1 00:00:03,319 --> 00:00:06,639 Speaker 1: Everyone. We haven't caught up in a while. I have 2 00:00:06,719 --> 00:00:08,279 been kind of a hermit for the first part of 3 00:00:08,279 --> 00:00:10,240 this year. Also, if you're listening to this episode on 4 00:00:10,279 --> 00:00:12,400 the podcast, you can head over to YouTube if you 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:16,039 want to have a more visual experience of the transits 6 00:00:16,039 --> 00:00:18,199 and the astrology that I'm about to talk about. There's 7 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,079 going to be diagrams that pop up as I talk 8 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,800 in case you want to look at the actual astrology 9 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,519 I'm describing. But anyways, I really want to get more 10 00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:32,159 into doing these casual astrology chat type episodes because I 11 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,840 want a place where I can be a bit more 12 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:38,039 creative and vulnerable and talk about how astrology is showing 13 00:00:38,119 --> 00:00:40,359 up in my life, how it's showing up in the 14 00:00:40,399 --> 00:00:44,399 lives of people I know or people I public figures 15 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:49,479 I just observe. And also maybe you can find certain 16 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,719 parts of what I talk about relatable to your own experiences. 17 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,960 So what we're going to talk about today is the 18 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,679 astrology of an identity shift, because this is something that 19 00:01:00,759 --> 00:01:04,719 comes along I would say every few years in your chart, 20 00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:10,280 is this desire to make bigger changes in your life 21 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,400 or come into a new version of yourself, not necessarily 22 00:01:14,439 --> 00:01:16,799 like you're becoming a whole new person, but more like 23 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,840 you're tapping into sides of your identity that we're just 24 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,560 lying dormant, or interest you may have forgotten about that 25 00:01:24,599 --> 00:01:27,519 you love doing as a child, or just feeling like 26 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,519 there's some internal element of yourself that's going through a 27 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,439 bigger shift. And we'll get into the astrology of like 28 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,120 what that looks like and how to navigate those transits. 29 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,120 But I really wanted to cover this topic first because 30 00:01:44,519 --> 00:01:48,040 it's something I've personally been experiencing over the last several 31 00:01:48,079 --> 00:01:52,760 months with that huge Mars retrograde, and this particular past 32 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,640 Mars retrograde was so intense for my chart. It started 33 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,120 in my first house sign of my rising obviously, and 34 00:02:01,159 --> 00:02:05,959 then it opposed exactly my Aquarius son before moving back 35 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,560 into Cancer my twelfth house where my natal Mars is. 36 00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:13,840 So not only does like Mars retrograde a difficult time 37 00:02:13,879 --> 00:02:17,560 in general, but when it impacts and this is this 38 00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:20,479 can go for any retrograde, not just Mars retrograde, but 39 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:25,120 when a retrograde impacts chart placements directly, like to the 40 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,439 degree or you have like a very important natal placement 41 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,280 in the same sign and house where that retrograde is happening, 42 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,039 that retrograde automatically becomes a bigger deal, and that may 43 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,080 be a time period where you do notice a lot 44 00:02:40,159 --> 00:02:42,240 of shifts are happening in your life, but there could 45 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,400 be also a lot of frustration and this period of 46 00:02:46,479 --> 00:02:50,599 like I'm really trying to avoid the term identity crisis, 47 00:02:50,879 --> 00:02:55,199 but a shift in identity because you're just feeling like 48 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,159 something needs to change in your life but you don't 49 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,960 know what. So, yeah, that's all I was feeling a 50 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,680 lot of last year, and honestly, I'm still kind of 51 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,319 feeling that way, but I'm coming out of it a 52 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,879 bit more now that Mars Retrograd's over and it's back 53 00:03:07,879 --> 00:03:10,800 in my first house. There's less this feeling of being 54 00:03:10,879 --> 00:03:13,680 burned out. But I did want to talk about, like 55 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:18,360 what I experience with these simultaneous first and twelfth house 56 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,960 activations in my chart, or how those two houses are 57 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,599 tied in together, because I find that the twelfth house 58 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,400 is a lot about being alone, maybe not necessarily by choice, 59 00:03:30,439 --> 00:03:33,560 but kind of feeling like things are falling through in 60 00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:38,120 your life or not happening as you had planned, or 61 00:03:39,039 --> 00:03:41,080 you're just not having as many people reach out, like 62 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,639 there's this need to kind of like isolate yourself, whether 63 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,680 that's intentionally or not, and do some necessary inner reflection 64 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,360 and a lot of the time like