Hi everyone! In this segment we discuss the upcoming new moon in Uttara Ashadha in Capricorn. We explore how becoming truly aligned with our values or morals can sometimes feel isolating. As we refine our convictions - certain relationships, identities, and paths may crumble as a natural consequence of our own commitment to our life. Uttara Ashadha teaches us that loneliness can be a rite of passa...

But I wanted to share the main takeaways of the year to come. Most importantly: I wanted to give you dates that I am personally using on a daily basis to plan my year... so I hope this helps! Transits: Eclipses...

Jupiter and Mercury are both planets of intelligence, wisdom, and discernment — the teacher, the student, and distillers of knowledge.

Hello everyone! This week, we will look at the month of August. Bhagavad Gita 18.47 : It is better to do one’s own dharma, even though imperfectly, than to do another’s dharma, even though perfectly.
