Dana and I are back for April chatting all things Aries and Fire signs (neither of us have very much Fire in our charts!) and have some surprising insights about Mars, the ruler of Aries. We pulled a card from the Starseed Oracle Deck that helps us align with the initiating energy of April.
We also talk about:
Continuing conversation about Pluto's move into AquariusThe softer side of Mars and how it can lead to connection and love instead of anger and separationAries as an expression of knowing yourself and having conviction, which allows for confident and quick actionUnlearning conditioning around what is "selfish"The new moon solar eclipse in AriesMercury's going retrograde this month and it's all going to be okayFlowing from fiery Aries energy to grounded Taurus this monthAsides about revolutions and Bravo
“I think the other side of Mars that people forget, in terms of traditional rulership in Scorpio, is that softer side. Now we associate it with Aries and the fire and the battle, and the God of war and all of that stuff. But it's also that passion, Scorpio is the ultimate, sexy, passionate sign and we don't really associate that with Mars, but it is part of Mars is."Shared on the episode:

This month, Dana and I dive deep into the Neptunian and Piscean waters that will be the energetic background for February ahead of some big shifts in March. There’s not a ton of action in the skies ahead of next month’s adventures, so we’re exploring our native Sun signs, Aquarius and Pisces, and talking about different ways to work with your Moon. We also introduce a new segment with a card pull for the month!
We also talk about:
The significance of Venus conjuncting Neptune on February 15thVenus entering Aries on February 20th.Why Aries brings a focus on ourselvesWhy understanding your natal lunar phase can help you better understand yourselfThe astrology for squares and oppositions and how they can be opportunities for growthThe connection between each zodiac season and sign
“So you've got these three energies of Neptune, Venus, and Pisces all coming together, and they have some really important key similarities that are allowing us to make really beautiful connections. I think that's the catchphrase I would use, beautiful connections, revelry, just embracing and enjoying the moment and getting really swept away in it.” - DanaFind Lynnette:

This month, I'm teaming up with my astro BFF Dana of Self Help Witch (peep her as my first guest on the podcast in episode 2!) to talk about the key energies for January. We are keeping things simple and focused on the planetary events that are going to affect us the most: planets exiting retrograde and planets changing signs. January is a month of big shifts, with three planets stationing direct (hello end of retrograde season!). We give you the exact dates of each planet's pre-retrograde shadow, retrograde period, and post-retrograde shadow so you can see what was/is/and will be going on in your life during each time.
We also talk about:
Why I am leaving horoscopes behind and my astrological renaissanceThe energetic evolution with the shift from Sagittarius season to Capricorn season to Aquarius season How to use our intuition to guide usOur own personal ideals of Mars retrograde and how it actually turned outThe opportunity retrograde planets give usDana's experience with the Uranus-Pluto transit, which has been more about boundaries and karmic obligations than financial issuesThe full moon in CancerWhy the planetary energies are inviting you to be flexible with any new year's resolutionsVenus changing signs twice this monthThe Sun moving into Aquarius
"Go ahead and set your intentions if you want, on January 1st, and then let it be okay if they change and let it be okay if new stuff comes up that makes you wanna recalibrate as we move through Aquarius season and into the Equinox."Find Lynnette:

If you want to learn about the astrology of habits and how you can work with them as self-care, this podcast is for you!
Kelly Carlson is a certified habits and empowerment coach and the host of the One Bad Habit podcast.
Kelly is a Gemini Sun, Taurus Rising, Cancer Moon
In this episode, she and Lynnette discuss the power of habits, how they show up in your astrological chart, and how to connect with Saturn to make sure that you don’t live your life according to “shoulds”.
Kelly opens up about her rock bottom experience that transformed her view of habits, self-care, and body image and talks about her approach to changing habits one by one, little by little. Habits aren’t just something we should do, they are daily actions that we can choose with intention to honor and uplift ourselves.
Lynnette and Kelly also get astrological, talking about where habit and routine is in your birth chart, what it means to have empty houses in your chart, and making friends with Saturn, the planet of responsibility.
How our cultural background can shape our views on habits and self-careThe astrology of habits and how they can be used as self-careThe importance of choosing one habit to focus on at a timeHow trying a new habit for a set period of time can help us decide if it's something we actually likeThe importance of understanding why we want to take on a new habitHow to change our perspective on habitsKelly's intuition and connection to SpiritThe importance of finding balance between our North Node and South Node
I started to realize that habits aren't really, like I am, staying in affirmation every day or like I have this really beautiful aesthetic, like morning routine. It was really just how each week in small ways can I choose myself and how I can honor myself. And it doesn't really matter what that is. - Kelly CarlsonWhere to find Kelly:

