Welcome to Empath Anonymous, a space for dreamers, healers, and feelers.
00:00:06.059 --> 00:00:11.009
Navigating the fine line between putting yourself first and holding space for others.
00:00:11.220 --> 00:00:16.620
If you struggle with balancing your needs while still supporting your tribe, then you're in the right place.
00:00:16.649 --> 00:00:18.300
Welcome to the support group.
00:00:21.277 --> 00:00:24.908
Hello and welcome back to Empaths Anonymous podcast.
00:00:24.908 --> 00:00:25.728
I'm Crystina.
00:00:25.748 --> 00:00:26.597
I'm Danie.
00:00:26.797 --> 00:00:36.957
And today we have my favorite mystical mentor friend, baddie.
00:00:37.552 --> 00:00:40.673
Insert all of the words there on our podcast.
00:00:40.902 --> 00:00:47.939
Madi Murphy, intuitive astrologer and the founder of Cosmic Rx Madi Murphy.
00:00:48.090 --> 00:00:50.460
But before we get into that, what's in your cup?
00:00:51.130 --> 00:00:54.700
I have basically finished my coffee and I made a mistake.
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:58.630
I'm not bringing down my water because now I am parched and I feel like I have a cotton mouth.
00:00:59.289 --> 00:01:01.929
Like the dryness of like the roof of your mouth and all that?
00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:02.530
Yeah.
00:01:02.534 --> 00:01:05.265
That's not very, what's in your cup of me forgetting my water.
00:01:05.385 --> 00:01:10.305
My emotional support water bottle is currently being deep cleaned and so that's the issue there.
00:01:10.635 --> 00:01:24.915
I shared with Christina earlier that emotionally I had a gut punch because where I work, we have a new administrator and that, a new administrator is very lovely and I think it's gonna be a great and necessary change.
00:01:25.275 --> 00:01:34.905
Um, but I got a welcome back to school email today in the morning and I was like, no, because I'm not quite ready for all of that.
00:01:34.965 --> 00:01:35.265
Right.
00:01:35.265 --> 00:01:38.564
Um, I appreciate like the gumption there and I appreciate like.
00:01:39.344 --> 00:01:44.295
Her being like, Hey, like we're gonna start fresh and like it's gonna be something different.
00:01:44.295 --> 00:01:47.325
And I think that it's necessary, but like, let's get on the same page.
00:01:47.655 --> 00:01:48.075
Yeah.
00:01:48.075 --> 00:01:51.765
And I love that very much, but at the same time I am like, no.
00:01:51.765 --> 00:01:54.525
It was just like a reminder that it's getting closer and closer.
00:01:54.555 --> 00:01:56.715
And as much as I love my job, like I do.
00:01:57.135 --> 00:01:58.454
Love summer break too.
00:01:58.635 --> 00:02:03.135
So that is really like kind of how my morning went.
00:02:03.135 --> 00:02:06.284
But overall I think I'm doing well.
00:02:06.284 --> 00:02:08.055
I think you know, I.
00:02:08.685 --> 00:02:16.724
I'm struggling a little bit in my motherhood journey, trying to figure out sometimes what is the right and wrong thing to do.
00:02:17.125 --> 00:02:25.914
So sometimes I feel like I can overcompensate and maybe not set boundaries that I need to set with my child who's very much in the mindset that she's gonna test those boundaries.
00:02:26.455 --> 00:02:28.044
She's in two different households.
00:02:28.044 --> 00:02:32.784
And so I think things are being done differently in both households as one would expect.
00:02:32.935 --> 00:02:48.365
And so just trying to come to terms with that and making time for myself to like actually dive into like parenting books which I have so many downloaded on my audible, and it's like, am I gonna start any.
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:49.669
Hopefully one day.
00:02:49.979 --> 00:02:52.650
But yeah, I think I'm, well you have 12 credits to use.
00:02:52.650 --> 00:02:53.250
I do.
00:02:53.250 --> 00:02:53.430
Yeah.
00:02:53.430 --> 00:03:01.169
Well, I used two of them for the, we were liars of it all, but girl, that's intensities, so we'll get into that later on.
00:03:01.169 --> 00:03:02.729
But What's in your cup, sister?
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:04.110
That's actually what I was gonna say.
00:03:04.169 --> 00:03:04.320
Oh, good.
00:03:05.139 --> 00:03:11.680
Is that my brain is, uh, consumed with that because we blind watched this.
00:03:11.710 --> 00:03:11.800
Mm-hmm.
00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:13.750
We were trying to watch something wholesome guys.
00:03:13.750 --> 00:03:21.435
We were trying to watch raising Helen, and we couldn't find it and like it's nowhere it was gonna be like we had to buy it and Danie's like, well, I already.
00:03:21.770 --> 00:03:23.840
Own it on DVD, like, why am I gonna buy it again?
00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:26.750
So we didn't, and she was like, fuck it, let's just start this show.
00:03:27.169 --> 00:03:29.210
And it's, we are liars.
00:03:29.210 --> 00:03:34.819
And it from the thing, like you can tell that there's something like mystery creepy dey about it.
00:03:34.819 --> 00:03:34.820
Yes.
00:03:34.825 --> 00:03:42.254
But you're not really sure what, what, but it, but it just looks like it's gonna be this like wholesome, cute teen romance.
00:03:42.405 --> 00:03:42.919
Teen romance.
00:03:43.544 --> 00:03:46.455
They live on like an island off of Nantucket.
00:03:46.455 --> 00:03:50.715
Like very, just like we're gonna watch some rich people get into some shit.
00:03:50.835 --> 00:03:51.014
Yeah.
00:03:51.014 --> 00:03:51.764
Is what I thought.
00:03:51.854 --> 00:03:52.365
Right.
00:03:52.474 --> 00:03:59.764
And I'm not gonna spoil it for anybody because episode eight just come correct.
00:03:59.914 --> 00:04:00.604
You know what I'm saying?
00:04:00.604 --> 00:04:04.384
Like do not be on the like verge of an emotional breakdown when you watch that show.
00:04:04.384 --> 00:04:06.425
Let me just put it that way so bad.
00:04:06.905 --> 00:04:07.865
It's really good though.
00:04:07.895 --> 00:04:09.460
I would venture to say fantastic show.
00:04:10.490 --> 00:04:18.120
Yeah, it's probably one of the best like teen or like young adult book to movie adaptations that I've seen.
00:04:18.149 --> 00:04:22.649
No book to show adaptations or just shows in general that I've seen in a very, very long time.
00:04:22.769 --> 00:04:25.199
Yeah, I appreciated very much the casting.
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.480
I think the casting was on point, so fantastic.
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:30.660
So that I did use two of my credits to then now listen to the audiobook.
00:04:30.660 --> 00:04:34.079
So we're gonna see if there's any like, fantastic differences.
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:38.250
I know that there, the details are some, yeah, they're just like, it's.
00:04:39.060 --> 00:04:42.329
It is kind of young adult teen romance.
00:04:42.675 --> 00:04:44.379
Mixed in with mystery, but with a choice.
00:04:44.379 --> 00:04:48.764
But it's also like this elitist supremacist, you know?
00:04:48.764 --> 00:04:51.735
It's just like a lot of moving parts and I really would recommend it.
00:04:51.735 --> 00:04:51.795
Yeah.
00:04:51.884 --> 00:04:54.314
To anyone, but just, it's not what you think it's gonna be.
00:04:54.314 --> 00:04:54.735
It's not.
00:04:54.764 --> 00:04:55.485
So give it a chance.
00:04:55.485 --> 00:04:57.615
Get through like the first two episodes, I think so.
00:04:57.704 --> 00:04:58.214
That's good advice.
00:04:58.214 --> 00:04:58.754
Yeah.
00:04:58.754 --> 00:04:58.755
Yeah.
00:04:58.755 --> 00:04:58.757
Yeah.
00:04:59.175 --> 00:05:03.735
I loved, and I clocked this very early on, just the color theory.
00:05:04.245 --> 00:05:06.045
And it, so like pay attention to that.
00:05:06.045 --> 00:05:07.545
I'm not gonna say what it all means.
00:05:07.545 --> 00:05:09.915
'cause I definitely was looking that up until one in the morning.
00:05:10.875 --> 00:05:19.095
But, and I honestly, if I had the mental capacity, I would love to do like a deep dive on it, on my business account.
00:05:19.095 --> 00:05:21.225
Like talking about like from a PR perspective.
00:05:21.285 --> 00:05:21.495
Ooh.
00:05:21.495 --> 00:05:26.865
Like what color psychology does for viewership or how it tells the story.
00:05:26.954 --> 00:05:27.225
Mm-hmm.
00:05:27.644 --> 00:05:37.845
Um,'cause that is something that when you go to school for PR or any kind of like integrated marketing communications as my major was they talk about color theory a lot.
00:05:37.845 --> 00:05:39.764
It's why certain brands have certain colors.
00:05:39.884 --> 00:05:41.355
Coca-Cola's red for a reason.
00:05:41.475 --> 00:05:41.805
Yeah.
00:05:41.834 --> 00:05:42.254
McDonald's.
00:05:42.855 --> 00:05:43.245
Right.
00:05:43.485 --> 00:05:44.204
Makes you hungry.
00:05:44.384 --> 00:05:44.774
Yes.
00:05:44.774 --> 00:05:47.954
So there was a lot of color theory going on there, which I think is so interesting.
00:05:48.014 --> 00:05:48.285
Yeah.
00:05:48.285 --> 00:05:55.904
But overall, even like in fantastic interior design, like it's very important'cause it evokes like feelings and emotions.
00:05:55.904 --> 00:05:59.865
Like when you see certain colors, that's why you wouldn't choose like certain colors for certain rooms.
00:05:59.865 --> 00:06:00.404
Right, right.
00:06:00.654 --> 00:06:00.834
Yeah.
00:06:01.014 --> 00:06:01.464
We love that.
00:06:01.464 --> 00:06:02.004
I digress.
00:06:02.064 --> 00:06:02.394
Yeah.
00:06:02.454 --> 00:06:04.165
We could talk about colors all the time.
00:06:04.644 --> 00:06:06.055
I literally, we talk about shows all the time.
00:06:06.055 --> 00:06:07.855
We could talk about which we will.
00:06:08.004 --> 00:06:08.274
Yeah.
00:06:08.355 --> 00:06:10.694
Find us on Empaths React, we're gonna react to some shows.
00:06:10.694 --> 00:06:14.745
So absolutely, we'll talk about that There some new ones and some old ones.
00:06:14.745 --> 00:06:19.605
There's lots of movies that Crystina hasn't seen and there's lots of shows that I haven't seen.
00:06:19.935 --> 00:06:21.884
We're like opposite in that way.
00:06:22.214 --> 00:06:22.574
Right?
00:06:22.785 --> 00:06:45.485
Well, here today what we are getting into though, bring it back around, around the towns we are talking about in the cosmic zone, embodying the 12 astro archetypes to unleash your genius and activate your authentic self with, as I said my mystical mentor and coach and big sis Madi Murphy.
00:06:46.175 --> 00:06:47.644
Congratulations, miss Madi.
00:06:47.935 --> 00:06:48.564
What a feat.
00:06:48.595 --> 00:06:51.384
This is her first book and.
00:06:52.194 --> 00:06:56.185
Has made her a published author and I think she's nourished it so much.
00:06:56.214 --> 00:07:12.055
And she has grown her community of cosmic baddies to the point where now she's including like real time, like testimonials in the book and like right, how basically aligning with your cosmic purpose is allowing you to live a more aligned life.
00:07:12.055 --> 00:07:14.964
And so we obviously get into that in the episode.
00:07:14.995 --> 00:07:17.245
Um, we chat with her call outs as well.
00:07:17.245 --> 00:07:18.444
We both flipped to our.
00:07:19.180 --> 00:07:20.949
Sun sign chapters, right?
00:07:20.949 --> 00:07:21.009
Yeah.
00:07:21.370 --> 00:07:31.089
Um, and we both were immediately called out, which I know I always wanna state when it comes to astrology, because I think that the greater popular culture just focuses on your sun sign.
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:31.209
Mm-hmm.
00:07:31.449 --> 00:07:36.339
But just as a reminder for people who maybe like beginners in astrology, you don't know a lot about astrology.
00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:38.165
You are every single.
00:07:38.665 --> 00:07:44.754
Yeah, so don't think that you're just your sun sign or just your big three, or even just your personal six.
00:07:44.964 --> 00:07:48.415
You are 12 signs, whether it's in your planets or in your houses.
00:07:48.415 --> 00:07:50.785
You have every single sign in your chart.
00:07:50.785 --> 00:07:50.875
Mm-hmm.
00:07:51.235 --> 00:07:53.125
And it shows up some way in your life in.
00:07:53.829 --> 00:07:54.970
Every single aspect.
00:07:54.970 --> 00:07:55.300
Right?
00:07:55.509 --> 00:08:01.569
So I think that's what I really appreciated about the book, is it's not just saying like, oh, this is your sign focus on this.
00:08:01.574 --> 00:08:01.745
Mm-hmm.
00:08:01.870 --> 00:08:07.629
It's saying these are the different archetypes for every single sign, and this is how you embody it.
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:09.620
So it can be applicable to anybody.
00:08:09.860 --> 00:08:10.279
Yeah.
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:12.110
There's the journal prompts.
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:25.269
There's stuff to fill out and so we get into it in the episode where it's like, if you feel like there's a sign that you either don't get along with, you don't, like Madi says in the episode, like, dive deeper into that because it could be a part of yourself that you're.
00:08:25.535 --> 00:08:28.954
Avoiding that you don't like or that you just don't know very well.
00:08:29.194 --> 00:08:29.345
Right.
00:08:29.345 --> 00:08:30.634
And I was like, that's a gut punch.
00:08:30.634 --> 00:08:31.564
Thanks so much.
00:08:31.625 --> 00:08:31.894
Right.
00:08:31.925 --> 00:08:39.245
Um,'cause I want to be able to dislike a sign if I want to, but that's not fair because it, like Christina's saying, they all exist in your chart.
00:08:39.427 --> 00:08:40.866
I just love the conversation.
00:08:41.246 --> 00:08:43.496
I enjoy Madi very much.
00:08:43.527 --> 00:08:51.057
If you are very new to astrology, I still consider myself very new to astrology.
