As both collective and individual energies shift, Andrea and Emily explore the profound impacts on personal lives and the broader political climate. They open up about recording in this post-election energy, sharing personal experiences of being in a liminal space filled with intense emotions. The discussion moves through the themes of collective grief and adjustment, where both hosts talk about experiencing a strong sense of knowing and connection, even amidst technical glitches and setbacks from their long-term outlook episode recorded in June. Our listeners are encouraged to embrace the importance of self-care and community support during these transitional times and emphasize the need to hold and share individual light within the collective flame, ensuring voices remain strong post-election. Emily and Andrea stress the importance of maintaining momentum, especially regarding social and political engagement.

Tarot insights offered during the episode highlight themes of collaboration, unexpected small victories, and practical tips for managing the chaotic energy of the holidays.
