Episode notes
Collective Crisis Requires Personal Responsibility
- We are living through collective, historically exceptional crises that amplify personal strain and require adaptation.
- Recognizing shared hardship helps, but you still must show up and take responsibility for relationships and self-care.
Pluto Activates Survival, Not Wise Impulses
- Pluto transits activate survival, trauma, and deep, often poisonous reactions that demand new coping skills.
- Strong impulses are not always wise; discern between survival reactions and considered responses.
Pause And Ground When Overwhelmed
- Pause the podcast, breathe, and practice grounding when you feel overwhelmed by astrological or worldly intensity.
- Choose small resourcing actions (hug yourself, feel the sun, or breathe) to regain capacity before acting.
