August New Moon Wisdom

8/19/2020

August New Moon

As of Sunday, a two year Mars cycle has ended. He is making some unusual movements in the coming months, navigating openings and closings repeatedly. Mars is the planet of action, focus, courage- and his fiery ways support goals and accomplishments. He has newly entered Aries, sitting in the gap between endings and beginning for an extended stay.

Normally, Mars transits are roughly two months in length, but Mars will retrograde in Aries on September 9th and re-enter Pisces on October 4th. During this retrograde cycle, he will retrace his steps through Pisces until the end of the year.

Notice what themes have emerged for you over the past two months as you will be asked to re-visit these steps from October to December once again. There may be a lack of clarity and some uncertainty arriving with this cycle, so pay attention to what is feeling good and what needs to be released once and for all.

Mars will go direct in Pisces on November 13th and will re-enter Aries on December 24th. During the coming months, he will usher in themes of opening and closing, loss and arrivals. Look for fresh starts, renewal, opening and beginnings once he enters Aries again as 2021 arrives.

This unusual Mars transit will directly impact the Mars ruled signs of Aries and Scorpio the most. Those who are highly influenced by Mars in their natal chart, or running a Mars Maha Dasha, should pay close attention as well. Notice where Mars is located in your natal chart and what houses he will be moving through as he navigates Pisces and Aries throughout the rest of the year.

Currently, all three gandantas, or sacred gaps, are open. These are junction points between water and fire in the zodiac. When a planet transits through these spiritual junction points, it experiences a major transformation and uprooting process. Often big life changes happen with these junctions. They are also considered extremely spiritual because they uproot blockages on the psycho-emotional body levels.

Now that Mars has leaped into Aries, he is transiting the first of three gandantas in the zodiac. This ushers in fresh starts and rejuvenation. Sun and Mercury have also just moved to the second gandanta of the zodiac, Magha. This spiritual portion of the sky is directly connected to the ancestors, power, and ego. Pay attention to what needs to transform in relationship to your power, masculine and purpose.

Ketu has been transiting the third gandanta, Mula, for over a year now. This 1.5 year transit ends on September 23rd when Ketu shifts into Scorpio and Rahu moves to Taurus. As a planet leaves a house, it tends to intensify. Mula nakshatra can clear the path for dharma, or present major obstacles that hinder the path. Are you moving closer to your soul purpose right now, or further away?

With all three gandantas wide open right now, the coming weeks are especially vulnerable and delicate. It is not a good time to take unnecessary risks, however, it is an excellent time to do your inner work, transform shadow into light, and overcome obstacles on your spiritual path. Attend to your dharmic path and it will be time well spent.

Magha New Moon

Moon completely empties on the 18th at 20:42 MT while transiting Leo and Magha nakshatra. Sun, Moon, and Mars are all in tight conjunction in Magha nakshatra at this time. The cycle ahead is asking you to be more vigilant with your power- how you use it, why you use it, what it means for you. Are you in right relationship with your masculine, power source, and inner strength?

Magha nakshatra is considered a gandanta. One of three gaps in the zodiac between water and fire, notorious for uprooting the psycho-emotional bodies. Whatever unconscious entanglements are gripping you, it’s possible to loosen them and release them at this time. Be honest with your shadow work and diligently acknowledge personal mythology with your disempowerment, victim, use of strength and power in the cycle ahead.

Pitr rules the domain of Magha which automatically connects this portion of the sky with the ancestors. There is a direct correlation with father and father’s lineage here as well. Over 50% of your karma and grief work is connected to your ancestors. Magha brings lineage grief to the surface and will ask you to face your power, karma, and lineage issues directly.

This is an ideal time to pay homage and give gratitude to your ancestors. Feed them, bring offerings to your ancestor altar, notice symbols or message arriving directly from Spirit. Give your blessings to those who have come before, as well as the gifts they have shared with you. After all, you would not be here without them.

Where do you feel connected to your ancestors and your lineage? Where do you feel disconnected? In what ways are you creating connections with your ancestors and building a relationship with them? How do the ancestors show up for you and what messages do they share?

Here Are Six Ways to Feed Your Ancestors

Wishing you a clear and aligned cycle ahead,

Can You Answer These Five Questions?

8/11/2020

0 Comments

Jyotish is a Sanskrit word that translates as the study of light (Jyoti means light).

Rooted in a tradition that can be traced back thousands of years, Jyotish has a very long history of being a tool of self discovery and awakening.

For thousands of years, Jyotish has been used as a powerful tool for clarifying dharma. The purpose of Jyotish has always been to keep the soul connected to its purpose so it does not lose sight of how to awaken in this lifetime. It's so easy to get lost, distracted, and unclear with so much maya (illusion) in the body. If used properly, Jyotish supports clarity and understanding so the light of the soul can be illuminated.

If You Can Answer These Five Questions,
You Can Clarify Your Dharma.

