Oh my god you have wedding rings. Can you see that? Tell me you guys if this is bright enough if you're able to see this because I just don't know that my camera is really working but you have wedding rings. Okay so obviously somebody's coming in wants to marry you. Oh my goodness. Okay obviously this is union wedding, getting married, soul connection, eternal love, everlasting promise coming in. Okay it is dark. All right one sec. I have another trick. Does that help? Is that a little bit better? I had to switch my light out so sorry about that. We'll make do. It's just these cards. They're so dark. So somebody's coming in. You're gonna get a love offer proposal. There's a soul connection. Maybe you already have with someone. Eternal love, everlasting promise. Oh my goodness. And ascending okay. Somebody's coming to their senses. Transcending obstacles, learning, expansion, a new phase, preparing for union. You've got somebody here Virgo who is, I don't know who this person is. I don't know if it was somebody whoever we were talking about yesterday but you've got someone who's coming in here. They're like bing bang boom. They're ready. They're ready. They're ready for commitment, union, that soul connection, everything. And I feel like whoever you were connecting with maybe in the past or whoever's coming in that you might be meeting somebody new is you know it could be in the past they weren't willing to commit to at some point in their life but this person's coming in like ready. Do you know what I mean? So you might already know them or this could be somebody new that you're talking to or you meet and they're just basically like giving off this energy of oh no I'm you know I'm ready to get married. I'm ready to settle down. I'm looking for my divine soul partner, my life person. Okay I fixed the light, right? So that's very beautiful. I love this. You know what, before I get started let me get some romance angels. This is a far cry from yesterday's reading, huh? Okay hold on let's take a look. Let's just see what's going on here because this is something. This is something. Thank you, Kath. This is definitely something. What is this romance angels? Okay trust. This situation is calling for you to have faith. You can trust whatever's coming in here for you Virgo. Whatever this offer is, this cup is arrows. I mean this is like, this feels strongly like some big changes coming in super fast, super, super quick. Calling in your soulmate. Okay, so some of you have been manifesting this in your heart, in your mind.  Someone who is comes in that's in alignment. This person might be calling you. There's a phone call coming in. I really like, I feel like, sorry, I just feel like somebody's ready to settle down, really ready to commit fully here. I don't know who this person is. Why don't we take a look and see if we can pick up their Chinese side, their Chinese zodiac, huh? Let's take a look and see. I love these cards. This is my new deck. Let's see, who is Virgo's person? Okay, you're the tiger. This person may have been born in the year of the tiger. Okay, year of the ox. This person might have zodiac sign ox. The goat, year of the goat. I think we got that yesterday. All right, we're gonna just pull right from the center and just be mindful. If I don't pull the Chinese sign that your person is, this could be somebody new. All right. Okay, oh, year of the pig. We had that yesterday as well. So there's a pig, link, link, and a monkey. Okay, so if you don't know their signs, go ahead and look it up. Just do a quick Google. Okay, just Google Chinese zodiac in your person's birth year and that should show up. The Chinese calendar starts in February, so anyone who was born in that year from February to February. So if they're born like say, say 1960, in January of 1960, they're gonna be the year prior Chinese zodiac. Okay, so just keep those in mind there.  And this is also the year of the tiger. So meow, something going on here. There's definitely an energy of love is coming in. All right, let me take a look here. Let's see what's going on with this person. Why and what is going on that this person is coming in like fully ready? Just it's like such a turnabout. It's a surprise. You know, like I feel like some of you are gonna get like a call out of the blue from somebody. It'll be just a complete surprise to you that they are like they want to meet up and why they want to meet up because they want to talk about your union. They're ready to ascend this with you to overcome whatever obstacles there are. Like it's like a sit down and talk and let's talk about the obstacles and let's get past them. Okay, there's definitely a new phase coming in here with this person. All right, and like I said, for some of you this could be somebody new coming in for you. Okay, who's just ready. All right, let's take a look. What is going on with this person here? Oh my gosh, the hangman pysian energy. So that makes sense. Again, this is like seeing things completely different. This person has had some kind of like came to Jesus, came to Jesus. The hangman is always for me like kind of like Jesus on the cross.  It's like, oh my gosh, waking up to something here, whether they believe or not, it's irrelevant, but it's the hangman energy is just seeing things with like a whole new state of frame of mind. Just really being in this energy like it's a spiritual awakening is what I feel like is happening here. So what does that mean? It's kind of like, it's kind of like, you know, it's almost like an epiphany kind of thing and realizing what's really important. You know, this is how this person's energy is. Like waking up and seeing what's really important. Maybe in the past, this person took for granted you if it's a past person or just other people in their life in the past. And they just maybe were flitting about from one relationship to the next, never settling down, really never committing or anything like that. Maybe this person is getting for some of you at an age now where they're getting closer to their golden years or they're just in this position where it's like, wow, I'm done with that old those old ways. I'm done with living my life the way I was living my life in the past. All right, which is very beautiful. It almost feels like maybe the person was a player in the past. I don't feel like a narcissist. I just feel like it was someone who immature and they've had some growth, some self growth. Because the universe will do it, so to speak. It's something to do with, you know, coming to or coming to or coming of age. It's wisdom. Okay. It's wisdom. It's all about wisdom. Okay. Yeah, this person's really in this position of really taking a look at their life here. Excuse me. Seven of Pentacles energy is really just like taking a step back. Excuse me. They were hesitant. They really think in this through or have been thinking this through about their life. Like, where do I want to put my energy? Where do I want to invest? And it feels like with you, this is what they've been thinking. If you haven't been in communication with this person, it's because they've been pulling back and really just trying to sort things out in their heart and their head, trying to get them to be in alignment. And really kind of looking at what they've built, all the growth they've had in their life and what they've built in their life thus far. And now it's kind of like taking an inventory. Like, am I really happy? Am I really satisfied with how things have turned out? Is this been enough for me? Do I want more? Do I need more? Where am I at? You know, it's kind of like taking stock is what I feel with this card. Just looking at the roots that they've planted and the growth that they've had. And you can see there's one Pentacle down here still. So it kind of feels like it's like, okay, I've had this growth now. It's time for me to start enjoying the fruits of my labor here. And I feel like this person is really taking a look at the next phase or stage in their life. And it feels like what I'm seeing here is that this includes you and this includes you guys starting the second, the second phase of your lives together. Okay. Like I said, keep in mind, now I keep saying it, this could be somebody new. Okay. For those of you who are just coming in to the chat, I did look 10 of sorts. This is surrendering. Oh my goodness. This is such a contrast from yesterday's reading. So this is 100% surrendering. Defeated has hit rock bottom and is ready to really like make these changes in their life. Okay. As far as relationship and commitment goes, this feels to me like someone who has lived their life kind of non-committal or just really had it somewhere in their head that they weren't, it wasn't, so if you knew this person in the past, it's not that there's anything wrong with you. I feel like this person might just have been non-committal.  