Eclipse Season Insights: The September Forecast

Helena Laura Lee Episode 97

Give us your feedback! We'd love to hear from you!

After nearly 100 weeks of sharing uninterrupted episodes, life threw us a curveball in August when life was lifing and made us miss an episode. But here we are, Laura Lee and Helena, turning this little hiccup into a moment of reflection and growth. In this episode, we look back on the wisdom we've gathered and how Saturn’s lessons on maturity have quietly guided our journey. As we gear up for our 100th episode, we revisit our 2024 insights and the transformative energy of Pluto in Capricorn, exploring its impact on both our personal lives and the world around us.

This week, we dive into practical tips for navigating Virgo season’s financial and emotional landscape. We share personal stories about managing stress, setting up automatic bill payments, and the importance of mindfulness for staying healthy. We also explore the upcoming Pisces full moon and lunar eclipse, offering advice on how to handle heightened emotions and harness these celestial shifts for personal growth.

Thank you for being part of our journey—we can’t wait to share what’s next!

Speaker 1:

hello, hello, I'm laura lee.

Speaker 2:

Welcome to ram and goat astrology yes, hi, I'm helena and we are here today to sort of talk about what's happening in September, sort of yeah, we're going to talk about it, we're going to talk about September.

Speaker 1:

We're making some shifts to the podcast. Recently, mercury just went back forward, back forward. That doesn't even make sense, just went direct again. Yeah, you go left right, wait right, wait what wait a minute no mercury? No one knows where mercury is going. Mercury is now going direct and during the retrograde. Helena and I took some time to, I guess, evaluate where we're at with the podcast and what we want to do with it and how we would like to do this going forward, cause we're coming up on our hundredth episode, which is crazy.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's a little bit. It's almost like I feel great about it, but also like I don't know, I just it gives me like a, like a. Yeah, that's great.

Speaker 1:

It's a lot and we've done a hundred. Well, now this will be like 97 or 98 or whatever we're at. We've done these every single week and I think last week was the first one, first time we didn't put one out, yeah, so that was a big deal for us. But at the same time we also recognized we needed to. Just, you were not feeling well, I was not feeling well, there was like some timing difficulties, and with Saturn, yeah, and Mercury were both retrograde. We were like, hey, how about we? Just it's okay, we'll just take a week yeah, yeah, who else had a difficult August?

Speaker 2:

I'm sure this bit, like many, many of you there was. I feel like august went by really sort of fast and sort of loud. Um, I barely remember there was a full moon in aquarius, yep there was that I remember, and uh coming after two full moons in a row in Capricorn.

Speaker 1:

Mars square Saturn was happening there too.

Speaker 2:

That was a big deal too, and it's funny because, yeah, I was telling Laura Lee about this the other day, like I was having a sort of difficult August. Like you know, life goes up and down and then you realize things and you slow down and things happen. And I was listening back to our 2024 the year ahead episodes. We have three of them that we released in December last year and I listened to the one about August and I was like, oh my goodness, here I am giving myself advice in the past but I didn't take my advice. So here I am, like suffering the consequences from not listening to my own advice.

Speaker 1:

It's interesting, because you were the one who told me hey, go listen to this episode, listen to us. And I did, and I heard it, exactly what you were talking about, and I don't know if we could have done anything different, though I think part of the lesson is to accept that. Oh, that was that difficult energy. That was where these challenges were going to show up, if they were going to show up, and oh, look, they did.

Speaker 2:

Yes, and we even yeah, and we say that in the episode. I remember listening to us saying, like you know, talking about the Saturn, mars thing, and saying like, oh, be careful. And with Jupiter there too, like be careful on these dates. And then like, well, maybe not be careful, do what you're gonna do, but you, you're gonna suffer the consequences and you're gonna learn, and that's. I think that's what happened. And, like you said, like that is life, that's how you learn, and saturn is all for us like learning, maturing, growing, and it's uncomfortable, but it makes you grow. Like that's when it's uncomfortable, that's when you sort of shift and move because you don't want to be uncomfortable. So you have to like shift to get out of it and do the mature thing to get out of it, yeah, and we had to do that, didn't we?

Speaker 2:

We did and, yeah, like we didn't release that episode, and that was a huge thing for us and it was almost like a. It was like a mini mini crisis, but not really dramatic, just like a oh okay, let's, that's a great description.

Speaker 1:

It was a little mini crisis. It wasn't dramatic and we handled it fine, but it was nothing terrible. It's just like you said you're going to do what you're going to do and you're going to have to learn the lesson that comes with that. And we did, and we did a good job. High five to us.

Speaker 1:

But we also were able to take this August energy and I think if there's anything you and I did really well is we took this and really evaluated what we are doing, what we've been doing, what our goal is with the show and where we want to go with it, and you know who our listeners are and all of the things. So I love that we use the energy to the best of our ability.

Speaker 1:

And then when stuff did get a little rough we were like, oh look, we told ourselves about this eight months ago. Yes, that was nice of us to do that. It was so interesting to listen to our episodes for the year ahead. And then I listened to all three of them and kind of went back in my year and you go oh yeah, oh, oh, that went, oh yeah, and I went through all of it and it was.

Speaker 1:

it was pretty cool and I have not actually listened to our show from an objective perspective of a listener. I usually speak the show and then I edit the show and that's how I get the show. So to go back and listen to older episodes, for me while I was like out in the woods and cutting trees, it felt really cool and I was. I was like, wow, these people are cool.

Speaker 2:

I should listen to them more, yeah but yeah, like a great tip is to go back and listen to those three episodes that we released. They're called, uh, year ahead one, two and ahead 2024. I think we released them the end of December or maybe early January of this year.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they were pretty good.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we're in September now. When did that happen Two days ago?

