1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,400
It's the Awake Space Astrology 
podcast. 

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,320
I'm Lori Rivers, your host here 
to help you with some 

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:10,080
inspiration to get those 
aspirations out into the world. 

4
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:15,880
And even if this week looks a 
little funky on the astrology 

5
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,680
side in the outer world, this 
week I'm going to help you 

6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,280
understand how to use this 
energy to propel forward. 

7
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,280
It is possible, my friends. 
It got a great episode. 

8
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,320
We're talking about the eclipse,
the lunar eclipse that happens 

9
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,040
to be the full moon. 
I'm going to explain a little 

10
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,640
bit about eclipses and what they
mean in the outer world versus 

11
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,360
what they mean in your interior 
world. 

12
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,720
And the two are separate. 
And I'm going to bang that home.

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:47,160
I'm talking with Eli Gomez about
how to use your voice using 

14
00:00:47,160 --> 00:00:51,760
astrology. 
He is a up and coming astrologer

15
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,400
who really serves his college 
community. 

16
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,600
But I don't care if you're 
older, you could benefit from 

17
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,520
hanging out with Eli. 
Eli is a little ray of sunshine.

18
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,640
So we'll be listening to Eli. 
Of course, we'll do patron shout

19
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,920
outs and I'll also be talking 
about how we can use astrology 

20
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,000
in everyday life for everything.
I've I've got a bone to pick 

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,920
with some people and I'm feeling
a little spicy. 

22
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,520
So grab your tea, grab your 
coffee, grab your matcha, carb 

23
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:24,720
your iced coffee, grab your 
whatever, your favorite bevy. 

24
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,320
And whether we're taking the 
kids to school or we're taking a

25
00:01:29,320 --> 00:01:32,520
walk or we're going to work, 
which we will find perfect 

26
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:37,760
parking, hang out with me for a 
while because it's an 

27
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,080
interesting week. 
And of course we'll go over the 

28
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,400
headlines. 
But remember, that's what we're 

29
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,840
going to see in the news. 
It doesn't mean good things 

30
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,000
can't happen for you. 
And we're going to talk a little

31
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:56,160
bit about how to maintain our 
consciousness even in the mix of

32
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:01,120
turmoil this week on the Awake 
Space Astrology podcast. 

33
00:02:09,479 --> 00:02:14,480
Man, it's really easy to go down
some deep dark rabbit holes when

34
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:19,240
it comes to looking at the outer
world stuff, when we look at all

35
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,960
the craziness that's happening 
out in the world. 

36
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:27,760
And I released the 2025 year 
ahead to patrons $5 and up. 

37
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:32,160
And that's yours to stream, 
however long you're AP train, 

38
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,840
OK. 
And it it's disconcerting. 

39
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,920
And I have to remind you, I 
actually changed nothing in 

40
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:42,880
November when I gave the follow 
up on those slides. 

41
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,640
Those slides are the original 
from June of 2025. 

42
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:50,440
And I started writing them in 
May, and it was a lot to hold on

43
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,720
to because this is a time of 
massive systemic change. 

44
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:58,360
We've been going through massive
systemic change for probably 30 

45
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,760
years, OK. 
And actually, it started in the 

46
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,120
19th century. 
But I'm not going to give you a 

47
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:10,440
boring history lesson, OK? 
And it is disconcerting to watch

48
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,880
everything we know be turned 
upside down. 

49
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,840
Nothing is going to remain 
constant, my friends, over the 

50
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,920
next several years. 
But that doesn't mean it's all 

51
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:24,080
going to be bad. 
I know it looks like it right 

52
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,360
now. 
I know we look at the world 

53
00:03:27,640 --> 00:03:31,080
crumbling around us. 
The Jenga tower has fallen. 

54
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,680
But remember, Jenga towers 
aren't stable to start with. 

55
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,640
That that's the thing you have 
to remember. 

56
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,120
And yet each one of us can build
our lives. 

57
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:45,760
I see clients in my office on 
Zoom three days a week. 

58
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,680
I've moved it to three days a 
week because I'm producing 

59
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,160
podcasts, writing a magazine, 
and we're about to start some 

60
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,080
more podcasts. 
I have some exciting news I want

61
00:03:54,080 --> 00:04:00,040
to share a little later. 
And they're going to have great 

62
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,000
times. 
They're building their lives 

63
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,960
forward, and so can you. 
OK, I know it can be hard when 

64
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:13,160
we look at social media and all 
the people, you know, with their

65
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,480
arguments and who you know. 
Yeah, there's a lot of 

66
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:22,960
shenanigans going on. 
You can still build a good life.

67
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,360
And that's some of what I'm 
going to talk about today when 

68
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,240
we talk about the eclipses and 
how to use that energy for you. 

69
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,000
It's easy for me to go down 
those deep, dark rabbit holes 

70
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,960
when I'm doing predictions. 
And I'm not just a predictive 

71
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,080
astrologer, I'm actually a 
progressive evolutionary 

72
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,720
astrologer. 
I focus on how to help people 

73
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:50,200
grow and evolve in their own 
this lifetime, not having to 

74
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,560
wait to reincarnate, but how to 
grow and expand in this lifetime

75
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,000
and live authentically. 
And let me tell you, with 

76
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,240
Neptune and Aries coming up, 
authentic vibes are everything. 

77
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:07,320
Knowing who you are, knowing 
what you really want, not living

78
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,040
a life described and defined by 
other people, but understanding 

79
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,680
at the core of who you are. 
And we all have social, cultural

80
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,160
programming we have to unpack to
get to that. 

81
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,040
It's like layers on the Lotus as
they unfold. 

82
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,320
It's like a Tootsie Roll pop. 
How many licks does it take to 

83
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,040
get to the inside of a Tootsie 
Pop 123? 

84
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,560
No, takes a few unless you bite 
it right. 

85
00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:34,000
And we just don't get the bite 
through life. 

86
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:39,400
But there are ways and 
techniques that we can use to 

87
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,480
evolve our understanding of 
solve, to help actualize and 

88
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:47,320
realize ourselves even in the 
admit in the midst of chaos. 

89
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,800
OK, In fact, there's a lot of 
opportunity in the midst of 

90
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:57,600
chaos and you have to develop 
your inner resources. 

91
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,920
You have to take stock of who 
you are. 

92
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,760
None of that imposter syndrome 
is going to get you through 

93
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,920
anything. 
None of it. 

94
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:10,840
And especially if you identify 
as female, especially so right 

95
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:13,760
now. 
It's I know we've all been 

96
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,480
trained to lean into, oh, I 
don't feel good enough. 

97
00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:20,920
I'm not strong enough, I'm not 
smart enough, other people know 

98
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,520
more than me, all of that. 
That's not humility, that's self

99
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,480
sabotage. 
And it doesn't help us. 

100
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:34,640
And this full moon in Virgo, 
this total eclipse of the moon, 

101
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,680
is a great time for pruning that
out and replacing it with the 

102
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,880
knowledge of our actual skills 
and abilities and talents. 

103
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,480
And don't you dare leave a 
comment saying you don't have 

104
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,960
any because I will delete it, 
OK? 

105
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,240
Pandering is not what I do. 
I'm not going to be codependent 

106
00:06:55,240 --> 00:07:00,120
with people. 
I will argue for your highest 

107
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,640
potential, OK? 
Not unrealistic expectations, 

108
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:07,080
not what I think you can do, but
what I see in you. 

109
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:13,400
And imagine what kind of world 
would it be if people actually 

110
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,400
knew their value, knew their 
worth? 

111
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,520
That's the world I want to live 
in. 

112
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,080
That's the world I want to be 
in. 

113
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,240
I don't want to be in a world 
where people only lean into the 

114
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,600
oppressive thoughts that society
and culture and family patterns 

115
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,480
have placed upon them. 
I want to live with a bunch of 

116
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,680
brave sons of bitches who are 
willing to take their lives into

117
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,440
their own hands and say, you 
know what? 

118
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,000
I'm going to risk a failure 
today. 

119
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,120
It takes a lot of courage to do 
that. 

120
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,080
And that above all else, my 
friends, is why I will never 

121
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,840
say, oh, the timelines changed. 
If I get a prediction wrong 

122
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:02,600
because I am 87% accurate, that 
means there's 13% of the time I 

123
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,520
am not. 
There could be a variety of 

124
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,840
reasons for that. 
It takes guts to stand up and be

125
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,640
in your integrity, and other 
people will poke and poke and 

126
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:18,000
poke and poke and poke and say 
you were wrong, but they never 

127
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:27,480
have the balls or the uteruses 
to show up in their own truth 

128
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:33,600
with their own integrity. 
And that's what I'm daring you 

129
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:41,520
to grab hold of this week. 
I know it's something, but I 

130
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:50,840
will argue for your unfoldment, 
for your highest expression of 

131
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,480
self in any given moment. 
And some days it's the day we 

132
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,600
scream into the void. 
Some days is all we can do is 

133
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,360
get up, put our feet on the 
floor, go brush your teeth. 

134
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,880
Celebrate that if that's the 
best you can do today. 

135
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:11,480
Wahoo, my mom has this rule. 
She has something to do every 

136
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,400
day and if she can do nothing 
else, she makes her bed. 

137
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,560
That's how I used to know she 
wasn't feeling good because I'd 

138
00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:20,360
call and I'd say, how are you? 
And she goes, well, I made my 

139
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,320
bed today. 
I'm like, because she's a busy 

140
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:31,450
bee. 
You have to build your inner 

141
00:09:31,450 --> 00:09:35,130
resources, my friends, to make 
it through these very 

142
00:09:35,130 --> 00:09:38,490
interesting times. 
They are destabilizing because 

143
00:09:38,490 --> 00:09:41,090
there is new structure that will
emerge. 

144
00:09:41,090 --> 00:09:44,410
And what is that structure going
to look like? 

145
00:09:44,410 --> 00:09:47,770
Well, what are we building? 
Because it's a collective 

146
00:09:47,770 --> 00:09:51,560
effort. 
But we can't work in unity until

147
00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:53,040
we authentically know who we 
are. 

148
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,120
And we have Neptune in Aries 
come along at the end of the 

149
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,480
month. 
Neptune is sitting at the 29th 

150
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:06,320
degree of Pisces. 
And so delusions and illusions 

151
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,560
are up, and a time for 
disillusion is up. 

152
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:15,560
Divine disillusion is up, and 
the full Moon in Pisces is going

153
00:10:15,560 --> 00:10:20,720
to divinely disillusion us even 
further. 

154
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,920
Now, if you've had Pluto already
crossed your Neptune, you 

155
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,920
already know what it's to, what 
it's like to be divinely 

156
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,480
disillusioned. 
And it's a good thing. 

157
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,720
It's where we see the fairy 
tales of life aren't true. 

158
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,040
Do you really need a knight in 
shining armor to pick you up and

159
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,040
rescue you? 
Do you? 

160
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,840
Or do you need that Princess in 
the tower to rescue? 

161
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,520
One of the worst movies I ever 
saw was the 3rd Shrek movie 

162
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,120
because it showed an alternative
reality for Fiona and where she 

163
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,840
was this kick ass badass, you 
know revolutionary. 

164
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,320
And the resolution to the film 
was her going back to the life 

165
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:14,760
where she was under appreciated,
taken for granted, and had given

166
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:19,440
her agency over to Shrek. 
I was pissed off. 

167
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,960
I was like, that's a stupid 
message to give kids. 

168
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,880
Why can't you be all that you 
can be? 

169
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,680
Why cannot you build upon your 
skill sets, your natural 

170
00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:34,840
abilities? 
We're always seeking something 

171
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:42,480
that's really, really hard to 
make it valuable when in fact, 

172
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,280
what we can do. 
You see the stuff that comes 

173
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,680
naturally and with ease and have
that be valuable. 

174
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,000
Everybody complaints about 
capitalism, and yet you fall 

175
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,200
into that trap every single day 
by devaluing your natural 

176
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,640
skills, talents and abilities 
and by refusing to even 

177
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,680
acknowledge that you have them. 
No, you're not in trouble with 

178
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:11,560
me. 
I know I can sound stern. 

179
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:21,600
It is time, my friends. 
It is time for us to stand up in

180
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:26,800
all of our glory and release the
chains of oppression that have 

181
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:32,400
been going on for not 100 years 
or 200 years or 300 years. 

182
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:38,240
Not even the advent of 
colonialism as we have seen it 

183
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,040
over the last 500 years goes 
back to the Bronze Age. 

184
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,880
Check out Gerda Lerner. 
It's women's History Month. 

185
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:53,080
Gerda Lerner was the founder of 
the field of women's history 

186
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,920
because it didn't exist before 
the 1970s. 

187
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,200
The Creation of the Patriarchy 
is a fabulous book. 

188
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,360
It was published in 1986 and I 
found it in my high school 

189
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:11,880
library and it changed my world 
view and it she didn't have a 

190
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,800
lot of answers, but she did 
offer a lot of questions and was

191
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:19,560
asking young women who were 
coming up into the sciences to 

192
00:13:19,560 --> 00:13:21,520
please study these things in the
future. 

193
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,440
And funny enough, the more that 
have, the more we have found out

194
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:30,240
that all those warriors, they 
weren't all men and it wasn't 

195
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:35,440
just Vikings. 
That made sense to me. 

196
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,320
I know what I've done to protect
my children. 

197
00:13:40,680 --> 00:13:43,640
And I'm not a very big person. 
I'm Pretty Little. 

198
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,880
I'm tall for my family. 
But I'm 55. 

199
00:13:53,560 --> 00:13:55,280
And you'll say, oh, well, that's
you, Lori. 

200
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,840
I've heard that my whole life. 
Well, that's you, Lori. 

201
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,560
You're special. 
No, I'm not. 

202
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,080
I'm human. 
I am human. 

203
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,000
You are human. 
We have these abilities and 

204
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,040
everybody has different 
abilities. 

205
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:15,880
I am not good at everything and 
I bring people together with me 

206
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:21,680
who are good at things I am not.
Some of that is physical 

207
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:27,920
limitation, my eyesight. 
So I bring in people who have 

208
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,920
better vision to catch the 
things I miss. 

209
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:39,160
But I lean into my knowledge, I 
lean into my strengths, and so 

210
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,160
should you. 
And contrary to what Mr. Musk 

211
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,040
has to say about empathy, he is 
wrong. 

212
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,280
Empathy is a very, very 
important aspect of our 

213
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,560
personalities, but it should not
be debilitating. 

214
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:57,040
There's a big difference between
true empathy and codependence. 

215
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,880
True empathy does not render us 
paralyzed. 

216
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,560
We should not rob people of 
their experiences by trying to 

217
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:11,240
remove their pain. 
We can support them in their 

218
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:17,880
journeys and stand side by side.
It isn't cold to look at a 

219
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:22,920
situation and understand it is 
not happening to you and yet 

220
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:29,360
feel sympathy for those going 
through it and be of service to 

221
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:35,640
those going through it. 
That's a skill, but I'm an 

222
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,800
empath. 
Me too. 

223
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:43,120
And with Neptune at the 29th 
degree of Pisces, it's very easy

224
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,320
to be energetically overwhelmed 
right now. 

225
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,360
Very easy to be energetically 
overwhelmed. 

226
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,800
I've been joking that you could 
wear a hematite suit of armor 

227
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,080
and good luck. 
The spigot won't turn off. 

228
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,600
Not until Neptune enters Aries 
and then it's going to feel 

229
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:06,040
really weird because that energy
is going to shift gears hard. 

230
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,360
And that happens on March 30th 
of 2025. 

231
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,200
It'll be very interesting and 
I'll talk about that more as we 

232
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:21,640
go along in the month because 
this week on the 13th slash 

233
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:28,320
14th, we have the full moon in 
Virgo, which is a total lunar 

234
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,160
eclipse with Mercury stationing 
retrograde. 

235
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,760
Lucky us. 
And I've already been kind of 

236
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,720
feeling the pre retrograde with 
some tech snafus. 

237
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:43,720
They've been kind of funny. 
I'll give you your survival 

238
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:48,640
guide. 
If you want the the full wine by

239
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:52,000
like Mercury through the houses,
then you can check out the awake

240
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,320
space astrology magazine in the 
Patreon. 

241
00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:02,480
But I want you to understand it 
does you no favors to discount 

242
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,560
your value, to discount your 
understanding of self, to 

243
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:12,720
discount your ambition. 
Just because some person out in 

244
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,920
the world says you're not 
valuable because you're this 

245
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,920
kind of person doesn't make it 
true. 

246
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,839
Since it's women hands treats my
grandmother. 

247
00:17:24,319 --> 00:17:29,240
She was a trailblazer and a 
pioneer when it came to working 

248
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,360
in the world in state and county
government. 

249
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,680
And when I was in high school, I
was railing against misogyny and

250
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,000
it things weren't fair and it 
wasn't equal. 

251
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,440
And I had been shut out of a 
computer science class because 

252
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,280
the teacher had said I would be 
a distraction. 

253
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:47,480
And I didn't even know what that
meant. 

254
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,480
I'd known those guys since we 
were like 10 years old. 

255
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:51,800
And I'm like, what are you 
talking about? 

256
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:58,480
I had no clue what it meant as a
woman or young lady to be a 

257
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:04,840
distraction. 
I was butt toothed with braces 

258
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,480
and thick coke bottles. 
If you think my glasses are 

259
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,600
thick today, man, they could not
compress lenses back then. 

260
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:16,720
They were glass and they were so
heavy they pushed my nose down 

261
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,920
and scar my nose. 
I'm like what are you talking 

262
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,520
about? 
You're just, I'm one of the 

263
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:22,880
guys. 
What are you talking about? 

264
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,160
Which honestly, those guys would
have thought that too. 

265
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,480
Well, I found out later they 
didn't think that, but they were

266
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,440
gentlemen. 
Anyway. 

267
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:37,080
I I was really angry because I 
really wanted to learn to code 

268
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,960
more than I knew how. 
I knew how to code in basic, but

269
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:41,960
I knew I needed to learn more, 
right? 

270
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:49,040
This is like 1983. 
And my grandma said, Lori, you 

271
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,800
don't get equality by asking for
it. 

272
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:58,320
You get it by taking it. 
ACT equal man. 

273
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:03,480
Those words have rang with me my
whole life and I didn't 

274
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,680
understand them. 
At 14 I was like how do I act 

275
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:07,640
equal? 
I don't. 

276
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:14,760
I don't understand this. 
I didn't. 

277
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:20,000
I took a long time, and those 
words echo all the time with me.

278
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:29,450
You know, all the time she was 
in Aries. 

279
00:19:29,450 --> 00:19:33,730
She was a little, she was short,
like her hair made her 5 feet 

280
00:19:33,730 --> 00:19:38,690
tall because she kept it floofy.
But man, you didn't mess with 

281
00:19:38,690 --> 00:19:40,650
her. 
She was a powerful lady. 

282
00:19:45,780 --> 00:19:48,640
We have Venus in Aries 
retrograde, and I want to talk a

283
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,000
little bit more about that on 
the podcast today too, because I

284
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,560
think a lot of people don't 
understand that the stuff 

285
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,920
blowing up right now isn't 
screwing you over. 

286
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,000
It's opening pathways. 
The world is changing. 

287
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,400
That is a fact. 
And it is not the first time the

288
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:13,800
world has changed. 
And in change is opportunity, in

289
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:25,520
crisis is opportunity. 
We don't help ourselves by 

290
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,840
creating further obstacles with 
our mindset. 

291
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:39,320
Mindset is so so important and I
get that some people don't want 

292
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,280
to see the reality of the world 
that is, but I can guarantee you

293
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,040
spirituality isn't about 
deluding yourselves from the 

294
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,240
actual facts of what's going on 
in life. 

