Nicole Laino: And I am here with one of my favorite people, Ms.
0:30
Nicole Laino: Christina Luna.
0:31
Nicole Laino: I've just come to love these episodes so much.
0:33
Nicole Laino: Our transit episode.
0:34
Nicole Laino: I look forward to recording them with you every month.
0:37
Nicole Laino: I love talking to you, but I feel like it's such a touch point for me.
0:41
Nicole Laino: And they've become some of our most popular episodes.
0:44
Nicole Laino: So welcome for the July one, Christina.
0:47
Christina Luna: Thank you.
0:48
Christina Luna: And I was just before you hit record, I was thinking, oh, my gosh, I wish were recording that entire conversation.
0:54
Christina Luna: It is such a personal and vulnerable time.
0:58
Christina Luna: This episode is happening.
1:01
Christina Luna: We're recording it in such a deeply emotional and vulnerable moment.
1:07
Christina Luna: We've got.
1:08
Christina Luna: We've got our feels right on our sleeves, and it's designed to be that way.
1:13
Christina Luna: If not now, then when?
1:14
Christina Luna: I mean, we have these windows of time when life is showing us the value of openness and vulnerability, the value of being a human who experiences emotions.
1:27
Christina Luna: I mean, I like to say that cancer season is what gives us our emotional wisdom.
1:33
Christina Luna: We go through things during cancer season that help to grow our emotional wisdom so that we can create more confidently and courageously in Leo season.
1:44
Nicole Laino: Yeah, I've absolutely been feeling that.
1:48
Nicole Laino: We were discussing it before we hit record.
1:50
Nicole Laino: Christine and I were just having a little chat, and I was sharing that, you know, June has been a really difficult month for me.
1:56
Nicole Laino: It has been challenging for me, and I'm trying to meet it with as much grace as possible.
2:03
Nicole Laino: But sometimes you just need to ugly cry alone in a room.
2:07
Nicole Laino: And there's.
2:08
Nicole Laino: Sometimes there's a reason, like, I've shared on the show that kind of everything that could go wrong in June, it feels like, did there have been some wonderful moments?
2:17
Nicole Laino: But every single wonderful moment was also met with like, oh, my God, how is this also happening right now?
2:24
Nicole Laino: And it's been a challenge.
2:26
Nicole Laino: You know, the evolved part of me is like, okay, we'll stick with, you know, like, do the work and everything.
2:32
Nicole Laino: And the human part of me is like, it's not fair.
2:35
Nicole Laino: And I think I've been being challenged to just to go inward and reflect and really take notice, to not get swept up in it all, which I Think is what.
2:47
Nicole Laino: You know, I went back and listened to our June episode of the Transits.
2:51
Nicole Laino: I wanted to hear what you had to say.
2:52
Nicole Laino: I went and listened to my.
2:54
Nicole Laino: You do those beautiful quarterly readings for us.
2:56
Nicole Laino: I went back and listened to that for me, because I wanted to understand what was happening.
3:01
Nicole Laino: That's part of the frequency, like, what's going on cosmically.
3:05
Nicole Laino: That is maybe what's being stirred up for me right now.
3:09
Nicole Laino: And, you know, I'm a Virgo sun, Scorpio rising, Scorpio moon.
3:16
Nicole Laino: I'm a feeler to begin with.
3:18
Nicole Laino: You know, I have these kind of two opposing things, two very strong archetypes.
3:23
Nicole Laino: But also, you know, one of them just wants everything to be orderly and perfect and do the right thing.
3:29
Nicole Laino: Step by step is followed, and the payoff comes.
3:31
Nicole Laino: And the Scorpio is like, oh, no, babe.
3:34
Nicole Laino: No, no, no.
3:36
Nicole Laino: And I was saying to you before we started that I know I'm in a growth phase, but it doesn't necessarily mean that's comfortable.
3:43
Nicole Laino: In fact, I have a note on my computer, literally, that says, remember, growth feels like shit.
3:48
Nicole Laino: Just to remind myself if I forget, because when we're being stretched, it's uncomfortable.
3:54
Nicole Laino: And to me, every single growth phase for me, every time I've really leveled up, I've been challenged to go really deep.
4:03
Nicole Laino: I've been challenged to go inside and feel and to really say, like, how much have you really let go of this?
4:12
Nicole Laino: How much do you really trust in this?
4:14
Nicole Laino: How much have you really allowed yourself to feel this?
4:18
Nicole Laino: And I think I'm just being called to that now.
4:20
Nicole Laino: And usually it has to do with, like, painful stuff.
4:23
Nicole Laino: Usually it has to do with, like, things, you know, letting go and dealing with how uncomfortable that can be.
4:30
Nicole Laino: And, yeah, it's been a ride.
4:32
Nicole Laino: I'm okay.
4:33
Nicole Laino: I know that.
4:34
Nicole Laino: I can handle it.
4:35
Nicole Laino: But it doesn't mean that I'm not human.
4:37
Nicole Laino: And I'm not having days where I'm like, this sucks, and I don't like it, and I don't want it to be like this.
4:44
Nicole Laino: And I did notice.
4:45
Nicole Laino: One thing I did notice was for human design.
4:49
Nicole Laino: We had it this morning, too, because the moon was in the 12th gate, but the south node is in gate 22.
4:55
Nicole Laino: And we had the sun transiting gate 12 in June and for, like, a week was super emotional, like, manic depressive kind of emotional.
5:05
Nicole Laino: And I thought about it, and I was like, wait, it's in the transits.
5:08
Nicole Laino: We all had a really emotional channel, which can get really dark.
5:13
Nicole Laino: And I thank God I Knew that because at least it gave me that feeling to know it's temporary.
5:21
Nicole Laino: At least some of this is not fully mine.
5:24
Nicole Laino: I'm being called to feel right now.
5:27
Nicole Laino: I feel this.
5:28
Nicole Laino: But there's something comforting to know.
5:32
Nicole Laino: Oh, the things that I am thinking this is about, it might not be about.
5:38
Nicole Laino: And everybody, whenever we have emotion, you know, if you're an emotional authority, which you and I both are, you, we have to wait.
5:46
Nicole Laino: And the reason we wait is because in those moments where it feels so bad and it feels so real, it's actually just our emotional wave sometimes making the darkening.
5:58
Nicole Laino: The glasses that we're wearing, that we're looking at the world through this, you know, grimy lens, and we're thinking it all needs to be changed.
6:05
Nicole Laino: But it's really something internally that we are experiencing that's chemical.
6:10
Nicole Laino: And if we just wait, we'll realize, oh, it actually isn't as dirty and disgusting out there as we thought.
6:17
Nicole Laino: It was just the emotional place were in that was making it look really bad.
