Laughter. 00:06:16.809 --> 00:06:20.879 The whole thing is beautiful and magical and messy and chaotic. 00:06:21.180 --> 00:06:23.382 And what a gift to be alive. 00:06:23.382 --> 00:06:25.384 Am I right or am I right? 00:06:26.619 --> 00:06:32.425 So, okay, it's time to get into this content because I'm just off the walls with excitement. 00:06:32.425 --> 00:06:34.560 If you couldn't tell them. 00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:36.396 I'll start with this. 00:06:36.396 --> 00:06:39.464 This is such a good time to be alive. 00:06:40.132 --> 00:06:42.468 This is a good time to be alive. 00:06:42.468 --> 00:06:44.403 In terms of so many things. 00:06:44.403 --> 00:06:53.379 I mean, we are blessed with advanced health care and more people than ever are able to put food on their table. 00:06:53.779 --> 00:06:54.112 I mean. 00:06:54.112 --> 00:06:55.781 There's there's so many good. 00:06:55.781 --> 00:06:57.416 Things about life these days. 00:06:57.416 --> 00:07:02.187 But right now in particular, it's a good time to be alive. 00:07:02.187 --> 00:07:05.190 And I'll tell you why. so. 00:07:05.290 --> 00:07:10.797 First things first is that as you are listening to this, which will be April. 00:07:10.797 --> 00:07:13.132 Third, we are in the midst. 00:07:13.132 --> 00:07:21.507 Of Aries season, and Aries season is a big deal, especially this year, which we'll get into. 00:07:21.507 --> 00:07:26.579 But it's a big deal no matter what because it's the astrological new year. 00:07:26.946 --> 00:07:31.117 So as I'm sitting recording this, I'm actually recording this on March 20th. 00:07:31.416 --> 00:07:35.288 So today is the first day of Aries season as I'm recording. 00:07:35.788 --> 00:07:48.067 But even as this finally lands into your ears, it is still Aries season and it's the astrological new Year because Aries is the first sign in the entire zodiac. 00:07:48.367 --> 00:07:50.970 So it's the first of the 12 signs. 00:07:50.970 --> 00:07:56.041 We have just moved out of Pisces, which is the 12th sign in the Zodiac. 00:07:56.641 --> 00:08:04.449 And I'd like to kind of paint a picture for you of what these energies are like and how drastic the change between them is. 00:08:04.817 --> 00:08:10.223 So Pisces is a water sign, so it's symbolized by the water element. 00:08:10.490 --> 00:08:15.995 And as such, it's very fluid, it's sensitive, it's floaty, it's very intuitive. 00:08:15.995 --> 00:08:18.964 It's kind of up in the dreamscape. 00:08:19.598 --> 00:08:20.533 Okay. 00:08:20.533 --> 00:08:29.341 And that is extremely, extremely different from Aries season, which I said is the first in the Zodiac, but it's also a fire sign. 00:08:29.608 --> 00:08:31.110 So it kicks off everything. 00:08:31.110 --> 00:08:37.149 It says, spring is here, let's plant some seeds, let's get moving, let's let's put things into action. 00:08:37.283 --> 00:08:39.384 The sun is shining again. 00:08:39.384 --> 00:08:41.754 So Aries is very loud. 00:08:41.754 --> 00:08:54.332 While Pisces is very shy and subtle and still Aries is all about action externally, while Pisces is all about going in words and really sensing and feeling and knowing things. 00:08:54.700 --> 00:09:09.782 So there is this sharp difference between the two and also just say this is a basic understanding of when I say Pisces season or every season I'm talking about which Zodiac sign the Sun has moved into. 00:09:10.149 --> 00:09:14.986 So the sun moves into a new Zodiac sign around. 00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:20.192 Depending on the month, it's somewhere between kind of the 19th to the 22nd of each month. 00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:23.596 And it's therefore, give or take, 30 days. 00:09:24.129 --> 00:09:28.868 So we've had 30 days of Pisces season and now we are into fire mode. 00:09:29.501 --> 00:09:37.543 Now, all of the Zodiac signs, as I've explained in past episodes, there are a few ways to kind of categorize them. 00:09:37.543 --> 00:09:41.647 So one such way is through the elements that I had a whole episode about. 00:09:41.947 --> 00:09:45.518 So the elements being fire, air, water and earth. 00:09:45.817 --> 00:09:55.160 So quick synopsis of those just to kind of archetypal understand what these elements symbolize in these signs. 00:09:55.727 --> 00:10:04.003 So water is very soft and sensitive, intuitive error is very intellectual and communicative and social. 00:10:04.836 --> 00:10:06.672 Water. I already said water. 00:10:06.672 --> 00:10:10.208 Earth is very practical and organized and systematic. 00:10:10.208 --> 00:10:14.614 And then fire is very loud, bold and action oriented. 00:10:14.746 --> 00:10:16.548 Also very playful. 00:10:16.548 --> 00:10:17.750 So you can see. 00:10:17.750 --> 00:10:24.389 That moving from water that soft, subtle to fire that loud and bold is quite drastic. 00:10:24.389 --> 00:10:30.462 But there's another way to categorize these zodiac signs, which is