00:08:51.057 --> 00:09:01.157
I mean, the practice is years and years and years of work, to be able to know as much as Madi does and become a coach, and become a teacher.
00:09:01.427 --> 00:09:04.131
Um, if you're confused, I would highly, highly, highly.
00:09:04.802 --> 00:09:07.022
Recommend booking a reading with her.
00:09:07.322 --> 00:09:08.942
It was fantastic.
00:09:08.942 --> 00:09:13.802
She records the whole thing because it's virtual and then she'll send it to you after to like dive deeper.
00:09:14.072 --> 00:09:19.682
'cause when I tell you I was scribbling notes as fast as I possibly freaking could when I had my reading, it was fantastic.
00:09:19.682 --> 00:09:19.741
Yeah.
00:09:19.741 --> 00:09:22.741
And it's like even just with that, it's like barely scratching the surface.
00:09:22.741 --> 00:09:23.642
So Right.
00:09:23.672 --> 00:09:31.261
Once you figure out more and how it makes sense to your life, it starts to be less woo woo and more just like pattern recognition.
00:09:31.292 --> 00:09:32.912
It lock unlocks everything.
00:09:32.971 --> 00:09:33.422
Yes, girl.
00:09:34.292 --> 00:09:35.912
Speaking of keys, you know what I'm saying?
00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:41.528
Her podcast has been my Monday ritual for probably like two years now.
00:09:41.828 --> 00:09:46.269
So all of the things, I'm so grateful mm-hmm.
00:09:46.719 --> 00:09:48.129
To have.
00:09:48.504 --> 00:09:51.264
Met her in this lifetime and her be in my orbit.
00:09:51.474 --> 00:09:53.183
She's currently one of my clients.
00:09:53.183 --> 00:09:58.764
I'm doing her book tour, which is, makes this even more exciting that we could have her on the podcast at this time.
00:09:58.764 --> 00:09:58.854
Mm-hmm.
00:09:59.368 --> 00:10:06.868
She's just a beautiful human and, uh, I hope that you guys really connect with her, follow her on socials or the book.
00:10:06.868 --> 00:10:08.937
We're going to put a link to do so.
00:10:09.118 --> 00:10:09.363
Mm-hmm.
00:10:09.363 --> 00:10:14.903
And what I love about hay House slash Penguin Random House is they give you many places to buy it.
00:10:14.932 --> 00:10:15.023
Mm-hmm.
00:10:15.263 --> 00:10:23.933
I feel like sometimes they just push Amazon and, uh, if you're on the same wave that we're on, uh, fuck Jeff Bezos so you can, I think they have Powells on there.
00:10:24.852 --> 00:10:31.273
They have Barnes and Noble, like they have like all these different places and you can even find them in certain local bookshops.
00:10:31.273 --> 00:10:31.363
Mm-hmm.
00:10:31.663 --> 00:10:36.072
And even like some metaphysical bookshops are gonna be carrying it, which is really exciting.
00:10:36.072 --> 00:10:36.673
I love that.
00:10:36.702 --> 00:10:37.033
Yeah.
00:10:37.062 --> 00:10:42.552
So you have options of where you want to spend your dollars, your 18.98, I believe it is.
00:10:42.982 --> 00:10:49.133
But yeah, thank you to Madi for taking the time to come and talk to us and just being such a light in our lives.
00:10:49.523 --> 00:10:52.283
And without further ado, let's get into it.
00:10:55.833 --> 00:11:03.970
today I am so excited about the guests that we're having on because she is a mentor, a big sis Madi Murphy.
00:11:03.970 --> 00:11:08.049
She has read both Danie and I's Charts in the past, so we're excited to get her on the pod.
00:11:08.539 --> 00:11:21.210
Madi Murphy is an intuitive astrologer, empowerment mentor, and the founder of CosmicRx, a spiritual wellness brand helping thousands of people align with their cosmic purpose and unapologetically own their magic.
00:11:21.629 --> 00:11:33.529
As the host of Cosmic RX Radio podcast, Madi offers weekly doses of spiritual self-care, astrological insights, and unapologetic pep talks, making healing, feel approachable, inclusive, and even fun.
00:11:34.070 --> 00:11:44.240
And as an author, she continues this mission with her upcoming book, in the Cosmic Zone, A practical, magical guide to awakening your inner wisdom and rewriting your story from the stars down.
00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:46.039
Welcome to the podcast, Madi.
00:11:46.129 --> 00:11:46.159
Okay.
00:11:47.096 --> 00:11:48.147
Oh, thank you.
00:11:48.147 --> 00:11:54.267
That just felt like such a beautiful, like hug and I am just so, so, so happy to be here.
00:11:54.267 --> 00:11:55.226
This is really special.
00:11:55.226 --> 00:12:02.187
I've, you know, been admiring your podcast magic for a while from afar, so this feels very momentous to be here.
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:03.379
Thank you.
00:12:03.379 --> 00:12:06.590
Yes, and I mean, you are in part somebody who inspired me to.
00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:19.309
Step, I was always kind of like in the background, you know, helping other people with their podcasts or in media radio and like, you kind of inspired me to be like, well, no, like this is part of your journey too.
00:12:19.309 --> 00:12:23.929
And just even looking at my char and looking at my Chiron and looking at my third house, I'm like, wow.
00:12:23.929 --> 00:12:26.029
Like this was something that was meant for me.
00:12:26.029 --> 00:12:27.440
It was just, I was too afraid.
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:31.970
So thank you because you really helped inspire me to do something like this.
00:12:33.187 --> 00:12:35.167
Aw, that's, that's what I love to do.
00:12:35.167 --> 00:12:36.787
That is the shit I live for.
00:12:36.787 --> 00:12:39.216
That is like, that is what gets me out of bed.
00:12:39.307 --> 00:12:41.197
And even the days when I'm like, I'm so tired.
00:12:41.855 --> 00:12:42.815
Yeah.
00:12:43.027 --> 00:12:44.256
that's the stuff that lights me up.
00:12:44.256 --> 00:12:44.886
That's awesome.
00:12:44.914 --> 00:12:45.365
Good.
00:12:45.394 --> 00:12:49.024
Yeah, we're definitely gonna get into some of the more nitty gritties.
00:12:49.054 --> 00:12:55.774
Um, but first we're gonna get back to our grounded selves and we ask all of our guests, what is in your cup today?
00:12:55.774 --> 00:12:56.615
What are you sipping on?
00:12:56.615 --> 00:12:58.804
And what is metaphorically in your cup of life?
00:12:59.826 --> 00:13:00.216
Mm.
00:13:00.667 --> 00:13:02.736
Yeah, the cup of life and metaphoric.
00:13:02.767 --> 00:13:03.787
Uh, literally.
00:13:03.787 --> 00:13:05.856
I'm always sipping on caffeine nowadays.
00:13:05.856 --> 00:13:06.397
I have two
00:13:06.419 --> 00:13:06.639
Um,
00:13:07.206 --> 00:13:09.937
you know, under 18 months old.
00:13:10.177 --> 00:13:11.466
I'm an earth sign.
00:13:11.466 --> 00:13:14.527
I feel like caffeine and coffee is like basically our lifeblood.
00:13:14.895 --> 00:13:15.375
Basically,
00:13:16.668 --> 00:13:20.028
I'm sipping on a little chaos, learning how to embrace it, learning how
00:13:20.056 --> 00:13:20.416
hmm.
00:13:20.807 --> 00:13:22.278
with like it being messy.
00:13:23.118 --> 00:13:27.725
then, it with a dash with a sprinkle of asking for help.
00:13:27.784 --> 00:13:36.184
Right before we got this podcast, I had to just like reach out to a friend and it's, you know, it's not in my nature of Virgo, my oldest daughter.
00:13:36.798 --> 00:13:37.548
Hmm.
00:13:37.745 --> 00:13:43.924
I, this morning I was like, I need some help today with something I'm working on, and I could do it my own, but it'll be so frustrating.
00:13:44.225 --> 00:13:50.434
So the balance of like letting things be chaotic, but also being like, you don't have to do this all alone.
00:13:51.109 --> 00:13:51.528
Mm-hmm.
00:13:52.533 --> 00:13:53.104
Yeah.
00:13:53.104 --> 00:13:53.823
You feel that deeply.
00:13:54.484 --> 00:13:55.833
We're both pretty guilty of that.
00:13:55.833 --> 00:13:58.653
Even been asking each other for help sometimes it's like, I don't wanna do that.
00:13:58.744 --> 00:13:59.464
Right?
00:13:59.645 --> 00:14:00.365
Right.
00:14:00.933 --> 00:14:01.083
Mm-hmm.
00:14:01.176 --> 00:14:01.385
that?
00:14:01.416 --> 00:14:06.311
Even like our partners, like people we have signed up to do things with, we're still like, I don't wanna bother you.
00:14:07.293 --> 00:14:08.673
Right, right.
00:14:08.673 --> 00:14:12.484
Even saying it feels like very foreign coming out of my mouth, like, I need hell,
00:14:13.701 --> 00:14:13.941
No,
00:14:14.104 --> 00:14:14.494
say it.
00:14:14.870 --> 00:14:16.071
no, I know, I know.
00:14:16.071 --> 00:14:20.211
That's why I feel like sometimes the universe will give me like breakdown, like breaking point moments.
00:14:20.211 --> 00:14:20.541
It's like,
00:14:20.729 --> 00:14:21.149
Mm-hmm.
00:14:21.681 --> 00:14:22.880
how many times we gotta teach you?
00:14:22.880 --> 00:14:25.971
Like, and then of course it's like, it's just more fun.
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:27.201
It's like collaborative.
00:14:27.201 --> 00:14:28.130
It's like it's something like it.
00:14:28.535 --> 00:14:32.826
Opens the energy up, like I'm holding onto it like a pressure cooker.
00:14:32.826 --> 00:14:39.875
And then I like invite in my friend or my sister or my husband and I'm like, oh, okay, now we're just in a cool, like in a hot tub.
00:14:39.875 --> 00:14:42.456
I was in like a little tea kettle before steaming, but now we
00:14:42.469 --> 00:14:42.619
Right,
00:14:42.785 --> 00:14:44.135
enjoy this flow together.
00:14:44.405 --> 00:14:48.605
And every time I'm like, why do you let it get to this point before you ask for help?
00:14:49.818 --> 00:14:50.058
right.
00:14:50.448 --> 00:14:54.769
Every single time I know it's like I'm over here like hanging on for dear life.
00:14:54.769 --> 00:14:57.168
I'm like, can I just like let go of the reins a little bit?
00:14:58.278 --> 00:14:59.629
Let the universe do its thing.
00:15:00.328 --> 00:15:05.369
But let's dive into our combo because we would love for our audience to get to know you a little bit more.
00:15:05.548 --> 00:15:17.849
So can you tell us more about just your journey to Cosmic Rx, the podcast, the book, and just how you started this community where you are empowering people to live their authentic selves?
00:15:18.975 --> 00:15:20.025
Okay, let's do it.
00:15:20.025 --> 00:15:24.495
And I'm a yapper, so I'm gonna like just try and keep this like cliff, cosmic cliff notes.
00:15:24.495 --> 00:15:24.706
But
00:15:24.928 --> 00:15:25.259
Yeah.
00:15:25.917 --> 00:15:31.496
You know, I think, you know, uh, with that being said, let's just start from day one of being a child.
00:15:31.496 --> 00:15:35.937
But this is the one quick thing I will say is that probably like a lot of people listening.
00:15:36.307 --> 00:15:37.956
I'm sure the two of you included.
00:15:38.256 --> 00:15:39.937
I was like that little girl.
00:15:39.937 --> 00:15:53.647
I was that little girl making the potions, you know, in the woods, talking to the moon, believing in magic, and even into the astrology or my aunt had the birthday book and I loved like crystals and building Little alters and all this stuff.
00:15:53.647 --> 00:15:59.616
You kinda intuitively um, and even well into like high school age, I, I resonated with that somewhere around college.
00:15:59.616 --> 00:16:00.886
I got it in my head.
00:16:00.886 --> 00:16:02.476
Take yourself seriously.
00:16:02.647 --> 00:16:04.716
No one's gonna take yourself seriously if you do that.
00:16:04.986 --> 00:16:11.354
And you need to go out there and you need to like be successful and get a job and, you know, I don't know, it's conditioning.
00:16:11.714 --> 00:16:20.211
And then of course, like many people maybe who might resonate with this in my late twenties, I just had a complete and utter like.
00:16:20.938 --> 00:16:22.349
tower card moment.
00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:26.269
I was set to be married and to a man who was lovely and, and very nice.
00:16:26.392 --> 00:16:30.981
I kinda have a friend from college I just, my whole body shut down.
00:16:31.011 --> 00:16:33.652
I like couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat everything.
00:16:33.652 --> 00:16:35.572
Like, felt so like, I felt so off.
00:16:35.572 --> 00:16:40.461
And up to that point, I definitely identified as a good girl, like, just like older sister, four girls.
00:16:41.216 --> 00:16:41.876
Good student.
00:16:41.876 --> 00:16:48.866
I mean, I wasn't good all the time, but my outward facing persona was very like, yes, she checks all the boxes, she just goes with the flow.
00:16:48.866 --> 00:16:50.517
Um, She like is on the life plan.
00:16:51.086 --> 00:17:01.870
And about two weeks before this huge wedding that we planned, I was just like, I can't do this and I'm gonna make everyone so upset with me, but like, I physically feel like I'm gonna die if I go through with this.
00:17:02.230 --> 00:17:05.141
And I remember just having this kind of.
00:17:05.516 --> 00:17:06.625
Big turning point moment.
00:17:06.705 --> 00:17:07.395
And I was like, you know what?
00:17:07.395 --> 00:17:08.026
I gotta do this.
00:17:08.030 --> 00:17:15.820
And luckily I had some good people in my ear, my sisters around me being like, go, this is when the real you begins, really like step into this.
00:17:16.101 --> 00:17:20.270
And of course now knowing astrology, it was a week before my Saturn return.
00:17:20.330 --> 00:17:20.691
So
00:17:20.963 --> 00:17:21.124
Oh
00:17:21.530 --> 00:17:26.361
isn't real, like when I look back on it years later, I was like, well, hot damn.
00:17:26.421 --> 00:17:27.381
I wish I had a.
00:17:27.770 --> 00:17:29.661
Little heads up that that was happening.
