 Hello everybody. I'm so excited. We're here for part two of our planet talks with my friend Cindy and we're gonna be talking about one planet that I'm slightly obsessed with right now because I've just recently learned that they don't have thumbs on this planet and All they do all days just do it So I'm really fascinated by this and this is the planet of Venus and we're also going to be talking about the planet of Jupiter now if you missed our part one discussion We spoke about last week about the Sun and about Saturn and I will place part one down in the description box below It's not necessary to watch part one first But it is down there just in case you want a refresher on those two planets or you happen to miss them Of course along with that will be all the links to Cindy's YouTube channel as well as the website to her Magic school her yoga Shala where she runs all these awesome courses where you can get deeper into your personal interpersonal relationship with all these energies that are around us including the planets How are you today, Cindy? I'm good. Thank you. I'm happy and excited to be here to talk about two of I love both the Jupiter and Venus. I mean, they're just full-on the benefit You know, there's it's up there. They're all good and I You've been slight, you know, okay, so I've been slightly obsessed with both of them. Honestly Jupiter I've been working with Jupiter for many years, but then at my home in my bedroom I actually have a whole little altar set up just for Aphrodite And Aphrodite is Venus and that's Aphrodite is just the Greek interpretation of Venus and I've been Lighting that's that little altar up for probably a good year. Oh and so Venus is just so Venus Aphrodite, you know all about harmony and pleasure and Love All the different forms of love. I mean, we could all use some of that Yoga teachers were always like except the suffering pain is real Like but before we get to talk about like Venus It's kind of fun because that's also a part of being human is experiencing The good sensations as well and it just one of so I know I know people watching know that Elton John is dirty But I do like his music and I just keep getting that whenever I think about Venus that song Levi where he's like in Jesus He wants to go to Venus leave leave on far behind I kind of want to go to Venus too because it does sound like they are having some fun over on Venus as I said We have heard they don't have thumbs and we've talked about Sydney that the The creation of the thumb is what created such polarization on our planet because it created Weapons and all kinds of stuff, but apparently over on Venus as I've jokingly said, but seriously what I've heard is they literally just like do it all day, you know like I Get it I can see that Aphrodite, what's that line from thoroughly modern Millie after dining? Don't forget me Romeo and Julie at me like so Let's start with some fun some fun Venus information and we and Venus just went direct again, right? It was also retrograde so well everybody knows about mercury retrograde like your communication gets a little bit off There's positive and negative so when Venus goes retrograde. What does that mean for like relationship? And stuff like that since that's kind of the house it kind of rules or the pleasure sensation with within Ourselves and with other people as well Mm-hmm. Well then Venus retrograde talking about love or You know songs that would be where is the love? He goes into retrograde, you know Because that's what it feels like And You'll feel that in the in the relationships as well there might be a slight breakdown in communications or some of the aspects or challenges that you've had in your Relationships will start to come up during during her retrogradation and and even toward yourself because In in Greek, you know, there are different kinds of love. There's the Relationship the romantic love there is the love that you have between friendships There's the love that you have just the collected love of her humanity and you know the love that you have toward yourself And so it affects all of that so it's gonna affect not just your relationships But the relationship that you even have with with yourself It can bring up any issues that you have where you're still beating yourself up about something or you have shame You have guilt toward yourself You know so the her when she goes into retrograde It brings up anywhere where where the love is is missing or it's gone or or or it's been kind of misplaced or or Anything like that well It's kind of it can though even though that sounds like awful like everyone dreads that but it's a good time to like Re-evaluate things and work on things especially if it's with a partner that you do love you can when those issues come up you can start to actually use it as a time to kind of See where the work lies within that relationship too, so it's not always a bad thing I do know however that just like in mercury retrograde It's not a good idea to like start a new project in your mercury retrograde It's good time to end a project, but it's not a good time to start a new project Well Venus retrograde that's not a good time to start like a new relationship Is it like a love relationship you want you want it to start when Venus is direct? I would say so yeah, I mean But I'm unless you just want to start off with just some immediate like If you're strong enough, you know like mature enough to go in with some immediate like hey, you know Look at me because well Venus is it she rules harmony and She rules harmony in relationship So if you if you're going into Relationship with when that aspect is in like a shadow or retrograde period and then it can make it certainly more More challenging And she just went direct again right so we were in his period of fate of time where Venus was also Retrograde with mercury and now she just went direct again And so and it's interesting because once you start at least I noticed once you start to understand the planetary influences and energies around you you can actually feel it when The energy shifts in your own life. I mean I can't at least you can kind of feel when that that It's not a staticky anymore as as it may be What was for a couple of weeks, you know, so because she's not in right how long does she go retrograde? I'm not exactly sure the date, but it was just a few days ago. Yeah, we could get yeah It wasn't terribly long ago. And you know retrogrades have a shadow period too. They sure do minute For it so for the direct to where you feel like it it really kicks back in again I can just hear people. I'm not going. Oh my god. This explains so much Exactly Right it does. You're like, oh my god. I'm not crazy It's because I saw the funniest thing on Facebook. I think it was like a tweet I Screenshot it into the sky was like I need some white girl with a nose ring Which is me to tell me which planet is making me depressed and someone put underneath it. It's earth, bro It's earth. Yeah, exactly It's her. I thought it was so funny, but plan is making me depressed right now Well what so after daddy will you tell and for people who aren't familiar with after daddy? I know people why people know that name Um, can you kind of give a little backstory on who Aphrodite is and she is Venus? Yeah, she's the the Greek version of Venus after daddy the goddess of love and it's all the She has a lot of the same attributes that that Venus does, you know, she represents Like the harmony The the pleasure and that's where we really I think you know when we think of Aphrodite We think of the the pleasure aspect of course the love aspect, but especially the pleasure side of life I mean, if you think of Aphrodite acts as named after Aphrodite And it's learning how to really and that's how I feel like Since I've had the Aphrodite