🔑 Key Takeaways from My Live Chat with Francesca Oddie
When your entire Substack gets wiped 🤪 what do you do next? After writing on Substack notes I was feeling lost in how to move forward,
offered to help me by looking at my natal chat. Short version this is a cosmic colonic. 💫Here’s what we unpacked:
💥 Crisis = Catalyst
Francesca called my Substack deletion a “Plutonic moment” — aka a death-rebirth transit.
Pluto is the planet of transformation, and right now it’s activating my chart in ways that scream reinvention, not retreat.
I literally joked about burning things down (only about my Instagram) two weeks before this happened. Careful what you manifest…
🧠 Astrology-backed Branding
My chart is ruled by Capricorn and Aquarius: a mix of career & community
Capricorn brings structure, strategy, and professionalism (hello PR crisis training).
Aquarius brings rebellion, community, and offbeat creativity (hello weird PR dress).
🔮 Personal is Powerful
I was forced to show vulnerability — and people responded more than when I led with traditional business advice (Example: An article I wrote in February about crisis PR gained no traction)
Maybe this is the green light I needed to integrate more personal storytelling into my work on self-employment and reinvention.
🗓 Big Astrological Shifts Ahead
Uranus moves into Gemini (the sign of writing and communication), creating a powerful alignment with my Venus and Mercury in Aquarius. ⚡️
Francesca predicts a surge of new ideas, deeper community work, and broader visibility — especially through writing, retreats, and journalism.
🧭 What I’m Taking Forward
I’m giving myself space to feel this grief, then rebuild slowly with intention.
I’m no longer afraid to share my strategy and softness — because that blend is where my power lies.
This experience will help me help other people with their unique value.
I need to remember my value and worth and how I can activate this to support others.
Do it my own way.
