The Nightlight Astrology Podcast

✶ THE ORACLE WITHIN RETREAT ✶

In this episode of Rooted in the Stars, I reflect on my own process of clearing drawers, cabinets, and old herbs from my apothecary-and the realization that having more does not necessarily create greater ease or beauty. Sometimes harmony returns when we release what has accumulated beyond its usefulness.

🤝 SHARE THIS PODCAST EPISODE WITH A FRIEND ❣️: ><

Together, we'll explore:

● Libra, the scales, and the meaning of right relationship

● How to recognize whether your system feels burdened and stagnant or depleted and dry

● Burdock (Arctium lappa) and Yellow Dock (Rumex crispus) for clearing and releasing

● Oat Straw (Avena sativa) and Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis) for nourishment and restoration

● Nettle (Urtica dioica) as the fulcrum-an herb that builds and clears at the same time

● The equinox as a reference point for remembering what balance feels like in the body

Before reaching for more, this Libra season invites us to ask: What is ready to be removed? What nourishment is genuinely missing? What small adjustment might allow the whole system to breathe again?

Harmony is not a quantity. It is a relationship we tend, one honest adjustment at a time.

Thanks for watching and please leave a comment. How is this moment of adjustment showing up for you right now?

A Life Changing Decision Incoming — Mercury Opposes Saturn | The Nightlight Astrology Podcast Sep 17, 2026

Show notes

What if the choice you're avoiding is the one your soul came here to make?

✶ FIRST-YEAR ASTROLOGY COURSE ✶

✶ BOOK YOUR READING WITH ME ✶

This week, Mercury stands opposite Saturn — a meeting of the mind and the architect of time. It is a transit of big decisions, careful words, and the quiet weight of consequence. You may feel it as friction, as delay, as an argument you can't quite win. But look closer: Saturn is not here to punish you. It is here to help you grow up.

✶ THE ORACLE WITHIN RETREAT ✶

In this episode, I walk through five movements of this opposition — from the pressure of choosing, to the relief of changing your mind. We talk about how to sit with what's hard, how to soften when you disagree, and how to trust that necessity is the mother of invention. The stars do not decide for you. They simply turn up the volume on what your life is asking you to become.

In the Wake of Venus Pluto — What Darkness We Hide Even From Ourselves | The Nightlight Astrology Podcast Sep 16, 2026

What if the darkness you hide is not your enemy, but the place your soul has been trying to meet you?

✶ FIRST-YEAR ASTROLOGY COURSE ✶

We are now in the wake of the Venus-Pluto square — a passage where desire, shame, and the quiet underworld of the psyche come into view.

✶ THE ORACLE WITHIN RETREAT ✶

In this podcast episode, I reflect on five things Pluto transits expose: false certainty, exceptionalism, destructive desire, self-righteousness, and the painful truth of what we cannot care about.

Venus and Pluto Bring Upheaval, Healing, and Insight to Our Relationships — Horoscopes for All 12 Signs | The Nightlight Astrology Podcast Sep 15, 2026

Show notes

What happens when love meets the underworld? Venus in Scorpio square Pluto in Aquarius is moving through all 12 whole sign horoscopes, asking you to look honestly at the bonds, contracts, and desires that shape your life.

✶ FIRST-YEAR ASTROLOGY COURSE ✶

✶ BOOK YOUR READING WITH ME ✶

This is not a transit of easy answers. It is a passage of refinement. The video walks you through each sign, showing where upheaval may arrive, where healing becomes possible, and how insight can restore your relationships to something more truthful.

✶ THE ORACLE WITHIN RETREAT ✶

You are invited to listen for your Sun or rising sign. The work is consistent: show up, reflect, and receive more than you expected. Across Aries to Pisces, I trace the houses activated by this square, from social circles and vocation to family, creativity, resources, and the hidden chambers of the psyche. Relationships are not only romantic here. They are the agreements you make with people, work, community, and your own becoming.

