Invisible Fire by Joanna Jurewicz explores early Hindu philosophy through the Manusmṛti, Bhagavadgītā, and Mokṣadharma, showing that reality is a single cognitive field manifesting through subject-object perception. Drawing from Vedic roots and cognitive linguistics, Jurewicz argues that creation, bondage, and liberation are all epistemic processes. Misrecognition leads to suffering; liberation arises through refined cognition and self-recognition. The “invisible fire” symbolizes transformative awareness latent in ritual, memory, and selfhood. Integrating modern theories of metaphor, play, and responsibility, the book reveals early Smṛti as a sophisticated philosophy of consciousness rooted in tradition and aimed at ontological and ethical integration.

Allow things to get messy as you unpack the the deep feelings and find a way to dance through them. Simultaneously, clarity is arising about direction and which parts of your garden to fertilize and water. Read or listen to the full forecast at https://www.planetaryinfluence.com/forecasts/2025/AugNINE PLANETS SUMMARY SUN: The first half of August sees the Sun moving through watery Cancer with retrograde Mercury, pulling us through an emotional environment where we may not be sure what to say or how to express feelings. August 16th, the Sun moves into his own sign of Leo, normally a powerful transit for the Sun. Ketu's presence in Leo challenges leadership and self expression through mid-September while Saturn's aspect brings limitations.MOON: August begins with a waxing Moon that becomes full in Capricorn on August 10th, urging us to slow down and look around as we seek clarity. Through the middle of August, the Moon wanes, joining the Sun in Leo for the new Moon on August 22nd where we take stock, re-set, and prepare to pivot.MARS: Mars is in Virgo for all of August, leading us to take stock and regroup as we move forward deliberately into new campaigns while learning and healing from the sting of recent past lessons.MERCURY: Retrograde Mercury splashes in Cancer through August 10th, when he resumes direct motion and helps us sort our way out of snags. Use the latter part of August to pick up dropped threads, process emotionally, and reorganize communication and organizational tools.JUPITER: Jupiter continues to teach and preach from the streets of urban Gemini, bringing expansive enthusiasm for learning and growing. Until August 20th, Venus joins Jupiter, bringing positive creative energy to the signs of Gemini and Sagittarius.VENUS: Venus, ruler of social responsibility and relationships, joins Jupiter in Gemini through August 20th, urging us to attend to our learning trajectories and business management. When Venus joins Mercury in Cancer on August 20th, our attention may turn toward healing activities, including socializing with our close friends and family.SATURN: Saturn continues to churn and turn in Pisces in retrograde motion, walking us back collectively through the territory he traversed in the spring. This could show up as walking back on some fHello! I'm Kerry Shamblin and I practice jyotisha, also known as Vedic astrology.

