This week’s headline items: the second Saturn/Uranus Square of the year becomes exact on Monday early evening; Mercury starts to station again (i.e. it slows down) on Wednesday; the first Quarter Moon in Virgo becomes exact on Thursday late evening; Jupiter’s Station intensifies on Friday and Neptune’s Station does likewise on Saturday!
On Sunday late morning, Jupiter comes to a halt in Pisces (starting its 4-months Retrograde phase); in the late evening, the Sun changes signs from Gemini to Cancer (this also marks the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere).
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early afternoon (for a little over 9.5 hours), Thursday late evening (for 5 hours), and Sunday morning (for a little over an hour).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 14th:
Monday, the Moon remains in fun and attention-loving Leo all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late evening. We may lack objectivity and struggle with backing down or compromising. We all love to be admired — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness 🙂
So hand out some compliments — let people know how proud you are of them, tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart in this and all other things… be honest and authentic, as best you can. Fun, games and romance are a big part of this energy as well. You might also enjoy spending time with little ones.
If there are no “outer children” around, how about getting in touch with your “inner child” — it’s definitely easier for the next two-and-a-half days. What are you most grateful for today? What would be heaps and heaps of fun? What would be so much fun, you let out a tiny squeak, just thinking of it?
Monday early evening, the second Saturn/Uranus Square of the year becomes exact, at 6:01pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from January 18th on, it will remain strong until July 18th (due to Saturn’s Retrograde phase that began in May).
The first Square between these two planets was exact on Feb.17th. Think back to that time and ask yourself: What did I learn since January about myself, others, or society as a whole, in connection with spaciousness? How about when it comes to Freedom? Differences? Allowing myself to feel uncomfortable?
This aspect asks us to stretch a little or a lot (individually and collectively). We can’t expect much of anything during this time… expect the unexpected!
Future visions and humanitarian causes — especially those connected to like-minded people — are quite likely to experience disruption, calling for flexibility and creative solutions.
During this transit, we feel a great need to make progress, as we feel quite restless — maybe even anxious — but if we’re unclear on what is in our best interest, we might focus on things that don’t serve us in the long run.
This aspect tells us that if we redefine our need to fit in and belong, we can find a more authentic connection with our own values; we are also invited to stay detached in our social dealing with others — honoring our own individuality without making anyone else wrong for being different or “themselves”.
Ask yourself: Are other people’s choices and preferences really about me (in other words, do I need to take them personally)? Could I give the “choosing” of other people the space that it needs, so I can honor what’s important to me, without taking things personally?
What might become possible if I expressed myself fully, knowing that others may have a different opinion to me, and that’s ok? How might that impact my current communities (whether physical or online)?
Saturn in Aquarius wants us to focus on realistic progress with our technologies, inventions, and long-term visions for the collective. While in Taurus, Uranus, on the other hand, prods us to get back to the basics — to what really matters, what is sustainable (for the whole planet), and what is best for all living beings.
Given this, ask yourself: What does my body require before I can think about connecting with others? Where am I feeling a need for more spaciousness? What does my physical reality require before I can think about what to create for the future? Where do I need to “think out of the box”?
Could I give myself permission to hold some space for things to reorganize themselves physically? How about mentally? Could I allow for this to happen slowly? Without needing to rush into anything? Without pushing others or myself?
Keep in mind that things sometimes need to break down in order for them to be reorganized in a more sustainable way. Individually, this can be related to the area of life in your birth chart that Saturn and Uranus are currently transiting through; collectively, it can show up in sudden shifts and changes in our social or financial structures (or in physical shifts in the Earth’s structure).
If you had to sum this year up with one word, “unexpected” would be a great one to pick — and as best as you can, embrace rather than fear this — see it as opening possibilities for tremendous progress, long-term changes in social interactions, and more beneficial relationships to the planet, and to our physical and material world.
Remember, this only feels uncomfortable because it’s new, different, unfamiliar. Could you allow yourself to be 5% more comfortable with being uncomfortable?
If you would like to learn howthe Saturn/Uranus Squares in Aquarius/Taurus will impact you personally throughout 2021, feel free to watch my webinar on the subject — we looked at our own birth charts to see what the impact might be to us personally.
To purchase this webinar, click here (if you have already seen this webinar, feel free to rewatch it to best align with the current energies. Active Star Members received the recording of this webinar on February 26th).
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 10-16 degrees of Aquarius, Taurus, Leo, or Scorpio? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aquarius or Capricorn (the Saturn rules Capricorn; Uranus rules Aquarius).
Monday evening, a somewhat challenging Mars/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 8:39pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Friday (June 11th) on, it will remain strong until this week Thursday evening. We feel uneasy about something, sort of awkward — and we need to make adjustments — first though, we must develop an inner awareness of what exactly needs adjusting.
We come to realize that we might have become overly enthusiastic and optimistic about life; what’s more, our drive for inner spiritual expansion — in other words, for connecting from an intuitive place and for going within to experience spiritual growth — is actually leaving us feeling drained, and frustrated. At the same time, we harbor a strong desire to connect with our inner child, and have some fun creating and playing.
It will help us manage both these energies if we look more closely at how we use our own energy: simply put, are we in tune with our heart? Our physical and intuitive bodies? Could I be outgoing and still find time for spiritual growth?
It’s also worthwhile to examine how our personal belief systems impact our connection to our “Higher Self”. Can we stay open to new spiritual perspectives and what they offer us? And perhaps toward our desire for more expansion of the heart-energies internally and externally?
Ignoring conflict will not serve us now, nor will being overly naive or sensitive; as best as you can, slow down and stay tuned in to your heart, and your physical and intuitive body.
Ask yourself: Where might I be bringing an attitude that doesn’t in fact serve my joyful connections with others? A good place to “aim” this question is toward one’s “Higher Self” or intuitive “knowing”.
Here’s another question you may find helpful: If I were to check my energy body in the present moment, how do my assumptions or “stories” impact my relationship to joy and the experience of gratitude?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in1-3 degrees of Leo or Pisces? If so, you will be…

