"I have tried so many different apps, and methods of meditation and Meditation Oasis has been my #1 resource since it was recommended to me a few years ago. Mary's voice and style are soothing and effective, and I always seem to easily find exactly what I need in the library of guided meditations. 10/10 recommend!"

- Embodied Astrology
If you are addicted to Co-Star and The Pattern, this podcast is for you! These horoscopes are so detailed; it's easy to doze off (ZZzzzz).
Something about listening to how the stars align in the universe and how energies are shifting will have you transcending into a deeper space. There is an episode for each sign and life lessons like 'Love is the Antidote to Fear.' We are addicted!
Here is a glowing review we found for Embodied Astrology:
Renee's new and full moon readings are a must if you are a follower of the moon phases for your sun, moon, and rising signs. She goes through each sun sign's monthly horoscope, meditations to help your journey, and a unique set of intentions. We HIGHLY recommend this podcast!

We keep these episodes saved!
