Embrace the Grace
The energy of this month brings the opportunity to dig deep when seeking to overcome challenges that may arise, but also to remember that the challenge itself may very well be the message we need to receive, and leads us to grow in the direction we are meant to flow if we allow it. Therefore, have faith, practice radical surrender, embrace the grace and trust that even though things may be uncomfortable, everything is exactly as it needs to be ~ it is this attitude alone that can shift the experience of challenge from burden to grace.
August 2025 Astrological Insights
A Moon so bright as this one has much to reveal, much to resolve and much even more to remember. Shravana Nakshatra is represented by an ear and is all about listening to the unspoken messages in life… the way Nature, the Universe and Soul communicate .. not through words but through symbols & synchronicities. That’s the language of Spirit and that’s how we tune into the deeper layers of reality.
Retrogrades

Intense Gemini New Moon
The New Moon is the start of a new cycle of energy that runs a course over the two weeks following it. This particular New Moon finds three sattvic planets ~ Sun, Moon & Jupiter ~ conjunct within 1 degree of each other in Gemini, in Ardra Nakshatra (star). Ardra is a rather intense Nakshatra represented by a tear drop and a fierce form of Shiva known as Rudra. Ardra is associated with pain, but it is the kind of pain we must walk through in order to truly transform into new versions of ourselves.
