Good morning,
As I shared in my email to my subscribers:
Did you notice anything new and unexpected over the last few days?
Why do I ask?
There was a beautiful transit between Neptune and Uranus on Thursday and Friday that may have given you a vision for something new to come in. I know I did…I hope you did too. This week, paying attention to your intuition will be especially important with the movement Saturn, Mercury, and Uranus are making.
On Tuesday you were the first to see the launch of my new Mercury’s Wisdom offering.
My Master’s in Education was focused on Multiple Intelligences theory, and combining that with how we use Mercury in our charts feels so important—and helpful—this time of year.
My thought process (since Mercury represents our thoughts and communication) was to create something that would help both parents with their kiddos in school and adults too.
I kept it in simple, easy-to-understand words—no astrology knowledge needed—and broke it down in a very practical way. To check it out, click HERE
✨ The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse is happening next Sunday, September 7. I’ll share more about that in next week’s email. To support you in the lead-up, I’m hosting a Stars and Cards Night on Wednesday, September 3 at 7 pm CT (8 pm ET / 5 pm PT).
Here’s what usually happens at this event:
Mini Astrology Reading showing where the Eclipse or Virgo Season lands in your chart
Asking questions answered through Oracle Cards
Discovering blocks and releasing them for the entire group
If you’re craving clarity, I’d love for you to join me. Details are at the bottom of this post. ✨
In any case, let’s take a look at the week ahead!

Picking up where we left off in the email…
Under the Sagittarius Moon we had all weekend, Saturn quietly shifts back into Pisces while we sleep. This can feel like resolving “energy leaks” or resetting boundaries while he visits. You may also notice callbacks to earlier in the year.
In our charts, Saturn represents the “lessons” we are here to learn in this lifetime—the ones we don’t really get to skip. It’s kind of like when the principal walks into the classroom looking for someone: you just have to go and face the music. That doesn’t mean it’s always bad or traumatic, though.
For example, during my own Saturn Return (when Saturn in the sky comes back to where it was in your chart every 27–29 years), we had our youngest child. That was a joyful time, but also one that pushed me into the next phase of life. Every seven years or so, Saturn checks in to see if you’re learning what needs to be learned. These cycles are one of the first things I explore during consultations. If you’d like to learn more, you can check out my offerings with my sliding scale HERE.
Saturn in Pisces, to me, feels like trying to build an erector set out of water vapor. Saturn loves structure, while Pisces has none! With Neptune right on Saturn’s heels—poised to re-enter Pisces on October 22—it can feel like dreams are being drawn into reality with supportive care. Since both planets are retrograde, the process may feel more like discovering howto make it happen.
Here are the key dates to help track this cycle (photos, journals, or emails are great tools for this!):
May 25: Saturn enters Aries
July 13: Saturn retrograde at 1° Aries
September 1: Saturn retrogrades into Pisces
November 28: Saturn direct at 25° Pisces
February 13, 2026: Saturn moves back into Aries through April 12, 2028
✨ I’ll be sharing in Between the Moons what area of life (house) this highlights one last time.
We’ll also have a short 6-minute Void of Course window before the Moon shifts into Capricorn at 8:44 pm CT tonight.
✨ September 2 and 3, 2025
Where the weekend and Monday felt light—or at times frustrating—with the First Quarter Moon, the next few days may feel more grounded, like “okay, now I can get to business.”
With the Moon in Capricorn and the Sun in Virgo, both earth signs, this is a very stabilizing combination. Getting things done—possibly with you in charge of making it happen—will feel natural.
The highlight of Tuesday is Mercury moving into Virgo for the next few weeks. Virgo is one of the two signs Mercury rules, and here he functions differently than in Gemini. Your thoughts and communication may feel more precise, orderly, and organized—though sometimes they could come across as overly critical. If you’ve been trying to figure something out, this is an excellent time to work on it.
🌀 Fun fact: In my Between the Moons membership, I’ll share the area of life Mercury will be moving through on September 18.
On Wednesday, you may feel pulled to get out and about, with unexpected thoughts surfacing. If you’re being pushed too hard, too fast—or find yourself frustrated—stepping outside to ground with the grass and trees can help you reset.
✨ September 4 and 5, 2025
The Moon moves into Aquarius at 5:31 am CT Thursday. The shift from Capricorn to Aquarius isn’t always dramatic since both are traditionally ruled by Saturn.
In modern astrology, Uranus co-rules Aquarius, and he’s especially strong this week, turning retrograde at 1° Gemini on Friday evening. Expect the unexpected over the next few days and into the weekend.
In general, under an Aquarius Moon you may notice your thoughts and feelings leaning toward the future, focused on the betterment of society, and wanting to spend time with friends. With Uranus shifting direction, these themes can feel stronger than usual—more internal to process rather than something you’re eager to display outwardly.
These two days can feel full of energy and motivation, with Mars squaring Jupiter. If you’ll be on the road, stay especially mindful—like a new driver—of cars around you, and take extra care with sharp objects.
We also have a long Void of Course Moon Friday from 3:51 pm CT until 10:54 am CT Saturday, setting the stage for the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse this weekend.
Reminder: these times are…
✅ Great for:
– Meditating
– Finishing up existing projects
– Taking walks
– Resting or napping
– Creating a to-do list
🚫 Maybe skip
:– Starting something brand new
– Making major decisions
– Being hard on yourself 🤪
🌕 P.S. I’ll be sharing more Full Moon reflections inside Between the Moons and diving deeper into the eclipse in next week’s post!
Until next week!
