00:00:00:00 – 00:00:26:11
Unknown
We're going to be talking about the important dates of 2026, dates that are perfect for specific types of things that you might want to accomplish. 2026 will be like the deep dive. Air balloons go floating like the fire spread everything just like those that are at a hyper speed on some roller coasters, there's a midpoint. The roller coaster we're like, kind of hitting the crest in 2026 is the first drop.
00:00:26:13 – 00:00:49:02
Unknown
We start to find out, like where the momentum is going, no matter how hard it is. It's a mission and it's something that feels at a soul level, like that level of satisfaction that you can't get from anything else. It's not just about picking the mission statement or going forward with this one thing that you really, really want, but it's also about bringing people together to be able to achieve that thing.
00:00:49:07 – 00:00:59:23
Unknown
You want to travel light. You don't want to like waste energy. It's dancing with it. Here's the music, here's what's happening. How can you harmonize with that music?
00:00:59:24 – 00:01:45:14
Unknown
Well. Hello everybody, and welcome to the Astrology Hub podcast. Today I am so excited to be bringing you our first on this platform overview of 2026. So with me, I have two incredible electional astrologers, two electional astrologers who have been the ones who have written our magic dates. Report something we'll talk about later. For two years in a row, and actually Joe has written them for three years, but we're going to be talking about the important dates of 2026 dates to keep your eye on dates that are perfect for specific types of things that you might want to accomplish in the year ahead.
00:01:45:16 – 00:01:54:18
Unknown
We'll also be just talking overarching about the energy of 2026, and kind of the ebb and flow of what to expect astrologically.
00:01:54:18 – 00:02:11:09
Unknown
So I am thrilled today to have back on the podcast. Joji and Joji is a certified Hellenistic and electional astrologer. He's been practicing professionally since 2019. He also has a background in art, music and project management.
00:02:11:11 – 00:02:38:06
Unknown
He was a project manager for us at Astrology Hub in many different capacities for years. He's amazing. I love to have him on the podcast again and then making his astrological debut is Kyle Pierce. Kyle is an astrologer, a writer, and a podcaster known online as astrology for Earthlings and the host of the Killer Cosmos podcast. And Kyle, I'm so excited that you're here.
00:02:38:11 – 00:02:53:13
Unknown
I know you worked behind the scenes on the magic dates report last year, but because you're making your debut, let's just hear a little bit more about you and how you became an astrologer in the first place. Let's see.
00:02:53:13 – 00:03:13:20
Unknown
Well. Hello, everybody. Nice to. Nice to meet you. Yeah. So I would say that my interest in astrology started probably, like a lot of people as a child, reading, specifically was reading the Chinese horoscope, menus, Chinese astrology, Chinese restaurants.
00:03:13:22 – 00:03:23:05
Unknown
And I've always been, like, a little bit of a skeptic. Like I thought it was fun and interesting, but I never really, never really, like, allowed myself to take it seriously.
00:03:23:05 – 00:03:35:09
Unknown
I, studied history and international relations in school, and kind of dabbled in different social sciences.
00:03:35:11 – 00:03:53:11
Unknown
And then, at one point, my sister read my horoscope to me, but she used my moon sign, which I'd like. Never. I never heard of, like, knew what my sun sign was. And I heard the moon sign. I was like, what? What? Like I felt like, I felt called out a little bit
00:03:53:11 – 00:03:59:04
Unknown
and it sort of sparked, a renewed interest in it.
00:03:59:05 – 00:04:03:05
Unknown
I'd always kind of been interested in things adjacent to astrology.
00:04:03:05 – 00:04:22:13
Unknown
But then, after that, it was just kind of go from there. And, you know, I was able to sort of combine my interest in history because astrology is essentially a study of time. And, yeah, it just kind of took over, took over my life. And here I am,
00:04:22:13 – 00:04:26:04
Unknown
as it does, I there's a way of doing that, right?
00:04:26:10 – 00:04:49:06
Unknown
Yeah. Amazing. And how did you decide to start a podcast and when did you do that? So let's see that was in 20 2021. I had started practicing astrology in a more professional context maybe a year before that. And I was like, well, I've kind of always like, wanted to do a podcast. Before it was about history.
00:04:49:09 – 00:05:17:08
Unknown
I'd like been kind of planning it for a long time. But I was like, well, I do astrology now. I should probably do it with my astrology and, Yeah. So I did start a podcast studying, you know, looking at, we'll say more, intense or extreme examples of charts to sort of give you, like, the most, to give you very loud demonstrations, maybe of what astrology can do.
00:05:17:11 – 00:05:35:15
Unknown
Has it like that? I like that. Yeah. Amazing. Okay. All right, you guys, if you had to choose in just a couple words, a summary of 2026, big picture. How would you describe it that year? The year ahead.
00:05:35:17 – 00:05:40:10
Unknown
You've been changing. I would say okay.
00:05:40:12 – 00:05:51:19
Unknown
That, I think game changing. I think I would agree with game changing. Maybe also like the we were talking before the podcast started, how
00:05:51:19 – 00:06:03:19
Unknown
like right now in 2025, it feels like we're in this, like at the edge of a cliff, just kind of like we're isolated. We you go to this new world, we have no idea what it's going to be like.
