We are entering a powerful energetic portal: a New Moon in Aquarius, an annular solar eclipse, the beginning of the Year of the Fire Horse, and a Week 7 numerology vibration centered around truth, introspection, and inner wisdom.
This is not surface-level manifestation.
This is radical alignment.
In this episode, we explore the spiritual meaning of the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse, the transformational energy of the Fire Horse year, and how the number 7 invites deep reflection, awakening, and authentic self-leadership.
If you’ve been feeling called to shed old identities, question your patterns, or realign your life and business with your higher truth, this episode will help you understand:
- What the Aquarius eclipse energy is activating collectively and personally
- The deeper symbolism of the Year of the Fire Horse
- Why Week 7 numerology brings truth, clarity, and spiritual recalibration
- How to move through this portal without bypassing or “high vibe” masking
- Practical ways to ground big energetic shifts into real change
This is about conscious evolution.
Nervous system regulation.
Identity shifts that actually stick.
If you’re on a manifestation, spirituality, or personal growth journey and ready for embodied transformation, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

Hey everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Pathless
Traveled. I'm Rachel McGowan.
And I'm Cara Sage. So today, if you're listening to
this in real time is February 17th and this is just not
another day on the calendar. We have a lot happening from an
astrological for sure perspective and as always, we
(00:23):
have a new numerology week, but we're going to get into all of
what is going on. So today is really a convergence
point. It's a cosmic, it's a spiritual
ignition. We are talking about the
beginning of the Chinese New Year of the Fire Horse, yay,
getting rid of the snake energy,a powerful new moon in Aquarius,
(00:47):
an eclipse portal today as well.And we are in a numerological
vibration Week 7 this week. So this is one of those rare
moments when astrology, ancient wisdom, and numerology are all
telling an interesting story. And that story is about fire,
(01:07):
awakening and radical alignment.So let's get into it.
Yes, Rachel, I'm so excited and I think so many people have been
looking forward to February 17th.
I think the main theme of this day is the fire horse energy.
So it is when the Chinese astrology calendar ticks out of
the snake energy and into the fire horse.
(01:28):
So each year has a specific animal as their Zodiac as well
as an element. So the horse has been paired
with fire. And as I always say, horses are
movement forward, they are momentum, but you have the fire
element and that really gives itthat spark.
Like when you think of a horse running, you know, fast and on
fire and towards something, right?
(01:50):
So if we've been in stagnation, if we've been in limbo, we've
been in that quiet, almost a hermit mode, shedding, shedding,
shedding. And we talk about the last
sheddings of the snake ramping up.
So ER visits go up. The Schumann resonance, you
know, ticks up and down. You know, people are
experiencing this on different levels.
Of course, I see lots of clientsand people have many, many
(02:11):
questions about what is actuallyhappening, what's what's coming
forward. So we are in a number one year
as we've talked about. And the fire horse is that feels
like a new beginning, feels likeit's coming out of stagnation.
It's asking us to align. So if you're not feeling that
fire quite yet, that's OK. And I like to always remind
people on a portal day or a special moment in time, you
(02:33):
don't have to feel high vibe, you don't have to feel it
instantly. It's not like, you know, the
clock ticks on February 17th andeverything's magical and fine.
This is the initiation point. This is the starting point that
you can get into that energy. So if you're still integrating,
your job is to align within, your job is to pay attention, be
present, allow it to be OK, and kind of move through that shift.
(02:56):
And that's really the best way to do it.
For some reason, Rachel, I know you're really into the numbers
and you're like a master at thisnumerology, but the Fire Horse
also reminds me of a #5 because it's that freedom change fast
move travel. So I kind of think of that
movement here with the Fire Horse as well.
But it's asking us to be ready. It's like you don't have to make
(03:20):
the horse go. The horse is going to go on its
own. You just have to be present and
available. And hopefully you've done your
work with the shedding of the stake to know what no longer
serves you and to kind of be in an alignment point to allow that
horse energy to propel you forward.
So that's definitely fast. And I think it's going to be
fun. I think it's going to be a fun
energy. Yeah, no, for sure.
(03:41):
And the last time we had a Fire Horse energy was in 1960, just
to give you kind of perspective of what we can maybe expect to
happen this year. the Cultural Revolution was happening in
China. The Vietnam War had escalated.
There was civil unrest in the civil rights movement in the
United States, and the space race intensified.
(04:04):
So the Fire Horse years are known for bold social shifts,
breakthrough leadership, dramatic personal awakenings and
unpredictable momentum. So just to give you a little
context of like, well, what did we experience the last time this
happened? A lot going on.
And we can kind of already feel that this year, I mean,
especially in the United States,there is a lot of unrest right
(04:27):
now. There's tension all over the
world world, and it'll be reallyinteresting to see now that
we've shifted into this new energy, what's going to come and
how quickly it's going to come now that we're in this new year.
