Cosmic Candor

So it’s Tax Day in the U.S. But more importantly, Venus — the planet that rules love and money — is moving into Taurus, the sign that is best at handling love and money. What a sweet cosmic coincidence! When Venus moves into Taurus this Monday, April 15, many of us (myself included) will be…

Mercury in Aries always makes me feel like I’ve had a little too much Chardonnay at lunch. But this time I’m going to get prepared! Mercury, the planet that rules our thoughts and speech, is racing into bold Aries on Saturday, April 13. Whenever Mercury is in Aries, we all notice a collective speed-up in…

I don’t know anyone who thinks taxes are fun. They’re too complicated, they eat into your precious time and more often than not you owe more money than you thought you would. Of course, this is our civic duty and I’m only grumbling slightly. But the truth is, I do think tax reform is in…

Pluto is such a misunderstood planet. I can remember growing up in the era of “Mork & Mindy,” and I would get very confused whenever I heard Mork say “Don’t ever go to Pluto, it’s a Mickey Mouse planet.” Huh? What? But I get it now. Pluto is a Mickey Mouse planet, in that some…

I’ve been getting ready for tomorrow’s New Moon in Aries for what feels like weeks! And that’s because it’s all about ME ME ME. OK, well, it’s also about YOU. The Full Moon in Aries on Wednesday, April 10 is a fiery lunation that gives everyone the right to be selfish for a spell. And…

If you’ve been waiting for something exciting to happen, this could very well be your week! There’s a New Moon in fiery Aries on Wednesday that’s supposed to push us forward; then Pluto goes retrograde on Friday, turning us inward; and Mercury blasts into Aries on Saturday, empowering our words. You still with me? It’s…

We’re coming up on a super-sexy weekend, my friends! All the astrologers seem to agree that Friday will be fun and flirty, and not to be taken seriously in matters of the heart … but hold on! It’s Saturday that’s special. The Moon moves into dreamy Pisces and aligns with Neptune in the afternoon, then…

Hmmmmm, interesting. I just read Maria DeSimone’s new blog about how every zodiac sign has a lesson to learn, and she talked a great deal about how selfish Aries is. That sounds bad, right? Except the way she put it, well, it’s not. Sure, Aries is fiery and blustery, and they tend to charge ahead…

Wow, we’re only three days into April and I can already feel a flurry of change happening around me. Friends are traveling, starting new jobs, relocating to new cities and having babies all around me. April is always full of this fiery energy that gets us moving again, and it’s affecting me, too. I want…

Well, we made it through April Fool’s Day unscathed — at least I did, and I hope you did, too. But that’s not the only good news: This just so happens to be one of the best weeks of the entire year! We’re starting the week under the influence of a supportive sextile between the…
