What the Heck is Energetic Astrology?

Time. It's woven into every human experience. It controls us, rules us, tells us where to go but can easily slip away. In this episode Shannon talks about our often unquestioned calendar, it's connecting to physical reality and how to unravel ourselves from it.

What happens if you decide to listen to the phases of your body? What would you witness if you stopped trying to control the high tides or low tides and instead rode the waves? In this episode, we explore the connection to the Moon and the menstrual cycle, which can launch you into the waters of your own cosmic creative power.

How often have you heard astrologers or horoscopes forecasting lucky numbers or dates? What's that all about? Do we need permission, or can we decide to live a fortunate life right now? In this episode, Shannon explores the symbolism of Jupiter, its return home after 12 years and how recent Eclipses/Uranus transits invite us to rethink what luck is. It's a time to move beyond hoarding wealth; humanity is invited to bask in the riches of life's simple but always lucky pleasures.

When we think of astrology, we usually picture love, horoscopes, money, and relationships. But, in this episode, we expand that notion. We explore creative ways to use astrology, including parenting, pets, a context for current situations, death, launches and even books. Shannon shares a story about how having a celestial perspective helped shift her attitude towards her new book.

Not only are we back with a new season of this podcast, but we are also returning to the stardust with ourselves. In this episode, we talk about what it means to be made of stars and how it changes our approach to life. We catch up on the past two years' big themes, recapping them and turning our heads to ongoing epic transits. Of course, there's a relatable analogy for the current celestial cycles that helps make sense of the Universe.

We're emerging from the Eclipse Tunnel, some significant retrogrades are wrapping up and we've reached a pivot point of a pivotal year. The Universe is making some moves and life is propelling us forward. In this episode Shannon talks about the significance of the current transits and the dynamic between inner moves and external ones.

Eclipses occur in batches, also known as Eclipse Seasons. It's a time when energy lines up and gets straight to the point. It's a time to be aware that a train is inviting us to a new destination and it's our job to get on board. This episode starts by outlining information that is relevant for every Eclipse season. Then Shannon shifts gears and talks about the energy of the Eclipse Season occurring from June 5th through July 5th.  Get Shannon's best selling book Analogies, Energies & Celestial Bodies and join the Current Energies Update List at www.shannonhugman.com.

It's clear something unprecedented is occurring on the Planet. In this episode Shannon shares the astrological cycles at play and how they are connected to Earth's recent history. This episode emphasizes the importance of being aware of the energy we are embodying during these times. In many ways these cycles are about the power of the people; and we are discovering like Dorothy, we've had the power all along.  Shannon shares an overall analogy that Earth is essentially changing to a healthier diet and experiencing some detox systems before a new level of collective vitality kicks in. A  new wave of energy from Pluto and Jupiter is carrying us into times of information and illumination. It' a happening time to be alive on Earth and in this episode listeners will gain  clarity in order to support them in synthesizing with these changing times.

2020 is an epic year to say the least. There is so much to discuss and to become aware of. The year starts off with a bang so December is a good time to gear up for the shifts. Not to mention the planet Jupiter will be shifting in Capricorn early December.

Eclipse tunnels occur in the space between a solar and lunar eclipse. It's a 2 week (sometimes 4 week) window of time where things get a little wonky. That's why awareness is key! This episode will explain why this is a hands off policy time and how deciding to move with the flow of universal traffic can leave us less stressed and more aligned.

The solstice is a time of extremes. The summer solstice is the brightest day of the year for those of us in the Northern hemisphere and the darkest for the south. It's a point of peaks. This episode talks about why it's useful to become aware of this celestial event because we can see it and experience it with our physical senses. We talk about what this energy illuminates and how long it's been building. We explore switching gears and getting ready for the next 6 month cycle that kicks off.

Don’t buy into the negative retrograde hype. Retrogrades can be like a solid night’s sleep; giving us a chance to let go of our physical realities and tune into ourselves. Sure, it looks like we are doing nothing while we sleep; however anyone who has had a vivid night of dreaming can beg to differ. This episode offers a unique attitude that embraces the slow paced side of retrogrades and invites you to try it on to see if it fits.  Tune in to learn about Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus and Pluto's retrograde.  Follow @shannonhugman on Instagram, visit www.shannonhugman.com or email info@shannonhugman.com

Equinoxes are times when we experience equal amounts of daylight and night time. It’s an energy that strives for an even playing field; however it’s evident equality isn’t that name of Earth’s game. As inequality becomes clear our inner warriors are called to action. These energies show us where we are at and how we can balance out situations either by taking action or dialling back. It’s also the astrological new year! Remember beginnings take courage, bravery and perseverance. Connect with Shannon at www.shannonhugman.com or @shannonhugman on Instagram.

In this episode Shannon crunches the numbers and explains their importance when it comes to astrology.  We chat about the essential 12 themes, the 360 degrees of the chart and each planets journey. We chat about the various "chapters" of each sign and how the degrees of a planet impact their aspects to other planetary bodies. Shannon touches on cusp signs and master numbers. Rounding out the episode we talk about The Sabian Symbols and their significance.

The birth chart (also known as natal chart) is essentially a map of where the planets were when an individual was born. We can use this tool to put words to what we might already know about ourselves. Shannon shares a hack of the “12 themes” to give you a launching point on this ever unfolding journey of getting to know the chart. 

The current energies are palpable, apparent and A LOT; so it’s worth dedicating a mini episode to. Feeling frazzled? Fearful? Confused? Excited? All of the above? Maybe there’s a sense of something brewing beneath the surface but we haven’t quite found the words for it. This mini episode goes out to everyone whose wanting to discuss that which often goes unsaid. Here’s to the only total lunar eclipse of 2019. One that wraps up streams of energy that have been flowing since February 2017.

Eclipse season is a window of time which occurs twice a year. It's a period of energetic adjustments which are inviting us to adopt some good posture (symbolically or literally). This often occurs through being hyper aware of when we are slouching. It's a time of high speed movement however those currents may not line up with what we logically perceive. This is why it's key to adopt a flexible attitude which will result in less stress and confusion. Email questions to info@shannonhugman.com and follow Shannon Hugman on Instagram @shannonhugman. 

2019 is a year of commitment, self responsibility and taking ownership of our actions individually and collectively. Self awareness will pay off big time. This episode's intention is to provide an energetic map for the lessons at hand so that we can take the process of relearning and rebuilding seriously. Most importantly knowing we will always have to repeat and continue to grow. We chat about Pluto/Saturn in capricorn, Chiron in aries, Jupiter in sagittarius, Uranus in taurus and the eclipse seasons of 2019 (which kick off Jan 5th!).
