SPEAKER_00:

Welcome to the Rochelle Christian Podcast. I'm Rochelle, your host. I'm here to help you come back to your body, take charge of your emotions, and live life on your terms. This podcast is a space for raw, real conversations about what it means to trust yourself, lean into your power, and create a life that feels aligned and alive. We'll explore human design, astrology, and other tools to help you understand your unique energy. More importantly, though, we're gonna talk about what it means to actually live and embody these aspects. So each week I'm gonna share stories, lessons, guidance to help you navigate life's challenges and really own your magic. So if you're ready to step up, take control, and show up as the most authentic version of you, let's begin. Welcome back to another episode on the podcast. You have me again, if you are watching on YouTube, fresh first thing in the morning, having my coffee. This has become a thing. Um, recording on Wednesday mornings. But today we're gonna talk all about November transits. And we've got a lot of transits in November. So we're gonna try and get through most of them. Uh, if you want a more like week-to-week, more in-depth update, the Roof and Rubble podcast is where I put out weekly transit updates as well. And just more about my 6-3 journey experimentation, everything I'm learning, everything I'm going through, just more, yeah, more personalized. Um, I don't know, my Leo energy, I guess. All my Leo stuff is kind of going in there as well. You can get that, obviously, you can subscribe to the Roof and Rubble through the link below, or you can join the Inner Mother Collective where you also get the Roof and Rubble, you also get the business masterminds, you also get the community, like all of the beautiful things that are within that space. It's such a beautiful container, uh, this really new age sort of Aquarius container. I've been reading Esoteric Astrology, kind of researching a little bit on esoteric. Actually, I mean, I'm always researching stuff. Esoteric astrology right now. I'm also been researching the seven-year cycle. So that podcast episode will be out next week. Um, it's fascinating, and there's so much that I have to say on seven-year cycles. Um, I have dipped into it before. You know, seven-year cycles basically are human design speaks to it, you know, with the idea that every seven years all of our cells regenerate. And so we have this potential to decondition and create a whole new being within seven years. But, you know, considering whenever you come to this information, it can take a while. And I've been in my human design journey for seven years. And although I feel like a drastically different person than when I began, I still have a lot of work to do. So, of course, keeping that in mind. But it's also these Saturnian cycles. Every seven years, Saturn is in a harsh aspect to where it was when you were born. So if you are born with Saturn in Leo, then after seven years, Saturn will be in Scorpio. And then after seven years, Saturn will be in Aquarius, and then after seven years, Saturn will be in Taurus, and then after seven, so it's this whole seven-year cycle. Anyway, they're challenging time points in life. So I will get into all of that on the next episode. I also wanted to do a little update on this whole like three eye Alice thing. And then I found myself just going down the rabbit hole on social media and I had to stop myself. I was like, I can't give any more of my energy to this because it was, you know, the thing with social media right now that I find so fascinating is like the need for discernment so much because there's so much AI out there that I don't even know what's real, what's fake, and really coming into myself. And when I feel that discomfort, I guess, in my body, or I feel that uh, I guess the fear or whatever those emotions are coming up, I'm like, okay, hold up. I have to come back to myself, take a deep breath. Actually, let's do that real quick. So wherever you are, even if you're driving, you don't have to close your eyes or anything. But like, if you're not driving, if you can, just place one hand on your chest, one hand on your belly, and just breathe into your heart, like activate this heart space. The more you do this during meditation, the more you like take a pause to do this, the easier you can activate it during like your waking hours. So sometimes I'll be, you know, wherever if I'm driving or if I'm walking or if I'm at work or something, and I just feel this constriction in my chest. It's like just open it up, breathe into it because it's so needed right now. There's so much going on. Uh, I don't watch the news, but of course I hear things and social media, you can't escape like the massive things that are happening in the world right now. And so taking that breath, taking that pause and coming into yourself, because we have to work on an individual level in order to impact the collective, right? As within, so without, um, as above, so below the law of correspondence, like we are a mirror for the collective. And so doing your own work, coming into yourself, knowing your truth, trusting your truth, all those will greatly impact the collective. And regardless of whatever the truth is on