00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,400
Hello and welcome to the Cosmic 
Nomad. 

2
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,040
I'm your host, Bailey Rushlow, 
and this is a space for the 

3
00:00:09,040 --> 00:00:12,920
curious and the heart lead where
we explore the human experience 

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,400
through travel, nature, 
spirituality, and real life 

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,800
transformation through beautiful
conversations. 

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:24,320
As I discover my way of living 
what I call an inspired life, I 

7
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,400
share the practices, stories and
perspectives that have helped 

8
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,560
guide me back to myself. 
Hello everyone. 

9
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,920
Welcome to today's episode of 
the Cosmic Nomad. 

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,520
So glad you're here. 
Happy Tuesday to you. 

11
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:42,560
And if you have ever wondered 
why these episodes come out on a

12
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,560
Tuesday, I'm going to tell you 
maybe you've never wondered that

13
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,720
in your life. 
But that's my intro to this 

14
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,600
episode because we are going on 
a little journey into something 

15
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,800
that we all experience, but we 
don't often stop to question 

16
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:02,480
which is time. 
We live in a world structured by

17
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:10,480
7 days named thousands of years 
ago, and each day and each 

18
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,160
energy of each day carries a 
very specific energy. 

19
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,440
There is the day of the Moon, 
Monday, the day of Mars, the day

20
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:24,080
of Venus and and so on. 
And we can trace this back often

21
00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:27,600
the time and the naming of time 
and the naming of days and 

22
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:32,280
months and all the stuff to the 
ancient Romans, which brought a 

23
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,680
lot of wonderful things into 
this world and also a lot of 

24
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,240
really not so great things. 
And you know, as as did many 

25
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:40,680
cultures around the world, 
right? 

26
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,200
We're not trying to hate on the 
Romans, but they were one of the

27
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:48,600
most influential civilizations 
that greatly impacted and 

28
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,480
continue to impact our lives 
today in the modern world. 

29
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,000
They did not come up with this 
whole system. 

30
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,880
Like they inherited the names 
that they called the days of the

31
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,400
week and all of that from older 
civilizations, the Greeks and 

32
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,320
the Babylonians that were sky 
watchers. 

33
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,480
They they mapped the heavens and
they were the first ones to ever

34
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,680
notice that there were well, I 
mean, as far as our modern day 

35
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,080
history three goes, which you 
know, is questionable, the 

36
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,360
validity of all of that. 
But according to that, the 

37
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,440
Babylonians are the first ones 
to really recognize the seven 

38
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:38,080
energy planets around our solar 
system and named each planet as 

39
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,800
if each one had its own 
archetype. 

40
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,800
And then the days of the week 
were named after those planets. 

41
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,520
And again, I don't align with 
everything from the Roman Empire

42
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,560
or the systems that it birthed. 
However, this is the structure 

43
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,240
we've inherited, right? 
It is, it is the one we are 

44
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:02,040
still living inside. 
And so the question becomes, how

45
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:07,080
do we move with awareness inside
a structure that we didn't 

46
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:12,640
create? 
Because time is. 

47
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,760
I have one of my good friends 
says that time is a soup time. 

48
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,400
Time is very layered. 
Time is not linear. 

49
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:26,400
Time holds stories and patterns 
and things that we've inherited 

50
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,200
without even realizing it. 
And when we remember how to move

51
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,800
differently and more 
intentionally and more 

52
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:39,280
creatively with time and more in
tune with the natural pulse that

53
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,640
is beneath it all, the natural 
pulse of the natural world that 

54
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,880
we are a part of, right? 
We're not separate, but we 

55
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,000
forget. 
We forget about that. 

56
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,720
But you know, we are a part of a
bigger whole. 

57
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,240
We can align our lives so 
interestingly. 

58
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,680
And in this episode, we're going
to explore the origins of the 

59
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,720
seven day week, where the names 
actually came from, and then how

60
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,480
the energy expresses itself 
through the day and how we can 

61
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,840
work with it as a collaboration.
Someone first introduced me to 

62
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:15,720
this idea a few years ago, and I
literally have it written down 

63
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,399
on a piece of paper in front of 
me that has been hanging on my 

64
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:23,840
wall since then. 
And I have Monday, Tuesday, 

65
00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:26,240
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, 
Saturday, Sunday written down. 

