 “When I let go of who I am, I become who I might be.” ― Lao Tzu The Nature of Saturn Saturn is a powerful influence on our lives. He is the slowest moving planet, taking 2.5 years to move through each sign. Saturn brings both the blessings and the curses of life- as he gives his wisdom only through the slow ripening of time, effort, suffering, loss and age. It takes time to learn the deepest, hardest and most important wisdom of life. This wisdom has to be worked for and requires effort to receive. Thus, Saturn pays us in enlightenment for the work, effort, steady actions, that we make over a long period of time. If we don't adhere to his rules for wisdom, he will make us suffer the consequences. Many people fear Saturn and prefer the the type of rewards the other planets offer. Quick action and reaction from Mars. Comfort, luxury and creativity from Venus. Expansion of knowledge through Jupiter. Quick playful imagination of the Moon. Saturn, however, has different means and ways. He forces us to listen, pay attention, to attend to body, mind and emotions. He gives grief- through loss and endings, through death and dying; he reminds us of what is truly important as a result. What is lasting and what is not. Saturn shows us all that goes beyond the material plane of existence, and the rewards we get for our effective and meaningful actions that are aligned with Natural Law. Structure is Saturn’s domain- of the physical human form, the muscle, bone and tissues- as well as the universe. He is old, he rules old age, and also that which comes with age. He is vata, air, and dries things out as a result. The absence of water (life) brings death, and when the water of the physical body dries up, we die. Saturn is a loner, and brings loneliness and separation. He reminds us of what is important as a result. In other words, we don’t get to take anything with us when we pass from this lila- this play of life. Just our karma. Saturn helps us ripen, like fruit on a tree. Once ripe, we loosen our hold and release our connection to the tree of life. This is why Saturn rules fall and winter, when vata increases, when fruit and leaves have ripened, fallen and dropped. The tree becomes bare, empty, and goes into a deep rest phase before awakening with the movement of sap in spring time. Working With Saturn, Not Against Him Saturn helps us ripen. He helps everything in our lives ripen. He helps us grow better with age. And when we resist his ways, we suffer. He wants consistency; methodical action. He wants us to be in tune with the cycles and rhythms of nature and the cosmos- not man made cycles and rhythms. (Ayurveda is the premier health science of Saturn. If you want to suffer less in the physical body, study Ayurvedic wisdom and the timeliness of eating, sleeping etc.) Saturn is a planet of renunciation, hard work, routine, asceticism, old age, the cycles and rhythms of life. (This is why Saturn is the planet of yoga and yoga is a metaphor for Saturn's ways: your hard work pays off, but it requires consistent practice). Obey Saturn’s disciplined guidelines, and you will be in alignment with him and with Natural Laws, but disobey these Laws and he will make you miserable. Perhaps this is why Libra is such a good position for him. Libra, after all, rules over balance, legal and political ideals and business markets. The overarching ruler of life, however, are the Laws of Nature, not man made laws. Nature's Laws are karmic. Think: every action has a reaction. This is the domain of Saturn. Saturn likes hard work, suffering, and has a “no pain, no gain” attitude. Though some of these darker tendencies may be mitigated being in a friendly sign, expect some tears and hardship before happy resolutions. After all, Saturn rules grief. How will you know Saturn is asking you to re-evaluate your actions? You will feel a pinch, some displeasure, anxiety, depression or grief. When the pain comes, as it surely will, this is our guide post along the Path; our reminder of where we are clinging and what we are clinging to, what changes we are resisting. If we hadn’t seen the attachment prior to this struggle, we have an opportunity to see it clearly now in the face of tragedy, our tears, our suffering. As Pema Chodron reminds us in her book Living Beautifully with Uncertainty and Change: “When we resist change, it's called suffering.” And when we resist anything, it will ultimately hurt us. Working with Saturn's ways and not against him will help ease the suffering he brings. How Does Saturn Effect You? Looking at your own jyotish chart, see where Saturn sits. What sign is he in? What house? What planets does he sit with, if any? Saturn gives drishti to three, seven and ten houses away from himself. So these areas of your chart will also feel the slowness, the need for balance and age, in order for you to ripen properly. His effects on the 7th house will create slow ripening in relationships- either with late marriage, no marriage or to an older person. Saturn's effects on the 10th house will create a slow ripening in the career or dharmic offering. This can effect how you offer your work and who you offer it to. It can also indicate that you are working with the physical body, with the elderly, or that you put in hard work and physical exertion for your career. Saturn connected with the 5th house can indicate having children very late in life, no children, or suffering through the children in some capacity. These are some examples of how Saturn can effect parts of our life based on the jyotish chart. Saturn transits Aquarius April 28th, 2022 until March 29th, 2025 Saturn doesn't care for excess and won't allow it. I usually refer to him as a grumpy old man. His lessons come through time and weathering the storms of life. There may be excesses and expansion offered as Jupiter navigates his own sign of Pisces, however, Saturn does not tolerate excess. He will bring restraint and restrictions to anything imbalanced. Expect simplification, release, and slowing down- in order to ultimately find a more harmonious way forward. Saturn allows for necessity, but nothing extra. Saturn is a loner, and brings loneliness and separation. He reminds us of what is important as a result. As Saturn arrives in Aquarius, structures shift and take on new shape for the coming 2.5 years. The impact of this transit on your body and life will greatly depend on your relationship with Saturn. Understand his impact on your body and life from his natal placement and from a transit perspective. - Are you in alignment with natural time? - Are you listening to your body wisdom? - Are you honoring the cycles and rhythms of your body, the seasons, the Transits? - Are you balancing work and rest, movement and meditation, silence and stillness? Remember that wherever you are out of balance with Saturn, he will give you a pinch. Always pay attention when he gives you a small pinch because the more you resist or avoid his messages, the louder he will get. When Saturn is shouting, there is dis-ease already fully established in your body already. Since Saturn is the planet of grief, he will be asking you to find a new relationship with your grief, emotions and losses in the coming 2.5 year transit. Aquarius is a sign of duality who requests balance, integration, and harmony between opposites. Although Aquarius and the eleventh house bring gains, it is through initial losses and release that space to receive is possible. There is a strong theme over the next one to five years of endings and beginnings as Jupiter and Saturn complete their cycles around the zodiac. Rahu, transiting Aries, however, is initiating beginnings over the next year and a half. As Saturn moves through Aquarius, pay attention to this theme of holding duality simultaneously. Opens and closes, endings and beginnings, birth and death, old and new, loss and gains, summer and winter. These dualities surfacing are a request for more integration and balance in life and body. Both Saturn and Rahu rule Aquarius. Although these two planets express themselves similarly, Saturn prefers consistency, focus, hard work and effort. As the planet of grief, your effort is required in order for Saturn's results. Just as your grief work makes space for the new, Aquarius requests loss and letting go, before space for the gains are possible. Rahu on the other hand refuses consistency and denies clarity. He is often confused, forcing deep surrender. Wherever there is gripping or forcing, the wrath of Rahu intensifies. When Saturn and Rahu collide there is a stormy energy that can be big, unfocused, and destructive. Together, these two planets invite structure and surrender. Both qualities can activate a strength and acceptance found in the expression of the Middle Way. "Everybody's middle way is a different middle way. Everyone practices in order to find out for him or herself personally how to be balanced, how to be not too tight and not too loose. No one else can tell you. You just have to find out for yourself.” ― Pema Chödrön, The Wisdom of No Escape: How to Love Yourself and Your World Aquarius correlates to the eleventh house of gains, older siblings, and friends. It follows the tenth house of the dharmic offering and supports the worldly gains that come with sharing your dharmic gifts, wisdom, and offerings with the world. Although the eleventh house is considered a house of worldly and monetary gains, it doesn't happen without loss, release, and letting go. As the symbol of this air sign implies, the pot of water is being poured out. In order to receive the gains that are possible, there must be a death process taking place as well. Self Inquiry: - What is in the way of your success, growth, and deepest nourishment? - What grief needs to be honored, released, or acknowledged so that you have more space to receive life? - Where are you resisting or refusing to make space for the new? - Where are you creating hardship, struggle, and pain unnecessarily? - What is requesting your surrender, acceptance, or release?