🤝 SHARE THIS PODCAST EPISODE WITH A FRIEND ❣️: https://youtu.be/KNdMGrYxuY4

Upheaval is not the opposite of healing. It is often the door. When you stop asking love to remain untouched, you begin to meet the soul's deeper demand: to be honest, to be bound differently, to become real.

You Have Enough — How Virgo Helps You Choose What to Keep Sep 12, 2026

Show notes

As we move through the last half of Virgo season and toward the threshold of Libra, I'm exploring what it means to become truly grounded and nourished before entering a season of change.

✶ BOOK YOUR READING WITH ADAM ✶

✶ THE ORACLE WITHIN RETREAT ✶

Drawing on the mythology of Demeter and the harvest, we'll look at Virgo as a time of gathering, sorting, and preparing. I will give you a somatic experience of what it feels like to take stock of what will sustain you through the darker months ahead, what to preserve, and what to leave behind.

🤝 SHARE THIS PODCAST EPISODE WITH A FRIEND ❣️: https://youtu.be/lqFcaHLOHrU

In this episode, we explore:

- Virgo, Demeter, and the wisdom of the harvest

- The transition from Virgo into Libra and the movement from tending ourselves toward relationship and exchange

- Why grounding and nourishment are especially important during seasonal thresholds

- The Green Man and our reciprocal relationship with the living earth

- Astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus), Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), and Schisandra berry (Schisandra chinensis) as herbal allies for nourishment, resilience, and building our reserves

- Simple grounding practices like nourishing foods, walking barefoot on the earth, sitting in silence, and slowing down

- Moving beyond scarcity and discovering how tending our own roots gives us more to share with others

- Making space for the grief and uncertainty that accompany seasonal change while remembering that loss is always part of a larger cycle of renewal

As the light begins to wane and the seasons turn, this is an invitation to root deeply, gather what nourishes you, and build the inner reserves that will carry you through the changes ahead.

Show notes

Have you ever felt caught between two worlds—one where everything is clear and linear, and another where beauty, intuition, and mystery seem to speak directly to you? That is the invitation of this weekend's Mercury opposite Neptune.

✶ FIRST-YEAR ASTROLOGY COURSE ✶

✶ BOOK YOUR READING WITH ME ✶

In this video, I explore how this transit asks you to become a mediator between the ordinary and the extraordinary.

✶ THE ORACLE WITHIN RETREAT ✶

We look at the art of translating transcendental experiences into everyday words, much like the poet Mary Oliver did with such grace.

🤝 SHARE THIS PODCAST EPISODE WITH A FRIEND ❣️: https://youtu.be/VsDtmyEabmU

Yet we also face the shadow: self-deception, confusion, and the friction between your longing for harmony and your individual convictions. The opposition between Mercury in Libra and Neptune in Aries asks you to mediate between diplomacy and authenticity, between the desire for peace and the call to stand your ground.

The real practice is learning to float—to trust that you can be held when clarity is not available, and to hold the tension of opposites without collapsing into illusion or cynicism.

This transit also sets the stage for Monday's Venus-Pluto square, making this weekend a potent threshold for soul-level shifts.

A New Moon in Virgo — The Virgin and the Underworld | The Nightlight Astrology Podcast Sep 10, 2026

Show notes

What does it mean to carry something eternally youthful and whole within you, even as life asks you to descend into complexity, shadow, and imperfection?

✶ FIRST-YEAR ASTROLOGY COURSE ✶

✶ BOOK YOUR READING WITH ME ✶

This is the question at the heart of the Virgo new moon — a lunation that opens the gate to the dark half of the year and invites us to touch the earth without losing our sense of wholeness.

✶ THE ORACLE WITHIN RETREAT ✶

Virgo is often reduced to fussy perfectionism, but beneath that surface lies something far more mysterious: the virgin as one who is complete unto herself, untouched by the world's verdicts, yet fully present to its messiness.

🤝 SHARE THIS PODCAST EPISODE WITH A FRIEND ❣️: https://youtu.be/fyxHap7qirE

This new moon, forming on September 10 with a sextile to Mars in Cancer, asks us to hold both: the sacred anxiety that keeps us attentive, and the deep knowing that nothing can stain what we truly are.
