Astrology, Tarot and More

Jupiter, the planet of expansion and opportunities, moves into social, communicative Gemini on May 25 2024. Read all about it in this post! 

The Sun and the Moon come together on May 7 at 8:22 p.m. PDT. It just might be THE day of the year to set intentions for attracting financial prosperity, increasing patience and perseverance, and bringing contentment and sensuality into your life. 

According to traditional astrology, new undertakings started when the Moon is void of course will not bring any results. Truth or fiction? In this post, I share one of my astro-experiments that might shed some light.

May is a very lovely and eventful month astrologically.  Jupiter moves into Gemini, bringing opportunities for expansion in new areas.  This month also brings Sun-Jupiter AND Venus-Jupiter conjunctions: two most auspicious dates of the year both happen this month.  Romance, finances, career matters, personal power - May has some strong auspicious dates for all of these areas!

The eclipse season is now behind us. Phew! Set intentions to let go of crippling guilt, jealousy, debts, compulsive behaviours, and drama in your life. This is a tense Full Moon; the Sun and the Moon are both square Pluto. It's an intense energy, but also very powerful, especially when you need to purge something from your life. 

I love that the turn of the Zodiac wheel nudges us to “try on” the energies of each sign. While the Sun is in Taurus, it infuses us with the energy of steady growth and strength, physicality and everything that pleases the senses. It's one of the most powerful manifestation seasons of the year! 

Here are a few suggestions on how to tap into this season's energies...

This New Moon is also a powerful Solar Eclipse. If you're a risk-taker at heart, intentions set on this New Moon will be supercharged and can come into your life fast - but, they can materialize in a turbulent way.

April brings a juxtaposition of planetary energies. We have the drag of Mercury Retrograde, the destabilizing Solar eclipse in Aries - that can also bring immense personal healing - and one of the most anticipated celestial events of 2024, the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction!

This Full Moon is also a powerful Lunar Eclipse!  It's a powerful time to free yourself from suffocating, isolating, codependent relationships that clip your wings.

It was February 1999, and I was sitting in the kitchen staring at the phone, feeling like my world was shattering around me, in a slow motion.  I just found out that my husband was having an affair. 

Unbeknownst to me (I hadn't started working with eclipses yet), my natal chart - and my life - was being rocked by 3 eclipses that year.

As the first sign of the zodiac, Aries Season brings in a new astrological year. It's all about taking action, starting new things, taking leadership of your life, and connecting with your Mars: your drive, your conflict resolution style, and - yes - your angry moments.  Here are a few things to try during Aries Season, to help you tap into its energies. 

One of the most anticipated celestial events of 2024 is coming up!  On April 20, Jupiter and Uranus will come together at 21° Taurus, in a conjunction.  It's the energy of massive transformational change and quantum leaps, and we will start feeling it as early as mid-March 2024.

If it hits your natal chart just right, 2024 could be a pivotal year in your life.
