As a teacher of Astrology, I have come to find over the years many distinctions between how ‘newbie’ Astrologers understand the stars, versus how those that have been at it a while understand them.
​
So today, I thought I would give you the scoop on what gives away the green-ness of your astrological studies…

…and how to impress even seasoned astrologers with your profound brilliance ;)

Here are the 3 main mistakes I see budding Astrologers make over and over again…

Astrology and Money

Hey Old Souls,
​A student asked me a few weeks ago, "Is there anything in my birth chart that can shed light on my relationship with money?  Where does that fit into the overall picture?"

So today I thought it might be fun to go into how to understand money through a Birth Chart.

We as a society tend to think of money as one thing that works only in one way (AND, might I add, many folks aren't that thrilled with the glum picture they see that to be).

But what if I told you money (and your attainment of it) was as personal as any other aspect of your Chart?

Below is a VERY simplified version of what to look for when trying to understand your relationship to money....

The 2 Kinds of Mercury Retrograde Folks (Plus this week's Eclipse)

5/25/2021

0 Comments

 
Hey Old Souls,

It's a busy week, Astrologically speaking, and there are two energies coming up that are going to be very useful to prepare for:

Tomorrow's Lunar Eclipse, and Saturday's Mercury Retrograde.

Wednesday's Lunar Eclipse is is 5 degrees Sagittarius (as well as affecting 5 degrees Gemini).

So if you have Planets/Points there, be aware that they are coming into a completion / recognition moment in their cycle (more info on this in the video below).

On top of that, on Saturday, Mercury once again will enter into a slowed down Retrograde cycle.  

I haven't mentioned too much about this before, but there are 2 distinct types of Mercury Retrograde folks...

How to do a Chart Rectification

This week I decided to go into one of the main questions I get asked by pretty much everyone...

...What do you do if you don't know the time of birth?

The answer is - you do a Chart Rectification.

Chart Rectifications might seem like a mysterious magic trick that only the most experienced of Astrologers have in their toolbox...

Everything you need to know about Jupiter entering Pisces

5/13/2021

Jupiter moves into Pisces today, and we will have our first taste of Jupiter collectively being in this dreamy, compassionate, and easily overwhelmed Sign for the first time in over a decade.

Transiting Jupiter brings 'more' energy to any area it touches...

...So from now till the end of July (as well as all of 2022) be prepared to have your boundaries tested, your escapist tendencies 'turned up to 11' and, if you so choose, your connection to Source merging to a level you might never have experienced!

AND, how this transit affects the collective can be very different from how it affects the individual.

How Projection REALLY Works

Hey Old Souls, 

I had a giant epiphany the other day that totally made the whole 'projection' mechanism make sense - and wanted to share the insight with you.

For those that have been on the healing / shadow work path for a while now, you'll recognize the term projection, but for those new to it...

Projection is a coping mechanism we all subconsciously do.  How it's commonly known to work goes like this:

Hey Old Souls, 


I have a treat for you today :)

For those of you who haven't had the rare and wonderful opportunity to experience the mind-blowingly brilliant wisdom of my husband Aaron yet, I thought I would share with all of you a recent talk he gave.

The talk's topic was a deep dive into the themes of Sagittarius, Jupiter and the 9th House...

...but even if you know nothing about any of those archetypes, I promise it will still bring you a MASSIVE boost of inspiration because the true themes are:

Truth, Trust, Motivation and our Guiding Light.

So if you're feeling a bit lost, overwhelmed or like you're stuck in circumstances that feel out of your control....

Astrology of Twins - How can Identical Charts be Unique?

I get this question a lot from my students...

"How do you read twin Charts?  What does it mean when two charts are identical?"

It's an interesting question, and if still playing by the old rigid rules of Astrology, is completely impossible to answer.

But I (and my students!) definitely don't play by those old crusty rules ;)

So I made a quick video explaining how this brain teaser works, and how two completely identical Charts can be uniquely their own...

Everything you need to know about the Nodes and your Karmic Purpose

Hey Old Souls, 

Today I thought I would go into one of my favorite (and the most commonly asked about)  pieces of Astrology - the Nodes.

The North and South Node show the unique Karmic Journeys our Higher Selves laid out for us in this lifetime.  They are our 'map' and when understood correctly, can be an absolute lifesaver - literally!

So for those curious about what the Nodes are, how they work, and how they play out over the course of a lifetime, I've made a video explaining all the ins and outs.

Hey Old Souls,

2020 was a HUGE year of forcing us into a new state of being (for better or worse), and while we are out of the fire in one regard, there is still conflict / activation coming for the next few years too.

Which can be AMAZING.... if you want it to be.

And one of the best ways to align yourself with this year's specific activation is to figure out what's

We are in some wild times right now....

Powerful times like these force us to step up into our 'Big Self,' and wimpy, new age tools are just not going to cut it for much longer (just saying).

The Eclipses we're in the middle of right now start us off on our next journey of evolution - but we need to be able to heal and make sense of what's already here first!

​Astrology is becoming more and more popular these days, but just because someone has read a few Sun Sign memes doesn’t mean that they're truly ready to call themselves an Astrologer (as I'm sure you know all too well).

As someone who teaches Astrology, I’ve found a few tell-tale signs over the years for which of my students have what it takes. 

Below are my 9 Tells that you’re meant to be an Astrologer.

Saturn's recent return into the Sign of Capricorn can feel heavy and restrictive to some. 

But as with all Astrological energies, there is powerful healing energy associated with this final stage of Saturn's  time in Capricorn too.

To help you tap into that healing potential, I thought I would share with you a powerful guided meditation to meet the divine ruler Saturn up close and personal.

July (especially early July) is trigger-central, so be prepared for your own and other's buttons to be pushed past their comfort zones.  

While uncomfortable for sure, there is a sliver lining to all this contrast - it can just as easily be a powerful time of catalyst, pushing you up towards your next level of evolution.

Astrological Energies for June 2020

​Hey Old Souls, 

June is a fire storm of shifts, and honestly, I'm on the edge of my seat to see which way we go with it all.

Two powerful Eclipses - massively hitting the United State's Chart, call for intense change, which we have the power to steer in a positive or negative direction.

Which will we choose?

Many truths have the potential to 'bubble up to the surface' both personally and collectively through all of this - but most of these truths will require summoning massive amounts of courage to finally face them.

April 2020 Astrological Energies + How Transits REALLY Work

4/5/2020

Hey Old Souls, 

We are in some wild times, with the full extremes of potential on both ends of the spectrum available.  The question is simply, "which path are you choosing to go down?"

In this April 2020 update, I answer the endless question of  "what on earth is going on with the stars to create this madness??"

In this video I explain what to expect for April, which involves a potentially potent New Moon on the 22nd that could create some dramatic 'exposure of what's hidden' for America in particular, 

as well as a tutorial on exactly HOW to understand and make sense of Transits.  (Hint, most pop horoscopes are leading you astray).

The Biggest Astrological Transit for America in 2020 (that no one's talking about!)

3/18/2020

Hey Old Souls, 

I have been asked my many people recently

"what on earth is going on with the stars to create this madness??"

So, I made a video to answer exactly this, that hopefully can offer you some comfort and clarity in these uncertain times.


What's in this video:

1 - Timelines on how long this all will last (and the various 'intense' and 'calmer' stages involved in that timeline).

2 - The deeper spiritual purpose of WHY this is happening, and how you (people who live in the States especially) can align your own actions and healing journey up with this deeper purpose.  Doing this will not only VASTLY lessen your stress, but it will also SPEED UP how long all this takes for the larger collective to 'get the universal memo.'