00:06:04:00 – 00:06:43:13
Unknown
I feel like the, 20, 26 will be like the deep dive, like we actually have jumped off into this portal, and we're now out here and everything looks different. And exciting because there's so much fire energy going on in 2026. I was I was thinking about this decade and it seems like and tell me if you agree with this, that if if there was like a heartbeat of the astrological energy, if there was like a heartbeat of the cosmos, this seems like we had a big spike, like a big heartbeat that happened in like 2020.
00:06:43:15 – 00:06:53:24
Unknown
And then there's been a little bit of a valley in a way, and that we're on the verge of another big spike. Is that true?
00:06:53:24 – 00:07:08:09
Unknown
Would you read it that way? Yeah, I would fully agree with that. Actually. Yeah. I mean, yeah, it's the perfect energy, like, you know, like like a big surge then and then like a lot of integration of that surge and then a big surge again.
00:07:08:09 – 00:07:31:01
Unknown
And then we'll probably have a lot of years of integration of that. Yeah. Yeah I would say that's true. It's kind of like a I like what Jody was saying, like on some roller coasters, there's like a midpoint, the roller coaster where they actually put you on that, like they bring you back up again on, like, the flow and like, we're kind of on that slow rise to the top.
00:07:31:01 – 00:07:48:14
Unknown
And we don't really we're kind of like get nervous because it's like, what's it going to be? What kind of drop are we going to get? And yeah, it's we're like kind of hitting the crest. And 2026 is kind of the the first drop. I would think, okay, I love it, which can be a lot of fun as
00:07:48:14 – 00:07:49:06
Unknown
well.
00:07:49:06 – 00:08:08:23
Unknown
It can be a lot of fun. So that was the next question. And if you had to describe, of course, nobody knows exactly what's around the bend. Nobody does. Right. And maybe some people will have some lucky guesses, but we don't really know. But if you had to describe the quality of the energy of that drop, how would you describe it?
00:08:09:20 – 00:08:16:01
Unknown
I would say it's pretty intense. I it's it's a lot of change happening very fast.
00:08:16:01 – 00:08:32:24
Unknown
You know, I'd say we've gotten, like, sort of like a test run, maybe a little bit of a taste of what that changes. But now we're kind of like, we've had, a certain kind of expectation set that, like, oh, some, like, things are trying to happen right now.
00:08:33:01 – 00:09:06:09
Unknown
But like what that final picture looks like? Not really sure, but we start to find out, like where the momentum is going. I would say next year we which there are plenty of corkscrews involved. Oh yeah. Of course, because I love those those they're so fun. I do, you know. Yeah. I think it's good that you mentioned 20, 20 a minute because I feel like 2020 and 2026 do have a lot of that, like big bombastic energy kind of in common.
00:09:06:11 – 00:09:31:04
Unknown
But worst 2020 because of like the pandemic. And all those things were so internal, like things felt intense and bombastic because we really had to go in. I think that 2026 feels explosive and exciting because we have to, like, really go out and go all the way out. Just because 2020 was all about Earth. And, I think there were there were some eclipses in, cancer happening as well.
00:09:31:09 – 00:09:50:20
Unknown
So it was all about water and earth. Water and earth, which are the yin signs. But now, as we were shifting into 2026, it's all about the air and fire science. So everything is just it's like when and fire. What happens when they get together? Like air balloons go floating like the fire just spread. It's just like everything.
00:09:50:20 – 00:10:17:14
Unknown
Just like goes. I don't like at a hyper speed, so to speak. Okay. So looking ahead, I mean, we've been talking a lot about February of 2026, the Neptune Saturn conjunction at zero degrees of Aries. Obviously, that's a huge deal. Do you do either one of you want to say anything about the about that the significance of that transit?
00:10:17:14 – 00:10:39:02
Unknown
the Saturn Neptune conjunctions are always kind of a they're always about dissolving a structure of some kind or something that was, set in place for a long time. Those are kind of Saturnian things. Neptune kind of the vaporizes, those on some level doesn't mean that everything is going to fall apart.
00:10:39:04 – 00:11:08:11
Unknown
It's just that, like some structure which we have come to recognize as sort of enduring and we've come to rely on, is going to change shape, and it might undergo a sort of multiple shape changes before it finds a final form. But we see, like with the conjunction is the, the kind of seed moment we see that that initial dissolution, if you will.
00:11:08:13 – 00:11:34:00
Unknown
And then we start to try to reassemble things after that. Go ahead, Jodi, I would love to hear your answer on that too. And then I have a follow up question about timing. Of course. Yeah, yeah. When, Kyle and I were doing a podcast, together, we had, like, the series of, core scopes where, I'd always have an image for the transit of the day.
00:11:34:02 – 00:11:54:11
Unknown
And so whenever I try to, whenever I have to talk about a transit like this, I always try to picture, like, what it what it looks like or like an image that it really evokes that energy. And Neptune and Saturn together always makes me think of lava lamps, because it's like lava lamps are like this plasma, like amorphous thing.
00:11:54:11 – 00:12:24:17
Unknown
If it looks hot and it's bright and everything, but there's no, like, real defined shape to it, even though it's still within a container. So I feel like, a little bit of, the Saturn, Neptune and Aries, wherever it's happening in somebody's chart might be about really trying to bring shape to this, like, really electrifying or like vitalizing, thing that animates that area of one's chart.
