1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,600 It's the Awake Space Astrology podcast. 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,520 I'm Lori Rivers, your host here to help you with some 3 00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:09,880 inspiration to get those aspirations out into the world. 4 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:17,400 Well guys, it's here March 2025. I've been looking at March 2025 5 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:25,320 for a really long time and I broke down the astrology back in 6 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:31,920 May of 2024 for the 2025 year ahead that I gave in June. 7 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:39,720 Because every single year I give a year ahead for the next year 8 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,040 around the solstice, the summer solstice, and then I do a follow 9 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:51,160 up in the fall. And March is not the most 10 00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:56,720 intense month of 2025, but it'll sure feel like it as we go 11 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:02,360 through it. There is a breather this year, 12 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,959 but it's not for a few months yet. 13 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:14,160 So I know it's easy to get lost in despair and worry and fear 14 00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:18,600 and doubt. And that is human. 15 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,880 There is no blame to have any emotion. 16 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,560 Make no mistake, when I'm telling you to hold on to hope, 17 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,840 it is never with a judgement against worry, fear, doubt, 18 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,400 insecurity. The world is a pretty messy 19 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,080 place right now and it would be regardless. 20 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,760 You have to remember I was looking out at 2025 back in the 21 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,840 90s, knowing it was going to be a poop show. 22 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,920 And I even just like didn't want to look at it for a really long 23 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,800 time. So I didn't study it in depth 24 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,600 until we got closer into it because it was very intense and 25 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:03,600 very out of context. So there were multiple paths 26 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,800 available. None of them were super fun, OK. 27 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,160 And they all had a few things in common. 28 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,600 And that is massive systemic change, which we've been going 29 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,120 through. We've been going through massive 30 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,400 systemic change for about 30 years. 31 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:31,400 It's intensified in the last 17. OK, so now don't go away because 32 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,240 I'm going to give you some solutions. 33 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:39,760 I did a poll in the Patreon for supporting members and I asked 34 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,960 what they wanted more of and whether they were there, and 35 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:50,160 people overwhelmingly voted with how to deal with the energy. 36 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,800 And so that's really what the Awake Space Astrology podcast is 37 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,200 all about. And of course, I dial in deeper 38 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,400 in patron only podcasts and in the community and through live 39 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,440 streams. But never think you're getting 40 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:08,120 shortchanged here and you can always think a patron in the 41 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,760 Spotify comments because without the patrons, there is no podcast 42 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,880 or anything else. A lot of people have been asking 43 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:21,560 where I've been on TikTok. Well, astrologers are not immune 44 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,080 to transits. I say that all the time and with 45 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,840 great frequency. And I have had my own transits. 46 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:35,520 So not only was I also walking through concrete in February, my 47 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,040 mother's been not feeling well. And so we've been trying to get 48 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,680 to the bottom of that. And of course, when it rains, of 49 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,360 course, and there's been other family things to deal with. 50 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,200 And as a Cancerian, I'm always going to choose my family. 51 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,600 So been dealing with those things. 52 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,480 And some days it's been as much as I can do to get the podcast 53 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,960 up and, and to be available to patrons. 54 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,000 So I'll be back on TikTok. You're probably going to see a 55 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,520 lot more clips from the podcast. I've got some wonderful help 56 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,240 editing so that I'm not doing all it all on my lonesome. 57 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,200 So that's exciting. In this episode, we're going to 58 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,920 go through the Astrology of March. 59 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:20,640 I have a very special guest, Kimberly Bellew, who has the 60 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,280 MCE, and you're going to hear more about that. 61 00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:29,600 It is a metaphysical collective exchange that you can check out. 62 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,600 She has a Patreon and an Etsy shop, and she sent me some gifts 63 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,400 and I did an unboxing. So you could check the video out 64 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,920 on Spotify if you're listening to this on YouTube or anywhere 65 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,520 else. So Patrons, Patrons gets some of 66 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,840 this podcast done in segments so they'll get like just so they 67 00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:53,760 can refer to the headlines or whatever. 68 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,560 I'm, I'm changing up some stuff in the Patreon. 69 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,320 I put out the weekly schedule. Monthly schedules don't work for 70 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:06,480 me because, well, they just don't work for me. 71 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,480 I have a 9th house sun and a 9th house Mercury and a Sagittarius 72 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:18,000 Mars. And well, outlines help and 73 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,000 routines to some degree. Thank you. 74 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,040 Saturn in my 6th house. However, I'm going to do some 75 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,440 patron only pods at the different tiers. 76 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:35,280 OK, so we've got the patron spotlight and wonderful patron. 77 00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:37,400 Rachel is in our spotlight this week. 78 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,960 She is a PhD research chemist, really amazing. 79 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,880 Also a high school chemistry teacher. 80 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,880 And we have a wonderful rousing talk. 81 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,960 And that'll be for all patrons this week. 82 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,200 You can check out Rachel. Let me let me grab that 83 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,160 schedule. I can tell you what's going on 84 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,520 in the Patreon. I'm not going to lie, some of 85 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:05,040 you in the comments made me cry. So the podcast comes out today, 86 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,200 March 3rd podcast release and we're going to do a member poll 87 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:16,520 in relationship to the podcast. So we'll see who listened The 88 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,880 4th of March. We have a patron only live and 89 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,600 that is all patrons in the chat, the paying patrons. 90 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:31,960 So if I say sorry it's a patron only live, all patrons is free 91 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,160 as well as paid. So patron only live and a 92 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,120 magazine release on the 4th. It might be the 5th before I get 93 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,000 the magazine out. I had a family emergency tonight 94 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,960 that I had to take care of. And so I'm still writing 95 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,960 articles. I'll talk about the magazine a 96 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,200 little bit later in the podcast. And then we've got the Patron 97 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,480 Spotlight coming out on the 5th and I might switch those around 98 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,240 so you're not missing any content. 99 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,440 And then I've got a couple different patron only podcasts 100 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:06,960 coming out on the 6th, so they'll be one for the $15 and 101 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,280 up tier. I'm going to do a very special 102 00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:15,760 one for the mystery school and and up as well. 103 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,080 So those are going to get switched UPS. 104 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,520 I think every every week I'll do some of the higher tiers 'cause 105 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,000 I like to give them some love and they've been very patient 106 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,400 with me. Game Night Live stream on 107 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,480 Fridays. We we are putting our attention 108 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:38,040 onto some conscious dissociation and role-playing and there's 109 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,040 plenty of astrology talk. Super fun. 110 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:45,040 And I fixed the Zoom webinar chat so that the panelists can 111 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,920 chat as well. So 'cause it's been killing us 112 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,960 and I finally figured out how to do that. 113 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:55,880 It wasn't obvious. We got the patron slumber party 114 00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,840 on the 8th and then Sunday Link update is in the chat. 115 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:06,560 So if you're a supporting patron in the Awake Space lounge, which 116 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,600 is where we try to keep things a little more lighthearted, a 117 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,720 little community centered, it's where you can just go to 118 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,320 celebrate. We try to keep the venting 119 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,200 chamber for the primordial screens and the in the 120 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,400 headlines, Laurie predictions. You know, that's where under 121 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,600 specific news articles we can have discussion. 122 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,880 We've got a creativity channel, etcetera. 123 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:34,799 But once a week doing a slumber party, That's right, once a week 124 00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:39,039 doing a slumber potty. And then of course, the podcast 125 00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:43,360 will come out. So super fun, super fine. 126 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,640 I'm not going to lie, I'm feeling pretty proud of myself 127 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,240 for getting all that recording done. 128 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,320 So have your favorite beverage. Take a few deep breaths. 129 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,800 If you didn't get a chance to listen to the Pisces New Moon 130 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,800 meditation, I urge patrons to go check that out. 131 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:06,120 That's for $5 and up, and it's a creative visualization to help 132 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,800 you connect to your higher guidance. 133 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,200 You can use it even if it's not the Pisces New Moon. 134 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,080 In fact, I'll probably edit it a little bit to make it just 135 00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:17,640 tuning in with your guidance. I really like the editing I did 136 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,320 on that. I did that one myself. 137 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,120 I didn't ask anybody to help me with the editing, and it's 138 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,160 pretty cool. I want to talk to you before I 139 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,280 come through the shit show that's March. 140 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,960 I want to talk to you more about how we can actually harness this 141 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,680 energy to our advantage instead of getting caught up in the 142 00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:44,600 collective waves of worry, fear, doubt, insecurity, panic, all 143 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:50,000 the all the big fields that including outrage that deplete 144 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:56,000 us over time and how we can replenish ourselves in this 145 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,000 energy. So there's that. 146 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,120 So grab your tea, grab your coffee, grab your matcha, grab 147 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,960 your cocoa. And whether we're driving to 148 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:10,240 work or school, or we're studying, or we're taking the 149 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:15,040 kids on a walk, or we're taking ourselves on a walk, or we're 150 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,760 shopping, or we're folding laundry and cleaning the 151 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,080 kitchen, we're doing it together. 152 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:40,360 All right, let's get started. There will be talk of rumors of 153 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:46,880 war, end of time, end of days, and the profits on every street 154 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,960 corner will be hailing the end of the world. 155 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,200 And if I had a dollar for every time that happened, I'd be a 156 00:10:54,200 --> 00:11:01,480 very wealthy woman. There will be discordance in 157 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,840 March in the outer world because we're dealing with systems 158 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,360 change. We're dealing with power 159 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,480 dynamics change. And I'm going to tell you that 160 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:15,000 everything and everyone in charge right now, with some 161 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:21,440 exceptions but few, will not be here with great longevity, OK? 162 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,840 They're not going to be here for two decades, OK? 163 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,640 They're not going to be here for a decade. 164 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:32,360 There's going to be rapid change in the preceding months and 165 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:39,960 years because everything on this planet is changing because we're 166 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:46,840 in another rung on the wheel of evolution, and hopefully not 167 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,480 revolution, because revolution just tends to lead us with 168 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,560 another despot. You know, revolution means to 169 00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:57,680 turn in a single turn on a wheel, whereas when we're 170 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,240 evolving, we're moving up in spiral. 171 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,040 Unless we're devolving, but that's a discussion for another 172 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,520 day. I personally don't think 173 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,400 nihilism is very sexy, nor do I think it is realistic. 174 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:17,200 I think fatalistic nihilism is a cause of many of our problems 175 00:12:18,680 --> 00:12:22,840 and this energy. In March, we have Venus already 176 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,880 retrograde. Mercury will be retrograde on 177 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,520 the day of the full moon, which is also an eclipse. 178 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:34,520 And it's easy to look at that and go that's a lot, but wait, 179 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:40,400 there's more. We have Neptune entering Aries 180 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,320 and a solar eclipse. All of this I'm covering in the 181 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:49,720 magazine as well. It's volatile. 182 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:55,160 These are the winds of change that are blowing in hot and 183 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:59,840 hard. And yet it is in this chaotic 184 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:05,000 space that is almost liminal that we can create our own 185 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,000 magic. Now, most people mistake magic 186 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,640 with getting their own way all of the time, and I think there's 187 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,120 many a practitioner who can tell you for certain that that isn't 188 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:22,160 how it works. That we can create a bubble of 189 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:30,040 reality around us that is a little harder to shatter when we 190 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,200 are able to hold our consciousness steady. 