Moving from the depths of Pisces to the spark of Aries can be confusing, like being exhausted and exhilarated at the same time. With two planets (the Sun and Venus) freshly moved into fiery Aries, we feel the urge to push forward into the new with initiatory zeal. While the potential for emergence feels exciting, the path forward may not be entirely clear. Mercury, the planet that rules our thinking, is still lost in a Piscean fog. There will be frustrations and frayed tempers over unclear communication and misunderstandings. We are cautioned to be mindful of our words all week; don't let impatience overtake you! On the Full Moon in Libra this coming Sunday, relationships are drawn into the spotlight, showing us that we can create healthy boundaries without running roughshod. There are opportunities for developing autonomy and building toward a better future, but we need to be aware of how we are treating others and maintain flexibility as the path unfolds.

We are in the last bits of the balsamic period for the entire year. Before we move into the invigorating energy of rebirth and springtime, take a final swim in the watery depths of Pisces. This is an opportunity to shed calcified and imposed identities we have been carrying. This week we can release the weight of the past and the parts of ourselves we don't wish to carry forward with forgiveness and compassion. The renewed authenticity you find in the space of letting go is the seed you will plant and nurture throughout the coming year. This is a chance to reinvent and reinvest in ourselves. It's a time of extraordinary sensitivity and raw potential as we sit poised between form and formlessness. We are bridging the past and the future. Transitions are never easy, so be gentle with yourself and everyone around you. Next week we hit the ground running - be sure you are rested and ready.

The earlier part of the week is bound to be more productive. A multiplicity of ideas and options may have you doing things twice (or more) as you continue to receive insight that informs your decision making process. As the New Moon moves into position in Pisces mid-week, it will join the Sun, Venus and Neptune. At this time we are encouraged to participate in the radical act of nonproductivity. View this as an opportunity to rest and be still, checking in with your intuition. Emotional and intuitive sensitivities will be high. Allow yourself to feel into situations and investigate with your gut. Listen to what your feelings are telling you. The skies are calling us to surrender to the flow in order to broaden our horizons. The planets are providing us with ample fruit to dream into the next phases of our lives. The best way to work with these energies is to let go of the edges of things, remembering that rest and relaxation are part of the process. Embrace the dreamtime to vision into the future.

Working with an exalted Venus in Pisces offers the grace to find workarounds, forgiveness and the beauty in embracing life as it is. A sense of ease and flow returns. There is peace and acceptance in seeing things as they are, instead of how we wanted them to be. As we look to the recent past, we are able to see where we needed to reconfigure and adjust our perceptions - and yes, even identify where we may have been wrong. Accepting and admitting former errors allows us to advance unfettered. Ideas for successful movement forward are available in abundance. Adaptability and patience are the watchwords as we adjust to this gentle course correction. This week has the potential to reorient our lives to true north, helping us get back on the path to a brighter future.

This is a time of emotional decompression. We can slow down and pause to honor the intensity of all that has passed in recent months. With so much analysis, deconstruction, dialogue and mental focus on the nature of our situation, we may have left our feeling bodies by the wayside. This week we can put our thinking selves on the shelf for a moment and ease into the peaceful sanctuary of movement or music, creativity and art. In the chaos of recent times have you forgotten the beauty that surrounds you? Can you surrender to your feelings without judgment? The Full Moon offers us an opportunity to get clear around how we can empower ourselves through this vulnerable time. Remember that art is a therapeutic experience, more about process than product. We can use it this week to merge feelings with thought, leading us to deeper wisdom and more compassionate understanding.

    Implementing Change: Episode 26 - Astrological Events of Feb 15 - 22 2021 This week we are experiencing part one of a three part story as Uranus squares Saturn. Resistance to and from outdated societal structures is an ongoing theme, as we attempt to make changes to the world we live in. Trying to make sense of things through clear thought or communication will be challenging this week while Mercury comes to a halt in the sky, highlighting confusion about our place in society. It will be worthwhile to focus on self-love, developing trust in the beauty of our own unique contributions. We can embrace what makes us different as the gift we offer in service to the collective. Individual voices will join together and be raised mid-week, speaking out against injustice. If resistance is met as unexpected changes arise, we are encouraged to stay flexible. Things will be brought to the surface this week. Consider what arises as an opportunity to heal the deep internal wounds that prevent us from bringing our own bright light to the groups we participate in.

