ALL ABOARD - Mercury has left Pisces, thankfully. We look forward to increasing clarity over the next couple of weeks. Entering Aries just after midnight, Mercury will bump into Neptune, Saturn, Mars and Chiron before departing the warrior’s headspace.

The Pisces Moon will shift to Aries around 11am and as she makes her way to the new moon conjunction with the Sun she will bump into these planets too.

It’s a crunchy time and going to get a little more crunchy over the remainder of this week into the next…perhaps the next. Keep your wits about you. Of course with almost every planetary body in Aries there will be focus in the Aries’ themes…assertiveness, impulse, defence, protection, anger, frustration….

The cards ask us to prepare. Which priorities are top priorities now. What ball do you not want/cannot drop? The Two of Pentacles from the Capricorn decans asks how can you find your balance between all the responsibilities you are juggling at this time? This is not the time to stress…you got this. Find the sweet spot in your capacity.

The Four of Pentacles can go both ways…protecting what’s yours and/or holding so tight that no other thing can find its way to you. On one hand you may be behaving wisely…on the other perhaps a little selfish. Knowing the truth within is key. Feel into what you might be extra protective of right now. Are you guarding because you feel there is a real threat to losing what you got?

As the Aries train gets moving, with a new moon ahead, getting your boundaries right makes sense. And, also, knowing when to lighten up, give a little, and share can lead to generosity. And, too, taking care of your own needs will ensure that when you are needed you will actually have capacity. ✨

THE DARK MOON PRESSES - The Moon will be in Pisces until tomorrow around 11am. This dark moon, balsamic phase, is in the last sign of the zodiac. The other planets have moved on. We felt this, the coming, the going….fall & winter. Now, it’s spring but it hasn’t been clear. Spring took its time to arrive. Can you feel it in your body? The aliveness? In your breath? In a ginormous stretch…raising our arms to the Sun. Yes, we say. Yes, please. Bring it on.

But first…this Moon as she transitions from the collective unconscious of Pisces to the singularity of Aries will take us to a place not quite done, not quite complete. The final threshold is ahead of us. And yet, wait. It doesn’t feel all there.

Mercury remains in Pisces…our thoughts, our working minds are still in a place of dreaming. Today, Mercury speaks to Uranus in Ta**us. The same aspect as the others who have passed by this space. Mercury will then transition to Aries followed by the Moon.

What are you building? What feels close to birthing? Where have you felt fulfillment these past months? The Ten of Cups…urging us to reach for our biggest dreams.

What did you plant over the winter? Is it beginning to take shape? This is the dark moon phase…we define and refine. Go within and pull out what hasn’t been fertile and plant what has. The one seed that presses in your mind will become clearer as Mercury moves out of Pisces.

This deck - The Star Seeker Tarot - has as its last major, The Womb. What is waiting, receiving? We have been in hibernation. Time to awaken. Things are moving even if you don’t realize it. Soon, the one seed will become too big to ignore.

The Seven of Pentacles…I surrender to powers greater than me, now. I trust that what is meant for me will not pass me by. The devotion to the one seed requires work and applied effort to become the flower of tomorrow.

The dark moon is pressing on me. It feels very tender here. ✨

GOD’S RAYS - We wake to a Pisces Moon. We wake to Mars and Neptune in conjunction in Aries. We wake to Venus in Ta**us in sextile with Jupiter in Cancer. Jupiter and Neptune co-rule the Pisces area of our chart; one traditional and one modern. Remember Pisces season? Eclipse season? Winter ending. Spring barely begun.

The Pisces Moon can feel a little like floating. Mars in conjunction with Neptune can feel like the direction you had in mind is not as linear anymore. And Venus in sextile to Jupiter can feel like a super big embrace. Today, may be a good day not to make too many significant decisions or participate in anything that requires awareness and concentration. Today, we float in the god’s rays.

The cards bring the water….all cups. The Ace of Cups is an opportunity for emotional fulfillment. The Eight of Cups is an opportunity to release any emotional baggage. The Page of Cups is an opportunity to connect to your inner essence.

It might be a good time to get real with yourself and how you are feeling…what your heart wants …no guilt or embarrassment. What is. If this means letting go of what is heavy, then that is what is. If this means getting out of your own way and exploring a thing, doing a thing, feeling a thing…differently than before, then this is what is. If this means taking the day to rediscover your inner guru, then this is what is.

