to give a little

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,640
bit of a forecast forward, not 
just through Gemini season, but 

8
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,800
from this point where we are at 
the beginning of Gemini season, 

9
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,680
which is the midpoint between 
eclipses, through Virgo season 

10
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:47,000
into the next set of eclipses. 
I'm recording for you on the 

11
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,280
Moon's day. 
It is Monday, May 18th. 

12
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,600
It is about 7:45 PM Pacific 
Time. 

13
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,240
It is Taurus season, just the 
last couple of days of Taurus 

14
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:03,280
season and Mercury has gone into
Gemini, Moved into Gemini last 

15
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,560
night and today. 
Venus has left Gemini and moved 

16
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,920
into Cancer. 
Mars has moved into Taurus. 

17
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,400
They are sextile with each other
and they will be there for a 

18
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,520
good chunk of Gemini season. 
Venus will go into Leo, but Mars

19
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,080
will stay in Taurus through the 
season. 

20
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,800
Mercury is going to make a 
sextile to Neptune in a couple 

21
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:30,200
of hours and I have had a 
journey getting here to record 

22
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,880
this. 
I am in a major moment of 

23
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:38,080
transition in my life, and that 
means that I don't have a stable

24
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,760
place to record. 
And so I am using the spaces 

25
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,160
that I have access to. 
And the space that I'm in 

26
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:51,000
tonight is a really beautiful 
space, as you might be able to 

27
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,120
tell from the little bit that 
you can see in the video. 

28
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,520
And I can see the sun setting 
through the windows of an old 

29
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,440
Abbey, the church that I'm in 
right now. 

30
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,880
And I'm in the office of a 
beloved of mine. 

31
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,759
So I just want to say a big 
thank you to Ayana Kai and 

32
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:12,920
Sharita Town for letting me use 
this space to record this 

33
00:02:12,920 --> 00:02:19,160
episode and a little bit of the 
lay of the land. 

34
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:24,000
As I mentioned, I have just 
finished recording 48 

35
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:30,680
horoscopes, so all 12 signs 
through Four Seasons and that's 

36
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,080
quite an undertaking. 
I started to do batch recordings

37
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:40,240
for multiple seasons last year 
because I as an astrologer, I'm 

38
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,320
always timing my life with 
astrology. 

39
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,400
And I was looking at the 
astrology of the upcoming times 

40
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,240
and recognizing how it would be 
influencing my chart and 

41
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,800
predicting for myself that I 
would be in a unstable 

42
00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:00,520
situation. 
And that has come to pass also 

43
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,920
through my planning and 
strategy. 

44
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,360
It has also been somewhat 
intentional. 

45
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:14,480
But as a teacher of mine has 
said and as I like to say, every

46
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,560
time is a good time if you know 
what the time is good for. 

47
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,240
And where we are in 2026 and 
where we have been, I would say 

48
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:28,160
really since 2020 is in a time 
that needs us to be adaptable 

49
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,840
and ready to change and ready to
meet the moment. 

50
00:03:32,920 --> 00:03:38,000
And for those of us whose charts
are getting heavily influenced, 

51
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,480
and you don't need to know your 
chart placements to know if 

52
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,480
you're getting a lot of 
influences, you can probably 

53
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,720
just feel it. 
It is probably a good idea to 

54
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:53,560
try to loosen up your life a 
little bit, to allow yourself to

55
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,920
change. 
And change requires presence. 

56
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:03,440
And so part of my batch 
recording strategy is to give 

57
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,000
myself presence. 
So I work intensely for a couple

58
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,240
of weeks, do a bunch of 
recording, and then I have a 

59
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,760
different kind of rhythmicity in
my schedule if I'm not planning 

60
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,760
for that every month. 
And it's also been a really 

61
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:25,360
interesting way to deepen into 
cycles of time and to also 

62
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,040
practice divination in a 
different way. 

63
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:33,120
I really have to let go of 
needing to know what's happening

64
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,920
in the world and just TuneIn 
with energy. 

65
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,280
And for me, this has been a 
blessing and it's part of what 

66
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:41,920
I'm trying to practice right 
now. 

67
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,760
So in the reading that I'm about
to give, this will be a general 

68
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,960
reading for the collective that 
finds it. 

69
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:57,840
And this is for all signs. 
And this reading is going to 

70
00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:02,880
explore some of what I think is 
most notable from now through 

71
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,920
Virgo season. 
And so as I mentioned, Gemini 

72
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,680
season is the midpoint between 
eclipses. 

73
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:14,320
There were eclipses in February 
and March earlier this year and 

74
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,240
there will be eclipses again in 
August. 

75
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,160
And the eclipses are in the 
mutable signs moving into the 

76
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,120
fixed signs. 
And right now we are in a fixed 

77
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,920
sign moving into a mutable sign 
right now being the day that I'm

78
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,920
recording for you cusp almost of
Taurus season into Gemini. 

79
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:40,920
So I'll just do my thing, and my
thing tends to be tangential. 

80
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:46,440
I love a good tangent and 
sensational. 

81
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:52,600
I think through the language of 
the body, so I'm going to 

82
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,840
describe sensations and 
energies. 

83
00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:03,480
I will do my best to avoid 
forecasting world events or 

84
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,640
things like that, and we'll 
speak more to the energies that 

85
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,440
I feel. 
So take what works and leave the

86
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,080
rest. 
Remember that not everything is 

87
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,160
for everyone always, no matter 
who's talking or what they're 

88
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,840
talking about. 
And make the meanings that are 

89
00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:25,400
most meaningful for you. 
All right, so I want to start 

90
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:30,000
just by talking about the 
exceptional circumstance of the 

91
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:36,080
astrology in 2026. 
If you listened or watched your 

92
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,320
2026 Year Ahead reading, I did 
those for all signs. 

93
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:45,040
Also, in a batch recording last 
Sagittarius season, you heard me

94
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:52,360
say that 2026 is a pivot year or
a keystone year, and astrologers

95
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:57,680
for centuries have been 
forecasting and predicting 2026 

96
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,040
to be a year of massive and 
profound change. 

97
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,400
And we are inside of it now. 
Or perhaps you're somewhere in 

98
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:13,120
the future listening back and 
reflecting, and indeed, it feels

99
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,480
like a massive year of a lot of 
change from inside of it. 

100
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:24,520
It may not be obvious that we 
are really at a pivot point and 

101
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:30,960
that things will be changing 
immensely and that the world 

102
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:35,080
that we have all known over the 
last decades, however long we 

103
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,760
may have been here, is going to 
become a very different world. 

104
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,120
That's my prediction. 
I think that we are on the 

105
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:49,080
precipice of living in a very 
different kind of world, but the

106
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:55,440
precipice and astrological time 
could be anywhere from 7 years 

107
00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:03,280
to maybe 100 or so. 
I think within our lifetimes we 

108
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:10,120
will definitely see really 
profound change and in the next 

109
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:15,160
7 to 17 years, following the 
transits of the outer planets 

110
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:20,440
currently I think we will find 
that we are living in a very new

111
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:26,760
and different world. 
In 2024 the outer planet started

112
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:32,280
to change from Earth and water 
signs into fire and Air signs 

113
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,880
and the 1st planet to change 
signs was Pluto. 

114
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:42,200
Pluto had been in Capricorn 
since 2008, and in 2024 it made 

115
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:47,160
its final ingress into Aquarius.
Pluto will stay in Aquarius 

116
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:52,320
until 2043. 
In and out in the last year or 

117
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,880
so, as outer planets do tend to 
retrograde back and forth 

118
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,400
between signs because they move 
so slowly. 

119
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:08,680
In 2025, the planets Neptune and
Uranus also began to change 

120
00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:12,240
signs. 
Neptune moved into the early 

121
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:17,240
degree of Aries and then 
retrograded back into Pisces. 

122
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:22,040
And Uranus moved into the early 
degrees of Gemini and then 

123
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,840
retrograded back into Taurus. 
And both of them moved into the 

124
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,920
new signs in the middle of the 
year and then they retrograded 

125
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:35,480
back at the end of the year. 
And so 2025 started to have a 

126
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:40,000
little bit of taste of all three
planets having moved out of 

127
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,760
Earth and Water signs and into 
fire and Air signs. 

128
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:50,440
Neptune had been in Pisces since
20/11/2012. 

129
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,680
Uranus had been in Taurus since 
2018. 

130
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,800
The outer planets are all 
planets that have fairly long 

131
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,160
orbital cycles, Uranus being the
shortest orbital cycle at 84 

132
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:09,720
years, which is about the life 
of a healthy human lifespan, or 

133
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,200
about the length of a healthy 
human lifespan if we're 

134
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,840
fortunate enough to live that 
long. 

135
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,080
Neptune takes about a century 
and a half, and Pluto takes 

136
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,880
about 2 1/2 centuries to orbit 
the Sun. 

137
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:28,520
And so their orbits are beyond 
our lifetime expectancies, and 

138
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:33,880
their orbits and tenures in any 
Zodiac sign speak to 

139
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,360
generational and collective 
experiences. 

140
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:43,480
And as Stephen Forrest says, the
outer planets are really weird. 

141
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,840
The influences of them when we 
track them with astrology are 

142
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,280
strange. 
They're stranger than strange. 

143
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,880
They're weirder than weird. 
To try to fathom what they evoke

144
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,600
is to stretch into the limits of
our imagination and then to 

145
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,480
reach the capacities of our own 
imagination. 

146
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,720
The places that they bring us to
in our personal consciousness as

147
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:13,320
long term transits are into the 
depths and into the falling 

148
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:18,160
apart and breaking away of our 
egos and illusions and delusions

149
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,760
into the dissolving of what we 
might think of as reality and 

150
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:32,080
into some profound awakenings 
and hopefully deep and powerful 

151
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,560
transformation and liberation. 
On a collective level, the outer

152
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:40,320
planets are describing the 
movement of time across 

153
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:46,960
generation and through society 
and culture as individuals. 

154
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,880
And I think that as individual 
people, we're kind of like 

155
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:56,640
individual cells in one body. 
We're so small and there's so 

156
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:02,520
many of us, and we all exist in 
our own locations and we have 

157
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,600
only the perspective that we 
have. 

158
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,800
There are many people who are 
very conscious and very awakened

159
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:14,120
and very imaginative and very 
compassionate and can expand the

160
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:19,080
limits of their perception, but 
none of us is capable of total 

161
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,120
perception in terms of 
everything that life on Earth 

162
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,440
has to offer us. 
So the outer planets are working

163
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:31,680
through multitudes, and not only
the human multitudes, but the 

164
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,520
environmental multitudes, the 
atmospheric multitudes, the 

165
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:40,280
plant and the animal life 
multitudes, and we are all 

166
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,160
affecting each other and we are 
all changing all the time. 

167
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,680
And so the weirder than weirder,
stranger than strange, exceeds 

168
00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:51,560
and extends beyond human 
perception and consciousness and

169
00:12:51,560 --> 00:12:58,040
life, and I'm sure that it 
extends far beyond the Earth and

170
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,480
into the influences of space and
the stuff that we're made of. 

171
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:08,800
So in 2025, all of the outer 
planets started to resonate in 

172
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,800
their new energies and fire and 
air energies. 

173
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,080
But then, as I mentioned, at the
end of the year, towards October

174
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:22,360
and November, Uranus and Neptune
retrograded back into Earth and 

175
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:27,760
water science. 
So you might be able to recall 

176
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,880
what the middle of 2025 felt 
like for you. 

177
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,480
You could think about June or 
July through October or November

178
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,440
and just what was happening in 
your life. 

179
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,440
Was anything starting to change?
Were things beginning to 

180
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,040
accelerate? 
Were different kinds of 

181
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,920
momentums starting to make 
themselves known in terms of 

182
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:56,120
what was accelerating? 
Were some things becoming less 

183
00:13:56,560 --> 00:14:03,240
sticky in your life and losing 
their grasp, perhaps on the 

184
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,520
material foundations of your 
attachments or realities? 

185
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,920
In October and November they 
both returned to Earth and water

186
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:18,840
signs, and they were there until
fairly recently. 

187
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:25,560
So Neptune moved back into Aries
in January of 2026, and Uranus 

188
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:30,400
has come back into Gemini as of 
late April 2026. 

189
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:38,960
So between the end of 2025 and 
the beginning of 2026, you may 

190
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:43,480
have also noticed a little bit 
of receding kind of quality of 

191
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,400
whatever may have accelerated or
started to change in the middle 

192
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,760
of 2025. 
There may have been issues in 

193
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:56,080
the realms of earth and water 
that needed you to attend to 

194
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,720
them. 
And symbolically speaking, in 

195
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,520
astrology, the realms of earth 
and water are the realms of the 

196
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:07,720
material and the emotional. 
And so in the physical and in 

197
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,440
the relational, you may have 
been dealing with some things. 

198
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,760
And the physical includes all 
things physical, your body, your

199
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:19,560
stuff, your money, your house, 
the earth, the land, etcetera. 

200
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:24,680
And relational includes all of 
your bonds and your feelings, 

201
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,880
your internal experience, 
emotional, psychological 

202
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:37,120
experience, etcetera. 
In January Neptune entered Aries

203
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:42,360
and then in February Saturn also
re entered Aries. 

204
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:48,280
Like Neptune, Saturn had a brief
visit to Aries in 2025 and for 

205
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,640
the last 2 1/2 years of 
Neptune's tenure in Pisces, 

206
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,880
Saturn was there as well. 
Now Saturn is a slow moving 

207
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,400
planet, but not nearly as slow 
as the outer planets. 

208
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:05,000
It has a 29 year orbit around 
the Sun and Saturn comes into 

209
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,640
contact or into conjunction with
Neptune once every 30-7 years. 

210
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,720
And the Saturn Neptune 
conjunctions are historic 

211
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,640
events. 
They are times on Earth that are

212
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,080
full of world building but also 
world ending. 

213
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,920
There are times when empires 
fall apart, when boundaries are 

214
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:30,240
blurred and sometimes dissolve 
and sometimes are erected. 

215
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,960
They are often times of 
obscuration, of deeper 

216
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:40,200
intentionality when it comes to 
the forces of colonization and 

217
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,040
war. 
They are times of mass 

218
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:49,800
imagination when a lot of people
can feel that palpably the world

219
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:56,360
is changing, and Saturn 
represents a kind of bridge or 

220
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,960
linking between the outer 
planets and the inner planets, 

221
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,800
or between what we we might 
think of as transpersonal and 

222
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:08,200
personal. 
Saturn links the energies of 

223
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:13,280
Neptune into our personal lives 
by making Neptune's resonance 

224
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,079
palpable. 
Neptune was actually discovered 

225
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:20,720
by astronomers and space 
scientists when it was conjunct 

226
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,480
with Saturn and this might be a 
little bit of a symbol of how 

227
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:29,360
Saturn can make Neptune real. 
Some of Neptune's keywords 

228
00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:32,960
include illusion, delusion, 
confusion, fog. 

229
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:39,720
It can be linked with a very 
subtle resonance and a vibratory

230
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,240
quality that can be really hard 
to put your finger on. 

231
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,560
It is said to manifest through 
our dreams and in medical 

232
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,040
astrology is linked with the 
pineal gland, which is the 

233
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,480
guardian of the liminal state, 
into the dream world. 

234
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:58,280
Saturn, by contrast, is linked 
to our skin and our bones and 

235
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,040
really brings us into the felt 
sense, into the materiality of 

236
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:08,680
our lives, into the obstruction 
sometimes of the density of our 

237
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,600
lives and the challenges that we
face. 

238
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,960
But the thing about challenge is
that it forces us to build 

239
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,760
strength. 
So when Saturn and Neptune come 

240
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:23,240
together, there are often 
experiences in our lives or in 

241
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:27,440
the world where it feels like 
there's a challenge to create a 

242
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:33,040
dream and make a dream reality. 
For many people, it may feel 

243
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:39,000
that the reality of the times is
exceedingly challenging and 

244
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,880
requires an immense amount of 
fortitude to survive, if 

245
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:48,360
survival is possible at all. 
Saturn and Neptune came together

246
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:55,600
in Aries this year, in 2026 on 
February 20th, and they came 

247
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,120
together at the very first 
degree of Aries, which is the 

248
00:18:59,120 --> 00:19:01,360
first degree of the Zodiac 
itself. 

249
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:10,480
And this is notable. 
I don't exactly know when the 

250
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,920
last time this conjunction 
happened at this degree. 

251
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:24,520
I've heard that it was in the 
BCE and I've heard that it was 

252
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:29,360
at a time when patriarchy was 
beginning. 

253
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,680
Now I'm just going to leave that
there because I don't have my 

254
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:39,160
references on hand. 
I That's all that I've heard and

255
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:45,680
I can't remember where or who. 
The fact that these two planets 

256
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,400
came together at the very first 
degree of the Zodiac is 

257
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,520
something that many astrologers 
have contemplated and marveled 

258
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,600
upon and have felt to be very 
significant. 

259
00:19:56,360 --> 00:20:00,280
The first degree of the Zodiac 
is a place where a new life 

260
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,360
emerges, a new beginning 
happens. 

261
00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:06,160
It's the very first contact of a
match with Flint. 

262
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,600
It is the very, very beginning 
of the spark of life. 

263
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,040
And Saturn and Neptune had been 
moving very close together for 

264
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,600
about 2 1/2 years prior to that,
through the last sign of the 

265
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:23,840
Zodiac through Pisces, and many 
people have felt that. 

