Hello Aquarius, welcome to your Taurus season ahead reading from
Embodied Astrology. My name is Renee and I'm so
happy to be here with you in Taurus season.
It starts on April 19th that culminates on May 20th and 2026.
And this is a general reading for all of your Aquarius
placements. So your sun, moon and rising are
all welcome here. Themes of your personal planets.
If you're not an Aquarius rising, wherever Aquarius is in
your Natal chart, your 11th house might resonate, your N
node might resonate. If you're working with
astrology, then you know that you have all 12 signs in your
chart. And so there are ways that you
can resonate with any sign. And if you are an Aquarius
identified person with your big three, this is a reading for
you. But general readings are
general. So take what works, leave the
rest and make the meanings that are most meaningful for you and
your situation. OK, Aquarius tourist season,
where should we begin? Let's start just by saying how
much change you've been going through over the course of 2026
so far. Wow, things are really shifting.
You are making really big decisions.
You are activated, engaged and energized in a way that I think
is taking you by surprise. Might be taking other people by
surprise. I'm not sure all of you know
what to do with your energy these days, but you are learning
because life is taking you on a right.
I'm recording for you from December 17th back in 2025.
So it's almost half a year ago in the past, and I have no idea
what is happening on planet Earth in April and May of 2026.
I have my hopes, I have my fears, I have my wishes.
And I will definitely say I think a lot is happening and I
think that things are moving very rapidly and that there is a
lot of change that's happening on Earth and especially in the
realms of the social and the communal and collective.
I feel that there are a lot of groups of people who are
clarifying their affinity and their ambitions and powerful new
networks and and alignments are starting to take shape.
And as we move towards Taurus season, there's an acceleration
of this type of energy. So now Taurus holds the root of
the Aquarius charts, and Aquarius and Taurus are both on
what's called the fixed cross. So you both represent the
accumulated power of your element.
Aquarius is fixed air, Taurus is fixed earth.
Both of your signs can be extremely stubborn, but for you
Aquarius, you're extra stubborn because you've got Taurus coming
up under your root. I'm just joking with you kind
of. I'm also on the fixed cross with
you also have important Aquarius Taurus placements.
So stubbornness is powerful. You know, we don't back down.
Fixed signs know what we're about.
We're not here to try and be other than who we are, but the
purpose of our lives is also to figure out who we are and what
our energy is about so that we can really concentrate our own
power and use it wisely. And I feel that this season is a
season that is really asking you to connect to your internal
anchor, to your own sense of stability and foundation and
your capacity for creativity and change.
Now the major thing that's happening in Taurus season in
2026 is that the outer planet Uranus is leaving Taurus and
it's moving into Gemini. And this is a chapter shift from
the last 7, almost eight years into the next 7 or so years.
Uranus entered Taurus back in 2018 and as of April 26th, 2026,
it will be in Gemini and it will stay there until 2033.
So we have some important changes happening and Uranus is
the modern planet that is often associated with Aquarius.
So if you're familiar with the Aquarius memes, the way that
people talk about Aquarius as future oriented, right, like
alien nature, innovative, scientific, interested in
technology, somewhat emotionally detached, but fucking brilliant.
And you know, has a big picture kind of sense of things and is
an engineering type of energy. Uranus is also an embodiment of
this. And in the symbolic language of
astrology, Uranus represents a collective embodiment of this as
an outer planet spending about seven years in every sign, or
about 84 years orbiting around the sun.
Uranus is talking about the innovation of a generation and
how there might be collective shifts in consciousness and big
aha moments that really get us to shift what's normal, open up
to what's new, destabilize what has been comfortable and
familiar, and then revolutionize and innovate and move into the
future. So we have a planet somewhat
associated with Aquarius moving from a place that's very
important for Aquarius because it holds the root and the
foundation of your chart, your anchor, your internal stability,
your tailbone, your heels. Also home, family and belonging
are important themes of this place.
That energy of innovation and awakening and change is moving
now into Gemini, which is your solar 5th house, which is about
creativity. It's about you expressing
yourself in new and different ways.
It's how you self actualize and deliver into your life and into
the world. What is your unique
contribution? This is a place that has a lot
to do with what you generate and how you create.
And that includes your life and everything you are doing with
your life. And it also includes how much
fun you are able to have and how you're able to conceive of
yourself. That your life could be your
art, right? Like in the Co creation that
you're always a part of, there are potentials for deep artistry
and playfulness, spontaneity, inspiration.
