Taurus Season April 19th - May 20th 2025 This episode offers our Taurus season Tarot forecast plus tarot associations for Taurus - The Hierophant - and Earth (Pentacles). This episode may have more significance for Taurus natives (Sun, rising, or moon in Taurus). Taurus Season Significance: Sun in Taurus marks a shift into grounded practicality, stability, loyalty, and resilience after the fiery initiation of Aries. Energetically supports taking inventory of what we have and what we want moving forward. A favorable time to continue action on plans from fall and winter – be persistent and rest in equal measure. Offers roots to new ideas and dreams, emphasizing hard work alongside experiencing the pleasures of the earth. Taurus Frequency and The Hierophant Card: Taurus is traditionally associated with The Hierophant in the major arcana of the Tarot The Hierophant card: A spiritual teacher or guide figure Holding a staff or scepter (symbol of authority and guidance). Often with two kneeling figures before him (students or followers). The Hierophant embodies tradition, established systems, wisdom passed down, and guidance through conventional means. It represents learning, mentorship, and connecting with established beliefs and structures. Imbalance: Dogmatism, blind adherence to rules, stifling individuality, outdated traditions, hypocrisy. Key message: Seek wisdom through established channels, understand the value of tradition but don't get locked into it, find guidance from trusted sources, be your own trusted source, go the weird way rather than follow the herd.. Questions to consider: Who are your trusted mentors or guides? How can you learn and grow within existing teachers? Are there any outdated beliefs holding you back? How can you add your own magic to your spirituality experience? Invitation to harness grounded/stable/earth aspects: What can you cultivate and nurture for long-term security? How can you open the doorways between the seen and the unseen? How can you expand your mystical knowledge? Reframing tradition: Recognizing the value of established wisdom while remaining open to evolution and personal truth. Taurus as an Earth Sign: Earth element in tarot is represented by Pentacles (or Coins). Earth signifies practicality, stability, material resources, the physical body, sensuality, and groundedness. The Spirit in Which to Move Through This Taurus Season: Single card tarot reading to guide us in this cycle Additional Resources: Activate 30 - days Guest Access on UnicornWellnessStudio.com Offering 30-min classical Pilates workouts in alignment to the astrological season and lunar cycles and Tandy's 41-day food reset at this link here in preparation of the astrological new year.

Encourages continued action on longer-term plans, emphasizing persistence with mindful rest. Offers a grounding for new ideas and dreams, highlighting the importance of both hard work and earthly pleasures. Taurus Frequency: Imbalance : Over-reliance on tradition, resistance to new ideas, rigidity. Key message: Seek wisdom through established paths, value grounded guidance, and learn through consistent practice.

Invitation to harness grounded/sensual/earth aspects: This season emphasizes grounded roots and sensual pleasures in the 3D experience of body, mind, and spirit. It encourages connecting with the physical world through movement and the senses. The season supports building a stable foundation through consistent effort and appreciating the tangible aspects of life. Taurus as an Earth Sign: Taurus is a fixed earth sign.

The Universe is bringing your attention to 24 to 27 deg Pisces in your chart as Mercury, Venus, Saturn, and the North Node all create a stellium of focus here for most of April. Mercury stations direct on April 7, Venus stations direct on April 12, and Saturn will be conjunct the North Node at 26 degrees Pisces on April 14. Pisces growth occurs through letting go, unraveling, and completing what is no longer needed for the next cycle, as well as honoring what your intuitive is saying and how you are feeling. This is a time of serious considerations, adjustments, choice points, and conscious reflection on what you need to take care of, most likely on your own. The ruler of Pisces, Neptune, is now in Aries, signaling that it is time to complete what has been lingering so you can move on to the new dream that will be appearing into 2026.

In this episode, we delve into the profound significance of the Hermit archetype as the card of 2025. This year presents a unique opportunity for introspection, guiding us towards inner peace, self-discovery, and a deeper connection to our authentic selves. Join us as we explore the rich imagery of the Hermit card, its powerful call to action, potential challenges, and the transformative magic it holds for us in the year ahead. Wel also explore the connection to the goddess Hekate and how to navigate this liminal space with trust and intention. Key Discussion Points: The Numerology of 2025 and the Hermit: Understanding why the year 2025 aligns with the energy of the Hermit in tarot. Deconstructing the Hermit Imagery (Smith Rider Waite): The older figure and white beard: Symbolism of wisdom and experience. The cloak: Representing the need for privacy and turning inward. The lantern with the six-pointed star: Inspired guidance and illumination from within. The staff: Personal strength, authority, and groundedness. The snowy, isolated terrain: The potentially uncomfortable but necessary conditions for self-reflection. The blue and gray coloring: Spiritual communication, peace, intuition, emotional intelligence, and persistence. The Hermit's Call to Action: The importance of scheduled and consistent alone time for reflection and integration. Reclaiming our attention and focusing on our inner thoughts and feelings. Planning our way forward from a place of inner understanding. Distinguishing between conscious retreat and isolation. The influence of the Pisces and Virgo nodes on our spiritual hygiene and inner trust. Traditional Messages of the Hermit: Embrace Solitude: Making quiet reflection a necessity, not a luxury. Seek Inner Guidance: Trusting your intuition and authentic path. Cultivate Self-Awareness: Exploring values and beliefs through spiritual practices (meditation, somatics, hydration). Recruit Wise Mentors: Seeking guidance from experienced individuals and understanding the balance between external advice and internal processing. Integrate Learning: Reflecting on past experiences and implementing lessons learned. The Hermit's Challenges to Be Mindful Of: Excessive Isolation: The importance of community and balance. Overthinking: Avoiding getting stuck in analysis paralysis. Seeking External Validation: Building trust in your own judgment.

