Today Venus will say goodbye to Leo and hello Virgo, the sign of purity, service, and organization. If we’re playing by the old astrology rules, Virgo isn’t exactly the best placement for Venus.

We’re in the build up to Tuesday’s opposition between Mars and Neptune. What does surrender mean to you? What does it mean to accept that we can’t control everything? That there are forces greater than us, like a tidal wave? What does it mean to have compassion for those who are suffering? To choose forgiveness

Yesterday marked the half way point of Mercury Retrograde, which began on September 17. I haven’t talked much about it because, honestly, there’s just been so many other things going on. Like Saturn in Sagittarius, a solar eclipse in Virgo, and a lunar eclipse in Aries — all marquee astrological events. Yet, nevertheless, Mercury has

The Moon is in Taurus today, reminding us all of the need for solid ground and stability after a rocky past few days of eclipse shake ups. Taurus is an earth sign. It’s primal urge is to seek shelter, comfort, and the resources needed to feel secure in this world. As a result we may