altar set up for a while that has been one of the biggest lessons That she's had for me Is this idea of pleasure and I think I shared this in another video that I made with another friend of mine when we were talking about Venus But our capacity to receive Very much lies in our capacity To experience more pleasure in our lives Like the frequency of pleasure. It's like when you're you're in that place of pleasure I'm not just talking about sexuality. Of course, you know A good orgasm is always good, but I'm just talking about in general. Yeah In general pleasure Seeing the the beauty and enjoying the sensations like Aphrodite and Venus Are associated with Enjoying the sensations of life Enjoying the food that you taste enjoying the You know what like when you're you you look out into Nature like really truly seeing the beauty taken in the smells And your sensation is fully coming alive and the pleasure that you receive from From that because that is that is what life is, you know life is more about Experiencing than it is anything else and that's what Aphrodite And Venus are about When we close off our pleasure, which that resides within our second energy center, which is also very much There's some stigma around that too Where oh, you know, we shouldn't feel like pleasure is bad Yeah, if you if you go to some the older dogmatic beliefs where you know pleasure It can be distracting or it's bad or you shouldn't go down the line of pleasure down the line Or down that lane of of desire And sure, I mean it can get to a point where it becomes addictive right or it can be it can become a distraction for sure Uh, but if you close it off completely and just say well, pleasure is bad like, you know Enjoying um enjoying all my sensations and even you have to watch that even a little bit with the um How we interpret things like the yoga sutras because the the yoga sutra she got the prajahara, which is a withdrawal of the senses, right? And I think there's there's a reason for that so that you can That you can come back and not not be so distracted. Yeah, so there's a balance with this, you know, there's a balance to play with Enjoying life enjoying and not being afraid of pleasure, but at the same time not letting it distract you from Work from your purpose or your mission or your work or it not turning into some kind of an addiction or an attachment So there is like a carefulness that that needs to go with that But you know, I don't think that it means that we close our life all from pleasure all together No, absolutely When we do that it also closes off your capacity to receive because again that frequency of pleasure It feels good, right? There's there's just something About it that makes you just really truly come alive And that's what aphrodiety and this is like, oh you you just start to To open your eyes and and you become a numb Like if you numb yourself, I mean there's a certain I mean that doesn't feel very good. I mean it might to a certain You know degree for someone who doesn't want to feel anything But aphrodiety is saying no, you know, it's time to feel again It's time to enjoy your senses because feeling is part of the whole sensational realm as well It's funny if you close yourself all to you close your senses you close your feelings You know, you close your you know your sensations You close yourself off to to life itself to the life force, right? And when you do that, you also close yourself off from the abundance from receiving Yeah, you know a lot of times we we we close off because we don't want to receive the negative like the bad things like the yucky Smells or something we look at we don't like we don't like what we see so we we turn our heads or Or we we close our ears because we don't want to hear what's what's coming or we don't want to hear what's being said And then that just Creates like this place of um of what's the word of denial? Yeah, and you know and aphrodiety is like the opposite of that It's the opposite of of living in denial It she's like Take it in, you know, take it in fully. Yes. Do your practices to keep you on track Do your practices to um to keep you from you know going into the realms of of um Of light suffering Yeah, you know what I mean because when we open ourselves to feelings we open up to sensations We open up to all of it. Yes, you know what I mean? Yeah, and that's what she asks you to do It's like you don't just close yourself. You can't it's really hard to close yourself To some of it, you know when you close yourself off you close yourself off to the good and the bad, right? It's really hard to close yourself off to just bad. That's almost impossible So the second you you shut down You shut down the good and the bad Which then shuts down your ability to also like really take in and to receive Yeah, that makes sense Yeah, and it's funny to talk about because I always you know in my soul Well, even in a lead primary class in ostrom yoga. We don't play music That's just a rule and I always tell the beginner students like I'm a huge fan of the arts I'm a huge music lover But I use myself an example if I listen to music while I'm practicing because I love the sensation of music It becomes it enables me to not actually go deep into my own work at that moment And so it's almost like finding that there's a time for me to fall into The movement of music and a time for me to actually do my practice Knowing how to separate the two to find that balance of what's happening at that now moment And I love that, you know, it's so funny And I'll I'll see if I can stand up you guys can see and you know We talk a lot about kundalini and what what Cindy's talking about If you guys can see in my but this the area around this sake That's where that the energy lies and that total bowl at the at the base of the pelvis And I'll never forget being at a uh a weekend intensive with David Grieg up in Philadelphia my original ashtanga teacher and him talking about how hard it is to access Especially for western women to access that part of our even our own bodies Which is our pleasure senses because we've been taught taught by society to like Not go there, you know what I'm saying? And so it's interesting you brought that up because aphrodite and venus are inviting you to actually go there And there's a lot of power in that area of the body. There's a lot of power in that that's not just all sexual It's it's it's it's another power that's there in that area of of the body for both men and women But for women, especially it's like women have a really hard time and for us and yoga We have the mola bunda connecting to the other there's a whole thing there that's happening but it's like We have been kind of the power of venus of aphrodite has been kind of stripped of us You know in the past on this timeline. Do you see moving forward into this age of aquarius that she will become more um more of a balanced uh character or energy in our lives this venus energy Oh, yeah, I can see it already happening with the rise of the even the divine You know, we've had so many Conversations about the divine feminine. Yeah, and that's part of it is awakening that sense That has been shamed for so long. You because our pleasure centers have been um Definitely repressed or oppressed With things like you you shouldn't feel that because it's you know, it's sinful or There's shame around that and and we even hold ourselves that way There's so many women that hold themselves not just women but men too that hold ourselves where you feel like you have to like Pucker it out like hold it all in you can't show that part of yourself You know like you got to get in you got to cross your legs. You got to tighten everything up down there uh because I'm talking about like millennium of shame tied to To pleasure Yeah, you know all sorts of planning