 18k In One Month! 💥I had my best year financially last year. In over a decade of sharing my gifts and wisdom, last year was by far my best year yet!
I had multiple months where I made between 15k and 18k! I topped six figures yet again. ✨(Yes, this was in a pandemic!!!) ✨ Becoming wildly successful (yes, money is a part of this!!!) does not happen overnight. It requires your declaration, right action, and your willingness to grow. No one can make you wildly successful, but you. ✨ BUT... In my personal experience, these are the FOUR things that have determined my success- year after year, month after month- even in a global pandemic. ✨ 1) I have the RIGHT systems in place and I know how to use them properly. They convert, get results, and make money- consistently. After years of refinement and trial and error, I finally have a solid structure in place that keeps getting better and better. Your systems will either make or break your business growth. (If you missed my last 14 Day Dharma Challenge, you won't want to miss the next one!!!) ✨ 2) I ONLY work with amazing women who want results and want to grow. My clients are women who are already taking action in their lives and showing up for themselves in remarkable ways. The women I work with are ready and willing for growth, success, and making a difference in this world. These phenomenal women know what they want and they are ready to make it happen! ✨ 3) I SURROUND myself with an incredible team of support. I regularly am held and witnessed by remarkable healers, therapists, and advisors- in order for physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and financial strength. I know that success does NOT happen alone, in isolation, or without immense holding. The more lives you want to touch, the bigger support team you will need! ✨ 4) I do my INNER work consistently. This piece is absolutely non-negotiable for up-leveling and up-grading your dharmic path and soul business. I am on top of my personal mythology and know my biggest shadows. I show up for myself and I do my grief work consistently. I am willing to face my own darkness, transform it, and make space for the nourishment and abundance I want in my life. I know that my business is a direct reflection of how I feel about myself, and how I feel in my body. ❤️⚡️ I didn't come into this life for mediocrity. I know I am here to make a difference in this world, and impact the lives of very special women. I want to share my tools with you and help you strengthen your life and business (from the inside out) so you can get to the next phase of your dharmic path. Are you ready to upgrade your path and purpose?! ❤️⚡️ The world needs you to share your precious soul gifts- now more than ever!

Let it cut more deep. Let it ferment and season you as few human or even divine ingredients can.” - Hafiz As the year comes to a close, one final full Moon occurs on December 29th at 20:27 MT while Moon is transiting Gemini and Ardra nakshatra. This is a powerful close to an incredible year. Out like a lion, in like a lamb?! Out with ferocity, in with space for something new. This full Moon asks you to clear, purge and release stagnant emotions and lingering grief from the previous cycles. Expect big waves and inner storms. Big gains may be likely, but make sure you are grounded or you will get destabilized. Ardra is Rudra’s domain. There is nothing small, silent or still when it involves Rudra. He comes with big energy and powerful, often forceful, change. The domain of Ardra is particularly connected to big emotional body waves. The symbol of this constellation is a tear drop. Wherever there has been a build up of undigested emotion, Ardra will force the release. This is a potent time to do your grief work, attend to your inner waters, and support the release of stagnant emotions. Spend some time with your emotional body and be diligent with your inner waves. What are you still processing from this year? What needs to be closed and released so you can move forward? What is the wisdom of your emotional body sharing with you? What needs to be digested and integrated from this year? What feels too big or overwhelming still? What are you moving away from? What are you moving towards? What is your relationship with the emotional body helping you discover and awaken? Creative Ritual  Identifying Your Inner Landscape I consider the four level check in to be the most basic self care resource. It is an identification process, a tool that can help you honor what is happening in the now. You can then create the nourishment you need through proper resources. The four levels of awareness are: the mental body, emotional body, physical body, and spiritual body. I encourage you to self track daily, hourly, or even moment to moment. Your identification process can then be taken into drawing, movement explorations, journaling or music, in order for you to deepen, directly work with, and transform what is arriving in your inner landscape. The four level check in is a simple, yet vital resource for self tracking. Document your four level check-ins. Use a Self Care Journal as a way to track your ongoing, ever changing inner landscape. This journal can be a helpful resource for identifying themes emerging in your healing and transforming process. Steps for A Four Level Check In 1) Whatever you are doing right now, hit the pause button and bring your attention inward. It may help to close your eyes, but this isn't necessary. You may be sitting, standing or walking, but bring your attention to the now regardless of what is happening around you. Notice your breath and use this as a resource for coming back to the present. 2) Notice the physical body. What sensations are arriving in your body? What is the physical body sharing with you? Be present to images, colors, words, expressions and shapes that arise. 3) Notice the emotional body. What is arriving on the level of feelings and emotions within you? What is the emotional body sharing with you? Be present to images, colors, words, expressions and shapes that arise. 4) Notice the mental body. What thoughts, words, stories, ideas, or perceptions are arriving? What is the mental body sharing with you? Be present to images, colors, words, expressions and shapes that arise. 5) Notice the spiritual body. This is a very subtle, nuanced place within and around you. Notice how it feels and how it arrives. Be present to images, colors, words, expressions and shapes arriving from the spiritual body. 6) Come to your drawing pad and draw four circles. Each one of these circles represents one of your four bodies. Start with the physical body and fill in your sensation circle with colors, images, or shapes that mirror or express your physical body check in. Do this for each body. 7) Label each circle with the body that it represents. Title each circle and let it speak. If your physical body circle could speak, what would it say? Let it respond to these statements: I am I want I need Complete this harvesting process for each level of your body. This is an important time for self reflection, digestion, and integration of the previous cycles. Spend some time in the coming days and weeks harvesting from your past year and creating a sense of closure. Look back over your 2020 Creative Rituals. What have you created this year? What strikes you? As you create closure for this year, allow ritual to support your release process. What steps can you take to honor this closure and release? What rituals can help you close this chapter and let go? I encourage you to find ways that art, music, dance, sound, nature and the elements can support the close of your year. It’s been wonderful to walk with you this year and to support your cosmic and creative process!  Keep Growing in 2021! Have you struggled to find a sidereal moon calendar to plan your year?! Is aligning with your body and nature a priority on your path?! Do you believe that you have the power to create an abundant, nourishing life for yourself?! Are you a Moon Child who loves to study the power and wisdom of the Moon?! My 2021 Moon Wisdom + Creative Ritual Calendar is for you!! Listen to My 2021 Transit Class and Pre-Purchase Your 2021 Moon Wisdom Calendar Now  “Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others.” — Pema Chödron The last new Moon of the year occurs while Moon is debilitated in Scorpio and Jyestha nakshatra with a Solar Eclipse. On December 14th at 09:17 am MT, five planets are transiting Scorpio, including the Moon. Venus, Sun, Mercury, Ketu and Moon navigate the sign of shadow and death at this time. This new Moon is ripe with solace and transformational depth. The northern hemisphere is in the shadowy darkness right now, moving towards the darkest day of the year on the 21st. Be mindful that this new Moon could bring the emptiness and death of winter to the surface. Jyestha is the king of the devas, or sattvic god qualities within you. His weapon is a thunderbolt and he rules over all weather that involves water and rain. Essentially, Indra is prana, life force energy. To control your prana, is to control your life. This also supports sensory control and becoming your own master of body, emotions, and mind. Indra can give you the power to control your body, your life, your life force. He wants you to have control over your self and your life and he can go about that in harsh ways. Indra and this portion of the sky supports thorough investigation through knowledge and wisdom. He does things fully and with passion. There is no half way with him. Dive in completely or don’t bother at all. He does everything with devotion and selfless service. Offer your efforts to the highest good, to dharma. Is your path serving you? Are you fulfilled? What needs to change, shift, transform in order for you to feel the nourishment? Where are you skimming the surface when you should be exploring the depths? Are you being excessive, rather than precise? What steps can you take towards mastery and authenticity? Listen to My 2021 Transit Podcast + Pre-Purchase Your 2021 Moon Wisdom Calendar This new Moon brings the close of an