Welcome to Newport Living and Lifestyles
I’m Christon and joining me today is
Katie Annulli from KMA Organizing. Welcome.
Thank you
Also SIREN Women’s Cooperative member.
Yep
Welcome to La Sirena
Thank you, I appreciate it.
We are doing a series of boat interviews where we get to know some of the
SIREN members businesses and a little bit more on a personal level.
How exciting, tell us about your business.
I am a professional organizer. I have a residential side of my business as well as I work with small businesses.
I help people to organize their homes from kitchens, closets,
basements , garages, I help people with moves, purging and packing for a move
as well as unpacking and setting up their house when they get to their new place.
Then on the small business side I do bookkeeping, data based organizing,
digital files, processes, productivity, kind of just getting the business flowing
so that they’re in a good place and can run it more smoothly.
What about a home office?
Yeah , I definitely organize home offices too
You need a space where you feel comfortable going in to do your taxes, right?
Definitely, Yes
Thanks for sharing that with us
How can they find you?
My website is KMAOrganizing.com
I also have a Facebook as well as Instagram and they’re both
@KMAorganizing
Did this startup is a hobby or passion for you
or do you have other things that you get lost in ?
I do get very lost in organizing. I find it very fun and I often lose time with my clients.
Another hobby that I really do like lose time in is sewing.
I started to sew earlier this year and I really enjoy being able to make something. .
It’s a very detail-oriented hobby so I like it, it fits my personality.
You get sucked into it, Wow, well I have some dress ideas, maybe we can….
I don’t know if I am there yet.
Okay, so when did you move to Aquidneck Island?
I actually live in Warren but I’ve lived in Rhode Island for about a year and a half.
What is it that you like about Aquidneck Island?
I love the landscape, I moved to Rhode Island to be closer to the ocean
and I get to see the ocean every single day so I love that.
It is really beautiful, is it not
What is something that motivated you or pushed you out of your comfort zone?
I would say yoga. I’m a big yogee and and yoga has changed my life.
I’ve been practicing for about 10 years and it has taught me a lot of patience and
perseverance and through my breath, I’ve been able to get through a
lot of challenging situations off the mat.
I want to ask you so many more questions.
We SIREN’s have set a protocol with very SIRENista questions.
Did any women in the world help inspire you to become the person that you are today?
Yes, definitely, I have… it’s hard to think about just three women,
because there are a lot of people that really do inspire me.
I would say my mom first of all,
Yes, They always do, Its almost like an inside unspoken rule.
She did instill a love for order and organization in me.
She also is just so unselfishly loving and supportive and it’s really inspiring.
I’d say someone else Christa Ripa
who’s one of my clients, she’s a virtual client of mine. She has a branding and
marketing company in San Francisco and she has really taught me a lot about
building a business based on something that you’re passionate about and making
something you’re passionate about into a successful business.
Also balancing self-care and having fun as well as running a business so
she’s been very helpful to me.
Work hard , play Hard.
Then I’ll say Michelle Obama as my last one.
What about Michelle Obama?
She’s had a different upbringing than a lot of people and she’s been very
successful in our country obviously and supporting of President Obama.
Yeah, Definitely , did you read the book?
I did
It was really enlightening.
If you were going to go back in time and give yourself a nugget of advice when you were younger, what would it be?
I would say have more confidence in yourself and your ideas and
you can achieve what you put your mind to.
I love that. Thanks so much for joining us
Thank you
on La Sirena today and telling us your SIRE story.
Thank you for having me.
We will have to have you back in the near future and we look forward to seeing you on

That’s one ride, right?
One sail on one of the 12 meters in Newport.
Tell us a little bit about 12 Meters,
Where you’re located and your boats.
We’re down on Bowens Wharf. 12 Bowens Wharf
and we have a couple of America’s Cup boats. Colombia and Heritage.
whoever wins this will enjoy a fun sail on hopefully Columbia with me.
Have you ever been on one of the charters?
Yeah I have, actually that’s where I met Kevin years ago .
Certainly one of the best charters in Newport
when you want to get out for an afternoon or an evening.
Have you taken photos of the boats or with the boats?
Yeah they are also some of the most beautiful boats in the harbor for sure.
Certainly these old boats have the graceful lines that new boats just can’t quite match.
