Join Talk Cosmos as we explore the 20° Leo Solar Eclipse occurring a few weeks ahead on August 12. To give each of these powerful celestial markers sufficient attention, we will cover the August 12 Solar Eclipse in this episode and dive into the August 27 Pisces Lunar Eclipse later in the month.Nodal Dynamics & Critical DegreesThe Lunar Nodes move in reverse (clockwise around the zodiac) and have just entered the Aquarius North Node and Leo South Node. This New Moon in Leo comes into orb of a conjunction with the Leo South Node, marking the second solar eclipse of the year and the first under this new nodal axis.Furthermore, the nodes will hold at the critical 29th degree for over two months (from July 26 through October 9). This intense degree echoes the remaining residue of the previous Pisces-Virgo nodal cycle, which permeates through this pair of upcoming eclipses—the Solar Eclipse in Leo and the Lunar Eclipse tipping into Pisces.Navigating the EnergiesWe may feel a bit cautious yet deeply driven to realize our dreams and visions. Meanwhile, our inner life spark thrives on activating and nourishing personal relationships. What we value—and seek to align emotionally with our past—seems to evolve through immediate experience. Ultimately, we are deeply transmuting the foundational strategies and wisdom behind our core desires.Taking time to listen to our heart's internal direction recalibrates how we support our life path. Leo represents heart-centered leadership. By refining subtle, negatively intentional motives—such as unexamined anger or vengeance—we clear the path for fulfilling, authentic Leo leadership. Life invites us to use our creative gifts for the collective good, showing us where to release the ego's subtle demands for entitlement or arrogance so we can step fully into updated leadership roles within our communities. The Essence of the LuminaryAs our most personal luminary, the Moon regulates how the past flows into the present. It allows us to experience emotions, habits, and instinctual feelings, offering energetic input that helps piece together new meaning. In doing so, it supports our ongoing life story as we grow, heal, and evolve in mind, body, heart, and spirit.The ConversationJoining Sue Rose Minahan from Kailua-Kona, Big Island, Hawai'i, will be Talk Cosmos member Amanda Pierce of Seattle, Washington.Connect with inspiration!

On this episode of ID The Future from our archive, host Andrew McDiarmid welcomes astrophysicist Guillermo Gonzalez back to the program to read and discuss his poem "Totality: A Celestial Theater," written to commemorate the total solar eclipse that occurred in April 2024. You may already be familiar with Gonzalez's popular book The Privileged Planet, co-authored with Dr. Jay Richards, unpacking the arguments for our privileged place in the cosmos. You might also have heard about his new young adult novel The Farm at the Center of the Universe, co-written with Dr. Jonathan Witt. But you likely didn't know this accomplished scientist and author is also a poet! Listen as Gonzalez discusses and then reads his poem aloud. Source

August has arrived—and according to intuitive astrologer Stevie Calista, this isn't just another month. It's one of the most pivotal energetic periods of the year.After July's Mercury retrograde invited us to slow down, reflect, and reset, August accelerates the journey with two powerful eclipses, major planetary shifts, and an invitation to shed old identities in favor of something far more authentic.If you've been feeling like life has been nudging or pushing you toward change, you're not imagining it.In this episode, Stevie walks us through the astrological themes week by week, explaining what each major transit means, where to focus your energy, and how to navigate the month with greater clarity, trust, and intention.IN THIS EPISODE WE COVER:Why August 2026 eclipse season marks a major turning point filled with endings, beginnings, and soul-level course correctionsHow Saturn in Aries continues challenging us to release old identities and discover who we truly areThe meaning of Lammas (Lughnasadh) and why early August is the perfect time to celebrate gratitude, abundance, and the harvest in your own lifeHow Chiron retrograde invites deep healing while helping you recognize just how far you've already comeWhy Venus entering Libra encourages more balance, beauty, connection, and harmony in your relationships and daily lifeWhat it means as Mercury finally leaves its retrograde shadow and begins moving into new territoryHow Mercury in Leo inspires creativity, confidence, self-expression, and reconnecting with your inner childWhy Mars entering Cancer asks us to slow down, nurture ourselves, tend to home and family, and reconnect with our emotional rootsThe significance of the August 12 Solar Eclipse in Leo and how it may close important chapters while opening your heart to a new version of yourselfWhy this eclipse is less about forcing outcomes—and more about trusting where your soul is already leading youThe caution around Mars square Neptune, and why it's important to avoid making emotionally reactive decisions during the third week of the monthWhat Virgo season brings as we transition into healthier routines, organization, productivity, and grounded momentumHow the Mercury cycle reaches an important midpoint, offering an opportunity to reflect, refine, and adjust projects or ideas that began in JulyThe meaning of the August 28 Pisces Lunar Eclipse, and why surrender, intuition, and trusting the unknown become your greatest strengthsWhy 2026 continues to feel like a year of brand-new territory—and how to embrace the uncertainty instead of resisting itThroughout the conversation, Stevie reminds us that astrology is a powerful tool for understanding the larger cycles unfolding in our lives, helping us work with the energy instead of against it.If August feels intense, know that you're not alone. This month's astrology is inviting all of us to release what no longer fits, reconnect with our hearts, and step into a more authentic version of ourselves—one choice at a time.MORE WITH STEVIE CALISTAVisit steviecalista.com to learn more about Stevie's astrology readings, classes, and current offerings.Follow Stevie on Instagram: @farmhousemoonSubscribe to Stevie on Substack: @farmhousemoonSOLAR ECLIPSE VISIBILITYPath of Totality: Greenland, Iceland, Spain and Portugal, Russia:Partial Eclipse Regions:North America: Parts of Alaska and northeastern Canada/U.S. see a minor partial eclipse. i.e., New York will have about 9% coverage and Detroit roughly 3%.Europe + Africa: Much of Europe and northwestern Africa experience a deep partial eclipse near sunset Visit seekingcentercommunity.com for more with Robyn + Karen and many of the guides on Seeking Center: The Podcast.