Embracing our unique life journey. Learning to navigate and find power within the liminal space. The Hermit as the Mentor in Liminal Space: Understanding the "winding liminal space" and the importance of trust and surrender. Distinguishing between being alone and feeling lonely. The role of spiritual guides and our Higher Self. Connecting the Hermit to Hekate: The symbolism of the lantern and solitary journey. Hekate as the Mother of All Witches guiding us towards wise decisions. Her call to choose our path, cultivate discernment, and take action. Understanding the "deathly quiet" of Hekate and the importance of inner work. Practical ways to connect with Hekate during this time. The Hermit and the Sign of Virgo: Amplified Virgo energetics in 2025 due to the North Node. Moving beyond non-benevolent aspects of Virgo (perfectionism, over-analyzing). Embracing the messiness of human emotions and the power of "I don't know." Powerful Questions for Hermit Season (2025): What influences me when I'm not being influenced? What do I believe or not believe now that I used to believe before?

This is one of three Lilith placements in a chart, so please know they each represent something slightly different. Black moon Lilith is a mathematical point in the sky that represents the farthest shadow cast from our personal moon. It represents our deepest shadow in this lifetime and will absolutely always have something to do with our sexuality, perspectives on sex, particularly if/where it breeds shame or judgement. Short cut here - Lilith wants you to have a healthy relationship to sex and says nothing is off limits if it's consensual and safe. Lilith teaches us judgments all need to be tempered with 'says who?' and 'consider the source' as well as our classic 'is this equitable...and to who?'. Black Moon Lilith spends nine months in each sign. A gestation period. A nod to her as a goddess of blood, sex magic, and womb space healing. She moves through the chart lighting up our shame and shadows to illuminate for reclamation and empowerment. She challenges all things that try to make us feel small or 'under' another. She is the epitome of dismantling internalized patriarchy. She is voice and communication. And she will test us. When this placement moves into Scorpio she pushes us as a collective to go into all the taboo spaces. Wednesday, March 26th: - First Day of New Moon Eclipse Energy. New moons ask us to go dark, just like them. Hermit away. Meditate, rest and restore. It's an incredibly magical time in the cycle and the eclipse ramps it up. Prioritize whatever it is you need in order to continue towards your goals. - EP 122 on The Magic Spark. Is a surprise! As I write this newsletter I'm not sure the best route to take for this episode. It might be an audio offering on The Hermit card (the card of 2025), the audio of the new moon eclipse reading, or a personal note of additional channeled messaging mid-week. - Day 1 of New Moon Ease #1 - You'll need a yoga strap for this workout, but a scarf, belt or towel can work in a pinch. This is the first of our two constructive rest videos under this new moon cycle. It's week 1 of our 4 week training cycle. It's the best time to begin a mat practice with me, or to return. It's all flexibility and mobility. If you've been with me then this is the time when the work we've done prior transitions into results. If you're just starting, you begin soft and ramp up into the practice at its most supported pacing. Thursday, March 27th: - Venus Rx backtracks into Pisces. Venus loves to be here. This is her home domain of exaltation. She's had her spa day with the sun (the cazimi) and she's floating on her back in a dreamy ocean of potential. This could feel like a bit of the love (or dopamine) has come back to your life. This is her second pass at a path she has already tread. It may offer a rebirth of hope and potential. She's still helping us reevaluate what brings us pleasure and joy in all the realms; partnership, glamour, finances....if you feel like you don't know who you are right now or what you like...our lady Aphrodite will take the blame. - Venus Neptune Conjunction. And on the very same day our goddess has a tight passage with Neptune. Her higher octave. Dreams, delusions, and all the sensual pleasures. Again, a wild card. We don't know how it will really shake out for each of us. Could be the sweetest kiss of pleasure and trusting what we like and brings us satisfaction. It could equally be a place where we're faced with the delusions of what we keep saying will please us but there are hidden enjoyments wanting to burst through the surface. This could be a confusing trigger or a bold recognition. Ultimately it is divine feminine healing. Lean in. Stay curious. Tread with soft grace through it. Friday, March 28th: - Aphrodite's Day It's time to ask: What does my inner goddess need in order to remember she is sacred, divine, and designed to receive? Give awareness to something that soothes, delights, or pleases you. This is ritual. This is sacred. Stand at your altar, in a mirror, or outdoors for this. Connection & reflection are the words this week. Saturday, March 29th: - Day 1 of New Moon Ease #2 - You'll need a set of yoga blocks for this workout. More yummy new moon restoration work. We cover a lot of ground in this one from floor to standing. You'll see sufi rolls, a signature shoulder girdle series, classics like pigeon, down dog and a twisted child's pose, moving into standing hip circles with a classic triangle series. It opens all the nooks and crannies for flow. - New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Aries. This is a flip of the switch for all things Aries. The Universe says 'We're going to try turning it off and on...again'. This lunation completes the eclipse cycle of July 17th, 2023 - January 11th, 2025. The major changes and big pivots have already happened (we hope) and this lunation says this is truly a fresh start and new beginning of potential in the themes of the house Aries sits in in your chart. If you don't know what house Aries sits in for you...it will absolutely be about your empowered leadership in your own life. How do you lead your own narrative? What new narrative will you launch and move forward with with restored and energized resources? - Mercury Rx backtracks into Pisces. Do we see the game of pacman happening between Aries and Pisces and Venus and Mars this year? Back and forth across the board, multiple times. It's real. There is something about our psychic gifts, spirituality, release, grief, mourning, loss and our benevolent, self centric energy of personal leadership in our individual and collective lives happening. Mercury doesn't so much thrive swimming backwards, but it will once again shift our communication styles to more emotional. More tender. It will once again heighten our intuition and the messages making it through from the unseen. Sunday, March 30th: - Neptune moves into Aries. This is epic news. No dramatization in this sentence. This is big. Remember your Moonday news from last week? When we talked about the Neptune cazimi? Welp, today is one of the days that change everything. Here's a tiny recap; Neptune hasn't been in Aries since the 1860's. This offers us a complete refresh of what we might dream into, removing delusions. This is considered a new era of creativity and innovation that has so much to do with leadership and identity. It offers societal shifts. This of course is happening for the collective world stage as well as in our personal lives. Around here we focus on the personal to make the butterfly effect in the collective. The last time Neptune was here was 1862 - 1875. This was revolution, it's bound to be that again...but with a different story line. - Mercury Neptune Conjunction. Another wildcard. It's like bumper cars in the cosmos these days. Mercury and Neptune squeak past each other today. Offering either a new entrepreneurial partnership between the higher octave of Venus (Neptune) and our trickster chatterbox Mercury. Remember that Venus and Mercury are both tricksters...they love a good plot twist. They love to make people sweat it out to have something beautiful happen. They equally love to stir up chaos that amounts to nothing, for pure amusement. - Your weekly offering: This life is ever spiraling cycles of connection and reflection. Sometimes we connect. Sometimes we need to disconnect. This time we stand in assessment of where we are and what we need. We respond and support what the body tells us - do we need to connect or disconnect. No more should's. No more supposed to's. Less pro-con lists. More navigating by our soul compass. Our 3D lives are reflections of both connection & disconnection. Sometimes thriving. Sometimes flailing. What has it been more of the time than not? Therein lies the answer. Adjust accordingly. On the daily. In honor of your soul. In honor of your intuition. In honor of your magic. In honor of you. because... YOU are the magic.

