Oh, welcome to another episode of the Drunk Astrology Podcast. And I have a question for you. What if I told you that one of my astrology coaching clients used a release date that I chose based on her birth chart and the current planetary transits and went on to win a friggin' Grammy? Well, it's the truth. And in today's episode, I actually have two clients, both singers, very different realities. However, the thing that connects both of them is that I used their charts and the planetary transits to choose the dates at which they would launch projects that meant the world to them for very different reasons and in various levels or experiences in their career. And you know what the best part is? That the point of this episode is not if you're a singer, use astrology to pick your launch dates. It is actually how alignment and timing and success work together in choosing when you do something, when you put forth effort towards something that means a lot to you, how when you time those efforts, success becomes easier. The process becomes more seamless, not effortless, because using astrology to pick things like release dates and offer, like when you release a new offer, when you launch a course, when you start your new mastermind, when you decide when your next open house is gonna be, it does not eliminate the work required for you to be successful. But what it does do is open the path for success to find you simpler, easier, and more often than not, even better than you think is possible. So a lot of people will focus on what they're doing, what they're launching. Some people will end up focusing too much time on how they're gonna launch it, the strategy behind all of their efforts, right? And timing is a key part of your strategy. But when you're too in the weeds focusing on how launch is gonna happen, that's where things get a little iffy and dicey. And almost no one focuses on when they're launching in terms of astrological timing methods. And that's mainly because you don't know. And you don't know what you don't know, and that's exactly what we're gonna solve today. We're gonna solve that problem because once you know this, you never have to put forth effort towards anything that you really care about in a way that is just very poorly timed. And if you're not tracking astrology every single day like I am, then you know that becomes like, uh, well, how am I supposed to know? Well, that's why people like me, astrologers like me, exist on this planet to help you in moments like this, right? So picking the best wedding date, picking the best times to announce your open house, launching your next mastermind, reworking, renaming, and revising a course that you put put out like eight years ago, when to actually reconfigure all of that and then reintroduce it to the world. This is what this episode is really, really about. And no, astrology didn't write the songs, record the album, or win the Grammy. But what it absolutely did do was help us choose the perfect moment to introduce that work to the world that aligned with my clients' intentions, and so that's what we're gonna discuss right here, right now, and we're not gonna waste any more time. We're gonna get right on to it. Because the biggest mistake that people will make is and uh what both of my clients in this case almost did was just listen to well, industry standards are that you release a new album on a Thursday. That is that's the industry standard, and in both instances, this would have been a huge mistake for the Grammy winner and for the independent artist who was reintroducing herself to her peers, her community, her industry. Uh both of them would have been at a severe disadvantage had they just followed industry standards. And that's because I was looking at their charts and saying, listen, I know you want it to be a Thursday. And now for one, it worked out, but for the other one, we did not go with a Thursday. So besides them, a lot of people will just like choose random launch dates, or they'll just follow trends that they see on Instagram and on TikTok. And it's really unfortunate because like the trends do not have longevity, right? The trends are great for you know visibility, getting eyes on you, eyes on your content. But the trends aren't gonna be what really speak to long-term success, which is what we want to use astrology for, right? We want to plant seeds with your efforts that won't just be like a hit and quit. Like, what good is that? You know, unless your intention is to hit and quit, and then like then that's a whole nother discussion, and we we look at that in your chart. Fun story. I actually feel like Adele has a an astrologer because I have tracked how she does album launches and then how she'll tour them or do a residency, and then she like disappears forever. And I have a whole theory on her having an astrologer because there's always there is a there's a a connector with her releasing albums on eclipses, and eclipses do bring this like mass appeal, mass success, and then like the roller coaster dip, like you know, then she gets to like bow out. So, Adele, if you ever happen to hear this, we need to know do you work with an astrologer and have you intentionally chosen eclipses to launch your albums? Because your boy has a theory. And if not, let's talk. I mean, can you just imagine spending two years creating something amazing and then introducing it to the world on just some like completely random day? Like, that would be a huge disservice, right? So