00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:07.360
Astrology isn't just about signs and symbols.
00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:10.000
It's a tool for navigating real life.
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:13.039
Hello, and welcome to Astrology with Alisa.
00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:17.440
I'm your host, Alisa Dixon, and I'm so glad you're here.
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:18.879
Let's dive in.
00:00:18.879 --> 00:00:22.559
Today I'm sharing another conversation from Norwac.
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:28.160
And this one is with someone I've looked up to for years, Judith Hill.
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:37.280
Judith is an internationally recognized astrologer, an award-winning author, and one of the leading voices in medical astrology.
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:42.000
She's also the founder of the Academy for Astrological Medicine.
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:54.960
And one quick note Judith's Academy for Astrological Medicine is hosting its annual herbalism and medical astrology summit this Friday and Saturday, October 16th and 17th.
00:00:54.960 --> 00:01:01.039
And Judith has generously offered my listeners 20% off a weekend pass.
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:05.439
So I'll leave the link and discount code in the show notes.
00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:10.640
And I also have a video version of this conversation over on my YouTube channel.
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:14.959
So if you'd rather watch than listen, I'll leave that link for you as well.
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:15.840
All right.
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:18.959
I hope you enjoy my conversation with Judith.
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:21.760
Alright, well, hello.
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:27.280
My name is Elisa Dixon, and I am at Norwac sitting with the legendary Judith Hill.
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:28.079
Hi, Judith.
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:30.480
It's so nice to have you here with me today.
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:31.680
Hi, Elisa.
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.280
This is very lovely to do this for you at Norwak.
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:37.280
Oh my gosh, I'm so excited.
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:43.599
Alright, so I am very passionate about talking about how astrology shows up in real life.
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:45.840
That's what I do all the time on my podcast.
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.359
I tell stories about how it's showing up in day-to-day life.
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:53.920
Um, so that is what I thought I would flavor our questions with.
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:58.959
So, how do you personally use astrology in your everyday life?
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:01.760
That's just an excellent question.
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:14.879
And uh I use it in many, many ways, such as if I want to get a haircut or a dental appointment or make a major purchase or have a party.
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:22.879
Uh these are all excellent uses, and it's also great for picking a time to send in your taxes.
00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:27.840
Yes, when so when would you choose to send in your taxes?
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:32.560
I usually do this for other clients, but it depends on what their need is.
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:36.240
If they don't want to get noticed, you just use Neptune.
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.360
Oh okay.
00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:44.319
I've been told to always try to do it on a void of course moon with positive closing aspects.
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:45.360
I I agree.
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:47.439
But also involve Neptune.
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:48.000
Yes.
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:50.719
Okay, does Neptune need to be doing anything in particular?
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:55.280
Well, getting Neptune right on an angle does take some skill.
00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:05.120
Exactly rising or exactly setting, setting or on mid-heaven perfect, uh because the setting is where it's going, who's opening and the tenth house is judgment.
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:14.400
So if you get Neptune like setting exactly, and the moon making a lovely aspect to Neptune or conjunct Neptune, very, very nice.
00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:18.719
But now we have a problem because now Neptune is conjunct Saturn, so you don't want to use it anymore.
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:24.000
We have to wait till Saturn gets out of Aries to now to now use the Neptune formula.
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:27.759
So for the next two years, do not use Neptune to file taxes.
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:30.960
Now now my CPA doesn't let me time things anymore.
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:36.719
He just sends them whatever he wants, but I used to have clients that they say, can you just give me a time so I won't be audited?
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:38.000
You know, okay, try this.
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:39.919
And we had fantastic results.
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:41.680
Oh my gosh, I love it.
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:44.719
Okay, so what about when to have a party then?
00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:45.520
What you mentioned.
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:46.800
Well, party's a good one.
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:52.560
Uh pick a fire sign moon or a uh it depends on air sign moons are good too.
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:53.039
Okay.
00:03:53.039 --> 00:04:03.680
Fire sign moons if you want dancing and laughing and people drink heavier though, especially Moon Mars, and um moon on Mars and a fire sign.
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:09.599
But uh white, of course, moons are nice because nobody has anywhere to go and they're hanging loose.
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:14.000
And Libra moons can be very nice because people want to socialize.