00:17:29.661 --> 00:17:33.171
Maybe I wouldn't have, it would've been a bit more context.
00:17:33.663 --> 00:17:34.203
Right.
00:17:34.730 --> 00:17:36.171
but thus began the journey.
00:17:36.171 --> 00:17:47.000
If anybody here's ever been through a big moment where life is like, it's like crashing out, or you're the one who presses, implode, you know, explode life button, you wake up and it's like shit.
00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:47.990
On paper.
00:17:47.990 --> 00:17:54.530
My life kind of sucks right now because everything was like, I had gotten rid of my apartment, my job, I was gonna move across the country with this man.
00:17:55.233 --> 00:17:55.564
Mm
00:17:55.730 --> 00:17:56.961
my parents are getting divorced.
00:17:56.961 --> 00:17:57.740
We sold my childhood
00:17:57.814 --> 00:17:58.233
oh.
00:17:58.431 --> 00:18:02.750
am standing there like one day to the next, a completely different person.
00:18:02.750 --> 00:18:09.411
All the things that I kind of either hid behind or identified with were just completely obliterated.
00:18:09.631 --> 00:18:11.010
But I also felt so free.
00:18:11.326 --> 00:18:14.026
And so clear like a weight was lifted.
00:18:14.205 --> 00:18:17.175
So I was like, this is something like what is this?
00:18:17.395 --> 00:18:22.346
And then that thus kind of began my journey back to like, what is my intuition?
00:18:22.346 --> 00:18:26.816
What does it mean to check in with myself versus like looking at what everyone's doing around me?
00:18:27.266 --> 00:18:28.435
What does it mean to like.
00:18:29.260 --> 00:18:41.951
Go from party Girl life who doesn't have one minute to think for herself or any, almost a fear of being alone and being by herself to just spending hours and days at and oh my gasp weekends by
00:18:42.354 --> 00:18:42.713
Right.
00:18:43.270 --> 00:18:46.211
or, or pulling tarot cards in Washington Square Park.
00:18:46.461 --> 00:18:47.871
'Cause that was the other thing that happened.
00:18:48.080 --> 00:18:49.161
I was like, you know what?
00:18:49.971 --> 00:18:52.221
I'm pretty much hitting rock bottom here.
00:18:52.221 --> 00:18:53.270
I have$0.
00:18:53.270 --> 00:18:54.141
I have nowhere to live.
00:18:54.141 --> 00:18:55.101
I have no job.
00:18:55.101 --> 00:19:00.260
Uh, all my friends that were friends with me and my, you know, fiance, they're all like, kind of gone and awkward.
00:19:00.260 --> 00:19:04.500
So, I guess I'll return to astrology and, and tarot, because why not?
00:19:04.500 --> 00:19:04.921
What else
00:19:04.969 --> 00:19:05.388
Mm-hmm.
00:19:05.401 --> 00:19:05.971
to lose?
00:19:05.971 --> 00:19:06.421
And
00:19:06.769 --> 00:19:06.888
Hmm.
00:19:06.901 --> 00:19:07.770
was a comfort in that.
00:19:08.441 --> 00:19:18.641
And I also had a really clear feeling of voice within me that was like, Madi, you just made a pretty bold public statement that like you won't settle for.
00:19:19.076 --> 00:19:22.826
Like something that's not in alignment, you are not gonna settle for inauthentic life.
00:19:23.036 --> 00:19:25.645
So now bitch, you better make that decision.
00:19:25.675 --> 00:19:27.026
You can't go back to like
00:19:27.578 --> 00:19:28.028
Hmm.
00:19:28.195 --> 00:19:30.955
You can't go back to like another crappy relationship.
00:19:30.955 --> 00:19:37.195
So I unintentionally gave myself this like huge level up, like a promotion from the universe.
00:19:37.195 --> 00:19:42.465
But I was like, uh, so then I really, started cultivating these tools, like I was so hungry for them and I needed them.
00:19:42.465 --> 00:19:53.955
And the only things that got me outta bed in the morning, whether it was like a yoga class again, like knowing I was gonna go to a moon circle in, you know, some really kooky new agey spot in like the West Village.
00:19:54.226 --> 00:19:57.046
And then flash forward like I just.
00:19:58.036 --> 00:20:08.165
it's like I really wanna help people like either weather kind of that moment I was in of just going through such a breakdown moment, but realizing it's actually like a breakthrough moment.
00:20:08.425 --> 00:20:18.596
Or what's crazy is like I've gone through moments like that again, that wasn't as extreme, but you know, when I started to start my first business, I had a similar, can I do this?
00:20:18.596 --> 00:20:19.346
Am I ready?
00:20:19.346 --> 00:20:20.155
Who am I to do this?
00:20:20.185 --> 00:20:21.236
Like write this feeling.
00:20:21.236 --> 00:20:22.915
And I had to go back to my tools, right?
00:20:22.915 --> 00:20:23.756
Same thing when.
00:20:24.205 --> 00:20:30.175
Publishing this book or becoming a mother, there's these moments that like these crossroads we come to time and time again.
00:20:30.625 --> 00:20:38.266
And these tools and specifically astrology has been such a lighthouse for me.
00:20:38.296 --> 00:20:43.625
Such a roadmap, such a validation and that like I like a planetary permission slip.
00:20:44.068 --> 00:20:44.489
Hmm.
00:20:45.080 --> 00:20:49.131
I was like, I want everyone, I want everyone to have access to this.
00:20:49.141 --> 00:20:52.141
If they're open to it, if they're like looking for something like this.
00:20:52.411 --> 00:20:56.280
And this will lead us into, you know, talking about other things, starting the business.
00:20:56.401 --> 00:21:02.911
But I was like, oh shoot, astrology, as I was trying to explain to people, especially me in Manhattan, people are looking at me like,
00:21:03.973 --> 00:21:04.574
Right?
00:21:04.634 --> 00:21:04.723
Mm-hmm.
00:21:04.963 --> 00:21:06.943
Like what is, this is wrong with this girl?
00:21:06.943 --> 00:21:08.894
Like she's like completely spiraling out.
00:21:09.195 --> 00:21:10.605
Jupiter.
00:21:10.695 --> 00:21:12.766
What's this broad talking about?
00:21:12.766 --> 00:21:13.996
Man, this is a Dwayne
00:21:14.253 --> 00:21:14.653
Yeah.
00:21:14.776 --> 00:21:15.135
what?
00:21:15.135 --> 00:21:16.576
What are you going on about?
00:21:16.576 --> 00:21:32.346
So thus began my Virgo journey of like, how do I make this accessible, digestible and just something that is approachable because it's such a powerful tool, but there is such a barrier to entry of it, I think.
00:21:33.394 --> 00:21:34.594
Yeah, yeah.
00:21:34.594 --> 00:21:37.564
I think that we, uh, definitely relate.
00:21:37.564 --> 00:21:39.124
I think that I had my.
00:21:39.739 --> 00:21:41.479
Kind of like crash out moment.
00:21:41.479 --> 00:21:50.009
I think like almost after my Saturn return my Saturn return was really just like discovering like, oh, like there's a reason why I've like always felt.
00:21:51.344 --> 00:21:56.683
Not right in this skin, in this life that I was conditioned to feel like I was supposed to live.
00:21:56.683 --> 00:21:57.044
Right.
00:21:57.284 --> 00:22:00.523
And so my Saturn return was like very magical.
00:22:00.523 --> 00:22:04.963
It was like coming out of it and like, kind of like you had said, making that choice of like, you know what?
00:22:05.294 --> 00:22:06.584
I'm gonna live a different life.
00:22:06.733 --> 00:22:11.804
That's when everything started to crumble because I was like, you know, you make a choice.
00:22:11.804 --> 00:22:18.044
And the universe is like, okay, well, if you want to level up, like you're gonna have to go through all the shit, like get through the muck first.
00:22:18.403 --> 00:22:26.324
To be able to get to a place where you're able to really live in alignment, you have to get all the shed, all the, the yuckies off first.
00:22:26.715 --> 00:22:33.766
Shed all the yuckies off or like, you know, if you think about aligning a bone, like okay, we're gonna to re-break that bone and
00:22:34.034 --> 00:22:35.023
Mm-hmm.
00:22:35.086 --> 00:22:35.895
we have to?
00:22:36.195 --> 00:22:36.375
And the
00:22:36.659 --> 00:22:37.058
Mm-hmm.
00:22:37.605 --> 00:22:38.625
hmm.
00:22:39.239 --> 00:22:39.528
Yeah.
00:22:40.538 --> 00:22:41.203
Yeah, yeah.
00:22:41.296 --> 00:22:43.125
the faint of heart this work, but
00:22:43.213 --> 00:22:43.753
Right.
00:22:44.056 --> 00:22:44.236
it
00:22:44.263 --> 00:22:45.134
I feel like mine was.
00:22:45.959 --> 00:22:48.628
Mine was pretty much in the middle of all of it.
00:22:48.778 --> 00:22:49.229
Yeah.
00:22:49.229 --> 00:22:52.439
I think I became pregnant at 28.
00:22:52.605 --> 00:22:52.826
Mm.
00:22:53.189 --> 00:23:04.739
I had my baby just before I turned 29, and then after that with all the postpartum stuff and just trying to figure out my life, I think that it was just kind of right smack dab in the middle.
00:23:04.739 --> 00:23:09.989
Like I think I turned 30 and I was like, I can't do it.
00:23:09.989 --> 00:23:11.564
It's just like you can't deny.
00:23:12.433 --> 00:23:17.834
What's happening in your body and like your, it start, your body's starting to tell you certain things.
00:23:17.894 --> 00:23:18.134
Mm.
00:23:18.163 --> 00:23:22.663
And so, yeah, I, and I didn't know a thing about like Saturn return.
00:23:22.663 --> 00:23:26.713
I didn't know that that's what, what, what happens, kind of like around that timeframe in your life.
00:23:26.834 --> 00:23:32.473
Until her and I kind of reconnected when we were back in the same state with one another in the same city.
00:23:32.753 --> 00:23:34.374
And she was like, oh yeah, that was your Saturn return.
00:23:34.374 --> 00:23:35.394
I'm like, my what?
00:23:36.401 --> 00:23:37.240
My what?
00:23:37.631 --> 00:23:37.931
So,
00:23:38.213 --> 00:23:38.423
Yeah.
00:23:38.693 --> 00:23:39.325
I was like, whatcha talking about?
00:23:39.520 --> 00:23:39.760
Up.
00:23:40.443 --> 00:23:40.733
Yeah.
00:23:41.169 --> 00:23:41.828
Right, right.
00:23:41.828 --> 00:23:43.388
Like, why are you just now telling me this?
00:23:43.443 --> 00:23:43.733
Yeah,
00:23:43.931 --> 00:23:46.901
it's only things that I would've been helpful to know yesterday.
00:23:48.009 --> 00:23:48.068
yeah.
00:23:48.368 --> 00:23:49.209
Exactly.
00:23:49.330 --> 00:23:51.520
I love what you say about the body that, it's so true though.
00:23:51.520 --> 00:23:52.961
It's like you can't deny it anymore.
00:23:52.961 --> 00:23:53.050
And
00:23:53.108 --> 00:23:53.558
Mm-hmm.
00:23:53.590 --> 00:23:58.871
Saturn return is, especially, you know, for women or people who really identify with feminine energy.
00:23:58.871 --> 00:24:07.240
I feel like it's easy to kind of like push things below the surface or say yes when you really mean no, or just kind of go along with something that's maybe not your.
00:24:08.336 --> 00:24:10.496
Super aligned, authentic self.
00:24:10.855 --> 00:24:18.205
And then something happens around the Saturn return where it's like everything, it's like you're holding everything below the surface and then like of a pool, right?
00:24:18.205 --> 00:24:18.385
Like I
00:24:18.699 --> 00:24:18.989
Yeah.
00:24:19.195 --> 00:24:21.086
beach balls below the pool surface,
00:24:21.148 --> 00:24:21.568
Mm-hmm.
00:24:21.655 --> 00:24:26.455
it's like and they all like just go everywhere and, and you can't, right?
00:24:26.455 --> 00:24:30.236
You can't live in that like denied deniability space anymore.
00:24:30.834 --> 00:24:31.284
Right.
00:24:31.463 --> 00:24:33.084
It just feels wrong.
00:24:33.084 --> 00:24:42.534
Like you're denying your conscience and your intuition and that's like one of the, I wouldn't say scariest place to be, but you're just so unconnected.
00:24:42.653 --> 00:24:43.314
Mm-hmm.
00:24:45.161 --> 00:24:57.010
Are you building a family or supporting someone who is want to feel empowered with knowledge about your health, especially during pregnancy and postpartum you found your community?
00:24:57.851 --> 00:25:00.040

00:26:18.325 --> 00:26:20.634
We wanna really get into the.
00:26:21.009 --> 00:26:21.700
To the things.
00:26:21.730 --> 00:26:27.970
So we wanna say, first of all, congratulations on the release, on the release of your new book in the Cosmic Zone.
00:26:28.269 --> 00:26:36.730
And um, we just wanted to say, we love how much you break each astrological archetype into what you call the universal keys.
00:26:36.730 --> 00:26:45.369
It makes it like what you're saying so digestible, so easy, especially for someone in my case, and I'm sure a lot of our, our Feelers that are more sort.
00:26:45.984 --> 00:26:49.644
More toward the beginning or intermediate understanding of astrology.
00:26:50.015 --> 00:26:54.125
So right when you first get into it, the first key is, why not me?
00:26:54.785 --> 00:27:03.035
And us having done this podcast for a year now, that's kind of the question that we go back and forth with all the time.
00:27:03.035 --> 00:27:12.039
And so we really wanted to know how does asking that question to ourselves shift our mindset around taking risks, our purpose, and our self worth?
00:27:14.082 --> 00:27:14.531
lovely.
00:27:14.531 --> 00:27:15.278
Um, You know, I.
00:27:16.659 --> 00:27:22.249
I'm just so excited especially to talk to people who are creatives who are doing something, taking some kind of risk.
00:27:22.249 --> 00:27:24.229
'cause I think they really feel this like in a
00:27:24.451 --> 00:27:24.872
Hmm.
00:27:25.038 --> 00:27:25.459
way.
00:27:25.778 --> 00:27:31.689
And whether it's starting a podcast, whether it's healing generational.
00:27:32.364 --> 00:27:39.594
Patterns, whether it's to fall in love or looking for love or, you know, whatever it is that your heart desires.