Yes, for sure, definitely had some of the most beautiful photos of Columbia.
I am looking around his gallery right now.
So if you want to see some pretty pictures of Columbia come in the gallery.
Do you have any crazy fun stories about your charters that you can actually say out loud?
We meet all types of people. We are on the water every day, we meet people from all walks of life.
When they get on the water it’s a great experience for them.
I have to say he’s been really super busy so it was really hard to put him down.
so we’re really happy to have 12 meters a part of our show today.
Thank you for having us.
Where can people find you on the website? Do they need to buy tickets in advance?
The website is 12MeterCharters.com
or you can come down, we have a little kiosk downtown.
You can buy a ticket there for a fun sail.
We do a lot of corporate events and team-building. We don’t just race on the boat.
We actually just won the 12 Meter World Championships.
Hurray! Congratulations!
Thank you!
That’s so exciting!
yeah I was a pretty extraordinary event.
How many 12 meters were there?
The biggest gathering of 12 meters ever in the US, there were 22
12 meters from all over the world.
Yeah and this was a really busy summer for all of sailing in Newport.
You can see one of the s-class photos behind us here.
We also had the s-class 100th anniversary here in Newport this summer,
which is actually what my new book is about, which my father wrote and I did the photography for.
The S-class was the Herreshoff S class was designed and built up in Bristol RI, Just near by here.
The boats were originally designed in 1919, there were
about a hundred boats built and roughly half of them still exist. We had
21 boats on the bay racing here. There were a few others that are in racing
condition but weren’t able to make it, but still it was extraordinary having so
many of these old boats still racing so competitively, you know, we talked about
racing, well certainly, you can see in the picture behind us that they are tight and still very competitive.
You really have amazing photos, how did you get started in the photography world.
I started in photography back in school.
I was always into out-door adventures and
wanted to be able to show the gorgeous scenery with all my friends and family, when I would come back.
I grew up sailing, so certainly I blame my parents for that aspect of it.
It’s nice to blame your parents for everything, you know, even our personal shortcomings.
Yeah and I’ve just taken it from there.
yeah that’s great
I just saw recently on Facebook that you’re with some really
extraordinary people including Annie Leibovitz.
It was quite an extraordinary event, Greta Thunberg, who is an environmental activist from Sweden was
coming across the Atlantic with Team Milizia which is IMOCA 60 ocean racing team.
They brought her and they sailed her across the Atlantic because
she didn’t want to have the environmental impact of flying in an airplane.
You know, of course, that is also a great media for sailing and promotion of sailing
having her come on this boat. Quantum Sails also sponsored this team and they just
arrived. With the wind of course, you never know when the transatlantic
crossing boat sail boat is going to arrive and they came in late Tuesday
into New York and it was pretty extraordinary to see her and all the
fanfare in New York Harbor, even even despite that lousy weather and then
Annie Leibovitz was out there making a portrait of her as well, so we
got to hang out with her in the morning and it was it was quite a special day.
Where can people find your artwork?
My website CorySilken.com
You can also look for @silkenphotography on Facebook and at @silkenphoto on Istagram.
It’s really fantastic, so you mostly focus in the sailing community?
Mostly yachts, although I do shoot some portraits and some interiors as well.
My work with a number of regatta sponsors and shipyards and private yacht owners and
do some book projects and of course fine art as well around yachting and local scenery.
Cory’s chosen five photos or eight photos? How many photos did you choose today?
We have 8 photos from the Newport Living and Lifestyles photo contest.
We’re gonna take a look at them and hopefully
you’ve chosen the winner so stay tuned to the end and find out who the big winner is!
This first one is a neat shot from @Kara_Ann322
It’s a photograph of the reflection of the bridge at sunset or sunrise and some sunglasses on the beach.
The bridge is very popular, yeah wow, I love the colors in this, almost opalescent, iridescent, fairyland like.
What do you like about it?
I just like the picture.
I just like it.
I like it a lot.
And that’s how you should view photography,
if it’s something that you like, there’s there’s no more rationale needed.
If you like it, you like it, and that’s good enough, that is certainly a lot of my
customers here in the gallery. Something that when you connect with it , that’s that’s all you need to know.
She had 131 likes on this, so that’s great, good job.
Yeah and the next one is from @AnnM816 which is a photograph of bird.