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:17.439
Uh Gemini moons, people are very chatty, want to socialize.
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:23.360
Uh Aquarian moons are not quite as good because they're they're good, they're good for like company uh you know stuff.
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:23.920
The business.
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:25.199
They're a little Saturnian.
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.920
People often want to be home or just diffusing or up by the beach.
00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:29.759
Uh Aquarius moon, curiously.
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:34.319
But so, but um Aries, Sag, and particularly Leo.
00:04:34.319 -->

00:04:38.000
Love to party, but again, don't use Aries right now.
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:41.279
Because Saturn's there, which is a is a wet blanket.
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:42.160
It's a Downer.
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:43.519
It's Debbie Downer.
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:45.519
Okay.
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:47.680
And then what was the other thing you said?
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:48.720
I think a hair appointment.
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:49.199
Is that what you're talking about?
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:50.319
Oh, it's for hair, yeah.
00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:52.319
Well, this depends a lot on your natal chart.
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:53.600
So, oh, two things.
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:57.680
Um, now I use your natal chart too, but you know, when you're doing parties, you're dealing with groups.
00:04:57.680 --> 00:04:58.079
Yes.
00:04:58.079 --> 00:04:59.680
Transits are more important.
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:03.439
So in personal matters, personal chart becomes more important.
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:05.759
The transit chart secondly.
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:06.079
Oh.
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:15.040
So like if if you were uh making uh planning and uh to go to the airport, the group zeitgeist is much more important.
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:21.680
But if you were traveling alone in a helicopter, your own chart becomes more you use both, always.
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:24.000
Always sometimes one gets the weight.
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:37.360
So for a personal haircut, you want your Venus to be getting really nice aspect from the moon, or the moon conjuncted, as long as you don't have nasal Venus on the South Node or something.
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:40.800
And you Mars is this the knife, scissors.
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:41.279
Yeah.
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:45.439
So you want the scissors to be lined up nice to Venus, Mars.
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:45.759
Okay.
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:50.240
Transit Mars, nice aspect to Venus, not a bad one.
00:05:50.240 --> 00:06:01.600
And if you're having a major long-term transit, like Saturn or South Node over Venus, you may have a long-term bad hair day.
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:01.839
Oh.
00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:06.399
Might go on months, but you still can get a better time.
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:10.000
And certain signs are a lot better for haircuts than others.
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:11.279
Okay, I love it.
00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:13.120
What are the best signs for haircuts?
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:14.800
Well, it depends on what you want.
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:15.199
Okay.
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:17.759
You want your hair to really spring up.
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:19.839
Like some people want their hair standing straight up.
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:20.240
Uh-huh.
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:22.399
Um, Aries Moon is probably the best.
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:22.959
Okay.
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:24.240
Leo Moon does well.
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:27.439
Aries uh Leo is very nice for nice coloring.
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:27.920
Okay.
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:28.560
Makes sense.
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:36.800
And uh if you want your hair uh really beautiful and soft, Libra or Taurus Moon are wonderful.
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:40.639
For color staying, colors, uh, Taurus is excellent, fixed sign.
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:44.800
Do not have haircuts on Gemini, especially Aquarius moons.
00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:45.360
Okay.
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.000
These are very electrical forces are stronger.
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:48.240
Oh.
00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:50.639
And here will get frizzy or not do what you want.
00:06:50.639 --> 00:07:02.399
You'll have really strange results cutting your hair on uh particularly Aquarius, but also uh Gemini, or if the moon is conjunct or squaring Uranus.
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:02.639
Okay.
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:03.920
Too much electrical.
00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:07.120
And so the hair is like an antenna.
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:07.519
Yeah.
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:09.360
Very s I've been watching it for years.
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:11.600
It's very sensitive to the moon's motions.
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:12.639
Wow.
00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:14.240
That's interesting.
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.240
I've never thought to pay attention to that.
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:17.680
I am absolutely going to now.
00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:19.600
Well, yeah, a lot of people use moon phase.
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:25.759
Uh like uh some people think if the moon is waxing, you'll get better growth and thicker hair.
00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:26.160
Okay.
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:29.839
Unwanted hair, uh, the moon waning.
00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:33.680
But I found the moon sign will dominate moon phase?
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:34.399
Yes.
