Good morning, dear weavers
Today’s astrology feels like a whispered echo from the future and the past—remembering what’s sacred as we rewire what’s possible. The 6 of Cups (Remembrance) from the Red Threads deck invites us to ground in memory, lineage, and soul promise… even as the air crackles with radical new blueprints.
Like this: the UK has now birthed babies from three people’s DNA, using mitochondrial donation to prevent inherited disease. Science fiction? No—Age of Air innovation. And this shift speaks to today’s square between Pluto and Hekate, guardian of thresholds and transitions. A new generation crosses through, seeded from multiple lineages.
Meanwhile, Mercury stations retrograde at 15° Leo—a world point—with the Sabian symbol: “Sunshine just after a storm.” No better image for Mercury’s reversal than light breaking through chaos. This retrograde may not be gentle, but it could be clarifying. Sunshine that sears through illusion.
And that Erisian Moon? It’s got something to say.
A flurry of fiery aspects ignite tonight:
🌒 Last Quarter Moon at 25° Aries: square the Sun in Cancer → a crisis in consciousness
🌑 Moon conjunct Eris (25°), Okyrhoe (26°), and Chiron (27°) → revolution, vision, and the ache of awakening
☀️ Sun square Eris → don’t be shocked if someone flips a metaphorical (or literal) table
♀️ Venus sextile Ceres → nurture your voice, your kin, your chosen memory
🌀 Uranus opposes Black Moon Lilith → primal truth meets future shock
Plus, Black Moon Lilith enters Sagittarius, igniting truth-telling fire around justice, freedom, and unspoken mythologies. What have we hidden in plain sight?
It’s a day for sacred disruption—to remember who we are, mid-storm and sunshine alike.
A GREAT day to attend one of the many Good Trouble protests being held today to honor the life of John Lewis. Look for one near you! I will be manning a progressive caucus table at the Salt lake City one. Eris is good trouble.
Go stir the cauldron, speak the unspeakable, and remember your wild light.
You were never meant to fit their mold.
