new moon
Astrology Forecast May 6 – 12, 2024
The week begins with a Taurus Moon transit this afternoon, culminating in a Taurus New Moon tomorrow.
During a Taurus New Moon we feel a stronger connection to the physical world, a desire for stability and security in our lives, and increased attention to money, resources and material goods.
The next few days are therefore a good time to assess our financial situation and consider our values in relation to wealth and possessions.
It is also a powerful time for setting intentions and planting seeds for new beginnings. Given Taurus’s focus on stability and perseverance, intentions set during this time may relate to building lasting foundations or cultivating patience and perseverance in the pursuit of our goals.
We will also find it easier to maintain emotional stability and resilience in the face of challenges ans will be drawn to experiences that stimulate our senses – such as enjoying good food, indulging in luxury or spending time in nature.
Overall, the Taurus New Moon encourages us to slow down, connect with our physical bodies and the world around us, and focus on building a secure and fulfilling life based on our true values.
On Thursday and Friday you may feel more inclined to socialise, connect with others and express yourself verbally, thanks to the Gemini Moon. It will be a good time for networking, attending social events or just catching up with friends and loved ones.
Astrology Forecast April 8 -14, 2024
The week begins with a New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries today, marking the beginning of a six-month cycle of renewed focus.
The second of two eclipses this year (the first occurred on March 25th with the full moon), it promises potential breakthroughs and advanced movement.
This eclipse also occurs closely conjunct Chiron and the Moon’s North Node, creating a profound opportunity for healing, introspection, and focusing on emotional wounds in order to move forward toward our soul purpose without repeating the past.
Chiron’s influence offers us a unique opportunity to confront and work through personal and collective pain, potentially leading to profound healing and a renewed sense of purpose.
Chiron, also known as the Wounded Healer, embodies the archetype of healing through overcoming personal traumas and challenges. This aspect encourages us to embark on a healing journey and take bold steps toward manifesting our true self and purpose.
The energy of today’s eclipse is also an opportunity for reevaluation of both personal and professional goals, especially as they relate to the Aries-ruled areas of your chart. As the first sign of the zodiac, Aries carries the energy of new beginnings, leadership, and pioneering action. We’ll feel renewed sense of innovation and determination.
Astrology Forecast March 4 – 10, 2024
This week’s astrological outlook promises the potential for significant personal transformation, creativity and new beginnings, especially in spiritual and imaginative endeavors. It is a great time to embrace change, pursue your passions, and connect with others on a deeper level. However, the weekend holds potential for conflict and relationship drama.
This morning’s Sagittarius Moon is ideal for doing research, asking for help, or putting together an itinerary for an upcoming vacation or celebration. Gathering more information will give any project we are working on a solid foundation.
Additional value will be added to our plans when the Moon enters Capricorn later today, prompting reflection on our direction and possible need for change. Also, Mercury in Pisces sextiles Uranus in Taurus this afternoon, encouraging unconventional ideas and enthusiasm for change.
Speaking of solid foundations, tomorrow and Wednesday’s Capricorn Moon sets a productive tone, encouraging us to set new boundaries with others in order to move forward more effectively. Don’t be afraid to speak up if someone is trying to steal your energy or block your movement; it’s time to be heard! The Capricorn Moon sextile the Pisces Sun tomorrow morning will increase your confidence to say and do what is necessary.
Astrology Forecast February 12 – 18, 2024
We’ll have a productive start to the week as the Moon moves through industrious Aries today and tomorrow, then into grounded Taurus Wednesday through Friday, keeping the momentum going and us on track.
It will be an interesting week due to a crescendo of planetary alignments in Aquarius. Not only are the Sun and Mercury in Aquarius, but Mars and Venus will also move into this electric sign this week!
Aquarius is associated with qualities such as innovation, originality, and humanitarianism.

Venus rules love, beauty, and harmony and enters Aquarius on Friday, emphasizing unconventional relationships, a desire for freedom in love, and a focus on social connections.
Astrology Forecast January 8 – 14, 2024
There may be lots of talk and very little action today and tomorrow due to the Sagittarius Moon, but this vibe will serve to get many of us back into work mode after the holidays, so don’t stress too much if you don’t get much done.
Luckily, there will be plenty of inspiring energy for new beginnings with the Capricorn New Moon on Thursday. This aspect will get us back on our feet and we’ll be able to catch up in record time, enabling us to tie up loose ends from last year and put a stake in the ground for new ventures.
Tonight’s Mercury in Sagittarius square Neptune in Pisces may be emotionally challenging, especially if you have been dealing with mental health issues. If you feel unwell or begin to spiral during this transit, beware of self-medicating with alcohol, medication, drugs, or stimulants.
Instead, engage in activities that promote relaxation and stress reduction, such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, journaling, or progressive muscle relaxation.
It is also important to stay grounded, calm and realistic during this time, and to avoid making rash decisions or engaging in wishful thinking. If you feel overwhelmed, reach out to a trusted friend, family member, support helpline, or mental health professional.
Astrology Forecast December 11 – 17, 2023
Mercury goes retrograde again on Wednesday, so if you haven’t already done so, today and tomorrow are your last chance to make sure all your holiday travel arrangements are in order and your digital devices are updated and backed up.
This retrograde will affect our travel, technology, and communications through the end of the year and will not resume forward motion until January 1, 2024, so be prepared for a potentially more challenging holiday season than usual.
A Sagittarius New Moon graces the skies tomorrow, marking the beginning of a two-week cycle for new ideas to emerge. So, while it may seem a little premature, this will actually be a great time to start making some New Year’s resolutions.
If resolutions are not your thing, then simply use this energy influence to release some things that may be holding you back from moving forward. This will ensure that you are super ready to embrace new beginnings and the manifestation of better results in 2024!
The most productive workdays this week will be Wednesday and Thursday as the Moon moves through busy Capricorn, so be sure to take care of anything pressing mid-week. Be careful with your communications, however, as the first signs of Mercury’s retrograde shenanigans may already be surfacing. Don’t text when you’re rushed or distracted, and double-check every email before it goes out.
Astrology Forecast November 13 – 19, 2023
The week begins with a Scorpio New Moon this morning, which may cause some of us to let our emotions get the better of us. Usually a Scorpio New Moon inspires gentle harmony in our relationships, but unfortunately today is a perfect cosmic storm for potential upheaval and conflict in romantic relationships and marriages.
The reason today can become an emotional minefield is that a Scorpio Moon opposition to Uranus in Taurus, as well as a conjunction with Mars, can cause our heightened emotional sensitivity to turn into moodiness, irritability, and even outright aggression. By midday, emotional tensions may escalate further due to a Scorpio Sun opposition to Uranus in Taurus, and tonight’s Moon transit into Sagittarius may be the final fiery straw.
So, for some of us, this could become a very emotionally challenging day. Focus on being patient and tolerant, especially with your romantic partner. Stay calm, centered and grounded unless you want to start the week with a big fight or even a petty breakup drama.
Fortunately, our romantic lives will take a turn for the better tomorrow morning with a Sagittarius Moon conjunction with Mercury in Sagittarius and a sextile with Venus in Libra. These aspects promise good vibes for love and relationships, and we will be better at communicating our feelings and resolving disagreements.