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:35.199
Wow.
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:36.240
Interesting.
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:37.439
Well, that's cool.
00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:39.040
Great little tidbits.
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:39.360
Yes.
00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:39.680
Yeah.
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:45.920
Well, I used to be, I'm not just a medical astrologer, I used to spend many years doing electional and vocational.
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:48.720
I'm a very practical astrologer.
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:49.680
Yes, you are.
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:52.480
And that's exactly what I try to be as well.
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:53.360
I love.
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:54.800
Oh, that's so cool.
00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.279
Okay, so second question.
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:00.959
Which planet has caused the most chaos in your life?
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.920
Oh, that's an interesting one.
00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:06.160
That's an interesting one.
00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:11.120
I would probably say that's a hard one.
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:13.439
I would probably say Mars.
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:14.079
Okay.
00:08:14.079 --> 00:08:16.160
Yeah, but I'm wondering if I'm right.
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.079
I mean, Saturn has had his day.
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:19.279
Yes.
00:08:19.279 -->
00:08:21.519
Saturn has been a good one.
00:08:21.519 --> 00:08:23.839
Um, Mars has been a good one.
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:27.680
Um I'd say there there isn't one for me.
00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:30.079
It's it's varies quite a bit.
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:30.720
Okay.
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.679
So, like what kinds of problems has Mars created?
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:34.879
More of the data.
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:50.559
People blowing up, uh storming around, uh things like that neighbor noise, dogs barking, uh, you know, just oh construction, people cutting down trees in the neighborhood, things that shock me that I don't like.
00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:51.440
Got it.
00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:51.919
Yeah.
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:54.799
And then Saturn, what kind of problems is Saturn just?
00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:56.799
Well, this gets personal, okay.
00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:02.080
People's deaths, and abandonment's long-term suffering.
00:09:02.639 --> 00:09:03.039
You know.
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:03.919
Fair.
00:09:04.159 --> 00:09:04.480
Yeah.
00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:06.159
Yep, that makes sense.
00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:06.799
Okay.
00:09:06.799 --> 00:09:08.399
All right.
00:09:08.399 --> 00:09:13.919
So, what's your favorite astrology topic to talk about lately?
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:18.799
Oh, I love Neptune, and and that's the one I just didn't talk on.
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:22.960
I knew you were gonna say that because when I saw you earlier, you were so excited about this lecture.
00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:24.080
I just love Neptune.
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:25.120
That's my favorite planet.
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:25.600
Is it?
00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:27.919
What is it about Neptune that you love so much?
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.440
Well, it's very beautiful.
00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:31.600
It's a beautiful looking planet.
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.399
But for me, it's been a real friend.
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.120
You know, Neptune for some people is very lucky.
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:37.759
Really?
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:46.960
Yeah, it's a very it's a for some people it brings all kinds of doors opening and interesting, wonderful things and wonderful times by the beach.
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.960
Little little paradises away from the earth for a while.
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:51.840
Yeah.
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:58.799
And uh lucky breaks, and for some people it works very differently, but it works well for me.
00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:04.720
And it also I love music so much, so it it it's my musical plan.
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:09.200
I I blame my musical gifts on Neptune in my chart.
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:14.879
And it I love poetry, I love the sublime, I love fairies, I love everything Neptunian.
00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:15.759
I love the ocean.
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:16.960
I love the ocean too.
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:22.559
I love all the paintings of Neptune with his trident and mermaids and mermen.
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:24.399
It's just
enchants.
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:26.799
That's beautiful.
00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:32.399
I I love Neptune as well, but I struggle to understand it, not surprisingly, right?
00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:36.639
Because it's it's not a planet of understanding, it's feeling.
00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:37.519
Yeah.
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:42.960
So I that's that's very interesting and intriguing that you love it so much the way you describe it.
00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:44.559
I do, I do.
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:47.039
And uh really really much.
00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:50.799
My Neptune is in my 12th house in Sagittarius.
00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:53.759
So that's that's lovely.
00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:54.159
Yeah.
00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:56.559
Might give you some prophetic abilities.
00:10:56.559 --> 00:10:57.519
Cool.
00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:05.759
Neptune opens the psychic door, so does the 12th house, and Sagittarius is a sign given to being able to see into the future.
