Hello and welcome to Unshakeable with Human Design, everybody. I’m your host, Nicole Laino. And it is our monthly transit episode, this one for November. So my good friend, Miss Christina Luna, is with me as always. Hi, Christina.

Christina Luna: Hello.

Nicole Laino: Welcome back. So happy you’re here. And we did.

Christina Luna: really excited about this. 

Nicole Laino: I was telling you the only little conversation that we had before hopping on was that so many people reached out to me to say how much they loved last month’s episode.

So we were talking about, and I was reflecting on, I went and I listened to it and I was like, what did we do differently? Because it was such a strong reaction. People were like, this month’s episode was amazing. And I think it was just that we just hit record. We didn’t talk at all really before.

We were like, let’s save it all for the show and we just had a conversation and we reflected on our stuff. So we’re going to try it again. We’re going to do that again. We’re just hitting record and see what happens. Right? We always come prepared. We have our stuff. We know what’s coming.

But as far as the conversation is concerned, I do like to talk about these episodes make me reflect on the transits, on myself, on my relationship to things so much. That I like to talk about that when we start out. I want to keep that because I was feeling October. I felt the fear and I know what’s going on and I know what’s coming.

And I was feeling it to the point where I had to remind myself and I had to fall back on a lot of my tools and just to give everybody like my own reflection on this. So I know what’s happening. I know that we’re in the month of fear. I know that’s the low frequency. And then I start to get scared about things.

I start to get anxious. I start to get this feeling of it’s not going to be okay. Now we have a lot of things going on. We have the U S election, which nobody enjoys this time of year. I don’t think anybody is like, yay, election season. Cause it’s very stressful. Just the collective energy is a lot at this time of year.

And this time of the four years but for me, what was coming up was even though I was reminding myself of what was going on, I was so aware of how taken in by this fear energy I was, like I was just noticing it. That full moon knocked me on my ass. It was Aries full moon, right? This past month. Yeah

I was like, this is powerful. I felt that thing move me and I don’t often get like moved like that. That moon pushed me. And on the other side of it, I absolutely felt better. But boy, did I feel it coming and I felt that low frequency through October where I was like, oh my god.

And the way that I reflected on it, the way that I worked with it was I went into every fear, like I had to deal with what was present so that I could actually move it out. I didn’t just say, it’s not real, it’s not real, it’s just the transits. That was like to get my mind quiet, to go like, it is the transits, but let me invite myself into this conversation energetically that’s going on inside of me. And what are the fears that I’m feeling? What is making me feel this way? Can I dive into some of those feelings? Because it’s an opportunity. It’s not just fantasy. It’s an opportunity, or at least this way, the way I treated it.

It was an opportunity for me to dive into these things that were, like what was triggering me? What was I feeling? What irrational things were being kicked up? Cause that’s an opportunity to see what’s going on under the surface that we don’t always get. That was at least how I dealt with it. And I think you had a different experience this month, but what was your experience with October?

Christina Luna: I did have a really different experience, everything that you’re sharing is so par for the course for Scorpio season. And typically that would have been what I was experiencing as well, but I learned something so incredibly valuable this month that I think my entire astrological career I have been trying to learn. To preface this I’ll tell you that the last time we met we talked about how Libra season is like pulling an arrow of Intention back and that all through Libra season the intention we’re pulling back has to do with mental curiosity to try and find the trust that we could feel to co create with another person.

So we’re pulling this arrow back, and of course we’re navigating all the fears around co creation. All the fears around the variability of being in relationship with either people or things that you can’t control. There’s this moment in Virgo season where we’re so proud of how autonomous and independent and whole and complete we are.

And then, we enter into Libra season, and it’s like, alright. Now let’s see what taking that whole person into a relationship looks like. So we talked about how, okay, now we’re going to vet it. We’re going to check our beliefs. We’re going to see if we can navigate two belief systems. We’re going to see how that flows with we talked about vulnerability.

Are we going to turn our vulnerable knife to cut someone else? When we feel pain, we talked about grieving. We talked about grieving things that have died or come to pass that are no longer going with us into the next cycle. And then finally, we’re getting to this last week. We’re heading into November, right?

And this is so nostalgic. We’ve got these nostalgic feelings and these nostalgic feelings are designed to show us where the really deep hurts lie. So, all that being said, I knew that going in, it was an opportunity to shoot my arrow wherever I really wanted to. There’s this simultaneous sensation I have in life where, yes, these transits impact me.

Yes, they influence my energy, but where’s my free will in all of this? Am I always, over and over, gonna be spinning through this wheel, and continuously grabbed and influenced by the freaking astrological weather? This has been a question that I’ve been trying to solve my entire career, and I think I just experienced the solution to that.

