Stepping into a new week amidst a Mercury Retrograde, and many planets dancing through chaos and love. I have been reflecting on the ancient wisdom that often gets overshadowed, questioned, and doubted.
I’ve noticed a recurring theme lately; the disconnect people feel when it comes to understanding how astrology intersects with health and wellness. The questioning can be even stronger for those of us who’ve grown up in religious environments where such concepts might have been dismissed or misunderstood.
For me, astrology has been a profound guide on my health journey. It’s not about the stars and planets in some abstract sense - it’s about how these cosmic forces align with our physical bodies and souls’ intentions for this lifetime.
The ancient doctors knew this well. They would study a person’s astrological chart to gain insights into their current health, understanding different parts of the body correspond to specific astrological signs and planetary influences.
It can truly help us to see the whole, not just a symptom or one part.
In our Western world, there’s a tendency to break things down into parts, isolating symptoms and treating them without considering the bigger picture. But what if we started viewing our health as part of a grand design, where everything is connected - mind, body, spirit, and the cosmos?
This week, I invite you to explore this holistic perspective. if you encounter resistance, pay attention to which part of you is reactionary. Resistance often carries a message, and within those challenges, there are insights waiting to be discovered. Resistance is persistence!
If you’ve been dealing with a particular health issue, take a moment to consider it in the context of your astrological chart.
What does your chart say about the energies influencing you right now?
Are there specific planetary movements or aspects that could be impacting your health?
If you are open to this, here’s a simple exercise to help you connect with this idea and align with your bodies design:
Take a few minutes to think about any recent physical discomfort or health challenges you’ve been facing. Where in your body are these issues manifesting?
Look up your astrological chart or simply consider the current planetary transits. Are there any planets in position that might be influencing these areas of your body? For example, if you’re experiencing back pain, it might be linked to Saturn’s influence, which often corresponds with the skeletal system.
Spend a few minutes visualizing the energy of the corresponding planet flowing through the affected area of your body. Imagine this energy bringing balance and healing, aligning you more closely with your soul’s purpose and the design of your physical temple.
If this exploration resonates with you, I’m thrilled to share an opportunity to dive deeper.
I invite you to check out the Subtle Science Consortium and join me in Sedona, Arizona from September 26th to 29th 2025. We will be bridging modern medicine with ancient wisdom.
