Welcome to Moonbeaming, a podcast about creativity, magic, tarot, lunar living, and more. I'm your host, Sarah Faith Godestiner, and I am so happy you are here today. Hello everyone and welcome. We have a really phenomenal episode of Moonbeaming this week. Of course, I'm a little bit biased of course

Because this is my podcast, but I'm pretty sure you're gonna love it as well. I wanted to just share a little bit.

I record these episodes in advance obviously because I need to week's episode before the

wonderful Caitlin George Parker to edit.

I recorded last week's episode

before the insurrection on the capital, before the attempted coup, and I'm

recording this week's episode for inauguration week before inauguration week.

Obviously I cannot see the future, but my sense is the intensity and the chaos, the unrest, and the violence are going to continue. I expect this week to be an intense one for all of these

reasons. What we're seeing isn't just about the astrology or the card of the year,

although I am quite disappointed that we are already seeing the shadows of the

hereofant archetype.

People believing in something

so strongly that those beliefs make them do incredibly destructive, incredibly violent things. And I want to be clear that my belief is that all spiritual modalities that help to describe the energy, what's going on, they are correlations, not causation.

The fact that this is a Herofant year is not making anyone do anything. I do believe that we have free will to a point.

And that's absolutely a topic for another podcast episode.

The reason why this is happening isn't because of any

archetypes or planets or anything like that. This is happening because human beings

have not reckoned with the history and the past and the truth of what the United States was founded upon.

As we move through this week, as we move through this year and our lives.

Let's be really mindful about how we use our energy,

how we use our words, what actions we take. It is completely normal, beyond normal, to be feeling

intense, anxiety, grief, rage, anger, fear.