6:21
Nicole Laino: So that was something I was grateful for knowing with these episodes and with what we do.
6:27
Nicole Laino: Just knowing that, like, oh, maybe this isn't me, or it's not all me, these things are still happening, but maybe it isn't as dire and awful as it feels.
6:37
Christina Luna: Currently, you are par for the course.
6:41
Nicole Laino: For the last few weeks.
6:42
Nicole Laino: Yeah, yeah.
6:43
Christina Luna: I want to share a little bit about the archetype of cancer from the perspective that I see it.
6:51
Christina Luna: And we're talking about water signs.
6:54
Christina Luna: There's water happening here.
6:55
Christina Luna: There's a lot going on right now in so many different arenas.
6:58
Christina Luna: But let me kind of put this into context because it's a very human time.
7:02
Christina Luna: So let's get, like, superhuman about this.
7:05
Christina Luna: If we think about Pisces is like the cosmic mother.
7:09
Christina Luna: And when we are souls and we're choosing a path, we're understanding that coming into a form, coming into a life, there's pure potential.
7:18
Christina Luna: All paths are valid.
7:20
Christina Luna: Every single experience is valid, no matter what.
7:23
Christina Luna: Time, space, incarnation, culture.
7:27
Christina Luna: Like, whatever we choose is part of the soul's evolution.
7:31
Christina Luna: And Pisces literally has no judgment as to how any of that potential plays out.
7:38
Christina Luna: And so it's considered the cosmic mother because it's the place where all potential can be birthed.
7:43
Christina Luna: But then we choose a body, we come into form, and it's all exciting.
7:48
Christina Luna: We're born through Aries.
7:50
Christina Luna: We get our roots and our needs and our physicality through Taurus.
7:54
Christina Luna: We start developing the mind and we think and we have concepts in Gemini.
8:00
Christina Luna: And then cancer is the first sign where we can actually hurt our own feelings with our thoughts, with our ideas, with our beliefs, we can begin hurting our own feelings.
8:11
Christina Luna: And it's where we know enough to know that we are mortal.
8:16
Christina Luna: That pain is going to happen.
8:18
Christina Luna: When I'm describing this in people's charts, I say this is the moment where the archetypal mother is holding you and you're a little baby and she says, oh, honey, life is going to be hard.
8:29
Christina Luna: You're going to get hurt, you're going to fall down, people will be mean, things won't go the way you hoped.
8:34
Christina Luna: All of this terrible stuff's going to happen to you.
8:36
Christina Luna: And no matter what, I'll love you the best I can.
8:39
Christina Luna: But I'm a human mother and I'm going to make mistakes too.
8:42
Christina Luna: And I won't be able to meet all your needs and I won't always be the never ending cosmic mother that you need.
8:48
Christina Luna: So you're going to have wounds and they're going to be embedded deep in your memory and we're going to create your origin story through all of this pain that is foreign to a soul but so native to the human experience.
9:02
Christina Luna: And you're going to incubate that and you're going to create a life that through Leo.
9:06
Christina Luna: And you're going to think that you're doing it right in Virgo.
9:09
Christina Luna: And then you're going to find someone to play out and unlock all your subconscious patterns in Libra, and then you're going to feel it all in Scorpio.
9:18
Christina Luna: Scorpio is going to open it all up.
9:20
Christina Luna: It's going to show you how you were never separate and alone to begin with.
9:24
Christina Luna: That every single person is a reflection of some unconscious pattern within you.
9:29
Christina Luna: Whether you love it or you hate it, you get to be with it.
9:32
Christina Luna: You're going to be bound to it.
9:34
Christina Luna: You will not have power against it's going to have power over you.
9:38
Christina Luna: You're going to be dependent on it.
9:39
Christina Luna: Whether you project that onto a lover, the society that you live in, your circumstances at home, whatever you project that power onto, you're going to be transformed through the water of Scorpio.
9:53
Christina Luna: And it's going to remind you of your origins and everything that you cultivate an emotional trigger around in cancer season.
10:00
Christina Luna: And then you'll take that wisdom out into the world and advocate for wholeness.
10:06
Christina Luna: You'll bring that home into Pisces eventually as you move through Sagittarius Aquarius or Capricorn Aquarius.
10:14
Christina Luna: I'm Skipping, missing one of those primary things.
10:17
Christina Luna: But the point is, we're in cancer season now, so our origin story is being triggered.
10:23
Christina Luna: It's a good time to get into the roots of what made us sad when were babies.
10:28
Christina Luna: How did our parents fail us?
10:30
Christina Luna: How can we forgive them for being human?
10:33
Christina Luna: So today, specifically as we're recording this, which is the 24th of June, Jupiter and the sun are together in this place of cancer.
10:41
Christina Luna: And Jupiter hasn't been here for 12 years.
10:44
Christina Luna: So once every 12 years, we get kind of ripped open to how vulnerable we actually are.
10:50
Christina Luna: And so you can look back in 12 year increments to see what was happening 12 years ago.
10:56
Christina Luna: What was a continuation of that story?
10:58
Christina Luna: What was the origin story that started 12 years ago that I am revisiting or closing down or healing from now?
11:07
Christina Luna: How is this different after 12 years of evolution?
11:10
Christina Luna: How am I navigating that differently?
11:12
Christina Luna: I think it was 2013.
11:15
Christina Luna: I'm pretty sure it was June to July, June of 2013 to July of 2014 that we had Jupiter in cancer.
11:22
Christina Luna: So that period of time set some kind of emotional foundation that we are revisiting now.
11:31
Christina Luna: And a lot has happened in the last 12 years.
11:34
Christina Luna: So much.
11:35
Nicole Laino: That was a very crazy time in my life.
11:38
Nicole Laino: I had just moved to Los Angeles, so it was like, it was a huge shift for me.
11:43
Nicole Laino: Left corporate, moved to Los Angeles, like just that whole upheaval.
11:47
Nicole Laino: And now that you mention it, that was when I started meditating because I felt so emotionally wrecked.
11:58
Nicole Laino: Like, I felt so disoriented and my thoughts were racing.
12:02
Nicole Laino: I knew I needed to quiet myself.
12:04
Nicole Laino: And I remember it was probably that summer that I went and learned transcendental meditation.
12:09
Nicole Laino: I've been doing it ever since.
12:11
Nicole Laino: But, like, it's so interesting to go back to these things.
12:15
Nicole Laino: I still do it today, but I did it this morning.
12:17
Nicole Laino: But it's so interesting to look at these timelines like that and say, like, oh, well, this is the last time this happened was in 2013 or 2014.
12:28
Nicole Laino: What was happening in your life back then?
