Hi, how are you? We have quite a beautiful week this week. This will probably be a short one unless I get caught on a tangent, which is highly possible. I wanted to start by talking about Chiron and Venus, which have just met in Aries. Chiron's been here since, I think it's 2017. I could be wrong there, but it's there for, it's in Aries for nine years and it's making its way into these last degrees. It's there until 2027. I just looked it up. Moved there in 2018 and will finally move out of Aries in 2027. And. I think it's interesting that we've just had this conjunction. We're still in the conjunction, but it's moved over Chiron now with Venus there. We've just had this venous retrograde. From Aries into Pisces and back into Aries, and now as she spends her final week in Aries this week, she moves over Chiron here and it feels like really touching in on. What may have been a theme for some of us during this Venus retrograde? The around the worth and the value that we hold in being able to sense our instincts, our wants and our needs and desires, and feeling worthy of taking action towards those things. If any of us have any. Love stories that do not incorporate us getting what we want and what we desire. That may have been a theme over the last week, and I think it's a beautiful time as we are in this final. Week of having Ven Venus here in Aries to again anchor into, feel into in our body. What those wants and needs and desires are. I know a lot of you, myself included, have really been able to ascertain more of what that is for ourselves and to really bring more of this fire of forward momentum of being linked to what. We desire into the foreground of our realities. And I think, again, it's a great time to anchor into what is the why, what is the desire? Why do I want these things? Because when it gets rocky, which I know for a lot of us, it it, it has been. And for a lot of you, it won't be. And high five. It's always great to anchor into all what are the reasons, what are these desires? So if this has been part of your work this year in terms of, again, really clarifying and anchoring into and getting the intel from your body, from your being as to what more of your desires are now and in this lifetime, and as you then. It's a great time to revisit those things. I had, I was in Maria's mythology class who I interviewed in a couple of episodes ago. If you haven't listened, I recommend listening to that. She's a legend. Uh, and in that class she was telling us of a creation story, which, and then she, she was really. Making us aware of the creation stories that were part of our own childhoods, and in the West, they can be kind of bleak or ones of punishment or nothingness of no meaning. Like the coincidence of being a human alive right now. Based off of a big bang, millions and millions or billions of years ago, whatever it is. And the story that she told, she explained was a relational creation story. It was linked to all of these other animals and woman. It wasn't just a God who placed these people here on earth and then they got in trouble. Um. And it really, as we were going through the class, it was quite emotional for me because I felt like this visual I kept getting was, it's like I was a brain that was just bouncing along on top of the earth. And so for me, since that class, I've again been working on what does it look like for me to live deeply to live? In tune with my body and my own senses and pleasure, and to engage with life more from body intelligence, earth intelligence, rather than my capacity to understand and analyze and perceive reality. And so it's funny, like I'm saying this, and we're in Gemini season where we're engaging with reality and we're becoming aware of how we label and thus receive and perceive the experience of our lives. And such a great medicinal antidote for any of you who have a lot of air in your chart is grounding, is being on earth is. Being in body. Um, and for me, I was writing my diary last night and a lot of it was around, again, what I'm desiring, basically what I'm speaking to you about today. And so much of that was really related to me reclaiming more of my, let's say, wilder woman archetype, the wilder self. The less tamed self who is intuitively tapped in and moves instinctually and has a level of knowledge that is beyond mind, which all of us have. Uh, and that's, that's kind of how I'm navigating this week. Is bringing in more of these rituals that I have, and then I'm sure a lot of you are the same. Like, I have these rituals that I bring into my life and they make me feel so nourished and inspired to be here, to experience this, to do the work that I want to do in in all areas of my life. And then you feel great. And then you can get lax with them. And then there has to be this remembering at some point like, oh, I have stopped doing those things. I need to come back to them. Partly why I'm saying this is because we are just entering the quarter moon phase today, and we'll be here until late Wednesday. The quarter moon phase is when if you look up into the sky over the next few nights, you'll see that moon is half. Light half darkness. When we get the first quarter moon, that's essentially a week after the new moon. The last quarter moon is a week after the full moon. So we're in the first quarter moon. This is where action is meant to take place. This is where the Intel drops in more around. What were the spells that I cast for my own reality on this new moon? What did I bring into word? What did I, through voice or through writing? What did I lay down here? And this first quarter, moon is here in Virgo. Virgo, and it's here in Virgo until Wednesday night, which is also ruled by Mercury. And the new Moon was ruled by Mercury. Here in Gemini. So we've gone from concept, idea, spell to action, which is really where Virgo works best. Yes, it can analyze things to the point where it has no energy to act, but Virgo works best when it makes the moves, and then it refines from there. It takes the action, then analyzes the action. So what are you able to do in this first part of the week that is aligned to those desires that you cast on the New Moon, or that you have been refining and casting and refining and casting since we've had all of these Mars and Aries Retrogrades in these first months of the year, this is a good check-in time. And with these first few days of the week here in Virgo and in the Quarter Moon, we're also able to notice the daily habits, the daily rituals that we have. Are they aligned with the directions that we're moving towards? How are they nourishing us and inspiring us? To live beautifully, live artfully, live the way that we want to live. The Sun and Mercury are also aligned for this week and from Wednesday onward. The sun and Jupiter are aligned in these last degrees of Gemini. Jupiter moves from Gemini into cancer next week on my birthday. I'll speak to that in next week's episode'cause that will be there for a year. But with Mercury and Gemini. And Jupiter in Gemini, what we're able to see or sense is more of the vision, is more of the broadness of what is possible in our own sense of beliefs, our self beliefs, our faith in reality, in the reality that we're perceiving and labeling and maybe bringing more consciousness to. What do we feel is possible for ourselves? What are the spells that we're casting with our words around that? In our conversations, in our self-talk, and this is really around here. What is possible? If there was no limits, what would the vista of your life be? This is a time to be contemplating the broadest vistas, the broadest visions, the highest visions that you feel connected to. And then on Saturday, Venus will move into Taurus. So we'll spend around about a month with Venus here and she lives here. This is. Her sensual haven, this is the Temple, one of her favorite temples to revisit time and time again. This is a time to enter into more of these devotional rituals that you have anchored, anchoring you throughout your day to yourself, to beauty, to beauty as. A gateway drug into higher states of consciousness. I think that's all I have to say. I hope it's a beautiful one for you. And next week we will talk to Jupiter in Cancer and the full Moon in Sagittarius, which will be next Wednesday. Goodbye.
