Welcome to the November Astrology & Akashic Forecast! This month, we dive deep into the rhythm of the season, slowing down and honoring the cycles that guide us inward.
We explore how planetary alignments are urging us to get practical, connect with our ancestors, and tune into our own sacred inner kingdom. Below is a breakdown of each week's key themes and energies. Tune in as we navigate this journey of cosmic insight, guiding you to align with November's transformative and stabilizing currents.
Please note that each week is now timestamped -finding the week you wish you listen to.
November 1st - 3rd [18:04]
Week 1 [23:18 timestamp]: As the seasons turn, this week invites you to tend to yourself with the same devotion you might give your home or hearth. With the Sun and Moon in Scorpio trine Saturn, it's a great time to honor your shadowy parts and set intentions around intuition.
Week 2 [27:50 timestamp]: The ancestors are calling, and this week is about listening beyond the usual senses. As Venus moves into Capricorn, embrace the discipline of pleasure and allow it to guide you. Tune into the subtle messages around you — in nature, in your dreams, and in quiet moments of reflection.
Week 3 [36:20 timestamp]: Step into a week of wild revelation and unexpected truths as Mercury slows down and Pluto enters Aquarius. Trust the wisdom within and let your boundaries be rooted as you navigate what is surfacing. Remember, grounded awareness brings clarity, no matter what stories unfold around you.
Week 4 [45:20 timestamp]: Rediscover the divine in yourself this week by releasing old beliefs and definitions as Mercury retrogrades. This is a chance to experience the holy within you — not as something outside, but as a presence that is always here, waiting for you to say hello. As the Sun trines Mars, take action to open yourself up to different perspectives and let go of the stale narratives that have held you back.

In this episode, I share the story that reshaped my life: becoming a mother in 2011 and losing my father in 2012. Life didn’t just turn upside down—it shattered and remade me in the fires of both M O T H E R H O O D and loss. This is my origin story.
I dive deep into the raw truth of my father's death—how he left this world with rage, anger, and venom in his heart. His final words, though forgotten, left a brand on my soul, one that has guided me ever since. That venom, oddly enough, became my anti-venom. It saved me from a life of complacency, codependency, and mediocrity.
In this episode, we explore:
✨ How the wounds from my father’s anger became a path to healing and transformation.
✨ The promise I made to myself: "I will not die with bitterness in my heart, and I will not pass this on to my children."
✨ The invitation from ancestors, divine whispers, and inner guidance to walk this path of self-discovery.
✨ Forgiveness as an ongoing practice, even when the person who hurt you isn’t here to hear it.
✨ The tools and modalities I’ve learned over a decade—not to grow a business, but to become the best mother and partner I can be.
This isn't just about grief or motherhood—it's about the deeper invitations life gives us to become. To break free from the patterns that no longer serve us. To embrace the full spectrum of love, presence, and purpose, even when things get hard.
You’ll also hear how my business is evolving to reflect this journey, with a focus on stewardship, love without conditions, and embracing the chaos with grace. If you’re ready to step into your own transformation, join me in ATTUNED, my practice for mothers seeking nourishment on the path of inner work.

This month, your ancestors are whispering, not from some far-off cosmic realm but from the land under your feet and the air around you. Their wisdom is not elusive; it’s present in the warmth of the sun, the breeze on your skin, and even in the pride of a child. October is about feeling this connection—embracing the magic already within you and recognizing the deep support you have from those who came before.
Key Highlights:
With a solar eclipse, new moon, and potent full moon energy this month, you're being asked to release old patterns, tap into ancestral wisdom, and take actions that align with your soul’s purpose. Are you ready to listen? Your ancestors are waiting.

Welcome back to another episode of "This Crazy Little Thing Called Life" with your host, Meg Thompson! In this episode, Meg & resident Astrologer Stevie Calista dive deep into the Akashic and Astrology forecast for August, exploring the transformative energies that are awakening humanity.
The Akashic Forecast for August reminds us that amid the wild winds of change, our very existence was born from chaos. This month, it's crucial to center ourselves, reconnect with our bodies, and create safe spaces for ourselves and others during these times of transformation.
Astrologically, August is a roller coaster of expansion and contraction. The Leo New Moon on August 4th encourages us to roar our individual truths and plant new seeds of self-expression. With Venus in Virgo, it’s a perfect time for organizing and productivity. As Mercury retrogrades, we face moments of stillness and introspection, revisiting unfinished projects and unresolved conversations. The peak of Leo’s energy during Llamas highlights the need to embrace both light and shadow. The Mars-Jupiter alignment on August 14th brings big, awakening energy, perfect for new ideas and projects. The Aquarius Full Moon squares Uranus, creating an electrifying tension that urges us to find our individual place within the collective.
Tune in to this enlightening episode and join Meg & Stevie Calista as she navigates the cosmic currents of August, offering insights and guidance to help you ride the waves of change with grace and resilience.

Today’s episode is a deeply personal one. I’m sharing my journey of how I’m finally living my 10-year plan after 13 years of trials, spiritual work, and countless failures. It’s been a long road, but I’m here to tell you it’s possible.
When I had my daughter, all I wanted was to slow down, enjoy good food, and reconnect with my roots. My big dream was to work from home, raise my child and chickens, and return to the land. It’s taken over a decade and a lot of shifting from the Achievement Mind—constantly seeking external validation—to tuning into my own system, dreams, and goals.
Now, I’m living on a small farm, raising chickens, growing a massive garden, and watching my two kids play outside while I work from home. It wouldn’t have been possible without the shifts I’m sharing with you in this episode.
We’ll dive into the difference between the Achievement Mind and the Belonging Mind. Have you ever found yourself chasing goals, only to feel unfulfilled? Or questioned your worth, asking, "Who am I to pursue this dream?" If so, you’re in the right place.
We’re exploring the true nature of imposter syndrome and why these doubts arise. It’s time to stop asking "Who am I to?" and start embracing "Who are you not to?" We’ll uncover practical strategies and evidence-based insights to help you overcome these mental blocks and start sharing your unique gifts with the world.
This episode is for you if:
Join me as we explore these themes and I share my personal experience of moving from self-doubt to self-belief. Trust me, it’s going to feel incredible when you finally let go of those doubts and step into your power! 🤪
Don’t miss this empowering episode. Tune in now and let’s journey together towards a life where your achievements and sense of belonging coexist beautifully.
Big love,
Meg