and not just sexual pleasure But just pleasure in general like pleasure. We got to take it out of that box of being sinful Right. We've been thinking about food like I was because I'm not you know, I'm someone that I'm not a foodie. You know, I'm not someone that like I I can't cook for I mean, I don't even know how to boil an egg. Let's be honest. I always have to call my mom to ask How do you boil a damn egg like you know, just just never had had an interest in and having I'm sure if I had a child I would learn because I would want to but never had that interest and when I eat food It's more of just practical Eating to to move on to the next thing But as I was thinking about how I that's something that I need to work on and myself is to actually sit down When I eat and actually taste What's in my mouth if that makes sense? And I and I know a lot of people though will go the extreme where they're using too much of food And then there's a different reaction But I know a lot of people who are able to just sit and like really Take in the sensation of eating and I'm just like, let's do this. Let's get it over with and move on to the next thing Um, so and it's the pleasure like for me. I for like 20 years now. I think I probably 20 years now Every night I take a salt bath every single night without fail And that's something I really enjoy because there's a pleasure sensation in the smells of the salts in the bubbles I usually read I usually read a murder mystery like Usually like, you know, there's pleasure in that and that's okay. It's it's something you look forward to you know, it's something that that in this in the The uh flipping on of the sensation the senses is what gives you a sense of also Almost who you kind of are in this body because different people have different Likes and and all that kind of stuff. Well, I mean, what what else do you know about venus? Do you know um about the people on there or like? I'm just so fascinating. They only have that they don't have thumbs I don't know Anyway, I'm like, they don't have thumbs guys. They don't have thumbs The actual beings of venus. I don't know too much about that. I wish I did though I mean, I don't know what I feel like I'm like, y'all they don't have thumbs like They don't have freaking thumbs. Um, but it's a beautiful planet. Isn't it venus? She's beautiful Yeah Well, well because that's another thing that she represents. She is beauty So one of the things that she'll the energy that she holds is pleasure And the other one is a beauty and anything that creates more beauty is is so venusian You know, we're talking about music the music that uplifts you, you know, talk about creating art Like art and music any of that that cultural Experiences that we have that just really awaken us to life right beauty that is all You know venusian qualities and even seeing again, it's all just taking it back to to yourself too It's not just seeing the beauty that's out there, but then recognizing your own personal beauty and You know doing the things that make you feel beautiful as well Like taking the time to to do the things that you know, whether it is brushing or putting on brushing your hair putting on lipstick You know Or making your bed, you know, so that your room feels more all that stuff seems so like basic Or the things that don't matter But it does matter whatever makes you feel good about yourself whatever makes you feel beautiful Whatever creates more beauty in life that is venus, you know, we want we want more of that We want we need more of that we need more venus In our lives So just creating beauty however you can through through words through songs through lyrics through dance, you know any kind of movement Um Appreciating our own personal beauty doing the things that make you feel feel like that that to feel it attractive Because venus also through beauty she has that essence of magnetism And and you know when you're around someone Whether they're physically beautiful or whether they're poetic in their words But there's just something about them that has like this magnetic pull that magnetism That is venus. Yeah That's um, there's there's nothing sexier than someone that's doing what they love You know, it's right energy associated with it And it's um, you know beauty is in the eye of the beholder when you behold that energy That's what's so beautiful and that's what's so magnetic and and um So how if somebody's I know because I know a lot of our viewers right now are just now for so long Even astrology was just doomed and gloomed by everyone that it was you know Back religion and I know so many people right now are starting to kind of re Discover this stuff that I believe our ancestors knew perfectly well about if someone watching this right now Realizes that they are on a path. They have patterns where they um Deny themselves pleasure. What would be a good starting point to Invoking venus the energies of venus into so and into someone's life that they're not used to that allow it giving himself permission to have those experiences I would start very basic just the way that we were talking about and that's the beauty of these planets, especially with venus Um, that's because we live in a highly sensational world. There's no denying that yeah, like you can Walk out your your door and you'll be Something something's gonna you'll either see Someone walking or you know, you'll see trees or you you look up in the sky. You'll see the sun Um, we we live in a highly highly sensational world. So to tie into venus is actually quite easy It's just a matter of awakening your sense if you want to Tap into venus the more the quickest way is to awaken yourself up to your senses the side that you're gonna not Um, you're not gonna be numb anymore It could be as simple as every morning lighting in an instant stick and awakening your sense of smell You know, it could be as simple as making sure that you turn on music that really brings you joy and that makes you come alive You know, it doesn't have to be complicated. None of this. I mean venus is not complicated It because we are so immersed in the sensational world It's really easy To look at the beauty and to see to be if you want to it's also really easy to look at everything that's going Wrong in the world. Yep, but it's just as easy To to look at the beauty to see the beauty And so it's that shift of perspective deciding that i'm going to to see what's right And to see what's good in the world instead of focusing on all the shit that's wrong All right venus is the one that says no, you know, because because like I said, it's just as easy To look at the good as it is to look at the bad Absolutely You just have to you know, you have to turn turn it around and decide that you want to do that And there's there's a lot of good around you and there's so so much Especially here in george. I think they live in a beautiful state. Whatever state you live in You know, the trees are magnificent. The birds are out there chirping, you know The there is so much beauty in the world. Yeah, it's like that Albert Einstein quote I think it was the Einstein that said you can live your life The unparaphrasing thinking everything is in a miracle. Everything is a miracle. Like it's how you perceive it And george is I have to tell you know, I I am a beach person I like being on the coast as my mom's family is from but lately I've been trying to dig into like the history of atlantis and and it's it's Proximity to the state of georgia and I've been it's it's kind of taken me back because georgia is beautiful Where we live is magical like it is gorgeous. Um, especially in north georgia at the base of the appellation mountains There's magic here around us in the nature and I think everybody I mean I think about like even The southwest which is another