Recording on Election Day, April & Jen muse over the upcoming week, which includes a lovely New Moon in Scorpio, a mellow Sun/Neptune trine, a final Jupiter/Pluto meetup, Mercury re-entering Scorpio, and Mars in Aries FINALLY turning direct.

Highlights for Nov. 2-8, 2020: Join the Choir
The Leo Last Quarter Moon asks us to decide whether we’re going to give up, demoralized, or whether we’re going to move ahead and live with our whole hearts.
Episode 54 | Mercury Gets Our Vote – Hopefully!
April & Jen welcome our new listeners and bring everyone up to speed on terms like “stationing,” “retrograde,” “transit,” “square,” and “aspect”! This week, Mercury comes to a halt, faces forward, and confronts Saturn; there’s a Last Quarter Moon in Leo; and we peek ahead at next week’s Venus/Mars opposition.
Taurus Full Moon: The Center of You
At this Taurus Full Moon, stand for a while in your favorite pasture. It may be a country meadow, a city park, or your couch; you know where it is – it’s the place that lets you touch the center of you.
Highlights Oct. 26-Nov. 1, 2020: Muertos, Logic, and Visiting Aunt Eleanor
This week’s Full Moon falls on Halloween, but the Taurus Full Moon is the opposite of spooky. Instead, it’s a big, shouty reminder that we’re here to learn from, and to celebrate, life.
Episode 53 | Our Taurus Full Moon Halloween Spooktacular!
April & Jen don their podcasting costumes for a surprising Halloween Taurus Full Moon, Mercury and Saturn fight about what’s fair, and a luxurious trip to Libra for Venus and Mercury – from opposite ends of the sign. Plus: unaspected planets, birth certificate questions, and Jen’s best intro ever! And if you’re in the US, don’t forget to turn back your clocks on November 1!
Highlights for Oct. 19-25, 2020: Long Shadows
We never lose the person we are underneath our clothes, underneath our skin. In the end, maybe that’s enough to keep us brave.
Episode 52 | A Scorpio Season of Long Shadows & Fellowship
After the week begins with Mars coming to the (possibly misguided) rescue, April & Jen breathe a small sigh of relief as Venus in Virgo gets us grounded! The Sun ushers in the complex Scorpio season, and Mercury Rx faces off with the Sun and Uranus, and the Aquarius First Quarter Moon offers a sneak peek at December’s coming attractions.
Libra New Moon: Breaking Down, Breaking Bad, or Breaking Out?
Realizing important dreams has never come without a price. Rebelling against the shackles that bind us, and bravely reclaiming power over our lives, is the price we’ll have to pay now if we hope to find real happiness farther along down the road.
Episode 51 | Libra New Moon: Symmetry, Schmemmetry!
April & Jen gird themselves for a rocky Libra New Moon week, as the Sun’s strained relations with Mars, Saturn, and Pluto bring longstanding grievances to a tipping point; Mercury turns retrograde; relationships get a Venus/Neptune reality check; and the last of three Jupiter/Neptune aspects.