266
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:30,320
There is a dying of certain 
elements of the world right now.

267
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:36,280
Certain worlds are dying, and 
certainly empires are 

268
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,680
dissolving, and particular 
dreams about what it means to be

269
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:45,200
a human and alive on planet 
Earth are changing rapidly. 

270
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:51,120
So 2026 begins a new dream with 
Saturn and Neptune in the very 

271
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:55,880
first degrees of Aries. 
But these two are in contact 

272
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,120
with Uranus in Gemini and Pluto 
in Aquarius. 

273
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:06,160
And Pluto is the slowest moving 
body of all of them, and 

274
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,240
therefore it's still in the 
very, very early degrees of 

275
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,400
Aquarius. 
And so as Uranus comes into 

276
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,840
Gemini, the fastest moving with 
the exception of Saturn, it is 

277
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:27,440
starting to catch up by orb of 
degree in aspect to a trine with

278
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:32,320
Pluto. 
And a trine is a 120° aspect and

279
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,560
it typically happens between 
planets and signs of the same 

280
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:40,280
element. 
So Uranus in Gemini is Uranus 

281
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,400
moving through an air sign, and 
Pluto in Aquarius is Pluto 

282
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,480
moving through an air sign. 
Gemini is mutable air or movable

283
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:53,440
air, and Aquarius is fixed air, 
but air talks to air. 

284
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:58,560
The breeze becomes a wind fairly
easily, and the outer planets in

285
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,680
this configuration can work very
fluidly with one another. 

286
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,080
In terms of their influences, 
they are not obstructing each 

287
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,280
other, they are strengthening 
one another's influence. 

288
00:22:12,120 --> 00:22:17,480
Gemini and Aquarius are sextile 
with Aries, and that's a 60° 

289
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,640
aspect. 
Aries is a fire sign, and fire 

290
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,280
and air are complementary 
energies. 

291
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,480
They're both considered to be 
young energies. 

292
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:30,480
They move up and out. 
The sextile aspect is a lending 

293
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,320
aspect. 
It's complementary. 

294
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:38,520
It's catalyzing and kind of like
good friends, you know, might 

295
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:42,280
egg each other on, especially 
fire and air friends might 

296
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,440
encourage each other to get 
bigger, bolder, louder, take 

297
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,920
more risks, try new things. 
That's kind of how these 

298
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:56,400
energies are working together. 
So Pluto in Aquarius is bringing

299
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:01,280
the energy of the underworld. 
This is Pluto symbolism into the

300
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,080
sign of the masses or the many. 
This is the symbolism of 

301
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:09,000
Aquarius. 
And Aquarius also is often 

302
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:16,200
associated with technology and 
in particular the elements of 

303
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:22,760
technology that can change mass 
consciousness or mass groups of 

304
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:30,680
people and the way that groups 
of people can adopt or embody a 

305
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:35,360
group mind. 
Pluto as a symbol of the 

306
00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:41,960
underworld invites us to explore
the ideas of dying, death, 

307
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:47,320
transformation or composting, 
and then regeneration, 

308
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,280
recomposition and ultimately 
rebirth. 

309
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:57,600
So Pluto process is meant to 
bring us through a deep 

310
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,680
underworld process. 
It's meant to help us break down

311
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,640
what is no longer in service of 
life. 

312
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:13,040
It's meant to help us compost. 
Compost is stinky stuff, but 

313
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:19,600
also very valuable and certainly
essential for regeneration and 

314
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:28,800
recomposition and rebirth. 
So the process that we can 

315
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:33,480
TuneIn with in the masses right 
now, in the collective of 

316
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:39,520
humanity, and also in the way 
that humanity is becoming 

317
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,920
LinkedIn different ways through 
technologies, through 

318
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,320
communication, whether that is 
linked through surveillance 

319
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,880
technologies or linked through 
the ways that we're sharing 

320
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,240
information with one another or 
both. 

321
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,680
And many other ways that we 
connect, including psychic 

322
00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,920
connection, including generating
group resonance in different 

323
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,120
ways and influencing each other 
in different ways. 

324
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:12,480
We are in for a time between 
2024 and 2043 where our 

325
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:17,000
consciousness, this is an 
Aquarian word as well, will be 

326
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,160
taken through a transformative 
journey. 

327
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:27,200
And it seems to be true, at 
least in my perspective and what

328
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,760
I've learned in my somewhat 
short life. 

329
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,440
An observation that it often 
takes the worst to bring out the

330
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,840
best, at least in the current 
iteration of humanity. 

331
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:44,400
It's my belief that we're born 
into our best, and it's my 

332
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,160
observation that many of us are 
taught to forget that fairly 

333
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:51,280
quickly, and the process of 
remembering can sometimes be 

334
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,640
brutal and deeply heartbreaking 
and full of tragedy. 

335
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:02,920
The forces of forgetting how we 
can be our best and how we are 

336
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:07,920
our best are forces that are 
deeply ancestral and long 

337
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:13,280
standing, ancient twisted karmas
that we're all a part of, that 

338
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,600
are thousands of years, if not 
10s of thousands of years deep 

339
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,960
and moving through our genetic 
codes and consciousness. 

340
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:27,040
And in this particular iteration
of of human experience really 

341
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,760
seems to be coiled around the 
forces of colonization which 

342
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:36,040
have displaced many of us. 
I think probably all of us, us 

343
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:41,400
being the humans at least on 
some level. 

344
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:46,840
So even for those who are lucky 
enough to still have ancestral 

345
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:51,880
memory and connection to the 
land and to their people who 

346
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:57,640
have come from that land, the 
land itself has been harmed at 

347
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,760
least through the inter 
permeation and interweaving of 

348
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:06,800
the elements of the water, of 
the air, and also the migration 

349
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:11,640
and the movement of peoples. 
There is not a soul on earth at 

350
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:16,840
this point who doesn't bear the 
trauma and tragedy of 

351
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:22,080
colonization in their imprints. 
And these traumas and tragedies 

352
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:28,560
served to dislocate us. 
They dismember us, and we forget

353
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,800
that we belong to one another, 
and we forget that we belong to 

354
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:36,640
the land and to the earth. 
And that creates a real division

355
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:40,760
in terms of how we're able to 
locate ourselves inside of 

356
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,640
community and place. 
And it really strengthens the 

357
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,680
worst parts of our egos. 
So it strengthens the ways that 

358
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:54,600
we can other each other, which 
is then what allows us to kill 

359
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,840
and torture and enslave one 
another. 

360
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:04,040
And that's really gotten us, in 
my opinion, pretty far away from

361
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:12,560
the best that we can be. 
So here we are in 2026, and the 

362
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:19,520
worst of human potential is 
certainly palpable inside of a 

363
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:26,280
global human experience. 
But maybe also so is the best. 

364
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,360
And it's my belief that we have 
begun our underworld process and

365
00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:36,360
underworld journey and there are
many who are here who we're 

366
00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:41,760
always remembering and always 
seeking remembering. 

367
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,160
And there are many who are 
awakening now to remember what 

368
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:51,640
they always already knew, which 
is connection. 

369
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,960
So we are interdependent and 
infinitely connected beings. 

370
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,560
We don't breathe without each 
other. 

371
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,320
We don't eat or drink or have 
any kind of consciousness 

372
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,840
without relationship in 
multidimensional, 

373
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:13,720
multidirectional ways. 
And that is what I believe the 

374
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,960
future is remembering. 
And where we are headed is 

375
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:21,640
towards reconnection, 
regeneration, reunification and 

376
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,400
remembering of human 
consciousness with the greater 

377
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,680
consciousness that we are part 
of, which includes the Earth and

378
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,360
all that the Earth is made of, 
because the Earth is also a body

379
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:37,360
in space. 
So we have Neptune, dreams, 

380
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:42,640
fantasy, imagination, illusion, 
delusion in the sign of Aries. 

381
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:48,080
And Aries as a fire sign 
represents a self, a singular 

382
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:53,480
self, a body, a me, a you. 
Aries wants to exist, and all of

383
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:57,600
us have Aries in our charts. 
And to exist on human in a human

384
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:02,760
life on Earth is dangerous and 
challenging, and it's a fight. 

385
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:05,680
And so Aries brings us to the 
fight. 

386
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:10,400
Aries is a warrior energy, but 
to exist in human body on earth 

387
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,240
is also potentially a fabulous 
and extremely enjoyable thing. 

388
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,920
And there are lots of pleasures 
here on earth and many things 

389
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,880
that we could desire. 
And so Aries is also a lover and

390
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,880
full of desire and full of 
passion. 

391
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,640
And this is about getting what 
we want as well. 

392
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,440
So we might think about Aries as
life impulse, the life impulse 

393
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:36,560
to live. 
And that life impulse to live is

394
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,200
getting catalyzed. 
It's getting the friendly and 

395
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,720
sometimes little bit of 
competitive or mischievous nudge

396
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,640
from Pluto in Aquarius and also 
now from Uranus in Gemini. 

397
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,720
Now Uranus has recently entered 
Gemini as I'm recording for you.

398
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,480
It hasn't even been a month 
since Uranus has come here now 

399
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,080
to stay, and it will be here for
seven years until 2033. 

400
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,880
I don't know if I said that 
Neptune will be in Aries until 

401
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:11,240
2038. 
Uranus is considered to be very 

402
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:15,600
resonant with Gemini as a sign. 
Some astrologers will say that 

403
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,120
Uranus is a higher octave of 
Mercury and Mercury is 

404
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,920
considered to be the ruler of 
Gemini. 

405
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:26,000
In our bodies. 
Gemini rules the nervous system.

406
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,480
It rules thinking and conversing
and language. 

407
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,880
But before it gets into 
communication, Gemini is an 

408
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:36,440
energy that has to do with 
meaning making and putting 

409
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,920
information and data together. 
And we pick up information and 

410
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,000
data through all of our sense 
organs. 

411
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,040
And then we tell stories about 
all of that information. 

412
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,240
And then we translate those 
stories into the ways that we 

413
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:54,840
act and behave and communicate 
through gesture and tonality and

414
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,800
facial expressions and of course
words. 

415
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,560
And all of this is Geminis 
terrain. 

416
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,200
And Mercury is the mover of all 
of this. 

417
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:08,320
So we might think about Mercury 
as a symbol of an electrical 

418
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,000
conduit. 
I love Mercury symbol. 

419
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:13,960
Mercury is a planetary 
psychopomp. 

420
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:19,280
They are a dual natured being 
and they travel betooks and 

421
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:23,280
between the world's they are 
equally welcome and at home in 

422
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,480
the lands of the living and the 
lands of the dead. 

423
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:30,720
And Mercury in this way travels 
in our consciousness between 

424
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:34,320
what is conscious and what is 
unconscious and in the ways that

425
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,520
we tell stories and make our 
life meanings out of stories. 

426
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:44,520
Mercury is the interlocutor. 
So it accesses information that 

427
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:49,080
is part of the deep past in 
terms of collective symbolism 

428
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:53,040
and story that resonates across 
time and space and through 

429
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,120
culture and society and 
families. 

430
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,880
And then it tells us stories 
about who we are and what we're 

431
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:03,360
experiencing. 
And it engages all of our senses

432
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:08,040
and sense making, world making 
and word making. 

433
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:15,760
So Uranus is a higher octave of 
Mercury, rules electrical 

434
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:20,720
impulses in a big way, and the 
awakening factor of 

435
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:26,560
consciousness when suddenly we 
are struck and where Mercury 

436
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:31,760
might help us put together data 
and tell stories and engage our 

437
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:37,840
senses and consciousness in kind
of multiple directions at once, 

438
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:44,200
Uranus invokes and inspires a 
kind of whole system synthesis. 

439
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,880
And sometimes you'll hear 
astrologers talk about Uranus as

440
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,680
the light bulb going on, the aha
moment, the Einstein moment. 

441
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,120
And ideally, we can work with 
Uranus in these ways to really 

442
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:02,160
awaken our consciousness and 
realize what thus far has been 

443
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:08,480
beyond the logic or rationale of
what we are able to perceive 

444
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,400
through our tired old stories. 
And you know what's next? 

445
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:19,960
So Uranus was in Taurus since 
2018, but after it's little 

446
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:24,400
brief entry into Gemini last 
year, now it has come into 

447
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:28,040
Gemini and it will be here for 
about 7 years now. 

448
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,840
Taurus is a very different 
energy than Gemini. 

449
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:37,280
It is a slow moving dense sign 
of the earth and it doesn't 

450
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:42,040
change very easily. 
But Gemini is a fast moving air 

451
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:47,000
sign and Gemini is mutable air, 
so it changes very easily and it

452
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,840
moves in multiple directions all
at the same time. 

453
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:55,000
As a symbol that relates with 
our nervous system and synapses 

454
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:59,960
and neurons and sense making and
storytelling, you can imagine 

455
00:34:59,960 --> 00:35:04,120
the multitudes and variability 
and possibilities that Gemini 

456
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,040
likes to play in. 
And so Uranus in this space is 

457
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,760
bringing this vibe to the 
collective as well as to 

458
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,480
wherever Gemini may be in your 
chart. 

459
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,640
So these are the outer planets 
and this is their situation in 

460
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:23,600
2026. 
They have come into a minor 

461
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:28,440
trine or a talent trine. 
Uranus and Pluto are trying with

462
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,560
one another. 
They are sextile with Neptune 

463
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,800
and Aries. 
All of their energies are 

464
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,320
flowing very quickly and 
rapidly. 

465
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,240
And Saturn is there this year as
well. 

466
00:35:38,240 --> 00:35:44,040
Saturn will start to separate 
fairly quickly and by 2028 we'll

467
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,160
move on and into Taurus. 
But for now, Saturn is there as 

468
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,680
well. 
And so there is of course, 

469
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,640
always a challenge with Saturn, 
but the challenge is to make 

470
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,000
things real. 
And it is also the support that 

471
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:01,560
we have is to make things real. 
So we can make a lot of strange 

472
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:07,280
things stranger than strange 
things real in 2026, as all of 

473
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:11,080
these outer planets talk so 
fluidly and quickly to one 

474
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:15,840
another. 
And I think that there are many 

475
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,000
new ideas, massive 
transformations in human 

476
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,280
consciousness, and bold new 
beginnings that really want to 

477
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,520
take shape. 
And Saturn would like to help us

478
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,720
move through the portal into the
manifestation and creation of it

479
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:30,560
all. 
And it will be labor. 

480
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,280
It will be work. 
And that is one of the most 

481
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:37,600
important things about 2026 is 
we have to be for real about it.

482
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,680
It's a good time to be serious 
in playful ways. 

483
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:47,240
Playful energy is definitely one
of the best ways to get things 

484
00:36:47,240 --> 00:36:53,400
moving right now. 
Playfulness is very exciting. 

485
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:59,280
It is attractive and I would say
it's a lot more alluring and 

486
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,880
potentially transformative than 
fear. 

487
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:08,120
And playfulness also deeply 
resonates in the fire and the 

488
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:13,160
air modalities and will be an 
even stronger influence later 

489
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:17,480
this year or not so much later 
because it's happening in the 

490
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,320
next few months. 
And this is part of why I'm 

491
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,640
recording for you. 
But this influence will continue

492
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,360
to strengthen and become even 
more palpable and bold and 

493
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:32,640
accessible as Venus and then 
Jupiter go into Leo and the 

494
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,840
eclipse axis changes out of 
Virgo and Pisces and goes into 

495
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:41,720
Leo and Aquarius. 
So I'll just say that the 

496
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:47,960
eclipses have been in the signs 
and the seasons of Pisces and 

497
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,480
Virgo for the last two years or 
so. 

498
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:55,960
I'm recording for you in May of 
2026 and we've had eclipses in 

499
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:59,480
Pisces and Virgo since September
of 2024. 

500
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:04,600
Eclipses tend to wobble between 
signs and so we'll continue to 

501
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:10,480
have eclipses in Virgo and 
Pisces until early in 2027. 

502
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:16,120
February of 2027, we get the 
last one, but I'm going to get 

503
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:17,280
there in a second. 
OK. 

504
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,920
So this is the groundwork. 
This is the the frame that we're

505
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,960
working inside of is these outer
planets. 

506
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:27,440
And now I want to talk to you 
about the seasons that are 

507
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:31,600
coming up and I'm going to talk 
about Gemini through Pisces 

508
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,800
season. 
And what I want to focus on are 

509
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,160
the stimulations or the 
activations of the outer 

510
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,520
planets. 
So there's a lot that's going on

511
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,720
in terms of mundane astrology 
that is other than this. 

512
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:48,440
And I did my best to break some 
of it down in the season ahead 

513
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:53,560
readings I do for each sign. 
So check out your mini readings,

514
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:59,120
your horoscope readings. 
But right now I just want to 

515
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,840
think about what the outer 
planets are kind of getting fed 

516
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,320
by when it comes to contact with
each other and contact with the 

517
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,560
inner planets. 
I'll also talk about the 

518
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:13,320
eclipses and then I'm going to 
get into thinking a little bit 

519
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,320
about the retrogrades and one 
other movement that feels pretty

520
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,240
important to talk about this 
year. 

521
00:39:21,240 --> 00:39:29,320
So on May 18th it is the cusp of
Gemini season and Mercury has 

522
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,720
just moved into Gemini and the 
Sun will move into Gemini in two

523
00:39:32,720 --> 00:39:33,880
days. 
On May 20th. 