Speaker 1:

You're right. Yeah, we're going to do a casual transit today. We're going to go through September, but we're just going to kind of keep it casual, because one of the things we started out this podcast with was casual astrology conversations and we love doing that, so we're going to keep it cash.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so we might not mention every transit of this month. Yeah, so we might not mention every transit of this month.

Speaker 2:

We're going to talk about the ones that we feel are popping out a little extra, if you want and let us know, our name on Instagram is Ram and Goat Astrology and you can go there and let us know if you want this, because I can put all of the transits up on our Patreon for free for everyone to see, if you want to just look at when the transits are, and then we might not talk about all of them, but at least you could see them. But let us know, otherwise I won't do it. But if you want me to, I will do it, yes.

Speaker 1:

Yeah. So we started off September. I don't know my, my, my September 1st was really rough. I don't know how yours went, but mine was real intense. And it was Sunday, this past Sunday, and, um, I don't know if I was feeling the retrograde of Pluto going entering into Capricorn, or Uranus started to go retrograde on the first. I don't know if I was feeling those but, holy moly, I got into major authority figure, energy and discipline energy and I was just intense with my children and my husband and, first of all, I love my husband. He is as close to perfect of a spouse as you could get. He really is, and sometimes he's still a dumb man. And he decided on Sunday morning that it would be a good idea to talk to me about finances, particularly credit card payments, while I was going pee before I'd had any kind of water, tea or food or a hug, before I'd had any kind of water, tea or food or a hug. That is a great way to light the fuse of an Aries bomb, If you want to know. It's a really great way to do it on a Sunday morning.

Speaker 1:

I did not, I didn't, I didn't handle that well, and then I went outside to defuse bomb and I was walking around out in the grass barefoot just trying to ground myself. I was sitting in my yard, I was doing everything, working my fingers into the grass, picking weeds, calmed myself down, went back in the house and walked past my girl's room. We don't have many rules, but we have a few, and one of them is no electronics in the bedroom. Walked past, opened their door and the two 12 and 11 year olds are sitting on the bed eight to 30 in the morning with a phone in their hand, and I was like that's it Family meeting. Everybody got in there and is like everybody drink water right now because we're hot and I'm literally forcing water down everybody's necks and everybody drink water and they're like I'm good, I've had some. No, drink more. I'm hot, you need to, I'm on fire.

Speaker 1:

You should drink some water, because I'm going to throw some fireballs at you. You're going to want to catch it with something a little bit liquidy. It was uh, that was quite the intense start to my pluto and capricorn movement yeah, like pluto.

Speaker 2:

Pluto has been in capricorn for ever, if it's like like 20 years, something like that and now, 2008, I think, it went in the cameraorn Whoa, yeah. And now it finally well, it came into Aquarius for a little bit. It's been in Aquarius up to two degrees, I think, and then it started retrograding back and now it's actually back again in Capricorn for the last time, till November, I think. Yeah, and that is like it's not going to be in capricorn again for another 200 years, 200 plus years, 240 years, yep, so it's a big thing. And now it's back there. It's on the same degree again as the pluto. Return for the United States and you have your election.

Speaker 1:

So this is, yeah, this is a really huge deal for, for, like world politics, it is, it is, and I don't know if you saw, but we did the episode on Trump and Kennedy and now Kennedy has actually pulled out and joined and supported Trump, so it's a really interesting change. Yeah, I'm dead serious.

Speaker 1:

Yes, yeah, he took a position in the in the counselor. I didn't read the article, but he did pull back and pull out of the race and is now supporting Trump, which is interesting now that we've looked at both of their charts and how different they are. So I don't know what to think anymore.

Speaker 2:

I just know that our country's weird, yeah Well, and the thing about Capricorn is Capricorn really wants to hold on to like old structures. It's that father figure, it's that you know, father time it's. It's not really so much for change, like Aquarius is all about change, but Capricorn is all about keeping things traditional.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you know what we've always done yeah, uh, maybe also you know, like what's happening now. What seems to be happening is that, you know, going back, going a little bit backwards with some laws, you know, like anti-abortion and things like that, like trekking backwards. That feels very like pluto in capricorn and that is what a little bit makes me feel, a little bit not so like super excited about pl Pluto being back in Capricorn. But it's the last time until the next time, which is in 200 plus years, so I'm also expecting a lot of change. This is also the time when there can be a lot of changes in those really hard set rules and structures, yep, because Pluto can also, like, really transform.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and that's what I'm hoping. I'm hoping that as pluto goes back into capricorn for just a little bit, dips his toes there, we get to look at that foundation and go, oh, that needs to change, that's not working, that's got to shift, uh-uh. No, like almost re-evaluate all the joints of the bridge and check and see what needs to be fixed. This is what I'm hoping anyway, but the last time I was there was 2008.

Speaker 1:

So if you think about this, even for me, on Sunday, just on a personal level, I was very, very upset with my first three kids. Now, when they were younger, I, when I yelled, I was out of control, yelling like it was screaming, it was. It was almost like I left my own body. This time, when I was upset and I was yelling, it was very controlled, it was very intense, but it was more like I was an actor on stage and I was like channeling the energy through me and I was using a lot of gestures and I was very dramatic. And then I would pause and then I would look at them and go do you understand me? And it was like real, it was, I mean, like honestly, if I had recorded this and watched this after, when I wasn't upset. I bet this would have been freaking comedy gold. I bet this would be hilarious because do you understand me? And they're like, yes, yes, but they know I'm very serious about it, so it's really really interesting.

Speaker 1:

well, that's where my leo is is the third and fourth house, so this is they get the performer kind of mother yeah, I was. I was yelling, but it was controlled, it was intentional, it wasn't mean, it wasn't flying off the handle, it wasn't out of control, whereas when they were little it was way out of control and it was all the time. This was very intentional, very deliberate. Address the things, not don't cut the kid down, but address the issue Right, like there was very, very specific ways of dealing with it.

