As you were talking about the dying flame ...I thought of this candle I recently bought (I love candles btw) and I was a little disappointed by the flame being so low (could barely see it). I tried to light it longer hoping that would help but it wouldn't. I decided to just let it be.... for the past few days I've been wondering what this delicious smell has been in my house, and I realize it was that candle. My past candles had very big flames but didn't fill my house with such pleasant aroma. There still must be something special about 'that' low or dying flame.
This reminds me so much of raising children. Putting strands of straw onto mild fire embers, not seeing much in return but we keep on feeding their fire, their passion until one day they suddenly do something like learn to ride a bike and give you that huge beaming smile of joy that they've done it! Or whispering that they love you in the dark at bedtime when you think they're already asleep.
Beautiful talk today, Adam. Doing my best to light little flames... knowing it is important to those I love, and what makes life feel good. Thank you for this reminder.
I have Libra rising and Venus in Capricorn and have recently started dating a Capricorn rising. He found out this week, with the Pluto in Capricorn, that he needs heart surgery. My visits to see him in the hospital have felt very sweet and meaningful. Seems like a very fitting dynamic for this transit!
I love your multi-faith approach to explaining transits for us. Saint Theresa of Avila has so many amazing teachings on purgatory and prayer. Her Interior Canon is an amazing read. Saint Thomas Aquinas, the Angelic Doctor has so many amazing teachings on Angels. Saint Padre Pio has amazing experiences to share with the world in regards to Angels surrounding us everyday, in every imaginable way we could think of. You’re the second astrologer I’ve come across within the past month that has mentioned Saint Theresa of Avila. I take it as a sign. God bless you Adam 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Brilliant Adam. I really enjoyed this one and so true regarding desire. That's one of the reasons I don't pay attention to other people very much. I've decided life is too short to deny myself pleasure. There is a food documentary series called Salt, Fat and Sugar. The hostess explained that those are the ingredients that give flavor to food. My husband is bent on cutting out all of those out of our diet...often creating cardboard food and thinking I should be delighted because it's "healthy." I realized I prefer to enjoy eating as opposed to trying to live forever via eating "healthy." He desires to be healthy, and I desire to have new exciting food experiences.
I have found it isn't my desires that are unhealthy but my attachment to them. It helps my emotional balance efforts when I can adjust the desire to a preference.
I use this fire metaphor so often for love. I had to make my own fire to keep warm in a cabin for 5 years and it taught me so much about love and metabolism too. I'm a rising scorpio with mars in gemini...when I listen to your talks I often find that we are contemplating very similar things, merc cap here. What you're saying here is so relevant now...people are so obsessed with convenience that they have forgotten how and where to put the attention, effort and elbow grease in life. And that its through arduous processes that you actually fall deeper in love with life. To your point though, my Libra moon has wondered about fighting for love and whether that is counter intuitive, but you helped me realize it is really more about knowing what you are fighting for and why that matters. So long as it isn't hurting anyone of course. This transit is right on my moon and square to my Chiron in Cancer 9th and Saturn in Cap 3rd, with transit Mars on my natal mars in gem opposing my sun! 🤯I feel so many things changing in me. So ready for March!
Thanks for the beautiful message. This is so timely for me. A few days ago a new passion was sparked within me. I have no expectations except to be present for the unfolding.
St. Therese of the Child Jesus 🙏❤️. She was from Lisieux, France. She died when she was 24 years old. And when I pray to Her I got planty od roses from heavens 🙏❤️
love this idea of our desires as our teachers. i woke up this morning thinking about how the two activities that make me feel most at peace are sex and driving. the transits of the last year have led to an obsession with tattoos, which i now have to reign in because they're expensive. however, this very venus/pluto obsession (i have both planets in my 1st house) has taught me a lot about myself. the tattoos have transformed my feelings about my body, helping with body dysmorphia, making me love parts of my body i used to hate, and making my reflection in the mirror feel more like myself. as a youth i survived a cult that brainwashed me and erased my personality. tattoos feel like a permanent commitment to being myself, to my own individuality that can never be taken away, even after i die. there are mummies from thousands of years ago whose tattoos are still intact. :) #grabbed
How Adam speaks of “showing up” reminds me of a beautiful Ted talk by Elizabeth Gilbert titled Your Elusive Creative Genius. It is a must watch for anyone who is an artist or loves an artist of any kind.
Wow, I'm finishing up my last year in an MFA program and have really been going through the "I hate everything I'm writing" phase. I don't have access to a safe way to burn paper, but I'll have to think about some kind of ritual for showing up! Thanks for this!!
ooooo... WOW! looks great in RED! (Edit: ah... and he speaks of burning *ref: red 🔥 - ref: read 📖 past tense of read sounds like red - yet, spelled the same) & yes, I once torched my Poetry. Felt, initially, *the sting*, then immediately the liberation... less to carry... ironically, meant more to hold.
Taming of the Power of the Small iChing #9 immediately came to mind, one of my favorite for its low key approach. With all due respect to your struggle, this episode moved me to say I feel you made a solidly ❤️felt choice to regain your given name. I feel the blessing of your return in voice of your talk, perhaps expressing at a different vibration. As Astrology is a top passion of mine; your expose of Venus/Pluto planetary dynamic so brilliantly expressed inspires deep pondering. Love bows to no one, thankfully. Profoundly felt, meagerly voiced with gratitude.
