You
Who are the source of all power,
Whose rays illuminate the world,
Illuminate also my heart
So that it too can do Your work.

We are in Eclipse Season!
Eclipses signify times of fated/destined changes or events in our lives and the world around us! They are like supercharged New/Full Moons, said to be 10 times more powerful than a normal lunation. They are times when our most steady lights, the Sun and Moon, go dark. Eclipses were seen as negative omens by ancient people and astrologers. It is advised to avoid charging your crystals/tools under the light of the Eclispes. It is also advised to avoid intention setting and manifestation rituals during Eclispes. We do not want to charge sacred items or do intention setting/manifestations because Eclispes open portals of energy, and we NEVER know what's coming through portals. We want to be vigilant of whatever comes in, however. Eclispes are times to pray, fast, and lie low while the energy is whirling around us. Eclispes are like energetic Cat 5 hurricanes; it's not advised to venture out into these storms to explore. Whatever we pull in if we are manifesting/charging will have the energy of Eclispes imprinted. Eclispes are chaotic times; why invite more chaos than necessary?!
Powerful beginnings and endings often take place around Eclipses. Trust that whatever is coming in or leaving our lives is fated. Destiny is in the driver's seat in our lives, and Eclipses are known to course-correct us if we've gotten on the wrong path or are stuck. It may not feel like it, but whatever is happening IS for our Highest Good. We may need some time and space from the events to see the Higher Purpose in the Eclipse events.
We are likely to hear more about pregnancies, births, engagements, wedding announcements, as well as deaths, relationships ending, or job losses during this time. This first Eclipse in Leo is a Solar Eclipse (always a New Moon); it's a South Node Eclipse, so significant, powerful endings, wrapped in new beginnings are coming in. Something is being taken away, and replaced with something else. This is a spiritual course correction, because Jupiter is also in Leo.
The Nodes of Fate are in Leo-Aquarius now! This is a massive vibe shift! We can expect fated/destined events to unfold. The South Node will enter Leo, co-present with Jupiter in Leo. The North Node will enter Aquarius, co-present with Pluto in Aquarius! This will be an intensely powerful 18-month transit. Having the Nodes of Fate co-present with these powerful planets means massive changes in our lives and the world around us!
The South Node in Leo, co-present with Jupiter in Leo, has a contradictory energy. Leo is the King/Queen, the star of the show. The South Node drains, empties, and removes. Jupiter is bringing spiritual course corrections to the Leos, highlighting and amplifying true King/Queen power and energy. The "false idols" are falling away. I see this transit as the return of the King. As in true kingly energy, leaders are here to serve in the position of leadership. I see this as King Author vibes. Maybe we need to go back to what works.
The North Node is in Aquarius, co-present with Pluto in Aquarius. We will see an acceleration of breaking down old orders to prepare us for the future and to welcome in the new era/world. The North Node calls us uncomfortably toward our future desires and destiny. We are being asked to lean in.
This is a significant vibe shift in our collective lessons and where our attention is focusing. Look to the Leo-Aquarius part of your charts to see where the Eclispes next month are taking place! The Nodes are in Fixed signs, so deep, powerful transformations, endings and beginnings are taking shape. The last time that the Nodes were in these signs was in 12/2007- 8/2009, when the North and South Nodes were in the same signs as now. We had the Nodal reversal from 5/2017-11/2018, when the North Node was in Leo and the South Node in Aquarius. Look back to this time for themes of what's in store for us! It's never exactly the same, but similar themes are active.
Today:
It's a big day!
Venus leaves her sign of fall and enters her home sign of Libra this afternoon! YAY! Venus loves being in her Libran home palace; she's strong here! Venus is slowing down, preparing for her upcoming retrograde in October! Venus enters her Rx Shadow at the end of the month! She begins her retrograde in Scorpio and moves back into Libra! Venus will be moving back and forth between Libra and Scorpio until December!
We have a supportive Sun-Saturn trine late tonight! This is a flowing Fire trine. Saturn and the Sun are feeling highly motivated and inspired. The Sun is strong and feeling great; Saturn offers some long-term support.
Mercury clears its Rx Shadow late tonight! YAY! This has been an eventful Mercury Rx season, and I'm so glad to be done with it! Mercury entered its Rx Shadow on 6/13, Stationed Rx on 6/29, Stationed Direct on 7/23, and is finally clearing its Rx Shadow tonight. This retrograde has been entirely in sensitive Cancer. Mercury is moving quickly now and wraps up its time in Cancer on Sunday afternoon, when Mercury enters Leo! We can expect to hear big news today/tomorrow around the retrograde storylines! It's Eclipse news, so hang on to your hats!