That's a vibe that I think Aquarius is ready for.
Well, let's stay in the past for a minute, OK?
Aquarius is like, no, let's move on.
I'm ready to move on. In order to move on, we have to
understand where we're coming from.
Uranus Inturus since 2018 has been disrupting, innovating,
destabilizing and liberating you in some kind of way, in your
foundations, in your stability and with home and family.
Now a lot of times what is innovative and leads to
consciousness shift and change is also quite disturbing.
And we might be responsible for our own change and disruptions.
And we might also kind of hate that, you know, or we might be
at the whim of somebody else's situation, right?
And then they do a thing and our situation then is impacted.
So I don't know what's been going on for you, Aquarius, over
these last seven or eight years. But I do feel that a lot of you
have been in a time when your home and family life has been
somewhat unstable. Maybe you have been the cause of
that instability. Maybe you have been in the
driver's seat saying I, you know, don't want this home
anymore. I need to change the way that I
relate with family. I've got to innovate how I
access my own sense of stability.
A Taurus at this part of your chart also has a lot to tell us
about what kinds of resources and comfort and rhythm you need
to feel anchored in your own stability.
And when I said, you know, Taurus here makes you extra
stubborn, there was a little bit of truth in that.
I wasn't fully joking because, you know, Taurus does need
things to be rhythmic and when it gets off of its rhythm, it's
not very happy about it. Taurus can be like quite
bullish, right when you try to give it get it to to shift or to
do something different. And so I think that a lot of you
had to work through a lot of resistance.
Now you could have been the ones right, feeling extremely
resistant or maybe there was a lot of stagnancy.
Maybe things felt really slow. Some of you were feeling blocked
by situations, could have been other people, could have been
causes, conditions, circumstances, and you had to
rebel against them. And then there are also these
kind of deeper issues around comfort and familiarity and
potentially also resource that have really factored in in how
you have been trying to change things and also being changed by
things. Whatever has happened for you by
the time we get to the end of April in 2026, I do feel that a
lot of you are moving on from some kind of circumstances that
you have been in the in the midst of changing or being
changed by in some really deep ways.
A lot of you have moved or are moving.
A lot of you have really changed or have experienced major change
in your family dynamics, definitely parents, ancestors,
but also partners, children, you know, really factor in.
There's roles that are shifting and ways that you are kind of
waking up to your own power to create these circumstances and
conditions in your life. And this year you move into a
new chapter and now what you are innovating, what you are
changing and liberating is yourself and your own
expression. And I think that a lot of you
are ready to, I don't know what it is, it's going to be
different for all of you, but I feel that you're ready to put
something out into the world in this way that feels like an
experiment somehow. And it could be that you're
experimenting with your voice, OK.
And like how you express yourself through speech or
through writing, because you have a lot of things going on in
the parts of your chart that have to do with speech and
writing. A lot of you could be expressing
yourself in ways that are definitely more creative and
artistic and have to do with some kind of gesture into those
directions. A lot of you are just coming
into your own natural, innate self-expression in a new and
different way. And I think you're learning a
lot about what your energy wants to do and what it is when it's
being authentic and you want to really take care of that.
And then for some of you, and this is a select group of
aquariums, there are things that are happening with your kids.
If you're a parent, for some of you potentially also if you're
educators could be happening, or if you're just involved with
young people somehow there could be something happening with them
that are really like it's, it's needing you to change.
Maybe you need to change your mind about things.
Maybe you need to see it, see the world from their perspective
a little bit more. They might be innovating, they
might be agitating, they might be rebelling.
There might be some kind of ups and downs or erratic energy with
them that ultimately kind of needs you to open your mind and
shift your perspective. And I don't know what it needs
them to do because I don't know what their signs are.
OK, that's their Natal chart horoscope.
But for you, you know, liberation is not complete
chaos. We tend to sometimes maybe like
think of things as a binary, like there's stability and then
there's freedom. But order and pattern and
stability does not have to be rigid and punitive and
controlling, right? Like on Earth, there are so many
systems that maintain stability because they flow, because they
evolve, because they cycle into one another.