anything that's happening, um there's a big shift coming. We all feel it, we all know it, we all I think it's just this intuitive knowing gnosis, I guess is what you want to say it. We we feel it. And so yeah, we'll dive into the podcast episode a few things before we dive into that. Astro Design School is available. You can join through the link down below. This is really a space to become the student of yourself to really understand your personal story through the lens of astrology, human design, coming in, doing the embodiment work. But it's not just that, it's understanding the transits, it's knowing how to layer that on and understanding your chart. We're gonna go through the gene keys, we're gonna layer all these pieces, and it is a six-month program because every month it's on a drip basis, so every month there's a new module that gets released. So you have a month to focus in on these themes, to practice them, to embody them, to really come into this space of knowing. I am a Leo moon, so when I do things, and it's square Pluto, so that's important to this. When I do things, I it can be intense and I put a lot into it and I'm I give you so much. And also the slowness of the unfolding and the embodiment and coming into yourself to let this information settle and be a part of you is so important as well. And it's something I've really had to learn on my journey is slowness to integrate, to embody, to feel it in my system. And that's a huge part of this program. So you can join again down below. It is six months. Um, such a really powerful, beautiful uh container if you're really at the point in your journey where you want to deeply not just understand yourself, but deeply become unravel, unhook, decondition. Like if you're at this point where I feel like so many of us are, where it's like, okay, we know the information, we've intellectualized it on a mental level, we understand it, but how can this be a practical application in my everyday life? How can I use this to come back to to own my own, like my core being, my core essence? How can I create awareness about my patterns, my habits? Like, and I think understanding your story through the lens of these systems is so powerful in just like owning that part of yourself, right? Like I am a six-three, I will always be have that hold that like teacher archetype, but I have to go through my process to embody that energy. It is a slower process because I'm not only a Taurus, Sun, Mercury, and Midheaven and a sixth line, right? Like there's just my journey requires slowness and emotional authority, right? And this is something I've had to learn because as an MG, I just want to like plow and like go into it and like do thing after do thing after thing after thing and like just initiate. Um, but I've learned the slowness, the pause has been beautiful. It really changed and shifted a lot. So that's down below. If you want a chart, a transit chart analysis, I'm offering those as well. And this is a recorded transit analysis, like what's going on with the transits, how it layers into your chart, what you can expect, what's coming, all that um is available, as well as just a basic one-on-one chart understanding. You can get that. Inner Mother Collective. This is my this is our space, really. Um, membership space. We're putting a lot of energy now, and you get the monthly moon cycles and moon cycles, monthly moon circles in there, workshops, all the things. And keep an ear out, I'll announce it here. I'm gonna be doing a free workshop. Um, I have not decided on um a date yet, but that is coming soon. So just keep an ear out for that. And yeah, I think that's all like the housekeeping stuff. I gotta get out of the way. But every link that you need to know um is down below. Oh, I also have the chart again on my website. So you can go grab your chart and then you'll get a seven-day like email on really under just breaking it down, type strategy and authority, what it means, next steps, all the things. So you're not just like given this chart of information, but it really breaks it down. So even if you pull for your child or whatever, right? Like you'll have this understanding. Um, and definitely I have so much more to come. I'm feeling really lit up and excited. It's kind of been a, I don't know, this year has been last year, it felt like it was like a cocoon year. And this year is sort of like back ending that this year is a shedding. I mean, we know this, it's the year of the snake, but there's been so much shedding personally, and I feel like it's coming out of that. Um, I keep thinking, so uh my friend sent me this podcast episode because he heard them say the dragonfly. And it's so interesting because dragonfly has always been my like thing. When I was younger, I've told this story on here before, but when I was younger, I'm talking like, I don't know, maybe it was like five or something. I just remember we were at this pool and it had like an outdoor indoor pool, and you had to like swim underneath the thing to go from the outside to the inside. And so I was inside in this little like pool, and this big, I mean, what seemed huge to me at five, like landed on my shoulder, this dragonfly, and I was I started freaking out. So I was going under the water, I