YOUR PLAYBOOK
Astrological Roadmaps spark awareness to help you make decisions and prioritize your resources. Together, we create a strategy that works for you. It will support your vision so you can Be the Change.
STEP 1. AWARENESS
First, we explore your Natal Birth Chart, which is more in-depth than the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Your Birth Chart uncovers your “astrological personality type,” including what you need from your closest relationships, why you make certain decisions, and even how you process trauma. Awareness helps you understand yourself and relate to others. Plus, your Birth Chart reveals your Life Purpose.
Beyonce was born a star…
Beyonce Knowles-Carter is a singer, songwriter, actress and successful businesswoman. Rolling Stones named her one the greatest vocalists of all time, and the world’s greatest living entertainer.
Born on September 4, 1981 in Houston, TX, Beyonce started performing in grade school. By the time she reached 16, Beyonce was already the lead singer of the popular R&B group, Destiny’s Child, which was managed by her father. After the group disbanded in 2006, Beyonce launched her solo singing career, and ventured into film. She has won 32 Grammy Awards, more than any other recording artist.
Beyonce is married to rapper and entrepreneur, Jay-Z, and she is a mother of three. While there’s no doubt Beyonce has worked hard to be one of the most notable cultural figures of the 21st century, her Natal Birth Chart suggests that her greatness is all part of her destiny. Here are just a few examples.
Your Rising Sign represents your true personality. It reflects your appearance and personal style, which also influences the way others perceive you and how you see them. Beyonce is a Libra Rising.
Libra Risings are considered irresistible, refined, artistic and charming. Their energy is like a breath of fresh air. This placement suggests that Beyonce is observant, social, creative, adventurous and ever-changing. She likely has the willingness to learn new things, and engage with new relationships and friendships.
Trademarked by the Zodiac as the “Beauty Queen,” Libras are ruled by Venus, the Planet of Love, Art and Aesthetics. This suggests that Beyonce is social, graceful, charming and even disarming.
The Midheaven (Medium Coeli / MC) is a Nodal Point typically tied to a person’s 10th House of Legacy. It reveals your professional aspirations and success, as well as your social status, reputation and public image. For example, Beyonce is a wife, mom and CEO.
Beyonce’s MC is in Cancer, which points towards the arts and helping others. This suggests that Beyonce is a very nurturing, compassionate and understanding boss, partner and mother. She doesn’t take professional criticism personally. Instead, she learns from her professional ups and downs, and grows from them.
Having a Cancer MC may also mean that Beyonce’s life purpose is to be a mom-trepreneur. She told E! Online that her kids go everywhere she goes, and that her children work with her in a variety of ways, including performing with her and appearing in her videos.
The 10th House is also about power, fame, wealth, influence, prestige and notoriety. Simply, it’s how you make your mark on the world. So if you want to know your purpose in life, look at your MC. It will show you where to set goals, and how your biggest achievements will happen.
While her kids are still young, given Beyonce grew up in family businesses, and she now has one of her own (Parkwood Entertainment), it’s likely the Knowles-Carter crew will continue to build their Legacy together as a family unit.
The North Node is another Nodal Point that represents your Life Purpose or Karmic Destiny. It’s what you were born to do in this lifetime. Same as her MC, Beyonce’s North Node also falls in her 10th House of Legacy!
Beyonce’s North Node is Leo Retrograde. This indicates a strong need to express herself authentically, take the lead, be creative and have fun while doing it. While Leo the Entertainer is ruled by the Sun, making this sign extra loud and proud, the Retrograde shows that Beyonce takes an introspective approach to her cosmic calling.
But remember, as “perfect” as this super talented megastar may appear, we all have something to work through. Directly opposite the North Node, Beyonce has her South Node in Aquarius, which is a sign known for rebellion, liberation and humanitarianism.
The South Node represents what we need to release in order to fulfill our destiny. This could mean trauma from past lives, or conditioning from childhood that as adults no longer serves us. It could be self-sabotaging behaviors picked up along the way, or it may even be things we’re naturally good at that keep us in our comfort zone and prevent us from growing and evolving.
For Beyonce, her Aquarius South Node lands in her 4th House of Home and Family. This House is attributed to parents, property, ancestors, the past and father-figures.
We know that when Beyonce started her career that her father, Matthew Knowles, was also her manager. It’s been reported that the decision to part ways was mutual. According to The Guardian, Knowles wanted Beyonce to focus on gospel music, and Beyonce believed that her father was stealing money from her.