Aries Season Tarot Forecast March 20th - April 18th, 2025 In this episode we dive deep into Aries season, running from March 20th - April 18th, 2025. This season is a major transition point for the entire year! Fresh starts and new beginnings are here. The Sun moves into Aries on March 20th, 2025. Marking the Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere. Globally recognized as the astrological new year! Universal Energies, Different Seasons Both Northern and Southern Hemispheres experience the same zodiacal energies simultaneously. Farewell Pisces, Hello Aries: Shifting Energies Transition from the compassionate, creative, intuitive energy of Pisces. Aries season ushers in: bravery, ambition, independence, creativity, impulsivity, impatience, quick temper, and headstrong mood swings. Time for Action: From Planning to Doing Aries season is the time to act on plans made during fall and winter. "Go time!" - Plant, do, shift, change, or start! The completion point of 2024 is officially here. March 20th, 2025, marks the true beginning of the new year. The Tangible Shift: Dreams into Action The host's personal favorite transition - the tangible feeling of change. Wake up and things feel different - a call to action on dreams. Simple concept: take dreams and put them into action. Encouragement to take small or large steps forward towards goals. Small steps accumulate over time. The marathon analogy: focus on crossing the finish line, not necessarily being first. Pace yourself. What You Need to Know: The Current Cycle The Nodes of Fate: Pisces/Virgo Axis Continues Influence continues through July 2026. Focus on balancing feelings with astute processing. Discerning between feelings and facts. Navigating new and unusual energies. Importance of a relationship with spirituality. Working to release perfectionism or feelings of futility. Emphasis on tiny and mighty day-to-day actions supported by spiritual practices. Significant Shifts in This Cycle March 27th: Venus Retrograde Enters Pisces Venus passed her halfway point in retrograde. Emergence as the morning star after her "powerwash" from the sun. Evaluate what no longer serves wants, wishes, desires, pleasures, and finances. Potential for insights and answers on how to shift forward. March 29th: New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Aries Energetic lightswitch flickering on and off. Offering a truly new fresh start in the astrological house it occupies in your natal chart. This house has undergone a full eclipse season refresh, release, and restart (nodes in Aries/Libra July 2023 - Jan 2025). Exciting and seemingly softer than past eclipses due to prior release work. This eclipse feels like saying yes to an opportunity before feeling fully ready, with the Universe indicating readiness for growth. A "good growth" eclipse versus a painful one. March 29th: Mercury Retrograde Enters Pisces Mercury continues its retrograde journey, moving back into Pisces. Potential feeling of stagnation or moving backward when forward momentum is desired. Feels like revisiting old lessons or losing something again. Backtrack into Pisces may evoke feelings from the distant past. Not just about exes resurfacing, but a final cleanup of "ghosts of Christmases past." March 30th: Neptune Enters Aries - HUGE NEWS! Neptune spends approximately 14 years in a single zodiac sign (168-year cycle). Last time in Aries: 1861-1873. An energy signature no one alive has experienced. High vibration; Neptune as the higher octave of Venus, governing dreams, intuition, spirituality, and delusions. Capacity for cleansing, clearing, and offering massive dream and manifestation potential. Can also bring chaos and destruction for reimagining and rebuilding. Uncertainty about how this new 14-year signature will play out. Old ways are definitely up for destruction. Question: What new dream will we create? Personal impact: Focus on the house Aries occupies in your natal chart for bold new dreams. Emphasis on fresh, strong, new, and spiritually grounded dreams. Abundance flowing from imagination and magic. Call to honor ocean goddesses (and Aphrodite) if it resonates. April 7th: Mercury Stations Direct Relief from communication, schedule, and financial snags. This marks the third pass over the same ground in the last four weeks. Two-week post-shadow period as Mercury regains speed. The third pass offers the final lesson or blessing from recent events. Encouragement to stay present and grounded. Pause and take breaths before responding. Direct station in Pisces: deep feels, tears, release, and healing are prominent. April 12th: Full Moon in Libra Gratitude to the goddesses, eclipse season is over until September! A regular full moon for revealing and releasing (in that order). All clear for spellcasting! Libra focus: balance, people-pleasing, and surface beauty. Community call-out (with a nod to Kali Ma) for individual scales of Justice. April 12th: Venus Direct - WHEEE! Blessed be, Aphrodite is reborn! Stations direct in Pisces, bringing a dreamy quality. Tenderness, emotions, and tears likely herald the healing that has occurred. Tears of growth, gratitude, and honoring the inner child/teen and current soul self. This deep cleanse cycle returns "YOU" to yourself at a heart-centric level. Clarity on what is needed for more joy and abundance. April 16th: Mercury Moves