mental health and 65 00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:56,919 examining your emotions and kind of self defeating patterns and 66 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,520 limiting mindsets comes up, and you need that twelve house 67 00:04:00,599 --> 00:04:05,039 focus before a transit. So in this case, Mars for me, 68 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,319 moves back into your first house, or just moves into 69 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,319 your first house in general, like let's say you're a 70 00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:13,080 cancer rising and Jupiter is currently in your twelfth house 71 00:04:13,599 --> 00:04:15,319 that's about to go to your first house. But what 72 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,079 I was saying is the purpose of these twelfth house 73 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,360 transits is to get you to look more like what 74 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,399 do you truly want for yourself and take that necessary 75 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,920 time to slow down and not do as much so 76 00:04:28,959 --> 00:04:33,519 that you can come forward with the first house transits 77 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,000 again and have a better idea of what personal goals 78 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,680 are important to you. How can you be more confident 79 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,199 as a person, How can you lean into your sense 80 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,560 of creativity or what you have to say, and really 81 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,480 coming in more into yourself with first house transits. So 82 00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:52,879 how I felt this play out in my own life 83 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,079 over the past several months. I felt like I was 84 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,759 having an identity crisis both at work and also just 85 00:05:00,759 --> 00:05:03,800 like within myself and what I wanted next. A lot 86 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,560 of it had to do with feeling this pressure that 87 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,480 I had to have a baby. I'm just gonna be 88 00:05:08,519 --> 00:05:10,639 very vulnerable for a second. I feel like after you 89 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,279 get married, there's this huge pressure and honestly, even when 90 00:05:14,319 --> 00:05:16,000 you're just like in your thirties, like I feel like 91 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,680 the older you get, there's this insane pressure to get 92 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,560 pregnant and have a child. And this is something that 93 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:28,319 terrifies me. I want to have a kid eventually, Like 94 00:05:28,399 --> 00:05:31,120 I really really do want children. It's just like a 95 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,279 strong desire I have. But the process of like the 96 00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:38,399 mental process of am I ready to have kids? And 97 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,240 how do you know when you're ready? That's something that's 98 00:05:42,319 --> 00:05:44,879 just like been on my mind a lot over the 99 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:49,360 past year, but very strongly during this Mars retrograde, and 100 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,800 there was a lot of nostalgia for, Oh, if I 101 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,439 have a child in the near future, I have to 102 00:05:56,519 --> 00:06:01,279 leave behind this whole era of my life up until now, 103 00:06:01,399 --> 00:06:05,560 where I've been free to do whatever I want, travel 104 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,120 whenever I want, put work first, and that would entirely 105 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,959 change if I had a kid, So I feel like 106 00:06:12,959 --> 00:06:16,120 people don't talk about this. I just see my husband's 107 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,240 friends they all have children, and I'm like, but how 108 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,920 did you know? How did you know you were ready 109 00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:24,199 to have kids? Like you just make it seem so easy, 110 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,800 and for me, it just doesn't seem easy. It seems 111 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,240 like something that's very scary. So that was an area 112 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,680 of a lot of anxiety for me these past few months. 113 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,319 And then I went to therapy and I stopped putting 114 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,079 pressure on myself to think I needed to have a 115 00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:43,319 kid right now. I know it'll happen when it'll happen. 116 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,319 I actually like know I could see the astrology. But 117 00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:49,959 sometimes that's hard to know because you're like, wait, how 118 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,399 do I like mentally get there to where I'm actually 119 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,199 ready to have a child in that specific year. Sometimes 120 00:06:57,199 --> 00:07:00,000 it's not helpful to know that much because then you're 121 00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:02,879 anticipating it and it may actually play out in a 122 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,519 different way than you expect. That's what I have found 123 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,639 with transits a lot in the past. You can think 124 00:07:08,319 --> 00:07:10,120 that they're going to play out one way, and they 125 00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:12,800 kind of surprise you and take on this different meaning 126 00:07:13,319 --> 00:07:16,480 that you could never have anticipated before. So there's been 127 00:07:16,519 --> 00:07:21,480 this internal identity shift of sorts in accepting like could 128 00:07:21,519 --> 00:07:24,000 I become a parent in