00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:30.480
Music.
00:04:30.367 --> 00:04:46.593
Welcome to the homebody podcast where we're going to dive into the forecast the astrology forecast for October of 2022 and charm would you mind a kicking us off by just letting it the listeners know.
00:04:46.788 --> 00:05:14.166
You know how you would like them to know you today and sort of what's most forward about who you are before we dive into the Stars for sure hello everyone I'm charm Torres I guess today I am a professional astrologer just like Mary Grace but I always like to sort of just described the work as I'm a diviner I'm a guide helping people navigate their life no.
00:05:14.182 --> 00:06:02.202
Primarily using the tool of astrology but also tarot because I also read tarot cards as well as through writing so a lot of that were kind of happens in those those kind of parameters and you know occasionally showing up and chatting with my peers about the astrological weather so I'm really excited to be here I can't believe we're at the last quieter of 2022 and yeah there's some juicy juicy stuff coming up that we're going to unpack for everyone yes it is Juicy and maybe it's the hashtag for this one I just had a moment wondering if lizzo was a Libra maybe she is Lisa shine.
00:06:02.370 --> 00:06:19.288
No someone else lives though because I was thinking oh this is so juicy I went there okay so I guess we're going to start the first thing we're going to talk about today is probably something a lot of people are waiting for which is on Sunday October 2nd Mercury will station.
00:06:19.303 --> 00:06:28.759
And Virgo I know I'm generally excited about it have mercury sort of functioning again how are you feeling about Mercury going Direct.
00:06:28.908 --> 00:06:47.007
You know what I actually just had like interesting reflection on 2022 some Mercury retrograde patterns generally speaking I guess some for this round at least on a personal level I think feel let that the sort of like.
00:06:47.012 --> 00:06:59.079
Pop culture phenomenon like we're gonna retrograde bashing so it was pretty chill for me but I was just reflecting how old this is the last pattern of.
00:06:59.408 --> 00:07:25.365
Where can we retrograding you know like starting from an air sign towards an earth sign because as we move into next year it would just be all or it signs which is a feature of Mercury retrograde so so I thought that Mercury the Mercury retrograde of 2022 in ways acted almost like a mediator between the Saturn Uranus.
00:07:25.461 --> 00:07:26.814
Square.
00:07:26.875 --> 00:07:41.552
Climate landscape that were Cecil moving through but yes so we do have mercury finally moving forward though which is exciting on October 2nd at 24 degrees were go so.
00:07:41.927 --> 00:08:10.862
Yeah I'm definitely excited about it I think they're you know when Mercury stations direct they will also be pretty closely opposite Neptune so I had just missed being of this thing's being kind of like Dusty it's sort of like Mercury like wakes up a little bit more and there's like a little bit of a mess and there's some dust on the books or like a cloud of confusion or even misconception or deception this like oh Mercury is going to have to like clean up a little bit like this has to be packed away this has to be dusted off.
00:08:10.904 --> 00:08:29.767
And now that I've dusted this off I can see that it says this and not that you know a lot of like Clarity and like putting things back in order and I think you know mercury in Virgo could definitely help us tidy up and get things working again I know for me any time Mercury goes retrograde even a little bit and Libra.
00:08:29.999 --> 00:08:36.861
It is insanely disorienting for me last year's like it was terrible so I'm really.
00:08:36.894 --> 00:08:46.341
I just get whacked out I don't know why but I'm so I'm really excited about Mercury stations direct and having just some help like you know rolling with the tasks and like.
00:08:46.346 --> 00:09:13.735
You know getting that abandoned filing system back in order the email threads or whatever so getting back to business I love the dusty reference like that so good I hate dust like it's just it's like part of life you always have to dust but yeah the opposition with Neptune with this station it's interesting because right around the pre retrograde Shadow was the first time where create a post Neptune.
00:09:13.831 --> 00:09:23.547
So that was like August 21st and then now it's happening again so it's always interesting this cycle of like it's almost I imagine Mercury entering like a wormhole.
00:09:23.860 --> 00:09:35.510
And then now sort of re-entering it but in the way also departing so it's like moving out of like opposition with Neptune eventually so.
00:09:35.535 --> 00:09:45.423
Yeah like re-entry perhaps yeah that makes a lot of sense I like the Wormhole analogy.
00:09:45.500 --> 00:10:41.443
And then do you have anything else you want to say about Week 1 and now there's a couple other things going on but to me Mercury stations retrograde feels loudest I think you mentioned it actually you brought it to my attention when we were preparing for this that like sort of the first almost the first half of October is when Saturn and Uranus is like still we didn't like a degree of squaring each other we know that in 2022 day squared each other exactly three times throughout the year in 2021 thank you 2024 but for this year this is this might be the Touchstone where they get the closest but they are like ships sailing in the night where they you know you ran is is going backward as like Saturn is moving forward so I guess as a translation I feel like.
00:10:41.404 --> 00:11:19.091
Especially with Mercury going direct as well this feels like a week or there is a lot of clarifying that will happen around I guess realizing the changes that are taking place in people's established reality and it's nothing new we've been going through this to some degree personally something we see out in the world since last year pretty much and then I think this year like speaking of dust it's like sort of settling in and figuring out how best to move forward so I just.
00:11:19.241 --> 00:11:21.846
Yes so we're going to kind of feel that angst.
00:11:22.374 --> 00:11:29.389
Again this month yeah angst is a great word yeah I like yeah it just feels like the sort of.
00:11:30.097 --> 00:11:32.927
You know because we have like Saturn it's sort of like.
00:11:33.428 --> 00:11:42.272
It can show up for us personally but especially because the you know the outer plan is kind of this kind of background noise or background climate it's sort of like when we think of the.
00:11:42.629 --> 00:11:49.302
Yeah the backdrop of what's happening in our lives and so it feels important to mention and describe like you did because it's you know we could be.
00:11:49.471 --> 00:12:29.498
Describing some other transits without mentioning them October feels sort of like Breezy but there's this like a background like slow collecting bit tense angsty thing happening but we won't talk a lot about today but it is something that's like Gathering again and you know but again like you said it's not like we've been in it and we're just going to be in it some more yeah it's like a re it's like a reminder you know not so gentle reminder yeah this is still this is still the plot like you just still The Arc of the plot that we're moving through and I guess like this is when when you you know when you sit with people one-on-one or if you.
00:12:29.629 --> 00:12:32.370
Attends like cuz I know you host community.
00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:45.729
Groups in the you get to figure out where in your own chart that this is possibly taking place but it's definitely more of a longer-term bigger picture lingering situation yeah.
00:12:45.779 --> 00:13:08.721
That's just gonna feel a lot more poignant this particular time of the year yeah for sure I think the only other kind of big outer planet thing I want to mention and I we don't have to spend a lot of time on it than Pluto will station Direct on October 8th in Capricorn and again more of a sort of collective big picture.