And this is what I, this is what happened.

I met someone at the beginning of this month. I shot, I had an experience, I watched a show. I don’t know, everyone’s talking about that show, Nobody Wants This on Netflix.

Nicole Laino: I just started it.

Christina Luna: I begrudgingly watched it because honestly, I was not in a space to try and like meet people. I was just like, well, everyone’s talking about it.

Let’s see how emotionally mature these people are. Like I was, I definitely went into it with a little bit of snarky skepticism.

Nicole Laino: It’s super cute.

Christina Luna: It’s super cute and there were a couple of key scenes that shook something inside of me that had already been starting to shake at the eclipse. We had an eclipse on like the 3rd of October and on the 3rd of October I was like, I’m gonna write a new book.

My, my arrow of intention is, I’m gonna write a new book, and I’m gonna, I’m gonna put in there that the character just has the most beautiful experiences. She’s gonna be cooking in the kitchen, and she’s gonna be listening to music with this person, and they’re gonna cook together and flirt with each other in the kitchen.

It was just a simple scene that I kinda laid out on a piece of paper on the Eclipse. Then I watched the show, got on a dating app, and met someone. It was like bam. The reason I’m sharing this, which I don’t usually share such personal details about my life, is because the level of yes, of all of those, like literally the cooking in the kitchen happened, literally like, all the things I was crafting for this character I’ve started experiencing and it popped me completely clean out of the mid range bandwidth that I usually experience life through.

Christina Luna: I’ve discovered, this is the core thing I discovered, when I am in a semi neutral state where I’m not having too high highs and not too low lows, that neutral bandwidth has me agreeing and going into the rhythm of the cultural field, and the cultural field is influenced by these rhythms, by the transits, by the moons.

It’s a way that our society has learned to move in rhythm with each other. We just agree to these weather patterns with each other, and who knows what’s creating what. Is it the less light in the northern hemisphere that’s creating Scorpio season in our biological systems as we feel the light going away and our circadian rhythms are being disrupted?

Is it that? I’m not sure, but as we get in rhythm with each other, we seem to, as a tribe, go through these things together and we feel connected to each other through that. But there are extenuating circumstances that completely pull us out of that bandwidth. And I think that it can go both ways, right? We can get really sick, or we can lose someone, or have an accident.

Something could happen that could pull us out of the collective, and we feel out of step, or out of rhythm with them. We feel like every day is grief, every day is mourning, every day is pain, and even when people are celebrating as a collective, we don’t feel that. We’re out of it. And the other side is true as well.

We could meet someone we never knew before. It could feel like we had a quantum timeline shift or something. And all of a sudden, all that life is cooking and dancing to beautiful music in the kitchen with someone new. All of a sudden, life is morning text messages and looking forward to the next time you see someone.

And all of a sudden, the transits and the full moons. They have no impact whatsoever, because we’re in this soul field that’s just so much fountain energy, so much dopamine, so many hormones, right? And it pulls us out, so even though I communicated with a lot of people, and every single person I talked to was in step with these rhythms, I got pulled out of the game this month.

And it showed me that as humans we do have free will still. We are not ultimately completely at cause. Is it at cause or we’re not completely grabbed by some of these influences. We don’t have to be grabbed by the elections. We don’t have to be grabbed by the socially acceptable narrative or even whatever we were grabbed by through our rituals and patterns our entire life, we don’t have to be grabbed by the past of our experiences either.

And with enough energy, everything looks different. And so, my October was very different and I’m grateful that I learned that because, man, I’ve always wondered, like, gosh, it seems that, every single year, I experience the exact same things. What’s my gift in this? What’s my contribution to how I experience life?

Nicole Laino: So a couple of things are coming through for me. The visual I keep getting is when you’re talking about swimming in like this neutral zone, like the mid range where you’re in the collective stream. That’s to me like just every day and then the two images I get are like when you’re in the low beneath it where there’s just it’s like drowning, you know You’re like getting pulled under the water.

You’re actually underneath where there’s air and Then the other visual I get in my head is Like when you’re in a plane and there’s weather and they’re like, we’re just gonna go fly above the weather and they get above those clouds, they break through, and they’re so high up that you would have no idea in that plane that there was a storm going on underneath.

So then the next question that comes to my mind is can you cultivate above the clouds state. So you had a big wow in your life, where you had something else that was taking up your energy, that was becoming, what you focus on grows, right? Like what we talk about all the time, what you focus on grows, where attention goes energy flows.

So you have your focus on this beautiful moment with this man and or person. I don’t know if it’s a man but you have this beautiful moment. You’re having this beautiful relationship. There’s like sparks flying. And I’m with my husband 20 years. It’s been a long time since I have had that start of a relationship thing.

