What are the planets saying to each other in your birth chart?

Professional astrologer and educator Dr. Stormie Grace joins ParaTruth: Reborn to discuss her book, The Big Book of Planetary Aspects: A Comprehensive Guide to Natal and Transit Astrology.

We explore the meaning behind conjunctions, squares, trines, oppositions, sextiles, and quincunxes—and how these relationships can influence the way astrologers interpret personality, relationships, challenges, opportunities, and major periods of our lives.

We also dive into:
• Natal charts vs. planetary transits
• Challenging vs. harmonious aspects
• The lunar nodes and angles
• Fate vs. free will
• Astrology as a tool for personal growth
• Skepticism surrounding astrology
• Whether planetary movements influence us or reflect something deeper
• The mysterious relationship between consciousness and the cosmos

Can astrology actually tell us who we are—or are we simply finding patterns among the stars?

Join Justin and Erik as belief meets evidence on ParaTruth: Reborn.

00:00:00.740 --> 00:00:03.980
Coming up on Paratruth Reborn, I'll be talking to Dr.

2
00:00:04.099 --> 00:00:09.349
Sturmey Grace about her book, The Big Book of Planetary Aspects.

3
00:00:13.089 --> 00:00:15.830
Welcome to Paratruth.

4
00:00:40.729 --> 00:00:46.109
How's it going, Paratroopers? Welcome to another episode of Paratroop Reborn.

5
00:00:46.530 --> 00:00:49.630
My name is Justin, and tonight we are looking to

6
00:00:49.670 --> 00:00:52.490
the stars, but we're going quite a bit deeper than

7
00:00:52.579 --> 00:00:56.210
asking what your zodiac sign says about you. If you

8
00:00:56.310 --> 00:00:59.689
ever pulled up your birth chart, you've probably seen a

9
00:00:59.890 --> 00:01:04.489
giant wheel filled with symbols, planets, houses, and a bunch

10
00:01:04.689 --> 00:01:09.099
of lines running through the middle. Unless you already understand astrology,

11
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:15.500
it can look somewhat overwhelming. And tonight, we are going

12
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:21.510
to be bringing on Stormy to talk about all of that. Stormy,

13
00:01:21.810 --> 00:01:23.489
welcome to Characters Before.

14
00:01:24.569 --> 00:01:26.890
Yeah, thank you so much for having me and hello

15
00:01:26.909 --> 00:01:28.829
to everybody. It's nice to be here.

16
00:01:30.450 --> 00:01:35.629
So before we get rolling here into the depth of

17
00:01:35.670 --> 00:01:38.560
the book, tell us a little bit how you got started.

18
00:01:40.060 --> 00:01:45.000
Oh my gosh, it's just like the most simple story. Honestly,

19
00:01:45.019 --> 00:01:49.120
I was young and my mother realized that I was

20
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.480
experiencing the world a bit differently than my brothers were

21
00:01:53.540 --> 00:01:56.599
experiencing it. And so she ended up taking me to

22
00:01:56.620 --> 00:01:59.799
a metaphysical fair, which is cool, you know, and I

23
00:01:59.879 --> 00:02:03.170
liked it. And I enjoyed seeing the herbs and the

24
00:02:03.189 --> 00:02:05.409
crystals and all the things. And that was really beautiful.

25
00:02:05.450 --> 00:02:08.729
But I was like, these are my people. But we

26
00:02:08.789 --> 00:02:12.430
went to an astrologer's table and she was handworking a

27
00:02:12.490 --> 00:02:14.729
chart for the lady in front of her. And it

28
00:02:14.770 --> 00:02:17.530
was just a recalling. I just had a recalling like

29
00:02:17.629 --> 00:02:21.069
I had done it a hundred times or a hundred

30
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.919
lifetimes or something just deep in me. already knew what

31
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:26.719
she was doing and I could track and I could

32
00:02:26.759 --> 00:02:29.419
follow what she was doing. And that was it. That

33
00:02:29.460 --> 00:02:32.020
was when I knew for sure that astrology was going

34
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:34.430
to be a part of my life, but I wasn't

35
00:02:34.550 --> 00:02:36.889
exactly sure how it was going to work. And I

36
00:02:36.930 --> 00:02:40.250
was never afraid that it was going to leave me

37
00:02:40.330 --> 00:02:42.710
or that I was going to like not have that

38
00:02:42.770 --> 00:02:45.849
as a part of my life. So that's how it

39
00:02:45.969 --> 00:02:49.379
actually made itself known and came in in a very

40
00:02:49.460 --> 00:02:54.009
conscious way. And then I started to study formally, um,

41
00:02:55.229 --> 00:02:58.189
a bit more under after that, you know, I got

42
00:02:58.210 --> 00:03:00.710
a bit older and I picked up books from Stephen

43
00:03:00.750 --> 00:03:03.219
Forrest and then I got a bit older and I

44
00:03:03.250 --> 00:03:06.620
picked up books from Noel Till. And this is how

45
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:09.460
I really got in and started to shape what it

46
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:10.360
is that I do now.

47
00:03:10.379 --> 00:03:18.979
Now, I've always been fascinated by astrology. Um, and you know,

48
00:03:19.419 --> 00:03:23.909
like I mentioned earlier, the, I've always been fascinated by Zodiac.

49
00:03:23.990 --> 00:03:28.250
I've seen how the Zodiac really plays a part in life,

50
00:03:28.669 --> 00:03:33.090
but I've never gotten an astrological part done or anything

51
00:03:33.110 --> 00:03:37.449
like that. So for those that just know just Zodiac

52
00:03:37.550 --> 00:03:41.319
and not like it beyond that, what exactly is a phantasm?

53
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:45.240
Yeah.

54
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:47.759
So inside of the birth chart, if you look, you'll

55
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:49.979
see the zodiac signs that are there. And most people

56
00:03:50.020 --> 00:03:52.280
at least know their sun sign. If nothing else, you know,

57
00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:56.000
we've been very well taught that. But inside of your chart,

58
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:59.699
there is a whole world of archetypes and dynamics that

59
00:03:59.740 --> 00:04:04.110
are having conversation. And when we're talking about planetary aspects,

60
00:04:04.430 --> 00:04:08.270
we're talking about two different planets or more sometimes having

61
00:04:08.310 --> 00:04:11.870
a conversation in your chart or in the sky. And

62
00:04:12.150 --> 00:04:16.949
what is happening in that conversation that may be energetically

63
00:04:17.730 --> 00:04:20.810
giving us some signal to events that are occurring or

64
00:04:20.910 --> 00:04:26.060
flowing through your particular chart? This takes your chart from saying, oh,

65
00:04:26.220 --> 00:04:30.079
I'm a cancer, right? And it means all of these

66
00:04:30.139 --> 00:04:34.079
fun keywords about cancer to, yes, I'm a cancer, but

67
00:04:34.259 --> 00:04:37.040
also in my life or as part of my journey

68
00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:41.060
this time, I also need to really work on showing

69
00:04:41.129 --> 00:04:45.480
my assertion because there's a conversation with my son and Mars.

70
00:04:46.100 --> 00:04:50.139
So it's really when we get down to the planetary aspects,

71
00:04:50.379 --> 00:04:53.100
it's what gives your chart the texture and the nuance

72
00:04:53.220 --> 00:04:56.680
and something for you to even be talking about or

73
00:04:56.740 --> 00:05:00.500
looking at what you're working on or working with if

74
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:02.120
it's something that's an aspect of ease.

75
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:15.399
You describe astrology almost like it's a language. What does

76
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:18.149
it mean to be fluent?

77
00:05:18.189 --> 00:05:23.410
Yeah, absolutely. This comes from the idea of fluency in

78
00:05:23.470 --> 00:05:28.009
any language because astrology to me, it's just another language

79
00:05:28.050 --> 00:05:30.149
that we're speaking. And I promise you, if you go

80
00:05:30.209 --> 00:05:33.740
to an astrological convention, you'll be like, what are these

81
00:05:33.779 --> 00:05:38.490
people saying? Because they're all speaking to each other in astrology. essentially, right?

82
00:05:38.949 --> 00:05:41.930
And I came from being a language learner and a polyglot.

83
00:05:42.069 --> 00:05:44.610
And so along the way, I realized that I could

84
00:05:44.649 --> 00:05:46.970
pick up certain words in the beginning of learning a

85
00:05:47.009 --> 00:05:49.920
target language. And, you know, that's great because you can

86
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:52.740
let people know you're trying or kind of engage a

87
00:05:52.899 --> 00:05:58.379
little bit. But without getting more sentence structure or understanding

88
00:05:58.420 --> 00:06:01.790
how to build the conversation, you cannot build connection and

89
00:06:01.850 --> 00:06:05.470
fluency together. with other people in that language. And astrology

90
00:06:05.589 --> 00:06:09.529
is exactly the same. Every piece of that chart or

91
00:06:09.629 --> 00:06:11.730
every piece of what we work with is a piece

92
00:06:11.769 --> 00:06:14.899
of the sentence structure, is a piece of the grammatical

93
00:06:15.019 --> 00:06:17.699
flow and how we are having the conversation about what's

94
00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:21.720
happening in the chart. And then eventually, it becomes the

95
00:06:21.779 --> 00:06:24.879
place where you're fluent enough and you can read and

96
00:06:24.990 --> 00:06:28.250
speak and write these things to connect with another human being.

97
00:06:29.180 --> 00:06:31.160
And to make it make sense and to have that

98
00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:33.199
back and forth closeness of conversation.

