I've got one more in person event coming up this month! I'll be at Defining You Fitness in St. Paul on November 18th offering a workshop on THE SIGNS! 🤩
We will explore the energy and symbolism of each sign with fictional and non-fictional examples of famous individuals in history who display each trait. Everyone on Earth is a mix of ALL of the signs of the zodiac. This is a great class to attend if you have never felt like you've resonated with your Sun sign or if you want to learn more about astrology. It can even help you understand your children, family members, friends and partners on another level!
This is a beginner level class, but is also great for more advanced students who want a refresher on the basics. No knowledge of astrology is required to attend.
TLDR: introducing Earthling Astrology's newest astrologer! upcoming in person event & and calendar is now open for booking!
Earthling Astrology's Evolution
I launched Earthling Astrology in February 2017 thinking that I would be doing astrology readings on the nights and weekends. I was still working full time in the corporate world and never thought for a minute that I'd be able to actually make a living doing this work. It was not in the realm of my belief systems at the time. I still can't logically explain WHY I started an astrology practice. As most of you know, I just LOVE astrology! I also felt like there was a gentle hand on my back guiding me to step into this work the whole time. I reflect often on my journey and just think....WOW. What a ride!
By February 2019, I was two years into my practice offering astrology readings on the nights and weekends. I was also managing a team in my corporate environment. Earthling Astrology was growing, but still nowhere near being able to pay the bills. I was in a meeting with my bosses discussing salary and raises for the employees that I was managing and they gave me numbers that I viscerally disagreed with. Let's just say there was an egregious difference in the raises for the male vs female employees. My bosses drew a line in the sand and indicated that the numbers were not up for negotiation. I RESIGNED ON THE SPOT! I remember screaming and shaking violently while my heart was pounding out of my chest. This whole event took place over the phone as I had started working from home in 2012. I'm surprised I didn't break the phone (or my wrist) when I slammed it down!
The Universe had other plans for me! If that corporate event hadn't happened, I may still be working in that world. I needed the kick. It felt violent! However, I am grateful that the Universe slapped me in the face like that. I was able to dedicate most of my waking hours to my 'side gig!' I cut out every expense I could back then. I picked up odd jobs and even drove for Door Dash to make ends meet. Eventually, Earthling Astrology picked up clients on both coasts. Later, I had my first international clients book. I made numerous podcast experiences and was also a podcast host for a hot minute. I worked side by side with psychic medium Natalie Fowler (https://nataliefowler.com/) for years. I met colleagues and collaborated at numerous yoga studios. I was offered space on the Learn It Live (https://www.learnitlive.com/Bundle/Workshop-Bundle%3A-Obsessed-with-Astrology%21/22662) platform. Day my day, month by month, year by year, I kept doing what I LOVE. While on the path of love, it is inevitable that fear finds its way to you. I was made to face my scarcity/lack mindset around money. I was made to stare my 'impostor syndrome' straight in the face. I was even made to tackle my fear of public speaking! I could go on, but I basically want to say that I'm living proof that you can follow a dream, no matter how small, and the Universe will back you up if you KNOW you are living and walking your authentic truth!
Now, in the next step of Earthling Astrology's evolution, I'm so excited to announce the hiring of Emily Frederick! She will be offering astrology readings starting this month.
Emily and I have mutual connections in the world of past life hypnosis. I've been working with her for months and her calendar is now open for booking! Hear from Emily in her own words:
I’ve been on a quest to understand what makes people the way they are my entire life. In my teen years, I was the counseling friend - the one everyone felt safe talking to and sharing their problems with. I was working on a Master’s degree in Counseling when something shifted inside me, and the plans I had made no longer seemed to fit my life. Through the lens of astrology, I know now I experienced 3 once-in-a-lifetime transits in a short timespan, and deep change was the only possible outcome.
Personality Psychology had remained a huge interest of mine, and I was fascinated by typology assessments like the MBTI and the Enneagram. Over a decade later, I was in the midst of the darkest time of my life when I stumbled upon astrology. This was another once-in-a-lifetime transit, though of course, I had no idea. I began to realize that the personality archetypes I had spent years studying actually had their roots in astrology, and the birth chart was the ultimate personality assessment.
In learning about my birth chart, I felt seen and validated, and like my life was actually serving a purpose. I was finally able to love and accept all of the aspects of my personality that had previously seemed contradictory and often felt burdensome.
I’ve studied at Kepler College and under Steven Forest through the Forest Center for Evolutionary Astrology, and am now a practicing Evolutionary Astrologer. I believe our spirits chose to enter this lifetime to have specific experiences - ones that allow us to alchemize joy, pain, love, and hardship into soul growth - and that the birth chart serves as our road map to understanding and self-acceptance.
