JANUARY 2026: BEGINNING AGAIN

I'll be revisiting a written version of Robin's Zodiac Zone by January 2026. 

Think I should stay on blogger or do you like Substack?

I'll be back on WMPG Wednesday afternoons beginning December 17th, 2025

Meanwhile ...

For December's forecast & colors, receive the newsletter by email for $22.00

For those of you who have been following all along, thank you!

My venmo is @Robin-Payton-1

Update for Summer 2025

HI Everyone,
It's been quite a while since I posted here. Thanks for bothering to check the post!
I transitioned out of studio ownership and am still teaching yoga at Breathing Room, who assumed the lease at Leaping Waters in South Portland. You might also find my classes intermittently at Greener Postures Yoga.

This summer I am doing readings by email and energy work, private sound healing or yoga for groups or individuals, and readings in person.

Contact me for information. Use leapingwatersyoga@gmail.com to get in touch about either.
Email readings are $75 and are the quickest, satisfying your questions or addressing something for you as soon as tomorrow and normally within 1-5 days (unless I'm on vacation).

Other rates vary according to our work together and generally start around $100 for a private one hour session for 1-1 people.

I email out the monthly Zodiac Zone colors. It's a $22 subscription, sent around the 25th of the month for the month ahead. Email me to add your name to the list. If you subscribe in June or July I'll add a one card reading bonus :) and you can ask a question or let it be random.
Astrologically, Jupiter is now in Cancer and meeting the Sun for positive, expansive energy as summer begins. Venus in Gemini actively shapes July 4th-30th, putting romantic flirtations, the enjoyment of being drawn to new people, creative intelligence (especially with word and ideas) and prosperity from business collaborations and alliances in the forefront.
Here's my yoga schedule and I'll also be offering Restorative Yoga & Sound Bath at Maine Yogafest on the SMCC campus on Saturday, July 26th in the afternoon. You can purchase a single ticket if you're not attending other workshops. See www.maineyogafest.com

NEW MOON, ECLIPSE CYCLE & READINGS IN THE ROUND

Here's to New Moon in Pisces, Thursday, Feb 27th 7:45 am EST. Every month I celebrate New Moon with a Sound Bath in my South Portland studio. People gather to rest while sound vibration fills the room, sometimes subtle & other times strong. I know that most of you really resonate with sound because music and radio is how we originally found each other! You can do some sound clearing at home with things you already have. Walk to the corners of your room with a bell or various bells and ring out old energy. Hang a windchime indoors in an area that feels 'funny' or never seems bright. Play some recordings of crystal bowls or flutes from your youtube or spotify.

This helps your space and your own internal vibration.

After this New Moon in Pisces, our Full Moon in 2 weeks is a lunar eclipse in Virgo, and that day, March 14th, Mercury retrograde also begins. There's no predicting what this eclipse brings, but it happens with speed and is likely to be unprecedented. The symbol is a 'LION TAMER FEARLESSLY RUSHING INTO THE ARENA'. I am taking that as hopeful because it certainly feels like we need lion tamers to be acting right now in the face of what's happening in our country. Let's hope for some heroes to step in and shift the current tides. 

Speaking of that I'd like to share some resources with you. 

If you are a Civil Servant or know someone who has been impacted by recent events, perhaps losing their job, and if you believe civil servants should be hired based on their skills not their poliitical views, find resources and info on Civil Service Strong website CIVILSERVICESTRONG.ORG

Use the 5 Calls App to to reach members of Congress. This does matter and your voice does contribute to change. The app helps you articulate what you want to communicate. That's often the hard part, figuring out what to say. You can build your own statements with the information provided. 

5CALLS.ORG

It's been quite a while since I offered readings in the round with yoga, and I'm doing exactly that on Wednesday, March 26th 6:00 -7:30 pm. We'll use crystals and cards and of course some astrology and after the group readings, we'll do a few yin postures with bolsters and blankets to support us. My intention is to ground us as the eclipses shake everything up and we need to remain centered and keep our nervous ystems and bodies balanced. This workshop is $35 and you can venmo me

 @Robin-Payton-1 (1896 phone digits)

Sign up directly on the schedule too or email me and I'll do it for you. Space is limited so everyone receives attention, space and props. Email me at leapingwatersyoga@gmail.com to reserve a space.

