The Designed Life

I’m so happy to have my new online friend turned IRL friend Sarah Kleist on the podcast today! Sarah is an actor, designer, web designer, and multi-passionate creative, and in our convo we explore what it really means to be a multi-hyphenate in today’s online entrepreneurial world.From holding multiple identities with confidence to using creativity as both a coping mechanism and a form of expression during uncertain times, Sarah shares how her career evolved from theater to web design during the pandemic, and how storytelling connects everything she creates.Together, we unpack visibility as a practice – not just for business growth, but as a way to expand self-expression, confidence, and presence in everyday life. We also dive into the relationship between creativity and joy, the power of showing up authentically, and why having fun might be the most underrated strategy for success.This episode is a reminder that your path doesn’t have to fit into one box—and that your art, in whatever form it takes, is enough.Connect with Sarah:Her websiteHer InstagramHer ThreadsHer Brand Photoshoot workshopMentioned:Alyssa LuiXanthe AppleyardConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

Q2 of 2026 feels like the season where what we’ve been planting begins to show us what’s actually growing.In this episode, I walk through the astrology of April, May, and June – moving through Aries, Taurus, and Gemini –and explore what this quarter asks of us collectively: clearer action, deeper discernment, and a stronger relationship to what truly nourishes us.We begin with the heat and activation of Aries season, where momentum returns and emotions can become important information, move into the grounding and restorative qualities of Taurus, and then enter the accelerating, idea-rich energy of Gemini as Uranus in Gemini opens an entirely new collective storyline.This quarter starts with some intensity, but by June there is real sweetness—more connection, more clarity, and moments that remind us what is worth caring for, building, and protecting.

After weeks of intense astrological build-up, the Spring Equinox opens the door to a new astrological year, and this one feels unmistakably different. With the Sun entering Aries and immediately activating Saturn and Neptune in Aries for the first time, we’re stepping into the seeding of an entirely new collective storyline around identity, leadership, and selfhood.If the last few weeks have felt intense or destabilizing, this season says: claim the new narrative. The spark has been lit, and now it’s time to consciously work with it.The final weeks of Aries season turn up the heat.What begins as a tender desire to protect something new within us quickly intensifies into a season of combustion, courage, confrontation, and recalibration. With Mars entering Aries, a powerful Aries New Moon, and multiple Mars–Saturn–Neptune activations, we’re navigating fire in its rawest form: motivation, anger, inspiration, frustration, and identity reckoning.This episode explores:The deeper meaning of Aries as initiatory fireThe Sun’s activation of the new Saturn–Neptune cycle in AriesMercury stationing direct on the North Node (a fated forward shift)A relationally rich Libra Full Moon at 12ºVenus entering Taurus and restoring sweetness, pleasure, and stabilityThe volatility of Mars–Uranus and Mars–NeptuneA highly charged Aries New Moon at 27°Mars conjunct Saturn: hitting the wallHow to work consciously with rage, inflammation, and blocked momentumThis is a season about learning how to handle heat – in your body, your relationships, and the collective – without letting it burn everything down.Time Stamps:00:07:59 Week 1 (March 20-21) – Fated Forward Shifts00:12:52 Week 2 (March-28) – New Storylines00:24:25 April 1 – Libra Full Moon00:39:56 Week 3 (March 29-April 4) – Navigating Fire00:53:00 Week 4 (April 5-11) – War of Ideals01:08:04 April 17 – Aries New Moon01:20:50 Week 5 (April 12-19) – Direct Your Motivation WiselyMentioned:Book a reading with me to make sense of this Aries season for yourselfSocial Change Ecosystem MapCultivating Safety EpisodeKarla McLarenConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

I’m so excited to share this conversation with cultural philosopher, strategist, and fascinating human, Chelsea Riffe ✨This episode is a deep dive into curiosity, original thinking, and what it means to develop your own philosophy in a world that constantly tells us what and how to think.We talk about why curiosity is being quietly trained out of us, how endless inputs (social media, AI, media cycles) can cloud our ability to think clearly, and why cultivating a distinct worldview might be one of the most valuable currencies of the next decade.Chelsea also shares the thinking behind her new program, Supernova – a modern philosophical salon for creative entrepreneurs who want to build ideas, frameworks, and schools of thought rather than just more “content.”This conversation is a statement for how and why allowing yourself to think a little more deeply (and a little more weirdly) might actually be the thing the world needs most right now.If you’ve been craving more depth, more nuance, and more meaningful conversations, this one is for you.Tune in today!Find Chelsea:Her podcastSupernovaPitch PerfectHer InstagramHer ThreadsMentioned:Social LifeConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

