In this podcast, we talk about Guru Purnima and the relationship between the guru and the soul. Guru Purnima occurs every year... but THIS YEAR, Jupiter will be in the exact degree as the Sun. For some, there can be spiritual confusion. However, it can also be time of profound insight and awakening. This is a powerful time to honor our teachers, connect with the guru within, and reflect on the wisdom guiding our path.We also discuss Saturn retrograde and how this transit may take us on spiritual journeys, deepen our spiritual practice, and bring awareness to our commitments. Saturn may also bring karmic lessons to the surface... Not to punish us, but to help us gain the wisdom and maturity needed to move forward.Mars in Gemini creates intensity around travel, communication, media, and the United States. As we move toward eclipse season, things may feel increasingly unpredictable. Eclipse energy can rock the boat for world leaders while highlighting themes connected to the homeland, security, and national identity.Finally, we talk about Venus debilitated in Virgo while receiving the influence of both Saturn and Mars. This can create intensity around love, relationships, finances, creativity, and self-worth. Venus in Virgo may become perfectionistic, critical, or overly focused on what needs to be fixed. However, we can lean into the positive qualities of this transit by practicing discernment, tending carefully to what we love, and using our awareness to create meaningful healing.Characteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast 

Hi everyone, Today we spend some time discussing the concepts of Puruṣa, Prakṛti, and Avidyā. These are three foundational teachings that help us better understand our true nature, the material world, and the causes of human suffering - according to Sanātana Dharma. As we deepen our awareness of these principles, we can cultivate a more conscious relationship with our thoughts, emotions, and experiences.For the philosophers: The concept of Avidyā is clearly described in the Yoga Sutras. Puruṣa and Prakṛti are articulated in Sāṃkhya philosophy (though have roots well beyond such as in the Rig Veda and Upanishads). To my knowledge.We also review some key upcoming transits: Final Vortex before Eclipse SeasonMercury Direct: July 23rdOuter planet line up: Now through July 29th Guru Purnima: July 29thChristine Characteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast  

In this episode, we explore the major transits of JULY, which there are many!We spend time reviewing Venus conjunct Ketu in Leo. This is a transit that can bring old relationship patterns, memories, and karmic dynamics back into awareness. It can also generate creative expression, poetic insight, a deepening of spiritual practice, love of solitude, and self-reflection in regard to matters of the heart. We also discuss Mercury retrograde and the New Moon in Punarvasu, one of the most restorative and hopeful nakshatras. The upcoming new moon is truly a beautiful time to consider what needs revision, restoration, nourishment, or forgiveness. Saturn retrogrades this month as well - inviting us to take an honest look at our commitments, habits, responsibilities, and long-term goals. This is a time to strengthen our foundation through discipline, humility, accountability, and intentional effort rather than seeking quick results.We also explore the Full Moon in Capricorn and why it may highlight themes surrounding home, housing, homeland security, government, and emotional wellbeing. As new information comes to light, it is possible that an important turning point can shift the direction of both personal and global events.Finally, we discuss the conclusion of Kala Sarpa Yoga and the energetic shift that may accompany its completion.Characteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast

Jupiter has officially entered Cancer, and in this episode I explore one of the themes I've been noticing recently: Individuals being offered the opportunity to go deeper and reveal truths about themselves via triggers. Though not the most comfortable, these moments can provide powerful opportunities for healing and support us in getting to the root of old wounds, patterns, and emotional conditioning - ultimately leading to greater inner security and personal safety. As the guru of the zodiac, Jupiter illuminates what is True. This energy isn't limited to our personal lives... It may also be noticeable collectively. Truth may be exposed with important information, insights, and revelations. Realizations may emerge in the external world throughout this transit.We also discuss Mars in Taurus and the importance of focusing on long-term goals, sustained effort, and building something with a long term agenda. Mars conjunction with Uranus on July 4th brings the possibility of sudden events, unexpected experiences, breakthroughs, and heightened intensity. Finally, we review the temporary sweetness of Saraswati Yoga. This conjunction offers a softer and more harmonious energy for a bit at the end of June. This is a beautiful time to embrace creativity, learning, beauty, comfort, and the simple pleasures. It's a time of nourishment, kicking back, and inner fulfillment.

The upcoming new moon on June 14th will take place in Mrigashira. This asterism is symbolized by the deer's head - representing the nature of the seeker... the part of ourselves that longs to explore, be curious, and pursue what feels meaningful and inspiring. This period of time may stir sensitivity, wanderlust, impulsivity, or curiosity, while also revealing the ways we search outside of ourselves for what can only be found within.In this episode, we'll explore the symbolism of Mrigashira, the gifts and challenges of this restless nakshatra, and how to work consciously with its energy. We will reflect on the difference between healthy curiosity and endless chasing and consider how devotion, discernment, and presence can guide us toward what we truly seek.

