Jupiter is exalted in Cancer from June of 2025 until June of 2026. While this exalted benefic planet is here to bring us abundance, generosity and support, Jupiter in Cancer isn't "all good all the time" and there are actually several nuances to consider when interpreting this transit.

In this podcast episode, astrologers Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser explain what to expect from Jupiter in Cancer and how to interpret this transit in your birth chart. We go over Jupiter's significations, what it means to have an exalted Jupiter, how to determine how loud this transit will feel in your personal life, and what times of the year this transit will be more supportive and more limited. We also share some advice and herbal guidance for ways to get the most out of this transit and take care of yourself throughout this time.

A common misconception in astrology is that empty houses don't matter as much as houses where we have planets and angles. While the topics of houses with planets and angles may have more emphasis in your life, the empty houses in your chart still have quite a bit to say about your natal promise and how your life will unfold as a whole.

In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman explain how to work with empty houses in astrology and give interpretive guidelines for making sense out of this nebulous topic. We use traditional astrological techniques, particularly house rulership, to outline the significance of empty houses to give more depth to your birth chart interpretations.

• One of the most famous Greek myths tells the story of a young Icarus, whose father Daedalus had built him wings to escape King Minos so they could fly to safety. It's said that while flying over the Greek island of Ikaria, Icarus flew too close to the Sun and his wings melted, pelting him to his death in the rocky sea below.

  In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman talk about their pilgrimage to the island of Ikaria, where they visited the rock where Icarus is said to have fallen. This island is also considered a blue zone, where many people live to be 100 and have healthier lives than much of the world. And it is a beautiful location with ancient wine, panagiria festivals, thermal hot springs and a slow-paced life.

There's such a strong focus on the negative aspects of having a strongly malefic chart in astrology, but the influence of malefics can bring great strength, resilience and determination to a nativity. In this podcast episode, astrologers Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser are joined by Matthew Oliver, the founder of Still Water Alchemy, to discuss what it means to have your luminaries and/or angles ruled by the malefic planets Mars and Saturn.

We dig into the nuance of sect and how Mars and Saturn manifest in different ways through our charts. We share personal examples from all 3 of our strongly malefic-ruled charts to crystallize how these planets show up in real life and give some suggestions for how to productively work with malefic energy in your life. We also break down the difference between each angle and luminary to give nuance and depth to your chart interpretations.

So often, the conversation around the tropical and sidereal zodiac is framed as an either/or debate about which zodiac is "better." In this podcast episode, Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser are joined by fellow astrologer Cameron Cassidy to discuss the importance of using BOTH the sidereal and tropical zodiac.

We go over the philosophical differences underpinning each zodiac, as well as the constellational zodiac, to demonstrate the value that each system gives to astrological interpretations. We answer common questions such as which house system to use, and how to incorporate each zodiac with the astrology techniques you use.

This episode is an invitation to think about each zodiac system in a both/and orientation that allows ample space for nuance and complexity. Cam is so fun to chat with and we really hope you enjoy this conversation!
