October brings movement, revision, and an increasing sense that larger changes are beginning to unfold. Venus turns retrograde in Libra on October 2, beginning a creative and relational reworking that intensifies as Mercury joins her in retrograde motion on October 24, all while Rahu and Mars amplify an already active Libra environment. Retrograde Saturn returns to Uttarabhadra, reminding us to keep checking foundations rather than rushing toward completion, while the new Moon in Virgo offers a needed pause before the Sun joins the gathering in Libra. The full Moon in Aries on October 25 provides perspective amid the swirl, and Jupiter's move from Cancer into Leo on October 30 opens the next major chapter: a developing interaction between Jupiter, Mars, and Ketu that could bring deep and consequential change through the months ahead. Keep schedules flexible, stay connected, trust useful intuitive signals, and be ready to adjust when the landscape shifts.Hello!

It's never been easier to connect with others yet loneliness is reportedly the fastest-growing epidemic worldwide. In this episode, Thom explores why human beings are built for proximity, how consciousness affects us in subtle ways, and why technology cannot fully replace the richness of physical presence. He also expands the conversation beyond human interaction alone, pointing to a living, sentient Universe and the importance of participating fully in community, even when that comes with challenge. Listen to or watch this episode for the Vedic perspective on loneliness, connection, and what it means to truly relate.

“Everyone can understand that we drink the milk of cows and take the help of bulls in producing agricultural products. Therefore, since our real father gives us food grains and our mother gives us milk with which to live, the cow and bull are considered our father and mother. According to Vedic civilization, there are seven mothers, of which the cow is one.” (Shrila Prabhupada, Chaitanya Charitamrita, Adi 17.154, Purport)
September 27 - October 3: ROOM TO MOVEThe week beginning Sunday, September 27th starts with a newly waning Moon shining brightly from Pisces, at the side of retrograde Saturn, as the Sun moves through the middle degrees of Mercury's earth sign, Virgo. After moving to Aries, the Moon enjoys alone time through the week, traversing the empty first few signs of the zodiac. This could create a sense of space and perspective, inviting moments of rest in the midst of a continuing busy streak.While we aren't seeing any other planets shifting signs this week, we are seeing the current framework settling in for what could be the background to a dynamic October and November. Rahu and Ketu are sinking toward the early degrees of Aquarius and Leo, finishing up their current transit toward the end of November, pulling us in deeply toward a conversation about transforming legacy structures into what matches current conditions.Mars settles into his Cancer debility with exalted Jupiter, which offers us the opportunity for a major transformative shift that will require finesse in deploying force as we navigate changes in the upcoming months. Gaining positive encouragement and guidance from Jupiter, Mars then applies his strength and push toward his normal aspect angles, currently landing in Libra, Capricorn, and Aquarius. This pulls the puffed up strength of Mars into the whole Rahu, Mercury, and Venus story, building a theme of excitement, enthusiasm, and amplified activity.On Friday, Venus at 15 degrees Libra will initiate a retrograde cycle, increasing the tempo in Libra which only continues through October as Mercury also retrogrades on the 24th. This tempo could be quite frenetic, but also exhilarating in some cases, when it comes to creative streaks and magical connections. It is also an indication of shifting ground ahead, with the imminent Jupiter, Ketu, Mars action starting in November. DAILY KEYWORDS/NOTESSUNDAY SEPTEMBER 27: RECYCLEMoon in Revati, K1–2.

What if the ancient world understood forces of nature that we are only beginning to rediscover? In this episode, we explore the sacred knowledge and mysterious technology associated with ancient megaliths—from solar traditions and Vedic Solar Dynasties to telluric currents, plasma chorus waves, and the possible relationship between Earth, the Sun, and monumental stone structures. Were these sites simply temples and monuments—or could they preserve traces of a forgotten ancient science? In this exclusive interview, I am joined by researcher & host of the Space Water Podcast - R.A. CastaldoJOIN ME ON A TOUR
Our sense of security is based on illusion — confirmed by both modern science and the sages of the Bhakti Yoga tradition. A landmark psychiatric study reveals something startling about what actually determines whether we panic or stay calm. The Vedic sages were ahead of the curve, and put it plainly: we are living in two illusions — false terror and false security. The material energy is infinitely more powerful than us. True security comes only when we wake up from the dream and step into the spiritual truth, connecting with the power that is actually stable. In this episode Raghunath and Kaustubha explore what that looks like in practice. Srimad Bhagavatam 10.42.15-31 ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

Joni Patry reveals how a rare alignment of outer planets is triggering a massive shift in human consciousness, pushing us out of the outdated belief systems of the Age of Pisces toward Aquarian-era truth. She explains that modern global chaos—from political warfare to failing institutions—is the direct result of humanity resisting this inevitable evolutionary shift. Moving beyond fluff, she details how planetary frequencies act as cosmic pressure, forcing hidden corruption to surface so humanity can clear old karma and elevate its collective template.Delivering an urgent forecast, Joni warns that November will bring explosive political turmoil and disputed US election results as Mars hits a volatile eclipse degree alongside a violent Mars-Ketu conjunction. This chaotic energy detonates again in early 2027, paving the way for a major global peace breakthrough by July 2027 driven by a sacred Venus pentagram cycle. She also links extraterrestrial presence and AI to accelerating medical cures and preventing nuclear disaster, while outlining a crucial world and economic cleansing set for 2030.Grounding these cosmic cycles into daily action, Joni stresses that surviving this turmoil requires intentionally raising our personal vibration through love, calm, and real-world human connection. She highlights Vedic astrology and tools like the Galactic Planner app as essential maps to decode personal karma, understand life cycles, and reclaim inner stability. By mastering our inner drive and rejecting media-driven fear, we stop feeding global division and actively anchor a new reality.Will you let political drama and media fear drag you down, or are you ready to master your frequency and help anchor the coming peace?___
You know the picture. You have seen it on a studio wall, on the back of a book, on an app that wanted eleven dollars a month. Seven colored disks stacked up a vertical spine — red at the base, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet at the top. Somebody told you it was ancient, thousands of years old, handed down from the Vedic tradition. It has an author. His name was Charles Webster Leadbeater. He was English. He was a former Anglican priest. He published his book in 1927 when he was 73 years old, with ten color plates painted to his instruction. It is the single most influential book about chakras ever written in the English language, and almost nobody talks about him.⠀I take you through the whole story. What he actually said he saw. The chart he drew, which is not the chart you were taught. He has no sacral center. His second center is the spleen. His heart chakra is gold, not green. His brow does not have two petals — it has 96. His crown turns inside out in adepts, and he says that is what the halo is. He gives a physical mechanism for the chakras that nobody teaches — the petals are standing waves. He describes three separate forces running through you — primary force from above, vitality from the sun, kundalini from the earth — and warns his students that raising the third one prematurely can turn men into monsters. I also tell you the hard things about him, because his own biographer proved decades later that he invented parts of his own life story, and there was a scandal in 1906 that never entirely went away. I hold all of it together carefully. We take him seriously because there is something here worth taking seriously, and we hold him loosely because he did not ask for anything more.
Are fears about AI justified, or is it fear itself that's the problem? In this episode, Thom puts today's anxiety about artificial intelligence into a much larger context, from thermonuclear war to the Vedic understanding of consciousness itself. He explores why fear is the real danger, how Vedic Meditation helps stabilize awareness, and what it means to participate fully in life without panic. Listen to or watch this episode for a grounded Vedic perspective on AI, consciousness, and how to stay steady in uncertain times.

On September 20, 2026, journalist and corporate advisor Mr Gurumurthy Swaminathan delivered the Sri S G Sundaraswamy Memorial Lecture 2026 at Sai Hira Global Convention Centre, Prasanthi Nilayam, on “Relevance of Ancient Indian Philosophical Thought to Contemporary Times.”Exploring Indian philosophy in the context of modern science and artificial intelligence, he highlighted the distinction between knowledge and information and the enduring relevance of India's civilisational wisdom. He spoke on Dharma, family, community and shared responsibilities, emphasising their relevance to social harmony, economics and governance. He also reflected on the Vedic understanding of primordial sound and the transmission of knowledge across generations as a vital force sustaining Indian civilisation.The annual endowed lecture, instituted by Mr S S Naganand, Trustee, Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust, honours the late Sri S G Sundaraswamy and provides the university community an opportunity to engage with distinguished scholars and contemporary ideas.The event was attended by Mr Venu Srinivasan, Chairman Emeritus, TVS Motor Company and TVS Holdings; Mr K Chakravarthi IAS (Retd.), Chancellor, SSSIHL; Prof. B Raghavendra Prasad, Vice-Chancellor, SSSIHL; Dr Srikanth Khanna, Registrar, SSSIHL; Mr RJ Rathnakar, Managing Trustee, Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust; Mr S S Naganand, Trustee, Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust, and his family; along with senior members of both trusts, faculty and students of SSSIHL.
Crrow777 joins Graham, Darren, and Rose for a wide-ranging conversation about solar observation, lunar oddities, UFO footage, and why he believes mainstream cosmology is built on bad assumptions. The discussion centers on what amateur observers can actually verify with their own equipment and why that matters more than official narratives. This episode is especially focused on the sun and moon as observable realities, with Crow walking through his telescope methods, his footage, and his broader view of consciousness, deception, and the coming era shift. https://www.crrow777radio.com/ https://linktr.ee/telescope https://linktr.ee/crrow777 Our old episode with Crrow777 https://grimerica.ca/2015/03/27/109/ To gain access to the second half of show and our Plus feed for audio and podcast please clink the link http://www.grimericaoutlawed.ca/support.