the near future? Is that 129 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,439 something I really want? And then also with my business, 130 00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:31,759 I feel like there's been this desire to create more 131 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,240 meaningful content or put more myself into my content in 132 00:07:36,279 --> 00:07:39,079 a way that I wasn't doing before. And I kind 133 00:07:39,079 --> 00:07:42,399 of with social media, I had been feeling like I 134 00:07:42,439 --> 00:07:46,480 was stuck on this hamster wheel of churning out content 135 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:51,199 surrounding every single transit and it just wasn't It wasn't 136 00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:54,120 doing it for me anymore. I felt like I wasn't 137 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,319 connecting to people in a real way. It was just 138 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,240 like posting to get the maximum amount of likes on Instagram. 139 00:08:00,519 --> 00:08:03,120 So had to step back from that and just had 140 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,399 to slow down in my life and focus on mental health, 141 00:08:06,439 --> 00:08:09,199 like going to therapy, started seeing a therapist for the 142 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:15,199 first time since twenty nineteen, and then also started working out, 143 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,240 started taking care of my body more and that helped 144 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:23,800 me a lot mentally. So yeah, it's like from the outside, 145 00:08:23,839 --> 00:08:25,639 it may not appear like a lot of changes have 146 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,439 gone on, but inside, like who I was before this 147 00:08:28,519 --> 00:08:33,000 Mars retrograde felt so much more chaotic and lost than 148 00:08:33,519 --> 00:08:36,879 how I feel now that this retrograde is over and 149 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:41,240 I do feel more certain, and how my life is unfolding, 150 00:08:41,279 --> 00:08:44,159 and like what I want to pursue next, and how 151 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,159 I want to expand my business, like doing more events 152 00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:51,279 or really focusing on long form content and wanting to 153 00:08:51,279 --> 00:08:55,000 put a lot of effort and time into something rather 154 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,879 than putting out content to get attention immediately or get 155 00:08:58,879 --> 00:09:04,159 the maximum amount of engagement. So tying this back to 156 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,840 the twelfth House first house connection, I needed to take 157 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,840 this step back in order to rEFInd myself and maybe 158 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,279 if you have other twelfth or First House transits going on, 159 00:09:15,879 --> 00:09:18,879 you can relate in that way. Okay, so let's get 160 00:09:18,919 --> 00:09:22,759 into the main topic I want to explore today, which 161 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:27,919 is the astrology of identity shifts and locating when those 162 00:09:28,039 --> 00:09:33,120 transits happen to your chart and kind of learning to 163 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,399 lean into that or embrace the topics of whatever planet 164 00:09:37,519 --> 00:09:40,000 is transiting, the themes of that planet or the themes 165 00:09:40,039 --> 00:09:43,080 of the house it's transiting present to you. So I 166 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:48,080 would say the biggest transit for feeling this change in 167 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,679 your sense of self, like you're coming into this new 168 00:09:50,759 --> 00:09:52,960 version of who you're meant to be and maybe a 169 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:58,159 greater purpose would be transits to your ascendant and descendant access. 170 00:09:58,639 --> 00:10:02,559 I say descendant to because I'm mainly thinking about the 171 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,639 transit of the north and south nodes. That's probably the 172 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,480 biggest one in terms of changes to self. When the 173 00:10:09,519 --> 00:10:12,360 north and South nodes move into your first and seventh 174 00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:14,519 house and they spend about a year and a half there, 175 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,559 and they'll be about a year and a half to 176 00:10:16,639 --> 00:10:20,879 two year long period of having eclipses across the first 177 00:10:20,919 --> 00:10:24,120 and seventh houses of your chart. And I've noticed repeatedly 178 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,120 at those times, like looking back in my own personal 179 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,240 past and then also observing the charts of people when 180 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,559 they've gone through major life changes, this is the number 181 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:39,240 one transit that points to bigger life shifts and someone 182 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,720 really coming into like, Okay, this is who I'm meant 183 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,919 to be as a person, and developing that greater confidence 184 00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:50,200 or these more unique interests and not needing to look 185 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,200 so much to other people for direction. And it's also 186 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:59,399 interesting to note the cycle of the north and south 187 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,919 nodes because like you'll have this two year period pretty 188 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,440 much where the north node is in your first house, 189 00:11:07,159 --> 00:11:09,799 let's say, and the south note is in your seventh house, 190 00:11:10,399 --> 00:11:13,080 and then the nodes move backwards, so the north node 191 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,399 will then start moving up the top of your chart, 192 00:11:15,919 --> 00:11:19,000 and it'll go up into the twelfth house for two 193 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,519 for a year and a half, then the eleventh, the tenth. 