Welcome, welcome, welcome to another episode
of stars, stones and stories.
Welcome to this extended ma magic
transmission.
This is a transmission about transformation as
we are anchoring deep into butterfly season with this coming Gemini new moon.
What a powerful Taurus season we have had.
The Taurus new moon ushered in the integration
of the prominent Aries Libra eclipse season, which has been shining a spotlight on your
identity, your relationships, and all of the spaces and places where healing is ready to
occur within these topics.
For deeper insights, you can look to roughly
15 degrees Aries and Libra and see where that lands in your chart.
What house that lands within? Because that is the house or those are the
houses, right? It's a mirror.
Everything in astrology is a yin and a yang, a give and a take, an ebb and a flow.
These are currents.
These are cycles.
These are layers.
These are reverberations, like when one
strokes the gong.
I'm a gong player.
I've been playing the gong since 2014, and it is said that the gong is the most sublime
instrument of the yogi.
As I have expanded my sound healing repertoire
over the years, I still stand behind the power and the potency of the gong.
If you know my work, which most of you here do, and welcome, welcome to all of the new
listeners and the new people stepping into this earthseed temple arts community.
What I'm most interested in in my work is the intersection.
As my work continues to interdisciplinary, especially this past year, I've been in deep,
deep contemplation, really frozen in many ways in the midst of my Uranus opposition,
respectively, in Scorpio and Taurus.
And I have my north node in Leo and my south
node in Aquarius.
And these four points created a grand cross
within my chart.
And it's been a a very interesting, elongated
moment of great tension, great contemplation, deep study, self inquiry, shedding,
dissolving, asking all of the questions of myself that I offer as prompts within my
weekly Vinci and love notes, within these podcasts, within the mom magic community,
within any sort of sphere I am circulating within.
And I've been in this deep, deep space.
And it has been really, it has been one of the
most challenging moments of my life and also one of the most rewarding because I've stayed
the course, I've held it, I've done the inquiry, and I am a Gemini sun.
I will be welcoming my 44th solar return in a couple of weeks.
With that being said, I'm 29 degrees.
My sun is conjunct the silver gate of man,
which opposes the golden gate of God on the galactic center.
And in this Uranus opposition, I have officially named this mystery school that I've
been etherically building over the course of the last decade, the Golden Gate Esoterica.
And the name of this mystery school is an ode to the golden gate of God, which opposes my
son.
And it is a point that has mystified and
mythified my life over the years, particularly since I began traveling to Kemet, to Egypt.
So there's so many layers and golden threads that have been weaving and have been woven
over time.
Concurrently, I'm Libra rising Pluto in the
first house in Libra.
And so this Aries Libra eclipse journey has
been very purifying and putrefying at times for me.
And because of that, I've had to step away from the consistency in which I deliver these
podcasts, and the consistency in which I deliver my venetian love notes and in all of
my offerings.
And it's been incredibly humbling to pause and
to reflect.
With that being said, I feel in this Gemini
season, I feel this emergence beginning to happen for me, and I'm really looking forward
to coming back in a newfound way with a newfound caliber and sharing my work with you
all in this new way, which will be coming the solstice.
As I'm recording right now, I'm preparing to depart for a personal pilgrimage with my
daughter.
We're going to a sacred ancestral land, and
this journey has just popped into our field in the past two months, and it just feels like
this immense gift to be able to make this journey at this time collectively, but also in
my own personal life.
So I shared these threads with you because as
an interdisciplinary artist, I'm very curious about the intersection of these subject
matters that I share and I study, ranging from elemental kundalini technology to sound
healing, to goddess astrology, to tarot, to pilgrimage, to this mystery school that is
being birthed.
Sometimes I wish I could strip things down and
pare them down and make them very simple.
Sometimes I wish I was a minimalist, but I'm
not.
And I have to honor who I am and what I am and
the medicine I came here to deliver.
And what I'm so interested in is the
intersection and the interconnectedness of all things, and not saying that in some sort of
trite way, but really finding these deep, hidden meanings.
We've had this immense eclipse portal that we went through in April with the total solar
eclipse in Aries, conjunct Chiron in Aries.
And if you remember that the nodes of fate got
activated in the Aries north node, Libra south node last October, this journey will continue
into September and October, where we will complete this chapter of identity and
relationships.
So we're all doing a lot of personal healing,
we're all doing ancestral healing, and we're all a part of this great collective healing as
we're anchoring in the foundations for the new earth consciousness.
And in April after the eclipse, the total solar eclipse in Aries, a couple weeks later,
we had a very powerful Jupiter Uranus marriage in the late degrees of Taurus, which became
even more activated on the 18 May with the sun Jupiter marriage and the Venus Uranus
marriage.
