The astrology of the next two weeks, as we move toward the New Moon in Aries on April 18th, is intense. And more importantly, it’s asking something of you.

Aries season is the force that pushes through to bring forth new life. That’s what we’re moving through right now. We’re in the process of birthing something.

Collectively, and in our individual lives, something is moving through us that marks the end of life as we’ve known it, and the beginning of a new way of establishing ourselves. Where Aries lives in your chart will show you where this is unfolding.

But this isn’t something you snap your fingers and complete overnight. There is a process that could take years to really see the results (Saturn and Neptune take years to transit through a sign). But as the planets accumulate in the sign of Aries, it tells us to pay attention to the events and situations that are guiding you toward an initiation, because they are not random.

My advice:

Aries season is where we are meant to get clear on who we are becoming. It asks us to stand up for ourselves, to fight for what we love. With Neptune and Saturn in Aries for the first time in our lifetime, a new dream and a new set of responsibilities are being seeded in the Aries area of our chart.

Last week, Venus in Aries crossed over Chiron, the wounded healer, reminding us to check in with our relationship to ourselves. Our dreams, our pain, what drives us, what we like and don’t like about where we are right now, all of it matters. It’s important to notice this, because Venus has now entered Taurus and, since Venus rules Libra, she becomes the protagonist of this Full Moon.

While Venus in Aries asked for self-reflection and reclaiming confidence, Venus in Taurus asks for alignment with our values and our worth. The Moon in Libra reflects this back to us through our relationships.

• What is truly important to you now, as the Aries area of your life is asking for your attention.

• Venus shows you your resources. What’s the budget? How much is needed? What are your talents, and how can you put them to work for you?

• The Moon shows you who is coming along, and what needs to be adjusted in your relationship agreements so everyone is on the same page.

The key to this Full Moon is communication. Mercury, the planet of communication, is still in Pisces after its retrograde, forming a trine to Jupiter in Cancer… and Jupiter also squares the Full Moon. The gift here is emotional understanding. There is more compassion available, more willingness to meet each other with softness.

The challenge is that this energy can be dreamy, even indulgent. There’s a tendency to focus on best-case scenarios without fully considering what happens if things don’t go as planned. This is not the time to make decisions based on emotional impulses. It is the time to have the conversations about what needs to happen next, and to make decisions from a place of thoughtful consideration.

As Venus in Taurus begins to square Pluto in Aquarius, an inner tension builds…

One part of us wants grounding, reliability, simplicity, and to feel sure of who we are and what we have to offer. Another part wants space, detachment, and change, and may bring up the fear of not being fully understood or accepted. Power dynamics may surface over the next week, asking us to notice where we are resisting transformation.

Where are you holding on too tightly? Where are you wanting change, but also afraid to let go? Where are you doubting yourself, your talent, your value?

This is the reminder: something has to give.

You must release to make space for what is trying to come in, and acknowledge what you have to offer and how it can impact your community. This is about trusting yourself, and the universe, enough to know that no matter what, you’ll be okay.

How this shows up for you through the Aries, Libra, Taurus, and Aquarius areas of your chart:

Are you expressing your heart — or performing for approval?

We are deep in Aquarius season, and this year the Aquarian emphasis is strong, with five planets there. When Aquarius energy concentrates like this, something in us wants updating. We feel the urge to liberate ourselves from what no longer feels true. We start seeing the future more clearly — and once we see it, we can’t unsee it.

Aquarius is the part of the solar cycle where vision awakens.

We begin asking… Where are we going? Who are we becoming? Who is walking with us into what’s next?

Because Aquarius is an air sign, this often shows up in relationships and communities. We notice who we can truly be ourselves with. Who we can think out loud with. Who gives us space to be different.

The Identity Upgrade Happening Now

Both the Sun and Mars have recently crossed Pluto in Aquarius. This is not subtle energy. Pluto transforms. Mars activates. Together, they push evolution into action.

You may feel this as a shift in how you assert yourself, choose your direction, or show your individuality — especially in the Aquarius area of your chart (continue reading for your horoscope). Mars only visits a sign once every two years, so the version of you who operated then is not the one making decisions now.

Some fears may surface, too — around being misunderstood, judged, or rejected for your uniqueness. Pluto in Aquarius asks you to stop hiding your difference and start inhabiting it.

Leo Brings You Back to the Heart

While Aquarius pulls us toward the future and the collective, the Leo Full Moon brings us back into the heart.

Leo reminds us how to enjoy being alive. It reconnects us with play, creativity, passion, and joy. It brings us back to the inner child — the part of you that loved things simply because you loved them.

This lunation illuminates:

• What makes you come alive

• What you want to share

• What you love enough to be seen for

Old memories may surface. Times when you were told you were too much, too loud, too expressive. Moments when you edited yourself to be accepted, or when your joy was not received well.

Full Moons bring realization and release. This one shows where you learned to dim your heart.

It’s especially important now, as this Full Moon gives insight into the eclipse series along the Leo–Aquarius axis.

