This episode is a permission slip to say no — quickly, cleanly, and without over-explaining.

We’re checking the energy as Uranus stations direct in Taurus and Mercury enters Aquarius, bringing clarity around values, boundaries, and where you’ve been overextending out of habit. I talk about why saying ʻaʻole isn’t harsh — it’s honest — and how carrying too much responsibility (hello, 10 of Wands) blocks the stability you’re actually trying to build.

With The Emperor showing up, this episode is about leadership over your own life, time, and energy — not control, not ego, just self-respect.

Short, grounded, and real. Say less. Mean it. Move on.
