    Venus Retrograde in Libra & Scorpio with Horoscopes

    Venus goes retrograde only about every 18 months, making this a powerful time to slow down and revisit the Venusian themes in our lives: love, relationships, beauty, money, pleasure, values, and what we truly desire. In this episode, we’re diving into the upcoming Venus retrograde in Scorpio and Libra, including the pre- and post-shadow periods and what these two very different signs bring to the retrograde story. We talk about revisiting old relationships and connections, renegotiating relationship dynamics, reciprocity and boundaries, changing values, beauty and aesthetics, money, creativity, and the possibility of old people or situations resurfacing. We also explore why Venus retrograde can bring deeper conversations into our relationships and why that doesn’t necessarily mean a breakup. Sometimes it creates the space to renegotiate, recommit, and grow together. Then we bring in the Human Design perspective, looking at Venus retrograding through four Spleenic gates and the fears they can bring to the surface. We talk about intuition, awareness, and using Strategy and Authority when fear comes up. Plus, we break down what Venus retrograde may bring up for each rising sign, from relationships and money to career, family, creativity, spirituality, and identity. If you’re moving through this Venus retrograde wondering what it means for your relationships, your values, or your life direction, this episode is an invitation to slow down, pay attention, and let the themes reveal themselves.

    Lindsay, Hayden, Gloria & Dolly: A Cultural Conversation on Womanhood, Feminism, Motherhood & Identity

    What happens when the astrology and Human Design charts of women in the headlines seem to mirror the bigger themes playing out in our culture? In this episode of Stellar Sisters, we take a look at the charts of Lindsay Clancy, Hayden Panettiere, Gloria Steinem, and Dolly Parton and discover some fascinating connections between their individual stories and the collective astrology unfolding right now. From postpartum mental health and motherhood to feminism, relationships, identity, autonomy, and the question of who women are “allowed” to be, these four very different women bring us into a much bigger conversation about womanhood. We explore the striking Aries and Leo themes showing up in several of their charts, the Human Design channels that seem to echo their unique gifts and life stories, and the upcoming Venus retrograde in Libra and Scorpio. Venus asks us to revisit our values, relationships, and the ways we connect with one another. While its opposition to Saturn in Aries brings up the tension between partnership and independence, connection and autonomy. What are we being asked to reconsider about women, motherhood, identity, relationships, and self-expression and why are these themes so loud right now? And consider this your preview for what’s coming next: our deep dive into Venus retrograde.

    Eclipse Season: Authenticity, Surrender & the New Paradigm

    In this episode of Stellar Sisters, we explore the final Pisces eclipse of this cycle and the powerful contrast between the Leo solar eclipse and Pisces lunar eclipse. While the Leo eclipse brought a more mental, logical energy through Human Design's Gate 4 in the Ajna, this Pisces eclipse lights up Gate 55 in the Solar Plexus and Gate 59 in the Sacral, bringing us deep into our emotions, intuition, bodies, relationships, and authentic desires. We talk about surrender, emotional release, compassion without self-abandonment, and learning to notice what your body is telling you. How does a person feel in your body? How does a dream feel? How does the food you're eating feel? What actually lights you up? And then we zoom out to the bigger picture: the New Paradigm and the transition from the Cross of Planning to the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix in Human Design. With Gates 55 and 59 highlighted by this eclipse, we're getting a fascinating preview of the energy we're moving toward. One that emphasizes individual authenticity, self-trust, and discovering what is truly aligned for each of us. We also dive into Pluto in Aquarius, the shift from Earth to Air, AI and technology, changing work structures, generational differences, social media, and what it might mean to live through such a profound moment of collective change. The invitation for this eclipse? Turn inward. Feel. Listen to your body. And ask yourself: Who am I when I'm no longer performing for anyone else? Mentioned in This Episode: Our Leo Horoscopes episode Our Pisces Horoscopes episode Sydney's sister Lucy and her custom painted party banner business, The Brushed Occasion.