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:06.879
I love that.
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:08.720
So your your intuitions.
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:15.360
I do have strong intuition that I do uh I've been working hard to try to trust more and open up a little bit more.
00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:17.440
Yeah, your intuitions would be very good.
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:18.320
I love that.
00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:20.000
And my Mercury's in Pisces.
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:21.279
Oh, well they're even better.
00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:24.000
So they're it's uh doubling that trait.
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:24.480
Yeah.
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:26.559
Are you a good animal communicator?
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:26.799
Yeah.
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:27.919
You know, I don't know.
00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:30.000
I I you know it's interesting.
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.120
I grew up in Connecticut in the middle of the woods.
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:39.519
I lived on a property that had 28 acres, and it was also right up against a hundred acres of of hiking trails.
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:48.799
And so I truly lived in the middle of the woods, and I remember as a child, I I spent a lot of time out in nature, and I would try to sneak up and and see how close I could get to the deer.
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.159
You know, so I I don't know, maybe I was communing with animals.
00:11:52.559 --> 00:12:00.320
I asked you that because I knew three professional people who professed to be animal communicators, and all of them had work green in Pisces.
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:00.720
Really?
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:02.799
A sign that breaks boundaries.
00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:05.279
So I thought that was fascinating.
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:06.480
Yeah, I don't know.
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:07.759
Maybe I'll try.
00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:10.399
Oh my gosh.
00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:12.639
Well, those were my three questions, Judith.
00:12:12.639 --> 00:12:15.759
Is there anything else that you would like to share?
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:23.840
I'm just having such a wonderful time
here at Norwac, and I just put out a brand new book on not medical.
00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:27.360
I have like six books on medical, on sinistry.
00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:35.279
Oh yes, I'm very excited about it, and I illustrated it all with my own whimsical drawings, but it's a very deep, deep book.
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:36.960
There's nothing fluffy.
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:42.000
It's just for astrologers, and that's why it's called the Astrologers Love Book.
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:46.159
A complete method of compatibility assessment.
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:47.679
Oh, I love that.
00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:49.200
I will is it out yet?
00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:49.759
It's out.
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:53.200
We just had our debut signing just before this interview.
00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:54.080
Oh, how great.
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:57.279
Oh, so I can go pick it up if there's any copies left.
00:12:57.279 --> 00:12:59.759
There's one copy left, two copies in my room.
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:01.440
There might be one copy left at the store.
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:02.799
Okay, I'll go check it out.
00:13:02.799 --> 00:13:07.759
Yeah, if you want me to reserve I have one two copies left in my room, I can reserve one for you if you want it.
00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:08.720
Oh, that's awesome.
00:13:08.720 --> 00:13:09.840
Oh, thank you so much.
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:19.360
Well, and I actually I now it makes so much sense all of you, all of the things you said about Neptune and how much you love it, the fact that you do all of your own illustrations in all of your books.
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:23.759
I do, and I I actually studied fairy tale illustration when I was young.
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:29.200
And I wanted to be a fairy tale illustrator, but there's no not much career, not much career in that.
00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:36.080
So I I kept a skill, and there's some there's many illustrations in there that have that quality.
00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:40.720
I you know what, I will look at them differently now with the I I actually I do.
00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:46.960
I some of them look almost like um like the sorcerer's apprentice, right?
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:48.080
I mean I've seen yeah.
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.159
There's there's one illustration in the chapter called the internal partner.
00:13:52.159 --> 00:13:57.360
Because everybody has an internal partner that is embedded in the chart.
00:13:57.360 --> 00:13:57.919
Okay.
00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:06.879
And this can be the prophesied partner, you know, you're going to meet somebody and they're they're shown in the chart, or it can be just who you're naturally attracted to.
00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:07.120
Yeah.
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:13.120
So in that chapter, there's a very illustration right out of the pink fairy book.
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:14.399
Oh, I love it.
00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:16.000
Oh, that's special.
00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:16.879
So cool.
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.159
So I really enjoyed that.
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.159
So that that was my uh fun project.
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:24.320
I did it, I did it for me, but my director of my school really wanted me to do it.
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:25.200
I was never going to.
00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:29.840
And she says, You gotta do this, because I kept telling her about her dates and it kept coming true.
00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:30.159
Ah.