Decode Your Birth Chart at https://www.quietmindastrology.com/101Become Your Own Astrologer at https://www.quietmindastrology.com/workshopIt's August 2025 and we're stepping into eclipse season by the end of the month. I'll walk you through all of it in this episode and invite you to join me for some of the most powerful trainings I offer.August 2nd kicks off with the Decode Your Birth Chart workshop — the one to attend if you've ever looked at your chart and thought, “What am I looking at?” I'll show you how to interpret the signs, planets, and houses so you can understand your chart and others' more clearly.August 9th brings the Full Moon in Shravana, Capricorn, an invitation to emotionally process what's unresolved from July's Mercury and Saturn retrogrades. This Full Moon is about listening inward, reviewing your routines, and aligning your day-to-day life with your deeper purpose. Sit in meditation. Listen to nostalgic music. Reassess what's working and what isn't.August 11th marks Mercury Direct in Cancer, but the shadow period continues through the month. During Mercury retrograde it's not a good time for starting new things. Let this time be about emotional catharsis, creative expression, and finishing unfinished business. I've been seeing tech issues, lost files, and missed details — all part of the process. Don't resist it. Laugh at it. Flow with it.August 14th is the Become Your Own Astrologer workshop, where I share the 7 steps to practice astrology skillfully and avoid the misinformation so common in AI and online tools. There's still no AI that's actually trained for Vedic astrology. They're all trained on Western. If you want to read accurate, astronomically based charts, this is where to begin.August 16th, the Sun moves into Leo, its own sign. Now's the time to “step into your power and let it go.” It's paradoxical, but with Ketu in Leo, the fire of personal power is being redirected toward spiritual growth. If you've been asking yourself, “Who am I? Where am I going?” — that's this transit.August 17th, we get a little reprieve with the Moon exalted in Rohini, a great day for self-care, yoga, walks in nature, spa days, or anything Venusian. Ways that you feel like you're taking care of yourself, enjoying life, enjoying the senses — very favorable.August 20th, Venus moves into Cancer, shifting the tone from emotional cleansing in Ardra to emotional nourishment. If the first half of August is about crying and catharsis, the second half is about comfort and connection. Deepen the friendship part of your relationship. If you're single and looking to date, the second half of August is quite nice.”Watch for overindulgence or overwhelm, but lean into creating beauty, intimacy, and play.August 23rd opens the Eclipse Portal, beginning with a New Moon in Leo (Magha) — this is when everything shifts. You go into it one way, you come out another way. This is a powerful time to reflect on your identity, your lineage, and what you're here to change. It's no coincidence the Vedic Astrology Mentorship begins the same day. If you've been practicing astrology by listening to this podcast, you're already an astrology practitioner. Now it's time to go deeper.August 30th, Mercury enters Leo, completing its post-retrograde cycle and bringing clarity, creativity, and spiritual communication. You'll feel this especially if you're studying astrology, personal development, or any self-awareness practice. You'll be ready to move forward with new awareness and clear thinking again.5 Key Ideas• “Feel it so you can heal it”• “Step into your power… and let it go” — Sun and Ketu in Leo are asking for humble strength.• “If you're listening to this, you are practicing astrology”• “We all get the same 168 hours a week. How do you want to use that time?” — Use the Full Moon to reflect.• “Find your gifts and give them away” — That's your purpose, and that's what this month is about.
ŚB 5.18.20He alone who is never afraid but who, on the contrary, gives complete shelter to all fearful persons can actually become a husband and protector. Therefore, my Lord, You are the only husband, and no one else can claim this position. If You were not the only husband, You would be afraid of others. Therefore persons learned in all Vedic literature accept only Your Lordship as everyone's master, and they think no one else a better husband and protector than You.Please feel free to join our Kṛṣṇa Consciousness Telegram group chat (for both prabhujīs and mātājīs): https://t.me/iskmnews

In this ethereal and unconventional episode, we explore the sacred realm of animal guides and allies. Animals can act as messengers from the unseen world - walking beside us, offering protection, insight, and connection. Whether appearing in dreams, crossing your path repeatedly, or popping up on bumper stickers, signs, or emojis, these beings may not just be symbols... they may be seeking you.We'll explore how animals have served as guides across cultures and traditions, how to recognize when one is reaching out, and how to begin tapping in to decipher what they may be telling you. If you've ever felt the mysterious presence of a creature in your life—or wondered which guide may be trying to find you—this episode will help you open your heart and senses to their call.YOUTUBE:Mars + Ketuhttps://youtu.be/J_gnbbOmqe8D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras, spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse
Śrīmad Bhāgavatam mentions that those who are chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa are at such a high level because The Holy Name is the pinnacle of all Vedic knowledge. "Aho bata śva-paco 'to garīyān yaj-jihvāgre vartate nāma tubhyam tepus tapas te juhuvuḥ sasnur āryā." Devahūtī says, "Aho bata śva-paco 'to garīyān," which means, "Oh, how wonderful it is!" "Tepus tapas te juhuvuḥ sasnur āryā brahmānūcur nāma gṛṇanti ye te." (SB 3.33.7) This means that those who have somehow or other come to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, even if it's just a little bit, with the tip of their tongue, they just say Hare Kṛṣṇa once —these people you should understand to have already graduated. There are levels of education. For instance, one has to go through a process to become a lawyer, an attorney, what to speak of after that, to become a judge. You know that if somebody is a judge, he or she has gone through law school, and that's why that person is sitting behind the bench giving verdicts. In a similar way, Devahūtī is saying, if someone can say Hare Kṛṣṇa, they have to be counted amongst those who somehow or other have come to this high level of connection with the Supreme Personality of God, through His Holy Name. And if someone can chant Hare Kṛṣṇa and does so with sincerity, it's also known that that person has superseded the level of Brāhmaṇism. So, accepting The Holy Name as one's life and soul and one's main meditation is the recommendation of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. At the outset of the Bhāgavatam, in the First Canto, First Chapter (SB 1.1.14), it is said: "āpannaḥ saṁsṛtiṁ ghorāṁ yan-nāma vivaśo gṛṇan tataḥ sadyo vimucyeta yad bibheti svayaṁ bhayam'" So, there's no difference at all between Kṛṣṇa and His Holy Name. Therefore, anyone can take advantage of the association of Kṛṣṇa and can get protection from Him just by saying "Hare Kṛṣṇa," because Kṛṣṇa is personally present. And near the end of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, it is said that the essence of everything is the chanting of Hari, the Lord's holy names. https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/3/33/7 https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/1/1/14 ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Reading a chapter of Bhagavad-gītā makes you smart, because the Bhagavad-gītā is, as Prabhupāda describes, The Vedic intelligence. It's all there in one place, and Kṛṣṇa is speaking himself. So you get to hear directly from Kṛṣṇa, and you have your intelligence fortified by the Vedic intelligence. So, which would you rather have: the intelligence of the combined forces of everyone who posts on the internet, consumed in 10-second bites at a rate of about 50 per 30 seconds, or would you rather have the infusion of Kṛṣṇa's words and His intelligence?