Pause in your own true light. Take in your own glowing radiance. Touch the eternal flame that lives inside of you. Feel that for yourself, today. ✨

HONOUR YOUR LIMITS - Happy Venus Day! Venus is in Ta**us, the home of her comfort and pleasure pursuits. What feels good to your body?

The Moon is in Capricorn until sundown or so. Today is the last quarter moon. This is a time where we refine and rewrite our intentions for this past lunar cycle. What has worked? What needs to be released?

The Capricorn Moon can work on our boundaries around work…work in the real world, work at home, in the yard. All work and no play. With all the planets in Aries and Mars entering this domicile yesterday we can feel like it’s now or never. Go. Go. Go. Energetically, this can be a lot. When the adrenaline and assertion comes up we can jump into action. But maybe we take a beat.

Full out. All the way on. The Explorer (Knight) of Wands goes. They are on a mission. Coming in hot! And a little of this energy goes a long way. It can motivate us. We can feel alive! Just notice when you are abandoning your responsibilities and before you know it….it’s all burned down.

The Ten of Swords is driving the swords into the stump. The tree is already cut. No more swords are needed. This cards asks us if we are being sucked into some melodrama. Are there real concerns? Or are you up in your head about it?

The Guardian (Queen) of Cups floats into and around the fire, the brimstone, the over-the-top and provides a warm embrace. Where are you emotionally? This Queen asks you to protect your emotional energy, to know your limits, and to step back so you can see what is influencing these reactions.

The Moon enters Aquarius this evening where we can find it easier to work with the Aries energy that’s coming into our energetic fields. ✨

AND WE’RE OFF - Mars returns to their domicile today. Two long years around the cosmic wheel. They return home to find Chiron still in this place. The Sun King with his feet up. Neptune and Saturn creating a mutual huddle space.

Mars is our warrior. Mars is action, aggression, frustration, anger but also defense and protection. You’re standing guard over something or someone? This is Mars. Feel like blowing your top? This is Mars. And depending on where Mars is in your chart, you will apply the energy in a certain way.

Mars has been in Pisces for what seems like an eternity. Not quite clear on direction. Not totally onboard with goals. The winter has been long and now that Mars is home we are going to see and feel an uptick in “let’s go!” “give ‘er!”

But not too fast as Mars has to traverse the Neptune/Saturn huddle up. Monday with Neptune and the following Sunday with Saturn. So as we begin our Mars in Aries journey we may be asked to make sure our house is in order before we pile on any more. Mars in Aries is bold.

The Four of Pentacles comes through with a question…where are you hanging on? Rigid? Unwilling? In the pentacles realm it could show up in your approach to time, money, or resources. We may need to focus on unclenching our attachment here. Mars is I AM.

The Eight of Swords brings an awareness…how restricted are your thoughts? Sometimes the more you think the more you get stuck. You may need to explore an internal shift in perspective to release. Instead of thinking about how stuck you are, think about how you can figure it out.

Mercury comes out from their shadow today, moving on from their retrograde period. New landscape. New territory to explore. Give yourself some time to get where you’re going. Notice. Be aware. The fog is lifting. ✨

NOT ALL AS IT SEEMS - How far do you want to go? I mean with anything…how far are you willing to take it? Morning, dear ...
04/08/2026

NOT ALL AS IT SEEMS - How far do you want to go? I mean with anything…how far are you willing to take it? Morning, dear ones 🫂 We wake to a world not the same as yesterday.

The Moon is in Sagittarius but within the hour will land in Capricorn. A practical grounded place. Praise be. The Capricorn Moon is ruled by a fallen Saturn in Aries. On Friday, we will have the final moon here. Along the way, the Capricorn Moon will square the planetary bodies in Aries…Neptune, Saturn, the Sun. She will also trine Venus in Ta**us and oppose Jupiter in Cancer before Friday. She is doing a lot this Capricorn Moon. What are you securing? What priorities are you ensuring? Who are your mentors? Collaborators?

Mars has been in Pisces since March 2. Mars, the warrior, red planet has been floating along in the collective fog. Who? Where? What? It has been hard to get it together and make a move. Mars will enter their home area of Aries tomorrow morning, early. Make hay while the Sun shines!