called modality. 00:10:30.462 --> 00:10:33.099 So there are three different modalities. 00:10:33.099 --> 00:10:36.268 There is cardinal fixed and mutable. 00:10:36.735 --> 00:10:48.047 So the first sign in every season, including Aries, because we're kicking off this spring season, is cardinal, and cardinal is exactly how it sounds. 00:10:48.047 --> 00:10:51.350 It's the the signs that kick things off. 00:10:51.350 --> 00:10:53.184 They have that initiated free energy. 00:10:53.184 --> 00:10:57.590 They like to get things started, get things moving, kind of rally the troops. 00:10:57.590 --> 00:10:59.291 They're they're great leaders. 00:10:59.291 --> 00:11:01.059 So that's like Cardinal Energy. 00:11:01.059 --> 00:11:04.897 Fixed signs are much more, how can I maintain this? 00:11:04.897 --> 00:11:08.100 I have the energy to keep this going, keep it moving forward. 00:11:08.400 --> 00:11:09.301 So when the cardinal. 00:11:09.301 --> 00:11:12.404 People have gotten bored, I'll keep marching it forward. 00:11:13.038 --> 00:11:14.606 And then you have mutable. 00:11:14.606 --> 00:11:16.008 Which are the most. 00:11:16.008 --> 00:11:20.578 Permeable, if you will, and most changeable, extremely flexible. 00:11:20.779 --> 00:11:24.450 They kind of wrap up the project and move on to something else. 00:11:24.950 --> 00:11:25.951 So we have these. 00:11:25.951 --> 00:11:35.094 Three energies within all of us and different ratios, depending on how many cardinal signs you have out, how many fixed signs, and how many mutable signs you have. 00:11:35.094 --> 00:11:42.768 But I'm just using this as one last demonstration of the difference in these energies between Pisces and Aries. 00:11:43.402 --> 00:11:48.274 Pisces, because it's the end of the winter season, is mutable. 00:11:48.740 --> 00:11:58.951 So you can see Cardinal is the first sign in each season, then fixed is the one in the middle and then mutable is the one that finishes out the season and is like. Let's move on. 00:11:58.951 --> 00:12:04.355 So Pisces is that permeable, flexible, mutable energy. 00:12:04.456 --> 00:12:05.857 And then. Aries. 00:12:05.857 --> 00:12:09.761 Is that cardinal energy that is like, okay, let's get things moving. 00:12:10.929 --> 00:12:14.200 So I know that was a long intro, but it's important because. 00:12:14.200 --> 00:12:16.735 We are going to talk about some really. 00:12:16.735 --> 00:12:40.359 Interesting astrology article phenomena that we have coming up, but I had to set the stage by saying we are moving into this bold focus on what you want kind of energy and because it is the astrological new year, we are being surrounded by this energy of start the dang thing already. 00:12:40.625 --> 00:12:50.269 If you wanted to get something off the ground or you wanted to have a conversation with someone or you've wanted to make a change in your life, now is the time to do it. 00:12:50.469 --> 00:12:57.308 You are being surrounded by this energy of change and newness,

this energy of initiation. 00:12:58.144 --> 00:13:00.980 So that is very exciting. 00:13:00.980 --> 00:13:02.380 But on top of that. 00:13:02.380 --> 00:13:03.515 We have a. 00:13:03.515 --> 00:13:07.219 Lot of Aries energy surrounding us. 00:13:07.552 --> 00:13:22.067 So I mentioned that this sun is in areas, which is what it means to be in Aries season, but we have an incredible amount of planets sitting in Aries right now and that. 00:13:22.067 --> 00:13:23.168 Just means that we have. 00:13:23.168 --> 00:13:25.403 Even more of that energy. 00:13:25.403 --> 00:13:37.549 Aries is the sign of action, of impulsive action, especially kind of not thinking before you do something, but just do it, get it into action, get it started. 00:13:37.783 --> 00:13:40.152 Rally the troops, fight war. 00:13:40.152 --> 00:13:43.923 So there's definitely this bold action orientation for Aries. 00:13:44.557 --> 00:13:57.702 And on top of the sun being an Aries, there is a very important astrological phenomenon that is sitting in areas right now that impacts us all deeply. 00:13:58.303 --> 00:14:05.244 So there's a concept called the North node and the south node, and these are a little. Hard to. 00:14:05.244 --> 00:14:18.756 Understand and the mind because they are not planets like the sun, the Moon, Jupiter, Venus, etc., but they're actually geographic or kind of mathematical points within the moon's orbit. 00:14:19.357 --> 00:14:21.159 So it's kind of confusing. 00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:40.980 But you should know this, that the north node and south node of the moon changes Zodiac signs about every 18 months and the north Node south node orientation in that 18 months represents the collective karmic path that all of humanity is on right now. 00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:49.120 So in our individual birth charts, we all have a North node and a south node and all say what that means briefly. 