Happy Solstice, Christmas and New Years! Home Invasion, sadly anyone can be a victim of a home invasion and it's a subject that feels too real for a lot of movie fans. There are some thing's you can do to make it less likely to happen (motion sensor lights, remember to lock doors/windows, video doorbells & reinforced doors). Heath from That's So Random:A Randsom Movie Podcast & myself discuss home invasion movies and the vast variety of them.

Happy Solstice!   As we do every December solstice it's time for our 7th Annual "Best Of" episode of 3 Books.   3 Books is our 22-year-long conversation to uncover and discuss the 1000 most formative books in the world.   This year we sat with ​academics at Oxford​ to ​bus drivers in St. Louis​, with ​Jonathan Franzen​ in Santa Cruz to ​Oliver Burkeman​ in the North York Moors, with the ​world's largest bookseller​ and ​Amazon union organizers​, with ​Oscar nominees​ to a ​guy who dresses up all day as as a duck​.   This year I've changed tack and made the "Best Of" highly concentrated—under 50 minutes long!—with little snippets from our diverse guests to provide reflection, provoke your thinking, and help to set intentions for 2025 and beyond.   Thank you for being a 3 Booker and spending time with this incredible community of book lovers spread across the world.   Let's stop to reflect and then keep enjoying the ride....

Happy Solstice! In this episode, I discuss what mean by solstice-inspired rest, why you should rest over the winter break, how to rest, and what to do if you find rest difficult. Overall, rest can do magic, but takes courage, especially for academics. I have a wish that you practice trusting the process.

This week's notes: Happy solstice! That's the start of the week, and Capricorn season begins! This is honestly going to be a dense week, there's a lot going on. It's a lot to balance, and will require that you are grounded, silently working, and keeping focus in your areas of growth. You can do this. I'm so looking forward to this energy shift. I feel like all of Sagittarius season was lifting us up and out of the Death that scorpio season offered to us- plus Pluto in Aquarius now. The world is about to be looking very different. December 21 starts Capricorn Season- A return of sacredness This whole season is like the hierarchies of our world are finally released from the grips of the underworld. Finally, we are able to breathe again and let the systems be what it is. Capricorn explained as the way that Time and Order shape shift- how the systems and hierarchies change because of that shapeshifting. And, because the sun is in Capricorn it will have to do with self. Check out your 10H, Capricorn House, Saturn placement- and for this year, Saturn is in Pisces. Spiritual shapeshifting abound. We're also going to be seeing how over the previous 17 years we've spiritually shapeshifter into who we want to be AND- probably my favorite thing actually, we'll be able to see spiritually how our work on an individual level has shapeshifter our lineage and ancestry in THE SPIRIT. What legacy are you leaving behind? This season leaves us the answers, not just clues.  This season, in application, will also ask that we are shapeshifting into the new year spiritually. Practices, disciplines, etc- it will also ask that we have clarity in the Saturn in Pisces transit that started in March of 2023. What did you start around that time ^, we'e being asked to get clear on wrapping up that transofmraiton and transition for when Saturn enters Aries in 2025. So, larger clarity and direction. SPIRITUAL ACTIVITY WILL BE RAMPANT THIS SEASON. Stay grounded. Remain focused. This is preparation for when Saturn is in Aries and our Order is ruled by War.  Dec 20-22 third quarter moon in virgo (check out last week's episode for more info on that)- basics are that we're grounding the disruption from the full moon in Gemini earlier in the week on Sunday. December 23-24 moon in Libra with the Dark Moon and the South Node If this chapter of Libra South Node has asked a lot of you- expect the clearing to become clear during this moon.  We're headed into darkness, and the dark moon's involved. If you've been doing your feminine healing work- it's going to be time to reclaim some power in those dark spaces, and apply them as needed. This magic is shifty, silent, and works in ways that cannot be articulated. With the spiritual activity that can be expected for this season, keep awareness of the dark spirits- good or bad- and how you're being influenced by them. This will also help to keep you grounded. December 25-27 moon in scorpio Interesting moon placement with the 25th being symbolic of a time of rebirth.

