Thank you. The timing is perfect and similar aspects are being experienced. The death of the ego, transformation of the nervous system and habits. All is in NEW.
What I found with explorations of AI. It is unable to pause, and will always have an answer, one way or the other. How to navigate this? Through aware choice, stop, pause, evaluate, and choose, take your time.
For me, this assistant, is suited for the universe of objects, rather than biological interactions.
'Artificial', this is glossed over by most or many humans, I would say.
Thank you for listening and commenting, stirling! I appreciate especially your comment about the "universe of objects." Yes, take our time...breathe... As with all things promoted and introduced!
Such a rich post full of wisdom, Erin. I was shifting in the mid-90s from a business consulting career, deep in depression, going through that and dropping all of it to become a mother (first daughter born in 1997). Now I’m facing another big shift as I move to a new community and create my role in life in a place in which it feels I will be fully supported, and it’s up to me to fully support myself and what wants to come through as my legacy, my gift to existence. The north node is approaching my natal Sun/Moon (and so many other planets have been playing there in late Pisces!), Pluto has been on my natal midheaven/Jupiter, and Uranus has been dancing at my ascendant. Whew! This full moon is trine my sun/moon and opposite my ascendant. Truly a moment for this enormous death/rebirth, and I’m staying in the not knowing as much as humanly possible. Open to grace. Humbly needing the support to love myself by loving what all higher wisdom is bringing (little fishy me wants to hide in addictions).
LeAnn, wow! That's a gorgeous musical creation. Thank you! I love your voice and the flute.
I see your star ✨ on the rise with this nodal transit and Pluto on your MC and Uranus on the AC...just...wow! Hang in there, beautiful Fish! You're in a flow!
Thank you as always for listening and commenting. Blessings on your new chapter!
Just so wonderful, thank you for taking us on the journey in this insightful listen! I just finished writing up my own big guide to the Scorpio Full Moon, which I posted just before midnight. It’s funny how after such a deep creative dive, I often feel like I need to step back and see the event through others’ eyes to truly land it for myself. Does that resonate with other astrologers? Listening to you was a perfect way to do that. Much appreciated!
Erin, this was so useful! As a gardener, I love the gardening image of cutting, pruning to let more air and light in and make a healthier plant. Also, I have had so many plants that I took down to the ground and they came back much fuller and prettier! Sobriety is a great mantra. Thanks for saying it doesn’t have to be forever. It does feel like the right time to take care though. I have thought about STOP everyday! I appreciate your lining this time out so thoroughly.🥰
And the identity shift- wow. Feels right on for me.🙏
Thank you, Heidi! I was laughing about it...S.T.O.P. Stop Think Observe Plan may not be so bad after all, especially if thinking is really engaging. But plans are jokes so who knows! I'm traveling right now so a plan does help at least in theory. We know, tho, the uselessness of it all.
Yep, chopping the plant down to the roots and then new growth thrives. A good reminder for those of us dropping identities like never before. Who are we without any identifier? What's that level of freedom like? Who cares? It's a trip to be a forest dweller long before one expects that stage of life. God has a sense of humor.
Yes, sobriety. Can even be moment to moment. What clarity is called for Now? How about absolute? (And no, I don't mean Absolut vodka. 🤣)
Thank you, Heidi, for listening and commenting! Wishing you a good full moon! ❤️
I finally found quality time to get to the end, and I can say- thank you for another brilliant podcast dense with wisdom!
Thank you also for mentioning the article I wrote about the seductive and manipulative power of AI. I value your perspective on AI and your intuitive take on it. I wish more people would do that- pause, feel into that and reevaluate their relationships.
I love also your insights on death and on discipline. On the latter, I've always had a bit of an issue with the word discipline because it provoked disciplinary meassures, the idea of something being forced. However, I never really knew the origins of the word and you brought a renewed relationship with it.
I could not agree more on the need to look into our addictions- that's the main thing that prevents us from being present, I agree. I have been working on that with some success - addictions tend to be very stubborn but they are not impossible to overcome. It just takes time and motivation - it's important how much we want what's on the other end waiting for us. And I think you've done a great job of bringing that perspective! Thank you!
Regarding A.I., it's pointing me at least to a greater split in terms of humanity and heart-soul-centered living. I am sure there will be a deeper demand as we go, to find individuals who are dropped-in and connected. It will be so interesting to see how this plays out over the next decades. Maybe there will be "zones" or "safe places" set up where we can be there for people to reconnect to their humanity and empathy. Now there's a vision.
Yes! And, I was thinking also about all that's going on with AI and I realized that one of the problems we as a society face (even before AI) is all the focus on (over)doing and (over)thinking. AI is like a drug for people who are in that paradigm and they would go for that big time. Some will get burned out because it will be too much and maybe they will start looking for alternatives. For the rest, if AI is doing all the doing and thinking, wouldn't some people find more time to feel? That's my dose of positivity for today.
I feel like that promise of having more time to feel and to enjoy is absolutely the promise that it is being put forth to encourage wellintentioned folks to embrace A.I. (like having robots that do all of the work so we have more time to enjoy... I have heard a few conscious people mention that. This also ignores the fact that work, real creative grounded work, is actually healing and meaningful.) It's a great idea! I just don't buy it at the moment. We see!
Regarding addictions... I like the idea of giving it time. And grounding in to the vision on the other side. I'm a big fan of "just for today." Just for today I will change my approach. And this decision I can only make in the Now. The day is a string of Nows!
Yes, it's all happening today and I can appreciate that. But I also need the idea of "tomorrow" -otherwise, I might stay in the instant gratification today of whatever the addiction is. For example, it is the idea of being healthier "tomorrow" and forward that makes me make healthier choices today.
I think the "disc" root in disciple and discipline has the Latin root meaning "to learn." I may be mixing apples and oranges as the discus like a disc is Greek for platter. But sometimes it's fun to see the overlap! We can accept our learning on a beautiful round dish!
What I notice- my system feels shocked by the world of AI- like a jolt to my system when I learn or hear of all the wild things underway. I have been watching my discernment on subtler and subtler levels as I engage, and have a feeling I will be learning to clear and clear and clear some more! (especially when I land back in the jungle, the plants will reveal more of the story). But to imagine the story that is unfolding in the larger world over the years- I just can’t!
Wow. Yes, I can imagine the plants giving you loads of insight and I look forward to hearing what you understand about this direction.
I also have the same physical response, Jaime. It's good to hear from you. Helps me feel less alone as I take it one step at a time. Right now, I'm in a major international city and need to move very slow, indeed. At least mentally. Breathing.
Discernment. We are well prepared for this attuning.

Never know…a song came through me many years ago about this ✨ https://wavegarden.bandcamp.com/track/never-know

Thank you for listening and commenting! Yes, I do the same on occasion. It's amazing how much it all lines up!
Curious how my forecast aligned with your own interpretation of the energies?
Another thing that's interesting is seeing how one's own forecast plays out! ☺️

That's a positive vision! Hmmm... I can't see that occurring as a result but one of my favorite mottos is, Keep An Open Mind!

I agree with that! And I relate!