The meaning of what's come to be known as your "Big Three" is a bit illusive, so in tihs episode, I break down how to synthesize your Rising, Sun, and Moon in your natal chart as an entry point to deeper self-understanding.Rather than reducing astrology to personality stereotypes, I reframes these major placements as an energetic blueprint:Rising sign → your motivating life force and trajectorySun sign → your conscious identity and purposeMoon sign → how you nourish yourself so you can sustain it allThis episode is not about prescribing a career path or telling you who you “should” be. Instead, it offers a framework for energetic alignment – helping you understand what propels you, what you identify with, and what truly feeds you so your life feels less chaotic and more whole.I also include a few extra layers for nuance, so you'll learn how to mix in:The ruling planet of each placementThe house it lives inWhere Leo and Cancer fall in the chart (for the Sun and Moon)The companion Substack with visuals and breakdowns can be found here for further integration.Join the Orienting to Spring workshop!Mentioned:Book a reading with meKnow your Moon, know your comfort zoneHow to work with every moonEps 042: How to work with all phases of the moonConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

March is a powerful month, and much of that power comes from the lunations.This month activates the Pisces–Virgo axis, illuminating the ongoing eclipse dialogue between intuition, belief, imagination, and surrender (Pisces) and discernment, embodiment, systems, and practical care (Virgo). This axis teaches us how to zoom all the way out and all the way in — and how to let those perspectives inform one another.We open the month on March 3 with a Full Moon Eclipse at the South Node in Virgo at 12º. This eclipse is asking:Where are perfectionism, over-optimization, or self-criticism ready to be released?How have control, routine, or logic been used as substitutes for trust?What information is available through your body, intuition, and felt experience when clarity is unavailable?Later in the month, on March 18, we arrive at a New Moon in Pisces at 28º, closing eclipse season and opening a new chapter. This New Moon is seeding:A new belief system about what is possible for you and the collectiveA vision rooted in intuition, values, and compassionThe courage to act on a dream before you have all the proofThis lunation invites you to break old mental molds, flip limiting narratives, and root your future actions in what truly nourishes and matters.March reminds us: intuition is a resource, belief is a catalyst, and we are stepping into a new era of consciousness — one thought, one choice, one leap at a time.Reminder that my astrology consultations are $111 until March 21st!

Welcome Pisces season!Pisces season of 2026 is a PACKED season, friends! As a continuation of Aquarius season, we also have the continuation of eclipses, the official culmination of the Saturn-Neptune conjunction, a Mercury retrograde in Pisces, and Jupiter stationing direct. This season is messy, confusion, and ultimately asks us – what can you rely on when you don’t have all the information? What intuitive resources can you deepen into?This season will be pulling us in a lot of different directions, and we might end up very different on the other side.Themes of the weeksWeek 1 (2.18-2.21) – courageously dissolving boundaries and barriers to our identityWeek 2 (2.22-2.28) – destined confusionWeek 3 (3.1-3.7) – stretchy creative and intuitiveWeek 4 (3.8-3.14) – deeply needed nourishmentWeek 5 (3.15-3.20 – messy emotions and a new generative cycle beginsTune in to hear more about how each of these weeks will unfold, and the energy you can tap into to help direct your own creative cycles.Read more about this season via the corresponding Substack article.Key Dates:2.20 Saturn conjoins Neptune, first time since2.22 Venus trine Jupiter Rx2.26 Mercury stations Rx in Pisces2.27 Sun conjunct N Node, Mars square Uranus3.2 Mars enters Pisces3.3 Full Moon Eclipse Virgo 12º3.5 Sun trine Jupiter Rx3.6 Venus enters Aries3.7 Mercury Rx cazimi, Venus conjunct Neptune3.8 Venus conjunct Saturn3.10 Jupiter stations direct on exaltation degree in Cancer3.15 Mars conjunct Mercury Rx3.18 New Moon Pisces 28º sextile Uranus, Venus square Jupiter3.20 Sun enters Aries, Mercury stations direct in Pisces, Spring EquinoxMentioned:Book a reading with meNon-violent communication practiceEps 050 with Kayleigh MartinConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

