For the week of January 20–26, 2025, on The Weekly Transit, the theme is “Compassionate Community,” as planetary alignments urge us to embrace empathy, release guilt, and foster meaningful relationships within ourselves and our communities. This week offers insights into working with cosmic frequencies to cultivate healing and growth.

The episode opens with further reflections on the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, which displaced thousands, including actor Mel Gibson. We highlight Gibson’s recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience, which occurred during the fires, noting the astrological themes reflected in their conversation. 

The astrological focus shifts to major transits this week, starting with the Sun’s conjunction with Pluto in Aquarius, which emphasizes community transformation and the unveiling of hidden truths. This aspect encourages listeners to examine their unique contributions to collective well-being and confront any lingering fears about stepping into their authentic selves. We reflect on public vulnerability, noting that embracing self-love is the antidote to fears of rejection or humiliation.

Venus in Pisces forms supportive aspects with Mars in Cancer and Uranus in Taurus, highlighting emotional healing, rethinking material values, and nurturing relationships.

Mercury in Capricorn sextiling Neptune and the North Node in Pisces fosters introspection, encouraging listeners to take responsibility for their thoughts while embracing compassion and self-forgiveness.

Blending esoteric wisdom with practical astrology, this episode invites reflection:

How can your unique gifts help transform your community?

What emotional habits hold you back from self-love?

This week’s cosmic energies inspire healing, introspection, and a renewed commitment to building compassionate, connected communities.
