Speaker 2 (00:27):
Welcome to your astrological Energy. I'm your host, Carmen Turner
Shot and this is a show about astrology, energy and spirituality.
Every week I'm here to talk about the astrological forecast
for each day each week, and this week we're going
to be looking at July twelve through July eighteen, July
(00:53):
twelfth through July eighteen, twenty twenty six. So today is Sunday,
July twelfth, and we we have lots of energy going
on in the sky right now. One of the big
things happening today is that we still have Mercury retrograde,
which I know we've been talking about each week. And
(01:14):
for those that are new to the show and listening
for the first time, welcome, And Mercury is the planet
of communication. It's the planet the messenger of the gods.
So it's all about how we think, how we write,
how we communicate, how we process information, travel, It affects computers, technology,
(01:36):
all of those things. So when Mercury's retrograde, we often
feel that things are delayed, things get mixed up, there
can be more miscommunication, all kinds of things that go
crazy during Mercury retrograde. And I was venting about this
last Sunday on the show, and I'll tell you this
(01:57):
past week, it has been one thing after the other
with technology issues, zoom, appointment times, getting mixed up, all
kinds of things. I've been having to reassess and re
redo things and things from the past that I thought
(02:18):
were over have come back again and resurfaced. I've had
some people from the past contact me, just old friends,
people haven't heard from in a while, wanted to catch up.
All those kind of things happen during Mercury retrograde. So
if you're having you know that happened someone out of
the blue, you haven't heard from in month's text and
says they miss you, want to go to dinner, or
an old friend whatever that could be why And it's
(02:42):
just the time to reflect and reanalyze and re examine
things in our life that we've already been through and
to really pick and choose where we put our energy.
And that's kind of the message for this week that
I'm going to share with everyone is just really think
(03:05):
about how you can conserve your energy. Conserve our energy.
What does that mean? Well, we're super busy. So many
people tell me just how busy they are with work
and life and family responsibilities and everything, and that they're
just it's just been a lot and they haven't been
(03:26):
feeling physically very well. A lot of people are feeling tired,
they are not motivated, they're having a hard time focusing
getting things done. They just feel like they need to rest.
They're just not their normal energy. And so it's like
more and more is being asked of us right now.
(03:49):
This is kind of the pattern that I'm seeing with
my clients and with my strategy students and clients and
astrology as well and family friends, is that these nodes
of the moon on July twelfth, they're the South node
and the north nodes are still in Virgo and Gemini.
And this is a big deal because they're all about
(04:13):
health and wellness. The good news is they're gonna be
shifting out of there very very soon, and they're gonna
be They're gonna be going into Leo and Aquarius. I
think once that happens, we're gonna feel a lot better.
But today, right now, they're still in Virgo and Pisces,
and so we are, and we're being asked to really
(04:34):
learn how to conserve our energy, being able to say no,
being able to protect our boundaries, being able to protect
our peace of mind. You know, I had to do
that a couple of times this week. People had texted
me they wanted to talk. I had been back to
back doing counseling sessions all day long, doing some astrology charts,
and I just didn't feel like talking because when mercury's
(04:56):
are retrograde, I kind of get more introverted and I
need more time to rest and just kind of unwind
and veg out. And so it's just been a really
hard time for me because I'm not my normal talkative,
self friendly self. I'm a little bit more withdrawn and reflective,
and that's kind of how mercury retrograde affects me. Also,
(05:16):
we're all kind of feeling maybe more reflective, more introverted,
more private right now, more sensitive our energy can be
easily depleted right now because the sun is in cancer,
and cancer is a water sign, and water signs are
very sensitive to other people's energy, other people's emotions, other
people's thoughts, and so I think all of us are
(05:38):
kind of feeling that energy, of that cancer energy that's
really putting a lot of pressure on us. It's just
really making us feel a need to be home, a
need to rest and need you know a little bit,
you know, want and comfort and security and maybe even
want to take naps more, even if you're not someone
(05:59):
that usually takes a nap. People have been telling me
they're just tired and they're laying down and going to sleep.