But I do remember how all encompassing that is like you when you’re in it, you’re so sucked into it, but that just makes me think like can we cultivate that? I definitely have moments of it. I carve out time every day for visioning and there are some times where I vision so hard and so damn well.

That I am in such gratitude for what I envisioned that can carry me for a while. And then there are some days, perfectly honest, can’t get there. Like, I’m doing the same things, I’m thinking about the same stuff. I feel like I’m running the same script, but it’s not there that day.

But I had a day yesterday where I was in tears. Gratitude tears, because it felt so real. It felt so possible. It felt like it already happened. I was just saying, thank you. And I meant it. So that was where my head went when you were talking about that. Can we cultivate that state?

Or is it just we’ve got to meet somebody. It’s got to go off. These things have to, or is it that we create those moments that with the intention of writing out what you wanted, did you create it?

Christina Luna: So you mentioned a key word over and over. Even though you were trying to talk about the initial catalyst, you were saying same. So there are two human needs. There’s like a hierarchy of human needs, and there are two human needs that are at odds with each other.

One of them is the need for certainty and stability and security, and the other one is the need for uncertainty, novelty, newness, and change. Now, we have a preference, most of us have a preference, for security, because it’s one of the survival needs. It’s a way that we need our nervous system to feel safe, and to a degree, that need developed at such a young age, and it seems that throughout our life, we’re seeking to create that continuously.

And that need is exactly at odds with the need for uncertainty and novelty. And honestly, novelty, uncertainty, change, newness is the thing that really opens your soul up, that really shakes the energy, it opens the bandwidth, it increases your potential to feel even more than you were feeling before.

Because your brain says, there’s something new in the system, what else do I not know? Like, this person came out of nowhere, I wasn’t even expecting this person. What else do I not know? Oh my gosh, is there music I never heard of? Is there, are there movies I’ve never seen before? Is it possible there’s a bunch of new things that have never occurred to me?

And because I have all this new, and I’m open to all this new, and I’m being rewarded for all this new, more new is showing up, so there’s a sustained level of high energy based on the [00:15:00] novelty of, everything that broke up the stability and certainty that I was experiencing beforehand. So I think the special recipe is, what’s exciting to true?

It was very risky. Okay going on a dating app was not something I expected to be doing at 45 years old. This is not that was not something that was part of my previous normal and

Nicole Laino: You’ve never been on a dating app before?

Christina Luna: No

Nicole Laino: This is your first dating app, like initiation.

Christina Luna: I’ve been in long term, well, there was a tiny period when I was like, very upset during the pandemic and I dabbled my foot in and immediately jumped out because I was not actually ready.

Yeah, I was not actually ready to date and I don’t count that because it wasn’t, I didn’t even give it a sporting try. Like,

Nicole Laino: But you got in there, so this is like your first real go at a dating app and you’re in I’m out of collective consciousness level happy and sparks are flying. You, my friend, are a rare bird. In the world, because that’s not normally, I’ve never been on a dating app because I’ve been with my husband for so long.

But everybody I know plenty of women who are probably cursing you a little bit right now. They’re like, happy for you and also just like, Ooh, that’s not my experience with dating apps. But, I think you’re speaking to the energy that you were in going into it, you got very clear energetically with what you want to create.

Christina Luna: I’m also in a unique period of time. My only goal was to attract experiences that felt exciting to me. I don’t have a lot of weight to that. I have children already. I’ve already been married, and I wasn’t expecting anything, which is another part of allowing novelty.

I wasn’t trying to enter it in to try and get more security, I was entering into it to experience novelty. Which leaves it open to all wow, it’s a kind of place I found myself so I’m also an Enneagram 5, and so I do things for research, and honestly, I had to look at the upside of suddenly finding myself no longer partnered with my ex partner.

I had to, like, find the silver lining. And so one of the silver lining projects was, I’m going to embark on intimacy. And intimacy without the constraints and the containers of long term relationship. Because that’s what I get to do as a single person. So That alone was a novel thing. And I was going to do it for posterity.

I’m doing it for research. I’ll do it for the people. I was even going to seek out different Zodiac signs and that was part of my selection process. I was like, let’s start with Capricorns. I had like over a thousand people. I was like scrolling through, like looking at profiles.

I was very discerning and I was specifically looking for capricorn men that I thought I could enjoy having time with. 

Nicole Laino: Why did you pick Capricorn? Was it like spin the wheel Capricorn or was it like, I’m a Virgo, Capricorns and Virgos are good together, or some sort of other astrological like voodoo magic that you were pairing yourself with a Capricorn.

