Yes it’s true, Venus stations retrograde today. This astrological season ‘peaks’ on November 16th and then gradually dissipates until December 18th. Pay attention to sources of stress and frustration during this time, especially related to love, money and the ways in which you seek feelings of validation, acceptance and approval. Does it come from a person, from having lots of money, from how you present yourself to others? Retrograde energy calls us to look inward and work on becoming more self-reliant, learning to give ourselves the love we tend to seek from outside. It also calls us to look to the past to gain fresh perspective, perhaps by reflecting on a past relationship or business partnership, or to forgive a grievance you have been holding onto. Stay tuned for more tips! All in Love ❤️🙌🏾 #peace #namaste #namastrology #astrologylover #asabovesobelow #holisticastrology #yogateacher #yogalifestyle #yogaforeveryone #conaciousliving #relationships #breakups #romance #selfawareness #spiritualawakening #spiritualjourney #selflove #retrogradevibes #astrovibes #astrologyforbeginners #astrologyforyogis #love #truelove #venus #innerpeace #meditate #grateful #tunein #learnastrologywithme

Full Moon Vibes and I LOVE this image to represent free-flying Aries! 🌕🙌🏾 Aries energy rules your impulses, your desire for freedom, your sense of independence and the expression of your personal needs. It is bold and takes action confidently; it shoots from the hip and isn't held back by fear or overthinking. How liberating! This energy rules the physical body, your mind (your sense of self) and your gut instincts. The Full Moon in Aries emboldens you to express yourself honestly and authentically, and gives you greater access to your fundamental needs, free from the influence of others. Use this energy to tap into your instincts and make important decisions. At the same time, remember that the opposition of Sun and Moon at the time of the Full Moon represent the call for balance and can bring attention to where you may need to share your 'power' with others - this can include asking for/accepting help, letting go of aggression or competitive tendencies, or giving more focus to the needs of others in relationships. For more insights, check out my Full Moon in Aries article at Namastrology.com. Wishing you healing, strength and newfound confidence this Harvest Moon! ❤️ Peace #fullmoon #astrovibes #fullmooninaries #fullmoonmadness #astrologyandyoga #namaste #namastrology #tunein #lunarastrology #yogateacher #astrology #astrologyforbeginners #aries #freedom #freebird #wild #instincts #gutfeeling #gowithyourgut #innerknowing #confidence #courage #change #bebold #empowered #spiritualjourney #spiritualawakening #woke #innerpeace #om

Whenever a planetary retrograde season starts, I start by exploring the ‘essence’ of that planet’s energy and how it influences our experience. The Venus retrograde season gradually started rolling in 9/3, will ‘peak’ on 11/16 and finally fade out around 12/18. One of the key things that Venus rules is how we love, how we experience love and what we ‘give’ to others in the name of love. Take a moment to reflect on what this means for you. If you know where your Venus is in your birth chart, that can also give you insight. During retrograde season, we tend to feel the energy of Venus as diminished or coming more from WITHIN ourselves, but that’s generally difficult to access because most of us rely on receiving love and appreciation from others and have less experience generating it for ourselves. This is precisely why so many suffer or feel a lack of self esteem during this time; it’s a muscle that needs to be ‘flexed’ in order to be strengthened. Venus retrograde calls us to build up our sense of self love and to learn (or remember) that no outside source can tell you whether or not you’re ‘good enough’ 🙏🏽✨Peace✨ #astrologyforbeginners #namaste #namastrology #astrovibes #septemberhoroscope #retrogradevibes #venus #venusretrograde #selflove #relationships #love #loveislove #loveloveslove #confidence #youareenough #innerpeace #empowered #loveyourself #yogateacher #yogalifestyle #yogaforlife #spirituality #spiritualjourney #spiritualawakening #stargazingyogi #havefaith #om