Today I’m sharing an intimate, embodied conversation I had with somatic life coach Kayleigh Martin about connection, integration, and staying human in polarized times.What begins as a reflection on instant relational depth expands into a rich dialogue on somatics, trauma, lineage, power, and the radical act of weaving – rather than rejecting – the fragmented parts of ourselves.Kayleigh and I examine how unintegrated trauma lives in bodies and systems, and how returning to the body becomes a pathway for both personal and social transformation. Themes of burnout under capitalism, entrepreneurship as a somatic initiation, nervous system wisdom, and collective grief are held alongside reflections on disagreement, capacity, and mobilization – without collapsing into shutdown or disconnection.At its core, this conversation explores duality and wholeness: holding despair and delight at once, honoring the body’s intelligence, reclaiming “no” as an expansive and protective force, and reframing joy as a radical form of resourcing. Together, these threads point toward more integrated, compassionate ways of being – rooted in the body, widened in capacity, and alive to the full spectrum of human experience.Connect with Kayleigh:On instagram hereOn threads hereOn her podcast hereVia HavenOur episode on her podcastMentioned:Creative LivingSocial Change Ecosystem map by Deepa IyerEternal Sunshine of the Spotless MindConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

What creates safety?Safety is defined as: the condition of being protected from or unlikely to cause danger, risk, or injury.But what are the components that actually create a sense of safety in a person’s life? And how do we continue to create it in the midst of world that is constantly changing, and feeling less safe and secure.In this episode I discuss 5 main components that add to a experience of safety - physical, emotional, mental, relational -Being allowed to be vulnerableConsistent access to essential resourcesResiliency from conflictTrust produced by proof of actionBeing able to ask for and receive supportSuggestion for how to work with this episode:Choose just one of the five components listed above.Examine – how do you experience this component of safety in your life?

February is a powerful month – perhaps THE MOST powerful month of the year, and part of that power comes from the lunations.This month activates the Leo–Aquarius axis, spotlighting the tension and dialogue between individual identity, leadership, and self-expression (Leo) and collective responsibility, systems, and humanitarian vision (Aquarius).We open the month on February 1 with a Full Moon in Leo at 13º. This Full Moon is asking:How are your talents, creativity, leadership, and identity being used in service of the collective?Where can access be widened, structures reimagined, or generosity increased so more people can benefit?How do you remain fully valued without hoarding power or visibility?The we step into eclipse season with the February 17 New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aquarius at 28º – the first of a series of eclipses in Aquarius that will continue through 2028. This eclipse may coincide with:The dismantling of identities, passions, or roles you once deeply identified withA sense of loss, instability, or aggressive clearingSimultaneously, the seeding of a new way of operating as an individual in service of the collectiveThis is the month we find ourselves fully stepping in a new era – let's go!Connect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

This week I chat with the content queen herself Xanthe Appleyard! Our conversation explores what it means to lead, create, and build sustainably – from a foundation of pleasure and self-trust. Xanthe shares the organic evolution of her “leisure ethic” – a values-based framework rooted in autonomy, integration, and choice.Although I wanted to explore all of Xanthe’s 12 principles, in 60 minutes we could only talk through only a handful. That said, this robust conversation offers so many reflections on auditing work for alignment, redefining pleasure in personal language, navigating hard conversations, and embracing conflict as intimacy, and how sustainable success emerges from integration rather than sacrifice.Grounded in Xanthe’s real-life transitions, she offers so much insight on a human-centered blueprint for building a life and business that honors the whole self.Connect with Xanthe:On instagram hereOn tiktok hereOn her podcast hereVia Social LifeAlso Mentioned:Samantha MacKinnonChelsea RiffeConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

*Time stamps are available below so you can jump ahead to your sign.*2026 is a pivotal year that piggy backs on so much of the change that was seeded in 2025.For all of us we’re going to be experiencing a ramping up in our communication, a willful desire to be wholly our weird, wild, rebellious, and contrarian selves, and ultimately we’ll be ending the year having shed many protective layers to our identity and expression – allowing ourselves to be more fully seen.This is a year that will require courage from all of us, but we’ll be up for the challenge – we’re ready.Wishing you an expansive 2026 friend!Timestamps:00:00:00 Intro00:03:50 Aries Rising00:23:00 Taurus Rising00:42:28 Gemini Rising01:04:38 Cancer Rising01:25:56 Leo Rising01:47:00 Virgo Rising02:10:20 Libra Rising02:33:05 Scorpio Rising02:57:58 Sagittarius Rising03:21:10 Capricorn Rising03:44:35 Aquarius Rising04:08:48 Pisces Rising04:31:46 Wrap UpBook an astrology reading with meRead about all the major dates of 2026Connect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

