Wow! Phenomenal! Who needs a councillor when we have you, Christopher! You have such a succinct way of explaining our innermost stumbling blocks and bring them into the light so they can be healed! Thank you!
You know! I'm here in tears. I've had 27yrs of therapy, but never a session quite like this! Wanting to save my coins to hopefully schedule a read from him some day. ❤️🩹
I so look forward to you each and every Sunday! Wish we got more of you but I really cherish your insights, your time & your energy! Thank you so much!
Thank you, Christopher! That was very helpfull. As a Capricorn Sun, i recognise these defenses. The fear of not having, the bitterness of frustration, the obedience to invisible family orders, the never enough, the hiding from my own light, the toughness, austerity, resistance to what?... This long Pluto transit brought all that to the suface. Mercury helps to make It clear. All these defenses are self-fullfiling profecies at the end. I am not far away from losing everything, again, and always fighting against it. Maybe this time I can just accept the possibility, learn to live with It instead of being in eternal struggle, just let go all these "must" and "have to" and...and then what? That's a big Capricorn void. Maybe just live...
"Maybe just live" is a beautiful mantra. Perhaps the most important thing we can say to ourselves and others. I hope things get better for you Kristof. It sounds like you've been through some pretty rough patches. 😊
wow, Christopher. I've watched so many of your videos, loving them, loving you. But this one has to go in your personal record books. So above and beyond. Maybe it's because I'm a psychologist with literary leanings and not the other way around. So beautiful.
Wow Christopher, I love the depth of this lesson! Guilt, defensive behaviors and the ways these emotions cover for our vulnerabilities and the ways they steal our spiritual comforts and growth just wow. Thank you! 🙏
❤❤❤ love love love these podcasts. Thank you. Happy to be an IC member with Astrology Hub! If you’re on the fence about membership - do it!! It’s a beautiful community! ❤
Dearest Christopher Thank YOU 🙏 PRECIOUS ONE you literally cleared a huge very important life issue For me a 71 year old Pisces lady Born in 1951 March 10 th With a scorpio ♏️ rising Now all I have to do IS Put this into action That’s the work ahead of me I definitely see a way out So it’s worth finding the courage To put this new awareness Into a healthy happier relationship With myself Thank YOU 🙏 AGAIN Wondrous One Lotsa Love 💕 Tiger 🐅 Lotus🪷
Wow Christopher, I am just going to reiterate what you said, that is so important when facing these patterns, "be loving", maybe being like a caring loving mother or father to these parts of self that really were or are doing their best from their level of consciousness to protect one, they need permission and love, and a feeling of safety to know it is okay to let go.
The 'Loyal Soldiers' ... being brought home ... it's a beautiful story and a wonderful allegory for the ego defences that need to be reintegrated into the whole self. And, the wonderful message for each of us that does this, is that the internal war, is over. Tetelestei ... It is finished. Peace be with you and in you.
Awe! Love this… so important to heal all the programs we have been given. And the aspects!!! Healing as many aspect of the Soul while we are here is brilliant. Once again Christopher, beautiful and moving insights and inspirations…. Blessings
I found the editing and audio quality of this week’s talk to interfere with the beauty and magic of your message and storytelling. I really love your work.
Thank You Christopher! That was deep!! How brilliant to convey the energies we are transiting thru a story even those with little understanding of the “astrology” can relate to and identify with. May all hear your words and be inspired to move forward with wisdom and understanding 💜🙏🙏
Wow .. this was so moving for me, you are truly among the best of the story tellers .. I really hope I can work with my defense mechanisms and repatriate them 🤗..
Very poignant and can relate to this in different circumstances . Helplessness is tragic , guilt now ebbing away this year . Speaking as a Capricorn I understand how I do this xxx interestingly an article in the Guardian found that psychologists have found a phenomenon called ‘ learned loneliness ‘ has happened since the pandemic xxx
Ok Professor, you struck a cord! I've been sitting with this message for the past two days...I went through my fridge as an exercise and yup...I found things to throw out...testing, withholding, austerity, I didn't realize these were my actual defense mechanisms...Mercury conjunct Pluto is how my mind thinks in the 10th House...in the House associated with my ascendant ruler, Saturn, where he is exalted in Libra and INDEED, my mind digs deep for the Truth and INDEED I can show the face of withdrawing unto myself, I do it all of the time, out of fear that someone is going to take advantage of me or use me and under value me...I don't know if I can let that go...I might be the one found in the cave still defending a war that has ended...lawd.