And some of you might just be like, uh-uh, it's done. I'm out. And for others of you, you know, we're going to take a look at you, but others of you are just kind of like have been patient and waiting for this person to have some kind of wake-up call. Some of you haven't been able to date other people. And I know because I've heard this, because this one person, you just know this is your person.  I feel like this person is just defeated in life. Okay, Queen of Swords. Okay, so this could be Libra Gemini or Aquarius. So this person is showing up here tremendously truthful and like coming in or coming forward very honest knows exactly what they want. All right, so it's like they're very coming in very precise about what they're looking for and what they want to have with you. All right, so it's going to be, for some reason, I feel like it's a surprise to you. It comes out of the blue. It's almost like it could be a gift for some of you. Okay, let me just see what else is showing up here. I saw the Emperor. I did while I was shuffling and then I just, it kept it like burned into my brain. And here's the Emperor. Okay, Aries Leo said, or Aries, excuse me, or Mars Energy could be Scorpia. This person is coming in. So if you're into males, this person is showing up as an Emperor. If you're into females, you're showing up as a Queen of Swords. Okay, so if you're into males, this person is showing up like really taking the lead, really coming forward with like Alpha leading, leading, pursuing, being, commanding, making plans, knowing what they want. This could be someone who is a father or as a parent. Okay, they could be older or they could just be someone who's like a business owner or someone that owns companies. So they're just in the military, perhaps, or in law enforcement, like higher ranking. It just feels like a higher ranking kind of energy. Even if they're not in that, they come in in like with higher ranking type of energy. Like I know what I want. This person does not come in immature or has power, ego issues or anything like that. Okay. So the Queen of Swords comes in very precise and very direct. Now let me just get a clarifying card here for the hangman. What is this change happening with this person? Like this is the Emperor energy, whether it's male or female, this person comes in very dependable. That's why this card is here. This situation is calling for you to have faith. You can trust this. This person, the way they come in, you can trust this. It just feels like, you know, when somebody hits a rock bottom type of energy, you know, it's like complete defeat and surrender and whatever it takes now to get back up. Okay. Let me just take a look here. Why is the hangman here? Okay. Yeah, that's our moment. Point blank period. Their whole world came crashing down. For some, you know, this could be somebody who gets sober or they're getting clean, you know, or they recently did and they've taken, you know, now they have a strong hold on their life, but maybe they become very spiritual. I just feel like that a tower moment hits them here. Like they just have complete ruin in their life.  All you do is pray. It's like, all you feel like you have left is just to pray, to be lifted out of a difficult situation. Even if it's somebody who never prayed a day in their life, you know, this person, whatever they were going through, whatever they hit rock bottom with, whatever destruction or ruin that has come to them, because I do feel like this is what's happening to this person. They have like got down on their knees. They went before the Lord, I don't know, praying to the angels, they're going to Allah, whatever it is, this person is having like a true spiritual awakening. And it's like, I don't know how this relates to you. If you know this person, maybe you brought the tower down on this person and it hit him. Could have been similar.    Let me just take a look here at the tower. I feel like this person has lost everything. They've lost everything.  I don't know what it was, but it feels like this person, whatever this tower moment, whatever happened here has had this person have a complete half a long cast. He has had this person a complete shift and change in mindset, their perspective, everything's different. Okay. Huh. Well, isn't that interesting? The eight of swords in the reverse. I was asking what brought this tower down. This person has been liberated or freed from something they have released. Okay. A new hope. It might have just been nothing. Well, first of all, he just gave me this message. They said, whatever brought this tower energy in, I feel like a lot of it had to do with this person realizes they can't play the victim card anymore. And now they got to actually take some action, you know, so they might have spent their whole life doing this poor me thing. And now they're coming out of it, which is releasing themselves from that card. It doesn't work. Whatever they were doing in the past doesn't work. There's also escape here. This person has escaped extreme disaster. And it feels like they're living to tell about it. And it has woken them up. So I don't know, maybe it's a war thing or something could be local, could be global. I don't know what it is, but it's like a wake up call like this person knows either when they meet you or if you already know them that they got to snatch you up now. I don't know. It's kind of like I'm feeling like they might have been near death or a fee or it feels like that like their life flashes before their eyes. And now they're like taking stock like, Oh my gosh, I don't know what hit this person. Okay, maybe they had a surgery and something has happened to them where they are like awake now. They come out of the surgery. Maybe they saw Jesus or their ancestors came to visit them. They were lifted up off the table and they came back to life a near death experience. They know what they want.  But this also includes you. Okay. This also includes you. This is a new phase. This person, I feel like the ghost of Christmas pass came to visit them and showed them their whole life past, present, and future. Really? That's what I feel like is going on here. Show me this emperor. So now it's like a position of taking the lead here. You know, I'm there's a couple questions. Okay, yeah, fight love the devil. This person walks with the devil is always at their side and they they don't work for the devil. It's just the devil's always around them and they're aware of it. It's almost as if they can see now how temptation and obsessions and addictions and things like that have taken over their life is a strong message. I want to ask though how this person feels about you, what they see in you, what they will be seeing in you. This is somebody new, how they feel about you. But I just want to take a look at this devil card. Look at this seven of swords in the reverse. What did I say? The devil walks with this person. They see how the devil has led them into cheating and theft and lying and trying to get away with things being dishonest, betrayals or running away all the time. And I feel like they are aware and that there's a devil on their shoulder and then there's an angel on the other one.  