Speaker 1:

So if I think about that Pluto Capricorn energy since 2008 to now and just the way I use power in my home has completely transformed, completely. It used to be very, very out of control like a bomb and now it's more like a laser, like I've been able to learn how to channel that energy into laser point focus, which is really, really cool, and I was pretty damn proud of myself. And afterwards I went out for a walk and I came back and I hugged each one of the kids and I, you know, apologized for the intensity, not for what I said, but I apologized for the intensity because it was like you guys, I can get really really intense, especially when I'm angry.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I believe you that Mars opposite the sun is really it's yep.

Speaker 2:

If anyone has that one.

Speaker 1:

I'm just sending you love. So I, I apologized for that and then I I said I love you and I'm that. Was it? Like I didn't feel guilt, I didn't feel shame, I wasn't mad at myself. I was actually like pat on the back, laura, good job. You could have been way worse than that. That could have ruined our whole day, but it didn't. We had a very intense, dramatic family meeting, very performance-based theater. I was feeding everyone water and I was feeding everyone water, and then we talked about it and even Philip owned up to it and he was like sorry guys, I shouldn't have talked to her about money before she had. So like we all owned our shit. It was so lovely. So I'm really grateful for the lessons that I've learned. While Pluto went through Capricorn and like the whole 2008 to 2024 and the growth, I saw it all right there on Sunday morning. It was very interesting.

Speaker 2:

Amazing. Well done you. That's not easy stuff, that's tough stuff, that's real hard. But yeah, that's that's, and that sounds also very pluto capricorn, you know, very transformational, very rigid, yeah, and pluto is super transformational. So it, like it, slowly transform those rigid things about yourself that you really don't want to change, because you think that they're perfect and right, because they're just right and because that's because that's how you like things to be, but might not be the most progressive and, um, yeah, flexible and the way everyone can be their best self.

Speaker 1:

Exactly, Exactly. It was just an interesting thing to take note of of what was happening that day transit wise. Like I looked at it later on in the in the afternoon and it it was just kind of mulling it over for a little while of like what, what have I changed from 2008 to 2024?

Speaker 2:

I was like, well, I became a mom and I became a mom five more times, yeah, and and I learned how to, how to just handle my power way differently way different so take a look in your own charts and see what pluto has been teaching you and what's been going on for you, yeah, and if you have any planets, um, at the final degrees of capricorn, like 29, 28, 29, 30, then you will feel this a lot. Then you're going through like a massive sort of last kiss from Pluto of transformation. You know forever You're not going to, he's not going to kiss you in this way ever again. So make sure to enjoy it.

Speaker 1:

And then we had Uranus. Also was going retrograde that day as well. So September 1st was a big day for kind of like pull back energy.

Speaker 2:

Retrograde yeah.

Speaker 1:

We had a new moon in Virgo, which was on the 2nd, so how? Did you yeah, how'd you do with that? I feel like I'm still feeling that. Yeah, uh, your brain's trying to think back what you did yesterday about it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah but what I, what I am thinking is that a lot of people universities here in sweden they started, uh, yesterday. So on the new moon in virgo and it's it's like you can't get a more like yeah, going back to school, starting school energy than a new moon in Virgo. Like new moons are all about starting a new, like a fresh start, like fresh air beneath the wings. And then Virgo is all about like, all right, do I have my book, do I have my pen? Do I have my calendar?

Speaker 1:

What classes do I have?

Speaker 2:

Routines, yeah, routines. Where do I have my book? Do I have my pen? Do I have my calendar? What classes do I have? Routines? Yeah, routines. Where do I need to be? Yeah, and like, what's my, what's my new? Like I definitely, uh, now, not specifically yesterday, but a couple of days ago like have written down like a more like a workout routine, like, yeah, and that's also super Virgo, so the sun is in Virgo now and Virgo is very much about, yeah, getting your routines, getting getting your life in order, getting your health in order, and really you have that detailed eye to to see these things clearly, and you're a little bit more strict to yourself because you have your inner critic is a little louder, and so you can hear those things like, hmm, isn't it good if you take a like? Is it good for with a walk? Yep, get your, get your health focus.

Speaker 1:

I actually just grabbed my supplements on the way out. I was like what? I haven't taken my supplements in a while. Let's grab those and grab those.

Speaker 1:

I was mindful about my, my health. All of a sudden, this last two days for sure, I've been stretching a little bit more, like it's like I got into my body and started to go oh, what do you need now body? Yes, sorry, I forgot about you for a little bit while I was floating around in my head or playing out in the summer, right Leo time. But I think getting him to my body was definitely what I was feeling. And, yes, we were paying bills. I was so proud of myself.

Speaker 1:

I got some of our bills set up on automatic payment and they're a little bit smaller and more often so in the end, we'll end up paying more off throughout the month, but because I'm doing more bite size each week, it's oh, that sounds good and I just automatically set it up through our, through our online system and it felt so good. It felt so good and then I'm like look it, I did that and it didn't even hurt.

Speaker 2:

And you know what I just realized that I did also. Uh, just maybe two days ago, I ended subscriptions that I'm not using. Good girl, yes, that's also. Thank you, virgo, for that. Uh, yeah, you know, this money like going out of your bank account and I'm not even noticing, it's just going by every month and I'm not even using the product. Yeah, yes, because, because I forget I that I got that thing that that's subscription, so that's a great thing to do now in virgo season.

Speaker 1:

And subscriptions that you're not using, so we did that um I think four or five days ago we ended some and then the money that I was sending to that subscription I just transferred and put into my investment account.

