Ricci King is a Virgo Sun, Libra Moon, and Aquarius Rising. Join us as we explore the planetary shifts shaping our lives right now. We talk about the transformational energies of Pluto in Aquarius, Neptune in Aries, and Saturn in Pisces, and how they’re rewriting our collective algorithm.

Ricci shares deeply personal reflections about clearing karmic patterns, the power of degree theory, and stepping into spiritual sovereignty. We discuss what it means to live soul-led lives in a collapsing empire, how astrology helps us make sense of uncertainty, and why now is the time for authentic connection, radical self-care, and reclaiming our power.
