I hope you enjoyed your summer. I am writing this blog from the UK where I shared my work at the Astrological Association’s 56th annual conference. It was a fantastic event, and I adore being in a community with like-minded people. We had fun, too. Getting down on the dance floor under the Leo Moon was epic. I have two spots left in my three-day Moon Mastery™ immersion track for October’s OPA retreat. I would love for you to join me.
My dear friend Sarah L’Hrar started an Inside the Astro Studio interview series. I was delighted to be a guest. You can learn about my astrology journey by viewing it here.
I am spreading my prediction wings on Instagram and Threads and chronicling the 2024 election. It is a fascinating Shakespearean drama. I am putting my tongue on the third rail by discussing politics, but I feel an inner calling to do so. I have spent enough time self-censoring. I respect others' points of view and understand...
At its best, Aquarius's energy is inventive, tolerant, community-minded, and focused on individual freedoms. It desires to topple old, outmoded structures and replace them with new egalitarian ones. The sign rules friends, groups, and organizations.
Aquarius is a fixed air sign; in shadow, people can get high on their own supply. When opinions become facts, there is no room to consider the other's point of view. Jupiter in Gemini invites abundance by considering diverse points of view. It is in a tense square with Saturn in Pisces; rejecting new information based on belief systems is easy.
Unpredictable Uranus is the star of the show of this Full Moon and the modern ruler of Aquarius. In the cosmos, it spins on its side and backward, governing sudden and surprising events, breaks, disruptions, and reversals. It rules elections, revolts, strikes, suicide, abortions, aerospace, and aviation. Winning the casino jackpot, fender benders, and revolutions are all Uranian events. It...
The upcoming astrological events, particularly the first of three corrections as expansive Jupiter tensely squares restrictive Saturn on August 19, December 24, and June 15, 2025, are significant. Jupiter, symbolizing ethics, freedom, wealth, and expansion, is in a tense square with Saturn, the planet of tradition, structure, punishment, and contraction. It is a perfect time to trim the excess, as the pressure is set to build over the next two weeks.
Jupiter governs judges and foreign places. President Biden’s proposal for term limits and binding ethics rules for Supreme Court judges aligns with this transit. Success in the multinational coordination for the prison swap is also on point. This energy helps us bring the bigger picture to realistic results, but the path may be difficult. Reality checks, getting sober, starting new health regimes, accountability, and financial belt-tightening are an energetic match.
Communicative Mercury in health-focused Virgo turns retrograde...
Capricorn, the ruler of structures, ambitions, big business, governments, traditions, and older people, is in the spotlight. The 29th degree, a point of crisis and decay, is significant. When a planet reaches 29º, it holds the entire energy of the sign, ready to burst before changing signs. The Moon’s conjunction with Pluto intensifies the crisis. Notably, Joe Biden ended his reelection campaign and endorsed Kamala Harris during this time. The tense square between messenger Mercury and Uranus at this lunation is also of astrological importance.
The planet Uranus governs seismic changes, elections, reversals, shocks, and surprises. When activated by the Great Awakener, we are subconsciously motivated by our vision of the future to take decisive action. We desire to liberate ourselves, make a big splash, or end something abruptly. Uranus was on my Sun when I quit my stable corporate career to pursue an uncertain future as an astrologer. Uranus was opposite his Sun when Joe...
Happy New Moon! Apologies for the late newsletter; unexpected projects put me behind. The Moon is at home in Cancer, which rules home, family, and security. The Moon’s job is to feel, emote, and intuit. The natal Moon’s condition in the chart indicates our reigning needs. If you are interested in a deep dive into all things about the Moon for a more abundant life, join me for the OPA retreat in Park City, Utah, for a Moon Mastery™ intensive. Email me at [email protected] if you want to set up a discovery call to determine if it is right for you.
Today is a beautiful day to call someone, tell them you love them, and remind them of their outstanding qualities. There are two opportunistic sextiles active for the next few days. Lovely Venus in Cancer to surprising Uranus, and communicative Mercury is to expansive Jupiter.