Full Moon in Aquarius: A Unique ViewWhat I really like about Astrology are the clues this unique guidance system provides for daily life pointers, insight, and direction.  Aquarius is said to be the sign of Astrology.  The recent  Full Moon in Aquarius occurred on July 29th at 6 degrees, though the effects will continue to be felt as the Moon energy connects with the Solar Eclipse in Leo around August 12. This is a sensational opportunity to “meet and greet others, and start the process of remembering who you are”. This is a great time to promote social groups and friendly encounters.  During this Moon, people are eager to talk and exchange mutually beneficial thoughts and ideas.Saying Yes to Yourself:  Remembering Who You areAre you ready and willing to trust that your vision, in some important area of your life, is calling you forward, and wants to be expressed through you?  Aquarius is the sign of "Cosmic Consciousness".  This means through the faculty of intuition each person has the ability to see and understand the future.  The way this deep awareness occurs, is that you have to be willing to say "yes" to the most authentic version of yourself.  Remembering who you are from the inside out.Saying yes to yourself means turning from all of the "naysayers" about who and what you are suppose to be or do. This is definitely a tall order, because we have been socialize to belief others outside of ourselves know more or better than we do about who we are.  As indicated previously, trusting that you are enough, and acknowledging that how you see things may very well be different, but is no less viable than someone else's view of life.Every chart has its  Uranus“Genius Zone” the planet guiding Aquarius. Find the Aquarius area(s) in your chart and draw a circle around the house cusps.What house(s) offers you space for your new vision and purpose through connecting with Aquarius?How do you feel the vital energy that's moving you toward your unique direction, and helping to break free from the mind “chains” .What gift, ability and/or talent are asking to be brought forth?In the sign of the “water-carrier” there's excitement in the air.  As an air sign, Aquarius represents collective group awareness, in particular trends, mass movement and major societal changes. One major topic that heads the list of Aquarian concerns are questions of humanitarianism, a massive global dilemma affecting every country in the world. Check out the kinds of subjects that  are trending on social media.  Aquarius is ruled by the planet of “sudden and often disrupting happenings”, Uranus is  also known as the sign of technology, specifically the Internet.  Uranus co-ruler/guide with Saturn is currently in Gemini. This is a powerful placement because Gemini is aligned with communication, and Aquarius is connected with technology and revolutionary change.  As you look around, the current "buzz" is fixated on AI, and yet the most powerful expression of technology is possessed by every being on the planet.  The difficulty is that people have forgotten that we are the power... so the real technological revolution is when people start remembering who we are.In many ways, Aquarius is the messenger that  is asking everyone, as part of the collective whole, to consider what she or he is willing to contribute toward a new and more just world vision, which includes all people?  This is part of the remembering process that humanity is undergoing.  Aquarius is an upfront sign. Its signature is about doing things differently from what has been done in the past. Much of the social, economic, and overall planetary upheaval has to do with the collective group acknowledging what is not viable, and how the “old order” has disavowed the differences and diversity of the branches on the“human tree”.   Yes, the human tree.  The designation of people by skin color groups, gender status, religious affiliations, socioeconomic worth, lineage, ancestors,nationality, etc, are used to keep from seeing our shared humanity.  Seeing these categorizations for what they are, is part of the "remembering process"Where in your life are you experiencing the need to make major changes? At the same time, how and what can you contribute to the group effort to shift the world's energy toward more light, and real positive direction?  What do you need personally, to feel comfortable,supported and nurtured in stepping out to share your unique visions and ideas?Aquarius as a  fixed sign brings focus and often a single-minded direction  to your life. This moon time offers a time of clarity, new ideas and inspiration.From planetary and natural world perspective, this is the “in between, liminal” space.  Aquarius is the sign of the "Seer".This is a time that feels like a need to hide away, yet it can be truly empowering if you accept your “Aquarian Calling” and claim your special place in life.  In essence, we each have to be willing to embrace self-love through “being totally enough” This Full Moon is shining on you, and your unique view. Is there something that you've been toying with for awhile?  It's time to go for it !  Perhaps people around you may look at you with raised eyebrows, but there are others who are ready for the changes that you are offering, and are in full support of your vision(s)!   Even though there are many topics and subjects that are weighty, and perplexing, connecting with others in a fun and enjoyable way makes everything easier.  The summer Sun is sitting in Leo with support from Jupiter also in Leo, which in astrological terms is in the opposing position to Aquarius.  Even though these signs are sitting opposite one another, I actually see them working together as complements. Leo calls for being in the spotlight of your own radiant self-knowing.  One way to use this astrological partnering is for social connection and to have fun, where people can communicate and enjoy each other's company. When we play together, we create more “heart space”. With more “heart vision”,  we can hear one another better, and see our way with more understanding, clarity, and wisdom.  Embrace Your Freedom that's Waiting for You. Let's have an Astrology Conversation.  I look forward to seeing you.  Now is the time.https://www.soulsoundinsights.com/light-reading.htmlhttps://www.soulsoundinsights.com/music-musings-meditation.htmlI am proud to announce my new offering as a Certified Creative Depth Coach.  As a Creative Depth Coach, I provide guidance, support and soul insights on how to discover, explore and navigate your life by  recognizing your magnificent "Creative Genius".