It’s a hummingbird.
A hummingbird, yes.
Gorgeous colors.
Wow, that’s beautiful.
wow it’s so just clear.
Yeah it’s a very crisp image and very very nice with the
pink against the green background. There must have been some other trees
or bushes behind it. Yeah it’s very pretty.
and it’s hard to choose and narrow it down to 10, We have some really great local photographers and
just people with even with their iPhones, so this is, this is not an easy feat,
that’s why I bring in the judge photographers.
Yes and the next one that we have here is from @TimNewportRI and
it’s photograph of Newport Harbor with
some of the rocks in the foreground and it’s a really pretty shot.
Yeah gorgeous the reflection I just love the way the ocean here really picks up on pinks and
The pastels in the clouds and just the curve of the cloud
in the sky really brings your eye into the image very nicely.
I like it.
He likes it, “Mikey Likes It”
The next one is from @JMich78photography which is a
photograph of some poppies in a field with some cloudy sky in the background.
It’s really nice. I think the color of the sky, the kind of blue gray, as it goes
against the bright yellow of the flowers, sunflowers.
It’s a really nice contrast and I’ve seen a lot of these ominous clouds here a lot lately.
Do you like it?
Of course I like it.
Sunflowers are so cool
It’s going to b the ongoing theme of every picture now.
It is.
Alright and and the next one is from @SailOnHopeSan and of course it wouldn’t be very
good if we didn’t have any pictures of boats in here. This is a great
picture of a boat in the fog, with I’m assuming, that’s the sun trying to break
through the background, which is a scene we’ve seen all too often this summer in Newport.
Right Fog.
and you know they won laughs last month too!
Oh did they? okay
Oh yeah! Patrick and Monica, they charter “Hope San”, their sailboat.
They always get really great photos out on the water.
Here we have one from @l_Double
I really like his work a lot.
Reaching into the sun of the road.
Lee Abney has really fantastic stuff you can always, always know when it’s his picture. It’s really unique.
Yeah, you’ll have to check some of his stuff out. Nice work Lee.
230 Likes, that is a lot! Good job
The next one is from @DMN-images
It’s kind of a neat shot at the beach with
some glow sticks I guess.
Do we have rave parties here that I’m not aware of?
Right?
Are you guys going to the rave parties?
Ya know, at 4AM you never know what’s gonna happen.
That’s true.
I don’t think that one was quite a 4AM
A neat shot nonetheless,
Nice creativity in this bunch of images.
DMN_Images, 107 likes, 3 days ago. Good work.
Then this next one which is which is my favorite.
Oh could this possibly be the winner? this is it?
This is the winner! drum roll….
@Anastasia_M_Arnold
Anastasia!
It’s a shot at the beach, with the lifeguard tower and a surfboard and a
group of presumably either surfers or lifeguards more likey.
It’s framed really nicely. It’s got a nice mood to it and just nice muted
color for the scene which works really well with it.
Makes it pop.
A little bit misty on the water.
I love what she says here. What does she say
Stand 5 is my hangout place. I’ve
never enjoyed the beach as much this summer as before, so peaceful.
Congratulations Anastasia Arnold.
Congratulations, great photo.
You can come on down to Cory Silken
store located at 518 Thames Street.
518 Thames Street and collect your bottle of bubbly and you’re sailing tour.
We’ll get a really fun photo with you, right guys?
Yeah absolutely, can’t wait to meet you.

Welcome to Newport Living and Lifestyles
I’m Christon and we are here at the Hotel Viking on the patio at One Bellevue,
for a special event
“Canines and Cocktails”
that Laurie Ruttenberg has put together
I would love for you to introduce your ideas and yourselves
Tell us all about this really special dog friendly event.
Sure! Thank you Christon.
I’m here with Kim Cipolla of Eye to Eye Dog Training.
Kim and I actually came up with this idea and the lovely Hotel Viking is hosting for us today.
What we are going to be doing today is a cafe manners class called
“Cocktails and Commands” and Kim is gonna be taking us through ways to make our
dogs behave a little bit better when we want to take them out and just enjoy you
know a patio dining experience.
Sounds good to me!
because they are so food frenzied, right?
so are you gonna help with how to make the dog unfrenzied somehow?
