The Astrology of 2026: Unexpected Liberation with Colin Bedell

Preview

Happy 2026, everyone! Hope you all had a good break. I spent most of my time off watching Heated Rivalry, reading Heated Rivalry, rewatching Heated Rivalry, thinking about Heated Rivalry. Oh—and I also saw Marty Supreme and spent time with my cousin and her girlfriend who came to visit from Ohio. 

I think this is the first time I’ve ever started off the year without writing down a single goal or manifestation list. I typically do it on New Year’s Eve, and I did journal a bit that night, but as I was thinking about what I may want to manifest, it hit me that there was nothing happening astrologically that really supports the concept of a new year or a fresh start. The new year technically starts with Aries season and the spring equinox—plus, we all have a personal new year, our birthdays, and mine is just two months away. 

So, I decided that I wasn’t going to do it—it didn’t feel right for me. We have a New Moon in Capricorn coming on January 18th, so that timing is much more supportive for manifesting and making plans for the year ahead. So, if you haven’t perfected your vision boards and goals for 2026, you’ve still got time. 

I do love kicking off the year with a deep dive into the major transits of the year, though, and I’m honored to have Colin Bedell, aka Queer Cosmos, to lead the way. I feel like Colin just gets me, maybe because we both have a Capricorn moon, and I love the historical and philosophical context he always brings to astrology, whether it’s personal readings or his online content. 

He’s been studying astrology for over two decades, and I’ve never had more respect for him as an astrologer than when he shared a video in November about stepping back from astrology over the past few years. He spoke candidly about how he’s seen astrology misused online—through fear-mongering and attempts to turn it into a tool for control—when in reality, as Colin puts it, astrology is a tool to help us contextualize uncertainty.

As astrology has become more popular online, we see astrology content racking up millions of views, and so much of it is anxiety-inducing. Many astrologers frame every eclipse, every full moon, and every major transit as if it’s going to cause some radical, life-upending change. In my twenties, I genuinely assumed everything was going to fall apart every time Mercury went retrograde. It’s given me anxiety on countless occasions, pushed me to step back from this type of content, and I see the same fear show up in friends and in the DMs I receive from followers. I never get that feeling from Colin’s work, though (or from any of the other astrologers I’ve invited as guests). Instead, his work always leaves me feeling inspired, because he focuses on how astrology can help us deepen our connection to ourselves and to one another.

Yes, astrology can be used for prediction—but at the end of the day, we don’t actually know how a transit will express itself in our lives until we are living it. In our conversation, Colin breaks down the major vibe shift arriving in 2026 that kicks off next month, along with the upcoming Jupiter transit, eclipses, and retrogrades shaping the year ahead.

Hi Colin. Welcome to FWD JOY.

Colin Bedell: Thank you, Chrissy. It's an honor to be here. Thank you for inviting me.

Let's take it back to the very beginning. What were you like as a child?

Colin: Don't make me cry, Pisces, two minutes in because I just decided to frame a childhood picture of me, and I'm just in that inner child feeling. To be very honest with you, it's exactly who you're talking to now. I wasn't taking anything too seriously. I talked way too much. Constantly into metaphysics and spirituality from the beginning. Also, just deeply invested in the well-being of my loved ones. I have Mars in Cancer, so I deeply engaged with my aunts, uncles, cousins, neighbors, my twin sister, my brother. Not a lot has changed.

How did you decide to start studying astrology? Because I loved it too, but the monthly horoscopes in the back of Seventeen Magazine were enough for me. I never really investigated it further until my twenties.

Colin: I started because of my mother. She always loved astrology. There's this incredible picture of her in my grandmother's house, which was her childhood room at the time. She's about 11, and there's this glow-in-the-dark poster of the zodiac sign, Cancer, behind her. I've actually been working in that room a lot while I've been nomading. So it's just weird that she had that poster there, and then 45 years later, her son would be doing it professionally.

Ancestral power, right? So I would say it started with her because she just had it in our family vocabulary. She didn't know about the moon or the rising sign. She just knew sun sign astrology primarily. My twin sister just found the very first chart I ever printed on astrology.com in 2001. Truthfully, I had no intention of doing this professionally. It never dawned on me. Even in my mid to late 20s, when I was seeing astrologists work on the internet, when I started to become friends with some who I admired, and still do to this day, it didn't even cross my mind until one of my friends, Ophir Adut, one half of the Astro Twins, said, "You really need to stop doing this for free." At the time, I was a master's degree student at Parsons.