He explains his "second sun" capture from 2015, arguing it is not Venus or Mercury and saying a later observatory clip publicly referenced it as the "second sun." We discuss the Tycho model, with Crow defending Tycho Brahe as the gold standard of first-hand observation and criticizing later systems as refashioned, socially engineered versions of the data. He argues the sun is much closer than commonly claimed, that the moon is a luminary, and that the current scale of the solar system is intentionally exaggerated. Crow describes the lunar wave as a repeated, filmable phenomenon that later showed up in front of the moon, Saturn, Jupiter, and the sun, and says he now thinks of it as a firmament wave. He walks through his solar imaging process, including hydrogen alpha filtering, black-and-white capture for maximum data, and why color is added later. We discuss his belief that the sun is electromagnetic rather than a nuclear furnace, with prominences and sunspot motion appearing to behave like plasma and magnetic patterns. Crow says chemtrails scatter sunlight and may be part of a larger effort to block what he sees as a consciousness and spiritual "download" from the sun. He recounts being censored on video platforms after covering false flag events, saying that experience pushed him to host everything on his own server instead. He shares footage of UFO-like objects, including a glowing orb, a thruster-like craft, and a possible vortex or portal near the moon, while stressing he only trusts footage he personally shot. Rose joins to explain how she helps organize the material, transcribe episodes by hand, and point listeners to the relevant footage and playlists. Crow closes with a prediction that the next major shift in consciousness will become more obvious around 2030 to 2032, with more turbulence before then. https://www.skool.com/audiobooks THE GRIMOIRE Audiobook Club and Library https://pegsandjokers.ca/ Family and Friends Cards and Pegs Boardgame online https://www.simulationmaps.com/#products Disaster Maps, Volcano Sim, Asteroid Sim, Shipwreck Map, UFO Map etc Support the show directly: https://open.spotify.com/show/2punSyd9Cw76ZtvHxMKenI?si=ImKxfMHgQZ-oshl499O4dQ&nd=1&dlsi=4c25fa9c78674de3 Watch or Listen on Spotify https://grimerica.ca/support-2/ Our Adultbrain Audiobook Podcast and Website: www.adultbrain.ca Check out our next trip/conference/meetup - Contact at the Cabin www.contactatthecabin.com Join the chat / hangout with a bunch of fellow Grimericans Https://t.me.grimerica grimerica.ca/chats Discord Chats Darren's books www.acanadianshame.ca Sign up for our newsletter http://www.grimerica.ca/news InstaGRAM https://www.instagram.com/the_grimerica_show_podcast/ Purchase swag, with partial proceeds donated to the show www.grimerica.ca/swag ART - Napolean Duheme's site http://www.lostbreadcomic.com/ MUSIC Tru Northperception, Felix's Site sirfelix.bandcamp.com Timestamps 00:00 - Reconnecting after 11 years and Crow's solar work since the last interview 00:58 - The first "second sun" capture and why he thinks it matters 02:01 - Vedic binary sun ideas and the claim that the object has its own electromagnetic field 03:31 - Why he says the object is not Mercury or Venus 06:28 - Hydrogen alpha imaging, sunrise and sunset conditions, and why the object is hard to see 08:55 - Tycho Brahe as the observational benchmark 11:57 - Why Crow thinks Tycho's work was later refashioned through Kepler and Copernicus 13:16 - Moon distance, the 400-to-1 eclipse claim, and why he rejects the standard story 14:14 - The observatory clip that labeled the object the "second sun" 16:04 - Space as planes, portaling, and why he does not buy the mainstream UFO narrative 18:44 - First-hand UFO footage versus AI-generated or staged material 20:48 - Why he distrusts most online footage unless he shot it himself 22:44 - The boomerang-shaped object crossing the moon 24:15 - Why his sun footage is filmed in frames and why motion has to be built from long captures 25:19 - Why he does not believe spacecraft have landed on the moon 26:15 - The moon as a luminary, hermetic enclosure ideas, and out-of-body observation in old texts 27:37 - The lunar anomaly lights and why they remain unexplained 28:12 - What the lunar wave looks like and why he thinks it is not unique to the moon 29:22 - The "liquid" space idea and wave distortion across the moon 30:30 - Leaving YouTube after censorship and moving to his own server 31:19 - The Mandalay Bay coverage, the deleted channel, and why he stopped publishing there 33:30 - Inverted sun images, filaments, prominences, and how his current setup changed the detail level 34:38 - Why he rejects the nuclear furnace model for the sun 37:16 - Sun gazing, eyesight, energy, and how he approaches it safely 39:05 - Sunspot stills, magnification, and hydrogen alpha filters 41:38 - Why he says amateurs, not institutions, are the best source for sky verification 45:05 - Liquid plasma motion, coronal mass ejections, and the frame-by-frame method 47:10 - Chemtrails, sunlight scattering, and his consciousness interpretation 48:38 - Sunlight, skin cancer, and his pushback against fear-based messaging 50:00 - Sun gazing practice, red-shift timing, and gradual adaptation 52:43 - Urine therapy, stem cell talk, and his current take on it 54:40 - Tycho, stationary Earth, and why he avoids turning it into a fight 56:18 - The plasma orb footage and why he thinks it behaves under its own control 57:27 - Ashton Forbes, orb theories, and his skepticism toward viral agenda-driven claims 60:24 - The three-thruster craft and why he believes it was falling 63:20 - The invisible vortex or portal near the moon 66:22 - Why his solar footage depends so much on seeing conditions 68:02 - How observing the sun changed his view of life and consciousness 69:03 - Saturn, Jupiter, and the wonder of seeing the planets through a scope 72:49 - Venus phase footage and why he thinks it resembles a moon 74:00 - Jupiter's moons, bands, and red spot as evidence against some flat Earth claims 75:27 - Why he thinks scale and map projections are used to shrink human importance 79:35 - Crow's 2030 to 2032 consciousness shift prediction 83:11 - The website, the film Shoot the Moon, and Rose's role in organizing everything 85:34 - Rose explains the social links, telescope footage, and how she helps listeners find material 87:50 - Closing thanks and reflections on how fast the last 11 years passed

September 20 - 26: CHAIN REACTIONWe are seeing the Moon waxing this week, starting in the sign of Sagittarius on Sunday, moving past Rahu mid-week, and culminating with the full Moon in Pisces on Saturday, September 26. Other than the Moon, Mercury is the only other planet shifting this week, moving out of Virgo where Saturn was slowing him down and providing structure. On Friday, Mercury slides into Libra, joining Venus.Libra is a focal point this week, with both of the rajas planets, Mercury and Venus joining up to get things moving. Not only is that combination lively and inspiring, those planets and the whole sign of Libra are receiving the compound aspect of Rahu from Aquarius and Mars from Cancer. Additionally, Mars from Cancer now aspects Rahu, so watch where you throw those sparks. And Venus, receiving the compound aspect of Rahu and Mars, is strongly potent in her own sign of Libra and is specifically in the constellation known as Swati, where Rahu's rulership dwells as an underlayment. This is a dynamic, potent, reactive, and wildly creative combination that could yield an amazing amount of action this week. Understand that putting both Mars and Rahu in the cauldron could cause quick and unexpected reactions. Be careful with chemistry this week and you may be able to exponentially grow your current projects. The ideas will be flying this week!The full Moon on Saturday hovers near retrograde Saturn, bringing clarity to puzzling situations and inviting us to pivot toward getting started and away from further preparation. Mars exactly aspects Rahu as the Moon becomes full on September 26. Moon will be in Jupiter ruled Pisces, with Uttarabhadra nakshatra layering in an even deeper Saturn influence. DAILY KEYWORDS/NOTESSUNDAY SEPTEMBER 20: FLOW INTO FINISHThe waxing Moon moves through Purvashada in Sagittarius. Carry forward what is already moving and direct your energy toward completion. Let momentum do some of the work rather than starting over.MONDAY SEPTEMBER 21: STANDING BALANCEThe Moon moves through Uttarashada as we reach the autumnal equinox. Find stability while conditions shift around you. Stand firmly in what is working while remaining willing to adjust your balance.TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 22: STABLE SATURATIONThe Moon moves through Shravana as the waxing cycle continues to build. Allow ideas and information to soak in. Listen, absorb, and give developing situations enough time to become clear before acting.WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 23: MOVE AND GROOVEThe Moon moves through Dhanistha as the week's energy begins to accelerate. Find the rhythm, coordinate your resources, and move with what is gaining momentum.THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 24: WILD RIDEThe Moon moves through Shatabhisha and past Rahu as the nodes return to retrograde motion. Expect some unpredictability and leave room for sudden changes. Stay flexible and be careful where you throw your sparks.FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 25: SHIFT GEARSMercury enters Libra and joins Venus as the Moon moves through Purvabhadra. Ideas, conversations, collaborations, and creative projects can accelerate quickly. Change your approach when necessary and use the increased activity productively.SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 26: ONWARD AND UPWARDThe full Moon in Pisces moves through Uttarabhadra near retrograde Saturn while Mars exactly aspects Rahu. Clarity can emerge around situations that have required patience and preparation. Take what you've learned, make the necessary adjustments, and move forward.Hello!