Do you have an accurate birth time?

An exact birth time is vital for creating an accurate jyotish chart. This means you know the exact timing of your birth, location, and date. Your jyotish chart is a map of the eastern horizon at the time of your birth. This map indicates your souls karma in this lifetime.

Can you identify your rising sign?

Your rising sign, or ascendant, determines the overall structure of your entire birth chart. If you can identify your rising sign, you can clarify the other important parts of the chart. Your ascendant shares a lot about you as a person and how you view the world.

Can you identify the twelve houses of the jyotish chart?

Every house has a very specific meaning and purpose. Each house has a direct connection to your body and life experiences. Knowing the houses and their meanings is vital for unpacking your purpose and path.

Do you know what the twelve signs of the zodiac are?

If you can identify the twelve signs of the zodiac, you can clarify important layers and themes of your jyotish chart. Understanding the signs and where they live in your chart is important when unpacking your houses and planetary expressions.

Can you locate the nine planets in your chart?

The flavors of the planets and where they live in your jyotish chart give a lot of valuable information to you about who you are and how you experience the world. The subtleties and nuances of their placements offer valuable details about your path and purpose in this life time.

Studying your jyotish chart is an essential tool for understanding your dharmic path.

The Wisdom of Rahu and Ketu ~for your Dharmic Path

The Wisdom of Rahu and Ketu
~for Your Dharmic Path

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.

This is What your Karma Tells You About Your Dharma

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)?

Join My Upcoming Jyotish Masterclass

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?
What am I clinging to and unable to let go of?

HOW PREPARED ARE YOU FOR THIS?!

5/12/2020

How Prepared Are You For This?

Just after the May full Moon, an unusual series of retrograde planets kicks off- sparking many months of re-balancing, clean up, intensification, and shadow work.

Two of the most important planets, Saturn and Jupiter, have lengthy retrogrades starting this month- which will bring lasting changes and important insights for life and purpose. Because they are both slow moving, their impact is much more powerful.

Saturn retrogrades for five months in Capricorn, starting on May 10th. He won't go direct until end of September. This is an important time to clean up grief, structure, support, systems, and your dharmic offerings- or career if you are not sharing your dharmic gifts. Saturn doesn't tolerate excess or messiness so clean up the disorder in your life and start simplifying!

Jupiter is currently in Capricorn as well, beginning his retrograde motion on May 13th, returning to his own sign Sagittarius on June 29th. He continues to move in reverse until mid September. Whatever you missed these past months on your dharmic path, Jupiter will be requesting more of your awareness this time around.

This Jupiter retrograde is a vital transit for your path and purpose, for spirituality, and cleaning up impurities in your life. You will need more support, focused guidance, and a very clear intention for this next phase. Don't make the mistake of staying stuck where you are and refusing to take effective action. This transit is asking you to take a different approach in order for very different results. This opportunity won't come again. Jupiter does not tolerate adharma, so notice where he is nudging you to align more fully with your dharmic path.

Venus starts his return process on May 13th, continuing his transit through his own sign, Taurus. He will retrograde until June 25th, offering an unusually lengthy transit through one of his favorite signs. He won't enter Gemini until July 31st.

All retrograde planets are asking us to pay closer attention and attend to parts of ourselves and our lives that are challenged or imbalanced. Venus will be asking you to focus on the material world- finances, nourishment, wealth, speaking, manifesting, bringing desires into form. Relationships, love, and sensuality will request attention as well. What needs to change in order for you to feel more nourished in your life?

Later in June Mercury will retrograde as well. For a short time, four planets will be moving in reverse. Retrograde planets act like the shadow nodes Rahu and Ketu. That means they bring extremes, chaos, distortion, and intensification.

Be mindful that things often have to intensify so we can see them more fully. Wherever we've been ignoring the truth, bypassing or avoiding reality, the intensification can help us re-focus and re-align with more clarity and insight.

Notice where you are receiving a pinch in your life and take effective action. It's an important time to make necessary adjustments, and make new choices that support the outcome you desire. Rarely do we get such a powerful opportunity to clean up all areas of our life simultaneously. Thanks to Saturn, Jupiter, Venus and even Mercury, you will be asked to do many layers of clean up at the same time. Be vigilant!

Jupiter in Sagittarius: Seeking Spiritual Balance and Support + Horoscopes

10/30/2019

2 Comments

Normally, Jupiter's transits are a year long, but this year-long transit of Jupiter moving through Sagittarius is unusual and not straight forward. Sagittarius is Jupiter's most balanced transit, however, he must contend with Saturn and Ketu for the majority of his passage through his favorite fire sign. Sadly, a large part of this transit is cut short as Jupiter enters his debilitation sign for several months. Unfortunately, we won't get the full benefits of Jupiter in his most balanced, comfortable placement, however, there are still many spiritual benefits that we can look forward to.

