1 00:00:04,315 --> 00:00:06,842 Welcome to It's Astrological. 2 00:00:06,842 --> 00:00:10,802 This is the podcast for exploring astrology as self care and providing you 3 00:00:10,802 --> 00:00:14,762 with different perspectives to help you connect the dots between the stars and 4 00:00:14,762 --> 00:00:16,742 your own patterns, behaviors, and cycles. 5 00:00:19,307 --> 00:00:24,099 I'm your host, Lynnette Wennerstrom, founder of Cosmic Moves Astrology and, 6 00:00:24,264 --> 00:00:26,184 this is the first official episode. 7 00:00:26,184 --> 00:00:30,170 So I'm a little nervous, but also super excited. 8 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:36,672 This project has been in the back of my mind for awhile now, and I'm putting it 9 00:00:36,672 --> 00:00:42,748 out into the world because I took on this heroic, imperfect action challenge, which 10 00:00:42,958 --> 00:00:47,027 you'll know about if you're a member of my newsletter, The Constellation. 11 00:00:47,514 --> 00:00:54,706 But I basically had 30 days to conceptualize, plan, get 12 00:00:54,726 --> 00:00:56,736 my logistics all sorted out. 13 00:00:56,786 --> 00:01:01,800 Figure out what my, topics we're going to be and my philosophy and all that, 14 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:07,890 and put it out into the world . I don't know a ton about podcasting, but I know 15 00:01:07,890 --> 00:01:12,362 that a lot of people take a lot longer than 30 days to set all of that up. 16 00:01:12,383 --> 00:01:15,843 The point is to put it out into the world, even though it's not perfect. 17 00:01:16,203 --> 00:01:23,316 And to celebrate that as a, heroic and imperfect action because it's creating 18 00:01:23,316 --> 00:01:26,136 something and it's brave and it's fun. 19 00:01:26,166 --> 00:01:31,246 And this stuff doesn't have to be taken so seriously because all I'm doing is 20 00:01:31,266 --> 00:01:38,106 talking about astrology with you and with my friends and with strangers. 21 00:01:38,736 --> 00:01:40,516 And we'll see where this goes. 22 00:01:41,026 --> 00:01:43,775 If you don't know me, hello, I'm Lynnette. 23 00:01:44,185 --> 00:01:47,305 If you do know me also, hi, thank you for listening. 24 00:01:47,935 --> 00:01:49,405 Here's a little bit more about me. 25 00:01:49,945 --> 00:01:54,515 I'm an Aquarius sun, a Virgo rising and a Leo moon. 26 00:01:54,906 --> 00:01:57,426 I'm a one-three generator in human design. 27 00:01:58,326 --> 00:02:00,636 I'm an INFJ in Myers-Briggs. 28 00:02:01,326 --> 00:02:05,766 Basically all that means I'm an introverted homebody who loves to learn. 29 00:02:06,276 --> 00:02:08,046 I love to categorize things. 30 00:02:08,916 --> 00:02:13,656 And I have what can sometimes be a diametrical opposition between 31 00:02:13,715 --> 00:02:17,075 needing to follow the rules, but also being totally out there. 32 00:02:17,495 --> 00:02:21,905 And that's something that I've learned to embrace and dance with in recent years. 33 00:02:22,865 --> 00:02:30,335 It's just a part of me, part of my chart and that's how life and astrology goes. 34 00:02:31,145 --> 00:02:34,715 If you don't know what any of those things are, do not worry. 35 00:02:35,135 --> 00:02:38,915 I very much prescribe to the, if it resonates with you, keep it. 36 00:02:38,915 --> 00:02:40,685 If it doesn't let it go philosophy. 37 00:02:40,685 --> 00:02:46,865 So you will either learn more about these things by listening to It's Astrological. 38 00:02:47,285 --> 00:02:51,575 Or you can leave it by the wayside and just listen for the conversations and the 39 00:02:51,605 --> 00:02:55,235 insights and the fun that is sure to come. 40 00:02:55,873 --> 00:02:58,603 Astrology has been part of my life since I was a little girl. 41 00:02:58,750 --> 00:03:00,490 My mom always had books about. 42 00:03:00,526 --> 00:03:04,126 Astrology numerology handwriting analysis everywhere. 43 00:03:04,153 --> 00:03:06,883 And I was super into it in middle school and high school. 44 00:03:07,143 --> 00:03:12,513 And I had a bit of an astrological renaissance, a spiritual renaissance 45 00:03:12,513 --> 00:03:14,733 when I went to graduate school in 2015. 46 00:03:14,816 --> 00:03:18,250 I was fortunate enough to spend two years. 47 00:03:18,288 --> 00:03:20,598 In stunning Monterey, California. 48 00:03:20,608 --> 00:03:25,315 And, I was taking a break from working full time to get my 49 00:03:25,315 --> 00:03:27,995 master's degree in translation. 50 00:03:28,595 --> 00:03:30,545 And localization, which that's okay. 51 00:03:30,545 --> 00:03:31,595 If you don't know what that is either. 