194 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,840 It peaks pretty much at the tenth when either of 195 00:11:25,879 --> 00:11:28,360 the nodes are up there, and then you get this 196 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:33,879 downhill decline as it moves through the ninth, eighth back 197 00:11:33,919 --> 00:11:37,360 to the seventh first. And I've started to notice how 198 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,840 you can break up your years into these nine ten 199 00:11:40,919 --> 00:11:46,159 year cycles basically a decade where you get the themes 200 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,480 of like every single house in your chart, and they'll 201 00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:52,360 repeat around the same time a decade later. But yeah, 202 00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:55,159 I notice how, like with the first seventh, you're set 203 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,799 the eclipse is taking place there. It kind of sets 204 00:11:57,799 --> 00:12:00,600 you off in this new life direction, new sense of self, 205 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,720 and then as one of the nodes starts to shift 206 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,679 up towards the top of the chart, you build upon 207 00:12:06,759 --> 00:12:09,840 that new sense of self and then it's fully realized 208 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:14,000 publicly when either the north or South note is in 209 00:12:14,039 --> 00:12:17,240 the tenth house, and then it's kind of a come 210 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,759 down and a preparation for that next big identity shift 211 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,240 as the nodes move closer to the first and seventh again, 212 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,840 so it's a slower nine year cycle that builds, and 213 00:12:28,879 --> 00:12:31,600 like half of it is spent building up to something 214 00:12:31,639 --> 00:12:35,919 more public facing and kind of the culmination of what 215 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,240 you've been working on and discovering about yourself, and then 216 00:12:39,279 --> 00:12:41,679 it fades out and it's kind of like the sunset 217 00:12:41,759 --> 00:12:45,639 period until the next big life shift returns. I just 218 00:12:45,639 --> 00:12:50,240 find that so fascinating. And I currently have the nodes 219 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,600 in my eighth and second house, so they're about to 220 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,919 move back to the first and seventh, and that also 221 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,720 kind of ties into what I'm feeling. It's kind of 222 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,120 like the phasing out of one chapter that's been going 223 00:13:00,159 --> 00:13:04,120 on since twenty seventeen twenty eighteen, and now it's like, wait, 224 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,279 what's next? This is I feel like I'm on the 225 00:13:06,279 --> 00:13:09,360 brink of this new change going on in my life, 226 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,519 but I can't fully see what that looks like quite yet. 227 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,200 And I do feel like motherhood and getting that confidence 228 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:21,360 to become a parent will definitely play into the first 229 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,039 seventh thousan eclipses for me. So yeah, if you have 230 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,399 the first seventh thousand eclipses quickly approaching like a Leo 231 00:13:27,519 --> 00:13:31,639 or Aquarius rising wood or you're currently in the midst 232 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,840 of that. That would mean you're a Pisces or a 233 00:13:33,879 --> 00:13:36,159 Virgo rising and the eclipses are now back and forth 234 00:13:36,159 --> 00:13:39,320 across those parts of your chart, or you're an Aries 235 00:13:39,519 --> 00:13:42,279 or lib rising and you've recently come out of that cycle. 236 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,200 It's important to think about how how is a nuisance 237 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,759 of self unfolding, What are new goals I want to 238 00:13:48,799 --> 00:13:53,440 work towards that I'm almost surprised about, and how how 239 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,639 do I want to make more dramatic changes in my life? Okay, 240 00:13:57,639 --> 00:14:00,679 so aside from the eclipses and the north and sideal nodes, 241 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,440 definitely any other major first house transit is really important 242 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,879 to note, especially when a planet moves into moves across 243 00:14:08,919 --> 00:14:13,480 the exact degree of your ascendant. So I'm thinking most 244 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,159 prominently about a planet like Saturn going into the first 245 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,960 that's a two and a half year period where it's 246 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,919 a total restructuring of self and learning to be more 247 00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:29,080 of a mature person and take on additional responsibilities. And 248 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,360 sometimes that can feel very stressful, like you're forced to 249 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,240 grow up in a way that maybe you didn't have 250 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:40,159 to before. And overall, you you're kind of restructuring how 251 00:14:40,159 --> 00:14:42,840 you think about yourself and how you appear to the 252 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,240 rest of the world, and maybe learning to rely more 253 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,240 on your own instincts rather than looking at what other 254 00:14:50,279 --> 00:14:52,720 people expect of you or what is everyone else doing, 255 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,559 just learning to trust yourself more. And then I find 256 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:02,120 with Jupiter transiting the first house that the Jubiterarian topics 