00:02:03 Merrily
Just have such an amazing story.
00:02:05 Merrily

00:02:06 Merrily
Talk mainly about astrology, cause your astrology channel is probably it is now my favorite.
00:02:12 Merrily
One to tune into. You're just you have such wonderful energy and you're so knowledgeable anyway. It's amazing. So.
00:02:14 Speaker 3
Thank you.
00:02:19 Speaker 3
I really appreciate that and one thing at one time I had someone I think was a fellow astrologer comment and he's and he had said, he said once I realized that you were a Virgo son and a cat.
00:02:32 Speaker 3
He was like, and I looked at your channel. He was like, that's a workhorse.
00:02:36 Speaker 3
Like your playlist? He's like, he's like you've been putting in work. And I said, yeah, man, I do. I put in work. I I am proud to say that, you know, if you are even neutral astrology and or you want to learn it. I always think that, you know, whether you wanted to become a professional or just learn it.
00:02:54 Speaker 3
And know your chart and family and friends.
00:02:56 Speaker 3
It is good to take, let's say like my level 1 astrology course. My basic foundations to learn, but I am proud that through my channel you can pretty much see your entire birth chart with all the placements and.
00:03:09 Speaker 3
Get a really.
00:03:10 Speaker 3
Cool. You know, soulful perspective of of each placement.
00:03:16 Speaker 3
You know from your mercury and Leo or Sage and then your, you know, your mercury in the 6th house or whatever.
00:03:24 Speaker 3
It is and I tried to, you know.
00:03:28 Eric
Do a deep.
00:03:28 Eric
Dive and I'm always going to be me. You.
00:03:31 Speaker 3
Know I was I.
00:03:32 Speaker 3
Was prepared for the age of Aquarius and pseudo Aquarius years ago, because I only know how to be my true authentic self. And that's like the highest frequency for this time. Love, you know so like the trying right love.
00:03:45 Speaker 3
Gratitude and being your true authentic self. And that's going to be the greatest currency in age of Aquarius and definitely for the next 20 years.
00:03:52 Merrily
Oh gosh, for real.
00:03:54 Eric
That's me, you.
00:03:55 Eric
Know I'm.
00:03:56 Eric
Proud and I'm a Scorpio. Rising. So proud to.
00:03:57
Right.
00:04:00
All earth.
00:04:01
And water.
00:04:02 Merrily
Right.
00:04:04 Merrily
Ohh a great combination for sure. So can we start by kind of what were some early either spiritual or or paranormal experiences that kind of led you maybe into astrology that you would like to share?
00:04:19 Speaker 3
Well, you know that that's really an interesting question because I don't really think there were any of those. I think for me, I grew up in New York.
00:04:30 Speaker 3
City. My father's from Tampa, FL and then a Harlem businessman. My mother was born and raised in Harlem and and a school teacher. I knew growing up I was a Virgo. My sister was a Libra. My dad was an Aries and my mother was a Taurus. And, you know, even though she was Catholic and he was Baptist, you know, we definitely.
00:04:50 Speaker 3
You know, I knew that little bit of astrology at a very young age. I I can remember, you know.
00:04:59 Speaker 3
I was so.
00:05:00 Speaker 3
Curious, and I remember I would always get the paper. I was an avid reader, but not necessarily books. You know, I, but I've read the books like, but it was like about Pete Rose and Muhammad Ali. Like I needed it to be about sports that I would read. But I read the newspaper every day, so I would start with the New York Post or Daily News.
00:05:20 Speaker 3
And start with the sports section and then I would go read the horoscope.
00:05:25 Speaker 3
And you know, I know now that that's just your sun sign and.
00:05:28 Speaker 3
You have this.
00:05:29 Speaker 3
Whole complex birth chart of sun and moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn. For the inner planets and then these generational outer planets. Uranus, Neptune and Pluto and then these important asteroids and other placements like True Black Moon.
00:05:45 Speaker 3
Lilith and Chiron and the North and South node. But why not my whole life? I only just knew. But then I really would say I'm mastered sun sign astrology.
00:05:55 Speaker 3
And had a great passion for it. And then even when I got into college, I was upstate New York for a few years at a small Community College. And then I went to and then graduated from the University of Maryland at College Park, and I found this beautiful big. It was like the, you know, big.
00:06:15 Speaker 3
Astrology book, I don't even remember the name of it, but it would break down the deacons.
00:06:20 Speaker 3
It would be.
00:06:20 Speaker 3
Like the week of the Enigma Virgo too.
00:06:24 Speaker 3
And it would let you know like ohh you are good with let's say a Capricorn one for work and a Pisces 3 for love. Or a, you know, Sagittarius this for friendship and it.
00:06:35 Speaker 3
Was so detailed.
00:06:36 Speaker 4
But when I.
00:06:37 Speaker 3
I remember clearly that I'm sitting down and I read, you know, the 2nd Deacon, right. And so I'm.
00:06:43 Speaker 3
On the Virgo.
00:06:45 Speaker 3
Capricorn, Deacon OK.
00:06:47 Speaker 3
And it was it's titled the week of the Enigma. And as soon as I read that, I was hooked. Because I, you know, was even in college, I was thinking of the future. I've kind of always been that innovative, futuristic, like Uranus type energy. I have 11th house stellium. So I really connects me to being that way.
00:07:07 Speaker 3
And Virgo and I.
00:07:10 Speaker 3
I was thinking of a A1 man show and I was going to title it E the energetic Enigma. So when I read that the week of the Enigma, I was just like, OK, you had me at hello. Like what's up? Like that's wild, right. So it's like weed. And I swear to you as as I'm maybe 60%.
00:07:30 Speaker 3
Through reading it, I'm like turning around to see if there's cameras anywhere to see, you know, like the Truman show, like, who's spying on me and watching my life.
00:07:40 Speaker 3
It was so detailed and it was scary, but it was so like I felt like someone had, you know, had an MRI. And so my kidneys and my liver, my.
00:07:49 Speaker 3
It was powerful and from that point on I was like, this is for.
00:07:54 Speaker 3
Me. You know what I mean?
00:07:57 Speaker 3
But I can say I went through.
00:08:01 Speaker 3
Really, that Yin Yang experience with it?
00:08:04 Speaker 3
Was in 1999, I.
00:08:08 Speaker 3
Previous years before, actually a decade before I met my half sister, who was a tourist like my mother.
00:08:16 Speaker 3
And she lived in California, and I was a professional actor in New York City. And I had gone out to try to shot my first screenplay that I wrote and auditioned for some.
00:08:24 Speaker 3
You know.
00:08:25 Speaker 3
Potential pilots or commercials and so spending time in California with my good acting buddy and then spend time with my half sister. Well, I didn't know my sister was a born again Christian and she was just like a Christian. Like she was like, I called her a Christian thug and she was the type of person that would come straight up.
00:08:45 Speaker 3
To you and like.
00:08:46 Speaker 3
Oh, so if you die tonight, do you know if your souls go in heaven or hell and?
00:08:50 Eric
I'm like what like?
00:08:53 Eric
She was just like, boom.
00:08:55 Speaker 4
And so I started to.
00:08:57 Speaker 4
Go to church with her and.
00:08:58 Speaker 3
I would go to Bible study and I loved it and Pastor was amazing. She had a female pass.
00:09:02 Speaker 3
There it was, a non denominational Christian Church right in, you know, not too far away from the Lakers, old Staples Center and you know. And so she.
00:09:14 Speaker 3
You know, I went to church one night in Bible study and and I wound up giving myself, you know, my self to Jesus Christ and my Lord and savior. And so then immediately I just was like, ohh no way.
00:09:24 Speaker 4
Astrology and blah blah blah and all this stuff.
00:09:26 Merrily
Right.
00:09:28 Speaker 3
You know, and I I don't regret getting rid of my big astrology book and all that. But you know, it was definitely an interesting time because things kept always bringing me and pulling me back. Even after 99 to astrology.
00:09:48 Speaker 3
You know, so.
00:09:49 Speaker 3
That's kind of, you know, how and you know, if you want, I well, I mean I'm I might as.
00:09:54 Speaker 3
Well, just say it now. Like it it.
00:09:57 Speaker 3
It really triggered when and recharged in my life after I moved to Arizona in 20 left New York City, I got married in 08 and had my first son in 09 when I married my wife, I had us immediately had a stepson, so he was my first son.
00:10:18 Eric
She's a Virgo like me.
00:10:20 Eric
So it's just great.
00:10:22 Speaker 3
And you know, and then soon after we had, you know, our first child together, my son.
00:10:27 Speaker 3
And son and you know, I was just like, I can't raise these kids in New York. It's not the place where I grew up. You know, everything was a fight to get to work. I'd leave in the dark, come home in the dark, get a fight to get a seat on the train. It was just too much stress. And then I'm like, oh, I got to worry about educating the boys. And for a private school.
00:10:47 Speaker 3
But then you know to get to a good public school. Even though I lived in a nice neighborhood, there was a lottery, so it wasn't guaranteed that.
00:10:53 Speaker 3
To get in, I mean it was just foolishness and it was just too much. We moved to Arizona and I really needed it because I had a few surgeries, so humidity was like the devil for me with my hands and and feet would swell up. So the weekends I would need to recover to get back to work on Monday. So my wife was like.
00:11:14 Speaker 3
That's not good. You're in too much pain, love. And so we found a place. Arizona. No humidity very.
00:11:19 Merrily
Right.
00:11:20 Speaker 3
Right. And and you know like probably 350 days of sunshine. So I always tell people, yeah, I guess so 100 and 15120 and it sucks. But those 3 1/2 months we earned the 9 1/2 of like or 8 1/2 of perfect weather like it is like even the winter like I feel embarrassed now when.
00:11:40 Speaker 3
I say that it's.
00:11:40 Speaker 3
Cold like, oh, my God, it's so cold and.
00:11:43 Speaker 3
They're like, what's the temperature? Oh.
00:11:44 Speaker 3
62.
00:11:46 Eric
Or 58 and people looking at me like they want to cut me like, and I know it was in New Yorker, like, dude, I I shouldn't even ever like other of those words hold with like 50 and 60. But you know, when you're coming from 1:15.
00:11:49
Right.
00:12:00 Speaker 3
62°.
00:12:01 Eric
It's freezing, you know? So it's.
00:12:03 Speaker 3
All relative and I have found with the drier climate, you don't feel the humidity, you really don't. So then the cold it's it's bone chilling when there's no humidity.
00:12:14 Speaker 3
But I say all that to say I before I left New York, I fractured my ankle really bad and crawled back to work the last two days of the school year to keep my I was a teacher in the Bronx to keep my health insurance for the family, and it was bad. I you.
00:12:29 Speaker 3
Know as they.
00:12:30 Speaker 3
Said it would have been better for a clean break and it was a block from my job.
00:12:33 Speaker 3
I went down on black ice, something that would never happen in Arizona and, you know, unless I was way up in the mountains near Flagstaff. But, you know, and when it came out here, I had to have a second surgery.
00:12:46 Speaker 3
Tibula fibula plate screws. Ohh just a mess, but I wound up getting valley fever and it's in a lot of the states. They have it in Washington, Fresno and Cali. It's like it's a it's like a fungus that really exists underground that usually gardeners or pets like dogs.
00:13:05 Speaker 3
Get it? But you can get it if.
00:13:07 Speaker 3
You're like, you know, around the soil or, like, in Arizona, a lot of times.