    Reviewing Belief Systems: Episode 25 - Astrological Events of Feb 8 - 15 2021 The past month has been an incubator for powerful conversations brought to the fore from the rollercoaster of 2020. This week offers us opportunities to clarify our minds around these topics. Some perspectives are up for review as we discover where we have been too inflexible in our thinking. Deep internal shifts around ideology and belief systems will be taking place. With the balsamic phase of the Moon, we can distill what we want to carry forward and release the rigid behaviors that have been blocking our progress. Mercury is still retrograde, allowing us time to reconsider our opinions. Bear witness to conversations taking place on a greater scale and within your own mind. Is there a place where you are being encouraged to embrace broader perspectives by the communities you participate in? There will be moments of illumination as our limiting thought patterns are revealed. After a bit of realignment, optimism and exuberance come shining through! We are cautioned against going overboard in excitement to dismantle the old while building the new. Maintaining mental and emotional balance will ensure that we are fully able to benefit from clarity of vision Aquarius has on offer.

    Reconfiguring Relationships: Episode 24 - Astrological Events of Feb 1 - 8 2021 This week brings us into deep introspection and reflection around Venusian issues: self-love, relationships, inner balance, and our investments. We are offered opportunities to improve our communication and find new ways of partnering. There's plenty up for review. It's a chance to take a long hard look at some of our more intense emotions. Where are embedded thought patterns and protective behaviors preventing us from authenticity and intimacy? After a tough but fruitful conversation with ourselves, we can revamp the ways we think of ourselves and the way we work with others. The long distance Aquarian perspective (courtesy of a five planet stellium) provides a touch of emotional distance to help us regain a sense of clarity after some miscommunication. We are called to reforge our relationships, allowing for greater participation in community, despite our seeming isolation.

    Focusing on Human Family: Episode 23 - Astrological Events of Jan 24 - 30 2021 We have two big events in the sky week: a Full Moon in Leo and Mercury turning retrograde in Aquarius. The spotlight centers on the part we play as individuals within the society, community and our friendships. Unconscious awareness, beliefs and dreams will be making their way to the surface in our relationships. This includes our participation in group dynamics through the digital medium of the internet which, for many of us these days, serves as our primary means of communication. Disagreements and misinterpretation may surface. If things take an unexpected or disruptive turn, be open to the opportunity for clarification. Dig deep and own your limitations and fears - with the nature of a full moon our tendency may be to project. This week we are offered the capacity to rise above chaotic emotional response with a greater understanding of how we give and receive love. We can release subconscious patterns of defensiveness and restrictive self-preservation to embrace something greater and deeper, creating a sounder level of trust and belonging within our families of choice. Recognize what is truly worth fighting for and recalibrate your perceptions. Allow yourself to fearlessly lean into the higher octave of love.

Known for its surprising and disruptive nature, Uranus ushers in unexpected events. There is strong potential for explosive reactivity and volatility. Our nervous systems may be hyper-stimulated. The energy will feel electrical and enervating, so much so that we should be mindful of guarding our physical and emotional bodies from excess stimulation. There is the possibility of “getting carried away”. We are encouraged to somaticize emotions and allow our feelings to move through our bodies, as Uranian events that seem beyond our control unfold. Watch for impatience, anxiety, restlessness and fight or flight feelings. We can liberate excess mental energy by physically channeling it into tangible projects and creativity. On the precipice of a huge historic turning point, the changes we can make in our own lives will add to a sense of groundedness and security within the greater whole. As we hold space with our hopes for the future, staying present in the moment is key.