257 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:08,879 of education and travel and writing or publishing or spirituality 258 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,039 that's playing a lot into your sense of self and 259 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,679 the activities that you're really enjoying at that time that 260 00:15:16,799 --> 00:15:20,720 are helping you to shape this new sense of identity 261 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,240 for you. And Jupiter is definitely an easier first house 262 00:15:24,279 --> 00:15:26,480 transit than Saturn. I would say it gives this more 263 00:15:26,519 --> 00:15:31,080 optimistic lens to what you want to pursue and like, 264 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,559 I don't know, goals you want to chase after next, 265 00:15:35,279 --> 00:15:39,279 whereas Saturn tends to be a bit more depressing at first, 266 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:44,200 where it could feel very stressful and like there's this 267 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,240 heaviness on you. So with these first house transits, it's 268 00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:53,480 important to note what are the qualities associated with that transit, 269 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,919 that planet transiting that part of your chart, and how 270 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,600 are the qualities of that coming into the way you 271 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,519 view yourself or are wanting to present yourself to the world. 272 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,840 So in the case of Jupiter optimism Saturn, it's like 273 00:16:06,919 --> 00:16:12,440 restructuring maturity. Aging is a big one when Saturn goes 274 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,759 through the first just realizing no, I really need to 275 00:16:14,759 --> 00:16:18,159 take care of myself. My body may not be in 276 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,519 the best shape it's been in, or I need to 277 00:16:21,559 --> 00:16:24,279 be more careful about my health. That's a big Saturn 278 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,799 first House transit theme. And then, like I mentioned already, 279 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,639 eclipses in the first eclipses are just change, so bigger 280 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:37,399 changes and obvious shifts with how you're showing up in 281 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,440 the world and also how you're thinking about yourself. So 282 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,399 I would always prioritize those. And then you can also 283 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,480 look at these longer transits of Ur Honest, Neptune, Pluto. 284 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,840 Those I would really prioritize when do they come into exact, 285 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:57,080 exact alignment with the ascendant, because that transit will last. 286 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,000 I don't anywhere from like one, two even three years 287 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,160 with like a Pluto transit. So it's this more subtle 288 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:10,039 reworking of how you see yourself or important transformation going 289 00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:13,400 on within you. I would say other than first House 290 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,839 transit You'll also want to look at where is your 291 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,960 chart ruler placed in your chart so and when are 292 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,400 transit's happening that are affecting your chart ruler. So let's 293 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,920 say you have a Scorpio rising, you're looking at whereas 294 00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:29,119 Mars in your chart. Let's say you Mars and Virgo. 295 00:17:29,279 --> 00:17:33,079 So even though there aren't eclipses in Scorpio, or Jupiter 296 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,960 or Saturn aren't in Scorpio at the moment, none of 297 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,119 the outer planets are either, there's eclipses happening in Virgo, 298 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,640 so that's affecting that chart ruler. So it could be 299 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,920 felt in a similar way to a major first house transit, 300 00:17:46,039 --> 00:17:50,880 and the same goes with eclipses or Pluto aspecting your Sun, 301 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,880 because Sun is a lot about sense of self and 302 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,160 the identity that you're developing over the course of your lifetime. 303 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,599 So especially when you get a longer transit like Pluto, 304 00:18:02,799 --> 00:18:07,279 Uranus Neptune to the Sun, that's really having you tap 305 00:18:07,319 --> 00:18:10,079 into the qualities of your Sun sign and develop them 306 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,359 in a way you may not have before. So to 307 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:19,240 recap astrology of identity shifts, first house transits, Sun transits 308 00:18:19,279 --> 00:18:22,680 to your Sun and transits to the ruling planet of 309 00:18:22,839 --> 00:18:27,319 your ascendant, okay, your rising sign. And one final one 310 00:18:27,319 --> 00:18:29,960 I would add in is transits to the mid Heaven, 311 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,960 although I feel like that's not so much in terms 312 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,519 of like identity and self as more as like what 313 00:18:36,559 --> 00:18:38,519 do I want to put out into the world and 314 00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:41,000 what career do I want to pursue or where do 315 00:18:41,039 --> 00:18:46,119 I find passion? Like what's my life calling, what side projects? 