Episode 31: “A Blow Up in Montana”

Planet Buzz’s panel 2025 Aquarius episode, “VENUS RETROGRADE Re-Defining Self-Worth”.

“Venus consciousness attracts what we desire. What values felt deeply in the heart and soul manifest into our lives. This week Venus leaves watery Pisces to enter the fire of Aries beginning the spark of life. She starts an epic cosmic energy path transiting between the waters and fire creating dynamic birth, later followed by outer planets Neptune and Saturn this Spring,” said Sue Minahan, founder, and host of the weekly show. “Venus in Aries acts independently in becoming a new identity and defending values in causes by instinctively leading in a new direction asserting their individual authority. While Venus is in (an apparent) retrograde motion, we redefine values linked to what substantiates the values supporting our self-worth. In Aries, the journey only begins that encounters actions and choices initiating us becoming renewed as we rebirth.”

Talk Cosmos Planet Buzz connects with a myriad of new or returning Special Guests from around the USA and parts of the world contemplating potent subjects concerning us all.

More than twenty years ago, Scott Shoemaker's son Joshua was diagnosed with autism. Research led Scott to try chelation therapy on his son to detox heavy metals such as aluminum and mercury. Within days, Joshua's behavior improved, and within months, his recovery was complete. Many others have documented similar recoveries and chelation clinics have a wealth of data going back decades, yet many parents are unaware of this therapy or know if it is right for their child. Isn't HHS action long overdue?