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:52.091 But I do want to focus mainly on this collective energy. 00:14:52.323 --> 00:15:11.442 So within our individual charts, which it's the same concept, by the way, the South node represents the, the things that you have already mastered, whether in past lives in your childhood, your natural inclinations, your natural strengths, and the things that simply come quite easily to you. 00:15:11.442 --> 00:15:13.278 It's your comfort zone. 00:15:13.278 --> 00:15:19.652 Your north node, however, is the the stuff that's a little uncomfortable and stretchy. 00:15:19.652 --> 00:15:21.519 It's outside of your comfort zone. 00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:24.523 It challenges you in every way. 00:15:24.756 --> 00:15:31.462 But as the name kind of points to the north, Node is your North Star. 00:15:31.830 --> 00:15:35.301 It's actually the direction you're meant to be marching towards. 00:15:35.634 --> 00:15:48.514 So for every lifetime we have a south node that we are quite comfortable in, but we're meant to use those natural strengths and put them towards our north node. 00:15:48.514 --> 00:15:52.451 Even though the north node is challenging, that's where the growth is. 00:15:52.717 --> 00:15:59.658 So my astrology teacher Deborah Silverman always says that the North node is your path to enlightenment. 00:15:59.725 --> 00:16:02.727 So that is on the individual level. 00:16:03.028 --> 00:16:05.965 But the same thing happens collectively. 00:16:05.965 --> 00:16:12.437 So the time that we're in right now, the north node is in Aries and the south node is in Libra. 00:16:13.272 --> 00:16:18.711 Now the north Node and south nodes are always in opposite signs. 00:16:18.711 --> 00:16:22.014 So Aries is the first sign of the zodiac. 00:16:22.014 --> 00:16:28.120 And if you add six on to that, which is halfway through the Zodiac, you have Libra, which is the seventh sign of the Zodiac. 00:16:28.354 --> 00:16:30.355 So those two are opposites. 00:16:30.355 --> 00:16:37.796 And within the entire Zodiac system, the opposites literally represent opposite things. 00:16:38.263 --> 00:16:55.114 And so whenever we tune into what the current north node of the moon is, it means that collectively, for all of us right now, in this 18 month period, we are meant to designate that North Node as our true north. 00:16:55.114 --> 00:17:00.652 That is meant to help us stay on the right path at this point in time. 00:17:01.086 --> 00:17:08.160 And any baby that is born in this 18 month period will have this Aries North node, Libra South Note. 00:17:08.861 --> 00:17:11.497 So what does this mean for us collectively right now? 00:17:11.497 --> 00:17:13.097 I will break this down. 00:17:13.097 --> 00:17:17.435 So Aries North Node, Libra South node will start with the south node. 00:17:18.069 --> 00:17:21.773 So Libra is the sign that is all about the other. 00:17:21.940 --> 00:17:26.077 It is all about creating harmony and peace with all other people. 00:17:26.377 --> 00:17:28.646 It is the sign of the mediator, the lawyer. 00:17:28.646 --> 00:17:34.586 They care about balance and peace and harmony above everything else. 00:17:34.619 --> 00:17:37.623 Conflict is not something is like. 00:17:37.689 --> 00:17:42.861 They also care about beauty and the feeling of the home and the clothing. 00:17:43.327 --> 00:17:53.172 So there's this sense of really deeply caring about the other and the projection of self and making sure that it's not taking up too much space. 00:17:53.471 --> 00:17:58.309 So there's this deeply communicative balancing energy that we have going on with Libra. 00:17:58.977 --> 00:18:03.147 So remember, it's the sign of the other Aries. 00:18:03.147 --> 00:18:06.151 The north node is exact opposite. 00:18:06.317 --> 00:18:11.457 Aries is the sign of the self and that's not always a bad thing. 00:18:11.457 --> 00:18:18.196 But Aries Energy is quite focused on self and what do I need and who am I in this world? 00:18:18.430 --> 00:18:20.499 And I want to take up space. 00:18:20.499 --> 00:18:22.034 That's why I'm here. 00:18:22.034