Yeah, that, that's correct. And really to give people that
timeline and understanding at that moment and that's what was
going on. We can definitely feel things
(04:48):
ramping up. I believe in the world and
things have been for a while, you know, with the new moon
coming in Aquarius as well, Thatis such an interesting time
because Aquarius talks about more of the social, the
collective, it's innovative technology, it's communications,
it's all of that type. That air energy coming through.
(05:08):
Aquarius is an innovator, might be a little quirky, but they
move forward and they innovate things and they kind of like
shake things up, but in a more subtle way than a fire energy
because you've got that air. It's what air blows the fire.
When you think about tending a fire and you blow it a little,
you know, kind of get it to spark up.
So I like how the Aquarius kind of works with that fire and that
(05:31):
really does deal with innovation.
So at this moment in time, we can see that the world stage is
set to have some kind of big shifts.
And sometimes we can get in the mindset that all of that's going
to be negative, It's going to bewar, it's going to be chaos.
And some of those things could happen.
We don't know. But I do think that it's also
(05:52):
innovation in a good way. Things shifting to where they
need to be be a 10 hour moment. Something needed to level out in
order to be rebuilt on a better foundation.
So I think that the Aquarius andAir energy with that fire energy
of the horse coming through is really a pivotal moment of a
shake up and how those things work in tandem.
(06:15):
So yeah, it's interesting to know that 1966 was that big
moment last time. Yeah, definitely.
And like you said, you know, youmay not feel it right away, but
we know that there's that smoldering and that ignition
and, you know, literally that horse vibe of running out of the
gate. You know, you're kind of you're
(06:35):
kind of bouncing around and they're waiting for the gate to
open and push forward. That is really something to just
be ready for. And as you were talking about
Aquarius, you know, when you think about yourself, really
think about what future are you building?
Who are you becoming? Are there any outdated
identities you might want to release?
(06:56):
And you know, so this time mightnot be, you know, really
comfortable, but as you were saying, it's about that
collective evolution and how areyou going to be a part of that?
So it is the inner work of like who you are, but also how can
you be the person that is going to be involved in this outward
impact with the community as we are, you know, shifting and
(07:20):
there is probably more. Well, there is as there's more
community activism and a higher consciousness.
How are you going to be a part of that system as we move?
Forward and that's why we've been asked to go so far inward
and have these personal upheavals and shedding so much
over the last year and even 2 because it is preparing us to be
(07:41):
that person in society, to be that person in the collective.
So did we kind of get some of the cobwebs out of our own
personal stuff? And we're always going to still,
we have some stuff going on, of course, but now that we've
removed some of those big ones, we can get into the collective
space and kind of do that. And I love how you're saying
that this is a gateway portal because it really does feel like
(08:01):
a gateway, an initiation, you know, and that we've had to kind
of get into that space as we arerecording.
Today is Friday the 13th. So I'll explain how this is
relevant when you're watching onthe 17th.
This is a day that people have kind of marked like a 666, kind
of a negative evil day. Of course, this usually has to
(08:22):
do with repressing the divine feminine.
So today is actually a very lucky day.
It's a very auspicious, wonderful day to really get in
your feminine energy. That's kind of why I'm wearing
pink. That's kind of why I, you know,
like get into the feminine vibesbecause I really try to hone
into my own power during this time.
Even if you're watching this later, it doesn't have to be on
(08:43):
February 13th to realize that maybe there's been some power in
that time. And then it comes right before
the day of love, Valentine's Day.
And that does not have to be a Hallmark card, doesn't have to
be romantic love, but it's just a symbol of love that society
has created. You know, it's a day that man
and society has created as a dayof love.
(09:04):
But with the kind of getting into that feminine energy on the
13th and then pouring that love into yourself in whatever way
feels good, even if it's just dressing up, taking a salt bath,
connecting with some girlfriends, whatever it is for
you, connecting to that love andbringing that energy just a few
days later into the fire horse energy, I think is a beautiful
(09:25):
place to be. So this really is a gateway
time, and along with that feminine of energy come the
goddesses, and so many goddessesare there on the gateways in the
portals to kind of help us. So I think that goddess energy
is really present too, and I think a lot of people forget
that. So that's a really positive kind
of thing that we have in our corner, I'd say.
(09:46):
Yes, I love that. And you know who doesn't want to
connect with the goddesses? I'm in.
Of course I'm in. When you speak about portals, we
also have an eclipse. As if we need more things going
on right now, we've got an eclipse happening today.
So tell us about that. Well.
Eclipses are those big portals and it's this amplification,
(10:07):
right? This amplification energy.
So it always really there's a lot of shedding and creating.
So these can make big powerful shifts, so like sudden changes
in momentum, as if the horse energy is not creating enough
momentum in itself. Along with the aquarium is
innovation energy, but those eclipses really just amplify it.
I think that's the most important thing to know.
(10:28):
And as it amplifies, you know, there are sudden faded things
that can occur. Did conversation a faded meeting
something that's a sudden realization.
