Welcome to Dark Night of the Soul 2025. My name is Jay Bowie. I'm happy to be your host for this segment of the evening.

We're going to get started with acknowledging that Dark Night of the Soul is a winter solstice celebration of art, music, and crucial conversation that help us explore the shadow.

We're going to get started with a few different things.

So first, we're going to get into the astrology forecast,

followed by a screening of a film,

as well as the WackBazaar's Inemission Quayagery Competition.

Yeah, it's going to be a really great evening,

so thank you so much for being here both in person

and online if you're joining us.

So without further ado, I wanted to introduce the embodied astrology conversation that we're about to have. So as we wrap up yet another wild year of one of the wildest

decades we've experienced in our lives, let us compost the path and forecast into the

light of the future. We are shifting from the year of the snake

to the year of the horse from shedding to forward action. With 2026 on the horizon, we are shifting

from a nine year to a one year, which is really appropriate for all of the Ares energy that's

going to be hitting us at the top of the year.

Okay.

So, I am joined in this forecast with a great friend of mine, an amazing second-generation

embodied astrologer and founder of embodied astrology, a gathering and resourcing place for

astrologers and astrology lovers to cultivate and practice,

intuition, and embodiment through multidisciplinary study with the cosmos.

Please join me in welcoming Renee Seale.

Hey, Renee, how you doing?