A group of people receive the colors of each month by email. There are some astrology insights along with the colors. If you would like this for Eclipse Cycle and Mercury Retrograde, email me today for March's colors. It's a $22 donation and you can use the venmo above or send me a check. I am not using paypal at this time. 

I hope you're navigating smoothly and if I can be of assistance with a reading, give a shout. I'm on WMPG today with more astrology and music 2:30-4 pm, also Wednesdays coming up except for March 12th when I'm on vacation.

Thanks for reading. Share any of this with friends.

Stay engaged. Believe in your power.

Robin

READINGS & EVENTS FOR ECLIPSE SEASON

 Hi Friends,
We are officially in eclipse season since last week's Full Moon in Leo. Our next Full Moon is a lunar eclipse on March 14th followed by a solar eclipse on March 29th. Like the state of this country right now, the season is ever changing, can be volatile and destabilizing, and may at times take us off guard.
My intentions with my workshops and in offering readings are ANCHORING, INSIGHT, HOPE, &  CENTERING. With self care we are better prepared to help ourselves and others, to act with intuition, and to reduce overwhelm. 

I'm working toward a new website and until then I'm using this platform, my long time blog site. Feel welcome to share it. You help support when you come to a workshop or receive a reading. You can also support by adding your name to the Colors of the Month list. I'll be sending this out around February 25th for March. It's not subscription so you can try it once and decide, for $22.
Venmo @Robin-Payton-1 (1896 phone digits to confirm) or email me to pay another way. Be sure to put Colors in the comment.

You can donate any amount, so if you're inspired to send a few more bucks, I'll automatically add you to the list for March. Or April if it's past the next email date.

Here's my regular weekly schedule and some workshops for eclipse season ~

Aerial Yoga/Decompression~ learn to decompress your spine and joints and try hanging upside down
Thurs Intro 4:00 pm, Fridays 10 am & 4:30 pm & Sun 9:30 am most weeks

Workshops & one off dates~

Wed Feb 19th & March 5th AERIAL EARTH & YOGA NIDRA 5:30-6:45 pm (lower aerial, beginner friendly)

Wed Feb 26th NEW MOON SOUND BATH, AERIAL OR MAT 6:00-7:00 pm

Sat March 8th AERIAL YIN & SOUND BATH w/ SEASONAL TEA 1:30-3:00 pm
Wed March 26th YIN YOGA W/ CRYSTALS & CARDS 6:00-7:30 pm (mat class w readings)

All classes are listed and furthered described at www.leapingwatersyoga.com
Sign up on the schedule. Sign ups cannot be canceled, like event tickets, but you may send a friend if you can't attend. I would really love to see you in person this season.

For virtual eclipse season readings, sent to your email, contact me by email at leapingwatersyoga@gmail.com or robinivy88@gmail.com

I am currently open for multiple readings and inspired to get started this week. If there's a time sensitivity on your reading, I may be able to expedite it.

Thank you!
Robin

January Readings-3 openings & Winter Events

 Hi Everyone,

I have time for 3 readings which I'll send within the next week or so. Email leapingwatersyoga@gmail.com to request one. Please prepay with paypal or venmo to secure your spot.

Venmo @Robin-Payton-1 (1896 phone digits)

Paypal robinivy88@gmail.com

Readings are currently priced intentionally 'low' at $75. Take advantage while I can offer this. A usual price would be about 2/3 more. For a reading, also send any question or area you'd like insight about. If you want, also send your birthdate, place and time, as much as you  know.

I'm no longer using facebook and plan to completely eliminate my account at some point. YOu can still find me on instagram for now @robinivypayton

I'm on BlueSky and feel more confident and secure on that platform. Try it and find me at 

@robinivyradioyoga.bsky.social

I may at some point start a Robin's Zodiac Zone account on BlueSky, a more socially conscious site.

It's all sort of inconvenient, but I think it's time to embrace change and try my best to separate from anything less than a clean, clear social media space.