Christina Luna: So I’ve done a lot of compatibility readings with people, and I know that every single person’s compatible with everyone for something. Compatibility, the way that we’ve perceived it before, is a complete myth. Everyone’s compatible with everyone for something, for the cultivation of some kind of experience.

And so, I looked at my chart, I was crafting a character. I actually, initially, was like, I’m gonna write a new book, I want this character to have these qualities. I listed, I was like, it would be nice if they had Sag rising, it’d be nice if they were an Earth sign.

So I did some mind analysis of if I was writing a story of a character that I would like to spend time with, what are the qualities that would be the most wonderful, easeful, etc. So I just did that and then I was like, well, the earth is huge. There’s a ton of people.

I’ll just see if I can find someone that feels like that to me. And literally as I’m scrolling, I could feel some of these people would be a really fun time, but not the experiences I wanted. Some of these people look like really nice people, but not the experience I’m looking for. I could feel eventualities and it was clear in my system that those were not the eventualities that I wanted. 

I only flipped on three people, and it just so happened that one of them was actually also into my whole situation too. We’re way getting into details I usually don’t even talk about on these

Nicole Laino: I don’t mean to take you down your whole personal route. You open the door and I’m asking questions. I did not mean to like, be like, let’s talk about your personal life now,

Christina Luna: No. I could keep talking about it. Mostly I’m like, okay, wait, hold on. I could talk about this for hours right now because it’s such a energized space for me. But the main reason I even brought it up is because it taught me something about the role of novelty. And I think that novelty and newness and change and experiencing things we’ve never experienced before, that is a frequency shifter.

That is what pulls us out of the consensus. That is what the secret ingredient is. And if we acknowledge there are probably things that we have desires to do that would create a high level of instability in our security. So we don’t do it.

Nicole Laino: yeah, absolutely.

Christina Luna: Just, we were too responsible. We’re too smart to do it. We’re too risk averse.

So we leave a lot of energy on the table by not following through with those inspired desires.

Nicole Laino: I’m going to go full meta. sorry, I didn’t mean to interrupt you, I’m thinking about like, it’s, we look at kids and kids are so untouched by a lot of this other stuff. My son can’t sleep sometimes during the full moon and things like that, but very untouched by the world, by this cosmic weather that we’re reporting on every month.

But everything’s new to them. They’re constantly in that state of newness. They don’t hold onto anything, literally. He’s not even seven yet, so like his brain isn’t holding onto things the way ours does either. But we could go down a whole rabbit hole here and we’ve touched on it.

Nicole Laino: We’ve dipped our toes into the rabbit hole, but it’s such an interesting way to look at it. Do we have a way of pulling ourselves in or out of this flow?

Christina Luna: That’s right. And to be fair, also, it’s, I only get to see this person like once a week. It’s not like I’ve sustained a very high level of energy all month. But it’s not just because I see this person, occasionally, it’s because I accept that along with there’s a person I never knew existed, there’s also all of these other things I never knew existed.

And so my way of being has changed. My way of seeing the world has changed, which has magnetized and invited so many more new experiences that are not even related to this person. It’s like you get one little catalyst. Maybe this conversation can be a catalyst for people listening. Maybe 

Nicole Laino: I wanna also just touch on the fact that you’re a manifesting generator. When you’re satisfied, when you are in the energy of satisfaction, of feeling good, then you will attract, I mean that, that’s true for all of us, but you’re, as a generator, when you’re in that state of being satisfied, detached from the outcome, cause that’s the other thing that I was hearing, you’re like I’m not attached to where this is going, or what’s gonna happen, are we gonna have babies, is this gonna be the answer to all of my prayers, I’m just in it for the fun of it, for the experience of it, which is truth of the experiential process.

It’s like you do it because it’s fun. You do it to have the experience of this human experience here, and not think about, will this get me what I want? It’s not logical. Like you let go of the logical, and you’ve become detached from that, and that’s allowed you to be more satisfied, and by being more satisfied, you’re just getting all these other things that It’s, the catalyst, it’s the thing, but it’s the way that the thing makes you feel.

And it’s the way that you doing it and being in this space is generating your aura and your energy and pulling things to you. Just to give people that illustration of what you’re talking about through a human design perspective is, you’re so damn satisfied, nothing can touch you. You just keep attracting more and more good things when you’re in that space.

I always say, good things happen when generators have fun. Like, when you’re in a good state and you’re just loving life, you’re lit up. Right? And that’s the thing that people can have. And people can, and you, and it, it’s cumulative. The more satisfied I am, the more satisfied I get, and the more fun I get, and the more better things I get.