00:12:24:19 – 00:12:48:13
Unknown
But doing that in a way that is not entirely put together yet. It's this thing that, like, illuminates you and like brings light to, to, to an area of your life, but it can't really, like be contained neatly as, like a lamp can like you can just even like a spotlight, a spotlight. You can just like shine a spotlight in one place and then that's it.
00:12:48:13 – 00:13:09:08
Unknown
That place is shining, but with a lava lamp. It's like the light is diffuse and it's like a little, when it's like it's mysterious and spooky, but it's still kind of like, brings this air of excitement to to a space. So that's what. Well, I would describe it. I hope that makes sense. Definitely. And in for those of us.
00:13:09:11 – 00:13:29:17
Unknown
So if we're looking at our chart and trying to anticipate a little bit about what area of life this is going to, lava lamp light up. Are we just looking at the house? Where where are we just looking at Aries. Zero degrees. Aries in our chart. Or are we also looking at other places in the chart to get some sort of idea?
00:13:30:04 – 00:13:55:18
Unknown
yeah, I tend to prioritize the place that it's happening in. But then I look at like the other pieces of that puzzle as being, like the initiator so-to-speak. So like, let's say you're I'll just use Cancer Rising because I'm cancer rising and cause cancer, isn't it? Makes it easy, actually, for cancer rising, that's happening in the 10th house, which is the house of career.
00:13:55:20 – 00:14:18:22
Unknown
And Saturn is the planet for cancer. Rising is responsible for the area of partnerships and also your partnerships assets. So, to me, the way that I would see this is that it really is a career thing that's happening. It's like this lava lamp factor to your career. It's like it's put together, but it's not entirely put together yet.
00:14:19:01 – 00:14:31:20
Unknown
It's exciting, but you don't really know what to do with it. But it's through partnerships and through the assets of your partners that that is trying to create some sort of structure.
00:14:31:20 – 00:14:39:00
Unknown
Let's talk about other dates. So when we go, I know you guys have put together an entire report for us for 2026.
00:14:39:00 – 00:14:56:16
Unknown
it's Astrology hub.com/magic dates where you can get a full detailed report of the electional, meaning the important auspicious dates of 2026 with specific instructions around the things that are good to do on those dates. And those are the things to avoid on those dates.
00:14:56:18 – 00:15:23:06
Unknown
So that is available at Astrology hub.com/magic dates in the meantime. And well, I'll tell you about a little fun bonus that we have going for now. But in the meantime, let's talk about just some high level. Like if you scan your memory for 2026, what are some of the like key moments or times in the year ahead? In addition to that February conjunction?
00:15:23:11 – 00:15:41:10
Unknown
And I think you you highlighted one of the big ones, which would be the Saturn Neptune conjunction. I think in a lot of ways that kicks off the energy of the year in general. I think looking at the Jodi, do you remember when the Venus Jupiter conjunction is taking place? Roughly, that's
00:15:41:10 – 00:15:45:16
Unknown
Venus. Jupiter conjunction is happening in summertime.
00:15:45:21 – 00:15:52:12
Unknown
And I will say it's probably in like mid-June. Yeah, I'd say that's
00:15:52:12 – 00:15:57:14
Unknown
one of the big ones. That's what I'm most looking forward to for sure.
00:15:57:14 – 00:16:04:19
Unknown
Why are you looking forward to it? Kind of because, you know, Jupiter is
00:16:04:19 – 00:16:13:14
Unknown
is the maybe the spiritual good, the wisdom, you know, the the big picture good that makes you feel, connected to the world.
00:16:13:16 – 00:16:35:06
Unknown
And Venus is like the good on a day to day basis, like the a good meal and a good conversation. And I think when you combine those two together in a sign that Venus and Jupiter, both do great work in, you get really nice, you get a really nice time. It's a nice time for a lot of things that we that we tend to like doing.
00:16:35:08 – 00:16:41:16
Unknown
June, June of 2026. Okay. So how about you, Joe? What what's what's jumping out at you?
00:16:41:16 – 00:16:51:21
Unknown
think there's like two really big ones that I don't hear a lot of people talking about because it's so easy to, like, focus on the really big, big, big events.
00:16:52:02 – 00:17:15:18
Unknown
Yes. Really excite me. One, happens right at the beginning of the year. It's, Mars and Capricorn. It's a triple conjunction of Mars. Venus. And listen, which means that both Mars is starting a new synodic cycle. So it's kind of like, we have new moons. This would be like a new Mars. But then we also have Venus doing the same thing.
00:17:15:18 – 00:17:37:22
Unknown
So we have a new Venus and a new Mars happening exactly at the same time in Capricorn. And I think that, is really important because Mars, the Mars cycle is about two years long, and we'll be having this Saturn in areas that we keep talking about for about two years now, because we're already had a little bit of like the 0.5.
00:17:38:00 – 00:18:09:01
Unknown
The Saturn usually stays in a sign. And the way that I was seeing this Mars, Venus, sun conjunction in Capricorn, it's kind of like this, this mission statement. We're about to get into this really big moment historically, astrologically. And so it's really nice to start the year with Mars and Capricorn, where it's exalted to release, set a really clear goal, that you want to accomplish through these next, next two years.
