CombustAstrology

In this Episode of the CombustAstrology Podcast, I get to sit-down with a fellow Astrologer Katie @NewMedicineRising and we go over the Chiron in Taurus retrograde, following a Full Moon in Aquarius & the Venus mars squares.

We then dive very deep into the notion of what the Solar Total Eclipse(NM) will be expected to be doing from our POV & also why it is that Venus and Mars are being heavily covered by Katie. We then talk about how all the outer planets are communicating and what Leo and Aquarius really have to do to make this all happen peacefully (if any) in the end. 

In this Episode of the CombustAstrology Podcast, I get to sit-down with a fellow Astrologer Katie @NewMedicineRising about her experience with this month of July. We talk about the recent retrograde in Mercury and how that felt like a smack in the face, the source of the smack though was deeper than most realize. 

We dive into that depth through Venus & the story she is trying to show us by stepping in the past and looking into the future. We then look into how Saturn in Aries plays a part in this and how the squares of the fixed signs in June and soon the Venus retrograde in August will come together to REALLY highlight this story. 

In the back though we see how Pluto in Aquarius is preparing us for the future & how Uranus in Gemini is just here to give us perception(s) even though he's apart of the Full moon.

In this episode of CombustAstrology, we pause.

Recorded under the current transits of June 19, 2026, this episode explores what it means to rest in a culture obsessed with momentum. We reflect on the collective atmosphere, the pressure to keep moving, and the wisdom that comes from standing still long enough to hear yourself think.

I discuss the upcoming themes of Chiron in Taurus, the future South Node in Leo, and the influence of the outer planets as they continue reshaping our relationship with security, identity, creativity, and purpose.

As old narratives around recognition and performance begin to fade, we’re invited to reconnect with what truly matters beneath the noise.

This episode is a reminder that rest IS GROWTH

Take a breath. Stay present. Stand still with yourself.

So I started recording for my YouTube page and the audio recorded but my screen did not. Therefore its going on the pod & ill re-record for YouTube later! 

When technology gives you errors, squeeze em or whatever lol

 Episode fourteen of Combust Astrology, joined by Acacia. This one's a lot more raw and conversational than usual, less structured astrology breakdown and more just us talking through our own synastry, our Virgo and Scorpio placements, and how astrology has shaped how we understand each other in our relationship. We get into perfectionism, past friendships that didn't have healthy boundaries, going through Saturn returns side by side, and what it's actually looked like to grow together through some hard stuff. This is part one, part two picks up talking about family and the nodes. Fair warning, this one's more personal than most episodes. 

 Episode thirteen of Combust Astrology, joined by Charlie, one of the readers at Casa Shanti. We get into her whole experience going through her Saturn return in Pisces, which included getting sober, leaving a partner, and going through a period of spiritual psychosis before coming out the other side. I break down her chart on air (Venus, Saturn, Moon, and Mercury all in Pisces, first house), and we talk about what it actually looks like to heal through that kind of transit. From there we get into masculine and feminine energy, platonic love and boundaries with friendships, queer platonic partnerships, and what's ahead with Chiron moving into Taurus and Uranus into Gemini. A really open, personal conversation about growth and finally getting to be on the other side of a hard transit.

In Episode 13 of CombustAstrology, we sit at the threshold between two eras: the end of Saturn in Pisces and the beginning of Saturn in Aries.

We reflect on what Saturn in Pisces demanded of us. Changing under uneasy pressure, emotional endurance which spiritually growing. A gruesome time of trying to of navigating Piscean fog. What did we avoid? What did we dissolve? What did we outgrow?

Then we turn toward Saturn in Aries and what it asks for now. Courage. Initiative. Ownership. Embodied leadership that is really a lot of slow STABLE growth.

I’m joined by Charlie, the newest reader at CasaShanti, who brings her Pisces stellium perspective as we also review Pisces season. We talk about the growth we've experienced, growing your spiritual gifts, platonic friendship dynamics, and what it really means to step into your ability without shrinking.

 Episode twelve of Combust Astrology, back after taking a bit of a break and having several guests on the show. Big shout out to Jasmina, Kakada, Becca, and Rich for coming on while I stepped away. This one's called "The Catch Up," where I go over everything happening astrologically in 2026: Saturn moving into Aries in February, why that matters after all the Neptune in Pisces confusion we've been in, and how to actually pace yourself through this transition instead of rushing it. I get into my own experience with my Saturn return, why slowing down was the actual lesson for me, and then look ahead to the middle of the year with Jupiter moving into Leo, Uranus into Gemini, and the nodes shifting into Leo and Aquarius. Longer episode, but a good roadmap for the year ahead. 

 Joined by astrologer Rich Kiska for this one, who focuses a lot of his work on pop culture, politicians, and public figures. We start off breaking down the chart of a well known, controversial figure (we keep it pretty redacted on purpose) and go deep into what the placements say about control, secrecy, and the darker side of Pisces and Scorpio energy. From there we get into death charts, transits on the day someone passes, and look at a few examples including Tina Turner and a world leader's helicopter crash. Rich shares how he approaches reading for public figures respectfully, and we talk about the difference between reading charts for clients versus reading them for people in the public eye. A fun, deep dive episode for anyone into the more analytical side of astrology.

Joined by Becca from Breaking Reality with Becca, someone I connected with on TikTok. We start off talking about her experience growing up in a Christian cult and how that shaped her whole approach to self-discovery. Then we dive into progressed charts: what they are, how I explain them to clients, and how to actually read your own evolution through them. We go deep into Becca's chart specifically, from her South Node healing to her progressed Sun moving from Leo into Virgo, her Uranus opposition, and what her chart shows about the years she spent teaching special education. Lots of good discussion on faith, healing, and living out your chart in real time.
