ep 17 | Surprise Pisces Season Forecast: Saturn–Neptune at 0° Aries, Eclipse Season, and the Run-Up to an Ultra-Aries New Year
Pisces season is the pre-beginning of the zodiac year. It is the liminal space before Aries, when things are still forming, dissolving, clarifying, and choosing. In this episode, I walk through what Pisces season tends to stir up, and why this particular Pisces season matters in a bigger, longer arc.The headline is the Saturn–Neptune conjunction at 0° Aries (Feb 20). We have been building toward this since last summer. Neptune brings the dream, the vision, the imagination. Saturn brings the structure, the commitment, the foundation that makes something real. I talk about how I’m working with it in practice: writing it down, making a plan, building scaffolding, and taking tangible steps so the vision actually has somewhere to land.From there, we move into the rest of Pisces season’s timeline: eclipse season, Mercury retrograde in Pisces, Mars entering Pisces, and the Virgo lunar eclipse that highlights the Pisces–Virgo polarity (oneness vs discernment, spirituality vs practicality, intuition vs the calendar). I close with the pivot point that changes the temperature entirely: March 20, the astrological new year, when the Sun enters Aries and Mercury stations direct, lighting up one of the most Aries-activated days I have ever seen on a chart.Episode timestamps00:00 Pisces Season Begins: Big Transits, Eclipses &amp; the ‘Grand Finale’ Energy00:48 What Pisces Really Means: Endings, Pre-Birth, Purpose &amp; Interconnectedness03:11 Saturn–Neptune at 0° Aries: Turning Dreams Into Reality (How to Work With It)06:03 Practical Manifestation Tips: Lists, Plans, and Building Saturn Scaffolding09:10 Key Dates Kick Off: Mars–Chiron + Venus Trine Jupiter (Healing Meets Ease)12:36 Mercury Retrograde in Pisces: Shadow Clues, Re-words, and Water-Sign Caution14:58 Feb 27 Power Day: Mars Square Uranus + Sun Conj North Node + Mercury Conj Venus19:10 Mars Enters Pisces: Motivation in the Mist &amp; Acting With Compassion22:24 March 3 Lunar Eclipse in Virgo: Pisces vs Virgo, Discernment, and Jupiter Release Valve27:33 Eclipse Family Themes: Looking Up Bernadette Brady’s Take28:07 Mercury Retrograde + Eclipse Season Wrap-Up: Slow Down &amp; Communicate29:55 Early March Sweet Spots: Venus–Uranus &amp; Sun–Jupiter Good Vibes31:16 Venus Enters Aries: Passion, Risk-Taking &amp; Relationship Heat32:35 March 7–8 Clarity &amp; Magnetism: Mercury Cazimi + Saturn–Neptune Activation35:24 Transformation &amp; Forward Motion: Venus–Pluto + Jupiter Stations Direct38:24 Fated Action Points: Mars–North Node &amp; Mercury–Mars During Retrograde39:45 March 18–19 Tension, Breakthroughs &amp; Healing Closure (Chiron–Eris)42:58 Astrological New Year Ignition: Sun into Aries + Mercury Direct45:45 Chart Rundown &amp; The Most Aries Day Ever: 7 Planets in Aries (March 20)50:14 Final Takeaways: Choosing the First Step Into Your New IdentityWork with meJournée (membership): Join hereCosmic Consult (1:1): Book here — we’ll look at what’s being activated in your chart and map the next right stepWhere to find mecosmicmoves.com<a href="https://www.instagram.com/cosmic.moves/" rel="noopener noreferrer"...

ep 16 | april astrology forecast: a new take on fire signs 🔥, actual new year resolutions, and an eclipse AND mercury retrograde (oh my!)
Dana and I are back for April chatting all things Aries and Fire signs (neither of us have very much Fire in our charts!) and have some surprising insights about Mars, the ruler of Aries. We pulled a card from the Starseed Oracle Deck that helps us align with the initiating energy of April. We also talk about:Continuing conversation about Pluto's move into AquariusThe softer side of Mars and how it can lead to connection and love instead of anger and separationAries as an expression of knowing yourself and having conviction, which allows for confident and quick actionUnlearning conditioning around what is "selfish"The new moon solar eclipse in AriesMercury's going retrograde this month and it's all going to be okayFlowing from fiery Aries energy to grounded Taurus this monthAsides about revolutions and Bravo“I think the other side of Mars that people forget, in terms of traditional rulership in Scorpio, is that softer side. Now we associate it with Aries and the fire and the battle, and the God of war and all of that stuff. But it's also that passion, Scorpio is the ultimate, sexy, passionate sign and we don't really associate that with Mars, but it is part of Mars is."Shared on the episode:Starseed Oracle DeckKira SutherlandPredictive Astrology by Bernadette BradyFind Lynnette:• IG: @cosmic.moves• Website• Get on the waitlist for the Cosmic Moves Membership and get your At-A-Glance Astrology Guide!Find Dana:• IG: @selfhelpwitch• Website• Grab Dana's Cosmic Witch 2023 Astrology Almanac• PodcastThe transcript of this episode can be found here.