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:31.840
She says, This is a really good system.
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:33.279
It's a unique system I put it together.
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:34.080
Oh, how cool.
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:35.919
I've been an astrologer for many, many decades.
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:36.159
Yes.
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:44.320
And I used to spend uh many, many years seeing every possible kind of client in inner city offices.
00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:52.799
You know, everybody from the red light district to the halls of industry would come for readings, and they all wanted to know about their partners, their love lives.
00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:54.960
And so I would always I learned to do that.
00:14:54.960 --> 00:15:00.240
And then for an experiment, I worked for a year for a high-end dating service once.
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:01.039
Oh my gosh.
00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:05.679
And out of me, I'd get sets of ladies.
00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:07.440
So I was, you know, able to experiment.
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:16.240
I learned a a lot, and then I did used to pick lawyers for people, used to pick surgeons, used to pick um dogs and horses.
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:16.879
Oh my god.
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:22.480
Then I helped people with adoptions when they had a choice of adopting children by birthday.
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.480
I I even did realtors.
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:26.799
And so I learned oh, and employees.
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:35.840
I did employees a lot, and business partners, and so I learned about every aspect of compatibility assessment and what is strongest.
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:50.720
So I have a system of um I have the uh the six main essentials that are really important, and then I had four more high-ranking essentials, and then I have the essential disharmonies.
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:52.720
Oh the deal breakers.
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:53.200
Yes.
00:15:53.200 --> 00:16:01.200
And and how you can look around them, you know, you know, things, the things that usually really bother relationships.
00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:02.240
Of all kinds.
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:06.960
So I'm not trying to become come into the you know, love and sacks market.
00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:11.600
No, I just wrote a book to really help the astrologers in their work.
00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:17.679
Yeah, that's so helpful because there are so many nuances with that line of officer.
00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:19.919
Yes, and I wanted to make it as beautiful as possible.
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:29.440
So we worked really hard on the mauve and green cover with the beautiful old
painting by um Auguste Pierre Cote from another century.
00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:31.840
It's just a beautiful cover, so we're we're happy.
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:34.960
I will definitely have to go see if I can get that copy.
00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:37.039
Well, thank you so much, Judith.
00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:39.120
I really appreciate you sitting down with me.
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:41.679
I know that you've got so much going on while you're here.
00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:42.559
Oh, yeah.
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:47.120
This is my people are here, my people I want to meet are here.
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:47.840
It's been wonderful.
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:49.200
Who do you want to meet?
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:55.759
Well, I would really like to meet someone who just parted.
00:16:55.759 --> 00:16:58.320
I would love to meet Jane Goodall.
00:16:58.320 --> 00:17:06.720
And I would love to meet Joan Bayaz, who's an old heroine of mine, and I doubt I ever will be able to do that.
00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:10.160
It would be lovely to have tea with her when thank her for her work.
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:11.359
But they're not astrologers.
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:11.599
No.
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:15.519
But the astrologers, oh, Ivy Goldstein Jacobson.
00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:17.279
Again, she's gone.
00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:20.799
I'd probably like to meet Alan Ellen us.
00:17:20.799 --> 00:17:21.359
He's around.
00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:23.359
I don't he's he's Yes, I met him.
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:25.440
I've never been able to meet him, but he's here somewhere.
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:26.160
He is here.
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:31.039
He's got a table right outside the um right outside the room where you were lecturing, I believe.
00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:32.000
The table?
00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:33.119
Yeah, he's got a table.
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:33.680
He's selling books.
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:34.480
Oh, I didn't know that.
00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:34.799
Yeah.
00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:37.839
I'll have to go say Yeah, the night light astrology table.
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:38.400
He's there.
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:42.559
I in fact I interviewed him earlier today just impromptu, like this.
00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:43.839
Oh, we'll have to go say hello.
00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:44.960
Yeah, I had no idea.
00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:48.240
He's leading, um, he's leading something tonight at 9 p.m.
00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:51.279
Well, I would like to meet him.
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:51.839
Yeah.
00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:55.119
And I'm sure there's several other astrologers I would like to meet.
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:57.440
You know, we get so busy we can barely look at the schedule.
00:17:57.440 --> 00:17:58.000
I know.
