The Firestarter: When the Dreamer Becomes the Warrior

Hello everybody and welcome to our first episode of our new series called a cosmic intelligence briefing. I am Julie Christine. I'm with the Academy of Logic and Light and I'm here with uh Major Tom and I'm going to pass over the platform for him to introduce himself and then we'll kind of uh talk about how this uh series is going to work and how today's episode's going to work. So, >> all right. >> Hi, Tom. >> All right. Well, yeah. My name is Tom Garland and I am in southern Oregon. I am a an astrologer, but it's kind of a mix. I I learned Vadic astrology. Uh I started about a week after 911 back in 2001. And I'd say after about 15 years, I started learning about western astrology, outer planets, the techniques of western astrology. And so I'm kind of in a blend right now um of using both. And then on top of that um I've been on a metaphysical spiritual journey for about the same amount of time. So I've I've gotten a couple degrees in metaphysical sciences. I'm a holistic life coach. And so what I do is I have a private practice in southern Oregon, but I also have clients all over the world. Uh, I have a couple of, uh, social media platforms like Tik Tok and YouTube where I have a channel and I go over astrology and any other metaphysical musings about present- day life on the planet. Um, and that's about it for right now. I have a couple other offerings. I have a I have a monthly analog newsletter, so it doesn't come to your email. And uh I have uh a book that I put out last year called The Great Onlogical Shock, which kind of explains the period of time between November 2024 and the month that we just had in February. And so, uh that is out on Amazon. Uh I think that's about it that I can think about. Yeah. >> Yeah. Awesome. I I don't know if you want to share, but my favorite part of when we first met was when you told me how you were learning astrology. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Um, so I at the time was in IT. I actually was in the IT field for 26 years. And at one point, and it actually happened right at 911, uh, I had a boss that didn't have the same kind of outlook on life that I did. and I was kind of looking for another job and a friend of mine said, "Hey, I know this Vadic astrologer," this was down in Los Angeles at the time and he said he needs some help with his computer at his office. And so I said, "I'll go help." And went over there and there were two ladies in this home office and after fixing their their computer issue real quick, uh they they said, "Well, the full-time person here is leaving. It'd be really cool if you could work here. Then we would have no computer problems." And so I said, 'Well, you know what's going on here? Oh, well, we have this astrologer. And at the time, I was on a spiritual path, but I didn't really I hadn't gotten into astrology yet. And so I said, "Sure. Yeah, this sounds great." And so he walked in the room and he was this this little guy. He was probably about 5'2 and he's from India. He was at least in his 70s, first time I'd seen him. No idea who this guy was. and kind of made the offer to him and he said, "Let me see the child." And so I, you know, we got the birth information to him and he looked at it and it is fine. And so I was hired just like that. And so I spent the next two years full-time every day working for him. And what I saw scared the crap out of me. And so talking with the clients that were calling in and finding more about who this guy was, um it turned out that he was kind of like the grandfather of Vadic astrology coming to the west. Uh if you've heard of the City Yoga Foundation, he was uh Mktananda, which is their guru. Uh it was Muk Muktanda's guru or I'm sorry, astrologer. And so he came over with that group to America and and his father was an astrologer. His father was an astrologer out of Kerala, India. And so his name's Chakar Pani Ul. And so I got to learn straight from him for a couple of years and then after that I learned from a couple other teachers uh notably Ernst Wilhelm, Hart Defoe and a couple of others. And so, um, but yeah, the beginning was great because I would sit there and he would have a lot of clients remotely and so he was just like maybe 10 feet into another room. So, I could hear a lot of these sessions and I'd have the the chart up on the on the on the on the monitor and I'd be hearing him and I'm trying to figure it out myself and then when the session was over he'd come in and I'd be like, "So, why did you say that? I'm look." And he's all he would just be like, "It just did Jupiter." And then he'd walk away like very Yeah. Very Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Yeah, it was it was it was fun. It was a good time. >> I love that. That's so cool. I always like to hear people's like stories of when they transferred over and they were like, "hm, I think I might be a believer." >> Yeah. I mean, it's really true. You don't find astrology. Astrology finds you. >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> Yes. I can't confirm. Well, I'm so excited that you're here today and thank you for taking the time first and foremost and sharing all of your information with us. I've been in fascinated by everything that you do since we first started talking. Um, but yeah, if you want to jump into the astrology. Yeah, I mean since we're talking today, um I mean the biggest thing going on from an astrological perspective is we're slowly moving from a lot of watery energy into a lot of fire energy. Okay, so it's kind of like saying the dream phase is ending, okay, and the action phase is beginning. So this is all kind of on the back of what we just went through in February. Okay, we had a huge amount of very unique once in a-lifetime once in a humanity type cycles ending and a new era beginning and that was mostly because of the Saturn Neptune conjunction. Okay. And that was at 0 degrees Aries, which some astrologer out there found out when the last time Saturn and Neptune were conjunct on the zero point of Aries. And it was about 6,400 years ago. So we're talking before recorded history, >> right around the time you have hunter gatherers moving into more societal civilization type setups. So um there's not a lot you could pull from that time, but it's it's been a while. So, >> I did have a couple of slides from a talk that I'm going to do in a couple of weeks >> that can kind of visualize a little bit about that Saturn Neptune conjunction because really that starts and it happened at the same time of the Chinese New Year. So we went from that year of the snake to the year of the fire horse. And then within 3 days we have this Saturn Neptune conjunction which again I I say heralded a whole new era like of a couple of millennia at least. And so nothing that we've ever felt before. So as we know around the planet we had all sorts of interesting things happen in the month of February. So a lot of that played into this movement into fire especially with two planets Saturn and Neptune. You know, Saturn represents structure. It represents truth and reality. And Neptune represents, you know, dreams, but also illusions and delusions. And so, you put them together and you kind of have this illusions dissolving and reality kind of surfacing. Now, depending on what kind of reality you think