“The wound is the place where the light enters you.” -Rumi

We are entering another profound chapter of self-initiation, a season of soul surgery, as Chiron, the Wounded Healer, stations retrograde in Aries, the sign of selfhood, courage, instinct, and fire-born emergence.

This retrograde is a cosmic journey inward.. a remembering, a reclaiming, and a rewriting of the story we tell ourselves about pain, protection, and power.

From July 30, 2025 to January 2, 2026, the medicine of Chiron calls us home. Not the kind of “home” built of bricks or lineage, but the deeper home of identity, your unfiltered essence, before we learned to armor up.

This Leo New Moon is landing in my 10th house of visibility, soul work, and sacred leadership, while opposing my natal Venus Retrograde in Aquarius in the 4th house. And I can feel it. There’s this deep heart-pull between my longing for authentic, safe belonging (4th house Venus) and the way my soul is asking me to step forward with my gifts in a more visible, bolder way (10th house Leo). It’s not just about being seen, it’s about being seen as I am. Unmasked, messy, magnetic. This opposition feels like a reckoning between the parts of me that still associate visibility with danger, rejection, or exile, and the parts of me that know I came here to lead, to shine, and to activate others simply by embodying the truth of who I am. This New Moon is asking me to trust that home can exist in my own heart, even while I share it with the world.

There’s something wildly sacred about Mercury retrograde in Leo. This isn’t just another season of delayed plans or tech mishaps. This is something far deeper.. a descent into the molten gold of your heart, a call to reclaim the truth of who you are through the voice you’ve forgotten, the stories you’ve outgrown, and the brilliance you’re finally ready to embody.

This is where it gets real. Because Leo isn’t about superficial performance, not at its core. It’s about expression that matters. Not for attention, but for devotion, forr meaning, for the joy of being fully seen, and the deeper joy of seeing yourself clearly, without distortion.

Saturn, the Elder, the Architect, the Great Teacher, has begun its retrograde journey in Aries, the sign of instinct, emergence, raw identity, and sacred will. When Saturn stations, something profound begins. Time thickens. The boundaries we unconsciously rely on begin to loosen, and we are asked to slow down, not just to rest, but to reckon.

This retrograde isn't simply about individual growth. It’s about the collective reshaping of what it means to be in right relationship with self-initiation.

There’s a sacred electricity moving through the cosmos today. The sky hums with a quiet urgency, a pulse that feels like change trembling just beneath the surface. You can feel it..a vibration in your chest, a subtle pull toward something freer, something more true.

Venus, the planet of love, beauty, self-worth, and what we hold dear, meets Uranus, the great awakener, at 29º Taurus - the anaretic degree, the final karmic release point of the sign.

The 29th degree carries the weight of lifetimes. It’s a threshold, an edge where cycles complete and attachments loosen.

Right now, I am moving through one of those transits.
Pluto is retrograding for the secod time (retrograde motion) over my natal Venus retrograde in Aquarius in my 4th house, and I can feel it.. in my bones, in my breath, in the places I once called safe.

This isnot soft.. this is Pluto, the relentless force of transformation, walking straight into the hidden rooms of my heart, placing a hand on the walls I once built to feel secure, and asking me, with piercing clarity:
“Is this really home? Is this really love? Is this really enough for you?”

Uranus will move into Gemini on July 7, 2025. Then from November 7, 2025 – April 26, 2026 , Uranus retrogrades back into Taurus for a final period, cleaning up any loose ends and finalizing the major shifts initiated during its earlier transit.

There is a peculiar intensity that lives within the 29th degree in astrology. Known as the anaretic degree, the final, critical degree of any sign, it often signals a culmination, a sense of urgency, a moment where energy is heightened, pressing us toward resolution, decision, or breakthrough. It is the degree of karmic closing, where we are asked to master what we have been learning and to integrate it in our bones.

This New Moon in Cancer feels like a divine turning point. A homecoming. A soft, yet powerful invitation to begin again, but this time, with your whole heart.

Cancer always brings us back to the body, to our roots, to the question of where we truly belong. And yet, as I sit with this moon, I can feel that belonging is no longer about the past. It’s not about clinging to the familiar, It is about creating a life that holds you now, a life that feels like a sanctuary you can trust.

I’ve felt the ache of time I’ve given to people who couldn’t truly meet me, the tenderness of realizing where my softness was used or unseen, and the sharp edges of boundaries rising to the surface. I’ve also felt moments of quiet liberation, clarity that I don’t need to wait anymore. I’m no longer in the space of waiting or lingering in doorways that aren’t opening, I’m not holding softness where there is no reciprocity.

Mars enters Virgo with the soul of a sacred surgeon. Precision becomes power and devotion becomes direction. From June 17 to August 6, the red flame of Mars moves through the sign of the Priestess, the Healer, the Keeper of Earth’s subtle orders. This is a time to alchemize frustration into functionality and ground cosmic fire into embodied purpose.

This isn’t an invitation to perfectionism, it’s a summons to conscious refinement. Mars in Virgo doesn't roar, it slices cleanly through what no longer serves and brings energy and momentum to your healing path, especially in the small, often overlooked rituals that restore sovereignty to your body, mind, and spirit.

This is a time of culmination, and a time of release.Release the outdated beliefs you inherited from systems that tried to tame your spirit. Release the fears around being “too much,” “too deep,” “too intense”, especially when you speak your truth. Release the illusion that you need to be understood by everyone in order to be worthy of being heard.

