Balancing Giving & Receiving Care

Hi, it's Dayna, and I'm here with your divination
for the full moon in sidereal cancer. The 2026

Sidereal Astrology Guide says "Balancing Giving
and Receiving Care".

So this is the 2026 Sidereal Astrology Guide.
This is the ninth annual edition of your personal

horoscope workbook. The best thing about this
is you actually need to know nothing about

astrology. I'm the expert. I know all the things,
so I put them in this book for you. I'll walk

you through the personal application of one
year of astrology month by month, transit by

transit, so you can get a personal feel for
what each month and each week brings for you.

I've got some evergreen content in here, such
as all of this dope information about each

of the signs, what their ideal is, what their
task is. And this is a way for you to get started

with sidereal and really begin to understand
what it means for you, not just in the static

sense of what your sign is, but how you are
living this astrology every single day. And

I'm a guide and walk you through it. I just
want to start off with a couple of announcements.

before I get into the nitty-gritty of what
is going on in the sky. One, printed and bound

2026 Sidereal Astrology Guides are back in stock.
Get yours. Number two, I just created a new

offering for February, which is the month of
love. And it's called For Your Love in honor

of the beautiful love song by Stevie Wonder.
And it is for singles, it is for couples,

it is for anyone who's trying to get a look
at what love is going to be like for them

in 2026 based on their sign or their birth chart.
You can go to the description and click that

link and book. Or if you're watching live on
Instagram right now. You can go into my bio

and you can book there. Only in February.
If you don't catch it in February, you won't

catch it at all. I don't think that I've ever
offered a love reading specifically. It's always

a topic that people can bring up in readings,
but you would be surprised how infrequently

people ask me about love and relationships in
readings. Which is the perfect... segue to

this full moon, which is a full moon in sidereal
cancer, balancing, giving, and receiving care.

For a while now, I've been talking about the
astrological parallels between the end of 2019

and the first part of 2020 and... It is not
lost on me that one of the parallels that

has seemed to emerge is occurring in the same
location. George Floyd was murdered by the

state in 2020, and Renee Good and now Alex
Pretti have been murdered by the state in 2026,

both, all three of them, in Minneapolis. And...
What I want to draw attention to in terms

of balancing giving and receiving care is the
people's response and reaction to the violence.

In both instances, it has inspired a creation
of new networks, fortifying of old networks,

and establishing of new channels of giving and
receiving care.

One of the things that capitalism does, one
of the ways that it manipulates us is by

creating a false sense of comfort that actually
leaves us over-reliant on the state. for care.

It convinces us that the only means by which
we can receive care is through state-sanctioned

channels and the care that the state allows
us to receive. always filtered through, shaped

by white supremacy and patriarchy.

I believe she's a doctor, [Tressie McMillan Cottom].
I don't know. I don't even know if I'm saying

her name right. Y'all know who Tressie is. Forgive
me for calling this woman by her first name

without a handle. But in a recent video clip,
she was talking about... I don't know if she

was talking about the Black Panther Party or
what it was, but she talked about, I'm gonna

assume it was the Black Panther Party, that
the reason why the Black Panther Party was

so dangerous in the eyes of the state is because
it rendered the state irrelevant. It disrupted

the dependency that the state had created for
citizens to be trapped in. The state created

these prisons of dependency, quite frankly.
And the Black Panther Party created channels

and networks of care. where the state was not
even serving the people that the Black Panther

Party was serving. The state would rather these
people be left in desperation because desperate

people will take crumbs. But the Black Panther
Party established free clinics. They were getting

people's eyes checked, getting people doctor's
appointments, prescriptions for their medication.

They were feeding children. I mean, this was...
rendering the state irrelevant. And the last

thing the state wants is to be rendered irrelevant
because that means that the power they have

hoarded and consolidated is no longer hoarded
and consolidated.

