Transiting Mars enters Aries
Tuesday, April 30 - Saturday, June 8, 2024
Mars is happy to be in Aries, as this is one of the signs he rules. How interesting for us to have transiting Mars/Aries and transiting Venus/Taurus both dignified at the same time! Can’t wait to see how this plays out for us all….
This entire transit is very energetic, full of piss and vinegar, punchy, enthusiastic, fanatical, courageous, competitive, adventurous, and so forth. If you have some major project to launch, requiring hard work - or a fitness/health issue to address - this is a great time for it. How it may play out over Mars’ areas:
Physical strength - this isn’t an enduring kind of strength, more like bursts of energy that power us through the task. Like the ability to lift a car to rescue someone from underneath it.
Energy levels - again, bursts. This isn’t usually a placement known for its endurance and staying power. We really have to beware burnout and overestimating what we can do.
Sexuality - very frank and straightforward. Needs to learn how to take “no” for an answer. Doesn’t play games.
How we go after what we want - the shortest distance between two points is a straight line! No detours! Get me where I want to be/go right now! Competitive. A lot of swearing during the driving, insults shouted out at the other drivers.
What this transit may turn out to be, if we put the work in, is a way to elevate how we express our natal Mars. There’s always room for improvement (which is a big piece of understanding Mars and Aries).
Friday, May 3 - Saturday, May 4:
Mars/Aries sextile Pluto Rx/Aquarius, 2°06’
Mars/Aries trine Pallas Athene Rx/Sagittarius, 3°22’
This is starting out with the very best of intentions!! We want to be smarter about how we “Mars,” and we want the changes to endure.
Saturday, May 18 - Mars/Aries conjunct North Node/Aries, opposite South Node/Libra, 13°33’. We can get valuable insight into being more independent and brave. We have the right to be alive.
Sunday, May 26 - Wednesday, May 29:
Sunday, May 26 - Mars/Aries square Vesta/Cancer, 19°47’
Monday, May 27 - Mars/Aries square Ceres Rx/Capricorn, 21°01’
Wednesday, May 29 - Mars/Aries conjunct Chiron/Aries, 22°09’
Spread over a few days, we experience some resistance. Maybe our families aren’t supportive of our efforts - we could lose focus, or have one of those dreaded detours. If you’re going to be a warrior, you’re going to get wounded; this is the case whether you’re trying to lose weight, or trying to change the world for the better. We have to learn how to deal with that.
Sunday, June 2 - Mars/Aries conjunct Eris/Aries, 25°18’. Mars ends this transit with a fusion of its energies with those of Eris. How I wish the name “Xena” would have stuck for Eris! In Xena’s TV show, per Wikipedia, “the series depicts her on a quest to redeem herself from her dark past by using her formidable fighting skills to help people.” Which is absolutely higher-ground Aries.

Stay well, Scorpio ascendants in the annual year.. It's okay, this time will pass..
The presence of Uranus in your first house indicates the presence of sudden thoughts on an unplanned day, month, and time. As if a light came on out of nowhere. It is a sign that carries a start towards a desire that was born of the moment.
This aforementioned matter will continue with you throughout the year. In changing your appearance, modifying your appearance, registering in a club, performing an operation, or something related to your appearance. Sudden thoughts follow thoughts. In one of my years, Uranus was in my first house, and without planning, I got braces, and this is an example.
When solar Leo rising , regardless of the energy that will accompany the person throughout the year. From new and diverse interests, from a love of appearing on the scene, an irresistible desire for public appearance, and the necessary boldness and confidence that they will possess in an unusual and exceeding manner. Their fame, wide acceptance, and great popularity.
However, I find that the Leo is closely linked to the emergence of a new, exciting and special emotional relationship. The Leo sign in the year is not free of romantic relationships for you, and the ignition of the romantic and emotional side in your yearly horoscope that bears the Leo horoscope.
If you have solar mars conjunction sun in the 12th house, you are preparing to discover enemies that you thought were family or friends, and often hostility that is spiritual harm or deep pain, but you are sure to emerge from it stronger spiritually.
The best year in my life was in the Ascendant of Sagittarius, and Sagittarius is my second home in AD. Oh God, I can’t tell you how I was focused on my success and studies. I had a lot of freedom, I made many friends, and I was very social, and the friendships I made in the Ascendant of Sagittarius are still with me ❤️
A year in which the ruler of your fourth house is on the 9th could be a year in which you travel or move abroad.( I have this next year so if i actually moved I’ll let you know)
When Mercury is in conjunction with the midheaven, you may have to travel for work.
I have also found this to be true when the yearly ruler is with the midheaven in the ninth house.💗💗
The presence of ascendant in the sign of scorpio or the presence of Pluto in your first house. They are two sites that touch the self in a detailed way. Through these two connotations, there is a transition from something to something new. As if it was bidding farewell to an old version and receiving a new version. It indicates that there is an intense change that you will live with and on these basis you will begin to receive the new version of you, the good or bad of which depends on your reception of it.💗
When you have a year in which you have a close ascendant or Pluto in your first house, this story will begin to happen to you. A story of your change and change, and it will be a year that supports change. It supports transition, supports modification, whatever the situation may be, whether in your appearance or outside. Try to embrace the changes and make them positive for you.💗
love u 💟..

🧚🏼♀️✨Gemini Season🌙
Venus in Gemini- Venus in Gemini is quick, changeable. In love, there can be much more emphasis on communication and thinking. More gameplay and attractions. There can also be a little restless, craving fun and adventure more than anything. During this season, expect your mind to be buzzing with ideas, planning adventures, or untangling intellectual puzzles.
Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication and connection, this air-sign energy can take on a chatty, highly verbal, extra-extroverted shine. This is also an occasion for seeking out a variety of new experiences. Take a different route to work, talk to strangers, or simply watch a movie that ordinarily might not interest you. Don’t imagine that you must travel to the ends of the Earth to find newness. The downside is that this can be a difficult time to attempt work that requires deep, sustained focus. Be honest with yourself about your capacity right now, and avoid making big commitments you’re unlikely to be able to keep.
On May 30, the moon will be in Pisces, which means that will be more compassionate and comfortable energy. You can travel to a place by the sea or be somewhere more dreamy and seaside. Sun conj Venus- you can feel more inspired for relationships and other people.

Moon conj neptune- emotions can be more dreamlike. This day is going to be very positive and you will feel great energy.

On June 3, Mercury will enter the sign of Gemini. Communication will be much more playful, all over the place. It may be the time that may demand attention and adjustments to challenges in life. Focus is required over familial matters, emotional outbursts that can disturb domestic peace and prosperity. life.Your innovation of ideas will be strong and with a purpose; you will complete your assignments/commitments with dedication; but vigilance over each prospect is necessary.
On June 6, moon will enter the gemini. New moon will be in sign of gemini. The Gemini new moon is the time to set new aims for your beliefs and friendships. New ideas can inspire and invigorate you, so be open-minded and ready to learn. Get curious! In friendships, decide to give and receive support. Begin to feel connected to others in a new way. Learn about yourself through your friendships. Moon will be conj Mercury- Which is great to express your thoughts and express your intentions on the paper because Mercury is ruler by communication mind and the way you think so is actually great time to set your intentions and write them down. You can also express your feelings more easily and freely. Moon will be conj Venus- It's also great time to spend the day with people that are actually close to you or you feel more enlightened to. U can also be in more loving mood and be more sexually attractive than usual. Fortunately, you are more likely to attract love and beauty under this influence. Moon will be square Saturn-Relationship problems will more likely be due to your emotional immaturity than anything your partner has done.
On June 9, Mars will enter Taurus. If until now it was a fast and bold energy, now the energy will slow down more and things will become more serious and stable. Mars in Taurus is slow and not so bold, it makes slow and deliberate movements, so the energy will also be more like that. In astrology, Mars is the planet of drive, ambition, and courage; when expressed through the fixed earth filter of Taurus, this drive and ambition become very groundedand very practical. Sensible, even, which is not often a word associated with Mars. The Mars in Taurus transit can be very defensive, and in a difficult situation, this is definitely energy you would want on your side.
On June 12
Mercury square Saturn can bring negative thinking that leads to pessimism, fear, worry, apprehension, indecision, procrastination, sadness and loneliness. A larger view of the world must replace narrow-mindedness and paying too much attention to minute details.
On June 17, mercury & venus will enter cancer. Mercury in Cancer means that communication can be more emotional, sensitive, deep. More can happen in connection with family and relatives. It also brings a more emotional approach to people and understanding on a more compassionate level. Mercury will be conjunct Venus good for relationships and conversations.

Venus in Cancer it brings relationships orientation towards loved ones and people who are close to you. More feeling at home and during this time you can spend more time with people who give you warmth and joy. You can go to someone's house more or spend time in a comfortable room. During this time, you can be more exposed to wanting to be in your comfort zone. Mental and social overstimulation gives way to cozy exchanges across the breakfast nook, and the intimacy of a small group may be preferable to the chaos of “everyone.” This wouldn’t be the worst time for a romantic (or platonic) getaway for two. And if you’re stuck on where to go, nostalgia-fueled reveries to the places of your past will tug at your heartstrings.
On June 22, there will be full moon in the sign of Capricorn. It’s called Strawberry Moon. Capricorns are rule followers with a highly developed moral compass. From a young age, it is impressed upon them that their whole sense of worth and meaning is based on their ability to hunker down and force their way to the finish line. Capricorns collect responsibility. And they always seem to take it all on. Capricorns need to be the one to fix everything. Responsibility is their natural state. Moon will be oppostie mercury & venus- Thoughts and emotions will be more difficult to balance. It will be difficult for you to emotionally harmonize with your feelings and thoughts. But It's a good day to get things off your chest, expressing and releasing any feelings that have been building up in self-containment. Moon will trine Mars- you will be able to react impulsively emotionally. And made a quick emotional decision. It may come more from the comfort of security and you may be looking more for emotional security and stability.