As Jupiter lands in Sagittarius on November 4th, he enters the challenging gandanta of Mula nakshatra while also joining Saturn and Ketu in this sign. Expect inevitable restructuring, contraction, losses and grief thanks to Saturn and Ketu. There will be clearing and releasing taking place, which can ultimately lead to more gains further down the road. Remember that Jupiter wants to purify, so listen carefully to his requests. What are you making space for?

When Jupiter collides with Saturn and Ketu, a natural restructuring will be taking place. Saturn is the planet of grief and has an energy of contraction. Ketu is highly spiritual, disembodied, and shows us where we need more connection and awareness. Jupiter will be bringing the necessary wisdom and support that is needed to heal, grow, expand, and find more wholeness on your dharmic path.

Saturn will move to his own sign, Capricorn, on January 23rd, 2020 which will give Jupiter a little breathing room while he transits Sagittarius. However, Jupiter then shifts to Capricorn, his sign of debilitation, on March 29th, 2020, where he will have to contend with Saturn once again- while feeling the pinch of debilitation simultaneously. This 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.

Once Jupiter lands in Capricorn and goes debilitated, then goes retrograde on May 14th, a reversal will take place called Neecha Bhanga. A debilitated planet that goes into retrograde motion is said to become exalted- almost. This will strengthen the effect of Jupiter and will offer more support while he moves through Capricorn, however, it's not a complete cancellation. I've found personally that much of the impact of the debilitation can still be felt- so be mindful that this is still a delicate transit.

Sagittarius is a fire sign that is deeply connected to spiritual desires. As the number nine, it naturally reflects the wisdom of the 9th house of dharma. Symbolized by an archer pulling his arrow back, this sign needs to remember to take action, not just prepare. There is a tendency for "over-preparation" with this sign, rather than taking focused, right-action. Notice where you are causing delays, creating obstructions, resisting forward momentum. The support will be here for you to move forward, but you must take the steps to make it happen. This sign wants fairness and justice, as well as truth. The shadow side to this sign is dogma, puritanical beliefs and ideals.

Jupiter in Sagittarius: November 4th, 2019 to November 19th, 2020:

Moves to Capricorn on March 29th, 2020
Retrograde May 14th, 2020
Moves back to Sagittarius on June 29th, 2020
Goes direct on September 12th, 2020

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.

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 can naturally offer more gains, expansion and support on your spiritual path. This can be an especially powerful time for your dharmic path as Sagittarius naturally pulls from the 9th house of dharma. 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 likely be felt as he moves through Mula nakshatra and goes debilitated in Capricorn.

November 4th, 2019 to January 4th, 2020: Jupiter in Mula Nakshtra

This is a time of powerful restructuring, uprooting and change. Mula is a gandanta- a gap between water and fire- notorious for uprooting on the psycho-emotional body levels. Ruled by the dark goddess, Nirrti, this cycle is especially important for your dharmic path. Are you making choices that move you closer to dharma or further away from it?

Address self sabotage, resistance to your growth, and the neglect of your souls purpose. You may experience challenges, obstructions, or delays on your dharmic path. Gather the support, guidance, resources and tools you need to move forward with more clarity and focus. Don't lose sight of your goals, disires and spiritual intentions. Seek spiritual insights and wisdom, as well as deeper self trust. What needs to change once and for all- so you can finally move forward with more ease and gentleness? A clearing is taking place. Allow the release to take place. Next steps will be planting your seeds of desire and intention.

January 4th, 2020 to March 7th, 2020: Jupiter in PurvaAshada Nakshatra

As Jupiter moves through PurvaAshada, the water goddess, Apas, enlivens. This is a constellation of perspiration and effort- which results in fruitful rewards. This transits supports purification, release and transformation- especially on the phsyical body level. This is powerful time for cleansing and cleaning up your lifestyle and diet.

Seek resources, support, guidance and tools that help you purify your life. Where there is impurity, Jupiter will be requesting you do clean up. Clear away the excess, the impure, the malnourishment. Make space for your deepest desires, nourishment and support. It's time to up-level on all levels of your life! Use this time to water the vision, desires and goals you have for your life path and purpose. Focus your attention and actions on the direction you want to go and make the necessary space for what you truly desire.

March 7th, 2020 to July 26th, 2020: UttaraAshada Nakshatra

The intention of UttaraAshada is right action. Ruled by the Vishva Devas, goodness, truth, and purity are their desire. The "all gods" will support righteous behavior and choices, but adharma will not be tolerated. Are you in right-relationship with your dharmic path, your souls purpose? This constellation can be a powerful boon for the dharmic path, but if you are misaligned, you will be asked to clarify and refine your actions and choices. If you aren't getting the support you would like, it's time to take a different course of action. You are off path somehow. What needs to shift in order for more right-action?

