- 0:28Nicole Laino: And I'm here with my lovely, talented, and beautiful friend, Christina Luna.
- 0:33Christina Luna: Hello, love.
- 0:34Christina Luna: Hello.
- 0:35Christina Luna: Happy New Year.
- 0:36Christina Luna: Happy New Year.
- 0:38Nicole Laino: Oh, my goodness.
- 0:39Christina Luna: It is our.
- 0:40Nicole Laino: I love that you are our first episode of the year that this is how we kick off the entire new.
- 0:45Christina Luna: Year with just the two of us.
- 0:48Nicole Laino: This is actually going to air, though, on New Year's Eve.
- 0:52Christina Luna: Oh.
- 0:53Nicole Laino: So it's.
- 0:53Nicole Laino: This is like we get to ring in the new year with everybody.
- 0:56Nicole Laino: We get to, like, hopefully you're listening to this on, like, one of the first days of the year, but wow, 2025.
- 1:04Nicole Laino: Particularly from September to December.
- 1:08Nicole Laino: The blink of an eye to me.
- 1:10Christina Luna: Yeah.
- 1:11Christina Luna: Okay, so this is exactly how I've been describing the feeling of this, you know, when you're moving up a staircase, how you put a foot up on the stairs and then you have to shift your weight from the back foot to the top foot.
- 1:26Christina Luna: And I think that the whole year we shifted our weight, and then September through December, we lifted the back foot and like, we lifted the back foot and it just got to the second, you know, it got to the upper step.
- 1:37Christina Luna: And energetically, there's like a moment of instability when you're moving one foot from a place that was stable to the next space.
- 1:46Christina Luna: But I feel like we all moved through that however we need it to, and now we've got both feet on the new step.
- 1:54Nicole Laino: Yeah.
- 1:55Nicole Laino: And you know what's been interesting for me is it feels like a workout, you know, like, when I'm done with a workout, I feel like I feel accomplished.
- 2:03Nicole Laino: I feel good.
- 2:04Nicole Laino: Like, there is a. I know I worked.
- 2:07Nicole Laino: Like, I know that, like, things happened that, you know, my body worked, that I got my energy up and going, and I feel like that adrenaline pumping and.
- 2:16Nicole Laino: And I feel like that's what this year felt like.
- 2:18Nicole Laino: I had the best year.
- 2:19Nicole Laino: Like, business wise, we had our best year.
- 2:22Nicole Laino: My family and I had like a wonderfully, like, it was a really good year.
- 2:25Nicole Laino: And I know a lot, but there was also a lot of challenge and a lot of heavy energy and a lot of, like, I guess difficulty is the word.
- 2:34Nicole Laino: Although I don't know if it Necessarily, if I'd categorize it as like, you know, oh, this felt hard.
- 2:40Nicole Laino: I know it did for a lot of people I'm hearing that from, like, this was hard.
- 2:44Nicole Laino: I can't wait for this year to be over.
- 2:46Nicole Laino: And I don't feel that way necessarily.
- 2:51Nicole Laino: I almost feel like I, you know, it's like a workout.
- 2:53Nicole Laino: It's like, yeah, it was a challenge.
- 2:54Nicole Laino: It was difficult, but I'm stronger, and that feels really good.
- 2:59Nicole Laino: How are you feeling about 2025 and the quickening energy and all of the things that we experienced in this, you know, challenging year of the snake for.
- 3:10Christina Luna: Me, for anyone who has an aura ring, you know, when the OURA ring deciphers that your readiness level is above average, so it puts your activity number higher to challenge you.
- 3:23Christina Luna: It was kind of like that for me.
- 3:25Christina Luna: Like, I experienced really a lot of foundational things coming into balance.
- 3:30Christina Luna: Like, in the beginning of the year, I had about $45,000 worth of debt.
- 3:35Christina Luna: And as I'm closing the year, I have only my truck payment, which is less than five grand.
- 3:39Nicole Laino: Wow.
- 3:40Christina Luna: I will be paying that off.
- 3:41Christina Luna: So I've been operating only on cash.
- 3:44Christina Luna: Got all of my debt cleared.
- 3:45Christina Luna: I moved from a, like, very expensive place to a very affordable place.
- 3:51Christina Luna: I've been living more.
- 3:52Christina Luna: A more austere life.
- 3:53Christina Luna: And all of that nervous system regulation has allowed me to go into really deep emotional archives that when I was in a higher state of productivity, I just couldn't.
- 4:05Christina Luna: I didn't have the bandwidth to go into those spaces really.
- 4:08Christina Luna: And so I mostly, around the summer months, I went into, like, really deep kind of sexual trauma stuff, you know, like deeper unconscious things around intimacy that I just didn't really have the bandwidth to explore when I was in a less regulated state.
- 4:27Christina Luna: And so I spent a lot of time receiving massage and like, remapping my entire nervous system.
- 4:33Christina Luna: Because I'm in a more regulated state.
- 4:36Christina Luna: I have the capacity to do that rewiring now.
- 4:38Christina Luna: So.
- 4:39Christina Luna: So it was kind of like less immediate situations, more really subterranean healing, more subterranean recalibration, I guess.
- 4:50Christina Luna: And as the year is ending, I feel like I've been given a brand new body.
- 4:55Christina Luna: You know, you always hear people tell you that your skin cells regenerate after so many days and your bones regenerate after a year and your muscles.
- 5:03Christina Luna: I feel like I took the last year to grow a whole new body with a new nervous system, with a new financial stability, with a new emotional relational connection.
- 5:16Christina Luna: And now I'm born, I'm all new, and I feel like I'M prepared.
- 5:21Christina Luna: I've got a very high readiness level, thriving sleep, thriving biology.
- 5:28Christina Luna: And I feel like, now, what will I do when everything's new?
- 5:33Christina Luna: And that's what 2026 feels like to me.
- 5:36Christina Luna: I feel like it's a fresh palette, a fresh canvas, all new art supplies, all new everything at my disposal to play with.
- 5:45Christina Luna: And so my approach is open, excited, curious, ready.
- 5:51Nicole Laino: I feel that, too.
- 5:53Nicole Laino: I feel like.
- 5:53Nicole Laino: And it's been December was good for me overall as a month.
- 5:58Nicole Laino: Like, we traveled in the beginning of the month, which was amazing.
- 6:01Nicole Laino: But then it was almost like I had a fuller calendar than I like, which left me with normally December.
- 6:08Nicole Laino: I keep super light and I really go like cocooning and really like release and shed.
- 6:17Nicole Laino: And I've still been doing that.
- 6:18Nicole Laino: I have felt like just what you were talking about before, about sometimes when you're in a higher state of productivity, that.
- 6:25Nicole Laino: That you don't have the space to really, you know, indulge yourself in this deeper work, in the shedding, in the.
- 6:33Nicole Laino: It's almost like your brain can't go deeper because it's got too many top of mind.
- 6:39Nicole Laino: Like, you have too many tabs open on your computer.
- 6:42Nicole Laino: So there's no rest happening.
- 6:43Nicole Laino: There's no deeper work happening.
- 6:45Nicole Laino: There's no cleansing happening.
- 6:47Nicole Laino: And that has been a challenge for me, which is part of the reason the last week of the year, I said to my team, I'm like, we're taking off.
- 6:55Nicole Laino: There's not like we're not doing anything.
- 6:58Nicole Laino: I don't want to meet.
- 6:59Nicole Laino: We're not going to be answering questions.
- 7:01Nicole Laino: We're not going to be.
- 7:02Nicole Laino: We're just not doing it.
- 7:04Nicole Laino: And I think that's necessary.