295
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,560
Spirituality has nothing to do 
with kumbaya and living this 

296
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,800
pious life. 
You're not supposed to not be in

297
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,400
the world. 
That doesn't make it spiritual. 

298
00:21:00,120 --> 00:21:03,360
You're not here to be 
disembodied and not connected. 

299
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,440
We are all children of Gaia, 
every single one of us. 

300
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,840
And what is Gaia? 
Gaia is Earth, we are children 

301
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:18,560
of this planet and we are here 
for a purpose, and that purpose 

302
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:23,160
isn't necessarily to lead an 
army or lead a charge or be the 

303
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:28,160
Liberator or be the great 
business person or be the great 

304
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,520
musician or actor or be famous. 
It can be to have a range of 

305
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:37,000
experiences and it is through 
our perceptional perceptional 

306
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:42,040
lens. 
It is through our perceptual 

307
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,800
lens that we craft and shape our
reality. 

308
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:54,480
Change your switch up your 
perception and you change your 

309
00:21:54,480 --> 00:22:00,600
world. 
I didn't say it would be easy, 

310
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,960
but with this full moon in Virgo
and that eclipse, you have a 

311
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:11,040
remarkable opportunity to prune 
away the thought forms that are 

312
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,280
habitual. 
That holds you back. 

313
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:20,080
The self criticism, the worry, 
the needing to be perfect before

314
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,720
you can start anything. 
Because the people who are 

315
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,840
successful are always willing to
risk failure. 

316
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:40,320
Always willing to risk failure. 
They'll speak up and they're OK 

317
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:50,440
with not knowing the answers. 
It takes courage to be 

318
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,280
authentically yourself and not 
fit into the mould of someone 

319
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:59,200
else's designs. 
It takes courage and we all have

320
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:05,160
it. 
Don't let the collective miasma 

321
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,960
convince you you have none. 
You do You're here, you're 

322
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,520
listening to this, you've 
aligned into the space. 

323
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,520
It's what you needed to hear. 
You have the courage to take one

324
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,040
more step, one more breath and 
try again. 

325
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:32,280
That is all that is asked of us.
Railing against the what isness 

326
00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:34,720
of reality isn't going to change
it. 

327
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:45,520
Action will So let's talk about 
how you can use the energy of 

328
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:52,480
the full moon in Virgo that 
happens to be a lunar eclipse to

329
00:23:52,480 --> 00:24:08,480
your advantage. 
Eclipses can sound really scary,

330
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:12,640
especially when people are 
equating them from the mundane 

331
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:16,440
to the personal. 
But you see, on the personal 

332
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,800
level, it's a full moon on 
steroids. 

333
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:23,280
On the mundane level, which is 
the outer world, it's the bigger

334
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,000
happenings. 
Things that have less agency 

335
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,200
than you do, they can be a 
little bigger. 

336
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,920
We will see natural events. 
In fact, science is proving that

337
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,640
all the time that, you know, 
they've just recently in the 

338
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,440
last few years been talking 
about an occurrence of more 

339
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,880
seismic activity in coordination
with eclipses. 

340
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,640
OK. 
And we have been seeing it's 

341
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,360
going to be a little more 
seismic this week has been 

342
00:24:51,360 --> 00:24:54,160
pretty active so far and it's 
only Monday. 

343
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,520
Notice these haven't necessarily
been where people live. 

344
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,360
These been in the middle of the 
ocean or somewhere remote. 

345
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,720
It it, it's part of how the 
world works. 

346
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:12,160
Seismic activity is 
disconcerting to us as human 

347
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,600
beings and can be devastating to
human beings, but it is part of 

348
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:21,600
how the Earth operates on an 
individual level. 

349
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:26,280
You have agency. 
So let's understand a few things

350
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,640
about eclipses. 
I wrote about this in the Awake 

351
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,120
Space Astrology magazine's March
issue, because we have two 

352
00:25:32,120 --> 00:25:35,360
eclipses this month. 
We have a total lunar eclipse 

353
00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:38,040
and we have a partial solar 
eclipse. 

354
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:43,400
Now the total lunar eclipse is 
visible in North and South 

355
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:50,120
America, across the Atlantic 
into Eastern Europe, a little 

356
00:25:50,120 --> 00:25:52,160
bit of the Levant and Western 
Africa. 

357
00:25:54,200 --> 00:26:01,360
It skips WA, OK, but the rest of
Australia gets to see it, as 

358
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:08,840
does parts of East Asia, OK. 
So it's going to be very 

359
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,080
interesting. 
That's a lot of visibility. 

360
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,080
Eclipses are only eclipses when 
they're visible. 

361
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:19,000
That's a major rule. 
So all the people who make a big

362
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,480
deal, like if you're in LA, 
don't worry about that solar 

363
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,640
eclipse that's coming up at the 
end of the month because it's 

364
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:30,440
not visible where you live. 
And I will cover that couple 

365
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:37,480
weeks from now, OK, if it's not 
visible, it is not an eclipse. 

366
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,840
Now the total lunar eclipse is 
very visible in all of North and

367
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,000
South. 
Well, not all of South America, 

368
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,440
kind of like misses Brazil and a
little and a little change above

369
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:54,000
and below. 
I mean, the totality of it those

370
00:26:55,320 --> 00:27:00,200
anyway, if I'll put them, I'll 
put the the map in the Patreon 

371
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:05,000
post for this podcast, so which 
I put out publicly so you guys 

372
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:10,480
can check that out. 
Visibility matters. 

373
00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:14,600
The reason why eclipses are 
considered malefic in 

374
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,840
traditional astrology is because
it usually meant some bad news 

375
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:23,000
for leaders because there might 
have been big storms coming up 

376
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,560
or there might be conflict and 
wars. 

377
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,320
Nobody's happy when that 
happens. 

378
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,680
It could be economic failings, 
crop failures, things like that,

379
00:27:33,120 --> 00:27:39,000
which usually didn't happen to 
help an emperor or a king or a 

380
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:43,200
general. 
On an individual level, those of

381
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:48,320
us who do not hold the CEO of a 
major corporation's rank, for 

382
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:53,920
those of us who are not world 
leaders, as important as we are 

383
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,720
as individuals, but we don't 
hold a role that impacts the 

384
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,960
collective, which is the moon, 
OK? 

385
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:05,160
The moon represents the people. 
And so the lunar eclipse is the 

386
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:13,320
moon, OK, having a moment with 
the sun and it turns, it'll turn

387
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,560
red. 
And, you know, so imagine 

388
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:20,440
there's no light pollution. 
You're in a village, there's no 

389
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,720
electricity, and it's very dark,
and you can see the Milky Way 

390
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,520
and the moon comes out and it's 
blood red. 

391
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,000
How'd that make you feel when 
you didn't have a scientific 

392
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,520
explanation? 
You won't be like, shit's going 

393
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,640
down. 
This is this is not good. 

394
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,760
Every single culture in the 
world says don't go outside to 

395
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,360
look at an eclipse. 
It was bad luck. 

396
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,960
And some of that with the solar 
eclipse is you'll burn your 

397
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:54,240
retinas so you go blind. 
That was really bad luck back in

398
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,000
the day because it was very hard
to survive. 

399
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,760
OK, it's hard enough now. 
Nobody accommodates provision. 

400
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:18,040
Nobody. 
If you know you know the The 

401
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,440
energy of an eclipse on a 
personal level, though, can be 

402
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,880
absolutely empowering if you 
shift your mindset to it. 

403
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,760
You got to attune your energy to
it. 

404
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,120
OK, Now what do I mean by attune
your energy? 

405
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,920
Well, that means you tune in. 
OK, you tune into it. 

406
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:40,920
And that means you need to tune 
up. 

407
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,920
It's not high vibes only. 
OK, you know, I don't roll that 

408
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:50,840
way, but you got to tune up. 
You can't be thinking nobody 

409
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,440
likes me, everybody hates me, 
nobody does what I say, 

410
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:59,360
everybody ignores me. 
I might as well go eat worms and

411
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,120
be able to tune into the 
frequency you need to empower 

412
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,360
yourself. 
You're not there. 

413
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,440
Your stream of thought is in the
problem thinking, not the 

414
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:15,960
solution thinking. 
OK, so if you want to TuneIn, 

415
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:28,680
you need to be like, what do 
what skills do I have that I 

416
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:34,640
don't value enough? 
What are the things I say? 

417
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,120
What are the where am I 
technically good at something? 

418
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,360
But say, oh, I'm just good at 
that. 

419
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:42,880
That's, you know, just something
I do right. 

420
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,880
Whether it is how you cook 
meatballs and chicken soup or 

421
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:55,720
how you crochet a blanket or how
you write poetry or how you do 

422
00:30:55,720 --> 00:31:01,280
art or how you do spreadsheets 
or how you organize. 

423
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,160
Oh, I'm just good at that. 
That's that's nothing. 

424
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:10,240
That's just something I do. 
Ask yourself, what it where do I

425
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,240
do that? 
Because you could prune that 

426
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:18,960
thought process and then and 
make note of your skill set. 

427
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:23,000
Virgo is the technician. 
It's about precision. 

428
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:32,760
It's skilled, skilled labor, OK,
And skilled labor can include 

429
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,680
being really good with your 
hands, a plumber and 

430
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,280
electrician, being good at handy
stuff. 

431
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,600
I had Kim on the podcast last 
week and she was, she learned 

432
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,080
how to use power tools and was 
like, wait, why do I think I 

433
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,960
can't use these? 
Of course I can. 

434
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:53,720
I'm capable. 
Are you good at learning? 

435
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,960
Because just because you don't 
know how to do something doesn't

436
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,880
mean you won't forever know how.
Being good at learning is a 

437
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,720
skill. 
Being good at listening is a 

438
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,120
skill. 
Being good at translating 

439
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:13,080
meaning is a skill. 
Writing down your special 

440
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:22,080
interests and instead of letting
a diagnosis of any kind define 

441
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,240
you. 
And I know a lot of people get 

442
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:28,280
unhappy with me when I say this,
and I'm OK with that because you

443
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,160
see, I used to too. 
I always say there's five years 

444
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,760
of my life I'd really like back 
because that's when I was 

445
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,640
attached to the labels. 
I identified with my pain story,

446
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,360
I identified with, quote UN 
quote, my trauma. 

447
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:51,120
I identified with the labels and
the diagnosis and it held me 

448
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,600
back. 
It was oppressive. 

449
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,800
Not identifying with them 
doesn't make them go away, but 

450
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,720
it disempowers them a little 
bit. 

451
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,560
They're not running the show. 
Your mind isn't running you. 

452
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,720
You run it no matter who you 
are, because that is how human 

453
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:15,200
brains actually function. 
And So what if you have a busy 

454
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,400
brain and your mind is always 
going off at 1,000,000 miles an 

455
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:22,440
hour? 
Not everybody's supposed to 

456
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,920
think about one thing at a time.
Not everybody's supposed to sit 

457
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,280
still for 8 hours a day. 
In fact, I will argue that is 

458
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,320
the most toxic thing in the 
world. 

459
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:39,960
Not everybody is supposed to sit
quietly and not question. 

460
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,920
Not everybody's meant to not 
fidget. 

461
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,640
In fact, I think more of us are 
designed to fidget than not. 

462
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,800
I think most people are fairly 
kinesthetic. 

463
00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:02,360
Not everybody, obviously. 
I urge you to find Howard 

464
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,360
Gardner's theory of multiple 
intelligences. 

465
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:13,560
I urge you because we're all 
smart in different ways. 

466
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,840
It's not just about being good 
at writing your verbal skills, 

467
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:23,600
speaking, or math. 
There's so many. 

468
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:29,080
Some people are just naturally 
good at at at being outdoors. 

469
00:34:30,679 --> 00:34:35,159
Some people are naturally good 
at mechanical things. 

470
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:41,080
Some people are naturally good 
at rhythmic movement. 

471
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:46,360
Some people are naturally good 
at catching undercurrents and 

472
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,760
tones. 
Some people are incredibly 

473
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,400
masterful at understanding other
people. 

474
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,639
Those interpersonal skills. 
Some people are really good at 

475
00:34:56,639 --> 00:35:00,240
understanding themselves. 
Those are all forms of 

476
00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:04,760
intelligence. 
Some people are athletic and 

477
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:10,680
some people are what we would 
think of traditionally 

478
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,920
intelligent book smart. 
Some people are street smart. 

479
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,680
Some people have more wisdom. 
You know, like I look at an 

480
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:21,160
astrology chart a lot like you 
look at a character sheet DD, 

481
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,640
you know, you've got your 
constitution score, you got your

482
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,320
wisdom score, your intelligence 
score, your Charisma score, your

483
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,160
strength score. 
And everybody's going to roll 

484
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:40,240
life a little differently. 
If you're not counting what 

485
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:44,400
you're good at, it's it's going 
to be problematic if you 

486
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:48,000
continue to oppress yourself. 
And I'm not saying don't take 

487
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,920
your mental health into account,
Absolutely take your mental 

488
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,840
health into account. 
But understand it does not 

489
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:59,640
identify who you are. 
It is an aspect of self, but it 

490
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:05,240
is not defining of self. 
It's a big difference and that 

491
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:14,720
way of thinking changes it. 
There's no shame to our mental 

492
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:20,840
health. 
We all have struggle, anxiety, 

493
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:31,400
depression, PTSDOCDADHD. 
Some of that I don't consider a 

494
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,680
problem. 
Some of it if it gets in the way

495
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:41,120
of living your life it does. 
Like it all gets lumped together

496
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:45,160
as disorders. 
And what makes it disorderly? 

497
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,920
Is it a disorder because it's 
disrupting your ability to be a 

498
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,240
cog in the wheel of a society 
that thinks we need to be 

499
00:36:52,240 --> 00:37:03,280
autonomatons, machines, robots? 
What if you could live your life

500
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:12,600
fundamentally authentic? 
It'll feel almost like 

501
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:18,080
blasphemy. 
I know because I've built mine. 

502
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:23,160
It wasn't easy, and I don't 
think everybody should do what I

503
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:29,320
did. 
I just couldn't live that way 

504
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:37,880
anymore. 
I couldn't live compromised from

505
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:43,560
all of who I am and I certainly 
he was a little messy and a 

506
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:47,520
little bumpy to get here. 
That's why I help other people 

507
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:59,670
unfold themselves maybe a little
more gently in chaos as 

508
00:37:59,670 --> 00:38:04,110
opportunity and those who can 
hold their consciousness as 

509
00:38:04,110 --> 00:38:05,870
steady as possible. 
And it doesn't mean you don't 

510
00:38:05,870 --> 00:38:07,070
slip. 
I cry plenty. 

511
00:38:07,070 --> 00:38:10,750
I look at the state of the world
and I go, Oh my God, no wonder 

512
00:38:10,750 --> 00:38:16,040
it was murky. 
No wonder. 

513
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:25,640
How could we conceive of such 
dastardliness when we know 

514
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:31,600
better? 
And of course, it looks plain as

515
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,120
day in retrospect. 
We can look back and follow the 

516
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,840
lines and go, oh, there it is. 
But hindsight is always 2020. 

517
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:42,080
Shoulda woulda coulda can't live
life based on that. 

518
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,120
All we do is get to walk 
forward. 

519
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:49,000
Even though time is non linear 
from a quantum perspective, in a

520
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,640
physical perspective the 
physical illusion that we live 

521
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,680
in it is linear. 
We, we are born and we have an 

522
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,800
expiration date that we don't 
know. 

523
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,560
And everything else we do in 
between is living. 

524
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,960
And it can be scary when things 
are falling apart and the things

525
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,440
we've relied on, the people 
we've relied on, the wolves 

526
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:17,040
we've relied on look like 
they're going away. 

527
00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:21,200
But ask yourself what's opening 
up for me. 

528
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:28,120
I was, I was talking to my 
daughter Sarah, who will be 

529
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,520
doing more podcasts with me. 
It's just we're in another 

530
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:37,360
shift. 
And she said, you know, this 

531
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:41,840
person said this thing about me,
and I'm like, yeah, I'm going to

532
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,520
turn that into real energy that 
works for me. 

533
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,520
And I'm like, wow, I love that 
attitude. 

534
00:39:48,240 --> 00:39:50,280
Take that shade and turn it 
around. 

535
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,440
What you throw at me, I shall 
transmute. 

536
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:56,840
What you throw at me, I shall 
transmute. 

537
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,720
What looks like defeat shall be 
a victory. 

538
00:40:03,720 --> 00:40:07,160
The thing about Virgo energy, 
and as we approach this Virgo 

539
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,200
full moon, this is something I 
want you to remember. 

540
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,520
Virgo energy often looks outside
of itself because you know, it's

541
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,680
the healer, it's it's the 
technician, it's looking at the 

542
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,000
field of battle and going who 
can I save today? 

543
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,600
Who can't I save? 
And I got to pick the people I 

544
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,800
can save because triage is like 
that. 

545
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:31,800
It's not super funny, OK? 
You have to step back and be a 

546
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,880
little bit detached from it all,
and you have to look and go, OK.

547
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,560
And it doesn't mean Virgos don't
have compassion, by the way. 

548
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,600
Virgos are often some of the 
most compassionate people I've 

549
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,480
ever known. 
But they will let somebody fall 

550
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,080
on their ass if that's what that
person needs to do. 

551
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,160
They will not rescue them 
necessarily from the 

552
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,880
consequences of their actions. 
And that can be the most 

553
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:55,680
compassionate act because being 
codependent with people where 

554
00:40:55,680 --> 00:41:00,320
you try to take responsibility 
for their path and their actions

555
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,560
can get you both hurt. 
Take it from a Libra man who 

556
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,640
took a long time to learn these 
lessons. 

557
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,640
We cannot take responsibility 
for other people's pathways. 

558
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:16,080
But Virgo does this. 
They will project onto other 

559
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,560
people their attention and their
energy and forget about 

560
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,720
themselves. 
And we all have Virgo in our 

561
00:41:23,720 --> 00:41:27,160
chart. 
We all have all 12 signs in our 

562
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,800
chart. 
OK, If you don't believe me, 

563
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,200
watch my intro to the Natal 
chart video on YouTube, OK? 

564
00:41:36,240 --> 00:41:41,200
You can also find it in my 
Patreon, OK, It's public, it's 

565
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,120
free. 
Just watch that because you'll 

566
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,400
figure it out. 
You have all 12 signs, even if 

567
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,600
you don't have any placements 
there, OK? 

568
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:52,720
That energy is in the chart. 
We all have all 12. 

569
00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:56,600
So just because you don't like a
sign doesn't mean you don't got 

570
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,760
that energy. 
And in fact, a lot of what we 

571
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,520
don't like in others is a 
projection of what we don't like

572
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,520
in ourselves. 
Ouch. 

573
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:12,680
But what I'm going to tell you 
is this Virgo full moon is going

574
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:17,120
to show us a really big mirror 
of where we've been putting our 

575
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,480
energy into other people's 
hopes, dreams and aspirations 

576
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,840
instead of our own. 
It's going to show us where we 

577
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,400
need to prune the oppressive 
thoughts, where we discount our 

578
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:33,560
technical abilities and skills. 
I was talking to my BFF Kirsten.

579
00:42:33,720 --> 00:42:37,040
So Kirsten Soga, the greatest 
chocolatier in the world. 

580
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:42,160
She is amazing. 
She's also a hell of a damn good

581
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:46,960
life coach and she helps me out 
in the mystery school, which has

582
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,800
a new name coming up soon. 
So hold on guys, there's some 

583
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:54,360
cool stuff coming up for that. 
But she is effectively, I've 

584
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,160
made her headmistress basically 
because it's a cool title. 

