Let's just dive right in! I would suggest to read the whole week at once for the most insight. 

MONDAY - a GRAND WATER TRINE is activated. This is a rare moment of emotional coherence where insight, memory, intuition, and MATURATION flow together. Jupiter’s retrospection (retro in emotional Cancer) - collectively around home, family, security, roots - stirs something from the past that still wants to grow. Saturn gives it form/brings reality or authority into the situation. The Sun in Scorpio exposes the truth of what’s real/what’s ready. This is stabilizing tidal waters not chaotic stormy seas. It is nudging us toward healing choices and making deeper commitment.

TUESDAY - now Mercury retrograde is backing into Scorpio. We mentally dive BACK beneath the surface. Conversations re-visit sensitive territory, get more intense, might feel more life-and-death. Information re-surfaces. In Scorpio, our instincts (and sometimes our tongues) sharpen. The tone becomes investigative, interior, cuts to the bone, looks under the hood/covers. What we didn’t understand before begins to clarify.

WEDNESDAY - this looks more challenging, and it will end with that New Moon very, very early Thursday/late Wednesday (check your time zone), so let's unpack it:

Mercury in Scorpio opposes Uranus in Taurus - this is unexpected information/news/change of plans. A revelation, a plot twist, a sudden insight, a truth that breaks a stalemate. Uranus destabilizes Mercury’s probing in a way that can feel like the lights suddenly flipping on. Break-up. Breakdown. Breakthrough. Remember in some way we have been here BEFORE. 

Mercury trines Neptune in Pisces - both at 29 degrees - this is some kind of “threshold moment”. 29 degrees (the anaretic degree) is the degree of now or never, the Hail Mary pass, the last-chance correction, the resolution you thought might not come.

Sometimes we leap and land perfectly. Sometimes we realize we waited too long. Here is where our intuition or the information kicks in so loudly we can’t ignore it. This can also be a kind of 'release/letting go/letting God' after the disruption when we realize something is just out of our hands. 

Keep in mind - this is a thin-veil water transit - psychic knowing, deja vu, dream messages, uncanny timing. OUR INTUTION WILL NOT BE IGNORED. We came back to this 29th degree of deep/dark Scorpio for a reason. 

This takes us to THURSDAY, early AM EST when the Scorpio Moon finally catches up with the Scorpio Sun, giving us a very late New Moon. Alot is behind us and THEN we get this fresh start. This is a razor-sharp Scorpio New Moon, tightly conjunct our retrograde Mercury and directly opposing Uranus.

This lunation is a clearing point. It is a sudden reboot, a truth bomb, a purge, a new start forged from shock, revelation, or release. Maybe what we have discovered becomes the seed of the new cycle. Maybe what erupts is liberating. What has ended/transformed with the Mercury/Uranus creates a vacuum that SOMETHING TRUER CAN FILL. This New Moon isn't whispering. Think of it as cracking the shell so the intention can finally breathe.

FRIDAY is another big day. Now the Sun steps into the same electrical field Mercury touched earlier in the week. Maybe this is a SECOND JOLT or maybe here is where we are embodying what has already jolted us. Uranus exposes what has been too rigid or too controlled and he has returned to Taurus to shake up our values, our resources. Something wants to be freed from the underworld of Scorpio, so it can breathe in real time. Right after the shock comes the shimmer/release as the Sun then trines Neptune - again at 29 degrees. This softening/brakes-off helps meaning settle around whatever has been exposed. Our intuition and compassion are high. Our ancestors are right here with us now. Spiritual clarity or our imagination or creative vision begins to shape the chaos/change into something more coherent.

Then the Sun enters Sagittarius - Hallelujah - and just like that - things can feel better. Whatever is wanting to breathe is GETTING SOME AIR. It's fiery air, yes - WE ARE DRAGONS now :) 

The atmosphere flips from intense, investigative, inward Scorpio to adventurous, future-facing, optimistic Sagittarius. The story broadens. Hope returns. The need to move, express, expand, or seek truth becomes louder.

Scorpio to Sag is the shift from - “what’s underneath?” to “what's over there?”.

SATURDAY - now here is the SECOND GRAND WATER TRINE - wth is this, folks, does this week never end? as Mercury retrograde (so keep in mind is some way we have been here before) trines Saturn in Pisces and Jupiter in Cancer. This might be the integration moment, where the mind, memory, intuition, and emotional body finally agree on the same truth. 

So maybe what was confusing becomes structured or what was overwhelming becomes meaningful. 

Mercury’s retrograde trines suggest a resolution, a stabilizing insight, or a healing conversation arising from the week’s twists and eruptions. The water elements collaborate again, stitching together what had been frayed. This is the “I understand now” transit - the emotional clicking into place, one of Oprah's old 'aha' moments (if you are old enough to remember those) - after several days of intensity.

Alot of people in the news have planets and points in the zone this week, Epstein, President Joe Biden and Erika Kirk and Candace Owens come to mind. We will talk more about the collective stuff in the New Moon post.