- 7:06Nicole Laino: I think that's not an optional part.
- 7:09Nicole Laino: I love that you did that all year.
- 7:10Nicole Laino: And I felt like I'm in a good cadence with doing that in general, of making sure that there are days where I don't push myself to be productive.
- 7:21Nicole Laino: It's a day for me to do what feels right for me.
- 7:24Nicole Laino: And sometimes that's just really digging into my stuff.
- 7:28Nicole Laino: And I took a lot of those days this year, but I did end up with.
- 7:32Nicole Laino: That's something I'm looking at.
- 7:33Nicole Laino: Even though I know 2026 is going to be a fast year, I can feel that.
- 7:38Nicole Laino: I can feel, and I want to talk about that, too, because were chatting before we started about, you know, this year is going to be air and fire, and I feel that already.
- 7:48Nicole Laino: Like, I feel the pull of that speed and initiation, energy and imagination and all of that, like, I feel all of that being pulled toward it.
- 8:01Nicole Laino: So now I'm thinking about how I can create more space so that can feel good and not feel crazy.
- 8:09Nicole Laino: But would you like to talk a little bit about.
- 8:11Nicole Laino: About that or are we not there yet?
- 8:13Christina Luna: Yeah, I do.
- 8:14Christina Luna: I've been doing a lot of readings for the first quarter.
- 8:17Christina Luna: I've almost completed all my first quarter readings.
- 8:19Christina Luna: And there was different stories for everyone, like there always is.
- 8:23Christina Luna: But there were these themes that hit every single time.
- 8:27Christina Luna: And the general, like archetypal themes are we get to.
- 8:32Christina Luna: In January, we get to finish the final shedding.
- 8:36Christina Luna: It's like the final exfoliation.
- 8:38Christina Luna: It's like taking the old fingernail polish off your nails that we have all of these planets that are kind of revisiting the old guard one.
- 8:47Christina Luna: They're all kind of looking at them all.
- 8:50Christina Luna: We'll go into details about that.
- 8:51Christina Luna: But after January, we get to stand in the light of the new energy.
- 8:55Christina Luna: And the way I perceive it is, do you know, for anyone who's ever experienced watching a birth or being a part of a birth of a child, there's a period of time where you're dreaming of your child.
- 9:08Christina Luna: You're thinking about what it will feel like to hold your child or to see your child.
- 9:11Christina Luna: What kind of parent are you going to be?
- 9:13Christina Luna: How will this change you?
- 9:14Christina Luna: And so it's all imagining and dreaming.
- 9:16Christina Luna: And the imagining and dreaming is a really important part of the process.
- 9:20Christina Luna: But all of that evaporates immediately as soon as you're holding the child.
- 9:25Christina Luna: As soon as that baby is being held and you see the child, the imagination of what that child would look like is done because no more imagining.
- 9:33Christina Luna: And so I think what this quarter is preparing us for is that experience of really holding a dream that we've been thinking about, incubating, imagining, you know, preparing ourselves for, I believe, for soul lifetimes.
- 9:50Christina Luna: But especially since 2012, there's something about 2012.
- 9:56Christina Luna: There was this idealized fantasy that we incubated, and now we get to actually hold it.
- 10:01Christina Luna: And I think it will be a lot more simple, less grandiose than we imagined it to be.
- 10:08Christina Luna: It'll be far more present, far more primal, far more experiential, a lot less mental.
- 10:17Christina Luna: Even though we're talking about moving from feminine energies of water and earth to masculine energies of fire and air, there's something immediate and tangible about masculine energy that I think we all get to experience.
- 10:33Christina Luna: And that's what we're preparing for in January.
- 10:36Christina Luna: What can we do to make ourselves completely Physically available to receive the tangible experience that we've been incubating.
- 10:45Nicole Laino: I feel like, I feel that coming.
- 10:47Nicole Laino: I think you just put words to like what I was feeling about like needing to clear these things.
- 10:52Nicole Laino: Like there is a swimming in ideas and thoughts and all of this stuff of like, what could it be?
- 10:59Nicole Laino: And there will come a time where it's like, it's just gonna be.
- 11:02Nicole Laino: It's just gonna be what it is.
- 11:04Nicole Laino: So I think that you beautifully, as always, put that into words what I was thinking and feeling.
- 11:10Nicole Laino: Cause people ask me all the time, they're like, can you feel a transit before it comes?
- 11:16Nicole Laino: And I do think that we feel where energy is moving.
- 11:20Nicole Laino: Like, I certainly experience that.
- 11:22Christina Luna: Do you?
- 11:23Christina Luna: Well, yeah.
- 11:23Christina Luna: I think that part of our mind and our ability to have long time perception is to perceive around corners, to prepare our nervous system for what is around the corner.
- 11:36Christina Luna: Empathic people do this all the time.
- 11:38Christina Luna: People who are energetically sensitive.
- 11:40Christina Luna: We can feel around the corner so that we prepare our nervous system in advance for what we'll encounter around the corner.
- 11:47Christina Luna: Yeah.
- 11:48Christina Luna: And so I know that a lot of times intuition and attraction to models of being like astrology or human design, it actually came from a sensitive person who was blindsided often and needed to create coping strategies so that they're nervous and blindsided and surprised by the overwhelming energetic experience.
- 12:10Christina Luna: So we learned anticipation modalities so that we can prepare our nervous system.
- 12:16Christina Luna: And I recently got that feedback from a client.
- 12:19Christina Luna: She's like, oh my gosh, it's somehow having the reading and knowing where the energy's going, like with podcasts like this.
- 12:25Christina Luna: It prepares our nervous system so that as that transition takes place, we are not so surprised.
- 12:32Christina Luna: We're in anticipation.
- 12:34Christina Luna: Because the truth is, when we create something that's never been created in our businesses, in our lives, in our households, it doesn't always represent the same way that a pregnancy represents.
- 12:46Christina Luna: You know, when a mother's holding a baby in her belly, she's got a literal person and a bulge in her body that is helping her to anticipate what's about to happen.
- 12:56Christina Luna: When we're businesses and we're, you know, operating households, it doesn't appear the same way as a bold in the belly.
- 13:04Christina Luna: So how do we measure that something's about to happen, something's about to be born, and the imagining of it is almost over because it's about to materialize.
- 13:17Nicole Laino: So yeah, I think that's an interesting thing for everybody to check in on.
- 13:22Nicole Laino: You know, are you feeling that right now?
- 13:24Nicole Laino: Because I Think that's sort of the, you know, you likening it to a pregnancy.
- 13:30Nicole Laino: It's sort of like in those days where you're in the last weeks of your pregnancy, if you've ever been pregnant or if you've known somebody who is where it's like the countdown begins, but nobody knows when it's gonna happen.
- 13:40Nicole Laino: Nobody knows exactly unless you have a scheduled birth, which, you know, fine, if you have that.
- 13:45Nicole Laino: But a little boring from the anticipation side of things.
- 13:50Nicole Laino: I remember feeling that, you know, my son came early, so it was.
- 13:54Nicole Laino: It was like, oh, here we are.
- 13:56Nicole Laino: But that anticipation that you're living in of, like, is it today?
- 14:00Nicole Laino: Is it today?
- 14:01Nicole Laino: Is it today?
- 14:02Nicole Laino: I feel like we're kind of in that now.
- 14:04Nicole Laino: So that's something for you to check in with.
- 14:06Nicole Laino: If you're listening to this.
- 14:07Nicole Laino: Are you feeling that anticipation?
- 14:10Nicole Laino: And can you have fun with it?