was going over the water. I like swam under the thing. This dragonfly would not leave my shoulder, and so but I was freaking out, and I finally like went up to my dad and he just like plucked it off and it flew away. But ever since then, I've just been like fascinated with dragonflies because I was like, it just would not like it felt like it was like five minutes of me trying to get this thing off. Who knows? Maybe it was 30 seconds, but I could not get this dragonfly off my shoulder. So dragonflies have always been my thing, and that's actually what attracted me to the gene keys in the beginning, because somebody, you know, I was in the human design kind of world, and I saw this book, and I'm looking at it right now. I saw this book with a dragonfly on it, and I was like, I don't know what that is, but I have to read it. And so that opened my world, my um mind to the gene keys. And so that's been a huge part of my process and my journey as well, like being a student of that. It is so beautiful, it is so poetic. I know we talk about on here. Um, but the actual, I don't even know where this started from, but the image of the dragonfly like came, oh, the podcast episode. The image of the dragonfly came in my head. I was like, I feel, I mean, if you're on YouTube, you can see like I have, oh, is it on this arm? Is it on the other arm? It's on the other arm. I have dragonfly, my big uh dragonfly tattoo right here. Breathe. Um, so anyway, so yes, dragonflies are a thing. But what I find fascinating about dragonflies that Richard Redd talks about, that I had no idea until I heard Richard Rudd talk about it, dragonflies are actually born as like water nymphs, I guess, water creatures, right? So they're they're born in the water. And so they don't breathe air, they're like water, uh, I don't know, water-based insects, right? Or whatever you want to call it. And they get to a point in their life where then they climb up a piece of grass or whatever, and then they shed their skin and they get these beautiful, um, uh, oh my gosh, what what is the word I'm looking for? They're like sh the shimmery wings, and then they fly and they take off. And so my friend had heard this dragonfly piece of this podcast, and so he sent it to me and I was listening to it. I haven't fully finished the podcast, but she was describing this transformation. And it's so true because when the dragonfly is in the water, it never even has the idea that it could just like soar about and fly about, right? And and but it it can, it has this absolute complete transformation in its life, and it goes from this water creature, like essentially like a fish, right? And then it goes and it can fly, and then it becomes a air creature, land creature, air creature, insect. And so it's actually really beautiful. And so it's always been like my sign, my symbol, my um spirit insect, I guess. I don't know, between that and bears, I've come to understand bears have been my spirit animal as well. But um yeah, I don't know where that even came from, but there you go. If you did not know that a dragonfly actually was birthed in the water and then went above, crawled up a piece of grass, and sprouted wings and became a dragonfly, now you know. So we talk, you know, about the butterfly and the phoenix rising from the ashes, and uh dragonflies also have a really beautiful story. So next time you see a dragonfly, know that it once was under the water and never knew that it was gonna fly in the air. So, okay, all that aside, um, we'll dive into the transits of November because again, there are so many transits this coming month. Um, again, I'm gonna try and do it in chronological order, but I'm not always the best about doing that. So okay, let's start with um on November 4th, Mars is moving into Sagittarius. So Mars is currently in Scorpio, where it is home, home in Scorpio, and um right before that it's gonna be trying to Neptune because again, uh all these this late degree um so Neptune actually just retrograded back into Pisces. So late degree Scorpio is gonna be trying to late degree Pisces, and so this is bringing, you know, Neptune is a little bit delusional, it's a little bit, it I mean, it is like your dream world. Um, it makes you not see things quite clearly. So it's like with this aspect, it's supportive, uh, it's a trine. Um, and it might be giving you the energy to move on things that um I always think too, like sometimes we need a little bit of delusion, right? In order to achieve the things that we want to achieve. And so with Mars, which is action, assertion, it's movement, it's it's uh attraction, it's magnetism, it's sort of like the this energy of like moving towards something. And so like Neptune here just giving it a little bit of a push of just like be a little bit delusional about it and just like keep going, right? And that's kind of what that energy is. Um, on the second, so right before that, so on Sunday, Venus is square to Jupiter. So square is a little bit challenging, it's internal challenges, but this is um, you know, expansion on, you know, Venus has been doing a lot. I mean, yeah, Venus Venus in Libra is really having us focus on our values. We've talked about this over the last few moon cycles, really getting clear on your