99
00:06:33.220 --> 00:06:39.120
It's funny you bring up, you know, learning enough to

100
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:42.000
kind of get by because that's kind of how I've

101
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:45.000
gone through life is like I was in Spanish class,

102
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:49.079
but I only got enough and vaguely understand the conversation.

103
00:06:49.100 --> 00:06:53.040
I actually learned Italian when my wife and I went

104
00:06:53.060 --> 00:06:56.120
to Sicily because I wanted to at least be able

105
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.970
to say a couple of things or do something.

106
00:06:58.990 --> 00:06:59.350
Yeah.

107
00:07:00.189 --> 00:07:04.649
Uh, now is it saying themselves in like, like when you,

108
00:07:04.689 --> 00:07:08.139
when you, uh, you spoke good night, you're going to

109
00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:11.980
be in Australia. I mean, when I heard of them,

110
00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:16.600
I understand. Yeah. It's exactly the.

111
00:07:18.500 --> 00:07:18.720
Same.

112
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:23.899
It's exactly the same. And for me, I think that

113
00:07:24.060 --> 00:07:26.939
whatever the language is and whatever your purpose is for

114
00:07:27.100 --> 00:07:29.939
using it, a little bit of the language goes a

115
00:07:29.990 --> 00:07:33.050
long way. A little bit of astrology goes a long

116
00:07:33.110 --> 00:07:37.069
way because even understanding the different signs or the different

117
00:07:37.129 --> 00:07:40.569
planets that are in conversation in your chart or your

118
00:07:40.610 --> 00:07:43.889
child's chart or your spouse's chart, this can change the

119
00:07:43.910 --> 00:07:47.410
dynamic of conversation in your home in general because the

120
00:07:47.449 --> 00:07:49.589
way we're going to teach and treat each other and

121
00:07:50.009 --> 00:07:54.220
grant grace to each other around things becomes easier to

122
00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:57.620
do because we understand the language that we're speaking. Now,

123
00:07:57.740 --> 00:08:00.350
I mean, of course, at higher levels, if you want

124
00:08:00.389 --> 00:08:03.649
to be doing Spanish literature, just being able to order

125
00:08:03.670 --> 00:08:07.189
a coffee is not going to get it done. And

126
00:08:07.250 --> 00:08:10.490
astrology is very much so the same way. So If

127
00:08:10.730 --> 00:08:14.050
all you have the capacity for is to understand the

128
00:08:14.089 --> 00:08:16.810
sun signs in your home or in your life, that

129
00:08:17.029 --> 00:08:18.730
is going to do a lot for you. And as

130
00:08:18.750 --> 00:08:20.860
you go on and on and on, and you're able

131
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:23.920
to build this fluency in this conversation, you can tell

132
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:27.000
more and get more nuanced into what is happening in

133
00:08:27.019 --> 00:08:29.040
a chart or to what is happening in the sky.

134
00:08:29.060 --> 00:08:32.740
No, I know.

135
00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:33.879
It's just.

136
00:08:36.009 --> 00:08:37.769
Short, but then.

137
00:08:49.049 --> 00:08:52.720
We're talking about where the planets were by the Western

138
00:08:52.779 --> 00:08:55.360
sky at the time that you were born. Now, one

139
00:08:55.379 --> 00:08:57.899
thing to know is that in Western astrology, we followed

140
00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:01.539
the seasons, right? As opposed to if you're listening to

141
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:05.850
one of our Jyotish practitioners or one of our practitioners

142
00:09:06.350 --> 00:09:08.850
of light, or they're called Vedic astrologers to some people,

143
00:09:09.299 --> 00:09:12.679
They are following the constellations, right? So you're going to

144
00:09:12.740 --> 00:09:16.759
see that depending on the type of astrology, because astrology

145
00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:19.419
has different types as well, but depending on the type

146
00:09:19.470 --> 00:09:21.429
of astrology that you're doing, you're going to see that

147
00:09:21.490 --> 00:09:24.070
the planets are in different places depending on the system.

148
00:09:24.389 --> 00:09:26.769
But that is exactly what we're talking about is where

149
00:09:26.809 --> 00:09:29.409
were the planets at at the time that you were born?

150
00:09:29.490 --> 00:09:33.210
In your snapshot of the sky, where was Saturn? Where

151
00:09:33.250 --> 00:09:37.559
was the sun? What generation were you under? Under Pluto.

152
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:40.379
We want to know all of these things because it's

153
00:09:40.500 --> 00:09:43.019
like a guitar string. It's like the way I try

154
00:09:43.059 --> 00:09:45.639
to describe it is that, you know, if you strum

155
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:49.500
a particular string on a guitar, everything that is in

156
00:09:49.539 --> 00:09:52.690
that vibration and on that string is going to resonate.

157
00:09:52.750 --> 00:09:54.389
It's going to move. It's going to have a certain

158
00:09:54.450 --> 00:09:58.049
sound or it'll be pronounced a certain way. And it

159
00:09:58.190 --> 00:10:00.600
is the same thing when we look in an astrologer. chart.

160
00:10:00.740 --> 00:10:03.399
We know that people who were born under Pluto and Leo,

161
00:10:03.460 --> 00:10:06.659
they're going to have a similar mentality because they came

162
00:10:06.850 --> 00:10:10.970
up in a generational time, you know, where the ideas

163
00:10:11.009 --> 00:10:13.450
and ideals were the same. So we want to understand

164
00:10:13.889 --> 00:10:17.940
how does that shape the conversation? but it is, in fact, Wastato,

165
00:10:18.299 --> 00:10:21.340
the actual planets and where they were at the time

166
00:10:21.379 --> 00:10:21.899
of your birth.

167
00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:35.549
Actually, like, the input of birth.

168
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:44.299
Yeah, absolutely. Where it's at will depend the houses. Tell

169
00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:47.250
us which area of your chart or which department of

170
00:10:47.299 --> 00:10:50.289
life your planets are putting a lot of emphasis on. Um,

171
00:10:51.230 --> 00:10:54.990
so it won't necessarily matter where it's at in the chart.

172
00:10:55.129 --> 00:10:58.370
It's more so understanding what the planet is trying to convey.

173
00:10:58.429 --> 00:11:00.179
So we can just go through the planets really quick

174
00:11:00.220 --> 00:11:03.730
if that's okay. Um, So the sun, of course, most

175
00:11:03.750 --> 00:11:05.710
people know their sun sign. And the sun is the

176
00:11:05.750 --> 00:11:07.990
planet in your chart that is saying, I am. This

177
00:11:08.070 --> 00:11:10.129
is me. This is how I want to express myself.

178
00:11:10.169 --> 00:11:11.850
This is how I want to be seen and what

179
00:11:11.889 --> 00:11:14.080
I want to be known for. So there is a

180
00:11:14.220 --> 00:11:17.279
huge presence of the sun. And if we think about

181
00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:20.419
it planetarily, the sun does not hang out in the background.

182
00:11:20.460 --> 00:11:22.399
And it's like, oh, I don't know. Maybe I'm thinking

183
00:11:22.419 --> 00:11:24.970
about being the sun today, right? Where the sun is

184
00:11:25.110 --> 00:11:28.129
at in your chart, you want to and you will

185
00:11:28.190 --> 00:11:31.279
shine in some kind of spotlight like that. When we're

186
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:34.299
talking about the moon, this is more about how I feel,

187
00:11:34.779 --> 00:11:38.799
how I react, what I need emotionally to nourish me

188
00:11:38.820 --> 00:11:42.600
and to make me feel safe and secure. So depending

189
00:11:42.700 --> 00:11:45.850
on the sign placement of your moon, you may get

190
00:11:46.009 --> 00:11:50.769
your filling your security and nourishment cup filled very different

191
00:11:50.929 --> 00:11:55.629
than maybe a sibling does, right? Mercury is our planet

192
00:11:55.820 --> 00:11:59.059
of communication and of the mind. So wherever Mercury is

193
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:01.980
at in your chart, sign, and house, this is where

194
00:12:02.019 --> 00:12:05.700
and how you communicate. You disseminate information. You gather it.

195
00:12:05.820 --> 00:12:10.360
You process the information. It's also where you may, depending

196
00:12:10.379 --> 00:12:13.019
on what sign it's in, have the ability to be

197
00:12:13.139 --> 00:12:17.179
a little bit more double-sided, where you're very much so

198
00:12:17.200 --> 00:12:19.580
this way, but you're also very much so this way.

199
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:25.259
But Mercury essentially handles our communication. When we get to Venus,

200
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:29.549
Venus is how we love. It's how we attract things

201
00:12:29.629 --> 00:12:32.070
to us, what we really value so that we know

202
00:12:32.169 --> 00:12:35.389
what to call and to magnetize to us based on

203
00:12:35.470 --> 00:12:38.519
our own deep values. And it is also the way

204
00:12:38.580 --> 00:12:43.139
that we give and share affection or create harmony around us.

205
00:12:43.179 --> 00:12:46.500
You know, Who were you in your family when there

206
00:12:46.539 --> 00:12:49.659
was conflict? We would look at your Venus. Straight away,

207
00:12:49.820 --> 00:12:51.559
I'd look at your Venus to see how did you

208
00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:56.139
behave to try to keep harmony in that space. Mars

209
00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:59.580
is our action planet. Wherever Mars is at, you have

210
00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:02.440
boots on the ground. You're in action. You're in motion.