12:30
Nicole Laino: Like, you listening to this show right now, what were you doing in 2013?
12:35
Nicole Laino: What was different in your life?
12:37
Nicole Laino: What did you feel like you were being called to?
12:39
Nicole Laino: For me, I felt like that was the first call to this evolution that I'm now in.
12:45
Nicole Laino: And now I feel like I was saying to you earlier that I feel like I'm being called to the next.
12:50
Nicole Laino: And I just did an episode on this too, where it's like being in the middle, where you're in between who you've always been, but you're not quite who you're becoming yet.
12:58
Nicole Laino: And you're in this middle period of the vision hasn't totally taken shape yet.
13:04
Nicole Laino: I don't know exactly where it's all heading or what it's all going to look like.
13:10
Nicole Laino: Is it going to look radically different?
13:11
Nicole Laino: I don't know.
13:12
Nicole Laino: But I just know that there's change that's coming, and we want it to come fast and be like, you know, I want to know what the end of the movie is.
13:20
Nicole Laino: But then again, we don't, because then it ruins the story.
13:26
Christina Luna: I've been having that experience a lot lately, in fact, like.
13:29
Christina Luna: Well, I have two things to say quickly.
13:31
Christina Luna: In 2013, I was also in a new home in a new environment.
13:34
Christina Luna: And that was also when I began my path with the South American medicine wheel.
13:40
Christina Luna: And I was taken under the wing of my teacher, and we started going into really deep emotional, spiritual, multidimensional teachings.
13:48
Christina Luna: It was so vulnerable.
13:50
Christina Luna: But it was the first time I actually was starting to feel like I could come into my humanity because I feel like I'm lived, existed in a bubble above my life up until that point.
14:00
Christina Luna: And so now we've got these 12 years where both of us have really used those tools and landed, and we're in a space of service in the way that we are.
14:11
Christina Luna: And so I also feel that there's this next level that's evolving from here.
14:16
Christina Luna: We're at the beginning, fertile stages.
14:19
Christina Luna: We're looking to the sky and we're saying, okay, if I'm going to be here, if I'm going to truly be in this human experience, I'm on my knees, I'm surrendering.
14:29
Christina Luna: I'm saying, yes, and let's make the best of it.
14:32
Christina Luna: And that's ultimately the greatest growth that we can come to in Cancer season.
14:37
Christina Luna: To be humble enough to understand that as humans, we are mortal, we are subject to things beyond our control.
14:46
Christina Luna: How do we just say yes and decide to be here anyway?
14:50
Nicole Laino: Yeah.
14:50
Christina Luna: And then there was another thing.
14:52
Christina Luna: Oh, this is a tiny detail that I think everyone can find really valuable.
14:58
Christina Luna: Something that I learned during that time was to create an altar in our space for all the experiences to exist and be acceptable.
15:10
Christina Luna: And I was thinking about, like, partially, why do I feel like I'm in a high level of harmony with my emotions this season rather than feeling dysregulated like I usually do?
15:21
Christina Luna: Because usually this is a very difficult time for me.
15:24
Christina Luna: And I very actively created an altar.
15:28
Christina Luna: And when I'm saying created an altar, I've actively chosen to watch Game of Thrones, chosen to rewatch that because there's so much war and death and murder and betrayal and turmoil that happens.
15:45
Christina Luna: There's so much drama that happens in that show.
15:48
Christina Luna: In some ways, by honoring that's a craving I have in my soul.
15:53
Christina Luna: It's a craving of fear.
15:55
Christina Luna: I have a fearful craving inside of me for destruction and chaos.
16:00
Christina Luna: And I acknowledge that I have that.
16:03
Christina Luna: And by actively choosing to watch that and put it on altar of my television, not to worship it, but to give it a safe space to play out, I believe that I'm freeing my psyche from having to work that out on the inside.
16:18
Christina Luna: And so this is a permission slip if there's any kind of craving, fearful craving.
16:24
Christina Luna: We're so afraid these days to indulge our fearful cravings because we're so afraid.
16:29
Christina Luna: We're afraid that if we indulge it'll attract it.
16:32
Christina Luna: But understanding that we can't resist, what we resist actually is what we experience more, what we judge is what we experience more.
16:41
Christina Luna: So often the sensation of pushing something away is what attracts it to us stronger because we're ultimately made up of all things.
16:51
Christina Luna: And so if we try to push any one thing away, it creates a magnetic pull for it.
16:55
Christina Luna: So we create these altars so that they no longer have power over us as we resist them on the inside.
17:02
Nicole Laino: It's funny.
17:02
Nicole Laino: I didn't intentionally do this.
17:04
Nicole Laino: What I did intentionally do, I am a science fiction nerd, which people don't really know about me.
17:10
Nicole Laino: I love, like, epic kind of Dune and Star wars and all of these kind of movies and trilogies.
17:19
Nicole Laino: And I love Lord of the Rings, so, like, fantasy kind of stuff.
17:23
Nicole Laino: I was obsessed with Game of Thrones, read all the books, so I chose to go back and read.
17:27
Nicole Laino: I'm reading Dune Messiah right now.
17:30
Nicole Laino: So I didn't consciously choose it.
17:32
Nicole Laino: Like, I want to create an altar for these feelings, but that's basically.
17:35
Nicole Laino: It's a Game of Thrones thing.
17:37
Nicole Laino: I think it's interesting.
17:38
Nicole Laino: What I intuitively chose was a book about what it really means for us to idolize people and to blindly follow and to not pay attention to what they are really doing.
17:51
Nicole Laino: And even the people we turn into gods fall.
17:58
Nicole Laino: And that's all the things I've been feeling right now.
18:00
Nicole Laino: I've been very disturbed by the things happening in the world right now.
18:05
Nicole Laino: My heart hurts.
18:07
Nicole Laino: And I am both hopeful and fearful at the same time.
18:10
Nicole Laino: You know, I have to hold that something.
18:13
Nicole Laino: Something good will come, but also at the same time being very concerned about the things that are happening and feeling a bit helpless at times when you feel like you're very small.
18:24
Nicole Laino: So what I told myself was, I'm not gonna read, like, a business book.
18:28
Nicole Laino: I'm gonna enjoy.
18:30
Nicole Laino: But what I chose was something like, as I started reading it, I'm like, it's so interesting how I chose a book that is about even you talking about the water signs.
18:40
Nicole Laino: There's something in Dune, the Water of Life, which, when you drink or ingest the water of Life, one, you might die, but two, it takes you back to all the pain through all of your ancestors and, like, through to the beginning of time.
18:54
Nicole Laino: All of the pain of your lineage.
18:57
Nicole Laino: You feel it all, and you become it all.
19:00
Nicole Laino: I am myself and I am all the mothers before me.