Transits through sidereal capricorn and cancer.
I talked about this yesterday on the 2026

forecast that I presented on Zoom. I'll share
the links where you can rewatch that in the

description. But I talked about how eclipses
are moving into Cancer and Capricorn this summer

with a new moon solar eclipse in sidereal cancer.
The nodes will switch over in November, but

the summer new moon will be close enough to
the nodes for it to be an eclipse and it'll

be in Cancer. Historically, activity across
Cancer and Capricorn correlates to... economic

revolutions, shifts and changes. The Communist
Revolution in Cuba, the day that it all went

down was, I believe, a full moon eclipse in
Capricorn. If we go back to 45's first term,

Mars retrograde in Capricorn, along with eclipses
in Cancer in Capricorn then correlated to tax

cuts. for corporations that we are experiencing
the fallout from now. That there were some

benefits that the average worker received during
that time, but they were set to expire and

those have expired, which is why people are
seeing higher tax bills, et cetera, et cetera,

et cetera, because corporate tax cuts always
are paid for by... Poor people.

Part of why this full moon is about balancing
giving and receiving care is twofold. Capricorn

is the caretaker, which we talked about before.
And cancer by way of the moon is about being

taken care of. Capricorn folks are always finding
a cancer or someone moon prominent to take

care of. And... point I'm trying to get to.
is that in capitalism, all labor is caretaking

labor. You may have heard me use this phrase
and talk about it during the Mars retrograde

in cancer, which was fall 2024, winter 2025.
All labor is caretaking labor. All work is

caretaking. It's just a matter of who's the
recipient of the care that your labor provides.

Yeah, you may be scanning groceries at Aldi's,
but you are not the recipient of care of that

labor. Often, care comes in the form of money.
Because what do you do when you get money?

You buy care. Money is to buy care. Currency
is to buy care. So when you're scanning the

groceries, greeting the customers at Aldi,
they swipe their card, that money is not going

to you. You are allotted a small portion of
that money or caretaking tokens, as I like

to call them, dollars, euros, yen, ah pounds,
Canadian dollars, pesos, those are caretaking

tokens. Because I don't care what you are doing
for work. I don't care if you are sewing brains

back together, making sure children cross the
street.

your labor is to take care of someone because
what is an economy but a means to valuing

and distributing care? What is an economy but
a way that we value care and distribute that

care? Now, there's lots of different care that
we give and receive, but in capitalism, we're

talking about... how I buy the care that I need
with money. Sometimes this is really literal,

right now, how are we going to buy the healthcare
that we need with the currency that we are

allotted? Everywhere we turn, we are exchanging
dollars for care. We need someone to drive

us to our next destination. We need someone
to prepare our food. We need someone to dry

clean our laundry. We need someone to teach
our children. We need someone to tend to our

wounds. We need someone to build our home.
We need someone to prepare our plumbing so

that we can get the care that we need. So when
we have a conversation about billionaires,

when we have a conversation about wealth hoarding,
what's actually happening, it is When you

are hoarding a billion dollars, you are saying,
I want to have all of the caretaking tokens

so that I will have the means to get all the
care that I could ever need or want.

When corporations lobby for tax credits so that
they don't have to pay any taxes, what they're

saying is, I don't want anyone else to have
the care that they need. want it all for myself.

Money is really abstract. And particularly in
this time where we swipe cards and you know,

Apple Pay and all of these things where we're
not touching actual dollars, money has become

incredibly abstract. But if you are in any
way interested in seeing change, you need to

de-abstractify money. And it needs to be something
real, it needs to be something you can relate

to, and it needs to be something... you can
quantify. If I say that someone is a billionaire,

that they have assets or cash worth a billion
dollars, your mind can't even quantify that.

Your mind can't even, you can't even wrap your
mind around that. But if I say that someone

has hoarded 1 billion caretaking tokens while
you only get 500 caretaking tokens on your

check every two weeks, I think that makes it
a little bit plain more plain for you. What

is the amount of work or labor that someone
can do to make them worthy of 1 billion caretaking

tokens and you worthy of only 500 caretaking
tokens?

