Experience Talk Cosmos on Sunday May 31 at 1:00 PM PDT! Host Sue Rose Minahan and guest Jen Sachs, a Seattle astrologer, team up again sharing insights on a long transit “Uranus square Lunar Nodes”. Uranus will be tugging at two sets of Lunar Nodes for several months as it moves slowly through Gemini. Actually beginning in April, culminating June 12, the energy extends into late July. When the Virgo Pisces Lunar Nodes complete their 18-month cycle at 0 degrees, entering the Leo Aquarius Lunar Nodal cycle at 29 degrees.Freedom calls to liberate from past emotional ties to the details that clog instead of illustrating discernment. Two months remaining for us to consciously weed away unnecessary criticism that hasn't any constructive elements. To grasp the totality of diverse ideas and perspectives and assemble attitudes incorporating a wholistic view. To understand health operates closely with a relaxed state. To resolve fragmenting categories without understanding what connects themes.Whether or not those ideas all make sense, we are undergoing an intense revitalization. Shearing what isn't working with the Virgo South Node to integrate what does with the unity oriented North Node of Pisces.Connect with inspiration!

Experience Talk Cosmos on Sunday May 17 at 1:00 PM PDT! Host Sue Rose Minahan delivers insights interweaving “Time Travel Identity Consciousness”. Astrology perceives the riddles and themes within repeating orbital cycles. Looking to the past solidifies old stories, which often spark a new chapter to develop new potential from old purposes. Yet, because some planetary cycles span enormous epochs of time, how can we grasp the past to understand the path leading us forward?As we navigate a unique set of cosmic patterns, our popular fascination with time-travel media carries a deeper message. Just as the Greek hero Theseus found his way through the Minotaur's labyrinth by unraveling a ball of yarn, we too can find clues. And because this involves the restart of a massive 6,400-year cycle, we can "bring it home" by looking at how various shorter cycles interweave.Connect with inspiration!

Join us on Talk Cosmos, Sunday 5 April 2026, 1–2 p.m. PDT (9–10 p.m. BST), for a deep encounter finishing the 8-year cycle of Uranus in Gemini NOW. Astrologer, Psychosynthesis Therapist, and Hypnotherapist Mark Jones of South Wales, UK joins host Sue 'Rose' Minahan and panel member Dr. Laura Tadd.Uranus enters Gemini for good on April 26, 2026, remaining until May 2033. Independent Uranian energies seek to liberate conditioned habits and awaken a deeper path of individuation — sparking awareness that can arrive suddenly, like bursts of electricity. Intuitive and innovative, Uranus in Gemini can bridge genius epiphanies, revealing sheer brilliance in science and technology.Evolutionary Astrology understands that Uranus also engages in one's "far memory" of deep time, touching long-past-life traumas. How might Uranus in Gemini open new channels of communication in healing the inherited wounds we've carried across the ages? Living one's greatest possibilities — shared within community — may be central to that Uranian healing process.Stay connected and subscribe at TalkCosmos.com to catch new episodes weekly on YouTube, Facebook, radio, and all major podcast platforms.MARK JONES: is an Astrologer, Psychosynthesis Therapist and Hypnotherapist based in South Wales and working with clients and students all over the world.