585
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,600
And she's been on the journey 
with me for all but two years of

586
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:08,600
that process that developed, 
that helps people actualize and 

587
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:13,480
realize and develop their 
projects and build their lives 

588
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,920
in meaningful ways. 
But I was talking to her the 

589
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,560
other day and she said, oh, I'm 
going to make this coupon. 

590
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,880
And I was like, OK, cool. 
And she goes, you know what? 

591
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,040
You taught me something really 
important. 

592
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:28,920
And Kirsten's older than me and 
we came to technology at 

593
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:33,760
different times of life. 
And way back in the 80s, you, 

594
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,880
you could screw up a computer 
really easy by hitting the wrong

595
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:38,720
button. 
So all of you people who are 

596
00:43:38,720 --> 00:43:41,920
like thinking your parents are 
wizzies when it comes to tech, 

597
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,920
No, no, they probably formatted 
their hard drive by accident. 

598
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,760
You really could screw things up
and trying to convince people 

599
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,560
who might have lost a job or 
been threatened with job loss 

600
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:56,200
because they formatted a hard 
drive, they can be traumatic. 

601
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:03,920
And so I have worked with her 
because I was her teacher years 

602
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,800
ago before we became friends and
I was working with her 

603
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,320
technology with technology and I
was like, click around, you 

604
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,000
can't hurt it. 
Click around, you can't get it 

605
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,240
wrong. 
You can always undo something. 

606
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,920
You're not able to get into the 
part that you can hurt things 

607
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,000
with anymore. 
You're you're going to be fine. 

608
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,080
Just click around and learn from
experience. 

609
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,400
You don't have to know it right 
away and it might take a second.

610
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:28,240
You just have to be a little 
patient. 

611
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,160
And she's been working on her 
website. 

612
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:35,800
And she was like, you taught me 
that I could just be patient 

613
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,080
with myself and click around and
I didn't have to know the answer

614
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,680
right away. 
And it was OK. 

615
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:44,000
And I was like, damn, I love 
that I taught you that. 

616
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:53,560
That is the grace you need to 
give yourself on anything. 

617
00:44:53,720 --> 00:44:55,760
Like if you're like, I'm not 
good at gardening. 

618
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:01,120
Did you kill 10 plants? 
I've killed a lot more than that

619
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:08,600
in the 30 years I've been 
gardening a lot more. 

620
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,720
And I killed Ivy in college. 
That's a talent. 

621
00:45:12,240 --> 00:45:14,560
I well, I didn't water it all at
all. 

622
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,680
I forgot to water it. 
So that'll kill a plant over 

623
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,440
watering a coke. 
Plant the wrong soil. 

624
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:29,120
Kill a plant, plants die. 
They germinate easy and it's OK.

625
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,560
Just 'cause you weren't born 
good at it doesn't mean you 

626
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,640
can't learn the skills. 
I wasn't born good at astrology.

627
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:41,520
I treated it like a language 
because it exhibits qualities of

628
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:46,800
language and I taught myself 
alongside my teacher. 

629
00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:51,800
He was there to guide me and I 
studied treating it like a 

630
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:55,120
language, which means I did 
reiterative practice, meaning I 

631
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,040
did it over and over and over 
and over until I got it. 

632
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:09,180
And then experience this Full 
moon in Virgo is powerful. 

633
00:46:09,180 --> 00:46:14,060
It is an opportunity to prune 
oppressive thoughts because when

634
00:46:14,060 --> 00:46:17,020
you project your consciousness 
onto what the other guy is 

635
00:46:17,020 --> 00:46:19,700
doing, you're not looking at 
what you're doing. 

636
00:46:20,220 --> 00:46:23,480
When you're so busy in other 
people's business, like they're 

637
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,600
not meeting their full 
potential, they're not taking 

638
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,120
care of themselves, they're not 
going to therapy, They're no 

639
00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:31,320
have the right therapy. 
They are not living up to their 

640
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:32,840
potential. 
They're not advocating for 

641
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,480
themselves. 
They don't have the right job. 

642
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,400
They're not doing their 
self-care, they're not eating 

643
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:39,080
right, they're not blah, blah, 
blah, blah blah blah, blah blah 

644
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:40,360
blah, blah, blah blah, blah, 
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, 

645
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:46,240
blah, blah, blah. 
That's none of your business. 

646
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,600
Your business is you. 
It's not our job. 

647
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:58,800
It is not our job to foist 
advice on other people. 

648
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:04,440
Unsolicited advice is like one 
of my biggest pet peeves. 

649
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,480
If I didn't ask for help, don't.
Don't jump in. 

650
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:11,800
Don't try to rescue me. 
I like to learn by trial and 

651
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:13,920
error. 
I don't need to get it right the

652
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:15,600
first time. 
I don't care if I mispronounce a

653
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,200
word because I learned it 
through reading. 

654
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:24,240
Somebody corrects me. 
Like OK thanks, but you said 

655
00:47:24,240 --> 00:47:29,880
that wrong so the fuck what? 
It's learning. 

656
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,560
We're human beings, we are 
designed to learn. 

657
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:36,520
We are not designed to be 
perfect. 

658
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:39,800
Virtue is one of your greatest 
shadows. 

659
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,640
Because if you're worried about 
being seen as virtuous, if 

660
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:46,080
you're worried about being seen 
as above reproach, if you're 

661
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,840
always afraid of what everybody 
else is thinking about you and 

662
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:55,320
you're busy thinking about what 
everybody else is doing, it's 

663
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:59,360
not actual virtue. 
Virtue is your good just to be 

664
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:00,080
good. 
That's it. 

665
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,520
You don't care who sees it. 
You don't care who notices. 

666
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,000
You just do the right thing to 
do the right thing. 

667
00:48:09,240 --> 00:48:11,720
I mean, think about those guys 
who go on the street and give a 

668
00:48:11,720 --> 00:48:14,840
homeless person, you know, like 
$10,000 or get a million. 

669
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,200
I think it's great they're 
helping a person, but did they 

670
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,960
need to make a video about it 
and be like, oh, look at me, I'm

671
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,480
great. 
And everybody's like, Oh my God,

672
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,480
you're so great. 
That's not virtue. 

673
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:29,160
That's performative. 
Virtue is just fucking doing it 

674
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:38,880
and maybe asking the person what
is it that you need and 

675
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:45,760
listening to them before you say
you need this because you're 

676
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,880
going to have a better chance of
them having overall long term 

677
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,600
success by actually working with
versus doing for. 

678
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,560
I'm not saying don't help 
people, I'm just saying build a 

679
00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:00,800
relationship. 
Listen to their actual wants and

680
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,720
needs and desires because 
sometimes if you are over 

681
00:49:03,720 --> 00:49:07,840
generous or you do for somebody 
it can be overwhelming to them. 

682
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:12,960
It's a big change and maybe you 
have to massage into it, right? 

683
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,360
You have to warm up into it. 
The same with ourselves. 

684
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:20,520
If you have oppressive thought 
habits where you don't think 

685
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,920
you're good enough, you're 
worried about what other people 

686
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,280
think. 
You feel like you have to reach 

687
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,760
these arbitrarily, you know, 
high standards of perfection, 

688
00:49:30,240 --> 00:49:33,280
that you have to be in the right
relationship, that somebody's 

689
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:37,680
got to be like approving of you,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. 

690
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:41,400
You may not be able to switch 
to. 

691
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:43,640
I love myself. 
I'm totally all that. 

692
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:45,800
I love my skills. 
I know I'm good at stuff and 

693
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:47,280
have all the confidence in the 
world. 

694
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,320
You might want to do some baby 
steps. 

695
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:53,320
The good news is Virgo energy is
about process. 

696
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:59,200
It is about the step by step 
learning of technique, the step 

697
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,600
by step process of doing 
something well. 

698
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,040
It's about precision, and 
precision has to deal with 

699
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:11,800
process. 
OK, You can leverage the energy 

700
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:21,840
of this full moon that is also a
lunar eclipse by noticing where 

701
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:25,520
your attention is going and when
you're taking it off yourself 

702
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,160
because it's uncomfortable and 
it's easier to look outside of 

703
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:31,200
you. 
It's so much easier to look at 

704
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:33,920
what everybody else is fucking 
up instead of you. 

705
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:41,400
It's so much easier to point 
fingers at what other people 

706
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:45,720
aren't doing for themselves. 
Yeah, do what I say, not as I 

707
00:50:45,720 --> 00:50:46,640
do. 
Right. 

708
00:50:51,720 --> 00:50:55,120
I mean, and you don't need to 
treat it like a confessional or 

709
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,240
a testimony. 
I see that a lot in spiritual 

710
00:50:58,240 --> 00:51:02,040
species because so many people 
left the evangelical movement 

711
00:51:02,720 --> 00:51:05,800
and and they'll come in and 
they're like, I have to testify,

712
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,280
you know, they may not say it 
that way, but like I have to 

713
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:13,800
say, I, I got too deep into my 
shadow work and I got lost along

714
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:15,240
the way. 
Why? 

715
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:24,600
As we say in the mystery school,
in the ANI process, OK, the ANI 

716
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:29,680
process, which helps you align 
and nurture so you can make an 

717
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:37,360
impact. 
All right, the power is in the 

718
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,960
noticing. 
The perfection is in the 

719
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:46,800
correction. 
The power is in the noticing. 

720
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,240
Oh crap. 
I do that. 

721
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:52,640
The perfection is in the 
correction. 

722
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,440
What do I want to do 
differently? 

723
00:51:55,240 --> 00:52:00,120
How can I think differently 
about myself if there if there 

724
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:05,400
were no chains on my hands and 
and ankles and I was free to do 

725
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,920
anything I wanted it, If money 
was no object, what would I 

726
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:14,680
actually be doing with my life 
instead of thinking I'm stuck, I

727
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,000
can't go anywhere, I don't have 
this. 

728
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:21,720
Instead of taking inventory of 
what is fucked up in your life, 

729
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,240
what if you built a different 
inventory? 

730
00:52:26,240 --> 00:52:31,800
What would it like to feel 
confident inside of myself? 

731
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,280
What if I have all the skills I 
need to take the next step? 

732
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,960
What is my logical next step of 
action? 

733
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:43,040
If I can't do all of what I want
to do right now, what is the one

734
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,520
thing I can do to move me 
forward? 

735
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:52,000
And that's not bullshit, that's 
just honestly how actually we we

736
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:58,840
become successful. 
This full moon is hitting my 

737
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:05,360
Pluto and my S node. 
I'm I'm very fascinated to 

738
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:09,360
observe what happens around it. 
I kind of have a feeling I know 

739
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:14,760
what will happen. 
I have secured a place to rent 

740
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:20,200
to build a studio for the awake 
space and I I couldn't talk 

741
00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:24,800
about it last week because they 
were having a vote on Monday and

742
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,920
because it's a local Business 
Association who's going to rent 

743
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,680
out the building. 
They they have. 

744
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,800
And it's cute little store 
friend. 

745
00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,520
And trust me, if you're a 
patron, you'll get to see all 

746
00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,840
the behind the scenes stuff as 
we build sets and get ready for 

747
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,400
Lori Thinks out Loud and Miles 
to Success and Lori the story 

748
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:45,480
lady and all the other fun 
podcasts. 

749
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:48,680
I want to start. 
No, I'm not going to stop doing 

750
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:50,640
astrology. 
There's just other stuff I want 

751
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,520
to do too. 
And plus, we'll be producing my 

752
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:55,160
daughter and I'll be producing 
other people's podcasts as well.

753
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,160
So I'm bringing on astrologers 
to read at the awake space at 

754
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:08,400
Woke astrology.com. 
I'm not going to quit reading, 

755
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:11,920
it's just I've pared down my 
schedule so I can do other 

756
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:19,480
things that enliven me. 
OK, so it's a cool story and 

757
00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:21,080
I'll tell you how I manifested 
this. 

758
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:25,320
So I moved here in July to be 
with my parents, who are 

759
00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:29,120
elderly. 
They don't need a ton of help. 

760
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,680
They're, they're very, very 
independent people. 

761
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:34,880
But my brother and I were both a
little concerned. 

762
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:38,760
And I was like, you know, I 
don't want to just come out for 

763
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:42,200
emergencies. 
And we've done so much healing 

764
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:45,400
as a family. 
Everybody's done their work or 

765
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:50,760
is doing their work right? 
And I was no contact for almost 

766
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:54,880
20 years. 
I was a little bit of a hipster 

767
00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:57,880
before it was popular. 
Trust me, all of you who are 

768
00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:59,800
here. 
But it's your mom, it's your 

769
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:02,640
dad, it's your parents. 
You should honor them. 

770
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:12,640
Yeah, I know it's exhausting, 
but we've done the work. 

771
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:17,080
And if we haven't cleaned it all
the way up, it's in process. 

772
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:21,440
And it was important to me. 
I'm a cancer. 

773
00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:26,080
So it's a, it's A1 Shetland pony
town. 

774
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,240
It's not even a one horse town. 
It's a pretty small town. 

775
00:55:29,240 --> 00:55:33,320
It's a pretty small place. 
And there's the coolest store 

776
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:37,920
friends, the coolest store 
friends in this Wyoming town. 

777
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:42,120
And I would take my hot girl 
away and I'd look and be like, 

778
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,320
you know, one of those would be 
fun to rent. 

779
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:49,080
Because I really can't take us 
to the next level with the awake

780
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:52,480
space sitting with my blurred 
background. 

781
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:58,760
I can come out cooler than this.
We can go to the next level. 

782
00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:02,320
And there's so much I want to 
teach. 

783
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:07,040
And I know Ru Paul has said it. 
If you want people to take you 

784
00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:09,240
seriously, should probably wear 
a suit. 

785
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,240
I got suits. 
I just don't feel like doing it 

786
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:19,520
here. 
So I'd walk through and I, you 

787
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,880
know, I'd walk through town and 
I'd, I'd go, gosh, those are so 

788
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,240
cool. 
But the problem with a small, 

789
00:56:25,240 --> 00:56:30,360
small town like that usually to 
have storefront open is people 

790
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:35,720
either give up or they die. 
And I didn't want anybody to 

791
00:56:35,720 --> 00:56:38,640
have to give up or die for me to
find a building. 

792
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:44,680
I just was like, be really nice 
just to have one open up and I 

793
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:48,160
didn't put much more into it. 
It was a wouldn't that be nice? 

794
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,200
Now, if you want to manifest 
stuff, you want to keep it 

795
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:51,560
light. 
You don't want to be like, I 

796
00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,520
want this and this and then you 
like be meticulous in all your 

797
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:56,720
details. 
If you're, you're so controlling

798
00:56:56,720 --> 00:56:59,240
of it, you make it harder to 
come in. 

799
00:56:59,240 --> 00:57:02,360
I didn't care which building on 
that street. 

800
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:08,360
I just want a building, you 
know, can I rent it? 

801
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:10,480
I didn't even need the whole 
thing. 

802
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:17,280
I was OK with a little bit, 
which actually kind of happened.

803
00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:23,280
I got the bulk of it. 
But anyway, about 3 weeks ago my

804
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:27,560
parents went to a meeting and 
found out that it was going for 

805
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:34,440
rent and it fit into the budget 
and I gave them a call. 

806
00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:37,960
Like my mom and dad found about 
it on a Friday night and I gave 

807
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:43,000
them a call on a Monday. 
I saw it on the Monday and it's 

808
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,560
perfect. 
It's even soundproofed, guys. 

809
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:50,920
It has pegboard up on the walls.
Like are you kidding? 

810
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:58,560
It's crazy cool. 
So we'll be able to put in the 

811
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,240
sets. 
It even has another separate 

812
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:04,720
office space, you know, where I 
can film other things too, you 

813
00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,160
know, do my Tiktoks and do do 
all of that. 

814
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,520
I know I haven't been on TikTok,
but it's honestly been it's been

815
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,760
a little crazy because my mom 
hasn't been feeling well. 

816
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,400
And then, you know, it's just 
been kind of one thing after 

817
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:25,080
another and I didn't have any 
energy, you know, and I've had 

818
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:28,280
my own stuff. 
In fact, I was pretty sick 

819
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:34,920
Friday. 
I laugh now but in I was not 

820
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:39,200
well and I'm just feeling better
tonight. 

821
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:46,080
Sunday night may have answered a
question with my mom's self but 

822
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:51,920
by me getting sick. 
But I find it really funny when 

823
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,640
I go on to TikTok and people are
like we need you, we need you 

824
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,520
where are you? 
And I'm like, has anyone ever 

825
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:02,280
said, hey, are you OK? 
How are you doing? 

826
00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:11,160
And nobody needs me, you need 
yourself. 

827
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:17,520
Anyway, I think that full moon 
is going to be when I hear I 

828
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:21,200
have the lease and I signed the 
lease and we get starting 

829
00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:26,120
started on the next project. 
And I let go of the limiting 

830
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,480
thoughts I've had about growing 
this. 

831
00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:32,200
And yes, I have. 
I know you see me as super 

832
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:36,480
competent and super confident, 
but you have to remember I'm 

833
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:37,880
always thrilled when people 
listen. 

834
00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:39,440
I'm like, really? 
People want to hear what I have 

835
00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,000
to say. 
That's crazy. 

836
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:44,080
I spent a lot of years where 
nobody wanted to hear what I had

837
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:46,360
to say. 
One of the most beautiful 

838
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:50,840
healing things in this whole 
process is I didn't expect in 

839
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:56,520
this little tiny town for people
to be excited about what I do 

840
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:00,840
because when they asked about my
podcast, I was like. 

841
01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:07,040
Well, the subject matter may not
land great here. 

842
01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:09,880
You guys might not be interested
in it and that's OK. 

843
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:12,720
I will have others. 
You know, I'm not here to 

844
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,600
evangelize my beliefs on 
anybody. 

845
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,520
I just, I have a great audience 
and I have a wonderful 

846
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:21,200
membership support. 
We are 100% listener supported 

847
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:28,800
and I'm so proud of that. 
And they were like, no, what is 

848
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,000
it about? 
And I said the Awakes was 

849
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:35,560
Australian department, like what
they make space, the strategy 

850
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:40,240
podcast. 
It's almost like, you know, just

851
01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:44,720
like bringing a slider in there.
And the the young lady Roxanna, 

852
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:49,000
who is the head of the Business 
Association, said, Oh my gosh, I

853
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:54,280
do sound bath healing and tarot.
And I was like, what? 

854
01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:59,520
No way. 
And people are really open to 

855
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:03,160
it. 
And I'm like, no way, that's 

856
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:07,920
cool. 
So super excited to be welcomed 

857
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:13,280
because where I lived for 17 
years in Washington, it wasn't 

858
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,920
very accepted. 
And I wasn't very accepted. 

859
01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:18,560
And there were a lot of reasons 
for that. 

860
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:24,800
It was the only place I've ever 
lived where I wasn't welcomed. 

861
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:30,000
You know, I've lived all over 
the world and people met me with

862
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:34,680
open arms, but that spot was a 
lot. 

863
01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:36,440
There was a lot of healing that 
happened there. 

864
01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:40,200
And because of the social 
isolation, you get what you get 

865
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:41,840
from me because of what did I 
have to do? 

866
01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:47,200
I had time to study but have 
people be excited. 

867
01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:52,600
It was pretty cool. 
I'm very healing. 

868
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,040
And remember, Virgo is the sign 
of healing. 

869
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,680
We can heal wounds with this 
energy. 

870
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:02,480
We could cut out the detritus. 
We can we can put a salve on the

871
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:06,960
old scars. 
We can give ourselves some love.

872
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:09,600
And if you've been attuned to 
Reiki, give yourself Reiki. 