How much care could you possibly need that
you need 1 billion tokens to get it? Make it

make sense. It's been what two, three, four
weeks since I posted a clip on my page about

Beyonce becoming a billionaire and people are
still arguing in the comments and they're

still missing the freaking Like, people don't
want me to talk about Beyoncé. They're like,

why do you have to keep talking about her?
Why don't you talk about other billionaires?

Because the point that I'm making in that clip
is very... It is very... I don't want to

say exclusive to Beyoncé, but she is really
a prime example of how celebrities use parasocial

relationships with their fans and audience.
to disarm them from perceiving them as a threat,

even when they're hoarding all the caretaking
tokens for themselves. I really want for you

to. rework the logic in your brain. Stop saying
billionaire. Stop saying millionaire. Stop

saying money. Call them caretaking tokens because
that's what they are. If you watch the Diddy

Dock, he got somebody spraying his cologne on
him, putting his chain on him, cutting his

hair for him, running his bath water for him,
getting drugs for him, getting women for him,

booking the hotel. oh Every single way that
he could purchase someone's labor so that

they could care for him, he's done it. Balancing
giving and receiving care also admonishes us

to reevaluate the valuation of labor and why
some people's labor is worth more than other

people's labor. Some kinds of labor or some
kinds of care are worth more than other kinds

of care. And it is so pervasive the way that
we devalue some forms of care or labor and

overly value other forms of care or labor that
you don't even think to question it. You don't

even think to question why a person who becomes
a millionaire, why the work that they do is

valued more than the person who's checking you
out at the grocery store. Because at the end

of the day, you need the person checking you
out at the grocery store more than you need

the person who is some CEO getting a bonus of
$50 million at the end of the fiscal year.

What shall you do with the caretaking tokens
you've been allotted?

the lower the amount of caretaking tokens you
have, the less care you're able to get, right?

So balancing giving and receiving care is,
yes, this is about the relationship dynamics

of your most interpersonal and intimate connections.
Yes, this is a moment to evaluate your position

in your relationships and the role that you...
uh naturally take on in your relationships.

Are you the recipient of care or are you the
giver of care? Are you setting the emotional

tone and orienting the people in your life around
your own comfort, right? Or are you the person

who orients yourself to alleviate the distress
and comfort of other people? Balancing, giving,

and receiving care is meant to alert you to
these dynamics and understand your role. Now,

hey, listen, when we talk about balancing, giving,
and receiving care, this isn't always a dynamic

we choose. If we are chronically ill, if we
are disabled, if we are experiencing an extended

period of grief and loss, if we are em developmentally
disabled or challenged, More than likely, the

dynamics of care in our life are going to be
imbalanced, that we need much more care than

we're able to give. And that's normal. That's
natural. But the problem in capitalism is that

the way that we structure care is in hierarchies
that are determined by race and gender. I

am really... often astounded by people's
resistance to having a real conversation

about these topics. And it reinforces for me
that what we are up against is not unwillingness.

We are not up against intellectual barriers.
We are not up against any of those things.

We are up against incredibly effective propaganda.
We are up against a religiosity that cannot

be penetrated by intellectual means. When I
share clips of this podcast on social media,

most of the time, the majority of the responses
are people in gratitude for the way I've illuminated

their personal struggle, gratitude for putting
language to something they have not been able

to articulate but have understood on some level.
But there are a lot of people who, whether

they're in the comments or not. Their reaction
is to regurgitate their indoctrination and

propaganda. Nobody wants to acknowledge or unwittingly
find themselves aware of the fact that they

have been indoctrinated with propaganda. and
particularly the kind of propaganda that America

imposes on us and the world, it makes you internalize
the propaganda as reality. rather than someone's

explanation, rather than someone's belief that
you're internalized.

People want to make these distinctions between
fact and beliefs. But I don't think that

there is as hard of a line of distinction between
those two things as you really want them to

be. And it's actually very discomforting to
realize how permeable the line between fact

and belief is. Because all a fact is is a belief
that most people believe. It was a fact that

the Earth was flat before the Earth was round.

For many people, it was a fact that police could
be reformed before they learned that you cannot

reform the police. That line between fact and
belief is not a line at all. It's a preferrated

edge.