Essentially, there have just been these
massive, really amplified, magnified, multiplied frequencies moving through these
fixed signs, particularly through Taurus.
But all of the fixed energies, that being
Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius have been sensing this on a very palpable level.
We've all been feeling it.
So much of this journey for us in April and
May has been around our personal and collective stability.
Your connection to the earth herself, the lineage, healing you've been tending to, and
this collective intensity that we're facing as Pluto is in Aquarius and will retrograde back
to that late degree of Capricorn.
And then November 19 of this year, 2024, will
firmly anchor into Aquarius for two decades, until 2044.
And we're also, in this period, nine year within the taoist cosmology, which is a nod to
letting go of that teenage, uninitiated masculine energy that has been the archetype
of what a lot of our leaders around the world have been representing.
And we're shifting into this whole new dynamic presence of the feminine stepping forth, and
the mature feminine, the feminine in her forties and her fifties, the feminine who has
been through initiation after initiation after initiation.
She's been stripped bare.
She's hung on the hook like a nana in the
underworld.
She has been through things.
She knows what true beauty is.
She knows how to be raw and authentic.
And that's the leadership that is stepping forward for the next two decades.
I know that this community has many different people within it.
And I also just want to raise my glass of spring water to my fellow sisters in our late
thirties, our forties, our fifties, and even our early sixties and say, yes, it is time.
It is time for us to come out into the world with our crowns on our head and to be the
leaders that this earth needs now more than ever before.
So with that, let's take a drink to life.
To water, the reality that water is life and
our most ancient, primordial ancestor.
And let's give thanks and praises for this day
and for all that we're creating as we build this new earth consciousness, this renaissance
together.
It is an honor to sit with you in this way,
and it is an honor for me to be able to share my transmissions in this way.
I've shared with you a little bit about what I've been through personally, but I can't
emphasize enough how hard it has been.
And I share that because I think sometimes
when we see people who put themselves out there in some form of leadership, we don't
always see the full spectrum of their humanity.
So I'm here to say I've really been through it.
I'm also this current version of my work through Earth Sea temple arts, and what I've
been cultivating has just entered into a ten year threshold, and I'm really excited about
that which is coming and sharing with you all and weaving with you all in new ways.
So with that, let's talk about this Gemini season.
It is a time to bring in many ways of renaissance and quick, fast lightning changes.
We're preparing for this rebirth with the Gemini new moon.
And before this rebirth enacts, I really invite you to pause and take a moment in your
day to day to utilize the power of the closing lunation of this balsamic Taurus moon that is
alive at this moment as I'm recording this podcast, and to perhaps take a moment, go
outdoors, create a cozy space on the earth, perhaps go outside when the stars are out or
when the sun is out, whatever you're called to.
But gaze, gaze into the sky, knowing that the stars are there regardless of whether you can
see them or not.
And in preparation for this reset, you have
this opportunity to once more shed what no longer serves you.
And I invite you to consider where Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius live within your
chart.
This is the space that offers wisdom around
what has and is continuing to shift within you and ask, who am I?
Who am I really? What do I stand for?
What do I serve? What do I wish to experience with?
Whom do I wish to have these experiences with? As we come into Gemini season with this Gemini
new moon, the sun has been in Gemini since the end of May.
However, the season officially is amplified and opened.
When the sun and the moon come into unification and there's something being born,
you can ask yourself, where am I being called to rebirth?
What am I committed to? How do I magnify bliss in my life?
And what magic am I here to create? I love Gemini season as a 29th degree Gemini
sun, and I have a number of placements in Gemini, and Venus is there.
And she rules my chart with the Libra rising.
This is a very deep personal placement for me.
I find any sign of the zodiac, there's the superficial understanding and knowingness, and
then there's a deeper depth behind that.
The medicine of Gemini.
It is the third sign of the zodiac.
So it's a younger frequency.
It comes after that primordial fire.
It comes after the primordial earth.
And this is like primordial air, mutable air, shifting from late spring into summer here in
the northern hemisphere.
And this is a time of changing tides, of
sharing information with air.
Gemini as the archetype of the twins of the
glyph of duality offers you the opportunity to face the duality that lives within you and to
find ways to anchor oneness and unity consciousness.
So Gemini season is about communication.
New thoughts, new ideas, new ways of
perceiving reality.
It is the archetype of the storyteller of wild
Coyote woman, who dances with the psychopomp.