00:18:09:05 – 00:18:28:20
Unknown
Saturn and Aries usually brings a lot of hard things, and I think that, having Mars and Capricorn with Saturn and Aries almost kind of at the same time, they're both kind of like any other signs, even though they're not going to exactly be in each other's signs at the same time. It kind of allows you it allows us to like, see the hard thing and be like, you know what?
00:18:28:22 – 00:18:52:21
Unknown
I see the right thing. But this is what I want out of it. And this is what I'm going to do with, and Mars and Capricorn exalted is really exciting because it can get a lot done, but what I really like about having this synodic cycle also have start, happen simultaneously with Venus's synodic cycle. Is that Venus really softens a lot of Mars's.
00:18:52:23 – 00:19:15:00
Unknown
I guess workaholic nature. And it says that it's not just about picking the mission statement or going forward with this one thing that you really, really want. But it's also about bringing people together to be able to achieve that thing. Because I think that Venus in Capricorn, I always, I always think about Venus in Capricorn.
00:19:15:00 – 00:19:42:15
Unknown
It's kind of like, like a manager of a company who is just like, they're bringing everybody together. She's like, detach. She's smart from it. But she's like looking at everybody and really, like, say, you do this, you do that, you do that. So I feel like the beginning of the year is really exciting because, it allows us to see that goal, but also to find the team that will, carry that goal with us.
00:19:42:15 – 00:19:46:00
Unknown
I think that that's that's the first one that really excites me.
00:19:46:00 – 00:19:47:11
Unknown
What's the date on that?
00:19:47:11 – 00:20:09:13
Unknown
So it happens. I think January 7th is the official date, but it's really like January 6th, seven, and they kind of just like stayed together. I'm about like a degree apart for those three days. And it's going to be an energy. It's going to be an initiating energy that then we're with for a year or two.
00:20:09:15 – 00:20:32:18
Unknown
Correct. Like it's like the beginning of about a year or two. Yes. Okay. The other thing I love about what you just said is you use two words a little bit interchangeably, but in my mind they're, they're they're distinct. You said goal and mission. And I really like focusing on this word mission, that this is a time to get clear on your mission.
00:20:32:20 – 00:20:58:24
Unknown
And of course, within the mission there are goals. But the cool thing about a mission is it's something that regardless of how hard the road is ahead, regardless of the whether or not you have immediate feedback that it's working, whether or not that you know, no matter how hard it is, it's a mission and it's something that feels at a soul level, like that level of satisfaction that you can't get from anything else.
00:20:59:01 – 00:21:18:10
Unknown
Whereas goals, you know, you accomplish them and it's kind of like, okay, what's next? And, you know, it's it has a whole different feeling. So I love that you brought in that this is a great time to get focused on what is your mission, what is the thing that you feel from that, like the depths of your soul that you are here to contribute and get?
00:21:18:10 – 00:21:22:02
Unknown
Just get clear on that and start gathering your team. It sounds like
00:21:22:02 – 00:21:37:02
Unknown
gathering your team and your resources and the people around you who who also share that mission and who want to also bring that same thing forward. So I love that. Okay, so that's one. And what else I want to point out. Yeah.
00:21:37:02 – 00:21:44:05
Unknown
The other one that I'm really excited about is the Mercury Uranus conjunction in Gemini.
00:21:44:07 – 00:22:06:18

I think that one happens sometime in June as well. I can't quite remember the exact day. I can look at it if we want, but I think that it's the first official Mercury Uranus conjunction will be getting in Gemini since Uranus has been in Gemini, and also it will be like Uranus officially in Gemini for like years to come.
00:22:06:20 – 00:22:32:10
Unknown
And very similar to, I think, the, Mars in Capricorn, Venus in Capricorn, sun in Capricorn, triple conjunction. I feel like if that is like the mission slash goal statement, the Mercury Uranus is like that big moment of like, this is how I'm going to do this. And I just like the big epiphany or like the big just like the grand idea.
00:22:32:12 – 00:22:59:10
Unknown
I think that that's even the the name of the election that I chose for, for that time. So yeah, I'm really excited for that one because I'm a mercury Uranus native myself. And I think one of the things that I like about those two planets coming together is that it's random things like you just out in your day or you're taking a shower, you're going on a walk, and then somebody says something and then suddenly you're like, you just have an idea.
00:22:59:10 – 00:23:26:03
Unknown
You wrote a whole book. And one second I yeah, amazing. And time frame around that one. Let me triple check here. Now, I think it's in May. In May. May 17th. 18th. Nice. Okay. All right. So you guys, can we just back up a little bit and talk about electional astrology? Like, what is it? How does it benefit us?
00:23:26:09 – 00:23:44:00
Unknown
How do you choose these dates. Like what is the what is the way that you actually go through and choose dates and then and then I'd love to help bring the magic dates, report a little bit to life so people can can understand that a little bit more. But let's start with what electional astrology actually is.
00:23:44:00 – 00:24:03:02
Unknown
would say that the, the simplest answer to that is that electional astrology is really the art of choosing the right moment for what you want to do. And at the end of the day, it's ultimately just a little it's a more focused way of incorporating astrology into your life.
00:24:03:02 – 00:24:14:14
Unknown
Yeah, I think, I think we actually, addressed that question even last year. And Kyle and I even talked a little bit about it before we came into the podcast, that
00:24:14:14 – 00:24:24:13
Unknown
there's like two ways you can see it. It's either about matching your actions to the astrology or it's matching the astrology to your actions.