This week’s headline items: Mercury resumes its normal pace on Monday, ending its station; a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Gemini becomes exact on Thursday morning; Mars changes signs from Cancer to Leo on Friday late morning. On Saturday, Jupiter and Neptune start their Station phases (i.e., they both slow down) in Pisces.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday late morning (for a little over 3.5 hours), Thursday early afternoon (for almost 14 hours), and Sunday morning (for a little over 7 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:
Since we have a Solar Eclipse coming up this Thursday, I wanted to share one more time about my latest webinar: If you would like to learn how to align yourself with the current Eclipses and Jupiter’s first pass throughPisces… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about “Jupiter in Pisces 2021-22 & Eclipses May-June 2021″ — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on May 28th late evening.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 7th:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peacefulTaurus all day. It will journey there until Tuesday afternoon. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well.
In other words: change is not our favorite thing and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing until tomorrow afternoon? It’s probably slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday very early morning, if we are awake at this time, we are asked to connect with people with similar values who can provide practical support for our visions, and to share with them what is important to us. (Moon in Taurus conjuncts Uranus in Taurus, exact at 3:39am EDT)
Monday early morning, again, if we are awake at this time, we need to experience peace and physical pleasure, on the one hand; on the other, we need to take some time to focus on our future visions, and see what’s realistic for us. We may need to make some adjustments between these two needs that are seemingly at odds. (Moon in Taurus squares Saturn in Aquarius, exact at 4:51am EDT)
Monday night,we have an opportunity to meet our need for material comfort with a gentler, more intuitive approach.(Moon in Taurus sextiles Neptune in Pisces, exact at 12:47am EDT (Monday night/Tuesday very early morning).
Also on Monday, Mercury resumes its normal pace through the sky, ending its Station — but moving backward through the sky, as seen from Earth (that’s what “retrograde” refers to).
We have a chance to do some internal work on any thinking and/or communication issues that came up over the last couple of weeks — especially those connected to our siblings, neighbors, immediate environment, inner dialog, or adaptability. How can you stay curious and open-minded about your own thought processes?

On June 10th at 6:53am EDT, the New Moon (and Solar Eclipse) becomes exact in almost 20 degrees of Gemini. Solar Eclipses are extra-powerful New Moons that take place approximately every 6 months — this is the first in 2021 — you may also want to watch my Solar Eclipse video.
During a Solar Eclipse, the Moon momentarily interrupts the normal flow of Solar Radiation, destabilizing existing configurations of energy and reorganizing consciousness to a higher level. Solar Eclipses indicate the beginning of a new experience, project, or cycle.
Eclipses usually come in pairs (Solar and Lunar), and “Eclipse seasons” start approximately 10 days before the first Eclipse of the pair, and continue through the second.
This particular Eclipse season began on May 16th, 10 days before the Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius became exact, and will end with the Full Moon on June 24th, 2021 — in other words, two weeks after the Solar Eclipse in Gemini becomes exact.
While Eclipse season is underway, allow for new templates to download; stay centered and do your best to ground from within — try using conscious breathing and conscious flexibility — and best of all, see if you can move to the “observer position” when it comes to the emotional and mental body. And remember, this won’t last forever: on June 24th, the downloads are complete 😉
Eclipses are a time for clarifying and affirming our highest path. We are bound to experience a release and recalibration of some sort — “old” codes will get deleted and new ones downloaded — and this is especially true in connection with our ability to connect and communicate, our inner dialog, our ability to listen, and our gathering and use of information. This helps us to be more aware of how we interact and what we share.
The Sun and Moon are connected to one of the Moon Nodes during an Eclipse, alternating between North and South Node Eclipses, emphasizing the evolutionary upgrades that are available to us during such times. This is the first North Node Solar Eclipse in Gemini since the Moon Nodes moved into the Gemini-Sagittarius polarity in early May of last year (2020).
North Node Eclipses help us move towards a new exploration of an energy that promotes our Soul’s evolution. They ask us to focus on the energies of the sign involved in the Eclipse (Gemini, in this case) and work with the lighter/higher frequencies of those energies as much as possible. They highlight our ability for individual and collective growth and evolution.
Eclipses are crossroads or turning points along our Soul’s Journey. They are often marked by events or situations that signify a critical shift in our lives, nudging us to either change and grow, or face greater difficulties at the next turning point. In this case, the next turning point will be on September 12th, when the Sun is in Virgo squares this month’s Solar Eclipse degree.
Solar Eclipses, in particular, often correspond to major endings and beginnings. They occur close to the same degree every 19 years, and the last time we had a North Node Solar Eclipse in that same degree and sign was on June 10th, 2002.
We are likely to experience a resonance between now and that time — “resonance”, not repetition — so think back to the Summer of 2002, and ask yourself: Were there any major endings and beginnings? What was important to me back then? If I were to take those priorities to the next level, where would that next level find me?
If you’re looking for more guidance on those questions, I would suggest taking a look at your Natal Chart — the House placement of the Eclipse will indicate which area of life is most ready to embrace new information and rise to a new level of consciousness.
Solar Eclipses are also a good time to go within and seed anything we would like to learn over the next 6 months — we’ll dig into this in more detail towards the end of this article, when we talk about setting Solar Eclipse Intentions.
One major thing to note in this New Moon/Solar Eclipse chart, is that we now have 3 planets in Retrograde motion — and one of them is the ruler of Gemini: Mercury!

