Episode 93: Projection Transference and Counter-Transference! Taurus Season and Weekly Tarot!

Hey everyone, and welcome back to the podcast! Today's podcast focuses first on - Transference is when the client is taking on the qualities of the therapist, while countertransference is when the therapist is also learning qualities from their clients. - Mercury is retrograde, and the full moon in Scorpio is on May 5. Both of these things are going to bring intense energy into the mix.: This week, we should expect strength, courage, persuasion, and patience. We should also expect happiness, family, harmony, and fortune.: We will be feeling the energy of the tourist season during these next few weeks. Mercury will be retrograde, which means there will be some bumps in the road and internal conflicts. Important dates for Taurus during this period include April 20 to May 19. Projection is when we take our anxieties, fears, and emotions and try to put them on to other people. It is a defense mechanism that protects us from doing the internal reflection we need. There are five forms of projection. The first form is attributing our qualities to someone else. The second form is when we overhype our positive attributes and project them onto others. The third form is when we assume that other people share the same beliefs, opinions, and priorities as us. The fourth form is when we believe the other person has the same skills and abilities. The fifth and final form is when we combine all of these, and we assume that the other person believes in the same things as us, has the same skills and abilities, and is even similar to us. So that's a projection. Before I go any further, I want to make a critical point. Bill is not always wrong. It can be a beneficial mechanism. It allows us to understand and empathize with other people. It helps us to know how they're feeling. It can also help us to communicate better and build relationships.