Energy Update: Mercury Retrograde, August 2024
Starting on August 5th, Mercury enters retrograde 3/4 of 2024. The retrograde runs from 04° Virgo to 21° Leo and makes thrice repeating trines with our Wounded Healer Chiron in Aries and squares to Uranus in Taurus. Retrograde Mercury will also conjunct the Sun and Venus once (as it does most retrograde cycles) and sextile Mars in Gemini once, as well.
The Basics
Mercury, our planet of communication, technology, and travel, is the fastest-moving planet in our solar system and retrogrades 3 to 4 times every year. This means that Mercury’s retrograde cycle is “business as usual” and isn’t something that should be feared but it is a change in the energy signature of one of our personal planets, so it’s worth paying attention and making adjustments where necessary.
Retrogrades don’t mean that the planet ACTUALLY is moving backward, of course. It is a perspective shift in our perception of the planetary movement through our skies. In this way, our perspectives and perceptions can get a bit twisted during these times and it is easy to miss key details or communicate ineffectively.
During Mercury’s retrograde, Mercury traces its path backward in our skies and it is considered better to go over your work rather than start something new. Mercury passes over these degrees in the sky thrice: the first time during its pre-retrograde shadow, the second time while it moves backward during its retrograde, and again a third time while it moves forward in its post-retrograde shadow. Because of this, we all get the cosmic opportunity to relearn and refocus on certain things that are going awry in our lives.
By looking at the degrees of Mercury’s retrograde and comparing it to your birth chart, you can understand how Mercury’s retrograde cycle might affect you. If you don’t want to do this yourself, you can always purchase a Mercury retrograde transit chart from me on Kofi.
Mercury retrogrades affect some people more than others. By order of significance, these people are most likely to be affected by a Mercury retrograde:
If you have Sun, Moon, Ascendant in Gemini and Virgo, or Mercury closely conjunct (within 2°) to your Sun, Moon, or Ascendant
If your natal Mercury was in retrograde or out of bounds
If the current retrograde crosses over your Sun, Moon, or Ascendant (in conjunction) or makes a square or opposition
If the current retrograde crosses over your Mercury, Venus, or Mars or makes a square or opposition with them
If the current retrograde makes a trine with one of your personal planets or a sextile to your Sun, Moon, or Ascendant
If you work in a job that involves technology, communication, or travel or are currently undergoing a task that involves one of these domains during this retrograde cycle
If you live with, are in a relationship with, or closely work with a person who meets the above criteria
One can assume that the more of these factors in play, the stronger you may experience the effects of a Mercury retrograde cycle. This isn’t to say that what you experience will be bad or wrong – some people experience a lot of freedom from Mercury’s journey. The more open you are willing to give up control and stay open to the ever-changing landscape of a Mercury cycle, the easier it will be.
The Nitty Gritty
Now that we’ve gone over the basics let’s take a look at the specifics of THIS Mercury retrograde cycle. Mercury will retrograde backward from 04° Virgo to 21° Leo. This puts the stressors of this retrograde on the early mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) and late fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius). The switchover from Fixed to Mutable signs can be viewed as the energy of relaxation, both of effort and intent. It’s important that we need both types of energy in our lives (both fixed/controlled and mutable/relaxed); this retrograde cycle is likely to bring up issues of imbalance between these two differing energy signatures. You may find yourself stuck on one side of this equation (all relaxed and unable to accomplish anything or all fixed and unable to stand down).
Mercury will interact with all of our other personal planets (the Sun, Moon, and Venus through conjunction and Mars in sextiles), which shows that this retrograde will take on a more personal nature. Although we experience Mercury’s retrogrades 3-4 times a year, not all of them pack as much punch as others. This Mercury cycle will be inside our homes and likely impact our daily lives and our interactions with our Others.
Additionally, Mercury will make three trines to Chiron in Aries (sitting on top of that touchy point from our total solar eclipse back in April) and three squares to Uranus in Taurus. Unlike our personal planet aspects, these don’t influence our personal lives as directly, but they will impact the general energy of the world at large, which sometimes can trickle into our personal lives. [Note here that if you have personal planets that interact in aspect with these Mercury-Uranus and Mercury-Chiron moments, this may impact you personally.]
Let’s start with Chiron because it’s the energy we’ve already stewed in. Chiron isn’t one of the planets but an asteroid that has caught the interest of many astrologers in recent years. Often called the Wounded Healer, it represents a pain point or an unhealed wound. Back in April, we experienced a Mercury retrograde that coincided with our eclipse season, and during the total solar eclipse, the Sun was conjunct with both Mercury and Chiron. This was a whopper of a day that many people are still reeling from. Although Chiron has kept moving, it is still only 4° from this fate-filled spot. That means that, to a greater or lesser degree, each connection between Mercury and Chiron is another chance for us to revisit this energy.
“Revisit,” being one of the big re’s, is one of the keywords to understanding Mercury retrograde lessons. We are being given a chance to revisit, revise, rework, and reimagine. With Chiron involved, it’s likely to hurt (at least at first). It may feel like too much. But its worth remembering that Chiron isn’t something that happens TO you, it is considered to be a force of strong healing energy working FOR you.
It’s also worth remembering that Mercury will pass over this point with Chiron three times: once in forward motion during its pre-retrograde shadow, a second while moving backward in retrograde, and a third time in forward motion during its post-retrograde shadow.
Newsflash: you don’t have to get it right the first time through.
A common metaphor for imagining retrograde cycles is as a lesson or “hole” in the ground with which we must fall in/pass over/encounter trice to gain the full experience of the situation.
The story unfolds something like this:
Oh, there’s a hole in the ground! I fell into it because I didn’t know that it was there. It’s not my fault. (pre-retrograde shadow phase)
Oh, there’s a hole in the ground. I fell into it again. I did know it was there…maybe I should learn to avoid this hole? (retrograde phase)
And, if all goes well: Oh hey, that’s a hole in the ground! It’s the same hole I fell into before. I know how to walk around this now. (post-retrograde phase)
If the solar eclipse in April passed by uneventfully, you may find that this Mercury-Chiron set of trines also does. If the eclipse was especially difficult, consider this a chance to gain better insight into what happened and why. We can re-frame these transits to be for our own good by being open to the experiences of Mercury’s underworld journeys.
Lastly, we should discuss Mercury square Uranus. Mercury and Uranus have a lot in common—they both involve and control our brain processes to a certain point. If Mercury is the thinking brain, Uranus can be viewed as pure inspiration. Mercury is quick-moving and changeable; Uranus is slow-moving but enacts drastic and lasting change. Many modern astrologers view Uranus as the higher octave of Mercurial energy; it is Mercury’s energy infused with the beyond.
For the most part, Uranus’s energy simply happens to us. It is the lightning bolt in the Tower card, the hurricane that washes away a whole floodplain, or the volcano that awakens to bring destruction and rebirth. What I mean by this is that it is so far beyond us that it can often feel catastrophic, but – like the eclipses – Uranus has a way of blowing open opportunities that we couldn’t even have imagined. We are all stuck little humans who don’t like to change our own lives and sometimes something beyond us seems to reach down and make that change FOR us so that we are forced to move.
We don’t get a choice in what happens to us in situations like this, but we do get a choice in how we respond.
Two out of these three Mercury square Uranus days are full moons, which puts extra emphasis on their energy signatures. On one of these two days (8/19), the Sun in Leo will be conjunct to Mercury and also square to Uranus in Taurus, making a fixed t-square in the sky. Of the three days, this is the one to watch out for and potentially lie low through. The other two dates are days to encourage divine inspiration if that is your thing.
Watch out for how you speak during these rough squares, as misunderstandings will run rampant, and tempers may be at an all-time low. Uranus is never a patient planet, but in Taurus, it can become a raging bull in about six seconds flat. Give yourself and your others as much grace as you can during this time. Shut your mouth entirely, perhaps, and work on listening (something Mercury in egoic Leo definitely can have a problem with at times).
Any time a retrograde bridges the cusp between signs, you can guess that we will need to dig deep into the differences between the two signs somehow. Virgo is our mutable earth sign, often concerned with work, perfectionism, and effort. Leo is our fixed fire sign, more likely to be the lazy lion basking in the sun while the gruntlings do the work. Remember here, there is no judgment on these energies: there is a time to do the work and a time to bask in the Sun. The problem comes into play when you only do one and not the other.
Standard Mercury retrograde warnings apply:
Technology tends to go a bit wonky, so save your work often and proofread twice before you hit send on an important document. Mercury retrograde is considered the ideal time to edit: reread, rewrite, rework. Travel will take twice as long and almost inevitably involve detours—pack your patience and determination to enjoy the ride. If a person from your past shows up again, look into the unfinished business, but don’t expect it to last past Mercury stations direct. Mercury is a trickster: if it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
All that glitters is never gold during Mercury’s retrograde cycles, but Fool’s Gold can be its own reward.

If it's a harmonious aspect (Semi sextile, sextile,trine, conjunct, quintile, bi-quintile) between these 2, you need to give love to others, to give love to the ones you think they deserve to be loved. But you also need to love yourself and to be happy with your own person
If it's in a harsh aspect (Semi square, square, opposition, conjunct, quincunx) between these 2, you need to learn to receive love from others, because it might be hard for you to feel love, to get affection from others :(, you also need to love yourself to start being happy with your own body, mind, heart and soul.

♣️Juno (3) asteroid in Air Signs (Gemini,Libra, Aquarius) can find a really attractive partner who they can talk all day with, is something very unique in their partners 🥹♣️
♣️ Can we talk about how Midheaven and Juno harmonious aspects (Semi sextile, Bi-quintile, Quintile, sextile, Trine, conjunction) show that a lot of people would like you as a couple?🥹 A lot of people will love you 2 together 😲
If it's an harsh aspect to Midheaven (Semi Square, Opposition, Conjunction, Square) be careful because people might be very jealous of you. Especially Juno - Midheaven conjunction because is the strongest 🥹
How people with Mercury in Air signs type messages so fast 😭😭, like they can spam you with messages just in 2 minutes
With Love, Harmoonix❣️