you live in, that could either be a lot of nice truth and clarity or it could be a lot of suffering. So, that's what we're now in. And it's the pace is going to start picking up here, but not yet because we still have Mercury retrograde and we've had Jupiter retrograde for about four months, but as of yesterday, it's stationing direct. Now, Jupiter, now you've heard of that with probably Mercury, right? Mercury stations direct. And Mercury goes retrograde three times a year, 21 days a piece. But Jupiter when it goes retrograde is for four months. So this has been since what November that we've had Jupiter exalted in Cancer not able to fully express Jupiter's expansiveness, optimism, surrender, faith, whatever. And so while it stations, we're starting to feel that expansiveness come back, that optimism come back, our ability to see the things that we've been reviewing for the last few months about our purpose and our meaning and what should we be doing. All of that is going to start clearing up starting really yesterday. And the great thing is Jupiter is going to stay on 15 degrees of Cancer for a while because as it starts to move forward, it's still slow. So if you have anything in your chart that's around 15 degrees cancer, um it's really going to put that Jupitarian emphasis on that area of the chart. And it really won't move off of 15 degrees until about April 4th. So uh but that's the biggest kind of thing happening right at this moment. And this is a lot of this is the backdrop. A lot of times when we look at monthly happenings, it's really about some of this this the faster moving planets, the social planets or the the personal planets, Mercury, Venus, the moon, Mars, etc. So, um, what do we want to talk about here? Let's see. I think >> we're in the middle of Mercury retrograde right now, right? >> We are. We are. week and then shadow period >> we have until the 20th and so on the 20 no actually it's the 21st I believe let's let me look at the chart here >> and for those of you who don't know while he's looking for that Mercury is the planet of communication technology travel um so if you felt like your communication's been a little wonky or your technology is a little glitchy lines at the store weird because the cashier is glitchy travel is a nightmare right Now, I know lots of people who are stuck in lots of weird places. So, everybody, every time you think that Mercury retrograde's coming out, everyone talks about the O's and Wo's, but one of the best benefits of Mercury retrograde is to be able to see what pops up for you so you don't have to repeat it again next time. >> So, some people will often see uh repetitive things come up as an X's pop back in. That's kind of one of the things Mercury retrograde's famous for is exes popping back up or maybe you're the person that's popping in and you're the problem. Um but Mercury retrograde is just kind of one of those moments where we can like really like reflect what's repeating so we don't have to do it worse next time. >> Yeah. Yeah. And and again when it stations direct when when a planet stations it's neither direct or retrograde. So it's kind of holding its energy and it gets a little bit more pronounced during the station, right? So it's it's kind of like turning the volume up very quickly and then it kind of comes back to where it is once it gets in its motion. The moment it goes direct or stations direct, it's going to be on the 21st, which happens to be the spring equinox. >> Oh, how imagine. >> Yeah. So, the moment that the sun goes into Aries, Mercury goes, "Oh, hey, I'm I'm willing to communicate again." >> Oh, that's gonna be a big day. >> Well, and on top of that, um, it's going to be conjunct Exactly. The North Node or Rahu, the head of the dragon. So we have a more obsessed intense need >> to communicate especially on a karmic level because Rahu and K2 the the lunar nodes they always bring in some sort of karmic angle to the moment to the energy. >> So wherever Pisces is in your chart and this retrograde goes direct and it's conjunct the north node. We also have Mars itself a little bit seven degrees away. So it's it's adding a little bit of energy of initiation, focus, drive. And if you've been holding on to this communication, it could be some frustration or some impatient anger or something trying to get out what needs to get out. >> So that that day is going to be interesting. >> Yeah. >> Have fun. >> Yeah. cuz not only not only is the sun back in Aries on that day, that's when it starts conjuncting this line of planets that's already been set up in Aries. Like we have the Saturn Neptune that has been separating now since February 20th. >> And let's make a little side note here. For the last couple of years when Saturn was transiting Pisces, it was behind Neptune. >> Okay. Okay. So from a point of receiving information, Neptune always came with the dream first, the possibilities, being intuitive in Pisces, right? >> And and so you got that. Actually, no, I'm sorry. You got the truth first and then you got the illusions afterwards, like, oh, I'm going to do this. I'm going to create some structure. I'm going to be pragmatic and I'm going to be disciplined. I'm going to do this. Well, you can't do that a lot with Saturn and Pisces. You know, there's a lot of mention about stale standing water when Saturn transits through Pisces and you get, of course, a lot of flooding and and and you know, rainstorms and that. But >> once once they became conjunct in Aries, Saturn being the faster planet is starting to push forward and ahead. So now at this point the truth is going to be seen through the illusion versus the other way. It's almost like it was getting covered by Piscian energy and now with Aries Saturn gets to separate more. Saturn's also debilitated Aries. Saturn does not like being in Aries. >> It's it's exalted in Libra. >> Okay. Libra likes to provide balance, knows the cost of things, wants to be just, okay, and fair. You go over to Aries. Aries, it's like, "Nope, I want to run forward. Active fire ruled by Mars. I'm going to do what I want to do head first like the ram." And then Saturn goes in there and says, "Well, hold on. Let's let's restrain ourselves. Let's contain this." And just doesn't it's just not a good mix. Okay. >> Yeah. >> So, so now that you have this ne Neptune and Saturn cruising through Aries, it's still slow. So, Neptune's still at one degrees. Saturn's at about four degrees now. So, as of today, Saturn now just made um or no, I'm sorry. In another couple days, Saturn will make a nice sex tile back to Pluto in Aquarius, which is at 5 degrees starting today. >> And what would the pl what would that like energy look like? >> Well, a sex tile, I always like to say, is kind of like a tickle. It's a little It's like exciting. It's a little It's a little poke. It's it's not a it's it's not a friction type aspect. >> So, you're really talking about a nice sexile from Saturn to Pluto, which again, I think tempers a lot of Pluto's mystery and >> transformative energy. It kind of brings some structure to it. It kind of brings a little bit of of a container for that to work within. And then of course fire and wa fire and air always kind of interact elementally together. >> So So it's a it's a nice elemental exchange of energy as well. But what I was getting at was that the sun's