I've had several appointments scheduled this past week where the
people didn't show up on Zoom and come to find out,
they were panicking and they told me they fell asleep
and slept through their appointment and completely didn't wake up. So,
(06:21):
you know, people are just telling me how exhausted they are,
and they're using that word exhausted. So I think some
of it is these nodes the it's the nodes of
the moon and Pisces and Virgo, and it's cancer sun.
It makes us more intuitive but also more vulnerable and
more easily drained because we just you know, we were
(06:45):
more focused on and worried about our family, our friends
are those closest to us, because cancer rules the home
and family, and it's just a really big deal right
now that we need to reflect and turn in where
and spend some time resting at home. It's okay we
may not be as social. But the other good thing
(07:06):
going on right now is that in the sky today,
on the July twelfth, we have the moon and Gemini
right now and Mars and Gemini and your ranness in Gemini.
So Gemini energy gives us all. It's more mental energy,
it's communicative, it's restless. So people are feeling a little
bit want to be home, feeling a little bit restless,
(07:29):
maybe procrastinating a little bit, and like, I know, I
need to get things done. I have so many things,
and then getting overwhelmed, but not having the energy to
actually do it and take action on things. So we're
kind of in this stalemate where we're torn. Maybe one
day we're feeling like a spurt of energy, then we're
we'd go for about ten thirty minutes and then we're
(07:51):
just exhausted. We just want to sit and lay and
do nothing. So just be easy on yourself and just
implement self care and know that a lot of these
energies are affecting all of us. And even if you
know you don't really believe in astrology, maybe you're you know,
you're open to it. You're starting to notice these energies
(08:13):
that I talk about each week. You know, it really
is a science. It really is energy. It's just a
tool of self awareness that can help you understand yourself
and others better. And how the planets and how things
going on the sky are affecting life on Earth, which
is what astrology is. And I've been studying it for
(08:34):
thirty years and I've seen how amazing it is and
how it validates. You know, I believe astrology is is
God's plan, you know, I believe God created we know,
you know, the heavens and the Earth and all of
the stars and the sky and the planets. So it's
part of the great design. And just like the full
moon affects the tides of the ocean, we're made mostly
(08:56):
of water, our body is, and so as our pets,
you know, our pets are affected by the full moon.
All of us are affected by by the full moon,
and it's just something you know, to think about day
to day. A big thing happening today that you may
hear about online and on Instagram and stuff like that,
(09:16):
is that mercury is retrograde in cancer. And because the
Sun is also in cancer, and when when mercury specifically
is in really really close aspect to the Sun, we
call this what's called a kazimi. And I know I've
talked about this on the show before. It means that
(09:39):
the Sun and the planet mercury are completely conjunct in
the sky right now, like they're they're one with each other.
And that means that the hot Sun's rays are kind
of burning, uh, intensifying the planet Mercury, making it you know, uh,
(10:00):
just intensifying that energy is the way I like to explain.
And and we call that a kazimi uh c A z
I m I. And this is a highly just a
really you know, really intense time right now because we
also have a new moon coming up this week, which
(10:22):
is you know, really important, and because new moons are
all about manifesting what we want and and you know,
really trying to manifest our goals and dreams and everything.
And so the new moon is in cancer, and so
we're going to have the sun. The sun is still
(10:43):
in cancer today. Mercuris conjunct the sun. It's at Kazimi.
They're both at twenty degrees cancer today. And that's a
very pivotal placement. Were called a transit where we can
gain deep emotional clarity, we could have intuitive insight, and
we can also have a lot of change in healing
(11:05):
and kind of a clean slate with family and living situations.
So if you've been struggling with things with your family,
things on the home front, this is a really good
time to finally forgive and move forward and maybe even
let go of the past a little bit and build
(11:27):
those relationships back with your family and those closest to you.
