You
Who are the source of all power,
Whose rays illuminate the world,
Illuminate also my heart
So that it too can do Your work.

Tuesday- Mars Day
* All times are Atlantic Standard Time
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Today:​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​​
We are in some fresh, new energy!
It's a busy day!
Mercury, Venus, and Mars are in new signs! Enjoy this new and different energy! It's nice to have some Earth and Water energy after the Air and Fire frenzy we've been in. We are downshifting energetically. ​
​
Mars entered Taurus yesterday evening. Mars in Taurus is stable, persistent, sensual, materialistic, possessive, security-oriented, comfort-loving, patient, determined, stubborn, and practical.
Mars is in its Detriment in Taurus, where he is answering to Venus now.
Slow and steady wins the race. This can be frustrating to Mars, who wants to move quickly and impulsively!
​​
Venus entered Cancer last night; Venus in Cancer is sensitive, emotional, instinctual, sentimental, memory-retentive, nurturing, self-protective, family-oriented, mother-oriented, and home-oriented.
Venus is answering to the Moon now, changing her tone and moods each time the Moon changes signs!​
​
The Moon continues through Cancer today. The Moon is making some tough aspects with Neptune, Pluto, and Saturn throughout the day. The Moon is at home in Cancer and feeling strong, but has some challenges to navigate.
​
Mercury is active today, sextiling Neptune early this morning and trining Pluto this evening.
We also had a Venus-Mars sextile early this morning!
​
It's the last full day of Taurus Season!
The Sun enters Gemini for a supercharged Gemini Season tomorrow night!
​
The Moon is in Cancer; the Moon in Cancer is sentimental, nurturing, emotional, sensitive, reflective, protective, and focused on children, mothers/women, home, and family.

​
Moon in Cancer squares Neptune in Aries at 3:49 am; this is a hard aspect. Nightmares, sleeplessness, illnesses, or discomfort are more likely now. Take good care of yourself.
​
Moon in Cancer inconjuncts Pluto in Aquarius at 6:32 am; this is a blindsiding aspect. The Moon and Pluto are not seeing eye to eye. This aspect also signifies nightmares or feeling "off" as we start the morning.
​
Moon in Cancer squares Saturn in Aries at 3:40 pm; this is a hard aspect. It's a tense reality check, and we are feeling the pressure! This is a time to practice accountability, responsibility, and integrity. Saturn is teaching us personal, self-discipline, and self-control in Aries. This aspect can represent tensions between home, family, our responsibilities, and ourselves.
​
Mercury in Gemini trines Pluto in Aquarius at 6:53 pm; this is a deep, lovely Air trine. We can have deep, penetrating conversations and new, deeper understandings. This aspect helps open our minds and think more deeply about our psychology. It's an ideal time for critical thinking.
​
The Moon goes void of course mid-morning tomorrow(Wednesday), and remains void all day, entering Leo late tomorrow night. Launch important projects today or early tomorrow morning!

All of the personal planets are changing signs! This brings a significant and welcome vibe shift! Aspect-wise, it's a busy week as well!
​
Monday evening, Mars enters Taurus! Mars has been blazing through Aries, and it's been a lot! Mars in Taurus slows down considerably and helps with calm, grounded, persistent actions. Slow and steady wins the race with this Mars. Mars is now answering to Venus.
On Monday evening, Venus enters Cancer! Venus feels frazzled, leaving Gemini. In Cancer, Venus is nurturing, gentle, loving, and protective of women and children.
The Moon is void of course ALL DAY TODAY! The Moon will enter Cancer late tonight!