How Astrology Can Be Used For Self-Care
October 9th, 2022
In this episode, I talk about how we can use astrology as a form of self-care. Self-care is not just about bubble baths and $17 smoothies, but about aligning with your cosmic blueprint and moving to the next level in your life.
Astrology and self-care have more in common than some people think, it can provide insights into our individual needs and how we can best take care of them. For example, understanding our birth chart can help us understand our natural strengths and weaknesses, and how we can use this knowledge to take care of ourselves in a way that is tailored just for us.
Astrology gives us a cosmic roadmap of our energetic blueprint, that helps us proactively and intentionally take steps toward the kind of self-care that helps us discover more about ourselves and continue our personal evolution.
I also remind you that you are so unique that the planets won't be in the exact same place in the sky a they are in your chart for 25,000 years!

Have you ever felt like you’re not meant to do just one thing for the rest of your life? Or felt the pull of escaping the corporate grind to travel the world and be your own boss?
Well podcast queen and host of In My Non-Expert Opinion, Chelsea Riffe, is on the pod today and has done both of those things! She and I chatted about her journey as a shape-shifting, globetrotter and entrepreneur and how she taps into her spirituality to support her in making some pretty big decisions.
Chelsea is an Aquarius Sun, Virgo Moon, and Virgo Rising
She is currently in the first month of a four-month trip with remote year starting in cape town and ending in Split, Croatia, so if you haven’t yet gotten to know her podcast now is the perfect time to start so you can hear all about her adventures…and see how it aligns with the locational astrology we talked about on her podcast last week!
This episode is for you if you’re looking for a fresh perspective on living your life to the fullest and breaking out of societal programming.
As I get older, it kind of ties back to the conversation we're having of embracing the fluidity instead of trying to stick to one thing and be known as one thing. I want to be known as someone that always evolves and is shedding their skin and like, yeah, you can expect me to change in a few years and maybe even a few months! - Chelsea RiffeChelsea and I also chat about:
Her current 4-month trip with Remote Year, travelling to Cape Town, Valencia, Lisbon, and SplitHer journey from corporate America to starting her own businessLiving out her very own Eat, Pray, Love journey in Australia, Bali, and EuropeThe importance of community when you’re an entrepreneurHow travel really shows you that time is just a constructBalancing our extraverted and introverted sidesHow future visioning can help you make decisions about what’s right for youUsing spirituality to guide you in leading the life you want to liveQuestioning why we’ve been told we have to do one thing for our whole lifeHow she embraces the energy of transformation and wants to be someone who changes regularlyWhat it’s like to have Pluto in Scorpio in the 3rd houseWhat it’s like being a Reflector in Human DesignHow she might over identify with her Sun sign and how she’s working to integrate other parts of her chartWhat it’s like having a Capricorn stellium in the 5th houseQuestioning the 40-hour week and 9-5 work dayWho decided on the symbolism of astrology and where does it come from?The advantage of exploring her locational astrology ahead of her transformational trip around the worldWhere to find Chelsea:

