Hello everyone! This week, we will look at the month of August.

Bhagavad Gita 18.47: It is better to do one’s own dharma, even though imperfectly, than to do another’s dharma, even though perfectly.

Perhaps the most influential transits of the month are Venus in Gemini, Mars oppose Saturn, and the Sun entering its own sign of Leo...

Mars in Virgo will bring in a grounding energy and will shift our focus to health, daily rituals, and practical service - on a personal and global level. It’s a powerful time for healing the body, mind, and spirit. It is also powerful for clearing clutter and refining what’s not working.

It is a beautiful time to offer service to others by offering time, energy, or resources to what we care about. There will be a global call to action concerning humanitarian efforts and addressing humanitarian crises.

Mars and Saturn sit in opposition, bringing tension between discipline and action, restriction and willpower. This can cause a "stop-go" energy. We may struggle in knowing how to direct our energy or how to use our energy wisely. It's possible we experience limitations internally or externally. In this podcast, we discuss practical ways to move through this period with grace and strategy.

Venus in Gemini adds a playful, intellectual essence to our relationships, highlighting the beauty of platonic love. We explore how spiritually enriching our soul-deep friendships can be.

On a collective level, issues related to water, flooding, or natural disasters may continue to be prominent. We’re reminded of nature’s force and the need to care for both the planet and our own internal tides.
