New Moon in Ardra Nakshatra (25 June 2025)

New Moon in Ardra Nakshatra 25 June 2025 The upcoming New Moon in Ardra Nashatra will be quite a unique stellar event, with not only Moon and Sun tightly conjuct in the star of cosmic Rudra, but also Jupiter joining them in the same degree. Thus on that day Sun will be combusting, or symbolically refining within its fiery rays two planets, Jupiter and Moon. This intimate conjunction will additionally happen in the amsha of Goddess Sati in the D20 chart (Vimshamsha chart of spiritual progress), the Goddess who self-immolated herself, which will remind us of the meaning of sacrifice and the need of transformation in our lives. This deeply transformational fortnight will be ideal for any purification practices during this fortnight. It is, however, also an indicator that with Jupiter combust in Ardra our judgement might be clouded at times and we might like to avoid any impulsive decisions in this period. ★ Support this podcast ★ [https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/achalagovindadas]

Rahu & Ketu transit through Aquarius and Leo (29 May 2025 - 25 October 2026)

Rahu & Ketu transit through Aquarius and Leo 29 May 2025 - 25 October 2026 Just a few days back Rahu & Ketu changed their signs, moving into sidereal Aquarius (Rahu) and sidereal Leo (Ketu), which symbolically represent zodiacal root chakra (Aquarius) and zodiacal third eye chakra (Leo). This 18-months transit will be calling all of us to align our vision with reality, and follow our dreams with courage. Rahu in sidereal Aquarius will be inspiring us to push beyond the boundaries of what’s conventional and expected and embrace the innovation while staying aligned with our purpose. It will be also a powerful time for larger communities to rethink their values, joins hands in their efforts and become more inclusive. We may expect many reforms and even revolutions, both on inner and outer level, as this transit will be calling both individuals and larger communities to manifest more integrity. ★ Support this podcast ★ [https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/achalagovindadas]

Full Moon in Jyeshta Nakshatra (11/12 June 2025)

Full Moon in Jyeshta Nakshatra 10-11 June 2025 Every year when Moon is about to get full in its debilitation place, sidereal Scorpio, emotions are stirred and churned from deep within us, so that we may face our shadows and grow beyond them. This year, in particular, Full Moon in Jyeshta Nakshatra will be additionally aspected by Mars (losely conjuct with Ketu, who will be already in Leo), which may add to the intensity. It’s a fortnight during which we all may feel a bit more easy to trigger than usual and more prone to irritation or anger. Sun and Moon will be both dwelling in the amshas of Goddess Bhairavi in D20 chart (vimshamsha chart of spiritual progress) during the climax of the Full Moon. Bhairavi is the Goddess of fearlessness, who will keep inspiring us during this fortnight to transcend our fears and find courage to move past our limitations.

New Moon in Rohini Nakshatra (26/27 May 2025)

New Moon in Rohini Nakshatra 26-27 May 2025 The next conjunction between Sun and Moon will occur in the heart of sidereal Taurus, where Moon becomes exalted while Sun starves (kshudhita avastha). During this entire dark fortnight (Krishna paksha) Venus, another planet of water element, will remain exalted, while Mars, another planet of fire element, will remain debilitated. With both fiery planets starving during this dark fortnight and both watery grahas in exaltation during the New Moon day, we may feel generally more tired and less energised - but at the same time we will have greater access to our feminine, intuitive energy and thus will have a chance to heal some deep emotions. It’s a powerful time to “rest and digest�. ★ Support this podcast ★ [https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/achalagovindadas]

Full Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra (12 May 2025)

Full Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra 12 May 2025 The upcoming Full Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra will be the first one since many months that won’t bring so intense energies with itself. However, as Moon will be experiencing isolated state (kemadruma yoga), preceded only by Ketu in 12th house from it and aspected by debilitated Mars, we all may have increased tendency in this period to isolate and withdraw. The energy of debilitated Mars, however, may still make us quite hyper vigilant and overuse our “what’s wrong� attention. Simultaneously, Full Moon shining in Vishakha, will be calling us to listen to that intuitive voice within and move beyond past experiences and limitations, or at least begin the process of reintegrating them. With dispositor Full Moon (Venus) exalted in Pisces we will have greater access to the source of inspiration and intuition within. ★ Support this podcast ★ [https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/achalagovindadas]
