Transcript

Hello and welcome to Beyond Common Business Secrets Podcast

• I'm your host, Tracey Watts Cirino, and we have a fabulous, extraordinary guest here with us today, Joanne Angel, I am so excited that you are here, and I just wanna welcome you.
• You have from what I've done a little bit of research. Not much, you guys know, I like to keep this super organic. And it's actually so much more fun when I get to interview people that I only met through an introduction. Not that we know each other. So I have done a little research, and your business, and what you're doing seems absolutely amazing. So we want to welcome you. Welcome, Joanne.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 00:40
• Thank you so much for having me. I'm very excited to be here, and I'm very similar to you. I love organic conversations as opposed to having a whole list of questions that I know that's gonna be asked, because again, I play a big part with spirits.
• and I always believed that whatever spirit guides me to share is what's meant to be shared for the audience that's meant to hear what needs to be heard.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 01:03
• Oh, I love that, Joanne. Can you tell us a little bit about your business?
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 01:08
• Sure. Now, how long did we say the show is this way? I know exactly. How long is it.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 01:14
• It. It's flexible like.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 01:17
• Oh, good!
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 01:18
• I could never do a hard stop like that, because certain conversations end up going deeper. And we've even had conversations that we just broke up into a couple of episodes because it just went that way. So whatever you're feeling called, we we love and honor that here at beyond common coaching. So come on in.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 01:35
• There you go. So business name is holistic fitness, and why? And holistic is spelled with a W. And the reason why it's spelled with a W is to remind everyone specifically women of midlife.
• That I work with the whole person. What is the whole person? The whole person is their body, their mind, their emotions, and of course their spirit. So it's not just about coming to me to
• finish your dress or be able to get into a bikini. It's really about discovering who you are on a soul level, because I truly believe that's what's really important. We all know who we are on the surface which believe it or not, is not really who we are.
• When we take a deeper dive and understand who we are on a soul level, and then we become bold enough to show up. In that way life begins to change. So the concept of working with me at holistic fitness. And why is combining
• personal training, reiki, energy work, crystals, aromatherapy
• Chakra, balancing card readings, astrology, numerology, and that's probably just to name a few of the modalities that I blend together to help women in their life really take a deeper dive. My biggest passion is to help women get strong, and reminding them that weights are their friend, and we're hearing more and more and more that muscle is medicine.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 03:04
• Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 03:05
• And they'll leave it there for now.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 03:06
• I'm a big advocate for that women or that movement for women. It's good to have muscle. I love this.
• I love your synergy around the holistic with the W that like just made my soul tingle. And I, I think, is so needed right now because there is no surface answer right? It is the layers, and each one of your clients is probably so different in which one of the healing modalities they need. And I this. This just comes at such a.
• I would say, divine, perfect time. So many
• women that I, personally coach and that are part of my training programs. You know
• that we do a lot of stuff for business. But I always say, like.
• you're not doing it right. If your whole life doesn't get better. Right like you're not doing it right? So you're like leaving part of yourself at home.
• But so much comes up
• with the women that I serve in midlife around this body stuff. So I would love. You know. I'm just so grateful that you're here to help unpack this for women and and kind of like walk us through. What are some things that that we can do to get on this journey of
• like that spirit connection for our whole self? Right, because you're right. We've moved past like I mean, I still would like to look at naked. But I have a certain standard right that I've been dealing with since like
• being a teenager.
• However, I've moved into the fact that, like I just want to feel strong, I want to honor my power and my muscles right? So that is huge for women, and I would love to for you to like. Just unpack that more for us.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 04:56
• Well, one of my biggest topics right now, and many women in midlife
• are experiencing this. And it's called menopause.
• And it's such a big topic, and
• I'm all for the science behind it. There's a lot of science to support
• what every woman is experiencing or so they think they're experiencing. However, I like to bring the other side of the coin to the medical process behind menopause, and speak about
• the metaphysical explanation to menopause. Now we speak about the metaphysical meaning that it's connecting to who you are spiritually
• one of my favorite expressions are, we are spiritual beings, having multitudes of human experiences.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 05:41
• Yes, yes.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 05:43
• With that being said, understanding that you are having a spiritual
• evolution when you cross that chapter of menopause menopause. And this is actually something I'm actually thinking about writing a book on, so you'll hear it first.st
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 06:00
• We need to talk about this. Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 06:03
• Really about the gateway into your spiritual journey, because every symptom that women have in regards to menopause, and I'll just name one or 2 of them that are very common, such as hot flashes.