00:24:24:13 – 00:24:44:13
Unknown
It's like, oh, I want to do this. And then you find the good time for for doing that thing. Or you can also just look at the calendar and be like, oh, this is a good time to do this. And then you go and do that thing. So it's it's really about using astrology intentionally and, matching your actions to, divine timing, I guess.
00:24:44:15 – 00:25:05:22
Unknown
Yes. And also you're, you're not actions meaning it's also really helpful and knowing what not to do at certain times. You know, there's, we've all had that experience of a great idea at a time that doesn't support that idea, versus, you know, in, in putting a ton of effort and energy and sweat and tears and all that.
00:25:05:22 – 00:25:26:00
Unknown
And it's just like, oh my God, why isn't this working? It's not because the idea isn't good. It's just not the right time for it. So it's like this, this opportunity to catch the wind in your sails and ride certain cosmic waves. And, so this Magic Dates report will gives you a sense of what those waves are collectively.
00:25:26:02 – 00:26:00:02
Unknown
And then, of course, the more information you have about your own chart, you can you can get really nuanced and subtle with it. But what I love about just having a overarching view into the dates of a year ahead is you, you, you get that insight into the ebbs and flows, and then you can decide. So, for example, this last in 2024 when Jupiter went into Gemini, I looked at that wave, so to speak, that lasts about a year.
00:26:00:02 – 00:26:22:15
Unknown
And when I'm going to ride that one, because my Jupiter is in Gemini. And so I was like, I'm going to ride that wave and write my book. During that time. And it worked. And I can't tell you how many years I tried to write a book and it never works. So it was it was like just just timing my energy and my effort with something that felt really supportive astrologically.
00:26:22:15 – 00:26:43:00
Unknown
It also gave me a deadline. It also gave me like a narrative. I'm like, I got a year. I got a year to write this thing. You know? So I really think that it's, you know, there's many different levels of, of how it can work. But like our finance manager at Astrology Hub loves this Magic Days report. And literally she she times so many things that she's doing.
00:26:43:01 – 00:26:49:21
Unknown
She doesn't know astrology as deeply as, as we do or as you guys do. I'm going to put you in a different category than me.
00:26:49:21 – 00:27:00:02
Unknown
She doesn't know astrology. It's to the certain depth, but she but there's just enough information that she can use it to time her efforts and her energy. And
00:27:00:02 – 00:27:11:20
Unknown
and she's a very, like, skeptical, left brain, you know, finance manager who is finding that much value in it that every single year she's like, we got to bring magic date back because she wants it personally, you know?
00:27:11:20 – 00:27:35:13
Unknown
So one of the things that we've done is that Magic Dates report is, yes, a PDF that you can have tangibly, but it's also and it integrates into your calendar, which is my favorite. So it's in my Google calendar. I can see I can go into any date that I might think about doing something and see if it's an auspicious date for something specific, or if it's not.
00:27:35:15 – 00:27:59:18
Unknown
So I have to tell you this my daughter was complaining about school and we open up my calendar. I don't even know why, but she went in and was like, oh, it's not a good time for hard work. This isn't just like, oh, I had so she it's like, c'mon, this isn't a good time for hard work. I mean, in some way she's right, you know, like, oh yeah.
00:27:59:20 – 00:28:12:06
Unknown
So tell us a little bit about your process. I love that you guys do it together. Is it fun for you to write this report? Oh my God, it's so much fun. So what do you do? Like tell us a little bit about your approach and how you actually choose the dates.
00:28:12:06 – 00:28:33:01
Unknown
what I like about doing the magic dates calendar is that it kind of focus or just, forces me to focus one sort of chunk of time at a time? So I'll just kind of start looking at that month or if somebody is coming to me with, an electional request, they usually have a time window of some kind, and I just look at, like, what?
00:28:33:03 – 00:28:52:11
Unknown
What's going on that month? That is good. I usually start with, with, like, what Jupiter is doing, what Venus is doing because they tend to make things just go smoothly. And usually that's what we're aiming for is whatever we're doing want it to go as smoothly as possible. So I just kind of look at, like, what?
00:28:52:13 – 00:29:15:10
Unknown
What is very strong in the sky, like what is not being interfered with by other planets. And I look for ways to sort of set that, set that up for success in the chart. And I look for times where, oh, Jupiter is like right there on the ascendant, and Venus is applying to it, trying to Jupiter.
00:29:15:10 – 00:29:39:24
Unknown
So Jupiter is not, not only not interfered with, but also it being, affirmed or stabilized or, it's finding friends along the way. And really, you you can look at it both ways. I kind of like to look at what what is most supported by the month. If I'm doing the magic dates, for example.
00:29:40:00 – 00:30:08:07
Unknown
But if somebody comes to me with a request like they're looking to get married within this time frame, you know, I'll focus it around what is the either the best time, within that framework. Yeah. For them to get married. So I'd be looking at Venus, maybe, and then other factors, of course, but, yeah, I'm just trying to set set up the, the planet that's associated with the thing that you want to do for success in the chart.
00:30:08:07 – 00:30:14:19
Unknown
So you put it in the powerful position, first house or the 10th house?
00:30:14:19 – 00:30:26:14
Unknown
Do you guys like, break up the months? Do you, do you have a zoom call or are you, are you close enough to each other where you could actually, like, sit down and do it together? Like what was actual like process?
