My other half and I yap about our trials & tribulations through our illness of, Virgo.

In Episode 13 of CombustAstrology, we sit at the threshold between two eras: the end of Saturn in Pisces and the beginning of Saturn in Aries.

We reflect on what Saturn in Pisces demanded of us. Changing under uneasy pressure, emotional endurance which spiritually growing. A gruesome time of trying to of navigating Piscean fog. What did we avoid? What did we dissolve? What did we outgrow?

Then we turn toward Saturn in Aries and what it asks for now. Courage. Initiative. Ownership. Embodied leadership that is really a lot of slow STABLE growth.

I’m joined by Charlie, the newest reader at CasaShanti, who brings her Pisces stellium perspective as we also review Pisces season. We talk about the growth we've experienced, growing your spiritual gifts, platonic friendship dynamics, and what it really means to step into your ability without shrinking.

In this episode of CombustAstrology, I introduce The Catch-Up / 2026 a turning point episode about momentum, awakening, and what it means to finally move forward after years of suspension.

We explore the transition out of a Neptunian age(the fog, the sleep, the dissociation) and into a new dawn that asks for presence, commitment, and aliveness. Using the metaphor of last year’s Winter Arc, I reflect on how much of late 2025 asked us to slow down, reassess, and review.

Now, in 2026, we begin the true first quarter.

I break down what Jupiter and Leo bring in terms of confidence, visibility, and creative courage, and what the July basket formation may activate collectively. I briefly touch on Uranus in Gemini(with a deeper dive promised on another episode) before moving into an in-depth discussion of Saturn and Neptune in Aries, and how these two forces redefine leadership, belief, and responsibility going into the year ahead.

We close with reflections on the transiting North and South Nodes in Aquarius, a nod to Chiron in Taurus, and a grounded reminder to stay optimistic, embodied, and forward-facing as we step into what’s next.

This episode is about waking up, shaking off the spell, and choosing to participate fully in the future.