• and every woman theoretically has a hot flash, and right away they think, oh, it's menopause when we speak of spirit. When we speak of spirit communication, when you are connecting with spirit, your body temperature changes when that energy comes in, and that shows up as a hot flash where you literally will start to get hot because spirit is connecting with you.
• So one of the things that I started doing when working with women.
• is finding the common denominator in reference to when they were sitting in a space of connecting with spirit, or working on working on spirit communication. How they did get that that elevation in their temperature.
• and then explain to them that no, it's not a hot flash based on menopause. It's a hot flash based on the connection with spirit.
• and when we can take that
• and look at that side of the coin, we then take away the resistance, the stress
• and the overwhelmness that comes with
• knowing that. Oh.
• this is because I'm connecting with spirit. So once we eliminate the resistance, we then eliminate the XX weight.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 07:30
• Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 07:30
• They show up that again. For most women in quote unquote menopause.
• the extra weight shows up
• where they're thinking it's menopause, and that's just the resistance. In addition to the extra weight that may show up
• because we are going through a spiritual journey
• we take, we may bring on weight
• based on
• the chapter we are in in our lives. So if we are in a crisis chapter
• with that crisis, we may need to slow down a little bit. We may need to be more grounded, and to do that
• when you're slightly heavier in weight
• you may not be able to move as quickly.
• and that's the process of helping us to slow down, to become more centered and grounded and connected as opposed to again, because we're constantly connecting with spirit that we're not up in our 6th and 7th Chakra.
• so it brings us down to
• down to earth, so to speak.
• Then, in addition to the hot flashes. It's the bloat that we experience again back to the spirit communication. The bloat is just that water retention that we're holding on to now. I'm also going to bring in some astrology insight.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 08:52
• A lot.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 08:52
• Excuse me when we think about
• the moon.
• that beautiful moon that shines once a month for about 3 to 7 days.
• known also, and connected to our moon cycle.
• As I hit my late thirties, I realized, oh, the moon cycle is associated with our menstrual cycle.
• Excuse me.
• and the moon
• transits from one zodiac sign to another zodiac sign every 2 and a half days.
• So every 2 and a half days we may be moving out of a water sign into a fire, sign into a air, sign, into an earth sign or earth sign into an air sign, and that itself may very well create an emotional up and down.
• and if the moon happens to be in a water sign
• that creates extra water in our body.
• also, noting
• that the moon rules
• a water sign which is cancer.
• So right off the back again, based on your cycle. And again for those women in midlife you may be sitting back and saying, Well, I don't have a cycle anymore. So how does this apply to me?
• Well, just because you don't have a cycle anymore. You're still energetically connected to the moon's energy. And it's definitely going to impact how your body responds to the energy of that moon
• depending on your own moon cycle in itself, planetarily speaking.
• So when we think about metaphors, and then we take the planets into account, we take spirit into account. And then we start to really break down the metaphysical meanings behind any one of the medical symptoms that may show up, we can get a better understanding to like. Oh.
• so may not be menopause in regards to a medical
• issue. It may just very well be that. Oh, I'm exploring a spiritual journey, and how can I discover more about me, do this very thing that up until now I resisted
• because I've been programmed to believe that this is menopause, and that once I hit this certain age. This is what's going to happen to my body.
• A big part of this is working through the subconscious beliefs and breaking them apart
• now, very short story about myself
• regarding the moon cycle.
• I didn't get my Moon cycle until I was well into my in about 15 years old, which is pretty late for an average girl.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 11:32
• I think, yeah, I think I was like 11 or 12. So, yeah, so that's later, yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 11:37
• Exactly, and because I got my moon cycle when I was 15 in theory, means I should have my moon cycle well into my late fifties, because I got it late.
• No, little. Behold.
• we all remember the pandemic back in 2020.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 11:52
• Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 11:53
• That took place in March. Now my 50th birthday was on March 4, th literally. What was it? One week before we went into shutdown.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 12:01
• Yeah, my mom's birthday is March 16, th which was the day we were in for shutdown.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 12:08
• Exactly so on March 4th of 2020 was literally the last week, because I had my. I had my cycle for 3 days, and then it would be gone. It was the last time I had my cycle. My cycle has not returned.
• Now that I go through all these so-called symptoms that most of these women are talking about. No, no hot flashes, no bloat.