And now they're listening to the angel and really taking changing things, seeing things differently. And they might have always just taken the stance of like playing the victim because they weren't strong enough in their past to stand up against temptations and the gluttony and all the ways and the tricks that the games that the devil plays. But let's take a look. I want to ask how this person feels about you, Merville, what they see in you, how they feel about you. And then we're going to take a look at you and what your energy is. All right. How does this person feel? So let me just call off the signs really quick. We have Capricorn, Aries, Libra, Gemini, Aquarius, Pisces and Scorpio. Okay. And if that resonates for you, great. If not, don't worry. It doesn't mean it's not your person. All right. Let's see. How does this person? Oh, gosh. So the Hierophonics, so Taurus Energy. So this person looks at you and they feel that you're very, you're orderly. Isn't that attractive? You're so orderly. You're so very organized, but they see that you do things by the book and you're very humble. They like that about you. They like that you're very spiritual or maybe even religious.  You attend some kind of service or something, some of you. But see, you're, you, I feel Virgo, you lead, you have a light. You lead the way. You have a spiritual light and you walk a good path, Virgo. And I feel like that's the main, one of the big things that this person's very attracted to because I feel like whomever they may have got lost in in the past or just whenever at any point, even maybe before you met them or why you were involved with them, those were distractions. Those were people that were sent to them from that Satan-y devil right there for temptation, lust, sex, things like that. And this person sees you as pure.  I don't mean that. It's just that you're faithful. And I don't know if they ever saw that before or ever recognized that before. When you meet them, you will find that this is kind of, this is how they feel about you. Like they sense it.  Okay.  You're, you conform. So you're humble.  And I feel like this is something that they really like about you. Okay. Oh, look at those 10 of pentacles.   So they like your stability. That 10 of pentacles, that feels like a Capricorn card. So maybe there's Capricorn in your chart somewhere.  So they really like that. Let me see what else. Maybe they like that you're going to get an inheritance or something. So the nine of wands is here. And they like that you have boundaries that you put your boundaries up when necessary.  That's what the nine of wands energy nine is like completion here. So they like that you question things or that you question people.  And I feel like that mirror mirroring energy is there. This person likes that you are that wounded warrior yourself in a sense of like, you can take a hit. But you know, you keep getting back up, not a hit by them. I don't mean that.  Yeah, you've got some, you've got some scars, you've got some more wounds, so to speak.  Okay. And I feel like this person sees you as a very strong, independent person. And they like that very much. It's interesting. These are all character traits that's coming up here. These are character traits that this person really is impressed with about you, which is interesting. Let me see. Okay.  You can also take it, but you have no problem dishing it out. Okay. So you know, you're popular, maybe just with certain people you have some of you have a really amazing sense of humor. And I feel like this person likes that about you. But your confidence is very attractive. Confidence is very, very attractive to this person. What else? Where are the cup cards? My goodness. There's no cup cards here. It's very interesting. And that's very telling because it feels to me that this person is looking at your character traits, not your sex, not your, not your lust.  This is not based on sex. This is not based on emotions. This is based on can this person be, can we be a power couple? Does this person have what it takes to be with me and do I have what it takes to be with them? Okay. So this is all character, you know what I mean?  You know what I'm saying? They could be a liar, you know, or they could, they could be super gorgeous, you know, but a coward at the same time. So this person is looking at this stuff about you. They like your passion and your drive. Also, with the Knight of Swords, they also like that you are very quick witted in your responses or when you talk. Okay. They're very attracted to that.  You seem to have like your head together. Um, Ashley, the devil is everywhere. Don't think ever that you can just close your eyes and meet someone who doesn't have, everybody's got the devil on their shoulder. So don't live in La La Land about that. Right. Unless you're saying your devil, the devil is a Capricorn. That's your person, but the devil's everywhere. You've got to be on guard. There's evil afoot all the time. Right. So this person enjoys very much. The way you handle the changes in your life. Okay. So if you go through some changes or you have some situations that I feel like happen in your life that are difficult to handle here, like the nine of wands, you solve it pretty quickly. You, they're very attracted to that. Like you're not a whiner.  You just go after. You're like, okay, let me, let me take care of this.  I'm not like, I feel like they feel like you could take up arms. Like you could take the lead. You could charge. Okay. And you can take care of self. All right. Let me say, okay. Yeah.  You don't put this, they like that you are undecided about them. You might be, you might be undecided. If you knew this person, you might have been at times like, I'm not sure. I'm not sure. And I kind of brought a challenge to them.  But that's within you. But they don't see that. They see that you're successful and that you have, you bring a lot of joy to people. And they really do. So I don't know if this is something you were with before and they weren't seeing it before. It's because they were so focused on self. But like I said, if you haven't listened to the whole reading from the start, you should go back because this person's having like a huge change. Here you go. So our first cup card, page of cups. This person thinks about, all right, this does feel like someone you haven't been connecting with, who's coming back in. And for others, it's somebody new. Okay. Because this page of cups is like a new love. This person, I feel like there's going to be, like I said, some type of surprise messages or phone calls or something, a little bit of flirtation, asking you out. Like I said, an invitation or a meeting, that page of cups energy is kind of like very sweet, like some sweetness starting.  Seriously. And I say that with a capital F. And it just feels to me like they're really looking at you for who you are, like the core of who you are.  And they see like, who you really are, not, it's not about you getting down on your knees, ladies and gents. That doesn't that, I mean, it plays a role, but that's not the core of it, because that can be had anywhere, right?  They like that you like hosting parties. They like that you like collecting things, or that you, you like, they like that you have a specific type of wine or drink. Okay. So some of you might have like, you have specifics, specifics about you, that is, that's what makes you unique. And whenever your specifics are, that they are aware of, or they will find out about, these are things that are unique to you, that is just draws them, gosh, it's like this person's really looking at you, we're really, really looking at you. They just said they like that you enjoy a certain type of seafood. I don't even know what that means. I mean, maybe it's not something that a lot of people eat, or a lot of people like, they're just telling me. And I'm also some of you collect shells or seashells. Okay. Two, you collect some kind of shells.  