And I think that will solar is obviously sun, so it's powered
by the sun energy. So that also goes along with the
fire. So this is really just that,
like you said, the horse in the gate that's like ready to go.
(10:49):
It's just a little bit more of akick on that horse to get him
ready and a little bit more of that moment of an amplification
energy. That's I think, the most
important way that the Eclipse ties in, wouldn't you say?
Yeah, no, definitely. And I feel like every time we've
gone through an eclipse, it is. It's good to have the background
(11:11):
and the understanding so that when you're like, what is
happening right now that you arelike prepared for it because it
is a it is abrupt and like hidden truths can be revealed.
And like you said, this is even amplifying this like speed up
timeline that you know, you may or may not be ready for.
But if it is something that you wouldn't like to happen, it's
(11:35):
good to know that like, hey, this is a very supportive time
for these things to happen. So like, do whatever you need to
do to kind of prepare yourself for it and then expect the
unexpected. I'd say that's definitely a good
theme for what going through andyou don't have to know exactly
what it is. It's good to get clarity.
It's good to, you know, first understand kind of the direction
(11:57):
you want to go, but even if you don't know, just getting in the
space to allow that to come through you just getting into
even a neutral space or a calm space as much as possible and
just watch it happen. It's almost like sitting back in
the seat of our self and watching the emotions flow or
watching the drama play out before us while trying to be
removed from it. You're just kind of getting into
(12:19):
that space where you're going tobe be able to be flushed with
the current of the energies. And I think if we can do that,
that's at least the best thing. But getting some clarity, really
seeing what do you want to take forward into this year, right?
Like what is 1 new step that youcould take?
What is one thing to get you boldly out of your comfort zone?
(12:41):
And it could just be sending a text that you don't normally.
If you're not normally an initiator, maybe you send a
text, maybe you get a little bitmore vulnerable about something.
It's just like 1 little step that you can take to say energy.
I'm here for you, guide me now. And I think it's perfect that
this is a week 7 in numerology, which is all about that
(13:05):
introspection, tapping into the spiritual, the mystical, because
7 is the seeker. So it represents inner wisdom,
spiritual downloads, that solitude study revelation.
So to your point of we've got somuch fast energy that's that's
going to be happening whether itfeels immediate for you or it's
(13:27):
going to take maybe a week or a couple weeks or a month for that
to really shift for you. So like I was saying, this is
really a super important time and the energy this week is
supportive of that to make sure you're ready and you're very,
very clear about what it is thatyou want, how you are going to
(13:48):
be a part of the collective as we shift into this.
Because like we said, we've got our horse, we've got the
Aquarius community energy, and then we've got, you know, our
own personal goals that we want to achieve.
So while the Fire Horse energy is outward and bold and Aquarius
is collective and futuristic, the seven is what's pulling us
(14:09):
in. So this week, what I encourage
you to do is before you take anyleaps, check in with yourself.
Know yourself. Take that time to focus on you
before you speak, listen, and before you act a lot.
Because there's going to be a lot of massive outward change
that's going to be fueled by this deep inner clarity, which
(14:31):
is why we need to kind of spend this week to prep ourselves
before the unexpected. Yes, yes, get into that inner
love, get into that seat of the self, and kind of use that time
to go inward before that push outward.
Because anytime we do that work inside and clean up our side of
the street, that's just going tobe better for the collective and
(14:54):
it's going to help us flow better with the energy as
opposed to feeling like he's jarring us.
I love what you said about that.It might happen months later.
Sometimes in these pivotal moments, you don't feel anything
right away, but we can feel it building.
And then, you know, days, weeks,months later, we witnessed, wow,
that was a big shift or I didn'tknow that was coming or that's
(15:16):
what that energy was for. So definitely just being
prepared to receive and then be willing to take that aligned
action as things come up. So when that fire energy brings
something to you, shows you a new path, gives you a new
opportunity, then you're able totake that and go with that.
(15:37):
Because you know, if we sit on our couch and eat ice cream all
day, we're probably going to miss some opportunities, right?
So being aware of when that opportunity presents, then we
can move forward in that way. Right.
And I think what's important to note here is we're talking about
energy as a collective. You know, we're in a collective
year 1 collectively, we're in this fire horse energy.
(15:59):
Collectively we're experiencing a new moon and Aquarius.
But we all personally go throughour own theme for the year, our
own season for the year, which as we talked about in the past
is based on your birthday. So when you add up the day and
the month and then we're in a year one to one, that'll tell
(16:20):
you between the numbers 1 and nine, what your theme of the
year is. So, so every month, of course,
is a different theme as well. So what you were talking about
of like a couple months later could be when you're really
feeling this. So if you are in a different
theme for the year, So let's sayyou're in your year of
abundance, you're in your eight-year, but you're in a
(16:40):
month 7 this month of focusing on yourself and self-care.
