Speaker 2 (00:27):
Welcome to your astrological Energy. I'm your host, Carmen Turner's
Shot and this is a show about astrology, mental health, spirituality, energy,
all of these things. And every week I like to
give everyone the astrological update. And so for this week,

(00:48):
we are going to be talking about the week of
April nineteen through twenty five. And there's a lot of
things that have been going on on. We have a
lot of intense energy in the sky. So the one
positive thing is on April nineteen, the Sun will move

(01:12):
out of Aries into Taurus and that will be Sun
at zero degrees Turus starting the week on Sunday the nineteenth,
which is today. And this is an astrological shift because
we've been in this very impulsive, high energy Aries season

(01:35):
and I think Taurus, the Sun going into Taurus is
really gonna ground us, you know, It just makes me
want to take a deep breath and kind of let
it out. I don't know if you guys have been
feeling it, but that's the way I feel the past month.
It's just been a lot of planets are in aries,
and we're going to kind of talk about that, you know,

(01:57):
we have Last week was a very intense week with
all seven planets lining up into aries, and so this planet,
the Sun will be moving into tourists, which will give
us a little bit of a relief, but we still
have Saturn and Neptune, Mars has gone into aries, now,

(02:21):
Mercury and Aries. You know, all of these planets you know,
are in aries. We had a new moon in aries
last week. Mercury and Mars went into aries last week.
So we had a lot going on with the god
of war, you know, Aris, energy is fire, it's battle.

(02:45):
One thing I found, you know, very interesting is that
last week and even up until you know the end
of the week, is the Navy the United States has
is blocked the Straight of horm So there's a lot
of things going on in the world. Battle, war, standoffs, conflict,

(03:09):
and it's happening at sea, you know, and as we
know we've got Neptune in areas at Neptune is the
god of the sea. The ocean rules the water, so
you know, ships and navy and battles on water and
conflict and power struggles on water. We can kind of
see this happening. It's affecting the entire world. How these

(03:31):
ships will get through with oil and all kinds of
things going on. So that's the thing I love about
astrology is that we can see how astrology mirrors life
on Earth and how it reflects and how it impacts us.
And that's why I love to talk astrology to help
us understand the energy that we are experiencing on a

(03:55):
very basic practical level. So I want you know, you
don't have to be in a sh strologer to listen
to this show, but you can learn the basics. And
that's kind of why I'm here, is to teach the
basics and to help give tips on how this energy
affects us mentally, emotionally, physically, and it really we really

(04:17):
can see it play out in our day to day lives.
So so some good news is that Taurus energy is
all about comfort, physical comfort, security, material security, emotional security, stability, loyalty,
commitment and feeling like somebody really has your back. Is

(04:41):
kind of tourist energy. It's very practical and grounded energy.
This is a big shift of the sun out of areas,
So I think this is going to really help us
all really, you know, be deliberate and slow down a
little bit from the fast speed, kind of high energy tempo.

(05:02):
I think a lot of people, a lot of my
clients and my counseling practice that have been coming to
me lately, and in my astrology clients as well, they've
been sharing with me that they just feel like the
energy is affecting their nervous system, like they feel anxious,
they feel on edge, they feel triggered, you know, emotionally reacting,

(05:26):
acting out things like that. So there is a kind
of an electric energy going on in the world right now.
A big thing is Mars is in aries now and
it is conjunct Saturn on the nineteenth, and this can
be a heavy you know, it's like you want to

(05:46):
slow things down because Saturn wants to restrict and be
cautious and Saturn doesn't really like being in aries and
areas doesn't like a Saturn being in it because it's
wanting to slow things down and think that through and
wait and not act, and Aries wants to act. So
it's like you're hitting the brakes and the gas at

(06:07):
the same time. Kind of a transit. It makes us
really have to start having disciplined action. And we may
feel a little frustrated because we might have delays, but
this is a time to be endurance, to have endurance
and persistence and long term to get long term goals
and tasks done and accomplished, which is really cool. And

(06:31):
so this is a major shift. On Monday the twentieth,
we have Mercury conjunct Saturn in Mars. So we have
Mercury and Aries, Saturn and Aries, Mars and Aries, you know,
and we call this a triple threat. We have this
whole alignment in Aries and you know, the sun even

(06:51):
though it's in Taurus, our thoughts and words are in
you know, Mercury. How we communicate is moving fast. It's
in Aries. It's bold, it's blunt, it's straightforward, it's brutal.
It tells you the absolute truth, does not sugarcoat what
it wants to say. And that's how we're all going
to be feeling during this mercury and arias energy. So

(07:16):
and it's going to be intensified because it's it's conjunct Mars,
which is impulsivity and reaction and Saturn, which is discipline.
So the teacher is Saturn. So we may want to
teach someone tough lessons, tough love conversation, so to speak.
And so a lot can come up for us this