What were you studying?

Colin: Fashion. So I had my MA in fashion studies. One of the best decisions I ever made in my life. Then I had to get a job. So I started working as a waiter, then got hired there from a different company where I was waiting their table. And then they hired me to do textiles, and they then laid me off, seven months later. It worked out for the better, though, because two weeks prior, I just put out a website called queercosmos.com with the help of my best friend. Here we are—I think it's been almost nine years now.

You posted a video this week about how you took a step back from astrology these last few years. The way astrology has exploded since 2018 has been really wild to watch, because astrology's always been on the fringe. It still kind of is in a sense because there are so many people who are like, "Oh, you believe in that? Oh, do you really think it's real?" Have we ever heard of anyone who has studied astrology and said, "Oh, this isn't real." No. I always say it's either you know it or you don't.

Colin: Oh, I love it. Don't critique what you don't know, baby boy. Literally.

But what is happening on social media right now with astrology, I think, is really scary. Every time I have an astrologer on here, I always ask, what do you think about all the fear-mongering that happens around astrology? I love that you said astrology is supposed to be “a tool to contextualize uncertainty,” but now, because there's so much uncertainty, people are using it as a tool for control.

Colin: Absolutely. Well, thank you for watching and for listening with an open mind and an open heart, because I know you love the craft deeply as well. I just look at it from, all behavior makes sense in context—and the context is the world is feeling completely out of control.

So, the behavior is then, how do we, to the best of our capability, control uncertainty and that way regain a sense of effectiveness? I did see that reach a critical point right around 2021, especially 2024, with the election cycle, which always kicks things up into overdrive. Mitch Horowitz, a cult historian of the United States, discusses that in moments of collective crisis and collective uncertainty, you can track increased consumption in the metaphysical arts. I had to take a step back in 2023 because, yes, I did see fear-mongering, but there's something more insidious under here. I had to start to get curious about, what is astrology being used for now? How do I remember it, and what do we need to do about it going forward? Thankfully, I was in an artist residency, which gave me the container to explore that. And implicit in the program is the fact that astrology is an art.

It is also a tool. It depends on how the practitioner wants to leverage it, but it's an art form, and art uses metaphor and symbol. It's not so certain. I was just getting increasingly devastated because, as I just described, astrology is deeply personal to me. When I was watching it getting twisted and turned into this vehicle to flatten life force, to collapse courage, to make the uncontrollable controllable, I just said, "This has got to fucking stop.” 

Additionally, when we make or attempt to make the uncontrollable, controllable, Hartmut Rosa, the German sociologist whom I cited in the video, argues that we unleash Frankensteins of uncontrollability

I also think a huge problem is that people saw astrology as a path to social media success.

Colin: Oh, yes. And what I learned in the comments, therapists said the same thing. Anybody involved in spirituality and personal development was remarking on the same thing. Whatever we can do to collapse uncertainty and say, Hey, look, I'm right. That's going to accelerate my path. So it's the collective problem. Astrology is just one of many industries that have been besieged by this trend. It's just like whatever we can do to alleviate your anxiety, by, again, trying to control the uncontrollable, we'll do it.

Overall, the goal for all of us should be to increase our tolerance for uncertainty.

Colin: Exactly. I'm sure people theoretically watched my video and said, "Well, then what do I use astrology for? " To contextualize the uncertainty and make other people's tolerance level with it bearable, resource them with their strengths, with their ancestral memory. There's so much we can do that is not prediction.

All right, 2026. What’s your overall outlook?

Colin: Let's do it. I want to start really big and then zoom in.

First, there was this incredible documentary that I watched on the year that I was born, called 1989 The Year That Made The Modern World on National Geographic. It alleges that so many moments that year actually set the tone for modernity as we experience it. I think a lot of what it said still rings true. It used the example of Donald Trump taking out the full-page ad in the New York Times that said, "Bring back the death penalty for the Central Park Five." That was also the same year that we saw this convergence of sensationalism and gossip-based journalism in mainstream news media. You probably know, as a journalist, that was not the case before the early to mid '80s. That's the new algorithm. They used this line, "If it bleeds, it leads." Meaning: start with the scary stuff to hold the viewer's attention. I mean, this has not changed profoundly. The Fall of the Berlin Wall. The Game Boy was invented, which they say came to be the prototype for the iPhone. Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing. I think three Black members of Congress were elected that year. There was so much happening there. And what will happen in 2026 rhymes with what I just said from 1989. 

