Highlights for April 5-11, 2021: A Fast-Talking World
The Aries New Moon in Aries craves fast results. But this week’s message is that diligence and hard work are a necessary part of this New Moon journey.
Episode 76 | Aries New Moon: An 8-Track Mind
April and Jen load up their favorite eight-track tapes and rock out under a driven (vaguely obsessed?) Aries New Moon! Venus charms Mars, Jupiter, and even Pluto; Mercury, Saturn, and the North Node offer our hard work and chops a chance to shine. Sure, there are a few discordant notes between Venus and Pluto, and Mars and Neptune… but really, when you’re kicking back with good tunes, what could go wrong?
Highlights for March 29-April 4, 2021: Don’t Give Up
The creative, playful spirit in each of us may have been dimmed over the past year of discord, illness, and seclusion. But now, the urge returns to forge a new creative, playful path. The spirit is strong – but we may still be haunted, held back by, or recovering from what was revealed at recent eclipse times…
Episode 75 | Mercury in Aries: Gluten Tag, Y’all!
April and Jen loaf around while covering a week full of Mercury goodness! The god of communication first joins up with Neptune, then makes a friendly move on Pluto before running headfirst into Aries! A Capricorn Last Quarter Moon urges resolution of 2019 and 2020 eclipse challenges, and the Sun, Venus, and Saturn flock together.

Episode 74 | Libra Full Moon: Go Fly a Kite!
It’s a Mercury-heavy Libra Full Moon week that brings the planet of communication into a confrontation with Mars on the Moon’s North Node. Relationships also come into focus this week, as Venus joins up with the Sun, sparking a convo about last June’s Venus Star Point.
Highlights for March 15-22, 2021: Daydreaming
My mind is a million miles and often many years away. I’m reviewing memories. I’m imagining the future. I’m dreaming with my eyes open. That’s how Mercury works, often, when it’s in Pisces.
Episode 73 | Aries Equinox: De-Funkify Yourself
April and Jen spring forward into the Aries Equinox and a week of planetary sign changes! Mercury swims into intuitive Pisces and sextiles innovative Uranus, and the Sun and Venus charge into Aries. This fresh week also brings a helpful Cancer First Quarter Moon, along with energetic Mars and steadying Saturn propelling us toward goals that might have been conceived last summer,
