In this episode, we dive deep into Mercury in Virgo and what it means for how we show up in our marketing and digital communication. As Mercury shifts into Virgo, we're invited to reconsider everything about how we communicate our work.

Host Daje Aloh gets vulnerable about her own social media burnout and the exhaustion of feeling like she's "walking into a really crazed marketplace where everyone is yelling and throwing things at you." She shares her journey of questioning whether staying on Instagram is actually serving her business or her soul, and how Mercury in Virgo is helping her reimagine her entire digital philosophy.

Virgo isn't the hypervigilant perfectionist we often think of—she's the archetype of the goddess who chooses herself, who's all about wholeness, health, and intellectual sovereignty. In our current digital landscape where there's so much distortion, working with Mercury in Virgo means cleansing and protecting our minds for the sake of our own wholeness and resilience.

We'll explore how to shift from creating content for content's sake to sharing from the deep well with specific purpose—not feeding algorithms but nourishing your own internal ecosystems. This is about communicating with self-containment and care, trusting what wants to come through you instead of forcing yourself to follow scripts that have nothing to do with your soul's evolution or your financial freedom.

Whether you're feeling called to go deeper into social media or exploring ways to off-ramp from platforms that feel extractive, this episode offers compelling questions about reimagining what marketing can be. How can we engage marketing as spiritual practice that serves not just our business goals, but our deeper purpose in the world?

If you're navigating social media burnout or questioning your relationship with digital marketing, this episode will give you permission to recalibrate and experiment with new ways of sharing your work that honor your creativity and essence.

In this episode, we dive deep into the upcoming Full Moon Eclipse in Pisces, occurring in Gate 63—the Gate of Doubt. But this isn't about doubt as we typically understand it. This gate is calling into question everything we think we know and inviting us to break into new awareness and consciousness.

In our culture, we worship clarity and certainty. We rush to fix doubt, get coaching, find answers. But what if doubt is actually medicine? What if our obsession with knowing is keeping us from truth itself?

This eclipse is actively obscuring what we think we can see clearly, creating fog around our certainty, spiritual concepts, and future plans. And that's exactly what's supposed to happen. Sometimes our knowing needs to be deconstructed so we can find our way back to source—what Clarissa Pinkola Estés calls "the río abajo río," the river beneath the river.

We'll explore how relationship serves as the mirror showing us what we don't know about ourselves and others, why this eclipse is asking us to evolve our understanding of love, intimacy, boundaries, and connection, and how to work with doubt as a pathway to deeper truth rather than paralysis.

If you're deconstructing your relationship with spirituality, social media, politics, or community—if you're feeling the "spiritual ick"—this episode is for you. You're not falling apart; you're waking up.

What if the reason you're struggling to build your business isn't because you're doing something wrong, but because you're trying to do someone else's thing?

In this episode, we dive deep into what I call the crisis of personal mythology—how our culture's obsession with homogenization is literally making us sick. We explore why one-size-fits-all business strategies are a form of spiritual violence, and how business astrology offers a revolutionary alternative.

You'll discover why your business has its own soul and astrological DNA, how to work with your unique creative operating system instead of against it, and why understanding your individual blueprint is the key to building sustainable success without burning out.

This isn't just another business strategy—it's a call to remember that there are as many right ways to succeed as there are people walking this earth.

What You'll Learn:

• Why "proven" business formulas often fail (and leave you feeling broken)
• The unconscious violence of forcing everyone into the same success template
• How your natal chart reveals your authentic path to prosperity
• What business astrology is and why it's essential for conscious entrepreneurs
• The difference between replication and education in the business world
• Why your business deserves its own astrological reading
• How to stop trying to be like everyone else and start being more like yourself

In this episode, we step into Virgo Season: a time often mistaken for perfectionism and productivity, but at its core, about integrity, rhythm, and alignment. With eclipses and the South Node activating Virgo, we’re being asked to release old habits of nitpicking, over-managing, and organizing ourselves around other people’s standards.

I share how Virgo Season invites us to keep creating even when things feel messy or unfinished, to honor grief as part of our creative intelligence, and to build systems that actually support us in a world that is unraveling. We’ll explore what it means to continue believing in your vision in the midst of global crises, and how Virgo teaches us to craft with precision and care rather than performance.

Eclipse season is upon us and this podcast is an audio guide for working with it effectively. Across the Virgo New Moon, Pisces Lunar Eclipse, Virgo Solar Eclipse, Aries Full Moon, and the closing Libra New Moon, the themes are clear: intimacy, doubt, fear, and friction. This cycle asks us to heal codependency, name where we’ve been dishonest with ourselves, and learn what true transparency requires.

