    48. Pluto & Soul Evolution

    Pluto & Soul Evolution Traditional Vedic Astrology typically doesn't look at the influence and role of Pluto on our soul evolution, as the planet wasn't technically discovered until the 1930s. However, understanding the placements of Pluto in our Vedic (or Sidereal) astrology charts enables an insight into some of our karmic lessons, and therefore the possibilities for soul evolution. So, in this episode, Tarra shines a light on Pluto, how it might play out in our astrological charts, and how we can ultimately use these insights for the purpose of soul evolution. In This Episode: A background on Pluto: its discovery and later its re-categorisation (as a dwarf planet), its orbit, and how it's considered Mars's higher octave planet The current transits: where Pluto is currently (according to both Western Astrology and Vedic Astrology), what this means from an energetic perspective for the collective, and what we can learn Evolutionary Astrology for personal growth and evolution, and how Tarra is fusing Evolutionary with Vedic to uncover past-life dynamics and soul purpose Tarra's thoughts on reincarnation, soul evolution and Moksha - how the soul is eternal while the physical body is only temporary on our journey back to Source Pluto and our karmic journey: what it can show about where we left off and what it teaches us about the lessons and challenges we may experience in this lifetime or incarnation Tarra's personal experience with gaining insight and conscious awareness from her Pluto placement and its themes, lessons and opportunities Working with the placements of Pluto as a tool for deep inner healing and shadow work for transformation and final liberation More...

Inna is an internationally recognised healer, teacher, professional speaker, author, and pioneer in the field of energy medicine and human consciousness. By intuitive means, she can ‘see’ illness and blocks in a person’s body.

In This Episode: Inna's teenage years and health challenges - including back pain, psoriasis, and digestive problems - and how she overcame these issues to ultimately restore her well-being Understanding and focusing on the significance of the "why" behind your desire for well-being, and not just the "how" Ancestral connection, unresolved experiences, and the impact on our own well-being The importance of shifting from a victim mindset to embracing a more empowering attitude when it comes to health and healing Approaching pain and discomfort with curiosity, allowing ourselves to uncover valuable insights and discoveries about who we truly are The importance of embracing the awareness that you are a unique being with your own distinct path Multiple Earth lives, and why Inna believes it’s important not to get too caught up in past lives The way emotions manifest in various parts of our bodies, and how we can explore, and effectively manage and transform, these emotions Finally, the value in embracing kindness as a starting point on any healing journey More...

    45. Overcoming Perfectionism

    Overcoming Perfectionism Perfectionism can be defined as the tendency to set high, unrelenting standards of and for ourselves, in all areas of our lives. It's the constant pursuit of 'perfect' - a subjective concept and so an unattainable, never-ending pursuit - often leaving us feeling frustrated, anxious, exhausted, burnt out, and with a sense of compromised self-worth. So, in this episode, Emily (who refers to herself as a 'recovering perfectionist') speaks on how we can work to overcome perfectionism - or at least start to work with it to enjoy its gifts, and embrace ourselves as perfectly imperfect. In This Episode: The origins of perfectionism from a psychological perspective Schemas and the ego, and how both ultimately work to protect us The 'Unrelenting Standards' schema (or life trap): its characteristics, origins, and how it so often plays out How perfectionism manifests in the physical body, and how it can impact our health behaviours The gifts and benefits of this schema Adaptive vs. maladaptive perfectionism, and adaptive vs. maladaptive coping strategies Emily's thoughts on, and practical tools for, overcoming perfectionism and reaching a healthier level of balance Plus, as always, we start the episode with a life update from the both of us - our wins, challenges and obsessions from the past couple of weeks.

    44. Eclipse Magic

    Eclipse Magic: A Vedic Perspective Eclipses are considered significant celestial events that bring change and transform time. The period between two eclipses is known as the 'eclipse season', and it is a sensitive time lasting for about 15 days. Today's episode lands mid-eclipse season, between the total solar eclipse on the 20th of April 2023 and the upcoming lunar eclipse later this week (5th/6th of May 2023). So, in this episode, Tarra speaks on the significance of eclipses, and how to work with their energy and navigate the change and challenges they bring. In This Episode: The transformational time between two eclipses Why it is recommended to avoid making major decisions or starting new projects during this time How eclipses act as a catalyst for change, shifts, and the unexpected Eclipses as a trigger for important turning points in your life; something ends while something new begins How eclipses can help you to do things you never thought you could The Libra energy of the Lunar Eclipse, and how this may impact the world — and you personally Vedic astrological remedies for the eclipse period Plus, as always, we start the episode with a life update from both of us - our wins, challenges and obsessions from the past couple of weeks.