52 00:03:32,195 --> 00:03:39,905 But it's really interesting because number one, I had the time to kind of rediscover 53 00:03:40,685 --> 00:03:46,595 things like my spirituality, reconnecting with astrology, numerology, all the things 54 00:03:46,625 --> 00:03:49,085 that I was super connected to growing up. 55 00:03:49,925 --> 00:03:57,545 But two I was learning the craft and the art of translation. 56 00:03:58,115 --> 00:04:02,345 I think that being an astrologer is, really when it comes down to it, 57 00:04:02,504 --> 00:04:04,544 being the translator of the cosmos. 58 00:04:05,084 --> 00:04:09,554 And interpreting the energies and how they play out for us 59 00:04:09,554 --> 00:04:11,907 here on earth in the 3d world. 60 00:04:11,907 --> 00:04:17,279 So it dovetailed beautifully because I was learning the art of 61 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,562 communicating one language into another. 62 00:04:20,562 --> 00:04:23,532 And that's also where I discovered locational astrology, 63 00:04:23,532 --> 00:04:27,898 which really supercharged my studying astrology in earnest. 64 00:04:27,904 --> 00:04:29,626 It's when I started taking courses. 65 00:04:29,626 --> 00:04:34,096 It's when I went down all the rabbit holes that astrology can provide. 66 00:04:34,786 --> 00:04:39,526 Because to me, I'm a multilingual, multicultural, 67 00:04:39,526 --> 00:04:41,409 pretty well-traveled person. 68 00:04:41,469 --> 00:04:45,257 And when I discovered locational astrology, my mind was absolutely blown. 69 00:04:45,257 --> 00:04:48,927 Because it brought together all of the things that I loved: 70 00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:55,291 astrology, travel, language, culture, and I guess self discovery. 71 00:04:55,353 --> 00:04:57,873 Locational astrology is something that I'm sure I will talk about so 72 00:04:57,873 --> 00:05:02,793 much because it makes me so happy, but basically, if you look at your natal 73 00:05:02,793 --> 00:05:06,936 astrology chart which, many of you listening to this probably already have. 74 00:05:07,253 --> 00:05:13,723 It's this big circle with 12 different pizza pie slices and different planetary 75 00:05:13,723 --> 00:05:17,572 symbols and lots of lines crossing, it can be overwhelming if you don't 76 00:05:17,572 --> 00:05:18,772 really know what you're looking at. 77 00:05:18,940 --> 00:05:22,530 But what locational astrology does is it takes that whole beautiful 78 00:05:22,530 --> 00:05:27,672 circle and it puts your unique energies across a map of the world. 79 00:05:27,965 --> 00:05:32,088 And it tells you which energies are unique to you in different 80 00:05:32,088 --> 00:05:34,398 places and spaces in the world. 81 00:05:34,398 --> 00:05:38,855 So instead of looking at astrology from a temporal perspective, from time in 82 00:05:38,855 --> 00:05:42,605 terms of either, I was born at this time, and this is what happened to 83 00:05:42,605 --> 00:05:47,095 me on this day, it's the astrology of where in the world am I aligned with 84 00:05:47,095 --> 00:05:48,835 these energies and how do I feel? 85 00:05:48,911 --> 00:05:52,931 And at the time, I didn't know this until, I came back to Colorado. 86 00:05:52,931 --> 00:05:57,851 But I had been on a line that is associated with the planet that's 87 00:05:57,851 --> 00:06:02,141 associated with astrology, and breakthroughs, and being your most 88 00:06:02,141 --> 00:06:05,222 authentic self, that's Uranus, is the planet that I'm talking about. 89 00:06:05,302 --> 00:06:07,502 That was really a turning point for me. 90 00:06:07,502 --> 00:06:12,542 In not only finding a piece of astrology, that was the key to me 91 00:06:12,592 --> 00:06:17,362 learning more and digging into it, but also the awareness that comes from 92 00:06:17,362 --> 00:06:19,102 the validation that astrology brings. 93 00:06:19,102 --> 00:06:22,792 Whether it's, oh my gosh, this all happened while I was on my Uranus line. 94 00:06:22,852 --> 00:06:23,842 Isn't that crazy? 95 00:06:23,842 --> 00:06:29,302 Or, this all happened at this time when I was meant to be connecting 96 00:06:29,302 --> 00:06:33,892 to my higher education and my worldview and my philosophy. 97 00:06:33,892 --> 00:06:34,882 All of this is true. 98 00:06:34,912 --> 00:06:38,692 And that's why every time I read someone's chart or I look at 99 00:06:38,692 --> 00:06:41,152 mine I'm always just blown away! 100 00:06:41,206 --> 00:06:41,806 Every time! 101 00:06:42,056 --> 00:06:46,366 No matter how many times I read a chart or look at my own, I'm 102 00:06:46,366 --> 00:06:52,246 constantly just shocked at how accurate and validating astrology can be. 103 00:06:52,277 --> 00:06:55,847 So that's how we came to be here together on It's Astrological. 