Charisma Quotient: Build Confidence, Make Connections and Find Love
Have you ever felt pulled toward someone by an invisible force, only to watch the connection fizzle out over time? Or wondered why you keep attracting the same type of partner, despite your best intentions to date differently? In Episode 404 of The Charisma Quotient, “Cosmic Compatibility: Secrets to Lasting Love with Carol Allen” Kimmy talks with renowned Vedic astrologer and relationship coach, Carol Allen, to decode the mysteries of relationship patterns, cosmic compatibility, and lasting love. Carol and Kimmy have a dynamic discussion about how the interplay of your past and family dynamics combined with astrology can shape your relationships. Carol shares her personal journey from relationship confusion to becoming a renowned astrologer, including the fascinating story of her own marriage.

The episode dives into the concept of "cosmic compatibility": what really happens when two people meet and there's an undeniable energetic flow. Carol unpacks how Vedic astrology analyzes both individual and combined charts to reveal innate temperament, relationship “capacity,” timing (your seasons and cycles), and specific compatibility factors. She explains why some couples experience effortless harmony while others feel like they're constantly hitting invisible walls, regardless of how hard they try.

Vedic Meditation isn't just about creating a couple of spaces in the day to enjoy some peace and tranquility. In fact, we are less interested in what happens during our meditation than what happens outside of our meditation. In this episode, Thom answers questions from listeners about commandments, charm, and déjà vu, which speak to the change of experience we can expect in day-to-day life.Although the questions vary greatly, the answers share a consistent thread that can be easily supported by personal experience.

