Astrology Forecast August 26 – September 1, 2024
Today and tomorrow, the Gemini Moon emphasizes communication, social interactions, and the desire to explore new ideas and answers.
On Wednesday, Mercury finally goes direct again after three weeks in retrograde. This means the recent period of confusion, delay, and miscommunication that accompanies its retrograde phase begins to dissipate.
You may find that things begin to move more smoothly – plans that have been stalled can gain momentum, and misunderstandings are more easily resolved. It’s a time when clarity returns, making it easier to express ideas, make decisions, and find solutions to lingering problems.
However, some residual effects of the retrograde may linger for a few days, so it’s wise to remain patient and attentive as things gradually get back on track.
On Thursday, Venus moves into Libra, the sign it rules, shifting our focus to relationships, love and daydreaming about the future for the next three weeks.
From Friday through Sunday, the Leo Moon takes over, encouraging us to be generous and attentive to the needs of others.
Sunday brings a major shift as Uranus turns retrograde and Pluto enters Capricorn. These two powerful events mark the beginning of a period of deep transformation, both personally and collectively.
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 June 10 – 16, 2024
A very quiet cosmic week awaits us with no major astrological events on the calendar. The only significant change this week began yesterday when Mars entered Taurus, where it will remain for the next six weeks until July 20, 2024.
During this transit we may notice an increased focus on persistence, determination and tangible results. Mars in Taurus encourages us to take a steady, methodical approach to pursuing our goals, rather than rushing headlong into action.
We may be more inclined to work diligently and patiently toward our ambitions, valuing consistency and reliability over impulsiveness.
In addition, Mars in Taurus can increase our desire for comfort, security and material pleasures. We may feel motivated to assert ourselves in matters of finances, possessions, or physical well-being.
However, it’s important to be aware of the potential for stubbornness or resistance to change during this time, as Taurus energy can be resistant to upheaval or disruption.
Overall, Mars in Taurus invites us to ground our actions in practicality, perseverance, and the pursuit of long-term stability. It’s a time for taking deliberate, measured steps toward our goals and cultivating a sense of resilience and determination in the face of challenges.
Tonight a Leo Moon sextile Mercury in Gemini brings a harmonious blend of emotional expression and mental agility. You may feel more confident and expressive in communicating your feelings and ideas this evening. The energy of this transit tends to encourage lively conversation and social interaction, making it a great time for social gatherings, creative projects, or mentally stimulating activities that may keep you up well past your bedtime!
Astrology Forecast 13 – 19 May 2024
The Moon entering Leo this morning starts the week with vitality, creativity and a desire to shine. We will feel imbued with confidence and assertiveness.
Embrace this energy today by expressing yourself authentically, leading with positivity and enjoying the spotlight in a balanced and constructive way.
Be aware, however, of the added emotional intensity that a Leo Moon opposition to Pluto in Aquarius can bring, as we are likely to experience emotions more strongly, with a tendency towards power struggles or confrontation, especially in personal or group dynamics.
Pluto represents issues of power and control. With this aspect, there may be a struggle between the assertion of personal power (Leo) and the desire for collective change or transformation (Aquarius).
Be aware of power dynamics. Approach situations at work or in your business today with awareness and mindfulness, acknowledging the potential for intense emotions and power dynamics, but also seeking constructive growth and change.
Mercury’s entry into Taurus on Wednesday will inspire us to be more logical, methodical and grounded in our thinking and actions. We will tend to focus more on tangible, realistic ideas and solutions.
Communication also becomes more deliberate and steady during Mercury in Taurus, so we may want to speak and express ourselves more slowly and deliberately, using clear and concise language. Paying more attention to details in our conversations, tasks and plans will increase productivity and accuracy in our daily activities.
Astrology Forecast April 15 – 21, 2024
The week begins with a Cancer Half Moon today, meaning the Moon is at a 90-degree angle to the Sun. This lunar energy brings focus to issues of emotional and security needs, as Cancer is associated with home, family, and emotional nourishment.
Cancer is ruled by the Moon, so emotions tend to run high during this phase. We may be more sensitive, intuitive and introspective. We will also be more focused on domestic matters, and there may be a greater need for emotional support and connection with others.
Given Cancer’s focus on personal life, this lunar phase may make balancing work and home life more challenging. Emotional distractions and an increased need for security could affect productivity or interactions with colleagues. Rather than focusing on work, we may instead be preoccupied with issues of comfort, care, and connection with others, especially family members.
The emotional intensity of this phase can also lead to conflict, both in personal relationships and in public. It’s important to be aware of your words and actions. The protective and sometimes possessive nature of Cancer energy can also cause tension if not handled with awareness and compassion. Given the potential for heightened emotions and sensitivity, taking a moment to reflect before responding to challenges can prevent misunderstandings and conflict.
Astrology Forecast March 18 – 24, 2024
Happy Astrological New Year! Late tomorrow night, the Sun will enter Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, marking the annual beginning of the astrological year and a brand new season.
This event is known as the Vernal or Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the Autumnal Equinox in the Southern Hemisphere.
It typically occurs on March 20 or 21 each year, although the exact date and time can vary slightly due to the leap year cycle. It marks the point in time when the Sun crosses the celestial equator moving northward.
The Vernal Equinox represents a time of balance between day and night, after which the days begin to become longer than the nights, signaling the beginning of spring and a time of renewal and new beginnings.
Aries symbolizes initiation, action, and a pioneering spirit, making the Sun’s entry into Aries a fitting start to the astrological cycle. This is an optimal time to set intentions, start new projects, and embark on new ventures.
The Astrological New Year encourages us to reflect on the past, set goals for the future, and embrace the energy of renewal and growth. It’s a time to take bold steps forward, assert our individuality, and pursue our passions with courage and enthusiasm.
Astrology Forecast February 19 – 25, 2024
Get ready for a spiritually charged week! As the Sun dives deeper into Pisces and the Moon takes a cozy swim through Cancer today and tomorrow, it’s the perfect time to hit pause. If possible, consider taking a breather to connect with like-minded souls or simply dive into nature for some quality time with your inner self.
Midweek, from Wednesday to Friday, the Moon struts into Leo, putting a spotlight on our closest ties and unleashing our empathetic and generous sides. It’s a reminder to not forget about numero uno. This lunar phase is tailor-made for self-care and showering yourself with a bit more love.
Come Friday, Mercury joins the Pisces party with the Sun, steering our thoughts towards the magical, mystical, and soulful realms. Brace yourself for a few weeks of metaphysical insights – keep those antennas up!
Saturday’s Virgo Full Moon, also known as the Snow Moon for the often heavy snowfall that occurs in North America at this time of year will urge us to shed baggage of the past, discard any misguided notions, and embrace new possibilities. During a Virgo Full Moon, there’s a tendency to examine aspects of our lives and evaluate what’s working and what needs to be released. It’s a time to let go of what no longer serves us, whether it’s outdated habits, unhealthy relationships, or unproductive thought patterns.