So it's a Saturn Neptune Conjunction, and it's going to take shape precisely on February 20th. There were three in 1989. What this British journalist, who was actually in Berlin the night the Berlin Wall fell, she said, “1989 was the year that I believed in the joy of unexpected liberation.” That is what I think 2026 will give us a sense of. The joy of unexpected liberation.

And maybe it will be the freedom from certain capacities, what I just described, this incredibly angry algorithm, or distance from propaganda on the news, and just our own low tolerance for why do I stay hooked when there's gossip and shame? 

So, Saturn conjunct Neptune happening February 20th, that is your number one transit.

Colin: Bread and butter. I've been thinking about it for almost two years now. Quickly, for folks who are like, what the hell? Saturn is the planet of construction. Neptune is the planet of deconstruction. And they will be interacting for the first time at the very first degree of Aries in recorded history.

My Mercury is one degree Aries.

Colin: Oh, then you will have a story for me probably right around your birthday, and my toes are curling. I can't wait to hear it. So, Saturn and Neptune are forming at zero degrees Aries, which is called the world axis point. And because it's deconstructing and reconstructing in the Aries-ruled domain of the military-industrial complex, power over dynamics and violence. But Neptune wants peace, and Saturn wants a strategy around it. So we're thinking of a serious strategy for peace in a real collective crisis. Not to say, certain people don't have the right to violently protest, but there is this energy around, okay, let's reframe it. I'm thinking, it's going to inspire people to take a stand for their life force when there are so many systems that would rather them be just dead, right?

I'm thinking of Audre Lorde's Uses of the Erotic, Esther Perel, to take a stand for life force is absolutely critical. Again, does astrology always do that? No. Or how it's positioned now? But these transits are helping people understand who do I have to be to be fully alive? What do I have to do? What do I need to have? Gianpiero Petriglieri, an organizational psychologist at INSEAD, says that aliveness is a function of safety and freedom. People feel fully alive when they're kept safe and set free.

And that's not really the vibe that this country is working with right now.

Colin: No, no. That's why it's interesting, because like you said, the vibe the country is working with is still hearkening back to what started in 2011 because Neptune, through a retrograde phase, has entered Pisces again. It's going to return to Aries on January 26th, where it'll stay for approximately 15 years. Then Saturn returns to Aries on February 13th, 2026. Uranus is back in Taurus, where it's been since 2018, and then it enters Gemini on April 25th. So, you could say that we still have work to do around all of this crap, basically. We could say heavily now until January, February, before Saturn and Neptune leaves Pisces, because Pisces is trying to wash us clean and heal us from the past. Then, when Uranus enters Gemini on April 25th, that will be the beginning.

I really do believe this, and I'd be more than happy to be proven wrong because I'll take a stand for the vision and hope here. But I think that's when we're going to be living into the new dawn, the new era, but not before.

Okay. Should we talk about the nodes?

Colin: Yes, let's do it. The North Node is entering Aquarius. We're shifting from the North Node in Pisces, which we've had since January 2025, and then it's going to enter Aquarius. 

July 26th is when the node actually enters, but we're going to experience our first New Moon eclipse in Aquarius on February 17th.

Colin: So Aquarius is collective liberation and making sure that we protect the most vulnerable, which is why I was discussing the North Node in listen to Black women Aquarius because we know the United States does fuck all to protect vulnerable Black women. We're going to see a whole new shift in collective liberation, collective injustice, and ways we can address it, because the North Node is in Aquarius. So we're going in that direction. The South Node is in Leo, so it's one big collective, get the fuck over yourself and show up for other people. Because again, back to the industries that we've critiqued, it positions so often, self-love, self-help, selfie, self-me as the supreme spiritual mountaintop. That's the floor, that's not the ceiling. 

So that's what I'm looking forward to with Aquarius energy. Maybe, it could be a collective reckoning around what Aquarius also rules social media, technology, AI. Modern tech is Aquarius.

So, June 19th, Chiron is entering Taurus, which honestly kind of freaked me out when I saw that because I'm a Taurus Rising.

Colin: I know, I know. Between Uranus and Taurus completely destabilizing my poor Taureans to have Chiron following suit, like, Lord, have mercy. And what we will definitely see, because when the outer celestials or planets enter the first degrees of a new sign, it kicks stuff up to show us pretty quickly. Yeah, I think it's only going to further what Uranus and Taurus from 2018 to 2026 has helped us understand primarily about our context for security and safety.