--> 00:18:25.671 So that can be quite a positive energy as well. 00:18:25.903 --> 00:18:32.144 Because if someone has too much of that Libra energy, they tend to be very indecisive, people pleasing. 00:18:32.510 --> 00:18:34.145 So these are big themes right now. 00:18:34.145 --> 00:18:41.553 And that Aries North node is saying, no, no, no, it's okay to focus on who you are and what you want. 00:18:42.054 --> 00:18:47.792 It's okay to speak your truth, even if it ruffles some feathers. 00:18:47.792 --> 00:18:59.505 So with this Aries North Node, Libra South node, not only do we have themes of self versus other, but these are also the signs that symbolize war and peace. 00:18:59.704 --> 00:19:02.708 So Aries is war and Libra is peace. 00:19:02.840 --> 00:19:09.748 We're also looking at impulsivity with Aries versus indecisive ness with Libra. 00:19:09.948 --> 00:19:17.588 So all of these kinds of themes are big for the collective right now, specifically on an individual level. 00:19:17.923 --> 00:19:31.502 I would have to look at everyone's charts to help you figure out how it's impacting you at an individual level, because we all have Aries and Libra in our chart, even if we don't have planets in those signs. 00:19:31.502 --> 00:19:32.503 I know that's really. 00:19:32.503 --> 00:19:35.673 Confusing, so I'm not going to go into that too much in this. 00:19:35.673 --> 00:19:43.214 Episode, but just know that we all have the energies of all 12 signs within us. 00:19:43.448 --> 00:19:48.886 We just have them in different ratios and during different seasons of life. 00:19:48.886 --> 00:19:57.528 During different seasons of life, different energies will be activated during what's called a transit, which is just the movements of the planets. 00:19:57.796 --> 00:20:09.340 So a planet, for example, might be moving into Aries in your chart, as it is for all of us and where Aries sits in your chart will be heavily activated at this time. 00:20:09.907 --> 00:20:22.287 But collectively, you can know that there is definitely this energy of war versus peace, self versus other action versus communication, impulsivity versus indecisiveness. 00:20:22.621 --> 00:20:31.730 So finding that balance, but also leaning into that Aries North node, ruffle some feathers, go be athletic, go be bold, go start the thing. 00:20:31.730 --> 00:20:34.333 Go take up space in this world. 00:20:34.333 --> 00:20:37.336 That's okay. Okay. 00:20:37.603 --> 00:20:45.644 So that is important because we are about to embark on a massive solar eclipse. 00:20:45.911 --> 00:20:49.413 By the time you've listened to this, we will have already had this. 00:20:49.413 --> 00:20:51.316 Huge lunar. Eclipse. 00:20:51.316 --> 00:21:03.362 We haven't had it at the time that I'm recording this, but what I will say before I'll explain the eclipses is that eclipses always happen in twos, which we're about to have. 00:21:03.394 --> 00:21:11.936 So as I said, as you're listening to this, we will have already had the lunar eclipse on March 25th, and the solar eclipse is coming on April 8th. 00:21:11.936 --> 00:21:20.378 They always come in twos and they always have to do with the the symbols of the north and south node. 00:21:21.113 --> 00:21:29.921 So that means that our lunar eclipse, which again is happening on March 25th, is happening in the sign of Libra. 00:21:30.255 --> 00:21:36.193 And the solar eclipse, which is happening on April 8th, is happening in the sign of Aries. 00:21:36.994 --> 00:21:39.597 So let's get into what this means because. 00:21:39.597 --> 00:21:41.432 This is what I was. 00:21:41.432 --> 00:21:44.603 Talking about when I said this is an exciting time to. 00:21:44.603 --> 00:21:46.471 Be. Alive. 00:21:46.471 --> 00:21:51.042 So we start with the lunar eclipse that has already happened. 00:21:51.076 --> 00:21:52.344 When you listen to this. 00:21:52.344 --> 00:21:54.880 So the lunar eclipse in Libra. 00:21:54.880 --> 00:21:57.015 So what exactly is a lunar eclipse? 00:21:57.015 --> 00:21:58.450 You might ask a ha. 00:21:58.450 --> 00:22:00.285 Great question, my friend. 00:22:00.285 --> 00:22:05.457 So a lunar eclipse is essentially a super charged full moon. 00:22:06.525 --> 00:22:08.093 And what we have talked. 00:22:08.093 --> 00:22:16.101 About on this podcast before is that the full moon symbolizes the culmination, the ending of a chapter. 00:22:16.468 --> 00:22:19.538 The light of the moon is at its full peak. 00:22:19.570 --> 00:22:25.443 Everything that it has been building up to is seen in its fullness, in his wholeness. 00:22:26.044 --> 00:22:29.047 So that chapter is closing. 00:22:29.047 --> 00:22:31.482 So full moons, especially lunar. 00:22:31.482 --> 00:22:35.386 Eclipses, which are just these massive supercharge edged full moons. 00:22:35.753 --> 00:22:49.701 Are a great time to close things out, to say goodbye to the patterns, the people, the habits that no longer serve you to figure out what needs to be released and surrendered in your life. 00:22:49.701 --> 00:22:51.536 What is not serving you? 00:22:51.536 --> 00:22:53.904 What can fall by the wayside. 00:22:53.904 --> 00:22:58.910 So again, lunar eclipse is great for ending and closing out. 00:22:59.310 --> 00:23:21.432 And what's great about me getting this episode out to you on April 3rd is that even though you've already had this lunar eclipse, this energy is continuing until we have that solar eclipse on April 8th, because the time between a full moon and a new moon is when that fullness of the full moon. 00:23:21.432 --> 00:23:23.268 I want you to literally picture the full moon. 00:23:23.268 --> 00:23:25.303 It has this. Huge bright. 00:23:25.303 --> 00:23:39.351 Sphere in the sky and that light is going to decrease, decrease, decrease, decrease until it's to nothing, which is the new moon, where there's no light against the moon in the sky. 00:23:40.050 --> 00:24:02.707 And so at that point, what you can think of symbolically is that,

