This episode explores Capricorn as the archetype of devotion, responsibility, and sacred stewardship. Capricorn season teaches us how to tend what matters slowly and steadily, especially when there is no immediate reward or visible progress.As the Sun enters Capricorn on December 21, followed by Venus entering Capricorn on December 24, we are asked to examine our relationship to commitment, integrity, and long-term values. This is a season of vows rather than resolutions, of choosing what we will carry forward with care into the next chapter.In this episode, Ali explores:The Winter Solstice as a spiritual and energetic thresholdYule as the archetype of faith without evidenceCapricorn as the keeper of time, structure, and sacred responsibilityThe difference between devotion and urgencyWhat it means to close 2025 with intention rather than forceHow Venus in Capricorn reframes love as loyalty, presence, and embodied commitmentTHANK YOU for being here.LUME red light therapy box for $260 offPound Jewelry use the code ALI20 for 20% offKamana Coffee Replacement use the code ALIO15 for 15% offEarth Archive's Rainforest Serum - use the code ALIOFSTEDAL for 11% offUse the code "PODCAST" for 10% off an astrocartography or astrology session with me.Catori Life jewelryThank for you being here.Your presence means the world.

A liminal, late-degree New Moon arriving just off the Galactic Center and carrying a strong sense of culmination, reorientation, and truth.Sagittarius governs meaning, ethics, and the stories we live by, and at this degree, those stories are being tested.Ali explores how this New Moon marks a turning point in personal and collective belief systems, inviting the release of inherited philosophies, outdated moral frameworks, and identities built on certainty rather than truth. This lunation prepares the ground for the Winter Solstice, asking us to move slowly, listen deeply, and orient toward what is quietly but undeniably true.In this episode:New Moon in Sagittarius at 28 degreesProximity to the Galactic Center and its meaningVenus conjunct the New Moon: values, relationships, and integrityMars newly in Capricorn: commitment, discipline, and embodimentSquares to Saturn and Neptune: disillusionment, clarity, and spiritual accountabilityReleasing outdated belief systems and false orientationPreparing for the Winter Solstice thresholdTHANK YOU for being here.LUME red light therapy box for $260 offPound Jewelry use the code ALI20 for 20% offKamana Coffee Replacement use the code ALIO15 for 15% offEarth Archive's Rainforest Serum - use the code ALIOFSTEDAL for 11% offUse the code "PODCAST" for 10% off an astrocartography or astrology session with me.Catori Life jewelryThank for you being here.Your presence means the world.
