[00:00:00] Speaker A: All right, Star party people. We're back for the forever companion piece from our now full moon in Taurus edition. So this is something that you can listen to. I mean, you can listen to all of it whenever you want. It's all eternal. But this is like our real eternal kind of nugget that came out of our conversation. And Sandy and I were both vibrating into this idea of the Taurus Scorpio axis and also kind of connected to that. You know, I was saying I was feeling connected to the softer side of Scorpio or drawing out maybe that, like, death card energy, you know, that energy of Scorpio that some. Sometimes we not marginalized, but we don't always. We go in for. Like, the Scorpio is like the excavator, the celestial surgeon, like, getting in there and having it be, like, really gunky and gritty and all of that. And also there's a part of it that's just connected to this inevitability of transformation or inevitability of shedding and, you know, kind of feeling into that axis as a way to be seated. I don't know, is coming through for me. Like, we were talking a little bit about the idea of being seated or held in divinity, whatever word you want to use, you know, the invisible world, invisibly held, and how to kind of summon that feels through the Taurus Scorpio axis, kind of finding your seat or finding the place that you're coming from or coming up and out from. I don't know. Sandy, what have you been feeling? [00:01:29] Speaker B: It's just popping into my mind that I think every one of the signs has kind of their own pathway to God, you know, And I say God as a. You know, I don't consider myself a religious person, but in a way, I'm now very religious, but just it's my own religion or whatever, you know, so. So God, you know, this idea of everything else other than the Earth place. And I think each sign has its own. Its own message of that. And we were just talking about how in that. In our just full moon recording that we just recorded, Bess had this image about being just walking next to divinity. And we didn't really talk about it a lot in the recording, but we started talking about just after we pressed stop and how to me, in a way, it feels like being held, being supported, being, like, trusting and faithful in God. There really is kind of like a strong Taurus Scorpio energy to that. I think it could be all the signs, but in this sense, like Taurus is about. About being deeply, deeply rooted and safe. And of course we're never safe. Right. That's the thing about life. We're never safe. But Taurus just wants to be safe. And this can't be like a self exhausting, like action. Right. Taurus doesn't want to get exhausted. Taurus doesn't want to get exhausted by being like, am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe? Taurus wants to just feel effing safe. And like the way that Taurus can do that is by faith and trust and feeling into being held. And Scorpio as well is deeply questioning and deeply wants to connect in to what happens when we transform and let go of the ego. Like what happens when we just shed everything away and feel deeply connected to spirit. And, you know, how do you feel deeply safe and deeply connected. So this is kind of like one of the messages of the Taurus Scorpio axis is like, how do you get deeply safe and deeply connected? And it does come. The answer, of course, comes from this, like trusting in and whatever that may be, but being able to. Maybe it's trusting in yourself. Maybe that's how you get to it. Maybe it's trusting in your senses, Taurus. Maybe that's trusting in love. Scorpio. But whatever that is, to me it kind of feels like trusting in the ether. Yeah. [00:04:23] Speaker A: And something that doesn't move, it's like fixing your. Fixing your spirit on something that doesn't move. And inevitably everything moves. But the one thing that doesn't move is God. I mean, in the sense of like. And I'm using God too, in the, you know, sub, in whatever word you want. But that's the one I'm comfortable with in this moment, in the sense. Not that there isn't changing circumstances and response like faith, evolutions and all of that, but it's like this feeling again. I'm thinking of the Rosalia song, God is a stalker. And there's a lyric in that. I'm right behind you out of love. I'm right behind you. I'm always right behind you. And. And it's like that kind of just like lean back and into it and it feels connected to the Scorpio component of the transformative capability of Scorpio is inevitable because it's able to rest in the eternal. The thing that's never going to be stolen, never going to be taken is immutable on some level, whether that is a certain kind of tone of connection to self, but it's really stripped down that connects in with Taurus as well. This idea of. Of extreme simplicity, simplicity of support, you know, and whether