We are prompted to find security and nourishment with those around us and in our immediate environment as shock waves continue to reverberate from the world stage. With the sky so full of disruptive energies, cultivating practices that leave us grounded yet flexible will help us hold steady as we experience more tumultuous change on a collective level. The New Moon in Capricorn mid-week provides us with the opportunity to set intentions and firmly root them into our lives. We can fortify these intentions by fully embracing all we have endured over the past year, in recognition of our own resiliency. Acknowledging our own strength and seeking ways to embody stabilization will assist us in remaining tenaciously rooted while we weather the winds of change.

    Dynamic Movement Toward Our True Values: Episode 20 - Astrological Events of Jan 3 - 9 2021 The week begins with an opportunity to make progress with detailed planning - as a seed moment for the coming year. With three personal planets switching signs this week, the changing energies will be palpable. These transitions may not feel entirely gentle as we shift to a heightened focus on security and stability. Similar to landing in a plane after cruising at high speeds, we are called to adjust to a slower, more steady pace. We are offered practicality in pursuit of goals, and can utilize tenacity and perseverance in creating new paths toward what we truly value.

    Cautious Strategic Planning: Episode 19 - Astrological Events of Dec 27 2020 - Jan 2 2021 The sky is relatively calm this week. Our primary focus will be illuminated by the Full Moon in Cancer. This full moon is a great chance for emotional release and self-nurturing, providing a balm for the pain of the last year and an assist in letting go. We are offered a preview of how we will be required to shift and pivot with flexibility in the coming year. Take note and incorporate these insights into your intentions for the immediate and long term future. This is a week of gentle release and subtle preparation.

Some of the same old stories will be springing up again, but now they're playing out in a different atmosphere. One that is primed for change. It is a time of transition. Our thinking may become more serious and practical as we turn to a more forward focused and strategic mindset as we consider reformatting our long term plans. The sky is offering us a great opportunity for enduring change. We can seize what's on offer by finally and honestly releasing those things that are congesting our environment and mindscape. Old habits and thought patterns can truly be banished to the past. Midweek, through an eruption of emotion, our attention may be drawn to something that needs letting go. Watch responses and reactions for cues. On the Winter Solstice, we experience the darkest day of the Northern Hemisphere - after this the light begins to grow as the days will lengthen. At this time of new beginnings we can take a beat to rest while we adjust and recalibrate our internal structures. With so much shifting energetically, it may take a moment for us to regain our bearings, but commitments made to a more promising future can be fruitfully seeded now. It's the perfect time to clear space for the new and set intentions for the coming years.

    Toward a Paradigm Shift: Episode 17 - Astrological Events of December 12 - 19 2020 It's a pivotal time of planting seeds for new beginnings, short-term and long-term. We are offered an opportunity for release on many levels. The focus of this energy is on thought, communications, perceptions. In all honesty, what old beliefs and behaviors need to be cleared away to make space for the new? If something seems to be crumbling, some foundation has shifted, take note. Our attention has been drawn to situations and systems that are no longer working and need to be reformatted or changed to sustain us for the future. Eclipses are times of revelation and exposure. Pay attention to what new information comes to light - it will be a helpful aid in determining how we want to move forward.

Things may be falling away from our lives in rapid succession, clearing the path and creating space for new structures yet to come. It is a time of reassessment that may come with rewards or sudden changes. Strategizing and planning for the future is highly supported this week. We are encouraged to take a long view and shift to a broader perspective looking forward. Hope is being reborn as we ready ourselves to thankfully put 2020 in the rearview mirror. What things would you like to release as so many cycles come to a close? What needs to be disengaged to clear space for the new?

