This week, Laurie explores how to move beyond fear, reclaim your agency, and become solution-oriented during times of rapid change. Inspired by the legacy of Gloria Steinem, she examines why imagination is an act of courage, why presence is a form of resistance, and how astrology becomes far more powerful when used as a tool for observation rather than prediction.</p><p>Laurie also shares a reading of her new essay, <strong>&quot;Astrology Deconstructed,&quot;</strong> answers a listener&#39;s question about using astrology for career decisions, reviews recent prediction highlights in <strong>The Ralph Report</strong>, and closes with guidance for this week&#39;s Virgo New Moon.</p><p><br></p><p>Show Links:</p><p><a href="https://www.lulu.com/shop/laurie-rivers/2027-prepared/paperback/product-e7qvj54.html?page=1&pageSize=4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">2027 Prepared: Astrology Based Planner &amp; Workbook </a></p><p>Awake Space Magazine <a href="https://theawakespacepodcast.com/posts/september-2026-168815229?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">September 2026</a></p><p><strong>00:00</strong> Light your torch: Choosing hope over fear<br><strong>09:00</strong> Reading <em>Astrology Deconstructed</em><br><strong>43:30</strong> Gloria Steinem&#39;s astrology and legacy<br><strong>50:08</strong> Career timing: Can astrology help you choose your next move?<br><strong>57:07</strong> The Ralph Report: Recent prediction highlights<br><strong>1:04:42</strong> This week&#39;s global forecast<br><strong>1:17:06</strong> Virgo New Moon intentions and practical guidance</p><ul><li>Why presence is your greatest source of personal power</li><li>Gloria Steinem&#39;s lasting influence and what comes next</li><li>Rethinking astrology through observation instead of determinism</li><li>Breaking inherited beliefs and cultural conditioning</li><li>How to use astrology to make better decisions</li><li>Forecast highlights for the week ahead</li><li>Virgo New Moon journaling prompts and intention setting</li></ul><p><strong>Knowledge isn&#39;t power unless you know your next step.</strong></p><p>In This Episode</p><p></p>