that's one word, whether that's an immutable concept, one image, a part of yourself that has, like, weathered every single storm, whatever that nugget is, and then just, like, lean back and I love what you're saying, Sandy, about all of these pathways to God or pathways to divinity through each of the signs. It makes me think of, like, I don't know, a thought I had a while back was like, you know, every sign is inevitably leading to Pisces. Like, that's where every sign is going. And so how do they get there? You know? And so if we're, you know, not equating or making Pisces the sole sign, that's synonymous with God or divinity, but this feeling of whatever that is, the trust in the ethereal that. That we get when we get to the. The end of all of this archetypal journey, you know, at the Taurus Scorpio way station, what are we doing? Like, gesturally, we're leaning back, you know, we're rooting our little sits bones in to whatever's available, you know, and then even in the kind of collie, like, extreme, you know, kind of Phoenix, like, stuff in Scorpio, the deeper the kind of sits bones in, the more everything else can, like, let it rip, you know, around us. And then whatever that little root is or that little, like, butt imprint, basically, like, this is the butt imprint axis, you know. And like, wherever we are, no matter the circumstances, there's some kind of anchor. There's some. Even if it feels like every single thing that you've known in a situation, like. I don't know, I'm in a situation right now where I feel like I really, really been struggling for anchors. And it's like the only anchor I've been able to find is actually God. Like, the God anchor. And just to be like. And then the second that I lean back into that or call upon that, it's like, huh. Like, instead of just. And, you know, like, God is, like, laughing their ass off too, because they're like, oh, my God, These people are. We're right. But I'm right behind you always. And you're, like, out trying to. Oh, my God, what's the thing? I've gotta, like, grasp onto this for security or get this. And it's like some tornado, like Dorothy. Like, everything's being ripped out, you know, in a kind of Scorpio sense. And we're trying to, like, Pin this down or get our like stakes in the thing. And it's like, no, no, just like the ground is not, you know, is just to make your butt imprint, you know? [00:07:47] Speaker B: Yes. And I think like as you're talking and that was like one of the most beautiful ways to describe the Taurus Scorpio. Like this butt imprint, I can't get over it. It's so good. And as you're talking, I just keep hearing like the question that I feel like is coming from a listener. I don't know if it's you listener, but somebody listening, which is like, but what do I do? What do I do with this? Like, what am I supposed to do? And how do I understand this and what do I do to get into this Taurus scorpio thing? And the, the question, like, what do I do? These are the least likely signs to answer that. I feel like, [00:08:29] Speaker A: yeah, well, it's like choose where you're going to put your butt down. Yeah, basically. [00:08:32] Speaker B: Yeah, that's it. [00:08:34] Speaker A: You're kind of like you getting your mat or whatever. You're at the pic, you know, and it's like, where am I gonna sort of eke out my space on the ground and then nestle into that? If that's through an idea, if that's through a pet, you know, touching a pet, if that's through a kind of chair you're gonna sit in, whatever it is, it's like, choose where your butt's gonna go. [00:08:52] Speaker B: Yep. [00:08:52] Speaker A: Like that's what you do. [00:08:53] Speaker B: Exactly. And with Taurus, the answer to what, what are you gonna do? Is like root in and you know, just be in it. Feel. Feel like, like, oh, how's this sweater feel? How does it feel when I walk outside and I feel the temperature? Like, feel and then Scorpio. The answer is feel. But feel all those old feelings that all. There's some, you know, they're accessible and it might seem pointless to go back and feel them again, but if you do, you going to get something new that comes out of it. So go feel those old feelings. Go look for one. [00:09:33] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, it's not hard to, hard to find old feelings hanging around. [00:09:37] Speaker B: And sometimes it is. Like, sometimes it is. Sometimes you have to ask yourself, like, how did I feel when I was like 4 months old? Like, what was going on? You know, and you can try to feel it. You might be able to, and it might be really important that you do like that you connect to that four month old or something. So that's, you know, those are the things that you can do, and they're kind of like not doing anything in a way, but that's what you can do to understand this axis in your body. [00:10:09] Speaker