  • Episode 44: Let's go over the major astrological transits of July!

    Straight from my notebook:

    2nd: Neptune Retrograde begins (5 month transit)

    Mercury in Leo

    Neptune retrograde is like reality checks, refiguring your dreams, coming across limits to how you’ve been thinking. Especially because Saturn is also in the same sign here. It’s retrograding at 29 degrees and 59 minutes of Pisces which is the last minute of Pisces. Seems significant


    July 2-4: Mercury trine Neptune then opposite Pluto 

    Confusing, powerful, delusional, forceful, deep feeling, assigning meaning to something immense that may not be true


    July 5th: New Moon in Cancer

    Not too bad, but having a new moon around a holiday in the U.S. will bring a sort of stillness to festivities that may not be what people want during a holiday. New Moons are great moments of reset. To get our bearings, take inventory, and set intentions for how we’d like to move forward. In Cancer, it could concern matters of the family, home, and responsibility.


    11th: Venus in Leo (opposite Pluto)

    Persephone…. Glamour… drama


    15th-16th: Mars Uranus conjunct in Taurus

    Volatile, erratic. Injury could happen. Unexpected events and actions from yourself and others and in the world in general. Volcano kind of energy.


    20th: Mars in Gemini

    Things speed up even more as we enter the center of summer.


    21st: Full Moon in Capricorn

    Sun trine Neptune exactly

    Moon trine Mars and Pluto almost exactly

    Mercury square Uranus exactly

    Moon will move into Aquarius later in the day and conjunct Pluto. 

    This isn’t the easiest full moon of all time. There’s a certain intensity here that seems bound to push everyone’s buttons. There’s an element of surprise in the air, and it’s not a lighthearted one. There’s also an air of delusional and fantasy that could make things even more dangerous. Use caution, keep it simple, and stay to the basics right now.


    22nd: Sun in Leo (opposite Pluto)

    Same aspects as full moon apply.

    This is out first Leo season with Pluto in Aquarius (where it will remain for the next 20 years). With Pluto opposite the sun it may not feel like Leo season will be heralded in with as much passion and joy as we’re used to. There will be an intensity to this transition and the presence of Pluto will be felt. Pluto represents destruction, renewal, and power.


    25th: Mercury in Virgo

    Mercury likes to be in Virgo and you may get a little extra in your head at this time. You may notice details you were missing prior.


    End of month: Mercury Rx about to start

    Expect delays, mishaps, and errors. Plan for the “worst”. Take extra time getting anywhere. Be careful with your choice of words.

  • Episode 38: April 2024 has significant astrological events!

    Here's the breakdown:

    Mercury Retrograde: April 1st to 24th in Aries

    Take extra time when traveling and making plans. Double-check everything. Only sign contracts if necessary. Hold off on any big electronic purchase.

    .

    3rd: Venus conjunct Neptune (Pisces)

    .

    5th: Venus enters Aries

    This helps smooth out our nerves from Mercury retrograde a little bit, and helps us accept our failures and setbacks with grace.

    .

    8th: New Moon in Aries (Total Solar Eclipse)

    Eclipse conjunct Mercury and Chiron

    A critical time when things come to an end and are suddenly and severely cleared away, new paths open, very critical, harsh, could be confusing, and not immediately apparent, dealing with the self and self-concept, how we act in the world, mind going blank and new thought-forms flooding in, like the stage goes black and all the stage hands move everything around

    .

    10th: Mars conjunct Saturn (Pisces)

    Harsh, critical, self-doubt, shame, retaliation, acting out, spiritual frustration

    .

    11-12th: Sun conjunct Mercury (Pisces)

    .

    19th: Sun in Taurus

    Mercury conjunct Venus (Aries)

    This helps ground everyone a bit. Bringing us down to Earth and soothing things a little bit.

    .

    21st: Jupiter conjunct Uranus (Taurus)

    And Sun (Taurus) square Pluto (Aqua)

    This happens once every 14 years

    Revelations, new directions

    Transformation of self, pressure to change

    Big picture, world events mixed with personal events of transformation

    Technological breakthrough

    .

    23rd: Scorpio Full Moon

    T-square with Pluto

    Another intense lunation of transformation. The places of yourself that are firm and rigid are challenged to evolve. There could be an energy of doubling down on whatever path or mode you’re in. Or there could be a difficult confrontation with how everything needs to change OR that you need to accept the change and recognize it for what it is - things are different now.

    .

    25th: Mercury Direct

    .

    29th: Venus in Taurus

    Mars conjunct Neptune (Pisces)

    .

    30th: Mars in Aries

    This is great because Mars in Pisces is difficult and makes us all slower. Mars in Aries brings the energy of forward movement and action that we've been missing.

  • Episode 32: Listen to a brief overview of the astrology for January 2024! 


    Here's a little breakdown –


    First week: Mercury goes direct and Mars enters Capricorn. Full steam ahead! The energy is supportive for taking action toward goals.


    11th: New moon in Capricorn, a fertile time for meditation and intention setting as it relates to your goals.


    13th: Mercury enters Capricorn. People communicate in a more matter-of-fact and down-to-business way


    20th: The sun and Pluto both enter Aquarius. This represents an epochal shift and the dawn of a new generation that will take last until 2044. Is this the real beginning of the Age of Aquarius? There's no looking back now. Big technological/societal shifts ahead of us.


    23rd: Venus enters Capricorn. BDSM vibes.


    25th: Full moon in Leo! This is fun, especially because there's an aspect to Jupiter which makes things larger-than-life. Let go of the stubborn, self-obsessed, and vain part of yourself and embrace your warm, generous, and authentic side. This is a great time for parties and creativity.


    26th: Uranus turns direct. Hope for revolutionary action slowly begins to seem more possible.
