Saturn Retrograde: Spiritual Insights, Karmic Consequences, and Uncompleted Pasts

In today’s segment, we explore Saturn Retrograde in the sidereal sign of Pisces, taking place from July 12th to November 27th/28th, 2025.Saturn is the planet of karma, consequence, hard work, and discipline. Pisces is watery, ethereal, spiritual, and deeply connected to the unseen realms. This transit stirs themes of the past, the subconscious, and spiritual reckoning.On a global scale, we may see heightened focus on water, oil, and gas industries, along with revelations or consequences linked to past actions. Saturn’s retrograde can bring unfinished business to the surface—both collective and personal. Mystics, hidden affairs, or spiritual institutions may also be brought into the public eye.On a personal level, Saturn’s retrograde offers a powerful opportunity to reconstruct daily routines, revisit unresolved karma, and realign with long-term goals. You may find yourself revisiting the past— to heal, conclude, and clarify.If confusion or uncertainty arises, do not panic: this is a time of gathering insight. The uncertainty is part of the process. As Saturn retraces its steps, it’s illuminating areas of life where deeper clarity is needed—so that we may move forward with greater wisdom and peace.We also dive into current global events and how they reflect this powerful astrological energy.DONATE: Austin Disaster Relief Network (ADRN)Austin Pet's AliveConvoy of HopeKerr County Flood Relief FundSalvation Army Southern New Mexico Community Foundation & Community Foundation of Lincoln CountyBeloved Asheville YOUTUBE:Mars + Ketuhttps://youtu.be/J_gnbbOmqe8D9 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

July is yet another month of intensity and confusion as Mars and Ketu near their exact conjunction degree, Saturn and Neptune retrograde at 7 degrees of Pisces, AND Mercury retrogrades. In todays segment, we explore how to use the energy of Mars and Ketu to better support our lives and avoid unnecessary conflict. This combination can be used for GOOD when approached appropriately. Saturn and Neptune go retrograde, bringing blurring lines to our boundaries and discernment. This is a time of turning inwards, reflecting, and tapping into the Guru within, as opposed to outsourcing all of our guidance. There is an essence of uncertainty for the collective, and we may experience it in our personal lives as well. Kala Sarpa will be broken later this month, releasing heat and allowing for necessary reprieve. Though this month is yet another month of intense energy, there IS a path forward that can be graceful, courageous, and clear. Learn more here.

This New Moon in Ardra calls for a reckoning. In this episode, we dive into the fierce and confronting energy of Ardra nakshatra—symbolizing storm, sorrow, and ultimate renewal. We explore how this period invites us to sever old energetic cords, release toxic attachments, and make space for divine reconstruction.Mercury transiting Cancer, our thoughts and communications become deeply emotional and intuitive—but not without consequence. In this watery sign, Mercury can lead to data slips and vulnerabilities in digital spaces. Security in the digital realm will become a point of prominence... not that it hasn't already!Venus entering Taurus is in it's own sign! However, with Venus and Uranus being so close in degrees in early July, there can be issues with the US involving enemies, debt, and friendships. Personally, some may experience a sudden meeting or revolutionary love. Others may experience some sudden turbulence that results in breakdown - an opportunity for depth and reconstruction.

Hi everyone! I know that we have discussed Saturn + Neptune on a few segments, but I thought this combination certainly deserved it's own deep dive. I've been witnessing individuals who are spiritually confused, longing, or uncertain. It seems that there is a pull away from "woo woo" spirituality, and a draw towards religions with more structure and regulations. (Has anyone else seen the rise in Christianity?) While I believe more people will be searching for meaning through things like astrology and tarot, I believe people are burning out on the "get rich quick" approach of some spiritual leaders. Saturn is rules, regulations, discipline, and consistency. Neptune is illusion, idealism, and dreaminess. These two planets joining forces will impact us all differently on a personal level... Some may be having "ah ha" moments, seeing a situation for what it is, or experience a crack in rose colored glasses. Others may be feeling confused, aimless, or stuck in a rut and unsure on how to move forward. Globally, we will see chaos and confusion with rules, structure, and government. Saturn is the government, after all. The truth will feel more elusive as accusations get thrown around. With so much confusion and uncertainty, this gives a beautiful opportunity to tap into Viveka, or discernment, the compass of the heart. Learn how to best navigate the energy of this transit here.

Hi everyone! Today we are discussing one of the heated moments of 2025... Though I suppose it seems we've had a lot of those this year. Covid, 9/11, the beginning of escalation between Israel and Palestine - Mars and Ketu were conjunct in every incident. Mars and Ketu are notorious for stirring controversy and bringing about dangerous accidents or attacks. From mountaineering accidents to sting ray tragedies - we see this combination again and again act as a catalyst. How can WE best move through this time with grace?In addition to Mars/Ketu, we will see Saturn and Neptune conjunct in the same degree. We have already seen a terrible oil spill off the coast of Kerala, let's hope that there is nothing else like this! We further discuss transits and what to anticipate.

In this segment, we discuss the main transits of June and how to best navigate them on a global and personal level... June is one of the most intense months of 2025 and it is important to understand the cosmic energy so that we can have more awareness and navigate with intelligence. This is a month where Mars is finally out of debilitation - offering energy, will power, and courage. However, with the addition of Ketu, we need to be mindful to avoid excessive risk and to use our energy wisely.

Hello everyone! I am traveling, didn't get a microphone in time, and thus... We have no new content this week! Which, as it turns out, is blessing in disguise! I published this podcast originally in 2022 and it's near and dear to my heart. Dr. Foss has inspired my work and my life in many ways (and continues to do so) and I am so grateful to share, again, his interview... In case you missed it (: _______________________________________________________This week we spend more time exploring relationship, compatibility, and synastry in Vedic Astrology - with one of my favorite teachers, Dr. Andrew Foss.As Dr. Foss mentions in the segment, life is complex! Therefore it only makes sense that astrology and synastry can be equally as complicated as we learn to decode the stars. Dr. Foss shares practical ways to utilize Vedic Astrology and spirituality that can help us better understand compatibility between charts and synergy between people. In our conversation, we also explore how to view and approach relationship in a way that promotes overall healing, understanding, and compassion in connection. Finally, we discuss karmic connections, Rahu, Ketu, and what "binds us" in love. Dr. Foss is the president of the British Association for Vedic Astrology as well at the author of Yoga of the Planets. Dr. Foss has also developed the software Jyotistar which is available at his website: https://www.vedicsoftware.comI am so endlessly grateful to Dr. Foss, his knowledge, his kindness, and his generosity that allowed time with us today. Dr. Foss: Website: https://www.vedicsoftware.comBook: https://www.yogaoftheplanets.comJyotistar: https://www.vedicsoftware.comHear horoscopes weekly on Patreon:patreon.com/astrologynowpodcastWork with Christine:[email protected]: astrologynow_podacstkeywords: 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, Dr. Andrew Foss