00:13:11 Speaker 3
Because that happens in Nevada, Utah as well. New Mexico, you can, you know.
00:13:16 Speaker 3
Like a little.
00:13:16 Speaker 3
Dust storm. It was so innocent, you know.
00:13:17 Merrily
Right.
00:13:20 Speaker 3
I'm looking for the cable guy.
00:13:22 Speaker 3
I go to my front door because I see a car coming in and I look and I walk outside, open the front door and it was one of those like weird, puffy, cloudy days.
00:13:32 Speaker 3
Like these yellow, puffy.
00:13:33 Speaker 3
Clouds and like the movie Ghostbusters, Augusta Wind came it was like.
00:13:39 Speaker 3
And I come and sign and tell my wife I was like, I think I'm gonna be sick. She's like what?
00:13:43 Speaker 3
Happened. I'm like, tell her she's like.
00:13:45 Speaker 3
Oh, OK, don't worry about it. Just sit down. Get some.
00:13:48 Speaker 3
I mean, the next day I wound.
00:13:50 Speaker 3
Up in the ER.
00:13:52 Speaker 3
I I was just.
00:13:53 Speaker 3
Like chest pains and nerve issues going down my left arm and then my wife was like and I had just come from a doctor appointment checking on my shoulder and she was like, well, are you OK? And like, I don't know. And she's like, what do you want to go to the hospital? And I was like.
00:14:09 Speaker 3
I don't know. I think maybe I should. I was like, I don't want to be some dumb, stubborn man. Who? All.
00:14:13 Speaker 3
Of a sudden just.
00:14:14 Speaker 3
Winds up dying at home because I don't want to go to hospital when I'm feeling.
00:14:18 Eric
Like I've never.
00:14:18 Eric
Felt like in my life, right?
00:14:20 Speaker 3
Having heart like my heart was tightening and and like numbness going down my left arm and you know.
00:14:26 Speaker 3
So Needless to say.
00:14:27 Speaker 3
It usually shows up in your lungs.
00:14:29 Speaker 3
Valley fever. It did not for me. It went to my head and neck and I was producing mucus every day, like as if I had the flu left. The medicine completely failed me. It took me 17 months to get to a naturopathic Dr.
00:14:41 Speaker 3
Who then diagnosed it through the microdermal screening, where they do in Great Britain and England. They're just starting to do it now in America. Maybe the last couple of years, but back in 2013 was not the.
00:14:52 Speaker 3
Case and I was getting sicker and sicker. Just had the newborn twins who are now 10, and I, you know, it was so much pain. I could hardly help to my wife.
00:15:02 Speaker 3
To feed them with bottles after a while. And when I finally got to this doctor and I got the medicine which is called antifungal diflucan azal, then I did Garlic IV's.
00:15:14 Speaker 3
And when I tell you I am like, I don't even want to get into.
00:15:18 Speaker 3
Like my weight.
00:15:18 Speaker 3
And stuff. But I got so.
00:15:20 Speaker 3
Big that my face was like four or five times the size and it was all fluid and mucus. The lymphatic system was overrun, led me to researching on YouTube about health.
00:15:34 Speaker 3
Stuff and then it got me into medical astrology and then back into astrology. And then I was like, well, I can't even really work a nine to five job. I'm still battling this health. I was doing sports radio.
00:15:47 Speaker 3
We had gotten my buddy and I were doing this great show. We were like, hitting triples and home runs in the minor leagues, but neither one of us was a former athlete, and so we weren't getting picked up by like Fox, CBS, or ESPN. Now CBS Sports offered us a show in the minor leagues in Arkansas for, like, no money.
00:16:07 Speaker 3
And I was like, he was in New York. I'm in Arizona. I was like, we could do New York, LA or Arizona for some money. But not like, you know, our wives wouldn't go for it, you know, like, little kids, like, just, like, get out here with that. And so I.
00:16:17 Merrily
Right.
00:16:23 Speaker 3
You know, so then we kind of, you know, wean down and we still like bring up, you know, fire up the show, you know, every once in a while we're gonna do like an NFL playoff preview next week, you know, because we love it, you know. And it's the tagline. It was Ray and Tate today and the tagline was talking sports with friends because we've been friends since like 11-12 years old, always talking sports, you know.
00:16:43 Speaker 3
So it was.
00:16:43 Speaker 3
Really cool when, but I the astrology was calling there was that knock again and it was like so.
00:16:53 Speaker 3
I decided to take a class and I studied with an amazing astrologer and it led me to becoming a professional astrologer myself. Her name is Heather Eland and just like me, she's a Scorpio rising at a Virgo son. So we had a lot in common and she was, you know.
00:17:08 Speaker 3
A lot younger than me.
00:17:10 Speaker 3
But just so kind and thoughtful. And she?
00:17:13 Speaker 3
You know the class was a bunch of students from all over the world. It was a smaller group, but it was nice. And she just like, you know, just the nuts and bolts, bolts. So for example, when I first started looking at astrology, I was learning how to read my chart on my own, but using Placidus.
00:17:30 Speaker 3
So she takes more of the Hellenistic approach, where they look at more, you know, when.
00:17:37 Speaker 4
A lot of.
00:17:38 Speaker 3
Project hindsight and different astrologers like Robert Hand. Were, you know, doing all this investigative research and they were getting these old, ancient books from the book of Allah, you know, from Alexandria and.
00:17:50 Speaker 3
Mentioned KEMET and Babylonian times, Greek Roman all the stuff and the.
00:17:55 Speaker 3
Books they were.
00:17:56 Speaker 3
Actually, the oldest challengers were not using classes. That's more modern western tropical. They were using the whole science system.
00:18:04 Speaker 3
Right. And so, you know, and that's where the ascendant starts in the 1st house, but whatever degree it is, that's it's just, you know, even 17°, it's just the ascendant is the point is in the middle right of your birth time, the eastern rising in the sky, the time you were born that's you determine the ascendant.
00:18:23 Speaker 3
Well, when you do placidus, you started the 1st house at that degree point. So then you can have Scorpio on your ascendant in the 1st house and then part of Scorpio in the 12th.
00:18:36 Speaker 3
And it just can throw off the charts. So even astrologers, western tropical astrologers who use placidus, they still have to use the whole science system when you're doing timing techniques.
00:18:48 Speaker 3
Right, like annual perfections and and then it helps when you're doing deeper interpretations with solar returns of secondary progression charts, right. So that's where you look at the 1st.
00:19:00 Speaker 3
And it's the I am energy. You're coming from mom. It's the only House of self. Every other house is then an offshoot of you in relation to others. Right. So.
00:19:11 Speaker 3
What's wild is that when you do that, the 1st house is 012243648, you know, so on. So on like cap it at like 120 because that's when most people feel that the aliens fused our telomeres and separate from the toxins and poisons of fluoride and the food and.
00:19:28 Speaker 3
All that other stuff.
00:19:29 Speaker 3
You know that that's sort of the the most that a human could live to, although I think now as we are you know ascending and in really the 5D and the age of Aquarius, we don't know humanity may be able to live longer. You know as we all just you know continue to do the good work, the light work and and spread the love and vibrate.
00:19:51 Speaker 3
Higher frequencies so.
00:19:53 Speaker 3
The whole science system is beautiful, so I could track in your chart, you know, let's say you got a huge event in your life.
00:19:58 Speaker 3
At 26, well.
00:20:00 Speaker 3
26 is the third house, so that's your local community, your siblings, your cousins, your neighbors, transportation, social media, your elementary school years, your reading, writing.
00:20:13 Speaker 3
Learning can use sales and marketing, right? It's your athletic ability, your skills, your self efforts.
00:20:20 Speaker 3
It's also becomes at that 26 or 38 years old, every 12 years that third house, it becomes the adult relationship with your mother, and it's where the moon has its planetary joy.
00:20:32 Speaker 3
So that's where annual perfections I could look and be like. Oh, well, merrily, you know, at this time, at 26, these are some of the themes and this, you know, based on the planets there and aspects, I'll look what's opposing it in the ninth. You know, I can.
00:20:49 Speaker 3
See or tell.
00:20:50 Speaker 3
You what was going on that year of life?
00:20:53 Speaker 3
And so that's the magic of annual perfections and.
00:20:56
So I just.
00:20:57 Eric
I could talk about technology all day. So you.
00:21:00 Speaker 3
Know, but that's how I kind.
00:21:01 Speaker 3
Of jumped into it from childhood.
00:21:03
OK.
00:21:04 Speaker 3
Went away from it.
00:21:06 Speaker 3
And came back and now I'm hooked for life.
00:21:10 Merrily
Yeah, seems like it for sure. Ohh, so I know you mentioned Heather Eland was your main teacher. Did you have any other guides or books or things along the way that?
00:21:23 Speaker 3
Oh yeah. I mean, I would say, yeah, I've read.
00:21:26 Speaker 3
A lot of the just the, you know, the basic books, like that big astrology book. I told you, you know, books by Robert Hand.
00:21:31 Merrily
Right.
00:21:35 Speaker 3
OK. What's your name? Linda Goodman. I remember reading a book breaking down the moon. But then I would just read articles and and.
00:21:44 Speaker 3
I would look.
00:21:45 Speaker 3
Through little pieces of Chris Brennan's book about Hellenistic astrology, but for me I just started diving in a.
00:21:55 Speaker 3
And watching the videos on YouTube.
00:21:57 Speaker 3
And to be honest with you.
00:22:02 Speaker 3
It was like I was remembering it.
00:22:07 Speaker 3
Like I had.
00:22:07 Speaker 3
Told you I'd mastered sun science astrology decades before, but when I started to bring up charts and look at it, and then when I finally, you know, decided to take a actual class with Heather.
00:22:23 Speaker 3
And you know, I would do those little like quick little webinars of seminars that, you know, other people, but that was the first class that I took.
00:22:31 Speaker 3
And it just was like it poured into me and out of me so quickly, I had to adjust cause visually for me I'm visually impaired and I have an eye disease so.
00:22:44 Speaker 3
I was having trouble at first understanding so and so this is what happens to me.
00:22:51 Speaker 3
My mind Virgo and Mercury is like a computer so.
00:22:59 Speaker 3
As a professional actor, I had to do it. I would just memorize things.
00:23:05 Speaker 3
And then when I visually see something, I can kind of picture it later on when I'm not.
00:23:09 Speaker 3
Looking at it.
00:23:11 Speaker 3
And I don't consider it like a photographic memory. I don't know. You know how people label those things or whatever, but I don't think that it's the case. But for me, I can just visually see something and just like how?
00:23:24 Speaker 3
Even in in the dream realm, when I'm sleeping at night now, as a professional intuitive astrologer.
00:23:31 Speaker 3
When I'm working on a clients chart, I will dream about their birth charts and.
00:23:36 Speaker 3
The placement and I'll get downloads and insights, but so it came back to me, I would say because after doing different readings and Akashic records reading with Debbie Solaris, who's now a friend and been on my podcast, you know, three times and just the real heavyweight and.
00:23:55 Speaker 3
In that field and you know, talking about aliens and UFOs and their.
00:24:00 Speaker 3
Music that I have been working on astrology for Millennium, you know, really working on the formation of the Zodiac Belt and the constellations and in the Galactic Center. And to be honest with you, lifetimes here on Earth and.
00:24:16 Speaker 3
I actually feel that I I I I received that like I'm very you know.
