Welcome to Ghost of a Podcast. I'm your host, Jessica Lignato. I'm an astrologer, psychic medium, and animal communicator. And I'm going to give you your weekly horoscope and no bullshit, mystical advice for living your very best life.

Welcome back to Ghost of a Podcast. This week, we're looking at the astrology of March 8th through the 14th of

2026. And I just want to invite you for a sweet little moment to arrive. You may be multitasking

when you listen to this. You may be like sitting down and getting grounded. but whatever it is you're doing, I want to

invite you to consider if you know how you feel in this moment. If you are connected to yourself

in this moment, you don't have to be. I mean, life is busy, life is intense, but I want to invite

unwelcome to you, or just generally confusing for you. Cultivating your ability to ground

inside of yourself, to regard yourself as home and to tend to your home, to care for your home,

right? Because this meat suit you live in, it's the house that your spirit is living in

in this lifetime. Your internal world is a universe. you know, it is a universe. And it is

influenced by the universes around you, other people and the universe at large as we look at

with astrology. But it's hard to have access to the wisdom of your own intuition, your own lived experience,

your own convictions if you are evading and avoiding your own feelings.

And this kind of pours us into this week's forecast. As I said, we're looking at March 8th through the 14th,

but as I record this on the 7th, Venus is exactly conjunct Neptune. And on Sunday, the 8th, we have Venus
