My current astrology practice is a synthesis of 8+ years of professional coaching and Hellenistic astrology. I started my astrology journey studying archetypal astrology with a focus on psychology - including professional training programs for counseling astrology. I’ve found that the Hellenistic tradition has proven far more accurate and effective when working with astrological timing techniques, and I continue to blend my archetypal background into interpretations and client sessions. I feel this combination bridges deeper connections and embodied awareness to the planets and aspects interacting with us all in unique and complex ways. I look and listen to all planetary transits through a lens of “so astrology good”. Whether we subjectively feel them as helpful or difficult, I believe they are always serving an evolutionary purpose and opportunity for empowered participation.

The notes being played now will build in sound and symphony for the next decade.In this episode Sarah covers what this means for you personally — if you have anything in your natal chart between 3–5° of Gemini, Leo, Aries, or Aquarius, that's your instrument in this symphony and your specific assignment in the collective shift — plus all the week's major transits: Venus entering Virgo and conjuncting the South Node at 0° (releasing perfectionism and the never-good-enough), Venus squaring Uranus at 4° Gemini (a lightning bolt of new thinking), the Mercury retrograde inferior conjunction cazimi at 20° Cancer (a private audience with the sun just before the new moon), the Cancer New Moon at 21° on July 14th (the last new moon of the old Cancer era — commit to your new standard of self-care), and the first exact strike of the outer planet tuning fork: Uranus sextile Neptune at 4° on July 15th.Next week: a special guest tarot reader joins to reveal what the cards say about Jupiter, Pluto, Uranus & Neptune all striking this early-degree tuning fork in unison.

It's a two-part week. Over the weekend, Mars in Gemini activates a string of outer planet aspects — conjunct Uranus, sextile Neptune, trine Pluto — accelerating impulse, courage, and the push to finally take action on what's felt stuck. Then on Monday, the Sun in Cancer squares Saturn in Aries, followed by Neptune stationing retrograde on Tuesday — asking you to pull over, check your alignment, and separate illusion from genuine intuition before you keep accelerating. In this episode we cover: * Mars conjunct Uranus at 3° Gemini (Friday) — the first Mars-Uranus conjunction in Gemini since the last one in Taurus, July 2024 * Mars sextile Neptune at 4° Aries (Saturday, July 4th) — flow vs. force * Mars trine Pluto at 4° Aquarius (Sunday, July 5th) — collective mission vs. personal ego * Sun square Saturn at 14° Aries (Monday, July 6th) — the brake-check transit * Moon's third quarter phase in Aries (Tuesday, July 7th) — entering the editing/integration phase of the lunar cycle * Neptune stationing retrograde at 4° Aries (Tuesday, July 7th) — a 6-month invitation to discern illusion from intuition, retrograde until December 12, 2026 Whether you're navigating a sudden burst of courage, feeling torn between exhaustion and excitement, or sensing a threshold you can't quite name yet — this episode will help you understand exactly what's happening and how to work with it instead of against it.

The Wait Is Over—Buckle up: Capricorn Full Moon, Mercury Retrograde & Jupiter Into Leo 2026

The wait is over, and this week delivers. In this transit episode of Cozy with the Cosmos, Sarah Paasch breaks down the most shift-dense week of 2026 so far: the Capricorn full moon at 8° on June 29th, Mercury stationing retrograde at 26° Cancer, Jupiter's long-awaited ingress into Leo at the anaretic 29° of Cancer, and Mars entering Gemini to begin its conjunction with Uranus. Sarah covers the Mars-Jupiter sextile at the anaretic degree, the Grand Fire Trine activating Saturn, Neptune, and Venus in Leo, and what Saturn in Aries — in its fall — really means as the ruler of this full moon. Spoiler: it's a sobriety check, not a punishment. She also connects this full moon back to the Capricorn new moon stellium of January 18th 2026, showing how this moment has been building all year. Horoscopes for all 12 rising signs drop separately tomorrow — listen to this episode first to go deeper into your sign reading.