into Aries (Again) The narrative continues, but with forward progress this time. Shift in communication to self-centric intentions stated clearly (possibly bluntly). Universe urging clear communication in leadership roles for self-empowerment and modeling equitable behavior. April 18th: Mars Moves into Leo - Exciting! Boost in physical energy. Inspiration and a fire are reignited. The "fill up" that has been missing. Mars (action, drive) finally in a fire sign (Leo) wired for being out front and adored. Potential for significant progress if small actions have been taken during Sun in Aries. Burning off "slow sads" - a welcome energy shift. The Nutshell Story of This Cycle Key takeaway: Take action. Follow excitement and listen to "no." Decisions won't be clear-cut; balance facts with intuition. Venus recharged, Mercury cleansed, Neptune in a new phase, Mars finally moving comfortably. Listen to your body - it holds the energetic score. Everything is changing for the ultimate best. Embrace evolution and change. "Grab the wheel" and direct the new energies. The path won't be linear, but progress will be made. Stirrings that 2025 is a "mash up of all the best parts of our life thus far" - a wild, liberating, blessed, and manifesting "zine." Supportive Practices for This Cycle Meditate Hydrate Move your body Aim for self-advocacy Aim for equity Anchor in your spirituality Pisces Season Recap & Aries Season Intentions Pisces season offered massive somatic healing potential and deep release. Aries season (Sun in Aries) marks a new beginning: rebirth of leadership, hope, potential, and the fire to ignite something wonderful. Cycle directive: Continue to remain present and focus on your vessel. Aries as the Athlete & Warrior: Prioritizing Your Vessel Aries embodies the athlete and warrior. Cannot stand for, protect, or create effectively without an optimally functioning vessel. Learning from athletes: value of repair, recovery, nutrition, and hydration. This cycle is a collective call to prioritize vessel care. Not about perfectionism, but celebration and respect for the soul's home. Caring for the body is loving and supports desired creations and actions. It's Spring! Emerge from the Underworld Emergence from the darkness may feel overwhelming initially ("too bright and too big"). It's okay to go slow ("throw on some shades"). Cannot stay in the "cave" forever. Take the step out. Evaluation phase is over. Feel the wild unknown where anything is possible Aries Basics: Mantra, Place in Zodiac, Element Aries' mantra: "I am." First sign of the zodiac. Cardinal fire sign. "I Can Do This! Let's Start Something." Aries' inherent drive to initiate. Excellent at starting things - "OFF AND RUNNING." Carries strong manifestation energy due to its "young," "new," and often "naive" energy. Prone to beginner's luck. Aries as the Warrior Wired for battle and a valuable ally. Relentless and fresh energy with "sassy salty vibes." Thrives on feedback and pressure - needs resistance. The analogy of two rams butting heads (establishing dominance, training, communication, play). Balanced vs. Imbalanced Aries In Balance: Fights to protect loved ones and the vulnerable; evolves into a benevolent leader (connection to The Emperor tarot); passionate, driven, enthusiastic, and inspiring. In Imbalance: Egocentric, puts self first; argues to win everything (even trivial matters); immature; stirs things up for the sake of it; needs feedback/pressure (workouts as a constructive outlet). Movement for Aries: Burning Off the Heat Aries energy is hot, fast, and furious and needs movement to release heat. Caution against excessive cardio, which can overheat the system. Analogy to a Jack Russell Terrier: smart, energetic, needs engagement and novelty. Think "neuro festive brains" needing stimulation and interest for focused engagement. Requires both movement and cerebral activity. Hydration and Cooling Foods for Aries Season Hydration is crucial Recommendation: half your body weight in ounces of water daily with a teaspoon of pink salt for electrolyte absorption. Importance of cooling foods: green and mint (all forms). Aries Rules the Head, Eyes, and Adrenals: Wellness Practices Connection to headache/migraine issues. Mention of Unicorn Wellness Studio member practices: headstand preps/headstands (7th chakra connection, fresh perspective), crab series/rabbit pose (playful, grounding, cooling, circulation). In Aries Season, Stop and Ask: What am I thinking but not saying? What messaging is trying to get through? What am I subconsciously blocking or pretending not to know? Wellness Bullet Points for Aries Season: Begin or prioritize a movement pattern (unicornwellnessstudio.com). PRIORITIZE hydration. Meditate (5 min frequency reset or 8 min chakra balance). Set a bedtime (7-10 hours, address FOMO). Put time limits on gaming and social media (reduces energetic "heat"). Make time to play outside in fresh air. Share thoughts and feelings with trusted humans. Increase green intake (juice, meals, mint). Lighten scents (peppermint EO, lemon/wild orange incense Additional Resources: Activate 30 - days Guest Access on UnicornWellnessStudio.com Offering 30-min classical Pilates workouts in alignment to the astrological season and lunar cycles and Tandy's 41-day food reset at this link here in preparation of the astrological new year.