Jupiter enters Cancer, the sign of its exaltation, marking one of the most anticipated transits of 2026. In this episode, we explore Jupiter in Cancer for all 12 signs and which area of life Jupiter will offer expansion and growth. We spend the first 17 minutes reviewing how this transit can impact the collective... I recommend listening and not skipping ahead because I discuss some transits we will experience later this year!

June brings one of the biggest energetic shifts of the year as Jupiter enters Cancer, beginning a new 12-year cycle centered around nourishment, emotional intelligence, home, family, and security - internally and externally! This is a very exciting transit as Jupiter is truly a planet of opportunity, grace, growth, and expansion.We also discuss the formation of Saraswati Yoga in Cancer. This combination highlights themes of knowledge, creativity, education, and depth. The more intense transit for the month - Mars enters the sign of Taurus. This transit asks us to slow down, stabilize, and build with thoughtfulness rather than impulse. Mercury will retrograde at the end of the month, which may prompt reviewing plans or having us redo tasks.

Saturn’s transit through in 2026 brings us into one of the most liminal, transitional, and spiritually charged spaces of the zodiac. Revati is connected to endings, release, wandering, surrender, and the journey between worlds. In this episode, we explore how Saturn’s presence here may ask us to confront uncertainty, exhaustion, lack of direction, and the dissolution of what once gave us certainty.We review the emphasis on water already emerging in world events — from piracy and drug boats to increasing global focus on oil and gas. Neptune is also strongly activated - amplifying themes of confusion, escapism, longing, and disorientation. Saturn in Revati can feel like walking through fog: inspiration may wane, discipline may feel harder to access, and it is possible to feel suspended between chapters of life. This transit may feel like a grand purge - emotionally, spiritually, materially, or relationally, which can clear space for a completely new cycle to emerge.Saturn in Revati - may 17 - October 9, 2026 Feb 8, 2027 - June 3, 2027 Oct 20, 2027 - Feb 23, 2028D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

The New Moon in Taurus arrives in the sharp and discerning nakshatra of Krittika.. an asterism associated with purification, clarity, and the sacred fire that burns away inner distortion and bias. Taurus reminds us to slow down, ground ourselves, and reconnect with stability, the senses, nature, and what makes us feel safe. Krittika asks us to remain neutral and objective, even in the storm of inner turbulence. There may be some emotional reactivity, projection, or attachment around this new moon. Krittika has the ability to cut through confusion, helping us separate emotional intensity from objective truth. We also discuss the upcoming Saraswati Yoga, a deeply supportive combination for learning, creativity, wisdom, and communication. 30 Minute Readings https://calendly.com/vedic_astrology/30-minuteYOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

In the segment, we spend time reflecting on a the previous year of Jupiter in Gemini... Before Jupiter shifts into Cancer on June 1st, we have a final opportunity to consider what knowledge, perspectives, and connections have shaped us over the past year. What have we learned? What "truths" have changed? What connections opened new pathways?Jupiter’s move into Cancer marks a major energetic shift... from the intellect into the emotional body, from information into nourishment, and a massive focus on home, homeland security, and seeking safety.

Spoiler alert: This podcast is very relationship based and you can find personal contemplation questions at 23:03 if you're wanting to journal on this full moon. Beltane + Full Moon in Libra really has the potential to illuminate matters involving love, intimacy, and relational balance!May 1st brings a full moon in Libra, highlighting the balance between self and other.. separateness and closeness. The moon in Libra asks to us to lean into "the other" while the Sun in Aries reminds us that this is only possible with a firm connection to the self... This full moon brings relationship dynamics into focus, asking us to examine patterns, projections, and the roles we unconsciously play with friends, lovers, and collaborators.This full moon coincides with Beltane (!), the Gaelic festival of fertility, life, and sacred union. Beltane carries themes of attraction, commitment ,and the life force that draws us toward creation. It’s a celebration of polarity—masculine and feminine, self and other—mirroring the essence of Libra.This is a significant moment for reflecting on the relationships we attract, what they awaken within us, and how we can move toward more conscious, aligned connection... Contemplation Questions: 1. What qualities do I consistently attract in friends or partners? 2. How do I tend to behave in close relationships, and what role do I unconsciously step into?3. What emotional patterns feel familiar in my relationships4. What does being in this type of relationship allow me to do or avoid? 5. If I attracted someone completely different (someone ideal, healthy, secure, aligned), what parts of myself would I have to grow into or confront?