104 00:06:55,997 --> 00:06:56,327 But. 105 00:06:56,957 --> 00:07:01,307 I want to tell you a little bit more about my philosophy when it comes to astrology. 106 00:07:01,307 --> 00:07:03,577 Because to my point before I've taken, what's resonated 107 00:07:03,577 --> 00:07:04,840 with me and left the rest. 108 00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:07,210 So I practice what I call holistic astrology 109 00:07:07,570 --> 00:07:12,010 From a practical perspective, it means using a holistic toolbox, 110 00:07:12,010 --> 00:07:13,330 not leaving anything out. 111 00:07:13,408 --> 00:07:15,778 Astrology has been around for thousands of years, there's a lot 112 00:07:15,778 --> 00:07:17,218 of different ways to look at it. 113 00:07:17,218 --> 00:07:22,198 So for me, that means tapping into traditional astrology, which is ancient 114 00:07:22,198 --> 00:07:26,998 astrology, modern astrology of today and new techniques, locational astrology, 115 00:07:26,998 --> 00:07:28,378 obviously, because I love that. 116 00:07:28,909 --> 00:07:34,219 But also tapping into my intuition, pulling cards to see what the 117 00:07:34,219 --> 00:07:37,579 tarot deck has to say, or the Oracle decks that I'm using. 118 00:07:37,579 --> 00:07:41,749 And generally working under this umbrella of spirituality and connecting the 119 00:07:41,749 --> 00:07:47,228 science behind the astrology, and dare I say the geometry and math, says the 120 00:07:47,228 --> 00:07:52,940 linguist, and connecting that to what that means for our spirit and who we are. 121 00:07:52,940 --> 00:07:55,520 Because, yes, that's our holistic toolbox. 122 00:07:55,610 --> 00:07:59,380 But the whole point of this is that we are whole people it's important 123 00:07:59,380 --> 00:08:01,840 to remember that you are prismatic. 124 00:08:01,930 --> 00:08:03,520 You are multi-dimensional. 125 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,260 You are a whole person. 126 00:08:05,260 --> 00:08:06,820 You are not just your sun sign. 127 00:08:06,820 --> 00:08:08,260 You are not just your moon sign. 128 00:08:08,260 --> 00:08:09,880 You are not just your rising sign. 129 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:14,710 We all have all of the planets and all of the stars in us. 130 00:08:14,710 --> 00:08:17,890 And they all express themselves in a unique way to us. 131 00:08:17,890 --> 00:08:20,350 So basically you are your own constellation. 132 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,130 The holistic approach really makes sure that underlying everything 133 00:08:24,130 --> 00:08:27,880 that we talk about is taking into account that you're a whole person. 134 00:08:28,540 --> 00:08:31,900 That we grow into our charts over an entire lifetime. 135 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,160 So if there's something that we talk about, or that you read about when you're 136 00:08:36,190 --> 00:08:40,407 studying your chart, that doesn't really resonate with you know that maybe you 137 00:08:40,407 --> 00:08:43,377 just aren't at the stage in your life where you're meant to learn about that. 138 00:08:43,377 --> 00:08:47,233 Or maybe you still have time to grow into that or to understand it. 139 00:08:47,235 --> 00:08:48,525 Our charts never change. 140 00:08:48,525 --> 00:08:51,345 They even stay with us after we die, so that energy, that 141 00:08:51,345 --> 00:08:53,865 imprint is there forever. 142 00:08:53,865 --> 00:08:58,475 And it's your cosmic fingerprint, your cosmic blueprint, so learning your 143 00:08:58,475 --> 00:09:04,205 chart, learning about astrology allows you to take the ups and downs of life. 144 00:09:04,625 --> 00:09:09,015 Into account, to live consciously because you know what the energies are 145 00:09:09,015 --> 00:09:11,125 doing, you know, how to prepare for them. 146 00:09:11,425 --> 00:09:15,667 You may not know exactly what's going to happen, but you're able to step 147 00:09:15,667 --> 00:09:17,737 into your agency, and your free will. 148 00:09:17,820 --> 00:09:20,580 A lot of people think that astrology is just fortune-telling 149 00:09:20,610 --> 00:09:22,170 and how could this even work? 150 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:27,480 Because everyone can't be divided into 12 different groups and be the same and all 151 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,910 of the things that the skeptics say, but. 152 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,730 That's also an underlying tenant of holistic astrology. 