But once you actually get to that eight-month energy that
aligns with your theme for the year, when that's kind of your
goal for the year and that's when your energy is most
supportive of stepping into thatpower and that success and that
abundance that you're looking for.
(17:01):
That's maybe when you might actually really feel that big
energy coming through and you'rejust kind of simmering or these
other months you're focusing on things that are kind of goals,
then your main theme and goal for the year.
And so I think you really have to be aware of that and just
lean into the energies that are and not feel like you're behind
(17:24):
because you're not or you're notright in line with everybody
else or you should be feeling one way or the OR another.
We're all on our own timeline here and living our own life and
just things may come at different times depending on
what season you're in. Because we have to get our own
decks in a row, we have to get our own puzzle pieces together.
(17:44):
And sometimes that quiet time really provides that together in
order to take that leap. If you're in and I am actually
in my 8 abundance years. So Rachel, we'll be, we'll be
discussing how that looks for meas we move forward.
But yes, I have personally felt in a little bit more of an
introspective time. I think I'm probably coming out
(18:05):
of that a little bit. But all of the work we're doing
under the surface is just going to hone that energy, Polish that
diamond and make it that much better.
So if you are just polishing your diamond at home and you're
taking a little bit of a break before that fire comes in and
you get those opportunities, remember, listen for opportunity
knocking and then feel within your body if that feels right
(18:25):
too. I think you they will feel
generally, if that is in alignment or not with what they
want to do, it'll be like a yes,let's go.
So pay attention because the universe will give you those
signs and synchronicities as this year moves on.
Yes. So you know some of the things
you might feel this week? Restlessness.
(18:47):
Strong urges to change directionneed to speak your truth.
Like you were saying, maybe you send that text, maybe you get
more vulnerable than you or havetypically been comfortable
doing. Heightened intuition.
I mean, new moons are the best time to manifest, so it's great
to tap into that energy. Sleep disruptions are vivid
dreams so common with eclipses, Emotional release, sudden
(19:10):
insight about your path. So as far as paying attention to
things as you are alluding to, look for repeating themes,
conversations that feel faded like you were talking about
earlier. Unexpected opportunities.
What falls away effortlessly because that eclipse energy is
removing resistance. The fire horse energy is
(19:30):
accelerating the movement like we've been saying, the Aquarius
energy is upgrading our identitybecause it's futuristic and
community focus. And then the seven energy is
clarifying the soul. So today what I'd, what we'd
love you to do is maybe do some of these really powerful rituals
(19:50):
or practices today to kind of help you hone in on this energy.
Write a freedom list. So what does freedom feel like
in your life financially, emotionally to?
Thank you. Emotional creatively set 1
Radical intention, not a safe goal, a brave one.
Release 1 Old identity who are are you no longer and burn the
(20:15):
paper safely. Fireworks loves a symbolic fire
ritual. Spend 17 minutes in silence.
This might feel hard but just find a really good meditative
playlist. 7 energy rewards, quiet reflection.
And finally connect with your community because Aquarius
thrives in a line circle. So these are just five little
(20:37):
ideas for the day. Don't have to do them all, but I
think maybe pick one or two thatresonates with you and just see
how it helps you to really shiftyour mindset and your energy.
That's with the support of energy that's already happening
today. Yeah, I mean, we are
regenerating and we are just seeing where those sparks are
(20:58):
coming up within us, seeing where we need to tend the flame
that's coming. Because of course, you know,
fires start small and then they really take off with that
energies, you know, however you want to tend that flame and
wherever you're at is really perfect.
But I love those ideas, Rachel. All of those are so amazing.
And they're really going to helppeople get to be in the aligned
(21:19):
state that they need to. And that's really all we're here
to do is saying, how can you best use these energies?
How can you best be aware of them and then internalize that
for your own self, personally? Yeah, well, I'm excited for all
that is to come. It is, it's going to be a crazy
year, hopefully not too chaotic,but hopefully, you know, a lot
(21:40):
of positive change to your point, you know, it doesn't mean
it's going to be bad. It can be very amazing and
empowering energy that is supporting the changes that are
going to happen. So it's going to be a lot better
than the snake energy because I think everybody is sick of.
(22:00):
Yeah, we're done with that. And this does feel happier, more
supportive, feels like finally out of those clutches, right?
I always say the villain clutches.
I feel like it's like the villains last throws when they
know they're down, it's like those last throws.
And I think that seeing it in that light is really helpful for
(22:22):
this new beginning, these revolutionary times.
And we're just going to buckle up and stick together like
aquariums and we're going to enjoy the ride because it's
going to be Sparks. It's going to be Sparks.
And I for one, cannot wait. Yeah, I can't wait to talk about
this at the end of the year and be like, wow, here's where we
(22:42):
put a year. Here's where.
Yeah. So buckle up, y'all.
It's going to be fun. It's going to be great.
Celebrate the new shift into this more sunshiny energy.