191 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:39,160 Now, I wrote an article for the magazine on what it means to 192 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,960 hold our consciousness, and I gave one of my very favorite 193 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,040 exercises, which is narrating your reality. 194 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:53,320 It's easy to get caught up in the social media and the means 195 00:13:53,560 --> 00:13:58,520 and the rallying cries and people just begin repeating one 196 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,200 another. And that is a very dangerous 197 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:07,120 thing. Emotions are contagious. 198 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,880 Thoughts are contagious, but to hold your consciousness allows 199 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,800 you to sway the collective consciousness. 200 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,360 But you can't do it for that reason. 201 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,280 Do you remember Jeannie in Aladdin? 202 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,640 You know, when Robin Williams played the Jeannie Cosmic Power 203 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,000 in any bitty living space? We are. 204 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,320 Jeannie's in a bottle in her own right. 205 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,200 And I'm not talking about gin. Don't correct me on the 206 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:37,080 mythology, I'm well aware of it. We're going with a cartoon, but 207 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:41,600 imagine the greater part of you is connected to the whole of the 208 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,400 universe, and it's squeezed into this physical being, which is 209 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,920 your physical body. And we are powerful, and we're 210 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,240 more powerful when we connect collectively. 211 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,120 And yet the collective is. So I'll trained, and I will 212 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,240 wager that it was done purposely, because notice how 213 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,600 they whip people up into a frenzy? 214 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:09,920 Because the more we are blowing our wad of energy impotently by 215 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,440 screaming into the void, the less we are able to join 216 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:19,400 together in concert, expending much less energy and being much 217 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:25,720 more effective. The energy in March is one that 218 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,480 if you can hold study in your faith. 219 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,920 And I'm not talking militant, connecting to your God, your 220 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,520 goddess, your all that is, your higher self, your guides, your 221 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:43,680 guidance, your ancestors, whatever you want to call it, 222 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:52,240 your source, your universe. If you can do that and trust 223 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:59,160 that you can be like water, as Bruce Lee said us to be. 224 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:04,920 Be like water, my friend, and you influence outcomes, and they 225 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,600 don't have to be big influences. You're not going to get World 226 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,080 Peace. First of all, that's probably 227 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,160 unattainable at any point in time. 228 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,560 We have never had it. There may be things you were 229 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:22,160 unaware of, and maybe now you're finding that being aware is not 230 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:23,880 always what you thought it would be. 231 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,600 But if you can hold your consciousness, and I'm not 232 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:33,880 saying put your head in the sand like an ostrich, but if you can 233 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:38,360 hold your consciousness in the face of what is and see it that 234 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:44,480 it is what it is, and put your feet firmly on the ground and be 235 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,760 in the moment and assess the reality of your present moment, 236 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,200 then you can help shift the tide ever so slightly. 237 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,080 And it's ever so slightly that will make the difference. 238 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,840 That is power. Power is not in the grand 239 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,000 gestures and the big manifestations and the oh look, 240 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,000 a new car, oh, I won the lottery. 241 00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:16,359 Miracles and manifestation are when the most unlikely little 242 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,160 things occur. When someone you thought would 243 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:26,599 never choose a certain direction for their own benefit suddenly 244 00:17:26,599 --> 00:17:32,200 gives you a call and says, I've decided to do this thing that 245 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,960 will help me. Or when you can see through the 246 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:41,360 cracks, see the light, even on a dark and dreary day. 247 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:50,320 That is the space where magic happens and we will need our 248 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:57,120 imaginative faculties this month to imagine solutions, not 249 00:17:57,120 --> 00:17:59,520 problems. Anyone can point out a problem. 250 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,880 Anyone. It doesn't take a genius to 251 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,880 point out a problem. That's why all those pseudo 252 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,600 intellectuals do it. Oh, they talk around and round 253 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,400 about what is wrong with the world and blah blah blah. 254 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,880 It takes a genius to find a solution. 255 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,960 And as Einstein once said, the same thinking that creates the 256 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,880 problem cannot find the solution. 257 00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:29,160 You have to think differently. My friends and I know that the 258 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:34,360 world looks scary to many people right now, and I know we get 259 00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:38,720 through it. A lot of you want to know when 260 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,960 it's going to be OK. And I always say OK is relative. 261 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,160 And people say when is it going to be better. 262 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,320 And I say when we make it better. 263 00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:54,560 And that too is relative. We have to get clear, we have to 264 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:59,160 be concise, and we have to be focused. 265 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:06,480 And you can have ADHD and focus, you just have to redirect. 266 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,800 It takes practice. Ask me how. 267 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:18,080 So the most powerful thing you can do this month is start each 268 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:24,000 day intentionally and go to bed each night intentionally. 269 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:33,680 The way I do this is I as I roll over into my bed, I feel the 270 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:39,640 mattress under me and I say, oh gosh, I like the way this feels. 271 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,840 I like my sheets. I'm middle-aged so I get the 272 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:49,440 good ones. I like my sheets, Malcolm, my 273 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,920 dog is usually snuggling right up next to me and oh, I love 274 00:19:52,920 --> 00:20:00,040 Malcolm. And I say I'm going to sleep for 275 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:06,000 as long as I need and be as rested as I can so that I can 276 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:11,360 approach my day with the energy I need to be of service to 277 00:20:11,360 --> 00:20:17,040 myself and my community. And yes, that includes my 278 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,920 family. I don't see community as 279 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:26,680 exclusive of family. And then when I wake, I tell 280 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:32,400 myself I'm awake. And before I look at my phone 281 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:40,960 and check the Patreon or read my emails or check the news, I take 282 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:46,320 care of my physical needs, including making my coffee. 283 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:52,240 And I go sit outside or on the steps if it's inclement. 284 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,880 And I look at the sky and I say what a lovely day. 285 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:02,920 Today is a lovely day, even if I don't feel like it's lovely, 286 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,200 because some days I wake up on the wrong side of the bed just 287 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,760 like anybody else. But I do my best to correct my 288 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:15,320 course and then I remind myself of my intentions for the day. 289 00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:20,800 Not, oh, I intend to do those, but my intention is to be of 290 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,480 service. How am I serving today? 291 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:33,680 What is my agenda? When I do that, everything goes 292 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,920 well. It's the days I forget and I 293 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,000 check the news before I've had my coffee that things go South 294 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,560 pretty rapidly. And yet I can catch it by 295 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,560 noticing and say, oh, I think I need to do a reboot. 296 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,360 And I'll go outside and I'll look at the sky. 297 00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:58,920 I'll say, oh, what a lovely day. How can I be of service now? 298 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:03,440 Those are things I've done to trigger myself into a state of 299 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:09,760 consciousness, and that is the slipstream of thought that I 300 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:15,160 choose to be on instead of getting swept up in the furor of 301 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:21,360 life. I'm giving you this exercise in 302 00:22:21,360 --> 00:22:24,040 preparation for what's coming next because I'm going to go 303 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:30,240 over March's astrology, and in the outer world, it is going to 304 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,760 be very unstable. I don't think you need to be an 305 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:38,720 astrologer to figure that out. It's pretty evident about what's 306 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:47,960 going on right now. And yet we have the great 307 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:58,520 ability, the great ability to influence our own daily 308 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,920 existence even in the midst of struggle. 309 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:11,200 Learning to do that makes all the difference in the world and 310 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,800 it is honestly the basis of true wealth. 311 00:23:16,120 --> 00:23:18,680 I think we can see from the billionaire's behaviour that 312 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,720 they honestly have an affliction. 313 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,720 They do not know how to be satisfied. 314 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:37,240 They do not understand the joy of service and service isn't 315 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:42,040 about self denial. We can be comfortable and serve, 316 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:46,440 but if you do not know when you are full, when you have had 317 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:52,640 enough and when you are sated, well then nothing is ever 318 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,680 enough. What a sad life that is. 319 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:07,160 But likewise, self deprecation, false humility, pretentious 320 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:12,280 virtue and performative behaviour doesn't get us 321 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:18,880 anywhere either. Learning to find your sweet 322 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,960 spot. Reasonable contentment, 323 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:28,120 satisfaction in the moment is one of the most powerful states 324 00:24:28,120 --> 00:24:32,880 of consciousness you can't possess, and it is not one that 325 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:37,240 you will maintain 100% perfect ever in your life. 326 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,960 It is a constant balance, and balance isn't a constant thing. 327 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,320 In order to balance, you have to notice when you're off balance 328 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,560 to readjust. A ballerina doesn't stay on 329 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:54,040 their toes by standing still. They are consistently 330 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,080 correcting. Even though it may be difficult 331 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:02,000 to notice with your eyes, they are consistently correcting 332 00:25:02,360 --> 00:25:08,720 their balance. Balance requires movement and so 333 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:13,160 we notice when we're slipping if we're lucky and we course 334 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,080 correct. And by doing that, you are 335 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,240 difficult to manipulate. You are difficult to outrage. 336 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:25,440 Doesn't mean you won't be angry, but there's a big difference to 337 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:32,400 outrage and anger. And for those of you who are 338 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:40,840 tuning in from the 168 countries who listen, it kind of impacts 339 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,200 everybody. And do keep those of us in 340 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:50,760 America in your good thoughts. And I think you've realized if 341 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,800 you're in our community, we're not standing by Willy nilly. 342 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,440 There are many ways to make a difference. 343 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:06,360 Mine is to educate. All right, I've postponed it 344 00:26:06,360 --> 00:26:09,960 long enough. Let's take a look at March. 345 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,800 And by the way, if you are a supporting patron at the $5 346 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:22,720 level and up this Tuesday coming out is a special code so that 347 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:27,160 you can stream the 2025 year ahead for free. 348 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:34,880 Because I just, I was going to wait till April or May and I, I 349 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,040 just can't, it's, it's too volatile. 350 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,320 I'm like, no, people need this. But if you're a free patron, 351 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,160 you'll get a very, very special discount. 352 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,560 You'll get it for a very, very special price. 353 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,640 And I think you'll you'll be happy with that as well. 354 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,280 So if you're wanting that, you can head over to the link in the 355 00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,560 show notes. All right, let's talk about 356 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:16,920 March 2025. It's a month Venus is retrograde 357 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,120 in Aries. Although I did a segment last 358 00:27:19,120 --> 00:27:20,560 week. If you missed it go back and 359 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,360 listen. But Venus in Aries isn't bad. 360 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,560 Everybody talking about Venus in Aries is ruining my. 361 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,200 No, Venus in Aries retrograde is not bad. 362 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:33,880 It's forcing review of what matters to you, what are your 363 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:38,000 values, what is personal. And that may mean there's some 364 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,000 painful things, but it's to review so you can make the 365 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,600 necessary changes and the necessary adjustments so that 366 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,560 you're more aligned authentically with your own 367 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:50,840 self. OK. 368 00:27:51,360 --> 00:27:56,920 And like I said earlier, sometimes awareness can be 369 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:01,040 painful because when we've deluded ourselves, when we've 370 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,240 bought into an illusion, when we've lived in the Maya of this 371 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:16,080 world, then we are prey to artifice, compromise, masking. 372 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,440 And when we start peeling back the layers and get into the 373 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,760 nitty gritty, well, it can be a lot. 374 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,320 I'm still avoiding for giving you the astrology. 375 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,480 I hate giving news like this. It's a bumpy month. 376 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,120 OK, Remember when I used to always say it's crunchy on the 377 00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:38,320 crunchy meter scale? This is at a one to 10. 378 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:45,000 It's a 12 OK, and it's pivotal and leaves us to April and April 379 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:53,000 is end of April is but I'll spend this month, which is nice 380 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,720 and long, getting you ready for next. 381 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:02,160 So God, we got to live one day at a time, though people don't 382 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,920 borrow trouble, don't borrow trouble, don't borrow trouble. 