About this episode

This episode discusses the astrological implications of the New Moon in Taurus and the Mars-Pluto square, focusing on personal growth and awareness.

What if the ground beneath you isn’t breaking — it’s being tilled? This month, astrology asks you to feel the difference between what is comfortable and what is genuinely sustainable. With a New Moon in Taurus on the fixed star Algol, followed by Mars entering Taurus and squaring Pluto in Aquarius, you’re not being asked to change everything overnight. You’re being asked to recognize where you’ve outgrown your own foundations. The sequence is tight: a Mercury cazimi, a New Moon, then Mars square Pluto over ten days. Clarity, intention, and pressure arrive almost as one. For each rising sign, the co-hosts walk through where this Taurus-Aquarius axis lands in your chart — resources, routines, relationships, or home. The question isn’t whether something will shift. It’s whether you’ll meet it with awareness or resistance. 🤝 SHARE THIS EPISODE: https://youtu.be/7idMHviTpH0 The soul doesn’t ask you to abandon what you love. It asks you to stop pretending that what no longer sustains you is still safe. This Mars-Pluto square reveals where attachments have become liabilities, and where loyalty to the past has quietly become a cage. Listen for your rising sign. You’re not here to move…
