the solar eclipse in aries is here (the end of an era). then neptune moves into aries (the beginning of an era). we're talking about deal or no deal island's season 2 finale (yes i'm not kidding) as an illustration of neptune's shift from pisces into aries, and how to channel a higher power ourselves.

(an interview with David Genat on Parvati Shallow's podcast that really gets into the spiritual inklings and mechanisms behind his win.)

Venus retrograde goes into the heart of the sun this week. Mercury retrograde goes into the heart of the sun too. The halfway point (and climax) of both reflection periods brings inspiration and probably some frustration. But really: we're talking about March's four (!) void-of-course moons, and the power of letting go. Be careful what you initiate because it just might end!

It's a First Quarter Moon week so it's time to make decisions. Mercury is still retrograde and reaching a very resolute cazimi. We also have 2 aspects that alone would make a banner week but are happening at the same time: Mars conjunct Jupiter and then Mars square Saturn. This is a pivotal time! Remember: it's ok to change your mind.

Mercury stations retrograde on August 5. Common advice is that one shouldn't initiate anything while Mercury is retrograde, but I want to question this narrative. Is having a job or a relationship where "check ins" are necessary really such a bad thing? This week is a divine pause before the rest of August gets pretty messy. What's the dream? What isn't the dream?

The week begins with a bang and ends with a Full Moon in Capricorn that feels heavy like the crown. Brace for impact. It's going to feel raw. We get into: the United States Pluto Return's last gasps, Mars on Algol and wild women, the "Make It Work!" (-Tim Gunn) vibes coming in August; Mars in Gemini as a much needed re-do; and cinematic endings. If this week was an album it would be "OK Computer" by Radiohead.

It's the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille. Time to start a revolution. Last week's New Moon in Cancer was super dreamy and hopeful, and now it's time to set intentions with that same imaginative intent. Something bigger is brewing under the surface though. Obsession and doubt might creep in, but it's not the time to back away. It's time to leap.

Saturn is stationing retrograde which means we've got that giant ringed planet who's all about boundaries playing in surround sound. As I'm typing this description, I'm realizing that I forgot to wax poetic about Penn Badgley's Saturn revelations in a recent interview with Ariana Grande. Watch the clip here. He is def an astrology girlie. This week is kind of intense, but also really delightful and romantic. Enjoy!

Happy Cancer season! Happy summer solstice! After so much activity in buzzy intellectual Gemini, this week brings us down to earth and into the river with Mercury, Venus and the Sun all moving into Cancer followed by a revealing Full Moon in Capricorn. We talk: Mercury and Venus in Cancer as the food writer and the revolutionary poet, and how you might finally figure out what April's eclipse season was on about this weekend. What feels good now? What doesn't feel good now but will in the long term?

It's a New Moon in Pisces this week. The common understanding of New Moons is that they're for setting intentions and planting seeds, but lunations are just as much an ending as they are a beginning. This week's New Moon feels like an ending, Exit Music (For A Film) if you're nasty.

It's Venus in Scorpio time. We might think of Venus in Scorpio as the epitome of dramatic mood swings, and over the top sexy emotional lyricism (a la Canadian rapper Aubrey Graham), but I found in my research that it's really just the placement of pretty much every famous film director of the 20th Century. This is a very Venusian week. Great for reflecting on 2023 and thinking about what you want in 2024.

This week’s forecast has a New Moon in Scorpio, the Sun facing off with Uranus, a sweet Mercury-Venus connection that carries us through the next few weeks, plus Mars going into the heart of the Sun as both connect with imaginative and hazy Neptune. Motivations get a hard reset this week, and there some cute moments to launch/announce/generally have a good time. Welcome to an intense but sweet spot of November 2023!

New Moon in Scorpio

It’s time to change up the strategy! Leaving a very watery few weeks means channeling more air and fire. We get into: Saturn in Pisces stationing direct as the call to choose a path; Venus finally back in business after being reborn and then struggling since June; Venus in Libra as the provocative diplomat; Mercury in Sagittarius as the blunt genius; Mars opposite Uranus as a call to say “feel your feelings but don’t get caught in that SWAMP again.”

We’re out of eclipse season but that doesn’t mean things will be anymore “chill.” We get into: all the Scorpio planets facing off with Uranus over the next few weeks, Venus trine Uranus as the “we’re pivoting!” queen; Jupiter is the closest to Earth it will be all year!; Venus opposite Neptune as blessing and curse; and Saturn stationing direct as a call to “get serious.”

Back into the eclipse portal we go! (Some astrologers don’t like using the word portal because it’s vague. And I get that. But isn’t it also fun!? I think we could all use some fun.)

We’re back again with yet another episode of good fortune! beta Episode 0.10 (!!!) is a Forecast for the Week of May 22-28, 2023. We get into: how this week is ALL ABOUT MARS; what direction has your life been moving in since October 8, 2021 and how would you like to start wrapping up that chapter?; this week is a mix of void moons and dynamic Mars action and the best thing to do might actually be focusing on the easy wins, ok? (check the simple tasks off the to do lists and don’t push yourself to do much else); also Venus sextile Neptune and the power of the low-key innovator.