- 14:13Nicole Laino: Can you lean into it and just play rather than worry about perfectly planning for the unplannable?
- 14:21Nicole Laino: Potentially?
- 14:23Christina Luna: Yeah.
- 14:23Christina Luna: And there's actually a shortcut to understanding and anticipating where what part of our lives this new development is taking place.
- 14:33Christina Luna: For people who know their natal charts, you can look at the area of their life where Aries is.
- 14:38Christina Luna: There's actually quite a bit of healing going on in January, specifically from the 11th to the 17th.
- 14:46Christina Luna: There's a lot of aspects to Chiron during that week, so whatever's cropping up to be healed.
- 14:53Christina Luna: And you'll know that it's a healing moment.
- 14:55Christina Luna: If you feel like you have only two choices, you have this choice or this choice.
- 14:59Christina Luna: And the town's not big enough for both of them, so one of them's got to go.
- 15:03Christina Luna: Whenever we get that kind of energy, we always know there's a healing that can include a third option that we need to create to hold both sides of the equation.
- 15:13Christina Luna: But that thing is the Aries part of your life.
- 15:17Christina Luna: And the Aries part of our life is going to be the place where we're experiencing something brand new that we've been incubating for a long time.
- 15:26Christina Luna: And the other piece of this that's very important is to know that there's an opposite side of Aries.
- 15:31Christina Luna: So look at the Aries part of your chart and look at the Libra part of your chart.
- 15:36Christina Luna: And the Libra part of your chart is where a lot of the fruit will show up, the Aries where all the nourishment and the roots and all the work has gone in.
- 15:44Christina Luna: The Libra part is going to be where it all blooms and fruits like, for instance, I talked a lot about my body and my nervous system.
- 15:52Christina Luna: I happen to have Aries down in my fourth house.
- 15:55Christina Luna: And my fourth house is my home, my body, my nourishment, my deep archives, my origin story.
- 16:03Christina Luna: So I imagine there's going to be a birthing in that part of my life that will fuel the flowering in my Libra parts, which are my 10th House of Mission, purpose and legacy.
- 16:14Christina Luna: So that's what I'm anticipating, actually seeing the representation of all the subterranean work I've done.
- 16:20Christina Luna: But anyone who can know their natal chart can look at these two sectors and determine where the deep work is finally sprouting and what part of their life all this sprouting will nourish.
- 16:35Nicole Laino: Right, and you answered the question that I was gonna ask you for the audience, which for them they're going to look at.
- 16:41Nicole Laino: What house is Aries in?
- 16:43Nicole Laino: Because I think some people think like, oh, well, I don't have any planets in Aries, or I don't have this.
- 16:47Nicole Laino: But it's the house that we're looking at, which is how we all get the entire zodiac, is that we all have the whole thing.
- 16:54Nicole Laino: You're just going to have.
- 16:55Nicole Laino: And most people have a concentration in certain areas.
- 16:58Nicole Laino: I mean, every chart, I love looking at charts because I think it's always so interesting to see how they balance out.
- 17:05Nicole Laino: But, you know, I don't have a lot of planets or anything over in Aries, but it's in my seventh house and.
- 17:12Christina Luna: Oh, interesting.
- 17:13Nicole Laino: So that's relationships and.
- 17:15Christina Luna: Yeah, so you've been doing a lot of work on thinking about your relationship to the people that you interact with.
- 17:24Christina Luna: This is going to be your relationship to your clients, friends, social network.
- 17:29Christina Luna: The seventh house is how we develop our trust for other people, our trust for co creation and collaboration.
- 17:37Christina Luna: So you've been building your resource and you're going to have a dawning when it comes to relating to who in the world you trust and how they trust you.
- 17:48Christina Luna: And what will happen is you'll get a nourishment and a blooming of a whole new identity in your first house.
- 17:55Christina Luna: So your identity is about to completely expand and flower.
- 18:00Christina Luna: And what's interesting about that is I know a little bit about what you're transforming in your professional life, so you can expect to imagine a whole new way of identifying with yourself.
- 18:16Christina Luna: And when things are blooming in the first house, it actually affects every single house, because identity is one of the strongest drivers of values and beliefs and movement.
- 18:28Christina Luna: And so once your identity blooms, you.
- 18:30Christina Luna: You'll Be moving completely differently in the world.
- 18:33Nicole Laino: Yeah, that's something that, you know, I think it's also these themes come up, like, in our energy, and they end up coming out our mouths and coming, you know, into our work and things.
- 18:43Nicole Laino: I've been very focused on identity and on, you know, what is this?
- 18:47Nicole Laino: I feel a shift in that space.
- 18:50Nicole Laino: So that's very comforting to hear and interesting.
- 18:53Nicole Laino: And I'm actually.
- 18:55Nicole Laino: I'm excited to listen to my quarterly reading that you did for me.
- 18:58Nicole Laino: I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.
- 19:00Nicole Laino: So for everybody at home, they're looking for where is Aries in their chart?
- 19:05Nicole Laino: And then they're looking at where is Libra in their chart?
- 19:07Nicole Laino: So where is it opposite?
- 19:08Nicole Laino: So you can see that polarity of where the work is being done and where the fruit is going to come from that labor.
- 19:14Nicole Laino: But let's get into January in.
- 19:17Nicole Laino: Because there's so much.
- 19:18Nicole Laino: You and I talked briefly before we hit record, and we saw the same things we.
- 19:24Nicole Laino: Which, of course, we're looking at the same stuff, just in different ways.
- 19:27Nicole Laino: But we both highlighted and kind of honed in on the same stuff, which is that we have some energies that are pretty much marching lockstep together throughout the whole month, which is, you know, always an interesting phenomenon.
- 19:42Nicole Laino: And these ones are not necessarily always that far apart, but they're pretty much like arm in arm marching together.
- 19:49Nicole Laino: So what's your first set of dates that you're kind of focusing on or looking at is interesting?
- 19:56Christina Luna: Well, in the first three days of January, we've got Chiron moving direct and we're going to have a strong Chiron story in January.
- 20:05Christina Luna: So the intuitive directive I received from paying attention to this is pay attention to when you're following inner authority and when you're following outer authority.
- 20:17Christina Luna: And the extra consciousness we bring to this will actually serve us as we fine tune ourselves through the week.
- 20:25Christina Luna: And there's a lot of planning that I think will begin as all the planets enter Capricorn in the second week of January.
- 20:31Christina Luna: We've got conjunctions with Mars and the Sun.
- 20:34Christina Luna: We've got conjunctions with Venus and Mars.
- 20:37Christina Luna: We've got conjunctions with the sun and Venus all in capricorn from the 4th to the 10th.
- 20:42Christina Luna: And then the 10th gives us these oppositions to Jupiter.
- 20:46Christina Luna: And so there's going to be this planning, knowing whether we're using our inner authority to plan that or our outer authority.
- 20:54Nicole Laino: And.
- 20:55Christina Luna: And we're also going to be noticing if we're planning from fear or from faith.
- 21:00Christina Luna: And none of these are wrong or bad.
- 21:02Christina Luna: It's just an increase of our consciousness.
- 21:04Christina Luna: It's an increase of our observation of what we're coming from.
- 21:09Christina Luna: And I think that we can learn a lot about ourselves by observing fear and faith, which both of them can be valued.
- 21:17Christina Luna: The same faith stretches us and fear makes sure that we honor the vulnerability of our human experience.
- 21:25Christina Luna: There's not anything wrong with fear.
- 21:28Christina Luna: There's a comfort in knowing that we don't have to stress our nervous system with our plans.
