Episode 33. Gemini Season: Don’t Throw Shade on the ‘Grade

Summary

Gemini season is here, sweet Friends. Here’s a little mantra for us this season: “If you see something, say something.” We’ve got Mercury in Gemini through June 22 and during that time, Mercury is retrograde from May 29 – June 21. As I mentioned in my blog post “Mercury in Gemini: Get Your Mind Right,” this is an invitation to celebrate communication in all of its forms, and truly slow our role and benefit from the reflective energies of this retrograde season. It’s also an important time to speak up about injustices in all their forms. In the spirit of “If you see something, say something,” by all means, share the wealth about the good, juicy stuff and shout out great resources you admire. I am so pleased to give shout outs to peeps who have helped me grow and learn the intricacies inherent in deciphering astrology:

Jessica Lanyadoo of Ghost of a Podcast. Her recent interview with Tony Howard of Astrology University is outstanding and shines light on Mars out of bounds. 

Renee Sills of Embodied Astrology. Her subscriber offerings are off the chain and by far, the best deal in town. 

My beloved and wise astrology teacher Monte Farber of the Enchanted World. You can sign up for his online classes on Soultopia. 

Fellow Long Islander Colin Bedell of Queer Cosmos

We also explore The Lovers card in the Tarot in this episode and how we can lean on this card to help us make more life affirming choices. If you’d like to dig deeper into the Lovers card and how it associates with the sign of Gemini, listen to Episode 5. Gemini Season: The Lovers, The Dreamers and You and Me.

Episode 32. Full Supermoon in Scorpio and Exploring Planetary Placements

Summary

Here’s a little mini episode / experiment on the eve of this Pink Supermoon in Scorpio: we’re exploring some of the current planetary placements and forecasting what these might feel like for us. Let’s cast out our lines and check ’em out: 

Pluto in Capricorn: 2008 – 2024 (Pluto retrograde from April 27 – October 6). Forecast: We’ll be revisiting rules, restrictions and structures to see if they are truly working on both micro and macro levels

Mars in Cancer: April 23 – June 11. Expect quite a bit of velocity behind emotions (for better or for worse)

Mercury in Gemini: May 3 – June 22 (Retrograde from May 29 – June 21). While not in retrograde, innovative thinking and communication, with perhaps a splash of spunk thanks to trickster Mercury. While in retrograde, doubling down on revisiting all things mercurial: communication, thought patterns, linguistics, writing.

Venus in Gemini: May 8 – June 2. Comfort in communication, ease-filled thinking, smooth cognition.

Jupiter in Pisces: May 13 – July 28. Expansive intuition, big intuitive hits. A great time to learn a divination skill or polish one you already know and love. You might enjoy my free online Tarot class where we study the significance of the number five and the corresponding cards in the Tarot. Enroll for free!

Last but not least: The first Pink Full Supermoon of 2021 occurs in Scorpio on April 26: Big feelings, intensified emotions, perhaps uncovering areas of emotional wounding. Also the potential for extra sexy activity (thank you, Scorps!)

Let’s monitor how my mini forecasts play out over these next several weeks. You are welcome to share your feedback in a message or by voicemail.
