All right. Well, hello and welcome.
Thanks for joining me here for a special episode of Embodied
Astrology. My name is Renee and I have just
finished in the last two days or so recording horoscopes for the
seasons ahead from Gemini through Virgo season.
And I wanted to come on and do a special episode to give a little
bit of a forecast forward, not just through Gemini season, but
from this point where we are at the beginning of Gemini season,
which is the midpoint between eclipses, through Virgo season
into the next set of eclipses. I'm recording for you on the
Moon's day. It is Monday, May 18th.
It is about 7:45 PM Pacific Time.
It is Taurus season, just the last couple of days of Taurus
season and Mercury has gone into Gemini, Moved into Gemini last
night and today. Venus has left Gemini and moved
into Cancer. Mars has moved into Taurus.
They are sextile with each other and they will be there for a
good chunk of Gemini season. Venus will go into Leo, but Mars
will stay in Taurus through the season.
Mercury is going to make a sextile to Neptune in a couple
of hours and I have had a journey getting here to record
this. I am in a major moment of
transition in my life, and that means that I don't have a stable
place to record. And so I am using the spaces
that I have access to. And the space that I'm in
tonight is a really beautiful space, as you might be able to
tell from the little bit that you can see in the video.
And I can see the sun setting through the windows of an old
Abbey, the church that I'm in right now.
And I'm in the office of a beloved of mine.
So I just want to say a big thank you to Ayana Kai and
Sharita Town for letting me use this space to record this
episode and a little bit of the lay of the land.
As I mentioned, I have just finished recording 48
horoscopes, so all 12 signs through Four Seasons and that's
quite an undertaking. I started to do batch recordings
for multiple seasons last year because I as an astrologer, I'm
always timing my life with astrology.
And I was looking at the astrology of the upcoming times
and recognizing how it would be influencing my chart and
predicting for myself that I would be in a unstable
situation. And that has come to pass also
through my planning and strategy.
It has also been somewhat intentional.
But as a teacher of mine has said and as I like to say, every
time is a good time if you know what the time is good for.
And where we are in 2026 and where we have been, I would say
really since 2020 is in a time that needs us to be adaptable
and ready to change and ready to meet the moment.
And for those of us whose charts are getting heavily influenced,
and you don't need to know your chart placements to know if
you're getting a lot of influences, you can probably
just feel it. It is probably a good idea to
try to loosen up your life a little bit, to allow yourself to
change. And change requires presence.
And so part of my batch recording strategy is to give
myself presence. So I work intensely for a couple
of weeks, do a bunch of recording, and then I have a
different kind of rhythmicity in my schedule if I'm not planning
for that every month. And it's also been a really
interesting way to deepen into cycles of time and to also
practice divination in a different way.
I really have to let go of needing to know what's happening
in the world and just TuneIn with energy.
And for me, this has been a blessing and it's part of what
I'm trying to practice right now.
So in the reading that I'm about to give, this will be a general
reading for the collective that finds it.
And this is for all signs. And this reading is going to
explore some of what I think is most notable from now through
Virgo season. And so as I mentioned, Gemini
season is the midpoint between eclipses.
There were eclipses in February and March earlier this year and
there will be eclipses again in August.
And the eclipses are in the mutable signs moving into the
fixed signs. And right now we are in a fixed
sign moving into a mutable sign right now being the day that I'm
recording for you cusp almost of Taurus season into Gemini.
So I'll just do my thing, and my thing tends to be tangential.
I love a good tangent and sensational.
I think through the language of the body, so I'm going to
describe sensations and energies.
I will do my best to avoid forecasting world events or
things like that, and we'll speak more to the energies that
I feel. So take what works and leave the
rest. Remember that not everything is
for everyone always, no matter who's talking or what they're
talking about. And make the meanings that are
most meaningful for you. All right, so I want to start
just by talking about the exceptional circumstance of the
astrology in 2026. If you listened or watched your
2026 Year Ahead reading, I did those for all signs.
Also, in a batch recording last Sagittarius season, you heard me
say that 2026 is a pivot year or a keystone year, and astrologers
for centuries have been forecasting and predicting 2026
to be a year of massive and profound change.
And we are inside of it now. Or perhaps you're somewhere in
the future listening back and reflecting, and indeed, it feels
like a massive year of a lot of change from inside of it.
It may not be obvious that we are really at a pivot point and
that things will be changing immensely and that the world
that we have all known over the last decades, however long we
may have been here, is going to become a very different world.
That's my prediction. I think that we are on the
precipice of living in a very different kind of world, but the
precipice and astrological time could be anywhere from 7 years
to maybe 100 or so. I think within our lifetimes we
will definitely see really profound change and in the next
7 to 17 years, following the transits of the outer planets
currently I think we will find that we are living in a very new
and different world. In 2024 the outer planet started
to change from Earth and water signs into fire and Air signs
and the 1st planet to change signs was Pluto.
Pluto had been in Capricorn since 2008, and in 2024 it made
its final ingress into Aquarius. Pluto will stay in Aquarius
until 2043. In and out in the last year or
so, as outer planets do tend to retrograde back and forth
between signs because they move so slowly.
In 2025, the planets Neptune and Uranus also began to change
signs. Neptune moved into the early
degree of Aries and then retrograded back into Pisces.
And Uranus moved into the early degrees of Gemini and then
retrograded back into Taurus. And both of them moved into the
new signs in the middle of the year and then they retrograded
back at the end of the year. And so 2025 started to have a
little bit of taste of all three planets having moved out of
Earth and Water signs and into fire and Air signs.
Neptune had been in Pisces since 20/11/2012.
Uranus had been in Taurus since 2018.
The outer planets are all planets that have fairly long
orbital cycles, Uranus being the shortest orbital cycle at 84
years, which is about the life of a healthy human lifespan, or
about the length of a healthy human lifespan if we're
fortunate enough to live that long.
Neptune takes about a century and a half, and Pluto takes
about 2 1/2 centuries to orbit the Sun.
And so their orbits are beyond our lifetime expectancies, and
their orbits and tenures in any Zodiac sign speak to
generational and collective experiences.
And as Stephen Forrest says, the outer planets are really weird.
The influences of them when we track them with astrology are
strange. They're stranger than strange.
They're weirder than weird. To try to fathom what they evoke
is to stretch into the limits of our imagination and then to
reach the capacities of our own imagination.
The places that they bring us to in our personal consciousness as
long term transits are into the depths and into the falling
apart and breaking away of our egos and illusions and delusions
into the dissolving of what we might think of as reality and
into some profound awakenings and hopefully deep and powerful
transformation and liberation. On a collective level, the outer
planets are describing the movement of time across
generation and through society and culture as individuals.
And I think that as individual people, we're kind of like
individual cells in one body. We're so small and there's so
many of us, and we all exist in our own locations and we have
only the perspective that we have.
There are many people who are very conscious and very awakened
and very imaginative and very compassionate and can expand the
limits of their perception, but none of us is capable of total
perception in terms of everything that life on Earth
has to offer us. So the outer planets are working
through multitudes, and not only the human multitudes, but the
environmental multitudes, the atmospheric multitudes, the
plant and the animal life multitudes, and we are all
affecting each other and we are all changing all the time.
And so the weirder than weirder, stranger than strange, exceeds
and extends beyond human perception and consciousness and
life, and I'm sure that it extends far beyond the Earth and
into the influences of space and the stuff that we're made of.
So in 2025, all of the outer planets started to resonate in
their new energies and fire and air energies.
But then, as I mentioned, at the end of the year, towards October
and November, Uranus and Neptune retrograded back into Earth and
water science. So you might be able to recall
what the middle of 2025 felt like for you.
You could think about June or July through October or November
and just what was happening in your life.
Was anything starting to change? Were things beginning to
accelerate? Were different kinds of
momentums starting to make themselves known in terms of
what was accelerating? Were some things becoming less
sticky in your life and losing their grasp, perhaps on the
material foundations of your attachments or realities?
In October and November they both returned to Earth and water
signs, and they were there until fairly recently.
So Neptune moved back into Aries in January of 2026, and Uranus
has come back into Gemini as of late April 2026.
So between the end of 2025 and the beginning of 2026, you may
have also noticed a little bit of receding kind of quality of
whatever may have accelerated or started to change in the middle
of 2025. There may have been issues in
the realms of earth and water that needed you to attend to
them. And symbolically speaking, in
astrology, the realms of earth and water are the realms of the
material and the emotional. And so in the physical and in
the relational, you may have been dealing with some things.
And the physical includes all things physical, your body, your
stuff, your money, your house, the earth, the land, etcetera.
And relational includes all of your bonds and your feelings,
your internal experience, emotional, psychological
experience, etcetera. In January Neptune entered Aries
and then in February Saturn also re entered Aries.
Like Neptune, Saturn had a brief visit to Aries in 2025 and for
the last 2 1/2 years of Neptune's tenure in Pisces,
Saturn was there as well. Now Saturn is a slow moving
planet, but not nearly as slow as the outer planets.
It has a 29 year orbit around the Sun and Saturn comes into
contact or into conjunction with Neptune once every 30-7 years.
And the Saturn Neptune conjunctions are historic
events. They are times on Earth that are
full of world building but also world ending.
There are times when empires fall apart, when boundaries are
blurred and sometimes dissolve and sometimes are erected.
They are often times of obscuration, of deeper
intentionality when it comes to the forces of colonization and
war. They are times of mass
imagination when a lot of people can feel that palpably the world
is changing, and Saturn represents a kind of bridge or
linking between the outer planets and the inner planets,
or between what we we might think of as transpersonal and
personal. Saturn links the energies of
Neptune into our personal lives by making Neptune's resonance
palpable. Neptune was actually discovered
by astronomers and space scientists when it was conjunct
with Saturn and this might be a little bit of a symbol of how
Saturn can make Neptune real. Some of Neptune's keywords
include illusion, delusion, confusion, fog.
