Cosmic Candor

RAWR! It’s Leo time! I have a Leo Rising, so I always come alive when the Sun moves into Leo, which it did today at 3:01 a.m. (PT). What I love about the Sun in Leo is how it seems to make everyone more playful, creative and romantic — and we also get a burst…

Happy Moon Day! It’s the 43rd anniversary of man’s first walk on the Moon by Neil Armstrong on July 20, 1969, and I’m looking at it as the perfect opportunity to celebrate all things lunar. Right now the Moon is in lively Leo, which makes us a little more playful and show-offy than usual. Leo…

I saw a question on the Tarot.com Facebook page the other day that asked, “Do you believe in reincarnation,” and I was blown away to see how many people responded, and how many of those replied yes. Reincarnation is a fascinating topic for me, and it sounds like I’m in good company. I’ve been intrigued…

I love new things. New friends, new adventures, new shoes and New Moons! Tonight’s New Moon in Cancer (9:24 p.m. PT / 12:24 a.m. ET) begins a new lunar cycle, so it’s time once again to spend a little bit of time thinking about what I want to happen in the month ahead. The New…

Have you had any flashes of brilliance in the past week? I sure have. My best idea yet was deciding to bring my disco ball camping, where I then proceeded to make a rope out of duct tape (more brilliance!) and then hung it between two trees. Why? Why not? Don’t get me wrong, I…

Love is complicated enough without Mercury Retrograde adding to the confusion, darn it. I mean, like we really need more miscommunication when it comes to matters of the heart, right? Well, get ready for it, because Mercury Retrograde is here, and I already had a disagreement with my boyfriend in the first five minutes. (He…

What are you doing today? I know what I’ll be doing: Backing up my hard drive, taking my car for a tune-up and double-checking my campground reservations for this weekend. Why? Because Mercury goes retrograde tomorrow, and I want to be ready for it! Ok, to be honest I probably won’t do any of the…

As a freedom-loving Gemini, I can’t help but wonder if I’ll even notice when Uranus goes retrograde this Friday the 13th. It’s happening one day before Mercury also goes retrograde, and I know I’ll feel THAT — but Uranus Retrograde? Maybe not so much. I say that because Uranus Retrograde is all about freedom —…

You know that saying, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade?” Well, Mercury goes retrograde this Saturday, July 14, and I’m prepared to make Retrograde Lemonade. Actually, I prefer a quote from Paul Rudd in the movie “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” in which his surfer dude character says, “When life gives you lemons, just say _…

Wow, I just realized we’re officially halfway through 2012! I always like to take a moment at the mid-point of the year and look back at the Yearly Astrology Forecast to see how accurate it’s been, and to refresh my mind on what to expect for the second half of the year. 2012 is an…