383 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:18,200 All right, let me see where is. Let me get and find my projects 384 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:24,640 there it is 2025 year ahead. All righty. 385 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:33,560 I find what's interesting is I wrote this back in May and June 386 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:40,040 of 2024 and but slide 4 says New Year's Eve kicks off with a bang 387 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:44,400 that sets action into motion. Old scores are not settled. 388 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:50,360 And then New Year's Day 2025 in action is an action that too has 389 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,680 consequences. And that's kind of the theme of 390 00:29:53,720 --> 00:30:00,680 2025 March. I'm just going to read through 391 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,080 this list very rapidly. I'm not. 392 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,200 And then I'll get into what's going to happen. 393 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,280 We've got Venus retrograde on the 1st, the second had Mercury 394 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,120 conjunct Neptune and the Sun squared Jupiter. 395 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,800 March 3rd Mercury ingresses into Aries. 396 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:21,680 So get ready for people to be popping up and having lots of 397 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,080 opinions. Be careful, people may take 398 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,200 things very, very personally where it's not intended as well. 399 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,800 March 5th Mercury's is sex style Pluto. 400 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,840 We could see some interesting air traffic with that. 401 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,600 We could also see some missiles, probably not in the United 402 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,200 States, but rocket launches, things like that. 403 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,600 March 7th, the Sun is trying Mars. 404 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:48,920 That's going to be a little spicy. 405 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,440 March 11th, Mercury is conjunct Venus. 406 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,440 March 12th we have the Sun conjunct Saturn, which might be 407 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:00,200 a somber day. March 14th, the sun is sextile 408 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,040 Venus. We have a full moon and Mercury 409 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,600 stations retrograde. And Oh yeah, if there's an 410 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:10,840 eclipse, that's a total lunar eclipse, and I'll talk about 411 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:16,480 that next week. We've got the Sun ingrass Aries, 412 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,000 which is the equinox on March 20th. 413 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,960 March 21st we have Venus sextile Pluto, which should be kind of 414 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:28,200 interesting because Venus retrograde sextile Pluto will be 415 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:36,480 when Venus is at, you know, 1° of, of Aries. 416 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,560 March 22nd we have the Sun conjunct Venus, the Sun in March 417 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:45,840 23rd the Sun is sextile Pluto, and then March 24th the Sun is 418 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:52,720 conjunct Mercury. Let's see, we have March 25th 419 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,440 Mercury is sextile Pluto again because it's retrograde, and 420 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:01,400 then March 27th Venus ingress Pisces and Venus is conjunct 421 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,600 Neptune. That's a very magical day. 422 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,520 And as we get towards the end of March, we'll talk about how you 423 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:13,520 can use that magical energy. March 29th, we have Mercury 424 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:19,760 conjunct Neptune and the new Moon, which is a partial solar 425 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,240 eclipse. And again, we'll be talking 426 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:27,640 about eclipses. Oh, next week, just because I 427 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,160 don't want this episode to be like forever and a day long 428 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:36,680 since I started recording late. And then we have a very historic 429 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,960 moment. March 30th, Neptune ingresses 430 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:45,800 into Aries. Oh boy, we haven't seen that 431 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:51,640 since 1861. Does that ring a bell? 432 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,280 Now? History does not often repeat, 433 00:32:56,280 --> 00:33:00,320 but it does rhyme. And if you haven't noticed, the 434 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,480 United States is somewhat divided. 435 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,920 I I honestly don't think we're as divided as they want us to 436 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,560 feel. And I feel certain things are 437 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,520 starting to unite us a little more than divide us. 438 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:19,760 I know there's diehards out there however been reading the 439 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:25,880 pulse online especially and not living in a vacuum so. 440 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,880 But I think we can expect some historic events. 441 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,480 This is what I had to say about March. close saves and close 442 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,800 shaves. A lot of could have been worse 443 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,360 energy. And that's the attitude I want 444 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,800 you to hold. If somebody said, oh, my God, I 445 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,040 could have had an accident, but you didn't, OK, Oh, my gosh, 446 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,600 that plane could have hit the other plane, but it didn't. 447 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,920 OK, Oh my gosh, this. This could have been a war, but 448 00:33:55,920 --> 00:34:00,800 it wasn't. We can recognize what could have 449 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,000 been, but we must recognize what is OK. 450 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,840 So close shaves and close shaves. 451 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,280 A lot of could have been worse energy, still a lot of water. 452 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,000 Big monsoon rains globally and that includes cyclones, 453 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,560 hurricane like winds, typhoons, atmospheric rivers, etcetera, 454 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,880 causing landslide, mud slides, erosion events, sinkholes, 455 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:25,080 strange tides, floods, etcetera. And that's going to be 456 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,560 throughout March. And in fact, we're going to 457 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,040 start kind of March off with some crunchy weather and then at 458 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,080 the end of the month, we're going to see it again. 459 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,639 We could see issues with chemicals, radiation, solar and 460 00:34:36,639 --> 00:34:39,840 otherwise toxic waste plastics and issues to do with water 461 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,880 quality, bad virus and flu season continues. 462 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,960 Lots of school closures and hospitals worldwide 463 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,239 unrestrained. Unlikely to see any kind of 464 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,199 lockdown now. I was have been saying for 465 00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:55,840 multiple years that a COVID isn't over. 466 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,960 Obviously we know that, but we're going to see multiple 467 00:34:59,960 --> 00:35:01,680 viruses. And I know a lot of people are 468 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,800 focusing on the bird flu. It is a concern. 469 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,080 But you can see there's no measles. 470 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,040 And then there has been a case of rubella also reported, which 471 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,440 is German measles, which is very serious. 472 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,240 And of course we've heard about mumps and, and what have you. 473 00:35:16,240 --> 00:35:18,000 I think we're going to hear about more. 474 00:35:18,240 --> 00:35:25,640 And so hygiene, wash your hands, wash your stuff, and wash with 475 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,840 soap and water when you can. Hand sanitizer is an emergency. 476 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:34,040 Major and Rachel and I actually talk about that on the Patron 477 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:38,040 Spotlight. World leaders continue to flex. 478 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,240 We could see missiles, drones, and conventional weapons used, 479 00:35:41,240 --> 00:35:45,280 especially submarines, Sonic weapons, espionage, NATO 480 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:49,400 involved in a conflict around March 13th and 14th. 481 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:56,920 Again, I wrote these predictions back in May and June of 2024. 482 00:35:57,720 --> 00:36:02,360 When days see within days of the full moon, which is on the 14th, 483 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:07,120 we look like we're on the brink of war, but things stall out. 484 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:12,080 Could be last minute diplomacy, a national tragedy or emergency 485 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,800 that stalls the leader or preempts an attack. 486 00:36:15,240 --> 00:36:19,400 Could also see things just not work as Mercury stations 487 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,000 retrograde. Collective sigh of relief. 488 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:27,880 However, it could also be an accidental breach of boundaries 489 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,200 or borders that causes tensions to spill over. 490 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,640 Extremely intense weather and of March. 491 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,760 Very wet, lots of flooding. Dam integrity is weak globally. 492 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:45,440 Storm surges are massive. Now there's another whole page 493 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:54,280 OK of of information and but I don't want to freak everybody 494 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,080 out. So it it's there's a lot going 495 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:58,800 on in the world. We're going to, we're going to 496 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,960 see some power outages. And when we talk about the grid 497 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:09,080 in America, people are talking about it in correctly, OK, 498 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,720 incorrectly. People act like we have one big 499 00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:17,120 National Grid and we do not. We have hundreds of grids in 500 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:21,320 this country, if not thousands that are interconnected. 501 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:26,640 Texas is its own deal and they they need to work on that shit. 502 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,840 But we don't just have one singular power grid. 503 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:37,680 OK, First of all, that would be dumb to do Texas and I don't 504 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,200 even think all of Texas's is on when I think they have like 2 505 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:45,200 but it's it's kind of dumb. But having different relays with 506 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,200 is smart because if one goes down you can feed into another. 507 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,600 Now these could be three issues with Transformers. 508 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,840 This could be power outages due to weather. 509 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,640 This could be any manner of things. 510 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:03,880 There is potential for conflict in the United States, OK, it is 511 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,160 obvious there. There are wrecking balls 512 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,880 happening to the system, which did need restructuring, but it 513 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:13,640 didn't need to be so damn messy and and playing whack a mole 514 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:19,080 with with agencies and policy and ignoring our Constitution is 515 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,760 usually not a favorable thing to do. 516 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:27,840 So there could be some interesting policy decisions 517 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,800 that come out of the administration that 'cause 518 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:37,880 people to protest and protest. Lovely. 519 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,720 And I do know we have veterans protest on the 14th in 520 00:38:40,720 --> 00:38:43,520 Washington, DC. And I was like, oh, wow, that's 521 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,360 interesting. We'll see how that goes. 522 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,120 It is. If you live in the Washington, 523 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:57,120 DC area, especially those of you who've had readings with me in 524 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:01,280 the last six months, especially actually the last year and a 525 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:05,320 half when we've looked at March and April, I have been 526 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:09,320 concerned, especially into the end of April, I've been very 527 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:14,080 concerned about the DC area. Do be cautious and I would say 528 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:19,400 anywhere within an hour of Washington, DC especially, there 529 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,120 could be some interesting happenings and that could be 530 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:30,520 police action. That could be quasi, you know, 531 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,600 security rules like checkpoints and things like that. 532 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,560 I've been asked, do I think there's going to be martial law? 533 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:46,760 And I talked about that in the Martyrs Direct live stream that 534 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,680 I did for patrons for free and paid, and it is in my Patreon 535 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,960 and it is something you just have to sign up and you can go 536 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:55,440 watch. And I did talk about the 537 00:39:55,440 --> 00:40:03,880 potential for martial law. I don't give it an 80% chance. 538 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:08,120 OK, so that means I am uncertain. 539 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:14,040 It is not out of the realm of possibility and it is also not 540 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,840 something I'm going to say you need to overly worry about. 541 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:23,840 But I would say be more than ready for that potential between 542 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:30,600 mid March and early May because things are very, very volatile. 543 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:36,040 And I think we'll know more as we get past that eclipse because 544 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:43,160 that eclipse is a bit gnarly. It's it's a bit interesting, 545 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:48,520 darlings. So March is spicy. 546 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:54,680 It's not all that favorable for a couple of people in the 547 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:58,440 administration. There's a lot of physical 548 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,280 pressure there. And so we could see illnesses 549 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:08,600 with leaders, etcetera. My predictions are already out. 550 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:14,480 So the predictions that are in the magazine are already out in 551 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:18,040 the Patreon because if you are a magazine subscriber and that's 552 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:22,360 at the $15 level and up of the Patreon, I always give you the 553 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:27,320 sneak peek of what's in the headlines and your horoscopes. 554 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,480 So those are up. This week is a week. 555 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:35,160 Every week is a week this month. So now these are the things I 556 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,720 think are most likely to be up in the headlines. 557 00:41:38,720 --> 00:41:41,520 And don't get mad at me that it's not good news because 558 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,600 honestly 90% of what's in the headline isn't good news. 559 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:49,560 It's not my fault. So March 1st through the 3rd, 560 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,720 the moon in Aries is demanding and fiery. 561 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,160 And since this is coming out on the third, you'll probably 562 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,000 recognize some of these things that were in the headlines. 563 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,320 Financial news, corrections and markets, issues with banking or 564 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,560 payment gateways, and that's all currencies as well. 565 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,520 Discovery of arsonists or terrorist, issues with 566 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,960 explosives. Weather patterns change, storm 567 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,960 systems stall cycling weather, which we're seeing believe the 568 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,800 Indian Ocean. Peace agreements fall, fail in 569 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,720 all regions. Peace agreements fail in all 570 00:42:24,720 --> 00:42:28,560 regions. Oh, I wrote Peach. 571 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:30,880 My editor's gonna have fun with that. 572 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:33,240 Iranian leadership under pressure. 