316 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,559 What career path lights me up the most? So it 317 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,960 has this slant towards more like what do I like 318 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:56,240 doing rather than who am I? And finally, I want 319 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,720 to wrap up with some transits that I'm excited for 320 00:18:58,839 --> 00:19:03,000 in twenty twenty five. One is Saturn entering Aries and 321 00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:06,880 the other is You're honest entering Gemini. Just excited to 322 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,000 get out of this earth water focus. Saturn and Pisces 323 00:19:10,039 --> 00:19:13,359 has felt very heavy since March of twenty twenty three. 324 00:19:13,799 --> 00:19:15,400 I don't know if that's because it's in my eighth 325 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,200 house or just like everyone's felt that way because it's 326 00:19:18,279 --> 00:19:23,240 Saturn in this very hard to grasp water sign of 327 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,519 Pisces where it's hard to know what's reality and what's 328 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,519 not and just like overly sensitive and emotional and now 329 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:35,359 Saturn will be more about taking action and actively building something. 330 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,400 And I'm just excited to have Saturn in the ninth 331 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:43,039 house because the ninth house is truly my favorite part 332 00:19:43,079 --> 00:19:48,759 of the chart. It relates to education, travel, spirituality, Like 333 00:19:48,839 --> 00:19:52,920 being an astrologer having ninth house planets is super common. 334 00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:54,880 I don't have that, but I know like a lot 335 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,599 of astrologers have like a ninth house mid heaven or 336 00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:01,240 planets of some sort in their ninth house. Else, what 337 00:20:01,319 --> 00:20:04,359 else is ninth house different? Like beliefs, just finding different 338 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,680 ways of looking at the world and feeling like you 339 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,000 have this greater sense of meaning and purpose in your 340 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,960 life and kind of broadening your horizons in that way. 341 00:20:16,799 --> 00:20:20,279 And then I'm excited for Your Honest to go into 342 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,359 my eleventh and just it's kind of crazy that Your 343 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,319 Honest is changing signs like it's been in Taurus since 344 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,319 twenty nineteen is when it fully entered Taurus, and it's 345 00:20:31,319 --> 00:20:35,400 probably brought a lot of shakeups and rapid changes and 346 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,720 growth and development to that Taurus worldhouse of your chart. 347 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,319 So the second it enters Gemini, which I believe is 348 00:20:42,319 --> 00:20:45,039 like right after July fourth, because I was looking around 349 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,000 doing an event around this for my community, because Your 350 00:20:48,039 --> 00:20:49,960 Honest is entering my eleventh house and I want to 351 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,440 do more like group and community activities. But it's early July. 352 00:20:54,559 --> 00:20:57,480 It goes in and then it doesn't fully It backtracks 353 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,920 in the fall, and then it fully re enters gem 354 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,160 I in twenty twenty six. But I do feel like 355 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,160 the second Uranus moves into a new house, it there's 356 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,160 shakeups that go on in that part of your life, 357 00:21:09,319 --> 00:21:12,799 and it's very obvious of how there needs to be 358 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,359 a change. Just thinking back when it entered my tenth 359 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,279 house in twenty eighteen for just a few months before 360 00:21:19,279 --> 00:21:22,759 it fully returned in twenty nineteen. In twenty eighteen, I 361 00:21:22,799 --> 00:21:24,640 still felt this urge of like there needs to be 362 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,119 a change with career. I'm not happy with the path 363 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,599 I'm on. That change needs to happen. And then the 364 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,240 change didn't happen until twenty nineteen when it fully returned. 365 00:21:35,599 --> 00:21:39,480 So the initial desire to have the shift or the 366 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,599 change and the Gemini ruled house of your chart may 367 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:47,039 come up this summer and for people in other hemispheres, 368 00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:51,359 that might be your winter, But like the point is July, August, September, October, 369 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:56,319 and then that change might not be fully realized until 370 00:21:56,599 --> 00:22:00,000 we get into twenty twenty six, So yeah, I'm excited 371 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,559 for those I love fire and air, sign energy, water 372 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:08,200 and earth is definitely harder to navigate in my personal opinion. 373 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,319 But I hope you enjoyed this chat and we're able 374 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,960 to relate to some of it. We'd love to hear 375 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,960 your feedback and if there's specific topics you want me 376 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,640 to cover in these astro chats, I was going to 377 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:23,519 do one specifically on navigating tough career transitions. I think 378 00:22:23,519 --> 00:22:25,359 that was the next one I wanted to cover. But 379 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,119 if there are other topics you want me to talk about, 380 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,960 feel free to leave them in the comments. And yeah, 381 00:22:30,039 --> 00:22:30,880 thank you for listening.