So the Kazini's not all bad. It can intensify the
cancer energy though. And you know today the moon is
in Gemini. But as we talked about on the fourteenth
of July, which is going to be Wednesday, believe that
(11:50):
is a Wednesday. We are gonna know this Tuesday, the
fourteenth is a Tuesday. We are going to have a
new moon in cancer. And whenever there's a new a
new Moon. This this kazemi is what astrologers are talking about,
that this kazimi of mercury and cancer is going to
(12:10):
really help us get real clear on what our hopes, wishes, dreams,
and goals are for the new moon to manifest and
create our affirmations and intentions of what we want to
bring into our life. And that's kind of what a
new moon means in astrology and how what what it
means to me. It's just an energy and new energy
(12:33):
that we can tap into. And so you know, you know,
just mercury retrograde on the Sun, it's just going to
bring a lot of past issues and home life issues
to the forefront. It's going to help us focus more
on emotional security. So the new moon is also going
to do that. It's gonna it's going to really be
a powerful emotional reset. It's going to help us start
(12:57):
fresh in our living situation and things we do for
emotional boundaries to protect our energy. And I think that's
why this week to me, I really call it the
week of conserving our energy, conserving how much energy we
give away to other people. And I think that's what
was on my mind as the energy and reminder of
(13:21):
the week is that you don't have to give your
energy away to everyone. Not everyone deserves or appreciates what
we give and what our energy is. And that's something
that I've had to learn to be able to say
no and not feel guilty about that, or just be
able to set boundaries and set strict protection in my
(13:46):
life where you know what, I'm not answering the phone
tonight because I am exhausted and I don't feel good,
and I'm gonna go ahead and let them know I
can't talk. It's okay. That's conserving energy, or you know,
knowing if you have a really busy week coming, knowing
you need to, you know, maybe go to bed a
little earlier, get some extra sleep, sleep in, don't you know,
(14:08):
don't put yourself in stressful situations if there's people in
your life that bring you down or that zap you,
or that are negative. Learning how to conserve your energy
is learning how to distance yourself and maybe not spend
time with certain people or talking to them right now
(14:28):
until you feel better, until you're you know, I call
it the the love tank or the energy tank. When
the energy tank is empty, we can't give to others
from an empty cup. It's all about self care, guys,
with this cancer energy going on this week, so nurture yourself.
Cancer season is all about mothering, nurturing, taking care of
(14:52):
our own needs, but also taking care of things on
the home front. And if things at home aren't going well,
then it's gonna be hard for us to go out
in the real world and go out into our career
and work and deal with the everyday life if things
at home are not stable and things at home, if
we're not putting enough energy into what really matters, which
(15:15):
is really our family and those that love us and
those that we care about. So just think about appreciating
your parents, your kids, your spouse, your significant others, your friends,
those that you call family and cherishing them. It's a
good week to do that, in a good week to
conserve our energy. I will be right back. We're going

If you hear this show, use code ten underscore off
and go on my website Carmen turnershot dot com and
(16:39):
book a consultation with me today. Welcome back to your
astrological energy. I'm Carmen, and we have been talking about
the astrological forecast of July twelfth through eighteen. We have
a big week with cancer, sun and mercury at Kazimi
on the twelfth Sunday, and then on Monday, July thirteen,
(17:03):
we have Venus square Uranus, which is just a transit
of sudden changes, unpredictable situations and things in relationships can happen,
and just you know, it's just a good time to
proceed with caution and don't do anything too impulsive financially
or in your romantic choices. Just slow down a little
(17:26):
bit and think things through. You know, this is also
the full moon or the new moon and cancer on
July fourteen, and we talked about you know, a new
moon is a good time to set intentions, think about
what we really want in our life, valuing our solitude
and our time at home. You know, you might feel
(17:48):
more connected at home and want to do big projects.
I know we're going to be fixing up a bathroom
in our house, and I have a lot of things,
a whole list of things that I need to do
around the house that I'm wanting to get done. So
I can feel the shift in my energy where I'm
usually not really big into the yard work or doing
anything with my house, and now I'm like all about
(18:11):
it and I'm making list. I'm like, oh, yeah, this
is how strology is affecting us. Yeah, it makes sense.
