When the Universe Says Yes | Energy & Astrology Update | Magical Michelle Orwick

The cosmos gifts us with a rare alignment as all planets move direct for the next three weeks—a phenomenon happening just once in 2025. This magical window of opportunity arrives as Venus stations direct, completing an eight-year cycle and emerging as the morning star to signal new beginnings across all facets of life.

After months of personal planets in retrograde since November, we're finally experiencing clear cosmic channels for forward movement. This is your moment to take decisive action on projects, sign important contracts, make significant purchases, or launch new initiatives without the usual planetary interference. The current Aries energy amplifies this momentum with its natural impulse toward action and courage, perfect for breaking through stagnation before we transition into the more grounding Taurus season.

What makes this period especially powerful is its alignment with the principle that 21 days creates a habit—these three weeks until May 4th (when Pluto stations retrograde) provide the exact timeline needed to establish new patterns that stick. Whether you're considering a fitness routine, writing practice, meditation commitment, or any other personal transformation, the universe offers unprecedented support for your journey. The Venus star's completion of its eight-year cycle also invites us to envision what we want to create over the next eight years, especially in realms of love, beauty, and personal values.

Ready to make the most of this cosmic green light? Consider what soul-level commitments you've been postponing, what clarity you've been seeking, and what version of yourself is emerging. This is your permission slip from the universe to move forward with confidence and purpose. What will you create during this remarkable planetary alignment?

Traveling to Egypt was a dream etched into the very core of my soul—a calling, really. I longed not just to see the ancient land, but to feel it… to walk where the ancients walked, to stand where divinity once danced, and to connect with the sacred currents that still hum beneath the sands.

That dream became a reality in the most magical way.

For my 50th birthday, I stepped onto that holy soil for the very first time. At sunrise, I stood at the heart of the Temple of Isis in Philae—my bare feet on the stones, the sky ablaze with golden light—as the sun kissed the altar. It was in that moment that something awakened in me. The air shimmered with promise, and I felt Her presence… powerful, ancient, loving.

Right there, in the embrace of the Goddess, I made a vow—to continue this sacred journey and to share it with others who are ready to walk the mystical path.

And now, the next chapter of this soul journey is unfolding.

 September 2025 — we return to Egypt. 

To the temples, to the Nile, to the portals of divine remembrance.

To awaken, to connect, and to honor the promise.

If your soul is whispering yes…

This is your invitation:

Hello friends and happy magical Monday. I'm your host. Your happy magical night. I'm your host. Your magical nightly. Magical nightly. Michelle.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 0:30

And I know it's at a different time, but I am teaching a class during my normal six o'clock hour, so I just wanted to come on here a little early. And if you're watching this live, and if you're watching this live, know that I love to see all the comments, so please feel free to comment, post and if you're watching this as a recording, I love to see who has watched and how it's resonating. So please comment, post and like and share. That's going to help me a lot get the message out out there. But this week we have something I have been waiting for all year long, which is a three-week period of time where all the planets are direct. This is a wonderful thing. It's only going to happen once in 2025 and it's right now. Over the weekend, venus went direct, and this is a beautiful thing because that means Mercury is direct, mars is direct, venus is direct. Literally every planet in the sky is direct and we've had a personal planet in retrograde since November and even on May 4th. When we have a planet going retrograde, it's Pluto, which is an outer planet. So we are now in high growth season. We are now in get it done, do it, make it happen kind of energy, and especially with that Taurus new moon that's coming up on the 28th We'll talk about that a little bit more next week. Right now we're in the shadow period of that Venus retrograde going direct and we're also in the last bits of the shadow stage of Mercury retrograde. So all of that means we might feel still a little bit of dreaming, a little bit of maybe full moon hangover from the big pink full moon this weekend.

And yet it is a time to imagine, take action and go forward without any doubt interference. It's a time to take action. It's a time to sign contracts. If you've been waiting to buy a car, a house, a new cell phone, whatever, now would be the time to go look for it. Things you've been stuck on, it might be the time to go do it. If there's been something you haven't had clarity, you'll probably get that clarity in these three weeks. And on the clarity side, I actually think right now before the 19th is going to be one of those times, because we have Aries. We're in the Aries of forward motion. Taurus is a little more luxury right Again, ruled by Venus, but Aries is action.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 3:43

So if there's something that you just need to get done maybe it's something that's been holding you back from becoming something else, like finishing things Now is a really good time to get it done, get it going. If there's something you're starting like I know one of the women I spent all weekend with in the soulmates class this weekend is starting a new exercise routine today this is the perfect time for that soul level commitment. Put it on your calendar. She said Put it on your calendar. Marissa said, as I've been talking about something that I'm planning on doing, so right now would be the greatest time to just get it on your calendar and get it done. No resistance from the planets and probably not resistance on a soul level either, and with all of that, know that we have just a few more days of that energy. I noticed there's a lighter feeling today, even yesterday, where people are like more inspired and more excited, maybe a little slow to actually do, but the brain is in that idea phase and so it's a great time for an oracle reading. It's a good time to do a divination for yourself.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 5:12