873
01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:11,680
OK? 
I've been attuned to Reiki since

874
01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:18,160
1999. 
And the one person we often 

875
01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:22,520
forget to give to is ourselves. 
Going to end this segment by 

876
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:44,270
reading to you. 
The Virgo rising horoscope, I 

877
01:02:44,270 --> 01:02:47,070
haven't done that in a while. 
For a while I was reading like 

878
01:02:47,070 --> 01:02:53,630
the horoscope for this, the 
sign, even though we're in 

879
01:02:53,630 --> 01:02:56,550
Pisces. 
I think Virgo risings need to 

880
01:02:56,550 --> 01:02:59,990
hear this. 
All right, fine, Pisces. 

881
01:02:59,990 --> 01:03:02,270
I'll read for you too, because 
Pisces always feel left out. 

882
01:03:02,270 --> 01:03:04,270
They're like, why are we always 
last in this? 

883
01:03:04,270 --> 01:03:06,470
In the list of signs? 
I'm like, because it's the 

884
01:03:06,470 --> 01:03:11,760
alphabet. 
So this is the Virgo rising 

885
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:14,720
horoscope. 
But I think everybody can 

886
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:17,240
resonate to a certain degree 
with this because we all have 

887
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:21,000
Virgo in our charts. 
And if you want to blow by blow 

888
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,760
on what's happening with the 
full moon through the houses, 

889
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:27,480
I'll do that for patrons in the 
Patreon this week. 

890
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:34,880
So the title is Mind Your 
Beeswax sub heading is Focus on 

891
01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:37,880
You. 
You have an eagle eye and you 

892
01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:41,000
can see exactly what people need
to be doing to get where they 

893
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:45,840
can reach their full potential. 
You are a master planner, a 

894
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:50,840
great talent scout and and an 
amazing strategist. 

895
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:54,760
Yet there's this little detail 
you often overlook. 

896
01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:58,880
You. 
You're often so invested in 

897
01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:01,920
other people's trajectories that
you lose yourself to their 

898
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:05,880
hopes, dreams and visions and 
you forget about your own. 

899
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:10,840
You get a lot out of being a 
helper, the go to person, the 

900
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:15,360
idea person. 
And yet, are you where you want 

901
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:18,760
to be? 
If yes, that's great. 

902
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:22,240
However, later this year you'll 
thank me for this little 

903
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:24,920
lecture. 
It's time you started working 

904
01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:28,560
towards your own aims. 
It's time you started to level 

905
01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:31,440
up. 
If the past several years 

906
01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:35,160
haven't hasn't driven home the 
importance of making sure the 

907
01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:39,680
brass tacks of agreements are 
fair to you, that you get your 

908
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:43,160
due out of all the effort you 
put into those nearest and 

909
01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:46,000
dearest, then I don't know what 
will. 

910
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:49,880
In March, you need to network 
with the people who are going to

911
01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:53,080
support your dreams. 
It's time to start preparing for

912
01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:55,000
something that bears fruit 
later. 

913
01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:57,640
And you'll get a taste of it in 
March. 

914
01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:02,760
And if you want to know about 
the full and new moon, that is 

915
01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:09,600
listed in the horoscopes on the 
sidebars, and that's in the 

916
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:12,200
awake space Astrology magazine. 
All right, Pisces raising, I'm 

917
01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,440
not going to leave you out 
because it is Pisces season and 

918
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:17,320
this full moon is going to be 
opposite. 

919
01:05:17,920 --> 01:05:22,360
So discretion is the better part
of valor. 

920
01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:29,160
Selfing March finds you in a 
delightfully creative space. 

921
01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:33,400
You're able to put yourself out 
there with your full authority 

922
01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:37,960
if you let yourself. 
For years I've gone on about how

923
01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:42,720
you are as much a transmitter as
you are a receiver, because it's

924
01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:45,800
true. 
And if you're going to transmit 

925
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:49,680
against the flow of the 
collective, trust me, I do know 

926
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:55,040
how hard that is. 
Because Lord have mercy do not 

927
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:59,200
people do not take their energy 
hygiene seriously and it can be 

928
01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:03,800
a lot. 
However, you can and will make a

929
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:08,480
difference if you do what you do
best and that is being your own 

930
01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:13,680
little bubble. 
Some people say it's delulu, but

931
01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:15,680
it's actually one of your 
superpowers. 

932
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,480
If you can hold your focus on 
yourself and allow yourself to 

933
01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:24,240
lean into the immense urge to 
create this month, you'll fare 

934
01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:27,760
better than if you try to run to
everyone else's rescue. 

935
01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:31,840
You are not a knight in shining 
armor when you deplete yourself,

936
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:35,040
take on too much, or martyr 
yourself for other people's 

937
01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:38,160
benefit. 
Your desire to rush in to save 

938
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:42,400
people who appear to be drowning
often leaves your own head 

939
01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:46,640
underwater too long. 
Every lifeguard knows you have 

940
01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:50,200
to think of your own safety 
first if you're going to help 

941
01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:54,000
someone else. 
You can help yourself and maybe 

942
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,520
one other person this month if 
you focus on finding your 

943
01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:02,360
groove. 
And groove you shall find if you

944
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:07,840
can switch your attention 
inward, you have an opportunity 

945
01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:11,440
to glow up. 
If you use your immense power to

946
01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:17,040
imagine for your own benefit, it
will help others in the end. 

947
01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,920
All right, that's, that's the 
Virgo Pisces axis. 

948
01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:26,360
And that's what we're looking at
since we have the nodes in Virgo

949
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:29,560
and Pisces, and that's why we're
having the eclipses in Virgo and

950
01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:35,960
Pisces. 
I hope you take me at my word on

951
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:40,800
this, guys. 
You can use this energy to power

952
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:43,760
up. 
All right, let's do some patron 

953
01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:49,320
shout outs and then we will 
listen to a conversation that 

954
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:57,120
Eli Gomez and I had about using 
your voice, using astrology, how

955
01:07:57,120 --> 01:08:11,960
to find it, what to do with it. 
I want to thank all of our 

956
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:16,960
newest patrons. 
Without patrons, there is no 

957
01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:21,520
podcast. 
Been doing some polls, been 

958
01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,000
doing some polls, and people 
have been wanting to know how to

959
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,520
deal with the energy. 
So that's what we're going to 

960
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:30,399
have coming up in patron only 
podcasts on how to deal with the

961
01:08:30,399 --> 01:08:33,840
energy. 
We've got our news patrons. 

962
01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:37,279

Oh, I love that name.

Big shout outs to our news 
patrons this week. 

981
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:16,880
Let's see so many. 
We've got some good stuff 

982
01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:20,000
happening in the comments. 
It's been a little quiet, 

983
01:10:20,440 --> 01:10:22,200
probably because I've been a 
little quiet. 

984
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:25,800
I'll come back in, I promise. 
Not feeling well has been a 

985
01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,200
thing. 
It's been wild. 

986
01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:33,760
But. 
But yeah, so big shout outs. 

987
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:41,560
Big shout outs to Maverick and 
Kim and Alicia and Eli and 

988
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:43,720
everybody in the Cosmic Surfers 
crew. 

989
01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:46,280
We're going to meet this coming 
Saturday. 

990
01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:49,960
Cosmic Surfers is a closed tier,
but these are these are my real 

991
01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:52,640
ones. 
These are these are my peeps. 

992
01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:54,840
And if I didn't mention you, 
you're still my peep. 

993
01:10:55,480 --> 01:11:03,760
All right, let's get into 
talking about what's in the 

994
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:17,760
headlines. 
All right, as promised, I have 

995
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:22,800
Eli Gomez with me. 
He is an astrologer and a mentee

996
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:26,320
of mine, rather partial to Eli. 
He does great things in the 

997
01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:28,240
world. 
He's got a podcast that's 

998
01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:31,960
rocking it. 
Eli, welcome back to the AWAKE 

999
01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:33,800
Space. 
How are you? 

1000
01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:36,120
I'm. 
Pretty good. 

1001
01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:41,760
So you've been working on a 
class you're going to be doing 

1002
01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:44,160
this month. 
Let's talk I. 

1003
01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:48,920
AM well, it's called OK. 
It's lived many incarnations 

1004
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:53,880
already and it hasn't even been 
just, but on the market for like

1005
01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:57,640
maybe a couple days, maybe maybe
a week, depending on when this 

1006
01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:00,560
comes out. 
And it's already gone through 

1007
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:04,760
three name changes. 
So originally it was called the 

1008
01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:06,800
role in collective action using 
your astrology. 

1009
01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:10,080
My assistant Brooklyn was like, 
no, that's too clunky. 

1010
01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:14,520
We are not calling it that. 
And so we decided we are going 

1011
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:20,840
to do a poll on my Patreon. 
And the name that won by an 

1012
01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:25,200
overwhelming amount was finding 
your voice using your astrology.

1013
01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:30,800
And so the theme remains the 
same, but that is currently the 

1014
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:34,560
name. 
It may change again, but I am 

1015
01:12:35,480 --> 01:12:38,400
very confident that that's 
probably going to be the one 

1016
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:40,880
that's going to stay because I 
feel like that one has the best 

1017
01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:46,240
rhythm to it. 
I love that. 

1018
01:12:47,840 --> 01:12:51,400
So when we're talking about 
collective action, we live in 

1019
01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:56,200
interesting times and we have 
Pluto in Aquarius, which gives 

1020
01:12:56,200 --> 01:13:01,160
power to the people. 
Let's talk about it. 

1021
01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:04,840
How? 
How can an astrologer assist 

1022
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:09,840
people in understanding their 
role, if any, in collective 

1023
01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:13,200
action? 
Well, yeah. 

1024
01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:18,160
So First off, nobody is a clone 
of anybody else. 

1025
01:13:18,480 --> 01:13:23,040
No one is exactly the same. 
Nobody has the exact same 

1026
01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:25,440
interest. 
No one has the exact same 

1027
01:13:25,440 --> 01:13:28,640
childhood or ways that they were
brought up. 

1028
01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:32,760
And because we are all different
and have different experiences, 

1029
01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:39,120
we all like different things. 
We all want to do different 

1030
01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:42,720
things. 
Our skills that we have are 

1031
01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:46,000
going to vary depending on the 
person, believe it or not. 

1032
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:47,920
Can you believe that no one is 
the same? 

1033
01:13:48,040 --> 01:13:50,280
Like, is that just like a wild 
thought? 

1034
01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:54,960
We're we're not monoliths. 
Right. 

1035
01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:58,360
It's it's almost like you can't.
We're just it's almost like 

1036
01:13:58,360 --> 01:14:00,760
we're not mechanical. 
We can't, we're not just like in

1037
01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:03,560
a machine out and everybody's 
saying it's not the Sneetches. 

1038
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:10,040
So what I had decided was like, 
hey, a lot of people are like, 

1039
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,840
hey, what if we were the 
Sneetches? 

1040
01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:15,920
You know, we could just, you 
know, go in systems and everyone

1041
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:17,560
has a star on their belly, you 
know? 

1042
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:20,600
Voila, easy as that, right? 
Well, because we're not all 

1043
01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:22,680
clones. 
It just doesn't work that way. 

1044
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:25,400
And that's part of collective 
action. 

1045
01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:29,680
Not everyone is going to be the 
people on the street with their 

1046
01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,560
fists in the air. 
Not everyone is like that. 

1047
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:38,280
However, there are people who 
are, and I'm not negating their 

1048
01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:40,960
importance. 
We do need people who are on the

1049
01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:44,920
streets and being out there in 
showing themselves in numbers. 

1050
01:14:45,480 --> 01:14:48,200
However, we also need people who
are security. 

1051
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:50,000
We also need people who are 
planners. 

1052
01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:53,120
We also need people who are kind
of behind the scenes working 

1053
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:58,080
with other networks of people 
trying to network and share 

1054
01:14:58,080 --> 01:15:00,600
events, share information, 
really getting the. 

1055
01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:03,920
Message out there the marketer. 
Yes. 

1056
01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:07,320
And we also need people who are 
in finance who are able to help 

1057
01:15:07,320 --> 01:15:11,760
fundraise and fund all of these 
events in order to show, hey, 

1058
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:14,240
there's this collective action 
event. 

1059
01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:19,600
There is, there are these people
who are wanting to resist 

1060
01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:21,520
whatever it is that we are 
resisting. 

1061
01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:22,840
And we want to show up in 
numbers. 

1062
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,800
And believe it or not, because 
we live in a capitalist society,

1063
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,360
we need money to do that. 
So we need people who are 

1064
01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:32,320
fundraisers and all of that 
together. 

1065
01:15:33,560 --> 01:15:37,040
We need people who fit each one 
of those things. 

1066
01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:41,240
And so there you go. 
Not everyone is just, you know, 

1067
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:46,240
a protester on the street with 
their sign and their garb and 

1068
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:50,440
everything. 
So this class is meant to help 

1069
01:15:50,480 --> 01:15:56,680
empower the students to say, 
hey, this may be where you are 

1070
01:15:56,680 --> 01:16:00,720
most aligned with in collective 
action activity. 

1071
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:06,520
Maybe you're not someone who 
likes to do finance or be behind

1072
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:08,680
the scenes. 
Maybe you are someone who likes 

1073
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:11,200
to be seen make a point and you 
are very. 

1074
01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:14,320
At. 
Your chart because your chart 

1075
01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:18,560
clearly shows that you have 
authority and you claim it and 

1076
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:23,000
so therefore you might be 
someone who will benefit more by

1077
01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:27,680
being out there. 
However, Susie over here may 

1078
01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:31,080
decide that she wants. 
Maybe I shouldn't use Susie 

1079
01:16:31,120 --> 01:16:32,640
because Susie is somebody we 
know. 

1080
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,840
Maybe I should use? 
Well, we're not talking about 

1081
01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:38,920
Susie Evolutionary. 
You can edit that out. 

1082
01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:41,040
I'm like I'm. 
Trying to think of it, but but 

1083
01:16:41,160 --> 01:16:46,120
Susie, Susie, Susie's done her 
fair share, so. 

1084
01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:48,800
Yes, I'm, I'm sure I love Susie,
She's great. 

1085
01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:54,960
No, but let's just say Bob over 
here is like, hey, you know, I'm

1086
01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:59,480
not really someone who likes to 
be out there and I'm not really,

1087
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,720
I'm what I'm really someone who 
likes to kind of just fit in and

1088
01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:06,960
be along on the side. 
Maybe Bob though has a lot of 

1089
01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:10,400
experience in accounting, so 
therefore he might be really 

1090
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:15,880
good with fundraising and kind 
of going through and all the 

1091
01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:20,560
legal mechanisms that may be 
needed for a pro testing because

1092
01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:23,520
you know, there's going to be 
law suits and all the ones that 

1093
01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:26,440
put pressure. 
So they are going to need people

1094
01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:30,720
who are doing that. 
So but that is also collective 

1095
01:17:30,720 --> 01:17:32,840
action. 
And so a lot of people look over

1096
01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,880
that. 
But this class is, it's supposed

1097
01:17:35,880 --> 01:17:40,400
to really be a way to show 
people using their astrology 

1098
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:42,960
what role they may be more 
aligned with, right? 

1099
01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:53,760
So as as an old activist, one of
the things I think is really 

1100
01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:59,080
cool about astrology that I know
you're going to show people is 

1101
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:04,320
how to work to find objectives 
to beyond the resisting, but 

1102
01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:08,280
maybe finding solutions. 
Because in this era we're in, 

1103
01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:14,800
just resisting against something
may not have the results you 

1104
01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:18,840
want to see without an 
underlying objective to a team. 

1105
01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:29,840
That's something I think 
astrology has a lot of potential

1106
01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:35,240
to show people on how to come 
into agreement on objectives. 

1107
01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:37,320
Is that something you're looking
at? 

1108
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:43,120
Oh, for sure, Because just like 
how nobody and friend. 

1109
01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:47,920
I know, right? 
Just like nobody's a clone. 

1110
01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:51,880
No resistance method is cloned 
either. 

1111
01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:57,400
And so you're going to have 
certain people who might want to

1112
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:00,480
take collective action for 
school boards. 

1113
01:19:00,640 --> 01:19:02,920
You might have people who may 
want to take collective action 

1114
01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:08,600
for environmental. 
I don't know what is it called. 

1115
01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:14,920
The the name is just completely 
leaving my brain file not found.

1116
01:19:17,760 --> 01:19:20,760
Environmental Protection. 
You know, you may have people 

1117
01:19:20,760 --> 01:19:23,880
who want to go out there and 
resist Environmental Protection.

1118
01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:26,880
Not resistant. 
OK, what is going on with my 

1119
01:19:26,920 --> 01:19:27,920
words today? 
It's just like. 

1120
01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:33,400
Not advocate for it. 
You're excited, it's OK, we'll 

1121
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:34,640
smooth out as we go. 
But. 

1122
01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:40,560
Yeah. 
So finding like your area of 

1123
01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:43,160
interest. 
Right. 

1124
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:46,680
Yeah, there's people who are 
going to want to focus on 

1125
01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:50,720
different areas and that's 
something that is also going to 

1126
01:19:50,720 --> 01:19:54,480
shape the specific objectives of
any collective action movement 

1127
01:19:54,480 --> 01:19:56,880
is the people in their 
collective interest. 

1128
01:19:58,040 --> 01:20:00,400
So that's something that I'm 
also going to be looking at as 

1129
01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:03,560
well. 
And you're very excited about 

1130
01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:08,680
this, as you should be and and 
very enthused, which makes for 

1131
01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:14,000
great teaching. 
My question, because you 

1132
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:19,840
mentioned something before we 
started recording is what do you

1133
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:23,680
have to say to people who feel 
like the only thing to look at 

1134
01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:26,840
is, is the current 
administration and the debacles 

1135
01:20:26,840 --> 01:20:31,560
that are going on there and 
feeling hopeless or feeling like

1136
01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:37,000
they don't have a voice or they 
don't have the ability to do 

1137
01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:37,680
anything. 
What? 

1138
01:20:37,680 --> 01:20:41,880
What do you say to that? 
Do you want me to give my woo 

1139
01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:46,080
woo response or my overly 
practical response or both? 

1140
01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:47,040
Both. 
Both. 

1141
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:52,600
OK, my overly practical advice 
is set the phone down, put it 

1142
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:56,440
away for a little bit. 
You know, it's, it's not 

1143
01:20:56,440 --> 01:21:01,480
necessarily a distraction, but 
it can be a lot of people look 

1144
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:06,280
to outside themselves to satisfy
certain needs that they are not 

1145
01:21:06,440 --> 01:21:10,320
giving themselves in a moment. 
And so they turn to outside 

1146
01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:16,280
events. 
Now that's like saying like, Oh,

1147
01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:21,200
well, then what do I do? 
You know, if I put the phone 

1148
01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:24,720
down, I don't know what to do 
There's I, I, there's not 

1149
01:21:24,720 --> 01:21:28,160
anything that I feel like I can 
do because I'm not constantly 

1150
01:21:28,160 --> 01:21:31,720
getting that consumption of what
it is that I've been putting my 

1151
01:21:31,720 --> 01:21:36,880
attention to. 
Well, that's kind of what is 

1152
01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:39,960
supposed to happen because it's 
turning into you. 

1153
01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:44,800
What can you do? 
And if you're if you are often 

1154
01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:48,960
though attached on your phone, 
looking at all the current news 

1155
01:21:48,960 --> 01:21:51,280
headlines, do you feel like you 
need to be completely up to 

1156
01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:53,280
date? 
How about take a walk in your 

1157
01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:58,560
community, see what can be done 
with a smaller amount of people.

