The Cosmic Glow-Up Podcast - Reclaim Confidence, Connection & Joy with Human Design, Astrology & Intuition

What if this season isn't asking you to become a better version of yourself, but a more honest version of yourself?

In this Moon Day Motivation, we're moving out of eclipse season and into a powerful period of reassessment, reflection, and reset. With the Sun in Virgo, we're being invited to come back to the basics: our bodies, our routines, our energy, and the question, "Is the way I'm living actually supporting the person I'm becoming?"

I share a personal Virgo Rising reset, including an unexpected refrigerator breakdown that became the perfect reminder to clean out, simplify, and recognize what was no longer working. Then I pull three crystal oracle cards for the collective around what we're ready to release, what truth we're ready to acknowledge, and what wants to emerge in this next chapter.

I'll also walk you through the upcoming astrology, including the shift from Virgo Season into Libra Season, Venus retrograde beginning October 3, Mercury retrograde beginning October 24, and both Mercury and Venus turning direct on November 13.

Plus, you'll get three journal prompts to help you work with this energy:

✨ What is my body asking for? ✨ What is unnecessarily complicated? ✨ What do I want to value differently?

This is your invitation to clean up what needs cleaning up, simplify what no longer needs to be complicated, listen to your body, and make space for the version of you that's ready to emerge.

You are not behind. You don't need to fix yourself. Sometimes the glow up begins with simply coming back to yourself.

The Pisces Lunar Eclipse, Motherhood & the Threshold of Seven

The August 28 Pisces Lunar Eclipse invites us into a different kind of release: not necessarily letting go of the people, relationships, identities, or dreams we love, but letting go of the version of them that may no longer fit.

In this episode, Crystal explores the Pisces Lunar Eclipse of August 28, 2026, what this eclipse may be illuminating collectively, and how to work with the emotional, intuitive, and energetic themes of Pisces.

But this eclipse is deeply personal for Crystal, too. It falls on her daughter's seventh birthday, opening a much deeper reflection on motherhood, independence, seven-year cycles, Saturn, and the bittersweet experience of watching someone you love become more fully themselves.

Crystal also shares why this eclipse feels particularly significant through her own astrology, and how that personal experience became the doorway into a much bigger collective conversation.

Because sometimes the invitation isn't to walk away.

Sometimes it's to let go without letting go.

What are you being asked to release, feel, or allow to change?

🌕 In this episode:

• The August 28, 2026 Pisces Lunar Eclipse
• What lunar eclipses can illuminate and bring to the surface
• Pisces, Virgo, intuition, discernment & surrender
• The symbolism of seven-year cycles and Saturn
• Motherhood, independence & developmental thresholds
• What it means to release without abandoning
• A reflection practice for working with the eclipse energy

You don't have to figure it all out. Witness it first.

This Total Solar Eclipse in Leo is asking us a powerful question: Where have you been hiding, performing an identity that no longer fits, or holding back the fullest expression of who you are?

In this episode, Crystal explores where Leo lands in each Rising Sign's chart and pulls cards to discover what is ready to REVEAL, RELEASE, or RECLAIM for you.

The Total Solar Eclipse in Leo is here, and instead of telling you which signs are "most affected," Crystal is inviting every Rising Sign into the conversation.

Eclipses are amplifiers. They accelerate what is already ready to shift, bringing things into greater awareness and inviting us to course-correct. And because this is a Solar Eclipse in Leo, the bigger collective question is around authentic self-expression: Where have you been hiding? Where have you been performing an identity that no longer fits? Where are you ready to reclaim your creativity, your heart, your voice, and your right to be fully yourself?

In this episode, Crystal breaks down where Leo is landing in each Rising Sign's chart, then pulls cards for each sign to explore what is ready to be revealed, released, or reclaimed in that area of life.

You'll hear messages around creativity, money, relationships, career, identity, spirituality, community, purpose, daily routines, and so much more.

And at the end, Crystal introduces The Eclipse Quad, an intimate four-week container for eight people to receive personalized eclipse-season guidance directly from her through WhatsApp.

✨ Listen for your Rising Sign, receive the card message, and then ask yourself: What is this eclipse showing me that I'm ready to see differently?

Have you ever felt like you've been growing in ways no one else could see?

Today, Jupiter forms a trine to Neptune while also engaging with Pluto, as Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto all gather around the fourth degree of their new signs. Together, they create a powerful invitation to build a new foundation rooted in authenticity, trust, and soul-led expansion.

In this Moon-day Motivation episode, I'm sharing why I've taken a quieter season over the past few months, what I've learned through healing my body, mind, and spirit, and why this week's astrology feels like an invitation to stop hiding and start expressing.

