🦁LEO NEW MOON🌑TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE 20°
Where is the 20° Leo hitting your chart? Because that is where the cosmos are urging you to Keep Going.
The asteroid Perseverance is directly in the Heart of this Total Solar Eclipse/New Moon energy at 20°, which is Such an Amazing Confirmation of All the work you've put in to get Here.
So Many of us are Truly stepping into our Souls work, on a level that will require us to be More Visible, More Vocal, More Grounded in Reality, & More Connected to the Divine.
A lot of the asteroids have only shifted slightly since the Aquarius Full Moon (I will link those posts in comments) But there are several significant places I want you to be aware of. *I Do cover this All in more depth in my recent podcast which was released last night, I will also post links in comments!
We have a T Square with Hekate 1° Pisces + North Node 29° Aquarius, opposite Circe 3° Virgo + South Node 29° Leo, squaring Uranus/Sedna. We are Truly standing in the doorway between victimhood and delusions closing us off from our greatest soul work meant to shine into the collective. The 4th leg is close to Joan of Arc in Sagittarius - 🏹 Standing in our convictions, Trusting our line to God/Goddess, & Embracing this natural transformation is open to us All.
With the Moon eclipsing the Sun in Leo, we are dealing with Pride, Arrogance, Ego-those emotions are Difficult to refine/snuff out. Our inner child Needs the courage of our Higher Self to gently peel the masks away & Lead us in the Dark.
Medusa & Persephone are still dancing in Ta**us -the stolen innocence, the forced victimization didn't End these dark Goddesses. They didn't Stay in the mindset of neglect and low self worth-they Rose into their capacity to Be Sovereign, to Judge, & to Protect. Your worth doesn't come from anything or anyone outside of you.
Kali Ma + Hope conjunct in Gemini are Still slicing away the narratives of the past, cutting us away from old perceptions & instilling Hope in a place previously void.
Pallas & Vesta in Aries are continuing to Amplify Neptune/Saturn Retro energy here-you Have to Face the illusions in your Own Mind, Focus on Your internal purpose, and Break free from the Anger holding you hostage. When you're in Integrity to your Own story, you Inevitably become the warrior your line has waited on.
The Inner Child + Kassandra have been traveling together and are now in Cancer, along with Mars & Lilith. Where has the conditioning from the feminine taught you to distrust your own Intuition & how can you Heal that through self nurturing and Assertiveness about what you will no longer cling to because your family/this world conditioned you to have to prove yourself?
Hygeia/Psyche 10° Leo, amongst Jupiter, Sun, Moon, Perseverance, & Isis - this is energy which reinforces the whispers of our family preventing us from our journey forth. It's time to Heal the stories that you Embodied in your heart, your blood, your Spine-and you do this through consistent, holistic & preventative routines. It's Important to make Sure that Joy, Happiness and PLAY are part of those regular routines.
Fixed Grand Cross:
Cloelia + Chiron are Both at 0° - a new Karmic Cycle of Embodied senses, vocalized worth, stability forged through the courage to Liberate yourself First. When you are willing to be Brave, you show everyone else what is possible. It's time to Alchemize those wounded inner Narratives into someone that serves the collective - Not in a self sacrificial/proving your worth way-in a Steady, Willing to Stand Alone, I Refuse to Be Caged by this Pain way.
Mercury in Leo-I Loveee the Radiant & Strong Spine Vibe this energy brings. The higher Expression of this is Courage to let Your Joy & Light Shine into this world. The lower vibe is indulging the ego driven, arrogant child who can only be seen through tantrums because they've yet to Truly step into their cause in a healthy way. We can see this everywhere right now in comment sections and the crazy just seems to be amping up.
With Jupiter Squaring Neptune/Saturn, this Can bring Massive amounts of Integrity and standing In that backbone, forcing others to accept the consequences of living in their deluded make believe, masked, upside down world. But the demons are doubling down and they aren't going quietly, so tread carefully in responses because Saturn will keep us All accountable, one way or another.
Dejanira in Scorpio is a reminder that the wound IS the Medicine. The betrayal, the victimization, the deceit Is what leads us into self, & it is in the Underworld where we can choose to reclaim our agency Or remain in darkness of what others have done to us.
