Ra Ma: 00:02:44

Welcome, we're here snuggled up for another episode of Stars, Stones and stories. And we've gone through a potent week of astrology. As Mercury met up with Pluto at the last few degrees of Capricorn. Then Mercury shifted into the sign of Aquarius and around the 14th and 15th, Tuesday and Wednesday, we had the merging of Venus and Neptune in Pisces bringing in a lot of beautiful mystical love. And then on Thursday, the Sun conjunct Saturn in Aquarius and Mercury also squaring the nodes of fate Mercury in Aquarius, the North Node in Taurus and the South Node in Scorpio. So we're coming to this Friday, this Venus day, having been through some interesting different energies but definitely concluding with a bit of tension and restraint and feeling the limitations of living in this world and where there are rules and where there are regulations and where we're bound by the past and we want to move into the future but we feel limited or stuck or afraid.

Ra Ma: 00:04:06

So as we come to this Venus day this Friday, Mercury in Aquarius is sextiling Jupiter in Aries. And this is at the early degrees and mercury as being that mind soul connection that governs our thinking and our intelligence and our communication in the sign of Aquarius. It's very innovative and it wants to speak from the future. And think about how there's just been this upsurge of artificial intelligence apps. I'm seeing all these feeds popping in and different social media platforms around AI and advertisements for them and I saw this video pop into my YouTube feed basically telling us how AI was going to take over all jobs within like the next 200 years. And what does all of this mean for us as humanity? You know, like, how do we fit into this world if everything is automated, and a computer can like write a paper out in five seconds, what does that mean for our critical thinking skills and our memory retention and our ability to experience the present moment, it's all very interesting.

Ra Ma: 00:05:25

And I would say this Mercury sextile in Jupiter is facilitating a moment for us to reflect because Jupiter is a social teaching planet, it wants to bring in brightness, it wants to evolve situations, it's a planet of expansion, and bringing in spiritual wealth, and success. And in Aries, it's the frequency of "I am" and identity and how one has purpose in the world. And so we can see how there's a lot of exciting possibilities with artificial intelligence helping us in our work. I mean, just as an entrepreneur who has been working in an on my business consciously since 2014, and the amount of things administrative, things I have to do on the computer has only increased. In fact, in the last three years, it has like tripled, compared to what it used to be. And so there's a part of me that thinks about the beauty of AI, you know, like, not having to sit or stand with a computer and having more time to do the things I want to enjoy in life. Like, being with my daughter playing a game, sharing a story, going on a walk, like, you know, just really like being in the present moment. However, I also wonder what will those present moments be like for us? What will this world be like when we've focused so hard on mining and extracting these natural resources to support this technology? I mean, it's a real turning point that we're at, and there's a lot to consider and contemplate. And I think that we're all collectively unconsciously sifting through these grains of sand, and wondering how things are going to land.

Ra Ma: 00:07:21

And it makes sense too, because the sun on Saturday, the 18th of February, shifts into the sign of Pisces, and the sun is our access moon day. And it's where we're most consciously aware. And it goes into the most kind of unconscious energy, meaning that Pisces really rules the dream realm and the imagination and its water energy, and it's immutable. And it's universal. So it's so focused with collective energy. And there's a real turning point for us in this year of 2023. As far as with the growth of technology and the acceleration of AI, how does our humanity fit into this? What are our values as humans? And how are we living our lives to support these values. And Pisces wants to help for us to imagine those values into full realization, and to really be that artist, that mystic, the priestess, the priest to use our intuition and our sensitivity to birth for a reality that will help humans thrive. And this Pisces season is a really activated time for you to notice where you struggle with boundaries, where you want to avoid reality where you check it out and go into different modes of addiction, whether it's like alcohol or Netflix, I saw a lot of green juice addiction in LA, I mean, we can be addicted to anything. And we can use our passion sometimes to not focus on the greater emotional spaces in our hearts. And sometimes that's for a really healthy part of our lives where we need that space. But sometimes we're just avoiding processing, the more painful experiences and these are all areas that can get awoken in this Pisces season. We do have Neptune which has been transiting through Pisces for a long time now. So the sun and Neptune will eventually be meeting up. And it is an interesting time because I do think a lot of people instead of really being present with our cultural renaissance that we're amidst. I think a lot of people would rather just check out then have to be concerned about what's going to happen in 10 years or 20 years from now, however, think especially those of us with young children or adolescents, teens, tweens, You know, we're living with the future now in the sense that my reality is so important because I have a beautiful daughter, and I want her to inherit an earth that is more loved and more conscious than the one I inherited. And I think it's important. We're all asking, you know, how are we helping to shift collective reality,

Ra Ma: 00:10:22

because that's one of the most beautiful aspects of astrology that I love is like, it helps me to decipher and tune into collective reality, to know where collective reality might go and how I might influence it in a positive and expansive way. So this Pisces season is going to give you a lot of opportunities to go into your dreams, your waking dreams, your sleeping dreams, the imagination, magic, and it's amazing because I have this amazing pilgrimage I'm offering to Egypt this June during the solstice, and it's so focused on the dream realm. And I finally got the invitation ready around the same time I was preparing for this podcast, and it's so aligned because there's so much Pisces energy in this week's astrology. And it makes sense that this is when I was finally able to deliver this invitation. I've been working on it for nearly two weeks. And sometimes these invitations for these pilgrimages just take extra focus because there's a particular frequency that is coming to be birthed through the pilgrimage. And I have to... it's like the gestation period really happens as I'm creating the invitation, which yes, is like an incubation. And it's so funny because this pilgrimage is called Dream seed incubation with a blue lotus. So as I'm sharing this week's transmission with you, I'm just having other layers of awareness coming through and really loving the synchronicities that are at hand here.