I've been telling everyone, so I'm feeling it in my
own life. This comfortable, cozy cancer vibe and just trust
your intuition right now, guys, and be able to put
up that crab shell. You know, cancer symbol is the crab,
(18:32):
and it has a soft interior, very sensitive, intuitive, psychic, empathic,
emotional and sensitive. They can get their films turn easily.
We may all be feeling a little bit more easily hurt.
So being able to utilize those boundaries. Conserving our energy
by putting up that crab shell is a visual I'd
(18:56):
like to give you. Just see a shell around yourself
and seeing nope, I'm going to conserve my energy and
I'm gonna keep it inside myself and until I feel better.
And really focus on your health and wellness right now, guys.
Make sure you're eating right, getting enough sleep, taking care
of work life balance. That's a big one. A lot
of people are telling me they're burned out, they've got
(19:19):
compassion fatigue, they're overworked, they're looking for other jobs because
they don't feel valued at work. These are the kind
of themes I'm hearing in my counseling practice. And I've
been feeling I'm really tired myself. I've been feeling like
I've taken on a little too much, and I just
feel like I never get caught up on my work stuff.
(19:41):
So it's always something I need to do or get done,
and it's just a very busy time. And sometimes mercury
retrograde can make that even more evident because it has
to do with you know, Virgo and Gemini energy, which
is you know, always always doing something, always having something
(20:01):
to you know, tasks that like to be done, and
so it's just a really busy time and there can
be it's harder to focus when mercury's retrograde, so you
may feel a little not as sharp as you usually are.
So that that's very common. So tap in and enjoy
this week of cancer energy and this new moon energy
(20:23):
that you that we're going to have to really you know,
set your intentions, think positive, set some good affirmations of
things you want. Okay, guys. One of the other big
things going on you know this week is is really
just you know, on the eighteenth, we have you know,
(20:46):
a big transit which we call uranis Pluto trine and
this is pretty interesting. On the eighteenth, which is coming
up this week. The next week is this day features
I've major uranus pluto trines over the next two years.
This is a pretty big deal. This kicks off the
first one, and it's a it kicks it off. There's
(21:09):
a feeling of transformation, a social shift, and a lot
of you know, they're predicting a lot of innovation, technological innovation,
you know, AI, robots, all this stuff. I was listening
to a podcast or saw something online about how in
five years there's gonna be over like one hundred thousand
(21:32):
robots or something. I'm like, wow, and they're saying that,
you know, eventually we'll have robots in our houses that
will clean and do all kinds of stuff and cook
and do dishes, and you know, we'll see we're in
the age of Aquarius, as we say, Pluto's and Aquarius,
Uranus and Gemini. There's been a lot of major astrological
(21:53):
shifts and transits the past couple of years that have
been historic, historic things that we have never seen before.
So it's been you know, we're living during a very
transformative time and astrology and astrologers really have never seen
some of the things that we're seeing right now play
(22:13):
out in the sky. It's a very interesting historic time.
Another thing going on just remind everybody is that Neptune.
We talked about this last week that Neptune went retrograde
in Aries, and so when the planet goes retrograde, that
means that that planet is kind of turned inward and
it's going to bring up a lot of issues from
(22:35):
the past, and so it's going to be a reflective time.
Maybe you know, we were taking action on our goals,
wishes and dreams, but now we may feel like we're
stuck or thwarted and not moving forward like we were.
We may feel a little bit lost, a little bit
illusion and dreamy. Just know it will pass. This is
(22:56):
just Neptune and Aries is retrograde, and it's going to
be kind of delaying things for us a little bit. Guys.
So I just want to thank you for listening to
the show. I know it goes so fast as I'm talking,
but you know, tap into this cancer energy this week
and make your list, set your intentions, think positively, you know,
(23:21):
write down you know things that you want you know
and and use the power of your positive thinking to manifest.
