Ketu in Leo Is Asking You To Choose: Stay The Same Or Evolve

The word "crisis" originally stems from a Greek root meaning "decision," "judgment," or "turning point". In this episode, I explore why identity crises are one of the most common reasons people seek out astrology and how these moments serve as essential crossroads in our lives. We dive into the "Big Three" of your birth chart—the Ascendant, Moon, and Sun—and how they define your internal sense of self, your emotional adaptability, and your consistent spirit. We also discuss the major astrological checkpoints that trigger these shifts, including the current Ketu in Leo transits of 2025–2026, dasha changes, and eclipse cycles. By moving from the "sameness" of identity (Prakriti) toward the formless awareness of spirit (Purusha), we can transform a crisis into a powerful opportunity for conscious evolution.

QUOTES

“The three most common reasons that somebody comes to astrology are curiosity, clarity, or a crisis.”

“When we have an identity crisis, we need to make a choice. Do we want to stay the same or do we want to change things?”

“The eclipses are like moving into a new act of life. Our life is not three acts, but dozens and dozens of acts.”

“A lot of spiritual work is connecting to the spirit over the form—the Purusha rather than the Prakriti.”