573 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:38,080 Issues with King of Jordan, Chemical spills, oil leaks, or 574 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,720 issues with corrosive materials. Let's see. 575 00:42:41,720 --> 00:42:45,840 Volcanic eruption or firestorm or issue with lava flows and 576 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,080 lahars. Issues with military's rogue 577 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,720 units or mercenaries. Increase in geothermal 578 00:42:51,720 --> 00:42:53,760 activities. Military contractor under 579 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,800 investigation or speaks out against current policies. 580 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,440 Retailer of note may face bankruptcy or close locations. 581 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:08,320 Not Joann's because they had already done so. 582 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,200 Authoritarians on shaky ground in Eastern Europe, Western 583 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,200 Europe, Levant, North and South America. 584 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,560 Attempted coups, insurrections and political violence. 585 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:23,280 Political violence in city center, mall or other public 586 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:25,520 venue. Could see a shooting or stabbing 587 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,440 Poland, dealing with border security and potential sabotage 588 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,320 or terrorist attacks. Issues with military. 589 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,560 Oh I broke that twice. International organizations 590 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,560 under strain or face crisis, UN, NATO, etcetera. 591 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,360 Leaders of all forms face opposition. 592 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,000 Potential assassinations or deposing of leaders. 593 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,440 Political dissidents and political protests on mass. 594 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,440 And we saw that a little bit in Europe. 595 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:54,400 Leaders in business, politics and entertainment face backlash 596 00:43:54,400 --> 00:44:00,600 by lawsuits and legal means. And we saw some of that March 597 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:03,200 3rd through the 5th with the Moon in Taurus. 598 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,240 The moon in Taurus is excited with the shake UPS. 599 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,880 Things could get heated. We could see earthquakes above 6 600 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:15,400 point O, possible increased potential of seismic activity, 601 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:19,320 any active seismic zone. I'm, I'm not picking directions 602 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,800 right now 'cause just everything's a little more 603 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:25,920 volatile. But the activity above a six 604 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:30,920 point O would be in the more active fault lines, probably 605 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,440 offshore. OK, as Neptune is in the later 606 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,920 degrees. Neptune does play a role since 607 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:41,080 it's in a sextile with Uranus right now. 608 00:44:42,720 --> 00:44:45,640 Explosions both accidental and man made. 609 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:50,560 Arsons of government buildings and or manufacturing plants that 610 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:54,240 could also be attempted. Global financial crisis 611 00:44:54,240 --> 00:44:57,960 announced or stock markets fall. Crypto markets volatile. 612 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:01,760 They could tank. I wrote that before it started 613 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,120 tanking. Food poisoning or disease caused 614 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,400 by food. Issues with cattle herds, 615 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:12,280 disease or pests. Explosions at manufacturing or 616 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:16,920 food processing plants. Issues with munitions, depots, 617 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:19,360 plants or stolen weapons and equipment. 618 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,960 Massive accident involving semi trucks and or rail. 619 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,840 Talk of sanctions against major world powers. 620 00:45:27,240 --> 00:45:30,000 Can also be boycotting or buy insurance too. 621 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,000 Tech sector challenged union activity. 622 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,800 Calls for strikes, contract disputes and layoffs. 623 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:39,520 Trump's health in question or go or he goes off the rails in some 624 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:44,040 way. Cybersecurity breaches, data 625 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:48,600 breaches, DNS server attacks, malware and ransomware, issues 626 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,480 with livestock, food production, processing and farms and 627 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,000 ranches. We could see a big accident or 628 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,320 explosion or fire, could involve some kind of radiation or gas 629 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,920 leak, could be more than one kind of event globally. 630 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:09,760 And and it it could just be, you know, just a regular accident. 631 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:14,640 Could see outburst by people of note, temper tantrums, outrage 632 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:17,760 and ranting. Big erosion events, landslides, 633 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:21,120 mudsides, sinkholes, levy breaches, dike failures and dam 634 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,240 breachers. Global. 635 00:46:22,240 --> 00:46:25,480 All of my predictions are global unless I'm mentioning in AUS 636 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,200 event. Huge weather issues, lightning, 637 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:31,240 hail, hurricanes, tornadoes, cyclones, sandstorms or 638 00:46:31,240 --> 00:46:34,600 torrential rain and flooding. Australia. 639 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,960 Watch out for that financial institutions, big bank, private 640 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,800 equity firms and credit card companies under pressure, retail 641 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:47,480 giant under pressure or strain, maritime accident with or issues 642 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,800 with Navy bases, authority figures, leaders challenge, 643 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,080 scandals revealed and lies exposed. 644 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:57,000 March 5th through the 9th. The moon is in Gemini isn't able 645 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,840 to go forward fast and things are bumpy because you know, 646 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:04,200 Mercury's pre retrograde so it's starting to things will feel a 647 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,600 little wibbly wobbly. We could see big wind, 648 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,880 fluctuating currents, temperatures swinging wildly. 649 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,160 Could be hurricanes, microbursts, tornadoes, 650 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,760 sandstorms, unseasonable wind. And it isn't necessarily when I 651 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:20,480 say hurricane, it's like hurricane level wind, multiple 652 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:25,680 storms active in one region. This is global issues with air 653 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:30,200 travel, delays, air travel, air traffic control and accidents of 654 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:34,680 small aircraft and helicopters. Could be military poison, 655 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,960 poisoning or air quality. Water quality discussed. 656 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,800 Massive car accident. Pile up issues on freeways or 657 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,800 high speed rail. Issues with gas, chemicals or 658 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,400 radiation. Issues with commercial flights, 659 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:51,080 airports or air traffic control or employees at airports or 660 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:54,160 airlines. Rockets, satellites, ISS, 661 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,560 International Space Station and astronauts. 662 00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,360 Data breaches and communication disruptions. 663 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:03,200 Meteorites, Northern Lights or space debris falls to earth. 664 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,360 Missiles, drones and sneak attacks. 665 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,320 Legal matters, justice and federal high courts. 666 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:13,600 Global major author, Speaker of thought, leader speaks out or 667 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:17,440 has scandal, issue with music industry, streaming service or 668 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,840 high profile entertainer.

Issues with NATO, European Union 670 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,320 journalists or journalism in the news. 671 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,720 Violence towards journalists or it could be being locked out of 672 00:48:30,720 --> 00:48:33,840 the press corps. Secrets leaked or revealed from 673 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:35,880 corporations or government agencies. 674 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:39,160 Documents discovered that cause scandal or shed light on an 675 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,360 unsolved mystery. Major manufacturer issues, 676 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:48,880 recalls or has investigation into faulty parts, explosion in 677 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,640 air, satellite fails or falls to earth, meteorites or shooting 678 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:56,440 stars or some strange happenings in the sky or lights in the sky 679 00:48:56,760 --> 00:49:00,600 could include space station astronauts having issues. 680 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:04,040 And then we wind up the week, March 7th through the 9th. 681 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,480 The moon in Cancer brings it all up. 682 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:10,520 Every last thing that happened in the past is up on deck and 683 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:14,120 people are grabbing torches. March 7th could see an 684 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:18,480 explosion, fire issue in a neighborhood or restaurant, big 685 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,960 weather on deck, rain, snow, ice, flooding, high tides on 686 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,520 rivers, breaches of sea walls, Rand or levees. 687 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,960 Big snowmelk could cause flooding on tributaries of large 688 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,240 rivers, arsons and fires and domestic dwellings. 689 00:49:31,240 --> 00:49:33,520 UK government may be under strain. 690 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:37,400 Public uprisings, global accident on major roads, 691 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,720 freeways or bridges.

Person of note has a health 701 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:16,640 crisis. Heart attack, stroke or 702 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:18,800 disoriented, dizzy or falls in public. 703 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,160 Populist leader under pressure or attacked verbally or 704 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:25,080 physically.

Banking and currencies under 707 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:36,120 strain, erosion causing storms, hurricane waterspouts, big 708 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:37,760 waves. OK, so we're going to see some 709 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,280 big weather because I wrote like three things about it. 710 00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:46,200 Restaurants close, issues with food supply and or drop my 711 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,640 mouse. I don't want to edit a whole lot 712 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,040 of this episode because I'm so tired. 713 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,800 You know what Monday is besides podcast day? 714 00:50:55,960 --> 00:51:00,320 It's mom and daughter day. That means I'm not going to get 715 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:04,600 any sleep. Oh, where did that go before I 716 00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,000 dropped it? Oh, that's right, secrets leaked 717 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,360 or revealed from corporations or government. 718 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:12,880 It rolled all the way up to the last page. 719 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,000 Here we go. Major infrastructure destroyed 720 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:20,200 or big failure of dam bridges or shopping center potential 721 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:25,360 seismic activity mostly offshore but ranging from a 5.8 to 7 722 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,800 point O potential tsunami. I'm thinking that would be more 723 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:34,000 like in the Indonesia, Philippines, the Asia Pacific 724 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:39,880 region, maybe as far north as Japan, but it could be in any 725 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,200 active region in the Ring of Fire. 726 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:48,480 OK, water quality issues, environmental issues and climate 727 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:52,200 change, water wars begin and that's arguing over who has the 728 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:57,120 rights. Let's see, there we go. 729 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:05,320 So that's what we've got until the Moon moves into Leo and that 730 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:09,760 is going to be some big energy as well, especially on the 9th 731 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:13,600 when the Moon moves into Leo and it imposes Pluto and we can 732 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:16,440 expect a big butter booms with that as well. 733 00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,360 Global. Does that mean it's happening to 734 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,240 you directly? No, no it doesn't. 735 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,280 But do you want to be apprised of what's going on? 736 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:29,680 Clyde, I told you that 2025 would be the year that that no 737 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:34,480 one, well unless they're very narrow lensed, could say climate 738 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:37,400 change does not exist because it sure as hell does. 739 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,480 So we're all being impacted by it globally. 740 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,920 Yeah, we're going to see the impacts with weather, climate 741 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:46,920 conditions. I mean, North Carolina's got 742 00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,080 fires going on. It's freaking March. 743 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,040 You know, that's unheard of in March. 744 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:56,920 So, you know, there's there's all manner of things going on. 745 00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:01,880 So again, go back and listen to the segment before this and 746 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,800 remember, we can hold our consciousness because we have to 747 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:08,600 look at what's happening right to us, right in front of us, OK? 748 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:12,360 The time to panic is when it is time to panic, all right. 749 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:16,760 The time to get ready to run is when it's the time to run. 750 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:24,640 But letting our cortisol spike and our adrenaline rush when it 751 00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:28,600 is a perceived threat that is not directly in front of us and 752 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:32,920 not directly happening in the moment actually harms us and 753 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:37,600 does the perceived enemy no harm at all. 754 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:43,800 So keep your hands busy. That's what my great grandma 755 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,360 always used to say, keep your hands busy. 756 00:53:46,720 --> 00:53:51,080 And that's why she taught me to do embroidery and crochet when I 757 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:54,200 was a little girl. And they have gotten me through 758 00:53:54,200 --> 00:54:00,320 many a crisis in life because you have to focus on those 759 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,400 things. So get crafty, get creative. 760 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:07,800 It's time to start our starts or look at starting our gardens. 761 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,440 We had a wonderful patron spotlight last week. 762 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,800 You can check that out in the Patreon, regardless of 763 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:17,280 membership level with a wonderful patron Sam, where we 764 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,200 talked about small space gardening. 765 00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:26,400 And so there are things we can control, and that's what we want 766 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,160 to put our focus on because everything outside of our 767 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:33,000 control is outside of our control, OK? 768 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:37,760 And we can gather together intentionally. 769 00:54:38,720 --> 00:54:42,320 We can put our focus on the outcomes we'd like to see. 770 00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:48,480 And it's honestly never as strong a magic when we try to 771 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:56,080 get rid of a problem versus empower a solution, OK, there's 772 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:58,600 a big difference. I don't like that thing. 773 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,400 I want it gone. Makes it very difficult to 774 00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:05,360 remove. Whereas I want to see more of 775 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:10,440 this when we work with the energy, with the grain versus 776 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:14,560 against it, things are 10 times more powerful. 777 00:55:15,240 --> 00:55:17,960 So I ask you, what are your solutions? 778 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:22,360 I'll put a pull up.