00:24:25 Speaker 3
I'm very analytical. Logical. I'm Virgo on steroids. When I tell you I have a stellium and Virgo, it's like sun, Mercury, Mars, Pluto. I mean it. It's 7-8 things. OK? And for me, it's not that I had an issue with religion or spirituality, but there was always a mental aspect.
00:24:46 Speaker 3
For me, I need evidence. I need proof.
00:24:50 Speaker 3
Right and.
00:24:52 Speaker 3
But at the same time, I've always had what I call deep water faith, and I would joke about it in terms of relating it to sports with my Yankees and Knicks and my Pittsburgh Steelers. My team, I was like, you got to just have deep.
00:25:08 Eric
Water. Faith. I got to go.
00:25:09 Eric
To faith and you know, and and and.
00:25:12 Speaker 4
A lot of times it it works in my favor.
00:25:14 Speaker 3
You know, and I'm, I pray.
00:25:15 Speaker 3
To God, I'm like God please.
00:25:16 Eric
Let my you know my team win and doesn't matter.
00:25:19 Eric
You know, of course I pray for serious.
00:25:21 Eric
Things too, but.
00:25:22 Eric
You know I.
00:25:23 Speaker 3
Love sports cause to be honest with you.
00:25:27 Speaker 3
It was a way my entire life to connect with my father. My father was murdered when I was six years old.
00:25:35 Speaker 3
And what's wildly when when we have that class?
00:25:39 Speaker 3
Heather used my chart as an example. You know, I volunteered her and she said, yeah, sure, but she broke down in my birth chart, and it wasn't in my sister's or anywhere else. And my mother's. But in my birth chart, you can literally by the planetary placements and alignments, describe in detail.
00:26:00 Speaker 3
The events that took place of my basically my father's murder. Well, she broke it down. We had people. And you know, I'm in Arizona. Someone in New Jersey, someone in Indonesia, someone in, you know, Canada, Australia.
00:26:14 Speaker 3
You know, maybe like.
00:26:14 Speaker 3
88 to 12 students but it.
00:26:16 Speaker 3
Was like all over the.
00:26:17 Speaker 3
World and you could everybody was like.
00:26:20 Speaker 3
And you could hear a pin drop. And I was like, hey, you guys, it's OK, you know, you know, Heather said she was going to show me some stuff.
00:26:27 Speaker 3
And I was OK with it. And, you know, and Heather was so sweet.
00:26:30 Speaker 3
And gracious. And she's just.
00:26:32 Speaker 3
An Angel and I really, you know. And she was even helpful because I was honest with her. I told her about my visual impairment. And so she was trying to even, you know, accommodate me with that and.
00:26:45 Speaker 3
But she was like, you know, it was like.
00:26:47 Speaker 3
Her go to Virgo talk and she's like, well, you know the best.
00:26:49 Speaker 3
Way for you to really do it.
00:26:51 Speaker 4
Eric is probably just to memo.
00:26:52 Speaker 3
Is it because it was just like seeing the different? You know, I see colors, but it was like really seeing.
00:26:57 Speaker 3
Them clearly to.
00:26:58 Speaker 3
Tell about the different aspects, so I had to memorize it. Well, a square is 90°, a trial is 120°. The conjunction could be, you know, zero to 10° right. The in conjunction you know is this and that and and the opposition is 180.
00:27:12 Speaker 3
And then you know, connecting it with the different modalities and the multiplicities and the triplicity, yes, and I mean it just and I loved it. And I think for me, God knew I needed a Virgo to.
00:27:24 Speaker 3
Picture because I'm gonna tell you, no one breaks it down like us virgos do cause and it could be sun, moon or rising because you know virgos we are. It's not just analytical and critical about it being we're humanitarians who are of service to others and.
00:27:44 Speaker 3
We analyze and assess without a without emotion.
00:27:48 Speaker 3
So if you ask a Sagittarius, Sun or mercury, do I look good on their shirt? They could be blunt, but like no, you ask a Gemini or a Leo, they'll be like Oh yeah, I like that. But they want to just dress you. The Leo wants to dress you and the Gemini wants to give you like 3000 shirts and.
00:28:04 Speaker 3
Not, and things with that.
00:28:05 Speaker 3
Perspective. And you're like, Oh my God. OK.
00:28:08 Speaker 3
The Leo's dress.
00:28:09 Speaker 3
At you. And you're like, oh, I don't know if.
00:28:11 Speaker 3
I want to wear this but.
00:28:11 Speaker 3
You know they're.
00:28:12 Speaker 3
Like, oh, we need more color, you know, all creative and very generous, right? All the stuff the Virgo is going to.
00:28:18 Speaker 3
Say yeah, I do like that shirt on. Numerically. That's a great.
00:28:23 Speaker 3
But have you ever thought of maybe an emerald green or this royal blue? Because because right, you know, they're giving you the example because it brings out your eyes and then it could play off of this. And you know what I mean? So they're what do they?
00:28:35 Speaker 3
Want to do Virgo wants?
00:28:36 Speaker 3
To fix, they analyze and assess to make something be in its most optimal point.
00:28:42 Speaker 3
And that's why I tell my clients and just in general, I want to talk about all my astrology videos and my on my work virgos are the best personal assistant because they will lift up and cheer someone up, and they're not going to be jealous. They want Virgo wants everyone to win.
00:29:00 Merrily
Well, making me feel.
00:29:01 Merrily
So much better, because I have my Virgo moon.
00:29:03 Merrily
So I love it.
00:29:05 Speaker 3
Yeah. But you know what? You have to remember. Virgo Moon son, or, you know, our biggest kryptonite is that we are too self critical. And so now I speak as a recovering Virgo.
00:29:20 Speaker 3
And I.
00:29:20 Speaker 3
Kindly to Eric about Eric and I advise that to all my clients.
00:29:25 Speaker 3
And I tell people like I would just say to you my biggest goal and dream for you tonight. And that I say this to my clients is to retire from negative self talk. That is no longer your job.
00:29:38 Merrily
I love it. Oh, yeah, it is 100% like number one thing that is my karmic lesson in this life. So that is amazing. And I did want to talk about because you mentioned and again it is it turned on my like my analytical Virgo anness about how astrology.
00:29:58 Merrily
Kind of.
00:30:00 Merrily
Structure is sort of the ineffable, the things that like the spiritual, the things that seem kind.
00:30:05 Merrily
Of like fuzzy, you know, like how do we really get your arms around it? And I personally I'm I study Hermetic Kabbalah and it's a similar type of structure, right for me to understand like.
00:30:20 Merrily
How how spirit functions and why it came down into the material world and well, you know. So the way you were describing astrology was really like, uh, it's kind of like the same thing.
00:30:33 Speaker 3
Yeah, well, think of it.
00:30:34 Speaker 3
Like this imagine.
00:30:37 Speaker 3
You're in heaven on the big sofa with God source energy, the creator, and whatever name anyone likes to use, you know.
00:30:45 Speaker 3
I tell people.
00:30:46 Speaker 3
Hey, when I was in a coma and.
00:30:47 Eric
I almost died and.
00:30:49 Speaker 3
I'm sure we'll probably talk about that. I almost died a few years ago in 20.
00:30:52 Speaker 3
21 and.
00:30:54 Speaker 3
I called on Jesus, you know, and I know that I got out of it, you know, having my faith. So when I say deep Word of Faith, I really.
00:31:04 Speaker 3
Mean it OK but.
00:31:06 Speaker 3
To me, I think they all come hand in hand. Metaphysics, astrology, spirituality, numerology, human design. Each thing you know, all these different things. And to me, what I've really come to understand and for you.
00:31:26 Speaker 3
To understand for the audience that the birth chart is the map of your life, so you're up in heaven and you're on the motherboard, or you're relaxing with God and God is, you know, saying to you, you know, where do you want to travel? What? Where do you want to go? Do you want to go to?
00:31:43 Speaker 3
And you select your parents, but you're sitting there and you're pushing button buttons. You know, I want a little bit more compassion and empathy.
00:31:53 Speaker 3
My soul needs to evolve and I need to learn some discipline and patience. I need to have a challenging mother so I can learn to appreciate and then nurture and love unconditionally. My children go through the hardships to struggle with some poverty. Oh, maybe I need a a little a limp foot or you know or or or like I chose. I chose.
00:32:13 Speaker 3
To have an eye disease and you make these selections and what you are actually pushing and selecting when you come in, that's the 360 degree, 12 house, Natal birth chart. That's what you've chosen and you can decipher through yourself, node and Saturn.
00:32:33 Speaker 3
Your karmic, karmic lessons, your Chiron and Pluto and Moon past life, energy that you know you need to heal and transmute and transform.
00:32:45 Speaker 3
Exploring through Uranus and Neptune the your evolution of your soul for freedom, liberation, spirituality, learning how to reprogram your subconscious mind. Learn how to surrender.
00:32:56 Speaker 3
And let go of.
00:32:57 Speaker 3
The ego and transform so you can become God consciousness inside yourself and empower yourself.
00:33:06 Speaker 3
I look at astrology as a whole, so I have many different services that ioffer and besides, like the regular needle, birth chart or sole return or secondary progression, or people come for career relationships. I have different services like astrological life coaching where I do.
00:33:26 Speaker 3
A5 week.
00:33:26 Speaker 3
Program where you'll come to me week one. We'll meet live over. Zoom for 60 minutes and do the birth.
00:33:32 Speaker 3
Reading and then we meet for the next 4 weeks, an hour at a time, and we do a deeper dive, looking at three houses at a time, and I'm teaching you how to live and exist in the flow and energy of your birth chart, so you are empowered by these planets. You know how to manifest. You know how to heal all the relationships in your life.
00:33:52 Speaker 3
And to forgive others, which is a true gift to yourself, to work with your Chiron, your healing, you know, healing your inner child, to work with the outer planets, for the evolution of your soul and past life. Calm.
00:34:03 Speaker 3
And I take you through such an experience and we do deeper, we look at the regular chart reading, you know aspects. But I go deeper and each time each week when we're looking at those three houses, we're going to look at it back in the background, the lunar mansions. So the degree points in your chart, you can look at it through the deacons, right? As I was talking earlier.
00:34:23 Speaker 3
As I'm a Virgo Capricorn.
00:34:26 Speaker 3
Thinking right, so you start off with those early virgos right starting in like the 22nd 23rd and it does depend on the year. So some people don't understand that as you know the planetary orbit and how the earth and the sun and all the movements some years the dates shift by a day. So that's why I think sometimes on the Internet.
00:34:47 Speaker 3
People will get overly confused with the cusp energy.
00:34:51 Speaker 3
Not you're not like the cusp of rebirth. You're not a Aries and a Pisces. You're one or the other. You're either 29° or 28°, Pisces starting the cusp, or 012 Aries. Now I'll tell you, I use a five day orb.
00:35:07 Speaker 3
But you should never go past that. Some astrologers just do 29 zero. Some will do a three day or one 1°. You know 2° whatever. And some don't even like to even consider the cusp. But I think the cusp was very important because as you get to the 28th degree, the energy is ingressing. It's leaving the one sign, the Pisces.
00:35:30 Speaker 3
Caressing into areas so it's already walking in those attributes OK and so.
00:35:36 Speaker 3
Well, but you'll see on Google and some astrologers.
00:35:39 Speaker 3
On YouTube, they.
00:35:40 Speaker 3
Have like 7-9 day orbs. No use numerology.
00:35:43 Speaker 3
As the hint.
00:35:44 Speaker 3
27° is 9/9 is the is the ending and the completion. That's the end of the road of that sign and that third Deacon. Now yes, the 20th and 29th degree.
