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.

We are wrapping up Eclipse Season this week with the New Moon on Thursday!
I'm so excited to wrap up Eclipse Season this week!
We enter the Dark Moon phase as the week starts. Dark Moons at the end of Eclipse Season are extremely intense! It can be a time of massive undoing, so please protect yourself, your energy, your family, your home, and your loved ones!
Dark Moons are ideal for cleaning, energy cleansing, and protection work. It's also a good time to get more rest and spend time in reflection and contemplation. It's great for healing work and releasing!
This is an Eclipse closeout, so the whirlpool draining is speeding up and can be intense before getting sucked down the drain!
We are closing out the Hungry Ghost month this week with the Virgo New Moon!
Thursday is the biggest day of the week!
It's a massive day and the final closeout day of Eclipse Season and final day of the Hungry Ghost Month! We fully enter the energy of the second half of the year now!
Venus enters Scorpio early Thursday morning! Venus leaves her home sign of Libra and enters Scorpio, where she's in her sign of Fall. Now Venus, Mars, and Saturn are in their signs of Fall, eek! Venus will retrograde in Scorpio early next month. Venus in Scorpio is a goth goddess; the planets are moving into the Autumn signs. Venus in Scorpio is intense, obsessive, passionate, and highly sexual. She loves wearing black, red, leather, lace, dark lipstick, and makeup colors.
Mercury enters Libra Thursday afternoon! Mercury leaves its home sign of Virgo and enters Libra! Mercury loves being in Libra, answering to Venus in Scorpio. Mercury in Libra is refined, eloquent, and sugar-coats any bad news. Mercury answering to Venus in Scorpio signifies secrets, hidden information, and news being revealed. Libra rules fairness and judgment, so things are coming to light for accountability.
Venus opposes Chiron Rx this afternoon. The feminine is feeling suspicious, wounded, or betrayed. Whatever is coming up is for healing and repair, but it's heavy, intense energy. Financial wounds are being highlighted as well. This aspect signifies a deep wound, so please be gentle with yourself.
Uranus Stations Direct this afternoon! Uranus has gone as far as he can in Gemini this year. Uranus made it to 5*41' of Gemini, and now needs to do some reflection. Uranus has been sitting on the Sun in my chart; it's been loud and illuminating! When Uranus Stations, we feel it! It signifies shocks, surprises, disruptions, energetic upgrades, and downloads! We can expect wild news stories, information, and revelations. This energy is rebellious, so go ahead and break free from constraints! Make your own rules, in alignment with the Great Spirit, of course! We can expect volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, sudden powerful storms, solar flares, and power outages. Buckle up, hang loose this week! Uranus Stations can trigger anxiety, so skip the extra coffee, limit sugar/processed food intake, practice regular grounding, remember to breathe!
Mercury inconjuncts Chiron late this afternoon, ouch. This is an accident-prone aspect! This is blindsiding energy. Shocking news, information, or realizations are coming in. Pay attention to what comes up; it needs more healing attention.
Finally, late Thursday night, we have the Virgo New Moon!
Happy Virgo New Moon!
This New Moon is at 18*26' of Virgo.
The planets have been playing musical chairs all day in preparation for this powerful New Moon. Eclipse Season is officially OVER! This New Moon is answering to Mercury in Libra. It's been a busy day with the other planets, but the New Moon itself is pretty quiet. The planetary sign changes were preparing us for this New Moon and setting the stage for the energy of the rest of the year! We are also closing out the Summer Season!
This is an ideal New Moon for intention setting, making a vision board, manifestations, and setting new goals. The sign shifts we had before the New Moon are interesting! Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo. Mercury entered Libra, which is ruled by Venus, who also changed signs before the New Moon! Uranus Stationing Rx in Gemini is the cherry on top! Both Gemini and Virgo are ruled by Mercury; Uranus has been electrifying Gemini and waking up Virgo with a blindsiding energy. Virgos are coming back online after having the South Node in their sign for the past year and a half. Uranus is the Great Awakener and needs us to see the truth, despite the shock or consequences!
This New Moon also closes out the Hungry Ghost Month!
On Saturday, Mercury is busy! We have Mercury in trine to Pluto, supporting us to dig in and uncover forgotten information, truths, and knowledge. This is ideal for critical thinking.
Mercury then opposes Neptune. This aspect is fantastic for dreams, imagination, creativity, and fantasy. It's NOT supportive for discernment or making important decisions. Everything that glitters isn't gold. This energy can be delusional or signify lies and liars. Watch your back!
Mercury trines Uranus Rx on Sunday night! We are receiving powerful downloads of important information now. Something that escaped our perception comes back for consideration and realization. Big news and information are coming to light now. Pay attention to what you hear, as well as insights. Pay attention to your dreams, visions, and omens.
Hungry Ghost Month!
If you're out partying, please be careful and thoughtful of your state. Avoid excess alcohol and drugs. Protect your energy. The energy/psychic vampires are out in droves! In Chinese Astrology, we are in the Hungry Ghost month. It started mid-August and lasts until 9/10. This is a time when the gates of the underworld open and spirits are allowed to roam freely. Yikes! It is advised to avoid going out late at night; if possible, avoid alcohol/drugs; wear protective amulets; avoid covering your head; avoid swimming at sunset. In China, plates of food are set out at crossroads; incense is burned so that the souls may "eat" and be satisfied. It is a time for prayer, protection, and regular energy clearing and cleansing.

