How do we move from endings to beginnings? In this episode, Jack Lyons and I explore the symbolic crossing from Aquarius to Pisces to Aries—where surrender becomes inspiration, and dissolution gives rise to action. With Neptune poised at the threshold, we ask: what are we sustaining… and what are we called to begin?

Join me for a special, light-hearted Valentine's Day episode of the Vedic Astrology Podcast. I’m delving into connections between Valentine's Day and Vedic Astrology. I’ll play with the Sun's position in the 11th sign and its significance in relationships, the rebellious nature of Aquarius and even the back-story of St. Valentine to explore various astrological and mythical links. I’m also going to examine the Vargas and the significance of the exact degree of the Sun on Valentine’s Day each year in relation to creativity and spiritual knowledge, and how these can inspire self-awareness and support striving for a higher connection. There’s even an interesting parallel drawn between Cupid and Kamadeva from Indian mythology. Tune in for this short and sweet zoom through some of the ways Vedic Astrology can enhance our understanding of love and relationships on this special day.

Join me for the final instalment of our Solar Transit series where we delve into the Rasi of Aquarius as the Sun enters this sign.

I’ll also discusses how the Sun's transit through Aquarius affects each ascendant, from Aries to Pisces, offering reflection questions for personal contemplation. I hope you’ll join me to gain a deeper understanding of Aquarius and tune in for the culmination of the year-long Solar Transit series.