211
00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:05.600
You have a deep desire to go directly at one

212
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:08.860
thing because it's what you desire. So you're going to

213
00:13:08.899 --> 00:13:13.090
go that particular direction. So I just like to call Mars,

214
00:13:13.149 --> 00:13:15.710
Mars is your I'm going to get it done planet.

215
00:13:16.230 --> 00:13:18.750
Whether that means I'm going to get it done by,

216
00:13:18.769 --> 00:13:23.370
you know, just taking a tactical practical action or I'm

217
00:13:23.409 --> 00:13:26.840
going to get it done by creating conflict so that

218
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:30.460
we can get into the action that needs to be done.

219
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:33.960
Then we get to Jupiter and Jupiter is our base

220
00:13:33.980 --> 00:13:38.039
planet that we've got going. And Jupiter is about wisdom.

221
00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:41.480
It's our wisdom planet. It wants to expand what it's

222
00:13:41.580 --> 00:13:44.580
next to because it wants you to grow. It wants

223
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:47.259
you to see something from a different perspective, take it

224
00:13:47.299 --> 00:13:50.730
beyond the horizon. But there's a lot of wisdom that

225
00:13:50.769 --> 00:13:54.330
comes with Jupiter because you've had to have experience to

226
00:13:54.370 --> 00:13:59.980
learn Jupiter's lessons, right? So with Jupiter, the only way

227
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:02.960
to get the wisdom is through the experience. And the

228
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:06.299
experience is not always our favorite, but it's not always

229
00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:10.899
terrible either. Then we get to Saturn. And Saturn is

230
00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:16.250
about boundaries. It's about crystallization, putting a construction or a

231
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:19.919
frame or boundaries around something. Saturn is also our master

232
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:23.669
of time. So many very, very important life events that

233
00:14:23.710 --> 00:14:27.169
happen for all of us, provided you don't die, of course,

234
00:14:27.330 --> 00:14:30.889
are going to be happening on Saturn cycles. Because Saturn

235
00:14:31.029 --> 00:14:35.710
is our timekeeper and it wants your maturity. And it's hard.

236
00:14:35.990 --> 00:14:39.759
Saturn can be hard because You can't be immature when

237
00:14:39.779 --> 00:14:42.700
you're dealing with your Saturnian energy. You'll need to take

238
00:14:42.740 --> 00:14:47.029
some action to really step into responsibility and then hold it.

239
00:14:48.389 --> 00:14:50.690
When we get to Uranus, Saturn's created all of this

240
00:14:50.730 --> 00:14:54.269
beautiful structure and Uranus is like, break it down. Let's

241
00:14:54.309 --> 00:14:56.350
break down all of those boundaries. I want to go

242
00:14:56.470 --> 00:14:59.809
beyond that. What else is there? And I always laugh

243
00:14:59.889 --> 00:15:03.429
because this is my favorite example of Uranus, one of many.

244
00:15:03.860 --> 00:15:06.220
But it's like if you build a Starbucks, right? You've

245
00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:09.340
got the cute restaurant, the cafe, that's very good. And

246
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:12.399
then you have the structure of Saturn there. The business

247
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.500
is running. And then Uranus goes, we'll break all this down.

248
00:15:15.580 --> 00:15:18.240
What else? Let's go up. Let's build a rooftop terrace.

249
00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:20.299
I want to see what else is up there. So

250
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:23.220
where Uranus is at in the chart, we're looking for

251
00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:25.860
some kind of liberation. We want to do it different.

252
00:15:25.919 --> 00:15:28.340
We see it different. We've got a little spunk to

253
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:31.929
us where Uranus is at as well. Then we have

254
00:15:31.990 --> 00:15:36.120
Neptune that dissolves the boundaries of things and moves us

255
00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:40.379
in between two different worlds, the world of what is

256
00:15:40.460 --> 00:15:42.500
tangible and we can hold on to and what is

257
00:15:42.679 --> 00:15:47.500
intangible that we create in the ethers. In the Neptunian vibration,

258
00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:52.409
we get a vision for something. Let's say it's a chair, right?

259
00:15:52.509 --> 00:15:54.690
At some point, some people were like, sitting on this

260
00:15:54.710 --> 00:15:57.809
floor sucks. And so they had a vision, there's got

261
00:15:57.830 --> 00:15:59.769
to be some other way for us to sit. And

262
00:15:59.789 --> 00:16:02.779
it was just created in the ether first, and then

263
00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:05.279
it became a tangible reality. And now we've got chairs

264
00:16:05.340 --> 00:16:09.139
all over the place. So in Neptune, we literally dissolve

265
00:16:09.179 --> 00:16:11.720
the boundaries to move into the ether and then bring

266
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:15.250
it into the tangible space. And Pluto, which is our

267
00:16:15.389 --> 00:16:18.429
smallest planet and one furthest away that we work with,

268
00:16:18.990 --> 00:16:23.899
Pluto is about destruction, but it's also about empowerment. What

269
00:16:23.970 --> 00:16:27.090
Pluto touches, it transforms because it will tear it down

270
00:16:27.149 --> 00:16:30.090
and says, this has to die off so that the

271
00:16:30.169 --> 00:16:36.710
next best fitting version can live here. Pluto also moves

272
00:16:36.950 --> 00:16:41.840
so slow through our zodiac that we have generations that

273
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:45.340
fall under Pluto, which is also the same for Neptune

274
00:16:45.700 --> 00:16:49.720
and for Uranus. So these are your planets that we're

275
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:51.879
working with and seeing how they are speaking to us

276
00:16:51.950 --> 00:17:05.630
in the chart. The very first thing I would tell

277
00:17:05.650 --> 00:17:07.490
you to do if you grabbed your chart today, you

278
00:17:07.509 --> 00:17:10.410
had no idea what this thing is, is honestly the

279
00:17:10.430 --> 00:17:11.769
first thing I would tell you to do is look

280
00:17:11.809 --> 00:17:14.670
to the top to make sure your name, your birthday,

281
00:17:14.710 --> 00:17:18.269
your time of birth, and your place is correct. Because

282
00:17:18.509 --> 00:17:21.190
oftentimes this is such a basic thing, but people will

283
00:17:21.210 --> 00:17:23.289
grab their chart and they don't realize that they were

284
00:17:23.329 --> 00:17:27.329
born at 3 o'clock, but they accidentally put in 3.15.

285
00:17:27.329 --> 00:17:30.269
Birth charts change every four minutes. So that is quite

286
00:17:30.289 --> 00:17:32.170
a different chart. So I would tell you to first

287
00:17:32.210 --> 00:17:36.049
of all, make sure your data and information is correct.

288
00:17:36.890 --> 00:17:39.130
From there, I would tell you to look at your

289
00:17:39.170 --> 00:17:43.680
wheel and look directly to the left because the sign

290
00:17:43.740 --> 00:17:46.519
that is directly to the left is gonna tell us

291
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:50.799
what your ascendant or your rising sign is. And this

292
00:17:50.900 --> 00:17:54.819
is the sign that we grow into Certainly as we

293
00:17:54.839 --> 00:17:57.480
get older, but we use it kind of as the gatekeeper.

294
00:17:57.940 --> 00:18:02.920
People meet us here first. You know, my rising sign

295
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:06.279
is Virgo. So half the time when people meet me

296
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:08.849
or they see something that I'm doing that's very public,

297
00:18:09.140 --> 00:18:12.009
it's very well put together. Like it is just very

298
00:18:12.069 --> 00:18:14.470
well put together because I thought of the details, all

299
00:18:14.490 --> 00:18:18.190
of these things, right? But this is kind of my gatekeeper.

300
00:18:18.230 --> 00:18:22.250
I'm not very Virgoan in every other area of my life.

301
00:18:22.450 --> 00:18:25.680
I'm a Taurus. And I'm very Taurian. Oh, my God.

302
00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:27.059
If you come to my house, you're going to be like,

303
00:18:27.079 --> 00:18:29.500
this place is a spa. Because it is.

304
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:37.220
Now, I've always heard that, like, I have rising signs,

305
00:18:37.420 --> 00:18:40.630
descending signs. What does that actually mean when it comes

306
00:18:40.710 --> 00:18:44.130
to Zipu Bertra? If you're born in a Z sign,

307
00:18:44.150 --> 00:18:45.369
you need to be ascending.

308
00:18:47.369 --> 00:18:47.990
Yeah, sure.

309
00:18:48.069 --> 00:18:52.339
So we're just following, we're just tracking the planets across

310
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:55.579
the sky, right? So when we're talking about, we're using

311
00:18:55.660 --> 00:18:57.859
the word as your ascendant, but when we're calling it

312
00:18:57.940 --> 00:19:02.680
your rising sign, what's happening is that this is the

313
00:19:02.740 --> 00:19:07.769
sign that was rising, literally rising onto the world at

314
00:19:07.809 --> 00:19:11.289
the time that you were born. Because the outside wheel,

315
00:19:11.349 --> 00:19:15.940
the zodiac wheel, rotates. The inner wheel, which you'll see

316
00:19:16.000 --> 00:19:18.289
if you have your chart, is your housing wheel, and

317
00:19:18.430 --> 00:19:22.160
this does not move at all. So this is how

318
00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:27.279
you can be an absolutely different rising sign than your

319
00:19:27.380 --> 00:19:31.289
sibling or your husband or, you know, whatever. Or somebody

320
00:19:31.349 --> 00:19:35.450
who is born on the same day, relatively close to

321
00:19:35.509 --> 00:19:38.509
your time, but maybe it's an hour or so separated.

