Today’s end‑of‑2025 episode explores one of my favourite themes in Vedic Astrology, the mystical and practical power of the number 11! We’ll look at the 11th House, the 11th Sign (Aquarius), and the 11th Lunar Day or Tithi (Ekadashi), and challenge ourselves to answer the question: what do wealth inequality, dopamine, cortisol, and fasting have to do with the number 11?!?

Together, we’ll explore how the 11th House shapes our aspirational pursuits and our relationship to accumulation. We’ll look at how Aquarius, ruled by Saturn, brings balance through its pragmatic commitment to collective responsibility. And we’ll reflect on Ekadashi, the 11th Lunar Day, as a natural practice of emptying, resetting, and remembering that we can thrive without constant consumption.

Whether you’re a long‑time Vedic Astrology enthusiast or newly curious, join me as we unpack the deeper meaning of the number 11 and why its teachings feel especially relevant at this sacred threshold between years.

Wishing you a blessed beginning to 2026!

In this episode I take a deep dive into the connection between intimacy, sexuality, and grief. Joined by holistic trauma therapist Sara Jones, we discuss the intertwining of these profound themes, often associated with Vedic Astrology’s 8th and 12th houses. We explore Sara’s research, published in “The International Journal of Sexual Health” on therapists working with grief and how it affects their clients’ intimate lives. The episode also delves into the importance of rituals, holistic methods, and how Vedic Astrology can support individuals through these life transitions. Join us for an enriching conversation that bridges taboo topics with spiritual growth.
