Jupiter and Venus are literally showering you with abundance and plenty right now — so let’s clear the obstacles so you can receive what’s truly yours with ease and grace.

The North and South Nodes — known in Vedic astrology as Rahu and Ketu — have been surfacing constantly in client work lately. And I’ve started to think: maybe we’ve been hacking the whole “release and let go” thing backwards.

The year ahead calls for deep self-reflection and alignment of your beliefs with your actions. Discover how to tap into your intuition and manifest your dreams in 2025.

Today, June 11th, Mercury finally breaks free of Taurus for home in Gemini today and Pluto retrogrades back in Capricorn. However, underlying these two ingresses is Saturn in Pisces slowing down significantly this week, getting ready to retrograde on June 17th and remain so for four months — which it does every year.

Take the moment to enjoy finishing up a three week audit of how you use Mercury — the planet of connection that’s primarily responsible for connecting your internal and external realities.

It’s been a weird week. Monday’s Mercury Cazimi seems to have played out very literally for almost everyone I spoke with — which makes sense with Mercury being in very literal Taurus.

What has this Taurus/Scorpio eclipse story been about for you? Can you sum it up in one sentence that will both fully tell the story while being teasing enough to intrigue someone to watch?

As I write this post, the Sun and Jupiter are about to meet in the sky in what’s called a “cazimi” — a term derived from the Arabic that means “in the heart of the sun”.

The Moon is a planet that I don’t spend a lot of time talking about on print but have found myself devoting whole sessions to helping a client get better clarity on their own; but, with the eclipses just around the corner, it’s time to remedy that.

As the sun claws back its dominion over the sky from the night, so the soul’s voyage moves from the primordial waters of Pisces into the hungry fires of Aries.

Aries compels planets that occupy it to act impulsively, disregarding consequences, believing wholeheartedly, passionately that the courageous action defines them.

What does a person do when a dream that has finally been born into reality must die?

The Sun and Saturn are currently in what’s called “planetary war” in jyotish and combustion (for Saturn) in Western astrology.

Venus brings us eternity in a carefully crafted moment. Venus makes reality a dream and dreams reality.

Jupiter wants you to learn faith and pray and realize that you are subject to forces greater and stronger than your will and desires.

When ruminating on your goals for next year, continually keep in mind: Meaning, Honor, Service & Inspiration.

My eyes are on Jupiter as he slowly rolls towards Aries. We’re in the final halcyon days of a vacation by the sea before knowing the real world lies on the other side of a long, arduous set of plane rides.

As of this writing, Jupiter FINALLY went direct yesterday short after the New Moon in Sagittarius perfected — which makes this a perfect time to lean into Jupiter’s favorite jams — gratitude and giving!

In addition to the eclipses in Scorpio and Taurus, the Sun, Mercury, and Venus have all had to run the gauntlet of the South Node in the last couple of weeks.

Mars, the planet that, at its most basic, signifies our energy discharge into material reality, will spend 7 months in Gemini, starting Saturday, August 20, 2022…