It can be linked with a very subtle resonance and a vibratory
quality that can be really hard to put your finger on.
It is said to manifest through our dreams and in medical
astrology is linked with the pineal gland, which is the
guardian of the liminal state, into the dream world.
Saturn, by contrast, is linked to our skin and our bones and
really brings us into the felt sense, into the materiality of
our lives, into the obstruction sometimes of the density of our
lives and the challenges that we face.
But the thing about challenge is that it forces us to build
strength. So when Saturn and Neptune come
together, there are often experiences in our lives or in
the world where it feels like there's a challenge to create a
dream and make a dream reality. For many people, it may feel
that the reality of the times is exceedingly challenging and
requires an immense amount of fortitude to survive, if
survival is possible at all. Saturn and Neptune came together
in Aries this year, in 2026 on February 20th, and they came
together at the very first degree of Aries, which is the
first degree of the Zodiac itself.
And this is notable. I don't exactly know when the
last time this conjunction happened at this degree.
I've heard that it was in the BCE and I've heard that it was
at a time when patriarchy was beginning.
Now I'm just going to leave that there because I don't have my
references on hand. I That's all that I've heard and
I can't remember where or who. The fact that these two planets
came together at the very first degree of the Zodiac is
something that many astrologers have contemplated and marveled
upon and have felt to be very significant.
The first degree of the Zodiac is a place where a new life
emerges, a new beginning happens.
It's the very first contact of a match with Flint.
It is the very, very beginning of the spark of life.
And Saturn and Neptune had been moving very close together for
about 2 1/2 years prior to that, through the last sign of the
Zodiac through Pisces, and many people have felt that.
There is a dying of certain elements of the world right now.
Certain worlds are dying, and certainly empires are
dissolving, and particular dreams about what it means to be
a human and alive on planet Earth are changing rapidly.
So 2026 begins a new dream with Saturn and Neptune in the very
first degrees of Aries. But these two are in contact
with Uranus in Gemini and Pluto in Aquarius.
And Pluto is the slowest moving body of all of them, and
therefore it's still in the very, very early degrees of
Aquarius. And so as Uranus comes into
Gemini, the fastest moving with the exception of Saturn, it is
starting to catch up by orb of degree in aspect to a trine with
Pluto. And a trine is a 120° aspect and
it typically happens between planets and signs of the same
element. So Uranus in Gemini is Uranus
moving through an air sign, and Pluto in Aquarius is Pluto
moving through an air sign. Gemini is mutable air or movable
air, and Aquarius is fixed air, but air talks to air.
The breeze becomes a wind fairly easily, and the outer planets in
this configuration can work very fluidly with one another.
In terms of their influences, they are not obstructing each
other, they are strengthening one another's influence.
Gemini and Aquarius are sextile with Aries, and that's a 60°
aspect. Aries is a fire sign, and fire
and air are complementary energies.
They're both considered to be young energies.
They move up and out. The sextile aspect is a lending
aspect. It's complementary.
It's catalyzing and kind of like good friends, you know, might
egg each other on, especially fire and air friends might
encourage each other to get bigger, bolder, louder, take
more risks, try new things. That's kind of how these
energies are working together. So Pluto in Aquarius is bringing
the energy of the underworld. This is Pluto symbolism into the
sign of the masses or the many. This is the symbolism of
Aquarius. And Aquarius also is often
associated with technology and in particular the elements of
technology that can change mass consciousness or mass groups of
people and the way that groups of people can adopt or embody a
group mind. Pluto as a symbol of the
underworld invites us to explore the ideas of dying, death,
transformation or composting, and then regeneration,
recomposition and ultimately rebirth.
So Pluto process is meant to bring us through a deep
underworld process. It's meant to help us break down
what is no longer in service of life.
It's meant to help us compost. Compost is stinky stuff, but
also very valuable and certainly essential for regeneration and
recomposition and rebirth. So the process that we can
TuneIn with in the masses right now, in the collective of
humanity, and also in the way that humanity is becoming
LinkedIn different ways through technologies, through
communication, whether that is linked through surveillance
technologies or linked through the ways that we're sharing
information with one another or both.
And many other ways that we connect, including psychic
connection, including generating group resonance in different
ways and influencing each other in different ways.
We are in for a time between 2024 and 2043 where our
consciousness, this is an Aquarian word as well, will be
taken through a transformative journey.
And it seems to be true, at least in my perspective and what
I've learned in my somewhat short life.
An observation that it often takes the worst to bring out the
best, at least in the current iteration of humanity.
It's my belief that we're born into our best, and it's my
observation that many of us are taught to forget that fairly
quickly, and the process of remembering can sometimes be
brutal and deeply heartbreaking and full of tragedy.
The forces of forgetting how we can be our best and how we are
our best are forces that are deeply ancestral and long
standing, ancient twisted karmas that we're all a part of, that
are thousands of years, if not 10s of thousands of years deep
and moving through our genetic codes and consciousness.
And in this particular iteration of of human experience really
seems to be coiled around the forces of colonization which
have displaced many of us. I think probably all of us, us
being the humans at least on some level.
So even for those who are lucky enough to still have ancestral
memory and connection to the land and to their people who
have come from that land, the land itself has been harmed at
least through the inter permeation and interweaving of
the elements of the water, of the air, and also the migration
and the movement of peoples. There is not a soul on earth at
this point who doesn't bear the trauma and tragedy of
colonization in their imprints. And these traumas and tragedies
served to dislocate us. They dismember us, and we forget
that we belong to one another, and we forget that we belong to
the land and to the earth. And that creates a real division
in terms of how we're able to locate ourselves inside of
community and place. And it really strengthens the
worst parts of our egos. So it strengthens the ways that
we can other each other, which is then what allows us to kill
and torture and enslave one another.
And that's really gotten us, in my opinion, pretty far away from
the best that we can be. So here we are in 2026, and the
worst of human potential is certainly palpable inside of a
global human experience. But maybe also so is the best.
And it's my belief that we have begun our underworld process and
underworld journey and there are many who are here who we're
always remembering and always seeking remembering.
And there are many who are awakening now to remember what
they always already knew, which is connection.
So we are interdependent and infinitely connected beings.
We don't breathe without each other.
We don't eat or drink or have any kind of consciousness
without relationship in multidimensional,
multidirectional ways. And that is what I believe the
future is remembering. And where we are headed is
towards reconnection, regeneration, reunification and
remembering of human consciousness with the greater
consciousness that we are part of, which includes the Earth and
all that the Earth is made of, because the Earth is also a body
in space. So we have Neptune, dreams,
fantasy, imagination, illusion, delusion in the sign of Aries.
And Aries as a fire sign represents a self, a singular
self, a body, a me, a you. Aries wants to exist, and all of
us have Aries in our charts. And to exist on human in a human
life on Earth is dangerous and challenging, and it's a fight.
And so Aries brings us to the fight.
Aries is a warrior energy, but to exist in human body on earth
is also potentially a fabulous and extremely enjoyable thing.
And there are lots of pleasures here on earth and many things
that we could desire. And so Aries is also a lover and
full of desire and full of passion.
And this is about getting what we want as well.
So we might think about Aries as life impulse, the life impulse
to live. And that life impulse to live is
getting catalyzed. It's getting the friendly and
sometimes little bit of competitive or mischievous nudge
from Pluto in Aquarius and also now from Uranus in Gemini.
Now Uranus has recently entered Gemini as I'm recording for you.
It hasn't even been a month since Uranus has come here now
to stay, and it will be here for seven years until 2033.
I don't know if I said that Neptune will be in Aries until
2038. Uranus is considered to be very
resonant with Gemini as a sign. Some astrologers will say that
Uranus is a higher octave of Mercury and Mercury is
considered to be the ruler of Gemini.
In our bodies. Gemini rules the nervous system.
It rules thinking and conversing and language.
But before it gets into communication, Gemini is an
energy that has to do with meaning making and putting
information and data together. And we pick up information and
data through all of our sense organs.
And then we tell stories about all of that information.
And then we translate those stories into the ways that we
act and behave and communicate through gesture and tonality and
facial expressions and of course words.
And all of this is Geminis terrain.
And Mercury is the mover of all of this.
So we might think about Mercury as a symbol of an electrical
conduit. I love Mercury symbol.
Mercury is a planetary psychopomp.
They are a dual natured being and they travel betooks and
between the world's they are equally welcome and at home in
the lands of the living and the lands of the dead.
And Mercury in this way travels in our consciousness between
what is conscious and what is unconscious and in the ways that
we tell stories and make our life meanings out of stories.
Mercury is the interlocutor. So it accesses information that
is part of the deep past in terms of collective symbolism
and story that resonates across time and space and through
culture and society and families.
And then it tells us stories about who we are and what we're
experiencing. And it engages all of our senses
and sense making, world making and word making.
So Uranus is a higher octave of Mercury, rules electrical
impulses in a big way, and the awakening factor of
consciousness when suddenly we are struck and where Mercury
might help us put together data and tell stories and engage our
senses and consciousness in kind of multiple directions at once,
Uranus invokes and inspires a kind of whole system synthesis.
And sometimes you'll hear astrologers talk about Uranus as
the light bulb going on, the aha moment, the Einstein moment.
And ideally, we can work with Uranus in these ways to really
awaken our consciousness and realize what thus far has been
beyond the logic or rationale of what we are able to perceive
through our tired old stories. And you know what's next?