Full Moon in Aries square Mars in Cancer -
The importance of being aware of your emotions
Throughout the year, we experience several Full Moons in different signs, with each month bringing a new experience, a new interplay of planetary energies. These energies do indeed affect us, though we may not always notice.
The Moon is one of the most interesting planets to focus on because of its fast movement and constant change. It perfectly symbolizes the fluctuations we deal with in our emotional realm.
The Moon represents habits, phases, routines, our inner world, and emotions. It also connects to our emotional roots, ancestry, and so on.
For today’s post and insight, we’ll focus on the first five aspects I mentioned: phases, habits, routines, inner world, and emotions.
During a Full Moon, as I’ve previously mentioned on the blog, the Moon reaches its peak of energy.
How and where this energy manifests depends on the sign it’s in (for everyone) and the house where you have that sign in your chart. Additionally, it’s important to observe the aspects affecting your transits.
There’s also a crucial collective perspective to consider: the planetary aspects that affect everyone.
For this Full Moon in Aries, one aspect caught my attention: Moon square Mars.
This aspect brings up some very EMOTIONAL nuances. Not only because the Moon is involved, but also because Mars is in Cancer, a sign ruled by the Moon.
Additionally, there’s an interesting dynamic where the Moon, ruler of Cancer, is in Aries, and the square happens with Mars, ruler of Aries, which is currently in Cancer.
Guidance and recommendations, the focus of this post:
→ Pay attention to your emotions.
→ Understand that your emotions are not you.
→ At the same time, acknowledge the inner triggers that are surfacing along with these intense emotions.
→ Don’t react or make hasty decisions based solely on emotions like fear or strong feelings.
→ Use Aries energy to start something new, or continue something already in motion. However, avoid decisions driven by emotional nuances (e.g., impulsively acting on something you fear unless you are very clear, at peace, confident, and certain of what you’re doing).
Allow your feelings to flow, let them out. Repressing them will only make things worse.
However, be mindful of how you do this. Avoid discussing your emotions too directly right now. Find a healthier and more 'isolated' way to express them.
After the Moon in Aries, we’ll have the Moon in Taurus. Though it will no longer be a Full Moon, we’ll enter the Waning Gibbous phase, a time for reflection, introspection, and analysis.
At this time, many will feel the desire to ground themselves, and some might try to control their emotions. If you’ve been reckless with your emotions, you might experience regret or guilt that could have been avoided.
Therefore, try to steer clear of emotional atmospheres, especially in complex situations or relationships.
Yes, we should use the energy of Aries, remembering that it’s the sign impacting the Full Moon, but also recognize that a Full Moon brings a lot of energy circulating within the themes of the sign. And here, we also have a square (a tense, challenging aspect!) with Mars in Cancer.
Mars in Cancer
tends to react emotionally. In terms of planetary dignity, Mars is in fall here, meaning its energy doesn’t flow easily. Mars deals with the Cancerian energy, which is more contained, introspective, emotional, and fluctuating. As a result, Mars-related actions, vitality, and reactions fluctuate too. For those with this placement in their natal chart, much depends on their emotional state. It’s something that can be worked on to avoid negative tendencies and experience the positive side of this placement.
With that in mind, it’s crucial to avoid environments, conversations, or situations that make you feel like you "need to act". Be cautious. We’ll be dealing with a lot of EMOTIONAL REACTIVITY.
We need to remember the world we’re living in. It’s a society marked by disconnection from the inner world and emotions, with little self-awareness. There's mental overload and, at the same time, misinformation.
Many experience FOMO (fear of missing out), trying to keep up with everything without knowing if it really adds value, just to meet the need for belonging. There’s a lot of disconnection from both self and others.
When elevated, Cancer represents emotional respect, recognition of emotional states, sensitivity, introspection, empathy, love, and heartfelt service. However, in today’s context, the tendency is to act unconsciously, spilling emotions onto any situation or person, because Aries represents release, activity, reaction, and impulses. Cancer represents emotions… so be mindful of that.
Use this moment to learn more about yourself and your inner world! After all, when elevated, our beloved Aries represents the initial path to self-awareness, the primal impulse to (re)discover oneself as an individual.
Shall we use this to our advantage and that of everyone around us?
I wish you a lot of awareness during this time.
In the next post, I’ll talk about how both the aspect and the Full Moon itself may affect the placements I selected, which will likely feel the impact more:
ASC, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn in Aries and how it correlates with each house.
ASC, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn in Libra
ASC, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn in Cancer
ASC, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn in Capricorn
See you in the next post! Kisses.

tw sexual abuse & diddy
diddy getting outed & raided with the tuesday eclipse on his north node… with his tattoo of ezili dantor on his back. the loa of tuesdays and the protector of women & children. & he’s an avid sexual abuser of women & children.
the back is associated with leo/libra. leo is children, libra/venus is justice. and the back/unseen part of things is ruled by saturn, which is the planet of karmic distribution. tattoos are martian, the planet of protection.
it’s divine timing. bc what the hell was that man thinking. i applaud whatever diviner encouraged his ass to get EZILI DANTOR of ALL loa permanently etched into his skin, because his abuses of children & women will follow him forever.
he’s currently in his seventh house year, the seventh house year is a year dealing with others, fairness, & balance. imo, it’s a karmic house since the seventh is a reflection of the self. what u put out is reflected back to u. he’s also about to enter his eighth house year, the house of inactivity, psychological illness, debts (including karmic).
his mars is also in capricorn at the 29°, which is a universally critical degree. it can show domineering, thoughtlessness, lack of control, impulsiveness, etc.
there’s no confirmation on his ascendant, but i’ve seen people suggest cancer ascendant (with a virgo moon & scorpio sun). that would mean that:
but i could totally see a 10h lord in the 7h, because it shows status is tied to relationships / justice / fairness
i also see charts floating around suggesting that he’s a capricorn ascendant, which i also think makes sense because of:
a first house mars
a 10H in libra shows that the public image is tied to fairness, grace, harmony, & relationships especially to women
my partner was like “maybe a sag rising,” mind u… my partner not an astrologer but they are super intuitive with that 3h scorpio moon so i considered it & lowkey…
pisces eclipse illuminating the 4th would mean that all of the illusions revolving around his private life are dug up. the 4h is the subterranean, it’s the least visible house imo
2h mars in capricorn @ the anaretic degree can show a thirst for power, but the 2h is the gate of hades. it leads to demise (the 8h)
8h lord would be in the 10h, which would show this hidden misdeeds becoming publicized preceding the eclipse in his 4h, since the natal 4h lord would be the eclipsing pisces moon. hope that made sense lol
i often see pisces rising speculation. which, i also could understand because:
this recent full moon lunar eclipse conj his north node illuminated & essentially “exposed�� his heart/spirit/soul. it also exposed the qualities of the greedy, obsessive, manipulative north node
& this isn’t to say all nodal people are this way. but when u don’t know how to moderate the greedy & obsessive nature of the north node, its malefic qualities will overtake the self
pisces ascendants tend to not really be ‘seen’, especially with the lord in the unseen 8H. but again the eclipse illuminated this & just how corrupted his moral compass is
the other end of the eclipse would be in his 7H, the house of justice, which would have his moon conj the transit sun
lastly i can see aries rising because the eclipse in the twelfth exposes the consequences and results of self-undoing. it’s also the house of prisons.
anyway. just my theories. i stand in solidarity with all abuse victims of the world, & it feels good to see them get justice because a win for one is a win for all. Asè
here are some aid resources for marginalized abuse victims, please consider donating or reblogging!
Black Trans Femme SA/Abuse Victim. this gfm hasn’t moved in 5 months!
Black Childhood SA Victim. this gfm has been up since april & hasn’t gotten a single donation!
Aid for Haiti.
Aid for First Nations/American Indigenous People (Salt Lake).
Aid for Gaza. every day, isntrealis abuse Gazans (in a lot of ways, not just sexually). please consider helping them thru providing healthcare & aid
Aid for Sudan. refugees often experience higher rates of trafficking, rape, & violence. please consider donating!
Aid for DR Congolese Women/Children. consider giving aid to women/childre who are being forced into slavery & the exploitative sex trade.
Aid for Sex Workers. thru whorephobia, misogyny, & other forms of marginalization, the violence towards sex workers is enabled due to the “less dead” theory.
Support for SA/Rape/Trafficking Victims.
Consider donating to abortion funds such as AidAccess, INeedAnA, etc so that people (including rape victims) have autonomy over their reproduction.
avoid red cross. u can always scroll thru gfm & just search up keywords then just go through and donate $5+ to each one until u can’t no more. that way, u directly provide aid.
also, help the people within ur physical community. if u know any black, native, palestinian, trans, disabled etc women, be the community they are so often denied.
power 2 da people :)

What can we expect from 2024 dear!?? 😌
2024 has a lot going on; there are so many astrological transits happening that have a huge impact on all of us.
January 1, 2024: Mercury went direct after being in retrograde for several weeks. This means communication gets better, legal documents can be signed without issues, and anything related to speech is cleared up.
January 20 - September 1, 2024: Pluto enters Aquarius. This is going to be a wild ride. The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was around the late 1700's, and during that time, the world underwent MASSIVE change. Both the American and French Revolutions occurred, coups happened with governments, royalty was dethroned, battles and wars were fought, the first wave of feminism began, etc. There's so much more than this. You should see the list. I'll include it here--start around 1777 and go through 1798. Pluto represents death, rebirth, and transformation, while Aquarius represents humanity and technology. When you pair these two, you're looking at major transformation socially, politically, economically, and technologically. There's a brief retrograde into Capricorn for one last time during our lifetime, and then Pluto will return to Aquarius for another 20 years. It's interesting to note that the rise and fall of empires throughout history is around 250 years. The cycle for Pluto is 245 years. Coincidence? I think not.
February 16, 2024: A stellium in Aquarius. A stellium occurs when three or more planets are in the same house/sign in an astrological chart. This Aquarius stellium will feature Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Pluto. The last time this occurred was in February, 1962, and was commonly referred to as the "Age of Aquarius." This time period brought about major changes in the fields of technology, science, and aerospace. I'm afraid that during this time, though, there will be a strong focus on AI and its advancement. Pay attention to headlines regarding an upgrade in technology.
March 25, 2024: Lunar eclipse in Libra. Major historical events typically coincide with lunar eclipses, and since this one will be in Libra, I foresee society wishing for balance, harmony, peace, and justice. I believe this will be a time that humanity will call for us to take a deeper look at how we can end strife and get along with each other. Be ready for major calls for wars and upheaval to end (even though it's happening now, this will be on a much larger scale with this eclipse).
April 8, 2024: Solar eclipse in Aries. On the flip side of the lunar eclipse, we have the solar eclipse in Aries. This will be a time where we start anew and are ready to charge down a new path. Mars' energy represents war, destruction, violence, revenge, but also strength. This particular eclipse is warning us about war and destruction on a collective level because it'll be conjunct the North Node (the direction we're all going). I believe we're headed into a total collapse and rebirth when we add in the Pluto in Aquarius energy, but it's something that needs to happen for us to evolve as a civilization.
May 25, 2024: Jupiter in Gemini, which is actually in detriment. This means the energy is weaker in this sign for the planet. Expect changes in telecommunications (voice, data, and video) and social media, since Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication.
June 2, 2024: Neptune is anaretic. Anaretic means that a planet has entered the 29th degree, which holds a sense of finality because this planet has transited all 30 degrees (starting at 0). It's ready to move on and cut ties. What does this mean for Neptune? Well, the planet of illusions will lift its veil and a lot of what we've held onto in our beliefs will die out. Some people will still try to hold on (sunk-cost fallacy) because they're stubborn, but the majority of people will release, mourn, and deal with the fallout that's going to be super messy. Imagine the feeling of being betrayed by someone you love. That's what Neptune lifting it's veil is going to feel like for most. Again, collectively, we NEED this energy for healing and spiritual growth.
July 21, 2024: Full Moon in Capricorn. Most of the time, nothing major happens on full moons, but this one is interesting because it falls on an anaretic degree, just like Neptune. Capricorn represents structure, discipline, rigidity, and order (its ruler is Saturn), so we're going to see some upheaval in regards to these issues. The old way of doing things will no longer serve the same purpose. This is the equivalent of saying, "Out with the old, in with the new."
August 5, 2024 – August 28, 2024: Mercury Retrograde in Virgo and Leo. With Mercury rx in Virgo, this might be a time where you lose or misplace documents, feel irritated, have constant miscommunication, or face scrutiny from the general public. Remember to write down important deadlines and keep everything organized so you don't lose anything. With Mercury rx in Leo, I'm fully expecting some celebrity scandals during this time. Otherwise, it'll be a time of thinking about trying something new or wanting to get out and do something fun.
September 17, 2024: Lunar Eclipse in Pisces. This will happen in the 25th degree (an Aries degree), so anyone with heavy Pisces placements will have creative breakthroughs during this time. We'll see a rise in great music, art, poetry and literature, as well as film and visual arts. This time period might feel very dreamy and whimsical on the art scene.
October 2, 2024: Solar Eclipse in Libra. We had the lunar eclipse in Libra in March, so now, the solar eclipse will bring justice and balance. Anyone with Libra placements in early degrees will feel the need to purge what's not working. Even though most Librans are peaceful, this will be a time of upheaval. Expect people to help the oppressed even more (seeking justice) in a world that needs to be more fair and balanced (Libra energy).
November 19, 2024: Pluto goes direct in Aquarius for twenty years, until March 8, 2043. Buckle up! It's going to be a bumpy-but-necessary ride.
November 25, 2024 – December 15, 2024: Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius. We all know what happens during Mercury rx, but what happens when it's in Sagittarius? Sagittarius represents higher education and learning, all things foreign and travel-related, religion, and spirituality. Expect religious or spiritual leaders, as well as educational leaders at universities, to have private documents leaked, misinformation stemming from foreign countries and media, as well as travel issues (delays, being rerouted, lots of crowds, etc.). This will not be a good time to travel.
December 6, 2024 – February 24, 2025: Mars Retrograde in Cancer and Leo. This is going to be...interesting. Mars hates being in Cancer; it's in detriment. Why? Cancer represents empathy and compassion, while Mars represents a more masculine energy that strives towards war, violence, and destruction. Cancer wants to provide a resolution to all of the conflict occurring, while Mars isn't having it. Expect masculine energies, especially men, to be more irritated and aggressive during this time. This duo can bring about discussion regarding balancing masculine and feminine energy, which we all have. Because Cancer is represented by the Moon, or the "mother" in astrology, expect some discussions about fertility and reproduction, birth rates (especially the low birth rates of some countries), marriage (or lack thereof), and any social dynamics with males and females. These discussions will carry over into 2025.
2024 is going to be a year that'll go down in history, that's for sure. One silver lining in all of this is that Venus does NOT retrograde this year, so we might see or hear about fewer breakups, and we might see or hear about more people entering into relationships and staying together.