just think about something that you're really passionate about. Think about your career. Think about, you know, like if you've got like an Etsy store and you know, you're trying to make sales and you're used to being like, oh, the summertime is slow, and like, oh, I I always do best at the holidays, and then miss all of these other like ripe opportunities, the other like nine months of the year when people are shopping, because everyone's shopping, and like missing all these like delicious opportunities that are written in your chart, right? You know, so or like the costume designer who's like gonna first do her first collection or her first show in some way, and like it be this new venture that you're opening yourself up to, and then like just choosing some like random industry standard day that actually does not pair well with your chart, you know, or the real estate agent who's like, Oh my god, I just left my corporate job and now I'm gonna like list my first house. Gosh, I hope people show up, and instead, we could be looking at your chart and going, like, okay, here's what you're gonna do. You're gonna do it on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday because Venus is in perfect alignment in your seventh house as like a random option, right? Because what I don't want you to fall into the trap of is just planning a launch or you know, having some kind of strategy towards, you know, some project that means a lot to you, but never actually consider the timing of it because your birth chart literally is your personal timing hack. It literally will tell you and show you. Now, to you, it might look like hieroglyphics, but to someone like me, it's all, you know, it all makes sense, you know? You know, you basically become a hieroglyphic interpreter when you become an astrologer. Sounds crazy, but it's true. So let's talk about, let's do the the Grammy award winner client first. Now, whenever I help plan any kind of launch dates, release dates, etc., I always start with one question. It doesn't matter who I'm talking to, whether it's the independent artist, whether it's a Grammy Award-winning famous celebrity artist. And that question is, or if it's a realtor, or if it's a therapist, a lot of my coaching clients are all there are a wide spectrum of people with different career paths and everything. But when we pick dates for certain things, my one question that stands it's what I ask all of them. My god, Graham, use your words, is what's your intention? What is your intention for this album? In this case, in this episode, we're gonna be using these two artists. And the Grammy winner said, I want to share my healing journey, and I want it to, and by sharing my healing journey, I want to also help my fans heal on theirs. And so that right there was all I needed to do. That's all I needed to know to then look at her chart and decide exactly when the best date would be to land on that intention, right? Because it wasn't about selling two million copies, it wasn't about winning a Grammy, it wasn't about accolades, it was I want to share my healing journey, and by sharing, I want to help heal my fans on their journey. So after looking at her chart, now we we have been working together for some time at this point. So after looking at her chart in this way with this intention, I decided to pick the day that Chiron, the wounded healer, I mean, can you already hear it? The day that Chiron stationed direct, not only because Chiron stationed direct that day, and Chiron has this huge emphasis on healing and turning our pain into wisdom. Not only was Chiron stationing direct, but it was also beautifully aspecting key planets in her chart. And if you've been here a while, you know I love the moon. Oh, and you know I love the moon phases. The day that Chiron stationed direct also landed the day after the Aquarius full moon, and full moons are great for putting something out. And Aquarius is that energy of to be received by a big group, a large audience, right? So pairing those two together, you know what ended up happening? It landed on a fricking Thursday, and had she just gone with like what industry standard was, she was gonna choose just a random ass Thursday. And not in my world. Oh, we don't do that. And because we chose the date we chose, and she put it out, it was well received by the masses, as we could indicate from the Aquarius full moon impact. We saw, like literally in the first week, because I was, of course, all up in her comments, like looking at like what what fans were saying, and the wide received message that was just like over and over and over again was that this album had healed them in special ways. I mean, people were saying it in all their various different circumstances and how they related to you know the content of the album, and then lo and behold, the album wins a freaking Grammy. Now, that is one that this is one way, right? And one client scenario where it was like bam, here's alignment, here's timing, and here's your unique imprint, right? Using your birth chart as what I call your cosmic DNA, your timing blueprint for major moments and major projects that mean something to you. No, it didn't write the album, you know. No, it didn't, you know, replace the marketing team that's required behind, you know, an artist of this size, but it pulled all of those efforts and energies together and said, this is when you have the best shot at prime success and not just for you know a little bit of time. This stood