So Uranus was in Taurus since 2018, but after it's little
brief entry into Gemini last year, now it has come into
Gemini and it will be here for about 7 years now.
Taurus is a very different energy than Gemini.
It is a slow moving dense sign of the earth and it doesn't
change very easily. But Gemini is a fast moving air
sign and Gemini is mutable air, so it changes very easily and it
moves in multiple directions all at the same time.
As a symbol that relates with our nervous system and synapses
and neurons and sense making and storytelling, you can imagine
the multitudes and variability and possibilities that Gemini
likes to play in. And so Uranus in this space is
bringing this vibe to the collective as well as to
wherever Gemini may be in your chart.
So these are the outer planets and this is their situation in
2026. They have come into a minor
trine or a talent trine. Uranus and Pluto are trying with
one another. They are sextile with Neptune
and Aries. All of their energies are
flowing very quickly and rapidly.
And Saturn is there this year as well.
Saturn will start to separate fairly quickly and by 2028 we'll
move on and into Taurus. But for now, Saturn is there as
well. And so there is of course,
always a challenge with Saturn, but the challenge is to make
things real. And it is also the support that
we have is to make things real. So we can make a lot of strange
things stranger than strange things real in 2026, as all of
these outer planets talk so fluidly and quickly to one
another. And I think that there are many
new ideas, massive transformations in human
consciousness, and bold new beginnings that really want to
take shape. And Saturn would like to help us
move through the portal into the manifestation and creation of it
all. And it will be labor.
It will be work. And that is one of the most
important things about 2026 is we have to be for real about it.
It's a good time to be serious in playful ways.
Playful energy is definitely one of the best ways to get things
moving right now. Playfulness is very exciting.
It is attractive and I would say it's a lot more alluring and
potentially transformative than fear.
And playfulness also deeply resonates in the fire and the
air modalities and will be an even stronger influence later
this year or not so much later because it's happening in the
next few months. And this is part of why I'm
recording for you. But this influence will continue
to strengthen and become even more palpable and bold and
accessible as Venus and then Jupiter go into Leo and the
eclipse axis changes out of Virgo and Pisces and goes into
Leo and Aquarius. So I'll just say that the
eclipses have been in the signs and the seasons of Pisces and
Virgo for the last two years or so.
I'm recording for you in May of 2026 and we've had eclipses in
Pisces and Virgo since September of 2024.
Eclipses tend to wobble between signs and so we'll continue to
have eclipses in Virgo and Pisces until early in 2027.
February of 2027, we get the last one, but I'm going to get
there in a second. OK.
So this is the groundwork. This is the the frame that we're
working inside of is these outer planets.
And now I want to talk to you about the seasons that are
coming up and I'm going to talk about Gemini through Pisces
season. And what I want to focus on are
the stimulations or the activations of the outer
planets. So there's a lot that's going on
in terms of mundane astrology that is other than this.
And I did my best to break some of it down in the season ahead
readings I do for each sign. So check out your mini readings,
your horoscope readings. But right now I just want to
think about what the outer planets are kind of getting fed
by when it comes to contact with each other and contact with the
inner planets. I'll also talk about the
eclipses and then I'm going to get into thinking a little bit
about the retrogrades and one other movement that feels pretty
important to talk about this year.
So on May 18th it is the cusp of Gemini season and Mercury has
just moved into Gemini and the Sun will move into Gemini in two
days. On May 20th.
As Mercury moves into Gemini and then the Sun, they immediately
come into contact with Uranus. After they come into contact
with Uranus, they immediately go on to sextile Saturn and Neptune
to square the nodal axis, the eclipse points and trine Pluto
in Aquarius. So between basically today or
yesterday, we've had the first contact of Mercury with Uranus.
So May 17th and May 26th, Mercury and the Sun are
activating this minor trying and they're activating the
configuration from the sign of Gemini.
Mercury is at home in Gemini. So it is very strong there.
It's very fast there. It's having a good time.
And this is a lot of new connections, potentially.
So again, this is a sign and energy that rules our neurons
and nervous systems, our thoughts, our communications,
and the ways that we put information and data together.
And the world is changing, and so are you.
And so the beginning of Gemini season might feel like you're
being impressed by a whole lot of new possibilities.
Now, as I said, we are at the midpoint between eclipses, and
we had eclipses earlier this year in February and March, and
we'll have eclipses again in August.
And as the sun and Mercury come into contact by square with the
nodal axis, Venus and Mars are also changing signs.
Venus is moving into Cancer and Mars is moving into Taurus and
they are coming into contact with the nodal axis and Venus is
squaring Neptune in Aries and Mars is moving towards a square
with Pluto in Aquarius. Also within this period of time
Venus will square Saturn a couple of days later.
So we could even include up through the 28th with this kind
of first blast of outer planet stimulation by the inner
planets. And I feel like the eclipses are
important to bring in here because the eclipse axis is said
to drive evolutionary momentum. And there is a feeling of
inevitability when we're working with eclipse energy.
And basically it's the things that are happening had to happen
because of everything that has happened before.
And so there might be, you know, certain circumstances that we're
watching play out in the world and our hearts are breaking and
we're wondering like, how is this possible?
How could this be happening? And if, if we bring in a
framework of what has happened in the past, then we can
understand how it's happening. It's happening because of
everything that has created it. So there is no world leader who
has arisen in a vacuum. If there are world leaders out
there and we look at them and we say, Oh my God, they're so
terrible. How could anybody, you know,
vote for them or allow them to stay in power?
Da, da, da. Just think of them as a pimple.
Think of them as a zit, right? Like pimples emerge in the skin
because of deep toxins in the body that are pushing their way
out to be expelled. And they are not entities in and
of themselves. They're created by something
that is systemic. So what the eclipses kind of
highlight and amplify is this feeling of inevitability that
things are going the way they're going because of everything that
has happened and everything that has brought us here.
But the thing about eclipse energy is that it also heightens
our consciousness around that inevitability and pattern and
sense making. And because of the outer planet
configurations and because we're working with Mercury right now
in its domicile in Gemini and the Sun is there, we have a lot
of consciousness and we're actually living in a time that
is full of information and it's full of people teaching each
other. Gemini loves to give and receive
information and it's resonates with education.
And Aquarius also is an energy that loves to disseminate
information. So we are living in a time of
mass disinformation, but we're also living in a time of mass
coeducation. And there has always been
misinformation. In my opinion, the Bible is the
first published work of misinformation.
It's a retelling of stories that have been retold and retold and
separated from their larger context and then continue to be
retold and misused for thousands of years.
So misinformation is nothing new inside of human consciousness.
Storytelling has always been part of how we form societies
and we're living in a time when there is also a lot of
collective education and re education and many people are
coming into consciousness in new and different ways.
And though things like social media and the Internet can be
really disturbing and distracting for human
consciousness in many ways, I don't think anything is purely
bad or good. Nothing is a binary, and in many
ways, in my opinion, I think that these technologies of
information and education have been profoundly liberating and
awakening for many people and are serving a particular kind of
new coherence and ability to come together across differences
and distances that we couldn't previously transcend.
Yes, they are heightening certain differences and
distances, and they are amplifying certain kinds of
misinformation. So nothing is a binary, but
there are mass movements that are building, and these mass
movements have to do in many ways with awareness of how we
got to where we are, and also with the consciousness that we
can change things. And the idea that we can change
something in some ways is a remembering of human potential
because in our not so recent past, and also in the very
recent past, many humans have thought we couldn't change
anything. We thought this is just the way
that things are, or this is the way that God made it, or this is
the way that the government says it has to be.
Or because you're this gender, you have to be this thing, or
because the law says this thing, then it is true.
And though there have always been those who are rebellious
and disobedient and don't believe certain things, we're
also living in a time when more and more of us are rebellious
and disobedient. And this is part of the energy
of these outer planets. So good trouble is on the way,
in my opinion. And I think that this is
definitely a time when new worlds are being built because
new words are being spoken, so new wording, new worlding.
We're telling different kinds of stories about who we could be
and what we could be. And the nodal potential, when we
tune in with that eclipse energy, is the potential to
awaken to something and then to change course.
And so just because things have happened in a certain way and it
brings us to a certain moment of inevitability, it doesn't mean
that they have to keep happening in the same way.
In fact, the inevitability might be that we are ready for change.
Just a thought. Take it or leave it.
So that's the last week or so of May, and then we head into June
and Mercury will move into Cancer, where Venus is as well,
and it will square Neptune and Saturn.
It will try in the North Node and sextile the South Node.
Venus and Jupiter will come together around this time, and
the nodal axis will square Uranus in Gemini.
So I'm going to talk a little bit more about Venus and Jupiter
coming together and Mercury and Cancer later on.
But I do want to presence them here.
But we'll put a pin in it and come back.
Let's focus on the nodes squaring Uranus.
This is good mischief. This is good trouble
potentially. And this is also a real
activation of change in your personal life.
You might think about the stretch of time between late
2024, September of 2024 and the current moment.
And if you are in the future already, remember these
eclipses. Stretch into February of 2027
and contemplate the Virgo Pisces axis in your chart or the
mutable cross in your chart. If you don't know what any of
that means, just think about how things have been changing.
And you might consider in particular themes that have to
do with letting go of perfection.
Kind of having different kinds of awareness about how you might
separate or divide your consciousness and your
storytelling, and perhaps becoming more compassionate or
accepting or imaginative or intuitive.
This could be a period of time that has softened some things
and in terms of softening things that may have softened the
order. It may have softened the hold in
your material life and started to dissolve some things.
