#299 - Weekly Energy Update for December 10, 2023: New Moon in Sagittarius

The New Moon on Tuesday is the last new moon of 2023 and is full of positive vibes that help us close out the year on a good note and give us an extra dose of optimism about next year.  
This New Moon is in Sagittarius. Sagittarius is a joyful and enthusiastic sign that has a lovely way of helping us see the big picture and all of life's possibilities. This new moon is a time to look to the future and ask yourself, "What’s the best that could happen?" This is not a Moon to wonder if your intentions will manifest. It’s a Moon to wonder when.
The final numerology portal of the year, 12/12, also coincides with the new moon. Every year on December 12, an energetic portal opens, filling us with confidence and self-determination. Because the 12/12 portal falls on the new moon this year, its power will be at its highest. If you've been looking for the perfect time to write out your New Year's intentions, 12/12 at 12:12 is your chance.
Less than 24 hours after the new moon, Mercury goes retrograde for the rest of the year. Mercury Retrograde always gets a bad rap. True, it can cause problems with technology, travel, and communication, but this year it allows us to get our lives in order before the new year. We tie up loose ends and clear out anything that doesn't align with our 2024 intentions. 
Jupiter, the ruler of this moon, is also retrograde now. With both Mercury and Jupiter retrograde, this is the perfect time to take a deep look back into 2023. Take some time to reflect on how much you've grown this year.
Jupiter retrograde ends on New Year’s Eve, and Mercury retrograde ends on New Year's Day. We can use the next 3 weeks, until they go direct, to create our plan and get ready to start fresh at the beginning of the year.

#298 - Weekly Energy Update for December 3, 2023: Venus in Scorpio & Neptune Direct

December is a busy month as we get ready for the upcoming year. You might have already been thinking about next year and may even want to start making your New Year’s resolutions ahead of next week's New Moon. This is the week to have fun and begin daydreaming about the future.
Let’s break down the energy this week, beginning Monday when Venus moves into Scorpio. Venus, the planet of love and harmony,  in Scorpio, is a very passionate place, and we can expect to see an increase in intimacy. Love takes center stage for the month ahead when Venus is in Scorpio.
Neptune has been retrograde since June 30th and finally becomes direct on Wednesday. When Neptune goes direct, a fog lifts, and we start planning how to turn our dreams into reality next year. We want to use our dreams as a roadmap for what we want to create in 2024.
Next weekend is going to be amazing because the two luckiest planets in the sky, Venus and Jupiter, will be positioned opposite each other on Saturday! Jupiter is all about growth, expansion, and abundance, while Venus is all about love, beauty, and harmony. Jupiter magnifies whatever it comes into contact with, and when it is in opposite Venus, it intensifies happiness, optimism, and positivity. 
Overall this week is great for getting ready for next year. Start to make some plans for 2024. If there’s anything you want to get finished this month, I suggest doing it this week before Mercury goes Retrograde the following week. This is a week to celebrate and enjoy all the wonderful things in life. Make the most of it, go out with friends, and have fun!

#297 - Weekly Energy Update for November 26, 2023: Full Moon in Gemini

On Monday, with the last Full Moon of Fall, we have the chance to release and let go of anything that we don't want to carry into 2024. It's time to start thinking about what you want to be free of in the upcoming year so we can move through 2024 with greater ease, grace, and alignment.
Full moons are about completion and endings, and as this moon transitions us into the colder months, we want to let go of things that don't serve a positive purpose in our lives as we slow down, turn inward, and prepare for next year.
This full moon is in Gemini. The Gemini twins represent the duality of our human side and our soul side. Geminis are funny, outgoing, curious, and often the life of the party.
Mercury, the planet that rules Gemini, is known for its excellent social skills, making the Gemini Full Moon a fantastic time to party, have fun, and spend time with friends.
A lot is happening under this Full Moon. It may be hectic and even a little disorganized. Mars is in the mix and so is Saturn, plus the goddess, Lilith is active too. All of this energy combined gives this Full Moon a fiery edge. Both Mars and Lilith are very strong forces that can charge us up and create some tension. We may find ourselves feeling a little irritable or frustrated.
This full moon in Gemini helps us balance all the releasing we’re doing before winter with some fun, social activities. Adding the lightness of fun and getting together with others makes it easier to navigate through any tense energies from the Full Moon.
December arrives on Friday. December is a 1 universal month in numerology. The number 1 signifies the birth of something new. A Universal Month 1 carries the energy of new beginnings and starts a new cycle of independence and leadership. 
December invites us to take charge of our lives. This full moon is our opportunity to start preparing. Use this full moon to let go of everything that doesn’t fit into your vision of your ideal life.

