Are you feeling all the Virgo energy in the air these days? Virgo is known for being precise, very structured and organized and knows exactly what happens when. But what do you do when you have energy like we had this week with Venus in Virgo opposing Neptune in Pisces, Jupiter coming up to a square with Neptune? This week's energy caught me by surprise. I felt a lot of judgement come up. Which led to me feeling irritated and annoyed and impatient because things were not working out exactly like... Read more

My first exposure to the stars was as a child, when my father and I would go to the terrace on top of our home and he would point out the constellations to me. I still remember the belt of Orion that was so easy to spot. He also had a small card that had the shapes of the constellations printed out. It was tattered and torn from use. But it was treasure to me, and I referred to it often, trying to match the shapes on the paper, with the shapes in the sky, feeling great joy when I did! Those memo... Read more
I'm amazed at how consistently the universe gives us opportunities to let go of the stuff holding us back, so that our true beautiful self can emerge Apart from the 2 big transits this week (Jupiter and Uranus turning direction), and the moon doing its monthly tour of Capricorn to meet Saturn/Pluto/South Node, we have the Sun Venus conjunction that just happened a few hours ago, ahead of the Aquarius full moon tomorrow.

On Aug 11th, 2 planets turn direction. Jupiter stations direct after being retrograde for 4 months, at 14 degrees 30 deg minutes Sagittarius and Uranus stations retrograde at 6 degrees 37 minutes Taurus.

These moments allow us to take note of what may have escaped our view before. It allows us to tap deep into the moment to see many viewpoints and p... Read more
