Today, we will look at the Sun's upcoming square to Pluto.

Today we will continue our exploration of Pluto's entrance into the sign of Aquarius by doing some early horoscopes. And I'm doing this because this is an outer planetary transit, it's going to spend a couple of decades in the sign of Aquarius, and we're getting our first taste for it this March, so I think it's a good time to reflect this transit. So let's look at this and see what we can learn a...

This is part two of an exploration into Pluto's entrance into Aquarius. In the first episode, I talked about kenosis or the concept of emptying out. Today, we'll unpack who the water bearer is and how they relate to the sign of Aquarius.

Since we'll be feeling this into November really, I thought we could take another dive into the watery Mars/Neptune combination.

Today we'll preview the entrance of Saturn into the sign of Pisces. Why do this now? Because Saturn is getting ready to station direct in the sign of Aquarius, it will then be on a trajectory to move into the sign of Pisces by early March. So I've got three themes for us to explore on Saturn in Pisces.

I'm excited to be joined today by two of my teachers, friends, and mentors in the bhakti tradition, Loka and Vidarbha, who occasionally join me to help me field your wonderful questions.

Today will look at Mars's upcoming square to Neptune. Mars is in the sign of Gemini, slowing down to turn retrograde by the end of this month. A big part of this upcoming retrograde is Mars's square to Neptune.

Today will take a look at Mercury stationing direct, and as it does so, it'll also make a near-perfect opposition to Neptune. So we'll look at that today and get a feel for what kinds of themes you might expect or notice.

Today we are going to take a look at the astrology of October. With eclipse season starting, it's a powerful month ahead. We also have Mars turning retrograde in the sign of Gemini. So, significant events toward the end of the month, but everything's ramping up toward them throughout October. So let's dive in.

Today will be doing October horoscopes for all 12 signs, focusing on the upcoming solar eclipse in Scorpio, which takes place on October 25. Everything happening earlier in the month is building up to this moment so let's look at which whole sign house the eclipse falls in for your rising sign to give you a sense of what the month is building toward.

I've been getting a lot of requests to talk about what ancient astrologers had to say from the Western standpoint about karma, enlightenment, and transmigration of the soul. Is the philosophy of yoga compatible with what ancient astrologers in the West believed?

At the same time Saturn leaves, Pluto will be entering Aquarius. So let's start inviting reflection into our lives upon this upcoming tr...

Today we are going to talk about Mercury's conjunction with Venus. Mercury has been retrograde back in the sign of Virgo and is conjoining with Venus. It's a fascinating combination of planetary events we've unpacked over the past couple of weeks. So I've got three themes to watch for and three lessons for this transit.