Who is a Hindu? And what does it really mean to be one? Many of us grew up calling ourselves Hindu, but the deeper we look, the more questions emerge. Is Hinduism a religion or a way of life? How did the gods and deities we worship today evolve? And what ideas hold together such a diverse philosophical tradition? In this conversation, Roshan Cariappa sits down with author Ami to explore the foundations of the Hindu worldview — from karma, rebirth and moksha to dharma, the cosmic order, questioning, pluralism and the evolution of Hindu deities. The conversation also looks at how Vedic gods evolved over time, why personal forms of the divine became important, and what makes the Hindu worldview inherently plural and comfortable with different schools of thought. This is a shorter version of the full conversation, bringing together some of the key questions and ideas from the original episode.
These Upanisads (c. 800-300 BCE) are almost always read from the point of view of the later Vedantins, but they do not share in the neatly tailored characteristics of the mature Vedantic philosophies, representing, instead, divergent, variegated and even conflicting narratives. In The Upanisads as They Are (Bloomsbury, 2026) the author focuses on the earliest of these Upanisads: Brhadaranyaka, Chandogya, Aitareya, Taittiriya, Kausitaki. These Upanisads are read “as they are,” emphasizing aspects of these texts that are often completely overlooked, among them: their Vedic approach to contradiction, their frequent acceptance of means other than gnostic knowledge of or veneration of atman/brahman as a means for liberation, their positing of entities/realities other than atman or brahman as totalistic, and their frequent depiction of the human body or embodied human as a microcosm of or in identity with the universe. In course, the interpretations of the Upani?adic view, the Vedantic view, for each of these Upani?ads, of Sa?karacarya (c. 800 CE) and Ramanujacarya (c. 1100 CE), as primary examples in the range of Upani?adic interpreters, will be examined and often refuted.

Join Rob McConnell as he welcomes Beatrice Marot, a Los Angeles-based psychic, Vedic astrologer, Tarot reader and spiritual advisor who became known for providing readings to people in the entertainment industry. The 'X' Zone archives describe Beatrice as a “Psychic and Tarot Reader to the Stars in Hollywood,” while another archived interview identifies her as a Hollywood spiritual advisor with decades of experience in psychic and astrological work. Beatrice's approach combines Vedic astrology, also known as Jyotish, with Tarot, clairvoyance, channeling, dream interpretation and visualization. She describes Jyotish as focusing particularly on karma—life lessons—and dharma—life purpose. Her work also incorporates what she calls awakening the “Goddess within,” representing the feminine, receptive and creative aspects of human consciousness. These practices are spiritual and metaphysical traditions rather than scientifically demonstrated methods of predicting future events or communicating with spirits. Hollywood plays a particularly colourful role in Beatrice's story. She has publicly identified clients including Robert De Niro, Robin Wright, Billy Zane, Michelle Rodriguez, Jesse Ventura and Arnold Schwarzenegger. She has also claimed experiences involving deceased celebrities, saying she has received communications from personalities including John Belushi, Lenny Bruce, Elvis Presley, Tupac Shakur, John Lennon, Johnny Carson and Don LaFontaine. Her autobiographical project, Movie Stars, Mobsters, Merlin and Me, was conceived around these claimed encounters and her experiences straddling what she describes as the physical and spirit worlds. Join Rob McConnell and Beatrice Marot on The 'X' Zone Radio Show for an entertaining journey through Hollywood, psychic readings, Vedic astrology, Tarot, celebrity encounters and alleged communication with the other side. Can astrology genuinely reveal something about our character and life's direction? Can consciousness somehow survive physical death? And when someone claims to receive a message from a Hollywood legend who has passed away, how do we determine whether we're witnessing psychic communication, intuition, coincidence—or simply a great Hollywood story?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all CANCOM/XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Ready to turn your gift for helping people into a real coaching career? Visit: https://riseandthriveglobal.com/positive-psychology-coaching/ Tom Cronin will tell you that thinking is very overrated, and he has 26 years on a trading floor to explain why. He is an international keynote speaker, author of six books, leadership trainer and the producer of the feature-length documentary The Portal, and he has taught meditation to everyone from six-year-olds in classrooms to senior executives at Amazon, Oracle, Qantas and Coca-Cola. None of that was the plan. He spent a decade as one of Australia’s leading bond and swap brokers, starting in the late 80s in a world he describes as very Wolf of Wall Street, and by his late 20s it had cost him chronic panic attacks, anxiety, depression, addictions, insomnia and eventually agoraphobia. He was diagnosed as having a nervous breakdown. Psychiatrists, doctors and medication followed, and none of it felt quite right. Not a spiritual practice What changed things was a style of meditation known as Vedic or Transcendental Meditation, in which a qualified teacher allocates you a mantra, a resonance you repeat silently that shifts your brain out of its busy waking frequency and moves the body from the sympathetic nervous system, where we fight or flee, into the parasympathetic, where we rest and repair. Most people assume meditation is spiritual. Tom sees it as physiological. Most of our challenges, he argues, are not psychological at all. They are stresses held in the body, what the Vedic tradition calls samskara, and deep rest is what lets the body release them. Uncomfortable is not the same as worse Catherine asked the obvious question: does it get worse before it gets better? Tom reframed it. Stress releasing is not the same as stress inputting. Think of the twitch you feel falling asleep after a frantic day, he says. That is the same process, and it is not a crisis, it is a healthy expenditure of energy. On retreats, where the work goes deeper, tears and frustration do surface, but they are held in a safe space and understood as a good sign rather than a bad one. What the body does when you leave it alone His favourite illustration is a broken bone. No doctor, no medicine and no therapist can mend it. All the cast does is create stillness, and the body’s own intelligence does the rest. Cut your arm on a rose bush and the bandage keeps your clothes clean while your body coagulates the blood, grows scab cells and then skin cells, with no instruction from anyone. Meditation, in his view, is simply the same principle applied to the nervous system. He is careful about what he claims. He will not say meditation cures disease. What he will say is that his own biological age was measured at 37 when he was 29, that stress is one of the biggest factors in ageing, and that he stayed in the same high-pressure job for another 13 years and the number went the other way. The story is not happening now This is where Tom departs most sharply from conventional therapy. We do not need to regurgitate the story, he says, because the story is not happening right now. What keeps the mind replaying it is the energy of it still sitting in the body. Clear that, and the memory loses its charge. He can retell his own history on a stage, in a book or on a podcast without being triggered by it, not because he has analysed it enough, but because the stress behind it has gone. The sky behind the clouds If you have ever said you cannot meditate because your mind will not stop, Tom has an analogy for that too. A fidgety four-year-old will not sit still if you tell him to, but give him something charming to hold and he will. The mantra charms the mind. And beyond the thinking there is a state he calls Samadhi, where the mind trades the charm of thought for the bliss of being. Imagine a lifetime of cloudy days, he says. You would assume the sky is grey. Then one day the clouds part and you realise the grey was never the sky at all. Tom left us with three shiny golden nuggets. Start the day deliberately, with movement, hydration, meditation and clear intention rather than a scroll and a double shot. End it deliberately too, shutting down technology by around nine, stretching, reading and naming five things you are grateful for. And if you have no teacher and no mantra yet, close your eyes and rest your attention on the cool air at the rim of your nostrils. Three to five minutes is enough to begin slowing everything down.

Twice each year, the Sun crosses Earth's celestial equator, bringing the Northern and Southern Hemispheres into an approximate balance of light and darkness. Yet the equinoxes are also periods of powerful movement, when the Sun's declination is changing most rapidly and Earth's magnetic environment tends to become more responsive to the solar wind. In this episode of the Kriya Yoga Podcast, Ryan Kurczak explores the astronomical and spiritual importance of the March and September equinoxes. Drawing upon Kriya Yoga, Vedic astrology, the chakra system, and the Sacred Year, he explains how the March equinox carries receptive possibility toward action, while the September equinox carries refined understanding into relationship and embodied life. He also considers how the annual solar cycle resembles the ascending and descending movement of a Kriya breath. The episode concludes with practical guidance for meditation and contemplation during both equinoxes, inviting us to experience these celestial crossings as opportunities for balance, receptivity, and conscious participation in the greater rhythms of life. -
Send a MessageIn this episode we dissect the anatomy of the magical rite, tracing the recurring structures hidden beneath thousands of years of magical practice. Across cultures and historical periods, magic displays an extraordinary diversity of forms—but beneath that diversity are persistent patterns.From ancient Egyptian magic and the Greek Magical Papyri to Babylonian witchcraft, Tibetan ritual, European folk magic, Lithuanian and Finnish charms, Vedic ritual and shamanism, we explore the conditions, materials, actions, incantations and spirits that make up the architecture of the spell.Why are magical rites performed at particular places and times? Why must materials be purified, combined, burned, buried or bound? How do sympathetic correspondences connect objects, people and supernatural forces? Why do spells invoke mythic events and divine names—and why do magical traditions around the world place such extraordinary importance on strange sounds, secret languages and seemingly meaningless words?Drawing on anthropology, history of religions, archaeology and surviving magical texts, this episode examines magic not simply as a collection of superstitions, but as a complex ritual technology: an attempt to construct a controlled environment in which places, objects, actions, words and spiritual beings are coordinated toward a particular end.And beneath all that formalism lies a paradox. Magical procedures are meticulously preserved, yet constantly adapted and reinvented. If the forms can change while their functions remain, perhaps the bewildering diversity of magical practice points toward something deeper: a hidden architecture beneath the art itself.Correction: 10:49A quotation concerning time as a function of “religious sympathetic relations” is mistakenly attributed to Fritz Graf.

