Taurus Season

Feeling Mentally Overbooked? Gemini Season Says That’s the Point—Here’s Why

The Sun enters Gemini and suddenly everything feels like it’s moving in stereo. Welcome to Gemini Season—the time of year when life stops being a simple headline and turns into a choose-your-own-adventure novel written in real time. And right at the center of the action? The myth of Castor and Pollux—the heavenly twins who put the “both/and” into a world that desperately wants “either/or.”

These brothers weren’t just matching zodiac mascots; they were a cosmic paradox. Born to the same mother, Leda, Castor was mortal (sired by a mere man), and Pollux was immortal (fathered by Zeus, naturally). One could die; the other could not. So what happens when fate inevitably pulls the plug on Castor? Pollux doesn’t take it well. He offers to split his immortality with his brother. Zeus, apparently feeling generous that day, agrees—and the twins become the Gemini constellation, taking turns between Olympus and the Underworld.

It’s mythology’s version of a timeshare.

When the Shadow Fights Back: Full Moon in Scorpio Opposing Uranus Explained

If you find yourself acting a little out of character under this Full Moon in Scorpio, congratulations—you’re right on track. This lunation isn’t here to sprinkle moonbeams or remind you to journal in a candlelit bubble bath. No, Scorpio doesn’t do gentle. Scorpio does raw, real, and sometimes just plain rude. Add an opposition to Uranus in Taurus, and we’re not just pulling skeletons out of the closet—we’re launching them into the middle of dinner and asking them to pass the salt.

To understand what’s happening under this full-bodied, no-mercy moon, we need to take a stroll through one of the most iconic shadow tales ever written: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Because what better way to explore the Scorpio Full Moon than with a man who tried to separate his darkness, only to become consumed by it?

Words Are Weapons. This Week, You Better Know How to Use Them

Weekly Horoscope: May 5–11, 2025
Theme: Talk Smart, Think Deep — When Mercury Gets Loud Before It Gets Real
By Storm Cestavani (not the net thief known as MoonlightMG. See PSA below)

This week, Mercury is the star of the show—and not the subtle, whisper-in-your-ear Mercury. No, this is boombox-on-your-shoulder, debate-me-bro Mercury, complete with a final mic drop in Taurus. Conversations will pop off, secrets might slip, and that internal monologue? It’s now a full-blown keynote presentation. But don’t worry—we’ll also have some steady ground to land on by the weekend, thanks to a little Earth-sign wisdom.

This week is your backstage pass to manage your mindset, speak truth to power (especially your own), and declutter the hot mess express that lives rent-free in your head. Let’s break it down day by day.

Your Brain on Mercury in Taurus: Plant It, Grow It, Speak It When It’s Ripe

When Mercury enters Taurus, it’s like swapping your triple-shot espresso for a slow-simmering pot of coffee — rich, hearty, and best savored slowly. And, all of you know how much I love coffee! Forget the hustle of rapid-fire thoughts and lightning-speed decisions; Mercury in Taurus is here to teach us that the best ideas are the ones we plant, water, and watch grow.

And to really dig into this earthy shift, we’re pulling out a myth that gets little mention, but fits like a well-worn pair of boots: Demeter and Triptolemus.

1984 Called—Pluto Retrograde Is the Plot Twist You Didn’t See Coming

Let’s get something straight: Pluto retrograde in Aquarius is not your average astrological deep dive. This isn’t about gazing at the stars with a hot cup of chai and a candle called “Rebirth and Rainbows.” This is more like the universe handing you George Orwell’s 1984, smacking you on the back of the head with it, and saying, “Read it again, but this time, pay attention to the part where you betray yourself and still end up loving Big Brother.”

Welcome to the psychological Hunger Games of 2025, starring you, your shadow, and a revolutionary ideal that may or may not be gaslighting you.

Emotions Run Wild, Venus Gets Bold, and Pluto Pulls the Plug: Your No-Nonsense Weekly Horoscope (April 28–May 4)

Welcome to the week where your feelings have a flair for drama, your love life takes a wild swing, and your inner rebel gets a microphone. This is not a calm week—and thank the gods for that, because it’s about time we shook off the emotional beige and embraced the full technicolor range of what-the-hell-just-happened moods.

The spotlight’s on the Moon, who’s walking through the zodiac like a caffeinated therapist with no filter. Meanwhile, Venus struts into Aries, ready to burn the rulebook, and Pluto retrogrades in Aquarius, asking us if we even know what we believe in anymore—or if we’re just retweeting other people’s thoughts. (Ouch, right?)

So grab your metaphorical seatbelt, and maybe an actual snack. Let’s break this down, day by day, so you don’t emotionally whiplash yourself straight into a spiral.