00:13:08.807 --> 00:13:39.239
Long-term force in story but definitely makes me feel like any kind of big Power players whether those be like countries or prominent people if they've been at all like kind of hanging back that perhaps now that Pluto stations direct they'll be sort of a little more dominant a little more forward a little more forthright if I think about it like on a chest table chess board or something it's like more actively or more aggressively like playing the game and yeah though.
00:13:39.470 --> 00:13:57.251
I mean I think that's a good point to attend to I guess for these like monthly slices of you know looking at things I tend to forego looking at the like a Pluto station however you're right cuz I think this would be when Pluto is just like.
00:13:57.437 --> 00:14:02.753
Moving through the last degrees of Capricorn and pretty much will enter.
00:14:03.533 --> 00:14:26.275
Aquarius like by March 2023 but then it will return to Capricorn for a bit but this is when it's the going to really finish out that the last few degrees of Capricorn which is wild so yeah it is so I think that takes us to Sunday October 9th where we have.
00:14:26.498 --> 00:14:37.105
The full moon in Aries which feels it feels really Dynamic among other things do you want to kick us off with the full moon and Aries how are you thinking about it or framing it.
00:14:37.517 --> 00:14:49.482
I guess we're I love looking at the surge of the bigger wheel of the year with any lunation particularly with the full moon so I think a lot about what was happening.
00:14:49.543 --> 00:15:25.691
At the last new moon in Aries you know when we that was I think around end of March so you know during every season obviously and I think the time the new moon in Aries was also in the sort of second you know like we did in the same similar degrees of this current full moon that also coincide with the 3 of Wands so I tend to actually look at the tarot signifier just an added layer of support to make sense of it but for sure for folks you know the full morning Aries wood.
00:15:25.813 --> 00:15:27.374
Tell you.
00:15:27.389 --> 00:15:36.115
The this is a culmination point in this figure cycle of whatever has started for you since.
00:15:36.355 --> 00:16:16.418
Pretty much like end of March of this year so for people who know their charts they can look at the Ares area of their Church to see what that's possibly about you know what has grown since then because when we think of the full moon that's like full illumination like this is like when things are on the stage you know being highlighted and shown there's there's things that you're having to I guess like find out as the truth in having to integrate things that maybe feel dissonant at this point in the in that process and also interesting to think of this full moon has like.
00:16:16.461 --> 00:16:55.335
About to have a supportive relationship with Saturn in Aquarius to so that feels really grounding as well because in general like just from a mundane perspective when the sun and the moon are opposite from an embodied point of view that's uncomfortable because opposition's are generally it's like discomfort but I feel like that additional supportive relationship with Saturn which is what we call a sec Style staff that can feel really grounding you know in a sense that if you had to cut things out you had if you had to.
00:16:55.764 --> 00:17:17.030
Take that take some excess away it'll probably feel good to have those like limiting boundaries that you know otherwise maybe in some context you could feel oppressive but technically speaking he'll probably really good to like take off some excess baggage whatever this phone could mean for you personally.
00:17:17.549 --> 00:17:31.470
Yeah oh and actually I didn't complete that thought about the 3 of Wands but I was thinking about just like 3 of Wands as like kind of being at the threshold of Discovery and like at threshold of like.
00:17:31.584 --> 00:17:46.944
You know departing from a previous kind of like binary and then moving towards something that's a lot more integrated but a lot of it like requires like some kind of momentum to move forward where as you're usually maybe like.
00:17:47.202 --> 00:18:03.950
Held back by some kind of inertia from the past you have to kind of like push through it so that might be a bit of like that discomfort but but in general you know like Aries is very courageous quite like quite like excited to initiate things so.
00:18:04.406 --> 00:18:26.438
So that's my interpretation how about you yeah no I mean I agree with all that I was specially the you know getting support from Saturn which sometimes that kind of poor it is more just like it feels kind of heavy or limiting and as we can for just forget that limitations can help us just hanging out having a boundary for a fire makes the fire productive oh.
00:18:26.507 --> 00:18:37.753
You know and so the Saturn's attorney and support may not be like our favorite kind all the time but it can be really helpful and I feel like sometimes Aires where they can because not Aries isn't really like concerned about.
00:18:37.903 --> 00:18:59.846
Like boundaries are limits so much could it could be a really like exaggerated heroic effort but then Saturn really bringing some of that like stability and support or some backing or infrastructure to my to the effort I think so it's like not like the work smarter not harder totally.
00:19:00.131 --> 00:19:13.915
I think that's such a good point to around containing the fire to make you more productive because this full moon would be ruled by a Mars in Gemini which I feel like Stokes that fire of.
00:19:14.255 --> 00:19:46.189
You know just like going big or you know go big or go bigger so I feel like the sextile with solder and can be really helpful to just like organized and getting grounded organized I love that contain novel way and I think it's also I don't talk about Chiron a lot on the podcast but the full moon is also like very close to Chiron and it may be which I only noticed because I have a lot of friends right now who are going through like their Chiron return and hey.
00:19:46.311 --> 00:19:48.863
So just thinking that maybe you know.
00:19:49.391 --> 00:20:24.053
Maybe this whether it's a Chiron return or maybe we have like an opportunity to sort of or to have a new perspective or a new understanding or culmination of some kind around any healing Journeys that may be happening in Aries or in the topics of Aries in our chart right now they may be adjacent to things around our capabilities or our efforts or our ability to save ourselves or be ourselves or and how that relates to our relationships with others especially because we have that Sun Moon opposition for the full moon and so it's a really strong pull between the Libra which is.
00:20:24.445 --> 00:20:37.501
The relational the we the compromising so we can be together and then the Aries which is the like the me the I my heroic effort my bravery my courage there are no compromises there is only my mission or you know whatever it is.
00:20:37.526 --> 00:20:41.814
So I think we all really feel that tension and maybe that Chiron conjunction could.
00:20:41.990 --> 00:21:04.824
Either you know just bring the concept or the highlighting of any healing Journeys or New Perspectives that have been happening along that path I love that I love that a lot yeah sort of like the wounds of authenticity in a in a bigger picture because the occurrence alone transient but this full moon is possibly your yet touching on those sore spots this times.
00:21:06.018 --> 00:21:20.433
Clown who has it was like a doing so good and then I think next we're moving too and always stop me if I mess up something or I forget some things very possible.
00:21:20.493 --> 00:21:28.355
I think necks are moving onto Mercury is going to enter Libra again now that we're hearing is direct and this is happening on October.
00:21:28.532 --> 00:21:35.701
10 so like you pointed out earlier Mercury retrograde this year sort of straddling are signs and Earth signs so Mercury was in Libra.
00:21:35.779 --> 00:22:21.522
Went back into Virgo on the retrograde and now that there are direct is moving back into Libra for the second time so they're still in there Shadow phase like they're still going back over ground they've done before but the change in sign walls would be a pretty big change in tone I think how are you feeling about it yeah I mean I think you will bring in sort of tagging along to the full moon conversation is that you will bring in that opposition to Jupiter eventually again so in a way when Mercury was moving through Libra and then retrograde you know moved backward again it basically had already opposed Jupiter twice so this this Forward Motion is going to oppose Jupiter.
