Hello friends. I am still recovering from a back injury so that is why I wasn't able to post the astrology transits for May. Hopefully I'll be able to resume in June.

For those interested in magic(k) and astrology, I do have reference sheets on the planets, days of the week, and their correspondennces.

The April 2026 Astrology column is up. We're about to have five planets in Aries!

Since last month's solstice, I've been super busy between a large number or reading requests and preparing for a funeral. I'm almost caught up with readings, so I have a couple openings for astrology and tarot readings.

A full tastrology reading helps you unlock the blueprint that you were born with and reveals important themes that are coming up for you in the next 12 months, using several types of analysis. We'll see what months are likely to bring luck/opportunity, and which months may be more challenging. You can also ask about specific areas of your life, such as if you are planning a career change or a big relocation.

My popular tarot reading is the 6 Month Overview that looks at home, relationships, business/career, achievements, and challenges for the next few months.

I also have a two-question reading to focus on your specific questions about love, career, spiritual development, etc.

A few of my readings are on sale for the next two weeks:

The moon is in Ta**us today. ♉️ This is where it is exalted (honored), because the Ta**us moon allows us to be fully present with our emotions and our feminine energy. We feel deeply, but we don’t run from those feelings. Ta**us is usually grounded, centered, comfortable. It is a sign ruled by Venus (hence the connection to femininity, nurturing, sensuality, and comfort). Whether you identify as male, female, or non-binary, we all have these qualities within us. How can you be present with your emotions today? How can you embrace the nurturing and sensual side of yourself? What does your body need to feel comfortable and safe?

How are you all holding up? This weekend has been a bit strange (and rough). Looking at the astrology transits, I can only assume it is due to Mercury Retrograde conjunct Mars (which will be exact tomorrow). This is adding some drama, confusion, miscommunication, and general mishaps into the air.

Yesterday, my partner and I had to deal with various car-related issues, surprise bills, and just small things going wrong. This morning, I caught the bus and my tap card wasn't working, and I didn't have any cash on hand. Then, I distractedly left a gift bag on the bus by mistake. This was supposed to be a gift for a family friend that we rarely get to see. Some of my friends have also experienced technical problems, cancelled trips, payment systems going down, and just the sense of general mishaps.

I tried to look at the transits to make sense of it and the only thing I could find was that: Mars cozying up to retrograde Mercury in the confusion of Pisces. Mercury retrograde already is a time of miscommunications and delayed plans, and then adding the Mars in Pisces on top of that just makes it more confusing and tumultuous. Mars is the planet of action, drive, assertiveness and aggressiveness. Mercury is communication, technology, machinery, neighbors, siblings, and along with Mars and Uranus, is connected to vehicles and short-term travel.

Those of you with the sun or moon in Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo, and Pisces, will likely feel this transit more strongly. If that is you, hang in there!! This will pass in a few days, and Mercury will go direct on March 20th. Just under one week left to go!

The March astrology column will probably be posted late. My partner and I lost a dear friend yesterday and we are heartbroken.

I'd written a column about the Saturn & Neptune conjunction in Aries last week, but hadn't published it because I was dealing with health appointments and just not in the headspace to proofread and revise it. I just posted it anyway, mostly unedited, so there is something up until I'm ready to write the next column.

Please hold your loved ones close, as you never know when it may be the last time you see them.

Tomorrow, Mars conjuncts Pluto in Aquarius, but this energy has been building over the last few days. Mars-Pluto alignments tend to be intense, passionate, and at times, aggravating/angry. People may consciously or unconsciously feel on edge now (whether due to personal stress, work, or events in the news). If we don’t have healthy outlets for stress and anger, then this is a pressure cooker of tension and frustration that could erupt. It is super important over the next 3 days to listen, pause, then respond rather than react instinctively. This is because Mars-Pluto conjunctions (and oppositions) activate our fight or flight response.

On the positive side, this could ignite our passions and also show us what is NOT working, so that we can finally take steps to change it. We may also be mindful of our need for freedom and instinctively push back against attempts to violate our boundaries or confine us into a box.

Do something physical now - walk, run, play a sport, or vent our frustrations onto paper via art or poetry. Just don’t over-do it as the impulsiveness of Mars could cause accidents if we rush. Take deep breaths, hot baths/showers, and know that this will pass in a few days.