going to hit and as of as of March 21st it'll be exact Neptune. So then we get a nice illusury foggy veil around kind of our authority and our our soul and our character and wondering how we should kind of bring that out in in front of people, you know, should should we should we use more intuition? Should I stand here and be all in my power or should I be a little bit more illusory, >> something like that, but and then a couple days later you have it conjunct Saturn and then it's just going to keep going through Aries and conjuncting it'll get to Venus and then Chiron, the wounded healer towards the end of the sign. But that's not going to happen more until we get into like midappril. >> Okay. >> So, >> okay. >> But there are planets behind that are going to be joining. You're going to have Mercury catch up real quick here once we get past the spring equinox. and it's going to jump and move right into becoming conjunct with Mars and then quickly going into Aries where the first new moon of the new solar year. So, you know, once the once the sun goes into Aries, we're in spring, right? We're in the spring equinox, >> right? Once you're there, the the the next new moon is kind of the big new moon for that whole year from spring to spring. >> What's it in? >> Well, what what's what's in >> uh what sign is the moon going to be in the new moon? >> Well, it's going to be with the sun. It's a new moon. So, they'll be conjunct. >> So, let me if you want I can um we can share this. >> Yeah. I want to see like >> Yes. I need visual representations and I know people also appreciate. I always forget conjunct too. I'm like, okay, so walk me through it like I'm it's my first day >> like with AI. Talk to me like I'm a 5-year-old. >> Yes, please. So, I don't have any Pisces in my chart at all, but my eighth house is ruled by Pisces there, but there's nothing in it. So, what would you give like for people? You said people with Pisces energy. So, is it sharing on the screen yet? >> I don't see. >> No. Do I need to share it? >> Oh, hold on. Let me see if I can There we >> go. >> Oh, there it is. Okay. So, this would be the actual Okay. The moment that the sun goes into Earth, what I'm talking about is moving forward, okay, into April when we get to the first new moon. So you can see the moon traveling around and when it gets to pretty much exact the sun. I went too far. Hold on. There we go. So what you can see down here, this would be the new moon. So it's kind of happening in the morning where I live on the 17th of April. And we have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven celestial objects in Aries. >> Wow. >> That's a lot. You're not going to find that very often. >> No. >> In history at all. >> So, >> that's on April 17th. >> That's on April 17th. >> Wow. >> So, like, um, I wanted to find something about this, but here's here's the interesting thing. to have a new moon and have it be so close to Chiron. There's a lot of this being the new beginning for the year that's going to relate a lot to some of the wounds that we might have, you know, from our youth that there's a connection here to figuring out, you know, kind of what's transpiring on the planet, what's transpiring in our individual lives, and how is that going to kind of light the match, okay? light the fire that kind of starts this year when you have so much energy happening in such, you know, in the first sign of the zodiac. I mean, this is a true true new moon on so many levels that we've never experienced before. Uh gosh, where is my Here we go. So, let's see here. Yeah, I mean if you if you see this here for this new moon to have Neptune and Mercury within one degree, Mars within two degrees and then Saturn within two degrees of that the the stellium energy in this in this sign is is out of control. >> Intimidating. >> Yeah. Um I'm trying to get to something that I wrote down here. but for some reason I can't find it. But basically, you're going to it's not just beginning something new. You're you're beginning something new, but with wisdom from the past. That's the Chiron connection. You know, Aries is kind of the warrior. Chiron is like a scar so to speak. And so it's the scar that actually teaches the warrior how to fight differently in a sense. And then you add Neptune to that there's a certain spiritual aspect to this warrior energy. So we've spent about two and a half years in this dream Piscian energy that has now just ended. So, this isn't just, oh, we're just talking about the month, you know, of the sun being in Aries. This is a whole different kind of situation where this this Aries is so much more powerful, more powerful than we've ever had in our lives. >> I can feel it. >> Yeah. >> And it's very interesting you said too that people's like childhood like triggers were popping up because that usually I obviously when we're in this world, we're good at pattern recognition. uh pattern recognition is in that almost everyone in my community has talked about some sort of like childhood memories popping up or feeling triggered in a way that has made them feel childlike or something has poked at them in and something that they've forgotten something old. But also like you said that that ancient wisdom's coming in and that like really brings me the hopeful part of we've been talking about instead of calling this a revolution. We're calling it an evolution and a spiral that we're breaking the pattern of what the revolution just goes in circles. We're breaking an actual cycle and moving out of learning from our mistakes, taking the wisdom from the old and moving into the new world with what like it's not often you get to move into the next phase or let's say this people always say I wish I could remember uh or had the wisdom I have now as an adult when I was younger. It's kind of that sort of same situation or past life. Oh, I wish I could remember that past life skill. All of a sudden, you might be able to um memories might be unlocked that are not just memories of you in this physical body, but on other dimensions as true. Just >> Yeah. I mean, we asked to be here. I mean, we all signed up to be here during this time. >> So, even though we might think we're crazy sitting here in 3D going, "What the heck did my higher self think?" >> No, there was >> there was a whole big reason to be here right now because nobody wants to miss out on such a shift on such a planet. We have front row seats. >> We do have front row seats. >> And we get to get a little bit like a mosh pit, you know. >> Well, I did like those when I was younger. >> Right. Right. Yeah. After a while, >> it's just not something you want to go into. >> Yeah. >> Have to lay down afterwards. >> Yeah. Bedtime's at 9. >> That's right. That's right. But it's kind of interesting coming into this like wild like life-changing energy also coming in not from our youth but coming in with a little bit of like you know we can watch from maybe not on the front lines how we would have but maybe a little bit now we're holding the people on the front lines. >> Yeah. And it's nice now for since last summer, we've had Jupiter exalted in Cancer, which is the natural fourth house, which so it's it's always been this nice, you know, comforting, nourishing Jupiter that we've been allowed to have while the world is like going crazy around us. Uh, but it's only