322
00:19:38.569 --> 00:19:40.910
You guys can still have the same sun sign and

323
00:19:40.950 --> 00:19:43.890
have a completely different rising sign, moon sign, things like this.

324
00:19:44.390 --> 00:19:48.650
Because it's just about what was rising at the hour

325
00:19:48.829 --> 00:19:51.859
and the minute that the time was you were born.

326
00:19:54.000 --> 00:19:56.619
And it's rising, it just was rising there over the

327
00:19:56.720 --> 00:19:58.640
eastern horizon and then here you came.

328
00:19:58.660 --> 00:20:07.069
Uh.

329
00:20:12.750 --> 00:20:17.829
Absolutely. Because the planets are the what is going on, right?

330
00:20:17.890 --> 00:20:19.750
The planets will tell us what is going on. Let's

331
00:20:19.769 --> 00:20:22.079
say it's Mercury. Mercury is telling us something in your

332
00:20:22.130 --> 00:20:26.480
communication space and dynamic is happening and unfolding and trying

333
00:20:26.519 --> 00:20:30.740
to express itself. But how? How? Mercury needs a vehicle

334
00:20:31.140 --> 00:20:33.670
to do this. How is it going to get that done?

335
00:20:34.210 --> 00:20:38.150
So if you are a Virgo rising or a Gemini rising,

336
00:20:38.190 --> 00:20:42.420
you have Mercury … as your planetary chart ruler. So

337
00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:46.619
it's the ruler of your rising sign, right? So we

338
00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:49.539
would likely see that you are someone who does quite

339
00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:52.740
a bit of expression. We would see you in public,

340
00:20:52.759 --> 00:20:55.269
whether it's speaking, whether it's writing, or someone who just

341
00:20:55.309 --> 00:20:58.029
talks with their hands. You know, mercurial people love to

342
00:20:58.069 --> 00:21:00.990
talk with their hands. So we would be looking for

343
00:21:01.029 --> 00:21:04.950
that kind of expression. As opposed to, let's say that

344
00:21:05.089 --> 00:21:11.180
you have a Mercury in Scorpio. as you're at your

345
00:21:11.220 --> 00:21:14.700
rising sign. Scorpio is, let's change this around, that Scorpio

346
00:21:14.779 --> 00:21:18.839
is your ascending sign. Then your planetary rulers are going

347
00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:22.210
to be Mars and Pluto. This is going to be

348
00:21:22.230 --> 00:21:24.390
a different kind of feel that we're going to have.

349
00:21:24.490 --> 00:21:28.349
This person may be very friendly, very, you know, okay

350
00:21:28.410 --> 00:21:29.869
out here, but it's going to be a person who's

351
00:21:29.930 --> 00:21:33.359
likely a lot more observant than a person who is

352
00:21:33.390 --> 00:21:37.299
a lot more chatty, right? So you get this different

353
00:21:37.460 --> 00:21:41.769
feel based on which sign is in which position, how

354
00:21:41.809 --> 00:21:45.309
they're going to govern that particular space and help those

355
00:21:45.369 --> 00:21:51.390
planets make that expression. You know, my Mercury is in Gemini.

356
00:21:51.430 --> 00:21:55.859
So again, it's very chatty. It's very, it's comfortable because

357
00:21:55.940 --> 00:21:59.799
Mercury rolls Gemini. So it's very, very chatty. However, my

358
00:21:59.900 --> 00:22:04.220
husband's Mercury is in Aries. So literally I have to,

359
00:22:04.259 --> 00:22:07.599
when he is saying something or he is speaking, I

360
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:10.460
have to kind of watch how he's saying that or

361
00:22:10.500 --> 00:22:14.279
where I'm positioning my body because Aries does not express

362
00:22:14.339 --> 00:22:17.099
in a friendly, flitty kind of way. Aries just does

363
00:22:17.140 --> 00:22:19.549
what it's saying. It's just very direct. This is what

364
00:22:19.569 --> 00:22:21.450
I'm saying. This is what I'm doing. I'm going after

365
00:22:21.589 --> 00:22:25.170
one thing, right? Because it's ruled by Mars. So then

366
00:22:25.210 --> 00:22:29.130
we get a combination essentially of Mercury and Mars coming

367
00:22:29.190 --> 00:22:33.450
together to express something. So this is a cool thing

368
00:22:33.490 --> 00:22:35.430
to learn. If you want to be in partnership with

369
00:22:35.490 --> 00:22:38.730
any other human beings on this planet, learning about their

370
00:22:38.769 --> 00:22:40.539
Mercury sign may help you.

371
00:22:40.450 --> 00:23:00.920
A whole bunch. That paper, I'm jamming. And then you

372
00:23:00.980 --> 00:23:03.140
think you, I got to use rice to the point

373
00:23:03.160 --> 00:23:13.460
that for my house. So the app is, is all

374
00:23:13.720 --> 00:23:17.799
your personality is. I've always slipped acidity by that.

375
00:23:17.819 --> 00:23:30.609
Does, does the astral chart actually, Help explain that a

376
00:23:30.609 --> 00:23:31.349
little bit more.

377
00:23:33.390 --> 00:23:35.910
Absolutely. I mean, it's got its main components, which are

378
00:23:35.930 --> 00:23:38.009
going to be the planets, the signs, the houses, and

379
00:23:38.049 --> 00:23:40.289
the aspects. These are how we figure out what's going

380
00:23:40.369 --> 00:23:42.430
on in there in the first place and how they're

381
00:23:42.839 --> 00:23:46.859
having a conversation with one another, right? But it does

382
00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:50.339
help us get some idea of the archetypes. Like if

383
00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:54.799
someone has a moon, right, their emotions, their security, what's

384
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:58.170
going to make them feel safe when they're engaging and nourishing?

385
00:23:58.769 --> 00:24:00.230
or how they're going to react. If they have a

386
00:24:00.269 --> 00:24:05.170
moon that's in the vibration of cancer, the moon rules cancer.

387
00:24:05.349 --> 00:24:08.130
It's very comfortable. They're likely to be a little bit

388
00:24:08.170 --> 00:24:11.670
more of a homebody. They need family and these kinds

389
00:24:11.710 --> 00:24:14.250
of things are going to be really important to them. Roots,

390
00:24:14.950 --> 00:24:16.950
you know, and this would be important to know because

391
00:24:16.970 --> 00:24:19.390
if you have a partner or you have, you know,

392
00:24:19.509 --> 00:24:23.230
a business associate or a child who's got a moon

393
00:24:23.269 --> 00:24:26.650
in cancer, And you say, okay, we're going to just

394
00:24:26.829 --> 00:24:30.890
redecorate the house or we have to move or we

395
00:24:30.910 --> 00:24:35.279
have to change office. This allows us to have a

396
00:24:35.299 --> 00:24:37.799
bit of grace with each other because what this will

397
00:24:37.859 --> 00:24:41.480
mean for an entirely this human being will be a

398
00:24:41.519 --> 00:24:45.880
different experience than it's going to be for, you know,

399
00:24:45.940 --> 00:24:48.259
the person who's got a moon in Aries who's like, yeah,

400
00:24:48.279 --> 00:24:52.099
whip it up. Let's go. We're going over here. And

401
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:54.559
this is a way that I try to bring astrology

402
00:24:54.700 --> 00:24:57.230
into our lives is to give each other grace and

403
00:24:57.250 --> 00:24:59.250
to give each other a little bit more kindness and space,

404
00:24:59.289 --> 00:25:03.730
but also to understand ourselves. My youngest, my oldest daughter

405
00:25:03.890 --> 00:25:08.049
has a mood and cancer. And oh my gosh, like

406
00:25:08.470 --> 00:25:12.210
when we moved, it was the end of the world.

407
00:25:12.279 --> 00:25:15.740
And she's like, I know intellectually this is not the

408
00:25:15.779 --> 00:25:18.559
end of the world. And she was like, she could just,

409
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:20.970
you could see it. You know, she was really trying

410
00:25:21.009 --> 00:25:23.329
to process that. As opposed to, though, you know, you

411
00:25:23.349 --> 00:25:26.150
have somebody who has a moon in Virgo. They may

412
00:25:26.170 --> 00:25:28.349
want things to be tidy. They may be very, very

413
00:25:28.589 --> 00:25:31.910
concerned about their health and their mental health and their wellness.

414
00:25:32.089 --> 00:25:36.309
These things can be concepts that we can help explain

415
00:25:36.549 --> 00:25:39.549
with astrology or see why it might be important or

416
00:25:39.670 --> 00:25:40.619
impacting someone.

417
00:25:43.500 --> 00:25:47.240
Now, you can catch a howl out of these facts.

418
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:48.039
That's very other likely.

419
00:25:52.170 --> 00:25:56.079
Not completely differently. That's not ever been my experience that

420
00:25:56.119 --> 00:25:58.619
if two people are having the same planetary aspect that

421
00:25:58.660 --> 00:26:03.660
it's 100% different. Now, we need to be really super

422
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:08.900
clear here. You can have twins who are born just

423
00:26:08.920 --> 00:26:12.890
minutes apart, and those ones are literally having the same

424
00:26:12.950 --> 00:26:16.829
planetary aspect and probably to the same houses in that

425
00:26:16.869 --> 00:26:19.759
chart as well. So this is as close to having

426
00:26:19.819 --> 00:26:23.500
the same planetary aspect as that question can truly get

427
00:26:23.539 --> 00:26:27.150
in astrology. But they, even them, they can experience it

428
00:26:27.329 --> 00:26:30.650
differently depending on where they are in their own development

429
00:26:31.170 --> 00:26:36.049
of either one of the signs or the aspects that

430
00:26:36.089 --> 00:26:38.609
are being asked of them. So let's say that you

431
00:26:38.690 --> 00:26:45.460
have someone who's got a sun square Mars aspect that's happening, right?