okay, we've had this massive closing of the chapter, the encore, you know, curtains finally go down after that full moon in all of its brightness and then you are still integrating those lessons, those ideas, those changes for two weeks until the new moon happens, those two weeks later. 00:24:03.008 --> 00:24:05.644 So that's why we have lunar eclipse March 25th. 00:24:05.644 --> 00:24:08.279 And then two weeks later, we have this massive solar eclipse. 00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:15.787 So when this episode gets to you, you still have time to make a ritual of the closing of that chapter. 00:24:16.153 --> 00:24:21.625 So just think of what is not serving you, what needs to be let go of, what needs to change. 00:24:21.960 --> 00:24:29.000 So start releasing those things, whether you want to journal, whether you want to write it on a note and then burn it in a flame. 00:24:29.300 --> 00:24:30.935 Whatever works for you. 00:24:30.935 --> 00:24:34.905 I want you to ritual wise your life using these eclipses. 00:24:35.673 --> 00:24:42.047 So that lunar eclipse I said, is in Libra, which makes sense with this whole north node south node thing. 00:24:42.047 --> 00:24:52.089 So remember, the south and the south node is collectively maybe what we've already done, what we've grown comfortable with, and we're marching towards that north node. 00:24:52.289 --> 00:25:10.575 So going back to this lunar eclipse on March 25th, which is the closing of a chapter, we are closing out that Libra chapter and two weeks later we have this massive supercharged new moon called the solar Eclipse on April eight in Aries. 00:25:10.942 --> 00:25:15.212 And so the new moon always symbolizes new beginnings. 00:25:15.446 --> 00:25:20.251 If the full moon is the end of the chapter, the new moon is the beginning of the next one. 00:25:20.251 --> 00:25:27.959 So the new moon is a great time to set intentions, to start putting action into the things you decided you wanted to change. 00:25:28.393 --> 00:25:31.462 At this point, you've already let go of things on the full moon. 00:25:31.663 --> 00:25:38.336 So the new moon is when you start again and you implement the things that you want to bring into your life. 00:25:38.336 --> 00:25:41.306 You start planting seeds at the new moon. 00:25:41.306 --> 00:25:54.251 But what makes this so freaking special and I can't hammer this in enough is that new moons inherently have this beginning initiative, free energy. 00:25:54.251 --> 00:26:00.025 As I just said, it's where we start setting intentions and planting the seeds to grow things. 00:26:00.525 --> 00:26:07.164 However, we have extra new beginning energy here for a few reasons. 00:26:07.164 --> 00:26:10.035 One, not only is this. 00:26:10.035 --> 00:26:12.938 New. Moon in Aries. 00:26:12.938 --> 00:26:14.806 Which is that new beginning. 00:26:14.806 --> 00:26:15.740 Let's get it started. 00:26:15.740 --> 00:26:17.642 Let's take bold, impulsive action. 00:26:17.642 --> 00:26:20.644 Just do the thing kind of energy. 00:26:20.679 --> 00:26:27.586 But we also have our north node in areas, which again is our collective North Star. 00:26:27.786 --> 00:26:29.520 We are marching towards that. 00:26:29.520 --> 00:26:33.924 That is for whatever reason, what our collective needs right now. 00:26:34.792 --> 00:26:37.362 Okay, so we have new moon. 00:26:37.362 --> 00:26:41.599 We have new moon, an Aries, we have Aries North node. 00:26:41.833 --> 00:26:44.970 And on top of that, this isn't just any old. 00:26:44.970 --> 00:26:46.438 New moon, my friend. 00:26:46.438 --> 00:26:49.273 This is a solar eclipse. 00:26:49.273 --> 00:26:53.411 And what happens with the solar eclipse is quite beautiful and symbolic. 00:26:54.045 --> 00:26:55.246 So the moon. 00:26:55.246 --> 00:27:01.353 Will for a few minutes literally cover the sun in the middle of the day. 00:27:01.385 --> 00:27:04.923 18 p.m. 00:27:04.923 --> 00:27:18.236 Eastern time in the United States, you could go outside with your little eclipse glasses on, of course, and you could watch the moon completely shield the sun in darkness. 00:27:18.603 --> 00:27:25.609 So at the peak of the day, on Monday, April 8th, the whole world will be shrouded in darkness. 00:27:25.644 --> 00:27:28.445 And that is so symbolic to me. 00:27:28.445 --> 00:27:32.282 It is truly the end of that old chapter. 00:27:32.784 --> 00:27:52.269 And then once the sun's light starts peeking out from the dark again, anything that had been in the dark, anything that had been hidden, or things that you weren't willing to look at within your own psyche, within your own life, within your own friendships, within your career, everything that was in the dark will come to the light. 