area that I've I've been to but I would like to explore more because there's magic there as well It is all around you and I guess yes that perception of um Of that venus energy of Being with it and experiencing that as well or you could live in george and be like these damn mosquitoes. Just won't stop biting them Exactly that happens too Hot hot Who are not from georgia like that I've filmed with that ever other like in the summertime I was like, man, I'm sweating like a horn church like it's just so hot here in In georgia, but but you know, but there's beauty. I mean people listen, you know, we say it was southern women We don't sweat we glisten, you know, like there's there's beauty there, too Um and so and yeah, it's not it's not all I mean we joke about the sex thing because it is, you know That's kind of what we joke about but it's more than just that it's absolutely more than just that So why don't we now talk about jupiter? Jupiter jupiter. He's the planet of just pure expansion and growth We talked about the sun last time how sun also represented your mission Like your mission and your purpose and lack given you clarity toward that Well, what jupiter does is jupiter says, okay, this is how you can get there These are the things that go are going to attribute to your growth. These are the things that you can do That are going to align you with your mission and your purpose um and you know jupiter is like the The biggest planet out there and he has like this very grave, you know a lot of gravity to him as well and so it suggests that the essence of growth and expansion and wealth those who are tied or are interested in You know just stepping into more abundance. They're in lack or scarcity jupiter is the the first planet that you call on to to try to help you out of that that feeling of scarcity or that feeling of not having enough Because jupiter wants you to feel like you have enough because that's where it starts, you know It's it starts there if you're stuck in lack and scarcity all the time It's even hard to tap into the sensation of growth right and so You know, he comes in to help you align that your your your thoughts or any Preconditions that you might have and let me tell you spiritual people to have all sorts of crazy ass Thoughts about wealth and money. Yeah, I mean we just do. I mean there is so much I mean, I you know I'd have to do the personal work through that I'm still doing the personal work But almost you know just in general That's something that people who are in the line of spirituality. They have a hard time with the idea of wealth Yeah, because when they think of wealth, they think of greed Automatically, you know what I mean? And so there's like this and in especially if there are spiritual people who are trying to make a living God forbid because then it's like there is just so much controversy around all that like oh, well, you shouldn't make money over this anyways all that to say is that spiritual anyone who's like within the realm of of Talking about spirit or expansion, which is they're all very Jupiter-type topics because it's all about spreading wisdom and knowledge because Jupiter is also the planet of wisdom Yeah, okay, but he's also the planet of wealth You can spread wisdom and you can have wealth And they don't have to be one or the other I know and that's so funny you say that because I've gotten that before as As a teacher, I know you have two Sunday where people get mad that we charge tuition to come to our classes And I'm like I'm always like well I have to pay my teacher in India for my education and if you want me to teach you That's an energy I have to give and if I'm not making money Then that means I I have to get enough I still have the same bills to pay that everybody else does so I would have to go get a job And not be able to teach you anymore and it is that weird and and I see it too with a lot of I know a lot of people who are highly trained in a spiritual field Who very much undervalue themselves with money now? There are people out there that will charge way too much for what they're offering But yeah, I'm so glad you brought that up because whether it's a yoga reiki Whatever type of discipline that you're teaching You're allowed to make money doing it, especially if you have put a lot of energy into your own education, you know, and Yeah The energy of jupiter says pretty much confirms for you that it's okay for you to feel wealth right and And that can be in money or However, that comes through to you but in our society right now Wealth is very often the tide Tied to too money because the money gives you senses of freedom that if you don't have money Or if you're living in poverty If you're living if you're living in poverty, it has a very restrictive feeling Yeah, and your consciousness. I don't care what you say. It just does And people say all the time especially if it's poverty that you're not choosing for yourself It's one thing you decide to go live off the grid Yeah, you're doing all that because you can live in wealth living off the grid living off the land But if you are like in poverty And you're not choosing to be in poverty That feeling sucks. Yeah, I mean, I know that feeling myself. It's very constricting And that jupiter is like, you know, you know, yeah, you know That's not necessary for you to live in poverty to grow spiritually No, it's so funny because people will say like to me like, oh, well, you know Those gurus in india didn't charge that some of their students Well, let me tell you what those students who didn't pay did for those gurus. They lived with them They cleaned their house. They ran their errands for them There was always an exchange happening to help the teacher out and even like, yeah Like I look I look at bcass. I ain't guard a potabi joist even kismetariya towards the end They were very wealthy towards the end of their um, yeah, and that that's that's okay Yeah, and I know that feeling of not having enough is is scary It's a scary feeling and that of course will cause magnetism for more fear and more stress in your life and that's not You know, it's the opposite of jupiter energy. This is the opposite of expansion and growth Right and and you don't need I mean, I know the wall of one talks about this like Being a martyr is not a positive attribute Don't you know, so I think a lot of spiritual people think that they need to put themselves in that position of being a martyr It's not a that's not positive That's not that's a service to self. Like that's not, you know, you don't need to be in that position. So so, yeah Yeah, well, let's talk about the wisdom of jupiter. So what's the wisdom if we have the wealth and the wisdom is that Father time. Well, you know Saturday's part of time jupiter is like well, you're talking about the guru You know the guru the way the weighty one the one that has the wisdom They're very jupiterium. If that if that's a word, you know, so so the teacher one The teachers the philosophers the you know, like the true gurus Um, the ones who are you know heads of any kind of spiritual Uh community in a good way, you know in a way that's providing wisdom Like in a good way That are providing true wisdom And a place where you can grow In that like in your knowledge in your wisdom because it it it takes you Towards your mission, you know what I mean? It's like um The more knowledge we have Yeah More there are we more the more we open up to that knowledge and that wisdom that's going to take us into the direction of of our path and So anyone who helps you with that any teachers That help you with with that like the teachers the philosophers the um the priestesses or the priests You know the good kinds or the ones that really want to help you that is also very that's jupiter That's jupiter inner I keep thinking like