The North Node just moved into Aquarius, and your North Star is pointing you in a whole new direction for the next 18 months.

This is the shift from being the fire that keeps everything running to sitting on your CEO throne while your systems do the work.

If you've been burning yourself alive as the fuel source in your life and/or business, this drop is your permission slip to stop.

In this episode...

🔥 Why the "put out one fire, then the next" way of running your money is the old way it's time to release

🪐 What the Leo-Aquarius axis is actually asking of you right now (and why it matters for your bank account)

👑 The CEO reframe that applies to you whether or not you have a business

🧬 How building money systems based on your design makes it so things keep running whether or not you show up

💫 The only thing in astrology you have to choose to will into existence

When you know how to work with this new North Node direction, your money stops being a source of drama and starts becoming a source of security. You get to stay you – quirks and all – while your systems carry the weight you've been carrying alone. That's the Aquarian way, and it's the way to abundance that actually lasts.

The North Node just moved into Aquarius. That's our North Star of potential, of opportunity, of the new direction we're all flowing toward. And it sits opposite the Leo South Node, right as we've stepped into Leo season too.

So this Leo-Aquarius axis is lit up right now. Let's talk about it.

A Little Authority Flex

I'm mostly Aquarian, and that's part of why this has me so excited. My Sun, my Mercury, and my Jupiter are all in Aquarius in my third house.
So I know this territory. And I'm excited to tell you all about it now that we're all headed in this direction together.

Beyond the humming undertone of us all being here for the Age of Aquarius, we're now in this 18-month chapter of aiming that way.

Why Your Nodes Matter So Much

Besides my Saturn return, the second biggest thing that was just so palpable for me to figure out was my nodes.

They gave so much context to my path of least resistance. That unconscious, slippery slope I fall into when I'm not paying attention. The habits and patterns I slide back into because they're the most comfortable and familiar for me.

I'm a Scorpio South Node. And then that North Node space is territory where you're not naturally very good at it at all.

But here's the phenomenon: every little bit of progress you make in that direction, every lesson you learn and then embody, every little bit of embracing that other side just makes everything else work better. It's the way of big medicine for each of us.

When the collective North Node changes signs, it's like we're all collectively becoming aware of the patterns we're ready to let go of from the South Node. The attachments, the distortions. And we start moving toward the opportunity, the new possibility, the collective evolution in the direction of the North Node.

Let me qualify that. The South Node isn't bad or wrong or something to avoid. It's just not the direction. It's something to acknowledge for the gifts and skills we already have, so we can use them to go the other way.

The Leo-Aquarius Relationship
​
With Leo and Aquarius, we're looking at a relationship. Leo is the sign of the Sun. It's positioning yourself to be visible like the Sun to an audience, which is more of that Aquarian collective surrounding you.

When that Leo expression is integrated with the Aquarian side, it's authentic. You're not just putting on a show like an actor. Ideally, you're embodying your truest self and radiating it outward as expression.

The other archetype of Leo is royalty. We each have our individual role to play, shining to our people, radiating our expression out to those who could benefit from it.

But there's a pendulum swing here. When you feel disconnected from yourself, when you get caught up in the applause or attention you're getting, you lose yourself. Then it feels like you're acting. It feels like dance monkey, dance. And that's not what we want.

Owning Your Throne, Authentically

So I created something that addresses exactly this. It's about owning your throne, but as a unique, authentic expression of your own wiring and design.

Part of that is having a cosmic blueprint perspective. Your way of speaking, your charisma, your magnetism. What you radiate when you're coming from your truest self is unlike anyone else's expression.

The other part is that Aquarius is the solar system to Leo's Sun. So it takes into account all the other perspectives you're mirroring, the energetic matrix you're expressing inside of. One way we track that shifting matrix and cosmic current is with the transits, the shifting energetics of the unseen.

So authenticity becomes that sweet spot where you're expressing as you, and you're channeling the energy of the Sun and the Moon and the other supporting planets of the moment. That's the purest form of authenticity I know.

A Free Gift for Leo Season

What I've created in support of this is called Cosmic Content. If you've seen any of my recent yap videos over the last month, those came from prompts based on the Sun and the Moon.

I have a prompt pack for each Sun season. The last one was for Cancer season. We just began Leo season, so we're working with a new prompt pack, based on the Moon changing signs within that Sun season and what the collective is feeling and focusing on in that moment. So they really land.

It's completely free if you want to participate. If you'd like the prompt pack for Leo season: Get immediate access here.

That's one way to make the most of entering the scene hot with the Aquarius North Node, from this Leo South Node throne of expression.

You Are the Engine – But You Don't Have to Be

Here's the second piece. Leo is the Sun at the center of the solar system. It's the parts of our life and business that would fall apart without us. We are the engine. We are the power source.

Opposite that, you have Aquarius, which is the solar system. The systems you create based on that central fuel source of creativity.

But you don't stop there. You don't lock yourself into needing to show up as the Sun or the whole thing falls apart. You create systems that make it possible for things to keep running regardless of how much you show up.

So much of what I do and help others with is crafting systems like that. Systems to keep our reality spinning without us having to show up every single day.

Where This Shows Up Most: Your Money
​
The main way I help people do this is with your money.

So much of the way people are with their money, until they consciously choose to get to the other side, follows that same mechanism by which we reach the North Node. It's not easy or obvious.

I love the physics metaphor that energy is neither created nor destroyed. It simply changes form. That applies to everything in an astrology chart, of your birth or of the moment. Every luminary, every planet, every point. Everything except the North Node, which is the only thing you have to choose to will into existence.

So when it comes to money, our path of least resistance, the thing we slip into as our default operating system based on whatever our programming or influences were, is often drama. It's dramatic in one way or another, whether you swing anxious or avoidant.

But until you have a secure relationship with money that's based on a regular money check-in, you won't get there. A practice where you tend to everything that matters, where you're confident in what to look at and show up for, where you make decisions accordingly. You set it up in a way that works for you, your design, your quirks and differences, so you'll keep wanting to show up as your authentic self for it.

That's the Aquarian way. You get to be yourself. The way you do things, the systems you have, get to reflect that. And you actually create systems that support it.

The Old Way We're Letting Go Of

The Leo way is a bit dramatic, a bit in the moment. "Oh, let me go put out this fire and then this fire." Symbolically burning yourself alive as a fuel source.

That's the Leo way. That's the old way. We're letting go of it.

But what we're taking with us to the other side is the confidence, the royalty, the queenliness of sitting at your central throne.

I've reclaimed the acronym CEO in my world, in our world. It doesn't just apply to self-employed entrepreneurial business people. It stands for central energy organizer. That's the high embodiment of Leo. Being at the center of it all, but directing it. Creating the systems instead of being the fuel source that keeps everything running.

Instead, you become like the part of the Sun where the indirect force of gravity you support is what makes it all happen. Love me a solar metaphor.

Ready to Make It to the Other Side?

If you relate more to the Leo side with your money and would like to make it to the Aquarian side, where your systems are based on you, your astrology, your design, set up so they happen without depleting you, and so they actually serve the bigger picture of what you're creating in your life, this is for you.

This is about getting out of the self-centered drama of your money struggles and stepping into the systems that will actually support your abundance.