What is your focus and intention right now? What are your desires? Clarify your direction and where you are putting your energy. What action steps move you closer to your goals, your dharmic path? What action steps are wasting your time and energy? Now is the time to get the lasting results you truly desire for your path and purpose. Don't hesitate and don't delay.

Horoscopes for Jupiter Transit:
November 4th, 2019 to November 19th, 2020

These Horoscopes will give you general themes for the year to come based on your rising sign. Horoscopes are based on your sidereal, or Jyotish rising sign, not your Western or Tropical sign. There is likely no correlation. You may also use with your sidereal Moon or Sun sign for extra insight.

Needing more support and guidance for the Jupiter cycle ahead?
Book a session with me here.

Aries: Your dharmic path has been going through major transformation and restructuring over the past year. You are being asked to make some very different choices on your path. Continue to notice where there is trauma, disconnection and disharmony with your choices, actions and behaviors. Are you resisting spiritual guidance and support? It's time to find more alignment with your true purpose and deeper needs. Get creative! Be courageous! Try something new! Move in the direction of your passion and purpose. As Jupiter shifts into your 9th house of Dharma, he brings more support, resources and guidance to help you clarify and affirm your path. Share your knowledge and wisdom in a new way. The good news is that Jupiter is leaving his most challenging transit through your 8th house, however, in the coming year he will be debilitated in your 10th house for a portion of the year, which causes challenges with your offering and visibility. Take note of the adjustments and changes that need to be made so that you can be seen and noticed more fully for your offerings. Growth and new wisdom is possible in this new phase so pay attention to your resistance and notice where you are refusing to grow. It's time for an upgrade.

Taurus: It's been a challenging year for you with lots of deep, inner changes. Fortunately, Saturn will be leaving your 8th house early 2020, which releases you from his most challenging transit. However, as Jupiter moves into Sagittarius, he enters your 8th house as well. Any planet that goes through the 8th house does not come out the same. You are going through immense transformation right now and it's important that you get the necessary support to help you move through this time. The 8th house is our unconscious terrain, which inevitably digs up our own darkness and undigested emotions. This is a very important time for you to be doing your shadow work, trauma work, and deep spiritual awakening. As Jupiter moves to your 8th house, seek new support, guidance and resources to help you move through this powerful transformation process. When Jupiter enters your 9th house of dharma, he goes debilitated. Be mindful of your relationship with authority figures, spiritual guides and gurus. Are you aligning with what you need? Are you refusing the support you desperately need? Turn the mud of the 8th house into the necessary knowledge and wisdom for your dharmic path. Be willing to face your fear so that you have more space for the joy. I highly recommend a Jupiter yagya for this transit to buffer the inevitable challenges.

Gemini: Self awareness is key right now. Focus on your inner growth and outer expansion. Relationships have been causing many challenges and delays, but soon the heaviness of Saturn will leave your 7th house, lightening things up a bit with relationships. However, early 2020, Saturn moves to his most challenging placement in your 8th house. The coming 2.5 years bring up very old, undigested grief- so get the support you need to transform your darkness into light. No planet that goes through the 8th house comes out the same. I highly recommend getting a Saturn yagya for this transit to buffer the inevitable challenges. The good news is that Jupiter entering your 7th house offers more solid support and stability- especially within relationships. Gather what you need for more holding, strength and community in the coming months. Seek the spiritual support and guidance that will help you navigate the cycle ahead. Clarify boundaries, relationship needs and work with the wisdom of your pelvis. When Jupiter dips into your 8th house for part of 2020, this will present some very real vulnerability. It's vital that you do your grief work at this time and get a yagya for Jupiter as well. This does not have to be a horrible year, but you do need to be diligent and honest with your challenges and needs, while seeking the right kind of support for your healing and transformation. Be vigilant!

Cancer: Saturn and Ketu have been living in your 6th house of healing for the past year and Jupiter will join them as he enters Sagittarius. This provides a new strength and wisdom to your support team, providing new wisdom, insight and clarity with your healing and inner guidance. If you are on a healing path, or a healer, this cycle will be especially beneficial to you as you deepen your understanding and depth. Expect your dharmic path to clarify and strengthen as well. Saturn shifts to your 7th house early 2020, which brings more solid support into your life, but when Jupiter enters Capricorn as well, you may feel vulnerability and lack of support on some level. Seek balance with relationships, your community and support team. Focus on your healing and health in the coming cycle and gather new resources, support and guidance for your path and purpose. This can be a time of more balance and harmony with your self and others. Work on releasing bad habits, self sabotage behaviors and the parts of yourself that keep you stuck in lack and malnourishment. Clear away the blockages and make space for more of what you need and want. Watch out for stagnation in your gut and digestion.