Have you ever wondered what the big deal is about your Saturn Return? Technically, it just means that Saturn is back to the same spot in the sky as it was when you were born, but it has quite the astrological reputation that rivals mercury retrograde!
Well, my guest today, Lucy Jobe, is at the tail end of hers and is sharing all about her experience with this and a couple other milestone transits.
Lucy is a Leo Sun, Sagittarius Moon, and Libra Rising
She is a project manager by day, word lover by night. A formerly grounded yogi still searching for roots in a new city. She’s lived all over the place with so many different people, and for the first time doesn’t know what’s coming next, so is learning to relax about that. She’s coping using at-home lattes, outside time, the Nashville dog rescue Instagram, Formula 1 races, and FaceTime, of course.
We dig into the milestone transits that come before a 30th birthday and how to navigate them instead of being afraid of them. We also talk about Chiron and how it’s so much more than just the wounded parts of ourself.
This episode is for you if you’re navigating or reflecting on your own Saturn Return or learning how to work with “challenging” planets or aspects.
Over the past few years, I’ve lived in, I don’t know, three, four different places. And it’s very interesting to settle down now and to not have a next step in mind. I move really fast and I’m always like, what’s coming up next, and right now I don’t know what that is. And so sitting with that and just being comfortable being stagnant…that’s probably not the word for it…the word is probably settled, but that’s new to me. And so I’m trying to figure out what that means. - Lucy JobeLucy and I also chat about:
Her background as a midwesterner and oldest of 4 sistersLiving abroad in Chile and Madrid and spending several years in CaliforniaSelling everything that didn’t fit in her car and taking a 4-month road trip across the Southwest before moving cross-countryHow her time in Chile taught her a love of being outdoorsTransitioning from constantly moving and looking toward what’s next to not knowing what’s next and feeling settledNot fully identifying with being a Leo Sun and having a Leo stelliumResonating with having a Libra rising and creating harmony between groups of peopleHaving a Sagittarius Moon and loving travel and adventureHaving your Sun conjunct Chiron in LeoFeeling “cursed” by not connecting with your Sun signAstrological stereotypesWhy we should go beyond our Sun signWhy astrologers shouldn’t guess your Sun signThe connection between astrology and yogaWhy Chiron can feel scary and how to work with itA really poor rendition of the Greek mythology behind ChironHow we often overlook the aspects of teaching, healing, and guidance with ChironHow ignoring your Saturn Return and Chiron can cause them to show up more fiercelyThe basics of what a Saturn Return isHow your Saturn Return and Uranus Trine are setting you up for your midlife transitsWhy Saturn is like a father in your chartWhy your Saturn Return is your entry into being a grown upHow to navigate a Saturn Return that retrogradesHow long you might feel your Saturn ReturnWhat happened to Lucy on the exact day of her Saturn ReturnHow having natal Saturn retrograde may support you in working with your Saturn ReturnHow to work with an opposition energy in your chartHow to read your horoscope based on what time of day you were bornWhat is your Uranus trine?Why a line a day journal is one of the best habits you can start!Using ritual to separate -
Have you ever wondered what the difference between a psychic, a medium, a channeler, and an intuitive is?
Well, my guest today, Alexandra Bebe Shelley, answers that question and more because she is all of those things!
Bebe is a Pisces Sun, Sagittarius Moon, and Scorpio Rising
She's had these "gifts" since the age of four, yet was never sure what they meant. Meanwhile, her creative outlets growing up were dancing, reading, and writing. Post-college, she pursued her career in advertising as a copywriter, interning and working at several well-renowned agencies. Once she realized her soul purpose as a Medium, she took the signs from Spirit. It's been many years of healing, self-development and training for her to be where she is today.
She's now building her business, Embody Your Soul—with the mission to help you discover your divine self through spiritual connection and practices. She holds private readings, Soul Circles and hosts her own podcast, Embody Your Soul.
Additionally, her outlet for books is through her book club, DogEared Book Club, where she hosts a bi-monthly podcast interviewing thought leaders, avid readers and book-content creators on how books have impacted their lives.
She opens up about what it’s like to be a psychic medium…and I straight up asked her how do you not get scared when the spirit world crosses into the 3D world and starts writing you notes in your mirror in the bathroom?! (this actually happened to her!)
We also talked about how connecting to your guides and cosmic cheerleaders PLUS having your astrological chart as your roadmap for navigating life can help you live a more intentional and embodied life. You’ve probably heard me say this before, but Intuition is data, astrology is data, and having these as tools in your toolbox help you to make informed decisions based on what’s right for you, right now.
We had so much fun, and Spirit even came in during the not-so-rapid-fire section to send some energy!
This episode is for you if you’ve ever wondered how you can connect to Spirit, Bebe gives some great practical tips and reminds us that we’re all psychic.
Tune in if you to hear more about the pretty large crossover that astrology and mediumship have in the Venn diagram of the esoteric!
Everyone can be psychic, really being psychic is just tapping into your soul and then connecting soul to soul with a physical person. - Bebe ShelleyBebe and I also chat about:
Her background as the daughter of immigrants from New ZealandHer experiences growing up going to Christian schools and summer campsWhy psychics and astrologers have had a reputation as fortune tellers throughout history (and why a good psychic or astrologer isn’t a fortune teller)Her first and most formative experiences with her psychic gifts and abilities and how they have shaped her (including Spirit leaving a note on the mirror for her in the bathroom)How to not feel afraid of Spirit crossing over to the 3D worldHow to tap into your own psychic gifts through getting quiet and meditatingComing out to the other side after a bout of depression and commitment to healingThe importance of having a guide when studying esoteric modalitiesEveryday ways to cleanse your energy and connect to SpiritHow to embrace a morning and evening routine and stick to itUsing your intuition to connect to what your body needsUsing your love language as a guide to finding the right self care for youUsing your south node as a guide to finding the right self care for youThe importance of eating clean for a psychic mediumWhy rituals don’t need to be perfect or elaborate, they just need to have intentionWhy, as a Scorpio rising and North Node, Bebe finds deep conversations... -
Have you ever interviewed your former boss for a podcast? That’s exactly what I did for this episode!
Salim Catrina is my former boss and current friend, and we took a deep dive into her natal chart during this chat. Salim grew up in the Bay Area and lived most of her adult life in Italy. She loooooooves learning languages, which is what brought her to the world of translation and working with me!
This episode is for you if you’ve ever felt like a late bloomer or like you’re finding your purpose later in life.
Salim opens up about how her family, and partner, and job are great, but she’s still looking for something bigger than those things to light her up.
Salim’s chart is one of the most striking I’ve seen for someone who has traveled extensively and lived abroad - serious Sagittarius energy!
Tune in if you want to laugh along with us and hear what a reading with me might be like!
I feel like the things that you think that will give you, or what the world tells you will give you "purpose" in your life are not exactly it, at least for me. - Salim CatrinaSalim and I also chat about:
Finding balance with your north node and south nodeFighting against fiery energy vs surrendering to it - when is fighting against the fight not working?Relationships as a reflection of parts of yourselfWhat it’s like to live abroad in ItalyAstrology as a language, and how to choose the right interpreter of the stars for you (aka astrologer) based on your style and preferenceInterpreting astrology is not about explaining “the thing” it’s about translating the symbols and geometry into concepts or potential concerns in a way the person understands (without having to learn all about astrology)What it’s like having lots of retrograde planets in your chartFinding your purpose in life after 40, outside your kids, your partner, or your careerLooking to your north node and midheaven in your chart when it comes to finding your purposeHow the midheaven isn’t just about career, but is about your larger calling in lifeWhat having a Capricorn midheaven is like and how it might be frustrating to not have a goal to strive towardBeing a late bloomer and how to know if you’ve “bloomed”Why your natal chart is your soul’s blueprint (and how validating that is!)What it’s like to have mercury retrograde conjunct your midheavenWhat it’s like having your north node square your midheavenWorking with a grand trine in fire, feeling comfortable taking initiative, but sometimes fiery energy may come too easilyWhere to find Salim:

