This Week's Magic: 7/12-7/18

We're back after a short hiatus, and we're returning during one of the most astrologically significant stretches of the decade. This episode opens with a reflection on Dr. Lisa Miller's question about whether we have a spiritual biological clock, and what that might mean for how we understand astrology as a timing mechanism for collective and personal evolution. Then we get into the astrology. The New Moon in Cancer on July 14th at 22 degrees sets the tone for everything that follows, with its Sabian Symbol of a woman awaiting a sailboat as the organizing metaphor for this entire moment. Mercury retrograde conjunct the lunation means whatever we're planting isn't new, it's something that's been circling, finally getting named. We do a full breakdown of André Barbault, his Cyclic Index, and what the Barbault Basket actually means and doesn't mean for this period. Then we walk through all eight major transits firing in ten days, from Uranus sextile Neptune on July 15th through Neptune sextile Pluto on July 25th, including the extraordinary 4 degree planetary activation connecting Jupiter, Pluto, Uranus, and Neptune across four signs simultaneously. We close with the North Node shift into Aquarius on July 27th, including a deep dive into the social media evolution from the last Aquarius nodal period through the Leo period and back again, and what this return might be asking of us collectively. Transits covered: New Moon in Cancer at 22 degrees conjunct Mercury retrograde, square Saturn (July 14), Uranus sextile Neptune (July 15), Uranus trine Pluto (July 18), Jupiter trine Neptune and Jupiter opposite Pluto (July 20), Jupiter sextile Uranus (July 21), Mercury stations direct (July 23), Neptune sextile Pluto (July 25), North Node into Aquarius, South Node into Leo (July 27).

This Week’s Magic: 5/24-5/30

We close out May with one of the most significant weeks of the month. The week opens gently with Sun sextile Neptune on Sunday night, dreamy and intuitive. Tuesday is a tale of two halves, Mars square Pluto at midnight brings friction and power struggles, then the Sun trines Pluto by midday for depth and clarity. Don't write Tuesday off based on how it starts. Wednesday brings a rare thirteen plus hour void of course moon, we break down what void of course means, why it happens, and what to do with a full day of that energy. Thursday, Ceres moves into Gemini and we introduce her properly alongside her mythology, plus Venus squares Saturn for a reality check around love and commitment. And Sunday closes the month with a Blue Moon Full Moon in Sagittarius at 10 degrees, opposing Uranus, squaring the nodes, and asking whether your beliefs are actually aligned with where you're headed. Spicy but clarifying. Transits covered: Sun in Gemini sextile Neptune in Aries (Sunday), Mars in Taurus square Pluto in Aquarius (Tuesday midnight), Sun in Gemini trine Pluto in Aquarius (Tuesday midday), Void of Course Moon (Wednesday), Ceres enters Gemini (Thursday), Venus in Cancer square Saturn in Aries (Thursday night), Full Moon in Sagittarius at 10 degrees, Blue Moon (Sunday).

This Week's Magic: 5/17-5/23

This week three personal planets change signs, Mercury into Gemini, Mars into Taurus, Venus into Cancer, plus the Sun moves into Gemini on Wednesday. It sounds like a lot of movement and it is, but the overall invitation is actually to slow down, get grounded, and use this week as a training ground before June picks up the pace significantly. We also do a sidebar on personal planets vs outer planets and how the fast moving ones amplify whatever the slower ones already have brewing. Tuesday is the standout day of the week with Mercury trine Pluto, Mercury sextile Neptune, and Venus sextile Mars all at once, great energy for deep conversations, creative flow, and connection. Friday is a little up and down with Venus square Neptune in the morning, a surprising Sun conjunct Uranus midday, and Mercury sextile Saturn helping you find your footing. The week closes with the First Quarter Moon in Virgo, your first check in on those Taurus new moon intentions from last Saturday. How are you actually caring for yourself? Not theoretically. Actually. Transits covered: Mercury enters Gemini conjunct Uranus (Sunday), Mars enters Taurus (Sunday), Venus enters Cancer (Monday), Mercury sextile Neptune, Mercury trine Pluto, Venus sextile Mars (Tuesday), Sun enters Gemini (Wednesday), Venus square Neptune, Sun conjunct Uranus, Mercury sextile Saturn, First Quarter Moon in Virgo (Friday).

This Week’s Magic: 5/10-5/16

After last week's heaviness, this week is the exhale that actually turns into momentum. Sun sextile Jupiter on Mother's Day kicks things off with warm, nourishing energy. Tuesday and Wednesday bring a string of Mercury aspects that open up communication, clarity, and big ideas, with one gentle reminder not to overpromise when the vibes are this good. We also do a full introduction to Vesta, the asteroid of sacred devotion, who moves into Aries on Tuesday for an unusually long nine month stay, the longest since 2015. Plus a quick explainer on Sabian Symbols, where they came from and how to use them. And we close the week with one of the more uplifting new moons of the year, a New Moon in Taurus at 26 degrees with a beautiful Sabian Symbol, strong supportive aspects, and a grounding ritual to help you manifest from the right place. Transits covered: Sun in Taurus sextile Jupiter in Cancer (Sunday), Mercury sextile Jupiter (Tuesday), Vesta enters Aries (Tuesday), Sun conjunct Mercury (Wednesday), New Moon in Taurus at 26 degrees conjunct Uranus, conjunct Mercury, sextile Jupiter (Saturday).

This Week’s Magic: 5/4-5/10

This week has friction with a purpose. Mars squares Jupiter on Sunday asking you to find the balance between urgency and emotional sensitivity. Monday's Mercury square Pluto is charged, watch your conversations and use the tension as a flashlight on the stories running your subconscious. Tuesday Pluto stations retrograde in Aquarius, shifting transformation from external to internal, and we break down exactly who feels it most this year. We also do a quick sidebar on all four moon phases and why they all matter, plus a flag on May being a two full moon month. Friday's Last Quarter Moon in Aquarius asks you to release what's out of balance between your personal needs and the collective. And Saturday, the whole week exhales with Sun sextile Jupiter. Transits covered: Mars in Aries square Jupiter in Cancer (Sunday), Mercury in Taurus square Pluto in Aquarius (Monday), Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius (Tuesday), Last Quarter Moon in Aquarius (Friday), Sun in Taurus sextile Jupiter in Cancer (Saturday).

This Week’s Magic: 4/27-5/3

This week starts with a gift and ends with grace. Venus trines Pluto on Tuesday bringing magnetic, feel-good energy, so make plans and enjoy it. Friday's Scorpio Full Moon at 11 degrees pulls things to the surface, with a square to Pluto adding pressure and a trine to Jupiter offering the rescue. Then Mercury moves into Taurus on Saturday, slowing everything down just enough for you to process what came up. Feel it, don't rush it. Transits covered: Venus trine Pluto (Tuesday), Full Moon in Scorpio at 11 degrees (Friday), Venus sextile Saturn (Friday), Mercury into Taurus (Saturday). This is a public episode.