432
00:26:47.059 --> 00:26:50.960
Let's do sun square Saturn. That's easier to explain, I think.

433
00:26:51.539 --> 00:26:55.220
So for one person, that square, which is an aspect

434
00:26:55.259 --> 00:26:57.809
of tension, which is telling them they need to do something,

435
00:26:58.220 --> 00:27:01.710
and Saturn is telling their personhood, you've got to grow

436
00:27:01.829 --> 00:27:04.190
up or you've got to take responsibility for this or

437
00:27:04.250 --> 00:27:07.509
we're coming to the next level of maturity, right? For

438
00:27:07.730 --> 00:27:11.490
one person, that might feel great. And they are really

439
00:27:11.609 --> 00:27:14.619
comfortable working with Saturn. They've been doing some work behind

440
00:27:14.660 --> 00:27:16.880
the scenes. So they're ready to step up to that

441
00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:20.960
next place of development. For the other person, it could

442
00:27:21.000 --> 00:27:23.539
feel like a shock where they're like, I don't want

443
00:27:23.579 --> 00:27:26.789
to take this responsibility on. This is hard. This feels heavy.

444
00:27:27.210 --> 00:27:29.950
Things like that can be the difference in the expression.

445
00:27:30.829 --> 00:27:35.910
For almost any other people in the world, uh, You

446
00:27:35.950 --> 00:27:39.589
may be having the same planetary aspect, but what house

447
00:27:39.670 --> 00:27:45.009
it's happening in for you, culture, conditioning, these things will

448
00:27:45.069 --> 00:27:49.599
also change how you experience the dynamic. But it won't

449
00:27:49.660 --> 00:27:53.740
necessarily be 100% different because the planets are still just

450
00:27:54.359 --> 00:27:57.339
asking the same questions. Does that make sense?

451
00:27:57.359 --> 00:27:59.579
Yeah.

452
00:27:59.660 --> 00:27:59.859
Okay.

453
00:28:03.650 --> 00:28:11.450
I guess I'm just going to understand. process well i'm

454
00:28:11.470 --> 00:28:13.670
like saying it's actually something i've never heard of so

455
00:28:13.710 --> 00:28:16.369
i'm so i'm like that you know that question does.

456
00:28:16.250 --> 00:28:18.990
It yeah yeah.

457
00:28:20.750 --> 00:28:25.799

All right. We are at our stormy grace. Now, something

468
00:29:23.700 --> 00:29:26.279
that I found fascinating about the title of the book

469
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:31.920
is A Comparative Guide to Natal and Transit Astrology. What

470
00:29:31.940 --> 00:29:32.180
is that?

471
00:29:33.619 --> 00:29:34.180
So, yeah.

472
00:29:35.329 --> 00:29:38.430
So your natal astrology is just what's going on in

473
00:29:38.470 --> 00:29:40.299
your natal chart at the time that you were born

474
00:29:40.319 --> 00:29:42.539
when you get your birth chart that's your natal chart

475
00:29:42.579 --> 00:29:46.180
so we want to see what is the conversation being

476
00:29:46.279 --> 00:29:50.529
had in that chart between the planets um at the

477
00:29:50.569 --> 00:29:53.309
time that you were born and so those planets are

478
00:29:53.349 --> 00:29:55.329
never going to move they're not going to move on

479
00:29:55.390 --> 00:29:57.549
that's it this is the snapshot so we're going to

480
00:29:57.609 --> 00:30:00.299
look at what chords and notes they're playing and And

481
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:03.259
what is the baseline of the conversation to kind of

482
00:30:03.579 --> 00:30:06.400
sort out what it is you're doing here or how

483
00:30:06.460 --> 00:30:11.119
you can develop. But we'll have transiting planets. Like, you know,

484
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:14.599
we were born and the sky did not stop, which

485
00:30:14.660 --> 00:30:19.319
is a surprise to some. But those planets kept moving on.

486
00:30:19.339 --> 00:30:22.420
And the planets that are in current motion and cycle,

487
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:26.480
these are called our transiting planets. And transiting planets, as

488
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:29.240
they're moving around and they're going on and they're wherever

489
00:30:29.299 --> 00:30:32.799
they are in their orbit, and they make contact with

490
00:30:33.019 --> 00:30:36.839
something in your chart, one of your natal planets or

491
00:30:36.900 --> 00:30:40.880
your natal angles or something like this, this is what

492
00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:45.009
we call a transit. And that has a different set

493
00:30:45.049 --> 00:30:52.069
of aspects as well. Now, the aspects themselves in baseline, square, opposition, conjunction,

494
00:30:52.109 --> 00:30:55.609
they all mean the same things. But when you are

495
00:30:55.650 --> 00:30:58.230
looking at your natal chart, this is what it is.

496
00:30:58.250 --> 00:31:00.950
This is the story. You're likely going to hear these

497
00:31:01.029 --> 00:31:03.950
songs and these themes over and over and over again

498
00:31:03.970 --> 00:31:11.079
in your life. But a transiting planet will bring events, actions, people,

499
00:31:12.039 --> 00:31:16.940
circumstances into your life under a particular aspect. And then

500
00:31:17.000 --> 00:31:21.619
they move on. They move on when they're done. So

501
00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:25.299
you won't play that tune forever. You know, Jupiter comes

502
00:31:25.460 --> 00:31:31.789
to each sign once every 12 years. So if transiting

503
00:31:31.869 --> 00:31:34.410
Jupiter is in Leo right now and it's having a

504
00:31:34.450 --> 00:31:38.450
conversation with your son that is in Leo, first of all,

505
00:31:38.819 --> 00:31:41.819
it'll do it for just a few weeks and then

506
00:31:41.880 --> 00:31:44.980
it's going to start to move on. And by the

507
00:31:45.019 --> 00:31:46.680
end of the year, it's going to be gone and

508
00:31:46.839 --> 00:31:50.599
into Virgo. So you're done with that storyline. The other

509
00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:54.759
reason it's cool to understand this is you can pattern track.

510
00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:58.559
We can pattern track our own lives and stories. So

511
00:31:58.619 --> 00:32:02.650
with my Jupiter and Leo example, Jupiter is in Leo51200:32:02.690 --> 00:32:06.490



right now. But if we back up 12 years ago51300:32:07.109 --> 00:32:10.529



and I say, okay, Justin, Jupiter was in the same51400:32:10.569 --> 00:32:12.779



place 12 years ago that it is now. Tell me51500:32:12.839 --> 00:32:14.740



about what was happening. What was going on for you?51600:32:14.759 --> 00:32:18.359



Because you had the same theme. You've already been here.51700:32:19.039 --> 00:32:21.160



You've already been here. What are you doing? And now51800:32:21.200 --> 00:32:23.940



we can apply a bit more wisdom to it to51900:32:23.980 --> 00:32:28.009



help you use that transiting time a bit better and52000:32:28.069 --> 00:32:30.829



see what other aspects are also being made to other52100:32:30.930 --> 00:32:34.289



transiting planets in the sky that can help or hinder52200:32:34.329 --> 00:32:34.970



the vibration.52300:32:38.349 --> 00:32:41.720



How long can the effects of a transit last?52400:32:44.440 --> 00:32:46.650



It depends on the speed of the planet. right? So52500:32:46.839 --> 00:32:51.099



if it is a transit by the moon, it's going52600:32:51.140 --> 00:32:54.099



to last a few hours because the moon moves very quickly.52700:32:54.559 --> 00:32:58.079



It gets through signs every two and a half days.52800:32:58.200 --> 00:33:02.529



It's moved on, okay? But if you're having a Pluto52900:33:02.650 --> 00:33:05.390



transit to something in your chart, Pluto is going to53000:33:05.430 --> 00:33:08.609



be in place for months and months and months. And realistically,53100:33:08.650 --> 00:33:11.269



it would be not a stretch to say you're going53200:33:11.289 --> 00:33:15.569



to absolutely spend a year or more working on that53300:33:15.670 --> 00:33:21.099



particular energy because Pluto moves so incredibly slow. Now, if53400:33:21.160 --> 00:33:24.099



it's a Mercury transit, maybe three weeks. You're going to53500:33:24.140 --> 00:33:26.000



get maybe three weeks out of it. If it's a53600:33:26.039 --> 00:33:29.599



Sun transit, you're going to get four weeks out of it.53700:33:30.279 --> 00:33:32.700



If you're going to get a Saturn transit, you're going53800:33:32.720 --> 00:33:34.920



to get in total, it'll be in that sign for53900:33:34.960 --> 00:33:36.680



two and a half years, but you're probably going to54000:33:36.700 --> 00:33:39.569



really work on it for a year, maybe six months.54100:33:40.089 --> 00:33:43.450



So it just depends on the actual speed of the54200:33:43.519 --> 00:33:48.359



planet and then where your planets are in your natal54300:33:48.380 --> 00:33:53.019



chart to see how long they're going to have the conversation. Okay.54400:33:54.019 --> 00:33:55.900