This is my first in-person interview! I travelled all the way to London to visit my BFF Krikor and record in his cavernous flat (the audio’s a smidge more echo-y than you’re used to).
Fun fact: Since being friends, Krikor and I have never lived in the same city. We have travelled around the globe to spend time with each other, most recently in London and Mexico! We dig into how non-traditional this is and how we make it work (memes, lots of memes).
Our convo runs the gamut from our 15-year(!) anniversary, to his family’s connection to astrology, to the Kardashians, to our stupendous astrological compatibility, to those meal replacement drinks Soylent and Huel
(not sure how those snuck in there LOL).
Krikor also shares about how food and cooking has connected him to his heritage and may have become his favorite meditation.
We even played our own version of the newlywed game, BFF style
Tune in if you want to laugh along with us and join our virtual kiki, we’d love to have you!
Having somebody that you could rely on to have an honest and open conversation with, but then also get guidance and support and advice from is something that I can't think of any people in my life that I can do that with, so that I think is super special. - Krikor MugerianKrikor and I also chat about:
Being first-generation AmericanHow we appreciate things like our culture and family as we grow older and wiserLeaning into non-traditional relationshipsHow living so far apart makes our time together more specialHis parents’ connection to astrology (hint: they are very compatible!)How you are not just your sun signWhy using astrology as a point of self-reflection can be more helpful than horoscopesAstrology as a mirror for self-reflectionHow free will plays into our horoscopes - we always have a choiceThe time the internet told us that we were the most compatible people (but that we didn’t need astrology or the internet to tell us that)Kindness and caring as personal valuesOur complementary anxieties and how they balance us outKrikor’s mutable energy and how he adapts to my introverted ways when we’re togetherHim remembering lots of things about when we first met and me remembering zeroHow you can value kindness, but also be a little judgy with your BFFThe two nights we’ve stayed up and partied all night (yes, only two)How Krikor supports my dream of visiting all the bookshopsKindness as a superpower and how often it is perceived as weaknessHow a second or third visit to a place can be better than the firstWhy do we so seek routine in our lives?