524
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:38,120
As Mercury moves into Gemini and
then the Sun, they immediately 

525
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:42,280
come into contact with Uranus. 
After they come into contact 

526
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:46,800
with Uranus, they immediately go
on to sextile Saturn and Neptune

527
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:53,200
to square the nodal axis, the 
eclipse points and trine Pluto 

528
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:59,440
in Aquarius. 
So between basically today or 

529
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,200
yesterday, we've had the first 
contact of Mercury with Uranus. 

530
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:10,560
So May 17th and May 26th, 
Mercury and the Sun are 

531
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:15,120
activating this minor trying and
they're activating the 

532
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,560
configuration from the sign of 
Gemini. 

533
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:22,160
Mercury is at home in Gemini. 
So it is very strong there. 

534
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,720
It's very fast there. 
It's having a good time. 

535
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:31,960
And this is a lot of new 
connections, potentially. 

536
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:36,800
So again, this is a sign and 
energy that rules our neurons 

537
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,400
and nervous systems, our 
thoughts, our communications, 

538
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,760
and the ways that we put 
information and data together. 

539
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,000
And the world is changing, and 
so are you. 

540
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,920
And so the beginning of Gemini 
season might feel like you're 

541
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,840
being impressed by a whole lot 
of new possibilities. 

542
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:58,840
Now, as I said, we are at the 
midpoint between eclipses, and 

543
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,920
we had eclipses earlier this 
year in February and March, and 

544
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,160
we'll have eclipses again in 
August. 

545
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:09,800
And as the sun and Mercury come 
into contact by square with the 

546
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:15,560
nodal axis, Venus and Mars are 
also changing signs. 

547
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:20,640
Venus is moving into Cancer and 
Mars is moving into Taurus and 

548
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:24,640
they are coming into contact 
with the nodal axis and Venus is

549
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,840
squaring Neptune in Aries and 
Mars is moving towards a square 

550
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:33,760
with Pluto in Aquarius. 
Also within this period of time 

551
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,320
Venus will square Saturn a 
couple of days later. 

552
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:43,320
So we could even include up 
through the 28th with this kind 

553
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,840
of first blast of outer planet 
stimulation by the inner 

554
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:51,640
planets. 
And I feel like the eclipses are

555
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,640
important to bring in here 
because the eclipse axis is said

556
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:59,880
to drive evolutionary momentum. 
And there is a feeling of 

557
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,800
inevitability when we're working
with eclipse energy. 

558
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,240
And basically it's the things 
that are happening had to happen

559
00:42:08,240 --> 00:42:10,640
because of everything that has 
happened before. 

560
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,000
And so there might be, you know,
certain circumstances that we're

561
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,840
watching play out in the world 
and our hearts are breaking and 

562
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,920
we're wondering like, how is 
this possible? 

563
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:28,120
How could this be happening? 
And if, if we bring in a 

564
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:33,040
framework of what has happened 
in the past, then we can 

565
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,360
understand how it's happening. 
It's happening because of 

566
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:42,640
everything that has created it. 
So there is no world leader who 

567
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:47,840
has arisen in a vacuum. 
If there are world leaders out 

568
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,720
there and we look at them and we
say, Oh my God, they're so 

569
00:42:50,720 --> 00:42:52,880
terrible. 
How could anybody, you know, 

570
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,320
vote for them or allow them to 
stay in power? 

571
00:42:55,320 --> 00:43:01,800
Da, da, da. 
Just think of them as a pimple. 

572
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:09,240
Think of them as a zit, right? 
Like pimples emerge in the skin 

573
00:43:09,240 --> 00:43:12,400
because of deep toxins in the 
body that are pushing their way 

574
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:19,440
out to be expelled. 
And they are not entities in and

575
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,880
of themselves. 
They're created by something 

576
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:27,120
that is systemic. 
So what the eclipses kind of 

577
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:31,480
highlight and amplify is this 
feeling of inevitability that 

578
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,880
things are going the way they're
going because of everything that

579
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:35,880
has happened and everything that
has brought us here. 

580
00:43:36,720 --> 00:43:39,560
But the thing about eclipse 
energy is that it also heightens

581
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:43,120
our consciousness around that 
inevitability and pattern and 

582
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,120
sense making. 
And because of the outer planet 

583
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:49,800
configurations and because we're
working with Mercury right now 

584
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,520
in its domicile in Gemini and 
the Sun is there, we have a lot 

585
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:57,160
of consciousness and we're 
actually living in a time that 

586
00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,840
is full of information and it's 
full of people teaching each 

587
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:03,640
other. 
Gemini loves to give and receive

588
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:07,360
information and it's resonates 
with education. 

589
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:11,960
And Aquarius also is an energy 
that loves to disseminate 

590
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,280
information. 
So we are living in a time of 

591
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,600
mass disinformation, but we're 
also living in a time of mass 

592
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,840
coeducation. 
And there has always been 

593
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:28,400
misinformation. 
In my opinion, the Bible is the 

594
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,680
first published work of 
misinformation. 

595
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:38,000
It's a retelling of stories that
have been retold and retold and 

596
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,720
separated from their larger 
context and then continue to be 

597
00:44:41,720 --> 00:44:46,240
retold and misused for thousands
of years. 

598
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,680
So misinformation is nothing new
inside of human consciousness. 

599
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:55,160
Storytelling has always been 
part of how we form societies 

600
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,400
and we're living in a time when 
there is also a lot of 

601
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,720
collective education and re 
education and many people are 

602
00:45:02,720 --> 00:45:05,400
coming into consciousness in new
and different ways. 

603
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,400
And though things like social 
media and the Internet can be 

604
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,960
really disturbing and 
distracting for human 

605
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,680
consciousness in many ways, I 
don't think anything is purely 

606
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,400
bad or good. 
Nothing is a binary, and in many

607
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:23,080
ways, in my opinion, I think 
that these technologies of 

608
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:26,880
information and education have 
been profoundly liberating and 

609
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:31,600
awakening for many people and 
are serving a particular kind of

610
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:37,120
new coherence and ability to 
come together across differences

611
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:41,560
and distances that we couldn't 
previously transcend. 

612
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,640
Yes, they are heightening 
certain differences and 

613
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,960
distances, and they are 
amplifying certain kinds of 

614
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:53,000
misinformation. 
So nothing is a binary, but 

615
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,640
there are mass movements that 
are building, and these mass 

616
00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,920
movements have to do in many 
ways with awareness of how we 

617
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,840
got to where we are, and also 
with the consciousness that we 

618
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:09,320
can change things. 
And the idea that we can change 

619
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:14,360
something in some ways is a 
remembering of human potential 

620
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:19,000
because in our not so recent 
past, and also in the very 

621
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:23,400
recent past, many humans have 
thought we couldn't change 

622
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,600
anything. 
We thought this is just the way 

623
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,280
that things are, or this is the 
way that God made it, or this is

624
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,480
the way that the government says
it has to be. 

625
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,800
Or because you're this gender, 
you have to be this thing, or 

626
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,400
because the law says this thing,
then it is true. 

627
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:42,960
And though there have always 
been those who are rebellious 

628
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:51,040
and disobedient and don't 
believe certain things, we're 

629
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,640
also living in a time when more 
and more of us are rebellious 

630
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,960
and disobedient. 
And this is part of the energy 

631
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:01,360
of these outer planets. 
So good trouble is on the way, 

632
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,720
in my opinion. 
And I think that this is 

633
00:47:04,720 --> 00:47:09,800
definitely a time when new 
worlds are being built because 

634
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:13,680
new words are being spoken, so 
new wording, new worlding. 

635
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:18,640
We're telling different kinds of
stories about who we could be 

636
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,360
and what we could be. 
And the nodal potential, when we

637
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:26,880
tune in with that eclipse 
energy, is the potential to 

638
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,840
awaken to something and then to 
change course. 

639
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,080
And so just because things have 
happened in a certain way and it

640
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:36,840
brings us to a certain moment of
inevitability, it doesn't mean 

641
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,240
that they have to keep happening
in the same way. 

642
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,840
In fact, the inevitability might
be that we are ready for change.

643
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:45,560
Just a thought. 
Take it or leave it. 

644
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:51,720
So that's the last week or so of
May, and then we head into June 

645
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,640
and Mercury will move into 
Cancer, where Venus is as well, 

646
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,560
and it will square Neptune and 
Saturn. 

647
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:04,440
It will try in the North Node 
and sextile the South Node. 

648
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:09,680
Venus and Jupiter will come 
together around this time, and 

649
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:14,080
the nodal axis will square 
Uranus in Gemini. 

650
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,840
So I'm going to talk a little 
bit more about Venus and Jupiter

651
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:23,680
coming together and Mercury and 
Cancer later on. 

652
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,200
But I do want to presence them 
here. 

653
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:30,560
But we'll put a pin in it and 
come back. 

654
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:35,320
Let's focus on the nodes 
squaring Uranus. 

655
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:41,000
This is good mischief. 
This is good trouble 

656
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,920
potentially. 
And this is also a real 

657
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,200
activation of change in your 
personal life. 

658
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,920
You might think about the 
stretch of time between late 

659
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,960
2024, September of 2024 and the 
current moment. 

660
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:58,040
And if you are in the future 
already, remember these 

661
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:01,600
eclipses. 
Stretch into February of 2027 

662
00:49:02,720 --> 00:49:06,320
and contemplate the Virgo Pisces
axis in your chart or the 

663
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:09,280
mutable cross in your chart. 
If you don't know what any of 

664
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,840
that means, just think about how
things have been changing. 

665
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,440
And you might consider in 
particular themes that have to 

666
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,840
do with letting go of 
perfection. 

667
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:23,800
Kind of having different kinds 
of awareness about how you might

668
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,560
separate or divide your 
consciousness and your 

669
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:31,960
storytelling, and perhaps 
becoming more compassionate or 

670
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,120
accepting or imaginative or 
intuitive. 

671
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:39,040
This could be a period of time 
that has softened some things 

672
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,080
and in terms of softening things
that may have softened the 

673
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:44,720
order. 
It may have softened the hold in

674
00:49:44,720 --> 00:49:48,040
your material life and started 
to dissolve some things. 

675
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:54,400
It could feel like as things 
dissolve, they are becoming more

676
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:58,400
confusing. 
This word, as a friend reminded 

677
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,960
me recently, means to be with 
fusion. 

678
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:07,080
So lots of overlap in terms of 
many things being layered upon 

679
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:12,240
one another and in the 
complexification may be harsh or

680
00:50:12,240 --> 00:50:19,480
strict delineations of certain 
kinds of ideas or organizational

681
00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,200
strategies inside of your life 
or your consciousness are kind 

682
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:29,400
of falling away. 
Then Venus will move into Leo 

683
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,720
right around the Gemini New 
Moon, which is on the 14th of 

684
00:50:32,720 --> 00:50:37,080
June. 
And as Venus moves into Leo, it 

685
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:43,320
sextiles Uranus, trines Neptune 
and opposes Pluto. 

686
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:47,400
And that's between the 13th and 
the 17th of June. 

687
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:54,640
So Venus is a love nature and 
aesthetic quality, and Leo rules

688
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:58,200
the heart. 
And Venus in Leo really likes a 

689
00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:01,520
party. 
And we are in the middle of 

690
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:04,640
Gemini season. 
And it's also pride season, 

691
00:51:04,720 --> 00:51:09,320
happy pride out there. 
I'm just going to say that joy 

692
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:12,840
is one of the most contagious 
forms of resistance. 

693
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:17,200
And Tony Cade Bombara said we 
have to make the revolution 

694
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:22,080
irresistible. 
And I believe her, having 

695
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:27,760
experienced angry activists a 
lot in my life and really have, 

696
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:36,640
having felt the kind of palpable
fear and othering and anxiety 

697
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:42,320
that aggressive activism has. 
Which isn't to say there's not a

698
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,560
place for it, by the way, not 
saying that. 

699
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:49,680
I'm just going to say that we 
need joy, we need songs, we need

700
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:54,760
dances, we need art. 
And artists are so important, 

701
00:51:55,800 --> 00:52:00,120
which is why fascist and 
authoritarian regimes often try 

702
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:05,000
to control art very quickly 
because freedom of expression 

703
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:10,200
threatens homogeneity. 
So if you want a role in the 

704
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:14,000
revolution, express yourself and
express yourself from your 

705
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,560
heart. 
And especially with Venus and 

706
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:22,320
Leo during Gemini season, it's a
great time to do things that 

707
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:28,320
help people come together for 
heartful expression, like dance 

708
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:31,400
parties or karaoke or something 
like that. 

709
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:38,480
But give it a purpose, you know,
do things like fundraising for 

710
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:42,720
mutual aid or sharing 
information that maybe helps 

711
00:52:42,720 --> 00:52:46,760
people make the trouble or 
shifting perspective and 

712
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,760
educating and opening up 
possibilities. 

713
00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,040
And remember to invite people 
in. 

714
00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:59,040
We'll build momentum and we'll 
build resilience the more that 

715
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:03,200
people feel that they belong and
are loved and seen and 

716
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,320
celebrated inside of collective 
spaces. 

717
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:13,560
So though Leo can express itself
sometimes very dramatically and 

718
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:17,600
with a lot of fire, and 
especially in the opposition to 

719
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:22,080
Pluto, Venus opposite Pluto, I 
think there is a lot of energy 

720
00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:27,680
to stand up against what feels 
wrong and to push back against 

721
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,800
what feels like dominance and 
oppression. 

722
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:38,240
I would encourage all of us to 
see in each other what's good. 

723
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:42,160
Try to uplift the best 
potentials in yourself and in 

724
00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:47,760
others. 
And if you're being shown what's

725
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:51,480
not the best potential, don't 
mirror that in yourself. 

726
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:56,440
Do something else. 
Make the revolution 

727
00:53:56,440 --> 00:54:01,200
irresistible. 
All right, so then we'll move 

728
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:05,240
into Cancer season. 
And Cancer season begins on June

729
00:54:05,240 --> 00:54:07,400
21st. 
And as the Sun moves into 

730
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:09,960
Cancer, it aspects the Nodes 
right away. 

731
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:14,960
So it trines the North Node and 
sextiles the South Node, and 

732
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:18,640
then it moves into a square with
Neptune. 

733
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:22,600
And later on in Cancer season, 
it will move into a square with 

734
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:26,120
Saturn. 
But it's in the first few days, 

735
00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:30,640
the 21st to the 25th, that it 
aspects the nodes and squares 

736
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:36,840
Neptune and July 6th that will 
square Saturn. 

737
00:54:37,720 --> 00:54:45,080
Now July as we move towards July
really starts to activate the 

738
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:51,160
outer planet configuration. 
Mars will move into Gemini on 

739
00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:56,040
the 28th of June and just like 
Mercury and the Sun did in 

740
00:54:56,040 --> 00:55:00,160
Gemini season, as Mars moves 
into Gemini it comes into 

741
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:04,600
contacts with the nodes, it 
makes a conjunction with Uranus,

742
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:07,880
it sextiles Neptune and it tries
Pluto. 

743
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:11,560
And this is all between June 
28th and July 6th. 

744
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:18,480
During this time Jupiter will 
also move from Cancer into Leo, 

745
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:23,840
and then Jupiter will start to 
move into an opposition with 

746
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:30,160
Pluto that isn't exact until 
later on in July around the 

747
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:35,160
20th. 
And as Jupiter opposes Pluto, it

748
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:41,880
will simultaneously try Neptune 
and sextile Uranus because the 

749
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:44,840
outer planets are becoming 
tighter and tighter in their 

750
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:49,320
orbs of perfection in terms of 
their aspects with each other, 

751
00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:53,840
which up until this point have 
been close, but we haven't yet 

752
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:57,720
had them be exactly an aspect to
one another. 

753
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:05,120
So the first week or so of July 
and the last couple days of June

754
00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:10,880
are really powerful 
energetically. 

755
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:15,920
I will also say that on the 
29th, Mercury is stationing 

756
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,680
retrograde in Cancer and there's
a full Moon in Capricorn. 

757
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:23,320
And I'm going to come back to 
talk more about the Mercury 

758
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:24,840
retrograde as I mentioned 
before. 

759
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,760
But I just want to presence that
as Mars is squaring the nodes 

760
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:32,200
and Jupiter is entering Leo, 
Mercury is also stationing 

761
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:36,600
retrograde. 
And when a planet stations, it 

762
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:39,520
tends to be expressing itself 
most intensely. 

763
00:56:44,720 --> 00:56:47,880
All right, so Mars activates and
it heats things up. 

764
00:56:49,720 --> 00:56:54,000
It rules our action potential, 
and it really wants to take 

765
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:56,440
action. 
And what does it want to take 

766
00:56:56,440 --> 00:57:01,200
action for? 
It wants to take action to fight

767
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:05,360
flight. 
Fuck get what it wants. 

768
00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,880
Warriorship again. 
Strong theme for Mars as the 

769
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,360
planetary ruler of Aries. 
Passion. 

770
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,720
Strong theme, definitely as a 
planetary ruler of Aries in 

771
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:21,520
Scorpio. 
But Mars is in Gemini, and so 

772
00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:24,400
things can pop off in a lot of 
different directions. 

773
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,840
And this may be a time when 
things are popping off all over 

774
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:31,960
the place. 
And so many people have talked 

775
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:37,360
about, you know, the transits of
Uranus in Gemini and Pluto and 

776
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:43,440
Aquarius relating with times of 
war and civil war as well as 

777
00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:47,920
revolutions. 
And this is true. 