A: I mean, it. It feels like it's connected to this question and whatever. This is a bit of a. A wide open question, but this idea of, like, where are you coming from? And this axis wants us to, like, place ourselves. You know, whether it's placing your physical body, whether it's placing yourself in time, like, where are you going to come from in this moment? And you can chew, like you're saying Sandy, like, maybe you want to investigate a former iteration of yourself and, like, come see what it feels like to come from that place. But, I mean, it's making me think. I don't want to take this, like, but butt in the seat metaphor too far, but this feeling of, like, I don't know, when you see, like, somebody who always has their favorite chair or whatever, and they've been sitting there so often that it's like the fabric is almost at, like, the ripping point too. And it's like, that's, you know, there's some inquiry in this axis too, of where have you been placing yourself over and over and over again. That is starting to be a bit threadbare. And, you know, there's options with that. You could, like, continue to place yourself in that group, but just get more interested in the Scorpio aspect of it, like, going deeper into the feelings beneath it and. And what that spot has buried kind of underneath it or what you're sort of guarding or sitting on almost like a little, you know, egg or, you know, poultry sitting on eggs. Or you can move your butt somewhere else and see what it. It's like to come from that place, you know, that. That kind of seat of security and choose, you know, an alternate sort of posture and. And play with it that way. [00:11:41] Speaker B: Another thing that's coming to mind with this Taurus energy is. And I just want to say it because it's of kind coming through. So I'm not sure how it connects, but acknowledging and admiring and being totally kind of like, bowled over by the incredible abundance and, like, garden of mystery and treasures and, like, growth and beauty and, like, incredibly transcendent, shockingly amazing sensory experience that is Taurus. And I think that it's easy to not notice it, you know, like, really easy. But it's around us all the time, like, we live on Earth. There's stuff happening here that is incredibly resonant and, you know, sensory sensorily delightful. And I think that, like, part of the Taurus message that wants to come through is, like, see it, notice it, be it, you know, feel it, hear it, breathe it. Yeah. [00:12:56] Speaker A: And there's something. I mean, without getting too deeply into this, there's something about the repetition of Taurus that begets some of that ability to, like, what can you see from where you sit? And I'm thinking, without getting too deeply into the story, but for the past two years, I've been my mom's sole caregiver. She has Alzheimer's and vascular dementia and related other things, but she's a Taurus son, and she's been sitting on the same couch, I mean, the entire time I've been here caring for her. But her sitting on that couch goes way, way back. I mean, it's like 15, 20 years of sitting in the same spot in the couch. And now that she's in a point with her brain disease where she. Or brain situation where she is only in the present moment, and it's like she narrates, like, the thing that she does. It's like if someone calls on the phone or I'm asking her a question, she just narrates what she can see out the window from where she's sitting. And it's like. It's like kaleidoscopic. It's like one fucking tree and the side of the neighbor's house and this woman. You would think it was like. Like Garden of. It's like the kind of ability to go in. And there's a lot more to say about that, but I feel like it's like. Yeah, sometimes that nestle into the threadbare spot on the couch. That presence of Taurus is like. Gives us this real kaleidoscopic experience of change and actual capacity to lean then into the Scorpio end of that axis. [00:14:30] Speaker B: Yeah. That was a very emotional download. I'm not even sure why, but I think it's for all of us. Thank you. [00:14:39] Speaker A: I hope so. [00:14:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:14:42] Speaker A: Huh? Taurus axis. Who knew? [00:14:45] Speaker B: Who knew? [00:14:47] Speaker A: All right, well, it's yours, listener. [00:14:50] Speaker B: Forever. [00:14:50] Speaker A: Forever. Wherever your butt. Wherever your butt may sit. [00:14:54] Speaker B: Thank you so much for listening and being here with us, because I can really feel you here. And these messages are for you and for you. Best. Thank you for partnering with me on this. It's so beautiful and fun. [00:15:07] Speaker A: Forever. I mean, forever. Thank you. [00:15:10] Speaker B: Oh, my God. [00:15:11] Speaker A: Thanks. [00:15:13] Speaker B: So we'll see you on the next one. Bye. Bye.