A little bit, I mean everyone’s dogs are such big parts of our lives now.
Everyone wants to take their dogs everywhere.
We want to keep them safe. We want everyone to have a great time.
That’s really the idea with this class,
is so that you can take your dog somewhere and
know it’s going to be a relaxed experience and not stressful for anyone.
How to keep them calm around distractions and exciting things,
like food, and other dogs and people.
Some dogs just think that they should meet everyone.
We also want them to have manners, so that is the idea.
That’s true, just like children!
Maybe one day in the near future we’ll be able to take a dog to the grocery store?
I see dogs in the grocery store all the time!
What? I got a know these grocery stores !
We look forward to the training. How many people are you guys expecting to see at this training?
I think we have about 40 today, so we are looking at about 40 dogs and their “Pawrents”.
Here to learn some manners.
thank you so much ladies I look forward to seeing more about your training.
Thank you!
Thanks for coming, my name is Laurie Ruttenberg and I own Lucky Dog Resort.
A luxury dog resort and daycare social club in Middletown Rhode Island.
First I would like to thank the Hotel Viking for hosting this. It is such a beautiful place.
Kim, I’ve known for years now. Kim has been working with their dogs and their humans for 10 years,
and has extensive experience with all kinds of dogs,
all kinds of sizes, temperaments, etcetera.
Her focus and I’ve seen her do this
is on developing the relationship between the dog and their handler
through the use of clear and consistent cues and body language.
She emphasizes rewarding good behavior and
here’s the key everybody,
ignoring bad behavior,
by redirecting those undesirable behaviors
Kim shows us all how to communicate with our dogs effectively through this type
of communication so it can help achieve our goals.
When things start to get crazy or you see a parade of dogs coming the street
start with your attention queue.
Until your dog is focused on you
it’s gonna be hard for them to hear or pay attention to any thing else that you signal to them.
The way we hold our leash makes a huge difference to how we’re communicating with our dog
If we have it wrapped really tight and we’re holding it up high,
we are sending a lot of tension down the leash and as soon as we do that
our dogs go into alert mode. What’s gonna happen? They’re on alert.
Instead we can signal to them, nope we’re just going for a stroll, by keeping
our arm nice and straight and holding it close to them
to signal to them they can stay close without being stressed out.
Especially here in a patio, right ?
We need to maneuver some tight spaces so
they can be next to us, but be very calm.
Has everybody gotten a little blue ticket
and filled it out and had us take the other one? yes? okay great !
Let me tell you about the prizes that you could win today.
The first is a private training session with you and your pup with
Kim Cipolla of Eye to Eye Dog Training at Lucky Dog Resort, That is a $100 dollar value!
The second one is taking all those skills that you learned here today and
coming to have dinner with your pup on Hotel Viking at One Bellevue also $100 value and
Then lastly the top dog prize here for tonight so if you get it consider yourself lucky,
Consider yourself lucky if you get any of these prizes!
A pet photography gift certificate with Koren worth $575.

Welcome to Newport Living and Lifestyles I’m Christon and today we are going to be
hosting the Virgo horoscope timeframe and joining us today is Karen Chabot
the astrologist and birthday boy Nick Liuzza. Welcome.
Thank you Christon, glad to be here.
Tell us a little bit about your business.
You should know right,
because Linear Title was a company you worked for back in the day and she was a great employee!
This is my boss, my old boss, by the way.
Great guy, Great guy.
Company was sold and so now formed a. new company.
Shhhhhhh don’t tell anyone… It’s called Bee Line..
coming soon
Okay, Don’t tell anyone…
Come soon to Newport Rhode Island.
Can you say anything about the company?
It’s in the financial services mortgage space.
That’s different for you.
Yeah it’ll be different, it’ll be fun.
It’ll be a lot like Linear Title and it’s gonna be a fun ride, maybe you’ll join again!
Maybe!
Okay good !
How is it gonna be different than maybe than some other ventures?
In the past I’ve always been more of
you know b2b and this is more b2c, so it’s more you know, it’s gonna be more
on that side of the world.
You’re also very techy, so everything is very…
Techy, does that mean geeky? Did you call me a geeky?
I am calling him a geek
I like to think I am a cool geek, I am a cool geek.
He is a cool geek.
Alright, thank you.