778
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:51,400
So the cycles of these planets 
in the science that they are in 

779
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:55,000
historically do correspond to 
these types of times and events.

780
00:57:56,640 --> 00:58:01,200
But because of the configuration
that we're seeing right now, 

781
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:05,160
it's also likely that whatever 
the events are won't be 

782
00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:09,520
concentrated in just one place, 
but we'll be in multiple places.

783
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:14,440
And it's also likely because of 
who's playing here, like what 

784
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:19,000
planetary actors have roles and 
what their roles are, that we 

785
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:26,040
might have all kinds of people 
joining in the situation. 

786
00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:32,240
And it's also likely that we 
probably can't predict what's 

787
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:36,360
going to happen. 
So these influences are 

788
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:38,480
unpredictable. 
That's part of their nature. 

789
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:48,800
And there was a meditation that 
I offered some weeks ago from 

790
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,640
Resma Menicum, who I believe is 
one of the great teachers of our

791
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:56,440
times and has done a lot to 
prepare many people for these 

792
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:58,440
times and to help us stay in 
practice. 

793
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:05,360
And he encouraged us to 
contemplate and repeat to 

794
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:09,760
ourselves and notice how we feel
and notice the kind of images 

795
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,760
that come up and the meaning 
making that we do and the 

796
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:16,480
behaviors that we feel ourselves
compelled for and the emotions 

797
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:20,640
and sensations that we're aware 
of and what we can imagine when 

798
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:24,280
we tell ourselves that these are
times that are full of peril and

799
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:27,520
full of possibility. 
And none of us know what's going

800
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:29,400
to happen. 
And we can't control it and we 

801
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,400
can't plan for it. 
And the best any of us can do is

802
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:36,680
show up with our best selves. 
And I believe that to be true. 

803
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:42,000
I said in your season ahead 
horoscopes multiple times to 

804
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:44,520
multiple signs. 
The worst thing you can do right

805
00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:47,520
now is nothing. 
The absolute worst thing you can

806
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:50,240
do right now is stay at home 
feeling scared about what's 

807
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:51,400
happening out there in the 
world. 

808
00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:54,720
The best thing you can do right 
now is get engaged somehow. 

809
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,920
And the absolute best thing that
you can do is get engaged in 

810
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:01,880
ways that resonate with your 
heart and with your love and 

811
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:07,720
help you connect with meaningful
energies. 

812
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,640
Whatever is meaningful for you, 
you know, make the meetings that

813
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,160
are most meaningful for you. 
And act for what you care about 

814
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:16,640
and act for what you want to 
see, survive and thrive. 

815
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:21,360
And act in ways that your future
self will feel proud of, right? 

816
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:23,080
Show up for your best 
potentials. 

817
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,440
And Jupiter is moving into Leo 
at this time. 

818
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:29,480
And wherever Jupiter is, it 
magnifies and expands our 

819
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,960
possibilities and potentials, 
and it asks us to show up with 

820
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:36,840
our biggest gifts. 
Leo again, is the sign of the 

821
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:39,400
heart. 
And Venus is here at this time 

822
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:41,680
as well. 
And so we have big heart 

823
01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:44,560
enlargement around this time. 
Huge love. 

824
01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:50,640
Leo is also playful and as I 
said, already loves a party. 

825
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,880
Now we are in Cancer season. 
It's not Gemini season anymore, 

826
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:58,280
but Cancer loves a gathering and
loves to feed people and loves 

827
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:01,160
to help people feel that they 
belong and that they have what 

828
01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:03,800
they need. 
So this is a very powerful time 

829
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:08,240
to extend love, to extend 
solidarity, and to feel into 

830
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:13,440
yourself the ways that you can 
practice your own belonging. 

831
01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:17,880
Include yourself. 
You know, don't don't speak to 

832
01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:23,160
yourself in ways that belittle 
yourself or expect perfection. 

833
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,360
There's no such thing. 
Show up with your best self. 

834
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:28,040
You know, you're going to make 
mistakes. 

835
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:31,040
You don't know how to do 
everything and you certainly 

836
01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:34,680
don't do anything perfectly, 
probably because you're a human 

837
01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:38,120
being and you're not meant to. 
But that's why we all need each 

838
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:42,360
other, so we can fill in each 
other's gaps and we can help one

839
01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:45,800
another, play to our strengths 
and also support each other in 

840
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,920
the places where we are a little
more weak or fragile. 

841
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:52,400
And in all of those places, we 
want to uplift and celebrate our

842
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:56,120
potential, as well as helping 
each other be accountable to 

843
01:01:56,720 --> 01:02:03,000
what we don't see the impact 
that we might be unaware of and 

844
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:07,480
where we can honestly improve. 
So Jupiter is an energy that 

845
01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:10,360
really wants us to rise to our 
best occasion. 

846
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:14,000
And that means to be in our own 
integrity and to practice 

847
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:17,760
ethical behavior. 
And to be ethical is to be 

848
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:22,240
honest, in my opinion, and to 
really be able to feel into our 

849
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:29,160
love and to feel into the truth 
of how we know we're acting 

850
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:31,200
right. 
You know, you know when you're 

851
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,200
acting from your heart. 
You know when you can feel proud

852
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:37,240
of yourself and it is easier and
easier and easier to know that 

853
01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:43,440
the more you love yourself. 
So as we move into the month of 

854
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:47,560
July, it is a very, very 
powerful time astrologically and

855
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:50,280
a lot is happening. 
A lot is happening. 

856
01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:54,520
Mars and Jupiter especially are 
activating this outer planet 

857
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:58,240
configuration and things will 
probably be popping off all over

858
01:02:58,240 --> 01:03:00,160
the place. 
And things could include 

859
01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:03,680
environmental things and climate
things. 

860
01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:08,080
This is a lot of energy in the 
air and fire elements. 

861
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:11,000
Mercury is also stationing 
retrograde in a water sign. 

862
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:16,120
It's a full moon in Capricorn, a
sign of very deep Earth and 

863
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:19,080
structures. 
But things could also be popping

864
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:23,080
off in the human realms in terms
of events and happenings and 

865
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:27,680
movements and revolutions and 
revelations and all kinds of 

866
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,360
things. 
So the best thing that you can 

867
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:33,080
do is to get engaged with what 
you care about the most. 

868
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:39,200
The worst thing that you can do 
is keep yourself small and stuck

869
01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:43,280
and not moving. 
So don't do that. 

870
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:49,000
Neptune stations retrograde on 
July 7th. 

871
01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:55,520
This is just around the time the
Sun squares Saturn, and AS the 

872
01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:58,400
outer planets go retrograde, 
which they do for several months

873
01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:00,320
a year, their energies 
intensify. 

874
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:06,080
So Neptune in Aries is wanting 
us to dream a new dream of what 

875
01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:10,160
it means to exist. 
And the dream of human existence

876
01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:12,840
has always been a dream, right? 
There is this feeling of 

877
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:18,320
unreality inside the reality and
the very fragile, ephemeral 

878
01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:21,920
nature of human existence that 
none of us can really explain. 

879
01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:26,600
And so unreality may start to 
feel a little stronger around 

880
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,400
this time. 
There may be an uncanniness to 

881
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:32,360
things. 
But I will say that I think for 

882
01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:35,320
many people this is also very 
deeply a time of spiritual 

883
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:40,200
awakening and spiritual 
warriorship and an initiation 

884
01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:43,240
into a new consciousness and a 
new dream. 

885
01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:46,960
Venus moves into Virgo right 
around that time as well. 

886
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:53,520
July 9th and then Venus will 
square the nodes and Venus will 

887
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,120
square Uranus. 
Excuse me? 

888
01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:59,360
Venus will be conjunct with the 
South node and oppose the North 

889
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:03,080
Node N node and then square 
Uranus. 

890
01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:07,520
This is coming as Mercury forms 
its retrograde conjunction with 

891
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:11,440
the Sun. 
It's Kazimi on July 12th, and 

892
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,000
it's right before a Cancer New 
Moon. 

893
01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:16,360
Virgo and Cancer are 
complementary energies to each 

894
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:17,720
other. 
I will talk more about the 

895
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:21,720
Mercury retrograde soon, but I 
will also say that this is a 

896
01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:26,680
powerful period of change and 
coinciding with this kind of 

897
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:30,400
deepening spiritual awakening 
influence of Neptune. 

898
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:34,760
Venus in Virgo is a influence 
that really asks us to feel into

899
01:05:34,760 --> 01:05:38,640
our devotion. 
It's big devotional energy. 

900
01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:43,360
And so if you feel yourself 
aligned with a 'cause that is 

901
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:46,600
bigger than you and really 
wanting to devote yourself to 

902
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,960
that 'cause, this would be a 
very powerful time to meditate 

903
01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:52,480
on it. 
This has been a practice that 

904
01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:57,200
I've been really trying to focus
on for some time now, is 

905
01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:02,440
imagining what I'm here for 
that's far beyond me, imagining 

906
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:06,240
what I can send love to 500 
years from now. 

907
01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:10,600
And it's deeply motivating and 
deeply inspiring to think about 

908
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:14,000
the ways that I will be 
completely forgotten, but may 

909
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:19,720
also subtly influence energies, 
hopefully in very good ways. 

910
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:24,000
So allow yourself to be creative
and imaginative, but again, take

911
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:29,200
action for that which you most 
adore and want to see thrive and

912
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,000
flourish and devote yourself to 
it. 

913
01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:38,720
As we get into the middle of 
July, the outer planets begin to

914
01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:40,960
perfect their aspects with each 
other. 

915
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:50,840
So between the 15th of July and 
the 24th of July, we have Uranus

916
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:54,440
perfecting its sextile with 
Neptune and trine with Pluto. 

917
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:59,120
That's the 15th to the 17th, and
then Pluto and Neptune perfect 

918
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:04,240
their sextile around July 24th. 
Now these aspects will go in and

919
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:06,880
out of perfection over the next 
several years, so this isn't the

920
01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:12,760
only time these are happening. 
The three of these planets will 

921
01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:18,480
be in this aspect pattern by 
sign until 2033 when Uranus 

922
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:22,360
leaves Gemini. 
By orb, I believe it's until 

923
01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:25,640
2030 by like a 10° orb of 
influence. 

924
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:31,600
So we have some years of really 
working with these powerful 

925
01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:35,240
agents of change. 
The sextile between Neptune and 

926
01:07:35,240 --> 01:07:42,040
Pluto has been an ongoing aspect
pattern since the 1940s, and it 

927
01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:44,480
will continue through the 20 
forties. 

928
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:47,560
So we'll get the end of that 
aspect pattern. 

929
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:49,960
They'll start to separate from 
each other in 2042. 

930
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:57,080
Make of that what you will. 
But this is a long time, right? 

931
01:07:57,080 --> 01:08:04,320
This is a a century in the 
making of the divine being of 

932
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:11,520
dreams and imagination and 
delusion working in a very 

933
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:15,080
catalyzing, very lending 
influence with the divine being 

934
01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:18,399
of death, dying, transformation 
and regeneration. 

935
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:24,000
The 1940s were the beginning of 
the nuclear age, just as one 

936
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:29,000
possible location for that time.
And certainly weapons of mass 

937
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:33,880
destruction have been a main 
theme of this particular cycle. 

938
01:08:34,399 --> 01:08:36,399
But that's not the only cycle 
that's been at work. 

939
01:08:36,399 --> 01:08:38,600
So make the meanings that are 
meaningful for you. 

940
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:44,359
The end of July though is a 
really intense time in terms of 

941
01:08:44,359 --> 01:08:49,120
outer planet contacts. 
Jupiter will also be making its 

942
01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:53,680
contact with the outer planets 
between July 20th and 22nd, 

943
01:08:54,399 --> 01:08:59,680
trying with Neptune in Aries, 
opposing Pluto in Aquarius and 

944
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:05,160
sextile Uranus in Gemini. 
Right before we move into Leo 

945
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:12,720
season and the Sun moves into 
Leo and then immediately starts 

946
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:17,240
to oppose Pluto and Aquarius and
trying Neptune and sextile 

947
01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:22,200
Uranus and then forms a 
conjunction with Jupiter which 

948
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:27,319
perfects on July 29th, which is 
also a Full Moon in Aquarius. 

949
01:09:27,359 --> 01:09:32,120
And therefore the Moon is 
conjunct with Pluto and trying 

950
01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:33,960
with Uranus and sextile with 
Neptune. 

951
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:40,880
So July is pretty intense in 
terms of outer planet energies 

952
01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:46,479
being amplified, activated by 
Mars and enlarged by Jupiter, 

953
01:09:47,359 --> 01:09:52,000
and then really brought into a 
lot of consciousness and focus 

954
01:09:52,399 --> 01:09:57,080
by the Sun and the Moon as we 
approach the Full Moon on July 

955
01:09:57,080 --> 01:10:01,960
29th. 
This is also when the nodes, the

956
01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:05,560
eclipse points will move into 
Aquarius and Leo. 

957
01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:09,520
So the nodal axis travels 
backwards and eclipses get a 

958
01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:13,120
little bit earlier every year 
and they are moving out of Virgo

959
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:18,080
and Pisces and into Leo and 
Aquarius, S node and Leo N node 

960
01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:21,880
and Aquarius. 
And we'll have eclipses in Leo 

961
01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:27,920
and Aquarius seasons through the
early months of 2028. 

962
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:34,080
We had our first solar eclipse 
in Aquarius February 17th of 

963
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:37,320
2026. 
You might think about that time 

964
01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:42,240
and where Aquarius is in your 
chart or what you see Aquarius 

965
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:45,040
reflecting in in a collective 
sense. 

966
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:50,920
Again, the people, information 
consciousness and the North Node

967
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:57,440
inevitability things happening. 
And then this is also when 

968
01:10:57,440 --> 01:11:01,160
Saturn is stationing retrograde.
So between the 26th and the 

969
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:06,440
29th, pretty powerful. 
I mean before that. 

970
01:11:06,440 --> 01:11:12,760
So from the 15th of July through
the 29th, all the outer planets 

971
01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:16,680
perfecting their aspects, 
Jupiter coming into the mix, 

972
01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:20,240
Saturn stationing retrograde, 
the nodes moving into Aquarius 

973
01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:24,320
and Leo, the Sun aspect in the 
outer planets, and then a sun, 

974
01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:26,520
Jupiter, Kazemi or conjunction 
on the full moon. 

975
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:34,800
It won't be boring. 
At least there's that. 

976
01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:42,880
I think that's a curse. 
I, I believe that's a curse, 

977
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:44,400
right? 
I, I feel like I heard that 

978
01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:47,240
somewhere. 
It's like, may you live in 

979
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,120
interesting times. 
This is like a hex or something.

980
01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:54,560
And here we are what some people
might call the end of the Kali 

981
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:58,800
Yuga or the age of mediocrity 
and suffering really going out 

982
01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:02,560
with a bang. 
But hopefully the age is 

983
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:09,120
changing. 
And again, in my opinion, it 

984
01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:10,760
takes the worst to bring out the
best. 

985
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:17,280
And this is a time of heightened
polarities, really heightened 

986
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:20,480
polarities. 
And we will probably be seeing 

987
01:12:20,480 --> 01:12:24,840
that The influences that we're 
working with are definitely 

988
01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:29,360
influences that tell stories of 
intensifying authoritarianism 

989
01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:33,440
and fascism and dominance. 
But they are also stories that 

990
01:12:33,440 --> 01:12:41,120
tell of wild, wily humor, 
mischievous tactics and 

991
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:51,480
strategies, collective rise of 
power, labor strikes, walk outs,

992
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:55,840
global solidarity and evolution 
and revolution. 

993
01:12:57,200 --> 01:13:03,680
So again, the best thing that 
any of us can do is rise to the 

994
01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:06,680
occasion of our best and really 
give what we have. 

995
01:13:07,480 --> 01:13:12,360
And Jupiter in Leo as it comes 
into the heart of the Sun for 

996
01:13:12,360 --> 01:13:16,320
this full Moon in Aquarius, 
really, in my opinion, wants to 

997
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:21,240
remind us that the best that any
of us have to give is the thing 

998
01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:24,280
that feels the most joyful, 
authentically joyful. 

999
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:29,720
And So what makes your heart 
swell and feel really happy? 

1000
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:33,080
What gives you the feeling of 
being the most free? 

1001
01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:37,720
What allows you to feel the 
deepest, most expansive sense of

1002
01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:40,080
belonging? 
When do you feel the most 

1003
01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:43,560
celebratory and in love with the
world? 

1004
01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:47,840
Think about the activities and 
the times and the ways of being 

1005
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:49,280
that have allowed you to feel 
like that. 

1006
01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:53,160
And then try to do those things 
and try to increase the 

1007
01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:55,120
possibility that others could do
them with you. 

1008
01:13:57,840 --> 01:14:01,800
When we move into the month of 
August, Mercury will move into 

1009
01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:03,960
Leo and Venus will move into 
Libra. 

1010
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:07,080
And then they'll start to aspect
all the outer planets. 

1011
01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:09,320
So they'll do all the things 
right? 

1012
01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:10,680
I don't need to keep repeating 
them. 

