  • Ultimate Guide: Venus Retrogrades in Leo from July 22-September 3, 2023

    Venus, the planet of beauty and values, spends approximately 5 months in Leo from June 5th - October 8th, 2023.

    ***Venus turns retrograde in Leo from July 22nd- September 3th, 2023!***
    Leo rules over personal happiness and heart centered goals. Leos can be a formidable lion, or a kitty cat depending on the audience as the inner child rules over all things having to do with the 5th house of fun/games/children/heart-centered activities/drama/uniqueness/unapologetically extravagant/sassy/ and selfies galore!! Behind the glitz and glam are sensitive Leos seeking acceptance- representing inner needs for unconditional love.
    Venus in Leo will show the need to acknowledge our inner child and optimism to pursue authentic personal heartfelt joys. Seeking uniqueness and light will be this summer's 2023 mantra. Finding enthusiasm and innate creativity seeks to rejuvenate inner/outer spirit thus awakening a new found zest for the beauty and security of our values and integrity.
    Of course the low road of the transit of Venus in Leo can bring extravagance and showboating from ego, which in turn may cause resistance and anger from others. BUT, Leos do not mind starting a dramatic scene and calling others out! Drama will be the star of this summer's storyline!
    Navigating Venus' hibernation in Leo gives a chance for the collective to lock down personal values and investments affecting long term goals.
    Leo is royalty, therefore the more attention the better as personal public appearances is what Venus will bring to the table during this hibernation lasting for roughly around 6 weeks. By the time Venus returns to its original degrees of the retrograde cycle, the world will be more certain of its values and integrity after such a long review.
    The next Venus retrograde cycle will occur in Aries 2025, another fire sign as the cosmic realm shores up authenticism in preparation for future collective growth into a higher realm of consciousness.
    Inner personal work is needed in order for the public face to succeed.
    *Find time to write down and meditate on personal values and how to achieve inner goals through listening to intuition and heartfelt integrity.*


    ****Please excuse the retrograde dates on the video as the dates are July 22-September 3, 2023.***

  • NEPTUNE RETROGRADES IN PISCES/CANCER SUN OPPOSES CAPRICORN FULL MOON-WEEKLY REPORT June 27-July 4,2023
    As Neptune begins it's hibernation in Pisces, it's home, the world will become extra foggy with water taking center stage. It's long nap coincides with Saturn's retrograde, also in Pisces, causing some rules to dissolve when dreams become shattered. What was structured may start to crumble as society continues to see what is broken when practical realization enters the spiritual realms and manifests.
    Falling prey to outdated dreams may cause turmoil when clarity returns. Try not to start anything new unless it has already begun.
    The full moon in Capricorn on July 3rd will bring emotional fireworks as it opposes the Cancer Sun- bringing boiling points towards explosiveness as these two cardinal signs compete for control. Maintaining calm at all cost will keep the summer moving smoothly with social activities as long as empathy is employed.
    Happy July 4th in America as Capricorn is again hosting Pluto in it's return to it's birthday in 1776. Many opposing views is why America was founded for those seeking true freedom from being indentured. Many of those founding fathers also owned slaves, oxymoronic upon reflection..
    America belongs to no one and every one- as a guiding light to many.
    *Celebrate yourself and others this week through mindfully engaging in empathy and kindness with thoughts and words expressed to the world, especially to those that you love.*

  • SUN&MERCURY ENTER CANCER/SUMMER SOLSTICE BRINGS LIGHT 333

    Summer Solstice occurs on June 21, 2023 bringing the longest daylight of the year.

    Cancer season also arrives with the Sun moving in for the month to wind down and relax. Nurturing vibes vibrate out as the earth heats up and we slow our pace as the longer sunlight hours allow for lots of outdoor activities with family and friends. Our emotional needs are calling out as the moon rules Cancer season with an oven mitt hand holding a chocolate chip cookie pan-bring on the comfort food as the outer world shows the turmoil we all may be feeling inside.

    Mercury joins the Sun in Cancer on June 26,2 2023 and our thoughts now follow our emotional needs for stability and security. Our minds will quickly retain memories, think about home activities, and communicate feelings easier.

    The moon is in Leo from late Tuesday night into Friday morning- meeting up with Venus then Mars as it moves through into Virgo over the weekend.

    Moon and Venus in Leo brings on romantic, passionate energy that must be heard. Mars and Moon in Leo excites our physical needs to express ourselves to others.