intense two week eclipse portal. Solar eclipses tend to intensify our relationship with power, the masculine, authorities, and purpose. Confront undigested emotions, fear, resistance and inner conflict directly. Likely your personal mythology will be intensifying at this time so you can clean up any shadows that are keeping you in the dark. Pay attention to what is emerging from your depths. This solar eclipse closes a two week cycle of intense shadow work. Eclipses intensify everything and tend to make mountains out of mole hills- so we can see what we have been avoiding or negating within the unconscious realms. Stay positive and look for solutions rather than focusing on the darkness, but do not bypass the necessary inner work that you are being asked to show up for right now. This is a powerful time to address inner shadows head on and release inner blockages that you've been overlooking. Your willingness to honor your big emotions will support their release. Stay present and willing to be with your challenging parts. There is something trying to push through and come to the surface. Are you listening? What needs to change? Your emotional body waves are asking for more nourishment. Be willing to support the release so that you have space for more of what you truly want and need. This eclipse portal closes with a total solar eclipse on December 14th. The solar eclipse begins at 06:33 am MT and ends at 11:53 am MT, with the maximum eclipse occurring at 09:13 am MT A reminder that this closes a two week cycle that has not been good for starting new projects, new endeavors, or relationships. Emotions tend to intensify during eclipses and shadows are much stronger. You may have been less clear and focused the past few weeks. Let the shadows clear over the coming days before making big decisions. Challenges often intensify so we can see them more clearly and make the necessary changes that will support new growth. This can be a time of immense inner transformation if used properly. Although this eclipse is not visible from the Northern Hemisphere, from a Vedic perspective, it is not advised to be outside during an eclipse- or to look directly at the eclipse taking place. Wear a head covering if you have to be outside so you don't absorb the shadow. Ideally, this is a time for spiritual practices such as meditation, chanting and fasting. Set intentions and honor the sensitivity of this time. It is also widely recognized that during and between eclipses, starting new endeavors will not bring positive results. No new projects, relationships or activities should start in the eclipse portal. Notice what needs are arriving, then take action after the eclipse portal closes. Best to lay low, attend to spiritual pursuits, get extra rest and work with your inner shadow very consciously during this cycle. This is a powerful time to honor your emotional body wisdom and confront your inner shadows. Make necessary changes in your actions and choices. Release negative thought patterns, behaviors and inner dialogue that is keeping you stuck in patterns and cycles of lack. Clear, release and let go so that you have even more space for your deepest nourishment. Solstice Solstice arrives on the 21st at 03:02 am MT bringing the shortest day of the year for the Northern Hemisphere, and longest day of the year for the Southern Hemisphere. On this day, the Sun appears to stand still. This is the still point. Silence, pause, reflection is felt around the globe. Use this time for contemplation, meditation and quiet introspection. What are you turning towards? What are you turning away from? Listen to My 2021 Transit Podcast + Pre-Purchase Your 2021 Moon Wisdom Calendar Creative Ritual New Moon Mandala The new Moon and the closing of a year is upon you. As you empty your cup and let go of the last cycles, you are given the opportunity for creating something new and cultivating renewal. Mandalas are my preferred activity for both new Moon and full Moon as they symbolize wholeness, a sacred container, and unlimited creative potential. 1) Come to your drawing pad and draw a circle. Use craypas, paints, pens, collage or any medium that speaks to you. On the outside of the circle write down the pieces of life you are discarding, that aren't working, that need to be let go of. These are the pieces of your self and your life that aren't bringing you harmony and joy and you no longer want to carry with you. 2) Fill the inside of your Circle. The inside of your circle is where you are free to create what you are moving towards. What fulfills you? What do you need right now? What are you making space for in your life? What are you creating and manifesting in your life and on your path? 3) Harvesting. Title your mandala and let it speak to you. What message does it have for you? Let your mandala answer the questions below. Harvesting Questions: I am, I want, I need What am I filling my Self with? What am I emptying my Self of? What am I letting flow towards me? What am I moving away from? What am I making space for in my life? What am I no longer willing to take with me on my journey?

Jupiter debilitated in Capricorn, as well as transiting Aquarius. Rahu exalted in Taurus, and Ketu exalted in Scorpio. Individual results will vary widely depending on your natal chart. ARIES Personal mythology and body parts to work with: Throat, voice, speaking, sexual organs and excretory organs, knees, shins, and calves. Money, nourishment, sexuality, fear of death, trauma, dharmic offerings, visibility, gains, older siblings, friendships. It’s time to speak up, use your voice, and ask for what you need. You are asking for more- more money, more nourishment, more visibility. What steps are you taking to make this a reality? You may feel blocked or restricted with your speaking and voice. Time to get extra support with your self expression and your power. Ask for help of you will keep walking into the same challenges with no real solutions or results. Vulnerability is at an all time high so don’t take unnecessary risks. This is a powerful time, however, to revisit past trauma and get extra support for navigating fear, death, health issues, spiritual awakening and sexuality. Lean closer to your vulnerability and fear. Don’t bypass or avoid it. This will only intensify it and keep you stuck. Be courageous with your fear and you will be able to make space for even more nourishment on multiple levels of life. TAURUS Personal mythology and body parts to work with: Head, face, whole body, pelvis, pelvic bowl, thighs and knees. Sense of self, identity, ego, sensitivity, relationships, sexual trauma, support, dharma, gurus and teachers, inner authority, dharmic offerings. Rise and shine Taurus! You must face yourself fully and completely in this cycle. Face your shadow and peel back the layers. The obstacles you continue to face require your commitment and perseverance. Bypassing is no longer an option for you. Growth and expansion are possible, but not without diligence and honesty. What are you moving towards? Why? You say you want expansion and visibility, but you need to get honest with yourself about what motivates you. There is still fear holding you back from your truth and passion. Move closer to the fear that keeps you stuck in self betrayal. The vulnerability of your closest relationships is key to unlocking your blockages. Address the trauma in your pelvis and pelvic bowl. Get honest about your sexual trauma and relationship grief. You have the potential for big awakenings if you can truly show up for your body and relationship challenges. Go forward with courage. GEMINI Personal mythology and body parts to work with: Feet, lower stomach, sexual organs, excretory organs, thighs. Enemies, conflict, healing, vulnerability, fear of death, unconscious and subconscious terrain, dharma, life purpose, ancestors, dreams, losses. Your work in this cycle is primarily with the ancestors and past karmas. Are you doing your grief work? It is truly nonnegotiable at this time as you sift and sort through the layers. As you confront the pain, conflicts, vulnerabilities and fears, ask yourself how much of this is yours? How much of this is your ancestors? How much of this is the collective? All three layers are important and impactful- and will shape and transform you. The resistance to facing conflict becomes a challenge in this cycle. You need to get radically honest with yourself and listen to your gut intelligence. Are you really being congruent- with yourself and others? What your body tells you is the truth, but your actions, choices, behaviors and communication need to match your body wisdom. Practice expressing yourself with complete honesty. What are you afraid of? Access my complete extended Dharma Horoscopes in my 2021 Moon Wisdom Calendar CANCER Personal mythology and body parts to work with: Solar plexus, upper gut, pelvis, pelvic bowl, sexual organs, excretory organs, shins and calves. Empowerment, children, playfulness, romance, the masculine, relationships, sexuality, support, creativity, vulnerability, fear of death, unconscious and subconscious realms, friendships, gains, older siblings. Break free from the illusion of self doubt and disempowerment. How are you betraying yourself still? Where are you disconnected from your own power? Awaken to your potent power and purpose. Deepen your gut intelligence on multiple levels. Through diet and digestion, core work, playfulness and creativity. Notice what sparks your child-like sense of wonder and joy. Are you feeding your inner child well? You need this pleasure for your dharmic path and purpose. Your offerings will not be clear without your inner child, so pay close attention to the wisdom it shares with you. Gains and success come from this creative play, so it is worth your time and effort to strengthen this part of yourself. LEO Personal mythology and body parts to work with: Heart, chest, lungs, lower gut, pelvis, pelvic bowl, knees. Emotional body, breath, land, home, property, mother, conflicts, enemies, bad habits, healing, relationships, sexuality, support, dharmic offerings, visibility.

