dear friend,
If youâre new to my Substack, welcome! If you were already subscribed to my podcast, youâll now also receive written bi-weekly astro-energy updates, timed around the New and Full Moons. (Basically, what I used to send to my newsletter list via Squarespace - those two entities are merging.)
Paid subscribers receive my New and Full Moon transmissions. These bi-weekly, 45-minute-ish recordings illuminate the current and upcoming astro-influences, what theyâre asking of you, and how you can best work with them.
Founding subscribers are also welcome to join me at a quarterly livestream, where you can connect with our amazing community, ask your astro-questions, and share whatâs showing up in your world. The first livestream will be Saturday, September 23rd.
The Pisces Full Moon transmission is a gift, so if youâre not familiar with my work, you can check it out. Enjoy, and if you feel so inspired, you can upgrade to a paid subscription.
love, Emily

The Leo New Moon that started this lunar cycle (August 16th) was a call to radically own your creative power. Now the Pisces Full Moon, the culmination of the cycle, reveals the unconscious blocks that get in your way.
What is ready to be healed, released, surrendered or alchemized so you can become the creator god/goddess you were born to be?
This will be the third of four consecutive Super Full Moons. Just as the Moon will appear larger and brighter than usual, FEELINGS may also be super-sized.
Thereâs a lot to grieve, process, digest and integrate, and itâs all likely to come up around this lunation. This is a time to retreat, to allow time and space for simply BEING, feeling and resting.
The veil is thin at this Full Moon and support and guidance are available by connecting with the dreamtime, your infinite soul self, invisible allies and the Great Mystery.
I go into all the Virgoan details in the 53-minute recording.
If you have some astro-techno skills, you can get more insight into what this Full Moon means for YOU. Find the house in your birth chart that contains 7° Pisces. The areas of life signified by this house are where events are coming to fruition, culmination or completion and where youâre invited to:
* reconnect with your spiritual source and receive an infusion of divine love;
* open to guidance from your dreams, intuition and imagination;
* surrender having to have all the answers or the perfect plan and trust the mysterious flow of life;
* let go of, grieve and dissolve the past;
* recognize and release your inner Victim;
* and allow for more acceptance, compassion and forgiveness.
The card I picked for this Full Moon, from The Mayan Oracle by Ariel Spilsbury and Michael Bryner, was Imix.
Qualities: source of life, divine nurturance and support, primordial Mother, undivided primal waters, primal trust and nourishment, receptivity, self-love
Shadow Wisdom: issues of deep, primal trust and survival, lack of self-love, feeling unsupported by divine nurturance or unworthy to receive, betrayal, abandonment
Shadow Transformation: Surrender and trust in the larger pattern to provide what you need. Open to receive. Communicate your feelings, desires and dreams.
Affirmation: âI trust unconditionally the source of divine nurturance.â
âImix sounds a call in your life to go beneath the surface, to plumb your own primal depths. Go to the abundant wellspring of the life force to find the nourishment for which you yearn. In trust and receptiveness is found the source of movement. From the primordial waters of unity flows the spiral of eternal emergence. Allow others to give fully to you, for in that receptivity the circuit of love is completed.
âThe entire universe is made up of love. Give and receive. If you are not fully receiving the gifts offered by the universe, you can short-circuit your connection with the natural spirals of growth. Give freely and unconditionally without attachment to how your gift is received. Dip into the deep well of self and fill your cup with sweet waters. Offer this gift unconditionally. Trust in the situation at hand.
âPrimal trust means making choices moment by moment, with no guarantees. It means not trying to control the outcomes in your life. Trust your steering mechanism of heart-knowing. Trust the transformational processes that are at work in your evolution.
âCall on Imix, the source of life, primal waters of creation, the root source, the primordial Mother, to nourish and care for you. In truly accepting this reservoir of sustenance, you will have unlimited resources to care for others as well as yourself. Remember that you are always embraced in the arms of the Divine, no matter what the exterior circumstances of your process or situation.â - Ariel Spilsbury