Most of your businesses have been very streamlined and very tech forward,
so I assume this one might be as well.
Yeah, in the past we took sort of like
manual processes and automated them in the financial services space and this
business will be very similar to that, except it’s more consumer focused.
We look forward to this.
Again, Please everybody, don’t tell anyone.
Are you ready to hear about the Virgo astrology ?
I can’t wait.
What is the time frame?
It is the 23rd to the 22nd
Of this month, so it was yesterday, or was it or two days ago ?
Well let’s just stick with the dates, because I don’t know when they’ll be watching.
oh, that’s right.
For 2019, August 23rd to September 22nd
Okay perfect perfect perfect.
I’m Karen Chabot and I have a website if you want to check it out.
www.KarynMahrieChabot.com and I’m an astrologer, I’m an ayurvedic health
practitioner and licensed massage therapist and I just bought an “Angel of Water”
I need a massage right now.
I have an “Angel of Water” colonic system I just bought too, so I’m really excited about that.
Okay, wait. what.
I am doing a lot of stuff here, because I just have a lot of passions. So the angel of water is a colon hydrotherapy FDA medical
device where it flushes out the colon, non-invasive, very easy and it’s aligned
with ayurvedic medicine. So yes when there’s a potato in the tailpipe the car won’t go!
I have got to leave this….
Is that your slogan?
That’s my tag line!
Omygosh, this is hilarious, I think we both turned beet red.
Potato in the pipe. P squared.
Who would have thunk, right?
There is nobody in Newport doing it, but me
So now you know where to go!
What are some characteristics of a Virgo?
Back to Virgos
Back to you!
I don’t have a potato in the pipeline
Actually Virgos are all about getting rid of the potato and the tailpipe, because there is a purification.
They’re very purity oriented so they like everything to be
pristine clean and tidy and maybe…. and this isn’t just for Virgo and I’m doing
tropical zodiac by the way, for any astrologers watching, even though I do
sidereal as well, this is tropical.
Thanks for clarifying.
He’s a Virgo Sun and so if you have a lot of Virgo in your chart wherever it
may be your moon or your ascendant this applies to you as well, and basically I
give a lot of information that applies to the general public, but for Virgo,
Virgo’s tend to really like to critique things, so they’re pure minded, pure hearted…
I think your doing a really good by the way, you doing a great job, this is really going well, yes.
Okay, well they make great food critics and great movie critics because they have an analytical
mind because mercury governs your chart so mercury is the planet of the intellect.
So instead of criticizing your spouse
and other people. You should be criticizing food and movies so you can
help the masses, right ? So you use your gift in a positive way.
Gotcha, You kind of left out the part about Virgo’s always been right.
They like to think that so you can go ahead and think that.
If that helps , I say go for it.
and clever . Yes clever and funny.
They’re also great lawyers and judges because of their judgmental, fair, analytical mind.
They can see the whole picture, very clearly
and the details jump out, where some other people might not see exactly what you see.
Those are good little ….. If you’re a lost Virgo and don’t know what you want
to do for your life, these are some things you can do.
Some direction.
Food critic, you said, judge, lawyer…
or running a ginormous business like yourself.
ooohh, that’s be cool.
Shhhh,… shhhh…..
On the other hand, they not only are great judges, lawyers and
mediators, but they’re also great holistic health practitioners, believe it or not.
You mean about the pipe in the pot or what was it?
Potato in the tailpipe, they might like a profession like that.
Yes actually, a lot of them probably are in profession like.
We’re gonna keep going back around to this, I think.
Anyway, so, if you want to do something besides law and food criticizing, or
movie critic stuff, you could go into the fields of alternative healing easy,
because that is a forte of Virgo.
I think I’m changing my business model right now.
Your gonna have massage on site.
yeah, good ideas… yeah, yep I want to do more piping.
Let’s talk about the symbol of Virgo. It’s symbol is the Virgin and
basically it’s not about anything sexual. It’s about purity, which is what virgins represent.
oh okay, cuz you know where our mind went.
Of course, right?! and also
its element is earth, it’s quality is fixed, and its color is green and it’s stone is emerald.
Do you find yourself surrounding yourself with these colors?
Yes, I like blue and emerald, for sure.
If you wear green it will give you strength.
mmm that’s good to know.
