AstrologyNow - Vedic Astrology Guide

Hello everyone! Welcome back to AstrologyNow! As always, we are so grateful to have you! On this segment we discuss the beautiful full moon in Shravana nakshatra that will reign us in for the month of August. Shravana is all about "hearing the unheard" and tapping into the sides of life that go unseen. When we think about it, some of the most compelling parts of life are intangible: faith, joy, Spirit, trust, love... How can we connect with these intangible, yet highly inspirational, facets of our lives with more clarity and authenticity? What may be clouding the eye of our inner awareness and keeping us from fully enjoying our life as it currently is? In this podcast we continue this discussion and explore what this full moon may elicit on a global and personal level. I hope that you enjoy it!

Hello everyone! Happy Day of Venus! 💫 Today we discuss the upcoming transit of Venus retrograde. What happens when the planet of love moves backwards?! Venus is the planet of love, romance, and relationship. When this planet turns retrograde - it is a time to reflect, review, and reassess all things love! Venus retrograde always offers a profound time of potential healing and release... particularly in regards to matters of the heart. This period is also notorious for bringing exes back into the picture, people emerging from the past, past life connections being discovered, or stirring old and latent wounds. How can we use this time to advance spiritually, emotionally, and karmically? Listen to the full segment to hear this forecast and contemplations!

Hello everyone! The new moon is amongst us and we are fortunate to have a lovely beacon on the horizon! Though the energy of July can still be intense for many, we are being offered a moment to pause, reflect, and generate a sense of renewal in ourselves and for the world around us. This new moon will be in the asterism of Punarvasu within the sidereal sign of Cancer. Punarvasu is steeped in regenerative energy and reminds us to reflect on the cycles and patterns that are upholding our daily lives. This nakshatra is associated to Aditi, the divine mother, who offers abundance, prosperity, and fortune - and also has a connotation to the cyclical nature of our reality. Nothing is ever meant to stay the same. Change is inevitable. But just as change is inevitable, the promise of renewal and regrowth is imminent. It is always just a matter of time... In this segment we dive deeper into the significance of Punarvasu as an asterism as well as what to be mindful of moving further into the month of July.

Happy Friday, everyone! July is *quite the eventful month*. I believe this month will be influential in how the rest of the year shapes up! So certainly pay attention! If you've been listening to AstrologyNow, we have been discussing the first Pluto return of the United States and what that could look like. The exact return will occur in the fall of 2024. (Interesting.) Pluto is the planet of death and rebirth. Capricorn is the sign of government structures, economy, and currency. It's been incredibly fascinating to observe as these talking points become more and more prominent with the rise of cryptocurrency and the push to digitize wealth! In terms of government, as individuals wake up the injustices of the system, more and more people are demanding a change. All of that to say, if we KNOW big change is on the horizon - how will events unfold to lead to this massive transit occurring in 2024? In this segment we also discuss the transit of Mars in Leo, which will increase ones ability to be courageous in their personal affairs and support us in bold action. Venus will also retrograde, and is notorious for bringing exes back from the past, past life companions, or relationship patterns to reassess. This is just the tip of the iceberg for July - listen to the full segment for more!

Happy Friday! And happy full moon as we discuss one of the BEST days of the year... in my humble opinion, of course! This full moon in the sidereal sign of Sagittarius marks the very special day of Guru Purnima. This is the day of honoring our teachers, mentors, guides, or anyone in life who has acted as an inspiration. Remember that "guru" translates to "dispeller of ignorance". A guru can be anyone who has supported us in bringing light to darkness within our consciousness... It is a day to humbly remind ourselves of the grace received in life and how precious the gift of knowledge truly is. We spend time discussing the light of the full moon as well as the upcoming gandanta transits. Gandanta refers to "drowning" or a "spiritual knot". As planets pass through gandanta degrees, knots of karma can seem to unravel in our lives and in the world around. This is a profound time of releasing ourselves from patterns that have kept us bound in the past. Listen to the full segment for more!