my very VERY impromptu Trump-Kamala thoughts
I wanted to have a proper look at both of their charts and analyze them with respect to the elections and so I thought I'll share with you guys some notes that I'm making in my head.
So if you're not familliar with Trump's chart, he was (kinda famously among astrologers) born on a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius - his a Gemini Sun is conjunct Uranus and north node (which helps his leadership qualities) and Sagi Moon conjunct the north node (which brings misfortune to women around him�� in one way or another). He also has Mars on his Leo ascendant, which just makes his Gemini self be even more yappy and arrogant know-it-all.
Currently he's in his Saturn profection year and I've talked about it in my previous post but his natal Saturn is in the 12th house of secrets, loss and succlusion. We still don't know what his felony conviction in September will be but what I will say is that Saturn, not only in the 12th but also on exile in Cancer is like double banishment - it's not only themes of being isolated because of the 12th but planets that are in the sign opposite to its domicile often act like rejection of some sorts - and it's either something that rejects you or that you reject yourself, depending on the topic involved.
On the election day, Jupiter will be right on top of his north node and Mars will barely enter his 1st house, giving him more energy and power (mind you that Mars will later retrograde back to his 12th!). Saturn will move away from t-squaring his luminaries but it will still quietly do its malefic job from his 8th house. What's also worth noting is that Uranus will still hover over his MC and square his Mars. So that disruptive energy will linger and Jupiter's influence over his planets might just blow it out of proportion even more.
Interestingly on November 5th we'll have two major transits: Venus opposite Jupiter and Mars opposite Pluto. This is a very strong push and pull and kind of like a battle of the feminine and masculine.
Kamala on the other hand, was also born during a lunation - she has Libra Sun directly opposite Aries Moon (feisty lady she is indeed!). So she's also a full Moon baby. Not an eclipse one but her nodes are just as prominent with the north node right on her Gemini ascendant - she's here to evolve and to do things for the people. And make silly remarks about coconuts Gemini-style.
There we have it guys, the battle of Geminis!
She's currently in her 12th house profection year, where her natal Jupiter is placed. Funnily, her Jupiter is where Uranus currently transits and where Trump has his MC - the Mars-Uranus conjunction surely affected her in a good way. Because she's a Libra, at the time of the elections she'll already be in her 1st house profection with Jupiter transiting her 1st, elevating her as a person. So both of them have support from the benefic.
The beginning of November will also be a notable Saturn transit for her with it opposing her Uranus, Pluto and Venus. As well as Pluto and Mars making a grand square to her luminaries (and to her ascendant ruler, Mercury!) This is a make or break kind of transit but will it give her enough clout and power to push through with the votes or will it bring her defeat?
What's worth noting with her is that soon she'll start having eclipses in the 4th-10th houses, which can bring changes in her living situation and career - but again, it's hard to really guess if that change means stepping down and leaving the White House or upgrading her status.
One thing that is for sure is that starting next year, the US will go into its Uranus return, which historically brought a lot of upheavals and wars every time so no matter who wins, shit will most probably go down.
My guess is that'll happen under potential Trump presidency - somehow he may be that trigger whether willingly or not or some other shocking stuff happens in the meantime and THAT will be the root of the american shitstorm???
Another interesting point is that on the inauguration day Sun will conjoin with Pluto - so we have the theme of forceful power and leadership or some other unpleasant things yet again. Venus will also just move past Saturn, which makes me think of the defeat of the feminine - OR maybe because Venus is exalted in Pisces this is the feminine stepping into authority and a moment of a metaphorical cease-fire and ease.

The Week Ahead: October 7-13, 2024
Lunar Phases
Thursday, October 10, 18:55 UT - First Quarter Moon, 17°58’ Capricorn
The key phrases for the First Quarter lunar phase are “take action,” and “build new structures to support our intentions.” It may feel like we’re preparing for a fight (namely, the Aries Full Moon next week). Be canny and wise, prepared for hard work, and looking out for the longer-term ramifications.
Monday, October 14, 06:30 UT - Gibbous Moon, 6°24’ Pisces
The key phrases for the Gibbous lunar phase are “tweak and adjust plans as necessary,” and “pour more energy and effort into our intentions.” A lot of agitation and urgency; we may feel like hiding instead of fighting. Don’t give up before you even get started.
Void of Course Moon
Wednesday, October 9, 05:54 UT (Sagittarius) - 09:38 UT (Capricorn)
Friday, October 11, 15:53 UT (Capricorn) - 16:31 UT (Aquarius)
Sunday, October 13, 14:11 UT (Aquarius) - 19:55 UT (Pisces)
Retrograde/Direct/Etc.
Pre-retrograde shadow: Mars/Cancer, Jupiter/Gemini (until Wednesday the 9th)
Retrograde: Jupiter/Gemini (starting Wednesday the 9th), Saturn/Pisces, Chiron/Aries, Uranus/Taurus, Neptune/Pisces, Pluto/Capricorn (until Saturday the 12th), Eris/Aries
Post-retrograde shadow: Ceres/Capricorn
Transiting Jupiter stations retrograde on Wednesday, October 9, 07:05 UT, at 21°20’ Gemini. Support from others may seem to dry up; we’re more contemplative and philosophical.
Transiting Pluto stations direct on Saturday, October 12, 00:34 UT, at 29°38’ Capricorn. Time to show the hard work we’ve done on authenticity.
Ingress
Sunday, October 13, 19:23 UT - transiting Mercury enters Scorpio
Almost three weeks of our thoughts taking a darker turn. We’re looking for honesty and depth, but we need to be aware that not everyone is similarly inclined - or equipped.
Et Cetera
No Opportunity Periods this week. But hey, we’re at least out of the shadow of the eclipse!
It really is going to feel like we’re building up to some kind of fight, as the week progresses. Maybe we discover that healing is possible, but not just right now - maybe we keep surrendering before we try to fight - maybe overoptimism leads to a crash - however many people there are in the world, is how many possibilities there are.
It’s crucial to keep to those Capricorn traits as we navigate the days ahead. Prudence, caution, long-term strategies, discipline, hard work, self-reliance.
Most of the problems we face are not some brand-new issue, but rather something we’ve put off addressing - and perhaps we’ll learn a lesson about how “ignore it and it will go away” never works.

