Hello there! I hope that you are happy and safe where you are ~ thank you for reading this horoscope newsletter :)
In spite of being in massage school currently and feeling a bit pulled this way and that way, which might explain my lack of activity on YouTube and the like, it is still a privilege to look at such complex astrology like this. I come back to from time-to-time this idea of living with a knowledge of the living language of astrology during a time that Nostradamus was foretelling, during a time where something called “conjunctional astrology” signifying profound cultural, physical and energetic shifts based on massive outer planets coming together in the sky.
This week, we do see a very profound conjunction that comes around only once every 13 years or so ~ and that is the conjunction of Jupiter and Uranus. This is very exciting for all of us personally and in the world there may be something that plays out that none of us are expecting to do with the “stuff of” Taurus ~ agriculture, finance, the general value system of the world, tradition… this area is really being shaken up on a lot of levels. This is why we continue to see heightened weather events and “disruptive” earth changes as well.
For us personally, this conjunction, exact on Saturday, could lead into things turning out better than we anticipate them to, through the situations that may seem like they surely bring their weight in “shock value.” I have gone over for subscribers how this will impact your sign a few times in the last few months :) For all of us in one way or another, this looks like a shaking of the players on our personal board and the circumstances we find ourselves in. This is where things completely change “kinda” out of nowhere. Typically the Jupiterian gifts that come in the form of growth, changes and expansion in our lives come at the end of a Jupiter transit so with this we are sure to experience the surprising fruits of the seeds we have been planting with Jupiter in Taurus until he sashays into Gemini on May 25th until June 9th of 2025.
With Jupiter in Taurus and Saturn in Pisces, we have actually had a fair amount of stability since the start of the Jupiter-Saturn cycle when they conjoined in Aquarius on December 1st 2021. Not only is Taurus a very stable sign (even when it’s unstable) but the sextile to Saturn almost brings a sense of fatherly discipline and keeping-it-together-ness. At this point, Jupiter has moved out of that sextile and will continue to move out of its stable point in Taurus, which is why we are sewing the seeds of stability through this Taurus transit, knowingly or unknowingly.
The virtue once Jupiter moves into Gemini is the ability to adapt. If you can adapt to the ever-changing flow of information without getting swept up in it and keep your feet on the ground during an exceptionally escapist, ungrounding time, this will be a huge advantage. I anticipate that the changing tides of information, changing definitions of words, emphasis on what words mean, will become very important through this transit as well as the ability to find the delicious center of the Gemini tootsie roll pop which is the mystical center of the polarity. There’s no doubt in my mind that polarity and continued destabilization are on the menu, as are lighthearted, communal and almost renaissance times, in the same breath. By striving to walk the middle path, we are able to navigate this transit with much more ease and grace. Gemini is not a sign that takes life too seriously, at all ~ it has a “heyoka” or kinda trickster energy to it.
During this transit, specifically in August and late December/early January 2025, Jupiter and Saturn will square for the first time in this cycle in mutable signs Gemini and Pisces. In my opinion the personal advantage and positive aspect of this to be “yoked” is a greater if not crippling level of awareness of our subconscious and unconscious recesses available to us, which does bring about discomfort, but ultimately “enlightenment.”
This kind of reminds me of the Yuri Bezmenov idea of ideological subversion in a way, at the same time. Saturn in Pisces is planting very sneaky, unconscious seeds of new religious ideas that may not be for our highest and best, through engineered end-times-looking symbolism and events (a la most recent eclipse, the red heifer sacrifice and the anticipated build of the third temple). Jupiter in Gemini and Saturn in Pisces in square could bring about ideologies and specifically religious ideas that are bound to have a snare in there, somewhere.
I do believe, however, that we can use this to our advantage. Jupiter-Saturn squares demand that we confront things, both in the world and in our lives, so that we can shift and change them. These aspects don’t really feel easy, especially if you have middle-decan (10-20 degrees) placements in Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius or Pisces.

But now, onto the weekly interpretation ~
Monday, Mercury retrograde is in the middle of doing its very interesting thing of going over in conjunction the Sun, Chiron, the North Node and friends, inducing a lot of healing, revealing and awareness of certain wounds that are rising to the top like cream on the top of raw milk to get our attention. Monday allows us to soothe ourselves through feelings of potential inadequacy or where we haven’t properly been able to express ourselves and speak our truth.