Did you fasten your seatbelt? Pack extra snacks? Prepare for the plot twist? Last week did you: Get on the mat 2 - 4xs Listen to two NEW episodes on The Magic Spark? GROUND GROUND GROUND? This week is seemingly quiet AND it's full of wild cards. Yup, another one of those. Basically it's 2025. The sun shifts into Aries, and has two cazimis. It's a week to be aware of our vitality, where we shine, or where we don't. This week: Get on the mat 2 - 4xs Listen to 3️three NEW episode on The Magic Spark Embrace simplicity Monday, March 17th: - Happy Mo(o)nday. Congratulations! We survived the first eclipse of the season. And like everyone's social media posts are saying...no, you're not crazy. It's Mercury Rx, Venus Rx, and we're in between eclipses. Things are shifting. They are changing. And they have not settled, sorted, or fully played out. That's a 6 month process. What we can do is keep things as simple as possible. ▪️Do NOT try to solve too far in advance. ▪️Stay present. ▪️Practice simplicity. ▪️Hydrate ▪️Move your body ▪️Meditate ▪️Eat Root veggies + add a handful of greens to every meal. ▪️Aim for toddler bedtimes. - Day 1 of Reset Flow - You'll need a set of yoga blocks for this workout. Cork blocks are preferred, they offer more stability than a typical foam block. No blocks? You can still do this workout or skip ahead to the next video without a prop. In this workout you'll see a signature shoulder health series to prevent pain and injury, increase mobility, and make your entire upper body more receptive to building strength. We've got modified 100's, our classical series of 5...hello deep core...bridge, rocking, side leg series, swan and double leg kicks for low back strength, rabbit, down dog and a side plank, or star. Tuesday, March 18th: - Eclipse season + Mercury Rx plot twist. I'll be on Instagram through April....in May you'll find me on Substack and Bluesky + our private community group. Wednesday, March 19th: -EP 119 on The Magic Spark. Is our Aries season Forecast! This is our seasonal astro forecast + deep dive into energies. It's also our Spring Equinox and the Astrological New Year. - Sun conjunct Neptune. It's another cazimi! We had two cazimi's last week and we've got two more this week. There's a tiny parade through the Sun's car wash. This aspect is interesting. Neptune takes 14 years to move through a single sign of the zodiac. It's been in Pisces since 2011 and the last time it had a conjunction with the sun was 2021. This conjunction today is happening at the 29th degree of Pisces. Known as the anaretic degree - the last degree of a sign, the degree of fate, of karma, of release. Thursday, March 20th: EP 120 on The Magic Spark. Is our Aries Season Tarot Forecast! Tune into the spirit in which to move through this cycle. - Sun enters Aries. Spring Equinox. HAPPY ASTROLOGICAL NEW YEAR! - Day 1 of Upside down Flow -No props needed for this workout. In this workout you'll see deep hip health for access to core strength. Dead bug makes an appearance (it's so good for you), wheel, side kick series, boat, baby bird, a sneaky glute strength series, headstand prep + rotations and circles for detox and energetic/magic circulation. Friday, March 21st: - Aphrodite's Day It's time to ask: What does my inner goddess need in order to remember she is sacred, divine, and designed to receive? Keep it simple. Whisper a tiny prayer for more balance, stability, pleasure, joy, and peace in your day. Sip rose tea. Slather yourself in a comforting scent or lotion. Use your Aphrodite tapping or shaking in the Healing Frequencies portion of the UWS library. Whatever calls, just make sure to nod to Aphrodite today. Say thank you for her magic, her narrative, her guidance, protection, and badassery in the world. Saturday, March 22nd: - Breathe. Drink water. Get on the mat and do the 5-Minute Frequency Reset. Sunday, March 23rd: - Day 1 of Rainbow Flow - You'll need a set of blocks for this workout. Cork blocks preferred. You'll see sufi rolls for physical and metaphysical circulation amplification, a juicy bridge series for glute, hamstring, and low back strength, sidekick series for hip strength, boomerang, table tops into reverse plank, shoulder series, fish, and a big ole rainbow pike. This is a strong workout, but as always; listen to the cues, do what you can and leave the rest. Every video is a mixed level workout. If you stay open and just try to make the body connections from the cues I offer, you will absolutely surprise yourself as to what you are capable of. - Sun conjunct Venus. Our second cazimi this week! It's another special moment because it's happening in the Venus retrograde and the last time Venus was conjunct the sun was 2012. So it's been a minute since our lady Aphrodite got a power wash, reset, revitalization glow up from the sun. Yes, when two celestial bodies share the same spot in the cosmo's, it's a wild card. Could be a big ole blessing, could be a sizable challenge. And...I do prescribe to the narrative that a cazimi (conjunction with the sun) is always a restart, refresh, reboot...and personally I always think this is great. It's like turning the energy (Venus) off and on again. It somehow just always works better after. -