19:03
Nicole Laino: That's a huge theme throughout the book.
19:04
Nicole Laino: So it's been very interesting that is what I pulled off the shelf.
19:08
Nicole Laino: I was like, I'm going to read Dune where I'm going to kind of immerse myself in these.
19:13
Nicole Laino: So maybe I unintentionally created an altar in that respect.
19:17
Christina Luna: Absolutely.
19:18
Christina Luna: I think that the wisdom of what we're craving and called to, it's probably the wisest parts of us.
19:26
Christina Luna: Our cravings are probably some of the wisest parts of us, to be honest.
19:29
Christina Luna: And they're going to feel irrational right now, honestly, Like, Cancer season is not a rational time.
19:35
Christina Luna: It's when the emotions are designed to override the rational mind, to make something so tangibly clear to us, we can't ignore it with the brain or override it.
19:48
Christina Luna: And it's supposed to scramble the system just a little bit so that we can be more authentic.
19:54
Nicole Laino: In Leo season, mission accomplished.
19:56
Nicole Laino: On the scrambling, it has been a scramble, and I know that I've heard that from clients, I've heard that from other people.
20:03
Nicole Laino: There's just some crazy stuff.
20:04
Nicole Laino: And I think everybody feels a little destabilized at the moment, at least here in the US I've been hearing that from a lot of people where I posted some things on Instagram and I got a lot of private messages from people just being like, yeah, I'm feeling all of that, too.
20:17
Nicole Laino: I don't know what to do.
20:18
Nicole Laino: And I think, you know, you said something before we hit record where you were saying, what this stuff reminds me of is that this is what connects us to other people, that it isn't all us.
20:31
Nicole Laino: It isn't all just personal.
20:33
Nicole Laino: And I think, you know, we have Saturn and Neptune that are in the same gate.
20:38
Nicole Laino: The Gate of Universal Love, which is about healing the bigger wounds that we have.
20:45
Nicole Laino: I've talked about this in the Transit episodes before, but this is going to be a theme for a while.
20:49
Nicole Laino: These two are going to be side by side for a bit.
20:52
Nicole Laino: At least in the human design aspects.
20:54
Nicole Laino: They are conjunct when they're in that same gate.
20:57
Nicole Laino: Our nodes were in this theme at the start of the year.
20:59
Nicole Laino: There's like, this is something that we are being called to see that we are not separate, that we are one.
21:06
Nicole Laino: And now that we are in our feels and that we're seeing things happen in the world, I think that we are being called to see that we are connected to other people, that this is bigger than just us and our story and our thing and our world and our business and whatever it is that we are experiencing.
21:23
Nicole Laino: I think that's one of the beautiful things about social media.
21:25
Nicole Laino: I have lots of problems with social media, but I do think that when people share something that's real and when they share something that's true, other people feel seen and feel safe to share that truth too.
21:37
Nicole Laino: I think that there's a lot of gaming going on social media where there's an agenda and that starts to muddy the water there.
21:46
Nicole Laino: But I think those moments can poke through where we can draw ourselves a little bit closer to others in that way.
21:54
Nicole Laino: But what are you seeing this month that you think is like, this is just a greater theme that when Christina and I were talking before we started this cancer aspect and just cancer season and all of this is the main theme.
22:07
Nicole Laino: This is the highlight.
22:08
Nicole Laino: Like, this is what we're all going through right now.
22:10
Nicole Laino: Even more so than the gates and all the things.
22:12
Nicole Laino: But what do you have circled on the map on the calendar that you were like, I want to mention these things?
22:18
Christina Luna: Well, I will say historically, since I've been tracking this since 2018, okay.
22:25
Christina Luna: I've been tracking these first couple weeks of July and how it unravels into Leo season.
22:32
Christina Luna: Historically, these are times that we cannot force structure.
22:38
Christina Luna: This is a time to allow the tomato seeds on the dishes in the sink to sprout.
22:44
Christina Luna: If you've got a stack of laundry that you're just not dealing with.
22:47
Christina Luna: If you're feeling like laying in bed, if you're feeling like you need more dream time, if you're feeling like you just want to go into coping mechanisms, comfort eating, watching binging shows.
23:02
Christina Luna: This is actually the time with all of my clients, I actually suggest that July be the month where you take the pressure off as entrepreneurs and you create the most unstructured play as possible.
23:16
Christina Luna: And the message is in unstructured play, in the chaos of spreading everything out and creating that sacred mess, there are patterns that are allowed to emerge that would have never emerged within the structure.
23:31
Christina Luna: And so it might feel really uncomfortable at first to allow everything to unravel.
23:36
Christina Luna: But the unraveling has a way of bringing things together in a creative way that is completely novel, that's never come together before, that can completely revolutionize your entire reality.
23:50
Christina Luna: Because especially this year, specifically, Uranus is moving into Gemini for a seven year kind of hurrah.
23:59
Christina Luna: And while it was in Taurus, Uranus had us helping us to understand what was absolutely mandatory for us to survive, what is absolutely sustainable.
24:09
Christina Luna: We had fluctuations in our wealth, fluctuations in our health, we had fluctuations in our belief in what's secure in Society since 2018.
24:18
Christina Luna: I mean, you can think about all the things that have changed socially.
24:21
Christina Luna: Yeah.
24:22
Christina Luna: When it comes to what's essential and sustainable.
24:25
Christina Luna: And now it's moving into Gemini and in Gemini, that's where cross pollination can happen.
24:32
Christina Luna: So the people who are allowing themselves to unravel their personal stories unravel.
24:38
Christina Luna: We've got the south node in Virgo.
24:40
Christina Luna: We were talking about that unravel this belief that you do everything all by yourself, that you are an island unto yourself, that you are a microstructure that can exist solely alone.
24:52
Christina Luna: So we're unraveling that.
24:54
Christina Luna: We are unraveling our relationships that were dependent so we found inner security more secure than we've probably ever been.
25:04
Christina Luna: Even if we're feeling a little emotionally unstable, we are more open to collaboration with other people's ideas.
25:12
Christina Luna: And the more we release our attachment to structure in our daily lives, the more we can have more personally novel ideas that will cross pollinate with other people's ideas.
25:22
Christina Luna: So it's a really incredibly exciting time for solutions.
25:28
Christina Luna: Solutions that bring more than us into.
25:31
Nicole Laino: The equation, but they can't be planned.
25:34
Nicole Laino: This sounds like there's a lot of like trust in synchronicity that is being.
25:38
Christina Luna: Brought to us by Pluto in Aquarius, Making sure that the more that we vibrate at our own native authentic frequency, the more you will repel people who are not of that frequency and attract people who are.
