🌕 FULL MOON IN TA**US | OCTOBER 25
Coming Home to Yourself

What if the thing you’re holding onto for security is the very thing keeping you from growing?

This Sunday’s Full Moon in Ta**us brings our attention to the relationship between stability and transformation, asking us to look honestly at what we value, what we need, and what we may have outgrown.

Ta**us wants us to feel grounded in our bodies, secure in our lives, and connected to the things that bring us genuine pleasure. But with the Sun in Scorpio opposing the Moon, we’re also being invited to look beneath the surface at the attachments, fears, and familiar patterns that can make change feel threatening.

✨ And Pluto adds another layer.

The Full Moon forms a tense configuration with Pluto in Aquarius, bringing questions of power, control, freedom, and the structures we’ve built our lives around into focus.
Where are you holding on because something feels familiar, even though it no longer feels true?

Where have you confused being needed with being valued, or keeping the peace with being at peace?

With Venus retrograde asking us to reconsider our relationships and self-worth, this is an opportunity to get honest about what we truly desire and whether the life we’re creating reflects who we’re becoming.

You don’t have to dismantle everything or have all the answers. Sometimes the most meaningful transformation begins when you stop trying to convince yourself that something still fits.

🌿 Your Full Moon practice: Take a little time to slow down, reconnect with your body, and ask yourself what genuine security means to you now. Not the security that comes from controlling every outcome, but the kind that comes from trusting yourself to navigate whatever changes.

You can honor the life you’ve built without requiring it to define the life you build next.

Over the last few years, during my celibate era, I have become fascinated by many things but mostly, by or***ms.

And honestly, I think we’ve been having far too small a conversation about them. 🔥

What if or***ms are about so much more than sexual pleasure? What if understanding what happens in our brains and bodies during or**sm could change the way we think about women’s creativity, and well-being?

💥It’s so f¥€king powerful ladies!!!💥 we have been fed watered down, incorrect information so listen up!

At the 11:11 Summit, I’ll be talking about Or****ic Intelligence and the fascinating neuroscience behind our capacity for pleasure.

We will explore what happens in the brain during or**sm, how the neurochemistry of pleasure may relate to our creativity and emotional well-being, and why our relationship with pleasure deserves to remain part of the conversation long into midlife and beyond.

Somewhere along the way, many women learned to prioritize everyone else while their own pleasure became an afterthought. I think it’s time we started asking different questions about what it means to feel good in our bodies.

During my session, I’ll also guide you through my 11:11 Aliveness Activation and share a free gift to help you continue exploring this work.

Join me on November 11 for a conversation that I believe every woman deserves to hear.

✨ Register for FREE, or upgrade for just $111 to receive over $1,000 in programming and resources from our incredible speakers.
Because our relationship with pleasure deserves more than a passing conversation. It deserves our curiosity.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what makes someone a “good” yoga teacher, especially with so much conversation happening right now around certifications and credentials.

After decades of teaching, I know that completing a training is an important milestone. But the certificate itself doesn’t tell the whole story. It doesn’t capture the hours we’ve spent teaching, the mistakes we’ve learned from, the questions we’ve wrestled with, or the ways our understanding of the practice continues to evolve.

For me, being a good teacher means remaining a forever student. It means being willing to revisit what we think we know, keep refining our skills, and stay curious about what else is possible.

This is one of the reasons I created the 300-hour Embodied Yoga Method. I wanted to create space for that continued exploration, where we can deepen our understanding of yoga, grow in our teaching, and learn alongside others who are just as committed to the practice.

✨ THE COURAGE TO CHANGE WHAT NO LONGER FITS

Your astrology forecast | October 18–25
What if the discomfort you’re feeling isn’t a sign that something is wrong, but an invitation to acknowledge that you’ve outgrown something?

This week, the astrology invites us to look honestly at our relationships, our desires, and the parts of ourselves we’ve been keeping quiet to maintain the peace.

❤️ Venus square Pluto brings deeper relationship dynamics to the surface, asking us to look at where fear, attachment, or the need for control might be influencing how we love.

♏ The Sun enters Scorpio on October 23, beginning a season of emotional depth, transformation, and truth. It’s an invitation to stop focusing on how things appear and start asking yourself how they actually feel.

🔄 Mercury stations retrograde in Scorpio on October 24, encouraging us to revisit conversations, reconsider assumptions, and pay attention to what we may have overlooked.

⚖️ Venus retrogrades back into Libra on October 25, bringing our attention back to reciprocity, balance, and the relationships that allow us to be fully ourselves.

The deeper theme running through this week is learning the difference between keeping the peace and abandoning yourself to maintain it.

Where are you holding on because something is familiar, even though it no longer reflects who you’re becoming? And what might change if you trusted yourself enough to acknowledge what you really want?

You don’t have to figure everything out this week. Sometimes the most powerful transformation begins with being willing to tell yourself the truth.

✨ Want to explore this week’s astrology more deeply?
