♊️ It's almost Gemini season!!!

Hi Reader! Gemini season starts on Monday, and a special guest is coming to the party. We say it's Gemini season or Cancer season, etc. when the sun is in that sign. But a heavy hitter is joining the sun on May 25th, and will be staying in Gemini for the next year. That's right - Jupiter, the planet of expansion, meaning-making, and hope, will be hanging out in Gemini until next June. Jupiter magnifies each sign and house it's in, so get ready for a year of amped-up Gemini. This means...

Hi Reader! On Monday at 3:13 AM MDT, the Sun will be conjunct to Uranus, the planet of authenticity and rebellion. Some astrologers call Uranus the Great Disrupter. I call it the weirdo of the planets. Uranus is the planet that shakes things up to facilitate our freedom. It's the voice inside that says, "I know how most people do things, but that's not how I want to do them." And, when Uranus traverses an important part of your birth chart, whether it's a planet or an angle, events will...

Hi Reader! Tonight is the new moon in Taurus. Taurus energy is lush, present, and steady. It's the flowers blooming on your block, opening to the sun each morning and closing their petals in the darkness. Taurus is being open to receiving the gifts of the earth. Your child's small hand in yours. The beauty of a foggy day where you can't even see the tops of the trees. The heat of your first sip of coffee in the morning. The new moon is the promise of something new and magical. It's the...

Hi Reader! Yesterday, May 2nd at 11:46 MDT, Pluto, the Great Transformer, went retrograde in Aquarius. And...it's going to remain retrograde until October 11th, so it's going to impact us for quite awhile. Unlike Mercury Retrograde, which has more of a direct impact on our communication and technology, Pluto's retrogrades are connected to deep transformation. Pluto moves reallllly slowly, so personal Pluto transits (i.e. when Pluto hits an important degree or planet in your chart) are already...

Hi Reader! I hope you're having a good week. I'm still dealing with the news that my dog Kumba has lymphoma - which involves getting him chemo, researching holistic treatments, and possibly cooking him and his puppy brother home cooked meals from now on. Jorgen (top) and Kumba (bottom) And also, lots of tears and fear. And some hope. I'm trying to deeply appreciate his presence in my life, give him more walks and pets, and make every day count - while knowing that he could decline at any...

Hi Reader! A pretty big astrological event is going down tomorrow. Jupiter, the planet of expansion, luck, and making meaning is meeting up with Uranus, the planet of inspiration, rebellion, and authenticity. This meeting is going down at 21 degrees of Taurus at 8:27 PM MDT. When these planets meet, it's a time of inspiration, expansion, and change for the sake of authenticity and growth. And it's the start of a brand new cycle between these two energies. In Taurus, this expansion is...

Hi Reader! Did you see the solar eclipse on Monday? I went to a park and saw it through this colander. Can you see the little crescents? Depending on how much of an astrology nerd you are, you may know that Chiron, the wounded healer, was exactly conjunct the sun and the moon during the eclipse, so this new beginning we're experiencing is directly connected to our deepest wounds. There's also a Chiron-Mercury conjunction coming up on Monday, so we'll be thinking about the places we're wounded...

Hi Reader! As you probably know, there's a total solar eclipse happening on Monday at 12:21 MDT. Whether or not you're able to see the totality, this eclipse is a big deal. Solar eclipses bring new beginnings into our lives, which can be exciting...but also uncomfortable. It's first day of school energy, full of possibility, but also maybe a touch of fear or trepidation. This eclipse is also a North Node eclipse, which means it's designed to guide us in a direction that is more aligned with...

Hi Reader! How's eclipse season going for you? I've spent the last week in Cancun, so it's gone pretty well for me so far. Every time I go to the beach, I wonder why my whole life is based in the beautiful land-locked state of Colorado. 🤷🏻♀️ Mercury is going retrograde on Monday Anyway, back to the astrology...this coming Monday, April Fool's Day, Mercury will be going retrograde in 27 degrees of Aries. It will go direct on April 25th, so most of April will be a Mercury retrograde period....

Hi Reader! Guess what? I've decided to put a kabosh on the whole Substack thing. So I'm back here on Convertkit, emailing you with your weekly astrology forecast + tarot pull. Which brings me to the elephant in the room...eclipse season! Letting go of things and making sudden changes fits really well with the eclipse season we're moving into. This eclipse season begins on Sunday, with a lunar eclipse at 5 degrees of Libra. This eclipse brings an opportunity to let go of things that aren't...