play to aerosol like you know, yeah. Yes. Yeah Teachings are still affecting us to this day Uh jesus mary magdalene um You know the true teaching Yeah, not the not the corrupted teaching but the true teaching was very self-liberating Um within yourself, you know, so Absolutely, you know, it's so funny because we're talking about you having you know Your shawl is kind of like a mystery school and something I learned from what I was saving a long time ago Was that little blip on jupiter that we see you know that dark the eye of jupiter that dark circle actually Allegedly connects to the pyramids of giza the energy cycle and the fact that the mystery schools actually started in egypt Connecting to jupiter. So there's that jupiter jupiterian energy right there just on where people were growing and learning within themselves Yes Yeah, so wisdom Uh, and you know, we talked about growth growth and expansion wealth I mean, these are all what jupiter is about and There's there's nothing There's nothing wrong with with any of that And you know, we need like we need I think we need more jupiter in our lives just as much as we need venus You know jupiter in last time when we were talking about the sun We talked about the placement of them within your astrological chart And you can look at that as well Because I know I gave a little we were talking about, you know, giving a brief example of Your sun placement in your chart like whatever your sun sign is Well, your venus also has a sign and your jupiter also has a sign and they also have house placements So if you're in into astrology And and you have a astrology chart and there's apps for that too. Um, the app that I use. I don't know if I shared this before but it's called time Passages Well, no, let me look and make sure that's right and it's a great little app on your phone where you put in your Yeah, time passages you put in your birthdays I mean there's there's things online too like half a astrology and I think astro.com Like if you're on a computer and you want to do it on a computer, but you can also Create your fine put it online And oh, you can't see that all you see is a white circle. But anyways, that was my my chart. I want to look it up. Yeah you can You can pull up your chart is it's pretty easy to get your chart Oh, yeah time passage is it's a is a great app that I like to use and there you can look at the placements The which one is that is it the top one or the blue the purple or blue? The one down the one with the moon half moon the blue one. Okay. All right. I'm getting that right now guys I'm gonna have this it's so funny. I uh, you know, I always laugh because um I was born in south carolina and my burst actually just I was going through my old baby book Through some stuff today and my actually my original birth certificate isn't my baby book But I have apparently lost my first birth certificate many times I've had to order it and they they south carolina from when I was born gives you the your exact time of birth Like it gives you everything on the birth certificate. I know some birth certificates don't but it gives my exact time of birth um, and so Yeah, that's so cool and it's so I've had my chart done three times in my life and it is it is it's it's really fascinating because you can't see all That stuff and where everything is is connected Um, well, I'll say I've had my chart done with my permission three times in my life As I now know somebody else has been using my chart without my permission But we've already talked about that but with my permission But yeah That you can look on your chart and see what where your jupiter because again your jupiter has a sign like my jupiter's in capricorn And it's in the tip house. It's in the same house as my Sagittarius So these are the things what that are going to make it's going to give you some characteristics about okay What's going to make that? The the your your Your jupiter self, you know the part of you that wants to grow that wants to expand that wants to know well You know what house placement what makes what makes your jupiter happy and what also stimulates it through through the sign And it can tell you about that look at you know, look at your jupiter flight my venus Is it in the scorpio which is probably not the best sign for venus, but My venus is in scorpio and it's in the night house I have a lot a lot in the night house But that's the way that you can also take a look at look at the planets Look at how they're placed and this is just very simple basic astrology that i'm talking about here I mean you can go into all sorts of Deep deep deep dives within your astrological chart, but if you're not quite there yet I mean, I don't know I don't there's a lot about that aspect of astrology I don't know but you can start very simply by looking Understanding the attributes of the planet Looking at where they are within your chart and just start one one at a time You know start with the sun we talked about the sun That's an easy one because most of us know our sun sign then move on to jupiter Okay, so where you know what's my jupiter sign and what house is it in then move on to venus and let that be A way to give you some awareness about your about yourself and what makes you tick and what makes You know brings out joy and what brings out expansion in your own life It's it's written out. It's literally written out in the stars on on your chart And that's you know So you you you can work with the planets through your chart and the way we talked about last time is you you call them down You call down the energy by you know creating sacred space form Using candles doing little ceremonies with them on their day jupiter's day is thursday venus's day is friday So those are what we're we're today wednesday. We're actually in mercury's mercury's day What day is this i don't even know anymore I don't know But um, yeah, so if you need to call down more wealth in your life, you know Or more just wisdom or more growth you you want to know what growth feels like You know call it again. It's not that it's not there the reason Or the way these these planets work is They just show you parts of yourself that you've forgotten. Yeah, you know, you're always aligned with Or you always have the possibility of being aligned with your growth, but you just may be veiled at the moment Right, but what these uh planets will do though is they're going to make you also face parts of yourself You actually have to show up. Yeah with any of these you you have to show up And you and you have to do the work that when they reveal something to you then you know you go in and You do the work That's why doing work with like jupiter and if you want more wealth for instance Or more abundance in your life Then it's going to require you to to do your the work with where your mindset is around wealth and around money I mean are are you shutting it off because you think that wealth is bad? Yeah, because there's this thing with money too where you know, there is a side to it that there's corruption Yeah And then there's no denying that that that happens, but it's also willing to like to to go there and to understand that And not shut yourself off From From your own wealth because you think that you're going to be corrupt or you're going to be feeding into this corrupt system Do you see me? So in other words, it's going to require you to go in into your mind and into your belief systems And to to look at where you're holding yourself back from your own growth expansion wealth wisdom And that's about yourself too because as you're saying this I know something that I had to work through in trauma therapy when I And I I am not really like I've never I mean I always laugh This is why I've always dated poor men because I I've never really cared about like money's never