The principal focus of this podcast episode revolves around the complexities and challenges associated with delivering difficult news, particularly in the context of astrology and personal insights. We explore the inherent difficulties that arise when one is tasked with addressing potentially distressing subjects, such as health issues or life-altering events. Our discussion emphasizes the emotional weight carried by practitioners as they navigate these sensitive conversations, often grappling with the fear of being perceived as the harbinger of ill fate. Through personal anecdotes, we elucidate the fine line between providing necessary foresight and the ethical considerations of such disclosures. Ultimately, this episode invites listeners to reflect on the responsibilities entwined with the practice of astrology and the profound impact of our words on others.

I think it's difficult for me to do that unless the individual kind of takes me to that place.
Speaker A:
They sort of give me a segue into that.
Speaker A:
And then I would say, well, this is also a possibility.
Speaker A:
But I know myself well enough to know that I would probably stutter and stammer about what it is that I'm really thinking.
Speaker B:
Because you don't want to be the.
Speaker B:
You don't want to be the bearer of bad news.
Speaker A:
Yes.
Speaker A:
And how.
Speaker A:
How dare I?
Speaker A:
Because I don't believe that it's right to speak life and death over someone.
Speaker A:
So, I mean, I may say, okay, just be aware of something that.
Speaker A:
Involving your children that could be.
Speaker A:
There could be some disillusionment, some.
Speaker A:
Something that is not clear.
Speaker A:
But I. I don't know that I would have said, your child might be in an accident.
Speaker B:
It's hard to say those things.
Speaker B:
I. I've had, like, clients that have been like, oh, like, just tell me it's okay.
Speaker B:
Like, even if it's bad, like, just tell me.
Speaker B:
But, like, even when it's like, it's like, okay, like, you.
Speaker B:
You know, like, maybe you have a.
Speaker B:
A person close to you that's, like, in really old age, and it looks like this might happen, like, it's hard to say, like, prepare for the worst, you know, like, that is so difficult to do.
Speaker B:
So I. I get you.
Speaker B:
I get you completely.
Speaker C:
And I have an example.
Speaker C:
Speaking of the house, we're about to speak about six.
Speaker C:
I had somebody with Mars traveling through the sixth house just going on and.
Speaker C:
And some.
Speaker C:
You know, I.
Speaker C:
Originally I was going with work and all of that stuff, but something just told me to say, ask about health with.
Speaker C:
With it being Scorpio rising.
Speaker C:
And I, you know, something just said.
Speaker C:
I wanted to hold back, but I just said, hey, is something going on?
Speaker C:
And it's like, nah.
Speaker C:
But then a couple of a week or two later, I get a text saying, hey, I went to the doctor and had some elevated levels or whatever.
Speaker C:
I actually felt bad.
Speaker B:
Yeah.
Speaker C:
You know, but then on the other hand, somebody was telling me I was telling that story, and it was like, hey, I don't know why you feel bad.
Speaker C:
You actually may have helped and maybe saved her.
Speaker B:
Yeah, that too.
Speaker C:
Without you saying something.
Speaker C:
They may not went to the doctor and got checked out, so.
Speaker C:
And I mentioned.
Speaker C:
I think it was on one of the podcasts.
Speaker C:
I mean, being an astrologer and a Virgo, I'm.
Speaker C:
I love to hear, hey, you.
Speaker C:
Right.
Speaker C:
But then.
Speaker B:
Now.
Speaker C:
But now the stuff I'm right about is it's it's like some messed up information after like, like, hey, you was right.
Speaker C:
I do.
Speaker C:
I am having a little.
Speaker C:
I mean, how do you feel good about that?
Speaker C:
You know what I'm saying?
Speaker A:
Yeah, but I get what you're saying too.
Speaker A:
It is, it does.
Speaker A:
It is such a satisfying feeling to know when you've got it spot on.
Speaker A:
For example, I had the opportunity to potentially and I'm become a part of someone's platform and had to take a test.
Speaker A:
And I took the test.
Speaker A:
appened to this individual in:
Speaker A:
And so I had to use the techniques that I learned in the class to make a prediction about what happened to that individual.
Speaker A:
And I.
Speaker A:
And the person actually happened to be Susan.
Speaker A:
What was her name?
Speaker A:
From Merrick's Got Talent.
Speaker C:
Oh, oh, Susan Boyle.
Speaker A:
Susan Boyle, yeah.
Speaker A:
So basically I had predicted that she would become famous that year and I didn't know it was her chart.
Speaker A:
So it was a very satisfying feeling.
Speaker B:
Nice.
Speaker C:
Right away.
Speaker C:
That's a Gemini rising thing.
Speaker C:
You see how I just pulled that name up out the information.