It feels like the clouds are lifting.
And like you said, it feels brighter.
It feels happier. It feels great.
So have a great week. Feel free to let us know how
(23:06):
things are going. If you have any questions, reach
out. But we appreciate you tuning in
and we hope that this is helpfuland gives you the context we
need to be able to move into therest of 26 ready to.
Absolutely. Yep.
We're going through it too, so we're all just going to align
and get ready to move. I'm excited.
(23:27):
Okay, well we'll see you next time on the path less traveled.
Have a good one. Bye.
Hey everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Pathless
Traveled. I'm Rachel McGowan.
And I'm Cara Sage. So today, if you're listening to
this in real time is February 17th and this is just not
another day on the calendar. We have a lot happening from an
astrological for sure perspective and as always, we
(00:23):
have a new numerology week, but we're going to get into all of
what is going on. So today is really a convergence
point. It's a cosmic, it's a spiritual
ignition. We are talking about the
beginning of the Chinese New Year of the Fire Horse, yay,
getting rid of the snake energy,a powerful new moon in Aquarius,
(00:47):
an eclipse portal today as well.And we are in a numerological
vibration Week 7 this week. So this is one of those rare
moments when astrology, ancient wisdom, and numerology are all
telling an interesting story. And that story is about fire,
(01:07):
awakening and radical alignment.So let's get into it.
Yes, Rachel, I'm so excited and I think so many people have been
looking forward to February 17th.
I think the main theme of this day is the fire horse energy.
So it is when the Chinese astrology calendar ticks out of
the snake energy and into the fire horse.
(01:28):
So each year has a specific animal as their Zodiac as well
as an element. So the horse has been paired
with fire. And as I always say, horses are
movement forward, they are momentum, but you have the fire
element and that really gives itthat spark.
Like when you think of a horse running, you know, fast and on
fire and towards something, right?
(01:50):
So if we've been in stagnation, if we've been in limbo, we've
been in that quiet, almost a hermit mode, shedding, shedding,
shedding. And we talk about the last
sheddings of the snake ramping up.
So ER visits go up. The Schumann resonance, you
know, ticks up and down. You know, people are
experiencing this on different levels.
Of course, I see lots of clientsand people have many, many
(02:11):
questions about what is actuallyhappening, what's what's coming
forward. So we are in a number one year
as we've talked about. And the fire horse is that feels
like a new beginning, feels likeit's coming out of stagnation.
It's asking us to align. So if you're not feeling that
fire quite yet, that's OK. And I like to always remind
people on a portal day or a special moment in time, you
(02:33):
don't have to feel high vibe, you don't have to feel it
instantly. It's not like, you know, the
clock ticks on February 17th andeverything's magical and fine.
This is the initiation point. This is the starting point that
you can get into that energy. So if you're still integrating,
your job is to align within, your job is to pay attention, be
present, allow it to be OK, and kind of move through that shift.
(02:56):
And that's really the best way to do it.
For some reason, Rachel, I know you're really into the numbers
and you're like a master at thisnumerology, but the Fire Horse
also reminds me of a #5 because it's that freedom change fast
move travel. So I kind of think of that
movement here with the Fire Horse as well.
But it's asking us to be ready. It's like you don't have to make
(03:20):
the horse go. The horse is going to go on its
own. You just have to be present and
available. And hopefully you've done your
work with the shedding of the stake to know what no longer
serves you and to kind of be in an alignment point to allow that
horse energy to propel you forward.
So that's definitely fast. And I think it's going to be
fun. I think it's going to be a fun
energy. Yeah, no, for sure.
(03:41):
And the last time we had a Fire Horse energy was in 1960, just
to give you kind of perspective of what we can maybe expect to
happen this year. the Cultural Revolution was happening in
China. The Vietnam War had escalated.
There was civil unrest in the civil rights movement in the
United States, and the space race intensified.
(04:04):
So the Fire Horse years are known for bold social shifts,
breakthrough leadership, dramatic personal awakenings and
unpredictable momentum. So just to give you a little
context of like, well, what did we experience the last time this
happened? A lot going on.
And we can kind of already feel that this year, I mean,
especially in the United States,there is a lot of unrest right
(04:27):
now. There's tension all over the
world world, and it'll be reallyinteresting to see now that
we've shifted into this new energy, what's going to come and
how quickly it's going to come now that we're in this new year.
Yeah, that, that's correct. And really to give people that
timeline and understanding at that moment and that's what was
going on. We can definitely feel things
(04:48):
ramping up. I believe in the world and
things have been for a while, you know, with the new moon
coming in Aquarius as well, Thatis such an interesting time
because Aquarius talks about more of the social, the
collective, it's innovative technology, it's communications,
it's all of that type. That air energy coming through.
(05:08):
Aquarius is an innovator, might be a little quirky, but they
move forward and they innovate things and they kind of like
shake things up, but in a more subtle way than a fire energy
because you've got that air. It's what air blows the fire.