really been a I've never really thought about it, but I've also I realized in trauma therapy. It never felt like I deserved Yeah, and that's a huge one huge one Because and I and I grew up with a Pretty well stew family, but it was this like hell belief I had about myself that I was undeserving Of certain things and that came from childhood stuff but um, but I didn't even realize that that was what was happening with me was It was a mix of two things like I didn't really think about money that much, but I also didn't feel deserving of Of getting back what I had put into certain things, right? You know like I had a job a long time ago where it was really hard for me to like get paid Like I had to like chase down my paycheck and I remember having to like talk to therapist about that because Months would go by And I would be like I wouldn't I wouldn't feel like I deserved to ask for that You know and that's and I'm wondering I know that's a childhood thing guys, but but um But like that's kind of I guess I think if you I think a lot of people kind of have that issue I don't think that's uncommon and would that be working with jupiter to to try to heal that Yes, you can work with jupiter to help heal all those different belief systems or traumas that we have around it or um, if you're Another common one too, especially if you look more like me, you know your brown skin or whatever Is well people who look like me Aren't they don't They're not the wealthy ones. You know people who look like me just don't They don't get there. You know what I mean, and so but that's just another belief system That's a belief system that you've put on yourself That is like doesn't have to be true It no it doesn't have to be true, but we can make it true Like we can believe it and we can sink our teeth in it and make it true But it's you know, it's not true. It's so funny because it seems like jupiter doesn't want you to be a victim I don't know. Oh my gosh, he will take you out of that victim or he'll try to take you out of that victim Well because victim mentality makes you small think of it anything that makes you small and constricted And jupiter is going to blow that wide open because his main intention is for you to get in in line with your mission and your purpose And to grow and to expand in that direction And so anything that that that that constricts you that will be his first place of healing for you But again, that said you got to go in and you got to do the work So it's not like you work with jupiter and jupiter's like santa claus. Do you say? I'm gonna like this candle. Hey, I want 20 thousand dollars I'm just gonna say And then jupiter's like here here's your 20 thousand dollars You know, it doesn't work like that You can say something like okay. I want to align myself up with you know receiving 20 thousand dollars A month or something. I don't know, you know, you can align yourself with that and then jupiter says, okay, you really want that Okay, well, then now here's the what you need to to do. Here's the belief systems that you have that Yeah, anything that has to do with you don't deserve it Or you can't do it. It's impossible because there's a lot of that just sense of impossibility Yeah, it just doesn't seem possible. And let's you know what I mean? There's a lot of that Yeah, and all of this. Yeah, it is. I'm so glad you brought that up because it isn't like a vending machine It isn't like santa claus isn't like spell casting like now give it to me. It's actually going to make you work for it It's good To it because you have it within your power with your your capacity to align with the things that that you want to call forth You know But that you have to do that someone like the these external forces aren't going to just suddenly make you that way But they will show you where You know, what you need to do they'll show you the path What what you need to take to to align with it And you can make it as big or as small as you want, you know, you can I mean it truly is all about you how how much you're willing to believe And there's another thing about This is one of uh jupiter's lessons for me. I think it was a it's a little bit a mix of jupiter and venus Where growth, you know the idea of growth There's a lot of sensation that comes with that. I'm sure you've probably experienced that you yourself arise with your channel Like you grow But then there's a lot of beautiful things, you know Probably a lot of feedback that you receive suddenly people are content you get good feedback And then you might not you might get other kinds of feedback Because you've exposed yourself. Yeah, right. And so then you're suddenly open to all of this You know more energy coming towards you. That absolutely that's part of growth Right because when you're when you're growing in this in in your capacity Yeah, you you become more visible to the world And when that this ability happens there could come a sense of overwhelm Oh my god, you know what I mean? Well that overwhelm is part of growth But that overwhelm can also shut you down like you're like, oh my god, this is just too much and most this is too much I'm gonna shut it down So it's almost like a little bit of like jupiter with venus being able to hold more sensation So that you can grow and and then you can just you hold more And that's jupiter too and in that expansive sense of growth You just simply you're able to hold more than you think you can and that is like it's like your container has to expand and grow And that also takes practice Like it doesn't just expand and grow probably all at once It probably has to go like this so you don't like totally Shut yourself down and overwhelm You know, it's so funny too because I have um A little bit of an issue with like ocd with some stuff and I know that comes from like anxiety disorders that I have with uh ptsd But it's like weird ocd like before I was on youtube I would freak out if there was an email in my inbox that I hadn't checked or read or responded to Or if there was a text I hadn't read or responded to But because of what's happening with youtube i'm i'm constantly getting emails i'm constantly getting i mean, you know Cindy I mean cindy you're my friend in real life and sometimes it takes me a couple of days to respond to your text messages, you know And before this it's been a practice for me because before this I would have freaked out But there are days when I I just have to let things go like I have to let some emails go because there's not you know And so I understand what you're saying like that overwhelming panicking But then if you write it you can start to kind of even break through your own barriers Yeah, that's jupiter That's jupiter right there. It's like I think it's a little bit of jupiter and venus It's like you have to train yourself to hold more sensation to hold more and more But that expands you and it grows you so you can hold more clear to your vision and purpose without getting so Distracted or without self sabotaging yourself and saying I can't take this Like this is too much. This is too hard. And so the whole self sabotage comes in Yeah, it does too and I think it's because we do yeah that self sabotage and also we we put unrealistic expectations when we Yeah, because you're when you expand and grow everything does change. So you have to change too You know what worked for you for me with the that was a good example having a platform now I'm still the same person before I had the platform But aspects of myself have had to change in order to Fit into this new reality. That is my life You know that makes sense. And so it's it's not self sabotage. It's just moving the self to fit To fit with the new path of life, but I'm still the same person. I'm just not as ocd by my emails anymore because it can't be Can't be impossible. So