00:27:52.770 --> 00:27:57.041 There is no more hiding or pretending or faking. 00:27:57.675 --> 00:28:08.452 And so that is a really beautiful thing, because using that with this strong Aries and necessary energy, it's like we're not playing here anymore. 00:28:08.452 --> 00:28:10.255 Like you. 00:28:10.255 --> 00:28:12.856 Were not doing that kind of Libra. 00:28:12.856 --> 00:28:14.425 Indecisive ness. 00:28:14.425 --> 00:28:16.827 We are. Going. Strong. 00:28:16.827 --> 00:28:19.096 Full force ahead. 00:28:19.096 --> 00:28:21.465 Like, ready, set, go. 00:28:21.465 --> 00:28:24.234 That is totally Aries energy. 00:28:25.336 --> 00:28:28.839 So I'm extra really excited for this. 00:28:29.173 --> 00:28:32.076 One note I will say, just. To further. 00:28:32.076 --> 00:28:35.880 Complicate this whole thing, and this is the last astrological thing I will mention. 00:28:35.880 --> 00:28:39.317 So if you are lost out of your mind, don't worry, my friends. 00:28:39.784 --> 00:28:59.203 So the last thing I want to mention is that even though there is this strong, full steam ahead, energy on April 1st, which has already happened at the time you listen to this, Mercury goes into retrograde, which maybe you've heard about this on social media and you've even

seen the memes about. 00:28:59.203 --> 00:29:00.571 Mercury must be in Gatorade. 00:29:00.571 --> 00:29:02.207 My life is falling apart. 00:29:02.207 --> 00:29:04.541 But I'll just quickly. 00:29:02.207 --> 00:29:04.541 Explain what this means. 00:29:04.541 --> 00:29:15.053 First of all, it doesn't always have to mean doom or gloom, but it does potentially mean a slowing down of the action I just told you to take. 00:29:15.053 --> 00:29:25.529 So Mercury is the planet that represents our mind, our intellect, our communication, and also a lot of electronics. 00:29:25.563 --> 00:29:31.603 So you can just think of it's that very airy, eternally changing energy. 00:29:31.935 --> 00:29:44.816 And when Mercury goes into retrograde, which essentially just means that from the vantage point of Earth, it appears as if the planet of Mercury is slowing down or going backwards, even though it actually isn't. 00:29:44.816 --> 00:29:57.494 It's just from the vantage point of earth based on orbits, etc., that those things I just mentioned that mercury represents are in some way slowed down or challenged a bit. 00:29:57.828 --> 00:30:04.269 So you might find yourself saying things and then that's not really what you meant to say. 00:30:01.732 --> 00:30:04.269 You can't really find the words. 00:30:04.269 --> 00:30:05.804 Or there are a. 00:30:05.804 --> 00:30:09.073 Lot of electrical problems during Mercury Retrograde. 00:30:09.374 --> 00:30:13.144 Flight delays are way more common during Mercury Retrograde. 00:30:13.144 --> 00:30:15.012 It's actually insane. 00:30:15.012 --> 00:30:17.414 So things like that will happen. 00:30:17.414 --> 00:30:20.384 And I think. It's. 00:30:20.417 --> 00:30:28.292 Oddly maybe perfect timing that this is happening right before this solar eclipse, because as I just said. 00:30:28.526 --> 00:30:29.626 There's a whole. 00:30:29.626 --> 00:30:32.196 Lot of that Aries energy. 00:30:32.196 --> 00:30:38.569 We also have numerous other planets in the sky that are in areas Mercury that I'm just talking about now will also be an Aries. 00:30:38.569 --> 00:30:41.605 So beware of a sharp tongue with others. 00:30:42.272 --> 00:30:43.740 Venus will be an Aries. 00:30:43.740 --> 00:30:54.751 So we have a lot of that Aries energy and I feel like Mercury going into retrograde is just the cosmos way of saying, okay, you know, ready, set, go. 00:30:54.751 --> 00:31:01.058 But just think twice about the thing you want to implement before you implement it. 00:31:01.259 --> 00:31:04.996 So in a way, maybe pulling back some of that Libra energy will. 00:31:04.996 --> 00:31:06.029 Help us because that. 00:31:06.029 --> 00:31:09.433 Libra energy thinks about things a lot. 00:31:09.433 --> 00:31:10.535 It's an air sign. 00:31:10.535 --> 00:31:16.507 And I also mentioned it's often quite connected to indecision and decisiveness. 00:31:16.807 --> 00:31:32.390 So think twice, you know, use that mercury, retrograde, that slowness and thinking and communicate