00:35:56 Speaker 3
Is still part of that.
00:35:57 Speaker 3
Beacon, but in terms of like completing that energy that 27 is?
00:36:02 Speaker 3
The clue to.
00:36:03 Speaker 3
You, you know. And so I really love like programs like that. I do a moon tracking service where this is the best way. I think for people. So also to learn astrology, the quickest moving planet. Right. And and in astrology we know in astronomy the sun and Moon are luminaries. Right. But.
00:36:23 Speaker 3
In astrology, their planets and each planet and sign represents so many layers, and that's what I love about strategy. You're building like a spiritual cake. So you got the signs. You got the planets. Then you got to put them in the houses, and then each house is layered anywhere from like 25 to 45.
00:36:41 Speaker 3
So that's how you get this complex mosaic of one unique individual human that is just so rare to them in their chart. And I see it right. Not only am I my this astrologer, but I'm a father, so I get to see astrology.
00:37:02 Speaker 3
From my wife, my children, and even my mother in.
00:37:05 Speaker 3
Law, who lives with us?
00:37:06 Speaker 3
So I see it in multi dimensions and generations, so it's really, really cool and fascinating. But you know that's where when you really get into learning the moon.
00:37:19 Speaker 3
Which is your.
00:37:19 Speaker 3
What? Your emotions, your emotional mind, your roots, your ancestors, it's milk.
00:37:27 Speaker 3
It's your feelings, your sensitivities, your body, your intuition, your health, the family you create and your mother. We track the moon and each sign in each house for a full month.
00:37:39 Speaker 3
And I explained to you how the moon will play out in your chart for a month. It's great for women even tracking their menstrual cycles, but it's great for any human because you can understand in 2 1/2 days why and how your your mood switches, or all the sun. You feel a little bit more bloated. Sometimes. I notice when I track the moon.
00:37:59 Speaker 3
In a month in my chart, when it gets to certain placements, sometimes I'll have a stomach irritation, or maybe I'll bump out with like a little, you know, a couple little bumps or you know something on your face, you know. And so when you start to really connect it, you can see it with your health, your mood.
00:38:17 Speaker 3
Everything. So it's a really at.
00:38:19 Speaker 3
A dynamic service that I'm super proud of.
00:38:22 Merrily
Yeah. And you have such like, your training as a life coach and you also know numerology. Like, wow, you have such good foundations to even just the astrology, which is already amazing.
00:38:36 Speaker 3
Well, I try I mean but I.
00:38:38 Speaker 4
I tell people.
00:38:38 Speaker 3
Like look, I'm very honest, right? Like if I if if you ask me about a particular thing and and I don't know it.
00:38:46 Speaker 3
You know, I and I'm not a master of it. Then I won't offer it as a service. So, like, right now, I do so many services, but I don't do the Astro photography.
00:38:50 Merrily
Right.
00:38:55 Speaker 3
You know, it's something that I have to really focus on and learn, and then it's a little harder for me visually. But you know, I'll get it if I want to. And then and then. And when I do, I'll offer it as a, as a service, but I don't think it's good for me or any light work or spiritual person or even astrologer.
00:39:15 Speaker 3
To be inauthentic and provide a service for someone.
00:39:18 Speaker 3
That you're in, that you don't know it like.
00:39:20 Speaker 3
The back of.
00:39:20 Speaker 3
Your hand, because I I'm my I take it very serious astrology in a spiritual way. For example I do celebrity birth chart readings and I'll put them up. But I only do celebrities that have passed away.
00:39:34 Speaker 3
So I've done like Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Marvin Gaye.
00:39:40
OK.
00:39:41 Speaker 3
You know Marilyn Monroe, Sinead O'Connor and people love it and I and I love doing it, but I get requests for like people who are alive. And I said if I don't have their permission, I don't think it's spiritually right for me to read another person's chart in public. I don't care if they're famous or not without their permission.
00:40:00 Speaker 3
So if someone gave.
00:40:01 Speaker 3
Me. Their permission? Of course I would do it.
00:40:02 Speaker 3
I have no problem but.
00:40:03 Speaker 3
I I I have my own code of it.
00:40:06 Speaker 3
Fix that. I think you know you don't cross certain boundaries, spiritually. And so I'm, you know, I I'm definitely a high moral person. And I think there's a right way to do things even when I work with clients. And then I do their children's charts, talk to the mother or father and let them know.
00:40:23 Speaker 4
And I will.
00:40:27 Speaker 3
If I'm, you know, meeting with them live, you know, if the parent wants to be there, cause I've met with some, you know, people younger than 20.
00:40:33 Speaker 3
One and.
00:40:35 Speaker 3
You know, they were OK, like not being there or the one time the mom, she was there, but she was in the background. You.
00:40:39 Speaker 3
Know kind of listening kind.
00:40:41 Speaker 3
Of not. But I also will talk to the parent if I see anything.
00:40:44 Speaker 3
That's really heavy.
00:40:46 Speaker 3
Or an adult, mature sexual nature. I will, you know, either kind of just save it for the parent or ask the parent.
00:40:55 Speaker 3
You know, do you wanna share this? Do you wanna me to leave it out in?
00:40:59 Speaker 3
The reading or.
00:41:00 Merrily
Right.
00:41:00 Speaker 3
Do you want me to? You know, introduce it and explain it in a very, you know, professional but gentle way to them so they understand. And so you'll get different responses. But I think that that's my.
00:41:13 Speaker 3
Ethics and code like why wouldn't I? I mean I I I know as a father I wouldn't want some other adult telling my kid anything, you know, without asking me, you know, for their own lives and stuff like that. Because in the chart I see everything. And you know what I love? I help. I've helped plenty of parents with their kids in terms of the.
00:41:33 Speaker 3
Best way for them to learn in their education, their reading, writing had a father tell me that the school was trying to tell them that their.
00:41:40 Speaker 3
One was, you know, autistic and this and that I need to go to a special room. And I looked in the chart.
00:41:46 Speaker 3
And I.
00:41:46 Speaker 3
Was like. No, no, no, he we all learn differently. This is not one, you know, Crayon and one box, you know. And the school system, which I was a part of, needs to be revamped completely. And so, you know, they try to label.
00:42:02 Speaker 3
Children, and I think it's unfair because some people are more auditory learners.
00:42:08 Speaker 3
Right. If you have a pisces of mercury, you may need light music playing in the background. You may need to learn an isolation. You may learn more with pictures and concepts.
00:42:19 Speaker 3
Right. If you have Mercury and Aquarius, you may need more of the technology now. This time may be perfect for you with, you know, school from home or through iPads or every kid now in school. My son has them like laptops, you know? And but then there may be kids like they need the old school pencil and paper.
00:42:39 Speaker 3
You know what I mean? Like maybe some Mercury, Gemini or mercury cancer. They need it like and they may need to be, you know, more nurture.
00:42:40 Merrily
OK.
00:42:48 Speaker 3
You know they mean need. You know, some kids may need more direct strictness, toughness mercury. Capricorn. So it just varies. And you can see that in the chart through planetary placements.
00:42:59 Speaker 3
And and and I love helping because I think when you learn your child's birth chart.
00:43:05 Speaker 3
No exaggeration. You literally can become a way better parent. It's just knowing my boys, their moon placement.
00:43:15 Speaker 3
It it helps me to help guide them when they go through a stress or anxiety or emotions with friends or themselves with each other or whatever it is, you know. So I know like ohh your moons in this sign your moons in Virgo you moons in Gemini, Scorpio. Ohh then you gotta process the emotions like this and I can give them the space.
00:43:36 Speaker 3
And not dictate from my Capricorn Moon or as a father authority figure how things should be.
00:43:42 Speaker 3
But more meet them. You know, I'm not, like gonna be soft like a lot of these parents nowadays, I want to be your friend. No, that's what's.
00:43:48 Speaker 3
Killing our country with.
00:43:50 Speaker 3
Yeah, I am going to be fair and I'm going to understand well this is how they actually need to release or dispense their emotions, because we all do it differently, right? We're not the same people, and we have to respect human beings like that.
00:43:51 Eric
You're not getting started with that, but.
00:44:10 Speaker 3
Even though they're little human beings, 234 they have emo.
00:44:15 Speaker 3
You know, saw it.
00:44:18 Speaker 3
It's really fun though, because that's.
00:44:21 Speaker 3
That's where the magic is, you know, helping families, helping people with their businesses, whatever it is.
00:44:28 Merrily
Yeah, I can't imagine how wonderful it is to have that for your children and be being able to interact with them. And I know you mentioned and not that we want. I want to go like.
00:44:39 Merrily
Super deep, but I know that you mentioned that you have two twins and you know people always talk about that as sort of like a.
00:44:46 Merrily
A thing about astrology, right? Like, how does it work with twins? Like tell me that, Sir, you know.
00:44:52 Speaker 3
Oh yeah, well, this is deep because.
00:44:56 Speaker 3
They're only 7 minutes apart.
00:44:58 Merrily
Wow, yeah.
00:44:59 Speaker 3
Pretty much the exact same chart, but.
00:45:03 Speaker 3
That's where numerology comes in. Like different names. So it gives you a different vibration frequency, and their ascendant is 1° apart because the ascendance switches degrees every six minutes.
00:45:17 Speaker 3
Wow that wonder.
00:45:20 Speaker 3
And the numerology? Two different human beings.
00:45:25 Speaker 3
But there's such amazing kids. I I. I mean, I have four sons in total and they they rock my world, the Taylor twins, they bring it and.
00:45:36 Merrily
There. Oh, that's amazing.
00:45:36
I love it.
00:45:38 Speaker 3
I love.
00:45:41 Merrily
Well, thank you for sharing that. Yeah, because that was always something that, you know, maybe critics of astrology would throw there. But it's beautifully explained. So thank you.
00:45:50 Speaker 3
Yeah, no. And and that numerology, it makes a difference because because.
00:45:54 Speaker 3
Because separate from the date, the name is going to change their you know, they're so urge number you know it's gonna change different numbers. You know, the life path will be, you know what it is because of the date. But then what are so urge and then the destiny number.
00:46:14 Speaker 3
But you know the name will change and they'll have different numbers, so they'll have similarities in the numerology cause they're born on the same day.
00:46:24 Speaker 3
But the name totally, you know. So, but I it's it's it's really fascinating to see because for me astrology is every minute.
00:46:34 Speaker 3
Yeah, even with transits, one of my sons, when Mars was in Gemini for seven months this past year, it was like there forever or the I think.
00:46:44 Speaker 3
Maybe the end of last year going to this year.
00:46:45 Speaker 3
Whatever it was there forever, and I saw it play out and every family members part of my.
00:46:52 Speaker 3
Heart. And it was so like one of my kids was in their 6th house and he literally Mars can be burned Geminis the hands was doing something with the toaster, burnt his hand and like burnt it pretty good. I was like Oh my God.
00:47:06 Speaker 3
But I'm like, you know, and there's this thing is, you know, it's not so good, but it's good. There's on Twitter, it's like #astrology good, where it could be a terrible event in real life. But astrologers are like, oh.
00:47:19 Speaker 3
But that's.
00:47:20 Speaker 4
Literally what the astrology said. So it's astrology. Good. You're talking like a tsunami and a hurricane and like, Oh my gosh.
00:47:26 Speaker 4
That's terrible.
00:47:26 Eric
But it's astrology good.
00:47:28
Cause right?
00:47:29 Eric
With energy shows.
