Jupiter: growth, abundance, wisdom, expansion.

On August 5, 2025, I entered my Jupiter Planetary Phase of the year. We all have 7 planetary phases that we traverse through every year. Although the 52 day periods follow the same pattern - Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune - how we experience them is individual to each and everyone of us; according to the day we were born. Jupiter is the planet of growth, abundance, wisdom, and expansion. It represents opportunities for learning, spiritual development, and past life experiences. My Jupiter period runs from August 5 - September 25.

August and September have traditionally been challenging months for me on all levels. Astrologically, August is home to the Leo and hosts the Lion’s Gate Portal on 8/8 and they bring the FIRE! As a Water sign, August tends to evaporate me rather quickly if I am not careful. I typically encounter obstacles that show up in the form of physical illness or troublesome relationships during this time. In the past, many life expanding events have happened in my Jupiter period. The most prominent being the fire that took our home in 1998, the death of my GG in 2010, and the death of my Father in law in 2020. August and September has always thrown obstacles in my path, but for some reason I would always stand at its inception with hope.

It wasn’t until I started to do InSight Reports for myself that I began to understand the repeating frequencies that I experienced throughout my life. Although I did not experience the same scenarios and situations, the same feelings would make their appearance during certain times of the year. As I dove deeper into the planetary periods via my InSight Report, I was able to not only identify repeating vibrational patterns, I was able to start choosing to shift those frequencies.

Prior to this year’s Jupiter period my Higher Self evidently had plans to help me shift my vibration, and although I was a part of the decision, I never saw what was coming! While in the early part of my Mercury Period (March 2 - April 22) an opportunity to expand all parts of me presented itself in the form of a retreat in a place that I had never been, with a group of people that I never met! Of course it happened in Mercury! Mercury is associated with communication, intellect, knowledge, and adaptability. It represents the mind, how we think, learn, and share thoughts. It was during Mercury where the seed was planted for the beautiful Na’au Pono Retreat in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Mercury is known as the messenger of the Gods. So I learned that if an opportunity presents during this time, pay attention because there is deep wisdom to be gained. As the fastest moving planet in the solar system, events that happen in Mercury do so quickly, and before I knew it, I was booked to present my Energy Shifting modalities at The Red Shoes Spiritual Center.

Fast forward to my Jupiter period of 2025, specifically August 5, 2025 when the magnitude of the experience finally hit me. It was two days after the retreat at The Red Shoes concluded, and we were taking the ten plus hour road trip back home to Tennessee. My heart was full, I was still on an energetic high, and I could still hear and see the faces of the beautiful women that I met and the connections that we had made. My frequency was soaring and my conscious mind kept replaying tidbits of the magical weekend. Interactions, conversations, connections, learning, sharing, and experiencing all on one continuous hypnotic loop. During the road trip back home, I started to mentally and physically experience the shift that I had created not only for myself, but for all those who plugged into my energy during that time; including those who were not physically present in Baton Rouge! Over the next few days, I began to understand the magnitude of the choice that I made that day in March.

From the moment we drove into Louisiana, it felt like I belonged. It felt like home. Every part of me resonated with the energy there and OMG THE TREES! Y’all know that I am a sucker for a good tree and let me tell you, I found me some magical trees to hug! The energy was so welcoming, and it felt like I knew everyone that I met. Now…… I have experienced some pretty crazy stuff in this lifetime, but this was NEXT LEVEL! The deja vu was on high. From people I met at the retreat to people passing by as I walked into a restaurant. It felt like walking down the hallway of a place that I had frequented all my life, and everyone knew me. From the boy who served us the very best beignets at Morning Call in New Orleans, to the woman in the little clothing boutique in the Garden District…..I felt like I belonged.

After returning home and the next few days unfolded, I worked through energetic hangover issues, glitches in systems, and physical symptoms of fatigue. It was then I felt the full impact of Mercury still in retrograde, the 88 portal, and the Full Moon in Aquarius all culminating in the perfect opportunity to put a HUGE bow around this majestic shift. On August 9 with the Full Moon at it’s peak, I was tested to see just how attached I was to expectation. From the never ending to do list, to getting back on my workout routine, and serving my clients and customers…..The Universe brought it all to a halt and said JUST STOP! And so I did….. Feeling physically depleted and energetically drained, I cancelled all of my clients for the day, tended to my physical frequency, and just relaxed. It was hard at first and then all the Signs and Synchronicities unfolded to assure me that just as it was right to take the leap with The Red Shoes, it was the right thing to do in that moment. So I listened.

I am grateful for all who have participated in this growth and expansion of my soul and look forward to continuing this journey of evolution with those who are meant to walk this path with me. A special mahalo to The Red Shoes and all the women who gathered with me for this beautiful shift!

August, the 8th month of abundance, and 9th day of endings in 2025 (a 9 year) screamed “LISTEN”! “When you listen, Dina, all falls into place as it should be.” Listening and making the choices which have created the shifts we are experiencing now is nothing short of pure magic.

Hugs + Health