Emily's starting rate will be $125/hour or $65/half hour. She is knowledgeable, kind, empathetic and has the 'spark' required to practice astrology! You can book an appointment with her above, or send her a hello at emily@earthlingastrology.com.
After working from a wait list for almost 18 months, I'm also excited to announce that my calendar is open for booking in 2026! I will be opening up more time as I start to build out my calendar. You can book with me now, but check back periodically if you don't see anything open. I'm still working out a few details for next year. I appreciate your patience as I've been doing my best to figure out the best way to manage the requests I receive.
I'll be traveling in November, but I'm planning to report more on the cosmic activity in the near future. It's wild up there and down here! Mark your calendars now for the next benevolent "BIG ONE" when Saturn & Neptune align at 0° Aries in February 2026. More on that later!

Science & Astrology
The Carlson Experiment of 1985 is perhaps the most well known case in history involving academics and astrologers attempting to 'prove' the validity of astrology. From what I understand, scientists and astrologers agreed on the experiment protocol. I also understand that the astrologers failed to prove astrology is any better at prediction than random chance! This topic is very interesting to me as science was, and still is, one of my first loves.
Astrology uses data and calculations that comes from scientific measurements. There is math, astronomy and lots of geometry involved. However, I found out early in my practice that I would often prepare an entire reading for a client and not use ANY of what I prepared once the reading began! I would spend hours poring over chart data, taking notes and doing calculations. When the reading would start, my intuition sometimes would pull me in an entirely different direction. This used to irritate my 'science brain' at the beginning, but now I've learned to trust these intuitive nudges and follow them.
A few months ago, my husband and I discussed one evening how we would design an astrology experiment to 'prove' that astrology has validity. We designed a whole experiment that we both agreed upon and went to bed. By the time I woke up in the morning, I abandoned the whole thing as I had poked too many holes in it!
I now believe that astrology can NOT be proven scientifically. I'm actually OK with that as I've been leaning into more mysticism as I age! Here are some current thoughts about astrology and scientific validity using language as an example. I do believe astrology is just that...a language!
Can you prove scientifically that the words above sound the same, but mean different things? How do you design an experiment to 'prove' that DOUGH means uncooked bread? How could you design an experiment to 'prove' that DOE means female deer? With language, we give it meaning. If you spoke the words above to someone who doesn't understand English, these sounds would not make any sense.
Continuing, how can I 'prove' that Venus in Cancer means something different than Venus in Virgo? You may hear the word "Venus," but her expression throughout the signs can mean different things. Her expression in a chart is also influenced by life experience. Additionally, an individual with Venus conjunct the Sun at birth would have a very different Venusian expression than someone with Venus conjunct Mars at birth.
To add to the complexity of astrological interpretation, each astrologer is wired differently. I've been filtering my life experiences through my Capricorn Sun sign my entire life. I will likely have a completely different view of a birth chart as someone who has a Pisces Sun sign. BOTH readings can be accurate and insightful. However, they would not be considered scientifically sound as the information would not be uniform.
I've conducted small experiments in the past around astrology. My favorite survey was around the topic of déjà vu that I conducted a few years ago. If you weren't subscribed to my newsletter in 2022, I'll repeat my findings for you! I had predicted that Pisces would be the sign that would be prone to déjà vu the most. My data surprised me! My survey suggested that Gemini was the most common Sun sign to experience déjà vu. In my results, Pisces ranked #2 in Sun signs to commonly experience déjà vu. My results are NOT scientifically valid and much more research would be needed with a larger population size. I love astrology research and have lofty ideas of conducting more of it in the future! If you have any wild ideas regarding astrological experiments, I'd love to hear from you! Feel free to email research@earthlingastrology.com if you've noticed astrological patterns or have any research ideas.

The next New Moon is in Libra on October 21st! ♎️🌚🩷
The upcoming Libra New Moon holds a strange kind of magic. On the very day the Moon lies down in the arms of the Sun, Mercury slips into the pre-shadow of its upcoming retrograde (from November 9 to November 29). It's a quiet New Moon signal to begin slowing down, rethinking, and listening more

TLDR: wild card eclipse energy incoming; emailed & expedited reading info below
Eclipse Season is brought to you by: Virgo & Pisces
Game on! We have officially entered eclipse season. In astrology, eclipses can come with beginnings & endings, wild changes and unexpected events.
The first eclipse is a total Lunar Eclipse happening on Sunday, September 7, 2025, in the sign of Pisces. Not only do eclipses represent 'wild card' energy, the 'wild card' planet, Uranus, will begin its retrograde period just a few hours before this Lunar Eclipse!