25:53
Christina Luna: So they're all conspiring to shake the sand and bring the like particles together so that they can create new compounds.
26:01
Christina Luna: I think we're going to have scientific breakthroughs.
26:04
Christina Luna: We're already having technological breakthroughs.
26:06
Christina Luna: Could you imagine if all the technological fields came Together with an idea of novelty to find solutions.
26:15
Nicole Laino: You know what the new solution I want to slow down the technology because it's moving so fast and let's find some solutions for what we're going to do with this new technology.
26:29
Nicole Laino: And not from a sense of like this is where I want government, this is where I want leaders to be thinking, where do people fit in to this whole technological boom and change and world of AI and robots and you know, self driving cars and the whole thing like because what you're talking about, because we're into structure, the old maybe being stuck in our ways that we have to rattle the cage a little bit to say, well okay, but are we thinking about 10 years from now when a bunch of the jobs are gone and what do we do now?
27:04
Nicole Laino: And I don't think that we need the old tools and the old structures are not going to give us answer for the world that hasn't really arrived yet but is totally on the horizon.
27:16
Nicole Laino: And I think we know enough about it that we could start asking some really good questions.
27:21
Nicole Laino: And that unfortunately we're so distracted with the real insanity that's happening in our world that we can't have those good conversations because we're preoccupied with just things falling apart.
27:36
Nicole Laino: And how can we have a real conversation?
27:39
Christina Luna: The solution is in getting, just intensifying what you just said.
27:43
Christina Luna: So the more that you systemize, the more that you create structure from the old, the more that you distract, the greater the crisis builds under the surface.
27:54
Christina Luna: And as that crisis opens, the deep human need and vulnerability begins to be expressed.
28:02
Christina Luna: So you know that in a marriage.
28:03
Christina Luna: Let's look at the structure of a marriage.
28:05
Christina Luna: Marriage is an old institution.
28:07
Christina Luna: It's based on certain like milestones and principles that we all sort of recognize.
28:12
Christina Luna: Right.
28:12
Christina Luna: I don't need to go over what that looks like.
28:14
Christina Luna: But you know that a marriage without the emotional vulnerable conversations grows cold and stale and systematic.
28:23
Christina Luna: It becomes two ships passing if there's not the emotional component.
28:28
Christina Luna: And sometimes people will hold it in and hold it in.
28:32
Christina Luna: And then one day it ruptures.
28:35
Christina Luna: All of the emotions flood out.
28:37
Christina Luna: It could look like a volcanic eruption, it could look like crack crying.
28:40
Christina Luna: It could look like a breach in trust, it could look like a breach in values and vows.
28:45
Christina Luna: It's a breach, let's just say it's a rupture.
28:48
Christina Luna: But that vulnerable terrain, when it's all messy and we don't know what is what and the entire future could change, that's when the Truth can be found in the heart.
28:59
Christina Luna: And if people still love each other in that structure, if the love is still there, the true vulnerable need for the parties in the relationship can actually be expressed.
29:10
Christina Luna: And when that vulnerable need is deeply expressed and love is still there, repair can begin happening and dramatic change can happen.
29:17
Christina Luna: So that's a micro cause of what can happen on a global scale as well.
29:21
Christina Luna: But while we're distracting ourselves on our phones, laying in bed next to each other, we're not having those conversations until the pain becomes so intense that we have no choice but to fall on our knees and say, I can't do this anymore.
29:35
Christina Luna: That desire for something different is what actually changes things.
29:40
Christina Luna: And cancer season is falling on our knees and saying, I can't do this anymore.
29:45
Christina Luna: In our jobs, in our parenting, in our careers, in our marriages, in our health, in whatever area we've been tolerating and tolerating and tolerating for so long.
29:57
Nicole Laino: I think I've actually said those words, I can't do this anymore.
29:59
Nicole Laino: I think I've said those words like, I don't want to do this anymore.
30:03
Nicole Laino: This sucks.
30:03
Nicole Laino: I don't want to do this anymore.
30:05
Nicole Laino: Maybe you have, too.
30:06
Nicole Laino: And if you have, well, then, like Christina said, par for the course.
30:10
Nicole Laino: Like, this is the moment that we're in.
30:12
Nicole Laino: But I do think, like, what you're pointing to is that in those breaking points, in those breaking moments of real human honesty, like, that is usually what comes out of those breaking points.
30:22
Nicole Laino: If you really still care to have the conversation and you're not just like, I can't do this anymore.
30:27
Nicole Laino: Peace, which we see a lot of, then repair can happen, but conversation can happen, and then something new actually has the ability to bloom in that in its place.
30:39
Nicole Laino: So, yeah, we're being brought to our knees for sure.
30:42
Christina Luna: Yeah.
30:43
Christina Luna: There are a few key dates in July that I circled that I'm like.
30:48
Nicole Laino: I have a couple, too.
30:48
Nicole Laino: So what do you have?
30:50
Nicole Laino: I'm always interested to see if we have the same ones.
30:52
Christina Luna: Yeah, so I do see.
30:54
Christina Luna: First off, July 4th is going to be a day that may stir up a lot of conversations, a lot of opinion sharing.
31:04
Christina Luna: Like, people might have a lot to say and they might be feeling a lot.
31:09
Christina Luna: So there may be a lot of just words in the world.
31:12
Christina Luna: And it's a great time to take time to tell the people you love the most, the people you value the most, share the words with them.
31:20
Christina Luna: If you keep it close to home and you keep it honest and authentic and vulnerable, then these can Be really productive conversations.
31:29
Christina Luna: If these conversations become defensive, finger pointing, judgmental, there could be a lot of turmoil created from that, which will build to further dates in July.
31:42
Christina Luna: Do you see anything for that first part before I go on to the next?
31:46
Nicole Laino: Well, the first part, I was just going to mention that the first gate that we're in the sun gate is gate 39.
31:53
Nicole Laino: It's the gate of provocation.
31:55
Nicole Laino: And I think it's interesting you said that those first couple of weeks of July, just like, nothing can happen, like, no structure can be activated or used.
32:03
Nicole Laino: We're in the root from the first through, like the 13th.
32:07
Nicole Laino: And the root center.
32:08
Nicole Laino: And the root center is just pressure.
32:11
Nicole Laino: It's a pressure center and it is stress in its low frequency, in its high frequency.
32:18
Nicole Laino: It's fuel.
32:19
Nicole Laino: But it's messy.
32:20
Nicole Laino: It doesn't have structure yet.
32:24
Nicole Laino: It's pure, just like bursts of creativity.
32:28
Nicole Laino: But creativity needs to settle.
32:30
Nicole Laino: Creativity needs something to order it.
32:32
Nicole Laino: Creativity.