Empty Houses
So, before I start, I think we just need to talk about some misconceptions first, one being that an empty house has no meaning or value to your life, the lack of placements in that area being equated with complete silence, like an empty house. The most common practice people will use, when trying to understand empty houses, is by looking at the houses "lord", aka the ruling planet of the empty houses' ruling cusp.
When looking at the house lords, I prefer the modern method (but still use Traditional alongside it):
Aries - Mars
Taurus + Libra - Venus
Gemini + Virgo - Mercury
Cancer - Moon
Leo - Sun
Scorpio - Pluto
Sagittarius – Jupiter
Capricorn – Saturn
Aquarius - Uranus
Pisces – Neptune
When looking at house lords, we look towards where that placement falls in our chart, using the house it falls under, any aspects, and if you apply it, malefic/benefic delineations to understand how that houses themes express themselves. So, say someone has an empty Cancer 3H, the lord of that house would be the Moon, meaning that we look to their Moon placements, any aspects towards it, etc. to understand how they (3H) communicate their emotions.
For me, under that same circumstance (empty Cancer 3H), let's say the house cusp is at 25° 25°- Aries- square degree influence- causes conflict between (25°) their desire for leadership and (square/cancer) their understanding of being able to express themselves as that leader. So, through house lords and other theories, we're able to see that we are able to find meaning in empty houses. Especially when it comes to transits through those houses, we can miss out on a lot in our chart if we treat these transits as *entering a void*. So, now to go through the houses and what they mean on their own! If these don't apply, try applying the degree aspect method and see if you have square or inconjunction degree influences over said house.
EMPTY 1H
This is someone who doesn't have to put thought into who they are, most struggles they face when it comes to their identity having to do with almost being careless with who they represent themselves as. This is someone who doesn’t feel the need to prove themselves. An empty 1H is someone who... isn't by any means immune to insecurity, but they aren't driven by it. Doubting themselves, if they're able, only happens in response to failure, needing a direct cause to make them start thinking about themselves.
EMPTY 2H
This is someone who has an easy time communicating their morals, values, and need for stability to people, sometimes overstepping by laying out an NDA for a new friend. Empty 2H folks tend to be... while they value their possessions, this is someone who isn't broken by something breaking. If they lose something, to them, all they can do is either find it or replace it. There is no intermission with them, they push forward.
EMPTY 3H
This is someone who... may have issues with recognizing social dynamics and cliques because they're so ready to give everyone an equal opportunity to get to know them, usually never considering what can be done with all that information. An empty 3H shows someone who, really, talks to hear themselves talk. While the house may be empty, this is where the silence of it becomes uncomfortable, pushing the native to make up for it on their own.
EMPTY 4H
Empty 4H's tend to have a cohesive home life, possibly getting in trouble for not switching things up enough. These are folks who tend to go home with the intentions of staying home, entering a new mindset depending on what side of the door they're on. The 4H being empty can show someone who, actually, needs an empty house. Not having any placements, these folks aren't used to not being able to escape the stress, so shadow work literally starts at what they consider to be "home".
EMPTY 5H
An empty 5H represents someone who, maybe even though having a touch childhood, still never lost their connection to their innocence and curiosity. This is someone who's never felt scared of or embarrassed by their own need to share and receive love. The 5H being empty shows someone who tends to follow trends more than starting them, and it's because they don't mind being introduced to something new. Their love isn't limited by any insecurity, their heart reaches as far as consent allows them to.
EMPTY 6H
This is someone who has little problem staying organized, or lives life so comfortably that they have their own version of being organized. These will be the 6H cusps to have their own system, holding to it no matter how much sense it makes. When they don't need to do a lot of work to maintain their life, this can sometimes lead to them... not being so great at adhering to other peoples' schedules. They tend to assume everything will take the least amount of work, sometimes falling apart because they didn't check up.
EMPTY 7H
An empty 7H shows someone who, usually, doesn't ever know the relationship is going south until they're literally told it is, assuming everything is alright as long as the two people who need to be together [are] together. They're truly about "us against the world", having a habit of forgetting, romantically and platonically, to check up on the other person and actually ask what they need out of a partner. This 7H needs to focus on more active communication, even if they don't think they "need" it.
EMPTY 8H
This house being empty shows someone who has no hesitation in how they share themselves with people, simply following the desire to be closer to someone and wanting to be the one who changes them for the better. And it isn't necessarily their goal to change the people they love, but intimacy to them is pushing each other forward through the anxiety and fear, not letting each other get stuck in feeling out of place-- fear they forget to say they don't really experience.
EMPTY 9H
This is someone who swings around a sword with three edges, one who needs no validation for their beliefs, one who sees no limitations in exploring other peoples' beliefs, and one who asks so many questions that people perceive it as doubt. Empty 9H'ers are... always looking to understand, over anything else. I think sometimes digging too much can get them in trouble, but it's never enough to put an end to their curiosity, because that ease in their approach to expansion already accounts for growing pains.
EMPTY 10H
The 10H being empty represents someone who doesn't usually feel a strong desire to change who they are to affect perceptions of them, not seeing value in being [known] if it means they have to be known for being someone else. This is someone who... for better or worse, rushes past criticism, setting their minds to a goal and only accepting failure if that specific goal isn't reached. This is representative of a hard worker, but tunnel vision can be their worst enemy in terms of other areas in life.
EMPTY 11H
I think, when it comes to the 11H being empty, this can either represent someone who finds ease in surrounding themselves with people, or finds ease in knowing they don't need that many people in their lives. An empty 11H shows someone who's dreams change constantly, maybe so much that people lose belief in their ability to follow through, but everything is connected. They may bounce around a lot, but every "thoughtless" risk they take has purpose.
EMPTY 12H
Probably being the most intimidating house to face silence in, an empty 12H, to me, either represents someone who is in constant communication with themselves, or is so driven to push past their subconscious that they don't find the closure they need. An empty 12H shows ease in the connection between conscious and subconscious, but not everyone can handle a relationship they have little choice in being a part of. Sometimes it's silencing the endlessness of their anxiety that helps them find the answers they need.

