AstroAlert - Mercury Retrograde in Pisces
Today the planet of communication, timing & equipment, Mercury, starts it's reverse course in the sign of spirituality, subconscious & psychic ability, Pisces. I've been feeling it the past few days already in that I've had a hard time concentrating and saying what I mean. We may feel a bit cloudy as we have just been dunked underwater and have to get our bearings below sea level. The sign of the fishes hates raw, stark reality and has to blur the edges and soften the truth. This can be great in any creative and spiritual pursuits but can really screw with day to day operations in the mundane world. Pisces hates limitations and is not a fan of the word NO. This can cause us overindulgence so watch out not to do too much of anything, especially escapism. Back in the 80s, when I was working doing readings in the Quarter, I always knew when there was a Pisces transit cause the bars would still be busy on Sunday morning. Larger than life, this is a sign that likes more, more, more. Some good things that are possible now is to get in touch with your intuition as this is the sign that is the most psychic and Mercury is the bearer of messages. Keep a notepad handy and write down any insights you receive. And being that it's moving backwards, this is a great time to ask for answers to questions about things from the past. Old wounds will likely open and this energy can help point you in the direction of healing. The overarching theme I see with this transit is all the feelings it will bring up. There are some additional planetary energies driving us to release our old selves and step into our truths. One last note is that it is imperative that you thoroughly vet anything or anyone making you big promises. While I do believe in magic and possibility, Pisces, with it's enthusiasm, can oversell sometimes. If during these 3 weeks you think something is too good to be true, it likely is so do your due diligence and postpone any big purchases, decisions and commitments. Next week is the eclipse and I'll cover that in a few days. For now try to stay positive, aware and go with the flow.

AstroAlert - Mercury Retrograde in Pisces 2.26 till 3.20
Well here we go getting thrown into the deep end with Mercury the planet of communication backing on up in the sign of emotions, Pisces. I predict a bunch of healing can happen in these next few weeks especially if you are willing to let go and have a good cry. Life has been super heavy lately and most of us are feeling like we're having the crap beat out of us these days. Most folks are on edge and holding it together but the sign of Pisces is all about letting go. It isn't healthy to push our feelings down for too long and this Mercury Retrograde is all about letting the feelings flow. It can be scary to allow the feelings of discomfort to bubble to the surface but that's what is being asked of us at this time. Really take some time over these next 3 weeks and go over what has been stuck in your craw. I expect we'll have the usual shenanigans that Mercury Retrogrades entail...missed connections and communications, wonky timing and, of course, whacky tech stuff, but I feel this is all about allowing us to release anything that's weighing us down, especially if we are clinging to it past it's due date. We as astrologers can sound scary when we talk about this transit cause it really isn't a great time to launch anything new. Plenty of time to do that at the end of the month. For now just sit with how you're feeling and let s**t go.

AstroAlert - Sun in Pisces
The cosmic wheel turns again and brings us to the last sign in the zodiac, Pisces, the sign of the sea. Ruled by Neptune, this sign is extremely psychic and sensitive. They feel every feeling very deeply and connect with others with ease. Spiritual by nature, Pisces is always trying to figure out what this world is about and what is our purpose here. They are known for their visionary abilities and are optimistic by nature. One of Pisces favorite things is to sleep because they tend to have vivid and detailed dreams that can sometimes be prophetic. Generous with their time and resources, they give and give of themselves to others and need alone time to restore themselves or they can become cranky. I feel, because they are the end of the zodiac, that they have a little bit of all of the signs in them and they can be compatible with most people. The only thing to watch is excess. They can overdo something, for good or bad, and need to watch that tendency so it doesn't become addictive or destructive. You can often recognize a Pisces by their eyes. Usually large and expressive, you can get mesmerized when you fall under their gaze. Also Pisces women have an attraction factor that can't be beat and rarely are they spurned by the object of their desires. Perhaps it's their eyes or maybe the air of mystery they give off. Deep, free flowing and wise , you will always feel there is a lot going on beneath the stillness they portray and you're right, there is. When the Sun enters a sign it offers all of us the ability to tap into the energies they possess too. Two things I recommend focusing on this next month is your intuition and your ability to expand whatever you put your attentions to. Be intentional by asking the universe what you should be doing right now and listen to what insights you receive. Mercury will be retrograde soon in this sign and I'll write more as we come to that but remember to try to stay fluid this next month and you'll be fine.

AstroAlert - Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse/New Moon in Aquarius/Lunar New Year/Mardi Gras - Tuesday 2.17.26
It's almost here y'all. The day many of us astrologers have been looking forward to as a powerful time for a reset. While all New Moons are about new starts this one is also the start of Eclipse Season which represents endings. The beauty of this is that while endings can be tough, beginnings encourage optimism so we wont have time to ruminate over what needs to be left behind. This is happening in the sign of Aquarius which is all about the future. We also have the end of the Year of the Snake and the entrance into the Year of the Horse, another end and start. It's also Mardi Gras which is the end of a season of indulgence and then the beginning of Lent. To use this time effectively look into your life and see what needs to go before you can step into a new chapter. If you know your chart check to see if you have any signs in Aquarius and what house they are in cause that will give you a real clue where most of this energy will be swirling. Don't expect this to happen all at once. Eclipse themes play out for awhile. But remember that if something is being released from your experience, it will be replaced with something better as this is the way of things, especially now. More to come as we keep moving through this powerful timeline. Till then, be brave, be kind and be hopeful.

