🌠 Astrology forecast

Nov 11 | Honing in on your ability to connect with creation

Venus moves into Capricorn

You might feel imposter syndrome creeping in, but it’s the perfect time to work constructively on these more limiting thoughts. Even if you have a difficult time connecting to your sense of creativity, or your intuition, know that it's a sign to go deep, and get curious about where these blockages might be stemming from.

Once you’re able to work past these subconscious obstructions, the road on the other side will become crystal clear. Once Venus exits Capricorn, it’ll make sense why you had to start this journey in the first place. It’s creating room for more compassion, creativity, and yin energy to enter your constitution.

Be cautious of blaming others (especially your partner) for your lack of inspiration if you’re feeling detached from your creative spirit. You’re in the steering wheel during this transit. You’ll have moments of clarity around boundaries, intuition, and creative strategy. Some folks straight up need their partner to be just as expressive as they are, but others desire someone to ground them and complete them in opposite strengths. See where you fall and get curious about what creative expression looks like in all of its forms, and how you want to interject that sparkly into your everyday life and your partnership (whether current or future).

Really create some structure around your creative process, and make sure you’re doing it for yourself and no one else. If you feel the ping to immediately monetize it, take a moment and just let yourself enjoy the journey instead of rushing things. Iron out the kinks during Venus in Capricorn so when it gets to Aquarius, you can watch your endeavor flourish and get the spark you’ve been waiting for.

💡 Take this period to really tune into how you want to express yourself, and let it start a new chapter in your life entirely. There will be a clear before & after in your everyday life if you use this transit to your advantage. It’s the perfect launching point to catapult you into a new creative dimension.

Nov 15 | Feeling the ping to be softer with yourself

Taurus Full Moon

The window to your soul will feel exposed and raw. This isn’t the time to dive into deeply personal and intimate conversations, that is unless you’re emotionally connected to those around you. You might feel a push and pull toward being more present, but also taking time for yourself. Make sure you’re leaning into grounded practices and persistently checking in with your intuition. This full moon acts as a culmination of the previous new moon in Scorpio.

You were tested with themes of introspection during the last lunation, did you learn anything? Click here to refresh on the topics from the beginning of this lunar cycle. If you leaned into the uncomfortable and got busy with shadow work, odds are you’ll see the fruits of your labor come to fruition. If you chose to ignore the themes presented to you at the beginning of the month, this full moon might be a bit emotional and intense, making you come face to face with what needs to be worked on right now. It’s a huge ping to go inward and get to know yourself.

Lean into the aspect of water and let it be nourishing and calming, just make sure that you’re not causing any unnecessary waves or destruction along your path to peace. Waves are natural, but what you want to be mindful of is acting from a place of hurt or intended malice. Be intentional about your energy source today, and the few days following this full moon.

💡Are you operating from a place of compassion, grounded thinking, and emotional regulation — or are things a bit murky? How do you feel in your body, mind, and soul right now, and where can you make space for more comfort? It’s also important to make sure you’re not surrounded by any energy vampires, evaluate your friendships, and stand true to your boundaries.

💚 Weekly favs

Meal prep 🥑 With the colder months approaching, I’m focusing on immunity and warming my constitution! I recently added Earthforce Superfoods Earth Broth to my regimen. It’s too soon to see if it impacts how I feel, but it’s super tasty with some miso broth when I’m craving something savory and hot!

On repeat 🎵 Hear me out, Lady Gaga’s new song, Disease is a freakin’ bop — okay?! Some folks have “hot girl summer” but this is gearing me up for my “hot girl winter”.

Herb highlight 🌿 I’ve been leaning on CBD to help calm my nervous system in times of such dysregulation. I feel like I can speak for many of us that feelings of disconnection and stress are at an all-time high. This herb helps me calm down without feeling drowsy.

On my nightstand 📚 I’m in the midst of studying for my yoga teacher training (YTT200) and Teaching Yoga: Exploring the Teacher-Student Relationship by Donna Farhi has been instrumental in solidifying a teaching practice and leaning into this new role. I think this book is perfect for anyone teaching or providing services in the wellness space. It’s well thought out and provides a lot of room to grow as a teacher.

🧄 Harvest & Hearth

A gentle reminder to plant your garlic!

Before Hurricane Helene, we went shopping at the River Arts District Farmers Market and got some of the best garlic we’ve ever had! Since we knew autumn was around the corner, we decided to keep a head of it and plant it right after the first frost. We’re in zone 7A, and we already have some garlic sprouts!

It’s not too late to plant some garlic! Ellyse and I have a video on our homestead garlic sowing in the works, and it’ll be posted this week — so keep your eyes peeled!

Freeze dryer update

If you were around at the end of summer, you’d probably remember that we purchased a Harvest Right freeze dryer. It was also faulty when we got it, but customer service has been incredible in helping us troubleshoot it. In the past 2 weeks, we’ve freeze-dried home-grown cherry tomatoes, vegan & gluten-free homemade instant mashed potatoes, and plant-based chili using tomatoes from our garden. It’s getting shipped out this week for some minor repairs, and then we’ll be sharing lots more of our freeze-drying adventures.
