In this episode, Kelly explores Venus retrograde in Scorpio’s powerful invitation to pause, release, and make space for renewal as Venus approaches the Sun and disappears from view. Drawing on the New Moon in Libra, she explains why mid-October is less about launching new plans and more about closure, reflection, decluttering, and letting go of outdated desires, commitments, and relationship patterns. Kelly also links Venus’ retrograde to her recent plane travel, the remake of the movie ‘A Star is Born’ as well as Venus’ last retrograde cycle in Scorpio. Watch the full episode to find out how!

This Lunar Eclipse in Pisces happens on August 27/28. It closes down the cycle of eclipses through Pisces that began in 2024. It calls you to review the dreams that might have inspired you over the past two years to determine whether they still hold true as you move forward. This is a good time to acknowledge the end of a chapter then review and reset the topics of the Pisces part of our chart.  Jupiter rules this eclipse in Pisces so don’t be surprised by a heightened sense of emotional awareness, compassion, or forgiveness. Pisces is boundless, therefore exploration outside our typical limits is always possible. Uranus also influences this eclipse. Listen to the full episode for all the details.   Kelly has a series of in-person event coming up in the near future.  UAC (United Astrology Conference) is happening in early September. Kelly is teaching a post-conference workshop on Zodiacal Releasing. Although in-person tickets are sold out, there are still a few online tickets available.

This 90-minute webinar will explore the five-point star movement of Venus in the sky and the themes of Venus as she retrogrades through Scorpio and Libra. Click here to register: https://www.kellysastrology.com/product/venus-retrograde-in-scorpio/ This New Moon Eclipse in Leo takes place on August 12/13. The Sun is both the eclipsed planet AND the eclipse’s ruler, which adds even more intensity and potency. The Sun collectively represents people of great and visible power, esteem and influence. This solar eclipse, which blocks the light of the Sun, often brings a loss of prestige and power to a ‘solar figure’.    Personally, this eclipse invites you to step into the darkness and use your intuition and non-sighted senses to explore the shadows. It prompts you to look beneath the surface to see what is uncovered. This eclipse calls you towards the unknown, especially in those areas that are connected to the Leo part of your chart and life. Tune it to the entire episode for all the details.

This episode features an insightful dialogue between Kelly and her guest, astrologer and long-time friend Alicia Yusuf. Together, they explore malefics in general and then Saturn in Aries in particular.  To find out more about Alicia and her work with astrology and trauma counselling, visit her website at  aliciayusuf.com and subscribe to her newsletter.  To go deeper into today topics, check out Kelly’s webinar ‘Conditions of Maltreatment’ or ‘Working with Planets in Fall’. The links are below: Conditions of Maltreatment: https://www.kellysastrology.com/product/conditions-of-maltreatment/ Working with Planets in Fall: https://www.kellysastrology.com/product/planets-in-fall/ Kelly and Alicia discuss Saturn as the great teacher of cosmic truths and honours the planet as it teaches us perseverance and patience. Saturn also brings us clarity and a willingness to engage in things as they are. Saturn’s placement in Aries is confronting, pitting the slow and methodical Saturn against the quick and action-oriented Aries. They discuss this using several charts as examples. (The charts show up briefly on the screen at the start of each chart discussion.) Watch the full episode to get all the details.

Kelly talks with medical astrologer and naturopath Kira Sutherland about the joys of the planets, with a focus on the 6th and 12th houses and the joys of Mars and Saturn.Kelly and Kira talk about how benefic and malefic planets link to ideas of good or difficult fortune, and how recent translations of ancient texts have added many new layers to contemporary astrological practice. And they dig into the sixth and twelfth houses from a health perspective, describing the sixth as the place of acute illness and hard work on health, and the twelfth as chronic conditions, confinement, and convalescence.For more on Kira's work with health and medical astrology, check out her website:https://www.astrologyofhealth.com/For Kelly's teaching on the Joys of the Planets and the 12 Houses, pop over tohttps://www.kellysastrology.com/product/planetary-joys-and-the-houses/

Kelly's next live webinar, More or Less? Navigating Jupiter and the South Node in Leo, is happening Saturday, June 20 at 12pm Eastern. It explores how to work intentionally with this unusual and paradoxical pairing over the next 12 months. Without preparation, this combination can scatter your energy, but, approached with intention, it opens real doors for realignment. Click the link to register: https://www.kellysastrology.com/product/navigating-jupiter/ This episode explores the tension at the heart of the full Moon in Capricorn, a symbolic tug-of-war between emotional fullness and real-world practicality. The  Moon in Capricorn sits in the sign of her detriment, which can create a sense of instability as your emotional self bumps up against your responsible, grounded side. But Capricorn's Saturnian energy also brings a reality check that, if you lean into it, can help you access a wiser and more mature perspective.

In this episode, Kelly is joined by Sarah, a member of her team, for a thorough conversation about sign oppositions. They explore opposing signs as a learning and teaching tool.