Thank you for this opportunity 830 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:46,520 to be on the podcast. The MCE is the Metaphysical 831 00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:54,920 Community Exchange, and it's a Patreon I wanted to create to 832 00:59:54,920 --> 01:00:02,680 create a community. Right now it's just rough out 833 01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,280 there. I know you've talked about it. 834 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:12,200 I just want to have a safe space in a place where people can feel 835 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:18,640 comfortable, have conversation, learn, and. 836 01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:25,600 Just create that village. Everybody needs a village. 837 01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:28,520 Right. And in the village you're you're 838 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:32,520 envisioning are people who are practitioners of a variety of 839 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,120 beneficial, you know, whether it's tarot readers, people who 840 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:40,160 do crystals, people who do astrology, psychic is whatever 841 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,080 it is a place to grow, talk shop, etcetera. 842 01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:50,600 Yeah, so I separated out the communities based on kind of 843 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:54,760 like of a high level metaphysical area. 844 01:00:55,480 --> 01:01:03,880 We have tarot, mediumship, psychic abilities, witchcraft 845 01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:11,960 and just plain old spirituality. And it's, it's a place to talk 846 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:16,160 shop, but also promote small businesses. 847 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:21,880 I kind of want to make a directory that everybody can 848 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:28,440 link up that small business and anybody who's in the Patreon 849 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,800 could just look for service. And I want to be able to 850 01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:41,480 interview people, you know, raise voices and just have that 851 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:48,440 community vibe. Also exchange items, kind of 852 01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:53,560 like a metaphysical yard sale or trade. 853 01:01:55,160 --> 01:02:01,560 And I think that's important. It's something that I know is 854 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:08,000 going to be needed online. Just the way things are going 855 01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:15,240 financially around the globe. We're going to need that ability 856 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:23,280 to exchange here is 3 crystals for a deck of tarot cards, 857 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:27,880 things of that nature. So that's kind of, that's kind 858 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:33,960 of the direction I'm going in. And I wanted it, you know, it's 859 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:37,760 behind on the paywall, put it behind on a small paywall. 860 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:43,160 I have just like community member level and that's about 5 861 01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:49,800 diodes amounts and then menopositions, menopositions 862 01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:57,800 level and that's $10 a month. So I do that just to protect the 863 01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:03,680 community. I don't want, yeah, I don't want 864 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:08,080 people to go in there with bad intentions. 865 01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:15,760 I want to have a judgment free zone, and that's the biggest 866 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:19,120 thing. I know things are going to get 867 01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:24,200 rough for everybody, but especially those in the 868 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:29,280 metaphysical community. So I just want to have that. 869 01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:33,480 Yeah. I just want to have that safe 870 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:39,640 corner of the world for them and that was my inspiration to kind 871 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:43,600 of put things together. I love that. 872 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:46,520 That's a great idea. And I like the idea of an 873 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:53,320 exchange, especially when you're just getting started out, too. 874 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,360 It's a way to build confidence. I did that plenty. 875 01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:59,960 I traded actually astrology for therapy back in 1999. 876 01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,520 That gave me a lot of confidence, even though I was 877 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:07,560 already charging for readings. But my therapist was like, I was 878 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:12,520 like, I want to pay you. And he was like, I'd actually 879 01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:16,840 rather you do astrology for me. I was like, oh, really? 880 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:22,240 OK, you know, he was very cool and very rare and special person 881 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:28,760 helping that Mama out. But and then other times when I 882 01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:33,040 didn't have a lot of money, I would trade for a massage, you 883 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:38,200 know, making sure it's equal or with a medium or a tarot reader 884 01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:40,880 or somebody who did something a little differently than me as 885 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:46,600 we've moved along. It's a great way to start when 886 01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:49,880 you talk about a Safeway to have a conversation for you. 887 01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:52,800 What are the elements of safety that that you're bringing for 888 01:04:52,800 --> 01:05:00,160 people? It's coming down to feeling 889 01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:09,400 comfortable being authentic, not being judged, being able to have 890 01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:17,640 an open but respectful conversation, and just not 891 01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:22,800 having drama. I've seen you laugh. 892 01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:32,520 I've seen so many platforms that have drama and people feed into 893 01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:36,400 that. I don't want that in my Patreon. 894 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:40,040 I would hope that would not have happened. 895 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:47,960 I just want people to feel like they can communicate, they can 896 01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:58,680 talk about what they think, what they feel, and not have to 897 01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:05,880 worry, not looking. For fight, you do see that 898 01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:09,840 extended in some spaces, metaphysical spaces, I think a 899 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:15,360 lot of times because there's elements that are looking when 900 01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:17,920 they feel, when people feel powerless, they're looking, 901 01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:19,680 they're looking for that. They think they're finding 902 01:06:19,680 --> 01:06:22,920 answers. And then you get, you know, 903 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:27,080 dogmatic fights and there's room kind of for everything. 904 01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:30,040 Yeah. So I love that you're you're 905 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:32,960 doing that so. Yeah. 906 01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:38,520 Go ahead. I think it hurts our our 907 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:41,920 community globally when we attack each other. 908 01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:48,000 I kind of look at the witch wars on TikTok. 909 01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:53,320 TikTok. I'm like, those were a really 910 01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:55,240 good example of what I was talking about. 911 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:58,760 They both had a little bit of power and they don't realize 912 01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:02,760 it's patriarchy adjacent and by dividing ourselves, you know, 913 01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,080 right. And yeah, it's. 914 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:11,360 They're like popularity contests, like back in high 915 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:13,560 school. Inch. 916 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:17,960 Yeah. You know, communication, ideas, 917 01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:22,680 knowledge. We don't have to one up each 918 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:28,160 other. We need to come together 919 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:34,720 globally because dividing us takes away our power. 920 01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:38,720 Yeah, absolutely it does. It does. 921 01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:45,080 So you, you are a polymath. OK, So I happen to know Kim very 922 01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:49,560 well 'cause she's been, she's one of my, my real ones who's 923 01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,960 been through the whole, the whole right. 924 01:07:55,520 --> 01:08:00,640 It's been a journey, but I happen to know you do a lot of 925 01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:02,600 things. You're very handy. 926 01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:07,280 You do your own, you do a lot of DIY stuff. 927 01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:11,320 You have an Etsy shop as well. We're going to do a little 928 01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:18,120 unboxing of things today. But for you, you tend to work a 929 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:21,319 lot with nature and natural elements. 930 01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:26,120 Let's talk. About that, so kind of speaking 931 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:32,240 on a DIY, I'm really taking things back to when our 932 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:40,760 grandparents were around. It's more than just the anti 933 01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:44,319 processed foods, chemical movement. 934 01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:47,720 It's stuff we can find in nature. 935 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:58,720 I practice witchcraft by by you know myself and foraging and. 936 01:08:58,720 --> 01:09:02,120 And you you lean into the Celtic tradition, correct? 937 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:06,279 Yes, I learn more into, you know, the Irish path. 938 01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:13,960 I'm not, you know, obviously living in Ireland, so I'm not 939 01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:20,120 considered an Irish witch, but that's the path I kind of go 940 01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:22,640 along. That's your ancestry. 941 01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:29,240 Yeah, I'm only second generation, so, you know, my 942 01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:34,840 grandfather was, you know, immigrated here when he was 17, 943 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:39,120 and we've been in the Boston area. 944 01:09:40,240 --> 01:09:44,319 Couldn't tell. To generate yes the accent. 945 01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:47,080 Now I'm trying to patrol it right now. 946 01:09:47,399 --> 01:09:49,479 No, I love it. I love it when you say my car. 947 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:55,560 My car I'm trying to speak so slow. 948 01:09:56,360 --> 01:10:01,560 You said be inauthentic. Yes I love all of you. 949 01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:07,480 Get the letter ripped. Pack the car the have a yard. 950 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:15,160 Exactly. But but with that said, I I do 951 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:19,440 things like make my home cleaning products, you know, my 952 01:10:19,440 --> 01:10:25,720 own large detergent, pine saw. People don't realize pine saw 953 01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:30,800 was literally made from pine needles and vinegar. 954 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:36,560 That's all. And it's absolutely kind of 955 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:40,080 ridiculous to buy that at the store. 956 01:10:40,440 --> 01:10:49,920 Nature supplies, you know, and I make things at home, cut costs. 957 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:56,240 It allows me to put my little witchy spin on protections and 958 01:10:56,240 --> 01:11:03,320 cleanses. And it just, it just feels 959 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:07,760 better. It's a it's, it's all areas. 960 01:11:08,480 --> 01:11:14,120 It saves me money. It's natural. 961 01:11:14,280 --> 01:11:17,920 I know I'm not, you know, poisoning my family. 962 01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:23,480 And it's easy. It's so easy. 963 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:26,800 And that's some of the things I'm bringing to the community as 964 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:35,880 well, not just all traditional thoughts of metaphysics, you 965 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:43,160 know, working this in day-to-day and what you could do. 966 01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:49,720 You know, I put up a little pictures all the time in Patreon 967 01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:54,160 of saying, hey, you're making a cup of tea, stir your 968 01:11:54,160 --> 01:12:00,440 intentions, use certain herbs and your tea, things of that 969 01:12:00,440 --> 01:12:04,360 nature. And that's also something I'm 970 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:09,720 bringing to the community. I build things. 