1158
01:21:59,080 --> 01:22:01,920
Who because? 
In communities like in our 

1159
01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:05,040
neighborhoods, you know, my 
neighborhood only has about 50 

1160
01:22:05,040 --> 01:22:07,600
people. 
You know, if I, if we wanted to 

1161
01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:11,320
have a clean sidewalk, it really
only takes maybe two of us to 

1162
01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:12,760
really just get a shovel and do 
it. 

1163
01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:18,960
It's not really as it's not as 
overwhelming as looking at 

1164
01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:23,000
national events and be like, oh,
look at all this, like 300 

1165
01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:25,520
million people. 
And in fact, in such a million 

1166
01:22:25,520 --> 01:22:27,480
people are doing this and the 
other such and such millionaire 

1167
01:22:27,480 --> 01:22:29,320
doing this. 
That can be overwhelming because

1168
01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:32,440
humans have a very hard time 
with conceptualizing big 

1169
01:22:32,440 --> 01:22:36,800
numbers. 
And so when you look at your 

1170
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:43,960
local level, when you look at 
your even neighborhood level and

1171
01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:50,040
you try and think, what can I do
to better this community, which 

1172
01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:53,160
will then help better the 
national community? 

1173
01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:56,520
Because then it because national
is really just, you know, a 

1174
01:22:56,520 --> 01:22:58,400
whole bunch of smaller 
communities. 

1175
01:22:58,480 --> 01:23:04,720
When you really think about it, 
it will make your life so much 

1176
01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:09,920
better and so much easier 
because you will notice. 

1177
01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:15,080
And you will probably find 
interests in doing things in 

1178
01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:17,320
your local community that you 
probably wouldn't have seen if 

1179
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:22,080
you were just sitting through 
Threads or Blue Sky or Instagram

1180
01:23:22,080 --> 01:23:25,000
and looking at all like you have
to feel like you're updated with

1181
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:28,120
every little bit of information.
Because in order to be prepared.

1182
01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:31,720
Prepared for what? 
Prepared for what? 

1183
01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:37,520
Prepared for you to get for, to 
have some massive event that is 

1184
01:23:37,520 --> 01:23:40,840
going to disrupt the way that 
you've been doing things before.

1185
01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:48,400
Is it prepared for like what are
is really taking, taking a look 

1186
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:51,840
at what you are trying to be 
prepared for because that sense 

1187
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:56,680
of preparedness, there's two 
different types of preparedness.

1188
01:23:56,680 --> 01:24:00,120
There's the prepping like 
prepared as in like I'm going to

1189
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:02,640
prep. 
And then there's prepared, as in

1190
01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:07,520
I want to be where I need to be,
and how do I get there? 

1191
01:24:09,840 --> 01:24:13,360
Where you need to be is already 
something that you probably have

1192
01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:15,000
in mind. 
What you're prepping for is 

1193
01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:17,560
probably something that you are 
trying to look outside of 

1194
01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:20,000
yourself to try to. 
You're doing what other people 

1195
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:22,800
tell you what you need to do. 
I don't know about you, but I 

1196
01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:25,160
kind of like the other. 
Yeah, hearing better. 

1197
01:24:26,080 --> 01:24:29,880
Yeah, have, yeah, I agree. 
There's, there's a lot of 

1198
01:24:29,880 --> 01:24:37,320
different ways people can be 
involved and I think having an 

1199
01:24:37,320 --> 01:24:41,400
astrology class around that is, 
is great because it gets more 

1200
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:46,680
than it gives people something 
to grab onto, even if like you 

1201
01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:48,560
throw out. 
I, I, I when I teach a class 

1202
01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:52,400
like this, I'll throw out a ton 
of examples, but it's more like 

1203
01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:54,480
seeds, you know, just getting it
started. 

1204
01:24:54,480 --> 01:24:59,280
Like you may not like the 15 
words I picked, but you'll find 

1205
01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:03,320
your own word. 
I think it's good because I 

1206
01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:09,800
think there's so much media 
assault on people to force 

1207
01:25:09,800 --> 01:25:15,960
compliance and and kind of force
agreement into apathy. 

1208
01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:21,160
So I love that a young person 
such as yourself, this is like 

1209
01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:24,400
my second interview today where 
I'm like, well, back in my day, 

1210
01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:30,880
but where you're getting people 
fired up to understand that they

1211
01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:35,360
they do have a role and they can
be involved in their communities

1212
01:25:35,840 --> 01:25:37,120
because that's where the buck 
stocks. 

1213
01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:40,840
Yeah. 
And this is kind of showing you,

1214
01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:46,120
I love that, where you can also 
be involved too, because I know 

1215
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:50,240
a lot of people who want to get 
out there, who want to be a part

1216
01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:52,520
of community. 
They just don't know how because

1217
01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:56,960
they're kind of thinking, oh, 
well, on the news, I see this. 

1218
01:25:57,160 --> 01:25:59,800
Well, what you're not seeing all
the news is all the behind the 

1219
01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:01,400
scenes that's going on. 
You're not seeing the 

1220
01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:06,080
accountants, you're not seeing 
the financial, you're not seeing

1221
01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:10,040
the lawyers, You're not seeing 
well, sometimes, but you're not 

1222
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:12,800
always seeing them. 
You're mainly seeing the people.

1223
01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:16,000
On the street, but even like 
like, like, let's just say like 

1224
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:20,840
Mark Elias, you know, who has a 
really active Blue Sky account 

1225
01:26:22,240 --> 01:26:27,160
and he's a lawyer who's putting 
he, he actively advertises for 

1226
01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:31,400
writers, social media people to 
join the team that he's built. 

1227
01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:36,840
He does kind of a good job of 
messaging those things. 

1228
01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:39,840
Not everyone does a good job 
messaging the help they need, 

1229
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:44,440
but I've noticed he has, this is
back in February when we're 

1230
01:26:44,440 --> 01:26:50,720
recording, but there are a lot 
of behind the scenes like me. 

1231
01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:59,800
I, I did one protest when I was 
19 and realized that I will 

1232
01:26:59,800 --> 01:27:04,200
never like crowds. 
I, I already knew I didn't like 

1233
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:08,040
crowds, but I did it 'cause I 
was impassioned for the cause 

1234
01:27:09,280 --> 01:27:12,840
and I didn't make it to the 
final destination. 

1235
01:27:12,840 --> 01:27:19,520
I decked out like about two 
hours in because I was like, oh,

1236
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:21,800
now I didn't know anything about
astrology yet. 

1237
01:27:24,480 --> 01:27:26,120
I didn't know Scorpio rising 
this. 

1238
01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:29,480
Is. 
That what it's supposed to be, 

1239
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:36,320
Yeah, but I educated people on 
the issue ever since. 

1240
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:42,400
Yeah. 
Everybody has a role, right? 

1241
01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:44,920
Or like for me that you're doing
that because? 

1242
01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:49,080
Yeah. 
And like for me, I'm in Aries 

1243
01:27:49,080 --> 01:27:51,080
rising. 
And so you're like, oh, you're 

1244
01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:53,080
going to be someone who's going 
to be out there and you're going

1245
01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:58,320
to be doing, oh, to an extent, 
to an extent because I have that

1246
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,800
8th house sun and moon. 
So it's like, I'll do it, but 

1247
01:28:01,800 --> 01:28:05,000
I'm going to get tired real fast
and then I'm going to kind of 

1248
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:08,360
need to do my own thing. 
But then I'll come back and I'll

1249
01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:10,880
I'll do it, but I can only do it
in little fits and spurts. 

1250
01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:15,040
And it has to be on my terms 
because that that's just how I 

1251
01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:17,320
am in that's going to be 
something that we're going to be

1252
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:21,160
looking at in the class as well 
is be like, hey, you know, if 

1253
01:28:21,160 --> 01:28:23,440
you have any specific questions 
on your chart, like maybe we'll 

1254
01:28:23,440 --> 01:28:26,040
look at your rising, we might 
look at, you know, some other 

1255
01:28:26,040 --> 01:28:28,040
things too. 
Now we're really going to focus 

1256
01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:32,040
on some certain specific areas. 
So I won't be doing a lot more 

1257
01:28:32,040 --> 01:28:33,960
advanced stuff. 
It's a beginner class. 

1258
01:28:34,200 --> 01:28:38,520
So that's really it'll be it'll 
be very simple. 

1259
01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:43,920
It's easy to understand terms, 
but we'll probably look at some 

1260
01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:46,640
Big Threes and kind of go 
through and figure out. 

1261
01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:50,440
You know, I think that's really 
important to start with the 

1262
01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:54,320
like, people kind of want to run
into advanced astrology where 

1263
01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:59,400
it's very heady and very 
intellectualized, but it doesn't

1264
01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:02,120
make you a very good astrologer.
I love that you're putting 

1265
01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:05,880
practicum in and getting people 
learning on the ground level 

1266
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:12,280
where they can apply it because 
you get the meat and the tatoes.

1267
01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:16,280
Right, like see, I just showed 
like it'll be something like 

1268
01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:18,440
kind of like what I just did 
here, like, hey, I'm an Aries 

1269
01:29:18,440 --> 01:29:22,000
rising, but I'm also an 8 LB sun
and noon. 

1270
01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:25,600
And so that's going to kind of 
give a little bit more quiet 

1271
01:29:25,600 --> 01:29:28,680
overtones or more incubative 
overtone. 

1272
01:29:28,720 --> 01:29:30,240
If you see my chart, you'll know
what I mean by that. 

1273
01:29:30,440 --> 01:29:33,040
But it's going to be something 
more like that. 

1274
01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:35,480
We're not going to be going 
through, oh, your Chiron is 

1275
01:29:35,480 --> 01:29:39,520
here, Spica is here and all the 
things like, no, that's going to

1276
01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:41,760
be something that. 
Unnecessary. 

1277
01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:46,000
For for whenever I do advanced 
classes, we'll save that for 

1278
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:49,560
there, but it also is not 
necessary for this. 

1279
01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:53,920
I'm going to tell you a true 
story though, as much as I, as 

1280
01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:57,280
much as I only did one like 
March, OK. 

1281
01:29:57,360 --> 01:29:59,520
And part of it, I quit at Hyde 
Park. 

1282
01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:01,960
I was in London. 
It was already a long, it was 

1283
01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:06,800
like 2 hours already. 
I was just like, doesn't work 

1284
01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:10,120
for me. 
That 9th house sign in Mercury 

1285
01:30:10,120 --> 01:30:15,040
in Cancer. 
I held a student strike on my 

1286
01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:19,200
university campus because the 
food in the dining hall was crap

1287
01:30:19,200 --> 01:30:23,080
and it was expensive. 
And I convinced a bunch of rich 

1288
01:30:23,080 --> 01:30:29,600
kids, 'cause I, I was the one 
that wasn't at the school, I had

1289
01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:33,240
to eat in the dining hall. 
And I managed to convince very 

1290
01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:37,560
rich people to protest with me 
on this because they're like, So

1291
01:30:37,560 --> 01:30:38,800
what? 
I can eat off campus. 

1292
01:30:38,800 --> 01:30:43,760
And I was like, they're stealing
your money because they didn't 

1293
01:30:43,760 --> 01:30:46,480
care that I couldn't. 
So when I tried to do the 

1294
01:30:46,480 --> 01:30:48,080
impassioned plea, they didn't 
care. 

1295
01:30:48,080 --> 01:30:50,680
So I was like, they're stealing 
your money. 

1296
01:30:51,560 --> 01:30:53,840
Yeah. 
And you know, that's something 

1297
01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:57,000
that I've even, that's something
that I've observed on my campus 

1298
01:30:57,000 --> 01:30:59,080
too. 
Now, obviously since I go to a 

1299
01:30:59,080 --> 01:31:02,480
state school, it's not. 
I mean, yes, there are a lot of 

1300
01:31:02,480 --> 01:31:06,120
people with money, but for the 
most part it's usual. 

1301
01:31:06,120 --> 01:31:08,760
It's pretty local. 
Like we have a couple 

1302
01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:11,880
international students, that's 
where it'd be one goal for 

1303
01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:15,160
soccer and things. 
So we do get bring in a lot of 

1304
01:31:15,160 --> 01:31:17,520
people from other places for 
that reason. 

1305
01:31:17,800 --> 01:31:21,040
But for the most part it is 
local people. 

1306
01:31:21,040 --> 01:31:25,680
And so for a lot of the people 
with money, I've noticed that 

1307
01:31:25,680 --> 01:31:29,080
most of them tend to be College 
of Business students. 

1308
01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:32,160
But that's something that's kind
of everywhere. 

1309
01:31:32,160 --> 01:31:35,840
And since I am a College of 
Business student myself, even 

1310
01:31:35,840 --> 01:31:41,800
though I'm not rich, I will say 
that I still have seen a lot of 

1311
01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:45,360
people in the College of 
Business know how to work around

1312
01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:48,960
systems. 
They know how to be like, hey, 

1313
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:53,320
I, I know that first year 
students are supposed to be on 

1314
01:31:53,320 --> 01:31:54,560
campus. 
Well, guess what? 

1315
01:31:54,560 --> 01:31:57,200
The College of Business, 
according to the statistics from

1316
01:31:57,200 --> 01:32:01,000
the University of Central 
Arkansas, is the number one 

1317
01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:03,640
department of students who 
bypass that rule. 

1318
01:32:04,960 --> 01:32:08,520
And guess what? 
When you don't have to do, when 

1319
01:32:08,520 --> 01:32:12,240
you don't have to live on 
campus, you also don't have to 

1320
01:32:12,240 --> 01:32:17,000
get a meal plan. 
So you are saving probably $7000

1321
01:32:17,400 --> 01:32:21,400
just by doing that so. 
Yeah, that's why I convinced my 

1322
01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:23,320
parents to let me move off 
campus. 

1323
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:26,840
And that's what I'm doing, 
that's what I'm doing with a 

1324
01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:31,520
friend next year is we're going 
to we're going to roommate and 

1325
01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:34,520
she and I are going to find an 
off campus apartment because we 

1326
01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:36,880
realized, hey, the meal plans 
are actually much cheaper if you

1327
01:32:36,880 --> 01:32:38,800
live off campus than if you live
on campus. 

1328
01:32:40,320 --> 01:32:41,920
And so, but we still wanted to 
do a meal plan. 

1329
01:32:41,920 --> 01:32:46,760
Could all of our friends live on
campus So it would be easier but

1330
01:32:47,040 --> 01:32:49,800
for our. 
But right we learning about to 

1331
01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:54,680
navigate right? 
Yeah, but we have noticed that 

1332
01:32:54,680 --> 01:32:59,480
because the College of Business 
has students who kind of know 

1333
01:32:59,480 --> 01:33:01,640
how to work around the system, 
Why aren't all the other 

1334
01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:04,840
departments doing that too? 
Because as much as I'm a College

1335
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:07,560
of Business student, I'm also a 
College of Philosophy and 

1336
01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:08,880
Religious Studies student as 
well. 

1337
01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:15,360
And even though there's fewer of
a, every single one of them has 

1338
01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:19,960
stayed on campus and have the 
most expensive meal plan. 

1339
01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:21,840
Why is that? 
Because it's the default. 

1340
01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:25,000
So why are the College of 
Student or College of Business 

1341
01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:29,360
students learning to work around
the system while other people 

1342
01:33:30,400 --> 01:33:32,240
aren't? 
That's kind of something that 

1343
01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:36,080
I've noticed as well. 
Well, there's socioeconomic 

1344
01:33:36,120 --> 01:33:41,600
factors, there's there's 
cultural factors, there's family

1345
01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:44,880
behaviors. 
And as as the the cultural 

1346
01:33:44,880 --> 01:33:51,320
anthropologist in me wax on 
about that, but systemic skills 

1347
01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:54,760
are something really to 
cultivate as we move forward 

1348
01:33:54,760 --> 01:33:57,520
with Pluto and Aquarius. 
Because even though we're seeing

1349
01:33:57,520 --> 01:34:03,760
massive systems failure in some 
cases, but it's certainly 

1350
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:13,040
change. 
Understanding systems themselves

1351
01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:20,320
is what's going to build what's 
next, and and by studying how 

1352
01:34:20,320 --> 01:34:24,000
you can participate in 
collective action you can and 

1353
01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:27,360
learning how to pick your 
objectives, you then also look 

1354
01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:29,520
at foundational systemic 
building. 

1355
01:34:30,880 --> 01:34:35,000
Yes, because at the end of the 
day, the reason why we have 

1356
01:34:35,000 --> 01:34:37,600
societies is because we are all 
collectives. 

1357
01:34:38,080 --> 01:34:41,680
We all collectively banded 
together or well, maybe not we 

1358
01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:46,640
all, but the majority of it and 
said, hey, we want to create 

1359
01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:49,840
this neighborhood or we want to 
create this city. 

1360
01:34:50,080 --> 01:34:53,880
Now you may be thinking, I never
chose to be in the city. 

1361
01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:56,680
I may be only 12 years old and 
I'm living here because my 

1362
01:34:56,680 --> 01:35:00,080
parents did. 
Well, at some point somebody 

1363
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,320
somewhere said, hey, I want to 
be a part of this community. 

1364
01:35:03,320 --> 01:35:07,320
Or life has LED them somehow to 
be a part of the community. 

1365
01:35:07,360 --> 01:35:11,880
So that community would not be 
the same community if there 

1366
01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:15,880
weren't any people, if there 
weren't lots of people who kind 

1367
01:35:15,880 --> 01:35:19,600
of kind of just said, hey, I'm 
going to be part of this 

1368
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:24,120
specific city of New York or the
specific city of Los Angeles, 

1369
01:35:24,200 --> 01:35:30,000
but whatever that is for you. 
And that is something to keep in

1370
01:35:30,000 --> 01:35:34,800
mind because every single person
is contributing somehow, some 

1371
01:35:34,800 --> 01:35:39,880
way to their community. 
It may even. 

1372
01:35:39,880 --> 01:35:43,720
Be by, not unintentionally. 
Yeah, it may even be, hey, I 

1373
01:35:43,720 --> 01:35:46,680
don't like my community, so I'm 
going to stay inside and do 

1374
01:35:46,680 --> 01:35:47,960
nothing. 
Well, you're still contributing 

1375
01:35:47,960 --> 01:35:50,200
to your community that way too, 
because you're kind of showing 

1376
01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:53,400
your community that you don't 
really want to be a part of it. 

1377
01:35:54,400 --> 01:35:55,880
And So what do you think that's 
going to? 

1378
01:35:56,360 --> 01:35:57,880
What impact that's going to 
leave? 

1379
01:35:58,520 --> 01:36:01,440
Now, there are probably good 
reasons why some people might do

1380
01:36:01,440 --> 01:36:03,720
it just as much. 
There may be unintentional or 

1381
01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:05,480
very intentional reasons why 
people do it. 

1382
01:36:06,360 --> 01:36:09,560
But indecision is in itself a 
decision. 

1383
01:36:10,320 --> 01:36:12,720
And that's something that we're 
going to talk about in this 

1384
01:36:12,720 --> 01:36:16,560
class too, is being like, hey, 
you know, how how do we tend to 

1385
01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:19,240
make decisions? 
Do we tend to make decisions 

1386
01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:25,320
because we are just like, well, 
there's life has led me here, so

1387
01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:27,280
I guess I'll do this. 
Or are we going to take an 

1388
01:36:27,280 --> 01:36:31,520
active role in decision making 
and own our authority and make 

1389
01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:34,080
decisions from that place? 
So that's something that we'll 

1390
01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:38,840
also be talking about. 
I love that those are good 

1391
01:36:38,840 --> 01:36:45,160
skills to have regardless, you 
know, just daily life stuff, you

1392
01:36:45,160 --> 01:36:48,680
know, being an active 
participant in your own life. 

1393
01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:52,160
I always enjoy hearing from you,
Eli. 