August arrives as an eclipse month—and the story is beginning to change.On August 12, a Solar Eclipse in Leo invites us to reconsider how we have sought recognition, expressed our creativity, and offered ourselves to the world. Then, on August 28, a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces brings us into deeper waters, illuminating what is ready to be released, surrendered, or returned to the greater whole.Between these two eclipses, August becomes a threshold: a passage between the story we have been living and the one that is quietly emerging.The month begins with a new Human Design week as the Sun enters Gate 33—Retelling—and the Earth enters Gate 19—Attunement. Gate 33 asks us to step back and gather the wisdom of what we have already experienced. Gate 19 grounds us through sensitivity, presence, and our ability to listen for what is truly needed.Perhaps we aren't meant to rush into August demanding to know what will happen. Perhaps we are being asked to pause, listen, and recognize how the story is already changing.Join me for an overview of the astrology, Human Design, and Gene Key themes guiding us through August 2026—and the deeper conversation the cosmos is inviting us to enter.Welcome to Living Astrology with Janet—where Myth & Soul meet Astrology, Human Design, and the Gene Keys.

A deep dive into the astrology forecast for August 2026, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Austin Coppock. We spend the first hour talking about the astrology behind events that happened in the news in July, and then in the second hour we do a deep dive into the astrology of August. August is mainly centered on an eclipse season, which begins the first week of the month with a solar eclipse in Leo, and is followed later in the month by lunar eclipse in Pisces. Early in the month Venus enters Libra, which is the sign that it will later retrograde back to in October, and it begins its shadow degree phase by the end of August. A Mars-Saturn square begins building mid-month, and eventually culminates on the final day of August at the same time that a Jupiter-Saturn trine goes exact.

This week's powerful Full Moon in Aquarius brings up important questions about who we are, where we belong, and where we may be ready for something to change. With a Jupiter cazimi and Pluto conjunct the Moon, something may be coming into clearer focus right now. In this episode, we'll unpack what makes this Full Moon so unusual, what it may be revealing for us (collectively and individually) and how we can work with its energy as we consider what comes next.Note: This discussion is easier to follow with a visual cue.