#296 - Weekly Energy Update for November 19, 2023 - Sagittarius Season

It’s time to finish out this year and start preparing for 2024. We want to start preparing now because next year is an 8 universal year in numerology. An 8-year is an accelerator with a lot happening.  An 8-year starts the three-year push time of finishing up the 9-year cycle we’re in and ushering in a new one in 2026.
Ask yourself what you need to be fully prepared for next year. Do you need some downtime? Do you need to get your finances in order? Is it time to organize your home or business? Should health be your primary concern? Whatever it is, now is the moment to get started.
And as we enter Sagittarius season on Wednesday, the 22nd, we get help with this. Our energy shifts from the intense Scorpio season to the joyous and generous Sagittarius season.  Sagittarius season carries fresh, liberating energy that’s clearing the path for new beginnings.
Consider Sagittarius season as your final opportunity to tie up any loose ends and give your life a deep cleaning for the winter.
Mars, the planet of action and energy, enters Sagittarius this week on Black Friday. Mars transiting anywhere on Black Friday is very interesting. Black Friday battles are not out of the question; at the absolute least, there will be a lot of yelling and anger. If you're out and about, keep calm and resist the need to act out your rage.
Additionally, Saturn will make a difficult 90-degree square with the Sun and Mars on Saturday. This square is full of tension and it might lead to some fights at the dinner table. Next weekend is bookended by another stressful event with the full moon in drama queen Gemini on Monday, November 27. 
Knowing that the Thanksgiving weekend has some intense energy, you may want to adjust your plans, perhaps by shopping online. You also shouldn't feel obligated to spend Thanksgiving with people you don’t want to.
If you’re already questioning whether you want to spend time with someone, don’t do it. This energy is going to amplify any typical dysfunction. This is dysfunction on steroids energy. Instead, set your boundaries and do what's for your highest good.
On the other hand, if you love your people, this is an excellent weekend to spend together. There’s an abundance of lovely Sagittarius energy with the Sun, Mercury, and Mars amplifying it. 
Sagittarius is mutable energy, it can go either way. It is up to us how we respond to the energy. If you are positive and balanced this will be an outstanding Thanksgiving weekend. If you’re out of balance, the planet's placement will exacerbate any imbalance you may already have. 
Mars's entry into Sagittarius helps us feel that everything is possible. The best way to grease the wheels for the future is with gratitude. Start a daily gratitude practice if you don't already have one. Amp up your daily practice if you have one. Let's go into the new year fired up. And gratitude helps us do just that.

#295 - Weekly Energy Update for November 12, 2023: New Moon in Scorpio

This new moon in Scorpio is the first New Moon after Eclipse season. It’s the first time since 2021 that a New Moon in Scorpio isn't an eclipse. This would normally be a welcomed break, yet the energy is still pretty intense.
We know that Scorpio season is intense, and it will last for another week and a half. In addition, the sun has been very active lately.  There have been solar flares and geomagnetic storms that have shaken everything up. And now the New Moon in Scorpio is adding to this energy!
Scorpio is an insightful and perceptive sign that can see right through all the BS. Scorpio is a master of digging up and revealing the truth. Scorpio brings the unconscious to the surface and insists that we look within and be honest with ourselves to let go and move on.
This new moon is opposite Uranus and is going to bring sudden and abrupt changes to our lives. We’re talking about shakeups, breakups, and breakdowns. These events may not be pleasant, but they ultimately lead us to the road that is meant for us by making us confront realities we have been avoiding.
Additionally, there is a Mars Cazimi on Thursday, the 17th. A Mars Cazimi is an exact conjunction between the Sun and Mars. Mars Cazimis occur every two years but we haven’t had one in Scorpio for thirty-two years. Planets enter a new cycle when they join the Sun.  We can think of this Cazimi as an opportunity to make a fresh start.
This is not a comfortable new moon. Yes, new beginnings are on the horizon, but we need to let go and move through some discomfort first. To clear away what holds us back we have to know what’s kept us stuck. And to help us with that clarity are the new moon, Scorpio, Mars, Saturn, and even the solar flares.
But aren’t you ready to move on to the next, better iteration of yourself? Aren’t you ready to just rip off the Band-Aid and get on with it? This New Moon is part of that process.