00:22:21.619 --> 00:22:42.067
Which is an Aries for the final and third time and it's always interesting to imagine these like 3 hits contacts during retrograde periods is like I think of like the first hit as like oh something is being introduced here as a potential thing you need to you're going to need to look back at and then the second time is usually when.
00:22:42.208 --> 00:23:11.468
You know in this case Mercury was already retrograde you're like okay like whatever was introduced the first time I'm having to revisit and then the third time hopefully gives you a sense of you know resolution and how to move forward and I feel like mercury three entry into Libra and then posting Jupiter is so much of that I guess like when I think from a planetary point of view Mercury is so much about the Gathering of.
00:23:11.555 --> 00:23:17.454
Data whereas Jupiter is so much about harmonizing.
00:23:17.694 --> 00:24:03.114
The big picture meaning of things so this opposition is about that kind of putting things together somehow and you know the new ones of them being in those signs that they're in as well so again it highlights the Aries and Libra axis of your personal charts again again yeah for sure and yeah it feels you know Mercury is still like in Libra perhaps more other oriented than project-oriented for instance and Virgo it may be more about the task than it is about another but perhaps in mercury in Libra Mercury might be more other oriented and more people oriented or mediation oriented.
00:24:03.201 --> 00:24:50.087
So I think while there still may be some messes getting cleaned up that will need to be solved they may now be more in a relational tone and now sort of looking to Venus for the help who she's already been in there kind of cleaning up a little bit and I'll Mercury's like here to help not just make it more organized but we're also going to make it pretty so and how do we get it so we can like get along and make it social I think Anna did wherever go Mercury is more like how we just make it really good yeah and it's actually your that's such a good point to bring up the ruler of mercury this time which is you know now has come home to Venus in Libra back in September 29th because Venus was in Libra at the time when it first retrograde so I feel like this yeah this will really bring such a big layer of.
00:24:50.220 --> 00:24:52.292
You know any when we think of.
00:24:52.335 --> 00:25:06.561
Like Venus as archetypically about Justice in any kind of context you know something about that unfolding in this in this you know like sort of like the last leg of this Mercury retrograde cycle.
00:25:06.766 --> 00:25:21.182
Totally yeah like put it what should this cost what should help should this what be part of getting it in order is like restoring a sense of fairness or Justice or balance in some way yeah beautiful.
00:25:21.278 --> 00:25:42.499
Yes for pointing that out well yeah and then October 17 is when that's the date work we finally leaves it's like post retrograde Shadow so you will like kind of like go through new new new new landscape in a way as it finishes its time in learning and Libra.
00:25:42.874 --> 00:26:06.544
Yeah new sources new data it just sounds exciting where do we want to land next the next thing I have highlighted is not till week 4 which is pretty busy in October do you want to go ahead and jump there the week 3 like there are some things happening but they're not super.
00:26:06.567 --> 00:26:10.234
Loud is there anything that you want to mention there before we scoot over.
00:26:10.339 --> 00:26:28.202
I guess I feel like that yeah before the intensity of the last week of October a lot of it is like you know like the it's like the last minute like scuffle of the worst season before we descend to the depths of Scorpio season it's pretty much like.
00:26:28.299 --> 00:26:32.686
A lot of I guess like Venus as well as the sun.
00:26:32.827 --> 00:26:45.101
Going through like different kinds of aspects with with the planets at the later degrees and then they come together at some point is that the same timeline you're looking at it or.
00:26:45.196 --> 00:27:12.134
Yeah I have so many October and it's sort of interesting because you know they're like oh these are like soft things so like will have Venus will try and Saturn on October 19th at least more October 14th my time and then on Tuesday October 18th Venus will try and Mars so essentially because they're all in are signs right now Venusaur going to pass through these like harmonious relationships with the malefic planets in air signs which is.
00:27:12.446 --> 00:27:20.137
Interesting you know sort of likes and she's really dignified right now she's really capable she's in her house she's in her son and she sort of like she's like.
00:27:20.215 --> 00:27:36.683
Harness these bad boys to like do her you know like they're helping each other out and I just don't really grabbing the reins and away it just like having her way with it because she's way better you know positions than they are right now I think what do you think about that I love that image because like that sort of like it's almost like.
00:27:36.852 --> 00:28:04.869
Venus is moving through forming dislike Grand Trine and the Sun is sort of doing the same thing because they're going to catch up with each other but that's interesting to think of like a benefit Planet like Venus having this conversation with the the two malefic planets it almost feels like Venus in Libra is helping us get settled into Mars Gemini being there for a while you know like sort of like you have.
00:28:04.974 --> 00:28:13.890
We've come into that reality at the end of August with Mars in Gemini for ever will not forget that like seven months along but then.
00:28:14.030 --> 00:29:06.094
Totally and then Venus in Libra is like okay everyone this is the possible like fun you can have actually Mars in Gemini and yeah I feel like that it feels like a kind of like a host like showing us like how you can have fun with this potential setup for like you know the next half-year I was imagining as you were like personifying that situation I was imagining being as being like and have a drink you know like offering you a drink as well totally this requires a kind of you know drink support yeah just have a bath Edge fine even if it's not fine it'll be fun for sure think on on the topic of are signs to like what I love to think about when are elements is that are elements are.
00:29:06.199 --> 00:29:25.061
Potential oriented this way they're really good at like imagination and Concepts and ideas and ideals like very idealistic actually but also like quite strategic and logical in a sense so I feel like Venus in Libra can is sort of.
00:29:25.355 --> 00:29:50.538
Helping us kind of see how we could potentially like cognitively make sense of you know what's going on in our lives particularly if we kind of highlight Mars being in Gemini like in the gym and I approaching of your chart because you know look for most of the time Saturn will still be an aquarius while that's happening so it has a pretty kind of Hefty weight of like.
00:29:50.698 --> 00:29:52.329
This feels like.
00:29:52.983 --> 00:30:03.789
A kind of reality that people will kind of contend with for some time in a way that's going to linger even Beyond Mars moving on later on so.
00:30:04.155 --> 00:30:13.934
Yeah yeah yeah I think the last thing I wasn't picturing this sort of grand Trine moment and week three where you know at the same time we'll have Saturn and Uranus sort of peeking in there.
00:30:14.095 --> 00:30:17.383
Yeah injection at the same time and then we have.
00:30:17.433 --> 00:31:06.103
Like Venus Saturn and Mars kind of a lot of picturing kind of like a gear they just kind of like a lock into place for a second and what does that kind of synchronicity as well between those the are signs in our charts like those topics kind of like working together for a second like bring about some sense of like flow or Harmony kind of like you know the recycle symbol like how what is that going to do and love her um glad we didn't skip that the next thing I have is October 22nd or Venus conjoins the sun which I'm excited about because it's a new cycle for Venus do you want to start us going down that road or would you like me to post okay you can start as I'm like I'm so excited about it.
