Have you ever had your natal chart read? Wait...What is a natal chart?? This episode is about the benefit of having your astrological natal chart read. Whew! This is one of my FAVORITE topics. Your natal chart is a snapshot of the sky the moment you took your first breath. It includes where the planets fall in the zodiacal wheel, in houses of development and in archetypal signs, rendering a translation of your very nature to be seen, understood, and loved.  I love breaking down this information for newbies and seasoned astro fans alike. I have gained so much solace and healing from understanding my own chart, as well as having a better understanding of the people, places, things, events, and yes, movement of ages (ie: into Aquarian Times...) My wish is to make astrology welcoming, fun, digestible and deeply nourishing for you! Contact me at www.juliabernbaum.com. I am currently running a fall special on natal chart readings. Reach out if you are interested! Thanks again for listening and many blessings. 🙏 Julia  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/julia359/support

After recording this episode, I realized I published a similar topic with episode #97: Searching for Prana, not that long ago!  Well, it must be an important topic, because it came up again. I think this is such an important topic, in fact, that I truly believe this is what will heal our WORLD: each individual increasing their LIFE FORCE ENERGY. It is so possible, and can be done through diet, mindset and lifestyle changes that are available to us all. Much of this can be done absolutely FREE, with access to nature, breathing, exercise and a perspective shift into gratitude, self-belief and a willingness to grow.  I hope you enjoy this exploration of what life force energy is, what it is not, and how you can get more. You can find me at www.juliabernbaum.com to learn more about life & wellness coaching, yoga, and tarot & astrology readings to help you get to know yourself, your system, and how you can heal.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/julia359/support

Hi There....Well, there are no solutions really in this episode, except the out-breath of stating the obvious, and having a healthy moment to vent.  In the last couple days I have been feeling so much grief for the state of humanity on this planet. How collectively we are showing up, or unable to show up. How people are exhibiting their worst behaviors, instead of rising to the occasion. I am feeling deeply troubled and saddened by the world today. Please, do not try to console me. I ask that you look within to your own feelings about being here. Are you happy? Are you affected and just putting blinders on to get through it? We are all needing to metabolize the collective chaos and instead of looking outward, we must look within to our own deep grief, anger, frustration, fear, etc. that the current state of the world may evoke in us.  I publish this with a bit of hesitancy, for the content is sensitive, but hey, let's show our tender hearts so that we can drop the crust and grit that choke our very arteries when gone unchecked... Thanks for listening, and wishing you a deep cleansing of all your held emotional pain. You can find me at www.juliabernbaum.com to get in touch. Blessings. PS.

This episode is about getting intentional about making some plans in your life. We are looking at the next three months: the fall season, to begin to get clear on what you want to design. This is so important if we want to make sure we have certain experiences in life, or want to accomplish specific goals, like buying a house, going on a trip, or taking a course of study.  I am offering seasonal intention setting sessions for you to get clear on what you are ready to create. Reach out to me at www.juliabernbaum.com to book your appointment!  I look forward to talking with you. Blessings 🙏 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/julia359/support

In this episode I talk about the Lion's Gate Portal, an annual event that takes place on August 8th every year. Lore has it that in the season of Leo the Lion, we enter a significant manifestation portal when the fixed star Sirius lines up with the sun, earth and orion's belt. This is a special time for manifestation when the portal opens July 26-August 12.  We are in that window now! So take advantage of this moment, notice what is happening around you, and if you are agile enough, jump right on through.  To increase your agility, reach out to me at www.juliabernbaum.com, where we can work with your astrology chart, the Tarot, and upgrade your experience through Life & Wellness coaching using the lens of Ayurveda. Wishing you an awesome manifestation moment. Dream big, and PAY ATTENTION to what happens to you and around you.  Many Blessings. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/julia359/support

This episode looks at the possibility that you may be being hard on yourself.  What does that even mean?  Well, often we can overlay big judgements and expectations on ourselves causing us to be very, very hard on ourselves. We may compare ourselves to others, push for unrealistic standards, or just berate and belittle ourselves for not being "good enough". I talk about three different perspectives to understand why this may be happening in your life: 1. What planets in your natal astrological birth chart may reveal this dynamic. 2. Which Ayurvedic dosha's can be responsible for this behavior. 3. Which tarot cards can reveal the presence of this energy leaking from our subconscious mind (most likely programmed in our youth through our upbringing, environment, and ancestral patterns.) I hope this is a helpful episode showing you that you actually have control over this aspect of yourself, no matter how ingrained or deeply wired you are to be this way. Once you become AWARE of these patterns, you have the power to change them. It may take work, but it is possible.  Reach out to comment or schedule a consult with me. You can find me at www.juliabernbaum.com. I truly wish you a better and better experience of yourself and your life!

This week I have a short but powerful message for you on this 100th episode of Aquarian Times!! The gist: You have permission.  "For what", you ask? For ALL of it: to do what you want to do, to live your best life, to make your own decisions, to follow your heart and live your biggest dreams. So, give yourself PERMISSION today! I decided to tack on a wonderful deep dive to punctuate this message, a guided meditation called, "Unlock your Lovability" by Being Epic Coach, Alex Iglecia. To listen to my full interview with Alex in the winter of 2020 on "Befriending the Dragon Within", go back to episode #29 of Aquarian Times 🤩🤩🤩. This meditation is a re-air, and a reminder to go to those deep places within yourself to retrieve the parts of you that have been holding you back.  Reach out to me at www.juliabernbaum.com to get more support through life and wellness coaching, tarot, astrology and yoga!

This is an important episode about understanding the stages of being triggered.  1. You are triggered subconsciously and you become reactive. 2. You are aware of being triggered and are still reactive. 3. You are aware of being triggered but decide to explore why without involving the source of the trigger & you take responsible actions around having that experience in the future. 4. You are no longer as triggered by things, but now you are triggering others because they are threatened by your success or happiness.  5. You are aware when you trigger others, and you have compassion, but you choose not to keep company with them any longer and find places where people can celebrate your happiness.  Welcome to your evolution, my friend! Learn how to climb this ladder out of being triggered and reactive to being happy, healthy and successful.  This is really powerful information as you learn to take back your space, and own who you are.  If you need extra support in your process of evolution, you can find me at www.juliabernbaum.com. Let's create a life you will love to live! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/julia359/support
