However, I wanted to start with the outer planets before going deeper into … Continue reading Pluto: From Capricorn to Aquarius
Mars Turns Direct January 12
Mars in Gemini is a weird transit, at least to me. Mars is the planet of action and passion. Gemini is a mutable air sign that loves communication and thinking, as it’s ruled by Mercury. However, there’s a need for constant activity and keeping things light. Depending on which house Gemini rules in your chart, … Continue reading Mars Turns Direct January 12

Venus in Capricorn brought themes of maturity and a serious nature to love. Now those restrictions give way to more freedom and experimentation in our social life.

With Venus in this sign, we may feel a sense of community and freedom to … Continue reading Venus enters Aquarius January 2