Speaker 1:

Oh, good girl, so it was already going out the money was already good, I wasn't missing it, it was already going out, but I wasn't using the service, so so I took that exact amount I think it was like $9 or something and I put it into my monthly little squirrel away acorns thing that I have. So, yeah, another $9 a month towards that. That's the best advice I've heard in a long time.

Speaker 1:

And I you guys, I have Chiron and Taurus. Don't take financial advice from me, ok, like don't do it, but this is just something I have, like I'm proud of myself because clearly I wasn't missing that. Nine dollars and 17 cents a month, I wasn't. So if I'm paying somebody else, I might as well just right over transfer apps. And then I now I'm paying myself an extra I't know how much a year and investing it. It's investing. That's the kind of Virgo new moon you can use.

Speaker 2:

That's what we want to hear. That's amazing, I know yeah.

Speaker 1:

Guess what? Mars is leaving Gemini and he's going into cancer.

Speaker 2:

I like that.

Speaker 1:

I like that.

Speaker 2:

I like cancer a lot.

Speaker 1:

It's one of my favorite energies, yeah I feel like it's less foot in mouth syndrome. Mars was in gemini and 10. That tends to be action and really quickly and sometimes speaking, and so that looks like saying things before you think it or you know, and and that was going through my first house. So I'm always really, really cautious and pay attention to where Mars is when he goes through.

Speaker 1:

Gemini in my first house because I'm really notorious for foot and mouth syndrome and now I like it when he goes into cancer, because it's more like you're in a boat Right, like you're in a boat and you can. You can travel on the water like a jet ski, or maybe it's a, maybe it's a paddle boat.

Speaker 2:

I don't know how fast your mars is going, but I feel like I'm at paddle boat speed right now yeah, I like that and I'm sort of thinking like with mars, because mars is our drive, the force that keeps us going forward, and we do need that in our lives, but we don't always need it to go at full speed. And I feel like mars and cancer is when I'm thinking of a boat. Now, you know how it's going full speed and then it's going like it's slowing down and, um, maybe just like bobbing on the waves a little bit. Maybe you're putting up a sail and you see oh, the metaphors today and you see where the where, where it's taking you at. Basically, I just feel like mars in cancer is has a lot to do with you know, listen, like with your gut feeling. Like, okay, you have your drive, but where, where are you gonna take your drive? Where it's it's heading? Um, you need to get your drive where it's heading. You need to get it Like. This will help us get more in tune with our gut.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like your core needs, your core family, your core needs, yeah, kind of getting that, using that energy as a protection of family and loved ones. And I think it's more of a compassionate energy it's. It's not just kind of flying around in Gemini all over willy nilly like the wind winds blowing that way. It's blowing that way. It's just blowing garbage all over the place. Now, with Mars and cancer, I feel like it's a little bit more intentional energy and cause. When you're on the water and you're with water, it's. It takes effort to move through water or on water, whereas with the air it's just you just throw it up and it goes. But water needs some more manipulation, it needs to be. You got to have some energy directed more intentionally when Mars goes into.

Speaker 1:

Cancer directed more intentionally. When Mars goes into cancer, so this one, you can really intentionally direct this towards your loved ones, your family, yourself being more compassionate with your own needs, your self-care, and I think Mars will be there for the rest of the year, so this is more like a wrapping up of the year.

Speaker 2:

When you described Mars just now, I just felt like you know how a captain on a boat really needs to know, get to know the ocean and how the ocean behaves, and needs to be very in tune with the ocean and how it behaves. To listen to the ocean like that's what we need to do. We need to be that captain on the boat and the boat is our drive and to listen in, like, like, how is the water behaving? Okay, how can we you know what do we need to do on this boat to to get us where we want to go and not harm us, like we can take it slow and flow with the water instead of fighting against it.

Speaker 1:

Fight. You don't want to fight the current.

Speaker 2:

I am right, yep.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I like that. And remember that water doesn't flow in a straight path. So when you're driving, when you're Mars in Cancer, you're not going to drive in a straight path. Your path needs to flow, it needs to curve, it needs to bend. Sometimes it looks like you're going backwards. That's okay, you'll.

Speaker 1:

You'll go back around, I promise you know some rivers are windy and you got to just flow with the water. You can't go. Well, I want to go on a straight path. Okay, too bad, this is a tourist season. We don't blow our way through things. No, thank you.

Speaker 2:

I saw this thing like a meme sort of thing on Instagram the other day where they're comparing two different balls going on in like a little what's this called Like a roller coaster, like one ball was going straight, sort down on angle, the other one was going up and down, up and down, up and down, and they release these two balls at the same time and the ball that arrives at the goal first is actually the ball that goes in the up and down motion, not the one that's going straight down. Momentum meaning that yeah, like, and that's life, you know, just because things are going very up and very down doesn't mean that you're not getting where you're going, and even like faster than just going straight good one.

Speaker 1:

I like that. I like that, it's true, it's true, it is true. Yeah, a lot of people, I think, end up calling me for uh readings and such when they're in that you know up and down energy, or that the river has curved back around and they're like I'm just going backwards. Well, no, not really Like you are, but no, it's okay, it's you got to go around and that's, that's the path.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you're on the path.

Speaker 1:

You're doing fine, yep. Oh yeah, it's sometimes you get. You can't see it when you're in it, though, right.

Speaker 2:

No that's.

Speaker 1:

That's the tricky part. And on the seventh we might be in it a little bit because the sun the sun is going to be, uh, which is in Virgo, will be opposite to Saturn. So this one's always powerful. Whenever Saturn's involved, we always want to pay attention. So the seventh, we've got a sun opposite Saturn energy, virgo and Pisces. Anytime we're talking these two energies, we're talking about health, physical health and spiritual health, mental health and emotional health. You know daily routines and you know sleep routines or whatever Like. You've got to have these opposite, equal and opposite health realms. So we've got our sun, the conscious mind, rolling through Virgo. So what are the daily routines we're doing? How are we spending our time? And analyzing that? And then Saturn, on the other side of the universe, over in Pisces, is asking us about our boundaries and our structures and our routines that we're doing with our compassionate, healing selves, our spiritual selves. So taking a good look at those energies. On that, day.