In this episode, we explore the subtle body dynamics of intimacy—how we cord through the sacral, confuse fusion with connection, and perform goodness instead of embodying truth. We’ll look at the shadows of enmeshment, the pull of wanting to be seen as “doing good,” and the deeper medicine of being transparent and sovereign in relationship.

For visionaries, this portal brings an especially sharp mirror: Are you shaping your vision around what the collective wants to hear, or are you rooted in your own truth? The work here is learning to hold your ground, sing your note, and trust that harmony comes from difference, not sameness.

By the time we reach the Aries Full Moon and Libra New Moon, the invitation is clear: real intimacy means knowing where you end and another begins. It means choosing connection without abandoning yourself.

Themes for Eclipse Season Overall

• Theme of the portal: Healing enmeshment, practicing transparency, and stepping into sovereign intimacy.
• For sensitive beings: Get clear on what’s yours vs. what you’re absorbing from others.
• For visionaries: Notice where you’re performing “goodness” instead of being honest. True impact comes from authenticity.
• The medicine of friction: Conflict isn’t failure; it’s how two sovereign people learn to stay connected without losing themselves.
• The core practice: Discernment. Intimacy without fusion. Transparency without performance. Boundaries that make space for real connection.

Key questions:

• Where have you been hiding or performing connection?
• What ancestral fears about intimacy are you carrying?
• What would intimacy look like if you weren’t trying to earn it?
• How do your values shift when you stop carrying what doesn’t belong to you?

Why does astrology feel spot-on some days and distant the next? In this episode, Why Astrology Only Resonates Some of the Time, we explore the three levels that astrology speaks through: your soul nature, your conditioning, and your personality expression. You’ll learn why certain placements in your chart feel like a homecoming while others feel harder to integrate, and how to use this awareness to bring your outer expression into deeper alignment with your soul blueprint. This conversation moves beyond generic horoscopes and into practical insight for anyone wanting to work with astrology as a tool for integration and self-alignment.

In this episode of the Inner Circle Podcast, we explore the August 9, 2025 Full Moon in Aquarius, illuminating Gate 13—the Gate of the Listener in Human Design. Together, we unpack how this archetype invites us to bear witness, honor the stories entrusted to us, and release the narratives that no longer serve our lives, relationships, or visions.

We also share a powerful set of reflection prompts to help you work with this lunation—questions that bring you face-to-face with the truths you may be avoiding, the perspectives you’ve resisted, and the inherited patterns ready to be released. This episode is both a lunar guide and a practice in radical receptivity, calling us to soften the rigidity in our bodies, open to complexity, and create space for new relational and cultural possibilities to take root.

Join us as we explore how the Full Moon in Aquarius, Gate 13 can help us listen beyond our comfort zone, hold nuance in a polarized world, and align ourselves with the great turning of our time.

In this episode of the Inner Circle Podcast, we break open the long arc of Uranus in Gemini—an eight-year transit (2025–2033) that signals deep disruption in how we think, speak, connect, and lead. Uranus, the planetary force of upheaval and innovation, enters the mutable air sign of Gemini to catalyze a cultural and personal revolution: in language, identity, systems of knowledge, and the deeper archetypes that shape how we relate to change.

We explore the historical echoes of this transit—how every past cycle of Uranus in Gemini has aligned with major wars and revolutions in U.S. history—and why this moment is not about fear, but about pattern recognition. This episode traces how Uranus in Gemini reshapes communication, decentralizes authority, and challenges each of us to evolve our mental frameworks and leadership models.

This episode is a call to reimagine what intelligence actually is. We unpack the rise of embodied intelligence, polymorphic thought, and nonverbal knowing, offering a vision for how to navigate this transit not just intellectually, but somatically and soulfully as well.

What We Explore in This Episode:

• What Uranus in Gemini signifies and how it acts as a collective disruptor
• Historical timelines and how previous transits have shaped national and global upheaval
• How this transit uniquely affects rising signs—especially Taurus, Gemini, and Cancer risings
• The distinction between earned influence and performative virality
• How to shift from extractive intellect toward relational, body-based wisdom
• Practices for staying rooted and clear through a long cycle of uncertainty and reinvention

Key Takeaways:

• Every archetype is being reshaped: this moment requires personal integration
• Communication is evolving into a multidimensional field; we must listen with more than our ears
• We are being asked to stop performing knowledge and begin embodying wisdom