Oh, I think you'll come out when you feel ready. OMG! I just got struck with the image of Glenda from the Wizard of Oz calling out "come out, come out wherever you are" to all the forgotten Japanese soldiers from WW 2! 😊
Every week a new and fascinating resources encouraging us to keep digging deeper.. Grateful as always for the vast richness you share with your listeners .. Thank you for your invaluable teachings 💜
I always enjoy your teachings but this one touched me very deeply. You transmitted so much compassion beyond your words which made this wisdom sink in so much more profoundly. We can reach these areas in ourselves only if we go there without judgement and this is exactly how you lead the way: with love. Thank you!
I absolutely love this weeks show. This is so apt. I have been working on this the past 3 years. I understood then when I started this journey that indeed all those unsavoury 'traits/habits' were my way of protecting myself. Some served me really well but so many of them are not congruent with the person I am today. Thank you so much as always Christopher and here is wishing you a fabulous week ahead. 🙏🏿
You are one of my favorite story tellers I swear! Love listening to you. Thank you for the free education and awesome stories, you are such a gem! 🙏✨️💛🖤
Yeah I'm fairly sure that we all can relate to this one Christopher. Whosh the shifting and transforming of the mechanisms is truly a feet when addressed. It's been a huge massive extreme week. Thank you Pluto for bulldozing, good ridens and see you in 240 years in a new paradyim where we all are not so insanely attached to money. Yes there's a place for it, we get it. Heart energy sent your way🌴☺️🏖️🙏 Have a fabulous full moon in Leo 🦁
I can relate without a doubt to guilt masking helplessness with the passing of my mother a year ago and my husband’s progressing illness today. I will have to read Ms. Pagel’s books. Thank you for your stories and recommendations ❤ They help me immensely.
This week you have hit it out of the block. This talk hits my natal Moon in Capricorn in my 5 house which has the aspect of Saturn square moon in Capricorn. In reflection I give my self permission to release and or reappropriate my shadow self . Thank you Christopher Renstrom
I try not to be a respecter of persons but Christopher you are my favorite astrologer ❤️. You really bring it home with the essence of how C.Jung related it. Everytime I watch one of your videos it gives me great joy to do the introspection work afterwards. And your stories about history and mythology are fantastic.
I have been in survival mode since I was little . My defense mechanism are so much part of who I am , the lines are so blurred , I don’t even know the I know what’s a defense mechanism and what not any longer . Time to dig deep and start living find my sparkle ✨. Breath easy and let go to grow . Great lesson once again Christopher. Thanks for sharing . ❤Ps . Mercury 4 degrees Aquarius along with my NN at 4 degrees and my Sun at 13 degrees in my 11th house . ❤
Reviewing this video on Feb 9th as I am feeling the intensity starting this morning. Very much working to understand the defense mechanisms that are causing me emotional and physical havoc. As a Cap Sun and Scorpio Ascendant, I'm feeling overwhelmed. Thank you Christopher 💓 for this explanation of the energies of Scorpio Mercury conj in Cap, and how to work WITH the energy to heal. 💓 It helps me to realize I'm not going crazy!
The descriptions of the Saturnian defense mechanisms offered here were insightful and they helped me immensely. The whole presentation was so well done, the stories of the Japanese soldiers illustrated your point perfectly about holding onto what is no longer relevant but deeply imprinted. Thank you, thank you. Just brilliant.
Christopher, I love your stories! This Pluto story went deep... but then everything is deep when it comes to Pluto! Thank you so much for making these transits come to life! I so appreciate you!