You know, it's about believing and knowing, which is one
of the universal laws of the universe, is believing and
knowing that we can have what we want and that
we deserve it, and to believe in in the power
(23:42):
of positive thinking can really help us manifest those things
we want. So write down two or three goals and
glide a candle, light some incense, say some prayers and
on that new moon and cancer on the fourteenth Tuesday
this week, I wish you guys an amazing week. And
you know, as we get into the end of the week,
the moon will go into Leo, so we'll be having fun,
(24:05):
do something social, do your hobbies, and then by the
end of the week it'll be in Virgo. On Friday,
the seventeenth and the eighteenth, you'll be ready to get
some things done and get organized before the weekend. So everybody,
thank you for listening in. And if you're interested, you
can buy my book Your Astrological Energy and Sun Science,
(24:26):
Houses and Healing are out there on Barnes and normal
Amazon if you want to learn the basics. It's very
easy to beginner's guide to read and it explains everything
in a very basic Hanson way. So I appreciate your
support and come and join me next Sunday here on

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Welcome to your astrological Energy. I'm your host, Carmen Turner
Shot and this is a show about astrology, energy and spirituality.
Every week I'm here to talk about the astrological forecast
for each day each week, and this week we're going
to be looking at July twelve through July eighteen, July
(00:53):
twelfth through July eighteen, twenty twenty six. So today is Sunday,
July twelfth, and we we have lots of energy going
on in the sky right now. One of the big
things happening today is that we still have Mercury retrograde,
which I know we've been talking about each week. And
(01:14):
for those that are new to the show and listening
for the first time, welcome, And Mercury is the planet
of communication. It's the planet the messenger of the gods.
So it's all about how we think, how we write,
how we communicate, how we process information, travel, It affects computers, technology,
(01:36):
all of those things. So when Mercury's retrograde, we often
feel that things are delayed, things get mixed up, there
can be more miscommunication, all kinds of things that go
crazy during Mercury retrograde. And I was venting about this
last Sunday on the show, and I'll tell you this

some people from the past contact me, just old friends,
people haven't heard from in a while, wanted to catch up.
All those kind of things happen during Mercury retrograde. So
if you're having you know that happened someone out of
the blue, you haven't heard from in month's text and
says they miss you, want to go to dinner, or
an old friend whatever that could be why And it's
(02:42):
just the time to reflect and reanalyze and re examine
things in our life that we've already been through and
to really pick and choose where we put our energy.
And that's kind of the message for this week that
I'm going to share with everyone is just really think
(03:05):
about how you can conserve your energy. Conserve our energy.
What does that mean? Well, we're super busy. So many
people tell me just how busy they are with work

they are not motivated, they're having a hard time focusing
getting things done. They just feel like they need to rest.
They're just not their normal energy. And so it's like
more and more is being asked of us right now.
(03:49):
This is kind of the pattern that I'm seeing with
my clients and with my strategy students and clients and
astrology as well and family friends, is that these nodes
of the moon on July twelfth, they're the South node
and the north nodes are still in Virgo and Gemini.
And this is a big deal because they're all about
(04:13):
health and wellness. The good news is they're gonna be
shifting out of there very very soon, and they're gonna
be They're gonna be going into Leo and Aquarius. I
think once that happens, we're gonna feel a lot better.
But today, right now, they're still in Virgo and Pisces,
and so we are, and we're being asked to really
(04:34):
learn how to conserve our energy, being able to say no,
being able to protect our boundaries, being able to protect

(05:38):
kind of feeling that energy, of that cancer energy that's
really putting a lot of pressure on us. It's just
really making us feel a need to be home, a
need to rest and need you know a little bit,
you know, want and comfort and security and maybe even
want to take naps more, even if you're not someone
(05:59):
that usually takes a nap. People have been telling me
they're just tired and they're laying down and going to sleep.