1013
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:16,000
And Mercury will be sextile with
Venus on the 13th of August, and

1014
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:21,600
they'll be aspecting the outer 
planets between August 9th and 

1015
01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:25,080
21st together. 
Ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, 

1016
01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:29,840
ping one after the other. 
And this is also the time when 

1017
01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:34,280
Mars will move into Cancer after
coming into contact with the 

1018
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:38,680
nodes in the very late degrees 
now of Leon Aquarius, Mars will 

1019
01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:42,680
try in the North node and 
sextile the South node as it 

1020
01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:46,080
leaves Gemini and then it will 
move into Cancer and move 

1021
01:14:46,080 --> 01:14:50,280
towards a square with Neptune 
which perfects on the 17th. 

1022
01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:53,720
And then in between all that, we
also have an eclipse. 

1023
01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:56,480
So we'll have a solar eclipse in
Leo. 

1024
01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:00,520
So I mentioned that we had the 
first solar eclipse in the 

1025
01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:03,840
Aquarius Leo axis back in 
February on February 17th. 

1026
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:07,400
Now we have a solar eclipse in 
Leo on August 12th. 

1027
01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:12,760
Check out the Leo Aquarius axis 
in your chart and think about 

1028
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:15,200
the houses or any placements 
that you have there. 

1029
01:15:15,880 --> 01:15:19,160
Eclipses will happen here until 
January of 2028. 

1030
01:15:20,440 --> 01:15:24,240
So again, eclipses, the force of
inevitability. 

1031
01:15:24,480 --> 01:15:28,920
Where the North Node is in 
Aquarius is a place that we're 

1032
01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:31,200
moving towards. 
Where the South Node is, is 

1033
01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:32,760
where everything has already 
happened. 

1034
01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:36,680
And we are being encouraged to 
learn and also to let go. 

1035
01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:41,320
And so in the Leo parts of your 
chart, you might think about how

1036
01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:44,800
you can let go. 
And with Leo, what do we want to

1037
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:49,760
let go of ego? 
We want to let go of arrogance, 

1038
01:15:50,120 --> 01:15:54,560
we want to let go of showboating
and false performativity. 

1039
01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:58,160
And with the North Node and 
Aquarius, what we want to move 

1040
01:15:58,160 --> 01:16:02,840
towards is solidarity and 
collectivism and really being 

1041
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:06,280
here as the water bearers. 
That's Aquarius. 

1042
01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:11,640
Aquarius bears the water right, 
and the place in our bodies that

1043
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:16,320
Aquarius rules includes the 
connective tissues, which move 

1044
01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:20,040
water throughout our bodies and 
allow us to be mobile and facile

1045
01:16:20,040 --> 01:16:23,840
and also connected. 
And to be water bearers means 

1046
01:16:23,840 --> 01:16:27,960
that we carry the kinds of 
intelligence that allow us to be

1047
01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:31,000
connected and to really feel our
belonging together. 

1048
01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:38,320
So on a collective level, let's 
see if we can realize this as a 

1049
01:16:39,440 --> 01:16:41,920
mass human consciousness. 
What would it look like for 

1050
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:45,920
humanity, like the human 
consciousness, to let go of its 

1051
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:51,400
ego, to let go of its supremacy,
to let go of its dominion over 

1052
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:55,680
itself and the life that it is 
part of, and to really move 

1053
01:16:55,680 --> 01:16:58,640
towards solidarity with the life
that it is part of? 

1054
01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:05,320
We don't breathe or eat or drink
without all the other life on 

1055
01:17:05,320 --> 01:17:09,000
Earth, and human supremacy 
really has got to go. 

1056
01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:12,400
It's not a good look for us. 
It doesn't help us out when it 

1057
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:15,960
comes to what would make us 
probably the happiest and bring 

1058
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:21,440
forward our best. 
Then we enter Virgo season, and 

1059
01:17:21,480 --> 01:17:26,440
as the Sun and then Mercury pass
from Leo into Virgo, they will 

1060
01:17:26,440 --> 01:17:29,040
contact the nodes because again,
the nodes move backwards. 

1061
01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:33,080
So they moved from very early 
Virgo Pisces into very late Leo 

1062
01:17:33,080 --> 01:17:36,520
Aquarius. 
And the Sun will be conjunct 

1063
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:39,880
with the South Node and opposing
the North Node the same day that

1064
01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:41,840
Virgo season begins. 
That's August 22nd. 

1065
01:17:41,840 --> 01:17:45,320
And then Mercury will follow 
three days later on the 25th. 

1066
01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:50,600
And then Mercury will meet up 
with the Sun for a solar 

1067
01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:55,000
conjunction on the day of the 
full Moon in Virgo. 

1068
01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:59,920
And Mercury's inferior 
conjunction was pretty close to 

1069
01:17:59,920 --> 01:18:03,440
the new Moon in Cancer. 
The inferior conjunction happens

1070
01:18:03,440 --> 01:18:07,680
when Mercury is retrograde and 
the superior conjunction happens

1071
01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:11,200
when Mercury is direct. 
And so there's some kind of 

1072
01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:15,240
process here underway of 
bringing something forward into 

1073
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:18,520
consciousness from a feeling 
tone Cancer from the inner body 

1074
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:23,520
into a place where we can be 
practically applying and 

1075
01:18:23,520 --> 01:18:26,480
changing things in the material 
realm, which is Virgo. 

1076
01:18:28,480 --> 01:18:31,640
All again talk about the Mercury
retrograde in just a little bit 

1077
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:36,160
now, but this is the day of the 
lunar eclipse in full moon in 

1078
01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:41,320
Pisces on August 27th. 
And this is the second to last 

1079
01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:42,960
eclipse we're going to have in 
this axis. 

1080
01:18:42,960 --> 01:18:48,040
So we'll get another one or the 
last one in February of 2027. 

1081
01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:52,880
So August 27th, full moon, lunar
eclipse. 

1082
01:18:53,280 --> 01:18:57,600
And the full moon is amplified 
by the eclipse. 

1083
01:18:57,600 --> 01:19:02,680
Eclipses make lunation stronger.
They increase the power of the 

1084
01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:05,240
tides. 
And this is a full moon that's 

1085
01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:08,440
also square with Uranus in 
Gemini. 

1086
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:13,280
So really big change energy. 
Pisces, again, is a mutable 

1087
01:19:13,280 --> 01:19:16,200
sign. 
It's a movable energy and it's a

1088
01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:19,160
water energy. 
So this is mutable, movable 

1089
01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:22,160
feelings. 
And Pisces expresses a 

1090
01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:24,600
collective feeling. 
So the feelings that pass 

1091
01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:27,920
between us here as cells in the 
body of Earth. 

1092
01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:32,400
And again, Uranus is in Gemini. 
Insight awakening. 

1093
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:34,920
Do something different. 
Let's change it up. 

1094
01:19:38,440 --> 01:19:42,920
What has been asking to change 
in your life since September of 

1095
01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:45,360
2024? 
And what do you notice in the 

1096
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:49,240
world has been changing again, 
moving towards something that 

1097
01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:53,760
feels kind of more dispersed, 
more dissolve, more imaginative,

1098
01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,720
more intuitive, potentially more
spiritual. 

1099
01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:02,400
Boundaries are softening with 
Pisces. 

1100
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:08,680
And the full moon might amplify 
emotionality, but Mercury is 

1101
01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:13,200
also conjunct with the sun that 
day, and Mercury in the heart of

1102
01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:18,040
the sun amplifies practicality. 
So there could be some pretty 

1103
01:20:18,040 --> 01:20:22,800
big breakthroughs here around 
intuition and intelligence 

1104
01:20:23,480 --> 01:20:29,560
guiding action. 
Worst thing any of us can do is 

1105
01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:32,520
nothing, staying small and 
staying afraid. 

1106
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:36,600
The best thing any of us can do 
is TuneIn with our best selves 

1107
01:20:36,720 --> 01:20:43,560
and Pisces as an energy and 
Virgo as an energy anchor us 

1108
01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:47,480
into the devotional access. 
So the best thing that any of us

1109
01:20:47,480 --> 01:20:49,400
can do is bring our best selves 
forward. 

1110
01:20:50,080 --> 01:20:54,880
What are you devoted to? 
What is the larger love that you

1111
01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:59,040
are in service to anchor your 
energies and intentions that 

1112
01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:00,680
way. 
Don't worry about being perfect 

1113
01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:03,200
or getting it right or knowing 
what you're doing even. 

1114
01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:10,080
Just do your best. 
All right, so then when we move 

1115
01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:14,280
into the month of September, 
Venus will move into Libra as of

1116
01:21:14,280 --> 01:21:23,120
August 31st, and Mercury moves 
into Libra about a week and a 

1117
01:21:23,120 --> 01:21:31,640
half later on September 10th. 
Mars also is in Cancer at this 

1118
01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:34,680
point and is moving towards the 
square with Saturn. 

1119
01:21:37,440 --> 01:21:40,840
And then on the day of the new 
moon, the Virgo New Moon, Venus 

1120
01:21:40,840 --> 01:21:45,760
will move into Scorpio. 
I think I said the wrong thing a

1121
01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:50,000
minute ago. 
I did. 

1122
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:52,880
I said the wrong thing. 
Venus has already moved into 

1123
01:21:52,880 --> 01:21:54,680
Libra. 
Pardon me, I told you that 

1124
01:21:54,680 --> 01:21:58,440
already on August 6th Mercury 
and Venus were moving together 

1125
01:21:58,640 --> 01:22:02,600
in Leo and Libra. 
What happens on August 31st is 

1126
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:05,800
that Venus starts its pre 
retrograde shadow. 

1127
01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:10,600
Venus will have a retrograde 
this year, so I'm going to get 

1128
01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:12,360
to that in a minute. 
When I talk about Mercury's 

1129
01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:15,880
retrograde, I apologize for any 
confusion there, but Venus 

1130
01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:20,280
enters Scorpio on September 
10th, and Scorpio is the sign it

1131
01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:24,920
will station retrograde in. 
So Venus moves into Scorpio, 

1132
01:22:24,920 --> 01:22:28,440
Mercury moves into Libra, and 
Uranus also stations retrograde 

1133
01:22:28,440 --> 01:22:30,640
the day of the new Moon. 
We've got a lot of things going 

1134
01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:34,200
on over the course of the next 
several months, coinciding with 

1135
01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:35,920
new nations. 
It's pretty interesting. 

1136
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:40,720
New moons and full moons are 
definitely times of kind of like

1137
01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:42,640
peak consciousness in certain 
ways. 

1138
01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:48,920
So we'll see what this New Moon 
is seeding and also helping us 

1139
01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:52,040
closeout in terms of cycles 
closing and beginning at the new

1140
01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:56,200
moon again, especially for the 
outer planets, when they go 

1141
01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:58,400
retrograde, their influences 
intensify. 

1142
01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:02,680
So Uranus is stationing 
retrograde, It is in a strong 

1143
01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:05,160
sextile with Neptune and trine 
with Pluto. 

1144
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:11,560
Neptune and Pluto again perfect 
a sextile with each other around

1145
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:16,880
the 15th of September. 
And so as you're in a stations 

1146
01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:23,080
retrograde, there will probably 
be all kinds of things popping 

1147
01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:26,840
off. 
But the retrograde can also be a

1148
01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:31,320
time when what has been 
happening in more kind of like 

1149
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:36,480
fast moving outward external 
ways then begins to deepen and 

1150
01:23:36,480 --> 01:23:38,920
integrate or intensify 
internally. 

1151
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:42,280
So we'll see what that's all 
about. 

1152
01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:47,640
And that brings me to basically 
the end of Virgo season, which 

1153
01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:51,320
is pretty much where I'm going 
to stop for now. 

1154
01:23:51,960 --> 01:23:55,560
But things will continue and 
they'll continue in a big way 

1155
01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:59,160
with the retrogrades of Mercury 
and Venus. 

1156
01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:06,040
So I'll talk about that next. 
Got to keep sipping water. 

1157
01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:10,560
And that's one of the lessons of
both of them, especially Mercury

1158
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:14,480
this year. 
So even though we have all this 

1159
01:24:14,480 --> 01:24:19,800
energy in fire and air, all 
three of Mercury's retrogrades 

1160
01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:23,080
in 2026 are in the water 
element. 

1161
01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:27,680
And I think that this is one of 
the most interesting kinds of 

1162
01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:31,680
things about the astrological 
pattern this year is that the 

1163
01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:34,840
retrogrades are asking us again 
and again to come back to water.

1164
01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:38,440
So fire and air energies move up
and out. 

1165
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:43,240
They talk about the domain of 
thought and communication and 

1166
01:24:43,240 --> 01:24:47,400
ideas and technology, 
inspiration, activation, 

1167
01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:51,080
etcetera. 
There's a lot of accelerated 

1168
01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:55,760
momentum in all this fire and 
air, but water moves us down and

1169
01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:59,960
in, and water is a technology of
communion and coherence. 

1170
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:03,520
It bonds things together. 
That is its power. 

1171
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:10,160
And mercury is consciousness, 
right? 

1172
01:25:10,160 --> 01:25:13,080
What are we bringing attention 
to again? 

1173
01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:16,520
It is a storyteller and it moves
betwixt and between the world's,

1174
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:20,640
between what's unconscious and 
what is conscious, and it helps 

1175
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:24,800
us bring new language, new words
and therefore new worlds into 

1176
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:28,520
our awareness. 
And so this constant dipping 

1177
01:25:28,520 --> 01:25:33,560
back in and retrograding in 
water, for me feels like 

1178
01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:37,760
remembering Mercury retrograde 
periods or any planetary 

1179
01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:42,560
retrograde periods are supported
by practicing RE prefixing. 

1180
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:45,720
Retrogrades are nothing to be 
fearful of. 

1181
01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:48,240
I think there's something to 
actually be celebrated and 

1182
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:51,880
worked consciously with. 
Every time is a good time if you

1183
01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:54,160
know what the time is good for. 
And not every time is a good 

1184
01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:56,480
time for moving forward, as if 
you know what's going on. 

1185
01:25:57,200 --> 01:26:00,000
And retrograde periods, 
especially Mercury retrograde 

1186
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:04,800
periods, are great times for 
reflecting, for remembering, for

1187
01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:09,680
remaining, for returning, for 
rethinking, for retreating, for 

1188
01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:14,880
resting. 
These are periods of time when 

1189
01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:19,000
we might feel more sense of 
unknown. 

1190
01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:22,640
And so again, the consciousness 
function or the cognitive 

1191
01:26:22,640 --> 01:26:26,240
function, the ability to put 
information together is going 

1192
01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:29,080
backwards. 
And Mercury is known as being a 

1193
01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:31,760
trickster. 
And one of the one of my 

1194
01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:35,200
favorite stories about Mercury 
or Hermes is how he plays a 

1195
01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:38,920
trick on his brother who has a 
bunch of cattle and he turns all

1196
01:26:38,920 --> 01:26:42,640
the cows feet backwards. 
So when they walk forward, it 

1197
01:26:42,640 --> 01:26:45,840
looks like if you were following
their footsteps, that they were 

1198
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:49,160
walking in the other direction. 
And then his brother can't find 

1199
01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:51,440
his cattle because he's, you 
know, following the wrong 

1200
01:26:51,440 --> 01:26:54,120
pathway. 
And this might be a symbol for 

1201
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:56,200
us to be thinking about with the
Mercury retrograde. 

1202
01:26:56,200 --> 01:26:59,800
So often times, you know, we've 
read a symbol in the wrong way 

1203
01:27:00,240 --> 01:27:03,480
and retrograde is there to play 
a little bit of a trick on us. 

1204
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:08,560
And it's like, ha ha, you 
followed that path thinking that

1205
01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:10,880
it was the path that was going 
to get you where you're going. 

1206
01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:14,680
But it's not actually. 
And sometimes it's really good 

1207
01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:17,760
to be confused, right? 
Sometimes we it's actually 

1208
01:27:17,760 --> 01:27:22,680
necessary for us to lose our way
because then it makes us pay 

1209
01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:27,120
attention and paying attention 
in different ways, opening up 

1210
01:27:27,120 --> 01:27:30,720
our sense faculties, asking 
questions, investigating things 

1211
01:27:30,960 --> 01:27:34,720
again, reflecting on something 
or remembering or repairing. 

1212
01:27:35,000 --> 01:27:36,840
These are things that human 
beings have to do. 

1213
01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:41,000
We can't just constantly be 
moving forward urgently all the 

1214
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:42,680
time thinking that we know where
we're going. 

1215
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:48,040
Sometimes we have to look 
backwards, and this is a 

1216
01:27:48,040 --> 01:27:52,080
powerful indicator, I think in 
2026, of looking backwards. 

1217
01:27:52,840 --> 01:27:54,600
So I'm thinking of the Sankofa 
bird here. 

1218
01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:57,800
And you know, this idea that we 
move into the future by 

1219
01:27:57,800 --> 01:28:02,000
remembering the past and we 
remember what we always already 

1220
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:05,640
know in order to build what is 
new and what is next. 

1221
01:28:05,640 --> 01:28:08,240
And what we always already know 
is that we are connected. 

1222
01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:15,600
The first language that any of 
us speak is not language, it's 

1223
01:28:15,600 --> 01:28:18,960
connection. 
We don't learn words first. 

1224
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:22,280
We learn vibration, we learn 
resonance, we learn a felt 

1225
01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:25,160
sense. 
And this is something that we 

1226
01:28:25,160 --> 01:28:28,080
have got to remember if we're 
going to survive on planet Earth

1227
01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:31,800
in any way that's worth living 
through, surviving through, 

1228
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:33,920
we've got to remember that we're
connected. 