This is the year you heal those mother wounds and fully show up for your emotional body wisdom. No numbing or avoiding this time. Your heart, emotions, home, and mother will be forcing you to look more closely and do your inner work in a new way. Heal the trauma living in your heart so you don’t have to keep carrying around this pain. You are making space for even more love and nourishment. Just say yes! Honoring inner conflicts are key for you in the coming cycle. Finding balance with inner and outer, self and other, your needs and your clients’ needs. Show up for your self and your body fully. Listen to your needs and express them. Conflicts can be mitigated or avoided when you are truly congruent. Are you being fully present with your body and its wisdom? Are you letting your relationships know what you really need? VIRGO Personal mythology and body parts to work with: Hands, arms, shoulders, solar plexus, upper gut, lower gut, thighs. Self expression, expressive arts, creativity, courage, empowerment, the masculine, playfulness, children, conflicts, healing, enemies, dharma, soul purpose, inner authority. Your creativity holds the key to your courage. Lean into the trauma and grief you are carrying with your creativity. The fear of your full self expression must be honored and addressed more fully so you can be freer to up level your life and soul purpose. Your willingness to get creative with your life determines your success. Start creating! Use all mediums and try new things. What is inspiring you? What feels fun and nourishing? Move in that direction. Your creative expression supports unfolding wisdom and empowerment. Find balance and harmony with the masculine and your inner power. Clear the gut and watch digestion carefully. Prevent stagnation and constipation by eating easily digestible foods, doing seasonal cleanses, and following Ayurvedic guidelines.

This will support congruency and healing on multiple levels of your life.

Attend to your voice and address your fear of full self expression. This resistance to speaking your truth, sharing your heart songs, and expressing your needs, is costing you deeper nourishment and pleasure. Lean closer to the trauma living in your throat and heal the fear of being visible in this world. Focus more on self expression and sharing your needs authentically. The intimacy you crave is dependent on you being fully honest with yourself- and others. Listen closely to your heart and strengthen the balance between inner and outer, self and other, visibility and invisibility. Boundaries are key- physically, energetically, emotionally, verbally. Practice a new way of being in your body. One that honors your inner wisdom- while also being present with others. Can you hold both? Your heart is your guru in this cycle. Notice what it tells you about your inner wisdom and the truth of who you are. As you deepen your understanding of your own power, let it guide you towards deeper nourishment, play, romance and joy. Notice how this supports deeper layers of your path and purpose. Follow the joy- even if it feels incredibly vulnerable.

Strip away the illusions holding you back and lighten your load. Self expression and creativity are key in this cycle. Use your hands to create and let them teach you more about yourself and your wisdom. Source from your creativity and from the arts.

Just make sure you aren’t running away from your self, your life, or others. Can you find balance with spiritual and material life? As you spend more time alone, notice what needs are surfacing. Are you being honest with yourself and expressing your needs to others? Honor conflicts and challenges by showing up more fully. Speak, express, and share your needs. There’s a tendency to be passive aggressive when you aren’t honest with your needs and boundaries. You can avoid conflicts and challenges just bey being honest with yourself, and clear and direct with others.

Transform the challenges you keep confronting so you can create a new identity for yourself. The new you allows life to be simple, easy, and nourishing. This includes upgrading your personal mythology around money and wealth. It’s time to speak up and speak out! This supports your visibility and your ability to be seen in new ways. Staying invisible is no longer an option. It may feel scary to expand right now, but you can no longer afford to resist your own wisdom and power. Step proudly into your power and ask for what you need. Playing small helps no one. AQUARIUS Personal mythology and body parts to work with: Feet, head, whole body, heart, chest, lungs, knees.

Most of this is ancestral, but needs your attention. The clearing and releasing you are doing right now is preparing you for a new sense of self. Who are you becoming? What are you creating for your one, precious life? This is a cycle of big endings and release, as well as powerful openings and beginnings. Attend to lose ends and parts of you that need to be let go of- so you have space for the new. Pay close attention to your inner wisdom and take plenty of pauses.

“Where we think we need more self-discipline, we usually need more self love.” - Tara Mohr The second to last full Moon of the year comes on the 30th of November at 02:29 am MT while Moon is powerfully positioned in his favorite sign of Taurus. Moon is in its mulitrikona degrees at the time of the full Moon, while transiting Rohini nakshatra. A penumbral lunar eclipse opens the two week eclipse portal, supporting deep shadow work. This cycle is important for your creativity and manifestation. Awaken your big desires and dreams from their slumber. Stop playing small! Rohini nakshatra is a powerful place of manifestation in the sky. Ruling god Brahma and his wife Saraswati bring creative power and potential to Rohini. In the holy trinity of gods, Brahama is the creative force. Without him, life would not be possible. In Vedic lore, Lord Brahma created the entire universe from his navel. His wife Saraswati rules over the expressive arts as well as knowledge and wisdom, technology and machines. Together, Brahma and Saraswati spark desire and bring it into form. As an extremely creative and sensual constellation, Rohini can fulfill desires, support manifestation, awaken deep nourishment, and increase sexuality and sensuality. What desires need your attention right now? What are you creating on your path and what steps are you taking to make it happen? How can you come back to sensuality and pleasure more fully? What needs to be created, expressed, nurtured- in order for you to be fulfilled? What are you manifesting right now and why? This full Moon and penumbral lunar eclipse opens the two week eclipse portal. This eclipse cycle will close December 14th with a total solar eclipse at 06:33 am MT. Remember that eclipses intensify everything and tend to make mountains out of mole hills- so we can see what we have been avoiding or negating within the unconscious realms. Leading up to and around the eclipse may be particularly uncomfortable. Lunar eclipses tend to especially intensify the emotional body landscape. Your willingness to honor your big emotions will support their release. Stay present and willing to be with your challenging parts. There is something trying to push through and come to the surface. Are you listening? What needs to change? Your emotional body waves are asking for more nourishment. Be willing to support the release so that you have space for more of what you truly want and need. The eclipse portal will open with a penumbral lunar eclipse on the 29th. The lunar eclipse begins on the 30th at 12:32 am MT and ends at 04:53 am MT, with the maximum eclipse occurring at 02:42 am MT. This eclipse will be visible in north America, Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, the Pacific, Atlantic and Arctic. This opens a two week cycle of shadow that is not good for starting new projects, new endeavors, or relationships. Emotions tend to intensify during eclipses and shadows are much stronger. You may feel less clear and focused so don't make sudden decisions. Challenges often intensify so we can see them more clearly and make the necessary changes that will support new growth. This can be a time of immense inner transformation if used properly. From a Vedic perspective, it is not advised to be outside during an eclipse or to look directly at the eclipse taking place. Wear a head covering if you have to be outside so you don't absorb the shadow. Ideally, this is a time for spiritual practices such as meditation, chanting and fasting. Set intentions and honor the sensitivity of this time. It is also widely recognized that during and between eclipses, starting new endeavors will not bring positive results. No new projects, relationships or activities should start in the eclipse portal. Notice what needs are arriving, then take action after the eclipse portal closes. Best to lay low, attend to spiritual pursuits, get extra rest and work with your inner shadow very consciously during this cycle. Use the eclipse day for spiritual practices, rest, retreat and your dharmic path. Set intentions for the coming weeks and honor your self care. Honor you emotional body wisdom and confront your inner shadows. Make necessary changes in your actions and choices. Release negative thought patterns, behaviors and inner dialogue that is keeping you stuck in patterns and cycles of lack. Clear, release and let go so that you have even more space for your deepest nourishment.  Creative Ritual Full Moon Mandala Come to your drawing pad and draw a big circle. Use craypas, paints, pens, collage or any medium that speaks to you. Fill your circle (Full Moon) with what is nourishing you right now. Fill your circle with all your abundance, desires, prosperity, dreams and hopes. Nothing is too big, nor too small for this circle. Let your fullness be expressed in this mandala. Let these questions prompt your mandala creation: What gifts are you asking of Brahama and Saraswati in the cycle to come? What is supporting balance and harmony in your life? Who and what is feeling especially nourishing right now? What are you attracting and aligning with on your path right now? Give your full Moon Mandala a title. Let your mandala speak. If your full Moon mandala had a message for you, what would it say? 2) Harvest from your mandala. Answer these questions: I am, I want, I need I sense, I feel, I Imagine, I express What feels nourishing and fulfilling right now? Where do you need more nourishment? What are you opening to in the cycle to come? What are you closing to in the cycle to come? What are you manifesting and creating for yourself and your path? A possible next step would be to move your image. Use this mandala to inspire a movement exploration with your body. This will support an embodied integration of your powerful full Moon Mandala.