values. Because if you don't know what you value, and I'm I'm really deep into the TBM work again, just kind of like doing the unblocking and subconscious reprogramming, but and I've been doing an unblocked boundaries workshop. But if you don't know what your boundaries are, if you don't know what you value, like you'll fall for anything, right? That I've keep saying that saying on here. If you don't stand for anything, you'll fall for everything. But it's like if you don't know what your boundaries are, and this is where I find I struggle a lot, is that like I don't always know my boundaries until they've been crossed. And so it's really tuning into your body. What is your body telling you? And of course, with Jupiter and cancer, like cancer is our ancestors, right? Cancer is like, it's our home, it's our family, it's all the inner world, but it is like our generational, right? It is our ancestors, it's like it's our roots, it's like deep beyond that. And so Venus, right, like when we're looking at like a challenging aspect in this sense, right, with with a square, it's like, what are those values that have been passed down from generation to generation to generation that you never questioned that actually aren't yours? This is a huge theme for this month, for the new moon. It just like keeps coming up, especially because it's been opposite to Chiron, the new moon, the last new moon in Libra was opposite opposite to Chiron, Venus was just opposite to Chiron. And so it's like this theme is really coming up, and Jupiter is offering us an opportunity to really work through this now, right? So it's like, what are those values that that values, right, that aren't yours, that actually aren't your values, but you think that you value them. And I'll be talking all about this in the seven-year cycles because this is just keeps what comes up in my mind is that you know, from that zero to 21, specifically zero to 14, right? There's something that really interesting that happens at 14, but we'll that's again will be for the next episode. But it's like those values that we don't question because we just saw, right? But now we're at a point where we need to be questioning those. Like, are these mine? Are these not? Um, and so that's happening. We then have Mars and Sagittarius on the fourth. Once it moves into Sagittarius on the fourth, it's gonna be opposite to Gemini, uh, Gemini. It's gonna be opposite to Uranus and Gemini. Um, and so this is really like uh asking, you know, Uranus and Gemini is having us see things from a new perspective. It's having us question everything that we thought that we knew. Our our the way we see things, the way we perceive things, the way we think about things is radically shifting. And so, of course, Mars being action, assertion, um, sexuality, things like that, right? In opposition to this, it's like it's really, we're really feeling the friction um and the power behind this movement, right? Um, so this is really, really um potent, I guess, potent uh opposition that we have here. And especially Uranus is retrograde. And I've, you know, kind of kind of gone over that uh retrograde cycle where it's like Uranus when it moves over uh degrees, when it moves over in the retrograde cycle, it's like things that we didn't necessarily question. The first time it passes over, maybe we get like a little inkling back there. We're like, huh, like this actually doesn't feel good or doesn't feel right, or maybe you start to see it a little bit differently. And then when it goes retrograde, it's gonna pass over it again, and then it becomes a little bit more um clear internally. We're really doing that internal work because retrogrades turn the energy inwards, and it's like, okay, wow, like this thing actually isn't what I thought it was, right? So it's like, you know, with the example of marriage, like these institutions, these systems that we never really questioned before, but you're like, wow, this actually doesn't work. That doesn't work for me, it doesn't feel good for me. And then when it goes back over the over that third time, it's really an opportunity, it's like, okay, what are you gonna do now? And we're not all always going to be doing something about it, right? Like sometimes we just, you know, it lets back to the example of a marriage. If the marriage isn't working and you begin to see that when retrograde, when Uranus goes, you know, direct over it, you know, considering if you have any massive um planets um within that retrograde cycle, within those degrees, that'll be impacting you more deeply than if you just if it's just passing over a random part of your chart. But although I will say no part of your chart is random, it all has really deep meaning. Like our chart is embedded in ourselves, like it's so part of us. But anyway, so like, but not all of us are gonna leave the marriage, not all of us are gonna leave the relationship, not all of us are gonna do something, and that's fine, but our awareness will shift. The way that we perceive it will shift. And I don't know that that will ever go back. You're gonna, you're going to see it differently. So this is like a huge part part of that. Um, Mars and Sagittarius, uh, you know, Sagittarius is a uh immutable fire sign, asking