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 15-25 degrees of Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo or Pisces? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly; this is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo, the Moon rules Cancer)
Setting Intentions for a Solar Eclipse is a little different from the regular monthly New Moon process — after all, we are setting them for the whole 6-month Eclipse cycle, rather than just the next 28 days.
Solar Eclipse Intentions are best done 48 hours after the Eclipse becomes exact. We are downloading new templates at the time of an Eclipse, and the energies are quite intense, so we want to wait until it all settles down a little before setting our intentions — that said, we definitely do not want to do this during a Moon void of course.
There are thus two best and most potent times to set your Intentions for this Solar Eclipse:
The first lasts a little over 24 hours, between 6:53am, on June 12th, and 7:16am, on June 13th. The second one runs for 15.5 hours, between 2:22pm, onJune 13th, and 6:53am on Monday, June 14th. Note that all times in this article are given in US Eastern Time — i.e., the New York time zone.
If you live in a timezone other than EDT, and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook Fan-page and/or following me on Twitter, as I post reminders on those platforms when it’s time to set your intentions 😉
Set powerful intentions — remember, they cover the next six months — and if possible, align them with the Gemini energy!

This week’s headline items: the last Quarter Moon in Pisces becomes exact very early Wednesday; Venus changes signs from Gemini to Cancer late Wednesday morning; Saturn resumes its normal pace (ending its station, now retrograde) on Friday; the Balsamic Moon phasebegins in Taurus, on Sunday afternoon.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday very early morning (for almost 3 hours), Thursday morning (for almost 7 hours) and Saturday evening (for 7 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week… and still would like to learn how to align yourself with the current Eclipses and Jupiter’s first pass throughPisces… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about “Jupiter in Pisces 2021-22 & Eclipses May-June 2021″ — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on May 28th late evening 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 31st:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early morning. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Monday very early morning, a harmonious Mars/Neptune aspect becomes exact at 1:15am EDT. We start to feel this aspect build from this last week Tuesday evening (May 25th) on, it will remain strong until this Friday evening. This aspect brings the ability to endow what we feel passionate about with our creativity — and connect it to a higher love.
Our masculine energies are able to connect to compassion and understanding. We can now release past issues; through loving ourselves, we can release emotional blockages and the lower vibrations of the masculine: aggression, domineering, destructiveness, me-first attitudes.
As this aspect is taking place in Cancer and Pisces, we are connecting to our goals and dreams from an emotional place that is deeply spiritual. We are able to let go of our fears and attachments and are able to have faith that everything will turn out just as it needs to.
Those of us who have their Ascendent (or personal planets) in 20-26 degrees of Cancer, Pisces or Scorpio will be touched in a particularly beautiful way by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Pisces (Mars is the ruler of Aries; Neptune rules Pisces).
Monday late afternoon, requires some inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice, one that demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the need to connect to like-minded people about our future visions — and on the other hand, the need to nurture ourselves and stay in touch with our feeling body, engaging with what feels safe and in alignment with our innermost Self. (Moon in Aquarius quincunxes Mars in Cancer, exact at 5:11pm EDT)
Monday evening, we feel a flow and support towards socializing and connecting with others. Great ideas and concepts can be shared right now. (Moon in Aquarius trines Mercury in Gemini, exact at 7:13pm EDT)

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 24th:
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio all day. Where it will journey until Tuesday late evening. We feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities” 😉
Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.
The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s therefore an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.
Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂
Manipulation and paranoia are the lower vibrations of this aspect, so as best you can, be straightforward — act in good faith and assume it in others. Best of all, be truly present to the fluctuations of your feelings — no matter if they’re “polite” or “timely”. Feelings aren’t facts, but they are information — and heeding them will help you embrace all of who you are.
Know thyself — and love thyself — you shall be set free. Remember: Love connects us to the Power within; Fear causes “Force” to show up — and that’s ultimately what disempowers us and others.
Monday early morning, we are invited to make some inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to be mentally stimulated, and share ourselves with others — and on the other, the need to merge with another and feel deeply and intimately connected to them. (Moon in Scorpio quincunxes Sun in Gemini, exact at 4:28am EDT)
Monday early evening, we are also invited to make some inner adjustments: we need to develop inner awareness around two very different urges: On the one hand, we have the urge to go deeper and connect with others; on the other hand, we are more aware of triggers and limitations connected to old childhood wounds.
As best as you can, be compassionate and understanding with yourself when feelings of anger come up (and even if shame follows expressions of that anger). Ask yourself: How might 5% more compassion support my relationship with myself and others today? (Moon in Scorpio quincunxes Chiron in Aries, exact at 5:54pm EDT)
Also on, Monday early evening, we are invited to examine our relationship to money, power, and resources (personal and shared). Ask yourself: How can I balance my need for a deeper, more empowered experience with others, against my wish to honor my personal values and desire for freedom? (Moon in Scorpio opposes Uranus in Taurus, exact at 6:15pm EDT)
Monday evening, we feel a need to focus on our commitments to our online and local communities, but also a need for deep, authentic — even intimate — connections to others. As best as you can, make adjustments and watch out for…

* Mercury, ruler of Gemini, currently in its own sign, stationing (exalted), preparing to go Retrograde (on May 29th)
* Mercury squares Neptune in Pisces (until June 10th, an unusually long time), then again from July 2nd – 8th
* Use the Coaching questions from this video to align yourself with the current energies: feel free to journal or mediate on these questions, and allow the answers to come to you from an intuitive place.
My next MONTHLY FORECASTING FORUM — which is a 90+ minute webinar — will be on Friday, May 28th at 11am PDT/2pm EDT/7pm BST (London-time).
Please note that we’ll take a look at Jupiter’s first pass through Piscesand the upcoming two Eclipses (May-June). We will look to see how the current energies impact us personally by looking at where these energy patterns land in our birth charts.
If you want to know how these powerful transits are going to impact you personally, SIGN UP to join the webinar LIVE, or register to receive an mp4/video presentation within 24 hours of the live event.