#294 - Weekly Energy Update for November 5, 2023: 11/11 Energy Forecast

November begins in the middle of Scorpio season. Scorpio season is known for its intense vibes. This year, the action-oriented planet Mars spends most of the month in Scorpio. Doubling down on the intensity, but also doubling down on determination and focus. This is the energy we’ve been waiting for to move forward.
Saturn turned direct yesterday. For the past five months, Saturn, the planet of discipline, responsibility, and structure, has been retrograde. When it was retrograde, it felt as though the teacher had left the classroom and we were left without structure and discipline. Now that it's direct, it's time to get back to work and focus on obligations that have been on the back burner since June.
On Wednesday the 8th, romantic Venus enters its home sign of Libra, sprinkling its lovely harmonious magic over relationships, intimacy, and balance. Everyone's love life is getting a boost!
This week ends on 11/11. There is spiritual significance to November 11. It falls in the middle of Scorpio season, a sign of rebirth and transformation, and the date itself also represents transformation.
The number 11 is considered a master number and represents good luck in numerology. The energy is amplified on the 11th when the number 11 is repeated, which makes it a fortunate day of powerful transformation.
We're reminded that we are on the right path whenever we see the number 1111 in any form.  Our thoughts and intentions are powerful and when this number appears, we're able to manifest our desires into reality. This is a powerful day to visualize and manifest.
 
And for the cherry on top of this year’s 11/11? The moon and Mars align forming a Finger of God with Venus and Pluto. This is a rare arrangement of the planets that brings fated and destined events. 11/11 has fated moments in relationships written all over it because all the planets involved are quite dramatic, sexual, and emotional.
 
Just allow the positive energy on 11/11 to permeate your day. Allow yourself to feel lucky.  Buy a lotto ticket. Take a chance on yourself.  This is a fated day so pay attention to the people you meet and things that happen that day. It’s also a powerful day to set intentions. Put your intentions on paper. Practice visualizing your intentions as if they’ve already come true. And simply enjoy a fantastic day!

#293 - Weekly Energy Update for October 29, 2023: Extended Edition featuring the Lunar Eclipse & November Numerology

This week's podcast is extra-long to cover the Lunar Eclipse, November Numerology, Saturn moving direct, Halloween, Samhain, and Day of the Dead. 
Let's start with yesterday's lunar eclipse and full moon. Lunar eclipses help us complete a journey and shift the course of our lives in some way. This lunar eclipse brings a strong energy of closure to the last two years because it’s the end of the Taurus-Scorpio eclipse cycle we’ve been in for two years.
This moon eclipse is here to help us progress. It's a cosmic push that takes you out of stagnated energy and old patterns. We want to consciously purge the old.
This eclipse represents our opportunity to transform and shift old patterns into new ones. All you have to do is let go. Not because of some important event, or someone is pressuring you, or you feel you have no choice. But just because you choose to.
Because this lunar eclipse and full moon are in Taurus, they are gentler and less intense than some other eclipses.
Taurus is a sign of stability and steadiness. When the world throws us a curveball, Taurus helps restore our inner peace. Taurus is the energy we want when life feels overwhelming. Taurus helps us connect to nature.
Then comes Halloween, just a few days after the dramatic eclipse. Halloween is rooted in the Celtic festival of Samhain. Samhain and Halloween fall at the midpoint between the autumn equinox and the winter solstice. At a time when nature is undergoing significant transformations, and so are we!
In numerology, November is a 9 Universal Month. The number nine represents completion, transition, and spiritual growth. It's time to finish up loose ends and get ready for new beginnings.
It's normal to feel the need to finish projects, end relationships, or bring closure to things we're done with during a 9 Universal Month. As we release, there's room for new things to enter. We’re laying the groundwork for new beginnings that will come.
Saturn going direct is the first transit in November.  Saturn is a slow energy. Even though the lunar eclipse concluded a two-year cycle, and November is a nine-month wrapping up this year's cycle, we are not racing toward the new thing. We need patience right now.
Think of November as a soft month. Give yourself time. Give yourself grace. Practice living with more ease and flow just like nature does.  It's time to tell your past goodbye and say hello to your future.