1394
01:36:52,160 --> 01:36:53,960
So when is this class going to 
be? 

1395
01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:59,160
It will be March 22nd. 
It'll be at 1:00 PM Central 

1396
01:36:59,160 --> 01:37:01,280
time, so that's going to be 2:00
PM Eastern. 

1397
01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:04,800
And let me do the math. 
I think that's 11:00 AM eleven, 

1398
01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:10,720
the date it will be on Zoom. 
There is only 75 spots and so I 

1399
01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:17,160
am also advertising this. 
So make sure that you get your 

1400
01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:19,880
spot now before they are all 
taken up. 

1401
01:37:20,040 --> 01:37:23,120
So yeah, right. 
We'll have a link for the show 

1402
01:37:23,120 --> 01:37:25,320
notes. 
That people can check. 

1403
01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:27,480
Out and you're going to you've 
been talking about on your 

1404
01:37:27,480 --> 01:37:29,800
podcast, right? 
Oh yeah. 

1405
01:37:30,200 --> 01:37:32,280
Oh yeah, I saw I've been talking
about this on. 

1406
01:37:32,440 --> 01:37:34,000
Just about every episode for a 
little bit. 

1407
01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:36,480
And that's how I've learned that
people are actually like, oh 

1408
01:37:36,600 --> 01:37:38,480
shit, I actually want to do 
this, you know, like this is 

1409
01:37:38,480 --> 01:37:43,120
something I actually love that. 
And so I it's clearly a that's 

1410
01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:46,360
great. 
It's clearly a problem that has.

1411
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:50,280
Been a part. 
Of especially in the college 

1412
01:37:50,280 --> 01:37:52,400
student world, like, you know, 
they're like, I don't know how, 

1413
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:54,600
like I'm still learning, you 
know, I've just now got car keys

1414
01:37:54,600 --> 01:37:57,640
and a job and I am just now 
learning, you know, where my 

1415
01:37:57,640 --> 01:37:59,520
place is in society. 
And by taking this class, it 

1416
01:37:59,520 --> 01:38:01,840
might be something that helps. 
So no entrepreneurship, 

1417
01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:05,160
entrepreneurship mindset. 
Me is like, hey, you know, let's

1418
01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:06,480
let's create a solution for 
this. 

1419
01:38:06,480 --> 01:38:07,840
And so I decided to do this 
class. 

1420
01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:11,920
Absolutely, Absolutely. 
Absolutely. 

1421
01:38:13,400 --> 01:38:22,120
It's so funny because in the 
60s, long before my time, and I 

1422
01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:25,000
only say that because my kids 
when they were teen, well, not 

1423
01:38:25,000 --> 01:38:27,880
even teenagers, but what was it 
like in the 60s, mom? 

1424
01:38:27,920 --> 01:38:30,680
I'm like, I was born 2 weeks 
before Woodstock. 

1425
01:38:30,680 --> 01:38:35,480
I don't know what was it like 
being born in the 1900s, but. 

1426
01:38:37,560 --> 01:38:42,600
Great. 
It was great I got to build. 

1427
01:38:42,600 --> 01:38:44,520
My own video. 
Games. 

1428
01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:50,880
Oh wow, on a cassette tape. 
Oh wow, in 19810? 

1429
01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:52,800
Wow, I. 
Played Pong. 

1430
01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:57,000
When it first came out, I had a 
speaker that was fun. 

1431
01:38:59,400 --> 01:39:01,360
Actually it transformed my. 
World I was like 8. 

1432
01:39:01,360 --> 01:39:05,640
Years old when Pong came out, I.
Was like, the TV is finally 

1433
01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:11,320
interesting. 
I did anyway, right? 

1434
01:39:11,320 --> 01:39:13,240
Oh yeah, Because I didn't like 
watching TV. 

1435
01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:19,880
It was passive so it was boring.
But anyway, the young people 

1436
01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:22,320
that were like in my. 
Parents, age group and. 

1437
01:39:22,400 --> 01:39:25,120
Maybe just slightly older than 
them in the 60s, they didn't 

1438
01:39:25,120 --> 01:39:28,160
care about their place or 
whatever, they just took action.

1439
01:39:28,720 --> 01:39:34,200
Now granted, that's kind of how 
we ended up here, but some of it

1440
01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:39,720
was good, some of it. 
So I find it interesting with. 

1441
01:39:39,720 --> 01:39:41,720
Young people today going I 
don't. 

1442
01:39:41,720 --> 01:39:47,640
Know, you know, whereas the 
youth movement in the 60s that 

1443
01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:49,720
they didn't care, they just 
pushed forward. 

1444
01:39:53,400 --> 01:39:56,080
And I look for, I look forward 
to seeing a middle ground with 

1445
01:39:56,080 --> 01:40:02,320
that because I think. 
It doesn't all have to. 

1446
01:40:02,320 --> 01:40:05,320
Burn. 
No, you don't have. 

1447
01:40:05,400 --> 01:40:06,640
To throw the baby out when 
that's. 

1448
01:40:06,640 --> 01:40:10,440
Water No. 
And and today I will say and. 

1449
01:40:10,440 --> 01:40:12,840
I've been saying it for years, 
you need to think like the 

1450
01:40:12,840 --> 01:40:17,440
French Resistance more than the 
French Revolution because people

1451
01:40:17,440 --> 01:40:22,640
haven't adequately studied their
history because didn't really 

1452
01:40:22,640 --> 01:40:24,560
help the average. 
Person back in. 

1453
01:40:24,560 --> 01:40:30,200
The French Revolution. 
It it actually hurt the average 

1454
01:40:30,200 --> 01:40:32,440
person. 
It built the bourgeoisie. 

1455
01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:36,440
But my other favorite thing, 
History. 

1456
01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:45,480
But I love young people stepping
up to teach, to empower, to help

1457
01:40:45,480 --> 01:40:49,040
people evolve and grow. 
And I love that you're leading 

1458
01:40:49,040 --> 01:40:58,040
that charge and how exciting. 
I know it's my first class too 

1459
01:40:58,120 --> 01:40:59,960
so I'm like. 
Oh, you know, we'll we'll. 

1460
01:41:00,240 --> 01:41:02,000
We'll try this. 
You know, I've always wanted to.

1461
01:41:03,440 --> 01:41:05,520
My mom used to tell me, oh, back
when I was little, I always 

1462
01:41:05,520 --> 01:41:06,760
wanted to be a teacher or a 
preacher. 

1463
01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:08,480
And so in a way, I kind of get 
to do a little bit of. 

1464
01:41:08,480 --> 01:41:09,960
There you go. 
So yeah. 

1465
01:41:10,400 --> 01:41:12,120
Oh, that's sad. 
Just trying. 

1466
01:41:12,840 --> 01:41:14,600
But teaching and. 
Preaching. 

1467
01:41:14,600 --> 01:41:15,740
It's almost obvious. 
Mm. 

1468
01:41:15,740 --> 01:41:19,080
Hmm. 
Isn't it? 

1469
01:41:19,160 --> 01:41:21,160
It's fun I. 
Love watching it and I love. 

1470
01:41:21,160 --> 01:41:25,800
Watching you grow. 
And you should sign up for Eli's

1471
01:41:25,800 --> 01:41:29,720
class because this is a great 
opportunity to learn about 

1472
01:41:29,720 --> 01:41:33,320
yourself in other in other ways.
The more you learn about how you

1473
01:41:33,320 --> 01:41:36,720
can get out into the world, the 
more you know you have to dive 

1474
01:41:36,720 --> 01:41:40,560
deep inside to be the most 
effective you you could be in 

1475
01:41:40,560 --> 01:41:44,040
the outer world as well and grab
your power back. 

1476
01:41:44,880 --> 01:41:52,280
So yeah. 
I love it. 

1477
01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:54,120
All. 
Right, you guys can check the 

1478
01:41:54,120 --> 01:41:56,400
show notes. 
Thank you for coming on, Eli. 

1479
01:41:56,400 --> 01:41:59,400
We'll have you back on after you
teach the class, and I want to 

1480
01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:03,760
hear a review of how it went. 
Oh, yeah, of course. 

1481
01:42:03,760 --> 01:42:05,120
And it probably won't be the 
only. 

1482
01:42:05,120 --> 01:42:06,320
Time I do teach a. 
Class. 

1483
01:42:06,320 --> 01:42:08,680
It may come around again in the 
in the near future. 

1484
01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:13,200
I may put it on a cycle because 
I have gotten a lot of interest 

1485
01:42:13,200 --> 01:42:17,280
in it and I know that I can that
I can't do everyone in one 

1486
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,720
session because believe it or 
not, Zoom has a cap as to how 

1487
01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:23,160
many people can join a specific 
meeting. 

1488
01:42:23,160 --> 01:42:28,240
So I will definitely probably it
does do multiple rounds of it, 

1489
01:42:28,520 --> 01:42:29,920
but. 
For right now. 

1490
01:42:29,920 --> 01:42:32,360
Well, it's kind of fun, I'm not 
going to lie. 

1491
01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:36,080
It's fun to teach it more than 
once because every class is a 

1492
01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:38,520
little different. 
It's different groups of people,

1493
01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:41,840
so you'll like that. 
Cool. 

1494
01:42:43,800 --> 01:42:46,480
Thanks for being here. 
Yeah, thank you for having me. 

1495
01:42:57,450 --> 01:43:00,250
the headlines this week. 
Remember this? 

1496
01:43:00,250 --> 01:43:02,570
Isn't necessarily personal to 
you. 

1497
01:43:02,570 --> 01:43:06,610
These are just me giving you a 
heads up of what I think is 

1498
01:43:06,610 --> 01:43:08,850
going to be up and out in the 
world. 

1499
01:43:08,850 --> 01:43:10,930
It is going to be a pretty spicy
week. 

1500
01:43:10,930 --> 01:43:14,250
But if you actually want the 
truth, I've tone these that F 

1501
01:43:14,250 --> 01:43:18,240
down. 
So I, I think it, my language 

1502
01:43:18,240 --> 01:43:21,000
might be a little understated 
for some of the stuff we're 

1503
01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:25,640
going to see, especially over, 
you know, the 14th and 15th. 

1504
01:43:25,680 --> 01:43:30,280
So you can expect it to be 
pretty spicy. 

1505
01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:34,920
And if you're in the Washington 
DC area, do be advised that it 

1506
01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:38,960
is very possible there will be 
provocation to cause protests to

1507
01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:44,800
erupt into violence, and we 
could see excessive use of force

1508
01:43:44,800 --> 01:43:50,640
or an excuse used to put in more
authoritarian. 

1509
01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:51,640
Measures. 
It's a. 

1510
01:43:51,640 --> 01:43:54,520
Possibility. 
It's not 100%. 

1511
01:43:54,840 --> 01:43:59,200
None of these are 100%. 
None of my predictions are 100%.

1512
01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:02,840
None. 
I'm 87% accurate. 

1513
01:44:03,320 --> 01:44:06,080
I give. 
Predictions when I'm 80% 

1514
01:44:06,080 --> 01:44:08,440
certain. 
Just because I'm 80% certain 

1515
01:44:08,440 --> 01:44:09,920
doesn't mean it's going to be 
right. 

1516
01:44:09,920 --> 01:44:12,520
That's why I don't ever claim 
the timeline shifted. 

1517
01:44:13,760 --> 01:44:16,720
I mean I'm right or I'm wrong 
integrity. 

1518
01:44:16,720 --> 01:44:22,560
Matters. 
OK, so March 9th through the. 

1519
01:44:22,560 --> 01:44:24,080
12th The moon is. 
In. 

1520
01:44:24,120 --> 01:44:26,840
Leo and it's pushing. 
Boundaries and it's going to 

1521
01:44:26,840 --> 01:44:29,480
incite a little bit more than it
can handle. 

1522
01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:34,560
We can see big announcements by 
people of prominence or a brand 

1523
01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:37,280
like a luxury brand, and it 
could be both. 

1524
01:44:37,280 --> 01:44:42,760
So it could be celebrities, 
politicians, brands, board of 

1525
01:44:42,760 --> 01:44:45,360
directors. 
It's just important, it's 

1526
01:44:45,360 --> 01:44:48,880
so-called important people, 
people of note making 

1527
01:44:48,880 --> 01:44:51,200
announcements or a company 
making an announcement. 

1528
01:44:51,480 --> 01:44:56,960
We can see temperatures rise or 
fall abruptly, issues with ice 

1529
01:44:56,960 --> 01:45:00,520
melt, melting glaciers, rising 
seas and currents. 

1530
01:45:00,520 --> 01:45:03,960
We could hear about that. 
This is global tensions erupt in

1531
01:45:03,960 --> 01:45:07,040
the Straits of Taiwan and 
territorial waters of the 

1532
01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:10,880
Philippines. 
So we could hear about that Iran

1533
01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:15,200
faces a crisis or announces a 
change in domestic policy. 

1534
01:45:15,480 --> 01:45:17,000
So we can hear stuff out of 
Iran. 

1535
01:45:17,000 --> 01:45:18,760
Sometimes we have to search for 
this news. 

1536
01:45:18,760 --> 01:45:22,720
It's not always on American 
news. 

1537
01:45:23,440 --> 01:45:27,800
I look at trade magazines a lot,
or I look at like Reuters, 

1538
01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:30,880
things like that. 
We can see issues in the Levant 

1539
01:45:30,880 --> 01:45:33,920
that includes Israel, Jordan, 
Syria, Lebanon and northern 

1540
01:45:33,920 --> 01:45:37,520
Iraq. 
We can see issues with US 

1541
01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:41,040
foreign policy changing that. 
That would be a shock, right? 

1542
01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:44,880
Surprise attacks on military 
installations, Navy ships and or

1543
01:45:44,880 --> 01:45:47,960
military commands. 
Global issues with drones, 

1544
01:45:47,960 --> 01:45:51,600
missiles and incendiary devices.
Political leaders and heads of 

1545
01:45:51,600 --> 01:45:54,720
state under attack. 
Assassinations or attempts at 

1546
01:45:54,720 --> 01:45:57,080
those. 
All financial markets under 

1547
01:45:57,080 --> 01:45:59,680
strain. 
Violent rhetoric incites 

1548
01:45:59,680 --> 01:46:04,280
physical violence, either 
resistance or acting on orders. 

1549
01:46:04,280 --> 01:46:10,200
If that sounds familiar, hacking
leaks, Ransomware attacks in 

1550
01:46:10,200 --> 01:46:14,000
DNS, server attacks, computer 
systems failing, etcetera. 

1551
01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:18,240
Terrorist attack involving 
vehicles and or drones, Internet

1552
01:46:18,240 --> 01:46:20,480
disruptions, issues with 
satellites, cables and 

1553
01:46:20,480 --> 01:46:24,000
communications, issues with 
power supply, Transformers, 

1554
01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:26,560
electrical grids. 
Anything from an accident to the

1555
01:46:26,560 --> 01:46:28,520
weather could cause that. 
That's global. 

1556
01:46:29,080 --> 01:46:32,400
Could see big lightning or 
tornadoes, hail and storms that 

1557
01:46:32,400 --> 01:46:36,640
start fires in rural areas, 
issues in the tech sector, 

1558
01:46:36,640 --> 01:46:39,720
servers go down, or there's an 
event that takes a large company

1559
01:46:39,720 --> 01:46:42,200
offline. 
Leader deposed, removed from 

1560
01:46:42,200 --> 01:46:44,440
office, or voted off of a 
boards. 

1561
01:46:44,440 --> 01:46:48,880
That could be ACEO, celebrity, 
scandal, financial, or due to 

1562
01:46:48,880 --> 01:46:51,720
hedonism. 
If you don't know that word that

1563
01:46:51,720 --> 01:46:55,080
is your vocabulary word for 
today, look up hedonism. 

1564
01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:59,360
Mining accident or collapse or 
issue with minerals, mineral 

1565
01:46:59,360 --> 01:47:02,720
rights and mining. 
Solar flare or solar storm, 

1566
01:47:02,720 --> 01:47:07,320
typhoon, cyclones, wind, fire of
all kinds, Big tornado possible.

1567
01:47:07,320 --> 01:47:13,480
Again, everything is global so 
not just in the United States 

1568
01:47:13,480 --> 01:47:18,400
unless I say it's for the United
States specifically or mention a

1569
01:47:18,400 --> 01:47:21,960
country specifically. 
March 12th through the 14th. 

1570
01:47:21,960 --> 01:47:24,480
We have the moon in Virgo and it
is tense. 

1571
01:47:24,480 --> 01:47:29,160
Lots of casting blame, issues 
with services and systems of all

1572
01:47:29,160 --> 01:47:31,600
clients. 
Insurance company could make an 

1573
01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:33,960
announcement. 
Issues info about policies or 

1574
01:47:33,960 --> 01:47:37,800
closes certain branches. 
Healthcare under strain. 

1575
01:47:37,800 --> 01:47:40,680
Issues with wildlife and 
veterinary services in rural 

1576
01:47:40,680 --> 01:47:43,160
areas. 
Big rain causing large amounts 

1577
01:47:43,160 --> 01:47:46,600
of damage on the ground, Erosion
events, landslides, rock slides,

1578
01:47:46,600 --> 01:47:48,920
sinkholes, tornadoes, hail, 
snow, ice. 

1579
01:47:48,920 --> 01:47:51,400
Big waves could also be like 
avalanches. 

1580
01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:54,200
Air, water and foodborne 
diseases. 

1581
01:47:54,480 --> 01:47:58,440
The measles and shingles hit the
headlines already. 

1582
01:47:59,360 --> 01:48:01,800
Maritime accidents and blocked 
waterways. 

1583
01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:04,400
Issues with cruise a cruise ship
or cruise ships. 

1584
01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:07,320
This could be rough seas causing
problems. 

1585
01:48:07,320 --> 01:48:10,720
It could be people getting sick 
at a buffet. 

1586
01:48:11,080 --> 01:48:14,080
It could be could be a number of
things. 

1587
01:48:14,080 --> 01:48:16,000
It doesn't mean it's a complete 
tragedy. 

1588
01:48:16,480 --> 01:48:20,320
Biological and or chemical 
weapons used and or discovered 

1589
01:48:20,320 --> 01:48:22,880
or discussed. 
This could be most likely in 

1590
01:48:22,880 --> 01:48:26,280
Eastern Europe. 
Missile, drone or rocket launch 

1591
01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:28,680
goes wrong. 
Potential accidents involving 

1592
01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:32,040
faulty infrastructure, bridges, 
freeways, ports and docks. 

1593
01:48:32,400 --> 01:48:35,360
Systems grind to a halt. 
Things have trouble working and 

1594
01:48:35,360 --> 01:48:38,080
that includes anything from 
schools, states, hospitals, 

1595
01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:41,440
governments and or mechanical 
any kind of system. 

1596
01:48:41,440 --> 01:48:45,160
So of course we have the 
deadline for the US government 

1597
01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:49,680
election. 
Violence and interference in 

1598
01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:52,320
Europe and Australia is 
potential. 

1599
01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:56,920
Expect issues with supply chain,
trucking vehicles and trains. 

1600
01:48:56,920 --> 01:49:00,680
That's global deals with 
negotiations go sideways, fall 

1601
01:49:00,680 --> 01:49:03,520
apart or get delayed and that's 
international and domestic 

1602
01:49:03,520 --> 01:49:06,880
political and business 
instability in the Middle East 

1603
01:49:06,880 --> 01:49:09,720
and Eastern Europe. 
NATO and other international 

1604
01:49:09,720 --> 01:49:13,040
organizations make announcements
Offshore earthquakes over a six 

1605
01:49:13,040 --> 01:49:16,800
point O on land cause see up to 
A-65 in any seismic region, 

1606
01:49:17,560 --> 01:49:21,840
issues with the US Mexico border
and then border crossings, 

1607
01:49:21,840 --> 01:49:23,520
issues with mountains and 
summits. 