so yeah, that's so I'm this is so fascinating. I love all this information. I'm so happy it's coming back into um Now I want to say with venus who I forgot to say this It is the morning star now It has flipped it used to be that we could see venus at night But now we're seeing it in the morning and it it came uh in january and for those that aren't aware That's actually the book of revelation. That's when we know we're changing timelines is because uh into the age of aquarius me For those who would know that watch this channel, you know, revelations is not a scary book. It's actually very exciting Book it's about the changing of a timeline and the the morning star is venus that in january now venus is seen in the morning And not the evening is jupiter. You can see as well too, right in the sky sometimes Yeah, oh, yeah, definitely. Yeah, there are times when jupiter is big and strong and And as a matter of fact that there was that recent conjoint. What was it? Should I can't remember it was jupiter and another it was a jupiter and saturn. Was it last uh winter solstice Yeah, well it was right. It was before And it wasn't here this last winter solstice. It was before yeah, that's It was so with the conduct where they they were saying it was um It was what they saw in the sky during the christ Yeah, but it was we're entering in the it was like we were exiting one time It was like the star of bethlehem, but exiting from one time to another one It was exactly we I we that was yeah over a year ago because that was uh, what was that? 2020 uh winter solstice And living I mean cindy lives in in an area that's suburb But I live like right in the middle of the city So all I see is skyscrapers and we drove everywhere trying to see if we could see The constellation and it was just we could not it was it was too smoky or cloudy and We could see it. We could step outside the studio. Actually, that's what we did I taught a yoga class that day and then afterward we went outside to see but it never fully conjuncted You could still see the two planets separate from each other It never went into a full like a full kind of but it was still really really cool to see Yeah, to see experience. So yeah, I mean I mean, I think I think planets are portals as well. I think earth's also a portal I think there's so much more to the energies of planets than we've been led to believe and um, even in uh, The apocryphal excuse me the apocalypse of abraham I was just so fascinated in that missing book where god told abraham like The stars and the planets they live in the fifth firmament and they are messengers, which we know messenger angel So they are as powerful as the angels what we would consider And we know that angels are associated with the planets as well Like, you know, michael is the sun gabriel's the moon, you know, so it's it's so fascinating how powerful these These these things are and that for a short I think it's actually been a very short period of time in our timeline We haven't been privy to that knowledge I think for most of our humanity our ancestors knew exactly What was going on in the skies and then we just for a very short period lost that connection But we're getting it back again And that's yeah, it forces people to be accountable to themselves too. You can't You know kind of takes again that victim mentality away where you now have to do the work yourself so Yeah, and another interesting thing about venus you're talking about Is is that her path Is I if you follow her path, it's actually it forms a pentacle Interesting you like look that shit up to you Yes That one we know that Is the only it's just spirit air, you know, earth That's another thing that's been inverted in in our world is for us to run away from those things and and um, that's actually not And I've said this before so many times like the dark cult the dark bunch Darkness can't create only light can create so everything that's in existence Was first created by the light and used for positive and then was corrupted by the darkness and actually Cindy I'm going to ask you this on this show. I was going to text you I'm going to put you on the spot because you know, um, you were the one that recommended um this book to me Now reading it through we're doing theories on magdalene I want to do after we go through this I've been telling everybody that my plans are to go to the priestess hood of isis And I want to bring you on for that too because that's something you have knowledge about and that's another thing That's been inverted In our world is this idea of isis and what isis really was and so I hope you know, this is all like all the god in venus aphrodite The goddess how the goddess has been demented very magdalene How she's been diminished. Yeah, where she was a priestess of isis and Hathor And I have the book of the sypheo code. I love that Got it right here. I just haven't started it yet. So Yes, that's a bit. I love that one Um, there's a great information in that and there's another book. Um I have the second it's a it's a channeled book and it talks about Mary's The the grandmother Anna. Yes, the mother Mary's. Yeah, that's Anna Okay, I have the second book on Anna But the first one I haven't read the first one it comes highly recommended as well But it talks a lot about that is even this even the second book talks about it But the first book again, it's a channel, but but I love it. I think it's great It talks about the the mysteries and The the how it's tied into the the priestesses of isis and all that. Yeah And so I mean that's what jesus yashua grew up around was these women that had yeah So there's a lot and that's what's so fun for me because there's so much There's so much liberation now because all these things that we've been taught are bad or not actually bad And so there's there's liberation and rediscovering these tools and this knowledge that our ancestors had And that's super exciting. That's super exciting Yes, and the goddess and this is a very venous and the aphrodite and just a general sense of the goddess teachings It's so much about embodiment. Yeah Instead of trying to transcend like your body is this bad thing it's so much about bodying And loving your body and not hating on it or thinking that your body is a bad thing Which is a you know, which is a thing that you hear in An older like old spirituality like the body is something that's terrible You know, it's it just gets in the way Of your ascension or your enlightenment But the goddess teachings and goddess teachings are contra those are contra teachings Um, it's more about you go through your body To know to know your enlightenment and that is so venous and so aphrodite It's like it's what we're talking about the sensations like live through your body. See the beauty Smell live life and that's going to awaken you up to just life itself When when life itself, that's all it wants. It just wants you to experience it You know that that's a big um Something that ellen watt said that you live for life for life itself. It's simply to be alive I love that So that is such a venution or aphrodite thing because you gotta awaken yourself to you gotta be willing to take it in And that is like embodiment, you know, and that's so such a goddess thing too It's not you don't transcend your body. You come in you love your body And that's what the venous teachings teachings are to love yourself love Your body love your form your form isn't bad And then extend that love because you know venous is all about the love all about the love extend that love out Wherever you can I love how ellen watts because when I read that when he was because it's like human beings We have this like propensity to try to make things way more difficult than they really are And when I'm reading that with his writing like You know, we