I don't know who that's for. It's weird. Oh, and they also like your red shoes. If you've worn red shoes, or you will be wearing red shoes, or something about your red shoes are very unique. Maybe your name's Dorothy. Okay.  So it feels like they like that you're not needy or dependent. Okay. They like that you can kind of like take a break from them and go after your own wishes and dreams. You know, so Wow, this reading is so profound. It's really profound. It feels like this person is really looking at or really sees you. Now, like I said, I'm going to reiterate it again. This could be a past person who has finally ascended. And for others, this could be somebody new. Okay. So it could be both the end of the day. It's up to you how you want to handle whatever comes your way. Okay. Just because I see the messages doesn't necessarily mean that you have to do what I tell you because I'm not telling you what to do. I'm just giving you some messages of things that I'm seeing and what's going on with this person. Do you want me to look at you and see where you're coming from? Are you interested in that? Because I can do a few cards with that.  And what's all of your amazing traits, your character traits, which are so much more important than anything. All right, let's take a look at your energy. All right. So everybody wants that. Let's see where you're at. Okay. Should I get another deck? Let me get another deck. Hold on. All right. I'm going to try. I'm going to pull from here because I want to see what's going on. Let's start off fresh. Okay. Well, a whole bunch of cards just flipped out. So let's start here. You've got the tower. You've got heartbreak.   Right? Things just kind of fell apart at some point in your life or with somebody. Okay. And there was heartbreak involved in that. There was. For some of you, it could have been a third party. For others, it just could have been. Third party doesn't have to mean person. It could be a place or a thing. An interference. Okay. And whatever the interference might have been that caused heartbreak for you, things fell apart. But look, instead of either this is where you are now or this is where you're going. But instead of really just, like I said, this is what I'm saying.  And you did just that. You got into your empress energy. See, male or female, it doesn't matter. The emperor is here. And so is the empress. Right? So you, this is what this person likes about you, that they see themselves in you, that they're new self, right? That they've missed the whole time. And you have always been that empress. Okay. You have always been someone who stayed like steady as a rock. When I look at the tent of pentacles, I always feel like this is like brick and mortar.  And you, the whole time were like, I am not staying in a straw house. I am not staying in a stick house or anything like that. I'm in a solid hardcore brick house.  And you just right back up on the horse, or you will be doing that and getting into your empress energy, right? So you took your, you took your hits, Virgo, and you used whatever was thrown at you or whatever's destroyed, whatever fell down those bricks or blocks or whatever, and you just rebuilt with them. Okay. So your energy is really, really good.     Okay. So it feels to me like you just did really well for yourself. You stayed strong and you fought back. And that's where you are now. Okay.  Virgo, you have such a warrior spirit. It's incredible. And I feel like whatever that like somebody here is so attracted to your character and that energy, and it's not like I said, you can take up arms, Virgo, you can take up arms and you can get it done.  And that has not set you back. And then you feel like it has, well, as part of the process, it's okay to feel that way. But what you do with it is completely up to you, you know, and if you choose to take your setbacks and use them as comebacks, then you're way ahead of many, many people, right, way ahead. And I see that here with you. Look at you. You got the Knight of Cups here. So you're, you're holding that hope for your Prince or Princess Charming, not one who's a manipulator or anything like that. You know you deserve that. Because you're sitting here like this, you know, you're sitting here, the Empress and the Emperor, whatever male or female energy, the Queen of all Queens, the King of all kings, you can't get any higher than this. You know, the only ones higher than the Empress and the High Priestess, nobody, because they run the show, right? So let me get a clarifying card here. Let's see what this tower energy was. What happened here with this tower? What was this, this crumbling, this, because I feel like you're in a new phase of your life here.  That's it.  You just one shot, you're down, one shot, you're out. It's crazy. A little Mike Tyson. I don't know. I don't even know who the fighters are today. I don't really watch once in a while, but you're just like you go into the ring. I always say that too. Look, I always say this is like the, the boxer who gets back into his corner after, after a round, gets back into his corner, sits back, gets cleaned up after getting hit. You see how he's got those bandages on him. And then he sits in the corner, gets his pep talk, and then he looks at the other player. He's got to get back in the ring again. Now he's got a new play. He's got a new game. He's figured it out. He knows what to do. And he just, you cannot be defeated. You are, is that a word, undefeatable and irreplaceable. All right, let me see what's going on here with the tower. And I also feel like this person sees that in you or if it's somebody new will see that. Persephone. Are you my like twin flame? Seriously? Are you Persephone? Because we have the same birthday, the same rising sign, the same Chinese sign and you like Bruce Lee and you have a grandchild. We have to talk because this is freaking me out. Okay, so all right, what's set you back here? Queen of Cups. Could have been a water sign. Destroyed something in you or destroyed something. You got your heart hurt. You know, you were very nurturing and so the Queen of Cups is a very supportive nurturing energy. Okay, very, very tolerant. And I think for a lot of you, you over tolerated too much from something or someone. Okay. And you got, you just broke down. You just broke down. Some of you just said, you know, I've run out. My well is dry and empty. I got to go refurbish. You got your heart broken. Let me see what else. Oh, I mean the King of Wands. Queen of Cups and the King of Wands. Okay. Something fell apart between you and another person. All right, something fell apart. Just a tower energy between two people or in regards to two people, some type of connection. Justice. Interesting. Libra energy. Aries of Eosecheteria, Cancer Scorpio Pisces. Maybe there was a legal issue or something happened for some of you. Some kind of truth came out. That's what happened, especially for some of you. Some kind of truth came out. You did a lot. You had to make a decision. Some of you had to make a decision.  I really do. I see that energy here. Let me see what the Empress says. High Priestess. Oh, you went within. Some of you did. Or some of you will be. Somebody went within and just rebuilt yourselves in silence. Okay. Some of you, I feel like I don't know if you went into silent mode or if you went like no contact with somebody or some people, maybe a mother, but you, whatever happened, could have been with a past relationship or a lover or family members or friends that just broke something down. I feel like you just kind of pulled your energy back, right?  Okay. The Empress energy always feels like self love, self nurturing, self caring and caring for children and family, people that are in support of you.  