Hi, my name is Joni Petrie and welcome to my YouTube channel. Well, today I'm going to talk about the month of August. And I have to say I have much better news awaiting you for this month. Seems like everything is turning around in a much more positive way. So we have a little window of time that we can focus on ourselves and create the changes that we need so that we can avert when other things change in a different direction. You see, astrology is an ongoing cycle. There's always things changing. And I am seeing, seeing that this month has some beautiful opportunities in it based on the fact that Jupiter will be traveling with the full Moon this month on the 22nd. And Jupiter will bring optimism, it will bring hope for the future. But I must say this is all in preparation because by the month of September through October, I noticed that Mars and the sun are going to be traveling close together. As a matter of fact, they will conjoin on October 8th.
And not only are Mars and the sun going to be together, but they're going to be in the sign of Virgo. And Virgo is always, always about health and healing. And we have got to use the energies in this month to strengthen ourselves in every way. And I believe this is the great awakening this month. We can use this energy in such a positive way. I'm going to direct you, I'm going to show you how, because this will help prevent any of the problems that, that we may be facing down the road. September, October, and through the end of this year. But everything is an opportunity for growth. And this is the month I feel is going to be remarkable. And there's going to be tons of travel, there's going to be new discoveries. This is an exciting month for positive movement forward. As a matter of fact, this is a good month to create anything that you've been wanting to work on. Forward movement is the name of the game this month. Why? Because Mercury is in tip top speed. As a matter of fact, Mercury will cover, not cover, but it will actually be in three different signs within this month. And that's what happens when Mercury conjoins the sun in a superior conjunction. You see, Mercury and Venus have this particular cycle because they are in the inside of Earth to the Sun.
And when they have their process of retrograde and direct, it's very significant when they are close to the sun or far away from the Sun. As a matter of fact, when planets go retrograde, they are actually closer to the Earth. And when we have a conjunction of a planet with the sun, and it is on the inside. I'm actually referring to Mercury and Venus on the inside of Earth to the Sun. This is when they turn retrograde because they're closest to the Earth. But when they're on the opposite side of the sun, it's actually called superior conjunction. But when a planet is retrograde, Venus or Mercury, and they are on the inside of the sun and Earth, this is actually called an inferior conjunction. And that is when planets are retrograde. But now Mercury's on the other side going tip top speed. And another thing is when it passes the sun and becomes a higher satirical degree, it's going to become an evening star. And evening stars are definitely more, they're more out there, they're more extroverts, they want to get out and be with people. They're not as introverted. So this is a time of planning new projects, traveling, getting out and about. And if you've been delaying something like writing that book or anything to do with signing contracts, moving forward, this is the month, this is the month to take advantage of this positive, fast moving energy. Mercury is the mind and intellect, intelligence. And when it's going tip top speed is the best time for you to progress, move forward, do all the things that you've been holding off on. Because last month, with all the intense energy of the T square Mars opposed Saturn, square Uranus, we were all feeling really, really intense. This was a time when people were on edge and so many things were happening around the world. All these small pockets of major crises I saw everywhere. Now this is the time that it's going to open because here's why, really, the last two days of July, around July 29 to the 31st, Mars and Jupiter will be opposed to each other. I mean, conjunct, yeah, opposed, excuse me, can oppose each other at 5 degrees of Leo. So Mars and Jupiter, 5 degrees of Leo. Think about this opposition being 5 degrees Aquarius. 5 Leo. What is 5 degrees Leo? It is the fixed star Regulus, which is the heart of the lion, which actually rules the heart energy. And this activation of Mars here, sending its light to Jupiter and Jupiter sending its light back to Mars, there can be a major awakening of goodness, opening the heart. Realize that the heart energy is love and the heart energy is what truly heals everything. The body, the mind, the spirit. Our planet use this energy because now, after the difficulties, we're able to move on to, to something far greater than ourselves. So this is exciting to me to be able to give this good news. I feel like there's going to be many breakthroughs this month, especially dealing with health, healing with consciousness, conscious awareness. This is where people start to wake up. Now, I got to say, I can't speak for everyone, but for those of you that, that want to improve and make your life better, this is a month that you can take full advantage because the energy is easier. See, it's hard to change when the energies are tough. Of course, usually when the energies are tough, it forces us to change. But now we have the ease and the comfort to do what we need to do to promote, to grow, to make our lives much better.
So there's going to be a new moon August 8th. And this new moon occurs in cancer, but it's in the Nakshatra, Aslai. And Aslai is this powerful Nakshatra that deals specifically with power, energy and healing. So this symbol is a snake. And this in many cultures, the poison, the venom of the snake is in low doses, what heals in medicine. And actually the symbol within the healer's staff for medicine is the snake. So this power can be harnessed to be looking within ourselves, to work on every aspect of healing ourselves. We have been through so much with the coronavirus, then the lockdowns and everything is opening, our hearts are opening. But I do need to give you warning. This is temporary, so take full advantage. I'm actually very frightened about, but I'm not going to use that word. I'm very aware that when Mars goes into Virgo, there can be a resurgence of the virus. And when is that once again, Mars will be in Virgo between September 5 and October 22. I don't think it will last. It will be a spurt of fear around the world. But remember that I said, and I stand by this, by next March, mid March to April, there will be a healing with all of this. It will start to be.
