Mars Enters Virgo: Cutting with Precision, Not Fire

Mars Enters Virgo: Cutting with Precision, Not Fire

At 2:35 AM MST, Mars finally enters Virgo leaving behind the loud, dramatic flares of Leo for something sharper, cleaner, and more exacting.

Mars isn’t in its favorite place here. Virgo is about order, routines, and logic, while Mars is a planet of action, heat, and will. In Virgo, Mars has to operate with restraint. It's not exactly in detriment, but it’s definitely uncomfortable.

Jupiter Enters Cancer: Expansion Meets Emotion

Jupiter Enters Cancer: Expansion Meets Emotion

On June 9, 2025, Jupiter enters Cancer, a sign it’s historically strong in. In traditional astrology, Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, meaning its influence tends to function powerfully here. Cancer deals with care, roots, safety, family, food systems, shelter, and emotional memory. Jupiter, planet of expansion and ideology, moves through this terrain with the desire to nurture at scale: to grow what feels secure, to protect what matters, and to deepen emotional bonds through shared meaning.

But this isn’t an easy, sentimental journey. Right out of the gate, Jupiter runs into pressure. From June 9 to July 1 2026, it enters a square with Saturn and Neptune in Aries, both of which are trying to define (Saturn) and dissolve (Neptune) the future direction of collective action. This square lasts for about a month and sets the tone for the first leg of Jupiter’s transit: emotional expansion meets existential tension.

Major Planetary Shifts: Saturn and Jupiter

Big sky shifts incoming!

Starting May 25, Saturn and Neptune meet up in Aries. This is about structure (Saturn) and vision (Neptune) coming together in the sign of action. It's a rare combo that can feel like pushing through fog: you're ready to move, but not everything is clear yet.

Then on June 10, Jupiter enters Cancer and immediately links up with Mercury. This brings emotional awareness, conversations about safety, home, and how we care for one another. But—this gentle wave meets tension fast, squaring off with that Saturn/Neptune combo.

💥 Translation? Big emotions. Big questions. A push to get real about what matters and what’s worth building next—even if the road isn’t fully mapped out.

More to come. Just know the next few weeks are not small.

Full Moon in Scorpio — May 12, 2025
Copper Marie Copper Marie

Full Moon in Scorpio — May 12, 2025

This one is not subtle. The Full Moon lands in Scorpio at 22°, and it’s directly opposing Uranus at 26° Taurus. That alone tells you what kind of lunation this is: volatile, pressurized, and meant to trigger something that’s already been building.

If you have planets or angles between 18° and 26° of the fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius), you’re in range. This one will hit hard.

Saturn in Aries 2025: Fire, Deadlines, and the Consequences of Action

Saturn enters Aries on May 25, 2025, beginning a new cycle of pressure, structure, and reckoning. But this isn’t a clean slate. Back on April 18, Saturn hit its pre-shadow degree (the point it will retrograde back to later this year.) That date matters. It marked the start of a storyline you’ll be revisiting in full by the end of November when Saturn returns to Pisces.

Mars Opposite Pluto: The Last Clash

Mars in Leo is now opposing Pluto in Aquarius. We’ve been through this tension before. Back in November, it was Mars in Cancer against Pluto in Capricorn. Then again, in late November, Mars moved into Leo while Pluto shifted into Aquarius for the first time. The pressure never really went away, it just changed shape.

Mars in Leo: April 18 – June 17

Mars has entered Leo, and from now until mid-June, we’re moving through a series of sharp, hot alignments. This isn’t a peaceful transit. It’s bold, brash, and highly visible. Every move made between now and June 17 will be remembered, either for its impact, or for its fallout.

Final Showdown: The Mars–Pluto Opposition Closes a Chapter

We’re heading into the third and final Mars–Pluto opposition of a story that’s been unfolding since late 2024. This is a cycle about power, violence, control, resistance, and the systems that crack when force meets force. This is about observable pressure, historical pattern, and how these alignments tend to show up in the real world.

This final pass will begin on April 18, 2025, as Mars re-enters Leo and locks eyes with Pluto in early Aquarius. It's a volatile pairing. Neither planet yields easily, and this time, the stakes are higher than they were before.

Let’s walk through the timeline.