• no, no mood swings. And when again, when we talk about mood swings when we're connecting with spirit, and we're connecting with each other because we are energetic beings.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 12:42
• Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 12:43
• I related everything and anything that might have been related to menopause, to my spiritual journey.
• And I shared this today with passion.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 12:52
• Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 12:53
• To help women understand that. No.
• you don't need to experience menopause
• based on what the Medical Society has programmed us to believe.
• You could.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 13:05
• It was all based on male studies, anyway, like, that's.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 13:09
• Exactly.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 13:10
• Of it all.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 13:11
• Exactly. Well, look at, look at the name of it, men, or pause. Let's let's pause on men. Yeah.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 13:17
• It's so interesting what you're saying. I want to touch on this because I have never looked at it this way. So when in the early morning when I'm doing my meditation and my yoga practice, and and I do some
• walking meditation. I do different, you know, different modalities.
• I had never really thought about the fact that even when I sit and journal
• I will have a raised temperature, and I and it and I love what you're saying I
• I kind of use it as my space to connect with spirit, but I have never really thought about the the temperature rays, and that is such a great refame of like this is actually the gift.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 14:00
• Yes.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 14:00
• Yeah, so I love that.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 14:01
• Yes, yes, so so, as each woman
• goes down this path of what me? What we've been programmed to believe is menopause rather than think of it as a curse like oh, my God!
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 14:15
• Told it was a curse our whole life.
• I mean, we were told. I mean, I was raised that way like kind of believing that your monthly menstrual cycle was a curse. Yes, and it's just like it's it's a subconscious, because logically and rationally, I don't believe that.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 14:32
• Yes. Well.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 14:33
• If I don't bring it into awareness it that that story is definitely running an like a subliminal programming to where, you know, because I was told at some point as a child it was a curse.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 14:43
• Yes, and and that's a beautiful gateway into the next statement to this is that again, as children, because again, when girls do get their cycle for the 1st time. We're young, and the different stories we hear from our parents and our mothers heard from their mothers, and etc. Etc. The generational, so-called curse is that subconscious belief
• that this is what it's going to be. So then we hold on to this. Oh, my God, it's here!
• And and we just bring in such a denser energy. So course.
• there's gonna be
• the words I'm hearing is side effects and symptoms connected to our cycle.
• And then, because it's connected to the cycle, it's going to very well be connected to the next chapter of your life, which is known as perimenopause or menopause.
• because we've never healed the subconscious beliefs.
• stories that we heard from our mothers.
• they heard from their mothers.
• etc. Etc. So it's now out. It's now our time. Now we have the power. I share the wisdom
• for every woman from this moment on
• to share out to their daughters and their daughters and their daughters that know your moon cycle is not a curse.
• Your moon cycle is just what it is to be. If you wanna if you wanna celebrate it.
• celebrate it.
• If you want to just recognize that it's there. It's there. However, believe me, when I say I'm sure Tracy will agree. There are times when you are very excited to see that cycle show up.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 16:23
• Oh, yes, there's that.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 16:24
• Very excited. We're like, it's here!
• And then, once it's there, you're like, can I go now?
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 16:30
• Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 16:31
• So, bringing it back to you, to the whole concept of serving women and helping women to to really unravel
• the different stories that we've been told, and we've been programmed to be and conditioned to believe
• in regards to how we can transform.
• And because menopause right now is such a big topic. It's like, I don't think I've ever heard menopause spoken about as much as it's been spoken about in the last, maybe 2 or 3 years. It's like, is this like the big topic like, or is it just because I'm in that age category like what you know? What.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 17:08
• I I mean, I have a few beliefs on this, like my story is a little bit that you know, so we're all headed towards this bigger, divine, spiritual awakening.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 17:19
• So.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 17:19
• It's on the world's radar. But it's also right. Because I mean, I'm tech like it
• technically quote unquote. According to the doctors, I would be what's called the perimenopause. But I had a lot of crazy symptoms that were the opposite of what's supposed to happen like I was, I'm gonna share, so I always over share. But I was literally having my menstrual cycle for 28 days a month for 5 years.