971 01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:17,120 I become my own home handyman. I've always had a knack. 972 01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:23,840 I like to take things apart, investigate and put it back 973 01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:32,000 together or make it better. If I see something on the TV, I 974 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,480 can build it. Yeah, I. 975 01:12:34,480 --> 01:12:38,080 Love that. That's just my personality. 976 01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:41,880 Mm Hmm. Well, and just for your 977 01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:46,880 listeners to know, you know, you are the head of your household, 978 01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:51,000 you know, you are the breadwinner for your family and 979 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:54,560 it is, you know, on you to make sure things are happening. 980 01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:59,240 And I think there's a lot of people who will think they need 981 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:01,640 somebody else. Now, granted you do hire 982 01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:05,360 contractors for like important stuff like electrical and roofs 983 01:13:05,440 --> 01:13:09,680 and things like that, but you make your own honeydew and 984 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:14,280 you're the honey who do's. I know there's a lot of people 985 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:17,400 who think, oh, I can't do that because I didn't learn how to 986 01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:19,960 use power tools as a kid. What do you say to that? 987 01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:26,480 You too is your friend. Honestly, YouTube's your friend. 988 01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:33,320 I used to think the same thing. Is that patriarchal mindset. 989 01:13:33,480 --> 01:13:38,640 I can do it, a power tools, a man's thing. 990 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:47,400 No, it's not it's easy. Just look it up, see a couple of 991 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:52,720 videos, follow along, and eventually you'll be putting up 992 01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:58,040 walls, building your own furniture, fixing anything that 993 01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:02,280 broke in your house. It's easy stuff. 994 01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:07,360 And that's kind of some of the things as well. 995 01:14:07,360 --> 01:14:13,120 I'm bringing to the Patreon that attitude of you can do it. 996 01:14:13,440 --> 01:14:17,120 You don't need anybody's help unless you want it. 997 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:22,640 Right, and you know, if it's if it's two person job, obviously, 998 01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:27,400 you know, you know, but there are many things that we can do 999 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:31,680 and be self-sufficient in. And I think when I see the term 1000 01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:36,520 witch, knowing that it was always a derogatory term, you 1001 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:39,280 know, people didn't they thought they were wise people. 1002 01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:41,720 They were people who were good at nature crafting. 1003 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:48,680 They were people who were makers and and connected to nature and 1004 01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:51,360 they might have had traditional beliefs that went way back. 1005 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:54,560 Maybe they forgot about it like from the time of the Druids or a 1006 01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:59,440 more indigenous lifestyle, because Europe had indigeneity 1007 01:14:59,440 --> 01:15:06,920 as well, right? But and so got got knocked out 1008 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:11,880 by the Romans in general, but it was there and it's been carried 1009 01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:16,120 forth. Like my great grandma did a lot 1010 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:20,200 of witchy stuff. She wouldn't ever classify it 1011 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:22,560 herself. So sad because she was very much 1012 01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:27,760 a churchgoer. And one of the things people had 1013 01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,040 a problem with women was their independence. 1014 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:32,200 And that's why so many got accused of witchcraft. 1015 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:36,080 Whether they were not was their independence. 1016 01:15:36,440 --> 01:15:40,680 And women today need that empowerment. 1017 01:15:40,920 --> 01:15:44,360 So I love what you're doing. What do you say to this when 1018 01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:47,000 people are like, oh, I don't want to call myself this or. 1019 01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:51,800 Be yourself. Knowledge is as power. 1020 01:15:52,760 --> 01:16:01,320 Not having to rely on somebody else is the most empowering 1021 01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:05,920 thing. And if you need to, that's OK. 1022 01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:11,400 Asking for help, OK, but you can do it. 1023 01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:15,440 You don't need to fall behind somebody else. 1024 01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:20,600 Independence. It's not a bad word, no matter 1025 01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:28,640 who makes you believe it is. You're not that lonely cat lady 1026 01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:31,360 that everybody is against, right? 1027 01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:35,560 Now, how can you be lonely when you got a cat? 1028 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:38,120 Exactly. Exactly. 1029 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:43,080 It's kind of like those, I shouldn't say men. 1030 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:51,280 It's fact that the reason why cats, especially Black Cats, are 1031 01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:57,720 associated with witches was back into I think it was the 1400s 1032 01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:05,200 around the bubonic plague side. They were used to catch rats and 1033 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:12,840 the witches or medicinal women. We keep the cats for that. 1034 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:22,000 And because someone someday just decided, oh, that's a witch, 1035 01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:25,960 they have a cat. Cats are the devil. 1036 01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:31,920 They got rid of the cats and the bubonic plague happened because 1037 01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:34,320 nobody was there to catch the rats. 1038 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:38,600 So like, our people have always been geniuses. 1039 01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:45,360 Right, exactly. But it it's again, it's that 1040 01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:56,960 judgement that gets the best of people and it's kind of like if 1041 01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:59,800 it's do no harm, why do you care? 1042 01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:07,920 Who cares like. I'm of an age where you had to 1043 01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:11,840 be undercover unless you were in very specific places, so I spent 1044 01:18:11,920 --> 01:18:15,960 like 20 years very, very quiet about what you did. 1045 01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:22,480 Same here. Yeah, I'm, I'm on the end of 1046 01:18:22,480 --> 01:18:27,600 Gen. X, but I grew up in a Catholic 1047 01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:33,480 religious house in Boston, Irish Catholic. 1048 01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:39,080 So my parents were actually really relaxed. 1049 01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:45,280 They didn't force me to church, but I still have respect for the 1050 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:53,880 church at the time. But being brought up that way, 1051 01:18:54,840 --> 01:19:03,200 we had to hide any signs of witchcraft, Tara, things like 1052 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:08,480 that. And now I have my malaria, 1053 01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:13,720 practicing witchcraft and carrying crystals. 1054 01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:18,840 It's the 1st of the month. I was smoke cleansing my house, 1055 01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:27,240 prepping up the protections and you know, my little spells and 1056 01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:30,640 she was all Thor. She's like, don't forget it's 1057 01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:34,880 the first mom, let's go. We have to get the house cleanse 1058 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:40,880 180 Growing up that would have been taboo. 1059 01:19:41,560 --> 01:19:46,560 Kind of do that in your room, not all public so. 1060 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:52,480 Yeah, and I love that it, it creates community in the home 1061 01:19:52,480 --> 01:19:55,480 when you get to do it together. Yeah, you know, that's that's we 1062 01:19:55,480 --> 01:19:58,640 forget community starts there in in our dwellings. 1063 01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:00,840 Yeah. So to have everybody on board is 1064 01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:04,800 really nice. So you have an Etsy store also 1065 01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:09,040 called MCE, right? Yes, because behind you is like 1066 01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:13,600 jewelry stuff. Yes, all my balls. 1067 01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:16,080 Sorry. Yeah. 1068 01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:21,720 Oh my goodness, jewels and bracelets. 1069 01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:25,160 I actually this feels really good. 1070 01:20:25,160 --> 01:20:28,240 I'm just starting to open one. You sent me a couple things, so 1071 01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:29,400 I'm opening. One of. 1072 01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:35,800 Oh those are beautiful. Oh wow, oh wow this feels so 1073 01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:38,160 good.

Glasses are. 1076 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:47,680 It is smoky quartz. OK, So it's not. 1077 01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:50,040 I was like, my glasses are screwing up, is it? 1078 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:53,880 But it is smoky quartz.

There's a lot of pictures like 1152 01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:54,320 this, like, so I know I look like a natural. 1153 01:25:55,320 --> 01:26:00,240 I'm not. It's a lot of practice, so just 1154 01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:02,440 keep doing it. Yeah, that's why I'm making you 1155 01:26:02,440 --> 01:26:06,080 guys get up here.

Right. 1165 01:26:46,920 --> 01:26:49,000 Oh, it's like that for everybody. 1166 01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:54,280 You're doing great.

And because they're more 1173 01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:18,240 confident on camera, they they're able to put themselves 1174 01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:21,600 out there and, and meet whatever agenda they have, neither good 1175 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:23,360 nor bad. I'm not saying there's anything 1176 01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:25,720 bad with that or good with that. It's just the truth. 1177 01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:31,320 But there's so many talented, heartfelt, heart centered people 1178 01:27:31,320 --> 01:27:33,520 doing good stuff. And you are a wealth of 1179 01:27:33,520 --> 01:27:36,160 knowledge. Like you're an advocate for 1180 01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:38,560 people.

