Grief has a way of bending time. A holiday can feel both gentle and impossibly heavy, especially when a birthday arrives without the calls you once depended on. We sit with that tension and read the symbols for resilience in Romy Reiner’s chart, using astrology not as prediction but as a toolkit for courage, structure, and meaning. What emerges is a grounded path forward: daily practices that stabilize the body, honest boundaries that protect the heart, and a faith that’s earned in the dark, not borrowed from the light.
We unpack how a Capricorn sun can be both a burden and a backbone—the mountain to climb and the strength to climb it. With Pluto close to the moon and Mercury, language becomes a lantern for shadow work, pointing to the possibility of writing, speaking, or teaching from experience. This is Sagittarius at full power: turning chaos into coherence and sharing wisdom that others can use. We explore the North Node in Virgo as a call to routine, service, and small, repeatable acts that restore agency when everything else feels beyond control.
Along the way, we talk about addiction, boundaries, and the quiet heroism of choosing actions that heal. We reference Viktor Frankl’s insight about the last human freedom—choosing our attitude—and connect it to the present Capricorn transits emphasizing time, discipline, and higher aims. The heart of the conversation is simple and hard: move a little, every day, toward the life that can hold your story without breaking you. If this resonates, share it with someone who needs a steady hand, subscribe for more grounded conversations, and leave a review to help others find the show.