00:47:31 Eric
So those are like, you know how astrologers can geek out and stuff, but.
00:47:35 Speaker 3
His hand and then my other son to his Mars was in Gemini in the 10th house.
00:47:39 Speaker 3
At the time.
00:47:40 Speaker 4
And he was playing in the Basketball League and.
00:47:42 Speaker 4
Like he hurt his hand and elbow. Because you know the kid, like found them and dropped them. And that was Mars and Gemini. And then I was having things and then.
00:47:51 Speaker 4
I saw him my way. It was just I.
00:47:53 Speaker 3
Was like, wow, OK.
00:47:55 Speaker 3
I was like Mars. Can you please?
00:47:56 Merrily
Go to.
00:47:56 Eric
Cancer and it's not.
00:47:57 Merrily
Yeah. Get out of here like.
00:47:59 Eric
And that and Mars and cancer.
00:48:01 Speaker 3
Right, it's now so.
00:48:03 Speaker 4
January 4th.
00:48:05 Speaker 3
Mars, you know, just entered into Capricorn, and that's where it's exalted. So when Mars enters cancer, it's in its full. So, you know, not a death sentence when you have planets that are debilitated or in their fall. But it's just more challenging for that energy to to manifest.
00:48:25 Speaker 3
To how it wants to behave because Mars is at home in areas and Scorpio and exalted in.
00:48:29 Speaker 3
Capricorn Mars is what our willpower, our drive for man. Our sex drive. It's brothers. Boyfriends. It's energy. Fire. It cuts, separates, divides. It's blood, surgeries, procedures. It's also land or property. Real estate. Right. But it's like how we, like, assert ourselves.
00:48:50 Speaker 3
It's the soldier, the warrior, the general, the fight, the arguments.
00:48:55 Speaker 3
Mars is Tuesday, right? Mars martez Tuesday. Did you know Strauss is the 1st calendar?
00:49:03 Merrily
No, I did not know that.
00:49:05
Are you ready?
00:49:06 Speaker 3
OK. So we start off Sunday. The Mingo, the sun.
00:49:13 Speaker 3
Monday, lunas.
00:49:16 Speaker 3
Right, the moon.
00:49:19 Speaker 3
Tuesday, Martez, the planet Mars the best day to run your errands, lift weights, you honor Mars. When you lift the weights above your shoulder, right, Mars should be your busy day Wednesday.
00:49:33 Speaker 3
Miracles, mercury. Great day for breathwork the lungs, writing, communicating emails. Right hump day, journaling Thursday huevas Jupiter.
00:49:49 Speaker 3
OK. Abundance fortune, planning trips, taking a class. It's wisdom, beliefs, philosophies to teach your preacher energy. So Thursday is really this day of, you know, Jupiter the great benefic, you know. But it's also a good day to learn something. Expand your mind, zoom out. Look at the big picture.
00:50:10 Speaker 3
Our knowledge Friday.
00:50:12 Speaker 3
Viernes Venus. That's why it's date night. Romance. Love, language. Chocolate movies, arts, culture, entertainment. Venus's money. Payday material items. And then the day of the Sabbath. Karmic Saturn. Granite Saturnian bubble matrix.
00:50:32 Speaker 3
Saturn is the Sabbath Sabado Saturn, so that's the day of discipline. Taking care of your responsibilities.
00:50:42 Speaker 3
Structures the DNA, your lineage, the day of, you know, honoring right. Saturn is like the stern grandma and grandpa. Grandma, Capricorn, Grandpa and Aquarius. But it's our karmic lessons. So why we have this Saturn return? Show you how God works? There's no accident. The medulla.
00:50:51 Speaker 4
Pretty much.
00:51:02 Speaker 3
Anata is maturing when Saturn matures. You're functioning adult right? When?
00:51:11 Speaker 3
That is finished forming and for women, because you guys mature or faster than us, it's between ages 25 and 28 years old for men, right? And this is connecting the the cerebral cortex to the medulla. None. It's between, like, I think, 28. And, you know, as men, 31, maybe 32, it takes a while for men to mature.
00:51:31 Speaker 3
But what does that coincide with your Saturn returns, which is around 28 and a half 20.
00:51:36 Speaker 3
Nine years old.
00:51:38 Speaker 3
And so each planet has a maturity age. You know, they may vary like the moon is usually 21. Mars is 27.
00:51:44 Speaker 3
Have you heard of Club 27?
00:51:46 Merrily
Before. Oh yeah. Like where all the.
00:51:49 Merrily
People pass away.
00:51:49 Speaker 3
Get more of the Kirkel vein, Jimi Hendrix, Janis and there's so many and you're like, you know, so sad. But think about Mars. It's that warrior Fighter planet and it can get you in a bad place when it's mature.
00:52:04 Speaker 3
Or it could.
00:52:05 Speaker 3
Be smooth it.
00:52:07 Speaker 3
Could be reckless, it could be danger. You know what I mean? So it makes sense when you really think about it. And the deep the sun very will vary on the sign and the house can mature between like 26 and 30. It just depends, you know. So it's it's really fascinating but.
00:52:12 Merrily
Right.
00:52:24 Speaker 3
You know that's. Yeah, that's a really like.
00:52:28 Speaker 3
A a great way to like.
00:52:30 Speaker 3
You know, look at it all you know.
00:52:34 Merrily
Oh yeah, I love associating it with the days of the week, because then you kind of get that sort of flow of your life. And that was really cool.
00:52:42 Speaker 3
And it's, you know, and it's and it, it is really spiritual because to me, I'll be honest with you, there's so often probably once a week, every two weeks, a client.
00:52:53 Speaker 3
Because when you come to me, I have a questionnaire answer the questions and you give me your birth information. And when I bring up the chart, I still get excited every time and I hit enter.
00:53:03 Speaker 3
And I'm like.
00:53:05 Speaker 3
And then I'm like the mad scientist. Yeah.
00:53:07 Speaker 3
I've been with my cat moon and my Virgo, Mercury and sun and my Scorpio Rising, and I'm like, OK, let's get to the truth for this. This beautiful soul, right? And but I deal with, you know, first I will look at your Chiron wound.
00:53:24 Speaker 3
And Chiron, the wounded healer, is this, you know, energy point where Chiron was a Greek mythology of the Centaur, right? And it's rejection. But there's like 2 woundings one that's usually from in the womb to about 16 or 18 months old. And then the other one we look at that's more unconscious.
00:53:44 Speaker 3
But the more conscious wounding is at the degree point in your.
00:53:48 Speaker 3
Natal birth chart.
00:53:49 Speaker 3
So let's say if your Chiron moon is at 23° and let's say it's, you know, Pisces.
00:53:57 Speaker 3
5th House, 4th House, whatever it is.
00:53:59 Speaker 3
Right.
00:53:59 Speaker 3
So I will ask you or say well, well, merrily, what happened at 23 years old or five years old and the wounding is Chiron is an emotional, physical or spiritual wound that usually happened at that age of the degree.
00:54:15 Speaker 3
So it could either be the 23 or you add it or the five and sometimes I've had clients with both wounding both ages and then the sign in the house tells me the theme of the story, so I'll let you know. Well, it's pisces. It could do with deception, it could deal.
00:54:31 Speaker 3
Unfortunately, the bedroom, so sometimes sex abuse you could deal with a mental issue. It could deal with a parent or like someone who had alcohol or drug addiction. They could deal with, like fog, illusion, confusion. It can deal with depression, your feet, Pisces rules, the feet and your toenails. So if it's in a certain house, I'd be like, oh, did you injure your feet?
00:54:51 Speaker 3
You know, so all these different things. Spirituality, your imagination, creativity.
00:54:55 Speaker 3
And then the house layers the story, and then I'll write back. And then clients. I mean, I've had clients share stuff with me, and they're like, I've never told anybody this before.
00:55:05 Speaker 3
You know, and I take it, you know, I let my clients always know anything you share with me. It stops here with me. Never devote. I never use a clients chart as an example. Nothing like for me, it's very sacred. I always have to have permission. But what's really awesome.
00:55:26 Speaker 3
And I will be seeing you there.
00:55:28 Speaker 3
Soon have a monthly astrology meeting.
00:55:32 Speaker 3
Called astrological coffee talk, I have to do this the.
00:55:35 Speaker 3
New Yorker be coffee talk.
00:55:36 Speaker 3
Coffee talk with Eric and it's we meet usually the third Saturday of the month, you know, can vary sometimes, but once a month for two hours over zoom.
00:55:46 Speaker 3
For only $20 and I have a group of people that come all over the world. I call them my 11th house crew because the 11th house associated with the Internet and.
00:55:55 Speaker 3
Astrology. No, it's my 11th house.
00:55:58 Speaker 3
And people come and.
00:56:00 Speaker 4
So what I do is I I.
00:56:02 Speaker 3
Will teach an astrology lesson and you know a lot of the people that come, they come from all different modalities and different things that they love or into and different levels of spirituality or astrological knowledge. But it's a safe space.
00:56:17 Speaker 3
Because what happens is when people go through spiritual awakenings or when they get into astrology or these different, you know, occult knowledge or esoteric knowledge thing.
00:56:27 Speaker 3
A lot of times they're alone. They're their friends and family aren't into it, you know, maybe their spouses and, you know. And so sometimes you just need, like, a an astrology friend, an astrology buddy, someone that gets your lingo and your language. And like, the things you pay attention to. And so I feel like.
00:56:32 Merrily
Right.
00:56:47 Speaker 3
I love being able to provide that for you know, anyone and everyone to come learn astrology but have some fun. Learn some things exchange, you know, businesses ideas. You know I've had.
00:57:01 Speaker 3
Some people on coffee talk connect outside of it and support each other and like.
00:57:06 Speaker 3
Oh, well. Oh, you do this. I want to get a reading from you or. Oh, you do this or you make jewelry. You know what I mean? And so that's the environment that I create because I'm all about family. And I do the same thing on my podcast. I have a podcast that I do usually once a week.
00:57:20 Speaker 3
Times twice a week called Knowledge is love. Knowledge is love. Astrology podcast on you.
00:57:25 Speaker 3
And eventually I got to figure out how to get it on Spotify, and I know those other places, but I do on YouTube now and it's really fun and I love it and I get great guests. And my audience is so loyal and I just greatly love them and appreciate them. And we have fun. But.
00:57:42 Speaker 3
You know that that place of coffee talk is so sacred to me and I'm excited because in February I'll be starting my third year. I'll be coffee talk #25.
00:57:51 Speaker 3
So it's really exciting, but I say all that to.
00:57:53 Speaker 3
Like there is where we have a safe space and I will offer sometimes a coffee talk where my coffee talk members that come, they can volunteer their birth chart to be read and we do a blind reading. So let's say we were doing your chart. We wouldn't say it's your chart.
00:58:14 Speaker 3
Don't show the name or the OR even tell them the gender.
00:58:18 Speaker 3
Everyone in the room and you have to be quiet. You act like.
00:58:20 Speaker 3
You know you like you don't.
00:58:22 Speaker 3
Know who it is either.
00:58:23 Speaker 3
Yeah, but we all dive in and everybody chimes in. I lead it and start it.
00:58:28 Speaker 3
But I let people come in with their thoughts and interpretations of the chart. So it's like you're having like, 10 to 15. Whoever many people I have that month looking at your chart and then towards the end, then I reveal who it is. And then I let you come up and say, you know, I said, well.
00:58:45 Speaker 3
Merrily how do we do?