mars, ego death, and “b*mbofication” ❤️🔥
❤️🔥 heidi montag (popular y2k singer, mtv reality tv star, and model): dhanishta chandra and kuja amatyakaraka
💳 before we divulge further into the y2k b*mbo aesthetic, i think it is best to further divulge in the process’s meaning and origin. the aesthetic’s overall ditzy demeanor is symbolic of the benefits one receives from the absence of overthinking and prevention of needing to justify their behaviors and actions to others, especially those opinions who they do not truly value. thus, resulting in a jovial and advantageous attitude towards both themself and their life. the act of removing care, letting go, and radically surrendering to what comes and leaves in your life is an “ego death”. in engaging in abandoning care for frivolous occurrences and surrendering to the unknown, you are slowly encouraging ketu to enter your life, as he is said to have no head (thus, no ego, no face, no sensing, no thinking, or no expressions). a common misconception is that ketu denies, however ketu is not the embodiment of denial but rather indifference. this is why the house ketu resides in in your chart represents the aspects in your life in which you will remain indifferent towards, as you have already experienced the triumphs and tribulations of this house in a previous lifetime. in turning away from caring or indulgence, the item/person you once valued/desired now craves to win your attachment more. this is why individuals popular in this aesthetic seem to live unabashedly and frivolously and continue to receive bouts of wealth. in becoming a blank canvas or black hole (also linked to ketu), you are inviting the universe to bestow various paints (people or items) to adorn yourself with. this is ultimately why kuja (mars: the graha of rage, celibacy, determination, and power) needs to learn from the elderly presence of ketu (neutrality and disassociation) in order to abide in the graha’s naturally youthful energy.
❤️🔥 victoria’s secret angel’s bombshell campaign models: candace swanepoel: chitra surya and dhanishta chandra; doutzen kroes: dhanishta chandra conjunct kuja; josephine skriver: possible aries surya and kuja atmakaraka/amatyakaraka depending on time of birth; and lindsay ellingson: scorpio surya and potential chitra chandra
* note that the majority of vs angels themselves are influenced by kuja. the founder of vs (roy raymond) is an aries surya and dhanishta chandra atmakaraka as well
🪞 in addition to martian natives’ frequent adaptations of ketu’s care free attitudes, their frequently attractive looks are often what draws the adoration of the masses to them. this is because kuja is the son of bhumi (earth) and varaha (the boar). while i have detailed bhumi’s prevalence in depth in previous explorations, i will explore the relationship between the two deities here. bhumi, being the embodiment of the earth, is fertility and divinity. her iconography traces back to the beginning of the zodiac in aries (as she is often depicted with ashwini’s emblems of elephants and horses). her overall earthy nature and varaha’s ether elemental nature combines within the mrigashira, chitra, and dhanishta nakshatras. as each nakshatra lies in the zodiac transitional stage from earth to air (ex. taurus-gemini, virgo-libra, and capricorn-aquarius). this is because varaha was mythologized to have lifted the earth (bhumi) out of the cosmic ocean. the cosmic ocean is the container of amrita, immortality. in greek mythology, said immortality is said to be bestowed in the four horses of aries (the realm of bhumi). when the asura hiranyaksha (attacker, k*dnapper, and obstructor) stole bhumi and hid her in the primordial waters, vishnu appeared as varaha to rescue her. varaha slew the asura, and retrieved the earth from the ocean, lifting it on his tusks, and restored bhumi to her place in the universe. in a similar fashion, so too do the public respond to martian individuals. the majority of worshipping men wish to serve as each kuja woman’s varaha: saving her, idealizing her, lifting her up to the highest places in society. this is why uttara ashadha, the most masculine nakshatra, is symbolized by the similar tusks to that of aries and varaha. these tusks convey masculine power and leadership, in worshipping, adoring, and obsessing over these women, men are more called to feel powerful and energized, as evidenced by large, male-dominated corporations that are geared towards women (such as victoria’s secret).
❤️🔥 khloe and kim kardashian (both are considered american socialites, media personalities, businesswomen, and had heavily publicized s*x lives). kim: scorpio lagna conjunct kuja and chitra surya. khloe: mrigashira chandra, dhanishta lagna, and kuja amatyakaraka
🍹 whereas, it is often women who serve as asura hiranyaksha in the earthly plane, behaving as jealous or aggressive towards martian women (whether they are also kuja natives or not). this accumulation of ill will, whether subconscious or conscious, is often more harmful for the projector and not the attempted receptor. when a person chooses to become a blank canvas and chooses the impressions that may last upon them, they are able to choose to not receive or regurgitate the energy they do not align with. this usage of reflection is why kuja must learn from its proneness to accidents/tragedy and begin to reject said accidents/tragedy via reflection and indifference and not be consumed by them. this jealousy and projection is an extreme prohibitory measure in the female path. this act of feminine division is unknowingly engaging one’s rahu: the graha of difference and duality, as the aggressor/projector is dividing themselves from the martian woman (instead of being inspired and finding amrita within).
❤️🔥 emma roberts (actress known for her portrayal of a multitude of “exaggerated” mean girl characters in “scream queens”, “american horror story”, “wild child”, “we’re the millers”, etc.): dhanishta surya conjunct kuja and scorpio lagna
🛍️ in chinese practices, it is often said that when men frequently interact together in friendships, they tend to reduce their yang, individualistic nature around one another. when men are in the presence of women, they increase their yang, as varaha did with bhumi. whereas, when women frequently interact together, they increase yin in one another and garner greater beauty. this is due to the feminine, yin, watery nature of each other. the beauty and personality of a woman is said to be denoted by their chandra and kuja placements. this is why these grahas are used to analyze one’s behavior, nature, and qualities. thus, water signs are considered to be of 100% water, however the martian nakshatra’s are considered to be of a 1/4 water (with dhanishta being an exception and being 100% water, as it is designed to be the total, healed representation of martian energies). therefore, in positively engaging with martian individuals, who have some or all properties of water, one is heightening their prevalence of yin within the body.
❤️🔥 rachel mcadams (best known for her acting in romantic films and her iconic character in “mean girls”) and lindsay lohan (co-star in “mean girls”, popular y2k actress, and well-known star of the “b*mbo summit”. rachel: mrigashira chandra, scorpio surya, and chitra lagna. lindsay: mrigashira lagna, aries chandra, and kuja amatyakaraka
* note that the film was directed by tina fey (a chitra chandra and kuja amatyakaraka native and co-starred amanda seyfried (a scorpio surya and kuja atmakaraka/amatyakaraka native, depending on the exact time in which she was born) and lacey chalbert (potential dhanishta chandra)
🍒 the act of refusing to allow the jealousy and self-preservation to intrude your mind and put to rest your ego is considered a form of goddess worship. goddesses, such as the lakshmi-aspect bhumi, are infinitesimally beautiful than that of human beings. contrary to the principles of hate or jealousy many harbor against martian natives, people worship them and strive to embody that beauty themselves. in turn, they are gradually merging their image/beauty to align with her. if goddesses were regarded with the same envious treatment of most women on this earthly plane, we would be drastically divided from them. the more beauty one immerses themself in, the more your own physical vessel begins to beautify/purify, as water adds to water. this is why it is often said that you are the company you keep, you are the canvas, but who do you choose to hold the paint brush?
❤️🔥 jennifer aniston (one of the highest paid actresses of all time, frequent of 90s tabloids, and known for her portrayal of “rachel” on “friends”): chitra lagna conjunct kuja atmakaraka, scorpio chandra, and dhanishta surya
🎀 shri vidya states that beauty is equal to truth; that which is beautiful is aligned with harmony, rather than chaos or disorder. the more women allow beauty into our lives, contrary to meeting it with jealousy, the more they embody harmony and beauty itself. i am not saying all women are prone to jealousy, but it is often a feeling we all have experienced once or another. i am simply stating that we should always strive to bring ourselves closer to beauty, instead of attempting to demonize and mitigate it. beauty is exhibited in a multitude of forms other than the physical life form, from photography and painting to crocheting and engineering. i call women who are prone to jealousy to embrace other’s beauty cosmically and become inspired. this may be an act as simple as following along to someone’s makeup routine or looking to incorporate painting techniques from others into their self-portrait. inspiration is an essential part of the feminine existence, it illuminates the areas in life we can beautify and improve in in order to become more aligned with symmetry and harmony. in sanskrit, when you have a vision of a goddess, it is deemed as darshan. darshan occurs when one has pleased the deity through a certain amount of devotion (via prayer, mantra, etc.) and is aided by having a strong fire element (contrary to watery elemental nature of beauty itself, it is of ketu, the ultimate spiritual fire, relating to the power of vision and removing impurities in your perception, in order to see the truth). in engaging in jealousy, you are rejecting the goddess through the women around you, thus eliminating your chances of experiencing the great pleasure of darshan. you are rejecting inspiration, blessings, and overall beautification.
❤️🔥 marilyn monroe (the most popular s*x symbol of the 50s/60s, an emblem of the era’s s*xual revolution, and known for her comedic portrayal of “blonde bombshell” characters): dhanishta chandra and kuja amatyakaraka
🪐 according to dreamgirlarchive on here, popular symbols within this aesthetic include “designer sunglasses, playboy bunny necklaces, big watches, and silver everything”. interestingly enough, silver is said to remedy rahu, as if one is said to be facing the wrath of rahu, they are advised to drink water in a silver glass. in vedic literature, it is additionally advised to consume basil water within said glass. the water acts as a purifier, immersing oneself in kapha energies, primarily that of shukra and chandra, as they are correlated to this healing measure. the additional usage of basil is symbolic of kuja. botanist and physician nicholas culpeper (mrigashira chandra and kuja atmakaraka) noted that basil is an herb of mars and under the influence of the scorpion, referring to it as basilicon. europeans would place basil in the hand of their deceased loved ones to ensure safe passage to the next plain of existence. in consuming/adorning oneself in basil/kuja, they are granted immunity and immortality in the after life, similar to the aforementioned conquest of bhumi and amrita. additionally, the covering of eyes in the darkened, coal-esque color of ketu (sunglasses) mirrors the power of vision and its emphasis in ketu’s mythology and physical aesthetics (as many ketu natives have emphasized eyes). the emphasis of designer fashion (many fashion designers are uttara bhadrapada natives) and watches call to mind the teachings of rahu’s contemporary: shani. who counters the disassociation of ketu and correlates to denial for the promise of a greater future. as it is shani himself who is also considered to be healed by silver. this is why a popular designer in the y2k aesthetic, vivian westwood, is an uttara bhadrapada surya, and designed the popular saturn-shaped necklace titled: the mini “bas”.
❤️🔥 paris hilton (american media personality, socialite, businesswoman, and model): dhanishta surya conjunct kuja and scorpio lagna
🌱 additionally, throughout the images enclosed in this post, you might have noticed the prevalence of kuja amatyakaraka natives. mars amatyakaraka is deemed as making an individual fit for working in the army or line of defense. this placement additionally gives success in speed-oriented tasks. this makes natives especially gifted at dealing with an influx of tenacity and harmful projections from the masses and accumulating a countering army of a following/fan base. they are additionally keen at reflecting (as i spoke about previously). perhaps the most interesting nature of this placement is its gift of time/speed (shani). while their careers and fame may be quick to rise and accumulate accolades, natives of this placement must be weary and learn to pace themselves before shani humbles them. as evidenced by the frequent rises and falls of these natives’ careers and lives. overall, there is much we can learn from the women who popularized this aesthetic, attitude, and ideology: find inspiration in adoration and admiration; learn from the feminine beings around you to discover the goddess within; and, most importantly, understand that there are teachings to learn from all grahas (not just ketu, as evidenced by the involvement of shani, rahu, chandra, and shukra in the healing of kuja, despite them being considered “enemy grahas”).
❤️🔥 jayne mansfield (popular playboy playmate, titled “america’s sex symbol”, nightclub entertainer, actress/singer, and well-known aficionado of publicity stunts): dhanishta chandra and aries surya
— please take the time to list below whether my next post should be on the beauty of ashwini lagna or the beauty of swati lagna? i know i speak about beautification and femininity frequently and i can understand why i’ve received questions and messages asking me, kindly and not so kindly, to branch outside of this topic. however, as for the moment and the entirety of my account so far, this has been a great source of happiness for me. if that bothers you, i encourage to follow the multitude of others who provide vedic astrology-based content. i do appreciate all of the wonderful chances i have had to read everyone’s charts (i’ve received approximately forty orders since i began offering my services) and i appreciate everyone’s patience and kindness as i grow and refine my style. much like my posts, my readings are never truly shortened or condensed. so i apologize for their immense lengthiness and i am always open to further elaborate on what i mentioned (whether you received a reading from me yesterday or several months ago). simply shoot me an email and i will reply. additionally, my google email account appears to not be sending some readings due to their length. if you have not received yours by the receive date, please contact me via email so i can resend your reading. never feel afraid to ask, as you are most certainly entitled to receiving a product you purchased. long ramblings aside, i am so grateful for each and every one of you. i promise more nakshatra explorations are in store, i tend to heavily critique each post i make but there are plenty of drafts i may assure you all. i truly am so baffled at how there are thousands of people who want to read this blog. your prevalence, beauty, and kindness amazes me <3
❤️🔥 christina aguilera (actress and singer known for her immense vocal range and popularization of the y2k aesthetic): dhanishta lagna, kuja atmakaraka, aries chandra, and scorpio surya
**all of these placements were found using astrotheme/.com and/or astro-charts/.com. it is important to note that some chandra (moon) placements may be off by up to 6 degrees and lagnas (risings) as well, due to the fact that many websites do not have 100% accurate birth times for the given celebrities.
xoxo, angel 💋