00:31:06.136 --> 00:31:43.849
So Venus can joining the Sun and this position is going to start a new like synodic cycle or a new cycle for Venus in relationship to the Sun and because it's happening in Libra than the things that Venus cares the most about in Libra are going to be a big in this new Venus chapter so it's like again bringing up those things that we talked about earlier these things like relationships and mediation and diplomacy and advocacy and Justice and maybe even also initiating things like art or Commerce right because we have the scales that are the scales are showing us what's weighing in the balance for justice but they also measure things like payment and compensation.
00:31:43.972 --> 00:32:26.916
And you know this will bring Venus into her Evening Star position and this conjunction she's really you know received Into the Heart of the Sun and like reinvigorated and inspired and enliven sort of to start this fresh journey and the cycle because a new one is beginning its also Closing one that began back in March of 2021 and in that cycle this Venus was an Aries so it was in the opposite of where it is now so again we have that like the similar Echoes do some of the things we've been talking about this sort of opposition's and also the complimentary themes of Aries and Libra and are charged so it may be thinking back like you know.
00:32:27.156 --> 00:32:59.801
How have some of those topics of all tell us some of your relational stories or your values or the sort of me and we scales how they evolved over the last since March of 20 21 and I'm not I don't want to make it sound like you know one is necessarily better than the other because like they're opposite but they are complimentary as well like they want different things but we need both of them and that individual that relational the heroic the creative social and I feel like it's this new chapter is because it's so opposite of.
00:33:00.230 --> 00:33:04.717
Perhaps what we've been working on in the previous cycle it's like.
00:33:05.290 --> 00:33:26.449
It's sort of like if you're working out your arms it's like all you do the biceps and we've been like doing biceps for like this whole cycle and now we're switching Cycles worth and now we'll do triceps so that we can have like a more balanced function which is of course what Libra wants is like a balance Quest but but those are all those are out of those I just threw a bunch of things in a pot but those are what I'm thinking about for this cycle how about you.
00:33:26.500 --> 00:33:44.228
I love that so much I love that you brought in the hole bigger Venus psyche like the Venus cycle with the sun actually kiss the qci Venus's Cycles are actually quite Exquisite and beautiful um and also anything when you mentioned the evening star.
00:33:44.278 --> 00:33:53.455
Peace I was just like oh yeah Venus loves being an evening star actually so that's really yeah I love that and I guess the Poetry of it like.
00:33:53.516 --> 00:34:00.260
Dad Venus enters Scorpio of the day after but but we have in that kind of Indian that initiation.
00:34:00.295 --> 00:34:05.068
Is like really beautiful and on the topic of opposition's to which you've sort of.
00:34:05.228 --> 00:34:19.876
Really unpacked is like I always like to think of how opposing signs in some way have like such a shared core desire but their methodologies in some way.
00:34:20.442 --> 00:34:26.358
Just is sewed opposite or so different but at the end of the day they actually share something quite.
00:34:26.581 --> 00:34:35.333
Core so so yeah that's really that's really cool I don't have anything more to add we did it so great.
00:34:35.393 --> 00:34:50.143
I just talked a lot and then for me I guess Saturn stationing direct is what happens next for me sort of the next few things are all happening on October 23rd and the Eastern Time Zone where I live.
00:34:50.221 --> 00:35:15.483
But for I think a lot of people anyone who's on like a later time the satyrs stationing direct will be October 22nd so it will be that sleep between the 22nd and 23rd do you want to say anything about Saturn stationing oh my gosh because you had this distillation direct at 18 degrees I guess I'm thinking more around what happens afterwards but definitely for folks who's been.
00:35:15.572 --> 00:35:34.938
You know having Saturn kind of lingered he's degrees for for sometime this year yeah it's finally going to move on particularly I think folks with significant fixed sign placement so that's like Taurus Leo Scorpio Aquarius you know Saturn has been.
00:35:35.079 --> 00:36:29.447
On the agenda of stabilizing these parts of your life in ways that maybe feel have been feeling really restrictive or like where you have to be really disciplined to figure out how to like you know like Angelique has structured those parts of your life but yeah this this there this station this moving forward would kind of bring us to a close with Saturn's Aquarius Journey eventually eventually you know that I'm going really far ahead I tend to always look at big Cycles I know we're just thinking about October but you know just sort of like thinking about how oh yeah Sirens going to start to pick up the speed and clear out you know the Saturn in Aquarius eventually so we're at the I think I'm like the last leg of its Journey.
00:36:29.804 --> 00:36:49.621
Yeah I mean I think that's really helpful to contextualize for people that mean this is kind of a big ship the sort of like a beginning of an end which will have when we talk about Jupiter and a minute to I feel like you know it's a pivot in a change in stance for Saturn like Saturn has been really powerful here but also has been sort of retrograding and more interested in.
00:36:50.193 --> 00:37:02.161
Going to going back over returning to you know what's already been done and again now more like forward-looking agendas again kind of going back to looking towards new ground and I feel like.
00:37:02.717 --> 00:37:24.262
It's also happening close to Uranus like we said so it may also that change in stands for that change in Direction may appear antagonistic towards whatever urine is trying to accomplish and those kind of polarized environments that have been cropping up everywhere breathing to a Saturn stationing direct it's like all the things that Saturn really brings or sort of like.
00:37:24.628 --> 00:37:41.969
Maybe reinforced you're reinstated so yeah they're like mate limits are coming maybe some limits or returning some boundaries are returning some rules that come up again or get reinforced in some way and if Saturn is either a really important planet for.
00:37:42.110 --> 00:38:26.889
You and your chart personally or in this a particular timing cycle in your life it's like it's Saturday evening retrograde it's like it's going slower than slow yes now it'll least we'll be back to like just regular slow now that Saturn is going direct yes yeah it's definitely that image of like backing up your car before you move forward kind of motion but yeah that's such a good point because it's almost like this this this Forward Motion might be one of those like acceptance of the new normal to be honest we've been kind of like fiddling with it in a way for for most of the year but like us as things kind of settle in it feels very much like oh this is.
00:38:27.050 --> 00:38:57.588
This is the new reality that we're living with now how can we adjust to this so mmm I think next on the menu we have you know Venus as the you know they just had their conjunction and so Venus will enter Scorpio and then a couple hours later the sun will enter Scorpio which is a big change pretty big change in tone I think how are you feeling about the Scorpio weather that's October 23rd yeah I love Scorpio.
00:38:58.306 --> 00:39:23.614
Smoke invite someone with Scorpio Stelio but I definitely love the season of Scorpio because it's such an opportunity to you know when I think of the the solar principal in a traditional way we think a lot of the Sun as being so connected to the soul or spirit and in some way it's like thinking about how we kind of build towards that.