Welcome to Messages from the Universe. I'm Laurie Wondra, and August brings one of the most powerful energetic periods of 2026—a month of activation, opportunity, and conscious transformation. Numerologically, August carries the energy of the 8, inviting us into greater personal empowerment, balance, abundance, and authentic leadership. Combined with the collective 1 Universal Year, this is a time to step confidently into new beginnings while creating a strong foundation for the future.This month features several significant celestial events. The Lion's Gate Portal, peaking on August 8, encourages expanded awareness, heart-centered living, and a deeper connection with your soul's purpose. The Solar Eclipse on August 12 opens the door to fresh beginnings and courageous choices, while the Lunar Eclipse on August 28 helps us release what no longer serves our highest good. Alongside these eclipses, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune continue shaping the balance between inspiration, personal growth, and practical action.In this episode, we'll explore these energies, discuss how to work with them in your daily life, and finish with guidance for each zodiac sign. Wherever you are on your journey, August invites you to trust your intuition, embrace meaningful change, and remember that your greatest transformation begins with the choices you make today.Send us Fan MailSupport the showThanks for listening -  For questions or comments email Laurie at Laurie@yourlifecore.comInstagram @yourlifecore  or Twitter @yourlifecore Facebook https://www.facebook.com/YourLifecoreWebsite www.yourlifecore.com

Part 1: Prof David Block talks to us about looking up and everything we should know about the upcoming Solar Eclipse.

Leo season has arrived, and after an emotional and reflective Cancer season, the energy is finally beginning to shift. In this episode, we'll explore a season filled with “extra” Leo energy, which includes Jupiter in Leo, a powerful Aquarius Full Moon, the lunar nodes shifting to the Leo–Aquarius axis, and a total Solar Eclipse in Leo. We'll also talk about the ways this energy is shifting us from inner reflection toward outward expression, encouraging us to be seen and take up more space, and offering us a little more courage to live authentically.Want the Leo Season post with rising sign info?

"This garden holds a special secret," Mizuki smiled.Ja: しかし、春人は少し不信感を抱いています。「本当にそんなことがあるのか？」と春人は尋ねました。En: However, Haruto was somewhat skeptical. "Is there really such a thing?" Haruto asked.Ja: 由紀は瑞希の言葉を信じてみることにしました。瑞希に従って庭園の奥深くへと進んでいきます。En: Yuki decided to believe Mizuki's words and followed her deeper into the garden.Ja: 途中、鯉が泳ぐ池や美しいお茶屋を通り過ぎます。En: Along the way, they passed by a pond where koi swam and a beautiful tea house.Ja: 瑞希の話にはどこか引き込まれるものがありました。En: There was something captivating about Mizuki's story.Ja: ついに日食の時が来ました。En: Finally, the time for the eclipse arrived.Ja: 空がだんだん暗くなり、周囲が静かになっていきます。En: The sky gradually darkened, and the surroundings became silent.Ja: 太陽が月に隠れるその瞬間、庭園はまるで魔法にかかったかのように、光のベールがかかりました。En: At the moment when the sun was hidden by the moon, the garden was enveloped in a veil of light as if enchanted.Ja: 瑞希が話していたことが本当だったのかもしれません。En: Perhaps what Mizuki had spoken about was true.Ja: 春人もその光景を見て、少し驚いているようです。「これは本当に…信じられない」と彼はつぶやきました。En: Haruto, witnessing the scene, seemed a bit surprised. "This truly is... unbelievable," he murmured.Ja: 日食が終わると、庭園は再び元の景色に戻りましたが、由紀たちの心には確かに変化がありました。En: When the eclipse ended, the garden returned to its original scenery, but surely there was a change in Yuki and Haruto's hearts.Ja: 由紀は新たな目で世界を見ていました。En: Yuki viewed the world with fresh eyes.Ja: そして春人も、少しは魔法の可能性を感じたようです。En: And it seemed Haruto also felt a slight possibility of magic.Ja: 瑞希は、二人を優しく見守りながら、微笑みました。En: Mizuki gently watched over the two, smiling.Ja: 彼らは庭園を後にし、夜空に輝く星々を見上げました。En: They left the garden and gazed up at the stars shining in the night sky.Ja: 七夕の夜、彼らは新たな自分たちを見つけたのでした。En: On the night of Tanabata, they found a new version of themselves.Ja: これからもっと魔法を探しながら歩んでいくことを誓います。En: They vowed to continue walking, seeking more magic.Ja: 瑞希の存在も、きっとどこかで彼らを導いてくれるでしょう。En: The presence of Mizuki would surely guide them from somewhere.