Quietmind Astrology — Learn Vedic Astrology with Jeremy Devens
Download the free Mercury Retrograde Guide at https://www.quietmindastrology.com/mercuryjuly2025From July 17 to August 11, 2025, Mercury goes retrograde fully in the water sign of Cancer. This is part two of three Mercury retrogrades happening entirely in water signs this year—Pisces, Cancer, and then Scorpio. Each one brings an invitation to feel what we haven't fully felt yet… to process, heal, and finally move forward. “Feel it to heal it” is the essence of this cycle.This episode is your full Vedic astrology guide to Mercury Retrograde in Cancer. I walk you through the entire timeline—from the beginning of the shadow phase on June 29 to Mercury entering Leo on August 30—and how to actually work with this energy.
Hi everyone! In today's segment, we explore the New Moon in Sidereal Cancer and Mercury Retrograde in the same sensitive and emotional sign. The sign of Cancer is a reminder to soften, nourish, and to come home - within or literally. We also discuss how Mercury retrograde invites us to revisit the past, address loose ends, and do a little "emotional housekeeping." It's a fantastic time to deep clean your space, clear out old items, or even repair things associated with the the mother — whether it's your relationship with your mother, your inner caretaker, or the physical home itself.The New Moon in Cancer is an opportunity to evaluate where we feel safe, and more importantly, where we don't. What energies are we allowing into our emotional space that may not truly support or protect us? We explore these concepts throughout the segment and also discuss other astrological ongoings. Also a correction: The new moon will be at 2:10pm central time*DONATE: Austin Disaster Relief Network (ADRN)Austin Pet's AliveKerrville Pets AliveConvoy of HopeKerr County Flood Relief FundSalvation Army Southern New Mexico Community Foundation & Community Foundation of Lincoln CountyBeloved Asheville YOUTUBE:Mars + Ketuhttps://youtu.be/J_gnbbOmqe8D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras, spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse
Next Level Soul with Alex Ferrari: A Spirituality & Personal Growth Podcast
Robert James Comber discusses the ancient origins of astrology, tracing it back to the Dendera stone in Egypt and its connection to the Great Pyramid's measurements. He explains the concept of the "Star Law," which includes 36 deacons per zodiac sign, and how these deacons are linked to Greek myths, fairy tales, and biblical texts. Robert also connects astrology to the I Ching, explaining its binary code and its application in understanding the universe. He highlights the significance of the Lions Gate and the Age of Aquarius, and shares his discoveries in the King's Chamber, linking astrological signs to petroglyphs and Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper painting. Robert James Comber discusses his journey of developing modalities for healing and consciousness over the past seven years. He describes a transformative experience during the eighth Lions Gate, leading to the creation of a 250,000-word book and additional courses on quantum physics, the human genome, and astrology. Robert introduces the concept of "universal consciousness" and the eight mystical perfections from Vedic systems, such as the ability to manipulate size and gravity. He emphasizes the importance of consciousness evolution and self-organization, linking it to the harmonics of the earth and the Great Pyramid. Robert also shares his views on living a fulfilled life, the nature of God, and the ultimate purpose of life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.
Here's another mantra: "Scrolling makes you dumb, and reading a chapter of Bhagavad-gītā makes you smart!" Because the Bhagavad-gītā is, as Prabhupāda describes, The Vedic intelligence. It's all there in one place, and Kṛṣṇa is speaking Himself. So, you get to hear directly from Kṛṣṇa, and you have your intelligence fortified by the Vedic intelligence. So, which would you rather have: the intelligence of the combined forces of everyone who posts on the internet and consumed in 10-second bytes at a rate of about 50 per 30 seconds, or would you rather have the infusion of Kṛṣṇa's words and His intelligence? ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
Send us a texthttps://jilljardineastrology.com/shop/ book your reading and Sanskrit Mantra transmission session.Ever wondered why your manifestation efforts haven't yielded the abundance you desire? The answer lies in an ancient sound technology that modern manifestation methods often overlook.While visualization and "feeling as if" techniques dominate today's law of attraction landscape, they primarily engage only your mental and emotional bodies. What about the subconscious mind—that powerful force controlling 95% of your thoughts and behaviors? This is where Sanskrit mantras shine as transformative tools for manifestation, working directly to clear subconscious blocks while simultaneously raising your vibrational frequency.When properly chanted, these sacred sound formulas activate Shakti (divine life force), clear karmic patterns, and attune your entire being to the frequency of abundance. Whether you seek financial prosperity, vibrant health, fulfilling relationships, or simply more time to enjoy life, these mantras create the energetic conditions for manifestation.In this episode, I share five powerful Sanskrit mantras for abundance from my authentic Sanskrit Mantra lineage. Each mantra is taught with proper pronunciation and explanation of its energetic effects, with recommendations to chant 108 times daily for maximum benefit.Ready to transform your manifestation practice with these ancient vibrational technologies? The mantras shared in this episode have been carefully transmitted through an authentic guru lineage, ensuring their potency and purity. As my teacher wisely says: "Mantras are powerful, they are formidable, they work." Experience their transformative effects as you chant your way to prosperity and abundance. This grouping of mantras is specific to bringing more prosperity into your life. The mantras invoke the Goddess of Prosperity, Lakshmi, in Vedic teachings. Chanting to Lakshmi, and Kubera, the celestial treasure, will bring in more abundance in the form of money, good luck, helpful people, fortuitous circumstances, blessings and boons.Chant these powerful mantras 108 X to bring more abundance into your life.1) Shrim (Shreem): This is the bija mantra for the Lakshmi principle of abundance. This means all kinds of abundance, which can show up as material prosperity, spiritual abundance, peace as wealth, health as wealth, and more. 2) Klim (Kleem): Seed principle for attraction. This sound is commonly combined with other mantras to attract the object of desire. To powerfully attract wealth it can be combined with the Lakshmi seed, Shrim, and added to a Lakshmi mantra.3) Om Shrim Klim Maha Lakshmiyei Namaha (Ohm Shreem Kleem Ma-ha Laksh-me-yei Na-ma-ha): This is a prosperity mantra which combines the "shrim" seed for abundance with the "klim" seed for attraction with the Lakshmi foundation mantra.4) Ha Sa Ka La E I La Hrim- Ha Sa Ka La E I La Hrim (Hreem)This is a seed mantra for abundance to increase prosperity. This mantra consists of seed or "bija" mantras which activates chakras (energy centers). "Hrim" is the seed sound for the sacred heart. This mantra gives attunement to the celestial treasurer, Kubera. Lakshmi and Kubera work together to bring in more prosperity.5) Om Eim Klim Sau Sau Klim Eim: (Ohm I'm Kleem Saw Saw Kleem I'm)Brings in universal consciousness and the Saraswati principle of feminine spiritual wisdom to activate "shakti" (or the divine lifeforce energy) to attract desires including happiness, prosperity, love and liberation).*The information in this podcast is the intellectual property of Jill Jardine, and can not be replicated or useSupport the show