It could feel like as things dissolve, they are becoming more
confusing. This word, as a friend reminded
me recently, means to be with fusion.
So lots of overlap in terms of many things being layered upon
one another and in the complexification may be harsh or
strict delineations of certain kinds of ideas or organizational
strategies inside of your life or your consciousness are kind
of falling away. Then Venus will move into Leo
right around the Gemini New Moon, which is on the 14th of
June. And as Venus moves into Leo, it
sextiles Uranus, trines Neptune and opposes Pluto.
And that's between the 13th and the 17th of June.
So Venus is a love nature and aesthetic quality, and Leo rules
the heart. And Venus in Leo really likes a
party. And we are in the middle of
Gemini season. And it's also pride season,
happy pride out there. I'm just going to say that joy
is one of the most contagious forms of resistance.
And Tony Cade Bombara said we have to make the revolution
irresistible. And I believe her, having
experienced angry activists a lot in my life and really have,
having felt the kind of palpable fear and othering and anxiety
that aggressive activism has. Which isn't to say there's not a
place for it, by the way, not saying that.
I'm just going to say that we need joy, we need songs, we need
dances, we need art. And artists are so important,
which is why fascist and authoritarian regimes often try
to control art very quickly because freedom of expression
threatens homogeneity. So if you want a role in the
revolution, express yourself and express yourself from your
heart. And especially with Venus and
Leo during Gemini season, it's a great time to do things that
help people come together for heartful expression, like dance
parties or karaoke or something like that.
But give it a purpose, you know, do things like fundraising for
mutual aid or sharing information that maybe helps
people make the trouble or shifting perspective and
educating and opening up possibilities.
And remember to invite people in.
We'll build momentum and we'll build resilience the more that
people feel that they belong and are loved and seen and
celebrated inside of collective spaces.
So though Leo can express itself sometimes very dramatically and
with a lot of fire, and especially in the opposition to
Pluto, Venus opposite Pluto, I think there is a lot of energy
to stand up against what feels wrong and to push back against
what feels like dominance and oppression.
I would encourage all of us to see in each other what's good.
Try to uplift the best potentials in yourself and in
others. And if you're being shown what's
not the best potential, don't mirror that in yourself.
Do something else. Make the revolution
irresistible. All right, so then we'll move
into Cancer season. And Cancer season begins on June
21st. And as the Sun moves into
Cancer, it aspects the Nodes right away.
So it trines the North Node and sextiles the South Node, and
then it moves into a square with Neptune.
And later on in Cancer season, it will move into a square with
Saturn. But it's in the first few days,
the 21st to the 25th, that it aspects the nodes and squares
Neptune and July 6th that will square Saturn.
Now July as we move towards July really starts to activate the
outer planet configuration. Mars will move into Gemini on
the 28th of June and just like Mercury and the Sun did in
Gemini season, as Mars moves into Gemini it comes into
contacts with the nodes, it makes a conjunction with Uranus,
it sextiles Neptune and it tries Pluto.
And this is all between June 28th and July 6th.
During this time Jupiter will also move from Cancer into Leo,
and then Jupiter will start to move into an opposition with
Pluto that isn't exact until later on in July around the
20th. And as Jupiter opposes Pluto, it
will simultaneously try Neptune and sextile Uranus because the
outer planets are becoming tighter and tighter in their
orbs of perfection in terms of their aspects with each other,
which up until this point have been close, but we haven't yet
had them be exactly an aspect to one another.
So the first week or so of July and the last couple days of June
are really powerful energetically.
I will also say that on the 29th, Mercury is stationing
retrograde in Cancer and there's a full Moon in Capricorn.
And I'm going to come back to talk more about the Mercury
retrograde as I mentioned before.
But I just want to presence that as Mars is squaring the nodes
and Jupiter is entering Leo, Mercury is also stationing
retrograde. And when a planet stations, it
tends to be expressing itself most intensely.
All right, so Mars activates and it heats things up.
It rules our action potential, and it really wants to take
action. And what does it want to take
action for? It wants to take action to fight
flight. Fuck get what it wants.
Warriorship again. Strong theme for Mars as the
planetary ruler of Aries. Passion.
Strong theme, definitely as a planetary ruler of Aries in
Scorpio. But Mars is in Gemini, and so
things can pop off in a lot of different directions.
And this may be a time when things are popping off all over
the place. And so many people have talked
about, you know, the transits of Uranus in Gemini and Pluto and
Aquarius relating with times of war and civil war as well as
revolutions. And this is true.
So the cycles of these planets in the science that they are in
historically do correspond to these types of times and events.
But because of the configuration that we're seeing right now,
it's also likely that whatever the events are won't be
concentrated in just one place, but we'll be in multiple places.
And it's also likely because of who's playing here, like what
planetary actors have roles and what their roles are, that we
might have all kinds of people joining in the situation.
And it's also likely that we probably can't predict what's
going to happen. So these influences are
unpredictable. That's part of their nature.
And there was a meditation that I offered some weeks ago from
Resma Menicum, who I believe is one of the great teachers of our
times and has done a lot to prepare many people for these
times and to help us stay in practice.
And he encouraged us to contemplate and repeat to
ourselves and notice how we feel and notice the kind of images
that come up and the meaning making that we do and the
behaviors that we feel ourselves compelled for and the emotions
and sensations that we're aware of and what we can imagine when
we tell ourselves that these are times that are full of peril and
full of possibility. And none of us know what's going
to happen. And we can't control it and we
can't plan for it. And the best any of us can do is
show up with our best selves. And I believe that to be true.
I said in your season ahead horoscopes multiple times to
multiple signs. The worst thing you can do right
now is nothing. The absolute worst thing you can
do right now is stay at home feeling scared about what's
happening out there in the world.
The best thing you can do right now is get engaged somehow.
And the absolute best thing that you can do is get engaged in
ways that resonate with your heart and with your love and
help you connect with meaningful energies.
Whatever is meaningful for you, you know, make the meetings that
are most meaningful for you. And act for what you care about
and act for what you want to see, survive and thrive.
And act in ways that your future self will feel proud of, right?
Show up for your best potentials.
And Jupiter is moving into Leo at this time.
And wherever Jupiter is, it magnifies and expands our
possibilities and potentials, and it asks us to show up with
our biggest gifts. Leo again, is the sign of the
heart. And Venus is here at this time
as well. And so we have big heart
enlargement around this time. Huge love.
Leo is also playful and as I said, already loves a party.
Now we are in Cancer season. It's not Gemini season anymore,
but Cancer loves a gathering and loves to feed people and loves
to help people feel that they belong and that they have what
they need. So this is a very powerful time
to extend love, to extend solidarity, and to feel into
yourself the ways that you can practice your own belonging.
Include yourself. You know, don't don't speak to
yourself in ways that belittle yourself or expect perfection.
There's no such thing. Show up with your best self.
You know, you're going to make mistakes.
You don't know how to do everything and you certainly
don't do anything perfectly, probably because you're a human
being and you're not meant to. But that's why we all need each
other, so we can fill in each other's gaps and we can help one
another, play to our strengths and also support each other in
the places where we are a little more weak or fragile.
And in all of those places, we want to uplift and celebrate our
potential, as well as helping each other be accountable to
what we don't see the impact that we might be unaware of and
where we can honestly improve. So Jupiter is an energy that
really wants us to rise to our best occasion.
And that means to be in our own integrity and to practice
ethical behavior. And to be ethical is to be
honest, in my opinion, and to really be able to feel into our
love and to feel into the truth of how we know we're acting
right. You know, you know when you're
acting from your heart. You know when you can feel proud
of yourself and it is easier and easier and easier to know that
the more you love yourself. So as we move into the month of
July, it is a very, very powerful time astrologically and
a lot is happening. A lot is happening.
Mars and Jupiter especially are activating this outer planet
configuration and things will probably be popping off all over
the place. And things could include
environmental things and climate things.
This is a lot of energy in the air and fire elements.
Mercury is also stationing retrograde in a water sign.
It's a full moon in Capricorn, a sign of very deep Earth and
structures. But things could also be popping
off in the human realms in terms of events and happenings and
movements and revolutions and revelations and all kinds of
things. So the best thing that you can
do is to get engaged with what you care about the most.
The worst thing that you can do is keep yourself small and stuck
and not moving. So don't do that.
Neptune stations retrograde on July 7th.
This is just around the time the Sun squares Saturn, and AS the
outer planets go retrograde, which they do for several months
a year, their energies intensify.
So Neptune in Aries is wanting us to dream a new dream of what
it means to exist. And the dream of human existence
has always been a dream, right? There is this feeling of
unreality inside the reality and the very fragile, ephemeral
nature of human existence that none of us can really explain.
And so unreality may start to feel a little stronger around
this time. There may be an uncanniness to
things. But I will say that I think for
many people this is also very deeply a time of spiritual
awakening and spiritual warriorship and an initiation
into a new consciousness and a new dream.
Venus moves into Virgo right around that time as well.
July 9th and then Venus will square the nodes and Venus will
square Uranus. Excuse me?
Venus will be conjunct with the South node and oppose the North
Node N node and then square Uranus.
This is coming as Mercury forms its retrograde conjunction with
the Sun. It's Kazimi on July 12th, and
it's right before a Cancer New Moon.
Virgo and Cancer are complementary energies to each
other. I will talk more about the
Mercury retrograde soon, but I will also say that this is a
powerful period of change and coinciding with this kind of
deepening spiritual awakening influence of Neptune.
Venus in Virgo is a influence that really asks us to feel into
our devotion. It's big devotional energy.