    The overall energy of this week is preparing us for long term values and goals that are necessary to our happiness. The cosmic plan is being realigned with our natural ways of existing on Earth that do not involve wars with others.

    As Saturn retrogrades in Pisces, we are being asked to review our infrastructures of all kinds that we live our lives by. Fear can masks as territorial wars.

    Prepare for a summer full of introspection and possibly spending too much money on luxury goods when Venus retrogrades in Leo until October, 2023.

    *Let intuition be the guide this summer as retrograde season begins. Stop and listen to your breath -meditating in stillness.*

  • NEW MOON IN GEMINI/SATURN RETROGRADES IN PISCES June 12-19, 2023
    The big news of the week is Mercury entering Gemini on Sunday June 11th bringing on rapid communications as social activities pick up. Go with the flow of Mercury Gemini and seek as much mental stimulation as you can while it is moving until August 23rd; when it will go retrograde and nap -slowing down the usual suspects of communication, transportation, and mental curiosity.
    As the weekend approaches, Saturn will be turning retrograde from June 17,-November 4, 2023 in the sign of Pisces. Saturn is visiting Pisces for about three years. This slow down is to help us review our long term goals dealing with our dreams, lying to ourselves, and having spiritual faith that the universe will provide. Take it easy in terms of pushing yourself too hard, but do take a chance on your optimism, confidence, and dreams through having faith in yourself!
    Some tension moves in on Wednesday as the Taurus moon spats with Mars in Leo- leading to blocked emotions blowing up -as the need for self expression reaches volcanic levels.
    On Thursday Mercury newly arrived in Gemini locks horns with sleepy Saturn in Pisces, bringing on our self doubts- causing mental stress and stubbornness.
    Friday finds moon in Gemini meeting up with Mercury and the Sun for some FUN times talking and sharing ideas with others.
    BIG news on Sunday as the new moon in Gemini brings back our memories of the time when Mars was retrograde here -from October 30, 2022-January 12, 2023!! Think back to that time period and see how things have evolved in your life since then. The new moon will help to plant new seeds of manifestation to continue along that path or to change your mind towards a new/edited goal. Watch out for talking too much and losing your thoughts since they will be downloading very quickly. Avoid over stimulation and try to stay centered.
    Planets continues to bring on inner and outer changes as we head towards a new era next year when Pluto stations in Aquarius until 2042!!
    Keep clarity at the forefront of your minds as we continue to experience events beyond our control. Remember to stay flexible in body, mind, and heart as we all navigate new terrain for our soul's growth.
    *Continue to be mindful in actions, but especially words as we now know that words DO HURT..*

  • Ultimate Guide: What does it mean when a planet is RETROGRADE??
    Welcome to my first episode of the Ultimate Guide of astrology/ beginning with RETROGRADES! I delve into a very confusing topic that I gets asked about a lot!! Being born with 5 retrograded planets at birth, I have first hand knowledge of how these transits affect short/long term goals,values,and life.Planets travel around the Sun in an elliptical or oval shape at a speed depending on their distance from the sun. As you can imagine the further away a planet is from the Sun,the slower it takes to travel all the way around the Sun.Therefore,Mercury’s travel is the quickest around the Sun in as little as 4 to 6 weeks.The moon however, only travels around the earth and it takes 30 days or so.Recently Pluto began its retrograde in Aquarius on June 11th. It has traveled backwards into Capricorn where it was for the past 12+ years. This weekend Saturn will begin its retrograde in Pisces, to be followed by Neptune on June 30th also in Pisces.On July 23rd, the comet Chiron, personal healer, will begin its retrograde in Aries. Venus also retrogrades the same day of July 23 in Leo until September 4, 2023 -bringing our attention to our inner most precious values. Uranus joins in the retrograde party on August 29th until January 21, 2024 in Taurus. Mercury not wanting to be left out will begin its third retrograde of the year August 23rd until September 15th, and then again on December 13th until January 2, 2024. With so many planets retrograde in 2023, we are being asked to slow down and download the messages from the cosmos. The more patient and flexible you’re able to be this year into next year-the better

  • VENUS JOINS MARS IN LEO/PLUTO MOVES BACK TO CAPRICORN (Weekly Astro Report June 6-12,2023)

    Big first week of June brought some relaxing moments, but some very sad destructive human errors/greed also rocked our value systems as Venus shifted into Leo for a five month stay.

    Venus joins Mars for two weeks before beginning its long nap in Leo. Personal values and actions ring loud and true in Leo as we push our limits in what we want. Lots of egos will on display and we could get tired of the loud parades and festivals. Take time for yourself is the message of Venus in Leo. Hone in on your uniqueness and be yourself while not becoming a narcissist..

