    035: Your Birth Chart Holds the Answers: Astrology for Self-Discovery & Relationships with Jalisa Danielle

    In this episode, host Jillian sits down with Jalisa Danielle, professional astrologer, former public school educator of 15 years, and a passionate advocate for using astrology as a tool for radical self-understanding. Jalisa brings a refreshingly grounded, no-fluff approach to astrology — blending deep chart knowledge with real-world observation, humor, and the kind of wisdom that only comes from actually studying thousands of people. What starts as a conversation about the big three basics quickly expands into a rich exploration of progressions, Mercury compatibility, parenting through astrology, generational energy, the school system, and why knowing your chart isn't just spiritual — it's deeply practical. Jillian even gets a mini live reading of her own chart and her son's, making this episode both educational and deeply personal. 💫 what you’ll hear in this episode: What the "big three" are and why they're the best starting point in astrology Solar progressions: how your personality evolves and shifts every few decades based on your birth degree The rising sign as your outward personality and social mask How Mercury signs govern communication style — and why some conversations just don't click Using astrology to understand your children, including moon signs and the parent-child energy dynamic Modalities in astrology: cardinal, fixed, and mutable signs and how they square each other Aquarius energy: independence, anti-authority, and the gift of calm in chaos Gemini energy: curiosity, anxiety, multi-passionate living, and the gift of connection Why Gen Z is Sagittarius energy — and what that means for the school system The overlap between astrology, human design, numerology, and epigenetics Collaboration over gatekeeping: how sharing and tagging can change your business The stars didn't make you — they simply reflected what was already true. Your chart is not a box to be put in or a fate to be resigned to. It's a mirror. So if something Jaleesa shared today felt uncomfortably accurate, sit with that. Ask yourself: Where in my life have I been dismissing parts of myself that my chart has been pointing to all along? And what would it feel like to finally stop fighting who I already am?