Yet many people regurgitate their propaganda
indoctrination as if it is fact, as if it is

immutable. undeniable, irrefutable, unrebuttable
fact. One of the reasons why I often enjoy

coming to the full moon in cancer each year
is that cancer transits, including this full

moon, have a way of reminding us that we have
a body. While everybody's all type and happy,

with their fingers on their phones and on their
screens. The people in Minnesota are bearing

the physical and emotional brunt of actual
terrorism in their streets, in their homes,

in their places of worship, in their places
of business and schools. everybody can theorize

how they would respond and what people need
to do and also the story that you want to tell

or believe about of specific occurrence. But
when there is no screen to serve as a barrier

between your body and your nervous system and
the reality that is in your environment, it

don't matter. None of that matters. Cancer
reminds us that at the end of the day, someone

hoarding $1 billion, also to be understood
as 1 billion caretaking tokens, has a material,

emotional, nervous system consequence for you.
when you go to bed at night. You are not sitting

and thinking about how you will spend your free
time the next day, what loved ones you will

relax with. You're not thinking about how easy
it's going to be for you to go to your doctor's

appointment and get the care that you need.
You're not thinking about how you'll get to

spend all day with your children, enjoying them.
That's not what you're thinking about when

you go to bed. You're thinking about that email
from your coworker that you didn't answer.

You're thinking about the bill that's going
to come out of your account and whether or

not you have enough to cover it. You're thinking
about going and picking up that prescription

and wondering whether you'll have to get a prior
authorization from your insurance company or

whether they'll cover it at all. You're thinking
about how expensive groceries are. Those thoughts

aren't intellectual. They're a nervous system
orientation to not having enough care and

having to ration what little care you've been
allotted and to have to think about how you're

going to use your time, your mental energy,
and your physical labor to make sure that somebody

else somewhere else gets to have all the caretaking
tokens they could possibly ever want or need.

Revolution begins in the body.

Revolution begin.

with the sobriety of being with the reality
of how your circumstances are emotionally

impacting you.

So much of the rebuttals and regurgitation of
propaganda that people have to the things that

I say on this podcast is to shield themselves
from the helplessness and hopelessness and

fear that inevitably comes up when you accept
the truth that these people want you to die.

When you accept the truth that somebody having
$1 billion means you don't have enough, this

is math. all of this, there's enough for everybody
in the abundance of my manifestation. Yeah,

there is enough for everybody and you need to
go get your enough from the people who are

hoarding it.

You need to take it back. You need to stop giving
it to them. Balancing, giving, and receiving

care, I want to end on this note before I pull
some cards. Balancing, giving, and receiving

care is about a reorientation of your understanding
and conceptualizing of what qualifies as care.

When you go into the parking lot to collect
the buggies or the carts that the shoppers

have left, that's caretaking. and you get in
your caretaking tokens for it. when you are

standing security at the door of the hospital
or the bank that's care, and you're getting

your caretaking tokens for it. Some of you are
doing caretaking that you don't even get caretaking

tokens for. your wiping snotty noses and nursing
in the middle of the night, changing diapers.

All work, all labor is caretaking. So you
need to ask yourself, or you need to go read

a book, to find the answer to the question,
why is your labor, why is your caretaking

worth so much less? than other peoples.

The answer is not because you don't work hard
enough. I don't hate to be a broken record.

I love to be a broken record. The answer is
not because you haven't focused. The answer

is not because you haven't locked in. The answer
is not because you haven't put in enough effort.

The propaganda is meant to make you feel like
and believe that your capacity to have what

you need is only limited by how hard you're
willing to work. And that is truly a lie. It's

a lie from the pit of hell. It's absolutely
a lie. Free yourself. Free yourself. Free.

yourself from taking responsibility for something
that is not your responsibility. Yeah, in reality,

we live in capitalism. You got to go to work,
you got to get your check, you got to pay your

bills, and that's just the world that we're
living in. But you don't like it. And if you

do like it, um I don't even know what to tell
you. Let's pull some cards.

