Brief Yet Significant Transit Exploration: Next Several Years Oct 24, 2025

Show notes

Hi everyone! I've been in the worm hole looking at historical events and upcoming transits.

I wanted to share some speculation on upcoming transits between now and the next 8-9 years. This is a meandering, casual podcast sharing ideas and theories I'm considering as I do initial research. I can assure you that as time goes on, I will continue to offer more in depth and thoughtful analysis. It's almost impossible to organize and fit 8-9 years of transits into a single, digestible episode!

Note: Something I found SUPER interesting that I did not include, in 1751, Saturn and Jupiter were with the nodes in opposition (similar to what we will see coming up), and it was when the first encyclopedia was introduced! This could be a period of great awakening and age of awareness...

New Moon in Chitra: Embracing Limitless Potential Oct 17, 2025

Show notes

This week on AstrologyNow, we explore the New Moon in Libra within the brilliant star of Chitra — the celestial architect. This new moon invites us to see beyond our limited experience and embrace our full potential.

We discuss the evolutionary strategy of confirmation bias — how the mind clings to what’s familiar, even when it limits growth — and how this New Moon invites us to step into the vastness of new possibilities.

Libra reminds us of justice, fairness, and the art of relating, while Chitra adds creative brilliance and structure — the ability to turn ideals into tangible reality. There will be calls for peace and connection, though there may be some hurdles or challenges to move through.

Plus, a look at Jupiter in Cancer, and its influence on themes of security, homeland protection, and even collective systems like digital IDs. What does this mean for personal and societal evolution?

Jupiter in Cancer (But Not for Long!): Mini Horoscopes for All Signs Oct 10, 2025

Show notes

Hi everyone!

In this segment we explore Jupiter’s momentary transit into sidereal Cancer — its sign of exaltation. We explore the cultural impact of a social planet changing signs as well as discuss insights on how Jupiter’s wisdom, optimism, and nurturing energy will influence us collectively and individually.

We discuss how this transit invites greater empathy, healing, and alignment with the heart, while also illuminating where we may overextend or over trust. We then briefly explore horoscopes for all twelve zodiac signs, helping you understand how Jupiter in Cancer will impact your chart for the next 1.5 months.

Jupiter will be in Cancer from October 18th - December 5th. It will return to Cancer in Spring of 2026, where we will do more in depth horoscopes and research. Keep in mind that Jupiter's retrograde can complicate matters. But regardless, Jupiter strives to bring the truth.

Full Moon in Pisces and Other Astrological Ongoings Oct 03, 2025

Show notes

Hi everyone! In today's segment we cover the upcoming full moon in sidereal Pisces.

As we know, the full moon is a moment of release and letting go. The full moon in PISCES, the final sign, truly represents a time of conclusions, endings, and closure.

This full moon will take place in the nakshatra of Revati. The asterism of friendliness, compassion, and guiding others on the path - literally or metaphorically.

We also cover Pluto direct, karma control planets, and other astrological on-goings.

October Horoscope: Endings, Renewal, and a Call to Balance Sep 26, 2025

Show notes

Hi everyone! In today's segment, we cover the main transits of October... which I'm REALLY looking forward to.

October’s astrology offers a profound recalibration. Conversations may create tension as Mercury and Mars in Libra heighten our desire for justice and clarity, but this energy also encourages listening, questioning, and finding common ground.

Venus conjoining Ketu to the degree pulls us into memories and karma of the past. The Pisces Full Moon asks us to release illusions, finalize chapters, and trust spiritual guidance amid uncertainty. Pluto going direct and Jupiter in Cancer may amplify collective restructuring, pushing us to face truths while seeking safety, home, and inner stability. The New Moon in Libra marks a turning point of rebuilding and balance, and with Mars entering Scorpio, the month closes with intensity, empowerment, and the courage to move forward.

