The Rachel Lang Show

Something is shifting—can you feel it? A pull, a ripple, a quiet inner knowing that something big is on the horizon. But what kind of change? And are you ready for it? March 2025 isn’t just another month—it’s a cosmic inflection point. With two eclipses, two personal planet retrogrades, and Neptune shifting signs, the energy is intense, emotional, and transformational. In this episode of The Rachel Lang Show, Rachel unpacks all the astro-details you need to navigate it with clarity and grace. Rachel breaks down what Mercury and Venus retrogrades really mean—beyond the internet myths and Mercury memes. She explores how Mercury retrograde in Aries and Pisces is stirring up communication mishaps, tech glitches, and deep internal realizations. Meanwhile, Venus retrograde is pulling us inward, asking big questions about relationships, finances, and self-worth. She also explains how both retrogrades are connecting with Neptune just before it moves into Aries—amplifying intuition, dreams, and the need to surrender control. Plus, Rachel shares how these transits are likely to affect each sign, so you can personalize your own spiritual and emotional navigation. This isn’t just about astrology—it’s about how you show up during moments of uncertainty. Rachel offers grounded, compassionate guidance for tuning into your intuition, setting clear boundaries, and choosing courage over comfort. You’ll also hear why the March 29 eclipse is a major energetic reset, and how to prepare for it—especially if you’re feeling like the universe hit “pause” on your plans. If you’ve felt stuck, off-track, or just a little more emotional lately, this episode will help you make sense of it all—and remind you that you’re not alone. Plus, Rachel shares details about her upcoming Sedona retreat, where you can go even deeper into your spiritual healing journey.

When you start taking care of your body and your health, then your mental health and your energy level for making the most out of life also gets amplified.” – Rachel * [00:39:28] “  I am a timeless human being, a soul.