    Sudden Subtle Revelations: Episode 15: Astrological Events of November 29 - December 5 2020 The big news in the sky this week is a lunar eclipse early Monday morning combined with the energy of Neptune changing directions. This brings in a heightened sensitivity to emotions that could show up as brain foggy, emotional or escapist. Work with Neptune by listening to music, watching films, finding a creative outlet for the imagination. Meditation, prayer and mantra are a solid way to weather the unexpected revelations that come during eclipse season. Remember too that full moons are times of illumination. Combined with the nature of the eclipse, this could reveal things that you were not able to see before. Especially on an intuitive level. What is brought to light may be useful in the weeks to come - wait for those revelations instead of making big decisions or taking immediate action. There's plenty of information yet to be unveiled throughout the coming month. Lunar eclipses are known as a time of great internal intensity, so we need to be mindful of the temptation to participate in dialogues that are not nurturing. Many of us may be fixed in our attitudes during this time, but there can be a lack of clarity in the expression of those ideas. Thankfully, we may find we are lacking sufficient energy to engage in unfruitful exchanges. Applying your mind to foreign ideas, new concepts, exploring other cultures, reaching out to adventure in new terrain - both literally and figuratively - is going to brighten our outlook by the end of the week. Seeking beyond our own regular sources of influence and expanding our horizons will be highly beneficial, bringing an uplift and an optimistic boost for a warm and light hearted weekend.

    Adjusting Our Perspectives: Episode 14 - Astrological Events of November 22 - 28 2020 It's Sagittarius Season! Our regularly scheduled exuberance leading into Holiday Season has been pared back this year since Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius, is in a compromised state. What we might be feeling instead is a bit of dreaminess or fogginess. The best way to work with this energy is through imaginary exploration. It's a great time to ease down on things that involve critical analysis and ride the waves of the intuitive and ethereal. We are better served picking up a paintbrush or diving into a novel, something that involves unleashing the creative imagination. Is there something you want to study, make or create? Some hope that you have for the future? Think about what you might want to learn and experience to get there. Allow yourself to dream big. This week is also a good time to make note of behavior in relationships and how you're communicating with others. There's important information being reflected back to you. This involves paying attention to what you say and how you're voicing your beliefs. It's a perfect time for revelations to slip out. You might surprise yourself and everyone else. There are things being revealed about your own self worth and value in partnerships. Keep in mind that your excitement to move forward and speak your truth might involve a bit of projection. It's time to listen with your heart. Have you done the healing that you need to do or are you placing that responsibility on someone or something else? Things may not be entirely clear this week. Our “certain truths” may feel a bit malleable, so double check your sources and feelings. If you encounter discomfort or discover some blockage, take this as a reminder of the work that still needs to be done. Pull back and see if you can reassess these situations with a broader birdseye view. Big picture perspectives are your friend this week. A more visionary approach will support you in adjusting your values and mindset as we seek to recalibrate in these constantly shifting times.

    We are building up our vitality again. With an infusion of energy, we begin to move forward and get our passion and motivation back. Now we can take another shot at some of those things we haven't had much energy to do. It's as if we can get back to ourselves and recognize ourselves again. But it's not the same old you. Notice how you've changed. You've recently transformed. For all we've been through, we have leveled up from doing some of the deep internal work essential for transformation. As we ascend through the gates of the underworld on our way back home, we reclaim the power and optimism we may have been unable to access during these past few months. You'll be able to feel it in your body, the “body” of the people will express it too. The call of the week is to bring a dose of reality to our optimism. Thoughtful analysis will be surprisingly fruitful. There's an overarching narrative of healing this week, so whatever challenges you encounter will serve to fortify your own personal growth. By then end of the week there could be a nice feeling of closure as we assimilate our experiences and understand just how much the recent months have changed us. Moods may fluctuate as we wade through our own personal microcosms, sorting through and making sense of the events of the year. This is productive for our emotional and psychological growth. While there is no getting away from the work in front of us, insightful connections encountered this week will leave us plenty of room for synthesis and recapitulation. While you enjoy this resurgence of energy, take the time to comfort your heart - we've been through a lot. Raise your eyes to take note of all the beauty around you.

This will give us plenty of time to process the events of the past week and make internal adjustments to the myriad of changes that are happening in the world. The sky holds supportive aspects this week which will provide hope and optimism as we encounter some jarring realities and a bit of disillusionment. We have not quite made it to the finish line. Some of us need to defrost from the numbing we've created to survive the collective trauma we've been exposed to. Rest if you need to. It's necessary for healing. We are in a phase of recovery - building new strength in the midst of a transformative process. A celestial valve release is opened this week and it may feel a bit destabilizing as some raw martial energy unfurls. Slowly but surely we will begin to find our vitality and courage rejuvenated. A poetic sense of resilience emerges as we reclaim our energy reserves, building opportunity for change and hope for a new normal. Pathways to rebuild the structures of our lives are on offer with this coming New Moon; then we can finally move forward with clear eyes. Take your time.