the big questions, right? It's travel, long distance travel, but this can also be travel of the mind. It doesn't have to be actual physical uh travel in the world, but we're asking those really big questions. What is my purpose? What am I here to do? What is the meaning of life, right? Like these philosophical questions. And so Mars here is just giving us that drive, that power, that momentum to really move into that, right? The thing with Sagittarius, the shadow side of Sagittarius, because it is so optimistic, right? Because it's ruled by Jupiter, it's just like onto the next and onto the next and onto the. I don't have time to sit and like feel the things. And so with Mars here, it's really pushing us on the onto the next, onto the next, right? So that can be like part of um the way that this shows up. We have on the sixth, so again, like with Mars moving into Sagittarius, it's going to be touching these um outer planets that are doing these big things. So it's going to be sextile to Pluto. Um, you know, Mars and Pluto are kind of explosive when they come into contact with each other. A sextile is more supportive, but it'll still be this intense drive, push um for transformation, for movement, for, you know, kind of like it's sort of like accident prone when they come into like a square or an opposition. Um, but it can still be a little intense, right? When these two planets talk to each other. It's just friction, right? It's it's anger and resentment, and they're kind of coming together. Um, so as a sextile, maybe it's just helping us see these, witness these, and not necessarily, yeah, I don't know. We'll see. See, but that's kind of what comes up with that, right? It's it's these two planets together. There's just friction. That's just what I feel. Um, so on the fifth, I went past a little bit. So on the fifth, we have our full moon. So the fifth of November, we have our full moon in Taurus at 13 degrees in gate two. Gate two is the most feminine of the gates in human design. It is the gate of direction. This is seeing your purpose, seeing your direction, seeing the movement you want to go. This is create, you know, we have gate one, which is the like the masculine um gate creativity, but gate two is also it's this feminine creative, it's the receptive, right? That receptive energy where it's like we're sitting and we're we're allowing things, we're receiving, right? When we receive our direction, we're not forcing, we're not initiating, we're not pushing into anything. We're just we're allowing it to come to us. And so um, this full moon in Taurus, you know, full moon is illumination. Full moons we can see things with a little bit more clarity, but it's like, what are we releasing to create space for the intention that we'll be setting or that we did set, right? Um, during the new moon. So there's really um nothing like I'd uh if you join the Inner Mother Collective or the Roof and Rubble podcast, because I've been putting the replays for the circle inside there, you'll get the full moon circle um included in that. And so you'll be able to get like more in-depth um information on that. So, okay, on the sixth, Venus moves into Scorpio. I know like Venus doesn't necessarily like to be in Scorpio because Venus rules Taurus. I with with like a Plutonic moon and chart, like I am just I love Venus and Scorpio, but we're not all comfortable in that energy. It's intense, right? This is like jealousy, possession. Of course, this is the shadow side of it, but it's like jealousy, it's possession. Um, it's it's like um anger keeps coming to me. It's like anger, um, it's sort of like it's but it's intensity, it's sexuality, right? It's like Venus in Taurus is very sensual and she's like in her um, she's in her flow, she's uh magnetic, she's just like has this beautiful energy to her. Whereas Venus and Scorpio brings us a little bit into the darkness, right? It's it's taking that energy and making it a little bit darker, right? We're um maybe obsessed with sex, we're obsessed with somebody. Uh, and so that's sort of like that energy, which again, I'm I I kind of love just because like I love the depth and intensity of it. But um, that's sort of the energy that's coming with that. And of course, like as Venus moves into Scorpio, um, she's going to be aspecting, let's see, where are we at? So she'll be trying to no, actually, it's at the end of Scorpio that she's gonna have a lot more activity, but um, she'll be square to Pluto again. So this is just uh this is obsessive love, right? Like uh and mirrored into the collective because the transits and and specifically Aquarius is the collective. Um, so that's happening on the sixth. On the seventh, Uranus moves back into Taurus, and so I'm sorry, fixed signs. Trust me, I have been really enjoying Uranus outside of Taurus, but now Uranus is coming back into Taurus. Truth, shock, awakening. Taurus doesn't Uranus and Taurus don't work, right? Because Taurus wants stability, security, uh, slowness, and Uranus is just like shock. It's electrical shock, and it's coming into this planet of just like Earth. It's coming to this planet or this sign of just yeah, slowness, nature, being one with nature, coming into your pleasure and your sensuality. And Uranus is