It is butterfly medicine as Gemini is ruled by
mercury, mercury as the psychopomp, Mercury, who goes retrograde three to four times every
year, who, as we trace through the ages, connects to Hermes, who connects to Thoth, to
Houthi, the ibis headed God of ancient future Egypt, the scribe, the storyteller, the
magician, the master of signs and symbols, the one who teaches you to see through time and
space and to open your inner ear and to perceive reality in a new way.
The creator of astrology and astronomy and writing and hieroglyphs.
This is a profound time of year that often gets spoken about, about being talkative and
social and two faced and a lover of the gab, which all of that's true, but there's a lot
more depth here.
And so we're invoking this time of light and
dark.
We're honoring that duality within.
We're opening the mind, we're opening the intellect.
We're wanting to communicate from a deeper space.
And this is a time to activate your eternal child, to call upon the archetype of the fool
and the trickster, to be playful, to emphasize moving, communication, language development,
being curious, being open minded, working with the hands, opening the portals of the brain
and the shadow frequency of this time of year, with the Gemini frequency as being too
restless or noncommittal or superficial, two faced, being inconsistent or nervous.
And the nerve energy is very much amplified because mercury rules of the nervous system.
And we have a stellium in Gemini with this new moon.
And also we have Jupiter, having just recently shifted into the sign of Gemini, where Jupiter
will travel until early June of 2025.
So this next year is a really delicate time to
care for the nervous system and to be very mindful of how you're interacting with your
devices, to be very mindful of how you're interacting in the social realms, especially
through devices, through these portals.
We call them mobile phones.
They're not phones anymore.
They are beyond computers.
I don't know if we really have the actual name for what they are these days, but we carry
around these devices that are quite powerful and our lives are changing.
We have artificial intelligence becoming more and more a part of our reality.
Just a couple of months ago, Sedna shifted into the sign of Gemini.
And so this is a powerful, overarching transit for our collective reality around artificial
intelligence and what humanity is losing and what we are gaining and how we're going to
transform our experiences as we claim these worlds that we're already within.
I love to work with taoist stone medicine, and Gemini season is a really powerful time to
connect with aquamarine.
Aquamarine is the gatekeeper of the portals.
And this is a stone that heals all of the portals in the body.
It heals the kidneys, the brain, the liver, the lungs, the bones, the hormones, and your
entire endocrine system.
And this stone loves the thyroid, the
pituitary, and the pineal glands.
And it has the ability to go deep and
reprogram the DNA.
Aquamarine's message is that enlightenment is
possible for all sentient beings.
And I think this is a really important stone
for us to work with over the next year with Jupiter and Gemini.
So, as we're considering this Gemini energy, it's important to consider Sagittarius as they
sit across the wheel from one another.
So we're considering knowledge versus wisdom,
intellect and understanding concrete facts or abstract thought.
Being nearsighted or farsighted, being a student or a teacher, having an idea versus
ideas, taking short journeys versus long journeys.
And this Gemini new moon lands on Thursday, the 6 June on Jupiter Day, which is very
powerful because Jupiter has just entered into Gemini in eastern daylight time.
The new moon will be aligned at 08:37 a.m.
01:37 p.m. british standard Time.
And as I mentioned, we have a stellium in Gemini.
We have Sedna, Jupiter, Mercury, the moon, sun, and Venus.
The moon, sun, and Venus are all conjunct roughly at 17 degrees Gemini.
And they are also conjunct the fixed star rigel, which is a benefic, a blessed star
located in Orion, carrying the energy of Jupiter and Saturn coming together.
So the 17 degrees Gemini is very important.
The sabian symbol of this is the head of a
robust youth changes into that of a mature thinker.
This is about the transformation of physical vitality into the power to build concepts and
intellectual formations through which knowledge can be transferred.
A quiet and steady metamorphosis of biological energy into mind power.
The star sparks is a magic coin that has only one side and the message for the 17 degrees
Gemini, where the sun, the moon, our core sense of self, our emotional body, our past,
our memories, coincide with goddess Venus.
What we love, what we value, how we relate to
one another, how we make money, how we spend money, how we see culture and work towards
creating culture in the world at large.
As the three of these merge at 17 degrees.
Gemini.
There is this moment in time and space that
says, yes, there is powerful transformation afoot.
Magic is afoot.
And although so much is collapsing in the
external world, there's something much more mature coming forth.
We're letting go of that uninitiated teenage boy, that masculine teenage energy, and
beginning to welcome in this mature feminine energy that ultimately is in service to the
one and to the all.
And so the message with this new moon is to
know your true self, to know that others are reflected in you, to realize that the divine
is circular, that the purity of childhood is at the same point as spiritual enlightenment.