Now, human beings have fucked all that up in the Anthropocene,
right? And we're leaving the Holocene
age or this period of time where the Earth had a lot of
stability. And because of human impact, our
climate systems and weather systems are becoming a lot more
erratic. And inside of that, you know,
potentially we need to innovate and consciousness shift so that
we can work well with change. But in your chart as a personal
read, I'm going to say that I feel that a lot of you are
needing to find a kind of sense of stability and your own like
systemic integrity. So it's not about chaos, but it
is about liberating. And liberation also requires you
to appreciate that there are deeper systems and checks and
balances and other kinds of stability at work or like a like
a law and order of things that is beyond a human conception of
a law or order. So like the law of nature,
right? The order of the seasons.
You know, these kinds of big ideas that you are a part of
that when you allow yourself to be in flow and to be moved and
to really pay attention to the ways that you need to change and
that you can kind of help take care of energy and life as it
changes and evolves, then you get nourished and hydrated and
supported and vitalized. But if you try to control things
too much, if you impose your will too much, then you can
stifle and thwart creative energy.
And if you completely, you know, disregard your own stability
and, like, completely surrender to chaos, it's not quite the
same as following the flow because the flow also needs you
to be, like, taking care of your material reality and kind of
internal external consciousness. I don't know if any of that made
sense. If it came out a little bit
soupy for me. Maybe it's the Uranus in Gemini
of it all because Gemini rules speech and Uranus is
unpredictable. Anyway, Uranus comes into Gemini
in the first couple days of Taurus season, and Venus enters
into Gemini with Uranus, and Venus is the ruler of Taurus.
Now we're coming out of Aries season.
Aries holds your third House of communication and there were
some really powerful alignments happening in Aries season.
And if you go back and listen to your Aries season reading, I
talked to you about like being really conscious of your mind
and your speech because both of them are extremely powerful.
And then as we move into tourist season, I feel that a lot of you
have done, have done something with your mind and with your
speech that is incredibly powerful and you've set
something up for yourself that now like goes into motion.
So I don't know what this is because it's going to be
different for all of you, but some of you have been trying to
free yourself from some kind of situation with home, family,
stability, foundation, maybe resources.
And like it was finally clearing in the end of Aries season.
And then we had a notorious season and you have these new
ideas, you've had the conversations that you need to
have. Things are decided, there's new
energy, you've catalyzed, you've instigated, and now things
shift. Some of you have had powerful
new ideas and you want to start something and it feels very
creative. And this season is really
exciting because it's stirring up all of these ideas and it's
getting your creative juices flowing.
Some of you are activated and your activation wants to do
something, and so you're expressing yourself in new ways
and it feels a little bit like you don't have much filter right
now. And that could be helpful and a
great thing. And for some of you, it's also a
place where you want to be cautious because Aquarius has a
lot of power these days and you don't want to misuse your power.
And we always can misuse our power.
It's fully within each of our choices and jurisdictions for
all signs to misuse our power. Obviously, when we're working
with horoscope astrology, we're working with 112th of a
potential and there's billions of people on Earth.
So there's all different kinds of aquariums.
There is an aquarium collective that's resonating with current
astrology in ways that are totally about war and
destruction and annihilating people and like trying to
control things. And I don't think that's the
aquarium collective that sticks around for embodied astrology
horoscopes. I think the collective that
resonates with me is the collective that is really here
for the future, for humanitarianism, for
consciousness shift and radical awakening.
Deep personal responsibility for collective effort and collective
consciousness for personal responsibility.
And if you resonate with that, then I'm going to say that
tourist season feels to me like a period of time when a lot of
you are, you're accessing something that feels so
foundational and unique inside of you that I feel this is a
heart longing, starting to manifest type of vibe.
And let me explain that better because it it didn't come out so
great. So as a bodily somatic
intuitive, the feeling that I have for you when I TuneIn with
your tourist season charts is this swell in my chest area.
And it feels exciting and it feels like there's a lot of
possibility and new possibilities.
I feel that my mind is going in a lot of different directions
and I feel I'm on the edge of fear and excitement.
And those two energies are very similar because they're both
arousal patterns in the body. And so I can also feel the need
to like really focus and be determined in my consciousness
to focus on what I want to be putting my energy towards.
And so I don't want to indulge the fears while I also want to
remain in the realms of awareness, consciousness and
reason. And I need to be paying
attention to what's happening outside of me.
But I need to be paying attention in ways that allow me
to stay good with myself because there is this feeling of I need
to really bring myself to my life right now.
And it's not really up to anybody else.
And a lot of you have had your stability impacted by other
people, maybe positively, maybe not.