This is a cosmic invitation to reclaim your voice, your vision, and your unique way of seeing the world.

And with Jupiter in Cancer guiding this moon, your expansion now comes through intimacy, safety, home, roots, and emotional truth. It’s not about shouting from mountaintops just to be heard. It’s about feeling the truth in your bones.. and living it.

Jupiter, the great cosmic magnifier, teacher, and bridge to the divine, slips now into the ancient waters of Cancer ~the sign of the womb, the Mother, the memory keeper of the soul. After a fast-paced, mentally stimulated journey through Gemini, where we gathered information, found our voices, and danced with duality, we are now being called inward. Homeward.

Jupiter in Cancer invites you to return to your inner sanctum. To grow roots where you've been hovering in survival. To feel more than you rationalize. To nourish more than you perform. To remember what safety feels like in your own body. And to reclaim the ancestral stories your blood still whispers — not to repeat them, but to alchemize them.

In this deeply honest and tender episode, Jayme and Inese open up about recent waves of exhaustion, social disconnection, and the energetic shifts affecting so many right now. From burnout to spiritual awakenings, evolving friendships, and the desire for authentic connection, this episode offers a soft space to land for anyone navigating the in-between.

Together, they explore how emotional safety is becoming the new measure of abundance, and how the upcoming Jupiter in Cancer transit is inviting all of us to rest, retreat, and redefine what home and success truly mean. Jayme also shares the exciting announcement of her new 12-week healing program for entrepreneurs—The Embodied Entrepreneur—and how it complements her business-building course, The Idea Incubator.

This Full Moon in Scorpio at 22º is no ordinary illumination. This is a lunar revelation - a soul surgery - a sacred unraveling and reweaving of truth, trust, and transformation.

Scorpio, the sign of death and rebirth, calls us into the underworld chambers of our psyche. At 22º, we are at a master-builder degree: this lunation wants us to not only feel what’s been hidden, but to build anew from the ashes of what is no longer aligned.

Jayme and Inese explored the sacred energies of the season, weaving together themes of Venusian embodiment, pleasure, and the union of feminine and masculine fire. They reflected on upcoming astrological events—like Saturn and Venus entering Aries—as a cosmic reset inviting discipline, courage, and soul-aligned action amidst chaos and new beginnings. Their dialogue emphasized the power of self-love, spiritual longing, and honoring one’s unique frequency. Together, they called for surrender, trust, and a deeper commitment to individuality, encouraging others to lead from their essence rather than comparison. They also touched on the sacred witness archetype and the role of starseeds, reminding us to focus our energy on what nourishes the planet and the soul.

As the Moon kisses the Sun in the fertile embrace of Taurus, a portal opens.. earthy, ancient, humming with the music of creation itself.

This New Moon is not one of rushing or reaching. It invites us into the body of the Earth, the body of our being, the body of our dreams.

Taurus, the keeper of sacred rhythms, reminds us: what you plant now, with presence and devotion, will root itself in your life for seasons to come.

Aries Energy and Manifestation Current
Inese and Jayme discussed the shift from Pisces to Aries energy, emphasizing the importance of embodiment and action. They highlighted the transition from a focus on spirituality and unity to self-leadership and individual sovereignty.  They also discussed the need to move forward with their respective projects, with Jayme planning to publish a book and Inese focusing on her spiritual work.

Something in me knows this moment well. The sensation of standing at the edge of an old life, feeling the heat of transformation rising, the way the past flickers before it burns away.

This is the last of Aries - Libra eclipse series, creating beginnings and ending all veawed into one collosal restructurign of our realities.

This Aries New Moon Solar Eclipse is not gentle - it is an uncompromising force of initiation, a severing from all that has kept us tethered to the past.

The Sun in Aries calls us to step forward with courage, but courage is not about fearlessness - it is about choosing to rise, even when fear lingers. This season whispers to us: you are not who you once were. The past does not define you unless you keep looking back. With each Equinox, I deepen my faith. Not the kind of faith that is passive or blind, but the kind that burns like a sacred fire within - a trust that I am supported, that my path is divinely guided, that even the shadows I have faced were part of my initiation into deeper wisdom.

Following the footsteps of Venus retrograde, this Mercury retrograde asks: What has love, desire, and self-worth revealed to you? Venus stirred the deep waters of value and connection - Mercury now comes to help us integrate the lessons. The mind catches up with the heart, rewiring old beliefs and recalibrating the way we speak to ourselves. The conversations we had, the emotions we revisited, and the patterns we noticed are all threads in a larger tapestry of transformation. What once felt like confusion now becomes clarity. What was once buried beneath the surface now demands to be acknowledged.

Navigating New Energy and Awakenings
Inese and Jayme discussed the upcoming shift in energy for the year 2025, with a focus on the retrograde of Venus and Mars, eclipses in Virgo and Aries, and Neptune's transition into Aries for the first time in 165 years. They also touched on the Pisces energy currently present, which is characterized by emotional depth, lack of structure, and a dream-like state. Inese emphasized the importance of letting go, surrendering, and trusting in this new energy, and the potential for big awakenings and timeline shifts.  The conversation concluded with a discussion on the initiation into a new earth, new human, and new ways of thinking, with a focus on the fusion of light into the DNA and the awakening of parts within.