32:33
Nicole Laino: I'm experiencing that right now, like working on a creative project and just being like, I can't get the structure down.
32:39
Nicole Laino: I can't.
32:39
Nicole Laino: Like, I have all this creativity, but I feel like it's got no place to go right now.
32:43
Nicole Laino: Like, I don't know where to put it, but that's sort of what I see.
32:47
Nicole Laino: And that first week, would you talk about, like, that difference between having an open, honest conversation where you're sharing vulnerably and there's like an attempt at an exchange versus finger pointing and defensiveness and, you know, pushing people away.
33:02
Nicole Laino: It's the gate of provocation and the 39th gate.
33:05
Nicole Laino: It points to the emotional center.
33:07
Nicole Laino: It connects to the most spiritual gate, arguably in the chart, gate 55.
33:12
Nicole Laino: So then if you look at it from a channel perspective, what we're talking about, it's the fuel to provoke to a higher spirit.
33:18
Nicole Laino: The low frequency is to provoke for the sake of provoking, to be defensive, to needle people to push.
33:26
Nicole Laino: That's the low frequency of it.
33:27
Nicole Laino: I have this gate in my chart.
33:29
Nicole Laino: It's been a lesson for me.
33:30
Nicole Laino: This is my Jupiter.
33:31
Nicole Laino: And something that I've noticed, though, I can provoke people to a higher level of spirit when I'm in the energy and intention and spirit of that.
33:40
Nicole Laino: So I felt that as you were saying that I was like, oh, it's interesting that would be the point that you're pointing out.
33:47
Nicole Laino: And that's absolutely the low frequency of that particular gait.
33:52
Nicole Laino: So be on the lookout for that.
33:54
Nicole Laino: This is a place for openness and to really notice.
33:57
Nicole Laino: Like, am I doing this because am I doing this for the highest good?
34:00
Nicole Laino: Is really a good question.
34:02
Nicole Laino: For that first week.
34:03
Nicole Laino: It might feel like you need to have a hard conversation.
34:06
Nicole Laino: It might feel like you need to do something uncomfortable.
34:08
Nicole Laino: But am I doing it for the highest good of everybody involved or am I doing this because I want to have a tough conversation and I want to be right?
34:17
Christina Luna: Yeah.
34:18
Christina Luna: And there's going to be simulation of whatever that conversation comes to a head on the fourth and fifth.
34:24
Christina Luna: There's going to be time after that where the higher perspective would be where we're celebrating the repair.
34:33
Christina Luna: We're celebrating the new vulnerability.
34:35
Christina Luna: We're sharing and raising a glass and laughing and being joyful.
34:39
Christina Luna: But if it doesn't go well, if we are still armoring our heart, this could be over consumption of alcohol.
34:47
Christina Luna: This could be falling into delusion patterns that protect you and buffer you from the truths that have shown up.
34:55
Christina Luna: It can cause you to drive into disassociation.
34:59
Christina Luna: So be mindful from the 6th to the 10th about the potential to disassociate from the truth of what's surfaced.
35:08
Christina Luna: And know that there's a potential always to get very real and honest and start bridging some repair.
35:17
Christina Luna: But if you find yourself just, you know, having to go to the park and lay under a tree by yourself, that's not disassociation.
35:23
Christina Luna: That might be like managing your energy after a change.
35:27
Nicole Laino: So integrating.
35:30
Nicole Laino: One thing I wanted to call out in that second week is from the 7th through the 16th, we all will have.
35:38
Nicole Laino: From the 7th to the 16th, we have Mars in gate 64 and the south node will be in gate 47.
35:45
Nicole Laino: This will give everybody the channel of abstraction.
35:49
Nicole Laino: And what that's doing is that is going to create pressure, mental pressure.
35:55
Nicole Laino: You might feel like you want to figure things out.
35:59
Nicole Laino: And the lesson with this is to let go.
36:05
Nicole Laino: Trying to figure it out, trying to resolve that mental pressure does not resolve the pressure, it makes it worse and it does it every single time.
36:14
Nicole Laino: So that is such a core piece right there to recognize that if you start to feel that need and it's so easy to get caught up in it because pressure is so uncomfortable and it makes the mind race.
36:25
Nicole Laino: And only 30% of the world has a defined head most of the time.
36:29
Nicole Laino: So everybody will have one for this like week long period or like whatever that is, 10 days, that period is going to make you uncomfortable.
36:39
Nicole Laino: Most likely.
36:40
Nicole Laino: When I have a defined head, I have it now and I notice that when I get that, it creates a racing mind.
36:47
Nicole Laino: It creates a feeling like your thoughts are Just so powerful.
36:51
Nicole Laino: And you want to make the pressure go away.
36:53
Nicole Laino: And the way you want to make that pressure go away is to try to do something with those thoughts.
36:57
Nicole Laino: And unfortunately, that's not usually when it's time to do it.
37:02
Nicole Laino: There's moments.
37:03
Nicole Laino: So this is like.
37:03
Nicole Laino: I think about this, like horseback riding.
37:05
Nicole Laino: It's like, this is where you've got to have soft rein hands on the reins.
37:09
Nicole Laino: You can't be holding on tight.
37:10
Nicole Laino: You can't be trying to guide that horse someplace strongly it will buck.
37:15
Nicole Laino: You really need to be gentle and allow the wisdom, the questions.
37:21
Nicole Laino: A lot of times it's gonna be a lot of questions probably that come through, not a lot of answers, and you're gonna want answers.
37:26
Nicole Laino: And the other thing that might come from this is just in these placements, at least from the human design perspective.
37:32
Nicole Laino: The way we look at it, just with it being Mars and Mercury, you might find that it's people from your past that come up, that something that you thought was dead and buried shows up to rehash something, to make amends.
37:46
Nicole Laino: I don't know what it is, but just some sort of, like, ghost from the past comes back.
37:52
Nicole Laino: Because that's what this channel of abstraction does.
37:55
Nicole Laino: It tries to make sense of the past, to say, oh, that's why it happened.
37:58
Nicole Laino: So you might find yourself thinking about things.
38:00
Nicole Laino: You might find yourself like, I haven't thought about that in years.
38:02
Nicole Laino: I thought I had let that go.
38:04
Nicole Laino: I thought I had really worked through that.
38:06
Nicole Laino: But now here I am crying over my dad again, whatever it is.
38:10
Nicole Laino: And then you might find that somehow that's brought into your life through other people as well.
38:15
Christina Luna: Yes.
38:16
Christina Luna: And I'm so happy you brought that up because we have our Mercury retrograde starting on the 18th in Leo, and it will go until August 11th.
38:26
Christina Luna: So that period of time, it's going to be retrograding through this sign of leo.