- 21:32Christina Luna: We don't have to throw ourselves into the blaring cold in order to feel something or to grow.
- 21:37Christina Luna: There's an honoring of the vulnerable with Jupiter in cancer.
- 21:41Christina Luna: And there's a responsible planning with faith.
- 21:45Christina Luna: So that's what I see for the first two weeks.
- 21:47Christina Luna: And then we get into that third week.
- 21:49Christina Luna: And I want to hear what you have to say about those first two weeks before we go into that.
- 21:53Nicole Laino: Yeah, it's the same things just in.
- 21:55Nicole Laino: I'll have my own interpretation and twist on this.
- 21:58Nicole Laino: So same thing with those first three days.
- 22:01Nicole Laino: From a human design standpoint, we enter into the year in the 38th gate, but what makes this year different is the fact that Venus and Mars are also in the 38th gate.
- 22:10Nicole Laino: That we also have.
- 22:11Nicole Laino: You know, it's that conjunct that we're talking about.
- 22:13Nicole Laino: We're just looking at it from the human design standpoint.
- 22:16Nicole Laino: It's this one very specific theme of the 38th gate which sits in the root center, which it's called the gate of the fighter.
- 22:24Nicole Laino: And what I think is interesting about this because some people get turned off by this gate, you know, oh, the gate of the fighter.
- 22:29Nicole Laino: My kid has the gate of the fighter, you know, and he's such a fighter.
- 22:32Nicole Laino: And it's like, not really.
- 22:34Nicole Laino: It can be, but I think dangerous to label people with that or even label these energies like that.
- 22:41Nicole Laino: Everything has its light and dark and the light of this is to fight for your purpose.
- 22:47Nicole Laino: That's really what this is about.
- 22:49Nicole Laino: And when you say faith and your inner authority, your purpose doesn't come from an outside external.
- 22:56Nicole Laino: This is what your purpose is.
- 22:58Nicole Laino: Doesn't come from a human design reading.
- 23:00Nicole Laino: It doesn't come from, you know, what's going to get you clicks online.
- 23:05Nicole Laino: It is a deep rooted sense of direction, of my soul, of where I'm supposed to go and what I'm supposed to do.
- 23:16Nicole Laino: And because it sits in the root, this isn't an identity thing necessarily.
- 23:20Nicole Laino: This is the fuel for your purpose.
- 23:23Nicole Laino: It's like the gunshot that's setting you off, you know, like, I get the image of like when, you know, like the Olympics, when they're all lined up at the line and then the gun goes off and they dive into the water, off of the springboards in the pool or they're off and they get that first jump.
- 23:41Nicole Laino: That's sort of what this feels like for me.
- 23:43Nicole Laino: And we're getting it, you know, with Mars in the 38th gate as well.
- 23:47Nicole Laino: We're just getting that.
- 23:48Nicole Laino: I think there's going to be that extra boost of action where we may not need to work so hard for it, where that energy is just going to show up for us both in the sun and in these other spaces of like, let's go.
- 24:00Nicole Laino: It's an energy of let's go.
- 24:02Nicole Laino: But I think you do have to have an inner sense of what you're doing it for.
- 24:10Nicole Laino: Because the shadow of this and the shadow of this channel, when you have the whole channel is a sense of purposelessness.
- 24:17Nicole Laino: The light is, I know what I'm here for, and it's worth fighting for my purpose.
- 24:24Nicole Laino: And this life that I can have is worth the fight.
- 24:29Nicole Laino: It's worth the work.
- 24:31Nicole Laino: It's worth the late nights.
- 24:32Nicole Laino: It's worth it if it fuels your soul.
- 24:36Nicole Laino: It's not for some outside, outward, you know, it's not ego.
- 24:42Nicole Laino: It's not from that.
- 24:43Nicole Laino: It's from a sense of purpose, of like, this is what I'm here for.
- 24:46Nicole Laino: And it feels so good to be living it.
- 24:48Nicole Laino: And I think that's like we're getting a little taste of that right at the start of the year.
- 24:52Nicole Laino: From there, we move into the 54th gate where we do the exact same thing.
- 24:58Nicole Laino: Sun, Venus, Mars, sitting in the 54th gate with, you know, like you said, with Jupiter opposing that.
- 25:05Nicole Laino: And so we get the Earth and Jupiter in the 53rd gate and 54 is ambition.
- 25:12Nicole Laino: It's again, more root center type of energy where we have that.
- 25:16Nicole Laino: It's a funny gate because we hear ambition and it is about growth and it is about moving towards something, but it's not about going alone.
- 25:23Nicole Laino: There's something about galvanizing support.
- 25:26Nicole Laino: There's something about, you know, what's good for me is good for you and really meaning that and not having that be empty words.
- 25:34Nicole Laino: It's like growth together where we say, the analogy I always give for this or the example that I give is like, tom shoes.
- 25:42Nicole Laino: You know, buy a pair, give a pair, that kind of thing, donate a pair.
- 25:45Nicole Laino: Like, that's sort of like the energy of this is that type of ambition, like, this is good for all of us.
- 25:51Nicole Laino: Again, it's almost connected to that.
- 25:53Nicole Laino: It's right next to that purpose gate of saying, like, I have a purpose.
- 25:56Nicole Laino: This one says, we have a purpose.
- 25:58Nicole Laino: Oh, God.
- 25:59Christina Luna: So I love so dialed into everything you said.
- 26:03Christina Luna: Okay, so what I love about the Chiron squares that we experience from the 11th through the 16th, there's going to be several of them.
- 26:12Christina Luna: It's such a concentration of the same energy that we don't even need to.
- 26:16Christina Luna: Like, it's just every day that week.
- 26:18Christina Luna: Right.
- 26:19Christina Luna: But Chiron is a wound that is healing in Aries.
- 26:25Christina Luna: So we're cultivating medicine through our life experiences that are fueling the Aries part of ourselves, and the Aries part of ourselves is, I am, and I'm worthy because I am.
- 26:38Christina Luna: What is good for me is that I am and I'm worthy of being.
- 26:42Christina Luna: I am.
- 26:43Christina Luna: And when I do that, I also give that to you.
- 26:45Christina Luna: You are worthy because you are.
- 26:47Christina Luna: Whenever the healing happens inside of ourselves, we suddenly see the worthiness in others as well.
- 26:52Christina Luna: True medicine is a mirror.
- 26:55Christina Luna: And so when we are walking that week with the medicine that's healing in the immune system, we are feeling it in our heart, we're feeling it in our mind, we're feeling it in our consciousness.
- 27:07Christina Luna: Every single day that week, we're going to be noticing that if our instincts and our human desire and our human what's right for our human is right for us, the authentic experience and knowing of that, then we have to know that the authenticity is also good for them.
- 27:24Christina Luna: If I'm authentically sharing that I'm worthy to have my experience, then I'm authentically sharing that your authentic experience is also worthy.
- 27:33Christina Luna: And so the reason why there could be conflict in that week is when we're not fully walking with the medicine of that truth.
- 27:42Christina Luna: If we're somehow still thinking that they're worthy but we're not, that's very like.
- 27:48Christina Luna: Often a libra wound is something like, well, I'll sacrifice my side of the equation to balance this out so that we have harmony.
- 27:55Christina Luna: Aries is the opposite of that.
- 27:57Christina Luna: The way that I balance this equation is by really honoring where I stand in this equation and knowing that when I stand here, it may discomfort the other side of the equation, but ultimately creating authentic balance with putting myself first, which sounds a little egoic, it sounds a little selfish.
- 28:16Christina Luna: These words get thrown around often, and I think that's part of the medicine that we get to walk with.
