The Astrogeography

Last year I had the joy of connecting with Christina to dive into her astrogeography. She shared stories of growing up and living most of her adult life in New York and spending time traveling back and forth to France. I was curious to discover what makes someone decide to switch coasts. And most importantly do we stay loyal to the places that raised us?

Here’s the astrogeo we are working with to give you some context to different energetics.

New York - Pluto DC - As someone also born and raised on this line, this energy is no joke. Pluto on the DC transforms on such a deep soul level. This usually comes external in our style, clothes, hair, and ways we express ourselves as a testament to our never-ending evolutions of who we are. This line really pushes us to be in the totalitiy of our potential, checks out as this was a formitive place for her career and blooging days.

Los Angeles - Sun IC - This energy is so fun, and so healing. The sun acts as a spotlight to shine who we are. It’s a very natural, bright energetic to work with. Sun IC will show up in realms of the home, family, money, and where you are living. “I came here for 3 months and never left” - it’s that exhale of feeling at home. This energy encapsulates joy, authentitcy, and will illuminate your sun sign in this case Cancer.

France - Moon IC - This energetic feels at its core like a hug. It’s nurturing, soft, and feminine. France is a place to connect with old friends, eat delicious meals, and nurture yourself from the inside out. Also showing up on the IC, this directly correlates to feeling held by family and your constellation of people around you.

The Perfect LA Day

An ideal day according to Christina is as follows

• Wake up
  Starting the day with movement is crucial for someone waking up with lots of energy. Christina said she loves to start the day by doing something high-energy, think hot yoga class at Hot 8 Yoga. An optional morning swap is hiking in Griffith Park listening to a spiritual podcast, or something that grounds you in and connects you to your higher self as you hike around.

• AM routine

  breakfast and then get ready for the day

• The best days are spent being around people, any kind of group gathering. As someone who is group oriented that is a perfect day already. Catch up with friends, have a picnic or backyard hang mid-day.

• Lunch

  Maybe check out Sqirl, if you want to go, or you can go to Figaro Bistrot in Los Feliz if you want to have a shitty lunch, but stare at people.

• Dinner

  “I really love K Town. It’s really slept on. They have amazing dive bars.”
  So head to K Town. Quarters Korean BBQ for dinner.
  Finish the night Franks for some pool.

  Call it a perfect day.

Something unexpected

There can be a really good community with influencers. I feel that a lot of people think that it's all for themselves. I have met a lot of people in L.A. more than New York that are willing to give you a contact or help you out or hire you. And I find that more cool.

I find that the LA girls, they get a really bad rap, but they got your back

Bucket List Destinations

Todos Santos, Baja California - She visited recently but we are throwing it on the list because it’s a resounding YES from both of us. - Neptune MC

Japan (specifically the beaches) - Jupiter DC

Vietnam - Jupiter DC

“Either I like beaches and being around people or being completely isolated.” - said a Cancer sun

Joshua Tree, CA - Sun IC although not a bucket list somewhere to return to over and over again in the vastness of nothing in the desert