This was really profound and resonated so much with what I'm going through and where I want to go and grow. Pluto squares my Jupiter in Libra 10th house... Merci/Thank you Adam! 🙏
Thanks Adam for sharing your unique perspective with the world 🙂 I found your video to be very helpful indeed. It brought me alot of clarity which funnily enough, brought me peace hah! ☮️
It's interesting that you talked about a marriage reigniting, I've been trying to get back with my ex recently. She told me she didn't see herself marrying me and after about a month or two, I decided to give her space. After about 4 or 5 months I decided to start throwing pieces of straw back on the fire (I've always liked the fire building analogy for building romantic relationships btw). It's been me calling her and reaching out to her but I've felt a change in the mood between us specifically in these last couple of days. Her hitting me up, more fun and playfulness in our conversation, even a statement of how long it would be before we are partners on the level of husband and wife that she made... which in my head means she's at least thinking about it. Anyways, just an interesting correlationfrom my life and what you said #grabbed
#grabbed Venus square Pluto (9th and 12th houses, respectively) I received a text message from a friend regarding a posted picture of my ex-husband holding my son she had seen. It was posted by a member of a church I used to attend. She had not tagged me and the picture had no explanation. This created quite a bit of confusion from several people in our connected friend groups and stirred up several conversations. My ex-husband was very abusive, and most friends and family are familiar with our story. There is a lot of pain associated with his presence in my existence. Seeing this post by someone who I no longer have connection with and being confronted with that pain and loss was quite bizarre in the given context.
These all relate, wow. #grabbed I have been working on more high end, upscale events as a florist lately and there are aspects of this work that are so beautiful and gratifying (more beautiful flowers, better products, grander events and overall aesthetics) but so much that is more repulsive to me. The level of money, power struggles, snobbery, superficiality, vanity, and cattiness that occurs is just gross to me. It’s hard to fully come to terms with, even though I’m sure there is a lot worse that goes on in the industry, and frankly, it just comes with the territory. I’m trying to adjust to where I can tolerate it better, but it’s discouraging when ugly realities cast their shadows on your dream.
I respect and understand you advertising your course and program, but would you mind putting time stamps for when your advertising is over and when the astrology starts? Thanks so much 🙏🏼✨
You look great in that red shirt, Adam! It's my Solar Return tonight: Venus/Sun squared by tr Pluto while exactly trining natal Uranus 26 Gemini w transiting Mars nearby. SR Moon conjunct natal Pluto/Saturn in Leo sextiling both! Should be an exciting creative year w the Venus STAR tattooed upon SR w 5 points when w my natal n node at 26 Taurus is included. We'll see! #grabbed
I have natal Pluto 6⁰ in Libra 9th house, along with Uranus at 26⁰. I have Venus in my first house at 1⁰ conjunct Jupiter at 9⁰. How might this play out for me?
As a woman and for other reasons possibly as well, I liked GoT but found it very difficult to watch because it felt like the show kind of glorified cruelty and I don’t recall the show showing as much depth with the characters. With HotD I really notice more depth to the characters, and find it easier to relate to them. I appreciate how much it highlights the roles women play in their own desire for autonomy and power. I haven’t watched GoT since the initial time, so it’s possible I didn’t notice these things as much then. In part I think I was too often repulsed and not able to notice more about the show. Also, I love the idea of tending regularly to our heart fire. I’ve noticed this is something I’ve naturally been doing more in recent months.
Anyone have any advice for severe dopamine depletion? I do acts of service all day every day with love and compassion in my heart, I meditate, read anthroposophical writings all the time, but I cannot feel those good feelings within (the fire) no matter what. It’s really so very strange. Maybe I should do something Robert Anton Wilson suggested - watch hilaritas movies all day. Idk. I think I’m going through a bout of depression and I don’t know why. Maybe cuz I have a very bad skin sickness that is not going away and getting worse by the day, even with my regimen of Chinese herbs and acupuncture from my practitioner. It’s all in the stars I guess - just one of my slumps. This one is just a really long one and is really getting me down.
#grabbed It's a teeny little one but... I've been low key researching the birth and death cycle of Venus. Digging thru comparisons of Venus "points" in relation to Venus things like a natal Venus enclosure, a business chart with Venus Mc, a friend entering a Venus year. Just feeling my way through the dark as a novice. And I feel something! Although, I have no words for it yet. And dang, I broke rules in a class format group- by mentioning material that isn't related to class material. Just this overwhelming compulsion... Now I'm reflecting on my inner code of values & ethics, for the second time in 24 hours.
Side note, if anyone clicks here. I have one tattoo, between my shoulder blades- "in love and death". Natal Saturn & Venus are absolute exact sextile. Venus Cap & Saturn Scorpio.
It's like women love psychopaths and mail with inmates and take them home when released. But it's nature so I don't judge. Vs men who love innocence even if it's not always appropriate.
You should make t-shirts with just a giant pink arrow on them … NA Merch

Hahahaha yes!!!!
I’d buy one 😁
I want a tshirt!
Yes!!! Hoodies!!!

Cardboard food😂😂✌️💯enjoy life..only way💯✌️
Right on sister
I have found it isn't my desires that are unhealthy but my attachment to them. It helps my emotional balance efforts when I can adjust the desire to a preference.
Thanks Adam! Pluto squares my sun sign which is Libra and this time has just been WILD! Your input has been so helpful along this journey
Thanks for continuing to warn us about the scammers (it eliminates the 'fear' of being rude to you, as we ignore it)

15:33 thats interesting. I wonder what it is about someone that makes a person make that distinction.
I have so much to learn from Pluto in this lifetime 🤔
