Speaker 1:

Welcome to the Emotional Mastery Podcast. I'm Rachelle, your host. I'm here to help you come back to your body, take charge of your emotions and live life on your terms. This podcast is a space for raw, real conversations about what it means to trust yourself, lean into your power and create a life that feels aligned and alive. We'll explore human design, astrology and other tools to help you understand your unique energy. I like to call myself the holistic explorer because I'm always exploring holistic remedies. More importantly, though, we're going to talk about what it means to actually live and embody these aspects, so each week, I'm going to share stories, lessons, guidance to help you navigate life's challenges and really own your magic. So if you're ready to step up, take control and show up as the most authentic version of you, let's begin. Welcome to another episode of the Emotional Mastery Podcast. Before we get started, I just want to share with you a program that will be beginning February 14th, so Valentine's Day, which will be next Friday, depending on when you're listening to this but this small group container I'm only taking five women in is designed to really help you get out of your mind and into your body.

Speaker 1:

A huge lesson for me in my path. My journey has been to stop intellectualizing things, to stop taking in the information and just letting it sit there and actually do something with it. So I've been in my experiment for about six years now, and for the first three probably, I consumed as much as I could and I thought that all this information was just going to change my life, like just knowing it was going to do something. And it did. It broadened my mind, it expanded my mind, it opened my consciousness, it allowed like new things in that maybe I wouldn't have been aware of before. It created self-awareness. But the thing I was missing was action. The thing I was missing was like actually doing something with it. So this is a three-month program again small group container, where we're not just learning our design, we're actually practicing it. We're being held accountable. I have challenges designed within here to really tap you into yourself. It's customized to you. It's not just like a one size fits all. We're looking at each individual chart which is why I wanted to keep it small and we're taking action and we're experimenting which is the biggest thing with your specific design. So if this sounds like something that you are ready for, if you've been intellectualizing all this information and just like having a hard time bringing it into your body. This program was designed with you in mind, so the link for that is down below. You can reach out to me on Instagram to get more information. Talk to me about it. I have any questions. I'm happy to have that conversation with you.

Speaker 1:

And again, it starts next Friday, february 14th, depending on when you're listening to this again. So, yeah, this week we're going to talk about the transits for February. Now January is finally over, right? Like I saw. So many posts on Instagram was like, is it January 76th? Like it felt like a long time. There was a lot going on and, as I'm recording this, today is the 5th. So we've already had our Venus moving into Aries. So we've already had our Venus moving into Aries.

Speaker 1:

Remember, venus is in her shadow phase and she entered that January 28th. Venus will go retrograde March 1st, and so themes that happened from January 28th, when Venus was, let's see, 24 degrees of Pisces, until she goes retrograde on March 1st Pay attention to those themes. We're going to be revisiting them. If you're in a relationship, these themes are things that are going to be coming back up for us to see Again. Venus is relationship, values, morals, money, aesthetics, beauty, art, it's all these things, right, and so anything that has to do with those, like as it comes up now, just again, pay attention, take note. If you journal, this is a great time to like go back and look at it.

Speaker 1:

I remember two summers ago, so not this past summer, the summer before that, venus was in retrograde in Leo, which is my moon in rising, and it was wild wild for relationships, like some of the stuff you probably wouldn't even believe. It was just so wild. And that's all in my first house, right, that's the mask I wear for the world, that's like my body, that's who I present myself as. And Leo is like big, bright, ruled by the sun. Right, it is the actor, it is creative, it is childlike, it is playful, it is like all those fun little things. And I, well, I have my moon, square, pluto. So I was gonna say there is a depth to Leo, but it could just be because I have that that set up. But there's a depth to all of it, right, but, um, but anyway, I mentioned that a because Venus, retrograde, is so powerful and it's in a fire sign.

Speaker 1:

So Venus moved into Aries on the 4th which, as I'm recording, this was yesterday. Venus isn't necessarily super comfortable in Aries because Venus rules Libra and Taurus. So this is I think I'm just a fan of Venus in general. So I don't think there's any like good or bad signs. I think they're all lessons, right, and I think that's more empowering way to kind of view astrology is to look at the lessons that you can learn. You know, even in squares, squares are more challenging aspects, but it's giving us an opportunity to take action to transmute that energy. And this is a huge theme that's come up for me over the last couple weeks, this theme of like aligned action. I've been part of to be a magnet, to be magnetic for years, and the piece that I was always missing was the aligned action.