again and not quite being sure what words to use or how to get this message across to my to my audience use some of that slowness to your advantage. 00:31:32.390 --> 00:31:42.532 And then when mercury exits retrograde, which is I believe at the end of May, then you can fully. 00:31:42.866 --> 00:31:45.470 Go full force, implement it. 00:31:45.470 --> 00:31:48.472 And it doesn't mean you can't implement things before the end of. 00:31:48.472 --> 00:31:56.980 May, but just know that any sort of delay energy you might feel in April and May related to these things that you just want to get started. 00:31:57.682 --> 00:32:01.885 That heaviness or that delay will start to lift at the beginning of the summer. 00:32:02.553 --> 00:32:05.556 So that is my astrological talk. 00:32:05.556 --> 00:32:15.066 But I just wanted to say, even from a non astrological point of view, these eclipses are a big freaking deal. 00:32:15.266 --> 00:32:22.874 People are going on what they're calling eclipse vacations, where they will literally travel to what's called the path of totality. 00:32:23.173 --> 00:32:27.778 So it's an area it's actually going through North America for this particular solar eclipse. 00:32:27.778 --> 00:32:43.861 But it's the line, the path within North America where you can see the full solar eclipse for a matter of minutes, whereas in other parts of the United States, we will be able to see a partial solar eclipse, but not the full thing. 00:32:44.228 --> 00:32:46.163 So people are actually taking vacations. 00:32:46.163 --> 00:32:50.801 But on top of that, the news is going crazy about this. 00:32:50.934 --> 00:33:00.979 So especially in Texas, where the path of totality goes through, they are saying that people should have two weeks worth of food stocked up at home. 00:33:01.244 --> 00:33:04.449 They should have a full tank of gas before the eclipse happens. 00:33:04.749 --> 00:33:07.986 People are being warned that power grids are going to go out. 00:33:07.986 --> 00:33:15.660 So wi fi radio waves, a bunch of that electrical stuff will be messed with, which happens during a lot of eclipses. 00:33:15.993 --> 00:33:18.028 And we don't even know why. 00:33:18.028 --> 00:33:20.565 I was even reading an article this morning where. 00:33:20.565 --> 00:33:21.499 These kind. 00:33:21.499 --> 00:33:24.602 Of amateur radio waves scientists. 00:33:24.801 --> 00:33:26.136 As the amateur, because literally. 00:33:26.136 --> 00:33:28.239 They have just these towers in their backyards. 00:33:28.239 --> 00:33:35.278 They're trying to figure it out on their own, but they are trying to do studies on why this happens and no one knows. 00:33:35.712 --> 00:33:40.018 And so I just use that as further proof and evidence of. 00:33:40.018 --> 00:33:41.719 This whole weird. 00:33:41.719 --> 00:33:43.354 Astrological. 00:33:43.354 --> 00:33:45.722 Thing called astrology. 00:33:45.722 --> 00:33:52.930 That we might not understand why it works, but something about it works. 00:33:53.631 --> 00:33:58.201 And on that note, I'll just say this because this is pretty crazy. 00:33:58.201 --> 00:34:02.205 Before I round out with the last last little section. 00:34:02.205 --> 00:34:14.085 But in terms of astrology and the physical reality of the world, there are some really wild correlations. 00:34:14.085 --> 00:34:25.362 You can actually read entire books like Cosmos and Psyche that outline how astrological phenomena have correlated with massive historical events. 00:34:25.996 --> 00:34:27.197 So, for example. 00:34:27.197 --> 00:34:33.704 I wasn't sure if I was going to share these because these sound really and this episode of the podcast is called It's All Magic, but. 00:34:33.971 --> 00:34:40.445 I'll share them just for the point of showing how wild these correlations can be. 00:34:40.445 --> 00:34:52.123 So I was doing research on historical events that have also happened around eclipses and or Aries North Node lunar cycles. 00:34:52.523 --> 00:34:56.094 So I'll start with the eclipse because there was one really cool example. 00:34:56.594 --> 00:34:59.630 So Eclipse is, as I said, the solar eclipse. 00:35:00.097 --> 00:35:05.335 Whatever was in the dark, whatever was uncertain, Belleville will then come to the light. 00:35:05.335 --> 00:35:09.773 It's a sense of gaining clarity, insight on something that you weren't sure about before. 00:35:10.307 --> 00:35:20.050 In 1919, during a solar eclipse, the theory of relativity was kind of discovered and confirmed by Albert Einstein. 00:35:20.351 --> 00:35:24.621 The solar eclipse actually brought clarity around the concept. 00:35:25.155 --> 00:35:32.996 So again, we can use this to our benefit to gain those flashes of insight and to get better guidance and clarity on our own lives. 00:35:33.597 --> 00:35:36.467 So that's the cool example with the eclipse. 00:35:36.467 --> 00:35:39.202 But listen to these examples. 00:35:39.202 --> 00:35:40.838 So I said. 00:35:40.838 --> 00:35:46.543 With North Node in Aries, South Node in Libra, there are these themes of war and peace. 00:35:46.543 --> 00:35:55.485 Violence and peace areas is ruled by the planet Mars, which symbolizes war, rage, violence, intensity, power. 00:35:55.987 --> 00:35:58.121 So that sounds quite negative. 00:35:58.121 --> 00:36:00.690 We all. Have that energy within us and it's. 00:36:00.690 --> 00:36:02.193 It's useful. 00:36:02.193 --> 00:36:05.829 That energy is literally the energy of creation of life. 00:36:05.829 --> 00:36:07.831 We need that forcefulness. 00:36:07.831 --> 00:36:11.902 But it can also be either destructive or beneficial. 00:36:12.503 --> 00:36:20.311 So here are a couple examples of other historical events that have happened during North Node Aries Lunar cycles. 00:36:20.978 --> 00:36:25.349 So there were two massive assassinations during these lunar cycles. 00:36:25.650 --> 00:36:32.155 One was Martin Luther King Jr and one was of Bobby Kennedy during a North node. 00:36:32.155