66
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,840
And then which planet aligns 
with that day? 

67
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:34,960
And then what is the energetic 
archetype of that day and the 

68
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:39,880
things that would be really good
for me to align my day with. 

69
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,360
The Romans didn't create the 
system, they inherited it, 

70
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,920
right? 
But the people they inherited it

71
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:58,520
from named the planets and the 
days of the week after them as a

72
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:03,160
form of connection. 
And the Romans took that system 

73
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:08,800
and they restructured it and 
they created empire it, Well, I 

74
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,160
mean, they created empire. 
Empire was created, but they, 

75
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,720
they ran with it, right? 
And it became very political 

76
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,720
time and weeks and months and 
seasons became shaped by 

77
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:28,000
taxation cycles and religion. 
Someone might wonder, like, OK, 

78
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,440
but by working with these 
planetary energies, isn't that 

79
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,800
just giving power back to the 
Roman Empire, right? 

80
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,600
Isn't that just being a part of 
this system that they created 

81
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,480
for control? 
And I think that it is about 

82
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:47,160
remembering that the sacred 
point of connection that was the

83
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:54,400
original blueprint for our 
cycles was never truly taken 

84
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:59,800
away completely. 
And the awareness itself of this

85
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:05,120
is like an act of reclamation. 
And this is the, the timeline 

86
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,920
that we've inherited, right? 
We are already living inside 

87
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,840
this calendar, but we're not 
necessarily moving through it 

88
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:19,800
consciously and with awareness. 
And so when I align the with the

89
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:28,240
energy of the day, I'm actually 
feeling into the ancient peoples

90
00:06:28,280 --> 00:06:35,480
who lived by the sky and the 
seasons and tuning into how to 

91
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:41,200
be awake inside of the system. 
And that is literally, I think, 

92
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,200
what all of us are going to have
to get really good at in the 

93
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,400
coming years. 
If you have not already been 

94
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,600
working on that in general with 
the spiritual awakening that is 

95
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,920
happening around the world, I'm 
sure you are, if you're 

96
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,520
listening to this, most likely 
you are awake inside the system 

97
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:04,720
to some capacity. 
And our job is to remember that 

98
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,800
we are free to move differently 
within the system. 

99
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,600
That even though we didn't 
choose it, even though we didn't

100
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,720
personally create it or curate 
it, yes, we may have inherited 

101
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,760
it and yes, we do have a part in
it. 

102
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:24,280
It's still really incredible 
that we can kind of remember the

103
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:32,320
origin and remember the the 
myths that our time and culture 

104
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,080
was literally founded upon. 
So that's part of my deep 

105
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:42,160
fascination with this and what I
started to notice as I began to 

106
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:48,480
align my week with the days of 
the week with different energies

107
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:53,600
of the different days, I started
to feel like things were flowing

108
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,160
with a lot more ease. 
And you would have to try this 

109
00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,800
for yourself, of course, to know
for certain how this works and 

110
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,280
if it works for you, if you feel
the difference. 

111
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,720
For me, I did and I do. 
And I don't live every single 

112
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,480
minute of every day by the 
energies of the week. 

113
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,640
I think it's very similar to my 
perspective on astrology. 

114
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:22,040
Like I honestly have found so 
much benefit to working with 

115
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,400
astrology in my life. 
And it it's a deeper 

116
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,240
relationship than just like, oh,
I'm a Capricorn. 

117
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:32,000
So I do XY and Z. 
Like that's not a right 

118
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,400
relationship with astrology in 
the way that it could be, in the

119
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,240
way that could be most 
beneficial to you. 

120
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:41,480
It is a way, it's not a wrong 
way, but it definitely could be 

121
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,080
deeper and more intentional, 
right? 

122
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,880
And when it is, what happens, we
have, we're way more aware. 

123
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,800
We move through the world with 
more ease. 

124
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,480
We're not out here worshipping 
the planets and worshipping the 

125
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,840
astrology signs and the 
constellations, but when we move

126
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:04,240
with awareness in relationship 
to them, we feel a huge 

127
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,920
difference and a huge shift in 
the way that we flow. 

