With the outer planets changing signs recently, nearly everyone is experiencing a major transit to their birth chart in some form or other. 

In this episode, I offer a metaphor as an explanation. I hope it helps!

Thank you so much for listening!

Thank you so much for listening! You keep me going! You can watch this on my YouTube channel.

I mentioned an online workshop I will be teaching to introduce the four elemental building blocks on Sunday 2/15. Here are the details:

Fire, Earth, Air, and Water describe how we move through life:
 how we act, feel, think, and stay grounded.

This workshop offers a simple, calming framework for understanding stress, balance, and self-care—especially when the world feels demanding or uncertain.

Come curious. No experience required.

Link to register: https://mcallisteracademy.com/your-connection-to-earth-air-fire-and-water

Astrology and Acupuncture will be taking place on February 17 and February 19 at Saha Health in Kirkland, WA.

Booking Link: To make the booking, go to joinsaha.com, click on"Book Now", select the 17th or 19th, and click the checkbox next to "Lunar New Year" special.

Your astrological birth chart is a unique blueprint of your emotional wiring, innate gifts, recurring patterns, and soul lessons. 

Acupuncture brings this insight into the body. Where astrology offers language and meaning, acupuncture works directly with the nervous system and energetic pathways, helping release what the psyche has carried for too long. 

Together, they create a bridge between awareness and embodiment — translating insight into felt change.

Thanks so much for listening! I refer to a list of Key Astro Events for 2026, which you will find on my Substack in today's (released a few hours after the podcast) twin post to this podcast episode.

I also mention a zoom workshop I am teaching Monday Jan 12th on The Big Three in Astrology. Your Big Three (Sun, Moon, & Rising) provide the framework for how you approach life and how life encounters your individual energy. 

Understanding the dynamic between your specific energetic blueprint (your birth chart), other people’s, and the transiting planets helps you coordinate with rather than aggravate the energies!

Start 2026 off by intentionally connecting with your Big Three, and cultivating internal alignment before you begin manifesting in this Universal 1 year.

For more info, please go here. The cost is $64.
