Mars in Taurus
Mars has been at home in Aries for 6th months because its retrograde timeline is about every two years (this means Mars will be direct until late October 2022). Mars represents our drive and anger, and its stay-cation in Aries made some of us feel cagey, impulsive and make rash decisions—like trying to open schools and businesses without a game plan.
Saturn & Jupiter Conjunct in Aquarius & Winter Solstice
Now, that Jupiter has moved out of the heavy energy of Capricorn, it can breathe a bit better in the airiness of Aquarius! (Apparently, I’ve woken up on the rhyme side of the bed this morning!) We also have to remember that with the traditional ruler of Aquarius—Saturn moving in, it could be easier to take our ideas and make them reality. Just watch out for the “hive-mind” though.
New Moon and Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius
The eclipse is connected to the lunar eclipse we had on Dec 1st in Gemini, and the midpoint of a three-cycle eclipse that hits Gemini and Sagittarius until December of next year. Again, Gemini is how we learn and communication, while Sagittarius is higher learning and how we share it. With the solar eclipse in Sagittarius it’s the “Hero’s journey” or call to adventure….
Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Gemini
This full moon/lunar eclipse in Gemini at 8º, hit us in the wee hours of the morn, and is the second part of the Gemini/sag eclipse cycle that started in June 2020 and ending December 2021. Click through to dive deep!
Happy Friday the 13th!
Happy Friday the 13th! It's a day to celebrate the Goddess, Freya, and the wonders of creation. Today also happens to be the day that Mars goes direct after a two month retrograde in Aries. Venus is also in Libra, opposing Mars. It’s a day when the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine can come together to find balance. Also, when I say Divine Feminine or Divine Masculine, that doesn’t mean gender, cuz we all have both energies.
Sun in Libra
Today as the sun rises, Libra comes over the horizon to start the second half of the year. You can even see it in our symbol. See the line on the bottom is the horizon and the hump on top is the sun coming up. Cool right?
Full Moon in Pisces
Although the Pocahontas movie is extremely problematic, as most of these princess movies are, the song “Colors of the Wind” hits the feel of this watery moon. Sitting at 10º, the number of determination, independence, and exploration, we may feel compelled to “run the hidden pine trails of the forest” or ask a “grinning bobcat why he grinned.”
Full Moon in Aquarius
This full moon in Aquarius at 11° square Uranus (Aquarius’ ruler), is another crack in the establishment that began back in January 2020. The light is here to expose the flaws of our limited thinking. The full moon will allow us to clear away old ideas and look at life from a new perspective.
Double New Moon in Cancer
As Saturn continues to retrograde in Capricorn (work and status quo) and oppose our Cancer moon (emotions and security), it pulled us back into our old ways or the “things that were.” Now we’ve come to the end of all things (well maybe not all things, but it feels like it!) as the moon hits 28° of Cancer, giving us a clearer view of what must end—and instead of looking back, we must move on.

Mars Enters Aries: The Return of the Warrior
The red warrior planet—Mars, has returned home from its frustratingly cold time in Pisces.

In bold Aries, Mars rules!!! —and he can be his fiery self, powerful and focused.

It’s that time again when the fastest planet in our solar system—Mercury! begins to retrograde in the sky from June 17- July 12. Speedy Mercury retrogrades three to four times a year for three weeks and with it, a much needed moment to slow down and revisit, review, or regroup.
Keep Showing Up: Black Lives Matter
Every 27-30 years Saturn returns back to a sign, referred to in the Astrology world as “The Saturn Return.” Saturn has recently entered Aquarius, and it will retrograde into Capricorn for a few months before transitioning into Aquarius in December where it will stay for about 3 years.