Green Bank, West Virginia is home to the world's largest fully steerable radio telescope. It's also the only town in the U.S. where cell phones and Wi-Fi are banned, so the telescope can listen for faint signals from across the Universe undisturbed. This week, we bring you a special conversation recorded after The Planetary Society's virtual screening of Small Town Universe, the documentary that follows the people whose lives are shaped by that place. Mat Kaplan, Planetary Society senior communications advisor, talks with filmmaker Katie Dellamaggiore and physicist Ellie White about making the film, the beauty and stakes of life at Green Bank, and the ongoing fight to keep the observatory funded. Before that, Kate Howells, public communications specialist, previews the total solar eclipse crossing parts of the Northern Hemisphere on August 12th, the first visible from Western Europe since 1999. And Bruce Betts, chief scientist, joins for What's Up, breaking down Hayabusa2's July 5th flyby of asteroid Torifune.

The Artemis II crew has returned home safely after a historic 10-day journey around the Moon, the first crewed lunar mission in over 50 years. In this episode, we celebrate some of the mission's most extraordinary moments: the record-breaking Flight Day 6 when Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history, a breathtaking solar eclipse observed from lunar orbit, meteorite impact flashes spotted on the lunar surface, and a deeply personal crater dedication that moved the world. But the triumph comes with turbulence. Just days after launch, the White House released a Presidential Budget Request proposing a 47% cut to NASA's science budget — threatening 84 missions and nearly half of NASA's science portfolio. Jack Kiraly, director of government relations at The Planetary Society, and Ari Koeppel, AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellow, join host Sarah Al-Ahmed to break down what's at stake and what's being done about it. Plus, Chief Scientist Bruce Betts joins for this week's What's Up.

The 2026 total solar eclipse is already drawing attention from travelers around the world, and for good reason. The last time a total solar eclipse was visible in Iceland was in 1954, and the next one won't happen again until 2196.  This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PN4ZKGJ7QYI What Makes a Total Solar Eclipse So Special A total solar eclipse is when the Moon completely covers the Sun. Not partially, not mostly, completely! And when that happens, everything changes. The sky gets dark, like twilight in the middle of the day Temperatures drop And you can see the Sun's corona, which looks like a glowing white halo But honestly? The technical explanation doesn't fully capture it. People who have seen total solar eclipses travel across the world to experience them again. Free Iceland 2026 Total Solar Eclipse Guide In this free guide you’ll know where to go for the best chance of seeing totality, how to plan around Iceland's unpredictable weather, and how to turn this into an unforgettable Iceland adventure. Click Here Why Iceland is So Unique for The 2026 Total Solar Eclipse? The 2026 eclipse path crosses a limited number of places, and Iceland is one of the most accessible and visually stunning locations in that path. Imagine this for a second: You're standing near a black sand beach or next to a massive waterfall or in the middle of a volcanic landscape…then the sky goes dark. That's what makes Iceland different. You're not just watching the eclipse, you're experiencing it in one of the most dramatic natural environments in the world. On top of that: Iceland has wide open landscapes with unobstructed views You're never too far from a coastline And depending on where you go, you can avoid huge crowds But to be completely transparent, Iceland also comes with its challenges. Why Planning Early Matters (A LOT) for the 2026 Total Solar Eclipse in Iceland Planning early for this eclipse is not optional—it's essential. Here's why: 1. Limited Accommodations Iceland already has limited places to stay. Small towns, fewer hotels, and high demand even in a normal year make in challenging during summer. Now add a once-in-a-lifetime event? Things will book out fast! 2. Unpredictable Weather Icelandic weather changes quickly. Like, very quickly. You could have: Clear skies in one area And full cloud cover just an hour away Which means if you stay in one place and hope for the best, you might miss it. 3. Distances Are Deceptive Iceland looks small on the map, but driving between places often takes longer than people expect. So knowing: Where to base yourself Where to go on eclipse day And how to stay flexible …can completely change your experience. Free Help Planning Your Total Solar Eclipse Trip for Iceland? Honestly, this is exactly why I created a free guide for this. I've seen how quickly things can get overwhelming when planning a trip here, especially for something as big as a total solar eclipse. So I put together a free 42-page guide to help you feel confident going into this. By the time you finish it, you'll know: Where to go for the best chance of seeing totality in Iceland How to plan around Iceland's unpredictable weather What to book and when And how to turn this into an unforgettable Iceland adventure, not just a stressful chase for a view