It is December 21st 2024 and it is the shortest day and longest night. As the wind blows away the stale air and we welcome in earthy Capricorn season, take time to reflect. May I wish you all a Happy Christmas and thank you for being a part of my Soul Family. For personal sessions and our community www.numbers4success.com and www.patreon.com/numbers4success

Happy Solstice!The Solstice portals are always a powerful time for me. A time for reflection and celebration.A time to release and re-align.This Solstice was super special for me as I had the privilege of guiding a group of amazing women in my community through a sensual breathwork journey.It was such a beautiful reminder of just how potent sisterhood can be.Maybe it feels so extra sweet to me because I didn't always feel safe in community with other women.I've heard from so many women who have felt similarly.I feel it's one of the most toxic aliments to come out of the patriarchy.But it doesn't have to be that way.If the sisterhood wound is a such a common affliction. What's the remedy?Women joining together to celebrate the radiance, power and magic of their unique expression of the sacred feminine.Let's dive in!Sign up for The Venusian Summer Series:https://shakticore.com/venusian-summer

In this episode, we delve deep into the concept of the Divine Mother, the power of love and provide 7 tips and techniques to tap into the energies of the Divine Mother within. By connecting with the Divine Mother within ourselves, we can access the transformative power of love and compassion, fostering healing and growth in both our personal and collective journeys.Here are some practical tips and techniques to nurture our inner sense of love and care:1. Connect with Nature:Spending time in nature can be a powerful way to connect with the nurturing energy of the Divine Mother. Take walks in the park, sit by a tree, or spend time in a garden. Allow yourself to feel the interconnectedness of all living beings and the healing presence of nature's abundance.2. Practice Self-Compassion:Practice self-compassion by treating yourself with the same kindness and understanding that you would offer to a beloved friend. Be gentle with yourself, acknowledge your worth, and offer yourself forgiveness and grace in moments of struggle or self-doubt.3. Meditation and Reflection:Set aside time for quiet reflection and meditation to connect with your inner Divine Mother. Visualize yourself surrounded by a warm, loving light that nurtures and supports you. Allow yourself to receive this loving energy and extend it outward to others.4. Creative Expression:Engage in creative activities that allow you to tap into your nurturing and expressive energy. Whether it's painting, writing, dancing, or singing, find ways to channel your emotions and connect with your inner source of creativity and love.5. Cultivate Relationships:Nurture your connections with loved ones and cultivate meaningful relationships that embody love, compassion, and understanding. Practice active listening, empathy, and kindness in your interactions with others, fostering a sense of unity and care.6. Practice Self-Love and Self-Care:Prioritize self-love and self-care practices that nurture your mind, body, and spirit. Engage in activities that bring you joy and replenish your energy, such as taking long baths, reading a good book, practicing yoga, or spending time in nature.7. Gratitude Practice:Cultivate a practice of gratitude to acknowledge the blessings in your life and express appreciation for the abundance around you. Take time each day to reflect on the things you are grateful for, fostering a sense of love, contentment, and connection with the divine energy within you.The importance of self-love and self-care in nurturing our inner Divine Mother cannot be overstated. By prioritizing our well-being, setting boundaries, and treating ourselves with kindness and respect, we create the conditions for our inner nurturing energy to flourish. When we care for ourselves with love and compassion, we are better able to extend that love outward to others and embody the transformative power of the Divine Mother in our daily lives.Happy Solstice!Dr. Mensimah Shabazz*Music: Sanctuary of the Goddess by Wizard Azanon (Jeffery St. Rose)*For One on One Consultations: Please send Email to: info@mensimah.comSubscribe/support our channelsJoin our Reflective/Inner Work Platform: https://mensimah.com/compose-a-new-narrativehttps://www.mensimah.com/9-dollar-a-monthContact Links:Website: https://mensimah.comInstagram: @mensimahshabazzphdYouTube: @mensimahsroundtableShop: shop.mensimah.com

Happy Solstice! This episode kicks off the Summer 2024 season. I describe the importance of using the solstice as a natural stepping stone toward your career wellness destination--a time where you can reflect on where you are and where you're going. I offer one strategy to doing seasonal discernment and invite you to try it on for yourself: block off discernment time in your calendar, select a yes/no question about your career wellness destination, open space for answers to emerge, and once you have the answer, make plans to take action in the direction of your answer.

Happy Solstice! At the time of this recording, Yule is officially upon us and Christmas is just days away! This is the time when many of us start thinking that we haven't done “enough”. We worry that we haven't bought enough, baked enough, sent enough cards etc. These thoughts of not "enough-ness" wear us down and deny us of our sense of contentment. This episode is all about embracing “good enough”. Whether you've checked everything off your list, or barely scratched the surface, allow yourself to appreciate where you're at while enjoying the gifts in front of you. At the end of the day, it's enough and so are you!