Leo: Jupiter shifts into your 5th house as he enters Capricorn, joining Saturn and Ketu here for part of his transit. It's been a challenging time for your children, joy, and sense of power over the past year, but Jupiter will provide new insight, wisdom and support moving forward. His balance and resources can offer you new awareness and focus for your path and purpose so use it wisely. Pay attention to your upper gut and clear and release stagnation with digestion. Saturn shifts to your 6th house early 2020 which means doing some grief work around bad habits and poor choices. When Jupiter moves to Capricorn and becomes debilitated, this reminder is even more important. Vulnerability and lack of support may cause challenges so pay attention to where you are self sabotaging and resisting the support and guidance you need. The coming cycle will require deeper healing, wisdom and resources for you so don't neglect your path and growth. Focus on where you want to go and gather what you need to get you there.

Virgo: You've had so much clearing and releasing taking place in your heart center this past year that you now have space for something new. The wisdom and nourishment of Jupiter is moving into your 4th house of heart, home, land and mother so use the coming transit to strengthen your emotional body and heart wisdom. As Saturn shifts to your 5th house of children and power, you will need to do some grief work in this area of your life. Once Jupiter enters your 5th house and goes debilitated, this area of your life will require you to listen more fully and deepen your harvest. What are you learning about your relationship with power? How is your heart wisdom supporting your inner wisdom? Use this time to clear the trauma that has been keeping you disconnected from your heart, emotions and mother. This pain is keeping you stuck in malnourshment and instability. It's time to heal, transform and awaken your inner wisdom and listen to your emotional body more fully. Use this wisdom to support your offering, deepen your path, and clarify your purpose in this world.

Libra: This is a time of strengthening your creativity and courage so that your dharmic path can deepen. Over the past year, you have been experiencing challenges with your creativity, hands, and courage- which has directly impacted your dharmc path. A restructuring has been taking place, clearing space for something new. Now that Jupiter is arriving in your 3rd house, more balance, support, resources and guidance can arrive. This will help challenges with authority figures, your support team, and spiritual growth as well. Saturn moves to your 4th house early 2020, requiring you to do some very concentrated grief work. Lean closer to your emotional body wisdom. As Jupiter moves into debilitation in your 4th house, the wisdom of your emotional body will require even more attention and intention. Challenges with heart, home, mother, land and property will require your focus so don't be neglectful. The wisdom surfacing can directly support your offering in this world so pay attention to what you are learning and how you want to share this with others. It's time to create something new. Be courageous.

Scorpio: Jupiter is leaving one of his most powerful transits for you, but the good news is he will be in his own sign for at least part of his new cycle- which directly impacts your sense of nourishment. The expansion you've been experiencing this past year will continue to blossom and support your finances, wealth and resources. However, this comes with restructuring and necessary changes. Once Saturn shifts out of your 2nd house and into Capricorn, you will feel even more lightening up in your pocket book, but the restructuring continues throughout this coming year. It's time to make some very real changes with your finances and how you deal with your money, as well as your relationship with food and sustenance. When Jupiter enters Capricorn and goes debilitated in your 3rd house with Saturn, your courage will faulter- which impacts your dharmic path. Be mindful of this inner cycle and what needs to change in order for you to return to a new sense of strength and self. You are making space to receive a whole new level of nourishment and creativity, but some clearing and restructuring must take place first. Be diligent with clearing out the old and making space for the new. It's time for a deeper sense of nourishment in your life and body. Use this cycle to upgrade your speech, voice, diet, and money.

Sagittarius: It's time for you to do some celebration as Jupiter lands in your first house in his own sign. You've come full circle and a 12 year Jupiter cycle is now finally complete. As Jupiter arrives in your head, expansion, possibility, and hope awaken. Maybe it's time to refocus your time and energy in a new direction? As Saturn moves to your 2nd house early 2020, even more ease and gentleness arrive for you at long last. For part of the coming cycle, Jupiter will be debilitated in your 2nd house with Saturn so be mindful of your finances and don't overspend. Upgrade your diet and eating habits and don't overindulge on sweets, alcohol, bad food, etc. This is a time best used for changing your relationship with nourishment in general. With Jupiter in your 1st house for part of the coming year, focus on expansion, growth and new wisdom. Relationships, children and your dharmic path all receive the support and guidance of Jupiter so focus on the positive and honor this powerful new chapter awakening for you and your life!

Capricorn: Layers of closure, release and emptying are strengthing for you. Saturn's long, belabored 30 year transit through your chart is starting anew as he enters Capricorn early 2020. This will feel like a fresh start for you on many levels, but some final clean up and release is necessary before you can hit refresh. Do your grief work and support the release process. A very spiritual transformation is taking place for you as Jupiter arrives in Sagittarius. Awaken the support and guidance of your ancestors and deepen your relationship with alone time, solace and retreat. Get comfortable with meditation and your dreams- and use them to strengthen your dharmic path. When Jupiter goes debilitated in Capricorn for a portion of 2020, your relationship with vulnerability and insecurity requires some attention. You will need to rely on your relationships, community and support team in new ways. Allow yourself to be supported and notice where you resist being held, seen and supported. Part of your support team is spirit, so don't neglect the relationship with your ancestors and spirit guides. Let them be your greatest resource.