I'm back with my tarot cards. We are, as always,
opening ourselves up to what guidance and wisdom

and insight is available through us, available
to us, through the symbolism of the tarot,

what intuitive guidance that we are truly in
dire need of in this moment can empower us.

what perspectives are beneficial to take on
in terms of how we see and understand ourselves

and what's happening in our worlds and environments
in this moment at this full moon of balancing,

giving and receiving care. We're starting off
with the high priestess. The High Priestess

is a card about deepening our self-trust. It
is about perceiving truths that we have no

material evidence for. This full moon is trine
Saturn and Pisces. And one of the ways that

I understand Pisces is the... recognition of
nonverbal signals that alert us to patterns.

That cancer Pisces trine for me is about how
one of the ultimate forms or means by which

we can feel taken care of is when we're receiving
care that we didn't ask for. We're receiving

care that we didn't even know that we needed.
We're receiving care that we have not articulated

or verbalized. We're receiving care because
someone else has done the labor of recognizing

our patterns. They notice when we're off. They
notice when we're not coming and going as we

normally do, when we're not sleeping and waking
as we normally do, when we're not eating or

communicating in the tone of voice that we normally
do. They are tapped in and tuned into our patterns.

and they respond without asking for permission
or needing to be told verbally. For many of

us, this translates to recognizing our own
patterns as signals that we are in need of

care. It's so important to understand that our
capacity to be at home and the vulnerability

of needing care and receiving care relies upon
us having been felt. To be felt means that

someone allows themselves to be influenced by
you emotionally. I want to be clear that when

I'm talking about giving and receiving care,
I'm not talking about conversation. I'm not

talking about words. I'm not talking about naming
feelings. I'm talking about the gift of cancer,

which is attunement to resonate on the same
emotional level or frequency, which allows

me to understand without words what it is that
you need and to be moved to respond to it.

Why isn't Our government. structured in this
way. Why don't our elected representatives

function in a way that they are tapped in
and tuned in to the needs of their constituents?

Zohra Mamdani has the cancer Capricorn opposition
in his birth chart. And you can see how that

Capricorn equips him with the skills of being
a competent caretaker. He knows what to say.

He's tapped into the needs of his constituents
to the point that it makes us all feel envious

of the care that New Yorkers are receiving.
It's not perfect. It's not the ultimate destination

of where we want to be, but is a manifestation
of caretaking by an elected official that we

don't have a reference point for. Cancer is
always reminding us of our entitlement to

receive care. Many of you do not feel entitled
to receiving care for a variety of reasons.

The primary one being you've been indoctrinated
to believe that you need to earn care. You

don't need to earn care. Care is not something
that you earn. You are born helpless and you

die helpless. And in between, of course, equal
to your ability, you participate in the giving

and receiving of care. The more able you are,
the more care you have the capacity to give,

such that when you are unable, there's somebody
who's able to give you care. Why is it that

we do not feel entitled to the intuitive knowing?
From our elected officials, from our economic

system, why doesn't our economic system actually
serve our needs? Shouldn't an economic system

be intuitive in a way that it anticipates the
needs of the people who participate in it?

This economic system is not intuitively anticipating
your needs. It is manipulated to facilitate

the hoarding of caretaking tokens for a small
few and prevent you from getting more. And

you've been so indoctrinated that you will get
in my comments, you will talk to your friends

about why it is that somebody else deserves
more caretaking tokens than you do. Why somebody

deserves more caretaking tokens than your first
grade teacher, your mama, your stay at home

dad, the CNA or the home health aide that's
taking care of your grandmother. It's immoral!