Speaker 1:

Again, kind of going back to what I talked about before, the knowledge. It's great to have the knowledge, but if we're not doing anything with it, it's just a pretty book on a shelf right. We can share it with others, but if we're not implementing it, if we're not embodying it, if we're not doing anything with that in our life, it's just a pretty book on a shelf right. Knowledge really is power, but it's what are you doing with it? And so I think that squares I sort of view it in that lens where squares are challenging aspects. They can be really hard and they're offering you an opportunity to take action and do something right.

Speaker 1:

I have my moon square, pluto, which is the most challenging aspect that I have in my chart, in my opinion. There's a couple others that immediately come to mind, but that one, for me, has been so intense. But when I'm leaning into it and instead of for me, it's instead of taking action, instead of sorry, instead of reacting, being reactive to the energy, when I sit with it, when I communicate around it, when I work with it, when I take action in the sense of like meditation, reflection, journaling, movement, processing, shaking, dancing, whatever it is right To like kind of move that energy, that's the action it's offering me, it's offering me the opportunity to regulate myself, to get clear, to do something with that emotional energy, to transmute it. Because Pluto, yes, death, transformation, rebirth, but that key transformation right, it's alchemization, it's the healer archetype. As much as it breaks you, it heals you. So when we look at Venus and Aries, it is a fire sign, it is having us move really quickly and, yeah, if we're not aware of how quickly we're moving, we might miss things. You know Aries can be selfish, right, and Aries in its shadow is selfishness, but it can also be self-leadership, right. When we're really working with Libra, it's opposite and bringing that energy in. It's a really beautiful energy.

Speaker 1:

So how are you using the energy? And, more importantly, where do you have Aries in your chart? What's in Aries in your chart? What is this going to be impacting? What is going on for you in this area? Do you have anything between 24 degrees of Pisces until 10 degrees of Aries? So like looking there to see what you have in that degree and if that impacts your chart, if it makes aspects in your chart like really getting familiar with your chart so you can understand how this will impact you. I have my node at 29 degrees of Aries, but other than that, I have Jupiter at 17 degrees of Pisces, so it won't really be impacting too much. But, yeah, the things that have been coming up while Venus is in the shadow phase, I'm taking note of that, I'm paying attention to that Things that are happening around relationships, because those themes will be revisited. The next thing that happened was again yesterday as well.

Speaker 1:

Jupiter station direct in Gemini. Jupiter is expansion. Jupiter is like lucky, it's a benefic planet. But again, jupiter is expansion, so it's going to expand on whatever it is highlighting right, whatever it's touching. So if it's the shadow things that are coming up, jupiter is going to expand it. If it's the highest expression coming up, jupiter is going to expand it.

Speaker 1:

Gemini is all about communication, the mind, social media, being social, being curious, inquisitive, playful. It's a little bit of the trickster energy with Mercury right. So we're expanding on all those things. So now that Jupiter is direct, maybe we're feeling more bold when it comes to social media, the way we're communicating, what we're expressing, what we're saying, how our mind's thinking right, maybe we're feeling a little bit of anxiety or overthinking internally because retrogrades turn energy inside. So we're expanding this internal spotlight on our mind. So maybe that feels a little bit relieved and maybe now you're expressing things, maybe it's coming out, maybe it makes more sense, maybe you just feel the urge to communicate more. Maybe you're kind of overdoing it with social media, maybe you're scrolling too much, like whatever those are, paying attention and noticing those.

Speaker 1:

And then on the 12th we have a full moon, leo, and this is at 24 degrees of Leo. For me, I have my sun at 24 degrees of Taurus, so this is exactly square. So, again, remember, those squares are challenging but they're offering us an opportunity to take action, to do something about it. This is all happening in gate four and gate four is in the Ajna. Gate four is the gate of formalization and, with this moon we're having, the moon is opposite Mercury, so again, we're feeling this element of communication. Right, mercury is in Aquarius, so there's a lot of focus on the mind right now with Aquarius and Gemini, so the moon is opposite Mercury, in Aquarius. How are we feeling the pull, maybe, to communicate things, what's going on there? And it's also square to Uranus. Uranus is in Taurus at 23 degrees, and so it's this friction.

Speaker 1:

Then, right, this again the square, the challenging aspect, is calling us to action. Uranus is anxiety. Uranus is unpredictable. Uranus is freedom. Uranus is innovation. Right, there's beautiful qualities as well, but Uranus is unpredictable. It literally shakes the ground under our feet. But with anything like that, that it's giving us an opportunity to change, to do something, to move forward, to shift things. And especially in super grounded, fixed tourists is all fixed energy, right, leo is a fixed fire sign, so there is an element of stubbornness there being opinionated. So having this in four gate four is of the mind, right?