But it's like, of course, we're always impacted by other people,
but regardless of what other people.
Are doing and might be doing. In your situation, you have to
really focus on yourself because if you don't and if you make it
about other people, you're misusing your energy and you're
misusing your power. So whenever a situation comes up
and it's activating for you, ask yourself, what's my role in
this? What is this doing for me?
What is it illuminating in my own energy?
What patterns are already present here?
How am I already primed to react and respond?
Is that what I actually want to do?
Does that serve the growth that I am here consciously wanting
and working towards right now? If not, then how can I be
present with those patterns? Not try to suppress them or hide
them away, but really call them forth into my consciousness so
that I can transform, form them and be liberated inside of them.
And this is the place where liberation leads to greater
stability. That's what I was trying to get
to 1,000,000 years ago. So liberation and stability
actually go hand in hand when we free ourselves from unconscious
bondage with ways of thinking, behaving, relating, perceiving
the world that are coming through dominator mindsets,
oppressive systems, trauma patterns, etcetera.
When we free ourselves from those patterns, mind states,
behavioral patterns, etcetera, then we we have more potential
in our own energy. We are liberated, but we also
become a lot more stable because our minds and behaviors and
relationships aren't being hijacked by patterns that are in
and of themselves, unstable. So many.
I'm just like feeling my own mental process as I'm reading
for you. And I'm like, this thing, that
thing, this thing, that thing. Am I getting the words out
right? And maybe this is part of how
Gemini season is, excuse me, how tourist season and all this new
Gemini energy is going to feel a little bit to you guys because
Uranus has a long transit coming up in Gemini again, seven years.
And this is about creativity and self-expression and new ideas
and a lot of you it's about communicating and connecting and
networking and collaborating in new ways.
But there's also an adjustment period, like there's a whole
process that you need to go through that is going to teach
you how to work well with this influence.
And some of it is about getting the words to come out right and
getting your ideas. It's happening for me right now
because you have so much happening in your consciousness
and in your mind, and it's happening rapidly.
And so getting that into a tangible, embodied, verbalized
creation is not easy. And you got to slow down, and
you have to be with the energy and do your best to ride the
wave. And this is the confluence of
Taurus, which is the season we're still in as Venus, the
ruler of Taurus, moves in with Uranus into Gemini.
Hi, I'm sorry to interrupt your horoscopes but I have a question
to ask you. Have you noticed how many
popular contemporary astrologers are women or AFAB or queer
creative people? I have, and it's made me so
curious as to why that is. My name is Alicia and I'm the
community coordinator here at Embodied Astrology, and on
Saturday, June 13th, I'm excited to interview Renee Sills, Alice
Barkley, Cat, and Blair Bogan from Sister Bright Astrology
about their work as queer astrologers and artists.
What I love most about the astrologers that I follow today,
and these three folks in particular, is that they're
weirdos, and I mean that as high compliment.
They're all unconventional people with brilliant minds.
They're witches, healers, and tricksters who are translating
this ancient language of astrology in ways that are
deeply supportive and orienting for the times that we're in
right now. If you're here listening to an
embodied astrology horoscope, I'm guessing you feel similarly.
If you do, I'd like to invite you to join us on Saturday, June
13th. We'll be exploring inherent
queerness and queering practices for astrology, blending
astrology with other skill sets, interests and methodologies, and
the power and potential of this technology when it's placed in
the hands of the people. I'm really interested in knowing
more about how we can leverage astrology for our personal and
collective liberation. So if these lines of inquiry
interest you too, I hope you'll join us for what is sure to be a
fun and fascinating conversation.
You'll also be invited to ask your own questions and join in
on the fun. You can find more information
about the event and a link to register in the show notes.
I hope to see you there. OK, so we have a full moon on
May 1st is a full Moon in Scorpio and then we have a new
moon on May 16th in Taurus. The Taurus Scorpio axis holds
the earth and the heaven of the chart, the roots and the sky of
the Aquarius charts. So the fixed cross is activated,
at least for you, in relationship to these two signs
in a big way. And this is a season then that
is very powerful for you. There is a kind of big season of
change that a lot of you are concentrated on.
And at the full Moon on May 1st, there is emphasis on how you do
what you want to do in the world and with your life based on
where you are right now and what you have access to and what you
feel is your own capacities and limitations.
The balance between personal, private and public or more
social experience is highlighted at this time as well.
