This unplanned astrology update drops under the powerful July 2025 Capricorn Full Moon—just as Uranus enters Gemini and Saturn prepares to station retrograde.

In true Cosmic Alarm Clock fashion, this came up out of nowhere....and this is a raw riff on the real-time cosmic shifts shaping our collective timeline.

🌕 In this episode:

• What the Capricorn Full Moon reveals about long-term planning and legacy

• Why Uranus in Gemini (2025) is only giving us a preview—not the full story

• How Saturn in Aries, Mercury retrograde, and Pluto’s position are muting the usual Uranian shockwaves

• What this moment means for your next move—especially if you’re watching the sky for business or creative alignment

• Sunita’s take on astrology, truth-telling, and why this isn’t TikTok horoscope fluff

⚡ Also inside:

• Why Cosmic Alarm Clock might be ending—and what’s emerging in its place

• What to expect from Sunita’s upcoming astrology readings (publicly launching for the first time)

📌 This is a collective moment of pause. If you’re feeling uncertain, you’re not lost—you’re in it. Pay attention to the patterns, but don’t rush the next chapter.