00:39:23.862 --> 00:39:43.032
Sense of aliveness and whenever the sun is in that sort of like deep water so Scorpio we get too big really honest you know like we get to kind of figure out in the most honest way how to how to like unpack you know things for ourselves and with Venus's.
00:39:43.092 --> 00:40:04.240
You know like Venus being in this journey with the sun this time again like when we've talked about the significations of Venus like for example just like the relationships you know our relationship to desire our relationship to our sense of creativity.
00:40:04.391 --> 00:40:08.813
Like a lot of like relational themes will go through like this.
00:40:08.963 --> 00:40:17.248
Diving deep moment and I guess for folks who live in the Northern Hemisphere it's just like.
00:40:17.400 --> 00:40:38.036
Added poetry to have like the longest night during you know like less daylight hours more longer nights more Darkness during this time of the year which to me just kind of adds into that sort of like almost a Hermit quality to this time of the year but as usual you know for folks.
00:40:38.168 --> 00:41:12.927
It's always this time of the year that the sun illuminates or highlight this part of your birth chart which is the Scorpio house in your chart so often it's like there's like thematic Focus to this part of the life that the sun highlights and I mean every time planets enter fixed signs we already know you know for since 2020 in a sense that they're having to confront again like the bigger Collective story which we've been talking about between Saturn and Uranus so.
00:41:13.007 --> 00:41:31.445
Yeah but also more to that in a second yeah totally also please I definitely agree I love all the things that you said I definitely think Nina's in the sun entering it'll be a pretty noticeable change in town if you like Scorpio brings a lot of like.
00:41:31.586 --> 00:41:37.954
Tenacity and exertion and like willpower mmm it's like very.
00:41:38.150 --> 00:42:04.746
Hi ninja energy to me like a kind of like needs a challenge or like a difficulty to overcome whether it wants one or not and I think you know Venus doesn't necessarily want that or need that but it just comes with the territory and Scorpio so our relationships and the ways that we're relating we're going to find these you know if we go down deep enough we're going to find something that we're going to have to like work around or work with and we'll find the challenge and.
00:42:05.139 --> 00:42:06.105
I think.
00:42:06.255 --> 00:42:18.905
You know I think also to like Scorpio things they tend to because there's this desire I think an Impulse towards like that exertion that will I'm thinking of my husband was telling me about somebody who was like this guy was like.
00:42:18.911 --> 00:42:27.458
Person to pull some I don't know what he did but I'll make it up it's like pull a sled for like you know ridiculous amount of miles across the Arctic by himself and I'm like.
00:42:27.608 --> 00:42:52.501
Cool but like in my head I'm like why would somebody even care about that like why would we put our why would we voluntarily put ourselves in that situation like needs to be that guy and it's like Scorpio needs to be that guy you know that's like Scorpio wants something that's going to ask for that strength and that strategy that endurance those look in those kind ninja skills and so we may find like in Scorpio those things kind of pivoting.
00:42:52.914 --> 00:43:12.460
More towards like finding a challenge or finding like some kind of like exertion that we might be like proud of once we get through it and feel strong and you know Bruce Lee about it but it may not always be like the most fun trip so you know but it's got something like yeah it's down under there so.
00:43:12.485 --> 00:43:46.965
That's a good point I mean in like the sort of like the traditional scheme like Venus tends to like objectively speaking have a harder time in Scorpio compared to for example it's like home sign in Taurus which yeah like that's a good point it's like Eagle you willingly go through these kinds of trials and tribulations in a way to find like some kind of evidence of your own strength but also I think there's a desire I feel like with Scorpio there's always a desire to overcome something that.
00:43:47.034 --> 00:43:58.291
That's almost consumes and possess you that you kind of want to yeah you want to overcome that and such sort of prove to yourself that you could kind of like face that in a way that's like.
00:43:58.422 --> 00:44:15.971
Yeah this doesn't have to keep me Nothing Gonna Keep Me Down yeah totally and so it does have like that I mean at the end of the day Scorpio is the water you don't like the the night Waters of Mars so it's all about Precision like Mars loves.
00:44:16.032 --> 00:44:25.811
Strike at the heart of the modern and this is what sort of what I was talking about with honesty like sort of a just like raw honesty into you know like.
00:44:25.817 --> 00:44:32.608
Especially in context where there's like conflict or issues or problems.
00:44:32.766 --> 00:44:36.766
I feel like Scorpio season can be really helpful at just like.
00:44:37.025 --> 00:45:50.945
Digging at the truth that maybe you would normally skirt around or like avoid totally it makes me think of you know we talked about going to be like water and like flow around a rock and like we have kind of a relaxing way that we tend to think about it but then we think about like Bruce Lee saying be like water like it means something else and I think the Bruce Lee version is like at the Scorpio and be like water is like it's like oh I'll move around you but it's too late grab your arm into this lock and like flip over whatever like punch you in the feel like there's that Precision that like high-skill that childish things that you were saying and Martian martial artist reference yeah I always think of I always think of Bruce Lee when I get into Scorpio territory because he was just like set the Scorpio in so many ways yeah I mean like Scorpio Waters to me is like very like like you know like deep deep ocean floor where there's actually no sunlight like the sun actually doesn't penetrate there and like the creatures start to look really alien like yeah like not we like I feel like we may be at this is very generalized but it's like we feel I feel like we've really explored the outer space way more than our Ocean Floors to be honest.
00:45:50.996 --> 00:45:59.722
We have actually the creatures you know that lurk in the in that ocean floor that feels very Scorpio which has that theme of like.
00:46:00.043 --> 00:46:34.012
Finding out those leg really dark pockets and like uncovering things so totally and if we think of the sun being like the light you know it's like the length just like if you're in that dark and it's always on what turns the light on here look like what is that like Barracuda looking Dragonfish that's like I didn't realize that that was in the corner oh my God yeah totally oh yeah yeah and kind of similar variation on a theme is we have a partial solar eclipse at 2 degrees of Scorpio and that's happening on October 25th so I think there's a little more.
00:46:34.297 --> 00:46:35.443
You know it's a lot more.
00:46:35.449 --> 00:47:43.914
More of that more of all the things we just said do you want to say anything about the solar eclipse yeah I mean I feel like this is where entering I guess this is what we kept like like like leading towards like the climax of The the months like juicy astrology is that we're entering scarf and likes eclipse eclipse season and I feel like this this Eclipse with Scorpio like this partial solar eclipse would be the first like sort of like new moon eclipse in Scorpio sign because even though we've been experiencing eclipses in the axis of Taurus and Scorpio since about November 20 21 we haven't had like a solar or new moon eclipse Scorpio and it's always so paradoxical because we know that the eclipses that are moving through Scorpio has the quality of the South node and the South node of the Moon which is I just like literally like the South Pole of the Moon symbolically has such a like a purging quality to it.
