Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining me here today. I had a few problems connecting. I am in Seattle at the moment and calling from a different phone. And, you know, Mercury retrograde wanted to give me some problems, but no worries. We are here now.

We are live.

It is a beautiful day, August 23rd, 2017, and what a week it has been.

Did you see the solar eclipse, no matter where you are in the world?

Did you have a chance to feel it, to see it, to experience the phenomenon

of this amazing spectacle that happens twice a year, but we don't always see it. Oftentimes

it happens over the ocean. It might not be a total eclipse. It could be a partial eclipse.

And we don't have all of the cameras handy to capture

all these amazing images. I hope you are able to enjoy it. And we will have another eclipse

in February. Yes, the next eclipses will be in February 2018. So here we are as we move through the last week of August.

And one of the big themes right now is literally coming back to Earth. The sun is in Virgo, the moon is in Virgo, and Mercury is in Virgo, although retrograde.

And Virgo is where we plant our feet on the earth.

We touch the soil.

We touch the trees.

We look at what supports us, as well as how we support others. We look at our practical

needs. We look at ourselves in a physical sense. We remember we have to take care of our bodies.

We have to pay attention to our daily lifestyle, choices, habit.

And so at this time, we need to come back to Earth.

And the energies have been big enough that we could have felt off of our feet at time.

A little perhaps lightheaded, fuzzy.

You could have felt that there was just been so much going on.

It's been hard to keep up.