And so if you feel yourself aligned with a 'cause that is
bigger than you and really wanting to devote yourself to
that 'cause, this would be a very powerful time to meditate
on it. This has been a practice that
I've been really trying to focus on for some time now, is
imagining what I'm here for that's far beyond me, imagining
what I can send love to 500 years from now.
And it's deeply motivating and deeply inspiring to think about
the ways that I will be completely forgotten, but may
also subtly influence energies, hopefully in very good ways.
So allow yourself to be creative and imaginative, but again, take
action for that which you most adore and want to see thrive and
flourish and devote yourself to it.
As we get into the middle of July, the outer planets begin to
perfect their aspects with each other.
So between the 15th of July and the 24th of July, we have Uranus
perfecting its sextile with Neptune and trine with Pluto.
That's the 15th to the 17th, and then Pluto and Neptune perfect
their sextile around July 24th. Now these aspects will go in and
out of perfection over the next several years, so this isn't the
only time these are happening. The three of these planets will
be in this aspect pattern by sign until 2033 when Uranus
leaves Gemini. By orb, I believe it's until
2030 by like a 10° orb of influence.
So we have some years of really working with these powerful
agents of change. The sextile between Neptune and
Pluto has been an ongoing aspect pattern since the 1940s, and it
will continue through the 20 forties.
So we'll get the end of that aspect pattern.
They'll start to separate from each other in 2042.
Make of that what you will. But this is a long time, right?
This is a a century in the making of the divine being of
dreams and imagination and delusion working in a very
catalyzing, very lending influence with the divine being
of death, dying, transformation and regeneration.
The 1940s were the beginning of the nuclear age, just as one
possible location for that time. And certainly weapons of mass
destruction have been a main theme of this particular cycle.
But that's not the only cycle that's been at work.
So make the meanings that are meaningful for you.
The end of July though is a really intense time in terms of
outer planet contacts. Jupiter will also be making its
contact with the outer planets between July 20th and 22nd,
trying with Neptune in Aries, opposing Pluto in Aquarius and
sextile Uranus in Gemini. Right before we move into Leo
season and the Sun moves into Leo and then immediately starts
to oppose Pluto and Aquarius and trying Neptune and sextile
Uranus and then forms a conjunction with Jupiter which
perfects on July 29th, which is also a Full Moon in Aquarius.
And therefore the Moon is conjunct with Pluto and trying
with Uranus and sextile with Neptune.
So July is pretty intense in terms of outer planet energies
being amplified, activated by Mars and enlarged by Jupiter,
and then really brought into a lot of consciousness and focus
by the Sun and the Moon as we approach the Full Moon on July
29th. This is also when the nodes, the
eclipse points will move into Aquarius and Leo.
So the nodal axis travels backwards and eclipses get a
little bit earlier every year and they are moving out of Virgo
and Pisces and into Leo and Aquarius, S node and Leo N node
and Aquarius. And we'll have eclipses in Leo
and Aquarius seasons through the early months of 2028.
We had our first solar eclipse in Aquarius February 17th of
2026. You might think about that time
and where Aquarius is in your chart or what you see Aquarius
reflecting in in a collective sense.
Again, the people, information consciousness and the North Node
inevitability things happening. And then this is also when
Saturn is stationing retrograde. So between the 26th and the
29th, pretty powerful. I mean before that.
So from the 15th of July through the 29th, all the outer planets
perfecting their aspects, Jupiter coming into the mix,
Saturn stationing retrograde, the nodes moving into Aquarius
and Leo, the Sun aspect in the outer planets, and then a sun,
Jupiter, Kazemi or conjunction on the full moon.
It won't be boring. At least there's that.
I think that's a curse. I, I believe that's a curse,
right? I, I feel like I heard that
somewhere. It's like, may you live in
interesting times. This is like a hex or something.
And here we are what some people might call the end of the Kali
Yuga or the age of mediocrity and suffering really going out
with a bang. But hopefully the age is
changing. And again, in my opinion, it
takes the worst to bring out the best.
And this is a time of heightened polarities, really heightened
polarities. And we will probably be seeing
that The influences that we're working with are definitely
influences that tell stories of intensifying authoritarianism
and fascism and dominance. But they are also stories that
tell of wild, wily humor, mischievous tactics and
strategies, collective rise of power, labor strikes, walk outs,
global solidarity and evolution and revolution.
So again, the best thing that any of us can do is rise to the
occasion of our best and really give what we have.
And Jupiter in Leo as it comes into the heart of the Sun for
this full Moon in Aquarius, really, in my opinion, wants to
remind us that the best that any of us have to give is the thing
that feels the most joyful, authentically joyful.
And So what makes your heart swell and feel really happy?
What gives you the feeling of being the most free?
What allows you to feel the deepest, most expansive sense of
belonging? When do you feel the most
celebratory and in love with the world?
Think about the activities and the times and the ways of being
that have allowed you to feel like that.
And then try to do those things and try to increase the
possibility that others could do them with you.
When we move into the month of August, Mercury will move into
Leo and Venus will move into Libra.
And then they'll start to aspect all the outer planets.
So they'll do all the things right?
I don't need to keep repeating them.
And Mercury will be sextile with Venus on the 13th of August, and
they'll be aspecting the outer planets between August 9th and
21st together. Ping, ping, ping, ping, ping,
ping one after the other. And this is also the time when
Mars will move into Cancer after coming into contact with the
nodes in the very late degrees now of Leon Aquarius, Mars will
try in the North node and sextile the South node as it
leaves Gemini and then it will move into Cancer and move
towards a square with Neptune which perfects on the 17th.
And then in between all that, we also have an eclipse.
So we'll have a solar eclipse in Leo.
So I mentioned that we had the first solar eclipse in the
Aquarius Leo axis back in February on February 17th.
Now we have a solar eclipse in Leo on August 12th.
Check out the Leo Aquarius axis in your chart and think about
the houses or any placements that you have there.
Eclipses will happen here until January of 2028.
So again, eclipses, the force of inevitability.
Where the North Node is in Aquarius is a place that we're
moving towards. Where the South Node is, is
where everything has already happened.
And we are being encouraged to learn and also to let go.
And so in the Leo parts of your chart, you might think about how
you can let go. And with Leo, what do we want to
let go of ego? We want to let go of arrogance,
we want to let go of showboating and false performativity.
And with the North Node and Aquarius, what we want to move
towards is solidarity and collectivism and really being
here as the water bearers. That's Aquarius.
Aquarius bears the water right, and the place in our bodies that
Aquarius rules includes the connective tissues, which move
water throughout our bodies and allow us to be mobile and facile
and also connected. And to be water bearers means
that we carry the kinds of intelligence that allow us to be
connected and to really feel our belonging together.
So on a collective level, let's see if we can realize this as a
mass human consciousness. What would it look like for
humanity, like the human consciousness, to let go of its
ego, to let go of its supremacy, to let go of its dominion over
itself and the life that it is part of, and to really move
towards solidarity with the life that it is part of?
We don't breathe or eat or drink without all the other life on
Earth, and human supremacy really has got to go.
It's not a good look for us. It doesn't help us out when it
comes to what would make us probably the happiest and bring
forward our best. Then we enter Virgo season, and
as the Sun and then Mercury pass from Leo into Virgo, they will
contact the nodes because again, the nodes move backwards.
So they moved from very early Virgo Pisces into very late Leo
Aquarius. And the Sun will be conjunct
with the South Node and opposing the North Node the same day that
Virgo season begins. That's August 22nd.
And then Mercury will follow three days later on the 25th.
And then Mercury will meet up with the Sun for a solar
conjunction on the day of the full Moon in Virgo.
And Mercury's inferior conjunction was pretty close to
the new Moon in Cancer. The inferior conjunction happens
when Mercury is retrograde and the superior conjunction happens
when Mercury is direct. And so there's some kind of
process here underway of bringing something forward into
consciousness from a feeling tone Cancer from the inner body
into a place where we can be practically applying and
changing things in the material realm, which is Virgo.
All again talk about the Mercury retrograde in just a little bit
now, but this is the day of the lunar eclipse in full moon in
Pisces on August 27th. And this is the second to last
eclipse we're going to have in this axis.
So we'll get another one or the last one in February of 2027.
So August 27th, full moon, lunar eclipse.
And the full moon is amplified by the eclipse.
Eclipses make lunation stronger. They increase the power of the
tides. And this is a full moon that's
also square with Uranus in Gemini.
So really big change energy. Pisces, again, is a mutable
sign. It's a movable energy and it's a
water energy. So this is mutable, movable
feelings. And Pisces expresses a
collective feeling. So the feelings that pass
between us here as cells in the body of Earth.
And again, Uranus is in Gemini. Insight awakening.
Do something different. Let's change it up.
What has been asking to change in your life since September of
2024? And what do you notice in the
world has been changing again, moving towards something that
feels kind of more dispersed, more dissolve, more imaginative,
more intuitive, potentially more spiritual.
Boundaries are softening with Pisces.
And the full moon might amplify emotionality, but Mercury is
also conjunct with the sun that day, and Mercury in the heart of
the sun amplifies practicality. So there could be some pretty
big breakthroughs here around intuition and intelligence
guiding action. Worst thing any of us can do is
nothing, staying small and staying afraid.
The best thing any of us can do is TuneIn with our best selves
and Pisces as an energy and Virgo as an energy anchor us
into the devotional access. So the best thing that any of us
can do is bring our best selves forward.
What are you devoted to? What is the larger love that you
are in service to anchor your energies and intentions that
way. Don't worry about being perfect
or getting it right or knowing what you're doing even.