After cutting ties in business, Beyonce went on to start her own management company, and she forged ahead with her solo career when Destiny’s Child disbanded.
STEP 2. DISCERNMENT
Next, we set our sights on the energy at play in your Birth Chart. Similar to a meteorologist or financial advisor, by assessing the position of your Houses, Planets and their Degrees, we‘ll uncover Aspects and Patterns that help “forecast” how Major Astrological transits, including New Moons, Eclipses and Retrogrades, can impact your life. Now you can get ahead of it, and use discernment to prioritize your resources – time, money and energy.
Steve Jobs was born to invent …
Apple Co-founded and former CEO Steve Jobs changed the world with his ideas and innovations. His Natal Birth Chart shows how he used discernment to prioritize what mattered to him most. Known for being logical and critical, as well as creative and egotistical, in the end Jobs wanted to leave the world a better place.
Steve Jobs was a pioneer in the technology revolution. He was a businessman, inventor, investor and philanthropist.
Born in San Francisco on February 24, 1955, Jobs was adopted as a baby. Growing up he learned through reading, music and building electronics, dropping out of college after less than a year. Not having a degree didn’t prevent him for landing a coveted role at Atari as a video game developer. Nor did it dampen his appetite for knowledge, which he continued to gain through life experiences, such as traveling to India to find spiritual enlightenment.
In 1976 Jobs co-founded Apple with Steve Wozniak in his parents’ garage. Their inventions changed how the world thinks about communications. After being fired from Apple in 1985, he launched another tech company, NeXT. Products included workstations, an operating system and web software. A decade later Jobs returned to Apple as the corporate giant’s CEO. Under his lead, Apple released game-changers, including the iPhone and iPad. Jobs was also a major shareholder of Pixar.
In 2003 Jobs was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The disease took his life in 2011. His widow, Laurene Powell-Jobs, manages the Steve Jobs Trust.
Jobs was a Virgo Rising. This Zodiac sign Virgo is ruled by Mercury, the Planet of the Mind and Communications. For a Virgo Rising, it means they are discerning when it comes to how and what they think. They’re skilled at judging well, often times through deep examination.
This behavior can make a Virgo Rising a good Healer, Analyst or Purist, “a person who insists on absolute adherence to traditional rules or structures, especially in language or style.” Wearing the same outfit on repeat was Jobs’ hack for beating what he called decision fatigue.
A Virgo Rising is also detailed-oriented, logical, efficient, studious, meticulous and modest. They are focused on perfecting systems, and can be considered perfectionists, tactful or conservative.
While they can adapt to different people and situations, as a way of protecting themselves (not being vulnerable) a Virgo Rising can redirect attention to others, either through praise or vocalizing the other person’s faults. In turn, a Virgo Rising can be very critical, petty, fussy, skeptical and even shrewd. Perhaps this is why Jobs believed asking for help is not a weakness, but a predicator of success.
2nd HOUSE OF
VALUES
Steve Job’s 2nd House of Money and Values begins in Libra, a sign that brings harmony to its committed partnerships – romantic, business and friendships.
The 2nd House is ruled by Venus, the Planet of Love, Art and Beauty. The natal sign of the 2nd House is Taurus, a fixed-earth energy that favors security. It’s purpose is to add stability to life through valued resources, like sustainable living, increasing your income, saving money and taking calculated risks on long-term investments.
According to Wikipedia, Steve Jobs was never divorced. He was married to Laurene Powell Jobs from 1991 – 2011. Powell-Jobs is a billionaire executive and philanthropist. She is the founder and chair of Emerson Collective and XQ Institute. Powell Jobs is equally innovative and ambitious. Regardless of external factors (public scrutiny; fortune) there must have been a great deal of mutual trust and respect in the marriage for it to last until death did them part.
Jobs’ 2nd House also contains Neptune, the Planet of Imagination. This points towards how and where he got inspired.
After Jobs’ death his wife, Laurene Powell Jobs assumed responsibility for carrying on his Legacy through the management of the $10 billion Steve Jobs Trust.
According to Marca, the tax-free Trust consists of 40 million Apple shares and 7 percent ownership in the Walt Disney Company. Powell-Jobs uses the funds to further philanthropic causes, including the support of social entrepreneurs and organizations working in education and immigration reform, social justice, media and journalism through her company, Emerson Collective.