00:58:46 Speaker 3
How do we, you know, break down?
00:58:48 Speaker 3
Things with mom.
00:58:49 Speaker 3
How is that relationship tell us and you know, whatever you're comfortable with. You know, I've had people say, oh, you know, I'd rather not share that. And I'm like, oh, that's fine, you know, so.
00:58:57 Speaker 4
There's no pressure, but it's just.
00:58:59 Speaker 3
And and that is such a way to learn. It's great for you to have all these different eyes and brain your chart, right?
00:59:07 Speaker 3
You gained so much from it, but then it's great for everyone else to learn astrology because.
00:59:14 Speaker 3
The best way for you to learn it, you gotta do it. You gotta look at it. You gotta. But then you get the instant feed.
00:59:21 Speaker 3
Right. I may think that mercury and Virgo in the 7th house should play out like this, but then you're telling me, oh, this happened and that happened. I'm like, oh, wow, I never thought.
00:59:22 Speaker 4
Do you?
00:59:33 Speaker 3
About that. So you know we all learn and that's my student. You know, I don't say my students, but my coffee.
00:59:36
OK.
00:59:39 Speaker 3
Talk members love about it.
00:59:41 Speaker 3
That is so informative and fun, and astrological and spiritual.
00:59:47 Merrily
Yeah, I think such a great idea. So I'm very excited to go to the one on January 20th and I know you have every month, so yeah.
00:59:56 Speaker 3
No, and.
00:59:57 Speaker 3
I had and that's what I.
00:59:58 Speaker 3
Really love I have.
00:59:59 Speaker 3
So many loyal members. Some come like every month, and then you're some people like, well, they were coming every month and then they miss because, you know, life happens. You're busy on the weekends. Whatever I try to do it earlier in the morning, but I try to hit it where I'm getting each coast. You know what I mean? So I try to do like 11:00 AM Eastern or 12 noon. Latest one.
01:00:19 Speaker 3
And we're starting to kind of get everybody.
01:00:22 Speaker 3
And you know, but then I it's hard because I also have international people, I.
01:00:25 Speaker 3
Have people.
01:00:26 Speaker 3
Amsterdam and Poland. I've had people from Australia, New Zealand, you know Canada. So you know, I'm trying to.
01:00:33 Eric
Juggle everybody, that's what.
01:00:34
Right.
01:00:35 Speaker 3
I can and.
01:00:36 Speaker 3
And you know what? I let people know like, hey, apologies, because sometimes my schedule is not my own. You know, sometimes reschedule based on like, you know, sporting events for my kids, you know.
01:00:46 Speaker 3
And sometimes I have to miss it and I tell him. I said Listen, Daddy's got to work and my boys really understand. But when I can, I try to schedule around it because I think it's important for me to always be there for them. You know what I mean?
01:00:59 Merrily
Yeah, of course.
01:01:01 Merrily
It's so, so great. We, you know, so great that you're good dad and you want to be there for your kids. Of course everybody would understand that. Oh, yeah. You share so many great things so already. And and I've you know, I've, you know, you've graciously given us some of your time.
01:01:19 Merrily
I know you had like, a pretty spectacular and experience, so I'll kind.
01:01:24 Merrily
Of it's spectacular, it is well.
01:01:26
I don't know if that's the.
01:01:27
Word for it but.
01:01:29 Merrily
That was that was pretty strange choice of words.
01:01:33
No, no, it's OK. I'll just.
01:01:37 Merrily
Yeah, it was very involved and like, but you know.
01:01:41 Merrily
I'll leave it to.
01:01:42 Merrily
You like what you want to share, and that was kind you took away from that experience, I guess.
01:01:51 Speaker 3
You know, I I've gotten valley fever and weaken my immune system. Then I've gotten kind of, you know, better. It lays dormant, you know, but.
01:02:01 Speaker 3
I had gotten COVID when they said it wasn't quite here yet. Early in 2020 the 1st.
01:02:07 Speaker 3
And I was sick for a good 2223 days. I was like, this is my average flu. I've had pneumonia and bronchitis, and I've had the flu before, but this was a little bit I was like, oh, I remember when I go to bed, I was like, God, am I going to?
01:02:21 Speaker 3
Be OK, you.
01:02:21 Speaker 3
Know like it made me OK, you know? Yeah, you know. No hospital, no oxygen dropping. It was whatever.
01:02:28 Speaker 3
Life was going on, you know, we were taking care of my mother at the time. Who was a survivor, and I took care of my mother over 20 years and she was a survivor of breast and brain cancer and then had pretty severe dementia. And at this time, she was.
01:02:41 Speaker 3
In a wheelchair.
01:02:43 Speaker 3
So the.
01:02:43 Speaker 3
Pandemic, we were on lockdown.
01:02:46 Speaker 3
Like we, you know, hear no evil, see no evil. Talk to, you know, nobody.
01:02:51
You know.
01:02:51 Speaker 3
It was whatever.
01:02:53 Speaker 3
Yeah, it was kind of really innocent and things were seeming to be, you know, not so bad, you know, of what was going on. But my twins, you know, they had missed a couple of birthday parties, and we just wanted to have a birthday party for them.
01:03:11 Speaker 3
You know, and what I did was I made sure my mom was, like, out, totally away from everybody in another room. But unfortunately, COVID came to the house, and it was the delta that came through ******** and everyone in the house got sick. My mother had to go to the hospital August 27th. I went in August 29th.
01:03:32 Speaker 3
Got to see her. And she was looking at me like, what's going on? And I'm like, you're going to be OK because she was actually doing.
01:03:38 Speaker 3
Actually better than.
01:03:39 Speaker 3
Me. Oh, wow. She was 80 years old. And so I just knew she was going to be fine. And I was getting sicker and sicker today because of their protocols. They gave me steroids.
01:03:51 Speaker 3
Even though I told them I had valley fever and valley fever doesn't work well with steroids, you're not supposed to, dude. And so. But they went ahead and did it anyway. I wasn't really aware of that. I was. I was.
01:03:56
All right.
01:04:03 Speaker 3
Out of it.
01:04:04 Speaker 3
I mean, just think of your inside when your oxygen gets to 88, you.
01:04:06 Speaker 3
Should go to.
01:04:06 Speaker 3
The ER, right? Right. Do you know when I?
01:04:09 Eric
Called though with the 28.
01:04:11 Speaker 3
My oxygen is like a 58 or something.
01:04:14 Merrily
Oh no.
01:04:15 Speaker 3
And they were.
01:04:15 Speaker 3
Like Mr. Taylor, how are you standing, walking and talking? I was like, I don't know. And I.
01:04:21 Speaker 3
Was just like ohh. Strong like bull I.
01:04:23 Speaker 3
Don't know. Like I'm just.
01:04:24 Speaker 3
You know, and so you know. And I remember, oh, my wife was so upset and my boys.
01:04:31 Speaker 3
And they wouldn't come in the house. And I, you know, come out and I'm getting the.
01:04:36 Speaker 3
And I see my boys crying and I just. I was like, listen, it's like it's going to be OK daddy's going to be OK. Now, mind you, this is August 29th. I said, don't worry, Daddy's going to be OK and they're like closing.
01:04:47 Speaker 3
Up Emma's.
01:04:47 Speaker 3
Door and I said. I'll see you in October.
01:04:52 Eric
And I'm like my wife is like.
01:04:56 Speaker 4
It's August 29th and.
01:04:58 Speaker 4
I'm like.
01:05:00 Speaker 3
OK, I get there. I'm getting sicker and sicker. My wife, like, they wouldn't even let her in the hospital. She snuck in because they did invite her to come. Because my mom was nonverbal to go see and check on my mom. But I was just down the hall for my mom. So after she was with making sure she was OK, she snuck.
01:05:15 Speaker 3
Down to check on me.
01:05:16 Speaker 3
You know, because you know my wife, you.
01:05:18 Speaker 3
Know and they were crazy.
01:05:21 Speaker 3
And it wasn't even like the midst of, like the heat of the pandemic. So it wasn't like the hospital was overflowing. Nothing. It was like almost a.
01:05:27 Speaker 3
Ghost town? Really.
01:05:28 Speaker 3
Right. I mean that's how it seemed and they were like almost ready to arrest her. I mean, it was, it was, it was foolishness and it was just terrible. I mean, she's just gotta check on me, I think she.
01:05:39 Speaker 3
Brought over some.
01:05:40 Speaker 3
Food. You know what I mean? Like it was like.
01:05:42 Speaker 3
Please and.
01:05:44 Eric
I mean, what is she going to do?
01:05:45 Speaker 3
You know what I mean, except for.
01:05:45 Speaker 3
Just love on her husband.
01:05:47 Speaker 3
Yeah. And so I, you know, they had me wearing this, like, certain mask and they like you.
01:05:52 Speaker 3
Have to wear this big like.
01:05:53 Speaker 3
Guy, it was like a gas mask and this was like, they're like, oh, this will help your.
01:05:56 Speaker 3
Lungs and help you heal first.
01:05:58 Speaker 3
Time I did it, I I really didn't like it and I tried it again and.
01:06:01 Speaker 3
It was.
01:06:02 Speaker 3
OK. And they were like?
01:06:02 Speaker 3
Well, Mr. Taylor.
01:06:04 Speaker 3
You got to keep doing it because this is the.
01:06:07 Speaker 3
Only way you going to get out of here and I was like, OK.
01:06:09 Speaker 3
And I remember I had my fantasy football draft. My wife was like, I could carry you.
01:06:13 Speaker 3
For doing that.
01:06:14 Speaker 3
September 5th and September 6th. I did it with my good buddy that has a sports radio show over the phone and he was helping me. You know, I was just giving him the names, but he would pick for.
01:06:23 Speaker 3
And it was September 6th and I, you know, I told him goodnight. I called my wife. I was like, I'm real tired, babe. And they want me to wear the mask again tonight. Like I'm just gonna go to bed and I'm exhausted. She's like, you should be. You should have been doing that stupid drive. And I was like, I'm.
01:06:36 Speaker 3
OK, I'm just tired and.
01:06:41 Speaker 3
That was it.
01:06:43 Speaker 3
She got a call 11:00 at night.
01:06:49 Speaker 3
Mrs. Taylor, your husband's organs are failing.
01:06:52 Merrily
Oh God.
01:06:52 Speaker 4
Death is imminent. We'll call you back.
01:06:54 Speaker 3
In an hour click.
01:06:56 Speaker 3
I mean in a panic and.
01:07:01 Speaker 3
I guess they I don't know if I coded. I don't know what happened. I don't know any. They didn't tell me.
01:07:08 Speaker 3
They called her back an hour.
01:07:09 Speaker 3
Later, I'm on a ventilator.
01:07:12 Speaker 3
September 6th, couple of days for my birthday she couldn't get even to into the hospital to see me. And so September 21st.
01:07:21 Speaker 3
I guess I had to be COVID, not free. She had to be.
01:07:24 Speaker 3
COVID, wree. Whatever. Whatever.
01:07:26 Speaker 3
She was not allowed. She would FaceTime me every day, but she was not allowed to come physically visit me until. Or maybe it was September 20th, 20th or 21st.
01:07:35 Speaker 3
But you know, while I was in a coma, I mean, it was not a day of darkness. I went through dark night of the soul spiritual warfare. Unfortunately, my mother died and passed away while I was in a coma. September 21st.
01:07:54 Speaker 3
And as you can imagine, that was.
