As we dive into another weekend filled with cosmic shenanigans, let’s take a moment to consider: Are we ready to embrace the unexpected emotions that could bubble to the surface? With Saturn strutting its stuff in Aries and retrograde Mercury doing the backstroke into Cancer, we’re in for a journey that’s equal parts illuminating and possibly, just possibly, a tad messy. You might find yourself evaluating old agreements and emotional landscapes—like trying to find the subtle nuances in a fiery beer commercial; it’s all about the delivery. This weekend, the celestial vibes encourage us to rethink our commitments and perspectives—particularly as the Moon flits from Gemini into Cancer, bringing emotional depth to our understanding. So, before you finalize those weekend plans, remember: what might feel fair to you could look wildly different to someone else. Let’s keep that in mind! LEARN MORE

As Saturn moves forward in Aries, retrograde Cancer Mercury moves back to meet it in square. Retro Mercury also heads back into conjunction with the Cancer Sun.
The Moon transits Gemini till Sunday then slips into Cancer as Gemini-ruler Mercury passes over the Moon-ruled Sun. Ships passing in the (nearly) night? Well illuminated for sure; but with Mercury-Saturn, what’s illuminated may be seemingly settled agreements or understandings that take an emotional toll or redress.
The plan becomes the path. But when we’re walking that path we may notice conditions we didn’t see the first time. Fairness is in play. Maybe things are not fair and they should be. Maybe things ARE fair, but someone decides they don’t want to play that game anymore. Or maybe a deal just falls apart. In any case, emotions are solidly, actively impacted. Seek out more than your own perspective. Even if that person is affected, at least you’ll be able to enact judgement outside your own head. Commitments may need to be rewritten or reinterpreted.
If you feel affronted this weekend, take it seriously and check your perceptions against objective reality. Sometimes things just go wrong and it’s no one’s fault. Sometimes it’s someone’s fault and needs to be readdressed. The plan can be changed and reframed, possibly to your benefit, so don’t get caught up in an unnecessary struggle for control. Make it make sense, and make sure what makes sense actually works.
Mars in Gemini is direct and unfettered, so now is the time to get up, get out, and get on the case. Track down the issue and move with the airy flow.
All weekend, Virgo Venus heads into square with Uranus and Mars. So keep your head in the game and don’t get your knickers in a twist about what’s wrong with the picture. Sure it stings, maybe it’s even embarrassing. Ultimately we’re checking our safety, so read it like a story rather than an insult. We’re on the case to hone a good story here!
Friday night, the Gemini Moon squares Virgo Venus, sextiles Leo Jupiter, conjoins Uranus, then trines retro Pluto in Aquarius. It’s okay to be infused with energy and excited! Intensity and novelty get us going. Alive and awake is a stimulating state. It’s healthy to rev up and clear the mechanism. In fact, friction — both literal and metaphorical — connects to pleasure, even if it doesn’t start there. A volcanic ending might end up illuminating the situation.
Saturday night’s Gemini Moon sextiles Saturn and Pallas Athena in Aries. There’s a chance to fill in the blanks and correctly order the impulses. It feels like something slips into place and you’ve got at least one steady leg to stand on, maybe even two!
Sunday morning, the Gemini Moon finishes up the sextile to Pallas then sextiles Vesta in Aries. A (relatively) quick understanding leads to emotional and intellectual investment: devotion. The Moon then moves to Cancer and retro Mercury conjoins the Sun. Maybe an aha moment, maybe it’s too close to call right now. The moment calls for the perspective of time and further consideration.
The Cancer Moon sextiles Taurus Chiron and Virgo Venus, splitting their past-exact trine. It goes on to square Aries Neptune. Don’t allow the emotional impact of everything that’s going on, everything wanted and unwanted, to usurp the peace you’ve already worked for and invested in. The peace is in YOU, and it follows your path of mastery as you edit and continue to learn. Don’t forget your tribe/village in this. You’re not in it alone. Share in the delightful AND the painful moments. That’s true community. That’s also what we’re shaping now; don’t forget.
Do you have any weekend plans?
Thank you for all your kind sentiments! We’re out of fire danger. Now I’m navigating big heat in full sun with my beloved Keke (Yuki). I’m figuring it out and we will get through this.