• They're like, How are you not dead like it. Okay? Because so the thing is is that that had to be healed through deep work in a lot of different energetic healing modalities, like I became a certified shamanic practitioner. I there's just so many different things, because
• medical science had no answers for me.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 18:07
• Exactly.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 18:08
• And you know it is so. You have to work with it. Right? So it's not about saying it's bad, right? So I love this layers, because because this this is in the forefront, because this is what we're dealing with, right like we're coming back to
• listening to our true spirit, our true sense of self, and that's been missing.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 18:30
• Exactly, and what I love about what you just said regarding your cycle. A couple of things, the number 28 that you've had your cycle for 28 straight days now, bringing numerology into the conversation, and then we're going to also blend it back to astrology, the number 28. I'm going to break it down.
• The number 2 is about the relationship you have with yourself and your body, and how you value
• your relationship with your body and self. And again, let's face facts. When a young girl gets to a cycle
• she's not really a fond about her body at that point in time. There's a lot going on, mentally speaking, and that may very well carry on into teenage and adult years, etc.
• The number 8
• is about the experience, the abundance and bringing things back to balance
• is the number 8. Now, in astrology the number 8 is Scorpio energy, which is about the dark side of things. And that's really the energy of what women refer to as with their cycles and menopause, it's the dark side. And yes, it's this, the dark shadow work that we need to go through to get us to where we're going now, Tracy, you said
• perfectly with that 28 that you've gone to so many different doctors, and they could not come up with any explanation to why you were experiencing your cycle for 28 days. So what did you do? You went into where the number 28 gets added into 10,
• 1 0, a new way of healing working to understand you. So you've you were attracted to different types of healing modalities
• to get you to discover who you are. And this is the gateway.
• So when when women out there are going to their doctors, and your doctors cannot give them the answer, because
• we and I just said this this morning to a client, we put doctors on a high pedestal, expecting them to have the answers and the reality of it all is, they don't.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 20:28
• They're people just like us. They're people.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 20:31
• Exactly. We have the answer within us, because Tracy knew
• that she was
• call to take on these additional modalities so she can learn about herself. So we talk about that one
• being a new way of doing things so perfectly aligned to today's energy with the 1 1st house is all about self. Who am I?
• 1st house is also associated with Aries energy and the full moon. Today.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 20:58
• You know it's a perfect.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 20:59
• Moon is in Aries. Aries
• is also the full moon's also connected with Kaijuan right now, because Kaiwan, the wounded healer.
• Is an Aries, and the wounded healer is exactly that all of us, every one of us, men and women.
• or working through our wounds
• and working through those rules may mean that. Yes, there's going to be some sort of I like to call it ascension symptoms. Many people call it medical symptoms that show up in our physical body for us to become curious
• and wonder. Is there another way to approach this besides the medical way? And yes, the answer is the metaphysical way which is your spiritual journey that you are on to discover who you are.
• Now. The 0
• in that 10 is letting you know you have choices, and so many different ways of going about how you're gonna discover who you are. Now let's bring that one and 10 to one and 0 together, which brings it to 10.
• Now, in numerology, number 10 doesn't exist, because numbers go from one to 9, 1122, and 33,
• however.
• in astrology number 10 is very much associated with what's called Capricorn's energy.
• Capricorn. Right now
• we have Pluto transiting Capricorn. Now let's think back to 2,008, because the last time
• Pluto transit Capricorn was back in 2,008, right through 2023. So we have with that 16 or 18 year period, where
• Capricorn's energy was so strong. Capricorn is the very work
• we are here to do, whether it's your 3D. Work, your 9 to 5 job, or what I like to refer to as your soul's work. Now, your souls work is a big big package.
• and your soul's work is the very symptoms that show up in our physical body, giving us the different pathways, the journey that we go on so we can self discover
• now with Pluto
• transiting Capricorn right now for the very last time, as of November 19, th Pluto will transit out of Capricorn and move into Aquarius.
• This is our very last time we will ever experience a Pluto Capricorn transit. Pluto is about the transformation.
• Pluto is also about
• coming in and destroying what no longer serves our purpose.
• So, as we said earlier, as I said earlier, you know this big topic about menopause, and because so many women can be late. Yes, this is definitely the gateway to destroying the belief systems that we have wrapped around menopause and understanding that. Yes, we are all transforming. We are all evolving. And we are all here to do our souls work based on that Capricorn's energy.
• So when we think about Capricorn and Pluto and the 10th House, and everything else that's mixed into this bundle of joy, of energy. And we bring it into this menopausal conversation.
• It's no longer about the dreaded menopause. It's more now about. Wow! This is so damn exciting, because I'm on a spiritual journey to discover who I am, because, as I always like to say, as women in midlife transform boldly. They are strong enough, determined enough, powerful enough to want to be seen and heard, and that's when they transition
• out of their 3D.
