Sunday, June 11th ~ There's a LOT going on today. Pluto retreats into Capricorn for personal and in depth reevaluation. This may be subtle or hardly felt at all. But the focus may go from roles in groups to inner wisdom about what you need especially in terms of structure. Mercury aligns with Pluto and then moves to Gemini for travels, studies and interpersonal connections for the next few weeks. The Pisces Moon meets Neptune and aligns with Pluto this morning, relating quite a bit to helping and being compassionate as well as creative and open hearted. Also be a friend to yourself. Aries Moon follows and coaxes us out of introversion as the Moon aligns with both Mercury and Venus. This may bring on social and other activities and interactions. It's quite the full and mixed day. Do a little of anything and everything. Wear Orange.

Monday ~ Aries Moon in harmony with Mars in Leo and Gemini Sun. This is very outgoing and some will be pushed out of their social comfort zone. Act on what you feel is true and inspiring. Wear Red.

Tuesday ~ Aries Moon squares Pluto 2:27 pm ET. We may question ourselves or we may need to slow down and tune in. Find that balance of healthy confidence without overstimulating the ego. Void Moon starts then and the Moon shifts to Taurus 4 minutes later. Feelings may shift too and be fleeting. Notice how quickly things can change. Grounding is important. Feel your feet and stabilize. Today's color is Brown.

Wednesday ~ Taurus Moon meets Jupiter, squares Venus and Mars in Leo, and aligns with Saturn. The big question or pull seems to be about growth and how to grow while maintaining healthy, thriving relationships. There's relationship tension today, yet it can lead to amazing creative collaborations and solutions. Be willing to listen. Try not to let ego get in the way. Focus on personal and professional growth. We might indulge extra. Take care of the plants and the earth. Today's color is Green.

Thursday ~ Taurus Moon connects with Uranus, the catalyst for unexpected change of either mind or events. This happens monthly. Neptune and Pluto are in harmony with the Moon today. All of this contributes to a feeling or awareness of what's been happening outside and beyond our usual senses. What's been hidden, dormant, kept secret, or bubbling up to now rise and surface...and what is coming alive from within yourself? Mercury squares Saturn and we may struggle or need to give extra energy with words, statements, writing, contracts, and commitments. Void Moon 9:36 pm to 9:46 pm ET. Today's color is Black.

Friday ~ Gemini Moon squares Saturn and meets Mercury, continuing yesterday's business. Communication and how we interact is of utmost importance and affects outcomes. The Moon aligns with Venus making it an interesting date night or good time for heartfelt talks or other interactions. Performances may be inspired! The Moon squares Saturn and we may be wavering on what to agree to, what the terms are and how much to give of ourselves as the Moon wanes and fresh starts will be favored on Sunday/Monday. Wear Blue.

Saturday ~ The New Moon is tomorrow at 12:37 am ET, and tonight if you're on Pacific time. Along with New Moon in Gemini, we have Venus and Mercury in conjunction which is beautiful for love, heart centered decisions and connections, for writers and vocalists and their work, and for maybe just feeling good about life. I wish you that feeling! Saturn retrograde begins at 1:27 pm ET in Pisces. This looks like an energetic day filled with reasons to socialize, gather, and make things more beautiful and appealing. Magnetic personalities will shine and this might be seen on stage or in your own backyard with friends. It's a very Gemini/Leo day. Wear Gold.

Sunday, June 18th ~ New Moon in Gemini refreshes communication and travel plans. It also initiates a 'busy season' with lots of activity and movement. New Moon 12:37 am ET. Void Moon 2:24 am to 6:58 am ET when the Moon shifts to Cancer. This is a favorable day for initiating important communication and for scheduling future plans. The Moon is in harmony with Jupiter and Saturn, for opening the mind and for steady progress. Sun square to Neptune later at night brings up matters of deception vs truth. Some will avoid realities. Try to see things as they are, yet with a creative outlook. Today's color is White.

Monday ~Jupiter sextile to Saturn continues an effect from yesterday when these two were aligned with the Moon. What you've been feeling and contemplating may lead to decisions today. This can relate to education, job opportunities, and expanding your role in any way. It's a commitment and there's emotional tone to this. Feel into what's right for you. Cancer Moon. Wear Light Blue.

Tuesday ~ Cancer to Leo Moon. The Moon aligns with Uranus for aha moments and sudden understanding or clarity, and may relate most to family and home. It's an introspective and creative day as Neptune and Pluto engage with the Moon. Try not to get caught up in self pity or judgment. Tap into your intuitive side. Void Moon 5:43 pm to 6:04 pm, nice and short! Leo Moon tonight for getting out to play on a weeknight. Wear Orange.

Wednesday ~ Leo Moon squares Jupiter and eventually meets Venus. Big things in the works may include personal relationships, love interests and on the other hand, how to grow in business or professional life. Many things are in favor on this day. Mercury and Mars align for getting plans into action and agreements in order. Today is more outgoing and collaborations are likely. It looks like an awesome date night. The Sun moves to Cancer and this is the Summer Solstice, at 10:58 am ET. 

Happy Summer! Today's color is Pink.

