First and foremost, I want to thank all of you for listening and for writing a review. In this episode, I re-introduce myself and explain how I use astrology as a liberatory tool. I believe we are in a critical time right now when we all collectively feel a sense of urgency to know who we are and be in alignment with our purpose. I hope to be your monthly guide to the cosmos and translator of the stars. We begin this episode by recapping June and Gemini Season. We then do a little forecasting for the month of July continuing with Cancer Season, Saturn + Neptune Retrogrades in Pisces, the 2nd full moon in Capricorn, and Leo Season! I'm an astrologer who comes from an anti-oppression and decolonial lens so if politics and world events is not your thing I would find another astrologer who is more aligned. I'm really excited to bring in fixed stars into the monthly forecasts. Happy solar return to the Cancer and Leo babies!

Are you going through a midlife crisis or are you going through your astrological middle-age transits? This episode is in collaboration with Dr Nicole Truesdell, the host of the Abolitionist Dreamscapes podcast. We share our experiences of these midlife transits as two 40 something women of color going through the thick of it. Your midlife years (36-45) can be some of the most triggering yet transformational times of your life if you surrender to the journey. During these midlife years, the outer planets which are generational planets, activate you to look deeper into yourself and to break free of the status quo. This begs the question, is it only the youth that will save us or awakened mid-lifers as well?

In this episode, we recap the news stories that happened during May which were overall sweet except for the ongoing genocide that’s happening in Palestine right now. FREE PALESTINE! FREE CONGO! FREE SUDAN! I talk about what to expect with Jupiter in the sign of Gemini and the mutable squares between Gemini and Pisces this month. The biggest astro moment is the Solstice. Happy solar return to the Gemini and Cancer babies.

In this episode, we recap the news stories that happened during April including my personal story of the April 8th eclipse. I went on a road trip to the path of totality! May is a month of integration after a month that had many conjunctions like the Jupiter + Uranus and Mars + Saturn. These cycles were simultaneous endings and the beginnings of new cycles. The biggest event happening this month is Jupiter entering the sign of Gemini and we have two sweet lunations. Happy solar return to the Taurus and Gemini babies!

In this episode, we do a little recap of what transpired during February and March that stood out in the cultural zeitgeist that lined up with the astrological transits. Then we go over what to expect in April. April is a big month of major activations! There is a total solar eclipse on April 8th that will be visible (with protective eyewear) in parts of the USA. Also, there will be a conjunction between Jupiter and Uranus in the sign of Taurus on April 20th. Happy solar return to all of you April Aries and Tauruses out there!