On Wednesday, May 26th at 7:14am EDT, a powerful Full Moon in 5.5 degrees of Sagittarius becomes exact. This is a Total Lunar Eclipse of a SuperMoon (i.e., the Moon is closer to the Earth than normal) and as such, this Full Moon’s energy is unusually intense.
Even apart from that, there is a lot to cover with this Eclipse — it is connected to a mutable T-square, with Jupiter as the Focal Point, and it has two Stationing planets: Saturn in Aquarius & Mercury in Gemini!
If you are already a Member of my online community, you can learn more about this month’s Super Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse by clicking here to watch my video
Lunar Eclipses direct our attention to whatever needs to be integrated and balanced, both on the collective and individual levels, over a longer period of time (usually 6 months). Get ready for some big shifts in your life, especially around your relationship with your own belief structures, and around your ability to learn, remain adaptable, and use your “day-to-day mind” intelligently.
Our physical and emotional bodies strongly feel the intensity of it all, so keep in mind: Eclipses ultimately support a shift in consciousness and thus bring us closer to our Soul’s path.
This is the second Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius since the Moon Nodes moved into Gemini/Sagittarius back on May 5th, 2020 — and the Moon Nodes play a crucial role during Eclipses! Feel free to also check out my webinar on those Moon Nodes (if you haven’t seen it yet). We talk about the connection to our own birth charts… and it’s currently available at a discount!
The last Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius in the same degree as this one was on May 26th, 2002… Think back to that time: What shifts in perspective happened then? What is possible now?
Let’s take a closer look at this Lunar Eclipse:
The Moon in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius (which is itself aligned with the South Node) is making an opposition to the Sun in curious, quick-witted, versatile Gemini (which is aligned in turn with the North Node).
Full Moons balance two opposing archetypes, and reconcile their Shadow sides — in this instance, Gemini deals with information, intelligence, and communication, while Sagittarius is concerned with meaning, truth, and wisdom.
The Shadow side of Gemini brings…

Because Eclipses are so powerful, they require a bigger orb than a regular Full or New Moon. I usually use a 5º orb instead of 2º… so since this Lunar Eclipse takes place in 5.5º of Sagittarius:
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 0-11 degrees of Sagittarius, Gemini, Virgo, or Pisces? If so, you are more affected by this month’s powerful Super Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).

This week’s headline items: Eclipse season remains in strong effect all week. The Saturn Station intensifies on Monday and that day also marks the time to start taking actions on our New Moon intentions. On Tuesday, Mercury starts to slow down, as it starts its Station phase, preparing to go retrograde. The first Quarter Moon in Leo becomes exact on Wednesday afternoon; the Sun changes signs from Taurus to Gemini on Thursday afternoon; finally, Saturn comes to a halt and begins its yearly Retrograde phase on Sunday early morning.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday very early morning (for a little over 6 hours), Wednesday afternoon (for almost 2 hours), Friday late afternoon (for a little over 5.5 hours), and Sunday early evening (for almost 5.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me mention this:
If you missed last week’s PREMIERE of my NEW Interview Series “How to Deal with Uncertainty & Change“, feel free to watch it here. As we move through this time of heightened change and unpredictability, I will be interviewing people I love and respect, chatting about the daily routines and practices that have provided them the greatest level of support over these past 13 months (or longer).
Would you like to know how to support yourself in the best way possible on a physical, emotional, and mental level, now and into the future? Click here to watch my first Interview with Chernise Spruell, a Channel & Energy healer of the highest vibration!
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 17th:
Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer. It will journey there until 8:44am EDT. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say and therefore our feelings are more easily hurt — so be kind to yourself and others. Self-Care is key this morning 😉
Emotional safety is important to us as well; we like connecting to the familiar and we enjoy nurturing ourselves and others — home and family call to us, for instance. Make sure though, that your glass is filled before letting others drink from it, otherwise you might start to feel drained and resentful.
Monday at 2:23am EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for a little over 6 hours, until 8:44am EDT. Use this intuitive time to empower each other in regards to earthly issues and mutually support each other in practical ways.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday morning ahead of time.
Monday at 8:44am EDT, the Moon moves intofun and attention-loving Leo, where it will journey until Wednesday late afternoon. We may lack objectivity and struggle with backing down or compromising. We all love to be admired — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness 🙂
So hand out some compliments — let people know how proud you are of them, tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart in this and all other things… be honest and authentic, as best you can. Fun, games and romance are a big part of this energy as well. You might also enjoy spending time with little ones.
If there are no “outer children” around, how about getting in touch with your “inner child” — it’s definitely easier for the next two-and-a-half days. What are you most grateful for today? What would be heaps and heaps of fun? What would be so much fun, you let out a tiny squeak, just thinking of it? This Moon placement start the build up toward the first Quarter Moon (exact Wednesday afternoon).
Monday, after 8:44am EDT, if you set intentions last Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, after the New Moon became exact, today will be the best time to take relevant actions. If you wrote your intentions down, go back and take another look at what came through intuitively. If you didn’t write anything down, get quiet for a moment and check in with yourself: What actions are calling to you?
Also on Monday, theSaturn Station intensifies in 13.5 degrees of Aquarius. As I mentioned last week Monday (May 10th) already, “Stationing” is when a planet moves more slowly through the sky. When a planet stations, its energy becomes more “exalted”; in the case of Saturn, this means we all feel the need to more fully face what is currently so, our actual reality.
Ask yourself: Where am I being asked to look at my long-term goals and ambitions when it comes to building a sustainable future for myself and others? Around becoming a more mature citizen of the world? Where do I need to commit towards building a solid foundation in my various communities or networks? What will time do if I take these steps? And if I don’t?
As best as you can during the time of the station, bring flexibility and open-mindedness to any frustrations. The station-phase will feel most intense until until May 28th, but altogether, it will run until June 4th— and Saturn will start its 4.5-month Retrograde phase, on Sunday (May 23rd)… more on that later this week 😉
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 11-16 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus or Scorpio? Ascendant or Sun-sign in Capricorn? If so, you will…