You have been indoctrinated with propaganda
that has soured your moral compass. where you

don't see the weak as deserving of care. You
see them as something you hope you will never

be so that you are not in their position of
not having enough care. Let's pull some more

cards. We've got the magician. And we've got
the Eight of Swords. The Magician and High

Priestess are a really fascinating combination
to me because they are kind of two sides of

the same coin. The High Priestess is about things
that are not verbalized, things that are not

explicit. It is about being able to tap into
and become aware of that which is gestating

and that which has not yet... been birthed or
materialized. It's being able to see something

as it's forming and rightly identify it and
respond to it. It's about this level of self-trust

that allows us to tap into an inner knowing
without the evidence or reassurance of other

people's beliefs, right? And The Magician
is about the adeptness and the facility

with which we are able to communicate uh what
it is that we have to say. I often associate

it with words, but it doesn't have to be associated
with words. In this moment, I'm thinking about

how in Divination for Liberation, Sidereal,
Astrology, the four elements are fire, earth,

air, and water, and I understand them as tools.
And in each of our birth charts, we are allotted

a proportion. of these tools based on the signs
that are occupied in our birth chart. The tool

of water, which Cancer is where the full moon
is this month, and Pisces where Saturn is,

that tool of water is about our feelings, it
is about our body and our bodily functions.

And when we have an abundance of water, that
becomes the tool that we are most adept at

working with. It becomes the one that we reach
for. And in a somatic sense, it is about

our feelings and our emotions and our bodily
functions having a higher volume in the mix,

so to speak, that we are more present to and
we are more affected by our own bodies and

our own feelings and our own emotions. And
so when I see the magician within this context,

I'm thinking about attunement to oneself and
being affected by one's own body as a skill

that can be developed in moments where we are
under a sky with copious amounts of water.

In the 2026 forecast I presented on Zoom yesterday,
I talked about how the dominant tool of 2026

is water. And we are going to see that at this
full moon, but also doing a Pisces stellium,

which I'll be talking about in March and April.
Jupiter's going to come to Cancer June 1st.

We will have a Mercury retrograde that is partially
in Cancer, and Mars will enter its retrograde

shadow in Cancer later this year. All of this
water is saying the primary tool that we collectively

have to work with in this moment is water.
And this full moon is a check-in to say, how

well do you know how to work with water? Are
you collecting water if you're person who doesn't

have enough water in their birth chart or any
water at all? What are you doing with your

overflow if you are a person who has a lot of
water in their birth chart? If you have a lot

of water in your birth chart, there is maybe
a overriding sense of emotional self-protection

and isolation, a heightened sense of skepticism
and suspicion that makes you distrust yourself

or other people, or you struggle with addiction
and indulgence because the noise of your own

emotional reality is too much to bear, and so
you use substances or behaviors to... change

what it is that you feel rather than feeling
what it is that you actually feel. This full

moon is giving us an opportunity to check in
on our skill level with being affected by our

own bodies and how that impacts the way that
we give and receive care in our relationships,

but also to observe the patterns of giving and
receiving care in a larger scale, whether

that's in our healthcare system where nurses
are organizing after the murder of Alex Preti,

nurses are striking in California, and Hawaii,
because they do not believe that they are

staffed appropriately to give the care that
patients need in hospitals, right? All of

these ways of that we are quantifying and observing
how care is allotted and how care is received.

Who... in our society is deemed as being deserving
of care? And who in our society is deemed as

not being deserving of care? Do you deem yourself
to be deserving of care? How would you act

if you were deserving of care? How would you
behave? How would you show up in your relationships

if you really felt deserving of care? How would
you show up politically? What would you be

doing in the political sphere? And I don't mean
just voting. How would you show up and what

would you do if you really felt like you were
deserving of care? And what are the barriers

that are in the way of you feeling deserving
of care? Who's made you feel like a burden?

Who's ignored you into not even being able to
feel your own body or tap into the emotions

that you feel? Who's shamed you for being in
need? Who hurt you and punished you when you

were vulnerable and asking for help? And how
has that contributed to... how triggering

it can be for you to be in the vulnerable position
of needing care. Everybody needs care. It's

just what's the story you're telling about it.
Everybody is in need of care. It's just how

entitled do you feel to it? Everybody's in need
of care. It's just a matter of are you aware

of it or not? And if you're not aware of it,
why aren't you aware of the fact that you need

care? And if you don't feel entitled to care,
why don't you feel entitled to care? If you

are judging and shaming people's GoFundMe, is
it because you're jealous that you don't have

the confidence to reach out in your time of
need? You feel like you just have to do it

by yourself? If you see folks panhandling on
the corner, what is the emotional response

that you have? They're getting the care tokens
they need by any means necessary. even if their

dignity and their pride is on the line in the
process. Is your dignity and your pride in

the way of you giving and receiving care? Eight
of Swords. This is a card that I like to associate

it with two different things. The first thing
is making things unnecessarily hard for ourselves.