Just do your best. All right, so then when we move
into the month of September, Venus will move into Libra as of
August 31st, and Mercury moves into Libra about a week and a
half later on September 10th. Mars also is in Cancer at this
point and is moving towards the square with Saturn.
And then on the day of the new moon, the Virgo New Moon, Venus
will move into Scorpio. I think I said the wrong thing a
minute ago. I did.
I said the wrong thing. Venus has already moved into
Libra. Pardon me, I told you that
already on August 6th Mercury and Venus were moving together
in Leo and Libra. What happens on August 31st is
that Venus starts its pre retrograde shadow.
Venus will have a retrograde this year, so I'm going to get
to that in a minute. When I talk about Mercury's
retrograde, I apologize for any confusion there, but Venus
enters Scorpio on September 10th, and Scorpio is the sign it
will station retrograde in. So Venus moves into Scorpio,
Mercury moves into Libra, and Uranus also stations retrograde
the day of the new Moon. We've got a lot of things going
on over the course of the next several months, coinciding with
new nations. It's pretty interesting.
New moons and full moons are definitely times of kind of like
peak consciousness in certain ways.
So we'll see what this New Moon is seeding and also helping us
closeout in terms of cycles closing and beginning at the new
moon again, especially for the outer planets, when they go
retrograde, their influences intensify.
So Uranus is stationing retrograde, It is in a strong
sextile with Neptune and trine with Pluto.
Neptune and Pluto again perfect a sextile with each other around
the 15th of September. And so as you're in a stations
retrograde, there will probably be all kinds of things popping
off. But the retrograde can also be a
time when what has been happening in more kind of like
fast moving outward external ways then begins to deepen and
integrate or intensify internally.
So we'll see what that's all about.
And that brings me to basically the end of Virgo season, which
is pretty much where I'm going to stop for now.
But things will continue and they'll continue in a big way
with the retrogrades of Mercury and Venus.
So I'll talk about that next. Got to keep sipping water.
And that's one of the lessons of both of them, especially Mercury
this year. So even though we have all this
energy in fire and air, all three of Mercury's retrogrades
in 2026 are in the water element.
And I think that this is one of the most interesting kinds of
things about the astrological pattern this year is that the
retrogrades are asking us again and again to come back to water.
So fire and air energies move up and out.
They talk about the domain of thought and communication and
ideas and technology, inspiration, activation,
etcetera. There's a lot of accelerated
momentum in all this fire and air, but water moves us down and
in, and water is a technology of communion and coherence.
It bonds things together. That is its power.
And mercury is consciousness, right?
What are we bringing attention to again?
It is a storyteller and it moves betwixt and between the world's,
between what's unconscious and what is conscious, and it helps
us bring new language, new words and therefore new worlds into
our awareness. And so this constant dipping
back in and retrograding in water, for me feels like
remembering Mercury retrograde periods or any planetary
retrograde periods are supported by practicing RE prefixing.
Retrogrades are nothing to be fearful of.
I think there's something to actually be celebrated and
worked consciously with. Every time is a good time if you
know what the time is good for. And not every time is a good
time for moving forward, as if you know what's going on.
And retrograde periods, especially Mercury retrograde
periods, are great times for reflecting, for remembering, for
remaining, for returning, for rethinking, for retreating, for
resting. These are periods of time when
we might feel more sense of unknown.
And so again, the consciousness function or the cognitive
function, the ability to put information together is going
backwards. And Mercury is known as being a
trickster. And one of the one of my
favorite stories about Mercury or Hermes is how he plays a
trick on his brother who has a bunch of cattle and he turns all
the cows feet backwards. So when they walk forward, it
looks like if you were following their footsteps, that they were
walking in the other direction. And then his brother can't find
his cattle because he's, you know, following the wrong
pathway. And this might be a symbol for
us to be thinking about with the Mercury retrograde.
So often times, you know, we've read a symbol in the wrong way
and retrograde is there to play a little bit of a trick on us.
And it's like, ha ha, you followed that path thinking that
it was the path that was going to get you where you're going.
But it's not actually. And sometimes it's really good
to be confused, right? Sometimes we it's actually
necessary for us to lose our way because then it makes us pay
attention and paying attention in different ways, opening up
our sense faculties, asking questions, investigating things
again, reflecting on something or remembering or repairing.
These are things that human beings have to do.
We can't just constantly be moving forward urgently all the
time thinking that we know where we're going.
Sometimes we have to look backwards, and this is a
powerful indicator, I think in 2026, of looking backwards.
So I'm thinking of the Sankofa bird here.
And you know, this idea that we move into the future by
remembering the past and we remember what we always already
know in order to build what is new and what is next.
And what we always already know is that we are connected.
The first language that any of us speak is not language, it's
connection. We don't learn words first.
We learn vibration, we learn resonance, we learn a felt
sense. And this is something that we
have got to remember if we're going to survive on planet Earth
in any way that's worth living through, surviving through,
we've got to remember that we're connected.
And I think this is what the Mercury retrogrades are doing in
our lives. And it may be helping us, you
know, remember that we're connected through periods of
heartbreak and something falling apart and mistakes and
miscommunications because grief and love are a pair.
And sometimes things have to fall apart in order to be
repaired and regenerated and rehydrated and revitalized.
And these are some of my favorite words for Mercury's
retrograde in Cancer rehydration.
Take your sips of water. So to go back through all this
map, I'm going to say that Mercury comes into Cancer in the
beginning of June and it begins its pre retrograde shadow as of
June 12th. It will station retrograde on
June 29th. It will be retrograde until July
23rd, and then it will stay in its post retrograde shadow until
August 7th. Excuse me, August 6th.
So the pre and post retrograde shadows are the periods of time
that Mercury is traveling direct over the terrain that it
retrogrades on, and it will be retrograde from 26° of Cancer
back to 16° of Cancer. So it first passes 16° on August
12th and it moves past 26° on August 6th.
I think I said the month wrong. It first passes 16° on July
12th. June 12th.
Excuse me first passes 16° on June 12th and it leaves its
shadow. Passes over 26th Cancer on
August 6th. OK so Mercury enters Cancer as
of June 1st and on June 9th Mercury will square Saturn on
its way to entering its shadow. And June 9th is also the day
that Venus and Jupiter are conjunct in Cancer.
So this is before Venus and Jupiter come into Leo.
This is just a couple weeks from now from when I'm recording for
you. June 9th is a powerful day of
alignment. Venus and Jupiter are considered
to be the benefits of the planetary pantheon.
Wherever they go, they bring gifts and opportunity and wealth
and good fortune and good feelings.
And Blair Bogan, who's an astrologer that is going to join
me for a conversation on June 13th.
Me and Alice Barkleycat and Alicia Mauji check the show
notes. Stick around.
I'm going to tell you more about events.
But Blair said in their 2026 year ahead that I listened to,
you know, we can't let the world ruin good astrology for us.
And they were talking about, I think in 2025, the Venus,
Jupiter conjunction aligning with, I think it was, I think it
was like a ice occupation in Los Angeles.
And that's definitely a possibility with Venus and
Jupiter in Cancer because there's no such thing as a
binary anywhere, including an astrology.
So just because we have the benefits coming together doesn't
mean it's going to be good. Unfortunately, Venus rules
wealth. Jupiter can be associated with
bureaucrats and all kinds of ideas about what's right and
what's wrong. And Cancer is a sign that can be
very enclosed and it's ideas about who belongs and who does
not. And there can be weaponization
of these energies as well as great potential.
But I'm going to say that the worst thing any of us can do is
not do anything because we're afraid of what's going to
happen. And the best thing that any of
us can do is what the best thing is that any of us can do, which
is completely up to each of us. The day that Mercury begins its
pre retrograde shadow is the day that the nodes square Uranus.
So we're in a time of definitely a lot of change, and there's a
lot of turbulence around this time.
And then as Mercury is in its retrograde, Jupiter moves into
Leo, we'll have Mars squaring the nodes, Mars will move into
Gemini. It will do its whole dance with
the outer planets. So there is a lot of activation.
Venus is in Leo at this time as well.
So there's a lot of things that are moving around.
There's a lot of noise, there's a lot of mayhem.
There might be a lot of new connections and exciting types
of things. There may be a lot of parties to
go to. We are still in pride season for
part of this period of time. We are headed into the middle of
summer, the thick of summer for those of us in the Northern
hemisphere. Things are getting real hot.
There's a lot that's moving and there's a lot that's growing
when it comes to a kind of larger collective momentum as
Jupiter moves into Leo again, that's the day that Mercury
stations retrograde on the 29th of June.
But then Mercury is retrograding in a place that governs the
inner body in the felt sense. And I'm just going to say that I
think that this influence is a great influence for us to
remember our belonging and that word itself.
Remembering is bringing the members back together.
And because this energy does come at a time of, you know,
increased heartfulness and also lots of new connections being
made, I really want to encourage all of us to let the RE prefix
be a time of revitalizing our connections, rehydrating
ourselves. And how we do that with the
water element is to allow ourselves to really feel our
feelings and to be present with them.
And especially if we're gathering together to create
context where people can feel feelings together and express
feelings together in ways that can help feelings move and
change. And art is one of the best ways
to do that. Art and dance and music are such
powerful technologies for feelings to be felt
authentically and strongly, but also to be felt in ways that
help us to move, move ourselves and move each other, and move
the feelings past the kind of stagnancy or stuckness of the
narratives that they sometimes get confined by.
Mercury is conjunct with the Sun on July 12th, and then on July
14th there's a New Moon that is basically conjunct with Mercury.
This is the inferior conjunction when Mercury is retrograde.