When you think about tending a fire and you blow it a little,
you know, kind of get it to spark up.
So I like how the Aquarius kind of works with that fire and that
(05:31):
really does deal with innovation.
So at this moment in time, we can see that the world stage is
set to have some kind of big shifts.
And sometimes we can get in the mindset that all of that's going
to be negative, It's going to bewar, it's going to be chaos.
And some of those things could happen.
We don't know. But I do think that it's also
(05:52):
innovation in a good way. Things shifting to where they
need to be be a 10 hour moment. Something needed to level out in
order to be rebuilt on a better foundation.
So I think that the Aquarius andAir energy with that fire energy
of the horse coming through is really a pivotal moment of a
shake up and how those things work in tandem.
(06:15):
So yeah, it's interesting to know that 1966 was that big
moment last time. Yeah, definitely.
And like you said, you know, youmay not feel it right away, but
we know that there's that smoldering and that ignition
and, you know, literally that horse vibe of running out of the
gate. You know, you're kind of you're
(06:35):
kind of bouncing around and they're waiting for the gate to
open and push forward. That is really something to just
be ready for. And as you were talking about
Aquarius, you know, when you think about yourself, really
think about what future are you building?
Who are you becoming? Are there any outdated
identities you might want to release?
(06:56):
And you know, so this time mightnot be, you know, really
comfortable, but as you were saying, it's about that
collective evolution and how areyou going to be a part of that?
So it is the inner work of like who you are, but also how can
you be the person that is going to be involved in this outward
impact with the community as we are, you know, shifting and
(07:20):
there is probably more. Well, there is as there's more
community activism and a higher consciousness.
How are you going to be a part of that system as we move?
Forward and that's why we've been asked to go so far inward
and have these personal upheavals and shedding so much
over the last year and even 2 because it is preparing us to be
(07:41):
that person in society, to be that person in the collective.
So did we kind of get some of the cobwebs out of our own
personal stuff? And we're always going to still,
we have some stuff going on, of course, but now that we've
removed some of those big ones, we can get into the collective
space and kind of do that. And I love how you're saying
that this is a gateway portal because it really does feel like
(08:01):
a gateway, an initiation, you know, and that we've had to kind
of get into that space as we arerecording.
Today is Friday the 13th. So I'll explain how this is
relevant when you're watching onthe 17th.
This is a day that people have kind of marked like a 666, kind
of a negative evil day. Of course, this usually has to
(08:22):
do with repressing the divine feminine.
So today is actually a very lucky day.
It's a very auspicious, wonderful day to really get in
your feminine energy. That's kind of why I'm wearing
pink. That's kind of why I, you know,
like get into the feminine vibesbecause I really try to hone
into my own power during this time.
Even if you're watching this later, it doesn't have to be on
(08:43):
February 13th to realize that maybe there's been some power in
that time. And then it comes right before
the day of love, Valentine's Day.
And that does not have to be a Hallmark card, doesn't have to
be romantic love, but it's just a symbol of love that society
has created. You know, it's a day that man
and society has created as a dayof love.
(09:04):
But with the kind of getting into that feminine energy on the
13th and then pouring that love into yourself in whatever way
feels good, even if it's just dressing up, taking a salt bath,
connecting with some girlfriends, whatever it is for
you, connecting to that love andbringing that energy just a few
days later into the fire horse energy, I think is a beautiful
(09:25):
place to be. So this really is a gateway
time, and along with that feminine of energy come the
goddesses, and so many goddessesare there on the gateways in the
portals to kind of help us. So I think that goddess energy
is really present too, and I think a lot of people forget
that. So that's a really positive kind
of thing that we have in our corner, I'd say.
(09:46):
Yes, I love that. And you know who doesn't want to
connect with the goddesses? I'm in.
Of course I'm in. When you speak about portals, we
also have an eclipse. As if we need more things going
on right now, we've got an eclipse happening today.
So tell us about that. Well.
Eclipses are those big portals and it's this amplification,
(10:07):
right? This amplification energy.
So it always really there's a lot of shedding and creating.
So these can make big powerful shifts, so like sudden changes
in momentum, as if the horse energy is not creating enough
momentum in itself. Along with the aquarium is
innovation energy, but those eclipses really just amplify it.
I think that's the most important thing to know.
(10:28):
And as it amplifies, you know, there are sudden faded things
that can occur. Did conversation a faded meeting
something that's a sudden realization.
And I think that will solar is obviously sun, so it's powered
by the sun energy. So that also goes along with the
fire. So this is really just that,
like you said, the horse in the gate that's like ready to go.
(10:49):
It's just a little bit more of akick on that horse to get him
ready and a little bit more of that moment of an amplification
energy. That's I think, the most
important way that the Eclipse ties in, wouldn't you say?