128
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,920
This is a little bit of a long 
intro, but I just really wanted 

129
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,240
to give you all of the back 
story for all of the things. 

130
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:19,800
So moving into the first day of 
the week, we have Sunday. 

131
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,000
You might be like Bailey. 
No, Monday is the first day of 

132
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,040
the week. 
Actually, no, Sunday is Sunday, 

133
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:34,080
the day of the sun, the day of 
vitality, of preparation, of 

134
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,720
revitalization. 
It is the creative pulse. 

135
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:47,800
It is the life giver, right? 
And it's interesting how in our 

136
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:52,080
week today, it's the end of the 
week and it is usually a day 

137
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,480
we're really tired and we're not
looking forward to Monday, the 

138
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,000
next day when the week quote 
starts, right? 

139
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,960
And what if we could see it as 
the day that it actually is, the

140
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,120
first day of the week meant to 
begin in brightness, right? 

141
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,680
So how can we align with it? 
Maybe you create a morning 

142
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:15,080
ritual that is getting sunlight 
on your skin within the first 

143
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,600
hour of waking. 
That honestly should be an 

144
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,920
everyday thing if possible 
because it regulates your 

145
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,560
circadian rhythm and it boosts 
serotonin. 

146
00:10:23,560 --> 00:10:28,520
So obviously a great first thing
to do, but I could imagine that 

147
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:33,400
you spend time expressing 
yourself and your essence. 

148
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,680
Maybe this is having creative 
time scheduled creative time to 

149
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,400
sing, write, paint, plan, 
decorate, whatever that thing 

150
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,880
is. 
That is you expressing your 

151
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,840
essence in the same way that the
sun expresses their light, 

152
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,080
right? 
Maybe you spend time with people

153
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,600
that make you feel alive and 
vibrant. 

154
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,480
You could even wear the colors 
of the day. 

155
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,600
Maybe on this day you wear gold 
and orange and yellow warm 

156
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,800
colors. 
You eat citrusy foods and and 

157
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:14,760
grains and yellow and orange 
vegetables and taste honey, 

158
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,520
right? 
This is this is this is how we 

159
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,400
spend Sunday. 
We go and picnics under big 

160
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:27,240
trees in beautiful sunny parks. 
We swim and splash in water and 

161
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:32,360
in in lakes or pools or wherever
you're at if it is not sunny 

162
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,880
where you are. 
I remember living in a place 

163
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,560
during the winter that was very 
not sunny, and I got myself a 

164
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:44,600
little sunlight, and it was 
called a happy light. 

165
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,720
And it replicates sunlight in 
your eyes. 

166
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,080
And it's an incredible tool to 
fight a seasonal affective 

167
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:53,280
disorder. 
OK. 

168
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,800
And then a little lightning 
round here at the end, which is,

169
00:11:55,800 --> 00:12:00,160
if Sunday had a song, what would
it be? 

170
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:06,280
And the feeling that I had was 
walking on Sunshine by Katrina 

171
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,560
and the waves, of course. 
Here Comes the Sun by The 

172
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:14,840
Beatles and Don't Stop Me Now by
Queen moving along to Monday, 

173
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,400
the 2nd day of the week and the 
day of the moon, Monday, Moon 

174
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,680
day. 
The theme of the moon typically 

175
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,360
is intuition, emotion, 
reflection. 

176
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:35,280
The energy is inward and soft. 
It is a day to honor your 

177
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:42,160
emotions, to be mindful to eat 
food to and I I know that that 

178
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,880
sounds maybe funny to someone 
like be mindful to eat food, but

179
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:51,280
really nourish yourself. 
The moon also governs fluid, our

180
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:57,000
waters, our blood, hormones and 
your internal landscape. 

181
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,600
So this is the perfect day for a
check in attunement to yourself,

182
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,400
setting intentions for the week 
of what feels most aligned for 

183
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,320
you and nourishment, 
nourishment, nourishment, 

184
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,360
whatever that looks like for 
you. 

185
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,840
If it's home care, maybe it's 
washing your sheets. 

186
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,960
You know, on, on Monday, I wash 
my sheets. 

187
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,240
I, I cook soup, I reset my 
space. 