• February 17, 2026 — Eclipse at 28º Aquarius

• August 12, 2026 — Eclipse at 20º Leo

  These eclipses will help us recover our natural talents, heal from old love stories and heartbreaks, release the need for romance to be soap-opera dramatic (hello to all my latinos) LOL. And step into a new timeline of how you share your talent, your role in your community, more mature friendships and romantic relationships.

So yes, my friends — this full moon is telling us what we’ll be working with for the next 2 years with these Aquarius - Leo eclipses.

Validation vs Devotion

The Leo Moon also shows where we may still be creating for approval instead of love.

Recognition is healthy. Appreciation matters. But motive matters more.

Are you expressing yourself because you love it?
Or because you hope it will make you feel worthy?

This Full Moon helps recalibrate. Devotion replaces performance. Love replaces proof. Expression replaces impression management.

Creative and Relational Openings

The Moon is connecting through a quincunx to the North Node in Pisces, opening a strong artistic and spiritual channel. There’s an adjustment happening in how we use our creative expression, intuitive work, and sharing our gifts — without over-structuring them or trying to force perfection.

At the same time, relationship themes are active. We may feel a pull between emotional closeness and personal freedom, between bonding and individuality. The work isn’t choosing one over the other — it’s learning conscious connection that allows both to coexist.

Connect with others as a portal to your heart — to understanding what you love and how to express it. There’s no need for possession, or expecting others to be or think like you, because that’s not what love is about. And there’s no need to abandon your values or ideals in order to belong.

You see, there’s a reason we celebrate Valentine’s Day in the month of Aquarius, with Leo opposing it — this is the axis of love. They say the highest form of love is friendship. To be fully yourself and be loved for who you are… wow. What a gift. Wouldn’t that be the ultimate blessing for humanity?

To have this kind of higher thinking and detachment (Aquarius) while still being fully connected to the heart (Leo), where we don’t fight each other but instead become the embodiment of what we love — that’s what I call activism.

Balancing Leo and Aquarius — Bringing in the Body and the Depth

Here’s a technique I use when looking at charts. When one energy dominates, we look to its opposite and its sister signs for integration support.

When Saturn and Neptune move into Aries for good this year, we enter a new era of selfhood.

Neptune goes first on January 26 (today!), followed by Saturn on February 14. On February 20, we experience the exact union of these two planets holding hands in Aries. This moment marks the beginning of a new timeline. A true initiation. Something fresh is emerging as these two archetypes ask us:

What if your dreams needed structure?
What if your structures needed soul?

Saturn is an earthy force, responsible for time, commitment, and accountability. It makes sure we do not waste our time here and that we follow through on what we say we will do. Neptune, by contrast, is a watery force. It awakens intuition, dissolves boundaries, and connects us to the invisible realms, the formless world of spirit, imagination, and longing. These planets carry very different energies, and neither is naturally comfortable in the fiery, fast-moving sign of Aries.

And yet, both are necessary.

It takes a certain amount of delusion and fanaticism to innovate. To have a dream and bring it to life. To create anything new. To become an entrepreneur, an artist, a leader, or a pioneer, you must have blind faith. You must believe in something that does not yet exist and believe deeply in yourself. This is Neptune’s gift: connection to what is not real yet, but has been seen in dreams, visions, or deep yearning. Neptune gives hope, love, and the emotional fuel to begin.

But it also takes limitation. Discipline. Responsibility. Saturn reminds us that vision alone is not enough. You must take agency, devote yourself to the work, and keep going even when progress feels slow or failure seems near. Saturn turns inspiration into purpose and persistence.

We have a moment of clarity. An opportunity to see, in full view, where we are out of balance between our emotional needs and responsibilites. That’s what a Full Moon does. It brings things to a climax. It shows us what needs to be regulated, released, or reoriented.

This is when we get to notice where we’ve leaned too far in one direction. Where we’ve been overly focused on achievement, productivity, and outcomes, or where we’ve retreated inward and not tended to our goals. This lunation helps us recalibrate.

What Really Matters Now

Cancer reminds us of home, family, belonging, and emotional safety. Capricorn asks us to take responsibility, commit, and build something meaningful. Together, they ask an essential question:

Why do you want what you want?

When your goals are connected to what makes you feel safe, nourished, and alive, they become sustainable.

So whatever you’re setting out for in 2026, start it from LOVE! From the place within you that is connected to the Mother Archetype. The nurturer. The giver of life. The one that creates through giving and receiving, the sacred union of femenine and masculine.

The Reminder We All Need

The lower expression of this Full Moon looks like overcommitting, rushing, and pushing past your limits in the name of progress. The medicine is slowing down and remembering that it’s okay if things take time, as long as the journey is aligned.

Mars in Cancer adds emotional courage and determination. It doesn’t rush, but it doesn’t give up either. Meanwhile, Venus, the Sun, and Mars in Capricorn keep us focused on long-term goals, while the Moon and Jupiter in Cancer remind us why those goals matter in the first place.

A Shift in Love, Worth, and Value

This Full Moon takes place with the Venus Star Point, marking a meaningful ending and renewal in how we relate to love, money, and self-worth. This could look like closing a chapter where worth had to be proven through effort, sacrifice, or overwork.