Aquarius: Gains are arriving at long last. Have you made space for them? How much room have you created for receiving the nourishment you desire? Focus some attention on clearing and releasing, so you can benefit from the naturally beneficial transit of Jupiter moving through your 11th house in his own sign of Sagittarius. As Saturn shifts to your 12th house, early 2020, even more ease is created in your house of gains. Some necessary restrucutring needs to be done still, so don't neglect the clearing, transformation and release that is being asked of you. When Jupiter hits your 12th house and goes debiliated, much of this release work will become more clear and poignant. Let spirit and your ancestors guide you. Take time for rest, solace and meditation. Gains are likely as Jupiter moves through Sagittarius, so be diligent with your manifestation skills and be clear in what you are asking for. If you make space for it, you will be able to receive it more easily.

Pisces: You've had a powerful year of growth and expansion on your dharmic path and now it's time to bring this learning into action. You are in a process of restructuring your offering to this world, but as Jupiter shifts into your 10th house, more support and wisdom will arrive to help you create something new. Saturn shifts to your 11th house of gains early 2020, requiring you to focus on release, letting go and loss. This is part of the necessary clearing and new structure that must be implemented in order for the new gains to arrive. What needs to change and transform? What is the direction you want to move in? What are you creating for your new offering in this world? During part of this transit, Jupiter will be debilitated in your 11th house with Saturn. This is a delicate time for your growth and receiving. Be diligent and mindful with the necessary clearing, shifts and simplicity that are being asked of you. Cut, clear, delete. Refocus and realign with what truly matters to you. Strengthen your passion and purpose. It's time to create a whole new offering in this world.

My Ketu Maha Dasha Experience and Why I'm Celebrating Now.

9/9/2019

2 Comments

There was no way I could have predicted exactly how the last seven years of my Ketu Maha Dasha would impact me. During this seven year cycle, I've also been navigating my second Sade Sati. When I look back over this period of time now, I don't even feel like the same person. It feels like a life time ago.

Ketu Maha dasha and Sade Sati have been nothing short of a transition point for me, a major, life-altering pivot. One that I endured kicking and screaming for the most part. I don't share my story to scare anyone, but being honest about our life experiences is vital for making the most out of any cycle we move through. This is also the brilliance of Jyotish- a map of sorts to help us see- even if we don't want to see it.

I've spent my entire life so far in very challenging dasha cycles. Born into nineteen years of grief thanks to Saturn Maha Dasha. During that time my birth father died tragically- which set me up for a life time of unpacking grief I couldn't possibly understand at one year of age. Then onto 17 years of Mercury- which essentially became a spiritual cycle, but only after intense darkness, addiction, turmoil and self hatred that almost killed me. The darkness that emerged through this process was the catalyst for deeper self healing and it helped me gather more tools for my growth process.

Days into my seven year Ketu Maha dasha, my mother called me to share that she had been diagnosed with a brain tumor. The shocking ways of Ketu were already well under way. He takes no prisoners and forces change in dramatic, life altering ways. You can not prepare for Ketu.

To say that "timing is everything" would be an understatement. Ketu would take my mother from me three weeks later- only days after Maha Navaratri 2012, during a powerful full Moon. My life would never be the same. To this day, I am still sifting and sorting through the rubble, fumbling my way through the grief process that came from this heart rupture.

I learned very quickly how Ketu operates. His agenda is to take our attachments- with or without willingness. The stronger the attachment, the greater the pain, trauma, loss. What I didn't realize at the time is just how much grief I would be moving through. Undigested, overwhelming, endless grief. Grief from the first half of my life. Grief from my previous life times. Grief from my mother. Grief from my father. Grief from my family members still alive. Grief from society, the land, the ancestors. So many layers of grief. Ketu brought the movement, the clearing, the space. He has brought my grief to the surface, helped it move and release, while supporting something new to emerge. Not what I wanted exactly, nor what I had envisioned, but space is what he's gifted me with. Plenty of space.

In the days, months and years after my mom's passing, I had no ground. I lost my grounding cord, my root chakra (what I had thought was my root anyway). While my connection to Spirit strengthened, my connection to body was completely dismantled and destroyed. I had nothing material to support me. I realized that Mercury Maha Dasha had left me with some spiritual resources but nothing much material. I had no job, no friends, no purpose, very little family, no hope for the future, no partner or children. I only had my two dogs, was living in Texas, in an environment that didn't support me, with no community. So I started building. Out of desperation, out of lack, out of emptiness. Brick by brick. Need by need. This is what Ketu supports. A rebuilding, a starting over.

From bed, in my pajamas, in between sobbing and sleep, I started to build my business online. I wrote blog posts, I did jyotish sessions, I shared my thoughts on grief. Not as an expert or someone with all the answers. I shared what was real for me, what I was personally experiencing. (This is now what I call your authentic Dharmic offering).