38:31
Christina Luna: And so it's important to understand what LEO energy is actually utilized for.
38:37
Christina Luna: So if cancer energy opens us up to being humbly honest with ourselves about what's painful and true, then LEO gives us an opportunity to create something new.
38:48
Christina Luna: So you have this week that you're describing where you get to kind of drop into the things you've created in the past, the patterns you had in relationships from the past.
38:57
Christina Luna: You know, this could be a great time for taking accountability for the power you had to create the patterns that were so painful for.
39:04
Christina Luna: From previous experiences.
39:06
Christina Luna: It's not bad to approach something from a space of a loyal heart.
39:12
Christina Luna: You know, if someone from the past shows up and you feel the love and the loyal heart.
39:16
Christina Luna: That's actually a really good thing because that love for something from the past can actually humble us to take responsibility for the part of the process that we created, because we can see how we love them, and they're not actually the villain or the narcissist or whatever that we projected onto them to protect us, that we could be virtuous and right.
39:39
Christina Luna: The South Node in Virgo is saying, you have not been virtuous and right your entire life.
39:44
Christina Luna: There have been many times when you didn't know what you didn't know, and you made serious errors on your side of the pattern that created a reverse experience so that you can have greater compassion for the things you didn't know about.
39:58
Christina Luna: So this Mercury retrograde is about exploring how we created those patterns or rewriting how we move forward with what we create in the future and understanding that no matter what mess we make, it's going to be a valuable human experience.
40:15
Christina Luna: That's my mantra for the month of July.
40:18
Christina Luna: No matter what mess I'm making, it's going to give me a valuable experience as a human.
40:23
Christina Luna: I'm not here to keep everything perfectly clean and tidy and perfect and tight and amazing.
40:29
Christina Luna: I'm here to have a human experience and be messy about it.
40:33
Christina Luna: And ultimately, those are the most fulfilling experiences that I come out of that.
40:38
Nicole Laino: Will be an exercise for my Virgo.
40:40
Nicole Laino: Yeah, I feel like that's been, you know, my life lesson.
40:43
Nicole Laino: Like that is the story of my life is learning that.
40:47
Nicole Laino: That I'm creating this messy human experience and allow it to be messy and it doesn't need to be perfect.
40:52
Nicole Laino: And it's all valuable and valid if I allow it to be.
40:56
Nicole Laino: And if I find the lessons and the compassion and I grow from the experiences that I have, can I tell.
41:02
Christina Luna: You one tiny little anecdotal story that humbled the crap out of me?
41:06
Nicole Laino: Sure.
41:07
Christina Luna: I have a lot of Libra placements, and so I like to appear very diplomatic when I'm co parenting, for instance.
41:14
Christina Luna: Right.
41:15
Christina Luna: So I used to be in a relationship with a cancer who was very emotional, very sensitive to energies, could really tell even when I couldn't feel it, even when I was intellectualizing my own feelings.
41:29
Christina Luna: He could feel what I was feeling, and he could tell when I was being diplomatic.
41:35
Christina Luna: And my diplomacy and careful words actually caused him to not trust me because he could feel that I wasn't being honest about how I felt.
41:45
Christina Luna: I was trying to be fair.
41:47
Christina Luna: I was trying to do the right thing.
41:49
Christina Luna: I had good reasons for holding my emotions, like for myself and not spilling them all over the place.
41:55
Christina Luna: But he perceived it as an incongruence, and it caused him to not trust me.
42:01
Christina Luna: And it caused a lot of rupture in our relationship, because when he didn't trust me, he defended himself.
42:05
Christina Luna: And when he defended himself, he acted more unpredictable, which caused me to be even more diplomatic.
42:11
Christina Luna: And that's a pattern that we experienced over and over.
42:14
Christina Luna: And so this month, I'm giving permission to all the very harmonious, diplomatic, careful, emotionally mature listeners that sharing a little bit of that messy emotional truth is actually trust building.
42:31
Christina Luna: And we are opening the heart to greater loyalty and love and trust.
42:36
Christina Luna: When we get into Leo season around the 22nd, and there's a new moon on the 24th, that new moon is going to be pronounced a pronounced new beginning that releases the past creative patterns and opens us up to something very new and novel that we've never experienced before.
42:56
Christina Luna: Because of its relationship to Saturn and Neptune in Aries, because of its opposition to Pluto, there's this really ripe moment where we get to bring all of the pieces together and in a creative new Moon.
43:09
Christina Luna: And I think astrologers are gonna be talking about it like crazy, how it's like a once in a lifetime new moon.
43:14
Christina Luna: But every single day is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
43:18
Christina Luna: And the opportunity just seems to be a different.
43:22
Christina Luna: We don't always like the opportunity that's being given to us.
43:24
Christina Luna: And frankly, the opportunity we have leading up to that new Moon is the opportunity to be very messy, open, and vulnerable.
43:31
Christina Luna: And the opportunity we got on the 24th is to use all of the energy that is unbound by our permission slip to do to create something new.
43:41
Nicole Laino: I always say we get to choose and we get to have the best intentions and we get to put a vision out there and everything, but we don't get to decide how it comes to us.
43:49
Nicole Laino: And that's the part that I think throws us for a loop, is it's like, I didn't expect it to come like this.
43:54
Nicole Laino: I didn't know that wanting this thing or getting this thing was going to mean letting go of this other thing.
43:59
Nicole Laino: And if you can meet all of these moments and these human experiences with grace and with openness and honesty, that's where real growth and change, and this is why it is all once in a lifetime opportunities.
44:12
Nicole Laino: We get them all the time.
44:14
Nicole Laino: Just sometimes the energy is supporting certain types of growth, and sometimes it's supporting something else.
44:19
Nicole Laino: We take what we're given in those moments.
44:22
Nicole Laino: And if we make the most of it, then we can actually start to see real change.
44:26
Nicole Laino: The only other thing that I wanted to bring up was we're closing out the month.
44:31
Nicole Laino: So from the 13th through the end of the month, we're in the throat center.
44:35
Nicole Laino: So once again, we're closing out the throat center.
44:37
Nicole Laino: This is like the last hurrah of like the action taking portion of like let's do the thing, you know, we're opening up LEO season with it.
44:46
Nicole Laino: Leo is obviously a very outward sort of sign.
44:50
Nicole Laino: It takes action, it shows up.
44:52
Nicole Laino: And this is the throat center stuff that comes from the mind.
44:55
Nicole Laino: And then we go into really what it means to be us and expressing ourselves and expressing who we are.
45:03
Nicole Laino: And we have, you know, Mercury and the sun.
45:06
Nicole Laino: We start off like we're ending the month and then kicking off August with this conjunct between the sun and mercury in the 33rd gate.