00:30:26:14 – 00:30:56:16
Unknown
Yeah. We, last year we kind of just said you take odd months, I took a month and we kind of just go about it. And then this year we just flip. That is, I just go like that. I think cowls and cows approach in my approach is so similar that we can just kind of like, do it and we'll back each other up pretty easy, even, going through the all the dates myself because I was the one adding them to the calendar.
00:30:56:18 – 00:31:31:18
Unknown
It's always just so much fun seeing that Kyle Kyle selected the same dates that I would have said were actually in that, electing for that month or anything like that. But yeah, even as kind of I was saying, my approach is very similar. I think the only, the only thing that, maybe I differ in my approach is just that I, I tend to focus more on just what is available and less on Venus and Jupiter a little bit, because I tend to be a little edgier with my lectures.
00:31:31:20 – 00:32:02:17
Unknown
I try to just, I try to, see what's available and then try to justify or try to create a scenario where that thing is just like the perfect moment for something, like in the, in the bonus, month for the elections. We were looking for another set of two dates in December 2025, and I saw that there was a really good election on Christmas night.
00:32:02:22 – 00:32:16:12
Unknown
But the election was a mars election, and Mars is not usually great for bringing people together. So. Right. I'm like, how can we use this Mars energy on Christmas? How can that actually be a constructive thing?
00:32:16:12 – 00:32:19:03
Unknown
And so my I
00:32:19:03 – 00:32:24:05
Unknown
go and create a whole scenario, like what would Mars do on Christmas and how would Mars do that?
00:32:24:05 – 00:32:26:03
Unknown
In a really good way.
00:32:26:03 – 00:32:28:17
Unknown
And I want yeah. Oh yeah.
00:32:28:17 – 00:32:39:20
Unknown
my approach for that is like, sometimes families, have, very intense discussions on Christmas night, but then Mars is exalted, in Capricorn during Christmas.
00:32:39:20 – 00:32:59:18
Unknown
And so how can we put some of that tension to good use? How can we just, like, be direct, see what we need to say to each other, and then move on and be friendly afterwards? And so and it's also nice to have Mars in Capricorn with Venus in Capricorn because it's like, yeah, we're different. Yeah, we disagree, but let's just agree to disagree and move on.
00:32:59:18 – 00:33:26:01
Unknown
So my election was just like and agree to disagree election and like move forward kind of thing because I think sometimes it's when me elections are more about finding what a good intention for the movement is versus finding a good movement, so to speak. That makes any sense. Yes, I like that. There's like matching, taking into account the weather, so to speak.
00:33:26:01 – 00:33:49:05
Unknown
And then just it doesn't mean you don't do the thing. Like if you, if you're planning the outdoor party, it doesn't mean you don't have the outdoor party. It just means that you you put up the tent and you, you kind of like, take advantage of the rain and you make the a dance in the rain party. Or you like, instead of trying to mold our lives around the astrology, it's it's it's dancing with it.
00:33:49:05 – 00:33:54:20
Unknown
It's dancing with it. Here's the music, here's what's happening. How can you harmonize with that music
00:33:54:20 – 00:34:02:22
Unknown
in that moment? Yeah, totally. Yeah. Yeah, I like that way. Putting in a lot. Yeah. Okay. So here's like some examples and I love this. So
00:34:02:22 – 00:34:11:12
Unknown
when they say they named the elections right now we have as we're recording this today we have three different elections on this day.
00:34:11:12 – 00:34:35:13
Unknown
And I'm looking at my little calendar here on my phone. So we have feeling blessed Jupiter and cancer. And this is this, this is this one's been going for a lot of days. So you get how many days this actual election is valid for. Then you have claim what's yours with Mars in Scorpio and you have rebalancing the scales with Venus in Libra.
00:34:35:15 – 00:35:00:13
Unknown
And so then you get a little description of what that's about. So Venus in Libra is arguably one of the best windows of the year, with Mars offering support in financial matters and Jupiter providing guidance and mentorship for business growth. This energy is perfectly aligned for getting your finances in order and setting yourself up for success. You see why my financial manager loves this kind of insight.
00:35:00:15 – 00:35:25:12
Unknown
So this particular one, which is, October 4th all the way through November 6th. So as this episode is airing live in, this is still in effect. So this is still relevant for any of you listening. It's good for money and business, romance, beauty and making friends. Not so good for competitions, hard work and decisive action. So let me ask you this question.
00:35:25:14 – 00:35:52:03
Unknown
When you look at an election and let's say you already have something planned, for example, let's say you're already signed up for a marathon, which is a competition, and it's saying this is not good for me for competitions, how do you work with dates that are this harmonious with the thing that you're trying to accomplish? What would you recommend to someone?
00:35:52:03 – 00:36:12:21
Unknown
I think that actually brings a really good point about the magic dates for point, how we've done it, because we have two categories of elections. I guess we could say we have the windows of time, which are the ones that you're speaking about, where they are like really long. It's like Venus in Libra is really good for these things, and she'll be there for these many dates.
00:36:12:21 – 00:36:33:11
Unknown
And then we go on to say, like, if you take Libra Rising, for whatever action you're doing, you're probably going to emphasize this a little bit more. But then the way the, the same way that we have Venus in Libra right now, you also said that would have Mars and Scorpio right now. So and Mars in Scorpio is perfect for competitions.