And this is well, Uranus is perfecting its sextile with
Neptune and shrine with Pluto. So this is a very powerful time
of realization and recognition, of deep feeling and remembrance
is a strong possibility, especially if we are trying to
remember larger collective types of possibilities for ourselves.
This is a great time to tell stories about what we already
know. So what have we already known
about how to survive times of apocalypse?
Because many worlds have ended, and many people have survived
and transformed and traveled into new worlds and been aliens
in new worlds, and then found their footing and remembered
again and again and again and again.
And so how do stories pass knowledge along through
generations? How do we remember the stuff and
the substance that leads to our awakening?
What might those technologies be for you in your frameworks, in
your methodologies? For me, it's astrology, it's
dance, it's song, it's art, it's storytelling.
These are the things that I feel in my own body and bloodline and
resonance and passion always bring me back.
They bring me back to something that's bigger than me.
So use this time to remember that Mercury retrograde is a
very powerful time. And then Mercury stations
direct, basically the first day of Leo season on July 23rd.
And as Mercury stations direct and starts to move out of its
shadow phase, August 6th, this is when Jupiter and the Sun are
coming together, which is a very powerful signature of truth.
Truth, of course, is subjective. There are many, many, many, many
truths, not just one. And then we might live at a time
when some people are saying there's just one truth and
they're the ones that have the, you know, be all, end all, last
word on it. That's a lie.
And the truth is, is that none of us breathe without the life
that's here on Earth. And we don't survive without
each other. So this remembering that's
possible as Jupiter and the Sun come together, as Pluto and
Neptune perfect their sextile and all the outer planets are
being contacted and the nodal axis is shifting into Aquarius
and Leo, could be a time of remembering.
While there is mounting and accelerating energies of
supremacy and domination, that can certainly be something that
these astrological energies can convey.
My opinion is that as those energies intensify, so does the
resistance. And the resistance here is in
the multitudes, it's in the biodiversity, it's in the joy,
it's in the joyful multiplicities.
It's a great time to disobey. If there's a one order, one, one
rule that a human came up with, it's a good time to disobey.
This is a great time to follow the laws and the rules of nature
and to disobey the laws and the rules of human beings,
especially human beings that refuse to follow the laws of
nature. So if human beings are deeply
invested in killing nature and not honoring life, any rules and
laws that they make are lies and should be disobeyed in my
opinion. So Mercury will leave its
retrograde shadow as of August 6th.
And then I've talked to you about what Mercury is doing the
rest of the time. So now I want to jump forward a
little bit and remember that on August 31st, Venus begins its
pre retrograde shadow. Its retro shade starts at 22° of
Libra. Venus will be stationing
retrograde on October 3rd at 8° of Scorpio in this forecast.
I'm not getting into the Astrology Pass Virgo season, but
I will say that Venus's retrograde moves from 8 Scorpio
back to 22 Libra between October 3rd and November 14th.
When Venus stations retrograde, it will be square to Mars and
Mars will be in Leo at that point.
And then when Venus stations direct, it will be sextile with
Mars and Jupiter in the South Node in Leo.
So kind of an interesting signature there in terms of
Venus and Mars working together. Venus is at home in Libra, but
it's in Mars's sign in Scorpio. So it will station retrograde in
Mars's sign and then it will go back to its own sign.
Now, this is beyond the scope of this reading, so I'm not going
to talk so much about this retrograde.
Now, I do want to include that Mercury will be retrograde in
Scorpio during that time as well.
Mercury's retrograde is fully in Scorpio between October 24th and
November 13th, from 20° back to five degrees of Scorpio.
So the water element again is deepening.
It's asking us to remember. And Mercury is a storyteller and
Venus works very deeply in the realms of our bodies, our
senses, sensing capacities, our values and our relationships.
And So what the last quarter of this year is bringing is an
opportunity to deepen. Scorpio is definitely a sign of
depth and also to rebalance and potentially do some work of
sacrifice, which is to make sacred by letting go of that
which does not serve life, love and liberation.
So hopefully I'll be able to come back in a couple of months
and explore that time with you. But I'll pause for now because
I'm almost at 2 hours and reaching the end of what I
wanted to say. I do want to say one other thing
about the next several months, which is that the Centaur planet
Chiron is making its first ingress into Taurus beginning in
June. Centaur planets are interesting
bodies. They have highly elliptical
orbital patterns. They spend a really long time in
some signs and a very short time in others, and they link the
orbits of the outer planets and the inner planets.
Chiron links the orbits of Uranus and Saturn has a 50 year
orbit around the Sun, and it spends the longest amount of
time in the signs that it's currently in Pisces, Aries, and
Taurus. And Chiron has been in Aries
since 2018. But on June 19th it's making its
first entry into Taurus. It will only make it into the
first degree before it stations retrograde on August 3rd and
then it goes back into Aries on September 17th and it will
station direct in Aries January 7th and then it will come back
into Taurus in Aries season next year on April 15th.
I'm sure that I and other astrologers will have a great
time talking more about Chiron in Taurus, but I just want to
presence this a little bit. And I want to say first of all,
that if you are in your late 40s or early 50s, you're probably
about to have your Chiron returned.
So you can check your Natal chart and see if you have Chiron
in either late Aries or Taurus somewhere.
It's a very powerful time in life, and I'd highly recommend
that you learn about it if that's your case.
Chiron is often called the wounded healer and it takes us
on healing journeys which are sometimes facilitated or
precipitated by crises of healing in Aries.
Since 2018, perhaps many of us have been on a healing journey
or been aware of the healing crises in the realms of
selfhood. Aries again is the self, the
differentiated self. Aries also has a strong
association or relationship with masculinity.
This has been the time that the, you know, male loneliness
epidemic has been named, but also the time that there's been
a wild increase in violence perpetuated by men.
And a lot of revelation or awareness of violence is that
have always been there and maybe are potentially even becoming
worse. But sometimes it takes the worst
to bring out the best. And I'll just speak to my own
experience and I'm not a man. But in this time since 2018, in
terms of the self and the body and the identity, which is an
Aries domain, one thing that I've become aware of as a white
bodied person has been some of the worst aspects of whiteness
and white supremacy and colonization.
And I think that learning for myself and becoming increasingly
aware is bringing out much better parts of me.
So I wish these things never existed and that I didn't have
to grapple with an ancestral resonance that has created so
much harm. A lot of people have been
assimilated into whiteness, and I come from people who have been
persecuted and who have fled and who have also maintained and
cultivated beauty and healing in many ways.
But in terms of assimilation, the monolith of whiteness has
really done some damage and becoming increasingly conscious
because of things also being blatantly bad has helped me move
towards my best and better ways. It's an ongoing process and
project for sure. It's a lifetime devotion.
But again, none of us are perfect.
And trying to, you know, fix or figure out any of these ancient
twisted karmas and massive systemic institutional
situations is not, you know, it's not possible just in one
body and it's definitely not possible inside of one lifetime.
And certainly not possible in the span of like a couple
minutes or a couple decades or anything like that.
So, yeah, all that to say, you know, whatever identity we might
be in, where we see some of the worst being manifested, whether
that's for men or for white people or for people who have
generational wealth or for people who live inside of
identities that have dominated and oppressed other identities.
Because it's been a trend inside of human consciousness to
dominate and oppress for a very long time and across all kinds
of different identities. Certainly not, you know, only
the domain of any particular group.
There's lots of domination, lots of oppression, lots of violence,
and we all have those seeds of potentials within us.
So when we see the worst coming out, let's not let that be a
reason for us to mirror it or tell ourselves that's the only
story that's possible for those types of people or see in
ourselves. You know that the other ring,
you know, blinds us to our own potentials or something like
that. Anyway, Chiron is coming in a
Taurus, and Taurus is a sign that is often associated also
with the feminine. So we'll see what this healing
journey is about. Taurus is a sign that's very
much associated with land and with Earth.
And this is a possibility, I think Chiron and Taurus to
really awaken to the healing journeys that we can take as
Earth beings and Earth bodies. Chiron presents us with
intergenerational and ancestral healing opportunities.
The patterns of pain and illness and dis ease are never contained
inside of one lifetime. When we're working with Chiron,
we're always working with inherited trauma and inherited
pain. And the healing journey that we
go on is meant to help us do our part in healing.
And then may we be devoted, you know, to creating worlds and
circumstances that produce situations for future ancestors
where the healing work that they can do can transcend and surpass
what we were able to do in our lifetimes.
So I think I'll leave it there for now.
I will say that embodied astrology is a project that is
one way that I've been really devoted to trying to realize my
best. It's 12 years old now, so
embodied astrology is having a Jupiter return this year.
It's a Natal Jupiter in Cancer. And as EA as a project has
grown, it has become a collective space.
And this is part of my intention is to create access to astrology
that is embodied and experiential and transmissible
through the felt sense and vibratory resonance, and also
really fun to engage with. I do think that astrology is a
deeply transformative technology.
And as something that's really fun to do, I think that it's
attractive. And in the ways that we can have
fun together with astrology, there are such massive
potentials in our communication and relationships.
It's one of the best modalities I've ever experienced to help
relationships heal and deepen and strengthen because we're all
paradoxical and idiosyncratic and imperfect and traumatized.
But a lot of that, most of that shows up in our charts.
And to be able to see it in our charts helps us to not take it
personally and helps us to not objectify ourselves or others,
but to get very curious about what are these influences and
how can we care for ourselves and how can we communicate
across our, you know, elemental and modality and aspect to
differences and embodied astrology as a collective now
supports multiple practitioners and also group practice spaces.
And inside of these spaces, we are practicing tuning in with
our best selves, which is often also tuning in with our
shortcomings, in tuning in with our limitations and capacities
and our senses of humor. And really, you know, building
and cultivating our gifts and taking care of the places where
maybe we can't see ourselves so clearly or we act out of
alignment or make impacts that we don't intend.