01:07:58 Speaker 3
It blind it, it totally floored me. My I was in the hospital and this is like a couple a few days after I I had awakened. I didn't wake up to October 16th, 40 days. I was in a coma.
01:08:11 Speaker 3
I did wake up, though late night on the 13th. Nobody my wife wasn't there. Nothing. It was real dark. And you know, I mean, this was like, what, 37 days of straight?
01:08:24 Eric
Sleep and I was.
01:08:25 Speaker 3
Like I didn't know what was, you know.
01:08:27 Speaker 3
And I.
01:08:27 Speaker 3
Was just with the ventilator in my mouth. I I just.
01:08:30 Speaker 3
Remembered I was sweating.
01:08:32 Speaker 3
And my hair was in my eyes and I.
01:08:34 Speaker 3
Wasn't strong enough to do anything, but I'm trying to reach my arm up to wipe.
01:08:38 Speaker 3
My yeah, these people.
01:08:40 Speaker 3
Thought merely that I was trying to pull out my.
01:08:42 Speaker 3
Ventilator. Oh gosh. Come.
01:08:44 Speaker 3
On I put restraints on me.
01:08:48 Speaker 3
I can't tell you how angry I was because in my head I'm like, can you turn on the ****** lights and?
01:08:53 Speaker 4
Look at me and.
01:08:54 Speaker 3
See that I'm switching and I'm trying like nothing. It was night care in the hospital. Well, at least this time in this situation, it was terrible in in Maine. And I just went, I dealt with, like, way too much.
01:09:08 Speaker 3
They did some things that were like inappropriate, like sneaking me medicine and denying me this. And they deny me the monster chronal antibodies.
01:09:17 Speaker 3
They were giving me terrible tube feed, didn't want my wife to give me because we had for my mother's organic tube feed. Kate farms. Anybody's ever in this situation take Kate Farms because the regular stuff it had me having, they were giving me starting to give me insulin shots. I was on the road to becoming.
01:09:35 Speaker 3
A diabetic I've never had.
01:09:37 Speaker 3
Blood pressure or blood sugar issues in my life, but they were giving me, I think it was a plus or jevity or some crap.
01:09:43 Speaker 3
And then my wife, you know, was asking them to switch. And they were saying no. And she's like, no, I'm.
01:09:49 Speaker 4
Going to provide.
01:09:50 Speaker 3
It this is what I want, you have to give.
01:09:52 Speaker 3
Them to him.
01:09:53 Speaker 3
Nurse did it, but she got in trouble and almost got fired for switching it for me. Can you imagine that?
01:09:59
Right.
01:10:00 Speaker 3
And then I finally got it. Do you know within no lie within 48 hours my numbers cleared and everything went good. And then she was like, stop pricking him. Stop taking his blood. Yeah.
01:10:12 Speaker 3
And it was.
01:10:12 Speaker 3
Yeah. So I mean, but anyway I I.
01:10:15 Speaker 3
Woke up, I made it and.
01:10:22 Speaker 3
I went through spiritual tests, spiritual warfare. I I know. For me, I called on as you know, I was, like, trapped in this, like, place and all this stuff. And all I could do was I I called. I was like I, you know, I called. I was like God Jesus I.
01:10:38 Speaker 3
Said my mom's name, my wife, my four boys.
01:10:40 Speaker 3
I kept saying and saying it and I got out of that situation and.
01:10:44 Speaker 3
But while I was in a coma, never had a moment of darkness. I went to different dimensions. I even Astro traveled to my home and saw one of my twin sons.
01:10:57 Speaker 3
Now, this is fascinating. He he's very spiritual and gifted. He he's one of those Neptune Pisces babies. They are no doubt.
01:11:05 Speaker 3
If you guys are parents and you got any of those kids 11 and younger, you know what I'm talking about. People are from another Galaxy, OK? So. But he saw me and I saw him, but first I OK. So I had died three times in a coma. And I think it was after my first or second time. And then I had an option to go.
01:11:24 Speaker 3
To my house and see my.
01:11:26 Speaker 3
Now 14 year old or 12 year old at the time, five years in.
01:11:28 Speaker 3
The future but.
01:11:30 Speaker 3
I didn't want to do that, so then I came and and just like was plopped on my sofa in my living room and I saw my wife talking to her like her friend and business associate who was helping her with some stuff.
01:11:42 Speaker 3
And then I saw this guy who was like a spirit, but at the same time he was, I guess, playing the role in my mind or some kind of mine as my wife's boyfriend. And she was cheating on me and having an affair and trying to kill me while I was in a coma and nothing of the sort. She was, like, the greatest wife ever saving my life. She was.
01:11:57
Right.
01:11:59 Speaker 3
There, all day, every day like I mean.
01:12:02 Speaker 3
It was. It was.
01:12:03 Speaker 3
Well, it went. It was.
01:12:04 Eric
Like torture it.
01:12:04 Speaker 3
Was terrible. OK and then?
01:12:09 Speaker 3
Her and her friend were like in 90. Remember the technology right? 90s VHS technology in color. My son 10, who was eight at the time, he.
01:12:19 Speaker 4
Was like in like 4K Super HD.
01:12:22 Speaker 4
And it was.
01:12:23 Speaker 3
So deep and he came over, hugged me and he said something to me. I don't, I don't. I think I heard him or remember.
01:12:29 Speaker 3
Him saying anything and then he kind of walked off.
01:12:31 Speaker 3
But as I was doing that in real life, he said he told my mother, my wife, that he saw me and he said daddy's gonna be OK.
01:12:42 Speaker 4
And so, you know like.
01:12:45 Speaker 3
And you know, the minute I got off the ventilator and I.
01:12:47 Speaker 3
Could like mumble.
01:12:48 Eric
And talk a little bit, that's like the.
01:12:49 Speaker 3
First thing I.
01:12:50 Speaker 3
Asked my wife. I was like, who was at?
01:12:52 Speaker 3
The house and she's like.
01:12:55 Speaker 4
What I was like, who did you have? Anyone.
01:12:57 Speaker 4
At the house, she's.
01:12:57 Speaker 3
Like what? You know, she's like.
01:12:58 Speaker 4
What is he asking? And then and then?
01:13:01 Speaker 3
So specifically, I was like it was your friend and I said her name. Yeah. Was she there? And she was like, yeah, she actually.
01:13:06 Speaker 3
Yeah, she was.
01:13:07 Speaker 3
At the House and I said, I know I said I saw you guys, I was there.
01:13:12 Speaker 3
And she's like what?
01:13:14 Speaker 3
I said I was at the House and I saw Jax. You know, I thought I saw my son. I saw Jack, and he came over and hugged me. And she goes.
01:13:21 Speaker 3
Wait a minute. He told me that he saw you.
01:13:25 Speaker 3
And I was like, whoa.
01:13:26 Speaker 4
Yeah, those type of spiritual.
01:13:28 Speaker 3
Things like you can't make that up. Yeah, you know what I mean? And so, like, that's like something where for him to see.
01:13:36 Speaker 3
Me, I saw.
01:13:36 Speaker 3
Him and I'm like at a hospital in a coma and he's at.
01:13:40 Speaker 3
Home. But I was at the house.
01:13:44 Speaker 3
And I saw my wife and I remember what her and her friend and business associate were talking about, and I was trying to get their attention. They couldn't hear or see me.
01:13:53 Speaker 3
So I had experiences like that I was going to Mars one time I got shot and I could feel the warmth of the bullets hit my body.
01:14:03 Speaker 3
You know, but.
01:14:04 Speaker 3
You know, I I've come to realize.
01:14:09 Speaker 3
That I must have agreed to all of this.
01:14:13 Speaker 3
Before I came here that I this was part of my story to upgrade me.
01:14:20 Merrily
Right.
01:14:21 Speaker 3
Since then, like I said, I've always been spiritual and deep Word of Faith. And you know, I would have dreams of the future. I dreamt about my wife before I met her, and when I was dating girls, when I was single, I would see them when they weren't.
01:14:34 Speaker 3
With me.
01:14:36 Speaker 3
I'm to find.
01:14:37 Speaker 3
Out after learning my birth chart that's I have Uranus in the 12th house in Libra.
01:14:41 Speaker 3
And that's that.
01:14:43 Speaker 3
And but I also dreamt about 911 two years before it happened.
01:14:49 Speaker 3
So like I would have these.
01:14:50 Speaker 3
Dreams and these visions. And I remember I suffered with nightmares after my father's murder. When I was a little. My dream world has always been like, you know, but.
01:14:58 Speaker 3
That's not yours.
01:14:58 Speaker 3
It's the spiritual awakener. It's like, you know, it's like sudden events and extreme weather. And, you know, just weird, bizarre energy and liberating and futuristic, innovative.
01:15:10 Speaker 3
And it. But it's also the central nervous system. Uranus is electricity. It's the.
01:15:13 Speaker 3
Hierarchy of mercury.
01:15:15 Speaker 3
And so when you're having a 12th house, it's like, oh, adios, meal is wild so.
01:15:22 Eric
But, but thankfully for me in.
01:15:24 Speaker 3
A good way, but it's so I really like.
01:15:30 Speaker 3
I went through the ringer. Yeah.
01:15:33 Speaker 3
And you know, I I went through these battles even with the doctors and nurses, I felt like they were trying.
01:15:41 Speaker 3
To kill.
01:15:41 Speaker 3
Me. Yeah, and.
01:15:42 Speaker 3
When I woke up, obviously I, you know, had some great ones, but it's it's like this weird feeling. Like it's like they did stuff that was like making me sicker and.
01:15:50 Speaker 3
Killing me, right?
01:15:51 Eric
And they.
01:15:52 Speaker 3
This stuff to bring me back to life.
01:15:53 Speaker 3
Say you know what? So it's like, you know, so I don't hold grudges or have any anger or spite or anything in my heart. When I first at the hospital, I was like, verbally assaulted in the emergency room by the doctor. It was, like, disgusting they were.
01:16:00 Eric
Got to.
01:16:05 Speaker 3
Very unprofessional, but.
01:16:07 Speaker 3
You know, I I just.
01:16:09 Speaker 3
I am someone who is about forgiveness and gratitude and has always been very humble and gracious and just my love for God and humanity. And I just know that all that mattered was that I made it and I was able to get back to my family. But my spiritual gifts have increase.
01:16:29 Speaker 3
Now when I work with you and I read your chart, I get these visions and downloads that are beyond my own astrological knowledge. I can visualize like you, with your moon and Virgo in this House and whatever. And then, like, get, like almost little flashes of you in action.
01:16:49 Speaker 3
Doing the description of the sign and plan it in the house. Why? Like it's so it's exciting and so.
01:16:57 Speaker 3
Ohh, I feel that it's made me even a better astrologer.
01:17:03 Speaker 3
I feel that it's brought me closer to God. It's leveled up my abilities and gifts and just.
01:17:11 Speaker 3
I I'm just, you know now.
01:17:17 Speaker 3
It took a lot to rebuild.
01:17:18 Speaker 3
I lost 36 lbs most high school. My shoulder was out of place. I didn't get home till November 20th and then my New Year's gift turning into 2020.
01:17:20 Merrily
Oh my gosh.
01:17:28 Speaker 3
Two, I got shingles.
01:17:30 Merrily
Ohh God oh man.
01:17:32 Eric
The chicken pox.
01:17:33 Speaker 4
Goes she didn't.
01:17:35 Speaker 3
Have it as a little girl and her mother couldn't remember if it was chickenpox, mumps.