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 10th:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It will journey there until Wednesday morning. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well. In other words: change is not our favorite thing and “rushing things” goes against our grain.
What is our favorite thing for the next two days? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday late evening, an opportune Mercury/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 10:44pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect from Sunday afternoon (May 9th) on; it will remain strong until this Wednesday morning. We have an opportunity to bring healing energy to our concrete mind and to our thoughts. We also have a chance to heal insecurities in our verbal, in-person, social media or email interactions.
We are better able now to tune out that automatic/critical inner voice, in favor of more loving and compassionate structures for thinking and communicating. By bringing love and understanding to our thinking processes, we have a chance to move beyond entrenched habits, like “impatient self-talk”, or the use of aggressive language (swear words for example).
Here’s a few good “chew toys” for your mind at this time: What was your family’s attitude towards communication? Toward speaking up for yourself? What if you tried a kinder approach for a bit? Does your inner dialog really have to repeat what they said when you were 3 or 5 years old? What if you tried using a gentler voice for the next ten minutes or so?
For those of you who want to have a better understanding of your personal healing journey, feel free to get the recording of my Chiron Workshop: “Healing with Astrology”Click here for more info. Please keep in mind that as a Member of my online community you have automatically access to this workshop. Go to My Courses.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 9-13 degrees of Gemini, Aries, Aquarius, or Leo? If so, you may be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo).
Also on Monday, Saturn starts its station in Aquarius. “Stationing” is when a planet moves more slowly through the sky. When a planet stations, its energy becomes more “exalted”; in the case of Saturn, this means we all feel the need to more fully face what is currently so, our actual reality.
Saturn has to do with doing what needs to be done — so we can fully understand the practical implications of our reality, and the consequences of our past actions. Saturn also represents our structures, responsibilities, commitments and ability to “do” life, on life’s terms.
As spirit beings in a physical world, it’s best to observe the laws of the physical world. The sooner we learn to “play by the rules”, the easier life gets. Saturn also represents time and the “domain” of time: growing up, maturing, understanding our limitations, setting healthy boundaries with others, living with integrity, being authentic and truthful, being serious and focused on building something of value to society.
Saturn is our teacher. If you had a cosmic teacher, what would your personal “earth class” be in, right now? Where are you asked to look at your current “earth structures” and become more mature? Which communities or networks calls out for a commitment? What will time do?
As best as you can during the time of the station, bring flexibility and open-mindedness to any frustrations. The station-phase will lastuntil June 4th; and Saturn starts its 5-month retrograde on May 23rd in 13.5 degrees of Aquarius (more on that next week…).
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 11-16 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio? If so, you will be…

On May 13th, 2021, Jupiter changed signs from freedom-loving, forward-thinking, and objective Aquarius to creative, sensitive, and intuitive Pisces. It will journey in that sign until July 28th, 2021. This is a preview of what’s to come in December of 2021, when Jupiter makes its second move into Pisces on Dec. 28th, this time until May 11th, 2022. There will also be a third pass through Pisces from Oct. 28th until Dec. 20th, 2022.
In our individual natal chart, the position of Jupiter reveals how we express generosity and tolerance, and how we go about trusting others and improving our lives. Where do you look for wisdom and understanding? Where do you need movement and spaciousness? Where do you feel optimistic and have faith that things will turn out ok?
Jupiter represents the principle of expansion — it operates like a magnifying glass. It’s been in Aquarius since Dec. 2020, where that magnifying glass was looking at creating more opportunity for (and through) communities or networks — whether online or local.
The planet urges an expansion of sustainable, long-term visions, and a greater understanding of our potential for a better future — for example, it helped us develop faith in our humanitarian goals, or highlighted a lack of faith in those things. It also showed us more clearly where our alliances lie on a personal and collective level.
Aquarius values both equality and diversity, so we’ve been getting to see what we believe to be true about our various communities or affiliations, and the collective vision for the future — and what stories we’ve been telling ourselves about the same — we also gained new perspectives on our collective experience and our networks of like-minded people.
Jupiter in Pisces brings the magnifying lens to bear on our inner divinity, our ability to receive, our connection to intuition, and our desire to contribute to life from a heart-centered place. The opportunity now is to bring the enthusiastic energies of Jupiter to the unification of all dualities — becoming more fully aware of the oneness of all.
Jupiter in Pisces also promotes a greater understanding of our potential for expanding the union within. This exists always, and we can tap into it at any time — it helps us to have faith in our ability to transcend falsehoods and illusions by tapping directly into Source.
Jupiter is in Piscesuntil July 28th, 2021, and then again later from Dec. 2021, until May 2022, and then one last time from Oct. 28th until Dec. 20th, 2022. During these three periods, we attract the most good fortune when we are tender, devoted, compassionate, kind, look out for the underdog, and give generously. We value compassion and charity, and are motivated by a universal vision; peaceful personal philosophies and faith in the goodness of life will serve us best.
We are more open to spiritual or creative endeavors. Possibilities for a great heart-expansion and recognition of our underlying interconnectedness are very strong; we are each particularly invited to go within and explore this on a very private or personal level.
We also have an inborn faith in the Universe. Solitude, working alone, and meditation can all bring us great pleasure and a sense of rejuvenation. We are merciful and generous — often anonymously. Jupiter in Pisces helps to create…

Where does Jupiter-in-Pisces fall in your own birth chart? What aspects does it make during this transit? How does a wise response to one house support a more fruitful response to the next? What outward opportunities arise as Jupiter interacts with any of your personal planets? Where will you experience a major expansion until Dec. 2022? Where are you ready to open your heart and trust the larger play of life?
If you’d like more insight into those questions, we covered Jupiter’s move through Pisces in more detail in one of my Forecasting Forums (in May 2021) — so if you want to know how this planetary movement is impacting you personally, feel free to purchase the video-presentation of the “Jupiter in Pisces“ webinar — we applied Jupiter’s movement to our own birth charts!