But for this moon, it's like speed dating.54500:33:55.920 --> 00:34:06.680



Okay. Now, do faster moving planets tend to affect us54600:34:06.720 --> 00:34:12.860



differently than... something slower like Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, or Pluto?54700:34:14.400 --> 00:34:19.119



So they don't, they all affect us, right? It's the54800:34:19.179 --> 00:34:22.519



speed at which we realize how impacted we have been.54900:34:23.519 --> 00:34:27.530



So the sun, the moon, Venus, Mercury, Mars, these are55000:34:27.570 --> 00:34:31.250



personal planets. So they're closer to us. So as they're55100:34:31.289 --> 00:34:36.369



doing something, we feel those vibrations quite quickly into our charts, right?55200:34:37.440 --> 00:34:42.130



But then when you get to the outer planets, particularly Uranus, Neptune, Pluto,55300:34:42.269 --> 00:34:46.809



they move so slow that they will still have an impact.55400:34:46.949 --> 00:34:50.610



And it's usually a heavier impact because it's essentially got55500:34:50.630 --> 00:34:57.449



to get an entire deeply woven and ingrained set of55600:34:57.690 --> 00:35:03.059



ideas and ideals rearranged for us. So those take longer, right?55700:35:03.590 --> 00:35:05.949



They take longer. And I say that it's the gift55800:35:05.989 --> 00:35:08.550



of the universe because the universe is kind, that we55900:35:08.590 --> 00:35:13.869



get time to work on them, you know, to tell you, hey, listen,56000:35:13.889 --> 00:35:18.530



your entire identity needs to be burned to the ground56100:35:18.730 --> 00:35:24.250



as Pluto is in a conjunction with your son. Because56200:35:24.269 --> 00:35:27.469



the version of you that you're walking with right now56300:35:27.659 --> 00:35:31.199



can't carry the next greatness that you're going on to56400:35:31.300 --> 00:35:34.590



or the next storyline. If you had to do that56500:35:34.710 --> 00:35:40.429



all in three weeks, nobody would be still standing. I56600:35:40.449 --> 00:35:43.090



think we'd all just be dead, honestly, because it's such56700:35:43.230 --> 00:35:47.010



a tough internal thing to do this kind of shedding56800:35:47.030 --> 00:35:50.050



that the outer planets ask us for. The other reason56900:35:50.110 --> 00:35:53.949



it does this is because those are our generational and57000:35:54.030 --> 00:35:57.429



societal planets. So they're also, as they are moving and57100:35:57.469 --> 00:36:01.070



bringing a transit in, they don't need to just change us.57200:36:01.690 --> 00:36:04.530



they've got to change our fellow man with us as well.57300:36:04.590 --> 00:36:09.409



And we've all got to get busy getting there together. Right?57400:36:09.489 --> 00:36:15.929



So that's why it's particularly interesting to understand, um, how57500:36:16.090 --> 00:36:20.099



and how impactful or quickly you see the impact of57600:36:20.119 --> 00:36:21.980



the planets as they're moving around like this.57700:36:25.780 --> 00:36:31.239



Let me ask you this. Um, A lot of people57800:36:31.360 --> 00:36:35.409



will base their life off of their astrological chart or57900:36:35.570 --> 00:36:39.550



even their zodiac sign. How much does free will have58000:36:39.610 --> 00:36:45.730



to do with that? Or is the astrological chart and58100:36:45.750 --> 00:36:49.829



the zodiac sign really how you know how your life's58200:36:49.849 --> 00:36:50.349



going to go?58300:36:51.389 --> 00:36:53.889



I think that people come from this in two different camps,58400:36:54.030 --> 00:36:56.030



for sure. There are the ones that are like, this58500:36:56.150 --> 00:36:58.860



is it. You get what you get. Don't throw a fit.58600:36:59.420 --> 00:37:04.840



Best wishes. And that's fine if that is what works.58700:37:05.880 --> 00:37:08.280



I tend to think that it is a really good58800:37:08.340 --> 00:37:13.039



roadmap and free will is everywhere, right? Free will is left, right,58900:37:13.139 --> 00:37:15.639



and center. If you don't want to do something, don't59000:37:15.679 --> 00:37:19.440



do it. If you want to try to become a59100:37:19.480 --> 00:37:23.559



different person, go for it. Go down that road. Where59200:37:23.599 --> 00:37:27.159



I think that the chart is incredibly useful is to59300:37:27.300 --> 00:37:31.610



watch someone in their natural terrain and have a pretty59400:37:31.670 --> 00:37:36.590



good explanation for why or how they're doing what they're doing, right?59500:37:37.190 --> 00:37:41.750



But is there free will? A ton. However, I've not59600:37:41.889 --> 00:37:45.730



seen yet that I look at someone's chart and I59700:37:45.769 --> 00:37:47.590



look at what the nodes are doing and these are59800:37:47.610 --> 00:37:50.730



their destiny points. In evolutionary astrology, we're gonna look at59900:37:50.769 --> 00:37:52.590



what's the story you came from and what are you60000:37:52.610 --> 00:37:55.289



trying to move towards? This would be a lifetime's worth60100:37:55.349 --> 00:38:00.130



of work, right? I've not seen anybody go after anything60200:38:00.710 --> 00:38:04.469



other than their nodes. So I'm like, there's got to be,60300:38:04.550 --> 00:38:07.480



you know, I could still be mystified by it myself,60400:38:07.639 --> 00:38:11.219



even as a practitioner seeing this every day, like all day,60500:38:12.440 --> 00:38:15.639



to go, well, where's your free will? You know, instead60600:38:15.780 --> 00:38:19.690



of building businesses because you have a south node in Capricorn,60700:38:19.730 --> 00:38:22.869



why don't you just go, you know, be a teacher60800:38:23.190 --> 00:38:26.650



or something like this, like the Sagittarian vibration? And they60900:38:26.710 --> 00:38:31.219



just go towards it. And tend to struggle at the61000:38:31.280 --> 00:38:33.739



North Node side to learn those lessons of it's not61100:38:33.780 --> 00:38:37.719



just what are you doing, but how are you feeling, right?61200:38:38.300 --> 00:38:42.639



So it's interesting to watch. I'm going to continue to61300:38:42.679 --> 00:38:45.860



probably forever be watching this because I do know that61400:38:45.900 --> 00:38:47.820



there's free will. You can make your choices. You can61500:38:47.860 --> 00:38:50.400



make your decisions. The universe, I believe, would like you61600:38:50.440 --> 00:38:53.579



to do so. But also, if the chart's not pretty accurate,61700:38:53.659 --> 00:38:55.820



why are you just doing all the chart things anyways?61800:38:57.659 --> 00:38:57.760



Right.61900:38:59.409 --> 00:39:05.360



So somewhere in there is where I land. But I62000:39:05.480 --> 00:39:11.159



also do a lot of consulting, live one-on-one consulting with people,62100:39:12.320 --> 00:39:16.849



you know. And so I have gotten to see, first62200:39:16.869 --> 00:39:19.510



of all, I've gotten to see it play out that62300:39:19.530 --> 00:39:22.690



they just seem to live the chart. But I've also62400:39:22.730 --> 00:39:27.489



seen to the dark side of that. where people will62500:39:27.530 --> 00:39:32.030



put themselves in this box. where it's like, oh, my62600:39:32.110 --> 00:39:37.079



chart says that I'm, you know, a Pisces. I'm going62700:39:37.139 --> 00:39:40.500



to spend my life being a drug addict. I'm like, okay, listen,62800:39:40.780 --> 00:39:44.900



that's too much. That is not what That means at62900:39:45.039 --> 00:39:47.460



all being a Pisces is not meaning you're going to63000:39:47.480 --> 00:39:50.679



be synonymous with being a drug addict, right? Like go63100:39:50.699 --> 00:39:53.480



to any meeting, there's a little bit of all Zodiacs63200:39:53.539 --> 00:39:58.429



in there. But where does it create a space where63300:39:59.050 --> 00:40:02.389



like a person gets themselves locked into the story of63400:40:02.550 --> 00:40:04.530



this is who I am, this is all I am,63500:40:04.590 --> 00:40:06.590



this is all I have to offer on all I'll63600:40:06.630 --> 00:40:09.489



ever be? I've definitely seen the dark side of that63700:40:09.869 --> 00:40:13.250



as well. Is that the fault of astrology or is63800:40:13.289 --> 00:40:16.489



this something that is birthed in the individual for their work?63900:40:17.190 --> 00:40:19.550



Who can say? But I would say it's probably in64000:40:19.570 --> 00:40:19.889



the chart.64100:40:21.190 --> 00:40:24.969



Okay. Now, I mean, there's always going to be those64200:40:25.210 --> 00:40:29.409



skeptics out there about anything in the paranormal or anything64300:40:29.469 --> 00:40:35.360



that has to do with predicting the future. One criticism64400:40:35.400 --> 00:40:39.699



of astrology is that descriptions can sometimes be broad enough64500:40:39.760 --> 00:40:43.800



that almost everyone Anyone can identify with them. How do64600:40:43.840 --> 00:40:45.760



you respond to that question?64700:40:46.780 --> 00:40:51.980



I say I agree with you 110%. That is why64800:40:52.000 --> 00:40:55.000



I think it is also really important that if you64900:40:55.099 --> 00:40:58.420



want to see the truth of what astrology has to offer,65000:40:58.860 --> 00:41:04.380



to give it a fair judgment, right? Come to the practice,65100:41:04.539 --> 00:41:07.769



the full practice of astrology. See what it is. And65200:41:07.929 --> 00:41:11.650



