The Astrology of Where You Live (Intermediate Session)
Hi everyone! In this segment I share an interesting and exciting tool that I've been using with my family.
Astrology works. Therefore, everything will have a birth chart and synastry/compatibility will work in the same way for all relationships.
That said, if you've ever listened to any of my relationship synastry podcasts or watched any videos, like this one, you'll find that this isn't very different!
States, countries, territories - they have personalities! And depending on the energy of the space, it will impact us in various ways.
Why do you love Idaho while your husband hates it? Why is it that every time you go to New York, you seem to be low energy? Why does Montana just set you free?
This is all due to some astrological significance between you and the space.
Steps:
1. Calculate your birth chart
2. Calculate the spaces chart. You don't *need* a time to do this, because we are most interested in how the states planets relate to YOU.
3. See any personal connection. Look for planets in the same sign as you or planets opposing your natal planets. Remember that, often, Moon/Venus/Mercury/Jupiter will create lighter energy. Mars/Saturn may be a little harsher. Rahu/Ketu is karmic. To be basic here (:
4. Look to see the relationship between your atmakaraka and darakaraka. AK is the planet with highest degrees. DK is lowest. Maybe you have the same AK as the state you love, its AK is on your ascendant. Maybe the states AK is in the same sign as your DK!
I have done this with several charts and if you've lived in a place for a long time or find yourself ever returning to a land - there will absolutely be SOMETHING significant that you find.
I hope you enjoy!

Summer Solstice: Embrace the Solar Glow
Hi everyone!
In this segment we spend time paying homage to the beautiful planet Surya, or the Sun.
The Sun represents courage, self-esteem, confidence, nourishment, and royalty. The Sun is truly responsible for "main character energy", if you will. But be mindful! Too much of that can "burn people out" or fry fertile land!
This podcast in intended to inspire you to embrace inner confidence with self-appreciation and faith in the path of the divine... regardless of external influences.
Enjoy these bright Summer months and create the life you deserve!

Full Moon in Sagittarius: When Destruction Is Welcome
Hi everyone! Happy Friday per usual.
On this segment we discuss the powerful nakshatras of Mula and Ardra... these opposing nakshatras are notorious for their destruction, calamity, and mayhem.
However, there are times in life when this energy is absolutely essential. I can think of so many examples in my life when I've been so grateful for forces powerful enough to destroy negative influences, attachments, or energetic ties. I am sure that you can relate!
In this segment, we discuss how this full moon may influence you and the world around, and how to best flow with the energies that be.

June Horoscope: Uranus in Taurus + Research
Hi everyone!
Please excuse my vata (windy/scattered) mind! I've been on the move and still working on finding my level ground!
On this segment we discuss the massive shift of Uranus into the sign of Taurus and what this could mean on a global level.
We explore the last few times that Uranus was in Taurus, which reveals that Uranus was in Taurus for the Revolutionary War, Civil War, and during WWII.
The US is having a Pluto return this year, as well as the beginning of a return for Uranus. Those are two returns in EARTH SIGNS - which is all about structures, government, wealth, economy, and currency.
If you're more interested in personal transits, you can skip ahead to 20:42.
After this mark, we discuss how to best utilize the energy of the transits on a personal level. We discuss Mars, Gemini season, and Saturn retrograde.
I hope you all enjoy!

New Moon in Taurus: Sensuality, Receptivity, and Reveling in Presence
Hi everyone! Happy (almost) new moon in Rohini Nakshatra!
Taurus is all about the senses, creativity, taking things slow, patience, and the long haul.
Rohini is a nakshatra held within Taurus that is the epitome of creative energy. Rohini is governed by Brahma - the creator of the Universe!
This nakshatra is also notorious for beauty, love, romance, and sensory experiences.
In this podcast we discuss accessing sensuality through being present and the power we have in creating our own reality through perception.

An Interview on Sade Sati and Saturn Return with Randy Rudloff: The Most Feared Transits in Vedic Astrology
Hi everyone! Happy Friday!
I am so excited to share an interview with, one of my favorite souls on the path, Randy Rudloff.
Randy spends time speaking to his experience with not just one cycle of Saturn return and Sade Sati... but multiple!
He shares how each experience offered different challenges, changes, and struggles - but also gifts, insight, and shaped him into the individual he is today.
The conversation is rich with wisdom and a bit of good ol' Texan humor as well.

May Horoscope 2024 + Full Moon in Scorpio
Hi everyone!
First, please excuse a persistent "beep"... apparently a fire alarm needs batteries!
Second, here is a mildly late May horoscope. I hope it serves you well.
We dive into handling challenging transits, putting faith above fear, and how to best utilize the energy of May.
We have an upcoming full moon that will be debilitated in the sign of Scorpio. How can we handle the potential for turbulent emotions, stubborn natures, and iciness?

Jupiter in Taurus: Horoscopes for All 12 Signs
Happy Akshaya Tritiya!
I can't believe we are already experiencing our transit of Jupiter in Taurus..
In this segment we spend time exploring the combination of Jupiter in Taurus and what this will mean for us individually and collectively.
Taurus is a fixed, earth sign and governed by the planet Venus.
This being said, Taurus is all about slowing down, taking a moment to pause, and to think of the "long game".
This is a time to learn from our senses! How can we see the divinity in others? More deeply listen to the ones we love? Choose food from a place of higher wisdom?
In addition, we cover each of the 12 signs with personalized horoscopes. Here are the time stamps:
Aries: 17:22
Taurus: 20:20
Gemini: 23:39
Cancer: 27:32
Leo: 32:35
Virgo: 35:35
Libra: 39:20
Scorpio: 41:56
Sagittarius: 44:39
Capricorn: 47:30
Aquarius: 50:45
Pisces: 53:13