I noticed the clients who were coming to me all had challenges with grief, loss, pain of some sort. It was manifesting in their body and I could see the reason for this in their jyotish chart. I started to feel a sense of purpose. Something that helped me move beyond my own grief. When I helped someone else with insights for their healing path, suddenly life didn't seem quite so dire. One foot in front of the other, one day at a time, I strengthened my dharmic path, grew my dharmic business, created an offering for this world that filled my heart with joy, passion, nourishment.

Despite the swiftness of Ketu in certain areas of my life, the building and growth of my dharmic path has been slow and incremental. For nearly a decade now, I have shared my wisdom authentically. There have been no shortages of insights thanks to Ketu. No shortage of clarity and painful realizations. The nature of Ketu can peel back layers of illusion instantaneously- which is normally not very comfortable. I've used these insights courageously and thankfully Ketu has gifted me as a result.

This week is another major life pivot for me. My 20 year Venus Maha Dasha begins. Part of me is excited and ready to leave Ketu. The rest of me is a bit apprehensive to make the shift based on Ketu's traumatic start. We feel these dasha shifts months in advance and some of the insights I've already experienced are directly related to Venus. After all of the clearing, all of the space, all of the letting go, I have room to invite in the blessings and nourishment of Venus. This is the growth phase of my life that has not yet been supported by my previous dashas.

Through these tumultuous seven years of Ketu, life has gone through many forms, shapes and cycles. There's been immense loss and letting go. Now at the end of this life changing dasha cycle, I have created a life that truly nourishes me. I didn't think I'd end up in the mountains of Colorado surrounded by nature and animals. I couldn't have imagined that I would have two dogs, a cat and a horse, nor the cottage of my dreams with an aspen grove in the backyard. I couldn't have imagined the amazing clients I work with daily- helping sensitive gifted women awaken their own dharmic dreams and create success in their own lives. I couldn't have imagined the grounding in my body, the strengthening roots and branches that have grown as a result of planting in the mountains. After all the clearing, Ketu has gifted me with the nourishment I've been seeking all my life. It takes loss, in order to make space for the new.

With Venus Maha Dasha arriving, there is a desire for more expansion, growth, connection these days. Part of this is due to Venus Maha Dasha, and part of it is because I used the last seven years to clear and release the grief that has been keeping me stuck. It feels timely to create an offering for my mother, for the Divine Mothers, for celebrating the path of Dharma.

As a way to mark this powerful transition point in my own life, I've created a
Navaratri Dharma Summit. My work is dharmic, for dharma, for spiritual evolution. Navaratri has been a meaningful celebration all my life. My mother's passing on Maha Navaratri created an even stronger connection to Navaratri for me. The Divine Feminine is in powerful transformation at this time of year, supporting our deep inner change. If we use this time with intention, Nature supports immense transformation, change and growth within us.

I am honored to create a powerful Navaratri offering that will support so many women on their dharmic paths. In the memory and legacy of my mother, The Dharma Summit is a powerful offering that has the potential to be a catalyst for women around the world.

Mark this immense life changing moment in time with the wisdom of Navaratri. I invite you to celebrate with me- as I shift into the next phase of my dharmic work. After seven years of Ketu, I'm ready to welcome the power of Venus. It's time for me to celebrate!

We are starting soon! Some amazing dharmic leaders will be joining me!

Looking forward to ushering in the fullness and wisdom of the Divine Feminine with you!

And of course, I will continue to share the gifts and wisdom of Venus with you in the coming years. Grateful to be walking with you and looking forward to sharing Maha Navaratri with you this year.

The Nine Phases of Your Dharmic Path.

9/2/2019

2 Comments

Awakening your dharmic path is not a linear process. It doesn't occur in a straight line or in a way that even seems logical. As a result, I often hear clients confused, frustrated, uncertain and fearful that their path is not unfolding properly. They doubt that they have found their dharmic path, which can often derail them from ever moving forward.

Do you ever have doubts? Do you doubt your gifts and wisdom? Do you doubt if you are on path, or off path? Do you doubt if the challenges you are facing are keeping you stuck and disconnected? Do you doubt if you're making progress?

It's important to realize that your dharmic path has many phases, steps and transformational experiences along the way. This is a life long process. You only have one soul purpose. Each phase of the journey is supporting the path as a whole. Each part of the journey is unique. If you know how to use each phase of the growth process, it can keep you connected to your path for the long term- and trust your steps.

Without the ability to trust your path, your gifts and wisdom, you can get lost in adharma- that which goes against dharma. Consciously choosing to connect with your path and purpose is key. This takes commitment and a willingness to show up- even when its hard.

What phase of your dharmic path are you in right now?

What phases of this journey have you already completed?

