scorpio full moon: surrender to grief w. death doula Karolina Castro

This month we are being called to embrace the collective interdependence being modeled on the streets by protestors & organizers while simultaneously rejecting the idea that we have to look to the state, religious leaders, or celebrities for solutions and guidance. Each of us are made up of cosmic matter that acts as a compass toward a higher collective consciousness. We don’t have to look outside of ourselves to ascend!

sagittarius full moon: we are the stars

This is an edit of my original conversation (7.5.2020) with astrologer Giselle Castaño discussing the USA's Pluto Return and the Cancerian medicine that will see us through. I provide context about the Mars in Aries energy we have been and will be experiencing for the latter half of 2020 and it's retrograde from September 9th - November 13th.