​
The Sun enters Gemini on Wednesday night!
Happy Gemini Season!
This is a supercharged Gemini Season! We have never experienced a Gemini Season like this in our lifetimes! Mercury, the ruler of Gemini, is at home, the Sun is here to join the Gemini party, and Uranus is in Gemini for the first time in 85 years, meeting Mercury and the Sun for the first time since entering Gemini! This is a rare moment in time! The Gemini part of our charts and lives is being shaken up, leveled up, and upgraded! All eyes are on Gemini now, and for the rest of the week! Sweeping changes are happening now; get moving or get swept up by Uranus, Mercury, and the Sun in Gemini. Gemini is a Mutable sign. Mutable signs are adaptable, social, and changeable. The Mutable signs are Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces. All of these signs are making significant shifts and changes now! We need to remember to breathe, remain centered, and keep ourselves on task. Mental overload, overthinking, and mental exhaustion are hallmarks of too much Gemini energy! Enjoy some spearmint or peppermint tea, skip the extra coffee! Get excited about these changes; change is never easy, but it is necessary for growth.
The Moon is void of course all day today. This is not the day to launch businesses/important projects. Avoid drama.
​
Thursday is great for work, launching projects, and having meetings/important appointments. The Moon is void this evening and for the rest of the night.
​
Early Friday morning, Venus squares Neptune! This aspect signifies intense dreams. Are we traveling to other worlds and timelines? Pay attention to your dreams. Protect your energy during this time. All that glitters isn't gold. Slow down and take your time in making decisions around love and relationships. This energy can signify secrets, lies, and deception. Use your discernment. Assess with a critical eye.
The Sun conjuncts Uranus for the first time in our lifetimes on Friday morning! Here we go! This is an annual aspect. Since 2018, the Sun has met Uranus in Taurus. This is their first official meeting in Gemini! Uranus's upgrade is officially underway in the Gemini part of our charts! This energy can be highly eccentric, independent, rebellious, inventive, chatty, highly social, restless, curious, versatile, flexible, and scattered. Definitely skip the extra coffee today! Don't be surprised if you or others are chatting your ears off, lol! We can expect solar flares, technological glitches, overload, or upgrades! This energy is testing the Gemini part of our lives to see what needs to change/upgrades. This energy is genius and inventive. It can signify anxiety, mental overloads that can lead to "shorting out," and taking on too much. Pace yourself, we have time to work with this energy. Make a list of all the ideas coming in. We don't have to act on them all right this second!
Mercury sextiles Saturn on Friday afternoon; this aspect significantly supports grounding, mental stability, or a friend taking the coffee away from us! We can get serious and get to work with intention and focus.
The Moon is void of course all day today. The Moon went void on Thursday evening, and only enters Virgo early Saturday morning!
​
We enter the 2nd Quarter phase of the Moon on Saturday morning. We are growing toward the Sagittarius Full Moon next week.
Venus inconjuncts Pluto late this morning. Venus is looking for love and tenderness, but Pluto is cold, hard, and kinda mean. Focus on self-care and self-soothing.
​
The Sun sextiles Neptune on Sunday night. This is a fantastic time for manifestations, prayers, and focused, dedicated conversations, writing, or work. Read a mystical fantasy book, or write one! Get lost in other worlds! This is a great time for prayer.

Otter- Woman Medicine
Otter may be here to tell you to become the playful child and to simply allow things to unfold in your life. It may be time to stop your addiction to worrying. Otter also teaches the importance of not hanging onto material things that would bind you or become a burden. In looking at how you can learn from Otter's habits, you might look at the joyousness of the receptive side of your nature. Have you given yourself a gift recently? Have you received any messages in your meditations? Become Otter and move gently into the river of life. Flow with the waters of the Universe. This is the way of balanced female-receptive energy. Honor it! In doing so, you will discover the power of woman.
​
​

Year of the Yang Fire Horse!
​
Fire Horse years are extremely fast-moving, so buckle up! The last time that we had a Fire Horse year was 1966! The Fire Horse is bold, independent, passionate, strong-willed, and rebellious! Live with passion! Let your light shine!
​
 Bedroom Feng Shui
I love the look of plants in the bedroom, but did you know that it is said that plants in the bedroom drain your energy? Humans are considered to be an Earth element. Plants are the Wood element. In the 5 Element theory, Wood drains Earth energy. As always, do what is best for you! Take a look at your energy levels; if you have plants, pictures of flowers, or even plant patterns on your bedsheets, maybe begin trading them out.
Bedrooms do best with neutral colors, earthy colors.