I've had several appointments scheduled this past week where the
people didn't show up on Zoom and come to find out,
they were panicking and they told me they fell asleep

(06:21):
you know, people are just telling me how exhausted they are,
and they're using that word exhausted. So I think some
of it is these nodes the it's the nodes of
the moon and Pisces and Virgo, and it's cancer sun.
It makes us more intuitive but also more vulnerable and
more easily drained because we just you know, we were
(06:45):
more focused on and worried about our family, our friends
are those closest to us, because cancer rules the home

kind of in this stalemate where we're torn. Maybe one
day we're feeling like a spurt of energy, then we're
we'd go for about ten thirty minutes and then we're
(07:51):
just exhausted. We just want to sit and lay and
do nothing. So just be easy on yourself and just
implement self care and know that a lot of these
energies are affecting all of us. And even if you
know you don't really believe in astrology, maybe you're you know,
you're open to it. You're starting to notice these energies
(08:13):
that I talk about each week. You know, it really
is a science. It really is energy. It's just a
tool of self awareness that can help you understand yourself
and others better. And how the planets and how things
going on the sky are affecting life on Earth, which
is what astrology is. And I've been studying it for
(08:34):
thirty years and I've seen how amazing it is and
how it validates. You know, I believe astrology is is
God's plan, you know, I believe God created we know,
you know, the heavens and the Earth and all of
the stars and the sky and the planets. So it's
part of the great design. And just like the full
moon affects the tides of the ocean, we're made mostly
(08:56):
of water, our body is, and so as our pets,
you know, our pets are affected by the full moon.
All of us are affected by by the full moon,
and it's just something you know, to think about day
to day. A big thing happening today that you may
hear about online and on Instagram and stuff like that,
(09:16):
is that mercury is retrograde in cancer. And because the
Sun is also in cancer, and when when mercury specifically
is in really really close aspect to the Sun, we
call this what's called a kazimi. And I know I've
talked about this on the show before. It means that
(09:39):
the Sun and the planet mercury are completely conjunct in
the sky right now, like they're they're one with each other.
And that means that the hot Sun's rays are kind
of burning, uh, intensifying the planet Mercury, making it you know, uh,
(10:00):
just intensifying that energy is the way I like to explain.
And and we call that a kazimi uh c A z
I m I. And this is a highly just a
really you know, really intense time right now because we
also have a new moon coming up this week, which
(10:22):
is you know, really important, and because new moons are
all about manifesting what we want and and you know,
really trying to manifest our goals and dreams and everything.
And so the new moon is in cancer, and so
we're going to have the sun. The sun is still
(10:43):
in cancer today. Mercuris conjunct the sun. It's at Kazimi.
They're both at twenty degrees cancer today. And that's a
very pivotal placement. Were called a transit where we can
gain deep emotional clarity, we could have intuitive insight, and
we can also have a lot of change in healing
(11:05):
and kind of a clean slate with family and living situations.
So if you've been struggling with things with your family,
things on the home front, this is a really good
time to finally forgive and move forward and maybe even
let go of the past a little bit and build
(11:27):
those relationships back with your family and those closest to you.