This week’s headline items: the last Quarter Moon in Aquarius becomes exact on Monday afternoon; Mercury changes signs from Taurus to Gemini on Monday late evening; the Balsamic Moon phase begins Friday late morning/early afternoon; and Venus changes signs from Taurus to Gemini on Saturday late evening.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday evening (for 2 hours), Friday early morning (for a little over 4 hours), and Sunday evening (for a brief 56 minutes).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 3rd:
Monday is a big day (astrologically speaking): the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late evening. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Monday early morning, a challenging Mercury/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 5:33am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build fromlast week Saturday (May 1st) on; it will remain strong until this Tuesday night. This aspect asks that we grow and evolve in the following areas: how we communicate, think, and what (or how) we share.
We may have to find creative solutions to communicate; we may have to learn about our thinking process and conditioning. “Listening” might not be our strong suit at this time: we want to share our opinions, concepts, and long-term visions without limitations — and are thus inclined toward exaggeration, often unintended.
We might experience stubbornness and have trouble agreeing how to put our ideas into practice. The upside to all this: we can be extraordinarily funny, interesting and creative.
As Jupiter and Mercury are exalted at the time of this aspect — due to both being in the last degree of their respective signs — impatience and self-righteousness might show up, but moving faster or digging our heels in will not necessarily get us where we would like to be. What if you slowed down just 5% when connecting with others? What if that helped you listen 5% more? What might become possible in your collaborations if you were 5% more aware of what you are assuming in any given moment?
If we were being completely honest with ourselves, is “being right” really all that it’s cracked up to be? Do you feel a greater or lesser connection to others when you insist on “being right”?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 25-29 degrees of Taurus, Aquarius, Scorpio,Leo, or 0-2 degrees of Gemini, Pisces, Sagittarius or Virgo? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo or Sagittarius (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).
Monday morning, a challenging Sun/Saturn aspect becomes exact at 6:02am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Thursday night (April 30/31st) on; it will remain strong until this Thursday. We’re asked to stretch and grow beyond what we have previously known ourselves to be; our commitments and responsibilities towards the collective are calling us to get out of our comfort zone.
Find creative ways to honor both your comforts (and what you most value), and your desire to build a vision for humanity that lasts and is sustainable. Allow for a slow and steady approach, even if life puts up roadblocks, or throws some curve-balls.
What if you just knew that you could handle whatever shows up? Would you rather build structures that are sustainable for generations to come, or take a more enjoyable and down-to-earth approach to achieving things? Would you rather achieve status in your communities (in person or online) or honor and love yourself exactly as you are? What if it were not a question of “or” but of “and”?
What if you just decided to bring maturity and self-responsibility to the table when dealing with your various affiliations, even if you don’t agree all of the time?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 10-16 degrees of Taurus, Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Capricorn (the Sun rules Leo; Saturn rules Capricorn).
Monday afternoon, at 3:50pm EDT, the last Quarter Moonin 13.5 degrees of Aquarius becomes exact. The Moon in Aquarius makes a challenging aspect to the Sun in Taurus. We started to feel this aspect build from the moment the Moon entered Aquarius on Sunday morning (May 2nd). This may bring challenges; however, it also energizes us to look at what needs to be completed — and what needs to be changed.
This Moon phase brings us closer to May 11th’s New Moon in Taurus. With the last Quarter Moon, rather than starting major new projects, it serves us to take a look at what needs to be completed. What — if anything — needs last-minute adjustments? What did you discover since April 11th? What did it mean for you? What actions could shift the things you seeded or started in mid-late April?
As best as you can, find creative solutions for anything that comes up (whether internally, or with others).
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 11-16 degrees of Taurus, Aquarius, Leo or Scorpio? If so, you will feel this month’s last Quarter Moon quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).
Monday at 10:49pm EDT, Mercury changes signs from steady, slow-paced Taurus to curious, quick-witted Gemini, where it will journey untilJuly 11th, longer than usual due to the Mercury Retrograde phase in late May/June. For the next 10 weeks, our thinking shifts gears: Mercury — the energy of communication — will pick up the pace of our lives just a little.
Mental exchanges and abilities take priority for the next 10 weeks — talking, writing, sharing, connecting to the world around us in whatever way we can (internet, phone, in person, TV, radio…). This is a time with great potential for studying and learning, curiosity and open-mindedness, and social/intellectual growth.
Make sure you don’t exhaust yourself during this time. As best as you can, keep taking breaks and let yourself see the larger picture now and again. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo? If so, you will feel…

