Beloved ones, how are you out there? Content, I hope. The tides are turning, retrograde season is upon us. Taking it both as an opportunity to listen deeper to the wisdom of the Inner Self, while also taking it as a cue to slow down. Nothing needs to ‘happen’, right now — stillness is a vital part of every growth cycle.

Here’s the breakdown of the week;

* Sunday, Mercury stations retrograde at 9* of Sagittarius. Whose story are you living? This is the myth of your life; depending on how the narrator (you) chooses to tell it, the story is directed from there. Working with the narratives of Mind can create a lot of agency for change.

* Tuesday, Jupiter stations retrograde at 25* of Cancer. The current Ruler of Mercury’s placement, this is all interconnected. The little stories create the larger narrative arch; zoom out. Take a moment to gain perspective + examine the landscape. This isn’t about ‘figuring things out’ - it’s about taking the seat of the Witness as vital ritual awareness. Only from here can we make informed decisions, when the time comes. The art of observation, with a lot of self-compassion.

* Wednesday, retrograde mercury passes by a fiery Mars in Sagittarius. They do a secret handshake + wink at one another, mischief makers. The unexpected is our greatest teacher; pay attention to what information comes through your lived experience this week. It likely carries insight + a shift in perspective.

Overall, take it easy, and move slow if you can. The astrology is meant for change, or at least supporting us in becoming aware of where we’re ready for it. See you next week for the Scorpio New Moon <3

STUDY ASTROLOGY WITH ME <3

As many of you know, last year I released my first full Online Course in Astrology. It is the accumulation of over a decade of my own research across multiple Astrological systems, synthesized into a journey of storytelling, teachings + celestial magick.

The Online Course itself is full of over 50+ hours of Teachings, Meditations + Practices to deepen your study of the stars. A wealth of teachings, for both beginner + experienced practitioners alike. In honor of the Dark Months + Wintering Season, I am offering a discount for anyone that might feel drawn to this work. Use the code below for 30% off the entire Course*, for both the pay-in-full or 12-month payment plans!☆ WINTER30 ☆*this applies only to the Online Course itself, not the additional Mentorship Group. This option will open for application in Spring 2026.

(Code expires by Black Friday!)

You will have lifetime access to the Course Library, as well as the invitation to join future cohorts of the Live Group Mentorship program that opens each year. Our next cycle begins in 2026 and the online course content is a prerequisite to join; now is the perfect time to begin your study :)

This is not just a course of study; it is a living library of Ancient, Ancestral Wisdom. The teachings in this course focus on developing a relationship with Earth + Sky as a form of Animist remembrance, celebrating the aliveness of the World around us. It is the recovery of this Ancestral study + celebration of the Sky as a Map, the Earth as Territory. Myth, story, and tradition guide our journey into the Heart.

Scholarships are ALWAYS available for BIPOC+ individuals. Simply shoot me an email and we’ll discuss what can support your needs. I’d be honored for you to join.

All my Love! Hope to see some of you there!! <3 Teagan
