Anya discusses the current Venus retrograde and the feminine, slowing-down energy, offers journaling prompts and gentle movement ideas like walks or sitting by water, and references sound baths, breathwork and energy work.
Happy Sunday. Little me time. Bringing in some of the energy vibes today. Also got major with me today. Not a good still person. So today on our Sunday afternoon session, and thank you for adjusting.
Anna Kendrick: How are you this beautiful Sunday? She wants to talk about the energy that we're experiencing. If you are experiencing, like, what kind of energy are you experiencing right now?
Anya: On Sunday, today, energy, I wanted to talk to you guys to see how you're feeling. Venus, the planet, went into retrograde. It's a period of time to focus on slowing down, it's a very feminine energy. Spring cleaning, new paths, fresh starts.
This season is about letting go of that past version of you. Now is the time to make some hard decisions. Take a day trip, go on a hike, go for a walk, sit by some water and journal. It's a beautiful time to allow yourself to evolve.
Cadre Team family is so proud of you for showing up. I hope you have a great day. I'll be here tomorrow morning for professional development. Have the best day. See you soon.
Happy Sunday. We're here. Little me time. Bringing in some of the energy vibes today. Also got major with me today. Major. Sit. He says. Hello, hello, hello. Just hold on for a second. Create some space while everybody clicks on in for this sunny Sunday afternoon. Also realize I'm not a good stander. I'm standing, waiting a little longer than I meant to be, and I move a lot. Anyone else, when they stand, can you stand still? Not a good still person. I always have some energy, some movement happening.
So today on our Sunday afternoon session, and thank you for adjusting. I had a sound bath this morning that I was leaving, which was lovely and unexpected. But today, in the meantime, I wanted to talk about the energy that we're experiencing. So my question for you is if you are. Thank you. If you are experiencing, like, what kind of energy are you experiencing right now? Hello, Anna. Nature and I are trying to find a place to stay. Quick, how are you this beautiful Sunday? So as you're dialing in, coming on in, I'd love to just hear how you feel on this beautiful Sunday.
I'm doing a short little walk before I sit down and maintain, and I are gonna hop on down here, so we're gonna take a seat. So on Sunday, today, energy, I wanted to talk to you guys to see how you're feeling energetically and just see what's happening with you. So if you're calling in or you're listening on replay, I'd love to just share some insights with you. So I may have mentioned this previously, but I am. I do a lot of energy work. So I'm a Reiki master. I'm a certified sound therapist. I do a lot of breath work.
One of the many hats that I wear. So today I wanted to talk about all the energy that we might be feeling and just hold it out there. But also recognize that it's a really great time to do some writing. So. So if you're a journaler, now would be a great time to do that. Oh, Anya. Ana. Yes. You're a cancer and experiencing a pretty clear and calming energy. You feel strong about the path you're on. I love that. I am a Gemini, and this energy right now is intense for Geminis in, like, the beautiful way.
But let me just talk to you about some things that have happened in the last few days that you might be experiencing, or if you're on social media, you might see it popping up on your social media. And if you didn't before, you certainly will start seeing things now. Just because I'm Talking about it, and that's how the algorithm works. But the first thing that happened, the Venus, the planet, went into retrograde. So retrograde, it's a backwards movement. So anytime you hear someone talk about Mercury in retrograde or something in retrograde, it's as if the planet appears to be moving backwards.
Mostly, though, it's a period of time to focus on slowing down. So with the Venus time frame right now and slowing down, it's a very feminine energy. So men are from Mars, women are from Venus. You know the book, really old book, it's a feminine energy. So it's really about finding something, some time to slow down and sit in the space of the feminine part of you. And that doesn't mean boy, girl. It just means that energetically, what's the part of you that nurtures yourself? And how might you take some time to nurture yourself a little bit more?
Now on the 14th, in the middle of the night. So if you were up in the middle of the night, you may have seen this. It was also a full moon. It's called the blood moon or the worm moon, typically designating a transition into the spring. So what happens in the spring? Typically, things melt, snow melts the rivers. They start to move a little faster, and they start to flip some energy, and they start to flip what's down in the bottom of the river, and you start to see things coming to the top. So it's that transitionary period.
But what was unique about this particular moon is that it also was a lunar eclip. Now, there's always two eclipses that happen. A lunar eclipse followed by a solar eclipse. A lunar eclipse, again, is always very feminine energy. So again, it's that nurturing side of us. The left side of our body, energetically speaking, is our feminine side of our body. So we pull in our intentions, our energy in the left side of our body, and we activate our energy, masculine energy, on the the right side of our body.
So it's always that yang and yang, that ebb and flow. Same thing happens with eclipses. So a lunar eclipse happens first, where the sun covers up the moon, and it ends with that fiery solar eclipse. So that will happen on the New Moon on March 29. Why is this even important? And why am I taking up space for it today? Here's why. It's a really great season to have new connections, new paths, new starts, fresh starts. Spring cleaning, right? We do that for a reason. But what is also really unique about this particular moon, energy and fun fact, we also just entered Mercury in retrograde.
So there is a lot of slow down movement that's happening over the next two weeks. You may consider not signing any contracts. And if you need to sign a contract, maybe you're starting a new job. Read all of the details very thoroughly. Don't just go in and sign something willy nilly, which is my usual mode. Take the time, read the contract, make sure that the details are the details that you want. But also with this particular transition, it's about letting go of all of those relationships that no longer support the future version of yourself.