I wish this episode were an extended version without edits 🥺 Language drips from the overflowing mind, liquid annunciation choreographed through lore, history, and time... I soak it all in 💜
Thank you for those stories a fascinating way to look at defence mechanisms, I remember those stories in the 1970's - My reflection was on all three and the debilitating feelings of helplessness which must have touched all of them at some point. Helplessness and a sense of inadequacy are such tender places for so many and part of being human, we are helpless in the face of so much in our human experience - perhaps this is the true face of courage when we are able to embrace our fragility yet not hide in the hole but face the vulnerability of experiencing life in all its' hideous beauty?
Christopher - this is brilliant! An examination of the psychological constructions built to protect a tender heart and soul. How to recover the innocence beneath. Never heard the process so beautifully articulated. Thank you for your insight as regards the Capricorn shade of this realization and healing. Wonderful.
I am a Capricorn sun (0*). I get the bitterness. Scorpio rising, too (Pluto). I won the art fair in the 4th grade. I totally didn’t expect it. I won out of the whole school that went to 6th grade. No one came to my award show, not even me. I was embarrassed to go bc neither of my parents thought it was important to go. I have 3 brothers who were always in sports. My mom never missed any of their games. I think this may have been when I gave up.
My gosh, thank you for teaching by way of story, for bringing the canon to life, the universal...and helping me to feel and see these things within myself...helping so much with cognitive dissonance, helping me to bring my inner world closer in resonance with my present external experience. To me, the core problem with this PTSD. How can psychiatrists who only prescribe...psychiatry, doctoring the soul at root, so said...how can these physicians have hope to help in such a way, to literally adminster to the soul, with no knowledge of the liberal arts tradition, the home of the human condition, experience, and expression, and medicine...? They cannot. And, today, I stumble across your expressions, presented so beautifully, kindly, deftly, creatively, and with such gentle and yet laser accuracy...an arrow that hits the mark, yet delivers no pain, only softening, curiosity to see, feel, explore. My goodness, i will need to listen to this beautiful medicine/food/fire/nurture many times, like a meditation that lands like a warm hug wrapped in the softest quilt. Thank you so very very much.
I couldn't agree with you more Pamela about the enormous contribution that the liberal arts play in the growth and care of the soul. Thank you for sharing that. 😊
Thank you! You are utterly the best “teacher”. I woke up at 5am and listening to you is how I’m starting my day. Can’t think of a better way. Now coffee and thinking about your lesson. You are amazing. Thank you thank you ❤❤❤
I am deeply grateful for this episode. You are such a wonderful story teller. I like many of your episodes. This one stands out for me. Such a great offering to reflect upon own patterns. The extra sweetness about it that you are presenting these multiple stories in such a gentle way that we a super curious about your telling while you enable us to loosen our default defense automatism. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
👏🏽All of this 🤎💫 I just love how you find the absolute best story/stories to bring about the moral of these transits. Thank you Christopher for sharing 🙏🏽 😊
Remarkable knowledge and wisdom, dear Christopher. So much insight offered into empowerment. You are my favorite storyteller who keenly weaves stories through astrology Thank you
Dear Christopher, This feels so deeply relevant and helpful. Thank you so much. I will dive into the depths of my own defenses and gently dismantle, and re-purpose them if possible. Sending you a gentle heart hug
Addressing some deep cuts today, Christopher. I needed to be called out, so thank you. Natal Venus in 6th House Capricorn is currently being conjunct by Pluto..and subsequently Mecury next week. This is the last chance to release these coping mechanisms. Thanks for the reminder..and the therapy session!
Thanks Christopher, though I plan to live a long life, 240 more years is unlikely, at least in this human form. I love the idea of clearing out the refrigerator, the psyche clean up! Excellent.
Thank you so much. My Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Midheaven are all in Capricorn. This talk was almost as if you are talking directly to me. I am even a military veteran and I completely understand the Japanese soldiers. So amazing. Again, thank you.
💰 Yes, focusing on money can be a defensive mechanism to make sure you are self-reliant and independent. Especially if you've been in a situation where you cannot rely on anyone else. It means freedom from worry about your physical well being.
Need more C.R. 🛎
Christopher Renstrom’s storytelling is EPIC!!!!
Wow! Phenomenal! Who needs a councillor when we have you, Christopher! You have such a succinct way of explaining our innermost stumbling blocks and bring them into the light so they can be healed! Thank you!