Lunar Eclipses tend to be more emotional than Solar Eclipses. Pisces is a water sign so the waterworks may be flowing! Let your body release any 'stuck' emotions. Perhaps consider taking it easy during the Lunar Eclipse weekend. Pisces is a sign that is very connected to the other side of the veil and the unseen realms. In a nutshell, the 'veil' could be very thin around the Lunar Eclipse. Consider calling to your loved ones who have left their physical vessel! You may invite them into your dream space at night, or even ask for a sign. It's thought our deceased loved ones can most easily assume the form of birds, particularly cardinals, so don't brush off any unusual bird activity around you if you see it! Stay extra grounded and hydrated. Do your best to tune into your inner peace. This eclipse can be absolutely magical & mystical if you surrender all control on how the magic shows up! Pisces asked us to trust, surrender and move with the flow of life and let go of the ego's desire for control. Write, sing, dance, make art and make an intention to enjoy the human experience. Pisces would love for us to move through this reality with ease, grace & joy!
The second eclipse is a partial Solar Eclipse happening on Sunday, September 21, 2025, in the sign of Virgo. This eclipse will be happening one day before the equinox making this a 29° degree eclipse. Anyone born on the 'cusp' of any sign will likely be feeling the energy the strongest (especially the Virgo/Libra cuspers).
The planet Saturn, the lord of karma, is also involved in the Solar Eclipse. This has the potential to bring the end of chapters to a lot of our lives. Saturn can represent struggle and challenge. What in your life are you SO READY to put behind you? Work with the eclipse energy to manifest an ending to any challenging periods you may have been working through. Saturn offers us a new foundation to build upon if we are willing to put the work into ourselves.
Virgo and Pisces are opposite, yet complementary, signs.
Virgo is an Earth sign related to practicality, efficiency, organization and refined skill. Virgo prefers the left brain and processes the world through logic. Scientists, engineers and people highly skilled at their craft typically have a lot of Virgo in their birth charts.
Pisces is a Water sign related to imagination, intuition, mysticism and art. Pisces prefers the right brain and processes the world through feelings. Artists, visionaries and intuitives typically have a lot of Pisces in their birth charts.
Collectively, we are moving through a time where logic and intuition, science and mysticism and the masculine and feminine polarities are trying to meet in the middle. Virgo is a sign that is anchored into the physical world while Pisces prefers the non-physical worlds. We are BOTH types of beings (physical & non-physical). You have non-physical adventures each night while you dream! Your imagination is non-physical as well.
Both Virgo and Pisces are linked to health of the human body. Virgo prefers organic, Earth-based physical medicines and healing modalities. Pisces prefers spiritual and energetic healing modalities. If you are working on healing a physical, mental or emotional ailment, consider switching up your approach to healing during this eclipse portal.
Keep your energy extra protected, cleansed and radiant in September. Your good vibes have the potential to reach further during eclipse portals. Also, consider a good old-fashioned eclipse meditation or two. The only time I've been able to tune into any of my past lives (without the help of a practitioner) is when I meditate during an eclipse!
I know things can feel bonkers during eclipses so I've left some extra time on my calendar this month for expedited readings. Send me an email if you are struggling and you think astrology may be able to help!
I'm so glad you decided to bring your divine spark to Earth.
Eclipse high-fives,
Astrologer Meredith

TLDR: a career thought experiment; Age of Aquarius energies accelerating; clients reporting "I just want to help people"; paradigm shifts expected; autumn retreat info
Age of Aquarius Acceleration
I started to ask some of my clients this year a question. It's a simple thought experiment and here it is:
If money *p**f* disappears tomorrow and you never had to worry about having enough of it ever again....
Would you go back to work tomorrow?
What's YOUR answer?
I would estimate that I get a YES to that question about 30% of the time and I get a NO about 70% of the time!
Before the Universe sent me falling down the rabbit hole of astrology, I worked in Intellectual Property (patent technology) for almost 17 years. I now call this chapter of my life a "past" life - ha! I worked on all kinds of patent applications from microchips, bio-pharma/biotech, mRNA technology, s*x toys (for real), weapons of mass destruction (for real - ouch), wireless phone technology, video game technology and more. I know in my bones I would not be able to go back to that line of work. It's not because of the work itself, or because of the money or the people. It is because, in my opinion, my former career was one based on GREED and not..... NEED. Hear me out.
A patent is given to a company (sometimes an actual inventor) which grants them the right, by country, to exclude others from making or selling their invention. I am all about recognition for hard work, I'm a Capricorn after all! However, in my former career, I saw life saving drugs and technology not being able to be created by labs that had the resources to produce them. I observed hard working inventors get a gold watch for inventing life-saving technologies while the CEOs of the company they worked for lined their pockets with profit. I saw companies spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to pay for a patent (which, really, is a 'made-up' thing)!