try what's the point of life and we have all these like deep You know theories and he's like just be alive Point of exactly be alive be human Like, you know, so I love ellen watts love if you guys have not read any of ellen watts Writings they can be intense. I mean they can be they can be but I can put some links down to some of his books Down in the description box below. He's no longer with us. I'm kind of bummed that he's no longer with us because I think him and rom daas they would have been quite tickled to see This unfolding Transfer a little ellen watts and I'm sure that would have been a fun room to be in. Yeah, we're in a room together Do you know I stuff in youtube with All in what if you want to go youtubeing down those ellen watts rabbit hole There is so funny that uh, so I i'm not a huge this kind of off subject and people watching might not know What kirtan is but kirtan is like Rock music for spiritual people will put it that way. I'm not a huge kirtan person to be honest with you guys I'm gonna list some erasmith like I'm just not but I did go to a bag of on daas uh kirtan once before and there's in bag of on daas obviously was uh used to kind of Pall around with rom daas and they had a falling out because bag of on daas has his own issues And regardless of all the issues bag of on daas had there was definitely something about that man Like there was some very magnetism about like there was something very powerful about and and I'm not a kirtan person but Um, but he was it was it was really intense And so yeah that whole group the allen watts the rom daas the bag of on daas Who's the one that looks like ned flanders? That's kirtan as well. That was around with them Krishna daas is that Krishna daas? Yes. I kind of looks like ned flanders and he's still out there doing Yeah So Yeah Yeah, yeah, I'm glad I'm glad you're not always still like when I tell people in the spiritual that I'm not really a kirtan person They're like And I'm like I just no I'm not either really I mean I'll yeah I'll hack your towns here at the studio and they're lovely, but yeah, I don't listen to kirtans on my radio Yeah, I totally listen to like I don't know something in the 80s But the 70s the 80s Rock and roll. I'm totally the I'm totally like the glamour rock girl Oh me too Yeah, yeah, I used to live in LA. I used to live on the sunset strip I was actually a house guy at the viferoom and that glam rock is still really big in LA like For a while there the only men I dated were eyeliner like that was like, you know I shared with an ex-boyfriend like we share jeans because it was the tight, you know eyeliner jeans Take him longer to get ready than me So it's still it was still very much alive in the early 2000s in LA and I would go to the yeah, so that's me too. I like that And I'll tell you something too. My son he's 16 years old and he's a classical musician He plays class. He plays a classical piano. He's been playing since he was three years old He loves classical music. I mean, yeah, actually that's what he listens to he loves climbing so he listens to Beethoven and he listens to Chopin and rock mononuf and he plays them and our house is full of you know, classical music going on the time And I'm like, um, can we not listen to classical music? Can I like listen to like some Bon Jovi? Can this be Prince? Yeah, the prince or something like that The sun's like it's the roles are reversed. Hey, I said only I would say I went to a Bon Jovi concert when I lived in Los Angeles at the Staples Center And that was one of the most fun concerts I've ever been through. First of all, Bon Jovi is tiny He's like, I don't even know. He's five feet tall. He's tiny and the hair. Oh my god The hair was amazing for all the women the big jersey hair and Yeah, the Rolling Stones were great. Mick Jagger just ran all over the stage the whole time and um, Let's see a bit of journey. Are you a speed wagon? Ted Nugent? Oh, yeah I went to Styx. I had so much fun at Styx. I was kind of embarrassed. I was kind of embarrassed to go to Styx But I had so much fun at the stick. It was they were so great. Um, I've been to the monkeys before the lead singer passed away I was with my parents at Chastain Park to the monkeys. I mean, yeah, it's it's I love rock and roll though It's It's so I miss going to concerts because there's an yeah, I know so do I I I love it too, but yeah, it's just it's just kind of funny how To each their own My son is like he's let's say he says he's not into like music of his time And he'll listen to music of our time But he doesn't listen to the music of this time like he prefers listening to like, you know I mean seriously, he will listen to Beethoven and he will listen to Chopin. I'm like, who are you? He's like his last wife was in Vienna, Austria My husband are not that like we're not that wet That is awesome You know, that's that's all Venus too, you know, it's Well, he's very talented you guys like she I can't believe he's 16. I feel like God kids good or we get older. I feel like he's still a little kid But um, you play you post his videos all the time of him playing and he's so talented He's so talented. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he's pretty good. Be do it. He's definitely Take that away from him. That's for sure. I mean, he works as fail-off to He's so He's gonna make something of himself with that talent because he definitely it's not just, you know A lot of kids take the piano a lot of kids do but he literally has got a talent It's in his blood. It's in his his obvious obviously if he's listening to it Not being forced to too because a lot of kids are forced to listen to Mozart. So Um, he's got a love he's got a love for it. Yeah, that is um, you know, speaking of like the goddess Sarasata Swati You know, she's the goddess of Culture and of beauty and of music and all that I mean Sarasata Swati would fall under probably the umbrella of like Venus and an Aphrodite just Well, you know, whatever makes your heart sing whatever makes you come alive You know, whatever makes you get up in the morning and say yes You know, this this life is worth living. I mean that is that's what it's all about Yeah, and in this world where we take everything so seriously You know, I think we just have to to not Because that's another thing, you know with spirit in the spirit realm we tend to like take things way Way too seriously. Oh, yeah Like that is the I mean where the beauty lies is in those moments of grace when you've lit up. Yes Giving yourself a moment of breath or a moment of laughter That's when grace comes in right and beauty. Yes Well, Guruji Patabi Joyce apparently back in the day before he was swamped with students If he had a student that took it way too seriously He'd be like, oh no room when there was plenty of room Like he would turn them away and they learned to have a freaking sense of humor You know learn to laugh and that's and I always I joke with my students. There's um Used to be a vhs, but this teacher Richard Freeman who's one of the First to kind of bring traditional yogurt Yoga to the west and he has this like 90s video of him doing primary series and he's totally 90s The outfit the backdrop and he says You know in order to do a stronger yoga there are two things you need A sense of humor and the ability to laugh at yourself But it's really true like it is true and I think that's that's that's true for everything we do take ourselves way too seriously and um and Serious that that seriousness isn't pleasure And It isn't pleasure. So really isn't So yeah, lighten up Doesn't mean that you don't uh, you just you fall off your path. But just lighten up a little. Yeah, it'll be all right So it's okay It's fine. So all right, Cindy. This has been so so fun next week. Do you want to do more planets next week?