And that’s what we’re talking about. You’re, this is, hello, you’re magnetic right now. You’re magnetizing more of what you want and less of what you don’t want. By being in this particular state right now.

Christina Luna: I imagine every single human design has a recipe for this. 

Nicole Laino: It’s a different one. But that’s the generator model right there. Everybody can get there, it’s just what gets you there. Projectors it’s a little, it’s different. They’re being asked for their wisdom. They’re being recognized. And by being recognized, they get recognized more. And once they start getting recognized, I always say it’s annoying.

Because they like, they don’t have to do anything anymore. People are just like, you should talk to this person, and you should do this, and you should do this. And they just get lifted up. Like, the hand of God just starts lifting them up, but a lot of times they have a hard time letting go and believing that doing what is right for them is really right for them because they have, they’re 20 percent of the world.

They don’t have the same recipe that 70 percent of the world does. And So they have to believe in not the way I’ve been told. And that takes practice, trust, and, a whole lot of letting go. A lot of surrender is, on those other sides there’s more surrender to it. Yeah, no, everybody has a recipe for that.We should get it

Christina Luna: This is why we talk about these keys. This is why the keys are so important because we can talk about these transits, and we will talk about the transits because they’re still relevant. And I can totally understand how understanding your recipe for what generates or projects or however your recipe is, understanding what that is, It is the key to overriding whatever these things that grab us as whatever the cultural field is trying to run us through.

It can completely override all of that and then you actually get into true energetic creator mode. It’s jailbreaking you from the system that we can’t seem to understand how to navigate out of. But I think that if the system is a school, and learning your recipe is your graduate program, then stepping above the system would be going into the creator jailbreak mode where you get to just live your life.

And you’re free from the game. You’re free from the constraints. Not that you ever want to escape life, but perhaps it would be nice to know how to put on creator mode on this game.

Nicole Laino: No I completely agree. That’s what the game is, right? That’s what I teach with human design, that’s what I try to get through, is that if you can let go of how you think it has to be done, which is the game, and you do it your way, you’ll find in the beginning it’s little pockets of it.

And we all forget because we’re conditioned to play the game. We’re conditioned to get sucked in. We’re conditioned to be part of a certain frequency of the collective. I have to remind myself sometimes, and I do this for a living, but I have to remind myself that when I get into those moments of, frustration or feeling like I’m caught up in the game, fall back on the tools and go back to do the thing that doesn’t make sense.

Sometimes it’s just go have fun is honestly like for generators. That’s the recipe usually is go have a good time. I don’t care if it makes sense to you or not. It will break the cycle that you are in. You will start to attract different things. And I always get the idea that I’ve been trying to like work so hard for, or the thing I’ve been trying so hard to get done.

That I just can’t bring myself to do. If I go do something that genuinely feels joyful in that moment, instead, the idea comes, it’s better than I thought. My phone rings, a sale comes in. It’s crazy. And, but it can be difficult for people to trust that. Cause it doesn’t make sense.

Christina Luna: With all of these transits, like I’m looking at my calendar right now, I can see all of the things that are laying out in front of us in November. And what I see is They’re in each one of these, there’s a way that we can make it feel more powerful to us where we can be scared and we can give it power and we could be like, oh, my gosh, that’s going to be so blah, right?

We could totally get into that, which people do that with mercury retrograde. People do that. We have a Mars. Pluto opposition. Astrologers are already like, Mars, Pluto, right? that is available. And when we do that and we give it more power, it has more power over us. And I think that always, when I’ve looked at these transits, I’ve always seen and there’s a gate, there’s a gate here.

There’s an opening here. There’s an opportunity here for us to, Really see how we have power Co creating this with the transit. That’s why I always include questions. There’s a question you can ask yourself right now That’s gonna open up more energy for you because I think secretly I’ve also always known that this does this is not the thing that’s powerful our meaning maker is the thing that’s powerful and we get to climb the ladder of meaning out of being influenced or overpowered by certain things in our lives.And so

Nicole Laino: I think we ended the last episode with that note where I said my favorite teaching from A Course in Miracles is nothing has any meaning except the meaning that I put on it. And it applies to everything. Everything.

Christina Luna: And I think we’re a lot of us, it’s a big responsibility to make up our meanings. And it sometimes is easier to let people we trust to help speak over our lives or help speak over the meanings that we’re making. Sometimes our meanings are painful and they, we do get lost in the woods sometimes and the pain feels more real than the fact that we can create a new reality.

There’s just this bridge that we eventually cross. And honestly, all astrologically right now. Pluto is in the very last degree of Capricorn. By the 19th, it moves into Aquarius for good. And I’ve talked about how the power change when this happens for the next 20 years is whatever the frequency inside of us is, that’s going to be the power.

