Hello hello, friends! On a week dominated by Mercury (more on that momentarily), I have some very exciting, ~Mercurial~ news: I’m thrilled to announce that my next book, It’s All Magic, is available for preorder!
I wrote this book while I was pregnant with Talula, so I’ve been holding it very close to my heart—but now, she’s finally ready to meet you! This book is modeled after a daily devotional: it contains 365-entries, enabling you to build a spiritual practice over an entire year. Of course, you can also use this book as an oracle, where you flip to a random page to see what insight is illuminated. Or, you can devour it quickly and binge all the wisdom you need. Like everything I create, it’s a choose-your-own-adventure experience.
As you may know, preorders are incredibly important for authors (bookstores look at preorder sales to determine whether they want to carry the title), so your support is really, really meaningful! The book comes out in less than a month; be sure to preorder now!
We’re officially in Libra Season, and Mercury—the planet of communication and expression—is soon to join the Sun in this airy domain. But, before it does, Mercury has a few more stops to make as it rounds out its journey through its domicile. On Tuesday, September 24, Mercury forms a trine to Uranus in Taurus at 27º, creating an atmosphere ripe for breakthroughs and surprises. Mercury in Virgo thrives on logic and detail, while Uranus in Taurus seeks to disrupt the status quo and introduce innovative ideas that establish a different type of permanence. Together, they invite us to think outside the box and approach familiar problems with fresh perspectives.
This is a time when flashes of insight can lead to profound shifts in our understanding, so stay curious and open to the unexpected. Whether it’s a new solution to an old problem or a sudden change in plans, trust that these shifts are leading you toward greater clarity and freedom.
But just as we start to feel grounded in this newfound awareness, Wednesday brings a different kind of energy. Mercury, now at 28º Virgo, opposes Neptune at 28º Pisces, casting a fog over our previously clear and electric minds. This transit blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, making it difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. It’s a day when intuition and imagination take the lead, but they can also mislead us if we’re not careful. Avoid jumping to conclusions or making major decisions under this influence; instead, allow yourself to drift a little. This is a moment to dream, to envision, and to explore the deeper currents of your psyche without feeling the need to anchor everything in the material world. Embrace the ambiguity and let yourself wander through the mist, knowing that clarity will return soon enough.
By the time Thursday comes around, Mercury reaches the critical 29º of Virgo and forms a trine with Pluto at 29º Capricorn, an aspect that digs deep and unearths hidden truths. As I discuss often, the anaretic degree, or 29º, carries a sense of urgency and intensity, asking us to confront the final lessons of the sign before moving on. This trine between Mercury and Pluto is all about transformation through understanding. It’s a powerful moment for research, introspection, and deep conversations that reveal the underlying patterns in our lives. If there’s something you’ve been avoiding or an issue you’ve been unwilling to confront, now is the time to face it head-on. With Pluto’s influence, there’s potential for profound healing and empowerment through this process.
Later that same day, Mercury leaves Virgo and enters Libra, shifting the energy from analytical precision to harmonious communication. In Libra, Mercury seeks balance, diplomacy, and fairness in all interactions. After the intense scrutiny and profound revelations of the previous days, this transit offers a welcome reprieve. It’s time to consider other perspectives, to find common ground, and to approach conversations with an open heart and mind. It’s time to integrate. As we transition from the earthy, detail-oriented realm of Virgo into the airy, relational world of Libra, we’re encouraged to integrate what we’ve learned and share it in ways that foster connection and understanding.
And don’t forget, babies. It’s still Eclipse Season. We have a Solar Eclipse coming in hot next week, so if things still feel a little wacky… well, it’s because they definitely are.