I'm going down in my initial cost of monthly color of the day subscription. If you'd like to receive February colors and some astrology insights by email, send $22 to robinivy88@gmail.com on paypal.

Please send it by January 25th, this Saturday to receive the February forecasts. You do not have to start a recurring payment or subscription, just be sure I know your email address. Paypal should take care of that, but to confirm, feel free to email me.

New Moon Sound Bath is Wed,Jan 29th 6 pm in my studio, with Rachel Rivera, and Full Moon Yoga Nidra is Wed, Feb 12th with me.

I'd love to welcome  you in,

Thank you and all my best to you!

Robin

Owl's Message & Shamanic Yoga with Spirit Guide Journey Oct 23rd 6:00 pm

I woke with a message to channel owl this morning exactly at 6:00 am

I went through some photos from Karl Ramsdell and I feel this message is from snowy owl but I am also posting his photo of great horned owl. Both are resonating in different ways with messages that are extensions of each other. 

Beginning with Snowy...who speaks of a fresh perspective and lens you can bring into your life. Snowy says on this Libra/Scorpio cusp,  October 23rd, enter a time of looking for the magic in life again. Refresh your perspective and approach the matter at hand by freeing yourself of preconceived ideas. Sit above the situation rather than in it for a day or two. Contemplate two things. One, how is this matter and the internal processes and feelings it creates, extraordinary? The magical powers of healing are taking place. Not all our life experiences are what we would choose, and that's part of being alive. Even in circumstances that feel urgent, traumatic or impossible, remarkable and super-natural forces are at work for you. 

If life is mundane and stagnant, gift yourself an inspiring book of magic or an intuitive reading or energywork to clear and inspire you along your path.

Great horned owl says he/she is the master of finding hidden information or things that are elusive or were put away in too good of a hiding place. The timing is right and opportune to. either randomly or with intention, unearth the item or puzzle piece. Take time to study it once you do. And then if a further action is needed, you will know how to proceed. Also, do not trust the surface of situations and people and look/feel much deeper, trusting your instinct more than what you are told & what you are seeing. This is a time to ask for information and answers, revisit an investigation, clean the attic out, open a box that has been closed up, find the right person for the job, and engage in self inquiry and study that will bring out the answer to your quest.

The final guidance from the owls is to write down your intentions or questions and study the words. Read and reread what you have written and see if answers fly before your eyes.

Tonight 6:00-7:30, you can join me to delve deeper and more personally as we open our connection to spirit guide messages at Leaping Waters. Register at www.leapingwatersyoga.com/schedule-classes

The energy exchange is just $33

Parking is plentiful and free

146 Ocean Street South Portland, Maine

Come to the door at the back end of the parking lot to enter.

LUNAR ECLIPSE MEDITATION & VIRTUAL READINGS

Hi Everyone,

Eclipse season is here now and this often precipitates and accelerates changes. It's a great time to let go and see what the universe has in store. Post mercury retrograde, we are now in a cycle of dynamic movement and decisions. Even undecided, you may find things line up and make the next steps obvious.

On September 15th, Floating Full Moon Yoga Nidra is in person at my South Portland, Maine studio.

Choose to rest on the mat with props to support, or in an aerial hammock. The schedule is clearly labeled, so click on your option of choice. I'll focus on Pisces themes during this guided meditation.

www.leapingwatersyoga.com/schedule-classes

I have space for 5 Full Moon readings you will receive between Wednesday, Sept 11th and Wednesday, Sept 24th. To order a virtual reading which you receive by email, paypal to robinivy88@gmail.com or venmo @Robin-Payton-1

$88 channeled reading with symbols, animal messages, tree or crystal totem, tarot as it comes individually for you

$108 channeled reading plus astrology chart reading for Sept/Oct eclipses

For the astrology component, send your birthdate, time and place and where you spent the most recent birthday (town, city, state, country)

For either or both readings, send any questions or areas of interest to you such as relocating, job change, relationship or other. I'll do my best to draw down some information and insight you're hoping for.

If the 5 readings fill, I will extend dates and let you know where you are in the queue

I would love to welcome you to Leaping Waters sometime! Come for yoga, sound healing, yoga nidra or prenatal yoga this fall.

I hope your season is full of love,

Robin