Actually, can you give an overview of Chiron? Because Chiron isn't talked about as much, but I really love it. When I read someone's chart, I'm like, "Oh, where's the Chiron?"

Colin: Chiron is an asteroid that represents the wounded healer. So Chiron was the wounded centaur who trained the demigods, but was always in pain. He can never be the figure he was training to be, the best hero. My gay astrology godfather, Christopher Redstrom, says if you look at the Chiron symbol, it looks like a key.

He says it is the key in many ways. Whatever sign it's in represents what we came into this lifetime with around a particular wound. So for you, there could be a wound around intellect, communication, active listening, very Gemini. I'm not convinced just yet, but I hold the theory that when we bring the wound to the light, when we think about the impediment to action, advances action, what stands in the way becomes the way, the foundation of Stoic philosophy. Then the Chiron wound becomes the wondrous medicine that we provide with and to others. This beautiful healer's prayer, "I will be healed as I let God teach me how to heal." And I think of Chiron in that similar way of, I will be healed by this if I heal other people from it, through it, because of it, in spite of it.

Mine is in the second house, so it's value. And I do think I have a big wound around my own personal value. That's also something that I have written a lot about. And I think there's something about also being vulnerable for others' enjoyment. A lot of people ask me, like, "Oh, is it hard to share such personal stories about yourself?" And honestly, not really, because at some point it kind of stops being about me. I'm the vessel, sharing the story so others feel seen. That is the purpose of it. So sometimes, I have to get out of my own way. I'm not just sharing things just for the sake of sharing them, and I'm still making sure that I'm protecting myself, but I share things that I know others are going to be able to see themselves in it. And even when it's something I have felt insecure about, sharing it lets me set myself free.

Colin: Let’s go into Jupiter in Leo because that's such good connected tissue. Leo is the sign of self-disclosure at its highest expression. People don't know the first fucking thing about Leo at its highest expression. 

When I think of Leo, I think of Whitney [Houston]. In terms of a practice or a principle for Leo, it's that sign of self-disclosure. So I'm going to tell the story of who I am with my whole heart, and in doing so, you can't take me from behind, baby. Because I just told on myself. 

It's not that Whitney did that per se, but I think she had this gorgeous expression of self-disclosure. She told so many truths. If she felt like she needed to be private, she could be private, but she was extremely honest about her struggles around what it meant to be a pop artist on MTV when they only wanted to see Madonna, not a Black woman. And because Chrissy, you have the capacity for vulnerability invisibility, you then set other people free. That's the beauty of Leo. When I think of Leo, I think of that energy of just I will heal other people because I have the courage to be vulnerable in my visibility, and none of you motherfuckers are going to take me down.

I really believe in that, especially when it pertains to being on the internet. I think there's two ways to look at it. I do not feel like everyone needs to expose themselves on the internet. I feel like a lot of people do that for clicks and views and this and that. No one should feel like they have to do that. I feel a higher calling to sharing things about myself, so that's why I do that. But at the same time, I think there's this narrative, "Oh, well, if I don't tell people things, then they won't say bad things about me. " Or don't give people ammunition.

Colin: Bullshit.

Even when you hide things from people, they can still make up whatever the fuck they want. Hiding things from the public, it doesn't make it any different because then they are left to their own devices to storytell. 

Colin: And can project whatever they want. And it's case by case. Also, I think that the beauty of Leo is that I define who I am, you don't. I will get up here imperfectly and courageously and tell you exactly who the fuck I am. And from there, you can make up whatever stories you want, but I will define who I am. Leo is this sign of worthiness, right? So it's like, I am fundamentally worthy of love, joy, belonging, and expressing my full self, and I will not be taken down by shame, silence, secrecy, and judgment. Absolutely fucking-utely-not.

Go into Jupiter some more. I always tell people with a new year, it's fun to track the Jupiter cycle in your chart because that's just where some good energy is going to be. Although I will say, I experienced this with the Jupiter in Gemini transit, that sometimes Jupiter can also expand things that are bad.

Colin: Yes. Concurrent on that. So first things first, Jupiter's in Cancer until June 29th. The first half of this year, we're going to think about Jupiter, as I would say, the planet of imagination and vision. So I think we have to remember that the story of Jupiter's success only expresses the images our minds intentionally imagined. It's all about thought work, belief work, and another incredible idea that has become absolutely flattened and weaponized in spiritual, personal development communities.