Together we'll explore the difference between the inner planets, the outer planets, and why Jupiter acts as the bridge between your everyday life and your soul's evolution. I'll also walk you through where Jupiter is inviting expansion in your birth chart based on the house where Leo falls.

Plus, we'll begin with a powerful oracle card and intuitive message to guide your week.

In this episode you'll discover:

✨ Why not every season is meant to be visible

✨ The difference between your personal planets and your soul planets

✨ How Jupiter bridges who you are with who you're becoming

✨ Where Leo is inviting growth in your life over the next year

✨ Journal prompts to help you dream bigger, trust yourself, and take the leap

This episode is a reminder that your healing isn't separate from your purpose. It may be the very thing preparing you for it.

I thought I was traveling to Sedona for a retreat, inspiration, and a little business networking.

What I didn't expect was a profound reminder that we're not meant to do life alone.

In this deeply personal episode, I'm sharing the unexpected experiences that unfolded during my time in Sedona, including an ancestral healing experience during breathwork, a surprising connection to my late aunt who visited Sedona for years, and a symbolic gift that appeared at a vortex when I needed it most.

But this episode isn't really about Sedona.

It's about sisterhood.

It's about the women who came before us, the women who walk beside us now, and what happens when we finally allow ourselves to receive support instead of carrying everything on our own.

In this episode, we'll explore:

✨ Ancestral healing and feminine lineage ✨ The power of being held during difficult moments ✨ Why women often struggle to receive support ✨ My "Sisterhood Inventory" reflection questions ✨ Venus opposite Pluto and lessons around connection, trust, and receiving ✨ How astrocartography helped me understand my Sedona experience

As we step into Cancer Season and the energy of the Summer Solstice, this conversation feels like a reminder to soften, receive, and remember that transformation rarely happens in isolation.

Sometimes the next level isn't another strategy.

It's having someone reflect your gifts back to you, help you trust your intuition, and remind you of who you are becoming.

Because your next glow-up may be waiting on the other side of connection.

Have you ever traveled somewhere and felt completely different… more alive, emotional, inspired, creative, healed, or somehow more yourself?

In this episode, Crystal finally dives deep into Astrocartography. This is the branch of astrology that maps your birth chart across the globe to reveal which places activate different parts of your energy, purpose, relationships, healing, visibility, career, and identity.

But instead of just teaching the technical side, she shares the deeply personal stories that made her truly believe in this work. From her healing experience in Rome after infertility and loss, to discovering how Indianapolis activated a supportive career line for her, you'll better understand how astrocartography may help explain why certain places completely change us.

She also breaks down: ✨ what astrocartography actually is ✨ the meaning of planetary lines ✨ how locations activate your energy ✨ why short trips can be life-changing ✨ and how to begin exploring your own map

• the meaning of Sun, Moon, Venus, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter & Saturn lines
• the difference between AC, DC, MC & IC lines
• how to start exploring your own astrocartography chart
• and the biggest misconceptions people have about locational astrology

This episode is part education, part storytelling, and honestly… part soul remembering.

Because sometimes certain places don't just change our circumstances. They unlock entirely new versions of who we are.

Happy Gemini Season!

After a few months away, Crystal returns with a deeply personal and timely episode on one of the most significant astrological shifts of our era — Neptune's move into Aries. She opens up about navigating eclipse season, perimenopause, and her own hermit phase before diving into what this generational transit means for how we access and act on our intuition.

Crystal shares her personal journey from Catholic upbringing to card reader to intuitive channel, and breaks down why Neptune in Aries is calling us to stop quietly sensing things and start moving on them. She introduces two powerful concepts — the "peekhole" framework for understanding how childhood experiences shut down our natural intuition, and the smell analogy as a way to understand what a true intuitive hit actually feels like in the body.

The episode closes with a grounding body-based exercise to help you identify your own intuitive language — and an invitation to join Crystal's returning Cartomancy (Intuitive Card reading) class on April 26th.

Perfect for anyone feeling the pull to finally trust themselves and act on it.

The cosmos is delivering one of the most significant energetic shifts in decades — and this episode breaks it all down.

At the center of it all is the Aquarius Solar Eclipse on February 17th, falling on the exact same day as the Lunar New Year and the start of the Year of the Fire Horse. Host Crystal Dascomb walks you through what solar eclipses mean energetically, why this one is accelerating identity shifts and liberation, and — most importantly — how to find exactly where it's hitting your birth chart by house.

She also unpacks Neptune's move into Aries (for the first time in 165 years), the powerful Saturn-Neptune conjunction on February 20th, and the incoming Mercury Retrograde in Pisces — and how all of these energies work together in a cosmic sequence rather than contradiction.