The most significant transit is the meetup of competitive Mars and shocking Uranus on July 15 at 26° Taurus. These two...
Summer is here! The Sun’s entrance into the intuitive sign of Cancer begins this season. I am an Edge Magazine columnist; you can read my thoughts and watch a video about Cancer season here.

I am one of several vendors and will provide mini astrology readings for $40. You can add the intuitive wisdom of oracle readings for $20 more.
Yesterday marked the first of two Capricorn Full Moons this year. Capricorn rules structures, ambitions, big business, governments, traditions, and the elderly. This one feels somewhat chill, although obsessive Pluto is in the blind spot. I think literal storms and leaks about corruption will be the top news items. The one on July 22 may be a doozy, but I love this energy.
Consider your work-life balance. I realized that I needed to bring more...
Last week’s big news was the guilty verdict in the Trump trial. I predicted the verdict date of May 30 when Mercury and Uranus met at Donald Trump’s midheaven (MC) square his Mars. The MC is the most public place in the chart, and a communication shock that enrages a person is on the brand. I was too nervous to predict the verdict as there was a foggy Neptunian haze over the trial chart. I recorded a YouTube video that details the astrological influences at play.
Trickster Mercury landed in its Gemini home on Monday, where it can easily express its energy. Have you had to do things twice? Gemini is a doubled-body sign that enjoys repetition. We have an extra boost to clear, deliberate thinking and speech until June 17. The caution is not to get too scattered this mutable air sign is easily distracted by shiny objects.
I am thrilled to participate in the Stardust Mystical Faire at the Breathing Room in Alameda on Saturday, June 29th, 1 – 5 pm. The address is...
Last Saturday was expansive Jupiter's annual meetup with the Sun. It's considered the luckiest day of the year. The Sun's annual embrace is called the cazimi. Death and rebirth symbology are present as old stories are burned off. Jupiter rules religious figures and judges. It educates, broadens, and takes us on long journeys, including to the river Styx. The Sun governs leaders, and it focuses our attention.
On Sunday, the theocratic President of Iran and his top diplomat died in a helicopter crash on a trip to see a dam during bad weather. Jupiter in Taurus translates to a huge Earth structure. The Sun was harmoniously sextile foggy, watery Neptune in Pisces. Astrology is literal. On the same day, the Venus-Uranus conjunction met Israel’s Sun. Was this an accident and a surprise gift, as the power vacuum could lead to instability?
President Raisi, the Butcher of Iran, was a hardline religious leader, a judge, and a descendant of Muhammad, The Son of a Preacher Man...
The Taurus New Moon invites us to slow down, get embodied, and focus on the practical. This is a much-needed shift after a super intense eclipse season. I encourage you to focus on one or two intentions about what you want to bring to fruition. Taurus, being a fixed earth sign, encourages us to focus on what is sustainable over time. This lunation is conjunct Uranus, promising awakenings, sudden events, surprises, and reversals. Can you be flexible and wear the world loosely? To dive deeper into these insights, you can now purchase the recording of the New Moon workshop.

Apologies for being late with the blog. I have been tangled in the transits and Mercury retrograde delays. I am honored and delighted to present Moon Mastery™ for the Organization of Professional Astrology (OPA) Retreat in Park City, Utah, from Oct 16 -21. The early bird pricing was extended until May 15. It is going to be a phenomenal event. Each track is limited to nine people; if you know you want to study with me or one of the other astrologers, don’t hesitate to register.
I could write for hours about all the Apr 20th Jupiter-Uranus conjunction events, but I will focus on a few. These aspects do not happen in a vacuum. On April 19th, persuasive Venus and communicative Mercury retrograde met in fiery Aries. Together, they collaborate and negotiate. On April 20, the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction at 21 Taurus arrived. Jupiter rules wealth, aid, legal affairs, college campuses, horses, and celebrities. Uranus rules aviation, revolts, reversals, and...