What emerges instead is a deeper knowing of your value and a new way of building relationships and goals that honor your natural rhythms.

More on the Venus Star Point here.

On January 6, 2026, a Venus Star Point takes place at 16º Capricorn, initiating a cycle designed to last. This one feels impactful, purposeful, and clarifying.

Venus Star Points often feel like an awakening of desire. That inner impulse in all of us to feel good, to enjoy life, to experience beauty, connection, and worth.

They mark both:

• the closing of an old Venus story

• and the seeding of a new one

This one, especially, asks a simple but powerful question:
What am I actually building here?

Because it’s in Capricorn, you may notice:

• a realization about what no longer deserves your energy

• sobering honesty around relationships or money

• a desire to simplify, commit, or formalize something that truly matters

There’s a growing clarity around what has endurance and what doesn’t.

Mars Joins the Conversation

IIt is rare to have the planet of action in the mix with a Venus Star Point, making this one extra potent, especially since Mars is exalted and oh-so strong in Capricorn!

Venus names the desire. Mars goes after it. The Sun says: This is who I’m becoming.

This is a confirmation that in 2026 we’re not on stand-by. We’re making moves!

Looking like:

• clean decisiveness

• little tolerance for ambiguity

• attraction to people and paths that move with purpose

Mars in Capricorn is the ultimate builder. The one you can rely on to get the job done. So yes, ladies and gentlemen — this year is very promising.

Continue reading for how to work with this energy and the area of life where you’ll have this boost in motivation.

In relationships, this tends to dissolve passive dynamics and one-sided effort. In work and creativity, it’s a powerful moment for formalizing projects, stepping into authority, and committing to something meant to last.

I love Sagittarius New Moons because they arrive as a yearly invitation to reconnect with how we want to grow and explore. This is the time of year to consider what you’re willing to do that feels a little “out there,” but you know it’s what’s needed. Whether it’s travel, learning something new, or stepping into an unfamiliar adventure, Sagittarius asks us to follow the call toward expansion.

Sagittarius offers inspiration and optimism, reminding us that possibilities are endless. If there’s something in your heart you want to experience, it’s there for a reason. It’s meant for you. The work, however, comes from examining the beliefs that may be blocking the path forward. That’s where the deeper intention-setting of this New Moon lives.

With Mercury, Venus, the Moon, and the Sun all in Sagittarius, what we’re ready for feels loud and clear. The desire is obvious. The ruler of this New Moon, Jupiter, is in Cancer, suggesting that whatever we set in motion now is meant to bring us closer to home. This is about emotional stability, nourishment, and a deeper sense of inner safety. Chiron, involved with this lunation, tells us this is also about being our own healer, understanding what we need to provide ourselves to be well.

Rerouting

What this Sagittarius New Moon is telling us is that it isn’t only about excitement or going places. With Saturn and Neptune at 28 degrees Pisces, squaring this lunation in their final moments in the sign, there’s a re-route unfolding. We might think we’re heading toward one destination because we want a particular experience, but what we gain from the journey ends up being something deeper than we expected. Emotional maturity. The ability to care for ourselves and those we love in ways that are genuinely satisfying and nourishing for the soul.

Perhaps that’s what fulfillment really is. Loving not only what we do, but who we do it for, and who we do it with.

This has been Jupiter’s ongoing lesson in Cancer since May, and it will continue to show us how vital emotional closeness is, both with ourselves and with the people who matter most.

Setting Intentions

What this New Moon is doing for us is preparing us for what’s to come. In the first half of next year, there’s so much fire energy leading us to take action, while Jupiter remains in the water sign of Cancer until July to remind us that emotional well-being is a priority.

To work with this energy consciously, it helps to locate 28 degrees Sagittarius and 28 degrees Pisces in your chart. Where Sagittarius falls shows the area of life calling for growth, exploration, and courage. Where Pisces falls shows the area where you’re being asked to allow uncertainty, practice devotion, and stay open. Together, these points form a powerful map for balancing inspired action with receptive trust.

It’s a commitment, yes, but one that’s shaped by a higher purpose. You don’t need to know exactly how it will unfold yet. Trust that whatever emerges is precisely what you need to evolve.

Below is the house-by-house guide to see exactly where this energy is calling you to act, surrender, and grow.

This lunation delivers insight, news, conversations, or information that rises right in front of our eyes and makes something click internally. A puzzle piece that was floating for a while suddenly finds its place.

Because Gemini is the sign of the Messenger, this full moon opens an exchange of messages that feel small on the surface but profound underneath. Just as we are receiving messages, we are also the ones delivering them to those around us. One quick, casual sentence from a friend, a text, a sign, a dream — something simple can catalyze a deep AHA moment that shifts our inner world.

Mercury, the Ruler of This Moon, Is in Scorpio: Truth With Depth

Mercury rules Gemini, so wherever Mercury is, it sets the tone for its full moon. And right now Mercury is in Scorpio, freshly moving forward after retrograding from Sagittarius back into Scorpio. This means the realizations and messages of this full moon are not surface-level. They’re psychological. They’re transformative. They’re healing!

Something you didn’t want to face is ready to be seen. Something you buried is ready to be spoken.