153 00:09:32,730 --> 00:09:34,350 You're not just your sun sign. 154 00:09:34,350 --> 00:09:36,210 You are every single planet. 155 00:09:36,563 --> 00:09:42,323 You are able to decide how you're going to engage with each energy and where 156 00:09:42,323 --> 00:09:43,583 you're going to take your next step. 157 00:09:44,243 --> 00:09:47,033 So holistic astrology really takes into account that 158 00:09:47,063 --> 00:09:48,893 nothing is all good or all bad. 159 00:09:49,433 --> 00:09:51,233 Some energies might be more challenging. 160 00:09:51,350 --> 00:09:56,300 Some might be more easeful and both of those align with 161 00:09:56,330 --> 00:09:58,250 your unique cosmic rhythms. 162 00:09:58,640 --> 00:09:59,840 Your divine timing. 163 00:10:00,093 --> 00:10:05,553 One of the things that made me want to do this podcast was to talk to 164 00:10:05,553 --> 00:10:09,213 different people about their charts and how the energy expresses itself. 165 00:10:09,733 --> 00:10:14,673 In astrology one person can have a Leo sun and be very different from the 166 00:10:14,673 --> 00:10:16,443 person next to them who has a Leo sun. 167 00:10:16,983 --> 00:10:18,003 Those skeptics are right. 168 00:10:18,093 --> 00:10:21,985 You cannot divide the whole world into 12 different categories. 169 00:10:22,035 --> 00:10:26,235 The energies express themselves in infinite ways and it's all on a spectrum. 170 00:10:26,265 --> 00:10:32,145 So hearing other people talk about their charts can be really informative because 171 00:10:32,175 --> 00:10:36,015 they can mirror back to us things that either we resonate with or we don't. 172 00:10:36,105 --> 00:10:40,035 And then we continue to learn about our self discovery and what that means for us. 173 00:10:40,498 --> 00:10:41,518 So how will we do that? 174 00:10:41,788 --> 00:10:43,318 What can you expect from this podcast? 175 00:10:43,318 --> 00:10:44,098 How exciting! 176 00:10:44,518 --> 00:10:46,468 Well, A lot will be a surprise. 177 00:10:46,948 --> 00:10:48,748 Since I am just getting started. 178 00:10:48,754 --> 00:10:53,084 This heroic, imperfect action thing, kind of collapses the timeline of 179 00:10:53,114 --> 00:10:58,105 planning and logistics, which my Virgo rising gets really anxious about. 180 00:10:58,105 --> 00:10:59,077 But it's so good for me. 181 00:10:59,287 --> 00:11:02,077 So your input will be amazing. 182 00:11:02,077 --> 00:11:07,087 To help shape future episodes and where this podcast goes and who I talk to. 183 00:11:07,111 --> 00:11:09,361 But as a starter, you can expect. 184 00:11:09,361 --> 00:11:10,151 Doo doo doo! 185 00:11:10,201 --> 00:11:10,831 Astrology! 186 00:11:11,221 --> 00:11:12,001 What a surprise. 187 00:11:12,631 --> 00:11:16,351 But it's not going to be your run of the mill horoscopes or celebrity charts. 188 00:11:16,351 --> 00:11:20,323 But really looking at it from an individual perspective, one-on-one 189 00:11:20,323 --> 00:11:23,803 conversations with people about how astrology shows up in their daily life. 190 00:11:24,193 --> 00:11:25,649 And a learner's perspective. 191 00:11:25,649 --> 00:11:27,882 You do not have to have a PhD in astrology. 192 00:11:27,942 --> 00:11:29,772 I don't even have a PhD in astrology. 193 00:11:29,772 --> 00:11:32,502 You don't even have to know your own chart, but you probably will 194 00:11:32,502 --> 00:11:35,742 want to, once you start listening, because it's so fascinating. 195 00:11:35,851 --> 00:11:40,877 I really just want this to be conversational, so you can expect 196 00:11:40,877 --> 00:11:46,397 conversations with real life people about how astrology shows up, how it plays a 197 00:11:46,397 --> 00:11:52,007 role, how it surprised them, what they're skeptical about, all in their daily lives. 198 00:11:52,299 --> 00:11:55,029 I often have learned the most about my own chart. 199 00:11:55,389 --> 00:11:58,929 By listening to other people talk about theirs, just hearing 200 00:11:58,929 --> 00:12:02,139 all the different ways that a certain energy can express itself. 201 00:12:02,659 --> 00:12:08,329 I'll be very honest, my Leo moon is one of the things that has elluded me forever. 202 00:12:08,779 --> 00:12:09,709 I still don't get it. 203 00:12:10,002 --> 00:12:14,698 But every time I talked to somebody with a Leo moon it does exactly 204 00:12:14,698 --> 00:12:15,748 what we were just talking about. 205 00:12:15,757 --> 00:12:20,570 It mirrors back to me a piece that does resonate with me or does not, 206 00:12:20,630 --> 00:12:25,594 and I can start working through why that may be based on other placements 207 00:12:25,624 --> 00:12:27,064 or transits or things like that. 208 00:12:27,144 --> 00:12:34,121 So I hope that by just listening to other people, normal people just regular 209 00:12:34,121 --> 00:12:35,891 people talking about their charts. 