They're just giving me this. Okay. They're giving me this scene. All right. So I'm going to give you this scene. This, because I don't know why sometimes spirit shows me scenes in movies or music. If you saw, give me a thumbs up if you saw the movie grease, right? Sure. Everybody did. There was a scene in Greece where Sandy things weren't working out with Danny. He, like, dissed her, right? Danny was like, what are you talking about, babe? We're not together. And, and she was so hurt by the way he treated her, right? You guys know what I'm talking about. So what did she do? She went to Frenchy in quiet and she said to Frenchy, I need your help. Right. So in silence without letting anybody know, she went and rebuilt herself. Do you remember that? That is kind of what I feel like. This is what you're doing. You've rebuilt yourself. So maybe you went to the gym or maybe you like did some aesthetic changes. Maybe you made some spiritual changes. Some of you might have went into like some silent secret counseling or you just did some stuff and you didn't let anybody know for self-evolvement, you know? And, and this is the outcome here. Looking so beautiful and so handsome and so strong and so powerful and you are either retracting somebody from your past or somebody new or both. Okay. Because you know what?  You're true Virgo energy. True Virgo energy is Adios and Mefer.  That's true Virgo energy. Virgo doesn't complain. Virgo does an exact revenge because Virgo is too good for that and Virgo stands up and says, you know what?  That's fine.  If you're letting somebody seeing you sweat, they know that they're pushing your buttons and they know that they're getting to you and you've got to stop giving people access to your power storage unit, right?  So I'm like so proud of you. All right, let's say I'm going to pull a couple of cards from my Moompi deck and see what's going on here. All right, I love it. Fear and anxiety is in the reverse. No more of that. See, fear and anxiety goes away when you stand your ground. When you're not standing your ground, then you're oppressed and that's when the fear and anxiety come in because it bleeds through your soul when you're not standing up for yourself because, yeah, right? So your fear and anxieties, I see them dissipating because you get into this position. What did I say? Standing your ground, defending yourself, speaking up when you need to speak up to people, right? Not being afraid to nip things in the bud when it's time. When you don't nip it in the bud and then every time it happens and you don't say anything and you keep suppressing it, your fear and your anxiety grows and grows and grows and then, oh my god, magic is my favorite song. Your fear grows and grows and grows. Your anxieties get worse. It gets internalized and then you start getting depressed and then you don't want to do anything. But when you just speak your truth and not stifle yourself, here you go. That's when your fear and anxiety goes away. So if you haven't started doing that, maybe you're going to start learning how to do that, setting your boundaries with certain people and just not criticizing others but just saying, that didn't make me feel very good when you said that. I'm not comfortable with what you just said. I'm not comfortable with where you're talking to me or the way you're handling this with me being involved. It's okay. You're allowed to speak your mind. So you have positive vibes. Very good. Go out in the sun, Virgo. Get some vitamin D or start taking some supplements.  If you have little children or grandchildren, go to a playground. There's something here about being around children. If you can, because they're such high energetic little souls and they're always so happy. They really bring the light out. Even if they're not little, even if they're just younger, try to spend time with those less traumatized in life because they have like a refreshing way about them. Swim in the sea if you're near the ocean and you haven't been in the ocean, as long as it's swimmable, warm, or go to a pool if you're in it. If you go to a gym, join the pool if you have one nearby or something. Swimming is very freeing. Just spend as much time as you can and when you have time to play. Yeah, T.J., I don't think swimming where you are is a good idea. Maybe ice skating. Do something fun. The message here is, and enjoy your life. The energies are strong and powerful and all of the world is your play place. Just love your life. Just have fun. Do something fun. Go dancing. Anything. Get your, because you know why, those endorphins, even exercise, those endorphins will kick in and give you those feel good positive vibes.  It will replenish and fortify your spirit. Okay, you also have hope. So this is the star card. Make wishes on stars. Start setting your intentions and making your wishes because your dreams do come true when you set your intentions. Your hope, faith, and wishes will be restored. So make a wish right now and believe that this belongs to you. Attitude is everything. Perspective is everything. I was just talking that, talking about that today with someone where you could be standing in the middle. You could have somebody standing to your left who has like a Lamborghini and you could think to yourself they're so successful. I'm never going to have that kind of a car. This is just an example. I don't drive. I wouldn't even if I had the money. But I'm never going to have that kind of a car. I'm never going to make that kind of money. And then you could feel down about yourself. But then you could also be standing on the other side of you, someone who doesn't even own a pair of shoes. And then you could be saying, Oh, I'm so lucky that I have shoes. And do you see how perspective works? So it's all in your attitude. It's, it's what you're comparing yourself to. Don't, you know, find every day. I think I posted today. People who are happy. How did it go? People who are thankful are the happiest people in the world, right? It's not people who are happy or the most thankful. It's the people who are the most thankful are the happiest. So this is really just about finding things to be grateful for in your day. It feels like I'm preaching, but I'm not. I feel like you're really making some huge strides in your life and you're really changing. And there's somebody here who's listening to this is definitely resonating with this and is like totally understanding what's going on. All right. Let me see the messages of love in regards to who this person is or what this energy is playing out here in your life. That's right, Terry. We should not compare ourselves to others. Nope. Just compete with yourself. And as long as you win, you'll always be a winner because you'll be better than you were the day before. All right. Let me see. Okay. Mastery, you've learned the spiritual lesson. Well, this is your person. This is this person because we were talking about that. This person has got the hanged man. They are having a spiritual awakening in their life. And I feel like that's making huge changes. And a lot of this is why this is somebody you've manifested into your not, it's not manifesting a person. It's manifesting this kind of energy, right? So it's, it's very incredible here. What's going on is twin flame. Okay. There you go. So this is a divine counterpart connection here. It's a twin flame connection. And it's a positive. It's not a karmic. It's not a negative. Maybe for some of you, this is twin flames finally ascending as one coming together. Finally, after some struggle, whether between two people or you've never met them, and you guys are finally coming into union with your twin flame. Okay. Second chance. Okay. For some of you, this is another go around with this person. Second, third, I don't know, however many you've been. This is another go around with this person. This relationship deserves another chance. Well, specifically, it's a second chance, but you know, you all make up your own minds about things. Okay, let's get into you know what they just said, I'm going to pull a few more Chinese zodiac and see what these messages are here. You're welcome. If you guys want to stay, I'm going to pull some intuitive messages. I know I'm a little bit over the hour. And then some charms. Let me get a couple of more Chinese zodiac.