Venus is in her Retrograde Shadow now.
We are officially in the pre-Venus Rx Shadow, which means that themes from the upcoming Venus Rx are coming up. Pay attention to what happens, especially around love, relationships, beauty, pleasures, fairness, and legal situations! Venus rules these areas, and as she slows down and retrogrades, these themes are highlighted. This is NOT the time for plastic surgeries, shopping sprees, or radical changes to your style/appearance. We are unlikely to be happy with the results!
This is also a time when relationship challenges spike! If dating someone new, take things very slowly! If you meet someone new, or become interested/attracted to someone during the Shadow/Retrograde, chances are that by the time Venus Stations Direct, you'll be over it, in a BIG WAY! Initially, it could feel like fiery chemistry and passion, even like a fated connection, but remember, Venus isn't seeing things or thinking clearly! Venus begins her Rx in Scorpio, then retrogrades back into Libra. Think back to the Fall of 2018; this was the last Venus Rx in Scorpio! Similar themes could come up! Intense passions that have a destructive outcome are highly likely!
For now, Venus is still in her home sign in Libra, so although she's in her Rx Shadow, she's still capable of good things. Once she enters Scorpio, her sign of Fall, the vibe shifts significantly! Beware of self-undoing during this Venus Rx cycle!
Today:
We are in the Dark Moon phase now.
Dark Moons are always intense, but this one is significantly more intense because we are closing out Eclipse Season- not just any Eclipse, a Pisces Eclipse. Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac; it was the last Eclipse in Pisces, so endings are amplified now! We are also closing out the Hungry Ghost Month, so psychic and energetic attacks ramp up now. Please protect yourself, your home, and loved ones! Light incense outdoors to "feed" the ancestor spirits of the land for protection. Wear protective amulets like a cross, Virgin Mary, or Archangel Michael pendants, evil eye protectors, black tourmaline, obsidian, smoky quartz, or selenite. Do salt scrubs and clean/clear your home. Pray for protection. Ask your Guardian Angels to stand more closely to you and your loved ones. Invite Guardian Angels to stand guard and protect your home/property.
We are feeling Uranus's Station intensely now! Uranus is the Great Awakener, the rebel, bringer of shocks, surprises, disruptions, and unexpected events. Uranus Stations are anxiety-provoking, so pace yourself; skip the extra coffee- go for peppermint or green tea instead! Trust that whatever is happening is for our Highest Good, ultimately! Strive to remain grounded and centered.
We can expect volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, solar flares, sudden powerful storms, and power outages.
The Moon is in Leo today. It's a pretty quiet day astrologically. The Moon will trine Saturn late this morning, and conjunct Jupiter mid-afternoon. Enjoy this lovely, supportive, and uplifting day!
The Moon is in Leo; the Moon in Leo is warm-hearted, loyal, generous, dramatic, proud, regal, paternalistic, creative, and dominating.
The Moon in Leo is answering to the Sun in Virgo.
We are officially in the Dark Moon energies now. It's an intense one, so avoid self-undoing behaviors and protect yourself. The Moon is also co-present with the South Node in Leo.
Pray, meditate, and focus on healing/releasing work!
Moon in Leo trines Saturn Rx in Aries at 11:04 am; this is an uplifting and supportive Fire trine. Go after your goals and dreams! Hard work pays off!
Moon in Leo conjuncts Jupiter in Leo at 2:37 pm; we are feeling amplified, supercharged, and lucky! Enjoy this auspicious conjunction, but beware of overdoing the goodness or spending! Be willing to lean into a leadership role, especially in your own life!
There are no aspects for the rest of the day, so the Moon-Jupiter conjunction holds strong.

Badger- Aggressiveness
Badger has pushed its way into your cards to tell you that you have become too meek in trying to reach some goal. Badger is asking how long you are willing to sit and wait for the world to deliver your silver spoon.
In this medicine, the key is to become aggressive enough to do something about your current situation. Badger is teaching you to get angry in a creative way and say, " I won't take it anymore!" You must follow up by keeping your eye on the goal. Honor the healing process as you express those inner feelings.
Be aggressive, but don't cut others to ribbons in the way- that is too much aggression. Use your anger to stop your lolling around, so that doldrums of apathy are a thing of the past. Badger is a powerful medicine when properly used for self-improvement.
Remember that Badger may be signaling a time to use your healing abilities to push ahead in life. Heal yourself by aggressively removing the barriers that don't "grow corn." Cut away the dead wood and use Badger's aggression to seek new levels of expression. Use Badger's medicine roots to keep grounded and centered in the process.
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.