She spoils me. 1254 01:33:47,800 --> 01:33:51,280 That's one of the things I'm doing is I'm bringing people in 1255 01:33:51,400 --> 01:33:55,960 the no longer published tier of cosmic surfers on, especially if 1256 01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:58,760 they have a business they want to shout out. 1257 01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:02,000 We got to support one another every time we support a small 1258 01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:06,200 micro business, a little business owned by a mom or pop 1259 01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:12,560 or individuals like myself or Kim is money that isn't going to 1260 01:34:12,560 --> 01:34:15,360 the big boys, at least not directly. 1261 01:34:15,760 --> 01:34:20,040 And so the more we can circulate within our own economy, the 1262 01:34:20,040 --> 01:34:26,280 better there is that. I also want to give a shout out 1263 01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:31,480 to my best friend in the whole wide world, Kirsten Soga, who is 1264 01:34:31,480 --> 01:34:35,080 an amazing chocolatier. And I happen to know she's been 1265 01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:37,680 making chocolate in the chocolate kitchen again. 1266 01:34:38,160 --> 01:34:42,240 And it is biodynamic, which is better than organic. 1267 01:34:42,760 --> 01:34:49,560 It is, Oh my God, her base cacao is beyond fair trade and it is 1268 01:34:49,640 --> 01:34:55,240 divine in and of its own right. I can eat it and I'm allergic to 1269 01:34:55,240 --> 01:35:01,120 chocolate so it is not processed in any way that gets me. 1270 01:35:01,120 --> 01:35:06,160 And it is so beautifully grown and it has its own many 1271 01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:08,480 different flavors depending on the otare it comes from. 1272 01:35:08,480 --> 01:35:15,520 But anyway, Kirsten is an outstanding chocolate lady, so I 1273 01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:17,640 will put her link in my show notes. 1274 01:35:17,640 --> 01:35:20,280 You can check her out. Kirsten's also running at the 1275 01:35:20,320 --> 01:35:23,080 mystery school meetings for me every single week. 1276 01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:26,160 She facilitates that coming together. 1277 01:35:26,160 --> 01:35:29,640 Anybody can facilitate the meetings, but Kirsten make sure 1278 01:35:29,640 --> 01:35:32,480 they happen. And I appreciate that. 1279 01:35:32,760 --> 01:35:35,800 So giving Kirsten a big shout out here. 1280 01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:37,480 We'll get her back on the podcast. 1281 01:35:37,480 --> 01:35:41,120 It's always meaningful conversation when we get a 1282 01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:44,760 chance to do that. Mystery School is getting some 1283 01:35:44,760 --> 01:35:48,160 special pods this month. I'm getting around to all the 1284 01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:51,480 stuff I've been wanting to do. What it mean. 1285 01:35:51,480 --> 01:35:55,080 Not enough time, but now that I'm getting a little more help 1286 01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:59,840 in the editing department, slowly but surely we're building 1287 01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:03,840 a really good team. Shout out to Alicia, my 1288 01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:09,760 assistant, for doing her damnedest to keep me in line. 1289 01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:11,920 And that's like herding squirrels. 1290 01:36:13,320 --> 01:36:16,760 And my daughter. As always, Sarah is is an 1291 01:36:17,040 --> 01:36:21,360 Immaculate partner in crime and you can check her out during our 1292 01:36:21,360 --> 01:36:23,680 Friday game nights. I know a lot of people don't 1293 01:36:23,680 --> 01:36:27,200 quite understand why we'd be role-playing, but I'm trying to 1294 01:36:27,200 --> 01:36:31,360 teach the power of turning your attention for a couple of hours 1295 01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:36,720 and doing something that seems meaningless, but it's fun. 1296 01:36:37,120 --> 01:36:42,200 There is power in that because it takes away the do or die, the 1297 01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:46,520 life or death and nature of the moment, so you can restore and 1298 01:36:46,600 --> 01:36:51,360 get back into the fray. We always sleep really good 1299 01:36:51,440 --> 01:36:54,760 after game night, and all of us have been finding that, so 1300 01:36:54,760 --> 01:37:00,560 that's super fun. What a ride, what a ride, what a 1301 01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:03,040 ride. I'll give you a sneak peek of 1302 01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:04,520 the article. I'm going to read the whole 1303 01:37:04,520 --> 01:37:09,240 thing because it's long, but I always read the articles all out 1304 01:37:09,240 --> 01:37:13,000 for a special patron only podcast for magazine subscribers 1305 01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:15,760 and above. But I want to read to you a 1306 01:37:16,200 --> 01:37:21,600 little bit about what I wrote about holding consciousness. 1307 01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:27,800 All right? One of the most important 1308 01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:33,200 lessons any metaphysical student can learn is how to hold their 1309 01:37:33,200 --> 01:37:37,720 consciousness steady. Think of the scene in Star Wars 1310 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:41,760 The Empire Strikes Back when Luke is in the swamp with Yoda. 1311 01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:46,520 Yoda is having Luke focus on levitating the fighter that has 1312 01:37:46,520 --> 01:37:49,760 sunk into the muck and Luke struggles to hold his 1313 01:37:49,760 --> 01:37:53,680 consciousness beyond the outcome and the fighter falls back and 1314 01:37:53,680 --> 01:37:55,920 sinks into the mud. Why? 1315 01:37:56,840 --> 01:38:00,040 Luke is trying to force the outcome. 1316 01:38:00,720 --> 01:38:04,760 It isn't until Luke can allow his focus to flow that the 1317 01:38:04,760 --> 01:38:07,560 fighter can be removed from the mucky swamp. 1318 01:38:08,960 --> 01:38:13,480 It's not mere fiction though. We don't often use our 1319 01:38:13,480 --> 01:38:16,840 consciousness to levitate items, and why would we? 1320 01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:20,200 A neat parlor trick, a way to show off. 1321 01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:24,640 We certainly can't manipulate physical objects until we can 1322 01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:27,960 focus our own consciousness on ourselves. 1323 01:38:28,440 --> 01:38:32,920 Without self mastery, actualization, and realization, 1324 01:38:33,280 --> 01:38:36,880 we are unable to manipulate the world around us. 1325 01:38:37,440 --> 01:38:42,120 But what does that? What does it mean to hold our 1326 01:38:42,120 --> 01:38:49,320 consciousness? To hold our mind steady, to be 1327 01:38:49,320 --> 01:38:53,840 unwavering, to allow ourselves the ability to be mentally and 1328 01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:57,600 emotionally supple in the face of a quick, chaotic outer world 1329 01:38:58,040 --> 01:39:01,680 grants us to be more. Grants us more than peace. 1330 01:39:02,040 --> 01:39:05,760 It grants US power. And much like Luke and Swamp, 1331 01:39:06,040 --> 01:39:08,760 holding our consciousness takes time and practice. 1332 01:39:09,200 --> 01:39:12,760 We won't automatically succeed. We will. 1333 01:39:12,920 --> 01:39:17,680 We will waver. Even Yoda wavered, it's just 1334 01:39:17,680 --> 01:39:21,600 that in comparison to a neophyte, his wavering was less 1335 01:39:21,600 --> 01:39:26,480 perceptible. We will never be 100% mindful at 1336 01:39:26,480 --> 01:39:29,400 all times. We will never achieve perfection 1337 01:39:29,400 --> 01:39:32,440 in our consciousness and that is not a flaw. 1338 01:39:32,480 --> 01:39:37,040 That is part of our design. To expect perfection or even a 1339 01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:40,720 modicum of mastery at the beginning of a learning process 1340 01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:44,640 is ego based. Holding ourselves to arbitrary 1341 01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:49,080 high standards is not only a form of self oppression, it's 1342 01:39:49,080 --> 01:39:53,640 egotistical and gives us the excuse to stop practicing. 1343 01:39:55,000 --> 01:39:59,200 An effective, effective practice for holding your consciousness 1344 01:39:59,200 --> 01:40:01,360 steady. Regardless of outer 1345 01:40:01,360 --> 01:40:05,360 circumstances is something I call hyper awareness. 1346 01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:08,400 It's something I developed during the last leg of my 1347 01:40:08,400 --> 01:40:13,120 healing journey from PTSD. Some people might call it CPTSD, 1348 01:40:13,480 --> 01:40:17,640 though the DSM 5 does not recognize CPTSD. 1349 01:40:18,240 --> 01:40:22,040 We often find ourselves hyper vigilant when life seems 1350 01:40:22,040 --> 01:40:26,040 chaotic, our brains producing the hormones that trigger fight 1351 01:40:26,040 --> 01:40:29,880 or flight reactions and leaving us at the mercy of that state of 1352 01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:33,600 consciousness. However, science has proven that 1353 01:40:33,600 --> 01:40:38,000 our brains are designed to do what we tell them to do, and we 1354 01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:41,680 are not at the mercy of our limbic system, even if it feels 1355 01:40:41,680 --> 01:40:45,040 like it. Full disclosure, it took weeks 1356 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:48,920 of practice before I noticed a measurable difference, and it 1357 01:40:48,920 --> 01:40:52,680 was several years of daily practice before I was more 1358 01:40:52,680 --> 01:40:56,360 responsive versus reactive on a day-to-day basis. 1359 01:40:56,960 --> 01:41:00,880 I also had the added benefit of weekly sessions with a PhD 1360 01:41:00,880 --> 01:41:04,600 psychologist, the late Doctor John Silva, who monitored my 1361 01:41:04,600 --> 01:41:07,080 progress and helped me measure results. 1362 01:41:07,560 --> 01:41:11,640 It helps to have a team and a judgement free support system. 1363 01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:15,840 That's my way of saying I'm not making any health claims. 1364 01:41:16,600 --> 01:41:22,120 Hyper awareness in the everyday. Hyper awareness is a concept of 1365 01:41:22,120 --> 01:41:26,200 flipping the switch on hyper vigilance or extreme stress. 1366 01:41:26,680 --> 01:41:30,520 A gentle way to begin this practice is to do the following 1367 01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:33,840 one. Narrate your actions to stay in 1368 01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:36,760 the present moment. Imagine you wake up in the 1369 01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:39,680 morning and instead of just rolling out of bed and 1370 01:41:39,680 --> 01:41:43,840 robotically stating starting your day like you always do, you 1371 01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:46,400 start by saying or thinking I am awake. 1372 01:41:47,040 --> 01:41:50,240 If you stretch before rolling out of bed, narrate that too. 1373 01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:52,880 I'm stretching my arms and I yawned. 1374 01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:55,160 Now I'm going to roll out of bed. 1375 01:41:55,320 --> 01:41:59,520 My feet are on the ground. It seems silly, yet this 1376 01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:03,560 deceptively simple practice is helpful to in grounding you to 1377 01:42:03,560 --> 01:42:07,120 your present moment. You can do this with any task 1378 01:42:07,120 --> 01:42:10,840 like washing dishes, driving your vehicle, doing computer 1379 01:42:10,840 --> 01:42:13,200 work. It's important to be descriptive 1380 01:42:13,200 --> 01:42:15,440 as well. My feet are on the floor. 1381 01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:17,920 The hardwood is cold against my toes. 1382 01:42:18,120 --> 01:42:23,600 I want to put socks on. Hyper awareness in the everyday 1383 01:42:23,600 --> 01:42:27,200 continued 2. Pay attention to your body 1384 01:42:27,200 --> 01:42:29,720 posture and correct it as often as necessary. 1385 01:42:30,240 --> 01:42:32,920 Our body responds to our thoughts and emotions. 1386 01:42:33,240 --> 01:42:36,840 Paying attention and correcting our posture and bodily reactions 1387 01:42:37,120 --> 01:42:39,560 helps us further release tension and stress. 1388 01:42:39,960 --> 01:42:43,280 You can lower cortisol and other stress hormones by changing and 1389 01:42:43,280 --> 01:42:45,320 holding a less defensive posture. 1390 01:42:45,920 --> 01:42:50,120 It might feel uncomfortable at 1st and vulnerable because we do 1391 01:42:50,120 --> 01:42:52,480 things to protect ourself unconsciously. 1392 01:42:52,920 --> 01:42:56,360 So try this alone at home rather than in public venues when 1393 01:42:56,360 --> 01:43:00,920 you're first starting, just to make it gentle and easier. 1394 01:43:01,840 --> 01:43:04,880 If you notice your hands are clenched, open your hands. 1395 01:43:05,480 --> 01:43:09,280 Taking a few deep inhales and exhaling slowly will help 1396 01:43:09,280 --> 01:43:12,040 release the tension. If you notice you're sitting 1397 01:43:12,040 --> 01:43:15,200 with your arms folded across your middle and you're hunched 1398 01:43:15,200 --> 01:43:19,200 over, sit up straight, stretch, and allow your arms to move to 1399 01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:22,360 your sides. We often hunch and clutch our 1400 01:43:22,360 --> 01:43:26,200 bodies to protect our vital organs when we feel a threat. 1401 01:43:26,600 --> 01:43:30,600 The goal of noticing and changing your body posture is to 1402 01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:34,960 help your body, mind, and self feel less threatened and secure. 1403 01:43:36,680 --> 01:43:41,280 And three, if you have thoughts on repeat, learn to pattern 1404 01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:44,640 interrupt. Intrusive and obsessive thinking 1405 01:43:44,720 --> 01:43:50,080 is a tough thing to shake, as easy as it it as it's easy to 1406 01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:53,440 get stuck in a loop when we're feeling overwhelmed and 1407 01:43:53,440 --> 01:43:57,560 hopeless. All right, if you want the rest 1408 01:43:57,560 --> 01:44:01,800 of the article with the rest of that exercise, you can check out 1409 01:44:01,800 --> 01:44:05,200 the magazine and the patron coming out this week. 1410 01:44:05,200 --> 01:44:08,440 I was hoping to have it out on Tuesday, but we'll see how that 1411 01:44:08,440 --> 01:44:12,400 goes as my writing schedule has been interrupted by life. 1412 01:44:12,400 --> 01:44:19,640 Because it's March, it's 2025. But again, you if you're a 1413 01:44:19,640 --> 01:44:22,880 magazine subscriber and you haven't seen your horoscopes and 1414 01:44:22,880 --> 01:44:26,080 the headlines in the sneak peek and edited hot off the presses 1415 01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:29,920 right after I wrote them, you can check those posts out in the 1416 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:35,320 Patreon posted them last week. So yay. 1417 01:44:36,640 --> 01:44:42,440 So friends, I know, I know things are uncertain and I know 1418 01:44:42,440 --> 01:44:47,040 there are people who claim to have special insight and they're 1419 01:44:47,040 --> 01:44:49,400 saying we're going to have a civil war and they're going to 1420 01:44:49,440 --> 01:44:51,760 saying we're going to have a nuclear war. 1421 01:44:51,760 --> 01:44:55,560 And I do not see global thermal nuclear war. 1422 01:44:56,520 --> 01:44:59,440 I do see the potential for tactical use of weapons. 1423 01:44:59,680 --> 01:45:04,120 Unfortunately, I don't think it's a guarantee or a certainty 1424 01:45:04,120 --> 01:45:06,160 it will happen, but I do see the potential. 