    The moon in Capricorn started out our work week helping tremendously to bring clarity towards what kind of work makes us happy. Many will begin changes towards their work life, either starting, changing, or quitting.

    Flow with the changes as Pluto begins its move backwards during its long nap in Aquarius on June 11th, returning to Capricorn for most of the year. Pluto is looking to finish up it's makeover of all things Capricorn-- institutions, banks, schools, business, politics, family, etc. Individually, Pluto pushes the depths of our inner emotional world and rebuilds it anew in order for our confidence to continue to grow and for us to evolve.

    Moon enters Aquarius on Wednesday bringing more emotional detachment in order to finish rebuilding what is needed in order to move forward.

    Pisces moon brings on the weekend vibes with dreamy flexible emotional energy to help us to find faith in our future without needing to know all the nitty gritty details.

    By next week, Aries moon brings on the initial energy to make those dreams into reality joining in Venus and Mars fiery energy from Leo.

    *Find time to meditate and continue your deep breathing while focusing on quiet and visualizing your dreams.*

  • May 2023 Golden Guest: Oscar Arce-Naranjo
    Please help me in welcoming May's Golden Guest Oscar Arce-Naranjo, formerly from Mexico: and now living in California, where he is a Short Film Programmer for Sonoma Film Festival. Oscar joins me to discuss his latest project as a filmmaker, actor, director, producer, short film programmer, and a screenwriter. Currently, Oscar is a judge for a short film contest in CA.
    We met at Sundance Film Festival this year in Park City, Utah where I had the privilege of working with Oscar at The Ray Theatre. Oscar is a very caring and kind person whom I quickly became friends with, as well as my son Augy -who also volunteered with me this year.
    Discussing filmmaking is always an awesome topic for me here on this podcast. Movies have always played a vital role in any filmmaker's motivation for volunteering at a film festival. Bringing like minded souls together for their love of films usually results in long term friendships, especially if we continue to return.
    Oscar's cultural background bonded us quickly as we navigate the English language, and it's many double entendres- a testament to Oscar's latest screenplay's title!! As Hollywood continues to transition into the new era of worldwide access, cultural based cinema/tv/streaming are more in demand than ever before. Seeing and understanding other cultures help to alleviate dangerous trends in our world.
    Oscar will be producing his second short film since 2019, beginning this Memorial weekend in the USA. I wish him and his production crew the best of luck, as I know they will be having a blast making their dreams come true. Like anything else, filmmaking is done because it comes from the heart and minds of artists that wish to unite all into a cozy understanding that our differences really do make us better human beings.
    If you would like to contribute to Oscar's short film -please donate here: IG: @arce271 -- gofund.me/b28b7cf7

  • Weekly Astrology Report May 16-22, 2023

    Welcome to a week of manifesting your destiny as many planets shift this week bringing abundance and radical changes.


    Jupiter enters Taurus Tuesday to remain for a year changing the speed of our daily life. Taurus' characteristics of slow stubborn loyalty will be rewarded as persistence pays off. Luxury and comfort become the mainstay for this year of opulence and financial gains. However, beware of the tendency to be rigid and judgmental of yourself and others.


    Sun also moves into Gemini bringing fresh air and communications to the world. Shaking off the relaxed Taurus vibes, and leaning into the social vibes of Gemini brings the end of Spring. Expect a lot of talking and air headedness to occur also for some as the downloads from the cosmos continues. Stay mindful and manifest your dreams.


    Mars breaks out of Cancer where it was a little too much like quick sand and sprints into Leo -leading us into the summer mood. Venus will join Mars shortly to stay in Leo for five months!!


    The outer planets- Pluto in Aquarius, Saturn in Pisces, Uranus in Taurus, and Jupiter in Taurus- continue to impact epic changes to our landscape. The new moon in Taurus this week brings an opening of manifestation that lasts until the next full moon in Taurus in six months time. It has never been more receptive in the universe than now as we begin a new era leading to the Age of Aquarius. This new moon is the first in Taurus since eclipse season. Never before have we all been alive for these cosmic occurrences as we are pushed to accept AI taking over more human jobs in the very near future.


    Manifestation is the vibe for this week as we prepare to enter a summer full of comic events. It's truly a very exciting time to be alive. Believe in yourself and others through kindness that you give yourself first- then share the love.


    *Breathe deeply and listen to your intuition in order to navigate the changes affecting you.*