Mercury is also conjunct Lilith, activating the part of us that refuses to stay silent about what has been suppressed. Saying:

Stop intellectualizing your feelings and speak from the gut.

This lunation wants honesty. Raw, simple, liberating truth.

Sagittarius Season: Belief, Faith, and Lived Wisdom

The sun in Sagittarius reminds us to check in with our beliefs. Why do we believe what we believe? Are these beliefs helping us grow, or is it time to shift them?

This part requires a kind of brutal honesty with ourselves. It asks for a pause, a moment to reorganize our thoughts and give the mind a new framework to operate from. Mercury retrograde began this process a few weeks ago. Now, with this full moon, we crystallize it. We start setting it in motion by taking actions that reflect this new truth.

Sagittarius season is when we evaluate our faith, our spiritual framework, and the teachings that have shaped our worldview. Sagittarius isn’t just the scholar. It’s the lived experience of those teachings. It’s where philosophy must become practice.

Under this full moon, many of us find ourselves testing our theories, seeing whether our wisdom holds up in real time, and re-aligning with the truths we actually want to live.

The Lunar Nodes in Virgo and Pisces Activate a Mutable Grand Cross

This Full Moon forms a mutable grand cross with the lunar nodes in Pisces and Virgo. A grand cross always signals a crossroads — a moment when life asks for a decision, a shift in perspective that takes us into a new direction.

With the South Node in Virgo, we confront the old patterns that no longer fit:

• overthinking

• self-criticism

• perfectionism

• rigid routines

• being hard on ourselves

• needing to be right

• trying to fix everything before feeling safe

And with the North Node in Pisces, we’re invited into the higher path of:

• compassion

• forgiveness

• faith

• surrender

• trusting intuition

• healing without needing the whole plan

• softer self-talk

This mutable grand cross says:
You cannot move forward carrying judgment, tightness, and old mental loops. Something must soften.

We’re moving a ton of energy right now, and so it requires us to be flexible and adaptable. It asks us to learn, heal, serve, and teach all at once. And this requires presence with full awareness.

The Work of This Full Moon

This lunation may bring the feeling that a lot is happening at the same time. And it is. That’s the nature of mutable energy. The task is to practice balance:

• say yes to learning and connecting (Gemini)

• embrace exploration and lived experience (Sagittarius)

• organize yourself where needed (Virgo)

• know when to rest and replenish (Pisces)

None of these are meant to dominate. They’re meant to work together.

The Prayer

May this Full Moon in Gemini open the path before me.
May the message meant for me arrive with clarity.
May the truth that rises become undeniable,
gently shifting the beliefs that no longer serve my growth.
May every old pattern that’s ready to dissolve release its grip,
and may what I’ve been circling in my mind finally crystallize into understanding.

May realization land softly.
May truth be spoken with courage.
May my mindset transform in alignment with my highest knowing.

As this year comes to a close,
may I be honest with myself, steady in my heart,
and faithful to the wisdom my bones already carry.

Yeah… this lunation wants us to feel more than we usually let ourselves admit.

It’s revealing the fears we avoid.
The desires we downplay.
The dreams we pretend “aren’t realistic yet.”

Scorpio shows us the thing we secretly want — the thing we pretend not to want because it feels too big, too bold, too “who am I to even want that?”

Notice if you’re shaming yourself for wanting more. Because this New Moon is here to remind us that desire is sacred.

Scorpio rules peak experiences — intensity, truth, soul-level heat, the moment something cracks open and you feel fully alive.
This is why Scorpio rules orgasms and the act that leads to them. Not because it’s “about sex,” but because it’s about what happens when we finally let ourself want without apology.

Wanting to experience more is encoded in our DNA, it’s our nature speaking through us, wanting to reproduce.

This New Moon is showing you the next level your soul is ready for.

The Trap: Wanting the Thing but Thinking It Lives Outside You

Here’s where Scorpio energy gets tricky.

When we want more but secretly think it lives “out there”… we get obsessed.
We chase.
We spiral.
We “manifest” from fear instead of truth.

That’s the low road of Scorpio — fixation instead of embodiment.

So notice where you’re gripping to something you don’t have yet.
Where you’re fantasizing about timing.
Where you’re comparing yourself to imaginary versions of your future.

Catch yourself there.

That’s not desire — that’s fear wearing desire as a costume.
No wonder we celebrate Halloween during Scorpio season!

This New Moon wants us to feel the desire itself — not the outcome.
To let it open a portal in your body, your energy, your attention.

That level of honesty with yourself is the real vulnerability.
There’s no hiding here.
This is Scorpio’s specialty: truth that rearranges you.

And that’s when the transformation begins. It starts inside of you.

Emotional Intelligence, Scorpio Style

With the Sun, Moon, and Mercury very tight together in Scorpio, there’s a new emotional intelligence rising inside us. And not the “I processed this in my journal and think I’m fine” type.

It’s deeper.
Somatic.
Undeniably honest. Like an awakening of not going back to what it was before. An empowering way of looking at ourselves with compassion and the clarity that comes from inner knowing that comes from our bones.