Speaker 2:

I think would be a really good thing to do day, I think would be a really good thing to do. Yeah, and I think that this is gonna give an energy that is feeling quite restrictive around your person and like your will power, because the sun is like the sun is the core of you and it's sort of what makes you shine and what lights you up. And and then having that right opposite to saturn, who wants us to grow up and mature and like slows us down a little bit, that can be a little frustrating, but I think this is really asking you, like you know your core wantings, like, okay, where, what is this willpower doing? Yeah, what is the reason behind, behind this? Is this really? Is this your true identity? Is this something you want to shift? Is this something you need to grow into?

Speaker 1:

all of that yeah, I'm just happening soon, september 7 yeah, I think those are really great questions to ask, and I I know that's stuff that I ponder while I'm out, you know, cutting grass or doing my yard work. I like to think about those. How am I spending my time, especially when we're talking about Saturn. We've got to talk about time.

Speaker 1:

You know and I just talked to my husband this morning. I said one of the things that is going to be changing this fall is I want to read more. I have a million books I love to read and I just have not been carving out that time to sit and read, whether it's for learning or for fiction or whatever. I just want to read these books. I have so many amazing ones just staring at me, like waving at me on the shelves, like hi, we're here. So I want to read more. And then music has been really calling to me. So guitar lessons and piano lessons actually just got on my calendar. I signed myself up for piano lessons, so yeah, oh my God, that's so cool.

Speaker 1:

Twice a month I'm going to be meeting with a piano teacher and doing piano lessons for myself, and then I'll probably teach the kids and I'll be the instructor for them. Yeah, and then guitar lessons. Philip and I are going to do those. So I that's very Piscean energy.

Speaker 1:

Yes, it was the musicality and I've been meaning to get that happening and it just has not gotten on the calendar and I thought that's it. I want this to happen. So reading and music lessons are on our schedule and I planned on doing that this week and it feels like a very sun opposite Saturn thing to put energy and effort into. I love that. Yeah, nice, I'm glad to know I'm in the flow here.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and on the 8th of September Mercury goes back into Virgo, because it went backwards into Leo when it went retrograde and now it's moving back into Virgo and Mercury is very happy in Virgo, so it's nice to have Mercury going direct again, I think.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. It feels really good there no-transcript will be square to jupiter in gemini, just that that will be like a hold on to your money kind of day. Um september 14th, venus in libra is trying to jupiter in gem. This is really nice. Both Venus and Jupiter are two of the more Every planet has energy that can be used in various ways, but Venus and Jupiter just feels like the two planets that are the least intense, although Jupiter can like obnoxious, but not intense in the way that Mars and Pluto and Uranus you know.

Speaker 1:

So let me ask you about this one. I've been looking at this transit coming up for a while because it hits my chart very auspiciously. So Venus will be in Libra and she will be conjunct my natal Saturn, okay, and my natal Saturn is trying to my natal Venus. My natal Venus is trying to my rising sign.

Speaker 2:

Jupiter will be conjunct my rising trying to my natal Saturn, which is going to be conjunct Venus, which will be trying to my natal Venus, okay, I'm really right, okay, so it'll be I just feel like I'm going, like I'm just seeing, so it's a grand trine and the grand it's a grand trine the planets involved are natal Venus, natal Saturn and rising sign.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and then Jupiter on the rising and Venus on natal Saturn. So there's, it's a lot of this feels really nice I'm. I'm really hoping I get a boatload of money yes, yes, that's what's gonna happen.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep. I can say it.

Speaker 1:

My plan is. The universe is going to bestow this on me of money and I'm gonna go.

Speaker 2:

Thank you so much however, that shows up I would be surprised if you don't get a boatload of money. No, but I'll be surprised if you don't, around this date, find or like really just fall upon opportunities. Yes, because you know, uh, you can have the most amazing transits and nothing might happen. Like you might get lots of opportunities but you might not go for them. That's totally up to you. So it's not all just about like what's the universe going to do. You also have to do something to make it. You know you have to take action. It's up to you. So I I would be really surprised if you don't stumble upon like really really awesome opportunities around these states.

Speaker 1:

I am praying for them to be very clear, like a gigantic billboard. I'm like come on, spirit homies, make like cause. I know this transit's coming. I've been been watching, I got another big bit, I have another big something coming in October too. But for this to line up with Jupiter and Venus, like all of this is, it's a it's a rare occasion, it's a rare event and I've been like feeling it for months. I'm like Phillip, something's going to happen. I can feel something financially is going to happen in fall. I know I've been saying this probably since April or May. I'm like this fall something, something this fall, I don't know, financially, something's going to shift. And then I saw these transits and I went oh, so I'm really hoping, because we've been putting it out there for whether it's our farm with an investor or sponsorships or I don't know if the student loan stuff is going to go through with the government, I don't know how this is going to happen. Maybe a million people will become Patreon members or members of the Cosmic Mama Collective.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, yeah, but however it shows up, I am open for it. Yeah, all of the Cosmic Mama Collective, I don't know? Yeah, but however it shows up, I am open for it. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

All of the above, please, all of the above, all of it.

