Astrology with Heather: The Cosmic Wellness Podcast

Astrologer Heather Eland sits down with mundane astrologer Dan Waites to unpack the Saturn–Neptune conjunction in Aries (2026) and why it marks a turning point for the collective.This episode explores long historical cycles, global power shifts, borders, belief systems, and the growing sense that old structures are dissolving while something new takes shape. We also discuss themes of liminality, disillusion, and why this transit can feel like reality itself is becoming less stable.A grounded, non-sensational look at one of the most important astrological alignments of the decade.

If you’re struggling night after night to get deep, restful, restorative sleep—where you actually wake up feeling energized—your birth chart may be pointing to why… and what your nervous system needs to finally downshift.In this episode, Heather Eland (professional astrologer, educator, and M.A. in Clinical Psychology) breaks down the most common astrological signatures connected to sleep issues, with a special focus on 12th house sleep indicators—the part of the chart linked to sleep quality, dreams, restoration, and the unconscious. You’ll learn how specific placements (including Mars, Uranus, Saturn, Pluto, Mercury, and the Sun in the 12th) can correlate with insomnia, erratic sleep schedules, nighttime mental overactivity, nightmares, and nervous system dysregulation—plus practical ways to start tracking what actually improves your sleep.You’ll also learn why sleep is one of the most important foundations of health: it’s when your body focuses on restoration, recovery, and detox, and when your brain processes information, regulates stress, and clears what it doesn’t need to hold.Introduction to Astrological Sleep Optimization 00:00Common Chart Patterns Affecting Sleep 03:4412th House Planets & Sleep 12:59Conclusion and Workshop Invitation 41:50🎓 Want deeper support + personalized chart-based guidance?Join Heather’s Celestial Self-Care Workshop (Nervous System Regulation + Sleep) here: https://www.astrologywithheather.com/celestial-self-care✅ In this workshop, you’ll learn how to align your self-care and sleep routines with your unique astrological blueprint—so you’re not stuck trying random wellness tips that don’t actually work for your body.If this episode helps you, please follow the podcast and share it with a friend who needs better sleep.Keywords: sleep astrology, medical astrology, 12th house, insomnia, nervous system regulation, dreams, circadian rhythm, cortisol, sleep hygiene, restorative sleep, anxiety and sleep, astrology health.

Grief is universal, but the way we experience and process loss is deeply personal. In this episode, astrologer Heather Eland explores the astrology of grief through the lens of the 8th house and its planetary ruler, explaining how your birth chart can reveal what you need during periods of loss, bereavement, and major life endings. This grounded, compassionate discussion covers death, symbolic loss, trauma, and healing, while emphasizing astrology as a supportive tool—not a replacement for professional care. Ideal for astrologers, students, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of grief through the lens of astrology.Intro & the 8th House Ruler - 00:00Ruler of the 8th House in the 1st House - 08:00Ruler of the 8th House in the 2nd House - 09:46Ruler of the 8th House in the 3rd House - 10:33Ruler of the 8th House in the 4th House - 11:47Ruler of the 8th House in the 5th House - 12:34Ruler of the 8th House in the 6th House - 13:29Ruler of 8th House in the 7th House - 14:55Ruler of the 8th House in the 8th House - 15:42Ruler of the 8th House in the 9th House - 17:01Ruler of the 8th House in the 10th House - 18:44Ruler of the 8th House in the 11th House - 20:20Ruler of the 8th House in the 12th House - 21:45Outro - 23:39

If you’ve ever wondered why certain transits should bring breakthroughs but feel like they stall out, this episode explains the missing piece.I’m joined by my personal feng shui consultant, Amy Babish, to talk about the Taoist “Three Types of Luck”—and how they weave directly into astrology. Cosmic luck (your birth chart and astrological timing), human luck (your choices and healing), and earth luck (your home and environment) each make up one-third of how opportunities show up in your life.Most astrologers work with the first two… but the third one is often completely overlooked.In this conversation, we explore how small shifts in your space can amplify your transits, open new opportunities, and help 2026 feel more aligned and supportive. This isn’t just about re-arranging furniture—it’s energetic mechanics, and it pairs beautifully with astrology.If you’re calling in clarity or momentum this year, this episode gives you the missing 33% of the picture.Decode your birth chart with your FREE Astrology 101 Quick Reference Guide: https://www.astrologywithheather.com/astrology-101-pdf-guideWork with Amy Babish: https://www.amybabish.com