01:17:38 Speaker 3
Measles. And so she had touched my back, not knowing what it was and got chicken pox. And you know, I don't know if you know.
01:17:44 Speaker 3
But as an adult, chicken pox is.
01:17:47 Merrily
Your poor wife, you poor you.
01:17:48 Eric
But we both we brought in the new.
01:17:50 Eric
Year's suffering. The kids are like.
01:17:53 Speaker 3
OK, mom and dad are checked out, you know?
01:17:56 Speaker 4
I mean, we had a great new Year.
01:17:57 Speaker 4
But it was.
01:17:57 Eric
Just like we were, like, done.
01:18:01 Merrily
Well, I am so happy you're here. And even through all of.
01:18:04
OK.
01:18:05 Merrily
That, you know, awfulness but.
01:18:09 Merrily
You know you have a really.
01:18:11 Merrily
You know, expansive perspective about it, but.
01:18:15 Speaker 3
Yeah, well, you know, it's so funny until you go through something like that.
01:18:20 Speaker 3
To be.
01:18:20 Speaker 3
Honest I've always been into like so many different things. Yeah, never knew about this whole NDE world. And listening to people store like I I've never watched anything. And now I've, you know, done, you know, a few podcasts and and. But it took me to my second year anniversary to get.
01:18:27 Merrily
All right.
01:18:40 Speaker 3
To a place where I was open and ready and willing to share my story because it was. It was very personal and it was very I mean.
01:18:50 Speaker 3
So let me just give you this last little insight and and glimpse to it. My wife, you know, it wanted me to get a little healthier, so maybe I just got my voice box and.
01:19:06 Speaker 3
This may have been October 20th, 21st, 22nd somewhere in there.
01:19:11 Speaker 3
She comes into my.
01:19:13 Eric
About to say hotel room, but my room.
01:19:15
Right.
01:19:16 Speaker 3
I was there so long.
01:19:18 Speaker 3
And she was like she came with the hospital chaplain and.
01:19:25 Speaker 3
After all that I went through, I'm thinking that she's gonna ask.
01:19:28
Me for.
01:19:29 Speaker 3
Divorce. Ohh no.
01:19:31 Speaker 3
That's how bad my. No, seriously, that's how bad. You know what I mean all that.
01:19:35 Speaker 3
I experience, yeah.
01:19:38 Speaker 3
It never dawned on me that my mother had passed away. I guess last I saw her, she was.
01:19:41
Ohh gosh yeah.
01:19:44 Speaker 3
Doing all right.
01:19:46 Speaker 3
You know, and she actually didn't officially. They put COVID on the death certificate, but it was really pneumonia.
01:19:53 Speaker 3
You know, I don't want to get into all that, but she wasn't properly taken care of and so.
01:19:59 Speaker 3
You and I.
01:20:00 Speaker 3
Could die of pneumonia if we're not properly taking.
01:20:02 Merrily
Right.
01:20:04 Speaker 3
So, but she comes in and tells me, and I was crushed and devastated.
01:20:10
OK.
01:20:12 Speaker 3
I was blown. I just it never dawned on me, Meryl. I just. I knew she was.
01:20:17
OK. Yeah.
01:20:20 Speaker 3
But I know now my heart. She was ready.
01:20:23 Speaker 3
Yeah. And I had told her years before. Ma, if you need to go, me and my, you know, my wife and the kids. We're good. I don't want you to stay around just for me. So much fun like that was my goal each day to.
01:20:38 Speaker 3
Make my mother laugh.
01:20:39 Speaker 3
And she loved my boys. She had relationships with all four of them, and sometimes it was so deep because even being a little nonverbal that dementia got worse. She still loved on them and taught them so many lessons. Compassion, empathy, strength, endurance, wisdom, patience, love, kindness.
01:21:00 Speaker 3
And we still, when we pray, you know, at night and we have memories of they named the elf on the shelf. Grandma, you know, Grandma Cheryl after my mother. So you know what I mean? Like it was a beautiful relationship and.
01:21:16 Speaker 3
She was a fifth grade teacher, and she taught them so many things from the Walker and then the wheelchair and just an amazing mother and grandmother. You know, she was a Pisces moon and a Pisces. Right? And a Taurus sun.
01:21:30 Merrily
Ohh really?
01:21:32 Speaker 3
Or she was tough, she.
01:21:33
Oh yeah.
01:21:34 Speaker 3
Loved to drive fast. Oh my God.
01:21:36 Speaker 3
Come on. That Taurus, you gotta watch tauruses they.

01:21:39 Speaker 3
Demons they.
01:21:43 Speaker 3
So I always get my clients if I see that you have Taurus in the 3rd, 5th, 6th, 10th House. Hmm, that's one of the first questions I ask them and everybody smiles, laughs and blushes. You know, cause those are the houses where you're transporting, you know, and they're like.

An amazing woman.
01:22:25
And what a.
01:22:25 Merrily
Gift she gave to your family. What a gift you gave to her. You know, knowing, you know, not really knowing when she would leave. So. But that's a beautiful thank you. Thank you.
01:22:39 Speaker 3
For allowing me to share, yeah.
01:22:42 Merrily
Oh, wow. Gosh, Eric, you have given us so much knowledge, so much wisdom. I of course will put up all your links and everything in the show notes to your.
01:22:52 Merrily
YouTube and all.
01:22:53 Merrily
Your websites and everything.
01:22:57 Eric
Is there one?
01:22:58 Merrily
Last piece of wisdom that you would like to leave words of wisdom that you'd like to leave with everyone.
01:23:04 Speaker 3
Yeah, definitely. I mean we're in 2024, so happy New Year to everyone. It's a universal 8.
01:23:10
Year, yeah.
01:23:12 Speaker 3
And that changes the vibration and frequency we were coming from A7, which is more about spirituality and isolation. It's got a Neptune and in Vedic astrology.
01:23:23 Speaker 3
K2, which is the South node.
01:23:25 Speaker 3
Energy and now, with the universal aid, everyone you hear everybody talking about it all over the world and you know this and that. And then the Chinese astrology is a dragon year. But, you know, we're also entering in Pluto and Aquarius. So it comes in on January, late night on the 20th.
01:23:46 Speaker 3
Early 21st.
01:23:47 Speaker 3
And then it will retrograde one last time from September 1st to November 19th. Again that the degree is that now that 29th degree, the anorexic degree and you're seeing all this stuff coming out, whether it's from Epstein's list to this controversy with that and that you know all the structures because that's what Pluto does, it digs up.
01:24:01
Oh boy.
01:24:07 Speaker 3
And so in 08 to 24, Pluto, Capricorn. But that showed us.
01:24:11 Speaker 4
All the.
01:24:12 Speaker 3
Deception and lies in the mortgage and the stock.
01:24:14 Merrily
MM.
01:24:15 Speaker 3
Market, government, politics and the me too movement. So that's.
01:24:19 Speaker 3
What's been happening?
01:24:20 Speaker 3
Right. So all the people who've been on the wrong side of spirituality and creating all the.
01:24:30 Speaker 3
The abuse, the manipulation of power control. Well, now they're debits and their their karma is coming coming back on.
01:24:37 Speaker 3
Them right.
01:24:38 Speaker 3
So the universal. Yeah, you have to watch out because yes, it is about manifesting money and power and CEO and building new things and structures in your life.
01:24:47 Speaker 3
But it's also as above, so down below and so within as without it's instant karma, the eight is like Infinity. It's, you know, back around back forth and around. So you also in this year need to be on your best spiritual behavior. I tell people this is not the year to to lie.
01:24:51
With that.
01:25:06 Speaker 3
She do anybody wrong? Umm. And don't get me wrong, you should never do that stuff. But for those who are on.
01:25:10
Right.
01:25:12 Eric
The edge right this weird.
01:25:15 Eric
Don't do it.
01:25:15 Speaker 3
Please because you're.
01:25:16 Speaker 3
Gonna pay.
01:25:17 Merrily
Right.
01:25:18 Speaker 3
OK so but I I love to leave.
01:25:21 Speaker 3
People with positivity and and and optimism.
01:25:24 Speaker 3
Like, look, we can't lie to each other. The world's crazy right now, from war to famine to abuse to this to that it there's too much.
01:25:34 Speaker 3
Money, gases. This everything's too high. It seems like someone could say the cosmos is kicking us in the ****. But what's happening is they were going through a huge shift. We're ending in age. Ages are a little bit over 2000 years. We're ending the Piscean age and then going into the age of Aquarius.
01:25:54 Speaker 3
This and that is taking away the veils of the deception and the illusion, and bringing in the age of awakening and liberation and freedom. And that same thing leaving the Pluto Capricorn. Since 08. Pluto, Aquarius, from 24 to 44, and the final, you know, ingressed into it will be on November 19th.
01:26:16 Speaker 3
And will be there for 20 years.
01:26:18 Speaker 3
And that is really bringing in more of a power to the people where Pluto was the power from the top down, Capricorn, Pluto and Aquarius is more from the bottom up than to the people, more equality more. You know, I used to say back in the days.
01:26:38 Speaker 3
Everybody gets a slice of pizza and a Snapple. So now I say everybody gets vegan pizza and some kombucha.
01:26:45 Speaker 3
Nice but but it's. But it's about equality.
01:26:49 Speaker 3
It's not about the haves and have nots, it's more about you know, and I don't even want to get into like socialism or con. You know, it's not.
01:26:56 Speaker 3
About any of.
01:26:57 Speaker 3
That it's just.
01:26:58 Speaker 3
About everybody getting more of a seat at the.
01:27:03 Speaker 3
You know, not having these, you know, situations of such neglect and such poverty and such lack of food. I mean our, our, our planet is plentiful. We have more than enough in every nation for every spirit and soul on this planet.
01:27:22 Speaker 3
But we have people in power who, quite frankly, don't want us to not only be alive, but don't want us to have a piece of the pie. They know their time is up. So that's why things have been so wild and crazy because they're misbehaving because there's, you know, it's like.
01:27:43 Speaker 3
Stubborn children who can't.
01:27:44 Merrily
Get their.
01:27:45 Speaker 3
And so, you know, and I think that energetically we're all kind of having an upgrade, even those who choose. And I never judge anyone. We're all like, think of Earth as Earth school. And so where you and I could be 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th grade. Well, we could have a friend or family member who's in.
01:28:04 Speaker 3
Three kindergarten, first second grade. They're no different from us. They're no less than us. They're just in a different vibration and frequency.
01:28:13 Speaker 3
And they are not awakened or not ready to ascend at this time. But it doesn't mean that they never will. And you know what I mean. And you don't put someone in a box.
01:28:22 Speaker 3
Or a container because I don't know your story. I don't know your chart. You know, you may have your awakening tomorrow, and then it like takes off. And then, like, you're this spiritual guru a year.
01:28:33 Speaker 3
From now, and you're way more advanced than anybody.
01:28:36 Speaker 3
And so it's not a competition, it's.
01:28:38 Speaker 3
Not a race, it's just we all have chosen to be here at this time, so there's no victimhood in astrology or.
01:28:46 Speaker 3
Churchly and we have chosen to be a part of this hashtag new Earth and ascending and really leaving the 3D and entering in the 5D where the frequencies of love, gratitude and being your authentic self.
01:29:05 Speaker 3
Will reign supreme.
01:29:08 Merrily
Wonderful. Oh, I love it. It's.
01:29:11 Merrily
Going to be, yeah, go get it.
01:29:11

01:29:43 Speaker 3
