In this episode, Laurie guides you through the powerful shift from the introspective Year of the Snake into the bold, fast-moving Year of the Fire Horse arriving in 2026. Together we explore the collective themes of courage, movement, freedom, and accelerated change that define this rare Fire Horse energy, and how it will influence your spiritual path, relationships, opportunities, and personal evolution. Laurie breaks down what this transition means for the world as a whole and offers an intuitive, sign-by-sign look at how each of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals will experience the year ahead. Whether you’re seeking clarity, preparation, or energetic grounding, this episode helps you align with the momentum of 2026 so you can ride the Fire Horse with purpose, consciousness, and an open heart.

This episode explores what happens when the world feels unstable—socially, politically, and energetically—and why so many people are experiencing grief, fatigue, and disbelief rather than anger. Speaking from the lived experience of witnessing deep division in the United States and beyond, the podcast reframes chaos not as a failure of humanity, but as a moment of evolutionary contrast. Some individuals and systems have evolved toward heart-centered awareness, while others remain rooted in fear, control, and disconnection. That gap in consciousness creates the sense of incompatibility many feel: an inability to reconcile inhuman behavior with deeply held values of compassion, dignity, and care.

Drawing on guidance from the Ascended Masters, the episode offers a powerful spiritual context for what is unfolding. The message received emphasizes that those living from embodied light cannot cognitively or energetically map consciousness that has severed itself from the human spirit. What we are witnessing is not random cruelty, but fear of illumination—light revealing distortion simply by existing. Grief, soul-level exhaustion, and disbelief are not weaknesses; they are signs of a nervous system and soul designed for coherence, reverence for life, and relational presence. Darkness becomes visible only because light has grown strong enough to expose it, and those anchored in light are here not to understand disconnection, but to hold the frequency that makes reconnection possible.

The podcast then grounds this spiritual perspective in biology and energy anatomy, explaining that stress is not a mental flaw but an intelligent survival response that moves through the entire system. When threat is perceived—whether physical, emotional, social, or existential—the body shifts into emergency mode, narrowing perception and diverting energy away from creativity, empathy, and long-term repair. When stress becomes chronic, it affects not only the physical body, but also the etheric, emotional, mental, and spiritual layers, leading to boundary erosion, emotional contraction or numbness, rigid thinking, and a sense of spiritual disconnection. These responses are not breakdowns; they are signals that the system has been protecting itself for too long.

Finally, the episode offers compassionate, practical grounding tools designed to restore safety and coherence across all levels of being. Rather than forcing positivity or seeking instant healing, listeners are guided toward simple, consistent practices that calm the nervous system, repair energetic boundaries, allow emotions to move, soften mental loops, and gently reopen spiritual connection. The core message is clear: in times of chaos, the work is not to become stronger or more resilient, but more present. Presence restores regulation, regulation restores clarity, and clarity restores choice—allowing us to move through uncertainty without dimming our light.

What’s Up with the Energies of February 2026 is a powerful forecast for a month that doesn’t whisper—it activates. February unfolds as a pivotal turning point marked by heart-opening truth, collective reset, and forward momentum. With a Full Moon in Leo on February 1, we’re invited to reclaim creative courage, visibility, and authentic self-expression. Then on February 17, a rare convergence arrives: a New Moon and Annular Solar Eclipse in Aquarius, paired with Chinese New Year and the ignition of the Year of the Fire Horse. This is not just a date—it’s a threshold. Heart opens, timelines reset, and movement begins.

Numerologically, February carries a Universal Month 3 within a Universal Year 1, amplifying expression, communication, creativity, and purposeful momentum. This isn’t scattered energy—it’s inspired action guided by clarity. The Aquarius eclipse accelerates change around community, collaboration, and future direction, helping us release outdated roles and align with where we truly belong. At the same time, key planetary shifts—including Uranus turning direct, Mercury and Venus entering Pisces, and the approach of Mercury retrograde—ask us to balance intuition with discernment as we move forward.

A major highlight of the month is Saturn entering Aries on February 13, signaling a profound shift from spiritual preparation to embodied action. Discipline becomes personal. Responsibility moves into the realm of choice, courage, and self-leadership. Together with the eclipse and Fire Horse energy, February asks one central question: Now that you know—will you move? This episode explores how each zodiac sign experiences this activation and offers guidance for navigating a month that calls us into alignment, maturity, and meaningful beginnings.

Listen as Laurie also provides insight for each Zodiac sign.