ep 10 | an introduction to astrology as self-care
How Astrology Can Be Used For Self-CareOctober 9th, 2022In this episode, I talk about how we can use astrology as a form of self-care. Self-care is not just about bubble baths and $17 smoothies, but about aligning with your cosmic blueprint and moving to the next level in your life.Astrology and self-care have more in common than some people think, it can provide insights into our individual needs and how we can best take care of them. For example, understanding our birth chart can help us understand our natural strengths and weaknesses, and how we can use this knowledge to take care of ourselves in a way that is tailored just for us.Astrology gives us a cosmic roadmap of our energetic blueprint, that helps us proactively and intentionally take steps toward the kind of self-care that helps us discover more about ourselves and continue our personal evolution.I also remind you that you are so unique that the planets won't be in the exact same place in the sky a they are in your chart for 25,000 years! time stamps00:00:00 Solo Episode: An Introduction to Astrology as Self-Care00:02:39 What Is Self-Care?00:05:29 The Relationship Between Astrology and Self Care00:07:19 Astrology and Self-Care: Discovery00:08:17 The Power of Astrology in Understanding Yourself and Others00:10:17 How Astrology Can Help Us Understand Ourselves and Care For Our Shadow00:12:49 Astrology and Self-Care: Validation00:16:37 If It's In Your Heart, It's In Your Chart00:18:32 Contemplation Prompts00:22:49 Places In Your Chart Where You Shine00:23:47 You Are Perfectwhere to find lynnettecosmicmoves.comweekly newsletterInstagrampeople and resources mentionedMaslow's Hierarchy of NeedsAnne OrteleeThe transcript of this episode can be found here.

ep 8 | settled, not stagnant, in navigating your Saturn Return with Lucy Jobe
Have you ever wondered what the big deal is about your Saturn Return? Technically, it just means that Saturn is back to the same spot in the sky as it was when you were born, but it has quite the astrological reputation that rivals mercury retrograde!Well, my guest today, Lucy Jobe, is at the tail end of hers and is sharing all about her experience with this and a couple other milestone transits.Lucy is a Leo Sun, Sagittarius Moon, and Libra RisingShe is a project manager by day, word lover by night. A formerly grounded yogi still searching for roots in a new city. She’s lived all over the place with so many different people, and for the first time doesn’t know what’s coming next, so is learning to relax about that. She’s coping using at-home lattes, outside time, the Nashville dog rescue Instagram, Formula 1 races, and FaceTime, of course.We dig into the milestone transits that come before a 30th birthday and how to navigate them instead of being afraid of them. We also talk about Chiron and how it’s so much more than just the wounded parts of ourself.This episode is for you if you’re navigating or reflecting on your own Saturn Return or learning how to work with “challenging” planets or aspects.Over the past few years, I’ve lived in, I don’t know, three, four different places. And it’s very interesting to settle down now and to not have a next step in mind. I move really fast and I’m always like, what’s coming up next, and right now I don’t know what that is. And so sitting with that and just being comfortable being stagnant…that’s probably not the word for it…the word is probably settled, but that’s new to me. And so I’m trying to figure out what that means. - Lucy JobeLucy and I also chat about:Her background as a midwesterner and oldest of 4 sistersLiving abroad in Chile and Madrid and spending several years in CaliforniaSelling everything that didn’t fit in her car and taking a 4-month road trip across the Southwest before moving cross-countryHow her time in Chile taught her a love of being outdoorsTransitioning from constantly moving and looking toward what’s next to not knowing what’s next and feeling settledNot fully identifying with being a Leo Sun and having a Leo stelliumResonating with having a Libra rising and creating harmony between groups of peopleHaving a Sagittarius Moon and loving travel and adventureHaving your Sun conjunct Chiron in LeoFeeling “cursed” by not connecting with your Sun signAstrological stereotypesWhy we should go beyond our Sun signWhy astrologers shouldn’t guess your Sun signThe connection between astrology and yogaWhy Chiron can feel scary and how to work with itA really poor rendition of the Greek mythology behind ChironHow we often overlook the aspects of teaching, healing, and guidance with ChironHow ignoring your Saturn Return and Chiron can cause them to show up more fiercelyThe basics of what a Saturn Return isHow your Saturn Return and Uranus Trine are setting you up for your midlife transitsWhy Saturn is like a father in your chartWhy your Saturn Return is your entry into being a grown upHow to navigate a Saturn Return that retrogradesHow long you might feel your Saturn ReturnWhat happened to Lucy on the exact day of her Saturn ReturnHow having natal Saturn retrograde may support you in working with your Saturn ReturnHow to work with an opposition energy in your chartHow to read your horoscope based on what time of day you were bornWhat is your Uranus trine?Why a line a day journal is one of the best habits you can start!Using ritual to separate