--> 00:36:34.125 Aries lunar cycle was also. 00:36:34.125 --> 00:36:44.635 When the Soviet Union tested their first atomic bomb and the Chernobyl incident also happened during a North Node Aries lunar cycle. 00:36:45.302 --> 00:36:55.612 So you can see that sometimes there is truly this extreme version of the energy we're being presented with in these situations. 00:36:55.612 --> 00:37:02.719 They literally have to do with destruction, violence, rage, anger, war, outrage. 00:37:03.186 --> 00:37:09.025 So maybe we need a little of that energy right now. 00:37:09.059 --> 00:37:11.795 Maybe it is the sense of. 00:37:11.795 --> 00:37:12.697 We will no. 00:37:12.697 --> 00:37:19.135 Longer accept the things that don't serve us as a collective, as individuals. 00:37:19.269 --> 00:37:24.474 We need to think for ourselves and say, this isn't fair. 00:37:24.775 --> 00:37:27.077 We're not going to do this. People pleasing anymore. 00:37:27.077 --> 00:37:29.447 Something needs to. Change. 00:37:29.447 --> 00:37:32.449 And so there are a lot of astrologers. 00:37:32.717 --> 00:37:33.851 Who are. 00:37:35.186 --> 00:37:53.737 Talking about some massive changes that might happen in the United States of America because of this eclipse, because of some of the political things that have already been set in motion, but then paired with the fact that this path of totality in seeing the eclipse goes directly through the United States. 00:37:54.338 --> 00:38:00.945 So there's a lot out there and if you're interested, I definitely recommend you check it out. 00:38:01.244 --> 00:38:09.387 But also know that there's an aspect with eclipses, especially as I was doing my research, of which I did a lot for this episode. 00:38:09.786 --> 00:38:16.527 There's an aspect with eclipses where we don't know what will come on the other side. 00:38:16.527 --> 00:38:29.239 You know, before the eclipse in 1919, Albert Einstein didn't necessarily know that he was going to propel himself to to fame and get all these accolades for discovering relativity. 00:38:29.239 --> 00:38:31.342 I mean, that came with this flash of insight. 00:38:31.342 --> 00:38:34.612 What had been hidden is now certain it's now in the light. 00:38:35.346 --> 00:38:43.987 And so no matter what you have heard or seen on social media, I've seen a lot of fear mongering, which you can probably guess. 00:38:43.987 --> 00:38:49.693 I'm not into a lot of negative stuff, and I don't think that has to be the case. 00:38:49.693 --> 00:38:52.697 I just think we don't necessarily know what's coming. 00:38:52.929 --> 00:38:55.932 But it's time to be open to the possibilities. 00:38:55.932 --> 00:39:09.146 Open to the possibilities of releasing the things as a society that don't serve us and rising up, standing up for our beliefs, sharing our voices, sharing what we want and what we need. 00:39:09.780 --> 00:39:13.550 So there's definitely that energy present at this point in time. 00:39:14.085 --> 00:39:23.094 And I will just

round this out by saying that to use these eclipses to use really any of the things. 00:39:23.094 --> 00:39:27.030 I talk about in this podcast, whether it's just normal full moons new moons. 00:39:27.398 --> 00:39:37.307 Being sick, being on your period, you know, using these times in life to create rituals, to romanticize life. 00:39:37.775 --> 00:39:51.889 So again, even when you listen to this, even though the lunar eclipse has already passed, use this time to journal about the things that don't serve you to journal about the things that you will surrender and let go of what needs to change in your life. 00:39:51.889 --> 00:40:03.900 And then on April eight, you're also going to set aside some time to journal or even speak with a family member or friend about the things that you want to implement in your life. 00:40:03.934 --> 00:40:08.472 What seeds do you want to plant that will grow over the spring and summer? 00:40:08.472 --> 00:40:11.541 And then maybe you'll harvest them when autumn comes. 00:40:11.976 --> 00:40:14.144 You know, really use that initiative. 00:40:14.144 --> 00:40:15.211 Spring is here. 00:40:15.211 --> 00:40:18.081 Energy to your benefit. 00:40:18.081 --> 00:40:24.021 So, you know, I'm always here telling you to visualize your life, and now is the perfect time to do so. 00:40:24.889 --> 00:40:27.525 So that wraps up with today's episode. 00:40:27.525 --> 00:40:29.393 I hope you got.