188
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,920
I take care of my plants. 
I eat warm foods like soup and 

189
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,720
broth or oatmeal. 
Or, you know, give yourself 

190
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:33,880
permission for gentleness, for 
hydration, for breathing, for 

191
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,320
stretching. 
You could ask yourself in a 

192
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,480
journal entry, how do I actually
feel today? 

193
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,920
And be actually honest with 
yourself. 

194
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,360
Maybe for colors, if you wanted 
to wear something to match the 

195
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:51,880
day, you could wear white or 
silver or light blue lightning. 

196
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,720
Round song of the day for Monday
is Moon River. 

197
00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:02,760
Audrey Hepburn, Clair de Lune by
Debussy and Holocene by 

198
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,680
Bonneville. 
The next day we flow into is 

199
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:15,440
today, Tuesday, the day of Mars.
Mars is the energy of courage 

200
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:20,400
and movement and action. 
It is the element of fire. 

201
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:28,280
It is doing and deciding and 
acting, which is why I decided 

202
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,800
to release my episodes for The 
Cosmic Nomad on Tuesday. 

203
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:39,160
That was planned by me based on 
the energy and the archetype of 

204
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:45,160
this day. 
It's the day for initiation, for

205
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:52,000
moving the energy, for knocking 
out tasks that you need to do, 

206
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,720
for taking initiative, for 
executing what needs to be done.

207
00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,800
And you know, this does not 
match Monday's energy at all. 

208
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,840
They are totally different. 
Monday was internal and quiet 

209
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,720
and nourishment, and today is 
like, let's go, let's do it 

210
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,080
right. 
If you have something that you 

211
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,680
really need to get done, today's
your day, babe. 

212
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,280
Today is the day the universe is
conspiring in your paper. 

213
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:27,400
That's the energy of Tuesday. 
That's the energy of Mars. 

214
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:33,240
So if you need to dance, sweat, 
move the energy out, do it. 

215
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,880
If you want to eat foods, eat 
spicy foods, maybe root 

216
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:41,880
vegetables, iron, rich greens. 
And if you want to wear colors 

217
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:46,240
that match it, maybe Mars 
colors, OK, red, rusty, deep 

218
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,840
brown. 
This is just a fun way to 

219
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,840
connect. 
You obviously don't have to wear

220
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,040
the colors. 
It's just fun, OK, And the music

221
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:59,760
Lightning Round for Mars Tuesday
is Eye of the Tiger by Survivor 

222
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,800
and also this. 
I know the lyrics don't really 

223
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,240
fit, but the vibe does carry on.
My wayward son by Kansas. 

224
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:07,960
All right. 
Wednesday. 

225
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:14,160
Wednesday is the day of Mercury.
Mercury's energy is all about 

226
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:20,400
communication, adaptability, 
play, curiosity, learning. 

227
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,040
It is the the energy of the 
mind. 

228
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:32,000
It is about ideas and truth and 
networking and brainstorming and

229
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:37,320
being mindful of your words. 
Wednesday is the perfect day for

230
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:42,240
writing, studying, connecting, 
expressing ideas, creating your 

231
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:47,640
podcast episode, writing 
captions, planning launches, 

232
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,280
maybe call a friend, 
collaborator, take a class, 

233
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:57,280
listen to a lecture. 
The colors of Mercury are yellow

234
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:02,320
and sky blue and light Gray. 
It's kind of a day where 

235
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,800
reflection and movement meet in 
the middle. 

236
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,000
It is kind of the middle of the 
week, right? 

237
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:13,079
So we've got a little bit of 
introspection going on and a 

238
00:17:13,079 --> 00:17:17,079
little bit of outward expansion.
And the song of the day for me 

239
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:22,079
is Golden Hour by Jake. 
All right, moving on to 

240
00:17:22,079 --> 00:17:26,800
Thursday. 
Thursday is the day of expansion

241
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,160
and abundance. 
It is Jupiter day, our largest 

242
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,520
planets outside of our Sun, of 
course, which is technically not

243
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:41,080
a planet but a star anyways. 
Thursday is Jupiter's day of 

244
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:47,320
growth, Optimism, gratitude, 
expanding your horizons, 

245
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:54,520
limitless shifting perspectives,
learning something new. 

246
00:17:55,240 --> 00:18:01,440
It is the day to zoom out and 
then reconnect to your purpose. 