My friend Anoush and I came together to talk about astrology and her being a new mom to baby Mia, but the conversation took a surprising turn! We ended up talking about biology, astronomy (and if astrology is a science or not), and philosophy.
As deep as those topics can get, we kept things light by giggling every five minutes because we can’t take life too seriously, right?
While Anoush went through almost all the most major of changes in the past two years (having a baby, getting married, getting a new job), she has navigated it all with grace and a sense of humor.
Anoush has a whopping 6 placements in Leo...but she doesn’t resonate with traditional “Leo” characteristics! We talk through this, as well as the damage that stereotyping by sun sign can do both for others and ourselves.
Tune in if you’ve ever felt like you don’t resonate with a part of your chart and to dispel all those silly astrological stereotypes that we so often can peg ourselves in.
So it's good to know that the reason why I'm constantly changing, it's maybe not a bad thing, but it's more of like what I need to break a cycle. I think that's really cool - Anoush GostanianAnoush and I also chat about:
Is astrology a science?Navigating periods of big life changes (getting married, having babies, starting new jobs, etc.)The dangers of astrological stereotypingShould we look at charts for babies or kids?Why are Scorpio and Leo so often stereotyped?What it’s like when you don’t resonate with a prominent sign in your chartWhat it’s like to have six Leo placements in your chartWhat it’s like to have almost all fixed energy in your chart (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) but also always seeking changeIdentifying the teachers in our lives (even when they’re our kids)The idea that we choose our charts and the lessons that we’re meant to learn in this lifetimeDeciding if you want to move past relationships that aren’t working or put in the energy to work with themHow we are responsible for how we react to any situationHolding grudgesThe life changing and mind blowing experience of becoming a new momUsing astrology to see where you need to break a cycleModern-day philosophy and how it’s represented by Sagittarius and the 9th HouseThe crossover between philosophy and astrologyAstrology as your personal philosophy about yourself and your lifeWhere to find Anoush:

After a difficult bout with covid last year, Tania had to rebuild her physical strength from the ground up (even walking around the block was difficult). But she ALSO had the wisdom to re-evaluate and build her mental and spiritual health up to truly take the best care of herself possible.
Her journey is inspiring, and the ins and outs of how she became so diligent and dedicated to the most important person in her life (herself!) have some amazing takeaways for anyone listening.
She shares how she shifted her perspective when she was at her lowest, how she organized herself to find her purpose, and how she listened to her body and her intuition to help find alignment within herself.
Tune in to feel empowered and to become your biggest cheerleader.

You know it's going to be good for you. And that makes you feel much better, much stronger, so then you feel ready to tackle the hardest part: what's in your mind, what's in your heart.— Tania SibigliaTania and I also chat about:

We’re opening the door to self-care through self-acceptance and understanding...without judgment. Let’s help you find your own divine timing and flow so you know that your higher self and the cosmos are always supporting you!