like, no, let's we're gonna shock the shit out of you, and we'll see what happens. So it f it felt good with Uranus not being in Taurus anymore, but here we are. We're gonna be back here in Taurus, and it goes back, it retrogrades back to 27 degrees of Taurus. Um, and so yeah, so that's happening on the 7th, which we can just, it'll it'll be fine. It'll be fine, right? We'll be fine. We'll all be fine. Uh of course you can get like more weekly uh updates on the Roof and Rebel Podcast. Um on, let's see, what else do we have here? On the so Mercury's also stationing retrograde on the 9th of November. Uh Mercury went into its shadow phase on, I'm gonna flip the page so I can see exactly when it was. It was this month. Um, I think it was uh on the 21st. So when it was at 20 20 degrees of Scorpio. So just noticing what themes are coming up really between then and November 9th, they're going to be revisited as Mercury stations retrograde and goes back from Sagittarius to 20 degrees of Scorpio. And then it'll station direct on the 29th at 20 degrees of Scorpio, where it'll go again like forward over these things. So we're in this kind of like foggy place. Uh, we're currently in the shadow phase, and so again, like really, really noticing what's coming up um is yeah, really helpful. So on the 18th, Mercury is gonna go back into Scorpio. Um, so again, we're just going back into this Scorpionic energy when it comes to Mercury and revisiting all these things that we've been in since October 21st. So again, notice what themes of the mind, of communication, um, where your headspace was at, what you're focusing on, what you were thinking about, all of those things. Uh, and then of course, communication. We're always, you know, Mercury retrograde always brings a little bit disconnect in communication. Uh, so just being aware of that, of what's what's going on there. Um, the 20th, we have our new moon. What's really interesting is that so the last new moon in Libra was at 28 degrees. This new moon in Scorpio is going to be at 28 degrees, and every new moon until April is going to be at 28 degrees. So I don't fully understand what that means, but this is we're moving towards that critical degree point. This is some sort of closing of cycles specifically around this new moon energy. New moons are times to um manifest, to set intentions. Uh, we don't, you know, new moons are we, it's when it's the darkest, right? We don't really see. So we're planting, it's like the seed. We're planting the seed. It's new beginnings, but we have to plant the seed. You can't see what fully the full moons illuminate, so we can actually see what's growing. New moons are planting that seed. It is a new journey, it is a new beginning. Um, but it's also it, but with all these being at 28 degrees, it's like it's coming to an end of a certain cycle. So it's like we've planted a seed during this time, right? I think this is like six months from last month. Yeah. So from like from Libra and to Aries, we're in this 28 degree. Every new moon is at 28 degrees. So it's like we planted a seed. Um, but uh it almost feels like we have to end something in order to really see fully this growth. It just needs a little bit extra tending, we'll say that. Um, and so that's happening on the 20th at 28 degrees of Scorpio. And um, it's going to be conjunct Mercury. The new moon is gonna be conjunct Mercury. Um, and so that will bring us actually a little bit of clarity because whenever we have that kazimi, let me see when exactly the kazimi is gonna be. Um, okay, so the 20, yeah, actually at the 20th, on like a few minutes, let's say after the new moon, um, it's gonna be exactly conjunct the sun. So this will actually give us clarity on whatever thing that we're feeling confused about, or whatever thing is coming up around Mercury retrograde, we'll be getting a little bit more clarity. That's what happens in a Kazimi. We can kind of like it kind of clears the fog for a few minutes. Um, it's also going to be this new moon is also gonna be trying to Saturn, um, opposite Uranus and trying to Neptune. So it's a lot of energy, right? Um, the opposition to Uranus again, shock, truth, again. And this is in Taurus right now. So it's awakening something in us. Um, gosh, I mean, the financial systems, food, it's actually um it's really interesting, yeah, because they are I I like I said, I don't watch the news, but I have definitely heard that they're stopping SNAP benefits with the government shut down. And so that's the first thing that comes to me with this opposition, the new moon being opposite to Uranus. Uranus is in Taurus, Uranus moves into Taurus on the seventh, and the SNAP benefits are stopping on the first. And it's in retrograde. So it's like this, we're reving up to this like shake up, this uh awakening, this shock to our system, you know, when it comes to food, when it comes to material resources. Like this is very much Uranus retrograde, specifically in Taurus. And so it's actually like this is I I this is actually like the first time I'm like putting that together because I'm just was looking at the transits today for November for the first time. But I'm like, that so much is what it feels like. Um yeah, delusion with with that trying to to Neptune. It's