Star Love Podcast Season 1 Episode 7 Featuring Psychic Cari Roy

New Orleans #1 Psychic Cari Roy.

New Orleans #1 Psychic Cari Roy.

On episode 7 of the Star Love Podcast we welcomed New Orleans’ #1 Psychic Cari Roy. I met Cari Roy at a hobnobber event, and we became fast friends. On the show we discussed having common roots in Philadelphia, how her parents sang opera professionally, and even an experience where as a young girl she sat on William F. Buckley’s lap! Cari is one of the smartest psychics you’ll ever meet, and it was a joy to talk with her about metaphysics, religion, skepticism, and how people starting out in a creative or non-traditional career path can succeed.

This episode was recorded on November 11, 2019, the date of a very special lunation where Mercury was cazimi, or in the heart of the sun, meaning Mercury was visually was right in the center of the sun. As mentioned in the podcast, this hit both Cari and my chart’s at very powerful points, so it was an interesting time to record this podcast. It was somewhat haphazard, the date we chose, as we had to reschedule a couple of times, but maybe it was divinely planned :). Or maybe just chance. Take your pick.

Granddaddy of 2020 Astrology: Saturn

There's been a lot of talk about the major transits of 2020. Popular topics include the Saturn/Pluto Conjunction, Mars in Aries, eclipses, and when the various planets go retrograde and direct. While all of these are important, I've found the most powerful planet to be Saturn. Why? Saturn is the most dignified i.e. he is in his home signs of Capricorn and Aquarius for the entire year. This extends backwards to late 2017 and forwards to 2023. Thus we're looking at about five years of Saturn domination. The only other major planetary body that has that kind of strength over this period is Neptune who has held that kind of sway going back to 2013 (interestingly Facebook's IPO happened within a few days of Neptune entering his home sign of Pisces and was symbolized by the botched IPO while also officially releasing the flood of images Facebook has brought through its platforms). Neptune in this powerful position will stay in Pisces through 2026. How did I arrive at this conclusion? Simple. The time that Saturn entered Aquarius, sign of social networks, was the moment of mandated social distancing that began almost exactly at that ingress. We'll have to see how the coming months of 2020 pan out, but it seems that Saturn going retrograde mid-May 2020 might provide some loosening of the restrictions. Saturn moves into Aquarius officially at the end of 2020. I've been saying in various videos that the period of three months from late March 2020 through the end of June 2020 is a window into the future, as Aquarius is the sign of the future. Saturn is the celestial taskmaster and disciplinarian, so Saturn being in his home sign of Aquarius means that we must get disciplined for the future. As I talked about in this video, this means a sacrifice of personality for greater mastery which yields more time and freedom. This includes the more judicious curation of everybody's time, and this period of a few months is demonstrating that in the absence of normative social networks, new digital and local ones will emerge that gives the individual and the collective more possibilities. This is very Aquarian energy: individualism combined with the group. This is amazingly celestial as we will go, like in Star Trek, where no man has gone before, but we will also be intimately connected with our local environments, as we accept the gift the stars having fallen to us in our homes and communities. The mind will travel far but from the comfort of our immediate surroundings, abating the need for physical travel. This is proving a challenging adjustment for some, but it is ultimately for the better. The symbol of Saturn in astrology is the cross over the crescent, thus the privileging of sacrifice over self. When you make this sacred, giving up your personality's desires, the world, and the future become yours. Each sun sign is addressed in this video.

P.S. Saturn is the 7th, most visible outer planet, although Uranus is just barely visible. 7 is a scared, powerful number. Saturn is the ancient "outer limit" of the heavens, so getting sacred to get disciplined is a very natural, powerful step. Ironically, this involves rest, as the Sabbath happened on the 7th day of the week, Saturn's Day. So again, mandated limitations actually give freedom, peace, and abundance. Last, 7 is a very royal number and is associated with purple. Don't you want to be regal in your own life??!!
