Are malefics really that evil, or have you simply not accepted that hardship has just as much of a place in the human experience as joy and ease ?
Seeing Jupiter and Venus in the sky is unexplainable! It makes my heart sing with joy and I feel soo excited
In our First Nations traditions (the first astronomers) Venus is the sister of the Sun and wife to Jupiter. Lovely to see them so close. @davidbflower.bsky.social @astroroyalscot.bsky.social
A late-May garden celebration, with flowers, bees and butterflies. 🌸
Pluto in my 3h squaring Mars in my 6h with Uranus sextiling my 6h ruler lol and Mars sextiling my chart ruler! I think I’ll lay low the next few days.
I think I can always sense the void moon, they really make me want to just do nothing. Could this be my chart ruler being in cancer? (And my naturally lazy Taurus sun? lol)
Made my first herbal tincture in class today: cleavers! It was great! I could use some lymph support so this was perfect.
Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto will all be at 4º of their respective signs, an alignment that has not been seen before in recorded history! 👀
Venus about to square Saturn will be interesting as a night chart with Libra rising in the solar return chart lol and it conjuncts my natal chart ruler. Sure.
Alchemilla, the botanical name of Lady’s Mantle, derives from an Arabic word meaning “the alchemist’s plant”. The sparkling droplets gathered from its leaves were once thought magical; an aphrodisiac, and even a lotion said to preserve youth and beauty forever! #FairytaleTuesday
1H profection year with Jupiter as the ruler and my SR chart has Venus as the ruler 💖🤞🏻
Lily-of-the-valley is the birth flower of May. A legend tells of a nightingale’s enduring love for this flower, returning each year to sing to his belovèd, & falling silent as her blooms fade away. For this reason the lily-of-the-valley came to symbolise the return of happiness.
My solar return chart! Happy to have Jupiter in Cancer. The 7h looks interesting with Saturn and Mars there lol also interesting to have Moon opposite Uranus.
Can’t make it to a bookstore but still want to celebrate Indie Bookstore Day? You know we’ve got you covered with free shipping all weekend long 🥳📚
Uranus returns to Gemini for the next 7 years. We leave behind the Uranus in Taurus era that began in 2018 and saw changes in ecology, climate crisis, food supply, our sense and maintenance of beauty standards, and much more. 1/2
This Taurus season, I want you to remember that you might be ready for more than you think you are—you just need to follow your own pace.
In April fresh green growth emerges from fern plants. These curled fronds are called “fiddleheads” for their resemblance to the scroll carved at the head of a violin, shaped as a decorative spiral known as a volute. Ferns are said to bring good luck and symbolise eternal youth.
Today is #InternationalPlantAppreciationDay, a time to celebrate the plants around us. Spring has always been my favourite season, and the apple trees in my garden are just coming into blossom, one of my most loved sights. What flowers do you look forward to in April and May?
lol drifted off while listening to an Astrology for Health workshop by Kira Sutherland and woke up as she was saying “sleep is underrated for the immune system”… as I’m currently fighting through a cold.
Tree ferns, some of the oldest plants, embody endurance and primeval times. Their unfurling fronds, known as the koru in Māori culture, symbolise new life and renewal. Long linked with magic and protection, they stand as living bridges between the ancient past and the present.
I’ve been seeing Venus so bright in the evening sky for the last week, it’s amazing. Like a single shimmering diamond in the dusk. I literally clap and say “hey, girl!” And tell her how gorgeous she is.
12h year is coming to an end but it was definitely 12h-y. Very isolating. Ruled by Mars too!
THE SOLAR ECLIPSE SEEN FROM THE MOON BY ARTEMIS II!!! THEY WERE THE FIRST HUMANS TO HAVE THIS VIEW!!
![Earthset captured through the Orion spacecraft window at 6:41 p.m. EDT, April 6, 2026, during the Artemis II crew’s flyby of the Moon. A muted blue Earth with bright white clouds sets behind the cratered lunar surface. The dark portion of Earth is experiencing nighttime. On Earth’s day side, swirling clouds are visible over the Australia and Oceania region. In the foreground, Ohm crater has terraced edges and a flat floor interrupted by central peaks. Central peaks form in complex craters when the lunar surface, liquefied on impact, splashes upwards during the crater’s formation.

Me: I probably don’t have to worry about Mars/Saturn on April 19th, what’s all the hype. Mars and Saturn on April 19: exactly squaring my ascendant ruler and my Uranus. Me:

Want to plan travel to Europe and Mars will likely be in my 9h lol how can I convince the whole group to go after July lol
April’s full moon rises on 1st April 2026. It is known as the “Pink Moon”, not for its colour, but for the flowering of bright pink Phlox subulata, the creeping phlox that blooms across North America at this time of year. It is also called the Budding Moon, as spring now unfolds.
Soon we may see 1 million more satellites in Earth's orbit. The consequences to astronomy would be devastating. Fighting for a fair & sustainable use of space for astronomy and humanity — that's Betty Kioko's job as ESO’s Institutional Affairs Officer 👉 www.eso.org/public/blog/... 🔭 🧪 #DarkSkies
As the Sun transits Saturn, I want you to remember that your fatigue is not your personal opponent but an ancient protector of your vitality.
