Ah, Taurus season—the time of year when we revel in life’s little luxuries. Cozy blankets? Check. Decadent meals? Absolutely. A bank account that’s mysteriously shrinking because “treat yourself” turned into “whoops, I spent how much?” Yep, that too. But let’s talk about the real bull in the room—the Minotaur. Now, you may have heard that Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, love, and everything pleasant. But don’t let that fool you—this sign has a shadow side, and it’s lurking in a labyrinth of its own making. Enter the myth of King Minos of Crete, which might just be the perfect Taurus tale (with a little side of psychological horror). King Minos, son of Zeus and Europa, wanted the throne of Crete, and like any good politician, he knew divine backing would seal the deal. So, he prayed to his uncle Poseidon for a sign—something impressive, something regal, something…bullish....

The bulk of the month begins the preparation for the astrological New Year, as the Sun moves into the sign of Aries on March 20th (5:01 AM EST/2:01 AM PST).  So, after three months of traversing through the astrological collective signs, the changes you have made and the seeds you planted will sprout, the air will start to warm up, and the promise of a fresh start is on the way. Since Aries is a fire sign, it’s time to focus on living our best lives and creating a path to make that happen. So, leave the past behind and focus on your intentions. 5 Magical Ways to Make the Most of Aries Season Fire Magic: Do you remember when you were a child and how you blew out a birthday candle? Did you make a wish? Guess what? You were doing fire magic, and candle magic is one of its...

In February, we enter Pisces season. Now, there is a lot of confusion surrounding the sign of Pisces, and it ranges from spiritual ecstasy to alcoholic stupors. The point is that after being confronted with the realities of the real world in Capricorn season, and the landscape of group speak in Aquarius, Pisces urges us to seek something more meaningful. It ENDS…  My favorite quote from the Matrix Revolutions is, “Everything that has a beginning, has an end (The Oracle).” Well, the end is here! Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and completes a cycle that began last March. Pisces reflects the process of going inwards after eleven months of experiencing the outer world and preparing to begin that process again once the Sun moves into Aries. Most magical practitioners know how to work with the cycles of the Moon, but for those who are not, let's explain the...

January 2025 Astro Magic

The month of December brings us Capricorn season, which begins on Winter Solstice (December 21) and continues until the Sun moves into Aquarius on January 19th.

Capricorn is an earth sign that is concerned with taking charge, being ambitious, striving for success, and focusing on things that matter. In other words, it’s not the time to be passive and let the world pass you by; it’s time to seize your moment and make things happen.  Since Capricorn is a cardinal sign, the past no longer matters. It is what you can do today that should be your focus. 

Picture this: you’ve just crawled through the ashes like a reborn Phoenix, and now—boom!—the archer (aka Sagittarius) shows up, flexes, and aims his arrow toward the stars. The vibe shift is real. Scorpio season had us all sweating bullets, facing our phobias, dysfunctions, and those oh-so-cringe things we’ve been avoiding. But Sagittarius? It’s all about looking ahead—no rear-view mirrors allowed.

Reptiles have always been associated with the sign of Scorpio.  The symbolism of the snake shedding its skin reflects Scorpio's powers of transformation and its natural association with death and disintegration. And there is no better figure to represent the sign of the scorpion than the mythic Medusa.

Libra is the sign of relationships, and on the practical level, it is. And although pop astrology focuses on love relationships, the sign of the scales governs all relationships, even relationships with our enemies. 

But what is the undercurrent of the sign of the scales? 

August is here, and it's time to welcome Virgo season! In Kabbalah, this month of Elul is associated with the cosmic process of repentance (Teshuvah). This is where we take stock of our actions throughout the year, reflect on their root cause, make amends when necessary, and try to avoid repeating the same mistakes in the future.

I must admit that I may be biased this month being a Leo, but I hope my exuberance over the sign can be a catalyst for inner change, transformation, and some good ole’ magic.

The month of June brings the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, and we find ourselves swimming in the healing waters of the sign of Cancer. Cancer is known for its nurturing qualities and is the sign associated with mothers and motherhood. So, while we are in the sign of the crab, our focus will be on self-care, caring for our families, family and tribal bonds, and comfort and security.

Can you believe it’s already May? This year is rapidly passing us by, and the month of May could be the month when we turn the curve completely and begin to do what we can to improve our lives after a few years of upheaval.

And, for many, this couldn’t come any sooner. Feel free to breathe a sigh of relief, and welcome to the new normal. Although Gemini season is about ideas, exchange, and learning about new things, it’s also about having some fun and enjoying ourselves. In psychology, Gemini is connected to the Puer Aeternus (Eternal Youth), and during this season it's helpful to let our inner child play and enjoy life – at least a little bit.

So, let’s dive into all the magical ways that we can tap into Gemini season.

Welcome to the month of April. We have the biggest aspect of the year, as Jupiter conjoins Uranus in Taurus and a massive Solar Eclipse in Aries. We also have Mercury retrograde, which begins the month on April Fool’s Day.

Let’s dive into all the magical goodies this month has to offer.

Astro Magic November 2023

Out of the Phoenix's ashes, the archer rises and points his arrow into the eternal heavens. It’s a drastic shift in energies from the discomfort we faced during Scorpio season. Scorpio season is about facing our fears, phobias, and working on our dysfunctions (and yes, we all have them); whereas Sagittarius season is about looking to the future -- onward and upward.