Pull a few cards. It's an amazing time to see a reader get an Akashic Record reader reading. If you are interested, I can even put you in contact. My friend Star. I have a lot of students. There's a lot of wonderful people that are doing some amazing readings right now and if it is time for you to commit to travel, now is the time.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 5:45

So I will just nudge some of you who have been going around on whether you're going to come to Egypt this year. This is the time to talk to me about the trip to Egypt. Or if you've already been to Egypt and you're looking to go to Jordan, this would be the time to finally decide. I'm going to go, this is the week to commit and I'm happy to get on a phone call with you. I'm happy to send you the itinerary. This is a very special trip. I know a lot of people go to Egypt, but we have an equinox eclipse a fall equinox eclipse on the same days as we're going to the Sphinx and the pyramids. It's really a massively perfect time to be going spiritually, mentally, physically, and the Grand Museum is now open. And for those that have never been to Jordan and Petra, this might be the only time I do this trip. So if you've been wanting to go to Petra, to Jordan, to the Dead Sea, this trip might be just exactly what you're looking for for a refresher and a renewal.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 7:06

And we're in a new season. The Venus star has completed an eight-year cycle and we now have a new star form platform. It takes eight years to make all five petals of the Venus star and we now have a brand new morning star, venus as the morning star, a brand new lunation, a brand new start to that cycle. So, if this is your time, if you're being called by the goddess Venus, to make something new over the next eight years, this is the perfect time. We have the moon disseminating to go away from the full moon for two weeks, which is a great time for review, which is a great time for review, a great time to decide what is no longer serving you and what is that vision. And a new vision always takes form of a new you. That means you're creating a new frequency, creating a new vibration, creating a new decision that you're making for yourself. And that decision says I'm going to make a commitment, I'm going to commit to the thing I've always wanted. I'm going to commit to the thing I've always dreamed of. I'm going to commit to that thing that might feel a little bit out of our comfort zone. I'm going to commit to that thing that might feel a little bit out of our comfort zone. I'm going to commit, as a sacred commitment, to living the version of me that I've always chosen to be. Now is the time, and the time is now Especially, as we can connect to that goddess, venus, as she becomes the morning star and she moves into Taurus. She loves the. Venus is ruled. Taurus is ruled by Venus. She loves being in Taurus. It's her time.

Taurus and Libra and the Taurus season is one where we see a lot of growth. We see the flowers blooming, we see things coming, spring being in its full exaltation. It's a season for food and luxury and love, and so, if you're looking for love, this is the time. The time to find it and to be open and remember self-love is the first love. Self-love is what we find inside of us, and so it is the perfect time to really love yourself. Maybe there's those personal rituals that you can commit to Going to bed earlier, sleeping in, meditating more, eating better food, walking, exercising. Maybe it's a luxury bath that you're doing. Taurus loves that little bit of extra self-care, soft things, good things, beautiful food and being around friends and family. So it might be that you're actually feeling social. For the first time in a long time.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 10:36

We have come out of our hibernation and I was walking around and seeing Lake Eola yesterday in Orlando and everybody was out. It was like everything was awake and alive. And I know it's been a little bit rainy and cold up north, but I think next week and the week after you're going to see this Venus energy coming alive, even in the Northern States, and so I do. I think that this week's energy is all about coming alive, getting excited, getting committed and just doing, just being doing and creating that routine, that practical application of living the life that you are choosing to live. And sometimes it's the practical steps, the action steps, that are being required, and that's what's happening here is we just have to do it.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 11:41

If we have been saying we need to clean our house, well, it's spring cleaning time. We're going to clean our house. If we've been saying we're going to exercise, we're going to clean our house. If we've been saying we're going to exercise, it's just time to put it on the calendar and get up a little earlier and go do it, or set a time before or after dinner and just go do it. If you've been saying you're going to write a book, you're going to put some time in your calendar to just do it. So that's what I have for you.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 12:12

This week is it's time to commit to whatever it is you're committing to and take action, because you have three weeks. It's not a long time to move something, get anchored in it, but it is just long enough. But it is just long enough. 21 days makes a habit. So if you start right now and make some of those habits, take action on some of those dreams, beliefs and feelings.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 12:39

We've been spending all this time, all spring, all winter, letting go, clearing and releasing the old. It's now time to anchor in, take action and create the new. That's where we're at, and I love it. It's one of my favorite times of year. Of course, I'm a Taurus. This is my season. I can't wait for Taurus to arrive over the weekend. You're going to feel that.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 13:13

Magical Michelle Orwick: 14:05

As you know, compassion, love and joy are what I stand for. I believe of myself to be a love leader. So this is a time to take a stand for your light, your love, your dream, your life. Now is the time.