Speaker 1:

The shadow here is intolerance, like we're not opening up to other people's ideas. We're being intolerant in our mind, really, really watching your mind with this and the last the new moon in Aquarius was about the mind as well. So, again, intolerance. The gift here is understanding, being able to understand people, getting curious, asking questions, imagining yourself in their shoes. What does that feel like? What does that look like? Can we listen to understand? I think that's a beautiful thing about the podcast and that's been a huge lesson for me is truly listening.

Speaker 1:

I was having this conversation over the weekend with someone, but it's like this dance between truly listening, engaging and preparing for the next question. Right, it's actually really hard to do to have it set in your mind and know what you're going to, where you're going to guide the conversation. It's like this little not game, but it's just. It's this little dance that you play. I have people working in the house, so if you hear noises, background noises, apologies, and then the city here.

Speaker 1:

So the highest expression of this is forgiveness. Right, when we're intolerant, we're not accepting, we're not listening, we're fixed right In our opinions, our views. And if you look around the world right now, there's a lot of intolerance, there's a lot of people that aren't forgiving, that aren't understanding, that aren't even attempting to open their mind and listen, and so it always comes back to that like you are healing others by healing yourself, right? People around you are naturally going to your energy. When you're doing the work is rubbing off on others, right? So I think, with this moon, it's a big getting out of your mind. And again, uranus is like the higher mind sort of, because Aquarius is of the mind. Sagittarius, I would say, is higher mind, but Uranus is definitely about the mind, because Aquarius is an air sign, it's the ruler of Aquarius. So this could bring in some anxiety, right, but taking note of it, being aware of it, and some anxiety, right, but taking note of it, being aware of it, being able to move through it. So the Sun is conjunct, mercury obviously opposite. Then we have this square to Uranus and trine to Chiron, so there will be an opportunity to heal wounds within this with this trine to Chiron.

Speaker 1:

There is also still this little pileup in Neptune, or sorry, not in Neptune in Pisces. So Venus is out of sign. Venus is now in Aries, but she's still like kind of in the mix. But there is Saturn, neptune, the North Node, all in Pisces. So this is sort of like the same energy, with the exception of Venus is kind of far out of there and she's in Aries, but Neptune and the North Node are conjunct, right. So this is sort of you know, that North Node is our purpose, our direction, where we're headed, themes that we're experiencing. The South Node is where we find comfort. So when we get uncomfortable, we get triggered, we lean back into that South Node energy.

Speaker 1:

Well, with Neptune in the mix with the north node, it's really bringing in a little bit of delusion, right. It's bringing in a little bit of those rose colored glasses, like we can't quite see the truth. But it's also like the dissolver of boundaries sort of. So it's like where do we need boundaries? Like, what boundaries did it drop? So like kind of getting curious about that. Are we escaping through addictive tendencies, you know, alcohol, drugs, sex, tv scrolling, social media, working out like there's a whole number of things, and then Saturn's also there. So Saturn is still sort of restricting us, asking us again those boundaries that we're not quite sure if we've set with a Neptune. Saturn's like let's pay attention and let's get them in there. So those are the big things that are happening with the moon.

Speaker 1:

Again, jupiter is direct in Gemini and Mars is about to station direct. So that's on the 12th. I'm trying to see if there's any little or not any little other things. But on the 7th, venus is sextile to Pluto. So sextiles are harmonious, supportive aspects. But this is still Pluto. And you know, venus in Aries is action, it's assertion, it's like we're fighting for our relationships. And then Pluto brings you this intensity, this like obsessive energy. Right, we saw that when Venus was conjunct. Pluto is like this obsessive love kind of energy.

Speaker 1:

And then we have our Kazemi on the ninth. So that's Mercury in the sun. Mercury is not in a shadow phase, mercury is not retrograde. So because usually when it's retrograde and there's a Kazemi, then we're gaining a little bit of clarity within the confusion. But you know, the sun, it's like, think about when the sun and Mercury are in the same point in the sky. The sun is so bright you really can't see Mercury, you can't see whatever planet is there, but it's also amplifying at the same time. So it's sort of like when it moves off of it we might really see the lessons or like what's coming up for that, but it's amplifying our communication right In Aquarius. So this is of the mind anyway. It's that innovation, that freedom, that kind of like weird rebellious energy. And then we have, let's see, that's the 9th. On the 10th, mercury is square to Uranus. So again, the unpredictability, that like unknown communicating, it could feel anxious, right, our mind, we could feel anxious in our mind. With that square, the sun is also going to be square to it. So, again, just amplifying all that energy. And then on, let's see what we got.

