Hey, how are you? I am, it's Saturday when I'm recording this, the 15th of November. I've just finished my morning readings with some great legend clients, and I just feel called to record this now before I have my lunch and get ready for my arvo sessions. We have a great new Moon coming up on Thursday. If you are listening to me in the Americas, that will be your Wednesday night and it will be your Thursday morning in Europe here in Auslan. It's 5:47 PM Thursday evening, 20th of November, my sister's birthday. What I wanted to say before I jump into the New Moon is something that just came up with both clients, and I'm sure for those of you who work in these realms, there's always these amazing through lines. And here with this morning we have this amazing Neptune Sutton conjunction in Pisces, right? They're both together again at 29 degrees of Pisces. Worth looking up and seeing what you have at 29 degrees of Pisces or what house this is in for you to see where this energy is being activated. But that's here until the 26th of Jan. Which is when Neptune will move forward into Aries and then the 13th, 14th of Feb, when Satin will move forward into Aries. But we've had this dance where they were together for a long time, then they both moved over into Aries. Now they've both come back again and they've settled into being back together, conjunct each other at 29 degrees of Pisces. And then early next year they'll move back into action orientated willpower, magic of Aries. And so what was interesting, my first client, who was also a graduate of astrology school, absolute ledge. Her sun is at 29 degrees of Pisces. And then my client just before, an amazing medium and beautiful visual communicator. Her moon is at 28 degrees of Pisces, so this conjunction was heavily, involved in one's life force and one's. Emotional, intuitive self. So I just wanna speak about this combo of them dancing over this sort of between the worlds of Aries and Pisces. Uh, so here in Pisces, where again, in this space of the vision and. The pragmatic play out of the thing. Neptune is the vision. It's the feeling of the thing. A lot of us. Likely have a feeling that something's coming next in our personal lives or collectively we may not be able to see the the visual of the thing. However, Neptune in Pisces is also very, very clairvoyant, so you may have the vision again. There's a real resurgence in our own, I wanna say our own symbolism. Our own Dream Worlds Daydream Night Dream Worlds. The language that's specific to you that goes far beyond words is, is activating this final degree of Pisces. As we move from 29 degrees of Pisces into zero degrees of Aries, we do so via a birth canal. You know, Pisces is everything beyond time and space. Aries is a baby kicking and screaming upon arrival. It's like we're going from the womb space. There's no sense that I'm an individual. I'm floating in the embryonic fluids of the cosmos. And then Aries is, here I am. Here's my wants, needs and desires. Here's my will. I'm a singular being. What is the action that I'm taking? So I just wanna remind all of us, because it really clearly came up this morning that we're in this space again, where we were earlier this year of this conjunction between. One of these great psychic antennas in our solar system, Neptune, this realm of fantasy, this realm of symbolism, of magic, and this line between what's real and what's not. You know, what's a fantasy and an illusion. Versus what is for me, but it's also this widening of the scope of possibility, meeting time, space, gravity, the coordinates of Earth as governed by Saturn, the ruler of Capricorn. This is, what am I in devotion to? How am I showing up in my life? And because this is Pisces, this partly feels like, and this is certainly something that I've been, tending to and working with in my own life. Satin in PIs. Yeah, it's a lot to do with boundaries. And here in this conjunction with Neptune as well, what are the boundaries that you hold with yourself? Are you boundaryless with yourself or are you showing up in devotion to your life, your life force? Something that came to me and I said to both clients this morning, I think self-mastery is the conscious articulation of one's own life force. Like, how am I articulating my life through the way that I am showing up in my life, through what I am doing, with the energy that I have come here with, or that I'm cultivating? That's self-mastery. And there's something here around self-mastery of the vision, self-mastery of our intuitive abilities. But yeah, it's like the vision or the feeling of the next chapter. And when that clicks over into late January, early February next year, willpower gets involved. Action gets involved, which isn't to say you can't act now, of course you can. But yeah, we're back in this space. We had this sense of them in Aries together, throughout this year. What came up for you during that time? What have you taken action towards this year and what have you not? And why? I love this time of year. It makes me so happy, to be in this space of getting deep into what's coming up for me and the why of it all. But also. It just makes so much space for me to really get even more clear on like, well, where do I wanna put my energy next year? And I've been writing about that so much just in my own diary. And again, it's very simple. The things that I'm wanting to do. There's a simplicity to them, which I think we're going to see a lot of. You know, it's overcomplicating. Things. C just consumerism, being on the, this fast-paced treadmill of, gotta make the, gotta be seen, gotta be present, like need to show up, need to be, you know, to