The world feels like it's breaking down — and according to the stars, that's exactly the point.

Traci Stein sits down with Athen Chimenti, founder of Mastering the Zodiac, to explore True Sidereal Astrology — a more astronomically precise system aligned with the actual positions of the stars. Together they examine what the current cosmic alignments are telling us about the upheaval unfolding across the U.S. and the globe. Far from random chaos, Athen makes the case that what we're witnessing is a necessary — and ancient — cycle playing out on schedule.

Pluto's 250-year return to the position it held at America's founding signals the inevitable dismantling of outdated power structures. The Saturn-Neptune conjunction is dissolving illusions we've collectively outgrown. And Mercury retrograde in Aquarius is asking us to pause, question the systems and technologies we've accepted without thinking, and reimagine what genuine community and progress could look like.

The invitation isn't to despair — it's to evolve. Both personally and collectively, this is a moment of profound restructuring — one that asks each of us to look inward and get clear on who we need to become, what we have to offer, and what kind of world we're committed to helping create.

Old systems are falling. What comes next is up to us.