210 00:12:36,251 --> 00:12:38,383 Number one, you'll learn more about astrology. 211 00:12:38,383 --> 00:12:40,753 And number two, you'll learn more about yourself and your chart. 212 00:12:40,753 --> 00:12:44,713 Number three, you'll just meet all these cool new people who 213 00:12:44,713 --> 00:12:46,123 I have the honor to talk to. 214 00:12:46,409 --> 00:12:51,750 And right now, those people include some of my friends, some of my colleagues, 215 00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:56,250 some healers, practitioners, people across the world with different backgrounds, 216 00:12:56,250 --> 00:12:58,361 different languages, different ages. 217 00:12:58,961 --> 00:13:02,501 I also hope to meet people who might be strangers now, but will 218 00:13:02,501 --> 00:13:03,791 not be after I talked to them. 219 00:13:04,451 --> 00:13:09,201 I have my eye on the certified cheese professional at my local whole foods. 220 00:13:09,205 --> 00:13:11,845 He came up and talked to my mom and I a couple of months ago. 221 00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:14,896 And I said, I wish I had a podcast, so I could interview you. 222 00:13:15,376 --> 00:13:17,956 I knew nothing about certified cheese professionals, but basically 223 00:13:17,956 --> 00:13:20,596 they are sommeliers for cheese. 224 00:13:21,286 --> 00:13:22,186 I love cheese. 225 00:13:22,276 --> 00:13:26,366 And there's a whole certification, like hours of work that goes into this, 226 00:13:26,366 --> 00:13:32,282 and you may be asking yourself, how will she connect cheese to astrology? 227 00:13:32,792 --> 00:13:33,902 I promise you, I will. 228 00:13:34,488 --> 00:13:35,328 I have a book. 229 00:13:35,494 --> 00:13:39,064 That literally you can look up almost anything and it will tell you 230 00:13:39,394 --> 00:13:41,074 what it is ruled by an astrology. 231 00:13:41,074 --> 00:13:44,284 This will probably not be a surprise once I tell you, but 232 00:13:44,284 --> 00:13:45,724 cheese is ruled by the moon. 233 00:13:46,234 --> 00:13:49,894 And my guess is that this man has never had his chart done, if 234 00:13:49,894 --> 00:13:53,242 he has Bravo, but I think even that is super interesting, right? 235 00:13:53,256 --> 00:13:55,686 Talking to somebody who's never had their chart done, may or 236 00:13:55,686 --> 00:14:00,006 may not believe in astrology and being able to connect those dots. 237 00:14:00,036 --> 00:14:01,086 That's what this is all about. 238 00:14:01,086 --> 00:14:02,346 Connecting the dots. 239 00:14:02,886 --> 00:14:06,906 And asking the question: how does astrology show up in your daily life? 240 00:14:06,936 --> 00:14:08,166 Whether you know it or not? 241 00:14:08,999 --> 00:14:11,279 So, what do I want you to get out of this podcast? 242 00:14:11,924 --> 00:14:17,004 One, I want you to receive the empowerment that comes from 243 00:14:17,004 --> 00:14:19,044 understanding astrology and your chart. 244 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,990 For me, astrology was the framework that helped me to better understand 245 00:14:24,990 --> 00:14:27,030 myself and the world around me. 246 00:14:27,264 --> 00:14:31,246 My Virgo rising loves to organize things and categorize things. 247 00:14:31,696 --> 00:14:36,948 And astrology makes sense for me because there's multiple ways to do that, to 248 00:14:36,948 --> 00:14:41,208 categorize, to connect things, and I want to share that gift with you. 249 00:14:41,388 --> 00:14:43,248 There's a lot of different modalities, right? 250 00:14:43,248 --> 00:14:44,898 So some people are attracted to astrology. 251 00:14:44,928 --> 00:14:47,688 Some people are attracted to human design or the enneagram. 252 00:14:48,168 --> 00:14:51,544 For me astrology made perfect sense when I saw it. 253 00:14:51,588 --> 00:14:54,138 But when I see human design, I'm like, Whoa. 254 00:14:54,408 --> 00:14:56,868 that is like way super complicated. 255 00:14:56,868 --> 00:14:57,928 I'll never understand it. 256 00:14:57,987 --> 00:15:00,717 But I know a lot of human design practitioners feel 257 00:15:00,927 --> 00:15:02,397 the same way about astrology. 258 00:15:02,697 --> 00:15:09,472 So I love that today in this world, we're able to layer on these different 259 00:15:09,592 --> 00:15:14,902 tools and technologies and ways of understanding the world so that we can 260 00:15:14,902 --> 00:15:16,612 support ourselves and support each other. 