Show Notes
In this week’s episode, I am catching up with my friend and fellow astrologer, Michelle Grodnick. We get into her experience leaving a traditional corporate job to pursue astrology full-time, her experience studying astrology at the University of Oxford in the U.K. (yes, that’s a real thing!), family dynamic astrology, and the fact that we are both pregnant and expecting baby Virgo girls later this year. The main theme throughout our conversation is how astrology points to making these major life decisions, whether it’s leaving one career behind for another or deciding to become a parent, and the shifts in your priorities that come as a result.
You can find Michelle and her work at 4thhouseastrology.com or on Instagram, TikTok, and Substack @slightlyspiraling

In this last episode of the podcast before I go on maternity leave, I have my astrologer friends Seth and Maxine back on to discuss all of the major transits happening throughout the end of 2026 and into 2027. We cover all of the upcoming retrogrades (Mercury, Mars, and Venus), having Jupiter trine Saturn across the fire signs, the upcoming eclipses as they wrap up in Pisces/Virgo and fully shift into Leo/Aquarius, and what we’ve already been noticing with Chiron in Taurus.
In this month's forecast, we'll cover all the major transits happening throughout Virgo season. I'm going over the Sun's transit through Virgo, the lunar eclipse in Pisces and what its ruler, Jupiter, is doing, the new moon in Virgo, Mars squaring Saturn, Mercury and Venus both changing signs, and more!
In this week’s episode, I have my friend and astrologer, Meghan Rose, on to discuss all things relationship astrology and synastry alignments. We also get into how she uses her intuition to read charts, the sign polarities between Leo and Aquarius with the new transit of the nodes, the astrology of undergoing a major move, and Saturn return experiences. You can find Meghan on Instagram @the_meghanrose or through her podcast, Starcrossed. You can also find more information about her new astrology app, Asteri @asteri.app on Instagram.
In this solo episode, I’m recapping how the astrology has played out in the last half of my pregnancy before getting to some listener Q&A’s. I discuss managing disappointment around certain transits, how to cope during retrogrades, transits to the Nodes, Saturn transits, the significance of a cazimi, and more!
In this week’s episode, I have my good friend Maxine Luzia back on the podcast for a casual astrology chat. We touch upon several different topics, as we go over recent outer planet transits we’ve been experiencing, the intricacies of parent-child synastry, our predictions for my child’s birth chart, the astrology of pets, and not fearing upcoming astrology.
