Every year, astrology coins one day as the “luckiest day of the year.” This year, it’s July 29th. It’s when Jupiter, the planet of ‘luck,’ sits in the heart of the Sun.
Growing up, we all knew our Sun Signs. We’d read the back of a magazine and form labels about ourselves that felt like we needed to latch onto: Leos are dramatic, Virgos are type A, Libras like pretty things, and Cancers are emotional. Astrology, done.
If you read our article about using your birth chart as a career blueprint, you may have discovered interesting insights about what career might suit you best. While this can be incredibly enlightening in clarifying what it is you truly want to accomplish professionally, you…
Even if you don’t know anything about astrology, you’ve heard of Mercury Retrograde. You’ve heard it as an all-encompassing excuse for confusion, plans gone awry, and things going wrong. Maybe you’ve heard you’re not supposed to sign contracts or get on an airplane or undergo…
We spend so much of our lives trying to be seen. But in a world where everyone has a platform and where even authenticity can feel carefully curated, it’s becoming harder to tell the difference between visibility and self-expression. What does it actually mean to show up as…
As an expert astrologer, I obviously love astrology, but I think we’ve gotten a little lost in how we use it. Too often, we treat transits like predictions instead of invitations. We want astrology to tell us what will happen, when its real gift is helping us understand…
This weekend’s New Moon in Gemini ushered in a season for being social and prioritizing friendships.
The astrology of 2026 is showing us that the way we've always done things isn't sustainable. With Saturn and Neptune moving through Aries, many of us are confronting burnout head-on. Whether it's work, family obligations, your side hustle, or the endless pressure to optimize…

If you’re on astrology TikTok, you’ve definitely seen videos hyping up the astrology of this week (and if not, we’ve got you covered). And when the internet all locks into the same astrological moment at once, you know it’s not subtle. And to add onto that, unless you’ve been…
How many times have you tried to figure out your “career purpose”? The one thing you’re supposed to build your entire life around. The one thing that also, shockingly enough, becomes something you’re told to figure out at the ripe age of 18.
I think we’ve collectively forgotten that life is supposed to feel good.

Eclipse Season + Mercury in Retrograde = it’s time to…slow down.

Saturn is retrograde for about four and a half months a year, so nearly every Saturn return contains at least one retrograde pass. The return then arrives in stages: the same commitment, job or relationship comes back two or three times, and each pass asks you to revisit it rather than settle it.
Astrocartography is a form of locational astrology that maps your birth chart onto the globe to show where each planet—Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto—was rising, setting, culminating, or at the I.C. at your exact birth time. It promises to reveal which places on Earth amplify certain themes in your life.