So Capricorn was saying what you’ve done in the past, the labels you’ve had, the accomplishments, the mastery the importance, all of those things are what have power. So people that have those things have power. If you don’t have those things, you don’t have power. You better work really hard to get those things so you do have power.

So you can position yourself in a powerful, grounded, earthly state. So the thing that’s changing is actually none of that stuff matters if the frequency underneath in the bones. isn’t powerful. And no matter what the frequency is, that is going to be what powerfully maneuvers you through life and attracts things to you.

So we’re in the final stage, the final month of our lifetime to unpack, clear out, release ourselves from certain frequencies that have drawn us into patterns, attracted circumstances to our lives, kept us in a medium level bandwidth. We’re making those choices right now, and there are, we’re, the week we’re in right now, it’s the Six of Cups.

This could feel like a nostalgic week. This could feel like we’re looking back on all the Six of Cups. All the things that have come to pass, all the things that have completed. There could be this bittersweet nostalgia reminiscing kind of feeling and it could also it’s like a last look, a last look.

I have a vision of, My ex husband in the kitchen. I remember one of our last looks in the kitchen where we were, we really knew this was happening. And I like gave my wedding ring across the counter. And there was that moment in that, wow, so hard and sad, but also, there’s just nothing like that.

There’s nothing like that feeling when you still have an open heart and you’re transitioning into a new space. And that’s what this week’s about. Can we’re, the opportunity is, can we have an open heart while we transition into this new space? Gratitude, you said yesterday. Gratitude for everything that is currently. And we have transits that are helping to facilitate that sweet, dreamy sensation. We’ve got we’ve got some Mercury, the big news about November is that Mercury is going to be moving into Sagittarius. Sagittarius. And the reason why that’s exciting big news is because we’re getting in touch with our sensation of excitement.

Mercury in Sagittarius is going to inform us where the juicy, passionate novelty actually could be. And if we allow ourselves to move in that direction, we’ll be moving on to the new. We can have our last looks and then immediately move on. Follow the passion into something that feels better aligned to our new frequency and then we have Mars opposite Pluto right after on the third and that is like a that’s a line in the sand That says wow, this really is over.

Not all it’s not all sometimes you know something’s over because you’re in the new reality and you don’t act even though you grieve the old reality You don’t want to go back to the old reality You’re in the new one and you’re really knowing that it’s over because the new one is in and you wouldn’t go back to the old

Nicole Laino: You’ve really turned the page, and I think we have all been there at some point where it’s like, we’ve been in a relationship where maybe you’ve broken up and you’re, I can remember that I had an old boyfriend that, we were, we broke up a lot. And, you always knew, it’s not really done.

And then until the last time and it’s like, oh, it’s done now. I’ve, I’m not that person in that relationship anymore. I’m no longer there. So I totally get that. So that’s the point that we’re at. So starting off the month, we’re at that turn the page moment of closing that door on Capricorn on and moving into Aquarius season, right?

That’s, is that kind of what you’re drawing the line with?

Christina Luna: yeah deeper what’s deeper is that Pluto is heading us into Aquarius Mars, well, Mars is like the way we behave from our patterning. It’s like the outcome that we have from the emotions that we feel. So, if we feel these certain emotions, we act a certain way. Mars is how we act. So, we’re going to know that we’re no longer going to act the way we did before.

And that’s Mars opposite Pluto. Mars is moving, has been moving through Cancer this whole time, being so vulnerable. Really feeling how we’ve acted from our vulnerable spaces. Whether that was to protect ourselves, or to hurt others, or to create space, or to open up. And we get this moment on the third, where right before Mars moves into Leo, It goes opposing to Pluto, which is Pluto is packing up all the past.

So yes, we turn the page and then we get extra fire. We’ve got Sagittarius fire. We’ve got Leo fire, Venus is in Sagittarius as well. So even though we’re in a watery month with the sun. We are letting our passion bring extra novelty, extra newness. We’re letting our passion drive some of the transformation that Scorpio season ultimately delivers to us.

Nicole Laino: Yeah I see that too with the start of the month. You were saying that’s around like the third, fourth, fifth of the month is that kind of push. Yeah, when we’re moving into that, like then we’re getting into like gate one, which is, it’s, that’s, it’s the turn of the page moment we get into the third quarter, the fourth quarter.

We have the different kind of overarching themes of the year and of the purposes, like what is your purpose led by? And the fourth quarter is about transformation. It’s the time where we change. It is where we turn the page. It is where we shift into all the whole year we’ve gone through, the whole wheel, and it’s all been about the seeds of the ideas, the implementation of the structure behind them, the sharing of them, the building of relationships.