Overthinking it to the point that it's a barrier
to the ease that's right there. The second

association I have with this card is about
accommodation. often we get trapped in cycles

of thought as a means to solving problems or
in this case, getting our needs met when it's

not a intellectual problem that we're having.
And I think one of the ways that this manifested

this full moon for me is that people often
associate emotional intelligence as the capacity

to intellectually understand how you feel or
verbally communicate what you need.

And while those things may be helpful components
of emotional intelligence or emotional availability,

I don't think that that's the full picture.
The gift of water signs, of the tool of water

is to be affected by our own body. To be affected
by your own body means that you are tuned in

and tapped into the sensations that are manifesting
in your body, you are able to be present to

what the physical aspects of your emotional
experience are. Emotions are physical, they're

not intellectual. Emotions are not the words
you use to name feelings, they're the feelings

you have in your body in response to external
or internal stimuli. That stimuli could be

your own thoughts. It could be your own belief
system. It could be something that someone

said to you. It could be the interpretation
you have of what someone said or did to you.

It could be the physical contact somebody makes
or doesn't make with you, right? But we're

talking about the physical embodied reaction
or response, not the word that your brain gives

it. Because the word that your brain gives it
is a social construct of your society. There

are sensations and emotions that we don't even
have words for in the English language. We

got to borrow words from other languages. You
see it all the time on social media. Someone

will post a image or a graphic of a word from
another language like German or Japanese, and

it'll be describing an emotional experience
that you've had, but not one that we have a

word for culturally. There is a cultural dynamic
to your capacity to be affected by your own

body. Emotions are as much of a physical thing
that we're experiencing, whether or not we

have the words for it, as it is the sensations
that we've decided to pay attention to as

a society. It makes me think about female genital
mutilation and this practice that has gone

on in many societies for a very long time.
And while women have experienced pain, incontinence

and prolapse of their internal reproductive
organs, What is the language that they have

to name and talk about the depth of that pain
and process? It's a pain that's unique to their

culture. So I'm certain they have words and
they have concepts for that pain that we don't

have here. But there's also ways that we ignore
the pain of marginalized people in our society.

We ignore the pain of gender dysphoria that
trans people and people who are not trans experience

because the gender binary is a violent construct.
that we impose on people before, that we impose

on people before they're even born. What sensations
and emotional experiences are you having that

you don't even have words for? Can you trust
the truth that your body lives in even when

you don't have a witness through words, to
name it? We can always start with, I like it

or do I don't like it? That's where we can always
start. Let's call this done. Thank you for

tuning into the Divination for Liberation podcast.
I am Dayna Lynn Nuckolls, also known as The

People's Oracle. I will see you two, in two
weeks, at the New Moon in Sidereal Aquarius,

which will be an eclipse. Yes, eclipse season
is nigh and we are talking about privacy and

surveillance. Yeah, that's relevant, isn't it?
We are talking about being seen versus being

erased. We are talking about humiliation and
embarrassment. We are talking about self-determination.

These are all themes that we are dealing with
in this series of eclipses in Sidereal, Leo,

and Aquarius. In the meantime, make sure that
you are checking the link I'm gonna put in

the description to see what the wastewater is
doing as far as COVID in... your area. think

we are on the other side of a surge at this
point and transmission of COVID, particularly

in the Northeast and Midwest, is receding. Elsewhere
tends to be pretty good. I'm always of the

mind that you should mask in indoor spaces because
that's what I do and that's what I'm going

to continue to do until they get a sterilizing
vaccine for all strains of COVID. I hope that

you are staying warm if you are in any of these
very, very, very cold and snowy locales right

now. You take care of yourself. Bye.