- 28:22Christina Luna: Is it selfish to honor the what we authentically feel and need, is it selfish to honor what we actually have the energy for and what our actual truth is?
- 28:31Christina Luna: And so when you're talking about ambitions, that also falls into that.
- 28:36Christina Luna: If my ambition is to have a completely regulated nervous system where I don't have to mask anything I feel, then I can find the words to communicate that.
- 28:46Christina Luna: And I'll live in a world where I no longer mask anything I am.
- 28:51Christina Luna: So that's just a small example.
- 28:53Christina Luna: But it'll be on whatever scale, in whatever location of our life that we have the Aries energy.
- 28:59Nicole Laino: Oh, I love that.
- 29:00Nicole Laino: I think that's one of those things too, that we're seeing is from a human design standpoint as well.
- 29:08Nicole Laino: I'm just pulling up, looking at another aspect of the chart and I'm jumping ahead a little bit here.
- 29:13Nicole Laino: Before I jump ahead, I want to, you know, again the entire month we have this sort of phenomenon of everything sort of like just kind of tracking together for so long, but we are closing out.
- 29:26Nicole Laino: We've had Saturn in the 36th gate.
- 29:29Nicole Laino: This is an energy.
- 29:30Nicole Laino: And Neptune has been in the 25th gate.
- 29:32Nicole Laino: I've been talking about this all, you know, for.
- 29:35Nicole Laino: Not all year.
- 29:36Nicole Laino: Neptune, I've been talking about almost all year.
- 29:38Nicole Laino: And then the 36th gate for Saturn as well.
- 29:41Nicole Laino: These themes of compassion and real connection to something that's that we don't lose ourselves.
- 29:49Nicole Laino: Just like what you were saying.
- 29:50Nicole Laino: We don't lose our own identity in all of it, but we also recognize the value of everybody else's identity and that we have compassion for people having different experiences than us and more this year.
- 30:02Nicole Laino: I know that I think a lot of the difficulty and I think there's.
- 30:05Nicole Laino: Some people think it's the things that have been happening, but I think that there's part of the heaviness has just felt like this has been a heavy year collectively.
- 30:14Nicole Laino: We've seen a lot of really ugly things probably up close, and then we've seen them just, you know, out in the world.
- 30:21Nicole Laino: And we're closing that out at the end of the month or like the 26th.
- 30:26Nicole Laino: Yeah, the 26th.
- 30:27Nicole Laino: Ish.
- 30:28Nicole Laino: You know, Saturn moves into the 25th gate again.
- 30:31Nicole Laino: So we have Neptune.
- 30:32Nicole Laino: And Saturn will be on that same track of.
- 30:35Nicole Laino: And this is that gate that says the 25th gate says, you know, we are all one, we are all connected.
- 30:42Nicole Laino: I mean, they always move together 36 into 25, 36.
- 30:46Nicole Laino: As we all have different experiences.
- 30:48Nicole Laino: Life is here to be experienced.
- 30:50Nicole Laino: And the wisdom of this we're being called.
- 30:53Nicole Laino: And my Question is, where are you with this theme?
- 30:57Nicole Laino: Because we have been working through this gate has worked its way through us in multiple placements throughout the entire year.
- 31:05Nicole Laino: It was in our nodes for several months and then went into Saturn and then it was in Jupiter.
- 31:12Nicole Laino: We had this theme coming through of compassion, of being able to really see other people.
- 31:18Nicole Laino: To say, like, you had that experience, life is worth experiencing, that's what it is to leap and see if the net appears.
- 31:26Nicole Laino: And if it doesn't, you've learned, maybe the net doesn't grow over there, maybe it won't catch me.
- 31:31Nicole Laino: But to also see that other people are tripping and falling.
- 31:35Nicole Laino: And instead of judging and criticizing them for not getting it right, you lend them a hand and you say, I've been there too, and I feel like we're going to be closing this out.
- 31:45Nicole Laino: So to me, there's.
- 31:46Nicole Laino: I feel called to just talk about that theme because I do think we're being pitted against each other.
- 31:52Nicole Laino: We are being told that, you know, there's a lot of othering going on.
- 31:57Nicole Laino: And the 25th gate coming back into Saturn.
- 32:01Nicole Laino: We're about to learn a lesson about how connected we really are.
- 32:05Christina Luna: I feel like probably if every listener imagines where the one primary area, they experience the othering in their own lives.
- 32:15Christina Luna: I can tell you from the way I'm designed, I navigated my first full year of being separated from my daughter's father last year.
- 32:24Christina Luna: And so he got to represent the other.
- 32:27Christina Luna: And I had many opportunities to witness myself wanting to other him and judge his experience or judge his behaviors or judge.
- 32:38Christina Luna: And I loved this person for a really long.
- 32:40Christina Luna: Like, I still love this person.
- 32:41Christina Luna: I love him so much.
- 32:43Christina Luna: I walked with him for such a long time, and I'm still walking with him.
- 32:47Christina Luna: And a lesson that came to a really clear healing was around truly loving him and understanding that he is really a representation of myself as well.
- 33:00Christina Luna: And that when I'm loving him, it's best for our daughter.
- 33:03Christina Luna: When we find common ground.
- 33:05Christina Luna: We're not judging each other.
- 33:06Christina Luna: It really is best for our daughter.
- 33:08Christina Luna: It's best for him, it's best for me.
- 33:10Christina Luna: I know that there were really huge global experiences that some of us hooked into to experience that other.
- 33:18Christina Luna: I just happen to have it in a more personal place.
- 33:20Nicole Laino: Yeah.
- 33:21Christina Luna: But I would imagine by the end of this year, well, literally the week between the 18th and the 24th of January, we actually experience all the planets moving over Pluto, and Pluto is in Aquarius in this new place that's drawing a line with vibration.
- 33:37Christina Luna: There's no tolerance in the universal system.
- 33:41Christina Luna: There's a line drawn, there's a sentinel that is saying, when you don't hold your sacred vibration, you feel loss.
- 33:51Christina Luna: You feel like you're out in the cold.
- 33:52Christina Luna: You feel like you're outside of the solar system.
- 33:55Christina Luna: Pluto holds the boundary for us in our solar system, in our psychological solar system.
- 34:02Christina Luna: And so with Pluto there, Pluto's saying, I'm holding a vibration.
- 34:06Christina Luna: And I want you to notice if you're ever not within the bounds of this vibration, because the vibe is moving up.
- 34:12Christina Luna: We are, we are moving consciousness up in vibration.
- 34:16Christina Luna: Which is why a lot of the turmoil we experience in the world actually has exploded so much.
- 34:23Christina Luna: Because as we're increasing a vibration, the volumes turned up on all these low vibrational experiences that were in the shadows.
- 34:31Christina Luna: And so all of the low vibration is being witnessed and it's triggering the low vibrational pockets of consciousness within ourselves.
- 34:40Christina Luna: So when you look at it, you bring your consciousness to it.
- 34:43Christina Luna: Then what is your vibration as you observe it in yourself?
- 34:47Christina Luna: So the 18th or the 24th, we have all the planets kind of parading over this spot, asking each individual, when you look at these things and the parts of you that have been hidden or subterranean are suddenly surfaced, how do you hold that vibration within yourself?
- 35:06Christina Luna: What's your judgment of yourself and the other?
- 35:09Christina Luna: So I expect that question will be very apparently answered in our nervous system, in our lives, in the world stage.
- 35:17Christina Luna: And we have an opportunity to make that choice ourselves.
- 35:21Nicole Laino: Okay, so everything you just said kind of beautifully, and we tend to do this to each other too, where it's like that segued perfectly into exactly what I was going to talk about next.