(07:36):
week in our relationships. So that's something just to be
aware of and just be careful, you know, how you're
communicating with your loved ones. You know, your your spouse
or your partner, your kids, your teenagers, your college students,
you know, just you know, heated arguments can can come up,
and there can be a lot of sharp tongues and

(07:58):
a little bit of irritability in the air. So what
how do you fight irritability? You know, when I'm around
someone that's irritable, I try to, you know, just be
calm and patient with them. And then you may just
need a little distance and a little bit of boundaries
with people and to protect your own energy, your own thoughts,

(08:21):
your own emotions, and and don't let people, you know,
don't take things personal, I guess is my tip for
the week. Things may be said that normally aren't said,
and they may be true. So you know, a good
example is, you know, I had somebody give me some feedback.

(08:43):
I had been I had to cancel some appointments, I
had been sick and you know, had a lot going on,
wasn't feeling my best. And you know, sometimes when I
re most of the time when I reschedule, people understand,
but it's it was last week when this energy was
really intense with all the stallium and areas going on,
and they seemed okay about rescheduling. Everything was fine. Then

(09:05):
all of a sudden, I got an email the next morning.
They were really angry and just set all this stuff,
and I'm like, whoa, whoa. And so I wrote them
and I'm like, you know, absolutely I can give you.
I'll give you a refund. Like if you don't want
to wait, you know, I don't want you. You know.
So we have a little bit of a disagreement. But
then deep down I knew that I needed to hear

(09:26):
what this person has had to email me. I needed
to hear I know that I need to be more organized,
and I know that people are you know, when people
wait to meet with me, I didn't even think that
it might be frustrating that if I have to reschedule
it could be frustrating for them, and and some different ideas,
and I'm like, no, thank you for being honest with

(09:47):
me about how you felt like I needed to hear this.
So sometimes that's what Ari's energy does, is it it's
true and we know it's true, and it can really
hit to the bone, it can come really really intensely
and strong and bluntly. But if we really take these

(10:09):
energies and lessons, we can really learn and grow from it.
And I guess that's what I want to share. So
even if there's arguments, even if there's conflict with loved ones,
where there's disagreements in relationships, just know that all of
it's happening to open our eyes and to grow. And
as long as we're growing and we're trying to make
our relationships better, that's the key. It's when we stop

(10:31):
trying to grow. But Aris wants growth and Aris wants action,
and Areas wants to see results, and so it is
not going to hold back. And so I say, we
just need to embrace all this energy right now and
also try not to take things so personal that's kind
of my tip for the week. On Tuesday the twenty third,

(10:54):
we have Jupiter and Sadder and are kind of, you know,
messing with each other a little bit. Jupiter is in
Cancer and Saturn is in Aries and and this can
really you know, expand some of our projects and some
of our goals and kind of give us a little
bit of a boost. It's definitely not a bad a

(11:15):
bad energy, but it's it's interesting because all of a sudden,
you know, we have Venus moving into Gemini on Friday
the twenty fourth, And and the thing about you know,
Venus and Gemini is that it's all about communication. And

(11:37):
so you know, it has been in Taurus, which has
been more steady, more protective, more grounded, more about you know,
luxury and and pleasure and affection and all these things
like that. But now it's getting ready to go into Gemini,
which is gonna make us a little bit restless, a

(11:57):
little bit like ready to socialize and flirt and have
fun and kind of quit worrying about you know, what
things cost and the security issues of love and relationships,
but more about how are we communicating, how are we
learning together, how are we growing where you're bored, you know,
Venus and Gemini is going to shake things up. Because

(12:20):
if you're bored and you're stagnant in your relationships, then
Venus going into Gemini this week is going to awaken
some of these energies and it may test you in
your relationships because it does not like to be bored,
and it gets a little bit distracted, It gets a

(12:41):
little bit unstable, it gets a little bit indecisive, and
so you may start questioning relationships and love and other
people and do they really care about me like I
do them? And and so there's really a tone of
of curiosity and communication and learning and needing variety, you know.

(13:06):
So it might be a good time to go out
with some friends. You know, if you're in a long
term marriage or relationship, you may want a little break
from your partner and want to meet up with an
old friend and go to dinner and socialize, or take
a class, learn something new, you know, go and be
more active, or go play a sport, you know, go
play tennis together, or go for a walk, go out

(13:26):
in nature, you know, doing something that is different than
the normal routine that you've been in. Because Taurus Taurus Venus.
The Venus and Torus energy that we're coming out of.
It likes routine and structure and saneness and predictability, and
hear Venus and Gemini. It's shocking us out of that.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
Now.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
It's like, Nope, we don't want to be bored. We
want excitement. And so you might feel a little bit
more friendly and social and all those things. So I
think it's really gonna help boost some of our relationships.
So I'm gonna take a short break, commercial break. I
just want to thank you for listening in to your
astrological energy. And we are here talking about the astrological