Some people feel uneasy even after doing something relatively harmless, while others can commit truly terrible acts without their conscience so much as flinching.In this episode, Thom explores how character forms the foundation of our conscience, while personality expresses it.Thankfully, the Vedic worldview doesn't leave us at the mercy of our flaws. Thom shares a time-tested approach that can transform even deeply flawed character traits and sharpen our ability to discern right from wrong.Timestamps:[00:45] Right vs Wrong[02:28] Selflessness vs Selfishness[04:30] Personality - The Delivery Mechanism for Character[06:56] Changing Character and Conscience Through Vedic Meditation[10:08] Developing Baseline Happiness[13:05] Happiness Through Hedonism[15:18] The Repercussions of an Identity Crisis[17:22] Vedic Meditation as a Solution to an Addict Mentality[18:40] Bliss Plus[21:05] Ayurveda - Relevant Longevity[23:02] A Great Conscience is a Reflection of Great Character

In today's segment, we explore Saturn Retrograde in the sidereal sign of Pisces, taking place from July 12th to November 27th/28th, 2025.Saturn is the planet of karma, consequence, hard work, and discipline. Pisces is watery, ethereal, spiritual, and deeply connected to the unseen realms. This transit stirs themes of the past, the subconscious, and spiritual reckoning.On a global scale, we may see heightened focus on water, oil, and gas industries, along with revelations or consequences linked to past actions. Saturn's retrograde can bring unfinished business to the surface—both collective and personal. Mystics, hidden affairs, or spiritual institutions may also be brought into the public eye.On a personal level, Saturn's retrograde offers a powerful opportunity to reconstruct daily routines, revisit unresolved karma, and realign with long-term goals. You may find yourself revisiting the past— to heal, conclude, and clarify.If confusion or uncertainty arises, do not panic: this is a time of gathering insight. The uncertainty is part of the process. As Saturn retraces its steps, it's illuminating areas of life where deeper clarity is needed—so that we may move forward with greater wisdom and peace.We also dive into current global events and how they reflect this powerful astrological energy.DONATE: Austin Disaster Relief Network (ADRN)Austin Pet's AliveConvoy of HopeKerr County Flood Relief FundSalvation Army Southern New Mexico Community Foundation & Community Foundation of Lincoln CountyBeloved Asheville YOUTUBE:Mars + Ketuhttps://youtu.be/J_gnbbOmqe8D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras, spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