- 35:32Nicole Laino: So the Human Design New Year, there's so many New Years.
- 35:35Nicole Laino: There's the actual.
- 35:36Christina Luna: Our calendar New Year, we talk about.
- 35:38Nicole Laino: The lunar new year on February 17th.
- 35:40Nicole Laino: Well, the human design new year is on January 22nd.
- 35:45Nicole Laino: That is when the sun goes into gate 41.
- 35:48Nicole Laino: And gate 41, it's called the gate of decrease contraction, which is such a funny name for it, because really what it's about is hope.
- 35:57Nicole Laino: But I think it's a contraction before, like an explosion into just the first thing.
- 36:04Nicole Laino: It's in DNA, it's known as the start codon.
- 36:07Nicole Laino: It's the one that says to the DNA, let's go.
- 36:10Nicole Laino: There's one start codon, and this is it.
- 36:12Nicole Laino: So this is kind of the beginning of the whole experience.
- 36:15Nicole Laino: So that's why it's the Human Design New Year is when this first, the sun comes into this Gate in the first line.
- 36:20Nicole Laino: Well, but given where we are, Mercury and Venus are also in this gate at the exact same time.
- 36:27Nicole Laino: So the 21st to the 22nd.
- 36:29Nicole Laino: And this happens at.
- 36:31Nicole Laino: They are in that same lockstep pattern just for like those two days, the 22nd and the 23rd.
- 36:37Nicole Laino: But that energy of, like, starting something, of going.
- 36:42Nicole Laino: Of, you know, initiation, so to speak.
- 36:46Nicole Laino: So with that being the Human Design New Year, what we do, you know, we can look at kind of theme for every year.
- 36:53Nicole Laino: There's a Human design kind of theme for the year, collective lesson, so to speak, of what we're going to be experiencing.
- 37:01Nicole Laino: And this year, it's about our direction as a people.
- 37:05Nicole Laino: It's the nodes that are kind of telling our story from a human design perspective.
- 37:10Nicole Laino: And this is the 40th gate and the 37th gate, that channel of community.
- 37:14Nicole Laino: And I think that's interesting because this is part of the, you know, the 2027 change.
- 37:20Nicole Laino: This is part of that background frequency that's going away in 2027.
- 37:24Nicole Laino: What we talk about, that if we're not learning how to take care of each other now and how we are important to each other, and that maybe our systems and our infrastructure and ways of doing things as a collective have to change and evolve.
- 37:41Nicole Laino: It doesn't mean that there's no place for them anymore, that there's no place for togetherness, for looking out for each other, for taking care of others.
- 37:51Nicole Laino: You know, do unto others as they will do unto you.
- 37:54Nicole Laino: Taking care of somebody else and lending them a hand or lending them a hug based on what they need and expecting nothing in return, but also knowing that if you needed it, they would give it too.
- 38:04Nicole Laino: That, you know, people talk about this going away in 2027 and, like, you know, there won't be any togetherness anymore.
- 38:11Nicole Laino: We won't have this same need for it.
- 38:14Nicole Laino: We'll see all of these systems and infrastructures crumbling.
- 38:19Nicole Laino: I think they're going to change.
- 38:21Nicole Laino: I think they're going to shift.
- 38:22Nicole Laino: And I think the trap is to think that, you know, it's all or nothing, babe.
- 38:26Nicole Laino: And I think that this year it's interesting to me that we're kicking off where that's going to be sort of that New Year theme that's set for us is the one.
- 38:34Nicole Laino: It's our last year of it.
- 38:36Nicole Laino: And it's going to be the thing that's sort of defining our lesson for this year is understanding this fundamental connection that we have together, this fundamental need for each other and to not just say And I see it a lot in these circles, in the human design circles, in the astrology circles.
- 38:52Nicole Laino: It's like, you know, where governments are going to go away, you know, banking is going to go away.
- 38:56Nicole Laino: That don't feed into that narrative of that because something shifts, that it can no longer exist just because it won't be in its same form, that this theme can no longer exist.
- 39:07Nicole Laino: These are human themes.
- 39:09Nicole Laino: And again, it's like if we tie it with the other things that were just talking about a few minutes ago, with compassion, with recognizing that we are all connected, how can we say that we shouldn't be taking care of each other and that maybe it can look different and if you're disenchanted with the way that things are, maybe you do something about it.
- 39:28Nicole Laino: I think there's a space for something new in these places rather than thinking that, well, this will just go away.
- 39:36Nicole Laino: And I think that's almost sort of like we're seeing that in this industry a lot.
- 39:40Nicole Laino: Just in the coaching industry and the online industry, people talking about, you know, that the landscape is changing, that there are no buyers.
- 39:48Nicole Laino: We hear these things all the time.
- 39:50Nicole Laino: But for some reason, whenever it's happening to us and it feels hard, it feels more true, like that the doomsday is really here.
- 39:56Nicole Laino: And, you know, what we've learned if you've been in this for a while, is that things just.
- 40:02Nicole Laino: They shift and they change and we get to make them what we want them to be.
- 40:06Nicole Laino: If you really are like 41, that first gate that start codon, it's a dreamer.
- 40:12Nicole Laino: It is a gate of daring to dream.
- 40:15Nicole Laino: The audacity of hope is.
- 40:18Nicole Laino: Is really what it's about.
- 40:20Nicole Laino: And, you know, so can you have that audacity of hope and also be looking at this saying that it doesn't have to be, I can be me, just like you were saying about that.
- 40:29Nicole Laino: Aries to Libra.
- 40:30Nicole Laino: I won't abandon myself for the sake of you, but I also will honor the individuality and truth of you as well, that both are valid and both are needed.
- 40:43Nicole Laino: I think there's a lot of these themes that are just sort of echoing throughout these months and certainly throughout the month of January.
- 40:52Christina Luna: Yes.
- 40:53Christina Luna: And so many things were triggered that I've collected from conversations I've been having.
- 40:58Christina Luna: I recently had a conversation with one of my teachers, and she says she's been in this summit where they're talking about these four different intelligences.
- 41:09Christina Luna: And she said that they said there's a cosmic intelligence, there's a natural Intelligence.
- 41:15Christina Luna: And their conversation was geared around human intelligence and artificial intelligence.
- 41:21Christina Luna: And as I was listening to her, I was like, I don't really think it should be called human intelligence and artificial intelligence, what I think it should be called, because I'm that kind of person.
- 41:31Christina Luna: We should have cosmic intelligence, natural intelligence, creative intelligence, and reflective intelligence.
- 41:38Christina Luna: And I believe that as we cross over into this new year that you're talking about, we are redefining our role in those intelligences.
- 41:48Christina Luna: We're redefining where we stand in the axis.
- 41:51Christina Luna: Are we in the center, where we're honoring the cosmic intelligence, we're honoring the natural intelligence, we're honoring creative intelligence and reflective intelligence.
- 42:00Christina Luna: And which quadrant do we hang out with more?
- 42:03Christina Luna: Are we kind of in the center?
- 42:05Christina Luna: Do we favor one side or the other?
- 42:08Christina Luna: To be honest, I'm sure we're made up of.
- 42:10Christina Luna: We're made up of equal parts of all of it.
- 42:12Christina Luna: But are we overvaluing any of it and undervaluing any of it?
- 42:17Christina Luna: So, literally, this coincides with the very last week of December, from my perspective, that we get to define our role in the human cosmic, natural, reflective team of society, of the world, of our life.
- 42:32Christina Luna: And I know it sounds very grandiose to be thinking of, like, where we stand in these quadrants of these intelligences, but I think that's the power and birthright we have all the time.