going to be there for another few months and then it moves like all these other things into Leo, a fire sign. So, you just can't make this stuff up. I mean, we are literally going from water to fire on all levels this year. And this and this month is really when we when we actually start stepping into it right through the doorway of Aries. And so to know that from basically the time the sun goes into Aries, we have a train of planetary resonances following and tracking under the same kind of energy. Now what you were talking about with these childhood memories and whatnot, the moment that Saturn Neptune went into Aries, they were co-present in Aries with with Chiron. I mean, they're not conjunct, you know, within a certain degree. So, they're not like fused together, but it's there. It's pain. >> Yeah, I feel that. I, you know, I kind of get my news from a bunch of different sources. I usually see what like the left is saying, the right saying. Not that any of those things make any sense in the actual world I live in. I like to see what the occult studies are saying. I like to see what the religious people are saying. I like to read the astrology forecast and I just kind of like to piece it all together because where there's parallels there's usually energy of >> something to like pay attention to. Um but uh something that I kind of was following um on the Tik Tok side of the news, take it as you will, was uh kind of how the there's been obviously a big shift happening recently and you kind of almost have to be dead to feel it to not have felt it. I mean, um, but in the shift, you can kind of, some people are feeling like, uh, reporting more positive energy, um, a little more fire go-getter energy of the year of the fire horse. We've shed what we're doing. We've got the actions, we feel the joy, and other people are reporting like a little bit of a different experience. And that also might depend on like where your perspective and views are in life. Because if your perspectives and views are on this negative outcome, that's where you're going to quantum leap to. So, I encourage people to have a positive outlook of where you're going. Um, frame yourself in like who do I want to be? How do I want to show up? Uh, for myself and for those around me as we're going into these new energies so that you can pinpoint, focus on it, and then quant use these portals to quantum leap to your reality. Hopefully, that makes sense. >> No, it it totally does. I mean, you you've got to also think about these planets and them going into Aries. Yeah, you could be having the time of your life and people around you are losing their minds. It just depends on a couple of things from an astrologers point of view. Well, what house is Aries for you? You know, if it's an angular house, like the fourth house, there's going to be some friction. The fourth house is about your private emotional happiness and security and your home and your roots and your foundations. That's a lot harder for Saturn to transit through than say going through the fifth house, you know, which is a trinal house and it's more about your dharma. It's about self-expression and creativity and having fun and romance and luck. Way better transit for the next two and a half years for Saturn to go through something like that. Now then you talk about their individual charts. It could be a great sign or a great house. It could be the fifth house, but Saturn in their chart is afflicted and they're running a Saturn dasha. So it's activated and all of a sudden they are just in a serious amount of suffering facing a certain amount of truth and reality but yet somebody else who has say the same rising sign and it's going through the same house for them. They're not having the same experience. So that's what an astrologers job is. You can kind of just parse through their chart have an understanding of why they're feeling the way that they're feeling. And then of course you add the layer of perception and their environment. And the environment can be their political beliefs, you know, the way that their parents raised them, their religion if they have one. All of those things are going to kind of add a certain amount of distortion to how they're perceiving reality. >> Yeah. >> Right. And so for everybody though, everybody on this planet since 2003 has been seeing an outer planet go through Pisces. So, we have had this Piscian transpersonal collective consciousness energy that we've been kind of swimming through for 20 years. And so, you kind of look at certain aspects of life on the planet depending on which country you're living in. And it all kind of boils around some themes that have to do with Pisces. you know, let's come in and let's have these big dreams and let's let's make sure everybody's happy and let's uh let's be tolerant of everything that we can. And of course, when the pendulum swings too far in one direction, you can have what's called like suicidal empathy where you're so empathetic to anybody suffering that you're willing to do anything to relieve that suffering even to the point of harming yourself in some way, >> right? And so you kind of we went through a time of like dissolving all these structures with Pisces, you know, spiritual searching, you know, blurring realities, deep emotional tides that we've all been dealing with, especially the last two and a half years. But think about it for for this has been affecting an entire generation of people being raised in that kind of energy. And we just ended that. We just ended that less than a few weeks ago. And so it's kind of like we're done being in the ocean. We're now on land and somebody's striking the match now. And it's like wherever Aries in your chart is, it that's where the ignition is happening. That's where that match is getting lit. So like for example, you know, if Aries is your 10th house, you know, it's going to be about your public life, your career. You know, if you're a little bit older, it's kind of, you know, and you're retired, it's your calling. You know, what do I want to leave behind? Um, fourth house again is about home and family and foundations and things like that. you know, seventh house, if Aries is the seventh house for you, it's going to do a number, you know, on on how you deal with relationships and, you know, the courage to potentially redefine those. So, there are powerful questions now, right, with with kind of what we got to deal with with this new energy that's different from the last two decades. So, you know, like what kind of courage is being asked of you right now? You know, that's a great question. As a spiritual warrior, what has happened since February that is saying, I've got to pull some courage that either I have or I don't know I have out to work with. That's a good question to ask. You know, what truth have you been feeling, but you haven't yet acted on? You know what? What have things dissolved or where have things dissolved enough so that something new can finally emerge? And I guess finally like what is asking to begin in your life? You know, those are the kinds of things that I would ask with this kind of energy happening right now. And and it's it these questions are great for the next 30 to 45 days. >> Dang. Those are really good questions, too. Yeah. I mean, remember, astrology, planets don't cause things to