1608
01:49:23,520 --> 01:49:27,040
Now, this doesn't necessarily 
mean there's fighting. 

1609
01:49:27,040 --> 01:49:30,040
It could be immigration issues 
at all different kinds of 

1610
01:49:30,040 --> 01:49:33,440
borders, but it could be issues 
with mountain climbers. 

1611
01:49:34,560 --> 01:49:38,160
It could be, you know, flooding 
from glaciers. 

1612
01:49:38,160 --> 01:49:41,240
And I'm thinking of like in the 
Himalayas, but it could be 

1613
01:49:41,240 --> 01:49:45,320
something in the Alps as well, 
not just in the United States. 

1614
01:49:45,760 --> 01:49:47,840
Attacks on judges and civil 
servants. 

1615
01:49:47,840 --> 01:49:52,560
This could be global Immigration
and Customs matters, global 

1616
01:49:53,080 --> 01:49:57,200
rules, policies and procedures 
upheld and process in play. 

1617
01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:01,840
So people are going to try to 
use the rules. 

1618
01:50:01,880 --> 01:50:07,520
Basically assassination attempts
global and potential disruption 

1619
01:50:07,520 --> 01:50:10,040
or illness of a major world 
leader. 

1620
01:50:10,480 --> 01:50:15,320
Don't get your hopes up, but 
maybe March 14th through the 

1621
01:50:15,320 --> 01:50:18,040
17th. 
The moon in Libra demands, sword

1622
01:50:18,040 --> 01:50:21,000
in hand, that people are getting
riled up and into action. 

1623
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:22,640
Sabotage. 
Issues with public 

1624
01:50:22,640 --> 01:50:25,520
transportation on subways and 
trains that carry politicians 

1625
01:50:25,520 --> 01:50:28,560
and civil servants. 
Big wind, temperature changes, 

1626
01:50:28,560 --> 01:50:30,480
issues with air and ocean 
currents. 

1627
01:50:30,840 --> 01:50:33,760
Air traffic disruptions due to 
labor strikes and contract 

1628
01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:36,560
negotiations. 
Accidents on roads and in the 

1629
01:50:36,560 --> 01:50:39,000
air due to wind, weather and 
mechanical failures. 

1630
01:50:39,520 --> 01:50:43,040
Public protests continue. 
Issues outside of courts and 

1631
01:50:43,040 --> 01:50:45,720
public offices. 
Satellites and communications 

1632
01:50:45,720 --> 01:50:48,920
disruptions. 
Internet failures or technical 

1633
01:50:48,920 --> 01:50:51,680
issues in general. 
Terrorist attack noted. 

1634
01:50:51,680 --> 01:50:54,000
Violence in urban centers. 
It could be vehicular. 

1635
01:50:54,640 --> 01:50:56,920
International organizations have
a crisis. 

1636
01:50:56,920 --> 01:50:58,720
We could see threats of war, 
threats of nukes. 

1637
01:50:58,720 --> 01:51:00,600
Worrying words. 
It doesn't mean those things 

1638
01:51:00,600 --> 01:51:03,400
will happen but people are using
worrying words. 

1639
01:51:03,880 --> 01:51:07,840
Leaks from military rogue units,
militias have conflicts, global 

1640
01:51:07,840 --> 01:51:11,960
coups and other strange events 
politically, financial abuse or 

1641
01:51:11,960 --> 01:51:15,320
scandal revealed. 
Supreme Court or other High 

1642
01:51:15,320 --> 01:51:21,280
Court judges or international 
courts in the news is global ICC

1643
01:51:21,280 --> 01:51:23,760
or ICJ mentioned or make 
declarations. 

1644
01:51:24,000 --> 01:51:26,600
We could see a prosecutor, 
investigator or judge making 

1645
01:51:26,600 --> 01:51:29,160
bold move. 
New information leaked about 

1646
01:51:29,280 --> 01:51:32,560
U.S. officials and or financial 
matters to do with an elected 

1647
01:51:32,560 --> 01:51:35,960
official, Public violence, mass 
shooting, stabbing or issue with

1648
01:51:35,960 --> 01:51:39,160
domestic violence. 
Politicians start changing their

1649
01:51:39,160 --> 01:51:41,160
tune. 
Rhetoric changes and propaganda 

1650
01:51:41,160 --> 01:51:44,320
spins in a different direction. 
Issues to do with international 

1651
01:51:44,320 --> 01:51:46,560
agreements, treaties, 
organizations, Commonwealth, 

1652
01:51:46,560 --> 01:51:50,240
etcetera. 
That includes UN, NATO, all of 

1653
01:51:50,240 --> 01:51:52,880
that. 
Air traffic disruptions, limited

1654
01:51:52,880 --> 01:51:54,640
airspace. 
This could be global and could 

1655
01:51:54,640 --> 01:52:00,800
be for a variety of reasons. 
A global conflict escalates, and

1656
01:52:00,800 --> 01:52:05,360
that gets us up until. 
March. 17th and then the moon 

1657
01:52:05,360 --> 01:52:11,960
will pop into Scorpio on the 
17th, which is next Monday. 

1658
01:52:11,960 --> 01:52:15,000
So you'll hear more about that 
next week. 

1659
01:52:16,200 --> 01:52:20,040
It's going to be volatile guys. 
It just is this on a on a 

1660
01:52:20,040 --> 01:52:24,880
mundane level, on on the bigger 
than you level, there's there's 

1661
01:52:24,880 --> 01:52:30,040
going to be a lot that happens 
and this full moon could you 

1662
01:52:30,040 --> 01:52:32,480
know since it is a lunar eclipse
and it is visible. 

1663
01:52:32,480 --> 01:52:35,000
In North and South America. 
We could see trade deals go 

1664
01:52:35,000 --> 01:52:44,840
South, we could see issues. 
It's it's this full. 

1665
01:52:44,840 --> 01:52:48,680
Moon eclipse is also. 
Happening in the 4th House of 

1666
01:52:48,680 --> 01:52:55,960
the US Constitution. 
And it, it, it may be showing 

1667
01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:59,640
where, you know, it's, it's 
being brutalized. 

1668
01:52:59,640 --> 01:53:02,240
I think those of us who can see 
it being brutalized, but people 

1669
01:53:02,240 --> 01:53:04,000
are going to have to admit it a 
little bit more. 

1670
01:53:04,000 --> 01:53:06,040
So politicians are probably 
going to have to admit it. 

1671
01:53:06,280 --> 01:53:09,200
I don't think it blows the 
Constitution out of the water. 

1672
01:53:09,840 --> 01:53:15,160
I just don't it, it's an intense
full moon. 

1673
01:53:16,600 --> 01:53:18,840
You know, it's just an intense 
full moon. 

1674
01:53:19,600 --> 01:53:23,680
So. 
We may see some. 

1675
01:53:24,360 --> 01:53:27,600
Very. 
Interesting events happen, 

1676
01:53:27,600 --> 01:53:32,360
especially in the nation's 
capital in the United States. 

1677
01:53:32,360 --> 01:53:35,440
But that doesn't mean there 
won't be, you know, protests 

1678
01:53:35,440 --> 01:53:38,480
going on throughout Europe, 
Asia. 

1679
01:53:39,400 --> 01:53:41,440
You know, there could be 
political violence in other 

1680
01:53:41,440 --> 01:53:44,200
places. 
We are in a time of enduring 

1681
01:53:44,200 --> 01:53:49,320
change and and that means things
are going to be messy. 

1682
01:53:50,880 --> 01:53:53,080
Nobody wants to see it be messy.
I get that. 

1683
01:53:53,400 --> 01:53:58,520
But that doesn't mean it's going
to be bad for you inherently, 

1684
01:53:58,640 --> 01:54:00,960
OK? 
We have to be adaptable this 

1685
01:54:00,960 --> 01:54:02,200
year. 
We have to be able. 

1686
01:54:02,200 --> 01:54:05,120
I know many people hate the word
pivot, but that's exactly what 

1687
01:54:05,120 --> 01:54:09,680
we have to be able to do. 
OK, All righty. 

1688
01:54:12,160 --> 01:54:20,000
Up next, I'm going to end you 
with Mercury retrograde survival

1689
01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:21,800
guide. 
How to make the most out of your

1690
01:54:21,800 --> 01:54:33,960
Mercury retrograde? 
I feel a little bit like the 

1691
01:54:33,960 --> 01:54:36,240
leave Britney alone guy when it 
comes. 

1692
01:54:36,240 --> 01:54:40,080
To Mercury because everybody 
blames Mercury retrograde for 

1693
01:54:40,080 --> 01:54:44,520
absolutely freaking everything. 
But Mercury retrograde is really

1694
01:54:44,520 --> 01:54:48,000
about small annoyances. 
It the big stuff that goes 

1695
01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:51,560
wrong, the big stuff that goes 
kablooey tends to be other 

1696
01:54:51,680 --> 01:54:56,240
transits. 
OK, we just most people anyway 

1697
01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:59,680
just know enough about astrology
to be dangerous and everybody's 

1698
01:54:59,680 --> 01:55:04,040
heard about Mercury retrograde 
so poor Mercury gets the blame. 

1699
01:55:04,960 --> 01:55:07,440
I think we all need to be 
really, really happy that 

1700
01:55:07,440 --> 01:55:11,920
Mercury is going retrograde 
because it's going to impact 

1701
01:55:12,480 --> 01:55:17,040
decision makers and that is a 
saving grace. 

1702
01:55:17,040 --> 01:55:23,440
So Mercury is is going 
retrograde right now is really 

1703
01:55:23,440 --> 01:55:27,560
going to help us on the big 
picture because nothing is going

1704
01:55:27,560 --> 01:55:34,120
to work right. 
If an order is given, if a plan 

1705
01:55:34,120 --> 01:55:37,160
is being divulged or whatever 
it, it's all going to go tits 

1706
01:55:37,160 --> 01:55:40,480
up. 
OK, so, and I'm not talking 

1707
01:55:40,480 --> 01:55:43,040
about you, you know what I'm 
talking about. 

1708
01:55:43,800 --> 01:55:46,800
All right? 
So This is why I'm going to read

1709
01:55:46,800 --> 01:55:48,880
just a little bit. 
I'm not going to go like house 

1710
01:55:48,880 --> 01:55:51,720
by house like I did in the 
magazine. 

1711
01:55:51,720 --> 01:55:53,640
If you want to check that out, 
you're welcome to get the 

1712
01:55:53,640 --> 01:55:55,600
magazine. 
It's it's for sale in the 

1713
01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:57,720
Patreon. 
Or you can join the Patreon at 

1714
01:55:57,720 --> 01:56:00,440
the $15 level and grab your 
copy. 

1715
01:56:01,240 --> 01:56:03,880
So, but I'll read the 
introduction and I'll give you 

1716
01:56:03,880 --> 01:56:07,360
the salient information. 
All right. 

1717
01:56:08,880 --> 01:56:10,720
We need to be really. 
Really happy. 

1718
01:56:10,720 --> 01:56:12,520
About Mercury. 
Retrograde this month. 

1719
01:56:12,720 --> 01:56:16,640
Have you seen all the chaos? 
Have you seen the wrecking 

1720
01:56:16,640 --> 01:56:19,280
balls? 
I mean, how could we miss the 

1721
01:56:19,280 --> 01:56:21,560
Captains of Chaos in action 
right now? 

1722
01:56:21,920 --> 01:56:26,000
Which is why Mercury stationing 
retrograde in March is a really 

1723
01:56:26,000 --> 01:56:29,400
good thing. 
The fact that it's happening on 

1724
01:56:29,400 --> 01:56:34,120
the day of the full Moon and 
eclipse seems a tad extra, but 

1725
01:56:34,120 --> 01:56:38,360
it just might thwart some nasty 
and dastardly plans. 

1726
01:56:38,760 --> 01:56:43,320
Mercury may just end up being 
that meddling kid we all need to

1727
01:56:43,320 --> 01:56:46,640
help Scooby in the gang stop the
swamp monster. 

1728
01:56:47,440 --> 01:56:51,040
Current events aside, Mercury 
retrograde is hardly ever at the

1729
01:56:51,040 --> 01:56:54,600
crux of the whole problem. 
In fact, Mercury retrograde is 

1730
01:56:54,600 --> 01:56:57,640
about annoyances, irritations, 
miscommunications, and 

1731
01:56:57,640 --> 01:57:00,720
mechanical oopsies in our 
individual lives. 

1732
01:57:01,080 --> 01:57:04,000
Remember what I wrote in the 
Venus retrograde article? 

1733
01:57:05,160 --> 01:57:08,960
Retrograde isn't bad. 
Direct isn't good. 

1734
01:57:09,400 --> 01:57:12,800
There are accidents, pileups, 
mechanical issues, foibles, 

1735
01:57:12,880 --> 01:57:15,920
printer and phone issues, 
hacking and communication 

1736
01:57:15,920 --> 01:57:20,080
failures during Mercury Direct 
because of aspects to other 

1737
01:57:20,080 --> 01:57:22,920
transits. 
So it's not all poor little 

1738
01:57:22,920 --> 01:57:25,000
Mercury's fault when it's 
retrograde. 

1739
01:57:26,520 --> 01:57:29,040
Mercury retrograde in Aries is 
going to make it. 

1740
01:57:29,040 --> 01:57:32,720
Difficult for. 
Worrying words to go past words.

1741
01:57:33,200 --> 01:57:37,520
It won't mean people are, it 
won't mean people are aren't 

1742
01:57:37,520 --> 01:57:40,520
fighting mad. 
But it's kind of like in the old

1743
01:57:40,520 --> 01:57:43,320
kid shows when the cartoon would
pull out a gun. 

1744
01:57:43,320 --> 01:57:46,600
I know it's not appropriate and 
it would shoot a bouquet of 

1745
01:57:46,600 --> 01:57:49,600
flowers. 
Meaning things will not work out

1746
01:57:49,600 --> 01:57:52,040
the way they are intended in the
outer world. 

1747
01:57:52,040 --> 01:57:55,600
And yes, it may seem like we are
surrounded by clowns, I know it 

1748
01:57:55,600 --> 01:57:59,280
already does, but they will 
start tripping over their feet. 

1749
01:58:00,400 --> 01:58:04,200
That doesn't mean the chaos will
end, it's just not going to land

1750
01:58:04,200 --> 01:58:08,440
quite the way the people want it
to and things will start to 

1751
01:58:08,440 --> 01:58:12,080
misfire and backfire on a 
personal level. 

1752
01:58:12,080 --> 01:58:15,360
This means we need to be 
cautious in what we say and 

1753
01:58:15,360 --> 01:58:18,600
think twice before letting our 
internal monologue escape. 

1754
01:58:19,000 --> 01:58:22,760
Just saying it like it is might 
not land how you expect it to 

1755
01:58:23,200 --> 01:58:26,680
and will potentially come back 
to bite with a little more force

1756
01:58:26,680 --> 01:58:29,760
than preferred. 
Mercury retrograde in Aries 

1757
01:58:29,760 --> 01:58:34,000
needs means there needs to be 
more listening, less talking and

1758
01:58:34,000 --> 01:58:36,640
grandstanding, and more 
contemplation. 

1759
01:58:36,960 --> 01:58:39,400
It's a time to review, revise 
and edit. 

1760
01:58:39,560 --> 01:58:43,040
Look for the little details and 
depersonalized information 

1761
01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:46,680
coming in your direction. 
You might feel a little extra 

1762
01:58:46,680 --> 01:58:50,160
sensitive during this Mercury 
retrograde because it happens on

1763
01:58:50,160 --> 01:58:53,640
the day of the full moon, which 
also happens to be a lunar 

1764
01:58:53,640 --> 01:58:56,200
eclipse. 
So it's going to be a day that 

1765
01:58:56,200 --> 01:59:00,040
packs a punch energy wise. 
It's probably a good idea to 

1766
01:59:00,040 --> 01:59:04,080
have devices charged, batteries 
at the ready, reading material 

1767
01:59:04,080 --> 01:59:08,400
in hand and expect some weird 
weather as well as disruptions 

1768
01:59:08,400 --> 01:59:12,080
to sell an Internet service. 
There could be action out in the

1769
01:59:12,080 --> 01:59:16,160
world that has us all in our 
fields and words may not convey 

1770
01:59:16,160 --> 01:59:19,640
the depth of feeling. 
Art, photography and music might

1771
01:59:19,640 --> 01:59:23,240
help siphon the big fields. 
We can't quite find words for 

1772
01:59:24,200 --> 01:59:26,160
this. 
Mercury retrograde is a great 

1773
01:59:26,160 --> 01:59:29,720
time to inform yourself on 
meditation techniques or ways to

1774
01:59:29,720 --> 01:59:33,240
focus your thoughts. 
What most people don't realize 

1775
01:59:33,640 --> 01:59:37,760
is that meditation is not always
seeking to get to no mind or an 

1776
01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:41,960
empty mental space. 
It can be It can be thinking a 

1777
01:59:41,960 --> 01:59:46,280
mantra or a repetitive phrase 
over and over again, or setting 

1778
01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:50,480
a timer for 5 minutes at a time 
to get a task done that is 

1779
01:59:50,480 --> 01:59:53,320
repetitive, like the dishes, 
floors, folding laundry, 

1780
01:59:53,320 --> 01:59:55,320
gardening, etcetera. 
Spreadsheets. 

1781
01:59:57,320 --> 01:59:59,320
It's also a great time to 
reframe. 

1782
01:59:59,320 --> 02:00:02,640
Really strong ideas. 
About what we're personally able

1783
02:00:02,640 --> 02:00:07,120
to do and how we can do it. 
Now isn't the time to perfect 

1784
02:00:07,120 --> 02:00:13,720
techniques so much as reorganize
capabilities if you think of 

1785
02:00:13,720 --> 02:00:15,600
Mercury. 
Retrograde or any other kind of 

1786
02:00:15,600 --> 02:00:19,040
retrograde as a form. 
Of time travel that that can 

1787
02:00:19,040 --> 02:00:22,440
help you navigate the wibbly 
wobbliness of the retrograde 

1788
02:00:22,440 --> 02:00:26,120
cycle. 
So remember we have this is the 

1789
02:00:26,120 --> 02:00:28,760
cycle and it's written out in 
the magazine, but we have the 

1790
02:00:28,760 --> 02:00:32,000
pre retrograde phase and it 
happens about two weeks before 

1791
02:00:32,000 --> 02:00:36,000
Mercury stations. 
The station is when the day 

1792
02:00:36,000 --> 02:00:39,760
before retrograde motion begins 
and it looks like the planet is 

1793
02:00:39,760 --> 02:00:43,000
stationary in the sky. 
Then we have the retrograde 

1794
02:00:43,000 --> 02:00:46,160
motion where it appears that 
Mercury is moving backwards in 

1795
02:00:46,160 --> 02:00:47,640
the sky. 
It's an illusion, but it's an 

1796
02:00:47,640 --> 02:00:50,880
illusion we live with. 
And then it stations again 

1797
02:00:52,160 --> 02:00:55,000
before it moves direct and again
it looks like it's stationary. 

1798
02:00:55,000 --> 02:00:57,400
In the sky like it's. 
Standing still and then it moves

1799
02:00:57,400 --> 02:01:00,600
through the shadow phase. 
There's no pre shadow phase. 

1800
02:01:00,600 --> 02:01:04,480
There's a pre retrograde phase. 
The shadow phase has nothing to 

1801
02:01:04,480 --> 02:01:07,080
do with shadow work. 
It's all about the two week 

1802
02:01:07,080 --> 02:01:10,560
period where Mercury moves back 
over the ground. 

