Astrobloom Podcast explores the spiritual experience of being human ... the place where earth and sky meet. Hosted by Vanja Banks, this podcast weaves astrology, embodiment, and lived experience into conversations about healing, creativity, relationships, and the rhythms that shape our lives. Through a blend of solo episodes and intimate dialogues with artists, healers, creatives, and change-makers, Astrobloom reflects on what it means to move through cycles of loss and becoming, contraction and growth, confusion and clarity. Astrology is offered as a living language ... not to predict or define, but to help us remember our natural rhythm with the cosmos and our place within it. Episodes explore collective transits alongside deeply human themes: belonging, purpose, desire, grief, courage and the ongoing work of coming home to ourselves. At its heart, Astrobloom is about bridging earth and sky ... honoring both the mystical and the mundane, the cosmic and the embodied ... and reclaiming a way of living that is more intentional, connected, and alive.

    2026 Astrology Forecast: Heart Led Connectedness

    2026 marks the end of long cycles of dissolution and the beginning of a more embodied, heart-led way of living and leading. In this episode, I explore the major astrological shifts shaping 2026, beginning with the Saturn–Neptune transition out of Pisces and into Aries; a rare reset that asks us to move from spiritual retreat into courageous, embodied initiation. This is also a year that calls us back into community, connection, and local networks, as Pluto continues its journey through Aquarius and Uranus moves into Gemini. Power is no longer meant to live in systems alone ... it returns to people who are willing to show up authentically and lead from within. In this episode, we explore: The completion of long Pisces-era cycles and the beginning of new Aries initiationsWhy clarity in 2026 comes through action, not endless processingHeart-led leadership and Leo themes of courage, creativity, and visibilityCommunity, connection, and the return of human-scale livingKey timing windows of 2026: February, July, and October–November Links mentioned in this episode: Join the Earth & Sky community waitlist Mini 2026 Forecast Readings (limited availability) Sign up for the Astrobloom Newsletter & Receive a Free Ritual Guide Hosted on Acast.

    Receiving as a Radical Act of Self-Worth with Elysia Skye

    This week’s episode drops right into the heart of the current astrology: Venus completing her journey through Scorpio, opposing Uranus in Taurus as they illuminate everything we believe we’re worthy of receiving. I’m joined by Elysia Skye, a Taurus Moon woman and the brilliant creator behind The Brilliance Method — a speaker, consultant, and podcast host whose work centers on intuitive leadership, wealth mindset, and purpose. We explore: • The energetics of self-worth + the 2nd house • Money as renewable energy • Following the breadcrumbs that lead you to purpose • The dance between fear vs love when making decisions • The feminine art of receiving • The masculine role in holding structure, clarity & direction • Vulnerability as a path to intimacy & abundance (Scorpio medicine) • Why you must let yourself be loved to learn to love yourself • The Venus–Mars polarity and co-creation • Surrender as the portal to your soul’s actual timeline I also share a live reading of Elysia’s natal chart, focusing on her second house and how her placements guide her leadership and purpose. This episode is the exact frequency many of us are integrating right now ... especially if your self-worth, money stories, purpose, or relationships have been up for review.

    Water Alchemy Meditation for Scorpio New Moon

    A water-alchemy ritual for the New Moon in Scorpio on November 19/20, 2025 but can be done anytime! This is a portal of emotional renewal, depth, and rebirth. With the Grand Water Trine flowing through this lunation, emotions move more freely, intuition sharpens, and the waters of your inner world become easier to access and cleanse. This meditation guides you inward through sensation: noticing how your body feels, how old certain emotions feel, and where you’re still carrying versions of yourself you’ve already outgrown. As you submerge, soften, and slow down, the element of water becomes an alchemist ... dissolving what’s heavy, cleansing what’s stagnant, and helping you return to the present moment with more truth, more intimacy, and more of you. This practice can be done anytime in a bath or any natural body of water. A ritual for releasing the old self, reclaiming emotional safety, and beginning again under this Scorpio New Moon and the healing currents of this Water Trine. Hosted on Acast.
