April Horoscope: Yama Yoga, Hanuman Jayanti, and Akshaya Tritiya

In today's segment, we explore the month of April and the major astrological events. This month is interesting due to having a YAMA YOGA, which don't occur very often. Our last Yama Yoga was in 2024 and our last Yama Yoga in Pisces was 1996! We explore how this combination is formed and what kind of events it can manifest. We also discuss Hanuman Jayanti, which will be marked by the full moon in Virgo coming up on April 1st. If you are unsure how to honor Lord Hanuman but would like to participate, you can find the Hanuman Chalisa here. We also dive into the unique Mercury in Pisces and Jupiter in Gemini parivartana, exploring how this exchange brings direct communication between Jupiter, the Guru, and Mercury, the student/messenger. This is profound time for learning and keeping an open mind. To ease Mercury, find an easy pranayama practice here. Additionally, we unpack Mars in Pisces, a softer and more compassionate expression of drive and motivation. This transit encourages intuitive action, creativity, emotional courage, and spiritual growth — while also asking us to be clear and direct with frustration and anger, instead of becoming passive aggressive or complacent.

Hi everyone! We spend some time catching up, new content begins around minute 5. In this segment, we start with Mercury direct, bringing a sense of relief after weeks of reflection since late February. What has resurfaced for you? What conversations, realizations, or patterns have come back around asking to be understood? As Mercury moves forward, clarity returns... and with it, the ability to integrate what we’ve learned.Venus moves through Gandanta degrees. This is an intense window where emotional cycles in love and relationships begin to unravel. Pisces represents completion, surrender, and forgiveness, while Aries initiates a new chapter of desire and direction. This transition can feel confusing or overwhelming, as illusions dissolve and truths come into focus—but it also opens the door to powerful rebirth.We also discuss Sun and Neptune conjunction in Pisces. This transit has the ability to dissolve the ego and soften the identities we’ve been clinging to... especially those shaped by external expectations. It can feel dreamy, psychic, and deeply spiritual… or confusing, foggy, and disorienting. This is a time to ask: Who am I beneath my roles, my thoughts, or my conditioning?We also cover Saturn and Sun conjunction and other astrological ongoings.

Hi everyone, today we discuss the major upcoming transits for the month of March. We continue our previous conversations with a recap of Rahu/Mars volatility, the dreaminess of an exalted Venus, and how the planets of Intellect AND Knowledge are both retrograde. With Jupiter's direct motion on March 10th, we will begin gaining some clarity and direction while a few of us will receive a unique and welcome gift from the Universe. We will experience even more relief come the end of March when Mercury also goes direct...

Hi everyone!In this segment, we explore the upcoming Lunar Eclipse in Leo in Pūrva Phalgunī — an asterism associated with love, romance, creativity, pleasure, and the sacred creative force that flows through us when we are still, present, and at rest.We discuss practical strategies to consciously connect with and utilize this energy:Prioritizing rest as a creative actSoftening into receptivity rather than controlHealing wounds or authority, visibility, and recognitionReclaiming sensuality as ours to experience Meanwhile, Venus shifts into its sign of exaltation in Pisces, heightening emotion and awakening a longing for “higher love.” Romance may feel fated, spiritual, transcendent. But with heightened sensitivity comes potential illusion.There may be:Idealization in loveRose-colored glassesConfusion or mixed signalsKarmic themes surfacing in intimacy and partnershipWith both Saturn and Neptune influencing the field, we explore the tension between devotion and delusion, fantasy and maturity. The invitation is not to reject romance — but to balance it. To enjoy beauty and mysticism while remaining grounded and discerning.With the Leo–Aquarius axis activated, this eclipse also speaks to:Inner authority vs. collective influenceAncestral patterns around visibility and leadershipInvesting in causes we genuinely care aboutImpact doesn’t have to be grandiose. It can look like:Small acts of generosityShowing up authenticallyChoosing integrity over applauseTune in to explore how this eclipse may manifest — and how to consciously work with its creative, romantic, and transformative potential.YOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

Hi everyone! In today's segment, we review cosmic energy and how to best navigate the shift of Mars in Aquarius. We also explore the upcoming Mercury Retrograde, the nakshatra it will retrograde in, and how this may impact us on an individual and collective level.

Today we discuss the upcoming solar eclipse on February 17th in the nakshatra of Dhanishta. We begin by doing a brief recap of some current affairs - we get into more personal astrology around the 9:45 mark with horoscopes coming at the end, per usual. This solar eclipse activates the Leo–Aquarius axis in a way that feels deeply personal and profoundly collective.Ketu in Leo indicates challenging celebrity worship, hierarchy, and the illusion of kingdoms and regimes. Who have we placed on pedestals? Where have we given our power away?Rahu in Aquarius brings a focus shift toward collective advancement - especially in health, innovation, and systems that serve humanity at large.We discuss:ReceptivityAbundanceWealth consciousnessMoney as energyShifting from being an audience to participant We break down horoscopes for all 12 signs while exploring the brilliance of Dhanishta - the nakshatra of radiance, rhythm, and remembering what makes us bright.YOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

Hi everyone! Our segment is a little less conventional today. There has been so much information coming out that it is challenging to keep up with, analyze, and consider! The Epstein files were recently released (though many still are not and much of this information is heavily redacted) and it has catalyzed a shift in collective conscious. Who are our leaders really? Who are they affiliated with? What secrets are our favorite celebrities harboring? This is a topic that I care about deeply! I hope you find the connections to astrology interesting.FOUNDATION COURSEhttps://www.innerknowing.yoga/vedic-astrology-foundational-courseYOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

In this episode, we dive into the upcoming eclipse season on the axis of Leo and Aquarius. This eclipse cycle amplifies power-to-the-people energy which can create a tension between individual sovereignty and the powers that be. There will be powerful movements but also continued clash between person and state.We explore the combustible conjunction of Mars and Rahu, a transit that brings intense heat, passion, and ambition, but also raises the potential for conflict, attacks, impulsive actions, and major blow-ups if energy isn’t consciously directed. Venus’s involvement with Rahu highlights karmic themes around love, desire, and attachments. Relational patterns may resurface demanding clarity or release.Later in the month, Mercury retrograde under these conditions is especially disruptive, increasing the likelihood of miscommunications, travel delays (at worst, major issues or accidents involving travel) tech issues, and messages going sideways. Stay abreast to cosmic matters by taking notes on your calendar throughout the segment.

On today's segment, we have a laid back conversation with Daniel about astrology, karma, and past life regression. When I met Daniel, we immediately clicked on metaphysics, time, alternate realities, death, and most importantly - child like humor. Periodically, we like to sit down and explore the cosmos in laid back and communal fashion. We hope you glean sparks of insight, inspiration, or feel a shift in perspective while listening to our banter.