1229
01:28:34,400 --> 01:28:38,000
And I think this is what the 
Mercury retrogrades are doing in

1230
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:40,920
our lives. 
And it may be helping us, you 

1231
01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:42,960
know, remember that we're 
connected through periods of 

1232
01:28:42,960 --> 01:28:47,120
heartbreak and something falling
apart and mistakes and 

1233
01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:52,320
miscommunications because grief 
and love are a pair. 

1234
01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:56,600
And sometimes things have to 
fall apart in order to be 

1235
01:28:56,600 --> 01:29:02,480
repaired and regenerated and 
rehydrated and revitalized. 

1236
01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:05,200
And these are some of my 
favorite words for Mercury's 

1237
01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:08,400
retrograde in Cancer 
rehydration. 

1238
01:29:08,680 --> 01:29:13,000
Take your sips of water. 
So to go back through all this 

1239
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:16,760
map, I'm going to say that 
Mercury comes into Cancer in the

1240
01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:22,040
beginning of June and it begins 
its pre retrograde shadow as of 

1241
01:29:22,040 --> 01:29:24,520
June 12th. 
It will station retrograde on 

1242
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:28,040
June 29th. 
It will be retrograde until July

1243
01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:31,560
23rd, and then it will stay in 
its post retrograde shadow until

1244
01:29:31,560 --> 01:29:35,040
August 7th. 
Excuse me, August 6th. 

1245
01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:39,320
So the pre and post retrograde 
shadows are the periods of time 

1246
01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:42,280
that Mercury is traveling direct
over the terrain that it 

1247
01:29:42,280 --> 01:29:46,480
retrogrades on, and it will be 
retrograde from 26° of Cancer 

1248
01:29:46,480 --> 01:29:50,880
back to 16° of Cancer. 
So it first passes 16° on August

1249
01:29:50,880 --> 01:29:56,800
12th and it moves past 26° on 
August 6th. 

1250
01:29:56,800 --> 01:30:02,120
I think I said the month wrong. 
It first passes 16° on July 

1251
01:30:02,120 --> 01:30:04,000
12th. 
June 12th. 

1252
01:30:05,120 --> 01:30:11,440
Excuse me first passes 16° on 
June 12th and it leaves its 

1253
01:30:11,440 --> 01:30:16,120
shadow. 
Passes over 26th Cancer on 

1254
01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:22,080
August 6th. 
OK so Mercury enters Cancer as 

1255
01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:28,080
of June 1st and on June 9th 
Mercury will square Saturn on 

1256
01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:32,640
its way to entering its shadow. 
And June 9th is also the day 

1257
01:30:32,640 --> 01:30:35,280
that Venus and Jupiter are 
conjunct in Cancer. 

1258
01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:39,360
So this is before Venus and 
Jupiter come into Leo. 

1259
01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:42,560
This is just a couple weeks from
now from when I'm recording for 

1260
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:46,040
you. 
June 9th is a powerful day of 

1261
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,240
alignment. 
Venus and Jupiter are considered

1262
01:30:49,240 --> 01:30:51,480
to be the benefits of the 
planetary pantheon. 

1263
01:30:51,480 --> 01:30:54,280
Wherever they go, they bring 
gifts and opportunity and wealth

1264
01:30:54,280 --> 01:30:55,720
and good fortune and good 
feelings. 

1265
01:30:56,680 --> 01:31:01,160
And Blair Bogan, who's an 
astrologer that is going to join

1266
01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:03,480
me for a conversation on June 
13th. 

1267
01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:06,840
Me and Alice Barkleycat and 
Alicia Mauji check the show 

1268
01:31:06,840 --> 01:31:08,520
notes. 
Stick around. 

1269
01:31:08,520 --> 01:31:09,800
I'm going to tell you more about
events. 

1270
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:15,720
But Blair said in their 2026 
year ahead that I listened to, 

1271
01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:19,200
you know, we can't let the world
ruin good astrology for us. 

1272
01:31:19,680 --> 01:31:23,000
And they were talking about, I 
think in 2025, the Venus, 

1273
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:31,080
Jupiter conjunction aligning 
with, I think it was, I think it

1274
01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:33,600
was like a ice occupation in Los
Angeles. 

1275
01:31:34,160 --> 01:31:40,560
And that's definitely a 
possibility with Venus and 

1276
01:31:40,560 --> 01:31:43,960
Jupiter in Cancer because 
there's no such thing as a 

1277
01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:46,280
binary anywhere, including an 
astrology. 

1278
01:31:46,280 --> 01:31:49,240
So just because we have the 
benefits coming together doesn't

1279
01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:53,600
mean it's going to be good. 
Unfortunately, Venus rules 

1280
01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:56,720
wealth. 
Jupiter can be associated with 

1281
01:31:56,720 --> 01:32:02,040
bureaucrats and all kinds of 
ideas about what's right and 

1282
01:32:02,040 --> 01:32:06,080
what's wrong. 
And Cancer is a sign that can be

1283
01:32:06,080 --> 01:32:08,960
very enclosed and it's ideas 
about who belongs and who does 

1284
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:11,880
not. 
And there can be weaponization 

1285
01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:14,240
of these energies as well as 
great potential. 

1286
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:21,160
But I'm going to say that the 
worst thing any of us can do is 

1287
01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:23,480
not do anything because we're 
afraid of what's going to 

1288
01:32:23,480 --> 01:32:25,120
happen. 
And the best thing that any of 

1289
01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:30,800
us can do is what the best thing
is that any of us can do, which 

1290
01:32:30,800 --> 01:32:37,640
is completely up to each of us. 
The day that Mercury begins its 

1291
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:41,680
pre retrograde shadow is the day
that the nodes square Uranus. 

1292
01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:48,320
So we're in a time of definitely
a lot of change, and there's a 

1293
01:32:48,320 --> 01:32:50,040
lot of turbulence around this 
time. 

1294
01:32:51,360 --> 01:32:56,120
And then as Mercury is in its 
retrograde, Jupiter moves into 

1295
01:32:56,120 --> 01:33:00,640
Leo, we'll have Mars squaring 
the nodes, Mars will move into 

1296
01:33:00,640 --> 01:33:04,400
Gemini. 
It will do its whole dance with 

1297
01:33:04,400 --> 01:33:09,400
the outer planets. 
So there is a lot of activation.

1298
01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:11,160
Venus is in Leo at this time as 
well. 

1299
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:14,160
So there's a lot of things that 
are moving around. 

1300
01:33:14,640 --> 01:33:18,280
There's a lot of noise, there's 
a lot of mayhem. 

1301
01:33:18,280 --> 01:33:21,000
There might be a lot of new 
connections and exciting types 

1302
01:33:21,000 --> 01:33:23,240
of things. 
There may be a lot of parties to

1303
01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:26,680
go to. 
We are still in pride season for

1304
01:33:26,680 --> 01:33:31,280
part of this period of time. 
We are headed into the middle of

1305
01:33:31,280 --> 01:33:33,680
summer, the thick of summer for 
those of us in the Northern 

1306
01:33:33,680 --> 01:33:35,480
hemisphere. 
Things are getting real hot. 

1307
01:33:37,600 --> 01:33:41,160
There's a lot that's moving and 
there's a lot that's growing 

1308
01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:45,920
when it comes to a kind of 
larger collective momentum as 

1309
01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:48,800
Jupiter moves into Leo again, 
that's the day that Mercury 

1310
01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:51,880
stations retrograde on the 29th 
of June. 

1311
01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:57,560
But then Mercury is retrograding
in a place that governs the 

1312
01:33:57,560 --> 01:34:01,320
inner body in the felt sense. 
And I'm just going to say that I

1313
01:34:01,360 --> 01:34:04,440
think that this influence is a 
great influence for us to 

1314
01:34:04,440 --> 01:34:08,760
remember our belonging and that 
word itself. 

1315
01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:11,680
Remembering is bringing the 
members back together. 

1316
01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:15,440
And because this energy does 
come at a time of, you know, 

1317
01:34:15,440 --> 01:34:20,160
increased heartfulness and also 
lots of new connections being 

1318
01:34:20,160 --> 01:34:24,760
made, I really want to encourage
all of us to let the RE prefix 

1319
01:34:24,760 --> 01:34:29,360
be a time of revitalizing our 
connections, rehydrating 

1320
01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:31,160
ourselves. 
And how we do that with the 

1321
01:34:31,160 --> 01:34:34,240
water element is to allow 
ourselves to really feel our 

1322
01:34:34,240 --> 01:34:36,120
feelings and to be present with 
them. 

1323
01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:39,640
And especially if we're 
gathering together to create 

1324
01:34:39,640 --> 01:34:43,200
context where people can feel 
feelings together and express 

1325
01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:48,120
feelings together in ways that 
can help feelings move and 

1326
01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:50,880
change. 
And art is one of the best ways 

1327
01:34:50,880 --> 01:34:55,600
to do that. 
Art and dance and music are such

1328
01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:58,800
powerful technologies for 
feelings to be felt 

1329
01:34:58,800 --> 01:35:02,800
authentically and strongly, but 
also to be felt in ways that 

1330
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:07,800
help us to move, move ourselves 
and move each other, and move 

1331
01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:11,440
the feelings past the kind of 
stagnancy or stuckness of the 

1332
01:35:11,440 --> 01:35:13,720
narratives that they sometimes 
get confined by. 

1333
01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:19,480
Mercury is conjunct with the Sun
on July 12th, and then on July 

1334
01:35:19,480 --> 01:35:23,800
14th there's a New Moon that is 
basically conjunct with Mercury.

1335
01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:27,920
This is the inferior conjunction
when Mercury is retrograde. 

1336
01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:31,600
And this is well, Uranus is 
perfecting its sextile with 

1337
01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:35,600
Neptune and shrine with Pluto. 
So this is a very powerful time 

1338
01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:42,120
of realization and recognition, 
of deep feeling and remembrance 

1339
01:35:42,160 --> 01:35:44,880
is a strong possibility, 
especially if we are trying to 

1340
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:51,040
remember larger collective types
of possibilities for ourselves. 

1341
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:54,960
This is a great time to tell 
stories about what we already 

1342
01:35:54,960 --> 01:35:58,640
know. 
So what have we already known 

1343
01:35:58,640 --> 01:36:01,200
about how to survive times of 
apocalypse? 

1344
01:36:02,240 --> 01:36:07,720
Because many worlds have ended, 
and many people have survived 

1345
01:36:07,920 --> 01:36:12,680
and transformed and traveled 
into new worlds and been aliens 

1346
01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:17,040
in new worlds, and then found 
their footing and remembered 

1347
01:36:17,040 --> 01:36:18,760
again and again and again and 
again. 

1348
01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:23,880
And so how do stories pass 
knowledge along through 

1349
01:36:23,880 --> 01:36:26,840
generations? 
How do we remember the stuff and

1350
01:36:26,840 --> 01:36:29,480
the substance that leads to our 
awakening? 

1351
01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:34,480
What might those technologies be
for you in your frameworks, in 

1352
01:36:34,480 --> 01:36:37,760
your methodologies? 
For me, it's astrology, it's 

1353
01:36:37,760 --> 01:36:42,120
dance, it's song, it's art, it's
storytelling. 

1354
01:36:42,160 --> 01:36:46,880
These are the things that I feel
in my own body and bloodline and

1355
01:36:46,880 --> 01:36:49,960
resonance and passion always 
bring me back. 

1356
01:36:50,360 --> 01:36:52,400
They bring me back to something 
that's bigger than me. 

1357
01:36:53,320 --> 01:36:58,080
So use this time to remember 
that Mercury retrograde is a 

1358
01:36:58,080 --> 01:37:02,320
very powerful time. 
And then Mercury stations 

1359
01:37:02,320 --> 01:37:06,360
direct, basically the first day 
of Leo season on July 23rd. 

1360
01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:13,120
And as Mercury stations direct 
and starts to move out of its 

1361
01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:17,720
shadow phase, August 6th, this 
is when Jupiter and the Sun are 

1362
01:37:17,720 --> 01:37:21,520
coming together, which is a very
powerful signature of truth. 

1363
01:37:22,480 --> 01:37:24,960
Truth, of course, is subjective.
There are many, many, many, many

1364
01:37:24,960 --> 01:37:28,040
truths, not just one. 
And then we might live at a time

1365
01:37:28,040 --> 01:37:30,600
when some people are saying 
there's just one truth and 

1366
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:34,880
they're the ones that have the, 
you know, be all, end all, last 

1367
01:37:34,880 --> 01:37:39,200
word on it. 
That's a lie. 

1368
01:37:39,880 --> 01:37:46,200
And the truth is, is that none 
of us breathe without the life 

1369
01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:49,800
that's here on Earth. 
And we don't survive without 

1370
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:54,160
each other. 
So this remembering that's 

1371
01:37:54,160 --> 01:37:58,280
possible as Jupiter and the Sun 
come together, as Pluto and 

1372
01:37:58,280 --> 01:38:02,240
Neptune perfect their sextile 
and all the outer planets are 

1373
01:38:02,240 --> 01:38:05,400
being contacted and the nodal 
axis is shifting into Aquarius 

1374
01:38:05,400 --> 01:38:08,600
and Leo, could be a time of 
remembering. 

1375
01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:13,160
While there is mounting and 
accelerating energies of 

1376
01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:17,480
supremacy and domination, that 
can certainly be something that 

1377
01:38:17,480 --> 01:38:20,520
these astrological energies can 
convey. 

1378
01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:26,640
My opinion is that as those 
energies intensify, so does the 

1379
01:38:26,640 --> 01:38:28,760
resistance. 
And the resistance here is in 

1380
01:38:28,760 --> 01:38:33,200
the multitudes, it's in the 
biodiversity, it's in the joy, 

1381
01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:37,600
it's in the joyful 
multiplicities. 

1382
01:38:38,960 --> 01:38:44,920
It's a great time to disobey. 
If there's a one order, one, one

1383
01:38:44,920 --> 01:38:48,920
rule that a human came up with, 
it's a good time to disobey. 

1384
01:38:49,240 --> 01:38:52,800
This is a great time to follow 
the laws and the rules of nature

1385
01:38:53,200 --> 01:38:56,720
and to disobey the laws and the 
rules of human beings, 

1386
01:38:56,760 --> 01:39:00,320
especially human beings that 
refuse to follow the laws of 

1387
01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:03,160
nature. 
So if human beings are deeply 

1388
01:39:03,160 --> 01:39:10,080
invested in killing nature and 
not honoring life, any rules and

1389
01:39:10,080 --> 01:39:14,520
laws that they make are lies and
should be disobeyed in my 

1390
01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:19,680
opinion. 
So Mercury will leave its 

1391
01:39:19,680 --> 01:39:21,320
retrograde shadow as of August 
6th. 

1392
01:39:21,320 --> 01:39:24,200
And then I've talked to you 
about what Mercury is doing the 

1393
01:39:24,200 --> 01:39:27,320
rest of the time. 
So now I want to jump forward a 

1394
01:39:27,320 --> 01:39:32,240
little bit and remember that on 
August 31st, Venus begins its 

1395
01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:38,840
pre retrograde shadow. 
Its retro shade starts at 22° of

1396
01:39:38,840 --> 01:39:42,120
Libra. 
Venus will be stationing 

1397
01:39:42,160 --> 01:39:49,560
retrograde on October 3rd at 8° 
of Scorpio in this forecast. 

1398
01:39:49,560 --> 01:39:53,240
I'm not getting into the 
Astrology Pass Virgo season, but

1399
01:39:53,240 --> 01:39:57,080
I will say that Venus's 
retrograde moves from 8 Scorpio 

1400
01:39:57,080 --> 01:40:01,920
back to 22 Libra between October
3rd and November 14th. 

1401
01:40:05,600 --> 01:40:12,080
When Venus stations retrograde, 
it will be square to Mars and 

1402
01:40:12,080 --> 01:40:13,760
Mars will be in Leo at that 
point. 

1403
01:40:14,480 --> 01:40:21,960
And then when Venus stations 
direct, it will be sextile with 

1404
01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:26,240
Mars and Jupiter in the South 
Node in Leo. 

1405
01:40:26,680 --> 01:40:31,080
So kind of an interesting 
signature there in terms of 

1406
01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:37,640
Venus and Mars working together.
Venus is at home in Libra, but 

1407
01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:41,920
it's in Mars's sign in Scorpio. 
So it will station retrograde in

1408
01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:45,400
Mars's sign and then it will go 
back to its own sign. 

1409
01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:49,040
Now, this is beyond the scope of
this reading, so I'm not going 

1410
01:40:49,040 --> 01:40:51,800
to talk so much about this 
retrograde. 

1411
01:40:51,800 --> 01:40:55,760
Now, I do want to include that 
Mercury will be retrograde in 

1412
01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:59,640
Scorpio during that time as 
well. 

1413
01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:04,520
Mercury's retrograde is fully in
Scorpio between October 24th and

1414
01:41:04,520 --> 01:41:09,080
November 13th, from 20° back to 
five degrees of Scorpio. 

1415
01:41:11,800 --> 01:41:15,960
So the water element again is 
deepening. 

1416
01:41:15,960 --> 01:41:23,160
It's asking us to remember. 
And Mercury is a storyteller and

1417
01:41:23,160 --> 01:41:27,760
Venus works very deeply in the 
realms of our bodies, our 

1418
01:41:27,760 --> 01:41:33,880
senses, sensing capacities, our 
values and our relationships. 