Join Talk Cosmos | Sunday, March 29 | 1–2 p.m. PDT about the "US 2nd Government" — What does astrology reveal about this powerful moment for America?Most people know July 4, 1776 as the birth of the United States — but that's only part of the story. The Revolutionary War began in 1775, ended in 1781, and was officially concluded with the Treaty of Paris in 1783. The first US government under the Articles of Confederation struggled to survive. So the founders built something stronger.On September 17, 1787 a new Constitution was drafted. Ratified in 1789 with a Bill of Rights protecting individual freedoms. And on March 4, 1789 — Congress convened in New York, elected officers, approved the Constitution, and reorganized the nation. That is America's 2nd Government — and it has its own astrological chart.With the US federal government and Congress front and center right now, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Join Talk Cosmos | Sunday, March 29 | 1–2 p.m. PDT about the "US 2nd Government" — What does astrology reveal about this powerful moment for America? Most people know July 4, 1776 as the birth of the United States — but that's only part of the story. The Revolutionary War began in 1775, ended in 1781, and was officially concluded with the Treaty of Paris in 1783. The first US government under the Articles of Confederation struggled to survive. So the founders built something stronger. On September 17, 1787 a new Constitution was drafted. Ratified in 1789 with a Bill of Rights protecting individual freedoms. And on March 4, 1789 — Congress convened in New York, elected officers, approved the Constitution, and reorganized the nation. That is America's 2nd Government — and it has its own astrological chart. With the US federal government and Congress front and center right now, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. Tune in Sunday for a thought-provoking hour connecting history, astrology, and the present moment.

Host Sue Rose Minahan and guest Jennifer Ng, a Canadian astrologer, are teaming up to unpack the high-energy 2026 Fire Horse Lunar New Year starting on the Solar Eclipse.This year initiates a dynamic marker within the broader celebrations observed by many nations and cultures. We'll look at the brilliant "luni-solar" system—based on the Metonic cycle—where ancient astronomers meticulously tracked the "yellow path" of the ecliptic to harmonize human life with the natural world.Coinciding with a potent Solar Eclipse in Aquarius, this year's transition is a massive catalyst for change. While the Western perspective often focuses solely on the animal sign, the Horse is a generational marker deeply influenced by elemental layers. This shifts the focus from static traits to a complex flow of supportive and transformative power. This lively discussion helps you navigate the year ahead with the bold spirit of the Fire Horse, encouraging us to look toward the skies and utilize ancient wisdom—integrating astronomy, literature, and Qi—to find more than one "exit route" through the complexities of the modern world.Stay Connected and Inspired!

“DWARF PLANET Octave Stargoals”This special presents the dynamic consciousness of three dwarf planets and their three lower octave planets. Jupiter and Quaoar, Saturn and Varuna, with Uranus and Makemake. These new energies beyond Neptune in the Kuiper Belt operate according to one's ability of awareness. Regardless, the path strives towards one of recognizing deep and perhaps unseen patterns within. On a spiritual direction, their transits offer deep transformative development integrating our emotions, heart and soul,” said Sue Minahan, founder, and host of weekly show. “And example is that Mercury is the lower octave of Uranus, so is Makemake the higher of Uranus. The mercurial focus of communication and connection bridges into the Uranian focus on elevating humanity to advocating for one's cultural group in Makemake through a winning achievement involving mentors. These are complex, but enlarge another arena which affects us on various levels.”Joining Talk Cosmos founder and eclectic evolutionary astrologer Sue Rose Minahan of Kailua Kona, Hawai'i will be special guest Melissa Elvira Billington of Brisbane, Australia.

Shannon long interest studying Sky Watching, and the Fixed Stars relates to the Native American Sacred Hoop involving a set of fixed stars. “The Ecliptic of the planet of the solar system of the sun's path intersect with the Milky Way, the plane of the galaxy of which our solar system is part. Most intriguingly, this intersection forms a “cross”, formed within the circle. It is an area of the sky associated with originating points or new beginnings over time in multitudes of cultures. Shannon's studied with Cayelin Castell who states 6500 years (ago) the equinox-based calendars emerged when the Spring Equinox was on the Galactic Cross at the Galactic edge inside the Sacred Hoop.” said Sue Minahan, founder, and host of the weekly show. “Star's seemingly fixed position provided a steady placement in the night sky. Served to guide the directions for early peoples to modern times. The fixed stars slow movement transits one degree every 72 years. Currently the Sacred Hoop Stars are in the astrological signs of Gemini and Cancer.” Join Sue Rose Minahan of Kailua-Kona, Big Island of Hawaii with November's Special Guest panel featuring SHANNON HAYES of Sedna, Arizona where the night sky is clear.