I love all astrologers. I will champion for astrologers left, right,65300:41:11.690 --> 00:41:15.550



and center. But we have sun sign astrologers where this65400:41:15.610 --> 00:41:17.690



is all they talk about is the sun being in65500:41:17.829 --> 00:41:21.170



particular signs and one of those characteristics. And they are65600:41:21.269 --> 00:41:24.840



speaking the language of astrology. So they have my full support.65700:41:25.110 --> 00:41:28.039



But if you want to know about your life and65800:41:28.059 --> 00:41:33.900



your unfoldings more deeply, this is where We need aspects.65900:41:33.980 --> 00:41:36.500



This is where we need secondary productions, and this is66000:41:36.539 --> 00:41:39.199



where we need training and skill to be able to66100:41:39.340 --> 00:41:43.070



actually walk you through it. If you come and you66200:41:43.150 --> 00:41:46.269



sit down with someone and you get the full experience66300:41:46.929 --> 00:41:50.190



of what astrology can really offer, and then you have66400:41:50.269 --> 00:41:52.849



the judgment against it that the words are too broad,66500:41:52.889 --> 00:41:56.940



that could have meant anything, then I'll be totally like66600:41:57.179 --> 00:41:58.840



on your side. I'll be like, yeah, okay, cool. That's66700:41:58.880 --> 00:42:02.320



not going to work for you. That's very rare. What66800:42:02.500 --> 00:42:05.519



I see is that people will go to unskilled or66900:42:05.679 --> 00:42:09.139



untrained astrologers, and then they do get a session of67000:42:09.199 --> 00:42:13.679



a bunch of broad words, and that doesn't do anything.67100:42:13.920 --> 00:42:19.449



You know, astrology is a technical skill. It's not an67200:42:19.550 --> 00:42:23.489



intuitive skill. It's a technical skill. You may be intuitive67300:42:23.550 --> 00:42:25.769



and bring that to the table, but if you go67400:42:25.849 --> 00:42:29.909



to see someone who is identifying as an astrologer, and67500:42:29.949 --> 00:42:32.369



they can't prove the timing or they can't prove the67600:42:32.449 --> 00:42:36.130



cycle or they can't show you the three technical skills67700:42:36.170 --> 00:42:39.769



they're using to show you why they came to that conclusion,67800:42:40.230 --> 00:42:43.510



you will stay skeptical. You just will because there's nothing67900:42:43.570 --> 00:42:47.519



to be but skeptical then. But commence it with someone68000:42:47.579 --> 00:42:52.940



who's really pulling the chart apart and then also engaging68100:42:52.980 --> 00:42:55.820



you in the conversation of your journey of your life,68200:42:56.239 --> 00:43:00.679



looking into timing forward and back. And I think you'll go, okay,68300:43:01.719 --> 00:43:06.829



I'm slightly less skeptical. Or maybe you won't, you know?68400:43:06.849 --> 00:43:10.610



Well, I mean, people say the same thing about, you know,68500:43:10.650 --> 00:43:15.969



tarot readings and stuff too. And that it's the reader's68600:43:16.010 --> 00:43:20.039



interpretation of what they're seeing. Is that the same for68700:43:20.079 --> 00:43:26.599



astrology where it's the reader? astrologist interpreting what everything means68800:43:26.679 --> 00:43:31.079



or is there like exact meaning in everything that comes68900:43:31.139 --> 00:43:33.900



to your astrological chart? It's a mix.69000:43:34.019 --> 00:43:37.250



It's truly a mix. I mean, in a more exact way,69100:43:37.349 --> 00:43:41.030



depending on which branch of astrology you are practicing, because69200:43:41.090 --> 00:43:44.190



astrology has many different branches. I like to relate it69300:43:44.250 --> 00:43:47.449



to medicine. Like we're all doctors. Everybody knows CPR and69400:43:47.469 --> 00:43:50.360



we know the body, but like what we specialize in69500:43:50.760 --> 00:43:59.530



is different, right? So depending on the branch that you're using,69600:44:00.690 --> 00:44:06.010



you may come to the expression of a particular planet69700:44:06.210 --> 00:44:09.750



in a different way, but we all are going to go, okay,69800:44:09.769 --> 00:44:12.710



this is a Mars transit. We're going to look for action.69900:44:12.730 --> 00:44:14.210



We're going to look for motion. We're going to look70000:44:14.250 --> 00:44:17.610



for these things, right? And in this way is where70100:44:17.639 --> 00:44:23.070



it becomes trackable and technical. Because in some way, we70200:44:23.190 --> 00:44:28.789



all know what's going on in particular vibrations or what's70300:44:28.829 --> 00:44:33.329



happening when someone is like, you know, in a particular70400:44:33.469 --> 00:44:36.710



season of life, which those we also track with the70500:44:36.769 --> 00:44:42.300



planets as well. Now, I cannot speak to numerology and70600:44:42.340 --> 00:44:44.840



to tarot because I don't practice either of them and70700:44:45.119 --> 00:44:52.119



I never have. So whether or not they have a technical... basis,70800:44:53.539 --> 00:44:55.960



compared to astrology, I don't really have the answer for that.70900:44:56.019 --> 00:45:02.400



I'd be interested to know. But in what I've observed,71000:45:02.840 --> 00:45:06.099



it seems a bit more intuitive. But that may not be,71100:45:06.559 --> 00:45:09.309



you know, accurate at all. But in astrology, yeah, for sure.71200:45:10.150 --> 00:45:12.050



You say the sun, you say Mars, you say Pluto,71300:45:12.070 --> 00:45:15.010



you say there's a square. A bunch of astrologers are71400:45:15.030 --> 00:45:18.949



going to go, oh, here's in the vicinity of what71500:45:18.969 --> 00:45:19.690



we're talking about.71600:45:21.340 --> 00:45:23.250



I mean, it's kind of the same for tarot. I mean,71700:45:24.809 --> 00:45:28.849



I've studied tarot for many, many years, and it really71800:45:28.889 --> 00:45:35.630



has to do with the overall picture that the tarot71900:45:35.670 --> 00:45:43.320



reading is showing you. You know, each card has an72000:45:43.380 --> 00:45:48.920



explanation of what it represents. It is up to the72100:45:49.099 --> 00:45:53.019



tarot reader to kind of put the entire story together.72200:45:53.539 --> 00:45:57.000



So it very much seems like astrology and tarot can72300:45:57.039 --> 00:46:01.030



be very similar in that regard. You're looking at the72400:46:01.090 --> 00:46:06.190



full aspect, not just one specific piece of the puzzle.72500:46:08.329 --> 00:46:11.320



At times. And then other times... you know, people will72600:46:11.340 --> 00:46:13.079



come to us and they're like, I really need to72700:46:13.139 --> 00:46:16.420



know about my health. And so we're going very specifically72800:46:16.460 --> 00:46:19.900



into the chart, but I think tarot does this as well, right?72900:46:19.940 --> 00:46:22.090



If somebody comes and they have a specific question.73000:46:22.179 --> 00:46:23.289



Okay.73100:46:24.849 --> 00:46:26.769



So we'll all stay at the metaphysical fair.73200:46:32.130 --> 00:46:34.909



And I mean, that's where you find most of the stuff, uh,73300:46:34.989 --> 00:46:40.739



you know, paranormal convention, metaphysical fair, um, metaphysical shops, stuff73400:46:40.760 --> 00:46:46.880



like that. And I've always loved a good tarot reading,73500:46:47.079 --> 00:46:50.280



or I would love to have my astrological chart done73600:46:50.300 --> 00:46:55.429



because I've never had it done. Astrologer.73700:46:56.190 --> 00:46:56.449



Okay.73800:46:57.010 --> 00:47:08.579



I do too, now. Now, has there ever been... a73900:47:08.679 --> 00:47:11.780



point where you've encountered something in a chart that, that74000:47:11.820 --> 00:47:16.780



made you stop and go, okay, that's pretty remarkable or74100:47:16.820 --> 00:47:19.949



that's fascinating or wow, that's kind of weird.74200:47:22.630 --> 00:47:25.750



Yes. I've had a couple experiences with that as a74300:47:25.750 --> 00:47:28.909



matter of fact, and one of them was less about,74400:47:30.010 --> 00:47:34.079



it was about the chart, but it was also about74500:47:34.599 --> 00:47:36.960



like kind of an imprint I got when reading the chart,74600:47:37.019 --> 00:47:40.010



which doesn't, Happened to me often. I'm able to keep74700:47:40.050 --> 00:47:42.949



a fair amount of distance from, you know, whatever chart74800:47:42.969 --> 00:47:44.829



that it is that I'm reading and just look at74900:47:44.869 --> 00:47:47.130



what the chart is trying to say. But it was75000:47:47.190 --> 00:47:50.670



so much so that I needed to put the chart75100:47:50.730 --> 00:47:54.369



down and actually ask the client if I could share75200:47:54.590 --> 00:47:58.090



their chart with my teacher. And I took the chart75300:47:58.110 --> 00:48:00.840



to my teacher and I'm like, here's my three technical75400:48:00.880 --> 00:48:04.099



things that I'm seeing. to be able to prove what75500:48:04.119 --> 00:48:06.179



it is that I'm saying. And here's what's coming through75600:48:06.280 --> 00:48:09.159



for me. As I look at this, I would love75700:48:09.420 --> 00:48:12.400



your feedback. You know, she's got more years in the75800:48:12.460 --> 00:48:15.940



game than me, all of these kinds of things. And75900:48:16.860 --> 00:48:20.179



in that way, it was a really nice like kind of, okay, yep,76000:48:20.610 --> 00:48:23.829



we see exactly where you're coming from. Here's another way76100:48:23.909 --> 00:48:26.250



to look at that. So it was a nice redirect76200:48:26.369 --> 00:48:28.409



for me, but it was shocking. You know, this was76300:48:28.469 --> 00:48:30.769



a person who had just had a baby and in76400:48:30.860 --> 00:48:34.960



the chart it was showing, um, uh, something really strong76500:48:35.119 --> 00:48:39.389



happening with one of the other parents and strong and sudden.76600:48:39.610 --> 00:48:43.130