• 9 to 5 jobs, and they become strong enough and powerful enough to want to step into their soul's purpose to what they came here to do. And they have that menopausal childhood story, moon, cycle story to very well talk about as their story, to encourage other women.
• And then, of course, that connection we all like to know that there's somebody else going through the same mystery we've gone through.
• you know, so.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 25:04
• We're that we're not alone.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 25:05
• Yeah, yeah.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 25:06
• Because we're not.
• That's why, when you were talking about the the elevated, the other piece of what you said earlier about the elevation of your body temperature that like when you're when you're having a deep, meaningful conversation in a group of friends like you get flushed, even if you're not one of the people drinking wine, because this energetic connection, so.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 25:26
• Exactly.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 25:26
• Love it like it's like we we kind of like, really need this. It's like,
• Nourishment doesn't come just from food.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 25:35
• That's it.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 25:36
• It doesn't.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 25:37
• That's a big point, too. I was actually saying that in a podcast. Yesterday, where we do need to pay attention to how we are fueling and feeding our bodies. It's not just about the food we eat. It's the information that we are taking in the conversations that we are listening to the conversations we're partaking in, because that's really fueling and feeding the energy that we are in. And we are all energetic beings we're all connected in.
• This is really literally the time of our lives, as Pluto transits out of Capricorn for the very last time.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 26:14
• More about that that like when you said 16 years that we were going through that I'm like thinking of, like the crazy work I did during that time, and then that you said it left. And now it's back for the final. And I was like, Wait, we need to dig into that. We need to know more, because I don't like whether people tuning in are astrology believers currently or not run your Astro chart because this is important. So, Joanne, can you dig into that a little bit.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 26:39
• Yes, I sure can. And yes, just like Tracy says it is important whether you believe in astrology or not. I myself believe that it's not about a belief
• your astrology is your GPS. It's like numerology. The 2 of them are brothers and sisters, and it doesn't matter which is which. I have heard somebody say, Well, which is one doesn't matter. There's nothing too much about that.
• It's your makeup. It's literally going to define your makeup. It's going to help you navigate through whatever it is you're going through. And just like Tracy said when I was talking about the dates date back to 2,008
• through 2023. Think back to that timeframe and literally write down on a piece of paper what was going on in your life? The the good things, and then the challenging things. Because again.
• as we're in this energy, and literally, we only have literally, like 30 days of this Pluto Capricorn energy left
• where you get to reflect on everything that has happened in your life in that period of time. What has transformed for you? What are you still working on, and what is going to be left behind? Because that's that Pluto Capricorn energy when Pluto is in any zodiac sign.
• Pluto's there to transform it.
• and whatever doesn't serve the energy
• at that point in time is going to be destroyed.
• and we all have Pluto on our Natal chart. Now, wherever Pluto is on your Natal chart, whatever house Pluto is in, and whatever sign Pluto is in that's going to give you
• the the the direction
• that this energy is taking you. So, for example, I happen to have Pluto in my
• 3rd house.
• and 3rd house is experience. 3rd house is learning, 3, rd house is education. 3rd house is speaking. 3rd house is travel. It's in Virgo.
• Now, Virgo is about organizing virgos to schedule virgos, also the physical body. So now, if you think about my Pluto and Virgo, and you think about what it is I do
• as my soul's purpose. I'm so perfectly aligned now. Always gets me going is the 3rd house the experience? It's like, oh, so what is Pluto
• working on transitioning for me, taking away from me? Now? If you and I would have been having this conversation
• back in 2,008, or even before 2,008. The words that are coming out of my mouth today would not be the same words coming out of my mouth. Then.
• because again, the transition of what I believed in back then, and all that I have come to learn spiritually speaking, on my spiritual journey.
• has transformed the way I do serve
• and support women
• due to that transformation
• in fact. Now, this is a podcast so unfortunately, your your viewers cannot see the background that's on my screen right now. But the background.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 29:47
• And then Youtube will be able to see that. So.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 29:49
• Yes.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 29:50
• So yeah, the video will be will be released, too.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 29:52
• So the background on my screen is my deck of cards.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 29:56
• Oh, fun!