Quietmind Astrology — Learn Vedic Astrology with Jeremy Devens
This is a guided meditation to give gratitude for our teachers.Without our teachers, we might feel lost. We might not have the success, the clarity, the guidance that we do. Especially in the yoga and meditation tradition, so much is passed down directly from teacher to student — generation after generation. Without the teacher-student relationship, these teachings would simply be lost.This practice is inspired by Guru Purnima, the full moon that honors our gurus — the ones who bring light where there is darkness. But this meditation can be done any time. Guru means “remover of darkness,” and Purnima means full moon. In the Vedic tradition, Jyotisha — the science of light — is at the heart of this. So today, we reflect on those who have brought light into our lives.You'll be guided to:– Find a comfortable position and settle into your breath– Bring to mind one teacher who's been influential in your life– Reflect on a moment, a feeling, or a presence they offered you– Silently express gratitude for them — even as if you're speaking to them directly– Continue through a timeline of teachers, mentors, guides — anyone who helped you see more clearly– Then shift to the people you've helped — students, clients, friends — and give thanks for the opportunity to be of service– And finally, you'll thank yourself — for showing up, for listening, for being your own inner guideThis is a gentle, healing, heart-centered practice. It's not about what your teachers said or did, but how they made you feel. Take this time to honor that.Even if you only have a few minutes, this meditation can reconnect you to the lineage of wisdom you're a part of — and bring peace to your heart.
In this final (for now) Vedic full moon wisdom episode, host Michel Ai Reavis illuminates the powerful spiritual and energetic currents of July's full moon in Purva Ashada Nakshatra, also known as the “Invincible Star.” Set within the constellation of Sagittarius, this nakshatra blends the expansive wisdom of Jupiter with the luxurious grace of Venus. Through sacred symbolism — from the winnowing basket of ego-shedding to the fan of fame and influence — Michel guides listeners to reflect on their true nature, encouraging a grounded radiance and soulful confidence in business and life. She lovingly reminds us that when we release what no longer serves, we become pure, magnetic vessels for divine abundance.Listeners are invited to deepen their inner journey through heartfelt journaling prompts and an affirmation that aligns with the flowing, cleansing waters of the nakshatra's ruling deity, Apas. The message is clear: this is a time to clear the inner riverbanks of our energy field so prosperity can move freely, effortlessly, and joyfully through us. Michel's gentle and wise reflections help us remember that we do not have to deserve abundance — we are abundance. All we must do is open, allow, and trust in the divine flow.To complete this cosmic journey, Michel draws a spirited card from The Whispers of Aloha deck: “Revel in the Wave” — a message of joy, peace, and presence. This vivid oracle invites us to dance with life's momentum, shift our energy through small soulful changes, and tap into the exhilarating beauty of the present moment. With the oceanic essence of Purva Ashada and the surfer's wisdom to wait, trust, and surrender to life's waves, this episode offers a powerful send-off for this full moon series. Tune in to reconnect with the sacred exhilaration of your dharma, your divine mission, and your infinite worth. Contact:michel@moneylighthouse.com
Guru Paduka Stotram is a powerful set of well-known devotional verses that glorify the sacred “Padukas (Sandals) of the Guru. Why are the padukas or sandals sacred? Because of association with the feet of the guru. In the Vedic culture, the guru as well as his/her feet are worshipped. The feet represent the path taken by the teacher, the path prescribed by the Vedas of a life of Dharma and Moksha. The verses in this stotram describe the glory of the Guru-padukas, the qualities of the guru and how a seeker's life transforms with a Guru's grace. We look into the meaning and revel in the Guru's grace.The transcript - https://arshavidyananda.in/314-gurupaduka-stotram-its-meaning-and-blessing/Our latest monthly newsletter - https://mailchi.mp/5a1d465a3f15/aarsha-vidya-bharati-jul2025Our monthly newsletter will bring you more happiness, more wisdom and more freedom.

Quietmind Astrology — Learn Vedic Astrology with Jeremy Devens
Today is the last chance to book a reading for this season at https://www.quietmindastrology.com/readingOn Thursday, July 10th, we experience a Full Moon in Sagittarius, within the Purva-Ashada Nakshatra—one of the most forceful and clarifying lunar mansions in Vedic astrology.This episode explores why this full moon is so emotionally potent, artistically charged, and spiritually clarifying. The full moon always marks culmination, celebration, and emotional illumination—a moment when we can't ignore what's rising to the surface.In this case, the light of the full moon shines in Purvashadha, a Venus-ruled nakshatra whose very name means “the undefeated.” It carries the force of water, the fierceness of truth, and the quiet determination of someone like Rosa Parks—a Purvashadha Ascendant—who simply said “no” to injustice and sparked a movement.This nakshatra is symbolized by a winnowing basket, an agricultural tool that separates the wheat from the chaff. That's what this moon is asking of you:What's real? What's noise? What's ready to be burned away so that your deeper truth can be heard?You'll also hear:– Why Venus rules this full moon and how to use that to refine what you truly love– What Apas, the water deity, teaches about emotional expression and purification– How to work with the element of force (Ugra)—not aggressively, but creatively and consciously– Why emotional rituals, music, journaling, and literal fire ceremonies are powerful tools this week– A look at inspirational Purvashadha natives like James Hetfield and Trent Reznor, and how they express this burning, purifying energy through musicYou'll be invited to:– Use the 80/20 principle in your emotional and creative life– Identify what's draining your energy and what fills your cup– Filter through relationships, projects, and patterns that no longer serve– Consider doing a burn ritual, journaling session, or emotional release practiceTo get your Vedic birth chart and learn how this full moon affects you personally, visit quietmindastrology.com or book a reading with me.

It burns through illusion and leaves only what's real.”3. “Water is soft, but it destroys what isn't built to last.