1803
02:01:10,560 --> 02:01:14,760
It was retrograde in. 
OK, so those are the facts. 

1804
02:01:14,760 --> 02:01:17,120
That's what I wrote in the 
magazine. 

1805
02:01:17,120 --> 02:01:21,960
There's, there's a breakdown on 
how Mercury retrograde will 

1806
02:01:21,960 --> 02:01:24,920
impact you on a personal level 
and what you need to focus on. 

1807
02:01:25,320 --> 02:01:28,840
But what I can say the biggest 
thing is to like, watch your 

1808
02:01:28,840 --> 02:01:31,320
clap backs. 
Don't get into it with people. 

1809
02:01:31,720 --> 02:01:35,400
It's a time to reassess things. 
Think about how you think about 

1810
02:01:35,400 --> 02:01:37,720
yourself. 
You know, this is pairing nicely

1811
02:01:37,720 --> 02:01:41,080
with that full moon in Virgo. 
We can be really cruel to 

1812
02:01:41,080 --> 02:01:43,000
ourselves. 
We can be really mean to 

1813
02:01:43,000 --> 02:01:45,320
ourselves. 
And it's, it's not something to 

1814
02:01:45,320 --> 02:01:48,400
have a badge of honor about. 
You know, you see so many people

1815
02:01:48,400 --> 02:01:50,520
like I'm so mean to myself. 
And then people are like, oh 

1816
02:01:50,520 --> 02:01:52,760
man, I'm me too. 
And then you get a little 

1817
02:01:52,760 --> 02:01:57,880
sympathy club going, but it 
doesn't move you forward, OK? 

1818
02:01:58,560 --> 02:02:00,960
It doesn't move you forward. 
What moves you? 

1819
02:02:00,960 --> 02:02:03,240
Forward is saying, oh wow, that 
was really mean. 

1820
02:02:03,680 --> 02:02:05,680
How would I feel if I heard 
somebody else talking to 

1821
02:02:05,680 --> 02:02:09,200
somebody I cared about? 
That way, you know, and it 

1822
02:02:09,200 --> 02:02:11,040
doesn't mean you then beat 
yourself up because. 

1823
02:02:11,040 --> 02:02:12,760
You bullying? 
Yourself. 

1824
02:02:12,760 --> 02:02:15,120
And it'd be like, well, how 
could I say that different? 

1825
02:02:15,640 --> 02:02:17,440
How could I reframe that for 
myself? 

1826
02:02:18,320 --> 02:02:23,720
OK, that that's an important 
skill and it is going to be kind

1827
02:02:23,720 --> 02:02:26,080
of wild out there, but stuff. 
Is going to backfire. 

1828
02:02:26,320 --> 02:02:30,600
And so it may be almost like a 
comedy of errors in a really 

1829
02:02:30,600 --> 02:02:38,520
surreal and strange way. 
So there's that coming up, going

1830
02:02:38,520 --> 02:02:42,160
back to the Venus retrograde. 
I know, I know, I know. 

1831
02:02:42,200 --> 02:02:45,360
A lot of people are like blaming
it for the blow UPS in 

1832
02:02:45,360 --> 02:02:47,400
friendships, relationships, 
etcetera. 

1833
02:02:49,600 --> 02:02:53,520
Guys. 
Venus isn't causing that. 

1834
02:02:53,520 --> 02:02:58,200
And it's not screwing with you. 
It's forcing you to look at 

1835
02:02:58,200 --> 02:03:02,480
where you've grown, where things
are not mutual, where things are

1836
02:03:02,480 --> 02:03:06,080
not in balance. 
And it's making you look at what

1837
02:03:06,080 --> 02:03:08,320
you really, really need to 
thrive. 

1838
02:03:09,040 --> 02:03:13,520
Venus is about how we attract 
that which we need to feel 

1839
02:03:13,520 --> 02:03:16,520
secure. 
And if you have friendships that

1840
02:03:16,520 --> 02:03:20,560
are not balanced or equal, if 
you have people in your life who

1841
02:03:20,640 --> 02:03:25,880
are not necessarily as 
supportive as you need support 

1842
02:03:25,880 --> 02:03:29,720
to be, or or maybe their version
of support isn't your idea of 

1843
02:03:29,720 --> 02:03:34,120
support. 
I'll never forget years ago when

1844
02:03:34,120 --> 02:03:39,080
I was in my second marriage, I 
was asking for some support on a

1845
02:03:39,080 --> 02:03:44,920
project and and someone was 
foolish enough to say. 

1846
02:03:45,600 --> 02:03:47,800
Well, I do support. 
You I don't tell you no. 

1847
02:03:50,480 --> 02:03:53,160
Imagine how that. 
Went after that. 

1848
02:03:54,240 --> 02:03:59,080
Did did I lose lose my temper? 
Yes, I did, because not saying 

1849
02:03:59,080 --> 02:04:01,320
no was not support. 
First of all, you're not the 

1850
02:04:01,320 --> 02:04:03,600
boss of me. 
Even if people are married, 

1851
02:04:03,720 --> 02:04:06,160
spouses are not in charge of 
each other. 

1852
02:04:07,040 --> 02:04:09,040
There's no ownership papers 
there. 

1853
02:04:10,520 --> 02:04:14,760
And I was like trying to convey 
and speak the support I need. 

1854
02:04:15,760 --> 02:04:20,360
And, and I was flat out told, 
well, I don't find what you do 

1855
02:04:20,360 --> 02:04:23,040
interesting. 
You know, I'm like, but I 

1856
02:04:23,040 --> 02:04:26,120
support you in your career. 
I support you in these things. 

1857
02:04:26,120 --> 02:04:28,920
And he's like, yeah, but your 
stuff isn't interesting. 

1858
02:04:29,000 --> 02:04:32,640
Mine is. 
And it was just like, no, 

1859
02:04:32,640 --> 02:04:37,320
actually it's not. 
And that was one of the many 

1860
02:04:37,320 --> 02:04:45,280
nails in that, the coffin of 
that marriage that very well 

1861
02:04:45,280 --> 02:04:47,600
could have been. 
A Venus retrograde time period. 

1862
02:04:47,640 --> 02:04:50,400
I'd, I'd have to go look, I'd 
have to remember the year. 

1863
02:04:52,600 --> 02:04:56,080
Now, that's kind of an extreme 
example, but yeah, there was a 

1864
02:04:56,080 --> 02:04:58,400
lot of things that got this lady
to where she's at. 

1865
02:04:59,560 --> 02:05:03,760
Understanding what support means
to you, understanding what 

1866
02:05:03,760 --> 02:05:06,280
resources you need. 
I know a lot of times we look at

1867
02:05:06,280 --> 02:05:09,320
the salary and being able to pay
our rent, which, duh, that's 

1868
02:05:09,320 --> 02:05:14,520
important. 
Being able to eat is nice, but I

1869
02:05:14,520 --> 02:05:17,840
was advising a young person. 
Over the weekend. 

1870
02:05:19,440 --> 02:05:21,480
As they were looking at 
manifesting things and I was 

1871
02:05:21,480 --> 02:05:26,080
like, I want you to step back 
from the details and I wanted 

1872
02:05:26,160 --> 02:05:27,720
you to think about how do you 
want to feel? 

1873
02:05:28,000 --> 02:05:31,360
What does freedom feel like? 
What's it like to be on a road 

1874
02:05:31,360 --> 02:05:33,080
trip? 
You know, like at the start of 

1875
02:05:33,080 --> 02:05:35,280
the road trip when you have the 
good snacks, right? 

1876
02:05:35,280 --> 02:05:38,520
You've got the radio cranked up 
or your favorite songs are 

1877
02:05:38,520 --> 02:05:40,480
playing on your favorite 
playlist for Rd. trips. 

1878
02:05:40,480 --> 02:05:42,680
So yeah, what's the music? 
What's it like? 

1879
02:05:42,680 --> 02:05:45,280
Do you have your windows down? 
You know, are you blasting? 

1880
02:05:45,280 --> 02:05:47,600
What are you doing? 
You know, once you get on that 

1881
02:05:47,840 --> 02:05:51,640
open stretch of road or you're 
on the S curves, how does it 

1882
02:05:51,640 --> 02:05:52,960
feel? 
Right. 

1883
02:05:53,440 --> 02:05:55,200
Don't think about where you're 
going. 

1884
02:05:55,200 --> 02:05:56,800
Don't think about what you're 
wearing. 

1885
02:05:56,800 --> 02:05:58,480
Don't think about What Car 
you're driving. 

1886
02:05:58,840 --> 02:06:01,320
What does it feel like to be in 
that moment? 

1887
02:06:02,120 --> 02:06:04,880
What does it feel like to be 
able to go to the grocery store 

1888
02:06:04,880 --> 02:06:07,600
and and buy eggs without any 
guilt? 

1889
02:06:07,600 --> 02:06:12,600
You know, what's it like to, you
know, grab your kids a toy and 

1890
02:06:12,920 --> 02:06:14,480
not have to think about your 
budget? 

1891
02:06:14,880 --> 02:06:18,960
What's it like to be able to 
take time off if you're sick and

1892
02:06:18,960 --> 02:06:22,240
not have to worry about it? 
What's it like? 

1893
02:06:22,320 --> 02:06:25,400
You know, if you want to travel,
don't just think about like the 

1894
02:06:25,400 --> 02:06:28,280
one place you want to go 'cause 
you might have it idealized, 

1895
02:06:28,280 --> 02:06:32,040
right? 
And what's in your head might be

1896
02:06:32,040 --> 02:06:34,320
different from the reality. 
But what is it that you're 

1897
02:06:34,320 --> 02:06:37,120
wanting from that experience? 
What do you do you want that 

1898
02:06:37,120 --> 02:06:41,200
sense of caught being, you know,
a little cosmopolitan, a little 

1899
02:06:41,200 --> 02:06:45,360
sexy, a little freer, a little 
bohemian? 

1900
02:06:45,360 --> 02:06:50,160
Or are you feeling like all 
business and capable and strong 

1901
02:06:53,000 --> 02:06:56,200
if you're afraid? 
Of things, Why are you afraid of

1902
02:06:56,200 --> 02:06:58,840
them? 
If you're afraid to do things on

1903
02:06:58,840 --> 02:07:05,400
your own, if you're afraid to 
take a risk, why, Why, and what 

1904
02:07:05,440 --> 02:07:07,240
you know even even. 
If something happened in the 

1905
02:07:07,240 --> 02:07:09,960
past. 
Why? 

1906
02:07:10,600 --> 02:07:15,440
What's stopping you when you 
look at all the reason why? 

1907
02:07:15,440 --> 02:07:17,920
You can't. 
You're blocking the roads. 

1908
02:07:17,920 --> 02:07:23,240
To why you can when you're 
looking. 

1909
02:07:23,240 --> 02:07:26,200
At all the reasons why you can't
you're. 

1910
02:07:26,200 --> 02:07:30,600
Blocking the roads and the 
pathways for why you can. 

1911
02:07:31,120 --> 02:07:33,520
And I know this world looks like
a great old shit show. 

1912
02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:35,920
I know there's so much going on 
right now. 

1913
02:07:36,280 --> 02:07:40,640
I know that it's hard. 
And I know a lot of you. 

1914
02:07:40,840 --> 02:07:44,720
I know a lot of you got hit 
economically recently. 

1915
02:07:45,920 --> 02:07:51,880
I get it. 
I get it again I built from 

1916
02:07:51,880 --> 02:07:58,120
nothing, nothing I understand 
I've lived my Pluto transit 

1917
02:07:58,120 --> 02:08:01,880
through the 2nd house thanks and
it was over 20 years. 

1918
02:08:03,800 --> 02:08:09,440
That was fun not but it taught 
me to reassess. 

1919
02:08:11,200 --> 02:08:15,480
I was never money driven in the 
1st place, still I'm not, but I 

1920
02:08:15,480 --> 02:08:17,680
also learned that I couldn't 
disenfranchise. 

1921
02:08:17,680 --> 02:08:22,960
Myself and thrive. 
Either and experience driven. 

1922
02:08:23,080 --> 02:08:29,360
Knowing what drives. 
You is important and we talk 

1923
02:08:29,360 --> 02:08:30,920
about. 
That in the healing the money. 

1924
02:08:30,920 --> 02:08:34,880
Wound class and I'm going to be 
putting up a little podcast with

1925
02:08:34,920 --> 02:08:39,520
with some little extra Benny's 
for the mystery school people 

1926
02:08:39,520 --> 02:08:42,480
that come out of that class this
week. 

1927
02:08:43,960 --> 02:08:47,440
OK, so if you're in the. 
Mystery school tier. 

1928
02:08:47,720 --> 02:08:53,360
Keep your eye out for a special.
Presentation where I kind of 

1929
02:08:53,360 --> 02:09:01,240
breakdown how to consider what 
really matters to you because 

1930
02:09:01,240 --> 02:09:05,160
going forward, that's your 
route, that's your grounding, 

1931
02:09:05,160 --> 02:09:07,640
knowing what really matters to 
you. 

1932
02:09:07,640 --> 02:09:10,680
And you may think you already 
know, but if you haven't 

1933
02:09:10,680 --> 02:09:15,880
deconstructed, if you haven't 
examined this, if you haven't 

1934
02:09:15,880 --> 02:09:19,280
done it from a physical 
understanding, if it's just 

1935
02:09:19,280 --> 02:09:22,680
mental, you're probably still in
your social cultural 

1936
02:09:22,680 --> 02:09:30,800
programming. 
Understanding what enlivens you 

1937
02:09:30,800 --> 02:09:36,440
and. 
What doesn't is at the root of 

1938
02:09:36,440 --> 02:09:40,920
self actualization. 
Understanding that and you can 

1939
02:09:40,920 --> 02:09:46,560
start start to make other things
happen and it doesn't have to 

1940
02:09:46,560 --> 02:09:51,960
take 20 years, it can be a 
pretty accelerated. 

1941
02:09:51,960 --> 02:09:55,040
Process to what? 
I had to go through to develop 

1942
02:09:55,040 --> 02:10:00,320
these processes the practical 
application from the theories, 

1943
02:10:01,680 --> 02:10:04,040
because theories are nothing, 
theories are. 

1944
02:10:04,040 --> 02:10:07,960
Ideas until they're proven. 
Correct or wrong, but even then 

1945
02:10:08,080 --> 02:10:10,800
just because it's an idea is 
nothing until it's put into 

1946
02:10:10,800 --> 02:10:13,000
action. 
You can think of an invention, 

1947
02:10:13,000 --> 02:10:15,280
but if you never make it, it's 
never done anything. 

1948
02:10:15,280 --> 02:10:18,680
So it's just an idea. 
Ideas are a dime a dozen. 

1949
02:10:18,680 --> 02:10:21,720
There's no such thing as a 
million idea $1,000,000 idea 

1950
02:10:21,720 --> 02:10:24,920
until it's put into action. 
And and healing the money wound 

1951
02:10:24,920 --> 02:10:27,840
isn't necessarily about money 
itself. 

1952
02:10:28,040 --> 02:10:32,680
It's about self worth and value.
Understanding your deservedness 

1953
02:10:32,720 --> 02:10:37,800
and understanding what kind of 
resources motivate you. 

1954
02:10:41,800 --> 02:10:45,600
But we call it money because 
money kind of gets those. 

1955
02:10:45,600 --> 02:10:52,400
Things in this world, and even 
if capitalism as we see it, goes

1956
02:10:52,400 --> 02:10:53,960
away tomorrow. 
Money. 

1957
02:10:53,960 --> 02:10:58,000
Will still be here, we'll still 
have currency until maybe Pluto 

1958
02:10:58,000 --> 02:11:02,440
in Taurus and there was a big 
monetary change when Pluto. 

1959
02:11:02,440 --> 02:11:07,080
Came in to Taurus. 
In the 1800s, it's when the US 

1960
02:11:07,080 --> 02:11:13,760
started printing paper money and
moved away from using metals so 

1961
02:11:14,080 --> 02:11:15,120
that. 
Innovative money? 

1962
02:11:15,120 --> 02:11:16,840
Well, we'll see another 
financial. 

1963
02:11:16,840 --> 02:11:19,520
Innovation. 
When Pluto enters Taurus, I 

1964
02:11:19,520 --> 02:11:22,000
won't be here to see it, and 
probably most of you won't 

1965
02:11:22,040 --> 02:11:25,000
either because it happens in 
like, what if Pluto enters 

1966
02:11:25,000 --> 02:11:29,280
Taurus in 2135? 
And it'll probably be more than 

1967
02:11:29,280 --> 02:11:31,560
0° before those things come into
play. 

1968
02:11:31,560 --> 02:11:37,560
So we kind of have to make peace
with it, understanding that even

1969
02:11:37,560 --> 02:11:40,520
billionaires have a money wound 
because they don't know how to 

1970
02:11:40,520 --> 02:11:44,360
feel satisfied. 
They don't have an enough button

1971
02:11:47,200 --> 02:11:52,480
and that leads to gluttony. 
And that's. 

1972
02:11:52,480 --> 02:11:59,360
As harmful as as having a. 
Mindset that that repels us from

1973
02:11:59,360 --> 02:12:04,160
receiving. 
There's a happy middle ground, 

1974
02:12:05,680 --> 02:12:07,760
OK, there's a happy middle 
ground. 

1975
02:12:08,640 --> 02:12:11,640
And this Mercury retrograde, 
this Venus retrograde, this 

1976
02:12:11,640 --> 02:12:16,920
eclipse is telling us to prune 
the stuff. 

1977
02:12:17,160 --> 02:12:19,520
Prune it. 
That isn't serving us. 

1978
02:12:19,520 --> 02:12:24,160
You do that about you change 
your world my. 

1979
02:12:24,160 --> 02:12:25,720
Friends, you don't need to 
change the. 

1980
02:12:25,720 --> 02:12:29,680
World, you need to change your 
world, how you live in your 

1981
02:12:29,680 --> 02:12:33,360
world, in your physical body, in
your mental body, in your 

1982
02:12:33,360 --> 02:12:36,040
emotional body. 
You do that and changes happen 

1983
02:12:36,040 --> 02:12:38,720
around you. 
That's how you impact change. 

1984
02:12:38,720 --> 02:12:45,120
The biggest OK, because as 
individuals, there are things 

1985
02:12:45,120 --> 02:12:50,000
bigger than ourselves. 
We can't stop a volcano, but we 

1986
02:12:50,000 --> 02:12:53,880
can pay attention if we live 
near 1 and decide how we're 

1987
02:12:53,880 --> 02:12:58,440
going to live around that and 
what we're going to do about it.

1988
02:12:58,560 --> 02:13:01,080
Like, do we? 
Do we move further away? 

1989
02:13:01,320 --> 02:13:05,800
Things like that. 
OK, All righty. 

1990
02:13:07,000 --> 02:13:11,240
I hope you leave this episode 
understanding you are far more 

1991
02:13:11,240 --> 02:13:14,680
valuable and capable than you 
think, and that you do not need 

1992
02:13:14,680 --> 02:13:17,640
to feel doomed by anything 
happening this week. 

1993
02:13:18,280 --> 02:13:21,360
You have a lot more power than 
you know, and that's why people 

1994
02:13:21,360 --> 02:13:24,360
use tools of oppression to make 
you think differently. 

1995
02:13:24,840 --> 02:13:27,480
I'm Lori Rivers, and I look 
forward to talking to you next 

1996
02:13:27,480 --> 02:13:34,000
week when we're going to be 
examining some more of March 

1997
02:13:34,000 --> 02:13:37,160
astrology happenings. 
See you next week.
