Astrology Forecast December 16 – 22, 2024
We can breathe a sigh of relief after Mercury went direct yesterday and can now begin to untangle the knots left by its retrograde journey. You may feel a subtle shift in clarity and communication as stalled plans begin to move forward and misunderstandings are resolved.
However, with the post-shadow period still in effect, patience remains key — double-check details and allow time for lingering confusion to dissipate. This is a “clean-up” period, offering a chance to finalize or repair anything that was left unresolved during retrograde.
You may also feel like hiding from the world today and tomorrow as the Moon moves through emotional Cancer, but stepping back from the chaos could be a good thing! Use this “baby in the corner” moment to reflect on what the retrograde has revealed about your needs, boundaries, and intentions, and begin to lay the groundwork for smoother progress ahead. Trust the process and take small, thoughtful steps toward your goals.
As the Moon moves into vibrant Leo tomorrow evening, your inner light will once again be seen and celebrated. We’ll also feel back on track and able to catch up on anything that fell through the cracks earlier in the week, so don’t worry!
A Leo Moon is perfect for playful spontaneity, heartfelt conversations, and embracing the fullness of your radiant spirit. Thursday will ignite creativity and confidence, encouraging bold self-expression and heartfelt connections. It’s a day for honoring your passions, sharing your talents and basking in moments of joy. Through Friday, this fiery energy invites you to take center stage in your own life, inspiring courage in both love and leadership. But watch out for dramatic tendencies or ego clashes — balance your need to shine with genuine warmth and generosity.
Astrology Forecast December 9 – 15, 2024
The Moon ignites Aries’ fiery spark as it boldly steps into the first sign of the zodiac today, a perfect start to the week. This transit inspires courage, ambition and a desire to take charge. Emotions may feel intense, but they’ll fuel action and determination. It’s an excellent day to tackle tasks, initiate new projects, or assert yourself in areas that have felt stagnant.
With the Moon sextile Pluto, deep emotional insight and transformative energy are within reach. You may uncover hidden motivations or feel the urge to let go of what no longer serves you. This aspect encourages focused, powerful action that creates lasting change.
Sun sextile Lilith adds an empowering edge that helps you embrace your authentic self and stand confidently in your truth. It’s a great day to honor your instincts and channel bold, unapologetic energy into your pursuits.
The Moon sextile Venus will soften the intensity and invites harmony and connection into your interactions. It’s also a good time for creative projects, romantic gestures, or indulging in small pleasures.
Beware of impulsiveness – patience can keep the fire productive rather than overwhelming. Trust your instincts, but pause to consider the bigger picture before acting. Begin your week with passion, purpose and a touch of daring, enhanced by these cosmic alignments!
On Wednesday, the Moon moves into grounded Taurus, inviting a slower, steadier pace. It’s a time to savor life’s simple pleasures — comforting routines, delicious meals, and moments of joy and beauty.
Astrology Forecast October 21 – 27, 2024
The week begins with lots of curiosity and lively communication today under the Gemini Moon. The conjunction with Jupiter early in the day will reinforce our desire for exploration and new ideas, making it an excellent time to engage in discussion or pursue learning opportunities.
As the day progresses, however, the square with Neptune in Pisces may introduce some confusion or idealistic tendencies, urging us to remain grounded despite our lofty aspirations. The trine to the Sun in Libra that follows will return some harmony and balance, encouraging you to express your thoughts clearly and cultivate connections with others.
As the Sun moves into Scorpio tomorrow, we enter a season that invites depth, intensity, and transformation. Ruled by the enigmatic planet Pluto, Scorpio encourages us to delve beneath the surface, uncovering hidden truths and exploring the depths of our emotions.
The month ahead will be a time for introspection and self-discovery, where we may feel drawn to confront our fears and desires. Relationships may deepen, and we may find ourselves more attuned to the undercurrents of connection, seeking authenticity and intimacy. Embrace this transformative energy as it offers the chance to shed old patterns and emerge renewed, allowing for personal growth and empowerment.
With the Sun illuminating the passionate energy of Scorpio, this transit also encourages us to harness our power and embrace our shadow-side. The focus on transformation can inspire us to engage in meaningful conversations and uncover layers of understanding that have remained hidden.
Astrology Forecast September 23 – 29, 2024
The Gemini Moon brings a burst of mental energy and a desire for variety today, but the square to Saturn this morning can add a layer of tension, making it difficult to concentrate, feeling overwhelmed by tasks and even restricted in expressing our thoughts and opinions.
The Moon’s sesquiquadrate to Venus can also bring subtle tension to relationships today, leading to miscommunication or minor disagreements. Emotionally, we may feel disconnected or frustrated by the lack of harmony, so it is important to remain patient and grounded today.