Saturn Alone in Pisces

Saturn Alone in Pisces

From March 30 to May 25, we experience something rare: Saturn in Pisces without Neptune. For over a year, the two have been tangled together, making it hard to tell where reality ends and fantasy begins. But starting March 30, Neptune moves into Aries, giving Saturn a temporary solo stage in Pisces.

This window opens again September 2 to October 22 (during Saturn’s retrograde) and one last time from January 27 to February 14 before Neptune returns and the dream-haze resumes. Take note, these brief separations matter.

In the Space of a Day: An Eclipse, A Slip Into Pisces, and Neptune Crosses the Threshold



We're in the final hours of an era, and the beginning of something sharp, fast, and totally unfamiliar.

At 4:57 a.m. MST on April 8, we experience a total solar eclipse in Aries. Less than 24 hours later, Mercury retrogrades back into Pisces (April 9), and by sunrise on March 30, Neptune leaves Pisces for Aries for the first time since 1861.

In just over 24 hours, three major events converge. That’s not subtle astrology. That’s a signal flare.

Neptune Cazimi

Neptune Cazimi

Something is stirring beneath the surface.

Take a moment. Close your eyes. Breathe. What are you feeling? A whisper of something just beyond reach? A dream slipping through your fingers? A knowing you can’t explain?

Neptune is in the heart of the Sun today, a Neptune Cazimi in Pisces. The last one we will ever experience in our lifetimes. The veil is thinner than ever. The real and the unreal, the seen and the unseen, the dream and the disillusionment—colliding.

Are you lost in the fog, or are you finally seeing the truth?

(P.S. If you're feeling extra weird, extra tuned in, or like reality is a bit too liquid right now... yeah, same.)

Neptune’s Shift into Aries: The Dawn of a New Era (2025-2039)

On March 29, 2025, Neptune will enter Aries for the first time in over 150 years, marking a shift in collective consciousness that will unfold over nearly 14 years. However, its transition will not be immediate. Due to its retrograde cycle, Neptune will dip back into Pisces on October 22, 2025, before fully committing to Aries on January 27, 2026, where it will remain until 2039.

Why Eclipses Have Historically Been Bad Omens

Eclipses have been viewed as ominous for thousands of years, often associated with death, downfall, and disruption in both personal and political realms. Ancient cultures worldwide saw these celestial events as warnings from the gods, signals of instability, or precursors to disaster. Even with modern astronomy and a better understanding of their mechanics, the historical perspective remains relevant, because time and time again, eclipses continue to align with political upheavals, natural disasters, and significant turning points in human history.

New Moon in Pisces – A Dream Within a Dream

Today's New Moon in Pisces is setting the stage for a deeply introspective and surreal moment—one where reality feels thin, and intuition takes the lead. With six placements in Pisces, the collective is swimming in dreams, illusions, and spiritual revelations. Yet, this lunation lightly squares Jupiter in Gemini, creating a tension between boundless imagination and the need for clarity.

But here's the bigger picture: this is the last Pisces New Moon with Neptune in Pisces in our lifetime. Neptune will soon move into Aries, bringing a stark shift from dreamy mysticism to fiery action. This is our final invitation to embrace the Piscean energy. Surrender, dream big, and trust the unknown before the tides change for good.

Stealing Fire, Marking Time: The Astrology of Casper’s Prometheus Statue

In the heart of Casper, standing tall outside the Natrona County Public Library, is a striking bronze statue of Prometheus, sculpted by the renowned artist Robert Russin. Prometheus, a titan from Greek mythology, was punished by the gods for stealing fire and giving it to humanity—a symbol of enlightenment, defiance, and progress. The statue, dedicated on February 8, 1975, is not just a piece of public art but a profound representation of knowledge and rebellion, themes that resonate deeply with the spirit of Casper. Over the years, it has become an iconic local landmark, sparking discussions about mythology, art, and even astrology.

Karl Ernst Krafft: The Nazi Astrologer Who Tried to Predict Fate

Karl Ernst Krafft was a Swiss astrologer whose career took a dark and unexpected turn during the rise of Nazi Germany. Initially known for his statistical research into astrology, he gained notoriety when he seemingly predicted an assassination attempt on Hitler. This brought him into the orbit of Nazi officials, who saw potential in using astrology for psychological warfare. But his association with the Third Reich would ultimately lead to his imprisonment and death in a concentration camp.