Yeah, no, definitely. And I feel like every time we've
gone through an eclipse, it is. It's good to have the background
(11:11):
and the understanding so that when you're like, what is
happening right now that you arelike prepared for it because it
is a it is abrupt and like hidden truths can be revealed.
And like you said, this is even amplifying this like speed up
timeline that you know, you may or may not be ready for.
But if it is something that you wouldn't like to happen, it's
(11:35):
good to know that like, hey, this is a very supportive time
for these things to happen. So like, do whatever you need to
do to kind of prepare yourself for it and then expect the
unexpected. I'd say that's definitely a good
theme for what going through andyou don't have to know exactly
what it is. It's good to get clarity.
It's good to, you know, first understand kind of the direction
(11:57):
you want to go, but even if you don't know, just getting in the
space to allow that to come through you just getting into
even a neutral space or a calm space as much as possible and
just watch it happen. It's almost like sitting back in
the seat of our self and watching the emotions flow or
watching the drama play out before us while trying to be
removed from it. You're just kind of getting into
(12:19):
that space where you're going tobe be able to be flushed with
the current of the energies. And I think if we can do that,
that's at least the best thing. But getting some clarity, really
seeing what do you want to take forward into this year, right?
Like what is 1 new step that youcould take?
What is one thing to get you boldly out of your comfort zone?
(12:41):
And it could just be sending a text that you don't normally.
If you're not normally an initiator, maybe you send a
text, maybe you get a little bitmore vulnerable about something.
It's just like 1 little step that you can take to say energy.
I'm here for you, guide me now. And I think it's perfect that
this is a week 7 in numerology, which is all about that
(13:05):
introspection, tapping into the spiritual, the mystical, because
7 is the seeker. So it represents inner wisdom,
spiritual downloads, that solitude study revelation.
So to your point of we've got somuch fast energy that's that's
going to be happening whether itfeels immediate for you or it's
(13:27):
going to take maybe a week or a couple weeks or a month for that
to really shift for you. So like I was saying, this is
really a super important time and the energy this week is
supportive of that to make sure you're ready and you're very,
very clear about what it is thatyou want, how you are going to
(13:48):
be a part of the collective as we shift into this.
Because like we said, we've got our horse, we've got the
Aquarius community energy, and then we've got, you know, our
own personal goals that we want to achieve.
So while the Fire Horse energy is outward and bold and Aquarius
is collective and futuristic, the seven is what's pulling us
(14:09):
in. So this week, what I encourage
you to do is before you take anyleaps, check in with yourself.
Know yourself. Take that time to focus on you
before you speak, listen, and before you act a lot.
Because there's going to be a lot of massive outward change
that's going to be fueled by this deep inner clarity, which
(14:31):
is why we need to kind of spend this week to prep ourselves
before the unexpected. Yes, yes, get into that inner
love, get into that seat of the self, and kind of use that time
to go inward before that push outward.
Because anytime we do that work inside and clean up our side of
the street, that's just going tobe better for the collective and
(14:54):
it's going to help us flow better with the energy as
opposed to feeling like he's jarring us.
I love what you said about that.It might happen months later.
Sometimes in these pivotal moments, you don't feel anything
right away, but we can feel it building.
And then, you know, days, weeks,months later, we witnessed, wow,
that was a big shift or I didn'tknow that was coming or that's
(15:16):
what that energy was for. So definitely just being
prepared to receive and then be willing to take that aligned
action as things come up. So when that fire energy brings
something to you, shows you a new path, gives you a new
opportunity, then you're able totake that and go with that.
(15:37):
Because you know, if we sit on our couch and eat ice cream all
day, we're probably going to miss some opportunities, right?
So being aware of when that opportunity presents, then we
can move forward in that way. Right.
And I think what's important to note here is we're talking about
energy as a collective. You know, we're in a collective
year 1 collectively, we're in this fire horse energy.
(15:59):
Collectively we're experiencing a new moon and Aquarius.
But we all personally go throughour own theme for the year, our
own season for the year, which as we talked about in the past
is based on your birthday. So when you add up the day and
the month and then we're in a year one to one, that'll tell
(16:20):
you between the numbers 1 and nine, what your theme of the
year is. So, so every month, of course,
is a different theme as well. So what you were talking about
of like a couple months later could be when you're really
feeling this. So if you are in a different
theme for the year, So let's sayyou're in your year of
abundance, you're in your eight-year, but you're in a
(16:40):
month 7 this month of focusing on yourself and self-care.
But once you actually get to that eight-month energy that
aligns with your theme for the year, when that's kind of your
goal for the year and that's when your energy is most
supportive of stepping into thatpower and that success and that
abundance that you're looking for.
(17:01):
That's maybe when you might actually really feel that big
energy coming through and you'rejust kind of simmering or these
other months you're focusing on things that are kind of goals,
then your main theme and goal for the year.
And so I think you really have to be aware of that and just
lean into the energies that are and not feel like you're behind
(17:24):
because you're not or you're notright in line with everybody
else or you should be feeling one way or the OR another.