Tonight the lunar energy will feel lighter, more adventurous and full of possibilities, offering a sense of relief from earlier tensions as the Gemini Moon’s conjunction with Jupiter increases curiosity, optimism and the desire for expansion. Conversations and ideas will flow more freely, making it a good time for brainstorming and socializing.
As the Moon moves into Cancer tomorrow, emotions may deepen and we may feel more sensitive and introspective. We may feel a stronger pull toward home, family, and comfort, and may seek out familiar routines or environments that provide a sense of security. This lunar transit may also stir up old memories and emotional attachments, prompting reflection or healing. Mid-week will therefore be a time to prioritize self-care, be gentle with your feelings, and focus on emotional connections.
Mercury entering Libra on Thursday will encourage us to focus on harmony, balance and diplomacy in our interactions with others. Social interactions will feel more refined, and there’s a heightened sensitivity to the words we use, aimed at keeping the peace and fostering cooperation. We are likely to seek out conversations that promote fairness and understanding, with an emphasis on considering different perspectives.
Astrology Forecast July 29 – August 4, 2024
The week begins this morning with the Moon in a moody semisextile aspect to Chiron and a semisquare to the Node, causing us to feel more emotionally sensitive and introspective, with a hint of tension about our path forward.
Pay attention to subtle inner cues, as these can offer profound insights into personal growth and understanding. You may feel a slight tug between past patterns and future aspirations this morning, requiring a balanced approach to resolution. Trust your intuition and consider how your actions align with your long-term goals.
Fortunately, the Sun’s quintile to the Moon later this morning offers a spark of creative inspiration and emotional clarity. This aspect enhances your ability to express yourself authentically and creatively, paving the way for positive interactions and innovative solutions.
This week we can expect to feel the pre-shadow effects of Mercury going retrograde on Sunday. As it is, Mercury is already slowing down to retrace its steps through the degrees it will later revisit during retrograde.
We may begin to notice miscommunication, delays, and technological glitches even before the official retrograde period begins next week. The pre-shadow phase sets the stage for retrograde, and being aware of it can help you prepare and manage its potential effects more effectively. If you have not already done so, now is the time to back up all your data and update your computer and smartphone.
Astrology Forecast July 1 – 7, 2024
This week’s astrological highlights include Neptune going retrograde, Mercury moving into Leo, and a Cancer New Moon on Friday.
With all these changes happening this week, we may want to be mindful and pay attention as our moods and energies shift almost daily.
Luckily, the week starts off with a sensible Taurus Moon today, allowing us to maximize our productivity before things become both intensly introspective and contemplative, yet also expressive and dramatic, starting tomorrow.
This aspect provides a grounding and stabilizing influence today, fostering a calm, balanced mindset that encourages practical action and a more pragmatic focus. Use this lunar influence to establish a routine for the rest of the week, organize your schedule, and take care of outstanding financial matters.
Tomorrow is the most cosmically significant day of the week, as both Neptune goes retrograde and Mercury enters Leo.
Neptune’s retrograde will encourage introspection and a reevaluation of our dreams, delusions, assumptions and beliefs. Over the next five and a half months, until December 7th, the veil between reality and fantasy will thin, leading us to confront truths we may have avoided until now. It will be a time of inner exploration, uncovering hidden motivations and dispelling unrealistic expectations.
Astrology Forecast June 17 – 23, 2024
Cancer vibes reign supreme this week as Mercury, Venus and the Moon all transit into this emotional water sign today, followed by the Sun on Thursday, heralding the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere.
The annual summer solstice marks a time of renewal and growth. With several planets in Cancer at the time of this year’s summer solstice, this week is likely to be especially potent for personal development and home life.
This powerful astrological alignment will especially affect our emotions, relationships, communication, and overall energy. The alignment of these planets will create a harmonious and balanced energy, ideal for starting new projects related to home and family.
This configuration can also be a powerful time for emotional healing and the release of past traumas. It’s a good time to focus on self-care and nurturing your emotional well-being.
But proceed with caution, as emotions can run deep this week, leading to increased sensitivity and possibly moodiness. Decisions may also be influenced more by feelings than logic. Instead, use this emotional energy to honor your feelings and those of others. You may feel a greater need to care for others and to seek emotional security.
In terms of communication, our conversations may focus more on home, family and emotional issues. We will feel a greater need for security and comfort in love. There may be a focus on personal safety, both emotional and physical. Prioritize strengthening family bonds and creating a nurturing home environment. This week is a good time to set goals related to home improvement or family matters.