And I feel that a lot of you are really trying to gather your
resources so that you can do something or be someone.
And gathering your resources is also about tuning in with your
own foundation and security. Pluto is stationing retrograde
in your sign just a couple days after that full moon, and it
will be in its station point, very active, very powerful
throughout tourist season and at the full moon, very powerfully
located. And when outer planets
especially are stationing, it's kind of like they're just
drilling their energy into a particular place in the Zodiac.
So I will say that for those of you that have early Aquarius
placements, you definitely want to be paying attention to this.
Pluto is stationing retrograde at 5° of Aquarius.
This feels like a moment when many of you are committing and
recommitting to something that you know is true for you.
It feels like you are pulling your energy inside in some kind
of way, claiming what's yours again in this, in this
foundational way that will allow you to express and to put out
into the world. And so this is a concentration
and internal organization and centering kind of sensation.
And then by the new moon on May 16th, there's a very powerful
alignment for you coming in in Taurus.
This is an alignment between Mercury, the asteroid series,
and the Sun. Mercury is traveling direct.
It's at its quickest speed as it comes into contact with the sun
right before the new moon. And there are definitely some
big themes here around the necessity for equal give and
take, for seasonal and cyclical awareness.
Basically, it's not summer all the time in everybody's life all
the time, right? So there are seasons of
abundance. There are seasons where it's
more scarce or fallow. There are seasons of activity,
there are seasons of dormancy and rest, and there are seasons
of connection and seasons of disconnection, expansion,
contraction, etcetera. And some of you may be in some
kind of process right now that is about how to work well with
that type of energy. So it could be how do you go out
into the world and then come home and go back into your own
energy? How do you balance what you
externalize with how you give back to yourself and what you
internalize? For some of you, there may be
relationships that are coming and going a little bit and there
could be some feelings around that.
How you make space for this flux of intimacy sometimes and then
distance at other times. And then there's also this
sense, I think, of you recognizing that your own needs
are needs that have cycles and seasons in them.
And so whatever you might be starting or getting involved in
right now, you want to make sure that it supports you in your own
foundation and in your own stability to move out and then
move back in and be active and then inactive or engage and then
disengage or something like that.
As we move out of the New Moon and towards the beginning of
Gemini season on May 20th, Mercury is entering into Gemini
conjuncting with Uranus. There's lots of things going on
and I just feel that Aquarius has tons of ideas.
So I'm going to wrap up this season ahead reading by saying
that I know a lot of Aquariums out there are visionaries.
I know a number of you, and you're also freaking smart and
you really have a lot to offer to the earth at this time.
I think a lot of you are innately creative and naturally
artists. Many of you really have
something that you need to communicate right now, and it's
about your ideas. It's about your perspectives.
It might need to come through in writing and talking and
storytelling and being direct. I don't know what your personal
style is, but my hope for you this season is that you start to
really believe in the power of your own own voice and personal
expression, that you recognize that you're here at this time to
be a leader for the collective, that there are many leaders at
this time that are very important for the collective.
So your leadership needs to be about power with and not about
power over. And the more that you can
collaborate, the more you can feel empowered in your own
expression. And these are the types of
collaborations and personal expressions that you want to be
reaching for and cultivating right now.
You want to be with groups and and friends and partnerships and
romances and hanging out with your kids or young people in
ways that are about really honoring the collective voice.
Everybody has an important role in the evolution of it all, and
everybody's part of the story makes the story complete.
And so when you lend yourself to those kinds of energies and
orientations, you become personally strengthened because
when you feel yourself in a space of belonging and
connectivity, this really helps boost your self esteem.
It vitalizes and energizes you. It gives you a sense of hope and
you feel your own power. And then that allows you to
express yourself uniquely also in ways that then encourage
other people to join with their unique expressions.
So this is what I have for you for tourist season in 2026,
Aquarius. I hope any or all of it feels
helpful or at least entertaining.
If it does, please like, comment, subscribe, share with
your friends, and support me to keep doing this work that I
really love and offering these free readings every single
month. You can also TuneIn with your
2026 Year Ahead reading. That is a reading where we look
at the big picture arc of this year and also connect this year
with the past and the future. And those year ahead readings
are about 3 hours long. They really go deep into what's
happening for Aquarius, not just in 2026, but again in this
keystone moment. So we are looking into the next
two decades in some ways. So I want to close your reading
today with one card from the Lineages of Change.