If you answered YES to any of these questions, it’s time to come back to your body and its wisdom. We all need tools, guidance and support on the dharmic path. We will certainly need resources and help growing our businesses and sharing our offerings. But if you find yourself constantly seeking answers from outside of your own body, or looking to others for validation and insights, you are actually imbalanced. Dharma is such an individual process and journey. Your life purpose and the gifts and wisdom you are here to share are unique to you and your ancestors. There’s only one of you! This is why I encourage you to resource from your own body wisdom and listen to your own inner wisdom. You will find the answers you seek within your own body. Sourcing from your own body is vital for creating a nourishing path!! Your business will only expand at a rate that feels safe within your body. So honoring your body and its needs becomes nonnegotiable when we want to expand, grow, create, or receive even more nourishment in life. Look for these signs along the way to determine if you are moving closer to harmony with your path and purpose, or if you are moving away from it. 10 Clues You Are Connected and Aligned With Your Path and Purpose 1) When you listen to your body, your body wisdom says yes.

Jupiter retrograde June 20th, 2021 to October 17th, 2021 Transits Aquarius November 20th, 2021 to April 13th, 2022 An unusual dance of Jupiter begins November 19th, 2020. As he shifts into his debilitation sign, Capricorn, he joins Saturn here. Jupiter transits usually last about one year, but his dance will be a bit of a slide forward and backwards in the months to come. This movement provides a chance to retrace your steps and do some necessary clean up that may have been missed along the way. Saturn is content in his own sign of Capricorn, while Jupiter feels too constricted here. Saturn feels balance and Jupiter feels restraint, yet the two planets actually can provide balance and harmony when they collide. In fact, Jupiter’s expansion and Saturn’s contraction, create alignment with both inner and outer realms. What does balance and harmony feel like in your body? In your life? Saturn is the planet of grief and effort. He can squeeze and cause pressure to Jupiter's expansive ways. A debilitated planet can't offer much outer support as its energy turns inward. This transit can cause challenges with all things Jupiter- so be mindful of what needs are surfacing and what changes and adjustments need to be made on your dharmic path. Jupiter in his sign of debilitation will turn him deeply within, which is not great for worldly, external pursuits. No debilitated planet loves being seen, expressive, bold, or visible because they can only express themselves at 0% capacity. The energy is vulnerable, weak, invisible at times. Yet it can awaken the inner realms in very potent, magical ways. I find debilitated planets to be very spiritual as a result- if we are willing to take a deep dive into our depths. They ask us to move closer to our vulnerabilities, insecurities, and in many ways our shadows. How can that be a bad thing? Capricorn is a hard working sign of effort. Hence, ruling planet and blue collar worker, Saturn, feeling comfortable here. Jupiter, however, has more of a royal expression. He wants ease, comfort, grace, and doesn’t do well with hard work or effort- unless it involves knowledge and wisdom. Are you resisting your visibility in some way? Do you notice yourself holding back or hiding? Challenges With This Transit The mistake that many people will make in this transit is resisting necessary support and guidance. You might also make poor choices with guidance and support, so be mindful that the resources you use check out. Be cautious of fraudulent behavior or people who misrepresent themselves. Don’t push away support that has been helpful, just because you think “I can do it alone”. Debilitated Jupiter often causes people to derail their progress or move into patterns of adharma because they are not listening to their inner wisdom or facing their fear fully. Poor judgement and missed opportunities are likely in this transit if you are not honoring your body, its needs, and your dharmic path. You will need a solid team of support in place for this transit. This is nonnegotiable! Wherever you lack proper holding and guidance, or you are missing support, the hole will become more obvious at this time. More support is better in this cycle, not less. Be careful of falling into old sabotage behaviors or getting lazy. Debilitated Jupiter can’t offer much support, so it will require diligence with your dharma, your inner wisdom, and the guidance that you offer others. If you are a teacher, wisdom worker, or someone who shares knowledge and wisdom as your purpose, this transit will require extra resilience, focus, restructuring and intention. You may lose sight of your goals, desires, clarity or focus. You may feel disheartened, burned out, overburdened. All the more reason to have the right people around you to help you remember your strengths, direction, and truth. Jupiter will be vulnerable and weak in this transit for many. Get extra rest, attend to your inner needs, and listen carefully to your body wisdom. Make meditation, time in Nature, and simplicity a top priority. If you are willing to dive deeply, you will find some very potent wisdom within. Resisting your inner wisdom and deepest needs, however, will cause unnecessary suffering and grief. Look to see where Capricorn lives in your jyotish chart. The theme of this house will provide you with more insight about this transit. This house theme will show you what areas of your life will need extra support and where your vulnerabilities may feel more visible and challenging. Seek balance in this area of your life and body. Listen carefully to this body part. The Nature Of Jupiter Jupiter is a planet of sattva, purity. His intention is to purify what is impure and to awaken pure knowledge. He prefers the spiritual realms and offers spiritual support and guidance when well placed in the natal chart. When we go against him, he can be overpowering in his attempts to bring us back to spiritual harmony and balance. When strong, he brings us pure knowledge, wisdom, and support. When he is weak, he disrupts our ability to receive wisdom, support, and proper guidance- which can have dire impact on your dharmic path. As the planet of expansion, satwa (purity) and akasha (space), Jupiter brings us knowledge and wisdom as well as new awareness. The Sanskrit name for Jupiter is guru (teacher), expressing the support and nourishment he provides. As Jupiter moves around the zodiac, he sparks learning and growth through wisdom, guidance, support and resources. Whatever he touches, he expands- which may feel helpful or uncomfortable at times. Jupiter transits are roughly one year long and impact all levels of wisdom, knowledge, comfort and support. He leads you to your dharmic path and supports the nourishment gained along the way. Positive effects of Jupiter bring comfort, support and understanding. He brings learning through greater awareness and expansion of consciousness- which of course is not always comfortable. He is the ultimate teacher (for better or worse) providing some of the most poignant life lessons. Challenges with Jupiter include lack of support, knowledge, and dharma. When Jupiter is not strong in the chart, there may be little to no support offered, few resources or missed opportunities. Dharma may be impossible to find with a weak or challenging Jupiter in the natal chart. Everyone can benefit from the helpful and supportive resources that Jupiter provides. However, without his support, challenges and struggles increase- which often bring tragedy, trauma and chaos. As the guru, he represents teachers of all sorts- including coaches, healers, guides, mentors, therapists, wisdom keepers and shaman. Receiving the blessings of Jupiter requires that you allow the nourishment and wisdom of this type of support to be received. Negative influences upon Jupiter in the jyotish chart, will create challenging experiences with teachers and a resistance to knowledge and wisdom. Whereas positive influences upon Jupiter in the jyotish chart will offer nourishing and supportive experiences with teachers, wisdom and guides. If Jupiter is a naturally benefic, or positive planet, in your chart, the coming transit may be offset slightly. Jupiter loves dharma, right action, spiritual gifts and wisdom. He is a great support for aligning and clarifying your dharmic path. Using this time wisely will be important for making progress on your path and getting soul level support. If Jupiter is not a positive resource for you, this transit can offer certain challenges with knowledge, wisdom, guidance and support- especially for your dharmic path. You may lose support, be forced to restructure, face hardships and lack of resources. The impact of a weak Jupiter will mostly be felt as he moves through Capricorn and will improve with his entry into Aquarius. Notice what comes to light and take action. For everyone, a Jupiter yagya is strongly recommended for this transit to buffer the vulnerabilities. Do you have the right kind of support right now? Do you have enough support right now? Do you have both spiritual and material support on your team? What feels like it’s missing?