the test of time and over a year later earned a Grammy. You know what I mean? That's where we're looking to use astrology for longevity of success, not just hit and quit, unless, like I said with Adele, I feel like there is intention around, like, look, I want to drop this and then I want to like do a quick little tour, and then I want to go be with my family, right? Like, because that's a different intention, right? This client, my astrology coaching client, did not have that intention, right? Healing was her intention, and we aligned healing with mass appeal to make sure that like this was a very big moment for her, for her fans, and the trajectory of her career. Chef's freaking kiss. Now, to contrast this, then earlier this year in 2026, I meet an independent artist who knew that I was an astrologer, knew that I, you know, have been a professional dancer and I've been a movement director and an assistant choreographer, and I've been in the industry forever. And she was not a Grammy artist, you know, she wasn't on a major label, she didn't have a huge budget, but what she did have was a project that she had been working on for almost a year, her debut album. And she wanted to make sure that this was like her moment, right? Like she wanted to really reintroduce herself as her own artist and step out from behind supporting other artists, right? Like she had been a background vocalist for over 10 years. She had developed a little bit of a fan base because she was on the voice. She was on Kelly Clarkson's team, and she really wanted to be like, look, like, yes, you've seen me sing background for like all of the stars that you love, but I have a story too, and I have a voice too. I have stories that I want to tell in my own unique way. And so when I asked her, you know, what's your intention for the album? That's when she told me. I want to, I want to reintroduce myself. I want to be seen as my own artist, and I want to be outside the shadow of the artist that I support. And so I was just like, great, well, I can do a lot with that. And so with this artist, this client, I was dealing with a Libra sun and a Taurus rising. Both signs are ruled by Venus. And so I knew that I needed Venus to be in a strong position. I needed Venus as a planet to be well aspected. I needed her to be prominent in my client's chart. And what I ended up doing was not just choosing the day that Venus was in a delicious conjunction to her own, her natal Venus in her chart. Oh, no, no, no, no. I narrowed it down to the day, which was a Wednesday, not the industry standard of Thursday. Because, like, my God, I was like, look, I I've heard all the industry standard stuff before, let me tell you, not the mood when you're working with your own timing system, right? When when you really want to be your, like, when you have the intention that you have, like, you're gonna want to like be open, right? And she was, thank goodness. There was no pushback on that. But I didn't just choose the day, I didn't choose a Wednesday that was just random. I chose a seven-minute time frame, the exact window of time that this album needed to be released. And now there's a number of reasons why, and that would make this episode way too long, but there's a number of very astro nerdy reasons why I chose this seven-minute time frame. And let me tell you, she followed the strategies that I gave her to a T. Not just the timing window, but also like the ways in which she would sell her album. And guess what? She made more money in five days than she had in 10 years of streaming her music. And now at this point, that I'm from when I'm recording this episode, we're looking at at this point, I think we're about two and a half months later. She has more than doubled album sales from when she first launched, meaning she's made like literally like probably five times, maybe even six times, the amount of money than she's ever made in over 10 years combined. And then the best part, because I got this little tidbit from her recently, she is on tour in Europe, singing background with another artist, and guess what? That artist found out that she had her own album, she had her own project. And she gave her a spot in her set to sing her own music and to promote her own album. Now, this is when I say using astrology not only makes success, I mean basically inevitable, not only that, it makes it simpler, it makes it easier, and even better than you even imagine. I have toured the world with some of the biggest singers, artists on the freaking planet. And that's not even, you know, me being hyperbolic. I have. And when I tell you, they are not, they're not the people that will just like donate time of their own show for another artist on their stage to promote their work. That is highly, highly abnormal. And yet, this client, this independent artist, has not only been financially successful, more so than she has in the 10 years that she's been doing this without strategically timing her launches, but she goes on tour with another artist, and the other artist is like, oh my God, you got your own album? Like, here, sing some of your songs, promote your album, sell your album in my show. That right there, not only is that a class act, that is what I mean when I say even better than you imagine. That's the kind of these are the kind of pathways that you open up when you strategically plan and time launching projects that matter to you, the efforts that matter to you, the the dates, the weddings, the launches, the