00:17:58.000 --> 00:17:59.599
And I haven't seen a talk yet.
00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:01.039
Running crazy.
00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:02.799
Well, maybe you can tomorrow.
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:04.960
Maybe tomorrow, but I'll probably have to rest tomorrow.
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:05.279
Yeah.
00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:06.480
For the big workshop.
00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:08.480
So I would like to see at least one.
00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:08.880
Yeah.
00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:11.519
And uh I usually get can guess get in one or two.
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:12.079
Yeah.
00:18:12.079 --> 00:18:17.279
But usually some young people come up and want to talk and welcome me, and that's what I love to do.
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:18.000
Oh, good.
00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:19.119
Well, like this.
00:18:19.119 --> 00:18:29.599
So I I love to I love to help the young astrologers, you know, because they get a big chance here, and I I love to you know help them, encourage them.
00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:30.079
Yes.
00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:31.440
It's a wonderful career.
00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:34.480
What's the best piece of advice you could give me?
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:36.880
Are you a practicing astrologer?
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:37.440
Okay.
00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:52.319
I would say learn your energy boundaries, learn to refuel your battery, learn not to take too many and know how to rest between them and how to protect yourself psychically.
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:54.720
And I have actually have a whole course on this.
00:18:54.720 --> 00:19:04.079
But but uh these are very essential astrologers who do not learn these things usually come back to me in a year and say, I'm all burned out.
00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:04.720
Depleted.
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:06.000
How do you do this?
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:07.119
I'm all burned out.
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:11.839
And I was like, Well, you uh ask them what they're doing, and they're usually running back-to-back readings for one.
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:13.599
Do not do back-to-back readings.
00:19:13.599 --> 00:19:19.359
You need complete refueling your battery between do not do many things.
00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:23.759
You know the you need the don'ts and you need the does, you need good office feng shui.
00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:33.279
You need to know how to psychically protect yourself and who not to take, and who to take, and uh specialize.
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:37.200
I I end up specializing in medical and vocational and election.
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:40.720
If you specialize, get really so know everything about everything.
00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:44.240
Yeah, really learn astrology, really, really learn it.
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:54.880
And then when you really learn it, and you've had a f maybe two years really just doing charts, all kinds of charts, then figure out what you're best at.
00:19:54.880 --> 00:20:09.200
There's room in every of these specialties, like go vocational, or you go location, or you go medical, or you go whatever, natal, transit, evolutionary, whatever you want to do.
00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:18.319
And get then you advertise yourself as a specialist, and uh you will really start getting a big client.
00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:22.480
Everybody's looking for
people who can do surgery dates.
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:25.680
I only know two people I would recommend.
00:20:25.680 --> 00:20:29.599
And I train them, I've edited them, I tested them.
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:36.480
And uh it's a very, very that's uh that's the takes the most skill of anything in astrology is surgery dating.
00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:39.519
You have to know what you're doing, and you have to know how to proceed legally.
00:20:39.519 --> 00:20:42.880
The other piece of advice is know how to proceed legally.
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:47.039
When to have a disclaimer, when to have a waiver.
00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:52.559
You don't need it for a natal reading, but some kinds of readings you do.
00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:56.799
And but there's there's side businesses you can run, you know.
00:20:56.799 --> 00:21:01.519
Astrocartography, you can make a full living just at that.
00:21:01.519 --> 00:21:02.240
Yes.
00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:05.680
But people are always looking for someone who's really good.
00:21:05.680 --> 00:21:12.640
So my advice is to be really good and don't think you're really good in one year.
00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:13.279
Right.
00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:18.640
Become really skilled craftsmen, just like if you had to learn to make shoes.
00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:20.079
You want to be really good.
00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:27.039
You want to repair bicycles, you want to be really good, be really good, and then go forth and do good works.
00:21:27.039 --> 00:21:29.279
Don't do this for money and fame.
00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:29.920
Right.
00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:31.839
Let money and fame come to you.
00:21:31.839 --> 00:21:32.799
Yes.
00:21:32.799 --> 00:21:40.319
You know, I worked in this for four or five decades before I even got noticed.
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:44.319
I just worked quietly, wrote books quietly.
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:47.440
One day I got invited to Norwak.
00:21:47.440 --> 00:21:50.240
And many things started happening.