wow, Christopher. I've watched so many of your videos, loving them, loving you. But this one has to go in your personal record books. So above and beyond. Maybe it's because I'm a psychologist with literary leanings and not the other way around. So beautiful.

Wow .. this was so moving for me, you are truly among the best of the story tellers .. I really hope I can work with my defense mechanisms and repatriate them 🤗..
I'm sure that you can. It's the perfect thing to do with Mercury forming a conjunction to Pluto this week. 😊
Thank you for being so comprehensive about this, Christopher! The part about re-integrating is important, and yet little talked about.
I'm glad you picked up on the re-integrating. I think it's so very important. 😊
Very poignant and can relate to this in different circumstances . Helplessness is tragic , guilt now ebbing away this year . Speaking as a Capricorn I understand how I do this xxx interestingly an article in the Guardian found that psychologists have found a phenomenon called ‘ learned loneliness ‘ has happened since the pandemic xxx
I'm going to have to check out that article. It sounds fascinating. 😊 Thanks for recommending.

That was so insightful, Christopher, thank you! If there was ever a clarion call for compassion, especially self-compassion, this is it!
I hope so Melody. We could all use compassion - for others and for self - nowadays. 😊

This man is brilliant
Thank you for those stories a fascinating way to look at defence mechanisms, I remember those stories in the 1970's - My reflection was on all three and the debilitating feelings of helplessness which must have touched all of them at some point. Helplessness and a sense of inadequacy are such tender places for so many and part of being human, we are helpless in the face of so much in our human experience - perhaps this is the true face of courage when we are able to embrace our fragility yet not hide in the hole but face the vulnerability of experiencing life in all its' hideous beauty?
What a wonderful insight Karen. Thank you for sharing. 😊
Well, goddamm. When he said bitterness I RUSHED over to hear him louder and replayed, you BETTA SPEAK ON IT! mm mm mm.
😊
4 minutes in, listening as I put groceries away; and my rabbit jumps into the fridge. Coaxing him out when the fridge analogy drops. Life is so funny.
Thank you for sending me pictures of the rabbit in the fridge Kate. I'm still chuckling over them. 😊
I am learning a lot from you. Thanks for fascinating stories about Japonaise soldiers.
Christopher - this is brilliant! An examination of the psychological constructions built to protect a tender heart and soul. How to recover the innocence beneath. Never heard the process so beautifully articulated. Thank you for your insight as regards the Capricorn shade of this realization and healing. Wonderful.

Dear Christopher, This feels so deeply relevant and helpful. Thank you so much. I will dive into the depths of my own defenses and gently dismantle, and re-purpose them if possible. Sending you a gentle heart hug
Addressing some deep cuts today, Christopher. I needed to be called out, so thank you. Natal Venus in 6th House Capricorn is currently being conjunct by Pluto..and subsequently Mecury next week. This is the last chance to release these coping mechanisms. Thanks for the reminder..and the therapy session!
Thanks Christopher, though I plan to live a long life, 240 more years is unlikely, at least in this human form. I love the idea of clearing out the refrigerator, the psyche clean up! Excellent.
Thank You Christopher! Brilliant teaching. I look forward to your work every week!😊
Christopher, this was so powerful!
Thanks Christopher, very insightful and helpful.
Thank you so much. My Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Midheaven are all in Capricorn. This talk was almost as if you are talking directly to me. I am even a military veteran and I completely understand the Japanese soldiers. So amazing. Again, thank you.
I'm so glad that this week's horoscope resonated with you David. And thank you for watching. 😊
Thank God for you, Christopher.
And thank Heavens for you Juraci Roberto. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I really appreciate it. 😊

And thank YOU Julie for stopping by and watching. I really appreciate it! 😊
Brilliant - a total gem - thank you Christopher!🌻
Wow. THAT was fantastic. Thank you so much Christopher. 🙏
💰 Yes, focusing on money can be a defensive mechanism to make sure you are self-reliant and independent. Especially if you've been in a situation where you cannot rely on anyone else. It means freedom from worry about your physical well being.
You got it! 😊
Brilliant analysis, Christopher!