supportive, right? It's like bringing us into dream world, but it's like, what are we gonna do about it? Um, Saturn bringing in a little bit of structure, a little bit of restriction. Like all of this feels very much. I would be curious to see what is going on around this time when it comes to that, if it's over. Um, yeah, just like what's going on. Cause I know a lot of people are trying to donate and support and help because it's this is impacting like children, right? That these benefits are for families that can't afford to like buy food. And so it's like all of the, I think the statistic was like three million children or something like that are gonna be impacted by the inability to to have access to food. Like it's actually wild. So uh yeah, so that's gonna be happening. That actually feels really intense. Um, but yeah, with Uranus moving back into Taurus, that's definitely I can definitely see that as being part of this um energy. But so with Mercury in retrograde, when it hits back into Pisces, it's gonna be in the same thing, it's gonna be opposite um Uranus trying Neptune, uh, yeah, all the things. And so that our mind, our communication in retrograde, we're not seeing quite clearly maybe miscommunication, um, especially with that trying to Neptune, where we're feeling a little bit delusional, a little bit confused, like amplifying the confusion of what we're already feeling on the 20th as well. So Uranus is gonna be exactly trying to Neptune at 29 degrees and 29 minutes of Pisces. Um, and so that is man, Uranus and Neptune. Again, Neptune, the dissolver, dissolution of boundaries, Uranus the Great Awakener. I mean, this is, you know, what what are your dreams telling you, right? What are your dreams awakening? What message are they tell are are you receiving? Um, yeah, just like again, that shock, truth, all that kind of stuff is really coming through really strongly. Uh, the sun on the 21st, first is going to be opposite Uranus again. But and this is uh Scorpio Taurus. So this axis of like what is definitely, I mean, this was the new moon, right? But this is also like what's coming up during this time. And then we have on the 21st, the sun moves into Sagittarius. So kind of moving away from this like really intense energy of Scorpio and moving into this more optimistic, maybe, you know, especially because, you know, with the transition, so you know, Scorpio is merging souls, it is sex, it is depth, it is intensity, it is, you know, all that kind of stuff, the subconscious work. I actually, so I'm listening to a book on um Pluto, healing through Pluto. But one thing that the author talks about over and over and over again, which I've actually been doing, so I have a Hades moon, so my moon is square Pluto. Um, Pluto for me is in my um fourth house, and then Jupiter is in my eighth house. So just like a lot of kind of intense energy there. But uh, oh yeah, well, whatever. I'm not gonna go into my chart in too much detail. But I say that to say, I have been doing for a couple years, I've been working with flower essences, but really lately it's been coming in strong to like restart them. But what this book talks about, and so I I offer this as we're kind of in, you know, in Scorpio season, if you feel the call to it as well, because Scorpio, Pluto specifically, is the subconscious, right? The underworld. It's these deep things. And what flower essences do is they work on the subtle body, they work in the subconscious, they work on the subtle like layers. Um, and so I have been feeling called over the last month to really get back into flower essences. So I've been taking them in the morning and at night. And at first, it's like always like they actually did a study, and I don't know exactly what study it was. Um, I would have to find it and share it, but it's in they were talking about it in this book. Uh, and they did a study on flower essences. And so they took people and they gave them, yeah, I guess like, I don't know, water. Um, and then they gave people flower essences. And the people who took the placebo, right? The the just the water had no changes. But the people who took the flower essences, they actually really saw like over a time period of time, like transformation and shifts in them. And I can't remember what exactly they were studying, whether it was, um, yeah, I I totally butchered that study. But the point being, flower essences are really, really powerful because they take the essence of the flower, they mix it with alcohol depending. Um, uh, you can mix it with some if you want. Uh, but there are some really, really great flower essences out there. There's the Bach flower essences. Um, I actually use uh um, oh my gosh, what's her name? Uh Alexa Smart. That's what I use. Alexa Smart, I do the unblocked one. So it's the one that she created with uh Lacey Phillips. And then I also have Skeptical Shaman. She was on the podcast uh a couple years ago, maybe. I use her flower essences as well. But you can get Bach flower essences at Whole Foods. Um, there's a lot of places you can get them. But I say all of that to offer that while we're in this Scorpio work, using that on your subtle body, right? Like using that in the background as a support and as a tool can be really helpful as