This lunation asks:

What have I been afraid to feel?
What desire am I scared to admit?
What part of me is ready for more — even if I don’t know what “more” looks like yet?”

This is the beginning of a more honest relationship with your emotional body. One where your feelings are teachers, not inconveniences.

Something Is Dissolving — For a Reason

You might feel it already:
a version of you slipping away,
an identity loosening its grip,
a life you’re slowly outgrowing.

This Scorpio moment is the grief before the rebirth.
Because to welcome what’s coming, you have to mourn what’s leaving.

I’ve said it so many times in my newsletters:
The Saturn–Neptune conjunction at 0° Aries in February 2026 is a collective initiation.
A new role.
A new archetype we’re each stepping into.

This New Moon is reminding you of who you’re becoming next.

Uranus: How to Let Go Without Collapsing

With Uranus opposing this New Moon, there’s a very real question in the air:

“Can your body hold what your soul is revealing?”

Scorpio digs deep, but Uranus shakes the structure.

The combo is intense, though it teaches us how to:

• stay grounded during emotional intensity
• regulate instead of react
• receive truth without shutting down

The Grand Trine: Memory, Spirit, and Healing

This New Moon forms a grand trine with:

• Jupiter retrograde in Cancer — your emotional lineage, the patterns you inherited
• Saturn retrograde in Pisces — your spiritual devotion and inner responsibility

This is a gift we’re being given to understand what we couldn’t before and integrate the lessons as part of our life purpose.

This energy is like a reservoir of emotional wisdom.
But you only access it if you’re willing to feel.

Water heals, and it can also overwhelm.
Your presence decides which one.

With all three water signs - Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces being activated right now. This is something to consider:

We carry stories from people who came before us — ancestors who never had the space, safety, or consciousness to grieve what broke them.

But it’s not just ancestral. Sometimes what rises now is something you didn’t get to fully process in this lifetime… or something you thought you had already grieved.

Grief moves in spirals, not straight lines.

During Scorpio season, the veil gets thin.
Memories return.
Feelings resurface.
Connections with those who have passed feel closer, almost like they’re breathing with you.

Maybe you’ve felt that too — tenderness around old loss, an ache you thought had settled, a soft nudge from someone or something that’s no longer physically here.
I’ve felt it myself. My own grief has been resurfacing in a way that feels almost like a visitation — a reminder that love does not end, and neither does connection.

This moment isn’t about drowning in those memories.

It’s about releasing the emotional weight that was never yours to hold alone…
and honoring the grief that was yours, giving it the space it deserves, instead of tucking it away because “life moved on.”

Whatever is coming online for you right now is an invitation.
A reminder of what matters.
A whisper from the other side redirecting you toward your true mission here.

The water element is asking us to let the heart open just enough to let something through.

Let the waters move through you.
Let the grief soften you.
Let the desire wake you.

This is a passage.
A clearing.
A remembering.

As you step through this New Moon portal,
may you feel supported by your lineage,
guided by those on the other side,
and anchored in the version of you who is rising now, empowered, feeling safe in your body, at peace with the your story.

This is an excellent moment to do the ritual I left you for Mercury Retrograde!

Every time it rolls around, the astrology internet starts sounding alarms —

“Don’t sign contracts. Don’t speak your truth. Don’t make any decisions.”

And yes, while there’s truth to some caution (it’s not the best time to make final calls), here’s what really matters:

✨ When Mercury is retrograde in Sagittarius and Scorpio, our internal voice gets louder. Our truth comes out!

It’s often the time when you want to have that conversation, or finally express what’s been brewing beneath the surface — just do it knowing nothing is written in stone.

🌿 Astrology Isn’t Here to Control You

I hate to think of astrology as something that tells us what to do and when.
Its real magic lies in helping us understand why we feel moved to act — and to remind us that we always have free will.

After all, Sagittarius is about wisdom through lived experience.

So many people are afraid of “getting it wrong.”
But that’s exactly the medicine of this Mercury retrograde through Sagittarius and Scorpio:
it’s about facing imperfection and allowing yourself to learn through doing.

Be messy. Say the wrong thing. Be human.
That’s how we build humility — and intimacy — through real connection.

🔭 Mercury’s Path

• Starts retrograde: November 9, 2025, at 6° Sagittarius

• Backtracks into Scorpio: around November 19, 2025

• Goes direct: November 29, 2025, at 20° Scorpio

So yes — we’re moving from big, bold, opinionated Sagittarian truth-telling to deep, emotional Scorpio introspection.

And here’s your cosmic permission slip:

Don’t hold back. This isn’t the retrograde to stay quiet.

🔥 Mercury in Sagittarius: Say It Loud

Have you ever met someone with Mercury in Sagittarius (or a Sag Sun)?
Good luck getting them to edit themselves. They speak before they think — and that’s their beauty.

Sag energy is passionate, honest, unfiltered, and driven by the quest for truth.

So instead of shutting that impulse down — work with it.
Say the thing. Have the conversation. Express your perspective.
But also — stay open to being stretched by what others reflect back.

💡 The Medicine: Humility + Curiosity

You might say something that gets challenged.
You might realize you were wrong.

That’s growth. And that’s the point of this retro!