✨ I’ve been reflecting on how we can best roll with astrological vibes this month, and my best advice is to invest HEAVILY in self care. Here’s why: first of all, the Sun and Mercury in Virgo now bring additional focus to our personal healthcare routines, including our diet and how we manage stress. Second, the recent Mercury and Mars retrograde seasons left some of you mentally and emotionally fatigued (this energy ‘peaked’ on August 27th and is still in effect although gradually dissipating through until early October). The recent Full Moon in Pisces as well as oppositions between Virgo and Pisces energy this month can be draining and leave you feeling a lack of focus or a sense of being defeated. And now, with the Venus retrograde energies slowly becoming more prominent, we’re more susceptible to feeling lower self esteem and acting on those emotions by spending too much money, making risky investments, getting into unhealthy relationships or sabotaging existing relationships. Venus retrograde occurs about every 18 months and lasts for around 4 months, and for the next 4 weeks, we have an uncommon overlap between the retrogrades of both Mars (fading out) and Venus (fading in) - heavy stuff! So, we can RESPOND to these influences by spending time building emotional, physical and spiritual RESILIENCY - and this will also prepare you for the colder months coming up. Grounding and self care practices such as massage therapy, meditation, yoga, acupuncture (and others!) as well as proper diet and sleep habits really help you to replenish and rebuild immunity, and you can also replenish the mind through new learning experiences such as courses, workshops or travel. What can you do this month to invest in yourself? I’ll be sharing more insights about preparing for Venus Retrograde here this month! 🙏🏽Peace #venusretrograde #septemberhoroscope #marsretrograde #retrogradevibes #astrovibes #astrology #astrologyteacher #yogateacher #yogalifestyle #yogaforlife #spirituality #evolutionaryastrology #spiritualjourney #spiritualawakening #astrologyforbeginners #rollwithastrologyvibes #tunein #innerpeace #meditate #lifebalancing #health wellness #om

More retrogrades??&@$! What do they all mean? First Mars over the Spring and Summer, then Mercury in July/August and now Venus is coming into her retrograde season for the Fall, beginning Sept 3rd and continuing until Dec 18th. I talk about personal planet retrogrades a lot here, because they represent important astrological seasons that span a few months at a time. The personal planets are Mars, Venus and Mercury and their retrogrades influence us more noticeably than the outer planets, which is why I focus on them. Retrograde seasons are periods for reflection, growth and learning by embracing a new perspective and letting go of something you have been holding onto. Noticing issues that have come up (or resurfaced) over the past week in your work life, romantic relationships or your general feeling of self esteem point at what you’re being called to examine this fall. The frustrating news is that it’s likely that the issues which have come up for you will be recurring ‘themes’ you‘ll face again and again throughout the fall. For more info about retrogrades, check out my blog! I also offer private readings and an in-depth online class that works with you as you experience the Venus retrograde cycle. And of course, more tips and insights to come from me this month! 📷 Photo by NASA depicting a mars retrograde over a 5-month period, from our perspective here on earth 🌏🙏🏽 Peace #venusretrograde #retrogradevibes #astrovibes #astrology #yogateacher #astrologyteacher #nasa #marsretrograde #astrologyforbeginners #astrologicalseasons #astrologer #travelingastrologer #spirituality #evolution #evolutionaryastrology #spiritualjourney #spiritualawakening #conaciousliving #namaste #namastrology #outerspace #solarsystem #rollwithastrologyvibes #learnastrology #followastrology #stargazingyogi #peace #innerpeace #om

✨Lunar Astrology for this week! Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday morning, Moon in Libra - social, artistic & agreeable. A desire to do the right thing but watch out not to give away ‘too much’ for the sake of resolving a conflict quickly. Don’t mince words when expressing what’s really important to you. Wednesday afternoon, Thursday & Friday, Moon in Scorpio - obsessive, passionate, haunted by emotional wounds. With Venus in her pre-retrograde shadow also in Scorpio, this transit of the Moon can bring to light the emotional vulnerabilities that you’re being called to work through over the course of this fall season. Sensitivities can be high over these few days so give yourself time and space to process. Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday, Moon in Sagittarius - adventurous, optimistic & high energy. This energy is fun-loving and up for exciting new experiences. This energy is stimulated by learning and esoteric subjects in particular. Watch out for excess however as Sagittarius vibes often lose sight of ‘boundaries’. 📷 Photo taken looking out over Big Sur this weekend - we found a place to camp out just after sunset. No Moon, but I could still see Venus, and Jupiter here! See them?! 🙏🏽 Happy MOON Day and Peace! Have a great week! ❤️ #astrovibes #namaste #namastrology #lunarastrology #lunarenergy #moongoddess #travelingastrologer #yogateacher #astrologyteacher #moonvibes #amateurphotography #yogalifestyle #woke #consciousliving #astrology #astrologylover #mooninsagittarius #mooninlibra #mooninscorpio #venusretrograde #newmoon #california #innerpeace #tunein #yogaeverywhere #emotions #spiritualawakening #california #sunset #roadtrip