But let's be honest—mention EVM in a meeting, and half the room runs for the hills. The challenge? Taking an organization unfamiliar with EVM and implementing it in a way that actually adds value instead of turning into a compliance-driven headache.In this episode of Beyond Deadlines, I sat down with Chris Mikec, Project Controls Manager, and Frank Casertano, Scheduling Manager, both from Lighthouse Electric. They shared their experience working with a general contractor (GC) to roll out EVM across an entire program.

Neptune enters Aries on March 30, a significant astrological event of the ages, as we are now owning our Creator Self along with our spiritual development to embody a new intuitive, advancing human.

In this episode we dive deep into Pisces season, running from February 19th to March 19th, 2025. This season is a powerful time for compassion, creativity, spirituality, and intuition. We'll explore the astrological influences, key transits, and practical tips to navigate this watery, emotional time. Key Themes: Transition and Completion: Pisces season marks the end of winter (in the Northern Hemisphere) and a liminal space before the Spring Equinox. It's a time for reflection, releasing what no longer serves us, and finalizing plans for the new astrological year. Emotional Depth and Healing: Pisces' watery energy amplifies our emotions, offering profound opportunities for somatic healing and releasing deep-seated wounds. Navigating Feelings vs. Facts: This season can blur the lines between emotions and reality. We'll discuss strategies for discerning between the two and processing feelings in a healthy way. Spiritual Connection: Pisces season encourages a deeper connection to something bigger than ourselves, emphasizing soul and spirit over material possessions. The Importance of the Vessel: Taking care of our physical and energetic bodies is crucial during this time of heightened sensitivity and psychic messaging. Astrological Highlights: Nodes of Fate in Pisces/Virgo: This long-term transit emphasizes the balance between emotions and practicality, pushing us towards spirituality and self-care. (Refer to Episode 96 for more on the Nodes of Fate) Mars Stations Direct in Cancer (Feb 23): While Mars moving forward is positive, its placement in Cancer can create challenges with emotional processing. It can also bring empathetic warrior energy. Venus Retrograde in Aries (Mar 1): This retrograde encourages reevaluation of wants, desires, pleasure, and finances. It also highlights the dark feminine and setting boundaries. Mercury Enters Retroshade/Stations Retrograde in Aries (Mar 1/Mar 15): This retrograde focuses on inner child issues, anger, and communication. Double-check everything and avoid major decisions without support. Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse in Virgo (Mar 14): A powerful time for releasing old emotional patterns and addressing perfectionism. (More details available for Unicorn Wellness Studio community) Overall Energy of the Cycle: This Pisces season emphasizes emotional regulation, nervous system support, and somatic healing. It's a time for deep release, acknowledging our feelings (without letting them consume us), and cultivating self-compassion. We may witness traumatic events in the collective which can trigger our own past traumas. Remember, in the moment, we are safe, we are the grownups, and we can choose our bandwidth of participation. Channeled Information: Pay close attention to your body's signals. It will be communicating messages about both physical and spiritual needs. Prioritize self-care, including sleep, hydration, and a supportive diet. Mindful movement and meditation are essential for grounding and navigating the heightened energies. Pisces Deep Dive: Mantra: I believe Significance: 12th and final sign of the zodiac, mutable water sign. Qualities: Mystical, healing, spiritual, compassionate, creative, escapist, sensitive, intuitive. Balance: Offers soft power, clarity, and the ability to process emotions effectively. Imbalance: Can lead to emotional overwhelm, victim mentality, and difficulty setting boundaries. Key Lesson: Discerning reality from fantasy. Practical Tips for Pisces Season: Prioritize sleep and rest. Hydrate consistently. Incorporate ginger into your diet. Schedule alone time. Engage in creative activities. Practice somatic movement (yoga, etc.). Support lymphatic flushing (foam rolling, cardio, etc.). Perform a belief inventory. Additional Resources: Group Magical Mentoring begins March 7th 2025 and exploration calls begin February 18th! This is mentoring via the tarot to heal core wounds.