With Hylonome/Pluto finishing off this Fixed Grand Cross, these energies are going to feel like a sharp & electrifying ending. Transformation requires the death of our old self and there Will be Grief to acknowledge as we surrender to the Burn and purification of generations of living Out of Alignment.
In my Leo New Moon podcast, I actually delve into each of the Grand Cross energies through the lens of the Sabian Symbols, and as always, it Beautifully ties it ALL together!
We are Collectively restructuring our foundational reality - look at the masks that are falling away, the Truths being dredged up through the darkness, & the Awakening happening for Humanity. Bringing in more Light requires a Purging of the Darkness. Don't Quit. This eclipse is refining you from the wounded child into the resourceful healer, who becomes such by allowing their True nature to be Embodied, Valued, & Vocalized.

There's Still Time to Join Sacred Displeasure!!!
I can't lie - I am Really Over the madness on socials. I've been writing my little heart out here for 6Yrs and even though I've connected with Absolutely Incredible women, there is the Inevitable nastiness that now exists in these spaces & it is really impacting my mental health.
I am grounded in reality, want holistic ways to move forward, and want to connect with women who aren't afraid of Underworld work. If you're curious about a more holistic journey, if you're not averse to self reflection & accountability, if you're looking to learn more about astrology, Herbalism, & somatic Embodiment rituals, I'd Love to invite you to a more Intimate & Private space-Full of knowledge where you can Receive, Concentrate, & Breathe.
Instead of burning everything to the ground & completely removing myself from socials, I've started moving my voice to writing on Substack, speaking on my Spotify podcast, and my new Private Women's Telegram channel!!! 🤩
So far there are 5 women that have joined to learn more about self reclamation, self advocacy, & agency. *Please know I Literally fist pumped when y'all joined!*
This work is a labor of Love and when I can help another woman, it means Everything to me. When I started Substack, I wondered if anyone would care what I had to say-but I've now reached over 110 subscribers - & I Pray to fill my new telegram channel the same way.
Excavation of the Soul serves as a one way radio station where you receive:
✍️ Journal Prompts/Mantras
🌿 Herbal Knowledge
🏹 Authentic Shares
🌠 Astrology Insights
🧘♀️ Embodiment Rituals
📚 Book Recommendations
🥁 Empowering Anthems/Healing Frequencies
And More! I've Never done this so I'm learning as I go, but if you've ever invested in me you Know you get a Ton of information to sift through!
Right now, I'm currently running an 8day Immersion called "Sacred Displeasure" which is specifically for women who struggle with speaking up or who are learning to say No. It's a practice in self loyalty & learning where the roots of people pleasing begin, so we can start shifting into more sovereignty in our lives.
In this 'Sacred Displeasure' space, we'll be traversing 8 gates of Initiation:
Gate 1-The People Pleaser
Gate 2-The Wound
Gate 3-The Body
Gate 4-The Guilt
Gate 5-The Displeasure
Gate 6-The Grief
Gate 7-The Sacred NO
Gate 8-The Integration
If you're someone that struggles with saying no, disappointing others, or aligning with your values in the face of confrontation, this experience is designed for you!
You don't have to be present-you can listen when it's convenient for You, BUT this Immersion will end on 8/14! 👇 Join us below!

VENUS IN LIBRA ♎⚖️♀️🪞💘
I know a lot of people are So excited about this and astrologers everywhere are talking about how Amazing it's going to be...
But I'm here to burst that bubble and keep it So for Real with you. 🤌
Does Venus LOVEEE to be in Libra? 💯 Yes, Venus Loves being in Libra because it Rules Libra (& Ta**us) -
But, Libra is about Harmony, Balance, Fairness, Scales or Justice. It's an air sign denoting perception & Wisdom.
And Venus doing her Thang in Libra is Dependent upon how you're working your Ta**us energy.
Venus also Rules the earth energy of Ta**us, so one Must be grounded in her worth, her Abundance, Embodying her Senses, & Vocalizing it.
And So Many of us Not Only carry Chiron in Ta**us (the wounded Healer who deals with Horrific narratives around self worth/value/financial scarcity) But we Also have PLUTO IN LIBRA-which means Many of us are Going Through IT in Relationships.