Today, though, Mars in Pisces forms a sextile with Uranus in Ta**us…at 29 degrees. The final degree. Something comes up to meet us. A moment of clarity. A moment of yes. It is fleeting…a quick transit. Connect in through meditation and ask the cosmic gods for a message.

The cards today from the Mystical Moments tarot say yup fleeting. That place you want to go, the horizon, the Two of Wands is out there beyond your reach just now. And The Moon (Pisces’ card 😉) recognizes the fear, the anxiety, the unknown that we are all feeling.

Things don’t have to happen right away. Not today, not even tomorrow. But we can lean into the one day just a little. Settle your body in a chair, hand to heart…. imagine ✨

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us

FIRE IN THE SKY - The Sagittarius Moon sends an arrow to the Aries Sun. Fire to fire. Mutable to cardinal. Yang to yang. It is bold. It is optimistic. It is a high five. The Sag Moon will also square Mercury in Pisces…the adventurer and the poet. You may feel compelled to wax eloquently about the bigger picture, the greater vision, or some theme to that effect.

To me, it feels very calm before the storm. I am hesitant to go all in for optimistic revelations. But that’s my experience. Yours may differ dramatically. Feel into the emotional body for what rises in your spirit. This is the intelligence of the moment.

The cards ask for hope and vision. And they temper this with a steady as you go mantra. The Star is the card after the blasted Tower in the tarot. When it all falls apart, The Star says there is still hope. The King of Pentacles is grounded in reality and works in collaboration with the land spirits. The King of Pentacles reminds us that impulse may not be the best course. That a well thought out plan would be more suited to the day.

This does not mean that we cannot shine our light for others to see or follow. The universe has removed something from your experience in order to make space for something greater. The Star comes when we are close to closing a chapter that has been difficult.

The King of Pentacles asks you to work with their energy to make this next thing last. We strengthen our boundaries when we are grounded and nurturing that part of ourselves that is connected to the earth. Channel your wisdom through this grounded connection.

There are around 19 days before Uranus shifts into Gemini…leaving Ta**us for another 84 years. In your Ta**us house what is reaching culmination? What has grown? What has changed? What has been turned upside down?

There is fire in the sky with the planets making their way to the Aries landscape. By mid April there will be six planetary bodies in Aries. And then the Moon arrives.

This Sagittarius Moon sends the light that way. This is the cosmic action. What is it like to be you, now, in your earth body? Fire in the sky…fire in the belly. Two feet firmly planted 😉✨🫶

WHERE TO NOW - The Moon has slipped into Sagittarius ♐️ and freedom lifts the body out of the Scorpionic waters. It feels expansive. The sign of the archer…pull back your arrow. Sag is a mutable fire sign, very yang. An outward expression of our spirit. We ride!

The nodes of the moon are mathematical points along the moon’s elliptical orbit. They are the place of eclipses. There are two…one north, where we hunger, want and one south, where we are comfortable, experienced.

Currently, the nodes are in Pisces (north) and Virgo (south). Here we try to find a balance between the hunger for divine connection and earthly logic. We feel a push/pull between grounding and dreaming. This is the praxis of the healer and the mystic.

Today, Venus trines the Virgo South Node from her place in Ta**us…a place she rules to a place Mercury rules. Venus will also sextile the Pisces North Node…a place she is exalted and where Mercury is now. There is nothing you need do. You may feel into it via emotions rather than physically. Where to now?

The cards answer. With intention, the Knight of Pentacles. With devotion, the Eight of Pentacles. With the Divine, The Magician.

We have a great distance to travel to get where we want to go. The Knight of Pentacles advises taking it slow and steady. One step feeds to the next. Let the wind carry your prayers forward.

We are devoted to the result we want to see. We practice our course, over and over. The Eight of Pentacles is building something. Even as you are building, this card advises the present moment and to enjoy the fruits of your labour.

The Magician. Mercury. Hermes. As above, so below. The Magician alchemizes the energy of the elements, the stars, and the tools within. The Magician creates a great channel inside and then expands as within, so without.

Where we go, we may not know exactly. But we go nonetheless. Something to reach for, a heart full of hope. Trust that the way will unfold as we go. ✨