Transits:

October 2 - October 24 Mercury in Libra

October 4 Venus and Ketu at 24 degrees of Leo

October 6 Full moon at 19 degrees of Pisces Revati

October 9 - November 2 Venus in Virgo

October 13 Pluto Direct at 7 degrees of Capricorn

October 17 - Nov 16 Sun in Libra

October 18th - December 5th Jupiter in Cancer

October 21 New Moon in Libra at 4 degrees Chitra

October 27th - December 7th Mars in Scorpio

Solar Eclipse in Uttara Phalguni: A Light in the Dark Sep 19, 2025

Show notes

Hi everyone, first and foremost - notice to my friends with misophonia. I am getting over being sick and officially a mouth breather.

****Correction: At some point I mention Plutos transit and accidentally say it will be in Cap until 2024. What I intended to say is 2040. Pluto will be in Capricorn until 2040. ****

In this episode, we explore the transformative Solar Eclipse in Uttara Phalguni—a nakshatra connected to friendship, friendliness, and favors. How can we embrace one another in a time of darkness and divide? How can we stay grounded and clear when there are so many messages designed to instill outrage?

We dive into Mars’ transit through Libra, a placement that calls us to learn the art of balance and diplomacy, even in turbulent circumstances. What does it mean to stand strong in your truth while remaining fair, open-hearted, and collaborative?

We discuss Rahus transit through Aquarius and the incredibly important attention it is bringing to freedom of speech and humanitarian causes. Not mentioned in the podcast is the West Coast Health Alliance, and how this is a demonstration of both Rahu in Aquarius AND Mars/Saturn opposition in Virgo and Pisces.

Along with these themes, we review other astrological ongoings and how they shape our personal and collective journeys.

This episode is an invitation to embrace equanimity and remember that light is always present—especially when we decide to lead from the heart.

Lunar Eclipse in Purva Bhadrapada: Dissolving Illusion and Revealing Truth Sep 04, 2025

Show notes

This week, we explore the upcoming lunar eclipse in Purva Bhadrapada, as the Moon joins Rahu and the Sun joins Ketu.

This combination brings heightened sensitivity, stirring the mind and emotions while asking us to release the grip of the past and lean into future possibilities. Old matters may resurface, not to hold us back, but to give us the choice of what to carry forward and what to leave behind.

Purva Bhadrapada, governed by Jupiter, is one of the most intense and polarizing nakshatras—symbolized by the front legs of a funeral cot. Its themes remind us of impermanence, death, and transformation. This energy can feel volatile and dual in nature, but it also offers profound opportunities for truth-seeking, purification, and spiritual awakening. It urges us to strip back illusions and attachments to reveal the eternal spirit within all beings.

We’ll also discuss:

Embracing duality with neutrality, allowing ourselves to sit with both pleasure and discomfort without judgment.
Shadow sides of this eclipse—indulgence, addiction, volatility—and how to navigate them consciously.
Collective themes: transformative revelations, rumors, and intensities on the global stage, from leaders in the spotlight to ongoing health headlines.

This eclipse invites us into the fire of purification—burning away what no longer serves.

Today we discuss the final eclipse season of 2025, Virgo season, and Venus conjunct Ketu!

This month carries the intensity of eclipses - opening doorways of change that can shift our paths and invite destiny-altering opportunities. Some of us may experience opportunities that completely alter destiny!

September offers a powerful opportunity for healing, organization, and transformation. As the Sun moves through Virgo, themes of health, wellness, and renewal take center stage—encouraging us to refine routines, strengthen our bodies, and bring order to the areas of life that feel scattered.

Venus in Leo reminds us of loyalty, respect, and authenticity. Old relationships may resurface, offering chances for closure or reconnection.

Mercury in Virgo sharpens our minds, making this an excellent period for organization, communication, and clarity.

Faith Over Fear: Navigating the Knowledge of the Cosmos While Staying Sane Aug 22, 2025

Show notes

Hi everyone!

Today I address questions that I get OFTEN about navigating the fear and anxiety that can come with knowledge of astrology.

While astrology offers patterns, insights, and cosmic cycles, true peace comes from surrendering to the wisdom of the Universe itself. We reflect on how leaning into faith can calm fear, open the heart, and attune us to a supported path - even if we can't see it clearly in the moment.

This conversation is an invitation to release control and identity. It is to support you in remembering that astrology is a tool - and to walk with courage knowing that the universe holds us, guides us, and conspires for us.