So, Venus in Libra is going to Amplify that. Venus's glyph is a Mirror for a Reason-she asks you to Reflect on what Your Values are. At the end of the day, Despite wanting harmonious relationships and Balance, we ALL know the relationships we've been keeping for Decades have been Unbalanced, Unfair, and Self Silencing to Keep fake peace....
But Pluto/Juno in Aquarius is dredging UP the shadows of the collective so we can Really look at where we're simultaneously giving our power away AND complaining it's being stolen. *Veritas is also in Aquarius, Black Moon Lilith/Grief are in Sagittarius (🏹 arrows of Repression/Truth piercing the collective!)
Venus in Libra Will Demand that we Rectify the shadows that prevent Embodiment of our Values and this is ALL being Exacerbated by the Other transits happening!
We've had Pele/Dejanira in Libra-the relationships where we've drank the poison of people pleasing have been simmering with Rage under the surface..Venus Will be conjuncting with these asteroids in the coming weeks.
We have Karma in Scorpio AND Saturn is Retrograding in Aries + Neptune is in Aries. The delusional dreams that we floated by with Neptune/Saturn in Aries are ALL up for Review. ***& VENUS WILL GO RETROGRADE IN LIBRA 22°-SCORPIO 8° IN THE COMING WEEKS sooooo ya betta Get Yo A$$ Right!!
The s**t we kept running away from, downplaying, escaping from is Back with a Vengeance and Saturn (the Lord of KARMA) is giving us a face full of Consequences until December if we do Not Act in Integrity to SELF.
With Jupiter in Leo, Yessss this amplifies the healing of the inner child-but it Also inflames the EGO of our inner brats who have a flare for the dramatic.
Lilith and Mars will be in Cancer-the Feminine who has submitted So Many Times before is DONEEEE.
IF you've been doing the work of these transits and sitting in the difficult energy and Being Honest with Self and those you're in relationship with, this can be a time of Truly Divine Expansion together.
And Goddess Knows we Deserve it. These transits (& hormones) have been wreaking havoc in So Many ways, but they are Truly helping us to Clear the Muck.
The longer you cling to the old, the more you Fight this Global Recalibration, the more you Silence yourself to be palatable - the more you will suffer.
*& This Doesn't Mean Vomiting Filth from the Mouth because You Deem it to be true. There are ways to Be Diplomatic & Loving in your approach (Even with the Repressed Rage it's possible to Channel it in an Assertive manner).
The thing about the transits is God, Goddess, Universe Knows when you're doing the work and avoiding the work and we receive accordingly. Not to mention, we are in the Eclipse portal coming up next wk, so wherever you have Leo 20° you betta Get Ready!
*More on that in my private group!!
If this hits for you, if you're working on these themes in relationships, if you're learning how to speak up for yourself, I Just Opened my Private Women's Telegram channel called EXCAVATION OF THE SOUL 🤩⚔️🎇 We are collectively working on an 8day Immersion called "Sacred Displeasure" and it's a practice in Sept Loyalty, Even when it displeases Others. It's about reclaiming Your Sacred NO. I would Love to have you there! Comment SOUL or share with me how this resonates for you in comments and I will give you the Link! 😘

GRAND CROSS ✝️ SPIRITUAL WARFARE
The most dangerous war taking place is the one being waged on our BodyMindSpirit by the media, by a Dark government that breeds Deceit, by those Unwilling to draw Hard lines in the sand between right and wrong.
What have these past 6yrs (this one especially) taught you about the media? Outsourcing your health/common sense to the Experts?
Who pays for the Science we should be Trusting? How can we 'Trust the Science' with So many Blatant Lies being displayed in our face? How does Cancel Culture force us into Submission to the Abuse tactics like gaslighting meant to dismantle our survival instincts?
"If you control perception, you control reality."
-Ginny & Georgia
In this latest podcast, I'm exploring the Mutable Grand Cross between:
✨Ceres/Mars in Gemini
✨Venus in Virgo
✨Nessus in Pisces
✨Black Moon Lilith/Grief in Sagittarius
These energies are at the base of what we're seeing in the media with Fauci, Cunningham, & Kirk and in the age of AI & Lies begs the question What Can We Believe?