Speaker 1:

One day our show gets picked up by Oprah and then all of the people hear us, we're going to be on Oprah. Yeah, and then Tony Robbins will call us and suddenly I'll be. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2:

I could. Tony Robbins will call us and suddenly I'll be. Oh my gosh. Well, jupiter is going to be on your ascendant. You say yes on the rising sign. If we know anything about Jupiter is that it enhances things and the ascendant is pretty much you like how you are perceiving life and how life and the people around you perceive you, so they're going to perceive you as pretty like you going to be you. People are going to notice you. People are going to notice you. You got a new haircut ready to go for it. It looks amazing. It looks amazing. It looks amazing. I love it.

Speaker 1:

So I'm really excited because this is a big day, no matter what if you are just in general a human on earth. Right, it's lovely, this energy is lovely to have Venus and Jupiter trying to each other but.

Speaker 1:

If it lines up nicely in your chart with other auspicious things like, maybe Saturn. Maybe you've been working really hard on creating the foundation of things and you're all set and ready to go and your bank account is open and waiting for the funds to show up. Maybe, maybe, if you've been doing that, maybe the money will come.

Speaker 2:

This would be a fun one to look at, to check your chart and see what houses will venus and jupiter be in. Andini, not its home, but it's buddy. It's home away from home, I would say. But jupiter likes gemini, so this is oh how nice. Okay, september 14th. I'm going to a concert this day, are you?

Speaker 1:

I literally have it circled on my calendar and I put the big money sign. Already have it on there, we're good cool, okay, okay, we're excited.

Speaker 2:

We're all excited about September 14th.

Speaker 1:

We'll keep you posted oh my gosh, and then a couple days later on the 17th we have a full moon and an eclipse it's an eclipse.

Speaker 2:

I forgot about those things.

Speaker 2:

I did too. It's been a while. Our last eclipse was, I don't know, april, I guess. Yeah, this happens like uh, twice a year we have eclipse season and now eclipse season is upon us, and eclipse season for those of you who don't remember it's um, I always think of it as a very like, very fated, like it feels like it's very, it's, it's very like karmic and fated, like there's a lot of evolution happening during these times and it's sort of a lot of big things and big changes happening. They happen in pairs, these eclipses it's a lunar eclipse and then it's a solar eclipse and the energy is also very all over the place.

Speaker 2:

You cannot predict, it's very hard to predict what's going to happen during an eclipse, because that's the energy. It's like a. You put firework in in a in a dumpster, yeah, and you don't know where it's going, like it's just shooting around and you don't want to open the lid because you have no idea if it's going to shoot you in the face or not. So this is like a time to just to really, really be mindful, like, like, take, take a step back as much as you can, just observe what's going on around. You. Don't take too many actions. You don't need to like. Things are going to be happening. You're going going to probably need to make some decisions here and there, but you don't need to go and start new things.

Speaker 1:

No, this is definitely a time to actually look back at the issues you have been ignoring. Right? Don't start something new. Just look back at. Like maybe you did put fireworks in a dumpster and now you've got to go clean up that mess after it blew everything up.

Speaker 1:

Right, you got to go back in there and look at the damage that you caused when you don't want to. So this is very much like pay attention and get to the root of the issue, or the health issue, or the emotional issue, or your, your, maybe your daily routines are not working for you and you have to adjust that. When we're dealing with Virgo and Pisces energy, maybe you got to adjust your sleep and give yourself more sleep. Shut off the electronics earlier. This is all like stuff you kind of need to address and quit ignoring. I think Pisces is very like, very like. You know, put those rose-colored glasses on and with the full moon in this lunar eclipse, we have to take those off yeah, and and you won't like they will.

Speaker 2:

You can try and, and, like you know, keep those glasses on, but then someone's going to rip them off from your eyes. Uh, it's your eyes. This is also a full moon, so full moons are when our emotions are, like on the outside of our skin, like everyone's, very emotional. The moon rules our emotions, you guys, and the moon is full. The moon is lit Right.

Speaker 1:

It's really an energy of feeling, everybody's feelings, absorbing emotional way tuned in, I feel like if anybody is super sensitive to energies. Pisces, full moons are probably the most difficult for you, because it's you just. This is going to be a really intense one and it'll be happening late. Degree virgo and pisces, so take note if you have anything there. Yeah, my mercury is at 25 degrees pisces.

Speaker 2:

This should be interesting I feel like there's definitely gonna be some revelations of some things that you didn't want to see or didn't want to look at inside of you and in your surroundings that are going to peek its ugly head through and you're going to have to look at it and face it and deal with it and it might be very emotional because it's a full moon and it's Pisces and it's an eclipse.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, absolutely Give yourself some extra, extra space, extra time you can sleep in.

Speaker 2:

If you can take an extra hour in the morning, call in late to work for an hour yeah, like don't plan lots of things, because we know that if we plan lots of things we're going to get stressed, and we don't need stress during the full moon right then on the 19th we go into a nice trine with the sun is still in Virgo and then going to be trying to Uranus in Taurus.

Speaker 1:

So this is a nice energy where we can kind of step into some spontaneity a little bit. We can maybe have a little bit fun, do something a little outside of our normal routine, maybe splurge on something a fancy drink or something but get yourself something that's authentic to you. Maybe you need to step out of your normal routine and go do something that is in your authentic self, which is what Uranus loves to ask us to do. So that's a nice day Nice, lighter energy.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and then on September 20th, you just stay in bed all day because the sun in virgo will be opposite to neptune in pisces, and whenever the sun and neptune are having a harder conversation, you will just feel you, you will feel tired, drained. So, um, if you can just do yourself the favor of honestly like sleep more, sleep more, drink a lot of water and sleep more.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, for real. That's literally the sun shining on the bed Like a cat. You ever see a cat just curled up in bed in the sunshine? Right, this is like cat in sunshine day, just curl up in the bed and just purr and go off to sleep.

