The Week of May 11th, 2026
The astrology of the week of May 11th, 2026, brings clarity and a little chaos. Mercury’s sextile to Jupiter helps us get practical and precise in our communications, and the Mercury cazimi offers an extra boost of insight. But when Mars runs into Chiron, our hurts get highlighted. And with the New Moon in Taurus sitting next to Algol (the fixed star associated with rage and betrayal), we’re called to honor our anger if we want to reclaim our power. Then, when Mercury moves into Gemini and meets up with Uranus, our wit and wild ideas get a jolt of high-voltage energy. So get clear on the things that need your attention and your honesty before Gemini season dials up the distractions.

The Week of May 4th, 2026
The astrology of the week of May 4th, 2026, offers a much-needed morale boost. When Mars squares Jupiter, our confidence to take action skyrockets, and our nerve is bolstered by how we’ve handled all the challenges of the last few weeks. And as Mercury squares Pluto, right before the planet of the underworld stations retrograde in Aquarius, we’re asked to identify the problems in our systems and dive into deep conversation about the changes we need going forward. Then the Sun’s sextile to Jupiter reminds us that we can take our time and relish the things that bring us joy. Don’t let this surge of energy go to waste.

The Week of April 27th, 2026
The astrology of the week of April 27th, 2026, is transformative, to say the least. The Scorpio Full Moon reveals the harsh truths we have to face if we want to grow. And as Venus trines Pluto, squares the lunar nodes, and sextiles Saturn, we’re encouraged to not only build meaningful connections but ground into the power of those relationships. Plus, Mercury’s conjunction with Chiron brings our hurts to the surface and pushes us to have the tough (but necessary) conversations so we can heal. It may seem heavy, but showing up with courage and commitment now will help us unlock the change we need most.