So the Kazini's not all bad. It can intensify the
cancer energy though. And you know today the moon is
in Gemini. But as we talked about on the fourteenth
of July, which is going to be Wednesday, believe that
(11:50):
is a Wednesday. We are gonna know this Tuesday, the
fourteenth is a Tuesday. We are going to have a
new moon in cancer. And whenever there's a new a
new Moon. This this kazemi is what astrologers are talking about,
that this kazimi of mercury and cancer is going to
(12:10):
really help us get real clear on what our hopes, wishes, dreams,
and goals are for the new moon to manifest and
create our affirmations and intentions of what we want to
bring into our life. And that's kind of what a
new moon means in astrology and how what what it
means to me. It's just an energy and new energy
(12:33):
that we can tap into. And so you know, you know,
just mercury retrograde on the Sun, it's just going to
bring a lot of past issues and home life issues
to the forefront. It's going to help us focus more
on emotional security. So the new moon is also going
to do that. It's gonna it's going to really be
a powerful emotional reset. It's going to help us start
(12:57):
fresh in our living situation and things we do for
emotional boundaries to protect our energy. And I think that's
why this week to me, I really call it the
week of conserving our energy, conserving how much energy we
give away to other people. And I think that's what
was on my mind as the energy and reminder of
(13:21):
the week is that you don't have to give your
energy away to everyone. Not everyone deserves or appreciates what
we give and what our energy is. And that's something
that I've had to learn to be able to say
no and not feel guilty about that, or just be
able to set boundaries and set strict protection in my
(13:46):
life where you know what, I'm not answering the phone
tonight because I am exhausted and I don't feel good,
and I'm gonna go ahead and let them know I
can't talk. It's okay. That's conserving energy, or you know,
knowing if you have a really busy week coming, knowing
you need to, you know, maybe go to bed a
little earlier, get some extra sleep, sleep in, don't you know,
(14:08):
don't put yourself in stressful situations if there's people in
your life that bring you down or that zap you,
or that are negative. Learning how to conserve your energy
is learning how to distance yourself and maybe not spend
time with certain people or talking to them right now
(14:28):
until you feel better, until you're you know, I call
it the the love tank or the energy tank. When
the energy tank is empty, we can't give to others
from an empty cup. It's all about self care, guys,
with this cancer energy going on this week, so nurture yourself.
Cancer season is all about mothering, nurturing, taking care of
(14:52):
our own needs, but also taking care of things on
the home front. And if things at home aren't going well,
then it's gonna be hard for us to go out
in the real world and go out into our career
and work and deal with the everyday life if things
at home are not stable and things at home, if
we're not putting enough energy into what really matters, which
(15:15):
is really our family and those that love us and
those that we care about. So just think about appreciating
your parents, your kids, your spouse, your significant others, your friends,
those that you call family and cherishing them. It's a
good week to do that, in a good week to
conserve our energy. I will be right back. We're going

If you hear this show, use code ten underscore off
and go on my website Carmen turnershot dot com and
(16:39):
book a consultation with me today. Welcome back to your
astrological energy. I'm Carmen, and we have been talking about
the astrological forecast of July twelfth through eighteen. We have
a big week with cancer, sun and mercury at Kazimi
on the twelfth Sunday, and then on Monday, July thirteen,
(17:03):
we have Venus square Uranus, which is just a transit
of sudden changes, unpredictable situations and things in relationships can happen,
and just you know, it's just a good time to
proceed with caution and don't do anything too impulsive financially
or in your romantic choices. Just slow down a little
(17:26):
bit and think things through. You know, this is also
the full moon or the new moon and cancer on
July fourteen, and we talked about you know, a new
moon is a good time to set intentions, think about
what we really want in our life, valuing our solitude
and our time at home. You know, you might feel
(17:48):
more connected at home and want to do big projects.
I know we're going to be fixing up a bathroom
in our house, and I have a lot of things,
a whole list of things that I need to do
around the house that I'm wanting to get done. So
I can feel the shift in my energy where I'm
usually not really big into the yard work or doing
anything with my house, and now I'm like all about
(18:11):
it and I'm making list. I'm like, oh, yeah, this
is how strology is affecting us. Yeah, it makes sense.
I've been telling everyone, so I'm feeling it in my
own life. This comfortable, cozy cancer vibe and just trust
your intuition right now, guys, and be able to put
up that crab shell. You know, cancer symbol is the crab,
(18:32):
and it has a soft interior, very sensitive, intuitive, psychic, empathic,
emotional and sensitive. They can get their films turn easily.
We may all be feeling a little bit more easily hurt.
So being able to utilize those boundaries. Conserving our energy
by putting up that crab shell is a visual I'd
(18:56):
like to give you. Just see a shell around yourself
and seeing nope, I'm going to conserve my energy and
I'm gonna keep it inside myself and until I feel better.
And really focus on your health and wellness right now, guys.