They are one and the same.
One is not better than the other.
Play is pray.
Pray is play.
Meaning.
If your spiritual devotion is so uptight that
you cannot laugh at yourself and enjoy the moment, you're missing the mark.
And the affirmation for this new moon is.
My ideas evolved to maturity with ease.
So in this month of June, we have the solstice point aligning, and the solstice moment is
going to be very key in our movement forward.
And I'll be coming in with a fresh podcast and
more consistency with that transmission and a whole new sort of structure with the way I'm
offering my body of work through earthseed temple arts.
So between now and then, I do encourage you to sign up for Earthseed and skywalkers.
These courses will be launching the week of solstice, the third week, the 18th, and the 19
June of 2024.
The 19 June is my 44th solar return, and I
would love to circle up with you in Earthseed and or skywalkers.
I have a earth to sky bundle if you want to take both courses.
These are the signature foundational courses I've created within the Golden Gate Esoterica,
and there are many more offerings coming through.
However, these are the foundational courses that create the structure of this entire
Golden Gate esoterica.
So I really encourage you, if you've not taken
these courses, I encourage you to do so.
I've cultivated them since the year of 2020,
so it's four years.
I've taught them each multiple times.
And so there is the layering of time and space, and there's so much wisdom and
knowledge within each of these courses.
And I have felt from the very beginning how
important it is to lay down this solid understanding, this vocabulary, these
practices and principles, and to build upon them step by step, so that every initiate
within the Golden Gate Esoterica has a strengthened nervous system that can hold the
expansive field we will travel within.
As these teachings evolve and develop, a
strong and steady nervous system is key.
It is essential for these times.
And I'm also really excited to be unveiling sooner rather than later.
I can't give you an estimated date just yet, but I've been filming an elemental kundalini
activation course, which is essentially the Jed pillar that sits between Earthseed and
skywalkers.
I'm so excited for this course to be complete,
and I'm so excited to share it with you and for you to really get a sense as the initiate
of where we're going through this journey within the Golden Gate Esoterica.
And what is possible, what is possible for each one of us in this new earth renaissance,
when we apply these sacred teachings into our lives on the daily, in a loving and expansive
way, free of dogma, but full of devotion.
So mercury is the frequency we're really
turning to at this moment, because mercury rules Gemini and Virgo, and mercury is your
capacity to think, to speak, to learn, to reason.
And mercury rules the central nervous system, a communication network of billions of
interconnected cells which carry messages to and from the brain.
Like an electronic switching network, Mercury also rules the respiratory system, the lungs,
the bronchi, the windpipe, the nose.
And again, mercury connects to Hermes, to
thoth, to Houthi, to Merlin as the psychopomp.
Mercury has this ability to travel between the
realms and relay information from this world to the otherworld, the world of the gods and
the goddesses.
This skillful expression is about
communication, about being intelligent, about being clever.
The unskillful is to be over intellectual, to be restless, over talkative and cunning.
At this moment, as we claim this butterfly frequency on this Gemini new moon, you are
within a process of metamorphosis.
There are four distinct the egg, the
fertilization process, where we give birth to an idea, the larvae, where the egg becomes a
caterpillar, the strengthening of the intention, solidifying the foundation, the
shaping of the clay, the chrysalis, where a cocoon is woven around itself by the
caterpillar.
And the mummy like pupa forms the pupusa.
Even though it seems like life has come to a standstill, we become passive in the creative
process.
And from here, a new light is birthed to the
winged insect, to rebirth, to this journey of going within, to birth anew, to give the dream
flight.
So I call upon you.
I call upon you as a starseed, heralding from many timelines, various realities, to say yes.
Here on earth, many things are dissolving.
Where have you idolized the past?
Where have the traumas of fallen cultures riddled your bones?
Remember, we are an intergalactic family.
We are representatives of a multitude of
starseed nations.
We are made of stardust, and that is a fact.
We are the Magdalenes.
We are the holy ones, here to embody life in
the flesh.
With that, I wish you many blessings at the
gate of this Gemini new moon.
Again, I invite you to step into the portal of
earthseed and skywalkers, and I look forward to being in touch with you here and there with
a speckling as I'm on my pilgrimage.
And then really anchoring in deep with you,
come this June solstice of 2024.
May there be peace to the east, to the south,
to the west and the north.
May that peace anchor deep into the heart of
Mother Earth, spiraling out into the cosmos and threading right back into the center of
your heart.
And may this peace be for the liberation of
all beings through time and space.
And so it is.
Blessed be.
Thank you so much for sharing sacred space.
May this episode be for the liberation of all beings through the cosmos.