✨ About This Episode: In this powerful episode of the Wellness Pro Academy Podcast, host Cate Stillman sits down with David McConaghay, also known as Veda Dave, a board-certified advanced Ayurveda practitioner, Vedic astrologer, and wild mind guide. They dive deep into the upcoming Colorado Ayurveda Conference, scheduled for October 2nd to 5th, 2025. The conference's timely theme, "Indigenous Ayurveda: Celebrating Ancestral Forms of Nature-Based Medicine" , is explored as they uncover what Ayurveda truly is—a nature-based medicine originating from the Indian subcontinent —and delve into the profound concept of "indigenous Ayurveda," which aims to connect to the universal human experience of living in tune with nature's rhythms. This conversation reveals how ancient wisdom traditions, regardless of their specific origin, often share a conceptual understanding of elements like earth, water, fire, air, and ether. Discover how to embrace Ayurveda as "life wisdom" that is applicable to every time, place, culture, and ecosystem.
Excerpted from the Brihat-bhagavatāmṛta about the power of Saṅkalpa: "My dear boy, whatever you desire while chanting your mantra, by its power, you will fully achieve. Indeed, you will attain more than you desire." Commentary: Before performing any religious ritual, including the chanting of mantras, one should solemnly formulate one's saṅkalpa (intention), either verbally or mentally. In most Vedic sacrifices, one can expect one's saṅkalpa to be fulfilled only in the indefinite future, most likely in the next life. But by the blessings of his guru, Gopa-kumāra's specific saṅkalpas would all be quickly realized, as we shall see as his story continues. So, solemnly formulating saṅkalpa is like aiming your arrow before shooting it. And as is mentioned, it should be done to develop a determination, which means a firmness of purpose, a resoluteness. It's the process of establishing something exactly, typically by calculation or research. These are necessary to aim when we're chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, to aim ourselves as the arrow towards Kṛṣṇa. And "solemn" means characterized by deep sincerity. When we solemnize something, we're doing it duly, and we're doing it very formally. So, it's not casual. So, before chanting, if you clearly establish your purpose for doing it, you will gain immediate momentum and get in the mood of doing it. So this saṅkalpa is recommended. And I just ask all of you, if it's possible, to take just a moment right now. If you happen to have a pen and a piece of paper close by, you can try this experiment because it's a very useful exercise. And that is, just in one sentence, write down your main purpose in chanting japa this morning. You don't have to overthink it, but from your heart, with your determination, write down why you're chanting the japa this morning. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #makejapagreatagain #mantrameditation #chantharekrishnaandbehappy #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
July is yet another month of intensity and confusion as Mars and Ketu near their exact conjunction degree, Saturn and Neptune retrograde at 7 degrees of Pisces, AND Mercury retrogrades. In todays segment, we explore how to use the energy of Mars and Ketu to better support our lives and avoid unnecessary conflict. This combination can be used for GOOD when approached appropriately. Saturn and Neptune go retrograde, bringing blurring lines to our boundaries and discernment. This is a time of turning inwards, reflecting, and tapping into the Guru within, as opposed to outsourcing all of our guidance. There is an essence of uncertainty for the collective, and we may experience it in our personal lives as well. Kala Sarpa will be broken later this month, releasing heat and allowing for necessary reprieve. Though this month is yet another month of intense energy, there IS a path forward that can be graceful, courageous, and clear. Learn more here. We cover: July 4th - Neptune retrograde at 7 degrees of Pisces July 10th: Full Moon at 24 degrees of Sagittarius July 12: Saturn retrogrades at 7 degrees of Pisces - both Neptune and Saturn.

What if the Nazi Bell wasn't reverse-engineered alien technology — but the result of a covert, 19th-century human aerospace program? In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Walter Bosley — former counterintelligence specialist, author, and independent investigator — to explore the hidden history behind the so-called “mystery airships” of the 1850s and their connection to NYMZA, a secretive Prussian-backed organization. Bosley walks us through the lineage of propulsion technology that may have started with engineer William Rankine in 1849 and continued through a group of German immigrants in California — decades before the U.S. Civil War. Their alleged airship designs bear striking similarities to the mechanisms seen during the Great Airship Mystery of the 1890s... and even to schematics of the Nazi Bell. We dig deep into Dellschau's drawings, the classified airship projects that may have begun after the Civil War, and the theory that the Bell was inspired not by extraterrestrial tech, but by ancient Vedic science — supercharged by human innovation. Bosley also busts myths about the so-called “Haunebu” saucers, revealing them as postwar propaganda, not historical fact. This is a journey through suppressed history, alternative aerospace origins, and the hidden skies of America's past.

