Did you know we all share a set of major astrological transits that herald important life stages and transitions in our lives? This week, Jackie and Lane welcome author, astrologer, and life guide Stephanie Gailing (she/her) to the podcast to explore the concept of cycles in astrology. From the 28-day cycle of the moon, to the 248-year cycle we're completing in this election year with the United States' Pluto return, we examine how to use astrology for archetypal self-discovery, how to ground oneself during collective turmoil, and how to quell our astrological anxiety. Tune in for a grounding and inspiring conversation!