I'll take them back when pigs fly.  This little piggy went to the market. Do you know what that story is about? I just heard the other day. It was really like children's fables and children's story tales and stuff from way back were really morbid. Something to do like this piggy got butchered or killed or something. All right, let's see.

I urge all IOP members to look around you and think about where excellent physics is taking place and to nominate those people this year. You can find out all about the nominations process on our website. Thank you and good luck to all our nominees.


Well, this is gonna be a very long but hopefully informative video as you all know by now Afghanistan has fallen to the Taliban Now this brings an end to a nearly 20 year long war 20 years We were there for almost two decades and the outcome is disastrous it was all for nothing and I think that this proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the United States military is Incapable of competently spreading democracy or building other nations So let this serve as a reminder to you the next time you see Government officials or mainstream media beating the war drums against another country be at Venezuela or Bolivia Remember that this is always the outcome. We do not help we make matters worse But before I share my opinion on the situation and some takeaways that I think are the most important here I do want to give you a general overview of what's taking place. So here's a quick clip from democracy now With a very, you know, broad rundown of what's happening over the past 10 days The Taliban has captured 26 out of Afghanistan's 34 provincial capitals Some fell without a fight after the Taliban reached deals with local warlords The Taliban offensive came as the United States is withdrawing its troops from Afghanistan after nearly two decades of war and occupation The Biden administration is now rushing to send an additional 1,000 troops to Afghanistan to help evacuate us citizens and allies the total size of the US force will soon be 6,000 us troops have taken control of the international airport in Kabul While thousands of Afghan civilians are hoping to flee Taliban rule the US has canceled all commercial flights video went viral this morning of Hundreds of Afghans running alongside and trying to grab onto a US Air Force jet as it attempted to take off At least three people died after falling to their deaths while clinging on to a US plane Another died on the tarmac Over 60 nations including the United States have joined together to urge the Taliban to protect foreign nationals and Afghans who want to leave Afghanistan out of fear the Taliban will again brutally control the country like it did between 1996 and 2001 before the US invasion Now I'm not gonna play the video clips of people falling from the airplanes because that's that's just too much You know, you don't need to see that to acknowledge that the situation is really really terrible It's got wrenching enough to see these types of videos of people fleeing to get to the airport to run away from Taliban rule But I do want to give you some additional details This is from Brett Wilkins of common dreams who explains the stunning but predictable Taliban reconquest of Afghanistan marks the end of the nearly 20-year US-led war that cost the lives of more than 200,000 Afghans displaced over five million more and diverted at least two trillion in American taxpayer funds that progressive Critics said could have been better spent on programs of domestic and international social uplift and well-being and That paragraph is important because essentially in a nutshell it really paints this picture that we spent all of this money all of this time and effort and It was all basically for nothing the second we leave the Taliban takes over now If you're wondering what Afghanistan is going to look like under Taliban rule where what well They actually they did control Afghanistan prior to our invasion But if you want, you know a more clear picture I would say it's probably going to resemble the most conservative regions of Saudi Arabia Not that Saudi Arabia isn't you know entirely a very dictatorial Totalitarian theocracy But there are some areas in Saudi Arabia such as Riyadh for example where women don't cover their entire face Like they just cover their hair, but their faces show But you know in more conservative regions, they're forced to wear burqas They're not allowed to leave without a male companion and I think that most of Afghanistan is going to resemble the most conservative regions of Saudi Arabia, you know women's rights will not be respected LGBTQ people will essentially be Wiped out of existence if they don't go back into the closet if they were already out They will be likely killed it is gut-wrenching to see the situation But in terms of what it looks like right now CNN reporter on the ground in Kabul right now Clarissa Ward kind of paints a picture and you know right now not much has changed as of yet, but it's fairly ominous Mainly on the street. I would say it's Taliban and it's it's hard to show you but they're literally everywhere They're over there. They're over there. They're over there. They're everywhere And that's how they're able to implement force and implement security because people are so scared of them No one is going to fight the Taliban then you also have some men on the streets. You have some kids I have seen a few women But I will say I have seen far fewer women then I would ordinarily see walking down the streets of Kabul and the Woman that you do see walking down the streets of Kabul tend to be dressed more Conservatively than they were when they were walking down the streets of Kabul yesterday I've seen more burkas today than I had seen in a while Obviously, I am dressed in a very different way to how I would normally dress to walk down the streets of Kabul So there's a lot of children as well I think they're more curious than anything else and you know It's important to remember as well the Taliban does have to many people this bizarre sort of mystique John People are intrigued by them some people here genuinely see them as heroes And so it's a very odd cocktail that you find on the streets of Kabul with so many people hiding and Other people peeking out to see what comes next and nobody really knowing what on earth to expect Now prior to the Taliban season control This is what Biden said when he was asked about the likelihood that something like this would transpire Needless to say his response did not age very well No, it is not Because you have the Afghan troops have three hundred thousand Well equipped as well as equipped as any army in the world and an air force against something like 75,000 Taliban It is not inevitable, but the likelihood there's going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly Unlikely now maybe he got bad intelligence. Maybe he's just you know a little bit too optimistic or naive I think that that answer right there was awful because now he looks terrible. He looks incompetent and To a degree. I think that there is a lot of blame to be attributed to the Biden administration I think that right there when he was asked that he should have acknowledged the reality that this could happen But still made the case nonetheless for withdrawal because a lot of people saw this coming I mean veterans on the ground who served in Afghanistan knew that the second they left This was going to happen. So Biden should never had you know had tried to paint this overly rosy picture He should have just been realistic now after some time of silence after the Taliban retook Kabul He gave a different response. This is as of today and this is what he's saying