247
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:08,080
The energy is out outward. 
It is giving and sharing and 

248
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:12,320
teaching. 
The colors are royal blue and 

249
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:17,160
Violet and indigo. 
Maybe you can support a friend's

250
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,800
business on this day. 
Maybe you just give out 

251
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:23,080
compliments freely. 
You remember that whatever 

252
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:28,600
leaves me will be replenished 
and replaced 10 times, right? 

253
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,480
It is gratitude mindset. 
It is abundance belief. 

254
00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:37,880
Maybe this is the day that you 
share things that you know you, 

255
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,600
you teach or you mentor. 
On this day, maybe you're able 

256
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:45,960
to donate with generosity to 
someone that needs it. 

257
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,800
Maybe you celebrate the the wins
in your life. 

258
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,560
I feel like this is a good day 
to eat food in community. 

259
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,440
Maybe you get people together 
and everyone cooks, you know, or

260
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,200
brings food. 
Maybe how a potluck, right? 

261
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:05,960
The song of the day for for me 
for in this energy is Unwritten 

262
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,960
by Natasha Bedingfield and Viva 
La Vida by Coldplay. 

263
00:19:11,120 --> 00:19:14,600
This is the expansion exuberant 
energy. 

264
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,720
Like I want to have that song 
blasting in a car while I drive 

265
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,600
down the road and give out food 
to people that haven't eaten. 

266
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:27,800
And I'm able to bless folks that
are in a difficult place in 

267
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,080
life. 
And I'm able to share my 

268
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,400
teachings and share the things 
that I've learned with others. 

269
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,680
And then I'm going to get people
together for a big amazing meal 

270
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,960
at the end. 
Like that is the the day of of 

271
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,840
Jupiter, right? 
That sounds very aligned and 

272
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,920
exciting. 
This leads us to our second to 

273
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:54,040
last day, Friday, the day of 
love, the day of Venus, the day 

274
00:19:54,040 --> 00:20:00,720
of art, sensuality, harmony. 
No drama on this day, the day of

275
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:06,240
connection and self love, 
treating yourself, food and 

276
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,040
pleasure and rest. 
It is again an inward, outward 

277
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:16,640
blend of relational and 
receptive giving, receiving. 

278
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:22,080
It is the day of letting 
pleasure be the medicine. 

279
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,240
So that could look like 
self-care. 

280
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,360
One of my friends says that 
every Friday she does an 

281
00:20:29,360 --> 00:20:32,680
everything shower. 
So she washes her hair, she 

282
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:37,880
shampoos, she conditions, she's 
exfoliates her body, she shaves,

283
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:43,560
she puts on oil, she puts her 
like a oil mask in her hair. 

284
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,600
She does a face mask, she does 
her nails right. 

285
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:52,680
She does all the things. 
This is a great day for tasting 

286
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:58,120
foods that you love, feeling the
textures, dancing slowly, 

287
00:20:58,360 --> 00:21:02,960
stretching, spending time with 
your friends or lovers or people

288
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,760
that you that feel good to be 
around. 

289
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:07,560
Maybe that's a friendship 
dinner. 

290
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,000
Maybe that's a cute date night. 
Maybe that's a date night with 

291
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,560
your friends. 
We should really romanticize 

292
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:18,200
that more dating your friends 
eating chocolate and berries and

293
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,280
figs and dates and sweet spices 
like cinnamon. 

294
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:30,840
I pictures wearing pink or 
green, like springtime green or 

295
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:37,960
maybe like copper bronzy tones. 
And it's also a good day to tidy

296
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,600
up or beautify your space. 
Maybe it's the day you buy 

297
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,200
yourself flowers. 
Lightning round music edition 

298
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,600
Friday. 
What song is it? 

299
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:51,600
La vie en rose Friday. 
I'm in love by the Cure. 

300
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,760
Just the two of us. 
Bill Withers and Saturday is 

301
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:01,520
contrary to how we typically 
experience it, of like a chilled

302
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,480
day, first day off work day to 
just like be and enjoy. 

303
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,080
It's the weekend, right? 
Maybe it's the day you're 

304
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,360
dealing with a hangover from the
day before. 

