Transmissions from the Future

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

Uranus takes about 84 years to journey through a sign. This is the first full day of Uranus in Gemini, kicking off a new era of communication -- stretching from the whisper between friends to the pulse of planetary networks. The last time Uranus was here, the world cracked open through war, codebreaking, suburban sprawl and the birth of ...Read more

Solar Sandwiches

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

A hundred years ago, making a sandwich required superior knife skills and the will to continue with but one more of the mountain of repetitive tasks in the invisible load of typical domestic housework. Then, on July 7, 1928, the first presliced loaf of bread was sold. Even children could make their own sandwiches. It was neater, quicker, and ....Read more

On International Kissing Day

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

A lunar opposition to Venus crashes International Kissing Day, recalling the versatility of a kiss. It can reanimate the girl asleep for a century, turn the frog to a prince, betray the holy. A kiss can cross into risky territory, seal fate, put the power in a spell, be the heart in a ritual, or the reason for a head cold. The point is, what ...Read more

The Neptunian Retrograde

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

"Who looks outside dreams; who looks inside awakes," said the poetic pioneer of subconscious studies Carl Jung. As you move in the group hypnosis of society, other people's opinions, status, rewards... you may not feel fully conscious. But look inside and you'll find something else: fears, motives, desires and shadows that stir your courage ...Read more

Fireworks Above and Below

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

The fireworks are physical and metaphoric on an American Independence Day that lands on one of the most cosmically dynamic days of the year. Rapid-fire lunar aspects set the mood, while Venus conjuncts Uranus and changes signs just as Neptune turns retrograde. The celestial upheaval mirrors the shifting screen of American identity itself -- a ...Read more

Before the Change of Venus

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

On the day before a Venus change, there's no shame about being on the fence. For one thing, the fence gives you a vantage point to see each side. Once you jump off the fence, you'll mostly see things from one side or the other. Now you can view both. Of course, it's very hard to make progress atop a fence. When it's time to move, you'll need ...Read more

Lunar Tests of Character

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

The lunar squares emphasize the need to lead with integrity. That means doing it the same alone as you would when people are watching. Also, even when it feels like no one's noticing, they are. In fact, someone's watching you to figure out how to behave, so whatever you do, they will also do. Does that change your agenda?

Trines and Oppositions

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

To protect your soul's thriving is your main job, so it follows that you'd try to take care of yourself first, but that's not always possible or wise. "Me first" is often bad manners, a bad look, and bad for your personhood, too. Today's tricky omens offer opportunity for prioritizing self-care and yet somehow still letting others go first.

A Sky Unwritten

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

How does one read the astral omens on a day that brings no new news? No planets changing signs or directions, no luminaries forming angles -- it's like rolling blank dice. They show the dots you want them to show. What dots would help you win? What experience do you want to have? The sky is a blank page; the day is unwritten.

The Story of You

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

Mercury and Pluto in opposition emphasizes the necessity to express what's meaningful to you. Don't let other people tell your story. It will benefit you to put the truth of your experience in your own words. "This is what happened. This is how I felt. This is what I noticed." You'll need this later. Also, it doesn't need to be logical. It ...Read more

In a Neptunian Trine

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

Since the concept of "sin" isn't fixed but shaped by time, place and context, what society once condemned might now seem harmless, odd or admirable. Behavior labeled "wicked" in one era or culture may later be seen as a personal choice, an art form or even a virtue. The trine of Mercury and Neptune reminds us that even though morality and ...Read more

Lunar Crush

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

Crushes aren't age-bound; they're psychological and physiological responses to admiration, longing, idealization and more. Even mature individuals are still human, with tender hearts and nervous systems wired for attraction, novelty and fantasy. The difference is that mature people often have a stronger filter; they may not act on these ...Read more

Mercury Change

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

What is a story? So many think they are telling one when in fact it has none of the elements: a character in their usual state, a disruption that changes everything, a struggle to adapt and a resolution -- even if it's unresolved. Mercury's shift today invites you to think like a storyteller. What's the shake-up? What's your response? How will...Read more

Mamma Moon

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

The new moon in Cancer is the ideal mother. She wants us to succeed even though she knows that success might mean we'll fly far. She wants to give us everything but doesn't because it's the limits that form our character. In this moment of the moon's blessing, what would you nurture in yourself if you were her? "We are born of love; love is ...Read more

The Constant Coach

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

The lunar activity in the sign of nurturing bodes well for improvements that stick. We really do learn something from each and every interaction. Some of the lessons are obvious in the moment, and others won't be revealed to us for years, if they ever are. But all teachings are absorbed in some way. Experience is our constant coach and won't ...Read more

No Spoilers

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

The cosmic squares to Mars and Neptune ratchet up the tension, but a fortuitous situation with Jupiter suggests "all's well that ends well" (which also happens to be history's most spoilerific Shakespearean play title!). The omens are auspicious for those outcomes teetering precariously in the balance. It is said that the difference between ...Read more

The Wisdom of Want

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

The sun may be in Cancer, but the heat is in Taurus today with two lunar conjunctions activating emotion around the material world -- our possessions, needs, wants, cravings and their accompanying visceral sensations. First, it's Venus, then Uranus that emphasizes the wild wisdom that can come from acknowledging desirous impulses even if we ...Read more

On a Conjunction of the Moon and Venus in Taurus

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

When something is free, people often assume it's limitless or low-value, even if it's excellent. It applies to more than goods. Putting a price -- monetary or otherwise -- on your time, energy, attention and emotional labor attracts those who actually value what you offer. Boundaries are a form of pricing. And when you set them, you invite ...Read more

On the Summer Solstice

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

The future never arrives, but it doesn't abandon us completely. Motion. Motion! All motion is a kind of falling into the unknown. All motion leans toward an idea that is unsecured. You are trusting a trajectory that hasn't proven itself yet. You are moving toward a state that hasn't solidified. All this risk, this hope. It's beautiful.

Coincidentia Oppositorum on the Cusp of the Solstice

Entertainment / Horoscopes /

You are joy and sorrow. Confidence and fear. Logic and chaos. No need to simplify yourself to be consistent or to be acceptable. Live in the tension of the "coincidentia oppositorum." Be kind and angry; strong and needy. You can be confident and uncertain. You don't have to exile one side to keep the other. The contradictions are not a flaw; ...Read more