I can just see him now with a big o velvet king hat with the fuzzy and cape.
Sorry…
Its okay, I’m visualizing that.
So, right now what’s going on for love in
Virgo for the next 30 days or so, actually a little bit longer than that…
but if we focus on this month, we have Neptune in the 7th house which
governs relationships. So with Neptune transiting your seventh house,
it can cause delusion and smoke and mirrors, and a little , sometimes, big
deception involved. Now if we take the bright side of Neptune, it’s very dreamy and romantic.
So this is our month?
Well I’m just looking at this month, what I did was a prashna what they call “of the moment”.
I did a Virgo chart, and I read that moment, it was the 23rd yesterday.
and then from there, I pull this information, and Neptune was in the seventh house yesterday.
That’s cool
yes, in the prashna.
prashna , just means, question of the moment.
I’d like to say, that if you’re experiencing something dreamy and romantic that’s great.
If you’re experiencing something where you think someone’s being deceptive and you’re not sure, your hunches could be true, It could be right.
It’s something to think about.
So go with your gut.
Trust your instincts.
Go with your gut, hopefully it’s playing
out in the more dreamy and romantic side, and not the deception side.
Gotcha.
Now, also, we have the Sun sitting in the same house
as the passion planets, so now we’re talking about love and the passion
planets, govern love, Mars and Venus. When Mars and Venus and the Sun all sit in the same house,
What happens to Mars and Venus, if they become combust?
They can’t support, our life, basically, they burn up
so, what happens when Venus and Mars go combust?
In relationships it can either cause a relationship to be really fiery, feisty, and passionate, and fun, and lively or
Or? or…..
it can end the deal.
oh wow. Implode.
The Sun is a purifying planet.
So there is no in between? It’s like really good or really bad!
That is the thing here that I am trying to get across, it is not going to be this harmonious….
So there’s a fine line between it being great and it really sucking completely, huh?
Yes, It is very extreme right now and how it’s going to play out is depending on your freewill,
and as well as your own personal chart. Right now in the cosmos the passion
planets are on fire.
So how you work with that fire is up to you.
I have some ideas…
Can I ask you a question, how long was it fire going to go? a week, 2 days?
It’s starts to alleviate around the 14th but then they kind of dance back and forth into the next house,
so actually Venus and Mars go combust back and forth all the way until November.
ok good to know, good to know…
Good to know! So this is actually, not a punishment
it’s actually, if you look at it, in divine order , it’s a time and an
opportunity to purify a toxic relationship that no longer serves you.
The Sun comes in, burns it out, shines the light on it, so that you have to look at it.
It’s going to be so in-your-face that you have to make a decision so you
no longer stay stuck in toxic relationships, or it’s there to give you
a new relationship and ignite the passion.
So which way it goes is going to be personal.
This is so much more fun reading that little clip in the newspaper. About your sign.
So much better! I am getting this!
Sorry newspapers….
Here are some ways to get the passion planets to support you and play out your passions, so here we go
Be extra kind to all females, open doors for them, smile at them, forgive them and take your best girlfriend out to dinner just because.
Why I’m doing this is not just random good juju things.
It’s because Venus governs women, not only love, but it governs women.
So you’re not just making it up, there’s a method.
No I am not just making it up yeah this is truly these are ancient Shastras and the
ancient texts of remedial measures they call ‘Upayas” and I’m pulling it right from the texts.
Say that three times fast…
Donate to art museums and artistic venues because Venus not only
governs women, love, but it also governs beauty in the arts, so indulge in the
arts and donate to them. Do charitable things, if you want to donate your time
or donate your money or immerse yourself in the arts.
Cause that’s gonna make you feel better? or is it gonna make…. why?
It makes Venus smile down upon you when you
do Venusian and activities. It actually opens a portal and Venus can just shine its juju down.
It gives you more light.
You’re a big supporter of local charities. The Newport Art Museum.
My wife is on the board.
Oh that’s a great thing!
Yeah they are always looking for volunteers at the Newport Art Museum, to do those still poses.
Oh yes we did that.
If you want to do that, that would be a great thing to help your love life, believe it or not, indirectly.
What else? immerse yourself in creative projects in the serenity of nature,
so go somewhere beautiful.
Not just any old park, but go to a bee-utiful park, a very Venusian Park, we’ll call it.