261 00:15:16,706 --> 00:15:21,416 The other thing that I hope you get out of this podcast and learning more 262 00:15:21,416 --> 00:15:27,756 about astrology, is the gift of giving yourself grace, the gift of trusting 263 00:15:27,756 --> 00:15:33,243 yourself, trusting your rhythms and your unique timing, trusting 264 00:15:33,273 --> 00:15:35,013 your character and your growth. 265 00:15:35,549 --> 00:15:42,123 Astrology is so, so powerful because it allows us to not feel 266 00:15:42,123 --> 00:15:43,863 like we have to be anyone else. 267 00:15:44,433 --> 00:15:49,346 It provides us with the validation that we are who we are for a reason. 268 00:15:49,527 --> 00:15:53,637 And that the energies that we're working with, whether they're 269 00:15:53,677 --> 00:15:58,308 challenging or easeful are supporting us for our soul growth. 270 00:15:58,788 --> 00:16:03,348 They are supporting us in becoming our most authentic self. 271 00:16:03,888 --> 00:16:08,968 Nobody has an astrology chart like yours, yours is completely unique, even if you're 272 00:16:08,968 --> 00:16:10,768 a twin or a triplet, or a quadruplet. 273 00:16:11,428 --> 00:16:15,272 Nobody has a chart like yours because of those infinite ways 274 00:16:15,272 --> 00:16:16,952 that the energy can express itself. 275 00:16:17,192 --> 00:16:19,922 So, it releases the pressure of feeling like you have to be 276 00:16:19,922 --> 00:16:21,662 like anybody else by yourself. 277 00:16:22,308 --> 00:16:25,338 What I also want you to get out of this podcast is the daily 278 00:16:25,338 --> 00:16:27,168 magique, the magic in the world. 279 00:16:27,309 --> 00:16:30,199 Connecting to the numinous, the etheral. 280 00:16:30,419 --> 00:16:35,069 Finding the synchronicities and the mystical magic in everyday life and 281 00:16:35,279 --> 00:16:40,349 letting all of those things bring you joy and awe and the inspiration 282 00:16:40,349 --> 00:16:43,889 to really connect to something that's bigger than yourself. 283 00:16:43,889 --> 00:16:48,200 That's bigger than this 3d world that we're all living in with bills and kids 284 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,350 and pets and jobs and all of those things. 285 00:16:51,710 --> 00:16:56,720 Being able to have that regular connection to the cosmos and the 286 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,860 universe and the stars that have been around for millions of years. 287 00:17:00,918 --> 00:17:05,318 I think all of that is very awe inspiring and in the most spiritual sense of 288 00:17:05,318 --> 00:17:10,183 the world, you feel like you're a blip in the timeline of history and 289 00:17:10,183 --> 00:17:13,483 being able to be connected to that, I think really gives us some perspective 290 00:17:13,483 --> 00:17:16,933 about all of that other stuff that we deal with on a day-to-day basis. 291 00:17:17,509 --> 00:17:22,505 Finally, what I want you to get out of this podcast is a safe space to land. 292 00:17:22,966 --> 00:17:31,216 I have always wanted my practice, my conversations, my readings, this podcast, 293 00:17:31,576 --> 00:17:36,596 anything associated with Cosmic Moves, to feel like your home for astrology. 294 00:17:36,664 --> 00:17:43,834 And that home is cozy, and protected, and has lots of nice soft places to 295 00:17:43,834 --> 00:17:50,534 sit and read a book and drink a hot cup of tea, has beautiful art, and just 296 00:17:50,534 --> 00:17:59,574 makes you feel like you can relax your shoulders, just take a breath and relax. 297 00:17:59,964 --> 00:18:03,654 So that you can tap into your intuition, so that you can learn new things. 298 00:18:04,434 --> 00:18:11,140 To me, this home is full of good food and good drinks, and you just 299 00:18:11,140 --> 00:18:15,070 feel like it's a safe space to land. 300 00:18:15,580 --> 00:18:22,360 When you come here, I want you to feel nourished and comforted and 301 00:18:22,360 --> 00:18:26,470 protected and like you can relax and you can take that breath. 302 00:18:27,470 --> 00:18:34,260 And I want you to be able to take in the new information and to really 303 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:40,350 have the space to open your mind and think about things in a different 304 00:18:40,350 --> 00:18:41,850 way and not be afraid of that. 305 00:18:41,951 --> 00:18:46,001 Sometimes hard stuff does come up, we'll handle that with care and with 306 00:18:46,001 --> 00:18:49,431 grace and give you a soft place to land. 307 00:18:49,432 --> 00:18:53,418 When you're having questions about those challenging things or living 308 00:18:53,418 --> 00:18:59,032 through them, I really want this to feel like an astrological hug for you. 309 00:18:59,542 --> 00:19:05,167 And when I go to the coziest home I know, my mom's house, in the spirit 310 00:19:05,167 --> 00:19:10,297 of that, I hope to always send you home with a full belly of delicious 311 00:19:10,297 --> 00:19:12,517 and nutritious and comforting food. 312 00:19:12,997 --> 00:19:18,397 And send you home with extra food that you can keep chewing 313 00:19:18,397 --> 00:19:19,897 on for the next few days. 314 00:19:20,356 --> 00:19:21,256 I'll be honest with you. 315 00:19:21,256 --> 00:19:24,976 This is the second time I am recording this because the first time I had 316 00:19:25,006 --> 00:19:27,346 technical issues, and it just disappeared. 