The universe this week no longer asks for gentle reflection, it asks for new beginnings. If the past few weeks have been about emotional recalibration and honest conversation, this one is about momentum.
The overarching energies of the next month come with the start of Pisces season on Wednesday, shifting the collective tone from Aquarius’ detachment into something more intuitive, tender and emotionally porous. We feel more, we sense more and the boundaries between thought and feeling blur.
But before Pisces season sets in, Aquarius season ends with a characteristic bang. This week’s center is the New Moon and Solar Eclipse in Aquarius on Tuesday, forcing us to address the communities we belong to, the systems we participate in and the identities we are growing into. Lunar Aquarius energy asks for honesty about the future; something begins here, but it may not announce itself clearly yet. Remember that eclipses mark turning points, not tidy fresh starts.
Setting the stage for the eclipse, the Sun squares Uranus on Monday to jolt the atmosphere with unpredictability. Uranus doesn’t create chaos for entertainment, it creates disruption when something has been maintained past its expiration date. Plans change, truths surface abruptly and whatever has been stagnant becomes harder to tolerate. The pressure is not random. It’s directional.
Midweek brings energies of softness and meaning when Mercury trines Jupiter to offer a rare moment for our words to land with optimism rather than defensiveness. On Wednesday, Venus conjuncts the North Node in Pisces, adding a feeling of emotional significance to connection, art and desire. This is not about fantasy, it is about recognizing what pulls you forward.
On Friday, Saturn conjuncts Neptune at zero degrees in Aries, marking one of the most defining transits of the year. Think of this as the merging of structure and dreams; discipline and idealism; reality and visions. This is the moment where imagination stops being escapism and becomes responsibility. This new era asks: What will you actually build?
The week closes with gentler forward motion as Mars sextiles Chiron to support healing through action. Venus will trine Jupiter on Sunday to offer sweetness, generosity and emotional ease after a charged beginning.
This week undoubtedly opens a new disruptive, meaningful and quietly irreversible chapter. As the stars beacon us forward, choose your future with both courage and care.
Love, a stinky Gemini

Aries (March 21 – April 19):
Saturn conjunct Neptune in your sign’s first degrees begins a long redefinition of identity. You are now blending realism with vision. This week’s eclipse asks what kind of future you’re initiating, even if you can’t name it yet. What upcoming changes have already been foreseen by your intuition? Let action be intentional, not reactive.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20):
The Aquarius eclipse hits your career and public direction. Something about your path forward is shifting, whether through ambition or discomfort. Sun square Uranus can bring sudden news around work or authority, while Venus trine Jupiter later in the week reminds you that support exists. Don’t do it all alone, Taurus.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20):
Mercury trine Jupiter will gift you some perspective. Writing and conversations will begin to actually open doors. The eclipse asks you to expand your education, travel or belief systems, bringing into focus the larger story you are living inside. Say yes to the future that feels bigger than fear.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22):
This week’s eclipse activates intimacy, shared resources and emotional truth. Something regarding trust is being rewritten. Venus conjunct the North Node in Pisces may bring a meaningful connection or realization about what you truly want. Saturn and Neptune ask you to ground your dreams without abandoning them.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22):
Aquarius eclipse energy lands directly in your relationship axis, bringing partnerships, commitments and emotional reciprocity into focus. Sun square Uranus may shake loose an outdated dynamic that has been weighing on your spiritual wellbeing. By the weekend, Venus trine Jupiter softens the edges, helping you transition to a new chapter. Honesty doesn’t have to be harsh, Leo.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22):
This week is about daily life and long-term sustainability. The eclipse on Tuesday resets routines, work habits and health patterns. What you do every day is shaping your future more than you think, Virgo. Mercury trine Jupiter helps you see solutions clearly instead of overanalyzing.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22):
The Aquarius eclipse sparks creativity, romance and self-expression. Something in your life wants to begin again, but with more authenticity than before. Venus conjunct the North Node brings emotional significance in love or art, guiding your spirit toward rejuvenation. Saturn and Neptune ask you to take your desire seriously; don’t push your aspiration to the back burner.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21):
Your home and emotional foundations are shifting, Scorpio. The eclipse may mark a turning point in family dynamics, living situations or what safety means now. Sun square Uranus can bring surprises in relationships. Stay grounded in what you know is true and be open to shedding what no longer serves you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21):
Mercury trine Jupiter opens communication and opportunity. Conversations this week can genuinely redirect you, so keep your mind open to change. The eclipse highlights voice, learning, writing and local movement. Your words matter, Sagittarius. Venus trine Jupiter adds warmth to home and connection.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19):
This eclipse reframes money, worth and stability. What you value is changing — and so is what you’re willing to work for. Saturn conjunct Neptune asks you to build something real out of a dream you have carried quietly. Take practical steps, Capricorn. Do not give into old pressure.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18):
The New Moon and Solar Eclipse in your sign opens a new chapter of identity, community and future direction. This is your eclipse, Aquarius; a personal reset. Sun square Uranus may make the changes feel sudden, but you know this has been building for months. Trust what begins.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20):
Your energies are painted all over the cosmos this week as Pisces season begins, Venus conjuncts the North Node and Venus trines Jupiter. This is a week of emotional alignment for you, Pisces. Connection feels meaningful, intuition is louder and something new in the realms of love and creativity may feel fated. Let tenderness be a compass as you settle into your higher self and step into a new era.