Widespread beliefs are restrictive in nature, And create a sense of lack. It's my job to break through old stories I'm told, To bring joy and abundance back.☉

Do you know how to create peace on earth? According to Mother Mary, it's not by praying for peace, but rather praying FROM peace. Mother Mary taught me how to pray from peace a few years ago and asked me to share it with others, which I have done a few times. But when war broke out in the Holy Land, She asked me to make this teaching more widely available. In this week's episode, not only will I share the ‘Pray FROM Peace Guided Meditation with Mother Mary' with you, but as my holiday gift to you, I have made the mp3 of this meditation available for you to download and keep. Just click here for the show notes. Happy Solstice! Merry Christmas! Belated Happy Hannukah! Happy Kwanza! Happy Everything! “Do not pray for peace, pray FROM peace. Become peaceful, and then expand your peace to the world. This is the way to achieve peace on earth.” Mother Mary   To download the FREE MP3 of this meditation, click here Click here to join the Magnify Your Miracles membership If you love the image on the wall behind me of Mother Mary Blessing the World, you can order your own museum quality copy at www.deepaliu.com

The winter solstice is upon us! Too many of us enter the darker months with a feeling of dread, but what if it didn't have to be this way? The solstice is a time to embrace the return of the light and rejoice in the gifts that the colder months have to offer.

Shannon will offer ideas for solstice celebration and Cate will share positive winter practices inspired by the Nordic and Scandinavian culture.

The Winter Solstice is almost here! What better time to sit in front of the old yule log, surrounded by fragrant evergreens and mistletoe?! The Christmas season can sometimes feel overwhelming with so much commercialism and fanfare, but the solstice reminds us to slow down, reconnect with nature, and gather with loved ones around a simple, cozy fire. Take some time this season to remember what this sacred time of year has to teach us...  even when the cold and dark feels endless, the light will return... trust in that. Happy Solstice!

Happy Solstice! Most of us knew John Durham was a political hack. Today, opening his mouth in the House, he removed all doubt; may have even lied under oath. "Lock him up!" I guess we're fascinated with the ongoing search for some really stupid billionaires who took a ride in a "janky libertarian death thermos." Macabre? Yes. Understandable? Also yes. Marge & LorLor ain't friends no more. The 7th Grade Prom should be a real dramafest.

Happy Solstice friends! In honor of Solstice, you're invited to take 20% off 3 months of membership inside The Elemental Entrepreneurship Coven. On today's episode I'm sharing two short clips that were originally shared inside the Coven group. In the first, I talk a bit about what areas of business are contained in each element, and how to use the elements when you're feeling stuck or out of balance. I also discuss seasonal goals in business, and how to join your seasonal goal with an elemental focus to help you accomplish your goals. In the second clip, I talk about the feeling of "failing" as it pertains to a 21 Day Challenge we did inside the group (with "failing" meaning "I'm not doing the challenge activity every day"), and what I'd rather us focus on when we give ourselves challenges or goals that's more interesting and nuanced than succeed/fail.   Outside of private coaching, The Coven is where I hang out every day and answer questions, give feedback, and support creatives in building their businesses. It's the coolest place on the internet for entrepreneurs.   Join us now: https://www.intuitiveedgecoaching.com/coven and use code SOLSTICE20 at checkout on any membership level.

Happy Solstice, fam! We're joined by Megan Liebmann in this nourishing convo covering this potent time of year and turning point, as we experience the longest night of the year (in the Northern hemisphere) and move into Capricorn season. We discuss this upcoming Capricorn New Moon and its enhanced ability to bring fresh energy our way, plus how Chiron, the wounded healer, plays into our journey. We cover the energetic influences of cardinal earthy Capricorn + Saturn, ruling our bones and structure, and the invitation to nourish these parts of our Self and Work through supporting our foundations and breaking down old patterns that aren't in accordance with our authentic self and true path. We look at what this means for “tending and mending” in this time, feeding the backbone and collagen of our businesses and life, and the critical practice of identifying your authentic and core values. We share some nutritional tips to fuel our bodies (especially our bones + adrenals), including minerals (hello, magnesium!) and vitamin C, and fun ways to incorporate these powerful allies into our daily life. Sending you many blessings in this auspicious time of stillness, as we are guided to go within and reflect on our inner selves and inner pilot flames of life.    Find the Complete Show Notes Here => wildlyrooted.com/fywpodcast/wintersolstice2022   Resources: Subscribe :: Sign up for our newsletter to receive updates on upcoming programs and events   In The Episode We Talk About: Astro and new moon insights How to tend and mend in this time Building the backbone and collagen of our business Megan's favorite mantras right now  Identifying the things we need to fuel our bodies, and thereby feed and fuel our businesses The power of doing a pulse check and building foundation through identifying authentic and core values for your practice/Work, business and life Support & nutrients for the skeletal system, joints, adrenals, hair The power of honoring & composting before entering a new cycle Adrenal mocktails recipes What we're planning for the Winter Solstice   In The Episode: Dr. Demartini's Value Determination Process Lacy Philips & To Be Magnetic: Authentic Code Living Into Our Values with Brené Brown & Barrett Guillen   Leave us a Message!