It's the notion that author David Gikande, of Happy Pocket Full of Money says, all our life is the images of the mind expressed—which is not to say if something bad happened to us, I imagine this. No, but it is to say that if you are not intentionally bringing in imagery that helps you imagine a different life, then we're going to be in trouble. That's Jupiter.

So Jupiter wants, "Hey, listen to music as regularly as possible where you can visualize and imagine particular success." We are amazing fiction writers about worst-case scenarios. Then, when I pass them the mic and say, "Well, can you give me best best-case scenario?" Silence. Why is that? That's a Jupiter question. So we're doing it with Cancer for the first six months of the year. It's all about belonging, emotional safety, and home. I'm imagining a world where my Italian citizenship case gets actualized—it's home, family belonging, culture of origin, ancestry, connecting to that energy.

Then, when Jupiter enters Leo, it is about the courage to take risks and be seen. In doing so, do you set other people free? Chrissy, I'm sure this happens to you regularly, what is it like when Black women stop you and say, "Because of you, I feel, because of you, I can, because of your leadership." It must happen regularly.

Yeah, it just makes me feel like I'm doing something right with my life. It makes me feel like all of the things that I've gone through, it was for something.

Colin: Yes. Oh my God. And that's Leo too. It's like it was for something, was on purpose. I am on purpose. 

I think it's just a profound feeling to know that you can create change in someone's life. I was doing a lot of DEI consulting for a while, and my business partner and I would always say, not all of us have the power to change policy and to make these big sweeping changes. You have the responsibility of creating change in the ways that you have the power to do so— whether that is hiring interns, seeking out a more diverse set of hires. Not everyone's got to get on social media and get on a little soapbox and do this and that to create change. You can create change for your neighbor. You can create change at work. You can create change in your family.

Colin: You better do it in your family. And I would also say to the story of Aquarius, we're going to get really metaphysical. There's this idea by Carl Jung, A Course in Miracles talks about this kind of collective conscience. It's the notion that deep down, we are one another. You, as a sunbeam, and me as a sunbeam, are we separate from the sun if we're both sunbeams? No. Of course not. We're not separate from each other. We are each other. So Aquarius is this idea, which then says, you think that talking to your neighbor about Islamophobia isn't healing the collective because it absolutely is.

Because you're their neighbor and because you also grew up in a post-9/11 Islamophobic culture, you'd better be the one in your zone of control and proximity to educate them, should you establish that trust, where you help them understand that it is not indicative of the totality of Islam or Muslims would denounce this regularly. You have a responsibility to that one person because that's what heals the entire collective. So cut the bullshit with, oh, I'm not effective and powerful. Start small. If you don't start small, you can't scale. Well, you think you're going to just have these sweeping changes in Congress, and you can't even talk to your neighbor? Please, please.

Should we talk about the remaining eclipses in Virgo and Pisces for next year? And then we'll do the Venus retrograde.

Colin: So, the last Virgo-Pisces Eclipses that we have this year, March 3rd, a lunar eclipse in Virgo, and then we have another lunar eclipse in Pisces on August 28th. The way that I understand Virgo Pisces now is just the integration of mind, body, spirit, health, and the small goals we can make in our routines, which are very Virgo, right? Embed in your routines, the particular habits that help you somatically and psychologically. Small goals, though, even if it just means, my only resolution for 2025 was to drink more water. 

Great resolution. How have you been doing?

Colin: Great. I just got tested on hydration yesterday. So yeah, it was just small goals, drink more water, try to be more routine. I think the beauty of Virgo as the virgin archetype, it talks about self-possession, meaning I take care of myself. I don't externalize that to you, nor do I get mad at you if I don't feel like I'm taking care of myself. I get to say, "No, I can't go to dinner with you tonight. I bought a meal packaging service, and I don't want it to go to waste. So let me just take care of myself and eat my healthy food." That's very Virgo. We become the vessels, the containers for the Pisces truth, the great mysteries, the spiritual energy that can come into our vessel when we have a pretty clean mind and body.

With Pisces, it's not routine, it's ritual. So, the power of ritual is so underutilized, I think, in many spaces because it allows us to contain, capture, and deliver us from particular things that maybe we need that sacred space for. That's what funerals, weddings, and birthdays are, they're all rituals.

