It was late, probably around 9pm and I was just watching a YouTube video when the add popped on and instead of clicking ‘Skip Add’ immediately I was intrigued by the woman talking and before I knew it I was signing up for the free webinar!
Has this ever happened to you? You’re just minding your own business watching a video and bam! An ad pops on and you just HAVE to follow the link…
I was so inspired by this webinar because it was promoting a business model that I had already looked into for my business—the print-on-demand (POD) business model. I loved this idea of making art and uploading it to a website and having your cool art printed on mugs, T-shirts, and pillowcases! Just so cool. This is something that was in the back of my mind when starting AstroMommy and my Etsy shop, the Metaphysical Flamingo. I just hadn’t gone too far in the process yet…my Gemini rising had got the better of me and I had procrastinated. But here was this sweet Indian woman teaching me how to do just that in this webinar.
I left the webinar before it was even finished because I already had a POD provider picked out for my Etsy shop. I made up my first mug, the Metaphysical Flamingo Logo mug, schwag for my shop in about five minutes! It was so easy!
So, notebook in hand, I started brainstorming! All sorts of ideas flooded into my mind, some good, some terrible, some great! I did this for about two hours and then it was time to put my family to bed—yes it was late—but hey, it was Friday.
After getting everyone settled and laying my head on my own pillow I couldn’t sleep. The ideas just wouldn’t stop flowing! It was like a tidal wave of funny astrological sayings just one after the other, after the other! I finally fell asleep and then I dreamed about making these mugs!! I woke up thinking about the first mug I was going to make and just couldn’t get to my computer fast enough! Sipping on my coffee, I made the first one:
and it was on!! I have been so on a roll all day!
Now, this situation could be represented by a few transits I am experiencing personally—the Sun opposing my natal Mercury and Jupiter trine my natal Sun—this is like a huge verbal wave of inspiration that is coming to me like a freight train! I can’t ignore it and I can’t stop it, all I can do is to write and write and write! When Jupiter, the planet of luck and gifts and your career comes into a trine with your natal sun, YOU. WILL. FEEL. IT! When the transiting Sun opposes your natal Mercury, YOU. WILL. HAVE. TO. COMMUNICATE. IT!
Why am I writing about this? Because tonight we are on the eve of this major eclipse in Scorpio and it is so easy to fall into a trap that nothing will work out and that you just aren’t going to get any big breaks in life and I’m here to tell you, that’s an illusion.
That’s the South Node in Scorpio talking.
This eclipse may bring up dark and hidden things that we really don’t want to deal with right now, but we have to have faith and trust in the divine. Beautiful things can open up for you as long as you remember to create from a place of authenticity. And listen to the messages that the Universe is sending you!
I could’ve pressed ‘skip ad,’ but I didn’t! And if I had, I would’ve never heard the message from the divine to make a funny astrology mug! Whatever the message that is coming through for you, don’t press ‘skip.’ Listen and take action if it feels right. Follow the Astrology.
Have a beautiful weekend. Stay strong through this eclipse. The Universe has this.
Peace,
AstroMommy