Blessed Winter Solstice and final weeks of 2022! The energies are literally coming in HOT for this reading, and honestly, we're being asked to take a moment to ourselves. We are going to be receiving information from all directions and the lesson above all is to grant ourselves the chance to think before acting. To respond and not react! Additionally, we are seeing a spectrum of energies moving in two directions with the way we handle all of this bombardment of info. 1) We choose a new way of responding and choose to open up to others and gather the insights, strengths, skills, and support of those close to us. That we TRUST that these potential “enemies” actually can be ALLIES.♥️ 2) We essential double down on the path we're on and accept what it is we may have to sacrifice in order to achieve. That if we choose the path of “if we want it done right we gotta do it ourselves”, we may feel unlucky emotionally and potentially even isolated, burdened, and bitter

Happy Solstice, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa! - and a good old Happy Holidays to one and all this joyous season! In the skies this week: Jupiter re-enters Aries and brings an uncharacteristically jovian spirit to the Capricorn Solstice and the Capricorn New Moon. The Capricorn Venus trines Uranus shakes us up and freshens our outlook, and Mercury sextile Neptune melds imagination and reality. And April answers a listener's question about the out-of-bounds Moon. Read a full transcript of this episode. Have a question you'd like answered on the show?  Email April or leave it here! Subscribe to April's mailing list and get a free lunar workbook at each New Moon! Love the show? Make a donation! Timestamps [1:23] Jupiter re-enters Aries (Dec. 20 at 6:32 AM PST). Jupiter was in Aries from May 10 - October 27, 2022 before slipping back into Pisces by retrograde.  It will be in Aries until May 16th which is when it will enter Taurus for the first time in about twelve years. Jupiter in Aries asks us to take impulsive, pioneering risks of all kinds. [4:05] The Sun enters Capricorn (Dec. 21, 1:48 pm PST), marking the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. [5:22] This particular Capricorn Solstice is energized quite a bit by the Sun's square to Jupiter in Aries (Dec. 21, 4:51 PM PST at 00°07' of both signs). None of us is getting any younger, but it's never too late for a fresh start. [6:45] On Dec. 22 (1:48 PM PST), Venus trines Uranus at 15°21' Capricorn and Taurus.  Welcome an unexpected adventure in flavoring your oatmeal! [9:56] Moon Report!  The New Moon at 1°32' Capricorn will occur on Dec. 23 (2:17 AM PST.) The Sabian symbol for this New Moon is 2 Capricorn, Three stained glass windows, one broken. This lunation also squares Jupiter in Aries. Don't be afraid to break things open and move in a new direction. [11:09] This New Moon initiates a new Lunar Phase Family. The First Quarter Moon of this Lunar Phase Family occurs on September 22, 2023 (29°32' Sagittarius). The Full Moon of this series is on June 21, 2024 (1°7' Capricorn), and the Last Quarter Moon occurs on March 22, 2025 (2°5' Capricorn). Check out this video to see where in your life you are planting seeds that will grow throughout this Lunar Phase cycle. [15:54] Void-of-Course Moon (VOC) periods for this week. On Dec. 20, the Moon 27°19' Scorpio sextiles Pluto (Capricorn 27°19') at 6:45 PM PST.  It's VOC for about four and a half hours before it enters Sagittarius on 11:13 PM PST. Be like Elsa and “Let it Go.” [17:54] The Moon at 22°44' Sagittarius squares Neptune at the same degree in Pisces on Dec. 22nd at 12:16 PM PST. It will be VOC for just about eleven and a half hours (!!!) before the Moon enters Capricorn at 11:49 PM PST. Nostalgia is in the air. [19:43] On Dec. 24 (7:11 PM PST) the Moon conjoins Pluto at 27°26' Capricorn.  The Moon will be VOC for about four hours before it goes into Aquarius at 11:14 PM PST.  Get cuddly with a hot chocolate, a fireplace ambience video and feel all the feels. [21:52] Mercury makes a sextile to Neptune on Dec. 24 (5:17 PM PST), at 22°46' of Capricorn and Pisces. This is an excellent opportunity to blend the pragmatism of Mercury in Capricorn with our imaginative selves. [23:26] Listener Robin asks about an Out-of-Bounds Moon.  Here is the link to Steven Forrest's article on the topic. [29:02] If you have a burning question about astrology that you'd like April to answer on a future episode, please leave a voicemail of one minute or less at speakpipe.com/bigskyastrologypodcast or just send an email to april(at)bigskyastrology(dot)com.  Be sure to put “Podcast Question” in the subject line.
