Mercury, the planet of communication, goes into trickster mode when he reverses course on May 28, 2021, at 6:34 PM EST.
So, I’ll give you a chance to scream and mutter before I give you the “Astro-Tea.”
Now that we have had a momentary fit, and the banshees have gone to wail elsewhere, let’s dig in…
[Read more…] about Mercury Retrograde in Gemini – May 29, 2021 – June 22, 2021
Lights, camera, action! Guess what? It’s eclipse season, and the following month is a blockbuster-filled cosmic event that will surely keep you on the edge of your seat. So, get your popcorn ready the show begins on May 26th at 7:14 AM EDT.
On Wednesday, the blood moon lunar eclipse (a fancy power-packed Full Moon) occurs at 5 degrees of Sagittarius. For those of you with planets in Gemini or Sagittarius, this eclipse may have a more substantial impact, so stay on your toes!
Now, whenever I think about the sign of Sagittarius, I think of epic action films such as Raiders of the Lost Ark or Lara Croft. It’s big, bold, and filled with adventure and intrigue. Sagittarius is grand theater and reflects our quest for meaning that is greater than the lives that we live in the real world. It’s the epic superhero motif complete with ‘justice’ that Sagittarius loves. After all, superheroes need a villain they can defeat to make things right in the world.
Being a fire sign, Sagittarius wants to inspire, think outside the box, and provide us with the potentials and possibilities of a better tomorrow. More simply, the energy of Sagittarius is about having faith in something good to believe in once again.
But what about this eclipse business?

This week’s astrology forecast packs a massive wallop, so get ready; it’s going to be a rollercoaster of a ride that begins on Wednesday and continues through the rest of the week.
We have three hot spots to focus on this week. I will give the Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius its own post so watch for that to drop early in the week. But we also have Venus forming a tense square to Neptune and Mercury retrograde in Gemini on Saturday.
[Read more…] about Astrology Forecast and Horoscopes for the Week of May 24, 2021 – May 30, 2021
This week’s astrology forecast has the Sun moving into airy Gemini. Gemini is the season of the social butterfly, so our focus shifts from the physical world of money, individual values, and resources to social activities, ideas, and mingling with others. While the Sun is in the sign of the twins, expect insightful conversations, the sharing of ideas and concepts, and the need to learn new things that keep the mind stimulated and refreshed. Since Gemini has to do with the mind, the thing to be cautious of is mental constructs that may limit and curtail personal growth. Stay focused on the positive and the future, rather than ruminating on the past.
In other astrological news, Saturn turns retrograde in Aquarius. Saturn is the planet of responsibility and discipline. He reflects what we do when we are ‘adulting’ — you know, that minor issue of taking care of business. Saturn also reflects the planetary parental overlord that governs us, teaches us lessons, and rewards us for a job well done.
In astrology, when a planet is retrograde, it weakens the planets ability to function efficiently. In transformational astrology, retrograde planets operate on the inner level rather than experienced in the outer world. So, essentially, Saturn turning retrograde reflects a four-and-a-half-month period where we need to look at our lives and discover what needs structure and discipline. Often this is painfully obvious, because ‘daddy’ Saturn doesn’t step in and restrict us as usual, but instead lets us fall on our face so that we can discover ways in which we can learn lessons the hard way. Furthermore, it’s probably best when problems occur we handle them when they arise, because they become progressively more challenging if we ignore them.
Finally, on Saturday, Mercury forms a challenging square to Neptune in Pisces. Mercury square Neptune is a highly confusing aspect. You need to be cautious of what you say, and be as clear and concise as possible. If an opportunity seems too good to be true, then it probably is. Check and recheck everything before making a firm decision.
Ordinarily, Mercury square Neptune only affects us for a few days, but with Mercury’s retrograde motion that begins next week, this aspect will be in orb for a while. Proceed with caution!
Now, on with the weekly horoscopes…
Sign Breakdowns:
This week, the Sun, Mercury, and Venus move through your solar 3rd house, giving you plenty to talk about and a need to share ideas and information with others. Opportunities to learn something new that helps you achieve your goals may occur midweek. However, this weekend pay close attention to what people say; someone may not be telling the truth.
This week, the Sun moves into your solar second house, and you couldn’t be happier because your mind will be on your favorite subject – money! Conversations about improving your financial standing may occur midweek when Venus trines Saturn in your solar 10th house. However, avoid signing contracts or becoming overly obligated until after Mercury turns direct in the middle of June.
At long last, it’s your season and time to shine, so spread those social butterfly wings and fly. This week, conversations with others will help you understand yourself on a deeper level. Also, new opportunities may be presented towards the end of the week that help you level up. Stay focused on your goals!
Conserve your energy this week because the Sun is moving into your solar 12th house, leaving you feeling burnt out and exhausted. Try to get as much rest as possible to recharge your batteries, so you have an ample amount of energy to use when needed. Resolution of unresolved financial matters may need to be your focus at the end of the week before they become too stressful to manage.