00:27:39.983 --> 00:28:00.767
There's something funny that we have inside our you know, more, call it like the monkey mind in us that I, I find everyone I've worked with, whether they're, you know, a Saturn return batty, or all the way up to like a Fortune 50, you know, CEO, is this voice that's like, oh, that, that's for everyone, but maybe not for me.
00:28:01.126 --> 00:28:01.457
Like,
00:28:01.819 --> 00:28:02.240
Mm-hmm.
00:28:02.356 --> 00:28:03.196
the one to do that.
00:28:03.196 --> 00:28:03.797
Why me?
00:28:03.826 --> 00:28:04.272
Right?
00:28:04.634 --> 00:28:06.075
and I think that.
00:28:07.041 --> 00:28:12.082
Asking ourselves and just putting that one extra syllable in of like, why not me?
00:28:12.412 --> 00:28:23.991
Someone's gotta make an awesome podcast for empaths and, and you know, who someone's gotta create the art that we're, you know, gonna inspire the next generation.
00:28:23.991 --> 00:28:26.721
Someone's gotta fall in love and, and make babies.
00:28:26.721 --> 00:28:30.211
Someone's gotta like, other people can do it, so why not me?
00:28:30.540 --> 00:28:34.951
And I think it's kind of also emblematic of one of my favorite.
00:28:36.286 --> 00:28:42.256
of astrology in terms of, you know, planetary poetry in motion.
00:28:42.675 --> 00:28:45.915
Each of our charts remind us that we're wholly unique.
00:28:45.915 --> 00:28:47.145
Like it's so unique.
00:28:47.145 --> 00:28:51.796
It's, it's such a beautiful like kaleidoscope of energy that is
00:28:51.943 --> 00:28:52.243
Hmm.
00:28:52.336 --> 00:28:54.135
like unique soul's finger.
00:28:55.230 --> 00:28:55.411
But
00:28:55.544 --> 00:28:55.874
Yeah.
00:28:56.371 --> 00:28:57.780
it's made up of the same ingredients.
00:28:57.810 --> 00:29:01.530
Everyone has the same zodiac signs, the same planets.
00:29:01.810 --> 00:29:04.840
And so it's also like we're all made up of the same stuff.
00:29:04.840 --> 00:29:09.641
So there's nothing that's something, you know, inherently better in someone else than us that
00:29:09.773 --> 00:29:09.993
Mm
00:29:10.060 --> 00:29:18.550
more worthy or more deserving, or more talented or whatever it is to receive and achieve whatever you want to in this life.
00:29:18.685 --> 00:29:22.705
So I love that and, and I also, you know, the book is essentially.
00:29:24.101 --> 00:29:35.201
My pep talk I got from the planets when I was studying astrology, either through my own guides, through books, through teachers, through readers and it's the information that I found myself like coaching people on over and over again.
00:29:35.590 --> 00:29:38.921
And there is something so blessedly beautiful.
00:29:39.715 --> 00:29:41.036
Beautifully activating.
00:29:41.816 --> 00:29:44.486
someone tells you, like when you say to yourself in the mirror, why not me?
00:29:45.026 --> 00:29:46.945
It's like, all right, let's go.
00:29:47.006 --> 00:29:47.365
Right?
00:29:47.365 --> 00:29:53.615
And it's just something that is, again, associated with the Aries archetype, the beginning of the zodiac wheel.
00:29:53.855 --> 00:30:04.566
We all have to get in a moment of hyping ourselves up and remembering like, we're here for a reason and we have everything that we need within us, but we have to be the one to take that first step.
00:30:04.566 --> 00:30:05.826
No one's gonna do it for us.
00:30:06.519 --> 00:30:07.209
Yeah, for sure.
00:30:07.729 --> 00:30:08.463
I think that.
00:30:08.973 --> 00:30:25.084
Kinda, when you talk about astrology being really popular right now on social media, in pop culture, I think that people think like, well, I'm just my sign, so I'm just gonna read like, what's for a Taurus rising or what's for a Sagittarius sun, and then I'm gonna go ignore everything else.
00:30:25.263 --> 00:30:32.301
But I think people do forget that like we are this incredible wheel of all of these different planets and all these different alignments.
00:30:33.301 --> 00:30:36.902
I kind of see it as like the spotlights are just in different places almost.
00:30:37.301 --> 00:30:45.711
So I, yeah, I really love, um, this idea of taking all of the archetypes and like anybody can really embody them in their own life.
00:30:46.041 --> 00:30:49.152
I think that for Aries it's just always, really interesting for me.
00:30:49.152 --> 00:30:52.061
'cause I think I messaged you a few months back and I'm like, what does it mean?
00:30:52.061 --> 00:30:59.682
Like, does it show up in your chart when you have like a, not like an issue where you don't like a certain sign, but you just you see them popping up and it just like gives you like this.
00:30:59.696 --> 00:30:59.757
Ugh.
00:31:00.477 --> 00:31:01.707
Like the ick, I'll just call it that.
00:31:01.707 --> 00:31:02.576
It gives you a little ick.
00:31:02.576 --> 00:31:03.027
Right?
00:31:03.207 --> 00:31:04.376
And for me, that's Aries.
00:31:04.376 --> 00:31:13.586
And so I, I've had to ask myself like, what kind of like triggers me or what's my, like stand in the mirror moment about Aries, like, what is it about them that kind of activates something in me.
00:31:13.826 --> 00:31:15.866
Can you like, speak to that a little bit?
00:31:15.866 --> 00:31:23.007
Like when you have something, a certain sign that you just feel like they keep popping up in your life and you feel like it's, there's a resistance to it.
00:31:23.969 --> 00:31:24.959
Oh, a hundred percent.
00:31:24.959 --> 00:31:32.183
Such a good question because I also do, I really hate like Zodiac sign bashing on the internet because I'm like, first of all.
00:31:33.213 --> 00:31:39.273
What, second of all, girlypop you have that in your chart somewhere, and I'm guessing it's going read you for filth.
00:31:39.273 --> 00:31:42.453
When I tell you what it is of like, why you have this, like,
00:31:43.136 --> 00:31:43.487
Right.
00:31:43.564 --> 00:31:46.354
be bashing the Scorpios, the Geminis, whatever,
00:31:46.386 --> 00:31:46.807
Mm-hmm.
00:31:46.834 --> 00:31:49.443
like something tells me you have a whole lot about going on.
00:31:49.630 --> 00:31:49.710
Hmm.
00:31:49.826 --> 00:31:53.977
you're just, you know, again, like you said, like really self-aware that.
00:31:54.711 --> 00:32:01.221
This like, sometimes rejection we feel can be a projection of something in us that is not, is unhealed.
00:32:01.251 --> 00:32:03.261
Or maybe we don't have permission to be that.
00:32:03.261 --> 00:32:11.632
So for you you know, I have your chart pulled up and so I'm gonna speak a little bit specifically, but I'll also zoom out so we can apply to anyone listening.
00:32:12.169 --> 00:32:16.068
Is your 12th house and your 12th house can be in astrology.
00:32:16.098 --> 00:32:34.828
We're getting a little nitty gritty here, but it can be like the house of our subconscious, the house of they call it our undoing because there's something there that can be, if we don't look at it, it can be where we self-sabotage or we limit ourselves, or there's kind of like karmic psychic gunk like clog in our pipe.
00:32:35.288 --> 00:32:38.318
Right, and, but it's, it's subconscious, it's unconscious.
00:32:38.618 --> 00:32:42.128
So you're like, well, how do I work on something that I don't know is an issue?
00:32:42.429 --> 00:32:44.048
And that's again why I love astrology.
00:32:44.048 --> 00:32:45.429
It starts to bring things out.
00:32:45.429 --> 00:32:47.019
It gives us language, right?
00:32:47.019 --> 00:32:51.669
When words heal, words build worlds, they can deconstruct worlds.
00:32:51.669 --> 00:32:52.689
We can understand, okay?
00:32:53.709 --> 00:32:54.308
Oh, okay.
00:32:54.308 --> 00:32:59.739
So there's something in me, in my subconscious nature that has some kind of issue with Aries.
00:32:59.739 --> 00:33:02.169
So then we can begin to look at, even like in this book.
00:33:02.249 --> 00:33:07.979
For every archetype, for every key, we talk about what it is, you know, why it's important, when to use it.
00:33:08.249 --> 00:33:13.138
I also talk about when to shelve it, which is my very gentle way of inviting people into shadow work.
00:33:13.138 --> 00:33:15.118
of like zodiac sign.
00:33:15.298 --> 00:33:16.979
It's an octave, it's a spectrum.
00:33:17.459 --> 00:33:23.098
There's the high frequency, the high consciousness, and there's always a low frequency and a lower consciousness.
00:33:23.368 --> 00:33:32.749
And we have to know within us of like, there's no bad sign, but there can be, misuse, or dare I say, abuse of that energy, and it can all come from the same place.
00:33:32.749 --> 00:33:42.949
Like I know my Virgo energy can be harmful to me when I'm being really critical of myself and others, but that same critical eye is what helps me improve things or edit things.
00:33:42.949 --> 00:33:43.249
Right.
00:33:43.249 --> 00:33:44.808
So back to Aries.
00:33:45.048 --> 00:33:48.108
For you, there could just be something there that you look at that you're like, oh.
00:33:49.294 --> 00:33:53.794
Subconsciously, maybe somewhere along the way, maybe I didn't feel that permission to be myself.
00:33:53.824 --> 00:33:54.153
And then when I
00:33:54.346 --> 00:33:54.856
Hmm.
00:33:55.084 --> 00:34:02.134
show up so boldly, so unapologetically to take things first to, to go for it, can feel like, oh, like how dare they do that?
00:34:02.193 --> 00:34:02.673
But it's because
00:34:02.926 --> 00:34:03.406
Yeah.
00:34:03.963 --> 00:34:05.374
you don't have that permission.
00:34:05.374 --> 00:34:10.563
So by looking at that, having that language, you say, okay, well then medicine that I have to take here is.
00:34:11.208 --> 00:34:18.679
Go read that first key and practice doing some of those things, even if it's un actually, especially if it's uncomfortable, I would say.
00:34:18.679 --> 00:34:19.128
Right.
00:34:19.286 --> 00:34:20.815
And that's why I love the archetype work.
00:34:20.815 --> 00:34:24.295
It's all in there, but some archetypes are dormant and we don't really
00:34:24.414 --> 00:34:24.833
Hmm.
00:34:25.166 --> 00:34:36.476
And then when we start to bring them out, and I call it like dress up for your soul, where you're like, maybe I'm not really feeling this Aries energy, but I'm gonna put on an Aries outfit for today and just go act like an Aries and see what happens.
00:34:36.715 --> 00:34:36.896
And
00:34:36.923 --> 00:34:37.344
Hmm.
00:34:37.505 --> 00:34:38.856
Oh shoot.
00:34:38.885 --> 00:34:39.606
Okay.
00:34:39.606 --> 00:34:43.496
Like I've been sleeping on this whole 1/12 part of me.
00:34:43.496 --> 00:34:43.996
That's really powerful
00:34:44.018 --> 00:34:44.369
Right,
00:34:45.126 --> 00:34:51.155
and then as we heal that within ourselves, we usually feel less projection on, on other people.
00:34:51.155 --> 00:34:55.596
And we also go through a level up of attracting maybe better areas in our lives too.
00:34:55.626 --> 00:34:55.865
So,
00:34:56.034 --> 00:34:56.364
right.
00:34:56.405 --> 00:34:56.916
make sense?
00:34:56.916 --> 00:34:57.126
Does that
00:34:57.443 --> 00:34:57.954
Yeah,
00:34:58.146 --> 00:34:58.326
a few
00:34:58.344 --> 00:34:58.824
yeah,
00:34:59.045 --> 00:34:59.556
with that.
00:34:59.603 --> 00:35:00.503
yeah, absolutely.
00:35:00.653 --> 00:35:01.974
You hit the nail on the head for me.
00:35:01.974 --> 00:35:07.914
Like Aries are just so like abrupt and so like, ah, in your face, and it's just kind of like offputting to me sometimes.
00:35:07.914 --> 00:35:12.143
I'm like, Ooh, can you just, like, my Taurus rising is like, can you just calm down?
00:35:12.186 --> 00:35:12.476
Yeah.
00:35:12.534 --> 00:35:13.103
You know?
00:35:14.123 --> 00:35:20.364
So it's definitely like it's something within me that like maybe I wasn't allowed to be.
00:35:20.768 --> 00:35:24.909
Loud and in charge, and I didn't let myself be in the spotlight.
00:35:24.909 --> 00:35:28.418
And so seeing people in that, I'm like, Ooh, that just feels like kind of uncomfortable for me.
00:35:28.423 --> 00:35:28.744
Mm-hmm.
00:35:29.396 --> 00:35:30.295
Exactly.
00:35:30.295 --> 00:35:31.016
Exactly,
00:35:31.208 --> 00:35:32.048
Mm-hmm.
00:35:32.126 --> 00:35:39.215
up Aries, because you know, I think Aries Energy, when I started my podcast, I had given it one go.
00:35:39.215 --> 00:35:40.615
And it was such a fumble.
00:35:40.615 --> 00:35:43.916
It was such a fail that I just like had to stop and put it down for a few months.
00:35:43.916 --> 00:35:45.146
I was like, that was so cringey.
00:35:45.175 --> 00:35:49.255
I, and then I kind of came back and I was like, what do I wanna share with people?
00:35:49.255 --> 00:35:58.735
And I came back to this kinda like the cosmic zone principles and I was like, let's start in Aries season because I have no Aries in my chart, minus my Black Moon Lilith,
00:35:59.039 --> 00:35:59.458
Mm-hmm.
00:35:59.545 --> 00:36:00.686
but it is my 10th house.
00:36:00.686 --> 00:36:02.036
So I was like, okay, I should start with my.
00:36:02.440 --> 00:36:04.990
If I'm gonna just been really public, I should start an Aries season.
00:36:05.050 --> 00:36:08.771
And also Aries season is the energy that I never felt comfortable with.
00:36:08.771 --> 00:36:12.791
I've never felt permission with, but I like love it and I admire it.
00:36:12.791 --> 00:36:13.271
It's like that
00:36:13.523 --> 00:36:13.733
Hmm.