This suggests that when there’s a major astrological aspect or transit, such as a New Moon in Libra, a Virgo Rising, like Steve Jobs, should be setting new GOALS around harmonizing their committed partnerships, and exploring how Taurus-ruled matters (stability through valued resources) impact their relationships to make sure they’re prioritizing their time, money and energy to achieve RESULTS.
If you also have Libra in your 2nd House of Money and Values, here are some questions you could ask yourself before setting your goals:
-
Are your finances or possessions tied to your self-esteem?
-
Do your personal finances strengthen or weaken your relationships?
-
Do your values and lifestyle align with those of your partner?
-
How are you managing your joint bank account and investments?
-
Are you speaking openly with your partner about financial matters?
-
Do you use money to control others, or do you feel controlled?
-
Is one partner earning or spending more than the other, thereby causing resentment?
STEP 3. STRATEGY
By combining Astrology with proven time management techniques and cited wellness resources, I help founders and executives find their purpose (goal) so you can [concentrate at work, fall in love, lose weight, save money, spend more time with your family]. These are results. The process involves freeing up space in your life by reviewing your schedule and daily routines. Now you can “let go” of anything that doesn’t align with your purpose, or drains your resources. It’s the strategy behind winning ROI that keeps you on track.
Patrick Mahomes was born to lead …
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is known for strategic thinking and decision-making. His Natal Birth Chart shows why this leadership style drives positive outcomes, on and off the field.
Patrick Mahomes was born in Tyler, Texas on September 17, 1995. He attended Texas Tech University, and he was the 10th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. He is the youngest player to win both the league MVP (2018; 2022) and a Super Bowl title (2019; 2022; 2024). In 2022, Mahomes became the first player in the 21st century to win both the league MVP and the Super Bowl MVP in the same season.
Mahomes married his high school sweetheart, Brittany Matthews. They have two children. He’s also the founder and chairman of the 15, and the Mahomies Foundation, as well as the co-owner of the Kansas City Current, Kansas City Royals and Sporting KC.
Mahomes works hard every day to lead by example, believing that actions speak louder than words. He’s motivated to be a good person. This is what he wants to be known for when his football career ends.
Now let’s take a look behind the helmet. When exploring a Natal Birth Chart there are several areas that suggest if a person is a strategic thinker. Capricorns, Virgos, Scorpios and Aquarians have this trait. Their methodological nature favors strategic planning. The Air Signs, Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, are also blessed with tactical gifts. Aquarians specifically help teams make better decisions and keep people focused on innovation. Mahomes is an Aquarius Rising.
Known as the Rebel with a Cause, it’s an Aquarian’s originality that helps them conquer each day. People with strong Aquarius placements in their Natal Birth Charts are constantly seeking to change things, for the good of all involved.
Both Saturn and Uranus rule this sign. Saturn is how and where you innovate. It speaks to Mahomes responsibility for humankind. Uranus is how and where you learn lessons. This placement encourages Mahomes to be unconventional.
The pairing of Uranus and Saturn in Aquarius represents Mahomes’ true personality. It suggests that he’s a natural born individualist. Someone who is always seeking the higher moral ground. It’s possible that Mahomes doesn’t back down whenever an issue involves what he believes to be a matter of principle.
Sports Illustrated reported on how Mahomes leads the Kansas City Chiefs by example, making specific note of actions speaking louder than words. In the article, Mahomes shared his belief that over time, consistency builds and shows everyone what that level of care and professionalism is.
After a loss to the Buffalo Bills, Mahomes was referenced as being “visibly frustrated” with officials. The cameras also caught a not-so-favorable exchange between him and the Bills’ quarterback after the game. But, Mahomes took accountability for his actions. He admitted allowing his feelings to get the better of him. Regarding leadership, Mahomes told the media that he’s focused on being a quality person and letting the rest fall into place. “If I can show the person I am every single day and that sets an example, that’s what I want to do when my career it over,” he said.
Mahomes’ teammate, Matt Nagy, was also interviewed for the article. Nagy said that Mahomes’ leadership style is unique because it’s based on intuition. If someone needs some tough love for encouragement, that’s what they will receive from him. If someone needs a pat on the back, Mahomes has them covered.
When Aquarians follow their inner compass, they have the power to lead revolutionary breakthroughs, socially and politically. Mahomes shows, on and off the field, that he has this capacity.
In addition to his athletic accomplishments, Mahomes has already started several entrepreneurial and humanitarian ventures. Again, he’s the founder and chairman of the 15, and the Mahomies Foundation.
In 2023, Mahomes was nominated by his teammates for the prestigious Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award. Winning the accolade comes with a $250,000 donation to a charity of the player’s choosing.