00:36:33:17 – 00:36:57:00
Unknown
So in that case, it's really about tuning in the rising sign or tuning in the time of the day that you're starting something to kind of draw more of one energy versus the other. And because some of the elections in the report, for every month, we have two very specific ones where it's like just this one date, this one time you go and do this thing.
00:36:57:02 – 00:37:19:00
Unknown
But what these windows are time you can. It's more like a tuning fork. You can be like, do I want more Jupiter? Do I want more of Venus or do I want more Mars? And then you just look for the rising sign with whatever astrology app that you have. You find out when that sign is rising, and then you go and start your competition whenever Mars is rising in Scorpio.
00:37:19:00 – 00:37:36:01
Unknown
Or if you don't want to do that, you want to have a friendly time, a friendly time with all your friends and your buddies. You go and pick Libra Rising because then it will heighten. Venus. If you just want to relax, then you go with the Jupiter in Cancer, and then you just look for cancer rising or Pisces Rising or something like that.
00:37:36:01 – 00:37:49:03
Unknown
Oh, wow. So you can okay, sorry, this is a another level or layer or nuance that I haven't even been using. But so what you're saying is when there are several energies on a given day
00:37:49:03 – 00:38:05:24
Unknown
and you want to ride one of those waves, you're surfer, you're looking at the SAT, you're like, I want that one. You can look at the rising sign and use your astrology app to see which sign is rising in the location where you are, right?
00:38:06:01 – 00:38:29:06
Unknown
But and choose the rising sign that is associated with the planet that you want to emphasize. Correct. My saying there is. Yeah. Oh yeah. Absolutely. I might give a sign is also noted in the, calendar itself. So if you click on the date, it will tell you pick whatever rising sign for that or pick this other sign for that.
00:38:29:06 – 00:38:55:14
Unknown
Yeah. Okay. Amazing. Okay. See, I'm, I'm learning something new too. Yeah. Okay. All right. So because we are we're airing this episode right around Halloween, we always like to do a fun little Halloween promotion around magic. And so this year's promotion around magic is the magic Dates report, which we don't normally release until December the year before the year ahead.
00:38:55:16 – 00:39:19:14
Unknown
So we're going to release it now. It's actually already available. And with that A you're going to get a bonus. So if you have the 2025 Magic Dates report, you're going to get a December 2025. You're going to get several more elections that are not included in the original 2025 report. So you're going to get some bonus elections.
00:39:19:16 – 00:39:44:12
Unknown
Joji talked about a couple at one of them. So you're going to get bonus elections, and then you're going to get the entire 2026 as well. So it's essentially you're getting 13 months for the normal, price of 12. And if you're new to this whole magic dates concept, you're going to get 13 months out the gate and your magic dates, reports or elections will start in December of 2025.
00:39:44:14 – 00:40:06:05
Unknown
It's super simple. You go to magic dates, you go to astrology.com/magic dates, you purchase the report, and then once you do, you're going to get two links. You're going to get the link to the PDF that you can actually see it and read all the details that you want. You're also going to get the option to click a link and add the magic dates to the calendar of your choice.
00:40:06:10 – 00:40:11:16
Unknown
What are the calendar options? I know we have, Google Calendar. What are the other ones?
00:40:11:16 – 00:40:29:00
Unknown
We have Google Calendar and AI calendar as the primary ones, but this year I also gave, a downloadable a link to the actual calendar that you can pretty much add to any other calendar, that you have. It's just like a universal format.
00:40:29:02 – 00:40:37:17
Unknown
It's. Yeah. Give me how to get a little tricky with it. But if you know a calendar that has that function, you'll know how to do it. Okay.
00:40:37:17 – 00:40:51:00
Unknown
Nice. Okay. So looking ahead you guys, anything else you want to tell us about 2026. Especially now like between now and the end of 2025, what can we be doing to prepare ourselves for the energy ahead?
00:40:51:00 – 00:40:57:05
Unknown
What what would the astrology point to in terms of the best ways to prepare ourselves?
00:40:57:05 – 00:41:13:18
Unknown
well, first of all, I would say that, as Jodie was talking about earlier with the Mars Venus conjunction in Capricorn, that's very much about, like Jodie was saying, like picking, picking, choosing the the team for your big heist.
00:41:13:20 – 00:41:42:04
Unknown
Maybe, if you will. And, if we're looking that in relationship to the Saturn, Saturn, Neptune conjunction in Aries that that wants to that wants to take something apart. Right. And, if you're looking to identify what your mission is, identify your target, like, identify what it is that you want to get rid of in your life or what maybe needs to be broken down and reshaped into something else.
00:41:42:06 – 00:42:06:05
Unknown
Yeah. And sort of identifying what that target is, finding the team, finding the people that will support you and making that your mission. And I would also say that be be prepared to, to adapt to changing circumstances. Like, in a sense, you want to,
00:42:06:07 – 00:42:35:22
Unknown
If you're Mars in Capricorn, right? I still would be starting the year off with, You want to travel light? You don't want to, like, waste energy on things that aren't going to be productive or that are just going to disappear in a month. So, like, not necessarily planting, trying to start big operations, maybe, kind of build flexibility into your plans and be prepared to adapt and move.