So, having that now, especially in times of so much collective uncertainty, the Virgo-Pisces axis would set us all down and say, "I understand it's the 11th hour, but it's not midnight yet. So please work on a small goals-only approach to improve the mind, body, somatics, bring some rituals once a month if you need to, a continued sacred space where you can bring grief, anguish, loss, whatever you need to do because these are very serious times and we need people seriously committed to their personal excellence because that's the only thing that is going to help meet this moment.

Rounding out the year, the last major transit happening is the Venus retrograde in Libra.

Colin: Always got a Venus retrograde, right? Venus retrogrades happen every 18 months, very normal. And we bring what astrologer Jessica Lanyadoo calls the law of RE’S. So any verb that starts with RE, research, return, reexamine, rethink, to whatever concepts the retrograde planet rules. So for this case, it's Venus Retrograde. So we're bringing reexamination to relational intelligence. And I'll actually just leave it at that in terms of what Venus rules for this context, because what Libra teaches all of us, sometimes great, sometimes irresponsibly, is that the quality of our life is determined by the quality of our relationships.

So often we feel, and I get it, because of the state of the world, the economic injustice. Wait, so I got to work on my hydration, my finances, my physicality, and now you want me to read a book about how to relate to other people? 

Yes, because honestly, I'd like you to put that at the top of the list, simply because the longest study into the investigation of adult development and adult health done by Harvard, it's called the Adult Development Study, since the 1930s. JFK was even one of the participants, and it's determined across almost a hundred years’ worth of data. The quality of our relationship boosts our immune system.

Generally, tied to financial rewards, it advances us professionally. The partner we choose actually increases the likelihood of whether or not we get sick. If our immune system is compromised, because I'm under cortisol, because my partner is driving me nuts, or I'm driving him nuts, because it could definitely be me. I'm no prince. I'm no walk in the park. We're just going to constantly be getting sick. So that's what I would recommend for Venus Retrograde: for each and every one of us to just say, all right, what on the level of relational intelligence are greater repair skills? Because I think it's more, most people need to repair. We're all very boundaried and walled off. Okay, well, you're alone.

Right? Oh, you did this to me. Well, I'm going to just write you off. I can't understand that.

Colin: Even if it's something as simple as, Libra rules agreement-making. So a lot of us don't make requests, we just choose resentment, and then we never get into agreement because I'm just silently resenting because I'm not actually requesting.

What I love about my Libras is they say, "Hey, Colin, I would really like to be more intentionally in touch with you. Are you free on Saturday to have a discussion?" As opposed to thinking I'm a mind reader, and I know they want to be more intentional with conversation. I have no idea. So those sorts of things will come up during Venus retrograde, I suspect. Thank you for listening.

Of course. It's okay to just ask for what you need.

Colin: You are so Capricorn. I just saw my twin sister because she's obviously a Capricorn moon too. She's like, "You could just not come to dinner tonight." I'm like, "Oh my God, you're right. I just really need to be alone." And she's like, "So then I'm going to invite you to take care of yourself here." I love the way that you express Capricorn. It's really, it's something, honey.

Thank you. I love seeing myself through your eyes. Very affirming. Well, that's it for 2026?

Colin: You know what? Why don't we say one more thing just about the Mercury retrogrades. They're all in the water signs in 2026. I thought that was interesting, which we all have every year, approximately three or four Mercury retrogrades. They were in fire in 2025. But in 2026, they're in Cancer, excuse me, Pisces, Cancer, then Scorpio. So just learning about how do we make sense of our language and emotions in ways that provide what—  it's taught in Nonviolent Communication, windows not walls. 

I love that book so much.

Colin: Oh, do you? Of course you do.

I love Nonviolent Communication. Shout out to one of my old therapists who told me about it, and I recommend it to so many people.

Colin: I know. It's just, again, imagine if we learned this instead of calculus.

I think it's a huge problem in our educational system that we don't learn anything about how the mind works, how to communicate better.

Colin: I also wonder if it's intentional, right? Because if people aren't learning about the mind and how to communicate better, then we wouldn't demand more of our public education system in America.

Honestly, I knew to the best of my capability that 2025 would feel like this.. just hurry up and wait. We had retrogrades for the first six months. There would be a bit of a crescendo in the spring, mostly in the summer, and then it would die down again. It was a nine-year numerology, so it's all about wrap-ups and completions. 2026 is a one-year. After that Saturn-Neptune conjunction opens up February with extraordinary new beginnings. I'm really looking forward to it. I really am.