I am delighted to welcome Dr. Shivani Gupta today for the first of two interviews. Dr. Gupta is the founder and CEO of Fusionary Formulas and the author of The Inflammation Code. She has both a master's degree and a PhD in Vedic sciences, where her dissertation focused on turmeric's role in inflammation, joint health, and cardiovascular health. In today's conversation, we explore the physical effects of chronic inflammation, habits to support stress reduction, the differences between inflammaging and normal physiologic aging, and ways to nurture ourselves in midlife (which Dr. Gupta calls the Vata season). We also discuss how ama can contribute to inflammatory processes in the body, digestive fire, constipation and strategies to address it, the importance of curcumin, and the research surrounding it. Dr. Gupta and I will continue our conversation on our next podcast together. Stay tuned for part two! IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Dr. Gupta shares the personal experiences that motivated her to write The Inflammation Code Environmental and lifestyle factors that contribute to the body's inflammatory burden Why inflammation can become more difficult to manage during the perimenopause and menopause transition How the symptoms of normal aging could actually be signs of inflammaging Dr. Gupta explains the Ayurvedic concept of Agni, or digestive fire, and shares ways to support digestion Practical Ayurvedic ways to support regular bowel movements How Dr. Gupta approaches gut and immune health after repeated antibiotic exposure The Ayurvedic approach to diet differs from restrictive or extreme eating patterns. The potential anti-inflammatory benefits of turmeric, curcumin, and other polyphenol-rich spices How culinary turmeric differs from concentrated curcumin extracts Bio: Dr. Shivani Gupta is an Ayurvedic practitioner, turmeric researcher, and founder of Fusionary Formulas. She holds a Master's degree in Ayurvedic Sciences and completed her PhD dissertation- specifically on turmeric making her one of the world's foremost experts on its pharmacology and clinical application. She is the author of The Inflammation Code, published by Hay House, bridging ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern inflammation science. Dr. Gupta is known for making complex science accessible without dumbing it down — her work speaks equally to the everyday health-conscious woman and to clinicians who want to go deeper.

September 13 - 19: MAKE IT STICKWe begin this week with a waxing Moon who joins Mercury in Virgo, finishing out the Mercury themed last week where we pulled together our resources and strength. There will be a few more days of the planets forming a chain by occupying adjacent signs, giving last week a feeling of flow and momentum. While things will keep flowing this week, the underlying shift is toward commitment to deep change.That momentum keeps clicking with strong Mercury placed in Virgo, giving us the opportunity to practice our methodology with the added aspect of retrograde Saturn helping us build and rebuild the structures around what we are actively working on. This is strong, active energy that centers around exchanging better, updated habits for legacy habits that don't support healing or growth.This week, we see the two masculine, fiery planets changing signs, with the Sun moving to Virgo on September 16 and Mars moving into Cancer September 18. This sets up two situations that will have short and long term relevance. With Saturn in occupation of Pisces, Sun in Virgo sets up our annual Sun-Saturn opposition, bringing themes of tension between hierarchical structures and popular demands.Another note about the Sun is that this will be the first week in quite awhile where the Sun does not combust any planets! That could translate to feeling like all the separate actors are doing their parts without interference from the director, resulting in Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter being able to express their agendas outside of the Sun's powerful orb. All three of these natural benefics are strongly placed this week: Jupiter exalted in Cancer, Venus in her own sign Libra, and Mercury powerfully dignified in Virgo. Use this growing clarity to keep yourself on track.The longer term set up comes from Mars joining Jupiter in Cancer. We are looking ahead to an extended state of interaction between Mars, Jupiter, and Ketu who will ply between Cancer and Leo, creating a dramatic planetary set up that could foster deep changes from November 2026 through March 2027.Daily Keywords & Notes:SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 13: DESIGN CHALLENGEChitra and Shukla Tritiya support creativity, skill development and constructive problem-solving. With the Moon moving from Virgo into Libra and joining Venus, take something functional and make it better. Design, edit, rearrange, learn a technique, improve presentation, or solve a problem creatively. Let beauty and usefulness work together.MONDAY SEPTEMBER 14: WIND BLOWNSwati and Shukla Chaturthi favor removing obstacles without becoming rigid about the solution. Declutter, troubleshoot, repair, simplify schedules, clear unnecessary commitments, and make room for movement. Don't try to control every variable; remove what is obviously in the way and leave some breathing room.TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 15: FINISHING TOUCHVishakha and Shukla Panchami support focused growth, learning and refinement. Complete details, polish work already underway, study what needs improvement, tend health or healing practices, and bring something closer to readiness. Direct ambition toward completion rather than continually expanding the project.WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 16: NEW CONNECTIONThe Moon moves through Anuradha after beginning the day near its deepest debilitation point, while the Sun enters Virgo. Allow emotional intensity to settle before deciding what it means. Anuradha favors friendship, cooperation, devotion and building alliances. Reach out, reconnect, collaborate, or discover a new relationship between pieces that previously seemed separate.THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 17: MAINTAIN BOUNDARIESJyeshtha and Shukla Saptami favor capable leadership and purposeful action, but responsibility doesn't require taking responsibility for everyone. Protect time and energy, clarify roles, maintain agreements, attend to health, and handle important matters directly. Know what belongs in your hands and what doesn't.FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 18: DEEP WORKThe Moon moves from Jyeshtha toward Mula during Shukla Ashtami as Mars enters Cancer. Choose work that benefits from concentration, courage and willingness to confront what's underneath the surface. Investigate, research, tackle a difficult task, address a persistent problem, or work at the root rather than treating symptoms. Avoid wasting force on emotional reactivity.SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 19: LET GOMula and Shukla Navami make this a powerful day for uprooting what no longer supports growth. Break a habit, purge clutter, remove a weak component, clean deeply, simplify, or release an attachment to how something was supposed to happen. Saturn's aspect encourages deliberate rather than impulsive removal. Let go of what has already shown you it cannot come forward.Hello!

What if UFOs aren't really about aliens?What if the real disclosure is about consciousness, non-human intelligence, and what human beings actually are?In this episode of The Infinite Spark of Being, Keith examines UFOs, UAP, NHI, Devas, vimānas, psi phenomena, and consciousness through the lens of Sanātana Dharma and Vedic cosmology.Thousands of years before terms like extraterrestrial, interdimensional, UAP, or non-human intelligence existed, the Vedic traditions described a populated cosmos filled with different classes of conscious beings—including Devas, Asuras, Rākṣasas, Nāgas, Siddhas, and Gandharvas—existing across different realms of reality.Keith also challenges the Christian tendency to interpret unknown non-human intelligence through the limited categories of angels and demons, explores the UFO secrecy and ridicule psy-op, the military-industrial control system, and the possibility that the mind itself is the gateway through which the phenomenon interacts with us.Maybe disclosure isn't ultimately about spacecraft.Maybe it's about discovering that consciousness does not emerge from matter.Maybe the phenomenon isn't revealing who they are.Maybe it's revealing what we are.UFOs aren't about UFOs. UFOs are about consciousness.Book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FB8ZPXXD Website: https://www.theinfinitesparkofbeing.com/ Merch: https://infinitesprkofbing.storenvy.com/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Oracle Deck https://a.co/d/0bOgiJsrthedeckofcharacter.comA Lot to Catch Up OnI am back from Chicago — and there is a lot I want to share before we dive into a week that honestly deserves its own documentary. Bear with me; Louise asked me to keep most of this in.The Chicago/UAC trip:I ran an OPA peer group for four wonderful people over four days in an Airbnb — deeply immersive, deeply draining, deeply wonderful. I gave everything I had and came out the other side genuinely moved. Then I went to the United Astrology Conference hotel, attended an OPA dinner where I got to see so many people I love, and recorded the Kepler College Book Club live from UAC with my friend Mary Gatterudz about my series book. That's on the Kepler College YouTube channel if you want a lively discussion. I also attended a pre-workshop run by Mark Jones — an English astrologer and former psychotherapist whose work I love — and finally got to meet him in person after Zoom-only connection.I didn't stay for the whole conference. 1,500 astrologers in a hotel is a little too peoply for me. But I learned something: I can go to the hotel, meet the people I want to see, and skip most of the lectures. The lectures are available to buy by recording anyway. The connection is the irreplaceable part.The OPA and The Professional Astrologer:If you're interested in becoming a more professional astrologer, I genuinely recommend OPA — the Organization for Professional Astrology. They run peer groups and mentorships, a consulting skills course, and an Astronomy for Astrologers course. What I love about their certification is that it's not a test of your techniques and knowledge — it's about how you actually work with clients. That's the whole thing.The new revised and expanded edition of The Professional Astrologer is out, and I have a chapter in it about writing for astrology. It covers everything from the power of peer groups to the pros and cons of practicing as both astrologer and psychotherapist, to the nuts and bolts of being financially viable. Worth getting a copy.Sphere and Sundry:In my gift bag from the pre-workshop was something I want to share: an essential oil by Sphere and Sundry — sphereandsundry.com. She makes what she calls talismanic materia — remedial-grade astrological elections using organic, wild-crafted ingredients and natural oils. She describes them as a good transit in a bottle. The one I received is Venus in Taurus 3, Amatory — and I genuinely feel this was meant for the Venus Retrograde class, given Venus is heading toward Scorpio and opposing Chiron in Taurus. I'll be using it. Worth checking out.Upcoming presentations:Atlanta Astrology Association, September 17th — I'm presenting on Ceres, and apparently first-time attendees can come free. Email me at louise@louiseedington.com if you'd like the invitation details. I believe it's at 7:30pm Eastern.OPA Live, September 20th — a panel of three astrologers on the Venus retrograde. A great way to hear more about the retrograde and decide if you'd like to join the class.London School of Astrology, Chiron Weekend, October 17th–18th — on Zoom, $99, and most of the proceeds go to charity. I've been recommended by Melanie Reinhart and Brian Clarke, which still makes me catch my breath. If you're interested in Chiron and what his first return to his discovery degree means, this is the weekend for you.Venus Retrograde: Heroine's Journey — we start October 1st. Three weeks and three days from when I'm recording this, and I still have slides to finish. The price remains at $397 for the basic seven-week, eight-call course. Dragon Rider adds a year of Spiral Codex membership, a 30-minute one-on-one reading with me, and a personally chosen gift I'll mail to you — all for $500 added on. First run since 2017, and it's grown considerably since then. This is not just an astrology class — it's a guided inner journey with meditations, healing tools, and more than a little magic. louiseedington.com/VenusRetrograde2026AstroTheoros has added a lot since I last mentioned them:* Terms and decans (multiple systems), zodiacal releasing, dasha (Vedic), perfections* Fixed stars, minor aspects, vertex, lots of fortune and spirit* Additional asteroids including Ceres and Haumea and Chariklo (yes!)* True/mean/oscillating Black Moon Lilith options, White Moon* Show and hide aspect lines* A way to add your own external AI assistants — they've made a conscious choice not to incorporate AI themselves, but for those who want to, they show you how* Chart copy as image in one click; lock chart; time travelCloud-based, works on any device.

