Join the Awake Space Community! Patreon.com/theawakespace The astrology is heating up, and the October 25 Taurus Full Moon is bringing some serious shake, rattle, and roll! This week on The Awake Space, Laurie Rivers breaks down an exceptionally volatile week of astrology, including the explosive Taurus Full Moon squaring Pluto. From geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty to extreme weather and seismic activity, the cosmic currents are anything but calm. But here's the thing: You don't have to let the chaos around you become the chaos within you. Laurie shares her forecasts for October 18–27, reviews last week's predictions with the Ralph Report, and explains why giving up your personal agency is the last thing you want to do right now. Plus, there's exciting news about the evolving Awake Space community, Living by Luna, and Laurie's new Substack, Laurie Thinks Out Loud. https://lauriealicerivers.substack.com/ In a particularly personal moment, Laurie shares how a stranger's simple smile changed her life and reminds us that even the smallest acts of kindness can make an enormous difference. And before you go, Laurie walks you through a simple five-minute practice to calm your nervous system, focus your attention, and find your footing when the world feels overwhelming. Because you can't control everything happening in the world, but you can choose how you respond.

Learn, Grow and Explore in the Awake Space - CLICK TO JOIN This week on The Awake Space, Laurie Rivers looks at nostalgia, resilience, technology, AI, water resources, and the importance of knowing your next move during a period of massive systemic change. Laurie starts with a weekend trip to see Practical Magic 2, reflections on aging parents, family, memory, and why Mars in Cancer has us craving coziness, familiarity, and connection. She also shares updates on Living by Luna, the new LaurieRivers.com website, and how she intentionally worked with a Mercury transit to solve a long-standing technical problem. Then it’s Q&A: Venus retrograde and cosmetic procedures, how to calculate a solar return, aspect patterns in natal charts, and where astrologers might begin looking when researching AI and emerging technology. In the Ralph Report, Laurie reviews last week’s predictions against actual headlines before looking ahead at the astrology and potential headlines for September 13–21. The episode closes with a deeper discussion of AI, data centers, stressed aquifers, climate concerns, and why local action matters. The message throughout: knowledge by itself isn’t power. Power comes from knowing what you can actually do next.
