This week the big news is the Full Moon in Gemini conjunct Mars, currently retrograde. Emotions will be running high, but don't worry if you say something you didn't mean, you can always take it back.

This week may have started off as an emotional tidal wave, but as the week comes to a close you might regain that pep in your step. Venus and Mercury enter the fun time sign of Sagittarius, offering us breadcrumbs into what I like to call the “holiday party season.”

I’m back! Consider this our catch-up session.

Last week you may have been caught off guard by the cosmic mash-up of Mars, Uranus, and the North Node. This week that electric energy gets reignited by the Full Moon in Aquarius and you may be feeling an urgency to get on the fast track to your hopes and dreams.

The New Moon in Leo brings with it a slew of combustible, vulnerable, and passionate energy. It helps you have the courage to make the hard decisions that will pave the way for your destiny.

The Full Moon arrives on Wednesday at 2:38 pm ET, but you’ll be feeling the intensity all week. The moon in Capricorn wants to be pragmatic, practical, and stick to the plan, but the heavens are feeling tumultuous.

This week the planetary energy moves from mostly fire + air to mostly water + earth. After pushing energy outward and screaming at the top of our lungs, we dial it back, lick our wounds, and process our feelings. You can’t run at level 10 forever, sometimes you have to pull back, reset, and prepare for the battle ahead.

Emotions run high this week. The New Moon in Cancer occurs on Tuesday and it comes with a square to Jupiter, amplifying the emotional vulnerability inherent to any Cancer moon.

The Sun has entered the sign of Cancer and that means it’s the Summer Solstice; the halfway point of the year. This time of year is perfect for reflecting on what home means to you. Revisit and reconnect with the people with whom you feel the deepest sense of belonging and unconditional love.

With 4 planets in their home signs answering to no one, you’ve got all the tools you need to move forward and shake off the heavy burdens of eclipse season and Mercury retrograde. This Full Moon reminds you each year what is true. If you’re honest with yourself and with others this week, things will move forward quickly.

Mars in Aries will be amplified by his meeting with Jupiter. Use the energy wisely and avoid any hotheads in your life. If you need to break through some walls of self-doubt or inertia this transit could give you the confidence and motivation to “just do it”.

Eclipse hangover anyone? The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio last Sunday was an intense excavation of your emotional state. Scorpio can be secretive and private. The energy of the Scorpion doesn’t show all its cards, so we might be unpacking this one for a while.

Jupiter enters Aries for the first time since 2011! I mentioned in April that you’re preparing to embark upon a heroine’s journey… Well, it’s finally arrived. Sort of. You see, we’re still in the eye of the storm, aka eclipse season.

On the heels of the Solar Eclipse, Venus enters Aries, and she’s coming in hot! This is not her favorite sign, as Aries is the sign of the warrior, not the lover. You can expect tempers to flare and passions to fly as Venus in Aries can be impulsive or aggressive.

Every 6 months we get to go on a magical, mystical ride courtesy of the eclipses. They come in pairs (sometimes triples), and always are a force for change. Sometimes the change is an internal shift, an aha moment. Sometimes the change is an obvious life event.

Jupiter and Neptune join together in Pisces for their every 13-year meet-up, but this is the first time since 1856 they are meeting in the sign of Pisces. This transit inspires you to dream bigger, feel deeper, and surrender even more. Easter weekend brings a potent Full Moon in Libra opposite the Sun in Aries, creating a T-Square with Pluto in Capricorn. Whenever Pluto is involved we’re invited to shed an old skin.

The theme of the week is small steps in a particular direction will take you far. This week began a new 2-year cycle thanks to Mars and Saturn. When these two planets join they favor concentrated efforts and small steps in a particular direction.

This is the week our astrological New Year starts to get going. The zodiacal year technically begins at the Spring Equinox, but we don’t really feel that Aries style “get up and go” until the New Moon in Aries occurs. What adventure or challenge are you preparing to take on right now? What will be your heroine’s journey?

Spring has officially sprung! The Sun entered Aries on Sunday and a new zodiacal year has officially begun. But before you get too excited, we still have Mercury caught in the waves of Pisces flow.

Feeling foggy, spacey, caught in a time warp? Yup! It’s Pisces season, but not for much longer. This Friday the Full Moon in Virgo puts a final exclamation point on the season of the two fish and Aries season kicks off on Sunday.