00:36:13.840 --> 00:36:17.471
of yours who're like, I just feel awesome that like I get to be around you,
00:36:17.724 --> 00:36:18.293
Right?
00:36:18.298 --> 00:36:18.358
Mm-hmm.
00:36:18.460 --> 00:36:18.911
you.
00:36:18.911 --> 00:36:19.271
And like
00:36:19.398 --> 00:36:19.688
Yeah.
00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:25.101
sister's in Aries, my whole life when I'm feeling a little bit insecure, I'm like, what would my sister Gabby do right now?
00:36:25.161 --> 00:36:25.539
How Hmm.
00:36:25.670 --> 00:36:26.181
Say this?
00:36:26.530 --> 00:36:27.070
it's so funny.
00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:31.751
I feel like this book is, is a love letter to all the signs, but especially for Aries.
00:36:31.751 --> 00:36:37.451
'cause like without Aries I wouldn't be here'cause I had to hype myself up and really like fake it.
00:36:37.451 --> 00:36:39.880
til you make it and like act like a bad bitch.
00:36:39.880 --> 00:36:42.251
Before I really felt like one to get all this going.
00:36:43.048 --> 00:36:43.418
Yeah.
00:36:43.684 --> 00:36:43.764
Hmm.
00:36:43.885 --> 00:36:44.005
I,
00:36:44.873 --> 00:36:45.623
Definitely.
00:36:45.684 --> 00:36:54.893
So maybe I'll, I'll channel that more and I just invite anyone listening to really look at, you know, maybe a sign that you just have a harder time getting along with a harder time.
00:36:54.893 --> 00:36:57.804
Maybe even just understanding how they move through life.
00:36:58.043 --> 00:37:01.853
Maybe like Madi said, go through the book and you can pre-order it.
00:37:02.003 --> 00:37:02.753
It's coming out.
00:37:02.918 --> 00:37:04.898
Well, when you're listening to this, it will be out.
00:37:04.958 --> 00:37:05.168
Yes.
00:37:05.168 --> 00:37:06.878
So you can go and buy Madi's book.
00:37:07.128 --> 00:37:20.628
But go through some of the exercises and do some self-reflection and think, you know, instead of looking at this person as we're so different, or I just don't get them, maybe tapping into like, well, what is a part of myself that I'm ignoring?
00:37:20.628 --> 00:37:20.688
So.
00:37:21.463 --> 00:37:22.094
I love that.
00:37:22.523 --> 00:37:29.963
We're gonna switch gears a little bit into something that, uh, we're both really excited to talk about and it's just so timely, uh, for what's happening right now.
00:37:30.353 --> 00:37:37.704
In the week that we're recording this, you guys, not when you're hearing it, but when we're recording it, there's a lot going on in the world.
00:37:37.704 --> 00:37:43.974
There's a lot going on in Iran, and so I think that it's really important to talk about.
00:37:44.563 --> 00:37:51.324
Social change and how we can really embody our, rebellious nature.
00:37:51.324 --> 00:37:52.914
Our, like you said, the artists.
00:37:52.914 --> 00:37:57.114
What, what do we have to share with the world that's really going to like lead the revolution?
00:37:57.483 --> 00:38:02.074
So you say that self liberation is a prerequisite for a collective liberation.
00:38:02.313 --> 00:38:05.583
How do you see authenticity as an act of service?
00:38:06.981 --> 00:38:11.570
Oh, I just had chills when you're talking because I'm like, this is it.
00:38:11.570 --> 00:38:11.811
Right?
00:38:11.811 --> 00:38:12.650
This is the moment.
00:38:12.650 --> 00:38:13.791
This is not conceptual.
00:38:13.791 --> 00:38:14.871
This is not theoretical.
00:38:14.871 --> 00:38:19.675
I think everyone on this planet right now could understand like things are changing.
00:38:19.701 --> 00:38:21.920
We are in some kind of revolutionary time.
00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:30.150
And because I had the beautiful foresight of astrology I kind of saw a few years ago that I was like, oh shit, we're going into like a whole new world.
00:38:30.150 --> 00:38:39.811
We're everything that we've relied on, everything that we've used to define ourselves, every cutter path that was, we were told and sold that it was safe.
00:38:39.811 --> 00:38:42.751
And, and you know, this is the way to do it, is all gonna disappear.
00:38:43.501 --> 00:38:44.760
So where does that leave us?
00:38:44.791 --> 00:38:45.181
Right?
00:38:45.181 --> 00:38:45.420
And in
00:38:45.608 --> 00:38:45.998
Hmm.
00:38:46.320 --> 00:38:46.981
Me in some ways.
00:38:46.981 --> 00:38:48.150
It, it excited me.
00:38:49.351 --> 00:38:50.190
And I was like, there's no map.
00:38:50.221 --> 00:38:50.731
There's no map.
00:38:50.731 --> 00:38:51.331
What's the map?
00:38:51.331 --> 00:38:51.931
What's the map?
00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:54.840
And I was like, oh, the map is within ourselves.
00:38:55.231 --> 00:39:12.601
Because if there's one thing that, you know, the systems, the oppressive systems of power, whether they're, you know, extractive capitalism, whether it's patriarchal, whether it's racist, whether it's, you know, colonial powers that be, they really benefit on
00:39:13.231 --> 00:39:13.780
people
00:39:13.851 --> 00:39:15.161
us just falling in line.
00:39:15.496 --> 00:39:29.266
Like falling in line, doing as we're told, not feeling the courage to speak up, and also not realizing that we all have more in common with each other than the people who, you know, want to hold power over us.
00:39:29.509 --> 00:39:29.728
Mm.
00:39:29.806 --> 00:39:30.615
so I'm like, oh, okay.
00:39:30.615 --> 00:39:31.425
That's kind of interesting.
00:39:31.425 --> 00:39:32.266
That's kind of interesting.
00:39:32.505 --> 00:39:37.096
So I'm like, well, how do we, you know, what does that look like for each and every one of us
00:39:37.268 --> 00:39:37.688
Mm-hmm.
00:39:38.789 --> 00:39:39.898
really do this in an embodied way?
00:39:39.958 --> 00:39:42.989
'cause my whole thing again as a Virgo is I'm like, where does this mean real talk?
00:39:43.692 --> 00:39:44.172
Yeah.
00:39:44.248 --> 00:39:45.898
the Instagram quotes off of
00:39:45.927 --> 00:39:46.347
Mm-hmm.
00:39:46.528 --> 00:39:49.018
you know, substack, like the where, oh, like
00:39:49.166 --> 00:39:49.516
Right.
00:39:49.858 --> 00:39:50.668
things are happening.
00:39:50.668 --> 00:39:50.998
I'm like, no.
00:39:51.028 --> 00:39:51.268
Okay.
00:39:51.268 --> 00:39:59.054
So I'm like, if you can learn to heal yourself, you're going to usually.
00:40:00.284 --> 00:40:03.764
Most of the time want to help other people heal themselves.
00:40:03.947 --> 00:40:04.027
Hmm.
00:40:04.123 --> 00:40:08.744
If you have permission to live in your joy, then why wouldn't you want someone else to live in their joy?
00:40:09.074 --> 00:40:17.954
If you, you a deep, beautiful, and sacred relationship with the earth, with your body, with your community, why wouldn't you want other people too?
00:40:17.983 --> 00:40:18.373
Right?
00:40:18.373 --> 00:40:23.054
It's like heal people, heal people, like liberated people, liberate people.
00:40:24.059 --> 00:40:31.648
one of the reasons that I feel like a lot of us don't feel liberated or don't feel healed or don't feel joyful is that we don't either know our authentic selves.
00:40:31.829 --> 00:40:34.378
We don't feel like we have permission to be in that.
00:40:34.688 --> 00:40:36.128
It doesn't feel safe to do that.
00:40:36.409 --> 00:40:41.478
Or we're chasing something from the outside world that we're never gonna get that's gonna like, fill a hole.
00:40:41.478 --> 00:40:43.878
So I'm like, let's come back to ourselves first and foremost.
00:40:43.878 --> 00:40:44.239
Right?
00:40:44.628 --> 00:40:48.228
And then let's learn about like trusting, you know?
00:40:48.289 --> 00:40:51.349
'cause our intuition, our intuition is never gonna tell us.
00:40:52.878 --> 00:40:54.469
To like harm someone
00:40:55.126 --> 00:40:55.847
Right, right.
00:40:56.327 --> 00:40:56.806
Yeah.
00:40:56.869 --> 00:40:58.878
like that's all fear.
00:40:58.878 --> 00:41:00.259
That's so many other things.
00:41:00.318 --> 00:41:19.849
And our intuition, you know, right now, at the time of recording this, we're in Cancer season and the Cancer part of all of our charts is an intuitive knowing that we're all family, that we're all here to take care of each other, that we're all here to like, you know, kind of be in this chosen divine cosmic family and that when one of us is hurting, all of us are hurting.
00:41:20.148 --> 00:41:22.338
But it's the other things, it's the old programming.
00:41:22.338 --> 00:41:25.429
It's the like us versus you mentality.
00:41:25.429 --> 00:41:29.628
It's the indi toxic individualism that like casts us away from that.
00:41:29.628 --> 00:41:36.949
So I'm like, well, if it's right there in our birth chart to come back to that, well, like, let's all look at the Cancer part of our chart and figure out what's going on there.
00:41:36.978 --> 00:41:37.369
Right.
00:41:37.398 --> 00:41:38.329
Or our fourth house.
00:41:38.659 --> 00:41:39.768
So there's that.
00:41:39.818 --> 00:41:40.869
There's authenticity.
00:41:41.574 --> 00:41:42.954
There's learning how to feel safe.
00:41:43.313 --> 00:41:46.434
And then on the other side, there's learning how to feel free.
00:41:46.987 --> 00:41:48.126
safety and freedom.
00:41:48.186 --> 00:41:59.916
Uh, my dear friend Colin, who is a beautiful astrologer, he talks a lot about like, the role of the astrologer is offering safety and freedom, and it's like safety to be yourself, but then freedom to.
00:42:00.246 --> 00:42:09.306
Express freedom to stand up for yourself, freedom to stand up for others, freedom to make the art that is going to change our society.
00:42:09.306 --> 00:42:17.086
Whether that's actual art, whether you're you know, a, a storyteller and you make documentaries or you, you know, make music that that changes the way we think.
00:42:17.327 --> 00:42:24.436
Or if you're art is in how you parent or if your art is in how you teach people how to garden for themselves.
00:42:24.436 --> 00:42:27.016
Like we all have something to offer.
00:42:27.827 --> 00:42:33.197
And this new collective wisdom, because we're re-imagining a world from scratch.
00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:35.190
Yeah.
00:42:35.195 --> 00:42:35.364
Mm-hmm.
00:42:35.536 --> 00:42:39.617
of the stuff that we've been intaking up to this point was not made from the best intentions.
00:42:39.646 --> 00:42:50.507
So, like I, I really believe that everyone has a role in this revolution and everyone has a unique thread to like, weave into this tapestry, it's just not gonna come from the outside world.
00:42:51.677 --> 00:42:52.077
1, 2,
00:42:52.230 --> 00:42:52.590
Yeah.
00:42:52.757 --> 00:42:53.327
Here you go.
00:42:53.387 --> 00:42:53.896
It's like
00:42:53.940 --> 00:42:54.210
Yeah.
00:42:54.210 --> 00:42:54.570
Mm-hmm.
00:42:54.677 --> 00:42:55.306
inward.
00:42:55.847 --> 00:43:01.067
Do this personal transformation to hold space for the planetary transformation we're in right now.
00:43:01.949 --> 00:43:02.489
Because you can.
00:43:02.519 --> 00:43:03.570
You can just see it.
00:43:03.570 --> 00:43:04.800
You can feel it.
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:12.239
I think that astrology is a comfort for me because it helps me understand myself and others in the world around me.
00:43:12.480 --> 00:43:15.900
And so it has, like you said, eliminated that state of fear.
00:43:16.170 --> 00:43:22.980
But I'm just like looking around and I'm seeing, you know, the ice raid, I'm seeing the war, I'm seeing the division and all these things.
00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:24.360
And while that is very.
00:43:24.914 --> 00:43:33.764
Heartbreaking and upsetting and enraging, and I think that if you're listening and you feel those things, like that's absolutely valid to be feeling heartbroken right now.
00:43:34.065 --> 00:43:43.934
I also can just see that like the systems are breaking, you know, and we're getting ready for this new world, this new society.
00:43:44.775 --> 00:43:47.445
The old just has to slough off first.
00:43:47.445 --> 00:43:50.385
And it's like sometimes things do get worse before they get better.
00:43:50.755 --> 00:43:59.664
But what I really am inspired by right now is seeing this rise of like matriarchal energy again,
00:43:59.746 --> 00:43:59.867
hmm.
00:44:00.175 --> 00:44:03.655
And a lot of conversations from women
00:44:03.762 --> 00:44:04.211
Mm-hmm.
00:44:04.315 --> 00:44:08.094
you know, like, we're just not going to like love you, like respectfully.
00:44:08.094 --> 00:44:10.554
We're not gonna put up with being treated this way anymore.
00:44:10.824 --> 00:44:12.565
I'm not gonna be silenced anymore.
00:44:13.344 --> 00:44:20.005
We can't forget our power anymore I mean, we're both wearing, we're both wearing our Beyonce shirts from Cowboy Carter tour.
00:44:20.184 --> 00:44:22.704
We wanted to be in our Virgo energy today with you.
00:44:22.710 --> 00:44:22.820
Yes.
00:44:22.961 --> 00:44:23.771
the Virgo Energy.
00:44:23.771 --> 00:44:24.851
I really appreciate that.
00:44:25.675 --> 00:44:27.025
Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
00:44:27.054 --> 00:44:31.525
But she's just always been like such an inspiration to me in so many different.
00:44:31.974 --> 00:44:32.635
Facets.
00:44:32.635 --> 00:44:49.914
Whether it's she's such a great businesswoman, just the mother that she is, the way that she leads us into these new ways of thinking and reminds us back of like, no, like we came from this and we're not going to let other people try to steal or make us feel small for these things.
00:44:49.914 --> 00:45:16.764
So all that to say, I, I wanna acknowledge what's happening in the world while also ridding this fear of like, we may not know what's going to happen tomorrow, but to me it's exciting knowing that we're moving into a different age, and I'm really excited to see all these people who are healers, who are, as Madi calls them, all the cosmic baddies and people that are just standing up and saying like, well, I have things to share.