These energies are related to ancestral imprints stored in the nervous system & lymph, impacting our gut and Ability to DISCERN.
Greed/Darkness Feeds on trauma, which creates a Perfect container for conditioning through Overwhelm/Desensitization. Add in horror after horror to a frenzied nervous system and eventually things start shorting out (mostly your ability to Know what's real).
And when you don't know what real, don't have a line to faith, when you forget your humanity because of the Rage that has been simmering for generations - you are So Much easier to emotionally manipulate and control.
I get very Raw & Very Real in my latest Spotify/Substack Podcast. Listen if you Dare. 😘

"I don't want to be mean."
"I don't know how to say No."
"I'm not good at speaking up for myself."
Abandoning your needs, Relinquishing your Voice, or Silencing your Truth doesn't make you mean Or Good -
It Does generally leave one Resentful, Depleted, Bitter, Exhausted, & Still Desperate to Believe someone outside of you determines your worth.
My s❌trauma, the Grief from loss, and my mother wounds All set a foundation for Repeated Self Abandonment in pursuit of being viewed as 'Good'. No matter how Much I tried to Prove my Worth by stuffing down my perspective & Intuition, it Never seemed Enough for people that frankly Did Not Even Deserve my Presence anyway.
When we are clambering to be witnessed, chosen, 'accepted' we Sacrifice So Much of ourselves.
When we Understand the Root cause of these behaviors, Align with our Values, and Understand our Unique Soul blueprint, we can support ourselves through difficult conversations that doesn't leave us constantly screaming inside, deepening our self shame process.
I've created a private women's telegram channel to have these more intimate conversations around Feminine Wounding, natal placements that perpetuate conditioning, Embodiment rituals, herbal nourishment, and learning effective self advocacy techniques that can alleviate the hesitation that comes with choosing Yourself.
This portal is an 8day Immersion experience called Sacred Displeasure-because being able to Confidently say NO is the first step in restoring the agency that has been stolen from us All.
Comment SOUL and I will put links here tomorrow evening!! 😘

Life Lately 🌸🪻
I've been going non-Stop 🫠 New Massage clients, processing new tincture blends, writing Substacks & releasing new podcasts, creating a private women's space on Telegram, & trying to make room for moments to Breathe in between everything.
I have two new reviews from new massage clients which Always makes me feel So Grateful & Replenished for the hands on work I put into this world. Creating an environment in which people feel safe to leave behind the worries of the world (if only for 90min) means Everything to me. People are carrying So Much & most have nowhere to go with it. My massage table is a sanctuary that creates serenity and I am Forever Honored by the clients who choose to receive safe and therapeutic touch from me.
During the Full Moon in Aquarius last wk I made my Own Serenity appointment with my acupuncturist. Uranus (which rules Aquarius and is currently in Gemini) governs the nervous system, Leo (where Sun is transiting) governs circulation - acupuncture is a Perfect tool for Recalibration. My session was centered around grief/anger release and essentially served as a "de amouring" ritual. The points activated Immediately stimulated an emotional release and it is always fascinating to me how Much we're Holding inside that we're not aware of. I supplement my acupuncture appointments with my own herbal tincture, for this one I took my "Let That S**t Go" which pairs perfectly with the points for releasing stagnant grief/rage.
I had dinner with a friend, rode in a fire truck, and spent the day at my Favorite place with my hubby. In between writing/massaging/creating I am doing my best to be lifting 2-3x/wk and walking.
I've also reached 100 Subscribers to my Substack which feels Amazing. Most of the work I Pour into the world feels unnoticed & like I'm screaming into a void. A review, referral, comment/share are Small reinforcements to me that what I'm doing makes a difference in the world. *I think I'm Feeling that Chiron Retrograde in Ta**us sitting on the last degrees of my chart and hitting my AC. The transits continue to pummel me & today I feel tired, so I'm making time to soak in the tub and give myself a rest.
