April 2025 isn’t easing in quietly—it’s roaring in with powerful planetary energies that demand our attention.

Notable Quotes
[03:41] “Mars and Pluto alone at the end of this month is volatile. Mars is a whole lot of feisty energy, a whole lot of fight. And Pluto is this planetary composting agent that takes all of the anger and the resentment and eradicates it to clean the slate for something new.” - Rachel
[06:46] “This Mars Pluto opposition is a time when you can access anger, bring it up to the surface, and express it outwardly. It's also a time when we could see a lot of impulsive action.” - Rachel
[09:51] “April 26th is especially pronounced for instability and eruption of energy. Incidentally, that is also the day of the balsamic Moon, the busiest phase of the lunation cycle.” - Rachel
[11:24] “Venus in Aries is a very independent Venus placement. Our relationships need a little spaciousness and not too much together time.” - Rachel
[18:01] “Saturn enters Aries at the end of May, ushering in a new 30-year cycle. It's a significant turning point in our world and in our astrology.” - Rachel
[20:04] “We could see a technological attack or an escalation of the trade war. Whatever fury and fire gets sparked is going to motivate people to say, ‘I want to do things differently.’” - Rachel
[22:38] “Chiron and Eris, when these two meet up, it's like anyone who has a passion for righting wrongs is going to speak out.” - Rachel
[51:15] “This is a time of planting those seeds that will harvest between now and 2027.” - Rachel

March 27, 2025Decoding the Retrogrades: Navigating Mercury and Venus Cycles
Something is shifting—can you feel it? A pull, a ripple, a quiet inner knowing that something big is on the horizon. But what kind of change? And are you ready for it?

March 2025 isn’t just another month—it’s a cosmic inflection point. With two eclipses, two personal planet retrogrades, and Neptune shifting signs, the energy is intense, emotional, and transformational. In this episode of The Rachel Lang Show, Rachel unpacks all the astro-details you need to navigate it with clarity and grace.

Rachel breaks down what Mercury and Venus retrogrades really mean—beyond the internet myths and Mercury memes. She explores how Mercury retrograde in Aries and Pisces is stirring up communication mishaps, tech glitches, and deep internal realizations. Meanwhile, Venus retrograde is pulling us inward, asking big questions about relationships, finances, and self-worth.

She also explains how both retrogrades are connecting with Neptune just before it moves into Aries—amplifying intuition, dreams, and the need to surrender control. Plus, Rachel shares how these transits are likely to affect each sign, so you can personalize your own spiritual and emotional navigation.

This isn’t just about astrology—it’s about how you show up during moments of uncertainty. Rachel offers grounded, compassionate guidance for tuning into your intuition, setting clear boundaries, and choosing courage over comfort. You’ll also hear why the March 29 eclipse is a major energetic reset, and how to prepare for it—especially if you’re feeling like the universe hit “pause” on your plans.

If you’ve felt stuck, off-track, or just a little more emotional lately, this episode will help you make sense of it all—and remind you that you’re not alone. Plus, Rachel shares details about her upcoming Sedona retreat, where you can go even deeper into your spiritual healing journey.

Notable Quotes
[00:06:38] “Mercury retrograde gives us a flashlight to go into the dark caves of our psyche and shine a light. And so we discover hidden talents, we reconnect with our past, we reconnect with people from our past.” – Rachel
[00:14:25] “ Ultimately, I'm of the belief that everything that happens is symbolic of something, that the universe is speaking to us through all of these little mishaps and all of these things that happen in our lives.” – Rachel
[00:17:45] “ I'm noticing this Venus retrograde in particular is a time when we're being asked to be the leaders of our own lives and to take responsibility for our happiness.” – Rachel
[00:32:30] “ That self-love in the truest, deepest sense of the word is honoring your body, honoring yourself and sometimes doing the things like boundary setting or like making those conscious choices to live a healthier life. Sometimes, that's the best self-care that we can do. And there's such a snowball effect. When you start taking care of your body and your health, then your mental health and your energy level for making the most out of life also gets amplified.” – Rachel
[00:39:28] “ I am a timeless human being, a soul. I am so much more than my past. I'm so much more than my present, and I'm so much more than my future. I am full of infinite possibilities and let yourself be in love with where you are and all of the stellium of events and circumstances that led you to this miraculous place that you're in.” – Rachel
