Venus In Retrograde

It’s lashing rain —and the eclipse approaches—but my new book arrived in the mail today! It’s called Rise & Align and it’s about how to use ritual to make your days more magical. Its rituals draw from the deep past: Renaissance magicians, ancient Greek occult traditions, plus a healthy dose of alchemical materialism (so if you’re interested in magicians of yore this book is for you). If you’d like to find out more, click link 🔗 ⬆️

Happy eclipse & happy full moon 💫🌙🌕❤️

A pic of me from yesterday, looking like a Sun Bride about to be sacrificed to the void of the eclipse. Had so much fun watching the transit from the hills in Barcelona with a lovely new group of friends. Amazing. I hope I didn’t damage my retinas from staring into the whorl of the eclipse 🤕🤕. It was worth it tho. Thank you Barcelona for hosting an amazing event.

💘Venus in Libra Moodboard 💘

They say “Virginia is for lovers,” but I’m going to quibble with that claim and assert instead that Libra is. Ruled by Venus (planet of love, beauty, and desire), Libra lords over marriage, crushes, partnerships, and significant others.

Right now we’ve got extra reason to pay attention: Venus is in Libra until September 10th. Libra is Venus’s home sign, so anything that falls under her purview — love, beauty, connection — gets an extra blessing during this window.

If you are lucky enough to be born with Venus in Libra. Happy Venus birthday 🎂

For all of us, to make the most of the transit, lean into the sign’s core principles: weighing other people’s viewpoints, diplomacy, even-handedness. It’s a time for being drawn to beautiful art, people, places, and things.

So if you find yourself at the Louvre this month, marvelling for hours at the harmony of movement in “Diana of Versailles” , please thank this transit for that.

We’re officially in eclipse season now, and in keeping with the theme of big reveals, I’m so excited to announce my new book, Rise & Align, and its cover!

This one’s about ritual and magic, and how the days of the week are woven into astrology. It’s out the first day of Scorpio season, October 22nd, and no, I didn’t get to pick the date, but I’m thrilled it landed here: it’s got the Sun and Venus together in the sky applying to conjunction in mutual reception which is pretty epic, genuinely one of the best windows of the month. Thank you, Universe.

Preorders make a real difference, so as a thank you, anyone who buys the book before the Lunar Eclipse on August 28th will receive a free tarot reading 🔮,

Mercury’s still retrograde, and here’s my World Cup Astro favorite moments from the past few weeks. Feeling a big hole since it ended, ngl. Big comedown after an intense tournament.

Random observation: so many of the star players were summer babies, having their actual birthdays during the tournament. Yamal, Messi, Bellingham, Haland is tomorrow and Kane’s is in a few days. Summer babies must have some kind of athletic edge. I wouldn’t know, I’m a winter one.

If I’d known about astrology 19 years ago when Lamine Yamal was born, I would have made a talisman that day. What a chart, full of Royal Stars. He has two of the four Royal Stars sitting EXACTLY on top of his two luckiest planets. That’s exceptionally rare, and incredibly auspicious.

His Venus sits on Regulus, the Heart of the Lion. This is the star tied to the Nemean Lion myth, the beast Hercules couldn’t kill with any weapon because nothing could pierce its hide, only his bare hands. Medieval astrologers called Regulus the single most powerful star for glory a person could be born under.

His Jupiter sits on Antares, the Heart of the Scorpion. The Greeks called it “rival of Mars” because it burns as red as the war planet itself. Persian astrologers made it Guardian of the West. Its whole myth is success earned through fire, not luck, the kind of player who gets better the more the stakes go up. Stunning placements. And he’s a triple Cancer, Sun and Moon both, so incredibly sweet too. If you watched his interview about how he felt winning against Messi (really upset him) it’s very thoughtful and emotional.

Most satisfying Red Card ever yesterday. Enzo Fernández’s natal chart is pretty spicy. A Moon-Mars conjunction in Scorpio alone suggests a testy character, I mean, I could tell that without looking at his chart. His Mars is also the out-of-sect malefic, so extra amped up, competitive, libidinal, basically zero chill. Too territorial and aggressive (Moon in fall, next to Mars, in a day chart), all while playing sports at the highest level (Mars in rulership) in foreign lands (9th house). Sometimes astrology is too literal

Still gutted for England. Really thought they’d make it through, but that