The week begins with a focus on work-related matters. Opportunities to take your career to the next level will come through friends and associates that see your true potential. Avoid getting involved with other people’s financial issues because their situation may not be as bad as they portray it to be. You may need to say no when pressured.
People that do not understand your grand vision may question your motives, especially in career-related matters. The good news is that despite the Negative Nancy’s barking at your workplace, positive financial news will arrive midweek that puts your self-doubts to rest. There may be a wolf in sheep’s clothing around you; try to root out the culprit as quickly as possible.
This week begins with a beneficial aspect between the Sun and Pluto that helps you release the emotional traumas you have experienced in your life. Releasing the past allows you to concentrate your efforts on expanding your belief system and acquiring a more positive outlook on life. Later this week, your creative talents may prove lucrative, so take advantage of opportunities while the irons are hot.
This week begins a month-long process of inner change and transformation as the Sun moves into your solar 8th house. Difficulties in relationships have a better than average chance of being resolved, because you and your partner have enough emotional feelings for one another to face the underlying issues. Single Scorpios, be careful of investing heavily in people who are only in your life for a season.
You may need to escape the real world this week and focus on what makes you happy and brings you joy. Relationships will be a conduit that inspires new ideas that get your creative juices flowing once again. Towards the end of the week, avoid signing contracts or legal documents with Mercury in your 7th house, squaring deceptive Neptune.
Although you may want to focus on issues that matter to you, daily annoyances and problematic people may threaten to knock you off your game. Projects you have invested in may not work out as expected, leaving you feeling emotionally depleted. Since the Sun is now moving through your solar 6th house, take extra care of your body and make choices that benefit your well-being.
This week, the Sun begins its month-long trek through your solar 5th house, bringing out your need to connect with others and have some fun. It’s a great time to take a step back from the daily grind and take some me-time to become conscious of your current goals and what you are currently seeking in life. However, try to avoid overspending, because your decision-making might not be the best with Mercury squaring Neptune in your financial second house.
This week, the Sun moves through your solar 4th house, putting family matters in the proverbial hot seat. Issues from the past may resurface that need resolution once and for all. Getting in touch with your deeper feelings about life will positively impact your personal growth and career matters. This coming weekend, avoid shady people.
See you next week!
This week, the bulk of the astrology forecast occurs over a three-day window beginning on Tuesday and ending on Thursday. The two biggest features are Jupiter moving out of Aquarius and into his sign of Pisces and a New Moon in Taurus, the sign of the bull.
Let’s start with the big kahuna, Jupiter in Pisces…
This week Jupiter says goodbye (at least temporarily) to the sign of Aquarius and movies into Pisces until July 28th when he will return to the sign of the water bearer.
Pisces is the sign associated with collective dreams, but what does that even mean?
Well, we all have dreams and not just when we go to sleep. We have visions of how we would like our lives to be. WE have dreams about a perfect world and a perfect society. Some of us even have dreams of a perfect cheesecake – mine is raspberry flavored. But there are dreams that are bigger than individual dreams, they are the collective visions and aspirations of nations, groups, generations (current, previous, and those no longer with us), and even political parties. All dreams and collective visions are governed by the sign of Pisces.
Jupiter is the planet of expansion and when he dives into the deep waters of Pisces, those collective dreams of a perfect world will become a predominant theme over the next year. Carl Jung (one of the pioneers of modern psychology) believed that everyone’s dreams and aspirations add to the whole, and it is this energy that is at the deepest core of Pisces, and the actions we take as individuals decide whether those dreams solidify into tangible realities. So, it’s a great time to focus on our higher aspirations, what we would like to see happen in our lives and in the world in the future. According to the kabbalists, the most powerful force in the universe is unity (another lovely Piscean word) but to effectively create change, we all need to do our part to uplift and inspire a better tomorrow by beginning to dream — and DREAM BIG!
The New Moon this month lands in the sign of Taurus. Taurus is about prosperity, money, and self-worth. So, getting control over your finances, planting seeds for financial stability, and improving your self-image are constructive ways to work with this month’s New Moon, especially if you do intention or magical work
This month the New Moon makes only favorable aspects to Neptune and Pluto. The Moon’s sextile to Neptune softens Taurus’s outer shell and provides opportunities to connect on a deeper level in relationships, and it allows you to become more sensitive to the emotional needs of others. Whereas the trine to Pluto helps you stand in your own power and gives you the moxie to make changes that are necessary. Overall, this is a gentle New Moon, and it may be a bit of cosmic relief before eclipse season begins at the end of the month.

Will Caitlyn Jenner Become the Governor of California?
E! Online announced earlier this year, that the current season of ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians,’ would be the Kardashian/Jenner clan’s last season after 20 seasons and 13 years on the air.
Of course, everyone began speculating what the next move for the infamous clan would be? More makeup and skincare products? Future shows on another network? Or would the family simply fade from public view?
Well for Caitlyn Jenner, leaving the media spotlight is the last thing that she plans to do. She announced on April 23, 2021, that she would run to replace Governor Gavin Newsom of California if a recall of the current governor proceeds.