In our rear view mirror and we need to move forward. So this is going to be a revolutionary month of transformational change. For the positive, this new moon is a serious one though. I have to say this because this new moon will be in cancer, but it's going to be oppose Saturn in Capricorn. And this can give a serious tone. Yes, but I think that this is what's building the hope that there's things to be done and there's ways to heal and there is going to be some new things that come into our world that open us. There's going to be major breakthroughs, probably in medicine, probably in space travel, as we've been seeing lately. And our consciousness, if we change our consciousness, we change the world. But that starts from within. And I'm going to give a little, a little exercise before this is over because I want everyone to take full advantage of this magnificent month. So around this month, Mercury will be opposing Jupiter as well as Mercury transits swiftly through the sign of Leo. And this will be a time for travel. Doors are going to open, airports are going to be canceling flights like they were during the Mars Saturn opposition last month. And everyone's ready, everyone's ready to move forward. So the full moon, as I said on the 27th, 2nd of August, will bring optimism and freedom because it is conjunct Jupiter and we have the sun in Leo. And Leo is all about creativity. I actually see because Venus is going to be opposed Neptune towards the around the third week or so, yes, this month. And Venus, Neptune is beauty, it's love, romance, but it also deals with creativity and film, cameras, movies, there's going to be so many creative things come out. New writings, new movies, new songs that bring joy into our lives, bring our joy back and not the fear. So around.
Around this full moon, be aware that there's going to be a change in attitudes all over the world. And one thing that I think is going to be opening up is a new way of consciousness. Now this may not be in the mainstream media, but it's going to be more and more in major videos that spirituality is the way to heal and meditation. The great gurus have always said if you change the way you breathe, you change your consciousness. But you may change the way you breathe temporarily for a few minutes and then you're going to go back to the way you're breathing before because when you're full of fear, you don't breathe deeply. And that might be one of the reasons why yoga and exercise eliminate fear, because you have to breathe deeply. And this is going to be.
A new concept, but heaven knows it's an old concept been around for eons. So.
This is the month for you to open to your new life. And what does that mean? That means you've got to let go of all the past conditioning. And there's so much of really does control everything that you do realize this, that your past is creating your future because you react on things based on experiences you've had in your. And it's time to let that go. The past cannot control you anymore. And the way that you're going to do this is every time an old memory comes up, one of those old memories of how someone hurt you, your resentments your fears, your judgments. You're going to remind yourself that this is not part of the new you. And you are going to eliminate that thought every time. This is called conscious awareness. When you become conscious and you become aware of your thoughts and what you've been doing to yourself for your whole life. And when you let this go, you're going to find a new freedom. Because now you can co create, you can create your life the way you want it. And this is what you have to do. You have to start visualizing what you want your life to look like. And you put it in the present moment as though you are living that life. When you live in the past, it controls your future. But if you live in the present, change those thoughts, it will be your future. The present will be the future. So you've got to focus in on the thoughts of being whole, complete and non judgmental. Because when we're in judgment, it's never going to create the life you want. Because when you're in judgment, you're in fear and you're judging others. And needless to say, you're blaming the world for conditions.
That your life is in. Now it's time to let go of those conditions. And when you do.
Take the time.
To still the mind. This is meditation. And to breathe deeply. And breathe deeply into all of the chakra energy centers. And for those of you that don't know what a chakra energy center is, it's those centers that are relative to your glandular functions. And these energy centers become blocked as we become ingrained with negativity. The past and it creates disease. So when you breathe, imagine that the breath goes through.
The core essence of your body. Then it comes to the solar plexus and the reproductive system and up to the heart. And hold that breath for a moment, give thanks and give a sense of love and appreciation for who you are and your life that then release it. And send that energy to the top of your head and to your pineal gland. Because that's the gland that will give you vision, insight. So continue to breathe the energy up through the spine into the head and visualize your life the way you want your life to be. And if you do this every day, five minutes and anytime negative thought comes into your mind, you go through this process of that breath work to alleviate that negative thought. Eventually your presence of what you're thinking will be your life. This is the truth. And this is the great awakening to the truth that we are here to do in this lifetime. We're all here to become conscious and aware of who we really are. And that is our connection to the divine. When you breathe into the heart, the heart center, and you bring it up from the heart to the head, this is where your divinity will rise. And you will feel the ecstatic connection to that divine being that is you. That is you. And all of the negativity, all of the fear, all of the judgment, all of the prejudice that this world is all consumed with right now will, Will not be a part of your life. And as you do this, this is going to be the positive energy that reflects outward from you and starts to heal this planet of the fear that the coronavirus is part of the fear that this planet has instigated together. And you have the ability, through your conscious awareness, your mind, your chakras, your energy centers, coming to a place of connecting to that unconditional love of all that is and is within you. And when you do this.
You will begin to transcend.
All the hurt, the pain, the resentment, the. That you have been locked into for your life. That's what life is about. That's what spiritual growth is about. This is moksha, spiritual liberation from this world. And this will help heal the world. Because if I could say this.
Once you come to that place of awareness and bliss, all you want to do, help others achieve that too. Because that is what unconditional love is about. And you will begin to help others heal their lives.
And nothing is more powerful and more healing than to see people wake up and realize they don't need to suffer anymore. And. And this world is a beautiful place.
That's my message this month of August, which August is not usually my favorite month based on the fact of how hot it usually gets in Texas here. But.
I think it's going to be a thrilling month if you use this powerful energy of.
The moon being with Jupiter and the sun being in Leo and the activation of this incredible star, Regulus, which is the open heart. This is so powerful.