This is the last month I'll be working with this deck in 2026.
Such a powerful guidance comes through this deck, and I will
link it in the show notes and encourage you to check it out.
And especially as we collectively move into Uranus in
Gemini, what wants to come through for aquariums?
What is the most helpful energy for Aquarius at this time?
Uranus moving into their 5th house and Pluto stationing
direct in their sign. OK, so 2 cards came out for you.
One popped out. One came out intuitively for me.
So the one that popped out was the Seven of Air.
This is 7 of Swords in a traditional deck.
Often times this is a card that's about line cheating,
stealing, right? Like doing things in ways that
are not really above board and maybe like misalignment in terms
of ethics. So let's just start with that
and say that Gemini energy can be energy that is like gossipy,
that it has its own kind of relationship with quote UN quote
truth that can be very flexible sometimes.
And we all have that capacity, right, to lie and cheat and
steal. And we can do that with
ourselves and we can do that with others.
And sometimes we can do that very unconsciously.
And so just in a very basic general way, I'm going to say
that this card coming through for this particular season and
what's been happening for you really pulls my focus again to
how are you expressing yourself? And are you expressing yourself
in ways that really resonate very deeply with your heart As
for the greatest good of all involved?
And lying, cheating, stealing when we do it is often coming
from places of insecurity and lack of trust in our own
capacities and choices, lack of actual self love and care for
our own energy. It does result in a kind of
negative karma that we're going to carry around, at least on a
sole psychological, interpersonal level.
And it's probably not what we want to be engaging with.
If you are dealing with people who are lying, cheating,
stealing, part of how you want to work with that is by tuning
in with your own ethical practice, loving yourself,
trusting your own sensitivities towards how people are behaving.
If you feel that something is off, you want to communicate
about it right away. And I think a lot of you, you
know, you're in this era of your life where your communication,
your personal expression is really important.
But you also want to be communicating and expressing
yourself in ways that, again, invite other people to connect
and collaborate with you. And so how do we createspace
together so that nobody has to lie or cheat or steal?
Because all of us inside of systems of oppression are going
to be doing that sometimes because it's the survival and
coping mechanism, especially when we don't feel safe in
relationships. So I want to say, you know, do
what you can do to create safer spaces for yourself and others.
And then I also want to say that sometimes the Seven of swords or
the Seven of Air can be about taking something and using it
differently. So like in the Rider Waite deck,
if you're familiar with that kind of classic image, you see
this guy stealing a bunch of swords from the enemy's camp and
he kind of looks like sneaky, you know, as he's doing it.
And it's basically saying like he's fighting in a way that is
not direct by by taking away some of their power.
And who knows what he's going to do with those swords.
I like to imagine that he's doing some kind of project.
Like was it the artist? Was his name Pedro Reyes?
This Mexican artist did this amazing project called Palace
for Pistoles that like he collected all these guns that
people brought, you know, and like willingly kind of let go
of. And then he, what's the word?
He, he like melted them down, I forget the word for that, you
know, and made the metal liquid and then he turned them into
shovels and had everybody plant trees and, and like, you know,
put that energy into collective growth.
So I imagine that the guy who's stealing all the swords is doing
something like that. And I do feel for Aquarius that
there is this way that a lot of you in 2026 are pissed and like
you have this warrior energy, but your warrior energy needs
you to do something different and needs you to be creative
about it and not unethical. So I don't know what that means
for you, but maybe it's about time for you to take something
that could be used for harm and transform it and work with it so
that it can be used for growth. Now, the other card that came
out for you is the six of water or 6 of cups that came out in
the reverse. This is traditionally a card of
nostalgia and like, really thinking sweet things about
people and allowing ourselves to be in the sweetness, you know,
to really like, nurture and nourish the part of ourselves
that just is like, oh, you know, cuddly and warm and nostalgic
and sentimental. But it did come out in the
reverse. And So what I feel with this is
the need actually for you to allow yourself to see the beauty
and the preciousness and the sweetness of your life right now
and to remember the good times, like to remember actually what
you really love and what you really care about.
And so the two cards coming out together does feel like really
skillful use of your mental energy and your emotional
relational energy. It's about working with your
minds to focus on what you love and what you care about, and
gratitude and reciprocity and appreciation.
Remembering what's sweet and remembering what's good.
And then also changing and allowing yourself to be moved by
change, particularly where you have frustration and anger,
outrage or intensity, and you want to do something with it.