It’s the opening of our heart and then it’s like, well now who are we? And it kicks off by shifting us into gate one, which is the gate of uniqueness. Who am I? And it’s about expressing yourself in a new and unique way and just saying this is a freak flag gate for sure. This is one that says I am me and I love me for the way that I am.

And you’re just, it’s being an expression of. You as a pure individual. It is the most, and, but it, there’s an activeness to that. I think that goes well with the Mars activation here, which is the Mars and Pluto is that, or not in Pluto, excuse me but the Mars activation here where gate one, yes, it’s about being unique, but being unique is an active, Activity.

It is not passive. I’m just me and I’m just back here. No, it’s about showing the world. It’s about being that person actively out in the world and letting that be something that is reflected all the time. So that I look at like as kicking off the season to like when I see that gate I’m like, oh, it’s time to really step in.

To who you are, to let go of anything that you think needs to fit in, because Gate One does not like to fit in, it does not need to, it has no use for that. It is above and beyond all other things an individual. And it loves itself for its individual nature and it deserves to be seen and sees itself that way.

So it has no qualms about people seeing its quirks. In fact, that’s what makes it special. So, we have two other interesting things, that feels like it jives with what you’re talking about. Yeah,

Christina Luna: We have a lot of North Node aspects this month too, and the North Node is always asking us to evolve, and it’s been asking us to evolve through Aries, which is so much that energy you’re talking about, that uniqueness, the special qualities that we all have incarnated to express.

And so, this is definitely the month for that, where our transformation doesn’t necessarily come from the Like trauma and whoa, like all of the heaviness that we usually associate with. Like Scorpio stuff, right? No, let the transformation be led by your unique desires and passions for what you really want to experience.

Nicole Laino: Yeah and then the rest of the month, we move through from a human design perspective. What’s interesting about this month is we have two sun gates, so the 11th through the 16th we have gate 43. through the 16th When we have the sun, we also get that earth pairing of the 23rd gate, which is, we have two of these instances where they form a channel in the human design chart.

So something that’s interesting to note is that from the 11th to the 16th, we’ll be in gate 43, which is all about insights, which is all about like aha moments, like big sparks of Oh my God, I get it now. Maybe something that you’ve been mulling over something that you have been like, maybe all year you’ve been waiting for this thing to crystallize and say Oh, That’s it.

It was that at, it was that the whole time. That might be that moment that it drops in. I feel like it’s like a pinball that’s like making its way down and finally falls through the hole. That’s what Gate 43 is about. But it pairs with Gate 23, which makes the channel of structuring, which connects the ajna to the throat center.

And what that means, from like a practical standpoint, is that everybody will have a defined mind and a defined throat. for that transit. So you may find that you are able to speak those insights a little bit easier, that you might be able to put things out there. Those ideas also might be a little crazy and a little offbeat and not everybody may get them.

But that’s the lesson is that you might just have something that people don’t understand yet. It does not make it wrong. It makes it unique.

Christina Luna: I’m, so happy you’re talking about that because Mercury is having a lot of aspects around the time that you’re talking about and Mercury is the part of us that speaks it. And with Mercury in Sagittarius, Mer Sagittarius Mercury wants to shout from the rooftops everything that it’s learned, everything that it believes in, and even the metaphor here is Sagittarius.

Sagittarius. In Libra season, you choose your scuba diving partner. In Scorpio season, you dive into the deep sea caves. And if you’ve ever seen Abyss, you know how you go, Virgil goes down at the trench and then finds the alien ship down there? And then the alien ship surfaces? Mercury in Sagittarius is the moment the alien ship surfaces at the end, and everything in the world is different.

And this might be crazy, but it’s true! It’s true! I’ve been down in the caves! I found this! And so, yeah, it’s a little bit extra. It’s a little bit unhinged, but it doesn’t mean it’s less valid or less true. It just means that we’re not putting our voice in the mid range anymore. We’re saying something new.

We’re expressing something novel and fresh that’s never been expressed before. And that, it does sound a little bit crazy at first, because it’s never, it’s not the consensus. And that’s what the opportunity is this year, especially with all the Sagittarius changeover that happens from the 17th to the 23rd.

Yeah, go ahead and put your frequency flag out in the air.

Nicole Laino: Yeah. And then moving on through the month we have from the 16th to the 21st from human design, we’re in gate 14, which that to me, That’s like the fuel behind, you talked about the arrow being pulled back in Libra season, in Gate 14 to me is, that’s the fuel that’s like the propulsion of the arrow, that is the push, that is, at least from the human design perspective, it says what’s the gas, we’re going to put gas in one car, what’s the car?