1419
01:41:34,920 --> 01:41:41,320
And So what the last quarter of 
this year is bringing is an 

1420
01:41:41,320 --> 01:41:46,080
opportunity to deepen. 
Scorpio is definitely a sign of 

1421
01:41:46,080 --> 01:41:54,080
depth and also to rebalance and 
potentially do some work of 

1422
01:41:54,680 --> 01:41:59,640
sacrifice, which is to make 
sacred by letting go of that 

1423
01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:03,240
which does not serve life, love 
and liberation. 

1424
01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:09,560
So hopefully I'll be able to 
come back in a couple of months 

1425
01:42:09,560 --> 01:42:18,040
and explore that time with you. 
But I'll pause for now because 

1426
01:42:18,040 --> 01:42:24,280
I'm almost at 2 hours and 
reaching the end of what I 

1427
01:42:24,280 --> 01:42:27,200
wanted to say. 
I do want to say one other thing

1428
01:42:27,200 --> 01:42:31,240
about the next several months, 
which is that the Centaur planet

1429
01:42:31,240 --> 01:42:36,440
Chiron is making its first 
ingress into Taurus beginning in

1430
01:42:36,440 --> 01:42:40,320
June. 
Centaur planets are interesting 

1431
01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:42,560
bodies. 
They have highly elliptical 

1432
01:42:43,040 --> 01:42:45,280
orbital patterns. 
They spend a really long time in

1433
01:42:45,280 --> 01:42:49,880
some signs and a very short time
in others, and they link the 

1434
01:42:49,880 --> 01:42:52,320
orbits of the outer planets and 
the inner planets. 

1435
01:42:52,920 --> 01:42:57,320
Chiron links the orbits of 
Uranus and Saturn has a 50 year 

1436
01:42:57,320 --> 01:43:00,200
orbit around the Sun, and it 
spends the longest amount of 

1437
01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:03,760
time in the signs that it's 
currently in Pisces, Aries, and 

1438
01:43:03,760 --> 01:43:08,560
Taurus. 
And Chiron has been in Aries 

1439
01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:11,760
since 2018. 
But on June 19th it's making its

1440
01:43:11,760 --> 01:43:14,760
first entry into Taurus. 
It will only make it into the 

1441
01:43:14,760 --> 01:43:18,320
first degree before it stations 
retrograde on August 3rd and 

1442
01:43:18,320 --> 01:43:23,040
then it goes back into Aries on 
September 17th and it will 

1443
01:43:23,040 --> 01:43:28,280
station direct in Aries January 
7th and then it will come back 

1444
01:43:28,280 --> 01:43:32,440
into Taurus in Aries season next
year on April 15th. 

1445
01:43:34,840 --> 01:43:37,880
I'm sure that I and other 
astrologers will have a great 

1446
01:43:37,880 --> 01:43:42,720
time talking more about Chiron 
in Taurus, but I just want to 

1447
01:43:42,720 --> 01:43:45,960
presence this a little bit. 
And I want to say first of all, 

1448
01:43:45,960 --> 01:43:49,600
that if you are in your late 40s
or early 50s, you're probably 

1449
01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:51,320
about to have your Chiron 
returned. 

1450
01:43:51,320 --> 01:43:54,560
So you can check your Natal 
chart and see if you have Chiron

1451
01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:58,600
in either late Aries or Taurus 
somewhere. 

1452
01:43:58,640 --> 01:44:02,160
It's a very powerful time in 
life, and I'd highly recommend 

1453
01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:04,200
that you learn about it if 
that's your case. 

1454
01:44:06,040 --> 01:44:10,080
Chiron is often called the 
wounded healer and it takes us 

1455
01:44:10,080 --> 01:44:13,520
on healing journeys which are 
sometimes facilitated or 

1456
01:44:13,520 --> 01:44:17,960
precipitated by crises of 
healing in Aries. 

1457
01:44:18,160 --> 01:44:22,000
Since 2018, perhaps many of us 
have been on a healing journey 

1458
01:44:22,000 --> 01:44:25,960
or been aware of the healing 
crises in the realms of 

1459
01:44:25,960 --> 01:44:29,360
selfhood. 
Aries again is the self, the 

1460
01:44:29,360 --> 01:44:33,880
differentiated self. 
Aries also has a strong 

1461
01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:36,600
association or relationship with
masculinity. 

1462
01:44:37,040 --> 01:44:40,760
This has been the time that the,
you know, male loneliness 

1463
01:44:40,840 --> 01:44:46,880
epidemic has been named, but 
also the time that there's been 

1464
01:44:46,880 --> 01:44:53,000
a wild increase in violence 
perpetuated by men. 

1465
01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:56,920
And a lot of revelation or 
awareness of violence is that 

1466
01:44:56,920 --> 01:45:02,120
have always been there and maybe
are potentially even becoming 

1467
01:45:02,120 --> 01:45:05,920
worse. 
But sometimes it takes the worst

1468
01:45:05,920 --> 01:45:12,640
to bring out the best. 
And I'll just speak to my own 

1469
01:45:12,640 --> 01:45:18,200
experience and I'm not a man. 
But in this time since 2018, in 

1470
01:45:18,200 --> 01:45:22,560
terms of the self and the body 
and the identity, which is an 

1471
01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:27,120
Aries domain, one thing that 
I've become aware of as a white 

1472
01:45:27,120 --> 01:45:32,080
bodied person has been some of 
the worst aspects of whiteness 

1473
01:45:32,680 --> 01:45:34,760
and white supremacy and 
colonization. 

1474
01:45:38,120 --> 01:45:42,400
And I think that learning for 
myself and becoming increasingly

1475
01:45:42,400 --> 01:45:47,400
aware is bringing out much 
better parts of me. 

1476
01:45:48,200 --> 01:45:56,800
So I wish these things never 
existed and that I didn't have 

1477
01:45:56,800 --> 01:46:00,000
to grapple with an ancestral 
resonance that has created so 

1478
01:46:00,000 --> 01:46:03,760
much harm. 
A lot of people have been 

1479
01:46:03,760 --> 01:46:07,120
assimilated into whiteness, and 
I come from people who have been

1480
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:10,880
persecuted and who have fled and
who have also maintained and 

1481
01:46:10,880 --> 01:46:14,680
cultivated beauty and healing in
many ways. 

1482
01:46:15,560 --> 01:46:19,520
But in terms of assimilation, 
the monolith of whiteness has 

1483
01:46:19,560 --> 01:46:25,320
really done some damage and 
becoming increasingly conscious 

1484
01:46:25,440 --> 01:46:36,360
because of things also being 
blatantly bad has helped me move

1485
01:46:36,360 --> 01:46:42,600
towards my best and better ways.
It's an ongoing process and 

1486
01:46:42,600 --> 01:46:45,480
project for sure. 
It's a lifetime devotion. 

1487
01:46:45,840 --> 01:46:47,800
But again, none of us are 
perfect. 

1488
01:46:48,200 --> 01:46:53,280
And trying to, you know, fix or 
figure out any of these ancient 

1489
01:46:53,280 --> 01:46:56,640
twisted karmas and massive 
systemic institutional 

1490
01:46:57,280 --> 01:47:01,720
situations is not, you know, 
it's not possible just in one 

1491
01:47:01,720 --> 01:47:04,600
body and it's definitely not 
possible inside of one lifetime.

1492
01:47:04,600 --> 01:47:09,160
And certainly not possible in 
the span of like a couple 

1493
01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:11,560
minutes or a couple decades or 
anything like that. 

1494
01:47:12,440 --> 01:47:19,000
So, yeah, all that to say, you 
know, whatever identity we might

1495
01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:22,960
be in, where we see some of the 
worst being manifested, whether 

1496
01:47:22,960 --> 01:47:30,840
that's for men or for white 
people or for people who have 

1497
01:47:30,840 --> 01:47:35,400
generational wealth or for 
people who live inside of 

1498
01:47:35,400 --> 01:47:40,360
identities that have dominated 
and oppressed other identities. 

1499
01:47:40,360 --> 01:47:44,120
Because it's been a trend inside
of human consciousness to 

1500
01:47:44,120 --> 01:47:48,720
dominate and oppress for a very 
long time and across all kinds 

1501
01:47:48,720 --> 01:47:52,920
of different identities. 
Certainly not, you know, only 

1502
01:47:52,920 --> 01:47:55,480
the domain of any particular 
group. 

1503
01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:59,280
There's lots of domination, lots
of oppression, lots of violence,

1504
01:47:59,720 --> 01:48:02,440
and we all have those seeds of 
potentials within us. 

1505
01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:08,560
So when we see the worst coming 
out, let's not let that be a 

1506
01:48:08,560 --> 01:48:12,000
reason for us to mirror it or 
tell ourselves that's the only 

1507
01:48:12,000 --> 01:48:17,560
story that's possible for those 
types of people or see in 

1508
01:48:17,560 --> 01:48:21,360
ourselves. 
You know that the other ring, 

1509
01:48:21,360 --> 01:48:24,000
you know, blinds us to our own 
potentials or something like 

1510
01:48:24,000 --> 01:48:27,280
that. 
Anyway, Chiron is coming in a 

1511
01:48:27,280 --> 01:48:32,520
Taurus, and Taurus is a sign 
that is often associated also 

1512
01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:36,720
with the feminine. 
So we'll see what this healing 

1513
01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:39,800
journey is about. 
Taurus is a sign that's very 

1514
01:48:39,800 --> 01:48:42,160
much associated with land and 
with Earth. 

1515
01:48:42,320 --> 01:48:47,120
And this is a possibility, I 
think Chiron and Taurus to 

1516
01:48:47,120 --> 01:48:51,720
really awaken to the healing 
journeys that we can take as 

1517
01:48:51,720 --> 01:48:56,200
Earth beings and Earth bodies. 
Chiron presents us with 

1518
01:48:56,200 --> 01:48:59,880
intergenerational and ancestral 
healing opportunities. 

1519
01:49:00,640 --> 01:49:07,200
The patterns of pain and illness
and dis ease are never contained

1520
01:49:07,200 --> 01:49:10,240
inside of one lifetime. 
When we're working with Chiron, 

1521
01:49:10,240 --> 01:49:12,720
we're always working with 
inherited trauma and inherited 

1522
01:49:12,720 --> 01:49:16,240
pain. 
And the healing journey that we 

1523
01:49:16,240 --> 01:49:20,040
go on is meant to help us do our
part in healing. 

1524
01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:25,200
And then may we be devoted, you 
know, to creating worlds and 

1525
01:49:25,200 --> 01:49:29,920
circumstances that produce 
situations for future ancestors 

1526
01:49:29,920 --> 01:49:33,560
where the healing work that they
can do can transcend and surpass

1527
01:49:33,560 --> 01:49:35,360
what we were able to do in our 
lifetimes. 

1528
01:49:37,200 --> 01:49:38,920
So I think I'll leave it there 
for now. 

1529
01:49:40,040 --> 01:49:44,040
I will say that embodied 
astrology is a project that is 

1530
01:49:44,040 --> 01:49:48,200
one way that I've been really 
devoted to trying to realize my 

1531
01:49:48,200 --> 01:49:51,480
best. 
It's 12 years old now, so 

1532
01:49:51,480 --> 01:49:54,040
embodied astrology is having a 
Jupiter return this year. 

1533
01:49:54,040 --> 01:50:00,320
It's a Natal Jupiter in Cancer. 
And as EA as a project has 

1534
01:50:00,320 --> 01:50:02,680
grown, it has become a 
collective space. 

1535
01:50:03,440 --> 01:50:07,520
And this is part of my intention
is to create access to astrology

1536
01:50:07,520 --> 01:50:12,240
that is embodied and 
experiential and transmissible 

1537
01:50:12,240 --> 01:50:16,200
through the felt sense and 
vibratory resonance, and also 

1538
01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:21,440
really fun to engage with. 
I do think that astrology is a 

1539
01:50:21,440 --> 01:50:23,320
deeply transformative 
technology. 

1540
01:50:23,720 --> 01:50:27,360
And as something that's really 
fun to do, I think that it's 

1541
01:50:27,600 --> 01:50:30,680
attractive. 
And in the ways that we can have

1542
01:50:30,680 --> 01:50:34,360
fun together with astrology, 
there are such massive 

1543
01:50:34,360 --> 01:50:37,160
potentials in our communication 
and relationships. 

1544
01:50:37,440 --> 01:50:41,760
It's one of the best modalities 
I've ever experienced to help 

1545
01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:45,240
relationships heal and deepen 
and strengthen because we're all

1546
01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:49,120
paradoxical and idiosyncratic 
and imperfect and traumatized. 

1547
01:50:49,360 --> 01:50:51,720
But a lot of that, most of that 
shows up in our charts. 

1548
01:50:52,520 --> 01:50:55,600
And to be able to see it in our 
charts helps us to not take it 

1549
01:50:55,600 --> 01:50:59,080
personally and helps us to not 
objectify ourselves or others, 

1550
01:50:59,320 --> 01:51:02,200
but to get very curious about 
what are these influences and 

1551
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:04,840
how can we care for ourselves 
and how can we communicate 

1552
01:51:05,120 --> 01:51:08,280
across our, you know, elemental 
and modality and aspect to 

1553
01:51:08,280 --> 01:51:14,800
differences and embodied 
astrology as a collective now 

1554
01:51:14,800 --> 01:51:18,800
supports multiple practitioners 
and also group practice spaces. 

1555
01:51:18,800 --> 01:51:22,520
And inside of these spaces, we 
are practicing tuning in with 

1556
01:51:22,520 --> 01:51:27,160
our best selves, which is often 
also tuning in with our 

1557
01:51:28,080 --> 01:51:31,160
shortcomings, in tuning in with 
our limitations and capacities 

1558
01:51:31,160 --> 01:51:35,000
and our senses of humor. 
And really, you know, building 

1559
01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:38,640
and cultivating our gifts and 
taking care of the places where 

1560
01:51:38,880 --> 01:51:42,800
maybe we can't see ourselves so 
clearly or we act out of 

1561
01:51:42,800 --> 01:51:45,240
alignment or make impacts that 
we don't intend. 

1562
01:51:46,880 --> 01:51:52,840
So if you're interested in doing
work that might support and 

1563
01:51:52,840 --> 01:51:56,880
assist you and loving yourself 
more and connecting more deeply 

1564
01:51:56,880 --> 01:52:00,440
with others and exploring your 
gifts and your generosities and 

1565
01:52:00,440 --> 01:52:04,120
your opportunities, please come 
and join us sometime at Embodied

1566
01:52:04,120 --> 01:52:06,720
Astrology. 
And we have a whole lot of 

1567
01:52:06,720 --> 01:52:10,600
things going on that are 
strategically timed with 

1568
01:52:10,600 --> 01:52:13,480
astrology to support what is 
happening now. 

1569
01:52:14,400 --> 01:52:18,200
So the first thing that I'm 
going to mention is that we have

1570
01:52:18,200 --> 01:52:22,040
two monthly series, one of which
has already started and one 

1571
01:52:22,040 --> 01:52:25,240
which we'll be starting and both
of them are working with fire. 

1572
01:52:25,760 --> 01:52:29,240
So the one that has already 
started is a series that is 

1573
01:52:29,240 --> 01:52:33,080
devoted to initiation of 
spiritual warriorship. 

1574
01:52:33,640 --> 01:52:36,680
And this series is working 
intentionally with Saturn and 

1575
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:40,720
Neptune in Aries with this new 
world building type of energy. 

1576
01:52:41,480 --> 01:52:44,120
The space is held by Aziz 
Bisanz. 

1577
01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:48,120
Aziz is an embodied astrology 
practitioner, a somatic 

1578
01:52:48,120 --> 01:52:52,560
therapist, an artist and an 
activist, and he is holding 

1579
01:52:52,560 --> 01:52:55,920
space with multiple other 
facilitators from all around the

1580
01:52:55,920 --> 01:52:58,520
world. 
I'm excited to join Aziz, by the

1581
01:52:58,520 --> 01:53:02,160
way, on June 23rd for a special 
session. 

1582
01:53:02,160 --> 01:53:08,880
We'll look at Eris, an outer 
planet that I didn't name yet in

1583
01:53:08,920 --> 01:53:12,280
this transmission, but Eris is 
also in Aries and I think a 

1584
01:53:12,280 --> 01:53:16,800
powerful player in the whole 
gestalt of everything that's 

1585
01:53:16,800 --> 01:53:19,680
happening. 
And I am really excited to 

1586
01:53:20,680 --> 01:53:26,280
explore Eris together. 
But along with me on June 23rd, 

1587
01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:29,760
Aziz has multiple guests 
throughout the year and every 

1588
01:53:29,760 --> 01:53:35,280
single month on the 4th Tuesday,
Aziz and guests gather to 

1589
01:53:35,280 --> 01:53:39,080
explore land based spiritual 
practices and practices of 

1590
01:53:39,080 --> 01:53:44,200
communal resilience and 
remembering how we are spiritual

1591
01:53:44,200 --> 01:53:47,560
warriors in times of occupation 
and genocide. 

1592
01:53:48,120 --> 01:53:53,160
How we come together with love 
for liberation, face our fears 

1593
01:53:53,240 --> 01:53:56,520
and really tap in and tune into 
our heart and our power. 

