In this 2 part episode, Craig discusses Barbault's Basket, the unique formation of the planets that form a basket or bowl shape around the Earth. The alignment is named after Andre Barbault, the French astrologer, who said that "this formation causes the reset of civilization!" Wow! While we're not sure that it's going to be that monumental, because of its rarity, it will certainly have an effect. But what? Find out here!

So in the last episode, I talked about why alignments are important and what they are and how they represent geometric patterns that form between the planets. And most of the time, we don't really talk about them publicly because they're too complex in a way for the media to be able to explain to people. So they get glanced over. But this week we have an incredibly rare formation called Barbolt's Basket. And it's something that was first noticed or coined by André Barbolt, who was a French astrologer in the early 1900s. He was born in 1921. So the Barbolt's basket is a fascinating formation because it's harmonious. It's not a formation that is in conflict with itself. And the one that's forming uh this week, basically, we're we're very much in it today. When I looked at uh the uh alignments of the planets last month, I saw that all the outer planets were going to be at four degrees, and I thought, wow, this is very, very unusual that they're going to be exact. So I want to say something about that. And I know that this episode is going to be some technical astrology, but it kind of needs to be. So I'll try to explain it. The planets move through degrees of the zodiac, and each degree is its own spot in the sky. When you have uh four of the outer planets, in this case, we're going to be talking about Pluto, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune. They're all in different signs and they're all at exactly four degrees. This is very auspicious and unusual. Let me tell you, it doesn't happen. In the 45 years that I've been doing astrology, I've never seen anything like this happen. So it's fairly unusual for me. I know that 45 years is not too long of a time, but it's not something that has even really been noticed, probably for close to 100 years. The basket formation is two planets that are opposite each other, and then two other planets that are in a like a harmonious hexagon formation. In astrology, we call them sextiles. So it's like half of a hexagon, is what it really is like. And if you look at the formation from the Earth's point of view, it looks like a basket or a bowl, something like that, right? It forms like a curvature because again, it's if you can imagine half of a hexagon. The importance of this particular alignment is that it is Pluto in Aquarius. That is what is opposite Jupiter in Leo. And then the sextiles or the little hexagon half pieces are Neptune in Aries and Uranus in Gemini. So Jupiter in Leo is fire, Uranus in Gemini is air, Neptune in Aries is fire, and Pluto in Aquarius is air. It's a harmonious formation in fire and air. So to start off, it's about some level of creativity and communication or motivation or action or our ability to have an individual thought or impact on the world around us in combination with our ability to deliver those thoughts. When I look at this formation, this is what I see. I see a new level of young leadership using innovative communication styles to help people and themselves transcend the individual ego through actually the dynamic individual ego that they are in an effort to transform the masses, Pluto and Aquarius. So Jupiter and Leo, youthful new leadership using innovative communication style, Uranus in uh Gemini, for the purpose of creating elevated individuality, some kind of a new layer of a transcendent understanding of how we can be individuals and we can still work with each other, work for each other.