sell X, Y, ZI don't know, like, you know, I talk about this ad nauseum, it must be so boring for some of you. But, I just feel a very strong no to all, all of that. Which isn't to say that I don't launch things. Wait till I tell you about astrology school shortly. You know, like, it's not like I'm not selling. I don't know, I'm getting carried away here. But what is genuine to you? Where do you want to put your energy? Where are you putting your energy and why? Remember, Jupiter is in cancer. Until mid next year, what is meaningful is felt like What's nourishing you and is that meaningful? Or does it fall into the category of a fix or a comfort that isn't, that is actually a choke hold. Let's talk about this new moon because it's gorge. As you know, mercury is retrograding right now. Today it's at four degrees of sag and this week it's going to wind its way backwards, into Scorpio. And what do you know come the new moon? The sun will be at 28 degrees of Scorpio. The moon will be at 28 degrees of Scorpio and Retrograding. Mercury will be exactly at 28 degrees of Scorpio. But wait, it doesn't stop there. Remember, we had this amazing, relationship between Lilith Mars and Mercury a few weeks ago. Lilith. Is going to be 26 degrees of Scorpio, so it is a huge part of this New Moon as well. And then Lilith at 26 degrees will also be in a conjunction with Venus, which on the New Moon will be at 16 degrees of Scorpio. So there's a lot going on here with this new Moon. It's very powerful. And because the retrograde Mercury is a part of it, we're reassessing an energy that we were just hanging out in a few weeks ago when there was that Venus Mercury conjunction. Now we're back here. We're reassessing something, we're revisiting something. And while Mars isn't a part of this picture, I must say, before Pluto was discovered. Mars used to be the ruler of Scorpio. It's referred to as the ancient ruler of Scorpio. Now it's Pluto and it very much should be like if you know anything about Pluto, it fits. But the reason that I'm bringing that up again is a big theme for many of us has been articulating a whole new awareness of what we actually want and desire. And that's been a huge theme for me this year, and part of within my own personal self. I'm very malleable. I'm very adaptable. I, I, in some areas, can avoid confrontation or not even consciously. And over the years. You know, part of being an astrologer is really getting to understand yourself and see yourself almost like through this objective lens, you know, of the chart. And really being able to assess that part of myself and seeing how much it has, seeing how much I've shape shifted, not for several years, but. How in the past I have shape shifted into forms that just are not resonant with who I am. And then at some point I, you know, I have to take my natural form and it doesn't fit in the space that I've cultivated for me, the life or the relationship that I've cultivated. As a byproduct of being very malleable and intuitive and reading the room first and all these kind of things. A byproduct of that was that I wasn't in some areas. Very, very in touch with what I want. Work easy peasy. You know, I have Aries in the six house. I know what I want and I have the energy to make it happen. Like, love it in other areas, more adaptable, right? And so what I found is that a byproduct of being so malleable was that I had lost a connection with my own wants, needs and desires in certain areas of my life. And then a huge reckoning happened for me this year where. It is like over years, I'd built the safety within myself to hold space for more of myself, for more of me to, show up and be alive, if that makes sense. And I realized where I wanted to be in the driver's seat with my own life, where I wanted to live, without going into it because I can't. And the easy thing about not being connected to your desires is you don't have to do any of the work to go and get them, or you don't have to make other people uncomfortable or unhappy when your desires and wants and needs go against theirs. And so for me. This year has been a reckoning because I recognized, oh, whoa, I actually want X, Y, z, blah, blah, blah. And it took me a while to activate that because I knew it was going to be a very bumpy ride because it wasn't just my own self that was involved. And so I had to enter into a whole fields of confrontation and I have more like self-respect and, self-worth and all these things because I did that, like, because I took more direction here. More of what's possible for me is making itself known to me, because I took the reins, I'm sitting in the driver's seat in more areas than just work world. It feels resonant with this new moon because part of being in your power, which is a huge theme of Scorpio. It is literally just sitting within the seat of your own person, being your own authority, being in charge of you, and part of being in charge of you is acknowledging what you want and need and desire in this lifetime, and that requires then going after the thing. So this is a powerful new Moon phase, which we'll get to spend the weekend here. You know, and again, it's this coming together of consciousness, the intuitive self, the emotional self, the energetic self lilith, what's hidden, what we may have felt shame around, which is a scorpion theme as well. What we may have really buried deep underground. And then a very inquiring, inquisitive, curious, open mind. That is revisiting territory here. There's something that Lilith here in Scorpio has to speak or say or transmit to many of us. And yeah, my desire for you is that you're able to carve out the time and the