    We are in the midst of a transformative process, and our emotional landscape is shifting rapidly. It will help to take the long view. Keep your eyes on the horizon as we ride a rollercoaster of uncertainty. We are resilient, strong, and capable of growing beyond the past experiences. We can begin to bring closure to old stories and shine our lanterns on a new path to the future, a different way of being. Letting go of the past may bring grief, as we mourn the loss of our previous selves. It's an emotionally confusing time, so keep an extra eye on self care and guard your mental wellness. Give yourself time for emotional release. Reach out to loved ones; care for those who might be feeling isolated or alone, including yourself. Unplug and create new pathways to connect to spirit. Find new ways to move forward with mindful focus on your emotional body and mental health. Reversals and surprises are part of the terrain this week, so practice resilience and patience when delays come along. This is not the time to be insistent or stuck on immediate results. Progress will be slow. Patience is key. Believe in yourself and speak to yourself with encouragement and love as you begin to lift former self-imposed limitations.

    A sense of energetic vitality will be palpable this week as our focus lifts from internal depths to dialogue with others. Our eyes will be drawn to value systems, the notions of fairness and justice, and the behaviour of other people in our lives and society. Is it our job to call them out? Or will we attempt to keep the peace at any cost? While intimate relationships may sweeten, people may show up from your past; keep an eye out for projection. What really did happen way back when? What is yours and what is theirs might be hard to distinguish since we're coming from such an emotion filled space. It's a good time to watch your head in every sense of the phrase as our initial impulses may not serve our best interests in the long run. Make your choices consciously.

    Things begin to shift this week. Though not easy, this is a psychologically fertile time. Psychological assimilation of everything we have been through this year has left us feeling a little exhausted, but this week we begin to test, and rely on, our new strength. We have been challenged this year, we have grown, and we have endured. Growing pains have been our constant companion. The adjustments we've made to difficulties we've encountered can carry us a long way now, if we pay attention to the lessons. As Mercury leads us back into the deep dark of Scorpio, we find our most vulnerable places exposed, and we are now able to work with the material set before us. We may have a few surprises coming, but Venus is on duty all week, doing her best to support our inner harmony and sweeten our lives a little. The desire to find harmony within ourselves combines with motivation for permanent change. We can find silver linings now and begin to see the beauty around us once again. Connections deepen. Relationships deepen. Our sense of self deepens too, as we finally understand the connections between our past experiences and our present selves. Despite the chaos and confusion, we can finally feel our feet beneath us, finding our centers once again.

Use your self-care toolkits to assist the planets this week. The planets continue to engage in a series of stressful aspects. We will surely feel it in our personal lives and within our minds and bodies. We have been exposed to surprising information over the past few weeks, it's time to reflect. You will feel the pull of two poles and be drawn to find balance between them. If you find yourself feeling exhausted or called to rest, allow yourself the time you need. Pushing forward is what we are culturally conditioned to do, but this week the planets are calling us to gently nurture ourselves. As confusions in communications abound, we might be tempted to take ego based defense where none is needed. Patiently practice techniques to alleviate miscommunications. Be mindful of how you talk to yourself and others. As the world shifts around us, we are called to find our center of gravity within.

A conversation with a friend will lend support, even though it may feel uncomfortable going that deep. Getting feedback can help for an honest assessment.

    Astrological Events of September 20 - 26 2020 Mercury on Our Minds: Seek Balance Within This week Bronwyn and Rebecca focus on Mercury the Messenger and the Sensitive Moon, both traversing through some difficult territory. We struggle to maintain balance as revelations and conflicts in communication abound. A tough week, in all frankness. It's best to take a beat and sort through our thoughts and ideas before we react.