305
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:17,760
The energy of Saturn is 
structure and discipline and 

306
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,280
taking responsibility and being 
proactive. 

307
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:25,240
We talked about the Saturn 
Matern in our last episode which

308
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,560
I would recommend everyone to 
listen to because it literally 

309
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:32,680
effects everyone. 
Setting realistic goals, maybe 

310
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,800
meal prepping. 
Saturn teaches patience and 

311
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:43,600
maturity and sustainable growth.
So this is definitely a day to 

312
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,880
organize, clean, clear, 
declutter, plan, budget. 

313
00:22:50,360 --> 00:22:52,800
Reflect on also what you learned
this week. 

314
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:57,520
This is actually the last day of
this whole week, because Sunday 

315
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:02,440
is the first day, right? 
So ground your body in the earth

316
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,400
if you can, walking barefoot, 
rest, give yourself permission 

317
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,720
to stop striving and working and
hustling. 

318
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,000
It's like, no, this is the day 
for aligned action. 

319
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,120
So it's not a busy bustily day. 
It can be. 

320
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,280
There's no shame if it is like 
sometimes Saturday is the only 

321
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,240
day we have to, to get things 
done in our, in our schedules. 

322
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:25,040
And that's OK. 
But it's also a day of knowing 

323
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:30,480
how to honor your limits, you 
know, and integrating and 

324
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,880
preparing. 
It's, it's an inward energy more

325
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,120
than it is and an outward 
external energy. 

326
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:43,720
For me, the colors are like 
Forest Green, Navy foods, 

327
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:49,520
lentils, stews, root vegetables.
And I mentioned meal prepping. 

328
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,280
That can be a great thing to do 
today because it's action, but 

329
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:59,240
it's aligned in a specific and 
regimented kind of way that's 

330
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:05,160
perfect for Saturn's energy. 
If Saturn was a song, Saturn's 

331
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,080
energy, what would it be for 
this day? 

332
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,600
This is a tricky one for me. 
I had to think about this one. 

333
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,880
The first and kind of obvious 
choice is Sleeping At Last song 

334
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,200
Saturn. 
Another option is always a go to

335
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,920
for me, Slow dancing in a 
burning room. 

336
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,480
John Mayer. 
This is a little bit of a wild 

337
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:29,120
card, but Fire and Rain by James
Taylor and we have now completed

338
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,000
our week. 
We, we did it. 

339
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,600
That was it. 
That was a lot of information. 

340
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,360
I hope that you either took 
notes or are going to listen to 

341
00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:42,440
it again and take notes. 
Because what I would recommend 

342
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:47,360
to do now, now that you have the
information is to have it on my 

343
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:50,160
wall next to where I work. 
And I have Monday, Tuesday, 

344
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,800
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, 
Saturday, Sunday written down, 

345
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,920
then the name of the planet that
is connected to that day, and 

346
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:01,840
then a few of the energetics 
that I most connected with that 

347
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,480
are going to help me align with 
it deeper. 

348
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:10,200
I also want to remind you kind 
of as a bonus part of this 

349
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:15,280
episode is that the moon has her
own rhythm as well, which is a 

350
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:20,800
cycle of about 28 days, just 
like the body of a woman and the

351
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:25,920
new moon when there's literally 
no moon to be seen in the sky. 

352
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:30,080
This marks a time of stillness 
and reflection. 

353
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:34,400
And it's it's dark as if you're 
planting seeds in the darkness 

354
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:39,520
into the dark soil. 
It is turning inward and 

355
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,080
listening for what is about to 
begin. 

356
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:47,600
And two weeks later, the moon is
full, bright, illuminating 

357
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:53,160
expression release, and what was
planted begins to bloom. 

358
00:25:53,360 --> 00:25:57,160
So you you start noticing with 
these moons and where they land 

359
00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,640
on your calendar, which 
planetary day that they align 

360
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,040
with. 
You begin to see patterns. 

361
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,320
You begin to notice when you 
feel energized, when you need to

362
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,920
rest, when communication flows. 
Or maybe it's a bit foggy. 