And it’s, it is the gas, it is the fuel, it is the thing that says, it’s this, it’s now, it’s time, it’s go. And it’s this, I feel like there’s so much, it’s calling us to trust that what feels right to us, we will have energy for. Cause it’s called the Gate of Capacity. And I think it’s a difficult one for people to understand.

Because there is this sense that will I be able to take it on? Will I be able to have it all? Will I be able to really see this through? And the answer is, if you feel like you really want it, and it really feels like a yes for you, the capacity is there. That’s the call that Gate 14 is making to us.

And then when we go to the 22nd to the 27th, we have another one of those situations where we have a channel that’s made in the transit, so I want to make sure that I call it out. It’s gate 34, it’s the sun gate that we’re in. Which is the gate of power. It is about personal power. Again, this is a big bold month.

It’s Scorpio season, so a big bold month and moving in, going into Sagittarius. The 34th gate is in the sacral center. It is power, pure, unadulterated, just like I want it, I’m going for it, power. But it connects to gate 20, which forms a channel, the channel of charisma, connecting the sacral, to the throat, everyone born during that time will be a manifesting generator.

So anybody who has a birthday from the 22nd to the 27th that’s born this year will be a mani gen automatically because they will have a defined sacral and a defined throat and that channel going straight there. So, during that time, this also is a time of that channel is notorious for being really busy.

So you might find that you have a lot of energy that wants to be expressed, and wants to be expressed now, like yesterday. It’s just let’s go! And can you just make sure that you’re going on the things that really feel true to you? That building on the month, it’s expressing your uniqueness, you have these innovative ideas, you are saying, I want it, I trust that I have capacity for it, and then you let yourself go.

and go toward those things, rather than necessarily what logically makes the most sense, or second guessing. That’s, I, Gate 34 calls us to just say, if it feels right, again, we have the capacity from Gate 14 that’s saying, we can handle it, and Gate 34 is saying, just give me the just give me the high sign, coach, I’m ready.

I’m ready to move. And that’s what kind of pushes us into into December where we go into we start off with the gate of details which is okay we have the power now, it’s like now let’s get focused. So much momentum there I think and so much possibility. I think November is fun. I always I’m a Scorpio moon and rising.

I dig this time. I always feel very excited during this time.

Christina Luna: Everything you said, that was such sound and good things to remember because that’s right before Thanksgiving. We have Thanksgiving on the 28th this year, and leading up to Thanksgiving, we’re gonna have Saturn moving direct on the 15th. We’re gonna have Pluto moving direct on the 19th.

Sun moving into Sagittarius on the 21st. So, as we’re amping up energy for the Thanksgiving, Black Friday, entering into the holiday season we also are going to have a Mercury retrograde starting on the 25th. So, what you said about feeling the power, feeling the energy, feeling the capacity, and that it might not be rational, Even more true this year than any years before, because there will be a lot of forward momentum, excitement, energy to be in your frequency and follow your bliss and say yes.

And Mercury retrograde is going to say, and probably it won’t make that much sense.

Nicole Laino: Trust.

Christina Luna: Don’t worry about the details so much. Don’t get in your head too much about this. Let the energy lead it. You might not know until the exact moment you need to know, and that’s fine. It’s a vibration. It’s a frequency. It’s like we’re getting this entry into Pluto and Aquarius with the Sagittarius frequency because Sagittarius is mutable fire.

It’s fire that’s true in one moment and then true about something else in the next moment. It’s like, let the fire be the guiding principle and don’t worry so much about having it to have to make sense.

Nicole Laino: I love it. I feel like we have covered a lot in this episode. I think, I’m excited for November. I’m like I feel I feel the shift already pulling us into this new phase, into this new energy. Hoping that, around that, like, Third, fourth, fifth, that we’re moving in a great direction that page feels good to us.

And yeah, I’m looking forward to it. You’re riding in your, like, I’m out of the collective energy. Everything is so great place. I hope it stays that way for, I hope you’re like swimming in that space and you come next month with like, even more tips on like, I, this is how I’ve managed to stay here.

Christina Luna: I’ve already been thinking about that. Not that I’m attached to saying, like, in the state of bliss, even though it’s really hard to not be attached to it.

Nicole Laino: What a fun experiment, though.

Christina Luna: It’s all for research, y’all. I’m gonna go first into the bliss experiment to see what it looks like to remain in a state of constant bliss.

Nicole Laino: Oh, I like that. The bliss experiment. I love it. Sign me up. I’ll be part of the bliss experiment. I’ll dive into this with you. Do you have anything to say? We said a lot. Do you have anything to leave our beautiful listeners with? Ooh.
