The Capricorn Buck Moon rises with quiet fire and a whole lot of truth. She invites us to clear the clutter—physical, emotional, energetic—and come back to what’s real. This isn’t about proving your strength. It’s about honoring it. Quietly. Steadily. Deeply.
This is the moment to reset your foundation. To stop shrinking, stop spinning, and ask: What am I actually building? And is it aligned with the life I say I want? Whether you’re journaling, clearing space, having the conversation, or dancing it out—this full moon supports the step that honors both your vision and your nervous system.
I am divinely guided to bring clarity to what I’m carrying, choose what’s real, and rise with a little more grace (and maybe a hair toss). I welcome the Capricorn Buck Moon—a moon of structure with soul, strength with softness. With truth in my heart, I release what’s no longer mine and rise into the essence of who I came here to be.

The Strawberry Full Moon in Sagittarius rises tonight—bold, bright, and absolutely not here for your excuses. With fiery Mars and disruptive Eris in the mix, this moon is stirring up truth, tension, and the undeniable urge to break free from what’s no longer aligned. If things feel a little hot and messy (emotionally, energetically, or otherwise), don’t panic—it’s not falling apart, it’s cracking open. This moon is here to realign you with your purpose, not coddle your comfort zone.
Chiron, the wounded healer, is also holding space in this mix, inviting a deeper layer of healing—especially around self-worth, old patterns, and emotional baggage. What’s surfacing now is sacred. Let it rise. Let it teach you. Sagittarius energy wants growth, not perfection. It’s time to get real, get clear, and aim that metaphorical arrow higher than ever before.
Tonight is your chance to speak your truth, honor what’s shifting, and move forward with a wild heart and a free soul. Release what’s heavy. Say yes to what’s calling. And remember, you’re not here to play small. You are divinely guided—and this moon is a cosmic invitation to rise.

Chemical vs. Physical Sunscreen: Your Daily Glow Armor
No gatekeeping here—just real SPF truths for radiant, protected skin, especially as we head into this sunny Memorial Day weekend.
Chemical sunscreen sinks in + absorbs UV like a sponge. Lightweight and invisible, but not always BFFs with sensitive or freshly treated skin.
(Think: avobenzone, octinoxate, oxybenzone.)
Physical (mineral) sunscreen sits on top + reflects rays away like a mirror. Calmer, cleaner, kinder—especially after facials or peels.
(Think: zinc oxide, titanium dioxide.)
SPF myth-busting moment:
SPF 30 blocks about 97% of UVB rays.
SPF 45? 98%.
SPF 100? Just more chemicals—not much more coverage.
And SPF is only as good as your reapplication game. Every 2 hours, loves—especially with all the sweating, swimming, and fun-in-the-sun that holiday weekends bring.
Pro tip: A fabulous wide-brimmed hat + mineral makeup with SPF 20 is your ultimate power combo. Shade, style, and extra sun defense—yes, please.
Glow smart, glow safe, and soak in the long weekend beauty.

Scorpio Flower Moon
The Scorpio Flower Moon invites you inward—to feel, to release, and to remember your power.
This Full Moon blooms in the depths, asking us to feel deeply, release honestly, and shed what no longer serves. Whether it’s old stories, people-pleasing patterns, or that emotionally draining “just checking in” text—it’s time to let. it. go.
Scorpio doesn’t do surface. She wants your soul.
This is emotional alchemy. Shadow integration. Radical (but loving) truth.
You don’t have to burn it all down to begin again. Sometimes transformation looks like setting a boundary with grace, choosing yourself in small ways, or finally saying, “Not this anymore.”
Expect awakenings. Expect clarity. Expect that wildly loving cosmic aunt energy who hugs you, feeds you, and then tells you the truth you’ve been avoiding. (With a wink and a glass of wine.)
This is your turning point.
Trust what’s falling away—and trust even more in what’s about to bloom.
I am divinely guided to release with grace and rise in beauty, balance, and truth—blossoming like the Flower Moon, and becoming all I’m meant to be.
