AND SO IT IS

Woah! It’s a Friday the 13th! And both the Retrogrades have ended! And the Sun is in Human Design’s Gate of the Breakthrough! And the Schumann Resonance is has returned after a 2 week outage!

I dunno, you really can’t make all this up. All this & more in today’s Energy Reading, with some good post-Retrograde debrief questions for your own reflection.

We have a beautiful triangle of fire in the sky today, as the Moon, Chiron, and that wild Leo conjunction are united by a series of trines. And this, on the final day of both Venus & Mercury Retrogrades! It feels like a moment to stoke the fire within and burn away all that no longer fits within us.

I hope you consider all that you have overcome this last month, and give yourself a bit of gratitude for all of it. This is a fleeting transition, and soon we will be asked to put our learnings into action. But for now, feel the warmth of the sun on your face.

Today is a good day to let something go. Put it to rest! Allow yourself to move on, once and for all.

So, the Schumann is still down. And I have been low-energy for a few days now. In the absence of the Schumann, I tend to turn inward and notice my own capacity. And lately, all I want to do is sleep. I’ve been walking about in a dream-land for a few days now, sluggish & foggy.

I’ve noticed this often correlates with BIG shifts in my life! Like my body is processing something my mind isn’t able to access quite yet. While I used to fight the dips and push through them, I have learned to be patient with myself during these periods and use them to rest.

Sometimes, when we don’t have the answers yet, that’s exactly what we’re meant to do: be soft with ourselves. It’s like making a little nest for the next thing to arrive.

It’s quiet. Too quiet? The Schumann remains down, and Mars enters its Retrograde Shadow Period. The Retrograde won’t start until January, but Mars Retrogrades tend to last at least 2 months. So by the time we arrive at April, we will return to today’s placement: 21° Leo.

Notice what’s alive for you today. Notice how you feel about it. You may feel differently in 5-6 months.

The Schumann is STILL DOWN. That’s crazy-pants. We are officially missing days of data, and in the absence of information, it’s up to us to draw our own conclusions. So: what do you believe is possible for you?

With our most change-prone astral bodies all in the early degrees of Air signs today, there is a hum of potential energy whirring in the background. Maybe it’s because I slept so well last night (lol), but wow, today just feeeeeeels like magic. So go make the most of it!

Today is a day to put down your burden, release your grip, and allow an old chapter to close. There are things you cannot take with you into your bright future. They are being shown to you during this Retrograde period, so you can remove the obstacles to your growth. Notice what they are today — even if you don’t know what to do about them yet. Understanding is the first step.

I know we do this every day. But this one, especially, is worth a listen. It is a day of power & potential. Of release & transformation. It is a day to release old stories & embrace new possibility. To decide who you want to be next — and what we ALL, together, desire for our collective.

Make your choice. Hold your vision. Create an expectation, and trust it will be fulfilled.

And So It Is. Meg

As the astrological intensity ebbs, the Schumann Resonance goes down. In the absence of information, we are free to come to our own conclusions — and with extra boost of motivation from our Moon-Mars-Jupiter conjunction today, what you do next is up to you. As it always is! But you may find an extra surge of power today that comes from within, and mysterious circumstances that rise to meet your expectations.

So first, you must evaluate your expectations. Your biggest block is not some external force. It is the naysayer within you, holding onto your own limitations. And only you can remove it.

The astrology of October continues to challenge us, and the tarot pull today gave us the Page of Wands for the third time in a row! Along with the Hermit, asking us to go within & reclaim that creative, joyful spirit.

Over the weekend, we’ll have a Quarter Moon in Leo — this is a perfect moment to take stock and decide if you’re proud of the way you’ve handled these last three weeks… or if you could have showed up differently. It’s not a time to measure your results or what ‘could have been.’ Just pay attention way you feel about your own performance.

And once you determine what you might do better next time, let it go.