masterminds, the courses, the open houses, the new endeavor that you're doing, the new Etsy shop, the you know, your new collection. This is the magic of using your birth chart and the current planetary transits. Like, I mean, do you get more chef's kiss than that? I don't think so. And so what this story, uh what both of these stories really uh teach here is that I mean, it's not really it's not about music. And like for each of my clients, it's about their music for sure. But the thing that connects you to these stories is you have your own timing blueprint, aka your birth chart. Alignment is different for everyone because everyone literally has a different birth chart, including twins, and your intention, whatever intention you want to set for a launch, and an effort, a project, etc. That's how you can use your chart. Now, you probably you know will be like, Well, I don't know how to do that. Well, that's all right. That's why astrologers like me exist. But that's the point of these two stories. Timing, completely different, alignment, totally different, and the intentions completely different. However, using their individual chart and the planetary transits led to massive success. One was more like obvious and very well known because it's a celebrity. And the other, personal success like broke through barriers that she had not been able to break in over 10 years. This is why I do what I do. So if you're a coach launching a new program, if you're a realtor listing homes, if you're creating courses, if you've got an Etsy shop, if you're an author, if you're a speaker, if you're a service provider in some way, if you are what I call a spirit gangsta, a spiritual entrepreneur, don't take random action because the universe is dying to support you. But you gotta work with your own mechanism. You've got to work with your own blueprint, your own cosmic DNA, which is your natal birth chart. Okay. So to reiterate, to just bring us home, astrology isn't replacing the hard work. Astrology is definitely not replacing the talent. It's definitely not replacing marketing efforts. But what astrology is doing is identifying favorable timing windows. It is helping align your actions with intentions, and it's helping to amplify your efforts. All right. So astrology is not going to necessarily make a bad idea an epic success, but it can absolutely help a great idea, a great project, a great course, a great house, etc., reach more of the people that it's meant for. So I ask you, dear listener, you know, the question isn't like whether you your next launch will happen or your next, you know, the next moment in your therapy business will happen. The question is whether you're gonna launch it randomly and just kind of like free willy-nilly, or if you're gonna be strategic about it. So you protect your effort, your hard work, and ensure that it's cosmically just interwoven with success codes all in that bitch. That's what we're looking for. So whether you're launching a course, you're listing a home, you're releasing an album, you're opening enrollment, you're announcing a retreat. Raise your vibe retreat in 2026. By the way, we have two private rooms left. We're going to the Outer Bank September 30th through October 4th. Book your spot. Publishing a book, I digress. Whether you're publishing a book or just finally putting your individual work out into the world. Your birth chart contains the timing opportunities that most people will just either go through life and never know, which, you know, no one's wrong for that. It's just so sad. But you're here, and now you know that this is the magic of astrology, right? I mean, I can tell you that, oh boy, like pre-pandemic times, I remember working with clients who were going through a divorce, and just for like curiosity's sake, I went to look at their wedding date, and I went, yeah, yeah. Unfortunately, like this was poorly timed, like, not good at all. Like, we we we don't want that. You know, like, damn, it's a shame. I mean, you know, I did end up, you know, coaching her through a divorce, and she got exactly what she wanted. I mean, she was almost gonna burn it all to the ground, and I, you know, we it was a very different story. The intention was very different, but that's a story for another time. But astrology did help in that case, because boy, it was, it was, it was not looking good. And turn that ish around to this day. I I usually get like an annual message from that client that was like, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. I don't have to worry about all of the things that I was worried about and like my kids are happy, like, yay. So, you know, even things like divorces, you know, can be enhanced from an astrological standpoint because again, it's all about in timing and it's all about intention. So if you want help identifying the most strategic timing for your next launch or your next effort, some project that really means a lot to you, then send me a DM on Instagram. Just like send me the word timing. That's all. Just send me timing and we'll talk about your goals. We'll talk about your birth chart, and we'll talk about like the best ways that you and I can work together to make your desired outcome, whatever that is, an inevitable success. Yeah? All right, that is it for me. Have a great freaking day, night, morning, afternoon. Whenever you are pressing play on this, have a great freaking day. And until next time, I'll see you later on the Drunk Astrology Podcast. Bye.