We're all on our own timeline here and living our own life and
just things may come at different times depending on
what season you're in. Because we have to get our own
decks in a row, we have to get our own puzzle pieces together.
(17:44):
And sometimes that quiet time really provides that together in
order to take that leap. If you're in and I am actually
in my 8 abundance years. So Rachel, we'll be, we'll be
discussing how that looks for meas we move forward.
But yes, I have personally felt in a little bit more of an
introspective time. I think I'm probably coming out
(18:05):
of that a little bit. But all of the work we're doing
under the surface is just going to hone that energy, Polish that
diamond and make it that much better.
So if you are just polishing your diamond at home and you're
taking a little bit of a break before that fire comes in and
you get those opportunities, remember, listen for opportunity
knocking and then feel within your body if that feels right
(18:25):
too. I think you they will feel
generally, if that is in alignment or not with what they
want to do, it'll be like a yes,let's go.
So pay attention because the universe will give you those
signs and synchronicities as this year moves on.
Yes. So you know some of the things
you might feel this week? Restlessness.
(18:47):
Strong urges to change directionneed to speak your truth.
Like you were saying, maybe you send that text, maybe you get
more vulnerable than you or havetypically been comfortable
doing. Heightened intuition.
I mean, new moons are the best time to manifest, so it's great
to tap into that energy. Sleep disruptions are vivid
dreams so common with eclipses, Emotional release, sudden
(19:10):
insight about your path. So as far as paying attention to
things as you are alluding to, look for repeating themes,
conversations that feel faded like you were talking about
earlier. Unexpected opportunities.
What falls away effortlessly because that eclipse energy is
removing resistance. The fire horse energy is
(19:30):
accelerating the movement like we've been saying, the Aquarius
energy is upgrading our identitybecause it's futuristic and
community focus. And then the seven energy is
clarifying the soul. So today what I'd, what we'd
love you to do is maybe do some of these really powerful rituals
(19:50):
or practices today to kind of help you hone in on this energy.
Write a freedom list. So what does freedom feel like
in your life financially, emotionally to?
Thank you. Emotional creatively set 1
Radical intention, not a safe goal, a brave one.
Release 1 Old identity who are are you no longer and burn the
(20:15):
paper safely. Fireworks loves a symbolic fire
ritual. Spend 17 minutes in silence.
This might feel hard but just find a really good meditative
playlist. 7 energy rewards, quiet reflection.
And finally connect with your community because Aquarius
thrives in a line circle. So these are just five little
(20:37):
ideas for the day. Don't have to do them all, but I
think maybe pick one or two thatresonates with you and just see
how it helps you to really shiftyour mindset and your energy.
That's with the support of energy that's already happening
today. Yeah, I mean, we are
regenerating and we are just seeing where those sparks are
(20:58):
coming up within us, seeing where we need to tend the flame
that's coming. Because of course, you know,
fires start small and then they really take off with that
energies, you know, however you want to tend that flame and
wherever you're at is really perfect.
But I love those ideas, Rachel. All of those are so amazing.
And they're really going to helppeople get to be in the aligned
(21:19):
state that they need to. And that's really all we're here
to do is saying, how can you best use these energies?
How can you best be aware of them and then internalize that
for your own self, personally? Yeah, well, I'm excited for all
that is to come. It is, it's going to be a crazy
year, hopefully not too chaotic,but hopefully, you know, a lot
(21:40):
of positive change to your point, you know, it doesn't mean
it's going to be bad. It can be very amazing and
empowering energy that is supporting the changes that are
going to happen. So it's going to be a lot better
than the snake energy because I think everybody is sick of.
(22:00):
Yeah, we're done with that. And this does feel happier, more
supportive, feels like finally out of those clutches, right?
I always say the villain clutches.
I feel like it's like the villains last throws when they
know they're down, it's like those last throws.
And I think that seeing it in that light is really helpful for
(22:22):
this new beginning, these revolutionary times.
And we're just going to buckle up and stick together like
aquariums and we're going to enjoy the ride because it's
going to be Sparks. It's going to be Sparks.
And I for one, cannot wait. Yeah, I can't wait to talk about
this at the end of the year and be like, wow, here's where we
(22:42):
put a year. Here's where.
Yeah. So buckle up, y'all.
It's going to be fun. It's going to be great.
Celebrate the new shift into this more sunshiny energy.
It feels like the clouds are lifting.
And like you said, it feels brighter.
It feels happier. It feels great.
So have a great week. Feel free to let us know how
(23:06):
things are going. If you have any questions, reach
out. But we appreciate you tuning in
and we hope that this is helpfuland gives you the context we
need to be able to move into therest of 26 ready to.
Absolutely. Yep.
We're going through it too, so we're all just going to align
and get ready to move. I'm excited.
(23:27):
Okay, well we'll see you next time on the path less traveled.
Have a good one. Bye.