Last week was subtle in the skies but had a lot to offer in the 3D, with one big full moon. Healing was at hand. Did you feel it? How did it express in your life? This week adds more water to the ocean of emotion we're already swimming in. Say Hey to Pisces season, then cheer for Mars stationing direct! Above all...just keep swimming. Monday, February 17th: - Happy Mo(o)nday! Full disclosure, our full moon last week did not play out in my own world at all the way I anticipated. Rather than showing up live for the community and traveling, and living my best Leo life, I had no voice and hunkered down in bed for multiple days in a row. That's not to say it wasn't sweet, but it was definitely more Hermit vibes rather than the Leo fire, this Leo rising looks forward to. I'm dying to know how yours played out. Amplified emotions? Time to shine? Opportunities to heal? Where did your true internal heart centric path take you....mine took me to rest. I get it. This week has two major transits...one's great, while the other kinda complicates things. So stay focused. Stay mellow. Keep your roster and calendar as light as possible with lots of flexibility and time to rest & replenish. Make the time to tie up your map and vision of 2025. Sit and think about what would make you really proud, if you accomplished it by 2026. Get into your feelings...not your analytical thoughts. And for goddess sake, don't try to save the world, alone. Focus on making your personal world better (self, home, family), and then close community…if you've got remaining bandwidth. I'm not saying to check out…I'm saying to check IN with what's reasonable and possible. Continue doing whatever you need to do to find stability in your day. Lock in on your practices, they provide: ▪️Mat ▪️Meditation or Energetic Healing ▪️Connect with community & friends. ▪️Hydrate ▪️Prioritize rest

Mercury enters Pisces on February 14, followed by the Sun entering Pisces on February 18, which now highlights 4 planets and the North Node in the final sign of the zodiac. Completions, endings, and karmic closures are clearly emphasized.

Sheri Horn Hasan's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast--which drops Friday, February 7—is BAAAAACK! Listen here: https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingThis week's Astro News You Can Use includes a look at how--as we approach the Feb 12 Leo Full Moon--the world has been watching as those in the U.S. begin to wake up to a new reality within its governing structure and to fight back. There is no doubt, since the January 29 Aquarius New Moon & the direct stations of Uranus & Jupiter, that the news has been flying so fast and furiously that it's been difficult to keep up most days unless you're a diehard news addict. No wonder sudden shock (Uranus=sudden change) related to codified U.S. law (Jupiter=law, immigration, higher education, religion, philosophy, ethics & morals) has shaken many American's faith in their governing systems.Venus represents who we value as partners, finances, and what we do to earn our money, a.k.a., work, or our “jobs.” And now, since Venus in Aries sextiled Pluto on February 7, these most unconventional—and many say illegal—orders out of President Trump's White House have prompted legal push back. And the fight (Aries) over governmental finances, jobs, & between existig allies & trading partners (Venus) continues.The opportunity to fight back against Plutonic efforts to disempower people by imposing tariffs against allied trading partners, withholding funds from Americans, laying off government workers, discontinuing funding for charitable efforts, etc., has began to bear fruit, considering that a double-digit number of lawsuits have been filed to date. And word has it there will be more anon…after all, the Jupiter mission, now direct, is expansion, lol... We wait to see if there are any new major shocking announcements of the legal sort between now & February 9's Aquarius Sun/Mercury conjunction,  Mars/Saturn trine, February 10's Mercury/Uranus square, & February 11's Sun/Uranus square, as we head into the February 12's Leo Full Moon.We do know that Trump's been experiencing a square from transiting Saturn in Pisces from his 7th House of partnership to his natal 10th House Gemini Uranus (which conjoins his Gemini North Node & Sun there), likely spurring his need to shock through unconventional pronouncements. Since several judges have stayed his Executive Orders on issues concerning U.S. birthright, stoppage of funding via USAID, lay-offs of federal workers, granting non elected individuals access to the Treasury Department's payment system, and more, to date, we may well have Saturn to thank. Especially since transiting Saturn will go on to exact square his natal Nodes, Sagittarius Moon, & Gemini Sun--all by April 12, we may see more delays or shut downs of these efforts. We shall see...This Leo Full Moon forms a fixed cross as the Leo Moon opposes the Aquarius Sun & both luminaries square Juno in Scorpio (the partner in the sign of joint resources) opposite Uranus (sudden change.) This period will likely shock even more people out of their complacency over Trump's attempts to take a wrecking ball to America's usual civil & legal structures. Some are calling this a coup from the inside, which puts a new slant on Trump's “deep state” propaganda to mean that HE is the “deep state.” *(Well, it wouldn't be the first time that he is what he projects others to be, right?)Meanwhile, we delve into the meaning of the recent shift of the transiting nodal axis into a Virgo South Node & Pisces North Node, & take a look at the health implications (not only for the U.S. but for the world) since the Hygeia's (asteroid goddess of health) conjoined with the dwarf planet Eris, the goddess of chaos & discord on January 9. This as we await whether the February 11 Senate voters confirm that RFK, Jr., will become our next U.S. Secretary of Health & Human Services.This, as wounded healer Chiron in Aries (wound around the previous inability to take action or to be proactive) heads toward its exact conjunction with Eris on May 26. A lot will likely happen between now and then, given other major astrological shifts coming up, so we'll wait, and watch, and see…Join me now for this interesting and timely podcast @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking and I'll see you then!