In this enlightening episode, I'm joined by my longtime astrologer and dear friend Jade Luna to explore the transformative power of Asterian astrology—a rare and ancient form of astrology rooted in Vedic tradition and sidereal star alignment. Jade has been my trusted guide since 2017, and his insights have profoundly shaped my life, business, and spiritual growth. Together, we dive into what makes Asterian astrology so different from Western astrology, and how it can serve as a tool for deep awareness, clarity, and alignment. We explore major global transits unfolding in 2025, how to navigate seasons of internal recalibration, and why Saturn in Pisces is creating a collective invitation to reconnect with our inner child, emotional truth, and divine path. Jade shares powerful predictions, how to use astrology without being ruled by it, and which signs (and star clusters!) are experiencing the most change and opportunity right now. Whether you're astrology-curious or a seasoned soul searcher, this episode offers a fresh lens on how the cosmos can help you remember who you really are. Liked this episode?

Just kind of a little stress.” And I look, 'cause I actually put it in my calendar, and I looked down and it was like “oh, I'm in a category one this week.” - Julie Solomon GUEST RESOURCES: Jade Luna @jadesolluna Ready to dive deeper into the ancient wisdom of Asterian astrology?

Modern day students have a great debt of gratitude to the Vedic masters who have captured and preserved Vedic wisdom for millennia, making it available for us to apply to our lives today.One of the most prolific of these masters is Veda Vyasa, who is recognized as being responsible for documenting as much as three quarters of the Vedic literature, and organizing, or “sequencing” it, in such as way that we are still able to access and apply the wisdom even today.In this episode, which includes questions from audience members, Thom gives as a brief insight into the life and work of Veda Vyasa, the Cosmic storyteller.It's a fitting prelude to Thom's upcoming residential course, Vedanta Vyasa, to be held in Sedona this coming July.

What if you came to Earth with a divine design and a map of your life already written in the stars? This week, Gervase sits down with Carol Allen, a Vedic astrologer with 34 years of experience to explore how this ancient system can offer profound insights into your life's purpose, relationships, and spiritual path. This isn't your typical horoscope chat. Carol shares how Vedic astrology—practiced for thousands of years in India—reveals your “celestial DNA” and why understanding your divine design can free you from the Western pressure to be something maybe you're not meant for, and help you live in alignment with your soul's true destiny. Listen to this episode to discover: Why Vedic astrology is different from Western astrology and how it works as “ancient technology” for understanding your soul's path How your chart is your celestial DNA, a snapshot of the Universe the moment you took your first breath Why Western hyperindividualism is making us miserable and how ancient wisdom shows us we're all interconnected frequency beings The concept of dharma and why you're not meant to force yourself into someone else's blueprint for success Why finding love isn't just about you, it's about both people's destinies aligning and what this means for taking pressure off yourself How to live at “the level of love” by being who you're truly here to be How vedic astrology can help you parent based on who your child actually is (as they come “pre-loaded at the factory”) How your chart reveals your natural gifts, relationship patterns, and even physical characteristics with stunning accuracy The cyclical nature of life and why expecting constant progression is making us miserable and exhausted Follow Gervase

What happens when ancient wisdom meets a modern heart that's ready to listen?That's exactly what unfolded for Lucy St. John. At just 23, a spontaneous experience of unity consciousness during a trip to India shifted the entire course of her life. Suddenly, she saw herself reflected in every human being—and that sense of deep connection lasted for months.In this heartfelt conversation, Lucy shares how that awakening led her to the Vedic tradition, 12 years of oral teachings, and a deep commitment to yoga, not just as movement, but as a way of being. From washing dishes in an ashram to chanting Sanskrit mantras with precision, Lucy reveals what it means to live yoga—not perform it.She opens up about the early days when no one showed up to her talks, the resilience it took to keep going, and the healing power of sound and silence. Whether you're a yoga teacher, practitioner, or simply curious about spiritual growth, this episode is a warm reminder that sometimes the most profound truths are the ones we already know—deep down.—-------—-------—-Episode Chapters:00:00:00 Introduction00:02:40 How Lucy Found Yoga00:06:13 Teaching Vedic Wisdom Before Yoga Was Popular00:14:02 What Is the Vedic Tradition?00:23:04 Mantras, Sound, and Vibration00:37:16 The Power of Just Being00:45:00 Ignorance as a Starting Point00:49:15 Shifting Energy in Yoga and Life00:56:05 Why Every Teacher's Voice Matters00:59:28 Inner Peace Before Outer Change—-------—-------—-
