Hello everyone! It's been a while since we've discussed the difference between Western and Vedic astrology. I was having this conversation recently and decided to make a segment for you all. 

Please keep in mind that I study the Vedic Sidereal System of astrology. That being said, this segment is partially bias and I share my journey with Western and Vedic astrology and why I chose to invest my time in Vedic study. 

Vedic astrology, or Jyotish, is a sister science to Ayurveda, Yoga, Vastu, and other Vedantic practices. It's important to remember the lineage of this science! Vedic astrology originated in ancient India and follows the astrological placement of the fixed stars.

In this segment we discuss the upcoming full moon in the sidereal sign of Libra. With the Sun exalted in Aries and the moon in Libra - this is such an incredible time to focus on our individual self in relationship to the other. 

The most important relationship we will have in this is life is our relationship with ourselves. Once we hone in on what it takes to cultivate an intimate relationship with our own inner world, we may then begin to manifest deep and intimate relations with the world around us. We discuss the importance of the perception of ourselves, showing up authentically, and how this will give us a firm foundation to build lasting relationship.

You've probably heard a million times about dignity, good dignity, or bad dignity. Determining the strength and auspiciousness of a planet is no easy task! But today, I break down two essential and simple ways of determining how strong or influential a planet will be in a birth chart. 

I hope you find it helpful!

In this segment we discuss spiritual practice and the purpose of the spiritual path. 

We discuss the concept of Ahamkara, or ego, and the role it can play in life. It's important to note that the ego is not an enemy and can be used to for good! But it still takes work and introspection to see beyond our limited perspective and experience. Reality is subjective. Truth is mostly subjective. Self-realization is a deconstruction of what we have thought ourselves and the world to be, so that we may open our eyes to the True Self and connection to the Universal. 

Having a daily spiritual practice reminds us of this connection and may inspire us to continuously work to connect with Source. We are never done growing or evolving.

In this segment we cover how Jupiter will impact each of the 12 zodiac signs and what to expect for this upcoming new moon. 

The new moon will be in the sidereal sign of Pisces. More specifically, the moon will fall in the lunar mansion, or nakshatra, of Revati. This is the first new moon for this transit of Jupiter and a phenomenal time to turn inwards, take personal inventory, and set new intentions. We discuss some practices to review the past year or cycle of Jupiter and how to set clear intentions. 

In the later part of the segment, I discuss how Jupiter will impact each of the 12 signs, what to watch out for, and where blessings may be coming into your life. 

I hope you all enjoy it!

In this segment we explore the karmic nodes of Rahu and Ketu and their current position in the sky. We assess recent events in the media and discuss how they align with historical events throughout time. 

Some of the information is touchy and creepy - but I give fair headsup about midway through! I hope you find this as interesting as I did!

In this segment we discuss the upcoming full moon in the sidereal sign of Virgo, more specifically the nakshatra of Hasta. Hasta is a wonderful nakshatra for fun, laughter, building, and enjoying. However, this nakshatra is also symbolized by a hand, palm, or closed fist. This could represent healing with acupuncture, massage, or herbal remedies. But it can also represent manipulation or control, as our hands are what are responsible for manipulating objects through space.

In this podcast we spend time discussing the desire to control, where it stems from, and its potential outcomes. We discuss the freedom that comes with letting go, and turning attention to what we DO have control over. I hope you find it helpful.

In this segment we discuss the upcoming transit of Jupiter into the sign of Aquarius on a more global level. Jupiter will move into Aquarius on April 5, and go retrograde back into the sign of Capricorn later in the year. The flux of Jupiter will create events that really make us question what it is we represent and what we stand for. This transit will bring emphasis to the collective and to the future we are all creating. However, everyone will have a different vision of what that future is going to look like. 

Will we revolutionize? Will we go back to the old way? 

We discuss possible world events and what to watch out for. I hope you find it helpful.

In this segment I am so excited to introduce the intuitive mentor, Human Design specialist, and energy healer, Pavi. 

Human Design is such a complicated topic and, for me, a new frontier! I am so grateful to have Pavi on the show to break down difficult concepts, explain where Human Design came from, and give more insight into how understanding your design can be supportive in your life!

In this segment I share (again!) one of my favorite methods of manifestation. We also discuss topics to reflect on in regards to negative self-talk, self-doubt, or unhelpful thinking patterns. 

We pick up so much in life that may contribute to an "illusionary" way of viewing ourselves or our capabilities. With this new moon, we're given an opportunity to let these illusions melt away and "reboot" our lives so that we may live with a deeper connection to our True Essence. 

I hope you find it helpful.