I now hold the conviction that the patent offices around the world should be abolished, or perhaps they can be transformed. Instead of using a patent to generate profit, could it be used to share information collaboratively on a global scale? I understand it would be an undertaking, but I do believe the consciousness of the planet is getting there to make this possible. I believe Aaron Swartz (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vz06QO3UkQ) , an Aquarius Moon, was ahead of his time in this regard before he tragically passed away in early 2013.
The Age of Aquarius energies seem to be accelerating on the planet. At least that is what I'm feeling in my body! I hear often from my clients who are unhappy in their jobs that they "just want to help people" even if they don't know how yet. I love it! Intention is the first step in manifestation and change.
What is expected (through the lens of astrology) in the next 20 years or so:
1. The world systems of GREED will be replaced with systems of NEED.
2. Success will no longer be linked to PRODUCTIVITY, but instead...PURPOSE.
3. Individual self-expression and decision making will be ENCOURAGED instead of shaming others into compliance.
4. Looking for ways we can be UNITED instead of looking for all the ways we can stay DIVIDED.
5. Doing things that feel AUTHENTIC instead of performing out of duty, obligation, or because you "should."
It was my husband, an Aquarius Moon, who said something simple to me years ago that literally changed my life. I was rattling all the things off on my to-do list one day and I was STRESSING. He just looked at me calmly and said, "You don't have to do anything" and went back to whatever he was doing. Bomb dropped! He was right! Why did I never even consider that before? Is life actually that simple? Why have we complicated it so much? A big question being asked on my social media feeds right now is: why do we have to PAY to live on a planet we were born onto?!? I have no answers or solutions, only questions at this point around this topic.
Circling back to my original question above, I answer YES. If money goes away, I would absolutely still practice astrology and give readings! I actually feel somewhat retired. My work is my joy, my passion and my purpose. I allow myself more leisure time than I ever did in my 'past' life. With a natal 29° Aquarius South Node, I know I'm here to somehow help transition the consciousness on the planet to a new way of being and living. Do you need to hop on? No, of course not! You don't HAVE to do anything! However, if you are feeling disconnected, unfulfilled or like you are 'going through the motions,' there is absolutely another way to be! I want to help everyone I can to ctrl/alt/delete their old & outdated thought programs, combat their limited beliefs and step into their true human being-ness instead of human doing-ness. If you are still reading this, perhaps you want to help to. How can you do that? Find your passion, your purpose and what lights you up! Then go do more of that thing! Everything is energy (even money). Light yourself up, love yourself even in the darkest moments and good, benevolent, positive energy will find you.
A galactic size spaceship of love being sent your way!

I began seriously studying astrology after a lifelong interest in astronomy, quantum physics, psychology, and pretty much everything eccentric. In my younger years I loved outer space! I was fascinated by the planets and was president of an Astronomy Club. I always thought astrology was limited to what I read in the horoscope section of the newspaper. After the synchronicities started to pile up, I decided to look further into what astrology was all about.
The seed was planted when I heard someone mention that their dreams seemed to change depending on where the planets were in the sky. I had always noticed that my dreams seemed to amp up at the Full Moon! Most of us have heard tales of how emergency rooms seem to be busier during a Full Moon, and that more babies tend to be born during that time. I once had a car mechanic nonchalantly tell me my car would take longer to fix since they were extremely busy due to the Full Moon. I was so intrigued! If just the Moon could have this much effect on us, what else could I learn?
After reading my first book about astrology, I was instantly addicted. I unexpectedly found astrology to be a perfect combination of all my interests and very far from what we read in a newspaper column. By studying astrology, I have gained a new understanding of how others operate and a new sense of compassion. This insight has allowed for strengthened relationships with others and a better sense of self. I have been studying and training under Moon Rabbit since 2015. Moon Rabbit is an astrologer in St. Paul with over 40 years of experience. She has been a wonderful mentor to me! I am also a member of the Organization for Professional Astrologers (OPA) and the National Council for Geocosmic Research (NCGR).
As for other tidbits about myself, I live in St. Paul with my musician husband Colin and our numerous furry companions. I am certified in Reiki as well as a Crystal Healing Practitioner. I also have an undergraduate degree in Psychology.
Astrology is a fascinating and beautifully symbolic language that we all have access to. Born wonderfully unique and amazing Earthlings, the sky provided each of us with a map. This map is unique for every person on Earth. I'd love to look at your horoscope (i.e. your map) with you! I truly believe that the outer visible universe reflects our own wonderfully complex and rich inner universe.