- 42:42Christina Luna: I mean, every manifestation, coach, every human design, like Core Truth, every astrological mission is to find the center where all parts are valued and held as sacred, including all parts of ourselves.
- 42:59Nicole Laino: And so, yeah, so I think, as you're saying that the vision I'm getting in my head is almost like, what in human design, the way that we look at, there's the personality crystal, the design crystal, these different parts of you, and then there's obviously the cosmos and the whole thing that the G center, the center of identity, love, right in the center, which, you know, most of us would know as the heart in the Hindu chakra system, but we have, you know, we have the two pieces of it.
- 43:29Nicole Laino: The G center for human design is said to be the part that binds them all together into what becomes.
- 43:35Nicole Laino: It's the thing that makes you an individual and takes all of the pieces, where we're all part of the same things together.
- 43:43Nicole Laino: And the way that it comes together is through your heart.
- 43:47Nicole Laino: That's the part that's how you individuate as a unique human being.
- 43:53Nicole Laino: And as you were saying that and as you were talking about that, you know, we're all kind of like, maybe favoring one of these consciousnesses or, you know, maybe intrigued by one and playing with one more.
- 44:05Nicole Laino: That we are the ones, that it's how we sit in the middle that determines our outward expression.
- 44:12Nicole Laino: And if you think about it, like, I'm getting a little a bit esoteric here, but that you are the expression of your experiences with all of these consciousnesses anyway, that is what you are.
- 44:22Nicole Laino: You are just a filter for the way that consciousness is expressing itself through you and through your heart and the way that you walk out in the world, whether it's the way that you interact with people or the way that you are teaching or the way that you are showing up.
- 44:40Nicole Laino: And ultimately your purpose is lived out by how pure that expression is to what it.
- 44:45Nicole Laino: What it truly is versus being affected by the outside world so much, maybe.
- 44:52Nicole Laino: So that was just what was coming through for me.
- 44:53Nicole Laino: I just kept seeing as you were talking about, I was getting these, like, four points and like you being in the center and how you're interpreting and filtering all of that intelligence is just coming through us as individuals.
- 45:06Nicole Laino: We're all experiencing it.
- 45:09Christina Luna: Yeah.
- 45:09Christina Luna: And to bring it down to Earth for people, since we brought up natal charts already, and I'm sure everyone's attuned to their human design chart as well.
- 45:18Christina Luna: If we look at the part of our chart where Aquarius is and we look at the polarity points between Aquarius and Leo, that's going to be the part of our life where we find the power center, the G center, the place where we.
- 45:35Christina Luna: Because Leo rules the heart and Aquarius essentially rules how our heart integrates all the parts, weaves in with the entire matrix of everything.
- 45:45Christina Luna: And so when all these planets in these last couple of weeks of January move into Aquarius, we're going to look at the Aquarius part of our chart.
- 45:54Christina Luna: For instance, I have that in my second house.
- 45:56Christina Luna: And we're gonna look at how it fruits.
- 45:59Christina Luna: We come to our fruiting heart center in the Leo part of our chart.
- 46:03Christina Luna: And that rulesthat's my eighth house of intimacy and transformation.
- 46:08Christina Luna: So for anyone who's looking at this in their own chart, what does that house mean for you?
- 46:13Christina Luna: How is the energy showing up?
- 46:15Christina Luna: How's it increasing in frequency?
- 46:18Christina Luna: Did I talk to you about how I transformed my wealth over the last year?
- 46:23Christina Luna: I moved from having $45,000 in debt at the beginning of the year all the way to.
- 46:30Christina Luna: I'm going to be paying my truck off in a couple of months and I will have zero debt.
- 46:33Christina Luna: That is a second House situation.
- 46:36Christina Luna: So the vibration of my finances has gone through a transformation.
- 46:41Christina Luna: And when the finances go through a transformation and my needs and my resources, it ultimately gives me presence in my heart through intimate relationship.
- 46:50Christina Luna: My intimate relationships will experience that center location, which means I can have deeper intimate relationships with everyone, with my clients, with life, with my loved ones, lover, et cetera, my daughter's father.
- 47:06Christina Luna: You know, everything gets to be stable in the heart and connected in the heart because I've gone through this resource transformation, which.
- 47:15Christina Luna: How would that be related?
- 47:16Christina Luna: But it's a vibration.
- 47:17Nicole Laino: Yeah.
- 47:18Nicole Laino: No, I love that.
- 47:19Nicole Laino: Yeah.
- 47:19Nicole Laino: And you mentioned that at the start of the call, you were saying about how you went from 45,000 in debt to, you know, now just your truck payment, which that just, I think for everybody listening, like, the way that feels in your nervous system, that sense of like is palpable.
- 47:36Nicole Laino: That's a real thing.
- 47:38Nicole Laino: How you relate to the debt that you have, you can also have debt and feel fine about it.
- 47:43Nicole Laino: It's about how you feel, what your relationship is to it.
- 47:47Nicole Laino: But you obviously made it a priority this year where you said, this is something that I no longer desire to hold, so I'm going to get rid of it.
- 47:55Christina Luna: I decided I wanted to operate in right relationship with resource, and I wanted to create different laws and rules within the material world and.
- 48:06Christina Luna: And that stood on tangible things.
- 48:10Christina Luna: So I've been operating only cash.
- 48:12Christina Luna: Everything all Christmas was cash.
- 48:14Christina Luna: Like, there's been no credit at all, which is fine.
- 48:17Christina Luna: I don't have anything against credit.
- 48:18Christina Luna: I just was using it as my laboratory for being in right relationship with resource.
- 48:24Christina Luna: So now I have all of this resource.
- 48:27Christina Luna: My personal, like, resource tank is full, and I can make decisions from that tank for however I wish.
- 48:35Christina Luna: And I don't have to borrow on future effort or future energy in order to make moves in the now.
- 48:43Christina Luna: And that changes the way I'm in the now, the way I'm present in the center of that now, which changes my relationship to my clients and my loved ones.
- 48:52Christina Luna: And, you know, I'm not borrowing from a future engagement.
- 48:55Christina Luna: So anyways, the only reason I'm bringing all this up is because we're going to actually see how the Aquarian part of our chart impacts our ability to be in our heart.
- 49:06Christina Luna: You talked about the heart being the center, the G spot.
- 49:09Christina Luna: We're going to notice that the Aquarian part of our world is what actually would pull us into one quadrant or another and out of that heart center.
- 49:19Christina Luna: And with Pluto in that place, it's drawing this line saying Draw your lines with these things, with these ways you are pulled, with these ways you are overvaluing, undervaluing, judging, not a part of wherever you think that you belong, you don't belong.
- 49:35Christina Luna: Those Aquarian things are affecting the G center, are affecting how you sit comfortably in your G center.
- 49:42Nicole Laino: So for somebody looking to follow what you just said, they're going to go to their chart, they're going to see where Aquarius sits in their chart, just like they did with Aries earlier.
- 49:52Nicole Laino: They're going to go find what house is Aquarius in, and they're going to look at that, and then they're going to look at what the opposite is.
- 50:00Nicole Laino: And that is going to be where the work needs to be done or where it will show up.
- 50:07Christina Luna: So the opposite of Aquarius is Leoleo rules the heart, the G center, I call it the present thing that makes life worth living.
- 50:15Christina Luna: So Aquarius things are going to be the things that kind of pull you out of that or make you feel you don't belong or help you to feel you belong.
- 50:24Christina Luna: It's the vibration of belonging to.