Hello everyone! Welcome to another Friday or day of Venus! Today we discuss the transit of Saturn and what to expect during this period of Saturn retrograde. Saturn is the planet of karmic retribution, delays, challenges, responsibility, burdens, and restrictions. However, Saturn is also the planet that rewards hard work, represents instilled wisdom, creates structure and safety, and provides us with longevity. Saturn really isn't all bad!... But we should always be a little cautious when assessing the Great Malefic! Saturn in Aquarius will bring focus and emphasis to humanitarian pursuits and righting wrongs of the past. Aquarius will also bring a focus to health and wellness, space exploration, and general focus on all things "futuristic". As Saturn retrogrades, the energy of Saturn intensifies. That said, we may see even more powerful groups coming together, new and futuristic innovations, and perhaps even some new technology with health and vitality. In this segment we discuss what else to watch out for collectively. On a personal level, it's an opportunity to reflect on limitations, boundaries, or challenges we have been facing in life. Are the limitations we are experiencing truly external? Or are they in our perception of the world? We spend time philosophizing on what SaturnRX could mean personally AND what it means for each of the 12 signs.

Happy Friday, everyone! This week we have a very special new moon in the sidereal sign of Gemini, Mrigashira nakshatra, on June 17, 2023. Mrigashira is symbolized by the head of a deer, ruled by the planet Mars, and associated to Soma and the deity of Brahma. Soma represents the bliss within us while Brahma is literally the god of creation. This nakshatra is very much associated to following bliss, seeking happiness, and chasing fulfillment of the heart. The Mars influence makes this nakshatra extremely passion driven while the influence of Brahma stirs a deep and intrinsic creative impulse. All of that to say, this new moon is particularly potent for touching the center of the heart and connecting with your true and deep desires. The creative potential is so supportive for intention setting or practices of manifestation. However, the energy of the deer can make this a time of feeling scattered, distracted, or timid. Be mindful to stay grounded and regulated without making any decisions that are too quick or impulsive... We discuss this new moon in length and also review other astrological on-goings.

Hello everyone! Welcome to another Friday interview! You're not going to want to miss this one! In this segment we interview James Braha, yet again, for another amazing and insightful segment. Pluto is a massively powerful planet that is not often discussed in Vedic astrology. Pluto is the planet of control, power, destruction, death and rebirth, metamorphosis, and fate. Today we discuss the planet Pluto when aspecting different planets in a horoscope.  It's important to remember that the chart should always be read holistically - but this podcast should still leave you with a lot to contemplate and explore for yourself.  James Braha:  http://www.jamesbraha.com http://www.jamesbraha.com/books.html Part One of Pluto through the Houses: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2xAgj27eAed3UkRQMAKp0M?si=dCy9WIbGR5uBGGn5rzpOZQ Interview playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4q308ykQSTBRjKrHHDCSkM?si=880c8f970c224d57 Work with Christine: Website: innerknowing.yoga astrologynowpodcast@gmail.com instagram: astrologynow_podacst keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, pluto, James Braha

In this segment we discuss the upcoming full moon in the sidereal sign of Scorpio in Jyeshta nakshatra. This is an extremely potent full moon! The sign of Scorpio invokes deep transformation, change, and expansion - while also being notorious for stirring fear, anxiety, and instability! It's fascinating that what generally PREVENTS us from change is fear and that both of these are each sides to the coin of Scorpio... which side will you choose during this full moon week? Don't forget that the karma control planets of Mars and Venus will be conjunct in Cancer during this period of time... Cancer is the sign of the home, land, real estate, the mother, and *the homeland*. This could certainly create instability and perhaps even discord emerging within countries and their citizens. In our own personal lives, there may be some themes around these cancerian matters... We dive deeper into other astrological events and what we may anticipate for the collective. We briefly review some current events and demonstrate their astrological correlations. Please keep in mind that I discuss how all of these transits will impact you personally at patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast Work with Christine: Website: innerknowing.yoga astrologynowpodcast@gmail.com instagram: astrologynow_podacst patreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon

Happy Friday! In this segment we cover the "main" transits for the month of June 2023 and spend time assessing the month holistically. There are a few main themes this month, but perhaps the most notable is the planet Venus!... The planet of love and romance is on the move and will become rather pronounced and emphasized. Matters of the heart may really come to the forefront and it may be a time of confronting issues around security, safety, and stability in love and romance. We discuss what we can expect and how to best channel our own energy. We also explore the new and full moon, the conjunction of Rahu and Jupiter, and the retrograde of Saturn in the sidereal Aquarius. Will one of these transits influence you the most?