PrePurchase Your Copy NOW  Money is life force energy. It's an exchange of energy between you and your clients or customers. How we use our life force energy matters. Who we share our life force energy with also matters. Your offerings, and the money you receive for them, are a way to be nourished, supported, fulfilled, safe, overflowing. When we don't price our offerings properly, we can end up malnourished. This malnourishment can show up as burnout, resentment, fatigue, numbing, disappointment, anger, grief, or simply not getting your needs met fully. Money as life force means that we need to honor our money like we do our life force energy, our body and its wisdom. I love money because it's a reflector, a mirror. Your money will always show you exactly how you feel, and the shadow emotions you may not be looking at. Pause for a moment and think about your offerings. Your goods, services, products, offerings, creations. How does it feel to share your gifts and wisdom with others? Do you feel like you are being compensated fully? Do you feel ease and joy receiving money for your offerings? Do you feel full and overflowing? If not, some adjustments need to be made so that your life force is being honored and supported. Often the biggest AHA I hear from clients comes when we adjust the structure of their offering to honor their body and its needs AND find pricing that both feels good to them and their body. I see far too many women who are unclear on their financial needs, and who undercut their own receiving. This is a very old patriarchal, misogynistic, and colonialistic mindset that keeps women in lack generation after generation. You do not need martyr yourself, over give, starve, or be depleted when sharing your dharmic gifts and wisdom. Your dharma and the money you receive from sharing your gifts, is a source of nourishment, support, creativity, safety, ease. Honoring the wisdom of your body is a powerful way to adjust your pricing and your nourishment. There is no one size fits all approach to pricing. I often hear business models and business approaches that do not take into consideration the body, its needs, the embodied wisdom you are expressing, nor the legacy you provide. Everyone's needs are different and we should approach pricing in the same way. Making more money does not make you a better person, or more enlightened. Pricing is an individual process that can support your growth, transformation and healing- if used properly. Remember that your pricing should support your overall wholeness and nourishment. Here are four considerations when pricing your offerings: - Your Value The gifts, wisdom and tools you share with the world have required immense time, energy, and willingness on your part. Likely it's taken years for you to have this level of embodied awareness. You've been through so many obstacles, transformations, and overcome so many challenges on your path. The education you've cultivated in your life has come mostly from lived experience. This is part of the value you offer and provide to others. Also consider how much of your embodied value- your inner knowing and inner wisdom- comes from your ancestors. Without the gifts that they have passed down to you epigenetically, you would have no dharma, no purpose, no unique offering. The ancestors are a vital part of your Value and must be acknowledged as part of the vast awareness you bring to this world. Your pricing should honor the value of your gifts, wisdom, ancestors, and all the learning you've gathered thus far in your life. Does your current pricing honor your full embodied value? How have your ancestors influenced your gifts, wisdom, and offerings? - Your Energy Your energy is your life force. It's your body wisdom and all the power and strength of who you are in this body and life. Your pricing should honor the energy you use with your offerings, as well as the energy required to take care of your body, wisdom and gifts. Your self care and spiritual practices are part of how you maintain your energy and gifts. When you are depleted and burned out, you will have nothing to offer, and no energy to share or connect in meaningful ways. Your pricing should reflect the time and energy you spend offering your gifts, as well as the time and energy it takes to maintain your body, emotions, mind, and spirit. In other words, your pricing should allow you to attend to your wholeness. Dharma is your wholeness, which means you can not offer from an empty cup and still be nourished. Receiving money for your offerings and gifts is part of your nourishment and supports your wholeness. Does your current pricing honor your whole body and all its needs? Are you receiving what you need in order to take care of your body, mind, emotions and spirit? - Your Needs Yes, your needs are part of your pricing strategy. Honoring what you need to live a comfortable, safe, healthy, and nourishing life is why you make money. Taking into consideration what you need- on all levels of your life- is part of how we create our pricing and dharmic offerings. Your needs must be part of the equation. Everyone has very different needs and so there can't be only one way to price your offerings. Every woman must know her numbers though. Being able to tangibly clarify what your financial needs are is vital for your pricing. Clarify your monthly expenses and what you need for savings, paying off debts, getting all your basic needs met, getting taxes paid on time. Based on this number, figure out your annual financial goal. Your monthly and annual goals can be used to figure out how many clients, products, packages, etc you need in order to get your needs met. Most of the women I meet don't know how much money they actually need to make for their needs to be met. Their current pricing doesn't fully support the needs they actually have and they find themselves in lack and ongoing malnourishment. You must know how much you need before we can even address your pricing strategy and growth strategies. Do you know how much money you actually need to make? Does your current pricing honor all of your needs- including your energy and your body? Do you find yourself underpricing so you can sell more or giving your gifts away for free? Are you afraid to ask for what you really need? - Your Legacy Legacy takes into consideration past, present and future. Much of your legacy comes from your ancestors. The majority of the embodied gifts you carry with you are given to you by the ancestors. This is part of who you are and what you offer the world. You've also gathered an immense amount of knowledge and wisdom on your path so far. This is part of your offering as well. The gifts, wisdom, tools, and knowledge you provide will support a ripple effect on this planet. Think about all the lives you will touch by offering your medicine. Every life you touch will touch countless other lives as well. You are planting seeds that may come into fruition many years to come. You are supporting souls in their growth and transformation process and that will impact their families, children, partners, friends, community and beyond. You are increasing the quality of life for your clients and offering resources that will prevent more struggle, suffering, and pain. How much is this worth- to you, your clients, the world? For the most part, the positive shifts we support our clients with are truly priceless. Considering your legacy impact in your pricing equation, however, must be honored. Does your current pricing truly honor your legacy and the lasting impact you provide? What is the legacy you want to provide for your clients and the world?