As we approach Wednesday, September 4th, 2024, the astrological landscape is marked by a profound shift in energy. Mars, the planet of action, assertion, and drive, forms a quincunx with Pluto, the planet of power, transformation, and the underworld. This quincunx aspect sets the stage for a day steeped in psychological tension, where the desire to act or assert oneself may clash with deeper, more subterranean forces of change and control. The quincunx, by its nature, asks us to reconcile energies that don’t easily see eye to eye, often manifesting as a need to adapt, adjust, or find a new perspective.
Later in the day, Mars leaves behind the communicative, quicksilver sign of Gemini and enters the sign of Cancer, where it is traditionally considered to be in its fall. Here, Mars’ fiery, forward-moving energy meets the watery, emotionally-driven terrain of Cancer. This transit marks a two-month period where our actions and desires are no longer purely logical or detached; instead, they are deeply intertwined with our emotional needs, our desire for security, and our instinct to protect what is dear to us.
Aries Rising
For Aries Rising, Mars’ shift into Cancer brings the focus squarely onto your home, family, and inner life. You may find yourself driven to protect and secure your domestic environment, yet the quincunx to Pluto suggests that this period might also unearth power struggles or deep-seated issues within your career or public life. The key here is to find a way to balance your outer ambitions with your inner needs, recognizing that true power often comes from emotional authenticity.
Taurus Rising
For Taurus Rising, Mars’ entry into your 3rd house turns your attention toward communication, siblings, and your immediate environment. Mars in Cancer here may manifest as a need to defend your ideas or protect your emotional boundaries in everyday interactions. However, the quincunx to Pluto indicates that there might be a deeper, underlying tension related to your beliefs, long-term goals, or philosophical outlook. This is a time to carefully consider how your everyday words and actions are aligned with your deeper truths.
Gemini Rising
For Gemini Rising, as Mars leaves your 1st house and enters your 2nd house of resources and values, the focus shifts from personal assertion to securing your material and emotional resources. The quincunx with Pluto in the 8th house suggests that this period might bring up issues related to shared resources, intimacy, or financial entanglements. The challenge lies in navigating these waters without becoming overly protective or reactive, finding ways to assert your values while honoring the complex dynamics of shared power.
Cancer Rising
For Cancer Rising, Mars’ entrance into your 1st house brings a surge of energy and assertiveness, yet it’s colored by the sensitivity and protectiveness of Cancer. You may feel a strong need to assert your identity or protect your personal space, but the quincunx to Pluto in the 7th house of relationships suggests that this period might also bring up power struggles or transformation in your close partnerships. The lesson here is to navigate these dynamics with emotional intelligence, recognizing when to stand your ground and when to allow for change.
Leo Rising
For Leo Rising, as Mars moves into your 12th house, the focus turns inward, bringing up themes of retreat, introspection, and perhaps confronting your own subconscious drives. The quincunx to Pluto in the 6th house suggests that there might be underlying tensions related to work, health, or daily routines that are calling for transformation. This is a time to be gentle with yourself, recognizing the power of rest and reflection in facilitating deeper change.
Virgo Rising
For Virgo Rising, Mars’ move into your 11th house brings a focus on your social circles, friendships, and long-term goals. You may feel a strong desire to protect your place within groups or to assert your ideas within a collective context. However, the quincunx to Pluto in the 5th house of creativity and personal joy suggests that there might be an underlying tension between your social obligations and your personal desires or creative expression. The challenge is to find a balance between these areas, recognizing that true fulfillment often requires both personal and collective engagement.
Libra Rising
For Libra Rising, Mars’ shift into your 10th house of career and public life brings a focus on your ambitions and how you assert yourself in the world. Yet, the quincunx to Pluto in your 4th house of home and family suggests that this period might also bring up power dynamics or deep transformations within your private life. The key is to navigate these energies with grace, finding ways to pursue your ambitions while also honoring the deeper emotional needs that arise from your roots.
Scorpio Rising
For Scorpio Rising, as Mars enters your 9th house, the focus shifts to your beliefs, higher education, and perhaps travel or spiritual pursuits. Mars in Cancer here may drive you to protect or assert your beliefs with a deep emotional intensity, but the quincunx to Pluto in your 3rd house suggests that this period might also bring up tensions in communication or your immediate environment. The challenge is to stay open to new perspectives while remaining true to your core beliefs.
Sagittarius Rising
For Sagittarius Rising, Mars’ move into your 8th house brings a focus on shared resources, intimacy, and the deeper layers of your psyche. Mars in Cancer here might manifest as a protective or defensive stance when it comes to what you share with others, but the quincunx to Pluto in the 2nd house suggests that there might be underlying tensions related to your personal values or financial security. The lesson here is to navigate these complexities with a balance of emotional depth and practical wisdom.
Capricorn Rising
For Capricorn Rising, Mars’ entry into your 7th house of relationships brings a focus on partnerships and how you assert yourself within them. Yet, the quincunx to Pluto in your 1st house suggests that this period might also bring up power dynamics or personal transformations that challenge how you relate to others. The key is to navigate these dynamics with both strength and sensitivity, recognizing that true power often lies in mutual respect and emotional honesty.
Aquarius Rising
For Aquarius Rising, Mars’ move into your 6th house of work, health, and daily routines brings a focus on how you assert yourself in these areas. Mars in Cancer here may drive you to protect your well-being or secure your work environment, but the quincunx to Pluto in your 12th house suggests that there might be hidden forces or subconscious patterns at play that need to be acknowledged. This is a time to be mindful of the deeper emotional currents that influence your daily life.
Pisces Rising
For Pisces Rising, Mars’ entry into your 5th house brings a focus on creativity, romance, and what brings you joy. Mars in Cancer here may manifest as a protective or nurturing approach to these areas, but the quincunx to Pluto in your 11th house suggests that there might be tensions between your personal joys and your social obligations. The challenge is to find a balance between following your heart and fulfilling your role within a larger collective.

October 2024 Important Dates
AKA my notes on The Astrology Podcast's October Forecast, hosted by Chris Brennan and Austin Coppock.
Here's a graphic from honeycomb.co showing the exactness of planetary transits throughout the month as well:
September Recap: We're starting the month in the middle of eclipse season (there was a lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 17th). Chris talks about how the biggest intensity of events usually occurs within 10 days on either side of an eclipse. For example, on the 10th there was the US Presidential debate, which fell in Harris's 10th house/North Node and indeed represented an improvement in her public image. The Vice Presidential debate also takes place today, October 1st, right before the next eclipse. Another Pisces eclipse story is the second assassination attempt on Trump--Chris & Austin connect these to the close square of Uranus on his natal Mars and on top of his natal Midheaven. Using nativities, Chris points out that for the past 20 years the winning presidential candidate has had an eclipse in an angular house, which would point towards Harris winning. However, using zodiacal releasing, Trump is set to enter a new era of prominence in April of next year--whether from presidency or another set is unclear. There are a lot of factors indicating this year's election (and the time between then and the inauguration period!) will be confusing and full of surprises.
Another eclipse story is Israel's attack on Lebanon--the pagers were detonated on the day of the Pisces eclipse. The current war in Palestine began under last year's Libra eclipse, and escalation with Iran occurred along an eclipse as well. They predict October 2nd may very well be the date Israel starts a ground offensive into Lebanon, with implications of a regional war (A/N: this episode was recorded September 29th). There will be another eclipse in Aries before the nodes move off this axis, but the Pisces eclipse's coincidence with the electronics attacks and assassination of Nasrallah may be foreshadowing another 2 years of conflict.
The Pisces eclipse also highlighted Saturn's transit through Pisces: the OceanGate submarine wreck was finally found (crushed during Saturn rx), as well as the sunken wreck of the Erebus, a 19th-century polar exploration vessel. In other water disasters, Hurricane Helene ravaged much of the Appalachian US, the worst storm in a century for many cities and small towns. There were also devastating floods in Europe, Nigeria, and India and typhoons hitting much of East Asia.
October 2nd - Solar eclipse in Libra
Immediately afterwards, the Sun and Moon move towards a square with Mars, boding ill for world events with its significations of war, anger, and aggression. Eclipses on a particular axis often indicate a series of events over about a year and a half (this one began early October), so we know already know which stories are going to wrap up to make way for something new. In our personal lives changes may be for the better--for example, for one viewer this indicates the end of a relationship making room for a new one. Mercury has just separated from a cazimi with the Sun (11♎), and Mars is waiting at 15 Cancer to square all of these planets after they conjoin each other. The changes will take place abruptly, jarringly, and painfully for some. Eclipses shock us, even when they're positive. Mars-Mercury indicates arguments, fighting words, and foul language (goes direct at 17 Libra/Cancer on the 6th). Be careful with your words, as this may represent a longer conflict than you realize, as Mars enters its pre-retrograde shadow period soon after:
Like all retrogrades, Mars brings revisions, repeats, and unexpected delays. With Mars hanging out in the same few degrees of Cancer & Leo for awhile, we'll be spending a lot of time and energy in those areas of our chart. Mars retrograde can work well for those born under one, though--for Mars rx natives sometimes it's when big projects finally come to fruition with them.
During the Mars-Mercury conflict, we will have some support: Venus (14♏) will trine Saturn (14♓) on the 4th-5th, and on the 8th she'll (18♏) trine Mars (18♋) with reception. She comes in to offer a bit of a salve after the chafing of Mars contacts. Also on that day, soon-to-retrograde Jupiter (21♊) will trine Mercury (21♎) with reception, soothing some of the previous hard aspect to Mars. These are the kinds of situations where a terrible accident occurs, but you miraculously escape major injury. This can also represent extremes of good and bad happening at the same time.
October 6th - Mercury square Mars (discussed above)
October 9th - Jupiter stations retrograde He's going to hang out in the same few degrees of Gemini for a long time. See eclipse above for some details on transits leading up to this.
October 11th - Pluto stations direct From the 11th-13th Pluto, while slowing down and stationing, squares Mercury as the inner planet moves from Libra to Scorpio. We've been having Pluto stations in Capricorn since 2008-9, and this is the last he'll be in Capricorn for the rest of any of our lifetimes. Mercury brings the underworld planet's hidden matters to light: think investigative journalism, mystery stories, and exposés on dark scandals. Conversely, we can also see manipulation, control, and suppression of information by forces who prefer to remain in the shadows. Pluto is like a doorway to the underworld: it both plunges things into obscurity and brings up secrets from the depths. This is one last burst of intensity in late Capricorn/cardinal signs for those of us who've been feeling its effects--think of molting, with its vulnerabilities and benefits alike. This also marks the end of the United States' Pluto return--an uncertain evaluation of the next 250 years.
October 13th - Mercury enters Scorpio
October 14th - Sun square Mars While the Sun (21♎) squares Mars (21♋) with Jupiter (21♊) attempting to mediate by trining the Sun, Venus (26♏) opposes Uranus (26♉). With Uranus-Venus we may see some surprises in our relationships. (Chris notes Mercury is at 01Scorpio this day, same as Kamala Harris's natal chart, so the news will probably be about her.)
October 17th - Aries Full Moon, Venus enters Sagittarius
Normally we'd breathe a sigh of relief that eclipse season is over, but the luminaries (🌙:24♈,🌞:24♎) are coming right off a square to Mars (22♋), and are headed right into a square with Pluto (29♑). Thus, by the end of the month, Mars and Pluto begin to oppose each other, an intense configuration that will stay with us for the rest of the year thanks to Mars's retrograde. Don't ignore the little issues that Mars is highlighting in your life; nip things in the bud or keep an eye on them because the problems will only intensify over the next few months. The Mars-Pluto opposition will go exact right around election day in the US, or early November. Thus this full moon sets an ominous tone for the months ahead.
Mars signifies cutting, separation, and conflict, while Pluto takes themes to their utmost extremes, making the small massive and the massive small (think of a mushroom cloud explosion borne from mere atoms colliding). Combined, this indicates annihilation, survival responses, severe overreactions, power struggles, aggression & confrontations, manipulation and control. Other keywords are ruthlessness, forcefulness, and lashing out at perceived enemies, real or imagined. Pluto really enjoys hidden power as well--we may fall for decoys of where the real power lies. Unfortunately this strongly overshadows the US election. Overall, with Pluto involved we can't see clearly, so paranoia and conspiracies abound. It can also indicate horrific acts coming to light, like CBS News publishing the first photographs of torture at Abu Ghraib during the Mars-Pluto opposition of late April 2004, and financial developments like the 2008 bank crashes.
In our personal lives, this may be a period of extreme mental or physical exertion where you accomplish more than you thought possible. Austin cautions us not to react to negative things in a way that makes the situation worse, which is our impulse with Mars in Cancer. Sometimes we have to accept that events beyond our power--control what you can and accept what you can't. Uranus in Taurus will also get folded into this background tension via sextile with Pluto.
October 22nd - Sun enters Scorpio
October 25th - Auspicious electional date
This is a difficult month, but if you have to do something important, the 25th is a good time. A few different times will work; Chris likes around 3PM local time, adjusting until the Ascendant is at about 20 Aquarius. This makes the ruler Saturn in the 2nd house in a day chart, good for financial matters. The Leo Moon applies to a sextile with Jupiter, boding well for earthly events--as long as you can catch it when the moon is applying (at a lower degree; moving towards the aspect) rather than separating (at a higher degree, moving away). (Viewers on the West Coast of the US, for example, may have to move it back a day.) With 20Aquarius rising you get a nice, supportive trine from Jupiter in the 5th house, good for games and leisurely activities. Venus in the 11th house is also helpful, and in Denver they were able to get her near the Midheaven as well, though it's not a dealbreaker if you can't get that to line up. Venus in the 11th, ruled by Jupiter, does well with friends and alliances. Furthermore, though she is applying to a square with Saturn, in this chart it has her in contact with the Ascendant ruler, affirming and supporting you and the actions you take at this time. Not recommended for health or routine matters with a cranky day chart detriment Mars in the 6th house, and beware of Pluto in the 12th house of hidden enemies and self-undoing. Thus, it's not ideal, but we can get some things done.
October 28th - Venus square retrograde Saturn Venus would normally be happy to get out of her detriment Scorpio and into a neutral sign like Sagittarius, but she has to get past this square to Saturn before she can really party. However, this does put her in a whole-sign opposition to Jupiter while being received by him (in his domicile), giving a silver (copper) lining to everything else going on. When one benefic is setting, the other is rising for us.
October 30th - Mercury opposes Uranus (not pictured) At 25 of Scorpio and Taurus respectively, this may be an "October surprise" news scandal (or events in our personal lives).

