[https://www.astrotash.com/services/star-charts/] P.s. the first 13 minutes is quite woo woo. I love it, but if it's too in depth for you, don't worry, we break it down from 13 min onwards.  We start with a deep dive into October 2025. Tash unpacks the planetary shifts, what they mean for us personally, and how we can take advantage of the energy around us. We also explore the truth about Scorpio season....busting some common misconceptions and discovering how this transformative energy can support us all. From there, we get back to astrology basics and talk about: 🌙 How the moon phases support manifestation (and what to release under the new moon) 📑 Making decisions around contracts, relationships and big moves ~ when the stars are on your side and when it might be better to pause 🔄 Retrogrades: what they really mean, what to avoid, and how they impact us ☀️ How eclipses can reveal our destiny 💫 Using your birth chart to know when to step up, be more assertive, or lean into patience I also ask Tash how realistic she is in her own life ~ does she only manifest on new moons, does she hold back from signing contracts? She shares her balanced approach: astrology is an incredible tool, but it works best alongside common sense. This chat isn't just theory. Tash shares powerful personal stories, from her early ballet days and struggles with confidence, to navigating her divorce and finding light at the end of the tunnel through astrology. And if you're curious about your own chart, you can grab a free birth chart from Tash that will show you your sun, moon, rising and beyond. It's such an exciting way to understand where you are right now and how the stars are guiding you forward. Try the birth chart here!