Ra Ma: 00:12:09

As we come to Sunday, the 19th of February we have Venus sextile Pluto, and this happens at 12:04pm. We have Venus, she is finishing her journey in Pisces, and she's coming to that tail end degree as this Goddess that represents our art, our creativity, our sensuality, how we relate to others, the social world culture at large. Venus is like this elder sister to Earth and she's transmitting the art of living how to be in total elegance and in Pisces. Venus is exalted, she's so comfortable, she's so romantic, she loves her flowers, she loves her poetry, and she's really combining in a loving, beautiful way as Pluto and Capricorn is also finishing its long journey since 2008 will first dip into Aquarius next month in March of 2023. So Pluto in Capricorn, this planet, this force of judgment, of power, of death of transformation is in the visionary CEO of the zodiac sign of Capricorn, very enterprising, very pragmatic, very grounded and productive, but also sometimes too fear based, too focused. And so it's like Venus and Pluto are coming hand in hand. And this is right before Monday's New Moon. So this is occurring at the Dark of the Moon, the balsamic phase of the moon, as there's an opportunity to really reflect this whole first lunar cycle of 2023. And the intentions you put out with that first Aquarius New Moon, with Uranus stationing direct just after the new moon so you have this opportunity to look back to reflect and to take stock because now the energy is about to go up a few notches and when we get to march the energy level is like going up way more and this month of February, it's really our last kind of quiet month for a while so we want to enjoy it and we've got the Pisces New Moon on Monday at 2:06am. Eastern Standard Time. Now as we know the New Moon is when the sun and moon meet up and they marry and this moon in Pisces is such a beautiful time to connect with your dream to go deeper into your dream your waking dream your sleeping dreams. Your visions, your imagination, your most mystical, creative, imaginative self is looking for you to come into that deeper innocence. And this is the last New Moon of this zodiacal year which will be refreshed renewed with the Aries New Moon in March when we open up a brand new zodiacal year, and just about 50 minutes after the New Moon, Venus will shift from Pisces where she's really comfortable to areas where she is extremely uncomfortable. Because Venus is all about how we relate and Aries is all about "I am", and really has a hard time relating because it's so focused on identity and courageousness and pioneering a new path. So when Venus comes into Aries, it does create more time and space to look at how it is you do relate and where you feel really aligned and where you could be evolving your relationships. It's also a good time to check out that Aries part of your chart as it is getting a bit of an upgrade. And definitely getting some more passion and creativity. And I think the Venus in Aries transit, whenever it comes through, it always reminds us like it is good, it is important to be focused on our own personal needs and self care and self love. And also, it's important to look beyond our navel and the tips of our toes, you know until like, really open our consciousness and see all of the amazing gifts that we have surrounding us and bestowing our lives in this "here and now" moment. I think it's a beautiful time to sink deeper into your gratitude. And with that I would love to extend an invitation.

Ra Ma: 00:17:08

If you're feeling the call to pilgrim I am offering two very unique, very potent pilgrimages this year, in 2023. Each pilgrimage I offer is like birthing a new baby. Each one has its own unique theme and frequencies that wish to be experienced. And there's really like a higher call with this work. It's very, very special, very transcendental from the fourth through 16th. We will be traveling in Avalon and Wales. It's called tending the dragon lines. And absolutely, we're working with Dragon frequency with the ley lines of the Earth, with the voices of the stones, the stories of the stars, and we're coming together in such a powerful way. There's still space however, there's a lot of people who are putting in applications or about to so if you're interested, I definitely encourage you to write if you have not yet received the full invitation. And if you're considering it and you just like need to connect, we can always connect and have a call or video chat to answer some questions because I do think spaces will be filled within the next week or two.

Ra Ma: 00:18:33

Dream seed incubation with a blue lotus is a trip to Egypt from the 14th through the 29th of June, a very, very deep, powerful pilgrimage where we go into the dream realm, the waking dream, the sleeping dream, the visionary space where you have this opportunity to really restore your own original blueprint, to dissolve the old paradigms and to work with the powerful waters that we're going to be engaging in. We will be working with the Blue Lotus and connecting with it in various ways. And of course working with the whole Neteru and all the beautiful beings in the spaces we're gonna go to in Luxor, in Giza and in Siwa. It's a very special journey.