Speaker 1:

And practice your boundaries. Yep, it's a Friday, so make sure you're just giving yourself some space and time. And maybe you need to take a Friday off or maybe you need to just whatever you need that day. Be sure to tune into your intuition. Your intuition is going to lead the day and if you go against what your intuitive energy is saying, it'll be a little bit challenging of a day. You got to listen to your intuition this day specifically.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And it's probably going to say go to bed, yeah, or read in bed, that's fine, yeah, just rest, yeah, rest, yeah. Then the next day we've got the sun is also having another nice conversation with Pluto and Capricorn. So we've got sun and Virgo trying to Pluto and Capricorn, which is I. Like the trines. Those are easy, like driving around a roundabout. It's just easy to access all of the roads. You just hop off, hop back on.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and I love a trine between Sun and Pluto.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yes, so powerful, yep stand in your power, kindly and authentically, after you just had a whole day of sleep. You were nice and rested from the 20th and now, the next day, you can stand in your power and analyze things with the sun and Virgo and late, late degree Virgo, very late degree Virgo, so very mature Virgo energy, and we're going to analyze the structure of what's working in our life and what isn't working and we're going to use our Plutonian power in Capricorn to readjust the foundational needs.

Speaker 2:

Including asking for a raise.

Speaker 1:

Maybe you're not making enough money, so that's adjusting your foundational needs right, asking for a raise or promotion or saying, hey, I would like some recognition for this thing that I did at work, so speaking up and and getting recognized on the 21st on September 22nd we have two things, and the first is a sun entrance, libra.

Speaker 2:

We have a new sun season and also on the same day Venus in Libra will be square to Pluto. So with the Venus square Pluto, that's tension and sort of power struggles within relationships, but also within what you value. It can be like a struggle within your finances, because Venus also rules your finances. So around September 22nd just sort of be mindful of what's happening around your finances and also relationships.

Speaker 1:

Oh well, I'm going to get all that money. So now I have to manage all the money. So you know, I'm going to think about what to put it on. I got to figure out how to how to work this and what things to purchase. Oh, I like this.

Speaker 2:

It's all right, I can manage that.

Speaker 1:

The fall equinox is something to take note of too. When the sun enters into Libra, that is the fall equinox. So this is where, first of all, go get your pumpkin spice latte and your sweater right, but also do something to celebrate this day. This is the entering of a new season, a new energy, a new like the shifting right, the shifting from one one hemisphere to the next and, and moving that, the whole planet. You can kind of start to feel that tilt changing right.

Speaker 1:

Especially us in the Northern Hemisphere. We really feel it up here. But, take note of the fall equinox and what can you do to celebrate and come together in relationship and what are you merging together with relationship within yourself and within your family and what can you let go of from the summer and enter into in the fall and then make sure you really evaluate people pleasing because Libra season is, I like to call it the people pleasing season.

Speaker 2:

So making sure we're being clear with our boundaries. People pleasing seasoning instead of pumpkin spice seasoning Worst joke ever. That's all right.

Speaker 1:

I loved it. All right Fall equinox. And then what else? We've got Venus and I was going to say later that day.

Speaker 2:

So we have the Venus in Libra, square Pluto and Capricorn, but a little bit later that day day, venus actually moves into Scorpio. Oh nice, I like that a lot.

Speaker 1:

I do too, it feels like get her sexy on.

Speaker 2:

I'm bringing sexy back yeah so we have Mars in a water sign, we have Mars in Cancer and now we have Venus also in a water sign, in Scorpio. I like those two planets, at the same time being in the more sexy, intense scorpio.

Speaker 2:

I like the shifting of the energies like that that feels good, feels like a healthier balance than if it was the other way around yeah, yep, and this is it just feels so accurate to have venus going into scorpio, because this is like when the like the witch season begins, right like end of september, we're gonna go into october. We're all gonna like start watching our favorite witch movies, make lots of herbal teas, get a little mysterious and like I feel like you just go, you go. The thing is, you go within, it goes. It's dark outside, you go within to like to find answers, and I really like this season of the year and it's like it is coming closer to that time when, when the veil is super thin to the other worlds, yes, um, I love this and it's, it's super magical, it's really really super magical and like intuition is just like heightened.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I really love this. I love when you start pulling the plants out of the garden and wrap that up and, like all nature starts to like take a big yawn and starts to wind down and you don't have to cut the grass as much and it just feels like everything just starts to get into it. They actually die like.

Speaker 2:

I love that. Like nature starts to like in the northern hemisphere, nature starts to die and rot and it's amazing because that's exactly what it's supposed to do and that's so, scorpio like it. Everything is dying around us and it's beautiful. It's a magnificent big old funeral for nature and rest and then, like rebirth, again in in spring I love that you mentioned like doing the tarot cards and stuff like that too.

Speaker 1:

It definitely feels like that's funny.

Speaker 2:

I didn't say that, but I was really. I was thinking tarot, tarot. I was thinking I don't think, I said no, I think, but I was thinking I heard tarot, tarot, tarot. I was thinking I don't think, I said no, I think, but I was thinking. I heard you say it in my head, because that's what I did.

Speaker 1:

the other day, I said it in your head. Yes, I think it feels like this season for sure, like the witch season. You're right, it does. It feels very magical. And I don't know how much I appreciated autumn, but I really I've always had this affiliation or attraction to it or with it, you know, at the time. But now I have, I don't know, much more of a mature appreciation of it. It's just I like to just stay in the energy.

Speaker 1:

Even just yesterday we were outside. It was beautiful out, absolutely beautiful, and we were working on the disc golf course cutting trees beautiful, and we were working on the disc golf course cutting trees and we were just tending to yard stuff, burning stuff, and I could feel it right, I could feel it in the air and as the sun started to go down.