00:45:16.945 --> 00:45:23.070
I think that this is gonna be a very important period in history of us sharing whatever resources that we have.
00:45:24.027 --> 00:45:24.686
Yes.
00:45:24.746 --> 00:45:25.257
Sharing.
00:45:25.257 --> 00:45:25.827
I love that.
00:45:25.827 --> 00:45:27.297
Sharing resources, right?
00:45:27.489 --> 00:45:27.909
Mm-hmm.
00:45:28.496 --> 00:45:29.456
your stories.
00:45:29.456 --> 00:45:32.847
They say like the truth dies in, in silence in the shadows.
00:45:32.847 --> 00:45:35.907
So it's like just bringing our authentic selves forward.
00:45:36.266 --> 00:45:39.827
And you know, it's very interesting what's happening in, in Iran.
00:45:39.827 --> 00:45:50.802
Like I, I was in high school for 9/11 and I remember feeling like really uncomfortable with like war and the Islamophobia that was running rampant.
00:45:51.251 --> 00:45:54.282
But at that age, I didn't really have the tools.
00:45:54.282 --> 00:45:55.211
I didn't have social media.
00:45:55.211 --> 00:45:57.581
I didn't understand myself enough to put myself out there.
00:45:57.581 --> 00:46:00.282
I would say and be privately, but I didn't really know.
00:46:00.282 --> 00:46:02.262
I was very unclear.
00:46:02.322 --> 00:46:02.592
Right.
00:46:02.592 --> 00:46:02.802
And I
00:46:02.844 --> 00:46:03.175
Yeah.
00:46:03.192 --> 00:46:04.152
Unsafe.
00:46:04.362 --> 00:46:07.152
Now, you know, obviously I'm much older but.
00:46:07.317 --> 00:46:21.266
Knowing myself, knowing my chart, knowing the chart of what's happening collectively, and knowing that like, honey, no, like if something is wrong, you effing stand up and say something because it's the only way for you to live in alignment.
00:46:21.297 --> 00:46:26.847
And like, you know, spirituality and astrology can be used for things like manifesting, but if you're not living in alignment.
00:46:27.836 --> 00:46:28.706
What's the damn point?
00:46:28.706 --> 00:46:29.277
Like what
00:46:29.335 --> 00:46:29.815
Yeah.
00:46:29.820 --> 00:46:30.179
Mm-hmm.
00:46:31.137 --> 00:46:37.677
a great car or a beach vacation if you're like walking around with your truth all like shoved into your heart and just
00:46:37.900 --> 00:46:38.119
Mm.
00:46:38.157 --> 00:46:43.586
know, feeling this, this feeling of yeah, just not living in your full expression.
00:46:43.586 --> 00:46:43.887
And
00:46:43.889 --> 00:46:44.309
Mm-hmm.
00:46:44.786 --> 00:46:49.016
and I think there is such comfort in, I just wanna validate what you said, like I don't.
00:46:49.336 --> 00:46:53.777
I don't know the future with astrology, but you can see the cycles and the patterns.
00:46:54.106 --> 00:47:03.077
Like having the biggest like movie blurb of all time be like, I don't know how know the high level points of the movie, but the scenes are gonna still surprise me.
00:47:03.864 --> 00:47:04.644
Yes.
00:47:04.786 --> 00:47:08.717
the high level points is were not going back the way we came.
00:47:08.717 --> 00:47:15.197
This is a time of such evolution revolution and it really is gonna be a time where.
00:47:15.536 --> 00:47:17.637
The power is gonna go back to the people.
00:47:17.876 --> 00:47:23.336
But of course, to get there, things have to break all the way down.
00:47:23.364 --> 00:47:23.844
Yes.
00:47:23.875 --> 00:47:24.295
Yeah.
00:47:24.297 --> 00:47:25.197
are we here?
00:47:25.780 --> 00:47:26.559
Are we there yet?
00:47:26.967 --> 00:47:27.447
yet?
00:47:27.550 --> 00:47:29.079
Where's our rock bottom?
00:47:29.139 --> 00:47:31.780
I know we thought that we've gotten there, but I, I don't know.
00:47:31.780 --> 00:47:33.519
It just keeps going lower and lower.
00:47:33.574 --> 00:47:33.864
Yeah.
00:47:34.942 --> 00:47:46.742
but yeah, that's something that I think we kind of struggle and battle with every day as far as like, how much energy do we give to these things that are happening?
00:47:47.699 --> 00:47:47.918
Hmm.
00:47:48.061 --> 00:47:55.411
Far as like acknowledgement and not living in like blind privilege because it's not directly happening to us at the moment.
00:47:55.442 --> 00:48:00.931
And so I think that we try to kind of balance our focus a little bit.
00:48:00.961 --> 00:48:04.592
It's like, how can we acknowledge that these things are happening, use.
00:48:04.922 --> 00:48:06.242
Like what we have right here.
00:48:06.271 --> 00:48:09.902
A platform for good or building a community for good, right?
00:48:09.931 --> 00:48:15.902
And so we can kind of get these people that are probably feeling the same way as us together and we can lean on one another.
00:48:16.202 --> 00:48:30.032
It's part of why the revolution is necessary, because we have just, I think, kind of forgotten how to do that and like be with one another and be at peace with one another, even in the midst of like disagreements.
00:48:30.302 --> 00:48:31.711
And so that's a struggle for us.
00:48:31.711 --> 00:48:37.652
It's like how much do we really, how much energy do we put into it so that we're not making ourselves sick?
00:48:38.251 --> 00:48:38.461
Yeah.
00:48:38.461 --> 00:48:41.431
But also not ignoring the fact that these things are happening too.
00:48:41.431 --> 00:48:43.172
So, we love that.
00:48:43.172 --> 00:48:48.242
I'm really excited to get into that part of the book.
00:48:48.362 --> 00:48:55.442
With reading all the archetypes, because like we mentioned earlier, like when we focus on astrology, it's really just like, what's my, what's my stuff?
00:48:55.742 --> 00:48:56.612
What do we got going on?
00:48:56.612 --> 00:48:56.702
Right?
00:48:56.838 --> 00:48:57.018
right,
00:48:57.181 --> 00:48:57.632
Yeah.
00:48:57.661 --> 00:48:58.472
What, what about me?
00:48:58.608 --> 00:48:58.998
me for a
00:48:59.222 --> 00:48:59.402
Yeah.
00:49:01.039 --> 00:49:01.278
A little Me?
00:49:01.981 --> 00:49:02.492
Yeah.
00:49:02.822 --> 00:49:07.711
And so I love that we are kind of bringing everything back to like a wider lens.
00:49:07.711 --> 00:49:13.172
It's like a bigger scope of things that astrology can be, not just like, what's gonna go on, like my life today?
00:49:13.172 --> 00:49:15.242
Like what's, what's gonna happen to me?
00:49:15.422 --> 00:49:17.072
You know, it's not, it's not that.
00:49:17.072 --> 00:49:18.871
It can be that, and we love that.
00:49:18.871 --> 00:49:19.501
It can be that.
00:49:19.503 --> 00:49:21.184
because it's all important, right?
00:49:21.271 --> 00:49:21.782
Yeah.
00:49:22.054 --> 00:49:23.793
gonna happen to you, to you today?
00:49:23.793 --> 00:49:24.123
You know?
00:49:24.123 --> 00:49:26.014
Like, am I gonna get that job promotion?
00:49:26.014 --> 00:49:27.423
Am I gonna meet a cute boy?
00:49:27.423 --> 00:49:27.664
Like
00:49:28.126 --> 00:49:28.306
Yes.
00:49:28.336 --> 00:49:28.786
Right?
00:49:29.742 --> 00:49:31.487
like you said, we can't only focus on the macro.
00:49:32.514 --> 00:49:32.934
Yeah.
00:49:32.940 --> 00:49:33.139
Mm-hmm.
00:49:33.251 --> 00:49:34.362
focus on the micro, and I
00:49:34.380 --> 00:49:34.800
Mm-hmm.
00:49:34.992 --> 00:49:37.362
long these worlds were separate, right?
00:49:37.422 --> 00:49:43.391
Like the spiritual self-development work and then the big like social geopolitical wor work.
00:49:43.525 --> 00:49:44.034
Yeah.
00:49:44.094 --> 00:49:44.514
Right?
00:49:44.561 --> 00:49:46.362
moment of like bringing it all together,
00:49:46.644 --> 00:49:47.425
Yes.
00:49:47.425 --> 00:49:48.684
Mm-hmm.
00:49:48.762 --> 00:49:49.902
could say they perfected it yet.
00:49:50.320 --> 00:49:50.889
Right.
00:49:50.934 --> 00:49:51.434
No, definitely.
00:49:51.440 --> 00:49:52.300
Yeah, that's a good point.
00:49:52.300 --> 00:49:53.769
It does really feel like that.
00:49:53.769 --> 00:50:00.730
I feel like everything is like coming to a head to together, like everything's kind of relating to each other.
00:50:00.789 --> 00:50:00.880
Mm-hmm.
00:50:01.250 --> 00:50:06.199
And that's really interesting'cause I've never really felt that way at a point in history before.
00:50:06.199 --> 00:50:07.190
Maybe I just wasn't aware of it.
00:50:07.730 --> 00:50:08.059
Hmm.
00:50:08.059 --> 00:50:10.159
Or wasn't there for it, I guess.
00:50:10.190 --> 00:50:10.489
Right.
00:50:10.519 --> 00:50:10.789
Yeah.
00:50:12.110 --> 00:50:13.010
Maybe in a different life.
00:50:13.099 --> 00:50:13.489
Yeah.
00:50:13.579 --> 00:50:14.809
Um, but yeah, I guess,
00:50:14.856 --> 00:50:15.217
life.
00:50:15.389 --> 00:50:15.829
Yeah.
00:50:15.860 --> 00:50:16.849
Speaking.
00:50:17.360 --> 00:50:23.300
To that and how, you know, a lot of the time astrology can get watered down by like a daily horoscope
00:50:23.481 --> 00:50:23.902
Mm-hmm.
00:50:24.230 --> 00:50:25.670
am I compatible with this person?
00:50:25.670 --> 00:50:33.059
A lot of the time we are reading into like romantic compatibility within astrology which is great and we love that.
00:50:33.059 --> 00:50:39.440
But for us we really wanted to dive into friendship compatibility and how that kind of.
00:50:40.324 --> 00:50:48.695
Goes into how we relate to one another, how we like function with one another, and how we kind of like play off each other's astrological energies.
00:50:49.025 --> 00:50:56.994
So how can we show up more fully in our friendships with one another without people pleasing or performing?
00:50:58.061 --> 00:50:58.692
Mm.
00:50:59.572 --> 00:51:05.902
Well, I do, I love that, you know, you are bringing this up because it is not the usual question in astrology, and I always love that.
00:51:05.952 --> 00:51:10.902
But the two of you, you know, doing this work together, it's very much related to your, your 10th house.
00:51:10.952 --> 00:51:12.452
Because you're doing this in like a public
00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:12.699
Ooh.
00:51:12.722 --> 00:51:17.192
It's a sort of putting yourself out there in a, say, professional, but in a way that's like in your purpose.
00:51:18.047 --> 00:51:21.007
Broadcasting a part of you out to the world quite literally.
00:51:22.496 --> 00:51:25.706
You know, Crystina, you have a Aquarius in your, in your 10th house.
00:51:25.706 --> 00:51:26.516
So it's like, uh,
00:51:26.840 --> 00:51:26.960
Hmm.
00:51:26.967 --> 00:51:28.827
is a lot about our friendships and our friend groups.
00:51:28.827 --> 00:51:30.476
So of course you're like working.
00:51:31.242 --> 00:51:35.501
With a friend to bring out these Aquarian, you know, things out into the world.
00:51:35.862 --> 00:51:38.731
And then for you, Danie, it's like, you have Libra in your 10th house.
00:51:38.731 --> 00:51:45.181
So a little bit of that like relationship building is always gonna be part of your career and your public self.
00:51:45.181 --> 00:51:46.592
So I just have to take a moment.
00:51:46.621 --> 00:51:48.572
'cause if astrology isn't real, then why?
00:51:48.842 --> 00:51:50.311
Because like, well, what a unique question.
00:51:50.311 --> 00:51:51.632
So I'm looking at your chart while you're talking.
00:51:51.632 --> 00:51:51.871
I'm like.
00:51:52.242 --> 00:51:53.081
Yes, of course.
00:51:53.081 --> 00:51:55.782
And that's what I always say, it's in your heart, it's in your chart.
00:51:55.782 --> 00:51:56.532
Like the things that we're
00:51:56.664 --> 00:51:56.954
Yeah.
00:51:57.461 --> 00:51:58.092
It's there.
00:51:58.092 --> 00:52:02.561
And, and it's a big part of us and our soul wants to like actualize in this lifetime.
00:52:02.831 --> 00:52:06.791
So I just wanna say for everyone, if you have something, a question, pull on that thread.
00:52:06.791 --> 00:52:07.572
Pull on that thread.
00:52:07.764 --> 00:52:08.184
Mm-hmm.
00:52:08.291 --> 00:52:19.112
the two of you um, and for everyone listening about friendships well, first and foremost, I think it comes down to trusting yourself and honoring yourself.
00:52:21.132 --> 00:52:33.541
You know, and maybe not in that specific order, but the best friendships are gonna be built on you first and foremost, knowing how to honor yourself, knowing what your needs are, how to articulate them, how to advocate for them.
00:52:33.931 --> 00:52:35.911
So that way I think so many.
00:52:36.317 --> 00:52:43.996
Times in life, or at least for, I speak for myself because you know, as definitely someone who's very empathetic, very watery.
00:52:44.206 --> 00:52:44.507
I feel like
00:52:44.610 --> 00:52:45.000
Yeah.
00:52:45.286 --> 00:52:46.976
Is like the water of earth signs.
00:52:46.996 --> 00:52:48.947
I always think things like that in my head that are so weird.
00:52:48.976 --> 00:52:49.186
'cause I'm
00:52:49.289 --> 00:52:49.920
Yeah.
00:52:50.266 --> 00:52:52.306
and we're kind of just like, wanna help.
00:52:52.306 --> 00:52:52.487
And
00:52:52.643 --> 00:52:53.213
Yeah.