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 29:58
• Which I created back in 2019. Now you would have asked me back in 2,006, or 2,005 or 2,004. When I create a deck of cards it was nowhere on my radar, at least in my conscious mind it was definitely on my radar, in in the higher
• realms of things. So we think about this Pluto Capricorn energy. It's really important to reflect back to that period of time, 2,008,
• right, through 2023.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 30:26
• Yeah.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 30:26
• And when you think about interesting information, 2,008, add that number up. It adds to 10.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 30:33
• Time. Yeah, it does.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 30:35
• 10. Now, when we think about 2023, because, of course, I didn't add it up. Let's see, what do we have? 5 plus 2. That's a 7. So
• it's our 10 energy where we start out and moves us through the time to our 7 energy year. The 7 is a spiritual journey.
• discovery, self-discovery. You're discovering you.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 30:59
• Yeah, last year was the 7. Right? Yeah. And last year was the 7 like numeral. Yeah. And it was my personal 7, too. So it was like a very a lot of work year like saying that, I'm like, Yeah, yeah, like, that's like.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 31:12
• Exactly exactly. And what I always say regarding the neurology is, there's 3 personal Energy year numbers that
• I always
• believed to be the most challenging years. And those 3 are the 5,
• the 7
• and the 9. And I'm going to add one more to this
• and the actual current year. So if someone holds the same personal energy year as the collective energy. So if someone has an 8 energy year, as their personal energy holds the same energy as the collective. They are going to have a more challenging year than most.
• Now let me just
• briefly explain the 5, 7 and 9 especially because Tracy here have yours is a 7 this year.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 32:01
• No. Last year, 2,023. It collectively. It was a 7 right and.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 32:06
• Yes. So you actually carry the same energy of the collective.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 32:11
• Yeah, well, it should.
• It's shifted this year, which is interesting.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 32:16
• Well, yeah, because now this year is an 8. So we'll shift. So let me explain just a little bit not to go too much in detail. But we're talking about the 5 energy year. The 5 is about change. It's freedom. It's unpredictability. It's being courageous enough to be willing to make changes so you can transform and move into the freedom. It's also about play and self-expression and just stepping into your sensuality. That's that 5 energy.
• The 7 energy is self discovery. 7. Is meditation. 7 is going within to look for the answers, and not going out. 7 is the time where you take on the courses. You look for those teachers and mentors that's gonna take you in and support you on whatever challenges and crises that you're going through
• the current year that we're in now, which is the 8 energy. And again, anyone who's carrying an 8 vibration. This is about the Karmic reset.
• This is about balance. It's about harmony. This is about your achievements, your success, your fame, your purpose.
• Now, when we talk about the 9, the 9 energy year, which is where we're going to next year
• is where we review the last 9 years of our life.
• It's a review of the last 9 years of our life before we begin the next new chapter, which is one.
• So those 3 energies I always find when I sit with with clients, that when they are in those specific
• energy years that they have the most challenges to go through, and also the most rewards they reap because they have the most challenges. It's a self-discovery period.
• Yeah, I.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 34:01
• I have found through the different years, like not even always knowing, you know, like I know these things now, but in luck in Russia, and looking back, that when I
• honored it and really allowed myself to go through the transformation, I was able to transmute a lot of wounds, and even, you know, collectively. But the years when I thought
• almost like it, was like an unconscious thought that, like
• I was in control when I was not right. That is like what it just like. Oh, it just got harder and harder. So it was like carrying barrels of bricks up a mountain alone, and then just falling back all the time.
• That's the the visual that I could say has been my experience. So I always
• teach, like, teach my clients that
• embrace. What is what is that big, scary thing that you're afraid of? And if we can embrace it with a little humor in a conversation, it's so much less resistance. Right? And then you know it. Just kind of helps diffuse it a little bit, giving you the power to really allow the transformation.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 35:11
• Exactly. And it's like you said before.
• when you're actually in, I like to use these 2 words, the crisis and the challenges.
• You're not going to be able to understand the lesson behind it, which is why we have opportunity to review
• that when you're when you, when you get through that year. The following year is when you have an opportunity to sit back and say, Oh, or maybe a few years down the road, like we're moving into this 9 energy year. We're gonna have plenty of time
• to reflect on the last 9 years of our lives and see. Oh, wow! Now
• the version of who we are. Right now.
• we are definitely not the same version of who we were then.
• We're very different. Even if we are not consciously aware that we are doing the spiritual work.
• We are
• even the unconscious process of it all. We are all shifting.
• Some of us who are doing the work are consciously shifting.