I think it might be a little bit explosive. Watch for it.The Cards — A First GlanceFrom the Red Seeds Tarot, the Witch Oracle, and the Deck of Character (available to buy again — links in the description):The Hierophant reversed. The Fall. Eight of Torches reversed. The Story Keeper. The Shield.That set of five says everything about this week: the guru structure collapsing, the descent into the depths, the delays and darkness of the no-moon phase, the call to rewrite the story, and a practical shield for the extraordinary amount of information that's incoming. More at the end.The Astrology at a GlanceThis is possibly the biggest week since the basket peaked in July. On September 10th alone:* Venus enters Scorpio at 0° — the exact degree of her Cazimi/Star Point on October 23rd* Mercury enters Libra — swapping signs with Venus, both heading toward retrograde in Scorpio* Uranus stations retrograde at 5°41' Gemini* The Virgo New Moon is exact at 11:27pm Eastern (separate video — go watch it)Before that: the Moon occults Jupiter on September 8th at 15° Leo — a world point. An occultation is like an eclipse of Jupiter: the Moon literally passes across the face of the planet, hiding it. This is relatively rare, and what it passes over matters. It passes over Alaska, Canada, the USA, and Greenland.The nodes remain at 29° until October 9th. Hekate has moved back past the North Node. Venus reaches the anaretic degree of Libra. Uranus barely moves all week — it's standing still. The news will be off the charts. That's not hyperbole.Day by DaySunday, September 6 (the first day of the week)The Moon is out of bounds in Cancer — way out of bounds — and there aren't many major aspects, which makes the day quieter than what follows.Moon conjuncts Ceres — the Moon in its own sign, the Great Mother in the Moon's sign, saying together: self-care, nurture, family. I chose to come home early from Chicago rather than stay through the whole conference. The Moon conjunct Ceres was opposing my Saturn, and I listened. My second daughter got engaged this month (both daughters in August — family, family, family).Venus opposes Vesta in Aries — your inner flame, your focus and commitment, your devotion to your own identity in the world. Pay attention to what comes up around that.The Moon squares Saturn retrograde (letting go of more self-limiting beliefs), sextiles the Sun at 14° Virgo (past South Node and Regulus — we are moving, even if it doesn't feel that way yet), then crosses Asteroid Lilith and Mars in Cancer — talk to the hand; what aligned, protective, guardian action are we taking now?The Moon then squares Pallas Athena and trines Nessus — seeing the poisons more clearly, with strategy and pattern-recognition behind the seeing.Monday, September 7The Moon is still in Cancer, starting to come back in bounds but not quite there.Moon sextiles Mercury — emotions and mind integrating, coming into conversation. As we move into the dark of the moon, this is an invitation: bring your feeling and your thinking together. Let them inform each other.Moon squares Eris — more inner table-flipping. What old beliefs, assumptions, and perceptions need to be overturned within you? The outer tables are turning everywhere. The inner ones matter too.Moon opposes Juno in Capricorn — our sacred contracts with the structures we live under. What have we been living by? What new structures do we want to birth? Conservative in sign, but the opposition is pushing for something different.The Moon then makes a T-square to Vesta and Venus — everything pointing inward. What are you devoted to? What are you creating? And pay attention to what comes up around Venus territory (values, relationships, desires, justice) — she goes retrograde to 22° Libra, and you're walking that ground now.At 12:49pm Eastern, the Moon enters Leo — and immediately squares Chiron in Taurus. What medicine are you bringing into your heart and into your body?The Moon then opposes Pluto (the shadow to the surface, and then the buried treasure), trines Neptune (spiritual warrior energy, the felt sense of interconnection), and sextiles Uranus — which is almost at a complete standstill. Uranus barely moves all week. It's concentrating its energy at 5° Gemini.Tuesday, September 8 — The Jupiter Occultation at 15° LeoI need to give this one proper space.At 2:36pm Eastern, the Moon occults Jupiter at 15° Leo.Fifteen degrees of a fixed sign is a world point — a degree of collective significance, felt beyond the personal into the global. And an occultation is like an eclipse: the Moon literally passes directly across Jupiter, blocking it from view. Jupiter's expansive energy — the king, the expander, the judge, the natural law — is being hidden. Absorbed. Transformed.What does this mean? Some delay in expansion. Some pause in the opportunities that have been opening. But more than that: a transformative phase. The energy of Jupiter goes underground and re-emerges with new qualities. This is the king being taken behind closed doors for a reckoning.The path of this occultation passes over Alaska, Canada, the United States, and Greenland — countries that have presented themselves, historically, as the dominant voices in global affairs.And here is what I genuinely cannot make up: the day before, the UN voted to adopt the Equal Earth Map — a new global projection that more accurately represents the actual size of the world's continents. On this map, Africa is significantly larger than we've been taught. South America is bigger. The USA, Canada, Greenland, and Russia are smaller — a more truthful picture.The USA was the only country in the UN to vote against it.Jupiter is expansion. The occultation tracks over the countries whose mapped expansion has exceeded their actual size. The timing is extraordinary.Jupiter will meet the South Node in Leo three times as it heads toward it — the fall of kings, of superpowers, of the power-over paradigm that has organized so much of modern history. Things are evening out. We're watching it happen.After the occultation, the Moon trines Pallas Athena — the strategic warrior and pattern-seer. The Moon is back in bounds. The patterns are becoming visible.The Moon starts the day at 6° Leo — the discovery degree of Chariklo. Note that. And Mercury in Virgo trines Juno — sacred contracts looked at through the lens of stewardship, meaningful work, the humble desire to do the right thing rather than the right thing as performance.Wednesday, September 9 — Dark Moon. Moon at the Eclipse Degree. Moon Conjuncts South Node.We are entering the dark of the moon — the three-day no-moon phase before the Virgo New Moon on Thursday night.The Moon is in Leo, moving toward the Sun, getting within 30° of it. And it starts the day at 20° Leo — the exact degree of the August 12th Solar Eclipse.The Moon conjuncts Hygieia at that eclipse degree — holistic, preventative health. Then trines Pallas Athena, trines Vesta, sextiles Venus at the anaretic 29° Libra. Everything pressing toward the border crossing.At 3:17pm Eastern, the Moon conjuncts the South Node at 29° — the nodes holding that eclipse degree until October 9th, charged with everything that's unfolded since August 12th. The Moon — the people, the collective emotional body — meeting the drain of the old paradigm. Having just occulted Jupiter the king. Having just been at the eclipse degree. Having just moved through all those aspects.Fall of kings. Fall of leaders. Fall of the power-over paradigm. The Moon and the people conjunct the South Node at the degree of the eclipse.You literally cannot make this up.After the South Node conjunction, the Moon moves into Virgo and conjuncts Regulus — which happens every month now, as the Moon cycles through, but this month it carries the full weight of what's been building. And Venus, still at the anaretic 29°, simultaneously sextiles the South Node and trines the North Node — releasing and building simultaneously. She is leading. After her retrograde, she is heading for the Aquarius North Node. She already knows the destination.Hekate has moved back beyond the North Node into Aquarius, going back over the ground she needs to integrate before moving forward again.Thursday, September 10 — Sign Changes and a New MoonWhat a day. Honestly, what a day.At 4:06am Eastern, Venus enters Scorpio. At 0° Scorpio — the exact degree of her Cazimi/Star Point on October 23rd, the heart of her retrograde. She is stepping into the territory she will descend through, previewing the deepest point of her underworld journey. And this Star Point at 0° Scorpio is the last Scorpio Venus Star Point in our lifetimes — I believe the next isn't until 2177. It is also the star point return for the USA. Make of that what you will.The underground river of the Venus retrograde is flowing. You can feel it if you listen.The Virgo Moon squares Uranus — which is barely moving, preparing to station.Ceres opposes Pholus — where have our needs not been met? The lid is off. Pandora's box, again. Seeing what we needed to see so we can finally move forward.At 12:20pm Eastern, Mercury enters Libra — swapping with Venus in a kind of cosmic dance. Venus has left Libra; Mercury enters. Both are heading for Scorpio and retrograde. Both will station direct on November 13th — the same day. This is rare, and I'll go deep on what it means in the Venus retrograde class.Venus at 0° Scorpio opposes Chiron in Taurus — the axis of the entire retrograde. The wound and the medicine. What is our medicine for becoming fully human in a world that has forgotten it?At 2:27pm Eastern, Uranus stations retrograde at 5°41' Gemini. Five degrees — the number of change. Gemini — media, news, communication, information. Mercury at 0° Libra (a world point) as Mercury's own sign stations into retrograde. The news is going to be off the charts.The Sabian symbol for 6° Gemini (rounding up): Workmen drilling for oil. James Burgess says: an insatiable questing for knowledge and information that can take us deep into emotional process and the uncovering of dark secrets. A zealous appetite for knowledge and understanding.The Omega symbol (Sandbach): In the far north, an ancient tower carved of ice. The degree angel is Manakel — accountability and knowledge of good and evil. He says: you have so many thoughts and perceive so many ideas that it can become difficult to decide where to focus. Don't let this overwhelm you. Keep focused on the flow. There is a spiritual rightness at work beneath all things. The simple intent to stay attuned to it is your magic.The Chandra symbol: A claw foot holding a ball. The attempt to grasp wholeness, to overcome Gemini's fragmented quality — fixing the liquid into a substantial form from which you can ascend to see the surrounding territory. The struggle is not in trying to put things together. It's to resist the distractions of lesser and trivial things.The Pleiadian symbol: A sinkhole opens up in the earth. Things are collapsing.The Azoth symbol: A book of formulas. Astrology is a symbolic language, just as mathematics is, just as alphabets are. We are writing new stories. Which brings us to the Story Keeper arriving in the cards.At 11:27pm Eastern, the Virgo New Moon — exactly nine hours after Uranus stations retrograde. I've done a full separate video and post for this. Please watch it. But know that the new moon landing nine hours after Uranus's retrograde station, with Venus and Mercury both freshly in new signs, with the basket energy still active — this is not a quiet new moon. The seeds you plant tonight carry all of this.Friday, September 11 — 25th Anniversary. Venus Day.Rest in peace all who were lost on this day.The Moon is in Virgo, just minutes past the new moon, still in the no-moon phase. New lunar cycle beginning.The Moon sextiles Mars — what aligned action are we taking now? Not the push-push-push of unchecked ambition, but the stewardship energy, the guardian energy, the action that comes from genuinely wanting to be of service.The Moon opposes Nessus — still more poisons to be named and seen. But I don't think we're much longer in this. I really don't.Mars in Cancer squares Pallas Athena in Aries — they're moving apart, but Mars is still learning: less attack, more guardian. Less force, more protection. From within, this means the same. Talk to your inner Mars.The Moon trines Juno and then moves into Libra at 7:51pm Eastern.Saturday, September 12 — Moon Conjuncts Mercury. Air Kite. Cardinal Grand Cross.The Libra Moon conjuncts Mercury at 2°31' Libra — and note the degree: 2°31' Libra directly opposes the last Venus Star Point at 2° Aries (March 22, 2025). The previous Venus retrograde's deepest point, directly activated as the Moon and Mercury meet in the sign of balance and justice. Venus is reaching back through time, reminding us of what was seeded then, and asking: what has been growing since? What is ready to be harvested — or released?Balance, harmony, justice, scales — the Mercury-Moon conjunction in Libra is a fertile meeting of heart and mind in the sign that seeks fairness. There could be some genuinely good news today.The Moon trines Pluto (more shadows illuminated, more buried treasure found), opposes Neptune forming a kite, and trines Uranus still at its station point. Fire and air kite pointing at Neptune in Aries — the spirit of new beginning, the dissolution of the old, the love-thy-neighbor energy as the basis for everything we're trying to build.Juno squares Pallas Athena — our sacred contracts pressing against the wise strategy. For me, this is the table-flipping energy of Eris in a longer arc: where unfettered power-over and greed have caused harm to people, the contracts that maintained that are collapsing. And we can have something better. The form of things that's collapsing — in politics, in institutions, in how we organize society — was always imperfect. What we build next doesn't have to be.Mercury trines Pluto, then opposes Neptune, then trines Sedna and Uranus — an air kite closing the week. Rational understanding, shadow revealed, adapting to what needs to change, the breakthrough aha moments. Stay with it all. Let it sift.The week closes with the Moon squaring Pholus and Ceres and then opposing Saturn — a brief Cardinal Grand Cross, initiating. New things beginning. Something that was seeded at the new moon is putting out its first tentative root.The Cards in DetailThe Hierophant, reversed:The original Hierophant — one who reveals sacred things — was from the Eleusinian Mysteries. There was one male Hierophant and two female Hierophantides, appointed for life, who revealed divine knowledge to the initiates and welcomed them with the laws of the Mysteries: only those with pure hands and hearts could enter the rites.But in the last quarter of the Great Wheel — as the patriarchy rose, as the rites were co-opted, as direct access to the sacred was replaced by institutional intermediaries — the Hierophant became the one who stood between you and the divine.This card, reversed, is saying clearly: you have access to divine knowledge yourself. You do not need an intercessory. Let go of the attachment to gurus and external teachers as the gatekeepers of truth. You can challenge the tradition. Everyone — everyone — has access to the sacred within them.This arrives in the week that Jupiter is occulted, that the South Node continues its fall of kings, that the astrology community continues reckoning with its own pedestals. Make no mistake: the Hierophant reversed is speaking directly to all of it.The Fall:In this deck, this is Persephone going into the underworld — and that descent is what the rites at the Eleusinian Mysteries were really about: the fall of the soul into the orbit of the Moon, not as punishment, but as initiation.The patriarchy reframed the fall as shame — the fall from grace, the fall from perfection, the original sin. The real fall, as I understand it, was the descent into the patriarchal paradigm itself. And that is what's falling now.Persephone descending is Venus descending. The Venus retrograde is coming. The underground journey — done consciously, with guides, with courage — is not the fall from grace. It is the fall toward grace.Eight of Torches (Wands), reversed:In the dark of the moon, with Uranus at a standstill and so many signs changing simultaneously — yes, you may feel like you lack momentum. Delays, obstacles, nothing quite moving forward. That's the reversal.But here's what's actually happening: knowledge is being revealed to you. There is so much coming in this week — the occultation, the sign changes, the station, the new moon, the news. The work is to let it in without being overwhelmed. Receive it. Let it settle. When the moon starts to gain light — which it will, very shortly — you will be able to see more clearly.The Story Keeper (Witch Oracle):“You are made of moonlight and stories. The night and the trees know this. Which is why, when you need a change in your narrative, you would do well to seek their counsel.Some stories lift us up and encourage our potential, our inherent magic. Other stories limit, diminish, or destroy our worth. You are being asked right now to consider which stories you are listening to, and which ones you are telling.Telling yourself a story of empowerment will bring a surge of energy to you. Notice how your shoulders drop, your breath deepens, your heart warms. Telling yourself a story of scarcity or disempowerment leaves you tight, small, and cramped.While we are very selective about the books we read and the stories we watch on film, we are far less selective about the stories we tell ourselves. Now is the time to question the narratives you are allowing into the ear of your spirit. Are they helpful or hurtful?A witch acknowledges her stories of lack and frustration, but she chooses to focus on the ones that nurture her vitality.”This is the Azoth symbol of the week — the book of formulas. We are writing new stories. The Story Keeper asks: which one are you writing?The Shield (Deck of Character):This is an extra card this week, from a deck I love that's available to buy again — link in the description.It's the dark of the moon. A lot of information is incoming — the news around the Uranus station and the new moon is going to be significant. The Shield says: energetically, protect yourself. Not to deflect the knowledge — we need that — but to deflect the inconsequential things. Create a boundary so you can collect what matters, and let it sift in its own time. This is a big week. You don't have to process all of it in real time.Summing UpThe Jupiter occultation at a world point, tracking over countries whose global dominance is being rebalanced on the new world map. The Moon conjuncting the South Node at the eclipse degree, the people meeting the drain, having just occulted the king. Venus entering the exact degree of her coming Star Point in Scorpio — the last Scorpio Star Point in our lifetimes. Mercury entering Libra as Venus leaves, both heading toward their retrogrades and their simultaneous direct stations. Uranus stationing at the number of change in the sign of media and news. The Virgo New Moon nine hours later. A cardinal Grand Cross to close.The Hierophant reversed says: you have always had access to the sacred. You don't need anyone between you and it.The Fall says: Persephone's descent is not a punishment. It is an initiation.The Eight of Torches says: let the knowledge land. It's doing that right now.The Story Keeper says: question the narratives you're allowing into the ear of your spirit.And the Shield says: you are going to need good energetic boundaries this week. There is a spiritual rightness at work beneath all of this.