And letting your love and your appreciation for life help you
to do something new and different.
And this is so much of what I feel in your chart right now,
with Taurus being at the root of your chart and Taurus being a
Venus ruled sign. And really with Taurus at the
root of the chart, Aquarius is a lover of the Earth and someone
who really wants to help channel sweetness and care and
sentimentality into the places and the resources that are
shared where life is abundant because it is generous and it is
thriving because it is diverse. And I think that a lot of you
are also really driven and you are really compelled to protect
life, like whatever that means for you and take care of it and
take care of what you what you love.
But you want to do it in ways that are not about meeting fire
with fire or like, you know, what is it an eye for An eye
makes the world blind. Like you're not trying to do
that. You're trying to do things in
ways that are maybe a bit more creative.
OK, OK, let me know if that resonates.
Aquarius, I appreciate you so much.
I am wishing you all the best in Taurus season and beyond.
Stick around with me for a couple of minutes.
We've got some things coming up here at Embodied Astrology and I
want to let you know about it. And I look forward to seeing you
next month for Gemini season in a new and different sweater
because I will not be back in the past anymore, but recording
for you from further in the future.
Until then, Aquarius, bye for now.
Hey. Don't go away.
There's more I want to tell you. First off, I'm incredibly
excited to say that I'll be offering another round of my
Astrology Foundations Practitioners program.
Your chart is body starting at the end of August this year.
This. Year long in depth experiential
program teaches you to read, interpret and translate
astrological symbolism through multi sensory awareness.
It teaches you to access and cultivate your embodied
intuition and communicate about astrology in ways that are
directly meaningful for those whose charts you're reading.
I only offer practitioner programs every few years, so if
you've been waiting for a chance to learn astrology with me, this
is it. Check.
Out the link in the show notes for program dates and more
information. Second, if you feel excited and
energized by the ways I deliver astrology and weave it with
embodied awareness, I think you'll love my weekly class
Somatic Space. Every Monday or every Monday of
every season. You can join me live from 8:00
to 9:30 AM Pacific, or catch the recording when it's convenient
for you. And start your week off with a
gentle, accessible mind, body, heart, and energy practice
specially designed to support you and your life through the
astrological weather patterns of the week ahead.
Third, last month we launched a new monthly series on the
Astrology of Spiritual Warriorship with Aziz Besants.
Aziz is a somatic therapist, cultural worker, organizer,
performer and astrologer and he's joined in collaboration
with guest facilitators from Minneapolis, Palestine and other
sites of resistance around the world.
With Saturn and Neptune commencing their era defining
cycle in the sign of Aries. This year we're being invited
into a spiritual initiation rooted in the realities of
occupation and colonial violence in our world and communities,
and rooted in collective resistance to it.
This is spirituality which remembers the past, is fluid yet
steadfast in meeting the present, and is not only willing
to dream wildly into the future we most desire, but fight tooth
and nail for it. This series invites us to
strengthen and evolve land based spiritual practices that affirm
commitment to life and relationships as core components
of sustainability, community, resilience, and collective
power. In last month's session, Aziz
and Nova Mutangji laid a foundation for the series by
working with Aries planetary ruler Mars as a guide and
ancestor who shows us how to build heat as the basis for
action from the depths of the soil upward.
This month's session, which takes place on Tuesday, April
28th with Aziz and Alana Kwok, will explore Neptune's
relationship with the dream state and pineal gland.
We'll practice finding body states that open different ways
of seeing and knowing, work with impulse as intelligence, learn
to differentiate vigilance from deeper knowing, and drop into a
navigation system that is ancient, ancestral, and guided
by spirit. All sessions in the series are
available by recording if you can't attend live, and you can
drop into a single session or get a discount by signing up for
the whole series. Finally, as you already heard
from my colleague Alicia, on June 13th, I'll be joining two
of my favorite astrologers, Blair Bogan and Alice Sparkly
Cat, for a conversation where we'll be talking about
cultivating queer creative astrological practices and using
our craft as a tool for collective liberation.
This conversation is open to the public and we would love to
share it with you. You can find more information on
everything I just mentioned and more at embodiedastrology.com or
in the show notes below. And last thing, if you're still
here and you love this work, please do drop a comment like
hype, subscribe and share it with a friend.
It really does help us out and helps us to continue these free
offerings. Thanks so much for tuning in.