Speaker 1:

It started to get colder faster, right, like all of a sudden the heat disappeared really quickly, where last week or the week before that the heat stayed right, but this, all of a sudden the dampness settled in and all of a sudden you could just chill, Right. We had the windows open last night and the baby crawled in bed with me and he was like chilly. His little thighs were chilly and I was like, oh, it's cool, I like it. I sleep so much better when it's cold outside too.

Speaker 1:

So I'm looking forward to this season for sure, I can feel it. I hope you guys like fall, because we do yes, can you, can you tell?

Speaker 2:

can you tell? I think, uh, our first, um, our first october that we recorded, we had so many episodes on like Scorpio Pluto, like death and rebirth and like we were just loving talking about it. It was intense.

Speaker 1:

We just kept going. And now, here we are again, rambling more. Yeah, I love it. What else is happening for the rest of the month?

Speaker 2:

Mercury is mercurying around and doing, having a try into Uranus on the 24th, opposition to Neptune on the 25th, a try to Pluto on the 25th as well, and then entering Libra on the 26th.

Speaker 1:

Busy dude.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he was going backwards for a while.

Speaker 1:

Now he's got to play catch up. Yeah, exactly, deliver all the messages he got when he was.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

So he's had conversations with Uranus on the 24th and we've got some energy there with kind of chaoticness with how we think and speak. So just be aware of that. On the 24th, the opposition to Neptune could easily make your brain feel tired, just like that sun opposite Neptune would. So this is maybe another day, the 25th. Maybe you want to just plan on not thinking too hard on this day but go into creative mode instead. Maybe do some, maybe do some art or some flow work or some writing or something like that flow writing, but not necessarily. Maybe not spreadsheets and hard analytical stuff. The 25th, Yep. And then the 25th is also Virgo, Mercury and.

Speaker 1:

Pluto, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so I like this Mercury trying to Pluto. So this I think this can really help us to get new ideas around quite transformative stuff, like you know, changing up some heavy set structures and Pluto is a very powerful planet. So I think that you know this is going to fuel our mind and our thought process a lot these days, so it can be great to sit down with some projects to rebuild some ideas perhaps.

Speaker 1:

And also going back to the 24th, I saw business meeting in my head like people sitting at a board table like signing papers.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and I also think for the 24th, when mercury is trying to urinus, that's a day when you can have this like lightning bolts of ideas, also because uranus is chaotic, but chaos can bring the best revolutionary ideas, yeah, yeah, new revolutions, absolutely.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, mercury is really active 24 25, then entering into Libra the 26th. So be mentally prepared for those couple of days 24, 25, 26.

Speaker 2:

Take some breaths there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, mental stimulation for sure. And then, when Mercury enters into Libra, we can, we can really take into consideration the opinion of the other. We can think of the we instead of just the I yeah how does this decision affect that person? How does this decision? What would they think about this? Really thinking about how we can kind of create harmonious decisions and and think about things in a harmonious way yeah it's a good way to end, and then I like that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we have a little mars trying to saturn on the 29th and then on september 30th sun and libra contract, mercury and libra seven is the 29th is the mars and cancer and saturn and pisces and trying to.

Speaker 1:

each other feels like it feels like the weather and the boat and everything is in harmony and we're just like out on the beach and it's just lovely weather and there's boaters, like things are just flowing well. We can really take care of things well. There's a fluid flow right. There's just a lot of energetic flow when it comes to doing healing work, being compassionate, taking care of things, being empathetic. You know our drive and ambition to be more compassionate is there. We can be more mature about it and take our time to process the emotions around things. That feels just, in general, like a nice day.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think so too. And then ending with sound conjunct Mercury, which is just yourself, your core, blended up with how you process the world and ideas, and where you will have your focus. So your focus will be on you, and that's really nice. I think that we will need this after, like after that full moon eclipse in pisces in the middle of the month, I think everything happening after is sort of like really great ways to touch on different, different parts of yourself, to sort of land. Yeah, I like that it feels.

Speaker 1:

that feels like a lovely wrap up to the month. Certainly not anywhere near the energetic crap that August had. There wasn't quite the words to describe the middle of August, and it definitely was a ride, that's for sure. But this month feels much more in flow, much more in flow. It does yeah that's September, you guys, I like it, I like it.

Speaker 1:

I'll take it for sure, I'll take the big money day, and then there's the week later. There's the day where we get to manage the big money. Look at it, it's even in the calendar. The planets have it planned out for me. It's lovely.

Speaker 2:

Perfect, perfect. We don't have to do anything. And if you want us to write down the transits in Patreon, we can do that. Let us know on Instagram if you would like us to do that, and also, it's a great idea to follow us there, because there we let you know when there's a new episode out. We'll let you know if there's something special coming up or if there's some changes. So you can find us under ram and goat astrology and we do have patreon now and our name is ram and ram and goat astrology. Of course, I don't know why I hesitated. Um, we also have the option that you can go to buy me a coffee. You know that place when you can go and support people with whatever they're doing, and you can go there and buy us a coffee or tea just to sort of support us and um, that's it. We also have a YouTube channel where you can not only listen to this episode, but you can also see us.

Speaker 1:

Yes, and if you'd share us with a friend. We would super appreciate if you'd share us with a friend. I think that's how we've grown already is just very organically, and we certainly appreciate the shares from our listeners, but that's really how people have. Heard from us is, or heard of us is, just you know, sharing it one at a time, so we can't thank you enough for choosing to listen to us and all of our ramblings.

Speaker 1:

It's so fun. But yeah, we're going to make some, some changes here. We're going to shorten our episodes up a little bit in the near future and just make a few shifts a little bit in the near future and just make a few shifts. It won't be too dramatic, but just kind of make it a little bit easier for us as recording it and being in different time zones, in different countries and all the things. So we appreciate you listening and tuning in. Thank you so much, everybody, and we will catch you next time.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, bye, now Bye.