Another of the phrases that Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta especially appreciated was in number six. It says, "Absolute is sentient; thou hast proved. Impersonal calamity; thou hast moved," which is a reference to the fact that many so-called teachers of the Vedic system give an impersonal conclusion that the Ultimate Truth is impersonal, and this is incorrect. One need only refer to the Bhagavad-gītā, where Kṛṣṇa says things like: brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham amṛtasyāvyayasya ca śāśvatasya ca dharmasya sukhasyaikāntikasya ca to understand that He is the source of impersonal Brahman, or kleśo 'dhika-taras teṣām avyaktāsakta-cetasām avyaktā hi gatir duḥkhaṁ dehavadbhir avāpyate (BG 12.5) Kṛṣṇa mentions the pursuit of impersonality causes great suffering and is a stumbling block to coming to the perfection of life. So, who would remove that? Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī, by his very straightforward, strong preaching. In this talk, Śrīla Prabhupāda mentions the paramparā system. He specifically refers to it. You should listen to the lecture; it's only 24 minutes long (not that you wouldn't listen to it if it was longer, I'm just saying it's 24 minutes). In this lecture he specifically mentions that this is the paramparā system. He said that the student shouldn't always remain a student, and then he says, "No, you should always remain a student, but also the student has to become the next teacher." He said, "Just like I have received this message from my spiritual master, and now I'm teaching it to you." Similarly, you have a responsibility that although you always remain mūrkha, or fool, in front of your spiritual master—always submissive—still, you should become teacher next to pass it on to others." He said that is the responsibility of being in the Śrī Guru Paramparā. On Śrī Vyāsa-pūjā Day, we're worshipping Śrīla Vyāsadeva with the concept that the paramparā is for the dissemination of knowledge for the welfare of all. The highest truth is reality distinguished from illusion for the welfare of all. The guru is a principle and also a person. So we have this simultaneous appreciation on the Vyāsa-pūjā Day for the principle of Śrī Guru Paramparā.

