Hey friends, welcome back and happy holidays. I'm so happy to be spending this time with you

here tonight. This episode is an oldie but goody and it was brought to us by the beloved Rick

Merlin Levine and what we will be doing is exploring the mythos of the Christmas star. Rick is

masterful at weaving astrology, history, and mythology, and taking

us on a really, really soulful journey. Interestingly, this episode happened right before a historic

moment, the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction of 2021. This was a pivotal collective moment for all of us. And now we're at the

precipice of another historic moment as we are about to have the Saturn Neptune conjunction

at zero degrees of Ares. So we thought that bringing this episode back right now when we're

at another collective turning point would be an interesting

and fruitful endeavor. Whether you're in a bustling full house right now or you're spending a

quiet holiday season, I just want to take this opportunity to thank you for welcoming us

into your home and your heart throughout 2025.

I hope this show has brought you insights, awareness,

and that special kind of light that astrological wisdom carries.

Thank you for being a part of our community and enjoy the show.

All right.

So, Rick, not only did I miss you last week,

but I am so excited about this episode

because I figured it could go either way. We're talking about the Christmas star of modern times.

And I know you're going to take us on a little journey back to the star of Bethlehem.

And the big question in my mind is, is what's happening

on Monday, the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction, a similar event to what happened at the star of Bethlehem
