February is one of those months where astrology says, “Okay, let’s slow down and pay attention.”

In this episode, we’re walking through February’s monthly mood board and why it feels so full. Between a Leo full moon to start the month, Saturn moving into Aries on Valentine’s Day, a solar eclipse in Aquarius, and Mercury retrograde closing things out, there’s a lot happening. None of it is inherently bad, but it is layered, and how it lands for you depends heavily on your chart.

Tune in as we break down the biggest transits of the month and what they’re really asking of you, including why Saturn conjunct Neptune in Aries is one of the most important shifts of the entire year and why February is a month to protect your capacity. We walk through Aquarius season themes for every rising sign and share practical ways to work with the energy instead of bracing against it. Big month, yes, but manageable when you know what you’re looking at.

What You'll Discover:

1. Why February’s astrology feels intense but isn’t meant to be feared.
2. How the Leo full moon on February 1st connects back to intentions you set six months ago.
3. What Saturn moving into Aries on February 14th begins for long-term responsibility and identity.
4. How the Aquarius solar eclipse on February 17th kicks off a new 18-month chapter.
5. Why Saturn conjunct Neptune on February 20th marks a major collective and personal reset.
6. How Mercury retrograde in Pisces ties back to last fall’s eclipse themes.
7. Aquarius season and eclipse themes for each rising sign.
8. Practical ways to build boundaries and capacity during a very full month.

Ever notice how some people can make snap decisions while you're still analyzing every possible outcome? Or maybe you're the one making quick moves while your friends are stuck in analysis paralysis?

The truth is, we all have different decision-making styles, and your Mars placement in astrology holds the key to understanding yours.

Join us this week to learn how your Mars placement reveals how you take action, how you move towards saying yes or no in your life, and what blocks your momentum. We break down all 12 Mars placements by element, exploring how Fire Mars decides by making the movement, Earth Mars decides by stability, Air Mars decides by processing and dialogue, and Water Mars decides by emotional safety.

What You'll Discover:

1. Why Fire Mars signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) find clarity through action, not planning.
2. How Earth Mars signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) prioritize stability and sustainability in their choices.
3. Why Air Mars signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) need to talk things through before committing.
4. How Water Mars signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) require emotional safety to move forward.
5. The question each Mars placement needs to ask themselves before making a decision.

Have you ever wondered how to actually use astrology in your everyday life?

Maybe you've dabbled with birth charts or read your horoscope, but you're not sure how to make it practical. The truth is, astrology doesn't have to be this abstract, mystical thing that feels disconnected from reality. It can be as simple as checking the weather forecast. If you know it's going to rain, you bring an umbrella. If you know your 12th house season is coming, you clear your calendar.

Join us this week as we share exactly how we’ve integrated astrology into our daily lives and used it as a strategic planning tool for the past year. You'll learn how to identify your own challenging seasons, and we’re also giving you a one-week experiment to start tracking the moon in your chart so you can see how astrology shows up in your everyday life.

What You'll Discover:

1. How to identify your 8th and 12th house seasons and what themes they bring up.
2. Why eclipses in angular houses (1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th) tend to feel louder and more life-changing.
3. How annual profections and time lords help you know which transits will matter most to your year.
4. Why treating astrology like a weather forecast helps you plan without letting it control your life.
5. How to give yourself more compassion during challenging astrological seasons.
6. The one-week moon experiment you can try to start using astrology day-to-day.

January can feel overwhelming, but Capricorn season offers us a chance to recalibrate and slow down after the holiday rush. Instead of diving headfirst into the "new year, new me" mentality, we're encouraged to take things one step at a time and focus on small, sustainable changes. We kick off the year with a grounding energy and take a close look at how each rising sign can work with Capricorn’s practical, focused vibes.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have some specific homework to help you focus on small but impactful shifts that will lead to real, lasting change. Whether it's through setting goals or creating emotional boundaries, we’ve got practical tips that align with the energy of Capricorn season.

What You'll Discover:

• How Capricorn season invites us to recalibrate rather than reinvent.
• Why small changes to routines are more effective than drastic overhauls.
• How to work with Capricorn energy based on your rising sign’s needs.
• What the Fool tarot card has to teach us about releasing old beliefs and embracing the new.
• Practical homework for each rising sign to make small, sustainable shifts this month.

December is magical, but the plans, the people, and the pressure can overwhelm us fast. In this episode, we look at building your holiday capacity through the wisdom of your moon sign, helping you understand what you can hold, and what risks draining you during the Holidays.

Your moon sign shows what fills your internal battery and what burns it out. When you understand your specific needs, you can navigate gatherings, traditions, and family time without abandoning yourself or your energy.

We also share our own moon-sign stories, how we make decisions during busy seasons, and simple ways to protect your capacity before overwhelm hits. The big reminder: just because you technically can say yes doesn’t mean you have the emotional space to hold it.

What You'll Discover:

• How each element (Fire, Earth, Air, Water) expands or collapses your capacity during the holidays.
• What activities and environments fill vs. drain each moon sign.
• Practical strategies that support your moon sign’s needs.
• Why knowing your family’s moon signs helps you plan saner holidays.
• How to anticipate overwhelm before it hits instead of reacting in it.
• The most helpful capacity question for your element to guide holiday decisions.

Holiday gifting gets so much easier when you stop guessing and start looking at people’s rising signs. In this episode, we share our rising-sign gift guide, complete with literal suggestions on what to get your bestie, your brother, or your mother-in-law. When you use astrology as your compass, you won’t second-guess the gifts you give this year.

We also explore the astrology behind how we give. Your moon sign shows the emotional push behind your generosity. Your Venus sign shapes your natural gifting style. And your Jupiter placement reveals the philosophy behind your giving: what makes generosity feel good, purposeful, and aligned rather than overwhelming or obligatory.

By the end, you’ll understand not just what kind of gifts your people want, but also why you approach giving the way you do. Through astrology, holiday shopping becomes less of a guessing game and more of an intuitive, intentional act where everyone involved gets to feel seen.

What You'll Discover:

• Why fire moons give with excitement and water moons give with depth.
• How your Venus sign shapes whether you’re drawn to bold gifts, quality items, clever presents, or meaningful keepsakes.
• What your Jupiter placement says about giving to inspire, support, connect, or nurture.
• How to use rising signs as a gift-giving cheat code for the holidays.
• Why Gemini risings want brain-teaser gifts while Cancer risings crave comfort and connection.
• Practical gift ideas for every rising sign based on their natural pace and preferences.