Wow, that was a mouthful. So let me break it down. It's the season where we look back, we reflect on how far we come, and we recognize that sometimes there might be relationships or thought patterns that we have that keep us in the old version of ourselves and it doesn't allow us to step into that new evolved version of who we want to become. Think of a butterfly. They go into a cocoon. And inside that cocoon they develop their wings. They transition. A metamorphosis happens. A transition happens.
And when they start to crack open that cocoon, they literally have to break their own way out. If anything or anyone helps them, they will die immediately because that's how they build the strength in their wings so that they can fly. So this season is about that season of letting go of that past version of you. What is the story that you've been telling yourself? Who are the people that have been holding that story over you and attaching it to you? And now is the time to make some hard decisions.
Like is it a time where maybe you let some of those go or do you start to invest in them so that they can start to shift to help support the future version of you that is in the creation right now. That could even mean you letting go of an old version of you. But what's beautiful about being inside that space of an eclipse, so lunar eclipse inside and that pocket of window time between the two eclipses, now's the time to invest some time in journaling. Take a day trip, go on a hike, go for a walk, sit by some water and journal.
Take that time to allow yourself to feel what's going on in your heart. Now that sounds pretty squishy. Yeah. But it's really important that we allow ourselves to go there. And I love it. You're taking space of making decisions to let go and switch paths. Yeah. I find myself personally, every about three years, I change the work that I do. I let go of some things that no longer serve me or Maybe I just am bored with it doesn't challenge me as much. And I choose to invest in one or two classes or certifications a year because I'm super curious.
But that gives me enough time to let things percolate, to see how they might manifest themselves. And then I start to create a new path. I'm also a serial entrepreneur. I'll raise my hand at that. But I'm just really a curious person. So right now it's a beautiful time to allow yourself to evolve. What thought patterns don't serve you anymore? What old contracts did you create that are now complete that you no longer want to reinvest in or re up that contract with or those friendships that you know, they're the ones that you go out to dinner with them and you're like, gosh, I just don't feel so connected with them anymore.
Great people, beautiful people. But there's something that's just shifted about the energy. Or maybe they just don't show you the excitement when you try something new that maybe they once did, because maybe they're going through something and all of that is beautiful and okay. But right now, here we're talking about you team. So let's focus on that. How might we, you and I, allow ourselves the space to go out there and simply write and create on paper? Maybe if you draw, use some colored pencils or pens maybe.
One thing I like to do, I like to storyboard. I'm not a very good drawer, but I do like colors. So what if you took six boxes on a piece of paper and you drew what today feels like, and you draw out five years from now, a year from now, six months from now, what would be in the box in the future? So upper right hand corner, upper left hand corner, lower right hand corner. What does that future look like? What are you doing? Who's with you? What does it look like? You can draw it. You can draw some symbols, maybe write some words to go with it, and then create four boxes in between, two at the top, two at the bottom, that create like a path to get you there.
So you go across and then down and over. Just draw in there. I like drawing because drawing doesn't attach any meaning or words to it. It just gives you that picture of what that path looks like. You get to read that, you get to create that story, and then you get to decide who's in that story with you. And anybody who doesn't come into that story in the future, maybe they just don't come into that story in the Same way that they did in the past. Maybe they evolve. Maybe your relationship evolves.
Or maybe that relationship or whatever it was, it's complete and it's great. And that person and those people, you thank them for all that they did to help you become who you are today. Whether it was a challenge or inspiration, it doesn't mean that the relationship was always good. It just means that it served its purpose. So I can think back of a number of friends that I've had or girlfriends that I've had that I love to this day with all my heart and soul. If they called me up, I would still go to lunch with them.
But my day to day shifted, who I am shifted. And so that day to day friendship with those individuals, it just didn't stick anymore. Because what they were looking for in life and what I was looking for in life, it just shifted. And we evolved and adjusted. And some new people came into my life and have helped me to rise up into a different possibility of who I am. I'm thinking various teachers, this community, all of these things have entered into my life because I made space for them. But that all means that I had to let go of some things to make space for these new, beautiful things in this new, beautiful community of people.
So this Mooney energy, I could go on for days. If you have questions, type them in the chat. I will always come back and answer or put it in the mainstream section so everybody can see it. And I'll also add some commentary there to any questions that have. I promise to go out later today or tomorrow and add some things as well. But for right now, I just want to close with this. We are in an energetic time of changing and shifting, but the energy is about shifting you this time. So really recognizing what will support you in the next evolution of yourself.
You are the butterfly. You are in the cocoon. And you have the strength to break out and evolve into something new, magical and beautiful. So take the time that Venus in retrograde and Mercury in retrograde are asking of you and inviting of you. Take the time to slow down, take the time to invest in getting a massage, going for a walk, going to a sound bath, doing some breath work, taking time to pause so that you can decide what needs to happen and support that next version of you in its most beautiful form.
Recognizing that every, everything that has helped you get to this moment today is exactly what you needed. Everything, the good, the not good, all of it has gotten you exactly where you are today. And you get to choose what happens next. And we Cadre. Our whole family will be here with you to support that. So on this energetic Sunday, I send you all the love. Somebody hasn't told you lately. I am so proud of you, Cadre Team family is so proud of you for showing up. So I love you. I hope you have a great day.
I'll be here tomorrow morning for professional development. We're gonna have a good time there and I will talk to you all soon. Have the best day. Manger also says, have a great day. See you soon.