The moon will move into Leo and will forge its opposition to Pluto on Monday as well. This moon in Leo will trine Venus, Chiron, the North Node, the Sun and Mercury retrograde in the course of its transit until Thursday when the moon moves into Virgo, which is lovely, but comes with a bit of an emotional jolt or something coming kinda out of left field. This beginning of the week is pretty sensitive/emotionally delicate so take care of yourself where needed.
Especially late afternoon (east coast) on Wednesday, the moon will square Jupiter and Uranus which is where things can look or emotionally appear different than they are. Jupiter and Uranus coming into this exact conjunction creates this sensation of blessings in our lives through the end of the week so if there’s something that comes up from Monday to Wednesday to react to, maybe per the energetic distribution of the week, it’s not quite what it seems.
Also on Wednesday, Venus and Mercury are going to link up in Aries, with Mercury of course having been retrograde since April 1st. Mercury is going to be within a few degrees of stationing direct on (on April 25th) so there may be something revealing about this conjunction that comes up to surface more when Mercury is moving back over the Aries brigade (Venus, the North Node and Chiron) in its direct station which in my opinion will clear *a lot* up and will be the time that Mercury is figuring things out before moving into Taurus on May 17th.
Venus and the North Node meet up for an energy that feels almost destined and fated but in a way that may be unconventional, different from what we expect. This has the energy of us knowing to really put ourselves out there. There’s a hunger that comes with this aspect and overwhelming desire to pursue something and along with that there’s a knowing that we ourselves can really “fill ourselves up” so to speak.
Thursday, the moon moves into Virgo and will oppose Mars and Saturn on Friday which is honestly quite anxious and restrictive, but this does pass. On Saturday the moon will oppose Neptune which is kinda sleepy and with the rest of the weekend events it may feel challenging to keep our feet on the ground.
Friday, the Sun moves into Taurus and advances us into the middle of spring ~ this is going to be a Taurus season to remember and with a massive “pop” at the very beginning. A good question to ask ourselves is what are we valuing? Are we walking the walk in our lives? Taurus season will challenge us to materialize and make things real. Happy birthday to all of the Taurus Suns who read this!
The despositor of Taurus, Venus is moving into a conjunction with Mercury retrograde in Aries on Friday which has the signature of running into an old friend and them reminding them who you are. When Venus comes together with Mercury, people are generally kinder, though in Aries the filter is still out the window. This seems like it would foster empowerment and strength-building at the very least and Venus gets a piece of information as she heads into the conjunction with Chiron. This is maybe a bit of an uncomfortable introduction to Taurus season though it does have many of intriguing twists and turns that could be personally better than we could imagine.
Mars in Pisces forms a beautiful action-based spiritual scaffolding in the form of a sextile to Jupiter and Uranus on Friday. This screams inspired action and the pieces falling into place in a big way in areas of our lives (Pisces, Taurus) that are really lit up right at the moment. This extremely creative, natural aspect on Friday that precedes the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction being exact on Saturday and gives us sort of this precognition that things are on the brink of major changes.
Venus will connect with Chiron for some uncomfortable moments on Saturday. happening alongside the Jupiter-Uranus transit. Venus already feels pretty uncomfortable being in Aries and there’s this wound around our identity and who we are that can be revealed and self-worth issues come to the surface. Because Jupiter and Uranus are both in Taurus, ruled by Venus, this energy does affect what is breaking through in our lives in a shocking way. How honest are we able to be with others and ourselves about our capacity, needs and values?
Saturday will be wild I bet with the energy as Jupiter and Uranus connect, which I have written about extensively for each sign in the past month and a half. Anything goes and things can pivot and change on a dime, so my recommendation is to not cling too tightly to the way that things are and to embrace the changes that comes up from the space of the observer.
This definitely feels like an aspect of accelerated development and growth and things are moving very quickly, seemingly, even though Mercury is retrograde, so just truly have fun with this aspect and the manifestations that unfold out of it from seeds we’ve been planting for actual years.
The moon moves into Libra on Saturday as well, bringing back the themes of the Venus energy and the discomfort that she currently feels. This Venus-Chiron conjunction by Sunday has already moved off, but the moon in Libra will highlight this space, which is great for processing what is coming up in that area, and will oppose Mercury, Venus, Chiron and the North Node for some serious realizations in the wake of this extreme Jupiter-Uranus transit.