Thursday ~ Leo Moon meets Mars and is in harmony with Mercury in Gemini. This creates energy for plans, actions, agreements, contracts, performers, writers and surrounding education plans and more! Tap into the source of inspiration, motivation and drive. Surround yourself with people who help make things happen. There's one interesting square which may mean unforeseen events or shifts, but maybe that's just exactly what's needed and meant to be (even if it throws things off track momentarily). Void Moon 1:01 pm ET into Friday. Today's color is Yellow. 

Friday ~ At 6:35 am ET the Moon shifts and Virgo Moon is in harmony with the Sun in Cancer. This feel very earth and water, a day to be outside, at the shore, in nature. Alternatively, it could be a good day to work on things at home, move to a new space or prepare for that, and do domestic type things that make you feel good or create a sense of accomplishment. Wear Navy Blue.

Saturday ~ Virgo Moon square Uranus in Taurus. Roll with the changes and be versatile as plans and perspectives are shifting and in flux. Try to be flexible.  Wear Brown.

Sunday, April 23rd ~ Mercury has been retrograde since Friday and we are between the Solar and Lunar Eclipses. Ifyou don't have to make a major decision or take on too much, it may be just as well. However, life doesn't stop and you veery well might have to do such things. Take everything slow and really listen in to your inner voice and gut. Gut check everything. Gemini Moon meets Venus for socializing, meeting new friends, sharing creative ideas and collaborating. Writing will be inspired. Tap into your imagination. Tonight at 11:19 pm ET, Mercury aligns with Mars (Taurus/Cancer) and family relationships and communication are activated. Family news comes. Information about home, housing, and relatives is likely and some of this is retroactive type news. Today's color is Pink.

Monday ~ Gemini Moon in harmony with Jupiter, the planet active near April 20th Solar Eclipse. Take a broad perspective and outlook. Rule nothing out and keep options wide open. The Moon squares Neptune today which can be unsettling or unreliable. Void Moon 8:15 am to 2:58 pm ET. Especially during those hours, lay low, take it easy, try not to overreact and move too quickly. It's a good time for meditation, brainstorming, and physical exercise (but don't over exert). Cancer Moon for the rest of the day. Home and family priorities and anything that creates more comfort and security highlighted through today, Tuesday and Wednesday. Today's color is Light Blue.

Tuesday ~ Harmony and sense of ease are in the air as the Moon and Sun align just after midnight. This sets up hours of solar and lunar aspects, one after another, most indicating synchronicity and agreement. The Sun and Moon both form sextiles to Saturn in Pisces. Keeping clear and healthy boundaries is someething to keep in mind. Tune into both your wisdom and your emotions and be clear about the limits. Mercury retrograde in Taurus also aspects the Moon in Cancer. Deal with family and other business from the past, in constructive ways. Temporary plans and trial periods are favored while Mercury is retrograde. see how and if these plans can work and agree on a time to regroup and review, after May 14th. Tonight at 11:08  pm ET, the Moon and Mars meet. This continues a Mars in Cancer theme we've been experiencing this week. It can be activating, perhaps motivating. Keep emotions in mind and avoid unnecessary confrontations, or confront gently. Wear Blue.

Wednesday ~ Cancer Moon continues to be actively engaged, with three planetary alignments today. It's a mix, with a square to Jupiter in Aries which feels like a push/pull of what to prioritize and how to grow and change without losing your connection to home, roots, and sense of stability. Neptune and Uranus are in harmony with Cancer Moon, from Pisces and Taurus. Possibilities come up as events and situations change. Can you visualize what you want in the current moment and scenario? Let a dream take shape in it's own way. Void Moon 7:41 pm ET, until 2:30 am ET Thursday.  Today's color is Purple.

Thursday ~ Leo Moon now until Saturday afternoon. The Moon opposes Pluto in Aquarius (monthly now). Pluto is known to reveal and bring up the shadow side of ourselves and of situations. Notice how some light shines on something that was hidden, either intentionally or just by default. For some, this can feel like an emotional rebirth and regeneration. It's a monthly cycle through early June. Pluto will retrograde into Capricorn then and return to Aquarius in 2024. Pluto in Aquarius will bring enhanced awareness to the shadow side of the internet and technology that connects us, for one thing. Changes will come in that area, but slowly, over 21 years! Leo Moon is square to the Sun in Taurus which brings up challenges and points out where we are stubborn and resist change. Yet when we work through that, the effects can be dynamic and powerful. Yellow is today's color. 

Friday ~ Leo Moon squares both Mercury retrograde and Uranus, both in Taurus. The effect is topsy turvy at best. It might be worth hanging onto your ideal rather than compromising if something just doesn't feel right. Unexpected change and information is likely. When and if everything is 'up in the air', give things time to settle and sort out before making a decision that's hard to reverse. What's favored today is creativity, changing perspective, staying open minded, and taking things slow. Als, as evening comes, it's a social night for events and performances and other gatherings as the moon aligns with Venus in Gemini. Get together with friends. Today's color is Orange.

Saturday ~ Leo Moon trine Jupiter in Aries is fiery, bright, and could manifesst as optimism and inspiration. Follow your dreams with an open heart and sense of adventure. Tune into your heart's messages. Void Moon 6:53 am to 2:59 pm ET, and the Moon moves to Virgo. Mars and Uranus align at 4:05 pm ET and it's best to be in familiar places and situations and not take risks or unnecessary changes tonight. Take safety precautions seriously. Today's color is Black.