Make sure you're eating right, getting enough sleep, taking care
of work life balance. That's a big one. A lot
of people are telling me they're burned out, they've got
(19:19):
compassion fatigue, they're overworked, they're looking for other jobs because
they don't feel valued at work. These are the kind
of themes I'm hearing in my counseling practice. And I've
been feeling I'm really tired myself. I've been feeling like
I've taken on a little too much, and I just
feel like I never get caught up on my work stuff.
(19:41):
So it's always something I need to do or get done,
and it's just a very busy time. And sometimes mercury
retrograde can make that even more evident because it has
to do with you know, Virgo and Gemini energy, which
is you know, always always doing something, always having something
(20:01):
to you know, tasks that like to be done, and
so it's just a really busy time and there can
be it's harder to focus when mercury's retrograde, so you
may feel a little not as sharp as you usually are.
So that that's very common. So tap in and enjoy
this week of cancer energy and this new moon energy
(20:23):
that you that we're going to have to really you know,
set your intentions, think positive, set some good affirmations of
things you want. Okay, guys. One of the other big
things going on you know this week is is really
just you know, on the eighteenth, we have you know,
(20:46):
a big transit which we call uranis Pluto trine and
this is pretty interesting. On the eighteenth, which is coming
up this week. The next week is this day features
I've major uranus pluto trines over the next two years.
This is a pretty big deal. This kicks off the
first one, and it's a it kicks it off. There's
(21:09):
a feeling of transformation, a social shift, and a lot
of you know, they're predicting a lot of innovation, technological innovation,
you know, AI, robots, all this stuff. I was listening
to a podcast or saw something online about how in
five years there's gonna be over like one hundred thousand
(21:32):
robots or something. I'm like, wow, and they're saying that,
you know, eventually we'll have robots in our houses that
will clean and do all kinds of stuff and cook
and do dishes, and you know, we'll see we're in
the age of Aquarius, as we say, Pluto's and Aquarius,
Uranus and Gemini. There's been a lot of major astrological
(21:53):
shifts and transits the past couple of years that have
been historic, historic things that we have never seen before.
So it's been you know, we're living during a very
transformative time and astrology and astrologers really have never seen
some of the things that we're seeing right now play
(22:13):
out in the sky. It's a very interesting historic time.
Another thing going on just remind everybody is that Neptune.
We talked about this last week that Neptune went retrograde
in Aries, and so when the planet goes retrograde, that
means that that planet is kind of turned inward and
it's going to bring up a lot of issues from
(22:35):
the past, and so it's going to be a reflective time.
Maybe you know, we were taking action on our goals,
wishes and dreams, but now we may feel like we're
stuck or thwarted and not moving forward like we were.
We may feel a little bit lost, a little bit
illusion and dreamy. Just know it will pass. This is
(22:56):
just Neptune and Aries is retrograde, and it's going to
be kind of delaying things for us a little bit. Guys.
So I just want to thank you for listening to
the show. I know it goes so fast as I'm talking,
but you know, tap into this cancer energy this week
and make your list, set your intentions, think positively, you know,
(23:21):
write down you know things that you want you know
and and use the power of your positive thinking to manifest.
You know, it's about believing and knowing, which is one
of the universal laws of the universe, is believing and
knowing that we can have what we want and that
we deserve it, and to believe in in the power
(23:42):
of positive thinking can really help us manifest those things
we want. So write down two or three goals and
glide a candle, light some incense, say some prayers and
on that new moon and cancer on the fourteenth Tuesday
this week, I wish you guys an amazing week. And
you know, as we get into the end of the week,
the moon will go into Leo, so we'll be having fun,
(24:05):
do something social, do your hobbies, and then by the
end of the week it'll be in Virgo. On Friday,
the seventeenth and the eighteenth, you'll be ready to get
some things done and get organized before the weekend. So everybody,
thank you for listening in. And if you're interested, you
can buy my book Your Astrological Energy and Sun Science,
(24:26):
Houses and Healing are out there on Barnes and normal