The Moon continues through Taurus today, only making one aspect this evening. The Moon goes void of course this evening and remains void for the rest of the night! The Moon will enter Gemini early tomorrow morning.
The Moon is in Taurus; the Moon in Taurus is stable, persistent, sensual, materialistic, possessive, security-oriented, comfort-loving, patient, determined, stubborn, and practical.
The Moon in Taurus is exalted but is answering to Venus in Virgo, in her sign of Fall.
It's a tough Taurus Moon!
There are no aspects until mid-afternoon.
Venus enters Libra at 3:13 pm; Venus is finally back in her home sign! She loves being in Libra, where her focus moves to beauty, love, relationships, partnerships, social events, and aesthetics. Venus rules over Taurus and Libra, so both signs benefit greatly from having their ruler at home. Venus is moving slowly through Libra, so enjoy this powerful time. The feminine is strong now. Venus in Libra is classic beauty, aesthetically pleasing, fair, balancing, and loves love!
Moon in Taurus sextiles Mercury in Cancer at 7:25 pm; the Moon is feeling great now that Venus, the ruler of Taurus, is in her sister home sign, Libra! This uplifts and supports the Taurus Moon! This is the final aspect to Mercury in its shadow. Important, ongoing conversations are being highlighted now. Good news, helpful conversations, and helpful friends are coming through for us now.
The Moon goes void of course with this aspect and remains void for the rest of the night. It's a relaxing void Moon. Stay close to home, enjoy a game night, or quality time with loved ones. Avoid arguments, fights, and confrontations during void Moons!
Create a sacred, protected sleep space before going to bed tonight.
Sun in Leo trines Saturn Rx in Aries at 10:44 pm; Saturn is still sitting at its Stationary Rx degree. The Sun is coming in to highlight the lessons and messages of Saturn's Station. The Sun in Leo is at home and feeling strong, offering some much-needed support to Saturn in his sign of fall. It is also helpful to Saturn that Venus is now in Libra. SAturn is exalted in Libra, so Saturn will receive some Mutual Reception. Basically, Saturn is seeing that there's some hope and lots of support for him. The Sun is reminding SAturn that all is not lost!
Mercury in Cancer clears its Retorgrade Shadow at 11:30 pm; HOORAY! For me, the actual retrograde was fine, but this Direct Shadow period has been brutal! This is where the storylines of what's really been going on beneath the surface come to light. Pay attention to what you hear today and tomorrow! Mercury has been seriously debilitated, but knows there's hope on the horizon. Mercury has been in Cancer since 6/1, and finally leaves Cancer on Sunday afternoon!
The Moon enters Gemini at 2:08 am 8/7; the Moon in Gemini is restless, communicative, curious, versatile, flexible, quickwitted, diversified, and scattered.
The Moon is answering to Mercury in Cancer, newly cleared from its Rx Shadow phase! This makes Friday a big news day!
Moon in Gemini trines Venus in Libra at 2:57 am 8/7; this is a loving, beautiful Air trine! The Moon and Venus are flowing in harmony. The Moon sends Venus a welcome home basket. Pay attention to your dreams tonight! Sweet dreams!

Whale- Record Keeper
Whale medicine is much like a swimming library. Whale carries the history of Mother Earth and is said to have been placed here by the Ancients from the Dog Star, Sirius.
Whale medicine teaches us to use the sounds and frequencies that balance our emotional bodies and heal our physical forms.
Whale is asking us to tap into our records and allow ourselves to be sung to by those who have the original language. We are the only creatures who do not have our own unique call or cry. Find yours. Allow your voice to use this sound to release tension or emotion. Whale signals a time of finding your origins, of seeing your overall destiny as coded in your DNA, and of finding the sounds that will release those records. You may never be the same again. After all, you are the melody of the Universe, and the harmony is the song of the other creatures. In using your voice to open your memory, you are expressing your uniqueness and your personal sound. This will open your personal records so that you may further explore your soul's history and commune with Whale, who carries the history of us all.
Year of the Yang Fire Horse!
Fire Horse years are extremely fast-moving, so buckle up! The last time that we had a Fire Horse year was 1966! The Fire Horse is bold, independent, passionate, strong-willed, and rebellious! Live with passion! Let your light shine!
Bedroom Feng Shui
I love the look of plants in the bedroom, but did you know that it is said that plants in the bedroom drain your energy? Humans are considered to be an Earth element. Plants are the Wood element. In the 5 Element theory, Wood drains Earth energy. As always, do what is best for you! Take a look at your energy levels; if you have plants, pictures of flowers, or even plant patterns on your bedsheets, maybe begin trading them out.
Bedrooms do best with neutral colors, earthy colors.