happen, right? They're not in the sky just shooting ray beams at you, you know, when they get to certain places. This is all about quantum entanglement. This is all about the fact that we are all connected to all things. The universe is one. All is mind. And so when a state of something shifts instantaneously the states of other things shift. And you know you just go by the the original universal laws as above so below. When something at a macrocosmic level shifts something shifts instantaneously at the microcosmic level. So, if you are someone that loves being in hot weather and you have no problem hanging out in hot weather and then all of a sudden the state shifts, right? You know, Saturn moves into a water sign and you know, you could say that that gets colder. Well, you're not going to be in that nice warm weather anymore in a sense. But then how does your chart say you handle cold weather? you know, that's another level to it, right? Somebody else can handle the cold weather just fine and, you know, cannot stand the heat. So, all of these shifts in state not only are not something like some magic Newtonian physical ray of energy, it's it's really a a shift in the consciousness of the way the planets are interacting and how those energies reflect into our individual lives and then the lives of the collective. I I'll piggy back off of that as well when you said as above so below. It's also as within so without. So in the exact same way that he said you're mirroring the cosmic of the the micro and the macro is the exact same thing. So whatever is happening in your inner world is a reflection of your outer world and your outer world is a reflection of your inner world. And if you need to take some time in the next two weeks and organize your space that you're living in, organize your own energy center to get ready for this, Aries, I would take full advantage of that. Ask yourself the questions Tom said. Ask yourself the questions I asked about character and who you want to be. And really take some these are really good reflection times. Less communicating, more internalized, >> definitely >> says Mercury. >> Right. Oh, I I forgot about something else that's coming up uh in a couple days. You know, we have Friday the 13th. >> Yes. >> Right. Let's uh let's go back to that real quick. >> So, here's Friday the 13th. Now, Friday the 13th has its own interesting, you know, history to it. But on this day, Mars will be conjunct the north node. So we all know what Mars means. Mars is, you know, fiery. It's it's kind of the general. Okay, the general goes out and goes to war with no emotion. It's going to make decisions, be decisive, initiate action. And when you mix that with the North Node, oh, you get some wild action. you get some you get some obsessive intense erratic kind of energy to go along with it. >> So, and then you you know just three degrees away we've got Mercury retrograde. So whatever action whether it's saying something to somebody whether it's going out and doing something uh you know make sure your intentions are clear and make sure that you don't color outside the lines too much cuz it is Pisces still so it can be a little emotional and the sun is in that sign as well so you know don't don't let it knock you off your pedestal you know don't let it take away any authority you might have in the situation. But it's going to be an interesting Friday. That's for sure. The great thing though is you'll notice that the moon that day is sex tiling that setup a little bit. It's more on to the Mercury side in terms of its degrees, but you know, you could go down to like 30 minutes and see how slow the the moon moves. But ultimately, the moon will also be opposed to Jupiter which is the ruler of where Jupiter is in the sky right now. >> Oh wow. >> So and while Jupiter is stationing that moon opposition I mean there could be some a lot of this could could have to do because you could see here that Jupiter is also trining over to this neck of the woods as well to the to the Mercury. So there is some expansive thinking. There could be some optimistic and expansive communication happening. Um but that that Mars Rahu that could uh just just keep your pace keep a pace about you. Don't don't get too out of control because that that moon could bring a lot of emotions to these ideas and you really want to push these ideas onto people. So be careful. Be careful on Friday. Interesting. >> Yeah, >> very interesting. >> We've had two Friday 13s in a row. It feels like >> have we? >> Yeah. Uh we had one >> in February, I believe. >> Was February's on that? >> Wait, we're in February. No, we're in March now. >> Yeah, it was two Friday the 13th in a row. >> Yeah. >> You can't make this stuff up, folks. >> I know, right? It's just too crazy. >> Yeah. >> Do you have the Friday the 13th lore, by the way? Not >> Well, not only that. Well, where did the Friday the 13th come from? It came from God something way back when and I think it was in Europe during the dark ages. Could do a quick little search here. >> I know, right? It's just been such a weird one like vilified day, but I always use it as like a goddess day. We had Mercury conjunct Rahu in Pisces the last Friday the 13th. So, this one's going to be a little This one will be a little bit more intense. >> Okay. Well, it does seem like things are ramping up. >> Totally. And it did. It does. Um the Friday the 13th did have something to do, I think, with um >> witchcraft, I believe. >> Yeah, for sure. I should know more, but alas, we would have to contact our oult studies guy who probably has it all. for >> it was from Friday the 13th, 1307. Knights Templars were arrested under Pope Clement V and King Phillip IV of France. >> H >> So it was a big arrest day for the Knights Templar. >> Interesting. Nothing to do with women? >> No, it had nothing to do with witchcraft. >> Wow. Interesting. >> Interesting. So, it's been a big energy day regardless of >> regardless. >> Yeah. >> Correct. >> How interesting. >> Yeah. >> Very interesting. Okay. So, we've kind of talked about the energy of the week. We've kind of talked about how people can prepare for what's coming up. Uh if you have any questions and you're watching, feel free to put them in the comments. Tom, do you have uh anything else, advice, recommendation? You know, I would just say that >> you know, we're we're a third of the way through March and March was always going to be about correction under motion. You know, again, we were we've had so much time in Pisces and with February throwing us the eclipse season with the Saturn Neptune conjunction still having Jupiter retrograde, adding Mercury retrograde, there's still corrections going on. There's still corrections to what our path's going to be, but I'm sure you've felt it. I've felt it, too. Things are coming together. Okay, things, you know, I still have this tone of something's got to give. I still feel like everybody could say that something's got to give. I've been pushing this way. I've been trying this and and I'm just something needs to happen. >> I think we can feel that too in our own >> like a pressure point release almost. It's like tension. >> Something's got to happen. I've got to get this job. I've got to get this I got to make this project work. Um I don't know why I can't break through something. Confusion sets in. I need