So if you're interested in doing work that might support and
assist you and loving yourself more and connecting more deeply
with others and exploring your gifts and your generosities and
your opportunities, please come and join us sometime at Embodied
Astrology. And we have a whole lot of
things going on that are strategically timed with
astrology to support what is happening now.
So the first thing that I'm going to mention is that we have
two monthly series, one of which has already started and one
which we'll be starting and both of them are working with fire.
So the one that has already started is a series that is
devoted to initiation of spiritual warriorship.
And this series is working intentionally with Saturn and
Neptune in Aries with this new world building type of energy.
The space is held by Aziz Bisanz.
Aziz is an embodied astrology practitioner, a somatic
therapist, an artist and an activist, and he is holding
space with multiple other facilitators from all around the
world. I'm excited to join Aziz, by the
way, on June 23rd for a special session.
We'll look at Eris, an outer planet that I didn't name yet in
this transmission, but Eris is also in Aries and I think a
powerful player in the whole gestalt of everything that's
happening. And I am really excited to
explore Eris together. But along with me on June 23rd,
Aziz has multiple guests throughout the year and every
single month on the 4th Tuesday, Aziz and guests gather to
explore land based spiritual practices and practices of
communal resilience and remembering how we are spiritual
warriors in times of occupation and genocide.
How we come together with love for liberation, face our fears
and really tap in and tune into our heart and our power.
Starting in Leo season, the first week of August and then
continuing the first week of every month, Alicia Emoji is
facilitating a series called The Solar Playground and Alicia will
be exploring Jupiter in Leo. So big heart energy, big gift
energy, big generosity energy. How can we be our best selves?
How can we know our best selves? And sometimes being our best
selves and knowing ourselves, knowing our best selves also
requires us to know where we get in our own way.
So what are the narratives that limit us?
What are the beliefs and philosophies that confine us and
contain us? And how can we expand beyond
them? This will be an opportunity to
engage with art and creative expression and different kinds
of meaning making in a group setting.
It's not a didactic teaching of astrology around what Jupiter
and Leo is, but really a chance for people who are interested in
exploring their own charts and working with their own meaning
making around astrology to play over the course of every season.
We also have seasonally timed events.
These events are often one off events and their conversations
or other kinds of happenings that are meant to boost the
energy and the influence of the season.
On June 13th and Gemini season, as I briefly mentioned before,
I'm going to be joined by Blair Bogan and Alice Sparkly Cat, two
of my favorite astrologers and we are going to be in a
conversation facilitated by Alicia Emoji, who I just
mentioned. Alicia is a Community
Coordinator at Embodied Astrology as well as a talented
facilitator and space holder and an enthusiastic astrology
student and practitioner. And Alison Blair and I and
Alicia as well all have very creative practices with
astrology. We tend to be disobedient within
our forms. We are queer practitioners and
we engage with queering astrology.
So this conversation is going to be exploring how we do that and
how we think about astrology as practice that can transcend its
own boundaries and be incorporated into art and
activism in life, and also the ways that we engage socially in
Cancer season. Right at the beginning of Cancer
season on the solstice itself on June 21st, Aaron Fogle is
joining me. Aaron is an amazing astrologer
and energy worker and musician, and she's going to be joining me
to talk about Chiron and Taurus. So if you're interested in this
resonance of the wounded healer, come and join us.
Erin has a lot to offer in terms of energy healing practices and
inner contemplation and astrology.
Chiron will have just moved into Taurus a couple of days prior
and on the solstice the Sun will be sextile with Chiron from
Cancer and it feels like a powerful time to align in a tune
with that energy. This is still in the works, so
I'm saying this with a prayer that it's going to happen.
We are currently planning a pop up astrology experience that
will be happening the first week of July in the midst of some of
the most activating and chaotic astrology of the year.
As Mars moves into Gemini and contacts all the outer planets
and Neptune is stationing retrograde and Jupiter is there
contacting all the outer planets, it is such a wild and
wacky time to be trying to do something.
Mercury will station retrograde as well, right around there, but
we're going to give it a go. And our intention is to use
astrology to have a creative, chaotic collaboration that
combines multiple locations in person and online, where we
explore together personal and collective astrology.
We research the past we maybe don't predict but look forward
to the future and offer the future strategies like games or
embodiment practices or ideas about how particular cycles
might play out and inform ourselves.
By doing community skill shares and learning about what people
are already doing and have already known how to do that, we
can continue and spread and innovate and play with all
together. And our idea is that we're going
to use this very powerful time of a lot of change and change
making to seed the future with some possibilities about how the
world can be made and remade over the next 30 years of
Saturn's cycle through the Zodiac and back into Aries.
So I think that will be between June, excuse me, between July
6th and July 12th. But definitely stay tuned with
embodied astrology. Probably by the time this
transmission comes out, we will not yet know or the dates won't
be completely confirmed or something like that.
But hopefully by Cancer season, we'll definitely know.
And hopefully within a couple of weeks we will have the dates
confirmed. So make sure that you are signed
up for the EA newsletter. You can follow and subscribe and
listen to the podcast. We do put out a week ahead
podcast on usually on Monday nights and you can follow us on
Instagram as well. We'll make announcements there.
It would be great to play with you around that time and then
we'll have a Virgo season event. Also the the details are TBA
but. There are some plans in the
works and so if you're interested in in exploring the
devotional elements of Virgo and Virgo's association with healing
and herbal medicine, we have a special guest hopefully who will
join us. And then on a week to week
basis, you can find me every Monday from 8:00 to 9:30 AM.
Pacific on Zoom or anytime by recording in my Moon day class
somatic space. Every single week, I play in the
realms of embodying astrology and use the astrology of the
week ahead to devise a somatic score.
And so we TuneIn through the felt sense, we do movement, we
do meditation. I'm recording for you on a moon
day evening. And this morning we danced and
it supported me so much throughout the day.
And I still feel good from dancing together with the folks
who were there with me in the Zoom room.
These are gentle, accessible, all levels practices.
Everybody can dance, even if not everybody can stand on their
feet or, you know, move any particular body parts.
So we work through the realms of energy and imagination and
inspiration, and there's lots of adaptability and modification
cues and we're always thinking creatively about how does
astrology move us and how can we move with it.
So you can drop in any time to somatic space, but if you become
a member, you'll also get access to our other weekly space, which
is the chart reading study groups facilitated by Alicia on
Thursday mornings and from 9:00 to 11:00 Pacific.
And these spaces are such sweet exploratory spaces and such a
cool way to learn about astrology because astrology is
always happening. It's living inside of us.
We all are expert astrologers, even if we don't know the
language. And the way that we do it at
embodied astrology is not formulaic, it's not didactic.
It's not a top down hierarchical kind of model where you have to
understand all the rules about something.
We resonate with it and then we share stories and we really
cultivate Co learning spaces and the chart reading study groups
are places where people teach each other and often it's
through sharing information of what they've learned, but it's
always through sharing their felt sets and experience.
So these spaces function as storytelling spaces on some
level, as peer support spaces. They're spaces that will really
give you access to tuning in with your chart and therefore
with yourself and with your life.
So come play. The last thing that I'll say is
that if you really want to learn about astrology and you want to
learn the insurance and outs of reading a chart, of casting a
chart of reading Natal charts or relationship charts or using
astrology for event timing or things like that.
I am offering a new practitioner cohort starting in Virgo season
the weekend of August 29th. And this is a year long
apprenticeship and we are going to be gathering every other week
with me and on the off weeks in study groups.
This is a deep dive into experiential embodied astrology.
This program has been taught one time before in a 16 month model,
and several of the people who went through that program are
now facilitators with Embodied Astrology, Aziz Bisance being
one of them, who I mentioned is holding the space for initiation
into spiritual warriorship. My intention is that embodied
astrology becomes a rich space of practitioner support and that
we share and spread astrology in ways that can help a lot of
people integrate astrology into their various modalities.
So the way that we do astrology at EA is really meant to support
therapists, artists, healers, educators, activists,
scientists, parents, whatever your special interest may be or
whatever it is that you might do.
Astrology could be a good companion for that, and we would
love to explore it with you. All right, so two hours and some
change. If you've been here the whole
time with me, thanks for sticking around from sunset into
the evening. It's been nice to imagine you
out there on the other end of this recording transmission.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to do this work.
If you appreciate my work, please help me to continue to do
it and to offer it in many ways for free.
The best way to do that is by sharing it with your friends.
So however you encountered this recording, please repost, e-mail
it, link it, etcetera, and make sure that you follow and
subscribe the Embodied Astrology Podcast streams on all podcast
streaming platforms. We're on YouTube, the algorithm
response when you follow and subscribe and when you click the
thumbs up or the like buttons, definitely when you comment,
when you click the hype button on YouTube, It all helps people
find the channel. We do post some things on
Instagram. I'm not a big social media user
these days, but I do keep it as somewhat as a bulletin board.
So if you want to stay updated with Embodied Astrology, you can
follow us at Embodied Astrology on Instagram.
And you can also join our free member space on Circle where
you'll also get updates and you can also become a paid member.
And then you'll get access to somatic space and our chart
reading study groups and sometimes special member events.
We've just had a couple of special member events over the
last few weeks that have involved skill shares and some
strategic planning around this whole chunk of astrology that I
just went through. And you'll get discounts every
month to our store and events. All right, I'm wishing you all
the best from the midpoint of eclipses until the next set of
eclipses. Thank you so much for tuning in.
Bye for now and hello forever.