We’re back again with yet another episode of good fortune! beta Episode 0.9 (!!!) is a Forecast for the Week of May 15-21, 2023. We get into: Taurus’ obsession with REALITY; how Mars sextile Neptune reminds me that downtown theatre is “all form and no content” (maybe i’m old fashioned, but I just like it when actors act. Radical I know.); how Jupiter forces us to PAY ATTENTION (which, to paraphrase that nun in Lady Bird,“aren’t they the same thing? love and attention?”); the “I Don’t Care (I Love It!)” ethos of Mars entering Leo; + guidance for each sign on what the New Moon in Taurus means for you + much more / I’m about to start my period and my brain is foggy. Can’t wait to hear what you think of this one! xo

Here’s a picture I took in Griffith Park on the evening of June 19, 2019 while semi-lost hiking on what turned out to not be a trail. Scary and exhilarating. Hollywood sign obscured by setting sunlight. Mars was opposite Pluto.

We’re back again with yet another episode of good fortune! beta Episode 0.8 is a Forecast for the Week of May 8-14, 2023. We get into: Eclipse Season happenings and how we’re seeing the results of Mars Retrograde (October 2022-January 2023) now; the astrology of the WGA Strike and how long those negotiations might go on; Sun conjunct Uranus as a chance to find freedom via disruption; Mercury Rx - Venus - Saturn interplay as a moment for folding clothes Marie Kondo style and starting a new bullet journal; + Mercury finally stations direct!

We get into: this week’s Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio as an opportunity to cancel the show and do a staged reading instead; more relating back to the “aggressive act of fate” of August 1, 2022 (!!); Steve Buscemi as the AI simulation of a “relatable actor”; Mercury cazimi, Pluto retograde and an opening sense of hope; + how unfollowing a bunch of people on Instagram can be eclipse remediation.

We’re back again with another episode of good fortune! This is a forecast for the Week of April 17-23, 2023. We get into: why eclipse week is notthe time to girlboss too close to the Sun; the coming age of no nuance; why Pluto in Aquarius might say more about us taking advantage of the bots than the bots taking advantage of us; Mercury retrograde as a time for reflection & …more! Take it easy this week, babes. Love you.

beta Episode 0.4 is a Forecast for the Week of April 10-16, 2023. We get into: how quality time (NOT words of affirmation) is the love language for Venus in Gemini; Venus trine Pluto as an excuse to flirt via nerding out; the optimistic reset of Sun-Jupiter conjunctions; Venus square Saturn and the necessity of giving form to content; also, we answer the question “what is a void moon?” while pointing out times of momentum vs. times of rest over the course of this week.

beta Episode 0.3 is a Forecast for the Week of April 3-9, 2023. Yes, we’re still in beta, babes. But next week?! we might go OFFICIAL. (Also as a side note, instead of “soft launching” romantic partners, should we start calling them beta bf or gf? or beta babe? idk it was a long week and I am riffinghere).

We get into: Mercury in Taurus’ desire to feel into everything and how that relates to Seth Rogen’s ceramics (I may have exaggerated and said he makes pipes and bongs, but he’s actually just doing ashtrays?! Could’ve sworn he designed a ceramic bong—I guess it was a dream!); the push and pull of having too many ideas and figuring out where to put them; the “I’m ready to wallow now” of it all for the Full Moon in Libra & how we might earnestly celebrate Passover and Easter this year because of it; Venus-Neptune soft aspects as the calling card of surrealists and what this has to say about our lack of imagination as adults; plus dates to keep in mind for the looming Mercury retrograde.

beta Episode 0.2 is a Forecast for the Week of March 27-April 2, 2023. We’re still asking: does a podcast have to be a podcast?

We get into: the exhaustion of last week’s “finals week,” how each sign can best use the “big announcement” energy of the Mercury-Jupiter conjunction; how Mars and Saturn have a bad rep but that doesn’t mean they’re “bad boys”; how Venus conjunct Uranus speaks to reinvention, while it also reminds us that everything new and exciting eventually becomes passé. Choose your own adventure! (or, Ignore but Digest).

We’re back with another episode of good fortune!Thank you to everyone who listened to the first episode and gave me your feedback!

beta Episode 0.1 is a Forecast for the Week of March 20-26, 2023. It’s open to both free and paid subscribers because I want to test the waters and get alllll the feedback. The question really is: does a podcast have to be a podcast?

We get into: the desire pit of Venus conjunct Rahu and why Shoshanna from Girlsmight be a stronger cultural representation for this aspect than even Lana Del Rey; the “Why Not?” energy of the New Moon in Aries and the fine line between divas and influencers; why Pluto entering in Aquarius is a big deal but probably isn’t about you; and why Mars in Cancer seems tricky but is OK if we’re down to “get” “vulnerable.”

*also want to issue one (1) correction - Venus was last conjunct the North Node on June 16, 2022 (notJune 11, 2022)