I was inspired to record a transmission detailing this potent cosmic moment. If you want a visual, you can find the last quarter Moon chart here (the PDF will automatically download when you click the link).
The astro-energies this week are EXTREME. Todayâs last quarter Moon in Sagittarius opposes Mars and squares Neptune, stirring up potential confusion, distraction, overwhelm and exhaustion.
The higher potential? Weâre being called to release whatâs distracting us, whatâs sucking our vital life force, whatâs no longer in alignment with our deeper soul selves - and to listen to and honor our intuitive knowing, our longings, our dreams for a more beautiful future.
Tomorrow Mars will (at last!) emerge from its retrograde shadow, ending its 6-month retro cycle (can I get an amen??). Next weekâs Spring Equinox and Aries new moon will be major catalysts for acting on the insights and wisdom weâve gained over the past six months, and launching powerful new life directions.
If you missed my webinar all about Mars retrograde - where I go into how you can work effectively with Mars-Neptune, and much more - you can find the replay here.
I also want to offer some writing prompts for journaling and reflection, to help you deepen into and uncover the gifts of this time. These prompts are from a Mars retro writing retreat I led with my brilliant writer friend Jen Violi last December. (FYI, Jen and I are offering another mini-retreat combining astro, writing & ritual on April 1st - Fire Words.)
* How are grief, sorrow, and surrender part of this Mars Retro journey for you? What gifts might be washing ashore for you from the ocean of sorrow? What might you need to release into the outgoing tide?
* Write a love letter to yourself from Mars or Neptune. Let yourself write in the voice of one of these wise planet ancestors. What do they want you to know? You might start with âDear ____, I have something to tell youâŠâ
* In what ways are you already tending your inner fire/ feeding your desires? What might you add to your repertoire?
* Where or what or who is the source of your life force? What are 3 -5 possible practices you might explore to reconnect with source in the coming week?
I also want to let you know that the new incarnation of Emilyâs Astro-Verse is about to start! I consider this group to be my âinner circleâ of astro-friends.
When you sign up for the 6-month Astro-Verse, youâll receive:
* All of my new and full moon recordings (12 total)
* An exclusive monthly group livestream on Zoom, where you can ask your astro-questions and share how the wild energies are showing up in your world
* A discounted rate on personal readings
* And the opportunity to share your offerings with our amazing community
Weâll start with the Aries new moon, which Iâm planning to send out this week! Everyone is welcome, and the group is offered on a sliding scale. Join the Astro-Verse
And finally, save the date for a special, FREE event next Monday: The Soul of the Equinox - A Visual & Astrological Exploration of the New Season. Iâm teaming up with my friend Rita Roberts, an intuitive artist who will channel the Equinox energies and do a live drawing while I discuss what I see in the Equinox chart. Weâll meet at 2pm Pacific/5pm Eastern for about an hour on March 20th No need to sign up - Iâll send out the Zoom info before we meet. You can read all about it on my blog.
Wishing you ease, support and GRACE as you surf the tides of this wild and watery week!

And now for something differentâŠ
While the Embodied Aquarian Age podcast generally focuses on interviews looking at the bigger picture of where weâre at and WTF to do about it, today Iâm interrupting the regularly scheduled program.
I want to share a little insight into the new season â launched by Thursdayâs Equinox â and the new lunar cycle that starts with Sundayâs Libra New Moon. The audio is a 20-minute excerpt from my 53-minute new moon recording.
The occasion? Iâm launching a new 6-month program â Emilyâs Astro-Verse: An Immersion in Cosmic Co-Creation. (If youâre signed up for my non-Substack newsletter, youâve already heard the news!)
For every new and full moon, I create a 45-minute-ish recording, which includes in-depth astro-navigational guidance for the current planetary influences.
I do not tell you âwhatâs going to happenâ â because â who knows? I believe the future is fluid and how the energies play out depends on us â our level of awareness, presence, courage and willingness to show up and engage in LIFE.
Instead, my focus is on how YOU can best work with the available planetary energies for growth, healing and success. I highlight both the higher and shadow/distorted potentials of planetary alignments, always aiming to make the information accessible and practical.
I make these bi-weekly moon transmissions available individually, offered âin the giftâ (i.e., by donation â pay what you want).
Members of the Astro-Verse automagically receive ALL my new and full moon recordings, and are also invited to join me in a monthly livestream on Zoom, where they can ask their astro-questions, connect with our amazing community, and share how the cosmic forces are showing up in their own lives.
Added perks to participating in the Astro-Verse include a discounted rate on personal astrology readings, and the opportunity for members to share their offerings (services, classes, productsâŠ) with the group.
Everyone is welcome to join, regardless of your level of astro-know-how (yes, including beginners!).
Check out the audio, and if it resonates, consider jumping into Emilyâs Astro-Verse. (Youâll immediately receive the entire Libra New Moon recording.) The sliding-scale rate starts at $144. I consider this group my âinner circleâ of astro-friends, and feel so much gratitude for the support and community during these wild times.
with love, Emily