to seek clarity on an item. It's almost like we've been in that for months. >> Yes. >> Right. And the moment we hit February and we started having some major planets go into Aries, things started moving. The eclipse will obviously throw a lot of curve balls. We had the solar eclipse and the lunar eclipse. The lunar eclipse is on my birthday on March 3rd. Um it it'll throw some curve balls and some karmic pivots, not just individually, but for the world. And so a lot of things were set in motion over the last few weeks that are going to ripple and echo probably not just through the rest of this year, but for the next couple of years, right? I mean, we could talk about like what the Epstein list, you know, what's going on in Iran. You know, we we had uh some serious people um knocked off the scene like Elemento in Mexico who was like the biggest cartel leader in the world. We obviously had the Ayatollah just pass uh due to unfortunate circumstances and and then we also had somebody like Jesse Jackson who also had had passed during that eclipse season. So, lots of pivotal things happen that are still we're still going to be feeling the effects of we even had the president say, "Hey, let's let's let's out all the materials that we have on UFOs and UAPs, right? We haven't seen some of that yet. I don't think the narrative is going to be all wholesome and objective. I'm sure it'll have an an angle, but lots of things were set in motion." >> Yeah. And so as we kind of go through March and moving up to April, it's also kind of like looking at consequences without collapse yet. Okay. So we that's and we've seen this so far. We've seen consequences without a collapse just yet. Okay. >> And then there's a lot of clarity that we're going to get to at the end of the month. through review. And that that goes back to the retrograde of of of Mercury. So really, it's it's not until we start breaking into April or last five days or so of the month where we'll really start to feel things move. And then extra credit, things will really start moving when we get to April 25th, which is when Uranus leaves Taurus, this grounded, fixed Earth sign for the last eight years, and goes into fast airy Gemini on April 25th for the next eight years. And boy, will that change everything. >> Oh, yeah. Wow. >> Yeah. Go back to last July and August. Anybody listening to this go back to July and August and see what was happening in your life around July August and then if you know what house Gemini is for you there would have been some electrifying shocking abrupt shifts reorienting reversed course endings beginnings um whatever that was for you in July August that's what you have to expect going into April 25th and onwards That that would be just the taste. >> How fun. Now I have to go back into my pictures and see what was happening. >> Yeah. >> Wow. Okay. Uh Gemini is an interesting air energy. I mean, is is Uranus a planet ruled by is it air? >> Uranus is an air is an air planet, you mean? Yeah. >> Okay. And then Gemini is air as well. >> Correct. >> Yeah. That'll be an interesting energy. Well, it it kind of what we're what we're seeing here, especially once Jupiter goes into Leo, we're saying all the outer planets, all of them, all five, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, all will be in air and fire signs. All of them. >> Wow. >> Wow. >> Yeah. And I mean, you know, if you want to get even crazier, let's let me show you this. So let's go to July. Okay. So you you guys can see the screen, right? Okay. Look. So starting with Pluto in Aquarius, this is around this is July 9. This what I'm showing here is July 19th. This isn't the day yet, but if you notice, Pluto is at 4 degrees Aries. which means it's sex tiling Neptune at four degrees in Aries, which is sex tiling 4° in Uranus in I'm sorry, four degrees in Gemini for Uranus and then Uranus is sex tiling Jupiter in Leo at four degrees. >> Okay? And all we got to do is just move forward a few days or no move back. Uh would this be it? Yeah. Oops. All right. There we go. So on July 19th, the moon will get to Libra and it will be sexiling Jupiter. Jupiter will be sexiling Uranus. Uranus sexiling Neptune. Neptune sexiling Pluto. Jupiter trining Neptune. Uranus trining Pluto. Pluto trining the moon. Moon trining. Yeah, we're we're basically almost building a star of Bethlehem. >> I was just about to say I was like, I see I see the star. >> Yeah. And then you could even go forward a few days and we can get it to where So now the moon would be opposing Uranus and trining Neptune and trining Jupiter. So there's almost like 5 days apart another almost formed star of Bethlehem just moving the moon instead of it being in Libra it's in Sagittarius. So >> this is something that you'll never see again in your life and nobody else has seen for a very long time especially when it has to do with outer planets. I mean, you'll never see outer planets this coherent. And remember what we said at the beginning of this podcast was that sex tiles are like little tickles, right? It's a it's it's a harmonic little energetic kind of shove. And then trines are a nice harmonious sacred geometrical angle as well. That's all this is. Now, there are some oppositions that are happening, okay? But when you take the moon out of it, it's mostly just trines and sex tiles. And so I don't know what's going to happen, but this is after a really rough early July with Mars and Uranus conjunct on the 4th of July, our 250th anniversary of the country. um every time Mars and Uranus conjunct in Gemini and you'll have it happen four times because it's Uranus is eight years and Merc and Mars takes two years to go around the sun. So, it will conjunct Uranus four times before we're done with Uranus and Gemini. And you can go back 84 years when Uranus was the last time it was in Gemini. And it was 1941 to 1948. And the Mars Uranus conjunctions matched up pretty well with some pretty pivotal events during World War II. And then you go back another 84 years and you have the Civil War, 1861 to 1867 or something like that. And then you go back another 84 years and you have the Revolutionary War, the 17 1768 to 1785, I believe. So all of that's going to So you're going to have this Mars Uranus conjunction in Gemini on July 4th. Can't make this stuff up. And so there might be some intense stuff that this country, the United States, is potentially going to be going through around that time. But this configuration right here is almost like, you know, the silver lining, the clouds parting, like there's there's hope kind of energy. I haven't really deconstructed this. I mean, there's a lot here, but I expect it to be a harmonious type energy. So, I know we've gone past the month, but >> it's nice to know like a little preview into what's coming also for your vacation plans. >> Totally. Yeah. I was telling all my clients last year, you know, don't make any plans to do go anywhere, do anything until after we get past like, you know, say March 15th, March 20th. Why? Well, because February is going to have some stuff happen and you just don't know. And I still had some people that that made uh plans to go to Portto Viarta and Cancun in February and you know a couple of them were there when things happened and it's just you know you just never know. It's not like I was saying don't go here, don't go here. It's just there's the energy is not like anybody has ever seen alive. So I don't want to tell you it's okay or not okay. You know even people who trade the financial markets this has been some crazy energy. >> Yeah. Yeah, >> absolutely. And I I highly recommend anyone that's like watching that feels confused or whatever to do a one-on-one session with your personal chart with the energy coming up with Tom because >> it's it's detailed detailed. >> Yeah, we record it because it's kind of like drinking from the fire hose. So, >> save like a session with me as well. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Oh, that's funny. Um, what was the It just walked in and slipped away. Um, I had a session with >> Well, it's just gone now. >> Well, the other thing I can mention is is, you know, the the the resonance papers. >> Yes. >> That I have. So, it's an analog newsletter. So, I mean, it's nothing fancy. It's not like a glossy magazine, but it's got 24 pages of good data for the month. And it's done by the calendar month, and you get it in the mail. You can hold it, you can look through it, and it's kind of like a field manual for the whole month metaphysically and uh astrologically as far as how to handle the energies of what's coming in. So, if you're interested in that, we'll put a link somewhere in the comments or the description. Do you follow the Schuman resonance and the solar flares stuff? Um yeah, >> I watch uh Stefon Burns. Have you seen him? >> I don't think so. >> Yeah. Go find Stefon Burns on YouTube. He's an astrophysicist or geoysicist and he always throws up, >> you know, he's got a green screen, so he always throws up like this the the sun with all of the different filters and he talks about what's happening and he's got the skills and he's got the language. And then he'll shift to the Schuman graphics behind him. He'll he'll look at the volcanic activity. He'll look all over the planet and show you here's an here's an earthquake here. And then he'll go to the anti-nodal. He'll go through the planet and show you the other side of the planet and predict that that's where the next quake will be and it happens like so >> Stefon Burns is pretty cool. He's he's he's young like us, you know, >> and >> and he he's someone that gets dialed into all of that. And he's also a follower of astrology in his videos. He he likes to just call it resonant energy for the planets, which is great, you know, keep keep his audience straight and narrow. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. But yes, I totally follow all that. >> Okay. I love that. That's so cool. And for anyone who doesn't know about Schuman resonance and solar flares, the Schuman resonance is essentially uh well I'm sure you have better framework of um verbiage for it, but the heartbeat of the planet >> well it's the base frequency of the planet 7.83 hertz and there are harmonics to that that that Schuman resonance graph that everybody probably sees in their social media posts about oh my god we're getting blasted when usually there's just one line at 7.83 83 hertz. But if that energy gets pretty intense, it'll hit the next harmonics of that 7.83. And usually those graphs will show when it when it hits kind of like the third or fourth harmonic when it's really vibing. >> Yeah, you can definitely feel it. Sometimes sometimes I'm like, got to go check it because something felt wrong or >> Oh, yeah. And it's interesting to watch it as it relates to the solar activity. >> Yes. >> And how and how they almost it's almost not a Newtonian thing so much as it's a quantum entanglement thing. It because you know when you see the solar winds come off the sun. Oh, we've got about what two to three days before we get the northern lights. We'll get you know two to three days before we might see any interruption with telecommunications. But when you have it actually the moment it happens on the sun, you see the Earth react to it instantaneously through those human resonance graphs. >> It's pretty nuts. >> Yeah, it's interesting. And if anyone is curious too, there's an app you can get called me agent >> um and it does uh solar flares um and it does it based on your location. It does temperature, barometics, humidity, UV index, air quality, and it does also the human resonance. And this is the free version. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> It's a cool one. Yeah. So, I'm kind of modeling some of this for what we're building um on the next phases because it's nice to log in and know what are the planets, what is this planet and the other planets and all the energy doing that's outside of me and then how does it relate to me? And being able to identify and compartmentalize energy makes you feel a lot ser. >> Oh, it's so much better than the way we grew up. What is the way we grew up? Okay, we we we read the paper in the morning. We watch the news, you know, we we have, you know, then the internet comes along and we have our my Yahoo page where we've, >> you know, all the news that we want for all the different things that we want. No, this is the way of the future. >> You don't need to know necessarily if it's raining outside. You need to know >> if Jupiter's going direct, damn it. I planned my whole day around it. >> This is the new farmer's almanac. >> Absolutely. Absolutely. >> Yeah. >> That's why we got to keep doing these weather reports, these cosmic weather reports. >> Absolutely. Because like the more ter the more terminology like we can bring into like regular conversations too, the more people educate themselves. And I think it's funny because a lot of people are like, "Oh, I don't believe in astrology." But first of all, it's not something you believe in. It's like a language. It's >> not a belief system. >> It's not even a belief system. >> Yeah. You don't need to believe in it and we don't really care if you do. It's not It's a language. It's a way to make sense of things. It's a make way to make sense of ourselves. It's a make way to make sense of others. It's a way to look at yourself from a a different perspective without judgment. It's a really beautiful tool and there's so many different pieces of it. I only know western. Tom is uh blessing me with his information of other pieces of the astrology, but it's so fascinating. Maybe you could talk a little bit about >> Yeah. the difference. >> We're running out of time. >> Well, real quick, Vadic astrology again, it found me. So, I didn't even know the difference or anything at the time. And so, what I like about Vadic astrology, it it is it has been for the most part untouched for millennia. Okay. There has not been an interruption in the society of India enough to where all the techniques and all the the practical experience and wisdom that's been gained of using these techniques for centuries has all been pretty much intact. But you get western astrology and at some point in the past the library of Alexandria burnt down. And not only that, but you had a lot of religious and scientific persecution for several hundred years. So there was a time when western astrology kind of got interrupted in its use. It was repressed. It was hidden. I mean even now um there are techniques in western astrology that I didn't even know existed. For example in Vadic astrology they have cycles or dashas. >> So you can see what dasha