Wondering how Dharmic Mentorship can help you become more nourished, embodied, and whole? >> Book a *free* dharma mentorship session <<  Rahu in Taurus, Ketu in Scorpio: Integrating and Awakening the Extremes of Material and Spiritual Realms September 23rd, 2020 to April 12th, 2022 The Dance of Shadow and Light Whenever the darkness is not integrated and unified with the light, the effects will not be balanced or harmonious. The shadow always seeks the light and the light will always return to darkness. This is a Law of Nature- as they are one and the same. Ultimately, Rahu can not be denied, nor Ketu- his counterpart in karmic liberation. One's jyotish chart shows where the shadow is seeking light and how it will bring your awakening. The blessing of your courageous efforts and your willingness, is finding that within the darkest and most disturbing parts of yourself, you will actually find the missing pieces you are desperately longing for; your whole and empowered life. If you are truly willing to courageously look into your own shadows you will undoubtedly find the very gifts you so desperately long to receive. Your shadows in fact hold the gifts you seek for wholeness, for your dharmic giving, your offerings to the world, and for a meaningful life. We all have resistance. Finding the resistance within yourself and within your life, will point the way towards your own shadow parts. Remember that the energy you use to resist your own darkness takes incredible energy to maintain, and is a drain to the vital life force energy that could be put to good use elsewhere. Energy you could put into living your one precious life- actualizing your dreams, taking bold, fulfilling action steps! We each have an attraction and repulsion dynamic within us- a push and a pull. What you desperately long for and desire is the core of your shadow work and points the way to all the pieces of your darkness. What you deeply long for is seeking you in other words. And it's hidden beneath your shadows. This shadow, and working with one's darkness in order to awaken, is the juxtaposition of Rahu (shadow) and Ketu (light) in ones Jyotish chart, and why Rahu is both darkness and compulsions, as well as desires and insatiable needs. Let Rahu drive you towards your own wholeness. Let him show you what you long for, what you need the most in this life, and let him also show you what you are resisting simultaneously. Wherever Rahu sits in your jyotish chart (the house, the sign, the planets he interacts with, the nakshatra he resides in etc.) points directly to the main theme of your personal life story. Rahu and Ketu are quite literally karma points and they show you why you have incarnated into this body, into this life, and what you are here to learn. The dance of shadow and light, Rahu and Ketu, fully express your ability and your willingness to grow and awaken in this life time. Will you continue to resist your shadows, your darkness (Rahu)? Or will the compulsion to emerge from the illusions be strong enough to force your awakening and crack you open (Ketu)? The power within the shadow is two fold. When you resist your darkness, you refuse and resist the healing and the medicine that your life has to offer. You are essentially refusing and resisting awakening to your most essential gifts. These gifts always reveal your dharma, your life purpose, your reason for being alive, and thus there is an immense reward for your efforts- if you choose to take on the task fully. However, it is not the path of ease, numbness, ignorance and denial. In order to awaken, you must invite in your shadow parts, continue to go deeper into your darkness in unending cycles, to dive for pearls of truth tirelessly- as though your life depends on it. It does. This is why aligning with one's dharma, one's true reason for being alive, is not for everyone, and is in fact evasive for most people. For those who thrive on transformation though, the gifts are unending and continue to unfold. The shadows after all, hold your most potent power, and the wisdom you need for your life and your cycles of death and rebirth. The skill then becomes not just the willingness to go into your shadow, your darkness, but to also know when to let go of it, to release and shift into something new. Some will never walk into their shadows and bravely peel back the layers of their suffering and pain. For those willing to do this courageous work, you must also remember how to come up for air, to take a breath, to dance with both the darkness and the light, to heal and overcome the vow of brokenness, while continuing to bravely dance with your shadows cyclically. Clients who come to me are walking this fine edge of wanting to awaken; there is a desire to know what their life means and how to overcome their biggest obstacles- and yet simultaneously there is a strong fear to look. This is the attraction/repulsion dynamic at play, a true expression of Rahu driving us towards answers, yet fearful of what we will find once we get there. Rahu and Ketu are not planets at all, they are mathematical points on either side of the Moon with rather significant implications on our Self experience. The Moon is arguably the most influential part of the chart- indicating our experiences within the womb and our relationship with mother, as well as our inner nature. The Moon is our guide for emotional well being and our connection to our intuitive self. In fact, the Moon is so important to our life experience, the relationship the nodes have with the Moon indicates their impact on our emotional well being- among other things. Rahu and Ketu, the Moon and the rest of the chart, all create our own unique stories, mythologies and individual karmic dramas. The nodes, as Rahu and Ketu are referred to, are mischievous in nature. They present our karmas to us in this incarnation. Without them, and their very valuable life lessons, we would not have incarnated into a human body. They are essential to this lila, this play of life, that we are involved with in this dimension. Both Rahu and Ketu have their own unique array of offerings, but because they are shadow "planets" they often evade prediction. Their nature is to deceive, mystify, to be illusive, and to blind us from our true nature. They represent forces that can't be seen and are the parts of ourselves that go unnoticed and unrecognized. When, and if, the shadow or veil of illusion is removed, and we do see what has been hidden from us, it is often extremely painful. Rahu and Ketu request that we ask ourselves: What am I not seeing or what am I not willing to see? Where am I doubting myself or hiding from my truth? Where are my desires imbalanced or out of harmony with Nature? What is asking to awaken within my body and spirit? What am I clinging to or unable to let go of? Where can I lighten my load and allow loss? What trauma and grief needs to be honored, digested, transformed? Rahu + Ketu Transit: September 23rd, 2020 to April 12th, 2022 Rahu Exalted in Taurus and Ketu Exalted in Scorpio: On September 23rd, 2020, Rahu and Ketu change signs for the coming 1.5 years. They will be transiting their exaltation signs until April 12th, 2022. This is a powerful time for confronting and acknowledging your shadow work. Exalted planets are capable of expressing their results at 100% capacity- for better or worse. Don’t try to oversimplify the effects exalted and debilitated planets share. They have a variety of expressions, but the shadow nodes are notoriously unpredictable. The shadow planets are extreme in nature and this transit will offer big changes to material life, shadow work and grief work, as well as your material and spiritual progress. To understand how this upcoming transit will impact you, first identify what your personal mythology is based on your natal karma. The placements of Rahu/Ketu in your natal chart will share your life long shadow work with you and help you understand what you are here in this lifetime to awaken and transform. Next, look to Taurus and Scorpio in your natal chart. What houses do they occupy? What does your natal chart share with you about these signs and their placements? The placements of Taurus and Scorpio in your natal chart represent the parts of your life and body that will be experiencing the most karmic activation in the coming 1.5 years. My 2021 sidereal horoscopes for each rising sign will be shared in my 2021 Moon Wisdom Calendar. PRE-PURCHASE NOW Taurus correlates to the second house of the jyotish chart, supporting themes of food, mouth, throat, voice, money, as well as that which supports a new baby after birth. Second house matters are concerned with receiving nourishment and resources for life. Scorpio is an expression of the eighth house of vulnerability. This house of mystery is connected to occult and mystical spirituality, fear, the animal body and animal instincts, unconscious and subconscious parts of ourselves, as well as past lives, diseases and challenges that are challenging to overcome. It correlates to sex organs and organs of elimination. Eighth house issues can bring debt, terror, intuition, sexuality and our deep rooted fear to the surface. Not surprisingly, these two signs are mirrors of each other, expressing opposition through material and spiritual themes. Wealth vs. debt, material vs. spiritual, nourishment vs. loss, food vs. elimination, life vs. death. As the shadow nodes pass through these two signs in the coming 1.5 years, expect these themes to be highlighted in extreme ways. The planet is facing the extremes of life and death very acutely right now. The polarities of lightness and darkness will widen. It will be even more important than ever to declare your movement towards the light, life, that which is sustainable for your body, spirit, and for life on Earth. This is a powerful cycle to stay grounded in truth, body, Nature, and that which has lineage and integrity. Align with Natural Laws, the wisdom of the Earth, that which supports life. Remember that the nature of both Rahu and Ketu are extremes. They highlight our shadows to us so that we can actually see them. Expect material themes to amplify, while at the same time spiritual awakening