On this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with Brendon Wong, the founder of Unize.org. We explore Brendon's work in knowledge management, touching on his recent talk at Nodes 2024 about using AI to generate knowledge graphs and trends in the field. Our conversation covers the evolution of personal and organizational knowledge management, the future of object-oriented systems, the integration of AI with knowledge graphs, and the challenges of autonomous agents. For more on Brendon's work, check out unize.org and his articles at web10.ai.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:35 Exploring Unise: A Knowledge Management App01:01 The Evolution of Knowledge Management02:32 Personal Knowledge Management Trends03:10 Object-Oriented Knowledge Management05:27 The Future of Knowledge Graphs and AI10:37 Challenges in Simulating the Human Mind22:04 Knowledge Management in Organizations26:57 The Role of Autonomous Agents30:00 Personal Experiences with Sleep Aids30:07 Unique Human Perceptions32:08 Knowledge Management Journey33:31 Personal Knowledge Management Systems34:36 Challenges in Knowledge Management35:26 Future of Knowledge Management with AI36:29 Melatonin and Sleep Patterns37:30 AI and the Future of the Internet43:39 Reasoning and AI Limitations48:33 The Future of AI and Human Reasoning52:43 Conclusion and Contact InformationKey InsightsThe Evolution of Knowledge Management: Brendon Wong highlights how knowledge management has evolved from personal note-taking systems to sophisticated, object-oriented models. He emphasizes the shift from traditional page-based structures, like those in Roam Research and Notion, to systems that treat information as interconnected objects with defined types and properties, enhancing both personal and organizational knowledge workflows.The Future Lies in Object-Oriented Knowledge Systems: Brendon introduces the concept of object-oriented knowledge management, where data is organized as distinct objects (e.g., books, restaurants, ideas) with specific attributes and relationships. This approach enables more dynamic organization, easier data retrieval, and better contextual understanding, setting the stage for future advancements in knowledge-based applications.AI and Knowledge Graphs Are a Powerful Combination: Brendon discusses the synergy between AI and knowledge graphs, explaining how AI can generate, maintain, and interact with complex knowledge structures. This integration enhances memory, reasoning, and information retrieval capabilities, allowing AI systems to support more nuanced and context-aware decision-making processes.The Limitations of Current AI Models: While AI models like LLMs have impressive capabilities, Brendon points out their limitations, particularly in reasoning and long-term memory. He notes that current models excel at pattern recognition but struggle with higher-level reasoning tasks, often producing hallucinations when faced with unfamiliar or niche topics.Challenges in Organizational Knowledge Management: Brendon and Stewart discuss the persistent challenges of implementing knowledge management in organizations. Despite its critical role, knowledge management is often underappreciated and the first to be cut during budget reductions. The conversation highlights the need for systems that are both intuitive and capable of reducing the manual burden on users.The Potential and Pitfalls of Autonomous Agents: The episode explores the growing interest in autonomous and semi-autonomous agents powered by AI. While these agents can perform tasks with minimal human intervention, Brendon notes that the technology is still in its infancy, with limited real-world applications and significant room for improvement, particularly in reliability and task generalization.Reimagining the Future of the Internet with Web 10: Brendon shares his vision for Web 10, an ambitious rethinking of the internet where knowledge is better structured, verified, and interconnected. This future internet would address current issues like misinformation and data fragmentation, creating a more reliable and meaningful digital ecosystem powered by AI-driven knowledge graphs.

The Nodes of Fate move through Pisces and Virgo from January 12, 2025 until July 27, 2026, with a strong emphasis on the North Node in Pisces experience. With Neptune, Saturn, Venus, and Mercury all interacting in Pisces, we are ascending into higher frequencies that also clear out Age of Pisces imprints that were very strong in 1523 to 1524. The last time Saturn, Neptune, and the North Node were in Pisces together (plus Jupiter!), the spread of Christianity was unfolding through Martin Luther (NN in Pisces) and there was an uprising through a Peasants War (SN in Virgo) in Germany. Similar themes are being illuminated in modern times, and we are closing out lower Pisces energies of propaganda, disillusionment, deception, blind faith, and being under a spell of idealism. Much more to share in this podcast episode. The Nodes of Fate move through Pisces and Virgo from January 2025 to July 2026, bringing energy and focus to where you are ready to embrace more intuition, compassion, soul gifts, and healing.