1425 01:45:08,640 --> 01:45:13,960 I do see the potential for Europe taking action in defense 1426 01:45:13,960 --> 01:45:20,040 of Ukraine depends on what happens here and how we further 1427 01:45:20,040 --> 01:45:24,080 isolate ourselves in the United States and how things happen 1428 01:45:24,080 --> 01:45:29,720 here. But I am concerned about the DC 1429 01:45:29,720 --> 01:45:33,240 area as we move towards the end of April. 1430 01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:38,120 I think if you're going to protests that you need to be 1431 01:45:38,120 --> 01:45:43,040 very, very mindful of your surroundings and be very, very 1432 01:45:43,040 --> 01:45:48,680 prepared for pushback, especially if you're in the DC 1433 01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:54,640 area and, you know, wherever you live, you know, so far it's been 1434 01:45:54,680 --> 01:45:57,880 pretty good. But things could turn around 1435 01:45:57,880 --> 01:46:02,920 that full moon. So I think we're going to see 1436 01:46:02,920 --> 01:46:06,040 interesting events. I think we could see several 1437 01:46:06,040 --> 01:46:09,400 world leaders this month have health crises. 1438 01:46:09,440 --> 01:46:11,480 We could see people to be deposed. 1439 01:46:11,480 --> 01:46:13,720 We could see don't get your hopes up. 1440 01:46:13,720 --> 01:46:17,880 It may not be the ones we want, but it could be. 1441 01:46:18,320 --> 01:46:22,120 There could be some health crises going around. 1442 01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:26,880 Whether or not we hear about it or see it in the moment remains 1443 01:46:26,880 --> 01:46:31,920 to be seen. You have a lot more power then 1444 01:46:31,920 --> 01:46:34,920 you know, and that doesn't mean we can wave a magic wand and 1445 01:46:34,920 --> 01:46:40,960 suddenly make everything OK. But you can make what you can OK 1446 01:46:41,040 --> 01:46:43,680 in the moment, all right? And if it's your birthday month, 1447 01:46:43,680 --> 01:46:48,160 you can still have a good birthday, I said so OK, what's 1448 01:46:48,160 --> 01:46:55,280 going on outside of you and your immediate environment does not 1449 01:46:55,280 --> 01:46:57,920 mean you don't get to have a good birthday. 1450 01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:02,120 You can have a very good birthday even if the whole world 1451 01:47:02,600 --> 01:47:05,440 is having a crisis. And we've had multiple members 1452 01:47:05,440 --> 01:47:10,080 talk about how they've had personal good days in the middle 1453 01:47:10,080 --> 01:47:12,400 of the shit show, OK in the Patreon. 1454 01:47:12,400 --> 01:47:16,560 I just love the comments and the activity in the community that 1455 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:20,960 has built up in the awake space. It is like hearts joining 1456 01:47:20,960 --> 01:47:23,040 together. Like minds could be dangerous, 1457 01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:25,960 but like hearts grow beautiful gardens. 1458 01:47:27,160 --> 01:47:30,160 And Oh yeah, I thought I'd talk a little bit about gardening. 1459 01:47:30,640 --> 01:47:35,080 Why don't we do that to end the podcast and talk a little bit 1460 01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:40,960 about what you can do to grow a little bit of a little something 1461 01:47:40,960 --> 01:47:57,240 something on your own. So gardening and astrology, some 1462 01:47:57,240 --> 01:47:59,240 of the oldest subjects. I'm going to move the mic a 1463 01:47:59,240 --> 01:48:02,640 little closer. One of the oldest subjects when 1464 01:48:02,640 --> 01:48:07,960 it comes to astrology is horticulture, which gardening is 1465 01:48:07,960 --> 01:48:12,120 included in. The phases of the moon play a 1466 01:48:12,120 --> 01:48:14,960 large role in gardening. In fact, that's where people got 1467 01:48:14,960 --> 01:48:19,040 the idea for the manifestations. OK, which manifestation just 1468 01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:21,680 means to reveal. There's a whole process in that 1469 01:48:21,680 --> 01:48:24,760 where we're getting clear, we set intentions, we allow things 1470 01:48:24,760 --> 01:48:27,440 to maturate, and then we harvest or receive. 1471 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:34,040 And there's 8 phases. All right, but we'll, let's talk 1472 01:48:34,040 --> 01:48:36,800 about new and full moons. On new moons, we want to plant 1473 01:48:36,800 --> 01:48:39,400 our seeds. OK, This is a great time to 1474 01:48:39,400 --> 01:48:41,960 germinate. You can do it in the three days 1475 01:48:41,960 --> 01:48:46,000 of the phase. Full moons are not a great time 1476 01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:52,520 to plant. OK, now you could buy plants at 1477 01:48:52,520 --> 01:48:55,240 the nursery on a full moon. That would be fine. 1478 01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:59,000 In fact, if you're just getting started gardening, you might 1479 01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:03,400 just want to buy starts. OK, another thing about 1480 01:49:03,400 --> 01:49:05,800 gardening you want to know is you don't have to grow all your 1481 01:49:05,800 --> 01:49:07,680 food. You can just buy a couple 1482 01:49:07,680 --> 01:49:11,520 plants. You just get a tomato plant and 1483 01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:14,160 try it out. If you've never done it before, 1484 01:49:14,680 --> 01:49:18,880 you can get some green onion seeds and try those. 1485 01:49:19,440 --> 01:49:23,000 You know, you don't have to do a big garden, but growing some 1486 01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:30,640 easy things like lettuce, spinach, charred rocket or 1487 01:49:30,640 --> 01:49:37,800 arugula, very easy to grow. Yeah, there are times, and I'm 1488 01:49:37,800 --> 01:49:39,440 writing more about this. I'm putting in a little 1489 01:49:39,440 --> 01:49:42,760 gardening guide into the Awake space Astrology magazine. 1490 01:49:44,320 --> 01:49:48,520 There are times where certain signs work better with certain 1491 01:49:48,520 --> 01:49:55,840 kinds of fruit and vegetables. OK, so with the new moon being 1492 01:49:55,840 --> 01:49:59,440 in Aries this month and also being a total or not a total, 1493 01:49:59,440 --> 01:50:03,600 but a parcel solar eclipse, if it's not an eclipse where you 1494 01:50:03,600 --> 01:50:06,600 live, meaning if it's not visible where you live, you then 1495 01:50:06,600 --> 01:50:11,760 you start things. You can start seeds or you could 1496 01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:16,400 get things like tomatoes, Peppers, chilies, you know, bell 1497 01:50:16,400 --> 01:50:21,400 Peppers, chilies, anything in the Capsaicum family, radishes, 1498 01:50:25,040 --> 01:50:26,760 these these types of things, things have a little bit of 1499 01:50:26,760 --> 01:50:30,520 space or bite to them. With that new moon in Aries, 1500 01:50:30,520 --> 01:50:34,680 it's great time to get either starts and you could get any 1501 01:50:34,680 --> 01:50:39,200 kind of start or plant seeds for those kinds of things. 1502 01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:41,720 Try radishes. Those were pretty simple to 1503 01:50:41,720 --> 01:50:45,200 grow. Watercress would be another one. 1504 01:50:46,400 --> 01:50:52,040 So those are all things you can do full moons, not a great time 1505 01:50:52,040 --> 01:50:56,520 to plant seeds and start germination, but it's a great 1506 01:50:56,520 --> 01:50:59,440 time. You can go buy pull up plants at 1507 01:50:59,440 --> 01:51:02,360 a nursery or something or a garden center. 1508 01:51:04,400 --> 01:51:06,920 You know, again, if you're just getting started, I wouldn't 1509 01:51:06,920 --> 01:51:09,360 invest a ton of money. I would, I would start with 1510 01:51:09,360 --> 01:51:13,760 something you like to eat, OK, something you like to eat, 1511 01:51:13,760 --> 01:51:16,560 something be like, I'd be really proud of this if I grew this. 1512 01:51:16,560 --> 01:51:21,720 I I look forward to cooking it. OK, so you know, you don't have 1513 01:51:21,720 --> 01:51:24,880 to be like I have to survive and I'm going to build a survival 1514 01:51:24,880 --> 01:51:27,920 garden. If you're just getting started, 1515 01:51:27,920 --> 01:51:30,400 probably not the best idea. If you're an old hand at 1516 01:51:30,400 --> 01:51:34,080 gardening, you can improve your gardening by looking at the 1517 01:51:34,080 --> 01:51:36,640 times for planting. That's what the Farmer's Almanac 1518 01:51:36,640 --> 01:51:41,240 uses is it's basically Astro Astro meteorology and and 1519 01:51:41,240 --> 01:51:46,920 gardening astrology as well. So those are just a couple of 1520 01:51:46,920 --> 01:51:50,000 tips. This month is not a bad month to 1521 01:51:50,240 --> 01:51:52,400 get starts. It's not a bad month to plant 1522 01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:57,120 seeds, depending where you live. All righty. 1523 01:52:02,480 --> 01:52:10,400 So to end the podcast with something pleasant, something 1524 01:52:10,400 --> 01:52:22,480 hopeful, I thought we would talk about the upside of 2025. 1525 01:52:23,840 --> 01:52:26,080 It was going to be disruptive regardless. 1526 01:52:26,080 --> 01:52:27,960 And I kept saying that it wouldn't matter which 1527 01:52:27,960 --> 01:52:30,440 administration. We were looking at global 1528 01:52:30,680 --> 01:52:33,200 change. And we are change resistant 1529 01:52:33,200 --> 01:52:36,000 creatures. That usually takes a crisis for 1530 01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:39,880 humans to wake up, become aware. Because when we're comfortable, 1531 01:52:39,880 --> 01:52:41,560 there's no need to change, right? 1532 01:52:41,560 --> 01:52:45,680 If you're comfy and it's amazing at the amount of discomfort we 1533 01:52:45,680 --> 01:52:49,840 can be comfortable with, then there's no change. 1534 01:52:50,120 --> 01:52:55,120 Sometimes things have to be knocked about to make a 1535 01:52:55,120 --> 01:52:57,160 difference. And no, it didn't have to go 1536 01:52:57,160 --> 01:52:59,400 this way. There were other potentials and 1537 01:52:59,400 --> 01:53:02,880 possibilities, but it's a possibility that became the 1538 01:53:02,880 --> 01:53:07,120 probability that is the present. So we're going to live with 1539 01:53:07,120 --> 01:53:09,400 that. That's where we're at. 1540 01:53:10,760 --> 01:53:14,720 Magical thinking isn't going to suddenly shift us into a new 1541 01:53:14,840 --> 01:53:19,080 reality. What will help is collectively 1542 01:53:19,280 --> 01:53:21,840 shifting our attention on our awareness. 1543 01:53:21,880 --> 01:53:26,880 And March is a really good month to do that with Mercury 1544 01:53:26,880 --> 01:53:29,800 retrograde coming up. And we'll talk about that next 1545 01:53:29,800 --> 01:53:32,440 week more. And in the Awake Space Astrology 1546 01:53:32,440 --> 01:53:35,600 magazine, I've written a Mercury retrograde and a Venus 1547 01:53:35,600 --> 01:53:39,000 retrograde survival guide because they'll both be 1548 01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:42,920 retrograde this month. And that's not a bad thing, to 1549 01:53:42,920 --> 01:53:46,240 be honest. It's slowing the roll, OK? 1550 01:53:46,680 --> 01:53:53,160 There will be mishaps and strange happenings and things 1551 01:53:53,160 --> 01:53:56,280 that make you go, hmm, all through March. 1552 01:53:56,840 --> 01:54:00,120 And if you look at it from an outside perspective, instead of 1553 01:54:00,120 --> 01:54:05,360 being collectively embarrassed, which we can still be if we want 1554 01:54:05,360 --> 01:54:11,200 to go, ah, that's a good thing that's going to slow the roll. 1555 01:54:12,160 --> 01:54:17,080 That's a good thing that's causing pressure to be applied. 1556 01:54:17,760 --> 01:54:23,720 That might slow things down. That might cause a redirection 1557 01:54:23,960 --> 01:54:28,440 because because redirecting is easier than stopping something 1558 01:54:28,440 --> 01:54:31,800 that's in full momentum. And like I said about anything 1559 01:54:31,800 --> 01:54:35,200 started during the Mars retrograde period where people 1560 01:54:35,200 --> 01:54:39,720 were barreling forward is bound to not work out all the way for, 1561 01:54:39,720 --> 01:54:43,120 you know, at all. And in fact not Mercury. 1562 01:54:43,120 --> 01:54:46,600 But Mars is in its shadow phase. OK. 1563 01:54:46,600 --> 01:54:49,760 There is no pre shadow phase. It's a pre retrograde is the 1564 01:54:49,760 --> 01:54:53,800 technical term, but there is the shadow which is the post 1565 01:54:53,800 --> 01:54:57,720 retrograde phase where the planet is going to trace back 1566 01:54:57,720 --> 01:55:03,240 over the area it was retrograde. So Mars is in its shadow until 1567 01:55:03,240 --> 01:55:06,400 it gets back into Leo when it will be opposing Pluto and 1568 01:55:06,400 --> 01:55:08,880 that's at the end of April and that's when I expect some big 1569 01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:13,760 bada booms to happen. It doesn't mean it's going to be 1570 01:55:13,760 --> 01:55:17,160 civil war, the end of the world, but we probably will see some 1571 01:55:17,160 --> 01:55:21,280 kind of military action somewhere in the world. 1572 01:55:21,600 --> 01:55:23,760 Doesn't necessarily mean the United States. 1573 01:55:24,320 --> 01:55:30,920 OK, the best thing you can do is take it a week at a time to 1574 01:55:30,920 --> 01:55:34,800 suck. I am in the Patreon, and in 1575 01:55:35,560 --> 01:55:41,760 fact, let me end you with some comments from the poll I put out 1576 01:55:42,120 --> 01:55:49,240 on Sunday. I was very moved because I was 1577 01:55:49,240 --> 01:55:55,280 asking people what they wanted more of as we move through 2025 1578 01:55:55,840 --> 01:55:59,080 with a very cute little meme of a dog that says I'm curious. 1579 01:55:59,880 --> 01:56:04,480 So I asked people because I can come up with a million different 1580 01:56:04,480 --> 01:56:07,640 things, but I want to know what people want, you know, what do 1581 01:56:07,640 --> 01:56:09,480 you want more of? And I'll make it. 1582 01:56:10,280 --> 01:56:14,520 And so the options were I want more beginner level astrology. 1583 01:56:14,520 --> 01:56:16,880 I'm here for the horoscopes, I'm here for the discounts. 1584 01:56:16,880 --> 01:56:20,720 I want more about using the energy of these times. 1585 01:56:21,040 --> 01:56:25,160 I'm here for the chat and live streams and other please list in 1586 01:56:25,160 --> 01:56:30,680 the comments. There are so many comments, by 1587 01:56:30,680 --> 01:56:35,480 the way, the overwhelming majority of people that 56% of 1588 01:56:35,480 --> 01:56:39,560 respondents voted for. I want more about using the 1589 01:56:39,640 --> 01:56:47,960 energy of these times and we had a message from Andy from down 1590 01:56:47,960 --> 01:56:49,680 under. I'm really happy with what you 1591 01:56:49,680 --> 01:56:53,120 share as is. That being said, as a Libra Mars 1592 01:56:53,120 --> 01:56:55,800 and decision making for this one is hard. 1593 01:56:56,680 --> 01:57:00,960 I'd say energy work or transits if I had a gun to my head. 1594 01:57:01,360 --> 01:57:06,000 Jen with the black heart.