Be brave enough to say, “I didn’t see it that way.”
Real connection happens not through perfect communication, but honest communication.

So, in the spirit of that lesson, I’m applying that here. My New and Full Moon posts will still be shared with everyone, but part of each one — the deeper practices, reflections, and embodiment practices — will now be available to paid subscribers.

I want to start writing beyond the New and Full Moons — to bring you more of what I offer in my classes and client sessions: a therapeutic lens for looking at chart placements and life itself.

This feels like my way of honoring my own worth, while still offering meaningful astrology for everyone who reads and learns here. If you’ve been resonating with these writings and want to go deeper into the inner work behind them, I’d love to have you in that circle.

Now, let’s talk about this Taurus Full Moon — and why it’s one of the most grounding, reality-checking, and catalyzing moments of the year.

What you need to know about this lunation:

This Taurus Full Moon is a mirror reflecting back what you truly believe you deserve — in money, love, comfort, and care. It’s not just about earning more; it’s about embodying more value. About living a life that feels delicious — with all its textures, contrasts, and intensities.

This lunation reminds us what it feels like to hold our ground and find our center even as life moves through its inevitable ups and downs.

The Moon in Taurus sits opposite the Sun in Scorpio, both harmoniously aligned to the North Node in Pisces and the South Node in Taurus. This forms a gentle yet potent invitation to evolve our relationship with the material world without losing our connection to spirit. Pisces reminds us that abundance isn’t built only through hard work — it flows from trust, alignment, and the quiet knowing that we are supported.

This is a call to ground your spirituality — to remember that a tree can only grow as tall as its roots go deep. Not just to rise or “vibrate higher,” but to honor the descent — the primal, instinctive wisdom that lives in the body and the earth itself.

This Full Moon asks us to look to the earth as our source of spirituality. To return to our senses — to taste, touch, smell, and see the sacredness in the tangible. Because it’s here, in this physical realm, that our spirit learns how to truly feel at home.

The Venus Factor: Rewriting Worth

The ruler of this Full Moon, Venus, who is at the last degrees of Libra, brings attention to balance, fairness, and the art of receiving. Yet she’s squaring Jupiter in Cancer and Pluto in Aquarius, bringing up the deeper stories we hold about money, nourishment, and power.

These aspects ask: Where are you giving too much? Where do you still attach your worth to what you produce?
Pluto’s influence brings a kind of detox — clearing old power dynamics and revealing where fear still hides beneath your definition of “security.”

A few days ago, Venus opposed Chiron in Aries, touching that tender place within us that doubts our value. The one that equates rest with laziness, softness with weakness, or receiving with guilt.
This lunation invites you to release those outdated beliefs and rebuild from self-respect rather than self-protection.

We are in what I call the “twilight zone” — when time and space collide. It’s a portal where past, present, and future are entangled. What you do now can ripple backwards, healing old stories, and ripple forward, shaping the path ahead.

That’s why eclipses feel so intense:

• Old memories or people may resurface = the past asking for closure.

• Emotions feel amplified = the present demanding awareness.

• New insights and decisions = the future calling you forward.

Think of it this way: an eclipse is the bridge where timelines meet — the choices you make while crossing it can heal the road behind you and shape the path ahead.

That’s why it feels like we’re almost there and nowhere near it.

Near what? We’re not even sure. But it’s as if we’re on the brink of something…

Eclipses get you from where you’ve been to a brand new territory.

How Eclipses Work

You might be noticing significant changes — or not. It depends on your chart.

• If you have placements in Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, or Sagittarius, the shifts might be more obvious.

• For others, the changes may feel more subtle.

And remember: eclipses don’t just snap their fingers and bam — you’re in a different reality. Eclipses unfold over six months.

• Virgo & Pisces: These eclipses are LIFE CHANGING! They can shift the direction of your life by bringing changes to your physical body, appearance, personality, and how you see yourself or what you identify with; it's like a personal transformation and initiation of a new chapter of life that feels more in alignment with your authentic self. Your goals personal goals may shift because the self-discovery process that happens here helps you uncover new layers of your personality that you're going to want to present to the world (1st house). There are also changes in the dynamics of your relationships, bringing a balance between giving and receiving – lots of revisions, negotiations of old contracts, and letting go of outdated ways of viewing and approaching relationships. New relationships are formed, and existing relationships are usually taken to the next level, or they dissolve (7th house).

• Leo & Aquarius: bring changes to your personal values, self-worth, possessions, and finances—opportunities to increase your wealth, changes in your financial priorities, and shifts in how you work and make an income because being loyal to your values may be the drive to live in alignment with what is truly matters to you (2nd house). There’s also a deeper look at your psychological health, asking you for an emotional transformation to invite greater levels of trust and intimacy that get you in touch with your personal power, especially around topics related to shared resources/finances. Situations involving other people’s money, like handling loans, inheritance, and debt, can bring up lessons around attachment or repressing shadows, asking you to embrace the alchemical process of regeneration between culmination and rebirth (8th house).

