This week begins with some supportive transits that are important to tap into. These will help later in the week, just in time for Thanksgiving, when we have some challenging squares to Saturn from the Sun and Mars and a Venus opposition to Chiron that will kick up issues of self-worth. Listen to Ghost of a Podcast, astrology for real life.

A listener joins Jessica to investigate their place on the gender spectrum as well as how their birth chart might help them find clarity. What does it mean to be out about one's gender, and is it necessary in all circumstances?

On the 13th there will be a New Moon in Scorpio and a disruptive opposition between the Sun and Uranus. The week ends with activity between the Sun and Mars, stirring up passions, defenses, and reactiveness.

A listener feels blocked in their expression of love and intimacy with their closest people. They join Jessica to talk about ways of breaking generational trauma and expanding emotional possibility.

Get ready for more disruptive, defensive energy this week, alongside some pretty supportive transits. We’re still feeling the effects of the Venus opposition to Neptune and Mercury opposition to Uranus until the later part of the week, but luckily, we have supportive transits to both Pluto and Neptune active that will create opportunities for aligning with values, understanding one another, and more effectively communicating. There’s a depressing square between Mercury and Saturn as well as an explosive opposition between Mars and Uranus. Get your weekly tuneup on this week’s Ghost.

Safety in relationships is so powerful in such a turbulent world. A listener loves his two amazing boyfriends, but he's struggling at the crossroads of holding on versus letting go. What to do when you've built a wonderful chosen family but are also feeling a deep need for change? Jessica talks nuance and the need to look beyond 2-option decision-making.

On the 28th there will be a Lunar Eclipse in Taurus, and it’s pretty chaotic. Expect big emotions, big developments, and big opportunities for your own growth. The week starts with lingering impacts from the Sun and Mercury’s squares to Pluto, and we have some supportive trines to Saturn from the Sun and Mercury as well. Jessica acknowledges the complexity of the times we're living through, and offers some perspective and advice in this week's horoscope.

Cutting people out of your life can be a powerful move, and can bring big personal transformations. When it becomes a modus operandi, however, it can shift into an emotional liability. How to keep the power and also evolve? A listener joins Jessica to unpack this very personal topic.

We are deep in eclipse season, and that means emotions are running deep and high! This week is very Plutonian with both a Mercury and a Sun Square to Pluto. This is a time that can bring out the worst in us if we do not tap into emotional nuance.

Being malleable is so valuable and dynamic. But how does that impact one's sense of self and center? Abigail joins Jessica for insight into the very elusive question: What am I?

Welcome to Eclipse season! Anxiety, defensiveness, and big emotions are included in this week’s horoscope. We'll be feeling the affects of a Mars Square to Pluto throughout the week as it builds towards exactitude next week. On the second Mercury forms an opposition to Neptune, kicking up anxieties. Luckily, on the third Mercury forms a trine to Pluto, which will have a stabilizing and grounding impact.

Jessica encounters a psychic wall in her reading with this week's guest! Together, they explore what it means to block people energetically and how that can impact intimacy in relationships. They talk about changing the self as a form of caring for others, and so much more.

Last week Jessica touched on the collective indications of Saturn and Neptune in Pisces; this time she unpacks the personal. This weaves into important themes around boundaries and emotional presence as this week involves two emo and important oppositions between planets in the Aries/Libra polarity: Mars in opposition to Chiron on the 24th and a Full Moon in Aries on the 29th. Luckily, we have two earthy trines from Mercury to Jupiter and Uranus to support us along the way. Come for the astrology, stay for the life skills.