00:47:44.065 --> 00:48:06.032
So the Paradox the Paradox of like a sort of a solar eclipse or a new moon eclipse is that oh like a the the ending is a beginning is an end you know like that sort of like usually you go out through one door and enter another and so in a way this solar eclipse happening at 2 degrees Scorpio you can imagine.
00:48:06.273 --> 00:48:18.195
In your charts as old there's like a potent beginning happening in this area of your life which is part of that bigger Eclipse story that started in November 20 21.
00:48:18.445 --> 00:48:25.432
Is also signifying some kind of end and you know when I think of the tarot.
00:48:25.818 --> 00:49:46.048
Significations this is like a five of cups moment which shows an image of I guess like grieving loss and accepting laws but also just the reality of that heartbreak so there's something there's there's an element of potency there and it clips moments are often pretty potent you know in terms of how even just energetically feels like it feels like a bigger bigger kind of moment of Reckoning I don't know if you want to add more to that yeah I know I was thinking the word punctuation was coming to mind Mmm Yeah sighs yeah for sure yeah and it definitely needs to know it's we have so we have like the sun and we have the moon and we have Venus now all I kind of piled into Scorpio and neither the Venus nor the moon really like to be there they're not like comfortable there if so because it feels like finding things that feel comfortable might be hard the environment of Scorpio is just so spiky and interesting but also spiky and so in Venus or the moon or sort of those things that can but like to bring us those like Simple Pleasures those Comforts of things that feel nice and those just maybe like a little harder to access like.
00:49:46.360 --> 00:50:06.807
And when you were talking about you know it being on the south node that that energy like releasing or dispersing or casting it to the wind just sort of thinking about that phrase like if you love something you got to let it go and then like maybe I'll so you got to like fight for it and like fight to let it go that's it Scorpio or it's like there's like maybe some wrestling there's some deep work it's very like.
00:50:07.335 --> 00:50:51.431
You were saying earlier kind of like down in the depths of the oceans very under the current and down there you're like you're not getting tossed around by the waves so much but there's also more like pressure down there right you have to hold your breath for longer and there's again there's that more strange creatures as more Darkness it's not comfortable you have to be really that that hyper alert and yeah there may have to be some things that we have to like Wrangle free or sort of like look at that we don't want to in order to let something go in order to walk through a new door or in order to have that new thing yeah and I think the five of cups is such a like sweet reminder to like that grief.
00:50:51.581 --> 00:51:55.878
And grieving is so nonlinear like that experience there's no like set you know like guideposts or like stuff stops of where you're supposed to be within that cycle of grieving and I feel like this moment is really kind of bringing that up like and to bring up Venus's and moons you know mundane objective discomfort in the sign of Scorpio you know that doesn't necessarily translate as anything kind of do me about someone's personal placement if you have yours-- placements but it's just more like like what you said that was so good just like harder to access like the lunar and Venus you know like they're their principle of pleasure and connection and in some ways it happens through like yeah like the very like sharp sharp edge environment that Mars offers in Scorpio so it's like a lot of hard conversations with people you really care about it's like confronting maybe like really difficult like.
00:51:56.021 --> 00:52:10.706
Memories because I sometimes really think of water to as like just like vessels and holders of memory and lineage so there's a lot of like having to integrate maybe like difficult pass into the current moment.
00:52:10.721 --> 00:53:25.802
Yeah and like because this this solar eclipse is kind of drawing you know Venus because they just they just entered this dislike environment so yeah there's some Thai food feel like there would be a lot of like venusian themes like even actually we haven't mentioned like Venus has to having to do with like our sense of beauty and relationship to Beauty you know and desire and desirability there's a lot of that and I feel like I guess like this can bring up maybe like a harsh or like even like the toxic ways be relate to those topics in the way like personally even collectively and how to kind of heal from that and I guess from like a bigger picture thing Des like just the reminder of like the tourist Scorpio batches of eclipses you know like the last time we were having this like access of eclipses like from an inverse nodal perspective was 2012 to 2014 and then even beyond that was 2002 to 2005 which would have been the same nodal Arrangement so.
00:53:25.719 --> 00:53:44.438
You can look back to those times of your life like about nine years ago to see what was going on then to maybe make sense of this current solar eclipse in Scorpio and that's a really good reminder to kind of help self contextualize to yeah it's like what do we.
00:53:44.570 --> 00:54:04.440
Because he's fixed areas to like equipped eclipses how am I want to say that like these fixed areas are areas in life that might be more reluctant to change on their own so like having something like an eclipse like it may feel sort of like we're wrestling an alligator to sort of wrinkle free if a pattern or did get some sort of change but you know.
00:54:04.842 --> 00:54:38.757
It feels like something like this could make that possible even if it's like well you're gonna have to swim down here and like go find that thing and look at that crazy fish and hold your breath a long time you know it's like well I don't want to do that but that's like how you gotta do it to get through the level so yeah it's like the work that's the point of being alive exactly exertion he had there's just moments where you realize Oh No One's Gonna do this work for me and I think it's actually there's no easy shortcut I feel like yeah scorpion knows a lot about how there's no easy shortcut I think that is very true and very wise.
00:54:39.007 --> 00:55:08.177
Next we get to say that you know Jupiter who has been retrograde re-enters Pisces for me that's on October 28th it could also be October 27th depending on your time zone that nighttime and this is sort of the beginning of the end of Jupiter and Pisces it's our last drink of Jupiter and Pisces for 12 years so the third Ingress the third and final reading grasan to Isis how are you thinking about this.
00:55:08.228 --> 00:55:14.612
Final re-entrance yeah I mean I think so far in our conversation October feels like.
00:55:15.088 --> 00:55:34.282
Some kind of you know the liminal terrain where everything is being wrapped up somehow people like a the like the planets going through we're like revolving doors of like departing and arriving so yeah like Jupiter's re-entry into Pisces so it will sort of like go as far back as.
00:55:34.434 --> 00:55:43.510
28 degrees and then sort of go direct again so by December 20 annual reenter your he's I mean I think this is like a moment of.
00:55:44.318 --> 00:55:58.094
You know ritualizing your your gratitude for Jupiter having spent its time in Pisces so in it on a personal level the Pisces area of your chart must have gone through some kind of.
00:55:58.326 --> 00:56:35.373
Growth and expansion but even traditionally Jupiter is about medicine and healing so there's something about that that maybe this this Jupiter Pisces transit in the past year must have been about like finding ways of you know how you've grown since then and how you sort of can integrate maybe some of the sweetness that you put our must have brought up and in a way it's also possible that she put her in didn't necessarily bring like sweetness you know there could have been just like.
00:56:35.396 --> 00:56:43.583
Benevolent truths that you had to like really face that was like also really painful or difficult potentially but I feel like.