317 00:19:27,856 --> 00:19:28,636 Totally fine. 318 00:19:28,636 --> 00:19:30,631 Everything happens with divine timing. 319 00:19:30,631 --> 00:19:33,581 But the first time I was talking about this, I got choked up, 320 00:19:33,611 --> 00:19:34,751 which is happening right now. 321 00:19:35,231 --> 00:19:36,071 And. 322 00:19:37,271 --> 00:19:41,495 I think it's really important that you know, that this is 323 00:19:41,495 --> 00:19:46,159 important to me because I love you. 324 00:19:47,179 --> 00:19:48,409 I may not even know you. 325 00:19:48,709 --> 00:19:55,729 But, my love for you as a soul is very genuine. 326 00:19:56,239 --> 00:20:05,249 And the gifts that I want to share with you through my guidance as a teacher, 327 00:20:05,639 --> 00:20:10,049 as a friend, are very important to me. 328 00:20:11,049 --> 00:20:14,679 I also did not expect that this was what I was going to get 329 00:20:14,679 --> 00:20:16,416 out of this particular podcast. 330 00:20:16,479 --> 00:20:20,829 But the emotion is real because I'm so passionate about being a 331 00:20:20,829 --> 00:20:26,829 guide and supporting you on your astrological journey, on your spiritual 332 00:20:26,829 --> 00:20:29,619 journey and just connecting to you. 333 00:20:29,619 --> 00:20:31,599 So, here we are. 334 00:20:31,970 --> 00:20:33,800 Crying for the second time tonight. 335 00:20:35,060 --> 00:20:40,370 but I was in a class today and it reminded me that in the world of Cosmic 336 00:20:40,370 --> 00:20:46,000 Moves that you are the hero of the Cosmic Moves story and I am the guide. 337 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,430 I am just here to serve you. 338 00:20:49,090 --> 00:20:55,240 What an honor it is to be in that role and to be able to support you in that way, 339 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,260 whether it's through a reading, whether it's through an episode of this podcast, 340 00:20:59,770 --> 00:21:03,160 whether it's through a DM on Instagram. 341 00:21:03,630 --> 00:21:07,530 My heart is so full just thinking about the connections that I have 342 00:21:07,530 --> 00:21:10,090 made and I will make, with all of you. 343 00:21:10,392 --> 00:21:19,662 And as the hero of the journey, it's you to find your path, to 344 00:21:19,852 --> 00:21:21,292 go through that hero's journey. 345 00:21:21,402 --> 00:21:27,942 To face your challenge, and to overcome it and to ultimately triumph 346 00:21:28,092 --> 00:21:30,252 and be your most authentic self. 347 00:21:30,345 --> 00:21:34,952 And I hope with me as one of your many guides and teachers that you will be 348 00:21:34,952 --> 00:21:41,545 able to feel validated, to explore different sides of yourself, to understand 349 00:21:41,545 --> 00:21:46,465 your relationships with other people, to understand what makes you, you. 350 00:21:46,588 --> 00:21:52,468 So with that, all that deep, deep talk I pulled some cards today to kind of 351 00:21:52,468 --> 00:21:58,213 explore what my hero, you, is looking for and how I can best serve you. 352 00:21:58,753 --> 00:22:04,487 And I wanted to share one of the descriptions from one of the cards that I 353 00:22:04,487 --> 00:22:07,337 pulled, because, frankly, it is magical. 354 00:22:07,724 --> 00:22:10,564 And I pulled, using the Kim Krans archetype deck. 355 00:22:10,594 --> 00:22:11,914 It's one of my favorites. 356 00:22:11,914 --> 00:22:16,954 It's round and beautiful and just so insightful. 357 00:22:17,494 --> 00:22:22,614 And the question was, what gold can I offer to my heroes? 358 00:22:23,554 --> 00:22:26,794 How can I best serve and delight you? 359 00:22:26,874 --> 00:22:29,064 And I pulled a card called the forest. 360 00:22:29,664 --> 00:22:32,214 I'm going to read this and I promise, I won't read out loud to 361 00:22:32,214 --> 00:22:35,004 you, hopefully ever again, but. 362 00:22:35,717 --> 00:22:38,357 Okay, I'm just going to read it because here's the magic. 363 00:22:39,437 --> 00:22:42,437 Consider for a moment, your earliest memory of the forest. 