00:42:35:22 – 00:42:38:18
Unknown
I would say that's as
00:42:38:18 – 00:43:00:18
Unknown
one of the astrologers in 2020, I remember in the 2020 year I had forecast the term was stay bouncy. I like that. Yeah. So I'm, I'm hearing that again like like a tennis player. You're bouncing, you're ready to go that way or that way or you know right left forward or back. But you're bouncy, you're, you're prepared and, and that way.
00:43:00:23 – 00:43:02:02
Unknown
Yeah I love that. And
00:43:02:02 – 00:43:14:05
Unknown
travel like I heard you say travel lightly. And and that goes with saying bouncy. It's hard to be bouncy when you're weighed down with a bunch of stuff. Yeah yeah yeah. Okay. Love it. Okay. How about you Georgie.
00:43:14:05 – 00:43:21:15
Unknown
Yeah. One of the things that I've been looking at is how Jupiter is going, going retrograde now in November.
00:43:21:17 – 00:43:50:15
Unknown
And if Jupiter and cancer is like this bounteous placement, whatever it is in your chart, just open your chart, see where cancer is, see what that house is and the topics of that house. There's good things going on there. Was Jupiter going retrograde? I feel like right now, from now until I think it's February, really, when Jupiter will start moving forward again, I think is a really good time to take stock of that area of life that's really been working, really been working.
00:43:50:20 – 00:44:17:01
Unknown
Things have been really moving forward. And now that Jupiter is like slowing down, like just closing the faucet a little bit as it goes retrograde to kind of like redistribute some of those assets or redistribute some of those, good fortune, like if you, if Jupiter free was a whole lot of money, maybe money is going to slow down for a little bit, like figure out how are you going to be spending some of those assets in 2022?
00:44:17:01 – 00:44:46:04
Unknown
Like kind of was saying, just don't try and spend it on everything. Try and really focus on like the few little things that, have really been working for you with Jupiter has been like your career, and you got all these opportunities and people are calling you left, right and center. Maybe things are going to slow down now, and you can take a look at which opportunities really worked for you and, really focus on those ones, as opposed to everybody who's, calling your name.
00:44:46:06 – 00:45:17:13
Unknown
Things like that I think can really help. And starting 2026 with like, a positive and, what's what's the word? How resourceful. Sustainable. Yeah. It's starting, 20, 26 and like, a very sustainable sort of way. Okay, so what I heard there is see where cancer, cancer is in your chart. Jupiter is going to be going retrograde there.
00:45:17:15 – 00:45:40:20
Unknown
So that place in your life may have you may have been feeling a lot of abundance that that may be kind of slowing down for how long. Like how long? It's Jupiter retrograde from, November until February. All right. So ebbs and flows. That is not forever. Give you the exact date if you. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that'd be great.
00:45:40:23 – 00:46:03:01
Unknown
So anyway, so in that area of life, just anticipate that there could be some like shrinkage there. There could be some pulling back. So make a plan for that. Don't spend everything and then go oh shoot I now I don't have any reserves. Right. And and that's part of the simplifying process that we're going to be doing as we come into this really new time.
00:46:03:03 – 00:46:06:09
Unknown
So I love it. Did you find it? You.
00:46:06:09 – 00:46:25:17
Unknown
Yeah. So, Jupiter will go retrograde around the beginning of November, mid-November. It'll really start to slow down as soon as November kind of comes around. But it will start moving forward again in March, the 10th of March. So there's there's some time, like a slowing down Jupiter, but.
00:46:25:20 – 00:46:46:22
Unknown
Right. What I always like to say about planets in retrograde is that they really get to spend a lot of extra time in that sign, which is actually a good thing. It's not a bad thing. So I think it's really about, like, learning how to manage those resources. Well, Jupiter is and cancer is abundance. So you have from November until March to really figure it that out and redistribute.
00:46:46:24 – 00:46:48:00
Unknown
Yeah. Yeah. It's
00:46:48:00 – 00:47:08:20

just it's like ironing out the feast or famine kind of tendency. Right? Like instead of, yeah, absolutely. All or nothing, all or nothing. It's like, no, how do I actually, like, make that a little more even in my life, wherever that is impacting your life, you know, instead of burning out and spinning out and then having a period of time of absolute nothingness,
00:47:08:20 – 00:47:10:23

like, how can I bring more balance into that?

And I'm like, what you just said about Jupiter spending more time in that area of your chart as well. It's like Jupiter is leaving even more of an imprint as it's spending more time there. And yes, that imprint has a you know, sometimes it feels like more and sometimes it feels like less, but it's more Jupiter like, either way you look at it.

Yeah. So yeah. Okay. Oh go ahead. Okay. I was to say I, I actually really like Jupiter Retrogrades because it's, it's about consolidating your gains and how to keep what you have acquired. Yeah. So through the retrograde, you end up stabilizing and then you end up finding out, like, what's actually going to stick around. Yeah, it's a nice, I look forward to Jupiter retrogrades personally, so it's amazing.

Do you have Jupiter retrograde in your chart? No, no, I have, Cassini, Jupiter. So it's actually the opposite of retrograde, which is why. Why I like it. Because I tend to just go, go, go with the Jupiter. Like, yeah, I can do that. I can do that. All right. And then when the retrograde comes around, it's like, well, now I know what I can actually hold on to.
