## Resource

Jeff Hinshaw welcomes astrologer and author Lars Stars (Lars Mellis) into an intimate, at-home conversation recorded at Jeff’s home in Palm Springs while Lars’ visits from Los Angeles. The episode opens with a cozy, personal tone (dog underfoot, signed copies of Your Personal Horoscope 2026 freshly picked up from Barnes & Noble( and situates the discussion around reflection and nourishment. Lars shares his background as a certified professional astrologer deeply embedded in the LA astrology community, his Sagittarian-heavy chart, and the vision behind his new book: a month-by-month guide for 2026, complete with a unique totem archetype for each zodiac sign. The conversation moves into a lively rapid-fire round (Lars is the new reigning champion of Cosmic Slip N Slide, answering 13 questions in 60 seconds) and then deepens into the major astrological themes of 2026, which Lars names in our conversation as “the year of confronting reality.” Key transits include the Saturn–Neptune conjunction in Aries, Jupiter’s opposition to Pluto as it enters Leo, Uranus moving into Gemini, and a strong Aquarius–Leo axis emphasizing voice, power, and collective change. Jeff and Lars outline each sign’s 2026 totem—from Aquarius as the Spokesperson to Virgo as the Exorcist—framing the year as revolutionary, catalytic, and demanding honest self-reckoning. The episode closes with invitations to engage the book, reflect on personal totems, and stay connected through community, activism, and shared astrology as the new year unfolds.