This week’s headline items: the Super Full Moon in Scorpio becomes exact on Monday very late evening; Pluto comes to a halt, starting its 5-month Retrograde phase on Tuesday afternoon.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for a little over 3.5 hours), Wednesday morning (for a little over 3 hours), Friday late morning (for almost 3 hours), and Sunday late morning (for almost 5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week… and still would like to learn how to align yourself with the current Pluto Station phase in Capricorn… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about “Pluto Station-Retrograde April-May 2021″ — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on April 23rd late evening 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 26th:
Monday, the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra. It will journey there until 12:18pm EDT. The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time, as we seek the approval of others.
We very much want to maintain equal, fair relationships at this time, and are therefore open to making compromises and negotiating. Until this early afternoon will be a great time for mediation — but our need for peace and accompanying aversion to direct conflict could pull us to “yes” more easily than we might like.
We may also be able see both sides of the equation so well that we can’t make decisions. As best as you can, find an inner balance with this and communicate what needs to be said with grace and charm — even if it’s “No” 😉 One last quick note: this is also a great time for anything to do with visual arts.
Monday at 8:40am EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for a little over 3.5 hours, until 12:18pm EDT.Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to connect with like-minded people, expand each other’s minds, and collaborate in a way that allows you to see the bigger picture.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday morning until the early afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 12:18pm EDT, the Moon moves into passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio, where it will journey until Wednesday late morning/early afternoon. Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.
The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s therefore an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.
Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂
Manipulation and paranoia are the lower vibrations of this aspect, so as best you can, be straightforward — act in good faith and assume it in others. Best of all, be truly present to the fluctuations of your feelings — no matter if they’re “polite” or “timely”. Feelings aren’t facts, but they are information — and heeding them will help you embrace all of who you are.
Know thyself — and love thyself — you shall be set free. Remember: Love connects us to the Power within; Fear causes “Force” to show up — and that’s ultimately what disempowers us and others. This Moon placement also starts the build up towards the Super Full Moon (exact tonight).
Monday very late evening, at 11:32pm EDT, the Full Moon in 7 degrees of Scorpio becomes exact. The Moon in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio opposes the Sun in steady, peaceful Taurus.
This Full Moon has heightened effects on us for two important reasons: first, it is a “Super Full Moon” (i.e. the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth) — in fact, it is the first of three Super Full Moons in a row! Secondly, Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio, is exalted, preparing to go Retrograde at 26.5º of Capricorn — less than 24 hours after the Full Moon becomes exact! All of this could increase emotional volatility but could also facilitate larger shifts in consciousness.
There are lots of other aspects worth mentioning in this Full Moon chart: a Stellium in Taurus, a T-Square with Saturn as the Focus point — and we will address all of them in a moment. If you are currently a Member of my online community, feel free to also watch my Super Full Moon video here.
This Full Moon shows us how far we have come, as well as what we must still release or transform, if we are to manifest what was begun at the time of the New Moon that occurred on April 11th.
For the next two weeks, we seek the balance and integration of two polarities, and are aware that something needs to be brought into alignment. The balance in question is between our physical attachments, aversions, and connections — symbolized by Taurus— and our emotional attachments, aversions, and connections (Scorpio).
The time of the Full Moon is always more extroverted and emotional. This particular one invites us to let go of fears or disempowering behaviors, and thereby break through to the next level of our evolution, individually and collectively.
So, here’s this Full Moon’s central question: As a society, are we living in alignment with our values, with what makes us happy and satisfied? How about as individuals? Do we feel empowered and emotionally fulfilled? Are there any fears in our way to achieving progress? Or any rigid thought processes? All right, let’s look at the signs involved in this polarity,… To read the whole Full Moon article, and get all the Coaching questions, click here.

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 19th:
Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer all day. It will journey there until Tuesday very early morning. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say and therefore our feelings are more easily hurt — so be kind to yourself and others. Self-Care is key for the today 😉
Emotional safety is important to us as well; we like connecting to the familiar and we enjoy nurturing ourselves and others — home and family call to us, for instance. Make sure though, that your glass is filled before letting others drink from it, otherwise you might start to feel drained and resentful.
Monday at 6:29am EDT,Mercury changes signs from enthusiastic, fast-paced Aries to steady, peacefulTaurus, where it will journeyuntil May 3rd. For the next 2 weeks, our thinking shifts gears: we want to connect to others in a realistic, down-to-earth way and we “say it like it is”. We appreciate common sense; we rely on our senses when it comes to processing information.
A well-developed sense of color, smell, and touch are characteristic of this Mercury position, so as long as Mercury is in Taurus, we will be drawn towards the “tasteful” in the realm of the five senses. We are more likely to have a no-nonsense approach to decision-making, and our ideas are often very practical and useful at this time.
When it comes to learning, we prefer demonstrations, concrete answers, and basic concepts for the next 2 weeks. We learn best when we see real-world uses for the theories we are trying to absorb. We simply process information better when we can personalize it (“what use is it to me?”) and attach it to the practical world.
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus? If so, you may feel more talkative during this time. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo? If so, you may need to slow down and “smell the roses” 😉
Monday at 4:33pm EDT,the Sun also changes signs from bold, courageous Aries to steady, peaceful Taurus; it will journey thereuntil May 20th. For the next four and a half weeks our attention is on physical pleasures and we are more aware of our need for comfort and consistency. The Sun in Taurus reminds us to slow down and smell the roses.
We are able to be very consistent and methodical, which helps us bring groundedness and reality to our new goals. We focus on what is most important to us. What do you value most? How do you feel about yourself and what you bring to the table?
All this is especially true if you are a Leo or Taurus Sun-sign or Rising-sign. As a Taurus, you will feel a good dose of confidence and playfulness in the next 4.5 weeks; as a Leo your vitality will most likely slow down and you might indulge in physical or material pleasures.
Monday at 8:03pm EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for a little over 6 hours, until 2:11am EDT (Tuesday very early morning). Use this intuitive time to remain flexible and practice self-care — take good care of your emotional and physical body…

Blast Through Challenges — Forecast for April 12th – 18th
This week’s headline items: Pluto starts its Station phase (slows down/preparing to go retrograde) on Tuesday; Venus changes signs from Aries to Taurus on Wednesday afternoon; and it’s time to start to take action on our New Moon intentions on Saturday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for a little over 5.5 hours), Wednesday evening (for a little over 6.5 hours), and Saturday late morning (for almost 4.5 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 12th:
Monday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries. It will journey there until 1:44pm EDT. Life is an adventure, we’re more open to new ideas, and have great enthusiasm for new projects. Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly, and act immediately.
Our independence and dynamism are important to us right now, so we may find it hard to be disciplined or accept advice at this time; in general, our responses to others tend to be more assertive or even aggressive. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym, or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.
This Moon placement also started the New Moon cycle yesterday (Sunday, April 11th) at 10:30pm EDT. Feel free to watch my New Moon video now (if you haven’t watched it yet).
Monday at 8:06am EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for a little over 5.5 hours, until 1:44pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to connect with others and do something enjoyable. What if you got in touch with your passion for life, just for these 5.5 hours? What if you could inspire others just by being yourself?
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday morning until the afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 1:44pm EDT, the Moon moves into steady, peaceful Taurus, where it will journey until Thursday very early morning. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well. In other words: change is not our favorite thing and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing for the next two days? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉

With her Readings, her coaching and her Soul-Based Astrology Courses she aims to empower and support people in fulfilling their life’s potential and aligning with Soul Purpose.
This week’s headline items: the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Wednesday late evening; the New Moon in Aries becomes exact on Sunday late evening.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday very early morning (for 6 hours), Wednesday morning (for almost 10.5 hours), and Friday evening (for almost 6.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:
The second interview (on April 2nd) was for an internet TV show called “Beauty + Gratitude“. It was hosted by Author and Podcast Host D’Angelo Thompson.
Monday, the Moon remains in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn. It will journey there until 9:04am EDT. We tend to be more realistic, serious, cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.
Our ambition surges and brings with it a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this aspect supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes very important to us.
As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying “I am doing the best I can and that’s all I can ever do” 😉
Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn — and is through Aquarius, making this a great time to take a look at our visions for humanity, and at anything we would like to accomplish long-term within our communities (locally or online).
It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our various networks and connections to like-minded people; as best as you can, be authentic about your affiliations: Do they truly resonate with your personal vision for the future — as it stands now, rather than what it was 5 or 10 years ago?
Does participation in those groups or networks align with who you are now, and with where you see yourself 5 years from now? What do you truly want to commit yourself to?
Monday very early morning, at 3:05am EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for 6 hours, until 9:04am EDT. If you are awake during this intuitive time, use it to focus on long-term successes. We might get a little obsessed with a project or task — as best as you can, take breaks and don’t forget to practice a little self-care 😉
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday morning ahead of time.
Monday at 9:04am EDT, the Moon moves into freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Wednesday afternoon. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.

This week’s headline items: on Wednesday, Mercury squares the degree of Dec. 14th’s Solar Eclipse, and on Saturday late evening itchanges signs from Pisces to Aries. The last Quarter Moonin Capricorn becomes exact on Easter Sunday; and there will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday evening (for almost 5.5 hours), Wednesday evening (for 5.5 hours), and Friday night/Saturday very early morning (for almost 3 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me make a quick announcement:
I will be giving an interview on Friday, April 2nd at 8pm EDT on Soulivity TV. A show titled: Beauty & Gratitude! This show is hosted by my dear friend D’Angelo Thompson who wrote the book “100 Days of Gratitude” and has a podcast on Spotify called: “Gratitude is a Journey” — he will be interviewing me. If you would like to watch, feel free to join via Soulivity’s Facebook Fanpage or their Youtube channel. You can also join D’ Angelo Thompson’s Facebook page.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 29th:
Monday, the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra all day. It will journey there until Tuesday very early morning. The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time, as we seek the approval of others.
We very much want to maintain equal, fair relationships at this time, and are therefore open to making compromises and negotiating. These next two days are a great time for mediation — but our need for peace and accompanying aversion to direct conflict could pull us to “yes” more easily than we might like.
We may also be able see both sides of the equation so well that we can’t make decisions. As best as you can, find an inner balance with this and communicate what needs to be said with grace and charm — even if it’s “No” 😉 One last quick note: this is also a great time for anything to do with visual arts.
Monday early morning, a Sun/Chiron alignment in almost 9 degrees of Aries becomes exact at 4:09am EDT. Westarted to feel this aspect from last week, Thursday night (March 25th) on, it will be strong untilthis Thursday. This gives us an opportunity to heal insecurities or shame through conscious awareness.
Becoming aware of old wounds or limitations is the first step toward healing them. Bringing compassion, self-acceptance, and love to them is the second. Together, steps one and two make for a beautiful healing experience. Feel free to also read my article on Chiron in Aries until 2027
It will help to stay grounded — connected to the Earth and your body. If waves of anger or frustration come up, let them, simply observe the waves. Ask yourself: Am I the “wave” or am I more than that? As best as you can, allow all “waves” to wash ashore, and allow yourself to rest as the vastness that you are (just like the ocean is to the waves).
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 6-12 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn ? If so, you will be more aware of this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo (the Sun rules Leo).
Monday at 8:08pm EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for almost 5.5 hours, until 1:33am EDT (Tuesday very early morning). Use this intuitive time to make some adjustments and find creative ways to work with the energies at play: On the one hand, as best as you can, collaborate with others and play nice, on the other hand, be authentic and truthful about what you want to build long-term.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday evening until Tuesday very early morning ahead of time.
Monday at 11:24pm EDT, a Mercury/Neptune alignment in 21 degrees of Pisces becomes exact. Westarted to feel this aspect from last week Saturday night (March 27th) on, it will be strong until this Wednesday. This aspect could take our connection to our intuition even deeper — if we can allow it.
Spiritual and creative endeavors are highly recommended during this time — especially those involving music or creative writing. This is definitely a highly imaginative time. As best as you can, go with the flow and — just for now — let go of wanting to figure it all out.
The highest vibration of this aspect is idealistic, highly intuitive and romantic; on a lower level vibration, we might not see reality clearly and we might easily feel overwhelmed. We might get confused or disappointed; things might seem a little foggy, especially when it comes to communication, processing information, public transportation or daily traffic.
Ask yourself: What do I listen to? Could I be still — enough to listen to my heart? My intuition? Might I hear subtle and loving messages if I did? What might support me in trusting, relaxing, and going with the flow, as messages come through from within?
Check in with others before signing any documents or making long-term decisions for those three days: get reality checks! As best as you can, let go and let flow 😉 On the other hand, trust the divine timing of things and have faith that everything will turn out exactly as it needs to.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 18-24 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini or Sagittarius? If so, you are more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo or Pisces (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Neptune rules Pisces).