Can I get my Webster dictionary out, wait, what did you say? Venu…
Venusian is your new word of the day.
It means that it is descriptive of Venus.
Something that Venus would be smiling down upon, like a beautiful place.
We have a lot of mansion parks.
Yeah go to a beautiful place.
It’s beautiful here, it’s gorgeous.
And beautiful flesh flowers, flesh flowers….
say that five times fast….
Fresh flowers! by your computer !
OH… I was like… what are flesh flowers….
And avoid sour tasting foods like lemon, limes, pickles and vinegar’s.
Why? because the sour quality governs Venus and it can throw you off, if you’re a pickle lover.
Well everyone of my vodka / soda’s has lemon and lime! so I got to switch it to something else.
Or don’t drink! Fat chance!
Keep it in check, in other words, you can have a pickle every now and then. Just during this time.
Question, Is this advice just for Virgos or for anyone?
Anyone right now, but especially Virgo, because I did a Virgo pressna.
Okay so stretch on a foam roller
and open your arms over your head. so you know those big foam rollers at the gym
and you stretch on them? You can open your heart up, because you want to open
the heart, because the Venus also will shine down on the heart, and you know
more love , more better, so opening the heart.
Mo better…. We’re about to sing a reggae song right now.
and keep cool because Sun is burning up those two
planets and we want to stay cool with certain foods not just our mind and
surrounding ourselves in air-conditioning but also eating cooling
foods like cucumbers, cilantro and avocado salad.
Wouldn’t that be a yummy right now with a little olive oil and salt?
Yes, with all of them together.
Well no lime and lemon..
Well maybe just a little.
Ok, now what’s going on with money? Let’s go into the money.
Most important piece.
Yes, so Jupiter and Venus are the planets that govern money.
Remember I told you that Venus and Mars govern love while Jupiter is the bank
and Venus gives you the opulence that money provides.
Those two planets we’re looking at right now, for what is happening with money.
Since Venus is so close to the Sun literally sitting in the same house,
Venus isn’t gonna help us right now.
ok so that’s ok we got Jupiter and Jupiter
is going to support us, and it has station direct on August 12, so
everything is starting to go, systems go, which is good, green light.
It was a little bit held back for about 3 or 4 months prior to that.
Yes so what’s gonna happen here with Venus stationing direct and for Virgos?
It’s a great time actually for transformations and financial
institutions and the state of affairs regarding the stock market and
investments in all the US dollar.
Hold it, hold it , hold it… that’s really interesting because my new company is going through a financial transaction right now.
There ya go!
This is the perfect month for that, right?
This is Perfect.
How’d that happen? It’s just coincidence, I guess, right ?
It is meant to be.
That is really interesting.
You sort of wrote for it.
Cheers! That sort of blew my mind a little bit.
Did you know that?!
No, I don’t even know you !
We just met !
I know you now!
You better drink that, if you cheers, you gotta drink, good luck.
So let me continue before I lose my train of thought.
okay so the changes might be a pinch at first but what may unfold is gonna be
for the world’s highest and best so not just personally but globally what’s
happening here is there’s gonna be a change in the financial picture because
Are you saying that China deals gonna get worked out?
It could actually, it could…
We can’t foresee the future, but we could use some astrological facts.
We do have Rahu in the eleventh house of charitable gaines.
Which is Rahu is the foreigner so foreign money is good right for Virgo.
That is very interesting.
Yes so something good would come from that.
Moving on, oh I forgot to say twelve away from where Jupiter sitting are the
malefic planets of Saturn k2 and Pluto which means that the US dollar and a
financial Institute’s like banks all over the world can go through a radical
change right now this is interesting watch.
That is interesting.
because twelve away usually means endings so what endings on what whatever
is twelve away it’s the bank Jupiter hmm okay so what can we do for
Jupiter to smile down upon us and give us more money. Here we go,
Donate to the Boston Children’s Hospital, why? because Jupiter governs children.
Offer or help teach children.
Help out at a soup kitchen, because Jupiter also governs selfless service.
yeah this is good stuff here, this advice you’re giving right now, is good.
Yes yeah it’s all good stuff, I mean you don’t have to go do any mantras and
hooga booga stuff, you just go do.
Hooga Booga. Hooga Booga
Hooga Booga, The official term, actually, by the way.
