The future never arrives, but it doesn't abandon us completely. Motion. Motion! All motion is a kind of falling into the unknown. All motion leans toward an idea that is unsecured. You are trusting a trajectory that hasn't proven itself yet. You are moving toward a state that hasn't solidified. All this risk, this hope. It's beautiful.

You are joy and sorrow. Confidence and fear. Logic and chaos. No need to simplify yourself to be consistent or to be acceptable. Live in the tension of the "coincidentia oppositorum." Be kind and angry; strong and needy. You can be confident and uncertain. You don't have to exile one side to keep the other. The contradictions are not a flaw; ...Read more

Between the lunacy of the lunar aspects and the heavy tension hanging on the Jupiter-Neptune square, we need the kindness that compounds. To bring someone water before they ask, to say the tender thing, the minor fix, the major laugh ... Gestures that lower stress and lighten the mood ripple out with gentle but ever-wider impact to significant...Read more

This reality is one of contrast. We know we are awake because we've been asleep. We know we are attracted because we've been repelled. We know vitality because we've also known exhaustion. The Mars transit through Virgo will emphasize integration in the name of health. Our power grows when we accept both sides of life's contrasts.

Yesterday brought tension. Today brings trines. A brief, intentional reflection is called for. Look back, not to dwell but to gather insight.

And trust that your best decisions, growth and experiences are still ...Read more

What do challenge, competition, status and strategy have to do with a day that honors fathers? Everything. Two squared aspects provide the paternal scaffolding in the astral backdrop, highlighting the quiet pressure many fathers feel to provide, protect and perform.

On this day when the moon aligns with Pluto and then squares Venus, life is like organizing a closet. You build and build and just as something starts to feel orderly, you also have to watch out for the weight of it all. Otherwise, the shelves collapse. Don't just stack; assess. The goal isn't perfection; it's sustainability. That way, what ...Read more

Once upon a Norse Myth, Loki, the trickster god, crashed a feast where 12 other gods were feasting, which caused such chaos and disaster that the number 13 became unlucky forever after. But not to Taylor Swift, who was born on the 13th, turned 13 on Friday the 13th and, along with legions of others, claims 13 as her lucky number. What about ...Read more

Creativity has its place -- but not everywhere. Don't burn your brilliance solving already-solved problems. Whatever you're trying to do -- build a habit, launch a project, handle a relationship -- someone else has done it. Chaotic lunar antics (including squares, a trine and an opposition) call for a strategy of efficiency. Use the roadmap. ...Read more

The universe is expanding at somewhere shy of 50 miles a second, and we're moving right along with it -- the sun, the moon, and you, as much a part of the expansion as any element in the universe. And yet, with all the commotion, somehow there's still only one moment, and that moment is always now. The Strawberry Moon offers "now" at peak ...Read more

Between two planets in the early degrees of the sign of domesticity and tomorrow's full moon in Sagittarius, there's a sense of getting into position at a race's starting line.

Lucky Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, likes to spend about a year in a sign and takes almost 12 years to make a complete orbit around the sun. Today's sign change from outgoing Gemini to homey Cancer is a bit like a parent calling the children in for a family dinner. It's a call to wash up and nourish ourselves, as well as ...Read more

Mercury gives Jupiter a lucky handshake, then leads the way to Cancer with Jupiter hot on the trail. These cosmic omens of good fortune align word and deed, walk and talk. Life is so much simpler when we can trust ourselves and others to say as we do and do as we say. The easiest way to accomplish it, of course, is truth, integrity and follow-...Read more

Reframing the past is the theme of this lunar square to Pluto. It's not about denying what happened, but realizing the way we tell the story can shape how we feel and how we move forward. Just remember, no one's story is set in stone. The same facts can yield a more empowering narrative by adjusting the lens until the past supports who we're ...Read more

Language shapes reality. Speak with hope ...Read more

The moon and Mercury are at odds, challenging our focus. Do the big things first, the things that matter, because there might not be time for much else. Of course, to prioritize effectively you must know what's important and not just important to one person, even if that person is you. No, effectiveness is recognizing what will be important to...Read more

A passionate lunar trine to Venus reminds us that truth isn't just about what happened -- it's about how people experienced what happened.