January offers us a chance to balance our relationships to our bodies and felt experience with our work and our desire to turn ideas into reality.The Full Moon in Cancer 13º on January 3rd is very concerned with our relationship to our felt experience. There’s an opportunities to look back on the last 6 months and year to assess how our relationships to our bodies, nourishment, and collective care have shifted and evolved.The New Moon in Capricorn 28º on January 18º is a unique one in that Mars and Mercury are conjoined in the sky at the same time. This is a poignant moment that offers us a great deal of clarity of direction as well as our sense of purpose. Just be sure not to overdo your intentions – remember that your body and self-care are just as necessary and important as the dreams you’re striving towards.Reminder that select astrology readings with me are $99 through the end of the year – ⁠⁠book yours here!Mentioned:2026 Key Astrological Dates SubstackConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

There’s a pull towards the past – past ways of operating, building, old dreams and ambitions. There’s a feeling that what worked before must work again – but deep down we know that’s not true.This season helps us to tie up the final chapters of the books we’ve been writing the past few years (if not decades), and prepares us for the radical changes that 2026 has in store.Themes of the weeksWeek 1 (12.21-12.27) – stillness and tending to what motivates our creative visions for the long haulWeek 2 (12.28-1.3) – following up our creativity with conversations, tender activations, and big ideas for the futureWeek 3 (1.4-1.10) – running hot and coldWeek 4 (1.11-1.17) – tough love and hard work paying offWeek 5 (1.18-1.19) – breaking up the hard earthTune in to hear more about how each of these weeks will unfold, and the energy you can tap into to help direct your own creative cycles.Reminder that select astrology readings with me are $99 through the end of the year – ⁠book yours here!Key Dates:12.21 Sun enters Capricorn, Venus square Saturn, Jupiter Rx square Chiron Rx12.24 Venus enters Capricorn (through Jan 17, 2026)1.1 Mercury enters Capricorn (through Jan 20)1.3 Full Moon Cancer 13º1.6 Venus conjunct Sun1.7 Venus conjunct Mars1.9 Sun conjunct Mars, Venus opposes Jupiter Rx1.10 Sun & Mars oppose Jupiter Rx1.17 Venus enters Aquarius (through Feb 10), Sun trines Uranus Rx1.18 Mercury conjunct Mars, New Moon Capricorn 28ºSun enters AquariusMentioned:How to work with every moon substackKnow your moon know your comfort zone substackConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

Brand strategist and wonderfully inspiring Ylani Estwick joins me today for a conversation about building from an intuitive and heart-center vision, and cultivating motivation by leaning in to your purpose.Ylani shares her journey of transitioning from a decade-long copywriting career into a more intuitive, purpose-led business rooted in authenticity and inner alignment. She discusses how personal identity, curiosity, and the courage to change one’s mind deeply shape the entrepreneurial path. Together, we explore what it means to build a brand that is a living expression of one’s essence, and how to navigate the fog of stuck-ness with clarity, momentum, and audacious self-trust.Connect with Ylani via her:90 min Anchor SessionsWebsite // Instagram // Substack // ThreadsConnect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Astrology Readings // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Coaching // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack // ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pinterest //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads //⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website

One of my goals for 2026 is to live more in alignment with my energetic cycles and rhythms, and to detach from the linearity we so often prescribe to. So if that is my goal, this December is my introduction to actually living into that belief and way of being.In this episode I discuss some of the themes that have been coming into clarity around my work, the way I operate, the fears my business and work-ethic are rooted in, and what I plan to do to align myself with the vision I'm holding for the year ahead – including taking a break on a few aspects of my business.My invitation for everyone during this time to cultivate some space - even just a little - to assess where and how your energy is being distributed and whether or not that output/production is reciprocal.Connect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ASTROLOGY READINGS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LIFE COACHING⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUBSTACK⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PINTEREST⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠THREADS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE⁠

We've almost reached the end of 2025 friends! A year that's truly felt like 20 in 1, but are we really that excited to get into the wildness that will be 2026?The lunations of the month are right on theme with the rest of the energy that surrounds them.The Full Moon in Gemini on December 4th is illuminating all the distracting rabbit holes you might finding yourself going down, and asking you – what threads are you following that actually align with the bigger dream?Then, the New Moon in Sagittarius on December 19th, just before the Winter Solstice is asking us to get very clear about our energetic and intuitive capacities, as well as the boundaries we create to help ourselves stay true to our energy. It's month that will absolutely be mentally and spiritually stimulating, and will hopefully leave us with more clarity of direction that when we entered.Reminder that select astrology readings with me are $99 through the end of the year – ⁠book yours here!Connect with me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ASTROLOGY READINGS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LIFE COACHING⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUBSTACK⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PINTEREST⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠THREADS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE⁠