This week has an underlying Mercurial theme, as Mercury leaves the currently complicated sign of Leo, strongly glowing with the Sun's presence while also showing us the long term rough patches that obstructionist Ketu has revealed since mid-2025, recently loosened and revealed after the August eclipse cycle. Mercury moves on to more productive things, entering his own sign of Virgo on Sunday, September 6th, where he gains the compound aspect of Saturn, who supports Mercury's humble approach to practice, and Mars, who shares Mercury's enthusiasm for efficiently getting work done.The waning Moon begins the week joining Mars in Mercury's air sign, Gemini. Moving through Cancer and meeting with Jupiter on Monday and Tuesday, we could benefit from some self care and reconnection. Wednesday seems vulnerable, with the Moon moving past Ketu into its final waning phase, protect your energy. On Thursday, the Moon pivots as it glides invisibly past the Sun in Leo for the new Moon, providing a pregnant pause where we can see what comes next after an active summer begins to come to a close.The newly waxing Moon joins Mercury in Virgo to finish the week, indicating that this is a week for finishing up Mercury's analytical air side of current projects or situations, pausing and pivoting on Wednesday and Thursday, and with a push from a newly waxing Moon, move toward hands on, practical implementation as the week ends.Mercury's underlying influence comes with it strongly moving into Virgo, but we also have the Moon starting and ending the week occupying Mercury ruled signs, and we have retrograde Saturn placed in a Mercury ruled nakshatra, aspecting Virgo. And pushing Mercury toward an energetic week is Rahu's aspect to Gemini jump starting Mars, whose force then projects toward Mercury in Virgo. September in general is providing good energy for clearing, processing, and producing. Coming up in October, both Mercury and Venus will take retrograde motion in Libra, and with the extra amplification of Rahu's aspect, things could get exciting. Prepare for what you can't see coming by reorganizing, settling on schedules, and finishing up important foundational tasks. Daily Keywords & Notes:Sunday, Sept 6— FINISH TO STARTArdra/Punarvasu, K10–K11, Moon + Mars, Mercury enters Virgo. Excellent for finishing lingering work, sorting information, making repairs, clearing communications, completing a task that has been blocking the next one, and getting tools/materials in order. Mars can make the Moon impatient; use that force on the work rather than the people.Monday, Sept 7 — YES AND NOPushya, K12, Moon in Cancer. This is discernment through nourishment: what gets fed and what doesn't? Restore energy, tend home, food, family and practical resources; maintain what is worth maintaining. A good day for boundaries precisely because Pushya's impulse is to nourish.Tuesday, Sept 8 — TAKE THE WINAshlesha, K13, Moon + Jupiter. K13/Jaya supports accomplishment and resolution, while Jupiter gives some breadth to what could otherwise become Ashlesha entanglement. Finish negotiations, solve something complicated, recognize progress, consolidate a gain. Don't keep wrestling after you've won. Wednesday, Sept 9 — CLEAN SWEEPMagha, K14. Very strong pairing. Rikta Chaturdashi plus Magha/Ketu: discard, purge, clean, sever, finish difficult business, clear inherited or habitual clutter, literally or metaphorically. With the Moon newly past Ketu and approaching darkness, conserve energy rather than beginning something demanding.Thursday, Sept 10 — SEEDS OF CHANGEPurva Phalguni, K15/Amavasya. Retreat, rest, observe, prepare. Purva Phalguni can remind us that regeneration requires pleasure, ease and receptivity—not constant productivity. Don't dig the seed back up to see whether it's growing. Let the pause be fertile.Friday, Sept 11 — GERMINATIONUttara Phalguni, S1, Moon + Mercury in Virgo. Start something modest and concrete. Make the schedule. Begin the routine. Organize the workspace. Put the first piece into production. Shukla Pratipada + Virgo favors small beginnings capable of becoming systems.Saturday, Sept 12 — HANG LOOSEHasta, S2. Hasta could tempt you into gripping too tightly. S2/Bhadra wants stabilization, while Hasta is skill of hand. Work with what's in your hands, adjust as you go, make something, practice something, negotiate, cooperate. Competence without rigidity.Hello! I'm Kerry Shamblin and I practice jyotisha, also known as Vedic astrology.

What if safety is not found in the familiar, but in our willingness to move into the unknown? In this episode, Thom explores why the ever-repeating known leads to stagnation, while greater context, transcendence, and Vedic Meditation awaken more of our human potential. From brain power and stress to evolution, ancestry, and consciously designed change, he offers a grounded Vedic perspective on what it really means to become an extraordinary human being. Listen to or watch this episode for a practical and expansive reframe on change, relevance, and the courage to evolve.Episode Highlights[00:45] Beyond the Body Story[03:59] The Guru Gives Context[07:36] Consciousness Shapes Experience[10:27] Scarcity Is a Brain-Power Problem[13:54] A Renaissance Brain Awakens[16:57] Stress Eats Brain Power[20:30] The Ever-Repeating Known[24:38] Design Change or Deteriorate[28:17] Your Ancestors Were Adventurers[31:28] The Cognitive Revolution[33:52] There Is No Going Back[36:44] The Human Spirit Explores[38:01] Meditation Launches Into the Unknown[40:40] Thank You for Making Me Worthy Useful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
Why does trauma you never personally lived through still show up in your body? In this episode, I answer a listener's question about inheriting war trauma from both her father and grandfather — a "functional freeze" in the root chakra that even ayahuasca couldn't shift.We explore what it really means to carry generational trauma: why the freeze response is a form of protection rather than a flaw, why psychedelics can retraumatize instead of heal, and how the Black Tantric practice of confronting death can move deeply frozen fear into resilience and power. I also share the practical, sequential steps for releasing root-level trauma — starting with physical safety, moving through your relationship with money, and ending in ancestral honoring practices, including specific timing based on the lunar cycle and Vedic astrology.This is generational, patient work. It won't resolve in a single ceremony or a single episode — but it can be understood, and it can be walked.If this episode resonates, I invite you to apply for my private mentorship, the Path of Power, where we go even deeper into building your own value system and safely exploring your relationship to money, power, sexuality, and the concept of God.
Mark Zuckerberg, cancer vaccines, Neuralink, CERN, AI robots, technocracy, surveillance, ancient civilizations, and the Biblical end-times implications of modern technology all collide in this episode of Neph 2 America with Jon Pounders and Shane Cashman.The conversation begins with humanoid robots from China and America before moving into Elon Musk, the X payment ecosystem, Neuralink, self-assembling technology, and speculation about whether brain-computer interfaces could eventually resemble the Biblical Mark of the Beast. From there, the crew discusses Kanye West, rap and counterculture, Green Day, Tim Pool, Charlie Kirk, and the way politics, entertainment, and technology increasingly shape culture.A major discussion centers on Mark Zuckerberg and Meta after a headline about Zuckerberg being expected to take the stand as 29 states accuse Meta of deliberately designing Facebook and Instagram to keep young users hooked. The group breaks down doomscrolling, addictive reward systems, social-media algorithms, depression, blue light, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and the Biblical concept of taking thoughts captive.Jon Pounders and Shane Cashman then dive into technocracy, Elon Musk's family history, Nikola Tesla, Oppenheimer, the Akashic Record, Vedic technology, UFOs, Trump time-travel lore, and the possibility of technologically advanced “breakaway civilizations.” That leads into the Hindenburg, East Palestine, the movie White Noise, predictive programming, UFO reports, Charlie Kirk speculation, Lebanon, Baalbek, ancient giants, Nephilim, Tartaria, and mud-flood theories.Later, the crew reacts to a headline about Moderna and a Phase 3 cancer-vaccine trial, opening a broader discussion about vaccines, the cancer industry, sunscreen, sunlight, artificial suns, CERN, particle accelerators, black holes, cryptid sightings, the Mandela Effect, altered perceptions of time, and the Georgia Guidestones.The episode closes with the infamous fear segment, including 15-minute cities, Flock surveillance cameras, AI surveillance, data centers, and questions surrounding massive water consumption.Which topic deserves its own full episode?

This week Sarah sits down with Dr. Tony Nader, a physician, neuroscientist, and leader in the Transcendental Meditation movement, to explore one of the biggest mysteries of our existence: consciousness. Together, they explore the relationship between the mind and body, science and spirituality, meditation and creativity, and what it means to access a deeper sense of self. On this episode of Moonbeaming you'll hear: How Dr. Tony Nader went from physician and neuroscientist to studying consciousness and Transcendental Meditation What consciousness actually is and why Dr. Nader believes it extends far beyond human consciousness How meditation can create a state of inner silence while maintaining deep alertness and awareness Why stress and fear narrow our consciousness and limit the possibilities we can see How calming the nervous system can create more space for creativity, intuition, and clearer decision-making The connection between meditation, the brain, creativity, and the default mode network How Transcendental Meditation can help us reconnect with what Dr. Nader describes as our deeper, truer self What it means to live from a place of greater consciousness, connection, and care --- Dr. Tony Nader is a physician, neuroscientist, Vedic scholar, and leader of the Transcendental Meditation movement. A Harvard- and MIT-trained scientist, he is the author of Consciousness Is All There Is and his newest book, The Power of Caring, which explores how caring is rooted in consciousness and how we can cultivate deeper, more fulfilling connections with ourselves and others. https://drtonynader.com/ --- Join Our Community: Join the Moon Studio Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themoonstudio Buy the 2026 Many Moons Lunar Planner: https://moon-studio.co/products/many-moons-2026?srsltid=AfmBOopThx1yrmKl0tMjecc_EFeeN5DAiIafqPqvQ4Uke1WEi5droeam Subscribe to our newsletter: https://moon-studio.co/pages/newsletter Find Sarah on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gottesss/
We're often told that we live in a world full of toxic behaviour, but is it the world that's toxic or is it our view of it that gives it a toxic flavor? In this episode, Thom explores the true source of toxicity: the stress we carry that makes us sensitive to the inputs from the outside world. As always Thom has a solution that allows us to remove those stresses and develop the resilience we need to be less disturbed by the forms and phenomena we come into contact with on a day-to-day basis. Listen to or watch this episode for a grounded Vedic perspective on toxicity, stress reactivity, and the invincible integrity of the inner Self.

