Astrology, Tarot and More

2025 and 2026 feature some rare planetary alignments - not to mention 4 outer planets changing signs!  The outer planets are starting to align into a Minor Grand Trine, a very beneficial planetary pattern.  Read all about it here. 

This week bring some excellent energies for love and romance!  And, a beneficial Uranus-Neptune sextile peaks in the skies. 

When we start learning astrology, there is so much to take in. The planets. Aspects. Signs. Modalities. Asteroids. Transits.

And so we rush past our natal Sun, in our impatience to learn more exciting things.  "Surely I know everything there is to know? I'm a Taurus!"

Not so fast, my friends, not so fast...

Make the most of your week with this astro-forecast.  Take advantage of two Opportunity Periods, and set your intentions for weight control and a healthy routine that sticks on the New Moon in Virgo! 

Mercury turns direct this week, and forms an extended sextile with Mars.  All things communication, contracts and negotiations receive a boost.

And, Venus and Jupiter come together in a happy, jubilant conjunction!  This week has a lot to offer, so be sure to read this forecast. 

Mars receives several major activations this week.  If your birthday is this week, read this post! The Full Moon in Aquarius encourages you to embrace your uniqueness, and to let go of unhelpful stubbornness.  And, a major astro-highlight arrives on Sunday! 

In August, big energies of 2025 continue:  the Saturn-Neptune (near) conjunction peaks for the second time, and Uranus and Pluto are starting to align in a trine.  The world is on the brink of a massive change.  And, if these aspects connect with YOUR natal chart, you're going to have an impactful 12 months ahead! 

Mercury turns direct on August 11.  Hallelujah! And a bright and positive Venus-Jupiter conjunction arrives mid-month.   If you're a Leo, don't forget to book your Solar Return reading! 

Make a health-oriented change early in the week, sit out the grumpy energies mid-week, and indulge your sense of adventure on the weekend!

Leo Season opens up this week with a powerful New Moon in Leo! Happy Birthday to my fellow Leos 🦁♌

Take it easy early in the week - it's an inauspicious time for initiating new, big undertakings.

Set intentions for a "redo" on the New Moon if you need to - such as, a second chance for a great, passionate love.  This New Moon falls close enough to Mercury Retrograde, also in Leo. 

And stay out of power struggles this week. 

Everyone knows their Sun Sign.  You might be a Leo. Or a Taurus. Or a Scorpio.

But your Moon sign is at least as important. It describes your emotional nature, and what you need more or less of to feel safe and secure emotionally.

It also provides a lot of insights into your relationship with your Mom, and into how you are - or going to be - as a parent.