363
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,160
It's the same rhythm that the 
farmers and the Mystics have 

364
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,480
followed for centuries. 
And if you are wondering, 

365
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,840
Bailey, this is awesome. 
But I work a traditional work 

366
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,080
schedule. 
How can I live by the planets 

367
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,520
when I actually have to get 
stuff done and I have alarms and

368
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,160
schedules and kids, You know, I 
get it. 

369
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,440
I get it. 
And this is not about escaping 

370
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,320
structure and being loosey 
goosey, right? 

371
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:48,080
It is about bringing more 
awareness into the structure 

372
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:53,520
that you already live within. 
So Monday still might mean I 

373
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,160
have meetings and I have things 
I have to get done, right? 

374
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:58,880
It's the beginning of the week 
that that's fine. 

375
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,560
That's totally OK. 
But can you approach it with the

376
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:07,280
softness of the moon's energy? 
Can you have a slower morning? 

377
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,640
Can you wake up a little earlier
and have a time to yourself to 

378
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,920
to read, to have a cup of 
coffee, a little gentler Self 

379
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,680
talk? 
Maybe Tuesday might be your day 

380
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,200
to tackle what has been waiting 
to be done. 

381
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,320
Make that your action day. 
That's the day of Mars, right? 

382
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,600
Friday, Venus day. 
Treat yourself with kindness. 

383
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,800
Wear something that makes you 
feel beautiful. 

384
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,040
Maybe you can light a candle at 
your desk. 

385
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,040
I don't know if you know candles
are allowed. 

386
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,360
Find small ways to romanticize 
the week. 

387
00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:46,320
There's a whole episode just 
about that that I've recorded 

388
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,840
prior, that I've previously 
recorded. 

389
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,960
So as you move through the 
coming week, I would love for 

390
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:58,320
you to just do an experiment. 
Experiment with noticing, notice

391
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:05,400
the the the moods around you. 
What does the day ask of you and

392
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,240
what does your body ask for? 
Because awareness is the bridge 

393
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,840
between the the cosmos and the 
human. 

394
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,920
When we are aware that this, 
this whole thing out here above 

395
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:23,040
us, this sky, this projection of
consciousness and stars and 

396
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,960
constellations and stories and 
mythos and origins, it's all a 

397
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:32,760
reflection of us and our belief 
and we are a reflection of it. 

398
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,680
It's all connected. 
It's not separated. 

399
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:41,360
So that's when even the work 
week can become a ritual. 

400
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:47,200
Even our, I mean literally guys,
we are here for 100 years maybe.

401
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:54,000
And I would love to have created
intention and flow and 

402
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,160
collaboration with the world 
around me by the time that 100 

403
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,280
years comes to a close if I get 
to live that long, right? 

404
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,560
So why not? 
You don't have to. 

405
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:10,440
There's no pressure. 
But I love the idea that we can 

406
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:15,160
collaborate with the time that 
we have here in this weird, 

407
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:20,120
weird world. 
And that maybe we can utilize 

408
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:24,920
this blueprint to not only live 
a more aligned life for ourself,

409
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:30,320
but also for the people around 
us in our lives that can benefit

410
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:35,640
from where we are shining and 
where we are able to as well 

411
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:41,720
help take care of our community 
in a more transformative way. 

412
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:48,440
And I don't know, I hope that 
this inspired you as much as it 

413
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,760
inspires me. 
And I would love to hear if any 

414
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:57,200
of you actually put some of this
to practice what you felt and 

415
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,760
how or if anything shifted for 
you. 

416
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,120
Thank you so much for taking the
time to listen. 

417
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,320
If you'd like to continue 
exploring these rhythms with me 

418
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:13,040
through the moon cycles and 
life, I would love for you to 

419
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,160
join me inside the Cosmic Nomad 
Collective. 

420
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,640
This is my private creative 
space online for guided 

421
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,600
meditations that I create every 
month. 

422
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,680
Gratitude practices, voice notes
just for you. 

423
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,080
It's a way to support this 
podcast and be a part of a 

424
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,640
community that makes it 
possible. 

425
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,480
You can find the link in the 
show notes. 

426
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,960
And thank you so much for 
listening, for being curious, 

427
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:43,400
and for remembering that even in
the busiest weeks, the cosmos is

428
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,440
still having a chance to shine 
through you. 

429
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:52,880
Until next time, open heart, 
open mind, and stay curious.