- 50:27Christina Luna: It's the vibration of likeness or not likeness.
- 50:31Christina Luna: And so the Aquarian part of our chart is going to reveal the materials that would pull us out of our heart center.
- 50:38Nicole Laino: Okay.
- 50:39Christina Luna: And for me, it had to do with my relationship to resource.
- 50:42Christina Luna: My resource.
- 50:43Christina Luna: The amount of energy I have to be with you intimately, the amount of money I have to spend with you, the amount of like, confidence I have in my ability to focus on our relationship and not like my work, for instance, or something like that.
- 50:59Nicole Laino: Does it matter what house system people use?
- 51:02Christina Luna: My opinion on that is, listen, as a super charged Virgo, I definitely believe there was like a right or wrong when it came to house systems.
- 51:12Christina Luna: When I approached this.
- 51:13Christina Luna: Yeah, place I've elegantly landed is choose the one that feels best to you and always stick to it.
- 51:19Nicole Laino: Okay.
- 51:19Christina Luna: It's a divination tool.
- 51:21Christina Luna: It's like having a favorite tarot deck.
- 51:23Christina Luna: It's like having with anything.
- 51:25Christina Luna: Choose the one you resonate with most and stick to it.
- 51:28Christina Luna: And you'll have an accuracy with your divination and accuracy with the service that you do.
- 51:34Christina Luna: Because you're sticking to one system.
- 51:36Christina Luna: It doesn't matter what system you choose.
- 51:38Christina Luna: All systems are fingers pointing at the moon.
- 51:41Christina Luna: So choose a finger that you want to study really well and know that it's actually pointing at the moon that every single finger is pointing at.
- 51:48Christina Luna: Every system points to the same moon.
- 51:51Christina Luna: It's just a matter of how well you know, the back of your hand.
- 51:54Nicole Laino: And by them learning it and choosing, are they just looking at their chart through the different houses and seeing which one feels the most resonant?
- 52:05Nicole Laino: Is that how they're choosing or are they reading up on it to see how it's calculated?
- 52:10Nicole Laino: Sorry, I'm going off on a tangent, but we've been talking about the houses a lot here and I know that if someone goes to run their chart, it's going to ask them whole sign placidus.
- 52:19Nicole Laino: Like there's.
- 52:20Christina Luna: I will tell you, I use the Placidus house system.
- 52:24Christina Luna: So it's a whole wormhole.
- 52:25Christina Luna: If you're very new to astrology, go ahead and just use whole house.
- 52:29Christina Luna: It gets more and more specific to you the more detail you get into it.
- 52:35Christina Luna: But if you're just going for broad strokes, start with whole house.
- 52:38Nicole Laino: And I learned on whole sign.
- 52:41Nicole Laino: That was what I was taught.
- 52:44Nicole Laino: And.
- 52:44Nicole Laino: But I know my readings with you are placidus, and so that kind of got me to explore.
- 52:50Nicole Laino: And yeah, so it's.
- 52:52Christina Luna: The closer you get to specific and perfect, the more range that there's so much like I'm in a wormhole now where I'm looking at draconian charts versus tropical charts.
- 53:06Christina Luna: Like, it never stops.
- 53:08Christina Luna: It will never stop.
- 53:10Christina Luna: So just choose the one you want to lean on if this is what your jam is.
- 53:14Christina Luna: And when it starts to feel deeper, you'll go deeper and you'll fine tune it even more and you'll get into the nitty gritty of the micro millimeters of detail.
- 53:25Christina Luna: And that's the fun part.
- 53:26Christina Luna: If you're into that kind of thing.
- 53:28Nicole Laino: There'S always something to kind of like dig into.
- 53:30Nicole Laino: And I think that it's.
- 53:31Nicole Laino: You know, obviously we love this.
- 53:33Nicole Laino: This is sort of our world.
- 53:35Nicole Laino: But is there anything else you wanted to mention to everybody before we wrap the January episode?
- 53:41Nicole Laino: By the way, you had said the last week of December.
- 53:43Nicole Laino: You meant January when were talking a couple minutes ago.
- 53:46Nicole Laino: Right.
- 53:46Nicole Laino: I'm just throwing that at in case someone thinks that.
- 53:49Nicole Laino: Oh, did we go back to December?
- 53:50Nicole Laino: No, she meant the last week of January.
- 53:52Nicole Laino: I. I heard what you were saying.
- 53:53Nicole Laino: I'm like, she's talking about this, but I wanted to call it out.
- 53:55Nicole Laino: Is there any last words for everybody for January?
- 54:01Christina Luna: The last words are trust that when the vibration hits right, it'll automatically change the way you feel, the way you think and the way you act.
- 54:11Christina Luna: You don't have to force it.
- 54:12Nicole Laino: Yeah.
- 54:13Christina Luna: Just trust that there's a vibration that wants to guide Us.
- 54:16Christina Luna: It's like a compass inside of your nervous system.
- 54:19Christina Luna: Follow the compass and it will lead you exactly to all the things you need to be at for yourself.
- 54:25Nicole Laino: Yeah, for me, this is always true.
- 54:28Nicole Laino: But it's even more true this year that January is about.
- 54:33Nicole Laino: I think that you learn a lot from the lessons of the root center.
- 54:35Nicole Laino: Because we have a lot of root center energy in so many of the planets.
- 54:40Nicole Laino: We have it showing up that the lesson of the root center is always that creativity, the burst of we've all felt creative energy just show up at one point where it felt so pure and so beautiful and really just felt like were ignited and initiated into something that was so meant for us.
- 55:02Nicole Laino: The lesson of the root center is to know that doesn't happen every day.
- 55:06Nicole Laino: And when we try to make it happen every day, we actually keep it from happening when it's meant to that we close off to the miracle.
- 55:15Nicole Laino: And I think that January is a month of dancing and learning to move with and trust divine timing and moving with the rhythms of the universe.
- 55:27Nicole Laino: And it's being ready.
- 55:29Nicole Laino: You know, being ready means that you weren't busy doing something else that had nothing to do with like there might be a little bit more waiting in January than we think.
- 55:38Nicole Laino: There's probably going to be bursts of creativity, of productivity, of action.
- 55:45Nicole Laino: And we might really feel that where they might be very powerful.
- 55:48Nicole Laino: In fact, I think they will be.
- 55:50Nicole Laino: But also to take those moments of in between to say that this is the universe giving me a moment to get ready for the next one so that I can be even more ready and more able.
- 56:03Nicole Laino: And in my light, when that comes in, when that lightning strikes, because it is.
- 56:09Nicole Laino: There's going to be these lightning strike moments, I think, throughout the month.
- 56:14Nicole Laino: And if you're distracted, you won't be ready for them and then you'll miss it.
- 56:20Nicole Laino: And also, just don't forget, go back and listen to the Woodsnake episode that I did in December on, you know, how to close out 2025 properly.
- 56:30Nicole Laino: Like, we're still doing this all through January.
- 56:32Nicole Laino: We are still closing out the year of the Snake until the Lunar new year on February 17th.
- 56:39Nicole Laino: So don't forget to keep doing that work of shedding, of releasing, of really coming into relationship with these.
- 56:48Nicole Laino: What do you have to let go of?
- 56:49Nicole Laino: That should be a question that everybody's asking themselves throughout the month of January and into, you know, like the beginning of February.
- 56:56Nicole Laino: I have a workshop coming up on the G Center.
- 57:00Nicole Laino: It's on the G Center on Shifting your identity.
- 57:02Nicole Laino: Because there is a new identity that we are always being called to.
- 57:07Nicole Laino: And the G Center is this beautiful portal into who we are.
