What to do when life feels crazy and out of your control
Anytime I have one of those meltdown moments where I feel like my life is crumbling and everything’s falling apart, I’ve been able to take solace —and regain my sanity 😅—after looking to the stars for the answers about what’s really going on in my birth chart.
And let me tell you, your astrology chart ALWAYS holds the answers!
Understanding current astrology transits affecting my natal chart have explained my highest and lowest moments in life and given these experiences context and deeper, positive meaning.
...From really terrible, heartbreaking moments like when family disowned me for choosing a shamanic spiritual path, to my soul-shattering divorce, or even rough days when I feel like all my plans of progress are thwarted—there’s usually a really good astrological explanation for what’s going on, even if I didn't think there would be. It's all in knowing how to look.
I’d been getting strong intuitive hits and repeating dream messages where my guides handed me divorce papers night after night. Each night for weeks they told me the next step on my path was to break toxic ancestral patterns by asking my husband to consciously decouple—all to heal ancient ancestral wounds beyond our time, each in our respective lineages. I knew for months we had come to this line in the sand, but I didn’t want to do it. I was too in love and committed to making it work, even when nothing was working. I reached out to an astrologer for advice before I brought up the difficult divorce conversation at home.
She broke down several aspects in my chart that had been railed with tough transits since 2019. The same aspects that activated the pandemic with Pluto, Saturn, and Jupiter put pressure on the world were also activating huge points of loss, old family wounds, and south node karma in my personal chart. She took one look at all the squares (challenging aspects) happening in my natal chart compared with the transiting planets showing me where the universe was pressuring me to break me out of old karmic patterns holding me back from my life path and how it was breaking down my home life and long term relationships to help me realize a new path.
It wasn’t happening to me, it was happening FOR me. (The thing we always know but forget when we’re in life’s hot seat).
She said the next window of opportunity where my planets would get pressurized like that wouldn’t happen for another 32 years and that if I didn’t take that window to leave my unhealthy marriage, I wouldn’t have another breakaway chance until I was in my late 60’s.
If I didn't let the marriage go now, I'd lose my window to skyrocket into my soul's path which she showed me in my north node that was also getting activated. If I didn't leave I'd also be repeating a heartbreaking pattern I watched my mother and father play out. He and I had so much karma between our charts, so many ancestral wounds we each activated in one another's charts.
The astrologer explained how important it was to come together to do this ancestral work and then let it springboard me into alignment with my soul's path which was currently—and uncomfortably—being activated.
I couldn’t take both my karmic relationship and my life’s work with me. And she was right on the money. She could see where I was suffering. She could see how the threads of my home life stability were being ripped to shreds to get me to ascend into the next chapter of life through uncomfortable losses.
⭐️The point is, she could see what was playing out in my life, playing out in my natal chart!⭐️
Astrology has been one of my favorite tools to guide me through difficult-to-navigate times in life. I understand when to rest, reflect and heal, and when to take chances, take a stand and get things moving again. It’s been a guiding light through even some of the toughest moments when I couldn’t understand what was happening and why.
All things move in cycles, like the planets, the rotation of the earth, and the stars around us. If we know how to tap into those cycles, we learn to go with the flow of life’s current, instead of fighting against it. Instead, we can use it to get ahead and to understand more about our strengths, weaknesses, and deeper purpose in each season.
⭐️Astrology has always been one of my favorite studies and has changed the way I navigate life so I’m offering a 4-hour Shamanic Astrology Basics Class to help you understand the signs, symbols, and meaning of the planets so you can understand your purpose here on earth—by understanding what’s going on in your natal chart!