(14:13):
energy of April nineteen through twenty fifth, and I will

here on KMET. My name's Carmen Turner Shot, and I

(15:27):
am really excited to do this show and to connect
with everybody every week and share my love of astrology.
I love to talk about the different energies and the
different things that are impacting our daily lives because I
see it play out in my own life and with
my spouse and my daughter and my dog even and

(15:49):
my clients and my friends and my family, and I'm like, oh,
this is what's going on, you know. I love it
when my daughter writes me she's in college and she'll say, Mom,
you know what's going on? And can you look at
my chart? And you know she's her and her friends
are really getting more into astrology and learning about it,
and so I love sharing and giving her tips and

(16:11):
things to be you know, watchful of. Just like I
share with you guys on the show every week. I
do the same with those closest to me. And when
you're aware of these energies, it just tells you understand
yourself and others better and to have more patience. You know,
you know, we are not perfect, and we are impacted

(16:31):
by the astrological energy is going on. We're impacted by
other people. But I always say that, you know, the
only thing we can control is our reaction to things
and our thoughts. We can control what we think. We
can shift our thinking to be more positive, and we
can also really tap into all of these energies to

(16:54):
harness them and to use them in a positive way.
I mean, that is the key, and that's why what
I try to do when I see, Okay, wow, you
know I'm not feeling I'm not feeling so good you
know at times, you know, especially last week, And I
understood why because there's a stelium and aries, and I

(17:17):
have a lot of aries in my birth chart, and
all that aries energy is transiting my marriage house in
the eighth house, which is the house of death, rebirth,
and transformation in my personal astrology chart. So there's a
heaviness there. There's been a I've been tired, you know,
and I'm feeling not myself, And so it makes us

(17:40):
be a little bit easier on ourselves, makes us do
self care, helps us be more patient and calm and
loving to ourselves and others. And that's the key that
we need to not be so hard on ourselves and others.
You know, we all are being affected by these energies,
and sometimes it's easier for some people to handle these

(18:03):
energies than others, and then sometimes others have a hard time.
And so the biggest thing I'm excited about, I mean,
other than what we just came out of and what
we're going through with all this areas energy, which is
a time to get us moving and get us going,
is that we have a major astrological event happening this

(18:26):
week to end the week, and that is what I
call it's a generational shift. The planet Uranus, which is
the planet of unexpected change, shock revolution. It completely blind
sides us. It forces us to grow. It's non traditional,

(18:47):
it likes to shock, and it's genius energy. It's innovation,
it's sci fi. It's space travel, it's UFOs, it's living
on Mars, it's going to space. You know, all this
kind of energy. It's futuristic, it's AI, it's robots.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
You know.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
That kind of energy is the energy of the planet Uranus.
And Uranus is entering Gemini and it's going to be
there for a long time. It's going to be there
until twenty thirty three.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
Guys.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
So it goes into Gemini this week on April twenty fifth,
and it will be staying there until twenty thirty three.
This is huge, and the biggest thing to know is
that this will accelerate. The prediction is this will accelerate
how we share information, how we communicate as a species

(19:43):
as humanity, how we use technology, especially with AI, space travel,
any kind of travel is going to be revolutionized. So
there's a lot of exciting energy and things that this
new transit, which affects generations of people. This is a
huge transit. It affects all of us, and what that

(20:06):
will bring to the world. And there's several things that
happened last time the planet Uranus was in Gemini, and
I want to tell you about a few of those
on the show today. You know, this is a major
news cycle that is happening, okay, and we have to

(20:28):
be ready for this because the last time that Uranus
was in Gemini, we had World War Two, And if
you look back, every time Uranus was in Gemini, we
had a major battle or world event that happened. And

(20:49):
so everyone's been predicting, Okay, what's going to happen in
twenty you know, twenty twenty six when Uranus goes in
you know, the Gemini for good and we are in
a war right now. I'm hoping that it gets solved quickly.
But this is the energy that we've seen in historically

(21:13):
with the planet Uranus when it moved into the sign
of Gemini. This is a kind of a historic type
of a transit. The astrologers and scientists and historians, I mean,
we can look back in time and see these historic
events and how they match up with this energy. So

(21:33):
you know, buckle up everyone, you know, let's see what
plays out. There's gonna be a lot of innovation and
a lot. I think we're gonna have a lot of
fast growth with AI and how we work and how
we travel and how we teach and how we learn,
and I just think, you know, it's going to be
revolutionary kind of energy. It's going to be fast and
quick and could be a little bit restless and unexpected.

(21:58):
There could be shocking things happen and good and bad,
and so just hang in there and see how you
feel when you're ranus Is in Gemini. I think it'll
be a good thing for everyone. So I want to
just let everyone know if you're interested in booking a
consultation with me, you know, to really get into these energies.

I am available for consultations. You can visit my website