• Some of us were not quite aware that they're doing the work. The universe is shifting them either way.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 36:16
• Changes happening, whether you accept it and embrace it or not.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 36:20
• And that.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 36:21
• Choice.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 36:22
• And that is the very help that Pluto in Capricorn is supporting us with. And when we talk about Pluto and Capricorn, I also want to bring in Uranus and Taurus. Now Uranus is the planet of mishaps. It's the planet of of
• Chaos.
• It's the planet of
• the dark side. That's that's Uranus. Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius energy.
• So we think of if Uranus being in Taurus, which is this which is the opposition or the sister of of Scorpio, which is ruled by Pluto. It is really about the chaos that we experience through the relationships that we have with one another, because every person is just a reflection, and I know there's many people out there that get a little
• flustered by the fact on oh.
• there's no that person's not a reflection of me. Excuse me as I say. Yes, they are.
• There you are. Every person is a reflection of you, and whatever they're reflecting back at you is either going to be something you're going to be proud of, or something you need to work on, and that's just what it is. And then when we think of that Taurus energy, of the relationship with someone else, it's also the relationship we have with ourselves, our physical body, and also the relationship we have with money. And now money is a big thing, because I mean as humans, we make money such a big thing because it's like, oh, my God!
• But it's just energy. And when we can work through the wounds, because again, money is another wound that we have from childhood, and what we learned what we heard. If we can break through those subconscious wounds.
• we become unstoppable.
• I mean, literally, there's nothing that
• we can't have. We can have everything we want to have as long as we believe we can have it. And that's really what it comes down to is the belief system of feeling worthy
• enough of knowing that you know what I can have anything I want to have. Now, the question is, do I really want to have that?
• That is the big question.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 38:28
• Yes, yes, you are worthy of it all.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 38:31
• Exactly. There's absolutely nothing that you cannot have.
• absolutely nothing, you know, and I think the beauty of it is, once you do move through your spiritual evolution, you start really asking yourself, do I really need that?
• Do I really want that?
• Do I really want to have that? And you really start, because again, once you get into that space where, like, you know, you can have everything you start realizing like, you know, what? I don't need to have everything. I have everything I already need.
• and then you start simming down on all the desires. And you really start now, attracting what you really purposely are here to attract. And that's when things become easier, because you no longer have to put the work behind it.
• you know, and and coming back to menopause, which is such a funny thought in my head. We used the word men pause, men. The energy of men is that masculine energy. And what we're actually really doing. When we think about this, ladies is, think about it as we're pausing.
• we're pausing the masculine energy within us.
• So we can get to that space where we can open our hearts to receive more
• and be able to support the men out there, so they can be more in their masculine to give us, and then they open up their energy so they can receive our support as the leaders we are. And that's what menopause really is is pausing our masculine energy so we can open our hearts so we can receive.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 40:02
• I love that, and that has been so true in my journey, and my husband would absolutely agree like cause I I would say that, you know, in my thirties of starting businesses, and
• officially, as early as my late 20 I
• I was operating from a very masculine gotta do more work, everyone, and and that was very. It was like, I I look now. I didn't know it then, of course. Right? You said it was the crisis and challenges. I'm like, yeah, it was kind of like F bombs flying out of your mouth for me like, that's what it was like. And I it was like toxic masculine, and it's true. The more I
• slow down, embrace the changes, and tap into sort of the defined feminine. I am able to receive love in a way
• from my husband that I never I never was able to before. And it. Our relationship has really deepened in the past 5 years, I would say in in just such a beautiful way that it's really understanding the idea of the giving and the receiving where I'm like we got blessed to still get together somehow, even though
• of alignment. You know what I mean. So it's it's a really, really beautiful way to say that. And
• I feel, Joanne, we could talk about this all day. I feel like we need to do like just a a day a day workshop about this for our.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 41:30
• Oh, I'm I'm in! I'm in.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 41:32
• Putting that out there. But.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 41:34
• Dive in.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 41:34
• But what would what are like one or 2 things that people can do right now to. Really, you know, like they're they're just getting started with with kind of tapping into this.
• What's 1 or 2 things they can do to really tap into this energy right now.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 41:51
• Oh, 1st thing is
• connect with your body, and when I mean, connect with your body.
• I'm not saying, Go, take a walk.
• Walks are great. However, I want you to really embody your physical body.
• As mentioned before.
• one of the conscious beliefs that many of us have is this thing about investing, spending money.