Speaker C:
What is Susan Boyle's name doing in my head?
Speaker C:
What do I know?
Speaker C:
Why should I know that?
Speaker C:
She won America's Got Talent.
Speaker A:
So it's very satisfying.
Speaker A:
But yeah, just like what you were saying about that person.
Speaker A:
So it definitely could cause.
Speaker A:
Because Uranus rules also the nerves.
Speaker A:
So it could be some sort of.
Speaker A:
If it's transiting the sixth house, some nerve issue and then Taurus is.
Speaker A:
Rules the voice and it's Venus rules.
Speaker A:
So something could be like something happening with your voice or, or even in the second house.
Speaker A:
It could happen.
Speaker C:
Have you.
Speaker C:
Do you dabble and have you dabbled in medical astrology at all?
Speaker A:
I have a medical astrology book that I have thumbed through from time to time, but I haven't done any predictions or anything but just to kind of get myself acclimated about things, just knowing what parts of the body the planets rule.
Speaker A:
And it's a really big, big book.
Speaker A:
Seeing the Medical Encyclopedia of Astrology, it's a pretty thick.
Speaker C:
I was gonna ask you.
Speaker C:
I forgot my thought.
Speaker C:
What?
Speaker B:
That never happens.
Speaker A:
But actually no, I haven't really.
Speaker A:
Other than just doing some dabbling to understand learning more.
Speaker B:
When, when the COVID When the COVID hit.
Speaker B:
I don't know who it was, but somebody, man, it was.
Speaker B:
It was an astrologer that predicted it.
Speaker B:
She even predicted like the treatment, like when the vaccine would come out.
Speaker B:
All these things.
Speaker B:
It was really imp.
Speaker C:
Oh, oh, I I was gonna say I re.
Speaker C:
When I really started getting into astrology, I really didn't want to have anything to do with prediction.
Speaker C:
I didn't really want.
Speaker B:
Really, Paul.
Speaker C:
No, I. I still don't really.
Speaker B:
But I thought.
Speaker B:
I thought that guy was that friend of yours.
Speaker B:
Oh, when I taught Ever.
Speaker B:
The one that taught.
Speaker B:
Ever.
Speaker B:
Reese.
Speaker B:
Yeah, you said that.
Speaker B:
That.
Speaker C:
That Cosmopolitan.
Speaker A:
Yeah.
Speaker B:
He's not.
Speaker A:
No.
Speaker B:
No one's an astrologer.
Speaker C:
Yeah, he says you're not an astrologer unless you do prediction.
Speaker A:
Interesting.
Speaker A:
I don't know.
Speaker B:
I think I. I think that has a.
Speaker B:
Has some weight to it.
Speaker A:
Yeah.
Speaker A:
It could also mean that maybe traveling unexpectedly for work, you know, some.
Speaker A:
Some shakeups with your colleagues in the school.
Speaker B:
Oh, you mean sixth house.
Speaker A:
Yep.
Speaker A:
Nice.
Speaker B:
Okay.
Speaker C:
All right.
Speaker C:
All right.
Speaker C:
Yeah.
Speaker A:
So.
Speaker A:
And sixth house also can be like, some legal battle or legal issue because the sixth house is the sign of enmity.
Speaker A:
And so maybe some unexpected reversal of like, a.
Speaker A:
A legal case maybe going.
Speaker A:
You have good aspects.
Speaker A:
It could go in your favor.
Speaker C:
Oh, by the way, sixth house, this is sad Rising.
Speaker C:
You have Uranus traveling through your six.
Speaker A:
Interesting.
Speaker A:
Yeah, so.
Speaker A:
Oh.
Speaker A:
In daily habits.
Speaker A:
So basically.
Speaker A:
Yeah.
Speaker A:
So work.
Speaker A:
The things you do for work can be strange, unusual.
Speaker A:
Interesting, because I'm trying to think now, personally, because my daughter's a satch rising and how this is impacting her.
Speaker A:
Yeah, but she did.
Speaker A:
But she did move across country.
Speaker A:
But after.
Speaker A:
Right after she finished college, though.
Speaker A:
Oh, wow.
Speaker B:
So that was an impact on her daily routine.
Speaker A:
It was.
Speaker A:
Definitely was.
Speaker A:
And so she was hoping to start her life.
Speaker A:
Her life's work, basically there.
Speaker A:
Because she's a performer.
Speaker A:
Nice.
Speaker A:
Of course.
Speaker A:
Yeah, of course.
Speaker A:
She's a.
Speaker A:
She's an artist.
Speaker A:
So this.
Speaker A:
The whole Covid thing really kind of just shook up everybody's world, but for sure, hers as well.