00:52:53.380 --> 00:52:55.331
like I said, the birth order oldest.
00:52:55.510 --> 00:52:56.471
I have four daughters.
00:52:56.471 --> 00:52:56.800
I'm like,
00:52:56.849 --> 00:52:57.268
Mm-hmm.
00:52:57.880 --> 00:53:00.280
have always struggled with people pleasing and saying
00:53:00.469 --> 00:53:00.889
Mm-hmm.
00:53:01.030 --> 00:53:07.150
honestly, a lot of times it's'cause I want to like, I wanna help my friends, I wanna help my husband, my my sisters.
00:53:07.231 --> 00:53:16.990
But I think figuring out, first of all, checking with yourself of like that self-honoring knowing your needs and knowing when you feel like you're starting to, I like to call it like.
00:53:17.396 --> 00:53:19.646
You know, stepping off your throne a little bit.
00:53:19.646 --> 00:53:24.715
Like where am I starting to get oo off of my solid ground and into like that shaky space.
00:53:24.985 --> 00:53:37.856
And again, astrology can really help us understand that maybe a good spot to start would be your moon sign, because our moon sign is usually what will come out when we're feeling a little tense, a little tired, a little
00:53:37.983 --> 00:53:38.403
Mm-hmm.
00:53:38.965 --> 00:53:45.445
A little overextended, and we can kind of listen to that when it's a whisper instead of a roar.
00:53:45.876 --> 00:53:48.755
And it's really our responsibility to figure that out first, right?
00:53:48.755 --> 00:53:48.905
Like
00:53:48.974 --> 00:53:49.324
Right.
00:53:49.326 --> 00:54:01.226
Dunno if we're people pleasing, if we're right, like so I think that honoring of ourselves and then that like, that being in that, that truth and that trust, that place of like, okay, I'm gonna trust myself.
00:54:02.065 --> 00:54:07.945
That I can say this thing and express it, and again, at the whisper before a nudge, because a whisper I
00:54:07.969 --> 00:54:08.048
Hmm.
00:54:08.155 --> 00:54:14.956
say to you, Hey, Crystina, you know, I said yes to that thing this weekend, but I'm actually feeling really burnt out.
00:54:14.956 --> 00:54:15.045
Like.
00:54:15.257 --> 00:54:17.027
I'm so sorry, but I'm gonna have to bow out.
00:54:17.027 --> 00:54:17.327
Right?
00:54:17.336 --> 00:54:24.987
And it's like, okay, can I trust myself to say that in a way where I'm not just like F Crystina, like show up and just be huffy puffy the whole time.
00:54:24.987 --> 00:54:28.766
And then being like all like bitter and weird and it's like, okay, can I trust myself to express it?
00:54:28.766 --> 00:54:31.313
And can I trust Crystina to.
00:54:31.813 --> 00:54:34.873
Receive it and then trust her if she's upset to say it back to me.
00:54:35.173 --> 00:54:39.103
Because I think the worst thing that can get into friendships is when we're just not being honest with each other.
00:54:39.103 --> 00:54:40.333
It sounds so funny, but like,
00:54:41.052 --> 00:54:41.561
Mm-hmm.
00:54:41.653 --> 00:54:41.983
True.
00:54:41.983 --> 00:54:44.173
It's like, well, I'm saying yes when I mean no.
00:54:44.293 --> 00:54:44.623
And so
00:54:44.922 --> 00:54:45.251
Right.
00:54:45.344 --> 00:54:51.554
up on a weird, passive aggressive, so then she gets a little weird back or then it's like, and something starts to build there.
00:54:51.643 --> 00:54:56.364
And I always think about something that's helped me in my friendships in my sisterhood.
00:54:56.898 --> 00:55:04.719
My place of also like, you know, recovering from, as Oprah says, the disease to please just from Dr.
00:55:04.719 --> 00:55:05.559
Brene Brown.
00:55:05.559 --> 00:55:07.208
That clarity is kindness.
00:55:07.208 --> 00:55:10.838
Like being clear is kind, being unclear, is unkind.
00:55:10.869 --> 00:55:15.699
Like I have been amazed by the times in my life where I've just been really clear with people I love and.
00:55:16.034 --> 00:55:17.143
Like, I can't do that.
00:55:17.143 --> 00:55:18.434
And they're like, great, awesome.
00:55:18.434 --> 00:55:19.123
Good for you.
00:55:19.423 --> 00:55:22.423
Whereas when I'm like, I think I can, but I can't, but maybe I will.
00:55:22.423 --> 00:55:23.264
Okay, I will.
00:55:23.414 --> 00:55:24.494
But like, I'm gonna be really tired.
00:55:24.494 --> 00:55:29.923
I'm gonna, and it's like, well, and now all of a sudden I'm not really telling.
00:55:29.954 --> 00:55:30.134
Right.
00:55:30.284 --> 00:55:30.643
I'm being
00:55:30.856 --> 00:55:31.206
Right.
00:55:31.333 --> 00:55:31.603
And then
00:55:31.606 --> 00:55:32.027
Mm-hmm.
00:55:32.204 --> 00:55:32.833
lot of.
00:55:33.851 --> 00:55:35.711
Confusion and miscommunication.
00:55:35.711 --> 00:55:39.161
And I think like that's where hurts and wounded and, and space comes in.
00:55:39.161 --> 00:55:42.612
So I think, yeah, like knowing how to honor yourself.
00:55:42.661 --> 00:55:45.271
And also we know we can take much better care of our friends.
00:55:45.271 --> 00:55:49.052
We know how to take care of ourselves and then just cultivating this trust.
00:55:49.291 --> 00:55:52.052
And a big foundation of that is like, is that clarity.
00:55:52.052 --> 00:55:54.572
Clarity as kindness and trust me, like practice it.
00:55:55.219 --> 00:55:57.619
Every time I do it, I'm like, this is not gonna work this time.
00:55:57.619 --> 00:55:58.608
I can't say this thing.
00:55:58.608 --> 00:55:58.938
I can't.
00:55:58.938 --> 00:56:02.208
I'm kind, you're being nice when you say it, but I'm like, I can't say no.
00:56:02.208 --> 00:56:03.438
They're gonna be so mad at me.
00:56:03.889 --> 00:56:04.248
And then
00:56:04.262 --> 00:56:04.891
Yeah.
00:56:04.922 --> 00:56:05.192
Mm-hmm.
00:56:05.208 --> 00:56:05.628
cool.
00:56:05.719 --> 00:56:06.259
Thanks.
00:56:06.349 --> 00:56:06.798
Thanks for
00:56:06.811 --> 00:56:07.771
Thanks for telling me.
00:56:07.952 --> 00:56:08.101
Mm-hmm.
00:56:08.342 --> 00:56:08.431
Yeah.
00:56:08.449 --> 00:56:09.378
can move on.
00:56:10.021 --> 00:56:10.382
Right.
00:56:10.387 --> 00:56:10.777
Mm-hmm.
00:56:11.222 --> 00:56:11.581
Yeah.
00:56:11.599 --> 00:56:12.018
Right.
00:56:12.242 --> 00:56:14.492
something I'm like challenging myself too with right now.
00:56:14.521 --> 00:56:15.512
'cause like I.
00:56:16.434 --> 00:56:17.545
am a Cancer moon.
00:56:17.724 --> 00:56:30.295
I have very big emotions and when I feel a little bit backed into a corner, a little bit burnt out, I get, I get the crab claws out and I'm like, Ooh, I don't, I don't like that.
00:56:30.385 --> 00:56:31.315
You know, like looking in the mirror.
00:56:31.315 --> 00:56:31.467
I'm like, I don't.
00:56:32.530 --> 00:56:34.929
That's not how I wanna, like, treat people that I love.
00:56:34.929 --> 00:56:36.969
So being a lot more clear.
00:56:37.190 --> 00:56:37.820
So I love that.
00:56:37.820 --> 00:56:51.829
So looking at the 10th house, looking at your moon sign, um, is there any other placements that you think are like really significant in, um, I don't necessarily wanna say compatibility, but like really calling in like those soul friends?
00:56:52.222 --> 00:56:53.632
Mm, absolutely.
00:56:53.632 --> 00:56:53.931
Yeah.
00:56:53.931 --> 00:57:01.498
So, um, look at your 11th house'cause it might unlock for you what you need or what you look for in your friendships, in your groups.
00:57:01.498 --> 00:57:03.958
But yeah, your moon sign, and I always like to say.
00:57:04.813 --> 00:57:10.454
yourself, but also if you really wanna be a really good friend, like get to know your bestie's Chiron Get
00:57:10.556 --> 00:57:11.277
Hmm.
00:57:11.474 --> 00:57:16.393
wounded healer because it's going to come up all the time.
00:57:16.423 --> 00:57:18.253
Like we never, we're never done with our Chiron.
00:57:18.253 --> 00:57:20.804
We never like graduate and it like disappears from our chart.
00:57:20.853 --> 00:57:21.333
And I love it.
00:57:21.333 --> 00:57:21.934
Everyone has it.
00:57:21.934 --> 00:57:22.804
Beyonce has it.
00:57:22.804 --> 00:57:23.793
I think about that all the time.
00:57:23.793 --> 00:57:24.094
I'm like.
00:57:25.083 --> 00:57:25.684
Bitch.
00:57:25.864 --> 00:57:27.244
Beyonce has a Chiron.
00:57:27.423 --> 00:57:27.693
We
00:57:27.887 --> 00:57:28.516
Ooh.
00:57:28.773 --> 00:57:29.344
We are born
00:57:29.536 --> 00:57:29.896
Right,
00:57:30.094 --> 00:57:30.994
our job
00:57:31.367 --> 00:57:31.697
right,
00:57:31.864 --> 00:57:33.784
transmute that wound into our
00:57:33.827 --> 00:57:34.606
right.
00:57:34.773 --> 00:57:45.364
our job to take the medicine that we need and then maybe make that medicine in some way, again, whether it's in our art or our friendships or an actual healing practice or whatever it is.
00:57:45.364 --> 00:57:46.114
And then.
00:57:46.914 --> 00:58:07.724
it's like such a gift to know someone who loves Chiron because you'd be like, mm, baby, your chiron's showing a little bit honey, like, bestie, like you're feeling that wound, or you're overcompensating or you're in a place of avoidance because you know, your, your Chiron and Leo is telling you that you don't deserve to have fun and play, or that you're not special enough to take up space for yourself.
00:58:08.173 --> 00:58:08.623
Sorry, I'm
00:58:08.751 --> 00:58:10.161
That's, that's great.
00:58:10.222 --> 00:58:11.186
We have the same one.
00:58:11.903 --> 00:58:14.304
I know I'm not, I'm like, I'm like trying to speak.
00:58:15.054 --> 00:58:29.963
and you guys have both have beautiful, like, you know, Crystina, yours is the fourth house of your home, your family, and your roots, and Danie yours is in your eighth house, of which is like our, our subconscious, our, our feminine, our Kundalini energy, our, so it's like those are very tender spots to have Chiron.
00:58:30.253 --> 00:58:34.393
And so you can kind of just hold a beautiful mirror to each other.
00:58:34.659 --> 00:58:43.059
Or reminder, and even that's why I love astrology sometimes it's just the context of like, you're not crashing out because you know you did something or messed up your life.
00:58:43.059 --> 00:58:48.849
You're like, oh, your Chiron just got like that little tender nerve just got hit by the universe.
00:58:49.028 --> 00:58:58.418
But when that happens, it's the moment to like go deeper, to sit with that, to let yourself feel it, to heal it, to then see like what does it wanna reveal to you?
00:58:58.418 --> 00:59:02.079
Because like Chiron is also the key, like we talked about before.
00:59:02.878 --> 00:59:09.599
You could ignore all of this, but you'll feel like that's what I call like the comfort zone In my book, it's like you don't have to do this work.
00:59:09.599 --> 00:59:13.588
There's a lot of people out here who don't do this kind of work, but you will feel disconnected.
00:59:14.489 --> 00:59:19.559
You'll feel disconnected from your life force energy, from your vibrancy, from your magic, from your joy.
00:59:19.559 --> 00:59:20.518
And like, we don't want that.
00:59:20.548 --> 00:59:20.969
Hello?
00:59:21.148 --> 00:59:25.469
So it's a great moment of like, Hey baby, like I know you're feeling this right now, but let's sit with
00:59:25.481 --> 00:59:25.702
Hmm.
00:59:25.739 --> 00:59:26.548
Let's see what's coming up.
00:59:26.608 --> 00:59:29.608
Remember, it's not just you with your Chiron, this is part of your divine design.
00:59:30.028 --> 00:59:33.389
And like even if it's kind of scary, even if you don't want to, and you can also don't have to do it.
00:59:33.389 --> 00:59:34.798
You can take a nap and then do it.
00:59:35.099 --> 00:59:35.789
But like, can we
00:59:35.936 --> 00:59:36.507
Yeah.
00:59:36.809 --> 00:59:40.199
go right into that Chiron and Leo instead of running away from it and just.
00:59:40.693 --> 00:59:41.744
See what happens.
00:59:41.773 --> 00:59:41.923
Right.
00:59:41.923 --> 00:59:42.344
And I'm right
00:59:42.507 --> 00:59:42.806
Yeah.
00:59:43.003 --> 00:59:44.954
your hand every step of the way.
00:59:44.983 --> 00:59:45.313
Right.
00:59:45.313 --> 00:59:51.733
Like, and, again, we'll do it and then together we can go get a little, a little cocktail.
00:59:51.764 --> 00:59:52.003
Go have a
00:59:52.112 --> 00:59:52.532
Mm-hmm.
00:59:52.724 --> 00:59:53.474
We can go do something.
00:59:53.474 --> 00:59:54.403
We can watch a Netflix show.
00:59:54.403 --> 00:59:56.054
Like we don't have to be in it forever.
00:59:56.054 --> 00:59:56.923
But can we just do one
00:59:56.952 --> 00:59:57.371
Mm-hmm.
00:59:57.403 --> 00:59:59.054
Chiron and Leo right now?
00:59:59.101 --> 00:59:59.391
Yeah.
00:59:59.572 --> 00:59:59.992
Mm-hmm.
01:00:00.746 --> 01:00:01.797
Yeah, let's tap in.
01:00:01.887 --> 01:00:02.246
Yeah.
01:00:02.427 --> 01:00:04.106
We love.
