Lunar Lover: The Podcast

Scorpio Season is here, and with both Mercury and Venus retrograde, the internet would have you believe we're all heading for some sort of cosmic reckoning. But what if transformation doesn't have to mean total destruction?

In this episode, I'm exploring the deeper themes of Scorpio Season (October 23 to November 22), why two simultaneous retrogrades aren't necessarily bad news, and what Pluto's return to direct motion means for the weeks ahead.

We're also diving into our complicated relationship with control, the difference between surrender and giving up, and why sometimes the most powerful transformation is simply learning to loosen your grip.

Plus, practical ways to work with Scorpio Season, a little personal reflection, and affirmations to carry you through the month.

We're in week two of Venus Retrograde, so I thought it was the perfect time to explore love and relationships through the lens of your natal chart. And this week, you chose the topic!

Your Venus sign might reveal what attracts you, but does it tell you what you actually need to feel loved?

In this episode, I'm exploring the difference between attraction, emotional security and desire through Venus, the Moon and Mars. I'll use my own placements (Venus in Gemini, Moon in Virgo and Mars in Scorpio) to show you how our relationship needs can sometimes seem contradictory, and why that's not necessarily a bad thing.

We'll also explore how to use your natal chart to better understand your own needs in love, and why there's so much more to your relationship story than one planetary placement.

The Libra New Moon is asking us to look at the difference between compromise and self-abandonment. With Venus retrograde ruling this lunation and Saturn opposing it from Aries, we’re exploring reciprocity, boundaries, unspoken agreements and what it really means to meet someone in the middle. Plus, I’ll show you how to find 17° Libra in your chart and work with this New Moon personally.

Welcome to the very first Lunar Lover: In Conversation, a new monthly episode where I’m joined by Melissa for a more conversational look at the astrology we’re actually living through, using our own lives and charts as the case studies.

For our first conversation, we’re going back through our Venus Retrograde histories to see what was really happening each time Venus changed direction. Relationships ended, exes resurfaced, money arrived, values shifted and, in hindsight, the astrology is rather hard to ignore.

Then we travel back to 2018, the last time Venus retrograded through this same part of Scorpio and Libra, to explore our eight-year echoes and ask: what would 2026 us tell our 2018 selves?

We also share what we’re watching as this Venus Retrograde unfolds, so we can come back next month and find out whether the echo actually echoed.

Go and give Mel a follow and connect with her: @the.numbersmiths and www.thenumbersmiths.com

Venus Retrograde is here, and from October 3 to November 14 she’s taking us on a journey through Scorpio and Libra, asking us to reconsider what we love, what we value and what we actually want.

In this episode, I explore what Venus Retrograde really means, why old loves, desires and patterns can resurface, the fascinating eight-year Venus echo, and Venus’s transformation from evening star to morning star. Plus, I’ll help you understand where this retrograde is unfolding in your own chart and introduce my new Venus Retrograde 2026 Masterclass for those wanting to go deeper.

The Aries Full Moon arrives with plenty of fire, but with Neptune sitting tightly beside the Moon, acting on every feeling might not be the move. In this episode, I explore the difference between instinct and impulse, the Aries-Libra tension between self and others, Chiron’s return to Aries and a powerful kite offering an opportunity for movement and change.

I’ll also show you how to personalise the Full Moon through your own natal chart, plus some practical ways to work with the energy without accidentally blowing up your life in the name of following your intuition.

Libra Season begins at the September equinox, a fleeting moment of balance before the scales start tipping again. In this episode, I explore what Libra can teach us about relationships, reciprocity, compromise and knowing when something needs adjusting. Plus, we look at the shadow and invitation of Libra Season, the astrology shaping this particular season, how to work with it and how to personalise it to your natal chart.

Eclipse season is officially behind us, and the Virgo New Moon feels like an invitation to put our hands gently back on the wheel.

In this episode, I explore the September 11 New Moon at 18º Virgo, its supportive sextile to Mars in Cancer, and why this lunation isn’t asking you to overhaul your life or perfect your routines. Instead, we’re looking at the small, useful adjustments that can make life work a little better. You don’t need the whole map. You just need the next useful step.

Venus doesn’t station retrograde until October, but the story has already begun. Venus has officially entered her pre-retrograde shadow, beginning a journey through Libra and Scorpio that will take us all the way to December.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what a retrograde shadow actually is, why Venus will travel the same degrees three times, and what to start paying attention to now when it comes to relationships, money, desire, intimacy and what you truly value. Think of this as the opening chapter. We don’t know the whole story yet, but the clues may already be appearing.

The Pisces Lunar Eclipse on August 28 is closing a chapter that began almost two years ago, and we may finally understand what this story has been about. This is an eclipse of revelations, emotional turning points and unfinished business rising to the surface. I’m exploring what’s ready to be released, why you might be feeling more restless or sensitive than usual, and how to look back to September 2024 for clues about what’s coming full circle now.

Virgo Season begins while we're still deep in the eclipse corridor, making this a season of discernment, adjustment and paying close attention to what’s shifting. In this episode, I explore the move from Leo into Virgo, the final Pisces Lunar Eclipse of the Pisces-Virgo cycle, Mercury Cazimi, the Virgo New Moon, and how to work with Virgo energy without slipping into perfectionism.

The Lunar Nodes have officially shifted into Aquarius and Leo, marking the beginning of an entirely new 18-month eclipse story.

In this episode, I unpack what the Lunar Nodes are, why this shift matters, and how this new cycle invites us to balance individuality with community, creativity with contribution, and heart with vision. We'll explore the themes of the Leo-Aquarius axis, what the upcoming eclipses may bring, how to tell if you're experiencing a nodal return or reverse nodal return, and how to personalise this transit using your own natal chart.

In this episode, I unpack the astrology of the Full Moon at 6º Aquarius, including its powerful conjunction to Pluto, supportive aspects to Uranus and Neptune, and the rare Jupiter Cazimi in Leo happening at the very same time. We also explore what it means now that the Lunar Nodes have shifted onto the Leo-Aquarius axis, why this Full Moon feels like a preview of the eclipse story ahead, and how to work consciously with its energy.

In this episode, I'm exploring one of the rarest astrological configurations of 2026, as Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto all align at 4° of their respective signs, creating a remarkable web of aspects that astrologers have anticipated for decades. I'll unpack why this moment is so significant, what the late André Barbault believed it could mean for humanity, and how you can personalise this extraordinary astrology in your own birth chart.

This week we're exploring the Capricorn Full Moon, a lunation that asks us to take an honest look at the foundations of our lives. With challenging aspects to Saturn and Neptune, this isn't about abandoning your dreams, but making sure they're supported by something sustainable.

Cancer Season begins at the Solstice, one of the most powerful turning points of the year. In this episode, I'm exploring what it means to move from Gemini's search for information into Cancer's search for meaning, belonging and connection. We'll talk about the spiritual significance of both the Winter and Summer Solstice, Cancer's deeper themes of home, roots and nourishment, the shadow and invitation of the season, and the key lunar events ahead, including the Capricorn Full Moon and Cancer New Moon. Think of this as your guide to coming home to yourself over the next four weeks.