space to inquire. Yeah, it feels potent. I'm not gonna pretend I do, new moon rituals. I don't. Sometimes I will. It depends on the chart, it depends on my life. Depends on the day that it falls. But this is one where, you know. I have weekends to work and to be in my own energy, and that's when I'm doing a lot of my journaling and whatnot. So I will certainly be carving out the time to revisit this. Lilith was shamed and exiled for being in her power. I guess, yeah, I'd leave you with that. Like when I say to you, what is the version of you that's fully stepped in to the full force of who you are, who's she or he? Like what? What, what are, what's that version of you doing in your life? What is that version of you articulating into form? Astrology school will start in February. We have a booming wait list, and I will open the doors to the wait list, probably in December. So those of you who already know that you want to go, you can secure your spot. But this is for any of you. You can go onto level two if you really want to become a reader. Or, you can go into level two if you wanna read these finer, more trippy expressions of astrology. But level one, which is what begins in February, is for anyone who wants to learn this language and travel through your own chart. I'm a ninth house person. I'm very experiential. Personally, I feel the best way to learn is through experience. And the way that I've framed Astrology school is like a good reader is somebody who's really journeyed through their own chart. They know themselves, you know, by me knowing myself and embodying myself. The trials, the tribulations, the gifts, the abilities, the, the potholes. By me understanding all parts of myself, I think that's what makes me a good reader. I'm able to hold that space for others regardless of where they are in that journey.'cause I've journeyed through myself. I'm always doing that. But I'm able to hold space for that. You'll learn the layers, the four layers of this language. Every week you'll get to see me unpack different charts, all of your charts that will, who will be in astrology school. So you'll get to have that firsthand experience of seeing and exploring lots of different expressions of astrology, lots of different expressions of charts. And then hearing how your fellow students experience their charts. So you're getting so much firsthand intel. Uh, and then you'll also journey through you. I, I just, whenever astrology is never going to go outta fashion, I don't think it's, it's been. It's had a pretty steady run for the last 5,000 years, and it has many thousands ahead of it. The more that we go into these times of re-articulating what life, society, culture is, what we want it to be, what we want home life or work life or family or community to be, we are going to want to come from a bedrock of deeply knowing ourselves. Understanding ourselves, being on journey with ourselves at peace with ourselves, embodying who we are. And Astrology School offers you the tools that you can use for the rest of your life. Number two, on the 6th of January, which is a Saturday, I will be speaking into the astrology of next year, I'm getting very excited about it. I've started putting the presentation together and I'm putting together a workbook as well that will go hand in hand with that. You can buy tickets to that down below. Replay will be made immediately available. You'll get all the intel of next year in terms of the transits that are happening, but then how that plays out in terms of what archetypes, what energy is coming forward, and what is it calling forward in each of us individually and as a collective. You know, part of the beauty of being an astrologer is you're just reading, you're reading patterns, all the time. And yeah, so I'll be decoding that for you and that's it. More things brewing. But yeah, I hope it's a great new moon for you. It's one in which you're being called to hold space for all of yourself to see all of you, and to. Honor it with through holding space for it. You're, it's, it's intimacy with you. It's not running away from, it's not trying to repress or hide. You know, this, the, one of the less conscious versions of Scorpio is it's hell manipulative. It will control how it's being perceived or it will project all of its stuff onto you, the person you're in partnership with, or, let's say in a work relationship with, you know, unconscious. Scorpio will not look at its own stuff, but place it on you. The a third party and then berate you for all of it and try and control it, all those parts of you, rather than looking at the self and going like, okay, I see, I see there's this jealousy here, or there's this, I'm just trying to think of like less kind of attractive qualities, quote unquote attractive qualities. There's information, everything that's running through your body. Is just information, repeating patterns, incredible information, repeating emotions. Somebody, a particular person triggering the hell out of you time and time again. So much meaty information there for you. So what I would recommend, because Mercury is a part of this, retrograding, mercury bring a level of intellectual curiosity to the table. You know, because you feel this way doesn't mean you are this. Because you feel this way doesn't mean that they are this. Just honor yourself by sitting with yourself, like bathing in your own waters and noticing what comes up and being aware of the fact that you have the capacity to take new shapes that are deeply resonant with who you are. And the more that you do that, the more that the world you engage with will feel like one that is nourishing. Have a good week.