The Durga Phase of the Dharmic Path:

1) Challenge. This phase of the journey is often wrought with crisis, turmoil, grief, or hardship of some sort. When you are in a challenge portion of the process, it can be a powerful catalyst for major life change and growth. It can also keep you stuck for days, weeks, years, or lifetimes. Are you addicted to the turmoil and chaos? Or do you know how to use challenge as a life-changing catalyst? Every challenge has a gift. You must learn how to use challenge as a change agent- so that it becomes a resource for powerful growth.

2) Release. There is no possibility for gain without letting go of something. Release, loss, death are all necessary and vital parts of the transformation and healing process. When we let go of something, we are creating space. Space for something new. If you are not willing to let go and experience loss, you will never have the space to receive what you truly need and desire. One of the most powerful parts of the dharmic path is learning how to grieve and be in right relationship with your emotional body.

3) Resistance. Most people are afraid of powerful life change- even if it means life will be better than they can imagine. Fear keeps you resistant to moving forward, creating something new, manifesting your needs, allowing the nourishment to flow. Fear and resistance are one and the same. When you are not in right relationship with your fear, it will create resistance to moving forward, resistance to clarity, resistance to awakening your gifts and wisdom. One of the biggest forms of resistance I encounter with clients is a fear of success, a resistance to actually creating what they truly want in their lives. Resistance and fear can keep you stuck your entire life- unless you are willing to face it directly and awaken its gifts.

Lakshmi Phase of the Dharmic Path:

4) Growth. Sometimes you allow the growth to take place, sometimes the growth is forced upon you. Either way, growth is asking you to move in a different direction, to expand. I often tell clients to move in the direction of their nourishment. Whatever nourishes you will be life supporting. True dharma creates deep nourishment on all levels of life. Are you moving towards your nourishment or away from it? Growth and change go hand in hand. Don't resist your own growth.

5) Desire. All growth comes from some desire- conscious or unconscious. Your desires are powerful- and the key to manifestation. Desire is what brought you into human form and desire is what supports your evolution. Without desire there is no growth, change, transformation- or even healing. Let your desires be the spark that supports the life changing results you truly want. Make sure your action steps align with your desires. Desire is a good thing!

6) Abundance. When you are able to receive the nourishment that life has to offer, you will feel abundant. Receiving is key to feeling the abundance of Nature whether it's more vitality, money, love, nourishment, creativity or any of the other blessings of Lakshmi. Are you in right relationship with receiving? Does your body feel safe to receive the nourishment of life? Receiving can not be forced. Life sustaining nourishment comes when the body feels safe to receive. Always work on creating safety within- so that the body can naturally begin to receive the nourishment it truly needs. What helps you feel safe?

Saraswati Phase of the Dharmic Path:

7) Creativity. Ideas, imagination, and creativity are powerful forces of transformation and change. This entire existence was, and is, a result of creative life force energy. What are you creating in your life? Consciously direct your creative powers. Your immense human imagination is capable of creating whatever you desire. How are you using your creative powers? In order for your life path to unfold, you must be willing to honor your creativity, imagination and ideas with consistent action steps. Manifestation skills are directly connected to creativity and innovation.

8) Learning. The dharmic path requires a willingness to expand, learn, and grow. You must be willing to gather new insights, wisdom, tools and support along the way. Are you seeking out guidance for your path? Or are you trying to do it all alone? Acquiring wisdom and guidance for the journey is nonnegotiable, but you also must know when and how to trust yourself and your own inner wisdom. This requires balance with inner and outer seeking. What have you learned on your journey so far? Do you trust your inner wisdom, or are you still seeking all your answers outside of yourself? Dharma requires deep self trust and the ability to listen to your inner wisdom.

9) Connection. Dharma is not a lonely journey, meant to be done in isolation and no contact with others. You are a householder- meaning that your dharmic path includes others in some capacity. True dharma is reciprocal. When you share your gifts and wisdom with others, they benefit as well as you. Connection, co-creation, expansion, and relationship are vital for the path of dharma to fully blossom and unfold. When you are willing to share your light with others, the whole world becomes enlightened. You must be willing to touch lives in meaningful ways or your dharmic path will not unfold and grow- and neither will you! Connection supports your ability to awaken through learning and wisdom.

All parts of the dharmic path are important. You will move in and out of these phases in a non-linear way. You will circle back and through these steps over and over again along your life path. You may touch parts of this phase continuously throughout your journey, and revisit each phase more than once. The important thing is that you must keep moving on not get stuck.

Honor where you find yourself on the path right now, but continue to grow, change and transform. This requires seeking out guidance and support from those that understand the dharmic path- while also deepening your self trust and your own ability to hear your inner wisdom. Dharma requires skill in action, strengthening your gifts and wisdom- and sharing it with others so the whole world benefits.

Where do you find yourself in this process? What needs are surfacing? What is feeling nourishing and supportive? Where are you stuck or stagnant?

Don't forget to ask for help and be willing to try something new.