The Supreme Person: Who is Krishna?What if the friend we have been searching for has been with us all along?An ancient Vedic analogy describes two birds sitting together in the same tree.One bird is constantly trying to enjoy the fruits of the tree—sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter. It represents each of us, moving through life searching for happiness, struggling with disappointment, and continually hoping the next experience will finally satisfy us.The other bird simply waits.This is Paramātmā—the Supreme Soul, accompanying us within the heart, patiently waiting for us to turn toward Him.In this fifth talk from The Bhagavad-gita — A Guide for Life, we move beyond the question “Who am I?” to another profound question:“Who is God—and what is my relationship with Him?”The Vedic teachings describe three features of the one Absolute Truth: Brahman, the all-pervading spiritual reality; Paramātmā, the Supreme Soul accompanying every living being; and Bhagavān, the Supreme Person—the ultimate object of love.And at the heart of these teachings is Krishna.The Bhagavad-gita presents Krishna not as a distant God disconnected from our lives, but as the source of both the material and spiritual energies—and the eternal friend of every living being.We may experience loneliness even while surrounded by people. We may continually search for someone or something that will make us feel complete.But perhaps part of that longing comes from having forgotten our deepest relationship.The spiritual journey is therefore not simply about discovering what we are.It is about discovering Whom we belong with.And remembrance of Krishna doesn't have to be confined to meditation, temples or religious rituals.Krishna says: “I am the taste of water.”Even something as simple as drinking a glass of water can become an opportunity to remember the Supreme.The eternal friend we are searching for may have been beside us all along.Chapters 00:00:00 Arjuna's surrender and the foundation of spiritual knowledge 00:01:53 Krishna consciousness as the highest form of yoga 00:04:37 The three features of the Absolute Truth: Brahman, Paramatma, and Bhagavan 00:08:43 Paramatma and the two birds in the tree analogy 00:12:58 Bhagavan, the soul's servant identity, and divine love 00:16:30 Krishna's avatar, transcendental form, and liberation 00:22:02 Free will, perception of Krishna, and divine reciprocation 00:26:38 Illusion, impersonalism, and Krishna as the basis of Brahman 00:31:46 Ishvara, Purusha, and Krishna's material and spiritual energies 00:38:09 Loneliness, eternal relationship, and Krishna as the origin of all 00:41:06 Vedic creation, material elements, and remembering Krishna in daily life 00:45:59 Devotion, surrender, chanting, and the accessibility of spiritual life 00:52:33 Invitation to questions and final encouragement#BhagavadGita #GuideForLife #Krishna #Paramatma #BhaktiYoga #SpiritualWisdom #SelfRealization #GodRealization #YogaWisdom

Because it was the close of the eclipse portal with the lunar eclipse on śrāvana pūrnimā (pisces full moon) tonight, we were all in a reflective and contemplative mood and so in this talk, we discuss some of the tensions, paradoxes and contradictions inherent in the transmission of Tantra throughout the ages with the early sadhus in the Vedic era to the Śaiva Siddhantins to Ramakrishna to Vivekananda and to us in the modern context, before plunging into some practices from the Kāmakalā-Vilāsa & the japa krama from our vāmācāra paddhathi.

Sarah and Jane sit down with Amanda Walsh, founder and CEO of Astrology Hub and author of the new memoir Life by the Stars: A True Story of Letting Go, Looking Up, and Remembering Who You Are. Amanda traces her path from a buttoned-up corporate life in New York City, three degrees deep and checking every box, to an unraveling that started with an emergency C-section, a toddler hurling her Blackberry across the room, and a cross-country move to Hawaii with no plan and no internet. She talks about the first astrology reading that cracked her open, why she calls it her first evidence of God, and how a friend's throwaway comment about an unused domain name turned into Astrology Hub. The conversation moves through the difference between astrology's various schools (Vedic, Western, evolutionary), why Amanda offers that astrology is one language with many dialects, and her mango tree metaphor for why some people are ready for a leap before others are. She and Jane also dig into the current planetary moment, the Leo-Aquarius axis, and why Amanda thinks we are all living through an unprecedented collective transformation. Key Takeaways Sometimes the system you trust most (medical, educational, corporate) breaking down is what finally shows you it was never the whole truth to begin with Astrology is not one fixed system. Different traditions (Vedic, Western, evolutionary) are different dialects of the same underlying language, and it's fine to take what resonates and leave the rest Not everyone is ready for the same leap at the same time, and that is not a flaw. Some fruit ripens early, some ripens late, but it all ends up in the same place Tension and hard transits are not punishment. They are pressure pointing toward something in you that wants to resolve Feeling like everything is uncertain right now is not a personal failure to have it figured out. It is a collective experience showing up individually You do not need permission to reinvent your life more than once. The version of you built for one chapter does not have to be the final version Notable Quotes Amanda, on her first astrology reading: "This is my first evidence of God." On timing and readiness: "The yes that's pulling us is stronger than the fear that's holding us back." On living through this moment: "It's freaking terrifying as hell. But like, my god, it's also kind of fun." On the Capricorn archetype: "Capricorn is not just a goat... it's a sea goat, part goat, part mermaid," both climbing the highest heights and exploring the deepest depths.

Anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, panic disorder, depression – beneath the specific symptoms of almost every mental health condition there is a fear of death at the root. This is the conclusion of a landmark study that synthesized 129 studies across 38 countries and 58 years of research. "Death touches a nerve. Quietly, constantly. It shapes how we live, how we suffer, and how we heal." The person with OCD isn't really afraid of germs. The person with social anxiety isn't really afraid of embarrassment. What we're really afraid of is death. In this episode Raghunath and Kaustubha explore that finding alongside the Vedic tradition's answer: the panacea for mental and social disorder is spiritual knowledge. Our misidentification with the material body causes all our fear. Srimad Bhagavatm 10.38.15-21 ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

In this talk, Kriya Yoga Teacher Ryan Strong explores connection as an essential part of spiritual awakening. Beginning with a personal experience involving the Vedic ancestral practice of pitṛ tarpaṇa and an unexpected discovery about his own family lineage, Mr. Strong considers how meaningful connections, intuitive guidance, relationships, teachers, nature, and spiritual practice can support our return to our essential nature. Using the image of a great tree sending its roots toward water, Ryan offers a practical way to evaluate spiritual growth: Is your life expanding into greater connection, understanding, acceptance, and freedom, or becoming increasingly limited by fear, judgment, habits, and attachments? He discusses following the deeper guidance of the heart, drawing strength from the spiritual lineage, living according to truth and ahimsa, and having the courage to make changes when something restricts our growth. Ultimately, meditation provides the deepest restoration of connection, bringing awareness back to stillness and the recognition that the light we seek is our own essential nature.

If life has felt unusually intense, uncertain, emotional, or even a little chaotic lately, you are not alone. We are in eclipse season, a liminal space in which what has been hidden can rise to the surface. Familiar structures may begin to shift, and life can seem to move faster than our minds can fully process. On August twenty-seventh, we experienced a powerful partial lunar eclipse. In Vedic astrology, lunar eclipses are associated with culmination, revelation, emotional release, and the illumination of unconscious patterns. But no two eclipses carry exactly the same energy. The nakshatra, or lunar mansion, in which an eclipse occurs helps determine its particular nature. Each of the twenty-seven nakshatras carries its own planetary ruler, presiding deity, symbolism, and spiritual purpose. An eclipse moving through a nakshatra associated with nourishment, for example, may illuminate themes around belonging and emotional security, while an eclipse occurring in a nakshatra connected to transformation may initiate endings, awakenings, or profound inner change. This eclipse takes place in Shatabhisha, a nakshatra associated with healing, mystery, truth, and the uncovering of what has been concealed. Its name is often translated as one hundred healers or one hundred medicines. Yet Shatabhisha can also bring periods of solitude, disruption, or emotional distance, asking us to turn inward and encounter the parts of ourselves that are ready to be understood and healed. And while an eclipse carries a collective theme, it does not affect everyone in precisely the same way. Its personal significance depends upon where the eclipse falls within your individual birth chart, which planets it touches, and how its nakshatra connects with your own. This is why one person may experience a relationship shift, another may feel called toward a new purpose, and someone else may feel simply exhausted, sensitive, or deeply reflective. Today, we are joined by a dear friend, Nara Singh, to help us understand the deeper significance of eclipse season through the wisdom of Vedic astrology. We explore why eclipses can feel so destabilizing, how the nakshatras shape their expression, and how we can move through these cosmic thresholds with greater awareness rather than fear. If your life feels messy right now, if relationships are changing, emotions are surfacing, or the path ahead suddenly feels unclear, this conversation is here to remind you that you are not alone. Perhaps the chaos is not evidence that everything is falling apart. Perhaps something hidden is simply becoming visible so that a more honest and aligned chapter can begin.

What if the real problem with dopamine is not too little or too much, but the modern urge to treat it as the source of human experience rather than its product? In this episode, Thom explores the Western fixation on active ingredients, from neurochemicals to nutrition to pleasure, and contrasts it with the Vedic understanding that Nature knows how to restore balance when consciousness settles down. Through this lens, he explains why Vedic Meditation supports order, assimilation, and relevant behavior more effectively than a life built on manipulation and control.

In response to a listener's question, Thom explores why the Unified Field becomes manifest, and why creation expresses itself through sequence, variety, and storyline. Using Homer's Odyssey and the metaphor of the bow, he shows how pure potential becomes lived experience, and why not knowing may be part of the richness of evolution.