now I'm now the fourth American president To preside over war in Afghanistan to Democrats and to Republicans I will not pass this responsibly on Responsibility on to a fifth president. I will not mislead the American people By claiming that just a little more time in Afghanistan will make all the difference Nor will I shrink from my share of responsibly for where we are today and how we must move forward from here. I Am president of the United States of America and the buck stops with me I'm deeply saddened by the facts we now face But I do not regret my decision to end America's warfighting in Afghanistan and maintain a laser focus on our counterterrorism Emissions there and other parts of the world Now I actually think that was a very solid response from Joe Biden He took responsibility for what's happening as he should because he's the president and the buck does stop with him But additionally he remained committed to withdrawing because here's the thing staying there indefinitely was never something that was feasible We can't occupy Afghanistan until the end of time but having said that Regardless if we withdrew in 2015 if we withdraw, you know right now or in 2030 This was inevitable. It was always going to happen It was always going to happen. So even though this is a really hard decision ultimately I do think that Biden made the right decision in withdrawing and I'm glad that he is remaining remaining firm in His his decision because the media is going to say hey, look, this is this is horrible all this bloodshed is on you We shouldn't have withdrawn, but that's the wrong take away ultimately. Yes It is very sad to see what is happening It's gut-wrenching to see the people of Afghanistan flee But what do we do? What's the alternative? And that's what we really don't get from the mainstream media We don't hear an alternative perspective There is no alternative either you Stay there forever or you acknowledge the reality that the Taliban would ultimately take over Afghanistan The best that you can do ultimately is get the people out who assisted us there Any interpreters who are promised, you know asylum Anyone who contracted with the United States government make sure that they're out So that way they won't be vulnerable under the Taliban rule who will view them as traitors now currently the Taliban is saying You know what? We're not going to prosecute anyone who worked with the US government But obviously I don't necessarily think that their word is very valuable So we have to make sure that we get people out. We'll talk about that in a second But Barbara Lee also agrees here that withdrawing is the option The only option because unfortunately, there's there's just no military solution to Afghanistan. This is the inevitable outcome Unfortunately, and it's horrible. We don't have to feel numb to the pain and suffering that we're witnessing right now But this was something that was always going to happen. It's just a matter of whether or not it's going to happen now Or later on down the line. This is what Barbara Lee had to say in an interview with an MSNBC host Congressman Lee, as you know, the war in Afghanistan is the longest war in US history Today from your point of view, is it safe to say America has lost that war? What I'm going to say is this first of all nice being with you is that our policy is to First of all nice being with you is that our focus and priority has got to be now the safety and security of the American citizens Our diplomats the Afghans our allies so many people who supported the American operation there And so we have to focus on the visas we have to focus on women and children the safety and security of everyone at this moment And I think it's a very dire situation This has got to be and it is an all hands-on deck operation a whole government operation and This is an example though that there is no military solution. Unfortunately in Afghanistan. We've been there 20 years We have spent over a trillion dollars and we have trained over 300,000 of the Afghan forces I think the president is absolutely correct Secretary of State Secretary Austin have laid this out and it's very difficult is very hard This is a tragedy and so we have to make sure that we focus and make a top priority getting people to safety And she's correct. There is no military solution Unfortunately in Afghanistan, which is why she was very adamant about us not going in there to begin with Because what's the goal? What are we going to do there? We're not feasibly going to construct a government that's going to last We're not going to be able to build a democracy. It's just not going to happen. So why are we there? Well, I mean we're there because This is profitable staying in Afghanistan as long as we possibly can is very profitable to the military industrial complex on top of that You know, we were raiding Afghanistan of their mineral resources So, you know, I think that ultimately it is correct that withdrawn is the right decision But even having said that though, even if I agree with Biden's decision ultimately and overall I do think that he absolutely is bungling the Situation as it relates to refugees Because he should have had some system in place, you know The US military generals should have anticipated a Taliban takeover and had, you know Well a plan B a plan C in the event this happened But it seemed as if there really wasn't any plan in place as Clarissa Ward of CNN reports The problem you have now There's definitely no plan in place to try to evacuate these people safely Okay, the US is really barely able to keep a hold on the situation at the airport right now Let alone trying to extend some kind of Corridor for people to leave through so that is simply out of the question The other problem you have is that there's this crush of humanity descending on the airport Vehicles clogging both lanes of traffic scenes of people firing in the air to stop a sort of Stampede almost people have been shot by stray bullets. It's it's absolute Pandemonium at the airport and if you don't have your visa ready If you don't have your passport ready because a lot of people were trying to prepare for this moment Brianna We saw it yesterday long lines outside the passport office, but no one Imagine that it would happen this quickly that they would have a matter of hours to pack up their lives Get together their paperwork book a ticket get to the airport I mean, it's completely unfeasible for the vast majority of Afghans And so they are now left in this desperate situation Petrified for their lives. They are being assured officially by the Taliban that there is a blanket amnesty Even for people who worked with the government even for people who worked with security forces But it doesn't take a genius to realize that for a lot of people. They're too scared to believe that they have huge reservations And so they are now hunkered down Waiting for more clarity Waiting for more guidance from the US as to how their paperwork will be expedited How they can get safely out of the country and in this moment There is not a huge amount of information coming through to them So it's a desperate situation so I mean this speaks to the incompetence of the United States government and Right now priority number one which everyone should be focused on is getting as many people out as possible We need to accept lots and lots of refugees anyone who wants to apply for asylum should be allowed to do that Because this is our fault any other country any western country that intervened in Afghanistan They should be opening up their doors to Afghanistan refugees and especially we have to make sure that US allies in Afghanistan get out because they are the most vulnerable and we also have to make sure that we prioritize Modernized groups as Dave New World points out There are 250 female judges in Afghanistan who will be killed if we don't grant them a special visa to get them out This should be bigger news the last time the Taliban took control They targeted judges because a female judge is everything that goes against Taliban philosophy And now because we went in there the Taliban is stronger than ever We trained hundreds of thousands of Afghani fighters Which now are likely going to be part of the Taliban like it or not and all those weapons that we gave to Afghan fighters That's all gonna go to the Taliban So because of our intervention the Taliban is stronger than ever So I think we are absolutely morally obligated To get as many people out as possible and for the individuals who don't want to come to the United States if they want to Flee to a neighboring country.  