I'm working on a podcast for the Mars/Ceres in Gemini Grand Cross that is perfectly aligned with what we're seeing in the news cycles and that should be out tonight. *Everything you Read from me is generated from ME. I get down on myself some days because I see others cranking out content, but I also know half of what is being put out these days is AI and a Lot of people either have staff or are solely focused on astrology write ups. I'm still simultaneously growing my massage/astrology/herbal practice with Substack/Spotify, it's definitely a juggle!
Which brings me to - this Thursday I will open the portal to my private Telegram. This is something I've been wanting to create for awhile, something more intimate, quieter, away from the noise of socials-a place for people who Want to hear my Voice where you will actually See my updates. The algorithms Suck and much of my stuff doesn't get seen here for days, if at All. It feels like a LOT of Time pouring into something that just gets lost in the noise, and creating the telegram channel is about serving women that Truly Align with my work and this path.
I'm offering an 8day Immersion called 'Sacred Displeasure' where we will be peeling back layers around the root of people pleasing, where those tendencies lie in our natal chart, & how to Embrace, Embody, & Voice our Sacred NO.
At the end of the 8days you will have an opportunity to invest in my women's channel, EXCAVATION OF THE SOUL, where you will be receiving Daily updates on cosmos, Embodiment rituals, book recommendations, journal prompts, & authentic, Raw Real Life examples of How to Integrate All of this.
I've been sharing about this in previous posts, my Substack articles, and podcast -
I Love the idea of a private radio channel because you can listen when it's convenient for You-& I can share downloads Immediately to You!
If you're curious about this please see previous posts, subscribe to my Substack, follow my Spotify, and comment SOUL below! 👇
I will be releasing the link to join Wednesday night! 😘

When did you swallow your first No?
I vividly remember my first brave no-it was to someone who was like family but was making me feel very icky in my 5yo body…
He told me to ‘stop being a baby.’
That sentence set the stage for decades of sexual trauma, self-harm, & immense shame-all a perfect foundation for creating a people pleasing fixer who felt debilitated by the prospect of disappointing others.
In my pursuit of self-possession, pleasure, & Joy-I knew I would have to learn to live in the crime scene of my own BodyMindSpirit, where every victimization took place, where every scream was silenced, where every fear led me into deeper self-abandonment & away from the truth of how powerful my voice is…
I was once on the path to becoming a forensic anthropologist & a criminal profiler-something about the imagery of a woman being Dug out of the Muck that life had buried her in called to my soul, because I Know she still has a story to tell and her voice matters. After 6yrs of working with women around grief, sexual trauma, addiction, su***de, self-harm, shame & Darkness-I knew this was what I Had to name my private women’s group.
‘Excavation’ means to “unearth, uncover, or reveal” -
Who is the woman that still exists buried beneath the wounds that have shaped you?
EXCAVATION OF THE SOUL portal opens this Thursday 8/6!
This latest Substack article explores the themes we will be working around in my private women's telegram channel. Please Subscribe and comment SOUL for links! 😘
Self-Possession & Sacred Displeasure: Owning Your Voice When did you swallow your first No?
What parts of yourself have you buried to survive?
How do you Abandon yourself to comfort others?
Have you been labeled Crazy for speaking Truth?
All women reach a point where our MindBodySpirit forces us to confront the people pleasing, performance, & self Silencing we have Endured.
At that juncture, we have an opportunity to either suffer the consequences of Silencing our Soul-or be Deemed a Villain by those who benefit from controlling us.
I'm creating a Sanctuary for the Women who are Done moving through life without their Voice.
Excavation of the Soul is a sacred space for women ready to journey into the dark crevices of their Soul—not to become someone new, but to remember the woman who has always existed beneath conditioning, grief, trauma, betrayal, and self-abandonment.
Together we'll explore the psyche through archetypal astrology, myth, embodiment rituals, nervous system healing, herbal restoration, and cosmic alchemy.
We'll meet the parts of ourselves that are labeled "too much," "too emotional," "too angry," or "crazy."
Together we'll discover how those parts have been protecting the Power of our Sacred Truth.
Because the darkness & the trauma isn't where your light disappears-it's where you Find the Treasure.
It's where your power, voice, agency & Sacred NO have been waiting to be reclaimed.
Welcome to the Descent.
Portal opens August 6th.