1594
01:53:58,240 --> 01:54:01,800
Starting in Leo season, the 
first week of August and then 

1595
01:54:01,800 --> 01:54:06,360
continuing the first week of 
every month, Alicia Emoji is 

1596
01:54:06,800 --> 01:54:11,200
facilitating a series called The
Solar Playground and Alicia will

1597
01:54:11,200 --> 01:54:16,760
be exploring Jupiter in Leo. 
So big heart energy, big gift 

1598
01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:20,640
energy, big generosity energy. 
How can we be our best selves? 

1599
01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:24,880
How can we know our best selves?
And sometimes being our best 

1600
01:54:24,880 --> 01:54:27,920
selves and knowing ourselves, 
knowing our best selves also 

1601
01:54:27,920 --> 01:54:30,920
requires us to know where we get
in our own way. 

1602
01:54:30,920 --> 01:54:33,120
So what are the narratives that 
limit us? 

1603
01:54:33,120 --> 01:54:37,000
What are the beliefs and 
philosophies that confine us and

1604
01:54:37,000 --> 01:54:39,280
contain us? 
And how can we expand beyond 

1605
01:54:39,280 --> 01:54:42,040
them? 
This will be an opportunity to 

1606
01:54:42,040 --> 01:54:45,480
engage with art and creative 
expression and different kinds 

1607
01:54:45,480 --> 01:54:47,760
of meaning making in a group 
setting. 

1608
01:54:47,760 --> 01:54:51,200
It's not a didactic teaching of 
astrology around what Jupiter 

1609
01:54:51,200 --> 01:54:55,360
and Leo is, but really a chance 
for people who are interested in

1610
01:54:55,600 --> 01:54:58,560
exploring their own charts and 
working with their own meaning 

1611
01:54:58,560 --> 01:55:04,880
making around astrology to play 
over the course of every season.

1612
01:55:04,880 --> 01:55:07,520
We also have seasonally timed 
events. 

1613
01:55:08,440 --> 01:55:12,400
These events are often one off 
events and their conversations 

1614
01:55:12,400 --> 01:55:15,680
or other kinds of happenings 
that are meant to boost the 

1615
01:55:15,680 --> 01:55:17,480
energy and the influence of the 
season. 

1616
01:55:18,160 --> 01:55:22,560
On June 13th and Gemini season, 
as I briefly mentioned before, 

1617
01:55:22,920 --> 01:55:26,800
I'm going to be joined by Blair 
Bogan and Alice Sparkly Cat, two

1618
01:55:26,800 --> 01:55:31,280
of my favorite astrologers and 
we are going to be in a 

1619
01:55:31,280 --> 01:55:33,960
conversation facilitated by 
Alicia Emoji, who I just 

1620
01:55:33,960 --> 01:55:35,960
mentioned. 
Alicia is a Community 

1621
01:55:35,960 --> 01:55:39,920
Coordinator at Embodied 
Astrology as well as a talented 

1622
01:55:39,920 --> 01:55:43,640
facilitator and space holder and
an enthusiastic astrology 

1623
01:55:43,880 --> 01:55:49,400
student and practitioner. 
And Alison Blair and I and 

1624
01:55:49,400 --> 01:55:52,480
Alicia as well all have very 
creative practices with 

1625
01:55:52,480 --> 01:55:57,240
astrology. 
We tend to be disobedient within

1626
01:55:57,240 --> 01:56:00,320
our forms. 
We are queer practitioners and 

1627
01:56:00,320 --> 01:56:01,920
we engage with queering 
astrology. 

1628
01:56:02,280 --> 01:56:07,280
So this conversation is going to
be exploring how we do that and 

1629
01:56:07,280 --> 01:56:11,960
how we think about astrology as 
practice that can transcend its 

1630
01:56:11,960 --> 01:56:14,720
own boundaries and be 
incorporated into art and 

1631
01:56:14,720 --> 01:56:19,640
activism in life, and also the 
ways that we engage socially in 

1632
01:56:19,640 --> 01:56:22,440
Cancer season. 
Right at the beginning of Cancer

1633
01:56:22,440 --> 01:56:26,720
season on the solstice itself on
June 21st, Aaron Fogle is 

1634
01:56:26,720 --> 01:56:30,120
joining me. 
Aaron is an amazing astrologer 

1635
01:56:30,120 --> 01:56:34,920
and energy worker and musician, 
and she's going to be joining me

1636
01:56:34,920 --> 01:56:38,000
to talk about Chiron and Taurus.
So if you're interested in this 

1637
01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:41,480
resonance of the wounded healer,
come and join us. 

1638
01:56:41,840 --> 01:56:45,960
Erin has a lot to offer in terms
of energy healing practices and 

1639
01:56:45,960 --> 01:56:49,080
inner contemplation and 
astrology. 

1640
01:56:49,480 --> 01:56:52,600
Chiron will have just moved into
Taurus a couple of days prior 

1641
01:56:52,600 --> 01:56:57,440
and on the solstice the Sun will
be sextile with Chiron from 

1642
01:56:57,440 --> 01:57:00,760
Cancer and it feels like a 
powerful time to align in a tune

1643
01:57:00,760 --> 01:57:05,400
with that energy. 
This is still in the works, so 

1644
01:57:05,400 --> 01:57:08,080
I'm saying this with a prayer 
that it's going to happen. 

1645
01:57:09,120 --> 01:57:14,080
We are currently planning a pop 
up astrology experience that 

1646
01:57:14,080 --> 01:57:17,760
will be happening the first week
of July in the midst of some of 

1647
01:57:17,760 --> 01:57:21,920
the most activating and chaotic 
astrology of the year. 

1648
01:57:22,360 --> 01:57:26,960
As Mars moves into Gemini and 
contacts all the outer planets 

1649
01:57:26,960 --> 01:57:31,000
and Neptune is stationing 
retrograde and Jupiter is there 

1650
01:57:31,600 --> 01:57:34,840
contacting all the outer 
planets, it is such a wild and 

1651
01:57:34,840 --> 01:57:37,640
wacky time to be trying to do 
something. 

1652
01:57:37,640 --> 01:57:44,480
Mercury will station retrograde 
as well, right around there, but

1653
01:57:44,480 --> 01:57:48,320
we're going to give it a go. 
And our intention is to use 

1654
01:57:48,320 --> 01:57:55,920
astrology to have a creative, 
chaotic collaboration that 

1655
01:57:56,160 --> 01:58:01,760
combines multiple locations in 
person and online, where we 

1656
01:58:01,800 --> 01:58:05,800
explore together personal and 
collective astrology. 

1657
01:58:05,800 --> 01:58:11,400
We research the past we maybe 
don't predict but look forward 

1658
01:58:11,400 --> 01:58:18,880
to the future and offer the 
future strategies like games or 

1659
01:58:19,160 --> 01:58:23,320
embodiment practices or ideas 
about how particular cycles 

1660
01:58:23,320 --> 01:58:27,040
might play out and inform 
ourselves. 

1661
01:58:27,440 --> 01:58:31,480
By doing community skill shares 
and learning about what people 

1662
01:58:31,480 --> 01:58:35,200
are already doing and have 
already known how to do that, we

1663
01:58:35,200 --> 01:58:39,920
can continue and spread and 
innovate and play with all 

1664
01:58:39,920 --> 01:58:43,240
together. 
And our idea is that we're going

1665
01:58:43,240 --> 01:58:49,720
to use this very powerful time 
of a lot of change and change 

1666
01:58:49,720 --> 01:58:56,360
making to seed the future with 
some possibilities about how the

1667
01:58:56,360 --> 01:59:00,080
world can be made and remade 
over the next 30 years of 

1668
01:59:00,080 --> 01:59:04,080
Saturn's cycle through the 
Zodiac and back into Aries. 

1669
01:59:04,880 --> 01:59:09,240
So I think that will be between 
June, excuse me, between July 

1670
01:59:09,240 --> 01:59:15,000
6th and July 12th. 
But definitely stay tuned with 

1671
01:59:15,000 --> 01:59:17,560
embodied astrology. 
Probably by the time this 

1672
01:59:17,800 --> 01:59:25,200
transmission comes out, we will 
not yet know or the dates won't 

1673
01:59:25,200 --> 01:59:27,480
be completely confirmed or 
something like that. 

1674
01:59:28,520 --> 01:59:32,360
But hopefully by Cancer season, 
we'll definitely know. 

1675
01:59:32,680 --> 01:59:35,480
And hopefully within a couple of
weeks we will have the dates 

1676
01:59:35,480 --> 01:59:38,160
confirmed. 
So make sure that you are signed

1677
01:59:38,160 --> 01:59:41,920
up for the EA newsletter. 
You can follow and subscribe and

1678
01:59:41,920 --> 01:59:44,560
listen to the podcast. 
We do put out a week ahead 

1679
01:59:44,560 --> 01:59:49,680
podcast on usually on Monday 
nights and you can follow us on 

1680
01:59:49,680 --> 01:59:52,760
Instagram as well. 
We'll make announcements there. 

1681
01:59:54,280 --> 01:59:59,720
It would be great to play with 
you around that time and then 

1682
01:59:59,720 --> 02:00:04,640
we'll have a Virgo season event.
Also the the details are TBA 

1683
02:00:05,720 --> 02:00:08,360
but. 
There are some plans in the 

1684
02:00:08,360 --> 02:00:11,080
works and so if you're 
interested in in exploring the 

1685
02:00:11,080 --> 02:00:16,840
devotional elements of Virgo and
Virgo's association with healing

1686
02:00:16,840 --> 02:00:22,800
and herbal medicine, we have a 
special guest hopefully who will

1687
02:00:22,800 --> 02:00:25,320
join us. 
And then on a week to week 

1688
02:00:25,320 --> 02:00:29,400
basis, you can find me every 
Monday from 8:00 to 9:30 AM. 

1689
02:00:29,520 --> 02:00:33,280
Pacific on Zoom or anytime by 
recording in my Moon day class 

1690
02:00:33,280 --> 02:00:37,200
somatic space. 
Every single week, I play in the

1691
02:00:37,200 --> 02:00:41,040
realms of embodying astrology 
and use the astrology of the 

1692
02:00:41,040 --> 02:00:43,440
week ahead to devise a somatic 
score. 

1693
02:00:44,040 --> 02:00:46,680
And so we TuneIn through the 
felt sense, we do movement, we 

1694
02:00:46,680 --> 02:00:49,280
do meditation. 
I'm recording for you on a moon 

1695
02:00:49,280 --> 02:00:51,880
day evening. 
And this morning we danced and 

1696
02:00:51,960 --> 02:00:53,960
it supported me so much 
throughout the day. 

1697
02:00:54,360 --> 02:00:58,440
And I still feel good from 
dancing together with the folks 

1698
02:00:58,440 --> 02:00:59,800
who were there with me in the 
Zoom room. 

1699
02:01:00,800 --> 02:01:03,640
These are gentle, accessible, 
all levels practices. 

1700
02:01:04,280 --> 02:01:07,720
Everybody can dance, even if not
everybody can stand on their 

1701
02:01:07,720 --> 02:01:11,560
feet or, you know, move any 
particular body parts. 

1702
02:01:11,840 --> 02:01:16,320
So we work through the realms of
energy and imagination and 

1703
02:01:16,320 --> 02:01:20,400
inspiration, and there's lots of
adaptability and modification 

1704
02:01:20,400 --> 02:01:23,960
cues and we're always thinking 
creatively about how does 

1705
02:01:23,960 --> 02:01:26,480
astrology move us and how can we
move with it. 

1706
02:01:27,200 --> 02:01:33,000
So you can drop in any time to 
somatic space, but if you become

1707
02:01:33,000 --> 02:01:37,120
a member, you'll also get access
to our other weekly space, which

1708
02:01:37,120 --> 02:01:40,560
is the chart reading study 
groups facilitated by Alicia on 

1709
02:01:40,560 --> 02:01:45,120
Thursday mornings and from 9:00 
to 11:00 Pacific. 

1710
02:01:46,200 --> 02:01:53,240
And these spaces are such sweet 
exploratory spaces and such a 

1711
02:01:53,240 --> 02:01:56,760
cool way to learn about 
astrology because astrology is 

1712
02:01:56,760 --> 02:01:59,560
always happening. 
It's living inside of us. 

1713
02:01:59,560 --> 02:02:02,200
We all are expert astrologers, 
even if we don't know the 

1714
02:02:02,200 --> 02:02:04,480
language. 
And the way that we do it at 

1715
02:02:04,480 --> 02:02:07,320
embodied astrology is not 
formulaic, it's not didactic. 

1716
02:02:07,320 --> 02:02:10,520
It's not a top down hierarchical
kind of model where you have to 

1717
02:02:10,520 --> 02:02:12,400
understand all the rules about 
something. 

1718
02:02:13,120 --> 02:02:18,000
We resonate with it and then we 
share stories and we really 

1719
02:02:18,360 --> 02:02:22,160
cultivate Co learning spaces and
the chart reading study groups 

1720
02:02:22,160 --> 02:02:26,440
are places where people teach 
each other and often it's 

1721
02:02:26,480 --> 02:02:29,400
through sharing information of 
what they've learned, but it's 

1722
02:02:29,400 --> 02:02:32,800
always through sharing their 
felt sets and experience. 

1723
02:02:33,560 --> 02:02:37,000
So these spaces function as 
storytelling spaces on some 

1724
02:02:37,000 --> 02:02:41,160
level, as peer support spaces. 
They're spaces that will really 

1725
02:02:41,160 --> 02:02:45,000
give you access to tuning in 
with your chart and therefore 

1726
02:02:45,000 --> 02:02:46,520
with yourself and with your 
life. 

1727
02:02:49,240 --> 02:02:54,880
So come play. 
The last thing that I'll say is 

1728
02:02:54,880 --> 02:02:57,360
that if you really want to learn
about astrology and you want to 

1729
02:02:57,360 --> 02:03:01,120
learn the insurance and outs of 
reading a chart, of casting a 

1730
02:03:01,120 --> 02:03:04,840
chart of reading Natal charts or
relationship charts or using 

1731
02:03:04,840 --> 02:03:07,480
astrology for event timing or 
things like that. 

1732
02:03:07,920 --> 02:03:13,240
I am offering a new practitioner
cohort starting in Virgo season 

1733
02:03:13,240 --> 02:03:16,280
the weekend of August 29th. 
And this is a year long 

1734
02:03:17,280 --> 02:03:22,720
apprenticeship and we are going 
to be gathering every other week

1735
02:03:22,720 --> 02:03:25,280
with me and on the off weeks in 
study groups. 

1736
02:03:26,880 --> 02:03:31,240
This is a deep dive into 
experiential embodied astrology.

1737
02:03:32,520 --> 02:03:36,480
This program has been taught one
time before in a 16 month model,

1738
02:03:36,720 --> 02:03:39,880
and several of the people who 
went through that program are 

1739
02:03:39,880 --> 02:03:45,080
now facilitators with Embodied 
Astrology, Aziz Bisance being 

1740
02:03:45,440 --> 02:03:48,960
one of them, who I mentioned is 
holding the space for initiation

1741
02:03:48,960 --> 02:03:53,960
into spiritual warriorship. 
My intention is that embodied 

1742
02:03:53,960 --> 02:03:59,960
astrology becomes a rich space 
of practitioner support and that

1743
02:04:01,320 --> 02:04:05,640
we share and spread astrology in
ways that can help a lot of 

1744
02:04:05,640 --> 02:04:08,800
people integrate astrology into 
their various modalities. 

1745
02:04:09,320 --> 02:04:14,280
So the way that we do astrology 
at EA is really meant to support

1746
02:04:14,400 --> 02:04:19,720
therapists, artists, healers, 
educators, activists, 

1747
02:04:20,000 --> 02:04:26,280
scientists, parents, whatever 
your special interest may be or 

1748
02:04:26,280 --> 02:04:28,280
whatever it is that you might 
do. 

1749
02:04:29,080 --> 02:04:31,520
Astrology could be a good 
companion for that, and we would

1750
02:04:31,520 --> 02:04:38,720
love to explore it with you. 
All right, so two hours and some

1751
02:04:38,720 --> 02:04:40,680
change. 
If you've been here the whole 

1752
02:04:40,680 --> 02:04:45,640
time with me, thanks for 
sticking around from sunset into

1753
02:04:45,640 --> 02:04:49,040
the evening. 
It's been nice to imagine you 

1754
02:04:49,040 --> 02:04:52,600
out there on the other end of 
this recording transmission. 

1755
02:04:53,720 --> 02:04:56,280
Thank you so much for the 
opportunity to do this work. 

1756
02:04:56,680 --> 02:05:00,720

please help me to continue to do

1757
02:05:00,720 --> 02:05:03,800
it and to offer it in many ways 
for free. 

1758
02:05:04,400 --> 02:05:06,680
The best way to do that is by 
sharing it with your friends. 

1759
02:05:06,680 --> 02:05:12,440

We've just had a couple of 
special member events over the 

1776
02:06:13,000 --> 02:06:17,440
last few weeks that have 
involved skill shares and some 

1777
02:06:17,840 --> 02:06:21,360
strategic planning around this 
whole chunk of astrology that I 

1778
02:06:21,360 --> 02:06:25,880
just went through.

month to our store and events. 
All right, I'm wishing you all 

1780
02:06:31,360 --> 02:06:34,240
the best from the midpoint of 
eclipses until the next set of 

1781
02:06:34,240 --> 02:06:36,720
eclipses. 
Thank you so much for tuning in.

1782