00:56:44.155 --> 00:57:39.378
In a way like it liberates you somehow you know like as you move forward so I definitely personally would most likely do some kind of Jupiter veneration to like express some gratitude and that can look a lot different for everyone in terms of like practices but just even like being in a space of gratitude is just like I feel like just like would be really sweet to commemorate the last few weeks of Jupiter being in Pisces yeah I think that's a great recommendation and just thinking about how I relate to Jupiter or have been relating to Jupiter and Pisces is like you know there is things that are expanding the sometimes expanding is hard like if your life grows you have to stretch and stretching his like hard or at least it is for me we're just feels like oh there's too much or there's so much and how do I hold this up or manage it or.
00:57:39.501 --> 00:58:11.597
And I've been thinking about every time Jupiter's kind of popped in and out of Pisces whether it was on the Aquarius side or the Aries side just the sense of like you know is there anything that you're still thirsty for like what is what is waiting for you to drink up do you need to fill up your water bottle before you know you go back to Aries like it's you know it's a really short Journey so Jupiter will leave Pisces again for good I think a couple days before Christmas I think 21st 20th or 21st depending who you are yeah so what's here is there anything still here that you need to sew.
00:58:11.621 --> 00:58:31.231
Is there any unfinished business unfinished gratitude and I don't mean anything you need to soak up in like an extractive way but more just like you know because Jupiter and Pisces is here it just feel so full of receiving to me and it feels very wide open and very mystical and connected to everything that is.
00:58:31.994 --> 00:58:46.184
Widely true or like big picture true and I think if there's any ways that we want to get into that lender have some reminders or mantras or mementos of what that is for us then this could be a good opportunity to do that.
00:58:46.298 --> 00:58:55.969
Yeah beautiful yeah if you like Jupiter's time in Pisces has been really supported supportive of like meaning-making in the face of like.
00:58:56.074 --> 00:59:08.672
Suffering or struggle and I feel like that's such a beautiful thing around what you mentioned with the you know like what you're thirsty for but.
00:59:08.751 --> 00:59:11.463
Like I was thinking also about.
00:59:11.675 --> 00:59:58.608
Jupiter you know like the beautiful thing about astrology is that it just requires contacts all the time so when you said that expansion and growth is not inherently good I think that's such a good I feel like that's such a recommended way of thinking about astrology you know like for example we were talking about just before how Venus in the Moon can have a harder time in Scorpio but that's not inherently bad or do me North is Jupiter rejoicing and being happy in Pisces because it's at home is inherently going to be comfortable and that's where you know it's so much new ones is possible and we're there's like so many of us in this world will have such vastly different experiences but yeah like it's this is definitely the moment of like.
00:59:59.324 --> 01:00:02.965
Wrap up and saying goodbye to Jupiter Pisces and.
01:00:03.304 --> 01:00:24.210
We'll see Jupiter in prices again in 12 years yeah later yeah so you just have to other things to talk about my mom's yeah Mercury I know we made it Mercury is going to enter Scorpio on October 29 and I have some bias towards Mercury in Scorpio I always think of Mercury in Scorpio like.
01:00:24.217 --> 01:00:36.561
Buried under a pile of books just always kind of finding themselves like doing the research and tracing this notes all the way back to the original source and like looking for the liar the outlet has a very like.
01:00:36.748 --> 01:00:44.860
CSI Vibes yeah it's very like so and a spy about everything even if it's not trying to be yeah.
01:00:45.039 --> 01:01:22.931
I love that level of focus like that sort of like rigor of commitment to like just like really like going in search of like the truth yeah and the Precision yeah drawing like the red the red strings from like this point to that point everyone's like how did you get here and here like know if you just read all these things but yeah that's that's that Meme that I'm imagining my head yeah exactly yeah I mean I think like Mercury yeah Mercury Mercury in Scorpio is like.
01:01:23.974 --> 01:01:27.594
Having the sense of sort of like.
01:01:27.773 --> 01:02:02.875
Audacity to uncover things that are maybe like hard to stomach also you know Scorpius really good at that like the hard to stomach kind of content and so there's a little bit of like a cognitive integration with Mercury entering you know I'm joining like Venus in the sun in Scorpio this time around and in a way like I guess this happening I started like yeah like a few days after the solar eclipse that might be really helpful actually in terms of understanding you know what.
01:02:02.980 --> 01:02:35.940
With the solar eclipse could have been about yeah yeah I like that just like maybe even bringing some like pragmatism or just like breaking things down in a week giving language to things that are helpful even though it's you said that language may be something that takes gumption to say or you know it has like I just have another I'm only thinking and memes right now it's like Mercury in Scorpio is like everything is delivered with the middle finger it's just like you know it's like and middle finger yeah totally it has some gumption to it but it can help us maybe break things down and bring some of the.
01:02:36.099 --> 01:02:49.867
Sort of what do we do with this in the I think is really helpful I like video mention that and then I think you know it's even more of note that.
01:02:51.161 --> 01:03:51.677
You know the sun okay so now we have Sun Venus Mercury all in Scorpio which is a Vibe but then now they're all ruled by Mars who is about to sort of get a little hangry and go retrograde and so that sort of all be under Mars is things which lead us to October 30th Square Mars stations retrograde in Gemini and and they'll be retrograde for 74 days so October ends with a bang it does what do you have to say about I mean obviously the whole Mars Transit is a big topic but you know the going retrograde and all of that how are you feeling about oh my gosh I feel like I guess when I was thinking about Mars I mean this is this is something we experience with Mars you know like Mars would retrograde in assign every two years or so so it's you know we we expect it this time line but I guess like in a way because Mars can just have such an agitating influence and like it's like.
01:03:51.701 --> 01:04:03.748
Sandpaper feeling you know like it feels it feels like a little bit like tough sometimes but I guess like Mars in Gemini.
01:04:04.798 --> 01:04:26.496
Thinking of the Scorpio pile up which is also expected you know because usually that's what happens like the inner planets tend to follow the sun depending on where it is that Mars is in not in a major aspect or sort of like we think of us in the version or like the metaphor of driving like in the blind spot.
01:04:26.719 --> 01:04:34.960
Of the Scorpio planets which Mars is responsible for and I guess my name we think of Mars slowing down you know like.
01:04:34.983 --> 01:04:41.530
The significations of Mars like which is about direct action or.
01:04:41.644 --> 01:05:09.132
Sort of like being really deliberate or even like the action of like severing and likes you know taking things apart particularly in the sign of Gemini there's like a very cognitive intellectual quality to that process as well perhaps you know those things are kind of needing to slow down or you know there's there's any two.
01:05:09.579 --> 01:05:16.963
Take a step back I suppose in terms of what Mars in Gemini has been about likes at least since Lee.
01:05:16.996 --> 01:05:35.050
Around August end of August when you enter this area of your chart and this is retrograde Romans are always a time of review and reassessment and just reflection but yes Mars is I guess going from 25 degrees.
01:05:35.146 --> 01:05:54.782
All the way back to 8 degrees it's like oh wow yeah it's just like going to go all the way back to almost the beginning of Gemini until he had January 11 2023 so we have that retrograde Mars for some time yeah and it feels like you know we have the Venus Sun Mercury in Scorpio.
