Want the replay of the New Moon Circle? Both options come with a write up - one comes with a video too! — Alice in Wonderland Statue featuring the Cheshire Cat, Central Park New York City

Hello!

Good Morning *|FNAME|*!

Good Morning!

Our trip to New York City for my birthday was absolutely magical. From exploring that incredible city to taking in the beauty of the Hudson River Valley and Sleepy Hollow—and finding the Alice in Wonderland statue in Central Park (pictured above!)—it was an experience we’ll never forget.

In addition to all the excitement New York City brought, I also experienced a Progressed New Moon on October 24. What does that mean? In astrology, we use progressions to understand the evolving energy within us—similar to how we interpret the movement of the planets in the sky above.

During a consultation, one of the things I always look at is where your Progressed Moon is in your chart. It has its own 27–30 year rhythm, much like the monthly Moon Cycle we follow in the New Moon Circles. A Progressed New Moon marks a powerful time of new beginnings, intentions, and growth—a “reset button” that launches a new 30-year emotional and spiritual cycle. It reveals the tone of your current life chapter and offers insight into your evolving emotional needs and areas of focus.

It feels so powerful to have this happen in the same week as the Collective New Moon.

✨ If you’d like to learn more about your own Progressed Moon and what’s happening in your chart, I’d love to explore it with you in a consultation. (Be sure to sign up for the WIS Rewards Program first so you can start earning points!)

The New Moon arrived just after we returned home, and it was such a joy to celebrate with everyone who joined the New Moon Circle—both inside Between the Moons and those who joined from outside the membership. This New Moon feels so lovely after all the intensity of Eclipse Season, doesn’t it?

If you missed it, you can still purchase the replay in two different ways through my Shop.

Full Replay with Write up - Includes the video replay and a detailed written guide. Cost $35
Write Up only - Written guide from the circle including a breakdown of the cycle, oracle/tarot spread, and more $13

On to the week ahead shall we?

✨ October 27 and 28, 2025

Capricorn start to the week can lead to a lot of things getting done and feeling good about it too!

Continuing from our email:

The start of our workweek can feel focused and driven, and as you accomplish things, it may feel really good under this Capricorn Moon. Capricorn energy seeks the wins that last, while the Scorpio Sun helps our egos dig deep to make that happen. This combination supports career-minded efforts, especially in areas that require strategy and insight—like finance, law enforcement, psychology, or research.

On Tuesday, this focus may intensify with a beautiful aspect between Mars and Jupiter. This natural, flowing connection blends Mars’s drive for action with Jupiter’s expansive optimism. It’s energy that can be used to pursue goals in your emotional and domestic life (with Jupiter currently in Cancer). Since this aspect perfects while many of us are sleeping, your dreams might offer inspiration—or you might wake up Monday or Tuesday already feeling that extra boost of motivation.

✨ October 29 and 30, 2025

Late Tuesday at 10:55 p.m. CT, the Moon moves into Aquarius, drawing our focus toward technology, community, and the future.

At 11:20 a.m. CT on Wednesday, we reach the First Quarter Moon at 6° of Aquarius. You may feel a pull between your individuality and your connection to others. These themes could link back to the Aquarius New Moon on January 29, 2025—offering a chance to take meaningful action toward balance. If tension arises, return to your breath or talk things out with a trusted friend.

The mind may feel busy Wednesday morning as Mercury enters Sagittarius, nearing the degree where he’ll soon station retrograde. (If you haven’t already, check out my 3-Step Retrograde Activation Workbook to learn how to prepare! HERE.) While Mercury moves through Sagittarius, thoughts and conversations become more open-minded, adventurous, and curious. You may feel drawn to interesting new ideas—or even to learning something entirely new.

Over the coming days, Mercury will oppose Uranus (expect the unexpected in both life and thought!) and form a beautiful sextile to Pluto on Thursday, bringing opportunities for transformation and fresh perspectives.

In the Between the Moons Membership I’ll be sharing which area of life Mercury is activating for each rising sign to help personalize the story.

Meanwhile, Mars forms a supportive aspect with Saturn on Wednesday, echoing Mercury’s themes and strengthening your ability to make steady progress toward long-term goals.

✨ October 31, 2025

As we close out the week, the Moon drifts into Pisces—a reminder to have healthy ways to escape if you start feeling overwhelmed. With both the Sun and Moon in water signs, emotions can run deep—sometimes a lot! If tears come, let them. This is a gentle, intuitive end to the workweek and a dreamy start to the weekend.

There’s also a hint of “expect the unexpected” in the air, adding to the heightened energy of Halloween. If things feel intense, move your body intuitively, listen to music, or unwind with a favorite movie. Sometimes letting yourself flow with the current is the most healing thing you can do.

Until next week 🌙