• Cancer & Capricorn: These houses bring changes to your mindset, how you communicate, and a need to share your skills. There's a boost in mental activity inviting you to learn new skills that stimulate your intellect and help with your communication. You'll be looking for people to share ideas with, your curiosity will increase, you'll learn about many different topics, and you will also be called to write and do public speaking or marketing yourself. Changes in your immediate surroundings, such as in your neighborhood and also in your relationships with siblings. And also with transportation/vehicles and short-distance travel (3rd house). Situations come up that lead you to question and revise your philosophy, spirituality, beliefs, and perspective on major world topics like politics. Opportunities that expand your mind, such as travel and higher education, or new experiences that feel like an adventure that give you a new perspective on life.

• Gemini & Sagittarius: Changes to your home life to bring a more nurturing and supportive environment for yourself and your family. The relationships with parents and childhood are reviewed, asking for healing or a deeper connection with your heritage/lineage and reconciliation with the past. There's a need to revise your priorities and focus on your emotional well-being, spending more time at home or with loved ones, or rooting down with your living situation to feel a stronger sense of emotional security (4th house). Also, your place in the world or your life’s legacy is changing along with your career and reputation, what you’re publicly recognized for, and your relationship with people in authority. This is a time to reflect on your life path and purpose, feeling called to new career goals and a professional life that satisfies your big why in life. What makes you get up in the morning and say this is why I'm here!

• Taurus & Scorpio: Changes to your romantic life, how you creatively express yourself, tending to your hobbies, passions, and also life events involving children. You're being called to discover what tickles you, what fun means for you, and how to share that with those you love (5th house). There are also shifts in your friendships, community, audience, or social circle–your views, hopes, and aspirations for the future are changing, and you'll be inspired to connect with people who share your interests and goals. This is also a time when humanitarian causes or topics that serve a greater collective may call your attention (11th house).

• Aries & Libra: Changes to your daily routines, including your job, health habits, pets, and ways you show up in service to others. You may feel inspired to upgrade your health and well-being by revamping your diet, exercise, and wellness practices. Mental health plays a big role here, so the goal is to have a balanced lifestyle between work and rest, including having a work environment that feels supportive and meaningful (6th house). There's a shift in your spirituality, getting closer to your soul, becoming more sensitive and aware of mystical topics, and learning to let go of old karmic debts - lots of endings. You may become aware of subconscious patterns and experience heightened intuition, psychic abilities opening up, or a new understanding of the spiritual realm and the unconscious mind, which requires more time in solitude, going on retreats, or spending more time in introspection and reflection. Practices like meditation, yoga, and relaxation techniques may be highlighted during this time (12th house).

Virgo Energy: To-Do Lists & Self-Care

With the Sun, Mercury, and South Node in Virgo, the feeling is:

• What needs to get done?

• What needs to be accounted for?

But the invitation is to do it differently. It’s about leaving behind your old stress responses.

HOW?! Stop the complaining. Pause when you’re overwhelmed. Focus on the small steps you can take, moment by moment.

Virgo is a mental sign, ruled by Mercury. As a south node, we’re being asked to shift the conversations in our heads around our duties. The perspective you have on how you serve those around you could make you feel fulfilled or enslaved.

Jupiter’s sextile to Virgo blesses us with perspective. It gives permission to enjoy cozy, simple pleasures that bring you comfort — a meal, a TV show, family time — without guilt. How do you recharge?

Enjoy it fully. Don’t ruin it with coulds and shoulds. How do you take charge of the infiltrating thoughts? Take note of them. This is why making to-do lists works great for Virgo energy.

At the same time, notice if you’re too comfortable and avoiding responsibility. This full moon is about finding balance: Virgo (getting things done) vs. Pisces (rest).

Pisces Full Moon: The Soul Mission

A full moon in Pisces heightens intuition, creativity, and spiritual abilities. The right side of the brain lights up, pulling us toward imagination, daydreaming, and empathy.

You may feel like you’re carrying the energy of the world (Pisces) while trying to figure out what to do about it (Virgo). You’re not going crazy. This is the Virgo-Pisces axis at work, activating your soul’s mission.

And because this is a total lunar eclipse, it’s not about what your ego wants. It’s about your soul contract. Some of what’s showing up is out of your control. Eclipses teach us to surrender and trust the process.

The Karmic Mirror

Eclipses aren’t “bad.” They’re karmic — which simply means:

You receive what you’ve put out.

It’s the results of your actions, positive and negative. The Virgo-Pisces areas of your chart are now reflecting the energy you’ve invested. This becomes the blueprint for your next manifestations.

Eclipses are mirrors. They show us:

• What we’ve outgrown

• Where we can improve

• What we’re ready to explore next

Mars in Libra & Jupiter in Cancer

This eclipse also carries a tension between Mars in Libra and Jupiter in Cancer.

It shows up as the struggle to balance:

• Taking time for ourselves

• Caring for those we love

Be mindful of passive-aggressiveness. Sometimes overprotecting or over-caring for others is a way of avoiding our own inner work, disguised as love.

The medicine? Pause. Close your eyes. Feel what’s happening inside.

From that place, you can name your needs, give to yourself, and then communicate clearly with others.