It’s an official zodiac term.
Clean out your closets and donate to Goodwill because you’re
donating, any donating and charitable stuff doing it right now, is a good time
for more money to come into your life, because what you give comes back to you.
That goes through September 14th, by the way or through the whole month of September ?
Through the whole month of September and even a little further,
because I think Jupiter is actually changing around November.
So all the way through to November.
I’m guessing now, now I’m forgetting, but I think its November.
Be of service to one of your high school teachers your
favorite college professor, just maybe write them a note, even just say thank
you, I really want you to know I enjoyed that year with you, just something nice,
because Jupiter also governs the Guru or the great teacher.
Jupiter’s busy man. money… he is got a lot going on…
Children, gurus, banks…
We thought we were busy!
it is governing a lot of stuff.
okay and handicapped people
sometimes you’re just in a rush, and you don’t want to help that handicapped
person across the street, this is your time to do it.
Just pick them up pick up and carry them across the street.
Open doors for them
Piggy back.
What’s going on with career in the Virgo chart so mercury is the ruler of your
chart it’s igniting your tenth house of career and it also is igniting the 12th
house of International Affairs which also is a house of liberated endings so
yes you could get that money that money from international China the China money
could come in still because it’s international but it’s also a house of
endings.
It’s bizarre because I got to tell you so I’m involved in a financial transaction right now that’s Canadian.
Oh interesting.
Yeah that’s weird. Yeah it’s a totally separate from the Bee Line thing. That’s weird.
Your not usually involved in international deals?
I never get involved in international stuff. And one’s going on right now too.
yeah this is your time right now.
This is good stuff right here. Did you prepare for this?
It took me 2 hours! I love it though !
I am a hidden geek. I am a little secret geek.
I am surrounded.
Virgos could focus on foreign relations, dreaminess, creative productions, but also
give their resignations since we have something igniting the twelfth house
there could be, in jobs, a resignation that is for the highest and best for
your liberation, so it’s not a doom and gloom resignation, kind
of thing, but it’s a time for endings, purifications.
All good stuff and new beginnings. so a good time to begin a new so if
you’re thinking of leaving your job this could be the time, if you’re thinking of
a new job, and what do I do, and when do I do it? Well the new moon is a great time
to really just start on it. Looking in the newspapers, listening for signs and
that new moon is happening on August 30th, so if you want something new
in your career, even expansion in your career, which could happen now, as well,
because Jupiter’s expecting into that house, then here are some things you
can do for the moon, because the moon, I saw was sitting in the tenth house
when I pull the prashna. Let’s do some things for the moon, what’s the moon, moon
governs mother, call your mom and tell her you love her,
bake her some cookies, tell your grandmother you love her, any mother like authority
figures, if you have a female boss, bring them their favorite cappuccino
or latte, just just as much goodness as you can toward females in authority
figures, or nourishing type of females, if you have a friend that sort of like a
mother to you, she was always there for you, that you could be nice to her as well.
Practice self-care and be your own mother, so a great thing to do is
schedule a massage, go for your walk, do your yoga , do whatever it is that makes
you feel nurtured and supported and loved.
What do you do to nurture yourself?
I walk. I like walking.
Clears your brain.
I can moon walk really well too.
That I should have included , a moon walk, do your moon walking. That’s a great idea.
When you moon walk 4 miles, it gets a little tiring.
You have amazing calves though, I bet.
That is so funny, okay, so moon also
governs the ocean, so what do you want to do for the ocean? why not donate to
charities that are involved with cleaning up the ocean and the beaches.
Go for a daily swim just to immerse yourself in the ocean and be so
grateful to be surrounded by the ocean.
OOO cold. They have wetsuits.
I’m from Louisiana man, we don’t get in the water here.
I’m from Texas, I get it.
There’s one day at one day, September 30th
Are you kidding me, I live here! I have to get in every day.
We would need a wetsuite.
A wet suit? oh you guys are too funny .
Alright so there’s two more things you can do for the moon and to propitiate new ideas for your career.
Nourish your family with a sumptuous meal at least one this month
find it like whatever that recipe is their favorite meal and make it sumptuous.
And then be more loving and forgiving in general. Just embody that.
And that’s it!
That is great stuff! That is really good.