somebody's in. You know their main mahadasha and then their subdashas their btis. Okay. But it kind of sucked that Western astrology didn't have that. Well, I just found out that they've been translating ancient Greek scrolls that had not been translated yet. And they found a whole set of scrolls that went into cycles that they used in Western astrology called zodiacal releasing, which is pretty interesting. And so you only have one generation of western astrologers on this planet right now living that has been able to see these translations after not being read for, you know, however long, right? Millennium. >> Wow. >> And and so they've had the chance to, you know, translate it and then try them out. And there's only been about 20 years, 10 10 20 years of just practical use of a of a technique that's been buried for for centuries. >> That's wild. Yeah. So, so with western astrology to me it was kind of I don't know it it only had so much to give in terms of techniques. Vadic astrology as far as I'm concerned you could spend your entire life learning everything there can be about Vic astrology every day 20 hours a day and you by the end of your life would still only get through 20% of it. >> There's that much >> crazy. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> So >> it's not something you believe in. Well, it's somebody like me who gets bored pretty quickly, this is something that constantly will keep me interested and intrigued for the rest of my life. Yeah, it's >> western astrology has its has its place and it has it has things that help. For example, outer planets >> I mean if you go to India traditionally they will still negate using the outer planets because you can't see them with the naked eye. So you go back to ancient Sumerian or Babylonian um astrology in the tablets and the ununiform you know there is no mention of the three outer planets but you know you get to 17 what was it 1781 or two they discovered Uranus well it was like oh well we found another planet let's give it some meaning well what's been going on around this planet you know let's give it some meaning same with Neptune around 1850 >> and then Pluto so to me it is very clear that those planets influence us very clear. You can go back in time, see when things happen, and you can replay that into the future and go, "Yep, same energy." >> Mhm. >> So that's why I kind of blend the two is that there there's to me astrology is hopelessly fragmented on this planet with Chinese, Tajjika, shamanic. I mean, there's so much astrology out there, but a lot has been lost. A lot have been lost in translation and a lot has been lost in subjective interpretation over the years. >> And so a lot of times I always picked teachers that would go straight to the Sanskrit and read the sutras and interpret them themselves instead of, you know, reading what what some freak in the 1800s thought about it. >> Yeah. >> And and so >> there is supposed to be a golden age of astrology in the future. We just we're not there yet. Wow. >> We have to bring it all together. It's like bringing the puzzle pieces together. >> Yeah. >> Awesome. Well, speaking of puzzle pieces, this is a really good piece of the puzzle because I think I this uh series is just going to be a really really cool one. Uh one bringing in that logic with the light and uh also that really nice masculine energy. So, thank you. I know we don't have a whole lot of masculine energy on our platform yet, but it is coming. Um and a lot of things are coming for this community. So, if you're new to our community, we're the Academy of Logic and Light. We have a platform uh here on Patreon. We have other things up and coming. You can catch up on um who we are, what we do on academy oflogicandlite.com. And if you want to join our community and see the workshops and all the cool events and things and practitioners and you just want community support, we have women's groups, men's groups. Uh a rage portal is being built out right now. It's going to be really cool. And yeah. Um, a rage portal. >> I'm building a rage portal. >> A rage portal like Okay. All right. >> Yeah. Um, it's so far it's in the like very beginning stages, but it's accessible for the masculine and the feminine energy and all the energy in between. Um, and then it'll be split off into masculine rage and feminine rage with grief circles, support systems, uh, ways to process and transmute, um, ideas, uh, on how to channel it and where to put the energy. Um, so that's all coming. And we've got some cool events uh, popping up that uh, rage room for one, uh, rage circles where we just pop up at like 9:55 somewhere and scream and then evacuate. Wow, >> we got a channel. There's a lot of feelings right now and nobody knows with them. >> We have to create containers for this rage. Okay, >> we do healthy ones so we don't flip cars like the Super Bowl. >> Yeah, we don't want to go outside with trench coats and oozies. Definitely not. >> Yeah, I don't even want to go outside >> to be perfectly honest. I have to be bribed out there. But yeah, so there's going to be some cool ones. Uh, and yeah, you have to stay tuned. You have to subscribe and find out. But we'll be back here um monthlyish. >> Yeah. >> When it works for us. >> Yeah. >> When we're in the flow. Um, again, I cannot recommend getting a reading enough with Tom. Um, and sub subscribe to his uh YouTube channel, uh, Tik Tok social media. It's all below his website so you can get more information and the analog newsletter which I think is so cool. Um, and that's all I have. Do you have anything else to add before? >> Uh, not that I can think of. No, just uh just Yeah, it I always like to tell my clients when when these things happen, you know, take some moments to be present and and and you know, just when you always try to remember to breathe throughout the day, try to feel this Jupiter direct energy, you know, I mean, it's going to be sitting on a degree here for the next three weeks and it's going to be changing to direct over these next few days. So feel how you felt about certain things over the last four months and feel into how that's shifting over the next few days because it's always good to get acclimated to these shifts of energies because it because for most people it's subtle. You're not going to notice this stuff unless somebody points it out. So it's a it's a it's a big enough it's a significant enough celestial event to practice feeling into the energy. Yeah. Yeah, I love that. And also when you're able to separate the big world energies from your own energy, again, we come back to it all makes a lot more sense and it's easier to manage. Um, what was I going to Oh, I was going to say if for anyone if any of these words felt like too much or the astrology too much, there's over 60 free astrology classes that breaks down every planet, every sign, every element, how to read a birth chart, and it's all free um in our other um videos. So, uh, feel free to go and check out the Mercury video, the Jupiter video. Um, there's parts in there where L talks about which signs are luckier in which things and what are your lucky charms um, items for every sign. So, go check those out as well and then stay tuned for exciting exciting things. >> Sounds good. Yay. >> Thank you, Tom. And we will see you soon. >> Yeah. Thank you. Thanks for having me.