to come to the forefront. The nodes express themselves suddenly, and in shocking ways- for better or worse. Ketu brings trauma, loss, and disconnection with him, while Rahu offers confusion, uncertainty and doubt. Ketu awakens us from the slumber that is Rahu. This is a cycle that can intensify binaries, polarities, opposing views, clashing dogmas, and extreme imbalances. We have already been seeing this in our world very clearly, but this transit will intensify these extremes. On a personal level, that which supports balance, integration, embodiment, and aligning with the middle way, will bring more harmony into life and body. Finding harmony between the spiritual and material realms will be nonnegotiable in the months ahead. Does your way of making money sustain you? Does it sustain the planet? Are you aligned with dharma or adharma? Are you moving in a direction that supports life or death? It's time to deconstruct, decolonize, destroy and dismantle the systems of harm that move us further away from sustainability and life force. This extreme cycle of polarities can pave the way for something new, more sustainable, but it will require each one of us playing our part. Awaken from your slumber and the shadows that keep you in lack. It's time to move forward in a big way towards your dreams, desires, joy, and inner wisdom. When you hide your gifts, you help no one. When you hide from your dharmic path, you are hiding from the ancestors and the well being of the whole planet. We are now at an extreme turning point on this planet. This is the crossroads. We have choices to make- for ourselves, our bodies, the land, the environment, the home we call Earth, each other. These choices impact the ancestors and future generations. What is sustainable? What is not? What supports peacefulness and love? What instigates binaries and hatred? We have decisions to make. Hard lines to draw in the ground. What is acceptable behavior as humans, and what is causing more harm and suffering? Right now, we have actions to take, postures to assume, stances to be firm in. It is no longer acceptable to be silent, numb, avoidant. We have decisions to make about the future that must be made today. Do you move in the direction of life? Do you support the life of this planet? Are you creating a way of life that supports the future of all humans and the land? The Rahu and Ketu cycle ahead is one that will force us to confront the shadows we have not been willing to face before. Challenges and loss are inevitable. Suffering is optional. This is a powerful time to get creative. Innovate, co-create, think outside the box, move towards your dreams and desires. Align with dharma and the purpose of your soul. Be mindful of getting lost, tangled, or immersed in extremes. Where can you find solid ground? What is your truth? What does your body tell you about landing, support, nourishment? What is real, and what is an illusion? Are you in right relationship with money and the material world? What are you creating for your life, for this planet? Are you integrating your spiritual and material realities? Are your desires running away with you? Stay connected to your inner wisdom, even as the outer world appears to go into chaos. Move closer to dharma, the ultimate integration of spiritual and material realms. Now is the time to be brutally honest with yourself and your path. Weed out what is not moving you towards nourishment and joy. You are being asked to refocus on your dharma and not get lost in the darkness. During this major planetary transit, clarify what truly matters for your soul, and what needs your full attention and intention. If it doesn't move you closer to your soul purpose in life, it is likely adharma. Everything besides dharma is a waste of time and energy. Rahu in Taurus: Rahu transiting Mrigashirsha Nakshatra: September 23rd, 2020 to January 27th, 2021 Mrigashirsha is a soft and gentle nakshatra that reminds us to move towards the nourishment in life. Seek resources that support joy, nourishment and life force! The symbol of this constellation is a deer head and antlers, ruled by Soma. Herd animals, like deer, are constantly moving in the direction of a reliable food source. They move en masse towards the greener grass, safety, nourishment and fresh water. They move away from predators and are highly alert to challenges. Be like a deer and listen carefully. Are you alert and aware? Are you being proactive?Difficulties are a reminder to adjust and re-prioritize. Do your actions and choices support nourishment? Are you moving in a direction that supports life and joy? Are you moving towards your purpose in life or away from it? Rahu brings insatiable desires, confusion and questioning. Let the nourishment guide you and don’t get stuck in the doubt. This is a powerful time for growth and abundance. Use your energy wisely. Rahu transiting Rohini Nakshatra: January 27th, 2020 to October 5th, 2021 As Rahu moves through Rohini, you have the ability to create something new for yourself and your life. This is the most powerful constellation for creation, creativity and bringing desires into tangible form. Rohini is a fixed constellation, which offers stable results and dharmic support. Now is the time to make your dreams a reality and take the necessary action steps to manifest it into form. The nature of Rahu is to create extremes and doubt. Are you in right-relationship with your dreams, goals, desires? Is there a balance, harmony and right action with your desires? Get focused on the direction you are going in life. Make your dreams a priority and start creating a life you love! What brings you joy? What are you passionate about? What moves you closer to sustainable nourishment? Say yes to your creativity! What are you creating for your one, precious life? Rahu transiting Krittika Nakshatra: October 5th, 2021 to April 12th, 2022 A mixture of outcomes can occur with this portion of the sky. Agni rules this constellation. He supports transformational fire that supports life- in body and Nature. Fire removes excess and transforms matter into new forms. In this process of purification and clearing away excess, what remains is only the essential. Use this time to get clear, focused and aligned with your truth, power and purpose. Clear away the excess on all levels of life. If it doesn’t support dharma, get rid of it. Wherever there is excess that is not life supportive, you will be asked to purge it. Be prepared for loss, release and letting go in this cycle. With Rahu transiting this portion of the sky, the release could be extreme. Stay connected to your truth, inner wisdom, the light within. Let this light lead the way and don’t lose your focus. What is essential for your life path and purpose? What is in the way of your dharmic focus? What needs to be cut and cleared so you have space for your purpose and passion? Are you hiding behind the excess? Ketu in Scorpio: Ketu transiting Jyestha Nakshatra: September 23rd, 2020 to June 1st, 2021 Ketu illuminates and clarifies, supporting liberation. As he transits through the powerful constellation of Jyestha, expect powerful insights and truths coming to the light. Indra is king of the gods and rules over the senses and life force energy. He likes control of the bodily senses and its urges. Meditation, health and wellness routines, eating green foods, as well as spiritual alignment will be supported at this time. This constellation can be very serious as well as sharp and dreadful. It cuts, clears and destroys in dramatic ways. This is a reminder to move into right relationship with your spiritual path and purpose. Adharma won’t be tolerated by Indra and he will make that known with forcefulness. Pay attention to what is not in alignment with your dharmic path. Clear the mind of excess clutter, align with the wisdom of Nature, refocus your attention and intention on what truly matters. Listen to the call of your Spirit. Where are you distracted or misaligned? Where are you misusing your life force energy? How can you re-prioritize and adjust your routine, spiritual practices, and your dharmic focus? Ketu transiting Anuradha Nakshatra: June 1st, 2021 to February 8th, 2022 This constellation is soft and mild, which supports gentleness and compassion with self and others. A powerful transformation is taking place right now that can yield harmonious results. Friendships, alliances, and allies are even more important during this cycle. Do you have a solid support team in place? Honor all the steps that you’ve taken so far and acknowledge the success you’ve achieved. This is a powerful moment of pause and reflection for your path. Make necessary adjustments and keep moving towards the nourishment, support, and wisdom that feels good. Celebrate your successes and keep growing! Align with the details, precision, and focus necessary to get lasting results, but don’t get lost in perfectionism and over-achieving. Self love is vital right now. Are you asking for your needs to be met clearly? Where are you getting stuck in self harm? What feels good and nourishing on your path and in your body? What needs to be released, removed or transformed into something different? Ketu transiting Vishaka Nakshatra: February 8th, 2022 to April 12th, 2022 This constellation has a dual rulership with Indra and Agni. There is a duality present with this portion of the sky, but also a co-creation process. This is a powerful time to strengthen alliances, support systems, grow your team, and gather more guidance for your path. No one succeeds alone! This constellation is a powerful reminder of what we can accomplish when we join forces with supportive guidance. Even more important is the integration and balance of duality, and opposing forces. The need for harmony of both material and spiritual realms will strengthen at this time. Strengthen the ability to harmonize spiritual and material desires. Are you honoring both equally? Do you have guidance for both spiritual and material realms? Are you integrating spiritual and physical bodies intentionally? Where are you imbalanced or lop-sided? 2020/2021 Sidereal Horoscopes: Pre purchase my 2021 Moon Wisdom + Creative Ritual Calendar.