45:14
Nicole Laino: And the 33rd gate is such a funny one because it's an action taking gate in the sense that it's in the throat.
45:21
Nicole Laino: So anything in the throat is about manifestation, about making things happen, about doing things.
45:26
Nicole Laino: But the 33 and then the gate before it, the 31, these are about leadership and they just lead in different ways.
45:33
Nicole Laino: The 31 is about influence and that's the last week of the month.
45:36
Nicole Laino: And then right before we switch over on the 30th, we go into the 33rd gate and that's where we have that conjunct with Mercury.
45:44
Nicole Laino: It's retreat, which is such a funny word for something that has to do with action.
45:48
Nicole Laino: It's about learning the lessons.
45:50
Nicole Laino: I feel like we're being called at the end of the month, like this is a great month to me to do.
45:56
Nicole Laino: Like, if you want to write a post, if you want to share something on substack, if you want to send it out to your newsletter or you just want to write it in your journal.
46:02
Nicole Laino: But do this, do a reflection exercise at the end of this month.
46:07
Nicole Laino: If you don't do them regularly, take stock of what happened.
46:12
Nicole Laino: This is probably, like we said, we've spent, you know, almost an hour going through like what a turbulent kind of month this might be emotionally.
46:20
Nicole Laino: Really reflect on it at the end of the month.
46:23
Nicole Laino: Sit down with yourself and reflect.
46:26
Nicole Laino: I call it the postmortem gate, which is like a really ugly term for it.
46:30
Nicole Laino: But it's, you know, it's that what worked, what didn't and why, what did I feel this month?
46:35
Nicole Laino: What was I being called to?
46:36
Nicole Laino: Did I rise to it or Is there still more work for me to do in this area?
46:41
Nicole Laino: And I'm going to continue.
46:44
Nicole Laino: But that act of reflection, of really thinking before we speak of, like, that is very much what this is about.
46:51
Nicole Laino: But it's about, like, what stories need to be told, what experiences need to be shared, and can they be shared from a vulnerable place so that other people might learn it?
46:59
Nicole Laino: I think there's an opportunity for us.
47:01
Nicole Laino: You know, from an entrepreneurial content perspective.
47:04
Nicole Laino: It could be something that you share a reflection, or it can be just for you.
47:09
Nicole Laino: But whatever it is, take that time, because I just see that as being a very strong moment at the end of the month that's asking us to sit and reflect for a moment.
47:23
Nicole Laino: Anything else you want to share before we let the lovely listeners go on with their day?
47:29
Christina Luna: yeah.
47:30
Christina Luna: You know, I remember something I was going to share earlier, and as everyone that's been listening knows, I've been with a new man since last October, and we're now living together.
47:42
Christina Luna: And we had a discussion just a couple nights ago about how I still feel that a future version of me, a very old version of me that's laying on her deathbed in between, like the worlds getting ready to release her attachment to this life and move into whatever next iteration she.
48:04
Christina Luna: She has been granted the ability to relive her life from a certain checkpoint.
48:11
Christina Luna: And I think I chose the eclipse in September to begin reliving my life.
48:17
Christina Luna: And even though I have the capacity to peer into the future and see how things will go, I have actively decided to just experience everything at face value as if it's the most delicious thing I've ever tasted in my entire life.
48:34
Christina Luna: And I don't want to rush through it.
48:36
Christina Luna: I don't want to get to the next thing.
48:38
Christina Luna: I'm just relishing every single experience of my life right now because I'm already dying.
48:44
Christina Luna: I'm already on my way out, and I'm getting this gift to relive this part.
48:50
Christina Luna: And so no other time in the year is more apt for that type of energy than the month of July.
48:58
Christina Luna: The month of July says, gosh, this is so this could all be over in a blink.
49:03
Christina Luna: You could be on your deathbed right now and grateful to be reliving this one moment in every single detail, in slow, nuanced kisses in the kitchen and letting the music actually sink in and letting you taste everything like, this is what life is about and made for.
49:21
Christina Luna: And so if there's any time that you could just not try to fast Forward is the month of July.
49:27
Christina Luna: Yeah.
49:27
Nicole Laino: Really hold those moments.
49:29
Nicole Laino: And it's the little moments.
49:31
Nicole Laino: I love that.
49:32
Nicole Laino: Did you see the movie My Old Ass?
49:34
Nicole Laino: Did you see that?
49:34
Nicole Laino: It's on Netflix.
49:36
Nicole Laino: Oh, my gosh.
49:38
Christina Luna: They made me cry so hard.
49:39
Nicole Laino: I cried through almost the whole thing because I was anticipating what was going to happen.
49:44
Nicole Laino: Like, I kind of figured out.
49:46
Nicole Laino: I'm like, oh, my God.
49:47
Nicole Laino: Oh, my God, it's going to be this.
49:48
Nicole Laino: And you're just, yeah.
49:49
Nicole Laino: If you haven't watched that movie.
49:51
Nicole Laino: And this is a good one, because I do find that we're all going to be on our feels.
49:55
Nicole Laino: We're all going to be feeling human.
49:57
Nicole Laino: I tell this to my emotional authority clients all the time.
50:00
Nicole Laino: If you're emotional and you're in, like, the emotional wave, listen to the saddest song that you have.
50:07
Nicole Laino: Like, you were saying, create an altar.
50:08
Nicole Laino: Like, allow the feeling.
50:09
Nicole Laino: Don't resist it.
50:10
Nicole Laino: And watch a sad movie.
50:12
Nicole Laino: So if you're finding that you are in your feels, and I get that.
50:15
Nicole Laino: I feel like I'm on the verge of tears, but it's not coming.
50:18
Nicole Laino: And I feel like I'm in between.
50:19
Nicole Laino: And it's like, oh, I gotta cry.
50:21
Nicole Laino: It's like, reminds me of when I was a teenager.
50:23
Nicole Laino: You drank too much and you're like, I must throw up now or I'm just gonna feel sick for, like, the next day.
50:29
Nicole Laino: So if you need to cry, go watch the movie.
50:31
Nicole Laino: It's on Netflix.
50:32
Nicole Laino: It's called My Old Ass.
50:34
Nicole Laino: It is funny, it's entertaining, and it's also so delightfully sad.
50:38
Nicole Laino: But it's like, the best cry.
50:40
Nicole Laino: But that was what it was reminding me of.
50:42
Nicole Laino: When you were telling your story, I was like, it's like, my old ass.
50:45
Nicole Laino: I think it is.
50:46
Christina Luna: It's exactly like that.
50:47
Christina Luna: And I actually watched that early on in my relationship.
50:50
Nicole Laino: So check out that movie.
50:51