While Mahomes did not bring home this trophy, if he had, the money would have been donated to causes that support underserved youths.
Marca reports that the Mahomies Foundation has already distributed millions in grants and programs to improve the health and wellness of children and communities in need. And Mahomes’ “Volunteer for 15” program has contributed over 23,000 hours to the local community, showing his contributions extend beyond financial.
Mahomes and his wife also have a multi-year partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of America, and Mahomes has joined forces with the Make-a-Wish Foundation to fulfill the wishes of children facing life-threatening illnesses.
Another reason why I believe Patrick Mahomes was Born to Lead can be found in his conjunctions.
Conjunctions are a major aspect in a horoscope, recognized as the most powerful aspect. Mahomes has several natal conjunctions in his Birth Chart, including Pluto conjunct his Midheaven in Sagittarius.
Pluto is the Planet of Growth and Expansion. It represents how and where you hold your power, and again, the Midheaven is associated with your professional aspirations and public image. Pluto in the 10th House is associated with fame, desire, destiny and public recognition. This conjunction signifies a position of influence. It suggests that success in Mahomes’ career is essential to his self-esteem. The energy propels him to go to extreme lengths to reach the top of his chosen field, and leave his mark on the world.
This aspect can also indicate that one of your parents was an intense person, or profoundly influential in your upbringing. Mahomes father, Pat Mahomes, was a Major League Baseball (MLB) pitcher. This could explain why Mahomes was driven to become a professional athlete himself.
Mahomes’ parents divorced when he was 11-years-old. With this conjunction representing dramatic changes to your life direction or career, and the need to evolve in response to the change of circumstances, perhaps this is why Mahomes devotes so much of his resources to supporting underserved youths. The more passive, controlling or interfering his parents were, the more likely he is to use such behavior in his own life, either directly, or as an example of how not to behave.
One way or the other, having Pluto conjunct your Midheaven points toward having a strong sense of purpose, and the likelihood that you will decide your career early in life. With Mahomes determined to lead by example, on and off the field, as part of his life purpose, this conjunction suggests that if he continues to have honest intentions, and use his powers of influence openly, that his successes in life will be rewarding and memorable.
Specific
Decide what you want to achieve.
Measurable
Use data to score your progress.
Achievable
Acquire the right skills and resources.
Relevant
Align goals with existing responsibilities.
Time-Bound
Set deadlines to win your goals.
A proven system I live and breath by is the SMART Goal Methodology. The purpose is to define the results you want to achieve, and design a way to nurture consistent performance and success.
For a goal to be Specific, you need to decide what you’ll accomplish and what actions you’ll take to match your words. If you want to lose weight, you have to exercise and eat well.
To assess progress, your goal must be Measurable, whether by how much, or how well your actions are completed. If you want to buy a home by the end of the year, how much will you need to save?
This means, your goal has to be Achievable to begin with. For any action to be doable you must have the right skills and resources to make it happen. If you want to scale your business, perhaps you need to hire more employees or raise funds. This process involves examining your schedule and daily routines. It’s likely you’ll need to free up space, and reshuffle or even let go of people, places and things that are draining your time, money and energy.
Now with an investment in yourself on the line, having your goal align with your big-picture vision makes it Relevant. Otherwise, you’re the one wasting your resources! Knowing why a result is important ties back to Step 1. Awareness, when we uncover your Purpose.
Lastly, anyone can set a goal, but if it’s not Time-Bound, you’re likely not going to succeed. You need a sense of urgency. Having a target date for deliverables makes the difference.
I love using New Moons as start dates. New Moons are designed for setting intentions (GOALS). They turn into Full Moons in 6 months. Full Moons signify a culmination or completion (RESULTS).
It makes sense, right? I told you that incorporating Astrology into self-development would be efficient and edu-taining!
STEP 4. VISION
All Champions need is a sliver of hope. If you believe it, you can achieve it. But you cannot just wish upon a star. You need to put in the work. It’s a results-oriented system anchored on Togetherness. I keep you organized and on task. You commit to how you want to Be the Change. This is why “I believe” having a clear Vision that anchors a Strategy, which reverse engineers a SMART Goal that is based on Purpose, makes for a victorious Game Plan. With dedication on both our ends, you will achieve results and … Win Return on Investment.
BE THE CEO OF YOUR LIFE
Astrology makes self-development efficient and edu-taining. It levels up business and life planning by creating a blueprint of the road ahead. Let your energy to work for you.