364 00:22:42,977 --> 00:22:46,607 It's likely included all the mythic dynamics of this archetypal space. 365 00:22:46,877 --> 00:22:50,177 A little fear, a little enchantment, perhaps losing your way. 366 00:22:50,477 --> 00:22:52,607 Perhaps discovering a secret mystical treasure. 367 00:22:53,057 --> 00:22:57,497 Such is the magic of the forest, it requires first that you enter it and 368 00:22:57,497 --> 00:22:58,787 then that you get lost within it. 369 00:22:59,117 --> 00:23:02,357 You may think there's a path to lead you straight through, but soon enough you'll 370 00:23:02,357 --> 00:23:04,307 be on what is known as the pathless path. 371 00:23:04,877 --> 00:23:08,237 There are tricksters here, dense foliage and entanglement, but equally 372 00:23:08,237 --> 00:23:11,777 present are the glimmers of fairy light and friends among the trees. 373 00:23:12,407 --> 00:23:14,837 You're on an adventure now, and there's no turning back. 374 00:23:14,987 --> 00:23:18,497 So embrace the dim light and the moving shadows, whether literal 375 00:23:18,497 --> 00:23:22,037 or imaginal, brave the forest and get lost to getting found. 376 00:23:22,637 --> 00:23:23,267 Oh, my gosh. 377 00:23:23,327 --> 00:23:25,547 Isn't that so powerful? 378 00:23:26,597 --> 00:23:30,387 I think why it's super, super, super resonated with me s because if we're 379 00:23:30,387 --> 00:23:36,254 talking about the gold nuggets, the opportunities to support you, the hero 380 00:23:36,254 --> 00:23:40,434 of your own journey, you can basically replace the forest in this with astrology. 381 00:23:40,694 --> 00:23:46,491 So if we're talking about the magic of astrology, it includes a little fear. 382 00:23:46,917 --> 00:23:49,287 Fear of shadow parts of ourselves. 383 00:23:49,687 --> 00:23:53,737 Maybe some of those things that you've heard are bad, but there's no good or bad 384 00:23:53,737 --> 00:23:55,357 in astrology, I'll remind you of that. 385 00:23:55,867 --> 00:23:56,857 A little enchantment. 386 00:23:57,037 --> 00:23:59,017 Oh my gosh, astrology is magic. 387 00:23:59,047 --> 00:24:00,037 Very enchanting. 388 00:24:00,787 --> 00:24:02,137 Perhaps losing your way. 389 00:24:02,231 --> 00:24:05,711 So many rabbit holes you can go down in astrology and get lost in. 390 00:24:06,311 --> 00:24:08,711 Perhaps discovering a secret mystical treasure. 391 00:24:09,131 --> 00:24:10,901 That is the ultimate goal of this journey. 392 00:24:11,441 --> 00:24:16,745 And what's extra special with astrology instead of the forest, is 393 00:24:16,745 --> 00:24:21,829 that every time you turn a corner you get the opportunity to find a new 394 00:24:21,889 --> 00:24:24,289 astrological secret, mystical treasure. 395 00:24:24,619 --> 00:24:30,259 There's infinite secret mystical astrological treasures, and that's why 396 00:24:30,709 --> 00:24:34,764 I'm so honored to be the guide to help you on this enchanting treasure hunt 397 00:24:35,134 --> 00:24:41,770 of your astrology chart, of connecting the dots between the planets and why 398 00:24:41,770 --> 00:24:46,600 things are the way they are, why you are the way you are and, using all of 399 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:51,700 that to validate yourself, to understand yourself, and to care for yourself. 400 00:24:52,042 --> 00:24:53,152 How exciting is that? 401 00:24:53,782 --> 00:24:56,572 So this has been quite the roller coaster ride. 402 00:24:56,812 --> 00:24:57,532 We've been up. 403 00:24:57,848 --> 00:24:58,598 We've been down. 404 00:24:58,628 --> 00:24:59,378 I've cried. 405 00:24:59,918 --> 00:25:03,668 And I think it's time to say goodbye because there's so much more to 406 00:25:03,668 --> 00:25:05,948 talk about in future episodes. 407 00:25:06,843 --> 00:25:10,361 I cannot believe I'm saying this, but if you like the sound of all 408 00:25:10,361 --> 00:25:14,711 of this, if you like what you've heard, please rate and subscribe. 409 00:25:15,221 --> 00:25:18,551 Apparently I'm a podcaster now who says things like that, who would have thought? 410 00:25:19,135 --> 00:25:25,685 But, more importantly to me, if you feel called to do so, if you could share this 411 00:25:25,925 --> 00:25:31,895 with anyone who you think will enjoy all things, astrological, and self care, 412 00:25:31,925 --> 00:25:38,783 and, cheese, hopefully, I would really appreciate it because I think that's the 413 00:25:38,783 --> 00:25:44,243 best way that people discover podcasts and help me to build this community. 414 00:25:45,353 --> 00:25:46,943 Thank you so much for listening. 415 00:25:46,973 --> 00:25:48,143 Thank you for your time. 416 00:25:48,173