we're kind of like navigating, doing this work. Um, and because as we move into Sagittarius season, it's sort of just like that happy, optimistic, like onto the next type energy, which, you know, of course, we're still expanding our mind. We're still really diving deeply into like education, learning things, finding where Sagittarius is in your chart, how what it's what area of life it's highlighting for you. For me, this is my fifth house. So, um, but I have some, I have Saturn and Uranus there. And so it's always like a weird, sticky place for me where it's like, I want structured fun, but like not at all. I want to throw it away. And I find it's just like a weird thing. I have creativity and fun for me uh are serious, which makes sense. And also sometimes I just get in that mood where I'm just like, ah, fuck it all, and let's just like do whatever that Uranus like comes in and just like shocks the system and it's just like we're doing. Um, and so anyway, so uh noticing where this is in your chart, um, what is going to be highlighted over the next uh month um season with the sun and Sagittarius, and then Venus moves into Sagittarius on the 30th. Um, and I'm missing a couple retrogrades. I'll come back to that in a minute. Venus is moving into Sagittarius on the 30th, and when she moves into Sagittarius, oh no, so before that, so between the 24th and the 30th, Venus is conjunct Mercury, trine Jupiter, trine Saturn, opposite Uranus, and trine Neptune. So she's doing the most at the end of the month. And so it's just like a lot of focus on our relationships, on our values, um, on all of these things and really shaking it up. And so what I've been saying for the last couple months of like really getting clear in your values, like, do this work because when she's aspecting all these planets, like most of it is supportive, right? Saturn's gonna come in there and just be like, okay, let's let's make it make sense. Like, let's get organized with this, let's structure this a little bit, like let's really get clear on the things that we value. Like, let's really um make it make sense. Because when she's gonna be conjunct Mercury, things might not be so clear because Mercury's in retrograde. Um, Jupiter is gonna be supporting this opposite to Uranus, you know, that's gonna be a little uncomfortable because Uranus is in her home of Taurus, and then trying to Neptune. Neptune makes us a little bit delusional. So it's like we might not quite see our boundaries, we might forget our values sometimes, we might question it. Like, why did I set those boundaries? But this is a supportive aspect. So um it could support us in dissolving the boundaries, right? Or dissolving the illusion. Because the thing with Neptune is depending on where you are in your journey and consciousness, um, Neptune will either really play on your confusion, your delusion, your inability to see clearly, your disconnection with yourself, the escapism, the addictions, or if you're more on the consciousness side, right, it's really gonna support the your psychic abilities, your dream world, seeing things more clearly, seeing things from that perspective of being all connected and all one and sort of like that kind of energy. So it really just depends on how this can show up for you. And then I missed a couple things. So Jupiter is gonna station retrograde on November 11th at 25 degrees of cancer. So it's gonna be moving back through there. And again, retrogrades bring this energy inside of us. So where is cancer in your chart? What has been coming up? Um, but Jupiter stationing retrograde, uh, so just noticing what themes have been coming up around this, where cancer is in your chart, um, because that'll give you an idea of like this work. But you know, Jupiter's expansion, and this is all in the area of like home, family, or inner world, and ancestry, um, generational things, all that stuff coming up. And then Saturn stations direct on the 27th at 25 degrees of Pisces. So now it's going to start making its move back into Aries, and then February 20th, I believe it is, Neptune and Saturn move into Aries together. And so 2026 is really this energy of initiation because or initiatory energy, new beginnings, starting something, offering us an opportunity because Saturn and Neptune are moving into Aries together, and then Gemini is gonna move back, or Gemini, Uranus is gonna move back into Gemini, I think in April. Um, and then it will officially be they will be in those signs uh for the duration of their journey through those signs. So those are the major transits of the month. Again, if you join the Roof and Rubble, I do weekly podcast um transit updates or weekly transit updates there, um, just more in depth as like play by play as like what's happening and a reflection of anything that happened over the week. Um, you get more uh than that as well in there. You get the moon cycle moon circles in there and so much more. So anyway, you can find all that over there. Um next week I'll be back to talk about the seven-year cycles. I'm really fascinated by it. It's been such a fun, um, deep, reflective, introspective journey of just like studying it and researching it. So that'll be on next week. And yeah, follow me on Instagram at rochelle.christian.