Speaker 1:

On the 14th, mercury moves into Pisces and Pisces is sensitive. It's a water sign, it's a mutable water sign. It's sensitive, it's psychic, it's intuitive. It loses itself in others. Sometimes it can be have that addictive tendency, right, like we talked about this, the shadows, codependence, losing itself. It can be really hard to be like grounded into this, this 3d. So where are we allowing our mind to go? Is our mind getting lost, right? Or are we using it to open our minds and receive the downloads and open up that psychic ability that we have and maybe medicate, maybe medicate, but also maybe meditate, right, seeing what it brings up there.

Speaker 1:

And on the 18th, the sun moves into Pisces, so that we're moving out of this Aquarius season and into Pisces season. So everything that I just said will be amplified with the sun, the sun in Pisces. So again, like I always find, I have Jupiter in Pisces in my eighth house, so it was real easy to get lost in that. So Pisces. So again, like I always find, I have Jupiter Pisces in my eighth house, so it was real easy to get lost in that. So Pisces season for me tends to be a little bit more challenging when it comes to habits, addictions, things like that. So it'll be highlighting those for you. So what's coming up? Where are you finding yourself? Maybe leaning into like more addictive tendencies, and let's see what else we got.

Speaker 1:

So then we have, on the 23rd, mars stations direct in Cancer, which I've been waiting for this because it was pretty intense when Mars was retrograde in Leo, but it's now in Cancer, so we're kind of out of that internal energy. So it's been a lot of like, maybe passive aggressive behavior, but like internalized onto us, maybe like fighting for our home, our family, just feeling those sorts of things. So, as it's been a lot of like, maybe passive aggressive behavior, but like internalized onto us, maybe like fighting for our home, our family, just feeling those sorts of things. So as it's stationing direct now, we'll get a little bit of a release off of, like the internal pressure of it and be able to like see what themes come back up and do something about that. And then on the 27th we have our new moon in Pisces and this is just square to Jupiter.

Speaker 1:

So this is expanding on everything that's coming up and this is gate 37. And gate 37, this is the gate of friendship. This is in the solar plexus. So most of Pisces' gates are in the solar plexus. A lot. There's a big pile up here in Pisces and Aries. So then here at Aries we have obviously Venus and Chiron, and then in Pisces we have Neptune, the North Node, mercury, saturn, the Sun and the Moon. So almost like literally almost everything is in Pisces. Here. This is really amplifying this Pisces energy and again, this gate of friendship. The shadow here is weakness, so and the gift is equality and the city is tenderness. So we think of the gate of friendship, right.

Speaker 1:

It's like, especially with Pisces we, it is so easy for Pisces to lose itself in other people. Pisces has a really hard time grounding in this world, right, it wants to be out in the ethers and doing its spiritual things. And, and you know, pisces think about mutable water Like, first of all, water itself is adaptable to the container that it's in, right, so we're also amplifying at that by being a mutable sign. So, are you losing yourself in your friendships? Are you holding your own in your friendships, right, are you?

Speaker 1:

The two expressions that the gene keys talks about is over-sentimental and cruel. So the little saying it says is I don't feel appreciated and supported. Are you giving more than you're getting? Are you setting boundaries? And with all of this energy in Pisces right now, especially with Saturn, right, it's really asking you to set boundaries. And again, this is square to Jupiter in Gemini, so it's of the mind, this is being social, but it's really amplifying that right, it's expanding on it.

Speaker 1:

And that city of tenderness. Well, the gift is equality. So the gift says the more I give, the more I receive, which I love that, right. It's like you ever lend a friend money and then when they don't pay it back, or a family member, whatever, and they don't pay it back, you get mad. I feel like this gift here equality in that saying the more I give, the more I receive. It's like giving without expectation to get it back. Just in that intention alone, I feel like you're going to get back amplified. But it really isn't giving that we receive. So that's a lot of that energy that's happening right there and, yeah, that's really the big things that are happening in February, this month, in what is Pisces season, and I've been going live every day as part of my little challenge to myself. So if you follow me on Instagram at Rochelle Christian, I am going live daily.

Speaker 1:

Again, that program, empower, begins February 14th. So many lessons have been coming up, so many lessons have been coming up and I will be back to talk about it. I've also got so many incredible podcast interviews coming for you, so many. I'm so excited. So I hope that it's 2.22 right now as I am about to sign off on this episode. But, yeah, enjoy your week. And next week is that new moon. So hop over, sorry, full moon. So hop over to Instagram, follow me over there. I will be going live for the new moon, the full moon, the full moon in Leo. We'll be talking about it in there. I just have a feeling this one's gonna be a little bit intense because I have my sun and earth at 24 degrees of fixed signs of Taurus Scorpio. But yeah, come check it out over there.