You have to make sure that you Offer them a home in the United States Because we did this so now currently neocons and warmongers were profiteers, you know members of the military industrial complex They are currently patting themselves on the back as if you know, they were proven corrects that you know Staying indefinitely was the better option Certainly we should have not pulled out because if we didn't pull out then none of this would have been happening But again, I want people to push back on that narrative by saying no, no, no, it's not the neocons who are right It's the anti-war leftists who are correct because they're the ones who from the get-go said this was never a good idea to intervene Barbara Lee for example who in 2001 as Kumar Roshir Said we must be careful to not embark on an open-ended war with neither an exit strategy nor a focused target We cannot repeat past mistakes, and that's correct The bottom line is that our presence there made matters worse us being there is a net negative and If we stayed in longer, that's not going to change the situation whenever we leave The Taliban is going to take control But let this serve as a reminder to us that war is never the option because we may think That we know it's best for a country We might think that there's a humane reason for intervening but that it's never the case a humanitarian war is Never the case because understand that you know the United States government our media establishment They never focus on humanitarian issues unless it serves their war profiteering purposes I mean we can focus on North Korea and Saudi Arabia and all the human rights abuses there But intervening in those countries is never an option because of course Saudi Arabia is our ally and it would just be too big of a disaster if we intervened in North Korea But we focus on these humanitarian crises where the military industrial complex sees an opportunity an Opportunity to act to try to you know cultivate sympathy for the suffering people of these countries And I think it's absolutely important that we do feel sympathy for these individuals it is natural and human to feel terrible and sad for the people of Afghanistan who are fleeing currently but don't let war Profiteers use your sympathy as a justification for more wars that only lines their pockets because the Americans who served in Afghanistan They saw firsthand that this was never a winnable war So this is from Jolly good ginger who says as a veteran of the Afghanistan war and as a citizen of the United States I feel physically sick to my stomach watching the Taliban take over I feel sadness for the people fleeing to avoid the terror that brings but one thing I don't feel I don't feel Shock not a solitary ounce of shock. We all knew we were spinning our wheels over there It was a giant ploy by rich men to get richer while me and other poor men and women pay the price of capitalism with our lives Our minds and our bodies so my message to America as we watch the Taliban take Afghanistan back is this feel shame We deserve it feel angry not at the Taliban No at the oligarchy that controls this country that willingly sends off our sons and daughters to pay in blood for their capitalist dreams exactly we should all feel sad and ashamed because of what's happening Our government did this so when you hear, you know, these neocon warmongers gone mainstream media and try to convince you that It was a bad idea to leave and you know try to build up the case for more never-ending wars Acknowledge that they never care about the human suffering. They never care about the death toll They don't they don't ever acknowledge The cost in human lives and the monetary cost that these wars have They have one goal and one goal only Propagate this military industrial complex By doing never-ending wars that is the most profitable solution and another veteran echoed that same sentiment from Jollygood ginger So this is from Lord Jude who explains boy, howdy am I having a lot of feelings about Afghanistan today? I deployed there twice once in 2008 and once in 2009 to 10 It was already obvious that the Taliban would sweep through the very instant we left and here we are today I know how bad the Taliban is.    No more blown-up soldiers. No more Bollywood videos on phones whose owners are getting shipped God knows where no more hypocrisy. No more pretending it meant anything.  We're back to where we started except the Taliban now is stronger than they were before we invaded it's just What a disgusting situation and really this shouldn't make anyone Think instinctively. Well, man, it just looks like the United States government. We need to expand our presence No, that should not be the takeaway the takeaway should be we need to stay away from other countries We cannot be the world's police Even if we wanted to be the world's police We don't know what we're doing and when we have actors from the military industrial complex not necessarily motivated by Compassion and empathy but instead motivated by money This is always going to be the outcome of our wars now finally I'll leave you with this tweet from Rana Abdel Hamid who tweets I was nine years old when I watched my congresswoman wear a burqa in Congress to justify the invasion of Afghanistan for the rest of my life I knew that as a Muslim woman my identity would be weaponized to justify American wars 20 years of war later What did we accomplish? What did we accomplish? If we stood there for five years more ten years more another 20 years would that change the outcome? No So the takeaway of this video isn't just that I think that Biden made the necessary I'll be it really difficult decision to withdraw knowing what would happen But it's that we should never allow our government to do this again you know years are gonna pass and There's gonna be a new administration that may beat the war drums for Iran Biden for example is very hawkish as it relates to Venezuela Most of the Democratic parties in lockstep with the military industrial complex when it comes to Venezuela They also have a lot of oil wealth, but again remember the minute that our establishment The political establishment government media starts beating the war drums against in another country This is always going to be the outcome. We're always going to make matters worse And if we don't it's the exception It's the exception World War two for example, but overall going to war with another country We're not we're not needed We're going to make matters worse because we don't care about human lives. We care about money That's why these never-ending wars happen because it's profitable So I'm glad that Joe Biden did the right thing and decided to withdraw But I want people to learn the right lessons from Afghanistan and understand What's going on and why things like this are happening