01:05:55.130 --> 01:06:25.452
Not really able to see their ruler Mars who's now going it's like okay well if we can't see then maybe we should be slowing down because we can't see right now we can't see far I guess and yeah that retrograde and Mars were to like ping-pong in between the u.s. natal Uranus and the u.s. naval Mars This retrograde which is interesting is a nice way to say I think so yeah I just think you know how do we.
01:06:26.143 --> 01:06:48.940
How do we Channel our direct action when we are feeling aggregate aggravated or when we're feeling angsty like what do we how do we disperse our energy in a way that's effective and like you know still brings courage but doesn't necessarily have to be dispersed to the point of violence like I thinking I'm thinking about it I'm like a personal level like how we can kind of reckon with that energy or integrate that energy that maybe.
01:06:49.487 --> 01:06:58.202
This retrograde might bring up some of those things yeah and I guess like when you kind of delineate Mars in Gemini Mars in Gemini.
01:06:58.210 --> 01:07:03.668
Can be quite a trickster energy you know like sort of like have this Vibe of like.
01:07:04.340 --> 01:07:26.264
Can be really confident on what they say and appear like they know what they're talking about but then it's like do you really you know there's that there's that kind of a person Gemini so it's like this retrograde is a bit of a and opportunity to kind of just be like okay what are you really saying you know and what are you know like.
01:07:26.351 --> 01:07:37.047
When I think of Gemini as the sign of mercury and you know so that's an interesting actually like some kind of a mutual reception between Mars and Mercury at this this month.
01:07:37.226 --> 01:07:39.704
Is to like okay what.
01:07:39.844 --> 01:07:49.480
All of all the information you have been Gathering like Mars have been Gathering you know what is what is going to stick you know like the retrograde period is like.
01:07:49.559 --> 01:08:18.395
A bit of like filtering through maybe like the excessive noise for this time and seeing what you read what do you truly really kind of like want to move forward because at the end of the day I feel like the bigger picture of the Mars transit in your Gemini house would be like Mars is like mobilising things you know in this in the next seven months there you know like things are going to be moving around and you know like.
01:08:18.851 --> 01:08:36.615
Things need to kind of move forward because that's Mars Mars like wants to move things along and so this retrograde is actually a good time to kind of like step back and we regroup so yeah no I like all of that you how do you back it up.
01:08:36.730 --> 01:08:47.949
Like you just say things like how do you back it up Mercury Antonio back there like doing all the research and yeah yeah it's a lot of movement in a sign that already.
01:08:48.064 --> 01:08:57.484
Likes a lot of movement so a lot of things are cooking and moving in that so I'm sure so you know it makes me think to love like you know for.
01:08:57.814 --> 01:09:04.569
For example people who love to study or love to learn you know sometimes like.
01:09:04.809 --> 01:09:11.877
Part of part of like imposter syndrome for example is like I'm going to take another course.
01:09:12.226 --> 01:09:50.533
To help me feel more like an expert or like to make me feel a lot more capable and I feel like so this is just like context exam example but the Mars retrograde you know we can be like maybe you don't need to take another yet another course like this is maybe a time to have that the things you've been learning and embody them somehow and not just like add more things to your own sort of like I'm data to feel like you have everything you need in order to function so there's something about that like you know that sort of like.
01:09:50.738 --> 01:09:56.961
Vibe that I'm imagining this Mars retrograde so I love that like what do you do with what you already have.
01:09:57.094 --> 01:10:00.939
Yeah I love her.
01:10:00.947 --> 01:10:32.926
Well that's been quite an eventful month I feel like we just kind of went through it again is there anything that you would like to say in closing before you tell us all your dates and where people can find you and learn more about what you got going on yeah it's I was seeing how like in our conversation it didn't quite land when we were preparing for this episode but in our conversation yeah just like kind of realizing how October feels like such a.
01:10:33.238 --> 01:10:41.631
Liminal space you know in this slice of time of 2022 where there's a lot of like.
01:10:41.943 --> 01:10:53.279
Yeah paradoxical loops and we talked about wormholes and different depths different gravitational you know like energy just I feel like.
01:10:53.367 --> 01:10:55.917
If folks are feeling like.
01:10:56.238 --> 01:11:10.266
Especially because we started the money like a Mercury Direct so if folks feel like oh yes all things go and then you start to feel like actually not you know this might be just like allow yourself the space to really.
01:11:10.363 --> 01:11:18.296
Slow down and also that even with all this intensity.
01:11:18.618 --> 01:12:06.027
You don't necessarily have to personally identify with intensity either right like I guess the way we talk about astrological weather is that at times it's just like on a very objective level it might not meekly translate to a personal experience but you can definitely kind of like investigate board that could be happening for you in detail but yeah October as a month feels totally liminal as like this ending beginning ending add Infinity's yeah the revolving door fell image that I liked it's like a it's like a Union Station like in like a transportation system where all the trains converge and depart in all their finding directions.
01:12:06.277 --> 01:12:15.884
Where can people find out more about you find out about your work if you have anything coming up that you'd like people to know about would you mind sharing it with us.
01:12:16.052 --> 01:12:28.208
Oh yes so you can find me in the digisphere the digital world that we all live in and frequent I am at charm astrology.com.
01:12:28.439 --> 01:12:35.023
And when it comes to social media I'm only on Instagram so at charm astrology.
01:12:35.390 --> 01:12:58.979
In terms of what's coming up I feel like I haven't been laying low a lot in 2022 actually and it feels really good it feels feels really good to sort of be a little bit more sort of invisible in that sense like digitally at least but I have been kind of gearing up and wanting to do small group unrecorded.
01:12:59.390 --> 01:13:22.979
Sessions of like learning and Gathering sessions that talk about things like the Mars retrograde or you know the eclipse season or even just like eventually like Saturn going into Pisces so on my website people can sign up for my newsletter because that will be like the first place where I'll announce a sign up so that would be me kind of like stretching.
01:13:23.110 --> 01:13:26.641
Myself to in like sort of experimenting.
01:13:26.873 --> 01:13:51.948
Facilitating groups which I have had many years of experience in other contexts outside of astrology but this would ultimately be I in a way like my first time doing it on my own so as you know you do those things there's a lot of work involved and in facilitation and just like group teaching and Gathering so I'm kind of excited to do a bit of that and.
01:13:52.323 --> 01:14:19.594
My intention to do it in like a small space and it being unrecorded is I would really ideally love to meet people who sort of like kind of intentionally set aside the time to be present in that kind of space which you know is very hard but me personally I tend to you know kind of before like pile up on horses like passively and then sort of I feel like it has a different quality when you sort of.
01:14:19.734 --> 01:14:38.435
Going to enter a space like live so that's what's coming up for me that's it and I do do consultation and still so that's that's still like the love the labor of love of astrology seeing people 101 so people can definitely see me for consultation this all on my website.
01:14:38.720 --> 01:14:51.524