Mars in Libra wants peace. Jupiter in Cancer wants healing — especially within families. As Jupiter trines the Moon and North Node in Pisces, we’re being asked to release limiting beliefs from our lineage and upgrade the stories we’ve inherited.

Feel gratitude for your ancestors. Know that many are supporting you because you are their answered prayer.

Saturn at the Edge of Pisces

Saturn at the final degree of Pisces reminds us:

• Some dreams have a future.

• Some don’t.

And over the next six months, that truth will become clear.

If you find yourself mourning the could-haves, should-haves, would-haves — remember: if it’s ending, it wasn’t built to last.

Saturn here also underscores the importance of spiritual hygiene — regulating emotions and strengthening your relationship with your higher self.

Because what’s coming in 2026 and 2027 requires a strong emotional vessel.

The Fog Before the Fire

This is why the eclipse feels like we’re almost there and nowhere near it. Pisces energy is vague, mysterious, nebulous.

The fog won’t fully lift until Saturn enters Aries in February 2026. That’s when clarity turns into action.

For now, the task is simple:

• Let the dream come through.

• Let the energy move.

• Feel deeply.

• Let inspiration rise.

Your emotions are your teachers.
Learn to regulate your nervous system.

That is the first step toward your next success story.

READ ABOUT YOUR NATAL NORTH AND SOUTH NODE. They’re being activated right now — helping you understand your soul’s mission!

This is because our prayers are being answered. Even if you haven’t said them out loud, the universe hears the yearning of your heart. And Leo season has a way of revealing exactly what’s in there.

With Mercury retrograding in Leo, you may find yourself revisiting the past to reframe it. You’re being invited to re-title old stories, to remember things differently, to give yourself a more empowering narrative. Childhood memories, passion projects, hobbies, finding love, and doing what you actually enjoy the most are some of the topics this Mercury retro is covering.

Pluto is exactly opposing this New Moon, asking you to examine your relationship with power. Are you trying to control how you're perceived? Are you performing to be liked? Or are you brave enough to be yourself? Fully, playfully, boldly – because you love what you're doing and who you're becoming? That’s Leo’s higher road: authentic expression for the joy of it. It’s something that expands your heart and makes you want to live longer to give more of what you love and enjoy.

Uranus freshly in Gemini is sextiling the New Moon, bringing sudden connections, aligned communities, and new ideas or conversations that feel like lightning bolts of truth. Saturn and Neptune in Aries trine the Moon, giving this moment structure and soul. You might feel the push to just go for it—whatever “it” is—with the humility to admit you’re still learning. This is maturity: trusting what you know AND being open to the unknown.

The fact that four of the five outer planets are aspecting this New Moon tells us that this new beginning is a pivot point. What starts now might not fully bloom until 2026, when Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus are fully installed in their new signs. But the seeds are being planted now, under this moment that is telling us to reinvent ourselves (Uranus), lead with integrity (Saturn), and align with spirit (Neptune).

And here’s something not often said about Leo season: it requires discipline. When so much light pours in (from the sign ruled by the Sun), we need a strong enough container to hold it. We build it with faith, prayer, and continuous devotion. Without that, the energy can burn. Just like love, it can be both exhilarating and terrifying.

The medicine? Spiritual connection. This is a time to deepen your relationship with the Divine to anchor the light that’s coming in and stay grounded in humility. Remembering that it’s not your light. It’s the Creator’s light shining through you.

You are a vessel for something greater. Let that remind you why your gifts matter. You’re not shining for applause. You’re shining to serve. Radiate your heart. Lead with generosity. Create for the joy of it. That’s how we channel the true light of Leo.

The theme we're working with is "BEING ENOUGH."

Reviewing the affirmations we've been working on, are there any that don't feel like it's true when you're saying them? Or also, from a different angle, where do you feel like you're not being enough?

Link to recommended affirmations

You can do the following exercise on your own after reading it, do the guided meditation, or do both! After doing this, it will be extra powerful if you can find a picture of yourself from when the not-enoughness emerged or just a younger version of yourself. Have the picture with you so you can tell her/him what you know now that you wish she/he would know then. Give that version of yourself the loving words you need then, and when you're done with this ritual, place the picture on your altar or a special place in your home. Buy yourself the most beautiful flowers you come across and place them around the photo, decorating the space as you feel inspired with the intention of honoring that version and lovingly showing her/him a new way.

MEDITATION:

Going back in the timeline of your life, look for when you started to believe the opposite of the affirmation or that you aren't enough. Remember the situation that led to this feeling, and when the feeling comes up, gently welcome it with love and let it know you are listening to its needs. Breathe here deeply for as long as you need to hold space for yourself. If your mind gets carried away, remind yourself that your mind is protecting you from this feeling but that you're here to heal it, and it's okay to feel this right now. Feel yourself being covered by the white light of unconditional love, which forgives through Love-Wisdom, teaching you with kindness so that you grow from this experience. Inhale deeply and slowly. Imagine light coming into your mind, illuminating it; see the light coming into your heart, illuminating it. See your past self being illuminated and bowing its head down with gratitude for this healing.

Bring your hands to the heart center, bow your head down and give thanks for all that made it possible for this moment, and thank yourself for being here!