00:21:50.240 --> 00:21:54.880
And you do it for the good of mankind and 'cause you love it.
00:21:54.880 --> 00:21:55.599
Yes.
00:21:55.599 --> 00:21:59.759
And yes, it's a a nice way to make a living if you know how to watch your energetic.
00:21:59.759 --> 00:22:02.799
Boundaries and you don't burn out in one year, which most people do.
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:07.119
Which must you're Yeah, and not everybody is suited to being an astrologer.
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:12.640
So if you find that you're actually better at uh being an accountant or something, you try it, you don't like it.
00:22:12.640 --> 00:22:19.440
Then just like they used to say on you know American Idol, you know, he was very honest with people, you know, you sound like a squalling cat.
00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:21.359
This isn't the field for you.
00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:25.359
You also you need a certain amount of wisdom.
00:22:25.359 --> 00:22:28.799
So you will, if you can start in your twenties, I started at 14.
00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:31.440
Um Yeah, didn't you wasn't your father taught you?
00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:36.480
He started teaching me when I was started showing me charts when I was three, but formerly teaching me at 10.
00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:36.799
Wow.
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:39.519
And I was giving my first paid readings at 14.
00:22:39.519 --> 00:22:42.319
So I had a four-year apprenticeship.
00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:43.920
And I was unusual kid though.
00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:52.079
I was the I would take a bus downtown, all the way downtown alone in the inner city, and go to Fritzy Armstrong.
00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:57.759
Fritzy Armstrong's um metaphysical town hall bookshop.
00:22:57.759 --> 00:22:59.119
I just love that name.
00:22:59.119 --> 00:23:03.920
And I would be in there all day looking at everything in there, and no other children in there.
00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:04.559
I'm 10.
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:07.519
Just take a bus home, laddie di, laddie da, go home to dinner.
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:09.359
So I was a very unusual kid.
00:23:09.359 --> 00:23:10.000
Yeah.
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:20.640
But uh you'll find if you start in your twenties and you keep at it, you know, by the time you're 30 and 40, you will become very good.
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:24.160
And by the time you're 50, you're probably a master.
00:23:24.160 --> 00:23:27.759
And this takes something, but you're not gonna be a master in one year.
00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:33.039
You can read a decent chart one or two years, but it but you're gonna get a lot better.
00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:38.160
But keep if you have a deep concern, now this is very important, I'll end with this.
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:52.480
If you have a very deep concern for the improvement and the evolution of your client, bringing out knowledge they need, say for their career, for their self.
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:57.119
Just that concern ignites the best in them.
00:23:57.119 --> 00:24:06.720
And even if you gave a bad reading, the concern for their soul is what they remember, and it will help them.
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:08.400
I learned this.
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:14.480
It took me years to figure out that some of the good that was happening with the clients was that I had this feeling for them.
00:24:14.480 --> 00:24:17.279
And just last week I read another astrologer.
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:19.440
He says this, Elman Bacher.
00:24:19.440 --> 00:24:33.920
I find this tiny little pamphlet and I open it up, and he said, the concern for the the client's higher evolution and the bringing out of their best in their career will ignite that in them.
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:34.960
Wow.
00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:38.799
And they'll walk away with that, and over time it can become true.
00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:45.039
What is the gift you give them, even if you had no talent as an astrologer?
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:46.799
So I I will leave with that.
00:24:46.799 --> 00:24:50.079
So I always say to people, go forth and do good works, but I mean it.
00:24:50.079 --> 00:24:50.799
I mean it.
00:24:50.799 --> 00:25:02.160
You don't do this for money or fame, you do it because you you have a natural affinity and a love of it, and you have this desire to help that client.
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:07.200
And this is a special and usual field.
00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:10.079
It is a special and unusual field, that's for sure.
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:11.680
A bit of a spiritual field.
00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:12.640
Very much so.
00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:13.519
Yeah.
00:25:13.839 --> 00:25:15.039
Well, thank you so much.
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:16.559
Pearls of wisdom.
00:25:16.559 --> 00:25:18.640
Well, you're welcome, Alisa.
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:20.160
It's it's been a pleasure.
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:22.000
Thank you so much, Judith.
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:23.119
Take care.
00:25:23.119 --> 00:25:24.400
Thank you.
