Send us Fan MailIn this episode of CosmicRX Radio, Tasha Beg and Madi Murphy explore the cosmic significance of recent and upcoming astrological events, including the full moon in Aquarius, the lunar cycles, and the influence of planetary alignments on societal and personal transformation. They discuss how understanding these patterns can help us navigate change with grace and insight.Tasha Beg is an evolutionary astrologer, intuitive storyteller, and pop culture pundit. A graduate of Wellesley College with a degree in Economics and Middle Eastern Studies, Tasha spent nearly a decade in finance, eventually rising to Vice President of Institutional Sales. However, a profound personal awakening during her Saturn Return led her to leave the corporate world in 2022 to fully dedicate her life to the sacred language of the cosmos. When she isn't analyzing soul plans for clients, she moonlights as "The Pop Astrologist," analyzing celebrity culture and forecasting cosmic weather through her weekly Substack newsletter. 📖 Buy my book, In the Cosmic Zone!🪐 Sign up for CosmicRx+ Premium🔥 JOIN our COSMIC BOSS WAITLIST📺 Watch the podcast on YouTube🍾Catch the Replay for the 2025 Astrology Forecast Webinar🎓 Browse our courses in the Astro Academy.✨Use our free Birth Chart Decoder to find out your Sun and Moon signs. 🔮Shop our Cosmic Baddie merch!Key Takeaways:Mercury Retrograde as Shamanic Soul Retrieval: Rather than viewing Mercury retrogrades as purely inconvenient or chaotic, treat them as divine invitations to slow down, clean out digital/mental clutter, and reconnect with past versions of yourself (like your awkward inner teen) that need extra love and integration.Sports Arenas as Global Energetic Rituals: Major collective sporting events—such as the World Cup—act as global antennas pointing the human collective mind toward shared emotional catharsis. The field becomes a canvas where historical narratives, including colonizer vs. colonized dynamics, play out in real time.The 19-Year Nodal Return & Passing the Torch: The synchronicities between Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal highlight the 19-year nodal return in astrology. Karmic torch-passing happens through divinely aligned timing, reminding us to step out into the world and increase our "surface area" for energetic transference.Working with 27-Month Moon Families: Instead of expecting manifestation results in a brief 6-month window between a New and Full Moon, track "moon families"—a 27-month narrative arc with 9-month gestational checkpoints. This longer-term rhythm offers grace, course-correction opportunities, and sustainable momentum.Horizontal Networking vs. Vertical Pedestals: As the North Node moves into Aquarius and the South Node sits in Leo, traditional celebrity culture and top-down authority are shifting. True power is moving toward horizontal networking—linking arms with peers, supporting local mom-and-pop businesses, and cultivating grassroots community support offline.We are born right now, on purpose, with a purpose.