#292 - Weekly Energy Update for October 22, 2023: Scorpio Season and Lunar Eclipse

This week is full of high-energy events. Scorpio season begins tomorrow, and the energy is building all week toward the Lunar Eclipse on Saturday.
Scorpio season can be an intense time. Scorpio is the sign of transformation and this year is especially intense due to the eclipse and the fact that both Mars and Mercury are in Scorpio, increasing the Scorpio energy.
Scorpio isn't satisfied with surface-level anything and wants to go deep. We're talking about deep transformation here! We're transforming our power, our most intimate connections, our willingness to be vulnerable and daring enough to try new things.
Then, just a few days after Scorpio season begins, we'll experience the year's final eclipse - a lunar eclipse and full moon — in Taurus.
A lunar eclipse is an especially powerful full moon. They tell us to let go, surrender, go with the flow, and allow the eclipse to do the work. We may want to control the transformation process. However, there is no way to control what happens during an eclipse.
Because this Taurus Eclipse is the last of a Taurus-Scorpio cycle, it has tremendous power for endings. If there is something you want to let go of, use the Eclipse energies to do so and say goodbye to all that is no longer serving your soul.
Be gentle with yourself since the Eclipse energies are volatile and we are undergoing enormous transformation. This is an excellent moment for self-discovery work. Journaling, meditation, and therapy are all great options.
When this Taurus-Scorpio Eclipse cycle is complete, we will have reached a new stage in our evolution. We've evolved and are now in a greater plane of consciousness than before.
And by the time we reach the Scorpio New Moon on November 13th, fresh energies will be flowing, and we will leave Scorpio season feeling transformed, renewed, a little more settled, and ready to begin a new chapter.

#291 - Weekly Energy Update for Oct. 15, 2023: Eclipse Portal and New Beginnings

Saturday's New Moon Solar Eclipse opened an eclipse portal that we'll be in for the next two weeks until the full moon in Taurus on October 28th. This two-week portal is a powerful period for reflection and transformation, as new chapters begin and fated events occur.
The good news about eclipses is that we can trust the direction they are guiding us in. Eclipses bring events into our lives that are part of the cosmic plan, yet eclipses don't cause something to happen in our lives but allow us to see things more clearly than before. 
This eclipse season set the intention that you will be aligned with MORE; more love, more truth, more joy, more purpose, more creation, more connection, and more YOU.
We can expect some post-eclipse clarity this week when the Sun in Libra meets Mercury in Libra, forming a Cazimi. When Mercury is Cazimi it provides clarity, insights, breakthroughs, and downloads. Pay attention to the downloads you receive this week. They are important. 
As humans, we are going through a series of fated decision points and changes. This is a difficult time for all of us. As my friend Linda Cohen says, "Focus on kindness." Kindness to yourself and others.
All of this transformation requires energy, which may leave you exhausted. Slow down, rest, reflect, listen for messages from your higher self and the universe, and give the changes time to integrate. This will pass, and we will come out stronger as a result.

#290 - Weekly Energy Update for Oct. 8, 2023: New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra

This week's New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra occurs on Saturday morning. This is a spectacular annular solar eclipse with a 'ring of fire'. The Moon is farther away from Earth during an annular solar eclipse than it is during a total eclipse, making it appear smaller and creating a 'ring of fire' around the Moon where the Sun is visible.
Not only will this be visually stunning, but eclipses also shift our consciousness and bring change. The total blockage of the sun acts as a reset button. It's as if we're being turned off and then back on.
Solar eclipses occur during a New Moon and can be thought of as supercharged New Moons. New Moons mark the beginning of the lunar cycle as well as the beginning of a new chapter in our lives.
We can think of eclipses as portals to higher states of consciousness. They help us to make quantum leaps forward. They fast-track our soul contract and propel us toward our destiny. As a result, eclipses tend to bring fated events and they place us wherever we need to be.
We can't prepare for what's to come since eclipses are so unpredictable. There will very certainly be unexpected twists and turns. And because these twists and turns are fated, we can trust that we're being guided in the direction the Universe knows is best.
To understand an Eclipse more we look at the sign it’s in.  And this one is happening in Libra, so we can expect some themes around balance. Libra is represented by the scales and regulates the flow of giving and receiving in our lives.
Remember that all of these fated changes will not occur only on the day of the eclipse; we will be in eclipse energy for the next month. Even though all of the unexpected changes are aligning us with our highest good, this is A LOT of powerful energy! 
Take it easy. Rest, lay low, surrender, and allow the eclipses to work their magic. Know that whatever unfolds during this eclipse is not the whole story. This is only the start of something new and wonderful!