Energy Update: July 2024
July is a “6” Universal Month [7 (July) + 8 (2024) = 15 = 1 + 5 = 6] in an “8” Universal Year. Six months are connective and somewhat comforting; we tend to reconnect with our Others after the rough conflicts of the “5” month that came before. This is somewhat at odds with the month’s transits, which are pushing us forward and outward. We are in the liminal phase where something has ended, but the new beginning hasn’t happened yet; not really.
The Set Up
We begin the month with the Sun, Mercury, and Venus in Cancer, Mars and Uranus in Taurus, Jupiter in Gemini, retrograde Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, and retrograde Pluto in Aquarius. When you include our North Node and Chiron sitting in Aries, we still have a long line of planetary activation stretching from the last signs of the horoscope (Aquarius and Pisces) through the first signs of the horoscope (Aries through Cancer). After this month, the cluster will break, but for now, we are still stuck in this in-between energy.
By the end of July, the Sun and Venus will have moved on into Leo, Mercury will have moved all the way through Leo and onto Virgo (starting the pre-shadow phase of its next retrograde cycle), and Mars will enter Gemini. Additionally, Neptune will retrograde at 29° Pisces.
The Nitty Gritty
There is a notable lack of major planetary aspecting during July because all of our personal planets are still so closely stacked together. Instead, we see repeat activation between these planets and the lunar nodes in Aries. Cancer is the midway point between our North Node in Aries and our South Node in Libra, and we are at a turning point late in this lunar cycle. We have one last set of eclipse to get through before our nodes switch to Pisces-Virgo with the new year, and it’s starting to show. This is crunch time – whatever has been coming up in our lives around the themes of independence (Aries) versus codependence (Libra) is coming to a head.
We are experiencing these nodal hits thrice over: the first time through a sextile while the planets are in Gemini, a second time in square while they are in Cancer, and a third time in trine while they transit Leo. Things will be easier and then more difficult and easier again. But easy, when it comes to the lunar nodes, is really just a matter of perspective. The lunar nodes can be read as a compass pointing in the sky, away from the South Node’s current position and towards the North Node’s current position. Where the North Node is needs work – it is where we are heading.
Whether that’s a good or bad thing is up for debate. The lunar nodes happen to us—they create the eclipse cycles that enact the greatest moments of change in our lives. Like the influence of the outer planets, eclipse cycles are beyond our comprehension; at best, we can control how we react to them.
In essence, the days of nodal activation throughout the month (of which there are many) are days to watch out for. Let’s take a neutral stance here—eclipses help when we need doors opened but can also slam doors shut that we shouldn’t walk through. If you are on top of things and paying attention, you can use days like this to determine where your life is headed. Eyes wide open is the name of the game all month long.
Lunar Nodal Activation Dates:
7/2 – Sun in Cancer square the lunar nodes, 7/9 – Mercury in Leo trine the North Node in Aries/sextile the South Node in Libra, 7/12 – Jupiter in Gemini sextile the North Node in Aries/trine the South Node in Libra, 7/19 – Venus in Leo trine the North Node in Aries/sextile the South Node in Libra
Each of these dates will be highly liminal (7/2, especially as it is also the date that Neptune stations retrograde) and can be used for divination, pathworking, dreaming, and other magics with which this type of energy is naturally augmented. Stare aware of what happens to you during this time and believe it. Sometimes, difficult truths are revealed through lunar node activation; looking them straight in the eye is better than burying your head in the sand.
Likewise, Chiron – our Wounded Healer – is also in Aries and will be our other major player of the month. To gain a better perspective, we should take a wider step away and discuss how these move around the horoscope wheel. Chiron, like our planetary bodies, moves forward through the horoscope wheel while our North Node, as a mathematical point in the sky, moves backward through the signs. These two have already met and passed each other – Chiron is nearing the end of the Aries, and The North Node is nearing the beginning. This has made Aries (and, by default, the other cardinal signs) the seat of change in the world right now. And since it’s Aries, it is quite the hot seat.
I’ve written a lot about how this whole era we’re in has a major theme of “change before you have to,” which is running afoul of our very human urge to do the exact opposite of our best interests.
There’s a line between standing up for ourselves, allowing each other to BE ourselves, and being a collective that sees each other and cares for the whole that we’re just not getting right. This long-term opposition between the North Node and Chiron in Aries and the South Node in Libra fully represents this in the skies. Whatever this story means to you – whether you’ve been seeing it in the news, experiencing it personally in your life, or ignoring it all together; this chapter of it is ending.
And it fucking hurts. Let’s take a minute to stop and acknowledge the very real pain that most of us (I suspect it’s all of us) are feeling. The aloneness of the quarantine – that was Chiron in Aries. The way that it’s been triggering you every time you realize that your parents don’t actually see you as a separate human being – that’s this whole opposition coming into play. Has your friend group completely fallen apart? South Node in Libra. Has your relationship? Same. We can infer that, in general, what the South Node removes is for the greater good, but with Chiron so involved, it does not feel this way.
If every fiber of your being hurts, you are right on time. And I’m sorry. As somebody who has Chiron on my Ascendant, I can attest to how much it sucks to have to feel all of the pain that Chiron brings to the party.
We’ve got about six more months of this intense Chiron action interconnected with the lunar nodes, and then the nodes will move on. Sure, we all need to sit with this Chiron in Aries energy for another couple of years, but it won’t be involved in our eclipse cycles any longer. That will be a huge relief.
I can also say that, like eclipse/Node energy, Chiron is best faced with your eyes wide open. Chiron is the cosmic reminder that shit is compost and all decaying matter feeds life once more. Fields need to lie fallow. Pain is a signal that can be followed to a source. Sometimes, it’s faulty wiring. Sometimes, you can even replace that wiring. This tends to take a lot of self-compassion, and there doesn’t seem to be much going around – do what you can. Treat yourself like your favorite pet or houseplant.
Chiron days to stay aware of:
7/6 – Venus in Cancer square Chiron in Aries, 7/15 – Sun in Cancer square Chiron in Aries, 7/18 Mercury in Leo trine Chiron, 7/30 – Venus in Leo trine Chiron
All of these dates could be used for healing magic of all kinds.
This month, our big day to look out for is 7/15, when Mars conjuncts Uranus at 26° Taurus. This is an accident waiting to happen, so don’t do anything stupid. Avoid unnecessary travel, don’t play with fireworks, etc. The Sun is square to Chiron all day, too, so it has the potential to really hurt. This isn’t a reason to panic – this is an astrological weather report; whereas some days you might need to bring an umbrella, this is the kind of day where you might want to stay inside. Metaphorically speaking, of course.
Our day to look forward to for the month is our full moon on 7/21, which is a true astrological blue moon – meaning it’s the second moon in a row in the sign of Capricorn. This is highly auspicious and doubly so because we also have two new moons in Capricorn this year (one in January and another in December!). Sitting at 29° Capricorn, it will call in a lot of the energy of Pluto, who is sitting at 00° Aquarius, inching its way back toward Capricorn one last time.
Again, note the intense cardinal sign activation that is happening all month. This full moon will also tie in Chiron in Aries through a wider square. Heads up to anybody with their lights or personal planets in late Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn – now can be your time if you can get through the pain enough to see the change. Y’all are stubborn folks, so I have faith in your capabilities.
This moon, along with the full moon on 6/21 at 01° Capricorn, are great days to do any long-form intentional work towards money, finances, career, or any task that involves structure. Work with the moon’s cycles here: where do you want to be in six months when the moon is new in Capricorn once more? But stay aware that Saturn will crash your party whether you invite them or not, so you might as well extend an official invitation.
The numerology of this full moon is 5/2. [0 (Capricorn Moon) + 4 (Cancer Sun) = 14 = 1+4 = 5. 5 (Capricorn full moon) + 6 (July 2024) = 11 = 1+1 =2.] There’s a chance to break a cycle (5) that can become the start of something new (2).
Our new moon on 7/5 is at 14° Cancer and should be more low-key. The moon is in its home in the sign of the crab, making this day especially lunar and watery. If ever there was a day to wash wash wash it all away – either with a mop or the ocean waves, it is a Cancer Moon. The numerology of the day is 8/5 [4 (Cancer Moon) + 4 (Cancer Sun) = 8. 8 (Cancer New moon) + 6 (July 2024) = 14 = 1+4 = 5.] The innate 8 energy echoes that of the moving tides; it ebbs and flows. We see the echo of the 5 energy of change and movement throughout this month.
Otherwise, the seasons shift as we move deeper into summer energy all month. There’s an echo of egoic Leo energy in the air all month long as all three of our more moveable personal planets move through the sign of the lion. It’s summer when, most of all, we really start to feel ourselves. Remember, this isn’t a bad thing. Do a bit of magic to remind yourself how much of a badass you are. As a little treat.
Neptune will retrograde, but we won’t really notice as it’s so slow-moving anyway. We need to keep an eye on Mercury, though, as it is whipping through the summer signs before its mid-summer retrograde. The crossover from Fixed to Mutable signs is highlighted here as Mercury will retrograde from 04° Virgo to 21° Leo starting in early August. Be aware. I will be writing more about this soon.
Months that begin with the sign of the crab on the horizon are usually emotional and moody, and this is no exception. Remember that it’s okay to tread water when things get too deep, and you can let the rip current take you – eventually, it will let you go, and you can swim to shore. It’s when you fight it that things can go really wrong, really quickly.
Practice your very best self-care. Treat yourself with the same kindness that you would your most loved Other. If you’ve got anything left after that, extend it to as many of your Others as you can.