01:00:04.481 --> 01:00:05.681
Talking about friendship.
01:00:05.681 --> 01:00:09.672
We are two girlies who have always prioritized friendship in our lives.
01:00:09.672 --> 01:00:18.641
Maybe even to like, I wouldn't say our detriment, but we've, uh, we both have had experience of like, we give, give, give, give, give so much in our friendships.
01:00:18.882 --> 01:00:25.391
Um, and I think that even just within each other we've been able to like hold each other and balance each other in that way.
01:00:25.391 --> 01:00:28.072
So we love talking about it.
01:00:28.072 --> 01:00:31.311
I mean, you guys love hearing about it and.
01:00:31.637 --> 01:00:33.286
Engaging with friendship, content.
01:00:33.286 --> 01:00:35.626
So we really wanted to take that lens with it.
01:00:35.626 --> 01:00:47.447
'cause it's really not something that I hear a lot on social media or podcasts is like talking about astrology when it comes to your friendships and showing up for yourself so you can show up better for your friends.
01:00:48.498 --> 01:00:50.989
Yeah, because that's who's with us like forever.
01:00:51.376 --> 01:00:52.067
Mm-hmm.
01:00:52.458 --> 01:00:53.239
and you're so right.
01:00:53.268 --> 01:00:54.168
I was like, really?
01:00:54.168 --> 01:00:57.768
When you were asking the question, was almost like sad.
01:00:57.798 --> 01:00:58.219
I was happy.
01:00:58.219 --> 01:01:00.018
I was like, oh, but no one ever asked me about this.
01:01:00.018 --> 01:01:01.608
Like, and it's so true.
01:01:01.608 --> 01:01:07.938
Like my, you know, your friends that are the ones who are there with you through so many things, and also likewise.
01:01:07.989 --> 01:01:13.688
The few like friend breakups I've had in my life, those are the ones that haunt me way more than any like men that I've broken up with.
01:01:13.688 --> 01:01:14.018
So
01:01:14.101 --> 01:01:14.552
Right.
01:01:14.581 --> 01:01:15.751
I forgot about them.
01:01:15.878 --> 01:01:16.208
yeah.
01:01:16.298 --> 01:01:16.599
Yeah.
01:01:18.188 --> 01:01:18.699
Who
01:01:18.961 --> 01:01:24.211
I forgot all about them, but I can still remember the person that I like lost in a friendship, you know?
01:01:24.211 --> 01:01:24.271
Yeah.
01:01:24.518 --> 01:01:24.849
a hundred?
01:01:24.878 --> 01:01:25.929
No, a hundred percent.
01:01:25.929 --> 01:01:33.309
And I think now more than ever, you know, when we talk about community, we hear that we're starting to hear that word a lot more online.
01:01:33.309 --> 01:01:36.458
It's part of the Pluto and Aquarius moment we're in.
01:01:36.657 --> 01:01:36.947
Yeah.
01:01:37.309 --> 01:01:48.514
But like your community is obviously like your community, whether it's a community of similar people with identities, you know, that are, are similar to yours or your actual like geographical corner of the world, but your community is like.
01:01:49.248 --> 01:01:52.938
It's your friends, it's, it's the people who you can lean on.
01:01:52.938 --> 01:01:57.768
The people who you can be like, okay, like to get on my own.
01:01:57.768 --> 01:02:08.119
This is way too much, but together we've got this, whether we're taking down the empire or just having a few like sacred giggles blowing off some steam.
01:02:08.389 --> 01:02:08.778
Right?
01:02:08.896 --> 01:02:09.347
Right.
01:02:09.349 --> 01:02:12.994
I think that's a really a great question and I think really important for everyone to hear.
01:02:13.936 --> 01:02:14.686
Yeah, for sure.
01:02:14.867 --> 01:02:17.686
So if you guys are wondering, you can look at.
01:02:18.422 --> 01:02:22.081
Your 11th house,'cause those are the people that you're really drawn to.
01:02:22.081 --> 01:02:25.021
For me, it's, um, Pisces, which totally checks out.
01:02:25.291 --> 01:02:27.181
I've always had this magnetism to Pisces.
01:02:27.181 --> 01:02:28.202
I could never explain it.
01:02:28.202 --> 01:02:32.222
And then I realized like, oh, I'm, I'm attracted to dreamers.
01:02:32.222 --> 01:02:40.411
I wanna be around people who are very, you know, in tune with themselves and spirituality and artistic and creative and things like that.
01:02:40.411 --> 01:02:45.842
So once I understood that, I was in one of Madi's courses actually, and once I understood that, I'm like, oh.
01:02:46.922 --> 01:02:48.331
This makes so much more sense now.
01:02:48.331 --> 01:02:50.972
I almost have, um, kind of like a guidebook.
01:02:50.972 --> 01:02:53.251
If you're looking for how do I make new friends?
01:02:53.251 --> 01:02:58.112
Maybe you've moved, maybe you've shed some old friends, whatever the case may be.
01:02:58.112 --> 01:03:06.242
It's like I looked at my 11th house and I was like, okay, these are the kinds of people that I'm really attracted to in life that I wanna be in community with and do life with.
01:03:06.242 --> 01:03:07.592
So where would those people be?
01:03:08.161 --> 01:03:09.722
And then kind of going out.
01:03:09.889 --> 01:03:10.398
Uh,
01:03:10.427 --> 01:03:14.536
outside, you know, touching some grass, being out in the wild and being like, you know what?
01:03:14.536 --> 01:03:19.436
I'm gonna go to this art event, or I'm gonna go to this.
01:03:19.467 --> 01:03:23.697
Um, I went to a solstice circle the other night and I met some amazing human beings.
01:03:23.876 --> 01:03:32.367
So I'm like, go to the places, look at your 11th house, and then go to those places that you really feel like those people that you're wanting to call in are going to be as well.
01:03:32.847 --> 01:03:33.297
Hmm.
01:03:34.003 --> 01:03:34.244
Ugh.
01:03:34.516 --> 01:03:36.192
I had to, I had to pull up time passages.
01:03:36.673 --> 01:03:37.393
Yeah, exactly.
01:03:37.692 --> 01:03:38.472
I'm like, where?
01:03:38.532 --> 01:03:40.211
What the F is in my 11th house
01:03:40.393 --> 01:03:40.873
oh my
01:03:40.992 --> 01:03:41.681
was a Scorpio.
01:03:42.192 --> 01:03:42.972
Yeah, she was
01:03:43.063 --> 01:03:43.934
Scorpio.
01:03:43.934 --> 01:03:44.173
And a
01:03:44.277 --> 01:03:44.757
Okay.
01:03:44.804 --> 01:03:46.793
which is beautiful because of Crystina.
01:03:47.338 --> 01:03:47.757
Mm-hmm.
01:03:47.929 --> 01:03:54.079
and s so you want people who are real and ride or die and not afraid of, you know, going into the, the deep stuff with you
01:03:54.307 --> 01:03:54.728
Mm-hmm.
01:03:54.829 --> 01:03:55.639
Not being ashamed.
01:03:55.639 --> 01:03:56.929
You guys are so cute.
01:03:56.929 --> 01:03:57.679
You're like, yeah.
01:03:58.137 --> 01:03:58.427
Yeah.
01:03:58.429 --> 01:03:59.179
then you want
01:03:59.657 --> 01:03:59.947
Yeah.
01:04:00.289 --> 01:04:08.840
energy, the, you know, adventurous spirits, the, the truth seekers, but also like, let's have some fun and then then like, let's go really low.
01:04:08.840 --> 01:04:08.943
But
01:04:08.943 --> 01:04:09.543
Fuck it.
01:04:09.693 --> 01:04:10.233
Yeah.
01:04:10.280 --> 01:04:10.460
it.
01:04:10.532 --> 01:04:12.842
Nothing really matters, right?
01:04:12.842 --> 01:04:14.943
Yeah, that's, that's really me.
01:04:15.213 --> 01:04:19.623
Ball or die energy, like, do you wanna talk about the political climate of the world?
01:04:19.623 --> 01:04:22.682
Actually, I know a great place to go get an espresso martini though.
01:04:23.210 --> 01:04:24.440
And it's like a both end.
01:04:24.440 --> 01:04:24.829
Like it's a
01:04:24.992 --> 01:04:25.353
Yeah.
01:04:25.429 --> 01:04:32.150
Like let's talk about our childhood trauma and also just like dance on a table and laugh and just have a, like a blast.
01:04:32.179 --> 01:04:36.800
'cause it's also like, it's what I were saying before, like we have to find the balance in these times.
01:04:37.070 --> 01:04:40.789
So I, I love that Also, Crystina Crystinas wanna say star student.
01:04:40.820 --> 01:04:43.789
I'm so proud of you for how you just interpreted your
01:04:44.043 --> 01:04:45.092
thank you.
01:04:45.182 --> 01:04:50.882
I just wanted to give it a shout out for anybody who's looking for a community, a container.
01:04:50.972 --> 01:04:55.143
You guys my, I mean, I shared a little bit on the podcast, but my life.
01:04:55.503 --> 01:04:58.652
Blew up and Madi warned me that that was gonna happen.
01:04:58.652 --> 01:05:03.063
She was like, people enter this container and things just like you get in a rocket and you go.
01:05:03.063 --> 01:05:05.163
And so I got laid off from my job.
01:05:05.163 --> 01:05:07.563
I decided I wanted to start my own business.
01:05:07.802 --> 01:05:11.882
I was going through things in a relationship where I thought that like, oh, I was gonna move forward with this person.
01:05:11.882 --> 01:05:15.108
It was like a giant halt stop sign in my face, you know?
01:05:15.108 --> 01:05:15.507
Mm-hmm.
01:05:15.592 --> 01:05:21.213
So entering this container really just like made me look at certain things and like, you know what?
01:05:21.963 --> 01:05:23.762
I came to this life to do some shit.
01:05:24.228 --> 01:05:31.277
So now I can do some shit'cause I have the support with the cosmic workbook that she gives you and you go through every single week.
01:05:31.983 --> 01:05:36.483
You look at different placements in your chart and you break down what it means for you and how to embody it.
01:05:36.483 --> 01:05:38.702
So I wanted to give that call out to people.
01:05:38.702 --> 01:05:52.422
If you really feel like that's something that you're needing right now in life, please go and look at all of the different, courses that Madi has right now, which kind of leads us to, I so hate that we have to end this time because we're just having so much fun.
01:05:52.422 --> 01:05:52.512
Mm-hmm.
01:05:52.782 --> 01:05:54.762
We could talk about this for literally hours.
01:05:54.793 --> 01:05:55.003
Yes.
01:05:55.123 --> 01:05:57.913
Um, but we just wanted to give you a second to let people know.
01:05:58.333 --> 01:06:03.943
Where they can find you, where they can find the book, and how they can connect with you more.
01:06:05.264 --> 01:06:05.625
Yeah.
01:06:05.655 --> 01:06:06.885
Well first of all, definitely connect.
01:06:06.885 --> 01:06:11.565
I am like, I love this whole community.
01:06:11.565 --> 01:06:12.885
I love new people coming in.
01:06:12.885 --> 01:06:14.445
I'm always checking my dms.
01:06:14.445 --> 01:06:16.034
I just, I love it.
01:06:16.034 --> 01:06:17.894
So it all, all are welcome.
01:06:17.965 --> 01:06:19.224

I have a weekly podcast where I do the energy report, weekly weather plus some other, you know, the astrology and the news mini episodes that are always long episodes because I talk too much.
01:06:41.282 --> 01:06:43.771
And we do guest things, so there's tons of resources there.
01:06:43.771 --> 01:06:45.782
We have tons of resources, a blog.

And then the book is available wherever you buy books.
01:06:57.875 --> 01:07:05.175
On my Cosmic Rx we have like local bookshops but of course like the big daddies or have them, the Amazon, the Barnes and Noble,
01:07:05.617 --> 01:07:05.838
Hmm.
01:07:06.231 --> 01:07:09.442
Also an audio book, which I'm recorded myself, which was
01:07:09.590 --> 01:07:09.889
Yay.
01:07:10.192 --> 01:07:14.302
but also such a big, my Chiron is in Gemini, the sign of the messenger and the communicator.
01:07:14.302 --> 01:07:14.572
So it
01:07:14.744 --> 01:07:14.824
Hmm.
01:07:15.112 --> 01:07:22.581
a growth edge for me because I can't even read like Yeah, like my children, like their books at night without stumbling over words.
01:07:22.581 --> 01:07:25.911
So, but it was so cool because audio books have saved my life.
01:07:25.911 --> 01:07:29.362
Like there's been so many times in life where it's like, I dunno if you even have the energy.
01:07:29.552 --> 01:07:32.702
To read a book, but I'm gonna put on this audio book and just take a
01:07:32.780 --> 01:07:33.110
Yeah.
01:07:33.422 --> 01:07:39.871
One step, one foot in front of the other, and I'm gonna get through this disaster I'm in, or this dark night of the soul.
01:07:40.052 --> 01:07:41.762
So I also wanted to just put it out there.
01:07:41.762 --> 01:07:50.291
I think this is a book that if that's like you I put a lot of love, I charge some energy in there, put some, like, you know, vibes into that.
01:07:50.391 --> 01:07:53.422
Yeah, then, or just come hang out on the cosmic orx Instagram with me.

01:08:25.689 --> 01:08:25.930
You're just.
01:08:25.989 --> 01:08:31.359
Such a beautiful human and I'm so honored that I came across your path in this lifetime.
01:08:31.359 --> 01:08:34.090
So thank you so much for coming on the podcast.
01:08:34.090 --> 01:08:39.319
And for you guys listening, you guys can go and order Madi's book Dive in.
01:08:39.319 --> 01:08:44.569
I would love to hear some of, um, your thoughts and insights on this conversation, or even on the book.
01:08:44.569 --> 01:08:51.859
You can tag Madi, you can tag us and be like, Hey, I read this, or I heard this on the podcast and it made me go down this little loophole and this is what I'm discovering.
01:08:51.859 --> 01:08:52.159
So.
01:08:52.260 --> 01:08:54.539
We love to have those kind of conversations with you.
01:08:54.539 --> 01:08:58.770
I know Madi would too, but until next time you guys, we will talk to you later.
01:09:00.016 --> 01:09:00.237
Bye.
01:09:00.359 --> 01:09:00.840
Bye.
