It's August 2025 and we’re stepping into eclipse season by the end of the month. I’ll walk you through all of it in this episode and invite you to join me for some of the most powerful trainings I offer.August 2nd kicks off with the Decode Your Birth Chart workshop — the one to attend if you’ve ever looked at your chart and thought, “What am I looking at?” I’ll show you how to interpret the signs, planets, and houses so you can understand your chart and others’ more clearly.August 9th brings the Full Moon in Shravana, Capricorn, an invitation to emotionally process what’s unresolved from July’s Mercury and Saturn retrogrades. This Full Moon is about listening inward, reviewing your routines, and aligning your day-to-day life with your deeper purpose. Sit in meditation. Listen to nostalgic music. Reassess what’s working and what isn’t.August 11th marks Mercury Direct in Cancer, but the shadow period continues through the month. During Mercury retrograde it's not a good time for starting new things. Let this time be about emotional catharsis, creative expression, and finishing unfinished business. I’ve been seeing tech issues, lost files, and missed details — all part of the process. Don’t resist it. Laugh at it. Flow with it.August 14th is the Become Your Own Astrologer workshop, where I share the 7 steps to practice astrology skillfully and avoid the misinformation so common in AI and online tools. There’s still no AI that’s actually trained for Vedic astrology. They’re all trained on Western. If you want to read accurate, astronomically based charts, this is where to begin.August 16th, the Sun moves into Leo, its own sign. Now’s the time to “step into your power and let it go.” It’s paradoxical, but with Ketu in Leo, the fire of personal power is being redirected toward spiritual growth. If you’ve been asking yourself, “Who am I? Where am I going?” — that’s this transit.August 17th, we get a little reprieve with the Moon exalted in Rohini, a great day for self-care, yoga, walks in nature, spa days, or anything Venusian. Ways that you feel like you’re taking care of yourself, enjoying life, enjoying the senses — very favorable.August 20th, Venus moves into Cancer, shifting the tone from emotional cleansing in Ardra to emotional nourishment. If the first half of August is about crying and catharsis, the second half is about comfort and connection. Deepen the friendship part of your relationship. If you’re single and looking to date, the second half of August is quite nice.”Watch for overindulgence or overwhelm, but lean into creating beauty, intimacy, and play.August 23rd opens the Eclipse Portal, beginning with a New Moon in Leo (Magha) — this is when everything shifts. You go into it one way, you come out another way. This is a powerful time to reflect on your identity, your lineage, and what you’re here to change. It’s no coincidence the Vedic Astrology Mentorship begins the same day. If you’ve been practicing astrology by listening to this podcast, you’re already an astrology practitioner. Now it’s time to go deeper.August 30th, Mercury enters Leo, completing its post-retrograde cycle and bringing clarity, creativity, and spiritual communication. You’ll feel this especially if you’re studying astrology, personal development, or any self-awareness practice. You’ll be ready to move forward with new awareness and clear thinking again.5 Key Ideas• “Feel it so you can heal it”• “Step into your power… and let it go” — Sun and Ketu in Leo are asking for humble strength.• “If you’re listening to this, you are practicing astrology”• “We all get the same 168 hours a week. How do you want to use that time?” — Use the Full Moon to reflect.• “Find your gifts and give them away” — That’s your purpose, and that’s what this month is about.
