Retrograde season is when planets appear to move backward in the sky, asking you to reflect, revise, and revisit what is no longer working. With Mercury and Venus retrograde alongside Saturn and Uranus this fall, that review is happening in your communication, your relationships, your boundaries, and the systems running the world around you. If it feels like everything is breaking at once, you are not imagining it. And if you have been told to just stay positive through it, you are missing half the picture. On this episode of The Just Jana Show, Jana Stern, psychic, astrologer, and spiritual activator, breaks down what each planet represents and why Pluto in Aquarius is shaking up governments, courts, and anyone born around 1985 living through their Pluto square Pluto. Then she gets personal. With a Uranus complex in her chart and a Pisces sun with a Gemini moon, Jana makes the case for duality: you can feel deep gratitude and deep grief at the same time, and there is no love and light without a shadow side. She also shares why, after 15 years of astrology, kundalini, Kabbalah, and human design, she is dropping the healer title. You heal yourself. She is just Jana. In this episode, you'll learn: What retrograde season really means, and why Jana Stern says Mercury and Venus retrograde ask you to reflect, revise, and revisit instead of bracing for disaster. What each planet means in your birth chart, from Mercury's communication and Venus's love to Saturn's boundaries, Uranus's sudden shakeups, Neptune's dreams, and Pluto's collective karma. Why Pluto in Aquarius is reshaping governments and systems worldwide, and what the Pluto square Pluto transit feels like for people born around 1985. How retrograde season shows up in the collective, from court cases questioning the patriarchy to the changing of the guard in countries around the world. What a Uranus complex in your birth chart means, and why Jana says bringing light to the world sometimes looks like lightning that disrupts before it illuminates. Why spiritual duality matters more than staying positive, and how you can hold gratitude and grief, healing and suffering, at the same time without choosing one. Why Jana Stern is dropping the healer title after 15 years of astrology, kundalini, Kabbalah, and human design, and why she believes you heal yourself.