And so it was a bit alarming as well, you know,76700:48:43.190 --> 00:48:46.630



because the people had called and they gave me their, um,76800:48:47.530 --> 00:48:49.369



baby's birth time. I think the baby had only been76900:48:49.429 --> 00:48:52.250



born for like four hours or something like that.77000:48:52.710 --> 00:48:53.030



Yeah.77100:48:53.250 --> 00:48:54.730



So it was like, you know what I mean? So77200:48:54.750 --> 00:48:56.829



it was like, okay, that's really cool because in that77300:48:56.889 --> 00:48:59.429



way we get to welcome little travelers to the world77400:48:59.489 --> 00:49:02.239



and kind of see them from the beginning and through77500:49:02.260 --> 00:49:06.059



the journey. But it was also quite shocking. Now I've seen, um,77600:49:06.940 --> 00:49:11.000



other things in the chart where I do go, that's interesting.77700:49:12.019 --> 00:49:17.550



Mostly what it is is that it'll be like, in77800:49:17.590 --> 00:49:22.329



a month. I'll have the same pattern or configuration of77900:49:22.389 --> 00:49:25.369



people who I'm working with or who are coming in78000:49:25.530 --> 00:49:28.309



or have questions about something in their chart. And this78100:49:28.469 --> 00:49:31.989



always fascinates me. It just always fascinates me because it's78200:49:32.010 --> 00:49:37.639



like clearly this planetary combination or vibration is really getting78300:49:37.679 --> 00:49:40.659



people's attention. You know, and they'll be born at different78400:49:40.699 --> 00:49:43.019



times of the year. They don't know each other, all78500:49:43.039 --> 00:49:46.239



of these things. And then it's like, whoop, okay. You know,78600:49:46.360 --> 00:49:49.619



Saturn and Neptune want to be heard right now. So78700:49:49.639 --> 00:49:53.719



they're making themselves really very known. Other than that, in78800:49:53.960 --> 00:49:57.420



charts in general, I think all charts are good charts.78900:49:57.739 --> 00:50:00.699



And I've never seen anything that just stopped me in79000:50:00.760 --> 00:50:03.489



my tracks to be like, wow, this is an extra,79100:50:03.969 --> 00:50:08.190



extra special chart. Extra marshmallows for you.79200:50:13.110 --> 00:50:17.929



Now, what's one thing that you wish everyone understood about79300:50:18.050 --> 00:50:18.710



their birth chart?79400:50:23.079 --> 00:50:26.019



One, that they have it, that they have it. There's help.79500:50:26.219 --> 00:50:29.239



You know what I mean? Like I have learned I'm79600:50:29.239 --> 00:50:33.480



44 now, which I love, by the way. And there's79700:50:33.519 --> 00:50:37.449



a fair amount of like breathing that goes on in79800:50:37.469 --> 00:50:42.489



the human experience. Just breathing. re-rallying the troops, whether they79900:50:42.530 --> 00:50:46.869



be physical, mental, spiritual, financial, whatever. There's a lot of80000:50:46.969 --> 00:50:52.590



breathing that happens. And in those moments, I wish people80100:50:52.789 --> 00:50:56.239



to know that they have a chart that it's like,80200:50:56.519 --> 00:51:01.519



hold on, you can look. Astrology does much of what80300:51:01.639 --> 00:51:05.820



many other disciplines do. We just typically do it faster80400:51:06.820 --> 00:51:09.559



because we're going to look at the chart and go, ah,80500:51:09.599 --> 00:51:13.840



you've got a lot of pressure being put on your80600:51:13.900 --> 00:51:19.130



moon right now by this other planet. Tell me about that.80700:51:19.909 --> 00:51:25.150



Tell me your experience, right? And oftentimes we're speaking our80800:51:25.210 --> 00:51:28.289



charts anyways, even if you never knew you had a chart.80900:51:29.130 --> 00:51:32.260



To a trained astrologer, if you're coming around and you're saying,81000:51:32.639 --> 00:51:34.699



I feel like I'm just losing all my words today.81100:51:34.719 --> 00:51:37.550



I'm so frustrated. I feel like I just, Can't remember81200:51:37.570 --> 00:51:39.469



what I'm saying. Can't remember where I'm going. Or like81300:51:39.530 --> 00:51:42.300



the thought comes and it floats right off. An astrologer81400:51:42.320 --> 00:51:44.280



is going to go, well, let's see what Neptune's doing81500:51:44.320 --> 00:51:48.239



in your chart. And likely Neptune is somewhere in a81600:51:48.300 --> 00:51:51.780



conversation to your Mercury. So you didn't even know what81700:51:51.820 --> 00:51:54.099



was there, but we would. So this is what I81800:51:54.119 --> 00:51:55.550



want people to know is that you have a little81900:51:55.610 --> 00:51:59.130



map to help you the very best that it can.82000:51:59.670 --> 00:52:01.510



And even if you never get to the point where82100:52:01.530 --> 00:52:04.289



you are reading that map with the level of proficiency82200:52:04.349 --> 00:52:07.489



and fluency that I am reading that at, If you82300:52:07.530 --> 00:52:09.530



can look at your own chart and say, I have82400:52:09.590 --> 00:52:13.130



a moon that is in Libra. What does that mean82500:52:13.190 --> 00:52:16.409



for me? And how do I help fill my security82600:52:16.429 --> 00:52:19.239



and nurturing cup? What are the things that I can82700:52:19.300 --> 00:52:22.820



take on? You know, or my daughter has a moon82800:52:22.880 --> 00:52:27.159



in Leo. How can I support that? This is the thing.82900:52:27.380 --> 00:52:30.519



We have a helping tool. They say, you know, kids83000:52:30.539 --> 00:52:33.619



are not born with instruction manuals. And I'm like, incorrect.83100:52:34.880 --> 00:52:43.030



Literal incorrect. You know, if you captured that time and date,83200:52:43.289 --> 00:52:47.489



we can do a lot with that. And it turns83300:52:47.570 --> 00:52:52.309



out adults keep their instruction manuals as we go along.83400:52:52.349 --> 00:52:54.190



So I just want people to know that the journey83500:52:54.230 --> 00:52:57.449



can be really full and really fun and easier. And83600:52:57.489 --> 00:53:00.320



you can know some of the timing of challenge. You know,83700:53:00.440 --> 00:53:03.099



help yourself have a leg up while we're doing this83800:53:03.159 --> 00:53:03.780



wild thing.83900:53:06.800 --> 00:53:08.320



Now, I'm going to put you on the spot here.84000:53:09.849 --> 00:53:14.409



after everything you've experienced and studied, what do you believe84100:53:14.449 --> 00:53:15.670



happens when we die?84200:53:19.000 --> 00:53:21.420



I think a lot of things happen when we die.84300:53:21.440 --> 00:53:24.880



I think it depends on, you know, what you believe84400:53:24.920 --> 00:53:28.380



happens when you die. I'm an evolutionary astrologer, so my84500:53:28.500 --> 00:53:36.789



predisposition is to come to the table in a reincarnationist attitude,84600:53:37.170 --> 00:53:40.349



something like this. So I tend to think we get84700:53:40.389 --> 00:53:44.969



the opportunity or are offered the opportunity at the reincarnation84800:53:45.010 --> 00:53:47.150



booth to say, do we want to come back in?84900:53:48.050 --> 00:53:49.489



Do we not want to come back in? Do we85000:53:49.510 --> 00:53:52.269



learn it? Do we still need time to process when85100:53:52.510 --> 00:53:55.159



we leave? Do we go back and hang out in85200:53:55.179 --> 00:53:58.239



the great source? You know, I think there are a85300:53:58.280 --> 00:54:01.679



lot of things that happen when we die. And it85400:54:01.699 --> 00:54:06.039



will just depend on what you believe in, where you're…85500:54:06.909 --> 00:54:12.929



where your predispositions for life and death lie. But ultimately,85600:54:12.949 --> 00:54:15.570



I think we go back to the source and we85700:54:15.590 --> 00:54:19.309



get an opportunity to decide what to do next.85800:54:23.219 --> 00:54:25.519



Well, it is about that time to let you go.85900:54:25.699 --> 00:54:27.219



So I wanted to give you the chance to tell86000:54:27.280 --> 00:54:29.860



everybody where they can find you, find your work. The86100:54:29.880 --> 00:54:30.480



mic's all yours.86200:54:31.639 --> 00:54:34.260



Yeah, absolutely. You can come and visit me at stormygrace.com.86300:54:34.909 --> 00:54:37.460