02/15/2026

Last few days of The Year of the Snake are asking us to release what's not for our highest good. This is a perfect time to do a little inventory on what has popped up for us this past year. Are there any recurring patterns of behavior you are seeing that are self destructive or self sabotaging? Are there relationships or situations that have outlived their usefulness? We've all got something cause we humans have a habit of holding onto things past their expiration date cause we don't like change. The end of the snake cycle gives us the necessary energy to shed what no longer serves us and break outworn cycles before this new cycle of equine energy gallops in to give us the opportunity to start fresh and unfettered.

AstroAlert - Saturn In Aries - Friday the 13th
Well that sounds pretty ominous, Saturn, the planet of hard work & discipline, moves into the sign of action & energy, Aries, on Friday the 13th. It is a BIG shift from where it had been in the dreamy sign of Pisces but all the fear based posting I've been seeing is a bit over the top. Sure Aries is the God of War and can be aggressive and impulsive. Saturn however plays a long game and will watch Aries hurl that energy around until it tuckers itself out and then will try to direct it to do the good things it's capable of. One of the tough parts of this transit is that Aries wants everything right now while Saturn makes you earn it over time. To see how this will play out for you is to find out where both Saturn and Aries are in your chart. For me it falls into my house of communication which means I'm going to be honing my message and how I relay that to the world around me. For the world around us collectively I feel we'll see some escalation in global aggressions but in the long run good old Saturn will restrict those impulses some. The big thing that I'm seeing with this is that we will all be chomping at the bit to make things happen. While Pisces energy is laid back, Aries is in your face so it'll feel like we had a jolt of caffeine that wakes us out of a long nap. Channel this to whatever area is tugging on you and know that solutions to long standing challenges are possible if you are willing to do the work. Coming up on 2/20 we have big Aries energy as both Saturn and Neptune sit down together in that sign to see how best to make necessary changes happen. I'll post more on that then but for now, just breath and don't panic.

Started today out being grateful and here I am with one of my favorite pals, the superstar host of Great Day Louisiana, Malik Mingo. We got to connect earlier about the exciting Lunar New Year coming up, The Year of the Fire Horse, and how it will be affecting all of the Eastern Zodiac signs. A little different than Western Astrology which goes by the month you are born, this goes by the year you are born. I was born in the Year of the Rat many moons ago lol. Tune in on Ash Wednesday morning to find out what is in store for the year you were born. I feel so fortunate to get to hang out with Malik and the whole GDL family and share about this auspicious year ahead. Tune in at 9am on Wednesday 2/18 for the whole segment and, as always, thanks so much for your support. 🤗

Got a lot to be thankful for and there were times I really wasn't feeling that way. After Katrina we New Orleanians were pretty beat up and I, like many others, was in a protracted funk. That's when I remembered a Louise Hay affirmation tape from the 80s where she told you to be grateful for everything. I got a journal and every morning I'd sit on my porch first thing and write a list of 21 things I was grateful for. Even though at that time it was hard some days to come up with stuff I stuck with it for a month. Then a month became 6 and then soon a year of being grateful. It was amazing the change it made within me and without. My attitude and life made a giant turn for the better. Now if ever I'm in a sad or scary place I do it again and it still helps. Today I remember everything on my list of 21 things and they are all still real for me. Give it a try if you're struggling and you'll see the shift too. Big hugs and bright blessings!

AstroAlert - Venus in Pisces
The planet of love, Venus, is slipping into the sign on the sea, Pisces, and everyone's feelings will flow fully thanks to this shift. Pisces is a very emotional sign and even when they are trying to hide their feelings, it's pretty impossible. Dreamy, visionary, spiritual and psychic, the sign of the fishes doesn't usually occupy themselves with the small stuff. Everything is big with them, like the ocean itself. Pisces women exude a natural beauty and both sexes have deep, soulful eyes that can cast a powerful spell. Venus is all about how we love and connect with the world around us and Pisces is all about living large. Folks should be feeling very generous this Valentine's and will be more apt to share those 3 magic words - I Love You. One thing to watch out for during the transit is the tendency to over do, over indulge and over commit. I mention this cause it's Mardi Gras time here in New Orleans and that is already prone to over doing things. Remember the old adage about Carnival, that it's a marathon and not a sprint. Pace yourself and be ready to call a Lyft home if you've partied too much or be a designated driver for others who have. Other than that, get ready to live large and out loud for a while. Next up will be Venus in Aries and that's a whole different vibe. For now dive in and have fun and keep some tissues handy. Pay attention to your intuition too, especially around relationships and if something feels too good to be true, it probably is.