• We spend money on so many different things in our days. We groceries cup of coffees, I mean.
• we spent like $10 on a frigging cup of coffee.
• so, rather than investing your money on a cup of coffee, invest your money on hiring me as a holistic personal trainer, so you can learn to embody your physical body, because the connection you have with your physical body and the transformation that you're going to experience.
• It's not just about the physical transformation where you start to see. Let's say your waistline shrink. It really is about taking the current weight that you have right now, and reshaping the weight, transforming the weight, so your body can look different, and once you make that connection with your physical body embodying your mind, your emotions.
• your spirit.
• you become unstoppable, because then you start to explore
• who you really are, and that is something you could. You literally can do right now. Today, you know at some point towards the end of this there's going to be a complimentary offer I have for everybody that can definitely take advantage of connecting with me, so I can help you move into that journey, because again, for midlife women
• muscle is medicine, and there was really absolutely no reason why
• you should not be connecting with your physical body to help your physical body become stronger. It really will help you move into that self-discovery of who you really are.
• and.
• as we say in Reiki, just for today, permit yourself to love the body you are in right now doesn't have to be perfect.
• Let go of conditions.
• and love yourself unconditionally.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 43:59
• Oh, I love that!
• I love that, and I am so excited for for people to get the opportunity to take advantage of working with you. I can drop the link to it in the show notes. Joanne, do you have any last words of wisdom, or anything else that you'd like to add, this has been amazing. I'm just excited. I can't wait to go dig out my astrology chart. I need to look to see what house my Pluto's in.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 44:24
• Yes.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 44:24
• And I know that so many people are going to be excited to have the opportunity to work with you. So thank you so much for being here and sharing your beautiful energy with us.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 44:33
• Yes, so the words of wisdom
• pull out my deck.
• Hi!
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 44:39
• Cannot wait.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 44:39
• That's cool.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 44:40
• Looks, amazing.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 44:40
• And see. What do we need to know? For today, as we are in this amazing full moon, Aries energy
• along with all the other envies surrounding it. What do we need to know for today
• such a perfect, perfect word to end this day with patience? Oops.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 44:57
• I love that patience.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 44:58
• It's professionally.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 44:59
• Herself.
• Joanne Angel BarryColon
• 45:00
• Exactly, because that's exactly what we need to bring in patience with self. Because again.
• as you move through
• this transformation.
• your spiritual journey.
• your chapter that you may be in in perimenopause or menopause, or maybe the young girls are listening to this. Maybe you're just starting your cycle.
• Be patient because everything that you're experiencing right now is exactly what you need to experience to get yourself where you're going.
• There's no need to try to rush. Don't try to get to the end of the book
• without reading everything. All the chapters are needed.
• The number here is 4 so perfectly aligned with the moon's energy, because the 4 is about the 4th house in astrology which is associated with cancer and cancer like mentioned, is your home meaning your family, your career.
• and your body. Now, once you actually get
• your body in order.
• and you start to really fall in love with your body.
• The relationships you have with family, and that could be blood related, or those you've inherited over the years
• become stronger and healthier because you fall in love with you, and then you begin to become this different version of you. And you. You just love everyone, and you're not concerned about
• what anyone else is thinking. You just love them them.
• and that will then transition over to your career. The more you love yourself, the happier you are in your relationships, your career, your soul's career will open up, and that 4 is representative of balance, bringing more balance into your life because you are now balanced. Now the color
• is green.
• very much associated with your heart center.
• So for those of us who are watching, whether you're watching on Youtube listening whatever. Now place your hand
• right on your heart center and place your other hand down by your belly.
• This is known as the Universal Hug
• at any given time, and usually what I ask people to do is to rub their hands together, and then gently separate their hands, to feel the energy bouncing back and forth. But I feel that the energy that we're holding right now is so powerful that we don't need to do all of that. We can literally just feel the sensation that's literally going through.
• And Reiki energy is all about helping to get the energy to start to move. So wherever you have stagnations or blocks going on in your external world, know that's that's what's going on in your physical body. So work each and every single day on clearing the energy focus on one area of your life. That may be a little chaotic right now.
• and whether they're seeing it as chaotic start, seeing it as wondering
• on what you're going to learn about yourself today. Apply patience
• into that recipe
• and know that everything is happening exactly the way it needs to happen
• and embrace the day. Just for today.
• Tracey Watts Cirino
• 48:09
